… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

London (AFP) - Prince William and his wife Kate showed off their new baby daughter to their loved ones on Sunday as they thanked people around the world for their messages of congratulations.

Among the well-wishers was William's brother Prince Harry, away serving with the Australian army, who said of the one-day-old princess: "She is absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to meet her."

As the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, their toddler son Prince George and the as yet unnamed baby spent their first full day back home after Saturday's birth, the newborn's grandparents came calling for a first kiss and cuddle.

William's father Prince Charles, the Prince of Wales, and his wife Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, went to see them at Kensington Palace, as did Kate's parents Michael and Carole Middleton, and her sister Pippa.

Uncle Harry will have to wait a while longer to see his niece. After completing his secondment with Australian army units in Perth and Sydney, he will undertake an official tour of New Zealand from May 9 to 16.

Britain is eagerly awaiting the name of the new princess, but Kensington Palace said there would be no further news Sunday.

Betting on the baby's name saw Charlotte overtake long-time front-runner Alice as the bookmakers' favourite, with Victoria, Olivia and Elizabeth close behind.

Landmarks lit in pink

"The duke and duchess are hugely grateful for the messages of congratulations they have received from people all over the world," a palace spokesman said.

"It means a great deal to them that so many people have celebrated the arrival of their new daughter.

"Their royal highnesses were today visited by the Prince of Wales, the Duchess of Cornwall, Mr and Mrs Middleton, and Pippa Middleton.

"Additionally Prince Harry has said about his new niece: 'She is absolutely beautiful. I can't wait to meet her'."

Most of Britain's Sunday newspapers carried big front-page pictures of the new baby with many running souvenir pullouts.

"Sleeping cutie," said both The Sun and the Sunday Mirror, with a close-up of the snoozing princess.

Tourism chiefs said the baby was expected to boost visitor numbers to London.

To mark the arrival, many of the capital's hotels and restaurants celebrated with regal-themed afternoon teas and London landmarks including Tower Bridge and the Trafalgar Square fountains were lit up in pink late Saturday.

William and Kate were expected to spend the next few days at Kensington Palace before travelling to Anmer Hall, their secluded 10-bedroom mansion on Queen Elizabeth II's Sandringham estate in Norfolk, eastern England.

The monarch was seen attending church there on Sunday, so it is likely she will meet her fifth great-grandchild at the private country residence.

Cheers from well-wishers

The new baby is fourth in line to the thrones of Britain and 15 other states including Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Jamaica.

The tiny princess is behind Queen Elizabeth's eldest son Charles, 66, his eldest son William and William's eldest child George in the line of succession.

However, the baby is the first major royal who cannot be overtaken by any future younger brothers following changes to the monarchy's rules to remove gender bias.

Kate gave birth within three hours of being admitted to St Mary's Hospital in central London on Saturday.

William was present for the birth at 8:34am (0734 GMT) and the princess weighed in at eight pounds and three ounces (3.7 kilogrammes).

William then brought George to the clinic to meet his little sister.

It was the first time since his own birth at the hospital in July 2013 that George had been seen at a public event in Britain.

A beaming William and Kate then left hospital carrying their newborn.

They were cheered by hundreds of well-wishers who had gathered outside the hospital's private Lindo Wing along with massed ranks of photographers.

The sleeping baby was wrapped in a woollen shawl as a relaxed-looking Kate cradled her in her arms.

Some royal "superfans", who camped outside the hospital for up to a fortnight to welcome the baby, finally packed up their belongings on Sunday.

Gun salutes will be fired across London on Monday to mark the birth.

Ireland's 'Singing Priest' becomes global sensation

Yahoo – AFP, Sunday, May 03, 2015


OLDCASTLE, Ireland - From an improvised studio in his house in a rural corner of Ireland, Father Ray Kelly has become a global singing sensation and new fans now mingle with long-time parishioners in his flock.

The 62-year-old clergyman's unexpected music career kicked off a year ago and now includes a platinum-selling album, 42 million YouTube hits and chat show appearances all across the world.

Twelve months ago, Kelly sang a version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah' during a wedding ceremony of an unsuspecting couple in his small parish of Oldcastle, 100 kilometres (62 miles) northwest of Dublin.

A video of the performance quickly became a viral hit. 
 
"From there it just escalated. The video has almost 42 million hits and is going up about 35,000 every day," Father Kelly told AFP in an interview in the parish house he shares with his two King Charles Spaniel dogs - Biddy and Buddy.

He soon found himself appearing on chat shows before Universal Music offered him a record deal.

"It's been mad," Kelly said.

"I never thought this would happen at this stage of my life. I was thinking of nearly retiring and now all of a sudden I've a music career." The album was recently released in the United States and this week will get its Australian launch.

There's now talk of a follow-up Christmas album.

Featuring Celtic, religious and pop songs, it was recorded over a two month period in a specially built studio in his home so as not interfere with his parish duties.

'Lifts the whole place'

Oldcastle is a quiet rural town close to one of Ireland's most mythical sites, the Boyne Valley, home to Neolithic passage tombs, monastic ruins and the seat of the old Irish High Kings.

Outside St Brigid's Church, Eileen O'Reilly said the whole town was delighted by Kelly's success.

"We all knew Father Kelly could sing from masses over the years. When he sings, it just lifts the whole place," she told AFP.

Kelly still sings at masses, and on a recent visit by AFP his rendition of "Amazing Grace" received a hearty applause.

Afterwards as Kelly walked from the church, a well-dressed woman stopped him at the door. "I've come all the way from England to see you." "I heard Father Kelly and thought he was excellent," Margaret Raw from Epsom in England said after posing for some photographs with Kelly.

"I'm over on holidays in Ireland and wanted to come see him. He has a wonderful voice." Last summer, American tourists would occasionally appear at masses to see him, Kelly said.

"They might fly into Dublin airport on Sunday morning and their first port of call was to Oldcastle for 11:30 mass then go off on their holidays but they wanted to meet me and hear me sing."

'Great for the Church'

In the 1970s before becoming a priest, Kelly had voice training and often took part in talent competitions in Dublin pubs.

He later appeared in local productions of musicals such as "Jesus Christ Superstar" and "Guys and Dolls".

Since the YouTube video went viral, he's been to Britain, Germany and the US promoting the album, even taking part in the New York St Patrick's Day parade last month.

Kelly said his bishop has been very "supportive and encouraging".

"People are telling me it's great for the Church and it's great for vocations and it's great to hear a positive story from the Church after all the negative stuff that happened in the past." In recent years, the Catholic Church in Ireland has been badly damaged by revelations about abuse and exploitation stretching back decades.

'No Lamborghini'

Despite strong sales and the occasional concert, Kelly has yet to receive any significant royalties.

"I'm still a normal parish priest in a small country town in Ireland and I'm quite happy doing that." He hopes to help a number of charities, as well as his 15 nieces and nephews, many of who have fallen foul of Ireland's economic crash.

"Some of them have big mortgages after buying houses in boom times and are now in negative equity. Please God I'll be able to help them somewhere along the road.

"As for myself, there'll be no Lamborghini outside the church or a yacht."



"This Is Not Your Father’s New Age" – (Kryon Channelling by Lee Carroll)

Kryon.com, February 14, 2015

This live channelling was Given in Atlanta, Georgia

Lee Carroll
To help the reader, this channelling has been revisited [by Lee and Kryon] to provide even clearer understanding. Sometime information is even added. Often what happens live has implied energy within it, which carries a kind of communication that the printed page does not. So enjoy this enhanced message given in Atlanta Georgia, February 14, 2015.

Greetings, dear ones, I am Kryon of Magnetic Service. Twenty-five years ago, I discussed with you what is happening now. Back then, it was only a potential, but now it's your reality. This was not prophecy when I told you back then that there would be no Armageddon or World War Three. It was not prophecy, but a powerful potential. The entire reason for my being and the awakening of my partner was because of what you did. The victory it contains falls in the lap of the old soul, who has controlled the consciousness of the timing of it all.

Everything that has transpired during these years has been realized potential. That is to say that we see the potentials of what you might do, and report on that and only that. Much of what we see now is realized quickly. When we told you in 2012 there would be a new pope, 13 months later it happened. This was not prophecy, but rather a potential. We saw it coming because we have the overview and we knew of the anxiety of the existing pope, the health of the man, and we also knew of the potentials of a South American pope to come forward. All of these things should be a "connect the dots" for you. I come yet again, not with prophecy, but with information given with a congratulatory attitude of potential.

A real "new energy" is here.

Twenty-five years ago, I would have loved to have given you this channel, but you weren't ready. Now you sit in the energy we had predicted back then and are wise to what has happened. Right now, if you could superimpose Human emotion upon the creative source, it would be the attributes of delight and adulation - perhaps even the word proud. Dear Human Being, this is not your father's new age. We celebrate you for coming to this place in time!

This is critical information we give now, because in an assemblage like this, the ones who are listening and reading are warriors of light and old souls. These terms describe a Human Being who has been through history and has embraced esoteric belief for dozens of lifetimes. Many of you have awakened in this life to innate wisdom of spirituality. You have fought the battles of the old energy as a Lightworker many times, and you have become used to the way things work in an older energy. For thousands of years, the planet has not changed all that much, so you might have been involved in the same kind of dark-light battles over and over and, therefore, etched into your Akash are what we would call the spiritual rules of existence. However, now they're changing. So this message is for Lightworkers and old souls, and it includes some attributes we have talked about in the past, and also some new ones. Tonight we bring you some positive things that you need to know in this energy and some attributes that some would call admonitions of how to work in the new energy.

We started this conversation last week in the city you call Austin [Texas],* so let us begin from there. Dear ones, this new energy is a phrase you have heard for years. You were told, "The new age is upon you, and the new energy is arriving." Dear ones, it has arrived! Now it's starting to plant its seeds, and the attributes are very different from what you have experienced while you were waiting for it. You should know that shamanic energies in the old souls who are listening and reading are going to find some of these things difficult, even controversial. This is because they go against the spiritual habits experienced in the past, which worked and which were correct and proper for many. So let us begin where we left off.

Dear ones, please acknowledge the idea that when you graduate from one energy level to another, the lessons are learned, and the processes are then changed and advanced to a new level. It would be foolish for you to carry the same old lessons you completed from the past into the future. Yet many of you are trying to do that very same thing right now.

Review from Austin

Number one is a review. We told you that your light quotient, a metaphor for your awareness and your wise consciousness, is at a higher and lighter energy than it ever has been before. This is possible because of the predicted and positive changes we told you were coming [within all the Kryon books], including the realignment of the magnetic grid (2002) and other esoteric grids on the planet. Many very new tools are upon you and new ways of working this puzzle are waiting to be discovered.

Dear ones, if you go into these new energies with an old procedure, you're going to be disappointed. Last week in Austin, we started this premise: You now carry so much light, that you can stop dealing with negativity in the old way. You no longer have to consider what you might call clearing dark energies in the room or around you. This is hard for you to consider, since many of you do this automatically! Let me remind you of what was needed in an older energy. Prior to a meeting or a meditation, you might need to clear the energy of negativity. You would smudge the area, pray over it, and put light into it. If you found a negative person or anything that you thought would interrupt the flow of purity of love, you might even stop and work with that one silently until you got results. You would have your own way of creating the light you needed and clearing the darkness that you knew was there. Now we are saying change this. Why? Can't you feel why? This is the real question. Are you not aware that things are different? Don't continue to use your umbrella when the sun has come out! Understand you have changed the energy of everything around you.

In this newly provided energy, you are carrying so much light that your presence in the room won't allow darkness. Period! This is energy that finally knows who you are! Your presence alone is enough to clear it. Think about it. Your light is so great that it will permeate everything. Don't you feel it? Now, this is new, so you need to hear it in context with the actions of a new-age, esoteric person. Darkness will run from you!

Some of you love to do ceremony, which looks like clearing. Go ahead, but know that it's not necessary to clear, since you are there and your presence alone has done it. So instead, think of it as "patterning". Instead of clearing the negative, put into the room the new pattern of energy that you wish to create. Now, again this is controversial because you might say, “Look at all of those people who might be negative in a place like this. Think of all the meetings in the past that have been held in a place like this. We must clear this past energy which has attached itself to the area.” And we say, “No you don't. Not anymore.” If a master walked into this room, would you stop and clear it? The answer is no. The master clears it! You understand? This is the lineage that is yours and that you worked for. Claim it. Go for it. You don't have to clear it. That is what we said on a Sunday one week ago in Austin [Texas].*

For the Healer - New Energies

Number two: Tonight is going to be for the healer. There are many listening to my voice now and reading later. Healer, what is the process you are used to? If you did clearing before, you don't have to now. Get used to it. Your presence, next to the one on the table or the chair, is enough to chase away all negativity. Now, the one in the chair may have fear, but it doesn't affect you anymore. You don't have to put on esoteric armor of any kind to shield you from your clients. This is new. You carry a countenance that is so grand and so beautiful and pure that nothing is going to get through. Nothing! I just wanted you to know this. Again, did the masters go through clearing ceremonies before performing their miracles? No!

Now, as normal, your clients can indeed create their own negativity, their own unbelief and their own fear. That's not going to change. But how they affect you already has. Now, here is something we have not said before. There is an evolutionary process going on with Human consciousness that literally affects many Human Beings in ways they are not aware of. We have spoken of the innate before.** This is the spiritual smart body, the part of the body you muscle-test to communicate. However, innate is beginning to change.

Listen, if the Human Being, through free choice, has decided not to build a conscious bridge to innate and knows nothing about it, that's his/her own issue. But innate is changing in all Humans regardless, not just Lightworkers. That is to say that spiritual awareness will become a higher vibration instantly, if a person wants it. Humans may go all their lives without ever acknowledging their innate, and this is their free choice. But should they look, or try to build the bridge to innate, the energy will be higher than the time you did it! Again, this is total free choice. But more are being naturally led to question their existence.

Now let me tell you what this means and what to look for. Dear Human healer, you stand or sit in front of your client, and they may be the strongest unbeliever there is, but their innate is still active - even if they don't know it. Your gift as a healer is to facilitate the "energy of self-healing". Even this is starting to change, for you are now posturing them to get in touch with their own innate. This is what helps them to heal themselves. You are going to start seeing certain things almost instantly that you have not seen before. One of them is a natural interest in the esoterics of life, the beginning of the question, "Who am I?"

Now, in order to make this process go even faster, I wish to give you a procedure that many of you are already doing intuitively. I want you to have the person on your table or chair, shut their eyes for a moment and answer one question. Have the person answer out loud. Some of you already know the question. You're going to ask this: “Do you give permission for the healing?” They must answer verbally, and a nod is not good enough. If they answer with pure intent and not just "go with the flow", their innate has permission to talk to you. This is where profound healing is going to start to occur. You will be astonished at how well this works in this new energy, and how your ability as a healer is increased! Dear Human Being, your light will not let negativity occur in your session. Get rid of the idea that you have to protect yourself. Not anymore. Your light is pushing out to such a degree that it won't be necessary. That's for the healers, all of you, for anyone who is doing any healing work at all can have this happen. Remember this question in your sessions.

The New "Listening" Body

Number three: There'll never be a time in Human history that is more profound than this one, when it comes to how the body is listening to what you are saying. There is a process, and always has been, where the cells of the body are on alert to what the boss - you - wants. For years, we have been asking you to talk to your body, talk to your cellular structure. Now we're going to tell you that it's listening, even when you don't realize what you're automatically saying! It's now listening 24-7. So what are you saying to it?

This is now a time where negative dialogue will have more personal influence on you than ever before. Think about what you are saying in life as you move around socially. What is your attitude when you say it, and how often do you say it? Your body is listening. Dear Lightworker, part of your spiritual evolution is that the body, the innate, is now aware of everything. Now, you may say, “Well, that's nice.” It's more than nice; it's profound! If you don't listen to this and understand it, you will keep you aging in the same old way you have. This is why we have spoken of affirmations more than ever before. This is far more than just positive thinking. Every time you open your mouth, you have the potential to give instructions to your body, and it listens to you when you talk to it. Unfortunately, your habits are to tell your body that you are unworthy!

I want you to think about what you're saying. When somebody asks you about your health, about your spirituality, about your intent, or about your aging, do you say the words, “I am working on it. I am trying”? The result is the cells of your body say, "Well, she's working on it - she is trying," but (implied), "She doesn't have it yet." I want you to listen to yourself when you talk. Are you giving "less than" messages to your own body?

Perhaps I've said enough, but almost every single one of you comes from a culture that is proud of demeaning itself in some way. It's an old habit from old ways that are supposed to represent a gracious countenance. Someone wants to give you a gift or celebrate your birthday. How many of you automatically say, "You shouldn't have"? Do you realize that your actions and words are saying, “I don't deserve it" to your own innate? Your actions say, “I am unworthy.” Don't you think your body hears this or sees it? It does. It is time to get out of the unworthy closet, Lightworker! You are alive with God inside! Don't be afraid or ashamed to proclaim, “I am healthy, I am healed, I am youthing, I am in charge of the situation.” Not, “I'm working on it” or, “I'm trying.” That tells your body that it may happen someday, but not today. That's the difference. “I am worthy of happiness. I am worthy of a peaceful situation in my life. I am worthy of a solution in my life.”

When someone wants to give you a gift or celebrate your birthday, automatically say, "Thank you for this wonderful gift!" Your innate will hear, "I am worthy of this gift of appreciation from others." Then love them for it.

The Changing of Meditation and Other Spiritual Attributes

Number four: Meditation. It's changing. First, there will start to appear younger specialists who society doesn't feel are old enough to be shamanic. However, their Akash is, since they are remembering. They are awakening to times when they did this all the time. Therefore, the number of years you have been on Earth in this life will become secondary to the number of lifetimes you have on Earth. You must be able to see and discern this. So the first thing is this: No longer assign eldership attributes to the old. Assign them to the wise.

But the main change is how you see meditation and the "rules" of it. Meditation is going to start departing from the old rules of who, how and how much. Dear ones, with this new amount of light that you carry and with your busy schedules, just being in Spirit every single day is a meditation. It's hard for you to measure this, since it's no longer a linear 3D clock issue. It's a multidimensional communication issue.

Not all of you are supposed to do the same thing with meditation. Is this a shock? The esoteric belief system that you have is not one thing for everyone. It is not generic. It honors the individual's life path. You are becoming specialists in spirituality because your Akash is starting to come alive. How old you are on Earth, where you came from and what you did will guide what you do in this life to a greater degree than ever before. There will be many young people who will come alive with meditation. Watch for this. They will do it for hours, and it may not be your way. You might say that they're carrying the meditative load for you.

This is new on the planet and it's especially new as many of the young people will feel it first. Expect that even they will not agree among themselves on how to do it. It's a new energy for them and their peers. One will do it differently than another. But many will be meditation warriors, with a big M on their chests. [smile] Some of you will see it and you will shake your head and say, “That isn't for me,” and Spirit will be on your shoulder saying, “Thank you for seeing this, old wise person.” It's for them. What we have for you instead is compassionate living, walking day by day in difficult situations, and creating a passionate countenance with compassion with lack of anger. This is practical and represents all the things we've talked about for a very old, advanced soul. The work that you're going to be doing will be different from theirs. They are "beginning old souls" and now we're getting into specialization. Don't be surprised when basic spiritual work is not the same for everyone. Does it make sense that you are vastly different in your life's path? Then honor that premise with no "common doctrine for all". There is no "right and wrong" for meditation. It's what feels correct for your life and your life's work.

Dear ones, some of you are shaking your heads and saying, “Well, does that mean we are not supposed to meditate?” How linear can you get? I want you to be comfortable. I want you to understand this. Human Beings want higher authority to tell them what to do and how to do it. That is starting to change. Can't you feel it? Get out of the mold of looking for validation from a higher authority. The greatest authority is the creative seed in YOU. Your intuition is going to give you the answer to the most demanding questions of life.

Your intuition will tell you how long to meditate, if at all, and what to do when you do it. You don't have to turn to somebody and say, “Is this okay?” or "Is there a book?" Those days are over. Dear ones, yes there will be leaders in the esoteric community, but they are advisors in wisdom and not spiritual dictators. Let them lead with their love and compassion, not with information and rules on how you are supposed to live your life. Let them lead with examples of how empowered you are, and not with rules or what to do or how to do it, or a doctrine that is the same for everyone. Let the "what, why, how much and when" come from the creative source inside you. If you can do this, you'll be right for the attributes in life that are just for you, not the masses. That leads us to number five.

Change - Not That Comfortable

Number Five: In basic numerology, the number five represents change. I want you to acknowledge, be comfortable with, and accept change that is chemical in your body. I want you to honor, acknowledge, and accept change that is psychological in your body. Your Akash is going to start delivering to you some very different and wise information as your vibration starts to increase. You're going to find that who you thought you were may change. Habits, good and bad, may drop away. Good and bad. In the process, the Human Being may go into fear. Isn't that interesting? Why would change in a new energy for old souls cause fear?

Every single time there's a shift in what people are used to, Humans get afraid. So we are asking for a change in perception and a wise rewrite in Human nature. I would like you to start welcoming change in your life and see it in a positive way. No matter what. This will realign you to the energy of a new earth so you can survive and stay alive! This is how important it is.

You're going to get new habits, perceived as good and bad, and they are going to come right out of your increasingly active Akash. Many will worry about it and say, “Now where did that come from?”  You're going to love the good ones and question the others. Now, the good ones may come in ways that drop old, bad habits and cravings, and also greatly affect what you want to eat. A major change in diet may shock and surprise you, and you can lose weight or gain weight as desired. Whatever you've asked for which is most healthy for your body will seem to be "taking over" your cells.

The Akash is starting to align itself with "multiple cultural lifetime events". This term represents how many lifetimes you have been in a culture where you ate or lived a certain way. This becomes the chemistry that your body wants now. How about that? This would be instead of fast food or normal food shopping. How about that? So, how many of you are going to go with it or go into fear with it? What I want you to do is relax and let Spirit start to build the new Human within you. Do you know what we have called this? It's a process nobody expected: Ascension while alive. This is you passing into the next energy while you're alive - a process that took reincarnation before. Are you hearing what I'm saying? In the past you had to die, come back, and realign in order to do what now we are saying you can do while you sit there. That is, if you won't be afraid of it.

You're innate has got to be reprogrammed. We told you this before and now you're doing it through affirmations, positive thoughts and by the actions you are now changing [compassionate action]. Innate is used to an old idea that reincarnation is the engine for enlightenment. You must die and come back in order to take advantage of what you learned, but now you don't. This is new. We gave you a channelling before that spoke about it.**

I want you to think of it this way. How many of you have felt like you have been in trouble for the last couple of years? This varies from life threatening to uncomfortable spiritual changes to feeling different. I want you now to have the fortitude to celebrate the problems! You've just been realigned, dear Human Being. Maybe you've been realigned and you're picking up things from the past that will make you healthier and live longer. What if you spent hundreds of years in a culture and only a few years in this one? Don't you think your cellular structure wants the most comfortable attributes - the old foods more? If you say yes, you're going to see chemical changes in your body to accommodate the new Human. This is a Human who has the Akash starting to be felt. Spiritual evolution has begun.

These are changes that no medicine would be able to accomplish. It has to do with basic health. What's in your blood? Have you had a blood test lately? You're going to find that even that may have changed. Oh, your blood type hasn't changed, but the balance of other attributes did because of what you're eating.

Now here's what I want to tell you about these things that is important. If these things are too large, some of you are feeling them profoundly and you're worried about them. What have I told you about fear? Fear stops light. Do you really want to stop this process of change? It's everything you have lived for, and it's happening because you are alive in these new times.  If you wish to continue, the answer, dear ones, is stop fearing the light that is you. Understand that an energy that you didn't expect is here. That was number five.

The Time Capsules and Planetary Evolution

Number six: Six is a divine number. It refers to the Higher-Self and many other attributes that speak of a spiritual system with appropriateness and compassion. The time capsules of this planet are opening and starting to deliver to you a great amount of fast-tracking energy of spiritual evolution that can't be explained yet. If you ask, "What are they?" The answer is, "Yes." We have spoken of this before as well.***

Dear ones, the wisdom of the ancients told you that you cannot as yet define the master number 44 in numerology and master numbers beyond it. The reason is because you do not have the consciousness yet to understand what they are. You don't know what you don't know. If you can accept this, and can understand that there are things not yet knowable, then you're going to be fine with number six.

The time capsules from the ancient ones who seeded you are opening because you passed the marker of 2012. They pour their multidimensional attributes into the grids of the planet [the Magnetic Grid - Crystalline Grid - Gaia Grid]. They pour new energy of life through fast-track evolution. All this is picked up first by the old soul, and the things that I have covered - one through five - are facilitated by that. They are catalytic energies that you don't know about yet, which will eventually be responsible for evolved thought and increased wisdom. Years from now you will even have names for them in psychology.

These things all have to do with common sense and wisdom. However, more than that, a kind of knowing will start to occur that eventually humanity will accept as "the way of it", and they will call it new Human nature. Compassion will increase and change what the public wants to watch in movies, television and on the Internet. Increased wisdom will slowly show itself. The propensity for maturity and peace on Earth has begun. As described before, the old energy of the planet will fight it to the end, trying to keep the old ways alive. The old ways will lose, and old energy will not reincarnate as old. Slowly, it will be eliminated, just like grade school was eliminated from your personal life as you moved on.

The propensity for health and long life will blossom, and much will be revealed and changed to allow this. Spiritual awareness for the masses will come much later, as common sense of the Human race begins to "connect the dots". I told you this would be difficult, since many of you have seen the future as some kind of spiritual explosion. It won't be. It will be a common sense slow awareness change that will lead to other awareness. This is the way it works.

An energy that goes around the planet will eventually become how you think and will change humanity to a lighter, higher vibrating group of souls. In the process, poverty and disease will diminish, social issues will become more balanced, tolerance will be at a new higher level, and new invention will make survival much easier. None of this will have anything to do with perceived spirituality. Not yet.

So, here will sit the atheist and the agnostic who will know about longer life, peace on Earth and compassion. Yet they won't associate it with anything from the "outside". This is because, for them, it will be intellectual, intuitive and the way it is. They will call it new advanced Human nature, and they won't know where it came from. Not yet. The intellectuals will look back on history and say we had the barbaric age until 2012, when Humans started to become wiser. In 100 years, you'll look back and see a humanity that was far, far different and far more violent. Sociologists will add a new level of growth to their chart, for it will signal a change in thinking that hadn't ever been seen before. It will be seen as the end of Human immaturity and the beginning of a wiser humanity. But for a long time, there will be no consensus on "God inside". Instead, there will be more tolerance between belief systems.

But you and I will know the reason for the changes. The time capsules are opening and they are pouring to you the energy of a catalytic realignment of consciousness. It comes from your seed parents the Pleiadians, who have love for you beyond measure, like a parent would have for a child, but vastly different. The pride they have of you passing the marker, watching you go through the gyrations of dark and light, is familiar. For it's what they did. They have watched how you deal with that which is still dark on your planet, and how much your heart hurts at what you see and the death that is there. They are silent, for free choice is yours alone on how fast to change the planet, and you are working the puzzle, as they did.

The knowingness that all things recycle, and the appropriateness of lessons learned, will give you greater wisdom. All of this is pouring into the grids right now. It's hard to talk about this because you don't know what you don't know. Your seed parents have seen it and they know where it is going, and they're breathless, watching you open the door to what they also experienced.

This is going to take a while, but you opened the door, and as time goes on, you're going to have a revelation of what it's all about. You wonder why I am Kryon, in love with humanity? I just told you, because I've seen it before. So have the others - Orion, Arcturian and other names that you've heard before. They have all been through it; all watching you now; all celebrating your life right now. Some of you will understand and know I'm right, and others will walk out tonight, or get up from their chairs, and have this information barely perceived or not at all. That's free choice and it's honored; it's honored so much, for all of you. There is no judgment from Spirit. If you walk away and you think this was a nice meeting and nothing more, you have the same number of angelic beings walking out the door with you that the healer for centuries does, or that the shaman does. Each Human is created equal. This means that all of you have the same spiritual potential - the realization of Creator inside. That is the message for the day. Oh, Human Being, this is not your father's new age. It's your new age.

Britain’s Scandal-Battered Banks Paralyzed as Election Looms

Whatever the outcome of Britain’s election next week, the outlook for the country’s banks is worsening.

Almost seven years since the industry received the biggest taxpayer bailout in history, public confidence in banks is near an all-time low and lenders’ efforts to boost profit are being frustrated by investigations into alleged currency and interest rate-rigging. Since the coalition government took power in 2010, UK bank stocks have lost 7 percent. Their US counterparts have returned 46 percent.

“You can hardly believe we are now seven years into this crisis, and we’ve still got billions in fines to come and virtually none of the major banks predicting decent returns for at least another three to four years,” said Ed Firth, head of European bank research at Macquarie Group. “If you told us that in 2007, we just wouldn’t have believed it.”

The industry’s prospects look to be getting worse as both major political parties distance themselves from the City, London’s financial district, before the May 7 election. The Bank of England is preparing harsher stress tests this year that may force firms to bolster capital buffers and new rules require expensive firewalls to be created around consumer operations. A levy on banks’ balance sheets has been increased eight times since 2010.

Tarnished bankers

UK taxpayers sunk about 1 trillion pounds ($1.5 trillion) into banks in 2008 and 2009 to prop up the nation’s failing system, and still own 79 percent of money-losing Royal Bank of Scotland Group and a fifth of Lloyds Banking Group. Before the election, the tarnished reputation of the industry has taken another battering with HSBC Holdings embroiled in allegations it aided tax evasion. The Asian-focused lender said last week it may leave London because of rising tax and regulatory costs and Standard Chartered may join them.

The banks remain unloved by the taxpayers who saved them: 68 percent of Britons said it would be good or would make no difference if lots of bankers left the country, according to a survey by polling company YouGov in November. Seventy-three percent want to see bankers’ bonuses capped.

The UK’s four largest banks face 19 billion pounds more in misconduct charges in the two years through 2016, according to Standard & Poor’s. In the five years to 2014, about 7.5 percent of their revenue, or 42 billion pounds, was swallowed by charges for wrongdoing.

Earnings decline

This week’s earnings reports show how the past continues to haunt the banks. Barclays set aside almost 1 billion pounds and RBS another 434 million pounds to settle allegations they rigged currency benchmarks and for selling consumers payment- protection insurance they didn’t need or that didn’t cover them. Meanwhile, Standard Chartered’s first-quarter pretax profit fell 22 percent, with all but one division reporting lower earnings. Lloyds reports on Friday and HSBC next week.

“Conduct and litigation charges are now a way of life for the U.K. banking industry,” said Nigel Greenwood, a credit analyst at S&P. “Some form of charge seems probable every year for the larger banks.”

Britain’s Labor Party is seeking to capitalize on bankers’ enduring bad reputation by pledging a new tax on bonuses to pay for a youth employment program and to increase the levy on banks’ balance sheets. The industry scarcely fared better in George Osborne’s March budget, which boosted the bank levy and barred them from deducting customer compensation from taxable profit, costing the industry 5.3 billion pounds over five years.

Shrinking industry

The UK is introducing some of the world’s toughest rules on financial conduct, including jailing senior bankers for “reckless misconduct” that contributes to a firm’s collapse, as it attempts to focus accountability on individuals, a source of public anger.

The industry is smaller and less profitable than before the crisis. Together, the banks have eliminated 193,828 jobs and cut 1.82 trillion pounds of assets since 2008, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. The leadership at all five banks has changed since the crisis, twice at RBS.

“The regulations continue to change, capital requirements continue to go up and conduct charges continue. There’s no sign of the end,” said Stephen Carter, co-head of financial institutions for Europe, Middle East and Africa at Credit Suisse Group, who advised the UK government on the bailout in 2008. “If the level of capital that’s being held in the banking sector is roughly double what it was pre-crisis, by definition the returns have gone down.”

Profit declines

None of the major British lenders were able to make a return-on-equity of more than 8 percent in 2014, the data show. The average ROE was 17.7 percent in 2007.

After profitability at Barclays, Standard Chartered and HSBC declined in 2014, the three reduced their ROE targets, citing increased regulation, greater capital requirements and high funding costs.

Lloyds and HSBC are the only major UK banks trading above its book value, indicating investors see the other three as worth less than they would receive if the company failed and liquidated its assets.

UK banks’ “problems were deeper than the market realized, most expectations were for a five-year job, but here we are seven years and counting,” said Chris White, who helps oversee about 3.2 billion pounds at Premier Asset Management in Guildford, England. “Banks couldn’t write off everything on day one as their balance sheets wouldn’t have survived, so they’ve stretched out liabilities over a period of time, yet still there’s more work to be done.”

CEOs replaced

Investors have pressured bank boards to replace top executives as the share prices suffered. RBS has fallen 14 percent this year, almost completely erasing its gains in 2014. Standard Chartered plummeted 29 percent last year, followed by a 10 percent drop at Barclays.

Standard Chartered replaced Chief Executive Officer Peter Sands, 53, with former JPMorgan Chase & Co. banker Bill Winters, also 53, and overhauled its board, as it tries to reverse two years of falling profits. It may still need to issue shares to bolster capital, analysts say, and the bank is monitored by the US after breaching a ban on transactions in Iran.

The Asia-focused lender is just the latest to change bosses. RBS has had two new CEOs since 2007, with retail banker Ross McEwan, 57, now in charge. Barclays also picked a consumer banker, Oxford-educated Antony Jenkins, to take over from Robert Diamond in August 2012 after the Libor-rigging scandal.

RBS’s outlook

RBS was meant to have returned to private ownership by last October, according to transcripts of meetings of the Bank of England policy makers that arranged the lender’s bailout. RBS Chairman Philip Hampton, 61, similarly predicted in May 2013 the government would be able to start reducing its stake in 2014.

Instead, the lender, recipient of a 45.5 billion-pound rescue, had its seventh straight annual loss in 2014. In March, it finally gave up its ambitions to be a global bank, and may cut as many as 14,000 investment-banking jobs to refocus on the UK consumer market, according to a person with knowledge of the matter. It had another loss in the first quarter, and the stock still trades below the government’s break-even price, where taxpayers would at least get their money back.

Lloyds progresses

Lloyds, Britain’s biggest mortgage lender, comes the closest to a success story, returning to profit after five years of losses and planning to resume dividend payments. The turnaround comes with an asterisk: It has paid 12 billion pounds to compensate clients for improperly sold payment protection insurance and is still about 20 percent owned by the government that spent more than 20 billion pounds to save it.

Banks also have to contend with new rules forcing them to separate their consumer banks from riskier trading businesses to protect depositors. The move may make investment banking operations untenable for the industry, according to Bill Michael, head of Europe, Middle East and Africa financial services for KPMG in London.

“The fundamental problem with the entire debate post- crisis is that we’ve been unable to separate our response to protecting depositors and taxpayers from other banking activities and it’s paralyzing for the industry,” Michael said. “The sector is still at an inflexion point and won’t look like anything it does now in three to four years because none of these banks’ models are sustainable.”

Russia, China launch joint exercise in Mediterranean

Geng Yansheng, the spokesperson of the Chinese ministry of defense confirmed that the People's Liberation Army Navy and the Russian Navy will launch joint naval exercises in the Mediterranean Sea later this month, according to our sister newspaper, Want Daily.

Among the nine vessels which will participate in the exercise, known as Joint Sea 2015, three warships are from the PLA Navy's 19th escort task force currently patroling the waters of the Gulf of Aden. Those ships include the Weishanhu, a Type 903 replenishment ship, the Linyi and the Weifang, two Type 054A guided-missile destroyers according to Geng. He said that the joint exercise is not being carried out with any third nation in mind and has nothing to do with the political developments in the region.

The exercise is being launched to help China and Russia to gain the experience both nations need to face potential maritime threats in the future, Geng said. Like the military parade held in Moscow to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, which Xi Jinping will attend personally, it is aimed at strengthening the military-to-military relationship between China and Russia, according to the report.

Chang Ching, a researcher from Taiwan's Society for Strategic Studies said that the exercise is not the first time that the PLA Navy has deployed its ships to the Mediterranean Sea. He said that China deployed the Linyi to Yemen to evacuate its citizens from the war-torn nation earlier this year. He said that the exercise should also be considered part of China's military diplomacy because its vessels may visit countries in the region after the exercises.

French wrote to thank UN worker for disclosing abuse by troops

Authorities sent letter to whistleblower Anders Kompass, who faces dismissal from UN for leaking report into claims of child abuse by French troops in Africa

French authorities sent a letter of thanks to the UN whistleblower who passed on details of the alleged of abuse of children by its troops in Africa, the Guardian can reveal.

The official, Anders Kompass, has been suspended by the UN and faces dismissal for what the organisation says is a “breach of protocols” in releasing a confidential internal UN document.

Sources close to the case say Kompass, director of field operations for the Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights in Geneva, disclosed the report to the French because of the UN’s failure to act quickly to stop the abuse identified in their own internal report.

Hinting that the allegations represented just a fraction of what had taken place, a UN spokesman said on Friday “it is possible, it’s horribly possible” that more allegations of sexual abuse of children by French and other soldiers in the Central African Republic could come to light.

As Kompass fights for his job, it emerged on Friday that the French were grateful for the disclosure of the report detailing interviews with children as young as eight or nine who describe sexual abuse at the hands of its peacekeepers.

The French mission was not under the direct control of the UN, but run by the French authorities. The abuse was identified by the UN in an internal report commissioned after reports on the ground that children were being abused.

The letter from the French expressed gratitude for Kompass’s actions. It read: “Dear director, Thank you for the information you have shared with my government concerning Operation Sangaris in the Central African Republic.

“The information is receiving the full attention of the authorities. Given the seriousness of the allegations and the necessity to check the veracity of them, it was immediately decided to launch a judicial inquiry which will determine what subsequent steps will be taken, including possible criminal proceedings. In addition, a command disciplinary investigation has been ordered without delay, under the responsibility of the defence staff.”

The letter, signed by the French permanent representative in Geneva, was sent to Kompass at his UN office on 30 July last year, shortly after he sent the report to the French mission.

It is understood the letter was logged in the OHCHR official correspondence register on 5 August – suggesting his employers were aware of his actions.

Eight months later, however, Kompass was told he was being suspended and was under investigation for breaching strict protocols on the release of confidential information.

The UN has failed to say when or if it officially passed on the report detailing the sexual exploitation of the children to the French for them to take action.

On Friday the OHCHR repeated its assertion that Kompass was not a whistleblower but had “breached strict protocols.”

The UN spokesman said: “This investigation concerns the manner in which confidential information, and especially the identities of child victims and witnesses, as well as of the investigators, was communicated to external actors in possible breach of strict rules that exist to protect victims, witnesses and investigators.”

On Thursday, the French president, François Hollande, promised to show “no mercy” if the allegations against French troops were found to be true.

As the investigation by the French continued, Bea Edwards, of the Government Accountability Project, which provides advocacy for whistleblowers, said the UN was wrong to say Kompass was not a whistleblower.

Under their own protocols, she said, his actions were a whistleblower disclosure to law enforcement about abuse by troops authorised by UN Security Council Resolution 2127 to deploy to the CAR.

“His transmission of criminal allegations to French authorities meets the conditions permitting the external disclosure of wrongdoing,” said Edwards. “These include that the allegations represented violations of international law, as well as an imminent and ongoing danger to the public health and safety and that there was no personal benefit accrued to the whisteblower.”
