Well the Spiritual Metaphor in the Movies just keeps stacking up. Have you seen the new Divergent film "Insurgent" yet? Like a raft of similar movies in the vein of Hunger Games, it speaks of a deeply divided world, controlled and suppressed, but with courageous souls breaking through and breaking out. The divine is deeply active here on the planet right now, and is using all manner of ways in which to speak. New Media is clearly one of the main channels.

• So what can we glean from this movie? How might it help all evolving souls?...

The Meat and Diary industry is the single most cause of global greenhouse gas emissions, bigger than all others put together (source...cowspiracy). In it's voracious appetite for grazing land, it is devouring forests at an astronomical rate. According to greenpeace, the oceans are acidifying at their fastest for 300 million years, the meat and dairy industry is probably the greatest contributor. But even more importantly, it is an industry that is brutally inhumane. In many ways, you are being what you eat: you are consuming energy - consciousness - and if that's been pumped full of steroids, hormones, antibiotics, all infused with a debilitating cocktail of control and fear, then that's what you're pumping into your field. I put it to you, it is most definitely NOT something to support spiritual evolution. Quite the contrary...

It is absolutely NOT Openhand's purpose to spread fear with regards to the very challenging situation Humanity is beginning to face. Quite the contrary, in confronting the truth of what's really going on, we can confront those limiting fears that may hold back our evolution. Living in some kind of la la land, simply does not work in the long run. Climate change - and the Ascension of Gaia - is accelerating into what appears to be (amongst many other things) a growing global fresh water crisis. Be informed, overcome any fear of what is going on, see the overall Great Realignment that's taking place, and unleash your soul from attachment and distortion in the physical...

Ginger is a well loved, tried and tested, flavoursome spice that has been revered for a myriad of health benefits throughout the aeons. It is mentioned in ancients texts and has been prized by many different cultures as long as mankind can remember. Ginger is zingy and warming, with a distinctive zesty flavour and aroma. It comes in yellow, white and red varieties; we use the underground rhizome part of the plant...

These spiritual films keep coming thick and fast. No wonder, we're sailing through extraordinary times; humanity has an extraordinary tale to reveal. No matter that the mainstream keeps selling the lie, the truth is bubbling up in our consciousness and won't be deterred. Movies and media have evolved the age-old art of story telling, where parable and metaphor convey truth so exquisitely for those tuned into their feelings. Yes it's dramatical and fantastical, but so is the human story. "Jupiter Ascending" is another in a long line where you can glean some missing pieces of the jigsaw...

Is Your Town a "Transition Town?" It's an organisation led by concerned individuals that we really need to prepare ourselves for Peak Oil and the breakdown of civilisation; that we need to become more self-sustaining. As resources become increasingly challenged, rather than being hopelessly exposed to the global supply chain, we need to be more resilient and connected locally. There's precious little support for this philosophy by governments, so ordinary people are getting on with it themselves: forming cooperatives, sharing ideas and skills, low impact building, sourcing energy locally, of course growing our own food, bartering, but even going to the extent of establishing local currencies. It's time to inform ourselves and prepare for change...

Increasingly, people are investigating and writing about an Opposing Consciousness in the field that influences people and society. It's a difficult subject to write about; a taboo area that pushes lots of buttons. And many will challenge its presence at all, because you have to be expanded into the field to see and feel interdimensional entities. But now sensitives all over the world are reporting about the phenomenon. It seems the tide is turning; it needs to, if future human generations are to be free. Specifically I felt to address the most vulnerable in society - our children - and what we can do about them. How can we work to nullify the intervention effects?...

Metaphor in the Movies It seems there's a plethora of great movie metaphors emerging at these profound times of great change. As I've written about in Divinicus, my sense is that humanity is tapping into a collective story about where we've really come from, where we are (which isn't always easy to see), and where we're going to. It's a massive story; an incredible amount to take in. It's a story that by itself, is enough to process karma, realign botched DNA and activate your spirit-light-body. For me, the recent movie "Exodus: of Gods and Kings" is one that speaks volumes...

I find it amazing how you can glean the truth of what's going on in the world more from the movies than the mainstream. The story bubbling up through evolving human consciousness is one of being enslaved within a system of control that we're working to break free from. Films like Hunger Games, Elysium, and Divergent are indicative. We're working to reclaim the sovereignty of the earth. The very next agenda we must rise up against is 'transhumanism', so eloquently depicted in the Johnny Depp film "Transcendence". The powers-that-be are proposing all manner of synthetic realities. Watch this greenpeace video about "Robo Bees". Let us not sleepwalk into a false reality agenda...

As a discerning health seeker on the spiritual path I can't help but get excited about celery and its myriad of supportive benefits. Being healthy helps give me a spiritual clarity and profound sense of wholeness that has supported my spiritual journey no end! Celery is most definitely on my top 10 list. On a practical level it has a distinctive, tangy crunch that adds a refreshing depth to salads, whilst easily earning a five star thumbs-up as the perfect finger food. Celery also works wonders as a natural scoop for dips, pates and nut butters...

You'll often find it as an ingredient in soups and stews, to bring a tasty base flavour to various culinary creations. An unexpected bonus for anyone watching their weight, is that it's ridiculously low in calories, with scientists going as far as saying that chewing it uses up more energy than the vegetable itself contains!

Occasionally a person comes along and touches deep into the core of your soul. Robin Williams had the capacity to do exactly that. You very much got the sense, that although he was a brilliant character actor, he was touching intimately-authentic moments in life. That's what made him so special. My heart was heavy with his death; yet simultaneously uplifted by the genius he left behind in his films. Here's a particularly inspiring clip from "Dead Poets Society", which to me, offers an invaluable insight in how to get out of the mind and unleash authentic self expression

I found this video testimony of a young lady sharing her Near Death Experience deeply moving. Having slipped into a coma after a shattering car crash, she experienced being held in white light, a sense of being completely immersed in love, then taking a review of her life. It's an inspiration to anyone who might still question existence beyond death; and what strongly resonates, is the sense of expansion and joy in moving beyond physicality - like coming home. It's a definite must see...
