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...

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...

In days gone by, wild foods were all we had, that used to be staple diet necessary for human health and survival. Often full of natural medicinal benefits, wild foods often saved lives in times of famine, war and ill health. It’s a little bizarre to contemplate how radically removed from nature we have actually become. As intensive farming methods and consumerism came into being, our general attunement to nature fell away, and our knowledge thereof has somewhat dwindled. Increasing food prices, uncertain times of global change and decreasing food availability has invited more and more people to contemplate alternative ways of finding food by foraging.

My attention was drawn recently to an article in the mainstream about the predicted collapse of civilisation "happening within decades". It's something many are talking about in the alternative media and we've spoken of in our Great Realignment series of articles. So why are the mainstream talking about it now and who is behind the study? Knowing these things might offer some clues as to what events may unfold in society. For me, digesting the distinct probability of collapse means you can prepare yourself, especially your consciousness, to let go, take centre stream and allow the soul to guide the ship...

There's nothing like increasing awareness through humour. If we can laugh at the world and ourselves, then not only does it bring important issues into our awareness, but heals the soul too. That's what tickled me about this video. You can feel it's based in ironic truth about the nature of society, yet it gives you a good old laugh about it too. So watch the video, let it spike your awareness - in this case to deceptive food labeling - but let it tickle your humour taste buds too...

Recently I came across this (I could use the word 'alarming') report about the level of dead sea life that now litters the floor of the Pacific Ocean. It would appear it's a direct effect of the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster, even though mainstream science is currently denying it. Right now, if you check out the alternative media, you'll find a catalogue of disturbing reports about all manner of animal deaths and even birth malformations coming out of the Pacific region. Yet practically not a word is spoken on main stream TV. Make no mistake, this is global event which in the coming years will have a global affect. We need to be aware and informed. It's going to change many people's perspectives on what's really important...

Have you wondered why news about the stricken Fukushima nuclear plant is eerily sparse? Recently the Russian Federation has raised reporting about Fukushima to its highest classification, meaning that if the truth was released, it could damage the foundation of the federation itself. And in America, according to insiders, main stream media are being instructed not to report either, because of their fear of panic. So what exactly is going on? I just came across this video I think all should see. I can feel the impact of this event affecting the entire planet in due course. The synchronistic significance cannot be overstated. We need to pay attention and realise what global events here have kicked into play...

As they say, "all good things must come to an end", but then also "what we do in life echos in eternity". Nelson Mandela is without doubt a great soul that has not only touched the lives of many, but will leave a lasting legacy continuing long into the future. To everyone of us, he is a symbol of courage, perseverance and commitment in the face of adversity. It's these qualities which are so needed at this time to lift humanity into a new evolutionary state. So here at Openhand, not only do we mourn a great man, but also celebrate a great life. Here are a few of his quotes...

20 million people around the globe have so far watched the Thrive Movie. If I had to summarise, I'd say it's really about how the awakening movement can break down the unjust and inhumane, controlling agenda that governs our world; how a more balanced and environmentally friendly society using so called "free energy" could create a sustainable future. To their credit, the Thrive Movement has connected with and supported innovative ventures by entrepreneurial, awakened people around the globe. Personally, I think the sheer number who've resonated with the movie, speaks volumes about how strong the underlying desire for change on our planet really is and I'm greatly heartened by that fact...
