From Ellen

12/20/12   HAPPY SOLSTICE!
HI Virtual Salon Weekly Newsletter,
  • So tomorrow is the longest night of the year, the winter solstice, and, significant for some, the end of the last "basket" in the Mayan calendar, which has been equated to the end of the world.  Most New Agers I know have switched to "the end of the world as we know it" and are expecting a subtle (or perhaps not so subtle) shift in the energies of the world towards love and brotherhood, the Age of Aquarius.  My deceased parents are at war on this: Johnny, my engineer father says, "Pure and utter nonsense  a perfect example of what William Fulbright has called 'the swinish blight of intellectual irrationality'!"  My more credulous artist  mother, Billye, says,"Sounds good; bring it on!"  Have you been feeling any shifting going on, inside yourself or in the world?  I have to admit that I have.  My morning meditation/walk on Lafayette Avenue has been increasingly beautiful and my heart has been opening.  Let it be; the rebirth of light, of love, of peace on earth and universal good will.  Happy Yule!  Merry Christmas!
  • Oh and BTW (for those who don't text, means "By the Way"), the folks on Lafayette Ave and North Cliff Lane, just off Lafayette have decorated their homes and trees and bushes with little white lights and it is a fairy land!  Especially don't miss the Hausler's place, on the South side of Lafayette Ave on the hill opposite the Scarlet Oaks retirement community.  It's a huge stone castle (Makes the Lloyd House look like a cottage) with all white lights including 3 deciduous tress and one huge conifer.  Thank you Jackie Hausler!  Well worth an evening stroll or drive with the  children.  Let me know what  you think.  
Hugs to all, 
Ellen

Please see, read, enjoy; and if you care to, please share the attachment at the bottom of this email: "Imaging Sacred Ground".

You are also hereby invited to these two upcoming events (and please feel free to invite everyone you know.  Both are being held at "Beans & Grapes" - owned by "Sacred Grounds" in Pleasant Ridge (Cincinnati):

1) "Healing Cancer From Within"; Friday evening 6 - 10 pm; 12/28/2012.  Hosted jointly with Tomas Englert of "Fresh Kangen".  We will be showing the 2 hour video: "Healing Cancer from the Inside Out"; and offering a poetry and dance piece by Diane Germaine & Mischelle Morano.  We will have lots of time for sharing and Q&A; socializing, and outstanding coffee & wine, some VERY select integrous vendors; followed by music and dancing from 10 - 11pm.

2) "Geo-Engineering Planet Earth"; Saturday evening 6-10 pm on 12/29/2012.  We will be viewing: "Why on Earth are they Spraying?" - an approximate 1.5 hr video.  Everything else is ditto above.  I hope to co-sponsor this with Karen Pangburn & "Sky Watch Cincinnati".

Both evenings are no cost to attend, however "love offering" financial contributions are extremely welcome to further this work,  Coffee & wine will be for sale, as well as some vendor's products - including the above DVD's at "cost".

RESPONSE FROM KAREN PANGBURN OF CINCINNATI SKY WATCH

Randall,

Please remove me from your email list.  You didn't speak with me first about getting Cincinnati Sky Watch/Karen Pangburn to help you host an event and you put this in an email without speaking with me first.  You are not "allowed" to use our name in reference to the activities you hold.  You are allowed to show the film and do outreach of course, but not using my name and Cincinnati Sky Watch without speaking with a member of our group and/or myself.

The ideas you have of just contacting Michele Obam. to get him to work on her husband is actually quite delusional.  We will not be associated with such nonsense.

There are crazy theories associated with the geoengineering/chemtrail movement.  Cincinnati Sky Watch is staying with facts,keeping ourselves professional and we align ourselves more with Michael Murphy, Rosalind Peterson, and Dane Wigington. There are plenty of govt patents, documents on geoengineering and it there is no need to try to prove that is going on.  There are over 100 weather modification experiments going on in the US currently and some can be found on NOAA's site and Rosalind Peterson's California Sky Watch website.

Sincerely,

Karen Pangburn

Cincinnati Sky Watch
