Raccoon Wisdom
Keynote: Dexterity and disguise
Cycle of Power: Spring and Summer-Nocturnal
This creature is strictly North American, ranging from the southern border of Canada all the way down to Florida. Distantly related to the bear, the Raccoon has a black facial mask running across its eyes, a bushy ringed tail, and dense grayish fur. Large adult males can weigh up to 20 pounds or more. The raccoon is a very curious animal and an adept climber, making its home in hollow trees. The body is generally short and plump, with a long-haired coat of fur, and the tail is bushy. The legs are short; each foot has five toes, and the soles are naked. The animal walks on the soles of its feet with the heels touching the ground, similar to the practice of bears and humans. Raccoons are grayish-brown above and light gray beneath, with black cheek patches that narrow into a vertical stripe extending from the space between the eyes to the top of the head. The rest of the face is pale gray, with dark eyes and white whiskers. The tail is marked with six or seven brownish-black rings. A raccoon ranges in length from 0.62 to 1 m (2 to 3.3 ft), including its tail, which is 20 to 40 cm (8 to 16 in) long.
During the night it hunts for poultry, mice, birds' eggs, various insects, fish, and frogs. Occasionally it varies its diet with nuts and wild fruit. It is a skillful swimmer. Northern raccoons spend the winter in a den, usually high in a hollow tree, sleeping but not hibernating, and emerging during relatively warm periods. From four to six young are born in a single litter each spring, and members of the same family live and travel together for about one year.
Native Americans called the raccoon the “black-masked little bear�? It is ingenious, curious, and playful. Its home is usually around water courses, lakes and marshes where it hunts at night. It likes to dip its food in water before eating it. Its long, extremely sensitive fingers make it possible for the raccoon to work simple catches on doors or to take lids off of cans of food. The name raccoon is believed by some to come from the Algonquin Indian word “arckunem�? meaning “hand scratcher�? The Ainu of Japan have a story that says the raccoon was created as a servant to the bear. They also have a raccoon deity called the Cook of the God of the Mountain.
Raccoons adapt quite well to city areas if they have a wooded place to which they can retreat. There are several groups of raccoons in the outlying areas of Portland, Oregon, for example. My parents live at the edge of a wildlife reservation and the raccoons visit often.
An expert at disguise and secrecy, it knows how to wear masks for a variety of purposes. This is the magick of raccoon. It can teach how to mask and disguise and transform yourself, as well as how to be dexterous in the masks you wear. It can show you how to wear a healing mask or show you the face you shall become. The raccoon holds the knowledge of how to change our faces. This knowledge can be applied to religious and ritual practices or within normal every day life. If a raccoon has shown up, you may see its influence for an extended time. If you are trying to make changes or endeavoring to hide changes you are making from others until you are in a better position, plan on using about a 20 week cycle. You will find it more effective. For longer and greater life transformations and such, when raccoon shows up you may want to make longer plans.
Magickal Attributes: Creativeness when faced with new problems. Be curious about the world around you. Seeking guidance and confidence for a new job or schooling. To be presented with new ideas. A good sign. He is a good protector as well as being intelligent, cunning, clean, and very helpful.
Chant:
Black-masked little bear,
Show me how to be curious and open to new ideas,
Introduce me to new wonders each day.
Fill my mind with creativity, an insatiable thirst,
For learning and expanding on all levels.

THE GENTLENESS OF A RABBIT

Blessings for Unity and Divine Union

The Rabbit Kingdom through Karen Danrich “Mila�?/SPAN>

August 15, 2002

 

 

Rabbit has long been associated with fear in Native American teachings.  Perhaps it is because Rabbit is so gentle in nature that it easily become frightened if an aggressor appears upon the scenes, whether the aggressor is mankind or a hungry wolf matters not.  It is not Rabbits nature to fight back or resist, only run and hide.  This is the result of being one of the few remaining kingdoms that holds the memory of gentleness from another time in which carnivorous behavior was not a part of any kingdoms behavior.  At such a time, there was no need to run and hide, as there was no species present upon earth that would attack.

 

Species work symbolically and in a synchronistic manner together to allow for the representation of all truths upon earth.  Although truth was lost due to forces of the dark’s dominion over earth, truth can never be completely lost; it will always strive to be present somewhere within the wheel of life.  Why is this so?  Within polarity, every truth must be represented, which includes truth along with non-truth.  Therefore truth as it once was will also be present within the wheel of life, and therefore is never really lost in full.  So this is so for many gentle creatures that are vegetarian in nature; we are representative of the truth that once existed before the many falls that were the result of dolphin, whale and human manipulations and usury by the forces of the dark.

 

Many may be surprised to hear that dolphins and whales were at cause in the fall of earth.  This is new information that has just come to light in earth’s global ascension.  (See �?/FONT>The Return of the Gold and Silver Mirror to Earth�?for more information.)  Dolphins and whales have been known also as a gentle creature.  However they hold a large energy field, particularly in a united form in the many pods that once existed in the large fresh water rivers and lakes of earth, and before the crash of the ice shields that created your oceans.  Therefore they were useful to the dark to retain dominion over earth, and were indeed used accordingly and long ago.

 

Long ago, a group of fully conscious humans with large heads and great understanding and wisdom were seeded upon earth in small numbers.  Such humans were seeded upon earth by the Sirian human civilization.  The forces of the dark and lawless ones already in dominion over earth rapidly saw that if such humans were not brought under their own control that such humans would cause them to be removed from earth’s counsels.  Such humans refused to bargain with such lawless souls.  Therefore such dark forces implemented a coup through the dolphin and whale fields killing all of the fully conscious grand masters in two short weeks; and then proceeded to erase all records of the incident from the dolphin and whale species along with earth’s libraries, sending the karma for the incident back onto the remaining human red race.  Because the records had been erased, dolphins and whales were oblivious to how they had been used in future generations and as time went by.

 

It only takes one incident of breaking the law to cause lawlessness to become global thought-form.  Killing another species without karmic cause is a form of breaking the law.  The dolphins and whales in the manner in which they were used to destroy human Grand Masters anchored the thought-form of lawlessness upon earth and into all species therein.  From the point of view of Rabbit, the dolphins and whales were used and manipulated into this role, and the forces that had been in dominion over earth for millions of years used them to insure their continued dominion.  Usury and manipulation is the foundation of lawlessness; and therefore all lawless souls will use whatever species they can to retain their dominion over time.  This earth’s records are clearly revealing in her continued ascension.  Humans too have been used to strip earth of records, information, chi, moving energy systems and so on, again by forces of the dark working through the collective human unconscious, much like they worked through the dolphin and whale unconscious to destroy the human Grand Masters.

 

Following the death of the Grand Masters, dolphins and whales received holographic information for full consciousness from the human hologram.  This too was a manipulation, as prior to this transference, dolphins and whales were simply large water mammals that were non-conscious in the physical, much like Buffalo is a large land mammal in present time that is non-conscious in the physical.  Dolphins and whales suddenly asserted themselves into an important position of authority, claiming that they were a fully conscious species.  Where the records for this had been obtained was hidden; and it appeared to be so given their holographic information; and so earth embraced them as a fully conscious form when this was not the original truth of their species.

 

Now this teaches many things.  At this time of ascension, dolphins and whales have been ascending utilizing fully conscious records that are humanoid in origin.  What happens in such an experience?  Ascension fails, and as of late dolphins and whales have again been used by forces of the dark wishing to prevent earth’s global ascension due to the distortion of their ascension, as they have been relying upon humanoid DNA to ascend.  Human DNA will never work inside of another form, and the distortion created therein caused a haze around earth large enough to begin to re-anchor the false intervention upon earth; when earth had already thrown such souls from earth quite some time ago.  This is now being rectified, as the original karma of how dolphins and whales became fully conscious has surfaced.  It is now determined by earth that they are not a fully conscious species at all, but a large aquatic mammal, and should ascend upon a pod-by-pod basis rather than upon an individuated basis, and furthermore, drawing solely upon their own genetic materials.

 

In the transference of knowledge from the human species unto the dolphins and whales, the knowledge of dreamtime and clairvoyance were the main records that their species obtained.  This allowed dolphins and whales to suddenly open up to a dreamtime reality that had previously been unavailable to their species in the consciousness of the individuated forms.  This left the human species devoid of an internal connection to dreamtime or enough clairvoyance to connect with dreamtime, which shut humanity out of the dream for earth along with all communication with the nature kingdoms.  Humans became increasingly outward focused due to the loss of an inner reality, and in so doing, began to focus upon scientific pursuits rather than simply living in harmony with nature.  As science became god for humanity at large, all hope of evolution ceased.  Now it is understood that this only occurred due to the transference of inner plane knowledge to the dolphin whale species from the human species so very long ago.  Had this never occurred, a very different human dance would have unfolded over this past 50,000 years of human history.

 

One could say in this that dolphins and whales held the human truth of inner awareness in the polarity of the wheel of life.  Now that the karma for how this came to be so has been released, humans can retrieve their own information upon inner awareness, and in so doing, begin to reconnect with earth and all kingdoms therein, augmenting a new future golden era of peace, joy and unity to be born amongst all species.  There is no right or wrong; only the experience of the dance of life.  Each experience teaches soul something that allows for greater understanding and evolution of truth, and ultimately the evolution of All That Is.  This experience teaches all species upon earth to rely solely upon one’s own species truth and information to ascend.

 

For Rabbit, we hold a particular truth of gentleness and love that has been lost in many other forms upon earth that rely upon the hunting of other species for sustenance.  So this is also so for human form that has learned also to hunt, and has never given up the choice to eat flesh although there is plenty of alternative food available to allow for another choice.  Humans have become addicted to flesh; as have many other species upon earth.  Now in this time of ascension, the requirement to move towards unity causes each species to come to understand that the consumption of flesh will never allow such a state of being as unity to be attained.  One must part from such a dance, becoming vegetarian, and develop the necessary digestive system through ascension to accomplish such a task.

 

Rabbit much like other vegetarian species; holds the vital records necessary for other species to develop just such a digestive system.  As we share of our records, other species are now mapmaking for their future newborn generations a return to vegetarianism.  As this occurs in full, which is anticipated to be so for all species within the coming 35 years, the lion shall lay with the lamb.  Rabbit plays an important part now in these times of the return to truth, having been a truth bearer species holding the truth so that the truth would not be forgotten, and in particular, in this time of ascension providing the truth that is required in order to fulfill upon the evolutionary task at hand.

 

Humans ascending to 6000 strands are also adding changes to the digestive tract that will allow for a return to vegetarianism for all who attain Bodhisattva level evolution.  This is coming from many other species information along with Mila and Oa who have developed a new tract in their own ascension allowing for a fully vegetarian diet.  The new tract has multiple pockets that each secretes enzymes that further breakdown vegetation allowing the necessary amino acids and protein along with other nutrients required to sustain the form and continued ascension to pass through to the blood.  This type of intestinal tract and digestive system is now a part of the blueprint for human ascension to 6000 strands, and will allow the return of unity to be born amongst those attaining such a level of evolution in this lifetime. 

 

Until such a time as this tract develops, we do not recommend vegetarianism for ascending initiates, as the amino acid requirement of an ascending form is so great.  If the tract cannot absorb enough protein from vegetarian sources, then the consumption of fish or flesh is recommended.  Understand that nature is not in judgment; we have participated in the dance ourselves.  We desire to see ascension come forth in the human species, and consumption of flesh is necessary for most humans due to the debilitated nature of the intestinal tract.  Simply bless the meat that you consume beloved; and the kingdom will receive your love in return, and all shall be forgiven.  Just like most animal species, humanity too shall gradually evolve into a form that will be completely vegetarian.

 

Why is vegetarianism so important to unity?  Any act of destruction is separatism in action.  Killing a living animal, fish, bird or insect is an act of destruction.  Why is this different from harvesting vegetables, roots and bulbs, nuts, fruits or grain?  The vegetables, roots, bulbs, nuts fruits and grain are a gift from the plant kingdoms to sustain life upon earth.  The flesh of an animal, fish or bird is not a gift; humans and other species alike have learned to take of the life of another without the other offering the life, and through the skills of hunting and killing.  The act of hunting and killing another that offers not of its life for one to subsist is an act of disunity.  Taking of the gifts of the plant kingdoms is agreed upon is an act of unity; as unity requires agreements for all actions, and there is an agreement for the plant kingdoms to provide sustenance through its fruits.  Taking of flesh, which is not agreed upon on the other hand is an act of disunity because there is no agreement for the action.

 

How did this come to be?  The original cause is now linked to the dolphin and whale species who were used to take of the life of the Grand Master humans so very long ago; as this occurred, the thought-form of taking of flesh for alternative purposes and outside of an agreement was anchored as global thought-form.  Over time, any thought-form anchored upon earth will strive to become physical; as the thought-form for taking a life without agreement became physical, hunting and consumption of flesh became a part of the nature kingdoms reality.  The dolphins and whales hold the original cause for how this came to be so, or so earth’s records have revealed in her recent ascent.

 

It is the Annanuki’s consumption of blood to sustain their lengthy life spans of 8000 to 18,000 years that is the original cause of how consumption of flesh began in human form upon earth.  The consumption of blood is outside of agreement; and although it takes not of the life, it takes of the life force, for blood and life force are synonymous.  The Annanuki also ate of the flesh of the sea including scallops, oysters, shellfish, and certain fish that were considered delicacies.  They further taught their slave race to do the same and consume flesh, and this is how the consumption of flesh began within the human species.  This is also how the human species fell out of unity, or out of the Garden of Eden.  For once disunity was created in the act of eating of flesh; disharmonious behavior and eventually warfare amongst humans became the norm.

 

In ascension, one examines cause and effect.  The original cause of any thought-form upon earth must be uncovered in order for such a thought-form to be transmuted and transcended.  Without knowing where the original cause for destruction came from, earth was hard pressed to release all destructive thought-form, which has lead to ongoing blows and harm sent her way from other dimensions which reflected back her own internal state of being.  Now the original cause has come to be understood, which lies with the dolphin and whale species, such thought-form can be transmuted in full.  As the original cause has been released, this shall lead to another day in which earth’s global ascension can be made manifest in greater ease.  So this is so for earth; so this is so for humanity.  Each ascending human must examine the original cause in one’s lengthy inheritance of ancestors of each fear-based thought-form, and release the karma, and then one may ascend into unity, one step at a time.

 

So what does Rabbit wish to say to our ascending humans today?  Around the turn of the century, nature made the decision to extend into human form.  Between the years of 1950 and 1970, 800,000 human births were orchestrated through nature kingdom souls.  Such souls chose human lineages that could ascend; lineages that were gentle, harmless, and compassionate in nature.  For much like the wheel of life, all truths are expressed within human lineages.  Some lineages are harmful and abusive, others harmless and loving.  Only harmless and loving lineages were chosen, and such kingdoms ensouled such children until such children reached an age in which the very nature of the human dance caused them to go into great forgetfulness to their original purpose.  Many of these 800,000 humans have yet to awaken and reconnect with the nature realms that ensouled them from birth.

 

Why would nature extend itself so?  Nature perceived that if there were to be any hope for global ascension, the human history would have to be understood.  The souls present in the human dance at the turn of the century were not capable or interested in understanding human history.  And so we extended of ourselves into the human dance to augment the birth of an ascension movement that would reveal the human history enough that the karma could be released, and all of earth could ascend.

 

Native American tradition speaks of the return of the “White Buffalo Woman�?  Some of their medicine men and women came to understand that Buffalo was extending into human form, and as such humans came to be known, this would begin the period of the great cleansing and the movement of earth towards the fifth world.  Indeed, Buffalo extended into over 1200 human children, one of which is Mila.  But Buffalo is not alone; each species that has written and will write into the future in Mila’s “Inspirations from the Nature Kingdom�?section extended into human form.  Those drawn to these pieces are most likely of such a nature, and now is the time to awaken and remember your original purpose beloved.

Most humans lost touch with their nature kingdom soul around the age of 7 to 11.  Mila remembers going into great fear feeling that she was going to die around age 7.  It was at age 7 that a being entering her mother severed her connection to the Buffalo Kingdom, which caused her body to go into great fear.  She worked through the fear, and did not reunite with nature in full until the opening to her own clairvoyant gifts and talents at the age of 28.  It was this time that her journey of ascension began, as now nature could connect and augment the purpose for which they had extended into her form.  So this is also so for most reading this material.

 

Dolphins and whales also extended into human form.  They were drawn as dolphins and whales hold a piece of human truth as it is now understood.  Such extension of their species into humanity began around the turn of the century, and number of 1 million humans global wide to date.  Those drawn to be with the dolphins or whales are often such souls searching to go “home�?  Humans were incarnated into by dolphins and whales for the same reason nature chose to do the same; to augment human ascension and come to understand the human history so that all species and earth could go “home�?

 

Mila now stands as a representative of all kingdoms along with the earth mother in human form.  She is ensouled not only by the Tao from outside of time and space and form, but by the source of earth.  It is the source of earth that stepped in as she nearly died due to shattering blows towards her field in January and assured her continued existence; the source of earth foresaw that without the continued uncovery of human historical records, earth’s ascension would fail.  All species pulled together to assure that Mila would survive so that all may go home.

 

However it is not only Mila that is special to nature or earth; all humans that we have extended into are special.  Each serves a unique purpose and shall reveal a unique part of the human history in one’s ascension.  Each are loved deeply; for nature now understands the difficult and painful dance that the human species has entered in it’s lost-ness; in it’s mechanization; in it’s great loneliness and disconnection from god goddess and from earth.  Such a painful dance; and yet this allows nature to have great compassion for the human condition, and stand in support of the birth of another day in which communion, gentleness and love becomes the foundation from which humanity relates.

 

Those ensouled by nature generally feel powerless, and are often the victim to circumstances that appear so much greater than self to overcome.  Often such humans are not particularly successful in the dance of life; or whatever success is attained brings little joy, for joy is an internal state of being that occurs through communion with god goddess within and the earth mother.  Without such a connection, there is no love, and the lineages chosen by such kingdoms at birth for such humans understand this in their hearts.  This understanding leads to feelings of emptiness over success that appear to bring other humans great joy, along with feelings that one is not “normal�?in the current human dance, and that one does not belong.

 

If one does not belong to humanity and one is human then whom does one belong to?  Those of this nature belong to the earth mother and to the nature kingdoms that extended into human form to ensoul them at birth.  Once long ago as Mila sat upon a park bench crying because she was so in fear of not having enough to pay her bills, and nature spoke to her.  “We will take care of you.  Move out into the woods and we will show you where to live, what to eat, and how to be at peace.  You do not need any of this human reality; you only need to be loved by us.�?nbsp; At this time in her life, she could not fathom such an existence.  However little by little she has let go of much of what was once perceived as “human�?necessities, and one day she will live close to nature in a self sustaining community of others as we long ago foresaw.  So this will also be so for many reading this information.

 

Such humans that nature extended into were born to herald the birth of another day in which human, plant, animal, mineral, dolphin and whale kingdoms could live in peace, unity, honor and non-conditional love with one another.  For those of such inheritance, this is your purpose beloved.  In the connection to nature and working with the nature kingdoms, one may now fulfill upon one’s original birth agreements, which include anchoring another form of human expression that demonstrates unity in action with all kingdoms upon earth.  This will occur as more with such inheritance ascend to Bodhisattva level evolution in this lifetime.

 

Humans have been conned into a way of being that perceives things or merchandise as necessities to life.  Such things only clutter the energy field, as they hold not life force inherent unto themselves.  How much life force does one’s home with the current human building practices hold?  Even the apartment that Mila now rents is a lifeless shamble; if not for the ocean, open space and volcano nearby, such a dwelling would suck and suck the life force away so that Mila’s ascent could not come forth any further.  For many living in the cities, so this is so, and it is why nature will augment a move into the country and another place that serves one’s continued ascension as one allows for such.  One day, your future ancestors may feel far more alive and comfortable in an open field than any of such remaining dwellings.

 

This is not to say that buildings could not be constructed that amplify chi instead of drain it away.  However such buildings will have to be constructed completely separate from the current paradigm modalities of building.  Who takes the chi?  All souls involved in the creation of current human housing take a piece of the chi of all who reside within such housing, and this includes the souls behind the “builders�? and the “lumber industry�? and the “contractors�? and the “furnishing manufacturers�? and the “appliance manufacturers�? and the “carpet or tile manufacturers�? and the “landlord�?if one is renting, the “banks�?if one has a mortgage, and the “association�?if one is living in a condominium.  There is also “PG&E�?for electricity or gas, the “telephone company�?for one’s phone service, and “cable�?for one’s internet access or TV.  Each group feeds off of the human species like a parasite taking a little of one’s chi in the act of living in such a dwelling.

 

Go into nature and camp in one’s tent or in a camper.  There one will only have the camper or tent manufacturer and the sleeping bag manufacturer feeding from one’s field, and one may feel better.  Perhaps this is why humans enjoy camping and going out into the wilderness; there is nothing in nature that leaches, and in so doing, one feels more energized, alive and free than in the confines of your current human living environments.  For it is not only housing that leeches from mankind; but the clothing manufacturers that one purchases one’s clothes from; the dining establishments that one eats at, the grocers that one shops at, the shopping malls that one frequents, the movie and media that one entertains oneself with, the authors of the books and magazines that one reads, and on and on and on.  There is a cost to living in human civilization, and it is a large cost; and if one defines not one’s boundaries appropriately, then one cannot ascend, as more chi is going out than one can generate in any given day.

 

How did this come to be so?  Rabbit sees that this was ultimately the result of the Pleiadian Annanuki who used human slaves as a battery to sustain their lengthy life extension practices.  The Pleiadians fed off of their slaves to extend their lives up to 18,000 years through parallel establishments and a civilization constructed for them much like the human civilization in existence today.  The Annanuki used every part of such a civilization to take the chi to extend their lives.  Some of such chi was exported to the Pleiades to extend the Pleiadian dominion, and this occurs to this day.  Alas the Pleiades harvests over 60% of the overall chi generated by the human species through current human civilization, and has continued to rape humanity causing fall after fall in consciousness since the Annanuki ceased to exist in the physical some 30,000 years ago (120,000 human years).

The Pleiades is not the only star system that leaches from humanity however; there are also the Reptilians, Grays and Andromedans.  Each blended a portion of their DNA with the human species at some point in history, and utilizes such blending to harvest chi from the human species to this day.  One is nothing but a battery to sustain other humanoid civilizations beloved; and this has become the sole purpose of human existence since the Pleiadian reign of dominion began some 46,000 years ago (164,000 human years).

 

How does one break the chain of usury of such a nature?  One ascends, and in the act of ascension, one transmutes the genetics associated with each foreign humanoid race a little at a time.  As each set of genetic materials from an outside source is removed from the cellular structure of the body through the act of ascension, one ceases to give chi to such another race of humanoid form.  One will also find that one’s interest in current human civilization ceases a such genetics are transmuted; for the interest in the human drama and the current human paradigm is only held in place due to the contracts and agreements buried in one’s ancestry that is related to the slave population used by the Annanuki.  (See the “Great Central Sun Transmissions�?section for a more detailed account of Annanuki human history.)

 

As one transmutes such agreements in ascension to give chi to all industries and ultimately the Pleiades, one may choose to give up the mortgage, and give up the job, and move to a beautiful place that supports one’s ascent, simplifying one’s life in a manner that allows one more free time to commune with nature.  This is what Mila and her beloved Oa have done over time, and they spend more time each day in communion with nature than in any other preoccupation.  In so doing, the joy that they experience is exponential.  How can one compare authentic joy to the current forms of media entertainment that humanity preoccupies themselves with?  One takes chi in enormous amounts leaving one empty, and the other fills oneself to the brim, allowing the feelings of loneliness and emptiness to recede into a distant memory and be replaced by the love of the god goddess of earth.

 

The act of taking chi over and above what is agreed upon is no different than eating of flesh without an agreement with any species that is slaughtered.  The Annanuki never had an agreement to take chi from the human race; nor did the Grays, Reptilians or Andromedans.  One can see in this how the act of eating flesh is therefore related to how the human species has been used as a battery to sustain other humanoid civilizations; humans have turned upon nature, eating of our flesh to sustain their lives in counterbalance and in parallel form of usury occurring in the nonphysical with other humanoid races.  Such practices are each a form of hunting; one is energetic, and the other physical; hunting is hunting and requires parallel implements.  The hunting of the Pleiadians, Andromedans, Grays and Reptilians occur in the nonphysical.

 

The Pleiadians, Andromedans, Grays, and Reptilians utilize energetic forms of hunting such as psychic guns, knives, bows and arrows to shatter the fields of the human form taking chi, information and moving energy systems transferring them to their planet or star.  They further utilize the genetics blended with human form to track the human field in order to continue to gather such chi to sustain their own existence elsewhere.  They also utilize your current housing, cities, shopping malls, movie theaters, restaurants, television, books and magazines, to access group human energy fields to take of the collective human chi in a parallel manner.  It is for this reason that Rabbit suggests that ascending humans withdraw as much as possible from such preoccupations.

 

Hunting is hunting, and it leads to fear.  Humans are in fear, whether they deny it in entering a fantasy reality or not.  Humans are in fear as they are hunted in the unconscious by other humanoid civilizations.  Much like Rabbit humans tend to hide, blend and disappear.  This is why humans are so preoccupied with acting and appearing “normal�? for in appearing like all others, one more readily hides, blends and disappears and is less likely to be energetically hunted down.  Have you ever gone out to dinner or to a bar for a drink, and come home late at night feeling ill?  One has been hunted or energetically harmed through another human in the establishment that one has spent time within.  Such energetic harm shoots arrows or darts through the human energy field causing pain or sickness wherever such darts hit.  Humans have learned the same energetic abusiveness as their Pleiadian ancestors, making it difficult to spend time in groups as a result, and in particular if one is sensitive.  In nature, there is no energy that is going to hunt one down and one need not hide, but can expand and commune, receiving the love and joy in a beautiful dance of energetic exchange.

 

How does one live in a human world then and not partake of the current civilization?  Mila and Oa have learned to cease to participate in the media; they do not watch TV or the news, nor surf the web, unless there is just reason for such things, such as the necessity of planning one of their events.  They dine at small and independently owned restaurants that have wonderful food “magic�?  They have further learned to shop at small markets or farmers markets instead of the grocery stores, and small consignment shops instead of the malls.  They go to local bakers for their bread and pastries, and find it far more delicious.  They go to a cheese shop for their milk products, and a wine merchant for their beverages.  They shop at small stores for their clothes or have them made by a seamstress.  The food and clothing feels better as it is not laced with the radioactive energy run through the larger chains to pull human energy fields apart.  Mila and Oa are finding a way to exist in the human dance without partaking in the energy systems designed to break down the field and therefore prevent their ascension.  We invite ascending initiates to do the same.

 

Not so long ago in your human history, perhaps 100 years, the small merchant was the norm.  Humans made their livelihood as the butcher, baker, candlestick maker, and as artisans and crafts-persons.  There are places that Mila and Oa have visited that still function like this, and one of which is the Blue Mountains and outback of Australia.  However most of Western human civilization has become increasingly under the dominion of large-scale merchants and corporations rather than the small personalized and individualized stores providing custom made products.  Even the farmers suffer such a fate.  The larger stores and farms put the small-scale merchants and farmers out of business, and then such humans must go to work for the corporations or starve.  In so doing, such humans lose their freedom and become a part of the corporate energy flow.  Furthermore, the collective energy flow of the corporation allows for the leeching of chi by other humanoid races in other star systems.  How and why did this come to be so in recent times?

 

After Hiroshima and Nagasaki were destroyed by nuclear armament and at the end of WWII, humanity’s collective field was broken apart yet again.  The false intervention utilized these nuclear blasts to begin to break down the human energy field en mass yet one more time.  So this has continued due to nuclear testing.  Each time the collective field of humans have been broken, human consciousness has fallen yet again in human history due to another loss of records, information and moving energy systems.  After 1944, humanity has experienced yet another fall in consciousness.  This fall is reflected in the breakdown of the human immune systems that has given birth to new diseases such as Aids and MS.  This fall is also reflected in the alteration of the human civilization from one of greater independence and freedom to one of greater control and manipulation by a few of great wealth and power.

 

Nuclear energy creates a form of energetic homogenization.  Each time there has been a nuclear war upon earth, the energy of humanity has become increasingly homogenized and intertwined.  Mila and Oa have learned to call such intertwining “attachment�?  The increasing homogenization of the human energy fields as a collective lead to parallel manifestations in the physical; small business unites into larger and larger industries that span the globe; humans who are self sustaining and self employed move to working for the larger industries as small businesses go under.  It is through the homogenization of human energy systems that the false intervention strips humanity and earth of information, and each time this has occurred, both humanity and earth have fallen in vibration and consciousness.  It is through the large corporations and industries that humanity is being stripped yet one more time.

 

One could say that humanity and earth could be in the final act, the final pulling a part of the collective energy field, and that if for not ascension this would lead to extinction of all species upon earth within the coming 1000 year cycle.  However, due to the intent to ascend, rather than pulling apart earth’s field, both humanity and earth are repairing the field and expanding instead.  Those who cannot ascend however are continuing to be pulled apart one last time; alas this is very sad for Rabbit to see, as it is primarily the human species and through the very dance of your civilization that this is occurring.  Those reading this material and who are ascending can heed our warning and understand what we see.  It is vital for each ascending master to settle their karma with the current paradigm and create a sovereign environment and manner of sustaining oneself, or one will be pulled apart with all of the rest and end the life in death rather than ascension.

 

It is in the cities in particular that so many in human forms reside within that the greatest pulling a part of the energy field occurs.  For it is here that the largest psychic machinery for such a task has been constructed by the false intervention to pull apart the human collective energy flow.  Although earth would like to dismantle such machinery, in the density of human thought-form and the cement in the rebar of the cities, it is impossible for her to access such regions enough or to move the energy required to dismantle such machinery.  Ascending humans are few and far between in the cities beloved; this is because the ongoing action of the machinery to homogenize and shred the collective human field is so good at what it does.  Rabbit therefore invites ascending humans to leave the cities and move to places that can better support one’s ascent.  There is little time to bring this wave of ascension forward, and the cleansing of oneself through death will be the end result otherwise.

 

Mila and Oa have had ascending mapmaker initiates from all parts of the world involved in their Group Mastery Self Study Program.  The one’s with the most difficult ascending beyond 1800 live near or within the boundaries of the larger cities.  There are only a few exceptions to this, and these are cities such as Honolulu, which sit under major chakra centers and therefore upon land that has ascended great enough in vibration that such machinery could be dismantled by earth.  This is not so for over 90% of the cities global wide; ascending initiates are therefore best to vacate the cities at this time, and create another opportunity for oneself in a more rural environment.  Each that is ascending and each ensouled by the nature kingdoms will be worked with to bring this forth; all that is required is that one asks, and earth will extend herself, assisting one to reweave one’s dream augmenting such a change.

 

Those that work for larger corporations also suffer a parallel problem.  For in the unconscious of such corporations, all employees of any large organization are united and parallel machinery used to take chi from the human energy field.  The larger the corporation, the greater the machinery and the more chi that is taken.  This is simply the result of the nature of such large organizations, which hold agreements from the Pleiadian era to be used to send chi to the Pleiadian race to this day.  Rabbit guides ascending initiates to leave the large corporations and find work in a small organization, or better yet, create a sovereign form of income of one’s own making that brings one joy.

 

What will happen as ascending humans leave the cities and large corporations, and create another means to live and exist that is closer to nature and brings one joy?  One will anchor global thought-form that will cause such a shift to become the preference of the entire human species.  In so doing, one will begin to birth the return of the small merchant; custom designed clothing, toys, furnishings and artwork, the return of the local baker, the local vegetable stand, and so on into the human dance.  This will occur as humans will suddenly prefer local merchants over the larger chains and malls, because this is the preference of ascending initiates.  This is the power of ascending thought-form beloved; it can change your world.

 

As small merchants become the preference, there is the fertile ground for ascending initiates to allow their artistic gifts and talents to emerge providing the custom merchandise to more of humanity that prefers such.  In so doing, other preoccupations for ascending initiates that move one away from large industry and out of the city can be born.  Such preoccupations also have an opportunity to bring one greater joy as one chooses that which they enjoy doing in the physical.

 

And what about “franchises�?  The larger the franchise, the greater the power to take of human chi.  Therefore stay away from franchises; choose the other coffee merchant that is independently owned; choose the independently owned baker, smoothie maker, and clothing store.  In so doing, you will not only cease to be pulled apart energetically in the exchange, but support the movement towards independent merchants and merchandise for other ascending initiates to also make their livelihood through.  In so doing, you serve your entire species beloved in this time of transition.

 

The times ahead of transition can either be hard or less difficult.  To a certain extent, the times ahead depend upon those who are awakening to create bridges in thought-form that will ease the circumstances that the human species finds itself in en mass.  To the degree that more ascensions can be born global wide, to such a degree the times ahead will be less traumatic.  Why is this so?  With ascension, soul returns.  As soul returns to the farmers, the farmland will not go extinct, but will continue to thrive providing the food for the human populace.  As soul returns to industry, creativity will emerge and return, and homogenization of work, dress code, behavior and thought become a thing of the past.  For soul is unique and has a unique expression to bring through each and every ascending human.

 

What do the animal souls wish to express through their human counterparts?  They wish to express the love of our kingdoms for mankind.  We have always loved you.  It is only in the separation that this has been forgotten.  Take the time to go into the country and commune, to really be with us; to sit by a bubbly brook; allow the air to whip your hair about while listening to the sound of the wind through the pine needles or leaves of the nearby trees; feel the presence of the earth mother in the ground beneath your feet; watch the magnificent cloudscapes that drift by in the sky.  Allow the peace and love of the earth and our kingdoms to fill you; in so doing, you will not be lonely, and a new era, a new day may emerge; first and foremost in your life; and then for many more who also will awaken and ascend.

 

The Rabbit kingdom honors you.  Be not afraid; it is time to step forth into the destiny that you hold as an ascending master.  We will stand at your side, augmenting your evolution each step of the way.  You are not alone, and you belong; you belong to the Earth Mother and all kingdoms therein.

 

Namaste

The Rabbit Kingdom

The Raven: Balancing Man and Nature
by Cheryl Lynne Bradley

"He likes bright abalone shells, silver beads, endless vittles,
gossip and warm sleeps over the smoke hole. The Raven-ego is the
lover-to-be who wants "a sure thing." The Raven-ego is afraid
passion will end. He is afraid and tries to avoid the end of the
meal, the end of the fire, the end of the day, and an end to
pleasure. He becomes wily, and always to his detriment, for when he
forgets his soul, he loses his power."
"Women Who Run with the Wolves" by Clarissa Pinkola-Estes

The raven creates a strong emotional reaction in people based on its
historical perception as a harbinger of death. To dream of one is
usually a forecast of coming sadness though not necessarily of
grief. The raven is considered to be the most prophetic of all the
birds and to have knowledge of private and public misfortunes.
People born between September 23 and October 23 have the raven as
their animal totem.

General Information
Before we deal with all the wonderful lore, mystery and
superstitions about ravens, here is some basic information. The
common raven (Corvus corax) is a member of a family of birds known
as the Corvidae, which includes jays, crows, and magpies. The raven
is found throughout most of the Northern Hemisphere in a variety of
habitats. Ravens are abundant in Canada and the Rocky Mountains.
Favoured habitat is remote, heavily-forested wilderness, seacoasts
and wooded islands. The raven is a permanent resident in the Arctic,
withstanding temperatures of -80 degrees Celsius. The Migratory Bird
Treaty between the United States, Canada and Mexico was amended in
1972 to include the Corvids, thus giving federal protection to these
species.

The raven is the largest species of songbird and largest all-black
bird in the world. Ravens have large, stout bills, shaggy throat
feathers, and wedge-shaped tails. Ravens are 20-25 inches in length,
with a wingspread of about four feet. Their plumage is entirely
black, with green and purple iridescence. Both sexes the same
colour; males are generally larger than females. They will attack
hawks, owls and eagles who intrude on their territory.

Ravens are excellent aerial acrobats and can soar to great heights.
Ravens move quickly with seemingly slow wing beats. Their courtship
display flight is quite dramatic and the courtship process requires
the passing of many tests. Ravens first breed at 3 or 4 years of age
and mate for life. Once they have bonded, a pair will seek out an
isolated nesting spot, at least a mile away from other ravens. Nests
are often built on cliffs or in the tops of large trees. Ravens will
build a new nest on top of their previous nest.

Ravens begin courtship behavior in January, and by March adult pairs
are roosting near their nesting locations. The female lays from 3 to
7 oval eggs, which are greenish and covered with brown or olive
markings. Only the female incubates the eggs; she is tended by the
male while on the nest. Young ravens leave the nest by the first
week of June. Ravens consume a wide variety of both plant and animal
matter and are scavengers who also prey on small animals. Ravens
will hide or cache food supplies. They also have the habit of
regurgitating undigestible food in the form of a pellet. Ravens are
long-lived in the wild possibly up to 35 years; one captive bird
died of old age at 29 years.

Come, night! come, Romeo! come, thou day in night!
For thou wilt lie upon the wings of night,
Whiter than new snow on a raven's back.
Come, gentle night; come, loving, black-browed night,
Give me my Romeo: and, when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.
Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare(<WBR>1595) act 3, sc. 2, l. 17

There is no mistaking the raucous call of the raven; the deep,
resonant "kaw" is its trademark. The raven can produce more than 30
distinct vocalizations. They fly with their mouths open during hot
weather. Ravens are considered among the most intelligent of all
birds. They learn to imitate a variety of sounds, including the
human voice. Their calls include guttural croaks, gurgling noises,
and a sharp, metallic "tock." Ornithologist John Terres states that
corvids have "the highest degree of intelligence"<WBR>. Zoologist Bernd
Heinrich shares that the raven is "assumed to be the brains of the
bird world", while animal behaviorist Konrad Lorenz gives the
raven "the highest mental development"<WBR>. In a 1991 paper, Irene
Pepperberg of the University of Arizona attests they may share "the
cognitive capacities" of many primates.

"We saw a raven very high above us. It called out, and the dome of
the sky seemed to echo the sound. It called again and again as it
flew onwards, and the mountains gave back the sound, seeming as if
from their centre; a musical bell-like answering to the bird's
hoarse voice."
Dorothy Wordsworth

Myths, Stories and Legends
The raven has played important roles in cultures, myths and
literature. Ravens disobeyed Noah by failing to return to the ark
after being sent to search for land. The raven was used as an emblem
by raiding Viking warriors. In Norse mythology, the god Odin used
two ravens named Thought and Memory, to fly the world each day in
order to inform him of what was happening. Ravens are also
associated with many deities from different cultures: Apollo, the
Greek God of the Arts, healing and light; Athena, the Greek Goddess
of Wisdom, learning and war; Hera, the Greek Goddess of Childbirth,
home and marriage and The Valkyries, the Norse Goddesses who
selected those who would die in battle. Freyja, the wife of Odin and
Goddess of Leadership, led The Valkyries and was able to take the
form of a bird. It was said that she sent the trance state from
which knowledge and wisdom emerged. The Roman College of Augurs
revealed secrets told to them by ravens.

The story of Elijah the Tishbite, the prophet, being fed by the
ravens is told in 1 Kings, Chapter 17. God commanded Elijah to tell
King Ahab, the husband of Jezebel, that God was angered with him for
allowing Jezebel to worship, and encourage others to worship, Baal,
the Storm God The God of the Old Testament was a harsh God who
demanded repression and denial of other faiths - One God above all
Gods. God's punishment for Ahab and his people was drought that
would last until God allowed rain again. God commanded Elijah to
hide by a brook and that ravens would come and feed him every day
while the drought took its toll. After the slaughter of the prophets
of Baal on Mount Carmel, God sent rain, thereby usurping the
authority of Baal.
Verse 4: "And it shall be, that thou shalt drink of the brook; and I
have commanded the ravens to feed thee there."
Verse 6: "And the ravens brought him bread and flesh in the morning,
and bread and flesh in the evening; and he drank of the brook."

The spiritual importance of the raven to Native peoples is still
recognized. Many view the raven as the creator of the world and
bringer of daylight. The myths of the raven are a strong social and
religious element of their culture. In many myths, Raven is a wise
guy, trickster and practical joker who instilled his greedy,
mischievious spirit in everything he touched. He likes pleasure only
and dislikes uncertainty. He is both cautious and greedy. Patience
is not a strong point. The Raven in these myths was no ordinary
bird. He had remarkable powers and could change into whatever form
he wished. He could change from a bird to a man, could fly and walk,
and swim underwater as fast as any fish. Ravens themselves are
thought of as birds of balance between man and nature.

Almost every tribe has a legend about how Raven got his black . The
Haida say that once, when Raven was white, he would go out at night
and fly as high as he could in the midnight sky. One night when
Raven was flying he didn't notice how high he was until he was lost.
The further he flew the more lost he became. One day he finally saw
the earth again and he returned. No one recognized him. Raven saw
his friend the Rabbit but Rabbit didn't know him either. He told him
he was Raven. Rabbit said that it couldn't be, as Raven was white.
Rabbit encouraged him to look at his reflection in the stream and
Raven saw that he was as black as the midnight sky. Raven knew he
had stayed too long in the night sky and had become the same colour.
That is how Raven got his black.

In Greenland the story is slightly different. The raven and the
diver were once white birds. They were not happy and thought it was
very dull to be white. They agreed to help each other by painting
designs on each other. They took black lamp soot and the raven
painted a nice black design on the diver. The diver was pleased and
started to paint the raven black with white round patches. When the
raven looked at the result he found a patch he thought was not good
enough. He started to fix it himself, but it got worse and the raven
got angry. In his anger, the raven ended up completely black as he
covered himself with soot all over. Since then the raven still flies
around, angry and black, shouting out loud.

In Cornish legend, King Arthur became a raven after his death - the
bird associated with the Celtic War Goddesses. In the Welsh legend
The Dream of Rhonahwy written in about 1200 AD, Rhonawy, a warrior,
fell into a deep sleep while waiting to go to battle the Anglo
Saxons at Mount Badon, and was transported into the dreamworld. In
his dream, Owein (Yvain) was playing a game with King Arthur.

Celts loved quarrelling and infighting, if they had no enemy to
fight they were quite content to fight with each other. As Arthur
and Owein played their game, their two armies started to quarrel.
Owein's army was made up of 300 ravens - some versions say his
warriors shapeshifted into ravens. Arthur's men started harrassing
the ravens, when Owein protested, Arthur said "Your move." A second
report met with the same response. The third time Owein allowed the
ravens to fight back. Arthur's men started to complain , Owein
said "Play on." The last messenger came reporting that if any more
of Arthur's men were killed he would be unable to defend Britain
from the Anglo-Saxons. Owein called off his birds. The game was
ended and so was the Battle of Badon, the foes had agreed to
postpone the battle for one month. When Rhonawy awoke he had been
asleep for three days and three nights and the battle had been
postponed for one month.

Owein (Yvain) was the son of Morgan Le Fay who was born of the Irish
Morrigan. The Morrigan is the most prominent of the Irish Mother
Goddesses and is closely associated with sexual potency, war and
death. She decided the fates of warriors in battles. The Morrigan
was able to metamorphose into a raven or a crow and was said to
hover over battlefields as fighting raged below. She often appears
as The Washer at the Ford, the war Goddess who waited by rivers and
streams,sometimes as a woman and sometimes as a raven, and
determined the fate of each warrior as they passed by.

In the Mabinogion, we learn the story of Bendigeidfran or "Bran the
Blessed" .He was a giant with superhuman strength associated with
the Celtic cult of the head. He ended up being beheaded and his
head, according to legend, still continues to speak. His head is
buried under "White Mount" in London, which is assumed to be the
Tower of London, and acts as an amulet of protection for the island
of Britain. Bran means "raven" and his story is the possible source
of the superstition that the kingdom would be safe as long as ravens
are kept at the Tower. If they become lost or fly away the Royal
Family would die and Britain would fall.

The sad tale of Deirdre of the Sorrows is contained in a manuscript
from the 9th century. There were disputes between the Kingdom of
Ulster and Queen Maeve of Connacht and her allies. Fergus, who had
been King of Ulster, supported Connacht rather than his native
Ulster during the raid. Fergus had desired to marry his brother's
widow, Nessa. She would only agree if he allowed her son, Conchobar,
to be King for one year. Deirdre was the daughter of the chief
storyteller of Conchobar. The druid Cathbad, the new King's chief
advisor, predicted her great beauty and that many Ulster warriors
would die because of her. The men of Ulster wanted to kill her but
Conchobar hid her under the care of a nurse as he intended to marry
her.

One winter when she was old enough to marry, Deirdre saw a raven
drinking the blood of a freshly slaughtered calf. "I could love a
man with hair like the raven, cheeks like blood and skin like snow."
and her nurse told her there was such a man. His name was Naoise,
son of Usna. Deirdre and Naoise met and eloped to Scotland with his
two brothers. Conchobar was furious but dispatched an offer of
peace. They agreed to all return if Fergus accompanied them for
safety. Conchobar had Fergus delayed and them all murdered with the
exception of Deirdre. Fergus's son was travelling with them and he
was also murdered. Fergus left Ulster and offered his services to
Queen Maeve. Deirdre lived with Conchobar for a year but she never
overcame her grief and killed herself by jumping from a chariot.

The Romany admire ravens for their loyalty to their tribe. The
ravens are said to hold tribal councils and will gather in large
groups, or murders, much the way crows do. If a raven goes against
the laws of their tribe, they will commit suicide by diving into the
ground from a high place.

Superstitions
There are a great many superstitions surrounding ravens. To some
Native tribes they are a good omen but to others they are not. Some
Native Americans view them as the "Messenger of Death" and this is a
common theme among cultures. If one is heard croaking over a house
it portends a death or an illness before long. If the bird actually
flies around the chimney then the persons fate is sealed. Some
theorize that this is because they have such an acute sense of smell
they can sense decay from a remarkable distance. If ravens are seen
flying towards each other, it is an omen of war to come. Scottish
deerhunters view them as a sign of a good hunt. If they face in the
direction of the clouded sun it is a prediction of hot weather on
its way. If they are busy preening themselves it is a good
indication of rainy weather.

In closing...
Ravens continue to awe, inspire and intrigue us as they balance
between sky and earth; man and nature; knowledge and wisdom. Their
tenacity, determination, intelligence, teamwork and extraordinary
endurance are lessons in survival for us all in an increasingly
uncertain world. They are certainly the stuff legends are made of.
Now I must go, it's midnight and I think I hear someone gently
rapping ....

Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary,
Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
As of someone gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe, 1845

The symbolic meaning of the Raven in Native American Indian lore describes the raven as a creature of metamorphosis, and symbolizes change/transformation.

In some tribes, the Raven is considered a trickster because of its transforming/changing attributes.

Often honored among medicine & holy men of tribes for its shape-shifting qualities, the Raven was called upon in ritual so that visions could be clarified.  Native holy men understood that what the physical eye sees, is not necessarily the truth, and he would call upon the Raven for clarity in these matters.

Foremost, the Raven is the Native American bearer of magic, and a harbinger of messages from the cosmos.  Messages that are beyond space and time are nestled in the midnight wings of the Raven and come to only those within the tribe who are worthy of the knowledge.

The Raven is also called upon in Native ritual for healing purposes. Specifically, the Raven is thought to provide long-distance healing.

The Raven is also a keeper of secrets, and can assist us in determining answers to our own “hidden�?thoughts.  Areas in our lives that we are unwilling to face, or secrets we keep that harm us - the Raven can help us expose the truth behind these (often distorted) secrets and wing us back to health and harmony.

Road Runner Wisdom
Keynote: Mental Speed and Agility
Cycle of Power: Spring and Summer
The road runner is a streaked bird, approximately two feet long. It has a crest upon its head, and as with any bird with such, it reflects an activation of the mental faculties. It lives in cactus and mesquite areas, and these should be studied by anyone who has this bird as a totem.
The road runner eats grasshoppers in large quantities. Again, for those with this totem, the qualities and characteristics of this prey should be studied. It will provider further insight into the role the road runner will play in your life.
The road runner is actually a ground dwelling cuckoo. It has adapted to life on the ground. It has almost lost the power of flight, but on rare occasions they do fly. Its greatest ability is that of running. It can run as fast as 18 miles per hour.
The road runner teaches mental agility and speed. Those with this totem will learn to think quickly and on their feet. The road runner will help you learn to shift your though processes with speed and agility. Mentally, you will find it necessary and easier to stop, shift, and then run in another direction if necessary.
The tail of the road runner acts like an air brake. It facilitates stops and shifts in the mental process. It also implies an activation of the kundalini in a manner that will enable you to manifest your thoughts. Instead of planning and never completing, there will occur increased opportunity to plan and set those plans in motion.
Individuals with the road runner as a totem are always thinking. It is sometimes hard to follow their train of thought, but if they can be slowed down, they can show you connections and stimulate ideas you had not thought possible. Their minds are always at work.
