ModeratorThe title is pretty self-explanatory. Naturally, I’ve written a piece to launch it. 😉 I wrote it a few days after the election.

ModeratorWhat If?
When I saw the headline in the News-Press that Joe Biden had been declared president and winner of the electoral college… My stomach dropped.
Reverse back four years, November 2016. Exact same reaction when it was announced that Trump won. Disbelief and sick feeling. The sick feeling lasted for months.
From that month to this, how much has changed.
Now I’m sitting here thinking, what if somehow this election is not fraudulent? What if the many, many sources I’m reading are all indeed deluded conspiracy theorists and Trump is a deluded conspiracy theorist and the election is going to stand and Joe Biden becomes president?
What if?
What if my future holds mandatory vaccines not only for me but for my fragile 91-year-old mother, what if my future holds masks and social distancing for the foreseeable future and this “pandemic” is never declared over and we all have to be tested and if we’re positive we get forcibly quarantined…
What if?
I reckon there is a part of me that wants to scurry down that path of fear. But it’s more an academic part at this point. The emotional fear hook has lost its sharp point.
Because none of it truly affects me. None of it affects the me that is real, it doesn’t even really affect my physical-mental-emotional bodies that are “stuck“ in this plane of existence here on earth.
There is a shining, immutable force within me and of me that simply does not acknowledge any of that. It sees it and it recognizes and accepts it as a reality but it knows that it is not real in the truest sense.
And is this feeling itself an illusion, whistling in the dark, pretense?
It isn’t pride and it is not arrogance. What is it?
I have that Harrison Ford/Indiana Jones half smile pulling up one side of my mouth. I can see his face and that little knowing quirkiness or even cockiness. It says, you can’t fool me. It says, I am stronger than you can possibly imagine and I will not be defeated by any evil.
It shines with light and with good.
Never mind what Harrison Ford may actually be. It is that image of his face and that little cocky half smile that fills my mind and that I recognize as a shining blade of goodness and truth and justice that is within me, unconquerable, brilliant and unbent and forever victorious.
I remember what my boss Freda told me all those years ago, when we were all fired from the Music Academy of the West because of the personality clash between her as executive director and the board president. She looked me in the eyes with her deep brown Native American eyes beneath her shining white helmet of hair and said, pressing gently in the center of my chest with her forefinger, “They can’t get you here.”
Thirty-plus years ago and I’ve never forgotten that. I didn’t really know what she meant. I was much younger and I had just lost my job and I was frightened. But something from her transmitted into me, the truth that “they“ indeed cannot get me here, in my heart.
Even truer today than back then. Now there are so many more “they’s” that are “out to get me.”
And they still can’t get me in my heart. This nebulous place, this knowing, this conviction… There isn’t really even a name or label for it. It simply is. And perhaps that lack of name and label is what saves it and saves me. It is like air or mist on a very foggy day, tule fog down to the ground and out to every horizon. It is everywhere and permeates everything. You cannot kill it or destroy it. It permeates all and it is all.
And they can’t get it, either.

ParticipantThe stress that I was feeling last week felt like I had injected acid into my blood stream, my insides were burning and I couldn’t feel safety or inner peace for a week straight, perhaps a bit longer than that.
I had conversations with my dad because he voted for Biden and I was really scared that he was going to be mean to me because I voted for Trump. I was very wrong, he loves me and respects my difference of opinion, which I am very grateful for. My mom also voted for Biden, knows that I voted for Trump, and is okay with it. That plus all the reassuring words coming from so many people with so many different perspectives, I have more or less reached my center once again, I know that the Divine Mother’s plan is gonna move forward regardless of who is president.
There is plenty of science that supports the theory that we are all energetic beings and that there is an unstoppable ascension of energy happening, so the people that have committed to the darkness, or lower energies, will eventually either go mad and die, or find the light within themselves and ascend alongside the rest of us. I still have my beliefs that Trump will win the election but I have found a new neutral point so I cannot be shaken as hard.

ModeratorHi Anael,
That’s a lovely story. Wonderful that your folks are so open-minded, and wonderful that you took the plunge and told the truth.
In turn, I’m taking baby-brave-steps by sending a few diehard Biden/Dem supporter friends links to JP Sears’s hysterically funny (or weep-worthy, depending on your mood) new video entitled, How a Civil War Could Start! It’s facts wrapped in satire delivered matter-of-factly by a wild-eyed guy with long red hair in a newsroom type setting, his coat in tatters, tie askew. I discovered JP a couple of months ago with his shrewd COVID satire videos (i.e., “Pandemic Hotline,” “Why the Lockdown Should Last Longer”). I’d love to send certain friends his video, What It’s Like to Believe Everything the Media Tells You, but am afraid they would think I was just criticizing their gullibility…which has some validity to it.
Of the 3 friends, one is still speaking to me via text. The other two…don’t know yet. They are literally my oldest friends of 60-plus years so I hope I haven’t irreparably offended them. They’re basically my family.
Keep those truths coming.
Best,

ParticipantThe numbers for Trump were higher than those for Biden on election evening. Then overnight the numbers made a huge flip to put Biden well in the lead.
I didn’t believe it then and I don’t believe it now.
What is being discovered as pertains to evidence of tampering and fraud in this election tells me it is going to be a very long time before we know the actual victor.
I pray it is Trump. Biden has very dark plans for the country. First thing he started to work on was a national mask mandate law, with prosecution for non-compliance. Not a positive for our collective future.
I won’t believe the universe hates America so much as to let Biden/Harris have power for four years. -

ModeratorHi Wolfsong,
Thank you for your participation here.
I’m in 100% agreement with your words. And like you, I hope the Universe doesn’t hate America!
I’m keeping abreast of the voting fraud evidence stories, largely through Suzi’s Patreon site. Sidney Powell, attorney, is large on that stage.
As I noted in one article today (or possibly a video), it was remarked that it’s not just about the US. If the US, supposedly the first of the first worlds, is taken over by foreign interests manipulating our politicians and voting system, there’s no hope for any nation to have honest elections. The people have zero power when our votes, our voices, are obliterated in the way that is being attempted now in the US.
Let’s all keep believing that truth wins out, honesty and decency prevail, decorum and consideration are the norm, and kindness prevails always. None of those attributes are visible in the spectacular fraud that is apparently being perpetrated directly against the American people right now.
Listen to and read the positive messages on GAoG and other high vibrational sites. It can be helpful to seriously curtail ingestion of doomsday pundits and vitriolic media personalities, whichever “side” they favor. Balance, balance, balance. (Says the Libra…)

ParticipantThank you for the welcome.
Wise words sister, thank you so much.
It can be very easy to be caught up in the fear paradigm these actors against the free Democratic election process have perpetrated for their own gain.If America is let to fall to their intentions the world is in trouble. However, I think we have an advocate in Donald Trump. I think they underestimated their opponent if they think he would concede to losing an election that was in truth stolen from him.
We are not as blind as those actors hope we are. That an older man showing signs of dementia is the best the DNC has to offer as potential leader of the free world? And his second, a woman with a horrible professional record in public service would be next after him?
Of all the candidates on the Democratic side these are the cream of the crop? I believe they were chosen because they give their allegiance to monetary gain and power, not the future well being of Americans.
In truth I think what the dark forces in government fear most is the day we all stand together as Americans.“In reality they’re not after me they’re after you. I’m just standing in the way.” President Donald J. Trump
Balance, balance, balance. Indeed. As long as the light shines on truth the darkness shall not be able to hide from it.
Blessings,
WS

ModeratorWell said, WS!
I just have to share…when I read “…these are the cream of the crop?” my eye saw, “…these are the cream of the crap?”
A Freudian eye slip, perhaps. Or just telling it like it is!
I’m not ashamed I was a registered Democrat for many years. Nor am I “proud” to be a Republican or even a Trump supporter, necessarily. In fact I’m quite leery of many beliefs held by Republicans / conservatives. And politicians, just by their choice of career path, aren’t exactly trustworthy, IMO.
I’m just glad that circumstances led me years ago to a trail of breadcrumbs warning me that all is not what it seems and the stories I’d taken for granted were, in fact, just that. Fiction.
I somehow blurted out to 2 different people today what I now believe is true about 9/11. I took for granted that they were aware of the extreme unlikelihood that the stories we were told were, again, fiction. “You mean it WASN’T Al Qaida?” the first said plaintively. “But a bunch of my daughter’s friends enlisted to fight terrorism because of 9/11…”
I ended up giving her both GAoG and the Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth URLs and my business card, if she wanted to talk some more. She was a chance met (or not…) stranger at the nearly deserted mall in Santa Barbara.
The other, well that’s a tale for another day.
May all be well for us all,
Catherine-

ParticipantI’ve had a Freudian slip of that nature myself a time or two…dozen. 😉
Don’t get me started on 9/11. Notice the choice of date? The national emergency phone number, 911? OK, I almost started myself. Bad WolfSong, bad, bad. lolI just found this out. There is a prayer vigil that has been going on since the election and for America and president Trump every night since November 3rd.
Tonight’s session ended just seconds ago. I don’t know if that link is OK but if not I respect the need to edit. Anyone who is interested may search YouTube for the vigil and catch it live by entering, LIVE RSBN 2020 Election Prayer Vigil, into YouTube’s search window.Everything is going to be OK.

ModeratorCivil Discourse in an Uncivil World
I just had a most disagreeable conversation with my friend / neighbor Anna.
It started out innocuously enough with us agreeing that the mask mandates had gone too far and why aren’t the kids allowed back in school and the absurdity of the governor of Oregon issuing a decree that no more than six persons may be present for Thanksgiving in a home.
“Of course, they’ll never enforce it,“ said Anna.
I think now, but was not quick enough to say then, but why does such a decree even exist? What country are we in?
I hardly ever see this friend, but her goodwill and kindness have always been apparent. She drove me and my mother to the veterinary hospital when my cat Ivan was dying in 2008 and I knew better than to drive myself. That is the kind of good and helpful heart she exhibits.
Politics has never come into our conversations possibly because I don’t usually care about politics.
As it happens, she has been a lifelong Republican “except for Trump.“
And I have been either a Democrat or “just didn’t care,” except for Trump 2020. In 2016, I would’ve agreed wholeheartedly with her.
She was crossing the street to get to her car when we had this brief conversation. My ancient car was spewing toxic fumes and I was worried that she was breathing them.
It was only an hour ago but the details are already blurred. What I remember is that I was so increasingly upset at what I viewed as her being brainwashed by the mainstream narrative that several times I interrupted her and talked over her.
We ended the conversation with me noting that it’s not whether the person is good or bad, it is a matter of good versus evil.
In her view, Trump is evil.
I said, “And I hold the opposite view.”
She looked at me incredulously. “You think Biden is evil?”
“Yep.”
She looked at the ground for a moment and then said she had to go and walked away. I called after her, “I just have two words to add: Hunter Biden!“
She looked back with a half smile and a wave and was gone.
As I drove to the store I replayed the conversation. My stomach was churning. I am not an argumentative person. I am generally polite and kind and considerate of others. I don’t steamroller over people even during lively discussions.
But I had just done that. Not that Anna allowed herself to be steamrolled, she more than held her own.
The churning stomach persisted. There was a line to get in the grocery store and I drove on past. Being semiretired has its advantages, I’ll just come back tomorrow.
On the way home I stopped and pulled up Anna’s contact information on my iPhone. I had one mobile number for her and her husband and I didn’t know to whom it belonged. I haven’t texted her or him before but I did now.
“Hi Anna is this you or Tom? It’s Catherine. If it’s you I wanted to say I’m sorry for talking over you just now when we were talking! You are a dear friend and I was rude.”
And I drove home with a quiet stomach.
Not at all to my surprise, this is what I received from Anna shortly after.
“Hey Catherine it’s Anna- Seriously no apology necessary! It’s OK to have different points of view and it’s difficult not to get passionate about your beliefs. I am certainly guilty of that. I value our friendship too ❤️😻”
And that, I believe, is how we must navigate our relationships right now. With kindness and love and the ties of humanity that we all share with each other foremost, and our opinions, even our passions and beliefs, secondary.
Postscript. The phone rang at 11:11 AM as I finished writing this. It was Anna. And we had a lengthy, heartfelt, and honest conversation. We are much more on the same page than I had imagined and I know great healing is happening within us both right now.

ModeratorThe Accidental Patriot
I was lying in bed on Monday January 4 thinking the usual gloomy thoughts about how we’re all going to be taken over by Communist China if the Joe Biden election stands even though it was fraudulently and criminally achieved…
And I thought about our Constitution. I had the clear thought: If the Constitution stands, we stand. And I’m starting to cry. I can’t believe this. I can’t believe how emotionally wrapped up I am in the love of our country and the love of our people and wanting us to be free, wanting humanity to be free. This is something so intrinsic and so important to me, and so deep, I don’t even realize it most of the time consciously.
The level of emotional depth this reaches astonishes me and humbles me.
I’ve never considered or imagined myself particularly to be a “patriot.“ Yes, singing the Star-Spangled Banner and God Bless America can bring a tear to my eye and a lump to my throat (which makes it hard to sing).
But this feeling right now, this is something new. This is something breaking my heart. Breaking my heart open. I am seeing how America is God given. God protected and God loved.
Not that other countries are not the same. Not that the peoples of all countries, of all worlds, are not loved and are not God protected. The people, yes. The countries and governments that envelop those people, none can match the perfection of freedom and rule of law that envelop America, that protect and honor our citizens. No other citizens in the world have the protections that we do here – freedom of speech, of gathering, of worship. All of which have been eroded so massively in the last year that we are hardly America anymore, at least to look at.
There is a special magical alchemical process that went into creating the Constitution of the United States and this country that we have evolved into.
When I was thinking about the Constitution it was a litany: We the people of the United States of America…All of a sudden I started speaking out loud. We the people of the United States of America are… it was very deliberate, firm and clear, a declaration to whomever and whatever was listening. I felt I was speaking on behalf of millions.
And I can’t even remember everything I said. I recited what we are and what we want. We want to be united. We want to be Love. We want to be secure. We want freedom. We want to be caring and compassionate of others.
This must’ve gone on for a minute or two. We the people of the United States of America are…
And at some point either before or after this recitation, I suddenly stopped thinking of all the “Biden voters“ as the other side of a divide, the misguided brainwashed masses to which I used to belong.
I don’t for a minute think anyone who voted for Biden did so because they actually “love“ him. I think they voted for “not Trump.“ And of course many of them weren’t people at all, but electronic blips or marks on a piece of paper generated by criminal foreign and domestic entities attempting to take over this country.
On the other hand, people truly do love Donald Trump. And I think that love is so fierce because people who believe in Donald Trump do believe in America, do believe in the Constitution, and do understand that there is a deadly threat to it, to us, to our country, to every single person who lives here. They understand that Donald Trump understands this and is the pinnacle or figurehead of an elusive and invisible gathering of determined, pro-America powers that are just as fierce and determined to keep America, America, as we are.
And the next realization somewhere in there was not only do I not hate, deride, ridicule, or dismiss Biden voters, but they didn’t know what the hell they were doing. They had no idea what they were really attempting to vote into office (because I don’t for a minute believe it’s going to stand). They didn’t know that they were voting for their own destruction. How could they know? They have been hypnotized by the deliberately deceptive, all-pervasive, censorship-mad media machine.
People who voted for not-Trump also want what is best for themselves and their families, the economy, the country, humanity. Hardly anybody is evil and wicked in their hearts. Most of us are good folks and want to help ourselves and others have the best lives we can.
This feels peaceful now. I believe that when the not-Trump voters come to realize that their choice has unknowingly imperiled the very things they thought they were protecting and promoting, they will rise up en masse with the determined and fierce citizens of this country who did vote for Donald Trump, knowing it was a vote for freedom, for our Constitution, for our way of life and for America.
Because none of us really wants to be censored and vaccinated and social-distance-masked into loneliness and illness, despair and poverty and oblivion. None of us really wants to be living in Communist China-America.

ParticipantDear Catherine,
Thank you for your emotions, your passion, your love, your caring, your desire for good, right and Truth.
Nobody loves Trump, nor Biden, nor their Country. They only love their individual I inside this conscious body it represents. This is what they mirror out and in. This is how they co-create Time/Space and Space/Time. Body in and World out.
You have evolved to a level to Know this to Be True. “Others” are still in the process. You had the strength and the privilege to take years, they are presented with an opportunity to go through it fast and with a bang.
We Light workers have prepared and provided this opportunity for “them”. It’s their Realtime game to play and our earned privilege to hold the front row seats and observe while Being Of Service.
Rise above the old by let go, trust and accept All is well and nothing needs defending nor protecting. How would you protect pure Light? By holding it in a container? Holding it in an illusionary body?
You Know All. Love the Knowing!

ParticipantSascha Stone (a light WARRIOR living in Bali) and Tara Love Perry (amazing healer – see Magenta Pixie’s roundtables) – both amazing souls gifting the world did an interview on the 24th of Dec. (YouTube)
Tara beautifully states that those that came to play the dark roles are really having the hardest time now.
Is the game truly wrapping up ? are we just observing and holding our light as best we can while releasing our density as it arises ?
This morning I had another huge wave of abandonment and rejection pain arise to be released. The unconditional love embraced it and me.
I love you all here for allowing voices…
Thank you.-

ModeratorThank you, Lori, for your share. Sasha Stone and Tara Love Perry are wonderful. I’m pretty sure I saw that video, I try to catch everything Magenta releases. Sasha’s erudition could make him seem a bit pompous except he is SO passionate about helping humanity and Gaia and living in the Light.
Abandonment and rejection pain…oh, such wounds we carry. Hard. Hard. Unconditional love embraced it and you—wonderful!!
I always liked the verbiage my Reiki teacher, Carolyn Paige, used when commanding Angels and other Light Beings to help remove something (from us, or in clearing a home/building, whatever needs releasing and clearing). It was, “Please take this [_______] to the Light, or whatever is the most appropriate place for it at this time.”
Sometimes, things don’t choose to go to the light…but at least they’re given the option. I’m thinking mostly of discarnates in physical spaces, or blockages / implants / overlays in our bodies.
Back to your post. Yes, I do believe the dark role players are probably experiencing a very dark night of the soul at this moment. Especially since many if not most of them have no conscious clue what’s really going on. They maybe realize “I done bad” but not the abysmal depths of the badness.
May all find / experience / be / know Love. Know that we ARE Love.
Love & Light,
Catherine
