Happy Holidays! Global Unity Events for December- Keep checking back, the list keeps growing

What a wonderful time of year! Diwali, Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanzaa are all celebrated as winter looms. Festivals of Light and Celebration. This year, in addition to our annual festivities, many are uniting to celebrate the auspicious date of 12-12-12 as well as 12-21-12, the beginning of a new cycle in the Mayan Calendar.

Research shows that group meditation has the power to change our planet. One such study showed a lowered crime rate in Washington DC (http://www.mum.edu/m_effect/dc_md.html) Others show that we can change the structural qualities of water with our words (http://www.thewalkingtiger.com/Studies.htm)

Dr Edward Bach said 'The Creator of all things is Love, and that everytinhg of which we are conscious is in all of its infinite number of forms, a manifestation of that Love, whether it be a plant or a pebble, a star or a dewdrop, man or the lowliest form of life. It may be possible to get a glimpse of this conception by thinking of our Creator as a great blazing sun of beneficence and love and from the centre,  an infinite number of beams radiate in every direction, and that we and all of which we are conscious are particles at the end of those beams, sent out to gain experience and knowledge, but ultimately to return to the great centre.....The development of Love brings us to the realisation of Unity, of the Truth that one and all of us are of the One Great Creation."

So, let's welcome opportunities to join with others in consciousness. Pray, meditate, attend services, practice your faith. And this month there are so many opportunities to Unite in consciousness! These events offer humanity a chance to practice Unity. Since many of you have inquired "what is going on? how can I participate?" a list of some of these global events is posted below. Many will be streamed online.

MONSANTO and WHY IN THE WORLD ARE THEY SPRAYING

Here is the movie you MUST share with everyone you know! So many of us have rallied against GMOs in our food, and Californians will soon be voting on GMO labeling. Just in time, the makers of What in the World are They Spraying have released their newest film Why In the World Are They Spraying. No, it is NOT a conspiracy theory film! It features a long list of well-know and respected scientists and in its brief hour and 13 minutes,  this film connects the dots between those nasty Chemtrails in the sky and Monsanto GMO seed sales.  What an eye-opener!

Please support the filmmakers by purchasing this film. They are encouraging purchasers to make free copies and give the film away. Spread the word! This film could tilt the scales for GMO Labeling in California.

The War on Health - FDA Expose

This documentary exposes why the FDA cannot possibly protect the health of Americans. Learn how big pharma has totally infiltrated the FDA. We can change this, but first we must understand the problem. Listen to the Progressive Radio Network - The Gary Null Show - at noon eastern daily for updates on actions we can all take together to bring about some positive changes.

 If you're like me, you may find the first 10 minutes a little sensational and old school, but please PERSEVERE!. This video is FULL of vital information and well documented research! This video has been placed online by the Progressive Radio Network (YouTube PRNfm) so everyone can share this knowledge. To watch the public meeting which took place before and after the premier of this video, please visit the PRNfm YouTube channel.

GMO Labeling - How Did Your Senator Vote?

The US Senate voted on Friday AGAINST the labeling of GMO's. The vote was 73-26.

Just after this bill was halted by our Senators, the animal and plant kingdoms chimed in to make their voices heard. First, it was reported on Friday that GMO modified corm, designed to protect itself from the western corn rootworm by creating a toxic protein, is now being devoured and destroyed by the very same insects it is meant to poison. (see Natural News)

And, in Austin Texas, KEYE TV reported on Saturday, one day after the GMO vote, that GMO grass started emitting cyanide gas and killed a herd of 15 cattle. Other nearby farmers growing this grass, Tifton 85, have found high levels of cyanide in their fields.(See news story) Scientists at the USDA are trying to determine the cause of the mutation (some think it may be the drought)

This story is incredibly sad and scary. In the US, 80% of all our processed food now contains GMOs! However, the animals and plants may have lovingly united here to provide us with an opportunity. They have just created a forum to end GMO's.

First, find out how your Senator voted here If they voted for GMO labeling, contact them, THANK THEM, and let them know their decision was correct - tell them about these most recent plant and animal cases. Share the links.

If your Senator voted against GMO labeling, inform him/her about the corn and the cows and that you WILL NOT be voting for them in November. Let's honor these animals by mobilizing our fellow citizens to facilitate change. NOW. We can recycle Congress and the Senate this fall.

Also inform your Senator that India, the largest country in the world, has mandated the labeling of GMO foods beginning January 2013. And Germany flat out banned GMO corn years ago!

Please share these stories with everyone you know, and inform them about the dangers of GMO's. Some good resources may be found here:

Organic Self-Watering Container Gardening

I have a lovely backyard but the wonderful trees also make for a good deal of shade and very late tomatoes! I learned how to make these buckets from watching some YouTube videos by LDS Prepper (he has a complete self-watering system - very cool). These are self-watering for up to 3 weeks, then you need to add some water. They are totally portable, move from back yard to front as needed for sun. Instructions for building are under the video on YouTube.

UCLA study finds high fructose corn syrup makes you dumber!

So have you seen the new ad campaign for 'all natural corn sugar'? Ha! Bet you weren't fooled by that absurd marketing ploy....it's just another name for high fructose corn syrup. Some of its 'benefits' include: - comes from GMO corn, now there's a perk - linked to obesity - creates metabolic damage and stimulates overeating - linked to cardiovascular disease and high blood pressure And today, UCLA released the results of a study showing that high fructose corn syrup makes us dumber! So check your favorite can of soda, almost all contain the stuff. And get it out of the house.
