PRO-LIFE, PRO-CHOICE,

& the SPIRITUAL PROCESS OF INCARNATION

Julie Redstone

May 8, 2014

The story of incarnation from the soul level of being to the physical level is a process, not a momentary event, and where a soul is in this process can only be determined on an individual level.

------------------------------

When it is recognized by human beings that all of life is sacred, partaking of a Divine origin, then it will become impossible to justify the taking of human life for any purpose, even when that life is unknown or undetermined, and even when that life, through the use of free-will, has committed acts against its own humanity.

The taking of life for any reason has been considered wrong by many on the religious right of the political spectrum, and by many others who are less sure of their point of view concerning abortion and a woman's right to make choices concerning her own body. Yet here, as with so many other controversies that claim to be about physical matter or physical events, the truth of what it means to 'take life' lies in a gray zone of individual accountability and individual interaction on the energy level and on the soul level with the soul of the being who is about to take birth or is beginning to take birth.

The story of incarnation from the soul level of being to the physical level is a process, not a momentary event, and where a soul is in this process can only be determined on an individual level, some souls choosing to incarnate more fully at the time of conception or during the early months of pregnancy, and some souls waiting till long after physical birth to fully inhabit the physical body that has already arrived on the plane of matter. This cannot be known except through contact on the soul level, and through awareness that the incarnating soul at the time of conception is already initiating contact, for there is no physical event that does not have its origin in consciousness and in intent.

A soul chooses to take birth, accompanied by the choice on the soul level of the parents, or in some cases the mother alone, and in rarer instances of the father, who will bring that soul into physical embodiment in the case of the mother, or nurture and raise it in the case of the father. By virtue of the contact that is made at the time of conception and progressively thereafter, the soul begins to mix its energy with that of the higher energy bodies of the mother, which is why many mothers-to-be have intuitions, dreams, or visions concerning the child that is to come. This is due to the fact that on an energy level, along with the DNA, a stream of consciousness is already beginning to be laid down that is alerting the mother's awareness of the incoming presence. This is not to say that a physical being could actually exist, based on this early interchange, or even that the full consciousness of the one who is to come is present. Yet it is a significant factor in making a decision about terminating pregnancy, for such termination often leaves energetic residues in the higher energy bodies of the mother, who may feel at a much later date that she has lost or left behind something that was very valuable to her. Such a feeling can exist even when there has been no conscious desire to bear a child, and no apparently practical way of doing so at the time. The energetic residue of the original interchange can create a longing that begins to be felt in later years, for something that was not completed.

Each incarnation of an incoming soul is unique, however, and the degree of energetic imprinting varies from individual to individual and from soul to soul. What is true, however, is the principle that nothing physical can take place that does not have its origins in intention and consciousness. This must be remembered when considering the adoption of any physical procedure, but especially one that creates effects on the soul level.

In relation to the history of debate concerning abortion and the various conditions under which it may be justifiable, the emotional and physical well-being of the mother and sometimes of both parents must be considered with respect to decisions about terminating a pregnancy. However, often the emotional uncertainty, indecision, and even of turmoil that can surround such a decision is an important part of a learning process whose origins exist at the spiritual level, the decision to become pregnant not really being an 'accident,' but rather a process or encounter that takes place in order that the mother-to-be learn something about her own emotions and needs, her relationship to her own body, and her feelings and perceptions concerning the nature of life.

What we as a society need to support, therefore, is not 'pro-life' or 'pro-choice' as a political position, but the spiritualizing of the whole area of sexuality and reproduction so that the sexual arena which can result in pregnancy becomes infused by the awareness of the meaning and responsibility of pregnancy. This needs to happen within the consciousness of young people long before an actual pregnancy takes place.

What we as a society also need to support is the development of greater options for sustaining and providing for the life of children whose parent or parents cannot raise them, through an adoptive process that is more humane, more love-filled, and more accessible to the entire community of hearts that wishes to provide for all children.

Finally and most importantly, what we as a society need to support is the spiritual understanding that we have a responsibility not only to ourselves and our own plans for life, but to other souls on this plane of experience and beyond, including the souls of the children we are to bring into the world. Such a responsibility is a sacred one, and it cannot be abridged by a decision to terminate a pregnancy, even though this may end the physical manifestation of a particular event. Our sacred relationship with other souls must be recognized and must become a way of life for us as we endeavor to create a society in which we love and nurture the wellbeing of all.

Lada Ray 5-1-14… “New #predictions 5/1/2014 re. #Obama, the near future of the #USA and its #collapse, Russia, China and the global shift”

Usually I do not post “predictions” or “prognostications”. However, I sense a balance in what Lada Ray states on her predictions page, and since many of the things she has predicted in the past have come to pass, I am posting this here.

I’m only posting this first section on that page, and the rest of it may be read at your discretion. Here blog ishttp://futuristrendcast.wordpress.com

——————————————————————-

New #predictions 5/1/2014 re. #Obama, the near future of the #USA and its #collapse, Russia, China and the global shift

US President Barack Obama will have a very difficult 2015. This will be personally a very hard year for him. Specifically, watch the time between February 2014 and January 2016. Either some time during that period, or the entire 12 months will be filled with problems, scandals and more. Obama’s policies will keep backfiring, his rating and reputation around the world will keep sliding down. This prediction is based on the amount of bad karma Obama would have accumulated by then. the more bad karma – the worse his 2015 will be.

So far, he is doing a marvelous job racking up all the bad karma he can possibly collect, and eventually, the chickens will come to roost. Is there a threat to his life? I do not believe so, although I do not rule it out completely.

Obama’s situation next year is reminiscent of Saddam Hussein’s situation: in 1991 Hussein started a war with Kuwait (a US protectorate). The war was admittedly provoked by powers that be and spun by the Western media. In response, he got Desert Storm and near invasion of his country by the US. But let’s remember, this was the time when, arguably, cooler heads were still in existence in Washington. However, in 2003, USA decided to attack Iraq, as all cool heads were gone or corrupted by then. The result was the demise of Iraq and Saddam Hussein personally. Bad karma in combination with really bad stars is what happened here. Obama has a similar configuration in February 2015 – January 2016 to Saddam Hussein’s both in 2003 and 1991. However, he also may get unexpected help – could be from unknown beneficiary(ies). Therefore, I do not believe his problem will result in a loss of life.

Could Obama be impeached? Possibly. It depends on whether the decision-makersdecide he is less harmful than anyone else in power, or not. If you think the decision-makers I am talking about are NWO, US corporations, or anyone else in the West, think again. Nothing of the sort. The decision who is less harmful to the world will be made between Moscow and Beijing.

Most likely, it will be deemed not a good idea to destabilize the US. Biden, who will take power until elections if Obama is impeached, is admittedly worse. And if US is destabilized, a truly war-mongering president may come to power in 2016. This would be like a psychotic 5-year-old with nukes and the largest war toys in the world let loose in a burning house. This is why China will most likely NOT rock the boat, and might even help Obama a bit when he appears in trouble. They don’t want a WORSE president to come to power. The unknown beneficiary who might come to Obama’s rescue next year (only just enough to keep him from toppling over) may be China.

USA collapse: many expect a collapse starting in earnest in 2014. I don’t see it that way. I see the problems visible to a naked eye and “feel-able” (say, to people on the street) start in earnest mostly in 2016. Some problems may be visible in 2015, but more so in 2016. US will be in a real collapse mode by 2018 and later. Most importantly, the collapse won’t happen overnight. It’s important to remember that this will be a process. Stay tuned for my future special reports and videos about how it will develop . Hint: very differently from what many people believe. Of course, the cracks in the US system and the petrodollar dominance had been developing for a while, but just about any expert totally misjudged the timing and velocity of the US collapse. They misjudged the fact that US would so audaciously and recklessly manipulate markets, including treasuries, gold, silver and stocks. The only market, it turned out, US could not manipulate any more is oil. But natural gas IS being manipulated and the price of natural gas is being suppressed via fracking.

The experts further misjudged the US determination to hang on to its crumbling empire (unlike USSR, that just let go).

They also misjudged how much the rest of the world craves stability – and this is what US has been successfully exploiting. China and Russia need stability in order to develop properly and steadily – something they had been denied for many years previously. They value stability so much that they would rather support US so it would not start crumbling prematurely and cause a global crisis.

Even more so, same it true for the EU. EU would rather be a US lap dog and do what US says than rock the boat, risking destabilizing its already shaky economy.

This is what US has been capitalizing on big time and this is how US has kept in much better shape than predicted by just about anyone. It has been exporting its problems, inflation, economic imbalances and violence through wars, to other countries.

Do I think other countries are right in supporting the giant on clay legs? No, I don’t. Do I understand them? Yes.

China and Russia are buying time. They need more time to pull all the pieces together and put them in place. Will they actively pull the rug from under the US? Nope. It will happen naturally. As a matter of fact, by interfering in Ukraine, the US is doing everything to expedite its own downfall.

In my opinion, Russia and China have been too complacent and slow in executing changes that are necessary to transition to the new world economic system. By interfering in Ukraine, the US unwittingly has given Russia a kick in the rear to get moving decisively in the necessary direction.

Did US think the result in Ukraine would be so contrary to its plans? Of course not. They felt they had to act now, while Russia was busy with the Olympics. They felt it was their best chance to destabilize Ukraine and cause problems for Russia, thus slowing it down. They didn’t think it would all go so terribly wrong; that as a result they would lose Crimea; that eventually they would lose Ukraine, and possibly many more countries. They didn’t think they would expedite Russian economy’s transition to the East, the dumping of petrodollar and more.

But I did. I predicted this would happen in my early article: Ukraine Part 6. Striking Geopolitical Similarities: Georgian War – ..., and in others.

USA, Consciousness, and Karma: Moreover, the US can’t act in any other way. It’s wired to act in a specific way. What I mean is this: USA’s global historic and karmic role is to agitate and foster change – oftentimes by aggression, wars and other negative actions.

This is in fact the historic role of the West as a whole – to be expansive, aggressive, and to export problems. This wakes up the yin nations, helps them in understanding and recognizing their identity and potential. When the yin nations push back to reclaim their freedom and identity, progress and expansion of human consciousness occurs.

In the 3D world of the yin-yang duality, the male, yang, ego-driven side will always bring destruction and devastation if it’s not kept in check and if it’s in imbalance.

This will continue as the US is extremely imbalanced. The USA was allowed to play with fire since the USSR collapsed. It was allowed to believe that it was the only superpower left standing and therefore it’s infallible. The god complex that developed in an underdeveloped 5-year-old with nukes, world’s biggest war toys, and – you guessed it… busy exerting its dominance over the burning house, called planet Earth.

It was a delusion for the US to think that they could ever be allowed to remain the only superpower. This situation is extremely imbalanced and cannot continue for long. That’s why the US empire, which was allowed to go unchecked for over 20 years has to crumble and diminish. How severely crumble and diminish will depend on the karmic balance at the time of the collapse.

The rebalancing is needed desperately. Many people, both inside and outside the US are working on rebalancing the corrupted American system.

Consciousness of the American people is completely shut by consumerism and distorted/manipulated media. Americans are in desperate need of waking up from the matrix.

The USA will have to rebalance eventually, whether it wants it or not. The EU will also have to rebalance. The more delays in rebalancing, the harder the process will be. Some people in the US, EU, and all over the world are awakening – and this is a hopeful sign.

The world as a whole will be rebalanced, the world shift will occur, and the new world will emerge. I will write about that more soon. Stay tuned.

Important new predictions about Russia and Eurasia

I said above that the US/West play the karmic role of the aggressor to push other nations, who have the preponderance of yin energy, towards decisive action, thus fostering change and expansion of consciousness for such nations and all humans. This is why some countries, who have too much yin in their DNA, get invaded relatively easily.

In this respect, it has to be understood why no invader was able to successfully invade Russia. Yes, in long by-gone days there were invaders that attempted it and seemingly succeeded. However, eventually, Russia pushed back and took more land from the invader wannabes as a result.

So why is it impossible to invade Russia and why is Russia able to pull out of seemingly losing situations as a winner. If you know history, you will see what I am talking about. This is also seen now in the ongoing situation in Ukraine. (Read my Ukraine and Russia-related predictions below for more on that.)

This is because Russia is a bridge between East and West. Russia’s global and karmic role is to keep balance and stability in the world. While West is overly yang and East (together with what is called the “Global South”) has traditionally been overly yin, Russia is designated as a scale of balance. Russia is supposed to be perfectly balanced between yin and yang of the Earthly 3D existence.

It is a very hard place to be and it can cause a lot of identity problems. This is why Russia is always torn between West and East, Europe and Asia. Russia’s traditional crest is the double-headed eagle, one head of which is turned east, another west.

This is why Russia is stretched wide between Europe and Asia (for extra balance), and this is why it always experienced so many problems with invaders – the predominantly yang nations always wanted to shift the yin-yang balance in their favor.

But balance must be protected. This is why Russia cannot be invaded. When pushed, it will push back much stronger than anyone anticipates because its intrinsic chi is much deeper and stronger than aggressors will ever understand. In fact, because of its intrinsic yin-yang balance, Russia can lean on its yin side to repair its yang side, and vice-versa. The smartest geopolitical strategist in modern history was the 19th century German Chancellor Bismark, who left a testament to his nation, in which he told Germans to never attack Russia. If only they had listened.

In fact Europe and Asia are one continent called Eurasia. It is the largest and the most important continent for the balance on our planet. Eurasia was artificially torn apart by the long-standing differences between East and West and by their seemingly irreconcilable yin-yang split. But we have the chance to reunite what is supposed to be whole. The Great Eurasia is being formed now via Eurasian Union and other cooperative east-west organizations. See my article: Global Consequences: Russia Announces Eurasian Union and New Currency Altyn.

What we are seeing in Ukraine is in fact an attempt to sabotage the process of rebalancing of the yin-yang and reunification of the entire continent of Eurasia by the aggressive/destructive/yang forces in the US and EU. As predicted, this sabotage won’t succeed.

Russia must stay in balance of the yin-yang in order for the rest of the world to be in balance. Is this possible? Yes, I believe it is. I believe we are moving towards the time of greater yin-yang balance in the world. I will be expanding on how and why this will happen in the future.

At present, the West must become more yin and East – more yang. This process is unavoidable and it is happening in front of our eyes. This is why the excessively yang forces in the West are resisting the change so desperately. The world of inequality and aggression they created to enrich themselves, is crumbling.

World War III and the US

There will be NO World War III, but it’s not for the lack of trying on the part of the US, UK and EU. When I say no WWIII, I mean direct confrontation or nuclear war between super-powers.

However, there is an ongoing war between major powers for control of resources and territories. In this ongoing war, US will continue trying to use proxies, as in Ukraine. However, their return on “investment” will continue being extremely low, until they will weaken sufficiently for their grip on the world to relax enough, so the new shoots of a very different world could emerge – coming true now.

CHOMSKY: US Leaders' Panic Over Crimea Is About Fear of Losing Global Dominance

AlterNet / By Noam Chomsky

Chomsky: US Leaders' Panic Over Crimea Is About Fear of Losing Global Dominance

American red line are firmly placed at Russia's borders...and the annexation of Crimea crossed them.

May 3, 2014 |

The current Ukraine crisis is serious and threatening, so much so that some commentators even compare it to the Cuban missile crisis of 1962.

Columnist Thanassis Cambanis summarizes the core issue succinctly in The Boston Globe: “[President Vladimir V.] Putin's annexation of the Crimea is a break in the order that America and its allies have come to rely on since the end of the Cold War—namely, one in which major powers only intervene militarily when they have an international consensus on their side, or failing that, when they're not crossing a rival power's red lines.”

This era's most extreme international crime, the United States-United Kingdom invasion of Iraq, was therefore not a break in world order—because, after failing to gain international support, the aggressors didn't cross Russian or Chinese red lines.

In contrast, Putin's takeover of the Crimea and his ambitions in Ukraine cross American red lines.

Therefore “Obama is focused on isolating Putin's Russia by cutting off its economic and political ties to the outside world, limiting its expansionist ambitions in its own neighborhood and effectively making it a pariah state,” Peter Baker reports in The New York Times.

American red lines, in short, are firmly placed at Russia's borders. Therefore Russian ambitions “in its own neighborhood” violate world order and create crises.

The point generalizes. Other countries are sometimes allowed to have red lines—at their borders (where the United States' red lines are also located). But not Iraq, for example. Or Iran, which the U.S. continually threatens with attack (“no options are off the table”). Such threats violate not only the United Nations Charter but also the General Assembly resolution condemning Russia that the United States just signed. The resolution opened by stressing the U.N. Charter ban on “the threat or use of force” in international affairs.

The Cuban missile crisis also sharply revealed the great powers' red lines. The world came perilously close to nuclear war when President Kennedy rejected Premier Khrushchev's offer to end the crisis by simultaneous public withdrawal of Soviet missiles from Cuba and American missiles from Turkey. (The U.S. missiles were already scheduled to be replaced by far more lethal Polaris submarines, part of the massive system threatening Russia's destruction.)

In this case too, the United States' red lines were at Russia's borders, and that was accepted on all sides.

The U.S. invasion of Indochina, like the invasion of Iraq, crossed no red lines, nor have many other U.S. depredations worldwide. To repeat the crucial point: Adversaries are sometimes permitted to have red lines, but at their borders, where America's red lines are also located. If an adversary has “expansionist ambitions in its own neighborhood,” crossing U.S. red lines, the world faces a crisis.

In the current issue of the Harvard-MIT journal International Security, Oxford University professor Yuen Foong Khong explains that there is a “long (and bipartisan) tradition in American strategic thinking: Successive administrations have emphasized that a vital interest of the United States is to prevent a hostile hegemon from dominating any of the major regions of the world.”

Furthermore, it is generally agreed that the United States must “maintain its predominance,” because “it is U.S. hegemony that has upheld regional peace and stability”—the latter a term of art referring to subordination to U.S. demands.

As it happens, the world thinks differently and regards the United States as a “pariah state” and “the greatest threat to world peace,” with no competitor even close in the polls. But what does the world know?

Khong's article concerns the crisis in Asia, caused by the rise of China, which is moving toward “economic primacy in Asia” and, like Russia, has “expansionist ambitions in its own neighborhood,” thus crossing American red lines.

President Obama's recent Asia trip was to affirm the “long (and bipartisan) tradition,” in diplomatic language.

The near-universal Western condemnation of Putin includes citing the “emotional address” in which he complained bitterly that the U.S. and its allies had “cheated us again and again, made decisions behind our back, presenting us with completed facts with the expansion of NATO in the East, with the deployment of military infrastructure at our borders. They always told us the same thing: 'Well, this doesn't involve you.' “

Putin's complaints are factually accurate. When President Gorbachev accepted the unification of Germany as part of NATO—an astonishing concession in the light of history—there was a quid pro quo. Washington agreed that NATO would not move “one inch eastward,” referring to East Germany.

The promise was immediately broken, and when Gorbachev complained, he was instructed that it was only a verbal promise, so without force.

President Clinton proceeded to expand NATO much farther to the east, to Russia's borders. Today there are calls to extend NATO even to Ukraine, deep into the historic Russian “neighborhood.” But it “doesn't involve” the Russians, because its responsibility to “uphold peace and stability” requires that American red lines are at Russia's borders.

Russia's annexation of Crimea was an illegal act, in violation of international law and specific treaties. It's not easy to find anything comparable in recent years—the Iraq invasion is a vastly greater crime.

But one comparable example comes to mind: U.S. control of Guantanamo Bay in southeastern Cuba. Guantanamo was wrested from Cuba at gunpoint in 1903 and not relinquished despite Cuba's demands ever since it attained independence in 1959.

To be sure, Russia has a far stronger case. Even apart from strong internal support for the annexation, Crimea is historically Russian; it has Russia's only warm-water port, the home of Russia's fleet; and has enormous strategic significance. The United States has no claim at all to Guantanamo, other than its monopoly of force.

One reason why the United States refuses to return Guantanamo to Cuba, presumably, is that this is a major harbor and American control of the region severely hampers Cuban development. That has been a major U.S. policy goal for 50 years, including large-scale terror and economic warfare.

The United States claims that it is shocked by Cuban human rights violations, overlooking the fact that the worst such violations are in Guantanamo; that valid charges against Cuba do not begin to compare with regular practices among Washington's Latin American clients; and that Cuba has been under severe, unremitting U.S. attack since its independence.

But none of this crosses anyone's red lines or causes a crisis. It falls into the category of the U.S. invasions of Indochina and Iraq, the regular overthrow of parliamentary regimes and installation of vicious dictatorships, and our hideous record of other exercises of “upholding peace and stability.”
