What On Earth? Ready to make a bigger ding in the Universe

"I never set out to be a filmmaker. But the moment I first witnessed the awesome mystery and beauty of the crop circles, everything changed. Somehow, the circles and their secrets filled me with a sense of wonder, of joy... and of hope (for myself, for humanity, for our world). Above all, I was filled with the desire to share this incredible experience. With everyone. Everywhere. So I became a filmmaker. I made "What On Earth?" - Suzanne Taylor

Reviews for What On Earth -

- "A brilliant job of bringing all the mysteries together and thoroughly debunking the debunkers." - Graham Hancock, Bestselling author of "Supernatural" and "Fingerprints of the Gods"

- "Brilliant, groundbreaking... incredibly beautiful and powerful." - Whitley Strieber, Bestselling author of "Communion"

- "Everyone should watch this movie!" - Rosie O'Donnell




Cheers to Suzanne Taylor!

Here's a progress report, courtesy of her latest newsletter:

[This Monday, March 12, I'll be pre-taping Rosie O'Donnell's TV show, in Chicago -- will let you know when it gets an airdate. If you want to have a coffee clutch in my hotel room on Sunday -- or can steer any media to me to interview me -- let me know.This is the first time crop circles will have been the subject on a talk show where the public can hear what's really going on!

On April 19, I'll be live on TV for Colorado Public Television's pledge drive when they show What On Earth?

I could come earlier and stay later, so be in touch if there's anything I could do with you. If you'd let me know you are interested in a get-together, perhaps I could arrange something with my fans in the Denver/Boulder area.

This also is a first, the first time that the movie will be broadcast on TV. The nice thing about my movie is that it's an evergreen, where my DVDs won't get old unless something startling happens. If it's that CONTACT gets into headlines, no worry -- my DVD stockpile would fly off my shelves!

It's pre-planning time for my TEDx West Hollywood event. No date yet -- I have a year -- and the first thing is that I need a core team. If you haven't already let me know you might be interested in playing a formative part of what we'll do to make something great happen, be in touch.

Also, I'd like a catchier name than COMING INTO ONENESS. A free DVD of What On Earth? to anyone who comes up with something better that expresses that idea!

Part of the daylong event, with three quarters live 18-minute talks, will be one quarter TED talks recorded at previous events, and I'll also send a free DVD to anyone who points me to one of those that we end up using.
Also, I am looking for a live-in assistant, in West Hollywood. Smarts for internet social networking, blogging, and YouTube play are a must!

And get on my blog for the latest post, Bosnian Pyramids Challenge What We Know. It's a mindblower!
Happy trails on the road to the next reality...

Suzanne]

One thing certain about all the stuff that is happening right now, there is a reason for the timing. 2012 looks to be a very interesting year. Hear my interview with Suzanne on Conscious Living - Empower Radio

Exploring Conscious Living and Conscious Connections - The Monroe Institute

~ What do I know? I know I have more to learn - always. ~ wendy and The Nightlights

I have never taken a class from The Monroe Institute .. but this information is very helpful and much of what I have discovered in helping to clear or assist "ghosts" is in line with this... "Ghosts" are not all that same... some have very specific roles and belong exactly where they are to learn or to help from that vantage point.

Others are guardians and protect a space .. they speak when they are in the presence of one who is open to learn... and so we grow... beyond the concept of "death" to embrace evolution of soul...

Here is Kevin, a Monroe Institute Facilitator, explaining a program called Lifeline. The program promotes advanced exploration of afterlife states.



From the main page of The Monroe Institute: "Human consciousness is evolving, awakening to the discovery of Self. All of us are participants in the evolution of consciousness, the next great leap for humanity. We perceive ourselves to be more than just our physical bodies. We are connected to the universe through nonphysical dimensions and a holographic matrix of timeless information. Life itself is not something physical and death something spiritual. For us, life's experiences have taken on a new significance. We marvel at the wonder of an emerging perception of reality that has been here waiting for us to realize all along."

This blog features a bit more info and some words from Robert Monroe

Men in Black? Real AND Unreal

 “I believe (and I may not be too lonely in this) that personal experience is the only validation that really counts---even if imagined (as in: “Wow this tastes delicious, but, unfortunately, it might only be my imagination”). - Doug Boyd

No matter how loud the chorus saying scientific proof does not exist to validate near death experiences, ghosts, spirits, ufos, higher intelligence in a non-corporeal form and many other paranormal, supernatural, heightened consciousness and altered state awareness experiences, etc., having any one of those experiences is a game-changer. And it may be more realistic that the science for that proof has simply not been consolidated, organized and condensed into a palatable formula to facilitate mainstream awareness and peer validation.     

So be it; Science will catch up. In working with spirit guides, one quickly learns that for every known an equal amount of unknown lurks, prodding an awakening from the stupor of defining reality as only that which can visibly be affirmed on the manifest plane. The invisible stuff is ever-present, and sometimes, far more REAL.

Centuries of shamans have schooled us on the learning curve that goes along with having a tangible awareness of real and unreal. From their efforts we upgrade the known and designate real and unreal as equal planes of existence in terms of mind activation. From them, we learn no matter what the definition of the plane of existence, the result of the encounter produces a measurable, cognitive impact in the experiencer capable of shifting his awareness. Whether awake or in a dream, the mind is engaged and interacting. Results ensue.

Level of self-awareness may determine the type of spiritual encounters we undergo and what access, if any, to higher information is available as a result. And, as with our own formless, limitless spirit essence, information residing in that realm might well be limitless. We do the work and the universe tosses out another koan.

Unfortunately or fortunately, all the traditional hallmarks of success and brilliance in the manifest arena don't register in/on the non-linear, non-physical counterpart. We are challenged to explore our psyche and develop inner skills seldom tapped in our daily routine. Toss in a dose of metaphysical prowess and we may become adept players in the world of the so-called illusion. The flip side of entering that plane of awareness? We learn all in the manifest plane are living in the illusion. True Reality has more in common with the dream plane than our manifest realm.     

Reality shifted for me a long time ago when the metaphysical aspect of my living experience became more apparent, even when disguised as ordinary. Surprise is still part of the equation. So here goes - a mind awakening introduction to the altered states of Men In Black.

When it comes to the MIB experience, some have tried to identify a pattern (Nick Redfern). However, it might be that greater numbers of related encounters are under the radar because they are not clearly distinguished as such or they take place on a plane not often considered in the Men in Black category: Subconscious encounters such as a dream or lucid dreaming.

My own engagement with a group of men in black transpired in a vivid dream. I wish I could say the characters were as dynamic and charismatic as the Hollywood portrayal. They weren't but it was the no-nonsense demeanor that gave me the impression the message they delivered was important and I had some form of prior agreement that allowed them to make contact with me to trigger a response or an action on my part.

The scenario was simple so as to be almost insignificant. Significance was later underscored in waking time when the events of my daily routine acquired a paranormal flair and - in a mind bending display of an unknown element to influence our view of daily events - opened my awareness to the possibility of an incredibly powerful sub-routine playing alongside our everyday auto-pilot program.

I don't want to ramble on too long here in the set up and I may need to use multiple posts to related it anyway. So this is the introduction... to be continued.

UFOs continue to confound ... everyone

UFO reports skyrocketed in the first week of 2012, with 36 of 50 states logging UFO sightings. (Source: Mufon) 

The public is fascinated with UFOs but an association with those types of events or reports can present unexpected challenges. In writing her highly praised book UFOs, Leslie Kean gave much needed credibility to the topic by furnishing detailed and extensive documentation from a host of publicly identified Generals, Pilots and Government Officials yet she admitted a reluctance to tackle the topic because of the stigma.

Reporter Angelia Joiner shared her own trials of how her life changed after breaking the story of the Stephenville Lights incident. Hear her story on Conscious Living on Empower Radio.

Included here is another interview with Angelia. After months of keeping a low profile, she's back on the interview circuit to help promote a couple of upcoming events: The Texas MUFON Conference, March 3rd and the 2012 Women's UFO Symposium in May (Glen Rose, Texas, May 19-20), a first time event showcasing the women of Ufology.

There is no question something is going on. I have not seen a UFO but I have experienced other unexplained phenomena associated with contact. So I am very curious about what others have experienced and what they have to say in that regard. I appreciated Betty May Ockerl sharing her story of The Mysterious Lindsey Lights, also available on Conscious Living.

You can do your own exploring and investigating through these recommended films.

The following is a 1979 documentary featuring Dr. Jacques Vallee, presented by Rod Sterling. This presentation includes a fascinating piece at :30 with the story of a telepathic engagement and subsequent dialogue between a military officer and alien beings who also showed their ship to those present for the event.

Covering a wide variety of topics in a very matter of fact manner, highly watchable. 



If the trend continues in 2012, UFOs will be demanding more attention. One might hope, beyond an onslaught of sightings, there will be additional evidence to add to the equation. Then again, there may be a reason for the apparent "lack" of evidence that even an army of credible public sightings won't change.

Honoring the Beautiful Present -- and the Children of the light

The Christian of the future will be a mystic or he will not exist at all. - Karl Rahner



Beyond psychic, whatever term one might have for them, in my own experience, these children are very much like those who have come before with one special distinction ... there is more positive attention. In valuing their natural psi/intuitive abilities there are greater chances for them to receive positive support rather than being assigned to the role of outcast and shunned into closeting their awareness.

Those who arrived prior had few resources and/or communities to share connection and more reason to remain silent about their metaphysical experiences. However, as lightworkers - or whatever term might be appropriate for you - the role of those who came before has been to lay a foundation to create a greater receptivity to and understanding of this new wave of co-creators. In sharing a common alternative view, we can appreciate the learning curve and the challenges that come from choosing to journey on the road less traveled. Or not.


It is such a great joy to see the new wave of consciousness now flowing through in human form and to know they will be given opportunities to awaken, foster and preserve their abilities as will consciousness in other form rise to the challenge of creative representation.

If you wonder about the gifts of the children or your own gifts, you are not alone. This short film captures the essence of what it is to be a star-seed, indigo, crystalline, a child born sensing connection to his world rather than separation and struggling to find a way to marry that view with a world view that is still in denial of our metaphysical twin.

Director Elsbeth van Noppen says, "I feel… is about children who experience their environment differently compared to most of us. They travel their own way against the mainstream and dare to see the world with a pureness of vision over and over again."


I feel... (Ik voel, ik voel, wat jij niet voelt...) from Elsbeth van Noppen on Vimeo.

Resources for working with Psychic/Sensitive Children.

Before you get too deep into the Indigo Community give another thought to the possibility there are other factors involved and such qualities have been present - simply under valued, discouraged and suppressed.

The future is born for us to see where we are going in our conscious evolution. We are the web and those collective connections are being awakened and activated with every incoming energy wave: Conscious Ascension.

No matter what the prophecy or the prediction, there is an underlying code. Some events are kept hidden from common view to circumvent projection and allow the work to determine the outcome.

What will we do? Each has his own blueprint. We are far greater in our abilities when working for the good of the many. Answers come in living out the days.

Free to be curious without limit ...

"Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up. This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering its a feather bed.” ~Terence McKenna


So much is being attributed to "the shift", it requires sifting through a great deal of flotsam. And that is the beauty of the illusion. When it comes right down to it, clarity resides in narrowing the focus to the inner plane, directing thought to allow all that no longer serves to slough off. As one becomes solid in his presence, his creation and awareness of his projections, he shifts the vibration to repel that which no longer resonates and attract that which reveals the next *plane/phase/state/dimension.

At no time are we alone, rather, we evolve our ability to sense, connect to and view our co-creators and collaborators. What we see in that view is the result of the mindstate we have chosen to inhabit and that determines the nature of our future projections/engagements.

If one persists in allowing only that which serves his highest good to keep him company he will make extraordinary progress in reconnecting to all-that-is while in a conscious state. Even so, the path will still offer the usual detours and potholes. What will have changed? Perception. Potholes and detours will reveal themselves to be friends rather than foes. And the energy given to fear will redirect and shift to empower transformation.
 
My engagement with the consciousness I call "The Energy" (Talking to Nightlights) opened me up to an amazing view of "reality" - that allowed for a multidimensional perspective. Life continued as it had but the extraordinary experiences, metaphysical and paranormal, began to compound and my awareness of a greater totality than what we currently allow in our conscious knowing became a focal point.

A tiny detail: it has been amazing to see the lights flicker on a daily basis as a reminder and confirmation that we are connected beyond our ability to fathom to groups of compatible/like (although unseen) others. Since 1997 that 24/7 light interaction has been a constant in my life. No comparisons to offer as the activity is quite unique. I do know that my connection has drawn the attention of a greater circle of unseen others to whom I became more energetically/vibrationally noticeable because of my thoughts, activities, focus on connecting and receptivity to higher guidance. 

Recent conversations - telepathic is the common method - have included assurance that change will bring about expanded awareness of our fellow creators in the cosmos. Far from being a cataclysmic crash, the event will simply catalyze new wrinkles and folds in our timeline and the resulting insights will inspire a greater desire to invent causes to rally humans together rather than support the current agenda for division.

The day is coming when we will understand as a species how small and fragile our position in the manifest plane and very much wish to preserve it.

And those who might be called our benefactors - (Those others who are sending telepathic greetings: "We come in peace.") are choosing to remain hidden/cloaked among (and from) the masses, engaging all who have done their homework, connecting with any who can pick up the vibration.

I asked about that hiding thing. Why are they staying out of sight? The answer implies a sense of humor. They say that we humans seem to have limited ability to determine who is and who isn't one of us, what is or isn't "real", and that which is present in only this dimension or shared with another. We are limited in our knowing of who and what we are. And we are being tested to determine whether we are worthy of intervention.

That limitation points to a very real vulnerability and an awakening to the possibility of a food chain in which we are on the bottom rung. Now there's a fine mess. 


Following up with a question that begs further inquiry, I have asked if there is a reason they want or need to hide from us? (I can think of quite a few myself.) Their answer is a bit of a surprise. And it is the only one they offer: "We don't want to frighten you."

The Legacy of Beezer and Boomer ... and Doug Koktavy

"If you agree that pets are family members, you'll understand my crazy story. And if you have an aging pet or are going through a pet's fatal illness, I hope my experience helps in some small way to lessen the pain, dispel the fear, shed light on the process and provide a little peace. Most of all, I hope to encourage the realization that this isn't the worst of times; it is the richest of times." - Doug Koktavy

*A note from Wendy - Host of Conscious Living on Empower Radio: Over the years of working with animal lovers and animal caregivers and sharing their stories I have read numerous books. This book shines a light on the intimate moments still left to share as the life form you have come to know, love and cherish downshifts in preparation for transition to a higher plane.

We are very ill equipped to deal with death (and grief) in Western society. Doug manages to showcase how that might change and has two charming canine helpers assisting him in mapping a divine blueprint for that process.

The Legacy of Beezer and Boomer is an extraordinary read -- what should be a heartbreaking story of the grief of pet loss is a journey through transformation, release and transcendence. (Note: tears will flow.)

Emerging in the midst of the sadness is a deepening awareness and connection between all involved and an expansion and awakening to a greater capacity to love.

Inspired and inspiring... a remarkable legacy from/of two very beloved friends.




Praise for Beezer and Boomer -

“What a fabulous, heartfelt, and enjoyable read (assuming you don’t mind some crying). Doug adeptly describes his transition from skillful attorney, who takes pride in controlling the world around him, to a soul-searching student who, under the tutelage of his beloved four-legged mentors, strives to live in the moment. In the genre of ‘dog vignettes’ it’s mighty refreshing to read a journey of feelings rather than simply a comical description of life with a dog.”

- Dr. Nancy Kay, author of Speaking for Spot: Be the Advocate Your Dog Needs to Live a Happy, Healthy, Longer Life www.speakingforspot.com

The Quest to uncover the Crop Circle mystery

“Can so many formations, over so many years, adhere to such a sublime design principle, without anyone ever, in a quarter of a century, coming forward to hint at the geometric properties they were encoding into their designs?” - Researcher Allan Brown

I don't write about and research this metaphysical stuff because I am merely curious, although that curiosity compounds with each passing day. I write, inquire and explore because I am an experiencer. The experiences that relate to this post include shamanic encounters with light beings who created mini crop circles in my yard. They wanted me to know of their presence among us and described themselves as transdimensional beings.

I have had numerous, spontaneous paranormal encounters and direct and telepathic contact with others who have no visible form. As a result, I am completely convinced that those of us who are undergoing this profound shift in how we view reality must boldly face our fears and the likely potential for ridicule to follow the threads in an effort to connect the patterns and reveal the language and information encrypted in the symbols and code.

Why? Because someone/something is offering a glimpse into a greater reality. Reason and logic will take us halfway there. The connections and the dots are quantum. Gut hunches and intuition must be called into play. We are expected to evolve our conscious awareness to make these connections.   

The initial awareness is we are more than we seem, as is everything we encounter. Now is our moment to explore the unfolding mystery. Presented with carrots in every form, including crop circles, lead with your strength and follow the light. One is called to engage an amazing reality - where magic is the main ingredient.


This is a fascinating feature. At 54:41 is a segment that suggests the capture on film of the live creation of a crop circle. At 56:00 follow the ball of light and the speculation into who, what, and how.

More questions. Are those who enter crop circles affected at a molecular level. Is there a residual biological impact we have yet to connect?

A great piece of work here.
