U-Predict on Google

In 2012, one of the best reality shows on TV was a series of debates of Republican presidential candidates.  The series was known in social media as the “clown car”….. 

So here we are 2016; we have 17 candidates for president running on the Republican ticket alone.  And what a list it is – The Donald, Chris Christie, the brother of an unpopular president, Jeb Bush and so forth.  It is also more than a year from the election.  What can we learn from a debate this far out, or was this just another bout of reality TV.  Using the U-Predict theory of free reading by various readers to give us a large, overall view of the first debate, I ask for readers to pull one card.  I was given 10 cards by 10 readers.  We did have synchronicities – The Hierophant, Four of Cups and The Fool (what a set of synchronicities for this topic). 

The Synchronicities

The Four of Cups – this one card defines most of the campaigns we’re seeing for president.  YOU’RE NOT HAPPY.  I CAN FIX IT.  OK, how do you get happy?  Do we call people names and show them your dislike for what they believe or their lifestyle?  Do we quote religious books?  Do we blame other religions?  The purpose of the Four of Cards is to remind you that you have to own your own dissatisfaction.  Are any of these people going to be able to fix your personal problems? Karmically, would you be better off fixing them yourself?

The Fool – All the candidates are starting out on a big adventure.  They are stepping up big time:  are they stepping up or stepping in it – you decide.  The Fool represents that we are just starting out.  This is the earliest the presidential race has ever started.  What we are hearing now is basically done for entertainment – they call it getting attention/voters.  This concept was strengthened by the fact that one of the Fools was pulled in reverse.  Considering the questions that were ask at Trump, one has to wonder if someone was being called out as The Fool.  A reversed Fool also represents the outlandish statements that were made.  Again, they are looking for donations and followers – not setting policy. That doesn’t mean don’t listen; just realize that in our crazy world things will change between now and next November.   

The Hierophant – The Hierophant represents one thing – dogma.  It may be a dogma of religion (yes, we hear religious dogma from our politicians); it may be the dogma of a standing political party or subgroup (Tea Party or Right Wing Conservatives).  Are any of these people offering us anything but the same narrow solutions that we have heard for over 12 years?  The Hierophant stands for dogma and the Four of Cups stands for what you dislike.  So, is their dogma going to fix what you dislike?  Or do you dislike things because their dogma seems to have swept the country?

Now the single cards:

The Magician – All the candidates are magicians.  They all have the answers.  There are two types of magicians, those that have studied and have power and then there are the charlatans.  Charlatans are the tricksters.  They will tell you whatever you want to hear, they will give you sound bites that make you feel amazed.  But does it mean anything?   Do they really have power and wisdom or are they just hitting people’s buttons.  Is it too early in this process to determine who should be the candidate?  Realize that the man who currently holds the office was seen as The Magician by many.  When he had not fixed America’s problems in 90 days based on campaign promises, he quickly fell into dislike.

The Lovers – Are you really in love with one of these people right now? Do you love where they stand, do you feel they promise you prosperity?  Are you in love with the idea of living in the past with the social mores of the 50’s?  (No birth control, women had little to no value in the work place, etc.) Do you understand what that would mean to your lifestyle?

The other meaning of the Lovers is to make the right choice.  Do you want to live in the same divided, hate-fueled society that we live in?  Or do you want to work on electing people who cherish peace on earth?  Do you want to become politically literate so that you know who to elect to protect the earth?  Many people want nothing to do with politics.  They don’t vote; and the same people get elected  – madness is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.

The Star – Yes, there is hope.  There is always hope. Generations will die, society will change.  But do we want to see a 10-year change into a more harmonious society or do we want to wade through 30 or 40 years of hate and discontent (and planetary destruction) before we begin to change.   Hope – we can believe in hope while corporations destroy the environment, or we can decide to act on the idea of hope.  The 60’s were about reaching out in love and peace.  We took to the streets, both in political marches and love-ins, and we did make a profound change in society.  We discovered we are star stuff, we are golden, and by being involved we could have a hand in recreating the garden.

The 10 of Swords – Perhaps not now, but after the third debate some candidates will face the 10 of Swords.  They won’t raise enough money to continue, their popularity will tank. (Fox’s referral to Donald Trump’s business failures and terrible treatment of women were unexpected attempts to expose the man for who he is). 

However, there is another meaning for the 10 of Swords.  We the people can say “enough.”  What do we need in our lives?  Better jobs, assurance that our healthcare, including birth control, will continue, as will the continuance of Social Security for when we reach an age or physical condition when we need to slow down?  Who stands for these things?  Not just on a national level, but locally as well.  We can be one of the people putting a sword in someone’s back – not literally, but in the back of their political career.  But we have to get involved and understand who is running for what to do it.

The final card was the Eight of Pentacles, the card of hard work.  This card can represent someone working so hard in the trenches that they can’t see the big picture.  Of any prognostications I could divine, that one probably nails it best.  All these people are working like crazy to make a small percentage of the electorate happy, but not looking at the big, broad picture.   What do we really do about the poor, the disabled (especially our veterans), and the underemployed?  Do we want to send another 100,000 American kids into another Middle-Eastern ground war where we lose thousands in death, and have many more thousands come home permanently disabled?  With our scientific minds, is it not time to toss fossil fuels and go with renewables?   Yes, there is a much bigger picture.  There were glimmers of hope in a few remarks made by the candidates last night, but were there enough? U-Predict…

Final note:  When we used the same method to predict the outcome of the Republican convention back in 2012, NOT ONE SINGLE MAJOR ARCANA CARD was drawn.  Of, course, even a novice reader would understand that this was an indication that the people involved were absolutely clueless about the truth of the situation.  THIS TIME IT WAS THE EXACT OPPOSITE.  Of the 10 cards 8 were Majors.  Now with that many Majors in a reading, the most common interpretation would be that a profound, probably karmic change was overtaking this field and this period of history.  I have to admit that I did not see a great deal of enlightenment on the stage last night, but things can happen.  We may truly be moving into the age we have all waited for.  However, as an old Hippie war protestor, I still think it will happen more smoothly if those of us who believe in love, hope and peace do our part to move the process forward.

After the release of the movie “The Matrix”, many people felt they had discovered the secret to life – it was run in another dimension by people with dubious intentions.  Angry people quit the “Why me God?” reference and instead interjected “Damn you people in control.”  So after a few references to The Matrix in the Reading Room, I decided that was a good question to investigate on U-Predict.

 The first thing that was fascinating was how old this idea is in philosophy.  It is NOT just an idea that took hold after the first movie’s release; for centuries, different philosophers and theologians claimed that control of the world was completely and totally out of our hands, and that we needed to determine who had control. It was an open question to the philosophers, or determined to be God by the theologians.  ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis )   The outcome decision between the Reading Room and the Project TAROT card synchronicities is even more thought provoking.

The Reading Room included: IvyLieberman, Jean Hamilton-Fford, Patti Phare-Camp, Mary Nale, Deb Frueh, Jean Maurie Puhlman, Anita Perez, Marnie Heart, Maggie MoonTarot, ReeNee Cummins, and Dax Carlisle. 

The first question was “Is the Universe a giant computer?”  Mary Nale threw out a show stopper when she asked “Is this why I dreamed I was walking on a circuit board?” Dax added to the mystery by stating "My Kingdom is not of This World..." is a clue to the multiple realities. Then the cards began answering. Synchronicities were the High Priestess, The Emperor, and the Lovers.  Looking at this, the Reading Room said there was an overriding intelligence that was beyond our comprehension.  However, when it comes to this dimension, Ivy IvyLieberman stated “we are alone and create our own controller and are really happy that way.”   The Lovers was the interesting card – what choice needed to be made?  A few more cards uncovered the concept that many people don’t want to know how it really works.  Some people are happy with the idea that God makes all the decisions.  Others want to believe in a randomness that is beyond their control.  Only a few people ask these kinds of questions to the universe.

The second question was “Is reality a dream?”  This brought up the idea that is popular in Eastern religions; nothing we see or experience is real.  The follow-on question gave us a more fascinating answer “Is reality a simulation?”  The Reading Room came back with a mind-blowing answer; it is a simulation for those who choose not to learn or to realize self-responsibility.  ReeNee’s comment was that this would explain the clients a tarot reader sees over and over again with the same problem.  It may also give us the wisdom to stress the importance of self-responsibility in future readings.  Of course, the natural follow-on to that question is “People believe “You create your own reality” is that true?”  The answer was a strong yes from the Reading Room – both from personal experiences as well as what the cards had to say.  Even if there is an over-riding intelligence within the Universe, it wants to interact with us, wants us to understand what our thoughts and actions truly mean.

The next question is one of the hardest and most painful to ask “If it is interactive, how come bad things happen to people - is it bad thinking?” The cards and Readers gave a broader interpretation than just “bad things are caused by stinkin’ thinkin’ “.  The information that poured forth is that, yes, negativity and the stress it causes hurts people.    Mary Nale intuited that “the mind creates the drama.” And Deb Frueh reminded us that “people like drama - no two ways about it.”  In addition the cards also said that things happen when people are completely stuck.  They may have a very complacent life, but there is no growth, no challenge.  Then the Universe may take over and hand the person the challenges they need to grow or come to greater understanding.

The final question set was about defining what we are.  Are we just one’s and zero’s?  Are we just a string of data?  While discussing the string of data idea, Dax brought up "Morphic fields" and "Torsion Fields" – to scientific theories to explain who or what we are.  The cards and readers both agreed that we are much more than a data string or a string of information.  Anita Perez stated that we are “energy and consciousness but that information by itself is not conscious.” Becky Graywolf added “Yes, we are way more than ones and zeros. We are also information and experience for our souls.”

The overall Project TAROT moment cards further clarified and strengthened the messages the Reading Room contributed.  The most often read cards were the Chariot and the Lovers.  On first glance, this looks like a strange pairing and an impossible read.  But considering the subject, and the answers to the questions it interprets as we are all driving our own chariots on our own journeys the decisions we make (The Lovers can represent choice) determines if our journey is pleasant, bumpy or if we overturn the cart (our lives) completely.  The Universe is a feedback loop.  What we put out comes back until we can exist harmoniously with the world and Universe around us. 

We also had a Lenormand moment, when Jean Hamilton-Fford pulled cards multiple times.  When asked for an in-depth explanation, Jean offered “The Golden Bear [card pulled multiple times] refers to putting on the mask we need to wear for whatever part of our journey we are on.   We become one with the Sun and have the key, the strength and the playfulness to find joy and wealth and happiness.” 

Mary Nale gave a beautiful intuitive reading on the concepts that we discussed during this week’s show “When the moon shines its light on us, in the deep hours of night we travel to the place where we receive the knowledge we need to survive.  What we do with this knowledge is a matter of how advanced we are in our personal journey.”  Are you aware of the information to improve your “matrix”? U-Predict!

Blogger’s note:  Many of us who participate in U-Predict have been part of a broader metaphysical community.  While many people only think of 

the New Age of the 80’s, this community stretches back a couple of centuries in the United States.  In the 1950’s and beyond, there were many predictions made about changes that would happen to the planet itself that would cause mast destruction and death.  What is interesting is too look back with today’s science and see one thing:  the predictions broadly identified change, but may have come up short in describing the exact event.  This can be accounted for by looking at the scientific knowledge of the predictor, and the popular science theories of the time.  It was, however, amazing to see in a matter of about a month several serious scientific blogs and articles talked about the kinds of changes that had been predicted.  And fortunately they were explained in a more modern, less fear-provoking manner.  So we wanted to ask Tarot to give us further information on what the planet is going through.

The Reading Room included:  Jean Maurie Puhlman, Ivy Lieberman, Camille Kea, WalkWithSpirit (Readings by Cary) and ReeNee Cummins.

Metaphysical prediction:  the poles are shifting.  In actuality, this is happening.  According to an article in New Scientist:  “This drift is due to the changes in the distribution of Earth's mass as the crust slowly rebounds after the end of the last ice age...”  However, since 2005 the direction has changed.  Science now feels that again the earth is trying to adjust to the melting of the polar ice and glaciers due to climate change.  From Tarot, we got that this is cyclical; and that one event feeds off the other.  Jean Maurie’s Angel Card (3 Gabriel) warned “prosperity arising from wise planning. Time to take the next step. Optimistic plans that turn out as expected.” So now that we know about this, we need to become activists to make sure these changes are planned for at a global level.

The next set of questions was about the fluctuations in the earth’s magnetic field.  Many sources, including CBS News talked about the fact that it was weakening at a much faster rate than it had in the past.  Here is where Tarot began to use archetypes to explain things to us.  The Reading Room had drawn a high number of Pages and Wands, plus a large synchronicity on the Ace of Wands.  Tarot was explaining that there was a lot of raw energy (wands) and potential (Pages) under the crust of the Earth.  Because of the potentiality of this energy, from time to time there would be geologic activity. However, the Tarot did NOT see a huge, Earth destroying upheaval in the future.  The Reading Room pulled both the 10 of Cups AND the 10 of Swords in synchronicity.  This also indicated that the activity would not involve everyone everywhere.  Some people would suffer disaster; others would even reap benefits as they tapped geothermal to heat homes and business and used volcanic rich soil to grow crops. Of course, with a question like this, we did pull the High Priestess.  She is there to remind us that the Universe is in charge, and that sometimes things happen and a level and for a reason we may not be able to comprehend.  One thing that was fascinating to

comprehend is the fact that the pole shift may be caused more by climate change and not completely tied to the Earth’s magnetic field.  This was new information to most of us.

Tarot did give a warning about the weakening of the magnetic field and electronics.  We should be careful not to completely become dependent on an Internet-based way of life.  Important data like health and financial records should be stored on paper as well as online.  People would be wise to have some cash stashed in a safe emergency spot so that life could go on if there was an outage.  Tarot did not, however, visualize a complete collapse of our Internet infrastructure or other computer networks.  Other cards pulled in synchronicity were joyous.  We pulled the 3 of Cups.  We should enjoy life. We also pulled the Strength card.  We all could see the Strength card with two different meanings.  First, we are a strong species.  We have survived many disasters. But the reading wasn’t complete reassuring.   Ivy Lieberman read humanity that clings together, helps each other and stays calm will survive.   

WalksWithSpirit added “Will we destroy ourselves to go back to the back to the simple days, or have a real wake up?  We could also predict that we need to remember the strength of the Earth and the systems that sustain it – including those under the crust of the planet.  We need to be ready to help each other when disaster strikes.  The final card pulled in Synchronicity was the Moon.  The moon affects the tides; it may affect the magma at the center of the earth.  The Moon also talks about turning to gut instincts. We need to trust the animals around us to help predict disasters. They can feel what is about to happen.  Birds leave, cats hide, and dogs become listless.  We can learn; we just need to ask the earth spirit to help us.  Jean Maurie pulled the same Angel card twice that gave us this advice:  4 Raphael - seek out other possibilities, look for the magic in life.

On the second week of the show involving Earth changes, we looked at two other topics that were making news.  First, the earth was hit by a “rogue” planet which fractured off the moon.  Second, it was reported that there was a huge ocean in the Earth’s mantle.  No, it’s not liquid – it’s locked away in a mineral called ringwoodite (Discovery Science News).  When we first began discussing this on Facebook some people wondered if this somehow figured into the “hollow earth” theory that many of had heard discussions about or even read books on the topic.

The Reading Room included:  Jean Maurie Puhlman, Ivy Lieberman, Anita Perez, Joanne Mathew, Camille Kea, WalkWithSpirit (Readings by Cary) and ReeNee Cummins.

Of course, when one thinks of the Earth being approached by another planet, the works of Zecharia Sitchin come to mind.  He interpreted Sumerian and Akkadian clay tablets and introduced the idea that there had been a 12th planet in the solar system.  Many of Sitchin’s believes feel that the 12th planet had a large, elliptical orbit and drifts by Earth after incredible periods of time.  ReeNee talked to many people who claimed that the 12th planet was going to drift into the Earth in 2012, causing the predicted catastrophe (that never happened).  The cards did not give an affirmative on the 12th planet being the cause of the moon.  Both the Hubble and Kepler Space Telescopes have traced “rogue planets’ wandering throughout space.  So it is highly possible that another planet collided with the Earth; hence the cards agreed with scientific fact. 

The Reading Room and Tarot was much more interested in the huge oceans of water trapped within the Earth’s mantle.  We started with discussion of the hollow earth theory.  Both the Reading Room and Tarot dismissed the concept in its most fundamental understanding.  However, both the readers and the cards were open to the idea of endless caves that were located within the mantle of the planet.  Anita Perez stated “I think there are large caverns inside. I sense that they're there- but hollow?  I don't think that's exactly right.” Ivy Lieberman added “water, caverns, and elements we have not seen as yet,” which was general consensus.  Ivy added an interesting read “mother earth beginning to reveal secrets she was cautious to reveal before.  Can we understand?”

“Can we understand” was the real question of the day on U-Predict.  The cards indicated that this vast amount of water figured into a system of self-cleaning for the planet.  In fact, the cards talked about the bio-systems were self-regulating unless mankind did something to disrupt them.  We again this week had the King of Cups in synchronicity, and the Queen of Cups had high synchronicity this week as well.  The idea of nurturing was carried over.  Again the Reading Room interpreted that we were being told that we are nurtured by the planet, but not protected by forces that are set in motion to bring things into equilibrium.  The Queen of Swords was pulled in synchronicity.  So the introduces the warrior queen doing what she needs to do to protect her realm.  The 10 of Swords was also carried into this show in synchronicity.  It is an unpleasant reminder unless we decide to work with the bio-systems we can be swept into extinction. 

Of the Major Arcana cards, ALL WERE REPEATED IN SYNCHRONICITY FROM THE PREVIOUS SHOW.  Tarot last week took over the show with a strong message about the importance of working with the Earth and not exploiting it. This message continued this week.  We got the High Priestess; again stating that things would happen that we would not understand.  We have to have faith in the wisdom of the Earth and the Universe when such things happen.  We also got the Lovers again; we talked about making choices that are good for the here and now and not thinking about long term consequences.  We also got Strength; reminding us we are a resilient species.  However, we have to remember that the planet itself exhibits tremendous power; power that we must learn to revere. 

The only other card that was in Synchronicity that was new was the 4 of Pentacles.  We were surprised at its appearance.  It is the card that says that money or material wealth may save the situation.  The Reading Room interpreted that again someone may step up with financial or material resources thinking the can fix any damage done.  The Tarot dismisses that idea, as did the reading room.

The Angel cards that Jean Maurie pulled were amazing.  We got:  Page of Gabriel - energetic, brave, and optimistic. You are ready for any challenge and Queen of Ariel - nurture yourself and those you love.  The ability to make anything more beautiful.  Practical and wise advice.  But most amazing of all was: 9 of Gabriel - environment activism.  Be prepared for any possibility

Did Tarot and the Angels give us good advice?   U-Predict…

Blogger’s Note:  We haven’t read on Bigfoot because most of the readers who participate are believers.  I was concerned that the strong belief in a topic may influence the results.  However, this reading came from two new, different angles in the hunt for the elusive creature – first, researchers have noted that many of the pictures taken by witnesses are blurry.  This could add a level of paranormal to the sightings that no one had anticipated.  Many times paranormal investigators are plagued by blurry photos when the equipment they used to create the photo was carefully checked out and set up before the photo session began.  The other new angle – equally intriguing - was that UFO activity either preceded the sighting or followed it.  Some witnesses even claimed to have seen the beasts swept up by the UFO!  Now, were these two angles actually new information, or are they being introduced to keep the public’s interest up in an old topic.  We asked Tarot.

Readers for this session included:  Mary Nale, TarotDactyl (Mary Brown), Jean Maurie Puhlman, Ivy Lieberman, Camille Kea, and ReeNee Cummins.

There was one strong message from Tarot – leave Bigfoot alone.  Tarot was very dubious about humanity’s interest in the creature.  The cards described the creatures as loving to their own kind; living happily in tribes far away from mankind (synchronicities from the 3 of Cups and 10 of Cups, both cards of joyous, carefree living).   TarotDactyl drew an animal oracle card and got “power, loyalty, leadership, family,” which was confirmation of how we saw the tribes.  We drew the King and Queen of Hearts in synchronicity as well as the King and Queen of Wands in the same synchronicity.  This again speaks of a loving family environment; however we would see it as primitive (King and Queen of Wands are very pragmatic, solid foundation – but back to basics). 

The Major Arcana we pulled carried on the same theme.  We got Strength, indicating that the Sasquatch has a strong desire to survive.  We got Death, which matches with the cards/interpretations we got about their numbers dwindling.  We got the Hanged-Man.  There are two meanings here; in fact this card is a bridge between our past action and a new future.  First, we are pushing the Bigfoot back further into the wilderness as we develop more and more land.  Second, the Hanged Man talks about seeing things in a new way.  We also got the Judgment card in synchronicity.  This is a wake up moment.  We can gather information about sightings.  We can track were these sightings are.  But we don’t need to form “hunting parties” to go out and track them down.  One of the hottest discussions in the Bigfoot investigation community is “should we just shoot one, and end the question once and for all?”  The next question will be is one enough?  Or even worse, how much for a Bigfoot carcass that can be stuffed and sold?

Jean Maurie did angel card work for this reading.  We were told we needed to make choices of the heart.  The King of Gabriel, told us to “keep your eyes on the big picture.”  The King of Michael told us “that wisdom and objectivity are important now”!

So the Tarot indicated that they are a real, sentient being that shares the planet with us.  There was nothing pointing to the paranormal about the photos, just people being extremely excited or scared when taking the photos.  The UFO connection leads the Reading Room to conclude that their abduction experience is the same as ours.  In, fact, aliens may be trying to figure out what the link between the two species is.

So, the Tarot was specific about us leaving Bigfoot alone.  Do you agree?   U-Predict…

After our first show on Tesla, I produced a blog about what Tarot had disclosed. 

http://upredict.blogspot.com/2014/06/u-predict-tarot-radio-experience-lost.html

There is archaeology, and then there is rogue archaeology.  Neither match the romantic idea of Dr. Indiana Jones – archaeology is slow and laborious.  Currently, the most published and televised data supports the ideas that have been around from the last century; the Egyptians were obsessed by the afterlife.  They preserved the bodies of the royalty.  They built massive pyramid-shaped tombs for these royals.  It’s in elementary text books – It was there in the 60’s when I was in elementary school, and it hasn’t changed.

Then there is rogue archaeology.  These are the “crazy like a fox” archaeologists who notice things like “gee they never found a body in the crypts in the pyramids”; and “it would have taken the Egyptians over 2000 years to build the pyramids – not the 20 as recorded in the text books.  Names like Graham Hancock and Carmen Boulter, PhD lead the field.  Regular science is outraged by their theories, and the support they are gathering.  So against this background U-Predict asking an interesting question “Did the ancient Egyptians have electricity?”  Psychics that participated in the Reading Room included:  IvyLieberman, Latifah Abdul'laah (Underland Tarot Musings), Jean Maurie Puhlman, Anita Perez, Elizabeth Dennan, Becky Graywolf (WindLady) ReeNee Cummins, and Dax Carlisle.

The first question was “Did the Egyptians build the pyramids?”  Most of the Reading Room felt that the pyramids were much older – that they were inherited or claimed by the civilization that we think of as the Egyptians. 

The second question was “Does archaeology give us a correct picture about the use of the pyramids?”  The readers indicated that science wanted to keep the whole thing tidy, and to continue down the same line of research, while ignoring things they couldn’t explain.  We had our first Project TAROT moment with The World card; one being upright, the other reversed.  This was Major Arcana proof of what we had been talking about.  One World showed us that we had a complete theory of the civilization; the other showed that there was a whole theory and research yet to be pursued.

The Reading Room turned its attention to the work of Nikola Tesla.  Because Tesla theorized other ways of generating/distributing electricity, many of the rogue archaeologists look to these theories to expand the possibilities that the Egyptian civilization was much more advanced than defined.  The Project TAROT moment came with the Tower card.  There was amusement, as Tesla’s theories utilized towers to distribute electricity.  However, a deeper meaning of the Tower card is a person who truly shakes things up.  Tesla’s theories definitely did that – and now they are being revisited to see if they are more efficient in energy transmission/distribution. 

The next two questions flowed together:  “Were the conditions right to generate electricity with the pyramids 10 – 15,000 years ago?” and “Were electric power tools used to cut monuments in Egypt?”  The Reading Room identified that there was a power source, but that it would not be understood by our level of science.  This would explain why few archaeologists would recognize the technology.  The Reading Room identified that the lasers were used to cut/shape the stones.  Jean Maurie identified the laser tools, and Dax immediately got confirmation with a yes/no spread (5 cards to the yes).  This is one area that the rogue archaeologists focus on – the fact that the stone work from ancient Egypt is so fine and accurate.

At this point Anita Perez called in and talked about some past life work she had done with a group of people.  She had talked about being in a chamber and using the resonance of the chamber and a crystal to amplify energy.  She said that the group of people weren’t sure that they had the proper technique.  ReeNee told the listeners that chambers exactly like those Anita described that had been discovered by Dr. Carmen Boulter.  These chambers had used resonance.  However their actual purpose remains a mystery.

The final two questions:  “Will hard evidence ever arise about advanced ancient civilizations?” and “Does science understand that it is hurting its authenticity with its current theories?”  are best answered by the Project TAROT moment cards for the entire show:  Five of Cups, The World, The Hierophant, and The Lovers.  The Five of Cups is about disappointment.  The rogue archaeologists are disappointed that their ideas are ignored.  Mainstream archaeology faces the disappointment of disappearing funding for expeditions, no support from Middle-Eastern governments to do research, and the destruction of potential sites by desert nomads.  Overall disappointment from a collective consciousness standpoint is that we want to know.  People are interested and are getting more interested in the unexplained artifacts in the world. 

This now refers to The World card.  How would our world change if we had knowledge that there had been an advanced civilization all over the planet that was somehow destroyed?  Would this become a focus of the current civilization – finding out what happened?  Or would most people want not to be bothered with ancient problems or disasters.  The Hierophant represents traditional science.  Science is already dealing with the rejection of evolution by fundamentalist religions; what would be the result if long established facts were overturned in another discipline?

The final card is The Lovers.  This card may appear surprising, but in actuality it makes a lot of sense.  There is a lot of romance about archaeology and ancient cultures.  There also is a lot of romance about a lost civilization and what we could learn from such a discovery.  The Lovers is also a card of choice – which is our true love?  Do we want the next generation of scientists to stick to tradition or are we willing to have them dig deeper and perhaps overturn long cherished beliefs?   U-Predict…

This was a very interesting show.  The number of synchronicities was small – but they told the crux of the situation with Tesla.  We began with the premise that Nikola Tesla chose to live in hotel rooms.  That there were more than a dozen boxes of Tesla’s belongings left behind at hotels like the Waldorf Astoria, the Governor Clinton Hotel and the St. Regis that were sold to pay off Tesla’s outstanding bills. Most of these boxes and the secrets they contained have never been found. What major discoveries were lost in these papers?  Tarot answered with the concept that the man was ahead of his time, someone who wanted to make life fair for everyone; a mystic who had feet planted another dimension – and he wanted to share this other dimension with the public.  This assured that Tesla was seen as “unusual” if not down-right weird.  Because of these things, he was taken advantage of and misunderstood by most people.

The Reading Room for this show included:  Anita Perez, Jean Maurie Puhlman, Camille Kea, and ReeNee Cummins.  We welcomed SeerJane as a new reader for this show. 

When Tarot was asked to explain Tesla, we were told that his whole purpose was to close the gap between the haves and the havenots.  He felt that energy was the cause of the great divide.  His purpose was to come up with ways to make energy cheaply or free for every person on earth.  Because he was so concerned about making life as fair and good as he could, he really didn’t care personally if people stole his ideas or lied about his purpose.  He worked with the identified geniuses of his time.  However, both Edison and Westinghouse stole his ideas.   

He became involved in mysticism, visiting several Indian gurus when they came to the New York area.  Anita Perez mentioned that Krishnamurti was popular at the time.  Tesla became fascinated with ancient Buddhist and Hindu text from India.  In these texts he found the Sanskrit metaphysical terms for the different kinds of energy and forces in the Universe.  It opened up his understanding of energy of all kinds.  However, he saw no difference between the electrical experiments that he was describing to investors and his metaphysical investigations.  Many investors saw him as a lunatic for these discussions.  It is one of the ways he got the name “mad scientist” as well as lost many, many investors.

We asked about his involvement with the US government and deadly weapons.  The Tarot told us that Tesla understood the power of the energy he experimented with and did not want people killed by his discoveries.  He actually sent copies of some of his experiments to several governments around the world so that no one would have the only weapon built from his designs.  We asked if the US Government had designed the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) based on Tesla’s work.  The cards were adamant that Tesla had not intended any of his work to be used for any kind of weapon or have any military purpose.  The Tarot indicated that some of his concepts may have been conscripted by the military; Tesla himself had not intended this to be the case.

The Reading Room thought it would be wonderful to channel Tesla.  Jean Maurie found some examples of people claiming channeled contact:

I’ve lost count of the people I’ve met who claim they lived in a haunted house.  At a major aerospace plant in California, I dealt with a haunted building (employee hung himself at the end of the Apollo program). The Queen Mary in California and Ashley's restaurant, both on the national register of haunted places, are two of my favorite places.   But our pop-culture fascination with ghosts started with a pair of plumbers.  Most people laughed at the idea that Roto-Router guys could find ghosts.  I didn’t.  I’m a contractor’s kid. I know how old buildings can trick you - creaky woodwork, bad plumbing, and all sorts of things that could fool an occupant.  In fact, I thought it was pretty cool that these guys were willing to go up against public scrutiny.  I don’t know why it took us two years to decide to ask about ghosts and hauntings on U-Predict, but the results are interesting, with a lot of wisdom.

The Reading Room for this show included:  Anita Perez, Jean Maurie Puhlman, TarotDactyl (Mary Brown), Camille Kea, Ivy Lieberman, and ReeNee Cummins.

We started with the basics.  Yes, ghosts are the electromagnetic signature of a deceased person.  However, Tarot was quick to tell us that there was a strong emotional component to a ghost.  In fact, as the reading unfolded, it became obvious that it is the emotional component that is the most important part of a “haunting.”    First, we had an abundance of Knights (Cups, Wands, and Pentacles).  Knights are an adolescent energy.  It is a sign of broad energy swings – usually on verge of being out-of-control.  We also drew the King of Swords -the warrior.  This synchronicity is interesting because of the number of hauntings that involve soldiers.  We also had the Ace of Swords and the Ace of Cups - both cards focused on big ideas and big emotion.   So there was the description of a classic haunting – a person who had been through a traumatic emotion experience or feels they have something to communicate.

The reading room discussed intelligent hauntings (where an entity interacts with the living), and residual hauntings (where something is imprinted on space/time but is replayed over and over).  We brought up the idea of a person being haunted; someone being bothered by a ghost even if they move several times.  The cards were quick to bring a warning.  A person must know how to protect themselves psychically before they become involved in any way with ghosts or ghost hunting.  We pulled the Empress several times when we were talking about this question.  This a card of love and protection; the definitive answer came when TarotDactyl announced that in the Ghosts & Spirits Tarot deck she was using, the Empress was the "Guardian Spirit." It was discussed that the ghost could be discouraged to stop the haunting, but that the person being haunted would have to have a great deal of emotional strength and courage to stop the event.  In fact that was another point the card made, the more people emotionally interact with an entity (especially with the jolt of energy released with fear) the stronger the entity can become.  The cards also stressed this when we asked if going on a ghost tour was completely harmless.  Again, the cards were quick to make sure you are dealing with professionals and then make sure that you are grounded and shielded before going on the tour.

The Reading Room also talked about the idea of “hauntings” being caused by many types of spiritual beings.  We talked about the fact that there was the elemental kingdom full of entities who liked to play tricks on mortals.  We talked about the idea of poltergeists, and that people may have psychokinetic abilities that are triggered by strong emotions, while they have no idea that they are the cause of the activity. 

We asked about “sending entities to the light.”  Is it permanent?   Is it necessary? The answer we got from the cards is that reality is more porous than most people realize.  We got the 6 of and 9 of Wands in synchronicity.  The six speaks to the societal aspect that ghosts are drawn to the living.  The 9 speaks about treating these souls fairly.  Some ghosts may know something is very wrong, but don’t know they are dead.  These souls are very happy to cross the veil, and will not return.  Jean Maurie pulled an Angel Tarot card on this topic and got the 5 of Gabriel “you needn’t go through your current challenges alone. Help is nearby! Negative thoughts create self-fulfilling prophesies."   Ivy Lieberman got “there will be a moment of thought then you will be directed to the proper place to go.  Perhaps hastened along.”   Others, however, are well aware of their situation; they are either drawn back because of the emotion or a few just seem to enjoy hanging (or messing) with the living.  The Tarot also talked about ghosts being drawn to the living who may have an addiction.  The emotion in participating in the addiction is the attraction.   The point the Tarot is trying to make is that you have to look at how your behavior is attracting the entity.  Ghost hunters should treat the entities with respect; no need to bait to get a response.  If a ghost chooses not to move on, the living need to decide how they are going to exist with the entity (if they can).

There were 3 Major Arcana cards in synchronicity - The Fool, The Empress, and The Lovers.  In a previous paragraph, we talked about The Empress as being protective beings as a part of shielding before engaging with entities.  The Fool speaks to the forgiving nature of the Universe.  Tarot said that some spirits had problems moving on because they felt unworthy to have an afterlife.  As society reports more on experiences with the afterlife, and the interest in Near Death Experiences grows, hopefully people will realize that they can move toward the light no matter how traumatic their lives have been.  With the Lovers, both archetypes apply.  There is the archetype of romantic love (again, the idea of strong emotion) and well as making the choice to go to the light. 

By far the most moving part of the show was when Camille Kea talked about seeing her grandmother’s spirit leaving her body when she died.  The Reading Room agreed that it was a profound experience.  The experiences of the Reading Room always add astonishing personal experiences to the topics we discuss.

So does this answer questions about ghosts?  U-Predict…
