Dear fellow traveller on Spaceship Earth,
Right now, World History is being written. And we are all participating in the writing of it. Some more actively, others not so actively, but we are all living it one way or another.
As I explain in some detail in my book PARADIGM PULSE – SENSING THE SURGE OF CHANGE, we are now reaching a decisive stage in the shift from one cosmic paradigm to another, which is causing profound changes in everything, changes few of us could even have imagined. The metamorphosis we have already been living in technical terms over the last couple of centuries, is now also transmuting how we see and understand the world and ourselves. In addition it will further transform our technical, spiritual, intellectual and spiritual power to create our own lives and thereby co-create the world around us.
Never before in the known history of Humanity has anything remotely similar occurred.
Thanks to my astrological insights I can see the final outcome with some clarity, but it´s far less easy to predict the timing and how to get there. Depending on our level of awareness, and on how we act, the process can be very long and very costly in terms of human lives and suffering. But it can also be short and effective, if tumultuous. Somewhat like the fall of the Soviet Empire.
The madness of meddling with nuclear energy and weapons has already seriously compromised the environment and all life on Earth. Its effects, most recently from the multiple meltdowns at Fukushima in Japan, will basically last forever on a human timescale and cause massive genetic damage, infertility and cancers. Can that be justified with short term monetary profits for a few people?
The insanity beyond comprehension of those who rule the world today seems to have no limits. The irreversable damage already done to Humanity and our biosphere would only be a light prelude, if the Israeli and US governments decide to start a nuclear war with Iran. Incomprehensibly, they seem perfectly ready to do so, in such case committing the most heinous crime ever against Humanity, against all life on the planet and by elementary logic even directly against God.
How can anyone vote for such people? The short answer is that the vast majority of people are misinformed, unaware and brainwashed by media and authorities.
Besides, as most of us have found out, democracy is a deceptive illusion to keep the people calm and without influence. Real democracy does not exist anywhere, and least of all in the US.
There is no way we can achieve any real change by just voting for a new round of the usual suspects. As those who voted for Obama should have realized by now.
The entire system has to be transformed from the bottom up. The fundamental value system of our society must be transmuted.
The core problem is that our entire society is founded on the principle of materialism, and that everything is measured in material possessions and power over material things and other people. Or in money, which is the same thing.
And who controls the money? – The answer is not obvious, because large corporations do earn and control large sums of money, and governments also control large amounts of money. And so do those who control the illegal drug trade, who are often intimately affiliated with governments. But the real power over money, and therefore over both politics and economics, rests discreetly with the international banking system, that has succeeded in avoiding much scrutiny until the recent financial crises.
Now, the really surprising thing to most people is that banks, and not only central banks, have usurped the right to issue new money out of thin air. Central banks can just print new money and hand it out as loans to other banks, to governments, or to corporations or individuals. Any chartered bank can issue loans over the computer system, without actually printing any new paper money or minting new coins. As the wellknown trend forecaster Gerald Celente quipped, that is “money not worth the paper it´s not printed on.”
Another thing that has come to public knowledge just recently, thanks to Internet, is that the Federal Reserve in New York, the Central Bank of the US, is a privately owned bank, that lends money to the US government and charges interest on it, interest that the government pays off with tax money. The Federal Reserve was given these privileges in 1913 through a clever coup in Congress by the financiers at the time, without anyone really realizing what was happening.
The Federal Reserve, as well as the Bank of England, are controlled by the mostly Jewish owners of a dozen or so private banks, and these people are the ones who hold the real power in the world, mostly via the US federal government and military. The US president and congress are all indirectly controlled by these “banksters”, as they are now called by many critics of the system. The Rockefeller family in the US, and the Rothschild family in Europe, are the best known of these, but they are not the only ones.
The money system worked reasonably well, as long as those in charge of it did not issue more money than corresponded to the productivity or growth of the economy in terms of produced and sold products and services. As a means to guarantee that the monetary volume did not expand unduly, most Central Banks were required to store gold corresponding to the banknotes in circulation. So gold was considered the real money, and banknotes were just tokens of ownership of gold, and could be exchanged for gold at any time.
As long as these rules were adhered to, there was no inflation, and people knew that their savings would buy as much after 10 or 20 years. And they could count on a dependable interest on their bank deposits.
Obviously this kind of thought and practise did not take into account the technical and social development, that has occurred in the last sixty or seventy years, but the principle was sound and could have continued to work in a world without wars. Wars have always been the big disruptors of the economy, because they require enormous improductive spending not related to the production of real values.
The principle of a controlled money supply backed by gold had been interrupted many times by wars, but it changed definitely in 1971, as the Vietnam war essentially ruined the US financially and Nixon abandoned the gold standard. The Federal Reserve then began to issue money that was not backed by gold. From that moment the US dollar became a “fiat” currency, meaning it was backed only by faith in the system. It had no intrinsic value other than the promise of the US Federal Reserve that it was worth the amount printed on it. Due to the war inflation of the 1970s, the US had to raise the interest rates on its government bonds. At one point it touched 20% to compensate for the inflation.
As we know, the value of the dollar has dropped since then, even though it has held up better than many minor currrencies.
Then came Reagan and Milton Friedman, professor at the Chicago School of Economics, who introduced the so called neoliberal doctrine of de-regulation. Until then, banks, credit unions, insurance companies and other players on the financial arena had been confined to their specific type of business and strictly regulated by legislation and government agencies in order to protect the public. But now most restrictions were thrown overboard and all these businesses got free hands to enter new fields, combine different kinds of banking with insurance, mortgages and other investments in real estate. This lead to a free for all orgie in swindle and fraud, thinly camouflaged as new and creative investment instruments.
The worst part of this deregulation was the introduction of what has been aptly called “The Global Casino”, consisting of all kinds of creative speculative instruments, among them so called derivatives, with no real value except their perceived value for winning bets on certain outcomes. However, a bet is an agreement that has to be honored and was often backed up by client deposits and other real credits. So when the ever crazier bets turned in huge losses, many banks went bankrupt.
The present global crisis has many layers, but it has essentially two main causes:
The first one is spending far more than earned, running up large debts. This was true of individuals in many countries, especially the US, where house purchases with easy and cheap mortgages were practically shoved down peoples throats, and credit card loans were also encouraged to the tune of tens of thousands of dollars pr person.
But it was not just people who spent more than they earned. It became a way of life of governments. And then of banks, engaging in reckless speculation on the Global Casino, like there was no tomorrow.
Now, one of the most sinister facets of this is the intimate links of the economy, of Wall Street, of the international banking community, and of many governments, especially that of the US, to the armament industry and also to the illegal drug trade. Though the armament industry is technically legal, it is massively detrimental and demoralizing for the entire structure of society .
As long as selling arms is one of the most lucrative businesses of all, powerful forces are working to make sure there are as many wars and as much fear as possible, and growing.
The second cause of the present global crisis is the vast amounts of money spent on unproductive and destructive pursuits. The classic war syndrome that interrupts the economy. The military does not produce anything that anyone else can use. Weapons, military aircraft, war ships, tanks, bombs, ammunition etc. cannot be eaten or used in any other way for people. The enormous amounts of resources that are wasted on the military, could – and should – have been used for constructive purposes. They can be used to feed the starving, to better educate the masses, to raise the standard of living for all the poor in the world, but through fair investments that create jobs, not through charity. Last but not least these resources could be used to maintain infrastructure and develop clean and free energy for everybody with technologies that have existed for decades and in some cases for a century, but have been blocked and sabotaged by the oil monopoly in close paid collusion with the governments.
There are more reasons why the present financial system no longer works, but they are not as specific to the present crisis.
The only reason the USA has been able to maintain the value of its dollars as much as is the case, is that the US dollar has been accepted – under political and commercial pressure for sure – as the global reserve currency in which most international transactions, and notabley oil and armaments, have to be paid. This privilege, which has been very profitable for the US, is now being questioned on the ground of its national debt of many trillions of dollars.
With such an incomprehensibly large war debt, the country is on the brink of bankruptcy and default. Yet Obama continues to spend billions on new wars and armaments, and on the post-9/11 dictatorial control of every activity of US citizens through expanded resources and mandates of the Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the intrusive search practises of the Transport Security Agency (TSA), no longer only in airports but wherever people assemble or travel.
So what is the conclusion of all this?
My personal conclusion is that, with few exceptions, the rulers of our world, whether elected or not, have dropped their masks and revealed their lack of ethics, human solidarity, competence, intelligence and common sense. They have also exposed their ruthless selfishness and greed, their lack of the most elementary sense of responsibility, and of basic altruism. Thanks to the transparency principle of the incoming Aquarian Paradigm, all this is now being revealed.
What does it mean?
It means that a mighty showdown is brewing between on the one hand the still ruling old-paradigm forces, who are pushing hard for a global military dictatorship already far more advanced than most people understand, and on the other hand the emerging consciousness of the Aquarian Paradigm which stands for true local democracy, peace and cooperation, equality and freedom, innovation and equitably shared resources.
It means that we urgently need to transmute the entire system and embrace Aquarian values and principles, if we want to survive and thrive.
It means that we must abandon our old materialistic value system and stop measuring everything in money and material possessions. Instead, we should measure values in happiness, feelings of satisfaction and belonging, positive relationships, improved quality of life (not material standard), creativity and real contributions to society as a Whole.
And if we don´t do something drastic together VERY SOON to stop our leaders in their tracks, we may perish in a nuclear war before we know it, or become empoverished slaves to the bankster elite, who is running the show regardless of whom we vote for in our phony elections.
