I’ve been a fan of the television show DALLAS since the beginning. I was only nine or ten years old when I began watching the show, and in my house, Dallas ranked up there with college and pro football.
A livestock dealer, my dad wasn’t one for television so to find a show he actually liked was rare. Looking back, I wonder if the whole family didn’t start following Dallas simply because our dad actually took the time to watch something other than sports.
Needless to say, the recent season premiere of Dallas on TNT was exciting. The phones started buzzing with text messages loaded down with predictions. With the number of phone calls back and forth, it felt like it was college game day and the season opener for the Dallas Cowboys rather than the premiere of the family’s favorite television show. To add to the excitement, my brother and I had recently visited Southfork Ranch.
A few months ago, thanks to some unavoidable business travel, several of my family members ended up traveling back and forth to the Dallas area. I live in East Tennessee so needless to say, the unexpected trips weren’t exactly welcomed. We love Texas and throughout our lives, we've spent a great deal of time in the great state of Texas. Still, the timing was bad, particularly since last-minute travel occurred during my daughter’s senior year.
Since we were in Texas on business and often flying in and out of Dallas at the last minute, we were exhausted most of the time. Typically, by the end of the week, we were walking zombies by the time we headed back to the airport. We really didn’t have time to play around, much less head out to Southfork and spend the day sightseeing.
On one particular midweek afternoon, we drove from North Texas to Dallas, and realized about halfway to the airport, we probably wouldn’t make our flights. After rescheduling our departures, my brother asked what I wanted to do. “Well, I’ve always wanted to see Southfork, but if we go we may miss our next flight,” I said, thinking he wouldn’t bother sightseeing because we’d already missed one flight. If we drove out to Parker and spent a few hours touring, we would most likely miss another flight which could keep us in Dallas overnight, something neither one of us wanted since we’d already been in Texas longer than we’d first intended.
Surprisingly, my brother wanted to visit the Texas ranch as much as I did. Remember, our entire family once thought Dallas was the ONLY television show worth watching.
After we determined that we’d missed enough flights in our lives not to worry about another one, we headed to Parker, Texas. Once we arrived there, I was taken aback. While I’ve seen prettier ranches in various areas of the country, there’s something about Southfork that I can’t explain.
Pictures paint thousands of words so I’d like to share some of mine with you. In addition to the ranch photos, I’m sharing one I made of myself with JR Ewing’s portrait, but please remember we were running on less than two hours of sleep. I’m definitely not posing here for Covergirl. ;)Still, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to share these pictures with you.
The tour guide at Southfork was very energetic and informative. She obviously had a true love for the hit television show. She didn’t exaggerate when she said the new season was a fine tribute to the old Dallas.
After following the new Dallas season, I couldn’t agree more. Larry Hagman is still on his game. Linda Gray and Patrick Duffy took their respective roles by the horns, too, playing their parts without any detected difficulty.
Dallas also has a new generation of Ewings but I won’t give spoilers here. TNT and entertainment websites provide more information about the show. The younger Ewings are destined to make their mark in television history with their contributions to the Dallas show.
If you live in the Parker, Texas area or if you’re traveling through Dallas, Texas, take the time and drive out to Southfork. Like I stated earlier, I’ve visited prettier ranches. I’ve seen a lot of them in my day. Still, there’s just something spectacular about Southfork.
Whether you’re a new or old Dallas show fan, you need to visit Southfork Ranch. It’s a trip you’ll never forget.
I hope you enjoyed my pictures from Parker, Texas and the Southfork Ranch!
Until next time,
Destiny

The most amazing thing is, if I was still waiting for a publisher to say “yes”, I would still be writing, although probably not with as much confidence.
I guess I had to have a heart attack and then open heart surgery to get to the place where I was able to do what I love most in all of the world to do.
Before my medical problems—at age 48—I worked for nearly 30 years in the field of accounting. I did accounts payable, accounts receivable, balance sheets, and payroll and benefits. I knew beyond a doubt that a credit was a debit and a debit was a credit, and just because it balanced didn’t mean it was right. I was pretty good at what I did, and I had been told by more than one boss that they’d never seen anyone work so quickly, or with so few mistakes.
A co-worker once accused me of treating my “job” like a career, a comment she thought was an insult, but which I took as a compliment.
I have always believed that if you’re going to do something, you should do the best damn job at it that you can—especially if you’re being paid for it.
I carried that attitude over to my writing, of course. My beloved will tell you he shakes his head in amazement at how much time I spend looking things up, contacting experts, checking my facts...doing research to try and ensure that I get things right.
My sister-in-law once told me—and yes, I am still speaking to her—that since I was only writing porn and not The Great Canadian Novel, she didn’t see why I had to be such a perfectionist about it.
Well, aside from the fact that I don’t write porn, thank you very much, I am writing the great Canadian novel. To me, that’s what every one of my books truly is. Yes, they have graphic love scenes. But they also have compelling characters, and good plots. They often address real challenges that women, and men, face in life.
Each of my stories has more than one level to it. And even if they didn’t, there is value in simply giving your reader a few hours away from the challenges and stresses in their own lives. If that was all that my books were about, I would still strive to write the best book I could.
The thing is, I love what I do, and I’m proud of what I do. If I wasn’t getting published, I would still be doing it. I guess that’s the definition of happiness...and passion, too.
I know how lucky I am that I can devote my days to doing what I love.
I know what it’s like to go to work each day, and sometimes wonder if you’ll get through the eight or ten or twelve hours. Folks who do that, who go to work day in and day out, even though they don’t like what they’re doing are, in my opinion, the real heroes in life.
I can’t say that I had a passion for accounting the way I have a passion for writing. It was boring work at times, but I found a way to make it interesting. I don’t put up with boring. I never have. If something needs to be done and it’s dull and dry, I find a way to make it palatable, and I work as quickly as I can to be done with it.
I may never be famous, or monetarily wealthy. Those things don’t really matter to me. I’ve always said that as long as I have the makings for a good cup of coffee, and plenty of toilet paper, I can get by.
But I am enormously rich in the work that I do, and the friends I have made, and the readers who read my books and then write to me to tell me that they love them.
I am blessed, and highly favored.
Love,
Morgan

Dhuroth meets my gaze, amusement glittering his eyes. "Yes, we did. What do you say we visit the Star Pyramid, one chamber that is, before the time we lived in Egypt."
I'm delightfully lost in his eyes. "One chamber?"
"There is a chamber that holds time. It is a frequency lens. From there it is possible to see into each room."
Before I know it, Dhuroth is leading me toward two crystalline pillars that stand side-by-side. The slim pillars appear to be about my lion man's height, and are about six feet apart.
We pause before the two rainbow-gleaming, six-sided pillars and I assume it is the gateway to the pyramid. Dhuroth holds up his palm, and I witness a tiny beam of light shoot out.
"Palm reading," he states, his tone tongue in cheek.
After another moment, Dhuroth leads me through. Instantly a vista appears before me. So alien is the landscape, I start and take a step back.
"Do not be afraid, my beloved. This is simply how Mother Earth appeared in this time period."
My lion man's confidence, and his slight tug on my hand, eases me. I sweep my gaze over the foliage-dense landscape.
There are smallish palm trees with fronds that nearly touch the ground. A carpet of clover with various-colored blooms stretches into the distance. Sparkling pools of water mirror the turquoise blue sky while water spills into them, gushing over natural formations of rock. At least, the rock looks natural.
"Where's the pyramid?" I ask.
"We are inside, my Sh’raka. However, we are seeing outside."

ANGELIC FORECAST ~
This week, the dragon of Good and the dragon of evil are locked in mortal combat. Watch for how this plays out on the world stage, and in your local community. As well, this will influence your personal life, especially in the area of finances.
AFTER THE BETRAYAL ~ Now the real info-revolution for freedom begins, and warriors from across the world rise up on the fiery strong wings of the phoenix.
Quote from a recent forecast: "On the really bad news front, with the ongoing breakdown of the economy, *betrayal* is the theme for this week, and for the rest of the year, 2012. This will be at every level in society, from your personal life to the highest echelons ruling Earth. Because of this, many will develop 'betrayal radar', an inner knowing of who can be trusted and who cannot -- also, they will know what situations can be trusted. "
On the economic front, likely the global economy will be front and center this week. A huge battle has developed between two factions of the bankster gangsters over how the worldwide Depression will be continued, and who will finally win the blood-stained, ill-gotten booty that is being repeatedly stolen from 'the people'.
Watch the banks for any sign of what is called a bank holiday. In today's terms this could be couched in a computer upgrade of financial transactions. In opposition to this global mafia, how to 'beat the system' will become the new currency for many of us.
On the truth front, from this point forward, the TRUTH about more high level 'betrayals' will come pouring out, often like volcanos blowing their tops.
On the war front, sadly, more horrific events will be artificially created by those working for the soulless ones, in order, to force 'the people' into accepting a world war. However, the good forces are still fighting them to a standstill. For the moment.
Behind the scenes, evil mercenary armies are ruthlessly taking over third world countries, and are preparing to do the same in nearly every nation of the world. As well, military drills will be used to acclimate local populations for an eventual takeover by the dark powers that be.
On the AWAKENING front, deep within All of us is a blueprint for navigating the upcoming times. This is vitally important because 'changes' are happening at superspeed, and will only accelerate day-by-day. By the end of year, the world will be far different than it is now.
This blueprint inside you is likely to be a major shift from how you've envisioned your life, and what your life path is currently. Simply keep a look out for those inner promptings and understandings. Honor yourself, and look beyond the status quo.
On the personal front, we are entering a new period for humanity , and it's time to make the most of these exquisite heart energies. Each of us will either rise toward compassion or sink to a baser nature. This will directly impact your personal life in ways you never thought possible. Prepare to relate to others in new and unexpected ways that will center around the heart.
This week is also about looking for missed opportunities. At times, opportunities we've missed come around a second time and third time. Or, we are finally ready to take advantage, and these opportunities appear like magic.
On the food front, there will be an increase in those who create loosely knit groups so they can barter for fresh good food. Also, a movement against the giant box stores is strengthening. As many discover RFID chips in containers and products can be tracked, and will be used by the so-called 'green police' to levy hefty fines, there will be a huge change in shopping habits.
On the land changes front, now is the time to gather together, to live close to or live with your loved ones. This could also mean living with those you consider to be your family, and/or within a like-minded community. This because as the year progresses, there 'could' be many areas where travel is limited, even severely restricted.
At this time, if you want to be with your family members -- if you want to be close to those you love, move to the same area now!
On the paranormal front, all hell is breaking loose. What has been hidden for centuries soars into the Light for all to witness. This is because, in part, the cosmic time has come for these 'truths' to emerge -- to become part of humanity's overall awareness. Do not shy away from these stunning truths, but use your spiritual side to reach an understanding. The angels will assist you. They will sing to your heart.
On the really bad news front, during the year many will be leaving the planet, and returning to their heavenly home. This will be due mostly to a series of sad events worldwide. Also, there will be many who are not be able to adapt to the hyper-speed changes facing us all. Your best strategy as always is to beware, prepare, and take care of yourself and others.
Trendwise, as celebrity news dies a slow death and yellow, sensational journalism becomes passe, what will arise can be described as the info-guns ablazing. A new breed of citizen journalist, renegades determined to discover and the report the truth, will charge forth in the spirit of Paul Revere.
As well, what has been thought of as leadership from the top down continues to topple. Everyone will become leaders in their own way, and within their chosen circle of like-minded people. This will be crucial.
This is the week to enjoy the light of sun during sunrise and sunset. Bask in the beauty. Color your soul with these resplendent rays.

Kandy Apple and Her Hellhounds ~ What happens when two of Hades’ most mission-accomplished Hellhounds find just the right witch for Halloween? ~ Ebook and In Print.
I remember how thrilled I was to find these in 1976. Our parents raised us to think of ourselves as British subjects, which in fact we were back then. I suppose you could have called my parents monarchists, and been quite accurate.
Sadly, when we suffered a house fire in 1985, all those lovely pieces of history went up in flames.
My beloved and I are very much fans of the Royal Family, and consider ourselves monarchists to this day. Queen Elizabeth II is in fact the “Queen of Canada”, and David and I consider her our Queen.
Each Christmas, the Queen gives a televised ‘message’ and that message has been a part of my Christmas tradition all of my life. Canada does have a Prime Minister, who is the head of government, but our head of state is the Queen, represented day-by-day in Canada by “vice-regent”, the Governor-General.
The two of us have been paying avid attention this last week especially, as the celebration of the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee has been taking place here, and in England. We have been very conscious of the fact that we are living through the making of history. There have only been two diamond Jubilees for the British Crown, and both have been achieved Queen Regents. The other one, of course, was attained by Queen Victoria.
The Jubilee is the celebration of the Queen’s 60 years of service. Notice I said service, and not reign. The word ‘reign’ brings to mind images of power, opulence, self-indulgence—words that simply don’t fit our Queen at all. She is the embodiment of the word ‘service’.
Her Majesty has been known in the past to walk through the Palace in the evenings, turning off lights that don’t need to be on. She has put off renovations to the various properties and has ordered a scaling back of expenses for state dinners and balls (a lot of which she finances herself) to reflect the times. She could afford to spare no expense, but is sensitive that her people are going through difficult economic hardship. Ever frugal, she has been even more so in the last several years.
During the Second World War she trained as an ambulance driver and mechanic. When she turned 21, the then Princess Elizabeth gave a radio-address in which she pledged to dedicate her “whole life, be it long or short” to the service of her country, and the Commonwealth.
Over the years when I would hear different news commentators wondering aloud if the Queen would “retire”, I would shake my head because of course, she will never retire. She will be Queen for the whole of her life, period.
These special celebrations this past weekend are celebrations that will likely never occur again. The two next in line for the Crown—Prince Charles and then Prince William—will probably not attain 60 years on the throne, because they will be so much older at the time of their coronations than Elizabeth was.
And who knows what the future holds for the institution itself? At the moment, the Queen enjoys an 80 per cent approval rating. Yet the concept of having a King or Queen does seem to some people to be archaic. Monarchies can be considered institutions of the past.
In a hundred years, they may not even exist.
Old fashioned monarchies might be, but I can tell you that I, for one, have greater faith in Queen Elizabeth to put first the interests and well being of her people, than I do in our Prime Minister—or any elected politician, for that matter. There is not a single occasion that I can recall, where she has done anything that could be considered even the slightest bit self-aggrandizing.
Politicians by their very nature have extremely healthy egos. They seek office, and who among them does so for purely altruistic reasons? I cannot name a one.
Our Queen has been on the job without a vacation from her duties for 60 years. She has been there, through good times and bad times, ever dutiful, unwavering, and solid. At 86 years of age, she continues to inspire me.
God Save the Queen!
Love,
Morgan

She wants to have his baby, and he just wants to have her.
Dhuroth reaches for my hand, enfolding it tenderly within his. "My beautiful woman, I will speak my earlier words to you. 'Your energy is of the Earth yet now your energies are beyond Earth.'"
My lion man draws me closer, and his gaze captures my soul. "You are the connection, my beloved. Your compassionate heart is the bridge of good that is required to create the stargate bridge."
I hear his words. A part of me knows it's the truth. Yet...
"Do you know," Dhuroth's voice is thoughtful, "I have a direct gateway to the Giza Pyramid. However, my one, not as the pyramid is during the Earth year, 2012."
"When? What time period?" I ask, my curiosity aroused. But my whole being is aroused for my lion man.
"The time when we lived in Egypt, and before when the Star Pyramid, as it was known, was newly constructed."
"Why Star Pyramid?"
"Because, even though it has several functions, the Star Pyramid was originally built to be a gateway to several star systems, and to power the dimensional ships. Later portals to other worlds were added for direct travel without need for a craft."
"Wow... that's overwhelming to think about." Dhuroth caresses my back, his thoughts far away. "Mind bending," I add, and shake my head to clear it.
In the next moment, I know. "We traveled through the portals, didn't we?"
Dhuroth meets my gaze, amusement glittering his eyes. "Yes, we did. What do you say we visit the Star Pyramid, one chamber that is, before the time we lived in Egypt."
I'm delightfully lost in his eyes. "One chamber?"
"There is a chamber that holds time. It is a frequency lens. From there it is possible to see into each room."

ANGELIC FORECAST ~
During the month of June, the dragon of good engages the dragon of evil in an epic battle. At this time, it will be wise to weigh your decisions carefully about 'who' and 'what' you support. For, every attempt will be made to lure you and your loved ones to the dark side. Just remember: all that glitters is not gold.
This week is all about the emotions of the human heart. It is about expanding our compassion for each other. Challenges will likely arise around relationships. As well, unexpected miracles will occur.
On the truth front, the explosive level of 'truths' being released during the year, 2012, is the ticket to freedom and a far better future for humankind.
On the economic front, sheer craziness will be the order of the day, and most of the month. The yo-yo economy continues with higher spikes and lower lows, at times. Likely there will also be mini bank runs across the world, and it will become more difficult to get any substantial sum of money out. As well, watch the disappearing pension funds. Note: if you have a pension DO NOT count on it.
As the Depression deepens, more states will be looking at the state bank of North Dakota as an example for the future. This, in opposition to the Federal Reserve system. Later in the month, what has been called the Icelander disease begins to spread. That is, more nations, and THE PEOPLE, will say NO to the bankster gangster takeover, and their one world bank.
On the personal front, money is front and center for many this week, and for the next two weeks. Likely, important decisions will need to be made about your finances. Because the best strategy may not be obvious, tune into your smarts and your intuition, and listen for the divine whispers.
This is also a week to pay attention to details on the homefront. It could be as simple as fixing or replacing what no longer works. Or, it could be a complete revamping of your home.
On the war front, the global elite faction who beats the drum for a world war are making their moves to bring about this massive horror. Endless lies to 'the people' are their primary strategy. However, there are other forces who have and are battling them to a stalemate. For the moment.
Watch for a major confrontation with Russia during this month, all while companies owned by the Chinese government are buying up movie theater chains, huge tracts of land in the united states, and other media interests. The fun times of big-time censorship are here but will be disguised for a while.
On the AWAKENING front, the planet, Venus, transits across the face of the Sun on June 5th. This is a landmark astronomical event, and won't occur again until the year, 2117. The last Venus transit across the sun happened in 1884.
In accordance with the AWAKENING, this rare and magnificent event is the key to the 2012 energies. Not only is the HEART activated to a higher frequency at this time, these good, good Venus vibrations bring in the full awakening of the 'feminine' in divine partnership with the 'masculine'.
Also, the portal, or the heavenly stargate now opens to dimensions beyond the imagination -- offering to everyone the full realization of humanity's potential.
On the paranormal front, all things paranormal will be coming out of the woodwork, so to speak. Some of this emergence will be subtle. However, in the month of June, UFOs will be making even more appearances worldwide.
Two other 'hidden' black projects are in the process of being brought out into the public light by the Good Forces. One is the secret space program, far in advance of NASA. Also, there will be hints of connections with other races, some of these races have been with humanity since the most ancient of times.
Likely, a couple of major events on the supernatural side will go viral in the next two weeks. The angelic realm is becoming more interactive with all of us.
On the food front, many will realize how important growing food locally is for the future. Out of this, those who are able to move to large acreages will do so, while others will create food gardens in smaller areas and in unique ways.
As well, an economy based on the land has begun, and will only expand despite brutal crackdowns. Further, as the climate continues to change on Mother Earth, 'eventually' there will be new types of food crops. Long dormant seeds will begin to grow again, and natural mutations will occur.
On the land changes front, the escalation in earthquake, volcanic, and superstorm activity will only increase across the planet. However, the brain-drain media will minimize these land changing events, even though weird weather will start to become the norm.
There are two major earthquakes forming, at this point in the Earth timeline, which could cause unbelievable devastation. One is natural and one would be triggered by manmade technologies. Remember: beware, take care, and as always, prepare.
On the really bad news front, currently one out of six Americans is starving. Many of them are educated, working, and have children. There is 'no' safety net available to them. There are good people creating food kitchens, and this trend will grow. As never before, now is the time to stand together and help each other out whenever and however we can. For, if we don't our future is far less than what it could be.
A note of caution: use discernment when offering help or accepting help. Not everyone walks on the good and compassionate side of life. Nor do they want to.
Trendwise, everything that once was in the spiritual realm of past Earth cultures is now rising to humanity's consciousness. This is being signaled by the discovery and excavation of the ancient temples at Gobekli Tepe in the country of Turkey.
The best and highest of the old ways, the rise of native traditions, spirals forth into the new age. Of course, the global cabal is using their evil tactics to diminish this knowledge and knowing.
This is the week to welcome the summer growing season. Notice the abundance around you already, and partake.

Book 3 in the Stud Service Series: Four sisters are forced to find a stud to get them pregnant or lose their fortune. Will time run out or will they find the stud they have been looking for?
Four grades, one teacher, it’s no wonder, then, that I learned how to get by on my own at an early age. There wasn’t a lot of structure to my early life at any rate. My dad died when I was 8, so again, I was left to my own devices a lot. I had school and I had home, and because we lived out in the sticks, that was about it. If I complained about being bored, I got put to work. I made my own fun, and wasn’t allowed to stay inside on a Saturday or Sunday if the weather was decent.
Of course, it was a different world, and really, I don’t think I would like to see us return to the way things were back then, fifty or so years ago. I’m intelligent enough to understand that while those times seem “better” to me on occasion, I’m peering at them through the prism of what I’ll call “filtered” memory.
No human rights, no medical coverage, and certainly even less sense of world security then than now (duck and cover, remember?) They weren’t really kinder, gentler times at all.
I never really wanted to turn into one of those older people who lamented that “back in my day things were so much better”. But I’ve discovered that I have from time to time, and mostly only when I seem confounded by the pace and the mores of life today.
Every generation takes its turn at the wheel, with the generation that preceded it becoming back seat drivers—and the one coming up whining for the keys to the car.
I do my best to keep up with modern technology. But I have to tell you, there are times when I find it a real challenge.
There are some things that I think are wonderful, and a few things I think are lacking.
Sometimes I think I spend far too much time at my computer. It’s easy to do. I try to write at least 1,000 words a day, but really would be happier to triple that figure. That takes effort, and how much depends on the fickle moods of my muse—and my degree of discipline.
I would be lying to you if I were to tell you that I keep a sharp focus throughout the day. Sadly, I’m weak, and get distracted easily. I like to look around on Face Book, and I like to play a few games here and there.
I think there is a danger in spending too much time with online friends and not enough with face-to-face friends. I think parents need to monitor not only what their kids are doing online, but how long they are doing it each day. I worry not just about the fact these children aren’t getting exercise; I worry that they get their heads too far into the ‘virtual’ world, at the detriment of their ability to learn to cope with the real one.
However, were it not for this modern technology, I seriously don’t have a clue what my life would be like now.
Long before I began to make a living with my writing – and through this modern technology, I might add – I thought the internet a Godsend for those people who were mobility-challenged. My first experiences on line were in “free game rooms”. I’d go and play bingo, and chat, and there were so many elderly people in those game rooms who were thrilled to be communicating with others. For them, their computers represented their entire social life, especially those who were “shut-ins”.
For the most part, I believe that, despite “text speak” and the various and sundry short forms we see like LOL and IMO, using a computer does help the cause of literacy. As far as I’ve seen, this is well and good, with this one exception—and this is a pet peeve of mine.
My grandchildren can’t read what the schools these days call “cursive” communication—what we referred to back in my day as “writing” , which was as opposed to “printing”.
And I’m wondering if that sort of writing will become a lost art.
Love,
Morgan

"Hyper-dimensional physics as the one you know as Richard Hoagland would label it. It is an energy field that can be used to manipulate the minds of everyone present. Actually, the field has various uses."
"It's a worldwide broadcasting system for evil, isn't it?" I ask, as the knowing seizes my very being.
"Yes, my Sh’raka. That is the plan. However, as I spoke, there is a battle between the Good forces and the dark ones being waged for ultimate control of this universal broadcasting system."
"And that's where a stargate bridge from Mars, pyramid to pyramid... oh, I'm lost. Except if any worldwide mind-bending is to be done, why not for the sake of Good?"
"Precisely, my one. Once your energy completes the stargate between the pyramids that will assist the Good forces."
"Oh." I tremble, both with fear and excitement. Could I really be a link, a link between Mars and Earth?
Dhuroth reaches for my hand, enfolding it tenderly within his. "My beautiful woman, I will speak my earlier words to you. 'Your energy is of the Earth yet now your energies are beyond Earth.'"
My lion man draws me closer, and his gaze captures my soul. "You are the connection, my beloved. Your compassionate heart is the bridge of good that is required to create the stargate bridge."

ANGELIC FORECAST ~
The TIME OF ACTIVATION is here. The following week is about activating the extraordinary in everyone. For at this time, heavenly frequencies rain down on humankind like a superstorm. These diamond-sparkling energies will only continue, and will be adjusted to assist each one of us as future challenges unfold.
On the personal front, there is a raging thirst within your being to live anew, to create your life differently. Drink in these 'activating' frequencies by mentally accepting this gift from the Divine, and you will discover new trails to blaze. This is also the time to look at your personal genetic roots, to draw strength from your ancestors and your ancestral culture -- every heritage within you.
On the paranormal front, hold onto your hats for the next several months. There will be an 'explosive volcanic eruption' of new information and truth. That is, if you keep an eye on the alternative media sites. This is *one* reason every effort is being made by 'those' across the world, who are allied with the military industrial complex, to shut down freedom on the internet. As well, they are centralizing their control over the brain-drain media even more than before.
On the economic front, all hell breaks loose in several financial arenas. 'Hell, no! We won't pay' will become the mantra in several countries that have been diabolically driven to the edge. The resistance to the bankster gangster regime is on, and gaining strength on the home front, as well as in many European nations. Within the next two weeks, the dollar will likely take a beating after being propped up. To counter the public's fear of a bank run, there will be some 'moves' by the evil powers-that-be to improve certain sectors of the economy while belittling anyone who tells the truth.
On the truth front, during the month of June 'truth' comes down on humanity like Thor's hammer. At the same time, the fierce and righteous dragon energy of 2012 spins around evildoers, revealing them for all to see.
On the AWAKENING front, a huge shift in AWARENESS occurs this week. This is most easily observed by how the global controllers react. Watch where and how 'they' tighten the noose on humanity. For, that will be the 'awareness' the soulless ones battle. Meanwhile, resistance to any form of tyranny continues to rise across the globe. The word 'freedom' sings from the hearts and souls of many, and this energetic symphony surrounds each one of us -- and surrounds Mother Earth.
On the war front, likely several surprise events will occur during the next two months as war-machine pieces are moved on the global chessboard by both the demonic side and the angelic side. This is a reflection of the intensifying war in the heavens between Good and evil -- as is the massive sightings of UFOs that have been occurring worldwide for the last several years.
On the food front, with an heirloom food revival happening across our beloved country, the giant corporations will be using their 'brute muscle' to shut it down. One of the best strategies is to ignore any 'insane' dictates. Keep saving and trading seeds on a local basis, and create an 'underground' community as fast as possible. Heirloom seeds are the future.
On the land changes front, due to the energies being fired by the sun, volcanoes are being activated on a large scale. More and more eruptions are taking place in the depths of the oceans. Also, predictions are being made for major earthquakes from this point until mid-September. As well, more superstorms are on the way. Beware, take care, and as always, prepare.
On the really bad news front, like mountains tumbling into the sea 'what was' is coming down from this point onward. This is due to the global machinations of the dark side, as well as the new vibrations of the Aquarian Age. Catastrophes loom for the rest of the year, both natural and manmade. It's time to bring forth your fortitude, your strength of character, and take care of yourself and your precious loved ones.
Trendwise, at this juncture, with the crackdown on weapons' ownership, and the planned elimination of the second amendment, a new class of entrepreneur will rise, and fast. They will invent and sell innovative weapons systems far superior to what exists currently. There will be no shortage of buyers.
From the prior forecast: "The following week will be explosive ~ from actual explosions to explosive events taking place all over the world. For, the human spirit will no longer tolerate any form of enslavement." ~ Followup note: While actual explosions took place in several areas, they were below the news radar of most people. The real explosiveness was in the stunning amount of hidden truths revealed last week.
This week take a look at yourself. What can you give yourself or do for yourself that would be a treat? As well, treat others to something fun and entertaining.

I am very excited to see Strictly Business has finally pre-released for advance orders on the Siren Booksite. It was the brainchild of four of us Siren authors and came out of a lot of emails and one very fun afternoon lunch where we came up with the idea that four sisters would have an ultimatum of getting pregnant or they would be flat broke.
They are all very smart, intelligent women that have focused on their careers and not their hearts.
But even with this kind of ultimatum, they think they can get out of marriage if they can just find a stud willing to help them make a baby. This is far from the truth.
When it comes to my body, it is difficult to keep my heart out of it. So, I couldn't picture the heroine I was writing (Susannah) any other way. She may be headstrong, and logical like a scientist almost always is, but she still believes in romance at heart. She believes in love and really needs to be loved for who she is, not because of her family's fortune and who her daddy is.
I have to admit that I loved writing this book, it was really fun and it makes it that much more exhilarating to see that it has finally made it out to the general public. :) Yay me!
Anyway, in case you missed it on the release day, this is a little more about the book:
