Why doesn't anyone care about this disastrous oil spill in the Gulf?

[Cleita]

Why aren't we throwing all our psychic abilities jointly into reversing this? I know I personally can't go down there to try to save wildlife and try to mitigate the damage, but I tried to send what prayers and light that I could and my efforts are drowned out because too few of us are doing this. I feel as if I am being drowned in the oil and I know it's because not too many are helping.

Please help!

1. I'm with you on that. n/t

[Cleita]

4. Thank you. n/t

[Celebration]

2. I'm certain we all care?

How about a number of us print out this pattern, and put a "wish" on it, concerning the oil spill.

I have been meaning to do that, and I am glad you reminded me. Will do tomorrow am and then stick it under either a pyramid or other radionics device.

Here's a photo from my recent trip to the gulf coast, to help motivate people--

[Cleita]

3. Thank you Celebration.

I have to go to sleep now, but I will be concentrating on this all weekend until I have to go to work on Monday.

[I Have A Dream]

5. Yes, very important!

I used celebration's method. I will continue in other ways. I will be participating in a meditation with some very spiritually-minded people today. I will introduce this issue there as well.

Thank you for the reminder, Cleita.

[Delphinus]

6. Thank you, Cleita,

for the reminder that we are stronger together than alone.

I add my energies to all who are working to abate the devastation. AND may we LEARN from this so as to not continue along a foolish and destructive path.

7. I am envisioning the oil eating bacteria

thriving in the warm waters....cleaning it up.

8. It's not that no one cares, Cleita. I think we all care about this.

It is soooo overwhelming and it hurts to think about what this disaster will mean for the people who live in that area and the wildlife who live and migrate through there. But you're right that we all need to send our positive energies in that direction to try and mitigate some of the damage. Thanks for reminding us that we all need to work together.

9. based on messages I received a couple weeks ago and was reminded of

this morning, I have shifted my focus and am sending pure love and light to the wildlife...all animals and plants affected in the region.

I have not had much time to post lately, but had wanted to share the following. Apologies in advance if it comes out somewhat incoherent. Some time ago Karen Bishop had written something to the effect that "some of us" were holding together the energies of the earth, and were no longer able to or going to do this. At the time, I kind of scoffed. It didn't resonate. But within a few weeks, while doing stalls, I got the sense that it is true. Many of us -- and that includes the us in here -- for decades have devoted much of our light energy to forestalling the negative repercussions of our short-sighted activities on earth, postponing the potentially devastating effects of global climate change for as long as possible, buying time in an attempt to get enough people to understand what we are doing in order to change policies and activities. Instead, as we all know, the last decade in particular was not only wasted, but the opposite -- the deregulation and fostering of Big Oil to the mutual detriment of earth and all her species, not to mention blowing off the tops of mountains, trashing our environment, etc.

That time is past. I think that is why, Cleita, you feel that "nobody cares" and that you are overwhelmed in the oil and nobody else is helping. The sense I get is that many of "us" have pulled back. And so there actually are many fewer of us actively engaged in forestalling the effects of our mutual bad behavior.

It's not that they or we have given up. They or we have "given over" to gaia earth and the universe. That if we stop the oil, too many people will go back to "business as usual" and the needed changes in our behavior will not be made. This is our collective karma. We can take it now, or we can continue to forestall, in which case it will be even unimaginably worse.

I think that is what Karen Bishop meant. That is the message I got a few weeks ago, and was reminded of again this morning.

:hug: :hug: :hug:

[Kookaburra]

10. That's what I'm getting

It's not a matter of no one caring. We certainly care. It feels more like this mess is all by design in order to open the eyes of those who've ignored or denied for so long. As painful as it is to witness and live through, it is needed.

[NuttyFluffers]

11. i'm getting the same as well. it's a counter-play against future tragedy

it's a way of making the path to more off-shore drilling look downright dangerous and foolish. to make it untenable by making the most pro-oil segment of our nation to have an accident in their backyard and neuter the "it's safe, we know what we're doing!" argument once and for all. only mindless sycophants can still cheerlead for this off-shore drilling -- and they'll be seen through like the empty suits they are.

[MorningGlow]

13. Agree

The timing was remarkable--right after the coal mining disaster and concurrently with Miss Moose Poo's insistence that we "drill, baby, drill". (Honestly, that woman is so inept, I swear she's secretly on our side and screwing up on purpose! :rofl:)

I truly feel that the oil spill is another wakeup call to show even the most stubborn of humans that we can't continue on as we always have. It's time to change.

A tough lesson, but a necessary one.

Yes, I'm heartbroken at all the wildlife that will suffer, but they also know that sometimes the bigger lesson is more important. Still, of course it never hurts to send light to minimize the damage done. :hug:

[Celebration]

14. also, so closely following

Obama's opening of Gulf waters to more drilling!! Sounds like a cry for help.

[Mist]

32. Thanks for posting that, northernlights. You hit on something I've been feeling--this one won't be

easily "fixed," and therefore won't be easily forgotten.

[Celebration]

12. ok, I printed it and my affirmation

I feel it is best to be specific, and I chose to concentrate on stopping the flow of oil from the well. Others might choose to envision breaking up the oil, or helping the wildlife.

[Cleita]

15. I'm too am trying to be specific to save the wildlife and the innocent humans

whose livelihoods will be affected by this. I'm trying to tell the winds to stop blowing because they are sending the slick into the bayous and the wildlife in the oceans to swim as far away as they can from the disaster. I hope our collective efforts will be felt.

[BlueIris]

16. I don't think it's that nobody cares, it's that many of us (read: BlueIris) are completely

tapped out. What little energy and, dare I post it, hope, we have left is being reserved for our own problems and futures. It's not that I don't care--I actually did do a little emoting for the Gulf this past week--it's just that I have next to nothing left to give.

[Cleita]

17. I understand how you feel and what you say is probably why I'm feeling

overwhelmed by this, which is why I sent out a call for help. :hug:

[rumpel]

18. I just came here to make a suggestion post!

every time I hear the reports it makes me cry since yesterday...

I will start a new thread of my suggestion - like minds, Cleita..

[Celebration]

19. some of the specifics are listed here

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=115x245189

Adding our specific intentions to any or all of these specific measures would probably be best. I find that this stuff (intention) works best in combination with positive physical action.

[Fire Walk With Me]

20. This is, sadly, the time of "events" which will further wake us up to the overall need

to take care of the planet. It's never been about "there's a safe place to throw that junk" and not have it come back to slap us in the face; it's now about that being ever more clear to everybody. The pendulum swings. The energies transit polarities. A dark disaster inspires a bright solution and greater awareness. Unfortunately. :(

I often pray for the removal of everything harmful to Mother Earth. I'll join in the other prayers as well.

[WhiteTara]

21. Rumpel has a great suggestion

infuse every drop of water in your life with love. Every time you drink, wash your hands, flush, water your flower, infuse it with love so strong that it flows to the water in the gulf.

I am devastated. I do care deeply and I am still feeling stunned at this latest disaster.

[rumpel]

22. I just put a message to the noosphere global brainpaint

and on edit

before me someone had posted "save our oceans"

[rumpel]

23. FYI sharing just images since I posted the thoughts there...

notice the heart shape...


and some image appearing on the right



on edit: even though..the image is based on data of another space & time...

[Cleita]

25. Enchanting images. They are stunning.

So many thanks for putting these up rumpel.

[rumpel]

28. I know it is what we all feel here

curious if Prof.Nelson will have an analysis on the spill.. :(

[OneGrassRoot]

33. Thanks so much, rumpel....

:hug:

Do you by any chance recall the scientist's name...the gentleman from Japan, I believe, who works with changing the structure of water molecules?

[FirstLight]

24. I've been sending healing flow to the gulf...

But I also have been getting very strongly that this is yet another cog in the wheels of change that we are going to see in the next few years. More disasters of this type to show us what HAS to change, and to *cause* changes as well...as awful as it is - it has to happen to break the trends. Humans don't change unless they are forced to....and the earth has to change as well.


I'm really holding for some justice - closing down big oil and companies like Haliburton....THAT's what I want to see come from all this mess :mad:

[rumpel]

26. Yes, I am happy that the leasing is put on hold

I think CA has been opposing offshore drilling because of a spill in Santa Barbara some years back. It is obviously not that people do not learn, it is a deliberate dismissal of the negative by those that profit in the short time, and they know the days are numbered and want to maximize. Politicians or government have to find the guts to say; sorry, we just have to find alternate ways of how we live and produce things. Some materials may become obsolete, but so be it! There are many brilliant minds on the globe who will invent something new and safer to replace.
and those that work in the industries, there will be new ones...

[tango-tee]

27. I have the feeling of being overwhelmed by the extent of this tragedy.

The wildlife, nature itself suffering, people's livelihood at stake. I want to cry in the face of so much man-made destruction.

From this side of the world, I'm joining all of you in sending prayers and light.

[Fire Walk With Me]

35. It is wise to detach from the immediate trouble and to attain some positive state

from which, you may be useful, energetically, to the planet and its ills...peace...

[LWolf]

29. I care.

How about a time when we can all send at the same time?

[FirstLight]

30. Haven't actually 'watched' the news about this

Just reading is bad enough. and the pics are disturbing enough too...

Animals washing up - it gives me physical pain to think of the death throes these poor creatures are having to endure.

Not sure if I have the strength to snd healing flow, like someone said upthread, we are all so damn tapped right now!

But I keep praying for some miracles to happen that will turn this around, that's all I can think to do :cry:

poor earth...

[Cleita]

31. I find it so hard myself.

But you gave me an image to think of. When you said "poor earth", I thought maybe the best thing would be to surround and hug her as if she were our mother, making her feel loved and sending her the strength to overcome this.

[northernlights]

34. I've been reading the news, and looking at the 90 day timeline

And I suddenly just realized the timeline for the "relief well." Apparently now instead of a relief well, they're going to try to plug it with concrete. Which if done too fast, causes gas to rise and explode...has been the cause of prior Halliburton oil well explosions and likely was the cause of this one.

The timeline...the timeline. 90 days. From end April/early May to end July/early August.

Just in time for the grand cross. I have such a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach, sick with fear for the gulf, for earth... worse than it was before I checked the calendar. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
