Dear Ones,

Here is an image depicting a wave of social unrest that I as an intuitive feel to be cresting Interstate 405 in Van Nuys, California, just past the Van Nuys City Hall, and heading, little by little, west towards the ocean.

We people of Los Angeles must do what we can to calm the waters, to stem the tide of social unrest, to house the homeless, and to make sure all Angelenos have enough to eat and a means of making enough money to care for their families.

Let us stand together in these times of change, with a positive attitude and a determination to help our people see their way through, till each and every one of us may get through this Solar Cycle 25, and the Solar Maximum in which we now find ourselves.

Let it be our vision and our intention that all humankind find firm footing in New Life on New Earth.

In love, light and joy,
I Am of the Stars

Pragmatic Prophet: Take Care to Avoid Threat of Violence Till Masks Come Off . by Alice B. Clagett

Dear Ones,

Here is a rough graph of California daily COVID cases, and another of California daily COVID deaths …

Image: “Comparison of California Daily COVID Cases to Deaths,” by Alice B. Clagett, 27 February 2022, CC BY-SA 4.0, CC BY-SA 4.0, from “Awakening with Planet Earth,” https://awakeningwithplanetearth.com … DESCRIPTION: Roughly traced from graphs found online … COMMENT: In January 2021, when the Delta variant of COVID was predominant, it is clear there was a surge of COVID cases and quite a spike in COVID deaths in California. About a year later, in mid-January 2022, when the Omicron variant of COVID was predominant, there were many more cases of COVID than in January 2021, and about 10 days later (which would have been the approximate incubation period), there was a lesser surge of deaths. This showed that Omicron was more infectious than Delta, and that it was less deadly. That is common knowledge, of course. But what concerns me is that, between the top of the California daily COVID deaths surge (about 29 January 2022) and yesterday (26 February 2022) the decrease in California COVID cases has not kept pace with the decrease in COVID cases. California COVID deaths remain high. The same is true for the concomitant graphs for the United States as a whole.

Dear Ones,

The day before yesterday I found this on my outdoor barbecue. It feels to me to be symbolic of the struggle of the poor to gain a financial foothold in the world, and especially here in America …

Dear Ones.

Here is a great interview by Leath Tonino with Douglas Christie. This interview was published in The Sun Magazine, a favorite read of mine, as I have a notion that some of my writer and poet friends here in Los Angeles have their works published in it under pen names. Here is the interview …

Link: “The Sun Interview: The Desert Within: Douglas Christie on the Power of Silence and Contemplation,” by Leath Tonino, in The Sun, January 2022 … https://www.thesunmagazine.org/issues/553/the-desert-within ..

The topic of the interview is the Christian tradition of leading the contemplative life, beginning with the desert fathers and mothers … the ‘abbas’ and ‘ammas’ … of the early Christian tradition. Hallmarks of this way of life, to which I as a Lightworker and a Christian have for many years subscribed, are living (insofar as is practical, in the current days) a secluded life, fasting, meditation in every waking moment, sexual abstinence, and prayer.

Dear Ones.

It appears to me from national and California coronavirus statistics since mid-January 2022 that the new Omicron variant BA.2, which appears to have been introduced in the United States in January, may be more lethal but somewhat less infectious than the original Omicron virus.
