Greetings

Truths

Truths appear in drips, streams, flows and pours. Drinking from the fountains of truth holds pleasures and benefits galore. Yep, truths poured in and truths poured out -- to constructively share. Truths sure can favorably do our lives well.

Initially, truths don’t always please our thirsty appetites. Often, though, when we allow them to rest in soak formation, to marinate and then to sink in thoroughly, our thirsts are satisfyingly quenched. Acceptance of truths adds to successful accomplishments of our action plans -- with relish.

Certainly, digesting truth proves good for our systems.

Bay Leaves

Tommy Jeffries
Came across this and figured I would share.
These are called "Bay leaves"
Many people add bay leaves to foods especially jollof rice (Nigerian), red meat and poultry but do you know why bay leaves are added to food?
When asked why, some reply: to add flavor to the food👐

Do you know that If you boil some bay leaves in a glass of water and taste it, it will have no flavor?
Now why do you put bay leaves in the meat?
The addition of bay leaves to meat converts triglycerides to monounsaturated fats, and for experimentation and confirmation:
Cut the chicken in half and cook each half in a pan and place on one bay leaf, and the other without bay leaf and observe the amount of fat in both pans.
If you have bay leaves, there is no need for a pharmacy. Recent scientific studies have shown that bay leaves have many benefits & helps to get rid of many serious health problems and illnesses.
The benefits of bay leaf are: -
*Bay leaf treats digestive disorders and helps eliminate lumps, Heartburn, Acidity & Constipation.
*It helps regulate bowel movement by drinking hot bay tea.
*It lowers blood sugar and bay leaf is also an antioxidant
*It allows the body to produce insulin by eating it or drinking bay tea for a month.
*IT eliminates bad cholesterol and relieves the body of triglycerides.
*It's very useful in treating colds, flu and severe cough as it is a rich source of vitamin "C", you can boil the leaves and inhale steam to get rid of phlegm and reduce the severity of cough.
*Bay leaf protects the heart from seizures and strokes as it contains cardiovascular protective compounds.
*It's rich in acids such as caffeic acid, quercetin, eigonol and bartolinide, substances that prevent the formation of cancer cells in the body.
*It eliminates insomnia and anxiety, if taken before bed, helps you relax and sleep peacefully.
Drinking a cup of boiled bay leaves twice a day breaks kidney stones and cures infections ...
Just like garlic and ginger are a must find amongst my collection of spices, Bay leaves are a must see in my collection of spices too(my little spice secrets to good aroma and flavor)

Indian Agate, Opal, Flower Green Stone

Agate Crystal Stone

Here is an excerpt with descriptive info about it (the link to the entire article is below):

"This alone makes Black Agate very appropriate for that reason alone – yet beyond that, the energy surrounding Black Agate is soothing in its own right.

"It is also recognized as a stone of potential, so it’s just as high in uses for those of us still living in the material world.

"It activates ideas, enriches your sense of inspiration and is almost hypnotic to look at – solid black, yet capturing the light in simple, elegant ways.

"Of course, this is just one of the many Agate colors, but oftentimes the stone has common values and properties that make any choice of color the right one.

"It’s a very protective stone that can ward off any kind of harm or negative energy. Keep it inside your purse or slip it in your pocket whenever and wherever.

"The beauty of this is that this stone cannot help but calm and inspire you, even if you do not fully understand the overall Agate meaning and what it can offer you.

"Likewise, anyone who is a skeptic of New Age healing or similar spiritual practices can similarly benefit from having an Agate stone close at hand for good luck.

"It will bestow its blessings upon yourself and your nearest and dearest even without any direct belief, faith or encouragement.

"The immediate beauty of Agate stones, together with their cost effectiveness and how easily a skilled craftsman or woman can shape the rock, makes it a popular gift.

"Therefore, you might be encouraged to find that you can help someone you love obtain the benefits of Agate and its influence, without insisting they follow this world view.

"Simply offer Agate in the form of jewelry, stitched as a sequin into clothing, or via an otherwise thoughtful handmade gift, to really convey its positive energies to anyone of your choosing.

"While those not inclined towards these matters may not thank you directly, you may well find that he or she enjoys a sudden upswing in good health, relaxed outlooks and overall peace of mind!"

Red Agate

Rituals

Place in the center of the circle when we invoke spirits or forces that tend to be deceptive or that may confuse us.

***

Black Has More Poweer Than White



Used by Permission From Darshelle Wynn
on FB:

Sandy Thaxton-Hicks absolutely.
This is the issue between the colored and recessive. We the “colored” are directly connected and one with the cosmos/nature... the elements. They’re tearing our earth apart trying to find themselves in it trying to find any connection of themselves to it and they will not. Dark energy makes up 73% of our universe and matter atleast 25%. It is where the real power is.
They won’t just tell us this though. Too much power in it. But, it is here and it is for us to use. All the good vs bad stuff is merely an illusion. What’s good to you may be bad to me.
Perception. Illusion.

Michael Jackson

Update -- 2:22 p.m. - Saturday March 2, 2019

Songs played Saturn day in Jupiter Hour


YESTERDAY at 2:07 p.m. EST, I posted in a FB group:

"2:07 p.m. EST Friday March 1, 2019
Minutes ago, Michael Jackson spoke these words to me, "They're making my name "mud" -- but I'm in a HIGH place."

***

TODAY, I was listening to music play from the R & B Classics channel on my FIOS provider.

The FIRST song that came on that struck me was:

"With a Child's Heart," by Michael Jackson.

The lyrics are as follows:
With a Child's Heart
Michael Jackson
With a child's heart
Go face the worries of the day
With a child's heart
Turn each problem into play
No need to worry no need to fear
Just being alive makes it all so very clear
With a child's heart
Nothing can ever get you down
With a child's heart
You've got no reason to frown
Love is as welcome
As a sunny sunny day
No grown-up thoughts
To lead our hearts astray
Take life easy, so easy nice and easy
Like a child so peaceful and so carefree
The whole world smiles with you
As you go your merry way
Oh with a child's heart
Nothing's gonna get me down

***

The SECOND song that came on was "Stairway to Heaven,"
by the O'Jays.

The THIRD song that same on was "Someday We'll Be Together," by Diana Ross.

I was so blown away that I cried with love and gratitude.

Super Moon


There is a SUPER Full Moon:

January, February and March 2019.

Excerpt from article (the link to entire article is below):

"The next supermoon comes with the January 21 full moon, which is, moreover, to stage a total lunar eclipse. This supermoon on January 21 ushers in the first in a series of three full supermoons falling on January 21, February 19 and March 21, 2019. Of these, the February 19th full moon showcases the closest and largest full supermoon of 2019.

"Supermoons don’t look bigger to the eye than ordinary full moons, although experienced observers say they can detect a difference.

"But supermoons do look brighter than ordinary full moons! The angular diameter of a supermoon is about 7 percent greater than that of the average-size full moon and 14 percent greater than the angular diameter of a micro-moon (year’s farthest and smallest full moon). Yet, a supermoon exceeds the area (disk size) and brightness of an average-size full moon by some 15 percent – and the micro-moon by some 30 percent. For a visual reference, the size difference between a supermoon and micro-moon is proportionally similar to that of a U.S. quarter versus a U.S. nickel."

Bees and Shungite

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L36BmM_Gme4


This video is about Shungite stone.  It mentions about a Shungite refrigerator magnet to be placed on the OUTSIDE of the fridge door or on the outside of it on the SIDE. The man in the video mentions about a specific Shungite magnet from a particular website.  I went to the site and saw that the price was about $40 for the subject magnet. 

I decided to go to Amazon and found a Shungite magnet for $10.00.  The one from the subject site, however, may be more potent than the one from Amazon.  I'm trying the Amazon less expensive one first.  If I deem it reasonable, I may later get the magnet from the site www.cosmicreality.net.  

In the video, link below, the narrator mentions how he has tested a lemon, and food that was marked expired.  He expressed that after applying the magnet to the OUTSIDE of his fridge, the subject food lasted LONGER . . .  He tells about that starting at about the 6:20 mark on the video through about the 10:19 mark on it.
