According to the “Complete Guide to Aliens,” the Pleiadians have a distinctive “Nordic,” or Scandinavian appearance, 700-year lifespans, and while they are, in evolutionary terms, still a work in progress, they are far more emotionally and spiritually developed than earth humans.
The Pleiades: Facts and Myths
Also called the “Seven Sisters,” the Pleiades are a group of stars in the Taurus constellation. Astronomers refer to the group as M45 — the designation comes from the work of 18th century French astronomer Charles Messier, who identified and cataloged astronomical objects.
At a distance of 444.2 light-years, the closest star cluster to earth, the Pleiades are used to plot distance using a method called the “cosmic distance ladder.”
The cluster’s brightest star is Alcyone, judged to be seven times brighter than our sun. There are actually more than 1,000 stars within the cluster, and under optimal conditions, around 14 stars may be seen with the naked eye.
Most, when looking at the cluster without magnification, see six stars — but there are seven, and the “lost” seventh star is a common theme in multiple mythologies, including Indonesian, African, Australian, European, and Native American.
The Pleiades in Ancient Greek Cosmology
The Pleiades were the seven daughters of the pre-Olympian Titan Atlas, and Pleione, a nymph.
According to myth, the Pleiades, named Maia, Electra, Alcyone, Taygete, Celaeno, Merope, and Asterope, were dedicated to Artemis, the Greek goddess of the moon and the hunt.
Orion the Hunter had been placed in the sky, along with the scorpion that killed him, by Zeus. Prior to his death, Orion saw the seven sisters and set off to capture them. Zeus, in pity for their plight, turned them into stars and placed them in heaven.
Artemis was furious with Zeus and the mortal Orion. She convinced Zeus to send a monstrous scorpion to attack Orion — the hunter died from the stings.
After his death, Zeus placed Orion the sky in eternal pursuit of the sisters, and perpetual flight from the scorpion, or scorpio constellation.
The cluster was also used by the ancient Mediterraneans to signal the beginning and end of sailing season according to the Oxford English Dictionary.
The cluster appears in Homer’s Odyssey and Iliad, referenced as a signal for the beginning of planting season in May. Hesiod, another Greek epic poet, referenced the Pleiades in his poem, Theogony.
Western Hermeticism, Esoteric Symbolism, and the Pleiades
Hermeticism, an esoteric system based on writings attributed to the Hermes Trismegistus, includes treatises on the esoteric symbolism of constellations and planets. Hermes may have been from Greece or Egypt, but has been referred to as “a son of the Nile.”
He is also believed to be the father of Western astrology and alchemy. His writings are rumored to have first appeared in second century (AD) Rome, and he has always been associated with the Greek god Hermes as well as the Egyptian Thoth.
According to Hermetic traditions, the seven stars open seekers to a more refined level of consciousness. Viewed as a “school of learning” by hermeticists, only those who have been purified of energetic blocks to the subtle body.
Invitation to and initiation into the Pleiadian wisdom teachings come spontaneously during sleep or deep meditation. The Pleiades are also viewed as our solar system’s source of electrical energy from the little sister star Electra.
The Pleiades in Norse, Celtic, and Bronze Age Mythology
The Nebra Disk, found in 1999 by treasure hunters in the Saxony-Anhalt region of Germany, portrays the star cluster with the moon and sun — dated to 1600 BCE, researchers believe it may have been a portable astronomical instrument. The artifact is the earliest known portrayal of the Pleiades cluster in the West.
In Bronze Age Europe, the Autumn solstice and Winter equinox were associated with grief and mourning.
At the solstice, the Pleiades would rise in the east as the sunset in the west, thus the association with mourning and the passing of summer as well as the harvest season.
To Scandinavian, or Viking cultures, the Pleiades were thought of as Freyja’s chicks, Frejya being the Norse goddess of love, beauty, and fertility.
For protection, some would paint seven spots, representing the seven stars, on hen houses. Ladybugs were associated with the cluster because of the seven spots on their wings.
The Pleiades in Asian Cosmologies
The first astronomical mention of the star cluster was in the Chinese Annals of roughly 2350 BC and was referred to as the Blossom Stars or Flower Stars.
The sprawling Xiaoling Mausoleum is the tomb complex of the Hongwu Emperor, founder of the Ming Dynasty. Located near Nanjing in Eastern China, when viewed from the air, the tomb complex echos the arrangement of the visible Pleiadian stars.
According to author Wayne Herschel, the author of The Hidden Records, this geoformation is a star map. Called the “treasure mound,” the tomb is said to hold “great cosmic secrets beyond gold treasure.”
In Japan, Subaru, or the Pleiades, is more than the name of an auto manufacturer — it also relates to the cultural value of “harmonious grouping,” or in modern parlance, “teamwork,” a characteristic of samurai and shogun societies.
According to myth, Amaterasu, the Japanese sun goddess quarreled with her brother Susanowo, the embodiment of the power of nature. Intimidated, she hid in a cave.
The world went dark, and to entice her back out, her jewels were hung from a sacred tree nearby — eventually, she left the cave and returned to the sky so the earth would once again be nourished by her light.
Amaterasu’s jewels were associated with the Subaru, or Pleiades cluster. The story is an allegory — just as the sun becomes low in the sky in winter, the Subaru ‘jewels’ can be seen as a reminder that the sun will return in spring.
Hindu mythology holds that the seven sisters, called the Krrtika, were married to the Rishis, the seven sages that made up the stars of the Great Dipper. All lived together happily in the northern sky.
One day Agni, the god of fire, saw the Krrtika and fell in love. He knew they belonged to the Rishis, and despondent, he wandered in a forest trying to forget them.
But the little goddess Svahi, embodied by the star Zeta Reticuli, saw Agni and was smitten. She disguised herself as the Krrtika and offered herself to him — he believed he had won the Rishis’ wives.
Svaha became pregnant, and when her child was born, a rumor spread that six of the Rishis’ wives were somehow the baby’s mother(s).
When the seven Rishis heard this, they divorced their wives, but one, Arundhati (the star Alcor) refused to leave her husband. The other six wives became the stars of the Pleiades.
In Vedic astrology, the degrees of 26 Aries to 10 Taurus are ruled by the Krittika, or Pleiades. One born under the influences of the sisters is said to be fiery, warlike, and adventurous.
Under an aggressive exterior, the natives have a deeply nurturing quality and have great capacities to support others.
Native American Pleiades Myths
A Cherokee myth tells the story of seven boys who played a game with rolling stone and sticks, called gatayu’sti, all day. They neglected their chores such as weeding the gardens. Their mothers nagged them without success — one day they gave the boys boiled gatayu’sti stones for dinner instead of corn.
Angry, the boys began to dance and pray for help from the spirits. Eventually, their mothers searched and found them dancing, but with every circle, the boys danced they lifted higher off the ground. The mothers ran to retrieve their sons, but too late — they boys were now out of reach.
Eventually, the boys rose into the heavens and became the Pleiades cluster, which the Cherokee still call Ani’tsutsa (the boys).
According to an article in Indian Country Today, “The Iroquois, Delaware, Carrier, Inuit, Haida, Salish, Paiute, Wiyot, Shasta, Luiseño, Chumash, Zuni, Cheyenne, and Blackfoot have all labeled the shining collection [Pleiades cluster].”
The article also notes the slightly elusive quality of the cluster — rather than looking directly at the grouping, the constellation is much clearer when viewed with peripheral vision.
Citing a myth from the California Sierra and Paiute tribes, the author shares the story of the Grizzly Sisters and the Deer Sisters (Pleiades).
“One day Grizzly mother ate Deer mother. Deer sisters retaliated by trapping Grizzly sisters in a cave.”
The midwestern Dakota believed that the cluster is the Tiyami, abode of the ancestors, and when we die, we go to live in the Pleiades. One famous story is how seven maidens were being hunted by a bear.
The girls prayed to the gods, who responded by raising the ground under their feet high into the air. The angry bear clawed at the earth, leaving claw marks, but finally gave up and left.
The maidens were turned into stars and placed in the sky for eternal safekeeping, and the spot where they stood is now Wyoming’s “Devil’s Tower,” complete with huge vertical striations thought to be bear claw marks.
This is a small sample of Pleiadian myth and symbolism. This relatively tiny star cluster has taken on proportionally huge significance in almost every ancient tradition and cosmology.
Perhaps we instinctively assign great significance to the Pleiades because we have a place for them in our collective consciousness — for now, we don’t know why, but perhaps we’ll find out as consciousness evolves.

humansarefree--2020-03-23--Italian Virologist Said Fears of Racism Slowed Down Coronavirus Response

An Italian virologist has said that fears of being accused of racism slowed the Italian government ’ s initial response to the coronavirus ( COVID-19 ) epidemic .
Dr. Giorgio Palù is a Professor of Virology and Microbiology at the University of Padova , and he was formerly the President of the European and Italian Society for Virology .

He said the country @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the beginning ” because of “ too much politics.

“ Then it became seen as racist , but they were people coming from the outbreak.

The first confirmed cases of the infection in Italy were found in two Chinese tourists in January .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ 36,000 confirmed cases , and nearly 4,000 people have died from the disease .
The shortsightedness of Italy ’ s government regarding the virus as a result of political correctness has not been limited to the national government .

Nardella even tweeted a video of himself hugging a Chinese man .

Northern Italy has now become the epicenter of the outbreak in Italy .

The Role of Zinc in Antiviral Immunity
ABSTRACT
Zinc is an essential trace element that is crucial for growth, development, and the maintenance of immune function. Its influence reaches all organs and cell types, representing an integral component of approximately 10% of the human proteome, and encompassing hundreds of key enzymes and transcription factors.
Zinc deficiency is strikingly common, affecting up to a quarter of the population in developing countries, but also affecting distinct populations in the developed world as a result of lifestyle, age, and disease-mediated factors.
Consequently, zinc status is a critical factor that can influence antiviral immunity, particularly as zinc-deficient populations are often most at risk of acquiring viral infections such as HIV or hepatitis C virus. This review summarizes current basic science and clinical evidence examining zinc as a direct antiviral, as well as a stimulant of antiviral immunity.
An abundance of evidence has accumulated over the past 50 y to demonstrate the antiviral activity of zinc against a variety of viruses, and via numerous mechanisms.
Clinical studies using zinc supplementation are primarily limited to rhinovirus infection, and are often grouped with other “common cold” viruses such as influenza and coronaviruses.
The majority of studies use zinc lozenges with various zinc formulations and concentrations, possibly explaining the large variability in results [extensively reviewed in (108) and (109)].
Importantly, the amount of ionic zinc present at the site of infection (oral and nasal mucosa) is highly correlated to the study outcome (51, 108), and is dependent on the zinc formulation.
At a physiological pH and 37°C, zinc gluconate for example, releases high amounts of ionic zinc, whereas zinc aspartate releases none (108).
Upon examining only the relevant studies where high doses of ionic zinc were used, a clear reduction in cold duration of 42% was calculated (109).
Whether this was caused by viral inhibition, improved local immune response, or an amelioration of symptoms remains uncertain.

“The People Rushed Out of the Church & Saw In The Sky A Ship With Men on Board” – Gervase of Tilbury, 1211

There are many examples of well documented cases , and one great one from the ancient world comes in the form of a ninth century Latin passage which , a thousand years later , is still inspiring the works of multiple UFO researchers around the globe .
Liber contra insulam vulgi opinionem is the name of the document .
In this document , the Archbishop of Lyons complained about a persistent belief among the French peasantry regarding a “ certain region called Magonia from whence come ships in the clouds.
” ( UFOs for the 21st Century Mind ) How @ @ @ @ @ @ @ whence come ships in the clouds ” given the fact that this passage is from the ninth century .
Truly amazing to say the least .
According to the belief , the occupants of these vessels would “ carry back to that region those fruits o the earth which are destroyed by hail and tempests : the sailors paying rewards to the storm wizards and themselves receiving corn and other produce.
” The Archbishop even said three men and a woman who had claimed to have “ fallen from these same ships ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ event he personally had witnessed .
( UFOs for the 21st Century Mind ) Another example comes from the 13th century , from England .
In the year 1211 , Gervase of Tilbury , a chronicler of historical events and strange , unexplainable phenomenon , wrote this : There happened in the borough of Cloera , one Sunday , while the people were at Mass , a marvel .

humansarefree--2020-03-24--Spontaneous Healing: A Miracle, Magic, Synchronicity, or Self Control?

During my seven year study of spiritual healing in preparation for researching and finally writing my book Sacred Medicine : A Doctor ’ s Quest To Unravel The Mysteries of Miraculous Healing , I had long pondered the way the hundreds of people I have interviewed talk about healing .
The most conventional point of view comes from those who experienced life-threatening illnesses and credit conventional medicine for saving their lives .
They had heart attacks , strokes , cancer , brain aneurysms , life-threatening infection , or traumatic injuries that likely would have killed them , were it not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Some of the people whose lives were saved via conventional medicine express deep gratitude to the doctors , drugs , and machines that saved their lives , and they bow at the feet of modern medicine .
Others seem to expect such outcomes , as if it ’ s ordinary and normal to have your life saved by medical technology , as if none of it is miraculous , as if it is merely science .
Yet not everyone is saved by modern medicine .
While conventional medicine can work miracles for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tends to let people down when it comes to chronic illness or disability .
This is when people tend to seek out other approaches in a quest to relieve suffering .
Some find relief with using food as medicine or herbal approaches .
Some swear by homeopathy , chiropractic medicine , or acupuncture .
Some go to yoga or meditation seeking solutions .
Some still find themselves lost and suffering , having tried all of the above , without relief .
It is these people — and those who serve them — who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of study for me .
Those who Western medicine has given up on , who CAM modalities have failed to treat , who eat well , exercise , meditate , and take all their vitamins , supplements , and herbs — and yet , still they suffer .
These are the people my heart goes out to .
These are the people I pray I can help through what I ’ ve learned .
Having listened to countless stories , I have become curious and interested in the language people who have experienced @ @ @ @ @ @ @ healing ” use to describe their experience of unexpected and often unexplainable cure .
The mind just loves to make meaning of mysterious phenomena , so we all have our strategies , myself included , for trying to explain the numinous .
For some who have been the beneficiaries of such healing , they speak of miracles and interpret the event as Divine intervention , a gift from God , which was an act of grace , something they did not cause and often did not feel they deserved because they did not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ interpret healing from an “ incurable ” illness which conventional medicine has failed to treat as a “ miracle ” are often tearfully grateful , still charged with emotion many years later to have been the recipient of such an unearned blessing .
In Jungian psychologist Robert Hopcke ’ s book There Are No Accidents , he tells the story of Juanita , who considered her healing a miracle .
A Puerto Rican-American woman who had suffered severe , untreatable psoriasis on her hands for most of her life , Juanita had given @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cured .
Conventional medicine had failed to give her any relief , as had native herbal remedies and poultices .
Then one day , she was praying — not about her psoriasis , but a more general sort of prayer — when she heard a sweet , maternal , loving voice she identified as Mother Mary , which filled her with an ecstatically blissful feeling of wellbeing .
The venerated Virgin gave her very clear instructions — Immerse your hands in water and give thanks to God for your healing.
” Stunned but @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was told , filling her bathroom sink with water and dunking her hands in the water while expressing her gratitude for her healing .
Within a week , her lifelong psoriasis was cured , never to return .
In the case of a miracle , the healing fits into a conventional world view of cause and effect , the cause being God , the effect being cure .
For those who are religiously oriented , this kind of explanation for a mysterious phenomenon sits squarely with a “ God is in control and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which evokes intense gratitude and wonder , which fits with the etymology of the word “ miracle , ” which stems from “ mirari , ” or “ to look at in wonder.
” Miracles evoke awe , disarming us with wonder .
Gregg Braden explains how the energy field of human emotions can manifest “ miracles ” , whether it is healing or creating peace , when you apply conscious positive focus on what you want : Others treat anomalous healing as a kind of magic , often mediated by someone who @ @ @ @ @ @ @ like a shaman or healer or witch doctor .
Supposing that this powerful creature can manipulate reality in a way that appears as if an affliction is suddenly and sometimes instantaneously removed , their language is different than those who perceive that they have been the recipient of a miracle .
Gratitude is still tantamount , but in these cases , the gratitude is often poured upon the powerful being who facilitated the magical event .
As with a miracle caused by God , there is a sense of causation here — only @ @ @ @ @ @ @ caused the cure .
Sometimes in situations like this , gratitude is tempered by an expectation of such an event , since they may have paid good money or made a long pilgrimage in order to “ earn ” such an outcome .
In other words , the healing is seen less as a gift , less as grace , and more as a transaction .
I give the healer $ 300 , and in exchange , the healer gives me the cure I purchased , in which case , I am grateful @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in creating it .
In this case , those who are cured often use language to suggest that they are in some way causal to the outcome , as opposed to those who believe they received a miracle , which they perceive as acausal , something they did nothing to create , something unrepeatable , unexpected , and unearned .
Such is the case for Will , who was nine years old when he was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumor , which , because of its location was inoperable .
His father @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in conventional medicine , was skeptical when his mother wanted to take him to see the now fallen-from-grace spiritual healer John of God .
Will was told he would need to come ever day to the inner sanctum of the space where John of God does his healings at the Casa in Brazil , so his parents risked leaving him there so he could get daily “ treatment.
” He spent two years sitting with John of God until the day John of God announced , “ You are now healed ” and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ 24 years old and studying to be a therapist who can help people who are in the terror of a devastating diagnosis .
Will credits John of God with his healing and believes John of God indeed has special powers .
Before John of God ’ s arrest , he had made many pilgrimages to Brazil with others who were seeking healing and can attest to witnessing many inexplicable cures facilitated by John of God ’ s healings .
While Will ultimately believes it was God who healed him via the famous healer @ @ @ @ @ @ @ gets placed on John of God , rather than directly on Divine intervention , as Juanita experienced it .
Still others use the language of self-healing or manifestation , as if the healing is caused by the individual who is healed through an act of will , the force of discipline , or the exercising of personal spiritual power .
If these people succeed in achieving full cure , they claim to have healed themselves and take credit for the healing personally .
When those same people fail to achieve the outcome they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to express frustration , disappointment , or despair if they have exerted great effort to “ heal themselves ” only to have failed to achieve the outcome they are seeking .
Self-healers tend to believe healing is under a person ’ s conscious control , so a failure to heal can activate a particularly distressing kind of panic , not just because the illness causes suffering but because the attempts to control reality and manifest what they want seem to have unpredictable efficacy .
If they ’ re not getting the outcome they @ @ @ @ @ @ @ as a spiritual failure , as if they ’ re not trying hard enough or surrendering enough or employing enough discipline to counteract their negative thoughts and beliefs .
Mark healed in this way .
After conventional medicine failed to relieve the chronic pain syndrome that plagued him after a sports injury , he sought out CAM modalities .
When those also failed to help , he got his hands on every self-help book he could find and started experimenting with the mind-body connection .
After years of discovering what helped to relieve @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , he began examining and questioning his thoughts , clearing and releasing past traumas , and installing positive imagery , beliefs , and experiences .
A couple of years of devoted practice to these mind-body techniques led to full resolution of his agonizing pain .
Because he employed so much effort , and because nothing else had worked , the story he tells is that he healed herself .
He expresses immense gratitude , sometimes to the point of happy tears , and he believes a spiritual source helped free him from the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ wheelchair .
But he doesn ’ t believe any of this would have happened without his effort and willpower .
Sometimes healing seems to come as a kind of acausal synchronicity .
It would feel like a meaningless coincidence if we weren ’ t swept into the emotions of awe , wonder , and surprise that tend to accompany synchronicity .
This was the case in the spontaneous resolution of my vision .
Starting in medical school , my vision deteriorated and I had to start wearing corrective lenses .
For the past @ @ @ @ @ @ @ stable at 20/200 .
But slowly my vision started getting worse .
Thinking I needed new contacts , I went to my ophthalmologist .
Turns out I couldn ’ t see because my vision was now 20/30 and my contacts were overcorrecting me .
She said , “ That ’ s impossible.
” I lost my shit and said , “ DO NOT TELL ME THAT ’ S IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE IT JUST HAPPENED IN FRONT OF YOUR VERY EYES .
TELL ME “ I DIDN ’ T KNOW THAT WAS POSSIBLE.
” A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ vision retested and it ’ s now 20/20 .
Did I heal myself ?
I wasn ’ t trying to clear my vision .
I didn ’ t go see some healer and ask for help healing my vision .
I didn ’ t hear a voice or see a vision that told me to go bath in this waterfall and my vision would be restored .
It just happened .
Sure , I ’ ve been studying spiritual healing for many years , and I ’ ve had healers offer me sessions @ @ @ @ @ @ @ meditating for many years .
I ’ ve been seeing a trauma therapist to clear past traumas .
But did any of these interventions cause my vision to improve ?
Did God grant me a gift ?
Did I do this myself ?
I have no idea .
All I can say is that I am awash in gratitude .
I think about it every day , how blessed I feel , how grateful I am .
I hope I never take it for granted that something “ impossible ” happened to me @ @ @ @ @ @ @ All these stories got me thinking … The mind SO wants to understand how healing happens so we can control it .
( Trust me , this curiosity and desire to control healing is the very foundation of what fueled my Sacred Medicine quest ! )
But what if healing is more mysterious than the mind can possibly understand ?
Maybe it ’ s more like getting pregnant or falling in love than getting a medical degree .
If you want a medical degree , you have to have a certain amount of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ tackle the rigorous classes you have to take to gain entry into medical school .
But if you have the brainpower and the discipline , becoming a doctor is a matter of will more than grace .
You study hard .
You sacrifice your personal life , your sleep , your creative pursuits , and maybe your health , and if you stick with it and keep plodding , one foot in front of another , twelve years later , you wind up a doctor .
It ’ s pretty controllable , assuming @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and the money to pay for school .
Pregnancy or falling in love , on the other hand , are far more mysterious .
Sure , you can exercise your discipline and the force of your will to improve your chances of getting pregnant .
You can track your ovulation cycle , have sex at all the right times , eat certain foods , take supplements , and even seek medical intervention through an infertility specialist if natural methods aren ’ t working .
But as any infertile couple will tell you @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
It happens or it doesn ’ t .
Sometimes it happens unexpectedly and people are shocked and unhappy .
Other times couples are desperate to get pregnant but pregnancy eludes them .
Pregnancy is always a kind of grace , something uncontrollable and mysterious , a spark of life that comes when and if it wants to come .
Falling in love is similarly uncontrollable .
Sure , you can try online dating , ask your friends to set you up , and do your best to be a kind , attractive @ @ @ @ @ @ @ who has experienced unrequited love can tell you , there ’ s nothing you can do to make someone you adore love you back , and there ’ s nothing you can do to make yourself feel erotic charge with someone who might , by all rational measures , seem perfect for you .
Physical attraction and falling in love are more like pregnancy than getting a medical degree .
I suspect healing is more like pregnancy or falling in love .
Sure , we can pray like Juanita and hope for a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ mystic healers and hope they can intervene on our behalf .
We can be personally proactive , like Mark , to lay the foundation for healing — or getting pregnant or finding true love .
My book Mind Over Medicine was written for people like Mark who want to be proactive about doing everything in your personal power to achieve the best possible health outcome .
The Healing Soul Tribe takes this kind of personal empowerment a step further , as we gather in community to practice the Six Steps To Healing Yourself @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Sacred Medicine techniques intended to make your body ripe for miracles .
I ’ m all for doing what we can to be proactive about self-healing , while also acknowledging the limits of what we can control .
But whether or not any individual will be the recipient of a “ spontaneous ” healing is forever a mystery .
To heal is derived from the root “ to become whole.
” Healing is ultimately about wholeness .
Maybe the journey to wholeness is the whole point .
When wholeness is restored through connection @ @ @ @ @ @ @ within , when the fractured self comes together in an integrated way , when synchronicity allows us to be in the right frame of mind , in the right open hearted state , when we ’ re not grasping for what we want but surrendered into a whole-hearted sense of well being with life just as it is , maybe a portal opens and the interconnected web of life can mysteriously enable unexpected cure , pregnancy , or love .
But can we control it with our feeble human will ?
I don @ @ @ @ @ @ @ it ’ s supposed to be that way .
Maybe we are always supposed to bow in awe of the mystery .
Maybe the mystery doesn ’ t want to be hacked .
If we could hack healing — or pregnancy or falling in love — and control the outcome so we could always get what we want , how would we ever learn humility ?

During my seven year study of spiritual healing in preparation for researching and finally writing my book Sacred Medicine: A Doctor’s Quest To Unravel The Mysteries of Miraculous Healing, I had long pondered the way the hundreds of people I have interviewed talk about healing.
The most conventional point of view comes from those who experienced life-threatening illnesses and credit conventional medicine for saving their lives. They had heart attacks, strokes, cancer, brain aneurysms, life-threatening infection, or traumatic injuries that likely would have killed them, were it not for the miracles of modern medical technology.
Some of the people whose lives were saved via conventional medicine express deep gratitude to the doctors, drugs, and machines that saved their lives, and they bow at the feet of modern medicine. Others seem to expect such outcomes, as if it’s ordinary and normal to have your life saved by medical technology, as if none of it is miraculous, as if it is merely science.
Yet not everyone is saved by modern medicine. While conventional medicine can work miracles for acute illness and traumatic injury, it tends to let people down when it comes to chronic illness or disability. This is when people tend to seek out other approaches in a quest to relieve suffering.
Some find relief with using food as medicine or herbal approaches. Some swear by homeopathy, chiropractic medicine, or acupuncture. Some go to yoga or meditation seeking solutions. Some still find themselves lost and suffering, having tried all of the above, without relief.
It is these people — and those who serve them — who have been the subject of a decade of study for me. Those who Western medicine has given up on, who CAM modalities have failed to treat, who eat well, exercise, meditate, and take all their vitamins, supplements, and herbs — and yet, still they suffer. These are the people my heart goes out to. These are the people I pray I can help through what I’ve learned.
Having listened to countless stories, I have become curious and interested in the language people who have experienced what I’ll call “anomalous healing” use to describe their experience of unexpected and often unexplainable cure. The mind just loves to make meaning of mysterious phenomena, so we all have our strategies, myself included, for trying to explain the numinous.
Healing As Miracle
For some who have been the beneficiaries of such healing, they speak of miracles and interpret the event as Divine intervention, a gift from God, which was an act of grace, something they did not cause and often did not feel they deserved because they did not consider themselves unusually pious.
Those who interpret healing from an “incurable” illness which conventional medicine has failed to treat as a “miracle” are often tearfully grateful, still charged with emotion many years later to have been the recipient of such an unearned blessing.
In Jungian psychologist Robert Hopcke’s book There Are No Accidents, he tells the story of Juanita, who considered her healing a miracle. A Puerto Rican-American woman who had suffered severe, untreatable psoriasis on her hands for most of her life, Juanita had given up hope that she would ever be cured.
Conventional medicine had failed to give her any relief, as had native herbal remedies and poultices. Then one day, she was praying — not about her psoriasis, but a more general sort of prayer — when she heard a sweet, maternal, loving voice she identified as Mother Mary, which filled her with an ecstatically blissful feeling of wellbeing. The venerated Virgin gave her very clear instructions — Immerse your hands in water and give thanks to God for your healing.”
Stunned but devoutly obedient, Juanita did as she was told, filling her bathroom sink with water and dunking her hands in the water while expressing her gratitude for her healing. Within a week, her lifelong psoriasis was cured, never to return. In the case of a miracle, the healing fits into a conventional world view of cause and effect, the cause being God, the effect being cure.
For those who are religiously oriented, this kind of explanation for a mysterious phenomenon sits squarely with a “God is in control and we are not” world view, which evokes intense gratitude and wonder, which fits with the etymology of the word “miracle,” which stems from “mirari,” or “to look at in wonder.” Miracles evoke awe, disarming us with wonder.
Gregg Braden explains how the energy field of human emotions can manifest “miracles”, whether it is healing or creating peace, when you apply conscious positive focus on what you want:
Healing As Magic
Others treat anomalous healing as a kind of magic, often mediated by someone who they have imbued with supernatural powers, like a shaman or healer or witch doctor. Supposing that this powerful creature can manipulate reality in a way that appears as if an affliction is suddenly and sometimes instantaneously removed, their language is different than those who perceive that they have been the recipient of a miracle.
Gratitude is still tantamount, but in these cases, the gratitude is often poured upon the powerful being who facilitated the magical event. As with a miracle caused by God, there is a sense of causation here — only the perception is that the supernatural human caused the cure.
Sometimes in situations like this, gratitude is tempered by an expectation of such an event, since they may have paid good money or made a long pilgrimage in order to “earn” such an outcome. In other words, the healing is seen less as a gift, less as grace, and more as a transaction. I give the healer $300, and in exchange, the healer gives me the cure I purchased, in which case, I am grateful for the cure, but I participated in creating it.
In this case, those who are cured often use language to suggest that they are in some way causal to the outcome, as opposed to those who believe they received a miracle, which they perceive as acausal, something they did nothing to create, something unrepeatable, unexpected, and unearned.
Such is the case for Will, who was nine years old when he was diagnosed with an incurable brain tumor, which, because of its location was inoperable.
His father, a cardiologist and die hard believer in conventional medicine, was skeptical when his mother wanted to take him to see the now fallen-from-grace spiritual healer John of God. Will was told he would need to come ever day to the inner sanctum of the space where John of God does his healings at the Casa in Brazil, so his parents risked leaving him there so he could get daily “treatment.”
He spent two years sitting with John of God until the day John of God announced, “You are now healed” and sent him home. Will is now 24 years old and studying to be a therapist who can help people who are in the terror of a devastating diagnosis. Will credits John of God with his healing and believes John of God indeed has special powers.
Before John of God’s arrest, he had made many pilgrimages to Brazil with others who were seeking healing and can attest to witnessing many inexplicable cures facilitated by John of God’s healings. While Will ultimately believes it was God who healed him via the famous healer, nevertheless, the cause and credit gets placed on John of God, rather than directly on Divine intervention, as Juanita experienced it.
Self-Healing
Still others use the language of self-healing or manifestation, as if the healing is caused by the individual who is healed through an act of will, the force of discipline, or the exercising of personal spiritual power. If these people succeed in achieving full cure, they claim to have healed themselves and take credit for the healing personally.
When those same people fail to achieve the outcome they are trying to manifest, they tend to express frustration, disappointment, or despair if they have exerted great effort to “heal themselves” only to have failed to achieve the outcome they are seeking.
Self-healers tend to believe healing is under a person’s conscious control, so a failure to heal can activate a particularly distressing kind of panic, not just because the illness causes suffering but because the attempts to control reality and manifest what they want seem to have unpredictable efficacy.
If they’re not getting the outcome they want, they tend to interpret it as a spiritual failure, as if they’re not trying hard enough or surrendering enough or employing enough discipline to counteract their negative thoughts and beliefs.
Mark healed in this way. After conventional medicine failed to relieve the chronic pain syndrome that plagued him after a sports injury, he sought out CAM modalities. When those also failed to help, he got his hands on every self-help book he could find and started experimenting with the mind-body connection.
After years of discovering what helped to relieve his pain and what didn’t, he began examining and questioning his thoughts, clearing and releasing past traumas, and installing positive imagery, beliefs, and experiences.
A couple of years of devoted practice to these mind-body techniques led to full resolution of his agonizing pain. Because he employed so much effort, and because nothing else had worked, the story he tells is that he healed herself.
He expresses immense gratitude, sometimes to the point of happy tears, and he believes a spiritual source helped free him from the debilitating pain that left him in a wheelchair. But he doesn’t believe any of this would have happened without his effort and willpower.
Healing As Synchronicity
Sometimes healing seems to come as a kind of acausal synchronicity. It would feel like a meaningless coincidence if we weren’t swept into the emotions of awe, wonder, and surprise that tend to accompany synchronicity. This was the case in the spontaneous resolution of my vision. Starting in medical school, my vision deteriorated and I had to start wearing corrective lenses.
For the past twenty years, my contact prescription was stable at 20/200. But slowly my vision started getting worse. Thinking I needed new contacts, I went to my ophthalmologist. Turns out I couldn’t see because my vision was now 20/30 and my contacts were overcorrecting me. She said, “That’s impossible.”
I lost my shit and said, “DO NOT TELL ME THAT’S IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE IT JUST HAPPENED IN FRONT OF YOUR VERY EYES. TELL ME “I DIDN’T KNOW THAT WAS POSSIBLE.” A few months later, I got my vision retested and it’s now 20/20.
Did I heal myself? I wasn’t trying to clear my vision. I didn’t go see some healer and ask for help healing my vision. I didn’t hear a voice or see a vision that told me to go bath in this waterfall and my vision would be restored. It just happened.
Sure, I’ve been studying spiritual healing for many years, and I’ve had healers offer me sessions. I’ve been praying and meditating for many years. I’ve been seeing a trauma therapist to clear past traumas. But did any of these interventions cause my vision to improve? Did God grant me a gift? Did I do this myself? I have no idea.
All I can say is that I am awash in gratitude. I think about it every day, how blessed I feel, how grateful I am. I hope I never take it for granted that something “impossible” happened to me.
Is Healing Something We Control?
All these stories got me thinking … The mind SO wants to understand how healing happens so we can control it. (Trust me, this curiosity and desire to control healing is the very foundation of what fueled my Sacred Medicine quest!) But what if healing is more mysterious than the mind can possibly understand? Maybe it’s more like getting pregnant or falling in love than getting a medical degree.
If you want a medical degree, you have to have a certain amount of intellectual fortitude to be smart enough to tackle the rigorous classes you have to take to gain entry into medical school. But if you have the brainpower and the discipline, becoming a doctor is a matter of will more than grace.
You study hard. You sacrifice your personal life, your sleep, your creative pursuits, and maybe your health, and if you stick with it and keep plodding, one foot in front of another, twelve years later, you wind up a doctor. It’s pretty controllable, assuming you have the brains, the discipline, and the money to pay for school.
Pregnancy or falling in love, on the other hand, are far more mysterious. Sure, you can exercise your discipline and the force of your will to improve your chances of getting pregnant.
You can track your ovulation cycle, have sex at all the right times, eat certain foods, take supplements, and even seek medical intervention through an infertility specialist if natural methods aren’t working. But as any infertile couple will tell you, you cannot control getting pregnant. It happens or it doesn’t.
Sometimes it happens unexpectedly and people are shocked and unhappy. Other times couples are desperate to get pregnant but pregnancy eludes them. Pregnancy is always a kind of grace, something uncontrollable and mysterious, a spark of life that comes when and if it wants to come.
Falling in love is similarly uncontrollable. Sure, you can try online dating, ask your friends to set you up, and do your best to be a kind, attractive, lovable person.
But as anyone who has experienced unrequited love can tell you, there’s nothing you can do to make someone you adore love you back, and there’s nothing you can do to make yourself feel erotic charge with someone who might, by all rational measures, seem perfect for you. Physical attraction and falling in love are more like pregnancy than getting a medical degree.
I suspect healing is more like pregnancy or falling in love. Sure, we can pray like Juanita and hope for a miracle. We can seek out powerful mystic healers and hope they can intervene on our behalf. We can be personally proactive, like Mark, to lay the foundation for healing — or getting pregnant or finding true love.
My book Mind Over Medicine was written for people like Mark who want to be proactive about doing everything in your personal power to achieve the best possible health outcome.
The Healing Soul Tribe takes this kind of personal empowerment a step further, as we gather in community to practice the Six Steps To Healing Yourself together, along with engaging together in Sacred Medicine techniques intended to make your body ripe for miracles.
I’m all for doing what we can to be proactive about self-healing, while also acknowledging the limits of what we can control. But whether or not any individual will be the recipient of a “spontaneous” healing is forever a mystery.
To heal is derived from the root “to become whole.” Healing is ultimately about wholeness. Maybe the journey to wholeness is the whole point.
When wholeness is restored through connection to the Source of love and life within, when the fractured self comes together in an integrated way, when synchronicity allows us to be in the right frame of mind, in the right open hearted state, when we’re not grasping for what we want but surrendered into a whole-hearted sense of well being with life just as it is, maybe a portal opens and the interconnected web of life can mysteriously enable unexpected cure, pregnancy, or love. But can we control it with our feeble human will? I don’t really think so.
Maybe it’s supposed to be that way. Maybe we are always supposed to bow in awe of the mystery. Maybe the mystery doesn’t want to be hacked. If we could hack healing — or pregnancy or falling in love — and control the outcome so we could always get what we want, how would we ever learn humility? Why would we ever fall on our knees like Juanita did and pour our hearts out in gratitude for the unearned blessing of healing?
If we could be guaranteed that pushing our way to what we want would always work, what would provoke us to really let go, in full resignation and surrender, to open to a more expansive capacity of our human / Divine experience?
Maybe it is only in our acceptance of life just as it is — without cure, pregnancy, or an intimate partner — that we paradoxically touch the wholeness that enables what we might call miracles.
Perhaps it is this very relaxed receptivity that makes healing possible, but still not controllable. Maybe then healing is always a gift, one that should evoke intense, everlasting gratitude for the blessing of good health.
Maybe this state of grace and gratitude is what keeps us healthy after all … But then, what do I know?
Have You Been Blessed With Healing?
If you have ever been the recipient of healing, whether via conventional medicine, a miracle, a magical healer, or synchronicity, take a moment now to feel the immensity of the blessing you’ve received. If you feel inspired to do so, please share your story in the comments.

Finally, as we noted last night, Trump is now eager to recreate China’s experience and reopen the economy in under 2 weeks to avoid a second great depression. Needless to say, this will be problematic unless the US shifts into the recovery phase by then.
