Hello Friends, Both Old and New


Hello Friends, both old and new, and welcome to my new Facebook connections (many of you recently from the USA).


I am off the UK for a month and will be taking a break from the Internet (computer fasting) for about 5 weeks while I am visiting friends, family and seeing clients for astrologically based life change consultations.


This is a very quick introduction to what I am all about.


(Whilst I am away please look out for Dr Anne Hilty, coming soon on Reality Activist Podcasts—a project where I partner up with Daniel Clarke).


A New Paradigm for Understanding Reality

The focus of my lifelong research is based on the evolution of human consciousness, which I present as the Enchantments of Life. Here is a 101 website that gives you an entry into the map.


In the Future, We Will Belong to an Extraterrestrial Humanoid Community

A deep understanding of the Enchantments—and integral maps in general—shows that at the heart of life, there is a hierarchy of scales of community membership in evolution on Earth, where the concept of individual superiority seems less and less appropriate.


The Enchantments is a fusion of astrology with developmental theory, often called integral theory, based on psychological and sociological levels that reflect the whole story of human evolution.


My take on evolution also encompasses advanced ancient civilizations, the extraterrestrial presence, the 2012 phenomena and psychotropic and shamanic experience. My map emphasizes that consciousness and the energy field perspective is primary to understanding reality.


For Those Who Know the Enchantments: Two More Enchantments

Later this year I will be presenting two new Enchantments in my map that I have been researching for quite some time, Ceres and Jupiter Enchantments. These two Enchantments fit in between Red Mars and Blue Saturn Enchantments. I will also be sharing more sophisticated explanations that elucidate why the Enchantments of Life is at the frontier of understanding the evolutionary impulse of the life force.


After several years investigating the data available, coupled with experience from my own and other people’s lives, I am confident when I claim that the integral system known as Spiral Dynamics has reduced four distinct levels to two (no criticism of Spiral Dynamics intended).


The two new levels effectively change the whole view, the whole story of life on Earth. The colour I have assigned to the Ceres Enchantment is Lime (innocence) and for Jupiter Enchantment it is Maroon (potentiality).


For Astrologers

The Enchantments of Life is a pioneering development of astrology which shows and reflects that the planets represent levels of reality, as well as radiant field archetypes, and that the cyclical nature of planetary orbits emphasized in the astrology chart do not occur on a flat plane in space—everything spirals and vortexes in time as well as space as the Sun moves through the galaxy and the galaxy moves through the cosmos.


For Integralists and Psychologists

The Enchantments of Life recognizes the superb work done by Ken Wilber, as well as many others developmentalists who have contrasting positions and perspectives to Ken. It also recognizes the value of psychology for its lucidity in explaining the mechanics of evolution.


However, the Enchantments map emphasizes that the substance of existence, the context for psychology, transgresses the divide between objective reality and subjective reality and therefore, as it turns out, dissolves the absolutes of a crystallized linearity to human evolution.


What I am proposing is that the evolutionary pictures and integral maps I have seen miss the involution of the soul, the consciousness that ‘descends’ into linear time–space. The implications of involution are extraordinary … stay tuned.



I look forward to learning more about some of the exciting ideas being discussed by my FB connections when I get back.


Bye for now,

Laurence

Enchantments of Life 101



The Picture? Just because I like it and it might warm up England....ha.. well, I can but hope.

Attention!... it is the age of


I am delighted to see that Wikipedia now has an entry for the "attention age" as the age following on from the information age. This is something I have been crowing on about for years, hooorah.....

The Industrial Age is linked to the marker of 1 billion people on Earth; the Information Age indicator is about 3 billion; the Attention Age is allied to about 6.5 billion people on planet Earth. Why is this tied to population? Because more people mean a more complex global system -- more abundant, more adaptive.


The consciousness/energy age, which is consciousness allied to energy, will be here as we approach a population of 10 billion, from as early as 2035, or maybe 2050.

The upshot of that is that the door between consciousness and our technological civilization will be well and truly open, which means a post-technological age emerges and the environment is reframed as a conscious energy field, rather than a physical system.

Psychically Fecund Environment

A post-technological society is on the horizon, as technology is subsumed or subservient to consciousness, via the medium of energy fields.



Looking at the Fibonacci system, you can see how it reflects the exponential spiral growth of complex systems. You eventually get to a network of bifurcations that look like a brain. The Internet of course is the forerunner for the consciousness web of Earth, as suggested by the Internet map below...



Turquoise Enchantment
(The Human-Earth Direct Feedback Loop)

The emergence of global consciousness is allied to 2012, which measures cycles of the Earth's relationship with the Galaxy it lives in. 2012 marks the point when the planet rapidly starts to wake up to itself as a Timeship in the Galaxy. Humanity will be increasingly cognizant of this in the decades that follow 2012, thus reinforcing the Earth's self-awareness.

One billion is a fractal of 10 billion. The next age is a jump or change of civilization that is comparable to the shift humanity experienced in tandem with the emergence of the industrial and scientific age.

If you replace the data routes in the Internet map above with timelines, I suggest you will have a vision of Mr Multiverse.

Just a Thought (Delicous)



Changing the shape of things to come

I started writing a blog the other day and it has turned into 18 pages, ah well … here then is just a morsel.

We are due for another revolution that will rival the drama brought about by Copernicus.

Nicolaus Copernicus' realization that the Earth was moving through space may well have already been understood in ancient civilizations, who were perhaps of a different stream of evolution (for example, the Atlantean root race), or had been taught by extraterrestrial visitors.

However, the fact remains that Copernicus' 'metaphysical vision' was at the time seen as an anarchy, an irrational and idiotic suggestion to many, if not most, of the academics of his day. The truth is that science jumps ahead through intuitive vision as it leaves old assumptions behind.


What could rival the Heliocentric view. What could be next?


I feel it is the recognition that Earth is a timeship, not a spaceship, but a timeship. We are either moving through time, or time is moving through us. To be clear, I am not the first to suggest something along these lines.

A whole new horizon appears


If we recognize that our relationship with the substance of time is directly through our consciousness (for example, linear time is symbiotically entwined with linear mind) and is of a radically different order of existence compared to our relationship with space, we will have a whole new view of our placement in existence. In due course, we will have a whole new experience of reality.

Healing The Self


“Hey Crow Boy, where does healing fit into your fancy-pants evolutionary map?”

My position when talking about healing oneself is that it is primarily about forgiveness, which involves some release of old energy and some resolution of issues. It comes to a point in life, though, where one appreciates the wounds, the collateral damage of life, as that which has given us the quirks and twists in our psyche that fully colour our character.

There is also something to be said for rejoicing in our weirdness.


Ram Dass

“It is important to expect nothing, to take every experience, including the negative ones, as merely steps on the path, and to proceed.”

Baba Ram Dass, aka Richard Alpert, went through a wide range of life trips, starting with the psychological paradigm, which he called a theatre, then on to becoming an acid-head explorer, then further on to the holiness of Indian mysticism. As he matured, he then became a more irreverent version of himself. As a role-playing guru later in life, he stated “There is nowhere to stand,” in other words, there is no absolute fixed position to take. In one enlightening and amusing recording, Ram Dass talked about how you don’t really get rid of anything; that the therapist trip is effective only up to a point.

To quote him as I remember it, he said “Nowadays, when sexual perversion comes to visit me, I say ‘Hello, old friend. Come and sit down and have a cup of tea.’”


The Mystic’s Journey in the Theatre of Life
There comes a stage in our healing journey where we are not so identified with our adversities and imperfections, not so ruled by them nor trying that hard to get rid of them. We become more accepting, as we open up to a larger view and a whole new level of Enchantment that exists in the flow of paradox flow.

Moving into the heart, we accept life for its majesty. Life is far bigger than us, beyond our control, forever ongoing. Life is an adventure of consciousness.
