Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 29

[ecosophia]

The semi-open posts  I've hosted here on the Covid-19 narrative, the inadequately tested experimental drugs for it, and the whole cascading mess surrounding them have continued to field a very high number of comments -- to understate the matter considerably! -- so I'm opening yet another space for discussion. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 
 
3. If you plan on using rent-a-troll derailing or disruption tactics, please go away. I'm quite familiar with the standard tactics used by troll farms to disrupt online forums, and am ready, willing, and able -- and in fact quite eager -- to ban people permanently for engaging in them here. Oh, and I also lurk on other Covid-19 vaccine skeptic blogs, so I'm likely to notice when the same posts are showing up on more than one venue. 

4. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, as Canadian officials launch a campaign of reprisals against citizens who supported a peaceful protest against government policy, and the words "died suddenly" become the favorite media euphemism of our time, the floor is open for discussion.

A few months ago I had several very vivid dreams in the span of three weeks or so. Almost like nightmares, but one stuck out as really weird.

I was dreaming I was taking a nap (yeah, I know, weird), and I woke up because of a rising wind and rumbles of thunder. I looked out my bedroom window, and the clouds were scooting by dark and low and in fast forward mode, like you see in a movie or on TV. Then I heard a horn/trumpet, very loud, and the thought "Judgement Day!" came into my mind. This was followed by a fearful moment of "this could be bad", as I'm an agnostic.

Then I heard something else odd from the living room, like from a TV - and it was a crowd chanting in unison, "wheel of fortune!". Now I'm familiar with the concept of predestination, but I have never heard of any religion that has a core belief that when you die and are judged, the destination of your soul comes down to a spin of a giant game show wheel.

Lately, I've been sleeping like a baby with pleasant dreams....;-)

Do you read Tarot?

[drhooves]

No, can't say as I know much at all about Tarot. However, I will admit that I'm less narrow-minded than I used to be when it comes to experiences, beliefs and practices interacting outside of what I understand to be the material plane. Reincarnation, astrology, Tarot readings, nature spirits, demons, pagan gods, magic, etc., are concepts I would have dismissed with little consideration a couple of decades ago. Since following JMG from the ADR days over the last dozen years or so, I've picked up a few ideas and certainly have gained much respect for the posters here that do go outside of x,y,z and time.

I'm still technically an agnostic, but the needle is more centered now, and not leaning as strongly towards the materialist and atheist side of the meter.

Don't know if ivn66 will pick up from here. But your dream seems to have drawn two cards from the major arcana.

From the Rider Waite deck, here's Judgment

and here's Wheel of Fortune

I wonder if the Wheel of Fortune in fact was regarding to our 'fate in the plane material', I mean, what will happen to us in this material existence in the years ahead.

BTW, I was also agnostic, I came to JMG from the Oil Crash fringes (where I'm still active publishing technical articles) to TAD, but after all, I'm becoming more and more spiritual.

The fact that my wife had this kind of dreams before util her last: the dead of her father right the day well about two months before. She had blocked such dreams since then, but I wonder if it was her who put that dream into my mind given that whe was the one informing me to go home and avoid people. That was part of my departure from 'material plane only'.

Beamspot.

Thank you for the replies and clarification. I read a bit on Tarot and the two cards that Anonymous posted, and the dream I had would seem to be related to the spiritual aspect of judgement and wheel of fortune. It certainly was very unique, and it did cross my mind that the connection to the astral plane was unusually strong from my past experiences. I'll have to do some more reading and contemplation on this - venturing outside of the material plane is little scary to me, to be honest.
