Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 162

[ecosophia]

We are now in the fourth year of these open posts. When I first posted a tentative hypothesis on the course of the Covid phenomenon, I had no idea that discussion on the subject would still be necessary more than three years later, much less that it would turn into so lively, complex, and troubling a conversation. Still, here we are. Crude death rates and other measures of collapsing public health are anomalously high in many countries, but nobody in authority wants to talk about the inadequately tested experimental Covid injections that are the most likely cause; public health authorities government shills for the pharmaceutical industry are still trying to push through laws that will allow them to force vaccinations on anyone they want; public trust in science is collapsing; and the story continues to unfold.

So it's time for another open post. The rules have been slightly modified: 

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 and its government enablers are causing injury and death on a massive scale. 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 wholly owned 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 plan on making off topic comments, please go away. This is an open post for discussion of the Covid epidemic, the vaccines, drugs, policies, and other measures that supposedly treat it, and other topics directly relevant to those things. It is not a place for general discussion of unrelated topics. Nor is it a place to ask for medical advice; giving such advice, unless you're a licensed health care provider, legally counts as practicing medicine without a license and is a crime in the US. Don't even go there.

5. 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. Also, please don't drag in current quarrels about sex, race, religions, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

Please also note that nothing posted here should be construed as medical advice, which neither I nor the commentariat (excepting those who are licensed medical providers) are qualified to give. Please take your medical questions to the licensed professional provider of your choice.

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Given that this is a season of flux - autumn and spring always are, with yin/yang oscillating - and given that I've been very attentive to my (low) basal body temperature as a symptom of an endocrine issue, and with my acupuncturist admonishing me to not allow myself to get cold... I noted fluctuations in my body's reaction to internal and internal temperature swings: periodically feeling inexplicably cold, periodically breaking out in a sweat. FWIW, I'm post menopausal so this is not those hot flashes.

I assumed n=1 until I read Egon Fischer's recent post ("The Big Cleaning Has Begun") https://efisch.substack.com/p/die-grosse-reinigung-hat-begonnen. He says (google translation):

"Many people are currently in a phase of energetic chaos

"When a person energetically changes from one energetic octave to the next higher vibrating octave, there is a transformation phase in which practically all energetic connections and shells are unstable.

"A big problem is that in this phase you are influenced for a long time by both the energies of the old octave and the energies of the new octave. However, since you are energetically weak and unstable in this phase, this also means that you react extremely strongly to external energetic influences and are energetically very vulnerable. This can be cosmic radiation, which is becoming increasingly more intense, or it can be influences from other people or the environment.

"The energetic manipulations are increasing and becoming more intense

"Unfortunately, the dark side also knows that people who are increasing their vibration and are about to move to the next energetic octave are very vulnerable and susceptible to manipulation. And they take full advantage of this. In the last few weeks, the individual energetic attacks on acquaintances and me have increased dramatically. But unfortunately there are also ways of energetically manipulating the energies in large areas. This can be radiation that has an adverse effect on the physical body, on the psyche (thoughts or emotions) or on the energetic system (e.g. the chakras). Many of my acquaintances are currently suffering from sudden hot flashes and sweating. For me it is quite extreme. In a few minutes I can get a hot flash and break out in a sweat, and shortly afterwards an inexplicable cold shock with cold sweat. Then my whole body freezes for a while."

so, just checking to see how you all are doing in this regard. It's highly possible that for me this is an n=1 phenomenon, but I'd be interested to hear if anyone else is experiencing temperature anomalies.

Recently I have been experiencing a much milder version of this -- occasional periods of feeling too warm and a little inflamed, alternating with periods of normal temperature. It doesn't seem to have any of the usual causes, though, so it's interesting to hear Fischer's account.

I keep a thermometer on my desk. The temperature doesn't change that much but my perception of how hot or cold it is, has.

[escorcher]

Wow.

Could help explain a few things I've experienced summer to now.

Another dead rat appeared today too, just as I was picking apples - they've been my (unconscious) leitmotif last couple of years.

I was also amazed to read one of the comments to Egon's post mentioning the "get the vax" voices (among other messages being pushed onto people). I know a few of the regulars here read and have commented over there, but the one I read was from a German reader who I don't think was an ecosophian.

I've felt singular 'rain drops' on my legs or arm when there is no rain and probably no leaking air conditioner.

Just feel it and it's gone. No idea what it is.

[(Anonymous)]

I've felt that my whole life. Happened earlier today as well!

hot + cold

Yes, I have been experiencing this on and off for some 10+ years. I mentioned it at one time when it was particularly acute to a "naturopathic" GP, early in 2021, who had little clue what it might have been (fortunately she didn't resort to everyone's favourite explanation for anything they can't otherwise explain, ie menopause.) She mentioned low yin and suggested Siberian ginseng.

It recurs now and then, usually involving worse than usual inability to sleep and also intolerance of food.

The "depleted" yin would be related to ongoing issues with individual energetic balance and I suppose would constitute part of a sensitive type's susceptibilities in Fischer's terminology.

Places where I have read interesting commentary on this type of phenomenon include John Bowlby's biography of Charles Darwin, and the blog post mentioned a week or two ago on MM regarding kundalini psychosis.

Yup, I recognize this too in the past week. In my case it usually coincides with inner emotional turbulence.
