With an ever increasing interest in homeopathic remedies, more people are looking into making their own healing balms for common conditions.

This drive is pushed in part by a mistrust of commercial products, many of which make claims that are supposedly based on science. Sadly, too often we find that the science behind commercial products is incomplete or just plain flawed.

Consumers are more aware than ever that many of the ingredients being used to make commercial products are not healthy. Studies are piling up against such ingredients and this head knowledge is being translated into action.

Since all commercial manufacturers have their eyes on profit margins and the personal care product industry is not well regulated, you can never be sure that all the ingredients being used are safe or really effective, especially for long term use.

As energetically sensitive human beings, you would do well to move with what the energies support at any given time. Much like you make plans around your weather, taking advantage of opportunities when the conditions support it, and putting things off if they do not, you would save yourself a lot of discomfort and struggle if you would do the same by honouring what the energies are good for each day. You do not need an expert to tell you. You simply need to be self aware, and trust that you are the expert on how the energies are affecting you.

We see so many humans with bodies that are shifting and desperately require some rest, ignore that in order to “get things done.” We find this interesting because under those circumstances, not much gets done at all, and what little does is usually fraught with difficulties and leaves the person feeling even more battered and worn. There are other times when the energies are supporting movement and activity when the human marvels at how much got done and with so little effort!

You would all save yourselves so much trouble and angst, and become far more comfortable and efficient if, just like with the weather, you would move when energetic opportunities arise that support your activities. It is a wise human who willingly moves with what the flow supports. ~Archangel Gabriel

First I'll explain how not to do it, as 5D isn't really understood through the ways we're used to gaining knowledge. You can't experience 5D through your physical senses, it's beyond all of those. You cannot touch, taste, smell, hear or see 5D, and this is part of what makes even beginning to comprehend 5D so difficult. Human beings are visually-oriented, which works just fine in the physical realm, but is actually kind of a hindrance when it comes to 5D. Even your imagination is most likely visual-based, so trying to imagine 5D isn't going to work very well either.

5D cannot be understood with the limited mind, though 5D can be felt through Consciousness. The mind is restricted to 4D, it cannot go beyond because the mind itself is a 4D entity. You also cannot have a memory of 5D, since memories are 4D constructs as well. You may have a memory of a transcendent experience, but the actual 5D connection is only truly felt in this Present Moment. Any memory you have is just a pale reflection.

There's a whole lot of people and channelers who get the upper astral (part of 4D) confused with the Celestial Realm (5D). The upper astral contains the religious "heavens", created largely out of what people believe they're supposed to see, and it contains things like the Akashic records. If it resembles the physical realm at all, if it's not a totally ego-eradicating, mind-blowing feeling of transcendental bliss, it's not 5D.

In what sounds like a chapter from Journey to the Center of the Earth, the chemical makeup of a tiny, extremely rare gemstone has made researchers think there's a massive water reservoir hundreds of miles under the earth.

The gemstone in question is called ringwoodite, which is created when olivine, a material that is extremely common in the mantle, is highly pressurized; when it’s exposed to less pressurized environments, it reverts into olivine. It has previously been seen in meteorites and created in a laboratory, but until now it had never been found in a sample of the earth’s mantle. 

Diamond expert Graham Pearson of the University of Alberta came across a seemingly worthless, three-millimeter piece of brown diamond that had been found in Mato Grosso, Brazil, while he was researching another type of mineral. Within that diamond, he and his team found ringwoodite—and they found that roughly 1.5 percent of the ringwoodite’s weight was made up of trapped water. The findings are published in Nature.
