Are we in a Spiritual battle? What I mean by a Spiritual Battle is that we are experiencing a battle of ideas, of thoughts, of emotions. Is this spiritual warfare part of a divine plan, or are dark forces behind the scenes perpetuating it?

The COVID19 Lockdown

I hadn’t written much in the past six months because so much has been going on. Every time I was about to write, I couldn’t decide on a topic that felt right. Instead, what I have been doing is going through older blog posts and updating them with new content and editing them.

What a strange/bizarre/scary past six months we have had. One moment I’m living a life that I had grown accustomed to, and then the next thing I’m living like I was on home arrest. What happened?

I have an offline job that was considered ‘essential’ during the lockdown, which permitted me to drive for work purposes.

The one thing I enjoyed about the lockdown was driving on the roads without having someone tailgating me. It was peaceful to feel the energy of the planet slow down. I live in a rural area, and during the first month of the lockdown, I saw more deer crossing the road than I have in the past eleven years.

During the night when I was outside, it was eerily quiet and still. No cars were riding past my house at all past 6:00 pm. Usually, cars are driving up and down my road all hours of the day and night. I enjoyed the stillness of it all.

I believe this was one of the good things about the lockdown.

What I didn’t like was the panic buying. The supermarket was out of meat, toilet paper, hand wipes, and sanitizer for weeks. The selfishness and greed of humanity never cease to amaze me.

Are We In A Spiritual Battle?

It seems like humanity is in a bad marriage. One side wants one thing, and the other side wants another. We have globalism vs. nationalism; we have liberalism vs. conservatism, we have communism vs. capitalism, we have to keep things the way they are vs. let’s be open to everyone and everything: no boundaries, no borders, no rule of law, and order.

We had some politicians telling us what to do while they broke their orders and did what they wanted and making excuses instead of holding themselves accountable.

We had people being arrested for not wearing facemasks, going to Parks and Playgrounds, and we have people who believe the law of man does not apply to them.

We have incompetent leaders in positions of power that are bought and paid for by people in the shadows. Some people believe that perhaps the mythical Satan Figure is behind all this madness going on at this time.

Humanity is at a crossroads, and we need to figure a direction that serves our best interests while not violating some else.

What Would Charlemagne Do?

This is a short channeled message from the Great Emperor Charlemagne.

I would bring the people of my lands together under a common cause that unites us all. I do not believe in a divided nation as you do now. I would listen to all sides of concerns about current challenges in my lands.

Anyone, group, or faction that undermines my authority of rulership will be banished from my lands. I do not tolerate problem causers in my lands.

When I rule, people understand I mean business. I see that times are much different now than they were in my time. I would not initially use my might to get my people in line with my vision for my lands.

As I previously stated, anyone who is against me is forever banished from my lands.

Everyone else who wishes to stay under my lead will have to be part of my team in one way or another. As a unified Country, we are mighty; as a divided country, we are vulnerable to attack, from outside and within.

The American Presidential Election

This election will be interesting. It seems on this front; we are also divided as a nation. I wouldn’t say I like that 51% to 49% wins an election. I wish we could elect a higher percentage win president. Perhaps the two-party system needs to be changed.

Maybe in the future, we will have a council that runs the United States instead of a party, similar to our Supreme Court. Since we all do not think the same, have the same values, or feel genuinely represented by our leaders, a supreme council would be in charge of the U.S.policy making.

As I stated, the Supreme Council will be of the utmost integrity and will fairly represent the people of the nation. To be on the Supreme Council, you would have to have a high degree of empathy balanced by an even higher degree of intelligence.

There will no longer be any special rules or laws for specific groups. Law will be applied equally to all people because we are one.

As many people have found out during the COVID Lockdowns, our Governors, Mayors, and County Executives have more influence over our daily lives than the President does.

I would be extremely mindful of the political choices when voting for people in the above positions because they are the ones that decided when to lock down and when to open back up.

Chaos & Anarchy

Lots of riots, lots of looting, and lots of anger. What’s going on? Humans are angry and always have been. It’s because our emotional systems are not fully developed. In the U.S., we have everything covered. If you need food, we have food to give; if you need a place to live, we have shelters, if you need medical care, we have hospitals.

So what are we so angry about? I believe it is about emotional freedom. People do not truly feel free to be who they are. It’s like we are expected to act like politicians putting a ‘phony face’ on for the crowd. Heaven forbid anyone sees us have a bad day.

I would recommend seeking out ways to create more freedom for yourself and locate the causes that keep you stuck in situations that hinder your freedom.

It’s All About Freedom

The idea of America was about freedom, but how free are you? It seems everyone and their brother wants to control you from the time you are born until the time you die. That’s not much of an experience of life.

However, to have a civil society, we need to agree upon some basic standard rules. In your house, you have a rule that whenever someone enters, they must take off their shoes. As a ‘good guest,’ it would be easy to follow these simple demands. But, if you don’t like being told what to do, then we have a problem.

I would suggest you leave and go somewhere else, instead of being a problem for other people. Perhaps you could do some soul searching and uncover why you have a problem with someone asking you to take off your shoes when inside the house.

Personal Rights

You are never a criminal for defending yourself regardless of what human laws there may be. Excessive force is never a good idea when protecting yourself. For example, if someone bumps into you, it’s not a right to punch them in the face.

If someone calls you a name that triggers you and you beat the crap out of them, I suggest you go to therapy while you’re in jail.

Humans have created lots of laws and removed laws that no longer fit in the current world.

Objective Media

Anyone with a set of eyes can see that most major media companies feed the same news from the same perspective. I want to go back to unbiased, objective reporting. It’s certainly okay to have an opinion about politics; however, we need to realize there is a responsibility with information when given.

If a news source is writing an article, it should be stated that it is biased and has an agenda to create a perception deception.

Humans Are Flawed

I know I am not perfect, I believe in self-correcting when I veer off course, and everyone should be afforded the same opportunity. I’m not a believer in non-stop criticizing someone in political power.

Remember, we are all on a spiritual growth journey, and we are all at different points on the road. Help people when you can, don’t make them dependent on you.

What About The Moderates?

What is a moderate? A Moderate is someone on the political spectrum that is neither totally right nor left-leaning. They are smack dab in the middle of political opinion.

For many moderates, they have values on both the left and the right. Maybe someone agrees with same-sex marriage but also agrees it’s okay to say Merry Christmas instead of Happy Holidays as an example. Most moderates do not lean towards a particular party and often vote either Democrat or Republican, depending on the candidate.

It seems as if the politics of the U.S. is leaning too far left, and like an airplane, it needs to be brought back to center balance. I believe this is where moderates will be of significant advantage when balancing out political issues in the U.S.

Let States Decide

Instead of having an entire Country fall under an umbrella of laws, let States decide instead. As an example, gambling and prostitution are legal in certain parts of Nevada. So if you like to gamble and you like prostitutes, then go to Nevada. If you have a problem with it, then don’t go. It’s that simple.

I believe any state should be allowed to legalize anything they want as long as most voters agree, and as long as it does not violate any personal freedoms.

So let’s pretend that Nebraska made a law that only red-headed people could live there. I know it seems silly but pretend. If everyone agrees to that law, then it shall be done. I know what about all the people living there. Where will they go if they aren’t red-headed?

Well, let’s pretend Arizona passed a law to give a living wage to its citizens. A monthly stipend of $2500. Maybe some people from Nebraska would move to Arizona.

Imagine that Maine has a law that there are no property taxes or income taxes. I bet a lot of people would move there.

What if North Carolina passed a law where you are granted 500 acres of land for free, as long as you use it for farming or preservation? Sounds good, right?

I know this may seem complicated, but my point is that people have the right to live where they feel the most at home and comfortable. Humans have a right to live in a State, County, or City that aligns with their values and needs. No law should prevent anyone from living around people or beliefs similar to them in any way.

I always thought it would be a neat idea to create a gated community for introverts. A society that is generally quiet, predictable, and where people know better than to go up to someone who is minding their own business and start bothering them.

The only criteria for living there would be that you would have to be an introvert this way; no one can be discriminated based on their race, religion, sexual orientation, etc.

What Kind Of World Do do You Want?

Many people believe that when you die, you go to heaven, and that is it. Others think that when you die, you cease to exist, and that’s it. I have a third idea. What if your soul is reincarnated into another body after you die, and you have to experience life on earth all over again? What would you change about life on earth after your most recent experience?

This is what you must work on changing now while you are still alive.

The Schooling System

Our schooling system is outdated and needs an upgrade. Most schools don’t teach you how to think, but what to think. Each one of us is a unique individual with a point of view somewhat different than others.

The free expression of thoughts, ideas, and opinions needs to be explored to create a society that will know when it’s time to expand, contract, or idle.

I have heard that many primary schools and universities have become indoctrination centers for youth. That’s a shame to program young people’s minds with beliefs and ideas that are not their own.

If I were to change primary school (K-12th), this is what I would do.

I would leave elementary school as it is (K-5th). Middle/Junior High (6th-8th), I would have young people learn about their innate skills and talents and begin to harness them. High School (9th-12th), I would allow young people to explore career paths by having them go to school half a day and work the other half.

I would even consider changing the graduation grade from 12th grade to 10th grade. This way, they could start college at 16 or work at 16.

Also, I would create a way for young working adults to have a retirement income by age 40. They can still work after that, but at least they will be receiving a source of income if the entire country decides to lockdown for six months again.

The Future is Mobile

If the lockdown taught us anything, you need to learn how to make money on the go. I always advised people to have a side-hustle to keep you going if you ever lose your primary source of income.

One idea I had years ago was mobile businesses. A mobile company is when the proprietor goes to the customer’s house instead of the other way around. I wouldn’t say I like going for oil changes, hair cuts, food, etc. If they can come to me, that would be awesome.

I have seen mobile dog-groomers where they park their truck in the customer’s driveway, and they groom the pet inside. I also thought this would be an excellent idea for hairstylists.

I have a friend who is a mobile mechanic for lawn equipment, tractors, and other small engine machines. He’s come to my house twice to repair my John Deere riding mower. He uses a mini-bus, which is perfect for keeping supplies and taking equipment to his house to repair if need be.

He saved me a lot of time and headaches coming to my house and fixing it right then and then in just a couple of hours.

Also, food trucks are killing it right now. Mobile businesses are the future because they are more efficient and have fewer operating costs than a brick and mortar business.

Moving Forward: Spiritual Battle

In reality, life is brief. That Bentley you’re driving doesn’t make you more unique, and that big house doesn’t mean you are any more valuable than you already are. The quest for advancement on your soul’s journey is to become aware of who you truly are.

The material stuff is excellent; I can appreciate a nice car, I like Range Rover’s, but I know that driving a Range Rover or living in a mansion doesn’t increase my value. My integrity, my honesty, my work ethic, and how I treat myself and others determine my worth, and all these things are spiritual.

The spiritual battle is one that everyone is facing at this moment. The spiritual warfare is within. I would start with forgiveness. Forgiveness is not about letting someone off the hook for their evil deeds; it’s about setting you free from the spiritual consequences of non-forgiveness.

Remember; You become like the person you refuse to forgive.

Some people in the spiritual community have stated that the spiritual battle has already been won on the other side of the veil, and this is why we see so much chaos here.

The moral of this post, stay spiritual, and try not to let the material world take you for a ride to places where you don’t want to go!
