Oh and here is a direct link to the prologue to "How to Start a Revolution" (the previous blog) if you want to save hunting around!-----------   https://asgardia.space/en/satellite/file/22478/#

Figured I might as well attempt the first astrally published work of fiction,  so posted the prologue to a novel series I have been working on for a couple years up on the satellite.  More in the multi-dimensional vain than space based per se but certainly encompasses such.  It began as a channeled work and continued as new questions unfolded in the telling.  It’s a journey across 5 worlds (or different time-lines of the same basic planet) where old family problems are sorted out on global and cataclysmic scale.  Consciousness jumps into different versions of the same body but in very different incarnations and withalways the same opponent (and a few friends) lurking somewhere across the planet!—— Do give a read if such a thing piques your imagination!  If you feel like voting it up I believe it is currently on page 5 of the Contest section (soon to be page 6 I’m sure).  Enjoy!

One of the most interesting things happening as 2018 opens are the increasing official disclosures on UFO’s, unknown metals and the like from official US sources.  None other than the NY Times has led the pack with authorized releases from the defense department and other offices.  This has been preceded by months of dribbling information from NASA on related speculation.  Habitable planets being found, unknown microorganisms discovered on the space station glass exterior, life discovered under the Antarctic ice, suspicious elongated asteroid flying by, the theorized superstructure blocking the output of a distant star- the list is quite long actually.  __________  There is now an orchestrated effort to get the public ready fro some imminent disclosure.  This had been in the works for a long time, 1954 according to some sources, and indeed seems to be the basis for the “predictive programming” that underlies the selection of science fiction presented to the audience (from Star Wars through Star Trek and countless other franchises).  _______  Indeed, such a paradigm changing concept that we are not alone would shatter the reality-set and beliefs of the majority of the population not suitably prepared for such news.  Orson Wells “War of the Worlds” broadcast proved that early on so vast sums needed to be budgeted to “cushion” the shock such disclosure would bring.  ___________  The interesting fact is these “bombshell” announcements from none other than the Pentagon itself has hardly drawn much public attention-even with major mass media coverage.  It’s as if people are so conditioned to the possibilities of other beings interacting with us, either spatially or inter-dimensionally, that they’re not even fazed!  The programming seems to have been effective!  _________  Now I don’t think full disclosure is the governments choice right now.  Their hand is being forced one way or another and they want to maintain control of the narrative so have sped up their slow drip to a steady stream of revelations.  I think this year will be full of surprises in such regard and Asgardia may find itself in an actual representative role sooner than most think!  _______________   I have included a few links to these topics.  Corey Goode and David Wilcox have an interesting angle on this and have a lot out there as well to look into.  _____ https://www.nytimes.com/2017/12/18/insider/secret-pentagon-ufo-program.html ________ https://www.naturalnews.com/2017-12-30-former-pentagon-official-confirms-ufos-proved-beyond-reasonable-doubt.html ___________ https://www.naturalnews.com/2017-12-28-f-18-fighter-plane-captures-stunning-ufo-on-video-government-admits-ufo-research-is-real.html ________  Good series on this controlled disclosure by John Rapport.  Analyze how controlled news sources use “limited hangouts” to slowly break a story the way that government insiders want it revealed. ____ https://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2017/12/22/new-gift-wrapped-ufo-revelations-from-the-pentagon-whats-going-on/ _______ https://jonrappoport.wordpress.com/2017/12/31/current-ufo-disclosures-and-the-incredible-edible-new-york-times/ ______   And for a rather in-depth look at the history of these concepts- http://ascensionenergies.com/2016/10/29/exposing-the-top-secret-treaty-between-the-u-s-and-aliens/ ________ http://ascensionenergies.com/2017/12/29/controlled-disclosure-and-the-awakening-of-the-human-potential/ ______   Let me know your thoughts on these ideas if they pique your interest!

Well enough lurking around outside the airlock!  Might as well come in from the cold!

I first stumbled upon Asgardia the day of their official opening up and signed up right away (number 1043 it looks like). Corresponded with the initial crew for a while and got myself really wrapped around the idea (micro-nations, seasteading and other attempts at independent states).  Indeed some of the early attempts (the Atlantis 2 in the Bahamas was particularly apt) had much inspiration and guts but little on the practical aspects of working through all the legal and political entanglements. Most were just happy enough to sell postage stamps, passports and other curio and as such were usually ignored by the relevant governing authorities, being seen as more of a business venture than any real threat to the status quo.  Because indeed, the concept of a nation on this planet is completely webbed up with the global status quo, mostly from the financial aspect (as all control manifests at some point).  Thiel’s Seasteading project off the coast of Tahiti shows the most promise and we should monitor their progress as it goes.  Could make an interesting co-endeavor with Asgardia at some point.

Politics and systems of control and coercion here on Earth have grown quite stifling for those liberty minded folks who still have not fallen under the hypnotic spell.  The old left-right paradigm and divide-and-conquer tricks become obvious in the glare of open-sourced media and people the world over are fed up with it.  Indeed, why start a space nation if you are going to just dredge up the same failed oppressive games from the muck only to pollute space and beyond with it!  Not a good way to endear yourself to your neighbors (and get out of quarantine finally).  We need to outgrow the childish egos our society is modeled around and mature rather quickly as a race or any expansion beyond our world on our part will be futile.

We cannot solve a problem with the same mindset that created it (Einstein I believe).  One needs to elevate one’s point of view out of the arena to have the full field in view.  With this new perspective, new paradigms are born and hopefully, we regain a bit more of our true humanity in the process.  Systems cannot be repaired from within (though they can be eaten out from the inside).

This is an ancient and cyclic challenge for humanity.  Are we up to the task?  Can we break free from old familiar habits of control?

Asgardia so far has proven a very good virtual incubator of such concepts.  Everyone involved seems to desire a clean break to restart the process where all have equal footing and respect. However the exact way of putting together all the needed elements for a fledgling nation has proven quite a challenge and at each level, new issues need to be dealt with that were not foreseen.

With the launch of its first satellite, Asgardia has brought the concept out of the social media discussion realm and taken things up a notch in the “real” environment.  Small and insignificant it may seem, it is a cornerstone for a whole different way of looking at sovereignty and nationality outside any previous norms.

With the elections under way and things filling in all around I am feeling optimistic that this has sailed beyond the mere “pipe-dream” stage!  Still a long road ahead but the initial steps are most crucial as all the rest follow in their tracks.  Hopefully we can learn to become “good neighbors,”  if we expect other possible neighbors to want to have anything to do with us! Asgardia indeed should aspire to become the ambassadorial coalition of Earth.  So far we have the makings of such and once we have a legal basis for our sovereignty, we will be positioned in the vanguard of any exo-political relations that may unfold in our little neighborhood.  It's a beautiful day!
