The thing about whatever this is... you know, a premonition, an intuition, a hunch. I *know* there is something going on here, apparently you somehow know something that you don't yet know. With the jabs, you can now put your finger on it. You can state what it is. But otherwise, the intuition or hunch is just an abstract feeling that something is wrong, and personally I can't let that feeling go until I find out what it is.

Today I was looking for more information about it, and I found a picture showing the progression of computers: from enormous bricks the size of your room, to something the size of your wallet today. The next picture shows an oil rig in the past, and then it shows an oil rig today. Nothing changed in our energy department. My feeling is that this is very weird. Obviously it's been controlled, and new inventions discouraged. Obviously it's a money thing. But I still get the feeling that there is *more* to it than that.

In the article about the black goo, Swaruu says that the Black Goo is intelligent, that it has a consciousness, and that it can also be used for nefarious reasons. But petroleum appears to be innocent, simply the blood of the Earth. Which contradicts my feeling that there's something bad about petroleum.

I'm going to check out the links you posted.

Yesterday I assumed that there was no intro thread, but obviously there is, so;

I'm in my thirties, I'm Dutch.
I don't work at the moment but I'm trying to create a business involving survival skills and the Shadow. Shadow is my favorite topic of all, in this day and age where (as a society) we are running away from it at high speed.

I'm following Swaruu and the others pretty much to ensure an open mind, to prevent conformity and complacency, to prevent a one-size-fits-all approach to thinking.
We're all in the Matrix here and it would be nice if as a group we could learn to un-matrix ourselves, and even start something like communities outside of it. I'm hopeful that the future will be something like that, enclaves of free thinkers, sort of like a new revolution.

I don't necessarily want to "leave" Earth or escape to some other planet, yet it would be great if we could shed the falsity about society (my own arrogance included)

Cheers

Edit: can relate to Tecumseh's posts about flat-landers!

If it helps any at all, you can shift timelines even within this life (there are actually a couple of transcripts on that subject here, I haven't read them in detail).
This happened to me. I was the subject of abuse as a kid and watched my parents as they auto-destructed.

In my twenties I was depressed and traumatized. I can tell you this is not fun.
In my late twenties I underwent a personality change that nobody, not even me, expected. I really feel like a higher power caused me to change.

Now in my mid-thirties a lot of the contracts I had with other entities/beings, (for example, co-dependency) are broken, and I'm increasingly free to choose.
Earth is not what it seems - we think it is one thing, or that it is static, but that is not true. There are many parallel realities and parallel lives to be had here.

The contracts you have now may shift, you might even break free from them as you shift your own timeline.
Physical reality does not mean that you cannot shift across dimensions and timelines.

I hope that helps.
