Communicating with Tree spirits for example, once you can do it,is remarkably easy. But they have to be willing to communicate with you.

How long does it take to become a true Master Mason, starting from a Neophyte? If this was a big UGLE freemasonry forum, I would be sitting back with a beer and popcorn enjoying the show erupt! As it’s not I will let the masons here answer.

To aid me understand your language/framework can you tell me if the following is due to air elementals please?
Years ago when I practiced Karate with the Japan Karate Association, when I reached a few belts in, I began to feel something unusual. Being 27ish stone the sessions killed me. With an understanding sensei in the last half hour or so, when I was wasted, I instinctively did what I now understand were Tai Chi moves, to focus energy. Essentially I was grabbing the energy around me and using it to get through the next few minutes, before repeating. Iirc, it was only 3rd or 4th Dans and above who understood this. I was like yellow belt ish.
Having just watched a Tai Chi movie and seeing the master do as I was doing, it occurred to me, that in your language I may have been aided by air elementals. So is what I think of as drawing in energy from the air around me, to revitalise me, in your language air elementals assisting?
If so, I have been working with them for a very long time unknowingly. And if not, it’s not.

Under what areas is Freemasonry spiritual (iow Qabalah, Astrology, Geomancy, Tarot, Alchemy, etc) -...How long does it take to become a true Master Mason, starting from a Neophyte? Freemasonry sets up a temple that is intended to resonate with the nearest temple in the heavens (solar system). The opening ritual used to work somewhat, but it is decades since I have experienced a proper opening. That seems to be because the tide is going out on most spiritual and social institutions The degree work sometimes is useful but that is much less frequent too. It is easy to become a ritual Master Mason just pay dues and turn up to lodge for a year. The true Master Mason has reached first stage enlightenment with: - control and refinement of the mental body, - resolution of personal karma, - alignment with higher energies, - commitment to apprehended Divine Intent, and - acceptance by inner plane peers. This is rare in Masonry but increasingly common in humanity

The life force is in the air, particularly fresh air in Nature. Many beings live in/from that life force including various elementals. In your case it seems more that the air elementals were watching your physical movements to bring the life force into your body. I have seen some Tai Chi that seemed to me to be crude physical movements to scrape and push life force into the physical body. Just breathing in the life force with visualisation and intent, and preferably right relationship, is much more effective and can be done in any situation - even underwater, as the air is not necessary to breathing prana/chi

I have been thinking hard on this. Indeed my hand movements grasped and concentrated the energy/ force, from which I was able to circulate it around my body. It was only 3rd or 4th Dan and above that seemed to understand this and would converse about it in the dojo. I haven’t, I don’t think, ever tried to do it « just breathing in the life force with visualisation and intent », but maybe I have during my marathons/triathlons/duathlons and adventure racing and training. I need to reflect more on this to see if I can recall any examples.
Now underwater, that would be quite something. Are you able to share any examples of this? Special forces, free divers etc could find it useful. Assuming of course that they are sufficiently spiritually advanced. Which I am guessing would be a prerequisite.

I can draw in the life force while holding my breath. It is just a matter of getting used to dealing with the life force. It is everywhere in the galaxy.

> Are you able to share any examples of this? I can draw in the life force while holding my breath. It is just a matter of getting used to dealing with the life force. It is everywhere in the galaxy. Again thank you Paul. Sometimes for fun I direct my mind to dream about certain things. It often doesn’t work (I normally remember by dreams for 20 min or so), so take this with a pinch of salt. But I found it interesting for reasons below. 1. I decided to dream about this life force. 2. I dreamt a wierd combination of mostly the TV series Secret Army (Belgian line that got downed RAF pilots home in ww2), and a concentration camp (I think). 3. Now the obvious assumption to make is clear, but could easily be meaningless given it was a dream. 4. But, ww2 concentration camps have for decades brought me to tears. 5. I was chatting to a Jewish acquaintance very recently (his father was in Auchwitz) and I told him about how I can feel the pain inside one of the punishment cells (the one they crushed you in), and how I expected if I was ever able to visit I would find that cell very difficult for me. While he doesn’t get how I feel energy, he would like to visit with his son, but doesn’t think he could walk through the gate under those words (work sets you free in German). 6. When I used to swim or do triathlons I had no real fear of being underwater, so this does seem specific to air. 7. Just some morning thoughts.

Oh poop.
I am posting this mainly for spooks, so apologies if it seems a bit cryptic, as I am not going to get into politics here, but bringing esoteric mapping back to real present day stuff.
I really did stop my ww3 prediction works some years ago now, so have a pinch of salt ready. But using Good Judgement Project info updating, having just read a view of a global politician, that I suspected they held, I have an awful feeling that things just got turned up a significant notch, now that it has been publicly stated. (Look at my internet surfing just prior to this post combined with my related thoughts I was mocked for some time back on tt.)
Through the global propaganda, and the wealth of interrelated issues, a key moment has, I think, no I am am confident, has just occurred. Do not underestimate its importance. It could be where the West make a fatal flaw that might take some time to become apparent.
In straightforward real world terms, the anti has just been upped considerably. Esoterically the energy force has been strengthened almost as a matter of enough is enough point of principal.
It would be easy to miss this in the bluster, or to be blind to its significance due to egos. Please don’t make those mistakes. Spooks on all sides, please get your diplomats diploming, and hope that global politicians are wise enough to see what is coming, and how key this precise moment is. Please ensure peace and prosperity.
Hey I think that I have found my key point, that I suspected I could find for years, re the key moment that ultimately leads to ww3. Just didn’t think that it would this easy. I can only hope that through the propaganda and bluster, wise heads prevail.
Please prevail.

Ukraine is the obvious trigger for WW3 - having split the global trading system and the international payments system.

But getting from hope to reality will take a lot of wisdom. 2. Ukraine itself is, in my opinion, a factor, but that is way too general. The precise key point has sadly, in my opinion, now happened, with the path to global war now being blindingly clear. Obviously it may or may not be the only one, and I may be wrong. But Paul, I rarely disagree with you, but if spooks, diplomats and politicians look at Ukraine as being the trigger, they are, sadly I think, missing the key moment. Still there is little I can do about it.

>look at Ukraine as being the trigger, they are, sadly I think, missing the key Would you like to say more? Paul I am happy too, just didn’t want to get into politics on a Masonic forum, but as you ask. I have taken grief for the following views elsewhere… 1. Try to be as objective as possible, uninfluinced by personal beliefs etc. 2. Prior to the war Putin was exceptionally clear that in his opinion, and this should be verifiable by the U.S. (though difficult if true for them to stomach), several times (I could list them, but would have to find them again, but Putin was clear when he detailed them), that the West have broken promise after promise re Russian security. Over decades. It seems clear to me that due to all these broken promises Putin feels genuinely uneasy. Just as you might in Australia if Eg China over decades broken security promises to you. Now there could be good reasons why the West has broken promise after promise, after all times change. But were they explained at the time(s) to Russia? Did Russia understand why? Etc. So we are starting with mistrust. 3. Then (after reading a book called Putins People, a New York Times bestseller, about Putin’s career, I realised that he genuinely thinks that one part of Ukraine is historically the birthplace of Russia (or similar) and unlike other overseas adventures, there really is something there, in his mind, about protecting his homeland. I am not, in any way, saying that all the analysis of where next after Ukraine is wrong, in fact I agree with it, given the record of invasions, just that one part (I forget which offhand) has a special place in his heart for historic patriotic reasons. Now this just provides context. And remember, and I accept the situation is complex and fluid, Ukraine are doing so well, because of: A. Western weapons B. US intelligence eg spy planes flying on Polish border, in essence saying…oh look here, there is a General/ship/thing of strategic importance, if it were me I would be destroying it. Per news reporting in early days. So Putin is actually fighting against US intelligence providing Ukraine with key info. That must rub him up somewhat. 4. Now bearing in mind the above. Consider yesterday. Putin was very clear That in his mind the US since winning the Cold War it seems to think that it a God ordained right to rule and control the world, or similar. It was in connection with sanctions. This was the key pivot moment in my mind. After all God exists in Russia too. The energy in his words suggests to me that a point of ‘enough is enough’ has passed, independent of any global ambitions. This is now about what he sees as being right and wrong. The principle. And this then needs to be folded into Putins understandable ambition to have a key role in the future of this planet as power increasingly shifts from the US to China. As you know I once hoped that the EU could be an effective balance there. 5. For completeness, Putin really has tried to sort Russia out after its fall. I, you, we, may not like how he has done it, but that is irrelevant to this situation. The key is that he genuinely cares for his country and wants to restore it. 6. Now I have tried to explain this is everyday terms. But egos could easily blind people from seeing, and it is easier to passionately focus and divert to other things Putin has done etc, but stay on the message and be as objective as possible. Putin simply no longer trusts the West to keep its word. 7. Esoterically, anyone who can feel energy threads and flows can test all of the above, by feeling the relative changes. 8. Now, with this key moment in mind, extrapolate into the future.. A. In Europe B Globally with China C. Other regional issues And all of the myriad of issues at play there. 9. Sadly I am now even more convinced that the U.S. risks falling into the Thucydides trap, though hopefully it won’t. Bearing in mind that the US has its own domestic problems eg c60% (per the Economist this/last week) of Republicans still believing that Trump won the last election and that it was stolen. 10. But through all this it is my opinion that Putin has reached the ‘enough is enough’ stage. And that was the key point I was looking for. Ignore it at global peril. Don’t just look at Ukraine. Look at how it might affect China, regional powers where Putin has influence, from India through the Middle East to South America. The playbook has just changed, and the road to ww3 might spring up elsewhere, but I am confident will be traceable back to yesterday. Obviously I could be wrong.

Apparently the Russian-speaking eastern regions were given to Ukraine in the 1950s as an administrative convenience.
Later when some of those regions broke free of Ukrainian rule, there was an agreement between Russia and the West that the breakaway regions would have a vote on whether to join Russia. That never happened.
It seems that some in the US are happy to fund a proxy war in Ukraine - without much thought for the consequences.
I expect that Ukraine will give up on the Russian-speaking regions and that a cease fire will be arranged

Not at all.
The global trade system has been split as well as the financial system.
With supply problems from lockdowns and climate change, there will be more economic hardship.
Economic hardship leads to wars. Fat, comfortable people do not want war.

Economic hardship leads to wars. Fat, comfortable people do not want war. Indeed. Now take this a step further. Why does economic hardship lead to war? I suspect you will ultimately come down to human nature. Now relate that to what is currently happening in our world, both within and between nations.

Aside:
Learning point for me. Note I am not trying to justify a failure, just exploring a possibility to help my own growth, based on an issue covered here.
I correctly predicted, against conventional wisdom of the day, a year or so out, Trumps election win. But I got it wrong second time. Simplifying I focused on the energy, and failed second time to adequately feel the silent majority.
As I was reminded writing recent posts above, 60% of Republican voters still believe that Trump won and that the election was stolen (source The Economist). They would no doubt argue I was correct. Which I wasn’t.
But maybe I specifically connected with that Republican energy, which was, and remains, powerful. Ie I lost my objectivity becoming swamped by one energy. Something for me to chew over. Not that I plan to make any more predictions beyond what is already out there, but it is nice to work out precisely where you err.

There was an interesting post from a statistician who watched the votes coming in on the computer system. Biden and Trump were close in the total vote, so with the binomial theorem the incoming stream should have been a mixture of Bs and Ts.
This fellow saw a stream of 1000 votes for Biden with no Trump votes at all in the stream. How did that occur naturally?
The voting machines generally have commercial-in-confidence software. Who knows what it does.
Meanwhile many voters complained that the machines changed their votes on the screen - even when they kept correcting it.

When people are deprived they need someone to blame. Hitler did well politically because Germany was treated so harshly after WW1
