Various Updates

With six planets retrograde, it is a time for review and resetting our compasses so that when the opportunity to move forward presents itself, we will be heading the right direction. We can interpret this simple advice on any level that seems pertinent: choices we make in life, information that needs to be reprocessed, dissatisfaction that can only be resolved through serious changes in policy and trajectories.

At the risk of repeating what many have heard from various sources, I might suggest that what has happened on Maui is not going unnoticed; but before saying more, I would like to thank those who donated to my small fundraising. Four boxes of adaptogens arrived on Maui by FedEx last Thursday, and requests for more herbs are pouring in. The situation is not just extremely sad but deeply disturbing. It will not be possible to hide the truth. When people have to choose between their heritage and families and their job security, it is pretty obvious where the loyalties will be strongest.

In meantime, I have committed to sending as much as possible to those who want herbs. This includes, unfortunately, not just formulas but bulk herbs, grinders, packaging supplies, and all kinds of adjunctive ingredients like oils and beeswax for ointments, jars, sterilizing equipment . . . in short, replacements for all that was lost.

There are many projects consuming my time and energy that I feel to mention. The first is a collaboration with someone who is devoted to the work of the late Morrnah Simeona, kahuna la’paau, who played a very important role in my life. I have written about her from time to time, but what I want to share today, partly at the encouragement of a few subscribers who have urged me to tell more personal stories, is an event that took place on the Big Island of Hawaii in the late 70s.

There was a retreat in Punalu’u, the far south of the island. About 175 people attended. Morrnah was, of course, the star. One of the other speakers was Will Kyselka from the Bishop Museum who was the resident expert on Hawaiian astronomy. He gave a talk that ended at 9:00 pm, then we star gazed for a while before heading for observatory at the top of Mauna Kea. There were a lot of cars and we returned quite late at night via Hilo, meaning the ocean was on our left as we returned to Punalu’u. I was driving and Morrnah was in the front seat next to me, two others in the back. We saw a single green beam coming straight down from the sky, quite far out over the ocean and very high. None of us had seen this before. Suddenly, the car jolted, and I heard a screech of metal hitting the pavement. My left rear tire had been slashed like it was cut with a machete. I was down on the rim. No one was injured, but you can imagine what happened when I brought the tire for repair. “Ingrid, how did this happen?” “Well, you see, there was this green beam . . .” “Yeah, yeah, but what did you do to tire?”

Since many of us had been to the observatory, we had a sort of caravan of cars . . . oh, and for the record, my car was blue. No other cars were affected.

I think the point should now be obvious. This technology has been around for decades. I heard it was used during the war in Vietnam. All of this is coming out now, and I wanted to assure those who have been writing me privately, that while I never saw this when I was in Vietnam, I definitely saw it on the Big Island. Moreover, the source was aerial. Obviously, that is all I say with certainty.

The second project is much more time consuming. It involves preparing a book on mold for publication and developing courses on mold remediation, treatments patients can self-administer, and training for interested practitioners. It is a very big project and there are several people helping.

While we feel for the tragedies occurring, it is not just Maui that has suffered, but there have been devastating fires and floods in almost countless places. Some sources say that as many as 100 million Chinese are homeless. Mountains are breaking and falling into towns and rivers in parts of the Himalayas. Frankfurt Airport was flooded. There are terrible earthquakes and hurricanes all over our beloved Planet, and it is time to assess why. In the meantime, mold will become an ever increasing issue so it has been given priority.

We also are considering adding podcasts to the Substack posts and might use mold as test of subscriber interest.

Some of the other projects involve upgrades. Our hosting has deteriorated. There are actually exactly 50 websites that are live and several suffered during migration so this exasperating task is taking up some time and energy. You will see very big improvements soon. In the meantime, if you see errors, please let me know.
