Welcome back everybody to Sovereign Heart Frequency podcast. Today we have a very special guest, a dear friend and visionary Manifest, who has really contributed a lot to not just our sweet mountain community of Western North Carolina with his heart opening cacao ceremonies and the Qigong classes he teaches and the uplifting music that he shares, but also he brings these gifts. All over the country. And we are so grateful that we get to receive the offerings that he brings through just, just, By virtue of who he is in our little mountain town here in Asheville, North Carolina. So, welcome. Truth, I, good morning. Is there anything else you want our audience to know about your work in the world? Good morning and thank you for the introduction. I think you touched on all the things that I would, imagine myself to be somewhat involved in. I like to garden also. Walks on the beach, hiking. Yeah, I mean, I, I feel like it's been hard to pigeonhole myself into Just one niche because I do have a lot of interests and more than anything, I I'm kind of here for the universal awakening aspect of. Life at this time. And so as many different niches as I need to run through to help expand my own knowledge base and, and wisdom for how we can even navigate the world that we're in right now. I will spread myself as thin as I need to. Yeah, I, I would like the audience to know that you are probably one of the most dedicated independent researchers that I know. And so whenever I And like, what is going on in the world right now? I don't know, come knock on your door and be like, Truth Eye, what's up with this? And you have not just the current events, but the whole historical context meta analysis of it. So that's definitely, I think, a prominent feature on your resume worth noting. Awesome. And you hold it with heart is what I really feel and appreciate about you truth. I that you have all of this knowledge and you're able to hold it with perspective and with a sense of purpose for this big change. We're going through and hold it and the people around you with love. And so we're so excited to have you on today. And the topic we were wanting to speak with you about today was Hurricane Helene. So as Mariah said, we have all just gone through this trauma experience together in Western North Carolina. And there was, I believe the initial shock of what happened. And now there's people making meaning and having a lot of. Thoughts and trying to figure out how to move forward after this storm, this big event that our community will be, working on for months and years as far as the rebuilding process. And so, Mariah and I thought that Truth Eye, you would be the perfect person to come on to help us start to digest what's happened and figure out a way to hold this whole experience from this heartfelt place so we can move forward as a community that the digestion of this experience can make us stronger and that us talking about that will then serve others outside of this area in their communities and with whatever they might be going through. So we all went through this big storm, this big event. How many weeks ago now? It's like a month ago now. Like 32 days, 33 days. The, the biblical flooding and landsliding and tornadoing hurricane that. It's been said to be, yeah, the worst natural disaster in the United States. Is that right? On some people's lists. Mm-Hmm. Mm-Hmm. Mm-Hmm. And this is a town where, you know, we're in the mountains, so we're close to Asheville, but the county surrounding us towards Tennessee got hit really hard and into the mountains of Tennessee. Got hit really hard as well. And. We've thought of ourselves in this community as it's as being quite protected from things like hurricanes because of our mountains. And so it was a huge shock for all of us. I know for myself, I was actually out of town and I was in Chapel Hill attending and helping facilitate an equine clinic. And I left on Wednesday before the storm, and on Wednesday I heard that a participant that was heading to Chapel Hill from Florida may not come because of the storm, and I was like, what storm? I was not on my radar at all, and I think a lot of that's in part because we've never had to worry about that kind of thing in this area. And so a piece that I've been integrating that's been traumatic for me was that I was away from my family, not able to get in touch with them as this storm hit. And so I certainly had anxiety and was in constant prayer for those two and a half days that I couldn't get in touch. With my, my husband and my daughter and my parents, my parents are in the area as well. So I got back to them on Sunday and everyone is safe and fine. Thank goodness. But yeah, you all were in town. You had a different experience. If you want to just share some of that initially. We were actually up in Delaware at my parents 50th anniversary the weekend before, and we were driving back to Asheville on that Wednesday. And as we were driving, I guess, Wednesday afternoon, I was looking at the radar on the weather channel app or whatever. And I was just noticing that there was heavy rain in Western North Carolina. So we were kind of looking at it like, Oh, we're going to, you know, have to drive through this heavy rain. And then we had also heard something about this hurricane that was coming in. So when we actually arrived Wednesday night, there was already flooding in Biltmore Village. And to my knowledge, the French Broad River was I think it was 19 feet over normal level. And I believe the record was like 21 feet in 1916. So, Then Thursday, we were kind of unpacking and just arriving back into Asheville and we had to somewhat put it together ourselves that there had been this massive rainstorm on Wednesday night and things were already flooding, but the hurricane wasn't even there yet. And so like Thursday, I, I spent some time going, wait, did the hurricane already hit or is the hurricane about to hit? And then when we realized that there was 10 to 20 inches of rain predicted for Thursday night through Friday. It was like, Oh, well, there's, there's a problem here because we're already flooding and there's like an entire new flood about to happen on top of this. So, just the, the dawning realization of what was happening, but I mean, if I had been in town, I feel like I would have been scrambling Wednesday and Thursday to get more supplies and,, hold it down a little more, but it, it, it hit us very late. Just the re, the realization of what was about to happen. Yeah. My stepmom was planning to land in a plane in Asheville to visit us Friday afternoon. And truth. I, you were the first person to kind of plant the seed in my mind that this could be a hurricane Katrina level disaster. And I was just like, it didn't make sense, but because I trust you and I've seen you really orient to things that are happening in the world really accurately as like, okay, I guess I need to call my step mom. So right before I went to bed at like 10 o'clock at night, Thursday night, I was like, Hey, don't get on the plane tomorrow. And she was like, Oh, it'll be fine. well, I don't mind power outages. I'm like, no, no, no. This is like Hurricane Katrina level possible disaster and. And, you know, she, she thought about it and decided not to get on the plane somehow they were, they hadn't even canceled it yet I guess a lot of people were not really oriented to what was coming towards us. Especially not until the very last minute. And so, yeah, you were unfortunately right. And,we spent the whole day. Friday, just watching the hurricane winds blow the trees about as far as you could watch a tree blow before it lays itself down on the ground and luckily our trees held on strong on this specific property, but all around us, just epic old growth, giant trees of all varieties were just laid across the road. Just like a lattice, the road became a lattice of, of trees, tree branches, and some parts of our neighborhood were flattened so much that a forest is no longer a forest, there's just a few standing trees left. So we, we definitely felt the power of it, but, but because all communication went black. That day and the next day, we really, other than huddling around our solar crank radio, didn't have any ability to really know what was going on outside of our, Small little neighborhood. So it was pretty disorienting, shocking, alarming when we started hearing the people calling in from different parts of town, the different flooding, which is like, oh my gosh, we were lucky to be on a hillside that's not close to a big creek or river. And so we didn't. really perceived the flooding until we were able to get off of our mountain several days later after all the chainsaws ran for days and days and days getting the roads cleared. It was kind of like, like concentric circles of experience outside of our own zone. There was, there was the, Looking at the yard and going, okay, there's several trees down in the yard and the power pole came down over here. And then, oh, well, let's see what our neighbors are are up to. And then walking up the street and seeing massive trees down and seeing a driveway watched out like three doors down and going. Oh, wow. This hit actually really hard. And then going out of our neighborhood and onto the road and seeing the first tree down right there and, starting to cut through that one only to find another one right past it and so on and so on. And it was like, Oh, wow, the scale The scale of the experience, I think for days afterward, the farther we went away from home and the more we saw just in the, in the region, it was like the scale began to dawn on us and as the radio host from Marshall said, it was biblical. Yeah. Mm hmm. Yeah, Swannanoa is an area east of Asheville that was hit extremely hard, and it's been really, I've had a lot of grief and reflecting on that I just drove through there for the first time, a week ago I think I'd been avoiding it because my. Ancestry there. My great grandmother was born in Swannanoa in 1907. So she would have been nine in the flood of 1916, which is really interesting. And my great grandfather ran a gas station there and That gas station has been turned into different things over the years. But now there's two walls standing from that gas station. So I'm sure it will be bulldozed at some point. And yeah, the community there is is going through a lot. It's, there is the water, like Swannanoa was really you know, had the impact of the water and then there were the areas that had the impact of the trees from, I think, tornado little tornadoes within neighborhoods. Mm hmm. So I've heard of both fronts. I've heard of nothing official on the tornadoes thing, but the evidence is everywhere. Mm hmm. And seeing these when you get up on top of a mountain. And you look around, you see these mountains that have like, it looks like a giant finger kind of reached down onto a peak and just smushed all the trees in a line going down from the top of the mountain. And there's even right over the ridge from our place, you can see where something, a tornado came down the mountain. Across the valley, then up the mountain on the near side of the valley, then took out the top of the ridge, then seemingly jumped over our neighborhood only to hit back lower down on the road. And you see this everywhere. I saw I was at a friend's house in Swannanoa this past week helping out and she has a, a patch of woods. That right in the middle of it, there's suddenly just a clearing of like 20 trees that all came down in a twisted mess right on themselves. And there's no other path where there were trees and there was no really other trees down on her property. So it was like that one spot. It looked like a tornado had just. come down right there and churn for a minute and then pulled itself back up. So cyclonic, the cyclonic energy was, was it seems like it fractaled into like smaller cyclones. Like the big, the big turning energy of the hurricane, then, became these smaller swirling storms all through the mountains. I heard someone say that he counted 60 peaks that looked like they had been hit by tornadoes he was in a helicopter and he counted 60 peaks. Oh, well, I know something that we have all been part of and aware of. is how this community came together very quickly to support one another. And so I thought we could talk some about that. I know for me, one of the bombs for me of this devastation was listening to this local radio station, Kiss Country 99. 9, and I would listen to it all day and with tears of grief and tears of gratitude, like there would be someone that would call in and say, Hey, I've got. Four guys with chainsaws, here's my cell phone number, call me and I'll be there. There was a woman that called in and asked someone to check on her grandson who is homeless to see if he was okay. And within 30 minutes, someone called in and said they'd seen and talked to her grandson and he was okay. And just the, the outreach outside of this town that came in and then how we all helped each other was really profound. And in truth, I noticed you were doing some organizing of that and you. You kind of, by nature, organize beautiful people and communities. So I don't know if you want to speak about how that was for you at that beginning stage. Well, I think it happened organically at first. I think the, you know, the pull of the needs in practically every neighborhood for miles and miles and miles around You know, the first moments of venturing outside, talking to neighbors. Realizing the scope of what was happening, then going, okay, well, we need to get the road open in case someone is hurt. And then just turning to that function and watching a crew that started with three, become six, become 10, become 15 with a tractor and a Bobcat. And like six or eight chainsaws and nobody standing around just everybody getting after it to then a few days after that actually getting service again getting, you know, to a neighbor Starlink and beginning to check in with online communities and, and, you know, Other folks in Asheville and every time I got to the, to Starlink, there was like 30 messages on my phone from people all over the country. And then, just trying to get to the, through the local checklist of okay, can I talk to this neighborhood captain over here who is going to know about these other dozen people? And then, figuring out who needed what and it was profound, really how quickly people jumped into action. It was striking to see when we finally. made it into Asheville. And there was no cell service in Asheville except for these little hotspots at the fire department or the police station or whatever. But just watching how different neighborhoods were, responding you know, And frankly, I remember sitting at the police station that first day while my wife was trying to get service. So she could call family and and let them know we were okay. And I saw people that were so well dressed for the moment. This was, I guess, day two and I like in town, in the urban environment, there were people that were incredibly well dressed. That we're standing around looking for something to do. And whereas in the country, you had dudes that were, showing up in coveralls and with chainsaws and greasy hands ready to get to work. And so it was striking to me just seeing, these different neighborhoods. And, and I remember wanting to brief the entire region. Of urban and rural dwellers and go, okay, we all need to have baseline skills and baseline awareness of preparedness and how to handle these situations. But yeah, just watching, the community organize itself, watching people come forward and play their best roles. And then create social media channels and networks that were Organizing people and grew to a thousand folks in like a week. And with all these sub channels of different regions and who needs what? And it was profound, really. Yeah, it was striking to me. There's this actual telegram channel that had a different. It's I mean still operating had a different sub channel for each neighborhood a channel for water a channel for chainsaw needs. I mean, incredible. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, and sadly, one of our neighboring communities where my son goes to school was hit. Extremely hard. The river. There is, 10 ft wider on both sides and some places 50 to 100 ft wider. Just it just tore through the town and a lot of the houses were on that river. And, seen videos of buildings just floating away. And so having to go into that community on a regular basis for my child's school, I just watched this whole other social structure build up around the immediate needs of the community. And one of my first ventures into that part of town we saw A caravan of maybe five to ten ATVs with chainsaws and gasoline hitched to their back, just headed up for the hills, headed up to the, the moor. gravel road, remote places going to, I'm assuming check on people who might have been isolated. There,, I know a person who's, who has equipment and time and has just been volunteering every single day for the past 30 days. Move in debris, rebuilding washed out roads. And there's an old Firehouse that is somewhat of a multi purpose use now that has become a central hub in the community and all the different community members are volunteering to give, you know, free body care, free counseling, free food, free clothing, free networking opportunities. So people who have time and energy are. Saying, Hey, I'm available here. And then people who have a lot of needs or had a lot of destruction on their property are connected with those people through a mutual aid message board. And all of this was just grassroots ground up just the people doing it. People who had the skills to provide and the space to provide just made it happen. And now this is where FEMA goes to access community members who need them. So even the greater support that's coming in is kind of piggybacking on these grassroots community support operations that just sprouted organically inspiring to see that I will say to truth. I your your well dressed comment. I'm smiling because My parents, you could say they live in a more well dressed neighborhood. They too had, all the men from the neighborhood with their chainsaws out because their neighborhood had ton, I mean, hundreds of trees, if not thousands of trees down and out there with chainsaws those first few days doing the work themselves. And I'd like to think a lot of them probably. You know, something felt good about being out of their, maybe the role of what they do nine to five during the week and out there with a chainsaw, helping their neighborhood and community. And so the, the support was really just outpouring everywhere that I went, that I saw. Yeah. And, I wanted to ask you Trithi, so I grew up in this area and there's We know there's a lot of beautiful quartz crystal in these mountains. These are the oldest mountains in the world. Asheville is thought to be a very special place, but you have actually done more research on that. Could you say a little about what you've learned about this area in regards to energetics and its place in the world? This, this topic could require its own dedicated episode just to unpack. And I think now I need to revisit this material again with the context of the storm. But so. I'll say this and stepping over into my metaphysician seat and the noticer of patterns. That's, I think the, one of the characteristics that has Facilitated the research project that I began. I think it was actually about maybe end of 2013. I began an exploration into the geomancy and lay lines relative to Western North Carolina. And. Basically, I noticed that downtown Asheville had this obelisk sitting in the middle of downtown, and I had often noticed just a more frequent experience of synchronicity up in that area. I had on some occasions I would go and just sit in that park and just kind of watch nothing and everything all at the same time. And I would notice for example, like spiral. spiral energy, like a, a plastic bag on the sidewalk suddenly gets swept up by a little mini cyclone. So I just noticed that this was an area that was energetic in certain ways. So I got on Google earth and I began to explore drawing lines. I drew a line from the obelisk in downtown Asheville to the Washington monument. And then I drew a line from the obelisk in downtown Asheville to the obelisk in Central Park, which is known as Cleopatra's Needle, even though it did not have anything to do with Cleopatra. And then that led me to begin to realize there were all these obelisks that had been removed from Egypt over the last handful of centuries. And That those obelisks were across Europe in different cities. And so. I began to realize that there was, there was something bigger going on and that Asheville had these mathematical relationships between the distances of one obelisk to another, and that led me to literally put in probably well over a thousand hours. I don't know how long at this point, it might be a couple thousand hours but I, I discovered that this area of Asheville has some very precise relationships to bigger sacred sites, more ancient sacred sites, including Teotihuacan in Mexico City, including Giza and the Giza Plateau as well as the city of Babylon, as well as The city of or which was from the Sumerian culture. And that was the city that Abraham was said to originate from Jerusalem and the Holy land. And so. I came to a conclusion that Asheville had been kind of carefully selected by some wealthy and educated people, and that typically would lead you to study Freemasonry and so called secret societies and things like that, because that's where knowledge has been preserved for centuries and centuries, even going back millennia. The bottom line is that Asheville has its own sort of mini vortex. I mean, even starting with the obelisk in downtown Asheville, which is no longer there. That point had been the central marker for an astronomical calendar built in downtown Asheville using architecture and road construction and building construction as the markers for astronomical lines. For example, on the spring and fall equinox, if one were standing exactly where the obelisk was, one would be able to perceive the sunrise On the equinoxes exactly to the corner of the Jackson building, which is an older it's a tall, thin Gothic building with gargoyles. It's like 12 or 13 stories tall. So it's one of the taller buildings in downtown Asheville. It has long been a financial hub. And apparently in 1929, after the crash, There were a number of people that left from the top of that building. So for whatever reason, somebody built the obelisk and the Jackson building such that you could draw a line from the obelisk to the Northeast corner of the Jackson building. And it would exactly line up with sunrise on The spring and fall equinox. And then the summer solstice is exactly the trajectory of college street, which runs down past the court building and then has a little traffic circle. And exactly. Is the summer solstice marker. And then the winter solstice goes directly over the altar in Mount Zion Baptist church, which is behind the police station over on Eagle street. So, and then finally the, the buildings of city hall and the court building perfectly framed the sunrise on May 1st, which is Beltane or Beltany and. Also on August 11th, which is the perceived meteor shower. And that is about 52 days before and after the summer solstice that the sun rises right in those markers. So point being. There are very few people in Asheville now who have any idea that this is true and that on these dates, if one were to go downtown and stand at the obelisk, one would be able to observe that precision of architecture and design. So, Asheville is kind of like a microcosm because this phenomenon has happened in cities around the US as well as around the world where architecture and design was built to help emphasize and and exalt the natural world and the natural phenomena around us. And also, the people that were building these cities typically were Freemasons who had been taught ancient techniques of building and of geomancy and of using basically the power of like feng shui, but on a, on a macro level, where a building in one city corresponds to a building in another city corresponds to a building in another city or an ancient monument that is hundreds or thousands of miles away. And the design is so precise that these markers are in plain sight. They're just right out in front of us all the time, but literally most people have no idea. So that, that's a little bit of a background of what I, I looked at in regards to Asheville. So I had been Theorizing for the last 10 years, really, that Asheville was a very special place in an energetic way relative to the greater grid of sites, both, you know, modern cities, as well as ancient sites. I literally was Teaching workshops in like 2015 and 2016, in which I was saying all roads lead to Asheville, or I had one topic, I think that I called it Asheville is the key hole. You are the key. And that was a theory based on. My observation that so much intention had gone into the design of Asheville, which corresponded to Washington DC, New York city, London, Rome, Jerusalem, et cetera, et cetera. And I had to believe that all the people that I was meeting in Asheville, who were exceptional people, like Asheville is full of exceptional people. And I felt like we had all been drawn here because Asheville is this potent vortex kind of a place where there is natural energy in the ground. And, and then, humans have built on top of that in a way to mark it and emphasize it. So my theory was that Asheville must be some kind of a, of a keyhole in the matrix where, you, you bring enough conscious activating people into an, an area. And then they would even unconsciously turn the grid on or like amplify the grid. And so I have had this long standing theory that Asheville is a highly relevant point to emanate energy around the, the, the country and around the world. And, and yet it's a little sleepy, you know, over the last few years it has grown in popularity somewhat, but still, we're, we're a small city in the mountains with really not much for hours. You know, Knoxville two hours, Charlotte two hours. We're not, we're, we're a long way from bigger cities. And yet, this sort of background of metaphysical energy. And then, the monumental design on top of it it seems to suggest that there is this role for Asheville in the world on subtle energy levels. And this is of course, well into the woo woo territory just to, to give that disclaimer. But it's, it's the pattern is there that I can show and prove that the astronomical calendar is real and functions. I can show greater context to the map of energetic sites in this local area. And then I can draw, I can show how it relates to larger to a larger context. So. Yeah, it is this point that if you're doing acupuncture on the earth, Asheville is like a master point in the same way that we have these master points on our bodies and some of them are unassuming or unexpected, like, you know, you wouldn't expect a point to have such power. Asheville is kind of like that in a, in a metaphorical level. Wow. That's really fascinating. This might not be for this podcast, but it's begging the question for me to ask of what shifts, because they took the Vance monument down they took the obelisk down and just for our listeners to know so the obelisk that truth I speaking of was honoring the Babylon Vance, who was a former Confederate military officer and that was taken down maybe a few years ago around 2021, yeah, controversy surrounding him being a slave owner. So I'm I also was aware that the obelisk was in balance with the feminine, pool of water that is also in that same area. And then so that we were upsetting that balance of the masculine and feminine by taking down that obelisk. I don't know if you want to talk about that now, but. That question is burning in my mind. Let's touch on it real quick. So the OISS was built in 1897 and it stood 65 feet tall. If you are into metaphysics and numerology and stuff like that, then. There are certain numbers that would jump out and 65 is one of those. And the reason for that is because in a esoteric study and masonry five is considered the microcosm and six is considered the macrocosm. So a five pointed star represents a human being arm, leg, leg, arm, head. And the macrocosm is Metatron's cube, which would be the six pointed star and from Metatron's cube, you can pull out all of the platonic solids. So if you see like an obelisk being 65 feet tall is very intentional, and it's to symbolize the unity of the macrocosm and the microcosm, making it six and five together. The obelisk. Is not, was not a true obelisk in that a true obelisk is cut from one single piece of stone and represents in archetype, it is Osiris's severed phallus. And that comes from the myth of Osiris's brother Set, who was evil basically murdering his brother Osiris in order to marry Isis. So he killed Osiris, Set did, and he killed him. He cut his body into 14 parts and he scattered his body around the earth. And then Isis. went and found all the parts of his body, but she couldn't find his phallus. So she fashioned a phallus from gold. And that is what was used to conceive Horus, the divine child. So the obelisk represents the severed phallus, and thus it does Always, an obelisk always occurs with a reflecting pool. And so you have the stone needle that is essentially carrying the yang current up. And then you have a pool of water that is essentially creating a basin for yin energy. And downtown Asheville the obelisk has occurred with a pool for, it's hard to go all the way back and be able to prove that there was a fountain there. I cannot do that, but I can prove that for decades, there has always been a fountain there and that actually they've rebuilt the fountain, I think maybe five times so that the fountain that is There now, which is basically a big metal plate like it rises about three or four feet off the ground and it's a metal plate and the water pumps out onto the metal plate and then spills off of the edges. That's just the most recent. Incarnation of the fountain. So when? Well, I will say this from my observation of doing the back story of the obelisk as well as deciphering the presence of the astronomical calendar in Asheville, as well as determining that there very significant mathematical relationships of that obelisk to other points in Asheville, as well as other points in other cities. Well, you would have to be a fool to believe that it was merely a confederate monument. And in 2020, following the George Floyd incident basically, the country was in an uproar over history and over slavery and so on. So there was in Asheville, a movement to tear down the obelisk because it was said to basically be a Confederate monument. And my perspective was that was actually a metaphysical tool that was built there. By masons. And actually, if you do your homework, it is very, very likely that a black Mason was involved with the construction of the obelisk. And he was also involved with the construction of many buildings downtown. He was a master mason and seemed to be the bridge between the black community of Asheville and the moneyed Masonic elite class of Asheville. So I would say that, again, They slapped a confederate general's name on it, but it was just like lipstick on a pig. Basically, They built the thing as a, as a Masonic tool, as an energetic tool. And yes, they honored one of their brethren. You know, eon dance was a Mason as well, as well as a, he was a senator of North Carolina and he was a governor of North Carolina, and he had been a Confederate general, and as far as I know, he was a piece of shit. Mm-Hmm. So. Okay. It still was not a confederate monument. It was still an obelisk with all the energetics of an obelisk, and it had merely a confederate general's name on it. My take was, let's rename it, because how, how much indignity does that cast upon that monument? Past culture to rename something and keep it and make it a symbol of advancement and community unity and progress. I started calling it the advance monument. Like we're moving forward. We're advancing as a society and we are integrating the history and all of the trouble from the past, but we're not going to forget our history. Which is a, that's the thing when you tear down statues and you erase history, you forget the lessons that come with that history. So, my opinion was that, if we had put plaques in the plaza that said, hey, Not far from this site was the slave market that happened here. Not far from this site was the original Cherokee sacred site that was built over by the colonists. we gotta keep our history and we gotta spread our history, otherwise people forget and they don't know. And instead it's now been sitting vacant for like two and a half years, apparently still under litigation, and there's no plats that detail any of the history so nobody is any, wiser as a result of like sure we tore down a stone needle like to do people feel better about that. Or are they perhaps going to look deeper and say, huh, since the obelisk came down, we've had several really bad storms in this area. I wonder if that has anything to do with the energetic imbalance that now exists here. We were talking about it the other night, my wife and I We had a tropical storm, Fred, that came in in 2021, and I think it was several months after the obelisk was taken down, and so I just, I think that it's worthy of deeper inquiry around just how bad storms were average wise before or after, of course, it's just speculation to say tearing down a stone obelisk may have, you know upset the energetic balance of the region and, and, and I think there's a decent argument as someone that has studied geomancy as someone that has been in the field, so to speak, and basically used an obelisk as a, as an amplifier of intent and consciousness and meditation. I will say that those obelisks are quite powerful if you know how to use them. And they might be quite powerful, even if we don't know how to use them. And maybe in the background, it was doing something to help anchor the yin's and yang's or the ionic charge, whatever lens you want to look at it through. I would say in my belief, us stone obelisk is a bit like a cloud buster. Where perhaps the presence of an obelisk would break up weather patterns better because that, you know, if you have organite with cloud buster like Wilhelm Reich technology and you build devices, you can affect the weather in a micro on a micro level. If we built an obelisk here in our yard, a 65 foot obelisk, I guarantee we would be able to tell the difference between how the clouds behave and how the weather patterns develop in our little cove. It'd probably take us a couple of years to make enough observations that we could see a pattern, I would, say it would be certain that building something like an obelisk would potentially affect how the microclimates behave. So, you know, it's a stretch to say that the obelisk being gone. allowed a hurricane to enter into the mountainous area where usually it would be broken up by the the mountains themselves. But I don't think it's completely irrelevant. You know, for those of us that are into metaphysics and sort of esoteric knowledge and the esoteric reality, I think it's, very relevant. And but again, still, we can't create a causal. A causal relationship with, you know, the, the little bit of observation and and such that we've done. It's just anecdotal. It's just anecdotal observations, I think. Yeah, but really interesting and sad that so much of the history you just recounted has been kind of lost when, when seemingly it's not. It's it's quite important. And it's I mean, yeah, it certainly piques my curiosity and holds you know, the, the answers to that curiosity, you know, there's something really special about this area that it speaks to that, that when we don't have that history or don't have that curiosity, that's lost as well. So I really appreciate you going through all of that for us. I will say that there are much deeper levels that I'm withholding for now and just to tease that. We can tie in the Vanderbilt family. We can tie in the Biltmore estate. We can tie in a Masonic monument that was built in 1937 in Maggie Valley. We can tie in an underground facility that is down in Balsam Grove that the NSA bought at and owned at one point. We can tie in the Georgia Guidestones. We can tie in the White House. we can tie in all of these things that are, are very, very relevant. When I begin to lay out my sort of deep dive on the geomancy of Asheville, when you get into it, there's a lot of anomalies that are all crystallized into this area and they all form a pattern. So. Perhaps it's worthy of another episode to come on and maybe use the video if we can, and like, I can show you maps because the maps, the maps show it. That would be fun. I'm in. Our listeners can see why I'm Ryan. I always come to you with our curiosities and questions. Well, Mariah, do you want to, response and how there's been more division in our town lately and bringing it up? Yeah. You know, a good way to describe what happened to our community after Hurricane Helene hit was it got turned upside down. And maybe inside out, maybe that's more accurate because when you look at the riverbeds that have the geology from 100, 000 years ago now just showing on the surface and rocks that were lining the riverbed now up in someone's cow pasture. We've kind of been turned inside out and our vulnerable little insides are now just kind of right there raw on the surface. And it's, been my perception that there has been some interest from the outside greater community to exploit some of that. In a strange example of that, I have gotten a hundred fold increase in weird text messages, trying to get me to take some bait or something like really weird text messages. Like, Hey, how are you doing? I haven't seen you while, or I, I lost your number, all these. And I just delete, delete, delete, delete, but I've never, I've never gotten those before. And now I get them. Every single day, and only just since the hurricane hit and I've heard other people explaining getting a lot more people trying to come in and scamming. And that's not really what I want to focus on what I want to what I want to. Focus on is maybe more of the political divide that is capitalizing on the crisis that we're all living through right now. Cause this show is very attuned and oriented to the attempt. Some greater plan to use the good old tried and true divide and conquer strategy. And with, the community in such a crisis and traumatic state there's a lot of high emotions flying around right now. And any, any high emotional state is very easily manipulated and exploited. From my perspective, fortunately, I've been seeing more people choosing to create community and to do healing work to, to try and, Work through the heightened emotion state that they're in. But I know there's a lot of other things happening too. So, I don't know if you've been seeing some of that Truth Eye. Do you want to speak to that from your perspective? So, I think Divide and Conquer is It's always an information war. It is how humans have been observed to be most easily kept in a state of. Well, a lack of unity and order. And so if you've studied information systems and you've studied history, then you can identify that information control is always used to control populations. In the modern era where we have been dealing with corporate media that likes to focus on stories that will benefit their advertisers or suppress stories that will will negatively impact their advertisers. That was 20 years ago. It was like, oh, corporations are buying the media now. It's like, oh well. There's much bigger fish seemingly involved in the control of information, and that's why George Soros bought 200 more radio stations, just a few weeks ago and the FCC, made exceptions to rules in order to make that happen quickly, and so, you have a trend where, you know, we were conditioned to, to believe the media was telling the truth. And then at some point, As the media got more and more consolidated, there were people that were like, Hey, but you're not covering this story over here that would actually contradict a whole bunch of what you've been saying, in your other stories. So the noticing of media coverage has been unfolding for decades. And that, we can, we can say that media coverage tends to benefit a party. And in the response to the storm, we have the same issues, but magnified so intensely because you realize when you have no access to information, you realize how valuable it is. So those first hours in those first days of turning on an emergency radio and listening to NPR or local radio stations who were bringing in live up to date info. It was like, Oh, this is so important. So then you have a conflict. of information that takes place when, as a few days go by and you have locals that are completely cut off and there are other locals that are saying things like, well, in the aftermath of hurricane Katrina the 82nd airborne out of Fort Bragg was there the day after the storm with like 5, 000 troops or something. I don't remember exactly what the specifics were, but it was something like that, there was an immediate and significant response by the state and federal governments. Whereas in this situation, days went by and there was, you know, the water system in Asheville had collapsed and there was no water in apartment buildings throughout the city, full of senior citizens and put some disabled folks that were basically living in their own squalor. And that was because no one had thought ahead and gone, okay, we're going to need to have porta potties on trucks, getting in there day one, we're going to need to have water getting in there day one, we're going to need to have this getting in there day one, we're going to need, you know, if you've got several, you know, military bases right down the road who are capable of deploying anywhere in the world within 24 hours in order to build infrastructure. Like that's what those guys do. And they were not even involved until five days later. And then it was a minimal number. It was, I think 500. And then it was maybe a thousand. It just took days to respond. And meanwhile, you have FEMA a federal agency whose job it is to basically show up in the aftermath of a disaster and, go balls to the wall, rebuilding infrastructure and figuring out how to help as many people as possible on paper. That's their, that's their function as it works out, it's the result of. A giant inefficient web of logistics and subcontractors and bureaucracies that really just weigh the whole thing down. So, you have a juxtaposition of the local neighborhood crews in every neighborhood around getting after it and helping people doing what needs to be done. Then you have publicly funded government crews that show up, have no contacts on the ground, they don't know what they're doing, they are inefficient, or they don't have the resources that are needed in order to help as many people as possible. And so you have a beginning of the official story with the Buncombe County government city of Asheville government, North Carolina government. FEMA and so on and the so called official stories. But then you have the on the ground eyewitness reporting of countless communities in the region and the reports don't line up. And then you have that situation just magnified over days turning into weeks. And then you have these, reports of A community that had begun to compile resources, then FEMA shows up and FEMA wants to take control of the resources and inventory the resources. And then it's like, Okay, well, who gave you the authority to do that? This was the people's energy, the people's money, the people's supplies coming together to help our community members, and some outside authority wants to come in and claim jurisdiction over that, and then people get bent out of shape. Then you have an omission of Those details in any mainstream reporting. And then you have the social media reporting of eyewitness accounts. And, and then, it is possible that you have foreign countries that are manipulating these reports in order to emphasize more chaos. Like there was, there was articles saying that the Russians were manipulating the negative stories out of North Carolina following Helene. So, then you have people that are saying, Oh, well, all the stories. that were saying that FEMA was interfering or obstructing or getting in the way of locals trying to save their neighbors. All of that was Russian disinformation, which to me was definitely not true based on the number of, of people that I talked to who were like, I was at this place. I was hanging with the crew. This is what was happening. I saw it with my own eyes. You have people not in Asheville who are believing the national news and are then saying, Oh, well, it's not true that there have been any mandatory buybacks quote unquote, mandatory buybacks of land that was condemned or whatever, whatever. And that certainly was happening. You have, you know, the state kind of coming in and saying, okay, we're condemning this property and no one is allowed on it. And then locals are pissed because they can't go and go through their, their building or whatever in order to retrieve their belongings. So we have these situations and it's all true. It's sure. The Russians were, were manipulating information. Sure. The locals were dealing with bureaucratic interference from federal and or state agencies. Sure you, did have some, some great examples of centralized authority, government authority making something happen. Like when they finally did get trucks of port a potties into these neighborhoods that needed it, bravo, you know they worked tirelessly to repair the The reservoir system and try to get water back up. So no one can ever prepare for a natural disaster really in the way that you would ideally be so ready for a storm that even if it comes in and wreaks havoc, you can deal with it. That never happens. So there's always going to be conflicts between one account over here and another account over here. The problem is that in the context of information war and, this centralized mainstream media machine that has been proven to to obfuscate to manipulate, to say half half truths like this has happened in countless, countless examples that both left and right political parties would have to agree with because it's been happening on both sides for a long time. But in this current moment of history where things are divided and the divisions have been magnified. Then a storm, a natural disaster happens. And then you have countless citizen journalists that are trying to capture what they what they're seeing and talk to the people on the ground. And then that's being pitted against a more authoritative, centralized account of what's happening. And then, people can choose to believe one thing or believe another thing. And I mean, it's, it's sad, honestly. and I don't, I don't really know the solutions because, if somebody is choosing to believe a narrative that's coming out, because, The a Buncombe County commissioner said it at a press conference and then a journalist for a highly centralized corporate publication publishes that information. Now that's the truth on the public record. Whereas, the people that were on the ground saw things happen, then tried to get their story out via Facebook or X or other social media platforms, and then that becomes rumor that's considered less authoritative because it's not delivered by an official source. When you put it together and you see and hear for yourself what's happening on the ground. And then you, you turn on the radio and you listen to a press conference and they haven't updated the body count in days, even though you know that a community that lost dozens, perhaps at least only in their own community. has, you know, been reeling and dealing with that. It's like that was a big thing over the first few weeks was they're under reporting the bodies. And, and I would say 100 percent that's true. And I, I don't know what it's, it looks like right now with the database of people that are missing still or how they counted bodies they couldn't identify. Because there were people that were swept literally downstream, like dozens or hundreds of miles. And it's just, it creates a situation where the trust is lost because the sheriff keeps saying only so and so only such and such people perished in this County. And yet, if you reach out to a handful of people in a handful of towns in that County and do math. You're, you're way over the count that's being reported. And that, of course, erodes trust. That, of course, makes it incredibly frustrating and keeps the wound open instead of, allowing for closure and allowing for, grieving those that have been lost. We're still trying to figure out who, who was even missing or, who was accounted for. It's, it's, I, I think on that level, total failures of transparency and accounting. So I'd love to ask you this truth. I, and we, this will be my last question for you. Cause well, we're running out of time, but you know, you are someone who seeks out information, like just in what you've explained, right? You've gotten a lot of information from different sources, whether it be the media or people on the ground. And how do you stay in a place of openness and curiosity, because what I know about you is. You are able to hear all of these different perspectives and different truths you, you hear from different media outlets, etc. And I don't experience you as someone who gets fixated on one or goes into fear about a story or believes that you hold the truth above all others. And you're going to then condemn others with a different perspective. How do you do that? How do you walk in the world with this information While holding this kind of centered place and bigger perspective, which is what I feel like you do. Does that make sense? My question? Because I feel like what's happening, what I'm seeing some in our community now is that after kind of the initial shock, now there's this divisive energy of like, how dare these people believe this was geo geoengineered and then fear about maybe this was geoengineered. And what does that mean? And, and going down those emotional streams that gets them in a place. Away from connection and gets them in, away from that connection that we really built into that device of space again. And I really don't see you do that, nor have I ever seen you do that. And I'm just curious how, how you do that when you see all of these things and know about so many things. So I would say that I take everything with a a grain of salt or a handful of salt as, the case may be. I don't really seek to believe anything one way or another. Like on some level I hold an idea in my mind is everything is true and nothing is true. And, and then, as it applies to day to day life, I use probabilities. More than anything I, I liked, it's a combination of looking at information and data that can be verified to the best of my ability, as well as using intuition to feel into the connections of a data stream to another data stream, I think in terms of knowledge and, how we acquire what we consider knowledge. We live in a world that turned to book knowledge and it turned to authoritative knowledge and it omitted intuition. And so I think we do need to have an intuitive sense of things as well as be able to follow sources and cite sources. For me, the weather manipulation stuff, I've looked at that for a very long time. And my conclusion is that it is more of a SIOP than it is a true reason as to why things happen weather wise or climate wise, and the reason that I think that is because I have gone and looked at the publicly available data. on HAARP and on experiments that have been done with HAARP. And basically, the data shows that it is a drop in the bucket that, the most successful things that have been done with HAARP and other Arrays, high energy antenna arrays. I think there was a thing they did where they aimed harp and eight other radio arrays at one spot in the ionosphere and they concentrated the power from all these arrays onto this one spot. And they were able to create a subtle pink glow in the ionosphere. So they were basically able to agitate plasma in the ionosphere to produce a subtle pink glow over a 20 square kilometer spot in the sky. And compare that to An aurora you know, the experience of auroras where the sun puts out an enormous amount of energy and a solar storm or a coronal mass ejection, a CME and that plasma, these giant clouds of plasma that are are hundreds of times the size of the earth. At least those clouds impact the earth and we have, these incredible jaw dropping auroral displays of streaking plasma through the ionosphere and such. Compare the difference between what we were able to produce with our technology and what nature produces with the sun and the earth. And so for me, I've studied the sun and the earth and how that relationship works and how it exists, to the most cutting edge degree that I can, you know, literally staying up to date with like papers coming out from scientists and physicists and all different countries about this topic. and I would just say that. My appreciation for the amount of energy that it actually takes to produce a change on earth is enormous. Enormous and to that, and for the same reason, I also reject many aspects of the man made climate change theories because actually to validate harp and all these sort of black people. Black project weather manipulation technologies, which do exist. They do exist. The patents are there. The, technology has been researched for a very long time. And in my opinion, the success of it is overstated. And, that part is a Sion because it benefits a certain power structure for the people to believe that there are weapons that are so powerful, they can do anything. And to me, that's just, it's not true. the sun and the earth, the natural power of the sun and the earth to affect climate and thus affect weather patterns. It's so complex and it requires so much energy. So if you're gonna argue HAARP, then you're basically validating, man made climate change at the very same time because you're saying that It is possible for humans to produce so much energy that we could affect climate or whatever, think about how much energy it would take to actually change the temperature of the oceans by one degree that. If you remember high school physics, the amount of energy that it takes to boil a pot of water you have to insert so much energy into a system to affect it. And the ocean being warmed by air when only a fraction of the ocean is actually in contact with the air. On a physics level. It makes no sense whatsoever to me that like you would have to have, we'd have to heat the atmosphere to hundreds of degrees and sustain it for a incredibly long time in order. actually heat the entire ocean by a couple of degrees. Like that. I mean, we could do an experiment. How long would you have to hold a bathtub full of water? How high would you have to turn the thermostat in the bathroom? Or how, how long would you have to run a space heater in the bathroom in order to effectively turn the bathtub? to heat the bathtub by one degree and the math on that, you'd probably have to run a space heater for hours in your bathroom just to turn the bathtub by one degree and now imagine that on the planetary scale, to me, that's absurd. So just, you know, sorting out these things, like if you're concerned about weather technology and, heart and this next rad and this, that, and the other. Like go as deep as you can. There's so much publicly available data on those things. If you want to understand why the radar pulses at a certain rate or a certain number of times a day, and people are saying, Oh, well, they post the next rad stations moving from east to west over this amount of time. Okay. But. Who has really gone and studied those technologies in order to understand how they work and why they would actually do it like that? The average internet conspiracy theorist is so shallow with what they actually look at. And they see one thing, they connect it to another, they create a logical fallacy and they run with it. As opposed to going as deep as possible with data and studying every side, if people are saying, Oh, well, the technology is really that powerful. And here's why study that. If, you know, pointing, posting a bunch of patents for things that may or may not even exist, doesn't really mean anything just because a patent exists, doesn't mean that a successful field study was done just because of successful field study was done. Doesn't mean it has been rolled out to, a critical level of use and that it's been extremely successful. If we're gonna say that the corporate media is, limited and or manipulating the information that it presents. And I would say that that's true, because I've been studying it for 25 years, and I could give dozens and dozens, if not hundreds of examples It, you know, fool me once, shame on me, but like, you're not gonna fool me 300 times and still get me to agree that, it's transparent and it is the truth. That's just not how I'm gonna view it. But, Because I know that also we're in the era of internet conspiracies, I'm not going to run and agree or jump on any internet conspiracy just because it's happening and that, because that would be exactly the same thing as, embracing mainstream media as the truth, the truth is always somewhere in between. And it requires a level of discipline and focus and analyzation that most people are just not willing to put out. And it's just much easier to post a weather manipulation, a weather manipulation outcry. On Facebook and then, run with it. And for me, like the final comment I'll make on that is that when I opened my social media accounts on every platform and the vast majority of the posts that I saw. We're all about weather manipulation. I was like, Oh, that's a sigh off. No way. No way. Does the volume of, of posting happen like that? Unless there is a degree of, of information manipulation going on there. Right. Right. Well, I just love talking to you so much. I could definitely talk to you all day, but what I'm hearing and What you're saying, I feel like it's a takeaway for me and for our listeners is curiosity, and curiosity to be truly curious, it requires that we do our own work, which Mariah and I talked about a lot inside to, process fear that's come up or process anger that's come up because to be in curiosity, we've got to be in internal family systems, they call it self energy, which is grounded and centered. And it's then, and I think you really do your work to come from this place. So when things come up on your social media or you're hearing from a particular person or hearing from media, like you're in that centered place and you can be curious. And, and I think it's also a beautiful way to approach others. Like if someone is really, believing a certain theory, being curious with them about how they got there rather than immediately judging them for being wrong, which is some of what I'm seeing happen right now kind of yeah in the conversation post helene and so that's what i'm gonna Take with me of just being curious with myself with what I see and being curious with others How they reach the conclusions that they've reached And that leads to connection rather than Division because I really, I just have such a big prayer right now that the connection that has been created in this community, will really grow roots and will hold because there's so many people that wouldn't have normally connected that did connect during this past month. And my prayers that that will deepen and that will then. Resonate to the rest of the world as we are this special spot here. So So thank you so much for being on. Is there any final words and you want to tell our listeners? Where they can find you if they want to learn more Yeah, sure. So Truthfully, i'm not very active on any social media, at this point. But I, I am available. People could contact me through social media. So I am on Instagram at truth. I manifest musically my wife and I have a project called I star and we are the letter. I star music at I star music also on Instagram and Facebook. our, our website is I Star Vision, the letter i star vision.com. And that is where I sometimes put other stuff like Geo Mancy Qigong. Some of my teaching stuff shows up on that website in addition to being a home for our music. And then my wife and I also have Silver Moon chocolate.com and at Silver Moon Chocolate. And then we've got at chocolate church on Facebook. And so that's, where I am on online. But as I said, I don't really participate too much these days. It's too much for me. I'd rather devote my energy to analyzing what I come across and just sort of listening as opposed to trying to speak or yell above the din. And I would say just in terms of. Information and what's helpful for me is that, as I said, I look at information as probabilities and therefore I don't believe that I know anything I don't believe that I know the truth. I just believe that I think what I am believing is probably true. And I'm open to evidence to, move that viewpoint in any direction. if I think something is probably true and I find information that proves it's definitely not true, I put it down immediately. I don't have any attachment to, my own opinions. And if I find something that proves that it's definitely true, well, still, it's all relative and someone else may not have had that. tidbit of information come to them and therefore they're just not going to believe it's definitely true. And at this point, I just have compassion for people who are all caught up in the information war because we're all doing the best we can. And, and I guess I'll leave this as a little bit of a potential segue to future conversations. And that is that we are humanity at a moment where We will transcend many of the limitations and many of the systems that were placed upon us by, so called higher authorities, and we will end up with completely new paradigms for most topics, and that will likely happen during our lifetimes. And, I'm in my mid forties. So over the next few decades, literally. I think we're going to end up rewriting our understanding of everything. For example, Einsteinian physics is bullshit. And the reason it's bullshit is because it discounts the presence of consciousness in the materium, in the universe. And yet the highest physics that we have has shown that the consciousness of an observer affects the outcome of an experiment. So if we've already proven that consciousness affects the outcome of an experiment. Then consciousness has to be relevant in all of our science and everything, and it's not there in Einsteinian physics. all they do is basically try to study matter and cut matter into smaller and smaller pieces, believing that one day the very smallest piece they find is going to be the god particle. And I mean, this is all an oversimplification. The reality is if consciousness is not in your equations, your equations are wrong. That's sorry. And, and that's the tip of the iceberg for every single piece of, of science and information and knowledge that humanity has, we're going to have to update everything. The more we know ourselves, the more we're going to have to update everything. Yeah, I'm here for it. I'm so here for that. It's going to be incredibly exciting and it's going to lead us generations into the future. It will lead us to a golden age. It will lead us to, being a, a, a race of beings that is here in physical form, but also maintains our metaphysical knowledge and The world, the universe will be our oyster at that point to explore and learn and grow and try things and fail and succeed. And, you know, it's going to be, it's going to be amazing. Well, we will definitely get you back on to talk about that. Is that super excited and resonates deeply in my heart. And I'm so glad to be on this ride with you. Hmm. so much for being here and we'll get you on again. All right. You're so welcome. Thanks so much for having, having me. It's been an honor. Bye everyone. Bye.
