I have observed the same thing. People that become ill are ill for a long time or they get a relapse.
These past few weeks I have also felt really tired, as others wrote. I keep almost falling asleep behind the computer. I have been taking a lot of naps. :)
The winds over here are very strong and cold. It somehow keeps me on my toes the whole time.
Thanks for the session and all the thoughts. I don't think that I understand half of it, but I am trying.
Thank you Laura and crew, for making this interesting session available so quickly.
A lot to ponder on, on the meaning of being prepared, of one's place in the orchestra, and of the orchestra getting in tune with life and reality, of applying knowledge gained - 'providing light for a procession'.

The background to my question is a SOTT article by Laura - http://www.sott.net/article/241810-How-is-the-World-Going-to-End-in-2012:, where she predicts;
"2012 is the End of the Old world and its possibilities and the beginning of an interregnum of open psychopathic rule that I predict will last about 2 years before the horror of the situation sinks in. After that, life will only be possible for those who are prepared to survive in the real New World and to figure that out, you are on your own now."
which brings us to 2014, same as the C's prediction of something big in 2014 (session 20 June 2009).

I've copied a list of many of the questions that have not been directly addressed or people have shared and/or expanded upon thus far. If some of them were addressed my apologies for any redundancy.
My thoughts are of the following questions.
Is the gathering of the fellowship to commence soon (pooling of resources)? Getting our ducks in a row (physical/mental/spiritual), creating our tribes, grouping(s).
A question I have been having for myself in my own situation is: You have all this information, this knowledge (that I am so blessed by the group, you who've share it) and, what are you (I, myself individually) DOing with it? And these days I'm actually helping and pooling with people immediately at hand to the best of my ability, discussing and preparing to be able to fly or burrow down at the same time. While at the same time stepping away from being such a deathaphobic.
Are the 'badguys' moreso aware of what is to come than the information the group has pooled together and are more prepared for what is in store for humanity? The idea being they have a pooled collection of documented history, with the actual places and times in the past history of civilization(s).

Having recovered recently from Pneumonia and having two near death experiences associated with it, it dawned on me that all I've done to "prepare" had been all 3D thinking, based on fear. Walked out of the pantry one day thinking this energy spent in acquiring all this food is worthless. Knowing now that what matters is that every part of my being on every level must be aligned to STO, even though I know we are all STS here, but for future, so that we can graduate to 4D and be STO. In the parable the Virgins made a choice, not to fill their lamps, some did fill the lamps. In agreement that we need to be aware and in so being we also need to make choices that will matter for us, to have a future. With ease I could have slipped away, right out of this body. For weeks now I've pondered if I'd be prepared to go to 4D STO. Action and work are important right up until the end, yes as others have commented here in these post it is surely knowledge, and work are something that has to be decided within each individual, something that can not be given by another. Remembering what the C's said once about if we did not graduate this time that we'd be like cavemen looking out on a red smoke filled sky. What would a few cans of green beans serve me in such an environment? So perhaps being "prepared' is aligning our selves to STO.

My mind goes in that direction as well... If it is knowledge application, there's no recipe for all, as it depends on who you are and what you can see, so it depends a lot in what we do to apply this knowledge and that will depend a lot in our particular circumstances, OSIT Something like "the cards are given" and knowledge application will be to know what to do with them...
Of course there are some guidelines as Laura and others mentioned, like The Work, which means networking, observing one's self, gathering (AND applying) knowledge of our own reality and where we are standing as parts of the whole... etc..
I also thought about the connection of Diet and EE to the oil, but I think there's much more to it... Maybe it means to be prepared in a lot of senses, so we have to look to different aspects, physical, psychological and spiritual. Which is again... THE WORK...
Another thing that came to my mind is what Martha Stout says about trauma... That we are more likely to suffer trauma or shock when are we exposed to events which we don't expect or which think that can't be possible, because it gets in complete conflict with our worldview.... Soooo, the more we know about ourselves, the world and its connection to the cosmos, and what can happen (being open to different possibilities)... the more we can see and understand, the more we will be 'protected' by the "light of this knowledge", that will make us less likely to be in shock and, therefore, to act consciously in whatever conditions we might be in, i.e. to be prepared
Just some thoughts, FWIW
Thanks a lot for the session and for posting it so fast!
I've also been thinking a lot of preparedness lately, wondering about what my actions should be considering the times we're living in...
Very interesting comments as well... a lot to think on...
Thanks for the session.
In context on the metaphor about the virgins and the expression the 5d city on the hill i was thinking about this:
This is from Wikipedia:
City upon a Hill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_upon_a_Hill
"A Shining City on a Hill". Reagan's impromptu concession speech at the 1976 Republican National Convention has been called a "defining moment of the Reagan Revolution."
A City upon a Hill is a phrase from the parable of Salt and Light in Jesus' Sermon on the Mount. In Matthew 5:14, he tells his listeners, "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden." It has become popular with American politicians. The term is also influenced by Plato's Republic and the concept of the "good city" - a city-state governed by philosopher kings.
Now here is some text from that gospel of Matthew 5:13-16
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under foot of men.
14 Ye are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid.
15 Neither do [men] light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the stand; and it shineth unto all that are in the house.
16 Even so let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.
The light from the lamps of vigins. The oil is knowledge.To be prepared could mean to be prepared with the right knowledge so it can last through the " dark" . You can offer and "sell" knowledge but somebody must open the eyes and ears and heart to see, hear and feel what is true knowledge and then " buy " it . Especially today when everithing is full with all that false science.
I really don t have any specific idea. This is just a clue. The light from the lamps of the virgins and this bible text. 5D may also means the 5-th Density which is the recycle density. 5D City on the hill. Still no specific idea. English is not my firs Language so it’s more difficult for me to express some my idea. I don’t know if I’m on the right track. Just some of my thoughts that come to my mind while I was reading last session and discussion

I found that concept of Pronoia very interesting Dugdeep.
Back in 1997, I had some strange experiences diagnosed as “drug-induced psychosis” and ended up spending a couple of months in a psych ward.
I had paranoid feelings, e.g. that the French were after me, but also what I think I could be called “pronoic” feelings, such as feeling that two people sitting on a seat outside the window were presently engaged in helping me, or a man walking down the other side of the street, or just standing still nearby, was "on my side" and some kind of help or sympathetic exchange was taking place. Sometimes the pronoic feelings seemed to be justified by specific actual events, e.g. a cryptic comment made to me by a passerby, or a poster put up on a street corner in a city I was visiting with a message intended just for me.
It was a very strange time, with a mixture of apocalyptic feelings, and a sense of elation, as if one were 8 feet tall; and a sense of “liberation”, as if one had realized that something like language itself was the root of human error.

Whilst re-reading part of Comets and the Horns of Moses, I came across this quote from Heraclitus:
‘Much learning does not teach understanding; … this one thing is wisdom, to understand thought, as that which guides the world everywhere.’
Followed by comments of Laura:
‘… possibly a multi-layered remark. … man and nature do not attract what they want, but what they are; the souls attracts what it harbors in secret.’
This is in line with Windmill Knight’s post, paraphrasing,
These are my thoughts on ‘being prepared’, of attaining the correct attitude of mind for whatever the future may bring.

And of the idea of attaining the correct attitude of mind – personal moral effort and abiding by dignity and virtue, fundamental sincerity and honesty, and of standing up for what’s right. As in asjeph 21’s post:

Laura said:
Comforting to know the playing field is being leveled. I also take that to mean at some deeper level, the intensification of our weather chaos simply reflects intensification of higher density conflict. And in a strange way, it lessen my anxiety towards these happenings. It's a good fight going on, and I ought to conduct myself in a useful manner.
