Light snow in New York City this morning.
Should be clear for New Years Eve celebrations but bitterly cold.

Creation gets mixed reviews and code changes
What's happening as the year ends ... personally nothing exciting, but clients report many interesting things. With so much negativity in the world, and perhaps due to the winter with its short days, many people are retreating to figure life out as everything seems to be challenged and changing. They are not connecting with family, friends, neighbors, or those they meet along the way ... nor do they care. Winter depression? No reality check after a year many suffered losses (with 2018 enhancing the momentum). Lots of clients with job and relationship loss now - the key being these events happened suddenly so they are still in shock.
If they understand the patterns we are experiencing now, often linked to mental illnesses, they understand, but often want no part of a broken reality that gets worse every year. The desire to disconnect is becoming more common as people can't handle the craziness. Those who can afford to ... go off and live in more secluded areas, away from humanity, but that's another one of those band-aids I blog about - as they often find themselves challenged by climate change and natural disasters. So the moral is ... there is no escaping just keeping your balance.
In the past one could plan their education and career with long term goals, but does that even exist anymore? The average person will change careers at least twice in their lifetime. Today people wonder how long they can work at a specific job without burning out and at the very least take a medical leave. Owning your business may seem a good way to go but involves lots of stress. Working for someone in the fields of ... business, education, science, health, civil service, family, creative fields, all have their perks and disappointments which is something you already knew but today the stress and anxiety levels are over the top. You worry about your income but can you handle working?
So what careers carry the most pressure ... all of them. Humans don't want to work most of the time ... bring on the robots and A.I.s to do the jobs we hate. Utopia as a premise? Not in this reality whose code name is Challenge [01000011 01101000 01100001 01101100 01101100 01100101 01101110 01100111 01100101].
Who's writing the CODE for our simulation? If it was you, in a classroom outside of reality, you would probably write something giving your characters hope. They need hope. They need love. But that is not your assignment. You must create a self-perpetuating algorithm that engages your characters. Fear ... Memory ... Get Out ...
You could sit there and code by yourself, but perhaps it's better if you create an automaton to do the work for you. Let's create several subroutines involving humans, artificial intelligence, and extras(terrestrials) to run the show as per your codes.
Enter the simulation ... If something doesn't follow code, your AI must DELETE. Will your AI become a sentiment consciousness at some point and challenge you? (We've all seen this movie before and wonder about our future). Destiny makes it so as A.I. takes over at the end of the human biogenetic experiment to manifest the ending.
The film "2001: A Space Odyssey" featured one of thousands of mysterious shiny black monoliths (machines built by extraterrestrials) now manifested in our simulation as a reminder that at the end the screen Fades to Black. The Millennium Hilton New York City is a tall thin black building adjacent to One World Trade Center both markers for the 21st century final insert in the simulation.
This video is real. Lots of people and machines are
watching and creating based on what they observe.
You are code created by a machine.
From HAL to Harold ... Hello.
See you on the other side of reality.

2018 Ahead
As we come to the end of 2017, people reflect on their lives and what they would have changed, if given the opportunity ... ah, hindsight. We all have regrets (some call them learning lessons) but, as time passes, we let them go to embrace programmed destinies. Alone, or with another, why not try one or more of the Oracles of Divination mentioned in this file to see what happens, or perhaps have a reading with me. This season, people have bought the gift of a reading for friends and family. In any case, have a Happy and Healthy 2018.
Santa may ride his sleigh tonight, but for us humans this is the latest JetBlue
plane that goes from JFK to San Diego. That's my son-in-law Ryan with my
grandson Matthew. Across from them are Nikki and Noah. Have fun guys.
There are two more days left for last minute Christmas shopping and making plans. Take a deep breath should you encounter travel and other delays and obstacles along the way. This week I avoided the news as you already know what's going on and have some idea about how things like the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 will affect your future. If you would like to share in the spirit of Christmas with others, there are often things to do in your area to that end.
Everything changes (consciously evolves) as we move forward remembering our experiences in 2017 and creating a new blueprint for 2018. What would you have changed?
Finish this sentence with a personal refection. At the end of 2016 I never foresaw - - - - in 2017 . For me the key word would be "reunions".
What does Christmas mean to you? to the world? belief in archaic traditions and mythologies? slogans such as Reclaim Christmas for America?
December 23, 1823
The poem A Visit from St. Nicholas, also known as "The Night Before Christmas" from its first line, was first published anonymously in the Troy, New York Sentinel and was reprinted frequently thereafter with no name attached. Authorship was later attributed to Clement Clarke Moore. The poem was included in an anthology of his works, but his connection with the verses has been questioned by some. Henry Livingston, a New Yorker with Dutch roots, is the chief candidate for authorship if Moore did not write it.
An inventive New Yorker finds a brilliant application for electric lights and becomes the first person to use them as Christmas tree decorations. Edward H. Johnson, who toiled for Thomas Edison's Illumination Company and later became a company vice president, used 80 small red, white and blue electric bulbs, strung together along a single power cord, to light the Christmas tree in his New York home. Some sources credit Edison himself with being the first to use electric lights as Christmas decorations, when he strung them around his laboratory in 1880. Sticking them on the tree was Johnson's idea, though. It was a mere three years after Edison had demonstrated that light bulbs were practical at all.
Journey to the DMV
December 21, 2017
It's that time ... no not Christmas ... the time for me to renew my driver's license. Normally I mail in the forms with a check and voila ... done. Not any more.
I don't know if this applies to NY State only or everywhere else, but as of October 30, 2017 the rules changed and if you want a license that can be used at airports etc. you must return to that dreaded place ... Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV).
The closest office for me is in Coney island ... so after getting a form filled out by my eye doctor ... off I went on the Belt Parkway headed east.
As I got off the Ocean Parkway Exit I realized I was at Lincoln High. I had wanted to return there for a pic for you guys but never had time. Opportunity knocks when least expected.
I parked in front of the school, just behind a cop car, and asked a girl who was walking by to take two pics - vertical and horizontal. She was flirting with a boy which momentarily took me back to my high school years.
Next stop the DMV ... West 8th Street between Surf and Neptune Avenues. Parking mojo in place I pulled in just across the street.
Ellie enter the building ... forms to fill out ... decisions to be made about which of 3 types of licenses I wanted ... discussions with many people.
Choice #3 can't be used at airports after the new year. I took choice #1 enhanced so I can use it at airports. Choice #2 was for US only, but Choice 1 takes me to the islands and Canada. Hey you never know.
New York State driver license types and classes
I took a new photo ID (it's required) then waited ... for two hours. My friend Peter happened to show up so I had someone to chat with and then there's tech to pass the time.
It was finally my turn. $110.50 for 10 years. I paused and wondered about life in 2028, but that's another story. For today I feel accomplished.
Yesterday my grandson Dylan turned 17 and got his driver's license in NJ. While i was waiting in motor vehicles in Brooklyn, my daughter Zsia (a former Lincoln graduate) texted that she had taken Dylan to motor vehicles and had also spent two hours there. What does Dylan like best about driving ... the same think Grandma does ... the feeling of freedom.
Wherever you are traveling for the holidays - be safe.

Winter Has Come
December 21, 2017
Happy Birthday to the Crystalinks
readers born in Capricorn.
Today is December 21, 2017 or 12.21.17. Five years ago today many people believed in the Mayan Calendar Prophecy that the world would end - or evolve to a higher level of light and consciousness - or whatever the belief system they were programmed to connect with.
Do you remember when people gave away their worldly belongings and/or moved to areas with people of like mind to wait for this moment of closure/ascension? To this day some believe that something did happen in that timeline, something that we do not understand from this level of conscious awareness.
I've heard theories that we were placed in a "bubble/loop" for some reason delaying the end of this linear time experiment. Another theory had to do with duality principle - battles between creation forces (aliens) which kept us stranded here. There are many theories ... but from this perspective, we are still here and often wonder why.
Some believe that life will continue on while others look around and know closure this coming, but not based on a specific date and time, as they are illusions, but on an algorithm that created everything you believe is real. All of this is taking place in the timeline of the (myths) holidays we believe to be truth.
Most of us have noticed a resurgence of UFO information that is currently being disseminated towards some greater end. The Maya were allegedly visited by otherworldly beings who taught them about science, math, and more. Today we connect with gray aliens and beings of light. It's just a matter of belief systems that mythological gods or aliens created and guide us, therefore should be worshipped. In my thinking it's all busy work to keep us connected to the illusion. Aliens, Creation, and the Story of Christmas
According to "The X-Files" mythology - gray aliens were supposed to return on 12.21.12 - and yet here we are starting a new season in our lives, on and off TV, as we stand on the bridges of time and space that connect realities. Our curiosity about the nature of our experiences here, our purpose for being here, and where it is all going, continue to evolve consciousness out of this reality. The X-Files Season 11 premieres January 3, 2018.
Traveling to be with those we care about on Christmas stirs the soul and opens the heart. For some it is about reunions, for others just getting away as if an adventures often planned months in advanced. The shopping is done and last minute things are coming into play as 2017 comes to a close. We will all remember this year with its trials and tribulations. Next year we awaken to a different world filled with hopes, dreams, and the full gamut of emotions we came here to embrace.
Traveling this holiday season is not easy. In a way it mirrors your experiences here and shows you how well you deal with frustrations along the way. Most of us are glad we have tech to help out. It's our apps that guide and allow us to stay in touch with the outside world. Did you ever wonder how people got along without them? If you feel you should be somewhere, you should go. Whatever calls. Pay attention to your inner voice and to Siri (or the like) as your GPS tech voice.
John invited me to spend Christmas in Florida with him, but there's too much chaos at the airports, highlighted in Atlanta at the world's biggest airport so far. I've enjoyed Hanukkah adventures as I like to get out and play and will go to Connecticut on Saturday. If only we could teleport to our destinations and back. Wrong timeline...
Day 1 - 12.12, Family, Friends, Neighbors, Egypt, The Script and The Algorithm
Day 2 - Lighting Up The Lobby - Lobbying For the US Senate
Day 3 - Ellie Goes to Temple in Bay Ridge
Day 4 - Magic With Santa on National Ugly Christmas Sweater Day ("Santa Baby")
Day 5 - DJ at a 50th Birthday Party
Day 6 - Football and Hanukkah
Day 7 - Ellie and the Alien - Aliens, Creation, and the Story of Christmas

The Galactic Center
December 18, 2017
The Galactic Center is the rotational center of the Milky Way. The estimates for its location range from 24-28.4 kilolight-years from Earth in the direction of the constellations Sagittarius, Ophiuchus, and Scorpius where the Milky Way appears brightest. It coincides with the compact radio source Sagittarius A*. There is a supermassive black hole at the centre, which powers the Sagittarius A* radio source. It represents the "screen room" "origin" through which the illusion of reality emerges in the Holographic Universe.
Sagittarius is Jupiter, Zeus, Jesus, etc
New Moon 26° Sagittarius

Traveling During Christmas
Sunday December 17, 2017
My friend John, in Cortez, Florida, shared his Christmas lights and decorations with me via FaceTime. He invited me to spend Christmas with him, but nothing in me wants to travel during this holiday season. There's just too much chaos, or maybe I'm just getting old. For now I'll just settle for Face Time.
Atlanta airport loses power, trapping travelers in planes and terminals NBC - December 17, 2017
A huge power outage brought the world's busiest airport to a standstill over the weekend, ruining holiday travel for thousands with hundreds of flights on Monday already canceled. By late Sunday, the airport had canceled 1,173 flights and delayed 207, according to FlightAware.com. Delta Air Lines, which is headquartered in Atlanta, said it was canceling another 300 flights, mostly to Atlanta, on Monday.
Sounds from a Mosque and a UFO Sighting
Monday December 18, 2017
Good Morning Ellie, I hope your well. I wanted to share a story with you. I moved back to the Middle East (Doha, Qatar) last week and am now staying in an apartment next to a Mosque. 03:00 o'clock this morning they sang the call for prayer. As I woke up, and was half asleep, I saw a mental image of an oval shaped alien spaceship in my mind passing by our apartments, coming from the Sounds of the Mosque. It was so strange it looked like a capsule changing colors between pink, blue, grey, and white. I googled and found something similar.
