What are you doing
for lunch today?

How much fun would it be if we could teleport and meet for lunch on this sunny day in the city?

If you were the pope ... these would be your plans for lunch ... hanging out with the last pope and shooting the breeze. Have fun boys ... the best laid plans ...

New pope, old pope meet for lunch   CNN - March 23, 2013
Pope Francis is having lunch Saturday with his predecessor, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, in what may be an encounter unprecedented in Church history. Since a new pope usually takes the reins only following the death of his predecessor, this is a rare occurrence.

Today is 3.13.13

Is this the day they elect a new pope?

Since I blogged about the return of vinyl records, I keep reading professional musicians.

Today's song in my head ...

It's all about relationships and honesty. Nothing ever works without them.

Eye on the Vatican

Here's to the "All Seeing Eye" and what it means in the world this week.


    "Forget your troubles come on get happy
    You better chase all you cares away
    Shout hallelujah
    Come on get happy
    Get ready for the judgment day."

I'm not sure why that song echoes in my mind. It was sung by Judy Garland after she came back from Oz!

"Forget Kansas Toto ... There's no place like Rome.

There's no place like Rome. There's no place like Rome."


And now my children, as you read about the continuing adventures of the "crown" and the staff ... look beyond .... In the seven years since the last Papal Conclave, everything has changed in the consciousness hologram. Judy's rainbow has gone gay, and the church is not cool about it. The wicked witch is now on anti-depressants and getting help from Dr. Phil. Members of the church use cell phones and basically no one can be trusted.

The Eye and the Motto

Change dictates power today. It's all going somewhere ... maybe to meet the real wizard!! Reality is myth, math, metaphor, with a sprinkle of magic for those who believe. We are moving from black and white and color to the true reality ... and you know what that means? ... You don't remember? Black and white is the dream. Color is physical reality. And then there is the true reality where all is light. Sleep well my children ... you are about to wake up in the blink of an "eye".    ~ Hermes




Ellie in Oz (dreamtime) Monday night with the wiZard.

    Everything faded to black as Ellie woke up with a start. She looked over at the clock as if expecting to see nothing at all in the darkness, but there it was ... 11:33.

    Then I showed her "11:33:38" as if football signals for the next play ... Hut ... Hut ... Hut. She found herself standing behind the last row of an outdoor sports stadium on a sunny day. The grass was green and plush as a man from the ground crew slowly and meticulously painted the fibonacci pattern on the ground ... counterclockwise ... and she understood.

Now ... as you sit there ... ... make a fist. Ah ... there you see the same Fibonacci spiral ... in correct proportion. The hand (of God) was quicker than the eye ... until now.    ~ Z




John 11:33-38 - King James Version

    33. When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.

    34. "Where have you laid him?" he asked. "Come and see, Lord," they replied.

    35. Jesus wept.

    36. Then the Jews said, "See how he loved him!"

    37. But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?"

    Jesus Raises Lazarus From the Dead

    38. Jesus, once more deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.


There was a time, not long ago,
There came to pass, there was a river,
And at the river stood the tree.
Below the tree were two stones.

Your Soul came to rest beside the Tree.
It saw the Magic White Stone,
The other as yet unseen.

And you were told, that you were Chosen.
Now you must take your stone,
and find your destiny.

Use the powers of your stone to guide you,
And protect you until we are joined again.

It's all in the script


This image has so many metaphors.


Holidays stir the souls ... connecting them with other timelines in which they were persecuted by something called religion - false gods - the truth about the hologram steeped in secrecy and shrouded in mystery and fear. Over at the Vatican today there is no date for the start of the papal conclave. Not all the guys have showed up. Don't expect anything until Mercury goes direct and it may have a few surprises. With society on the brink of change, and information easily accessible with the latest technologies, how is the "church program" going to maintain its facade? Who will be the cardinal to set things in motion? Fear about leaks to the public has hindered the Cardinal's connection with the press ... but someone will slip up. Can a bunch of old guys, many with issues and outdated, often hypocritical values, decide the fate of billions of people? It's all in the script - don't get upset as the end of ACT III approaches.

6 Strange Facts About Choosing the Next Pope   Live Science - March 7, 2013
With Pope Benedict XVI officially pope emeritus, the Vatican on media lockdown, and the cardinals gathered in Rome, the mysterious process by which the next pope gets chosen is set to start. Like the Catholic Church itself, the process of choosing a new pope is a blend of modernity and medieval ritual. From bug searches to red shoes, here are six strange facts about the process of choosing the next pope. The conclave, which means "with a key" in Latin, got its start during the tumultuous 13th century, when the Catholic Church spent two separate periods of a few years without a pope. Fed up, in 1243 the people of Rome locked up the cardinals until they decided on the successor, according to the Rev. Thomas Reese, the director of the religion and public policy program at Georgetown University. In 1271, people tore the roof off of the building where the cardinals were meeting and put them on a bread-and-water diet, hoping the discomfort would hasten the decision. Prior to that, political leaders often chose the pope.

Take 2: Castel Gandolfo near Rome: We see the Pope Emeritus seated in front of a television, his focus fixated on "the program". The camera zooms in on the title The Bible. Holding the remote control, he pauses the action, then utters, "Now it all makes sense. I know why I had to step down. May God save us all." Tears well up in his eyes. He makes the "sign of the cross". You decide what happens next.


It's about time ...

Since the pope announced his resignation - lightning struck St. Peter's Basilica - an earthquake shook Rome - a meteor fell from the sky missing Rome and landing in Russia - an Earthquake Struck Castel Gandolfo, Pope Emeritus' Home just days after he arrived.
