Zen Gardner, Guest Waking Times There appears to be a growing sentiment that we’re on the verge of some kind of significant breakthrough.

Ida Lawrence, Contributor Waking Times An email came in from a friend today with just a “Hi!”, and a note: “I’m traveling, trying to find my way back home to the celestial.” This is a friend I’ve never met in person, but I have met in the heart. We have enjoyed each other’s writing and …

Chris Bourne, Openhand Contributor Waking Times I just came across this report on RT about the alarming Fukushima situation. How the company managing the catastrophe have consistently underestimated the nuclear contamination; how the pacific ocean is likely to be contaminated for eons to come and how the affect on physical health is increasingly disastrous.

Zen Gardner, Guest Waking Times There’s a lot of very interesting information available on this transition we’re going through and with many interpretations, and some great advice on how to manage these vibrational changes.

Belsebuub, Guest Waking Times Enlightenment means different things to different people; most of us have different versions of what it is and how it occurs.
