5 Cancer Facts that Conventional Medicine Wants You to Believe are Myths.
Dave Mihalovic, Prevent Disease
Waking Times
Waking Times
According to the conventional wisdom of mainstream medicine, the world’s leading health practitioners in alternative, complementary and integrative medicine have it all wrong and are misinforming millions in practice and on the internet with a barrage of myths and misconceptions they claim are causing more harm to cancer patients. Could this initiative to sway opinion by leading cancer authorities possibly, just possibly be related to the revolution that is happening around the world–highlighting the dangers and ineffectiveness of toxic chemotherapy and radiation, bringing cancer cures such as cannabis to the forefront, or the emerging mass markets now creating awareness on the reality of our food and the consequences of the cancer industry itself?
FACT #1 – The Rise In All Types of Cancers Are Due To Our Modern Society Diets, Lifestyles and Environment
Why The Cancer Industry Claims This Is a Myth
The claim is that our genes are responsible, combined with the fact that people are living long enough now to develop cancer. It’s because of our success in tackling infectious diseases and malnutrition that we now get cancer. It’s perfectly normal for DNA damage in our cells to build up as we age, and such damage can lead to cancer developing. Cancer has existed as long as humans have.
The Reality
The only reason that people around the world today believe that our ancestors did not live past 100 years is because the official data has been sparse. There are very few records that show (officially) the age of our ancestors before then 18th century, but there is a reasonable amount of evidence suggesting there were many people living hundreds of years in prehistory and beyond.
In all the skeletons collected in the history of paleoanthropology, scientists have only been able to identify a mere 200 possible cancer sightings dating to prehistoric times, and these identifications are far from certain. Despite the numbers, when you look at the remains, it seems to indicate that malignancies were a “striking rarity” in ancient times, but that evidence is hardly conclusive. We just don’t know for sure, so to use any type of argument that cancer existed or did not exist to any extent in prehistory involves making a great deal of assumptions.
So let’s just focus on what has transpired in the last century alone.
According to the U.S. National Center for Health Statistics, Vital Statistics of the United States, from the early 1900s alone up to an including 2011, there was a greater than 3 fold increase in cancer death rates.

According to a 2013 featured report compiled by the American Cancer Society and other government and cancer advocacy groups, progress has been made in the “war on cancer.” But what kind of progress? Declining mortality rates are not due to decreases in incidence. More people are getting cancer, but they’re staying alive longer. What the cancer industry does not point out is that the trends clearly show that we haven’t eliminated cancer to any extent, but we have managed to be able to diagnose it and treat it and thus profit from the actual disease itself.
People globally are living longer but chronic debilitating conditions are becoming more prevalent.
Diagnosis and treatment are the money makers in this industry. Actual prevention is not. So when it comes to prevention, conventional medicine has stuck its head in the sand.
Overall, cancer deaths began dropping in the 1990’s, with death rates declining by 1.8 percent for men and 1.4 percent for women between the years 2000-2009, according to the featured report. Children’s death rates from cancer are also declining at a pace of 1.8 percent per year, although incidence is still rising by about 0.5 percent annually.
Other cancers are also still on the rise though, including liver and pancreatic cancer and melanoma (among men).
A 2008 study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Science demonstrated how nutrition alone can have a tremendous impact not only on prevention, but even on the treatment of cancer once you’ve been diagnosed.
This type of information is never emphasized by the medical community because they do not believe cancer can be treated without eithercutting, poisoning or burning cancerous tumors.
FACT #2 – Super-foods and Herbs Can Prevent Cancer
Why The Cancer Industry Claims This Is a Myth
The claim is that specific fruits and vegetables you choose don’t really matter. There’s no such thing as a ‘super-food’ or medicinally powerful herb and any assertion has no scientific basis.
The Reality
This one is just embarrassing for them. While there is not one super-food or herb that may cure all cancers, to suggest that super-foods don’t exist or that herbs are not medicinally powerful is reaching deep in the pits of ignorance. In fact, there is so much evidence that super-foods exist and have anti-cancer properties, that any claims suggesting the opposite are a good measure of where the credibility lies among many of these industry quacks that make such preposterous statements.

In fact, there is so much evidence that super-foods exist and have anti-cancer properties, that any claims suggesting the opposite are a good measure of where the credibility lies among many of these industry quacks that make such preposterous statements.
As of the date of this article, The American Cancer Society (ACS) appears to have removed references to “super foods” or “super-foods” off of their website. Yet, several authors have written extensively about previous recommendations of the ACS, specifically regarding the potential of super-foods to prevent cancer. Northridge Hospital Medical Center lists several super foods using the ACS as a source. Calorielab.com has posted a super food infographic also using ACS as a source. But information on super-foods on the ACS website does not appear to exist.
Cancer Research UK also discredits and discourages the use of super-foods On this page it states “you shouldn’t rely on so-called super-foods to reduce the risk of cancer,” and that super-foods “are unlikely to give you added health benefits over and above what you would get from eating a varied and healthy diet.”
One irritating problem that confuses the public is that most dietitians have no foundation of practical knowledge in nutrition. They propagate mainstream opinion on the validity of the food pyramid–that bread, cereal and grains should be the mainstay of our diets and that fruits and vegetables are all equal. Most dietitians I know don’t use the term super-food because they’re not taught what super-foods are in school. The only thing they are taught is that “super-foods” are non-medical terms popularized in the media to promote unsupported health-promoting properties in foods.
A super-food can be summed up as any multi-tasking food with higher than average concentrations of disease-fighting nutrients, which are usually in abundance among the antioxidant and phytonutrient rich profiles. Some suggest they are also low in calories but that does not always apply to all super-foods
Some super-foods like blueberries just stand out above the rest. Out of Over 400 Compounds Analyzed, Red Grapes and Blueberries Are Tops In Boosting Immunity.
Even WebMD.com, a very pro mainstream medical website lists 10 Everday Super Foods. Here they list foods such as broccoli, berries, quinoa, beans, nuts, eggs and others which few can den are very nutrient dense foods with anti-cancer properties.
It’s not necessary, however, to spend any large sums of money for heavily promoted super-foods such as noni, acai, mangosteen and other juices in an attempt to prevent cancer. The top six foodswith the highest antioxidant values on the ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) scale are cheaper and more readily available than the more expensive alternatives and they all are proven to prevent cancer. They include cloves, sumac, cinnamon, sorghum, oregano and turmeric.
For example extracts of black, red, and white sorghums had strong antiproliferative activity against human cancer cells.
Studies on animals with lung and skin cancers show that eugenol in cloves can stop cancer cells from multiplying. Clove oil extract was found in one study to have maximal cytotoxic activity on cancer cells.
In fact there are 17 herbs and spices which in their own right are considered super-foods, and have been scientifically proven to prevent and treat cancer.
Cannabis is one of the most powerful healing plants in the world and itmakes cancer essentially disappear. Cancer societies would certainly like cannabis to disappear because there is so much evidence that it prevents cancer. There are dozens of studies which prove cannabis cures cancer. A quick search on Pubmed for “cannabinoid” will yield almost 18,000 results.
The reason cancer societies are now turning their heads to the power of super-foods and herbs is because they work. So they must try and sway opinion in an attempt to convince millions who are now converting back to nature to prevent and cure disease.
FACT #3 – Acidic Diets Cause Cancer
Why The Cancer Industry Claims This Is a Myth
This is biological nonsense according to the cancer industry. The pH of the blood is tightly regulated by the kidneys within a very narrow and perfectly healthy range. It can’t be changed for any meaningful amount of time by what you eat. There’s no evidence to prove that diet can manipulate whole body pH, or that it has an impact on cancer.
The Reality
Part of the problem with this notion is that there has been a lot of misinformation spread around by so-called health gurus in trade shows attempting to convince people that you can make dramatic shifts in the pH of your body through foods and alkaline water. The truth is, you can’t make huge shifts in blood alkalinity or acidity, but you can small shifts that are significant enough to reverse cancer.
The pH of your blood is tightly regulated by a complex system of buffers that are continuously at work to maintain a range of 7.3 to 7.41, which is slightly more alkaline than pure water.
If the pH of your blood falls below 7.3, the result is a condition called acidosis, a state that leads to central nervous system depression. Severe acidosis – where blood pH falls below 7.00 – can lead to a coma and even death. If the pH of your blood rises above 7.45, the result is alkalosis.
The bottom line is that if you’re breathing and going about your daily activities, your body is doing an adequate job of keeping your blood pH somewhere between 7.3 to 7.41, and the foods that you are eating are not causing any wild deviations of your blood pH. However keeping your body closer to an alkaline state by even a few points up .05 can make a significant difference in how well cancer grows or suppresses. Cancer cells can’t live in an alkaline environment.
The reason acidosis is more common in our society is mostly due to the typical American diet, which is far too high in acid-producing animal products like meat, and dairy, and far too low in alkaline-producing foods like fresh vegetables. Additionally, we eat acid-producing processed foods like white flour and sugar and drink acid-producing beverages like coffee and soft drinks. We use too many drugs, which are acid-forming; and we use artificial chemical sweeteners like NutraSweet, Equal, or aspartame, which are extremely acid-forming. One of the best things we can do to correct an overly-acid body is to clean up the diet and lifestyle.
Dr. A. Keith Brewer explained that in alkaline environments and high pH condition, the acid toxins of the cancer cell are neutralized and rendered nontoxic. Acidic toxins, and not the tumor lump per se, is what brings about the death of the host. In the high pH condition, the life of the cancer cell is short. The dead cancer cells are readily absorbed by the system and eliminated. “I am convinced that it is food that causes cancer, but it is the food we don’t eat and not the food we do eat.”
his condition forces the body to borrow minerals–including calcium, sodium, potassium and magnesium–from vital organs and bones to buffer (neutralize) the acid and safely remove it from the body. Once a person is diagnosed with cancer, the most effective way of reversing the disease is to move towards an alkaline diet and shift blood pH towards the 7.41 range. This is accomplished most effectively with raw fruits and vegetables and daily greens which maximize phytonutrients and enhance the immune system’s potential to reverse cancer. No, the body will not dramatically shift blood pH, but it doesn’t need to for cancer cells to die. Even a small shift will reverse cancer and prevent the body from borrowing minerals from organs and bones to compensate for a nutritionally deficient diet. That’s where alkalizing agents come in.

TI have seen stage IV cancer patients with tumors the size of footballs recover using alkalizing agents. It is beyond the scope of this article to explain how alkalizing agents and pH therapy can eliminate cancer, however if you seek the assistance of any Naturopathic Physician well-versed in cancer treatment, the protocols are fairly common although inconsistent.
The bottom line is that the body can achieve the metabolic accomplishment of keeping blood pH towards the alkaline spectrum where cancer will not proliferate. The immune system can then thrive and signal recovery which is facilitated through nutritional mechanisms and alkalizing agents to maximize recovery and make treatments such as chemotherapy, radiation or surgery completely unnecessary.
FACT #4 – Sugar Feeds Cancer
Why The Cancer Industry Claims This Is a Myth
They claim there is no evidence that cancer cells use glucose and produce energy in a different way from healthy cells. The “sugar feeds cancer” myth distorts sensible dietary advice which must be based on nutritional and scientific fact.
The Reality
Understanding cancer cannot result from the view on a single cancer event, but must consider the combined action of all cellular triggers in a given cellular background. There is little doubt in the scientific community that the high rate of carbohydrate ingestion contributes to various metabolic diseases, including the development of aggressive cancer.
Understanding cancer cannot result from the view on a single cancer event, but must consider the combined action of all cellular triggers in a given cellular background. There is little doubt in the scientific community that the high rate of carbohydrate ingestion contributes to various metabolic diseases, including the development of aggressive cancer.
The medical establishment may be missing the connection between sugar and its role in tumorgenesis Consider the million-dollar positive emission tomography device, or PET scan, regarded as one of the ultimate cancer-detection tools. PET scans use radioactively labeled glucose to detect sugar-hungry tumor cells. PET scans are used to plot the progress of cancer patients and to assess whether present protocols are effective.
Domestic animals (e.g. cats and dogs) which usually consume western diets with a comparatively high glycemic index, frequently suffer from aggressive cancer, whereas carnivore animals and herbivore animals do have a low rate of metastasizing cancer and rarely die from this disease. Both carnivores and herbivores predominantly live from proteins and fat/oil. Although herbivores ingest large amounts of complex carbohydrates (cellulose and other fibres), these are fermented to fatty acids by bacteria within the gastrointestinal tract and therefore exhibit an extremely low glycemic index. Limited release or even absence of glucose during digestion may explain the low rates of cancer-caused mortality in herbivore and carnivore animals.
A four-year study at the National Institute of Public Health and Environmental Protection in the Netherlands compared 111 biliary tract cancer patients with 480 controls. Cancer risk associated with the intake of sugars, independent of other energy sources, more than doubled for the cancer patients. Furthermore, an epidemiological study in 21 modern countries that keep track of morbidity and mortality (Europe, North America, Japan and others) revealed that sugar intake is a strong risk factor that contributes to higher breast cancer rates, particularly in older women.
In Europe, the “sugar feeds cancer” concept is so well accepted that oncologists, or cancer doctors, use theSystemic Cancer Multistep Therapy (SCMT) protocol. Conceived by Manfred von Ardenne in Germany in 1965, SCMT entails injecting patients with glucose to increase blood-glucose concentrations. This lowers pH values in cancer tissues via lactic acid formation. In turn, this intensifies the thermal sensitivity of the malignant tumors and also induces rapid growth of the cancer. Patients are then given whole-body hyperthermia (42 C core temperature) to further stress the cancer cells, followed by chemotherapy or radiation. SCMT was tested on 103 patients with metastasized cancer or recurrent primary tumors in a clinical phase-I study at the Von Ardenne Institute of Applied Medical Research in Dresden, Germany. Five-year survival rates in SCMT-treated patients increased by 25 to 50 percent, and the complete rate of tumor regression increased by 30 to 50 percent.20 The protocol induces rapid growth of the cancer, then treats the tumor with toxic therapies for a dramatic improvement in outcome.
For metastatic cancer cells, a shift towards growth is facilitated by an evolutionary novel microenvironment within the body, which is characterized by a permanent availability of high amounts of glucose due to a nutrition with a high glycemic index, the absence of periods of starvation, as well as reduced physical activity. The more the body absorbs simple carbohydrates in the form of artificial sugars
FACT #5 – Conventional Cancer Treatment Kills More Than It Cures
Why The Cancer Industry Claims This Is a Myth
The medical community insists that surgery is still the most effective treatment we have for cancer. Radiotherapy helps cure more people than cancer drugs. Yet chemotherapy and other cancer drugs have a very important part to play in cancer treatment — in some cases helping to cure the disease, and in others helping to prolong survival. Chemotherapy does not encourage cancer.
The Reality
Doctors and pharmaceutical companies make money from it. That’s the only reason chemotherapy is still used. Not because it’s effective, decreases morbidity, mortality or diminishes any specific cancer rates. In fact, it does the opposite. Chemotherapy boosts cancer growthand long-term mortality rates. Most chemotherapy patients either die or are plagued with illness within 10-15 years after treatment. It destroys their immune system, increases neuro-cognitive decline, disrupts endocrine functioning and causes organ and metabolic toxicities. Patients basically live in a permanent state of disease until their death.
The reason a 5-year relative survival rate is the standard used to assess mortality rates is due to most cancer patients going downhill after this period. It’s exceptionally bad for business and the cancer industry knows it. They could never show the public the true 97% statistical failure rate in treating long-term metastatic cancers. If they did publish the long-term statistics for all cancers administered cytotoxic chemotherapy, that is 10+ years and produced the objective data on rigorous evaluations including the cost-effectiveness, impact on the immune system, quality of life, morbidity and mortality, it would be very clear to the world that chemotherapy makes little to no contribution to cancer survival at all. No such study has ever been conducted by independent investigators in the history of chemotherapy. The only studies available come from industry funded institutions and scientists and none of them have ever inclusively quantified the above variables.
Why? Money, greed and profits run the cancer industry–nothing else. The cancer establishment must retreat from the truth to treat cancer because there will never be any profit for them in in eradicating the disease. There is no governing body in the world that protects consumers from being subjected to these toxic therapies or even known carcinogens in our foods our environment, because that too, will prevent the profits from rolling in. It’s a business of mammoth proportions and must be treated as such.
According to official statistics, one person out of two is claimed to recover from cancer through conventional methods. Although dramatic, the information nevertheless contains a certain amount of hope, as implicitly it provides something positive for both scientists and patients. To the scientists it says: continue the research because it is producing results; do not try preventive, alternative theoretical or therapeutic roads, nor get discouraged by the fact that patients keep on dying every day. To the patients, on the other hand, it provides a warning: you have a 50 percent chance of making it, as long as you follow the conventional therapeutic protocols without trying what they claim are the useless alternatives.
So, in the early stages of tumors (the dubious ones) the recovery rates are extremely high, while in the following stages — that is, where they certainly are tumors — the rates are barely above zero. The reason for the discrepancy is the qualification of the data and how a patient is assessed in terms of recovery. Immune reconstitution and tolerance, organ and metabolic toxicities, endocrine challenges, functional outcomes, quality of life, and neurocognitive outcomes are NEVER inclusively assessed in any clinical study discussing the long-term survival and recovery rates of cancer patients. The damage to these systems slowly develops after chemotherapy, however if often does not begin to manifest throughout the body until several months or even years have passed. It takes time, but within a 3-5 year period, most chemotherapy patients begin to have many more symptoms of disease than they every had before their diagnosis, due to and as a direct result of cytotoxic drug intervention.
Adjuvant chemotherapy is often given to patients who might not really need it at all. Oncologists do not consider the whole spectrum of chemotherapy risks versus benefits and thus compromise quality of life for every patient they treat. A study in the Annals of Oncology is one of few which assessed the different potential long-term adverse events associated with adjuvant chemotherapy in cancer, with a particular focus on long-term cardiac toxicity, secondary leukemia, cognitive function, and neurotoxicity. The authors stated that the adverse events are frequently overshadowed by the well-demonstrated clinical efficacy and/or reassuring short-term safety profiles of the different chemotherapy regimens commonly used today.
Another study in the American Society of Clinical Oncologydetermined whether long-term survivors of metastatic testicular cancer have an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity more than 10 years after chemotherapy. They observed a significantly increased risk for occurrence of cardiac events accompanied by a persisting unfavorable cardiovascular risk profile likely due to chemotherapeutic agents.
Sour
A 12-year meta-analysis published in the Journal of Clinical Oncologyobserved adults who had developed cancer and treated with chemotherapy. The 12-year study looked at adults who had developed cancer as an adult. 97% of the time, chemotherapy did not work in regressing the metastatic cancers.
Declaration of Independence.
The Declaration of Independence: A Transcription
IN CONGRESS, July 4, 1776.
The unanimous Declaration of the thirteen united States of America,
When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
He has forbidden his Governors to pass Laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his Assent should be obtained; and when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them.
He has refused to pass other Laws for the accommodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of Representation in the Legislature, a right inestimable to them and formidable to tyrants only.
He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of their public Records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance with his measures.
He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly, for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people.
He has refused for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the Legislative powers, incapable of Annihilation, have returned to the People at large for their exercise; the State remaining in the mean time exposed to all the dangers of invasion from without, and convulsions within.
He has endeavoured to prevent the population of these States; for that purpose obstructing the Laws for Naturalization of Foreigners; refusing to pass others to encourage their migrations hither, and raising the conditions of new Appropriations of Lands.
He has obstructed the Administration of Justice, by refusing his Assent to Laws for establishing Judiciary powers.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.
He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:
For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:
For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:
For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:
For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:
For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:
For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences
For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:
For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:
For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.
He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.
He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.
He is at this time transporting large Armies of foreign Mercenaries to compleat the works of death, desolation and tyranny, already begun with circumstances of Cruelty & perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the Head of a civilized nation.
He has constrained our fellow Citizens taken Captive on the high Seas to bear Arms against their Country, to become the executioners of their friends and Brethren, or to fall themselves by their Hands.
He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavoured to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian Savages, whose known rule of warfare, is an undistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and conditions.
In every stage of these Oppressions We have Petitioned for Redress in the most humble terms: Our repeated Petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A Prince whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people.
Nor have We been wanting in attentions to our Brittish brethren. We have warned them from time to time of attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarrantable jurisdiction over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them by the ties of our common kindred to disavow these usurpations, which, would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They too have been deaf to the voice of justice and of consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in the necessity, which denounces our Separation, and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind, Enemies in War, in Peace Friends.
We, therefore, the Representatives of the united States of America, in General Congress, Assembled, appealing to the Supreme Judge of the world for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the Name, and by Authority of the good People of these Colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of Right ought to be Free and Independent States; that they are Absolved from all Allegiance to the British Crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain, is and ought to be totally dissolved; and that as Free and Independent States, they have full Power to levy War, conclude Peace, contract Alliances, establish Commerce, and to do all other Acts and Things which Independent States may of right do. And for the support of this Declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our Lives, our Fortunes and our sacred Honor.

Mysticism and Psychosis: Descriptions and Distinctions Michael McGhee
. . . spiritual or mystical experiences are those states in which the form of experience is altered from normal consciousness, resulting in a new understanding of the basic nature of reality, life, and the individual. Psychotic experiences are those states that also flow from alterations of the form of experience, but result in a pathological interaction between the individual and the world. Therefore, according to these definitions, phenomena occurring in a spiritual context may be identical to those traditionally viewed as symptoms of psychosis, but cannot be seen as psychotic in themselves.

‘The Syrian Daesh fighter said that he had been fighting against the Kurds alongside Turkey, citing the well-known slogan “the enemy of my enemy is my friend.”
The Saudi fighter revealed that he had easily crossed the Turkish–Syrian border and confirmed that all the supplies that they needed had been coming over from Turkey.
The Turkish serviceman also confirmed how easy it was to cross the border and said that his commander instructed him to flee to Turkey if ever he was wounded or got surrounded. He also commented at length on the Erdogan’s policy, his ties with Daesh and the illegal oil trade.’

Taurus Ascendant - World Beautifier
A vital fixed earth sign with solstice point in Leo, the esoteric ruler is Vulcan of beautifying with what is available. First he removes the negativity from his being and sets out to develop his spiritual side. His soul’s purpose is tightly woven to his ability to get along with others. Education and balancing are aspects of his linkage.Affirmation of Taurus
Earth in Capricorn.
Earth in Capricorn
As we know Capricorn is the ~Gate Out~ of ordinary incarnations, and onto the wheel of initiation and the birthing of the Christ consciousness hidden in the womb of the Virgin. The position the Earth occupies in the natal chart when the Sun is in Cancer reveals the place and function by which the Soul centred individual can most positive release his or her portion of the One Life into manifestation. Both the dharma and the karma of the life conjoin through Saturn’s association with Capricorn, the Earth and the Third Ray. Should Saturn also be found in Capricorn, conjunct the Earth and in actual opposition to the Sun in Cancer, this incarnation points to a great culmination of previous efforts in former lifetimes and a great challenge is revealed in the current one. The challenge involves the proper structuring of the life forces so that they are put under the total Will of the Father. There is no room for duality in this position, and the light of the one-pointed disciple must shine through the illusions of the material life. No-one said it would be easy!

Okay,
Hier zit ik
Piano bij de hand
Geen gechipte hand
Want dat weigerde ik constant
Veel occulte boeken gelezen
Beter dan religies
Zelfs Mohammed was ergens een soefi,
Dat zei Michael Tsarion ergens
Moslims zijn nog steeds geen vijanden
Terrorparanoia, de ziekte van de tijd
Lees George Orwell
Verzetsstrijder van het eerste uur
Die zag Grote Broer graag op het einde
Maar goed, dat was een ander tijdperk
Duivelen kunnen ons niet bekoren
Mindprogramma's uit het verleden uitgewist
Het is wat het is
En we zijn allen één
Vandaag zelfs een draak vergeven
Ik ben niet Kristof
Kristof is maar een naam die ik kreeg
Net als Van Hooymissen
Weet ik veel vanwaar die naam komt
Van oudburgemeesters van Hemiksem
En bierbrouwers die mensen dronken voerden
Met Sint-Michael
Een bierke
En verder?
Weet ik veel
Niet belangrijk
Mary Jane
Ook een mysterie
Soms een spook
Soms een schip
Nu vooral mens-in-transformatie
Van 1984
Een gevaarlijk jaar voor controlefreaks
Nu slaapt ze
Tweeling zijnde
Ik heb een boon voor tweelingen
Licht en donker
Zoniet bleef ik veel te goed voor deze wereld
Tijdreis
Doorreis
Eindbestemming onbekend
Ze voortspelde dat ik nog schoon volk
Ga tegenkomen
Die muziek gaan maken
Als er één en ander klaar is
Orakelen kan ze wel
Ik hou het bij de Hopi
2025 is nog veraf
Maar de fotoontjes sprankelen
Voelen jullie dat ook?
Ik kijk amper naar het nieuws
Zie hoe de NOVOS ORDO SECLORUM
Overal via terreur controle installeert
Ik heb hoegenaamd niks tegen de dollar
En Saint Germain
Hoewel ik de dollar bijna in de fik heb gestoken
Ik ben ook van de dertiende
Dertien lagen op de piramide
Alsof het veel belang heeft
All preconceived ideas
Misschien is mijn echte naam wel Rothschild
Tegen wie vecht ik dan eigenlijk
Zoveel dat we niet weten
En ik weet vooral dat ik niks weet
Daarom wil ik David zien in Amsterdam
Met of zonder medewerking van de administratie
Zal wellicht wel zonder zijn
Ik trek mijn plan wel
Ik vind wel een oplossing
Ik ben een Eenheidsbewustzijn
Mijn leven doorgebracht
Met het bestuderen van heiligen en wijzen
Mystici en occultisten
En diegenen die er dan muzikaal of poetisch mee aan de slag gingen
Zoals David Bowie
Ik doe niet meer aan idolatrie
Maar vele zogenaamde idolen
Zie ik wel als zielsverwanten
De moonmatrix is ontcijferd
Want er klopte iets niet
Veel geld kan er tegen dingen aan worden gegooid
Maar dat draagt hoegenaamd niks bij tot de aard der dingen
Onbeschrijflijk
Het zit vanbinnen
Diep vanbinnen
Zoveel Zonnen overal
En kalenders
Lange tellingen
Korten tellingen
Cycli bovenal
En de toekomst lacht ons toe
Nothing to fear Nothing to doubt
Elke dag begin ik met een leeg blad aan de dag voortaan
Ik laat mij via synchroniciteit leiden
Door een hogere kracht
Die niet via vastgestelde boeken
Te verklaren valt
Dat moet je overboord gooien
Wist zelfs de boeddha al
Van Aleister Crowley maakten ze de geflipste mens die er rondliep
Hij noemde zichzelf een Beest
Hoe kan het ook anders,
Kraaien zijn toch beesten?
Enfin, dieren
Ik ben vegetariër
Ik ben de dieren welgezind
Michael leest Crowley
David Bowie kon er ook een eind mee aan
Maar ik hoef niemand te imiteren
Ik heb al voldoende aan mezelf te scheppen
Elke dag opnieuw
De esoterie in het Westen is opgedroogd
Toch wat er in het Westen commercieel over de toonbanken gaat
Zit er nog iets interessants bij?
Zoveel paranormale feiten reeds wetenschap
Quantumfysica
Toch snapt zelfs de politie niet wat er in mijn woning
Allemaal gespookt heeft
Zweven tussen parallelle universa
En daarmee de werkelijkheid aanpassen
Of deden die anderen dat
In het duister?
God mag het weten
De toekomt lacht ons toe
Ik kijk amper naar het nieuws
Misschien na de big event omstreeks
April 2016
Weer wat meer vrijheid
Russian Dolls zijn geweldig
Uit dat Phantom Self ben ik nog wijs geraakt David
Er is iets op til
En de uitkomst zal prachtig zijn
Maar op het gemakje
Alles komt ten gepaste tijden
De Goden mijn vrienden
Die helpen wel een handje als het moet
Ik weet dat ik niks weet
Mijn leven een leuke ontdekkingsreis
Ik gebruik aanstekers en geen lucifers om te roken
Ik heb een hekel aan lucifers
Michael weet wel waarom
En dat het goedkomt
Evenzeer
Goede zwanen
Samen naar Engelenland varen
Leda kijkt rustig toe
En op de juiste moment
Alsof de kosmos vanzelf ingrijpt
Door mijn eigen welbewuste intentie
Zal de vrijheid van mijn wezen
En mijn opperste geluk
Zich vanuit de schermzone tussen
Vijfde en zesde dimensie
In de derde dimensie een feit zijn
Maar ik ga me niet haasten
Daar heb ik een hekel aan
Ik ben de druk bezig met niet-doen.
En het oordelen is aan God
Daar hou ik mij niet mee bezig.
Ik ben slechts een dienaar
Die niet zelf de Wet is
Maar beseft dat een Eenheidsbewustzijn
Veel weten overbodig kan maken
Omdat we ondanks de moeilijkheden
Voor elkaar zorg blijven dragen
In Liefde en Vrede
Wordt vervolgd ....

On Gemini.
Esoteric Ruler of Gemini
The predominant concept which we hold as love, especially that aspect of love which is romanticised, exalted in song and poetry, searched for to the ends of the earth, and generally being thought of as the quintessential sharing between human beings, would hardly be thought of as being logical in nature. Yet the essential quality of consciousness, the primary emanation of Divinity on the plane of causality, and Its incarnation in humankind, is a pure expression of Universal Mind.
On the Soul level, Venus is the vehicle for the emergence of this Love Principle of Life, through the focused will of the Mind of god. It is this spiritual aspect of Venus which reveals the Son of God (Venus exalted in Pisces) as the Son of Mind perfected (the Initiate). It is this consecrated human being Who is the instrument of God’s love.
Venus functions to turn knowledge into Wisdom. It harmoniously links the lower and the higher mental faculties through the rhythm of relatedness embodied in its sign, Gemini. Its focus in the human organism is through the Third Eye, the eye of the Bull etc. this is the seat of wisdom and the lens through which the more highly developed human being perceives the world.
Venus is thus the focus of synthesis, the resolution of polarity {that is the right and left eyes} and the blending quality which aids in the resolution of duality. It is the energy of Venus which promotes diplomacy and established Right Human Relations between all people and between nations. Venus’s great potency lies in its ability to bring about harmonious relationships within pairs of opposites, thus further creative manifestation on all levels. This may be compared to the function of Mercury, which awakens consciousness by relating opposites, but does not harmonise or blend them.
One of the most beautiful aspects of this function of Venus is also one of the most esoteric. In the Ancient Wisdom Teachings, we find that the work of Venus helped to give Humanity its special quality of being. Venus, through Gemini, brought about the attraction of the Third Kingdom of Nature (the Animal Kingdom) and the Fifth (the Kingdom of the Souls). The result of this ~marriage~ was the birth of the Fourth Kingdom (the Human) - beings whose souls are attached to animal forms and whose great lesson is to redeem the animal self through those initiatic phases leading to Soul infusion of the lower self.
When Venus is working through the consciousness of a Soul-centred individual, the concept and function of love gives one the objective of co-ordinating one’s Active Intelligence so that it produces cohesive acts of goodwill and further right Human Relations. This often requires the sacrifice of the power, personality-centred love nature so that the more transpersonal qualities love may bring about an increasingly impersonal orientation to life.
Life then becomes more mentally polarised; that is, more perceptive into cause rather than effect, essence rather than form. This should not be confused with a life which is intellectually centred, as this indicates an emphasis on the lower mental facilities. The latter serve to store knowledge, formulate opinions, and structure logic. Once a person is thus mentally polarised, his perception of reality is freed from the thralldom of the astral-desire nature, and true service may be externalised into the world.
It must be mentioned that as love has a strongly synthetic quality about it, one doesn’t ~lose~ anything by having a lovingly detached, impersonal attitude. Venus can still bring the partner, but such a one will be a mate, a co-working brother or sister and a companion along the Way.
~That which is on its way comes as a cloud which veils the Sun. But hid behind this cloud of immanence is love, and on the Earth is love and in the heaven is love, and this - the love which maketh all things new - must stand revealed. This is the purpose back of all the acts of this great Lord of Knowledge~ - (Alice Bailey - Esoteric Astrology)

Na Brussel. Voor Brussel. - Hart Boven Hard
En toen lag ineens ook Brussel in de vuurlijn. In die lange lange vuurlijn die over de wereld kronkelt van Kaboel naar Bagdad, over Aleppo en Gaza, tot diep in Kenia en Ivoorkust, langs New York, Madrid, Londen, Parijs. Die bloedlijn van het terrorisme heeft haar weg gevonden naar het hart van Europa.
Nu bonkte het bij ons in de keel. Op zo’n moment ben je geen natie, geen geloofsovertuiging. Als je hart in je keel klopt, ben je mens. In het aanschijn van terreur zijn we allemaal kinderen van ouders, ouders van kinderen, kennissen van slachtoffers. Geschokte zielen met een krop. Onze gedachten gaan naar wie gestorven zijn, naar hun familie. Ze namen gewoon de metro. Ze zouden gewoon het vliegtuig nemen. Op een doodgewone dinsdag.
Het grootste gevaar van terreur is dat nu ook de angst doodgewoon wordt. Dat militairen op straat doodgewoon worden, samen met onze argwaan voor anderen. Het grootste gevaar van terreur is dat vrijheid iets wordt dat je alleen nog kan ervaren achter hoge muren, achter grote rollen prikkeldraad, achter dure beveiligingscodes. Dat is wat terreur doet: muren opwerpen. Ze maakt van onze wereld een samenleving van kampen, van ‘wij’ tegen ‘zij’. Ze maakt van mensen kampbewoners.
Dat laten we niet gebeuren. Daarom zijn we hier vandaag bijeen. Waar bommen gemaakt zijn om te versplinteren, is het onze grote verantwoordelijkheid om de boel samen te houden. Martin Luther King zei het zo: ‘We moeten dijken van moed bouwen om de vloed van angst tegen te houden.’ Onze dijken beginnen waar de muren tussen wij en zij neergaan.
En die verantwoordelijkheid verwachten we ook van onze beleidsmakers. Waarom trokken ze 400 miljoen euro extra uit voor ons verhoogde veiligheidsgevoel, terwijl de media nu vol staan over mogelijke blunders? Waarom werden na de aanslagen in Parijs verschillende onschuldigen het slachtoffer van ethnic profiling, terwijl nu blijkt dat de echte kamikazes amper werden gescreend? Pak de versnippering van onze politiediensten aan. Stop de dubbele moraal in onze internationale politiek, stop de wapenexport naar bedenkelijke regimes. Vredespolitiek vóór oorlogsretoriek. Onveiligheid bestrijd je niet door mensen tegen elkaar op te zetten.
Wij beloven hier om daarover te waken. Nu ook Europa de ogen heeft moeten openen voor de grote terreur, mogen we ze vooral niet meer sluiten voor de kleine terreur: de intimidaties, de discriminatie, het racisme. Waar die kleine terreur doodgewoon wordt, moeten we er ons net zo eensgezind over verontwaardigen als over de grote terreur.
Samen staan we op tegen haat en agressie. Handen in elkaar, armen open. Vrijheid, veiligheid en solidariteit horen samen. Laten ons daarom altijd, in elk debat over deze kwestie, terug dat moment herinneren dat bij ons allemaal het hart in de keel klopte. Dat moment dat we samen mensen waren. Hart boven haat.
Deze tekst wordt gebruikt op de verschillende wakes die georganiseerd worden uit solidariteit met de slachtoffers van terreur.
