Band of Brothers (insight from the guides)

Posted on by Tom Kelly

This weekend I started re-watching “Band of Brothers” a 2001 miniseries that follows the 101st Airborne “Easy Company” during World War II.

Not just that, I’ve watched several similar movies recently and visited Arlington, VA, along with the Vietnam and Korean Memorials in Washington.

There is no glorification of war here, just stark reminders of the service and loss to a nation, and many nations.

The question is, why was I drawn to these somber places and to watch these historical films? What was this calling?

I’ve been close to these spaces all my life, it’s deeply rooted.

Family Style

Posted on by Tom Kelly

I recently returned from a 16-day trip to the United States, visiting 11 states and districts.

From our first step(s) south, there was an easy feeling that continued for the remainder of our trip.

Why is this notable? Because from where I live in Canada, the US is portrayed as a nation in crisis, divided on every level, yet this was not my experience.

I’ve struggled to write about my experience because so much information wanted to be expressed, yet the story was not complicated. Boiling syrup to get something sweet has been my challenge.

It forced looking at America and feeling into this brotherly dynamic we share. Looking at the deep roots that connect us and how we’ve grown to become who we are.

We are both free and sovereign nations, yet we express our freedom and liberty quite differently.

What I was expecting to see in the US were cracks in the fabric of this deeply patriotic nation and yet there were seemingly none. Back home in Canada cracks are everywhere, so what was happening?

Different Stripes (message from the guides)

Posted on by Tom Kelly

Earlier this week I received this message

The initial words the guides provided were “Don’t overlook the importance of working folk, the people who get dirty for a living. These people are the muscle behind what gets done and we praise their hard work. Without this strength and charisma, your world would be very different. You need to understand this so you don’t lose it.”

When I heard this I smiled. Blue collar hands-on jobs were always fun for me. You knew the people around you and could feel into their lives, there were no secrets. You knew when someone needed support and it was offered wholeheartedly. Material things rarely meant much but everything else did.

In recent years without the same capacity in manufacturing, I re-trained and shifted gears leading to a completely different dimension of work. I missed the big booming personalities on the shop floor of which I was one.

The guides continued, showing me people waiting for buses, carrying their lunch, and sitting peacefully looking forward to the day ahead. They showed me a very independent group who had the strength and ferocity to live without complaint. These people know who they are, what they stand for when to bust a friend’s balls, and when to stand down.

Beech, The Tree of Breath

If you are looking for relief from congestion or simply to open your breath, Beech is the tree for you.

Walking the forest I first noticed this in 2020 and since I have continued to engage with this wonderful tree.

The Beech is found in forests in North America, somewhat less as a tree planted on properties. Its smooth trunk gives it away. It also does not shed its leaves in winter showing a golden color in the forest. Its leaves are almond-shaped with small spikes along the outer edges, reaching 3-6 inches in length.

I noticed this extraordinary gift on a beautiful spring day. It was warm and I stepped off the trail into a small group of trees in the shade. As I placed my hand on a young Beech tree maybe 20 years old I found it cool to the touch. I immediately sensed a wave of fresh cool air around the tree where I was standing and breathed this air in. It cooled my entire body and my lungs allowing more capacity and expansion of the airway. After several breaths, I stepped away from the tree and then back into its space again placing my hand on the trunk. I felt the same sensation which had not been as strong when I stepped away.

All of Us

Posted on by Tom Kelly

I’m back from 2 weeks in the United States.

The trip was amazing! So many messages came in.

Today, I can share something that came in as a direct message.

Part of my trip led me to some large cities and the downtown core. Normally I would resist being in large cities, especially downtown, but there was something there to witness.

People were coming and going, looking at phones, trying to get places, and not seeming to experience much of what I consider the totality or expansiveness of life or the world around them. At first, I was curious to watch, and then I felt saddened.

What I saw over and over was a working machine that I couldn’t understand. People were the inner workings of this machine. The buildings around us were built to allow a machine to operate, to master the art of doing.

Awareness a Key to Transformation

Posted on by Tom Kelly

We can all idle without purpose in life, not living fully. Most of us can identify, knowing this state as autopilot. Our awareness is dimmed to a point where we only step back into life when needed. Often getting pulled back to stressful or triggering situations and we are forced to engage.

So what’s wrong with lacking awareness and living life this way? Not a thing, “free will” is the greatest gift we are giving as humans, allowing us to choose how to live. There is no right, or wrong.

If we choose to live an aware life, we are forced to sense and feel at a deeper level. To be in every moment, taking it all in, not always knowing or understanding the intricate details we may see.

Light to the Planet

Posted on by Tom Kelly

In a dream space that spanned the entire night (or so it seemed) on February 3/4, 2024 I was shown some very powerful things

I’ll say right up front that this dream seemed to cross over to reality and was not by any means soft and fuzzy. The energy I was seeing and engaging with was very strong and at times violent. This is not how messages are usually shown to me so I needed to understand this more fully before sharing.

Part of the message was to demonstrate the strength of light coming to the planet. This light was all-encompassing and transmitted through everything on earth. I saw it in buildings and homes but the most interesting imagery was to see light under the ground within the earth. The light that we might imagine seeing on the surface of the planet was equally bright and powerful within the Earth. Part of the message was to clearly show there was no place unaffected, no place to hide (so to speak).

We Are the World (a message from the guides)

Posted on by Tom Kelly
We Are the World artists in a group

This week I watched “The Greatest Night in Pop” on Netflix. And it created the opening for a message I would like to share.

First off, most of you will not know the profound impact music has on me. It’s God’s way of speaking directly to my soul and heart. Many of you may know this yourself.

When I turned on this video I almost immediately had tears in my eyes, and this continued throughout. This documentary looks at the creation of the song “We Are the World.”

I was in my twenties when this all went down. My girlfriend worked at the big FM station in town and I had the inside to everything music. It was a magical time for me as a music fan but it went much deeper as this documentary reminded me. It was a time when people put up their hands and said count me in. It happened slowly, one hand at a time, eventually becoming a global movement.

Fear (a message from the guides)

Posted on by Tom Kelly

Recently I was given some very profound information while also being reminded of a major concept most of us push to the side or may not fully understand.

I was visiting a local hospital and on the way out, stopped for a coffee. It was the dinner hour and eerily quiet. Something in my peripheral vision grabbed my attention. I allowed this to expand and realized it was an energy pattern across the corridor. It wasn’t sure what this energy wanted or was trying to say, it just seemed dull and lifeless.

My first reaction was to call in my teams for more protection and shielding, given the energy in hospitals.

The Magic of Mushrooms

Posted on by Tom Kelly
I know quite a bit about the magical properties of mushrooms.

I know quite a bit about the magical properties of mushrooms. The healing potentials many mushrooms have and the benefit their root systems (mycelium) provide to ecosystems they touch.

What I didn’t know about mushrooms but was shown recently in a “dream state,” is how they fully engage with all of nature and humanity.

In this vision, I was shown a simple mushroom on a lush forest floor. It was sitting amongst beautiful tall pines with just the perfect amount of light to illuminate it fully. The scene was as if a movie set had been created just for me and for this demonstration.
