| Behind the curtain From: Cathy Buckle (cbuckle@mango.zw) Sent: Sat 5/31/08 6:19 AM To: African Tears (cbuckle@mango.zw)
Dear Family and Friends,
The winner and loser of Zimbabwe's March Presidential election have begun campaigning for confirmation of their positions in a second round of the ballot. Mr Mugabe, who lost in the first round, says that people voted with their stomachs and not their minds on March 29th. Mr Mugabe's new campaign is so far focussing on apparent plots by the British, Americans and people he calls their allies and puppets whom he says are trying to re-colonise Zimbabwe.
These new colonisers, who are, by the way, not entitled to vote in the coming election, are also to blame for the dire situation in the country.
Mr Mugabe said: "There might be grievances about prices, food shortages and non-availability of basic commodities. These are being caused by sanctions and food shortages are a result of drought."
Mrs Mugabe, speaking in Shamva alongside her husband this week, was even more forthright in her comments. Mrs Mugabe said: "Even if people vote for the MDC, Morgan Tsvangirai will never step foot inside State House. He will only get to hear about what it looks like inside State House from people who have been there. Even if Baba (Mugabe) loses, he will only leave State House to make way for someone from Zanu PF."
Ordinary Zimbabweans, meanwhile, are facing the coming poll in a state of shock and disbelief. Everywhere you go people have accounts of terror and horror to relate about events that have taken place in the last two months. Tales of burning, running, hiding, broken limbs, abductions and murder.
The MDC say that in the past six weeks 50 Zimbabweans have been killed in political violence and more than 25 000 have been displaced. MDC leader, Morgan Tsvangirai and the winner of the March 29th Presidential election, said on his return to the country : "They [the Government] have beaten themselves into serious rejection by the people of Zimbabwe." Mr. Tsvangirai described the situation in Zimbabwe as 'tragic' and said the nation is : "in a state of despair."
For the past three weeks while the world's cameras have been upon attacks on foreigners in South Africa, mayhem has been going on almost un-noticed behind the curtain in Zimbabwe. Zimbabweans want a change to this dreadful, crushing way of life. What they need now is to believe in themselves and to believe that they can effect that change.
Until next week, thanks for reading,
love cathy.

| The Potter's Song by J.Asprey The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah saying: "Go down to the house of the Potter watch him work the clay Listen to what I say as you watch him. Go down to the house of the Potter watch him turn the wheel Know that's how I feel as I'm working That is how I need to mold you form a vessel in My hand Just to let Me have and hold you break you, make you to My plan Go down to the house of the Potter watch him work the clay Listen to what I say as you watch him Go down to the house of the Potter watch him turn the wheel know that's how I feel as I'm working For I need these Earthen Vessels filled with Life that overflows Put My Treasure in Earthen Vessels then the skill of the Potter shows" So I went down to the house of the Potter and there he was working at his wheel Sometimes the vessel would spoil in his hands and he would re-work it as it was fitting for him to do -------------------------------- from "Celebrate the Whole of It" www.communityofcelebration.com | | |

Thanks for your concern, appreciated. Thanks for the info on the five pointed star...hmmm...hadn't noticed that.
Bonnie: If you still have that dream on record would you repost it? It sounds very similar to all those black train dreams in which the Ancients are watching as the train similar to yours is moving west. | |

Eve: Yikes! That "V" guy is really creepy! And regarding the name "Sheridan" it is my paternal grandmother's maiden name and I am her name-sake. Her name was Mary Catherine Sheridan until she married a "Young". Her Father or Grandfather(?)was General Philip Sheridan for whom the town of Sheridan,WY is named. No wonder I'm seeing lions in my dreams! They're in the family!
Djazz&Bonnie: Yeah, I do have a connection to those areas. see response above to Eve about my Grandmother.
Dear Wife: Thank you for the interesting information and links. More to ponder for sure.

And no I did not wake up refreshed nor particularly pleased with this dream. I awoke feeling exhausted and disturbed by it. This was one of those all too familiar recurring, vivid dreams full of symbolism, the meaning of which I have yet to understand. Also, as is common with these dreams, I was aware that I was dreaming. | |

| 186 | Frank Condon / Hi Frank....Ring of Fire and San Gabriel | on: September 17, 2006, 06:03:54 PM | Thank you! Will be watching that area. That's the same area of other dreams too regarding the "grapevine" and Riverside if I recall correctly. I was also wondering about there being any relation between Beverly Hills and the San Gabriel since Beverly Hills has come up rather frequently too.
Anyway, thanks much! Foul weather incoming so I've got to get off-line again.
Keep up the good work! peace and God bless! mc | |

| 187 | Frank Condon / Frank....Ring of Fire and San Gabriel | on: September 17, 2006, 03:56:25 PM | You asked me awhile back to let you know if I got anything regarding the Ring of Fire. Well I did today although am not certain of its meaning. See link to dream:
http://camel.he.net/~syzygyq/new_site//index.php?option=com_smf&Itemid=35&topic=243898.0
Also, I am wondering if there is anything you may be watching in regards to the San Gabriel Mountains? I dreamed of my guitar(which I named "Gabriel")being smashed and violently pounded into the earth, neck first until only a small portion of it was visible. My impression of this particular part of a broader dream has me wondering if the San Gabriel Mountains are moving. I've had many dreams about them before and there's been nothing to my knowledge happening there. There was also a smell of ammonia associated with the entire dream.
Any thoughts?

| 188 | Syzygy Dreams and Visions / Woman With Bowls of Molten Lava | on: September 17, 2006, 03:21:08 PM | Sunday September 17,2006 11:59AM(Central)
No longer recall entire dream but do vividly recall two scenes from it. The first was an aerial view looking down upon a large volcanic plain and in several places there was red hot molten lava bubbling upward in what appeared to be little "potholes"(for lack of a better description).
The second scene was of a native polynesian? woman with very long jet black hair standing barefoot upon this volcanic plain. She was dressed in a simple white short sleeved dress. As I watched, she walked over to one of the holes of bubbling molten lava and knelt down next to its edge.
There were four black stone bowls sitting next to the lava hole. The woman took each bowl one at a time and dipped them into the molten lava until they were all full of the red-orange liquid. She placed each bowl at the sides of the lava hole in a north-south/east-west position. Then she raised both hands heavenward and sang a song that sounded very much like Hawaiian or a similar language.
Following this, she took each bowl one at a time and held it heavenward and sang another song. She sang a different song for each of the four bowls. After each song she replaced the bowl in her hands to its original position. Clearly this was some kind of ritual or ceremony and clearly very sacred.
The most amazing thing to me as I watched this whole thing was that the woman appeared to be unaffected by the heat of the lava plain as she walked, then knelt upon it. Even more amazing was that she dipped the four black stone bowls into the liquid lava with her bare hands and was unaffected by this physically.
I was awakened by a loud noise from outside and did not go back to sleep.
I've been wondering about the meaning of these scenes most of the day today. Wondering if there are four volcanoes about to erupt in the Pacific ring of fire? Or perhaps the woman represents the Earth Mother and she is healing herself?
Cannot recall the earlier part of the dream so I have no full context of why I was there watching all this. I do recall there being someone with me but do not recall who it was. I also recall we were above and looking down but out of body as we did so.
Comments welcome.

| 189 | Syzygy Dreams and Visions / Pigs..Ammonia..San Gabriel Mts? | on: September 16, 2006, 05:36:46 PM | Saturday September 16,2006 12:57pm(central)
I was up on a cat-walk looking down upon a large open room filled with rows and rows of white rectangular porcelain tubs. Within each tub were eight metal pans containing one object covered in white gauze-like material. I asked the man with me if I could go down there and get a closer look. He took me down to the floor and showed me one of the tubs.
This tub was about 2-1/2 feet deep and contained 8 metal pans about 5 inches deep and 28x14 inches in size. He pulled up the gauze-like material on one of the objects in one of the metal pans and I was shocked to see it was a live pig(small and pinkish in color).
It was standing in about 2 or so inches of liquid that reeked of ammonia. I asked what this liquid was and the man said "Ammonia". I was pretty horrified and angry too. I asked what were these little pigs doing standing there in ammonia looking obviously tortured?
The man told me it was a "government experiment" the "purpose" of which was "unknown".
Very disturbed by this whole scene I went home to shower and change clothes to get the smell of ammonia off me. My "home" was a kitchenette room with two baths in a motel. As I was showering I noticed there was no shower curtain and where the toilet had been there was only a hole in the floor. I also could still smell ammonia even after showering. So once in clean clothes I went looking for the source of the ammonia smell. I found it in the second bathroom.
In this second bathroom was a little boy about 8-9 years old sitting in the bath tub with three pans each containing three little pigs covered and standing in the ammonia. I was very angry and asked the boy, "What are you doing?" "I'm conducting an experiment" he replied.
Greatly disturbed, I left and went outside to look for someone to help me get this boy and his "experiment" out of my room. I found a man who said he'd help. He went into my room and came out with my guitar. He said he couldn't get the boy to leave and the ammonia was so intense he couldn't breathe. "I brought your guitar out because it was the only thing of real value and the ammonia was causing it to crack."
Thanking him I took the guitar(Hernandez classical 1969 hand made)and began trying to play it. I could play it a little but not much as my hands and fingers don't work well anymore. So I just sat looking at it and recalling that when I'd first gotten it I had named it "Gabriel".
The man came over and I set "Gabriel" down for a moment to discuss getting the boy out of my room and rescuing those pigs. While we were discussing this, the boy had come outside unnoticed and he grabbed my guitar and smashed it on the pavement. Then he jammed it into the ground near a grassy area neck first until it was almost completely buried. He then glared at me and said, "Going back to KILL THOSE PIGS! BIT_H!"
I woke up with a start. My first thought was about the guitar("Gabriel") being jammed into the ground and wondering if there was about to be a quake somewhere in the San Gabriel Mountains?
The rest of the dream, I don't know what to think of it.
Comments definitely welcome on this one.

| 190 | Syzygy Dreams and Visions / Dark Storm Pouring From "Hole" in the Sky | on: September 10, 2006, 12:28:35 PM | Sunday September 10,2006 11:44AM(central)
A Storm was coming so myself and others were getting prepared. Closing windows, bringing the cats in, moving stuff to the basement.
We were in a very large Victorian style two-story house that had been built in the early 1900's. It had at one time been an orphanage or convent?
There were a lot of details in this one but to be brief here's the part about the storm. I was up on the 2nd floor closing windows and could see a city skyline not too far away. Time of day was twilight, either dusk or dawn.
Off to the right of this city and high up I saw the sky open like the pupils of a cat's eyes when the lights are turned off. Out of this "hole"(for lack of a better word)came a roiling flow of dark clouds as if it were literally pouring through the hole.
As I watched, this single column of clouds split into two giving it the appearance of a forked tongue. It rapidly flowed out and over the city with great billowing clouds full of deep rolling thunder and streaks of lightning. It engulfed the city and though I was miles away I could hear it.
Then the wind began to blow where I was; so I quickly finished getting the windows closed and the last cat inside and was heading down the stairs towards the basement. I could hear what sounded like hail pounding the house and the sound of the wind became a high-pitched shrieking.
I awoke before reaching the basement.
comment: I do not know where this was nor did I recognize the city sky-line or the house I was in. With the exception of my mother, I don't know the people with me in this house altough I did clearly know them in my dream. One of the several cats in the dream was my cat "Miss Feathers" who is now deceased.
The emotion was very intense and deeply sad because I knew many were being killed in that city. However, I was in high gear along with the others and moving fast to get to the basement. No time to grieve.
comments welcome

| 191 | Syzygy Dreams and Visions / JERUSALEM....5.5 | on: September 10, 2006, 12:18:49 PM | Saturday September 9,2006
Had a very odd dream around midnight last night(fri-sat) in which I saw a white ticker tape scrolling across a tv or computer screen which had this in bold black upon it: " " and so on. This message was moving from right to left. That's all. Not sure what it means but there's that five thing again.
comment: this reminds me of that "Israel 2:11" dream and the other one that I saw with a ticker-tape scrolling with "7.7...7.7...7.7..." etc. don't recall when I posted these two but seems it was several months ago, possibly 2005.

| 192 | Syzygy Dreams and Visions / Dream of Korea | on: September 10, 2006, 12:12:58 PM | Friday(9-08-06)5:53AM:
Saw this couple who play husband and wife in that tv series "LOST" and their characters are Korean and in the series they both spoke in Korean language....anyway they are speaking to me in the dream but it's all in Korean so I don't understand it other than from their hand gestures, facial expressions and tone of their voices it seemed something very tragic(loss of life event) had happened in Korea but could not tell whether it was North or South or both.
