Those fighting floods in several communities along the Mississippi River were mostly successful Sunday despite the onslaught of water.

The surging Mississippi was at or near crest at several places from the Quad Cities south to near St. Louis -- some reaching 10-12 feet above flood stage. Problems were plentiful: Hundreds of thousands of acres of swamped farmland as planting season approaches; three people died; roads and bridges closed, including sections of major highways like U.S. 61 in Iowa and Missouri and crossings at Quincy, Ill., and Louisiana, Mo.

Poof

April 21, 2013 | RMN

Greetings and Salutations:

Again, the happy talk is rolling. If all that took place amongst the financial ministers, took place, then the world is fully engaged to be rid of the fractional reserve banking system. You say, the fed banking system. It was always coming any how. You can’t maintain control of the world by military might, or worthless paper. Gold is priced in frns and it’s dropping, that should tell you something. Something abnormal is afoot. Central banks are going the way of the dinosaur, each country is growing into running their own clean banking system. That’s the only way they will be able to move on anyway. Such a scary thing, like it’s something foreign, metal backed currency. That’s the way it’s supposed be anyhow, constitutionally. Nothing new here.

HILARION'S WEEKLY MESSAGE 2013 April 21-28, 2013

The Rainbow Scribe

Beloved Ones,

The times that you are living in are wrought with both the greatest of challenges and the greatest of blessings. As the third dimensional energies are no longer being supported by the very atmosphere surrounding the Earth, it is becoming increasingly difficult to hold the denser energies in your personal energy fields. There is a boomerang effect that is occurring whereby those who harbor and hold the denser energies are finding that it comes back to them intensely magnified and this energy sometimes erupts in ways that are difficult to comprehend by the greater community.

It is becoming increasingly important to release these denser energies in ways that do not impinge upon the World in a harmful manner. The role that you, the Lightworkers, play at this time is that of balancing and dissolving discordant energies. This is something each of you automatically pray and intend as the need arises. You have learned how to transmute the lower energies within yourselves and walk the Earth without making a negative impact upon it. It is important to hold love within your hearts no matter what transpires in the changing World around you and this you are doing admirably.
