Following criticism that the smoke looked unusually dark and distinct compared with that seen before, a spokesman has admitted that it is not made simply of incinerated ballot papers.

Instead, the smoke is a mixture of chemicals made by adding cartridges containing potassium perchlorate, anthracene (a component of coal tar), and sulphur to the burning ballots.The Rev. Federico Lombardi added that the white smoke signalling a pope has been elected will be produced by potassium chlorate, lactose and chloroform resin.

The energies of the moment have been increasingly high and taxing on our bodies, emotions and nervous system. This is also seen in the international public arena, with the increased tensions on the political and confrontational front.

This affects human psyche on many levels. First people negative emotions are easily triggered for the past few days. Secondly as people become more and more irritable and lack patience, they also find it difficult to deal with each other, however this will help us see ourselves through the other person’s behaviour.

Many of us feel extra tense, sensitive and tender around the area of the heart. Many of us now feel misunderstood by those who we once loved, such as friends, lovers and family.

Some of us also are finally seeing the bigger picture concerning those we had considered friends for some time, but were not sincere in their affection for us.

In short: this is a time of many fold changes, some of which are dramatically perceived, as our emotions are heightened. However, it is best to have a clear picture of the situation, even if it is a painful one at first.

Dear Ground Crew,

How are you doing? Has your life been in a little intense lately? We have been dealing with some challenging energies with Mercury Retrograde in Pisces that is bringing up a lot of emotions. It looks like after Mercury goes direct on the 18h of March things should start heating up. Have any of you felt like it has been challenging to focus and get much accomplished? We are also coming out of three days of the Dark Moon energies.  

It has felt “funky” as one of my friends described it. Did any of you feel sadness in your heart around the end of last week March 6-8th? I have talked with other Lightworkers who felt similarly. It might have been something happening with the Earth that we don’t know about. As Lightworkers we are not only sensitive to the Earth but we are clearing energies for the entire planet. Don’t you agree that Mother Earth needs it?

Our Earth needs our love, support and healing. There are some hot spots that require intense focus. These include Syria, Egypt, Israel, Palestine and North and South Korea and any other place where you feel called to focus. Prayers, love and Light are necessary for us to create the peace that we believe is our future. The future is now so let’s get with it, ground crew.
