Veteran’s Day: Magical Numbers, Military Spirituality

Veteran’s Day: Magical Numbers, Military Spirituality

“I will always place the mission first. I will never quit. I will never leave a fallen comrade.”~ Army Ethos/Soldiers Creed

Who does the last soldier standing in the fox-hole talk to when everyone else is dead or gone? What keeps soldiers confident and courageous when the enemy attacks? And, for whom do they truly fight and die? A constant thread is weaved throughout the founding fabric of the American Military. It begins with the Minutemen of 1776 and continues today. It is Red, White and Blue Spirituality. One of the 100 most influential people on the matters of defense, retired four-star General Gordon R. Sullivan, and author of Hope is not a Method, shares thoughts on this subject with us and says, “No man left behind has biblical overtones. Sacrificing yourself for your country is a spirituality in itself.”

We’ve all heard of Military blood and guts, but what about love, and angels? Is the concept of spirituality and army an oxymoron, or a God-given-gift of a different kind wrapped in honor and love? The answer may lie in how Guardian angels and soldiers seem to have a secret Morse code of numbers celebrated by privates and four-star generals every Veteran’s Day, November 11th; 11/11.

In this extremely rare video interview, General Sullivan, a tireless advocate for soldiers and their families, former Chief of Staff of the Army (the highest ranking army officer) from 1991-1995, and recipient of numerous awards and medals including the Purple Heart, Bronze Star, and recently the George Cattlett Marshall Medal shares insights and memories of heroic war stories and Native American Ceremonies on the battlefield concerning the seldom discussed topic of Spirituality in the Military.

1111 are special numbers in mathematics, spirituality, numerology, and the Armed Forces.

The ancient Greek philosopher and mathematician Pythagoras was first to establish that numbers hold vibrational properties and taught his students, known as Pythagoreans, how the entire universe is mathematically precise. The number 1111 is a sign of perfection.

According to New Age and Angel Experts like Doreen Virtue 1111 is the twin-flame angel-number used by angels to speak to us. Numerologists consider 1111 to be the master number of synchronicities.

Is it by coincidence that 1111 is also the date that signifies Veteran’s Day, originally called “Armistice Day,” which commemorates the signing of the armistice with Germany that ended World War I?

Veteran’s Day celebrates the life and death of every soldier which reflects the Army Ethos known as the Soldiers Creed, a promise to every warrior that they will not be left behind, dead or alive.

The heroic war stories shared by Gen. Gordon, including one exemplifying the soldiers creed between Civil War Generals William Tecumseh Sherman and Ulysses S. Grant, are riveting, but a particularly moving one is about a 90-year-old Penobscot American Indian from the 1st infantry division who returned to foreign beaches to perform a ceremonial ritual over buddies who died in 1944. Using stones, tobacco, smoke, and an eagle feather he releases and blesses their spirits. “I just had to do this for them before I died,” he tells General Gordon.

Military Spirituality is alive and well as told in morerecent war stories.

While under attack, Sergeant First Class Jared C. Monti of the 10th Mountain Division was determined not to leave a soldier behind. Sgt. Monti was mortally wounded crossing an open terrain through intense enemy fire during the third rescue attempt. He sacrificed his life to save his fellow soldiers.

Private First Class Ross A. McGinnis of C Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Infantry Division, was conducting combat control operations with his platoon. While manning the M2 .50-caliber Machine Gun, a grenade landed in the vehicle. Private McGinnis yelled, “Grenade!” alerting the four crew members. Then, rather than leaping to safety, he pinned the live grenade between his body and the vehicle, absorbing most of the explosion. Private McGinnis sacrificed his life to save his crew.

Specialist Ty M. Carter received a citation for gallantry and intrepidity while serving as a scout with Bravo Troop, 3d Squadron, 61st Cavalry Regiment, 4th Infantry Division. On the morning of October 3, 2009, at Combat Outpost Keating, in Kamdesh District, Afghanistan, he woke under attack on all sides by the enemy. Carter ran through a gauntlet of fire to reinforce a battle position and remained there isolated. With complete disregard for his own safety and wounds, he again ran through a hail of enemy rocket propelled grenades and machine gun fire to rescue a critically wounded comrade. SPC. Carter gave the fallen soldier first aid, carried him to cover, and returned still dripping blood, through the barrage of bullets to recover the squad’s radio deemed critical for the outpost defense and coordination and evacuation of injured soldiers. Specialist Ty M. Carter’s actions prevented enemy capture of the outpost and saved the lives of his fellow soldiers.

At this point, you may be asking, “Why! What were they thinking?”

Perhaps they weren’t. Might they be reacting to the needs of the people for whom they were truly fighting, the soldier beside them? They responded as a parent would to a fallen child lying in the street because the military is a family filled with love, devotion, and spirituality.

This may be a family love of a different kind but it is wrapped in a “spirituality worth dying for.”

“You don’t join the military for the money. God, No!” General Gordon says. “My pay check was about $200.oo a month when I joined. It’s a higher calling, even if they don’t realize it when they first sign up.” This is never truer than in our armed forces today. There is no draft. Service is a choice.

Another higher calling has gone to the dogs; real CHAMPS in every way.

General Gordon is the Chairman and Founder of the Marshall Legacy Institute, (MLT) a nonprofit to extend the vision of Nobel Peace Laureate George C. Marshall. Its arms embrace the Children Against Mines Program (CHAMPS) which promotes global citizenship, and involves the American youth and Mine Detection Dog Partnership Program (MDDPP) in meaningful learning projects to help mine-injured children in war-torn countries. It is designed to teach schoolchildren about the human consequences of landmines and how people and dogs are working together to make a better and safer world. Students safely explore the global landmine problem, and become part of the solution; a cause close to the heart of the late Princess Diana of England.

At a recent birthday party for Gen. Gordon, Airforce Brigadier General (ret.) Tony Schiavi defined leadership and Spirituality in the Military as, “ So the general consensus (no pun intended) is Spirituality in the Military is alive and well.

Veteran’s Day; 11/11. The angels have spoken. Are you listening?

Depression: An Opportune Message from Self

Depression: An Opportune Message from Self

Unfortunately, cancer and depression go together like peanut and butter. As a three-time   cancer survivor, severe bouts of depression presented a choice: take pills to alleviate it, or  face it and figure out what my body and psyche were saying.

cancerland

Depression is often a symptom, not an illness.

Alleviating the symptom may not cure the disorder. I saw my depression as something that would diminish if I faced and cured the cause. This is easier said than done. I considered suicide as a means of escape rather than facing my “ghosts.” However, deciding to see what lessons could be learned from the ghosts of my life was the first step toward a cure.

Looking back on difficult times allows us the opportunity to ask questions previously avoided such as,  “Why was I depressed? How did depression serve me and what did it teach me?” Our mind is incredibly powerful and will create or manifest situations to serve and save us.

Depression and illness can be a way of forcing us to slow down and “look within” at memories (old baggage), events (past and present cycles), people (relationships), and life- styles (habits) that are not to our benefit. Without depression, we may continue to accept whatever life throws at us—settling for less than we needed and/or deserved.

Just because something is thrown at us does not mean we have to catch it, hold, and keep it, including insults or negative relationships. We can choose to duck or move out of the way. And, if we do catch it, we can choose to drop it.Depression made me stop and reassess my life-choices.

I concluded that how people treat me is their Karma, how I respond is mine. 

Not all relationships or situations should be avoided or dropped. And that may be our most important lesson—the quickest way to change someone’s behavior is to change ours first. They must respond differently to the new behavior.

Depression can help us stop and reassess our life-choices.

Illness and depression are the perfect opportunity  to take time out for yourself. It can teach you how to respect, honor, and put yourself first, and to choose to change or walk away from bad habits, relationships, and situations.

Draw new boundaries with which you can live.

A friend once asked me, “How can I just quit my job or walk away from my relationship if that is what is depressing or killing me.”

Responding to her question with another question was the best answer. “Are you worried about letting down your job and relationship or yourself?  Will they survive tomorrow if you are not around? Will you thrive if they are gone? You cannot hold a gift if your hands are full. Put something down.”

Whenever we feel overwhelmed taking a step back can help us reassess our life. One of the first things we can do is “check our  inner baggage,” –the useless stuff we accumulated throughout life. You may be  surprised that you are bogged down with stuff which is not even yours.  Simply drop it.  It’s not yours to keep.

As a caring and loving person, it is so easy to take on other people’s emotional leftovers rather than respecting their right to carry it. By taking on the baggage of others we unintentionally take their learning experience and right to emotional growth away from them.

Old habits are hard to break. Keep working on them. 

We often think  if we carried someone else’s heavy troubles for them it would lighten their load. It doesn’t. It just makes ours heavier. That realization teaches a very difficult lesson—We cannot carry other people’s baggage or walk their path for them. We have to respect their life-lessons… to be learned by them… and our lesson may be to respect and love them enough to let them learn from their mistakes. We can offer them our shoulder but not our back. Let me explain.

There is a big difference between being supportive and being a mule. A supportive person lends a helping hand or a shoulder to cry on. A mule carries the weight of the world on their back while refusing to focus on their own life—this is avoidance. It only takes another challenge to be the straw that breaks their back and sends them spiraling into depression.

Our mind is a beautiful thing.

Experience has taught that we manifest not only what we want but also what we need. Sometimes we need to slow down and reassess our lives.

Depression served me in this capacity.

I didn’t enjoy it and would not choose to go through it again. However, by facing depression rather than suppressing it, I learned from it, used it to change my life, and ultimately survived life-threatening adversity and illness.

Bigfoot/Forest People: Multi-Dimensional Beings?

Bigfoot/Forest People: Multi-Dimensional Beings?

 

The Kat & Shiela Show (8/26/’16)

The weirdest things have happened during the retrograde that should have ended on September 22nd. Lights continue to flicker on and off, and anything that is mechanical or electronic is out of sync, like The Kat Kanavos Show, and the Kat and Sheila Shows.

Everyone looks like they are in a translated Japanese movie where actors lips move five seconds after you hear their words. But, scientists claim it is difficult to prove retrograde really affects electronics unless you are the recipient of the electronic scramble. There are other things in this world that are difficult to prove, yet many of us know they exist like Bigfoot.

Is Sasquatch real, folklore or mythology? This giant, elusive, bipedal humanoid and extremely hairy creature, roughly 2-3 meters or 6 foot 7 to 9 foot 10 inches in height, goes by many names depending on the part of the world in which it was seen. Have you seen a Wild Man? No, not the drunk one dancing beside you at the bar. The giant one in the forest.

The term sasquatch is an anglicized derivative of the Halkomelem word sásq’ets from the language of the various First Nations peoples in British Columbia. The Native American coast tribe known as Lhaq’temish,that means the People of the Sea, and governed by the Lummi Nation in western Washington State in the United States, refer to Sasquatch as Seatco, or the Ancient Ones.In Florida Big Foot is called Skunk Ape, and in Eastern Canada it is called Misaabe, in other forested areas of the United States it is called Hairy Man or Wild Man. And,all the descriptions of Sasquatch are surprisingly similar. Individuals who claim to have seen Bigfoot describe its “large eyes.”

Each language from a different area of the world had its own name for this allusive creature featured in the local legends. Many names described common actions it is said to perform likeEats Clams.” Could this be similar to the description often used by us to describe someone from the Northeast as “Meat and Potatoes” or someone from Wisconsin as a “Cheese Head?”

If scientists discount the existence of Bigfoot due to a lack of evidence, how can something with so many names, stretching back so many centuries, on so many continents except Antarctica, and in different places throughout the world be a fairytale, myth or imagination? And, where is the scientific evidence for angels or life after death?

During the Kat and Sheila Show, Sheila Sistar shares her personal experiences this past weekend at the International Psych and Spiritual Sasquatch Conference in North East Washington. This conference is home to real-life Bigfoot experiencers.During the show Sheila shares her amazing description of seeing an “Ancient One” as it cloaked and uncloaked in front of her.

What did she notice that most caught her attention? The eyes!And, the fog.

After listening to the show you decide if Bigfoot is a myth, imagination, or perhaps aMulti-dimensional Extraterrestrial, as some psychics have suggested. It might explain the lack of scientific evidence while begging more questions like, how does this ET phone home?

Life’s Callings are Kittens and Puppies? Yes!

Life’s Callings are Kittens and Puppies? Yes!

Never make your most important decisions when you are in your worst moods. Wait. Be patient. The storm will pass.The spring will come. ~ Robert H. Schuller.

 

Our mission or life purpose is much like kittens and puppies. They often choose us. Adjusting our life to accommodate these changes can be stormy, challenging, uncomfortable, and at times downright painful, but the lessons learned from the choices are a big part of our soul’s journey.

Dr. Terry Gordoknows a thing or two about storms because he has survived a few in his lifetime. Emotional tornadoes knocked him over but could not keep him down. Terry, as he prefers to be called, is a Hay House author who penned, “No Storm Lasts Forever, the forward of which is written by the late great Dr. Wayne Dyer.

One of Dr. Terry Gordon’s missions in life has been saving the lives of our most precious resource, our children. After the tragic cardiac death of Josh Miller, a 15 year old football player, Terry helped to raise funds to place automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in every junior and high school in his community. For his efforts, the American Heart Association named him the National Physician of the Year 2002. He is a retired Invasive Cardiologist, Akron General Medical Center in Akron, Ohio.

What is an AED and what do they do?

An AED is an Automated External Defibrillator. It restarts the heart once it has stopped beating. Heart attacks are not only for the elderly.They happen to children and young adults, too.

In the past few years, there have been more and more occurrences of students getting hit in the chest during sporting events and going into cardiac arrest. Although accidents do happen during sports a heart attack can be prevented if an AED is present and within reach at the event.

Had an AED been present at the time of Josh Miller’s football accident he might still be alive.

Josh Miller’s accident hit so close to home for Dr. Terry Gordon that he and his family raised enough money to place an AED in every school and every police car in his hometown.

AEDs are extremely necessary in police vehicles because police are usually the first people to reach an emergency scene.

“These AED devices in cop cars have already saved several lives, young and old.” Terry is proud to announce. However, Dr. Terry Gordon’s intentions are bigger than local. His next step is to take the AED to a national level.

“Might as well save as many lives as possible,” Terry says.

If you agree please help by sharing this article with your local schools, parents, police force and anyone who would like to see their loved ones live a long and prosperous life, because their future may only be one heartbeat away from an Automated External Defibrillator.

It is said that the fruit seldom falls far from the tree. This is never more evident than by the description written by Terry’s daughter of her father. Mattie-Rose is an experienced educator in grades Kindergarten through 12, so she has been involved in her father’s mission to save the lives of students. As an Executive Business Administrative Assistant, Mattie-Rose also knows the business side of making dreams come true. Mattie-Rose Gordon writes,

 “I have been blessed to have a father who has shown what it means to care and love for others so deeply. Cardiology was his profession but his genuine heart, his love, and the incredible strength my dad possesses; evident each time there’s a storm that comes his way and each time he takes the lessons he’s learned through his experience. He has taught me the most valuable lessons in my life, will always remain my hero, and will be the person I strive to be.”

 

As a physician who has dealt with life and death on a daily basis, Terry understands that life is precious and can change in an instant. He and his family experienced first-hand such a dramatic shift when his son Tyler was involved in an automobile accident, sustaining a severe spinal cord injury that has left him paralyzed.

When asked about his feelings concerning such tragedies in life Dr. Terry Gordon says, “I learned that when adversity comes our way, it is how we respond to the difficulty that determines who we become. Life experiences become calamities only if we make the conscious decision to make tragedies out of them. Rather than lamenting so-called adversities, we can choose to be grateful for them. We can embrace them and accept them as gifts from the Divine. They can provide fertile soil for growth and enlightenment.”

Dr. Terry Gordon led his family through the storm and the journey has resulted in a spiritual awakening to a clearer understanding of life, the truths it has to offer one of which is, no matter how big, how severe, or how painful, “No Storm Lasts Forever.”

Reflections of 9/11

This week we remembered 9/11. It was a week of sorrow and sadness that has been painful for many families and friends across America and the world. However, it is okay to be joyful in the face of grief. It will add a positive vibration that will create balance to the world.

Tarot Card for 9/11 and 9/12

Is Septemer 12th your birthday or that of your best friend, lover or boss? Kat and Sheila discuss 9/12’s The Queen of Wands and the significance of the black cat sitting at her feet looking at the audience. The sunflower in her hand signifies life and is on both the Queen of Clubs playing cards and Queen of Wands Tarot Cards.

 

 

If life is a game of cards have you ever wondered what the Tarot Card is for September 11th.? The card for 9/11 is the King of Wands. The King is facing to the left so his focus is on the past.

 

Dreams:

We may have heard of a Recurrent Dream. But, what does it mean when your dreams are all different but have a recurrent theme? It may mean your inner-guidance or spirit guide is telling you the same thing in different ways to be sure you get the message because it is important. Keep a dream journal beside your bed and write down anything you remember about your dreams to help you figure out the recurring message. Ask your spirit-guides or guardian angels to give you more guidance in the dream to help you understand it. What is the dream theme? What animals, colors or numbers did you see?

Answering these questions will help you connect understand your dreams, connect with inner-guidance and live a more fulfilled life.

Join us every Monday evening 4:00pm PT which is 7 EST for more Spiritual Tools for Everyday Living.

“Tears to Triumph” with Marianne Williamson

“Tears to Triumph” with Marianne Williamson

When we lose a limb we experience phantom body pain.  When we lose a part of our spirit we experience phantom soul pain. They both hurt!” Kathleen O’Keefe-Kanavos

marianne-williams-3

If you have “hit bottom” you are in a perfect place to begin again because there is nothing left to hold you back or keep you down. As cohost with Kelly Sullivan Walden of the radio show Dreams Unzipped it is my pleasure to discuss tips with you and share tales of Tears to Triumph offered by world-renowned guest Marianne Williamson.

When you were a child you may have had physical growing pains.  Expanding limbs can create cramps, and aches.  As adults, we forget that as long as there is life, there is growth even when the growing pains are of a different sort; emotional.

A child’s arms weighted down with precious toys are replaced by mature hearts overburdened with life.

We loved our childhood toys and when one disappeared we felt as though we had lost a piece of ourselves. A toy slept with and lost becomes so traumatic it may change sleep patterns. A lost adult relationship can do the same thing.

On the way to our adult “toy box” it is not unusual to lose something that brings us to tears. We suffer emotional phantom pain.  So, how can we move from tears to triumph?

Mirror therapy used to help alleviate phantom limb pain from amputation can be modified to reestablish a connection with self to find the lost pieces of our life.

Mirror Box Therapy is an occupational therapy invented by Vilayanur S. Ramachandran that is comprised of a mirror box in which two mirrors in the center (one facing each way) helps alleviate phantom limb pain, in which patients feel they still have an amputated limb.

How can similar therapies treat dissimilar ailments when one is physical and the other is emotional?

Modified Mirror therapy discussed in detail during the radio show is a method to find and reconnect with what is truly important in life- you. It is an emotional therapeutic technique to reassess your priorities. It is difficult to ignore yourself or embellish on the truth when you are looking yourself in the eye. What a great way to get to know yourself better.

When a part of our spirit is lost we experience phantom soul pain. Journaling is a means of measurement. How will you know how far you have improved if you don’t know where you are right now? You may be pleasantly surprised when you read your journal and discover you are improved.

Like Mirror Box therapy the goal of Modified Mirror therapy is to reestablish a connection with self through the windows of your soul; your eyes. Using any mirror accomplishes this goal and is easy enough to do daily in the privacy of your home.

The next time you look in the mirror while brushing your teeth, combing your hair or getting dressed take thirty-seconds to look deeply into your eyes. Then, ask and answer these three questions:

1.)    When was I the happiest in my life? When you feel joy from that memory of that moment you have found what was lost.

2.)    What can I do to reestablish that happiness in my life now? If you feel excitement from the question you are reestablishing the connection by formulating a plan.

3.)    How can I keep that joy safe? The answer to this question is an emotional protection mechanism. Once implemented it will help keep your love safe.

Ask your own questions. Modified mirror therapy is a bit like stepping through the Looking Glass into Alice’s Wonderland. If you look in the mirror and dare to ask, “How far down this darned rabbit hole filled with tears do I have to go?” Don’t be surprised if a voice from behind the windows of your soul answers, “How far down do you want to go? It’s your journey.”

The more truthful you are with yourself the quicker your will find your missing parts and the tears will turn to triumph.
