Electricity is a mysterious entity which surrounds us, apparently operates everything, including us. Science is making slow progress in understanding and control it. It was not until the discovery of subatomic particles a little over a hundred years ago, that we even began to learn how it works. Electricity is something we don't usually think about until we don't have it. We just flip the light switch, turn on the television or the video games and expect them to work, just like we expect our brains to function on demand. Electricity seems to be several different things at the same time, is apparently both matter and energy. If you consult the experts, you come up with a variety of confusing answers: electricity is a fundamental property of matter, so in order to create electricity, we have to create matter, which is impossible. It's thought to be a type of low-frequency radio wave which is made of protons, but travels at the speed of light. The ancient Greeks, originally those near the city of Magnesia, and also the early Chinese knew about strange and rare stones (possibly chunks of iron ore struck by lightning) with the power to attract iron. In physics, magnetism is one of the phenomena by which materials exert attractive and repulsive forces on other materials, because every magnet contains two distinct regions, one known as the north pole and one, the south pole. Magnetism arises whenever electrically charged particles are in motion—such as the movement of electrons in an electric current passing through a wire or conductor.. An electric generator is a device used to convert mechanical energy into electrical energy, based on the principle of "electromagnetic induction" discovered in 1831 by Michael Faraday, who discovered that if an electric conductor, like a copper wire, is moved through a magnetic field, electric current will flow (be induced) in the conductor. So the mechanical energy of the moving wire is converted into the electric energy of the current that flows in the wire. The Earth’s core consists of an inner solid core which is surrounded by an outer liquid core approx. 3,000 km below our feet. Both the liquid core and the solid core consist primarily of iron and nickel, and it is the movements in the outer liquid part of the Earth’s core which create the Earth’s magnetic field, like a generator without wires. The Earth's surface, the atmosphere and the ionosphere, together are known as the global atmospheric electrical circuit. There is always free electricity in the air and in the clouds, which acts by induction on the earth and electromagnetic devices, which is sometimes negative and sometimes positive, but most generally positive, and the intensity of this free electricity is greater in the middle of the day than at morning or night and is greater in winter than in summer. In fine weather, the potential increases with altitude at about 30 volts per foot (100 V/m). So, for a six foot human that is a potential of about 180 volts between the head and feet. The atmosphere contains electricity of an opposite kind to that of the Earth. Different layers, or strata, of the atmosphere, located at only small distances from each other, are frequently found to be in different electric states of enormous voltages that disrupts the air and produces the phenomena of lightning. This is due to the condensation of the watery vapor forming the clouds; each minute drop, as it moves through the air, collects upon its surface a certain amount of free electricity. Then, as these tiny drops coalesce into larger drops, with a corresponding decrease in the relative surface exposed, the electric potential rises until it overcomes the resisting power of the air. If the quantity of water that is condensed in and subsequently precipitated from a cloud is known, then the total energy of a thunderstorm can be calculated. In an average thunderstorm, the energy released amounts to about 10,000,000 kilowatt-hours (3.6×1013 joule), which is equivalent to a 20-kiloton nuclear warhead. A large, severe thunderstorm might be 10 to 100 times more energetic. Energies moving through the earth along the magnetic fields from inner earth creates huge energy fields. The earth's magnetic poles emanate energy fields following the magnetic poles have a vibration ranging from very high frequencies, down to lower frequencies, which can sometimes come within the range of human sight -- Aurora Borealis, which is made when storms on the the sun form solar winds, or large streams of charged particles streaming toward the earth. These streams should have upward of ten million megawatts of electrical power. The electrical power of Aurora Borealis is enormous. The total energy radiated by the Sun averages 383 billion trillion kilowatts, the equivalent of the energy generated by 100 billion tons of TNT exploding each and every second. As early as 1919, Larmor put forward the hypothesis that the Sun's magnetic field is generated by a "dynamo" effect, in other words by the movement of a fluid that conducts electricity. Because of their highly chaotic (turbulent) nature, the analysis of geophysical and astrophysical flows is beyond the current capacities of numerical simulations, and, until now, has thwarted all attempts at a theoretical approach. We know that so much electrical energy emanates from the sun that nuclear electromagnetic pulses, as well as the DC-like currents induced by a large solar super storm, are likely to overheat thousands of transformers that are connected to long wires, which could knock out the backbone of our digital civilization, taking power grids, satellites and other communications systems offline for hours, possibly even days. The Sun's electromagnetic rays ionizes the particulate matter of the ionosphere which remains ionized throughout the shadow of night and develops broadband and long wavelength Radio Frequency energy. The ionosphere reflects RF energy and produces multiple echoes (resonance). Most of the astrophysical objects which surround us (planets, stars and galaxies) have a magnetic field which interacts with planetary neighbors. Such magnetic fields can play a major role in the evolution of various structures throughout the Universe. The Earth's magnetic field, which is apparently caused by the movement of liquid iron in the core, not only makes compass needles point north, but also protects us from the harmful effects of cosmic rays and the solar wind. Recently, a planet has been located with a magnetic field which is apparently transferring energy to the star's chromosphere.

Compared to these enormous stellar and planetary voltages, the currents within the human body are small and more subtle and complex. Your body is composed of trillions of cells which are generating electricity. You are something like a powerful portable, battery operated computer. Your digestive system takes the electrolytes out of the food you consume, and your cells use sodium and potassium to generate and store electricity. Your nervous system is a sort of electrical matrix that is programmed to allow you to navigate through time and space. Human electricity creates human magnetism and electromagnetic energy waves. Nerve impulses travel through the nervous system and brain and are human electricity created by chemical processes in the body. The nervous system is a network of billions of nerve cells called neurons with around 100 billion neurons in the brain itself. Apparently. consciousness arises from or is a part of the electric current system in the brain. The subconscious can process about 90 percent more data than the conscious mind, so it is usually in charge. And the emotions can also override the conscious mind, so the intelligent thing is to avoid mismanaged expectations, using whatever tools you can find. Humans have an energy field similar to the earth's magnetic field as a kind of aura, as can be found on many living beings. The human has an aura seems to be a representation of magnetic fields of the human body that emanate above the head, and from the various energy points of the body known as marmas and chakras, which is a Sanskrit term meaning wheel or disc. In this tradition, energy moves through the aura through millions of tiny streams of energy called “nadis”. (Nadi is a Sanskrit word from the root “nad” meaning movement.) The nadis are an intricate and extensive network of fluid energies, and are involved in absolutely every structure and activity of the human body. They underlie the functioning of the nervous system. A subtle body is one of a series of psycho-spiritual constituents of living beings, according to various esoteric, occult, and mystical teachings. The subtle body corresponds to our internal sky, which is subject to the laws of karma and astrology. The art and science of astrology, which bridges the ancient and modern worlds, is a very problematic subject. On the one hand, it has been justly castigated by modern scientists as a throwback to superstitious thinking. And it is a topic where a great many people with very little knowledge pretending to be experts. On the other hand, it is an expression of humanity's perennial yearning for a comprehensive understanding of our unity with the cosmos. Very likely there is much more to astrology than has yet been discovered. As science inevitably discovers more about the electromagnetic nature of the universe, subtle energies, chi and alternative medicine, electromagnetic brainwaves, nanotechnology, and quantum reality. It seems reasonable to expect that astrology the New Age should prove to be very interesting. In the antique cultures, only a few very wealthy or powerful people could have the benefits of an good astrologer as it was a very specialized and time consuming procedure. But since the processes has been computerized anyone can get a print out of the relationships between the planets at a given time and place of birth. But the interpretation is another matter. A good Natal Horoscope explains the basics of how your matrix is programmed. It is a bit like looking at a computer's hard drive just to know the arrangement of folders and files. Try to get the big picture of the effects of the large slow moving planets. Another way to think of it as having a map of a territory where you will be traveling. A simple approach is to study how the moon changes signs about every 2 1/2 days, and has regular monthly and yearly cycles, so it isn't all that complicated to follow a moon sign booklet until you learn what to expect. For example, the administrators of public institutions in large cities often learn that certain full moons require staff to be temporarily increased, especially in hospitals and jails. So there are a few old, proven techniques to help stay centered and balanced. Probably the most useful are some sort of meditation and mindfulness. These often employ breathing techniques. If you have used a wood burning stove, you probably learned to adjust the air intake vent to control how fast the fuel is consumed. Breathing techniques are do much the same. Hyperventilating breaths deliver a burst of oxygen to the brain to sharpen the attention to mindfulness, then a deep slow breath slows down the brainwave pattern from beta, to alpha, and with some skill you can move into delta, also known as the hypnagogic state, where there is more access into the subconscious mind. These are some ways to work with psychological issues and problems. The most universal such problem is bad programming (garbage in, garbage out). For example, being made to feel as a child that you are not good enough, is without doubt one of the all time greatest challenges of our species. By quietening the mind and emotions you also can step back and begin to gain subtlety -- synthesis and interpretation (overview) of the issues overloading the conscious mind and your overall tolerances for stress. If you think of your physical existence as the sum of all your electromagnetic vibrations, then you might think of your consciousness as the sum of all your attention and intention. Whatever your vibrations are is what you will attract, according to The Law of Attraction. But the fact is that approach and avoidance is mostly subconscious, so whatever or whomever you may may think you really want, your subconscious agenda may be that you are somehow unworthy.

The Subconscious Mind
Understanding how the brain works gives us insight into what makes us human. But there are long-standing mysteries about the mind-body connection, the brain, and consciousness. The subconscious mind is very powerful. A lot of progress has been made recently about the understanding and use of this power. The Law of Attraction is a metaphysical belief that "like attracts like", that positive and negative thinking bring about positive and negative physical results, respectively. Basically, there are three steps to achieving conscious and subconscious alignment and shifting your subconscious mind away from any negative habits or roadblocks that are stopping you making improvement in your life: Visualization, Emotion, and Repetition. The Secret is a wildly popular film and book that gained recent attention in the media. It is based on the Law of Attraction and is more of a video seminar, a presentation featuring a series of authors, philosophers, doctors, quantum physicists such as Bob Proctor, Joe Vitale, and Michael Beckwith. Bob Proctor is one of the most sought-after speakers in the world for professional coaching and company seminars and a teacher. Proctor is considered one of the living masters and teachers of Ways to Improve Your Life using your subconscious mind. Dr. Joe Vitale ("Mr. Fire!") is about attracting money, health, success, happiness, marketing, publicity, selling, hypnosis, copywriting, books, fitness, metaphysics, and more using the power of The Law of Attraction. One of his techniques is about using a mirror. In short, you stand before a mirror big enough to see your face and torso, stare into your eyes, and then speak out loud about what you want to have, do, or be. You give yourself the pep talk of all time. You reprogram your mind with your voice and your own authority. Michael Beckwith is a New Thought minister, author, and founder of the Agape International Spiritual Center in Culver City, California. His inspiring teachings have been empowering spiritual seekers for more than two decades. His talks on Spiritual Liberation show how prayers are answered when the individual's subconscious mind responds to the mental picture or thought in his or her mind. Mindfulness is an ancient, time-tested, and still modern antidote to so many of our problems because mindfulness is a way to train and harmonize mental activity and it can be used to reduce stress and increase concentration. Mindfulness meditation aims to allow you to create a compassionate relationship with yourself, by eliminating self criticism and recognizing persist negative thoughts. By allowing yourself to become a passive observer of your own inner events, you can become aware of automatic responses in behavior or thinking. The basic vipassana technique is simply to become aware of what is happening in your body and in your mind from moment to moment, simply to observe, to allow what is happening to happen, without making any value judgments about whether it is good or bad. The goal is to observe, not to try to influence or alter anything. But this can help gain insight into the mental sources of negativity, most of which is subconscious. It is not a religion and shouldn't interfere with religious practices. Philosopher and scientist Dan Dennett argues that human consciousness and free will are the result of physical processes and are not what we traditionally think they are. His 2003 book Freedom Evolves explores the way our brains have evolved to give us the kind of freedom that matters, while 2006's Breaking the Spell examines religious belief through the lens of biology. Lynne McTaggart is a best-selling author, researcher, and lecturer whose work has rightly been described as a bridge between science and spirituality. She teaches what she calls Living the Field, which offers a bridge between science and the spirit. The programs are designed to help people incorporate new science discoveries into a coherent plan for modern integrated living. Quantum Consciousness holds that, "All matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration. We are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively.... life is a dream, and we're the imagination of ourselves." -Bill Hicks Also, recent advances in cellular science are heralding an important evolutionary turning point. For almost fifty years we have held the illusion that our health and fate were preprogrammed in our genes, a concept referred to as genetic determinacy. Though mass consciousness is currently imbued with the belief that the character of one's life is genetically predetermined, a radically new understanding is unfolding at the leading edge of science. Cellular biologists now recognize that the environment, the external universe and our internal physiology, and more importantly, our perception of the environment, directly controls the activity of our genes. Cellular consciousness is the molecular mechanisms by which environmental awareness interfaces genetic regulation and guides organismal evolution. Summary What you set your intention for becomes what receives your attention. When you are energetically and emotionally aligned manifestation occurs within the parameters of your intention. But when you are not aligned with your intention, because your thoughts and beliefs have not yet been integrated to allow yourself to be at the energy of what you wish to manifest, there is no flow and the process is frustrating and disappointing. This is because your attention is displacing energy from your intention.
