In The Deep

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

What does lurk in the oceans? The blue planet as they call it, covered in varying depths of water, containing life, danger and various mysteries of our time and ones of a time before. With Myths, Monsters and Legends of the sea being as plentiful as the ones we have for land. Fairy Tales of the deep, where things like mermaids, Ningen and the kraken are said to be.

Of course, there are also legends of other lands that apparently used to inhabit where we just have ocean these days. Lemuria, Lumania or the Continent of Mu, strange islands as mentioned in Maps and Islands, An Island, Or Was It? and Atlantis? No, That Would Be Silly…

But as we know it today, with all our technological advances, radar, scanning and satellites, it seems that perhaps many have forgotten the ocean and what may down there. Thinking it’s all been discovered or revealed, that if there was anything important to know, that you would be taught it in schools, or the Television might tell you. Yet, much of isn’t even accessible, or at least that’s what we are told. We can skim the surface, and dip down to certain depths with submarines and cameras to try and give us a glimpse into what goes on down there.

The Bermuda Triangle has been an ongoing saga for my entire life I think, mentioned in The World Got Smaller with a different angle on its purpose. Yet now there is a another ‘conspiracy’ surrounding it, and that it’s a restricted zone for the rocket launches that never make it past the firmament, with that being their landing area.

There has also been talk of lights in the water or coming out of the water, for centuries now amongst sailors and peoples of the coast. More recently so with talk of USO’s and that information about them is being suppressed. And not just in the ocean, it’s been said of large bodies of water almost everywhere, which we know sometimes have their own local stories of monsters and strange occurrences. There are sunken cities and temples, structures of unknown civilisations or origins, remnants of what has been submerged at different times through different circumstances. With some already being lost forever, as on land, and others perhaps waiting to be revealed before they too are claimed by the elements and ‘progress’. And there is always the far-fetched theory that there is something else down there, perhaps a life form, or beings that haven’t made themselves known to the masses, yet…

More Than a Box

~ MKW Publishing ~ Leave a comment

A phone box, and what they represent other than just being there to facilitate the need or want to talk to someone else.

Bill & Ted – where they were given a phone box to use, dialling to when they wanted to travel. Like with most films and representations of time travel, there is a machine, a mechanism, and a point ‘in time’ for you to travel to, and in some cases, return from. As discussed in Somewhere in Time.

Doctor Who – as we all know, his ‘time machine’ was a ship of sorts, shaped as a phone box yet was much more. But it’s still a phone box to the eye, a deceptive cover for its real purpose? Or is that the point, that we look at a normal phone box and think nothing else of it, just seeing it as a basic form of communication now, overlooking it like so much else that ends up just being part of the background or what came before.

Harry Potter – a phone box, not quite in the same way as the others, as this was just used briefly to show a ‘secret entrance’ into the wizarding world in London. But still something that allows you go ‘between’ worlds, and an older style red phone box no less, perhaps meaning what used to be was more important than we think.

ET phone home – not a phone box, or even a telephone as we know it, but I thought of it as it was still use of an old-style analogue signal to communicate to ‘others’.

Superman – in the old school films, it was a thing that Clark Kent would leap into a phone box, and suddenly come out as Superman, where you would think it was just a convenient changing room, and maybe it was. But perhaps, maybe it wasn’t and was meant to be something more.

The Matrix – the hardline. The only way for them to get out once they were in, with a phone connection being the thing that connected them. If you could get to answer it in time. But the idea that our energy or consciousness is able to be transported somewhere else through the analogue signal is an interesting one. And because everything seems inverted these days, I realised that once you were out of the matrix it was rather grim and no one had any powers, so it made me wonder if it was another bait and switch. That it is actually within the matrix you have freedom, or can have freedom if you ‘free your mind’. As that is where they could instantly download information, had to be there to access the mainframe, had to be in there to change things. Just a thought.

Or it could be that we do end up getting ‘trapped’ by all these signals and frequencies, that our individual biofields are heavily swayed, influenced or just plain controlled by external triggers other than that of nature. People will have varying degrees of sensitivity, so I can understand why not everyone can feel the same changes or differences in certain places. We are a finely tuned instrument they say, and potentially connect to more than we are aware of, so Choose Your Thoughts Wisely as you go about your day, we get to check who’s calling or knocking when it’s a door or a phone, but we don’t seem quite as discerning when it comes to letting thoughts in…

What We Miss

~ MKW Publishing ~ 2 Comments

I understand and appreciate nostalgia, and have indulged now and again along the way like everyone else. Reminiscing of times past, good times, before times and when everything seemed and was different. Now we have more of a perspective on that than ever before, because things have changed so dramatically around us while so much looks the same. At the moment the country still stumbles on, people still go to work, shops are still open and people are going about their lives, because they have to. And I’m sure we have all looked back to simpler times in our lives, before we knew so much, before we had to pay bills and make our way in the world. Well, that psychological world has been turned upside down and inside out for some people, and rightly so, they are thinking back to when it wasn’t like this.

But, for people like me, it has always been slightly like this. Because when I think back to that simpler time, although it appeared to be as it was, something was still not quite right. Feeling that there was something else going on, that we were only given half or no truths, that corruption wasn’t on the side or running as a vague underbelly, it was the foundation and the keystone of everything holding ‘society’ together. As if what we see is just ‘the performance’ as you would being in the audience watching a play unfold on stage. Not seeing the set designers, the wardrobe and makeup department, the prepping, the pre-written script that has been so carefully rehearsed, you don’t get to see all that goes into getting it ready, or when it rolled out. Only seeing one aspect of it, perfectly presented and arranged for how they want it to be perceived. Often with twists and turns, shocks and laughter, to try and captivate an audience and keep them entertained. But not in a fun, amusement type of way anymore, where there is joy and cheer and people can come and go as they please.

More like the creepy movie theatre, where after the movie has finished, the doors are locked and once the lights come on you realise you are not where you thought you were. Instead, the paint is peeling, the chairs are collapsing and the crumbling ceiling no longer seems that it can old its own weight. And instead of characters to keep you occupied and distracted so you don’t notice, it’s now an empty stage with no lights and dazzle. Like the Green glasses of Oz get taken off and you see it as it is, now how it has been painted. So, although I may not like how it is now, I do not crave how it was before, because that wasn’t normal either, just a calmer more stable version of now. I guess that’s why they say that ignorance is bliss, because once you know, something psychologically adjusts, and there’s No Going Back…
