What Ifs: Genealogy, History, Genetics, Inbreeding and Sexual Anomalies?

I've been reading a lot of various topics about genetic anomalies and decided to put some things together that I've been mulling over. However, I want to emphasize that the things I mention below are not limited to any particular class or race, it's just a few examples I'm using, based on research, that had me scratching my head and wondering what if. 

First, through my genealogy research, I started, inadvertently, learning about history and genetics. I discovered that past royalty inbreeding or limited spouse availability, in earlier times, caused various genetic anomalies... some were often fatal... and these genes can show up down the line. 

Then, after reading about Queen Christina of Sweden being considered an intersex (formerly known as hermaphrodite) person, along with some thinking that the first Queen Elizabeth may have had male pseudohermaphroditism, I started wondering, what if inbreeding may have contributed to intersex people? Why not? Anything's possible. Right? 

I first heard about inbreeding through a 1966 movie called Hawaii. It had early 1800 missionaries explaining that siblings marrying, having sex, and murdering their deformed babies was a sin. To the Hawaiians, it was all normal. But afterwards, I began to learn that, since ancient times and with many civilizations, it was considered quite normal for royal siblings to marry and have children, including disposing of any which may have been seriously deformed. 

I guess they didn't know how to put two and two together, back then. However, time has shown us that there is definitely good science behind the laws that prohibit siblings from having children. The risk for passing down a genetic disease is much higher than with first cousins. 

As I continued researching, I read something about a Native American acceptance of a certain anomaly and wondered why. Was it done for a deeper meaning? For instance, what if newly instilled religious morals protected deformed babies from being murdered and then special names were created, for the afflicted, as compensation... to justify their deformities... a gift from God, so to speak. 

For example, the East India girl with four arms and legs being called a goddess instead of a conjoined twin. Or, in the case of Diodorus Siculus (1st Century BCE) who described Hermaphroditus as having a physical body of a man and woman and who was able to foretell future events. Again, special names and talents... as a gift from God... or stories created due to genetic anomalies? 

The reason I started wondering about this was because I discovered, while researching transgenders, that there are various culture names, which are used for people having confused genders (like "two spirit"), that have been around for eons. I wondered if it was possible that they may have had some form of deformed genitals or genetic anomaly, in the past, but murder wasn't an option and corrective surgery wasn't either. So, names were created to make them feel special... instead of an outcast in their small villages, tribes or communities. 

Also, I read that some of these past royal's "noticeable deformities" may have been overemphasized. It seemed plausible to me. Isn't that how some myths begin? A little bit of fact mixed with a lot of creative writing. But, what if some anomalies weren't physically noticeable? With all that inbreeding, could some have had sexual abnormalities, like an intersex person? Possibly kept a secret for any number of reasons. It may explain why some couldn't have children, which may be a blessing in disguise... removing bad blood. 

Yet, what if some royal children weren't from inbreeding and were actually produced via secret affairs and surrogates, in order for someone who was intersex to appear normal to the public or to produce normal children? After all, we know eons of deceit and hanky-panky ran rampant with some royalty, too. Maybe this too could have been a blessing in disguise... new blood. 

Anyway, this is only some of my what ifs. Hopefully, you can see why I was having them. I felt it was interesting enough to share, because I'm one who seeks answers in order to remove fears and prejudices. I just think it's amazing the things one discovers, and the questions that are provoked, because of genealogy questions, which often lead to various paths of research, like history and genetics. 

Gender Dysphoria?

I know this can be a very touchy subject with some people, but we are in an age where the saying "be yourself" has some taking that ideology to extremes. Maybe they have forgotten another saying: just because you can, doesn't mean you should. This is why I decided to share some things I've been mulling over regarding gender dysphoria. 

But first, this isn't to create any emotional meltdown. My reflections are only what I've been discerning/sensing for some time. I'm not being judgemental, but I do question and reason. Maybe more than I should. But, I only want to have answers to questions for my peace of mind, even if those answers could be metaphysical. It's up to others to find their answers... their peace. Could what I have discovered help? It helped me. Will it change anyone's mind? Only time will tell.

Anyway, I'm sure there's a lot to consider when it comes to someone's feelings, which oppose their physical biology. I've often questioned: is it really their feelings or are they being mind controlled, indoctrinated, or influenced, and, if so, by who and why? Because, I'm not too keen on people being used in any scientific experiment, especially when making extreme changes to their body in order to appease feelings. That's when I start asking questions. Something's not adding up.

What makes a person feel they're the opposite of what they were physically born with and want such a drastic plastic surgery operation? After all, it's not some miner physical enhancement, it's a major sexual or physical alteration. And, gender dysphoria should never be treated lightly, especially by parents, family or friends acting like wannabe psychologists. There is a high rate of suicide involved, especially among teens. Regret after surgery is also occurring. Many, many questions need to be asked by professionals to anyone experiencing any gender identity issues, especially before making major surgical decisions. 

To continue, and please bare with me, because this may be far out for some. Maybe one answer to these "feelings" is outside the physical. Recently, someone read about androgynous extraterrestrial beings and asked if they could have an affect on us, due to their soul energy, if they incarnated into a human. I said, absolutely, why not? It would be no different than a soul with a lot of male energy crossing over into a female body, or vice versa, which can create imbalance with a current life's mind. Maybe they didn't know enough to have some sort of help or they just decided to wing it. However, I feel it's become more of an out of control free for all, lately... a mental/physical war. 

Let me explain why I feel this way. Years ago, one of my metaphysical teachers taught me that the general understanding, eons ago, was to honor the physical being when incarnating into a new life. But as time went by, some had "crossed wires" with their soul emotions and physical forms. This confused them with their body, mind and soul connections: males acting feminine and vice versa. This, I was told, led to feelings of hurt and revenge when they started being harassed by others (as they still do today), leading to retaliation and self-destruction. 

As I told someone before, it's obvious to me that these people's souls are in conflict with their mind and body. We're all being bombarded by emotional energy daily and many are taking a beating over it. Instead of healing the mind, as we once have, we're accepting it at the cost of extreme body modifications (on what doctors would consider an average healthy body), along with the pain and suffering of that too. 

Of course, this line of reasoning is only about past life soul emotions causing current conflicts. I understand there are other things that can influence current behaviors. For instance, sexual and physical abuse, as a child and/or adult, along with those whys and wherefores. Some professionals are saying that it could even be the new culture influence of those rebelling against social constructs, which may also explain the rise in this area. But, regardless of the cause, when a person has gender dysphoria, or any form of dysphoria, they need professional counseling and not coddling or enabling from well-meaning or other dysphoric people. 

Which is why it's important for many questions to be asked by professionals. There are way too many various influences that can affect one's thoughts and emotions to do anything less. And, I know this is my opinion, but maybe the professionals should, seriously, seek and consider metaphysical answers too... things beyond the physical that may be affecting the physical. Because, also in my opinion, there are people who hastily, and often regrettably, jump on the proverbial bandwagon without deeper analysis to what may be really going on.  

My Life: Perspective - Realty

A long time ago, I had someone tell me that they were glad I shared so many various things about my life. I replied: Thanks, I have a purpose in doing that. After all, if you had an extraterrestrial contact, learned telepathy, and saw a UFO, you might want to tell people about it, but at the same time prove your sanity. 

And, I had an employer giving me some great advice back in the 80s. He told me that verbal doesn't cover your butt, put it in writing. For this reason, I decided to document and share some of my life's memories via various social media sites, and my true story books, for anyone interested. Additionally, I had a metaphysical teacher explain that by not sharing my worth, due to being in fear of people judging me, it would be me judging them instead. Hmmm...

Of course, you may ask: why bother proving anything? You see, I understand perspective. For instance, if someone only knew me during my youth or school days, or only through the eyes of my family and friends... if someone only knew me through one of my many occupations or through my various hobbies... if someone only knew me during my Navy or Business and Professional Women days... and yes, if someone only knew me through my metaphysical teachings, being contacted by an otherworldly metaphysical teacher, seeing a UFO, or my telekinetic attacks... that would be, in my opinion, a very limited perspective of my life. 

However, if they understood my complete life's journey, they would have an enhanced perspective. My reality may become their reality... with less judgments or assumptions. Of course, no guarantees, people may still judge me, regardless, and people may still get a different perspective of my memories. It happens. 

But, my hope that people may care to know more has been positively confirmed, because I've had people say: "Wow, I never knew that! You've had quite an interesting life. Thanks for sharing." This is why I will continue to share my perspective/reality of my journey and what I feel was/is important to me. So far, its been based on my strongest memories, often backed up with photos, dates, and places, or any other documentation that I can provide. Because, sadly, I also know how history can be written or rewritten with limited or deliberate false interpretations, and it appears to be getting worse. 

In addition, another reason that I decided to share some of my life's experiences or memories, besides proving my sanity, is because of my research on historical past lives. I discovered how past false or bias perceptions can often create a debilitating effect on one's current life... some people can hold grudges for a very, very long time. 

So, as you can see, based on all the aforementioned, there is a method to my madness. Hopefully, it will prevent being maligned over another's perspective. I say "hopefully" because I know that you can lead humans to knowledge, but you can't make them think... or believe.

Collective "Truth" That Isn't

Sometimes, I feel our planet is living in the story of the Emperor's New Clothes. If you haven't read it, you should. It teaches a very serious lesson about pride, vanity, and self-deception. It's about an entire kingdom that ignores the self-evident for fear of judgment.

This is what I see with some people trying to convince us that certain behavior is acceptable when deep down inside we know it lacks moral character or promotes mental issues. They may use things like passive aggressiveness, subtle brow-beating, name calling, and guilt-tripping. They want us to see what they see, or do what they do, so they can ease their conscience. Our heart says no, but many lack the courage to speak out.

In this story, people were convinced that the Emperor's fabric was so fine that it was invisible to stupid people. Not wanting to be considered stupid, the kingdom allowed themselves to be duped by this power of suggestion. It took the innocence and honesty of a child to call them out on it; one who saw the king was naked and didn't fear saying so.

This is what I've been seeing with the PC mentality that's escalated over the years. It is very controlling people telling others not to be judgmental in order to scam, swindle, or convince us that their fantasy is factual. Learn from the moral of this fable. Don't let fear get in the way of challenging anyone, including corrupt authorities, who promote a collective "truth" that isn't.

Internet Battles: Calm the Mind

There's plenty of opinionated, social-media, rhetoric, especially when it's political, which is stirring up a lot of vitriol. Some have noted that it's creating feelings of unrest worldwide. Here's a little advice to hopefully calm the mind. 

With any particular fervor, it would be prudent to take statements lightly. Do your own research. Know the facts/truth. Don't be a puppet. Don't be too fast to assume. Try not to be a hearsayer. Be part of the solution, not the problem. 

For instance, when it comes to politics, and their media supporters, we know there can be errs, and they can often err deliberately and deceitfully. Sometimes, politicians have selective or faulty memory, but, hopefully, there will be plenty of areas to fact-check outside of bias media. 

Avoid the temptation of sharing anything dishonestly mean and hateful. It may escalate this hostile energy being felt by all, as well as create a vindictive retaliation. If you share what you feel is the truth, hurt feelings are their responsibility. Also, avoid the pitfall of placing oneself on a self-indulgent pedestal, which may prevent conversing in a civilized manner. Deliberating seeking to persecute, torment, or intimidate may undermine believability. 

Learn to sense those who are being, intentionally, offensive or provocative, don't take the bait... ignore them. And, if you can sense someone baiting you, than you should also be able to sense when someone is giving educated information. Use your sixth sense wisely. Use your freedom of speech wisely. 

Lastly, ask yourself, often, if these internet battles are really worth the stress... worth your time? If so, a calm mind can often think more clearly. However, with current enforcement of certain social media rules, on removing accounts they deem as hateful, this may be a moot point.

Although, being calm, especially within a storm, is an accomplishment one should still aim to acquire. 

Morals

I was listening to this gentleman on TV about certain people lacking morals. He was referring to people entering countries illegally and all the countries involved, including us, who allow it.

A definition of morals is a person's standards of behavior or beliefs concerning what is and is not acceptable for them to do. It's principles concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behavior.

No one can tell me that we, depending on certain situations, don't have this within us all. Let me tell you why I feel this way with a little personal story. When I was younger, we had a rabbit that was innocently fed some poisonous flowers by one of my younger siblings. The rabbit died.

Here's were morals/morality comes into play. Knowing this was done, albeit innocently, taught us all a lesson: you don't feed any creature anything you want, because to do so could be harmful. However, knowing this, and still continuing to do so, is showing a lack of morals, virtue, integrity, decency, a code of conduct, or any name you wish to use to let you know you're doing something nafarious, whether it's through a lesson learned directly or indirectly. In some cases, it's even considered evil.

One would have to ask why someone is, continually, choosing a path they know in their heart is wrong, that can be, intentionally, harmful to another or others, unless there is a lack of morals. Breaking into another's country is just as immoral as breaking into another's home. It's iniquitous behavior and those who promote it are just as unscrupulous.

In other words, morals protect us and others from doing anything we want just because we feel like it.

ANGER

We all get angry, occasionally, we're only human. Anger, not to be confused with passion or drive, can occur when triggered with feelings of being threatened, frustrated, powerless, and, as Yoda told us, even fear. However, learning to channel anger into a positive direction can be a better strategy, because anger only begets more of the same.

One of the best ways to conquer anger is through education. Educated people tend to use a mediator, or court system, to fight their battles - whenever possible - leaving no body scars and, hopefully, less stress. If we don't like the outcome, we have the option of taking it to a higher court, or develop the attitude of better luck next time. Besides, knowledgeable people shouldn't have to fight (unless it's in self-defense of themselves or loved ones), because they know how to reason and compromise. 

But, we need to be reasoning with reasonable people for that to work. We have all types of people on this planet and not all are aware about self control, or better ways of communicating, no matter where they live. They are in that life-force that thinks the only way to win a battle is arm to arm combat - so to speak - butting heads like rams, etc. They are, generally, people who want to blow things up or have someone else do it for them. That's their ability to reason. 

As a final point, when we become more metaphysically aware, we learn that being in constant anger and hate may only hurt us more than our perceived enemy. Because, we will be sick and die due to the stress we have allowed to our bodies and minds. Remember, knowledge is power too, not just brute force. But, if force is necessary, may the force be with you. 😉 

Saving The World?

I often wonder if being too caring leads to controlling. Maybe that's why we get into wars, because we may be seen as interfering instead of helping. I don't mean never help; there are times of crisis and we should do all we can, and we have. I mean this attitude that many have that they need to save the world, yet it's crippling some because of it. 

Now and then, I think about this African woman, I watched on a video, who was yelling for America to stop helping Africa so much as it was making them weak. That they needed to learn to be more self sufficient. There are people who have research financial aid given to countries and say this is true. It has often crippled their economy. 

And then, there are commercials, which are created to tug at our heart strings, telling us to help those less fortunate. But are they? Do they want our help? Do they think they need help? Or is it to feed into another's fantasy instead? Possibly a money making scheme? Because we all know there's good and bad in everything.

Sometimes, I feel it's the haves projecting way too much onto the have nots. The philanthropists needing to save people. But, and I mean this seriously, do we have that right? Unless someone asks for help, do we have a right to change their way of life? Especially if their way of life isn't looked on by them as poor or deprived? It's just their way of life. They don't know any better. We implant that feeling onto them that it's bad. 

You see, I learned that as a child. I was happy with what I had. I didn't know it was supposed to be better. We didn't have a lot of money, but we were rich in things money couldn't buy. I was able to smile and appreciate my life until I grew older and saw myself in other's eyes. It was then that I felt like I was less because of their "poor you" attitude. I felt uncomfortable. I didn't like the, occasional, patronizing feeling I sensed. But, was it just me or did others feel the same? If they did, I could understand how this could, among other things, cause discord and resentment in some people being "saved."

Being a people watcher, most of my life, taught me never to assume. There are those who really need help and were gracious, but they had lines we shouldn't cross. It taught me that some people were perpetual users, abusing the kindest of others, and got angry when they were deprived of their freebies. And yes, as in my case, it taught me that some people don't think they're poor and need saving. They're often more happy and content in their simplicity then most of us are in our materialistic world. They may even think we're the ones that need saving.

Dream: Psychic Attachments

Strange dream this morning. It left me feeling it was a personal message not to sweat the small stuff.

I was trying to make plans for things and kept feeling doubt. Couldn't shake it off. Then I was sitting next to a very old man and telling him about my feelings, and he told me that he knew what was going on. I said, "maybe it's because of my own doubts or insecurities."

He said, "No, it's because of other's desires. You have too many strings attached to you. It's their strings of wishes and hopes for them. You're having these doubts because someone could be ill and may want you nearby. Or someone may be planning a trip. They may want to include you, but haven't told you, yet. Sometimes, it's someone in the universe giving you doubt about making plans because they know someone is getting ready to cross over and they want you nearby. See? Plenty of attachments being created to give you doubt."

I asked, "So, what do I do? If I stay I may begin to feel I'm being used. That I'm only serving another's needs."

He said, "Then set your priorities, make your plans the best you can. If it's meant to be, it will be. The flow can't always be about another unless you keep allowing it. Don't forget, even if someone gets ill or crosses over, their destiny is already seen. Do you think you can change that by not going anywhere?

I asked, "Can I?"

He asked, "Can you?"

I woke up wondering how many of my thoughts are attaching to other's plans and giving them doubt. Then I wondered about the demands on God and His council and wondered what they do if or when they want a vacation. Do they get one or are the demands (strings) too great on them to remove?

Then I chuckled and thought, I bet their scissors are huge.

Where Do You Draw The Line?

I was having a conversation with a friend last night about various medications. I mentioned that I can't blame people for doing whatever they can to have a better quality of life. But, this morning, I had a message in a dream about that. This man asked me: "where do you draw the line in someone pursuing their quality of life when that pursuit may harm another or others?"

Hmmm... deep.

It made me think of many areas. For instance, drug abuse for one. Drug pushers (legal or illegal) need drug addicts or drug dependency people. Or, prostitution, as another example. People are deprived of their quality of life in order to help another have what they want.

But the one major thing that came to mind is people arriving illegally into other countries, seeking a better quality of life, but are possible germ carriers, which may cause a pandemic in the country their fleeing to. What about those natives' quality of life? History has advised us of past pandemics. So, why are some promoting this illegal, mass-migration mentality?

Unless some actually want a pandemic to kill off millions of people like the 1918 pandemic. Population control? Think about it. We create vaccines, but then there is a scare put out about them. Then there's mass migration worldwide. What next? Another pandemic? Decreasing population worldwide?

This could be a flight of fancy of an over active mind. But, it could also be from someone observing and seeing things adding up. You see, if people are becoming obsessed about over population, and thoughts create our reality, will our thoughts create a mass de-population? Is that something the "behind the scenes" people may be doing today? Even unconsciously? After all, we're only creating a better quality of life - in the long run.

Yes, that was a very profound dream message. Where do you draw the line?
