awakening
The awakening has been ongoing for a while, but when I learned about the earth changes, it seemed to go at an exponential rate. Has anybody else had that? Certain things are no longer important. The changes i've made to my family's life style, more of an organic and holistic living than anyone would like in the city, has raised some eyebrows, recycling of furniture to use in the garden, and recycling furniture to use in the house has made my house a full one, with excellent furniture which has taken on a second lease on life. I've met up with several people who are service to other oriented, There aren't many but when they do come forward, it's like having a member of the family stepping into the fold.

- I've heard that it's not unusual to go through changes such as not being able to eat red meat when a person has awoken. I get sick if I eat red meat now. I hardly eat any chicken either, and my family seems to be fine following the same diet. it's not quite completely vegetarian. What are your experiences on awakening?

- I'm already enjoying the information I'm getting. A lot of useful hints etc.
What has changed thus far are the seasons. It's more like a spring day for the last month. We live in Saskatchewan, and althouh the mild temps are great at -16 to about -20 and then + 1 or 2 is great, but we normally have -25 to about -30 at this time of year. I haven't had to wear a winter coat. I've shovelled snow twice in five months. On Monday I also noted that Orions Belt was above my house which faces directly East, the week before that I noticed it was facing SW. I wasn't able to spot the big dipper this time around either. But, I've also noted my anxiety level and that of my family has increased as they become more aware of the changes taking place. Although we keep busy preparing and doing things for when the time comes, the anxiety level hasn't changed. Note though, there is no fear as such, just anxiety. Has anyone else experienced anxiety, specifically before an event such as an earthquake or some similar happening? I'd like to find out.

- I have noticed the moon rising in SE one evening and in the NE the next. The compass swing several times during the day. The same with the Big Dipper, it's in one position one evening and the next it's way over to the NE the next. the same with the sunsets this last summer, they seemed to have set at the same time for over a month, then when it was winter time, the sunset still didn't seem to happen when it was supposed to. It being dark normally at around 4 pm it tended to get dark at around 5 to 5:30 pm most evenings. Most unusual.
