Prior to the 1900's we had few choices. Our environment was created by where we were born and who we were born to. Fate controlled our lives. Balance was maintained by accepting our fate. Our world was very small and comprehensible. But, since that time, our world has expanded immeasurably. Advances in education, transportation and the media have allowed all of us to be part of the same world. This is horribly fast progress to fully comprehend and adapt to. Much of the growth and change we are experiencing is not history repeating itself. Much of the growth and change is history being made.

Predictions about society in the twenty-first century from Kelling's 1983 appearance on The Diane Silke Show, TV Channel 35, Orlando, Fla. ( Also appear in Kelling's Book, "Of Love In Love"):

• "Men and women will have more androgynous and transitional roles and will exchange time off and time working ..."
• "Many will hold more than one degree or learn several trades and will have a variety of occupations in one life time... "
• "Most transportation will be above and below ground with highly sophisticated private planes being a main mode of transportation..."
• "Retirement and unemployment will not hold their current impact as we create transitional roles or jobs that suit a more mobile and integrated society..."
• "Teaching will gain recognition in terms of quality learning in all areas of life and pay accordingly..."
• "Work weeks will be cut by %30 or %40..."
• "A singular tax system will be worked on by the mid 1990's, with measured steps forword..."
• "By 2030 to 2040 there will be no wires for electrical currents, space and distance will be irrelevant and reception twenty times better..."

We are now exploring a larger universe and we have been thrown off balance. We now know that we have free will. We are learning how to use this free will to create a better world. This is not an easy process. This process of growth is difficult as it is based on immense pressure to change. Pressure is a factor that builds until balance is re-achieved.

"The universe is a mathematically controlled cosmic regularity..."
     Albert Einstein

Case Study: A client came to me because she had a recurring dream that her husband was nailing her in a coffin. In the dream she would jump out of the coffin and run down the street. Her husband would, then, grab her by the hair. Each time she awoke when he grabbed her hair. I asked if she wanted to get a job and he wanted her to be a housewife. She replied "yes" with a sigh of relief.

This dream is a classic, symbolic example of conflict in many relationships today. As the needs of one partner change the needs of the other partner are threatened. The relationship is thrown off balance. By understanding the unconscious thought and relationship dilemma, the dream assisted this person in better communicating and resolving the fears and needs of both partners. By addressing and resolving such issues, relationships will ultimately reach a new level of integration and balance.

Perspectives:

There is a need in society to demystify superficial values and come closer to universal truths. We can no longer afford the luxury of debating intellectual preferences of what the truth is. There is an element of truth within all societies, political movements, religious statements, social needs and individual problems. This element is basic to and necessary for healthy individual and group functioning.

Society has long functioned under a layer of dogmas or divisions which hold the individual thinking process in a state of confusion. The largest dogmas are political and religious. Then you have authorities under various branches of expertise, be it economic, social, medical or psychological. Within these 'select vocabularies' you have further dichotomies, biases and prejudices. It is a 'whole' being dissected from so many perspectives that it appears complex, competitive or separate in manner rather than simply relative or reflective. Everyone is psychic to some degree: When the mother hears the baby, before it cries, when you dream about someone or something and then it happens, this is the subconscious or higher self giving you cues or insights that assist and attune you to those you care about. The subconscious or higher self is a tool for problem solving and creative growth and is not limited to predicting the future. Telepathy, hypnosis and astraling are natural processes that everyone utilizes, with or without our conscious realization of such. By being conscious of these processes, we are more aware of our natural capacities to heal, share feelings and knowledge and, thus, enrich the experiences in our lives.

Today is history's turning point. There is no land left to conquer. The only thing left to conquer is ourselves. The understanding of inner and outer space is our future. Inner space includes our minds and our hearts. Outer space is our connection with the universe. We are on the threshold of understanding time and space in a way not previously thought of. We are about to understand the interacting energy fields within and around us, and our our power and place in a much larger, more vigorous universe.

Telepathy Experiment:

Involves two people in two separate places, the distance between them is not important. Choose a specific day and time each week for this experiment. For example, set aside Mondays at 5:00 p.m. From 5:00 p.m. until 5:10, one person sends a message, or the image of an object, and the other person receives the thought or image.

At 5:10, the receiver writes the object, pictures and/or message that come to mind. At 5:15 the roles are reversed in terms of who sends and who receives. The sender concentrates on a single thought, object, etc. In ten minutes, the sender lets go of the thought. The receiver simply clears his mind by allowing it to be an iridescent field of white energy. If this is too difficult initially, a mountain, stream or tranquil environment will quiet and 'open' the mind to incoming thought or pictures.

Keep a record of the images you receive. In a relatively short time, you may be surprised to find that time and space do not seem to interfere with the transference of thoughts and images, even at a great distance.

The value of such an unusual experiment? For some, just quieting the mind is important. The added value of knowing you are becoming more open to the feelings and thoughts of others and not just making judgement calls is an important part of developing deeper relationships and more sincere communication skills.

Excerpts from Zelo Magazine, "I PSYCHIC" article 1986, by Nance Kelling

"The process of psychic communication begins with reaching the alpha state, a centered state that is a quiet place within myself. This state enables me to be more open to the person with whom I am communicating. I let go of my ego and personal feelings and pick up on or 'read' their energy. I assimilate these feelings and impulses, not with the left brain process or linear thought, but by subliminal reception . . . Reading someone's aura, subconscious or electro-magnetic wavelengths is known as clairvoyance or precognition . . . I receive pictures, words and feelings in a holographic mode..." "My goals as a psychic are not as unusual as my perceptual abilities. As does anyone who sees life as a process of growth and evolution, rather than a protracted advance into age and decay, I work to develop my own and others' consciousness on many different levels. Accordingly, I believe reincarnation is a proven fact of life and consciousness an unending process of change, not a state that ends with this lifetime..." "...Modern society still has a primitive understanding of consciousness, although we have made great strides in the past two hundred years. The rise of scientific thought and methodology to intellectual dominance in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries caused a rift between science on the one hand and philosophy and religion on the other. Though Jung, Freud and the other early psychologists began repairing the schism, much work remains to be done in unifying our understanding of humanities role in and understanding of the universe. My work aims to help bridge that gap."
