13 Feet and Rising?

"It was unclear how Okumoto died.

The New York Times reported the leg was found in a section of British Columbia known as “king tides.”

Officials believed the strong currents could have brought the foot from Washington to Canada."

None of those news stories are very good signs for the future, but even if a head in the sand was found, would the rest of the world take any notice of the current rising crisis?

It looks like Chris Knowles has his finger on the pulse over at 'The Secret Sun' blog when it comes to The Siren.

Well, it's Monday morning here in Queensland and I need to grab my morning coffee, but don't worry I'm not heading for a Starbucks;-)

The Siren, the Lady Bird and Ash Wednesday/Valentine's Day?

And on Friday this also happened off the Western Australian coast -

Well-known skipper among two dead in yacht race tragedy
"Two sailors who died when their yacht capsized during a race off WA's coast have been named, with one a well-known veteran of the sport.
Skipper Robert Ralph Thomas, 70, and Paul Charles Owen, 60, were taking part in the 70th Bunbury and Return Ocean Race aboard the Finistere on Friday night.
The yacht was about 11 nautical miles south-west of Mandurah when it got into difficulty shortly before midnight with six people on board."

Hollywood Exorcist?

I had never heard of Rachel Stavis until I read this part of the post pictured above this morning at 'The Secret Sun' blog.
So, I did a net search and found the NPR podcast that seems to have started the media avalanche about Rachel's hobby -
Modern-day, non-denominational exorcist Rachel Stavis helps civilians, stars, studio heads

When I saw the photo of Rachel's guesthouse above from this link -
EXCLUSIVE: I've cast demons out of Oscar winners, politicians and movie bosses - The Exorcist is basically TRUE, says Hollywood's 'sister of darkness' as she shows DailyMailTV how she does it
I was amazed how much my home and her guesthouse had in common with similar decorations when I saw her Balinese mask on the wall.

All of these things and others around my home are there on an intuitive level to keep negative energy out of my home, even if it is just on a personal mental level to feel safe from whatever could be lurking in the ether.

And I'm probably less into Christianity than Rachel is.

Since we had a similar taste in interior decorating, I decided to check out some podcasts Rachel was on -

Episode: Exorcist Rachel Stavis

'Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark'

I like how Rachel said that she calls the low entities "Clives" based on Clive Barker drawings and that others look like the figures in 'Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark' books.

I'm not someone who believes in hell and I don't really like the word demon, I prefer the words evil entities.

I couldn't help thinking of the movie 'Odd Thomas' and the eerie death of Anton Yelchin -
The Deeply Odd Synchromystic Life and Death of Anton Yelchin

I can't help but think that maybe Rachel is what she claims to be ... an exorcist.
