Saturday into Sunday meows, my beautifulest and boldest KitKats... oh, the days slip past so fast, so amazingly past... and the Kougaress’s mind is worn to a frazzle, or she would have come up with a better description... another wonderful Fall day, however, the tame prairie does need some soaking-in rain... so, please, oh Divine. Lifeline and Lightline... this was said by an obviously highly spiritual woman, who called in on last night’s Coast to Coast am radio show. It felt uplifting to listen to her speak her awareness since she is in touch with the AWAKENING at such a deep level. With the veil between the worlds basically dissolved at this point in time, and with All Hallow’s Eve about a month and a half away, the energy connection between the worlds will strengthen, so don’t be too surprised if paranormal phenomena increases dramatically. ~~~~~~
Authoress news and mews ~ From the Kougar’s Writing Den ~ White Fang, Ace Reporter *Unedited Six Sentence* progress on the latest WIP novella... a bit rough, but... Chapter Eleven ~ The Wolf Slipped His LeashWhite Fang watched her assess him, even as her half-lidded, jewel-green eyes seduced the hell out of him. When her eyes became crystalline, he knew she was about to speak her innermost truth. “I seek no rescue, as a damsel in distress. I suppose, yes, I seek rescue from my sorrow. Although, revenge will not ease that place in my heart.” “No, there are places in the heart that will never be eased.”AND... Goodness, big-project meows, this Big Cat author spent a good part of the day organizing her computer files for RED LIONESS TAMED, and formatting. She has ideas for the second book in one file, and several other files. Plus, she has several flashes written between her heroine, Sun Rocket, and the hero, Draxen... and an interview with Sun Rocket. It was all sort of organized, but not in the way needed, that is, if the Kougar can ever get the next sequel written... which, she would adore doing because the first book was such a fun story to write. ~~~

From Astrology.com ~ Planetary Pile-up!First you'll seek out fairness, but hit delays; then, you'll have new opportunities, but find them unsettling. Next, you'll speak without thought, but potentially clear the air; soon after that, you'll enjoy new romantic beginnings, or start old relationships afresh; and then, more romance, but no fireworks. At long last, you'll wonder what all this to-and-fro was, and you'll finally push forward. Quite a lot of activity for a mere six-day period!So what exactly is going on in the stars that's taking your life in seemingly every possible direction?This flurry of cosmic activity starts on September 25, when Mercury joins the Sun in Libra. Justice will become so important that you'll agonize over every aspect of a situation before reaching a conclusion.The next day, September 26, Uranus turns things upside down when it opposes the Sun. This transit will bring lots of new opportunities, but nevertheless, certain aspects of your life will get a severe shake-up.Then on September 27, Mercury feels the power of Uranus' opposition, prompting you to say what's on your mind with no regard for consequence. Be careful: The right words will clear the air ... and the wrong ones will only make things worse.Fortunately, the new Moon in Libra on September 27 gives you a chance to renew your relationships -- and hopefully prevent bridge-burning. After a day of cosmic rest, Venus practically falls into Saturn's lap on September 29. Though not necessarily passionate, this pair can be great for long-term relationships.Finally, on September 30, the Sun and Mars converge to offer you the motivation you need to kick yourself into high gear. No more dithering -- it's time to finalize your plans and move forward with conviction!~~~~~~

Race Cars ~ An Endangered Species ... you can’t make this stuff up, my darling Big Cats... oh yes, the to-be-built race track in Austin, Texas has been declared an environmental sanctuary... of course, making it eligible for all sorts of financial perks that is funded by you, the taxpayers. Gee, the Kougaress didn’t realize race cars were an endangered species. When did that happen? Nothing against race cars. This Big Cat has a wild love of their speed and power... their ultra sleek lines. When she had her own little sport model car... hell, she had a real good time without being ‘too’ irresponsible. Gosh, if she’d only known they would become an endangered species, she might have managed to keep the fun car critter, and had her place declared an environmental sanctuary deserving of the taxpayer’s dollars. ~~~~~~
Big Cat by-the-numbers ~ 2:12 am... 4:44 am... 5:55 am... 4:44 pm... Weekly Angelic Forecast from Volcano Straight from the Carnal Cherub himself...Angelic Forecast ~ #150 For the next week, and several weeks afterward, there will be an even greater rise in the demand for freedom. At this time, ‘voices in the wilderness’ will come to the fore. Those in the KNOW who have been ignored in the past, will begin to take center stage. Because of this the media empires will be seen as the Deceivers in the future. Eventually, they will become laughingstocks to much of humanity. At this point in history, it is crucial to get out of the major cities before Fall, or have a means of quick departure. Unless you and other good folks are able to take over the local government, those who are corrupt are likely to do the unspeakable. There are so many evil forces at work, it will be difficult to deal with everything about to come down in many major cities. However, Divine Intervention, is more than possible, but can only occur if there are enough individuals who desire it, and call forth the Good. As the behind-the-scenes civil war heats up, the clashes will hit the news, but be spun in a manner that conceals the truth. From this point forward, any headline news story will likely be used to gain control of the people, and keep everyone in a state of constant confusion. The Bad Guys, THOSE who serve the dark side, are making their last moves. Think every horror and disaster movie you’ve ever seen, and the ones that are yet to be released. That is their intention for humanity. This is happening in the face of the AWAKENING. Everyday, our world brightens with the tremendous force and speed of humanity’s rise toward our highest potential. On the horizon is a smackdown of biblical proportions. Good vs Evil. For the following week there will be huge blowback against the evildoers who despise humanity. However, it will be difficult to see this play out because any coverage will be kept low key, and the blame shifted -- the script rewritten to suit their version of reality. The dynamics of the coming week have not fully formed. There’s a push-pull of events, and only ‘possibilities’ in some key arenas. However, the takedown of the economy by the international bankster-gangsters will continue. While, in the background, there are folks who are creating their own viable local economies. Currently, there are several operational new energy modalities that are only available to those in the know, and by word of mouth. Be on the look out, and take advantage if you are able. On the flip side, the hucksters are out in force. So buyer beware. Trendwise, there will be a substantial shift in the direction of the planet, as a whole, this coming week. To know what will be your best moves, keep an eagle eye out, and look below the surface of events. That’s where you’ll find the best fishing for ideas. Also, fashion trends will take another leap toward the practical, whether urban, suburban, or rural. Take an extra moment to hug those you love.

Darling Big Cats, be careful out there. Nearly everything about the mortgage industry these days is fraudulent. Nothing will change, except that it will get much worse, and big brother gov will likely attempt to look like the savior... yeah, right. If that occurs the consequences will be at least TEN times worse for all of us. AP Exclusive: Mortgage 'robo-signing' goes on July 18, 2011 By MICHELLE CONLIN - AP Business Writers,PALLAVI GOGOI - AP Business WritersMortgage industry employees are still signing documents they haven't read and using fake signatures more than eight months after big banks and mortgage companies promised to stop the illegal practices that led to a nationwide halt of home foreclosures.County officials in at least three states say they have received thousands of mortgage documents with questionable signatures since last fall, suggesting that the practices, known collectively as "robo-signing," remain widespread in the industry.The documents have come from several companies that process mortgage paperwork, and have been filed on behalf of several major banks. One name, "Linda Green," was signed almost two dozen different ways.Lenders say they are working with regulators to fix the problem but cannot explain why it has persisted.Last fall, the nation's largest banks and mortgage lenders, including JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and an arm of Goldman Sachs, suspended foreclosures while they investigated how corners were cut to keep pace with the crush of foreclosure paperwork.Critics say the new findings point to a systemic problem with the paperwork involved in home mortgages and titles. And they say it shows that banks and mortgage processors haven't acted aggressively enough to put an end to widespread document fraud in the mortgage industry."Robo-signing is not even close to over," says Curtis Hertel, the recorder of deeds in Ingham County, Mich., which includes Lansing. "It's still an epidemic." More at ~ news.yahoo.com ~ ~~~~~~

Yes, kitties and kiddies, it is global warming... however, not the kind of global warming made popular by THOSE who want to steal our money for so-called carbon taxes that will do absolutely nothing to save the Earth, and will do everything to line their pockets, and ruin our lives. While that is a downright cruel scam being perpetrated against humanity, yes, in these time, the weather is a-changing, and it’s changing big time. Our sun is being influenced and changed by new galactic forces, and by incoming celestial objects. Earth is moving closer to the center of the galaxy. And, since the sun is the primary driver of the weather on Earth... well, there are more changes on the way, and a lot of them won’t be pretty. Also, the inside scuttlebutt is that there is a covert weather war going on... so, hang onto your hats and tails, my darlings! And prepare. ~~~

Christmas Songs in July ... out of yesterdays wonderful ‘Christmas in July’ blog by Celia Yeary at HAPPILY EVER AFTER, this Big Cat got to thinking... yes, a dangerous activity in today’s clime, it seems. As Celia put it: ‘we had a little party’ with our childhood memories. A coming together in heart, mind and spirit... so, then the Kougaress had her lightbulb moment. What the world needs now is Christmas songs. What if we were singing Christmas songs together? Or, not to be particularly religious, what if we were singing any type of songs we had in common? That is, what if we, as humanity, were joined in song? Would we be fighting? Would we let wars happen? No matter the provocation by the big corp profit mongers. Consider the following historical example that instantly sprang to mind. Of course, after this occurred the big mucky-mucks of war made this behavior criminal. Why? Courtesy of ~ history.com/this-day-in-history/enemies-exchange-christmas-greetingsOn and around Christmas Day 1914, the sounds of rifles firing and shells exploding fade in a number of places along the Western Front in favor of holiday celebrations in the trenches and gestures of goodwill between enemies.Starting on Christmas Eve, many German and British troops sang Christmas carols to each other across the lines, and at certain points the Allied soldiers even heard brass bands joining the Germans in their joyous singing.At the first light of dawn on Christmas Day, some German soldiers emerged from their trenches and approached the Allied lines across no-man's-land, calling out "Merry Christmas" in their enemies' native tongues. At first, the Allied soldiers feared it was a trick, but seeing the Germans unarmed they climbed out of their trenches and shook hands with the enemy soldiers. The men exchanged presents of cigarettes and plum puddings and sang carols and songs. ~~~~~~

From UNKNOWN COUNTRY ~ Want to keep your man? CUDDLE with him!Tuesday, July 12, 2011It doesn't matter how old he is, cuddling and caressing are important ingredients for long-term relationship satisfaction and (surprise!) they are MORE important for men! Also contrary to expectations of researchers, men were more likely to report being happy in their relationship, while women were more likely to report being satisfied with their sexual relationship.The couples studied, more than 1,000 from the United States, Brazil, Germany, Japan and Spain, were together an average 25 years. Researcher Julia Heiman says, "You hear repeated research and commentary about divorce; but it's important to note that though divorce rates are high in the U.S., couples tend to stay married--more than 50% of U.S. couples remain in their first marriage, and that number goes up to 90% in Spain. We know from other research that being in a long-term relationship has some value to health. Perhaps we can learn more about what makes relationships both sustainable and happy."More at ~ news.yahoo.com/cuddling-caressing-more-important-men-study-184812911.html~~~~~~

Simply Love What We Do... Ya know, this came home to the Kougaress after she read the following blog. Imagine, if a lot of us transitioned mentally from the whole game of grabbing the brass ring, and of being ‘overly’ competitive, to a state of mind where we *simply love what we do*. Yes, this is along the lines of ‘doing what you love’ and ‘living your passion’. However, this Big Cat believes this ah-ha realization is a step closer to the soul, to our true human potential. Now, of course, there’s nothing wrong with competition, unless it’s used to destroy. Being competitive can bring out the best in each of us. And, yet. Isn’t it ultimately more rewarding if we ‘simply love what we do’? Whether we win, lose, or draw?Friday, July 1, 2011It's all in how you see it by J. L. Wilson I recently had a chance to talk to a group of writers about my publishing experiences and one topic came up that's near and dear to my heart: success. As I explained to them, every author has to define for him/herself what constitutes success. You can't count on lists, royalties, or fans -- as we all know, those can be capricious ways to measure success.~ theromancestudio.blogspot.com/2011/07/its-all-in-how-you-see-it.html ~ ~~~~~~

From Astrology.com ~ Venus's Challenges Improve Your Love Life!If these last few days have felt a bit bumpy, then rest assured: Resolution is coming, and you'll soon be breathing a sigh of relief!In recent days, sweet and social Venus in sensitive Cancer has been on an emotional roller coaster during contact with both mischievous Uranus and possessive Pluto. As its final challenge this week, Venus butts heads with severe Saturn on July 13. This interaction will require you to see your relationships exactly as they are - no rose-colored glasses allowed! The knowledge you gain will help you establish limits without being too critical. While frivolous Venusian romance is certainly fun, tossing stressful Saturn into the mix can ultimately result in a stronger, more lasting relationship.Then, on July 15, the full Moon in Capricorn opposes the Cancer Sun. Capricorn is known for its workaholic tendencies, while Cancer is all about home and loved ones. With this full Moon, you'll find yourself in that classic tug of war between work and family. The goal here is not to choose one or the other, but rather to figure out how each can comfortably fit into your life. Don't worry if this sounds impossible at first -- with a bit of creativity, you can make this balancing act work! ~~~~~~
BIG CAT WHAT IF? Can you imagine what it would look like if there were 50 Million folks standing in breadlines? Because that’s how many Americans are on foodstamps now. Sadly. Now, imagine if we were a truly free people. What if we, as a population, hadn’t been made dependent ‘by design’ by the bankster-gangsters, and we were all living our passion? No one would be going hungry... very few of us would be living in poverty. We have been artificially kept from achieving our potential, and forced into dependency like someone who is force-fed drugs and turned into an addict by the bad guys. ~~~~~~

Okay then, the Kougaress ‘doesn’t’ have the condition called Tinnitus, the ringing in the ears.. However, she has known others who do. One remedy is the herb Gingko Biloba because it rebuilds the small capillaries in the ear. Now, this takes time, of course, and is not always the problem. Last night, she heard about another remedy from a woman who had Tinnitus, and cured it by putting Castor Oil in her ears at night. She would put several drops in each ear, then cover with a cotton ball. That worked for her, and it is recommended that you use a good quality castor oil. ~~~

From Astrology.com ~ Uranus Goes Retrograde So many plans to make! So much to do and see and experience! And with Uranus going retrograde, you'll want to do, see and experience it all! Still, the challenge of a Uranus retrograde is recognizing that you can't do it all. Instead, you have to learn to pick and choose wisely.Any retrograde period encourages you to turn inward for understanding, but with Uranus, this occurs at a deeper level. On July 10, when Uranus goes retrograde in on-the-go Aries, every fiber of your being will want to move. You'll be eager to forge ahead with your plans now, now, now! However, your actual goal will require you to pause, step back and assess whether your plans are in tune with your needs. What are your motivations? Is there a better way?This may not sound too difficult, but when the time comes, you'll likely find yourself struggling to hold back. Keep in mind that the harder it is for you to step back from your plans, the more likely it is that there's something lurking deep within yourself that you're trying to avoid. And this is exactly what Uranus wants you to uncover.Uranus will remain retrograde until December. You can expect the initial months to be the most challenging, but as you turn inward, you'll discover you've also opened the door to new inspirations, visions and innovations. And by then, you'll be well on your way down an even more exciting path! ~~~~~~

Meet Phillip the Vampire, a secondary character in Kandy Apple and Her Hellhounds. Friday into Saturday purrs and yowls, my gorgeous and glittery-eyed Felines... wooowee, this Big Cat can’t keep track of the days, at least, not like she used to do... not only is time at Superman-fast speed, but somehow the days are blending into one another... sort of. ~~~
A Call to the GOOD... most of us help others when we can, and often go out of our way... certainly a level of discernment is necessary to determine when our actions really will do good for others, or if we are just being taken advantage of... still, for these times when so many are suffering, it becomes even more crucial to bring forth the GOOD inside ourselves, and to act when we have that ‘special’ knowing inside, the one that lets us know this is a good and right thing to do. No, it is not wise to simply give and give, just for the sake of giving. Truly, that is counterproductive in the grand scheme of your life, and in the grand scheme of life itself. It helps no one. However, NOW is the time in our world, on our beloved Earth. And the Kougaress is putting forth A CALL TO THE GOOD in all of us. May we unite in mind, heart, and soul, and bring that GOOD into each others lives. ~~~~~~

According to our personal beliefs, we can also ask the Divine to meet everyone’s need... or, simply wish for everyone’s need to be met. ~~~~~~

Awaken the Eagle Spirit ... today the Kougaress listened to a man, Jan Irvin*, on internet radio who is an expert in critical thinking... this Big Cat has a background of studying this as well -- college courses she took in philosophy, and her own pursuit of knowledge. But, this topic is not too whoopee interesting you yowl?
Well, it is if you want to know how the FIFTH AVENUE ‘boys’ and the BORG-CORP propagandists have altered our culture to their decided advantage, and emotionally lobotomized us to a degree... it is if you’re under the influence, and want to break free of their highly sophisticated hypnotic techniques. It is if you want to be truly free to soar to your highest potential. It is if you want to Awaken to the Eagle Spirit within you. For, that is part of the overall AWAKENING happening across the globe... our hearts, our minds, our very souls are winging toward the Divine. Those, i.e. the establishment mafia, who find this to be an incalculable threat, are using every method and technique to stop this freedom of the mind, the heart, the soul. * “... author and lecturer in archaeoastronomy, astrotheology, ethnopharmacology, Jan Irvin.
