Magazine Overview

Title: Revelations of Awareness
Issue: 79-24
Date: August 7, 1979
Publisher: Cosmic Awareness Communications
Type: Cosmic Newsletter

This issue of Revelations of Awareness, presented as a general reading from Cosmic Awareness interpreted by Paul Shockley, focuses on impending global and economic shifts, particularly the anticipated arrival of "Russians" and "hard times." The newsletter frames these events within a New Age context, suggesting a transition from a "Straits of Transition" to a "Tranquility Bay" before entering "Point Depression."

From Tranquility Bay to Point Depression

The core message is that a period of relative calm, or "Tranquility Bay," will precede a significant economic downturn, termed "Point Depression." This depression is expected to last about six months, marked by rising unemployment and increased costs. Certain areas, especially those reliant on military or industrial income, will be particularly affected. The construction, manufacturing, and sales sectors are also predicted to experience a slowdown.

Geopolitical Shifts and Russian Influence

A central theme is the predicted involvement of "Russian forces" in the United States. The text suggests that these forces have "thrown out" the "Bolshevik controls" or "Illuminati" (referred to as "the Beast") and are now attempting to "liberate the United States from this also." This is presented not as an invasion, but as a takeover, with the intention of increasing US productivity to assist in neutralizing the rest of the world in alliance with Russia. It is stated that "Russian Christians" are gaining control of the US economy. The newsletter also mentions the possibility of "executions in Washington" and the military coming under control, followed by the economy.

The text posits that the current US government has been taken over by "Russian Christians" with the aid of US officials and military elements who are shedding "throwing off the yoke of the British-controlled Illuminati." The collapse of the economy, previously planned by entities like the Rothschilds and Rockefellers, will proceed but will be used by the Russians to consolidate their control, rather than for setting up wartime dictatorship powers against Russia.

Relative Freedom and Alliance with Russia

Following this consolidation of control, a "relative amount of freedom" will be granted, allowing the nation to continue with an "independent type of program" as long as it remains in alliance with Russia. The newsletter refers to previous readings concerning "The Gathering Storm" and "The Illuminati" to provide context for these developments.

Spiritual Preparation and Opportunities

Despite the challenging predictions, the newsletter emphasizes that there are opportunities for those with spiritual awareness. It suggests that entities can influence the forces in movement to bring about a new world based on harmony, compassion, and service, rather than war. The text encourages individuals to "shine" and promote this vision of freedom for others.

Economic Considerations and Practical Advice

As a response to the predicted economic difficulties, the newsletter offers practical advice. It suggests stocking up on essential supplies such as wheat, barley, split-peas, lentils, beans, nuts, honey, and canned or dried foods, sufficient for approximately six months. For heating, it recommends considering coal, oil, electricity, gas, and particularly wood stoves, suggesting that wood may be obtained legally and ecologically from forestry departments or by cutting down dead or dying trees.

Insulation for homes, including plastic on windows, storm windows, wall and floor insulation, and rugs, is also recommended to combat rising energy costs. The advice extends to considering food storage, possibly renting a locker for frozen food, and ensuring a supply of necessary medicines, with alternative sources in case of shortages.

Job Security and FEAST Centers

Individuals are encouraged to consider their job security in light of the economic downturn and to potentially seek more stable employment or alternative income sources. Seniority is highlighted as a factor in potential job loss. The newsletter also mentions the increasing involvement and needs of "FEAST Centers," trade center operations under the Aquarian Church, suggesting these can provide opportunities during depressed times.

Overcoming Fear and Maintaining Awareness

Under the heading "FEAR NOT," the newsletter addresses the potential for anxiety and insecurity arising from the predictions. It suggests that the dread of a situation is often worse than the reality and that entities will find compensations for the economic slowdown. The core message is to "be aware" and to remember one's "divinity" and "divine sublimity," avoiding "mob madness" or "chaotic consciousness."

Personal Readings and Russian Troop Invasion Scenario

The newsletter notes that the Interpreter is nearing completion of personal readings and suggests limiting them to approximately ten per month to manage the workload. It also addresses a hypothetical scenario of "Russian Troops Invade the U.S.," stating "Fear not.... Only believe." It frames the current situation as a "sneak preview" for C.A.C. members, enabling them to prepare. The text suggests that the apathy of the American people might prevent a revolution that could provoke a severe Russian response. It references a "Dr. Beter tape" regarding Russian invasion preparations and emphasizes the "Law of One," recognizing the divine spark in every human face, regardless of nationality or religion.

Related Materials

References are made to previous readings concerning the Illuminati and the coming events, including titles like "The Gathering Storm," "The Passage Perilous," and "Cosmic History of the Illuminati." A booklet titled "Saving Fortunes by Sharing Favors" (How to Side-Step the Coming Depression) is also advertised.

Recurring Themes and Editorial Stance

The recurring themes in this issue are economic hardship, geopolitical shifts involving Russia, and the necessity of spiritual awareness and preparation. The editorial stance is one of forewarning and guidance, encouraging proactive measures and a focus on spiritual resilience rather than succumbing to fear. The publication positions itself as a source of information for those seeking to understand and navigate these impending changes within a New Age framework.
