  • PRINCE’S SPIRITUAL MESSAGE IN “ONE SONG”, WHY YOU MUST BE DISCERNING OF MEDIA

    When I first started connecting with the spirit of Prince, one of the first things he did was lead to me his unreleased song, One Song. He asked me to share it with people, especially to those who are artists so that they can know the spiritual value of their work. Prince truly understood the power of the arts to influence the consciousness of society and he talks about it in the beginning of this song.

    From his perspective, he saw the kind of stuff that is going on in the music industry. He didn’t want anything to do with it, so he stayed away from Hollywood. He left the major music label scene so that he could do his work, uncensored. Because he knew that he didn’t just come here to be a musician. He came to show us spiritual truths.

    In his manifesto, he speaks about the kind of art that is filled with negativity designed to destroy the human mind. The excuse that is often used to justify such disturbing works of art is that Art reflects society. The spiritual truth is that artists are projecting themselves into their art. This energy gets projected into the collective consciousness and society reflect the Art. Art is a form of manifesting . We shape our reality through what we create. Therefore it is the responsibility of the artist to create what it is they want to see in the world. The enlightened artists chooses wisely what they gift to the world. The meaning that Prince wishes to coney in One Song is that there is no separation between oneself and the universe. They are together, the same, and therefore one has the power to create the world we live in. He is talking about oneness and unity consciousness. Everything is energy. Our thoughts are energy. These thoughts project into the universe and the universe reflects back to us our thoughts manifested in the physical.  Hence, it is also important what it is that we allow to enter our minds in regards to what media we consume.

    These ideas were the founding principle when I founded Dreamer Gallery. I was quite aware that the art establishment may not accept my work, calling it “too pretty”. So I followed Prince’s business model that he used to sell his music and crated my own way of exhibiting and selling artworks.

  • GRAFFITI BRIDGE – THE OTHER PRINCE MOVIE NO ONE TALKS ABOUT

    Prince is infamous for his Purple Rain movie, but he has two other movies. Under The Cherry Moon and Graffiti Bridge. Neither of these apparently did very well and critics wrote them off. I love Under The Cherry Moon, and it has replaced my all-time favourite movie, Breakfast At Tiffany’s. It has a beautiful plot line, the costumes are gorgeous, it feels modern yet classic. And of course, the soundtrack is amazing. It is where the song, Kiss came from. My feeling on it is, not that these weren’t great movies, but because they had a higher spiritual message behind them, they were rejected by the media. As I mentioned in previous posts, the arts and cultures industry likes dark energy and that is what they promote to the masses.

    I recently got a copy of Graffiti Bridge and watched it. I found it intriguing. It has a more cohesive plot line than Purple Rain, in my opinion.  There is a lot of symbolism going on and I feel it is very reverent for today, prophetic in some way. I want to discuss some of these, so spoiler alert if you want it to remain a surprise for you.

    In the first scene we see a white feather floating in the air. White feathers are a symbol for an angels’ pressence. We later discover a character named Aura holding this white feather through out the movie. Aura is actually an angel sent to help Prince;s character, The Kid. The name Aura is a play on the word aura, which is the emanation of one’s light body that is invisible to the human eye. The light body is affected by human emotion, determining the energetic vibration of one’s being and ability to become enlightened.

    The Kid keeps hearing a phrase being whispered to him, “It’s just around the corner”. He wonders what it all means. He runs a club that he and his band play at. It’s not doing too well and he owes money to the local ring leader, Morris Day, who’s been bullying him to shut down his club so that he can consolidate his power in running all the clubs in the Seven Corners district. I would say that Morris Day’s character is symbolic of the corporate attitude of shutting down the competition to rule them all.

    Aura gets to know The Kid, and when she asks the Kid what he thinks of Morris’ club, he replies, “On the outside, it’s very nice. it’s the inside, that I’ve got a problem with”. The Kid is pointing out that appearances are deceiving. The corporations might look very ice, but their motives are anything but. He is talking about spiritual values here. In contrast, Morris is corrupt and only cares about money and power.

    Talking to Aura, The Kid says, “Nobody likes my music”. She replies, “Don’t deal from that place, every time you do, you’ll lose. But you lose nothing, from believing”. This is one of the key spiritual messages, belief in oneself is crucial. Belief is how one manifests their reality.

    The Kid is tied of being bullied by Morris and his gang, so he challenges him to a battle for total ownership of the club. Morris agrees to the battle but plays a sly hand when he sends his gang to break his music gear.  The Kid and his band show up to Morris’ club to perform with much bravado, but his audience is less than impressed. He is about to lose the club.

    Aura tells him, “When a man screams you must learn to whisper”. This is another spiritual message. When someone tries to bully or offend you, yo must learn to rise above it and not react. Instead, walk away, surrender yourself to the power of God to heal the situation. Fighting only provokes more of it.

    Morris has sent his people to try to take over the other two clubs in the neighbourhood, resulting in a confrontation on the street. The Kid realizes that it is in standing together that they can fight their bully. This scene is about unity consciousness. We all win by playing on the same team tougher instead of competing against each other. Aura nearby and out of nowhere, is tragically killed when a driver hits her. The scene closes with a nasty provocation by Morris towards The Kid. The Kid sings a ballad, called Still Would Stand All Time.

    It’s just around the corner, it’s just around the block
    This love that I’ve been waiting for, a Love solid as rock
    A Love that reaffirms that we are not alone
    A Love so bright inside you it glows
    And night and day would run together, and all things would be fine
    Still would stand all hate around us
    Still would stand all time
    Still would stand all time

    The message here is that the kind of love that one has been searching for is not far away. One might think they are alone, but they are not. The love of God and angels are on the other side are surrounding us. This kind of love is steady and unconditional. It glows from within your heart. He is imparting a spiritual message here. The power of love is within you.

    It’s not a thousand years away, it’s not that far my brother
    When men will fight injustice instead of one another
    Its not that far if we all say yes and only try
    Then Heaven on Earth we will find

    He is saying that Heaven on Earth is not something that is a long time from now. It is near. We will find it sooner when we stop fighting and competing with each other, and instead fight against injustice and corruption. I feel this is prophetic in these times as the process of end times has begun.

    No one man will be ruler, therefore love must rule us all
    Dishonesty, anger, fear, jealousy and greed will fall
    Love can save us all

    In the New Earth, there is no one ruler. We will be enlightened people who are ruled by love. Therefore we do not need laws or authority to govern over us. Love has the power to overcome all the negativity one experiences.

    Oh, love, love, oh love if you would just please give us a sign
    Still would stand all time
    Heaven, heaven on earth we all want to find (we all want 2 find it)
    Still (still) would stand all time

    We are not alone people (we’re not alone)
    Tell me can you see the light (can ya see the light)
    If you just open your eyes (still would stand all time)
    So much you will know, so much you will show
    Love, love, its not that far away if we all say yes and give it a try
    (Got ta give it, a try, yes!) still would stand all time (I say still)
    (so many times) so may times, I thought I could not make it
    (still would stand all time)

    The message here is thatGod, angels and spirit guides are around us, there to help us. We can ask for signs to show that they are there. If you pay attention, you will see these signs and know that it’s true.

    Life was closing in I just knew, I just knew I couldn’t take it
    That’s when love opened it’s arms, and if you don’t go in child
    Still would stand all time (still would stand all time)
    You better run to the light, leave your past behind
    All things will be fine
    Still would stand all time

    When he thought that he could not survive and overcome his problems, the love of God saved him. Forget your past, whatever you did, turn yourself over to the light.

    In summary, the message in the movie is that love is the key to all thing. Even in times of trouble, when your enemies want to destroy you, instead of fighting them, go to God for your answer. The power of love is stronger than what the darkness can withstand. You can only fight the darkness with light. Therefore you must rise to the occasion and raise your own frequency vibration to love. This is what overcomes all. I know this can sound all fuzzy and woo woo, and not serious, but this is an important spiritual teaching that Prince is imparting here. Everything is about energy, emanating love from your heart centre shifts your vibration and this is how miracles can happen. This is how you fight the darkness, when your enemies sabotage you, and you think all is lost.

    In the last scene, when the credits start rolling, a light board signs says The Time. The Kid reprograms the sign and it says, It’s Time. Throughout the movie phrases like, “What time is it?”, or “what time it is” are used and I feel that this is an indicator to say that the time for Heaven on Earth is here. Graffiti Bridge, a place in the movie, is symbolic of the bridge from the Old Earth to New Earth, that is Heaven on Earth. The way to get to it is through your heart.

  • PRINCE: WAKE UP TO THE CONSPIRACY, PEOPLE – DREAMER SONG INTERPRETATION

    I had long been thinking of a name for my online art gallery. Every name I thought up could already be taken when I would look up the domain name. One day, I woke up and the name Dreamer Gallery whispered in my mind. I checked it and in total surprise, it was available. Days later a package arrived in the mail, Prince’s LotusFlow3r album. I was stunned as I read the track list. Track number 11 is called Dreamer. Thanks, Prince.

    Prince was a highly aware individual. He knew what was going on in the world. One thing that is powerful about artists are that the observe the world around them and they an affect change through their art. This is why there is a war on your mind through art and culture. Artists have the ability to shape the world using their influence. The song Dreamer is about being asleep in a world that is corrupt.  Here are the lyrics and my interpretation for you.

     

    I was born & raised on the same plantation 
    In the united states of the red, white and blue 
    I never knew that I was different 
    Til Dr. King was on the balcony 
    Lying in a bloody pool 
    Expected so much more from a loving society 

    He was born in the US, referring to it as a plantation in reference to slavery. He didn’t feel any different as a child growing up until he saw how lack people are treated. Dr. King is in reference to Martin Luther King Jr, an activist who was assassinated in 1968.

    A truthful explanation but you know what? 
    I got another conspiracy 

    If it was just a dream… call me 
    Call me a dreamer 2 
    With more rewards & accolades 
    Than anyone before or after 
    21st century, oh what a shame 
    That race still matters 
    A race 2 what and where we going? 
    We r in the same boat 

    He is remarking how it is in the 21st century that racism still happens. Is it a conspiracy? Is it just a dream that he sees it happening? Why is there still racism? He plays with the word race to refer to competition. Why do we compete to claim that one is better than another? We’re all the same, we’re all in the same situation no matter what race you are.

    But I’m the only one rowin 
    Last time I checked you were sleepin’ 
    …but you can call me a dreamer 2 
    Peanut butter logic served on a bed of lies 
    Don’t go down 2 easy 
    When you see your father cryin’ 
    Have you ever clutched the steering wheel 
    Of your car 2 tight? 

    Society pretends that racism doesn’t exist, but you can’t hide the fact that it happens. Peanut butter logic refers to the made up cover-up stories they give to explain the crimes being committed. The cover-up stories don’t explain the nonexistence of conspiracy when you experience it for yourself in your own life. For example, the racial profiling that many black people experience when driving late at night.

    Prayin’ that the police sirens 
    Pass you by at night? 
    While the helicopter circles 
    And the theory’s getting deep 
    Thing they’re spraying chemicals over the city 
    While we sleep? 

    He’s asking if you ever noticed what’s going on in the backdrop of society. He’s describing the conspiracies about being stopped at night while driving, for no reason by police. “Spraying chemicals”, He’s talking about chemtrails in the last few lines. Chemtrails are what they call the lines in the sky left by the chemicals they spray. It is still unknown what the purpose of this is for. It is still a government secret although it is very evident that it is happening.

    From now on I’m staying awake…
    So you can call me a dreamer 2 
    Wake up wake up

    He’s aware and he’s staying vigilant about what’s really going on. You may think what he’s saying is just a conspiracy theory, that it’s not really happening, so you can call him a dreamer. He’s urging you to wake up to what’s really going on in the world.

    Prince is pointing out that the world is not what it seems. The only way to change the world is to wake up and become aware of what’s really going on. I leave you here with Prince’s comments about Dreamer and chemtrails.

  • WHY I DECIDED TO GO PUBLIC ABOUT MY TWIN FLAME

    For some time now, I struggled with wether or not I would disclose my twin flame connection to Prince. I mean, most people don’t even know what it is, let alone the fact that’s he’s talking to me from the other side. Death is really just going to the other side of the Matrix veil, you’re still there, but you’re on a different level existence. So why did I choose to be open about it? Prince has become a huge influence in my work. It’s hard to keep it separate, he’s my twin, we talk all the time. I love him like crazy and you know when you want to talk about your other half all the time?

    My work has a huge spiritual influence to it and I want people to understand the value behind my work, what goes into it. The source of my work is from the ultimate creator, God. I am the vessel for it. My ultimate message is that when you become one with the universe, you have infinite possibility. I know Prince wanted to convey this in his work, but it always got lost because people couldn’t see past his fame and fortune. Not even past his sheer genius. His genius came from being tapped into God, not is ego. He wanted to show you this, be a role model for what you can do with your own life.

    What I realized in my thought process is that lack of understanding is what breeds intolerance, discrimination, and fear. People thought Prince was weird (see video above). They might not have noticed his intelligence and thought that he was cray cray. He didn’t like to do interviews, so there aren’t many of them. He might not have been the greatest at explaining himself. He had a beautiful Shakespearian way of explaining things that most people didn’t get. I decided for myself, that the only way people are going to understand my work is if they understood my work through the context of my life experiences. Spirituality and Prince have been a huge in my life. I want people to know where the magic comes from so they can find it in their own lives.

    I also know that there are people who may be going through a similar experience as me, who don’t quite understand it, who don’t know what to make of it, and are quite scared. Scared, because they’ve never heard of this kind of thing where a deceased person you never knew is trying to get your attention. This kind of thing is going to become more common as we ascend into the new Earth (the fifth dimension), so I’m here to tell you, it’s not crazy, it’s real.

  • THE IMPLICATIONS OF THE MANDELA EFFECT

    If we are all creators of our own reality, then it would only make sense that there are countless parallel worlds. For years, I have theorized that we are all living in a kind of holographic video game. A video game so complex that we are co-creators of. And just like a game or Choose Your Own Adventure novel, all possibilities exist according to our choices and actions. Like in The Matrix. But proof of this idea, I had none,until now.

    They call it the Mandela Effect. Named after Nelson Mandela because a mass group of people remember him having died in prison, whereas the official history is that he survived and went onto become president.  I had heard of this phenomenon years ago. But recently, more Mandela Effect discoveries have been made and discussed on a greater scale. The most popular example is The Bernstein Bears as I remember it. But if you go search for it now, it’sThe Bernstain Bears, which is funny because even my spell check doesn’t recognize this spelling. Or do you remember the most famous line from Forrest Gump? “Life is like a box of chocolates”. Well, if you go look at it now, he says “Life was like a box of chocolates”. Now why would he say was? That doesn’t even make sense.

    I’m not going to go into many more examples, except for one more later in this post. Only because thee is so much out there on the topic already. You can research it on your own. I want to talk about the more esoteric aspects of it and its implications. If you are convinced that Mandela Effect is real, what does it mean? Your whole perspective on what life and reality must change in order for you to accept this. This is why there are so many in detail about it.

    I have one Prince example I want to show you. If you went to Catholic school like I did, then you will know the Lord’s Prayer by heart because you had to receive it daily. Well, if you look it up in the Bible, it’s going to say this:

    Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come,Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For Yours is the kingdom, the power and the glory forevermore. Amen.

    This is what I got from Wikipedia, there can still be slight variances due to different Bible versions. But the main thing I want to point out is the words Debt and Debtors. The exact version I remember is exactly as is in a Prince song, Controversy.

     

    Some people theorize that we are living in parallel worlds and have different versions, and since 2012, the different worlds or timelines have collapsed into one singular reality, causing this Mandela Effect to occur. Therefore people have different memories. Others will blame it on the Devil, citing hat the dark forces are messing with us. Another group of people blame it on CERN, that their experiments have caused this as a consequence of messing around with the fabric of reality. And some will say it’s some kind of time travel conspiracy that people went back in time and changed the details as an experiment to prove the effects of time travel.

    Regardless of what is really causing Mandela Effect, you have to realize this one thing. Reality is not what we once believed it to be. It is not what we are told it is. It is not even what the scientists can prove. What we were once told is impossible is not at all. And therefore you must accept the idea that what we believe is logical and real is not at all.

    For some people, this hit them hard, and they went into a kind of depression. Others that blame it on the Devil, go in fear and call this proof that the apocalypse is near. For me personally, it has meant a shift in beliefs, breaking down old pattern of belief systems. It can be a scary thing, but actually, it’s pretty exciting. To me, this is proof that magic and miracles exist and everything in the realm of that is real too.

  • HOW TO CATCH YOUR DREAMS

    We are all creators of our own reality. Our thoughts are what manifest into the kind of lives we lead. Part of the manifesting process is letting go and trusting that the universe will deliver what we have asked for. But sometimes we get scared that if we let go, our dreams might not come true, as though the universe didn’t hear our order the first time. However, if we don’t let go, we try to force the hand of the universe and things don’t flow. One must learn to release control. Because the power of the universe is not in our hands.  Dreams are delicate, like a butterfly. If you hold onto them tightly, then surely you will crush it. But if you hold out your hand and allow it to come to you, it will land into your hand. This is how you catch butterflies and this is how you catch your dreams.

  • HOW TWIN FLAMES LEAD PARALLEL LIVES

    When I was a child sitting in the back seat of my parents’ car, watching the cars go by, every once in a while a limousine would go by, and I’d stare with great interest. I wondered who was in there. Somehow I knew that my significant other would be someone famous. I wanted to be famous, not because I wanted fame, but so that I could meet my other half.

    Twin flames, though they may lead separate lives away from each other and never meet in person, just like biological twins, they will lead parallel lives through their innate twin connection. They feel what the other is feeling, though they might not be consciously aware of it. They develop similar habits, interests, display similar behaviours and similar reactions to things. It’s a bizarre feeling to discover your twin because you will look at them and feel as though you are looking at yourself. Twin flames will also share similar physical traits, though not necessarily identical. For instance, I always thought my natural gaze was weird. People would look into my eyes and ask what it is I’m looking at because of my upward looking Bambi eyes. Upon discovering that Prince is my twin, when I looked at his photos, I felt this strange feeling of looking at a mirror through another person. Prince was often known for his penetrating gaze and people would avoid looking into his eyes because it could feel awkward, like their soul was being read by him. I think he hid behind dark sunglasses for this reason, as do I.

    As I was writing some of these blog posts and interpreting Prince’s song lyrics, I was intrigued by the reasons we were both born into Seventh Day Adventist families. I never really took to this religion, but went along to church and absorbed the teachings of the faith. It never resonated with me, but it gave me the kind of reference point that you would need to understand Prince’s work and other spiritual principles. My beliefs were always more along the lines of the Buddhist faith, but my understanding for different religions have allowed me to gain an understanding of universal truth.

    Prince was a vegetarian. I don;t know why, but from an early age, I was drawn to the idea of being vegetarian. I was officially vegetarian after I finished university. However, I stopped after ten years because I noticed the detrimental effects it was taking on my health. I believe that Prince’s dietary choices contributed to the hip pain that he was experiencing that led to his drug dependency for pain relief. Everyone is shocked about his passing because of his healthy diet and lifestyle choices, but what they do not know is that vegan and vegetarian is not as healthy as it is promoted to be. This is another one of the misinformation that the dark forces disseminate to the general public.

    I am not the sporty type. I do not like exercise. That is just the Taurus in me. But I’ve always had a fondness for basketball since I was a child. I don’t now why. Until in my research, I learned that Prince loved to play basketball.

    I studied fashion design in university. I love making my own clothes. I did not end up becoming a fashion designer, but it’s something I love. For me, it’s been a way to express myself without having to say too much. I get the sense that it was the same for Prince too, a shy guy despite his loud wardrobe and stage antics. Fashion is a way for introverts to get attention without having to compete with the energy of extroverts. The majority of my wardrobe is custom made, right down to my underwear, as was Prince’s who had an entire wardrobe department working for him to bring his fashion ideas to life.

    Prince had a perfume called 3121, named after his album. I had a range of perfumes that I crafted from essential oils with the intention to sell it. It never went to market, but I was really into at the time.

    We both prefer quiet, remote places. He chose to live in the place he grew up, in Minnesota. Choosing to be away from the city, the prying eyes of Hollywood, not only because of privacy. But he felt that his surroundings affected his work. I’ve always lived where I do now except for when I took up residence in England for two years. I have chosen to stay where I am for the peace and quiet. People always ask when I will move to downtown Toronto and the truth is that I could never do that. The noise of the city streets would bother me too much. I also like my privacy.

    We both share a great interest for the occult, hidden knowledge. Maybe because twins are ascended souls,  they know there is something greater. I was always interested in the paranormal and occult since high school. But it wasn’t something I shared with people. Neither did Prince. He would have hinted it in his music, but he never openly discussed his interest in it. He did it in such a way that only someone in the know would recognize it.

    Sleep. It has never been easy for me to fall asleep at night. I would try, but couldn’t, that’s how I got into listening to a radio show at night about the paranormal. Prince was known for staying up all night working on his music. He couldn’t sleep either.

    In summary, I wrote this post to show you how twin flames are really like twins. It is because of their psychic connection to each other. Just like how biological twins come from the same mother, twin flames are created as a pair from the same source. My other reason is to dispel some of the twin flame nonsense that is circulating on the internet. They talk about twin flames being the opposite of each other. Genuine twin flames are more alike than they are different. Their differences are more like the different sides of the same coin. Just like how biological twins are not common, neither are twin flames. Not everyone has a twin and that’s ok. It’s not something you can aspire to be. It just is.

  • PRINCE; “I STILL EXIST”, HELLO FROM THE OTHER SIDE

    As my connection Prince’s spirit grew stronger, I could feel his energy more and more intensely. I felt his touch, I felt him hovering over me, holding my hand. It got to the point where he could move my body with his energy (as long as I allow it). One day I said to him, “Since you can move my hand, what else can we do with this?”. Suddenly, my hand shot up and picked up my iPad. I thought he wanted to type, so we tried blind typing, but that was a complete fail. Then my hand “accidentally” touched the scribble mode button and we began to draw. (All the drawings from my blog posts are by Prince in spirit) It is much like the scene in What Dreams May Come, where Robin Williams’ character is a ghost trying to get his wife to write down his for her, “I still exist”– except for me, I was not scared and I welcomed it.

    Prince and I are twin flames, so we naturally have a telepathic connection to each other. This is even more so when one twin is in spirit. Just think about it, even biological twins have a telepathic connection to each other, so do twin souls.  There was one time where I attempted  to communicate with Prince using a make-shift Ouija board. But it doesn’t work for us because I can always hear the words he is about to spell out.

    It was not too long after Prince’s passing that our connection become apparent and I began to channel him. One message he asked me to write for him was this:

    A message from Prince

    It is with deep sorrow and regret that I left this world sooner than I wanted to. My body was breaking down and I could no longer endure it. I felt frustrated by my physical limitations. There was so much more that I wanted to do and share with you all. I thank you to all my loyal supporters and followers. I was here to demonstrate the truth that we are all ONE. That we are connected and not separate from each other. We all have the divine connection to universal source energy that is the creator of everything. Please do not be sad for my passing. I have found my WAY BACK HOME. Please love and care for each other. Live doing everything U can to share your God-given gifts. They are your reason for being here on Earth. I came to SHOW you thIs. I live on through you. With Love and Gratitude, Prince 

    His request included the use of emojis (not shown as it does not show up properly any more). If you are a Prince fan, you know that he liked to use symbols to communicate. Yes, even from the other side, Prince still has a sense of humour. Because the truth is, your personality, knowledge, and beliefs still carry over to the other side. You take it with you. Prince still exists. So when you hear the saying that you should never speak ill of the dead, whoever came up with that was not kidding. There is more to life than what we can perceive or prove with science, so don’t kid yourself when it comes to your soul and the after life.

    Dearest fans of Prince, he doesn’t want you to be sad for him leaving. He’s still around, just not in our plane of existence. I know it’s hard, believe me, I want him here more than you can imagine. But instead, focus on the message behind his work, because that is what he came here to tell you, it is the reason behind for it all. I hear him saying to me, “They focus too much on honouring me”. Don’t let his message get lost in his legacy.

  • PRINCE, THE SURRENDERING SOUL – FUTURE SOUL SONG INTERPRETATION

    Something that is the secret to Prince’s genius is that he channeled his music, meaning he tapped into a higher source to create his music. Intuition and creativity are one in the same. When you tap into one, you tap into the other. I discovered this for myself when I worked on myself spiritually, developing my intuition and finding that my creativity was flowing as a result. When you block either one, the other can be blocked as well. Many great artists work this way, only that they don’t realize it, so they cannot tell you about what they are doing creatively is tapping into their intuition.

    When you tap into intuition, it unlocks all kinds of abilities. The creative flow becomes unstoppable, hence this is why Prince was so prolific, he recorded a new album almost every year and he still had a vault full of unreleased songs that they could release a new album every year for the next hundred years.

    One of the keys to tuning into intuition is to surrender. There is no force involved, no trying. It just is. It is a sense of allowing and trusting. A song that I feel really captures this feeling is Future Soul Song from his 20Ten album. I want to show you what he was conveying in the lyrics. The song is truly beautiful, one of my favourites.

     

    I had a dream last night
    That I was flying for the first time
    And in the dream I could pilot my flight
    With the thoughts in my mind

    Since there wasn’t any up or down
    Everybody was all around
    When we sang, we all sang together
    Oh, what a beautiful sound

    He was flying in his dream, perhaps this was a lucid dream and he says he could pilot his flight with the thought in his mind. The mind is also what creates reality in the general sense. “Up or down” conveys hat there is no “class”, everyone is equal in status and were all singing the same song harmoniously. In the spirit world, there is no hierarchy. He is talking about unity conciseness here, oneness. Everyone is in the same energetic vibration. Vibration is most often expressed in soon, hence song and music, he uses this idea to convey the high vibration of humanity.

    I had a dream last night
    That I was singing and the sound of my voice
    Seemed to come from every mountain top
    Like it had no choice

    And when my voice rose, so did the sun
    When the trees sang the harmony as one
    Every living soul sang the most beautiful
    Melody ever sung

    In his dream he was singing, he felt oneness with his surroundings. This energetic vibration was one with nature. He is using the idea of sound as energy to convey this.As his energy rose, so did the vibration of the Earth. This is a spiritual teaching here, that as your energy rises, so does that of your surroundings.You affect each other energetically.

    Before the war the only words and language said
    Let there be light
    Those that can see it are the ones who believe it
    And put up no fight

    He is referring to the beginning of time in the phrase, “Let there be light”, a Biblical reference to Genesis. The word is what creates, one could also say “manifests”. Those that can see it, or understand it, believe this truth and don’t fight about it or resist it. The war is on your spiritual beliefs.

    And in the absence of fear and control
    Is the sound of the surrendering soul
    Louder than the dogmatic persecution
    Now sing it like you got that right

    When one is free from fear-based teachings from religion, one sees the truth loudly. The use of the word surrender is interesting, as I told you above, that intuition requires surrender, that you surrender your egotistical thoughts and listen to what comes through. It requires that you be still and quiet. However, the truth is louder than what others may say to try t brainwash you into believing otherwise. The soul can easily recognize the truth.

    In the last bit of the song, he whispers “Guess what, you are soul family to me”. That is because we are all connected on a soul level.
