The End?

Greetings, Gifted Reader!

So, is this it? Are we finis? Did the world end today? Did The Rapture begin?

It blows my mind!
According to followers of radio host Harold Camping, this is the last day we humans will exist on planet earth. If Camping’s prediction ends up coming true, do you think that would be a tragedy? Or, would it be something positive--more like a gateway to a better future?

Yes, Gypsy Stars asks a lot of questions. Blame it on my Sag Moon, which also makes me an eternal optimist. I totally agreed with Bob Marley when he sang, “When one door is closed, many others are opened”.

In the law of cause and effect, wouldn't it mean that if life no longer exists on this plane (for spirits inside human bodies), it's bound to exist on another, new and improved plane? What do you think?

Ah. A much better thought.
Like a lot of religious leaders, Camping preaches exclusivity. Accordingly, if you don’t follow his particular belief system, then you will be doomed to exist on earth while his believers will ascend to some heavenly place that you won’t have access to. Pray tell, what would be so heavenly about that? If you’re a Camping believer and you end up in heaven, but someone you love who is not a believer is condemned to stay on earth, how heavenly will that be for you to be separated from them? Eternally!

But let’s suppose that the world does end today. Have you ever thought about whom you would like most to meet on the Other Side—presuming they retain some semblance of their old human self, that is? 

I have a long list, but one of the more interesting spirits to arrive here in human form, I believe, was martial arts superstar Bruce Lee. Below is a photo of his grave next to his son’s, Brandon's, along with some of Gypsy Stars’ international friends.


Another friend initially took me to the Lee's graves several years ago. On that shimmering summer day, she and I stopped to eat lunch in Chinatown. And, when we arrived at the gravesite, we decided to leave an offering of some of our leftover rice. 

You’re not going to believe what happened next! As we placed some grains of rice on Brandon's grave, the sky suddenly filled up with hundreds of crows. As they caw-cawed their way across the horizon, my friend and I stared at each other in disbelief. In case you don’t know, Brandon was killed working on the set of the film The Crow. At 28, he was probably entering his first Saturn Return. Although my friend and I were unsure of what to make of so many crows appearing to us that day in that particular space, we did understand that it was some kind of message from the Beyond. 

Have you ever had an unusual experience like that? Drop us a line at gypsystars@me.com and tell us about it.

Well, the Sun has officially entered Gemini making this a good time for communications. With Mercury, Venus and Mars all in Taurus, our relationships feel steadier and we should be able to exert more patience towards others. Relationships don’t necessarily have to be romantic and can concern anyone we relate to. Whether it’s a significant other, a parent, a child, a friend, a boss or a co-worker, try a little tolerance. You’ll be surprised by how much of it you have in reserve during these days of predominate Taurus energies.

You probably already know that author George Patton is a frequent commenter on the Facebook profile for Gypsy Stars. Friend us here: http://www.facebook.com/people/Gypsy-Stars/100001436618700

George, whose novel Black Jack is about his great uncle Herman (a well-renowned magician during the Harlem renaissance), was recently featured on the radio show Coast to Coast. Check out George here:

And, George’s book is on Amazon.

That is, if we’re all still here after 6 p.m. today.

Until the end…

Good luck, light and love,

Gypsy Stars
