About choices I have made in life that have led me to where I am now. Recorded by the stream in the breezy woods below our farm. I chose to live in this beautiful, uplifting place, and some think I am lucky to do so, but everything in life charges its price, and this is the result of choices and sacrifices I have made - it's not luck. 

Actually, in dealing with cancer, living here has been a great medicine for me. Our free will hangs around the extent to which we exercise our capacity to choose. Yes, things get really difficult, and shit happens, and it can all take time and effort, but we do have choice - especially at certain key points in life where fundamentals get decided.

So this is about our fears, guilt and shame and stepping over them to move forward. Hold with the magic of your soul's golden thread.

Recorded just down the field by the stream, on an ancient trackway on our farm, running between two prehistoric sites here in West Penwith - Botrea Barrows and Caer Bran. Insights on life, on time and on prehistoric civilisation in Cornwall, and the way that ancient megalithic knowhow is becoming increasingly relevant to us today. It's not just a fascination with prehistory: it concerns the next level of civilisation.

About the inner secrets of prehistoric deep-energy technology. Power points in space and power points in time, and the way these were used for the reformulation of the heart of reality. The ancients didn't need gene editing, nuke power, space exploration or tech fixes of the kind we know - they had other ways of doing things back in the 3000s and 2000s BCE, and we now need to learn about how they did this. This is all about megalithic consciousness engineering, and how we might be able to fix our climate, ecosystem and society in a way that brings a much deeper breakthrough for humanity.

Here are some pics of stone circles in West Penwith, Cornwall - for your interest.

Recorded by a stream just down the field on our farm, by the woods. What is going to bring about a fundamental change to the world? About collective consciousness and the beliefs, values and choices that humanity now faces. Uprisings and movements for change, and the importance of shared beliefs and viewpoints in bringing about change. Without such psychosocial changes in society, environmental, climatic, social justice and other issues cannot be progressed. We're in a phase where we need to reassess the fundamental tenets of civilisation - why we're here and what on earth we really are doing. People do want to live in a more human society. We need to develop a world consensus about where we're going.

An astrologer who has studied and written about history all his life pronounces on the course of coming times. What I believe will be the global process of the 21st Century, and how we might or might not get there - to where we need to go, whatever shape that actually takes. This is about a coming avalanche of events of the late 2020s, the stresses of the 2030s, the global crunch-point of 2048 and the new start that could dawn after the 2060s - depending on what we as humans actually do with our situation. We have already entered times of deep choice - this started in the 1960s, ramped up around 1989 and became a hard fact around 2008-12. The process we go through to get to the big answers is what we face now.

Should this subject interest you, my book Power Points in Time tells all - about astrology, time-cycles and the way time passes.

If you understand astrological charts, here are charts for the crunch-points mentioned in this podcast: http://palden.co.uk/pod-notes-7.html

This is all about the future, the collective psyche and the dawning of a planetary consensus and awareness.

Woo, that sounds big, but it isn't quite so big. This is about how humanity is moving painfully toward becoming one planetary race by going through an excruciating process of truth-finding, inner change and focusing of collective consciousness - toward something that helps us survive and move forward.

Humanity is a tribal animal and the ultimate tribe is the whole of humankind. This is all about being human, being part of an enormous family.

All the same, this involves wading through a lot of really real issues - geopolitical, technical, economic, demographic, environmental - and the full range of issues involved is reviewed in my free online report, Possibilities 2050. But this podcast is about pulling it all together.

I'm quite good at joining dots, you see...

Introduced by crows and geese. Recorded at the Nine Maidens stone circle in West Penwith, Cornwall, UK. Here I share my understanding of the real reasons why the ancients built stone circles and built them where and how they did - for consciousness work and the energy-raising of the subtle fields of the Earth. These people were advanced, working with stuff that we need to learn about now, at this time of history.

Introduced by a skylark and recorded on the Botrea Barrows on top of a high hill on our farm in the centre of West Penwith. About ancient landscapes and prehistoric landscape management, and how and why ancient people did it. 

Also about the 2020 G7 Conference, which was at the time of recording soon to take place just a few miles from where I live, in St Ives, Cornwall. This is about innerwork to influence such things - providing an alternative to protest. 

The podcast gives a small example of the uplifting effects of sitting on an ancient power point, and the insights that can come up when you do so.

About organic farming (after all, I do live on a farm) and its deeper role in sculpting the world's future. With some buzzing and chirruping in the background. Recorded at my place on the farm, on a nice sunny summer's day.

About the way the knowledge and technologies of the ancient past - the neolithic and the bronze age - need to be brought into the present and the future to help the fixing of planet Earth. About ancient power points and the shamanistic cultures of ancient times, by which prehistoric peoples worked with the character and patterning of the morphogenetic fields of nature. They engaged in what I call megalithic geoengineering - the engineering of consciousness and deeper levels of reality.
