If you wish to subscribe to this F.R.E.E. newsletter, go to The Gentle Way Book and Welcomethen click on the link in the Blue Box on the right side of the home page. If you are reading this for the first time and enjoy it, please share it with your friends and family.

Keep in mind that I’ve been told that no one is perfect that does this work. I estimate that I’m around 80% to 90% accurate. Most importantly, don’t just read and go on to the next blog or newsletter. Take part when I ask you to say a Benevolent Prayer (BP) as then you are contributing to making this a better world, and it does raise your own vibrational level (aka “Ascension”).

SPECIAL NOTES:

Gaia said there would be more severe storms and tornadoes this year, Tornadoas cold fronts class with warm air masses. Chicago just had more tornadoes in their area than anytime in a previous February.

I realize there are several Benevolent Prayers to say listed below.
PLEASE TAKE THE FEW SHORT SECONDS TO SAY EACH ONE OUT LOUD. Remember, the human voice is much more powerful than people in this time period realize. I’m told there is a crescendo effect when hundreds and thousands say the BP out loud.

Let’s say this Benevolent Prayer for Israel and Palestine out loud:
"I askPalestine War protest any and all beings to aid and assist in protecting the people of Palestine and Israel from the fighting between Hamas and Israel, for those wounded to be given medical assistance, and for the hostages to be returned home unharmed with no further violence, and may there be meaningful negotiations between the two sides so that this will never occur again, thank you!"

Let's say this Benevolent Prayer for the people of UKRAINE: "I ask for any and all beings to aid, comfort, and assist the people of Ukraine to remain safe, for all prisoners of war to be treated under the rules of the Geneva Convention, for the economic sanctions imposed on Russia to Pets bookwork, for the grain to be transported, to return the thousands of Ukrainian children home, and to return the Russian and Ukrainian soldiers home, thank you!" Please say this Benevolent Prayer.

We are making a difference!

My previous book,ATLANTIS & LEMURIA—The Lost Continents Revealed! has so much information that has NEVER BEEN PUBLISHED in any other book on the subject! Here are a couple of sample chapters: Click here.

Before we move on to the rest of the newsletter, a quick explanation for my new subscribers: Theo is my own Guardian Angel (GA) with whom I communicate in meditation, along with Gaia, the Soul of the Earth, and my soul “cluster” brother, Antura (and a few others). Generally, I’ll ask Gaia the Earth questions and Theo about our lives. Now for some interesting topics of the week that YOU requested, and which will give you a DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE.

UPDATE ON UKRAINE & ISRAEL LEGISLATION

Sandy writes: Greetings! We haven't had an update on Ukraine lately and have become concerned that our highly politicized House of Reps hasn't passed the AID bill. According to the news, the Ukrainian forces are being pushed back and giving up territory to Russian incursions. Could you ask your guides if and when they see any solutions on the horizon? It is also concerning that our republican House of Reps have fumbled all the needed actions that are popular in the country in addition to Ukraine, such as Israel and the border agreements that were Border Migrantsproposed.

Any encouraging signs and insights would be appreciated! Thank you again for your newsletter and helpful insights during these trying times!


Gaia, what is the probability of the House soon passing a bill for Ukraine and Israel? And what about a Border bill?

Both Bills will be taken up again when the Representatives return from their two-week vacation. Those that will profit from the passing of the aid bills for Ukraine and Israel are leaning on those in Congress to pass the bills. There are billions of dollars at stake here and everyone has their hand out.

Regarding the Border Bill, that will take much longer. The sides are too far apart at this time, so don’t look for any real progress for six to eight months. Keep in mind this is the highest probability, but the total eclipse will come into play here.


TOTAL ECLIPSE OF 2017

Gaia, speaking of the total eclipse, what effect did the one that passed Eclipse of 2017over the United States in August 2017 have?

Its effect was more subtle than the one coming up in April. If you look at the events after the eclipse, there began a great migration. If you look at the states it passed over there were changes in millions of people.

Just a note: An article I wrote on the April 8, 2024, Total Eclipse is in the March, SEDONA JOURNAL OF EMERGENCE, page 107.

12 SIGNS OF THE ZODIAC & 12 TIMELINES

Hillary writes: I enjoy reading your books and newsletters; thank you for spreading your love and light with us! My questions for you are as follows:

1. Is there any correlation between the 12 zodiac signs and the 12 timelines? What is the highest purpose of the zodiac and are we utilizing it to our fullest potential? Is there a reason we pick our exact Zodiacdates/times of birth?

2. Richard Branson has recently been accused of being involved in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. Is there any truth to him being involved and wrong doings?


Theo, is there a correlation between the 12 zodiac signs and the 12 timelines?

Notice that both use the 12 numbering system. That is their connection.

What is the highest purpose of the Zodiac and are we utilizing it to the highest potential?

It is one of the tools given to you to assist in your lives during the Earth Experiment. It should be used much more than it is now. People do not understand the influence the planets and moon have—their energies which are different that affect the human body. There is still much to learn by scientists about these energies.

Is there a reason for exact dates and times?

Yes, again it has to do with how these energies affect the human bodies. Scientists still have so much to learn and there are still discoveries to be made of another planet.

Was Richard Branson involved with Epstein?

Not with the underage girls. Keep in mind that Epstein courted all the wealthy people looking for signs of weakness.

ALEXEI NAVALNY’S DEATH

Catherine writes: Freedom fighter and persistent Putin gadfly, Alexei Navalny has been reported dead in the Polar Wolf prison.

Any insights from Theo into how "close to script" was the life of this Russian lawyer, anti-corruption activist and leader of the Future Party? I Navalnyknow he awakened and engaged many in the West with his courage, his humor and his life vitality.


Theo, how did Alexei Navalny die?

As was speculated, he was poisoned on Putin’ orders.

What quadrant was he in and his soul contract?

Middle of the Young Soul third quadrant. This was a significant life for him. He will be back soon for another life. His soul contract was to be a martyr and cause change in his home country.

MORE QUESTIONS FOR ANTURA

For my new readers, for many years people have seen strange objects in the sky, but were kept from reporting them, for fear of being ridiculed. But recently, thanks to a Congressional Hearing, we’re hearing and seeing almost hundreds each week. Are these extraterrestrial, or some secret aircraft developed by the United States and other countries?

In 2008, my GA introduced me to an ET (I prefer you use this termFirst Contact book instead of “aliens”), who I was to discover is a member of my soul group or “cluster,” as Theo calls them, meaning he is a fragment of the same soul I’m a fragment of. Antura is an amphibian from the planet Nommo in the Sirius B Star System and is presently on a huge mothership 50 miles above us, cloaked so that they don’t scare us to death, along with around 24 other motherships. This mothership is three miles wide on the outside and twenty stores tall with 11 decks. Inside, due to the difference between the four negative energies we live in and their ten positive energies, it is approximately fifteen miles wide. It has a crew of 900, plus their families totaling 1,500 people from 37 different planets.

Day and night they send out scout ships and drones to take millions of readings, just as do the other motherships.
When I recently asked Antura how many different types of ships and drones are there covering the Earth, he said, “1,000.” That’s because the Federation of Planets spans over 20,000 planets in this quadrant of the Milky Way Galaxy. He compares the differences like we would different models of cars. You Types of UFOscan read much more about Antura, his planet, the mothership, and what purpose he has being on the mothership in my book FIRST CONTACT: Conversations with an ET. Here are more questions I asked this week, after several links to UFO sightings and interviews sent to me by Mantej, my “researcher,” who volunteered for the job when I did not have time to do so myself. Image by Sofia Goldberg

The first one is one of the best interviews I have ever seen. It took me two days to get through this, but Harvard Law Attorney Daniel Sheehan names names, even the kill squad formed by Nixon that eventually assassinated Kennedy. He has formed a non-profit association to force the release of information about crash retrievals of ET space craft and the back engineering by large companies financed by tax payer money. 3:29 min.

Antura in the wings with my teammates and the Pleiadian monitoring.

Good morning, everyone or good day.

Antura, I have not asked this before but when the ETs were duplicating humans in 2.5 minutes to be placed on Earth, were those chambers or pods, and were they vertical or horizontal?


Good questions. They were not chambers, per se, more towards a pod,Spaceship pod depiction especially designed for human bodies, and they were horizontal. They did not want the bodies to fall over during the duplication. They would then climb out of the pods and would be directed to a room where they would wait until all the bodies would be duplicated to be taken as a group down to Earth.

Before being taken on the transport vehicle, it would be explained to them telepathically where they were going, and what they needed to do to survive. Keep in mind they were not given any clothes nor any form of protection. They all had to quickly learn how to find food and how to clothe themselves before the coming cold weather. These were groups of around 30 dropped far enough away from each other so that they would not have to compete for food.


How is a soul requested for each body?

That would be far beyond your understanding at this time. You were told before that even several thousand years from now when humans learn how to make androids, ETs will have to assist in requesting souls to inhabit the bodies you create.

You would think that all you would have to do would be to have a Golden Light being (aka GA) to find a likely young soul to ensoul the body.

But it is not that easy.

Antura, is the large 900-mile wide Pleiadian ship (mentioned last week)Huge ET Ship depiction still in our solar system?

No, it has withdrawn, since there was too big a chance of it being seen with the more modern equipment and telescopes of today.

Mantej writes: Ross Coulthart investigates large UFO that traveled across the UK in 1993. Click here.

What was the large triangle UFO in England in 1993 doing and its origin?

It was making itself known, knowing that it would become much more well known in this time period, after people got over not wanting to talk about what they had seen, when people were making fun of those who reported UFOs.

Antura, what is the Octagon reported in Antarctica? Is it real?

It is, Tom. There are ETs and humans working there.Antarctic Station depiction

Why?

That we are not allowed to say at this time, but it is benevolent, not some sinister work.

Why such a large structure?

It has to do with what they are doing.

This sounds totally like an invention in sci-fi.

More will be learned about this in the not-too-distant future.

Those are all my questions today, Antura. Waiting on us meeting soon.

It will be soon, Tom.

MBOs FOR TRAVEL, BABY, PROTECTION

This story, and the next three, originally appeared last week in my BENEVOLENT OUTCOMES BLOG. Please go to www.thegentlewaybook.com/blog to read hundreds of more stories that Baby in car seatare archived there from people living THE GENTLE WAY!

Teri-Marie writes: I just want to say thank you for guiding us how to request prayers.

Since then I have had so many of my prayers answered from traveling safely, and clear traffic, helping the baby sleep during long trip, get to doctor appointments on time, keeping a troubled person away, and wonderful healing from a long-term injury.

MBOs FOR DOCTOR APPOINTMENT, PARKING

Deb in Minnesota writes: Yesterday I had two doctor appointments. Both docs have been known to be late. So, I said a few MBOs for the Doctor's Officedoctors to be on time, getting good parking places, etc.

Everything worked out well. The first doctor got to me right away and we found a good parking place. The other appointment was for late in the afternoon, so I said a few more MBOs for being seen promptly, for my appointment to go well, a good parking place, etc. I only had to wait for about 10 minutes for the nurse to take me in and we got out of there in a reasonable time. We were even able to get to a restaurant early enough so that it wasn't too crowded for a Friday evening.

I passed all my post-surgery tests this week and am doing much better. So happy!
Of course, I said MBOs to ace the tests as well.

MBOs FOR TRIP, AIRPORT CONNECTION

Dee in New York writes: My husband and I just arrived home from a trip, and I have to share our story. I was anxious about this trip as my husband is dealing with a leg injury and not getting around well, but we decided to go anyway as we were meeting family there.

The morning of the trip I awoke at 1:11 am, which is odd for me and Airportwhich I took to be a good omen.
Prior to leaving, I asked for an MBO for our trip, so that everything went smoothly. I was especially worried about a short transfer time at our connecting airport, so imagine my surprise when I found out that we would be taking the same plane to our final destination, without having to change terminals!

Without going into a lot of detail about our trip, everything went as smoothly and easily as possible, given my husband's injury. He is scheduled to see a doctor this week to find out exactly what is going on, but I had to write and tell you how relieved I was that everything went so well. Our Guardian Angels were certainly keeping watch over us during this trip, and I just wanted to share our story with you.
I practice saying MBOs daily and have noticed a difference. Thank you so much for all you do and for sharing what you know.

MBOs FOR VACATION, BOUNDARIES

Severine writes from China: Here are some fresh BPs.

Restful and peaceful Chinese New Year holidays!

I was a bit anxious over the holidays.


I requested an MBO for restful and peaceful holidays and posted the same BP in our WhatsApp group one month before the actual trip. The trip went way better than I could hope or expect. Here you go:

Perfect unfolding of the holidays Chinese decorations
1)
I ask any and all beings across timelines to arrange a perfect Chinese New Year holiday for x family with a perfect unfolding! Please facilitate positive interactions and a wonderful rest! Lots of healing white light and miracles for all involved, venues and cheap and safe trips, and I ask that we make on time for our trains! May the outcome be better than expected, thank you.

Happy New Year of the Dragon to everyone!

Tip for everyone: I have found it is also helpful to add the venues when you want to experience more peaceful interactions.

2) Be protected from negativity, have your boundaries respected!

I request an MBO to be fully protected with my family from any type of negativity. I request an MBO for my boundaries to respected at all times, thank you, plus a BP I ask any and all beings to assist everyone I connect with, and specifically xyz to respect my boundaries, and please surround everyone and all venues with healing white light, thank you!

Last tip for those who enjoy to request many MBOs and BPs daily and discuss newsletters and have WhatsApp :

Please feel free to request for me, Severine, to be added to the WhatsApp group
severinechinavasion (at) gmail.com

Severine will send you a link to join.

This is 100% free of charge and we have many Manifested BPs every week!


STONE FACES

Maria sent this to me on Facebook, but I could not locate it or the images of the weird faces.

Gaia, what is the story of the many stone faces? Were they alive at one time?


They were in a sense, Tom. The soul that inhabits those stones decided to express itself by forming human type faces. I allowed it, as it added to the mysteries of planet Earth, while the soul greatly enjoyed the ability to create art—sculptures in its own way. And of course, it attracts people to admire and wonder.

SOUND OF A HORN

Katherine writes from Houston: What are the loud horn sounds coming from the sky worldwide for the last few years? I heard it twice in the last month, and it's very out-of-this-world and spooky sounding. It seems to be happening more frequently now. Some people are calling it 'sky trumpets" and say it's evidence of the end times.

I've researched it and could not find a credible expert who gave a definitive answer. It's very upsetting because it's so strange and large. AShip Horn few nights ago, it happened at 5:05 a.m., and came with two extremely bright flashes of light inside my bedroom, even though the blinds were closed. My neighbors' power went out, although mine did not, and their dogs started barking. Some of my neighbors slept right through it. The sounds are deep and low, almost like a foghorn but extremely loud. There are postings all over social media about it. Would you ask Gaia - what is it and what does it mean?


Here is a recording that sounded similar to what I heard: Click here.

Gaia, what are the weird horn sounds that have been reported all over the world and that I heard in a recording?

When the atmospheric conditions are just right, these horn sounds originate from ships—not ETs but ocean-going vessels. The sound bounces off a layer of clouds. Tests will be done in the future that will verify this.

END OF QUALIFIED IMMUNITY

Dragana writes: I saw you first on Linda G’s channel and have been following you ever since.
Have your book and I love your newsletters. First time asking questions though.

Are we going to see an end to qualified immunity and some sort of Police Traffic Stoppolice reform in the US any time soon?

Constant reports of police abusing their power, violating citizens’ rights, simple traffic stops ending in death, as well as many videos on YouTube of aggressive police encounters with citizens, all because they are protected by qualified immunity, are truly disturbing.


Theo, will we see an end to “qualified immunity” violating citizen rights and if so the highest probability of when this will happen?

This will be done on a national level in Congress. It cannot be left for the states to address this one by one. This will happen in the next 5 to 7 years. You can post a benevolent prayer for everyone to say that will help reduce the length of time.

Let’s say this Benevolent Prayer out loud: “I ask any and all beings to aid and assist in a Bill to be passed in Congress to end “qualified immunity” by all police departments, thank you!”

GUNS FOR GROCERIES NATIONAL PROPOSAL

For my new readers, I am proposing a national gun buyback program that would have bipartisan support in Congress, because it is STRICTLY VOLUNTARY.

Mass shootings have started off to a gun blazing start in 2024 with already 70 mass shootings recorded, including the mass shooting in Kansas City, where 22 people were injured and one killed. That is up from last week’s 55!

Add
Flint, Michigan to the list of cities that have held a gun buyback Flint Michigan Gun Buy Backevent. On February 3, 2024, they collected 85 guns that were turned in. Now the Michigan State Police are trying to figure out how to destroy them—one of the main problems police departments face when they hold these events. Last April, New York Attorney General Letitia James sponsored a one-day statewide buyback that brought in a whopping 3,076 firearms. New York City has the best program at the present time—a permanent offer of $200 for any firearm.

When candidates for elected office voice support for mandatory buybacks, they usually mean they would push for legislation requiring Americans with high-capacity assault weapons to trade them to a government entity." I will also add here that providing
FREE gun locks at the drop off centers would also contribute to a reduction in gun violence.

One problem is that these events are underfunded. They run out of gift Houston Gun Buy backcards in the first couple of hours.


So why not email or call your Congress-person or Senator and suggest that they get behind a BIPARTISAN bill to help lower gun violence in the United States. You can also list my phone number and email address if they wish to contact me. The AVAZZ link is www.tinyurl.com/guns-for-groceries . Here is more information below, so that you can get on the bandwagon. It will raise your vibrational level!

MORE INFORMATION: WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HAVING THIS ENACTED BY CONGRESS?
  1. This will have bipartisan support since it does not require anyone to do anything. It is ALL VOLUNTARY!
  2. No money is given that can be used to buy more guns.
  3. Payment is made with money cards that can only be used at supermarkets or grocery stores.
  4. People are concerned that only law-abiding citizens will give up their guns. Over weeks and months there will be people who turn in guns because someone in their family may be considering suicide or going on a shooting spree.
  5. This would be overseen by the ATF, instead of the Justice Department. They would collect the guns once a month (or sooner) and destroy them the same way they destroy other confiscated guns. This also ensures that some local police department will not sell them out the back door.
  6. Another possible benefit I have not mentioned before: Presenting this bill before Congress will allow for Amendments to be voted on. Perhaps one or two might pass this time. We won’t know unless we find a Congressperson or Senator to sponsor the bill.
