Hi Keith....

Thanks for responding. I have a few more comments and questions. This
is all very interesting. I live in what some consider to be a highly
spiritual area myself. Tucson, Arizona. It's somewhat invisible to
me in that regard...but it does have good, clean energy.

Oh, yes. Along with more local places like Sedona and Santa Fe.

Faeries? Like the "little people" in Iceland, you mean?

Yes. That is exactly what I am curious about. I have this theory which
may be totally off the wall but it feels real to me. I wonder if there
is actually something on "the other side" in terms of guides for
particular areas. The purpose of the existence of Tucson would be 
different, iow, than the reasons for the existence of, say, Baltimore,
Maryland. People will be drawn to a particular place because that
place is the correct and compatible energy for that person. I also 
agree with you that sometimes there is a karmic connection of some kind. 
I happen to carry the name of a major eastern port city...and I am
by default connected to the place. In meditation, I pick up Baltimore's
energy. It's really weird. (and, no, I don't do drugs... :-) It 
actually interferes with my meditation on occasion. At first, I thought
I was crazy so I got into my old Volkswagen Rabbit, headed out I-40 
and went to Baltimore. Sure enough. It was the *very same* energy. 
It is experiences like that which prompt my question about geographic
areas and their energies.

Why is that, do you think? Is there something in the energy of Houston
that keeps you there? There is someone there that you need to make
contact with for one of two reasons: you either need to learn 
something or you need to pay a debt?

Yes. Austin is wonderful.

I would think so!

Isn't there a way you can discover what those lessons are though? There
must be some way you can find out. Have you meditated on it?

With all respect, I don't think that is the total answer. It occurs to me
that with the coming of the "new age" (I am really reticent about that
term), many people are searching for answers. And we draw to us and
create what we need to find those answers.

I think we all teach each other and learn from each other. I do firmly
believe though that we will draw the teachers we need. I also believe
there are advanced beings, entities and perhaps even advanced life forms
from other galaxies (ala the Pleiadians) that are available for teaching. 
Everything is there. We just need to be open to it. 

When something is a karmic connection, I believe that it is so powerful
that we can't avoid seeing it. I had that experience in 1994 when I
drew someone into my life who stalked me, harrassed me and ultimately
tried to kill me. I don't think those things are random. Sure enough,
I was told by a psychic advisor that I had karma with that person, 
was told what to do to pay the debt and release it. I did that and
it worked. It turns out that I drew that to me because in a previous
life, I didn't defend what was right. I had just gone along with
something although I *knew* it was wrong because I didn't want to
create conflict. 

I don't know if that will be a clue for you or not. I am still
thinking about why you might be stuck in Houston. I had to travel
2500 miles to create that situation in 1994....but it had to be
done before I could be released from it. I would like to know what
your situation is in Houston.
