How Thoughts Shape Reality
Whether you realize it or not, you are creating your reality all the time. Your reality is the perfect, exact mirror of your thoughts and what you consistently focus upon. Every thought, idea, or image in the mind has form and substance. Everything that we perceive began with a thought. The structure of our universe is thought, mind and consciousness. Consciousness determines the form of our experience. Consciousness is the “theater of perceptual awareness.” It is the collective consciousness of humanity that shapes physical reality. We are the universe made conscious to experience itself. We are mind. We live in a universe of mind. From photons to galaxies, life is conscious intelligent energy that can form itself into any pattern or function.
There is only consciousness, information and the perception of information and this facilitates the creation and experience of multiple realities. The world that you believe exists outside of you is basically an illusion – it is a purely perceptual experience. Your experiences are real, but the outer world is imaginary. Your reality is only information that was imagined into existence and is essentially just imagery that your consciousness perceives. Perception is an illusory product of consciousness. The world around you is nothing more than a very convincing perceptual illusion.
We are creating our reality with our thoughts, beliefs, intentions, and more. When we are oblivious to the power that we all share to create our collective reality, that power slips away from us and our reality becomes a nightmare. We begin to feel like victims of a dark and chaotic creation that we are unable to influence or change. We are inundated with negative world events that create anxiety, fear and hopelessness. The only way to end this dreadful reality is to awaken to the fact that it is imaginary, and recognize our ability to imagine a better story, one that the universe will work with us to manifest.
We cannot “restore” our broken reality without “restorying” our life. It is easy to create in the world that everyone believes to be true, the collective story of humanity. It is easy to reproduce and replicate the reality of the world as we know it; in fact, it is automatic. It requires no thought or awareness. We can only change our collective story by changing the way we think – by changing our beliefs, expectations and assumptions which keep us stuck in a limited perspective of our personal and social reality. Those aspects of our experience that are most enduring are the effect of habitual expectations and beliefs, or in other words, what we focus our attention on.
It is through our attention that we influence and direct the aspects of our experience and the world around us. What we pay attention to becomes what we know as ourselves and our world, for energy flows where attention goes. As positive psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi points out in his book, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience, “We create ourselves by how we invest this energy. Memories, thoughts, and feelings are all shaped by how we use it. And it is an energy under our control; hence, attention is our most important tool in the task of improving the quality of experience.”What we focus our attention on is what our life becomes – the clearer the intention, the greater the impact.
If consciousness creates reality, then change starts within. It starts with the way you observe the outer world from your inner world. You can change the outer world by changing your inner world. The world is your stage. The stage that collective reality plays out on is just there to create a context within which to play out the story of your personal reality. You can create anything you want in life, and it is not limited to what already exists in the collective reality, but it does provide a host of options to select into your life. However, they are all optional – they cannot enter into your experience unless you invite them in with your thoughts. In fact, the collective reality can be a distraction that lures you into focusing on “what is” instead of “what can be.”
Quantum physics points out that this is a participatory universe in which the power to change reality is literally in our hands at every moment. Modern physics is describing what indigenous shamans have long known. Shamans know that the creative matrix of the universe exists within human consciousness, enabling humans to participate in creation itself. For the shaman, changing reality is not just an ability, but also a duty one must perform so that future generations will inherit a world where they can live in peace, harmony and abundance.
Many people have seen Metatron’s Cube in its 2D projection. Ever wondered why “Metatrons Cube” seems to be a flat structure, but is called a “Cube” ?
Well, the long-kept secret is right in front of your eyes. The well-known, flat SYMBOL is a mere shadow (2D-projection) of the actual 3D structure!
Which contains the foundation of matter: 3 of 5 Platonic Solids: the Cube, (Star-) Tetrahedron, Octahedron, which are nested within Icosahedron and Dodecahedron (see last picture).
These fundamental geometries contain every possible molecular connection and contain countless geometric laws of this reality and universe we live in.
In the Center is a double Pyramid (an Octahedron), from its corners emerges a StarTetrahedron - MerKaBa, and together they form the Star.
Surrounding the StarTetrahedron at 90° angles are the surfaces of a perfect Cube, which is the most obvious.
The Name comes from Archangel Metatron, the supreme ‘Architect’ of our Universe, or in physical terms, the cosmic aspect which is pure Mathematics, Geometry, the Laws of Nature.
In Greek language, Meta means “Beyond” and Tron means “Matrix”. So this means beyond the matrix of our reality.
Metatrons Cube is a complex fractal, Sacred Geometry, which makes you comprehend how all sacred 3D geometries nest within each other. It is the Origin of the Flower of Life, which forms (in 3D) from the emerging Spheres of all nodes (crossing points).
From the 3-dimensional Flower of Life you get the cross-section, or 2D-projection, and from the underlying structure, called the Fruit of Life, Metatron’s Cube can be formed again - in 2D.

“You are the fabric and structure of existence itself” - Alan Watts
the ghost orchid.
Ghost Orchid (Dendrophylax lindenii)
The sloughs and swamps of Big Cypress are haunted by the tiny ghost orchid. Most of the year the orchid is just a mass of roots growing on a tree. When July comes around the mass of roots produces one of the most amazing flowers. In Big Cypress there is only one moth, the Giant Sphinx (Cocytius antaeus), whose proboscis that can pollinate this orchid.
The ghost orchid is endangered, and is often a target of poachers. Recently, Hoang Nguyen with UF grew hundreds of ghost orchids. Most of the orchids were put in Big Cypress but a few were kept and given to the Florida Museum of Natural History to educate museum visitors about this rare wonder.
