Future News & Commentary - What's going on the Planned Blackouts of PG&E?

Listen Now to Future News & Commentary 10.08.2019

Today’s show was dominated by the strange move of Pacific Gas & Electric to initiate massive power outages through Northern California to potentially prevent wildfires from starting from forecasted high winds. What’s going on here? Will inconveniencing over a million people for possibly days without power be good thing? We have callers with some strong opinions on this, and maps of the planned blackouts.. I might add that trying to get gas last night was quite the zoo at every station I tried to visit. There were lines of cars, and a few very short fuses amongst the people as they filled their cars and cans with the volatile liquid. If I didn’t better it would appear as if I was in some kind “Zombie Apocalypse” movie!

Interview - Self Awareness Educator Suzanne Dion on the Enneagram System

Listen right now to Suzanne Dion

Today we speak with Suzanne Dion, a brilliant, lovely researcher dedicated to her craft, which justhappensto be the Enneagram system of self-awareness. With origins going back to the Sufis and the later the spiritual teacher George Gurdjieff, Suzanne studied at the well known current Enneagram school, TNE, The Narrative Enneagram.

With psychiatrist, Dr. David Daniels, Adjunct Clinical Professor Emeritus Stanford University Medical School, she has written a major tome on the topic, “The Enneagram, Relationships, and Intimacy: Understanding One Another Leads to Loving Better and Living More Fully.” 

On today’s show, she gives us an introductory understanding of the system, using the 16-year old environmental activist, Greta Thumberg, as an example of how it works, with particular reference to issues of righteous anger and shaming.

Suzanne, as a founding board member of Enneagram Prison Project, took the Enneagram into the California jail and prison system, helping hundreds of marginalized individuals process their deep traumas.

 

One key difference with the Enneagram from say, Astrology, is that you ascertain your own personality type, rather than external factors, like your birthdate and location. So for example, Mrs. Future, though an Aries by birth, is actually a ‘7’, her ‘bon vivant’ personality traits revealed via the Enneagram. An educational and fun show, enjoy!

The Futures on the Beach with Rev Deb

We met Rev Deb on, of all places, the beach in front of our family beach house, making giant multi-colored bubbles! Yes,  the founding minister and president of Inner Light Ministries, an Omnifaith outreach ministry dedicated to teaching the practical application of Universal Spiritual Principles to ALL of life’s circumstances, was generating some pretty massive bubbles! So naturally we joined in, had a great connection and invited her onto the show, to look at how all encompassing spirituality including everyone can take us to a fantastic future! Hearing that she was leaving the current building of the ministries, we got her download on what’s next for Inner Light and the upcoming Rally Your Spirit Fest with Michael Bernard Beckwith.. Enjoy!
