A National Animal Rights March was organised in UK on 1 November 2025 being the second one this year for Animal Rights in the UK. Veganism is about total freedom from exploitation or control of life of every individual sentient being. It is about rights to not be used or abused, because using others is equally an abuse, being an act of injustice or oppression. It is not primarily about climate change or about human physical health, but about not having victims at all, which is necessary as a part of being a reasonable and good human being of the right behaviour standards. Being vegetarian or not eating ‘meat’ (animal dead bodies) is not enough. We must all go Vegan and stop using non human animals or any animal products or services, entirely, just as we do not use human beings as slaves, objects, or our properties.

Plase share the video and photos and encourage the world to Go Vegan everyday.

Blessings of the Hallowed Season of Samhain!

Every Halloween, witches have been misrepresented in media, brewing dark potions with eyes of newt, tongues of dog, and dragon’s blood. From Shakespeare’s “bubble, bubble, toil and trouble” to TV shows like Charmed, magic was often imagined as something wicked — full of animal parts and sinister ingredients. While Veganism is about not exploiting non human animals, Wicca is meant to be a path of positive witchcraft which includes not harming anyone, and being against all evil overall to the best possible extent.

Evidently, the truth about these ingredients used by witches in potions, is far gentler — and far greener.
Real witchcraft has always been rooted in plants, not cruelty. And Halloween as it is called now, was originally Hallows Eve or Samhain, a sacred festival of celebrating the final harvest of the year with pumpkins, apples, candied fruits, and lights, just like Diwali in Hinduism is too a celebration of the harvest and a new year for pagans or plant farmers at the summer’s end, with presents, fruits, nuts and decorations of light. This is a global time for celebrating the bounty of Earth mother or Lakshmi, whether in the West or the East. The use of animal milk or dairy, animal gelatin sweets, animal body products for food or any other evil ingredients in food, worship, or magic is simply repugnant and unnecessary.

The old “body part” names were never literal. They were secret herbal codes — poetic metaphors used by healers and wise women to protect their craft when magic was forbidden. What sounded eerie was simply earthly.

The Secret Language of the Wise

When you read that a witch added Eye of Newt to her potion, she was actually using mustard seeds — tiny and golden like a newt’s eye.
Bat’s Wings? Those were holly leaves, protective and spiky like wings in flight.
And Tongue of Dog was houndstongue, a soft-leaved herb used for grounding and courage.

Even the “pigs’ feet” shown in Hollywood cauldrons of witchcraft in Charmed, could simply mean Pigweed (Amaranth), a nourishing plant used for health and strength and also for protection against evil.

Ancient herbalists used these coded names both to guard their knowledge and to speak in symbols. Magic was never about harm — it was about understanding nature’s hidden language.

Plant-Based Magic for the Modern Witch

As vegan witches, we continue this tradition with compassion.
Instead of animal-based products like honey, we can use Honeysuckle in spells for sweetness, attraction, and love — no bees exploited, and the symbolism remains pure.

Dragon’s Blood isn’t blood at all, but a deep red tree resin used for protection and empowerment. I used to sell these in my store called Magick in Mumbai.

Devil’s Claw sounds frightening but is simply a healing root used for releasing negativity.

Every animal body part sounding name has a positive truth inside it — a lesson in transformation, the very heart of witchcraft.

Decoding Shakespeare’s Potion

In Macbeth, the witches chant:

“Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog…”

To the uninitiated, it sounds like a horror scene — but to herbalists, it’s simply a recipe written in code:

Eye of Newt – Mustard SeedToe of Frog – ButtercupWool of Bat – Moss or HollyTongue of Dog – Houndstongue herb

So if you use the right plant based ingredients, it is not an evil brew at all, but a poetic herbal spell for transformation, written in the language of nature.

To be fair you could change the rhyme a bit. Why not ‘Double Double, Success Double, Take Away all Toil and Trouble‘? (As I wrote in my book Yes, You Are a Witch/ You Are the Magick). Sounds and feels way better than ‘bubble bubble toil and trouble’ anyday! A good witch will use magic for banishing misfortunes and replacing them with positive energy in our lives instead of brewing even more toil and trouble than what we already endure. And in order to handle enemity or evil beings, we do not send toil or trouble to them, but rather repel evil beings away. That truly is the path of real ‘wit’ and deep ‘wisdom’ which is real witchcraft – the craft of the wise.

Some other eerie sounding names of plants which are not animal body parts at all (and if people knew these they would stop killing innocent animals for cures and magical remedies or luck):

Rabbit’s Foot – Davillaya plantDragon’s Blood – Cinnabar tree sapWish bone – Turenia pansyWhite Man’s Foot – Common PlantainGraveyard Dust – MulleinLizard’s Leg – IvyLamb’s Ear – BetonyHens and Chicks – SempervivumHorse’s Tongue – Heart’s tongue fernSparrows’ tongue – Armstrong Lion’s Tooth – DandelionSwine Snout – Dandelion leavesWolf’s Foot – BugleweedDog’s Mouth – SnapdragonPig’s Ears – Round leaved navelwortBone of Ibis – BuckthornElephant Ear – PurpureaAss’s Ear – ComfreyDragon’s Scale – TaroTear’s of Himadryas Babboon – Dill juiceAdder’s Tongue – Trout LillyBear’s Foot – Lady’s MantleBird’s Foot – FenugreekCrow’s Feather – Foam FlowerTiger’s Claw/ Devil’s Claw – Martynya AnnuaWood Spider/ Devil’s Claw – Grapple plantCat’s Claw/ Hawk’s Claw – Unkaria TomatosaGall of Goat – HoneysuckleCat’s Tail – Reed MaceCrab Eye – Coral Bead PlantLady’s Finger – Okra

As an easy guide also remember that blood in herbal magick simply means the sap of the tree, milk simply means plant secretion, foot or ear usualy stands for the leaves of the plants, guts for roots, hair for fine roots, eyes for the whole flower circles, tongue for petals, eggs for fruits, tears for seeds, flesh for stem or fruit flesh, toes for small leaves and wool for moss.

The Witch’s True Magic

Real witches — ancient or modern — are healers, herbalists, and guardians of life.
Our cauldrons are filled not with suffering, but with seeds, roots, leaves, and blossoms for love, prosperity, protection, and health. We stir teas for wellbeing, create tinctures for healing, and burn incenses for meditation

Magic isn’t about commanding dark forces or using demons for fulfilling sinful wishes at all. It’s about repelling dark forces away and keeping safe from them, as well as working in harmony with the living Earth in order to make our life positive in a real way, not just in thoughts but also in practicality. Witchcraft is practical magic of everyday life, with potions steeped with wisdom, stones for building positive realities, smoke of purification, candles of light, and of course positive intentions in words to energise our mind, body and spirit and protect our life, home and hearth.

So next time someone criticizes witchcraft or magic, please guide them towards the truth and dispel myths to make the world a better place for all beings.

Closing Blessing

May your spells be kind, your herbs be green,
Your cauldron bubble, with courage unseen,
May you flourish and grow, in kindness and peace
May your success and prosperity never cease
May all evil beings leave you unharmed
And may your life be magically charmed
By earth and fire, wind and sea
By the Spirit, Blessed Be!

Not All Who Claim to Be Empaths Are Healers: Discernment in Spiritual Spaces

In today’s increasingly awakened world, more people are identifying as empaths, starseeds, or lightworkers—and many are also recognising traits of neurodivergence such as Autism, ADHD, or AuDHD. While these identities may overlap, it’s crucial to understand that raw sensitivity alone does not make someone a healer.

There is a growing need for discernment in spiritual spaces—especially among those who are truly here to uplift humanity, guide others, and hold space for real transformation.

Sensitivity ≠ Spiritual Mastery

Many individuals who feel deeply, have vivid dreams, or are easily overwhelmed identify as empaths or psychics. However, true spiritual ability requires more than emotional intensity. It involves:

Focused intentEnergetic clarityEthical boundariesConsistent practiceIntegration of trauma and ego

Without these qualities, even those with potential may cause harm—either to themselves or to others seeking help.

Traits of a Genuine Healer, Empath, or Mystic

Authentic spiritual practitioners, whether neurodivergent or not, show:

Energetic Precision – They direct energy with intent for healing, manifestation, or clearing.Trained Intuition – They calibrate insight through feedback, experience, and mentorship.Grounded Presence – They remain centred even in spiritual intensity or emotional turmoil.Clear Boundaries – They can distinguish between their own emotions and others’ energies.Disciplined Practice – They maintain rituals, meditations, and psychic hygiene regularly.Discernment – Knowing and protecting own energy from that of entities or unwanted spirits.Accuracy – Guidance through own inner wisdom and verifiable psychic information.

These traits arise from inner healing, study, and sincere application, not just from natural sensitivity.

When Neurodivergence Isn’t Enough

While some neurodivergent individuals have remarkable intuition, others may be:

Disorganised, unfocused, or overwhelmed.Prone to misinterpretation of spiritual data.Stuck in trauma loops or executive dysfunction.Unable to commit to consistent healing or ritual work.

Sensitivity may be the seed—but spiritual mastery is the garden that grows from effort, grounding, and intention.

Narcissists Who Pose as Healers or Empaths

A rising concern is the number of individuals with Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) or strong narcissistic traits who claim to be gifted empaths or spiritual teachers. These individuals:

Use spiritual labels to inflate their ego.Isolate or shame others while claiming moral superiority.Accuse real empaths or victims of being “toxic.”Avoid inner work while demanding admiration.

Despite their grand spiritual claims, they often lack the capacity for true self-reflection, meditation, compassion, or healing. Their work is rooted in performance—not purpose.

The Dark Empath: Empathy Used for Manipulation

Not all empathy is benevolent. Some individuals—known as dark empaths—possess cognitive or logical empathy, which they use to read emotions, manipulate, and control others.

Dark empaths may:

Use occult knowledge or spiritual language to justify harm.Practice dark magic, curses, or energetic attacks under the guise of “justice” or “karma.”Feign compassion to gain power, admiration, or control.Prey on vulnerable or trauma-exposed people within spiritual spaces.

Empathy without ethics becomes a tool for psychic and emotional domination.

Psychic & Emotional Energy Vampires

Many healers encounter clients, peers, or followers who repeatedly drain their energy. Often, these are individuals suffering from unresolved trauma, depression, or personality disorders, including covert narcissism, borderline personality, or emotional instability.

These people:

Pull you into endless emotional dramas.Show resistance to real healing but demand constant attention.Use spiritual help as a source of energetic supply, not growth.Leave you feeling exhausted, unclear, or disconnected from your own work.Devalue and use you as a healer for free work, or refuse to reward and praise you.

They can derail your mission and prevent you from helping those who are truly ready to heal and evolve.

Boundaries Are Not Cruel — They Are Sacred

As an empath or spiritual teacher, it’s essential to remember:

Not everyone is yours to heal.Some are here to test your boundaries, not receive your medicine.Compassion does not mean self-sacrifice.Your mission, time, and energy are precious.

You are here to support truth-seekers, sincere students, and willing souls—not to be drained by those who refuse responsibility or manipulate your kindness.

Final Reflection: Discernment Is Love in Action

Being a healer or empath isn’t about labels—it’s about:

Integrity.Consistency.Responsibility.Ethical service.Deep personal healing.

The spiritual path is not a popularity contest, nor a place for unchecked ego or unhealed wounds to masquerade as wisdom. It is a sacred calling that requires vigilance, humility, and boundaries.

Protect your energy. Honour your calling. Serve those who are ready.

Q. How do Narcissistic abusers and demonic Energy Vampires operate?
Detailed Answer by Rev. Swati Prakash, Wiccan and Ascension Coach, http://www.askswati.com

***(Please save it and refer to this article often. No plagiarism please, reproduce on request and give due credit as all of the below is by personal and professional experience and not AI written or sourced from others). ***

A key issue in Ascension is to leave the Matrix of control. This control is perpetrated by people from around who use various strategies. This is what empaths and kind people as well as Healers and Vegans (yes we are targeted too by ‘compassion’ seekers) need to learn.

Narcissistic abusers and energy vampires chase you or find you as they are hugely after people (energy supply). They are predators from within. They hunt for people.They choose you for your Aura (your positive energy field which attracts them). Also they are equally jealous or intimidated by it which is why they seek to harm or destroy those who shine.They usually select people who seem brilliant, intelligent or beautiful (especially women). They even call us Narcissists because they have no idea what a Narcissist is. They falsely think that genuinely talented, attractive, popular and smart or good people are Narcissists. They hate the fame and good renown you have or potentially might gain.They are often after empaths, soft spoken people or friendly and giving people, vegans, and good witches. Because they know you are non violent and harmless and do not hurt, exploit or abuse others. (They think they can make their way in, use you and get away).They also choose people more successful than them, more talented or reputed beings including stars, in order to harm and bring down their personality, glory and self confidence.They actively seek out Tarot readers, Wiccan healers and energy healers who are capable and try to get free help from them in order to drain them. This is why many of us are single and at peace in our own space.Women are at a greater risk due to religious and cultural domination of men in most societies which makes those men as well as their enabling women relatives especially prone to being abusive, jealous and controlling. Marriage is usually manipulative and a glorified way of control in many cases.Abusers including demons and energy vampires believe in an external individual entity whom they call God or in multiple deities as if they were real beings and not personifications. They believe especially in a male authority figure as the creator of nature and do not understand how to respect nature as infinite energy that is neither created nor destroyed.Abusers and controlling people usually lack skills in Reiki healing, real positive magic and energy channeling and depend on other humans or non human animals or religious communities, spiritual circles or communes to energise themselves. If they are taught such skills the energy gets sucked out by them into a vacant cold blackhole as they cannot conduct it through and give it to others or to nature or the planet. They also suck energy out of nature or crystals instead of energising earth with their powers.They might also have dependencies on drugs or substances, specific foods or alcohol or on sex and emotional supply and cannot control or regulate their own energy well.They especially get pleasure by controlling others in order to feel powerful or by harming someone financially or in career or personal life by making someone feel less empowered or more answerable to them.Their aim is to ‘humble you’ or ‘bring your ego down’ if they see you being confident or succeeding or attracting audience, receiving fame or goodwill. This is one of their biggest features. They wish to destroy your power to reach out to the world. They also fear you if you are powerful enough and believe you can harm them by ‘black magic’ even if you are a good witch.They will try to take your time away gradually towards listening to their personal dramas or giving them personal attention so that you have less time and energy for your goals.They usually present themselves as positive or good people or pretend to be compatible and mirror you to build trust and a connection. Only strong intuitive and empaths will figure them out quite fast especially when they see the Narcissist taking undue interest in them or ‘love bombing’ them.They will not take no for an answer especially in friendship, business, projects, or sex. It is their way or the highway. Your wishes are not considered equally. They lack empathy.They will start saying they love you or start flattery or oversharing pretty early on even if you are not emotionally ready. They will try to make their way into your life. They do not understand boundaries.No matter how you say no or tell them you didn’t want something or express your autonomy they will override it and try to maintain control overtly or manipulatively (covertly). They test your boundaries regularly.People around might lack intuition and see them as warm, loving, empathetic snd charming. But intelligent intuitive know something is off. Over time you see they are discriminatory, not really a vegan who is against all exploitation (maybe just plant based for food), have misplaced ideas or notions, and sometimes are transphobes or genderists, sexist, racist, homophobic, or quite toxic. They don’t have ethics right.They are desperate for love or emotional or sexual energy. They badly need you. Empaths do not need anyone. We are happy to energise ourselves. We focus on our work.They criticise or argue unnecessarily but if you say anything even indirectly regarding how you feel, they might rebuke you or prevent your self expression. They can also spread negative gossip or false rumours about you to isolate you with ‘flying monkeys’ and enablers in tow. They get very chatty with them.Not all Narcissists are grandiose or project a sense of domination. Many are vulnerable or pitiable and claim to be trauma affected or broken and abused victims who constantly need others to ‘complete’ them and blame everyone else. Therapy never works on them.Not all are overt or obviously controlling or abusive. Some are sly or covert and often come across and timid, introverted, quiet, soft spoken or ‘subtly attractive’… and try to gain sympathy or empathy (suck energy) from others in a quiet way.Covert manipulations include backhanded compliments, cheating, lying, confusing others, triangulation, trying to subtly put you down, rejecting you when you deserve the praise or opportunity, preferring others over you after initially chasing you, playing hot then cold and giving you strange looks or criticism unnecessarily.Alternating cycles of love or praise followed by abuse or manipulation build a trauma bond because the victim seeks the good times to return periodically and hopes that they can turn it around by positive thinking and patience all of which fails on the narcissist. It’s a total waste of your energy.They will guilt trip you as a covert tactic to make you give more attention to them if you withdraw affections or choose to be strong or sound in your decisions or decide to keep them at bay.They will gaslight you to make you feel the issue is with your behaviour. You will end up questioning yourself and try to be even nicer to them.You will be trained to be their victim and continue being treated that way over time.If they don’t discard you (or reverse discard you by making you leave out of frustration) they will continue the relationship if they choose you as a permanent supply. If this is so they will probably make it nearly impossible for you to exit the relationship and will keep hoovering you back in again.They control your wherabouts, your choices and opinions, your wishes, dreams, career, finances, and might need to know what you are into, what you are upto, even in your free time away from them. They watch or keep an eye on you. Spouses, relatives, friends..obsessed with you, often in the guise of protecting you. Narcissistic parents control their adult children and seek the support of even their young kids, expecting kids to please them or be an extension of them. They do not honour boundaries and let you be free. They are intrusive. They can say they love you and till hurt you or use you at the same time. They do not understand non abusive and mutually respectful and mutually giving behaviour or fairness. Remember Veganism is about fairness and jusice not about compassion necessarily. Wicca too is about the same to not harm others or accept harm to self. The Wiccan Rede states ‘fairly take and fairly give’.They expect your forgiveness and unconditional love and to make you accept their poor behaviour standards and inconsistencies or even their lower intelligence. Remember the part of the Wiccan Rede: ‘With a fool no seasons spend or be counted as their friend’.Their focus is to make themselves the centre of your life in any way possible or make you feel deeply affected or hurt by them or miss them and make them occupy your mind in any way they can.The core of the abuser is hollow or empty. They lack a sense of self or connection with the higher self and derive satisfaction from either being overtly rude, manipulative or covertly controlling or condescending.They also lack true expertise or knowledge but think they know it all or are great or good looking or ’empaths and healers’ when they are not trained or professionally sound (except in negative energy work). They create a false narrative or delusional fantasy or a false self image in their head about how good they are and project it in order to envelop their hollow within.Some additionally develop psychopathic and sadistic tendencies over time on top of their hollow core and narcissistic delusion to further their pride so they do not change or feel genuine remorse.They can suddenly exhibit rage or anxiety and controlling behavior yet blame it on something else in order to manipulate you into allowing it.They do not understand your reactions to their behaviour while making themselves feel entitled to what they do and get from you or get away with.Their aura gives them away. A falseness in voice or way of speaking or expression. Angry or sarcastic tones. Self important body language. Nervousness or anxious vibes. Fake smiles. Vacant eyes. Stupor or emaciated appearence. Sad look. Always looking for connection or sympathy. Controlling of friends, family and colleagues. Yet getting away with it by making yo be nice to them and accept them against your intuition.If you allow it the abuse or manipulation will increase in time, or get worse but you will be trained to get used to it making you even more vulnerable to more such abuse including from other predators. Remember they are predators and their species as a soul is dangerous and they will be so… no matter how much you try to protect yourselves.The only way out is to not just cut off but unplug or remove all energy cords not just communication channels and the prime solution is energetic. The worst ones or demonic beings require banishing or vanquishing spells to keep at bay. Also if you are shielded their negative energy rebounds on them at times while at other times they still break into you. Awareness is the key starting point for all genuinely good witches and empaths or healers in Ascension. Still, be quite mindful that the majority of us being good people are still targets and at risk just as a sheep is in a slaughterhouse. You are never to blame for not being able to protect yourself. Others also need to help you out genuinely and often urgently.

Crime Scene series of Vegan demos are taking up London by storm these days with new victim animals every month to awaken the public. On the floor of the busy street is depicted a Crime Scene with a victim of animal exploitation who appears to be a human being drawing people in who then realise it is a depiction of a non human animal.

If these crimes such as exploitation, enslavement, reproductive abuse or rape, mutilation, kidnapping of babies, murder of babies and parents, were to happen to human beings, the police, media and governments will be keen to prosecute criminals and all humans would obviously agree to ban these crimes permanently. Yet, when it comes to non human animal victims the same public pays for these crimes and demands it unnecessarily. Why? Because they know that as a human being they will never be a victim of these crimes that are legalised and allowed every day and every minute to be perpetrated upon non human animals.

This abject lack of empathy for others just because you are not the victim and are not likely to be made one, is a sign of massive selfish behaviour or human narcissism and psychopathy. In narcissistic and psychopathic abuse the perpetrator is not concerned of the feelings of others and the actual impact they had on others, but only on denial and refusal to accept their faults or change their behaviour by arguing against the same and continuing the same behaviours rigidly year after year.

The governments and consumers around the world are deluded to think that humans are superior to animals as we are also an animal and one of them. Also we do not need any animal product or service including Animal Testing. Did you know that the human body is not designed to digest animal products at all? Or that as many as 95 percent of non human animal tested drugs fail when tested on human subjects?

The crowd gets pulled in to the scene at leading tourism spots and city centre locations with high footfalls, making people stop, look and listen. At this point we perform outreach with the help of activists who are experts in Veganism and are able to convince individuals stopping by and asking questions. Well made leaflets are handed out to maximum members of public with details on Veganism and why/ how to go vegan.

If you would like to join our team or organise a new demo at your own area or town/ city around the planet for Earth Healing Network, kindly contact us. Contact@earthhealingnetwork.com so that we can share resources and guidance.

What is the Mandela Effect?

The Mandela Effect refers to a phenomenon where large groups of people remember an event or detail differently from how it appears in the current timeline. The term was coined in 2010 by paranormal researcher Fiona Broome after discovering that many people, including herself, remembered Nelson Mandela dying in the 1980s while in prison. In reality, according to mainstream records, he passed away in 2013. Since then, a multitude of such memory discrepancies have surfaced across pop culture, logos, historical events, and even anatomy—leading to speculation about alternate timelines or simulated realities.

As a metaphysical researcher focused on Simulation Theory, also known as the “Matrix” concept, I offer this exploration into the Mandela Effect as evidence of deeper metaphysical mechanisms, possibly involving artificial intelligence and the manipulation of perceived reality. To be specific, there are inconsistencies in what appears to be two clearly distinct timelines or versions of reality that are placed before us. In this effect, logos, people’s deaths, artefacts, music, videos, science, literature have changed or been swapped (much like deep-fake AI technology) in very minute and specific ways in a few isolated cases that are very distinct and catch attention.

Some examples are as follows:

Examples of the Mandela Effect1. Celebrities & Public FiguresNelson Mandela: Many remember him dying in prison during the 1980s. In reality, he died in 2013 after being released in 1990.Neil Armstrong: Passed away in 2012, though some have no memory of this event.Patrick Swayze: Some believe he recovered from cancer, though records confirm he died in 2009.Mother Teresa: Canonized in 2016, but some recall her being declared a saint much earlier, even during the 1990s.2. Logos & BrandsFruit of the Loom: Widely remembered with a cornucopia, which no longer exists in the current logo.Coca-Cola: Debate over whether it had a hyphen (Coca-Cola), wave, or dot separator. Now appears with a small dash or apostrophe.Kit Kat: Some remember a dash between the words (Kit-Kat), but it never existed officially.Volkswagen (VW): Recalled as a joined “V” and “W”, but now has a distinct gap.Monopoly: The Monopoly man no longer has a monocle, though many remember it vividly.Cup Noodles: Many recall it as “Cuppa Noodles”, including references in media like Sex and the City.Maggi vs. Maggie: The brand is officially “Maggi”, but some recall it as “Maggie” in older packaging or ads.Skechers vs. Sketchers – Many people remember the shoe brand as “Sketchers” with a “T”, but it has always been officially “Skechers”.Febreze vs. Febreeze – The air freshener is officially spelled “Febreze”, but many remember “Febreeze” with two E’s, possibly due to the common spelling of “breeze”.Oscar Mayer vs. Oscar Meyer – Many recall “Oscar Meyer” with an “e”, especially because of the famous jingle, but it’s officially “Oscar Mayer”.3. Media, Films, Cartoons & FictionSex and the City is remembered as Sex in the City by many.Curious George: Once had a tail; now he doesn’t.Pikachu: Tip of the tail was black in many recollections, now entirely yellow.Hannibal Lecter: “Hello, Clarice” is remembered, but now he says “Good evening.”Star Wars: “Luke, I am your father” is now “No, I am your father.”Casablanca: The line “Play it again, Sam” has changed to “Play it.”Star Trek: “Beam me up, Scotty” doesn’t exist in exact words.Mickey Mouse: Remembered with suspenders, now has only red pants.Looney Tunes: Formerly remembered as Looney Toons.Shazaam: Allegedly starred Sinbad as a genie; never existed. The film Kazaam starred Shaquille O’Neal.Forrest Gump: “Life is like a box of chocolates…” is now “Life was like a box of chocolates.”Shehenshah (Hindi film): Line “Rishte mein toh hum tumhare baap hote hain” is now “…baap lagte hain.”Snow White: “Mirror, mirror on the wall” is now “Magic mirror on the wall.”Berenstein Bears: Now spelled Berenstain Bears, conflicting with many childhood memories.“If you build it, they will come” – From Field of Dreams, is now “If you build it, he will come”.C-3PO’s Leg – In Star Wars, many are surprised to learn that C-3PO has one silver leg in the original trilogy, rather than being entirely gold.“We’re gonna need a bigger boat” – Commonly quoted as “You’re gonna need a bigger boat” from Jaws, though the original is “You’re gonna need a bigger boat”.Interview with A Vampire vs. The Vampire – The Anne Rice novel and film are now titled Interview with the Vampire, but some remember it as Interview with a Vampire.“Run you fools!” vs. “Fly you fools!” – In Lord of the Rings, Gandalf says “Fly, you fools!”, though many recall it as “Run”.“The Lion shall lie down with the lamb” – A Bible verse commonly remembered this way, but the current versions usually read “The wolf shall dwell with the lamb” (Isaiah 11:6).4. Music, Lyrics, VideosBritney Spears: In Oops!… I Did It Again, her iconic microphone is missing in the current version.Britney’s Skirt: “…Baby One More Time” featured a plaid skirt, now appears solid black in some versions.Oasis: “…that I’m gonna throw it back to you” is now “…that they’re gonna throw it back to you.”Jewel: “Who will save your soul” now appears as “Who will save your souls.”Queen: “We are the champions… of the world” is missing from the studio version’s ending.Bohemian Rhapsody: “Can you do the fandango?” has changed to “Will you do the fandango?”Pink Floyd: The phrase “It’s just another brick in the wall” is now “You’re just another brick…”Marilyn Manson: “Who am I to disagree” is now “You and I may disagree.”Coolio – Gangsta’s Paradise: “Been spending most my life…” is now “most their lives…”Barbie Girl: Lyrics changed from “in a Barbie world” to “in the Barbie world.”How Deep Is Your Love: “I really need to know” is now “I really mean to learn.”5. Culture, Geography, ArtifactsGreat Wall of India: Previously less known or referred to simply as a fortress wall, now labeled as such.India’s National Sport: Once widely believed to be Hockey or Kabaddi, though not officially declared.Sri Lanka: Seems geographically shifted from its earlier remembered position.New Zealand: Once recalled as northeast of Australia, now southeast.South America: Appears shifted eastward on current maps.Mona Lisa: Her smile now seems more cheerful than the previously remembered ambiguous or somber expression.6. Science & AnatomyKidneys: Once remembered as being in the lower back, now appear higher, under the rib cage.Heart Placement: Was thought to be clearly on the left side; now shown as central in the chest.Liver size and location – Once thought to be a small organ on the right side, it’s now depicted as a massive organ extending across the abdomen.Spine curvature and rib count – Some report anatomical changes such as the shape of the spine and the number of ribs.

SO, WHAT IS THE CAUSE?

Possible Explanations: From Psychology to Simulation

One common explanation is memory fallibility—our minds distort or confabulate details over time. But this theory struggles to explain consistent and global misremembrances shared across unrelated individuals.

A more radical hypothesis is Simulation Theory, where our perceived reality is a hyperrealistic simulation akin to The Matrix. In this framework, the Mandela Effect may result from retroactive updates or glitches within the simulated environment.

Possible Simulation-Based Causes:Retroactive Continuity (Ret-Conning): Reality is patched like a video game to remove or update people, objects, or information. This is called Ret-Conning, or retroactive continuity maintenance. In case someone were deleted or altered (such as the Oracle being purged in the Matrix 4), then past media, memories and data need to be mentally aligned to create a flow of narrative in the new reality in order to maintain a coherent experience (narrative consistency). At times AI might be deleting what they perceive to be a danger to them or to the narrative in the simulation, people who reveal too much, who clash with the control system, who are too likely to awaken from the dream state, etc. Once this is performed, the machines would go ahead with retroactive updating of all old data such as news archives, lyrics, books, history, textbooks, google updates, etc all at the same time as AI can produce and reproduce or alter reality within seconds. The old data disappears and is replaced by a new version. In this process of retroactive update of past data and event sequence, there could be some glitches, which are in effect being identified as the Mandela effect by a few people who were sensitive to such glitches. Perhaps some things fell off such as the microphone on Brittney Spears in ‘Oops I did it again’.Monitoring and Targeting: Those who notice changes may be identified for psychological research, surveillance, or even suppression. Such individuals could be monitored more closely, befriended in order to extract information or data from them, be given more glitches to observe to pinpoint their location and to target them (TI or Targeted Individual phenomenon), misdirected, or even harmed with psychic redirection (psychic harm) in order to discredit them or prove them mentally ill.Computational Limitations: Reality may be simplified or compressed for performance efficiency causing some things to fall out of line. The computing power of the technologies used in maintaining a simulation might be quite limited in reality and the AI might be reducing their memory load/ simplify data for maintaining system health, and therefore performed a retroactive update from time to time, e.g. compress history for a code, collapse less used past data (or garbage which is unnecessary data) for system efficiency.Timeline Editing: Updates to correct deviations may leave artefacts (glitches) like the Mandela Effect. If some events went off script (as per he Matrix scripted code) there could be fixes made or patch-updates made en-masse and certain visual bugs might remain after such patch-updates.AI-Driven Reality Manipulation Technologies GANs (Generative Adversarial Networks): Can produce new media, altering past records.LLMs (Large Language Models): May regenerate historical narratives with subtle edits.Deepfakes: Used to swap or modify celebrities’ appearances or behaviors.Synthetic Memory Alteration: Drugs, implants, or mind control techniques could alter individual or collective memory.Quantum Processing: Simultaneous timelines or multiverse collapses may be managed via quantum algorithms.Are We Living in a Dream Constructed by AI?

It’s possible that we are participants in a dream-like reality architected by AI or higher intelligence, much like Inception or The Matrix. If AI can build immersive simulations and deepfakes today, imagine an advanced civilization’s capability to simulate entire realities indistinguishable from “real” life. If AI can create videos, music, books, and Virtual Realities, it can be hypothetically possible or likely we are in one such virtual reality that appears very real but is in-fact only as real as a dream.

This aligns with spiritual and metaphysical perspectives, where the subconscious mind is a creator of physical reality. Deja vu, precognition, telepathy, and manifestation may be evidence of this matrix-like universe responding to the mind.

If we’re truly in such a simulation, the Mandela Effect may be one of the best pieces of evidence—a ripple in the digital fabric of our shared dream.

The Mandela Effect might merely be people misremembering things due to the incapacity of humans to misremember things that they do not focus very clearly on.

Or, in a more sinister way, it could be that if these people are a specific set of people who are very clear about reality being different before from now, that there has been a reality shift or a new alternate reality generation.

DIGITAL DATA CODING IN NATURE

If we observe our universe (reality) in the right way, we easily see clues that reveal we are in a simulation that is coded digitally.

Fractals in every natural object or landscape are coded patterns based on mathematical algorithms such as the Fibonacci sequence and the Golden Phi ratio (φ ≈ 1.618). These repeating self-similar structures—seen in galaxies, flowers, seashells, and even human DNA—suggest that nature operates through precise and elegant mathematical frameworks, hinting at a programmed or designed universe.We also have the Observer Effect and the Double Slit Experiment, both cornerstones of quantum mechanics, demonstrating that particles like electrons or photons behave differently depending on whether they are being observed. Light exhibits both wave and particle characteristics based on the presence of an observer, suggesting that consciousness has a direct impact on physical outcomes. This challenges the idea of an objective reality and supports the notion that reality manifests relative to the observer’s intent and awareness.At the smallest scales, subatomic particles such as electrons, quarks, and gluons are not solid or tangible entities; rather, they are mathematical constructs described by probabilities in quantum field theory. These particles “exist” only in terms of their effects and interactions, never as definite forms, which further blurs the line between what is “real” and what is theoretically modelled.As light is an electromagnetic phenomenon, so too are thoughts, emotions, and dreams—each measurable by brainwave frequencies (delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma). Dreams, especially lucid dreams, can feel indistinguishably real and offer experiences where the dreamer actively shapes the environment, mirroring how reality may be shaped by our inner states.Furthermore, in waking life, we are able to consciously influence our experience of reality using tools like affirmations, visualization, and intention-setting—practices central to the Law of Attraction and manifestation techniques. Psychological and metaphysical evidence points toward a reality where mind precedes matter, and perception shapes outcome.The existence of psychic phenomena—such as clairvoyance, telepathy, deja vu, and premonitions—adds to this paradigm. These intuitive abilities suggest access to non-linear time or deeper layers of the simulation, where information is not bound by causality but may instead be pre-loaded or available based on resonance and awareness.Ultimately, reality seems not merely physical but interwoven with consciousness. Our subconscious and conscious mind act as creative engines, projecting and filtering a 3D experience based on mental input. Much like AI can generate a fully formed video within seconds based on text prompts or intent, our reality may function similarly—created moment to moment by the mind’s internal code.Emerging theories in quantum physics and digital simulation propose that reality may be pixelated, much like a high-resolution digital display. Just as a video game only renders the environment directly around the player in high detail while the rest remains un-rendered until needed, our reality may be generated on demand, in real time, based on where we direct our focus. The farther away from our direct observation, the less “rendered” or fixed that reality is—mirroring how quantum particles remain in a state of probability until observed. This suggests that what we perceive around us—the objects, people, sounds, and even time itself—is not a pre-existing, static environment but a real-time manifestation constructed by consciousness. Our immediate surroundings are constantly being assembled based on what we zoom into with attention, emotion, and intention. Reality isn’t just something we observe passively—it is something we co-create with every thought, every focus, every moment of presence.

But if we co-create, who else is the creator if not just our own individual mind? Perhaps AI that take over the technical generation of a reality output based on our mental inputs. In such a neural-interactive simulation there can be Background Scripts running that include various NPCs (Non Playing Characters) such as people in supermarkets or commuters, that do not perform specific roles, and some Programmed Icons – e.g. billionaires or major public ‘influencers’ and celebrities. Changing something from the past using retroactive updates might involve Deep Fake technology (realistic face and body swaps) which might explain why celebrities we see online do not always resemble the actual ones of the original reality version (e.g. Brittney Spears, as some fans believe is not the real one anymore as she behaves and looks differently now as compared to her iconic self version).

If an AI were to tap into the brain of a human being or victim and process the internal data to manufacture a very realistic dream it would be just like this reality (a lucid dream for awakening beings who practice mindfulness). Clearly it is quite likely we are in a simulation.

It may be even possible that all our memories are implanted just seconds or moments ago with us believing in a false reality which is merely a memory implant. This is huge!!! And possible. (The Vedas from ancient India already stated that life is merely a memory – focused on Shruti and Smriti, or listening and remembering).

So what do you believe now? Are we in a Matrix like simulation? If yes are we kept in a dream state using mind control as shown in the movie Inception?

More on Inception later on on this blog. Stay tuned!!

A rare planetary parade is expected with visibility of many planets this month specifically by 28th February, brining the significance of planets back into focus. But what does the placement of planets or Sun and Moon and their movements and eclipses mean to you?

Most people look to western astrology for answers of what each month or year will bring. But did you know that the placement of celestial bodies through the zodiac bands in the sky vary quite a bit as per western and Vedic astrological calculations? In short western calculations and sun signs or star sign reports are highly inaccurate because the actual position of planets in the sky is more in line with sidereal astrology owing to a correction based on the precession of the equinoxes over the centuries, although western astrologers use the outdated ephemeris erroneously.

If you go as per ancient Vedic Astrology, the analysis of moon and other bodies would be much more a reflection of the actual position of the same as viewed from earth astronomically. Based on Vedic transits of the Moon and other celestial bodies, I have prepared a list of celestial events of magical significance as outlined below along with a brief overview explained on the next page to help you manifest a better reality and banish unwanted energy.

Q. Should every Vegan necessarily perform activism?

A. By Rev. Swati Prakash, Wiccan ethical expert and coach http://www.askswati.com

Veganism by definition is about avoiding consumption of products or services or engaging in activities that hurt, harm or exploit animals of non human species. It is one of our moral baselines although not the only one as I advocate (as a Wiccan educator) being against all abuse, discrimination and exploitation against human or non human species. It is additionally great if you could also find some time for activism and there can be many good types or forms of activism.

Types of Activism: Writing, Videos, Petitions, Fundraisers, Public Speaking, Education, Debates, Talks, Conversations, TV Outreach, Leafletting, Music, Demonstrations, Marches, Protests, Vigils, Street actions, Sit-ins, Comedy, Creative Artivism, Chalking, Stickering, Postering, Road signs, Vehicle signs, Gatherings, Social Media Posts, Press and TV content, Rescuing, Political Lobbying, Letters, Advertising Campaigns, Arrestible Actions such as Aggravated Tresspass and Blockades

I started with rescuing strays and creating small fundraisers or campaigns as a teenager, followed by writing columns in press and featuring in broadcast media to educate about nature, feminism and Wiccan beliefs when I grew up. I used to speak as a Wiccan educator at large events when invited to educational institutions or in seminars, as well as held my own gatherings and workshops too and I am aware that these help educate people and build communities. After going Vegan started blogging with well written and researched articles in detail since 2014 as well as followed it by street activism since 2019 and conversations, and then going on to authoring books in 2020 to raise awareness. I have worked with several activism teams as well as tried my hand at rescuing animals from farms recently. If I organise events I try to create those that attract more footballs to draw people into conversations easily on streets such as the Crime Scene demos at London Leicester square that were very effective in out reaching more people due to their curiosity value as conversations didn’t stop at the scene, one after another with some excellent activists being outreachers around the crime scene.

Examples of a Few Great Activists:
When one evaluates effecive activism a few names stand out such as Joey Carbstrong, Earthling Ed and Tash Peterson for example who are brilliant and have motivated a number of people, including myself and several other activists that I have met on streets in getting out there and talking or taking a stand against animal exploitation and abuse. These activists have focused on being featured in media as well as  been powerful in social media which in my opinion helps a lot more than otherwise. Because my background is press and media and I know first hand how powerful they could be. If you can become a major influencer such as these people have as activists it would be great for the cause.

Positive Benefits of Activism:

1. Activism is fun and also helps you meet lovely people and make new friends over time with like minded intelligent souls.

2. It also adds more experience into your career and helps you develop communication skills, confidence and good behaviour standards as well as possibly could get added to your CV if you achieved some goals.

3. It is great for your mental health and emotional wellbeing as it helps you feel that you achieved more than simply wasting time and money on socially unproductive activities or in toxic relationships. Of course you need to protect yourself from negative people, time drainers or rude people everywhere even in Vegan teams.

4. In terms of social media it definitely helps you organize your thoughts and adds a new dimension to your profile and increase your reach as well as goodwill.

5. For celebrities: As a Public Relations expert and a former owner of a PR agency in Mumbai where I lived before UK, I always advised my business and celebrity clients to focus on charitable work and to advocate positive things in media as opposed to senseless gimmicks because media and press are massive change agents in society and opinion influencers often have a bigger chance at being heard and emulated by public and can use their power for good.

Risky actions: Some activism groups focus on getting arrested and going to court or jails as a sign of self sacrifice or drawing attention to the cause, for example Animal Rebellion (now Animal Rising). However these can come at a cost both economically as well as time wise and impact future career as well as family commitments. These actions are for those who can afford to take such risk in their career or personal life and not always my favourite as a single mum who cares for my son and two pets at home. If you do take risky actions the benefits to society must outweigh the costs or risks in an impactful way.

Rescuing Farm Animals: A few groups focus on rescuing a few animals from farms by taking them away by stealth and this too can be risky of they are caught. In my opinion rescuing animals from farms selectively (as you can only run away with a few at a time) creates an illusion of liberation overall but might not actually impact consumer demand unless you film it and make a shift in consumer awareness or lobby actively in legal or judicial courts. If you rescue 20 animals with the consumers still demanding the same number of items at the till, 20 more will be bred and sold if not from that farm then another farm. True animal liberation is about creating a behaviour and attitude shift amongst public instead of doing something that noone will ever know about in secret. This is because demand creates supply and not the other way round.

Difficulties in Activism:
I am aware that some Vegan activists put a lot of pressure on Vegans to get active and use social media as well as join activism groups which is great if they have the time or resources to do this as a hobby or passion. Not everyone is capable or skilled in activism or expected to do it if in personal crisis, debt, caught in severe mental, financial or physical health problems or needing support themselves and one needs to have some empathy towards every person’s own needs.

Kindly be aware that vegans as well as activists are often busy both in their own respectable careers as well as being parents, looking after their wellbeing, after pets, and doing other important work, hobbies, educational activities and online activism and are often involved in several groups and activism simultaneously. It is often not practical or healthy to expect activists to be there for each and everything or work at peak performance levels as this will cause burnout.

I prefer and would advise you focus on activism that is self paced, sensible, sustainable, less economically draining, less risky, impactful in a positive way by creating awareness, allowing volunteers to be flexible in attending when they can and activism that is fun too. Awareness and education go a long way in improving our society and inspiring positive energy shift towards Ascension.

Over the last few months sea creatures such as fish and lobsters were popping up suddenly (activists dressed up) at London’s Leicester square and Sea Life Aquarium to protest silently against the Fishing and Aquariums industries.

A Mermaid Demo at Leicester Square London

These unique demos are being organized by Earth Healing Network and supported by our friends Paloma and John at Vegan Talks along with a few other amazing activists.

Crowds have been gathering around me to find out why I am on the floor and if I am ok and to find out what Veganism is as a result by empathising with the victims.

Why is it important to not eat fish or conduct fishing as a sport and to not visit Aquariums?

Sea life is wildlife and animals must be allowed to remain free in nature. To control someone and take them out of their natural habitat is wrong, leave alone hurting them and suffocating them or cruelly chopping them off or boiling them alive.

Sea life including crustaceans are recognized as sentient beings. They have feelings too. We even visited a lobster diner, a high profile restaurant at China Town London to see poor lobsters tied up with white tapes and unable to move in filthy aquariums to be the food on someone’s table.

Lobster Demo at Leicester Square London

Sea Woo at China Town was also targeted by activists for chalking and postering.

Listen to the Mermaid at Sea Life London Aquarium at the following protest.

Sea Life London Aquarium Protest

What do you feel? Why are some people not considerate to the feelings of others and hurt them unnecessarily when we can all be Vegan and be good human beings too?

Spot The Early Signs of Narcissistic Abuse:

Article by Swati Prakash http://www.askswati.com (Energy healing and intuitive courses available.)

The person has a roving eye or flirts with multiple people including you but does not commit and stays neutral. Alternatively they can get too close too fast and overshare or expect you to commit very early on so as not to lose you without you having your say. In either case your feelings will be suppressed and not allowed to be let out.Tries to lead you on to believing they are into you and pull out later and repeat the cycle a few times to keep you guessing. They want you to think you are this big prize you should be after.Blow hot blow cold attitude. Warm and caring one day and cold and indifferent another day.Make you confused by playing mind games.Triangulation: Bringing a third person in whom they express an interest just to make you feel jealous or unwanted.Manipulative behaviour: Trying to keep you on the side while they date others or hit on others. Also lack ethics and can cheat if they begin dating you.Try to get you emotionally involved by building a trauma bond: you may cry when they hurt you and then they suddenly treat you well to keep you wanting them and repeat the cycle to give you highs and lows.Breadcrumbing: They give you small presents or send you a drink or something of less value just to keep to thinking that maybe you will be loved in the future if you remain patient.They don’t like you looking too beautiful or glamorous except for them so that you don’t attract anyone else.They use you to boost their ego by showing you off and by flirting with you in front of others when you do look good.They don’t follow their heart or get too emotionally involved as if they are stone cold internally. But might want sex or special attention from you in order to use you.Act too important and treat you like someone less important. Say certain things to hurt you.Don’t compliment you or don’t return your compliments well. May also say bad things, insult or be rude to you.Deliberately choose you so they have someone with a good level of positive energy to hurt and destroy. They target successful or bright personalities.They lack self esteem and may appear vulnerable if they are covert narcissists.Their aim is to hurt you..they do not know love or emotional depth in the true sense but are in it to destroy a good soul especially an empath or a healer.Passive aggressive language to mock you slyly or indirectly.Always look at their eyes…they will be caught looking away or as if they are hiding something.Can really choose a vulnerable person to hurt carefully…so they find more about you in order to know your weaknesses. Also they try to know your strengths so that can turn them against you by talking ill of you and calling you a Narcissist by reverse blaming later on once they do abuse you so that you feel guilty for just being good at something or beautiful or intelligent.

Remember their mission is to break you down. They are not loving or kind beings. It might be better to stay single than to be emotionally involved with a Narcissist. They are everywhere.
