The Trojan Horse
Excerpt from the 2014 Annual Feng Shui Report.
2014 is the Year of the Green Wood Horse. The most infamous wooden horse in Greek mythology is the Trojan Horse of Homer’s fabled Iliad & the Odyssey. During the battle for Troy, a huge wooden horse was built by the Greeks and left as a sign of defeat. A select group of elite soldiers hid themselves inside the Trojan Horse and the Greek army left the island by sailing away on their ships out to sea. In celebration of what they thought was the end of the war, the people of Troy pulled their trophy, a truly tricked out pony, into the heart of their city. Later that night, the soldiers, hidden within the massive wooden structure, sneaked out and opened the gates of the city so that the army that had sailed back to the island under cover of darkness could enter and take the city with little resistance. The Greeks destroyed the city of Troy and proclaimed their victory.
The term ‘Trojan Horse’ has been associated with modern day computer viruses or malware programs designed to sneak in undetected and steal or destroy data.

A Trojan Horse is a something (or someone) that secretly seeks to undermine or bring about the downfall of an enemy, intent upon taking control or power in an attempt to defeat and destroy. The metaphor, “Trojan Horse” has come to mean any carefully constructed hoax or strategy that would entice an adversary to invite the enemy into a seemingly safe place where their defenses are down.
The safest place of course for most of us is our own home, the one we live in and the one our soul lives in. Both our residential house and the temple in which our soul is housed, the human body has been hacked.
Brilliant marketing campaigns, subliminal messaging, mind control programming, and pop culture pressure to “Keep up with the K” family have paved the way for people to blindly accept executive orders and laws that are passed without their knowledge and which subject people to constant and rampant illegal and unconstitutional spying, steal their freedoms and mass distribute propaganda in the form of “official stories” and breaking news. Smart meters, smart phones, other smart computer devices and household appliances with wireless connections and surveillance equipment have slipped into our daily lives, our homes, our cars, and our minds all under the guise of advanced technology and in the name of progress.
Our minds, specifically our sub-conscious mind and our souls are the target of this hidden agenda of mass mind control and enslavement. If that sounds highly unlikely or outrageous, consider this: our minds are highly susceptible to suggestion and that fabricated memories, even casually mentioned in very subtle ways can cause us to “remember” events that did not actually happen, much like a child remembering an experience after being shown a picture of it in a family photo album.
We were from infancy carefully taught the origin of man and the history of the world that many are realizing are complete works of fiction. In church, we are introduced to the fantastical story of creation and in school, we are taught the puzzling theory of evolution, neither of which can be proven, hence the scientific term, theory. Those who question the validity of either explanation for the human presence on earth; the leap of faith to “in the beginning” or the Big Bang and “missing links” may begin to seek the Truth elsewhere. By doing their own research and studying what society calls “conspiracy” theories (anything not reported in the mainstream media, published by scientific communities or taught in government schools), they are forced into another box, a fringe group of lie detectors and freedom fighters.
These Truth seekers are following an internal guidance system that leads them along a path of proverbial breadcrumbs. As they find a piece of the puzzle and fit it into a piece that another puzzler has found, the big picture takes shape and comes together. This year more and more pieces of the puzzle will be found and placed in their appropriate positions revealing more about the true origin of human kindness and our purpose; the Truth about the Earth, its other inhabitants and their intentions; and the Truth about what is taking place in this dimension and in other dimensions that many are consciously or unconsciously aware of but that are not visible in the third dimension. Dedicated truthers and conscientious whistleblowers who are exposing corruption and agendas in politics and governments and every three and four letter agency known to man; among the global elite and world powers; within the military industrial complex, its subsidiaries and secret umbrella projects; in the legal, educational and banking systems; in the media, music and entertainment industries; in the food, medical and pharmaceutical monopolies and in genetic, environmental and climate engineering will continue their brave, life threatening, career crushing and sometimes anonymous and thankless work.
However, unfortunately even alternative media sources, beloved personal development gurus and spiritual leaders are not immune to infiltration, coercion, and possession or simply an attack of their ego and provide misinformation and disinformation along with their patriotic investigative journalism, intel from the Truth movement researchers and contactees, and messages of love and light channeled through Earth bound guides about the “resistance”, the “awakening” and “enlightenment”. Hidden within their messages of peace and freedom, love and compassion are lies that can be missed if you make these freedom fighting heroes, truthers and modern day saints your contemporary golden calf.
Know that everything being proclaimed from the pulpit, channeled from the mouths of New Age gods, transmitted from talk show and music radio stations, broadcast from the talking and bobble-headed television personalities and the network of a World Wide Web of lies, otherwise known as the Internet are part of a great deception. Even when these shows or websites seem to contradict each other, debunk myths, reveal secrets or uncover covert operations, know that it is a distraction and part of a plan to keep us from knowing the Truth. It’s an attempt to make you think you know the truth so that these sources of information, intel and inspiration will continue to be the watering hole you return to day after day, Sunday after Sunday, Bible study after Bible study, nightly news after nightly news, talk show after talk show, video after video, website after website, workshop after workshop, conference after conference, book after book, article after article, and of course email after email in your email inbox and post after status update in your facebook feed. It’s all being expertly manipulated, controlled and intentionally allowed to flow into and flood every aspect of your existence so that every waking moment of your life is saturated with it. Bold faced lies along with tidbits of truth are sent into the main stream and alternative media outlets to keep the sheeple asleep and the truth seekers always seeking and seldom finding.
Silence. Let the one behind your eyes talk.
~ Rumi
The Truth just is…and it speaks for itself. It doesn’t need a mouthpiece or a platform, a focus group or a marketing campaign. Nor does it need a fan base or a grassroots organization. There are no Truth missionaries looking for a fresh batch of converts. No evangelists preaching the gospel of Truth. No pastors pontificating “Sermons on the Mount” of Truth.
The people who know the Truth are still and silent, quietly going about their lives and consciously holding sacred space for those with eyes to see and ears to hear. They are “being merciful to those who doubt; saving others by snatching them from the fire…” (Jude 1:22-23) They are not in the spotlight or the public arena. They don’t have any desire to shout what they know from the rooftops and get everyone else to agree with them or discover what they know so they can be chosen to lead and enroll new members into another due paying club.
Knowing is enough. When they get to that place of knowing, they realize they always knew the Truth, they understand that everyone has access to the Truth and that when and how others become “in the know” is a personal journey. They trust that everyone who wants to know the Truth, will know, in perfect time.
Much of what you think about yourself and the world you live in, is a belief. Beliefs are what keep us sane in an insane world but as Ambrose Bierce said, “Heaven lies about us in our infancy and the world begins lying about us pretty soon afterward.” A belief is something you have convinced yourself of or been convinced of by your parents and teachers, peers and idols, magazines and media, the church and the state. Within the word “belief” are two other words: 'be' and 'lie'. In essence, a belief is: the state of being a lie.
I love the question Oprah poses to her guests, "What do you know for sure?" Within the word “know” is the word ‘now’. Knowing is a present moment awareness of the Truth. And the Truth is: you know everything there is to know. Outside sources of information may direct your attention to a nugget of Truth here and there. Who you really are, your Higher Self, has access to all knowledge and wisdom right now. This eternal part of you, that has always been and always will be, cannot be deceived or tricked into believing a lie.
If we're lucky, we begin to become disillusioned with all the promises of the world. Disillusionment with life is the beginning of great intelligence. That disillusionment, in of itself, is supremely intelligent. Disillusionment...the ending of illusions. The biggest illusion of all is that your happiness, your true happiness, your true contentment is dependent upon all this stuff - the money, the fame, the glory, even the enlightenment that you were promised. It’s not really the next thing that we long for. What we long for is the embrace of where we are. We long to be in profound contact with where we are, to taste life again.
~ Jeff Foster
If our current reality is an illusion, a web of deception and lies, a tightly woven tapestry spread out on the floor of heaven, an amusement park encased in a spherical net, an invisible matrix of numbers in sequences, a cleverly designed computer program, an artificial intelligence, a virtual reality video game, a larger-than-life sized movie projected on to the black screen of a holographic Universe, indeed an imprisoned planet, then how do we catch a glimpse of the Truth so we can plan our escape and break free? As your consciousness expands so does your awareness of lies and your ability to discern the Truth. To raise your personal energy frequency and expand your consciousness, begin by suspending your beliefs. You don’t have to become an unbeliever overnight or reject everything you believe today. Nor do you have to throw out the Bible with your religion, or the Holy Trinity out with the Bible. Just regain some of your childlike innocence, when life was beautiful and you were filled with wonder. Return to a state of being pure in spirit, (pre-programming) when your days were filled with smiles and laughter, you remembered who you really are and hadn’t yet forgotten the face of God.
In Matthew 18:3, Jesus said, “Truly I say unto you, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.” You have only to look at the stories we tell our children: the fairy tales, the native folklore and Biblical parables to see through the eyes of a child and grasp the unfathomable in the simplest way possible…bedtime stories.
There is such a place as fairyland - but only children can find the way to it. And they do not know that it is fairyland until they have grown so old that they forget the way. One bitter day, when they seek it and cannot find it, they realize what they have lost; and that is the tragedy of life. On that day the gates of Eden are shut behind them and the age of gold is over. Henceforth they must dwell in the common light of common day. Only a few, who remain children at heart, can ever find that fair, lost path again; and blessed are they above mortals. They, and only they, can bring us tidings from that dear country where we once sojourned and from which we must evermore be exiles. The world calls them its singers and poets and artists and story-tellers; but they are just people who have never forgotten the way to fairyland.
~ L.M. Montgomery, The Story Girl
Sleeping Beauty is waking up from a long slumber of shadows and illusions, a clever and convincing reality, a life that is but a dream. A curse from birth and a coming of age, a forbidden spinning wheel and sharp spindle, a finger prick that drew blood and sent an entire kingdom into a deep sleep. Gifts of beauty, wit, grace, dance, song and music are bestowed on human kindness by angels from the heavenly realm sent to keep watch on the earthly plane much like the benevolent guardianship of a fairy godmother. The seventh and final gift is granted a bed instead of a coffin and the promise of an awakening, a return of True consciousness instead of death and eternal damnation. The love of a King’s son finds a way through a forest of thorns and a fortress of impenetrable bramble and briar and slays the fiery dragon at the castle gate. His Beloved, betrothed from infancy, is saved by her knight in shining armor. True love's first kiss is the Truth that will set her free.
Our birth is but a sleep and a forgetting.
Not in entire forgetfulness, and not in utter nakedness,
but in trailing clouds of glory do we come.
~ William Wordsworth

Pearls of Wisdom is a personal blog of the wisdom writings of Dara Eden that fall outside the realms of feng shui, The 8 Elements and her other personal energy work. Established in 2014, the blog is an expression of her highest values: Sovereignty, Truth, Wisdom & Inner Peace. It’s devoted to increasing awareness, expanding consciousness, bringing knowledge, sharing innerstandings and offering wisdom to the sovereign souls inhabiting the Earth.
Dara Eden is a writer and wisdom keepHER. The name, Dara, means “pearl of wisdom”. Pearls are formed when a microscopic irritant, like a grain of sand, embeds itself within the soft tissue of a shelled mollusk. To protect itself, the oyster or clam covers the invading gritty particle with concentric layers of iridescent crystalline calcium to form treasures, pearls of great beauty and worth. Gifts of the sea, pearls are the oldest known gem and the only gem that does not need to be cut, shaped or polished. Pearls are associated with elegance and luxury and are a symbol of mystery and purity. Pearls represent priceless knowledge, the rare wisdom that begins as a tiny, random, common irritant.
