All that and more in this month’s newsletter.
Plenty of Warmth for the Winter Ahead!
In this edition:
Have we got it all wrong? From an intuitive perspective, we look at the weird difference in our approach to *alcohol* and *tobacco* on one hand, and all forms of *recreational drugs* on the other. The former cause much more death and destruction in our society, but it is the drugs we spend much fruitless time trying to stop. How bizarre can you get? Read the article.
Dreams. Where do they come from? It’s stranger that you might think. Maybe they come from nowhere: they just are! And we explore something which quantum mechanics would be familiar with: the other realities we inhabit, whence come our dreams.
Back on Planet Earth, the Intuitive Investor Model Portfolio is doing remarkably well these days. Could it be that intuitive investment actually pays off? Look at our results.

British entrepreneur Mike Lynch dies in a freak yachting accident. He and his former finance VP Stephen Chamberlain had recently been acquitted from fraud charges in California.

Ukraine surprises with a major assault on Russian territory. The I Ching casts a warning eye on this unexpected turn of events.
What are dreams? We take a quick look at dreams, which are mostly ignored but which can and do predict accurately future events – and we have several good examples including the terrible forecast given to legendary boxer Sugar Ray Robinson by one of his dreams.
The way forward to a greater understanding of ultimate reality is an individualistic path. We have a plea for tolerance and understanding of the route taken by others in their beliefs.
Monthly Review shines a spotlight on the rise and rise of gold, comments on an interesting proposal by Tehran to end its struggle with the West, pauses by the demise of the much-awaited low-end version of the Tesla Cybertruck, and – not least – the touching video of a young American who was befriended by a butterfly, which never left his side for five whole days.
Have a lovely September!
In this edition:
It’s the greatest trick. Almost no one spots how governments around the world manage to plug their budget deficits with the help of their central banks. Ultimately it comes down to money being created out of thin air. We explain in simple terms how this happens – and why in the end it is bad for everyone.
The Master and the Little Kids. What Jesus really meant when he said, “Suffer little children to come unto me”. For kids have something most of us have lost: a link with other realities.

The I Ching speaks. Want to know what the economy will do next year? The oracle forecasts.

What we didn’t learn at school but which are vital life lessons we need. How come?
Price inflation is falling in Europe. We have the real reason why the central banks want to keep it at 2% a year. Why not 0%? That has to do with overspending!
This month’s I Ching reading answers the question: will the military aid by the USA save Ukraine from its invader.

Scott Milligan is a physical medium who can make toys fly and musical instruments sound, as we report.

In this edition:
Part of intuitive knowing is to see the real story behind the noise.
Take Taiwan, for instance. The Chinese leaders don’t really want the island because they feel it’s theirs. Another, strategic reason is actually the key to Chinese sabre rattling. Find out what it is in the new edition of The Intuitive Investor.
The same applies to the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It is not about a feeling by the Kremlin that Ukraine has always been part of Mother Russia. Again, it is a much more down to earth strategic reason which predominates Russian thinking.
Intuitive awareness also notes the extraordinary similarity between the Child Welfare Benefit Scandal in The Netherlands and the British Post Office Scandal in the UK. Neither country is conscious of the way government agencies mistreated innocent people.
We’ve a new dream, too, foretelling another rise in inflation.
And there’s a tale from the would-be victim of how listening to her intuition saved her from a very nasty end.
