The Earth’s Toroidal Field, The Language of the Birds, and the Fortean Present

Paradigmatic shifts in human consciousness probably occur in tandem with portentous shifts in electromagnetic energy. As the poles shift, as the north migrates south and the south north, human consciousness may undergo a radical change, a shapeshifting. Like a full moon influencing tidal waves or Dionysian lunacy, the pole shift could influence the way we perceive ourselves, one another, the plenum of our environment, and existence itself. I also think this polar shift, this Gaian electro-pirouette, will have a far greater impact on our consciousness than, say, full moon madness.

The idea of a polar shift naturally lines up with the shapeshifting of the collective psyche. Everything is interconnected, locally and nonlocally, via the reality of the Field, the quantum garden of consciousness. Anything that happens to the electromagnetic grid that circumnavigates and suffuses the planet will also happen to us as a species. A polar migration, essentially a great change in the planetary body, would, theoretically and literally, directly influence our psychic compasses. I feel this polar shift would foment a revolution and evolution in psychic activity. The noosphere, the mental envelope that surrounds the planet, may fully awaken. Telepathy will become more common. Our perception of time will change.

Joseph Chilton Pearce, in his last couple of books, talked explicitly about field theory. Eloquently and incisively, he says we’re essentially embedded in a world where fields influence other fields, ad infinitum. He describes some of these fields as being “toroidal”. A toroid is a doughnut-shaped object, a geometrical marvel. According to Pearce, these toroidal shapes actually surround the human body and the planetary body. They are engendered by electromagnetic fluctuations, neuronal activity, and even quantum activity.

While attending to pranayama one evening (or “breath of fire”), Joseph Chilton Pearce caught sight of this toroidal field of energy surrounding his body. In his own words:

“After an indeterminate period (seeming hours) of this intense, rapid breathing everything simply stopped—mind and breath suspended—leaving me in a state of utter simplicity, stillness, and clarity. It was then that I experienced, all too briefly, that electromagnetic torus field of the heart engulfing me, much as Muktananda described—as a cocoon of love and universal potential that I then spontaneously termed plasma.”

This plasma envelops us all the time, but the senses haven’t evolved to the point where they can detect it. This plasma is probably an extra-spatial medium that transmits information and sentience. If it is analogous to electromagnetic energy, and if it’s something that can be influenced by a polar shift on this planet, then this plasma would inform our hearts directly about psychic metamorphosis when the time is ripe and right. In a way, the plasma would act as a soothsayer.

If the birds in Arkansas and Mississippi died as a result of the pole shift that is happening right now, then maybe we should pay attention to the signs and omens Nature, in all her sagacity, is giving us. We should learn the language of the birds.

The language of the birds is an oracular art. The hieroglyphic language of Egyptian arabs is known as the “alphabet of the birds”. The Kabbalists called it the “langue verte,” or green language. In medieval France, the troubadours were the ones who understood the birds. Odin, the Norse god, conversed with well-informed ravens. The language is one part flight of fancy, one part prophetic science, and one part clever empiricism. If we want to live another couple centuries or two, it may just be the type of language that can save us.

We live in very Fortean times. Poles are shifting, flocks of birds are perishing, planes are grounded as a result of electromagnetic disturbances, more birds are dying, and I think holes are forming in the fabric of consensual reality. As the polar shift intensifies, the Fortean element will multiply itself and science will keep on getting weirder and weirder.
