For those of you who follow the Oracle Report, Laura Walker has had a number of health issues that have kept her away from her work. Last week, she was rousted from her resting and drawn to record some messages for the Parliament of Wise Owls. If you are not part of it, don’t worry, you are certainly welcome to join in.
“The Appointed Audience: Part 1- Bucking the Stars”
“The Appointed Audience: Part 2 – Embracing Emergence/8 Tips from The Mahavidyas/Aquarius New Moon/Saturn-Neptune Conjunction”
You can listen to them on her website www.oraclereport.com.
As you know, I am a writer. I prefer this medium to recording as I can delve deeper into a subject and pose questions I would never remember in speaking. The recordings above will take about 2 hours and are packed full of valuable information and advice. So much that I want to bring a piece of it to light and challenge a deeper look at it.
As I reported in early January, Gregorian 2026 is being called The Year of the Prepper. We must be ready for change to happen in a big way. Will it be Geopolitical Turmoil (WWIII)? Local Disaster (earthquake/volcano)? Catastrophic event (AMOC collapse, comet hitting the Earth, Magnetic pole flip, Micronova)?
Laura talked about her past, and involvement with Preppers like this. They have been around for a long time. Remember in the mid 2000’s Al Gore won an Oscar for predicting the end of the world due to Global Warming (yes he called it that). Didn’t happen. His “science” was wrong.
But as far as a near future catastrophic change, Laura is suggesting that we, the collectively awake, need to be prepared for what is to come. Not just for the physical aspects (food, shelter, clothing). But also for the energetic and emotional aspects that will come along with it. Should the Shit Hit the Fan, how ready will you be. Will you keep a level head? Or will you be one of the movie extras that get consumed by the disaster due to freezing in the face of trauma? And what help will you be able to give towards survival?
Within her Appointed Audience recordings, she also presented the energy of the New Moon in Aquarius. I outlined the aspects and Sabian Symbols in my report yesterday. And the advice follows 8 steps – not unlike the fact that there are 8 phases during a lunar cycle. It might help to think of these 8 tips in light of the lunar cycle. The energies of the lunar phases are listed with their meanings here.
So, in preparation for facing the unknown and potentially life changing future, these 8 tips are offered for us to ponder, consider and integrate into your life. They come to us through the Mahavidyas – the wisdom goddesses or aspects of Sophia. Wise Owls are well versed in this. If you are not, then suffice it to say that there is more here on Earth and the heavens than can be explained in this post. This is their message:
8 Tips for the End of the World from the Mahavidyas
- Something bigger than you is happening
- It goes beyond the persona for your chart
- It is happening – It’s an amplification of frequency
- Therefore, you play a bigger role than you realize so it is imperative to Trust/Twist to the higher octave
- Feel the feelings. Do not avoid the feelings. Detatch from the lower octaves and move back up (fears are the weapons of the archons)
- Represent yourself well. Kick your addictions in the next 2 cycles
- Contain your frequency. We are not sent on missions we are not qualified for.
- Fade into your angelic self. Something bigger is happening. You are much bigger than you might think
Advice on How to Absorb This
For myself, this hit pretty hard. Whatever is happening or going to happen will transform us. We must be ready for that change or else be left behind. Will it be overnight? Will it take time? Unknown. But having the right mindset will help you when it does.
I recommend reviewing these tips often over the next few hours or days or weeks. You need to understand and inhabit them. Truly grok them. More than just a cursory read. I spending nights before going to sleep with a meditation session on each. And ask questions.
In my own journey through understanding Astrology, I have often had to go back and study topics I thought I had mastered. While I was reading, I needed a refresher on higher and lower octaves. Google AI offered me this:
Metaphysical and Astrological Interpretation
- Lower Octave (Physical/Manifestation): Represents personal, tangible, or “lower” vibration energies (e.g., Mercury, Venus, Mars).
- Higher Octave (Spiritual/Transpersonal): Represents higher-frequency, spiritualized, or “octave” counterparts of the personal planets (e.g., Uranus as the higher octave of Mercury, Neptune of Venus, and Pluto of Mars).
- Concept: The “higher” vibration is not “better” but rather a more refined, comprehensive, or intense expression of the same energetic theme.
All added insight into the mission.
So, please go back and read them again. Copy and paste them somewhere you can find them again. Print them. Write them out by hand. Whatever your process. Do it again.
Whether you are a novice or a spiritual warrior, the tips will help you in our journey to the next level.
