Abundant Life Seed Foundation

Rare old varieties of plants, from before agribusiness genetically mangled them. Aldo Leopold said that to revive the Earth's natural splendor "first you must save the pieces" Abundant Life is doing that.

Abundant Life promotes genetic diversity by providing varieties of open-pollinated seed, with emphasis on varieties favored by home gardeners and small organic farmers. Live plants, worms and beneficial insects are also available.

Abundant Life started as a heirloom seed bank in NW Washington State, now is based in Oregon.

Alchemy

There are three ancient sciences of which we are aware: Astrology, Natural Healing, and Alchemy. The division is modern, the principles are the same for each. (Al) Khmet is the ancient name for Egypt and this study may have been found in the mystery schools there, and in unknown civilizations before that.

Little is publicly known of true alchemy, in which the human spirit is transmuted to the "gold" of its' full potential. There are practitioners of the art today, no doubt, but they say little. Many of those in the past who we consider the greats of Science, were in truth Alchemists.

Alexandria, Egypt The Destruction of the Great Library at Alexandria.

Periodically Mankind destroys his heritage. This seemingly foolish behavior is justified for various reasons, usually politics or religion. Such convulsions occur regularly, mimicking the natural extinctions of species that sweep the earth, allowing space for the new while obstructing the vision of those who would know humanities' past. For many centuries the library at Alexandria, Egypt was the center of learning for the Mediterranean world. There were several destructions of the library, each likely removing from our view significant parts of the past.

The number of important manuscripts referenced in the ancient books we now have is far larger than the number of such books that we do have. Historians are attempting to recover these lost books in many ways and each year additional titles are added. There is a long way to go.

A related topic: Ancient Manuscripts from the Desert Libraries of Timbuktu, Mali, Africa.

Many families of this region have private libraries containing vast chunks of the unknown history of Africa. Native people's history is often not shared with anthropologists and other outsiders, and so those who seek the truth of the greater, more ancient, history of the human race have only fragments of the story, and all most nothing from Africa.

Mali is also home to the Dogon people whose ancient knowledge of the hidden companion stars of Sirius was a major shock to scientists. Dogon article: from Sphinx Group

The Aquatic Ape Theory

Of all the monkeys only the human is not covered with hair (most of us, anyway). This, a gap in the fossil record, and other factors - such as our supposed intelligence, have led a few researchers to suspect that our ancestors 5 or 10 million years ago lived most of their lives in the water. A lot can be drawn from this idea, including a good chunk of human psychology.

Short introduction with references.

Area 51

Air Force Area 51, nicknamed "Dreamland", is located at Groom Lake in the Las Vegas, Nevada region. It is reputed to be a center of super secret "black" projects and UFO back - engineering. It is doubtful, though, that the really super - secret research would be in such a well known place. Art Bell lives nearby and named his "Dreamland" radio show covering paranormal phenomena after it.

A guy named Glenn Campbell (not the singer, but watch out for his jokes) was one of the first to draw attention to Area 51. His Website: www.aliensonearth.com/

Astrology

Astrology was once a Sacred Science, along with Alchemy and Natural Healing. The three were considered parts of the same subject, the same laws applied to each. The study of the stars was of utmost importance to ancient cultures all over the world. That alone should give pause, for our ancestors were as smart as we are, and knew a lot that we don't.

Astrology is the study of the pattern of waves from different objects in the Solar System, supporting and interfering with each other. (most astrologers do not see it in those terms)

Atlantis

The Ancient Greek philosopher Plato wrote of a highly evolved culture on a large island in the Atlantic, that was destroyed about 12,000 years ago. (which just happens to match the end of the Ice age)

Strange animal migrations that may point to Atlantis.

Rand Flem-Ath has a theory that Atlantis was in Antarctica. Has some strong points. . . (such an interesting thought that this giant ancient civilization is buried under the ice. Sadly it would be mostly under water, but still - what a find that would be!)

New explorations in south west Spain seem to have found a large ancient city built in a pattern of concentric circles, similar to Plato's account of Atlantis. Troy, too, was thought a myth --- until someone found it.
