One of the most profilic American mystics of the 20th century, Joel S. Goldsmith, demonstrated extraordinary healing abilities. But he also had power over the weather. Once while on a flight in Europe, the weather was so bad that he had to influence it by clearing the fog for safe landing. 
Some Huna practitioners as well as others who work with nature spirits claim that they, too, can control hurricanes such as Gustav and Katrina. With their intention, they are able to divert the hurricane’s path so damage can be as minimal as possible. They can also reduce the overall strength and duration of the storm.
In the Christian scriptures, we read that Jesus of Nazareth calmed a storm. One day he felt asleep in a little boat on the sea with the disciples. A heavy storm came. The big-eyed frightened and red faced disciples asked him to stop the storm. Jesus calmed the storm.
In Africa, powerful medicine men and women wield power over the weather as well. While I was growing up, I was told that those who have the ability had a price to pay. For example, when you stop a powerful storm or if you make the rain fall you lose some number of days or years you can live. That way you restore the balance that you disrupted by affecting the natural order of things.

Of course, it makes sense to use all we know to have power over nature. But what do you think about the unintended consequences people have when they influence nature? Would you stop a hurricane if you knew how? When would you will you not?

I don’t know about hurricanes but I know that the Mariners win when I am at their games. I think that is why they sucked so bad last season.
I was just thinking as I read this that all sorts of people are convinced that they affect all sorts of things. Like if a guy wears his lucky underwear, the Raiders will win. So my question is what proof do we have that anyone can change the path of a storm besides God? Just curious.

Proof? The Mariners won when you attended… isn’t that proof of the same principal. Nyasha is manifesting “no Boeing strike”, and I’m wishing her luck (and I’m not taking sides) ’cause the MOB mentality is against her. They will use their power, and it will be what the energy decides, right? She’s pretty powerful… but is she THAT powerful. We’ll see. I’m really excited to watch it play out… ’cause she may hand them an early resolution or something. Ny has help of course, others on her side.
I think we’re affecting a ton of things that we don’t think twice about. We’re constantly trading our intentions and our energy through thought. Would we do what we do if we truly understood the balance? Probably not. Would I stop the hurricane to save lives? Probably. But what IS the price?

I don’t doubt that we are affecting things. I might even believe that native americans can bring rain with their dances. My question is how can one person claim to change a storm and then prove it? Perhaps it changed, but maybe it had nothing to do with this person who claims such magnificent feats. Let me try it this way………. I own this bridge in brooklyn that is for sale. Would you like to buy it? At least with this, you can ask for proof of a piece of paper saying they own it………………

I agree that it is extremely difficult to prove that an individual can influence a hurricane. That’s why people rarely talk about it.
In the Bible story I mentioned in the blog, the frightened disciples soaked in waves of the storm knew that it was Jesus who stopped the boat from wrecking. The sea was boisterous one minute and the next minute, it calmed down.
What I will suggest is find out more about how this is done. Maybe you could do it yourself. And the best way to prove it involves consciously direct a weather event (wind, rain, or snow, etc) from affecting a specific area, like your street, for example. When you understand the process, after applying it, you will see it for yourself. Then you wont need anybody’s proof.

I am okay with the storms coming as needed. I would like to change people’s minds to more agree with mine though.
