The idea for this thread came from something Lavendel said: “I am not only senstive psychic, spiritual but also to emf, sounds, heat, frequencies etc. I only wear silk or cashmere clothes because my skin is senstive to hard fabrics. I feel unwell.” Modern life has many good aspects; it also has many dangers. Many physical dangers are admitted and well known, poor air quality in cities and asbestos for example, while others such as danger from WiFi are often denied. Some of the damage may be caused deliberately, some may be incidental. For example, people who design modern offices do not intend to make the workers to be less efficient, but people who promote ‘Hollywood values’ are deliberately trying to destroy traditional values. Some people may be much more vulnerable than others. For example, some people seek out and enjoy metal music concerts while others cannot tolerate them. It would be good to concentrate on aspects most relevant to this forum and those which are a particular danger to intuitive and sensitive people, people who are trying to see behind all the façades and solve some mysteries. Are ‘they’ trying to create an environment that will destroy people like us? What can we do to defend ourselves against continual assaults?

Modern offices
I had a short assignment in a very modern office block some years ago. I felt very ill as soon as I started, but knew that I would just have to endure it.
The windows were sealed as they had air-conditioning. The combination of such things as the lack of natural light and fresh air, much electrical equipment, desks and carpets made from man-made materials and the strong cleaning fluids they used had a very bad effect indeed. I have had similar experiences in other offices, including one with a large number of WiFi routers. Perhaps positive ions are involved.
This is known as the ‘sick building syndrome’, and it affects some people far more than others.
I see more and more modern office blocks with sealed windows springing up all over London. This makes me feel very uneasy and sorry for the poor prisoners who have to work there. My ability to cope with such environments, which has always been very low, steadily diminished over the years. Luckily I have escaped from all that. I can now work online.
I am mentioning it because at the time all my resources went on enduring and surviving the damaging working environments. I had no spare capacity or inclination for investigations and was kept far below the level at which intuition operates, insights occur and connections are made.

Disclaimer: I am afraid this post might not go exactly in the direction you, unseenI, wanted this thread to go but I feel like it fits in here anyway:
Are smartphones spying on people? There also is a video behind the link where Edward Snowden mentions in 2015 that governments can locate you through your phone, turn your phone on if they choose to and also listen to you talking.
The other day I was in a shop a looking at a sim card and on its package there was written something like: 'For an exiting future' or 'Looking forward to the future' or something similar. I found it eary bacause not many people these days have an optimistic view on the future and this is something which is i, I think, true for left and and right wing people alike. And why should smartphones or mobilephone providers make the future much better? I think they at best make life a little bit more entertaining and fun.
I have also come across articles on the web who were about "artificial intelligence" aka "AI" and I found it eary how much the authors liked "AI". Like this was the new best thing. And I read that someone else said that Merkel "does not understand AI." My gut feeling tells me two things (regarding "AI"): 1. There is more to it than we can mentally grasp at this moment and 2. it is not good.

I agree that some people create situations what cause harm or at least cause discomfort unintentionally and some do it intentionally. I have been wondering if there are people who aren't able to do the right thing anymore no matter what they are trying; almost as if there is a curse on them. And I have also been wondering if there are people who constantly claim that they want to 'do good' and it is only a lie and they are in fact satanists who want to do harm to humanity. These are just some thoughts that crossed my mind. (What is doing the right thing anyway?)

Smartphones truthseeker surveillance for the purposes of targetted advertising is certainly one of the hazards of modern life. I think of it as a psychological and possibly emotional danger. It can be annoying and intrusive; it can make us paranoid. I have never owned a Smartphone myself and am not on any social media, so can’t speak with authority about them. I have Ad-Blocker too. I completely ignore any advertisements I come across. I can well believe that phones can be used to locate people and spy on their browsing habits. It is all about consumerism. Data protection rules may soon force the companies to obtain your consent before sending advertisements. Maybe the best approach is to develop immunity to all attempts to sell you something. Your post has reminded me that some people believe that talking on a mobile phone for long periods of time can cause damage too. I wouldn’t know about this either: I never use the phone if I can possibly avoid it; I have no landline, just a cheap PAYG mobile that I mostly use for exchanging texts when I am meeting someone. I am guessing that conspiracy investigators are actually safer than most: we can see the messages behind advertisements and have better things to do than spend hours on the phone talking drivel!

@truthdseeker this is a topic for a thread I have been thinking of creating for the Members Board for some time now.
There is no direct connection between curses and modern life: people in Greek mythology had curses put on them. Nor are curses restricted to conspiracy investigators!
If only I had a Time-Turner like the people in Harry Potter, I could catch up with all the recent posts and work on several threads at the same time!

Here is an interesting video on AI. Deep mind is a Google company
AI = mind control
Our brains are quantum computers which we don't how to use it. So the idea seems to be to overide our freewill and god given feelings and turn us into sophisticated robots centrally controlled by a massive computer.

Artificial environments and shopping
Shopping malls and department stores are not places I feel comfortable in. Even at the best of times I can barely tolerate them. I do wander in occasionally, but the big ones are overwhelming and soon I just want to get away.
My solution is to mostly use street markets, farmers’ markets, charity shops and independent shops, places with natural light and fresh air that are easy to escape from. I also know some good old-style indoor markets.
I’m not missing much; many department stores are dying, and the malls usually have the same old high street chain-store names. I save money by shopping around at places that do not pay high rents or have high running costs. I pay in cash too, so no one can study my spending habits.
I have found that getting good bargains and combining shopping in different areas with a bit of walking and exploring is a morale booster, which is good for having ideas for posts!
Being a conspiracy investigator is much more satisfying and worthwhile than being a consumer!

Modern cleaning materials
We definitely do not need most of the cleaning products that are available.
I feel fortunate in that as most of them make me feel ill, I must have saved a small fortune over the years by using gentle substitutes.
For example, I clean my windows with water with a little vinegar and a drop of a gentle cleaning liquid in it. Everyone says how clean they are. Sometimes it looks as if there is no glass there. Sprays in particular are lethal. It is not good to breathe in the fumes.
I wonder whether there is any link between being a conspiracy investigator and being unable to tolerate most modern cleaning products.

I have sensitivity to many chemicals and sprays. I imagine what most of us are highly sensitive persons. That makes us experience things others dont and forsee what others dont and protect ourselves. Our intuition nature has protected us from mass programming and gives us ability to see throw what many dont. Now when i look back at old videos i realise radio music and tv was used to program people. Frequencies applied. I guess we are affected but recover after break downs which renew is.
I was watching guy richie Sherlock holmes. In the movie he potrays holmes as highly intuitive and dr. Watson as the one who sees things in a realisr way although he is aware holmes has gift.
Whats interesting holmes is potrayed as having dark moments he locks himself in a room for months with curtains down and forgets time. Only watson comes , pays the bills, food, and checks on him . Or he gets him when they have a case.
The portrayal of holmes is exactly what man conspiracy theoriests are going through. The masons in the movie call the conspiracy theorist to discredit them and question their ability.
Holmes brings out the story of evil lord of the masons who wants to rule the world, takeover usa etc.
Holmes uses his intuition as we do here and follows leads until he found the masons use bribery, science tricks to try and control the world through frequencies, news media etc. but they have no control or power over intuitives as they can see and look beyond the scientific tricks.
We have seen kate with a white plaster on her fingers. On the holmes film he says that happens when the masons let blood during rituals. He talks of the evil lord ss product of sex ritual. All this conspiracy theorists talk about are in thst movie. I thought guy may be intuitive himself because I wonder how he knew some of those experiences only intuitives go through and his exposure of the masons. How come they didn’t block him. Or many people think its magic joke and don’t understand what he was communicating. When i watched the movie i said. Finally someone expains holmes intuitive talent to solve cases. I was amazed that holmes faced the same threats and problems of many conspiracy theorists. The masons are still going on like the movie never happened.

Being a conspiracy investigator is much more satisfying and worthwhile than being a consumer! I really wanted to share my experience on this. Last year on Christmas season i want to the supermarket in a msll and noticed alot of security and spies. I was dizzy and almost fell . My pyschic was disturbed and i was confused. I picked up bread and milk and left immediately. I came home thought i was crazy. Well i just thought the experience was traumatizing. I sent a neighbor to shop and she told me she bought alot of things more than her budget. I thought strange. I went again to the market after a few days and this time more alert. I noticed immediately I entered the market i became nervous. Felt someone watching snd being followed. I bought alot more as I become depressed by the music playing and them outside and at home i was well. I didn’t go to the market until late January. I noticed everything was back to normal. No depressing music, not security guys and pace was regular. I didn’t become dizzy. Then I realized that during Christmas they must have sprayed the market, increased frequencies, made loud depressing music play and beefed up security to make people buy more and more. The mallls I noticed now have security at the entry and the manage the music and ventilation and frequencies so that on some days they security dont let everyone in. I was shocked to see them treating shopping like a members club. They let women in and mean stayed out. Let young boys and girls and oriental looking guys were not let in. I was let in but i felt watched and my movements followed. They played loud sad music and the wifi frequencies made me unease. I left. I really feel unsure about all these developments. I shop too in small village shops now.

Its very important for exchanging experiences going forward and following on old and new developments . The intuitives and senstives are just maybe 15 % of the population. I think they are out to control everyone. Only that a few people dont fall in their traps. So they are curious to enter out minds and disrupt out psychics, frequencies to see how they can better their control mechanism. The sensitives and intuitives are different and have different levels. So its hard to monitor how long they are affected and how long it takes to recover. Many intuitives and sensitivies are not aware of their powers or how to heal after an attack but they do recover. The untra sensitivities have break downs, burn outs and many go off grid to recover others never recover. But what i noticed is with my case and others sensitivies I know. After recovering, they cannot be affected by the old programming as they move to a higher and stronger place. So the evil programmers have to work extra hard to catch up and update to that level. If they do then they face the danger they will use to higher frequencies for regular people and kill or make populations made. Yet they dont have that person able to monitor all untitives as they move to remote areas , forests and caves. So they will need alot updates to follow all intuitives. When i went of grind i take months and i dont even know when i will be back. Every day the intuition is different and soul different.

Yes they do. I noticed some four years ago. With whatsapp for instance if you block the camera and sensor it becomes impossible to make a call. If you open the cameras each time you start the phone, use whatsap to call or Facebook they camera takes a photo. So they file the conversation and texts with your pictures. If you block all , they use other methods to monitor you. They will ask after a call you to rate the call. If you click rates that way they know you are a human not a computer. They use ratings options of online services to make you confirm its you not a robot. They also use updates to install data collection. So after a call the app will update. That way it sends out the protocol. I noticed that my android would update all the major spy apps in the same time and regularly after a call. Google, whatsapp, facebook, photosharing sites. I bought a phone and its apple . I dont have an account and social media on it. I experience no updates. Only facebook and instagram may have followed me as I opened a web account and now they want me to use their platforms. Application like whatsapp have a very strong disruptive frequencies that i get headaches immediately i use them. YouTube increasingly many videos have subliminal frequencies.

I feel like every German could go mad and they wouldn't care. I feel like every German could kill themself and the wouldn't care either. Maybe they would actually be happy about it.

Increased sensitivity as time goes by?
I have noticed that my tolerance for some of the physical dangers has got lower and lower over the years.
I take this as a good sign: it means that I am cleaner and my danger detectors are in good working order! It means that I have become accustomed to living at a higher level so notice any deviations.
For example, I once bought a veggie burger and fries for the first time in many years. I had a long coach journey ahead of me and my options for food were limited. I felt really ill after eating it because I had become accustomed to much better food.
I read about someone who used to eat a whole big bagful of doughnuts at a time. This made her feel bloated and extremely queasy. After getting involved with spiritual development, she found that it took just two to reduce her to the same state.
Maybe it is not so much a question of increased sensitivity but of reduced inner contamination and numbness.
Sensitivity can be a huge handicap in some areas of life; it can be a big advantage in others.

I don't know whether or not smoke detectors can be harmful in themselves. Making them compulsory seems less intrusive when I think about fire risks.
I do agree that people who can think independently - conspiracy investigators for example - will find the nanny state and many forms of intrusion and compulsion unacceptable. Sometimes there is not a lot we can do about it.
I went through Frankfurt on a coach once, and hated the soulless modern buildings. Parts of Brussels are like that too.

Horrible sounds I hate
I can’t stand the false voices in the advertisements on the radio and TV, so I switch the sound off. They are the audio equivalent of junk food; they make me feel ill.
Many shops play loud - and awful - music. I find it unbearable, so I just don’t go in.
I think that being unable to tolerate these things is an advantage; it is a sign of health.
We are not missing much by avoiding them. Quite the reverse: we are doing ourselves a favour.

“I shop too in small village shops now.” Lavendel your post about the shopping mall was really informative. There are all kinds of tricks that those places use to make people spend more. Supermarkets move everything around from time to time, and this really annoys me. They do it to stop people going straight to what they want as this means that they spend less. I do go into a few of the major supermarkets, but I only get special offers and end-of-day bargains so they make a loss on me! Getting discounts and taking revenge makes me feel good. I must mention the people who try to sell you something or get you to join some group. They accost passers-by. They might be trying to sell a TV/Phone/Internet package or they may be religious. They are public nuisances. They are yet another reason to avoid shopping malls. I suspect that people like us make our own decisions about what we buy, and hate being approached. London has many branches of ALDI and LIDL, which are of German origin. I often go there as they are not in malls and have great products.

What I am about to write maybe has nothing to do with the above, but the above triggered my though process so I will mention it: Do you ever find yourself in situations that seem like they were scripted by some malevolent force? I had such thoughts before but maybe this is only due to my big imagination.
If those situations existed somebody or something must have a certain decree of control of the people who play out the script.

Compensation for working in horrible offices
“Do you ever find yourself in situations that seem like they were scripted by some malevolent force? I had such thoughts before but maybe this is only due to my big imagination.“ truthseeker I certainly do, or at least did. I hope to say more about this some time. However, there is another side to this. We may find ourselves in a situation that was scripted by a very benevolent force. I worked for a while in one of London’s most famous churches. It had a very positive effect on me as the working conditions suited me well. The surroundings were beautiful, and I was able to work undisturbed - except when someone came in to play the organ! I was offered this assignment on a plate, and consider it compensation for having to work in horrible offices, including some in modern buildings, and among noisy people. I call this positive paranoia, when you think that the universe has arranged something for your personal benefit. Forces may be working to sabotage the lives of people who may make good conspiracy investigators, but other forces may be working to help, encourage and reward them.

Town or country for conspiracy investigators? Lavendel you mentioned moving to forests and caves. A huge city may seem like a strange place for someone like me to live, but I find that the advantages outweigh the bad aspects. I could not adjust to living in a rural or even suburban area. I might feel physically healthier up in some mountains or deep in a forest and it would be good to get away from the noise and huge numbers of people, but I would suffer in other ways. I would miss the endless options when it comes to things to do and places to go for example. I suspect that the atmosphere or energy field created by millions of people living together, many of whom are ill and unhappy and some of whom are criminals or even evil, is poisonous and damaging. I just have to live with this, and get away from it from time to time. I can go to parks with lakes or have a day out at the seaside any time I want to. I have a small flat of my own and live partly off-grid. I try to balance time spent online in my bunker with time outside. I like to explore the big city. I like interesting buildings and I go on sightseeing tours upstairs on buses - walking can be very tiring. I have described some of the attractions of London elsewhere, but would like to mention public libraries as a very useful facility for conspiracy investigators. I have just received a notification that the bee book I reserved is ready for collection.

Self-scanning checkouts and electricity
More and more supermarkets and chain stores are replacing some - or most - of their manned tills by automated checkouts where people scan their own shopping. I never use them. I have even replaced items and walked out of places when I realized that there were no people on the checkouts. I have had trouble with electrical devices in the past, at times when I was not in a good state. I described in my blog some trouble I had with a cash machine and a coffee machine quite recently. I wonder whether anyone else has had such problems and hates these machines as much as I do. Being afraid that I will have a bad effect on these machines is one reason for not using them; they are taking also jobs away from people. Some good news: so many people are cheating when using these machines that some stores are considering going back to manned tills. For example, with loose fruit & vegetables you have to say what they are so people are putting avocados (expensive) through as carrots (cheap)! The DM had an article about it, which probably gave people ideas. One commenter said: “Thanks for the tip, DM. I've just been down to Tesco and put a 50-inch Smart TV through the self-service checkout as a bag of carrots. It worked like a charm!” This story was published worldwide: “A German man has been fined 208,000 euros ($326,000) for cheating at a supermarket self-service checkout. Munich's district court convicted the 58-year-old businessman of theft for trying to pass off 47 euros worth of veal liver as fruit. The man, who was not identified, had done the same thing three times before...” www.abc.net.au/news/2018-02-21/german-man-fined-thousands-for-checkout-cheating/9471470

The Frankfurt Tower has been mentioned in a few posts. We have something like that in London. It is called the Canary Wharf Tower. It has a blinking light on the top - to stop aeroplanes crashing into it. Sometimes the light is red, sometimes white. I went there for a meeting on the 34th floor very recently. The view was amazing, but the working conditions are exactly the ones I can’t cope with. The windows are sealed and the office is open plan.Luckily, I will be doing the work at home.

The combination of obelisk with a nearby dome is of interest to many conspiracy investigators. This tower has the O2 dome in nearby Greenwich (name means green settlement) where we find the 0 degrees longitude meridian, and they are connected by a tunnel for tube trains under the Thames... The official address of this building is One Canada Square. The complex is named for Canada by Olympia and York, the original developers of the site owned by the Paul Reichmann family of Toronto.
