This is a bit of an unusual one. But this Meditation is geared around thanking the stories and mythologies that we have in our lives. Many things that are shared through artistic means are not 'factual' as such, but their pertinence to Truth and deeper principles may be more accurate and feeling than more objective statements that one may try to make about our lives and our perceived reality.
Think of Ra's thoughts on Star Wars:
So while Channeled Information can explicate things in more objective terms, on a day-to-day societal level, we have the movies, anime, tv shows and other narratives in music and dance that try to share understandings on a symbolic level. And once those Symbols are recognised and played with, they can yield more concrete elaborations and explications. What Ra calls "seating understandings".
But before that, and on an ongoing level, we can have things triggered by artwork and comics, and all artistic narratives.
It's a kind of service. Think of Phillip K Dick's sci-fi wonders (Total Recall, Minority Report, Bladerunner). The imagination can offer a portal to comprehension.
So that's this week's Meditation Theme.

Think of Ra's thoughts on Star Wars:
Quote:16.10 Questioner: You mentioned the word “Empire” in relation to the Orion group. I have thought for some time that the movie Star Wars was somehow an allegory, in part, for what is actually happening. Is this correct?
Ra: I am Ra. This is correct in the same way that a simple children’s story is an allegory for physical/philosophical/social complex distortion/understanding.
