I again make note to everyone to be cautious of specific websites. The website nibiruancouncil dot com, has been rated as an untrustworthy website by members of the WOT (Web of Trust). http://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/nibiruancouncil.com
Though this may resonate with you, in order to resonate well, you would have to pay out some big $$$

Quote: It costs a great deal of money to become apart of this exclusive group – with initial ‘ Are you a Nibiruan - Starseed type readings‘ with session prices ranging at 125.00 an hour with Jelaila and 100.00 an hour with Jonathan. Even if it takes only a few minutes to find out if you are a special Starseed (I am sure they’ll claim indeed YOU are, if you’ve paid the cash) you will pay the hour price. They both claim to be Remote viewers and psychically gifted but request that you send (along with payment) a list of questions PRIOR to the supposedly psychic session. It’s promised that questions will not be delved into before session time) this is where you have a session with either Starr to decide. It is called the ‘General Counseling Session’. This is the first step in the counseling work offered by the alleged Nibiruan Council. In this session you are supposed to discover whom you are, where you came from, your life purpose, and how to get to the next step on your spiritual path etc. Chances are, you’ll be told you’ve got a ‘life blueprint ‘ to become a Nibiruan Councilor.
Then a potential Nibiruan recruit must pay about 2300.00 plus dollars and up to become a Nibiruan Councilor. Initially there are mini sessions done in groups, which usually are a basic live infomercial for the Starr’s goods, workshops and that cost 20.00 to 40.00 dollars. These sessions last for around one to one and a half hours and the Nibiruan dream is discussed. Jelaila Starr, according to one former member, is very charismatic in her introduction to Nibiruan lifestyle and is well versed in the power of persuasion. She discusses information about Starseeds and her readings, workshops and becoming a ‘Galactic Human’.
Sold at these events, are books, tapes, vitamin supplements, colon cleanse kits and other pricey kits that you must buy for additional cost if you decide that you are a Starseed and have a ‘Life Blueprint’ reading from either Starr. The tapes range from 9.95, videos at 19.95 and kits ranging form 20.00 to 799.00 dollars. By the time you learn if you are a Starseed and become a “Galactic Councilor Apprentice’ you could very well pay a few thousand dollars, this doesn’t include travel expenses and conference offerings which Starseeds are expected to pay! You are also expected to buy and sell the products…BEWARE. This is nothing more than a moneymaking pyramid scam thoughtfully laid out by the Starr’s! Councilors are all over the country from coastline to coastline and occasionally the Starrs recruit at mind, body, spirit and psychic fairs.
In the workshops the Starr’s use very common as well as normal psychological traits to separate the Starseed, walk-in from the regular Joe. Star-trek type of terminologies are used as well as egos are stroked in the attempt to convince the recruit they are indeed Starseeds and need to learn further via the Starr’s workshops. At least in the beginning these classes sound attractive to the recruit. Recently I have gotten information from a few former members who’ve claimed that these empowerment sessions of becoming a Galactic Councilor is misleading and pricey as well as mentally degrading and depressing. The prospective GC must sign an agreement before attending classes. Techniques are used to badger and degrade the prospect – such as calling people ‘On the Carpet’ that results in a tearing down of the ego to shreds, which is a common a mind control technique used by various groups to break the will and then reprogram the prospect. The goal is to tear down the ego and then to employ the group mindset in place of the prospects own thoughts and feelings, especially objections the new NCA might have.
Quote:Look at a group’s structure; here are questions you should ask that should raise red flags if a straight answer isn’t given:
1. Are they a pyramidal type of leadership with information coming from the top people?
2. Are you asked to sell Groups products by putting up monies beforehand; buying slightly discounted items without having the ability to earn a fair and balanced return, hourly income or a salary?
3. Are you required to take one pricey workshop after another and shamed told something like’ it’s your spiritual duty, etc or made to feel bad when you can’t afford to do so?
4. Are the workshops structured to reprogram your own thinking, i.e., with titles like, emotional cleansing, Starseed reprogramming, getting rid of ore old self, finding your inner child, etc?
5. Are workshops several days in length at a wilderness or some type of conference retreat? (This in itself is a danger as skilled leaders will set up a several day session, using other group members as well to reprogram your thinking)
6. Are you required to place the group before your family duties, your own needs such as attending REQUIRED daily or weekly meetings without question, conference events even if you cannot afford attending or paying for conference trips etc?
7. Are you made to feel bad by leadership or other group members if you ask questions that involve leadership’s teachings or if you find contrary behaviors that are opposed to teachings and you question them?
8. Are there sessions that are designed to tear down emotions, using guilt, shame, psychological tools used to pull you apart then supposedly put you back together again.
Answer YES to any the above is an indication the group, leadership is up to no good. The sad part to all this is, people are taken advantage of – cults are formed and some people will possibly die as a result of channeled information.
As benign as Nibiruan group seems – there is an innocuous undercurrent that pulls down and feeds off the psyche of the recruited members, according to several former affiliates. I cannot say this enough, it’s better to learn information on your own terms that to get involved with a channel and his or her group. Listen to red flags – be suspicious of this type of information! Jelaila claims to be a compassionate teacher – where is the compassion when she mentally degrades a person with her, 'on the Carpet’ sessions?
It’s better to pass this group up – if you ever see them at a fair or conference event. You don’t have to learn the hard way – ever!
