Comparing Ra and the Cassiopaeans

[Asolsutsesvyl]

There's some additional odds and ends about the contents and methods of the Cassiopaean channeling I've not described previously.

To begin with, here's some very peculiar "Ra channeling" in the early years of the Cassiopaea material, in a short and unique exchange, which sounds more like a cosmic prank call than anything else.

July 27, 1994 F****, Candy, Laura

After a brief encounter with an easily identifiable "dead dude," whom
we sent away, we used our Reiki symbols, asked specifically for our
communicants from Cassiopaea and the following came through:
Q: We want to communicate with the Cassiopaeans.
A: I am Ra keeper of light.
Q: What are you here to tell us?
A: UFO not all bad.
Q: Why is the connection so bad tonight?
A: You see you are tired.
Q: [Unknown question.]
A: Level through 6.
Q: [Unknown question.]
A: Planet.
Q: [Unknown question.]
A: Always. Please let me go.

It was clear that the energy was very weak on this last contact. It was
also curious that the character "Ra" came through and identified
himself as a "keeper of light."

There's no further exploration of how that session differed from the others.

(Symbolically, I think that "keeper of light" sounds a bit backwards, since a star radiates light, instead of (like a black hole) keeping it.)

In the modern Cassiopaean channeling (after that of the older years which e.g. Montalk finds of much better quality), they've experimented to varying extents here and there with who plays how large a role at the board which is used. It's a bit more flexible than LKJ always having her hand in the process of letters and other symbols being selected.

[...]

Actually, I forgot to mention how in the early years, a smaller portion of the channeling was "direct channeling" through the mediumistic Mr F. (who has a talent for entrancing himself and passively letting stuff through). Those sessions -- the above is not one of them -- fit right in with early year contents in general.

LKJ wrote about her years and decisive break with F. extensively, and I'll not bother summarizing it here. The main thing I want to note, in relation to how LKJ thinks of the Ra channeling, is how she generally seems to associate trance channeling with an odious atmosphere and attitude to the channeled source, after F.'s early direct channeling reportedly had a very smug, condescending, and otherwise offensive air about it despire the words coming through being fine. See the part below about that.

Since the contents were pretty much the same with and without F. as vocal speaker, did the negative atmosphere come from F. (as LKJ thinks, extensively noting signs of an invisible power struggle), or did it come from the channeled source, in a way that comes through when spoken by a trance medium but not through the filtering of an Ouija board (thus masked in later years)?

The Cassiopaean stuff gives me weird and creepy vibes.

By the way, I noticed that there is a mention of Cassiopeia from Ra, which was for the constellation. Does anyone know if the so-called Cassiopaean entities are related to this??

11.12 # Questioner: Where are these three entities now?

Ra: I am Ra. These entities are in the dimension known to you as fourth. Therefore the space/time continua are not compatible. An approximation of the space/time locus of each would net no actual understanding. Each chose a fourth-density planet which was dedicated to the pursuit of the understanding of the Law of One through service to self, one in what you know as the Orion group, one in what you know as Cassiopeia, one in what you know as Southern Cross; however, these loci are not satisfactory. We do not have vocabulary for the geometric calculations necessary for transfer of this understanding to you.

Yes.

The Cassiopean channelings are an example of negative entities rather successfully (as of now) pretending to be positive entities and de-tuning positive channelers through doomsday prophecies, messages of fear, and opposition.

I agree that it matches. "Cassiopaea" is officially pronounced the same as "Cassiopeia", and the Ra material was spoken, so either spelling can match Ra's words.

There was an exchange in the Cassiopaean material about the reference in the Ra material, but the discussion doesn't add any clarity about Ra's mention. From the 1996-08-11 session:

Q: (L) OK, I've got a question on that. C*** called today, and in her
conversation about the Ra material, she asked me, was I aware that
in the Ra material, they designated Cassiopaea as the residence of
some real negative, icky, Orion-type STS aliens. Can you make a
comment on these?
A:?
Q: (L) Also, the picture of the mantid-type beings in that document
that I lent to Shawn has these beings designated as Cassiopaeans.
Who are these Cassiopaeans? (T) Before they answer, can I make
a comment here? There is no star called Cassiopaea on our star
charts. (L) Oh, I know... (T) It's a constellation. So for her to read this
in the Ra material and go along with that there's a bunch of people
called the Cassiopaeans who are horrible people on a planet
someplace called Cassiopaea, there is no place called that. So there
can't actually be anyone called Cassiopaeans because there is no
Cassiopaea. (L) OK, can we get commentary on this?
A: Sounds good to us!

That was also the session in which the C's first claimed that the Ra material is "63%" accurate [while the C's material is claimed 71.7% accurate].

There's a long thread on the Cassiopaea forum analogous to this one. I haven't checked it since I was active on the Cassiopaea forum, but the same question was brought up there, without any conclusive answer. Someone tried to turn things around and delve into symbology in an attempt to associate Ra with Orion, but it wasn't found convincing by others.

A portion of the text in the opening post here, about Ra and language, I copied from a post I made in that thread. Somewhat earlier in the thread, a few who are into the Ra material (some are and some aren't in the Cassiopaea community) expressed preferring the language of Ra to that of the C's. Laura then suggested that those who prefer Ra don't really belong. She also perceived Ra's words to smugly and condescendingly speak down to the audience.

As Tobey at lawofone.info reports, the actual words recorded are monotone and most of the time in an even and fairly slow pace. In other words, there's no human emotion or attitude expressed at all. This "blankness" in Ra's words make them an excellent receiving surface for psychological projection, I think, and this seems to explain Laura's response to them.

My current thinking is that this Ra Q-and-A may explain the Cassiopaean contact:

67.20 # Questioner: Now, the main point of this line of questioning has to do with the first distortion and the fact that this window existed. Was this, shall I say, a portion of the random window effect and are we experiencing the same type of balancing in receiving the offerings of this entity as the planet in general receives because of the window effect?

Ra: I am Ra. This is precisely correct. As the planetary sphere accepts more highly evolved positive entities or groups with information to offer, the same opportunity must be offered to similarly wise negatively oriented entities or groups.

Well, there's also different ways of interpreting the same information that makes something more positive out of the Cassiopaean contact -- such as mixed or competing sources being channeled from the beginning, or even all the problems having to do with the agendas and filtering of (several) human participants.
