“Abandon the urge to simplify everything, to look for formulas and easy answers, and to begin to think multidimensionally, to glory in the mystery and paradoxes of life, not to be dismayed by the multitude of causes and consequences that are inherent in each experience—to appreciate the fact that life is complex.”
~ M. Scott Peck

By Catherine Austin Fitts

This week, we continue the publication of our 1st Quarter 2023 Wrap Up. Dr. Joseph P. Farrell joins me for Part II of News Trends & Stories.

In Part II, Dr. Farrell and I go through the six components of Solari’s Building Wealth framework, summarized below, with Dr. Farrell contributing a number of fascinating “info-truffles.” Our aim is to translate the macroeconomic events we reviewed in Part I into actions you can take in your daily lives and work.

Part #1 – Your Free and Inspired Life: Building a free and inspired life is about aligning your investments of intention, time, and resources with your vision and purpose.
Part #2 – Navigation Tools: With discernment, you can find the intelligence you need for your personal strategic and financial planning.
Part #3 – Risk Management: In a high-friction environment, risk management is an essential investment for building personal and family wealth.
Part #4 – Living Equity: The people around you, your health and education, and philanthropy are phenomenal places to invest your time and resources.
Part #5 – Financial Equity: Use your understanding of how to build living equity to build financial equity—they are two sides of the same coin.
Part #6 – Turtle Forth: Move forward steadily, taking action and refusing to quit.

In Part II, Dr. Farrell and I also go over our perennial list of unanswered questions—a list that keeps getting longer! Fortunately, the list of heroes providing inspiration also continues to grow, and we describe some of the great people doing great things in the 1st Quarter.

After publishing the two parts of News Trends & Stories, we will continue with our theme: The Future of Financial Freedom with Richard Werner. This includes Richard’s excellent memo on “Why a Sovereign State Bank is Good for Tennessee.” We will then publish my Equity Overview for the 1st Quarter in early May.

Recognizing that each person’s circumstances are unique, we hope our News Trends & Stories discussion will help you determine the actions you can take and the tactics that are right for you.

Money & Markets

In Money & Markets this week, John Titus and I will cover the latest events and continue to discuss the financial and geopolitical trends we are tracking in 2023—and the growing pushback against corruption. Post questions at the Money & Markets commentary here.

  1. Dear Catherine, great discussion as always. On mr. global going after religion and whatever is sacred, nothing new. All totalitarian powers throughout history have first and foremost gone against religions and houses of worship everywhere totalitarian control has manifested itself. Cause if you kneel down to God, you won’t kneel down to them.

  2. Re: hollow moon spaceships, see Moonfall (2022) from the director of Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow. China funded $40M of the $140M movie budget. It was made during Covid lockdowns without access to real world, so it’s heavy on special effects and artificial sets.

  3. Regarding the question of the second coming, Rudolf Steiner makes it quite clear in his Anthroposophy (Spiritual Science) that the physical appearance of Christ on Earth (i.e. the incarnation into a physical human body on Earth) occurred only once, two thousand years ago in Palestine, and will not recur. Rather, the reappearance of Christ would take place in the spiritual realm, the so-called “reappearance of Christ in the etheric”. The “etheric” refers to the spiritual realm closest to our physical Earth. This is indicated in the New Testament as “Christ in the clouds” (apologies for the clumsy paraphrase – the correct quote is not occurring to me).

    It is therefore, in my humble opinion, a waste of time sitting around waiting for a new physical incarnation of Christ, as it ain’t going to happen. In fact His reappearance has already taken place in the etheric realm, actually in the 1930’s so we are told. It would be more productive to focus our energies on the requisite spiritual development with the aim of advancing to the point where we could begin to perceive the etheric Christ and commune with Him (what this “spiritual development” entails would be another discussion).

    I am in agreement with Joseph when he says that he does not subscribe to any of the standard millennial teachings/beliefs, I think he is saying because they are too materialistic. It would be interesting to compare what C.S. Lewis has to say about the subject, which Joseph points our attention to. .

    1. It all depends on if you have more faith in Rudolf Steiner or Luke, chapter 12, vs 45 & 46.

  4. What a great conversation. Many new things to investigate such as solar wind and Russia’s decapitation strategy, many people to learn about such as Ingo Swann and Charles Fort, and also many intriguing questions to ponder such as ‘Where are creativity and consciousness located?’ and ‘Is the body in the soul?’

    I love the story about Catherine inventing ideas for Jack Kemp (time 1.32.00). It reminded me of an incident Benjamin Franklin related in his Autobiography:

    “In order of time, I should have mentioned before, that having, in 1742, invented an open stove for the better warming of rooms, and at the same time saving fuel, as the fresh air admitted was warmed in entering, I made a present of the model to Mr. Robert Grace, one of my early friends, who, having an iron-furnace, found the casting of the plates for these stoves a profitable thing, as they were growing in demand. To promote that demand, I wrote and published a pamphlet, entitled “An Account of the new-invented Pennsylvania Fireplaces…” etc. This pamphlet had a good effect. Gov’r. Thomas was so pleas’d with the construction of this stove, as described in it, that he offered to give me a patent for the sole vending of them for a term of years; but I declin’d it from a principle which has ever weighed with me on such occasions, viz., That, as we enjoy great advantages from the inventions of others, we should be glad of an opportunity to serve others by any invention of ours; and this we should do freely and generously.

    An ironmonger in London however, assuming a good deal of my pamphlet, and working it up into his own, and making some small changes in the machine, which rather hurt its operation, got a patent for it there, and made, as I was told, a little fortune by it. And this is not the only instance of patents taken out for my inventions by others, tho’ not always with the same success, which I never contested, as having no desire of profiting by patents myself, and hating disputes. The use of these fireplaces in very many houses, both of this and the neighbouring colonies, has been, and is, a great saving of wood to the inhabitants.”

    The spirit of Ben Franklin is alive and well.

  5. My friend & I were coming home today. A person pulled out in front of us completely in our way & turned to give my friend hail Colombia for being there! Her wrong turned into my friend’s wrong when she was completely in the wrong for pulling out right in front of her. We could have been rear-ended from her actions! Just bonkers

    1. we will have to navigate more irrational behavior. Prayer covering called for!
