"To see a World in a Grain of Sand
And a Heaven in a Wild Flower
Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand
And Eternity in an hour"
~ William Blake, “Auguries of Innocence“
By Catherine Austin Fitts
In our next interview, I explore with Jon Rappoport what the romantic poet and painter William Blake can teach us today about the power of imagination, vision, and faith – critical ingredients to living a free and inspired life and to making a difference in deeply troubled times.
Jon Rappoport’s teachings on imagination have had a profound influence on me and on many Solari Report subscribers. So when he published a new article on Blake and his relevance to our current situation, I immediately asked Jon to join me on the Solari Report.
For Let’s Go to the Movies, I recommend The Romantics, a three-part documentary telling how the romantic movement that started in the arts was successful in establishing freedom, nature, and eternity as dominant values to counter central control.
In Money & Markets, John Titus and I will review the latest financial and geopolitical news, and what it means for the months ahead. E-mail your questions for Ask Catherine or post at the Money & Markets commentary here.
Talk to you on Thursday!

I’m so glad I joined Solari. Hearing these Jon Rappoport interviews is priceless. I’m currently reading and listening to Jon’s Matrix Revealed collection. What an education. Time to start inventing!
Yup. That interview collection is indeed priceless.
This was a very helpful discussion. “When you have a thought that isn’t working, just choose a new thought. [something like that]” – John Rappaport
Absolutely brilliant!
Hi Catherine, Jon,
As a short sign of gratitude these few lines :
How mild the wind of Vision.
He tenderly renders me his Might.
At no point is there collision.
He is the wings,is True and Right.
Thanks.
While earnestly pondering how to shape life in a Vpassport world with the small growing circle of like minded friends, watching your discussion with Jon last night put cosmic fuel into my imagining process! I woke up with several really viable life changing ideas.

Found the material below while trying to bring some positivity back. There is a large spiritual component to imagining, or manifesting your reality, whether it be for good or bad. Please give this a chance and either listen or buy the book. Incredible stuff here which is exactly what you and Rappaport were discussing. The syncronicities I have been experiencing since learning and applying this reality have been mind blowing. And then today I hear you two discussing it !! Just awesome ! Thank you to everyone at Solari for the content you provide.

Dear Catherine,
Thank you so much for this interview with John. Essentially the topic of poetry,myth and the imagination all belong to a body of work called the Mythopoetic perspective. I have been studying this realm for over 20 years. There are many interpretations of the origins of this realm of study but I would place the modern aspect in the lap of Freud, Jung and Joseph Campbell.
A few months ago I had a dream that has lead to me to writing a narrative based on the Mythopoetic work of the aforementioned men, along with Poetry and Mythology, partenered with an infusion of knowledge about the deep state and its obvious employment of the Mythopoetic perspective upon the population.
I have laboured on this work holding the Solari member in my imagination as my audience. It is an offering for us; those that have the courage to look past the material horizon to what is possible in the realm of spirit, imagination and love. I see this as an introduction to a study rife with the cross pollinating effect of our collective imagination. It is a realm of the multitudinous as opposed to Mr. Global’s narrative of separation.
I have done my best, hiring an editor, many re-writes to make this offering this offering is agreeable to you. I can send you the introduction for your approval. I am unsure as to where to post, again only if this meets your approval.
In closing, BC has been hit with the ‘mandate’. I have seen images of the ‘detention centers’ already built outside of a small town called Vanderhoof. I fell into a depression. Then realized through listening to this interview that it was my writing and my garden that count. All else is of the external. The Mythopoetic is the soul’s narrative ever changing, ever blending with the emerging consciousness of possibility.
Thank you again for your work.
Love and Respect
