Here’s a strange topic for a blog purportedly devoted to Life, understanding, personal growth and the importance of the Shaman-Type in societies throughout the world.
Are you following the price of gold?
I am. It fascinates me. (And full disclosure I have investments in a number of gold and silver miners.)
You see, a great global geopolitical and geo-economic change is slowly taking place before our very eyes.
And gold is charting the changes.
Since say AD 1500 gold has been hoovered up from around the world and has filled the vaults of first Europe and then for over a century the United States.
Today that process is reversing and gold is flowing back outwards, towards the East.
The consequences of this outflow of the world’s wealth for America, Europe and the world is bound to be epochal over the next few centuries and I’m just sorry I won’t be around for it.
A new world is taking shape, a new phase with new opportunities afforded for those willing to embrace it.
A golden age?
Nah, that’s wishful thinking…
And we don’t indulge in that here at the Omphalos Cafe.
Best be prepared though…
Hence the Omphalos Cafe.
