A viewer asks: “I’ve been having a difficult time lately, as well as some other Mercenary Army Program veterans in our informal group. Is something happening we should know about? Why is my body reacting like it did a couple of years ago? With an apparent auto-immune response to something? What are these new marks on my abdomen about?” What can we tell him?

These experiences you are having are yet again the consequence of inner emotional turmoil in the ongoing struggle you are having living with your past and wanting a different future, and thereby being in a kind of inner conflict with yourself and ultimately with the interlopers who would like to control you. This is nothing new and you will have this kind of interplay for some time because it is a serious matter, the stakes are high for both parties, and it is serious business to determine who is truly in charge of you. That is the contest ongoing. You are winning and that in a sense is a hard-won fight not because it is an improbable goal, but because the mind has been manipulated and that makes it harder for you to be certain of controlling things from day-to-day. This is part of the inner fear set as well, that you are not sure of yourself and your ability to maintain control of things. So against that backdrop, there will be ups and downs. These physical symptoms you are experiencing are emotionally based, so they are not physical issues or dilemmas per se, but consequences reflected in the body of the emotional inner discord and turmoil. These sensations and manifestations are not a threat, but a byproduct of the emotional energy being generated. It simply has to go somewhere and then things will happen as a consequence, but the end result is not a danger, more an annoyance and inconvenience.
