"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!

  1. 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!

  2. 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!

  3. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. 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

  7. Dear Catherine

    I have been feeling quite down and very apprehensive about the future. Although I see some brilliant people in the internet in my real life I am surrounded by zombies so your uplifting interview with John Rappoport was a well-timed and well-needed dose of inspiration.

    The poem you recited ‘Tell Me a Story’ was beautiful and moving. Thank you for sharing it,

    Dr Joseph P Farrell is very knowledgeable in matters of religion, spirituality and culture. In ‘Microcosm Medium The Cosmic Implications Of Mind Control Technology’ Dr Farrell said, “So you see a tremendous shift right at the end of the 18th century as you’re entering the Romantic era in the air where music and literature and painting become a personal expression rather than an expression of this more universal tradition. As a result of that art begins to quickly degenerate. You just consider the fact that at the beginning of the 19th century you have Beethoven. At the end of the 19th century what do you have in music? You will have Debussy, you have Arnold Schoenberg. You have all of these wild experiments and the so called high music becomes unlistenable because it’s so personal. It’s so individualized and oftentimes very ugly that you lose the object itself. You lose the tradition. So there’s a tremendous shift that happens in that 100 years during the 19th century and we’re kind of living with the after-effects today.”

    Judging from this quote I get the impression that Dr Farrell is not much of a fan of Romanticism, so I am sure it would be enlightening to have Dr Farrell and John Rappoport discussing William Blake and Romanticism.

  8. Thank you Catherine,
    for everything and allowing us to participate in all this!

  9. “invent another thought” !! excellent daily advice.

    here is a favorite poem:

    The Thought Fox by Ted Hughes

    I imagine this midnight moment’s forest:
    Something else is alive
    Beside the clock’s loneliness
    And this blank page where my fingers move.

    Through the window I see no star:
    Something more near
    Though deeper within darkness
    Is entering the loneliness:

    Cold, delicately as the dark snow
    A fox’s nose touches twig, leaf;
    Two eyes serve a movement, that now
    And again now, and now, and now

    Sets neat prints into the snow
    Between trees, and warily a lame
    Shadow lags by stump and in hollow
    Of a body that is bold to come

    Across clearings, an eye,
    A widening deepening greenness,
    Brilliantly, concentratedly,
    Coming about its own business

    Till, with a sudden sharp hot stink of fox
    It enters the dark hole of the head.
    The window is starless still; the clock ticks,
    The page is printed.

  10. Hi Catherine,

    I really enjoy all your talks with Jon, but this one was something special. Have you seen the “Boxed-Horse Principle” by John Taylor Gatto? Explains how schooling and lockdowns work pretty simply. It’s part of a larger talk he did from 16 years ago. He also brings up (in the longer talk) countless examples of successful people who were school dropouts or had minimal schooling, but still gave themselves a superb education.

    https://youtu.be/8Pwfq-6d1F4

    So many of the angry parents at school board meetings need reassurance that dropping out of school to pursue a calling/business is a great alternative to complying to the impending vaccine mandates (!) Could be more important than Cash Friday, soon.

  11. That was weird, in a good way.
    My life’s work was and is, turning mathematical ideas into reality.

      1. I have a Masters degree in Control Engineering.
        I was always curious about how and why things work.
        For example, exactly how to get electricity to South Africa from Botswana and vice versa. The power lines are incidental, it’s more the why, if you get my meaning.
        I’ll defer on the “wonderful” – there are some very bad ideas out there.
        Electrical Engineering pays better, hence I spent most of my career in electrical power, until I retired. Now, I find finance is much cleaner.

  12. I know we are are unique. Jon blows my mind. I reread and re-listen to all his work. And use it. This morning his Full Power book. Its like, how can a human be so accurate, like a time traveler and more. And how Catherine when she starts talking and sometimes all of a sudden gets some kind of super download right before our eyes and its off the charts. Ok I will go listen to this now.

  13. I was thinking today about all that is going on in the world, and was feeling a little down. But then I thought the only way to feel better was to find something positive to focus on … and I thought of all the people who are like me who know about the big con being played. Right after that, I read about the restaurants, gyms & businesses suing NY state over the vax passport (felt good). And I then I watched this interview (felt great)!!

  14. I get Jon’s news letter every morning. He was the first person to call the Pandemic a fraud.

  15. I get Jon’s ‘No More Fake News’ Blog in my email and it is the first thing I read when I check my email. Why? Because he is the voice of knowing ! After purchasing Exit from the Matrix and listening to it daily I feel I have walked through the door that explains this crazy world where I have ,for the most part, felt out of place. My only salvation was art and then Buddhism. Because of Jon views on art I have hope. I held those views and yet I have been conditioned to doubt myself. The scales have been removed from my eyes! Thank you Jon! I also value your knowledge and wisdom Catherine and the Solari staff!

  16. Although I’ve a great respect for the journalistic integrity of Rappaport, Blake is a Luciferian occultist. You seem to have an affinity for ‘spiritualists’ of the western occult tradition (Steiner, Juden Peterstein, and now Blake).

    You do understand, the very tradition so seductive is the very same that produced the revolutionary ideologies, including the financial system you claim to rail against. The very artwork at the head of this post is a rendition of the ‘Light Bearer.’

    1. Luciferic influences are a part of our reality. I feel having these insights added to the Solari Report bring wonderful balancing! John wrote how many articles on Covid? Why not find inspiration and balance. Wonderful!

      1. Because I’m not a dualistic Gnostic, I am not theologically nor philosophically illiterate, and I grasp the futility of building culture on a morally relative negation of universals.

  17. highly recommend all of jon rappoport’s work. as catherine always says, mind control is the biggest factor in all the craziness happening, and as rappoport says, imagination is the way out of the mind control paradigm.

    would love to hear more about william blake and any other of jon’s recommendations.

  18. This is the main reason I didn’t fall for the ONE MAGIC VIRUS. When Jack True spoke of Al-Qaeda, a disease that does not exist. I am amazed at how prophetic you and Jon are, because you stick with the truth. If it wasn’t for my son’s vax brain injury in 2008 that woke me out of my college education/indoctrination BSN-RN training aka “ZOMBIE RN” and reading the Matrix Revealed a few years later. I am not sure where I would be right now. Thank you Jon & CAF for all you do. xo
