Bank on This
Catherine Austin Fitts is a woman of substance. She is super-intelligent, gracious, courageous, and eager to educate. She believes in creating strong community, in developing local food sources, and is grounded by her convictions and belief in God. She has worked in government, been an entrepreneur, and publishes the Solari Report. Yes, she’s living her heroic probability.
No stranger to unearthing the truth, Catherine finds the good or unmasks the fraud. She was Assistant Secretary for the Department of Housing and Urban Development during the Bush Sr. Administration where she developed an accountability system for tracking monies. Later, she would discover “missing” funds in the department’s budget (about $4 trillion). She enlisted Dr. Mark Skidmore at Michigan State University to check the numbers; his research team validated the original amount plus additional monies for a total of $21 trillion; further investigation bumped that figure to $42 trillion.
During a recent discussion with HighWire’s Del Bigtree, Catherine provided context for understanding the current banking situation. “First you take out the small businesses (closures of last 3 years), then you take out the small banks.” Her knowledge of what initiated the bank run, her confirmation that bailouts lead to government control, her perspective that the French pension demonstrations are about broken promises and “taxation without representation,” and her explanation of how digital systems and currencies can be used to “turn your money off and on and even take away your kids,” weave a different picture than what we’re given by mainstream media.
But, as demonstrated through her publication The Solari Report, whose mission is actionable intelligence to live a free and inspired life, Catherine guides her team to focus on presenting an accurate explanation (30-50 pages) of a topic whether the food system, mind control, digital currencies, health as well as banking, the economy and many more.
Beyond the scary stuff, Catherine offers solutions including: (1) Cash Every day campaign, (2) Getting together with “wonderful banks that are well-governed” and ask how can we help them remain strong, and (3) Build “bottom-up wealth communities.”

The Libra Full Moon (4/5 @ 9:24 pm PT; 4/6 @ 12:24 am ET) is the 7th and final in a row of full moons all at 16 degrees of the sign in which they have appeared. This is considered a tipping point and the dawning of a new episode for humanity.
Full Moons are always opposite the Sun (currently @16 degrees of Aries), and thus now shines the spotlight on Aries themes of initiatory energy, courage, individuality, independence, new beginnings. The Libra Moon is about balance, fairness, law, harmony, cooperation, relationships and thus its glyph or symbol is the scales of justice. Consider putting love, joy, and peace on those scales. Meanwhile, Uranus in Taurus (revolution, freedom, banking/finance, ag/food) is supported by Mercury, Venus, the North Node (our collective future). There is hardly a clearer picture of why banking is collapsing (see the CA Fitts interview), people are rebelling, and issues with food persist.
There are now planets in each of the elements of fire (Sun, Chiron, Jupiter, Eris), earth (Uranus, Venus, Mercury, N Node), air (Moon, Pluto), and water (Saturn, Neptune, Mars, S Node) further creating foundational balance in our solar system.
Tools for Success – From “to do” to “Ta Da”
One of the easiest and most effective ways to move forward, get things completed, serve more people, and step out of overwhelm is to create a To Do list. But, by replacing the “o” in both words with an “a”, everything changes. I can see the smile, imagine the smirk, hear the “off her rocker” or “you’ve got to be kidding” comments. Many might argue, “I don’t need a list; it’s all in my head.” And as long as it’s in your head, the chances of it manifesting are slim; the likelihood of staying stuck or remaining in stasis is high.
As discussed in the Vision/Belief/Mission process, the very act of physically writing ideas on paper accesses and engages different parts of the brain, shifts perspective, and makes room for the brain to perform other tasks, be more creative, dream new ideas, respond to changes or emergencies. Having a list leads to being:
(1) more accountable, (2) more real about the tasks needed to reach a goal, 3) able to delegate, (4) able to focus and stay the course/on target.
Here is the magic. Say out loud “to do”. Can you hear how your voice drops perhaps followed by a heavy sigh over the daunting tasks before you? The frequency of overwhelm, dread, resignation, even “I don’t want to” weighs like an anchor. You are projecting into the future and not being in the present. Now, like a magician pulling a rabbit out of the hat, exclaim “Ta Da”. Can you feel the energetic uplift to excitement, the celebration of a feat completed, the confidence to tackle another job, and even a sense of victory in overcoming one’s own limitations?
Try this:
- At the top of a piece of ruled paper write “TA DA”
- Start a list of things to be done leaving a couple of lines between each item (tip: Keep personal goals such as laundry, clean the bathroom, etc. in a separate column or page. This declutters the mind but keeps your focus on the biz/mission.)
- As most people are visual, using a black or blue pen to write the list followed by a red pen to mark through the completed items stimulates the sense of satisfaction.
- Fill the blank lines between tasks with details needed to complete the overall task (the name/number to contact, what you want to say or address)
- Make notes in red as a task is tackled. Again, exudes feeling of completion.
- When task is fully completed, draw a red line through it and put a red check mark to the left
- Pronounce a victorious “TA DA” and feel the surge of energy and the rise in frequency to move to another task. (I also raise both arms in joy or draw an upraised fist to my body “Yes, TA DA!!!”
Nothing to lose, lots to gain!

Weekly Health Spotlight
Dr. Stan Ekberg is an Olympic decathlete who became a holistic doctor and provides science based education on a wide range of health topics in an easy-to-follow manner. His focus is on teaching people how the body really works, relating the science and data that is essential to mastering one’s own personal health decisions and lifestyle choices. He discusses how to prevent and reverse obesity, diabetes, dementia, fatty liver, toxic kidneys, thyroid issues, hair loss, high blood pressure, insulin resistance, as well as how to reduce stress, how to exercise, how to maximize brain health, and more. He debunks many commonly held beliefs and doctor recommendations, such as explaining why blaming heart attacks on cholesterol is like blaming a house fire on the fire-fighters who show up at the scene to save the day.
I was first drawn to his Dr. Ekberg’s YouTube Channel by a recommended video in which Ekberg explained why, contrary to expectations, walking was better for weight loss than running. I find that in each video I watch I learn something unexpected based on the contents of its title. Each video is less than 25 minutes, sometimes far less, making it easy to view during breaks in my workday.

Private Consultations Now Available
If there is one thing for sure on the journey to freedom, it’s that answering one question tends to create even more questions to answer.
When you’re first getting started, this can be frustrating. After a while, you realize it’s very, very normal.
Whether it’s a question about correcting your status, dealing with birth certificates or passports, dealing with debt, creating private entities including trusts or resolving a situation with public officers or three letter agencies, there are a lot of questions that require personal and private attention.
We’re making 60 minute Private Consultations available for people who want to draw on our years of experience navigating some of these very important areas.
If you have an issue you’d like to address, you can find all of the details about this offering here.
Sincerely,
The FreedomWorks Team
