Voluntary Donation of DNA

I am a mother of four in my mid 30′s and I have been told that I have some psychic abilities, mainly psychometry, paranormal, and lately remote viewing. Things come to me in the form of pictures in my mind, feelings and impressions, and sometimes sounds. I typically get them when asked to focus on specific objects or events. I clear my mind, think of the question or object and this blog is an example of what I get. This blog is a way for me to organize all my thoughts.

Q. This is going to sound really weird, but I have had a nagging question in my mind and want to ask your opinion on what you get with it. There is a push in recent days with TV commercials and online ads from genealogy companies encouraging people to send in their DNA to learn more about their heritage and to shed light on what hidden ethnicities they may have. On the surface, this seems harmless and interesting to people who are into that kind of thing, or who have questions about their particular heritage.

However, I have a red flag in the back of my mind that I just cannot shake. I just wonder if this is a ploy to collect DNA from people to use it for “other” purposes of which we may have no idea, and no say. I have heard that there are secret underground bases and rumors that these are used in cloning experiments, and I wonder if DNA samples are needed to keep that program going? 

Perhaps I just have too active an imagination and sending off one’s DNA to learn about their heritage is helpful for people and a harmless endeavor. Can you put my mind at ease with this? IS there an ulterior agenda behind the push for people to submit DNA, or am I just reading into things? I would love for it to be the former, and for this to be a worthwhile thing for people to do, if they wish.

Thank you for your time.
A.  As I look into this, I do see an enormous gathering of data from many sources.  This isn’t unique to just DNA, but location (Facebook), habits (store cards, credit cards), and spending trends (credit cards, and partly why the drive to force everything to be electronic).It also appears that the collection of data is designed in such a way that the person volunteering doesn’t even realize that there are uses for this information aside from providing entertainment or information to the volunteer  

I don’t see people being “cloned” off this, but I do see the population being analyzed in respect to geographic locations.  For example, where are the population shifts and what effects do certain immunizations / spraying / chemicals have on certain population groups.  I also see a huge need for this in the marketing arena.  

Not all information gathering is bad, but sometimes that information is used by the government to know what areas may be tougher to control (and let them ponder what may need to happen in the event some social unrest were to occur).  It also allows the media to know how to treat a certain area, and gives marketing teams an edge when pushing their products.

In evaluating this, I see everything as a balance.. If you provide them with something they want, they will provide you with something you want.  Sometimes trading a photo with a location is worth the entertainment of sharing on Facebook, and other times you may want to keep things private  It is a personal choice depending on how you feel about the exchange. 

And that is all I have for this reading.  Thank you.  Love and light-
