About Me
- Name: jm
I am a brilliant creation of the universe formed from the cosmic protoplasm sailing into eternity. I have two hands, two feet, a couple of great ears, and I'm clipping through life at a moderate pace; minding my p*s and q*s, crossing my t*s, dotting every i.

They don't call me the "duct tape queen for nuthin' - well the little laptop is still working with a bit of ingenuity and full knowledge it will probably not last.

comfort
this is very nice to think of.
Earlier i was thinking about painting as sanctuary. All art actually, song, painting, a room we step into for a moment away from everything else.
It often feels like that to me as i create, painting little rooms or sanctuaries and leaving them for others.
I wonder if you feel something similar?
Yeeeaayyy!!! I knew it! The laptop is still with us. Not time to go fully away from the comfort. Might not have to.
I feel exactly that. A room as sanctuary. It's so entirely different from the ordinary, the artistic space. Such a good thought as I think about singing for people. Taking the room into the bigger room. There is a way.
I've been doing some research on vision. There are two distinct pathways, one to the visual cortex and one to the brain stem. there are some blind people who can see to an extent with the brain stem.
I've missed the cafe.
I was just going to say...so very good to be back.
this is what people miss vision and sight two different things.
Our brains are completely amazing redundancy, remapping even if we lose parts, function "it" is still operating
Funny how things go. Timing, feeling, rightness.
I've been reading a book that might be up your alley, certainly Kadimiros'
Tracking the Soul with an Astrology of Consciousness. By Joe Landwehr.

I saw a science film last night on this very subject. It seems to be in the amygdala, where memory is stored and communicated to various brain parts.
oooooh, that book sounds good. Any ideas yet?
Would I ever love to see more astrology of consciousness around. Patience. Violence gets boring to me. Never had an appetite for it.
Can you tell me anymore about the book?
One really has to be diligent. Mars-Pluto opposition and the crowd screams violence. Well I'm experiencing the opp and I don't feel particularly violent. It's on my Uranus too. On your Sun. You haven't murdered anyone today, have you?
Astrology of Consciousness.
You are very astrologically talented.
He calls his system astropoetic joining astro logic with poetic language which blends the science and the art
He defines charts into chakra patterns.
What catches my interest is how from the 4th chakra (heart) upwards the rules change. Rather the influence of the planets are interpreted differently. A lot of what i'm reading echoes what i pick up from you.
I've found this same pattern in homeopathy.
He uses a porphyry chart system. I've been looking at the people who seem to have a "higher" chakra chart and this house system makes a lot of sense.
Nope not even murderous thoughts.
Except maybe some wishful thoughts for good old fashioned quality. I'm very, very sick of stuff breaking.
I'm too poor for this crap. I like to buy one quality thing and live with it for at least most of my life.
I saw a science film last night on this very subject.
You and me jm, what a pair, we could pop up some popcorn and be so entertained by science flicks.
Very very interesting. I've never used the porphry system so I don't know.
I am in complete agreement with the higher centers and planetary interpretation. I understand the heart chakra. I use that a lot. But probably most of my sense of the placements is from an evolutionary standpoint and the higher chakras.
I can analyse a chart and pinpoint all kinds of specific events and mundane things but I don't really want to. So I don't. A lot of it is proving something to someone else, and I really do seem to be losing some of that compulsion.

Omg, what a thought.
How wonderful. I just got a warm feeling right before I read that comment. It feels so good being back here with you.
Well the author is a practitioner who uses astrology to heal wounds. I have to walk around some of his stuff and this is not hard to do as he comes from the heart chakra and his stance is without judgment which in itself is refreshing.
My son and i were discussing something along similar lines and we were commenting on how pleasant it is to hang out with people who operate at a higher level a relief. We have all had to learn some language to communicate that feels harsh.
I've been having thoughts about this Mars retro in Cancer. I suddenly felt like embracing myself in comfort and lo, here you are. There is something to the 12 Cancer of your Uranus and my IC.
The world is so brutally foreign to me. I wish I could make it my home. fundamentally.
I don't know how "fundamentally" got in there!

same here
and in the process am trusted more (as healer)
do you think this bodes well for us to be more receptive to making money with our talents?

Just as I was posting about brutality. I think we might be going further in that direction (operating higher) as a group judging from recent talks at RU. I'm separating more and more from the mob. It's just not me.

well let's leave out the da and make it fun mentally.
Seems like i used to have more fun. I've been trying to put my finger on when that dried up.

True, i sense it among many, kinda milling on the precipice. My good buddy ex cop republican and i have been sharing some deep conversations that confirm that something is happening in people who are open to change.

Great question.

That could be the answer.
The way I look at it... I need to make money. No choice. It's really not about commerciality, sales, the public, etc., just me and my art and my needs. I think they'll buy because it has to be so.
I"m taking it slow without the compulsion, and might even not take the job I was going to in lieu of something else I have in mind. Trust is the operative word. And opening up my hand.
Ha ha ha!!!
fun mentally.
I'm with you. I haven't been having much fun at all. Can't tell when it dried up.
I was concerned for a while that with the entrance of Blogger the internet would become saturated with cliquish vanity pages all vying for page rank like jr high, and it has but still there is some guiding force that acts like a magnet to connect like kinds. The law of similars: like cures like.
My good buddy ex cop republican
I like this guy.
I think it's up to us to make the change manifest. I certainly feel the desire and the energy is also coming more and more from the ones in the know.
I feel I have to be vigilant in deleting what I think drains my vital force and also put conscious effort into cultivating what is good and in correct alignment. Constant adjustment but I'm ready.
I think it's best not to focus on impacting the world, but rather on simply expressing the best. It will work eventually.
The magnet is always operating. And we've found one another. We shouldn't doubt. Just continue and the magnet will draw more. Back to my original theory of concentric circles. Stay in the center and radiate.
I still think there is a wheel operating. Grace and rhythm. It will work out right. I do think it's time to put it into our own version of the operating wheel but it's surprising me as usual.
I thought I had to go forth and attack the world but instead I re-opened the cave and am considering my usual MO. Calm, slow, magnetic, unworried, and unafraid. Maybe even not frightfully exciting!
One thing that fascinates me to no end is how intimate our conversations are here as if we were alone untroubled by the world, and yet, someone is joining us. We know not. I am intrigued.
A new dimension of relationship.
Stay in the center and radiate.
ja, the heart chakra, the heart is the bridge between, the place where the soul can finally enter the manifest body and be perceived.
I know some who yearn for that higher love yet cannot give up the mental, emotional love, the romance the greed. They do not see the other in themselves nor themselves in others. The desire is getting mighty acute. I have been wondering if this is not what a lot of the fear is about. The individual feels fear yet cannot place the reason. Surrender? Not a chance when we have terrorists afoot.

not secret, we too often make intimate secret. This is more like poetry or art -sanctuary. Certain styles are more of the soul.
My ex cop friend was a homicide detective. Somewhere after he left the force compassion filled the space that was the warrior. Recently we spoke together of the great sadness we feel for the perpetrator of such acts. The desire to make things "right" was always there but it has been replaced by sculpture and birding now and just what you said earlier stripping out what does not align. Taking the wisdom of death and horror and becoming a creative part of the community.
taking the room into the bigger room such a novel idea.
night, my friend.
I couldn't post for a sec!!
Good night, St.B. So good to be together.
The post that got lost...
What a wonderful conversion of force in your friend. Another one I will meet. He walked away from violence and he really knows. The circle will grow.
