    Carmody is right. But...It wouldn't make me uncomfortable Cal I know very well the challenges I've had to overcome. Very deeply wounded, very abusive home life, lots of mental insanity in my early life, ess , ego-tism, destruction, vengefulness, disconnected from reality, hyper critical , perfectionst, lost in idealism, withdrawn, aloof. I've shared a lot of those personal experiences with the internal struggle with people. I've had people get in a wad for sharing those experienes and I have people who think I don't share that sort of information because it makes me uncomfortable.

    It causes conflict. Everyone wants to hear about it and no one wants to hear about it.

    And that's great that my chart shows all those challenges but when that chart doesn't support the notion that I'm mean, warlike, tough love., and a Neptuna ..what will we do then?

    I put up my chart (data) for all to see.

    Or is that a one way mirror???
    9 you were one of my first "friends" here ... and I don't mean that in respect to a mouse click.

    Tough love ... this is *me* trying to remind you that I do, in fact, love you.

    Hey I have fights on (rare) occasion with my wife. You (I think) said you were divorced? I love my wife more than ever. You and I as friends can certainly have disagreements and still respect each other. You don't need to "reveal" your chart if it makes you uncomfortable. For astrologers (me only a hobbiest) it helps to understand people. As Carmody suggests not a good idea to plop it out in public as there are some who will take advantage of it.

    Not me ... not the village.

    You are most welcome here provided we all share the peace and love of the village.

    Not hard to understand. Doesn't take 5000 word post to convey.

    Right???

    Don't usually do this...
    but this one speaks to my heart and bringing it here and now through my heart : )



    Complexity Shock: Cresting with the Wave

    The shift into release language in March is unlike our previously discerned 'tipping point' of 9/11/2001. In that instance the data forecast a planetary change that would alter life thereafter, but there were no signs of any discontinuity. In the forecast of the 9/11/2001 incident there were accretion patterns that put us (planetary humanity) back into building tension language a mere 3 days after the [entrenched elite] had staged their attack on the [populace] of earth. In the case of the March 2012 shift into release language, there is not a 'return' to building tension language. From the accretion patterns, it does not look as though 'business as usual' persists past March 10th.

    Within the Matterium, all is directed toward the production of ever increasing complexity. This conclusion can be logically derived from the understanding of the nature of the pulse/pause that is the core of the continual creation model. It started as one pulse racing across a self-defined, self-enclosing 'space', to bounce off it's self-created walls and return to collide with itself repetitiously, endlessly creating ever more complex patterns of collisions. Each pause wipes it all out that it may be recreated again so fast that you miss that part of reality entirely. With each recreation at the rate of 22 trillion times a second, the level of complexity compounds itself yet again. This is the nature of matterium, and thus provides, as Bucky would have it, 'the general case extractum' from which we form the 'knowledge' that 'universe (and all who sail in her) is striving for greater and greater complexity'. Here on earth (as Terrance McKenna sus'd out, 'humans are the pinnacle of the complexification process that is universe'.

    We, those voyagers in the matterium, will soon reach a point where the universe propelled complexification becomes 'observable'. Note this word. Likely we will also have [visibility] of this within the msm (lying mainstream f**ktards pretending to be journalists – Matt Taibi and his ilk excepted, with respect), but the aware observer will be swimming in the shockwave of the ever new now long before the msm can muster the coherent thoughts necessary to describe the contexts of the emerging reality around them.

    It is our understanding that the 'complexification wave' will be observable in March of 2012 as we top the building tension language. Now, noting how universe manifests, it continually produces surprise. In fact, the expression of the complex of emotions that is 'surprise' is likely a very good indicator that the human has just encountered 'new complexity'. Having observed the 'surprise factor' component to how universe chooses to manifest, it is unlikely that we can, in any meaningful way, imagine the experience of cresting with the complexification wave.

    As surfers or sailors we may think we have a 'body clue' to what is coming , but that is likely ego led presumption as this is neither wind nor water which are bound, but rather it is the underlying complexification of universe that starts a never ending crest. Once we are in the froth of it, we will all 'know', and all prior to that is observation, speculation or deduction. Or mis-direction...yes, 'they' will still be trying their **** right up to the crest.

    What is palpable is that we (terrestrial humanity) are close to this upcoming experience.

    You feel it now.

    You have felt it coming for some time.

    It, that feeling crawling up your shadow, is the shockwave of the future as complexification collides with itself to produce the manifestation of the infinity wave.

    Come in peace.

    Aside from me and my 5 libra slant ... no one here is kicking you in the butt.

    Well ... at least those only taking into account what happens here in this forum and not others.

    The Pisces victim role is "new" for you here. I won't discount it or in any way take away from your story.

    We are all one (one shape or form).

    There is no way I or anyone could walk through what your past experiences have brought. If it, in fact, has brought you into a space of higher learning then we can all accept and appreciate that.

    Please remember and respect that when you come from a voice of experience and knowledge ... we all have free will and (rightfully or not) have room to offer up other voices as well. No judgement or suggestion of right or wrong. Free will.

    In your loss of respect for "love and light" (and I can understand certain aspects of that) ... do you not still recognize free will???

    Eagle9...All charts are mirrors of a reality we are in the process of creating.
    Each sign, each house, each planet can have a positive and a negative application.
    You yourself know that.
    Hence Pisces at it's lowest, densest, is drugs, alcohol, insanity, confusion, escapism.
    In the middle it is disciplined creativity, that can build heaven on earth.
    At it's highest it is divine channeling...the kind of revelation that transforms masses of people with it's sheer presence in a 3 D body...God incarnate.

    Aries at it's lowest is impatience, bloodshed, rage war for the fun of it.
    Aries in the middle is Activity leading to innovation, pioneer spirit discovering new territories.
    At it's highest it is a guardian shield of bravery that uses it's power with angelic authority.
    So everything has to be seen in this graduated scale manner...then there are no misunderstandings.

    But..why did you keep the pig part and get rid of the flying part?

    It would be fun to have a flying man in the house...if they were house trained.

    Wait scratch the idea...if you can't put the toilet seat down on while standing chances are flying around will not make it easier for you.????

    i was completely willing to let it all go 9eagle, but then you accused us all of being reincarnated unicorns, and...well...that's just unforgivable.
    I must apologize on behalf of 9eagle9 as she has this tendency to exaggerate.
    Pisces is in part ruled by Jupiter and Jupiter is an OTT gas giant.
    Nothing but hot air.

    Most men are NOT reincarnated unicorns, most men were termites, or worker ants in their past lives.
    Their work patterns persit to this day.

    But I must say, of all the men I have met, those who were unicorns in a past life were the sweetest souls.
    i must say i thought she was saying that with tongue firmly in cheek, but apparently not. a unicorn? well, there are worse things one could have derived from, termites for example(i will not ask you if you are being sarcastic because i don't think i want to know the answer to that)

    What if the answer is no?
    I can't remember the last time I was being sarcastic, although I had plenty of that to dish out when I was younger.
    All gender comments from me are based on strictly scientific observations backed up by statistics.

    watch out, i may challenge you to provide said scientific evidence ulli!

    from my vast research, and this is simply indisputable, men come from flying pigs. save yourself the internet search, as i've provided you with my unequivocal data right in this very post:

    IinMany,

    I feel your excitement. But for sure I want you to succeed which often means listening to people who have been there. Especially about a yard dog. Does this place have acres? If so how many? How close is your nearest neighbor? How close is the nearest gas station and the nearest grocery store--major? Does it have out buildings? If so what kind? What kind of fencing, which in the country can be very important? Are you changing lifestyles or only the type of housing and neighborhood?

    If you want to continue this conversation with me, you need to answer these questions so I have a clear picture of what you have in mind.

    Whether or not we continue, I wish you much happiness and better vibes there.

    Love, Jai
    Beware the axis of sanctimony.

    Here and Now... Went to see a new place yesterday. It feels right, and is happening quite smoothly. Taking the hint & going with it. The countryside scenery is breathtaking for me, and hopefully the wide open space will allow me to breathe. I will have fruit trees, pears and apples, so I will want to learn everything I can about helping them to produce yummies without hurting any critters. The lady that is selling the place says in 5 years she has only seen 2 snakes! She also said we need a yard dog to chase off the raccoons and possums. After I stop laughing, I ponder the term "yard dog." Having a bit of trouble with that one lol. I'm such a sucker that I couldn't leave a dog outside 24/7...especially when the temps range from about 25F-100F depending on the season. And, though I'm a softie, I could not imagine letting a dog in the house after he's been out frolicking all day...mud & rolling around in poo comes to mind. A dog in the house is awesome, so loving...but I have to get one that doesn't shed and that usually rules out the dogs whose bark would scare off mother nature herself lol. More pondering on this one...And the lady also reports that the cat(s) we saw (and smelled...and that made my eyes swell up and tears run down my face) are not hers exactly. They adopted her. New visualization: I see the woman being so attached that she cannot bear to leave it/them behind!!!!!

    This will be a slice of heaven for me. After second guessing myself ridiculously, I remembered that if this doesn't work out...um, hello...I'll deal with it then. And, for heaven's sake, my feet will not be buried in concrete and the commitment to stay there not written in blood. Talked to a few of the townsfolk, helped me recall some of my earlier experiences in small towns. Boy, things sure are gonna change lol. I'm so excited I want to go pack now.

    Much Love,
    I envy you. I love packing. I love measuring a new place to see where I'm going to put the furniture.
    I have moved so many times I remember the exact dimensions of each one of my pieces.
    Use Google Sketchup now to plan how things are going to be placed so there is no problem when the movers come.
    I become like a circus director.

    Is there a garage for the dogs, when the climate goes too extreme?

    Aw, man, you want me to talk more about where I'm going? MUAHHHHAHAHAHAHA. Well, okay, if you insist.

    It's 3 1/2 acres, fenced on all but the street sides. Has a pond, fruit trees, pine trees, big trees that I will have to figure out...oak? The lady says there were grapes, but doesn't know whether they made it through the drought. There is smaller intimate space with a little fountain thingy & perfect for a private little oasis/flowers! Already has a bench swing. The land is sort of sectioned with a couple of fences we will remove...enough room for a horse but we will opt for the boarding up the road and feeding & loving on the 3 curious & spunky mares next door that come to our fence. Beautiful. Bordering one side & the back is a ranch, a small one. Bordering the other side is a home on prob about 3 acres as well. Blacktop road. Across the street is a house with more like maybe 10 acres. Beyond that, down the road, are big chunks of land, privately owned, prob 100 acres a piece. The cats keep away the mice & rats & keep the snake population down. The dogs keep away the other 4 legged critters. Of course, the rats & mice probably keep away the spiders...

    We need a MAJOR lifestyle change. My husband will stay here and work, a few more years until retirement for him, but it will be an awesome retreat for him!!!! It's only about an hour and a half, but since it is towards Arkansas it is freaking beautiful...pine trees and HILLS! Texas has hills! (lol)

    We are deciding between a greenhouse and an in-ground garden for our fresh stuff... There are several out buildings. One is a typical storage shed, metal with windows. Another looks more like a home-made wooden structure with an extended roof...she used it for rabbits. A third is...kind of like a metal storage shed, but only steps from the house. Looks like she insulated it but didn't get to the sheetrock. This will make an awesome music room, or a quiet place for ceramics and crystals....more related to the home than the yard.

    We are also planning to dig a cellar...just in case.

    Back to the lifestyle. If I were not the least familiar with what I'm getting into, I would not know how scared I should be lol. I have lived in small podunk towns, and in the city. Never owned horses, but have been around them quite a bit. Used to own a shop on a small town main street, and I enjoyed the heck out of it, but not going for that this time. I will be leaving behind the pressures...the schools are like pressure cookers with no release valve here, going out of the house means driving on a 6-8 lane highway here, leaving behind the separateness of the "neighbors" who live 10 feet away but don't know what friendly is to save their lives. Leaving behind the stolen bicycles, stolen carseat off the front porch, but moving towards teens who drink & smoke meth at bonfires in the woods (probably). Leaving behind anonymity in favor of privacy, but the privacy is a paradox...I will have space, but everybody will know my business.

    Town, with 1 elem school, 1 mid school, and 1 high sch, is about 10 minutes away ... up the main road lol. There is an actual grocery store...leaving behind Hel-Mart. That means I'm leaving behind conveniences, too. That's okay with me. I will give up 25 rolls of toilet paper for $2 (no, not really) in favor of listening to crickets at night.

    Does that help? Because if not, you just let me know!

    Much Love,

    p.s. - just read about Cancerians living on water We are no more than 15 minutes away from 3 different lakes

    p.s.p.s. - about the dogs...there is a garage, a dog run, and a dog house. But I still don't think I could do it.

    LOL!

    a few of us can still fly around....astrally anyway. does that count?

    wait a second, do termites have wings???

    Found this on the web...then added my comments to emphasize my earlier point:

    Do termites have wings? They do at first, until they find a nice nest. Then they shed their wings....... Just like young men.

    Termites have been around since the time of the dinosaurs!...... So they were here first...

    Termite colonies eat non-stop, 24 hours a day, seven days a week!....just like most men...

    Termites cause up to $2 billion in damage per year! .........A bit less than men, but obviously being a termite gave men the training.

    All Termites are social insects and raise their young as a group......Just like men, who put their young into to military, or cubicles with a computer and a desk.

    The total weight of all of the termites in the world is more than the weight of all the humans in the world.....that one I find hard to believe....
