Full Moon in Cancer 1/17/22

The full-moon-moment will arrive on January 17, 2022, at 23:48 UTC. In North American and U.S. time zones, that translates to: January 17, at 7:48 p.m. Atlantic Standard Time (AST), 6:48 p.m. Eastern Standard Time (EST), 5:48 p.m. Central Standard Time (CST), 4:48 p.m. Mountain Standard Time (MST), 3:48 a.m

With the Full Moon in Cancer at 4:48p MST / 6:48 EST / 23:48 UTC it is suggested to intuitively and without words steep in Your Inner Home. Respect that the Sun opposes the Moon at 4:48p MST so they have both come to the table with a clear view of one another. Also, respect the Silence of the Moon as it also goes Void of Course at 4:48p MST for approx 4 hours to emerge in Leo at 9:03 just after having come out of its Void of Course to go Direct again.

All in all, I suggest to dwell with your Full Moon potential in the brightness of your identity in things you can touch and feel with the Sun for those 4 Void of Course hours. Find something you love to simply keep in mind, internally and externally hold. A totem. A talisman. Then, as the Moon goes Direct, layer in the brightness of Leo identity qualities. As the Moon goes Direct, dial in and magically mix the Moon wave intuitive and deep knowings of your dreams together with the brightness of your Inner Home. Together, then flow them out into your external reality.

Simply live The Moon for the 4 VoC hours. This Full Moon is best to be prepared, and wonderfully pause in that 4-hour Psychic Synapse passage of the Moon’s VoC Silence. May this Silence place you not in holding or holding back. May this Silence be the focused and calmly intense power that is patience. May this Silence be a living meditation countdown to releasing your Moon Blessings into the world from that focused power within. Don’t be patient. Don’t count down. Just be. Find something quiet and enjoyable to do. Knotting. Drawing. Painting. Activities during the 4-hour Void of Course Moon without words would seem to be the most auspicious.

Since the Moon is Full at 4:48p MST at 27-degrees 51-minutes, look at your own Natal Chart for Astro bodies between 24 degrees and 29 degrees. How can you pour these Natal qualities into the Astro Prep of your magical mix?

How can you pour the above qualities and additional ones or fewer that resonate with you into the Astro Prep of your magical mix today? How can you further orchestrate your own momentum by pouring in your timing in respectful synchromesh of each piece’s most natural momentum today?

Big picture notion of all of the above?

SI: 12/12 Serendipity Itinerary

SI: 12/12 Serendipity Itinerary

Welcome to Your December 12th, 2020 SI

Here is the Moon’s itinerary through the weekend and next week to color and texture and magnetize the waves of your travels, your meditations out into action. May the Moon ebb and flow the tide of your serendipity, AND may you surf back and forth over liminal horizons as you choose to your liking:

The Moon was Direct in Scorpio on Friday 12/11 as the weekend began. It will pass into a brief dip through its Void of Course Astro Sign Synapse Portal this evening, 12/12, at 8:58p to emerge Direct at 9:39p in Sagittarius. The Moon will travel Direct in Sag through the weekend to go Void of Course Monday, 12/14, at 11:17a. It will emerge Direct in Capricorn on 12/14 at 10:35p in Aquarius. Tuesday and Wednesday the Moon will remain Direct In Aquarius and dive into the Cusp-Synapse Void of Course at 12:34a on Thursday, 12/17. This will be another quick Void of Course Moon as it will go Direct in Aquarius on 12/17 at 1:27a which will bring us to next Friday’s Serendipity Itinerary.

A note on the Coniunctio and Coniunctionis + Some Big-Time Planetary Interests for You to Factor Into Your Travels, Your Actions

Also, of note is that Neptune Stationed Direct on Monday, 11/30. And, Jupiter and Saturn will go Conjunct on 12/21 with Pluto and Pallas~Athena (Minerva) in the conjunction mix. Quite a beautiful Mystereum Coniunctionis grouping for study and to Marshall your forces. Note that to simplify the Latin conjunction or coniunctionis, simply thank and feel into conjunction. Latin simply doesn’t have a j to use for spelling. So, coniunctionis and coniunctio for the most part simply = state of conjunction and/or conjunct. Add the mystery, and therein is provided a simple expression of the Mystery of the Opposites within each of us that function as Self. Albeit, it is a little overgeneralized, though not to the pejorative point of being simplistic.

* Note: All times given are EST In the USA. Here is a convenient Time Zone Converter, which is a wonderful tool to be familiar with and more easily schedule your international client sessions.

Void of Course Moon

Void of Course is a bit like a mini-Mercury Rx, though instead of the magnetic drag of Mercury appearing to slow, which advises us to downshift, the opposite happens when the Moon goes Void of Course. Rather than drag, there is a slip, a letting go of the Astro Sign connection to disappear across the synapse of the cusp between signs.

I feel the Void of Course period, the Cusp Crossing makes for a wonderful liminal horizon to surf with a foot on both sides, though I mark it in my schedule to not start new projects during it. When I do, their effectiveness invariably slips away like they didn’t even exist, or they are driving on ice with bald tires.

The Void of Course Moon period carries a sense of float where you may viscerally feel Almost weightless. It’s easy to miss unless you intently feel-listen as it is typically short, several hours to a day. It is as if the impact of projects that start during the Void are all but zeroed out by the MIA Void Moon Lunation Wave Formers.

For all intents and purposes it may feel like a car disengaged by being put in neutral, or when the clutched is step-tapped in and not released. A pause of sorts.

A more fun And less wordy waffle way to think about Void of Course is to visualize the Moon as it goes Void as those fun and magical, black portal openings in the movie Time Bandits. One minute it’s there and engaged, the next, HEY! Where’d it GO?!! Well, it went somewhere. Reasons are often unreasonable, and a healthy comfortability with the not-knowing allows your surrender to keep the open door welcome on the other side free and clear of obstruction.

During the VoC Moon

I advise to focus on the flow and structure of existing projects you have in the works. We all kind of Evil Knievel float through the air with the Moon temporarily disconnected… though without the experience of all the broken bones when we land on the other side. Inspect your expectations to assure you are not assuming connections that are actually temporarily not in touch with one another in the least.

Once we land on the ramp on the other side of the Astro cusp to emerge in the next Astro sign as the Moon goes Direct… then, refreshed, re-engage the Past-Future-Confluence of the perpetual present anew.

Here Are 3 Memes For Ideas to Engage Surrender and Engage Void of Course Enactment Guidance

Laughter is the shortest distance between people. ~ Victor Borge

You are not what you say you are going to do. You are what you do. ~ C.G. Jung

It’s Sag Season.

Ever think Sag’s are hard to hold, or that they have a fear of commitment as they need so much running room? Hmmm. Ever thought what it’s like to be A Sag? To be both The Beast & The Divine at the same time? Feel into that as an empathy thought. Feel into that not in your way, though as theirs. Now, the mode of the horse is to charge, and like in the evolved Tarot Knights, that force is saddled, and harnessed like 4 elemental Chariots. Then, there’s Sag. May I suggest not to try to saddle a Mustang? Think about it this way. They needn’t even saddle themselves. As the Centaur, half person, half horse, their Divinity sacrally and naturally seats right into their Beast. Talk about a Soul seating into the Heart. No saddle required. How can you meditate on your natural composition in Empathic Silence with that in mine taken to heart? Here’s an image to steep in and meditate this… or, go the Sag way and Nah, I’ve got my own rawkin’ way. Go You!

My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art.

SI: 12/4 Serendipity Itinerary

SI: 12/4 Serendipity Itinerary

Welcome to Your December 4th, 2020 SI

Here is the Moon’s itinerary through the weekend and next week to color and texture and magnetize the waves of your travels, your meditations out into action:

The Moon went Direct in Cancer on Monday 12/1 at 10:33p. It passed into a brief dip through its Void of Course Astro Sign Synapse Portal this morning, Friday 12/4, at 5:29, to emerge Direct in Leo at 7:53a today.

The Moon will continue Direct in Leo until tomorrow, 12/5 at 5:28p when it goes VoC and emerge Direct in Virgo Sunday, 12/6, at 2:46p. So, be on your toes and with a strong but fluid stance as there will be a slalom course of sorts with many Moon energies today and through the weekend.

The Moon will travel Direct in Virgo until Tuesday, 12/8, at 5:28p when it enters its VoC again to emerge Direct on Tuesday, 12/8, at 7:01p in Libra. Void again Friday, 12/10, at 7:56p to emerge Direct on 12/10 at 8:50p in Scorpio which will then put us at your next week’s Friday Serendipity Itinerary.

A note on the Coniunctio and Coniunctionis + Some Big-Time Planetary Interests for You to Factor Into Your Travels, Your Actions

Also, of note is that Neptune Stationed Direct on Monday, 11/30. And, Jupiter and Saturn will go Conjunct on 12/21 with Pluto and Pallas~Athena (Minerva) in the conjunction mix. Quite a beautiful Mystereum Coniunctionis grouping for study and to Marshall your forces. Note that to simplify the Latin conjunction or coniunctionis, simply thank and feel into conjunction. Latin simply doesn’t have a j to use for spelling. So, coniunctionis and coniunctio for the most part simply = state of conjunction and/or conjunct. Add the mystery, and therein is provided a simple expression of the Mystery of the Opposites within each of us that function as Self. Albeit, it is a little overgeneralized, though not to the pejorative point of being simplistic.

Void of Course Moon

Void of Course is a bit like a mini-Mercury Rx, though instead of the magnetic drag of Mercury appearing to slow, which advises us to downshift, the opposite happens when the Moon goes Void of Course. Rather than drag, there is a slip, a letting go of the Astro Sign connection to disappear across the synapse of the cusp between signs.

I feel the Void of Course period, the Cusp Crossing makes for a wonderful liminal horizon to surf with a foot on both sides, though I mark it in my schedule to not start new projects during it. When I do, their effectiveness invariably slips away like they didn’t even exist, or they are driving on ice with bald tires.

The Void of Course Moon period carries a sense of float where you may viscerally feel Almost weightless. It’s easy to miss unless you intently feel-listen as it is typically short, several hours to a day. It is as if the impact of projects that start during the Void are all but zeroed out by the MIA Void Moon Lunation Wave Formers.

For all intents and purposes it may feel like a car disengaged by being put in neutral, or when the clutched is step-tapped in and not released. A pause of sorts.

During intense work, creative or otherwise, it may also feel like running up fast in 6th gear only to pass 150mph and discover your car has a US-required speed limiter. The fuel injectors cut out, and the 1st time this happens it felt like OH SHIT, I’m floating barely touching the ground at 150 and only in a 4-cylinder…. HOLY SHIT WTF THIS ISN’T GOOD. A rising sense of terror emerges. You grip the wheel harder. You come off the gas and judiciously start to get into the brakes to lightly step-tap yourself back down until the fuel injectors wake back up. There’s no diving into brakes without the counterbalance of the power that got you there in the Justice of an experience like this.

Yes, there’s a metaphor for life in that. The sudden loss of ALL power at that speed is hellishly un-nerving… and, even more so the 2nd time when you know it’s going to happen. No, 3rd time for me, though. My stubbornness has its own set of powerful limits, its own place of Void of Course. Baseball came to mind, and I decided I would rather make my presentation in Vail than achieve Strike 3 You’re Out. From Denver, it’s typically about 1 1/2 hours to Vail. Suffice it say I had some fun, though within my levels of acceptable risk as I made the trip in 47 minutes. I don’t need or want a repeat performance of that. Though, it sure is a blast to remember. Like any trauma, the feeling re-surfaces fresh and ready to engage. Now, I simply steep a bit with a wry smile and bright eyes as I think, Now, how cool was THAT?!!

Trauma, though directly linked to the time it occurs carries a timeless quality. It tucks away deep inside if not directly addressed wise in time as it occurs. And, when we are triggered, it emerges as fresh as it was when it was born into the psyche. That’s what lives within the phrase, ‘Trauma is always fresh.’ One goal I suggest is to Train yourself to catch the inner flash when trauma is triggered, say ‘Thank you. Hold on a sec,’ as you embrace it within without allowing it to merge with the trigger, whatever triggered it, and as you acclimate proceed back into your conversation. Most often you can revisit it on your own time unless you are with a good friend, at which point I suggest to turn the conversation back in upon the trauma to share it and potentially receive a fresh perspective from them that may help bring it to fully re-surface to empathically listen to towards receiving its message so that it can integrate by re-homing in its proper home in your body. A cascade of ablution Tingles is a common way the integration presents. Note where it went in your body. Smile, and welcome it with thanks. ~ Jordan Hoggard

A more fun And less wordy waffle way to think about Void of Course is to visualize the Moon as it goes Void as those fun and magical, black portal openings in the movie Time Bandits. One minute it’s there and engaged, the next, HEY! Where’d it GO?!! Well, it went somewhere. Reasons are often unreasonable, and a healthy comfortability with the not-knowing allows your surrender to keep the open door welcome on the other side free and clear of obstruction.

During the VoC Moon

I advise to focus on the flow and structure of existing projects you have in the works. We all kind of Evil Knievel float through the air with the Moon temporarily disconnected… though without the experience of all the broken bones when we land on the other side. Inspect your expectations to assure you are not assuming connections that are actually temporarily not in touch with one another in the least.

Once we land on the ramp on the other side of the Astro cusp to emerge in the next Astro sign as the Moon goes Direct… then, refreshed, re-engage the Past-Future-Confluence of the perpetual present anew.

Stop

Who 
is to
free the prisoners
when sand sleeps in the eternity of the tilted hourglass.

~ from the Prescient Remembrance: Dialogue of a Vampire poetry collection.

Once the Moon Is Direct

Once Direct we can reconnect our Inner LUNAtic in the next Astro sign and re-engage the creative gearbox. Alternately, if you need something to have the UTMOST discretion or be secret, like planning a surprise Birthday Party, by all means DO start during the Moon’s Void period. It might contribute to the success of the stealth to keep the surprise a surprise. Yes, there are certainly shady ways to apply that, too, though that’s really never been in my Wheelhouse except for in martial arts applications when I explore the power of Silence in motion through whole-body awareness Of the consequence of my feet and toe groundgrabber fingers when I move forward toe-to-heel Instead of the norm of heel to toe when walking or running. In a way the reverse, energetic spin of the motion more clearly generates an awareness of the consequences of actions AS they happen. CRACK goes a twig, and OOPS. Restart.

Take the depth and directness of the clean and stealthy Nothingness of the long Void of Course energy into your weekend. I suggest to team up with surrender rather than hold on. Also, It’s not advised to get caught revving and have the tachometer up to the redline warming things up. You might accidentally sidestep the clutch if your foot slips. Plus, the redline and revving noise just disturbs the Silence, is more than a bit vexatious to the Spirit.

It’s going to be intense, intensely calm. Rather than let down and go amoebic and sloppy in formlessness, there is a lesson in simple Being holding itself together naturally without the crutch of form. Rather than worry or anxiety about falls, instead dial in your focus to your balance of intense things. In one sense it reminds me of the student telling the Buddhist Master they dreamed of falling and falling and getting more and more unsettled. The Master says, Dream that again tonight. This time have a deep knowing that there is no ground. Disengage control. Embrace the experience. Fall farther.

The not-things can get us in trouble all too easily. Personally, I ignore not-things for the most part to more fully focus on the workability so I Don’t waste trouble.

I made a diamond out of my misfortune. ~ Jodorowski’s Chariot speaking

It takes intense heat and pressures to make a diamond. Maybe at the base of infinity within, the heavy darkness get more and more dense, form a weather pattern of singularities that then squeeze density past its Point of Flexure to POOF pop out diamonds that are ejected to the surface.

The flexural strength is stress at failure in bending. It is equal or slightly larger than the failure stress in tension.

During the Void of Course

Focus on established priorities and established launches… even if its simply a walk in the park where you may vividly see and experience something you’ve not seen before. You know? That intensity of ablution tingles when your eyes light up when you discover something that moves you in a cool way.

How can you even up your keel, so that wind the big wind comes you shoot right out in the direction you intended… well, or at least in the range of that direction. There may be some torque that exceeds your grip at first. You;re the driver, though. Dial in to hang in and ride the initial squirrelly movements as your momentum sticks to engage forward movement in big ways.

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Dec 4th, 2020

XI Justice ~ II High Priestess (or XI Strength ~ II High Priestess if that’s the way you roll)

Excellent Birth Cards to surf the Is-what-it-is (Justice) as you give form to the formless (High Priestess) as you bring ideas forth as the heart and impetus to fuel your actions. How can you utilize these energies with the Moon and the other characters inhabiting your Astro Chart this weekend and through the month?

Your naturally enlightened voice from within is an ally than can serve to bring these brightly out in the open as you continually as you continually integrate your Shadow Parts that live and till the garden of your Place of Creation. How can you engage to enact Your Life, Your Way to dance together WITH Shadow as integrated allies contribute together in harmony being at ease with chaos to inner-communally drive your life force?

One must have a chaos in the heart to birth a dancing star. ~ My Friend Fred (Friedrich Nietzche)

A crucial component of these three Archetypes is that they engage inner contents and the unconscious as useful and factual realities. Psychic and intuitive and imaginative and unconscious contents simply provide more facts from within to sacredly couple with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives within yourself you can discover when you do. Have a hard time trusting your intuition? Heck, Mark Twain may have said it best with, Of course truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense.

How can you utilize the concept of Reasons Are Unreasonable as you implement the Psychopracticality of your inner contents as useful facts?

This Week

It’s a #2 day today, so enjoy the:

Mystereum Tarot Moment Two of Swords

1 min 14 sec

Mystereum Tarot Moment Two of Pentacles

1 min 01 sec

Mystereum Tarot and The Twos ~ Twos To Pair

2 min 24 sec

With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation process while you enact a disciplined approach to reverently honor the continual focus of your clarity? Does that question build a sanctuary to enter and explore your sacred Self?

Notice if you begin to feel depletion. If you do, it is often either from mis-spent efforts, slippage, or its time to rest and refuel. Running on fumes will actually expend more energy and tire you out more than running with a full tank.

And maybe think about Mindfulness to help you out. I do not feel that Mindfulness is to empty us out of negative inner influences. More so, that it is for us to face and engage and become besties with our beasties. Danger? Potentially? Sure, sometimes, like life itself. Though, think about it this way. If they harm me, they harm their home. So, I let their storms rage inside when they present themselves. And, as their storm subsides robustly and empathically witnessed by me in reverence Silence, I ask, What is your message?

Once a storm has spent itself, it has often shed itself of all the extraneous marble block parts like Michelangelo liberating David. Then, they can integrate, you might feel a cascade of ablution tingles as they nestle back into wherever their trauma was living in your body as they bring more of You to You with their power as experiential enhancements born of facing your traumas. Or, they don’t integrate, in which case you let them go as if vanished forever, … or, they sidle up right beside you and behind you as another Chthonic Numinosity Light~Shadow Ally of Self. Can’t have too many of those.

Someone asked me recently how long PTSD lasts. A lifetime, was my response. Color that with this. Though it lasts a lifetime, it lasts a lifetime in its influence as you transform it over time from the lead of raw experience to the gold that flows up from within of wisdom magnetized and born of the experience as you process it. From trauma or influence to treasure. After you face your fears and traumas, work with them. With a Professional is good. They can transform to release and renew you. So, the PTSD part doesn’t really last a lifetime. The PTSD is a point of origin. Its ever-evolving influence as you face and engage and use it is actually what lasts a lifetime.

How can you invest in yourself today? How can you invest in yourself this week? What actions will you take as your initial Self-investment? How can you bank the lead to draw interest as it transforms into more Self-born Inner Inheritances?

I resonate with Thich Nhat Hanh‘s

We do not practice Mindfulness to rid us of anger. We practice Mindfulness to take good care of it. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh.

My Friend Fred

I resonate with how he aligns there.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words and music as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another or out to the world, will you allow the words and music to be yours as if spoken and emanated directly from you and your internal community? As if they are a play about a journey produced by you about you, as you most likely know yourself better than anyone else.

SVRCINA ~ Astronomical

The Birthday Massacre ~ Run

The Birthday Massacre ~ Walking With Strangers (full album)

Pandora on my Sonos played them in that You Might Like way twice last weekend. I saw it like it magnified the 2nd time, an I listened to the message, listened to them again… YES!, is a word, and kinda turned into a another one-word complete sentence verb. Love it when substance embeds in action! Enjoy!

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

Dr. Jean Raffa ~ Think Psychologically. Live Spiritually. A former television producer and college professor, Dr. Raffa changed directions in midlife to discover and write about her passions.

Trini Lind ~ Paths of the Spirit. Create a path of Light with your Life. Wonderful perspective. Deceptively simple drawings that I find magically evocative. No one trick pony here.

House of Ari. Sharing a personal exploration of gender in Sweden. Up front and honest and insightful as the experience and process of this self-induced rite of passage unfolds. I respect when people swim in their own crucible to discern and come to a more resonant relationship with themselves. It can be swimming in magma at times, though isn’t that how crystals and geodes are made? Clarity and creativity and actionable feel often come out of strong Soul Gardening such as Ari’s. I look forward to where this exploration leads.

Scott Spillman ~ The Point Magazine. New article, Charismatic Models.(My words follow, these are not Scott’s or the Magazine’s) I loathe politics as the great irony of our time, maybe any time when people who are not personally sovereign can be ruled simply by the sniff of a suggestion. This, is not that.

Joy Vernon ~ Completely Joyous. Tarot & Reiki. Bookmarked for this week as there’s an ICANN issue pending. I’ve been there.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Helix and DNA strands anyone? Our world and solar system itself in its orbit is one of the life-giving shapes within us that contributes to our identity. Know Thyself and You Will Know the Universe is Metaphorical, though more so LITERAL, too!

SI: 11/20 Serendipity Itinerary

SI: 11/20 Serendipity Itinerary

Welcome to Your November 20th, 2020 SI. The Moon move from Aquarius today, Friday 11/20 at 7:49p, as it passes through the Void of Course Astro Sign Synapse Portal. It will emerge Direct on the other side of the cusp between signs in Pisces tomorrow, 11/21 at 11:06p. A day+ is a relatively long Void of Course relative to the Moon’s typical 3 – 6 hour Voids. Your dreams may go deeper during this period of Moon Surrender as I sometimes call it. It surrenders its engagement to naturally enact a rest and relief to be fresh and wholly engage the next sign.

After 11:06p on 11/21 the Moon will continue Direct as it journeys through Pisces, to then dive back under through the Void of Course Portal at 5:44a on Tuesday, 11/24. It will emerge Direct again in Aries on 11/24 at 10:05a. Into the Void Portal again Thursday, 11/26, at 6:46p, and back out of the Void Portal 11/26 at 10:43P Direct in Taurus… and then, we’ll continue the trek with next week’s Serendipity Itineraries, SI for short.

* Note: All times given are EST In the USA. Here is a convenient Time Zone Converter, which is a wonderful tool to be familiar with and more easily schedule your international client sessions.

Void of Course Moon

Void of Course is a bit like a mini-Mercury Rx, though instead of the magnetic drag of Mercury appearing to slow, which advises us to downshift, the opposite happens when the Moon goes Void of Course. Rather than drag, there is a slip, a letting go of the Astro Sign connection to disappear across the synapse of the cusp between signs.

I feel the Void of Course period, the Cusp Crossing makes for a wonderful liminal horizon to surf with a foot on both sides, though I mark it in my schedule to not start new projects during it. When I do, their effectiveness invariably slips away like they didn’t even exist, or they are driving on ice with bald tires.

The Void of Course Moon period carries a sense of float where you may viscerally feel Almost weightless. It’s easy to miss unless you intently feel-listen as it is typically short, several hours to a day. It is as if the impact of projects that start during the Void are all but zeroed out by the MIA Void Moon Lunation Wave Formers.

For all intents and purposes it may feel like a car disengaged by being put in neutral, or when the clutched is step-tapped in and not released. A pause of sorts.

During intense work, creative or otherwise, it may also feel like running up fast in 6th gear only to pass 150mph and discover your car has a US-required speed limiter. The fuel injectors cut out, and the 1st time this happens it felt like OH SHIT, I’m floating barely touching the ground at 150 and only in a 4-cylinder…. HOLY SHIT WTF THIS ISN’T GOOD. A rising sense of terror emerges. You grip the wheel harder. You come off the gas and judiciously start to get into the brakes to lightly step-tap yourself back down until the fuel injectors wake back up. There’s no diving into brakes without the counterbalance of the power that got you there in the Justice of an experience like this.

Yes, there’s a metaphor for life in that. The sudden loss of ALL power at that speed is hellishly un-nerving… and, even more so the 2nd time when you know it’s going to happen. No, 3rd time for me, though. My stubbornness has its own set of powerful limits, its own place of Void of Course. Baseball came to mind, and I decided I would rather make my presentation in Vail than achieve Strike 3 You’re Out. From Denver, it’s typically about 1 1/2 hours to Vail. Suffice it say I had some fun, though within my levels of acceptable risk as I made the trip in 47 minutes. I don’t need or want a repeat performance of that. Though, it sure is a blast to remember. Like any trauma, the feeling re-surfaces fresh and ready to engage. Now, I simply steep a bit with a wry smile and bright eyes as I think, Now, how cool was THAT?!!

Trauma, though directly linked to the time it occurs carries a timeless quality. It tucks away deep inside if not directly addressed wise in time as it occurs. And, when we are triggered, it emerges as fresh as it was when it was born into the psyche. That’s what lives within the phrase, ‘Trauma is always fresh.’ One goal I suggest is to Train yourself to catch the inner flash when trauma is triggered, say ‘Thank you. Hold on a sec,’ as you embrace it within without allowing it to merge with the trigger, whatever triggered it, and as you acclimate proceed back into your conversation. Most often you can revisit it on your own time unless you are with a good friend, at which point I suggest to turn the conversation back in upon the trauma to share it and potentially receive a fresh perspective from them that may help bring it to fully re-surface to empathically listen to towards receiving its message so that it can integrate by re-homing in its proper home in your body. A cascade of ablution Tingles is a common way the integration presents. Note where it went in your body. Smile, and welcome it with thanks. ~ Jordan Hoggard

A more fun And less wordy waffle way to think about Void of Course is to visualize the Moon as it goes Void as those fun and magical, black portal openings in the movie Time Bandits. One minute it’s there and engaged, the next, HEY! Where’d it GO?!! Well, it went somewhere. Reasons are often unreasonable, and a healthy comfortability with the not-knowing allows your surrender to keep the open door welcome on the other side free and clear of obstruction.

During the VoC Moon

I advise to focus on the flow and structure of existing projects you have in the works. We all kind of Evil Knievel float through the air with the Moon temporarily disconnected… though without the experience of all the broken bones when we land on the other side. Inspect your expectations to assure you are not assuming connections that are actually temporarily not in touch with one another in the least.

Once we land on the ramp on the other side of the Astro cusp to emerge in the next Astro sign as the Moon goes Direct… then, refreshed, re-engage the Past-Future-Confluence of the perpetual present anew.

Stop

Who 
is to
free the prisoners
when sand sleeps in the eternity of the tilted hourglass.

~ from the Prescient Remembrance: Dialogue of a Vampire poetry collection.

Once the Moon Is Direct

Once Direct we can reconnect our Inner LUNAtic in the next Astro sign and re-engage the creative gearbox. Alternately, if you need something to have the UTMOST discretion or be secret, like planning a surprise Birthday Party, by all means DO start during the Moon’s Void period. It might contribute to the success of the stealth to keep the surprise a surprise. Yes, there are certainly shady ways to apply that, too, though that’s really never been in my Wheelhouse except for in martial arts applications when I explore the power of Silence in motion through whole-body awareness Of the consequence of my feet and toe groundgrabber fingers when I move forward toe-to-heel Instead of the norm of heel to toe when walking or running. In a way the reverse, energetic spin of the motion more clearly generates an awareness of the consequences of actions AS they happen. CRACK goes a twig, and OOPS. Restart.

Take the depth and directness of the clean and stealthy Nothingness of the long Void of Course energy into your weekend. I suggest to team up with surrender rather than hold on. Also, It’s not advised to get caught revving and have the tachometer up to the redline warming things up. You might accidentally sidestep the clutch if your foot slips. Plus, the redline and revving noise just disturbs the Silence, is more than a bit vexatious to the Spirit.

It’s going to be intense, intensely calm. Rather than let down and go amoebic and sloppy in formlessness, there is a lesson in simple Being holding itself together naturally without the crutch of form. Rather than worry or anxiety about falls, instead dial in your focus to your balance of intense things. In one sense it reminds me of the student telling the Buddhist Master they dreamed of falling and falling and getting more and more unsettled. The Master says, Dream that again tonight. This time have a deep knowing that there is no ground. Disengage control. Embrace the experience. Fall farther.

The not-things can get us in trouble all too easily. Personally, I ignore not-things for the most part to more fully focus on the workability so I Don’t waste trouble.

I made a diamond out of my misfortune. ~ Jodorowski’s Chariot speaking

It takes intense heat and pressures to make a diamond. Maybe at the base of infinity within, the heavy darkness get more and more dense, form a weather pattern of singularities that then squeeze density past its Point of Flexure to POOF pop out diamonds that are ejected to the surface.

The flexural strength is stress at failure in bending. It is equal or slightly larger than the failure stress in tension.

During the Void of Course

Focus on established priorities and established launches… even if its simply a walk in the park where you may vividly see and experience something you’ve not seen before. You know? That intensity of ablution tingles when your eyes light up when you discover something that moves you in a cool way.

How can you even up your keel, so that wind the big wind comes you shoot right out in the direction you intended… well, or at least in the range of that direction. There may be some torque that exceeds your grip at first. You;re the driver, though. Dial in to hang in and ride the initial squirrelly movements as your momentum sticks to engage forward movement in big ways.

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Nov 20th, 2020

Star ~ Strength (or Star ~ Justice if that’s the way you roll)

Excellent Birth Cards to surf the celestial groove (Star) of your natural, inner animal voice (Strength) in balance with the scales of the Justice of who you really are. Can you, like a Star, brightly bring these qualities and their consequences to bear within yourself to shine and enliven your identity with a heightened clarity of focus and disciplined sense of seeing?

Your naturally enlightened voice from within is an ally than can serve to bring these brightly out in the open as you continually as you continually integrate your Shadow Parts that live and till the garden of your Place of Creation. How can you engage to enact Your Life, Your Way to dance together WITH Shadow as integrated allies contribute together in harmony being at ease with chaos to inner-communally drive your life force?

One must have a chaos in the heart to birth a dancing star. ~ My Friend Fred (Friedrich Nietzche)

A crucial component of these three Archetypes is that they engage inner contents and the unconscious as useful and factual realities. Psychic and intuitive and imaginative and unconscious contents simply provide more facts from within to sacredly couple with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives within yourself you can discover when you do. Have a hard time trusting your intuition? Heck, Mark Twain may have said it best with, Of course truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense. How can you stop making sense and trust your senses with the Strength ~ The Star ~ Justice Tarot Team?

With the Strength ~ The Star ~ Justice Birth Cards, what aspects of your life are uniquely identifiable as yours that can you cycle through to find something juicy to further embrace your alchemy of Self with…? Check out the next 46 seconds of a video for some… hmmm, no spoilers… What chords are struck that resonate with you from this 46sec video? How can you justifiably without sense — simply because you do in a place where reasons are unreasonable — benefit from your Inner Enlightenment or simply Inner Clarity to bring things to full term like the Empress to be birthed into your life and the World?

The Sun ~ 46 Seconds to Find YOU!

This Week

It’s a #8 day today, so enjoy the:

Mystereum Tarot Moment Eight of Pentacles

0 min 44 sec

With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation process while you enact a disciplined approach to reverently honor the continual focus of your clarity? Does that question build a sanctuary to enter and explore your sacred Self?

Notice if you begin to feel depletion. If you do, it is often either from mis-spent efforts, slippage, or its time to rest and refuel. Running on fumes will actually expend more energy and tire you out more than running with a full tank.

And maybe think about Mindfulness to help you out. I do not feel that Mindfulness is to empty us out of negative inner influences. More so, that it is for us to face and engage and become besties with our beasties. Danger? Potentially? Sure, sometimes, like life itself. Though, think about it this way. If they harm me, they harm their home. So, I let their storms rage inside when they present themselves. And, as their storm subsides robustly and empathically witnessed by me in reverence Silence, I ask, What is your message?

Once a storm has spent itself, it has often shed itself of all the extraneous marble block parts like Michelangelo liberating David. Then, they can integrate, you might feel a cascade of ablution tingles as they nestle back into wherever their trauma was living in your body as they bring more of You to You with their power as experiential enhancements born of facing your traumas. Or, they don’t integrate, in which case you let them go as if vanished forever, … or, they sidle up right beside you and behind you as another Chthonic Numinosity Light~Shadow Ally of Self. Can’t have too many of those.

Someone asked me last week how long PTSD lasts. A lifetime, was my response. Color that with this, though it lasts a lifetime, it lasts a lifetime in its influence as you transform it over time from Lead to gold, from trauma to treasure. After you face your fears and traumas, work with them, with a Professional is good, they can transform to release and renew you. So, the PTSD part doesn’t really last a lifetime. The PTSD is a point of origin. Its ever-evolving influence as you face and engage and use it is actually what last a lifetime. How can you invest in yourself today? How can you invest in yourself this week? What actions will you take as your initial Self-investment?

I resonate with Thich Nhat Hanh‘s

We do not practice Mindfulness to rid us of anger. We practice Mindfulness to take good care of it. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh.

My Friend Fred

I resonate with that alignment with him.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words and music as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another or out to the world, will you allow the words and music to be yours as if spoken and emanated directly from you and your internal community? As if they are a play about a journey produced by you about you, as you most likely know yourself better than anyone else.

SVRCINA ~ Astronomical

The Birthday Massacre ~ Run

The Birthday Massacre ~ Walking With Strangers (full album)

Pandora on my Sonos played them in that You Might Like way twice last weekend. I saw it like it magnified the 2nd time, an I listened to the message, listened to them again… YES!, is a word, and kinda turned into a another one-word complete sentence verb. Love it when substance embeds in action! Enjoy!

Verdarluz and Jocelyn Mercado ~ Bridging Dimensions Astrotheology Mystery School. Today, we live at the edge of uncertainty. It is at the edge of uncertainty where our most creative inspiration comes alive. ~ Joanna Macy. Personally (me, Jordan), I feel we have always lived at the edge of uncertainty. The world is always about to end in the perpetual present. Though, Verdarluz and Jocelyn Mercado have built a place full of Inner Nature and wonderment and robust experience for action to nourish that birth-n-death perpetual present moment. Check out the soulfully resonant and robust and rockin’ developmental work. Also, here’s a link to Verdarluz CelstiOwl’s Soundcloud music site.

Informed by over 30 years of psychological and spiritual study, her books and teachings guide others to growth and self-empowerment. Red Feather Mind Body Spirit is an imprint of Schiffer Publications who is my publisher. Love the synchronicity that I found her work in the Carl Jung Depth Psychology Reading Group rather than from my publisher. Pretty cool. Great to discover Jean’s work. Also, check out her work at Golden Seeds of Wisdom. I am looking forward to Dr. Raffa’s presentation Sunday, December 6, 2020 at 1:00 pm EST where she will introduce her new book, The Soul’s Twinswhich will be published on November 17, 2020.  Pre-orders are now being accepted by Amazon.com.

Dive in to the over 1,200 videos he has produced for a healthy dose of rockin’ness. Well worth the time spent, like the length of a great movie. I always come away with something new, and also usually a further fleshed out perspective. Also, Skip, along with Coeleen Kiebert and Tim Holmes are running the Pre-Election Collective Unconscious & Participation Mystique Project which I am participating in. Take a look.

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Helix and DNA strands anyone? Our world and solar system itself in its orbit is one of the life-giving shapes within us that contributes to our identity. Know Thyself and You Will Know the Universe is Metaphorical, though more so LITERAL, too!

SI: 11/13 Serendipity Itinerary

SI: 11/13 Serendipity Itinerary

Here is Your November Friday the 13th, 2020 SI. The Moon left Libra at 6:32a today to enter its Void of Course Astro Sign Synapse Journey. It will emerge Direct from the Void Synapse between signs in Scorpio at 11:19a today. The Moon will continue Direct as it moves through Scorpio to dive back under across the Void Synapse at 6:13a on Sunday, 11/15, to emerge Direct again in Sagittarius on 11/15 at 10:47a.

Void of Course is a bit like a mini-Mercury Rx, though instead of the magnetic drag of Mercury appearing to slow, which advises us to downshift, the opposite happens when the Moon goes Void of Course. Rather than drag, there is a slip, a letting go of the Astro Sign connection to disappear across the synapse of the cusp between signs. I feel the Void makes for a wonderful liminal horizon to surf with a foot on both sides, though I mark it in my schedule to not start new projects during it. I allow the flow of projects that have momentum to be worked with as we kind of Evil Knievel float through the air… to then land Direct on the ramp of the next sign, though without all the broken bones. … that we land Direct to reconnect our Inner LUNAtic to the next sign and engage with that creative gearbox.

Of note is that Jupiter joined Pluto in Capricorn yesterday kicking of a major shift in power. And, Mars goes direct to Station this evening, 11/13, at 7:36p. Mars Stationing Direct makes it a grand time to take a leap and be amplified by the intense burst of energy released.

* Note: All times given are EST In the USA.

Take the depth and directness of the Scorpio energies into your weekend, and team them up with the Mars Direct burst. I suggest to hold on. It’s not advised to get caught revving and have the tachometer up to the redline warming things up, and then accidentally sidestep the clutch when your foot slips. It’s going to be intense. Rather than worry or anxiety about falls, instead dial in your focus to your balance of intense things.

The not-things can get us in trouble all too easily. Focus on established priorities and established launches… even if its simply a walk in the park where you may vividly see and experience something you’ve not seen before. You know? That intensity of ablution tingles when your eyes light up when you discover something that moves you in a cool way.

How can you even up your keel, so that wind the big wind comes you shoot right out in the direction you intended… well, or at least in the range of that direction. There may be some torque that exceeds your grip at first. You;re the driver, though. Dial in to hang in and ride the initial squirrelly movements as your momentum sticks to engage forward movement in big ways.

Laughter is the shortest distance between people. ~ Victor Borge

You are not what you say you are going to do. You are what you do. ~ C.G. Jung

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Nov 13th, 2020

Sun ~ Wheel ~ Magician

Excellent Birth Card Pair to continually spark ideas, cycle them through your process, and brightly bring them to bear with clear and shining identities. Your naturally enlightened voice from within brings them brightly out the shadows of Your Place of Creation and into the world where they can dance together WITH Shadow as integrated allies both driving thei life force.

A crucial component of these three Archetypes is that they engage inner contents and the unconscious as useful and factual realities. Psychic and intuitive and imaginative and unconscious contents simply provide more facts to go with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives within yourself you can discover when you do. Have a hard time trusting your intuition? Heck, Mark Twain may have said it best with, Of course truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense. How can you stop making sense and trust your senses with the Sun ~ Wheel ~ Magician Tarot Team?

With the Sun ` Wheel ~ Magician Birth Cards, what aspects of your life are uniquely identifiable as yours that can you cycle through to find something juicy to further embrace your alchemy of Self with…? Check out the next 46 seconds of a video for some… hmmm, no spoilers… What chords are struck that resonate with you from this 46sec video? How can you justifiably without sense — simply because you do in a place where reasons are unreasonable — benefit from your Inner Enlightenment or simply Inner Clarity to bring things to full term like the Empress to be birthed into your life and the World?

There is nothing in the caterpillar that tells you it‘s going to be a butterfly.

It’s a #1 day today, so enjoy the:

So, I say, Don’t waste trouble. Jodorowski’s Chariot said, I made a diamond from my misfortune. With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and/or embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation(s) while you stick to the point?

Notice if you begin to feel depletion. If you do, it is often either from mis-spent efforts, slippage, or its time to rest and refuel. Running on fumes will actually expend more energy and tire you out more than running with a full tank.

And maybe think about Mindfulness to help you out. I do not feel that Mindfulness is to empty us out of negative inner influences. More so, that it is for us to face and engage and become besties with our beasties. Danger? Potentially? Though, think about it this way. If they harm me, they harm their home. So, I let their storms rage inside when they present themselves. And, as their storm subsides robustly and empathically witnessed by me in reverence Silence, I ask, “What is your message?” Once a storm has spent itself, it has often shed itself of all the extraneous marble block parts like Michelangelo liberating David. Then, they can integrate, you might feel a cascade of ablution tingles as they nestle back into wherever their trauma was living in your body, though bringing more of You with their power enhancing yours now rather than trauma. Or, they don’t integrate, in which case you let them go as if vanished forever, … or, they sidle up right beside and behind you as another Chthonic Numinosity Light~Shadow Ally. Can;t have too many of those.

Someone asked me this week how long PTSD lasts. A lifetime, was my response. Color that with this, though. It lasts a lifetime… in its influence. Though, after you face it, work with it, with a Professional is good, it can transform and be transformed to release and renew you. So, the PTSD doesn’t really last a lifetime, though it’s ever-evolving influence as you face and engage and use it does.

I resonate with Thich Nhat Hanh‘s

We do not practice Mindfulness to rid us of anger. We practice Mindfulness to take good care of it. ~ Thich Nhat Hanh.

My Friend Fred

I resonate with that alignment with him.

Carrie Paris is the Video Producer on my Mystereum Tarot Moments series from 2012-2013. Check out her beautiful site!

Recently

I’m full-on pleased that my article The Kintsukuroi of Self was published in Issue 35 of The Tarot Association’s Tarosophist International Magazine Equinox Issue.

Note that the Tarosophist International Magazine is a members-only magazine with public print to resume soon.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words and music as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another or out to the world, will you allow the words and music to be yours as if spoken and emanated directly from you and your internal community? As if they are a play about a journey produced by you about you, as you most likely know yourself better than anyone else.

Verdarluz ~ Tribal Stomp Ecstatic Dance – Rhythm Sanctuary

Digital Daggers ~ Nothing’s Broken

Digital Daggers is one of my new favorite bands along with The Civil Wars. Digital Daggers has a wicked cool way of approaching the Self head on, wonderfully handling psychological and relationship topics with heartfelt grace and a no holds barred intensity.

Where Will Your SI Take You This Week?

Verdarluz and Jocelyn Mercado ~ Bridging Dimensions Astrotheology Mystery School. Today, we live at the edge of uncertainty. It is at the edge of uncertainty where our most creative inspiration comes alive. ~ Joanna Macy. Personally (me, Jordan), I feel we have always lived at the edge of uncertainty. The world is always about to end in the perpetual present. Though, Verdarluz and Jocelyn Mercado have built a place full of Inner Nature and wonderment and robust experience for action to nourish that birth-n-death perpetual present moment. Check out the soulfully resonant and robust and rockin’ developmental work. Also, here’s a link to Verdarluz CelstiOwl’s Soundcloud music site.

Dr. Jean Raffa ~ Think Psychologically. Live Spiritually. A former television producer and college professor, Dr. Raffa changed directions in midlife to discover and write about her passions. Informed by over 30 years of psychological and spiritual study, her books and teachings guide others to growth and self-empowerment. Red Feather Mind Body Spirit is an imprint of Schiffer Publications who is my publisher. Love the synchronicity that I found her work in the Carl Jung Depth Psychology Reading Group rather than from my publisher. Pretty cool. Great to discover Jean’s work. Also, check out her work at Golden Seeds of Wisdom. I am looking forward to Dr. Raffa’s presentation Sunday, December 6, 2020 at 1:00 pm EST where she will introduce her new book, The Soul’s Twinswhich will be published on November 17, 2020.  Pre-orders are now being accepted by Amazon.com.

Dive in to the over 1,200 videos he has produced for a healthy dose of rockin’ness. Well worth the time spent, like the length of a great movie. I always come away with something new, and also usually a further fleshed out perspective. Also, Skip, along with Coeleen Kiebert and Tim Holmes are running the Pre-Election Collective Unconscious & Participation Mystique Project which I am participating in. Take a look.

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

Tim Holmes ~ Tim Holmes Studio. A passionate artist with vision and an actionable mission consistently doing something with it for the good of the Self and the world. Hearing His Own Voice: A Life of Sculptor Tim Holmes. By Brian D’Ambrosio. Also, explore Tim’s Jung And Alive Meaning Finder.

Please share his recent Black in AI 2020 Call for Papers post to magnetize others who might not have otherwise been aware of the opportunity to advance the AI (Artificial Intelligence) community.

About Martha: After thirty years teaching writing in San Diego, in 2014, I returned to live in my home state, Colorado. I live in the remote, beautiful and mysterious San Luis Valley.

Scott Spillman ~ The Point Magazine. New article, Charismatic Models.(My words follow, these are not Scott’s or the Magazine’s) I loathe politics as the great irony of our time, maybe any time when people who are not personally sovereign can be ruled simply by the sniff of a suggestion.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Nov 6th, 2020

World ~ Hanged Man ~ Empress

Excellent Birth Card Pair to continually embrace transformation in a very matter of fact manner as you carry things to full term with your naturally enlightened voice to bring them brightly out of the shadows of Your Place of Creation and into the world. A crucial component of these three Archetypes’ is that they engage inner contents and the unconscious as useful and factual realities. Psychic and intuitive and imaginative and unconscious contents simply provide more facts to go with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives within yourself you can discover when you do. Have a hard time trusting your intuition? Heck, Mark Twain may have said it best with, Of course truth is stranger than fiction. Fiction has to make sense. How can you stop making sense and trust your senses?

With the World ~ Hanged Man ~ Empress Birth Cards, what aspects of your life are uniquely identifiable as yours that can you cycle through to find something juicy to further embrace your alchemy of Self with…? Check out the next 46 seconds of a video for some… hmmm, no spoilers… What chords are struck that resonate with you from this 46sec video? How can you justifiably without sense — simply because you do in a place where reasons are unreasonable — benefit from your Inner Enlightenment or simply Inner Clarity to bring things to full term like the Empress to be birthed into your life and the World?

There is nothing in the caterpillar that tells you it‘s going to be a butterfly.

This Week

It’s a #3 day today, so enjoy the:

Mystereum Tarot Moment 3 of Pentacles

0 min 59 sec

and some Friday fun for you… and thanks Carrie Paris, my Producer in 2013! This may be the BEST use of an Espresso Maker part ever…

Mystereum Tarot Moment with the 2 of Swords

1 min 14 sec

So, I say, Don’t waste trouble. Jodorowski’s Chariot said, I made a diamond from my misfortune. With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and/or embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation(s) while you stick to the point? How do you dial in to focus to refresh your perspective and see something so big and so there you may have been missing it hiding in plain sight in a blind spot of expectation? What blind spot can you identify today? Once there, what treasure unfolds? What personal message do you unpack from deep within yourself that has its nose poking up in your garden? — Yes, that is a Spring metaphor… this year I am adamantly against winter. Cold… Cold just doesn’t feel very good right now. Oh well, I’ll unpack the winter coats and clean them so they are ready. grumblegrumblegrumble, says Grog my Inner Caveman Marketing Director. Grog no like cold. Grog say cold no fun on toes many too much times. 🙂

One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.

My Friend Fred

I say Fred’s chaos = Nature itself, and one’s natural and immutable Nature of Self.

What messages of unique new births in your life do the World~Hanged Man~Empress have for you today with the Moon in the Fire sign of Leo? How can you aspirate your fire to step up the effectiveness of its heat? A loose and unfocused blow torch makes no cuts, just wastes the gas. How can you tune and focus to dial in your fire today and through the weekend?

Tarot Voice Prompt Exercise

How do you express a fluid fluency with transformational energies in real time on the fly? Record yourself speaking about The World ~ Hanged Man ~ Empress. Close your eyes and play yourself back afterwards. Listen deeply to your voice and what you hear IN your voice even more than what words you say or sounds you make. What do you hear. How does that feel? Do you hear anything new? What do the highs and lows of your voice tell you about where you are right at this very moment in the perpetual present?

What about the flow of what you hear in your voice? Dance like you’re the Sun itself, click record, and experience the exquisite magic in your orbits of your community within and about. If you’re more visual, doodle like no one is watching. Maybe even also you if you doodle with your eyes closed. No matter if the pencil/pen/brush/marker/charcoal,stick slides off the paper. Heck, if it does, maybe you just went off trail inside into some new Nature territory where good stuff tends to make their homes.

Writing Prompt Exercise

Look out the window. Go Outside and look in the window… look into the window of yourself (Temple of You) for 1min 14sec, and record yourself on your phone or a tape recorder again doing the above, or Morse Code, however you roll. Ask yourself: What magic orbits around me? How and when am I most magnetic with things that resonate with me? How do I allow this inform your current perspective? What will I do about it today? Some things are wheels, some things are cogs. I do not demean cogs as less than. A cog functions under intense temperatures and pressures all the while as it continually keeps engaged to gear in without a slip. And, if it does slip, it can often be re-tooled to be put back in place. And, maybe it could also mean it would like a rest more periodically than it currently gets. Rest and subtle actions. Rest and subtle actions and the caterpillar becomes the butterfly and does not overheat the transformation.

Note that the Tarosophist International Magazine is a members-only magazine with public print to resume soon.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words and music as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another or out to the world, will you allow the words and music to be yours as if spoken and emanated directly from you and your internal community? As if they are a play about a journey produced by you about you, as you most likely know yourself better than anyone else… or at least have the keys to access that as being potentially so. Some of them may fall flat and not apply. Then again, some may spark something inside you with this listening exercise. Dance along to your play if you feel to. Give it a go, and see what happens when you turn poetry/lyric authorship inward and speak them yourself as if they originated from you to you. When you resonate with something, isn’t that the Collective Unconscious feeling we all get? That is certainly a question. I feel so more often than not, that connection when things cascade ablution tingles through my body like subtly distributed Astro-orgasms cleansing and nourishing as they flow through. What’s your take on that? I’d love to hear how you express what you feel when something resonates with you.

Verdarluz ~ Tribal Stomp Ecstatic Dance – Rhythm Sanctuary

Digital Daggers ~ Nothing’s Broken

Digital Daggers is one of my new favorite bands along with The Civil Wars. Digital Daggers has a wicked cool way of approaching the Self head on, wonderfully handling psychological and relationship topics with heartfelt grace and a no holds barred intensity.

Here We Go into Your Serendipity Itinerary for November 6th

Serendipity Itinerary Sites

There are excellent new posts this week! Think you’ve seen them before? Me, too. Then, there was this week. The vibe, like the world, is all over the place, to each their own, and 2 cycles revved up the tach to downshift and feel the drag like the centrifugal G-forces when I jet out of a turn onto the straightaway in harmonic balance where the car has no resistance… just climbs the speed as all comes into focus. All similar, each unique. That’s my image. What’s yours? Have you raised your head over the chaos to harmonize your fluctuations in resonance with your natural Nature?

I suggest take 2 sites below that you are familiar with and revisit their current post(s). Then, I-Ching ’em and run your own Serendipity Itinerary to 2 that are new to you. Another great week. Prepare this month to not waste trouble as diamonds take some time and intense pressure to form. The stars and planets are menacing only if you let them be. Mercury Rx? (Retrograde). Simply downshift and re-calibrate to attune yourself and adjust your pace and how you rev and drive the directions you do,

Planets, like Tarot cards, are magical allies when you OWN the magnetism of how their movement relationships influence things. Good? Bad? Nah. Workability. I find there’s always workability when you adjust your perspective to align or intentionally misalign. I don;lt go with the flow as only dead fish go with the flow. I prefer fluid fluency and to swim upstream. Besides just being a great workout, stuff tends to come TO you then.

Where Will Your SI Take You This Week?

cocinaitaly ~ Elganspo, comida italiana. Hungry? Hungry for edible beauty, aesthetic eats? Exquisite is a word. Edibly exquisite is two words. Grab a friend, and go experience this. What will your words be afterwards?

Karen Sealey ~ The Pure & Blessed Tarot. ~ Riding the cusp between imagination and reality. Her Orphaned Oracle is BORN and now available! Check out the Game Crafter link on her site to purchase!

Verdarluz and Jocelyn Mercado ~ Bridging Dimensions Astrotheology Mystery School. Today, we live at the edge of uncertainty. It is at the edge of uncertainty where our most creative inspiration comes alive. ~ Joanna Macy. Personally (me, Jordan), I feel we have always lived at the edge of uncertainty. The world is always about to end in the perpetual present. Though, Verdarluz and Jocelyn Mercado have built a place full of Inner Nature and wonderment and robust experience for action to nourish that birth-n-death perpetual present moment. Check out the soulfully resonant and robust and rockin’ developmental work. Also, here’s a link to Verdarluz CelstiOwl’s Soundcloud music site.

Dr. Jean Raffa ~ Think Psychologically. Live Spiritually. A former television producer and college professor, Dr. Raffa changed directions in midlife to discover and write about her passions. Informed by over 30 years of psychological and spiritual study, her books and teachings guide others to growth and self-empowerment. Red Feather Mind Body Spirit is an imprint of Schiffer Publications who is my publisher. Love the synchronicity that I found her work in the Carl Jung Depth Psychology Reading Group rather than from my publisher. Pretty cool. Great to discover Jean’s work. Also, check out her work at Golden Seeds of Wisdom. I am looking forward to Dr. Raffa’s presentation Sunday, December 6, 2020 at 1:00 pm EST where she will introduce her new book, The Soul’s Twinswhich will be published on November 17, 2020.  Pre-orders are now being accepted by Amazon.com.

Dive in to the over 1,200 videos he has produced for a healthy dose of rockin’ness. Well worth the time spent, like the length of a great movie. I always come away with something new, and also usually a further fleshed out perspective. Also, Skip, along with Coeleen Kiebert and Tim Holmes are running the Pre-Election Collective Unconscious & Participation Mystique Project which I am participating in. Take a look.

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

Tim Holmes ~ Tim Holmes Studio. A passionate artist with vision and an actionable mission consistently doing something with it for the good of the Self and the world. Hearing His Own Voice: A Life of Sculptor Tim Holmes. By Brian D’Ambrosio. Also, explore Tim’s Jung And Alive Meaning Finder.

Charlescearl’s Weblog ~ Musings on fascinating things. Important and fascinating things well said. Charles not only thinks things through, he lives them through. You can feel it in his writing.

Jane Lurie Photography ~ powerful, evocative freeze-frames of architectural images that are definitely not secretly active. These images live out loud! They are refined.

These beauties have some pipes in their visual voice.

Timothy Price ~ Off Center & Not Even. Is variety the spice of life? Go here and see! The photography is magnificent.

Cristian Mihai ~ Professional Blogger. Sense & Sensibility meets the info age? He’s not afraid to say it, whatever he says. No walking on eggshells here, well, unless he starts making compost for the garden. Excellent tips for bloggers and thinkers and feelers.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Enjoy the DNA of our Solar System as it moves along its 230-million year orbit around our Milky Way galaxy. Credit to A.T. Mann for sending me this years back when he was a guest on my Inner State Highways internet TV show. Hmmm, I miss doing that. Well, I might want to do something about that…

This is such a cool creation about the larger creation we live our own orbits within, and looks like the DNA orbits within us as well. Go figure. Know thyself and know the universe just took on a simple tone as well.

Helix and DNA strands anyone? There’s such a wonderful Who let the dogs out? Us, our world and solar system itself in orbit.

SI: 10/30 Serendipity Itinerary

SI: 10/30 Serendipity Itinerary

Here is Your October 30Th, 2020 SI with the Moon Having gone Direct in to Aries 10/28 at 4:45am. The Moon went into its Psychic Synapse Void of Course from Aries at 12:12pm today, 10/30. And, it went Direct in Taurus today at 5:19pm. The Moon will make its journey to Full in Taurus through this wonderful Lift The Veils When They Are Thin Halloween Time until it once again dives into its Void of Course Astro Psychic Synapse Sunday at 9:29pm on November 1st. The Full Moon officially occurs at 10:49am EST. And, it is of note that for the 1st time since 1944 The Full Moon occurs when Uranus is conjunct Taurus.

* Note: All times given are EST In the USA.

Take the energetic air and earth qualities of Uranus (air) and Taurus (earth) today and tomorrow to engage in what I call Cloistering Your Inner House. Uranus is super-comfortable in Taurus, and Taurus enjoys the heady shake-up. Taurus often has a sold house that can get a bit too solid. The Uranian Shaker Upper will enter the Taurean House and open it up like a Greek home with an inner courtyard open to the sky. Or, like at Mont St Michel in France, open up a cloister at the top. I consider the cloister to be an architectural Crown chakra. How can you amplify the air and earth qualities in your life to powerfully aspirate your engine and open up to the sky inside?

I also consider Uranus to be an Architect here that you can commission for an internal remodel, and Taurus to be the Client’s home of your Self. If your inner Client Priorities aren’t to go as far as reconfiguring with this remodel to have an inner courtyard or cloister, Uranus as Architect may step up and say, “Babe, understood, though at the very least we need to add a big ole skylight here to clear the Inner Air and bring in more Inner Light. I suggest we locate it in the center of your abode.”

So, I ask, What is the center of your Inner Home for you? How can you open it up to release pent-up energies, expand to new heights within, and feel your Crown chakra as a Place of Power that is only amplified when you stand in the freed up center of your home?

Laughter is the shortest distance between people.

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Oct 30th, 2020

XVII Star ~ VIII Justice (Strength if you roll with Strength as VIII)

Excellent Birth Card Pair to continually embrace transformation in a very matter of fact manner with your celestial groove tapping your natural, inner animal voice with epic is-what-it-is balance. A crucial component of these Archetypes’ realities are that they engage with inner contents and the unconscious as a useful fact. Psychic and intuitive and imaginative and unconscious contents simply provide more facts to go with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives within yourself you can discover when you do.

With the Star ~ Strength (or, Justice) Birth Cards, what aspects of your life are uniquely identifiable as yours that can you cycle through to find something juicy to further embrace your alchemy of Self with…? Check out the next 46 (45) seconds of a video for some… hmmm, no spoilers… What chords are struck that resonate with you from this 46sec video? How can your Star and Strength justifiably benefit from your Inner Sun with a cloister of Inner Courtyard or even something as mundane as a skylight?

There is nothing in the caterpillar that tells you it‘s going to be a butterfly.

This Week

It’s a #8 day today, so enjoy the:

Mystereum Tarot Moment 8 of Pentacles

0 min 44 sec

and some Friday fun for you… and thanks Carrie Paris! This may be the BEST use of an Espresso Maker part ever…

1 min 06 sec

So, I say, Don’t waste trouble. Jodorowski’s Chariot said, I made a diamond from my misfortune. With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and/or embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation(s) while you stick to the point? Is transformation one of the key drivers in the heartbeat of beauty? How about an Inner Remodel project? Where does your oculus go? How does you Crown chakra already do this for you naturally?

One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.

My Friend Fred

I say Fred’s chaos = Nature itself, and one’s natural and immutable Nature of Self.

What messages of unique breathing room do The Sun ~ Wheel ~ Magician have for you today with the Moon in the Air sign of Aquarius? How can you aspirate an idea with that to step up its effectiveness.

Tarot Voice Prompt Exercise

How do you express a fluid fluency with transformational energies in real time on the fly? Record yourself speaking about The Star ~ Strength cards + Justice. Close your eyes and play yourself back afterwards. Listen deeply to your voice and what you hear IN your voice even more than what words you say or sounds you make. What do you hear. How does that feel? Do you hear anything new? What do the highs and lows of your voice tell you about where you are right at this very moment in the perpetual present?

What about the flow of what you hear in your voice? Dance like you’re the Sun itself, click record, and experience the exquisite magic in your orbits of your community within and about. If you’re more visual, doodle like no one is watching. Maybe even also you if you doodle with your eyes closed. No matter if the pencil/pen/brush/marker/charcoal,stick slides off the paper. Heck, if it does, maybe you just went off trail inside into some new Nature territory where good stuff tends to make their homes.

Writing Prompt Exercise

Look out the window. Go Outside and look in the window… look into the window of yourself (Temple of You) for 0min 44sec, and record yourself on your phone or a tape recorder again doing the above, or Morse Code, however you roll. Ask yourself: What magic orbits around me? How and when am I most magnetic with things that resonate with me? How do you allow this inform your current perspective? What will you do about it? Some things are wheels, some things are cogs. I do not demean cogs as less than. A cog functions under intense temperatures and pressures all the while as it continually keeps engaged to gear in without a slip. And, if it does slip, it can often be re-tooled to be put back in place. And, maybe it could also mean it would like a rest more periodically than its getting to no overheat.

Recently

I’m full-on pleased that my article The Kintsukuroi of Self was published in Issue 35 of The Tarot Association’s Tarosophist International Magazine Equinox Issue. I’m stoked with the honor and the quality of their presentation. Thank you Marcus Katz and Tali Goodwin, and Charlotte and the Tarosophy Team! Note that the Tarosophist International Magazine is a members-only magazine with public print to resume soon.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another, will you allow the words to be yours spoken to you and your internal community? As if a play produced about you? Some of them may fall flat and not apply. Then again, some may spark something inside with this listening exercise. Dance along to your play if you feel to. Give it a go, and see what happens when you turn poetry/lyrics inward to speak to yourself as if they originated from you to you. I played with Silence this week, so the music is the same as last week’s. Listen or hop right over it with Silence and dig into the intensities in everyone’s blogs this week.

Digital Daggers ~ In Flames

Digital Daggers ~ Nothing’s Broken

Digital Daggers is one of my new favorite bands along with The Civil Wars. Digital Daggers has a wicked cool way of approaching the Self head on, wonderfully handling psychological and relationship topics with heartfelt grace and a no holds barred intensity.

Here We Go into Your Serendipity Itinerary for October 30th

Serendipity Itinerary Sites

There are excellent new posts this week! Think you’ve seen them before? Me, too. Then, there was this week. The vibe, like the world, is all over the place, to each their own. All similar, each unique. My image is splashing in the water. Just splash and splash and let the splash be… unless you’re in Oz or South Africa. Then, do that in a pool. I wouldn’t want you to hear dangerous cello music in the ocean. Du Nuh…

I suggest take 2 sites you are familiar with and revisit their current post(s). Then, I-Ching ’em and run your own Serendipity Itinerary to 2 that are new to you. Another great week. Prepare this month to not waste trouble as diamonds take some time and intense pressure to form. The stars and planets are menacing only if you let them be. Mercury Rx? (Retrograde). Simply downshift and re-calibrate to attune yourself and adjust your pace and how you rev and drive the directions you do,

Planets, like Tarot cards, are magical allies when you OWN the magnetism of how their movement relationships influence things. Good? Bad? Nah. Workability. I find there’s always workability when you adjust your perspective to align or intentionally misalign. I don;lt go with the flow as only dead fish go with the flow. I prefer fluid fluency and to swim upstream. Besides just being a great workout, stuff tends to come TO you then.

Where Will Your SI Take You This Week?

cocinaitaly ~ Elganspo, comida italiana. Hungry? Hungry for edible beauty, aesthetic eats? Exquisite is a word. Edibly exquisite is two words. Grab a friend, and go experience this. What will your words be afterwards?

Karen Sealey ~ The Pure & Blessed Tarot. ~ Riding the cusp between imagination and reality. Her Orphaned Oracle is BORN and now available! Check out the Game Crafter link on her site to purchase! She also has Waxtober this month and rockin’ ramblings and Rantras and musings with no pulled punches. There are lots of exquisite surprises along the way. THIS is a site to watch.

Informed by over 30 years of psychological and spiritual study, her books and teachings guide others to growth and self-empowerment. Red Feather Mind Body Spirit is an imprint of Schiffer Publications who is my publisher. Love the synchronicity that I found her work in the Carl Jung Depth Psychology Reading Group rather than from my publisher. Pretty cool. Great to discover Jean’s work. Also, check out her work at Golden Seeds of Wisdom. I am looking forward to Dr. Raffa’s presentation Sunday, December 6, 2020 at 1:00 pm EST where she will introduce her new book, The Soul’s Twinswhich will be published on November 17, 2020.  Pre-orders are now being accepted by Amazon.com.

Dive in to the over 1,200 videos he has produced for a healthy dose of rockin’ness. Well worth the time spent, like the length of a great movie. I always come away with something new, and also usually a further fleshed out perspective. Also, Skip, along with Coeleen Kiebert and Tim Holmes are running the Pre-Election Collective Unconscious & Participation Mystique Project which I am participating in. Take a look.

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

Tim Holmes ~ Tim Holmes Studio. A passionate artist with vision and an actionable mission consistently doing something with it for the good of the Self and the world. Hearing His Own Voice: A Life of Sculptor Tim Holmes. By Brian D’Ambrosio. Also, explore Tim’s Jung And Alive Meaning Finder.

The Alchemist’s Studio ~ Raku, vessels, Alchemy in action. Pottery with heart and soul PLUS some PUNitive humor to boot. Don’t miss the Hens! Another place of great perspective.

Charlescearl’s Weblog ~ Musings on fascinating things. Important and fascinating things well said. Charles not only thinks things through, he lives them through. You can feel it in his writing. Don’t go for the writing. Go for experience you will remember. Indelible is a word, and a good one with Charles’ weblog. Please share his recent Black in AI 2020 Call for Papers post to magnetize others who might not have otherwise been aware of the opportunity to advance the AI (Artificial Intelligence) community.

Author Melissa Crismon ~ Oceans of Love. Melissa is the author of the MerSea series about a conservationist mermaid.

New article, Charismatic Models.(My words follow, these are not Scott’s or the Magazine’s) I loathe politics as the great irony of our time, maybe any time when people who are not personally sovereign can be ruled simply by the sniff of a suggestion.

I advise to bring tissues for all the right reasons.

Saania2086 ~ Philosophy is all about being curious, asking basic questions. And it can be fun! If P, then Q. If you want good sense, then go here to see what dynamic mind dish is being served up today.

Jane Lurie Photography ~ powerful, evocative freeze-frames of architectural images that are definitely not secretly active. These images live out loud! They are refined.

These beauties have some pipes in their visual voice.

Cristian Mihai ~ Professional Blogger. Sense & Sensibility meets the info age? He’s not afraid to say it, whatever he says. No walking on eggshells here, well, unless he starts making compost for the garden. Excellent tips for bloggers and thinkers and feelers.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Enjoy the DNA of our Solar System as it moves along its 230-million year orbit around our Milky Way galaxy. Credit to A.T. Mann for sending me this years back when he was a guest on my Inner State Highways internet TV show. Hmmm, I miss doing that. Well, I might want to do something about that…

This is such a cool creation about the larger creation we live our own orbits within, and looks like the DNA orbits within us as well. Go figure. Know thyself and know the universe just took on a simple tone as well.

Helix and DNA strands anyone? There’s such a wonderful Who let the dogs out? Us, our world and solar system itself in orbit.

Solar System & DNA

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Oct 23rd, 2020

Sun ~ Wheel ~ Magician

Excellent Birth Card Pair to continually embrace transformation in a very matter of fact manner. A crucial component of their reality is that they engage with inner contents and the unconscious in factual ways as easily as they interact with people at a get-together. Psychic and unconscious contents are simply more facts to go with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives you can discover.

With The Sun ~ Wheel ~ Magician what aspects of your life that are uniquely identifiable as yours can you cycle through to find something juicy to further embrace your alchemy of Self with…? Check out the next 46 (45) seconds of a video for some… hmmm, no spoilers… What chords are struck that resonate with you from this 46sec video?

This Week

It’s a #1 day today, so enjoy the:

Mystereum Tarot Moment Ace of Pentacles

0 min 52 (51) sec

and some Friday fun for you… and thanks Carrie Paris! This may be the BEST use of an Espresso Maker part ever…

1 min 06 sec

So again I say, Don’t waste trouble. Jodorowski’s Chariot said, I made a diamond from my misfortune. With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and/or embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation(s) while you stick to the point? Is transformation one of the key drivers in the heartbeat of beauty?

One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.

My Friend Fred

I say Fred’s chaos = Nature itself, and one’s natural and immutable Nature of Self.

What messages of unique breathing room do The Sun ~ Wheel ~ Magician have for you today with the Moon in the Air sign of Aquarius? How can you aspirate an idea with that to step up its effectiveness.

Tarot Voice Prompt Exercise

How do you express a fluid fluency with transformational energies in real time on the fly? Record yourself speaking about The Sun ~ Wheel ~ Magician. Close your eyes and play yourself back afterwards. Listen deeply to your voice and what you hear IN your voice even more than what words you say or sounds you make. What do you hear. How does that feel? Do you hear anything new? What do the highs and lows of your voice tell you about where you are right at this very moment in the perpetual present?

What about the flow of what you hear in your voice? Dance like you’re the Sun itself, click record, and experience the exquisite magic in your orbits of your community within and about. If you’re more visual, doodle like no one is watching. Maybe even also you if you doodle with your eyes closed. No matter if the pencil/pen/brush/marker/charcoal,stick slides off the paper. Heck, if it does, maybe you just went off trail inside into some new Nature territory where good stuff tends to make their homes.

Writing Prompt Exercise

Look out the window. Go Outside and look in the window… look into the window of yourself (Temple of You) for 0min 46sec, and record yourself on your phone or a tape recorder again doing the above, or Morse Code, however you roll. Ask yourself: What magic orbits around me? How and when am I most magnetic with things that resonate with me? How do you allow this inform your current perspective? What will you do about it? Some things are wheels, some things are cogs. I do not demean cogs as less than. A cog functions under intense temperatures and pressures all the while as it continually keeps engaged to gear in without a slip. And, if it does slip, it can often be re-tooled to be put back in place. And, maybe it could also mean it would like a rest more periodically than its getting to no overheat.

The Tortoise & The Hare

The Tortoise and the Hare. Has the Hare ever won? Nope. The Hare just stacks manicy on top of anxiety manicy one after the other like a Dagwood sandwich with his false sense of urgency as he bounces all over like a confused Pachinko ball.

The Tortoise? He experiences every step, and every wonderful sensation between each step. I gather he might even stop at some strange and thick white line painted across his road while crowds cheer all around and he, How cool. Will you just look at all those divets in the asphalt highlighted by this cool white band across the road? With a wry smil he might even swing his head around to the Hare that bounces around everywhere with, HEY HARE! What IS this beautiful thing? Ha! Just kidding as he puts his foot down on that cool, white line. WINNER!

And, the Tortoises smiles, steeps in the moment, and finds some cool cats to experience stuff with. The Tortoise might not ever care about winning, and always does. The Hare? Most likely ONLY cares about winning, and consequently never does. Experience wins out here, huh? Is the Tortoise an experience Magician?

Carrie Paris is the Video Producer on my Mystereum Tarot Moments series from 2012-2013. Check out her beautiful site!

Recently

I’m full-on pleased that my article The Kintsukuroi of Self was published in Issue 35 of The Tarot Association’s Tarosophist International Magazine Equinox Issue. I’m stoked with the honor and the quality of their presentation. Thank you Marcus Katz and Tali Goodwin, and Charlotte and the Tarosophy Team! Note that the Tarosophist International Magazine is a members-only magazine with public print to resume soon.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another, will you allow the words to be yours spoken to you and your internal community? As if a play produced about you? Some of them may fall flat and not apply. Then again, some may spark something inside with this listening exercise. Dance along to your play if you feel to. Give it a go, and see what happens when you turn poetry/lyrics inward to speak to yourself as if they originated from you to you. I played with Silence this week, so the music is the same as last week’s. Listen or hop right over it with Silence and dig into the intensities in everyone’s blogs this week.

Digital Daggers ~ In Flames

Digital Daggers ~ Nothing’s Broken

Digital Daggers is one of my new favorite bands along with The Civil Wars. Digital Daggers has a wicked cool way of approaching the Self head on, wonderfully handling psychological and relationship topics with heartfelt grace and a no holds barred intensity.

Here We Go into Your Serendipity Itinerary for October 23rd

Serendipity Itinerary Sites

There are excellent new posts this week! Think you’ve seen them before? Me, too. Then, there was this week. The vibe, like the world, is all over the place, to each their own. All similar, each unique. My image is splashing in the water. Just splash and splash and let the splash be… unless you’re in Oz or South Africa. Then, do that in a pool. I wouldn’t want you to hear dangerous cello music in the ocean. Du Nuh…

I suggest take 2 sites you are familiar with and revisit their current post(s). Then, I-Ching ’em and run your own Serendipity Itinerary to 2 that are new to you. Another great week. Prepare this month to not waste trouble as diamonds take some time and intense pressure to form. The stars and planets are menacing only if you let them be. Mercury Rx? (Retrograde). Simply downshift and re-calibrate to attune yourself and adjust your pace and how you rev and drive the directions you do,

Planets, like Tarot cards, are magical allies when you OWN the magnetism of how their movement relationships influence things. Good? Bad? Nah. Workability. I find there’s always workability when you adjust your perspective to align or intentionally misalign. I don;lt go with the flow as only dead fish go with the flow. I prefer fluid fluency and to swim upstream. Besides just being a great workout, stuff tends to come TO you then.

Where Will Your SI Take You This Week?

cocinaitaly ~ Elganspo, comida italiana. Hungry? Hungry for edible beauty, aesthetic eats? Exquisite is a word. Edibly exquisite is two words. Grab a friend, and go experience this. What will your words be afterwards?

Karen Sealey ~ The Pure & Blessed Tarot. ~ Riding the cusp between imagination and reality. Her Orphaned Oracle is BORN and now available! Check out the Game Crafter link on her site to purchase! She also has Waxtober this month and rockin’ ramblings and Rantras and musings with no pulled punches. There are lots of exquisite surprises along the way. THIS is a site to watch.

Dr. Jean Raffa ~ Think Psychologically. Live Spiritually. A former television producer and college professor, Dr. Raffa changed directions in midlife to discover and write about her passions. Informed by over 30 years of psychological and spiritual study, her books and teachings guide others to growth and self-empowerment. Red Feather Mind Body Spirit is an imprint of Schiffer Publications who is my publisher. Love the synchronicity that I found her work in the Carl Jung Depth Psychology Reading Group rather than from my publisher. Pretty cool. Great to discover Jean’s work. Also, check out her work at Golden Seeds of Wisdom. I am looking forward to Dr. Raffa’s presentation Sunday, December 6, 2020 at 1:00 pm EST where she will introduce her new book, The Soul’s Twinswhich will be published on November 17, 2020.  Pre-orders are now being accepted by Amazon.com.

Donald L. (Skip) Conover ~ is creating Videos for laymen about the Collected Works of Dr. Carl G.Jung. Founder of the C.G. Jung Depth Psychology Reading Group. Dive in to the over 1,200 videos he has produced for a healthy dose of rockin’ness. Well worth the time spent, like the length of a great movie. I always come away with something new, and also usually a further fleshed out perspective. Also, Skip, along with Coeleen Kiebert and Tim Holmes are running the Pre-Election Collective Unconscious & Participation Mystique Project which I am participating in. Take a look.

Coeleen Kiebert ~ Navigating the Unmanifest. My art is the expression of a mysterious, quiet story that has within it a line of truth deeper than I am able to see any other way.  Often, I wonder how others know what’s going on inside of themselves.  How do they know what’s really happening?   How do they cope with the deeper meanings of life without an art form to guide them?  Doing art is the way I search for this inner truth.  The images that appear in the clay lead me to an understanding that is beyond that which I can gain from common reflection.  It is a communication with myself and the language is my art. (c) Coeleen Kiebert. All rights reserved.

Tim Holmes ~ Tim Holmes Studio. A passionate artist with vision and an actionable mission consistently doing something with it for the good of the Self and the world. Hearing His Own Voice: A Life of Sculptor Tim Holmes. By Brian D’Ambrosio. Also, explore Tim’s Jung And Alive Meaning Finder.

The Alchemist’s Studio ~ Raku, vessels, Alchemy in action. Pottery with heart and soul PLUS some PUNitive humor to boot. Don’t miss the Hens! Another place of great perspective.

Charlescearl’s Weblog ~ Musings on fascinating things. Important and fascinating things well said. Charles not only thinks things through, he lives them through. You can feel it in his writing. Don’t go for the writing. Go for experience you will remember. Indelible is a word, and a good one with Charles’ weblog. Please share his recent Black in AI 2020 Call for Papers post to magnetize others who might not have otherwise been aware of the opportunity to advance the AI (Artificial Intelligence) community.

Author Melissa Crismon ~ Oceans of Love. Melissa is the author of the MerSea series about a conservationist mermaid. Painting in her mom’s studio, studying modern dance, and playing the pedal harp informed her childhood. A bachelor’s degree in visual and performing arts made sense. From angelic harpist to romance author, Melissa began writing as a theatre reviewer for local and online media.Her Golden-State-of-the-Art Blog started out as a California arts blog that covered a lot of theatre, but rolls with the punches and has expanded to the vegan lifestyle.

J. Gary Sparks ~ Jungian Analyst. Diplomate, C.G. Jung Institute, Zürich. Through his website he makes resources available for learning and teaching Jungian psychology at all levels. the link is to his wonderful welcome page, and you’ll find his Home Page link at the bottom of the Welcome page.

Martha Ann Kennedy’s Blog ~ I’m A Writer, Yes, I Am! Her recent post Through the Looking Glass from The Global Exclaimer is powerful and full-on apt about this racism disease going around more powerfully in this current time where the Civil War is like the EverReady Bunny just going and going and going — like it seethed under the surface for over a century, the internal war that never ended. About Martha: After thirty years teaching writing in San Diego, in 2014, I returned to live in my home state, Colorado. I live in the remote, beautiful and mysterious San Luis Valley.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Enjoy the DNA of our Solar System as it moves along its 230-million year orbit around our Milky Way galaxy. Credit to A.T. Mann for sending me this years back when he was a guest on my Inner State Highways internet TV show. Hmmm, I miss doing that. Well, I might want to do something about that…

This is such a cool creation about the larger creation we live our own orbits within, and looks like the DNA orbits within us as well. Go figure. Know thyself and know the universe just took on a simple tone as well.

Helix and DNA strands anyone? There’s such a wonderful Who let the dogs out? Us, our world and solar system itself in orbit.

The Parts Sandbox: The Golden Yod & Tarot Majors Individuation Engagement Prompters

The Parts Sandbox: The Golden Yod & Tarot Majors Individuation Engagement Prompters

To Engage Strength and Clarity With Your Natural Inner Animal Voice

To engage natural voice and open up a dialogue with your unconscious — which is very alive. We do need a new word for that. Some in the Professional Psychology community are on the hunt for one — Experience Dr. Becca Tarnas’ Participatory Imagination.

Today, or whenever you are visiting this, please bring your own imaginal yellow bucket and blue shovel to the liminal horizon sandbox, or your color choice, and/or Both-And the tools of your choice. Or, just yourself. That is often plenty. Oh, kick in a sense of adventure, too, as I like to hydrate these sessions rather than intellectually dry them out. No reason for Imagination Beef Jerky. Anyone have a Radio Flyer 90? If so, please bring it or them along, too. We might have some demolished materials to haul off to work clean without interference patterns in the sandbox playground of the psyche. I suggest to take several deep breaths, and as you move through this, please be conscious not to hold your breath. Keep yourself aspirated and hydrated.

The Land of Mystereum Majors Chorus OM-Hums Their Resonance To & For You

We are not You. You are not Us. Though, we are not separate.
We are connected and live in every synapse and interstice and space between so Psychic Synapses can bring things to bring beauty into relationship with beauty.
We live as Archetypes throughout the Universe, 
and within and through and through throughout You. 
You are only as comfortable with Us as you are balanced.
Engage Us like Parts in Brainspotting.
Where and how you look affects how you feel.
Engage Us. 
In Empathic Silence listen to whole-Self Be with Us.
We are your allies when you are your own,
when you own, honestly own You.
You live what you leave out.
What more of your Michelangelo’s marble
can you chip away and make leave
to make more of you seen,
not left out?
Light Ablution Pool Space at The Temple of Luxor at Karnak. Well, that’s what I’ve always called it. Photography credit goes to Photographer, is not one of mine.

O The Fool…

I am The Fool,
though there is no I Am or me in here.
I am not all the cards. They are each themself.
I simply individuate with The All and the small 
to become each card as they gestate and are reborn in each reading. 
Then, they shed me like
The snake its skin shedded, the snake its skin not missed.
A Part of the Divine All of Me remains,
from the original piece of The Divine that broke off in the Creation.
I remain For you as the Creative Principle. I am the liquid dark depths of air you breathe inside your Place of Creation.
There, I am no longer nameless. I am the fire and water 
of Sophia and Lilith to empower You to own and be responsible
for your power. 
Use the space between, that empty, though empathic Silence between things to amplify or simply respectfully observe with reverence how the space between brings them into relationship. In relationship with your surroundings, heighten your curiosity, deepen your wonderment.

My agency is not on a journey or the journey itself. My agency is not the number 0 (zero). 
It is the untouched O (circle) unsquared by influence or expectation, there as fuel for your expeditions. There simply to provide fresh perspective and quality to your continual becomings, your gestures of iterations, your fertile forays in continuous transformation and evolution. 
Yes, I am the vessel, container and contained at the same time. 
I am the unhatched eggshell and that life that burgeons within. 
I am cracked from within as the new life stops breathing water and turns to air, the unborn soul awakening once again.
Do I individuate to become each card along the way 
until we play with a full deck? In the no-knowing forgetting is for getting way, certainly!
Then, the fun begins.
The path to wholeness is lifelong. 

Is the the Fool is the unsquared circle card O to you? The zero card 0 To you? And Osho Zen emptiness and simply the Psychic Synapse of the space between? 
Personlly, I do not feel The Fool to be zero 0. It is O, the unsquared circle of the Alchemist full of infinite potential each time you strike a mark across to square it into a chord or dischord to resonate.
Is The Fool also The Other Card Back, sloughed and forming, sloughed and forming?
What’s your take on The Fool?

Opposites attract? Ahhhhh the song of the truly desperate.

~ John Cleese on Cheers way back when

What’s that do for syzygy? Hmmmmm… I gather syzygy doesn’t need much help to do its magnetically gravitational thing. Apogee Perigee Within and About… the EverReady Bunny of the Psyche?

I The Magician.
I inceive. 
Yes, now that is now a word as I brought it into being.
Formless, I 1st-spark the idea. 
I Am the Arche of Architecture.
I Am the inspiration or impetus. 
What do you inceive or incept today?
II The High Priestess. 
I conceive. 
I give form the the formless with that 1st spark. 
I Am the Techne of Architecture, the making, the putting together.
I Am that agency which gives form to the formless. 
What do you conceive today?
III The Empress. 
I carry conception to full term. 
I am the Yoniverse, that from which all emanates. 
Hey men, you, too! Get your Man-Womb on in your Place of Creation. Sophia Justice-balances the sacred place of the birth, my 4 supporting Queens and the Both~And in all of us stakes the 4 corners. 
What sacred space in place will you corner to establish to pour in... What conception do you carry to full term today?
IV The Emperor. 
I sit, 
powerful, 
comfortable. 
Silent, and without a word, I observe.
I oversee.
I trace the invisible property lines with my eyes,
the magical metes and bounds of identity 
in the realm of you 
that just emanated 
from the Yoniverse. 
My eyes are only moved by my heart. 
What do you In your power silently observe with established love today?

I heard. I sat unseated from my Silence. I experienced. I was better for my Silence.

~ The Emperor once The Land of Mystereum dandelioned into the world
V The Hierophant. 
I marry the spirit with the earth 
so the Archetypes’ out-of-wedlock Mag-HP~Empress~Emperor 
Place of Creation Man-Womb and Woman-Womb 
can continue to enjoy their sin, 
excuse me, creative life, to the fullest. 
I am the Heartfelt Silverback Gorilla Hierophant. 
No stubborn, unbending Traditionalists need apply. 
What magical energies will you marry into life
from your down-to-earth-Spirit Man-Womb/Woman-Womb
Place of Creation 
so they become real out here today 
for your and the world as a human community’s benefit? 
I am not indoctrinated anymore. 
I arrived before indoctrination was a glint in my Dad’s Eye.
Am I the Mote in God’s Eye? Yes. No. Both-And.
I was born in the future from the Soul Gardener 
where Death came as the Mother of Memory. 
My conception brings forth the conscious and fluid fluency confluence 
of the Infinite Arroyos 
of the past
and the future
to birth the perpetual present. 
Please live here. I do.
I have priorities and principles of chief value 
born of the wisdom of my experiences. 
What are your priorities and principles of chief value
that you bring or can begin to bring 
to actively and actionably live in your life today?
What are you doing with all this future
of your prescient remembrance in front of you,
Now?

VI The Lovers.

We paid for a larger font today as we are proud of each other. 
We love what we love. We indomitably love what we love.
We needn’t defend it. It is ours an none others’. We decide.
We make our own rules according to the dance of self with Self.
What way do you love that’s all yours 
that you own 
and take responsibility for 
and love today? 
(Odds are this is all yours and is a personal prompter for your consumption only to keep to yourself. Then again, you make the rules. 
Make time to forget form and action and results, 
like Nature did on this beautiful sunny Sunday afternoon. 
Make time to forget form and action and results 
to create a vessel of place filled with sacred space 
to recover just being in the world.
to Your Life, Your Way.
We suggest to not be all happy dappy all positive.
Heck, focus your Being on the negative, 
the angry, the hurt, the cracked, the broken Parts inside you... 
as when you turn to face them and engage In Silence
and only Empathically Listen to their rantras and ravings... 
you may find that they are the ones that need it the most.
As well, can you be a tree with strong roots that laughs at storms?
Do not laugh at their storm as a shaming behavior,
but with that inner laughter that is a closed mouth, temple-flexing, eye brightening inner smile as they go on and on. 
Make sure to toss the ad nauseum out of their ad infinitum.
With your patience not as waiting, 
but as the focused power of a glass top lake
with all the rambunctious life teeming below...
with that, engage. Reverently listen.
What happens when you do?
We did that this morning,
so we’re going to go have some more sex and then enjoy the sunny afternoon together and apart.
We tend to become besties with our beasties.
It often takes much time, 
and that is a currency we are glad to invest in each other
together.
What happens when you engage your beasties? Take care to allow no harm to be done to you. Heck, sometimes nothing great actually begins without a little controversy... to shake the tree and get the lead out and expose Your Inner Gold to heal stronger each day.

When you focus on the ‘good’ or ‘bad’ of your fellows, you make an opening in your heart for maliciousness to enter. Testing, competing with, and criticizing others weakens and defeats you.

Crystal clear, sharp and bright, the sacred sword allows no opening for evil to roost.

~ Morihei Ueshiba

And, by engaging your beasties, they can show you the door… to transform them into your allies once they bleed off the negs. Remember Pandora’s story, and her box. A better translation of the box is vessel. In the story of Pandora’s Box she opens the vessel and all the ills of the world fly out and escape. It goes on an on, a lifetime of on and Aion on. And, the story stops there, right? Nope, it doesn’t. And, consequently, like Lilith, Pandora gets a bad wrap. You see Lilith was the 1st to utter the ineffable name. In that action, by her choice, Lilith, made from the same mud as Adam, birthed consciousness. She was demonized as if in some bogus Biblical Tabloid entry.

Eve, not made from the same mud as Adam, was given form from one of Adam’s ribs. Was Eve more aligned or more complicit? I’ll leave that question out there.

Lilith transforms into a serpent, slither-sneaks back into Eden, and seduces Eve to make a choice as well… to bite the apple. POOF, history records the 2nd birth of consciousness as the 1st, and THANK GAWD, and perfection in matter and body goes away. Perfection is boring, and I am allergic to boredom.

So, now that I’ve given proper reverence to Lilith and a respectful bow and nod to her, and of course Sophia, I’ll circle back around to Pandora and her open vessel.

There comes a long pause after the flood of blackness leaves the vessel from the depths. It is quiet, almost silent but not. She is ducked down in front of the vessel on the floor as she allows her vessel itself to shield herself. She hears the faintest thoomp-thoomp. She puts her ear to the vessel. She cocks her head. thoomp-thoomp again. Her ear on the vessel wall. It feels rhythmic. She’s curious. She wonders, Dare I look? The black cat in her can’t resist.

She braces herself. She engaged her vessel which opened her vessel. She endured the Rantra stampede of flight in The Leaving, the liberation. Now, for the moment there is a peaceful calm… and the thoomp-thoomp. She feels the strong and gentle silence confide within confidence, no pushy and arrogant and hubris-poisoned assertion. Her curiosity and imagination are filled with wonderment. It’s so quiet, almost Silent. She

She embraces the lip of the vessel with her hands as a cornerstone. Wraps them strong, though not possession-tight. She begins to pull herself back up with her firm embrace. She slowly pulls herself up and over to peer into the vessel. What does she see? All the ills and negs and beasties are gone, for the moment at least as that/our vessel is infinite as the Universe is inside us. More are sure to come. What does she see?

A tiny, golden, fledgling, Yod-shaped feeling of hope.

~~~~ O ~~~~

Can you live 
at the confluence 
of the past and prescient remembrance future 
in the experience of the perpetual present.... 
Now? 

Can you own and take responsibility where shame is not even a word in your vocabulary? … much like the word guilt doesn’t exist in the Tibetan language. They have shame and remorse and resentment and regret… though, guilt, does not exist there. Whyever would one want to ingest and digest shame such that it becomes an internal Negative Rock of Gibraltar to bully us from the inside? Personally, I feel shame is a dumb thing to do. Are you a criminal? If so, turn yourself in. If not? Dispense with guilt, flip the turtle of shame on its back. Own your stuff, and there you go. There you go where you can inspire yourself like Pandora with the Parts of your story no one except yourself can tell you about. Know Thyself. 2 powerful words. If I could only take 2 words with me to a deserted island. Know Thyself. would be the two. Plus, I snUck in a single period there. Hope customs doesn’t relieve me of it, as then I’ll have a period toy to move around and 11 letters Trojan Horsed into the 2 words. Bet the airline will let me go carry-on. Hope I don’t lose them in the airport x-ray vessel.

Can You Rise

Can you rise above yourself and pluck that weed out like the Soul Gardener you are. Your naturalized perennials just might thank you for the added breathing room for their roots.

OOOO~OOOO

One’s roots much touch Hell for one to reach to Heaven.

C.G. Jung

OOOO~OOOO

Heaven and Religion are for people who do not want to go to Hell. Spirituality is for those of us who have already been there.

VII The Chariot.

I sidle up and sync from the side. 
What internal rhythms 
do you sidle up 
and sync your resonance with today? 
Can You ask Moira, 
the Astro Asteroid Goddess 
of internal time
help you?

VIII Justice.

It is. Your heart is. Your actions are. 
What activity and exercise 
will lighten your heart 
to tare your scale 
and balance you 
out today? 
You know, 
like RBG. 

I bet Maat 
had to get 
a new scale for 
RBG whose heart could fly.
No Maat judgment Mano y mano.
Feather 
partners 
feather.
RBG 
was 
the 
scale 
of 
Justice 
herself.
Maybe Maat actually just smiled, said, Thank You, Ruth,
and just waved her on in. You’re welcome, Maat heard in that moment. Both worlds are better places for RBG’s presence.

IX The Hermit.

I have hypervision. 
My inner light warms the places that are deep in darkness. 
Am I the white spot in the Yin-Yang? 
What will you do to illuminate dark depths 
to mine the splendor of your Inner Inheritances, 
to use your natural, emotional wisdom, 
and discover and integrate Inner Gold today?

X The Wheel.

1 word       I’m 
2 words.    going cycling 
3 words.    today always. Are 
4 words.    you going cycling today? 
5 words.    On a lark, in a 
6 words.    park, on a whim, or deep 
7 words.    within? How do you engage cycle today?
8 words     (Insert your words)
9 words     (Insert your words)
10 words.  (Insert your words)

XI Strength.

I have marshaled the forces of my natural, inner animal voice 
And married it with the clarity of refinement. 

The goal of words are to be like pouring clear water in a stream from a dear, recent email (sentence by Enrique Eniquez). 

That also Is like the gurgling water over rocks sound you hear when you play a tuned Steinway piano. Bliss of resonant vibrations on both.
What do you say today that is as clear as pouring clear water in a stream?

XII The Hanged Man.

 I am The Empress’ son, and together we are Tarot Birth Cards. 
You see, I continually am and continue to become enlightened 
as I am connected with my Place of Creation. 
Sometimes, full-on and total. 
Sometimes, just brilliant and welcome sunbeams 
that gleam to me through the leaves of my Tree. 
What lights you up today?

XIII Death.

I am the Mother of Memory and Nourisher of Dreams, 
and I reside in the past-future confluence 
that is the Birth-And-Death 
MindHeartBodyBeautiful of the perpetual present 
with a foot 
on both sides. 

I am the snake its skin shedded, 
the snake its skin not missed. 
For, look at the refreshed and vibrant new colors. 
I am the chaff blown off the wheat 
in the wind 
for you to nourish the life ingrained in you. 
What do you feel like today once you are free of something that’s run its course?

Death as the Both~And Mother of Memory and Nourisher of Dreams that confluence in the perpetual present.

What will we do with all this future have… Now?

XIV Temperance.

We are the magical mixing. Some call us the Mysterium Coniunctionus Because we, in our Latin way, hadn’t yet discovered “ j.” Some call us the Systema Monditotius. Some call us evolved Lovers of Self Knowing Thyself/Ourselves in reciprocal Justice. We powerfully listened when we approached the Oracle and internally experienced the words, Know Thyself. That struck chords to resonate in our heart, and we had a Chymical Wedding within each of us before we came together, with William Blake’s etching acid corrosive as our wedding planner helped us balance the Ph of our relationship to dial out the acidic and keep the corrosive as our corrective. Sarcasm anyone? Hmmm. Lotta words for the wise and time calm confidence of our Temperance. 
How is your balance magically mixed?

The snake’s skin shedded, the snake its skin not missed. Chaff blown from wheat in the wind. Our forgetting is for getting. It makes more breathing room for the good stuff. Can that be magnetic for you to pull in more good stuff?

~ Jordan Hoggard. Who’s that HierDood?

XV The Devil.

What are the power of your expectations in your focus rather than with blind spots? What innate intensities do you embrace? Are you aligned with your earthly desires, or do they take you into a state of imbalance where your strategies innately keep you there? I don’t ask you a question. Instead, I gift you the tool of freedom to feel your desires clearly. I suggest to explore them and strike your own balances as you do no harm.

XVI The Tower.

I am the Shaker-Upper. Uranus And Pluto are my Besties. And, with the Tower, we all go Rx (Retrograde) on you. We station. We plant. We emanate with all our power. Do you experience World-Altering experiences from the upsets we create? Do things fall through in ways to cascade what you‘ve built into oblivion? If so, when the marsh gasses of the pound turn over clear, do you feel relief, a Tabula Rasa of a restart? Or, when we do this, do you downshift to plant right along with us? Do you then instead feel a World-ALTARing experience? Have things then not fallen apart, though have fallen together for the first time in a way you are simply not familiar with? Do you feel grief or relief and/or both? Do YOU settle the dust in the focused power of patience by not stirring your pot and allowing it to settle where you Ghandi it out and wait for the dust to settle? How does your Tower work this time? How does your Tower work each time?

We each grieve differently, and we each grieve differently each time.

~ Jordan Hoggard

Trees with strong roots laugh at storms.

~ Malay Proverb

When the water is cloudy, will you stop stirring and powerfully listen? The wait for clarity can be an internal, Moira rhythm that is yours only. Know thyself, and it often relates to the All that is good for everyone. Taking care of You takes care of The All..

~ Me

XVII The Star.

I am your celestial groove. 
What is your celestial groove? 
What is your celestial groovy? 
Are you surfing yours with the clarity of your Inner Animal voice where proper Silences highlight and provide reverence 
to enhance your voice notes and the Golden Yods in between?

XVIII The Moon.

I am your Inner LUNAtic. Are you driving yourself crazy with anxiety, or do you outlaw anxiety from hijacking your fear from turning your fear, which is simply awareness, into being afraid? Isn’t your fear simply both primal and evolved awareness? 
Does your fear connect to your Inner Radar to blip and say DUCK and/or SWERVE and/or ENGAGE?

XIX The Sun.

I 
am who you were 
when you born, 
and maybe forgot? 
How can you be You, as only You can be?

XX Judgment.

Resurrection anyone? 
How do you move differently 
when your Inner Perennial Parts 
wake up and stretch after a long sleep?

XXI The World.

Isn’t the 9 of Pentacles 
the teeny Gaia card after the 7?

The 7 of Pents is what I call the Soul Gardener card.
Back to the dynamic verge point towards the 10 in the 9.
Though, the 10 would be the future to the 9,
so let’s dial back in to the present with 
The World and the 9 of Pentacles,
and put a couple of drops of your Golden Yod into them.
Roll it around to do a subtle flow mix,
maybe with as much focused balance as handling nitroglycerin in the movies.

With that in mind
Look into the Inner Obelisk Wormhole with a Golden Yod Heart
in the Land of Mystereum 9 of Pentacles
What more can you learn about about yourself from The World as you look up from inside the obelisk through the Cloister of Eternity. Are these the 2 Yin-Yang dots?
What message(s) do you get?

Thanks for the Sandbox Play Today!

Your Tarot Birth Cards for Oct 16th, 2020

Hanged Man ~ Empress

Excellent Birth Card Pair to continually embrace transformation in a very matter of fact manner. A crucial component of their reality is that they engage with inner contents and the unconscious in factual ways as easily as they interact with people at a get-together. Psychic and unconscious contents are simply more facts to go with what is out here. Even if these are not your Tarot Birth Cards, it can be a great exercise to explore them as if they were. See what new perspectives you can discover.

With The Hanged Man ~ Empress, Chariot style, what intensely natural, internal, transformative energies that oppose one another In their alchemy will you harmonize to harness for your Higher Good today and this weekend?

There is nothing in the caterpillar that tells you it‘s going to be a butterfly.

This Week

It’s a #3 day today, so enjoy the:

Mystereum Tarot Moment 3 of Pentacles

0 min 59 sec

and

2 min 17 sec

I say, Don’t waste trouble. Jodorowski’s Chariot said, I made a diamond from my misfortune. With Mindfulness in troubled times, how do you establish and/or embrace your established inner light to enhance and align with and in your natural transformation(s)? Is transformation one of the heartbeats of beauty?

One must still have chaos in oneself to be able to give birth to a dancing star.

My Friend Fred

I say Fred’s chaos = Nature itself, and one’s natural and immutable Nature of Self.

What messages do The Hanged Man ~ Empress gift you?

Tarot Voice Prompt Exercise

How do you express a fluid fluency with transformational energies in real time on the fly? Record yourself speaking about The Hanged Man ~ Empress. Close your eyes and play yourself back Afterwards. Listen deeply to your voice and what you hear even more than what you said. What do you hear. How do you feel to yourself? Do you hear anything new? What do the highs and lows of your voice tell you? What about the flow? Dance like you’re birthing a star, click record, and speak fluently like no one’s listening. Share what happens if you like. If you’re more visual, doodle like no one is watching.

Writing Prompt Exercise

Look out the window. Go Outside and look in the window… look into the window of yourself (Temple of You) for 0min 59’sec, and record yourself on your phone or a tape recorder again doing the above, or Morse Code, however you roll. Ask yourself: What transformations do I craft from the intense pressures in my life? How do you allow this inform your perspective? What will you do about it? Cogs are not less than. A cog functions under intense temperatures and pressures all the while engaging to gear in without slip. And, if it slips, it can often be re-tooled to be put back in place.

Recently

I’m full-on pleased that my article The Kintsukuroi of Self was published in Issue 35 of The Tarot Association’s Tarosophist International Magazine Equinox Issue. I’m stoked with the honor and the quality of their presentation. Thank you Marcus Katz and Tali Goodwin Charlotte and the Tarosophy Team! Note that the Tarosophist International Magazine is a members-only magazine with public print to resume soon.

Again, This Week, A Meditative Suggestion in Regards to This Week’s Music Selections

Rather than listen to the words as being from one person to another, or the artist to you or to another, will you allow the words to be yours spoken to you and your internal community? As if a play produced about you? Some of them may fall flat and not apply. Then again, some may spark something inside with this listening exercise. Dance along to your play if you feel to. Give it a go, and see what happens when you turn poetry/lyrics inward to speak to yourself as if they originated from you to you. I played with Silence this week, so the music is the same as last week’s. Listen or hop right over it with Silence and dig into the intensities in everyone’s blogs this week.

SVRCINA ~ Battlefield

Digital Daggers ~ Nothing’s Broken

Here We Go into Your Serendipity Itinerary for October 16th

Serendipity Itinerary Sites

There are excellent new posts this week! Think you’ve seen them before? Me, too. Then, there was this week. The vibe, like the world, is all over the place, to each their own. All similar, each unique. My image is splashing in the water. Just splash and splash and let the splash be… unless you’re in Oz or South Africa. Then, do that in a pool. I wouldn’t want you to hear dangerous cello music in the ocean. Du Nuh…

I suggest take 2 sites you are familiar with and revisit their current post(s). Then, I-Ching ’em and run your own Serendipity Itinerary to 2 that are new to you. Another great week. Prepare this month to not waste trouble Diamonds take some time it seems. The stars and planets are menacing only if you let them be. They are magical allies if you OWN them, especially when they are intense. How can you partner with your intensity to surf your own celestial grooves of transformation this week?. I suggest to not take shit from the stars this week. It’s YOUR world. Turn around and see where they are coming from. Your perspective might shift to your benefit as they partner with you, even if at odds. There’s still a relationship in that scenario as well. Breathe out and take out your broom to clean sweep anxiety out! Fear is like Inner Iolite, the Nordic Compass. Use it as awareness as your adaptability drives transformation. And, please do take care not to let anxiety hijack your Fear Awareness Radar Tool from you and jack it into being afraid. SHIELDS UP for the rest of the month! October 2020 Astro is quite a ride. Make it so! And, here’s a 3rd Astro link I value. Susan Miller, Rob Brezsny, and Verdarluz are three Astro voices I work with to complement mine as I Chart course.

Enchanted Seashells by Princess Rosebud ~ Beguiling pearls of wit, wisdom, and whimsy-with attitude. I’m not going to add more words to that. If that doesn’t grab you… A Princess is simply a Queen not yet sitting..

Dr. Eric Perry ~ Psychology to Motivate | Inspire | Uplift. Wonderfully full and relevant and engaged Psychology articles with clarity of voice. I full-on dig when things are as robust as they are clear, especially when directly dealing with intensities. This site, is certainly that.

The Dihedral ~ More than just climbing. A lot more. And, climbing is a lot in itself. Read a new route today at The Dihedral. Dammit! No, not wormsign. Worse. The covert Covid-19 struck again. Visit The Dihedral for a seriously wicked and wonderfully solid attitude of Not Wasting Trouble.

Cristian Mihai ~ Professional Blogger. Sense & Sensibility meets the info age? He’s not afraid to say it, whatever he says. No walking on eggshells here, well, unless he starts making compost for the garden. Excellent tips for bloggers and thinkers and feelers.

Susi Bocks ~ I Write Her. My words for Susi’s writing go something like this. You talk a good game, Dood, but can you (Susi) Bocks? Concise might even be too long a word. The consistency of depth here is… well, I have a deep respect for how much she does with so little and its never sparse. Muscular and powerful language. I’d call her the Bruce Lee of words.

Enjoy the DNA of our Solar System as it moves along its 230-million year orbit around our Milky Way galaxy. Credit to A.T. Mann for sending me this years back when he was a guest on my Inner State Highways internet TV show. Hmmm, I miss doing that. Well, I might want to do something about that…

This is such a cool creation about the larger creation we live our own orbits within, and looks like the DNA orbits within us as well. Go figure. Know thyself and know the universe just took on a simple tone as well.

Helix and DNA strands anyone? There’s such a wonderful Who let the dogs out? Us, our world and solar system itself in orbit.

Solar System & DNA
