here be this, so beautiful poem, written on eclipse, my birthday,

Jon Carling 

Our 7th convening of Dream the News…by understanding the News, as a Dream…
translates us into the effective participatory realm, where we be cultivating our metaphoric agility…

(Encouraging all to communicate what has been nourishing in our council, what you might like more of, or less, and if game to continue, 
in a few weeks… perhaps next 7 would be Nov. 14th -Dec 26th… We/You all are the responsive guiding augury….)

I Ching:

for us, and world
“38. Diverging/the Shadow Lands

“discord, strange meetings with hidden spirits, the ghost worlds;
change conflict to creative tension through awareness;
a seed figure…

“turning away
Outside the dwelling, exposed to the night, 
Diverging points at a bright presence in the night sky, the star mansions of the Ghost Cart, that presides over punishments, executions and dire fates…
It suggests Autumn…

Saturn overhead,
Jupiter rising
Neptune betwixt,
Uranus rising…
We honor these beings within and without….

and our  whole splendiferous chart…
!5+ Gemini rising – rousing speech on behalf of the Earth,
indeed – the Earth herself, has quite alot of rousing to say….

The weather was at first inhospitable to ground war attack….
Let’s work weather magic…
and the gates of Winter are closing.
the Demon Country, of strange visions, alternate realities and chance meetings with important spirit beings,
difficult journey, traveling in alternate realities…
This is the world of the Wugui, Intermediaries who deal with angry ghosts…

transforming the negative power of the ghost world unto a creative tension with the living…
This is the tis of the wandering sage, who voyages outside the norms, the wugui…

change potential conflict into dynamic tension…

The solution to the conflict is inherent in the situation.
When the way of dwelling together is exhausted – turn away……
acquire the center and connect with what is string and solid……
a time of connecting with what is great…”

Washington, DC | www.adc.org | October 17, 2023 – The American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) is outraged and horrified at Israel’s targeted bombing of Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza. Over 1,000 Palestinians have already been reported as killed, and hundreds more have been injured. Hospitals in Gaza have already struggled with lack of medicine, medical equipment and other resources since Israel started its indiscriminate bombardment of Gaza, a catastrophe further exacerbated by Israel cutting off  food, water and electricity. Targeting hospitals is the lowest form of depravity and crimes against humanity. Israel attacked the sick and injured, newborn infants, and families seeking refuge. 

The lack of accountability for Israel’s crimes for over 75 years has empowered Israel not only to occupy, collectively punish and kill besieged people, but also to bomb hospitals with total impunity. 

President Biden must call for an immediate ceasefire, stop funding and arming Israel and, once and for all, hold them accountable.
