Themes
Here we go for President’s Day….
https://youtu.be/BDAa-8YIjNc?si=Y8QujtIgplbJ3TS2
(not our president’s day…
the response is to invoke all the ancestral Presidents etc….)
and absolutely watch the movie “Flow”
I synchronously happened upon it (HBO etc)…. (it turned itself on mid-way through….completely mesmerizing ….So then I watched it from the beginning… and then I watched twice more, as anti-dote to news.”
so good for now….
Because — real danger is here….
Sun sesquiquadrate to Mars retro-stationing in Cancer…both awareness of the gravity, and a call to us all
to be protectors…..
Let’s all say :
“We escaped the Inquisition many times, in its myriad forms, and we’ve picked up some liberating tricks along the way…”
“Trickster is lucky if enough conmen show up to school her.” (Lewis Hyde)
(and love the etymology of “escape”is “to leave one’s cape behind. exit cape.”
Let’s be escapade escape artists….
Participatory guiding
for this dark opportune week unfurling before us….
description and guiding….
Here be the Intelligences in play –
and here be the choreography- Flora Fauna Fungi are encouraging us to re-join the dance…….
Let us not be provoked into reactive polarity,
(on which tyranny feeds)
but let us dedicate to being always available to the responsive liberating spiral….
the Jupiter – Neptune quintile,
spiraling forth eloquent blessing, opens portals between worlds…
and playing the jest of revelation
“DOGE = Destruction of Government by Elon.”
The Sun,
29+ final degree of Aquarius -whose Sabian is the haunting atmospherically good spooky…. “strange white flowers are blooming in the midnight ruins of Babylon.”
Mars retro guides us to go back into history….
Sun enters Pisces tomorrow… the date of Leonard Peltier’s release to the loving embrace of kin- Flora Fauna Fungi….
One of our tasks tonight…
“Thomas More: …And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned around on you–where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat? d’you really think you could stand upright in the winds that would blow then? ”
