It's fine for them Samantha, but not for us... we're quicksilver, a fleeting shadow, a distant sound. Our home has no boundaries through which we cannot pass- we live in music, in a flash of colour- we live on the wind, 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘴𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘭𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘢 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳...

btw... Jupiter is in stillness to go retrograde in around 4h

Saturn stations direct in around 2 weeks and starts heading out of Pisces for the last time until around 28 years from now (probably I won't be alive for that one)

Mercury stationed a couple of days ago, will be rx for around 18 days

Touching hands are not like pharmaceuticals or scalpels. They are like flashlights in a darkened room. The medicine they administer is self-awareness. And for many of our painful conditions, this is the aid that is most urgently needed.

Forms within the universe, whether galaxies, human beings or trees, are generated as an expression of vast forces at work within a holistic framework. Separateness, fragmentation, and disconnection are all illusions [… ]

There is something in the human spirit that will survive and prevail, there is a tiny and brilliant light burning in the heart of man that will not go out no matter how dark the world becomes.

Modern mass culture, aimed at the "consumer", the civilisation of prosthetics, is crippling people's souls, setting up barriers between man and the crucial questions of his existence, his consciousness of himself as a spiritual being.

btw in case it wasn't clear, my posts about love and marriage tonight have nothing to do with the (good) news from the USA's SCOTUS

I'm glad that insufferable woman lost at her attempt to become relevant again

I am not US centric, I don't live there, and my posts are 99% not about the USA.

In the beginning, there’s a blank mind. Then that mind gets an idea in it, and the trouble begins, because the mind mistakes the idea for the world.

Every path begins as a rumour,
a quiet suggestion in the earth,
that someone once believed in that direction.

Empathy means realizing no trauma has discrete edges. Trauma bleeds. Out of wounds and across boundaries. Sadness becomes a seizure. Empathy demands another kind of porousness in response … Empathy comes from the Greek empatheia—em (into) and pathos (feeling)—a penetration, a kind of travel.

One night I dreamed of such a world. I rowed upon the surface of the moon and there was no wind, there were no moments, for the moon is as empty as the inside of an eye and not even the sound of a shadow falling falls there.
