symbols of the moment |

lol-laughing out loud- at the symbols for the last post. being rescued - yes, that's all fine and well.. having a playground for a couple of days is usually nice; its the connection between effervescence and escapism that made me laugh. i can relate to that. i'm running with the idea of "what do i need to complete where i am" .. i can enumerate that. and some of the items i just refuse to touch because i'm not sure if an abort is required of if an exit condition exists. bummer that. its good to shake up stuff like that every now and then.
fwiw, *I* really appreciate having the symbols related to each post right there. i dont know if its just that i basically know almost all of them from many years of using Dane Rhudhyar's version of them. I appreciate seeing new images.. and i appreciate the synchronicities they document. yes, i can consistently 'make up something' to relate the images evoked by the symbols to my life. if you find yourself looking at them and 'getting' a bigger picture, let me know! you can use the planetary symbols in Daily Symbols to get a readout on the day. | ||

trancedance notes, friday night |

yup, the workshop is really going to be good. Wilbert Alix knows the space well and has the room in awe. this event is in the form of a vision quest and he's had us sit in a circle by age to generically look at the transitions in life that we must make at different ages so that we can trick ourselves into assessing the things that we need to complete to have the next step.
his language is tangible and he swims in a sea of know how on neo-shamanism.. his distinguishes shamanism from meditation by making the point that it is about overload to get to neutral whereas meditation is more about going directly to neutral. indulgence vs abstinence. i dont quite experience transitioning that way, but this sells and holds together well. one funny thing only. it is rare that there are no 'funny things' in people's spiel's. fewer the less spiel. and i'm glad to know people where there's never been any 'funny'.. but i digress.. he made the point that you can live for weeks without food, days without water, minutes without air.. well, not that succinctly, but essentially. leaving out.. and actually sort of denying.. that you dont even live seconds if you stop producing heat. to this day there's a bit of confusion about 'fire' as opposed to 'air', but no matter, breathing is good.. even though the intent and energetic focus have to come first.. there'll be 8hr of him tomorrow, first a lecture on connecting to the body.. and then his dj-ing. its almost worth running out to get an hr recorder just to get the gist of the mix. i'm 8th youngest. there's one woman, a year older that i like, but she's attached. i know one other person. dinner's ready. | ||

i wrote this imageswitcher for my dojo buddy randall. he's selling sliced panax ginseng root cured in linden honey. neat stuff. have him send you a sample. this shows his product on the home page. three pictures in one spot.

calendar enhanced |
|
|
i added some code to the calendar so that it renders days with 'day contents' in bold with links alternating between, say, 05.html and 05/index.html
with this new 'spot' available in my blog i can store stories for the day with its media inside the main and category trees without actually having to 'post a new story'. so far just the rendering is worked out and i have to put a handmade #prefs.txt file into the directories.. but i can see how to make this ever more automatic as i start coming into the '+' with this feature :) | ||

weekend getaway |

hallelujah! the weekend's here, i've got 6 hours to tend my blog, do laundry.. get ready for a weekend workshop in trance-dancing. there's a bunch of germans involved in the thing and i get a really good feel from it. it will be nice to meet new people too.
hedonism is a good thing so i picked this and ax'd HAI 'level 6'. these started to feel masky and not rewarding. i barely feel pulled back, yet there's a tinge of guilt about not seeing some of the l5 people. maybe i'll make some phone calls. perfect. I'll be happy with the dancing. and closer to finding a drumming circle here. engaging/Shamanic work, coding/modelling, describing/mirroring. yum. | ||
