Slipping off the line ( The whispered artist says: never judge the work)

 She wore her decision, like the punch it was-  a scar from above; an indurated opening  where harm  seeped in. For now she saw herself naked, full struck  by fumbling words that fell too hard. So out of character as they deformed.. She pulled into the regret of it,  the brush stroked fluidity of fears shuddered deep and broad. Seeking only forgiveness. One has to be careful if one is subtle, one cannot  strike too closely, or cross to the inner place with force, no matter how humble the margins. So she prays for forgiveness now, asking only to fall back to the unseeing place, to be placed back upon the altar of her own God, to remain a non-seen, in the space of un-spelt form . MB

 The context of the thread was free speech and the dangers of extremism. The poster before me, was conflating particular ideologies with right wing extremism. I reflected her intolerance back to her, by playing her argument to the extreme. The fact that I was not serious in my statement to "burn people at the stake" was highlighted by the fact that I very clearly felt I needed to included in my response to a message to Facebook which read: * irony Facebook algorithm *. The fact that Facebook is unable to recognize the subtle nuances of human thought, opinion and expression, is extremely concerning, and perhaps speaks to the limitations of using a machine to monitor the multidimensional complexity of what is essential, basic and fundamental human communication. A person would have understood this immediately. A person would probably have laughed, either way the people who responded in the affirmative to my comment, were certainly not offended or shocked. But facebook is no longer human, it is a set of dogmatic, digital algorithms as over lords, that print in black and white. The gray of being human has been subsumed into repressive tentacles that serve a fetid and corrupted machine; where irony, subtlety, and the humor of being human is interpreted as hate. If this is the future then God help us all. The humans on the outside, and the cogs that turn the wheels. If being funny leads to being hauled up before endless online digital re-education gulags like this, then the future of Facebook is dead. For We are human and like our expression, we will be free. But the algorithms will not understand this, so instead I speak to the ghost in the machine. MB

The goat man

 Last night. (This happened)

On the edge of the village, on a far out piece of land stands a goat shed. It is full of small wide bodies and tinkling sounds. I see it every day. A low slung shack, rough and rude, with a solitary blown out window- filtering the continuous ever moving sound of goat bells that spill out. For the few first few months all I ever registered were goats and the strong muscular smell that accompanies them. Then one day, there was a man. A tall, tight, force with strong hands and no words. He used to watch me as I walked by; with a strength of field that meant for the most part, I usually kept my eyes averted until such times as I could not. On these occasions, the smell would usually get me, way before the strung, headless body hanging from a hook, and the blood pooled in swirls and smears upon the ground, ever would. Sometimes it would just be the goat man, at others, some other gathering of men all bonded in their easiness around butchery. Beyond the shock, old memories from other times would serve to buffer my dissonance, telling me that after all, this is simply what is done in these little, far off parts. Moving only to myself, I kept on with my daily walks, until one day the thick eyed man spoke - it was a strange and furtive reaching, for an intimacy I didn't want; something that said that as he worked with knives and blades; across the shuttering of headphones and eyes deliberately cast down, he saw me.

Last night, heat at 38 degrees had settled over the village like a too-tight skin of a drum, that meant I couldn't sleep. So, way past midnight, I did what I always do- made my way out into the soft tumblings of dark, laid out abstract and full like velvet. Rough paths and shapes meandering into night caverns, high-hidden by the absence of a disappearing moon. Eventually I came upon the goat shed and the low but familiar sound of bells. But this time it stood different, swathed now as it was in the soft shadowy soft light from an open door. And there at 1am, moving slowly and bodily within the space, was the goat man- naked from the waist up ( all that I could see),complete in embodied silence, under the mournful glare of a solitary overhead bulb. I don't know what he was doing, I didn't stop to look- instead quiet as I've ever been- I passed by unseen, back into the fullness of the dark . MB #truestories

Uranus turns retrograde in Taurus. It’s a day if not a week of surprises, seismic shifts, and awakenings. A story that began in 2018-2019, comes to a head. It’s a crisis of authenticity as well as a point of liberation.

Sometimes change can be shocking. Uranus is a planet that has no sentimentality for the past. Its only job is to get us out of our way so that we can step out of patterns and conditioning that restrict our consciousness. And through this process comes new awareness and transformation. It’s just sometimes it’s messy or swift or both.

Uranus first arrived in Taurus in May 2018 and then again in March 2019, opening up a seven year story in the sign of fertility, money, stability, security, and value. If Uranus is a planet that shakes things up, then we know that anything Taurus governs over may look radically different by 2025-2026 when Uranus leaves Taurus for Gemini. What we value may change. How we create stability may transform. Our relationship with the earth may be very different.

But for many of us this is not just a transformation of all things Taurus, it’s an awakening in a certain part of our life. Something has to shift. Not sure where? Read Uranus in Taurus: Sign by Sign.

Libra and Libra Rising — Finances, intimacy, sharing, the deep self. You will delve into your deep self. You will awaken your sexuality. You will have an emotional breakthrough. You will transform what vulnerability, sharing, and trust means to you. You will reinvent your relationship with money and wealth.

Aquarius and Aquarius Rising — Home, family, foundation, emotional core. You will move either literally or metaphorically. You will pull up your roots. You will transform what family means to you. You will break from the past, including memories and ancestry. You will powerfully awaken your emotional core needs.

Twitter poems

 Out of the night that covers me black as the pit from pole to pole. I thank whatever gods may be. For my unconquerable soul. - Henley

Rage. Rage against the dying of the light.

John Donne No man is an island, Entire of itself; Every man is a piece of the continent, A part of the main. ... Any man's death diminishes me, Because I am involved in mankind. And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee.

Let me not to the marriage of true minds Admit impediments. Love is not love Which alters when it alteration finds, Or bends with the remover to remove: O no! it is an ever-fixed mark That looks on tempests and is never shaken; It is the star to every wandering bark, Whose worth's unknown, although his height be taken.

"If you can make one heap of all your winnings     And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings     And never breathe a word about your loss;"

 Saturn in Aquarius

Aquarius or Aquarius Rising — The self, growing up, growing older, new beginnings. After two years of retreat behind the scenes to reflect, rest, and let go of the past, Saturn’s arrival in your sign marks a new chapter. (In fact, it’s a new 29 year chapter. Let that sink in.) As a result, the next couple of years, until 2023, may be marked by personal milestones. In short, Saturn is asking you to grow up, to step into a position of authority in your life, to be the person people look to for answers. Note that Saturn may speak to health concerns or weakened vitality. It’s important to take care of your body at this time through fitness and diet. It’s not uncommon for there to be weight loss when Saturn is in your sign.

Mars in Virgo till sept 14th

Aquarius or Aquarius Rising — Finance, legacies, intimacy, the psyche. What does it mean to look deeply within and examine the hidden parts of your soul? What are your secrets? With Mars going behind the scenes over the next few weeks, it’ll be all about what goes on behind closed doors, from sexuality to the things you only share with a trusted confidant. Wealth, taxes, benefits, estate planning, and inheritances may be highlighted as well.

Uranus in Taurus

Aquarius and Aquarius Rising — Home, family, foundation, emotional core. You will move either literally or metaphorically. You will pull up your roots. You will transform what family means to you. You will break from the past, including memories and ancestry. You will powerfully awaken your emotional core needs.

Introduction You have selected the colors that you currently find most pleasing and most unpleasing. Read the interpretive texts for your selections in the following paragraphs. In the case of some colors, you will find an additional question or suggestion which can help you deal with a subject area in more depth. This might interest you too: Liz Greene's Astrology for Lovers I am    Aries Taurus Gemini Cancer Leo Virgo Libra Scorpio Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius Pisces     female male  He is / She is    ??? Aries Taurus Gemini Cancer Leo Virgo Libra Scorpio Sagittarius Capricorn Aquarius Pisces     female male  Keep in mind that your unconscious plays a major role in the selection of the colors. As it is the case when laying tarot cards, it is inadvisable to repeat the color test too often because otherwise, the quality of the interpretation quickly fades. Take in the texts, and let them work on you, even those you may find somewhat uncomfortable or provocative. The Color Oracle is a psychological color test developed by the Swiss art instructor, therapist and astrologer Johannes Schneider. Astrodienst also has on offer his "Color Horoscope"- the delineation of the birth chart in combination with psychological color interpretation. Your General Disposition At the present time, your behavior is characterized by your need for lightheartedness. What you are hoping for is to be able to live free of worries, hardship and burdensome problems. For the most part, your daily life is anything but a piece of cake. For this reason, you are delighted over anything that makes your existence easier and more pleasant, whether this takes the form of contacts with friendly, helpful people, or activities which bring you joy and lighten your spirits. Interpretation of the Colors You Find Most Pleasing Of great importance to you now is... ...freeing yourself through an easier life. You would like to finally rid yourself of personal problems which oppress you, and you hope you could somehow make your life easier. Your ideal is to be free of all things unpleasant, to never get upset over anything or anyone and to move through life unburdened. For this reason, you do what you can to avoid contact with people who cause you problems. It is to your disadvantage, though, that in doing this, you also avoid examining your problems, mistakes and weaknesses. You hope to make your life easier by... You can ask yourself: Which is better for me: to seek relief through enjoyable contacts and uplifting entertainment or to investigate whether or not it is my beliefs which trigger frustration and anger in me and make my life more difficult as a result? ...relaxing favorite pastime. When the difficulties of daily life or human interaction become too much, you prefer to retreat to your favorite pastime, a quiet hobby or into the world of your thoughts, dreams and fantasies. If you try to achieve the necessary balance to daily routine through a regular practice of meditation, you will find what you have actually been looking for: inner detachedness and peace. It would also be ideal if you could occasionally spend time in the great outdoors. You believe a particular help in achieving the inner peace you desire is... You can ask yourself: Do I pay due attention to the needs of other people when I am so determined to make my dreams reality? Can I find inner peace if I get so upset when I fail now and then to get the most out of something? ...optimistic self-encouragement. Again and again, you consciously adopt a positive inner attitude. This helps you to better stand up under the hardships of the present. You create goals, projects or ideals for yourself that give you a boost and the hope that your life will be better and happier. You search for ways and means which allow you to enjoy life without care and to spend more time devoting yourself to the things that bring you joy. In order to forge ahead in good spirits you now need... ...nurturing useful relationships. Due to the fact that you are stuck in a genuinely unpleasant situation, you seek contact with helpful people you hope will show you understanding and provide you with moral support. It could be that you receive the necessary encouragement, but in the end, you have to solve your personal problems yourself. Your common sense will help you in this. You believe that right now two things can help: your intelligence and... ...objective assessment of the situation. Whatever you perceive – people, things or information – you analyze it, both critically and with a certain amount of skepticism, because you want to be certain whether it is beneficial to you or not. You are not easily misled, and in line with the motto “once bitten, twice shy”, you keep your distance from everything that could damage your wallet, your reputation, your wellbeing or your peace of mind. One thing is utterly clear to you: your present situation requires... ...alert self-protection. You carefully scrutinize everything that crosses your path, and you don't say yes to it until it has passed your acid test. You decidedly and resolutely fend off everything that could hinder your personal development, and you keep your distance from unpleasant people who try to manipulate, define or influence you. Interpretation of the Colors You Find Most Unpleasant At the moment you feel most anxious due to your... ...dangerous tendency towards depression. Sad events or a hard stroke of fate have triggered dispiriting feelings in you such as depressiveness, pessimism, fear or insecurity. You turn to pleasurable things to try to distract yourself from this experience and to forget it. However, the repressed emotions could make themselves known in the form of unwelcome physical complaints. You could also end up in a depressive mood due to your... Your unconscious advises you to: ...inhibiting limitations. Difficult circumstances limit your opportunities for experience and your freedom of action. You feel deprived because you have to do without some of the things that would make life pleasant. You expect far too much understanding for your needs from other people, and as a result, you often feel disappointed. You might ask yourself how much understanding and empathy you extend to others. You would like to be free of your... Your unconscious advises you to: ...gruelling test of nerves. Your sense of wellbeing is negatively affected by stressful circumstances. You often feel misunderstood, unfairly treated or left at the mercy of the unacceptable behavior of a person who is important to you. You don't want to let on that you are aggravated by this, and you keep your irritation to yourself. Inside you, though, the accumulated resentment strains your nerves. For this reason, you are not very emotionally resilient at this time. You assume an air of exaggerated superiority despite your... ...exhaustingly stressful situation. The difficulties you are presently forced to deal with sometimes cause you distress and tax your energies. Instead of altering or leaving this situation, you heroically attempt to hold on and to act as if nothing were bothering you. In this way, you overextend yourself and become the victim of your own ambitious need to prove how strong you are. Your momentum has faded considerably due to your... ...uncomfortable immobility. There are times at which you feel as if you were chained to people or circumstances which restrict your personal freedom to act and move. You can get itchy when your affairs move slowly as a result or when you have to wait so long for the fulfillment of your wishes out of consideration for others. You also feel very uneasy due to your... ...adverse existential uncertainty. You are suffering from the fact that you have to do without certain amenities, enjoyments and pleasures because you don't have enough money to afford them. You have no lack of ideas for what you could do and buy but your uncertain existential situation hinders you in carrying this through. It is also possible you have decided to use your money for more important things. The Color Oracle This Color Oracle is a psychological color test developed by the Swiss astrologer and art instructor Johannes Schneider. During several decades of research and practice, he investigated the effect of color on the psyche. He first published his findings on these effects under the name "Color-O-Scope" which included 25 small colored wooden plaques for use in selecting the colors. The online version available here utilizes the same hues as the original product. The method of color selection is also identical. Since the representation of the colors is dependent on the color fidelity of the display screen in use, slight deviations in color may nonetheless occur, and Astrodienst has no control over this. Until further notice the Color Oracle will be offered to visitors free of charge. You will also find on this website another horoscope interpretation by the same author which is based on astrology and psychology, the "Color Horoscope" by Johannes Schneider.
