Keeping Your Eye On the Fuzzy Ball
June 17, 2009
I wrote recently about tennis and my friend-in-waiting - Rajah. In the
ethers, Roger Federer heard me. I've wanted him to break through, to
get good and mad, on the way to being himself. Some weeks ago he melted
down in a losing match, smashing his racket and not shaking the
umpire's hand. Bravo dude. Then, after he brinked to within five points
of losing a match mid-way through the French Open, he turned it all
around, won, and really did say after the match: he now feels like
himself!
Fed went on to win the whole thing in Paris, thereby relieving himself
of enormous historical and personal pressure. He'll now play with an
even finer edge while being more formidable than ever before. Though
he's tied Sampras for the most Slam wins, and joined with Agassi to be
the only other player to win all four of the Grand Slams on three
different surfaces, his best days are yet ahead of him. His game has an
elegance that makes him the greatest of all time. That's how I see it.
I just did extensive research about the competition in the modern era.
I like the way Roger stands amongst them all. Bud Collins thinks the
competition isn't as tough as some other eras. That may be true at the
top; it's arguable. But from the first round on, all the way through
the draw, and with Rafa Nadal in potent battle with him, Roger has been
through an incredible field of players, including Sampras and Agassi.
He's shown that his precision and brilliance are par excellence bar
none. Laver says you can't compare eras. That's true. But I say you can
name the best.
My list goes: Federer, Laver, Sampras, Borg, Gonzales, Emerson, Nadal
(with a bullet), Connors, Lendl, and tied for tenth:
Agassi/MacEnroe/Tilden/Rosewall. For number eleven...... Margaret Court
Smith/Stephanie Graf/Martina Navratilova/Chris Evert. Those ladies
really had the yestrogen goin' on; magnificent, potent champions they
are. Also, for sheer awesomeness in all manner of factors contributing
to the world through tennis: Mo Connolly, Yvonne Goolagong Crawley,
Serena Williams, Billy Jean King, Arthur Ashe, Monica Seles, Helen
Wills Moody, Althea Gibson, Agassi and Gonzales again, Jack Kramer,
Henri Lacoste, Harry Hopman, and non-player historian and bon vivant:
Bud Collins. It's no dice for this opinionator; fuzzy balls go on my
rearview mirror.
The other week I wrote of Conan O'Brien taking over the Tonight Show. I
watched, a bit, and another bit. It's just bits, no real hosting of the
knightly psyche. I say he's a vapid loser. Jimmy Fallon would be
better, but he's mostly a child. So was Johnny, if you know what I
mean. I don't hold out much hope for this format. Let it die, I say.
When Letterman is gone, when the Letterman goes postal, that'll be it.
I don't see anyone else holding it. The world died around them, and
they couldn't keep it up.
I've come to realize that Lorne Michaels has been a kind of plague.
He's the Saturday Night Live founder cum mega producer of comedy
programming. Ugh. Can't we find some more interesting people, people?
Television would be so lively if people took risks to tell a vision, to
host by being with people, to stop beating the dread course with a
schtick all too familiar and dull.
I'd still love to offer my services. How about an astrologer
interviewing folks with great humor and depth, and not babbling a bunch
of starjargon? I'd lead with deep listening while having plenty to say
across myriad areas of life, inside and outside. Stories and karma are
the same thing. We like to listen and tell them. I could present. I
could re-present. Well, whackadoo.....
Letterman is now on some inane shit list because Governor Palin is
already campaigning, and she found a way to nail David to the pedophile
cross or some silliness. I saw his jokes about her upgrading her slutty
flight attendant look and about Alex Rodriguez making babies with
Palin's daughter during a Yankees game. The staff forgot to vet which
daughter was at the game. The joke was meant to be about the 18 year
old out of wedlock number one daughter. Instead, the 14 year old was
there, and it sounded funny, in a not quite funny haha way, for some
ears. The Governor now calls Dave a dirty old man. He apologized.
Letterman has enough karmic residue after twenty plus years of foolery.
I reckon it caught up with him. I think Palin is worth skewering. She's
got that born again fundamental high gloss lying thing going on:
righteous denial. Dave is an admitted fool and ass. She speaks with
forking tongue. One of her main pitches is that she doesn't take
federal money, she's no bail out betty. Alaska has alllllways been
nothing but federal money. Let's give it and her back to the Russians,
and she can work her Christian magic on them heathens. The proof'll be
in the Putin.
Lately, boys' and girls' relationships have been under strain as Venus
and Mars cruise in parallel. The economy takes it's toll, but it's been
deeper than that. Really, it's been turf being burned off. Men and
women usually live in unconscious turfdoms, which don't work for being
together, but do work for doing role together.
Doing each other is really unsatisfying. America seems to be especially
full of it, with noted exceptions. Caesar divided and conquered the
family, and the wedlings, ferociously in the last two thousand years,
Church included. They put the pedestal to the mettle in order to
control the consumer unit called family. Gay marriage rocks this
boatload of shit. Something like forty per cent of kids are born out of
marriage now. Turf of the serfs is dismantling. To boot, almost a
quarter of new births in America are Hispanic. One way or another, that
which was fixed is in the mix. Culture wars follow.
Let love happen rather than fearworship it. Being, being together, is
what is viable and delightful. Compatibility is way over rated. Being
together trumps sharing your favorite color. Variety is the spice of
life. Men and women....... a couple of wild combo, is inherently
incomparable and incompatible, in a wondrous crazy way. Gayville
doesn't know what it's like to have your brains and crotches be aligned
differently. That's why Gay folks have so much variety in their ways of
life. They bring more spice to the enchilada that way. Any way is fine
and dandy.
Gayness, loving your own kind kindly!!!!!, is so very important
culturally and personally. This is the fortieth anniversary of
Stonewall, the event that blasted open Gay rights, when gay men rioted
violently in Manhattan. I was a young man in Ann Arbor, Michigan a
couple of years after that. It was a way Gay active town and it was
wonderful. I remember one huge, bushy bearded, brilliant man who
dressed in a dress and promenaded about town with terrific humor and
courage and street theater, for years. Bless him. Those men died for
our sins in the wave of AIDS to come a decade or so later.
In those years, after the blues clubs closed down, I went to last call
regularly in a gay bar called The Flame. Vladimir Horowitz came through
when he was in town to play. It was wonderama. Really great men of all
sorts dwelt there. I love being with people that are being. Gay people
are pioneers in that way. They've got oodles of neurosis just like we
all do. They suffer from sheer oppression. I support them and salute
them. They've been my dear friends.
I've had plenty of gay and lesbian clients. The stories I've heard and
seen..... I'm an advocate for women especially, and for gay folks as
well. If you can't love and be with your own kind kindly, how the hell
are ya ever gonna get peace? When I first became an astrologer 32 years
ago, I saw that gayness would be a linchpin issue for many years to
come.
It really got roiled up when Pluto was in Sagittarius. Brotherhood and
sisterhood are full on now. They, we, will not be split! It seems that
the splits in the culture will be oozing woundfully for many years yet.
The madness in fundamentalist denial religion is massive. The Church
was the State for the longest time. That shit must be purged. Out with
the lords and out with the Lord, and let's Out the lords and the Lord,
for chrissake!
Some months back, two eleven year old boys, unbeknownst to each other,
committed suicide because they were being relentlessly taunted at
school about being Gay. They likely were not, but they karmically stood
in for those that are so arranged. One dear and articulate mother spoke
so clearly of her grief. She was the real deal.
It is time for this to stop. These youngin's have been retrograding
into the dumbshit toilet. Fuck indigo rainbow whatever. This bunch has
really dropped the ball. Generations stand together. Boomers, of which
I'm a defacto member, are a whacky bunch, but we brought equal rights
forward..... really forward. We paid some heavy prices for that. It
doesn't end. But the later generations gotta pick it up and bring it
forward.
I have many amazing young clients. They are fine, really fine. But
their peers suck. This shit has got to stop. I find young people
getting stupider and stupider. Literally today, some dumb study came
out and said that over fifty per cent of people can't point to the
heart in a human anatomy picture. They can't find their Heart! Wake up.
Take it to the streets. Crikey!!! Or Wii shall overcome......
Grief and grievance continue to be grinding up from the darkest depths.
Express and unsurpress. Be conscious and let be. Don't hurt. Unhurt.
There's lotsa crud. It is time for it to come out. We've all been
through some really tough shit. Now wipe and flush. Voila!
Communicate and connect with folks. Play outside the box, if you have
any box left. As best you can, don't box, don't fight. Express and
share. The inner heat is magmatic. Explosions will be happening. Damage
follows. Carnage leads the ignorant way. Things are getting out of
hand. So handle your baggage, unload, and hold the hands of those who
are near and dear to you. Enjoy your share faire. Enjoy your wonderful
self and their wonderful self. Time has come to be together. It's the
true promise of Aquarius if you undivide and unconquer.
Peace be what you are.
In the Department of Clouded Judgment Department...... Weather people
don't know whether the weather's recently observed dark and undulating
cloud forms form a new category of cumulus, or whether the cumulative
experience of weathered meteorologists round the world know whither
they goest..... altocumulusly. This storm und drang has become the
hottest topic since the unFahrenheit appearance of the Celsiustine
profligacy. Isn't it apparent, in our Revelationary times, that we do
indeed need a weatherperson to know which way the wind doth blow? The
sky's the limit, in an Armageddon kind of way, on these foreboded
alchemtrails. Tis the itsy bitsy rain drops Golgathaering for the
fecund coming, the Do Point, The End of Humidity!!! A real
Dopplerganger approacheth..... Stay attuned.
Following the Solstice on 6/20, Venus and Mars conjunct in Taurus on
Father's Day 6/21 while trining to Saturn in Virgo. This bodes well.
Isn't it about time for some well boding!?! The Dude and Dudette have
been cruising together for weeks, which has made it rather difficult to
discern inside from outside. We now have proper perspective to realize
that there is no inside/outside. It has all melted. Not into One. Not
into None. Just melted. The result: peace of being.
Let it be so, or forever hold your pieces..... and juggle
body/mind/soul, goodday/badday, heaven/hell/earth, winside/won'tside,
uppity/downily, for better/worser, 'til dearth doth ye parse.
If you can't take it anymore, give it the reboot. Resettle in your
ways, and drop the High ways and the Buy ways. ReChoice ye of maximum
faith. Unbelieve it and unknot, and get rippley. Smooth sailing is long
gone. The stormy troupers are plying great dramas. Don't buy that
shift. Be and play, with a little peace of your heart. The gravy got
wavy, the souper went off the boil, we are out of the flying panic and
into the fryer. Let what is not you cook, off. All that is left is your
being, and that's all you've ever been seeking. The colliderscope's
dualing bardos can be let go. Just be, and play with Trinity in your
Neo way that is unwon, unbeaten, unmatrixed.
Keep your eye on the fuzzy ball. These daze have a stigmatism. They are
Endful at the Mourning of a New Daze. Dystractionated vision is to be
expected. You will not know where you go. You are choosing as you go.
Sight unseen is not the turning blind i. You are realizing your being
in a dreamscape. No big deal. Very big Wheel. No big deal. Angst eyeity
is inevitable right now. Seeing is believing, and that's the problem.
It's whirry.
Unsee and feel, consciously. Shake a stick at it. Tap your outer
resources. Stevedore in the Wonder. Chop woulds and clarify whatever.
The Path is pasth. The future is futilated. Sky walking is Coyotelike
and wily. You stand on nothing, having gone over the cliff. Meep meep.
Give up on the road running.
You are not Becoming. You are coming to be.
Yours fully,
Mark

What are we, Madoff?
June 10, 2009
The $ was originally symbolized with two vertical lines. It is the caduceus of money, representing the forked tongue of the finance doctors. One hand is meant to not know what the other hand is doing, a sort of blind injustice. Peter takes from pall, in one era and out the other, until dearth doth us parse. In bucks we trust, in God we rust. For a few pieces of silver, betrayal as a way of life......
What are we, Madoff? Perhaps Bernie's mountin' dogs that bank Swissfully in the hunt for the holey cheeses. What hath Gotham wrought? Dough unto others as others dough unto you 'til we break bread in our crumby little livelihoods......
We have communed in the Capital idea. We listened to the Profit and praised Alla that we have. We ploughed our funds in harrowing acts of seedy investiture, loping for the best, onwards ever onwards to the port of gold at the end of the brainbow. And what lessen did we earn?
Saint Bernard Madoff with our whiskeyed keg as we floundered in our snowed jobs, for oh one cay, one island in a scheduled sea, to untax our burden, working it out by deduction. But alas and a lack, we won the daze, like dollareds bucked again, crying in our bier. Our lives are spent. And, we had to give them credit for that?
Plummeting planes, this collapsing of the dimensions as I wrote about in my Book of Metatronomy, are the emblem of our currency, our times divided by the multiplication of the additive value of subtractive, extractive thinking unequaled in the greedhilism of something for nothing. As thee crusheth, so shall ye be crushed.
There's an excellent article on Madoff in April '09 Vanity Fair. The author really got around and heard the stories. The sociopathy of Bernie is quite amazing. The closer he got to people, the more he ripped them off. He was doing it 48 hours before he confessed and was busted. Guess what? His parents ran a scam and denied all the way as well. Pattern follows pattern. I reckon old Bernie was just trying to resolve the psychopathy of all that. The fruit rots near the tree as well.
Madoff is a symbol of our time, including his ironic name. Easy money came and easy money went. The linchpin in his system was everyone's inherent greed and his ability to manipulate. Capitalism has big time see no evil ignorances normatized into it. This is what finally got everyone. Bernie ripped them off by taking all their eggs into his hidden magic basket. He Ponzied it for so long, decades, because he kept exclusivity and secret powers stringing everyone along. He'd been "investigated" a number of times and they'd give him a clean bill of blind eye health. Money talks, fools listen.
The super rich are built upon super rip off. It's taboo to say so. They still string up commies one way or another. But the premise of Capital over Labor sucks, in my opinion. It is such a collective trance, such a sold commodity, such a religious tenet of society such that it's almost unallowable to talk about. Wealth takes advantage of the commonweal by stealing from Gaia and from human toil and dignity. I curse it to the hell from which it originates from.
I'm for wellth. Wellth arises from being with things as they are and playing with them in full expression and communication. No big deal. NO BIG DEALS! Wellth is the meek that inherits the Earth, whatever is left. I'll write more in the future about such visions.
The VF article spoke of something like affinity fraud, wherein you steal from circles you are closest to. In Madoff's case, he hit heavily into tight Jewish communities and charities. He stole from his own kind. Con games are confidence games and Bernie really knew how to keep and sell a confidence. That's why all these smart, financially savvy people were stolen blind.
Bernie Madoff's chart includes Sun/Uranus conjunct in Taurus. The guy was brilliant at making money. He gets five stars. Doesn't everybody want their money to make money? Bernie wanted their money to make money, and it did, for them and him. It's just that the crazy leveraged switcheroo deal got margin called. So did all those investment banks and such. What's the difference? Not much. That's the point.
This notion of money making money, easy money, is up for review. I doubt that much will finally be undone about it. If it is ignored, it'll fester faster than a festooned fetal fest of fickle financial fecal fun. There's sooooo much debt all over the place. So much so that debt will have to be parsed to its basic premise. Also in the April VF there's a fabulous article on Iceland's monied mania. It's all soooo astonishing. They Madoffed with the bucks and the bucks now make off with their lives and country. Really, really astonishing.
On thing important to point to with Bernie Madoff and his ripping off of his fellow Jewish compatriots. This is internalized oppression. Historically Christendom condemned usury as the devil's work. The devil's work is oh so popular, so it thrived. But Jews were assigned by the powers that were to be the designated usurers, plus they were open for biz on JC sabbath. Such a deal!
As a result, Jews got really good at usury over two thousand years.
Regularly, wherever they were diasporaed to, where they settled and prospered clan/destinedly, they were then attacked so that their riches could be sacked. Blame if you do, blame if you don't. If Jews had just specialized in gefilte fish, there would have been nooooo problemo. And that's not their fault.
All of this must be faced. Jews are still endlessly vilified for jewing others. Has whitey, has christened whitey incorporated, ever chewed others out of their moolah??? You can bank on that. The Templars finally got jiggy with the jew giggy, or something. Anyway, Jews are blamed for what they were conditioned to, and that got internalized so that finally Jew eats Jew in the Madoff scheme.
All manner of unconscious patterns are being outed during End times.
You can see the end of the projections. Maybe we all ought to reconsider usury and gambling and capitalism and its place in our once and future lives. The only true whores are the capitalists with their come ons for a better life by denying the other life. Jews didn't start it and they don't own it. It's the oldest profession in the Book. Now, let's hear the confession. Down with Wealth. May Wellth abide. No more Prophets and no more profits. I don't know how we'll do it. I can see how we'll undo it. We'll be and play through it for the simple prospering of life as life, and nothing more.
Bernie Madoff is an icon of us. That's all. He's suffering and so are we. Let's be conscious in all of this.
Air France lost a load of folks in the middle of the Atlantic. This one is quite the mystery. The planes are falling in every way..... Heaven goes to hell. The Fall goeth before the Pride. The gravity of what goes up.... is being realized. What we are seeing are effects represented by Jupiter/Neptune conjunct. It's defining this summer. Strange things are only beginning. The angels on the wings may be departing like honeybees. We have mocked the miracle....... We've thought we were the powerful. We thought......
Now thoughtless things abound. Now the unconscious erupts. Now mirrorcles happen.
Question: Why aren't they calling this abortion doctor's murder terrorism? Christ on the crackers. They call everything else terrorism. What could be more obvious. How's about locking up some of these nutbags and leave women to choose as they choose. Or, frankly, let's start aborting the boy babies, and give 'em the full complete dicksterectomy at the blessed circumcision. Nuts to the Pope I say. His clan seem to really go for 'em.
As I write, some maniac is shooting in the DC Holocaust museum. Stop attacking Jews you nutballs. Christ on the crossfire. Leave these folks to their lives. Let them have a wail of a time. They've earned it. I want them to live long and prosper and not be hunted anymore. And that goes for everybody else. It's ridiculigulous. Holy Moses! I really like Jews. I don't like what Israel does with the Palestinians. It's time for peace in the sandbox.
Mercury goes into Gemini on 6/13. We're in a rolling grief grinder. Great sadness and the rage of oppression are upchucking for two more months. This is the stuff that'll lead to schweinfluenza come autumn. As the West stuffed itself, with the Third World's grief products that we bought on the cheap, we ate their tears. Sounds weird I know, but these are weird times in which we can see how weird it always is.
All of our own karmic and present life grief and grievance are upwelling. Express and give it room. If you stuff, you'll be sorrier later. Let the old sorrows go. You don't have to tote them and rote them. There is no closure. There's clearance. Drain the obcessed pools or go down the drain in inglorious ways.
Things aren't getting worse. We are getting to the worst things that got stuffed. It's called karma. Not some shit that somebody did wrong!!! It's just the shit that went unconscious. So don't Goodify/Godify! That's been the problem. And all the Solutions are based on the idiocy of the problem of goddifying over what was made bad.
Unhinge Pandora's door, or be unhinged for many a long and sorted day....
Things and people are going crazy. We are righting our ships after all that oppression of Righteous wronging. Off with your sins. Off with your judgment daze.
Yumpin' Yupiter goes retrograde on 6/15. Contrarily, this is when things can get better economically. For the oh so ignorant, it's when the shit starts to hit their fantastic. For you and I and where we live, we can begin to get some traction. It's a different kind of traction. We are skywalking while the lucre is falling and the stars war. Get out of The Way. Make way for you. Choose and unlose. Fire abundance and manifest what you want. Enrich your life, not your booty.
You and I and we can play with this. Play your way through. Let work fall where it may, but play, okay.
Summer Solstice, Cancer season, arrives 6/20. The Sun shall be opposing Pluto in Capricorn. Power schemes will receive full illumination. We are in Revelations, if you see what I'm saying. All the shadow, all the underworld, all that is unconscious is being enlightened for the enlightening the load. Enlightenment as a destination, as an attainment, is fool's goaled. Enlighten the ignorance and drop the stories and the glories.
Family is being completely reworked if not just plain dissolved.
Codependence and family are synonymous. It has inherent neuroses with left and right hooks. The way through all the madness is autonomous sharing. Interindependency. Being together is not a job or a mission or a sacred duty. It's a choice. Hookers get screwed, and in the years ahead, are just plain fucked. Let go of the neediness inherent in these unconscious patterns. It's not to deny that we all have something like needs. But neediness as a way of life sucks. Just ask for what you want. You get it or you don't. Then you make another choice. So it goes. So let go of circling the waggin's and let go of chasing tales.
Simply be and the easier your life shall be.
Here's some real funny images/stories. Have a Google at them:
Check out The Prez, his royal Obamaness, in King Saudi Bling. Who could rap a guy who gets a 25k necklace from the heroes of 911 land. Ain't life stranger than strange?
Have a look at Vanity Fair's real bizarre photosurrealism of Seth Rogen as Frida Kahlo. It's in an article about the new comedians. I must say, most of them are truly dull and duller. Movies and comedy these days make me want to ralph at the nadir. Investigate that!
This odd mystery has been around a while, but is worth visiting:
Georgia Guidestones. America is the home of the freebie and the land of the bravado, with a twist of lemming.
I demure to find the David Carradine death photo on the web. What an odd story, and so true to the family's and his reputation. It's kung fu'd for thought. If I had a newspaper, the headline would've been Bill Killed. Chi whiz, the master baiter, onan the barbarian, left hanging after going back in the closet. Or something like that. Who needs fiction when we've got the current uber surreality. The hotel he died in is noted for its penis shrine. Yipeee Thai yay ay....
Carradine had Saturn in Pisces opposed to Neptune in Virgo. He was born in 1936, with all those juicy imprints of bizarro fascism and depression stamped upon him. The guy played it out theatrically, in life and on the screen. He was built for screen thespiantics indeed. Like his odd papa, he fascinated. With the current opposition of Saturn in Virgo and Uranus in Pisces, the tabula rasa had turned on him. Whether Bill was killed or whether he danced upon the edge of petit mort, either way he went over the edge in edgy style, creeping unto death.
I was certainly affected by David's Kung Fu tv show in the early 1970s.
My own life felt like a disAbeled Caine wandering Taoistly through the wild west of America looking for the master bait. The opening of each weekly installment showed him getting his wrists branded in Shaolin ritual by red hot vessel. Hey, that's life. Scarry and scary, but an adventure. Carradine did hold that, that mystery, that quest in glorious mad monkery shines. May he rest peacefully.
Stephen Colbert Report in Baghdad is hilarious this week. He's one of the funniest things to come along in any medium. The soldiers love him.
He's experienced one close shave: his head.
I thought Susan Boyle, the warbling Brit of idle fame and YouTube glory, was Asperger's autistic. She has a bit of a glitch going on, but hey, she's British, so there's the charm. Turns out she was brain damaged during birth; she got oxygen deprived. She brought about a gasp when she wowed the Idolators. To me, she looks as though she's always on the verge of a gasp herself. Live by the gasp, die by the gasp.
Patterns pattern out all the way through. That's how I read and seer.
It's accurately predictive to read pattern rather than thinklogize, because being with anything trumps seeing/believing beyond the know ledge where being drops off into the o'er chasm of projection. Because of dyslexiness, I see/hear in broken scrambled bits. It offers me the ability to instantly reconfigure speech, to see wholes and holes and all the interconnections. It also offers me the ability to see what is obvious, what is apparent, beyond collective trance agreements. Because I don't run so much in the collective trance agreements, I'm often not seen or heard, and that takes its toll on my being valued/paid in society. I quirk, therefore I amble. My bottom lining, my assets suffer for it. Tis the heartist's dilemma.
I tire of not being valued. I'm sure you do too. Oy oy oy. As the world revaluates to the bone, so are we individually. We are impoverished by the hunt for what we are not. Struggle is stupidom, ignorance gone wiled. We are blankrupt, trinketized into poverty. We ruined Manhattan for baubles..... and laughed at the natives in the process. Who's fooling whoooommmm?
Winner winner wins big! A dirt poor Winner, South Dakota rancher won 232million spankeroos. He netted 88million after taxes. See what I mean by surreal. I reckon that the gross national product of Winner just tripled. Way to go cowboy!
Koko Taylor, the blues belter, just died after surgery on her guts. Her life took a lotta guts. She sang from her guts. I've written about her before in these pages. I sat in front a number times literally while she spit out the blues. She had a great heart and was a touchstone for me to the Delta. She was a wang dang doodle indeed.
Robert Colescott just died. He was a painter who was black and tweaked blackness to a remarkable degree, amongst other things. He studied with Leger. Pretty cool. Very free dude really. Google him for fun. He pushed many buttons. What are artists for after all???
Donald Roller Wilson is worth checking out, too. He's so full of quirks and gorgeous squirreliness. I've sent examples of his art to folks and I never hear from them again. They get offended it seems. Strange to me. I like all wonders really. Maybe I just find being offended offensive. I'd call it defended. What is their to defend....... after all.
I realized I was a fool a long time ago. I've certainly been a serious fool along the way. Now I'm mostly just a fool who's foolin' around. I laugh a lot and am funny a lot. People have no idea. Once I undied and unbirthed, once the pain of nearly a year's worth of kidney stone pain subsided and my guts settled out from life on the road..... I'm easy fun.
Next week I'm moving with my dear matey to Sierra Vista land in southeast Arizona. We're making sanctuary for us and for the birdies which are abundant and glorious there. Fourteen species of hummingbird cruise through the area, along with 400 plus other feathered friends.
There's no place like it in the USA. It's an oasis between the Chihuahuan and Sonoran deserts. The San Pedro Riparian zone is free flowing water in desert land and has more mammals concentrated in such a small area than any other place in North America = 88. So we're going to watch the light and the critters in our peaceable manufactured hominess.
I've been interested in making sanctuary my whole life. Now it is manifesting. We have enough cash to get there, and that's about it. We'll be out in boonidom without a vehicle. Edgy, but free and warm. If you're able to contribute financially, I'd be much obliged. I want to keep my boat afloat so that I can write on and astrologize with you in the glorious days ahead.
Thanks for being with me and for being kind along the way.

Astrology is fun is it not? I've been playing with my birth chart for well over thirty solar returns. In the course of these decades, I've read for at least a thousand folks, formally and informally. I just came across the astrological research of John McCormick. What interested me is his look at people with no retrograde planets in their natal chart. For most of my career, I was the only person I'd seen with such, until recently when I had a client likewise arranged. According to McCormick, eight per cent of the population has no retrogrades. The big chunk of the bell curve has one to four. Six and seven are the rarest. I've seen a number of sixes; not sure I've seen seven.
Vanity is always succulent in the study of one's asterisimo. McCormick says that 36 of the 44 US Presidents have no retrogrades. That's eighty per cent, compared to eight per cent of the populace. Obama is not one of them, though he's a lefty, and that's been a recent trend in the White House.
If you like to have fun with your chart, check out Astrotheme.com. It's French based, which is tres chic. Look up your fellow birth celebs born on the same day as you. They have great little bios and odd tidbits.
For instance, I just found out that Andre Agassi's sister was married to the tennis great Pancho Gonzales, arguably the greatest tennis player ever. He was Latino and entered early into the pro game, which was oddly distained back then, as were the Mexicanish. Andre is a genuine sweetheart. He paid for Pancho's funeral when he died broke in 1995. Gonzales is a fascinating story. There's a fine little film about him on YouTube.
Here's some of my fellow July 14 mates: Ingmar Bergman, Gerald Ford, Harry Dean Stanton, Gustav Klimt, Emmeline Pankhurst (UK's foremost suffragette; viva la femme), Bastille Day (the French Revolution onset; my Sun is exactly the same minute of arc; someday somehow I'm going to be in Paris for my and the Republic's bday), Woody Guthrie, the Republic of Iraq, Victoria de Suede (cool name, n'est pas? She's the only living female heir apparent in the world; she's Suedish for Sweden), Angelique Kidjo and Jerry Rubin (the strange Yippie cum Capitalist who died jay walking across Wilshire Blvd in Los Angeles, a street I'm rather fond of for some strange reason).
Who might your fellow quirkmates be.......?
My readings for people are laser sharp and sea change deep these days.
Get yourself one, and for a loved one, too. I also offer a unique Poem of You that'll resonate with you for years to come. If you want a clear reflection, I see you.
For our current astrologeewhiz, we've got Mercury just going unretrograde. That's a relief. It was tedious, and as annoying as some of them can be. We also got the first Jupiter-Neptune conjunction behind us, with Neptune going retrograde as well. A certain pressure came off the psyce.
Mars gets out of its rulership Aries and on into Taurus for six weeks.
Dear Venus goes into Taurus, which she rules, on 6/6. Speaking of which..... I just noticed that Bobby Kennedy was assassinated on 6/6/1968. 1968 adds up to a six, which makes it a 666. Seems appropriate. It was the last straw in that god offal run of the 1960's from Malcolm X to Bobby. The guts for revolution/resolution were really gone after that, and all hell broke loose.
It still feels like Obama could play out such a destiny of martyrdom.
He doesn't want to exit, and I see that he has resolved not to. That's mighty good enough, but we're in the equation. I just don't know if society is into keeping him around. Bobby stepped on a lot of mean toes. Barack does as well......
Have you noticed that Barack is always campaigning, for himself it appears, while campaigning for human rights or such? I'm not sure of the depth of his actual commitment to the purported great change. Maybe it's just the mass's strum and drag. Maybe it's just dumbocratic blatherisms. Maybe we can only live in the maybe, yet.
The Full Moon of Gemini/Sagittarius on 6/7 is square to the Saturn-Uranus opposition. Tensions are twanging. I had been a feeling an earthquake coming to LA, as I'd stated to a friend there, and sure enough there was a bump of 4.7 on the Wreckter Scale in mid May.
Forewarnings I reckon. Mercury will join the Sun in Gemini on the 13th, which maintains the tweaking and twanging, along with Venus and Mars soon heading through Twinland, until 8/25, when the pressure finally comes off. It's a psychically hot summer!
The bifurcatin' of Gemini is amped by being square to the every forty year Saturn-Uranus opposition, which is in Virgo/Pisces this time; last time it was in Pisces/Virgo. Massive grief and grievance are upwelling, upchucking. Without enough expression and discharge of all that emotional/psychic energy, the lung chi suffers, thereby laying the ground for an autumnal eekquinox of Juan Flu over the cuckoo mess.
People are about to be dying to get out of here. The psychic pressures, let alone 3D-itis, are great and grating.
Be aware: this summer is a highly creative time!!! Listen: Creatively be, even as you feel cranked and cranky. What you create is much less important. It's just grist in the milling. Play with It! Expression is key. Stuffing will make you a turkey and cook your giblets.
By Thanksgiving I suspect that the flu will be rampant and deathly. So express, healthify and let your immune system do the walking and the talking. The fear stampede is going to be outrageous, or rather inrageous. Snuff happens. We live in interesting times.......
Jupiter goes retrograde on 6/15 and will back across Neptune on 7/10; that means that they are cruising pretty much together for some time.
This is very intense!!! It only happens every dozen years, so we're not used to this. You can't really strategize your self through it all.
These tidal forces are a slippery slope. Faith and hope back up like acid refux. It may be hard to swallow...... things are chokeablock.
The archetypal background grinding is dominating what otherwise is a lovely time. The shadow bits are having their way because people stuff them. The psychic forces are immense; galactic wars and enfant terrible tantra are erupting and descending. It's the stuffings closest to our bones, to our incarnation moment when we got our berth wherein the karmic patterns are deposited...... that now comes forth, comes froth, comes firth.
In America there is a psychic media change taking place. Another interesting parallel to the Jupiter/Neptune conjunction. The TV iconic sleep portal called the Tonight Show is changing guard. Jay Leno goes to an earlier hour and Conan O'Brien takes over the 11:30 pm slot. Johnny Carson must be turning over gravely. Conan the Obranian is dull and itchy fair. His humor is allergic.
I was able to get charts with exact times for Jack Paar, Carson, Letterman, Leno and O'Brien. Fascinating bunch they are. They hold the collective psyche in a unique way. Jack Paar was a teacher for me. I'd sneak out at night as a boy to watch him live so that I could get some real and creative people in my life. Last year, when I wanted to do streaming video, I was going to honor and build on Paar's work.
Jack Paar had Saturn/Neptune conjunct in Leo. He was highly emotional, vain indeed, but he could host the vain and our vanities, and he had an intense relationship with truth and power. He finally couldn't stand the Sixties constraints on truth and expression in media, and he quit.
Carson had a Jupiter in Capricorn opposed to Pluto in Cancer. He was extraordinarily able to shill for the corporate marketing machine while establishing a stronghold in America's home, their bed; thereby going directly to the psyche like everybody's business.....
His Sun was in the last half of a degree in Libra. He had to contain himself personally, private as they said, because he really didn't have much of a self. He was about the other, the perfect host, the seductive subductor. His wit penetrated even as he perpetrated in sly foxiness.
He gave expression through the repression that Paar had trouble with.
Leno was Carson's heir inapparent. Usurperman. Letterman had been groomed for secession and was Carson's favorite son. The network wanted an everybody. Jay boy has Moon/Saturn conjunct in Virgo near his Mars retrograde in same Sign. He never can really hold an edge. Dull sells duly. He's his mommy's and daddy's good boy, and America's, too. While seeming blue collar and down to human, he has an oily smarm that is held in his massive, unctuous chin. Letterman once called him a hump.
I'm a Letterman fan. He's odd and odd to watch. He's an Aries with Mars in the first degree of that Sign, which it rules. I like Letterman because he's being himself, curmudgeonly crust and all. I'm fine by that. It takes one to appreciate one. If he feuds, you know it. Take it or leave it. He leaves the quirks in. It was a wonder to watch him with Joaquin Phoenix some weeks ago. Check it out on YouTube. Dave leaves it all dangling, if you know what I mean.
He's got a wide conjunction of Saturn/Pluto in Leo. Mostly he just lets the truth take care of itself; he gives it room, sometimes for years. When he was denied the Tonight Show, he chose to own his own show and go to CBS in the same time slot. Leno has been jealous and less paid ever since the deal went down seventeen years ago. I'm sure he'll be owning his new 10 pm show.
Dave finally let his heart break, and it broke open, via a quintuple bypass. He's melted considerably. Nobody really expected the dude would have a kid, or get married again. He's done just that and shared it with the public, too. Now he let's it all hang out, for himself and for his public. Letterman's a real mensch..... and belongs in New York.
Conan is a Connecticut Yankee who's about to be in King Carson's Court. Strange. He sure don't look like glib California LaLa material to me. I find him grating and useless, mostly. Brilliant he is. But he also has his fingernails upon the chalkboard of America. Somehow that seems appropriate. These sleep portalite TV hosts are evermore reflective of the collective psyche.
O'Brien's chart has an intense Grand Cross in the Fixed Signs. He's potent, and that's what's seen him through to the catbird seat. He's a crossroads person for America. We'll see if he can handle it. Perhaps his red hair will spark the conflagration in the astral planes while TV dies in its wooliness.
The NY Times magazine last Sunday had Conan on the cover. He's all Irish Catholic all the way up his lineage. (An odd aside, for several years recently, Conan had a priest stalking him. Isn't that a beaut?! Talk about weird Irish Catholic miasmas!! I do love the gossip.) The article had a photo of his folks. Yikes! Talk about East Coast tight!! Maybe the boy is getting to Californica to let his bouffant down. That 'do of his stands upon his head in dry and mortal fear, I reckon. Perhaps they'll change the name to the: ToYikes Show. He sure looks way more anxious than affable and entertaining, to me.
I wrote to him. I'm a total fool, you know. I want to help the guy. He holds something in himself that he doesn't understand. That's important, but he has a show in his hands that is fulcral in this crazy country's psyche.
Along with the Fixed Grand Cross, he's a Sixties baby with Uranus/Pluto conjunct in Virgo. In his chart, his ascendant splits two planets. Thus, the guy is way itchy gritchy because he's got humanity wedged up his ass. I mean it. I know it sounds weird, but watch what plays out.
The situation is much more interesting than the show itself.
If I had Conan's ear, I'd help him to get off his schtick and encourage him to realize his being. Then he'd be good to go; he'd be potentized. The boy has potential to lead the revolt beyond big mommy/daddy. But he'll have to face it deeply within himself. He'll have to let his heir down. He'll have to crack us up, rather than support the crackdown.
Along the lines of moi wanting to help the famous....... when I undied and unbirthed last year, after I went through the black hole, I had to burn through the correspondent white hole: the package of potential goodies that one carries in their karma sack upon incarnation. I sincerely wanted to be Roger Federer's friend. Whack, I know. But in the melting, when I was so ill with gastrointestinal gore and crazy pain kidney stones, I sought what I wanted. That's why I was going for it while I had literally nothing. Remarkably, I manifested some cool experiences, even amongst the intermittent homelessness and suffering.
As everything burned off, it was a fall, a fall off, but it was a meteoric fall. Since, my star is all the brighter for it....
As to the phenom Federer friend story...... I'm a great tennis fan.
Oddly and connectedly, when I was little, my feet were sort of put on backwards, rather like dolphin fins. So when I began to walk, they realized that I had to have my flippers put into heavy shoes. That made me slow in the tag lane, always It, and never fully anteloped, until...... I got the shoes of clay off may feet and strapped on....... tennis shoes. Then right away, I self taught myself tennis, with quite excellent form........ I could now play.
Several years ago when I first worked in Australia, I manifested a life long dream to go to a Grand Slam tournament. It was Australian Open in Melbourne, to me the heart of the heart of tennis. I went to my Mecca for the full two weeks. It was grueling and so Aussie and so wonderful.
My tennis hero of earliest days was Rod Laver. For the Men's Semis, I was in Rod Laver Arena, with Rod Laver near me, while on that day he had passed on his mantle as the Great One directly to Roger Federer. I wept for joy of them, and I wept in celebration of my own play, beyond my feet of clay.
Then last year in my wild demise, thanks to all of you who kindly donated to me and a tax refund, I got over the Indian Wells, CA tournament, as I sought to convert my writing over to tennis journalism. I was homeless, sleeping in my rental car in the beautiful desert that I love, but I got to see two days of the early rounds and be close to the pros as they practiced. More whack, I know, but I meant it. Nevertheless..... I got to talk to my would-be friend Roger Federer, for one second, but in person. It was on a practice court. I was seven feet from him. I said: "Roger, how are you?" He said: "Perfect." I knew that was a lie. He'd had mononucleosis over that winter and his game had dropped, to everyone's shocked surprise. I knew that he was caught in something he didn't fully understand and I so wanted to help him. What I saw was, amongst other things, that he needed to get mad, good and bad and mad...... to blow out the perfect halo deal greatest thing that he had been blessed/cursed with.
Lo and behold, some weeks ago, old Roger was choking in a match with the yips, nerves and doubts and hesitations, so uncharacteristic to who he is as a player and person. During that losing match, a match that he had had in hand, he broke his racket in a fit of temper and didn't shake hands with the umpire at the end of the match.
Bingo. He "heard" me.
It took about a month and a half of percolation, but last week, he beat Rafa Nadal (the current number one and co-great with Fed); he bet him on clay in Nadal's native Spain. Fed is the only dude to have beaten Rafa, ever, in a big tournament on clay in a final. Roger did so once before, but this one realllllly counted, and you could see it in him. Roger is now himself, no longer Rajah, no longer perfect and ordained. He's himself. Win or lose, he's himself and sorted out from his karmic burden. It should bode well for his game.
My work, my impulse, my care is based on wanting people to be. That's why I write here. I want you to be.
As to other goings on......
Times are indeed tough. Did you see that an aspiring actress of some substance, Lucy Gordon, hung herself to death, with her fiancee in the other room? I drew up her chart. The back story is that her dearest friend lately had committed suicide. Lucy had a Gemini Sun and many other interesting factors. I reckon her friend and she had some old twin karma. So Lucy mirrored, as Gemini's do, refracting into death after her dearly departed.
Certainly her life looked quite perfect, but it cracked, it cracked closed instead of open. She was in her Saturn return; she had a bunch of planets around her Saturn in Virgo, and they were all tweaking. Basically, she fretted to death.
Please remember to express in these difficult times. We ooze in this strange Oz these days. Let it out. Let it go. I know that listening is rare, but let it out anyway. Unload. Unparfait. The cherry of you.... is at the bottom.
Also, the former South Korean president just committed suicide. Yeehaaaa. Latvia is collapsing. So are other states, other systems, other ecologies, other corporations, markets, meaning and so on. Big entropy follows big organization. We hit a critical mass of power while piling up power. Now it unwinds..... with great powerlessness. We are finding that maintaining the complexed life that we have felt is so important, costs more than it gives. We aren't just hitting peak oil. We are hitting peak power, wherein power curls back on itself, yinging the yang. We've out run our projections and fallen off the cleft.
Next time, I'm going to write about Bernie Madoff and moolah, but meanwhile... check out Mint.com. It's a site that allows you to hook into all your electronic financial nodes of debits and credits such that you can track what your net worth is in any moment. If you live life at the surface and you want to build your dream come true... have, have a lot, at it. But this so smacks of the insane vanity of the corporatized world, of how such conditioning has been so internalized, that people literally Blackberry all day long just to see their pile of money, to smell their reeking assets. Practically, this is a handy dandy tool, ay? But existentially, ethically if you will, it is such a vain and hideous excretion of greed while ignoring all the world's need, while ignoring the individual's actual need. Wealth is not wellth.
I vote for wellth. Check out unconsumption.tumblr.com
http://unconsumption.tumblr.com/ for the fun of it. Playing with
things, whilst it's all melting, can be fun. Maybe in all this mad meltdown, kindness will come to the fore rather than the discharity of disparity.
Last year by direct intention, I burned through all the deepest stuff of my birthing and pre-birthing imprints. (Death is just the processing of birth. There actually is no exit in the system. There's just the onset of the dream/software with its projections that you can actually get somewhere, something, someone, somewhy, somehow). Because I was right at the existential edge, like folks and the world now, it was so primalfully gnarly, so messy and messiantic, so powerfully powerless.
I went through the burn while not choosing to chase after ultimate projections. I chose to awarefully be with it all without editing, raw raw raw. For a year, I lived with great pain at a bunch of levels, and found that these were collective patterns as well. Everything melted so that I essentially have nothing 3D now. It has been 3D hard, but things are beginning to ease along.
I have an odd job description, writing to you here and giving sessions to folks, which requires that I carry collective imprints, so that I can reflect to everybody. This is what is difficult to understand about us seer types: our butterfly wings are pinned to the whole, to others, for purpose of accurate assistance and revelation. The result is that we don't have much of anything personal and the margins for personal existence are slim. We aren't built for capitalizing our lives. Since the begging bowl has gone out of style in this society, folks like me are left falling off the cutting edge that we are signed up to reveal.
Nevertheless, and now everthemore, har har, that's why I ask for your assistance financially here regularly; that's why I've left in2light to be a free system of giving and taking. Such a model may be dead. I may be the end of an erode. But that's why I ask for donations, for the site, but also for myself. There's not much left of me. There's oh so much left for me to reflect for you. You get to choose; I get to choose. Being is choosing.
As I lost everything early last year, I knew and said that the world would be going through the same tumble; people thought I was nuts. Well, I am, as we all are in our own ways (Jupiter/Neptune conjunct illuminates this these days), but I was accurate about what I said was coming to pass. I'm built for resonating and I tend to cut at the edge. I know a bunch of you are configured that way, too. You've hurt for many a year in this grand shift o rama. We may perish. Or, we may perish the thought. That's what I undid.
The Undoing for all of us will continue through the archetypal 2012 schtuff. Then immediately thereafter, the unconscious baggage of all the Armandgetiton will hit the wall. Oddly, as it crumples, we can get on with our lives. Until then, it all melteth and thereby, is quite unpredictable in details and in planning. Pointing at the Moon is not the Moon. These days, pointing at the Moon is the Montage. Every thing is happening..... as every thing no things. Go unfigure....
So, these days I gotta talk even funnier than I usually do cuz of the pure weirdness of it all. That's why I break out into the apocryphal speak at times. I noticed that the Obamas had a hip poetry fest in the Black House the other week. It's that kind of time. The space formed between the words tells the tale. Poetry is essential.
Do you see that kindness is the way through all of this for all of us?
I purposely discern kindness from being good. Good is a bad ideation reaction. Good engenders it's opposite; it's highly projective and sufferful.
Be. Kindness follows.
Check out the 2/26/2009 Scientific American article on kindness:
http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=kindness-emotions-
psychology There's also an interesting take in there about teasing, of all things. These science folks do have fun.
TV had a lovely show the other day on six degrees of separation. It's the Kevin Bacon thing wherein everyone has six connections to everyone else. Turns out it's a physical law, at least in this dimensional stuff. It's 6.6 actually. Makes you wonder about 6.66; perhaps the beast is in the software.....
The structure of this social webbing has nodes of connection, like the person that practically knows everyone and we happen to know them. (Curiously, one study suggested that on the World Wide Web, any document is 19 degrees separate from any other document. Another reference said that all other networks, of any sort, have 2 to 14 degrees of separation/connection 'tweenst them.)
These nodes of interconnection show up in everything. The NY Times some months ago had a great graphic that illustrated all the genetic connections of human disease. http://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2008/05/05/science/
20080506_DISEASE.html?ref=health It shows the interesting clusters around nodes, like diabetes or a sort of cancer, etc. It looks rather like suns with orbiting planets, I suppose.
The show also had cool/creepy animation of how the "nodes" inside of a cell biologically manufacture protein links, thereby creating our corpus magnificat. You can see that it's all the same software replicating in the micro and the macro, no matter the system, the osmose of the cosmos, becoming looping upon itself.
Can you see that experience itself is nodal, too? Experience is where we really live. Amongst the swarming activity of apparent randomness in life, there are regular nodes of.... lunch, or falling in love, or sleep, or Mozart.... along with all manner of less noticeable mundane experience orbiting around the big experience nodes of drama, the high points and low points, in the story.
It's all running on the same software. That's why every thing is connected. We aren't the software. There's nothing sacred or worshipable about the infinite connections on the substrate of the operating system.
When you can't see the software, connectedness is the end all - be all of the Dream. Likewise then, disconnection is the great and terrible curse. These days, we watch great disconnection taking place, even as millions closely fritter and twitter. There is a terrifying disconnect going on for folks, a lot of which is unacknowledged but highly re-acted. This is a result of End times effects.
The software "thinks" you, such that you believe that if you connect, the suffering, the dumb thrum will go away. Nodes simply form like standing waves in the buzz of it all, like islands, such that we think some thing is happening, so that we can ground in the Dream. But it's all a mirror game in which unconsciously you seek your self in greater and lesser forms, always, all ways hitting the cold hard surface and feeling as though you've failed, when in fact you are just bumping up against the failing/flailing mechanism of the game. It's called suffering.
Finally, there's no End to it all. While.... all along (the watchtower), you are compelled by the software to chase after the end of whatever projection is on your screen. During End times, this every 26,000 year window upon the Game in the Mayan Collander, you can see and feel that chasing after projections, material and spiritual, doesn't work..... for you. But it surely works for the Game. It's a distraction from your being. It's noise. It's a pain in the assumption.
Thus.... you feel crazy, failed, bankrupt and cranky. Notice how you feel all of that these days!?! You.... you are not the problem.... and therefore, you don't have to become some solution or go chasing solutions.
Hear me now for your own relief: the software is crazy, failing, bankrupt of your being and cranks you harder the harder you try.
So let, let go, let going your way be a letting go. Easefully unwind.
There's nothing to get, except the joke.
Yours unruledly,
Mark

Yumpin' Yupiter! Here Now the Neap Tune
May 14, 2009
Society is singing a neap tune. Jupiter is octavating. All is being reset. We leap beyond how we look. The conspirity of prosperity winnows. We've had to take it, with grains of assault, while we get the chaff. How low will we go? Who's to know. In the change of Ages, the collidescope refracts. It reflects upon us. Consciously being dispels.
Jupiter last conjuncted Neptune in early January 1997. I remember it being quite gnarly. Twas in Capricorn then. The mounting waves of Web boom, tech bubble and roots of this wacky banking thing hark back to thereabouts. With this conjunction, in Aquarius 5/27/09 firstly and lastly 12/21/09 (exactly 36 months before the dread Mayanic Depression), all the heavy restructuring of the whoring '90's gets a radical makeover, right into hyperspace. There's no telling what is being concocted by the cons who coct us, by the wizards of connectivity, by the mad slyentists.
The world is getting smaller and less intimate. Boundaries have dissolved into crystalline loneliness. Everyone is all one, unitized, with a face you can read like a book, with heart and soul lost in space. Aquarius can be really heavenly metal. It has nothing to do with water bearer, the silliest of the symbols. It's about wave, vibe, matrix, light.... more than we can comprehend at this time. It is complex, and lost in its complexes. We'll be seeing plenty of that for centuries to come. Dark matters and dark energies make up the bulk of space, in physics and indeed in metaphysics. More will be revealed for it is the time of Revelations. When the see level elevates, you get a sinking feeling cuz disguise is falling.......
I like Aquarius, but at its worst, it disassociates beyond being. Our world is now highly fractured. So called democracy is apparent individualism, but it conditions the herd into a vain likeness of uniquity. Corporate marketing is the cancer of the body politic. It divides for its dividedends, for its conquering. Growth is made next to godliness.
That shit needs a time out.
Politics have morphed into marketing. Society is webbed. There is rugged individualism; it's called the consumer, a rigid individilism.
The hollowed nuclear family consists of protons and electrons with some neutrons thrown in for good muck. Spin is all that happens in the radial activity.
Being cuts through this gaminess, the stinkin' thinkin'. I say be.
Prosper by melting your baggage. The lightness of your being remains.
Want lots, waste lots. Be and ye can abide thee. Be can't be had. Be to see. Choose and you can't lose by blowing in the win......
Venus and Mars continue coursing closely through Aries. It's hard to tell the Forrest from the Gump. I don't know what that means, but you get the picture. The feeling is insecure taut ripe walking. We are buffaloing off to Shufflo, or some such. May we or mais oui not, that is the questin'. I reckon we are getting on with things, adjusting to a smaller world perhaps, realizing the subtractive of the addictive. Cold turkey on a hot planet.
The waters are rising while we synch like we're stoned, for the times they are deranging. The losers now will soon be to win for the times they're rearranging.
As the world ends and the ends whirl, what can we expect but centripetal centrifugal. Our insides are being turned outside in and the outside is being turned inside out.
When pigs flu, avians oinked. The Hong Kong influessence of 1968 was quite the lethal pandemic. Uranus was then exactly opposite where it is right now. Over a year before that outbreak, Uranus and Saturn were opposing, as they have been lately. Death after all is a doorway beyond the mortal coil. When we get these alignments, when it is such an existential grind to humanly be, people slip the knot more readily.
Life in May is a bit lighter than it has been. Suffering, however, is constant. It changes hue and cry. Waves come and go go. The psyche lies low and lo it never lies. The tocks tick, the pox pax, time will toll, ill or well.....
The Jupiter/Neptune conjunction currently dominates the flavor of the month. Space is the place in the Hubble bubble. Cosmic walkabouts yield certain visions. We see stars as we stare at the Son. The savior faire illumines the Grey mansion. It's our lurky daze.
Indebted to those credits to our society, those pater fleeceus, we have banked our fires instead of firing our bankers. Credit is given where credit is due until debt do us part. The capital idea is now social nationalizm. Ask not what your country has done for you; ask how your country is doin' you. Heil halter. The yoke is on you. Or is it.....
Owe owe owe your bloat jauntily down the scheme. Verily verily verily verily life is but a screen.
These are the strangest of times. Really surreal as it unreels. Is anything in your life the same as you have known it? Knowing has been crushed. Faith has taken to beating. What you had and who you were.....
it gone.
So....... now......... be.
There is now choice. There is no control. There is know ledge, but as ye think, ye shall fall.
For every reaction there is an unequal and oppositional action.
What goes up and up has become a real downer.
Faults are quaking, but there is nothing wrong with you.
Getting it right takes you to the bottom wrong of the ladder dazed sainthood.
The unruly rule.
Judgment Deity is here and it is God offal. The Highered Help is revealed as a real steal. To whom you prey, preys you.
Mirror mirror of the wall, who's the pharaoh of it all. Peer amid the scheme et al, kingdom come and kingdom fall.
Our common wellth has been poisoned, the field of play assaulted. The profits of doom shall be laid lo and behold their filthy lucre. Turn their plowed shares into swords that cut the rot, the rote and tote.
Lay fallow fellows for the task has forced the hollowed ground. We lay empty in our fullness, out of our gourds, squashed beyond recognition of what is simply so. Sow where ye raped. Compost your self. Scat is logical, shit happens. Face the pied hole lest ye be returded, for we eat, shit and die, naturally.
Corporate capitalism is what is eating us, and them, and all. Their prophets are metastasized. Twomore for them, none for the rest. Let us rest, easy. Growth is cancerous. Sustainance is unprofitable, ungrowthworthy. Enlighten your load. Unbaggage your pack. Quit while you are ahead. Recognize the lessen of gain. Be commonist, pinko.
The mighty think they do righty so that nothing is left for all the rest.
Do no right! Quit climbing the wrongs of the mobius trip. When you try to get it right, you forget what you left.
Don't stop. Don't start!
Going for the goaled is ignorant be leaving. Choose delightfully along the meander if you value peace.
More is not listening. There is no lesson to learn. There is lessen to face. Weep and ungnash your teeth. Bite off nothing you can't choose consciously.
The promised land exists only in our ignorant for-get-fulness.
America is the land of the free deal that enslaves the unvalued.
America is the home of the brazen.
America flags everything cuz it is the gratest, the scourge, the whipping void.
America has gone beyond its continence, pissing on everything righteously.
From this day forward we will whore no more.
Grant nothing for taking.
Simply be while playfully being. It is not a big deal. It is not a little deal. It's not a deal. The cards are on the table, the house has folded. Slowly ramble instead of maniacally gamble. All bets have been way off. The chips are down for good reason, goodness gracious unglory and be.
As to other curiousities....
Venetia Phair just died. (See NY Times Obits 5/11/09) As a little girl, she named the planet Pluto. It's a lovely story really, a most interesting karma. Turns out her grandfather's brother also named Mars'
moons Phobos and Deimos. Cool symmetry. Disney's dog Pluto was named after the planet, though some had suggested that it had come first.
That wasn't Phair. The girl's family was in a degree or so of separation to Clyde Tombaugh who had discovered Pluto. Because Percival Lowell had led the search for the trans-Neptunian planet, and because his first initials were PL, which is another symbol used for Pluto, Clyde the Guide went with Pluto. Way to go Venetia. Girl power!
Through some kind of genetic sleuthing the sciencistas claim to have discovered human origin to be near the Namibia/Angola border. I was quite near there in 2004. It felt like Eden. It felt like home. It's the most beautiful place I've ever been. Every adam of my eveing loved the place primally.
Global warming is a red herring. I've gotten around Earth a wee bit.
The problem is global swarming. We are a fucking plague par hexellence.
That's why I say stop going Repro. Stop it with the pets and the second empty homes and the gross gnashinull products. Tooooooo much. Tooooooo noisy. Vain gain vainglorious. It ain't cute. It's acute. Madness.
Yucky poo. Bullied shit. Caca twaddle doings.
In 2004, I spent three weeks in the Cape region of South Africa. I just heard a kind word from a client thereabouts and she brought back how dearly I love it there, especially for the light and the flora. Let me invite you to google/images for: fynbos. Have a looksee and enjoy.
Plants hold some of the deep innocence on the planet. I hate to see them go. I hate the dire suffering of humanity in South Africa and everywhere else as well. May we all resolve all of this absurd degradation so that we can enjoy the sheer delight all around us.
Simply being with the beauty, not taking, just being..... that's the life I foster and cherish.
I see beyond the margins as I write beyond the margins while living on the margin. Care to donate in appreciation of my care for you? I sing on this cyber corner for all to hear freely. Please consider freely giving so that my song can continue to be heard.
Gratefully,
Mark

Juan Flu Over the Cuckoo Mess
April 29, 2009
The Mask of Sorrow has returned. Ole mole! The terroridors ride again
as the bull rings a belladonic plague in the chilly Con Carny. Amounter
zoomers get their revenge while us beings get refried. Queso Dias!
Seize the cheese, if you know where they've moved it, or huevos your
nest egg good bye....
Alas and a lack, even the polo set's horses have keeled over. The
porkers have begun coffin' while the sick of shaft bursts and spills
its ills. Affluenza has struck the diseased center for control, this
time a real birdin' fouls the nest eggs. Mask hysteria won't prevent
the viral spiral. Fear is on the loose.
Because folks haven't faced their shadow emotionally, it gets pushed
down and somatisized. The body bares it. So will Gaia in arrowed
quivering. Feverish quakes await. Earth will hurl. Self attack is what
kills in this dissed ease. We haven't looked after our selves. We've
been conquered by divided ends. Now we get the unfairness of those
shares.
Cap-it-all-ism is a denial system whereby today's gain is tomorrow's
loss, our gain is their loss, gain is less..... and now we gain the
lessen. We've created our own reality, all right Now the shadow of such
can be seen in the all wrong. Mass consumption has positively negated
what was whole and healthy. Natural systems allow death and dearth,
dark and dormant. This mad western swing dance has stomped the two step
for long enough. The poles have shitted, dumped their glory load. Good
and God are bad ideations. Heaven on Earth is heavin' hell on earth.
The geeks have inhabited the Earth out of biblical proportion. Lastly,
comes the Revelation, the shadow eclipses the sun of good. Not for
ever, but for long enough to make it hurt, real bad.
Got milked. Cowed sheepishly. Herded through the great divine.....
More of the same, higher and deeper, smarter and quicker, greener and
pasteured.... ain't gonna undo it. We are folked up. A boobantic
plague. We've fixed it so that we are in a real fix mode, hopin' change
will change the daze.
Happily slappily going repro, filling the world with more village
idiots to be razed.... not gonna undo it. Having an i pod person is
just another project down the you tube. Morons will get their lessens.
And that's why Juan Flu Over the Cuckoo Mess. Hello kiddies, good bye
catatonics. Two times two times two equals octomom. The world is in
premature gesticulations oe'r the chasms. Tearers are renting the
fabric of life. Tis the Rupture caused by the fecund coming. Christ ya
know it ain't easy peacy....
Speaking of inauthentic reproduction.... the Chinese have aborted
untolled millions of girl fetuses, via ultra unsound practices, such
that there are 32 million more men than women coming on line. Since
boys will be boys, without the gala of the gals, those men will have to
engage in brainstemic sociology called: War. The pack will be thinned.
Keeping the male Chin up is going to be a real downer. The Great Wall
will have lemmings clamoring over it looking for Mongol hoards with
Ghengis conviction. Feng Shui that.
It all is getting weirder by the nano second. There are dozens of
Colombian semi-submarines that annually head for the USofA with
hundreds of millions of dollars worth of cocaine on them. The cartels
build submarines in the jungle and ballast them with blow, all to
supply Amerika's urge to numb. Ain't that special? The feces of our
species right under our knows....
Just the other day, Air Farce One buzzed the Twin Towers' neighborhood
for a photo opportunity of national pride and glorification. Fear that
infidels! How about pushing Dick Cheney down the street in a wheel
chair, too. He's a megaton of fun. The stank of power is in the nose is
it not? Hate too, Brute? Caesar the Dei. Divide the conquered. God
blast Amerika.
Perhaps the chap had too much ethanol.... An Iowa son, whacked his dad
over the head with a piece of cord wood and then proceeded to carve out
papa's pacemaker with a knife. Such hard to heart exchanges are
becoming frequent in fartherly love. Who's yer daddy.... gonna kill?
The family that preys together slays together.
This is a strange aside, but it somehow seems apropos. I read years ago
that children draw the sun shining in the upper right hand corner of
their landscapes. Check it out. They noticed in hospitals that when the
terminal kids drew the sun in the upper left corner, they died right
afterwards. The psyche is wired deep.
A New York Times Magazine article last Sunday wrote of the persistence
of quick judgment, referring to the lumpen Scots lady who sings
angelically, but who folks were prejudiced against. Mucho studies point
to how are judgment is lumpen, lumped in crude categories of quick
assessment that supposedly allows us to better survive the bungles in
the jungles. The more I read, the more I read of data mining by Google,
the more it seems that humanity is quite locked into the brain stem
most of the time. I'm not exactly waiting for GoodO. The mass response
of the masses tends to knee jerk idiocy. However, if we acknowledge our
ignorance, we may be able to choose beyond the shadowed wiring. I say:
claim your consciousness and clear your karmaed krud. It eases the way
and enlightens the load.
Singing of singers, I caught a performance on video of Anita Baker.
Please check her out again. She brings it! In the '80s, her tune Sweet
Love was a massive hit. I mean to tell ya, this lady can bring a
massive hit of sweet love all the way. She can sing as profoundly as
anyone I've ever witnessed. She's old school. She's bold school. Praise
Anita!
I've been studyin' a mite on the chart of the birth of the Internet.
It's heading for a progressed New Moon early next year. Seems to me
that the Net is ready to crash in a 911 creamergency kinda way. In June
coming up, Uranus in the sky will be coming to a halt while conjuncting
the Internet's Part of Fortune and opposing its Pluto. All of that is
T-crossing to the Galactic Center. Could it be time for some cosmic
wave photonic slap in the Facebook kind of electro smash?
Also in the background, they're building a new Internet, one that I
suspect they'll charge for and control, meant to supplant the current
Net that is so vulnerable to spamalot and too anonymous for the
controllers. The new Internet is meant to perform much better but will
be very addressed, no anonymity, just like finances and location of
your person and all the other big bro megalomania. Perhaps that's the
zap I see.
The other day we went to Mt. St. Helens in Washington within a couple
miles of her maw. Giant hills of debris that had flown out of her gut
lay in piles around us. It rained some, chasing away other humans, and
we were all alone with her immense silence. Aaaaahhhhsome! Green life
has tressed her blast zone, but it took many years for the coiffing.
Her 29th anniversary is May 18th. So I looked up her Saturn return. The
first contact was 11/19/08; then retro contact was 2/12/09. The final
Saturn return contact is 8.8.09. Uranus up in the sky is still hanging
out opposite to her Saturn during all this.
I have an inkling about the northern Cascades zone. It feels like deep
hell is ready to break loose. Quakes and the spewing of Mt. Rainier is
what I suspect. Seattle may be unsettled, with Boeing going boing and
Microsoft getting it macrohard. Helens seemed at peace though. More
shall be Revalationed.
There's another view of the End of the Mayan calendar that posits the
date 10/28/2011 rather than 12/21/2012. Carl Johan Calleman is the
fellow to search on for such info. I like the astrological look of this
date better than 'ol 2012. I won't go into it all now. We are indeed
feeling all the drainage swirls, big time. As we get nearer to the
Edge, more can be said. It's the Fixed crosses in the chart that speak
to me. There is nothing to fear but the fear of everything, so just let
it unwind,....... and unmind. It ain't you.
Mercury enters Gemini, which it rules, on 4/30. Splitting headaches are
the nature of the mind, the software. With Venus and Mars cruising in
tandem, it is difficult to find inner sanctum with the outer stanktum.
Likewise, Jupiter and Neptune are cozying up for a hopefest of
disillusion not seen before. What can be said?
May is a much better month than April's strange showers. It does have
an extra long Mercury retrograde from 5/6 to 5/30. That's business as
mostly usual, but the background, the backgrind, the buckgrunt......
these are extraordinarily tough times my friends. There really is no
precedent, no memory of cycles from which to gain wisdom that can
affect the personal. Transpersonal forces have us by the short heres,
the fear of the End, the death/dearth shadows from daze gone past.
May is a rather uneventful month astrologically. I suspect that the
deep shifts of the last years and of the last month will be hitting the
fantastic. Specific prediction is no longer important because of the
background noise. Be, on your toes and follow your nose. Choose, in
spite of lose. The All Won is coming undone. Peaces are going to bits,
inside and outside. It really isn't you. The Mirror Machine is
shattering. These are shard times. Holding it together as it fractures,
cuts deep and furthers the fracturing. People will be very fractious,
the mind very split, the ache to get a head will feel unbearable.
So let. So let go. So go lightly and as brightly as you may. The heavy
is gravitational. So unload. No need to fly to heaven. That all takes
care of itself. We are experiencing absolute hellven, often feeling
frozen and inert. Passion is dying on divine. Compassion is being
sorted, and at times sordid. Be kind. Be coreful. Be. I say it over and
over again because it is the only way through. If you tie your star to
the polarized messianic, you get burned and churned and inside out
turned. There's no Prophet in It. It is coming undone for the purpose
of unmirroring and unprojecting your being so that you can play as you
are, rather than chasing after your hired self. It doesn't work anymore
because you don't want to work anymore. Being and playing are their own
reward. In time, we wonder if it will be so in time, being and playing
will supplant working for a living. Wellth will replace wealth and all
its constipated piles. It is all coming loose in order to flush the
slush funds so that we can live in lush fun. You can't see it from
here, but you can be it and hear, glistening even while it storms.
Peace be what you are,
Mark
Do you like me sharing with you like this? It's important that I hear
from you by word and by donation. If I don't, May will be the last of
in2light. There's nothing left in the tank. If you refresh me, I'll
refreshen you in these MayDays ahead. If not, so be it. I've been
blessed to share with you here. You have been kind and lovingly
listening. Thank you and be well.

Trident True
April 17, 2009
Venus goes direct today. She rises on the shelling, the mortared bricks, the sunk. Will love save the daze or will love unmaze the haze?
Your choice, unless controlling what is out of control is your veilywick. The changes are timing, fast and furious. And gather round people wherever you roam, and admit that the waters around you have grown. Accept it, and soon, that you've been wrenched to the bone, for the minds they are deranging.....
The Sun enters Taurus on the 19th. Then Mars and Venus envoy in the last degree of the Zodiac on the 21st. He leaves the End, entering Aries on the 22nd. She leaves the End on the 24th, followed by New Lunation in Taurus later that day. The 26th finds Mars squaring Pluto as the 30th brings Mercury entrancing into Gemini.
Let your self be. Let your splits amend. Let the mind thoughtlessly nevermind, and be aware. What you do is a consequence of what you think you do. Be and choose instead. Or the sequence will con you, the project will eject you, the fodder will mudder like shift in shineola.
Valuate instead of insinuate. Intend instead of portend. Embrace instead of forebrace. The only thing to fear is itself fear. So drop it, like a stone unrolling, like a gathered mess, drop it.
You are fine in a messy antic kinda way. You can be if you see that never were you thee. Throw out everything including the kitschy think.
Your faith is in your hands. Unhand it. It lies where your being longs to be. If you are going some where, you will wear some, more and more in the grind of the mind on the find of lost soul proprietorship.
There's never been a better time to see the Game and realize your consciousness. I still offer such sessions to directly remind you how to claim your being and clear your identification in the karmappa. If you recognize such, contact me and it can be arranged. People have been slipping deeper into trance for the last several years. I stopped even referring to my speciality. No one cared anymore. I mention it now because someone came out of the wouldwork to have such a session. They want to unwind from the projection machine and play. I was happy to oblige. It's no big deal. It's simple and direct. You can undo, and only you can undo, what you've done and what has done you. The Dream is really creaming. The knight's mare is galloping. The noise is loud and unclear. It's your choice.
There's a fork in the road. The Path always forks you over and under, inside and out. The Light tunnels you forever and a daze cuz the dark matter and the dark energy run the projector. See what has been darkened, see your shadow, and you enlight, rather than chase it on the dread mill.
Going positive is a negative reaction and only begets more of such ignorance.
That's the Secret.
Good is God's Good way and it weighs heavily upon this burdened time.
Bad can't be gooded by God. God and Good are just ignored bad ideations, the iDeal writ large and fatuous. There's ignorance and there's being. If you ignore and badify in the name of goody gooding, you make bad, piles of it. The stench is ripe and ready steady going Right now. If ya gonna call the holyghostbusters, the holy shit will hit the fantastic in a nano second. It's Maya collander time: illusion is being sifted.
Will you choose or will you control? Will you be or will you do the doodoo? Will you will your will in your death will? Will you face your being unborn? Will you abort the missionary position so that your babyhood can finally be embraced consciously? There's life at the end of the tunneling. There's light and dark flickering in the yinyang machine. It's not you spinner. Step out of the dizzy dazzle and unfrazzle. Let life fall where it may. ReChoice oh ye of many efforts.
Easefully undo it. You aren't worth It. You are. So choose.
In this crazy polar Bear Market, a German woman leapt in feet first to join the polar bears of Berlin Zoo, and got mauled. She may lose life and limb infectiously. A lessen for the bull headed in dangerous financial times? Look, but don't leap into your grave concerns, and be careful at the mall.
Happy Berthday Neptune! The planet, that is. The first anniversary of human skyful awareness of him occurred on 4/12. His discovery chart of
9/23/1846 is auspiciously intense. Saturn and Neptune are conjunct in Aquarius, closely sextile to Pluto in Aries (Uranus in Aries as well).
Together they form a Yod to Mars in Virgo, all in a very tight formation within a degree of exactness. It's five of the ten outer planets lined up in a precise Finger of God formation! Truly a Fate Accompli.
In Neptunian style, the Berlin polar bear lady jumped (presumably because her life was bipolar and unbearable, and maybe it just didn't
floe) two days before Neptune's discovery anniversary. And guess what?
Neptune was discovered in Berlin. Gute allmächtige Gott!!! The Bare Naked Ladies must do a fun raising concert for this unfortunate fraulein. Yah yah.
We are ending the Piscean Age. Pisces is ruled by Neptune. Life is currently trident true, which is why things are so forked.
Unforkedgettable, n'est pas? Have you noticed extraordinary gaps in your cognition? Are your dreams grinding you to sleepless bits? Are your days a daze of dreamality, a kind of lucid sleeping? Welcome to Meltatopolis. Hello Dali. Our melting watches surreally.
Neptune's discovery (such an amazing chart) involves several things.
Abolition was reaching fever peak in America, soon to lead to a great civil war ostensibly about slavery. With this first Neptune discovery return, America has a black president, a black precedent in the Blackhouse. Roll over Tom Jefferson!
Photography, later leading to cinematography, was coming into its own in 1846. A few years after Neptune's discovery, photography was popularized in the carte-de-visite, the snapshot/postcard like fever that ran 'round the globe. Image supplanted and then expanded imagination, along with all of its emotional content in the psyche. It universalized us all. Image making dissolved reality, making it as plastic as our now fantastic Web. We are in full blossom wherein the Word is being replaced by the Image, all the way. The book is going down the YouTube. Our psyche, collective and personal, has merged and morphed in such extraordinary Neptunian Piscean ways. Wait til ya see what the Aquarian Age has to offer. Since Image is so manipulatable, so is the public. The shepherd herds the sheep; the wool is pulling over the ipod. Deludicrous times ahead.
The Mexican War hit a crescendo when Neptune popped onto our screen. In reaction to the drug cartel madness, Obama has gone to Mexico. He's also considering different ways to deal with Mexican immigrants. The American Southwest is now de facto more Mexican than gringo. What we took from them is being taken back. Karmauppance indeed. Neptune dissolves all borders. Levies are under attack by waves freely crashing. A tax will heighten, but the serfs are up, in arms, gunning for revenge.....
America has been a hothouse of religious delusion. A recent poll indicates that seventy percent of Americans believe in heaven and their entrance therein. The promised land believes in the promised land.
Whatta surprise. The major problem with such projective leavebeing is that ignorance of the here/now leads to degradation of valuing what is as it is. Thus Amerika has trodden so very heavily over cultures, countries, nature and the world's resources. We also have shoved such leavebeing down other's throats such that there is a bull market in the China shop. On that, the world's ecosystems shall collapse, written in India, Inc.
I say be with what is as it is and dissolve the notional inspirations that we are going anywhere in destined manifestation. The promised landings of heaven on Earth and in pie of the sky, are killing by devaluation what is right in front and around us. We build the great Walmart to have our caked losses of prior lives made right, and eat those fears too. Then we become the big shits on the block, dumping consumptive madness to fill the holy roamin' empire into every poor of the planet's itching skin. Lice job bimbos!
Stop the shop. Stop the gross domestic products. Trade lovingly, in kindness, for all. The delusion of credit, which is of course actually debt, is perhaps Neptune's greatest spawn. In less than two decades after its discovery, corporations as we know them, with their sovereign rights and absence of human responsibility, were established in the USA and made possible this heavin' on Earth.
Disincorporation is essential if we are to thrive beyond the scrapping to survive in this supposed glory. Christian stewardship, the dominion over God's creation, is the ugliest of Piscean dreamscapes. Roam and seizure. Fuck that! It has been an idiotic plague of the vainest, most pawnsied scheme we've ever seen. What would Jesus undo? Tis the second in coming. Balms away. The lords that crucify have crossed golgathacly into black Saturn daze of no apparent end. The Raise Erection now falls viagrically. The hard is on and we are fucked for more than forewarned hours. Calling the doctors makes ill sense for they are sickening profligately. It all caves in, we killed the Magdalene, and everlasting death doth us parse.
Awaken o ignorance, for thine is the suffering, the blight that makes Right. Break open shadowed unconsciousness and spill the bloody messianic 'til Gaia rests, 'til we rest. For thine vain glory is the poverty, the power and the everlasting strife, so helpless gods. Ah stupid men.
Let us not prey.
Let us have merci.
Let us not be Won.
End the Game for yourself. Claim your own consciousness, your own being beyond projections of the Hired Self, and clear your identification in your karmap. The Spirits got everyone drunk, gone fissioning, split out into selling and buying Secrets in the Purposely Driven life that rides proud and rough over the meek Earth inherited. The SuckU bus has had its run. Get off It! Learn your lessin'. Unwright the shit. Float upon the waters and never walk upon them again, for Christ's sake.
In the sweet bye and bye, loss feels ungainly. As we stumble out of our drunken binge, have a cuppa grace in the coup de grace. Kindly be.
Share and share a liking. Receive your giving before It has taken you for deride. Open your stores. Put your self on sail. Allow love to have its way, and not be you. You be. So see.

Entropic Thunder
April 9, 2009
Here's a client's response to one of my services - A Poem of You - which is a written astrological reflection. He liked it so much, he bought his friend one.
"Mark is such a caring, yet ferocious chanteur of the song of who you ARE." - S. O.
In any form, I can really bring it these days. Avail yourself the opportunity to break through your sludged patterns so that you can enjoy the delight of your being.
Google this: Dukhobors. The Dukhobors are a fun bunch of religious nutters that I find delightful in their wild mania and true heartedness. They have something to say in our current demise. It's worth reading a bit of their history for all the mad twists and turns. Their story deserves a movie. What I especially like about them is that they choose to refuse to fit into the modern world, especially the violent madness of governance. They are supreme refuseniks.
One of their favorite ploys is to strip naked in the presence of those that offend them. This protest form has come into vogue lately. It's always been popular for those going nutzie. I reckon it's just basic social refusal to cooperate with it all. Unfortunately, such an act does not gain us re-entrance to The Garden. I wish. I wish that I could unclothe the stinking foolery of our mad species.
More so, I tend to want to leave The Garden entirely. Even the birds of the air and the beasts of the field must kill life to sustain life. I find it all so very, very, very silly and embarrassing. Necessity has always seemed so unnecessary. I'd rather be an unnecessary to the crime. I'd rather eat the gods and spit out their bones of contention. I'd rather be flying, free, like my birdie friends, but not like those vain angels with their agendi to save and further by pawnsy schemings. Unscrew that!
As the world implodes upon its ziggurated pile of worshipped dung, I smell fresher aire down our weary road. But, here and now and onwardly, oh, how it be stinkin', stinkin' to the highest heaven of all that the nutballs have foisted upon the sheepish mob. Whether it's the Dow Dei Kaching or the Great God Amighty, this pile of the fissile and unfissile density is exploding in ever weirder twisting reactive turns. Are the guns blazin', or what!?! The boymen are popping a cap! Copycat that Houston. We have a problem.....
As Obama calls for the end of nuclear madness, some crazedpot killed some coppers cuz he believes the Prez is going to take his guns'n'ammo. Homeland insecurity is rife and rifled. Gun sales have gone berserk since election day. America, the home of the depraved and unfree, exports more weapons than all the rest of the world. People are armed to the teeth; they're flossing with them, champing at the bits and pieces of their fractured vision. As I've said many a time: It's Armedandgetiton.
Turns out Homeland Security is going to build a massive complex, the biggest deal since the Pentagon (could there be an parallels?), on the site of St. Elizabeths insane asylum in D.C. Ain't that just perfect. Paranoid schismphrenia. Watch your blowback boys. You're coming to get yourself.....
I thought Barack was going to be assassinated, by bullet or character attack, in Turkey. Turns out they uncovered some plot to kill him over thar. The right wingers claim that the Prez's administration said such in order to garner sympathy and backing. In a bold speech, the O man spoke of his and America's Islamic heritage. That's his death sentence right there. The nuts will go after him more viciously than ever. He's their InFidel, their CommieMommy whom they must kill at any cost.
Barack's meteoric rise will have its meteoric fall. He's iconic. He's Linkin'. He presages a better world, but won't live to see the day. Instead, he'll see the daze of the end times of Entropic Thunder. Have you noticed that it's all falling apart? I know that you of The Secretions clan of the Positrons see otherwise, but we haven't seen this cyclic passage for 26,000 plus years and we doth forget. On the Wheel, all good things come to the other end, called bad.... until, people get through it to the other side, which if you let it all fall apart, doesn't have sides; it's called being. Being, without good/bad, is peaceful and allowing and considerate and playful. No where to go, no chopping woulds or carrying whatever.
Going for the Gold, The GOD, the Good has whipped us into a sub mission, grinding in the underbelly world, to the very stuffings that we have longed to transcend/escape. All that we have ignored is back...... and frothy. We've topped out all the way to bottom feeding. We chop everything and carry whatever in stupid circles while thinking we are going to the promised landing of everbetterrightglory. Ugh. Here's a variety pack of Entropic Thunderings as civilization whimpers in the winds of change...
Some family successfully sued a funeral home cuz they realized that their six foot seven inch dearly dead beloved had fit too neatly into the standard coffin. By inglorious exhumation they discovered that the mortician had chopped the feller's legs off to make him fit. Entropic Thunder prevails.
The US is considering, and the Euros are doing it again, instituting tax rebates on new car purchases if you junk your old car. The logic is that it saves energy/pollution if you junk the old, messy thang. The endless blind spot is that it takes tremendous energy and pollution to make a new one! Oopsie. Entropic Thunder rides again.
Throughout America's waters, boat owners are abandoning/sinking their boats cuz they can't keep up with the cost of ownership. Instead of utilizing the craft of the craft, they destroy, and pollute and damage. We are more sunk than anyone realizes. Entropic Thunder sails on.
Our manufacturing capacity usage is now the lowest it has been since WWII. We bubbled up credit inflated demand for shit we don't need and now it's more than obvious. The first command of fascist patriotic duty, a day or two after 9/11, was: shop. Economists say that's the answer to our current dilemma. As empire collapses, the logic of: more illness oughta cure our ills becomes oh so evident. Entropic Thunder marches on.
Botox isn't new, but it is ever so popular. A new product is coming on line to compete with it. Erasure of the exquisitely organized lines of a face's life story must now be dumbed to flaccid inexpression, the Zomboni look, smooth as ice. Beauty is scam deep. Entropic Thunder shines its dullness upon our countenance.
In many cities, the banks are doing what they call walkaways. They don't foreclose on the home that the owner can no longer pay for because they're out of work and the payment ballooned. They just walk, leaving the owner with all the costs of dilapidation, vandalism and taxes cuz the bank loaned some poor, marginalized sucker a piece of overpriced worthless shitupon American Dream. Cities are as overwhelmed as the crushed owner. Properties and neighborhoods and society rot...... while the precious banker gets bailed and bonused. Entropic Thunder pays off in spades. Ya dig?
The vaunted Porsche is now often made in Finland. They truck all the bits in and then hide the serial numbering that reveals whether it's vaunted German craftsmanship or whether the whole charade is just Finnished. Entropic Thunder cruises down the Autobahnal.
They are developing drugs that will erase your nasty memories, those little karmic ticklers that remind you that you have some unconscious business in your organization. Just rest in your LazyVoid chair and click your life remotely..... Entropic Thunder forgets everything to sell the new and improved.
In the Daze of the Locusts department: Hoards of people are up in the San Gabriel mountains above Los Angeles panning for gold. Out of work, out of luck and out of their minds, they seek to pluck lucre filthily from the wee bits of flowing water that the LA basin offers, while raping every little fishy and reed and Gaia's thinning hair along the way. Entropic Thunder crawls on.
Turns out the banks are much more in debt than consumers. Looks like the government is too. Guess who's left holding the bag o' gold and who's holding the bag o' lead. Entropic Thunder alchemizes magically shazzam and you can bank on that cuz you have to give them credit for that 'til debt do you parse.
Where there's thunder, there's lightning. In this case, enlightening. We can wake up and smell the neuroses. Our own first and then the system's. Face what is unconscious, what is ignorant. Therein lies the suffering lies. Be instead of believe. Choose instead of control uncontrollably. Play with what is as it is. Or suck ass and die another stooped day on the Wheel to Fortune....
Tis Full Mania today, April 9, at 7:56 am PDT. Mars is lining up with Uranus in Pisces. Jupiter is lining up with Neptune in Aquarius. Things are quaking up and drowning in the morass, the mire, the avoided shadows of ignorance. It all comes to light, faster than you can shake the shit at it. It gets even stranger as Venus backs into Pisces on 4/11, later to go direct and meet up Mars in the last degree of the Zodiac on 4/21. Earth Day, the 22nd is going to be a violent motherfucker as Mars goes into Aries that day. The war for and against Gaia is hotter than hot. She'll shrug repeatedly in the days and years ahead.
Allow the rage, but don't beat the deadened horse. We've been dumb and deaf for way too long. Gentle can undo it, if rage is allowed. ReChoice and let be. As you do, as we do, heat comes off, tears flow. If we don't, tsunami and brimstone reign and crush the infidelities. Madness will continue mostly unabated. Damage has been done and ignored for so long in the collective and personal psyche that it is bound to express ugly and with sheer distortion. It's a long haul. Take care, breathe, play and eyes wide open. There's everything to fear, but that's fear itself. It's not you. Unbear and grin in it as you can. I'm with you.
The Obama's have a Rabbi, in the family. Happy Passover and Shalom! Michelle's cousin is Rabbi Capers Funnye. No shit. I got that out of the NY Times. I love the NY Times. You benefit from it cuz I get much of my best reportage from them. I just wrote them to thank them. They're having trouble just like me. How to make a go of it on the web. This is a hot issue. AP is taking on Google about fair use/ripoff: using others journalistic efforts for your own profit.
The Web has blown it all open, just like music and intellectual property rights. It won't settle for a long time. Free is free. Responsibility for other's work and art is important indeed. Otherwise, we dry up and blow away, after chopping off ears from our life. It's all unfair really. Ask anyone, they'll piss and moan if they're honest. What I see is that down the road sooner or later, we will choose to value what we actually value, considering it all. We begin by valuing the underclasses, those colored differently; we value women and we stop devaluing men and their feelings. These are End Times. Time to end what has been unconscious.
Art is a huge investment by the artist. We toil many unseen hours. So do many others. Praise and profits be to them as well. Living fully and expressing it deserves a full living. If not, Walmart wins, and they've already won. Who ya gonna call for ghost bustin'?
I like the way Michelle Obama and the Prez are taking the bullshit out of power, and that they are humanizing whatever they touch. No matter politics and policy.... This is magnificent. They are being. That's what's real. Blackhouse is beautiful! Michelle, our belle... these are words (and actions) that go together well, our Michelle. She genuinely touched the Queen of England. The archetypes shuddered and melted. Praise be!
Along with the oddity of Sean Penn signing up to play Larry in a Three Stooges movie, R. Crumb is completing a two hundred page book of Genesis, that's in the Bible. If the world actually comes to an end, it's cuz God smote us for allowing R. Crumb to cartoonify Creation in his wondrous way.
I sure do like the UK singers Duffy and Adele. Check out these soulful ladies. Adele really knocked Letterman the other week, and he's seen a lot o' music. Gals got guts. Long may they glory.
Natasha Richardson, the actress who just skied off the mortal coil, and Malia Obama, Barack and Michele's eldest daughter, are both Grand Crossers in Fixed Signs. Natasha's is very potent around the power points: Neptune in Scorpio opposed to Sun in Taurus crossed to Mars in Leo opposed to Saturn in Aquarius. Princess Malia has her planets in earlier portions of the Fixed Signs: Mercury in Leo opposed to Uranus in Aquarius crossed to Saturn in Taurus opposed to Moon in Scorpio.
Miss Malia is a 4th of July babe. Who do you think wanted to get into the Whitehouse? She's a true shiner. I said at election time that I would write about her. Here we are. In my work I read Saturn as her papa, the Moon as her mama. This girl is in between them, bridge and buffer, the merry linkin'. Pops is Buddha Boy; Ma is Kali Ma. Zap! Malia is wired for that shift!
She's of the late 1990's clan when Uranus and Neptune were in early Aquarius, the Sign that Uranus rules. The clearest of their generation do indeed carry the Aquarian Age, the Audacity of Change. She is an icon, a true and fine one with great heart and diamond brilliance.
I see Mademoiselle Malia holding fine imagination and inspiration for youth and old couth. The cross she bears, she bares as not a burden, but as an existential potency. What's a girl to do? Whatever she wants to.... with elegance and justice for all.
Natasha had run her course. She was brilliant and real. Life hurt in a big way for this fine filly of purebred actors. Liam would understand that she was the elder and he the boy/man who buoyed her. Despite his near death dances, beauty went before age. Natasha was auld before her tyme......
She said she was quite plump when she was young, and still felt that way, despite her gorgeousity. I wondered if she'd drank a wee dram or two in the pain of it all. Just a feeling, nothing that I read. She understood and stood under addiction as so many expressers extraordinaire do. She was shy, she shied, in the face of the suffering she could not avoid, but valiantly expressed anyway.
An actor's actor has no second act, no persona in which to hide. The cross she bore bared her heart such that the barren heart was revealed and transcended by simple, direct grace. I'm surprised she ever talked, let alone performed. Stutters have no problem singing...... This lady of fine being had to perform because she was seldom seen, seldom heard, as she was.
I've seen this with some of my clients over the years. She was turned in to the point that she curved out. She couldn't help herself, so she died, exited stage right. Her passing slammed a lot of folks. Her nature was deeply provocative, with elegance and true subtlety.
Her voltage was considerable as a transformer. She could carry big charges of emotion and archetype, stepping down the voltage to deliver the electric pulse such that the receiver could manage and absorb the jolt. Effective she was.
Natasha also bears a Grand Trine: Venus Aries, Mars Leo and Moon Sagittarius. The fire of passion and authenticity, of presence and perception burned bright for this jewel. With both complete geometries of the cross and the trinity, she'd had more than enough. But in that she never felt she was enough, that it was too much to bear. So this atlass shrugged and blew her brain out in a remarkable way. By her own admittance, she found life too shocking, in her family and in its prosecution, and in the end, it ended in shock, mercifully. No drag. No limp. No stutter steps. She sang goodbye and by, a real stunner, a light unto us all.
Dear Readers: I'll keep playing for you, here on the cyber corner, if you'll kindly drop some coinage of the realm in my PayPail. Thanks for your consideration. Singing in the rain.....

April First, Aught Nine
Things are queerer than a gay pride parade. Life is stranger than function. Fool costs are rising. Yes, the stars are on the move and in the groove, so let's have a look see, whaddya say sparkies.
There's a bad Moon on the rise, if you give credence to the rising clear waters of this old fogerty. Aquarius has Aged, like fine cheesiness. Cancer is the Sign of disease. Taurus runs rings around the Zodiac. Despite popular opinion, Aries is a Fireies Sign and Aquarius bears no Water. Capricorn is better on the cob, though it is symbolic of Pop. Libra is seldom librated. Pisces is like a fish in Water. Gemini is too divided four octomoms. Scorpio is stingy, but not with their money, if you get the point. Sagittarians should always wear Arrow shirts. Leo is not DiCapriocorn. Always use extra Virgo olive oil for the perfect salad dresser.
God's Sun has his second coming every morning of tomorrow...... Mercury poisoning makes you think retrogradely. Venus envy Mars sexual relations. Jumpin' Jupiter, I Satonanurn and it hurts more than Uranus, said Pluto. You can't listen to Neptunes unless you download them from the Apple of your ipod. Verily, I can't tell my ascendant from a whole in the grounding, but at least I've kept my node clean while having too many Chirons in the Fire. It's all a horrorscope...
Actually factually, Mars in Pisces opposes Saturn in Virgo on 4/4, along with Pluto going retrograde in Capricorn that day. It just gets weirder and wilder after that. Snap, crackle, pop! Nice krispies. These are apocalyptic times. Words must become non-linear requiring poem de terre.......
We are on the horns of dilemma for we have gored the sacred cow. Bull markets bear ill, atrampling up and down for lucre filthy in the greed indeed. The End is not near. It is fear, with the fragrance of hope hung by a rope scented like dope beyond the scope unable to cope. Pluto plies the underworldly shadow of skankin' bankin', where the suits abound unbound wholly rollering the ministers of finance like fine ants at the picnic at black rock, honey can you spare a diametrically opposed option for your piecemeal existence, but you must scratch for it, verminantly.....
Borders line the personality, flipping while flopping in the high noon Dei sun. War wearies the edges of reason between what is right and what is wronged putting the cartels before the hoarse crowds of lost and foundering souls. Soldiers disgorge from their Barack, flight to fight, high in the reaches of time gone the same, ground insane, fought in frought ways beyond any means sustainable except by burning the children......
The Good Noose encircles the neck of the woulds that badly knead what hurts in all of us, hurtling to imprisoned naught never to see the light of Dei in blight of lowing cowed pain..... fields of ignorance, fields of ignorance, fields of ignorance. The hellish trinity lets loose endless fission without vision salting each incision of cutting cold apart, hiding in fear of those dark, darkening the fear of those unloved, dying to be born free from the sins of the furthering fateful furies.
Oh come unto noiseless being. Reach without limit in delight. Sing for the song of it. All is elsewhere and elsewhy, but let it not be you. For thine is the glory beyond story. Without name and number. As you are, as you be. So.
Lay down your burdens. Have a look. Valuate. Prioritize being you. Give unto Caesar what gives you seizure. Unlord and freely be...... Be, a credit to yourself, not debt set on the Race of rat a tit for tat. The herd doesn't listen. It looks good before it leads badly. Go slowly your own way. Do look back and let it go. Unknow the fear and......
ReChoice.

Fo' real: Did you know that Shrek means monster in Yiddish? Tina, did you know that Fey means slightly insane? Hey Prez: Barak, in the Bible, means thunder or in vain. For the first two months of 2009, suicide was the leading cause of death in the US armed forces. Sean Penn has signed on to be Larry in a Three Stooges movie.
I've noticed that crop circles are most likely created by sound. Check out Google/YouTube for: sound and form. Interesting visuals there. Music is form, but it is form beyond the bounds of three dimensions. It is Nama/Rupa - name and form, as the Hindus say. For years I've watched the sound of my words affecting people as I speak. Because of dyslexia, I learned to speak correctly by saying the words first, in a nanosecond, in my head. When I write to you here, I speak to you (not think to you) for benefit of your inner ear and now. I listen you sayfully.
For my work, an astrology chart is a kind of sonogram of karmic geometry. I see/hear/feel your patterns. Consider a session with me. You'll be amazed how I can be with you, and what transformation that will offer you. You are music to me. My voice is a resonant reflection to you for the realization of your being. You can unhinge from your suffering and play freely.
I was saved as a young boy when I heard Mahalia Jackson sing on TV in the 1950's. I had imploded early in life because of the relentless gray suffering everywhere. But her sound, her resonance buoyed me, loved me, soared my sorry soul. Check her out on YouTube; in particular: How I Got Over. It's a surreal scratchy TV image, but it really captures her with her people, the people of Chicago on whose edges I lived when I was young. Mahalia had an almighty grim childhood, as was so very common in those days, and I imagine still is too much today. She lived to sing of her salvation, how she got over. She's my cosmic mama, my Maha Ma, the song of my heart.
While you're YouTubing, check out the sonorance of Kelly Joe Phelps on his tune: Piece by Piece. His guitar playing is par excellence and pure delight. His singing rides the Silver Chord. Adele was terrific on Letterman the other night. She brings it. Mahalia sang like how I live in my heart of hearts, and how I write to you. My eyes are blue from living and singing the blues. I speak to you from out of the blue to open your blue sky of being you.
It still surprises me that people have hardly had any sessions with me for two plus years. It seems that folks think I'm crazy. I'm just transparent. Ironically I'm more helpful than ever before. I've shed, oh have I shed, and I can sing your song.
Being is the only way through this vale of tears and tribulations. Believing belies one's being. Doing life only deepens the rut, the tunnel through which you seek the light that never is reached in the premise of promise. My sessions, being with me, reflect your being through illumination of the tangle of your patterns which you are not, so that you can choose, so that you can ReChoice... say hallelujah.
Wishin' and hopin' just don't cut the suffering anymore. They cover, but only a skiff, with a thin and weary varnish. Come home to your self and give up the chase. I am here, to hear, and reflect you beyond the suffering.
Foolishly wise guided,
Mark
P. S. Given the economy of our times. My sessions are slideful in their price, if you've got the blues. Don't be shy. Be and shine.

Onweird, On Wu Wei
March 26, 2009
We are onward with Aries, along with a lessening of Pisces, for now.
Likely you've a bit more spring in your step, but the grinding existential background noise can be heavy contrast to the renew cycling of the zodiacal year. Mars is joining Uranus in Pisces as they oppose to lonely Saturn in Virgo on the other side of the wheel. Entropy, the melting of organization and available resource flow, pulls hard at the 3D, even as buoyancy and change march on. Fine/offal is a strange mix.
Also mounting is the conjunction of Jupiter and Neptune in Aquarius. An abundance of shocking occurrences do/will proliferate. Natasha Richardson's passing was iconic. She spoke years earlier of how life comes along and thwacks you. The dear brilliant woman was prescient.
The clever schemes of Clinton and the lame fuck precedency of Bush have come glaringly to light. The public has been robbed. Nothing new in that, but full awareness of the complex audacity hits us hard. Pawnsy, is it not? John Stewart spoke eloquently of how people's pensions represent their life's work and of the horrid arrogance of the greederati who play polo with such proceeds. The powerful always privatize profits and socialize costs. Will the proletariat go conletariat, or will they eat, shit and dye in the wool?
Corporate glam is the world's royalty trance. 401krumbs only support the stack market for those of the preferred class. Enough middlings and upper middlings get by and get through with their gulf course green for look good purpose driven liveliness, with a slather of The Secret arming them against the pits. The church of the Ladder/Dei saintifies their climb, while inherently subcursing the lowing cattle. Are we really ready to be done with the pyramid schemings of it all?
The last Uranus/Pluto opposition in the late 1960's was rife with rioting in the streets. I can't say that I see much gumption in the downtrodden. We shan't allow the Security of the Homeland to be disturbed......
But in the deep psyche, tsunami and quake and sturm und drang are riled, even if derailed. The energy of the mass, of the shadow, the dark matter..... it awaits eruption. September eleven was a beautiful day. Is "It's all good"?
Pluto goes retrograde 4/4. The walls don't come down; they come in.
Tightened screws break loosely. Order is dissed. The real crazy making times are when the shift is hitting the fantastic and everyone is just so fine. Civilization has been insisting on having a nice daze for a long time. What goes around comes around polarized. That's the pole shift for ya. It has already begun.
April powers bring May Day showers. Cover your assets as best you can.
The commercial real estate market will get crunchy as businesses default on their rent. There's a whole other round of derivative derangement awaiting the fall. All the money that is looking to go somewhere can be spent in the rush of low tide prices before the real tsunami rushes in. Wallmartians are landing in a crush groove. Gaia quakes. Will humanity wake?
Personally be with what is as it is, even though apparency is stranger than fiction. We're all crazy to think.... So unthink and choose instead. Choose for what you want even as it melts. There's no sense to it. There's a great deal of angstiety. There's nothing to do about it.
You it us are coming undone. It is end times. So see the end of your projections and choose beyond begatting. Being is who you are. It is your refuge in the midst of the grind. Go not in nor up. Just be and see. The light is no longer at the tunnel. It is in the tunnel.
Be well,
Mark

Sprung
March 17, 2009
Happy Sprung, Spring also. May you Equinauts live balancefully, night and day, day and night, and that things go North for ya! Ole Aries comes to town on 3/20 at 4:44 am PDT. It'll help, like always. The blahs, SAD, cabin fever, incessant suicidal tendencies with concomitant postal urges, and the like..... can be aired out in the sunny disposition of new beginnings, as the wheel turns.
Ain't it all funny in a tense, amorphous, where'd I leave my life keys, kinda way? The ongoing, multi year tension of Saturn in Virgo opposed to Uranus in Pisces Marches on, Idely. So there's the Idely feeling.
There's the where'd half of the wealth go feeling. There's the wholly shift, the world is falling apart and becoming something I can't fathom but it is new, sorta brave, green eco socialist about face book homeland insecurity world feeling.
The whole deal echoes back to 1968ish (the last time Saturn/Uranus opposed in the same but swapped Signs) when it all went up in flames and the dream died and an important black leader was snuffed, which ignited hell and engendered serious entropy.
I don't get a good feeling about Barack going to Turkey in April. We've never had a Prez die or be killed abroad. I smell a Turkey shoot, either literally, or by dark government ploys of character assassination. Taking away Corpos' bonuses may actually be more transgressive than MLK calling for all those black soldiers to come home from Nam. I sense that Obama is floating in a time warp of Hope, even as he's being very proactive. As I write this, it seems that the markets and public vibe are on the upswing. The Prez is a rebounder much more than a dribbler. But I don't see the slam/dunk, except in slams and dunks of a rather more dire sort.
April is a weird one. All the way through, but especially from the middle on. It looks more than taxing. The dreaminess is substantial, but so is the underbelly. Have folks and the collective really faced their bottom? If not, the hoped for uptick from hitting the bottom, may not materialize as people expect. I'm saying there's a whole lot o'
bottom left on the table, ready to fall off.
Can you say/see Low Bottomy? Up is a very nervous tic right now.
Efficiencies and flow have been stripped out of trade. Real chunky prices and shortages and not possibles loom. Entropa is rampant.
Willing and Gooding can't cut this musty turd. It smells, because we've fouled our nest and then some, for a long time.
As I've said before, folks are realizing, pretty much semi to sub consciously, that this isn't a Depression. It's an Oppression. We winked while the hoods took us to the gleaners. Wii played the Game.
And it sucks. Most folks seem just fine. Many, many are hurting so very badly. More deeply are the systemic ills, the burned away base, the Ignorance.
The military now rejects seventy five per cent of applicants. Folks have gotten really dumb. Don't you notice? The bottom line is lined with bottom, scraping by. This is rapidly falling Empire stuff. All who are Roamin are lost, given to Caesars, twitching to the drumbeat of the War of the Worlds as the dimensions collapse and the walls come tumbling down, only to be made thick for Security by the Fascistnistas.
The Great Walmart of China has cheapened us in every way. We watched the bottom line. What ya saw is what we got. We've raped it all, cheaply........ and you have to give them credit for that....... and even that has fallen apartheid.
The New Agers and the Gated Communitizers all froth a creed of parallel
worlds: those on High and those who take the garbage in and out for nothing less than pinata wages. They claim that this is the promised land, the Illuminataed leading us through the Golden Arches, either to Prosperville or Green Acres or Haven on Earth or JC's Goodtopia.
But...... it's always split all ways. There's nothing new under the Sun or beyond it. The software of Creation makes the spectral rainbow selling precious climbliness Right on up the wrungs of Hierarchy. You too can be on Top, the risen Cream, the Anointed Oneness....
Every 26,000ish year, the Game gets revealed. The Game is entropifying like a smotherforker. The stocks have split and crumbled into great dividedends. The Light at the End of the Funnel is a slippery slope.
The Polar is shifting alright, so that you can see the Game.
This is not the final chapter nor the first stanza. It's just beeswax as usual, but the bees wane...... leaving you with itchy Hives, stored projections of honeyed promises and premises that now you can perceive, if you choose. If you don't perceive, what you conceive will be prepackaged with instant karma: big ups and downs, big reversals of fortune, big boomerangsts.
There's nothing to be done about it. Therein lies the burn. We all face our Undoing. So undo and relax in doing way less, and therefore way less harm, and therefore way less wearing and tearing about like a sprung chicken with its head off cut. You can get rid of what is caked and not eat it twice.
Your being, who you are, is your choice. If you do to be something, followed by getting something to be somebody..., well, that is Sufferjet City, everafter burners on full......
Haste not, want not. Come to your senses. They are pretty cool if ya just fool around with them, naturally, without stories smothered on top. Life is complexed, but your being is simple. Choose, or snoozelose in the full gainer of diving into the Dream that ain't ever you.
Let love happen. Don't worship or depend on it. Be, be with. Simple.
Adorable. Easy, despite life's hardness. The delight of being together is the result of being, not together. Let go of the projections, the future, the hope hoops. Don't chop wood. Admire it. Don't carry water.
Listen to it burble. If you see the Buddha, so what. Get off of Pathology. Being Here/Now is silly distraction. Be. End of story. Just so.

Delight Savoring Time
March 3, 2009
Happy Full Moon to y'all. It's bizarreness as usual. The dull drums
down beat and all that jazz. Whatchya gonna do? Because of rampant
suffering, let's just have some fun. The planets spin fishfully for a
while. Venus is retrograde until the ides of April. Spring arrives on
March 20th. It has become so absurd in this melting of life as we've
known it..........
Sooooo..... for the chuckles....... Let us enjoy Delight Savoring Time.
Here's some silliness to tide you over the humps.
A tabloid for our times..........
The Notional Inspirer - by Mark Herbert Krueger
"All the Fits New to Print"
Michael Phelps has been taking a lot of hits lately. Perhaps the
chlorine has given him one too many laps in the gene pool. In an NI
exclusive..... He's started a new band called ME2 and changed his name
to Bongo.
Our Hollowood reporter, Whoraldo Despairo, has uncovered shocking news
of Christian Bail's mega prequel - BatBoy - in which the dark knight
hangs upside down as a manmalian pinata, and takes his hits. Blow by
blow, this job smells of Oscar.
It has been revealed that in a parallel universe, Get a Life, there is
a popular sex magazine entitled PlagueBoy. You read it here first! The
publisher, Huge Heifer, whose motto is D' Cup Runneth Over, panders to
sects' appeal with off center folds tongue in cheek patter for the
arseinist who's on fire with a hunka hunka burnin' love.
Ghandi's floss has been auctioned for nearly a million rupees at
Sotheby's with proceeds donated to the British Museum of Oral Peace.

flagellatio. Regis will doctor Phil's bin of drool advice as the
University of Our Lady of Dry Humps marching badinage displays their
signature tarantella before wide eyed tots.

Sterling Opera. After a stupendous run, The Coloured People, will be
touring the USA as a remake: Slaves On Ice, starring Tanya Harding and
Michael Vick. You read it here first, and you don't know why!

wipe away those banal worries. Just two sheets and you're good to go.
Enjoy easy shifts with Tabloids.

coal will prevent green house gasiness. Paddy melts glacial rice. All
hope is lost. Prepare to die.

crowing at the gym. Her step routine is fetching. In other news, let's
face it: the president's bod is smokin'; check out his butt!
The stock market has chickened out. Bullion plummets. Here's the beef:
Can I resoup my losses? Notional Inspirers want to know!

Whoa or Woe
February 25, 2009
How y'all be? I watch and I wonder, more watchful than wonderful. The
Prez sez we'll get out of the drain spin, ever onward to righting the
ship of state. I still smell systemic rot that his proposals don't
really face. Hope and rah rah are bubbles. Wanna bank on that? Congress
responded with a bad case of the clap, ever profligating. The money is
funny. The power is sour. The answers are questionable.
Tilting the economy to windmills....... I just don't see it working in
the magic bullet way. All of this shift will be on the back of
exceedingly more expensive resources, even with deflation. Growth
capitalism is built on the vanities of enslaving the powerless and
raping Gaia. I say it's time to stop. I mean stop. Whoa will end the
woe. Go go go will continue to break the bank, the commons, the wellth.
More energy and more stuff are not any kind of answer that'll spare us
suffering, even if it is the vanity of the Green. Spending and working
and spending. Who kneads it? The corporate cancer needs it. Post WWII
corporate taxes went from something like forty per cent to something
like single digit per cent, or lower. That's fucked in my opinion. It
is never mentioned in the equation is it. Bullshit like mutual fundage
and 401notOK, and the proposed stockmarketing of Social Security are
all meant to prop up the Ponzi scheme of ripping off the bottom of the
pyramid in order to keep those glory boys in the suits flying high.
Scumbag billionaire is the name of the game. It stinks.
Do you know that Food is now thoroughly screwed? Some fella in Oregon
tried to make it for one year buying his food locally in WA and OR. He
quit. Can't do it. Everything has been so corporatized, so divided and
conquered, that he found he couldn't sustain his diet, even while
driving all over tarnation. Specialization for purposes of keeping
prices low has kept labor broke and autonomy defeated. Affordable and
available food comes from far and wide. The mixed farming of a century
ago, and all adjunct cottage industries, is non existent which means
that there is no way to sustain locally, so we think globally, to our
detriment.
The grains that people eat all around the world are now owned by a few
companies. The noose is tightening. All foods are being genetically
modified, including the critters. They are GM'd so that they can be
patented and owned. After reading some various articles, it has become
apparent that the mystery of the bird flu had little to do with bumping
up Big Pharma profits. The purpose was to destroy everyone (especially
in Asia, though the effects were world wide) who raised chickens in
their backyard or community. By scaring folks with nastiness and dread,
the rule makers set up high cost testing and culture practices that are
making it impossible for anyone to raise their own food in their own
community. Only the corporations can make the economies of scale to
create these extremely neo barbaric factory farms that work
economically for them while sickening everyone and everything at the
same time.
We've gotten too big for our breeches. The levies break upon our
budgets. If you control food, you control every one. It is already a
done deal........
Natural gas wells have raped the intermountain west in America. Now
they want to string heaps of new power lines and endless wind
generation farms in the heartland. That shit is awful if you live next
to it. It all kills sooooo many birds. I weep and rage at the thought
of this. And they call it Green.....
It's just New Greed.
Whoa or Woe.
I've been with all of this for forty years. I was hip to the earliest
ecology and alternative energy info because of the cool resources that
came through the University of Michigan community back in the day. To
some extent we dreamed of wind farms and organic food. They're coming
to pass and they are not going to end suffering. It takes resources to
make these sorts of innovations. The payoff is less than projected. The
hope/change/good thing keeps us all blind.
It's time for the First World to learn from indigeny. It's time to go
small. It's time to let the car industry, the road industry, the
airplane industry and on and on.... die. There, I said it. Bigger and
better sucks. We have waaaaay toooooo much of a goooood thing. If you
just look around, you can see that bad things happen all over the
place, out of sight out of mind, and that ignorance has caught up with
us.
Entropy is happening on a grand scale because we got so very organized
in the blink of an historic eye. Eco systems, human systems, financial
systems and the psyche collective and personal are breaking down
because we pyramided them all up pharoahnically. Likewise with mounting
the gods up to high heavens. It is all collapsing because it is
foolery. Power corrupts because of ignorance.
The way through is to be with what is as it is and make choices:
simply. Fancy solutions with Green power or Spiritual power or what has
you..... not gonna work, just gonna work ya, with ever diminishing
returns, returns called karma, blowback, consequences of ignorances. If
you don't face your shadow, your shadow becomes your face. The vanity
of Light and Right has lead to darkness fighting over what is left. We
gnaw on our own bones, after we've gnawed on others'.
The trance has broken. New entrances to New Glories will now come
crashing down before they even take flight. Meanwhile, there'll be
fight over every silly notion, every power scam, hoping we can say we
Made Off with the precious.....
They've been calling us consumers for many years. I remember when they
didn't. We were citizens. Even that was questionable. The State wants
to keep us in a state. I say we become prosumers. If whatever we are
doing doesn't serve wellth, then don't buy it. Let the roads erode. Let
the air clear. Let us walkabout, quietly, for we make too much noise in
every way every day.
We have been split from our being and our locale. Millions upon
millions of folks are consuming virtual whatever on their fucking
phones. The intimacy of Facebook is shamful, distorted per corporatized
divisions and conquerings. We grow tesque. Haven't you spent most of
your day touching electrical things instead of your loved ones? Ugh. We
all suffer in the trappings....
Biology is being transcended. I'm not a big fan of embodiment, so I do
understand. But I miss the delightful serendipity of nature, of our
human nature as well as Nature, so I'm choosing more for it rather than
living my life and creativity on a phone that does everyfuckingthing.
Last night I opened the door and found a tree frog on the doorstep.
Today we saw a kingfisher. Praise be. That's good fortune.....
The other week I had the pleasure to see the great pianist McCoy Tyner.
It had been thirty plus years since my last encounter with this
wonderful being. He blew us away, far away, sublimely, potently. His
drummer, Eric Gravatt, I had seen with Weather Report all those decades
ago as well. I wept with the joy of such crispy crunchy explosions of
sonic love incarnate. A good drummer is next to godliness. There are
very few of them. His story is touching. After such early promise and
demand, Gravatt fell out of the music world and worked for twenty years
as a Minnesota prison guard. Only in recent years has he come back to
playing. Oh man! I'm so glad that he is back. His ringing cymbal is a
ringing symbol that we can come back after years in the trenches. Can
you dig it? Can you play it? Yes We Can.....
Austin City Limits had a great Valentine's show with Duffy. Please
check her out. She's got a deep woman's soul. Wiki her story if you
like. She's unique. Another story of moving through some considerable
madness on to playing and expressing herself as she is. She's a Cancer
like me and says that every fifteen shows or something she breaks down
into tears when she's performing. I'm like that. I understand that kind
of edge and care.
And by the way, if you are lonely, if you are tired, if you are
hurting.... please let my words embrace you. I mean it. I am here for
you with you. Being, together being.... it's all that really is real.
It is all coming and going faster than we can stand. Many of us are
brought to our needs and beyond. The noise and suffering can be immense
and unbearable at times. Unbear it. Unload. I am with you. I weep and
laugh with you. I listen to you. Be and let it all play out and in and
around and around as it does. Be. I be with you.
In January, American armed forces had more suicides than war deaths.
There's something poetic about that. Perhaps we've turned a very odd
corner. Perhaps we've had enough. Chief Joseph said some years ago:
From this day forward, I will war no more. I hope the soldiers suicide
no more, as well.
Sully, the Hudson Hero pilot, testified to Congress the other day. That
great poor sucker said that his airline had already gutted forty per
cent of his pay and had taken his pension from him before he and his
passengers walked on water. Wow. Sullied. Can you feel and smell the
rot in the system? It is awakening to this stench and choosing beyond
it, that we'll find dissolutions of our suffering rather than solutions
to our problems that endlessly create more problems to be solved.
OctoMom seems to be a special victim to the MedicoMadness. She's gone
to more collagen than college, but the fruit of her womb is exorbitant
by policy. Turns out that in other parts of the world, this in vitro
crap deposits just one embryo in the oven. But here, as policy, they
put it multiples for more is better. Now they're finding that the in
vitro in digos are quite debilitated, and the monstrosity goes on.
This PreLife/PreDeath madness has essentially been ruination. It's all
been doctored horribly in my opinion. Pluto in Capricorn is going to
make it so very obvious how insane the life/death portal game is. Going
Repro and sustaining Life is madness. So are pets and the whole vain
pile of unfaced psychic sludge that projects out infectively, with all
the offensive defenses included. The NY Times Sunday magazine the other
week had a truly bizarre article about Assistance Animals. Folks are
actually walking around stores with guide miniature horses, I shit you
not.
The crazy chimp lady had her best friend's face and hands chewed off
when chumpedanzee went postal after living like a human for many years.
She bonded with bonzo after her husband died. Crossing the species
boundary like this is a horror show. The animals suffer soooooo much.
The people only get stupider and stoopeder. If ya love the apes, go sit
in the jungle and put your life on the line against poachers hunting
for bushmeat for chrissake; and help the poachers, too.
The astrologic tension carries on with Uranus in Pisces opposed to
Saturn in Virgo. We're with this 'til well into 2010. The cops of
America are predicting really nasty stuff on the streets this summer.
Phoenix now has the second highest rate of kidnapping in the world. We
last had this astrologic tension in the later 1960's. Cities burned.
Communities burned. Trust burned.
Disintegration is occurring rapidly. Hope/Change covers it. Don't blame
me for saying it. If folks wake up to the shadow, the shadow will be
lightened. Seeking enlightenment and entitlement has maintained
ignorance, and that shit ain't bliss. The pretense of pretend is now
being revealed. Obama sits on this fence. He looks small to me. The
President really can't do anything much about all this. It is up to us,
but we've dug a deep hole of ignoring suffering while glorying.
As I've said before, depression is really oppression. Ending oppression
is primary. That starts in our own lives. That's why so much baggage is
falling off of us. As it falls away, we feel just how tired and sore we
are. The relief may feel at first like soar, but I suspect there's more
sore feelings gonna out in the days ahead.
Let the crap feelings come up. Don't make them real. Realize your own
being and let this calcified, oppressed pile of ignorance come up and
off of you. Denial and transcendence work hand in hand to keep your
being down, while maintaining the vain ignorance of power and control.
See and let be.
With a bunch of planets in Aquarius yet, there's still roiling in all
manner of disconnects. Getting It together keeps you and everyone
apart. Let It fall apart. Let be. Picking up the pieces ain't peaceful.
Simple being will see you through. Willing will give you major willies,
and everyone else, too. The future can't be seen because the
projections from the past are melting. Day be day, more will be
revealed. Oh ya! Revelations galore! What we do with all that, there's
the edgy fun....
Piscesness still maintains the swampy hangover of the last couple of
millennia. Things are fishy. Spring approaches. Likely you're feeling
some spring in your step. Good on ya. Dance on in spite of the blight.
Take the time for quiet. Rest despite the restlessness. It has been
very hard to sleep and very hard to stay awake. The Dream if coming off
of you, if you so choose. There's no place to go, though up and down
are prominent in manifestation. Unsteady as we go, but we go. Being is
simple so let simple be. Stay in touch. It is so easy to fall into the
pit. Stay in touch. I'm listening with you.
Soft, trembling upper lip, allowing smile for the grin of it,
Mark

The Wisdom of PlayDough
February 12, 2009
Pisces season is coming on. It's real Aquarian yet, but the Sun enters
o'Fishily on the 18th, with Mercury and Mars swimming into Pisces a bit
later, including Jupiter in about a year and Neptune in 2011-12. We're
in the glorious unwinding of the last two thousand years of mad roamin'
empiredumb. Pisces has been the poster child for all of this, and now
that we are at the dregs, every Pisces season elicits the depths of the
dregs.
This can feel oh so depressing. I'd like you to see that it really is
the feeling of the oppressing. The masters love shaming the slaves;
there has been great internalized conditioning for millennia. As we
grind in the Saturn in Virgo opposition to Uranus in Pisces, we get to
unshame, unslave and unmaster. When it all feels so very heavy,
Promised Landings proliferate. Oh come all ye higher vibrators.........
and such. But it's just more master bait slavishly followed for the
diaper of Change. Thus shit happens, more often, and things seem more
shitty. Don't buy it. Dump it.
There is a wonderful doco by Errol Morris entitled: Stairway to Heaven.
His work is always mesmerizing. Or, maybe it's de-mesmerizing. Have a
look see if you enjoy film. In it, he reveals a number of
ultraquirkers, one being a dude who stole his mama's head for cryo
storage (I reckon colder heads prevail, or as Errol named it, I
Dismember Mama).
The jewel for me was his illumination of Temple Grandin, who is an
advocate for Austistics, and also is a world class designer of
slaughterhouses. {check her out on YouTube} She's an austickler for
humane killing of meat animals, because of her amazing empathy for
critters. It's very touching to observe her. Because of the immense
sensitivity of Austistics, they don't much care for the human caress.
In the film, she shows Morris a remarkable leather and metal apparatus
which squeezes her, giving her deep comfort. It's one of the most
interesting things I've ever seen in movies.
She has a new book out and about: Animals Make Us Human. People wonder
how she can feel so deeply about fauna, and yet arrange for them to be
peaceably killed. Grandin says: "Some people think death is the most
terrible thing that can happen to an animal, ...... the most important
thing for an animal is the quality of its life."
Out of the mouth of Asperger babes....... and no offense. I think
she's terrif! I've had the pleasure to have had several Asperger
Austistic folks as clients. One was in South Africa. How she came to
see me, we never determined. Everything about her was absolutely
non-gendered; she had no affect. She was clear as a belle, and I loved
her dear clarity very much. We also didn't know how she knew to come
for a karmic clearing session, but she did; and that was that. That's
what I so like about these folks. They are.
I feel more quirky, odd and useless as the years go by. Thanks to
Temple and my SA client, I know it's all okay, even with the inevitable
stairway to heaven, or the hellevator, or whateverness. If I had
druthers, I wouldn't participate in the meat thing, or the slaughter of
veggies. It all seems so dumb: in one hole and out the other, multiple
times per day, with all the death dismemberment and ingestion of the
buddies. Life sucks... life. Death happens endlessly everyday in every
way.
It do seem absurd to worry about one's own demise. I enjoy myself, but
I'm not a big worshiper of Life or the After Life. Make mine pre Life.
Being, without the old In and Out, that's me. The unrest, they can have
it.
When it comes to money, I prefer the philosophy of PlayDough over
Airheadstwaddle. Thinking about it all, hurts, and hurts the bottom
line ultimately. Playing with the dough, though daunting in recent
years, is the way to go. Playing with phony baloney money, turns out to
not be fun. We've been sold No Money for years, and now we've
discovered it is so.
No dough has lead to bread lines. The great postage stamp nation of
DoBuy is apparently sinking like sand in the OurGlass. Folks that got
over leveraged there, being a race to their credit, are now facing
severe debtor's prison such that there are thousands of abandoned cars
at the airport. Ain't it amazing what is being revealed these days.
I'm a fan of Dickens' Little Dorrit. The BBC just aired a new
production, which will soon come to USA tellies. The debtor's prison
really hasn't left us. The walls are just transparent. Worry of the
credit score, scores one's self credit. Slaving at the Job to keep so
called health insurance, seems cruel. 401k's are not enough apparently,
and no doubt it's our fault. 402k's anyone? Maybe double your nothin'
with 802k's. Or is it 0k's, zero down and down and down. It was after
all the Arabs that invented the Zero, leading to discoveries in oily
economics.
The Mandarin Oriental Hotel, an extremely high end property like the
Taj Mahal Hotel in Mumbai, was ablaze in glory for Lunar New Year's
celebration in Beijing. Turns out the television station's illegal
fireworks set the pleasure pile alight. It burned from the top down.
Just like everywhere...... Collapse is happening. (note: please check
out my chunneling booklet, the Book of Metatronomy, on said subject at
the end of this missive.)
Gold is ready to hit a thousand dollars an ounce. Oil is toying with
the low thirties per barrel. Things are Up Ending. Down is the
apparency. I see that we have the opportunity of getting done with Up,
getting done with the hierarchical climb on whatever stairways to
whatever heavens here there and everywhere.
How's about if we just be and play with the dough and all, instead of
having it mean absurdly mean treks up the ladder to Knowhere? We are
hitting the bottom hard cuz we hit the top harder. Ascension has
MadeOff with one's worth for oh so very long......
There's no need to chop off the heads of state. They're on a
roll....... in every aspect of life and beyond. Let them eat caked
karma. Spit out your own. It'll leave you with no bad taste in your
mouth, ready to savor your own delight as you play with what is as it
is, instead of going for the Goaled Ring.
Speaking of rings.... thanks to Nexus Magazine (all of its content for
all of its years is now available on line; check 'em out), I see that
the seeming concern for Kosovo some years back was distraction on the
way to establishing an oil pipeline through said country in order to
get Caspian oil to Europe. Along the same lines, it looks like mega
shipments of Afghani heroin by the dark government forces, go through
Kosovo, run by the Albanian mafia. Albania is also involved in the oil
pipeline. Revelation of all greed at its roots is the opportunity of
our time so that we can realize the pain involved and make new choices
beyond stuffering.
A report came out that the birdies of North America are now inhabiting
turf hundreds of miles farther north than ever before. That's quite the
displacement. Don't you feel displaced, too? It's hard to find home
anymore.
A Letters to the Editor writer in a recent NY Times Book Review wrote
of Martin Luther King's: I Have a Dream Speech. He said that he'd heard
years ago, that during a pause in King's speaking, Mahalia Jackson
called out to him "Martin, tell us about your dream". He then left his
prepared text, and the rest is major history. I love Mahalia more than
I can say.
Also recently in the NY Times (they just got a mega loan from mega
billionairos Carlos Slim Helu), there was an article about Nudge. I
love this. Behavioral Economist Richard Thaler apparently coined the
term. In the article, he refers to Amsterdam's airport etching images
of flies in their urinals near the drain. Errant peeing was reduced by
eighty per cent. Ain't that a pisser? Aren't men Pavlovian? Ladies:
how's about installing a cockcam on the bottom side of the bottom
business seat of the toilet so that the gents can be UrineTubed in
their massive glory, in order to prevent sprayage. And then when they
put the top lid down, they get an instant replay along with
accompanying music of Hail to the Chief?
Nudge happens. If we choose. The software of Creation has you suffer in
order to jump through hopes. It don't work; hasn't/won't. But everyone
Depends on it, like a shitty adult diaper. Don't it stank?!?
I say go with Nudge. Playing with dough, or dumps, or doughnots....
leads to Nudge. It is that simple and it is apparent that convoluted
thinkin' stinkin' ain't workin'. So if you're in the fudge, give a
Nudge. Be. Play. Choose.
Here's lookin' at ya,
Mark
On 2/9/2009, I chunneled a booklet entitled The Book of Metatronomy. It
illuminates what I'm seeing as we go down shift creek. The esoteric
revelation of 11:11 is about dimensional collapse. If you'd like to
receive an email of it, please donate $11.11 or more through PayPal,
and I'll gladly send you a copy. It's fun raisin' for raisin funds.

Scrutiny On the Bounty
February 2, 2009
Can you feel the mooovement? Tis the Year of the OX, the Year of Hugs
and Kissies!!! Let us drop the shit of the bull, especially the one in
the ChinaShop, the mart of the Wall. Let us embrace each other
choicefully, without artifact, without stuffage. Disown and be,
together.
Have not have, lest ye be halved. Allow the O and the X. Let love
happen practically. Dissolve the ancient projections: the Ideal, the
Divine calmity, the old In and Out. Give up loving thy neighbor as thy
self. That's unconscious projection of the deeply ignorant sort, all
elevated in the divine comedy. Be thy self and let love be. Let it be
not thee. Let be and see.
Love is a many squandered thing; usually it's splendor unrendered. The
Web is all atwitter about astrologic alignments this coming
Valentine's, the day after Friday the thirteenth. Oh boy, oh girl! Will
you be unlucky and then get lucky? The sainted Veil Entwines...... the
sacred bondage ...... the hope to rope..... It goes on and on,
loopfully. Do you want to buy it, again? Or bye bye it in the sweet by
and by?
If love, of any sort, high and low, would've worked to get rid of
suffering, it would've worked by now. Likewise all the notions of
getting peace to land from on high.
Being is peace. Love is not. Being is not hopelessly hopeful, if you
realize it. Love happens in the Dream. Let it. Allow its play. Dissolve
your identification in it.
Being is your being. It's not Being. It's not Our Being. It's not from
the Great Being. It's not Beingness. Be and see. Be and play together.
Be.
If you identify as Love, you'll endlessly do It, far afield of your own
being. You'll be fucked, upping the yinyang. Those who worship Love are
the least loving because they're lost in the projections, never simply
being with others. Love hurts ignorantly, especially the Divine sort,
by the blind spot of projection. For instance: Everybody thinks it's a
wonderful miracle the crashed plane on the Hudson had no deaths, when
the actual miracle is that planes fly and fly all the time without
crashing. God is praised while everyone ignores that while inside their
belief systems; God crashed the plane, oooo that bad thing, but they
don't see it, only the God/Good... and that's what keeps begatting the
bad. Shit happens. Shift happens. So what? So why? So be.
God and Love are not bad or wrong, and they sure as heaven and hell
aren't good and right, unless you think so. Ain't that thinking for ya?
I want you to see the software of Creation. It creates these effects
seamlessly. We are living through an extraordinary window on the
software itself. The illumination of this has been the purpose of my
writing to you for the last nine years.
You are not a jerk. I'm not a jerk. We've been jerked, around and
around. That's not bad or wrong. It's evident. You can choose beyond
the software and its endless effects by realizing your own being,
instead of realizing the software and trying to get it to work work
work. Are you, my friends, tired yet?!? If not, Hopey Veils Entwine to
ya.
Being, together, is exquisite, waaaaaay beyond any love or Love I've
ever experienced, and I've been blessed with an infinite amount of the
substance and energy of it All. I dethroned from the software and the
heaps o' Love on 1/1/2000. I've never missed the software and the Love
one iota cuz it was all an empty projection that sought its own
fulfillment.
Praise the YinYang symbol. It's all you need to know to see through the
Game. Moving from one dimension to another is futile and feudal. The
land of the Lord is just as crumby as where you now seemingly stand.
The Biggers are not choosers, though they participate in belittling the
lessers in evil. If you are Lorded or Lorded over, it still sucks. It
sucks you into the software, empowering It whilst you think you are
empowered or disempowered or winning the Dual by All Won.
In these remarkably existentially grindful times, ghost dances arise.
The Aquarian shift of love and peace is about as deep as the intimacy
of Facebook. It's just High school, pretense, and the farthest thing
from intimacy. That's Aquarian in all it's shadowed glory: Image that
flickr's, notions of motion, mean meaning, iDeiation, and the worship
of projection.
Aquarius actually represents being, the freedom of being, the
non-heirarchal nature of being, the interchange of being. It is opposed
to Leo, the heart of love, the lord of love. Aquarius offers the
realization of being, rather than the looping itch scratching of
loveitis. Leo does represent the shine of being that has been
misconstrued as love. The Game always all ways co-opts being. Don't let
it ruler you, bound and determined. Express the grief and grievance,
realizing it is not you. Be and shine, for all to see and be.
The heart is broken, not holy. The heart beats. The heart bleeds and
clots. It is not you or Us. It just plays in the Dream. Be, beyond
identification in the Dream and you will be beyond the heartmending
break dance.
Love is always having to feel sorry, sorry that Love doesn't work for
the only Game in town. Being is intimate. It can share and choose
without strings attached. Detached loving of the divine fantasy is its
own creation, the pill for its own ill. Give it up and live and love
freely really. You won't miss missing in the messianic. You will be,
free.
We're getting scrutiny on the bounty, aren't we? Captain Blight is
being ever so rough. The daze of hogging has been grounded to see its
shadow in our winter of discount tent. The economy is as slow as mo'
losses. The fear within greed has come full circle. We've gotten what
we got. We've been had.
In 1998, I happened to meet a senior editor of Forbes magazine over
breakfast in Santa Fe. She was an African-American woman, a real
pioneer if you understand that world. In my usual wacky way, I was
inspired to write to her at the end of that summer. She didn't reply,
but perhaps it's applicable to our time....
"I sense that the U.S. stock market is now ready to correct hard and
fast. It will stabilize, but theres a considerable shake out that
reverberates for many years. This is a re-visioning of the marketplace,
the stock market and change itself. Capitalism, the protection of
capital and the encouragement of rampant growth, are being transformed
into Synergism, the development of the dynamic interdependence of
systems.
The flow of capital will usurp ownership of capital, as the measure of
success. The polarity of have and have not is to be bridged so that
life is no longer bludgeoned by greedonism, personally and planetarily.
Nations and governments will increasingly become coalition-based rather
than competition-based. Cultural differences will become resources for
interchange rather than reasons for attack. Gross consumption by first
world people will shift into their valuing of time freedom. Ever
reaching for gain will transform into the valuing of connection. The
grand machinery of cranking out stuff and consuming it is about to
upheave. This will be quite messy. Business that understands the
humanity of their co-workers and that link segments of humanity
co-creatively in the marketplace will ultimately thrive. Its not about
technology; its about connection.
Holding is too costly to everybody. Such imbalance revs consumption
which inevitably then collapses. The flowing of resources to the second
and third world countries by open sharing, continual pump priming,
opens the way to new systems of real prosperity. Self-informing
inherent in connection, rather than dividing and conquering by hidden
agendas of profit over people and planet, allows peace. Gain and loss
will wane as the measure of wealth. Mutual advantage is ascendant. Many
decades of unfoldment will reveal this. Short term experience will be a
roller coaster ride."
Let us seek mutual advantage, rather than competitive advantage, peace
rather than who holds the pieces. Let us surf rather than turf, rather
than serf.
Rome was founded upon the rape of the Sabines. As the Piscean Age
unwinds, we see all the effects of our roamin' empires. Don't you feel
raped these days in multiple ways? Haven't we raped mightily to have
what we have? Haven't we all been raped therein? The Gods and the Lords
are no different. They think they escaped the rapeage even while they
foist the same. We are all complicit. There are no innocents at the
bottom of it all. Nobody is finally doing It. It's the software
stooped! Clear your identification in the software that runs the show
and freely be. You may not be rich, but you won't be poor. You may have
little, but little will have you.
It is time to Let Go.
Why save the car industry? It's moribund. It has paved paradise. Let it
die. Where have we been going so fast for what? We've been driving
ourselves crazily. Why bail out banks, airlines, automakers, wretch
cetera?
Moreabundance is moribund, it's a dearth march. More is based on
feeling that we have less. Now we got There. How do you like it? Are
you scared to debt?
We have all been working for No Money and now we've got it. Get it?
Credit is actually debt. They lie and we stoopedly believe it. That's
believing for ya: pure ignorance. Credit is buying something with No
Money. That's why we have No Money. I say let it come crashing down,
cuz it already has. Why revive dead horseshit? Why beat around the
Bush? Why hope for another Obamanation?
It's time to unwind. Put up your feats and stop to smell the roses.
You'll have to sniff a fair share of neuroses along the way. I have
smelled my own, and then some! It hurts, but does not hurt finally. Tis
the system that stinks, but we're left to feel that we are the
stinkers. Nah!
Let us get the stink off of us, by choice, not by control. Control will
set the world deeper into out of control. Allowing and being with what
is as it is, unwinds the ignorance, by choice. Ignorance is suffering.
Believing in knowledge and control is real suffering. As we trend into
Aquarian archetypes, higher knowledge offers the inane insane belief
that such knowledge will give us the power and the glory to control
things beyond suffering. We have become God, and now we can see the God
offal, the shit of power, the dump from the rump of the looping
projections. Wipe and flush or forever hang on to your shit while
thinking it don't stink. Thems the stinkers....
More will be revealed as time marshes on while everyone feels swamped.
Lotus be free. We've mucked about on such muck for a very long time,
but thereupon purdy flowerings can simply be. I mean simply! All the
crazed notions of doing this to do that just fixates what is wronged.
It is time to unright the ship and stop climbing the wrongs of the
ladder.
Float and flow. It is too early to say how or when. We are at the Why
in the road. Ask yourself why you are doing what you are doing what you
are doing. And then let it come undone. Being leadeth us out of the
swamp. Doing goeth before the falling into the get rich quicksand.
Revalue your life around being, rather than doing. Come undone. The
whey has been made ready for a butter day when your spread will no
longer be falsely imperial. Throw thy wonder bread upon the waters. See
it melt for it never did nourish you. Unstarve. You are not a consumer.
Consumers are now being consumed in the fiery pit of greed. The geeks
have inherited the Earth.
