The true human being is the meaning of the universe. He is a dancing star. He is the exploding singularity with infinite possibilities. - david zindell

The Indian snake creature known as the naga was
believed to reside in groups apart from normal
humans, and many legends tell of their secret
citites hidden deep in the jungle, underground,
or underwater. In many tales, the naga is often
of royal lineage, or sometimes even divinity.
Nagas are often associated with water, and it
is said that they can control the weather.
As a naga, you possess strong leadership abilities,
you are highly intelligent, and you can also be
a bit intimidating. You also enjoy the finer
things in life and like to be pampered, and
you're not too keen on mixing and mingling with
the unwashed masses.
You are the Star card. The Star is the light of hope. Shining in the night, sending light into darkness, the stars provide direction to sailors and are a field on which to dream. Humanity used to look up at the sky and desire to be there, to find out what it all meant, and now we have been a distance into space and have elementary ideas of the makeup of all the different stars. This kind of achievement adds further fuel to our hopes. The eternal, slow-moving stars that will be long shining past the end of our own existence provide hope of immortality, and the vast space they suggest and the very mystery they hold provide us with excitement and knowledge yet to be discovered.

You are the Fool card. The Fool fearlessly begins the journey into the unknown. To do this, he does not regard the world he knows as firm and fixed. He has a seemingly reckless disregard for obstacles. In the Ryder-Waite deck, he is seen stepping off a cliff with his gaze on the sky, and a rainbow is there to catch him. In order to explore and expand, one must disregard convention and conformity. Those in the throes of convention look at the unconventional, non-conformist personality and think What a fool. They lack the point of view to understand The Fool's actions. But The Fool has roots in tradition as one who is closest to the spirit world. In many tribal cultures, those born with strange and unusual character traits were held in awe. Shamans were people who could see visions and go on journeys that we now label hallucinations and schizophrenia. Those with physical differences had experience and knowledge that the average person could not understand. The Fool is God. The number of the card is zero, which when drawn is a perfect circle. This circle represents both emptiness and infinity. The Fool is not shackled by mountains and valleys or by his physical body. He does not accept the appearance of cliff and air as being distinct or real. Image from: Mary DeLave http://www.marydelave.com/
You are talkative, clever, and knowledgeable - and it shows.
You probably never leave home without your cell phone!
You're witty, expressive, and aware of everything going on around you.
You love learning, playing, and taking in all of what life has to offer.
Be careful not to talk your friends' ears off, and temper your need to know everything.
You're a master at intimate conversation and verbal enticement.
You seduce with words, by getting people to open up to you.
By establishing this deep connection quickly, people feel under your power.
And then you've got them exactly where you want them!
IN THE PURSUIT OF FUN IT IS ADVISABLE TO KEEP starseed CLOSE TO KNOWN SOURCES OF ZANY HILARITY AND ENCOURAGE WACKYNESS.
You are an air witch. You're very intelligent and draw your power from the air. Thin and small in appearance, you're full of insight and vitality. You probably wish to travel the world.. and to fly. Your powers of visualization and invisibility make you a great observer, thinker and sometimes artist. Your spirit moves as the wind, giving life to all.

Devil came by this morning,
Said he had
Something to show me
I was looking like I've never seen a face before
Here we go now, let's slide into the open door
Pictures and things that I've done before
Circling around me,
Out here on the floor

Regretting nothing
Think about that

My worst habit is I get so tired of winter
I become a torture to those I'm with.
If you're not here, nothing grows.
I lack clarity. My words
tangle and knot up.
How to cure bad water? Send it back to the river.
How to cure bad habits? Send me back to you.
When the water gets caught up in habitual whirlpools,
dig a way out through the bottom
to the ocean. There is a secret medicine
given only to those who hurt so hard
they can't hope.
The hopers would feel slighted if they knew.
Look as long as you can at the friend you love,
no matter whether that friend is moving away from you
or coming back to you.

Don't let your throat tighten
with fear. Take sips of breath
all day and night, before death
closes your mouth.

A riddle::: How do you capture a beautiful bird without killing it's spirit?
By becoming the sky
from:War in Heaven by David Zindell
the candle
the power
that I burn with
draws you to me
like a moth
in pheremonal lust
in the infared
will you circle endlessly
or burning in my flame
a charred corpse
in hot wax
-dmitri- 2-5-05 ~10:30
"to you"
to you-
who has known:
the bitter loss
of abandonment,
the destructive
misery
of longing,
and that empty
place
where love once lay
I ask
how long:
will you pine
in darkness
afraid and alone,
fearing to love again
while I
sit here
in verdant fields
staring at the sky
waiting
to hear your voice say,
"I am whole again, and here with you."
dmitri - 1/26/05 ~8 PM
the power of attraction
what if you held,
the power of attraction,
over me?
would I be your moon,
revolving and orbiting you?
your fair children, one day;
come to wander, on my:
surface?
Nay, forsooth:
The earth and her
Moon, were tortured by:
distance; bittersweet embraces.
from afar.
Instead perhaps,
Be my flower, as such
I would buzz merrily by,
But circling, drawn to your:
vivd grandeur,
tempting nectar;
alight upon your petals,
drawn to your core,
to pollinate your soul!
-Dmitri- 1/20/05
~the subtle dance~
my dance
is a subtle dance
twisting and turning
shifted by the winds
caught in a moment
by desire
the lover of all things
spins with abandon
when at last
the music ends
my soul still
dances on
the light in my eyes
calls out to you
knowing that
we should dance
-Dmitri- on 1/15/05 5:57PM
'Whether Your Destiny is Glory or Disgrace'
Whether your destiny is glory or disgrace,
Purify yourself of hatred and love of self.
Polish your mirror; and that sublime Beauty
From the regions of mystery
Will flame out in your heart
As it did for the saints and prophets.
Then, with your heart on fire with that Splendor,
The secret of the Beloved will no longer be hidden.
Jami, translation by Andrew Harvey and Eryk Hanut - 'Perfume of the Desert'
THE NEW RULE
It's the old rule that drunks have to argue
and get into fights.
The lover is just as bad. He falls into a hole.
But down in that hole he finds something shining,
worth more than any amount of money or power.
Last night the moon came dropping its clothes in the street.
I took it as a sign to start singing,
falling up into the bowl of sky.
The bowl breaks. Everywhere is falling everywhere.
Nothing else to do.
Here's the new rule: break the wineglass,
and fall towards the glassblower's breath.
~
This that is tormented and very tired,
tortured with restraints like a madman,
this heart.
Still you keep breaking the shell
to get the taste of its kernel!
-Rumi-
SUBLIME GENEROSITY
I was dead, then alive.
Weeping, then laughing.
The power of love came into me,
and I became fierce like a lion,
then tender like the evening star.
He said, "You're not mad enough.
You don't belong in this house."
I went wild and had to be tied up.
He said, "Still not wild enough
to stay with us!"
I broke through another layer
into joyfullness.
He said, "It is not enough."
I died.
He said, "You're a clever little man,
full of fantasy and doubting."
I plucked out my feathers and became a fool.
He said, "Now you're the candle
for this assembly."
But I'm no candle. Look!
I'm scattered smoke.
He said, "You are the sheikh, the guide."
But I'm not a teacher. I have no power.
He said, "You already have wings.
I cannot give you wings."
But I wanted his wings.
I felt like some flightless chicken.
Then new events said to me,
"Don't move. A sublime generosity is
coming toward you."
And old love said, "Stay with me."
I said, "I will."
You are the fountain of the sun's light.
I am a willow shadow on the ground.
You make my raggedness silky.
The soul at dawn is like darkened water
that slowly begins to say Thank you, thank you.
Then at sunset, again, Venus gradually
changes into the moon and then the whole nightsky.
This comes of smiling back
at your smile.
The chess master says nothing.
other than moving the silent chess piece.
That I am part of the ploys
of this game makes me
amazingly happy.
-Rumi-
A delicate girl
The terrible grief of being human! Let
us drink it all, but with a difference.
we sit with Junnaiyd and Bestami. The
moon rising here cannot be covered with
cloud. There are no deaths for lovers.
Who is the self? A delicate girl that
flows out when we draw the sword of
selfless action. The earth eats men
and women, and yet we are sent to eat
the world, this place that tries to fool
us with tomorrow. Wait until tomorrow,
which we outwit by enjoying only this
now. We gather at night to celebrate
being human. Sometimes we call out low
to the tamborine. Fish drink the sea,
but the sea does not get smaller! We
eat the clouds and evening light. We
are slaves tasting the royal wine.
-Rumi-
This is how a human being can change
There's a worm addicted to eating grape leaves.
Suddenly, he wakes up, call it grace, whatever, something wakes him, and he's no longer a worm.
He's the entire vineyard, and the orchard too, the fruit, the trunks, a growing wisdom and joy, that doesn't need to devour.
-Rumi-
Come,
let's scatter roses and pour wine in the glass;
we'll shatter heaven's roof and lay a new foundation.
If sorrow raises armies to shed the blood of lovers,
I'll join with the wine bearer so we can overthrow them.
With a sweet string at hand, play a sweet song, my friend,
so we can clap and sing a song and lose our heads in dancing.
Hafiz (Ghani-Qazvini, no 374) 'from the Shambhala Guide to Sufism' Carl.W Ernst, Ph.D.
"Now for that happy period between the lie and the time it's found out." -Homer Simpson
Marriage Bed - Edwina Sandys - Mixed Media 74" x 54" x 48" Anyone who wants to sleep only on the roses....is not living with reality in mind.
Inside this new love, die.
Your way begins on the other side.
Become the sky.
Take an axe to the prison wall.
Escape.
Walk out like someone suddenly born into color.
Do it now.
You're covered with a thick cloud.
Slide out the side. Die,
and be quiet. Quiteness is the surest sign
that you've died.
Your old life was a frantic running
from silence.
The speechless full moon
comes out now.

if you believe in yesterday
you must be sad
if you believe in tomorrow

only in the now

I am darkness and light, pain and pleasure, happiness and suffering, eternal bliss and punishment, in all things are all things, and I am not myself but something greater, while being insignificant as a grain of sand on a beach. I am redemption, never sought, denial - always denied, powerful weakness, calling out, while hiding, waiting but never stopping, the slowest speed. but one thing I hold dear, and let flourish, and this is love. remember in your life always to stop for love, because love is eternal, love is power, love is pain, and love is all things in all things. never forget to take the time to love, for love is light, everflowing from one source, and the light will set you free.
d.a.d. - an expansion of recent thoughts completed on 1/24/05
You can do a milion nice things for a person in a day, but say one hurtful thing to them, intentional or not, and that is all they will remember the next morning.
The problem with perceptions is that they are our own and we often stubbornly stand by the strength of our knowledge and intellect...never believing we could have misunderstood, and we can never know how these misperceptions can be wrong, until we ask the person who we think has wronged us. Until that day....our misperceptions will fester inside, eating us alive. There is nothing to fear, except fear itself. Fear is the mind killer.
my online art gallery
I love listening to music, photoshoping, playing with my cute kitty!!! DJing, outdoorsy stuff, having real conversations, being a fool, parties, fires, drum circles, meeting smart people, building a network to take over the world, pinky....the same thing we do every day. I believe in sustainable development & redevelopment of industrial spaces and superfund sites as a viable method to revive our struggling economy
My good good friend Erin once told me, that women use sex to get love, while men use love to get sex. I think this is really weird and somewhat true. The opposite may be true for some people, and I think that is even weirder. lol
who wants to know about me!? show yourself!...ok so unless I think you are neat-o with a chill libido, I probably won't add you...thanks to all the excellent people who have found me and added me. You are all amazing, meanwhile, unless you are over 18 I probably won't add you, just so you know, I've made some exceptions, but they are rare. It helps if you send me a MESSAGE. I am a complicated person. Very passionate, always brimming with intensity, my allies destroy or remove that which displeases me. I work in mysterious ways, always on the move, ready for the next battle, the peaceful warrior follows a path that is invisble to those who can not see. I love to write poems, but I am not always inspired to do so. Sometimes the extremes of emotion required are too overwhelming, but I'll blast anyway. I love music and hate TV, I'm sensitive and weird. I'm naive and innocent, while cunning and wicked when times call. I like me this way, ignorant and wise all wrapped up in a complicated fuzzy ball of bliss. When you start to truly know me, I can scare you, but what is fear anyway?? I abandon my fear with each new step, for otherwise I shall be controlled by it and never fully live. A great power lies in deep understanding of fear, for we as the walking dead barely understand how many of our decisions in life are defined by our fears. When you can start to get inside your fear, and know it fully, you will realize it's not worth your mental energy and then you might remember it's not worth it.
I am a fire snake, and a gemini.
The Sixth Sign of the Lunar Cycle
Mine is the wisdom of the ages.
I hold the key to the mysteries of life.
Casting my seeds on fertile ground,
I nurture them with constancy and purpose.
My sights are fixed.
My gaze unchanging.
Unyielding, inexorable and deep,
I advance with steady, unslacked gait,
the solid earth beneath me.
I AM THE SNAKE.

If you don't believe this is true Click here for the science!!!
....then if you want to know why it is true, that this would be intentionally suppressed, you'd probably have to ask me. (not for the weak of heart or mind)
"News coverage of the Madrid discovery has been virtually
nonexistent in this country. The news broke quietly
on Feb. 29, 2000 with a story that ran once on
the UPI wire about the Nature Medicine article," complained MarijuanaNews.com
editor Richard Cowan , who said he was only able
to find the article through a link that appeared briefly
on the Drudge Report Web page. "The New York Times,
The Washington Post, and Los Angeles Times all ignored
the story, even though its newsworthiness is indisputable:
a benign substance occurring in nature destroys deadly
brain tumors," added Cowan.
On
March 29, 2001, the San Antonio Currentprinted a carefully researched, bombshell of
a story by Raymond Cushing titled, "POT SHRINKS TUMORS;
GOVERNMENT KNEW IN '74."
Media coverage since then has been nonexistant, except
for a copy of the story on Alternet
.
It is hard to believe that the knowledge that cannabis
can be used to fight cancer has been suppressed for almost thirty
years , yet it seems likely that it will continue
to be suppressed. Why?
According to Cowan, the answer is because it is a threat to cannabis prohibition
. "If this article and its predecessors from 2000
and 1974 were the only evidence of the suppression of
medical cannabis, then one might perhaps be able to
rationalize it in some herniated way. However, there
really is massive
proof that the suppression of medical cannabis represents
the greatest failure of the institutions of a free society,
medicine, journalism, science, and our fundamental values,"
Cowan notes.
Millions of people have died horrible deaths and in
many cases, familes exhausted their savings on dangerous,
toxic and expensive drugs. Now we are just beginning
to realize that while marijuana has never killed anyone,
marijuana prohibition has killed millions.

The warrior knows that there are occasional pauses in the struggle. There is no point in forcing things; he must have patience and wait for the two sides to clash again. In the silence of battlefield, he listens to his heart beating. He notices that he is tense, that he is afraid. The warrior takes stock of his life; he makes sure that his sword is sharp, his heart satisfied, that faith still burns in his soul. He knows that maintenance is as important as action. There is always something not quite right. And the warrior takes advantage of those moments when time stops to equip himself better.
