Tears of Love
I made a little something with an image I took this week. I wish I took more images that look good with text. Hmm, maybe that could be a new project series.
Accidents
Thoughts as of late
Sometimes
Sometimes, I just wanna tell you everything; how i feel about you, how much you mean to me, how much I care about you and how much I love you.
Demons
We have demons… inner demons, things we have to learn to master and defeat over our life here on earth as I’m sure you must’ve learned in philosophy? Anyway, I can’t remember how you started off the post but you said this entity took on the form of a gargoyle. Gargoyle’s in Medieval times are said to be watchful keepers of the home despite them being scary looking (in turn in our dreams they symbolize us keeping a “watchful” distance or symbolize us actually keeping a secret from someone or ourselves). In metaphysics stones hold vibrations or truths about the Universe in their structure (religious texts often describe a prophet inscribing secretes into stone – this is just a metaphor for what stones actually do). If you recall the pose of a typical gargoyle; many of these poses of gargoyles have them actually keeping their arms crossed and to themselves symbolizing holding on to something – a vibration or truth. Our thoughts are therefore, LIGHT, and light is an illusion, able to be manipulated by the simplest of our thoughts. That’s why I said that this entity is light, we are attracted towards light (wanting to be close to it) because it is natural for us to go to the light; but light itself is manipulative (it manipulated you!). The entity is simply teaching you that you have all the answers you need inside of yourself; we are bottles of Wisdom (darkness) and the light in this world is to distract us from our all knowing power. When it changed into a different form it realized that you recognized who it was and tried to trick you by changing it’s appearance (manipulation of light). I hope this makes sense… but this is just what I noticed when you posted that dream.
An interpretation I was having with my friend Teresea via facebook.
Energies that move the body
The energies that move the body are the energies that move the imagination. These energies, then, are the source of mythological imagery; in a mythological organization of symbols, the conflicts between the different organic impulses within the body are resolved and harmonized. You might say a mythology is a formula for the harmonization of the energies of life.

Missing Someone
The Mysterious
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and all science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead: his eyes are closed ~ Albert Einstein
The Way of Light
“For the awakened Gnostic, Christ is a being of light and the Christ narrative is an allegory of a universal internal spiritual experience, the Way of Light.[…] This is the ancient spiritual journey of the Wayshower, Jesus demonstrated. We follow (and will complete) this light path both individually and as a species…” (Secret of Sion, William Henry)
hmm I wonder where I’ve heard ‘the Way of Light’ before… oh wait that’s Moravian’s motto: Via Lucis.
Hermeticism in Judiasm
In Judiasm, the Hermetic influences emerged in the Kabbalah. the short and fundamental Kabbalistic text Sepher Yezirah (the “Book of Creation,” ca. third century A.D.) expounds a cosmology, notable the sevenfold one of the planets, days of the week, openings in the head and body, etc, and the twelve-fold one of the zodiac, directions of space, monts, organs of the body, etc. It describes a cosmos not torn between good and evil, but held in polarity by positive and negative energies. The method of salvation is through becoming aware of oneself as a microcosm, seating the “King on his Throne” (the divine presence) in the center of life. Again we have a doctrine that is affirmative of nature and the body, and dedicated to the realization of the macrocosm in the microcosm. the esoteric idea of Israel is also a Hermetic one: it is that the Jews are called upon to bear witness to the divine order on earth. Just as in Hermetism the earth, including the humb body, is replete with celestial influences, so the Jewish way of life is designed to ensure that every action carries a spiritual significance.

Weather War
“The key to geophysical warfare is the identification of environmental instabilities to which the addition of a small amount of energy would release vastly greater amounts of energy.” – Professor Gordon J.F. MacDonald.
