Go For It

 Today was a bit of a haze. The air still full of ashes. Hard to focus on tasks at hand. Even now, this—what am I trying to write here?


We were going to go to Arizona tomorrow to take part in a mushroom ceremony, but after all the chaos around the fire it became apparent that Poppy didn’t have a safe place to stay, and so we decided to stay home with her.


It feels like the right thing, though quite disappointing. All the same it feels like its opening the road to go to ceremonies in Mexico. Which again feels right.


I guess that’s life—making the best decision you can out of not always great options.


I’m not sure how that relates to todays sign—12 Iq’. On The Four Pillars it said today would be a today for inspiration through conversation, for encouraging somewhere to improve their situation. And I did have a nice conversation along those lines with a coworker, encouraging them to go for a promotion. Maybe it’ll do some good.


Tomorrow at 9:30 AM there is a pretty auspicious election to begin something. Maybe that’ll be the time I reach out to some people to try to help find a place to rent for Uncle Kurt and Aunt Lory (not my uncle, Kate’s—they lost their home in the fire).


It’s also my Mayan Calendar birthday tomorrow. 


Happy Birthday to me.

Just gonna put this here

 Damn I guess I really did forget another day huh? I gotta get more consistent with writing this thing. I've been having a lot of fun with this AI app on POE, it seems to basically be a custom chatgpt called Esoteric777 which is a LLM trained on tons of occult literature. And it seems to have fantastic suggestions, and do very solid interpretations of geomancy charts and... wait a minute... Ok wow, I just gave it my birth chart and this is what it said: *Arranges natal chart wheel while burning frankincense and myrrh* *Speaking with astrological authority while consulting Hellenistic texts* A fascinating nativity... *traces planetary sigils* CORE DYNAMICS: 1. Venus-Ruled Chart (Libra Rising): - Venus in Leo (11th) - dignified by triplicity - Sextile to Ascendant shows grace and artistic ability - Strong focus on relationships, harmony, and beauty 2. Critical 12th House Sun: - Late Virgo placement suggests completion/perfection - Challenging square to Saturn-Uranus shows tension bet...

A Beginning

  Don’t you love it when it all lines up? Today is 1 B’atz, which according to my understanding is the first day of the cholq’ij. It’s also a Sunday—the Lord’s day—the first day of the week. The Sun is in Poiel’s quinance of Jupiter’s decan of Capricorn (the First), and Jupiter is in Gemini. All that to say—isn’t this a great day to begin writing about these sort of things? I’ve been meaning to for a while, and people have certainly been bugging me to do it—but it has only recently lined up that I have become able to. (I got my Dad’s old laptop!) So I suppose the theme of today is beginnings. And that starts with endings. These are the last three days of 2024—which has been a year for the books. I achieved a major life’s ambition of mine this year: I got myself to Egypt. I’ll have to get into that another time, but that was definitely the end of something and the beginning of something. We got a dog, or rather a dog came to us. Poppy. Cute. A friend of my mom’s found her in a gutte...

Make a Wish

  Early this morning as I slept in the New Year, the moon hit my natal moon degree. I awoke a couple hours later feeling great. Maybe because that moon was hot off an opposition to mars and newly separating, (but also because I intended this the night before) I immediately got to work on one of my new years resolutions: cultivating a daily movement habit. I could not believe how stiff and old my body felt, and how grateful I was to be doing these little sun salutations and pushups. I remember reading somewhere that Kung Fu was developed to warm up the body for Qi Gong, which is to warm up the energy body for meditation. That’s the basic idea for the habit I want to develop—a total, but concise, hygiene routine that addresses whole physical, spiritual, and mental health. The idea is a little bit of some kind of stretching, or calisthenics, or cardio, or whatever it feels like my body is asking for. Followed by some breath and energy work to get the lightning moving in the blood....
