Cancer and Libra make a love match

When Cancer and Libra make a love match, they give to one another important things that each lacks. Both Signs seek a secure, assured relationship and will enjoy their shared appreciation for beauty and luxury — especially when it comes to their domestic environment.

Quotes

Your children are not your children. They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.

Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.

The Guess Who - No Time

Halsey - Gasoline (Audio)

Once you make the blind sighted; don't be angry that they see

SAID A BLADE OF GRASS

Said a blade of grass to an autumn leaf, “You make such a noise falling! You scatter all my winter dreams.”

Said the leaf indignant, “Low-born and low-dwelling! Songless, peevish thing! You live not in the upper air and you cannot tell the sound of singing.”

Then the autumn leaf lay down upon the earth and slept. And when spring came she waked again — and she was a blade of grass.

And when it was autumn and her winter sleep was upon her, and above her through all the air the leaves were falling, she muttered to herself, “O these autumn leaves! They make such noise! They scatter all my winter dreams.”

To Katy

Your mom’s kidney is failing. I think if she must go to dialysis she will not have the strength to live. She is locked her soul in the closet of gilt and despair. This is killing her as I write and you read. As I looked into her eyes today; I felt the pain. I told her I like to go to grace Cathedral to sing on Fridays. I fill the room with attempt to be a singer. She shared with me singing and venues and performances.

Know she loves you and your son. Know this message is from the white light of positive energy and comes from my soul and sent from the volition of an Archangel that saved my life.

Time and Travel

A professor of neuroscience at UCLA, lays out the latest theories of time – including the benefits and limits of be-here-now mindfulness.

"The human brain, writes Buonomano, is a time machine that allows us to mentally travel backward and forward, to plan for the future and agonizingly regret that past like no other animal."

---------------------

Our brains are time machines like clocks are time machines: constantly tracking the passage of time, whether it’s circadian rhythms that tell us when to go to sleep, or microsecond calculations that allow us to the hear the difference between “They gave her cat-food” and “They gave her cat food.”

--------------------

[ Survival as Attraction ]

The brain is an organ that’s future-oriented. As far as survival goes, the evolutionary value of the brain is to act in the present to ensure survival in the future, whether survival is figuring out a good place to get food, etc.

So whether it’s the brain of mammals or other humans, the brain is always attempting to predict the future. If you’re a herbivore or you’re looking for a mate, your brain is telling you to go one way or the other because it’s making its best estimates as to what will optimize its chances of achieving that goal.

---------------------

[ Abstraction / Prediction ]

But what seems to be distinctly human is certainly the extent that we can engage in what we call mental time travel — this idea that we can consciously project ourselves back into the past and relive experiences. And it’s the ability to see the long-term future that I think is distinctly human.

[ Planning / Technology ]

It’s impossible to overestimate how important that is, how much of your life is future-oriented, from going to school — from getting a job to saving for retirement to exercising and going to the doctor. These are all things that would be very difficult for other animals to engage in because they’re for the short- and long-term future. And one of the most transformative inventions humans have ever engaged in was agriculture. The notion of planting a seed and coming back a year later is something we take for granted now, but it’s hard to think of anything more important than that ability.

--------------------

[ Balance vs Stress ]

I don’t think that thinking about the future or living in the present are inherently good or bad, right or wrong. Obviously, most complex issues in life require finding the right balance. The current push a bit more toward living in the present and mindfulness is pushing back a bit against the fact that sometimes we do spend too much time worrying about the future.

[ Cultural Contrasts ]

I wrote about this interesting example of the Pirahã Indians, natives of the Amazon forest studied by Daniel Everett. They seem to have this very present-based existence. He argues that they don’t think about the long-term future much. And my point there was that way of thinking attenuates much of the stresses we have in the Western world of anxiety produced by making sure we’re economically stable, we’re healthy, and our family is well taken care of, etc.

But the problem is that everything we’ve achieved — the reason that over the past millennia humans have gone from having a life expectancy of 30, 40 years to 70 or 80 years — is precisely because we worried about those things. A present-based existence is good to one extent, but a healthy long life requires a significant amount of worrying about the future. So I think balance is what is sought after.

------------------------

[ Mapping / Awareness ]

Why are humans unique in our ability to grasp the concept of time for the short- and long-term? The argument is maybe humans are unique in this ability because they co-opted the circuits within the brain that allow us to understand space and applied those circuits in one way or another towards time. So obviously humans and other animals have these mental maps, spatial maps that allow you to, even with your eyes closed, navigate your room at night or find the bathroom. So you have this map in which space is mapped out within your mind.

[ Spacetime Language ]

And maybe the same idea applies to time, in which we can conceive of the past and the future by sort of traveling along these temporal maps within our brain. People have argued that’s one of the reasons that the language of time often uses spatial metaphors. “In hindsight that was a very bad idea. I’m looking forward to meeting you next week. I see the deadline approaching.”

------------------------

[ Abstraction vs Subjectivity ]

In the context of physics and philosophy, to the extent that there is a favored or default view, it is that of the “block universe,” in which the past, present, and future are all equally real. So “now” is an arbitrary point in time as much as “here” is an arbitrary point in space. There’s absolutely no preferred moment in time. It’s just all equally real and equally valid. So this means that the past and the future are equally real as the present.

So once you’re in the block universe, we end up with this paradox, which is, it doesn’t seem that time would actually flow. Because if the past, present, and future all exist, this clear impression that we have of transience — of the transformation of the present evaporating into the past and creating the future as this active process — would not be real. The way that philosophers often put it is that time doesn’t flow. Time simply is. This is where the collision that you referred to comes in because, from a neuroscience and psychology perspective, certainly one of the most salient experiences we have is precisely of the flow of time of the past disappearing into the void and the future being wide open.

[ Perception vs Physics ]

So does time flow or not? I certainly don’t know the answer, to be clear. But I do think that in order to understand the nature of the universe we need to understand the nature of time. And to understand the nature of consciousness, we need to understand if our perception of the flow of time is a real property of the universe or something that’s sort of a creation or side effect of consciousness.

So I think this is a fascinating and rare intersection of physics and neuroscience. I think time is this very deep problem, so deep, in fact, that it sort of forces us to work together to figure out if we want to accept our subjective experience of the flow of time as empirical fact about the universe, or not.

---------------------------

[ Behavior / Choice / Myopia ]

To the extent that we understand why we behave in certain ways, why we make decisions in certain ways, why we perceive time in certain ways, I think those are positive steps toward understanding ourselves and making better decisions in our life. I discuss just a tiny bit, this issue of temporal myopia in that sometimes we don’t think enough about the future.

Things like climate change seem to be perversely set up so that they’re very hard to address both at the societal level and at the political level. It’s hard for us to be as engaged in things that are cross-generational problems. Humans are uniquely able to think about the long-term future, right? But don’t mistake that with the fact that we’re particularly good at it. Compared to most animals, yeah, we’re great. But that doesn’t mean we don’t have a long way to go.

The local news station was interviewing an 80-year-old lady because she had just gotten married for the fourth time. The interviewer asked her questions about her life, about what it felt like to be marrying again at 80, and then about her new husband's occupation.

"He's a funeral director," she answered.

"Interesting," the newsman thought.

He then asked her if she wouldn't mind telling him a little about her first three husbands and what they did for a living. She paused for a few moments, needing time to reflect on all those years. After a short time, a smile came to her face and she answered proudly, explaining that she had first married a banker when she was in her 20's, then a circus ringmaster when in her 40's, and a preacher when in her 60's, and now - in her 80's - a funeral director.

The interviewer looked at her, quite astonished, and asked why she had married four men with such diverse careers.

(Wait for it)

She smiled and explained, "I married one for the money, two for the show, three to get ready, and four to go."

Oh, just hush-up and send this one on to somebody who needs a laugh!!!!!!

https://psychicelements.com/blog/clairsentience/

1. Instincts/Insights/Gut Feelings

Sudden inspirations, insights or instincts which appear out of the blue are usually clairsentience in action. These can be strong sudden emotional and physical responses where a person feels joy, dread or excitement, which then cause reactions. These sudden gut feelings may cause someone to turn left instead of right to avoid an accident. A sudden unexpected insight may cause you to avoid someone without ever knowing why.

Often, these feelings allow you to sense situations very quickly. Sometimes they serve as an inspiration to go on, or show you the way to avoid a roadblock.This sudden onslaught of feelings will not go away until you understand where it’s coming from or act on it.

2. Sympathy and Empathy

Empathy is an intuitive psychic gift. It is the capability of picking up someone else’s feelings. A true empath who has the gift of clairsentience can actually know exactly what someone else is experiencing. Clairsentience that manifests as sympathy or heightened empathy can cause the psychic some emotional issues. For example, if you are experiencing overwhelming negative feelings which are not based on anything in your life, you may be feeling another person’s feelings.

3. Physical Sensations

Clairsentience also triggers physical sensations in your body. This can be a tickle or a pressure. A tingling sensation on the top of the head (crown chakra) has often been reported. It may also, in extreme cases, be physical pain.

Many clairsentients experience a tapping, a nudging or a pulling. Sometimes this physical manifestation is to direct your attention towards a certain person, problem or solution.

4. Emotional Attachments

The most unusual clairsentience manifestation is a deep and unbreakable emotional attachment to someone else. You can sense or "feel" them at a distance.  Even when you and the other person have conflicts or have broken up the relationship, you still continue to feel connected. If you are emotionally attached (or energetically linked) to someone who is experiencing ups and downs, you feel them too. Unless this attachment or energy link is severed, you may be at the mercy of someone else’s highs and lows. This can continue for long periods of time. There are energy rituals and chakra work that balances your own emotions in order to cut the spiritual/energetic ties you have to another person.

Collaborative thoughts......

MARCH 12, 2017

For Everyone: Our need for solid information opposes our desire to ignore the facts and rely on our intuition. The rational Virgo Full Moon opposes the dreamy Pisces Sun at 10:53 am EDT, creating a tug of war between our heads and our hearts. Meanwhile, brainy Mercury squares strict Saturn, requiring us to put our data in order before making up our minds. Nevertheless, it's not an all-or-nothing choice; drawing from logic and imagination is a winning strategy.

This is so intuitive for what I have in my life today. 

CANCER: Expansion.

Bianca and Jade

The first part of the month will be more difficult to deal with because you will be put on trial and this could mean being afraid. However fear not, because since the second part you will be able to detach from all forms of emotional involvement, and what will be important to you, will be doing everything in good conscience without the need for approval from others; just yours.

New collaborations, new people will come into your life and you will feel the need to participate in public and social life through your job, helping yourself to build a better world. Possibility of changes in the work sector.

Love will conquer all.

I saw a friend of mine today who was bald from chemotherapy. She had big smile a looked so cute with her hat. It was fun hugging her a telling her "I love you". Which I do. 

For those of you that know my unfiltered brain and ungoverned vocabulary.....and willingness to discuss topics that would make a priest blush.....her cheeks had a rosy glow at the end of your conservation.

My thoughts will be with her forever. I will see what Tuesday afternoon is like for her. I love you Diane.

Love will heal all.

This is goooood

Three Habits to Get Rid of Negative Emotions

2. Hugs

Oxytocin, or ‘the cuddle’ hormone is another hormone that affects our emotional state. When the level of oxytocin increases in our body, we feel more relaxed and at peace. According to psychologist Alex Korb, oxytocin produces a soothing sensation reducing our emotional reactivity to negative thoughts and the elements that can make our environment threatening.

Korb argued that interpersonal touch is one of the most powerful ways to increaseoxytocin in the body: hugs, handshakes, light taps on the shoulder, and orgasms are all practices that increase the level of oxytocin in the body. In addition to personal contact, contact with hot and soft objects also has a calming and relaxing effect:

“The feeling of heat can increase oxytocin – or at least mimic its effects. So if you can not be hugged, wrap yourself in a blanket and hold in your hands a cup of hot tea. A shower or a hot batha can also help.” Alex Korb, spiraling upwards: The neuroscience of depression.”

keep stepping through infinity........

We will move on to live life at the next level of humanity. Seeing and having clarity are different. Seeing the difference and using the sight wisely is tricky. 

Time management and making a path for others. Seems OK. Continue to share all the positive energy. Give away as much as you can daily - the energy source will recharge you.

What your Day of week were you born?

Today

Focus on your life now in the present. The only real moment is now, the past is irretrievably lapsed, and the future has not yet occurred. Clear your mind of worries, illusions and extrapolations. Clear mental clutter out of your mind to create space for the Higher Self.

Patience is the key for progress!

Fading away.......

Your behavior makes it so easy to broaden the distance........no family ties.....no protection can be offered......to connection can be used to help.  The lie you live makes the essences of any memories evaporate. Your relevance to society is the guy in the bar stool next to hoping the next sip they take is the frontal lobotomy each drink provides.  

This is your pinnacle. You have peaked. 

When I try to use my sight to see your future I see fog.......as your life rolls. Allison had her paintings, Bob his law practice.......you have lived up to your heritage.....Jinkx. 

.........now I have to turn my back on you.

Today the sun is ever so shy, she clothed herself
in soft blue cloth, furtively peeps through slim silver
lines at the quiet, misty world - seeing something
good from time to time, then her shiny crown lights
up behind the soft, hiding clouds, she is smiling in
delight at some of the sights, around me the sound
of paper tearing, everyone is throwing things away
the regulation way, making lists of books, dragging
bags around; I have even fixed up two boxes for me,
emptied my bookcase, regarded my papers – then
ran away, packing is a distasteful action, there are
too many things I dislike today, no wonder the sun
is hiding her face, she knew what was coming!
I’ll follow the sun in hiding my face away too,
tomorrow is another day and clearly today
was not made for living – but for
quietly fading away…

Is it to late to change..........never is!

Tuesday, January 10, 2017

- Although you can be a lot more flexible than anyone realizes, you may choose to dig in your heels today and stubbornly resist change. But the shocking Sun-Uranus square casts things in an entirely different light. Thankfully, you surprise everyone by how quickly you adapt to the new scene once you see how your actions affect the ones you love. However, it's not an easy transition, because you vacillate between wanting the sensual benefits of an intimate relationship and your need to maintain emotionally secure boundaries. Compromise is an act of strength that demonstrates the depth of your commitment.
