Dreams, the Occult, and Astrology
X Number of days ago, I dreamt that I was in a meeting with the head of Metropolis Records with Brian. The meeting concluded on Metropolis wanting to sign a deal with us. Upon our departure, I had forgotten my shoes, so I immediately ran back and retrieved them, noticing that many others had forgotten their shoes there as well.
Dreammoods.com had this to say about it:
"In general, shoes represent your approach to life. It suggests that you are well-grounded or that you are down to earth. It also represents your convictions about your beliefs. If you are changing your shoes, then it refers to your changing roles. You are taking a new approach to life. If your forget your shoes, then it suggests that you are leaving restraints behind you. You are refusing to conform to some idea or attitude."
"To dream that you are not wearing any shoes, signifies that you have a lack of confidence in yourself and low self-assurance. You may be dealing with issues concerning your self-identity. Thus if you dream that you lose your shoes, then it suggests that you may be searching for your identity and finding/exploring who you are."
Last night, I dreamt that Alfa-Matrix mailed me a package of M&M's.
To which dreammoods.com has this to say about Chocolate:
"To see chocolate in your dream, signifies self-reward."
I had also dreamt of some really cool, flashy new Anti-Mech logo thing that was constructed in our High School to denote that we had gone there. Bizarre dreams masturbating my ego...
Anyways!
I've recently discovered a .PDF viewer for my PSP. I started by collecting the complete works of Lovecraft and Palahniuk. Then I put on an assload of texts from Crowley and LeVay for fun. This lead to hours of collecting rare occultist texts as it began to peak my interests. My collection right now is looking very, very sexy... very.
I began talking to my friend Jenni about the whole occultism thing for a good chunk of the night as she helped turn me towards other essential occultist texts that I was missing. Eventually, she went on to the subject of Astrology, something else she knows much more about than I do. I asked for my astrological chart based on my birth information and these were the results:
"Rising Sign is in 27 Degrees Sagittarius
You are known for being open, frank, outgoing and honest. At times, though, you are also blunt and quite indiscreet. Others have to learn not to take everything you say personally, because you usually do not mean any harm. You appreciate living your life in a straightforward and simple manner -- you dislike social niceties and consider them to be hindrances to real communication. You have lots and lots of energy and tend to become quite restless if you feel confined. You demand the freedom to do as you choose -- you must be self- directed or you feel trapped and anxious. With your abundant energy, you enjoy being outdoors, and you should be attracted to physical exercise or to those forms of sport which can help you burn off some of that excess energy. Very gregarious, you love to socialize -- your innate enthusiasm livens up any gathering."
"Sun is in 10 Degrees Aries.
By nature, you are very energetic and high-spirited. You are fiercely independent -- you must be first in everything you do, and you enjoy taking risks. You are the one who will rush in where angels fear to tread. Quite brilliant at initiating new projects, you are terrible at following them through to completion. You are an enthusiastic leader but you tend to be a reluctant follower. Often you are quick to anger, but you usually recover just as fast, regretting later things you said when you were upset. One of your best traits is that you are simple and direct, blunt and honest -- just be careful you do not hurt others' feelings. Your need to be competitive at all costs may provoke resistance from others, but, as long as you maintain your usual Sunny good humor, this should not prove to be a major problem for you."
"Moon is in 29 Degrees Cancer.
For the most part, you are very strong and secure emotionally. You intuitively know what to do to make others feel comfortable, loved, accepted and needed. You naturally enjoy feeding and taking care of others. Be careful that your mothering does not turn into smothering. At times, you tend to feel that those to whom you are attached can never do anything without your assistance and support. Extremely sensitive by nature, it hurts you deeply whenever anyone criticizes you. You have an almost desperate need to be loved and wanted and needed by everyone with whom you come into contact, and you go out of your way to be accommodating to them."
"Mercury is in 16 Degrees Aries.
Very quick-witted, you are known for being an independent thinker. You love to debate and argue, and are excellent at repartee and battles of wits. At times, however, you act too fast on hastily formed opinions and thus waste a lot of energy defending your rash and sometimes incorrect conclusions. It is perfectly acceptable for you to defend your beliefs with your usual vigor, but try not to take the opinions of others as personal insults."
"Venus is in 16 Degrees Aries.
You are a very affectionate person but you hate to be tied down. You are more than willing to be the aggressor in initiating new relationships. Indeed, once you have set your sights on someone, you tend to pursue him or her ardently and passionately. But you do demand your own way in a relationship. Try to give in to your partner's needs and desires once in a while."
"Mars is in 11 Degrees Taurus.
Careful, slow and thorough about all that you do, at times you are also willful and stubborn when others try to alter your course. You are definitely not a quitter -- you will work long and hard to get what you want. Your possessions are very important to you. One of your continuing problems is that you tend to regard the significant people in your life much the same way as you do your possessions -- you become overly attached and much too jealous. You repress your anger when you get upset and that is not healthy. Try to learn to show your anger immediately in order to avoid painful explosions later."
"Jupiter is in 10 Degrees Aquarius.
Your personal growth occurs when you have the freedom to do things in new and interesting ways -- this brings out your natural inventiveness. You are an individualist, but you are also attracted to mass movements that emphasize social betterment and you will devote much time and energy to their efforts. Very fair- minded and objective, you have extraordinary skills at organization and administration."
Some of it appears to be very accurate while some of it appears to be a bit off. But then again, my opinion on the subject of myself is a bit biased. If you've actually read this far, what do you think?
