Concerning Christianity

The following is from this:

https://moonshadow13.weebly.com/teachings.html

You have heard the Christians say that only through Jesus Christ can you enter into the Great Realm. So I tell you that Jesus was the spirit of love, and only by love may you enter in.

You have heard the Christians say much concerning the teachings of Jesus, but how many have you seen follow them? So I say to you that Christianity, as Jesus taught it, died with him on the cross. Even his own disciples were more concerned with their self images and self- importance.

The Christians say that we are evil and dangerous, but who is the more so? They believe the world will end, and teach others concerning this, speak of the destruction which their god will bring. The mind has great power, and many minds of one belief have much power (even to accomplish a great destruction). So I say to you that there shall indeed be this time of sorrow. But out of the ashes shall arise the new World of Reason. For the Great Ones shall use this to fulfill the plan, through the teachings of the Daughter.

There shall never be peace between our religions, for they ever strive against us. It is useless to attempt to reason with them, for they have never been known for their ability to reason. They choose to have faith in place of understanding.

Therefore, it is best to avoid them so as not to anger them. For anger, always follows lack of understanding. Remember also the time of persecution to come, and reveal nothing to them that shall harm our people or our ways.

It is sad that our ways of spirit cannot be extended to, nor be shared with, the Christians.

Past and Prophecy Part III

There will be the prognostication of the new Child of Promise as Mars and Venus are destroyed and thus ushers the Age of Mercury. The souls of the pure of heart will be forged once again into pure rays of energy and--after being forged by the fire of the sun and the water of the moon--take their place in the Universe and all at last will be at rest.

Social Media Odds and Ends

Today will be short and sweet, guys. Just some social media odds and ends that are suspicious, but good for us.

The first comes from @eeds on IG. She sent me the message below.

The comment she made is a little small in this pic. It says, “Maybe this is a sign of something.” That’s what the official account liked. 

Always great when official accounts sort of confirm our suspicions, isn’t it? ;D

The second is something a Nonny sent me that Emily posted. This went into her Instastory the other day:

Now, of course it’s just another musical group she’s listening to, and she posts these all the time. Nothing we can prove. But heaven knows she’s been dropping hints lately, and just I just can’t help but think of this:

Just saying.

Yeah, that’s really it for today. Thoughts?

Is that a cover of the 10,000 Maniacs song?

Past and Prophecy Part II

The Gods saw fit to sent her a protector until such time when her eyes were opened to the bridegroom and all was ready. This protector was not perfect--and he--perhaps unbeknowst to even himself--was sent by the Gods to baptize the bride by fire so that she would be prepared for the fight that lay ahead. He performed overall his task very well and to the best of his ability, thus gaining the lifelong loyalty and friendship of the bride (and perhaps the bridegroom as well).

i think he was kinda like, ‘there’s something good in you and i haven’t seen anything good in forever.’ it’s like — it’s being like lost in the woods for miles and miles and starving and finding an apple tree with an apple on it. you know, it’s like, there’s something good out there and maybe that’s you and maybe you can show me whatever you know.  [x] [x]

Past and Prophecy Part I

In the beginning, Diana came down from the Moon worlds and drew down the moon. She walked along the shores of Lake Nemi near the city of Volterra, Tuscany. She loved and protected her children, both flora and fauna, as well as her hidden children of Spirit.

Diana loved without judgment or expectations. She was the gift of the Spirit’s blessing sent by the Gods of the cosmos which are real and as multitudinous as there are people on the earth. She cultivated beauty and taught her hidden children to do likewise, teaching the how to grow crops and practice non-violent animal husbandry.

But soon her time was unappreciated. Men created their own laws of establishing a patriarchy. She was taken by Hades and brought to the desert, where she was raped and humiliated repeatedly, suffering for all ignorance of man, who did not live by the rules of Spirit, but rather the letter of the Law. They chose to have faith in place of understanding. Soon the age of the Mother came to pass and the Age of the Father shone, its strict face upon every land on earth. This was the time of massive destruction that lasted a millenia.

Then upon the earth rose the Son of Man, who tried to teach the lost hidden children. He wandered the world, speaking in parables, leaving his dry desert birthplace and attempting to bring not only peace, but the sword of justice. For his efforts he was accused of heresy and suffered, bleeding for the sins of man-made law. Emmanuel was slain upon a cross of wood, a crown of thorns upon his head. His disciples stopped working for the Spirit of the Law, and instead stubbornly clung to the Letter of the Law, choosing to have faith in place of understanding.

Centuries passed, and the Gods saw fit to send forth a Daughter who would succeed where the Son of Man had failed, because she was the Holy Spirit come to establish understanding through love. Legends abounded about her patience and beauty, and she taught--like her brother before her--the ancient ways, using parables when necessary. Some told tales of her having been born in Volterra--as her Moon Mother Luna had done. Others say she never existed at all, but her hidden children recognized her through the secret of the hands and the knowledge of wisdom of the old ways. People called her by many names--but only to Diana’s children was her secret name revealed.

SUMMER LOVE

Here is a poem I wrote back in my early 20s, with no idea who it was about:

I remember when I first saw

that spark of light within you

I nearly drove off the road

and hit a brick wall of anguish and despair

But then I looked beyond the fire

there you were.

Standing there,

the sun was 

resurrected in the

brightness of you,

and in the softness of your hair

And just when I thought life

was terribly cold

It turns to giving fair.

Ovid’s Metamorphoses

So I was re-reading this when a storm blew into town last night. The Etruscans used to say that--unlike the Greeks and Romans--who said thunder and lightning occur when two forces meet. To the Etruscans though, two forces meet IN ORDER to create the results. Here are some excerpts I found interesting:

“Everything changes and nothing can die, for the spirit wanders wherever it wishes to, now here and now there, living with whatever body it chooses, and passing from feral to human and then back from human to feral, and at no time does it ever cease its existence; and just as soft as wax easily takes on a new shape, unable to stay as it was  or keep the same form, and yet is still wax, I preach that the spirit is always the same even though it migrates to various bodies.

-why, isn’t water itself subjected to taking and giving new shapes?”

These come from the teaching of Pythagoras.

Do you think beth's and dawn fight at the end of coda was staged? I have been thinking that they both planned it for some reason, dawn told beth about the crm and struck a deal with beth, noah will stay then told to go on a run and told to go to beth, but they staged the fight to save face in front of the hospital cops, but when Beth stabbed Dawn someone else shot Beth, maybe another cop? the ones outside? The doctor? That's why Dawn was so surprised and Rick believe her

It’s an interesting theory. We really have no way of knowing what was going on behind the scenes, because they still haven’t bothered to tell us. I do think there were a lot of unseen things happening at Grady, so anything is possible. Unfortunately for us, we can’t do much but wait until they decide to give us answers. We’re at they’re mercy. 😐 Xoxo! 😘

“Look not at what can be seen, but what is unseen.” -Father Gabriel (I am not a Christian so I don’t know which part of the Scripture that is...

[twdmusicboxmystery]

So, there is this theorie that Beth will save Daryl from drowning after the endfight with the whisperers at Oceanside. Do you think this theorie is possible?

Yes, I think there is a lot of evidence pointing toward this theory. And keep in mind, it could possibly be symbolic or that we’re interpreting it slightly differently than it will play out. It’s never possible to know EXACTLY what symbolism points to until we see it play out. But I can definitely get behind that theory and the symbolism it comes from. 👍 Xoxo! 💖

[austincitylimitlessworld]

They will save each other. That’s how it works.

Michonne, Rick Grimes, Daryl Dixon, and Beth Greene are asking all of you to please wear your mask! 😷😷😷😷

Protect yourself and others during this coronavirus pandemic. ♥️Thank you♥️

And please stay safe! 👍🏼

[austincitylimitlessworld]

Hahhaha I just pull my shirt over my nose instead. It’s thicker than those flimsy little masks and I don’t have to worry about misplacing it like a bandanna.

[neversleepingever]

Start by pulling him out of the fire and

hoping that he will forget the smell.

He was supposed to be an angel but they took him

from that light and turned him into something hungry,

something that forgets what his hands are for when they

aren’t shaking.

He will lose so much, and you will watch it all happen

because you had him first, and you would let the world

break its own neck if it means keeping him.

Start by wiping the blood off of his chin and

pretending to understand.

Repeat to yourself

“I won’t leave you, I won’t leave you”

until you fall asleep and dream of the place

where nothing is red.

When is a monster not a monster?

Oh, when you love it.

Oh, when you used to sing it to sleep.

Here are your upturned hands.

Give them to him and watch how he prays

like he is learning his first words.

Start by pulling him out of another fire,

and putting him back together with the pieces

you find on the floor.

There is so much to forgive, but you do not

know how to forget.

When is a monster not a monster?

Oh, when you are the reason it has become so mangled.

Here is your humble offering,

obliterated and broken in the mouth

of this abandoned church.

He has come back to stop the world

from turning itself inside out, and you love him, you do,

so you won’t let him.

Tell him that you will never know any better.

Pretend to understand why that isn’t good enough.

Beautiful. One of these days I’ll have to put some of my poetry up here.

Gee she looks familiar. It’s like looking in a mirror...only not.

[twdmusicboxmystery]

TWD just tweeted asking people to like for Caryl and retweet for Donnie. I’m like, ‘Bethyl ftw!”I wonder if this is a subtle way of reminding people of Daryl’s romantic connections with Beth.

Yeah. It’s unfortunate that they keep doing that, but I agree with your assessment. I think they want people thinking about Daryl’s love life (or lack thereof). Especially if Beth shows up in the finale, I think this will make more sense. (And I think she will.) They can’t exactly suggest Beth for Daryl without letting out the big reveal, so they’re pushing the other two, and just giving Beth/Emily a lot of social media attention in general.

I’ve said this before, but I think the idea is that they’re saying Daryl will be getting a love life soon, and they’re teasing people by suggesting it’s either going to be Door #1 (Caryl) or Door #2 (Donnie). When secretly, it’s going to be What-Is-Hidden-Door #3 (Bethyl). 

But yeah. I do wish they’d quit riling up the shippers this way. 😐 Xoxo! 💝

[austincitylimitlessworld]

I think groups one and two are going to eat it. I like Carol and I like Connie, but Daryl’s soul mate is, was, and will always be Beth. Remember what Nicotero said “It’s all about misdirection”....and he wasn’t just talking about season 5B. I am a writer who holds a B.A in English Lit. so obviously I am well-read. And I know how to analyze a story, It’s not theory to me. I know how plot designs work, and you don’t just leave loose ends tied up--unless it’s some weird post-modernist shit, which I loathe.

I love TWD subtitles. 😆

[austincitylimitlessworld]

I used to be a sign language interpreter, until I got carpal tunnel. Now I work with autistic kids. If you want a real kick, turn on mute with no subtitles and watch. No wonder Deaf people think we’re nuts!
