The purpose of this blog is to register some feelings, images, poems, opinions and ideas mainly related to the Captain Swan fairy tale in a way to assemble a mosaic, built up by many many Captain Swan fans around the world, as a homage to this ongoing myth.
Sometimes just wondering, I write random texts that could be classified as (mini) meta and/or speculation:
1. It’s all about choice; 2. Keeping Balance in the Full Cycle; 3. The hero of a thousand faces (in OUaT); 4. The inner world challenges; 5.Foreshadowing…?; 6. 5B (Captain Swan) Wishing List; 7.Have they, have they not - yet?; 8. The Subtle Bodies; 9. Once Upon a (Non)Linear Time; 10.Patricide in Once Upon a Time; 11. True Love; 12. Killian and Emma navigating with the stars and finding their True North; 13. Once Upon an Ugly Duckling; 14. Firebird; 15. The Romance of Piracy; 16. Unfinished Business; 17. Pre-season 5B Feelings; 18. Tortured Killian Jones in the Underworld; 19. Guessing a little; 20. An Untold Story; 21. A Ballad for Robin Hood; 22. On Milah and Rumple.
Sometimes, I bring some texts that may be not directly related to OUAT and/or Captain Swan, but somehow they are correlated to the blog and its thematic.
1. Argonauts in Nature; 2. Jason and The Argonauts; 3. The Underground and The Underworld; 4.The Disease of Being Busy; 5. Allan Watts on accepting the darkness of self and others, according to Jung; 6. February, 2nd: Yemanja, Queen of the Sea .
One of the premises of this blog is to navigate into musical waves that, somehow, translate my perception of characters and plot lines in season 5, mainly, and, more broadly speaking, in the OUaT universe, as a whole. So, instead of just writing meta texts, I have been also speaking by means of images (pictures, screen captures and gifs, which I don’t make myself but indicate their credits), sounds (music clips) and someone else’s texts (again, credits are given).

More random thoughts may be depicted from the tags: more than legends, they are thought- and guide- lines, as the posts succeed (from bottom to top).
As a chronological note, the blog has started in between the first airing date of episodes 5x10 and 5x11 (beginning of December 2015).
