750 words - day 6

 So I did something a bit unusually different the other day. I did a meditative trance healing for a former version of myself. I have this understanding that I do not (we, none of us do) live in just this one seemingly present reality. This reality that I see myself living in is like the dream that I am awake in while I'm sleeping.  It's only one facet of the complex nature of my immortal soul. When I, this body in this reality am sleeping, and then enter into dream activities, perhaps those other versions of "me" that I see are just as real as this one here seems to be. I live just as hard and with as much focus in those dream-me realities as I do in this one. Its just that this one is what has captured the majority of my conscious awareness. In this healing I performed I wanted to forgive versions of myself that were injured emotionally in their alternate dimensions, because after all, they are part of what make up my current reality. I wanted to heal the broken art...

750 words - day 4

 Midnight came, and 40 minutes of it passed before I gave up the fight in my mind about what to write about here tonight. Since I had no new ideas rising I was debating waiting till morning to see if I had any dreams occur that I could describe. Some of my most enjoyable writing in the past is when I have dreams that I can remember after waking that I felt like documenting. One of the very first pieces of creative writing I did when I was a sophomore in high school was one of these "endeavors"... to not do more than just write down descriptions of what it was that I saw, felt, and experienced in my dreams one particular night. My creative writing teacher thought it showed signs of promise for me to have a future as a writer, and it was probably the tantamount event of anything I did in all the years I was in high school trying to garner academic acclaim. I remember that the next time I tried to write something as prosaic as that first "story", it fell flat. Trying t...

proceeding with attempt at "channel-writing"...

  So this is a new endeavor I’m exploring. Going to try to channel some information about an event that occurred, somewhere, sometime in recent history. I know literally no information about the details of what happened. I do know that a murder occurred, and this is what I’m hoping to garner details about... I came upon this idea to try to “channel while writing” just recently, so let’s see how this goes. I see this as only an exercise that will get me more active in writing again, and stretch and develop my channeling skills. So I’ve already grounded and connected to the energetic essence of “this occurrence”... now I’m just going to begin writing spontaneously allowing ideas, a voice, and descriptions to develop on their own... I already feel like it’s “the house” that the murders occurred in that wants to share its insights with and thru me. A house is a physical construct, but it is also constructed of “energy”... It vibrates with energy, it IS energy, and it absorbs the energy...

 blahablahahahahalblaaahbiddelyblahhhhh i don't know what to write about right now, but I'm sitting here in a cafe and it's what I do when I'm in cafes... sometimes I don't even decide to goto a cafe until I know I have a topic to explore, but today I came to a cafe becuase my best friend said she had time to a cafe, and did I want to come, and yes, of course, I wanted to meet her there... she and I used to cafe sooooo much in the early years of our friendship, aside from cemeteries, cafes were the central place that we would meet to spend time together...  I just scrubbed my memory to figure out how long we've been friends, we met pretty close to 11 years and 6 months ago... anyway... what else is going on? I did a LOT of walking last week, and using the Strava app my mileage was recorded; nearly 20 miles! A new incentive is using another phone app called RANDONAUTICA... it's a little tricky getting that app to work properly... like, it needs a data connect...

lighting the creative fires, NOW

 Okay so it's Scorpio Season again, which should really be the most potent period of the year for my own creative endeavors. Since I also have Scorpio as my rising sign, it's a time when I should be flooded with creative ideas and energy... Last year at this time this energy kicked in quite easily and naturally for me, but this year I've been missing the calling just a litle bit. So this is an effort to kick it up, ignite the fire, and talk out loud about some ideas I have... I know I was talking about doing Nanowrimo in some recent posts. That project begins on this upcoming Monday! Just 3 days away. I've had experiences in the past where I would begin writing at the turn of midnight... after being up all night for Halloween enticements, I'd go to my local cemetery with my laptop, sit at the top of the hill and write my first 1660 words. I'm not that spiritually excited this year to do that... not yeat at least. There have been years where I have spent the enti...
