Coming of Age in the Aquarian: The news to my left...

Coming of Age in the Aquarian

Mankind is evolving in mind as well as in body. Indeed the body is a reflection of mind or consciousness. As we enter the 2000-year span of the Age of Aguarius, we find that the ground rules are subtly different from those of the preceeding age, Pisces. Many changes since the turn of the century in 1900 indicate greater emphasis on a scientific approach to life, choosing a way of life that is more suited to one's personal needs, and redefining roles, such as God-self, man-woman, parent-child, society-individual, and so on. To me life must be a conscious journey to have meaning. But mind must be balanced with heart. Here in this manifestation of the Aquarian age, the web-log, we will explore the unfolding of consciousness and other topics. I say "we," because your comments can only contribute to this venture, indeed they are needed. This weblog is dedicated to the greater good and all of us monkeys in this sometimes exotic stew. DISCLAIMER: I reserve the right to be silly sometimes, to sometimes completely miss the point, to be unfocused until I'm focused and to occasionally speak from atop a soapbox.

The news to my left...

Journal Entry Date: 29 Sept 2004

Thought for the Day:
the news to my left over the dunes and
reeds and bayberry clumps was
fall: thousands of tree swallows
gathering for flight:
an order held
in constant change: a congregation
rich with entropy; nevertheless, separable, noticeable
as one event,
not chaos: preparations for
flight from winter,
cheet, cheet, cheet, cheet, wings rifling the green clumps,
beaks
at the bayberries
a perception full of wind, flight, curve,
sound:
the possibility of rule as the sum of rulelessness;
the "field" of action
with moving, incalculable center:

--A.R. Ammons, Corsons Inlet
(THE SELECTED POEMS, Expanded Edition, p.45)

Brought to eye/mind today:
The beauty of Ammon's work, the clarity he evokes.

Thank you, Lord, for alternate routes.

Journal:

Had a lovely little lunch at D.R.'s place. Usually it's popcorn, a serving of protein, and a can of V-8--all tasty and welcome, when you're hungry.

At work MapInfo fixed.
