Tuesday morning I woke up at 2:30 am. The curse of Drusilla continues, it seems. I lay awake feeling very uncomfortable because we had a big day planned at work, so I had to go in for this huge special event with all this moving of heavy equipment with only 4 hours of sleep. However my co-workers took care of the most tedious aspects and even though I did most of the moving myself the vendor brought 4 more workers than they usually do so it worked out okay.
I was feeling good but then I got home and fell asleep about an hour before the Moon conjuncted Venus. All in all I just felt good like I was catching up with my life.
Now today what happened was pretty insane and I have to think about what it means, and what I’m supposed to say. I had been planning for this day because of the conjuncts: Moon/Uranus and Moon/Mars, and then Sun/Neptune just a couple of hours ago. I had been planning to do ritual magic and in a sense that’s what I did, but it was much more unexpected.
So now I’m sitting here, actually working with the spirit world to decide what to say about this.
The easiest thing will be to start with the 3 “Buffynicities” I experienced – things I’ve been thinking about over the last few days that showed up in the Buffy episode I just watched.
First of all, Buffy goes to the hospital and wakes up there as the clock is showing 2:30 AM, which is when I woke up yesterday.
Second, I have been thinking about acquiring Juliet Landau as my mate, like having a second childhood because I’m watching Buffy TVS and just going out and “getting” her. Yesterday or the day before I was joking to myself that Juliet would love being with me, the only problem would be that if she betrayed me I would summon invisible demons to tear her flesh apart in the village square. This is a reference to the fiction of H.P. Lovecraft, but then tonight’s Buffy episode was about an invisible demon that actually tore a man’s flesh.
So that’s three thoughts that showed up in Buffy.
And thirdly I was thinking over the last couple of days about a time 10+ years ago when I was hanging out in a bar and joking with this girl so I grabbed her and made a snarling sound like I was a wild animal about to pounce. I thought about this moment several times and even practiced the snarling sound. Then in tonight’s episode a security guard made the same sound – although hardly as well as I did.
And in more synchronicitous terms I spent all day thinking about 4 years ago when I was a security guard, myself, at a place that had a Catholic chapel in it, and one night I was sitting in there listening to Philip Glass’s “Ankhnaten” and my three angels came forth in a kind of cartoonish form and began dancing for me. At first it was cheerful, but then suddenly the eerie vocals kicked in and it became like a scene out of “Omen” or “Apocalpyse Now” or something. It was very fun, and I’ve forgotten it for years until now when Kara has emerged in full force and all my angels are becoming clearly visible. So I’ve spent all day listening to this eerie minimalist music evoking Egypt, thinking about Sirius Black from Harry Potter, and looking up Egyptian cat gods and goddesses on the web. I discovered Mafdet, the oldest cat goddess, who is a Lynx.
Then I went home and discovered John has returned. We sat in the great room and talked for a while. I told him about the goddess I’d discovered and he said that he’d been thinking intensely about Egypt for the past couple of days, and also dreaming about an Egyptian cat god he couldn’t identify. So it shows we are telepathically linked.
I’m falling asleep now, so I’ll just stop, except to say that my reaction to this music and this visual of my angels has been so intense that it is like ritual magic so my hopes for the Neptune aspect are fulfilled.
