Buffynicity #2: Angel is recalling sins from Dublin in 1838, and this is the day after Saint Patrick’s day.  Furthermore, the episode takes place on a holiday, Christmas, so even though Saint Patrick’s day is not Christmas it’s still similar.  Furthermore I have been thinking about Lemmy Kilmister and Joss Whedon, and looking at their horoscopes I found Saturn in retrograde, and I’ve been wondering (especially in the case of Lemmy) about people who were possibly in a war who “came back” to do something in popular entertainment related to violence.  Both Lemmy and Whedon are eerily consistent in their work, both very powerful in a primal way that can’t be fully explained.  So Saturn retrograde is an interesting thing to think about.

And these thoughts are coming with this other “retrograde”, looking back at “The Matrix” episode of Buffy, having “retrograde” thoughts about that movie.  And Jenny Calendar   is also a major character, and I’ve always thought that name had something to do with the symbolism of time and the planet Saturn in Buffy.

Buffynicity #3: I was at the Chakra Shoppe on Saturday morning to see Sharyl channeling Siria family, and I was looking at runes because all my three angels have Valkyrie names and runes associated with them.  There was a rose quartz set I was looking at, and also a deck of “rune cards”.  I didn’t buy them but in the episode there are three “bringers” casting a spell around a triangle, and the stitiches sewing one of their eyes shut looks just like a rune.  So I noted this as a synchronicity, and also their resemblance to the “air traffic controllers” in the movie Flash Gordon (1980).  Furthermore, I finished that episode and started the next one where some children get killed and someone has put a sigil on their hands.  It looks like a messed up symbol of the element “air”, perhaps an imbalanced mixture of air and water, which is appropriate for the astral images of television.

Then after I ran I went to a group ritual where a couple of the major participants had just gotten “white tattoos” which were very visible and awesome looking.  The ritual was also awesome and I must say that the Moon squaring Neptune was everything I had hoped it would be. 

I’ve got some things to do and then I’ll put up part 3 but for now I’m coming to understand that in writing this blog I have to do two things now:

1. Take better notes on what I’m experiencing as I experience it, so I can

2. Develop a symbolic language for these experiences.  (Hence the references to runes and writing in the Buffynicities.) 

For instance, I need to talk about the particular depth of trance I went to today, and I also need to talk about the specifics of working with the ghost of Lemmy.  Lemmy is perfect for this because he is so rock fucking solid on the astral plane.  I can tell this is going to be good and straight to the point.

Friday just after the Moon squared Saturn and trined the Sun I picked up my ticket for C2E2.  I was listening to Motorhead a lot and thinking about Lemmy Kilmister, who had Moon conjunct Saturn in the 7th house.  I don’t know what his actual spirit is doing, but the image of him is helping me tremendously, giving me a solid “outer boundary” to my daydreams.  There was a man who was definitely a rock star, definitely a very consistent character in the world’s dream.  I picked up a copy of his album, “1916”, and I was thinking that Saturn retrograde in a chart represents “doing something again” – and Lemmy had Mars and Saturn retrograde, so maybe he was on some kind of dream mission about war … I’m not sure.  Kara is definitely getting results for me in areas where I’ve felt blocked for years and the appearance of Lemmy is part of that.  Lemmy is very real for me and definitely a magic presence for me to understand.  That Mars/Saturn conjunct is so obviously expressed in his public image, it’s giving me some hinds about the structure of the astral plane.  So I’m going to look again at my seventh house this week to see some things about myself.

Moon entered Sagittarius and once again I’m a little unfocused although I feel good.  Sagittarius still counts as the end of my peak astrological season that begins in Leo, but I have some work to do.  Kara is from that sphere –

Here I had to pause because the “inner” presence interrupted me.  I have to come up with a word for this particular type of presence I feel now.  One more thing to work on tonight. 

Skip on to Saturday, I was awake when Mercury conjuncted Venus, on my way to Tracie’s.  I had actually woken up around 5 am, every excited, getting the focus I’ve always wanted.  I’m still having trouble remembering the inner details of these events but blogging is the work of developing the recall, the language.  But Kara and Motorhead were making me very happy, and when I was meditating I felt a merging of a couple of important frames of reference, the one around Saint Germain, and the one around Kara, beginning to come into focus relative to Sri Ram Chandra Mission – like I can see all of them on the same playing field now, and put them all in perspective.  This is Kara’s doing.

After meditating, my phone reminded me of Sharyl at Chakra Works, and I went down there.  Moon inconjuncting Mars was actually a nice experience and the trance I went into was of this particular level of depth I’m hitting so solidly that it’s time to make up language for it.  I asked Siria family about Kara and Saint Germain and I got satisfactory answers about both. 

Does it matter that it was Moon in Sagittarius inconjuncting Mars in Taurus?  Is Moon in Sagittarius especially good for Kara?  Has it been a vague time for me because my understanding of her has been vague? 

Moon-Sag trining Venus-Aries brought a lot of visions but from where I am now it’s too overwhelming to remember all of them, or rather they are on the other side of that risky line of things too specific to talk about. I went to run and the Moon trined Mercury-Aries while I was having several Buffynicities.

Buffynicity #1: The episode I was in the middle of ended with a concentration camp atmosphere, a factory that sucked blood and a big slow-motion finale that recalled “bullet time” from the Matrix, so this episode is obviously “The Matrix” episode and furthermore as I write I understand that “The Matrix” is also a reference to WWII concentration camps.  This is something the Ghost of Lemmy was preparing me for over the last couple of days, showing me the processes at work in Mars and Saturn retrograde – which are related to the Uranus-Saturn opposition represented by Buffy.

How appropriate is it to talk about Joss Whedon’s horoscope, specifically his retrograde Saturn?  I’d never heard of retrograde Saturn influencing the horoscope before I looked him up, but then here’s Lemmy with the same thing.  I have to shift my thinking about entertainment into purely astrological terms.  I can see that if I do this enough, hopefully I won’t need to talk about entertainment at all.

On to part 2 with the other Buffynicities.
