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.
