The Buffy Diaries 4-5-2017 — Straight Up

7:53 PM 4/5/2017  I just looked up the weather, and after raining all day it’s actually going to be a storm tonight.  This is synchronous because Saturn is going retrograde and Sun-Aries is aspecting Moon-Leo, and Mars is aspecting Pluto.  I already knew this was going to be a big night for fire, and fire is related to storm in my personal mythology.***

The question was, what was I going to say about it?  It rained all god damn day.  It was terribly dreary.  I wanted to go across the street to the gas station to get soft drinks but I had no umbrella.  And of course this would be the day I pick to go grocery shopping – I’ve been too busy the other nights, and I have plans Thursday and Friday so I got to haul my groceries around in the rain.  It was a big drag on the way home, worrying about parking, but I actually wound up getting the space closest to my front door, which was a good sign.

I’m about to go run. I have lots of notes about the day.  The spirit presence is here.  I’m struggling with the “dead zone”, an inert blackness that I have in my mind that doesn’t want to respond to anything.  But I do have a sense of “them” being very real and I am learning to give up looking for rational explanations.  There’s an energy spike going straight up.  I wonder if Spike will somehow go “straight up” in tonight’s episode?

10:15 PM 4/5/2017  So I was watching tonight’s episodes and there were a number of synchronicities but the absolute biggest one was in the second episode, the “Thanksgiving” episode, Buffy says “I like my evil the way I like my men … straight up."  So there you have it, on this crazy night of storms and ritual magic I actually got a telepathic prediction of a line from Buffy TVS.  I have an existential issue to face now.  The only proof that I got this is my own blog.  Should I even bother to post this?  I will anyway.  I have to learn not to care what people think about my channeling, don’t I?

There were other, less spectacular things.  My association of the Black Frost with Nazi imagery was borne out tonight, everyone was calling Riley "Teutonic”.  They “neutered” spike.  Then there was the parallel story of the Chumash people and American “genocide” on them. 

Also before I went to run I was playing “Nostradamus” very loud and when I left my door open and went downstairs I could hear it and I wondered if it would bother people. Then when Spike was trying to bite Willow he turned the stereo up really loud so no one in the hall could hear.

So that’s pretty major and I can’t have any doubt that I’m using telepathy here.  And by the way, since Buffy does wind up in a relationship with Spike, spike does go “straight up” because this is the episode where he starts to turn, doesn’t he? 

11:43 PM 4/5/2017 So I did my ritual and I had a lot of synchronicities, but now I’m tired and I’m just going to point out to myself that I need to work to get this done earlier in the evening.  This is actually my work.  The Buffynicity about “straight up” shows me some things about what I’m doing. 

While Moon-Leo trined Sun-Aries and Mars trined Pluto I was doing awesome ritual magic, celebrating my newfound faith in telepathy.  Saturn goes retrograde in a few minutes but I’ll be sleeping.  I still haven’t transcribed my notes, but it’s time for bed.
