That tends to happen because out of those 8 kids, maybe only 1 will survive. The U.S. was like this not too long ago--people had 5 to 8 children, because none or only a few would survive. Now, there's no need to do this because of our healthcare system and modern medicine will ensure the child...

Did you forget that the U.S. has a natal chart and was timed on purpose? Pythia uses the Gemini rising of the U.S. chart ;) You don't have to, and no one is forcing you to. It was probably a mistake mentioning it because I know many of you are perfectionists--knowing this just adds more layers...

Isn't Sag a new Moon? Try to avoid it the new moon. New Moons tend to be malefic due to the Sun's obscuration and combustion of the Moon. If you want to try to time it down to the hour, try having a fixed sign for the ASC or MC. Venus and Jupiter on either angle.

I find the sterilization thing very hard to believe. You know how hard it is for women to get a tubal ligation, aka " their tubes tied," so they can't have babies anymore? It's an uphill battle having to fight doctors for it. Women spend a lot of money on birth control ,or other contraceptive...

The good thing about the internet is that you don't have to deal with the industry. You can write and produce your own songs in the comfort of your home. You can also sell them as you'd like. Artists are starting to do it this way.

About the healthcare thing... It's been estimated that only paying a few dollars (~$10) out of your paycheck a month in taxes is enough to sustain everyone. Americans not only pay higher costs, as in spend a big portion of their paycheck being taken out by healthcare payments, but on top of...

This is an ongoing argument...Ever since astrology began.. I mean, there's arguments to be had for both systems. Ancient babylonians/chaldeans used a sidereal system. Ancient Greeks used the tropical system. Use whatever is comfortable for you. Today, Western astrology is based off seasons...

Solve these issues and you will see a skyrocket in births! :mrgreen: 1) Astronomical cost of living. Meaning everything is expensive you cannot afford anything. If you work for 10 hours a day, and make a certain amount, rent, and other taxes, will take off most of your hard earned money. How...

here's the chart of the first vaccine: On the plus side a very late rising means the vaccine was created too late. Many people show skepticism and dislike it. It's a night chart, so the Moon around the midheaven/highest most visible point in the sky shows how public the event is (as opposed...

I have charts for pets! You can even make charts for projects, or beginnings. The sky is the limit.

From my understanding, gems,minerals, stones, etc. can all carry and charge energy. While I understand energy needs to be raised and programmed, it seems like certain shapes have their own intrinsic natures, such as the cube. Would wearing jewelry be detrimental if the geometry is linked to...

I'm glad you're exercising! Work those muscles and pump that heart :) LMAO this better not be in reference to that thread! :lol: I wouldn't be surprised if porn website trafficked has spiked. I bet people are scared to go out and meet new people. When Doom came out, it got overshadowed by...

Hopefully this ends soon.

What have you guys been up to?

Saturn rules structure and rules, so its more creative and positive manifestation is the creation of new technological infrastructure (Aquarius). Society has moved to online (to work from home) and universities have begun online classes/seminars out of necessity, and healthcare is being pushed...

Think of the planets, signs, and major aspects as the main dish. The minor ones (and other things) are like the spices to the main dish. Find the major interpretive values first, then you can start doing the minor fancy things to create a coherent reading. They are minor because they are weaker...

Good for her, she is a credible and talented astrologer who has years of experience. I hope you find much success in your astrological endeavors. I am certain you're well on your way with your preferred house system.

Lydia, Keep in mind, your word is "i." What you feel is tried and true, and what works for you. Your opinion matters. I have talked to many professional astrologers before and have gathered opinions, and usually they think their own system of interpretation is superior than anyone else...

It depends on your chart as usual. If Saturn has been generally a good influence to you (as good as a malefic can be), then expect the likely outcome. If Saturn has always been something to kick your a$$, then start preparing. When Saturn conjunct my chart ruler, nothing "bad" really happened...

Loki88, Thanks for sharing. I don't have enough time to read the entire website, but it seems like an eclectic blend of various philosophies merged into one. I'll be reading it soon to get a closer look.

This is everyone. If people don't have jobs, then they cant pay their bills or find money for food and other things such as utilities. People are forced to work and to be out there This is unfortunate, but it is the reality many people have to face. Many people are being laid off from their...

He works extremely hard. Thanks for sharing your experience. :)

Your best bet would be to email programmers of astrology software if they have this functionality. There's a few out there that's popular that may have the manpower to be able to support you. If not, then you're going to have to go through the inconvenient method: just download an ephemeris...

Stormblood, Why do you think it's irrelevant? You brought up his name and accused his name as destructive, so of course it's relevant to the discussion. While his works may have been altered and destroyed, he was still an influential figure in naturalist philosophy. All I wanted was to be more...

To stay away from snakes. Venom can be dangerous and deadly.

Amazing job! Thank you.

I write respectfully and kindly in addressing your post, to explore the topic further. Quote from Mageson: HP Mageson writes about Porphyry here too: https://www.ancient-forums.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=21151 HP Zevios mentions him briefly here...

I just wanted to say it is very brave for you to open up to us about your issues and how you're coping with it. You're a very strong person and I want to say it's very admirable that you're continuing to fight every day. Being a victim of violence (rape) can be life changing, for the negative...

The exaltations vary from author to author. You'll have authors go all over the place stating Neptune is exalted in Leo, Uranus is exalted in Taurus, Pluto is exalted in Aries or Pisces, etc. There really is no consensus, because 1) they are very recent discoveries and 2) because it's like...

Exaltations are extremely ancient, possibly originating from Mesopotamia, so we don't really know how they came to be. What we do have are Greek works that found a way to explain it rationally and scientific by using weather and Aristotelian physics/cosmology, as I gave a few examples in my post...

Make it fun and relaxing, and you'll have an easier time doing it everyday. 8-)

If 108 is too much for you try 54, or even 40. :) Even 20 is good. Just work up to it, which will take a while.

Pineal issues seem to be extremely rare. But if they had to have it removed, then the reason is usually it turned cancerous. Even if it was benign, brain tumors can press on other parts of the brain which can cause issues. It is extremely unfortunate for this to happen. Omg the thought of it...

Eric13, thank you for taking time out of your day for answering. :) I understand. As for why aren't they treated in natal, or transits--why not? Many astrologers, including Pythia, applies the concept of a VoC Moon to many charts :twisted: If the concept of a VoC is applicable in mundane...

Point, no one is forcing you to like something. If you find that you disagree with it, or don't gel well with it, then you don't have to to do it or like it. :) I appreciate your open mind: you read about it, you tried it out, and now you want to start a discussion about it. That's great...

OMG. ME. TOO. I went to the bathroom nonstop. This was a particularly vile case of norovirus, which I was wondering where I got it from because I wash my hands relentlessly. It's scary how these things happen all at once. I hope we all get better. x

My reasoning is this: VoC-The Moon makes no more aspects, til it moves on to the next sign. To elaborate: The Moon is the one that carries the events, and carries (some of) the actions of the world as far as its influence goes. So, if the Moon makes one final aspect, it's pushed on its...

I just wanted to say there's no "one way" to practice astrology--imagine how boring the world would be if everyone thought and interpreted the same. Whatever method works, works! :) The most ancient definition of a VoC Moon I can find was a Moon that makes no (Ptolemaic) aspect in the next 30...

Thanks for your answers. I appreciate it Eric and Shael. :D I just wanted to make a discussion. :) I wonder what the reasoning behind it is, that something is unique or unusual. What about the VoC makes this so?

What's your opinion on out of sign aspects? I just wanted to ask, because the concept of a VoC Moon implies that it's ineffective. Many people use it/dont use it, no big deal, I just wanted your opinion. :)

I find micromanaging and overanalyzing people's sex lives to be inherently abrahamic and christian. Sex should not be moralized or micromanaged between two consenting adults.

Well hello there late bloomer! I'm kidding :D You know your life best, so don't let a chart dictate to you that you're doomed or whatever. The person who can make changes is you. :) How do you feel the retrogrades have manifested so far? If you're younger, maybe you haven't seen it play...

It also depends culturally. From what I know, some countries start and train their kids young to do one specific thing for the rest of their lives. Other countries, like the U.S. on average switch careers several times. A lot of people get jobs unrelated to the college degree they obtain...

First: Is this you? :shock: You know it's always frowned upon to post your own personal chart here. And dangerous! :shock: Also, okay, I see your point. I used Moon for rectification: it places the ASC in Aquarius, but in the 2nd degree, which is the 19th minute you were talking about.

Loki, For octaves, some sources say it is Moon and some sources say it is Venus. Which one do you personally agree with the most?

These ideas didn't come from me, but the rationales that form the idea of domiciles and rulerships by the ancient astrologers, which is how we got these concepts and ideas today. Its fun to think about it and to re-work these. I don't mind tinkering around. :lol:

Omg Olive oil is great for the nails! If you get a little container and constantly reapply it on your nails/massaging it on your nails every day, your nails get stronger and your cuticles get neater.

I have started a Mercury square in Aquarius too. I definitely felt it. :!: :!: :!: :!: :!: :!:

Oooh congrats 8-) Meditation does make you more receptive and makes you able to understand things easier, I think HP Mageson wrote that working on the upper chakras helps with intelligence. Headaches and pains always seem to be the side effects of the upper chakra meditations, possibly...

This is what I wanted to start a discussion about. I wonder where Pythia got her information on Mercury's exaltation in Aquarius. It seems like she got it from Astrology books, because many of the webpage's concept references concepts from other authors. Possibly because the view that Mercury...

Bumping this thread I'm curious if you guys have tried the Mannaz for the crown chakra already?

I don't think there's any safety concern over a vague Sun sign, because even the OP isn't sure where their Sun is! If you create a chart on astro.com, with accurate birth information, you can see which sign the Sun is in. It's either in Virgo or Libra, and nothing in between. Either you're a...

The ASC is really early, like 1º0'. A few minutes can change the ASC degree into another sign, and can alter the entire reading. The birth time is rounded, so I doubt this chart is accurate. What do you hope to gain from a reading?

You can cast them anytime, on anyone, but best time is when the Moon or Venus are in good and operative positions (not void, and not in detriment, and in certain signs). And after you've built up your energies. Though if they have a strong aura, or knows witchcraft, then the spell may not work...

Catalincata94 I admire your dedication and inquiry over such subjects. I understand that your situation is difficult, yet you still want to partake in these important and transformative practices. You have my support and encouragement. Good luck! :)

Its manifestations in your life will depend on where it is, and also what the ruler of Sagittarius is going, and its aspects. This is just the preliminary consideration.So it's hard to say what its specific effects are on you, unless we talk in generalities, which may not be 100% accurate. But...

Usthepeople666 has a point. The key is learning how to relax and finding a nice quiet space to relax. It helps to just appreciate the air peacefully and slowly going in and out and feeling the subtleties of your body. Once you got that down, then you got it 8-) It might feel frustrating at...

I was looking for this!! Thanks for the link. This makes total sense. The Namah Shivaya was said to purify the elements according to several gurus, BUT to Mageson it wasn't powerful enough because the true name is probably Satanas which his name has more powerful effects. Sometimes these...

HP. Zevios Metathronos, I understand your point. Modern mainstream thinking and brainwashing, along with critical and gender theory is to thank for this current mode of "oppression" thinking. In universities, students are taught that the world exists in a matrix of oppression, and so people...

Slyscorpion, For the topic on Exaltations and Rulerships, it comes from the seasons. It's also because the ruler of the sign interacts nicely with the exaltation planet. Jupiter is exalted in Cancer, because he brings winds and storms, and Cancer is the stormiest part of the year. The...

I think the reason this time is that they genuinely wanted to be here to be part of the community, but they got burnt out. This person showed genuine change and showed that they wanted to get better and started doing better things. I compared their old posts to their new ones from this account...

Reading this thread is shocking. Have you been seeking a counselor and therapist for this? Untreated bipolar tends to get worse over time without treatment. Family and marriage counseling would also be very helpful to navigate this type of relationship. This is going to sound very unpleasant...

By the way when it comes to fluoride, proceed with caution. It's not recommended for children under two years of age to use fluoride because they could swallow too much of it (this can lead to negative side effects). I just want to let you know there's fluoride free toothpastes available.

Teeth is something that will follow you or haunt you for the rest of your life. So dentistry is very important. It can affect their health and quality of life. Teaching them proper brushing and flossing habits now will save them a lot of headache and toothache in the future...

FYI China has had a habit of concealing the actual death counts. They do this by hiding the bodies or just straight up burning/cremating them. So the real numbers are hidden, as usual. https://www.businessinsider.com/china-wuhan-virus-sars-similarity-china-coverup-2020-1

I've seen several circumcisions. It's quite barbaric, and babies feel the pain. The whole numbing agents stuff they go on about doesn't really work--you can see how the babies cry horribly loud and grimace and struggle to escape the pain. The aftercare is just "put some gauze and vaseline on...

The Indra mantra is good at banishing obstacles. You can use it in conjunction with the affirmation.

I think it's a scam, because when I went to their ingredients list of this so called potion, you can see it links to their products, which you have to pay for. So, it's clearly a plug to sell their products. You'll find that a lot of modern spirituality/witchcraft is just materialism and...

So what happens when it comes to cusps, is that any planet conjunct the cusp will color the matters of the house. So if your 9th house cusp has a very tight conjunction with the Sun, then the Sun will strongly color the matters of the 9th house cusp with solar significations. Another thing is...

Theres this new virus coming out. Scientists theorize that it came from animals which mutated to infect humans. They're not sure if it's able to be transmitted humans to other humans. And they don't know how dangerous this virus could be, if its effects only cause cold-like symptoms or something...

Sex might feel weird and uncomfortable the first time, but the more you do it the better and better it gets as you learn your preferences, etc. :) Have fun and make sure to practice safe sex (condoms)!

Slyscorpion, I believe you are on to something :). You're right in that it is logical. Usually we pay the most attention to the Moon, but there are other planets that exist also, and these planets roam around the constellations which are made of stars. These are energies upon energies of each...

Call the hospital you were born at for your medical records. They usually have an archive or record of it. Check your birth certificate, they usually have it there. If not, ask around your relatives if they have it written down. Mom and dad's memory may or may not be reliable, but at least it's...

Unfortunately, when the old forum vanished, a lot of good posts were lost. You have to go spelunking to get them back. Here's a post by Zevios Metathronos in his compilation of mudras. Please give him thanks for writing this post. :)

If you use quadrant based house systems, the IC and MC will be the divisions that create the 4th and 10th houses. They're significant because they're part of the cardinal points in the natal chart, meaning that anything located or associated with it will have an increased amount of significance...

Slyscorpion, thank you for your input. I'm glad you shared your experience with decans. :) Whichever system of decanates that you would like to use is up to you. Whichever makes the most sense to you, or whichever speaks to you the most, is something you should go with. :) The Chaldean...

Summoning a demon implies you're going to be doing this for a working, in which I would avoid doing it at a VoC. Start the working, petition or request at a later date. Large projects I would avoid in a VoC. :idea: The Moon was waxing in Libra and Cancer just days ago, and as I write this...

Harry, here's something interesting. I hope you find it interesting too. In ancient Greece, the ascendant was called the hour marker, horoskopos, or also the helm. The part of the ship that is steered. The planet ruling the ASC is the steersman, where it will guide you through your life (to a...

An explanation that was given to me was to think of them as mountains. When Mars heads to the degree of exaltation, he's getting stronger and stronger until he reaches the degree where he is the strongest. For the opposite, think of them as pits: The Sun heading to his degree of fall, is like a...

I agree. (Without giving too much information) Though, I empathize with a lot of people here. Sometimes it feels hectic trying to gain a sense that you haven't been using your life. It feels like walking in baby steps one step forward and two steps back. It can be frustrating, yet frustration...

I had to comment on this. Your comment was awesome like a mic-drop. Harry, why don't you do them and try to see the effects it has on your body? Maybe that could give you some clues/hints.

Stormblood, The person asked for the meaning of aspects so I gave them a historical context of their usage and how they came to be. They come from ancient optical theory. The aspects were also hinted at by a geometrical relationship of the planets in the Thema Mundi, if people were looking for...

Decans have some significance. They're one of the weakest forms of dignities, think one of the latest layers going from Domiciles->Exaltations->Triplicity-> Bound -> Then finally decans. You'll end up with a lot of rulers if you go by that logic, but if you can find to make it work for you then...

Nakedhill, This person is not originally from an English speaking country. I suspect they are using a translator for words they do not understand. I would be cautious about using advanced language concepts such as metaphors because they might not be picked up by the translator. I appreciate...

I like this method. 8-)

Of course. I was just talking about personality--though the elements can influence the personality quite a bit. When it came to the elements older astrologers focused on temperament/humoralism, which they used the elements and its qualities to help guide the person. Elemental balances or...

I read this forum and I just think how it's almost a miracle that we have this knowledge-- with the help of someone as influential and intelligent as HP Pythia (and the other HPs and many members here who are passionate about these subjects, you included), actually made it spiritually useful and...

Of course. You just have to focus your intent. But the chances of it going wrong are increased because you can get your wires crossed due to the confused picture/name.

Nakedhill, this is a theory I know that elements are elements and there's no way around it. But sometimes, strong planets can make up for it personality wise. Someone with a strong Mercury might come across very mercurial despite being all water signs, or someone with a strong Moon might come...

Shael, since we're talking about vibes, IMO you give off a very sanguine vibe. You're one of the chiller, more easy going people here and ready to help others. 8-)

Open yourself psychically, and you will feel it.

Sun - Saturn is still in opposition. Saturn rules Aquarius, the Sun's detriment. It's just not drawn, because it's symmetrical and assumed. Same logic with the Moon.

Mental illness is difficult. Does Turkey have accessible resources or (non-religious) mental health counselors to help you with your issues? Sometimes therapy helps. What does your treatment plan involve to help you with your depression and autism? Medications by themselves cannot cure it...

Looks good 8-)

When people have no room inside, they do it outside. It's freezing this time of the year, so probably not the best idea :lol: Are there local of public facilities or gyms you can go to? Often times they have studios not in use that you can go to do yoga.

This sounds extremely anal, but technically conjunctions aren't an aspect. Aspect comes from ancient theory of sending/emitting light, or hurling the light rays at a planet. An aspect is like seeing one another so they form a relationship that way, and touching them with their light. A...

I found some aphorisms Natal: When it comes to hair, the rising sign and the planets aspecting it can hint to the color. Mars alone in the first house and or being the closest aspect/strongest aspect to the ascendant might give red hair -Saturn likewise might give the darkest color, black...

I'm very cautious about trying new mantras because there's a lot of corrupt material, this is why I asked. This is from the previous discussion with Stormblood in this thread In the Mahabharata, in the story of the boar, Arjuna in supplication to Shiva for his desires to obtain a mystical...

I'm not from your country. Can you explain the difference in the quality of care for a public VS a private psychiatrist? Satanama is very healing and regenerative. Just chanting AUM in general. It stops the flow of chitta (the mental stream) which helps ready your mind for meditation. Doing...

Its kind of pretentious. There's a lot of corruption in it, with new age meditations and christian names that I wouldn't even dare try. But if you like music and getting into the mood, then try it out. If you want some music, just put on some nature noises, or white noise. Trance (genre)...

Do the poses depicted on the picture. And there are many techniques you can perform that is contained in the URL I posted. The URL is underneath the pictures.

The VoC and Mercury retrograde shouldn't be taken too far like that. They will be fine. I've completed projects on VoC moon, I've purchased items on a VoC moon. They ended up being fine. I've communicated just fine with a Mercury retrograde, I've had all my mail shipped to me just fine during...

Reading OP's statement: What's wrong with meditation while on these drugs? This is a genuine question. Typically drugs are used in conjunction with therapy so that the symptoms are more tolerable and less overwhelming. And therapies will help the person cope much better. Kind of like training...

Catalincata94, Even though it's a lifetime illness, there are people who recover from schizophrenia, and are symptom free or have symptoms that are manageable without medication. I think it's important to talk to a psychiatrist or a therapist about this, where you would like to maintain...

Azorm, I know this might not have 100% in direct relation to your comment, but I just wanted to note something.. Something about the occult and spirituality draws people in who are mentally ill. Maybe it's because they look for a higher power to help rescue them from their illness. Maybe they...

You're not an addict, but also keep in mind you've still taken this drug several times already. I think that needs reflection on your part. And ask youself why did it happen, and what compelled you to do it. Peer pressure? Temptation? etc. I think you need to hang around better people. Terrible...

Sometimes too much meditation in a short amount of time can open up or exacerbate mental or emotional issues, i.e. brings them to the surface.

What is "hill"? Translate hill in your native language, please.

Ayyy, thank you. Very practical and useful. :mrgreen:

This is a great thread. I'm bumping this because of all of the useful information--that and I want to start one too. Anyone want to start a next group experiment for Muñka?

Can you do these? :?: Practice: https://www.doyouyoga.com/a-10-minute-morning-yoga-sequence-for-beginners/

Mukeśa also means cupid, apparently. Possibly due to the association with Śiva's arrow.

What were you formally diagnosed with? And what medication are/were you taking?

A lot of people claim they spotted UFOs but really a lot of the times it's just the government testing out new/secret aircrafts that are advanced enough to not make too much noise and are stealthy. So when they're spotted people don't know what they are, and get freaked out. This is common in...

If I had to say, there's probably some sort of secret way or formula to vibrate Shivaya Namah. This mantra seems to be used a lot and mentioned a lot in all of the old Shiva literature. The claims are more intense, such as eliminating karma, or flat out just stating that it turns the soul into...

The subject of religion is vast with many different contexts, so detachment can mean many things. But in general the buddhist/enemy concept is basically withdrawing from the world, stop craving or wanting things such as sex, or even existence. We don't have to use that word though :D ___...

Aren't there many Shiva sects/groups in India? You can practice freely by praising Shiva and doing yoga.

Stormblood here's a translated story by Wolf-Dieter “Arjuna is the noble archer we know from the “Song of the Lord” (Bhagavad Gita).d During the long drawn-out war between rival kin groups, Arjuna realizes that he must have special magic arrows if the tide of battle is to turn in his favor. In...

Interesting. In my experience, high reps of pranayama promotes helps cleans out the dross. The effects hit me like a brick, so I just toned it/dialed it down. I asked, because having a conceptualization of what dross is will help out a lot in the intent/affirmation. Interestingly enough muñka...

I agree. Sometimes it's too long. I'm starting to come across the same issue. To lessen the load, you don't have to do it all at once. You can split it up in the morning, and the afternoon or evening, if you are able. Do cleaning AOP and kundalini in the morning. Chakra work and hatha yoga at...

Look in the mirror. And look at your parents or relatives hair, since they are older than you. Problem solved. :D Consulting the literature: Saturn and Capricorn are associated with hair, (along with Venus, Mercury, and Virgo). Baldness is associated with Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius. Aries is...

Concerning the Hum mantra. ... Bump!

Thanks for your researching efforts and informing us of this. I find the Sun/solar mantras to be very powerful in both generating heat and energy. To clarify, dross is/are karmic imprints, samskaras, etc. that are in the soul, yes? From what I can see, it seems like it's an encompassing term...

Whether the person may enjoy the day or night time is a little more obscure. I found resources, from Indian astrology from one of my favorite astrologers that may suggest this (this technique isn't mine): Prishthodaya signs are signs that rise... with their read end. They are Aries, Taurus...

Amazing work and effort. Thank you for all of it ;)

Ground yourself. Work on the lower chakras. Earth element. etc.

Back in the day, think back 70-200 years ago, the technology on drug delivery systems wasn't refined, or as well researched as it is today. So they still had to improvise and do best with what they got. If you have asthma, they came up with medicated "cigarettes" which are basically a mixture of...

Ol Argedco Luciftias and Shael mentioned the very positive effects of the Ritual. Question: Also would it be possible the 6th is getting empowered because we're vibrating the names of Thoth?

The issue that happens is that if they settle in your house, bat guano/ urine, etc. can build up and start to accumulate. This becomes a sanitation issue. This can also cause property damage, or structural/integral damage to the house, or can cause it to become unsafe (gnawing at electrical wire...

This will sound alarmist, but bat infestations are a serious issue. They're vectors for diseases. You should check for other parts of your house that are dark and places you don't typically access, like the attic. Or hire a professional/consult about it and tell them you found dead bats.

Here's the FDA's stance on it: https://www.fda.gov/food/food-additives-petitions/questions-and-answers-monosodium-glutamate-msg Based on the current evidence, it is considered generally safe. MSG is found in natural food sources, like tomatoes. Originally MSG was taken advantage of in Japanese...

I apologize to bump the thread with no answers, but I do have more questions. When you mentioned the Greek dark ages, all I could think about was the sea people that ravaged the ancient civilizations at the time, until Ramses III waged successful campaigns against them. Ramses III wrote “They...

I think the OP gets it, no need to pile up on him. It makes for entertaining movies, shows, or TV, but that's about it. Did you know there's a subculture of people trying to jump into different universes or dimensions? Theres entire communities of it. Does it work? Probably not. Is it mental...

How do you feel like it describes you? :)

Ooh thanks for the comprehensive list. You pay close attention to the words of the high priest/esses, and I thank you for your dedication. :) I'm curious about the male/female numbers... Odd is male, and even is female. This also reflects into astrology. I'm wondering if it's applicable into...

Sure, make a different thread :)

Mr. Ghost, skepticism is healthy :) These are all ancient techniques/concepts from thousands of years ago, lost through time and translation. I just found them to be interesting, and an interesting departure from what we're normally used to. However you decide to do astrology is up to you, and...

Also as a correction, several authors vary on Venus. Some say it's hot and moist. Some say it was cool and moist. But later on it's known to be cool and moist. :) No need to feel bad. They're intrinsic natures of the planets, so they just are that way because its who they are. If they are...

It comes from the Greeks. The Greeks had a worldview that the universe was made of the classical elements. It has its own unique history, but I'm interested in the actual result of it. To summarize: Each element was made of qualities which are hotness, coldness, wetness, and dryness...

Also Capricorn's symbol is a goat. With horns. And is a cardinal sign. You bet those horns can compete with Aries. :twisted: These signs, Aries and Capricorn, are called quadrupedal signs (four footed signs), which are animalistic. They aren't known for their social graces, which may make it...

Thanks Stormblood. Last night I did this and experienced the effects quickly and lasted a while, even with such low repetitions. To be general, I'll say it's a good idea I started out with low reps. Are you guys using affirmations with these? It seems like the intent/affirmation is with the...

Thanks for the answer . I feel like 9 is the most compelling argument. 6 is the number of Saturn, but 7 is the manifestation and the second step to 6, correct?

For the visuddhi, what would a good number be for lesser reps? My routine is starting to get a tad long trying to squeeze things in.. The numbers total 108 in HP Pythia's post on visuddhi. 11xchakras+31xAura would total 108 9xchakras+27xAura would total 90 5xchakras+19xAura would total 54...

I'm still contemplating whether s/he's a troll or not. S/he's from the middle east, and their english isn't the best. And in my experience talking to some of them on the web, they have a tendency to go on about things like an internal dialogue, especially if they're not aware of basic web...

You don't want to fully change who you fundamentally are. You are born unique, and you want to be you. Just the best version of yourself. You will constantly evolve for the better if you keep looking forward and advancing. Sometimes it's not just about meditation. Another good and practical...

That's the beginning I'm pretty sure. Plenty of people have written about these, after doing meditations on the psychic senses. Keep on going :)

beareroflightandtrth83, If partnership is what you desire, then abstaining from the path will not solve your issues. It will make you lonelier. Shael made a good point that it's better to find the answer from within yourself and to work towards the goal of having happy and functioning...

Have you asked the workers if it was OK to do stretches?

I found the seller. These are gorgeous to look at, the vintage look adds to the aesthetic and vibe. This will be on my wishlist. Thanks for the recommendations!

It would help if you told us what your situation is and why you're in a hospital.

Yeah, you are being way too tough on him. He's just asking questions, and he came to the realization himself that he's been fed wrong sources. He's being corrected by people without the need to insult him. A little tact and understanding goes a long way. We're just having a discussion :mrgreen:

Fashion is a reflection of societies values, mainstream thoughts, and it's the expression of sexes. It's not useless or superficial. It would be helpful if you read past that sentence about fashion.. because I went into other things.

There's this diet fad going called called "breatharian" where your diet is supposed to become like that of a plant--taking in sunlight and air. https://www.gq.com/story/breatharians-the-people-who-think-air-is-food This is not advisable. LOL

What meaning that have you gotten or learned from this video, and why do you feel that it's significant? I'm just wondering what you are thinking. I would like to understand your perspective. :)

It's different for each society and culture, so it's a very difficult question to answer. In the past men wore high heels, wore wigs, makeup, etc. because it was just the fashion and culture at the time (france, egypt, etc.) and it was considered manly. Today, it's considered feminine to do so...

Venus Orion, thank you for this elevating thread. It made me happy, and I thought it was a lovely idea. In my opinion, one should always show reverence towards the demon/ness of hell for providing us this knowledge.

This seems to be based off lawofone, a publication of a person who channeled an entity that claims to be "Ra." Would it be fair for me to ask for the legitimacy of these teachings? And if the entity is who the entity says they are? The website it's based off of is lawofone(dot)info. The...

Yahoo needs to update the yahoo groups website to be more user friendly. It's very 90's: full of bugs and everything is hard to navigate/find.

It could be due to a number of things. As Ol argedco luciftias mentioned it could be due to the lack of electrolytes. Another is that sometimes an increase of energy during meditation can cause this twitching, because the body is not used to it.

I don't really think you need to do spells for something so mundane and achievable. Just keep practicing and keep trying. Have a friend quiz you on road laws and road signs, etc.

Porn has been here since the beginning of time. From the writings of Aristophanes to John Cleland, etc. Lets not pretend to be shocked now... stuff like this has always been here since humans existed. Some more bold and daring in the past compared to today.

Would anyone happen to know what Munka is in sanskrit? As in written out in Devanagari

In this thread: https://www.ancient-forums.com/viewtopic.php?f=24&t=23341 It raises a point that the mantra Hum is the main mantra of serpent power yoga. It is the mantra for awakening the serpent power, according to his research. Has anyone used this mantra and observed its effects? David...

What do you all think about using mantras that empower multiple chakras at once for efficiency sake? For example, Aum Mani Padme Haum empowers the pineal and throat at the same time. Satanama can empower crown and third eye at the same time. Or do you guys prefer just working on a singular...

Thanks for your input and advice, Syt! :)

Syt, Have you tried the Aum Shivaya Namah mantra?

Thanks for the replies guys. :D

I don't know if this may apply to you, but I think it's a good thing to post in general. This is from Mageson. me quote it for you, He also has other posts in there that might be informative for you.

Is both Jnana and Isis vibrated into the 6th? The J sound is pronounced like Y, so is the letter i in Isis. It's the same sound as Yaum, so I'm assuming it would be vibrated around there, correct? I used to vibrate Isis into the third eye, and 6th, and I would get strong visions and a surge of...

Quick question--where would you vibrate Jnana or Isis to?

I'm grateful for your post. I'll be using mantras to clean also and spend a good amount of time then continuing with meditations. Anyone else have insight ?

So if dirty empowered chakras can wreak havoc in one's lives, what routine is recommended? Would doing the -AUM mantras, and chakra cleaning with AOP suffice for now? Along with the Ritual of course.
