Modern Flower

People used to send flowers to convey messages, using a rubric called the Flower Code or Language of Flowers. They would often indicate on the attached notes that a bouquet contained a coded flower message, so as not to disrupt other people sending flowers for other reasons, which seems wise. Here is a modernized version developed to convey meanings that might be intrinsic to flowers at this time. One could call it a Modern Flower language, and indicate it as such or as a modern or updated flower code on a bouquet’s note. It may be expanded later.

Anemone – a friend
Baby’s Breath – immaturity, something to learn
Calla Lily – grace
Carnation – life balance
Chrysanthemum – “are you going to be okay?”
Cosmos – harmless, good intentions
Daffodil – warning about a friend or acquaintance
Daisy – “is it right?”, wondering about a match
Delphinium – career
Day Lily – things that override career
Foxglove – fancy
Gerbera Daisy – safety, shelter
Hydrangea – goodness, hoping goodness is preferred
Impatiens – waiting, envy, wanting to be nice
Iris – elegance, something right
Lavender – friction (of all kinds)
Lilac – “am I going to be okay?”
Marigold – charming, kindness
Orchid – perfection, “you don’t know me”
Peony – precious, romance
Petunia – something to say
Poppy – fun time, “will your activities get in the way?”
Rose – glory, love
Snapdragon – “don’t be mean”
Spider Chrysanthemum – “you’re okay”, “you’re mean”
Stephanotis – pleasure
Sunflower – arrogance, impressed
Sweet pea – higher power
Tiger Lily – not taking things seriously
Tulip – funny, masculinity

Eclipses

Eclipses are not normal. Stop thinking that they are normal just because eclipses consist of seemingly normal components. All my esoteric research contradicts this. Solar eclipses are most especially abnormal, to the point that if nature seems to fear them, it’s for a reason.

Animals don’t like eclipses, they say. It’s hard to explain why, but there’s just this tiny edge within nature of not knowing for sure if things are going to get back to normal. That might explain some of it. Things have to get back to normal. People used to avoid solar eclipses, which was apparently wise and clever. It’s not always a good idea to override prevailing ideas that generation after generation chose to keep. Wisdom happens again and again by tendency.

What nature also seems to understand on some level is that certain people must absolutely not look at a solar eclipse, and in fact it’s usually fairly easy to avoid doing so.

It is still safe to look at a solar eclipse using inventions that reveal it in shadow or even at its reflection in water, but don’t use those glasses they sell and don’t look directly at it.

Possible correction: Update on the Satya/Krita

You and I may have often read (even here) that the term Satya Yuga is interchangeable with the term Krita Yuga, but I’ve recently received a report that seems to define them a little more exactly. The term Satya Yuga may throughout time refer to whatever time is better than the current time (especially in the future) or the best of times, which in a more absolute sense would be the Krita Yuga. That is, during any point in time, Satya Yuga could mean a better period of time, but Krita Yuga always refers to the best yuga. Each Yuga is subdivided into smaller sections that are named after the longer yugas as well, so for example there’s a Kali yuga of the Kali Yuga (characterized as being very nice to avoid) and a Kali yuga of the Krita Yuga (characterized as a very fortunate time, but not the best the Krita Yuga has to offer).

In an Easter Egg page on this site, I describe time as a type of yuga “machine” that must be hoisted into its proper position in a certain sense after it has recently bottomed out to its lowest level, and it seems that the machine is designed to be raised or repositioned in this way with dharma, a type of right behavior. We, some of the people on Earth, have been trying to do this, and it seems we’re on the way up, but have yet to leave the Kali Yuga in terms of position, although we were scheduled somehow to be in the Krita by 2018, and technically Satya Yuga and Krita Yuga should already be usable as interchangeable terms, so we are late. We will forseeably be able to experience some taste of the other yugas on our way up.

The Hidden Myth of our Solar System

The asteroid we call Ceres has a tale to tell. I will relate it here. Ceres was once the center of its own planet, a very long time ago, and that planet was assembling an atmosphere. It had even started, in its own way, thinking of life.

Mercury was an enormous comet back then, and its course was bringing it into our Solar System and close to the Sun. It swiped the planet that became Ceres, and set it off its orbit. From there the planet hurtled toward Earth. Mars remembers seeing this and thinking about how planets sometimes dream of life. The Planet Ceres and Earth crashed, and many things happened at this time. Part of that lost planet or perhaps a piece of the comet became the Moon, possibly with parts of Earth. The atmosphere peeled off Planet Ceres and transferred to Earth. Several planets changed orbit. Bits of Earth and Planet Ceres went flying and became the asteroid belt, Saturn’s rings, and possibly multiple other moons.

Our Earth was one of the planets that changed orbit, and neither it nor Ceres, the other planet’s core, were ever entirely round again. And interestingly, the roundest photographs of Earth do appear to be composites. This is why many people consulting their mystical sense or intuition may sometimes start to believe the Earth to be flat, since the Earth has difficulty conveying the actual situation of being a nearly-round lozenge shape; to call it a sphere is approximate. In fact, though, the atmospheric components from Planet Ceres and the lozenge features of Earth’s current shape, which help hold its crust in a more stable position than a perfect sphere could do (think of wrapping both a basketball and a football in plastic wrap, and you might see for yourself how this works rather simply), are both key factors that nurture complex life here.

Mercury later became the first planet.

The Devil

In the Age of Aquarius, the proper image for the Devil (Satan) is one of Satan tied to the stake, unable to escape, burning. Yes, he is gagged. This in contrast to the Age of Pisces imagery of Satan with a top hat, Satan waiting at crossroads, Satan owning things, the Devil on a pedestal or having leashes with people at the other ends of them.

The Devil/Satan was originally like a reminder in an equation or calculation about the way dharma declined as the Kali Yuga decayed into lower and lower states. “Satan” means God’s opposition, which is not a dharmic concept. “Devil” is an early English portmanteau (they’re in fashion sometimes) of “deva” and “evil”, referring specifically to Agni and that deva’s tendency to take everything (consuming it in fire). These are not power concepts for the Age of Aquarius and the Satya Yuga.

Reject evil, embrace dharma. It’s time.

Existentialism

It’s a popular idea these days that each of us must decide for ourselves what’s important, what things mean, etc. One example that’s often cited is the meaning of life, and the claim that it is especially virtuous to ascribe a creative meaning to your own, as if it has no intrinsic meaning otherwise. Another example is that you can decide your own destiny, or which romantic partner is the right person for you as if you can decide someone else’s characteristics. This isn’t really how myths work, though. It doesn’t actually even hold up to the basic scrutiny of reality.

In fact, this idea of deciding so much for yourself about that which actually has objective factors involved is a hallmark of a philosophy called existentialism, which is essentially a philosophy built around coping strategies. One idea behind it is that some points in time are actually so mundane that you really have to use your imagination to get through them.

Conversely, in myths a person is often born for a purpose, a community exists for a purpose, people are born to come together and marry, destiny strikes like lightning. Many people throughout history have seen life this way, and it can evoke a feeling of partnership with larger forces and the mystical.
