@Plut0nian2here's a novel for you:
i hate when i lose everything i write after it's been a lot, it's usually enough for me to just not bother with something anymore unless it feels important and even then i need to walk away for a bit usually
feel free to just ask things if you think of them even if it's out of context
your english is easy to understand so far, and i wouldnt have noticed tbh even if you phrased things wrong
as long as you can kind of get the idea i imagine i could figure it out i'm pretty good at that
language is more about expressing points then getting all the words right anyway so it's cool if youre unsure of something to just try
i'm always right when i feel something coming off of someone
easier when someone is in a room with me but they don't have to be
i dont just say it and insist, i usually dont say it i just react to it and then they'll tell me if something is wrong
people have told me i have a knack for getting in touch with them after theyve dreamt of me or thought about me
just how things are
i wouldnt assume something if i wasnt told it, but people tell me it often
i test it
i've learned to play with it and so on to some extent
it wouldnt really be fair or make any sense to assume i knew without feedback from the other person in some way
yeah i can be in the middle of having a fight with someone and then just be over it... find it all funny instead
this either works in my favor or it ****** the other person off and then i'll get annoyed again if they insist on continuing a fight then i will
my fiancee's gotten me to shut up while im ****** with sex before, that works too
or just have a fair point i'll shut up for that too
and even if im really sad about something i cant usually figure out a reason why it needs to matter if i can be happy otherwise and not really bother with it because life keeps going anyway
i can be very cold though, and detached when i need to be
i just will feel completely numb when things are bad
so i either get over things quickly in the sense where i'll move on and things are cool or all of it's dead to me and i dont give a **** either way the result is im over it
i suppose it does depend on how someone defines spirituality, but doesnt everything depend on the filter you see it through?
you really want the long story?
odd experiences my whole life with lucid dreams out of body experiences etc and so on i cant really remember it ever starting
deja vu during a vacation where i got drunk and was able to wander around a city id been in a couple days and not get lost becahse it felt like home when i was 18
all of this autowriting on my 22nd birthday that ended up starting to play out
when it happened i figured it was just the pcp but years later some of it ended up happening
and i met this woman (not my fiancee) i wrote about meeting and i learned a few things from her and she did this ritual i told her not to do
she wanted to explore the connection between us
and at the time i didn't really take her seriously because in spite of all of my experiences i'm not the sort of person who just accepts things
so i made a lot of jokes about stopping her and then one night i thought about telling her not to again then figured there was no point and it would just be weird
i was out having a cigarette, phone in my hand, and just... i started to text her some **** about how it was a bad idea while hoping her fiance wouldnt notice we were talking and let her look at her phone
and i got halfway through the text then figured **** it because it seemed stupid to just say it out of nowhere
we didnt talk that night and i didnt think about it
that night i dreamt i was on a beach with a turtle and the tide was coming in everything just stretched out forever in all directions while the sun set
and it was vivid, one of those dreams i could feel
i told her about it the next day, he was at work, she told me she did the ritual the night before
told me she remembered meeting me in another life and the connection we shared etc
i told her i didnt remember anything
i dreamt about the beach again that night, there was some sort of small stringed instrument in the sand with a peacock carved into it and the tide was coming in again but this time it was a little harsher, got a little closer to where i was
the next night i dreamt about the beach again
there was a tiger standing behind me, it wasnt aggressive it just watched when the tide swept me away
after that memories started, they were able to be dated and so on... lot of odd things with it doesnt matter
a few months into that i had a dream
the first thing that was odd about it was the deer
she taught me how to open my third eye (i had managed to do that on one of my birthdays, 25th) and one of the things that started when that happened was odd dreams about deer (does, stags, fawns) and experiences with them coming over to me (im from the city, but i dont live there and on/off left for a while before leaving altogether... more rural area now and then)
anyway there was a deer in this dream (this was around my 26th birthday, my birthday is weird every so often or the time around it) and i followed it to a temple covered in vines
inside it looked like there was a party going on frozen in time, more vines covering everything
statues made of petrified wood of women dancing with satyrs and centaurs playing instruments and drinking etc
and i woke up found it strange and i told her about it
she told me it was a calling dream said it was dionysus, i told her i knew fuckall about him other than alcohol she told me how to answer a calling dream and said to think about it
but i was drunk and high when she told me, so i didnt think about it
i just went and did it because the dream was weird and i wanted to see what would happen because idk i couldnt think of a reason not to and i was curious and didnt think that much before i did it other than i wanted to see
it was sort of like when i made napalm as a kid because i just wanted to see what lighting it on fire would look like
anywaythat resulted in a few dreams about accepting that i can only go forward on my path and that it's laid out for me or going crazy instead and then just life happening
things with that woman ended as strangely as they began and life went on but i kept digging where i could with the occult which wasnt much of anywhere really at the time
other than divination (i bought tarot cards because of a dream and then walking into a store and them being on display the same way they were in the dream so i learned them) and meditation which became hard after the intensity of everything she opened up
life just kind of went on i started learning mindfulness to deal with depression and dug deeper into different kinds of meditation to deal with pain because my health went to ****
then i met this other woman who had weird dreams that lined up with things from the memories i had
we spoke about them, she did all of this research
interpreted dreams for me etc and so on (she was really amazing and i should probably hit her up because i havent seen her since right after i got clean and i promised her i would) and she placed all the memories within this really specific time frame, we'd speak about patterns with the dreams and so on etc
i didnt really know what i was doing or how to proceed so i started learning astrology since that first woman i mentioned had been into it and i figured maybe i could meet another one who knew some of what i was talking about if i could actually offer something to a conversation aside from
"look at my chart please"
and then i started meeting people who were deeper into the occult who taught me things, sent me books (i still have a ton i need to go through) shared their experiences etc
and that was all going cool until i met these people i had some pretty ****** up memories about from that ritual (i use the word "memories" i dont actually define them as anything other than experiences of some sort)
and they started telling me some crazy things they believed about me based on their experiences and beliefs
so now that's all a weird mess i have to devote some of my life into every day 😂 while i proceed with things that are more interesting
that's the short version of the long story, i think i got most of it in there
i prefer sincere interactions too, seems like a waste of time otherwise and i'd rather not
i guess i dont mind insincerity if someone is otherwise entertaining though, but it depends on my mood and it isnt preferable
no one ever gets my age right, people significantly younger than me usually think we're the same age and people my age and older always treat me like i'm younger
it's odd, but i'd be lying if i said it wasnt convenient sometimes
and yeah, mutual depth in feelings like you said
sometimes there's an initial connection that's undeniable, but people who say that are usually just faking it
i find that more uncomfortable than anything but funny because i'd be a lot easier if they just said they wanted to have sex with me because they find me attractive instead of pretending to have feelings because i really dont need all that **** necessarily
i hate being bored, i don't hate many things more than i hate being bored
i've always figured everyone is sort of shallow and it's no big deal since that's only one quality anyway
it can be sad, but i mean... there's worse stuff
with lying i feel like, everyone lies on some level or misleads somehow it's a matter of how and when they do it and what comes with it that matters and even then i can move on and that one thing isnt going to affect how i see a person entirely
also i figure people change so who they are right now wont be who they might be in a year because life can change people quickly so it wouldnt be fair to lose respect for them based on one thing that doesnt even need to matter for very long
if i like them otherwise it's no big deal
i can handle most flaws
it is interesting isnt it? how disconnected people are from the reality of how connected everything and everyone is to each other
that's one of the first things i felt when i opened my 3rd eye, still havent been able to unfeel it
i think words can be just as loud as actions, it all has weight
i think a lot of people would stay, my mother took care of both my grandparents out of a sense of obligation
and i've seen a lot of people have a similar mindset as you
as for abuse in my childhood that's it's own long story it wasnt just my parents who were abusive and it was every kind of abuse (physical, emotional, verbal, sexaual...)
i had a feeling your mother was abusive on some level based on what you said just before about your father rather than her
the sun square saturn in my chart is pretty accurate, i'm the one my father doesnt like and he's open about it
me being my mother's favorite was partially just personality and a lot due to weird spiritual experiences she had while pregnant with me
the experiences were largely dreams involving my father's mother who died right around when my mother found out she was having me
in the dreams my grandmother told my mother everything would be fine and so on (this was significant to my mother because she had a miscarriage less than a year before she had me, i was high risk, she almost died after, and several of my aunts on my dad's side were pregnant at the same time miscarriages and one of them had a baby who died not long after... my mother was the only one who had the dreams...so her pregnancy with me was different plus almost dying afterwards)
so there was that too
with the emotionally weak thing... my brothers both tend to cave when things aren't good and they both just sort of flail around not getting things done
my younger one can be effective, but usually only when things are good
with deaths or hard decisions or when my mother in particular has wanted an emotional dumping ground there's me
she finds them both "too hysterical" and difficult to rely on when something is going on, and when my brother's have issues that's also on me
when my older brother had issues with his daughter's mother i had to step in and put a whole bunch of **** together for him and help him get sole custody
when my younger brother and his girlfriend were breaking up my fiancee and i spent a while at his place helping him clean and get through it etc
when left to their own devices it's generally just sort of sad
my younger brother is a sag sun/venus, leo moon, capricorn mercury, gemini mars (retrograde) no idea of his rising sign
and my older brother is a libra sun/venus/mercury, aquarius ascendant, sag moon, leo mars
it isnt really fair necessarily because i cant quite rely on any of them like that, but i dont really care in the sense that i wouldnt want to and prefer to avoid them anyway
i know what you mean about symptoms yeah... it's amazing how bad you can feel without actually dying and there not being major damage
chronic things tend to be more painful but less damaging funny enough
i'm sorry to hear youre going through that, i know how debilitating that kind of thing can be
sun trine neptune puts a person in touch with that neptunian energy easily
to see how someone deals with the results of a malefic aspect it can help to look at whether or not the affected planet also has an easy aspect because the person will always favor the easier energy and it can become a crutch
moon with north node is a vedic indicator for addiction because rahu (north node) is seen as a driving force that can seek to devour what it sets its sights on
when you see it in conjunction with the moon it can create a need for emotional intensity (in vedic i'm a pisces moon btw, revati nakshatra) and finding ways to fill the void a lack of intensity can cause
in that way moon with north node creates addiction and other higher risk behaviors
that run in with my dealers was definitely just a coincidence, they lived around the same neighborhood and were driving past a smoke shop i was coming out of from a direction i didnt come from and wasnt heading towards
i do tend to just get things exactly when i need them, though typically i mostly get free drugs and things like that
still when everything is going to hell i usually end up in a place where im alright somehow when the situation falls apart completely
addiction is a lot more complicated than just choices, it very easily becomes something else entirely and the odds are really stacked against people quitting
life is ultimately much easier and requires much less strength being clean from heroin than it did when i was on heroin
because while i was on it, very often it took a lot just to sort of exist
it's definitely not the sort of thing you can understand from the outside looking in
i used other opiates for 15 years without physical addiction being a thing, and then heroin changed that
my views on drug addiction changed from the experience and from having been around so many addicts
it's not really about who's strong and who's weak ultimately, everyone's got their places where they fall short you know? people are just people, addicts are no different
but i understand that outside looking in things can seem so different
