The lexigrams of the name of the craft LEXIGRAMS ( Note: presented as plural in Linda Goodman's Star Signs' "Lexigrams" chapter)

LEXIGRAMS

LIES; I LIE; MEGA LIES; LIARS; I AM A LIAR; MEGA LIARS; AXIS; RAMS; RAMS LIE; I AM ME; I AM A GIRL; SEX; LEXIGRAMS ARE LIES; LEXIGRAMS ARE LIARS; GIRLS' SEX; A GIRL IS A LIAR; A GIRL IS A SEX LIAR; GIRLS ARE LEXIGRAMS LIARS...

I had found the lexis LIES/LIE and LIAR/LIARS quite a while ago, but only to post them til now...I don't mean to challenge lexigrams, I just saw what I saw and am sharing with you what I've seen in the word LEXIGRAMS- believe me, I'm confused. Perhaps you could tell me what I've missed? Thanks in advance.

Linda stated that the word druids would always reveal to you the message that was relevant for you to hear, at the time of your lexi spiral.

i would ask yourself why you see these messages in this lexigram, what about it is personal to you...what it is that your higher s-elf must be attempting to communicate to you?

Again the question of negative words has been raised.
quote:
What does it mean if there are more negative words than positive ones in a persons name? Does this mean they are evil or very bad in some way?
No! Such words, especially under 4 letters in length are very common in many names. It all depends on what other words appear to alter things. Also it can mean one hates lies or liars, and not be one themselves.

One (of many) exceptions is the word "LOVE" which seems to appear in only about 7% of full names.

Linda Goodman's own name...Mary Alice Kemery has such things in it.
I AM A REAL LIAR.
I LIE.
MY KARMIC CRIME, I LIE.
MY KARMA.
I AM LAME.
I CRY.

So do you believe that about her?
She was lame before her death. Her Diabetes led to an amputation.
She does not have a "NO" or "NOT" to negate all that. I wonder how she felt about that being on her name? Did she even know it was there?
One can find good and bad things in anyone's name. Is that why she changed her name? Doubtful, as she has I AM GOOD, AND I AM NO GOOD, in her new name.
Because Mary Alice Kemery does not have "NO", the two names do not share it so it cannot be used to negate the negatives in her birth name. And I find it illogical to say that one can use "NO" to negate bad things but not good things. That is a desire for it to be so, not a fact.
So think carefully before assuming the word lie, or any other negative word is about the person. It could reflect them of course, or maybe only what they do not like.
Another example:
A person has MURDER or MURDERED in their name.
Does that mean they will murder or be murdered?
No! Perhaps they scream bloody murder or murder the language. Perhaps they love murder mysteries, or maybe they are a forensics detective or counsel families of murder victims.
Same for words such as RAPE or STEAL.
One could be a rape counselor and the other "gets things for a steal", a "bargain hunter". Or steals bases in baseball.
Too many words change meaning depending on context.
Assume nothing when it comes to words.
Please read this thread for explanation of negative words in names,
and the Zebra rule controversy.

fayte Thanks for adding your lexis about LEXIGRAMS.

Like I said in the heels thread in FFA, I don't need a teacher who has no official qualifications for teaching me anything; what I need is a friend. And I surely don't need an analyst who has no official qualifications for analyzing me. This is getting really, but I mean really, boring.

I brought this up partly because LIE or LIES appear in many lexis and some of them were illustrated by Linda in Star Signs- LIVE A LIE in the lexis of BELIEVE; LIE in the lexis of MIRACLE; LIE in the lexis of BIBLE...also, LIES in MEDICAL SCHOOL; LIES in MEDICAL ASTROLOGY...I just thought it was worth further investigations. Have fun.

hi DforDefiant ~

posting a statement such as the following implies the desire for people here to answer.

quote:
I'm confused. Perhaps you could tell me what I've missed? Thanks in advance.

perhaps you might consider that the next time you ask such a question.

i hope you feel better about things soon.

from Star Signs ~

you will need to achieve a certain state of mind if you want to receive the full benefits of lexigramming. otherwise, you'll just be playing anagrams. you must allow your Higher S-elf to take over thoughts until you reach a dreamlike state, difficult to describe. it begins when a Lexigram stimulates your imagination to produce ideas and images which seem to flow on their own, bringing a steady stream of associated images. this sort of channeling occurs when you fall into a half-conscious, half-dreamlike state of mind...

don't forget that your Lexigram will be as individual as you are. remember i told you that Lexigrams often reveal as much about the person calculating them as about themselves, in a sort of mutual enlightenment.

Anagrams use all the letters once in the phrase or resulting words.
Lexigrams use any of the letters in the original word, name phrase, etcetera, in each word in the resulting lexigram.
I rarely anagram.
I usually lexigram.

Yes...each lexigram will be different. Unless it is very short like GOD/DOG/OG/GO/DO
GO DOG
GOD GO
DO GOD

etcetera....
and such other shorties, everyone will say something different based on where their thoughts are and what the found words trigger within them.
DfD...as you can see, I saw no lies mixed with Girls or sex in mine.
That was not what the words I found triggered for me, as they did for you.
Mine concerned other things and lies of rulers, and so forth.
We each say something different by what jumps out at us. It may or may not reflect our mind state but it can.
Do you understand what I am saying here?
Girl could have been associated with good things like....

A SAGE GIRL I AM.
I AM A GIRL.
I AM A SAGE REGAL GIRL!
A GIRL IS A GEM!
I AM A REAL GEM!
I AM A REAL SAGE GIRL GEM!
AS GIRLS ARE REAL GEMS, I AM A GIRL, I AM A REAL GEM!

I think that is what salome meant.

fayte,

You're cool. When I talked about being opposed to anyone perceiving themselves as teachers or analysts here which I do not need (I've got my own already, thanks), I was not referring to you. So you're fine.

Well I say f*** that, even a simple question can be interpreted (I wonder what's next- my dream interpretations? Just joking! I have others to help for that matter) as whatever to-be-corrected or to-be-refined motives, notions or unconscious confusion or conflicts. Read this: i am fed up. Not in caps. I'm sick of this pointless game.

Now back to lexigrams! And the mystery of LIE/S in the lexigrams in some really positive words! Let's get back to the business!

...We each say something different by what jumps out at us...

you explained my notion very well Fayte...thanks for finding something relevant in my words...it's very relevant to me as well.

here are some lines about lexigrams in Star Signs...

the hidden glory of every story
shines forth in words, words, words!
the miracle of the Easter gladness
overcoming death's morbid sadness
is told in words words words!

words have wings, like birds
to fly through the sky of the mind

be ye aS wiSe aS a Serpent
yet aS harmleSS aS a dove...

words...those mysterious sribbles on a page
holding the wisdom of every age
the experience and teaching of every sage

oh! the beautiful rhyming of the proper timing of words!

powerful words, that ring with truth
words that sing, forsooth!

yes, words that ring and words that sing
words of spring and every good thing...like kitties

LG says further...

lexigrams do churn up the adrenaline irresistably, and it's difficult to pull in the reins, once the race to solve the riddles of yourself and the mysteries of the Universe has exploded through the starting gate of the Mind.

lie

quote:
personally, i've found the word "lie" to be the most meaningful exposure of truth i've discovered in Lexigrams, and i know that sounds like a contradiction, the ultimate non-sequitur. what you must understand, however, is that the word lie possesses multi-layered meanings...

for instance, anything you can't see with physical vision -- or can't prove with visible evidence -- is considered by some people to be a lie, if you insist to them it's there and they can't see it. after whatever it might be finally manifests into matter or beingness, whether it's a missing child or any other miracle, the "lie" the beliver was accused of suddenly....Abracadabra!...becomes the truth. the "liar" becomes a prophet...

as for BELIEVE lexigramming the word LIVE, some of you may be wondering why the word LIVE itself is EVIL spelled backward. lots of people have noticed that. fewer have noticed also that EVIL is VILE. it's nothing to be concerned about; in fact, it's something to be ELATED about, when it's been carefully CONTEMPLATED -- perhaps the most important truth revealed by Lexigrams. Because...there's another word in LIVE besides EVIL and VILE and that word is, again, as we just saw, LIE. this is a perfect example of how you must train your mind to work with Lexigrams. what does it really mean when you penetrate the word live and find the words "evil" and "vile" and "lie" within it?

it means that humans, hypnotized by false religious doctrines and dogmas, believe that to live one must know the vile experiences of evil. that evil is an absolute necessity to the process of living. but there sits that three-letter word, telling you that this is a LIE. to live need not involve evil. humans only believe that it does. (when one believes a falsehood, "believe" is not such a positive word, is it? another reason the word druids seeded the word lie into it.)

Good thread (oops, string) all.
salome, you brought up exactly what I thought about when I read the title of this topic. And, of course, you've inspired me to read Star Signs ... again.
Anyway, I can't say it better than Linda did herself. I've found the word LIE (or its derivatives) in many words and its meaning seems to fit the word itself each time, though perhaps it isn't always the same meaning. That does't make much sense as I reread it but it makese sense to me when I'm Lexigramming, so there.

Lie does not always mean an untruth.

Lie can be very benign.
Some rethinking of what one thinks of the word
"lie" or "lies" is perhaps in order?
Like the word "present".
PRESENT:
Definitions of present

1. [adj] - (grammar) a verb tense or other construction referring to events or states that exist at the moment

2. [adj] - spatial sense

3. [n] - the period of time that is happening now

4. [n] - something presented as a gift

5. [n] - a verb tense that expresses actions or states at the time of speaking

6. [v] - introduce

7. [v] - hand over formally

8. [v] - formally present a debutante, a representative of a country, etc.

9. [v] - bring forward and present to the mind

Quotes - Example use of the word present
1. his tie was a present from his wife

2. any continuous stretch of time including the moment of speech

3. that is enough for the present

4. he lives in the present with no thought of tomorrow

5. We presented the arguments to him

6. We cannot represent this knowledge to our formal reason

7. This poses an interesting question

8. being or existing in a specified place

9. the murderer is present in this room

10. present at the wedding

11. present at the creation
present Synonyms

pose

submit

lay out

represent

nowadays

present tense

Ambiguity of meanings in many words abound! Do not assume only one meaning.

Now for more on "LIE".
1. [v] be located or situated somewhere; occupy a certain position.

2. [v] be lying, be prostrate; be in a horizontal position; "The sick man lay in bed all day"; "the books are lying on the shelf".
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
4. [v] be and remain in a particular state or condition; "LIE dormant".

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

7. [v] assume a reclining position; "LIE down on the bed until you feel better".

8. [v] have a place in relation to something else: "The fate of Bosnia LIES in the hands of the West"; "The responsibility rests with the Allies".

9. [v] assume a resting position, as on a flat surface.
