Song of the week: Sara Bareilles, Brave

History of Astrology, the Sumerians

Western astrology can be traced back to the Middle East: 4000 B.C.E - 125 B.C.E. A region known as Mesopotamia, consisted of Babylonia and Assyria. The  Sumerian  ancient settlers studied the sky. In doing so, the Sumerians noticed a connection between the heavenly cycles, plant and food growth. The Sumerians placed importance on three deities: Sin the moon god, Shamash the sun goddess, and Ishtar the goddess of Fertility.  Early astrologers were religious priests governmental leaders. In order to study the movements of the stars and planets, the Sumerians built  large observatories, known as Ziggurats. The famous Tower of Babel is sometimes described as a Ziggerat.  The study of the Sun , Moon , and Star( s) have been around before mankind's earliest written records. Calendars were also developed for marking the measuring and passage of time.  In some ancient societies, astrology was mixed with religion and these astrologers were ac...

Seductive Dark Side, poem

Let my lips be the touch you crave, Let my soul be your mission to break. On the dark side, On the inside, And on the outside, I scream your name. Let my heart be the tune you dance to, Let my voice be the song of life you cry to. On the outside, On the inside, And on the dark side, I scream your name. Let my body be the stone that guides you, Let my hips be the glass that feeds you. On the dark side, On the inside, And on the outside, I scream your name. Da da da dooom, Da da da dooom, Da da da dooom,  Da da da dooom.  © Tiffany Desiree, 2015.

Constellations: Sun, Moon & Rising Signs

In astrology, your personality is defined by your Sun sign , consciousness . The  Moon Sign  helps define our emotional development, or express the unconscious side of our personality. This is where we retreat for comfort, childhood memories, and peace. This can also be the place where anger, hate, jealousy and fear may be found.Your Rising Sign , otherwise known as an Ascendant, is the Zodiac Sign that was rising on the eastern horizon at the moment of being born.  My Sun Sign is Pisces , Moon in Scorpio and Capricorn  Rising. All signs of the earth element and the water element are introverted: Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, Cancer, Scorpio, Pisces.                                                             Sun in Pisces  Look deep into the eyes of a Pisces, and you will see a reflection of all that...

The Majestic Seed of Silence, poem

Cowards have a tendency to flock, cluck and pluck for their simple pleasure, I am an eagle who can spread it's wings, without the need to be seen, An eagle with a calling so far beyond reach, to the heathens who pluck at my feet. Cowards have the audacity to gang-bang, to proclaim their weak-ass-ness to the rest of their team, I am an eagle who can speak on my own two feet, An eagle who can climb the highest mountain with one wing, if I so please.  Cowards have simplistic personalities, winning to them is taking a piece of cookie from a child, I am an eagle who can kill a bear without fear of being defeated, An eagle who can fly beyond the galaxy to a place no one has ever seen. Cowards are like a disease searching for acceptance, reassurance and rewards, As an eagle, I come and go like a 13 th century blizzard and will still be remembered. Cowards have tendencies that give them the audacity to feed on simplistic personalities, which they embody....

Song of the week: Gooey, by Glass Animals

Alright, come close Let me show you everything I know The jungle slang Spinning 'round my head and I stare While my naked fool Fresh out of an icky gooey womb A woozy youth Dopes upon her silky smooth perfume

Ahh, hasta que tu vuelvas (An excerpt from 'Nature, Sex & Culture, a Tree of Discombobulated Thoughts')

If one could dream, what would the dreamer say? A fragile soul, So small and out of place. Quiet, beautiful and thin.  Can write a thousand sonnets by blowing in the wind, Silently. This beautiful being has the tendency to drift to far places, reach the highest mountains and achieve the unthinkable.  But in silence, this gracious soul can sing a million tunes. If the tunes shall voyage, they will whisper “ ahh, hasta que tu vuelvas.”  Yes, until you’re back again. In the arms of the wind, kissing the breeze, while making love to the dreamers – dream. Blushes continuously bloom, Your stems are your greatest armor as the soil touches your soul, making you whole and live again. May the dreamer – dream away. You're so  fragile, but as old as the earths first tune. How can you not dream bearing the heart of the oldest tree? © Tiffany Desiree, 2015.

13 Signs You're A Classic INFJ

1. You're always in search of a deeper meaning. At work, in relationships, with friends, and interactions with strangers you’re continually looking at life and situations in an obscure way to discover what’s beyond the surface. 2. Although people have an easy time connecting with you sometimes you can be a difficult person to really know. You value your privacy and often feel like you can only be your “true self” around those closest to you. 3. You're a highly empathetic and sensitive person with an innate ability to understand what people are going through. Your care and concern for others is always genuine and you feel deeply for others. 4. You find it easy to connect with others and exhibit both introvert and extrovert qualities. You love meeting and interacting with other people and at times can be the life of the party but eventually, you have to go home and recharge. 5. Even beyond high school or college you enjoy lea...
