That's why I hangout with my shadow. He's nice, doesn't talk at all but follows me everywhere during the daylight hours. Sheesh.

I see Earth as just being like a human body, and we are but the microbes that habitat on top of it. Just as our body regulates and heals itself, so does the Earth. It may get a fever, or a cold, and fight the disease-causing bacteria, before it returns to its normal state. One day, The Earth will get so sick, maybe it will get struck by a metier and have to fight to recover its normal state before it is fully healed - the strike of the meteor will be akin to an insurmountable fireball and the Earth will strike back with biblical-level tsunami’s to try and fight back and heal itself. In the end, the microbes of humanity will be gone and the Earth will once again create a perfect environment for new microbes to flourish.
One may conclude, that the detached, scientific angle of the above description, concludes that humanity is but a habitat of bacteria that in the end leads to only more bacteria. But the opposite is true because, as each individual knows, there exists a Universe inside their own head: within each microbe, there is desires, thoughts, wishes, strife and anguish. There is movement towards a higher meaning in life and one microbe passes through each stage of their life, along with a certain intuitive knowing that they have experienced life before and will experience life again, once their microbe shell shatters. Therefore, within each microbe upon our own body, there exists is a soul and Universe within each mass the size of a needle point on our skin.
And to think humans are still in denial about the existence of a soul within an animal! Do they not see, they themselves are both but a microbe and a universe and each animal - nay, microbe - has the same desires and wants as they.
When I see a spider in my bath, instead of watching it swish down the plug with the tsunami of water, I always move it to one of my house plants, so that it has a really good day in a new crib.
If only I could keep this birds-eye point of view as I go about my life day-to-day. But this is a doom and gloom thread, where my ego is separated from being in unity with the Universe, and instead struggles with anguish each and every day, struggling and striving through, trying to accomplish and reach something which I don’t know what it is - survival? It’s pointless if you think about it. We are all micro-domed doomed anyway, and I mean that, in a positive sense - there is no reason to struggle and strive, we are but doomed microbes anyway. Except, only the existence of soul, which breaks the rules of existence, tells us that everything happens for a reason.

With regards to the human body and Earth which are both capable of self-regulating healing - just as the body as an emotional response to trauma, the Earth will be having an emotional response to trauma. The phrase ‘Mother Earth’ is widely known yet under-appreciated - even the concept of planets being conscious is underestimated - the Earth, and other planets, are having emotional responses!! They are sentient.
Is God sentient? Must be. Yet, be immune to falsity or error - at least as far as our souls are concerned.

‘Elizabeth Taylor was the love of my life, but I was not the love of her’s.’
— Eddie Fisher
Pictured here together in 1961, ET with her famous tracheotomy scar she received as treatment for a serious case of pneumonia. She was in the middle of filming the movie ‘Cleopatra’ in the UK when she fell seriously ill. She was only saved by the off-chance when one of her entourage went down to the dining room of the hotel she was staying at and asked if there was a doctor in the building. There was - a throat specialist who performed a life-saving tracheotomy. The papers had already began printing news of her death and had asked Marilyn Monroe if she would be replacing her in Cleo (seen below). Joan Collins had been asked privately by the producer’s of Cleo if she would step in. But by a chance of fate, ET was saved by the doctor and, due to her health concerns, filming was moved to the warmer climate of Rome the following year. Her original co-star was no longer available due to the change in schedule and her new co-star became the relatively unknown Richard Burton - who would also become the love of Elizabeth Taylor’s life, after they fall in love on the movie set. Their love affair became so infamous, it was even condemned by the Vatican and is on par with the love story between Cleopatra and Marc Antony itself - a classic case of life imitating art, perhaps even a continuum.
Arrivederci, Eddie Fisher. History does not remember the loser’s.

For MM fans: This is a photo of Marilyn leaving the Presbyterian hospital, New York, in 1961, where she was admitted for nerves. Upon leaving, she was asked by one of the press if she would be replacing ‘Liz’ in Cleopatra - you can see the press holding a newspaper to Marilyn with the front page headline reading ‘Fight For Life Of Liz Taylor.’ Marilyn ignored the question and her publicist and friend Pat Newcomb would push the journalist and newspaper out of the way.

Queen Cleopatra of Egypt is widely believed to have deliberately allowed a cobra to bite her. And, if it bit her neck, that would be quite a coincidence!

A hazardous role for the actress!

I looked up ET’s life path ages ago and it was 8 - which is all about POWER - all her money, beauty, long-lasting fame and reputation - it all resulted in power.
She is a sun sign Pisces and an Asc Sag. So, according to your system, the tarot card associated with ET would be 8 of cups or 8 of Wands. I think of 8 of cups suits ET perfectly, the amount of loss she would have felt during her relationship with Richard Burton (losing your soul mate).
You may recall Mike Todd dying in a plane crash, their daughter together was only 6 month’s old and they had been married approx 1 year when he suddenly died. Heartbroken, very 8 of cups.
Yes, 8 of Cups.

I have been having power issue at work with a boss. From the start, I have had to fight for progression but there has been games played behind my back, as well as mistakes that I have made myself, that have made it particularly difficult to progress. Today I asked the boss guy why he had progressed others quicker than me. His reply was that he is interested in body language and psychology and he thinks I am ‘stern.’ Thinking about his comment now, I realise that I am quite stern, it’s the Saturn influence. But I have a good heart that for some reason he does not see. Instead, he has judged me as stern and because of this I am blacklisted.

Saturn is like a wall that encircles me like a snake made of stone. I cannot leave and others do not want to reach me. A planetary conservatorship.

The Purpose of Doom and Gloom:
‘You see, that will start, for instance, with the recognition that what you call good is very bad for other people, or what they call good is very bad for you. So you come to the conclusion that they are human beings too and they must have their point of view as you have yours. And then you are already out of it, already static, already au dessus de la mêlée. Of course you can take such a standpoint illegitimately before you have gone through the turmoil, just in order to avoid the conflict; people sometimes like to play that stunt, but that has no merit and they are tempted all the time to climb down into the turmoil. But if you have gone through the turmoil, if you cannot stand you any more, if the unconscious itself spits you out, then life itself spits you out as old Jonah was spit out by the whale; and then it is legitimate that you contentedly sit on the top of life, having a look at it. Then you can congeal the pairs of opposites in a beautiful static structure.’
— C.G Jung
— Nietzsche's Zarathustra notes of the seminar

There’s nothing wrong with being stern! I’m sure you can still be just as effective at your job while being stern.
I sense that he’s projecting. Maybe he had a parent that was stern and now he’s taking this out on you.
I trust people more who are stern. It feels more genuine to me versus the forced sales smile and chippy tone.

Poohs boss guy is just your average corporate sleaze bag. He doesn't like it when lackeys talk back, so he came up with the "you're too stern" bs.
Most likely, anyway.

Pooh should show him what stern is really like by progressing to a better job and giving him a stern resignation letter.
Don’t let this guy affect your self-esteem!
OR....she could learn some new spells and turn him into a frog!
