Yes, I had a dream last night that featured the cartoon drawing of Don Quixote, as shown on this image, above. It was totally unexpected, so I took note, as you do.
The use of the cartoon highlighted an interesting aspect of our inner character. We are braver and more fool-hearty than is sometimes good for us. We can seem to be a little bit crazy, too. Anyway, the idea of tilting at windmills seems to be what the dream’s message was.
The Impossible Dream
To dream … the impossible dream …
To fight … the unbeatable foe …
To bear … with unbearable sorrow …
To run … where the brave dare not go …
To right … the unrightable wrong …
To love … pure and chaste from afar …
To try … when your arms are too weary …
To reach … the unreachable star …
.
This is my quest, to follow that star …
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far …
To fight for the right, without question or pause …
To be willing to march into Hell, for a Heavenly cause …
.
And I know if I’ll only be true, to this glorious quest,
That my heart will lie will lie peaceful and calm,
when I’m laid to my rest …
And the world will be better for this:
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove, with his last ounce of courage,
To reach … the unreachable star …
.
Don Quixote
Quixotic is an adjective we use to describe someone or something as “exceedingly idealistic; unrealistic and impractical.” Sounds just like me.
I was also thinking how quixotic with a Spanish pronunciation would sound like ‘chaotic’. Seems appropriate, somehow.
Together With Unbelievers: (2 Corinthians 6:14) KJV
My memory banks opened on this scripture today, when I happened to meet our neighbours dogs, Sophie and Seven, being walked by their owner, as I was walking Cloe.
Seven, smiling at me
Sophia, ready to defend her territory
You see, Sophia is about twice the size of Seven, even though they came from the same litter. (Seven may have been the runt.) When they walk together, Sophia is in control: where she wants to go, they both go, since Seven doesn’t have the body to resist her sister.
And that makes it awkward for them both.
When St. Paul wrote these words, he was referring to the yoking together of two oxen (or at least the translators were).
Here’s the full verse:
2 Corinthians 6:14
“Be ye not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship hath righteousness with unrighteousness? and what communion hath light with darkness?”
We live in a world of infinite possibility. Remember that.
The idea that the soul has free will is also promised. But what happens if your intended body gets aborted before you even get there? What would you do? Give up?
These questions have been on my mind for more than 30 years.
If at first you don’t succeed…
Go somewhere else?
This thought came flooding into my awareness within the past week. I was reading another WordPress blogger’s post: it was about Retrogrades in the birth chart. The author had included her own chart, as an example. I stared at that chart, wondering why I should find it so fascinating.
I decided to investigate, first by working backwards to see if I could pinpoint her birth date, and then contacting her by commenting on her post.
Long story, short: she is definitely part of my ‘spiritual heritage’ but the jury is out for anything else.
My spiritually inclined friends suggest that it could be true, but that I’m not really supposed to interfere with her progress.
So, there you have it. Yes, maybe, no. Which one would you think is true?
The look is familiar, isn’t it? You’d almost think it was Sean Lennon, at first glance.
But it’s not. This is Adam Douglas (his stage name). He won a television music contest in Norway in 2017, when he was 36 years old. He was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1981, just a few months after John Lennon was killed in New York City.
But is he Lennon reincarnated? Not entirely sure, since the passing from one life and his return would have been so short, but I suspect there are no limits on what a determined spirit can do.
Birth Chart
Just a reminder that this is a rectified birth chart based on a North Node placement at 36 years of age. Interesting, nonetheless.
To preserve Mr Douglas’ privacy, I will not discuss his birth chart, but that won’t stop the Astrologers who frequent my posts from coming to their own understanding of his personality.
Two things make me think this could be right. John Lennon always wanted to be a natural-born American. But I suspect he admired Norway for its open-mindedness.
Anyway, it’s time to look at their two birth charts together, to see what correspondences exist there.
Impressive aspects, eh? (For those that can see, let them see…)
Because, John’s death was only 24 weeks before Adam’s birth, the outer planets hadn’t really moved on very much, so I don’t think it serves any purpose to post that chart comparison here.
