stevenaia Michinaga: bye Susan
Storm Nordwind: Goodnight Susan
Auguste Wolfhunter: nite, Susan
Paradise Tennant: sweet dreams susan
Paradise Tennant: did anyone have a topic .. any dreams .. books .. ideas ..
Archmage Atlantis: Steve, Chester hears things I do not.......I see detail and color he does not......yet we are as one, on this stage
Paradise Tennant: pet symbiotice relationships ! could spend a long time on that one :)
Auguste Wolfhunter: Zusanna and I share the same consciousness sometimes; I swear she knows more English than I know Spanish. Complicated sentences too.
stevenaia Michinaga: I have a copy of Wilhelm;'s The ICHING book that my associate picked up at a yard sale, if anyone want's it I will send it to them (I have a copy)
Paradise Tennant: dogs and cats are such linguists
Auguste Wolfhunter: Paradise, yes, they are.
Auguste Wolfhunter: steve, that is quite a find. :)
stevenaia Michinaga: it was in a box of books so no sence in having it sit on a shelf
stevenaia Michinaga: ..unused
Archmage Atlantis: Are you into the divination of the IChing, Steve?
stevenaia Michinaga: nods
Storm Nordwind: That will save someone $20 with that kind thought Steve
stevenaia Michinaga: nods
stevenaia Michinaga: Arch, Pila hosts 2 monthly meetings to discuss the IChing
stevenaia Michinaga: you are welcome to join us

--BELL--

stevenaia Michinaga: one in the mornng and one in the eveing
Archmage Atlantis: All divination, all forecasting....it tells us what we already know.....Yet.....it is important.....as my great grandmama was important
Auguste Wolfhunter: Huntress told me she really liked the last one he did.
Auguste Wolfhunter: Arch, all knoweldge involves recollection from when we were souls
stevenaia Michinaga: for me it is the perverbial "Wack on the side of the head" creates an environment to think differently
Storm Nordwind: Do you think Arch that divination cannot tell you what you don't yet know?
Auguste Wolfhunter: steve, lol
Archmage Atlantis: Difficult question, Storm
Auguste Wolfhunter: Well, the knowledge is implicit in what we already know; like all knowledge. But divinition, I think, is just a way to focus the mind and project it non locally
Archmage Atlantis: I may know something, yet be unaware of it......that is my best answer at the moment
Auguste Wolfhunter: Tossing sticks or reading cards or moving a planchett doesn't really do anything by itself.
Storm Nordwind: So you would both subscribe to the model that one's self (in some form) drives the divination process?
CXX AXX: i'm back
Archmage Atlantis: Welcome back calomhin
Auguste Wolfhunter: Storm, well 'self' is tricky, but I subscribe to the Huna belief, which is also in the Gospel according ot Mary Mageleine, that you divine things by first going, in a trance, deep into your unconscious, and then up to higher consciousness.
Storm Nordwind: Hi Aphrodite!
Auguste Wolfhunter: Hi Aph
Auguste Wolfhunter: WB, caio
stevenaia Michinaga: hello Aphrodite
Paradise Tennant: hello aph
Archmage Atlantis: Do you have a preferred way to be addressed?
Aphrodite Macbain: Hi Storm, Paradise. Auguste Adolfe
Archmage Atlantis: Cat eating keyboard, one moment.
Auguste Wolfhunter: Adolfe? Who's Adolfe?
Aphrodite Macbain: No Idea. I thjought I read that.
stevenaia Michinaga: :)
Auguste Wolfhunter: Adolfe must be your imaginary friend., Aph
Auguste Wolfhunter: Hiiii, Adolfe!
Aphrodite Macbain: maybe I mixed Auguste and Wolf i my head. Hmmm
Auguste Wolfhunter: How do people like my ground sit?
Auguste Wolfhunter she said randomly
Aphrodite Macbain: Idopnt need any imaginarey friends. I have some fine real ones
Archmage Atlantis: Experiencing bio interference
Auguste Wolfhunter: Arch, is that a euphemism for you having to pee?
Aphrodite Macbain: It's a fine sit Auguste
Auguste Wolfhunter: Thanks, Aph
Archmage Atlantis: Euphemism for Chester deciding to eat my keyboard
Auguste Wolfhunter: There's another one in this AO which I like too; and a couple of the stands
