We may not “need” it but we Need it. Speaking as one who never asked for it and was not conscious of needing it. Being cold is not living up to our potential. Got to circulate the warmth to make it grow and if it only flows one direction it slows down.

1month wait time but just ordered the book off Amazon.

I’m pretty sure it’s no news to you, but in case it is Owen Barfield was a student of Steiner and definitely had an influence on Tolkien. I’ve been impressed with all the Inklings work that I’m familiar with.

That is because they are delegating the responsibility of understanding the idea to the person they are getting the idea from. No one can be an expert in all things, but we often play the telephone game with understanding concepts. Also there can be a solid compromise where one uses a pseudonym but keeps it unchained for a long time across platforms. I’ve used the same profile pic and name for nearly 10 years.

I recently watched that movie again and was amazed what was in it. Like (unless I’m mistaken) the meeting of the guardian of the threshold.

Not familiar with anything related to Falcor but I’m sure it’s nice having something so warm in your dreams.

I’m fascinated by your expression of self healing. It’s so very different than mine in the way I perceive and practice it. However there are definite similarities and what you call trauma I generally only perceive as energetic imbalances.

I’ve experienced everything you said about the range of intensity of release not being tied to the “size” of the issue being fixed. Maybe when I get my receptive side more opened up I’ll have more color in my process.

I know what he was doing. I was making a joke out of it. Also, I too am much more familiar with Tarot than palm reading.

So you do palm readings too?!

Ultimate goal for a human being still leaves you hostile to others? Guess that’s not for me. I’m more interested in loving my fellow human beings.
