About Me


The Aquarian Woman...
She dreams different dreams than you or I, hearing a distant drummer and following a star most of us have never seen. She belongs to everyone, and yet to no one. Her one great love is freedom, and her demand for it is insistent, but her allegiance to anyone who can accept a relationship within such limits is truly boundless. Let her wander through her wonderland alone when she chooses. Since she's such an individualist, the Aquarian female never hesitates to make her way alone if the need arises. Her own code of ethics may be quite different from the accepted codes of society, but she lives up to it completely. The unique and unusual is her wave-length. Although she enjoys shockng people by doing things like walking barefoot down Main Street smokng a big black cigar, she is also a social delight. She's graceful, witty, intelligent, and extremely adaptable to all forms of society, high and low and in the middle. She is truthful to a fault, and a dishonest relationship goes against her chemistry. She has so many outside interests and so many people who turn her on to talk with, there's not much time for her to worry about what you're doing when you're out of sight. It never bothers an Aquarian woman to be close with ex-lovers or husbands... she's forgotten the difficulties of the past and wiped the slate clean. Expect her to probe into your heart until you haven't a secret left, or a dream that hasn't been analyzed. Most Aquarian women are lovely, with a haunting, wistful beauty... at the very least, they're interesting-looking. A conversation with her can be remarkable, to say the least. She has charming manners, and usually behaves in a shy, almost reserved way. Then comes one of those sudden urges, and out will pop an unexpectedly poignant phrase. Never talk down to an Aquarian female. She'll resent not being considered your equal, and an unsympathetic attitude will cause her to retreat and become unapproachable. She will seldom punish you for telling the truth, no matter what you've done. She takes a tolerant view of even the most startling confessions, and with her unprejudiced viewpoint, she'll gain the complete confidence of her friends. Her pattern of physical passion is woven closely with threads connected to the mind and soul. Although their unique outlook leads some Aquarian girls into peculiar attachments, once they find the right mate their relationships are usually models of happiness. The line between friendship and love is often all but invisible to Aquarius. The quickest ways to lose her are to show jealousy, possessiveness or prejudice; to be critical, stuffy or ultra-conservative. She's susceptible to sudden flashes of inspiration, and her intuition is remarkable. Her judgment may not seem sound or practical at first, because she sees months and years ahead. The Aquarian female lives in tomorrow. What she says will come true, perhaps after many delays and troubles, but it will come true. I suppose, after all, that's the most special thing about the Aquarian woman... she's a little bit magic.

My Interests

My interests are many but tend to lean towards the creative... photography, art, music, theatre, literature and the like. Also, studies of people in relation to their world--sociology, psychology, human relations, and world religions--all facets of the human mind are fascinating. I enjoy yoga, rigpa meditation, reading, writing, gardening, herbalism, astrology, and all forms of divination. I'm passionate about food and wine, and I never pass up an opportunity to try something I haven't tasted before. I drink too much coffee and smoke too many cigarettes... These two addictions work well with the fact that my face is either glued to a computer screen or stuck in a book most of the time. I adore all animals, especially felines, and often prefer their company over that of humans. Future aspirations include more travel and eventually becoming that crazy old crone who lives with way too many cats and a few bats in her belfrey... I'm well on my way.

LADY LAZARUS
by Sylvia Plath

I have done it again.
One year in every ten
I manage it

A sort of walking miracle, my skin
Bright as a Nazi lampshade,
My right foot

A paperweight,
My face featureless, fine
Jew linen.

Peel off the napkin
O my enemy.
Do I terrify?

The nose, the eye pits, the full set of teeth?
The sour breath
Will vanish in a day.

Soon, soon the flesh
The grave cave ate will be
At home on me

And I a smiling woman.
I am only thirty.
And like the cat I have nine times to die.

This is Number Three.
What a trash
To annihilate each decade.

What a million filaments.
The peanut-crunching crowd
Shoves in to see

Them unwrap me hand and foot
The big strip tease.
Gentlemen, ladies

These are my hands
My knees.
I may be skin and bone,

Nevertheless, I am the same, identical woman.
The first time it happened I was ten.
It was an accident.

The second time I meant
To last it out and not come back at all.
I rocked shut

As a seashell.
They had to call and call
And pick the worms off me like sticky pearls.

Dying
Is an art, like everything else.
I do it exceptionally well.

I do it so it feels like hell.
I do it so it feels real.
I guess you could say I've a call.

It's easy enough to do it in a cell.
It's easy enough to do it and stay put.
It's the theatrical

Comeback in broad day
To the same place, the same face, the same brute
Amused shout:

'A miracle!'
That knocks me out.
There is a charge

For the eyeing of my scars, there is a charge
For the hearing of my heart
It really goes.

And there is a charge, a very large charge
For a word or a touch
Or a bit of blood

Or a piece of my hair or my clothes.
So, so, Herr Doktor.
So, Herr Enemy.

I am your opus,
I am your valuable,
The pure gold baby

That melts to a shriek.
I turn and burn.
Do not think I underestimate your great concern.

Ash, ash
You poke and stir.
Flesh, bone, there is nothing there

A cake of soap,
A wedding ring,
A gold filling.

Herr God, Herr Lucifer
Beware
Beware.

Out of the ash
I rise with my red hair
And I eat men like air.

I'd like to meet:

Heroes:

"We're the ones that won't change and won't back down and won't mellow with age. We feel that what's wrong with the world right now is the enormous number of people identifying with a really toxic, power-over mythology that disempowers women, disempowers people of color and disempowers the earth herself; and that the only solution to that is to walk away from that toxic mythology and embrace a different mythology -- one that is radical and revolutionary."
-Morning Glory Zell-Ravenheart
Imagine there's no heaven... It's easy if you try... No hell below us... Above us only sky... Imagine all the people... Living for today.Imagine there's no countries... It isn't hard to do... Nothing to kill or die for... And no religion too... Imagine all the people... Living life in peace.Imagine no possessions... I wonder if you can... No need for greed or hunger... A brotherhood of man... Imagine all the people... Sharing all the world.You may say I'm a dreamer... But I'm not the only one... I hope someday you'll join us... And the world will live as one.
-John Lennon
