  1. Thank you, very interesting!

    Have you had some Dolphin dreams in the past days? Nobody and Jake have been twittering about dolphins.
    Last night, thinking about dolphins before sleep - a very strange dream last night appeared involving "swimming like a dolphin" and then pretty weird pictures around Mono-Lith-A. 2010:Contact with the dolphin-collective?

  5. To: Nexus, my only dream is of me doing the Ouroboros because I used to be able to do that when I was in puberty.

  6. Interesting, there is more to be found around the Ouroboros... Sync pioneer CG Jung wrote about it:

    Jung saw the ouroboros as an archetype and the basic mandala of alchemy He defined the relationship of the ouroboros to alchemy as:

    The alchemists, who in their own way know more about the nature of the individuation process than we moderns do, expressed this paradox through the symbol of the ouroboros, the snake that eats its own tail. In the age old image of the ouroboros lies the thought of devouring oneself and turning oneself into a circulatory process, for it was clear to the most astute alchemists that the prima materia of the art was man himself.

    The ouroboros is a dramatic symbol for the integration and assimilation of the opposite, i.e. of the shadow self. This feed back process is at the same time a symbol of immortality, since it is said of the ouroboros that he slays himself and brings himself t life again, fertilizes himself and gives birth to himself. This is much like the cycle of the Phoenix, the feminine archetype.

    Ouroboros symbolizes The One, who proceeds from the clash of opposites, and therefore constitutes the secret of the prima materia which unquestionably stems from man's unconsciousness.
