Flin Flon is short for Josiah FLINTabbatey FlonaTIN. The prospector who goes into the bottomless lake in a submarine and finds a city ruled by women, streets made of gold, tin as currency. He is a bachelor so he escapes out of a crater of an old volcano.
Here is a classic Canadian short film by the National Film Board about Flin Flon and how it got it's peculiar name. I remember it from seeing it on TV as a child.
The cartoonist Al Cap designed a version of Flin Flon which is a now a statue in the town.
While in Flin Flon I will get the chance to edit "Hair Peace" the next Radio8Balll collaboration with Kotze starring Patricia Arquette.
Patricia is a Portal of Balance/Libra.
Jake tells me Flin Flon sounds like the movie City of Ember. Which is about a sunless city. I just downloaded it and I plan to watch the torrent during my Calm Air flight tomorrow afternoon.
Which is curious as the poster highlights the letter E with a lighting bolt and E is the 5th letter of the alphabet and the 5th planet from the sun (which is also a really big 5 right now high in the fall sky). The lightning bolt is a symbol of Jupiter. All of which was an inspiration of this Channel No. 5 collage I did last week.
And this is still the month of Step EMBER.
OCTOBER stands out from the other two Ember Months (NovEMBER & decEMBER).
am i about to do something petty? Because, you know what they say. . .
actually, I'm about do do another fucking 3 kings post.
Glass House? The nuance behind the glass house has to do with the transparent fact of The NOW. In the mid 90's, sincerity was not cool. Sarcasm, and irony provided one with distance--an aloofness, to protect one's cool. One's image (form) was highly groomed and maintained. Everything was a reflection upon one's image.
NOW, our technology has opened us UP. We reveal more and more. . .
What's my fucking deal? I think about this often. I'm compelled to explore a philosophy, and it rings, now. It is transparent enough to lead me to the next part. As such, I'm not creating "normal" sync posts much lately. Perhaps this post will elucidate this some, perhaps not.
I've become somewhat of a student of the whole. That is, I've turned my gaze inward. In my early years of sync, I looked upon the dream, and "reality" and saw pattern. Lately I've looked at The Whole, to see those same patterns manifest--part of this is understanding those of us who have been called and compelled to make their lives transparent for The NOW. Perhaps the philosophy is necessary. . .
The best model to embody this philosophy that I've been exploring for the better part of this year, has been a tree. It communicates the wholeness of the parts. (I think I'm moving beyond this though, in favor of a new model that explains The NOW much better, perhaps that's the end of the post though. . . . or the beginning?)
So how do we get at the equation 3 =1? Something that had been a "problem" for me, and part of the impetus for this line of thought is the notion that Winnipeg = truth. My rational reasoning mind figured. . . Winnipeg = truth. I live in Boise. Winnipeg ≠ Boise. My life is a lie. And that was harsh, but that is logic for you.
Twitter is teaching me that like in The Matrix, there is only The City. In The NOW, The City is same. Those of us who dwell in the city, dwell in the heart of being. Earth is the heart of being as well. Often, however, we feel the need to leave the city either to visit The Wasteland/Ocean or The Forrest. It is an integrating process that bridges our societal duality. Modernity created The City apart from nature, and it is this perceived separateness that is killing the planet. The NOW and its mystical (not logical) solution is going integrate the three kingdoms of being bringing The Forrest & The Wasteland into The City. My brain wants to understand this notion, but it's not "brain" thing.
Speaking of brains. . . This morning, after dropping little Buddha off at school, and while running my Jupiter dog in the hills, I finally took in my own kingdoms. Should I make my glass house a little more transparent?
So there they are, my three jobs.
The UPper photo is my money job. It is where I work. ( I honestly can't believe that it should occupy the "Heaven" slot.) I suppose I will have to justify this somehow.
Home is where the heart is. Notice my house number on the middle image: 1809. It is my number and a huge sync in my life. That number recently helped me over the rational duality of my life being a lie.
The lowest image
--just had a flash about my tree
As I try and "place" things into categories, the "spinning" (♋)of The NOW illustrates the shortcomings of a rational description, or breaking into parts, the now unified whole. . . The Brain is one?
The Hemispheres of the brain mirror one another. Left is pop. Right is Mom. God & The Devil. Heaven and Hell.
The lowest image above represents The Sync Whole. My work at The Whole and at my money job mirror each other. I suppose it was when I noticed the alignment of my kingdoms, that my posts began to become more personal. I can't separate the dream from me anymore. What I'm doing as the dream happens, is the same thing. And this is further illustrated, in that those of us making our houses more transparent, seem to do such similar things all at the same time. The weekend Jupiter was smashed, Jim & Jake were in Ceremony and I was in retreat in Seattle. Just recently, Jim & Jake at the lake = me at the lake. Jim & I also were both in an alignment of liberty on Labor Day & on The 4th.
I suppose this is the reason, why I've become a student of the brain lately. A student of The Whole. My gaze lately has been focused not at the larger world of sync, but at the synkings. Funny too, I recall a desire after I had taken a sync lap, (a trip around the sun), to get into harder science to see if I couldn't bring a little peanut butter into my chocolate. See I am a child of divorce--alone since my mom and pop split. That's what I've been doing this Tiger--seeing if I can't get mom and dad talking again.
maybe I've droned on enough? I've tired of trying to fit things in boxes, when after all, it all spins. . . The NOW happens.
This is NOW. Everyone is following and Everyone is leading. The organism is whole.
i am creator and created and creating. all at once. kinda simplifies things, eh?
not reaLly.
in between perception and creation is us, there we Lie, dreaming, wishing... a universe of possibility, of infinity and eternity, all now Here nowhere, in the whole of synk.~toure
"This is one of my favorite things about ants -- the ant death spiral. Actually, it's a circular mill, first described in army ants by Schneirla (1944). A circle of army ants, each one following the ant in front, becomes locked into a circular mill. They will continue to circle each other until they all die."~The Ant Room
notice the flower? it could be perceived as a problem for the ants, but no, it just changes the flow. Everyone leads, Everyone follows. this is sync. it all syncs. this is alignment. a problem is in your mind, let go to the flow and you have no problems. . .
I like Jim's response to my initial desire to make the Death Spiral less dark:
theghostlight @Syncwinnipeg like your read on the ant spiral, wonder though if one couldn't read it opposite as well. . .
theghostlight@Syncwinnipeg thinking that maybe the flow will lead one out of a deadly pattern, or that one can break their programming and find center.
@theghostlight I like the Ant Death Spiral because it resonates the Spiral/Black Hole as ANTenna.
I eventually embraced the darkness of the symbol while turning it in my mind, gnoticing how NOW it is. . .
theghostlightof course the spiral is a beautiful strange loop where everyone is leading and everyone is following (iCreate)--a pure symbol of alignment.
so, then. . .
What's my fucking deal?
I look inward. I am conscious.
I am consciousness becoming conscious of consciousness,
watching you watching.
I am a beautiful strange loop
and at the center is nothing.
enter the sync whole
Jake: I was looking at this poster for an upcoming Diane Lane film and realized Secretariat is Secret Tiara or Crown. That was somewhat interesting as the movie is about a famous horse (Secretariat) who becomes the first in 25 years to win the U.S Triple Crown, a series of three Thoroughbred horse races.
It's the kind of thing I imagine people who write about sync notice all day and just gets tagged in the brain for future reference (or briefly mentioned on twitter) should something bring it up again or become associated in some other interesting way. Often they just seem to vanish.. Sometimes They Come Back. Recently we saw that Tom Robbins escapes via portal, dug in his prison cell, hidden behind a poster of Raquel Welch. I wrote a post about it because I happened to see it the day after her birthday, the same day a fireball was spotted over Colombia.
Rita's Secret: The Rabbit Whole
The original lady covering his Rabbit Whole however is Rita Hayworth, most famous for her role in Gilda, where she does an iconic whipping of her hair as her head pops onto the screen, when we meet her for the first time. The trailer for the film starts this way and this moment is highlighted by Morgan Freeman in Shawshank Redemption as his favorite part.
Tiara is also Rita which means Secretariat can become Secret Rita. This seemed quite random and pointless which is always a very good sign. In Hollywoodland Toni Mannix (Diane Lane from Secretariat), the wife of MGM studio executive Eddie Mannix (Bob Hoskins), is about to greet Rita Hayworth. Bob Hoskin's, husband of Diane Lane in Hollywoodland, spies on Jessica Rabbit in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
Right now I am fascinated by the connection hair/hare(rabbit).
Diane Lane greets Rita, famous for her hair entrance in Gilda, who inspires Jessica Rabbit while Diane is married to Bob Hoskins...
Opportunistic and down on his luck Ben Affleck, as the future star of television's Adventures of Superman George Reeves, tries to sneak into an imminent photo op with Rita. He is trying to catch some of her star power for himself as his acting career is going down hill. Lane, his soon to be lover, spots his grift. Ben is playing out Virgo/Nun (23 August – 23 September) with his highly praised The Town. The Glass House is one of two films released on the weekend following 911 2001: A Space Odyssey , marker of the emergency C-section which has brought consciousness into form, fully birthed in 2010: The Year We Make Contact.
See Wikipedia 2001 In Film, Wide-release Movies The only other wide release film on the weekend after the Twin Towers collapsed was Hardball. What sticks out about these films, given the context mentioned above, is the presence of Diane Lane in both said movies.
The Hair crowns the head and is the Secret Tiara.
Peace In = Peace Out In Never Been Kissed Drew Barrymore befriends Leelee Sobieski, the Star of The Glass House. DB/42 goes to her prom as a Princess and is crowned as Queen with her Tiara. She takes to the dance floor as Prom Queen and the Tiara and Rabbit strange attract. Leelee shows up with her nerdish posse as part of a Double Helix DNA (dna/pan/whole) strand. The coiling Hair wave and the Helix share resonance.
On September 11th Jennifer Palmer (@true) posts notification of her Reality Sandwich entry at Facebook, sighting an interesting perfect spiral in deep space, recently photographed by Hubble. Jennifer Palmer: First there was the Norway Spiral, which was followed by reports of other spiral sightings around the world...now the Hubble telescope takes pix of this "perfect" celestial spiral... While scientists have offered an explanation, I think the repetition of this shape speaks to a change in our collective unconscious--time... An unusually "perfect" cosmic corkscrew surrounds the binary star system LL Pegasi in a new Hubble Space Telescope picture released this week."
Astronomers think the spiral's evenly spaced rings are being created because one of the stars in the binary pair is dying. National Geographic Daily News Today I hit play on the trailer for upcoming (release date 12 November 2010) alien sci-fi thriller film Skyline. The poster and trailer sees thousands of people ascending towards the blue lighted heavens and a giant space ship.
Strange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, drawing people outside like moths to a flame where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth.
The Relativity Media Studio Logo very much resonates the "Star Death Spiral". We see that on 28 Aug 2009 a message was sent into space in an attempt to Contact extraterrestrials.
I checked The Sync Whole to see if we were up to anything on 28 Aug last year.. Richard started a post called Yellow Cats, to which I added (Kid and yellow floW at the Peg Leg). Met with Jon Kidd "The Accidental Alchemist" and felloW Sync Whole blogger at the Winnipeg Legislative Building this morning.
In the post I explain how on the morning of the 28th of August (if I made that update on the same day as the original post by Richard, which is likely..) me and Jim Sanders visited the Legislative Building with sync blogger John Kidd (@AxidentAlkemist). The building is an intentional echo of Solomon's Temple built by Masons in the early 1900's. It is nicknamed the Peg Leg as Winnipeg is popularly shorted as The Peg and Legislative becomes simply Leg.
CBC video of Frank Albo describing building as Solomon's Temple.
That same day we saw the Lieutenant Governor's room, a space the public may not enter, which represents the Holy of Holies. I noted its yellow embroidered flower as resonant of the original theme of the post introduced by Richard. Posted this poster combo for The Town and easy A, both opening this Friday the 17th September on my twitter. I liked how they entrain as one sees the Nun/Virgin on The Town and on the other shows the Harlot/Temptress Emma Stone of easy A (based on The Scarlet Letter). We are still in Virgo and the sync web is pregnant with female energy. This combo shows how the two extremes of the sacred feminine are both represented, entraining by being released on the same day in Virgo.
Jim (@synwinnipeg) mentioned that these films further entrain with Yom Kippur (Sat 18th September 2010), one of the holiest days in the Jewish calender, and the only day on which the High Priest could enter the Holy of Holies.
The Holy of Holies (Hebrew: Tiberian: קֹדֶשׁ הַקֳּדָשִׁים Qṓḏeš HaqQŏḏāšîm) is a term in the Hebrew Bible which refers to the inner sanctuary of the Tabernacle and later the Temple in Jerusalem where the Ark of the Covenant was kept during the first Temple, which can be entered only by the High Priest on Yom Kippur. Wiki Holy of Holies
Cool that looking at Skyline today would make me realize that we looked into the Holy of Holies (only entered on Yom Kippur) on the same day the film says a signal was sent at extraterrestrials and that this weekend happens to be Yom Kippur. Further Richard (@blackdogstar) noticed that another 17th September release entrains with easy A. The red A makes the Up Arrow and red V for DeVil makes the Down Arrow. This is a perfect fractal of the movie which brings it all together Alpha and Omega also opening, yet again on the 17th, the day before Yom Kippur. We see the Up and Down arrows forming the Alpha and Omega on the right, on a decorative feature for Gaudi's Sagrada Família. "Alpha and Omega" or "as above, so below" same, same..
(Stylized carving at entrance to Antoni Gaudi's Sagrada Família (Barcelona)Wikipedia Alpha and Omega)
Getting back to the "Star Death Spiral" we note that it is located by binary star system LL PEGasi. The PEG as we have seen resonates WinniPEG...
LL can be rotated becoming 77/OZ. The "binary star" aspect also resonates very well with our sync web as we have explored the twin stars of 2010: The Year We Make Contact at length in these pages.
My overall take is that the Twin Stars are the Self and Other, there integration leading to the birth of the StarChild/Joy/Jupiter. We see the Twin/Binary Stars at the end of 2010 the film, a fractal of the actual year we are now living. The Office S5 E8 Business Trip sees Steve Carell travel to WinniPEG. Two of Carell's colleagues also travel to The Peg. Including Ed Helms, seen drinking in the WinniPeg Bar "The Huntsman". Huntsman can be thought of as Sagittarius who's ruled by planet Jupiter. Ed is also in The Hangover with the Tiger, the animal associated to 2010 via the Chinese Zodiac, that some believe is associated to Jupiter's 12 year orbit.
Rainn Willson stays at The Office. I watched this episode with Jim together in room 214 of The Days Inn while hanging out in Northern Manitoba in a Town called Thompson. Thompson means Twin and Son/Sun makes it again resonate Binary Star.
Thompson's animal is the Wolf and you can see then Thompson Wolves them in Jim's post God Flow like a Wolf Dog. The wolf of Thompson resonates the movie Alpha and Omega.
I was totally short circuited, for a few seconds, when viewing this moment below, together with Jim in TwoSun... Further we had both just realized the NO Smoking symbol also contains the OZ (while NO is already OZ if we let the N flip), it sync winking from right behind of Riann Wilson as he say "are there two suns?"
See The Blob post NO for NO as OZ. the last mimzy has been associated with these types of sky Spiral's before like in The Sync Whole post "Water of Life I am poured for thirsty men". The girl facing the portal is holding the Rabbit/Hare/Hair. We see that Riann Wilson - who asks "are there two suns?" (resonating the Binary Star LL PEGasi) in an The Office episode featuring WinniPEG - is also in this film so provocatively echoing this new perfect spiral in space.
Sync=Contact
In Easy A Emma Stone plays Olive. We see the Olive and Exodus 20:14 (Jupiter numbers) "Thou shalt not commit adultery" aka the 7th commandment. Olive is found in the Holie of Holies of Solomon's Temple according to Wikipedia.
The film that opens the weekend of Yom Kippur, the only day when the High Priest could open the Olive Wood Doors and see the Olive Wood Cherubim, Stars a girl called Olive! Her father is Stanley Tucci, which couldn't be more perfect as he appears inside the Winnipeg Legislative Building (modeled after Solomon's Temple) with Richard Gere in Shall We Dance? This film was shot in Winnipeg. Above is Jim Sanders and Kevin Halcott (@indradhanush) mimicking the washroom scene from Shall We Dance?, during the Cosmic Tigger (meeting of Sync Whole members in Winnipeg) this summer. I like that the school Logo is again the ON or OZ/77, remembering that this all started because of LL(77) PEGasi.
The Red Headed Emma Stone meets Patricia Arquette in Medium S2 E5 Sweet Dreams. Patricia speaks of the Phoenix resonating all the fiery themes of SeptEMBER, while Emma mentions the Devil again echoing the flame/female of Virgo. This talk of the Devil with Patricia easily ties back to the Alpha and Omega of this weekends pairing of easy A with DeVil.
Jim:
Jake: LL PEGasi resonates PEGasus as Richard notes on twitter. I like that the asi in pegASI means sword in sanskrit and that Sam Worthington carries a sword while flying on the Pegasus in Clash of the Titans.
The town is named after a character in a book called THE SUNLESS CITY.
