A collision with an emu - I wonder was he/she trying to get your attention?

"The emu, as a spiritual symbol, often embodies strength, endurance, and a connection to the earth. People who resonate with the emu spirit animal are typically strong-willed, resilient, and grounded individuals who find strength in difficult circumstances. The emu’s presence in spirituality often emphasizes the importance of staying focused on life’s journey, regardless of obstacles."

IDK. But I like that and it seems to fit with what I know of you.

"Well, let’s look at the chart of the insufferably smug lead singer of U2." That made me smile.

Thanks, Isaac. Always appreciate your larger perspective.

Your new drum set is looking good on you, Isaac. Great rendition, I really enjoyed your playing. How will you take your shiny new set with you when you're mobile again?

Your forecast matches my intuition. And it sounds like 2025 will be off with a jumpstart.

I realized, when looking something up, that MAGA, the Egyptian crocodile demon deity, is the son of Set, possibly with a goddess he raped. So you have the fratricidal sociopathic proto-Yahweh, portrayed by the jackal/donkey, and he spawns MAGA, the son of Jack-the-Ripper God in a crocodile suit. The Messiah with a wide crazy grin and lots of teeth.

Yep. I'd say strap in. It's gonna be a wild ride.

Thank you for those kind words Tereza, and happy arbitrary new year. The spirit of the Emu seems to be directing me towards Percussion over mobility for the immediate future, so a wombat will not doubt their higher wisdom.

Is there a word that has more occult significance wrapped into it than MAGA? If the stars are accurate, the cult of Set is building up to a ritualistic climax for eclipse season in March, so one can only imagine what might be summoned up over the next few months!

Same here on Isaac's playing!

Of course you would look up MAGA :-) and wow, fascinating.

Wild ride, yup. My sense too.

I actually found it by accident because I do a lot of research on Set(h) as the origin of the Yahweh psycho-god. I couldn't believe it. When I do my recording later today (she says, aware that she said that yesterday) I'll include the great AI rendering that Amy did, unaware that it was MAGA she was portraying.

Right now, cement's being poured into my new sidewalk (at the city's behest but my expense, as these things go) so I have a vicarious sense of accomplishment. There's a little Frenchie who's the inspector. So I'm feeling good about it, despite the expense. I'll be citing you both while the concrete cures ;-)

I love your posts!

And yeah, it seems like the Nasties are feeling Quite Threatened, and are flailing all over SS with their attempts to dampen our mood, our lives, our outlook...

I think they know, subconsciously, maybe, that WE WILL KICK THEIR ASS, and it's gonna be going on THIS YEAR, I do feel that. I could be wrong, of course, but look at the U fuckin N... look at how frightened they are! Well, get used to it, you traitors!! So saith the Dog.

(And fangks for the drumming fun!)

Nothing is settled in my world yet, but it's starting to look like I can build a wee biz.

Thanks, Isaac, and Best Wishes for you in 2025, too! xo xo

You’re rockin’ that new set! Great investment!

I was reading through the transformations and drawing parallels with my chart you did and I’d conclude, 2025 is gonna be a great year on a universal and personal level.

Why is it that every time I hear “emu”, I think “dodo”? My first instinct was “you hit an extinct bird”? And now I’ve written ‘instinct’ and ‘extinct’ in a sentence and am questioning everything about the English language.

Thankyou friend! You should be very excited, with Pluto moving into your 1st House and the peak of that brutal Moon Opposition out of the way.

Emu's are well and truly alive and kicking. Badass in fact: the world's largest flightless bird I believe!

Are they bigger than ostriches? I suppose they’re pretty similar.

Oh, and yes, absolutely welcoming Pluto in that 1st House. Gotta know thyself.

OMG, the beautiful white feathers stuck in the crack of your car! 🤭 Glad you and the emu are both ok.

I love astrology and have studied it a bit, but I feel I will forever be at toddler-level understanding. Geometry has always tripped me up. I am always blown away by the accuracy of my readings, which began in my fifties.

Sun, Mercury, and Venus in Sag. Moon and Rising in Taurus. Chiron, NN, and Midheaven in Capricorn. Not that you asked! :)

The Gregorian New Year thing has always bothered me. It's hibernation time! At least, it feels that way for me. I have always lived in the northern US states.

Thx for the info, Isaac, and Happy Fake NY!

Thank you Barbara! I recovered most of the Emu feathers, and they are safe in my room as a reminder/testament. I have since done a deep dive into Emu energy, and have started making regular trips to a local Emu haunt to show my appreciation and be open to any further guidance they have for me.

I was a skeptic for a while, but the last two years (after my first reading nailed me to a tee) have been a complete immersion into all forms of Astrology: starting with Sidereal and more recently traditional Hellenistic.

That's a lovely balance Mutable, Fixed and Cardinal -- and all that Earth explains the vibe of your Stack perfectly! Must have been a fun 5 or so years with Uranus making its way through your 1st House. Big career transformations with Pluto now in the 10th. And lots of Silence, Dreaming and Healing with Saturn and Neptune about to move into the 12th 👀

Oh my, that last little gift made me choke up. Thank you, Isaac. It's interesting that I have such a love of Ayurveda, and yet I've never had a Vedic astrology reading that resonated as deeply as the other forms have. It's all so fascinating! :)

And I love that you're looking at the accident at a much deeper level...connecting with the Emu! I don't know anything about them. But those feathers look amazing!
