It is so difficult to find the truth in this world. Is it in the Bible? Is it in the Quran? Is it Science we should trust?
Personally, I find it too difficult to trust any words emanating from men, for I am a man, and know how untrustworthy I can be at times.
And yet, I do not believe - I refuse to believe, that we could be born into such a world without any sort of guidance. For this reason, I have long studied nature, the one thing we all get to observe, no matter where on the Earth we are, and that we need not learn a language to learn a lesson from. I have studied it with the hope of discovering valuable insights that I can know are from the Creator, and not from a source merely claiming to be.
It is with this hope, that I have gazed upon the sun, the moon and the stars. For the heavenly bodies that live in our sky and the manner in which they interact with each other, is something that all living, provided they were not born and died in a basement, have been able to see. Surely, if the Creator wanted us to know something, where better a place to encode that message?
One night not too long ago, while staring up at the sky, it spoke to me. And I listened. I decided to believe what I was told, and it will be up to you to decide whether you believe it too.
A message from above
Everything is metaphor.
The sun is a metaphor for the Son.
The moon is a metaphor for man.
In observing the phases of the moon, we are observing the many faces of man.
Sometimes, man will have the ability to reflect the light of the Son in abundance.
Other times, man will fail to do so, and be overcome with darkness.
But never is a man without the hope of redemption.
No matter how dark, there is always the potential to shine brightly again.
Accepting the Son into your life, is like watching the sun rise in the morning.
Everything is dark, until the Son rises within you, and the world is suddenly blessed with colour and warmth.
But occasionally, there is an eclipse, which heralds a collapse - a time when the light of the Son cannot reach this world for the darkness of man interfering.
The fall of man is coming, and a dark age it will bring with it.
But worry not, for every eclipse ends, and before long, the light of the Son shall return to this world.
Darkness cannot prevail, as long as there is light - so, let the Son rise within.
Over this past year participating on that shit platform facebook I have definitely learned the fine art of ignoring both posts and comments that irritate me. I'm definitely better off for it as I'm quite sure voicing my displeasure is a giant waste of time. (Referencing your discourse with the buzz lol)
What is not a waste of time is looking to nature for answers. As the world becomes more artificial, seeking the natural is the only true recourse. We leased 20 acres in the national forest near our house, second year in a row doing that and the best decision we've made in awhile. I can't wait for spring, leaving my phone off and sitting next to a campfire under the stars.
I wasn't irritated by their comments, and I am optimistic enough to think that the comment wasn't a waste of time and might one day help someone, even if that someone is not him/her.
I would really love to camping. I haven't done so since I was a teenager, and at that point it was more about getting extremely high in a smokey tent than observing and immersing myself in nature. It is very fucking cold in Scotland though, so I will have to wait for a good opportunity before I can do it.
I sent you something on discord by the way; or, I should say - I am about to.
Interesting observations. In a lot of cultures the moon is actually seen as feminine and the sun as masculine. It's interesting how it varies though and it's not always the case, I'm not totally sure what to think about giving gender to non biological beings, however... I do find it interesting sometimes how certain people in the occult or other spiritual practices can turn point out how certain rocks are masculine and certain water is masculine while others are feminine and it is a really interesting subject, though once again... I dunno the 100% truth there.
What you mentioned about the eclipse is intriguing... Perhaps that is what is happening... Perhaps we have to go through some darkness before the light comes back out?
Sometimes I wonder if there are certain sorts of cycles that are set into motion regardless of what humans do and I wonder if perhaps there's some kind of deeper force at play than just human nature. Reminds me of the Star Wars movies kinda... And lotsa weird occult stuff going on with those movies too. Life is strange sometimes!
I also like what you said about nature sort of providing clues for us... The more I learn about life the more I think that's a real good possibility! Good to see you writing again. :) Peace bud.
I am not sure if you're aware of this, but in the Old Testament, humanity is considered the wife of God, and in the New Testament, some teachings say that the human body, represents the bride of the spirit of Christ. So perhaps in some manner, the ancient teachings of the masculinity of the Sun and the femininity of the Moon, are communicating the same idea. Though I still consider the bible to be intentionally confusing, which is probably why the word sounds so similar to babble; to talk continuously in a non-coherent manner.
As I understand it, at least in the teachings of the Kabbalah, Fire and Air are seen as male forces, while Water and Earth are seen as feminine ones. While the reasoning behind these decisions does indeed make sense, we have to remember that it is most likely nothing more than men trying to make sense of their environment. And that if we chose to, and if it helped us to paint a picture of existence we felt comfortable with, we could rationalise fire as being hermaphrodite energy and water as being Llama energy. lol. At the end of the day, we get to decide the manner in which we view our environment.
I do think there are cycles that occur that we are largely ignorant towards. At the moment, there is all this talk of global warming, and many people believe that the governments of the world have supreme control over the weather. While I do think it exceptionally likely that they're able to manipulate the weather to a minor degree, I think that largely what is happening, is that another cycle is coming to an end and a new one beginning.
I say this because, in the bible, it speaks of something called a Jubilee. Which is essentially, a type of reset, involving money, that takes place every.. I think it is 150 years. I am too lazy to look it up right now. But the point of it is, and the idea is a great one, to minimise the desire in men to acquire extreme wealth or to attempt to own everything so they can leave it to their descendants. Considering empires are largely built upon who controls the food supply, I think the Solar Minimum said to be occurring at present, is not an accident, but a Solar Jubilee of sorts. And that the point of it, is so that places that were once the most fertile for growing food will soon become deserts, and places that were previously deserts, will soon become the most fertile places to grow food.
I suspect right now that there are a minimum of two factions attempting to preempt this Solar Jubilee, having knowledge of it in advance. The recent allocation of the land of "Israel," seems to be one side of this, and if you look it up, you will see that there is already greenery emerging in the region. But, others may seek to become the controllers of the food supply by creating synthetic food and GMO plants that can grow in harsh terrains.
This is all of course speculation, but I do think that empires are not supposed to, nor wanted by nature to endure, and that there is mechanism to ensure that they fall, so that one country or government cannot control the Earth indefinitely unchallenged.

This comment was worth reading. At least, it released some dopamine when making us laugh.
Have a great day too.
You ought to pay close attention to the things that typically incite laughter, and then you will understand what your laugh is an attempt to cover up. Though I suspect it more likely you did not laugh at all, and this was written for completely different purposes. Either way, I have said what I needed to, and I am positive that I will have a good day.
