Why "Every man and every woman"?

Corvinae

I love peanuts!!!

Takamba I told you my favorite is rye toast with butter and peanut butter!!!

Yummy stuff.

Wanna know how I make peanut butter?

Its like making stars ya know.

Stars like humans are mass of all kinds of stuff. A pinch of this and a dab of that. But....heres the thing that makes stars. Nobel gases.
They are elements which have allready a perfect ring.
They dont make chemical equations on there own. Except in highly unusual (so we are lead to believe) circumstance (or is it circumferences?.. ...i might be being blinded here)
They have no need to bond with things like heium or carbon or oxygen.. ..they are just fine on there own.
Yet when they do desire to bond (just how does a pure element desire?? Hmmmm)
Bang!
You get peanut butter with butter on rye toast

Human being spend along time thinking that they need such and such to make thier life better, easier, happier, healthier because they deny (sin, restrict) to themselves that they allready have all that they really need.
So they get into relationships with others, because they think they are sodium who needs chorine so that that they can be happy being table salt. Or hydrogen needing some oxygen so they can wash away the salt with water.

I said I was a unicorn and that just crazy. How can a girl be a unicorn, unicorns are males. Yet there I was....being a unicorn because I felt like that was what the world (me) needed, something magical and crazy and fun and whimisical to believe in.....and now unicorns are all over the place running amuck and eating peanuts.

Its a wierd world.

I am a star.
I have within me two elements that are whole and pure and nobel. And that is the yoga of the self, the I and Thou dancing around the kitchen waiting for the toaster to pop up some rye so it came be buttered and peanut buttered.

You are.

"I brought peanuts."

Seriously? You DO know what qabalah does to peanuts, yes?

Corvinae

Thanks for the pretty song...
It reminded me of my early twenties when for some odd reason I was studying ancient English Tapestry art of Unicorns and reading the Book of Kells.

Sigh....great fun that road was....learning all about celtic knot work and such....

And then it seemed like everyone started getting tatoos of it and it became trendy.

Unicorns dont do trendy
We make trendy.

I am thinking of studying etymology more in depth and tossing that around. Maybe bring our ghetto slang back to its PIE root.

Im so sick of hearing
Bae and bruh

Or maybe I will study glaperastant and deonocforation and really wow the world.

Duly noted!

And in my own vocabulary, floccinaucinihilipilification never appears... Sesquipedalian... (seriously, j/k)

Corvinae

Never is a very long time.
It never appears hmmmm......
Well maybe its because your not focusing right.
I was never able to see what was in those magic eye pictures.....and then....one day....I got so upset that I couldnt....and Takamba could.....I just believed and trusted and surrendered....and
Bang
I saw many images in the one.....

So trust that if you keep looking and look with your heart and not just your eyes.....your thingambob will reveal itself.
Never say never.....
Which is just a silly thing to say and mathematically doesnt make sence.

Some people may think that Aleister Crowley was a feeble, drug-addled old man in the mid-1940s. He wasn't. But speaking through him...

"This is where I want to have you, with us who are come thus far, in a state utterly detached from the Ego, so that you appear the plain Jane Wolfe 'doing your duty in that state of life to which it has pleased God to call you' and consequently unremarked—like a Rosicrucian, 'wearing the habit of the country in which you are traveling'—but trembling with interior illumination, so that the first relaxation of the constant conscious burden of Jane Wolfe, Soror Estai is automatically released, a pillar of Creative Light."

Magick Without Tears

Are those the words of an enfeebled aged man? In my eyes I see the Magus of the Aeon of Horus exhorting one of his students to cross the Abyss. I am not an answer. You are. www.youtube.com/watch?v=uX39uHKAZHo

I found this little gem from a thread when I was digging about for info on my beloved Unicornness (which for a word should be promptly added to vocabulary lists IMHO).

I think it has a great deal to say to explain the original question of this thread so I am adding it here for the benefit of inquiring hearts and minds.

@Tinman said

"I note this from Jim's commentary to Liber AL, 1:3. Every man and every woman is a star:

"“Star” is here, apparently, Khabs. Each of us is, at our core, Khabs; but our lives, our veils etc., are Khabs am Pekht, “Light in extension.” (I have developed this more extensively for initiates of the Artisan Degree of Temple of Thelema.) This, as 451 (the Greek Konx Om Pax), is of course the central idea of the name A.'.A.'.. Knowledge of self, and of our way, and of the world, is encompassed in the phrase, “Light in extension,” and our ability to witness that L.V.X. “Khabs” is related to Kokav, Mercury, “star” (hence the eight words of this verse?). Every man and every woman is Kokav."

Takamba

Yes U R
Baby, you're a star

Corvinae

Unicornness is a wonderful word.

You know me
Never satisfied
Till I find the answer

Its that Secretarial side of me.

I can dot i 's and cross t's

I had the most beautiful expierence with the snow falling this morning. It was dark out and the light fluffy snow was falling qite persistantly when I brought my dogs out. The soft light from my back porch mde each flake seem to glow as it fell. I tipped my head back and looked up to see what seemed like the whole cosmos of stars falling down upon me, kissing my face and eyes with a wet cold burst. It was like the scene in StarWars when they jump into light speed and all the stars going rushing past in a blur.
The flakes themselves were seemingly like long extensions of light reaching and reaching out light a million potential suns whirling by as I streamed through the vast expanse of the endless sky.
It was beautiful.
And then one big flake plopped into my eye and reminded me that I had better focus on my pups before they wander and that my tummy needed some toast.

I'm adding that to my lexicon, sis. I don't give a fuck, I'll tell all of the grammarians and doubters off!

"I can dot i 's and cross t's "

Same.

You should write that into verse. It certainly deserves it! Except for the "star wars" Lucas part... Nah, they sold it to Disney...

Corvinae

Here ya go
Just off the top of my head
Haha

Falling beams of light
Sprinkled from the sky
Little puffs of life
Twinkling in my eye

Falling faster lighter
Yet always ever clear
Flakes of snow beholden
Pulling the universe down near

Falling stars of laughter
Cascading to the ground
A million little glimpses
A massing all around

My eyes were filled with wonder
At the beauty of it all
A million little unicorns
Dancing down in freefall

One little flake of heaven
Different from all the rest
Came down with sweet kisses
And into my eye did bless

Boffo!

All that originaly came to mind
After I thought you were just making it up
Was the classic
