Gorgeous Gandy.


He's only doing his job, but damn, he sticks out like a sore thumb! Hahaha.

He says you've got to stay humble, be meek.
Boy would I like to tell him what to do.

  'Ok, turn around. Alright, now get on your hands and knees. Great. Now stretch out. Ok wonderful. Now look over here'...hahaha. Yup. Would be fun. What a job.

The Great GANDY! (I use to have Chris Sheppard's Pirate Radio Sessions Volume 1, 2, 3, and 4. There was a song on one of them that said the word "GANDY!" hahaha, or something like that. I use to dance to that music)


I think it would be horrible working around a guy like that. Hahaha. I feel sorry for all the ladies and gay guys that have to work around him. Horrible. Hahaha.













Whale? Whadaya think?

Yum








Terrible huh?
Yup.


Hellish!

Complex Symbolism In Life, Reflected In Movie.


     The symbolism in life, let alone in movies, is so mysterious. Looking at it head on, it's bedazzling.
One can hardly describe what they see, through their own personal symbolism in real life, as, it's very individual, and everyone has their own specific life, but some things can be described that encompass the whole.

  To make a long story short, I was disgusted that this guy I knew, for about 4 months now, had put some picture of a sexy lady on his phone (again!), and as he's trying to show me something on his phone, it's kind of uncomfortable looking at, well, what I'd call sleazy stuff, but it really isn't, it's just obviously sexy. And me, whell, I'm just not into that kind of thing whether male or female. It's not a natural part of my daily life. So the guy is 47 years of age and has this 'poster' haha of a sexy woman on his phone, and it's distracting to me, because it feels like I'm just dealing with another dope, for lack of better words. But I just may be a little too judgemental in my overly caged lawed, ruled, regulated strict life. Hmhmhm. What happened was, when we met, I just put up with it for a while. But after we got to know each other a bit, I told him I was uncomfortable with it. So he changed it and, dimly, he put one of my artistic photographs on there, a glass of wine spilling over that looks like blood. But I wasn't comfortable with that either, and I couldn't tell him outright, though I tried. He really liked it, kept it on there for a long time. Well, we had a few arguments during this time knowing one another, stuff like he likes dogs (he has a dog) and in the house, and I just can't stand having an animal in the house, and other incompatible relational situational stuff like that... and the last arguement we had, neither of us talked to each other for a week. But then we got together again, and that's when I saw he had changed the photo again, on his phone, to some sexy female. I thought, god, I can't live with this kind of thing, besides all the very ignorant things he says...it's just disheartening. I try so hard, but one can't force themself to drop in their efforts because someone isn't up to par in their way, or that way, what ever way, you know? And I thought, I don't want this guy a part of my life, just a friend. So I had to figure out a way to teach him something, at the same time, gently push him away, because I like him, but I don't want to get any closer.

   So I had a bright idea. I thought, hey! what if I found a picture of some hot bodied male and stuck that on my computer's wallpaper, so that when he comes over, he could be uncomfortable looking at a  well chiselled male body oozing sexuality. Hahaa. Geez. Such a bright idea, hm. Hm. Because I don't gather pictures of handsome sexy males. I have no use for them. I have too many other things that I have to be looking at, like cryptic works of art by alchemists, or some well arranged room with magnificent interior decoration so I could learn what it is that makes a place peaceful, luxurious, beautiful, comfortable...you know? Just other things. So I'm looking for handsome males all over the internet. I found a few, but this one male in particular stood out in my face. I had put a picture of one of the sexy males on my wallpaper, but now I was interested in this one very beautiful looking male.
It was so ridiculous how I could go without looking or even being interested in any males, to thoroughly engrossed by the magnificent beauty of this one male model that was just everywhere when I started to look.

    I was so enthralled by that utter beauty, I just didn't think there could be a male that looked so good...well, I hadn't seen any until now. Haha. So I started finding out, this is a very famous model, and his name is David Gandy. If you've ever seen any of his pictures, you know what I'm talking about. A completely unique masculinity, something like a Rhett Butler in the movie Gone With The Wind. But way better. I ended up putting a picture of him up on my computer, but my male friend had to go work at a farther place than Windsor, so he never ended up seeing it. And now that I've went through all this, I'm just not going to bother, because when I see a picture of a handsome male, like that utterly handsome David Gandy, on my computer screen, I feel embarrassed. Sort of like, geez, if someone sees this, they might think of me, haha, the same way I thought of Terry when he had that sexy female photo on his phone, and that's just embarrassing childish things, I think. But whatever. To each their own.

     So, being mezmerized by this character, because it was just shocking to see so much skill in the pictures...I mean, is this guy really that gorgeous? or is there something he knows, that he does, like those certain looks he projects at the camera, which in fact affect us when we look at it...what does he know? And I wondered what kind of art is there to being a model, a person who has to keep things really neat and tidy in order to stay supreme in the spotlight like that. Otherwise they could be dropped so easily when people are not dazzled by them. So besides being gorgeous, you'd have to know many different things, like human psychology, to stay in that kind of business.

And so I did some research on him. I listened to some video interviews. He spoke of the movie Zoolander in two that I saw, and he thought it was funny, even named a company after something like that. I remembered I saw the movie a long time ago, but I didn't quite remember what it was about. So I decided to watch it again. And I was really surprised at what I found. It's like they made the movie in a subtle way, below comprehension of most people, about this man. This David Gandy.

Oh how the pieces of the puzzle begin to fit when you have the pieces to put together. It can be intimidating too, because it's deep, and heavy.... whereas most of life is really light-like, feathery. This though, these symbols can get, like John Lennon sang....so heavy... because it takes you into your own world, the part perhaps, that you haven't looked at for a long time, or ever! Until now.

So this man David Gandy is born on Feb 19, 1980. Most people don't know about astrology, but you'd have to know about astrology to go any further, so the pieces of the puzzle can fit. You know?
February 19 is Aquarius. The year 1980 is in Chinese astrology the year of the Monkey. And the Monkey personality is the same as the Leo personality in Western astrology. And of course the Aquarius personality coincides with the Tiger personality of the Chinese tradition. Don't ask me how they came up with those two different horrorscopes, but with both having the same archetypes. That's still a a puzzle to me.

Anyway, I'm an artist, so I was studying his exquisitely handsome face with all its fascinating features, and I noticed how the left and the right side of the face had their own personality. Well the next day, after this was still up in my memory, I watched this Zoolander movie, and the dark haired guy in the movie represents the Monkey/Leo side of this man, and the blond haired guy in the movie represents his Aquarius side of the face. The strange thing I noticed though, is that the left side is suppose to be ruled by the Monkey, since that is the year...or so I thought for the longest time.... because now, in this movie, I learned that maybe I was wrong. Maybe the right side of him is the Monkey and the left side is the Aquarian, because the left side show the delicate air sign characteristics of an Aquarian sign, whereas the right side of his face show the muscular traits of a fire sign, the Leo, or Monkey. Hm. So I really stepped into a new learning experience here. I guess I was stuck in thinking this because MY left side shows my Snake characteristics, feminine, whereas my right side shows the characteristics of a Mars ruled, muscular, masculine. Hm. Maybe everyone is different. It's so strange though, to suddenly have seen this, after all this time thinking that automatically the Oriental sign will show up on the left because that's the spiritual side, and that sign represents the year...deep. Whereas the Western sign which is only the month, shallow, would show up on the right side, which is ruled by the left brain...and we all know what the left brain is...masculine, shallow, hahha. The female is the deep which is represented by the right brain which rules the left side of the body. You know? There's something about David Gandy that's really tripped me up.

Like there was a dream I had before my two sisters passed away, six months apart from each other, both of breast cancer...really stupid stuff. But they were both in that dream a few months before they both were gone from my life. My brother Anton was in it too, behind them. So my best friend, my older sister, who is the oldest, I'm second oldest of what was six, hahaha, she was the one who said to me in that dream... "wait till you see Tommy." And in that dream, this spirit being, who I don't know whether he was a man or an angel or who, I don't know, but he suddenly showed up from like a ball of light swooping down on the scene, towards me. But I woke up and that was the end of the dream. And then when we were in the hospital waiting for a room upstairs for her, I heard her say the word Tommy, and I swung round to see her talking to an orderly. Nothing made sense. I looked and looked to see who this Tommy being was. But it was like symbols everywhere. The next week she was gone. So I bought some books, and looked up Stephen King's The Tommy Knockers, but it just bored me so I never finished reading it. Yet, I think it's because I got the message that it had something to do with aliens. So I finished reading when I realized that.

That's what I mean. This being has a different arrangement of body. Hm. What could that mean? And then in the movie, there was a picture of that Aquarian style guy in a poster that had the word "Tommy" on it. And if this guy's Western personality is Aquarius, then what is he doing on the left side of the body instead of the right side? But the Monkey personality, the muscular male is on the right side, where the Aquarius would go, if he were....human?
Or is he angel?

Mh.
Complex.


But now that I think of it again, I could be wrong. Maybe the picture's I was looking at, were turned the other way around. Or maybe I just wasn't seeing clearly enough. Maybe the way the brain and body are put together are just too complex to figure out, right now, for me, so I'll just forget it. Stop thinking of it. That's all. Too complex. U know?


---------------------

Fri. April 29, 5:44am

This is so complex I've got to continue thinking about it. This man is a blessing that came into my life when it did. Thank you. I appreciate it. So anyway, I had written something in my facebook which is so connected to this stream of thought, about all these symbols oh my! And then I put an excerpt after it because it matches everything I was already thinking! And yet, tells a whoooole lot more.



“He's an Aquarian. I think Aquarians are even more beautiful than Gemini's, and oh my, even than Libra's! But each have their own unique abilities, and it's like they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder..... Yes, I guess the Aquarian holds the Key. They're not only beautiful but extremely intelligent...being the very end of the structure, the full wisdom of the three. So yea, they have it ALL, haha, and I'm in love with God. Who wouldn't notice what is absolutely "choice"? Most of the world can't be wrong. If they like it and I like it, who's to say it's other than? Hmhmhm. Oh my gawd he's so impressive. The mind flows like a stream of air, yea, like that, a breeze, hahhahaaa. -----"Physicist David Bohm believed that underlying the physical, tangible world, there was a far more mysterious, deeper order of “undivided wholeness.” He called the visible world the explicate order, and that deeper world the implicate order, and used the analogy of a flowing stream to describe his realisation of unbroken unity. On this stream, one may see an ever-changing pattern of vortices, ripples, waves, splashes, etc., which evidently have no independent existence as such. Rather, they are abstracted from the flowing movement, arising and vanishing in the total process of the flow. Such transitory subsistence as may be possessed by these abstracted forms, implies only a relative independence or autonomy of behaviour, rather than an absolutely independent existence as ultimate substances.” 

And to, continuing from that site...


"Those rather philosophical words came from Bohm’s Wholeness and the Implicate Order, which he wrote in 1980, and suggested the world of the implicate order was similar to a hologram, where the complex interference patterns appear to be chaotic and disordered to the naked eye, yet on a deeper level possess a pattern that is hidden or “enfolded” into the whole object. Bohm even suggested the universe itself was like a flowing hologram, or “holomovement,” that contained order on an implicate level. The explicate order would be the projection from higher dimensions of reality, and any apparent stability of objects and entities are really a sustained process of enfoldment and unfoldment. Nothing solid is really solid at the implicate level.


Bohm also believed there was a superquantum potential, or a higher “superimplicate” order operating in the universe, and that life and consciousness were enfolded within, with matter appearing in varying degrees of “unfoldment.” He even stated that the separation of matter and spirit is nothing but an abstraction, that the “ground is always one.”

All is Vibration

The study of music (and the patterns of sacred geometry) suggests an invisible, “implicate” vibratory nature. Sympathetic Vibratory Physics is a term assigned to a “musical universe,” an interesting alternative theory of reality proposed by Walter Russell in A New Concept of the Universe. Russell believes that there exists nothing in nature other than vibration. He attempts to create a paradigm of reality using wave and vibration theory based upon the work of John W. Keely’s concepts of a sympathetic vibration that connects all things and energies, and that the harmony of these vibrations creates what we see.
Russell and Keely suggest that music can be thought of as a model of the order found in the universe, with organised vibration or sound following principles of structure and behaviour that make sound into harmonies. These principles mimic those governing other vibratory patterns in the universe.
Take the idea that everything is the result of a vibration, and even Zero Point Energy in the quantum vacuum has been shown to “jiggle” or vibrate. Everything has its “jiggle.” We can go on to say that different things have different “chords” or “vibration signatures,” and that is what makes one thing discernible from the next. Sounds a lot like superstring theory, with tiny, vibrating cosmic strings at the very heart of existence.
Vibrations are dynamic, interacting with one another and their environment, creating different tones and chords and harmonics. In a sense, vibrations are more fundamental to reality than the tiniest subatomic particle, because in a sense, that is what the tiniest particle is… a vibration.
The most exciting thing about this invisible vibratory field, no matter what form it might take, is the potentiality it contains. Potential as a source of all other sources. Potential as a pure energy field upon which all matter is created and thrown out into the explicate order. Potential even is a doorway to other dimensions or levels of reality, where things like ghosts, UFOs and psychic abilities are the norm.

“Subquantum Kinetics” & “Morphogenetic Fields”

Physicist Paul LaViolette writes extensively about “transmuting ether” in his book, Genesis of the Cosmos: The Ancient Science of Continuous Creation. This ether, which is the basis of LaViolette’s theory of “subquantum kinetics,” is described as an active substrate that differs from the mechanical ethers once considered in previous centuries. LaViolette states, “The concentrations of the substrate composing this ether are the energy potential fields that form the basis of all matter and energy in our universe.” The ether reactions cause wave-like field gradients that emerge and form the “observable quantum level structures and physical phenomena,” including the various particles, forces, fields and electromagnetic waves.
Subquantum kinetics, which LaViolette proposes as a unified field theory that fills in the gaps conventional physics cannot, rests on the existence of this “primordial” transmuting ether present throughout space. “The transmuting ether is the wellspring of Creation,” he states, adding that were its activity to diminish, everything physical would cease to exist, coming to a state of “multi-dimensional consciousness” from which the physical universe is generated. A ground state, or Source of all Sources.
Rupert Sheldrake, biologist and co-author of The Evolutionary Mind: Conversations on Science, Imagination and Spirit refers to this vibratory field as the “morphogenetic field.” This “M-field” (and there can be many M-fields) is an underlying energy field that acts as an organising principle to give form to various levels of reality. He also suggests there is “morphic resonance,” or the resonance of memories sort of like Edgar Cayce’s “Akashic field” or the “collective unconscious” of Carl Jung. These memories shape our minds today, but subconsciously. Sheldrake, who has experimented with psychic pets and animals, theorises that the existence of an invisible field of influence, although unproven, could be the link between humans and their pets. “Morphic fields also contain attractors, which draw organisms towards future states.” This could explain how a dog might pick up a change in the morphic field that lets it know its owner is only a half block away.”
The morphogenetic field itself could be made up of “morphic wavelets” of resonating, vibratory energy that differ in scale and frequency. The wave could have a resonance that synchs up with the resonance of a pet, or a human, who then displays some “psychic” ability to predict a coming earthquake or disaster. And if they are tapping into a field that contains memories of past, present and future, a time landscape so to speak, they could access any event throughout the space/time continuum.
Obviously, it’s not that simple, or we would all be seeing ghosts, aliens, strange creatures, having precognitive dreams, major déjà vu episodes, and reading each other’s minds. But if even one small percentage of the claims of the paranormal is true, someone somehow is figuring out just how to do it.
Terence McKenna, psychedelic visionary and co-author of The Evolutionary Mind, points out: “Once non-locality is accepted, some of the things we’re interested in are permitted – telepathy, information from other worlds arriving by the morphogenetic field, and so on.” We know that experiments have proven non-locality to be a reality on the quantum level. Two particles continue to affect one another at extreme distances. The same actually happens on a macrocosmic level all the time.

The Synchronised Universe

Advanced physics tells us that an event at Point A in the universe does not cause an event in Point B to occur a little later. Actually, both events occur at the same time. Carl Jung used the term “synchronicity” to describe this same phenomenon on a human level. In his amazing book Power Vs. Force, Dr. David R. Hawkins states that a “question can’t be asked unless there’s already the potentiality of the answer… there can be no ‘up’ without an already existent ‘down’.” Synchronicities are evidence of an all-inclusive field that goes against the normal cause-and-effect rationale for events that occur that challenge our illusion of the line between subjective and objective reality.
Perhaps, the universe itself is based upon principles of synchronisation. Physicist Claude Swanson, educated at M.I.T. and Princeton, believes it is. He even believes his “synchronised universe” theory leaves the door wide open for a variety of paranormal phenomena to exist in a reality where our own matter operates in synchronised fashion with everything else.
In his book, The Synchronized Universe, Swanson points out that parallel universes superimposed upon our own can differ in phase or frequency of their synchronisation. Basically, people can only access their own universal “sheet” of existence, and thus believe that is the only one that exists. Same goes for anything moving around on all the other parallel “sheet” universes.
But alter the phase or frequency just so, and an object can disappear from one reality, and appear in another. Like a ghost.
The synchronised universe theory could explain how UFOs can appear and vanish instantly, as reported in hundreds of sightings, and how teleportation might be achieved. It could also explain the existence of “subtle energy,” which, Swanson theorises, arises from the motions coupled across the layers of parallel universes. Subtle energies, Swanson states, are the “coherent structure which crosses several of these parallel realities, and therefore is ‘higher dimensional’.”
The interesting thing about synchronisation is that it allows every particle a fundamental frequency proportional to its mass, and also explains how particles can become synchronised, like those Olympic swimmers, at small scales. This “synchronising” of matter and energy would indeed allow for paranormal events to occur, and would no doubt explain why they might occur in transient, unpredictable ways. Ghosts, out-of-body experiences, remote viewing, psychokinesis and poltergeist activity all may be the result of the synching of particles and matter between various levels of existence, creating a literal means for moving between dimensions of reality.
Swanson states, “Paranormal effects and ‘subtle energy’ cause a synchronisation across adjacent parallel universes. When this occurs, these adjacent universes become to a degree synchronised with ours. The interaction becomes more coherent, more in phase.”
When there is no synchronisation, we experience the other universe or dimension as “random noise.”
Even teleportation fits into the synchronised universe theory. Swanson points out, “The behaviour and position of matter is dependent on its radiation field, which keeps it in place, gives it inertia and allows it to interact with other matter in the universe. If we shift the phases of radiation coming into the particle and coming out of it from the past and the future, we may be able to shift its position.” This may be the key to a form of “hyperdrive” that causes teleportation.

An Explanation for Ghosts?

Physicist F. David Peat suggests that synchronicities are “flaws” in the fabric of reality, momentary fissures that offer those sensitive to them a brief peek into the implicate, underlying order of nature.
We know from the Law of the Conservation of Energy that the total inflow of energy into a system must equal the total outflow of energy from the system, plus the change in the energy contained within the system. In other words, energy never dies. It is converted into another form. Ghosts, if they represent trapped energy, may move between parallel dimensions or universes by this process of synchronisation (possibly using the ZPF as a vehicle for moving between the dimensions) and become visible in our world because they are still energy. Many ghost sightings involve balls of plasma and changes in electromagnetic field measurements, as well as visible signs of energy manipulations. Lights flicker or pop, static appears on radios and televisions, and people report the feeling of their hair rising on their skin or the back of their head. These are also widely reported elements of UFO sightings (stalled car engines, black-outs, phone interference…). Obviously, energy is present, and affecting its environment.
Again, one is reminded of music. When two or more notes are played together, they either create a beautiful harmony, or a noisy discord. The notes that work well together create a resonance. Those that don’t “make sweet music” together create a dissonance.
If paranormal events can only occur when the “right two notes are struck,” then something in the brain, or the body, is responding to those notes and “tuning in” to the phenomena that is otherwise beyond perception. All of these frequencies exist in the field, and… even our brains seem to have access to this field of all possibility.

The Brain Works Like a Hologram

Neurosurgeon Karl Pribram spent decades pondering the secrets of the human brain and memory, and eventually discovered that the brain worked somewhat like a hologram, and that when you first see something, specific frequencies resonate in the brain’s neurons, which then send information about the frequencies to other sets of neurons, and the process continues until your neurons construct an image of what you are looking at. That the brain seems to process information in wave-frequency patterns suggested that human memory could hold amazing amounts of information “in storage,” and, using the same holographic model, be able to access and recall a memory as a three-dimensional image.
The holographic model of the brain could allow for ESP and telepathy, then, by the same process, according to Swanson. “If the sender can cause energy or information to refocus at some other point in space-time using the 4-D holographic principle, then it can be received if a person is there to sense the thought-form.”
Pribram’s brain research didn’t stop with the holographic model and its implications for a variety of interesting abilities. He also showed that the brain acted like a frequency analyser that literally filters out unlimited wave information from the Zero Point Field, where all the information possible existed. This allows the mind to take and use only what it needs, and not be overwhelmed with a bombardment of unnecessary frequencies trying to compete for some “brain time.”
Think about the simple experience of déjà vu, which may be our ability to access, albeit in very small doses, glimpses of ourselves in a parallel universe or dimension, or even the ZPF. When you have déjà vu, you are remembering what is happening to you in the present moment. That doesn’t make sense. If it is happening in the present moment, how can you yet have a memory of it? But if there exist parallel universes that have “branched off” each time we made a different choice, then it makes sense that we would, in many of those universes, be doing the same exact things at the same exact time. Déjà vu may then be our successful attempts to find and synch up with another reality, even just for a minute or two. Or perhaps we are accessing the Zero Point Field, which, like Edgar Cayce’s Akashic Record, supposedly contains the memories of every thought, action or event that ever happened or will ever happen in the universe.
If déjà vu, dreams and out of body experiences, including near death experiences, allow us to wander for a while in other realities, it begs the question – why can’t we easily access these other realities all the time, any time we please? I might suggest that it is because if we could, we would go insane. Information overload. Our brains operate as information sorting machines, only bringing into our perceptive fields what we need to see, hear and know to survive, and hopefully thrive.
That does not prevent us from being able to, when we meditate or go into a trance or zone out at our computer, have a peek into other dimensions of existence.
People do this all the time when they dream, when they know who is on the phone after only one ring, when they get a “bad vibe” about a person they’ve just met. Remote viewers may be tuning into a frequency upon which the information they are either sending or receiving is naturally “broadcasting,” as a psychic might pick up on similar frequencies when doing a reading or having their own clairvoyant episode.
If paranormal elements operate on a different frequency, again we must think of the dog that hears a high-pitched whistle that is soundless to us. Many species of snake have organs that allow them to perceive the infrared range of the electromagnetic spectrum and “see” the heat of another living thing. Sharks and eels are ultra-sensitive to changes in electrical fields, and some insects can see ultraviolet light. These creatures are obviously observing things we humans simply aren’t built to observe.
Yet somewhere there are humans who can hear these whistles, and sense EMF alterations, just as there are humans that can see auras and other forms of light energy the rest of us cannot. It could just be a matter, then, of the level of one’s consciousness or perception.
Whether energy is synching up, or emerging in a coherent pattern from the ZPF, or moving along a morphogenetic field, or even floating in a sea of quintessence, there is definitely fertile, dynamic ground for the movement of that energy between our world and the world of the paranormal (which could in fact be our own world, or one parallel to ours).
We are limited to our five senses: sight, smell, sound, touch and taste. But what about this sixth sense? Perhaps that is the sense, underdeveloped in most, yet present in all, which allows us to turn on and tune in to the frequencies that reveal the other layers of existence.
I think of years ago, long before cell phones, when I owned a CB radio and loved to listen to motorists and truckers chatter. Occasionally, there would be some bandwidth cross talk from a nearby Ham radio operator. Ghosts, UFOs, and other paranormal events may be cross-talk cutting into our normal bandwidth; chatter from another dimension, or universe, or somewhere in between. We don’t normally hear it because it is usually operating on another frequency altogether, but sometimes signals get crossed. Consciousness may be the key to knowing exactly which frequency to tune into to perceive paranormal phenomena. Think about that the next time you listen to the radio.
Tune into the right frequency and you may find yourself face to face with a ghost."

Yea, cool stuff. The way complex symbolism works in life.

Oh, by the way, that Zoolander movie is totally hilarious. I see there's another one coming out. Just saw the preview, and it looks like another hilarious movie. And what else I've noticed, is that the character of the Monkey in the movie has a beard, and I see the latest pictures of David Gandy, he seems to be growing one too. Wierd, huh?

You know what? There's another strange thing about David Gandy. I think there's a clone out of him.
Because the pictures look so different from the past than the present. Some of the pictures in the past look like a more mature elegant man, whereas some of the new pictures that just came out look like a young immature kind of man. If it's not a clone then maybe he's on drugs? I don't know. Because the two just look so different from one another, even though similar, they just don't seem the same.
There's something unusual going on in this situation.
