I find the acting to be so intense you get sucked into each scene. I don’t like graphic sex scenes and there are a few. There’s not much left to the imagination at the morgue either. The costumes are gorgeous. There are some intense scenes of drug use which are very graphic and disturbing.
The Duke’s ball rivaled any historical drama depicting an aristocratic waltzing.
What I find inspiring is that Lidia Poët is able to argue before the court and not lose her composure. Having been sued by Armstrong Steel and clamming up during the American Arbitration Association’s Evidentiary Hearing held on February 4, 2025, I wish I had strengthened my throat chakra beforehand.
But what is most impressive is a scene in which Lidia is drapped in this gorgeous deep purple suit riding a bicycle. Netflix has enhanced its Digital Rights Management (DRM) and copyright protection so you can’t record even so much as a clip nor a screenshot. However, someone managed to post on YouTubeso I was able to make a 16 second clip from a clipto focus on the suit! Oh, I want this skirt suit!
Besides the color, notice her belt and how she has tiny bags hanging from it. It’s like Steampunk only it’s not. The story begins in 1883. Costume designer Stefano Ciammitti is a genius. I wish he’d make clothes for those of us who wish to wear real linen and dress like this! Women’s clothes today make us look like zombies in comparison. Hell, young people even buy denim jean’s that already have the knees slashed out!
But what if the color purple was picked because Hekate was letting us know that Lidia is an icon in the realm of liminal space and time!
“Liminal is from the Latin word ‘limen’, which means threshold. A liminal space is the time between ‘what was’ and ‘next.’ It is a place of transition, a time of waiting and not knowing the future. Richard Rohr describes this space as, “where we are betwixt and between the familiar and the completely unknown. There alone is our old world left behind, while we are not yet sure of the new existence. That’s a good space where genuine newness can begin.” Most people feel completely overwhelmed and confused when going through a major life change. They feel raw, vulnerable and uncertain. And most of us, if we’re honest, will take just about any answer to get out of the discomfort that comes with a liminal space”
Does that not perfectly describe Ms. Lidia’s effect on everyone in the film?
"I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it". excerpt from Alice Walker's, The Color Purple (Dialogue between Shug Avery and Celie, Pages 194-196)
My mother was obsessed with African violets which she kept in the bay window in the house we lived in until she developed Alzheimer’s they died.
My favorite color has been purple since I was a toddler. My late aunt Dot’s favorite color was purple. We loved to color dark purple Easter eggs. I often wear purple. I love lavender. I have several items I bought over the years that I wanted because they were purple. What I If did not know until the other day is that PURPLE is Hecate’s favorite color!
Amandeep Singh sent me an image to try to work on, but I didn’t have the right software. It’s one he uses for meditation.
Google Violet Flame Meditation and you will find more videos than you can watch in a day.
One of my favorite gifts they gave me in Berlin is this logo on a keychain I hang now from my crossfit bag.
So now that I got all that out of the way, I was scrolling through TikTok and this video started to play. My jaw dropped. I couldn’t believe it. Watch this video. This is one of those WOW “THEY DO EXIST” moments. Everyone seems to be encountering Hecate in one or another but to MEET her in person, watch the video. There is a lot to unpack.
Netlfix blacks out the screen so you cannot record even a clip. BUT I was able to take screenshots at least!
So far I have not enjoyed Season 2 of Wednesday. I hate gore and it has a LOT of gore. BUT it has one of the most clever scenes I’ve ever seen! It’s funny. Flawlessly acted. Just the right pacing for suspense. Perfect setting. Great makeup and costumes.
I loved the use of the old 1940’s typewriter! I learned on one of these! Typed my high school term papers on my mother’s old typerwriter! I did. I really did!
Edgar Allen Poe – there is a reason why Poe’s work is in this scene.
DANTE! Who doesn’t love Dante Alighieri!
Shelley! Did you ever read her work? Mary had a wicked imagination!
Dickens – not JUST the Christmas Carol!
BRILLIANT – this scene was BRILLIANT!
Oh, how I wish I lived near a university with a decent library!
Look this up if you can read Russian! I read it in translation.
Did you ever read La Divina Comedia? I tried. Ended up reading an abridged version. But the 20 Aerial Tollhouses. Now THAT’s a disturbing trip into your soul!
When I got out of high school I bought all of H.G. Wells’s book and read through all of them on semester breaks. I was not your average 20 something.
If I were back in high school, I would probably identify as Wednesday. Not the shoes, though. Probably Victorian boots. And not her diet either. But she’s a kindred spirit that’s for sure.
Back in August 2023 I wanted to see if I could get my stolen gold, silver, jewelry, and a rare Tibetan kapala skull back by programming Joshua P. Warren’s Wishing Machine at precisely 13.5 or 1:30 Sidereal Time. Alas, I got messed up and keyed in 15.5 and missed the moment. Two years later I am still waiting for the sheriffs to get the thief to work with them. The thief has had nothing but bad luck including being hit by a car and tossed up into the air and into a boulder smashing his hand. Then his hand got smashed in a car while he was driving it through the AVIS car wash in Reno, Nevada. He has been mugged, beaten, lost more jobs than he can count, and has been sick and in and out of the hospital. BUT he still doesn’t believe that stealing the gold put a curse on himself.
The corporate attorney for Armstrong Steel misrepresented the police report during the American Arbitration Association’s Evidentiary Hearing on February 4, 2025 so I submitted it as evidence in my Motion to Vacate the Award of Arbitration Procured by Fraud and Undue Means in 2025CV161 filed in the Arapahoe County Courthouse. If nothing else, the police report will now be public record for perpetuity.
Today at 12:11 pm shortly after HIGH NOON in Elko County, Nevada the New Moon enters Leo. But 12:11 pm is 5 hours 39 minutes Sidereal Time so that precise moment is fine for regular Moonology manifesting, but if I wait until 8 pm and 45 seconds, it will be the perfect moment in time to program the Wishing Machine with my New Moon check.It’s been programmed with a New Moon check since April and it came through because out of the blue I got an offer for my vacant land in Tennessee that I needed to sell to pay down debt so I could stay in my house and be protected by Nevada’s Homestead Exemption against any kind of judgement liens so Armstrong Steel can never take any more of my money from me!
VitaminCJJ’s experiment with a regular deck of cards is well worth watching!
Her abilities are quite extraordinary to begin with but her abilities increased by 66 percent! I’m just trying to take advantage of programming the Wishing Machine on the New Moon. We shall see.
By the way, I fast forwarded the video to the point I wanted to watch where she starts the experiment, got a wrong text number which is one of those scams where you text, wrong number and they try to then engage you in a conversation to prey on the elderly, glanced at the time and it was precisely 11:11.Magical numbers have always been part of my life from the time I got my first digital watch or started driving and paid attention to my odometer. Now that almost everything is digital it’s so common place I tend to just sigh and move on. Maybe I shouldstart “listening”.
“Listening”. I finally ordered a set of tuning forks to use for sound therapy. Most everything got packed and is in storage so I don’t have the singing bowls, etc. and my piano is in a warehouse in Las Vegas because I thought I was going to be moving to Tennessee and it was only going to be temporary.
So, since there is no such thing as a coincidence you might want to watch this video by CJJ.
And if you pray or do spellwork or just wish to send me energy to fight Armstrong Steel in the courts, please continue to follow and leave a comment. I hope to get my life back soon. From now until the Lion’s Gate, the energy is off the charts.
On May 31, 2025 I worked through Blind Zac The All Father’s instructions for the New Moon in Taurus. Figured all would work out. At 4 pm Pacific Time, on June 10, the day before I had to leave for Salt Lake City so I could fly to Boston, then Dublin, and then Berlin to tour the new Wooga studios,the door bell rang and it was a process server with ANOTHER Lawsuit filed by Armstrong Steel; this time for defamation and a demand for $100,000 and a court injunction to scrub my posts basically from Facebook and Substack.
I replied to 2025CV31315 with what I thought was a Motion to Strike but Colorado’s 18th Judicial Court Judge Thomas Willard Henderson, IV (yes the FOURTH) denied the motion because I didn’t cite the law in the motion. I thought I had. I resubmitted what is commonly called an Anti-SLAPP (Strategic Lawsuit Against Public Participation) and it’s now pending a response from Armstrong Steel and then I get to reply to that.I filed another motion. I asked the court to appoint me an attorney because I can’t afford the $10,000 retainer fee much less the $350 or $450 or $750 an hour attorneys charge.
Today the mail was delivered to my rural mailbox. It was dated July 17, but because I live in the middle of nowhere, it came today.The mailboxes and lockers are located in a pull off by the Spring Creek fire department 4.7 miles from my house. I only pick up my mail if I see something in the USPS Informed Delivery scanned images that arrive each day via email that is important enough for me to leave the house. I have two routes to get out of my neighborhood. One goes towards the marina and Lamoille and the other goes out to Lamoille Highway and you can turn left and head towards Elko. If I don’t HAVE to go anywhere, I don‘t.
“The motion/proposed order attached hereto: DENIED.The Court is in receipt of the attached Motion for Appointment of Counsel filed by Defendant Barbara Ruth Campbell (“Defendant Campbell”). The Civil Pro Bono Project is not available in the 18th Judicial District, nor does the 18th Judicial District otherwise have available attorneys that a judicial officer can appoint to represent civil litigants on a pro bono basis. For this reason, Defendant Campbell’s Motion is DENIED“.
This is not quite as bad as it seems. It supports all my research and hours on the phone trying to find an attorney that if you can’t afford an attorney and you’re sued, well you’re screwed. You have to represent yourself and very few people will ever even try. I’m not one of those.
I am going to order Ryan McCarl’s book, and one other book on how to argue in court and keep on fighting.
Which is why I hope that tonight I can watch Yasmin Bolland’s recording of her Dark Moon ceremonyand do some serious visualization.
So let’s begin with Zac’s latest video. He starts with talking about how he was homeless or on disability for most of his adult life and he is now living in Hawaii and although not “wealthy” has a condo with a balcony on the beach – that’s not cheap. Plus, he has several businesses. You create what you want on the New Moon and launch it on the Lion’s Gate (August 8).
Zac says your Inner ChildIS your Higher Self and the New Moon is Leo will be a rebirthing of your Inner Child/Higher Self letting the true version of yourself manifest what you want. Plus, Zac says the chart for August 8 is what’s called a Kite.
Word Press is now allowing me to link to Cafe Astrology. According to that site “The configuration of aspects formed when points of a chart form a Grand Trine, and two of them sextile a fourth point or points”. I recommend you Google Cafe Astrology and look at the examples.
At the top is Mercury Retrograde in Leo.
“As Venus travels through and leaves Gemini, and joins Jupiter in that conjunction in Cancer, it will be bending the North Node of Destiny in Pisces. Venus Bending the North Node of Destiny in Pisces only happens every 18 years.
I don’t have Pisces in any of my houses which is a tad disturbing because Zac says that’s the house which will give you insight into which direction your destiny will be found. Of course, I AM 71 years old so maybe I don’t have a destiny at this point.
Leo is in my third house and that’s where rebirthing will take place because it’s where the Lion’s Gate will manifest everything one desires using Sirius to make it instantaneous.
“The third house covers communication, such as writing, speaking, editing, research, and translation.The third house also rules code writing and digital forms—a website, app, electronic game development, social media, and podcasts. The third house also covers teaching, lecturing, and public speaking. Thinking, perception, reflection, and the gathering of facts all come under the third house.
The third house rules negotiation and is the home of all contracts and agreements, journalism and documentary work, and the reporting of news. This house is based in facts. (Other houses in the horoscope cover creativity and imagination.) The ancient astrologers felt the ability to communicate clearly was so important, they designated the topic to an entire house of the horoscope, equal to the other houses”.
Considering the fact that I have asked Senator Catherine Cortez Masto and Senator Jackie Rosen to have me testify on the Senator Floor for passage of the Forced Arbitration Injustice Repeal Act and the Federal Anti-SLAPP Act, I guess this is a good thing.
Cancer is in my 2nd house that’s where love and abundance will come from.The second house, which is also called house of value, is all about possessions, money, material things, earnings and expenditures. It signifies the way someone attracts or repels money, and also the way that he or she chooses to spend it. One’s values on ownership is also expressed here, as well as one’s system of values. The second house is traditionally ruled by Taurus and its ruling planet Venus (see last link in the reading list).
Um, I will keep my mouth shut because I don’t want to jinx this.
Pay close attention to what Zac says about the star Sirius.
The next video to watch is one by Joey Yap uploaded on July 20, 2025. Click on the description of the short and read “Not everything that looks “bad” is actually working against you. In Feng Shui, we’re often told to avoid the negative stars. But sometimes, those are the ones that shake things up just enough to create real change. Sometimes, the real issue is misalignment between your space, energy, and goals. This training helps you get them working together again”.
Tomorrow on the New Moon on plan on clicking and watching his free training.
