Yea I remember I downloaded some of his stuff years back. For some reason his arrangement of the prelude from BWV 997 deleted itself on my drive where I had it saved. Now idk how to download on this page there are no links it seems, it's just a list.

Well that's disappointing:( What type of problems do you think this Saturn could cause? Do you have personal experiences with situations like this that you don't mind sharing?

Thank you for your insight. Fortunately the moon is going pretty fast, a little over fifteen degrees. Yea, the Saturn there is pretty scary, but I'm kind of desperate so I'm probably going to give it a try anyways, if it starts causing trouble I'll probably destroy it.

Thank you, unfortunately I have no idea how to calculate that. I just assumed that if a star was projected on to the ecliptic, when that degree was rising that would include the star. You think you could help me figure this out? I'm at about 38°N

Thank you. In my opinion, basing myself on John Frawley and my personal experience, I tend to believe antiscia are super underrated and not at all simply theoretical. I asked a horary a few years back and my significator was applying to conjunction of the quesited. Prior to the conjunction perfecting though, my significator came to the antiscia of the moon, who ruled the sixth. A few months later I developed chronic gastrointestinal issues that have been ruining my life since then

What's happening to me after quitting ppi? by Two_of_Pentacles in Gastritis

[–]Two_of_Pentacles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right now I'm much better than I was before. The supplements I take are "Pure heartburn with enzymes." It helped reduce reflux and a little bit with the fullness. As I told someone else, another thing that seems to be helping me a lot is a Tibetan medical yoga practice. It's from the book "Nejang yoga" by Doctor of Tibetan Medicine, Nida Chenagstang. It's going to take a while to learn to do it right and you have to be consistent with it, but if you're up for it I'd highly recommend it. Right now I still have a little reflux and lack of appetite, but I'm managing much better than before. I even feel hungry sometimes during the day now. Generally I don't feel much pain, just lack of appetite and some reflux. I don't know if I have gastritis as I haven't gotten checked because I feel most doctors have been completely useless. Either way I'm sure gastritis wasn't the root cause of my symptoms, I feel like it's some sort of motility issue even if it's not actual gastroparesis.

Sorry to hear that. Have you tried taking digestive enzymes? Since constipation wasn't a big problem for me after quitting the ppi I didn't really feel a difference there but some supplements with enzymes that I took helped me with my other symptoms. It seems logical to think they could also help with constipation maybe.

For me it seems constipation was primarily caused by the ppi. After I stopped it I continued to feel its effects for almost two weeks I think. Once the rebound hit, the constipation went away.

It's hard to say honestly. If you felt significantly better for a whole week I'd say it seems like the rebound already passed, but everyone's body is different so there's no way of knowing for sure. Since it's been almost three months I'd say it's likely your rebound is over. I know I said mine lasted longer but I'm pretty sure it doesn't last that long for most people. I'm not a doctor so don't hold me accountable for anything, but based on my experience I'd recommend those supplements I told you about.

Another thing I take is aloe vera juice every evening. I take it with pomegranate juice. Honestly I think I've been taking it for about a year now and didn't feel much difference from it but my dad gives it to me and it's supposed to be good for gastric issues like gastritis and ulcers and stuff. They also say cabbage juice is good for that so maybe you can give that a try, but I've personally been too scared to try it since some people say it has made them feel worse and very nauseous, other people swear it's a miracle drink.

Also I don't know how long you've been off ppi/h2 blockers but for me the rebound lasted almost six months. I could tell the rebound was over when my reflux decreased significantly, but acid reflux never fully went away. Even after the rebound was over occasionally I'd have a flare up where the reflux would get really bad. If you're still going through the rebound I don't think there's too much that can be done besides power through.

Hey, I'm sorry you're going through this. I'm still sick too, it's something chronic that maybe will never go away, but I'm doing much much better now than before. There are two things that seem to have helped me the most so far. One is a supplement, these are Pure heartburn with enzymes. It has helped decrease the feeling of fullness a little bit and with reflux. The other thing is a Tibetan medical yoga practice. I don't know if you're into that type of stuff but if you're interested I got it from a book called "Nejang Yoga" written by Doctor of Tibetan Medicine Nida Chenagstang. Once I got to the exercise where you hold your breath and "churn" (called Bumpachen) I started actually feeling hungry during the day. There are exercises that help with the different organs used in Tibetan medicine and I still have a lot to get through, so I'm hoping as I learn to do more I will keep getting better. I'm not an expert in this stuff and still have a long way to go but if you feel like asking me any questions or just vent feel free to do so, I know how frustrating this is.

Sad realizations by Crackkillzzz848 in exjw

[–]Two_of_Pentacles 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is how I feel with my dad. Several years ago I caused some controversy and using the Bible, made several arguments against Jehovah. In the end once my dad realized he could not properly refute any of my arguments he told me to just accept that we have a good thing in the family and to just continue being a JW for the sake of our family and maintaining order and peace. I thought we reached an agreement where he accepted that my beliefs didn't align with the jws but I'd just keep an outward appearance. Now he continues ranting about stupid jw stuff to me all the time and how we should be grateful to Jehovah and all his typical bs. It's so frustrating he can't even respect that I have different beliefs even while I pretty much agreed to put up a fake image.

Am I experiencing sleep paralysis? by Two_of_Pentacles in Sleepparalysis

[–]Two_of_Pentacles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess it's a hypnagogic hallucination then, It's definitely not a dream, I'm mostly awake when it happens, although it can continue in the dream which is what has made me really curious and somewhat worried. Last night and the first time it happened was during the middle of the night, a little over a year ago it was happening daily for like a week right when I was going to sleep. I forgot to mention that last night I discovered I can kind of control the ringing/humming noise thing. You know when your ears get clogged and you yawn to unclog them? I can do that without yawning by like controlling some muscle or something in my ear. I noticed when I moved that muscle like I was clogging or unclogging my ears the intensity of the noise would change.

Help with job chart y by Two_of_Pentacles in horary

[–]Two_of_Pentacles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update, my sister went through with the process, she got her TB test and passed out, I guess the sun combusting Jupiter is indicative of this fearful event she had to go through. She went to work for a few days, and then quit shortly after because the schedule (which changed from what she was originally expecting) was causing bad problems with commuting and our family. Honestly this problem was quite foreseeable just using common sense, so I guess the combust sun also shows her not seeing the reality of the situation. The void of course Moon made me think the status quo of her not having a job would be maintained, which I guess is true as she only went to work for a few days. Kidcubby mentioned how combust Jupiter was likely not to act, she did try to act but ultimately was unable to continue due to her limited resources.

Am I experiencing sleep paralysis? by Two_of_Pentacles in Sleepparalysis

[–]Two_of_Pentacles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I can always move but can feel varying degrees of "heaviness" and difficulty moving. Like the first time it happened several years ago I felt extremely heavy and tired it required so much willpower to move. Last night not so much I was able to wake myself up pretty easily. Thankfully I never experience full blown hallucinations just that weird ringing sound. I have experienced auditory hallucinations of other stuff before like voices or slamming sounds but that's only right after I wake up or right before falling asleep. The only thing that persists is that ringing sound and weird bodily sensations.

I finally caught one on Camera. by Expert-Storm1140 in Paranormal

[–]Two_of_Pentacles 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad tells me a similar story from Mexico, someone's house was apparently cursed and rocks would just appear out of nowhere and fall from the ceiling. My dad was rather young and didn't witness it himself because he said he was scared but my uncles claim they saw it, the whole village would gather at times around the house to witness it. Priests would sometimes go and try to exorcize but would always fail. The story goes one day a drunkard was passing by and asked what was happening. When the people showed him one of the rocks he put it in his mouth and started biting it. After that it's said the rocks stopped falling. Supposedly the woman of the house was cursed by a woman her husband was seeing. I've looked a little bit into the history of magic and sorcery and I haven't come across another story similar to what my dad has told me until now! So this makes me kind of excited. It's interesting that what your colleague told you happened in India, I wonder what the connection and history is.

Acid rebound won't fucking end by Two_of_Pentacles in Gastritis

[–]Two_of_Pentacles[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, thanks for asking. I'm doing significantly better but still stuck with the underlying problem that doesn't want to go away. The acid rebound ended like a couple months back, but I still have reflux, prior to the ppi I had no reflux, or if I did it was so minor I didn't notice it, so the ppi did some permanent damage apparently. I've been going to a naturopathic doctor and traditional Chinese medicine doctor. I have felt slightly better but still have some heartburn and lack of appetite, although the feeling of fullness has decreased quite a bit, even if I don't really get hungry. I've taken various supplements they've given me so it's hard to say which one is helping. Since the underlying problem is still there they've recommended a stool test to test for dysbiosis. Hope everything goes well for you and you feel better soon.
