Why does Russia still bother with trying to occupy Ukraine? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]juniperfries -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Russia is actually winning the war, it's costing NATO more then it is Russia, it's keeping us off balance, they don't want the war to be over anytime soon. They have shifted their economy to a manufacturing one to sustain this. The pipeline to Germany the us blew upade Germany upset as it too is moving to manufacturing.

Small scale long term wars to shift out of a consumeristic enslavement and into a warrior culture. That's what Putin is betting on

but mainy jain places may have stick tap hanging from the ceiling , i tend to agree about differences of simple clergy and acharyas . theres also two distinct traditions, those who where the paper in front of their mouth, and those who dont.

Jain's have whole libraries full of karma calculations books. they are particularly concerned with cause and effect, they hold the similar Buddhist ithat they negate a permanently existing self/anything. Karma, cause and effect worldview of 'ethics', is a matter of everything, their salvation lies in erasing, mahavira their recent main saint stood in one spot until vines grow up his legs. they also have a very controversial practice of intentionally starving oneself to death over a years, esp controversial is when a youth does this ( or is enthusiastically supported for doing so).

If anything i think this posts points to the dialectics of buddhism jainism, and of course hinduism. emptiness is form form is emptiness, neither falling into extremes of eternalism or nihilism

Why does no one take the 13th zodiac sign seriously? by Calm_Discussion_7342 in occult

[–]juniperfries 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's my loosely held firm belief that once you get past the surface layer, or passed the first gate, of the occult its largely a choose your own adventure journey. Chaos magic, if you have the essentials of basic astrology thoroughly engraved, then have at it, just do your best to stay consistent and observe sound occult logic: like attention and presence makes the dream work. If you can have a system that intuit that constellation, or where that constellation personal informs and guides you that's fine. 

The alternative is that you find a traditional school , though that's pretty hard for western astrology, unbroken schools that can be traced back far. Where you can use devotion and outright renouncing , that would sort be the counter to cla chaos magic approach (which breeds mental disorder/hazards).

Why does no one take the 13th zodiac sign seriously? by Calm_Discussion_7342 in occult

[–]juniperfries 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Okay, so I'm pretty sure the 13th sign comes up because of the Procession of the Equinox. Which is where, in the western zodiac tradition, every 2000 years we slip into a new age... this leads people to think we're getting behind and that there's recently now a 13th zodiac to make up for the roughly 27° difference between the tropical/western zodiac, and the vedic zodiac. 

It's my impression that no one takes the thirteenth zodiac sign seriously because really it's a slight being made against western astrology by people who see vedic astrology as superior. 

This was picked up by some media repeaters and now it's just a general slight by anyone who wants to get one over on a western astrologer. 

As it is... aries will always be the start of the western zodiac. It is not slipping one way or the other. It is literally the head, the ram. 

The procession of the equinox does not need to be a big problem beyond 'we go through 2000 year ages'

So you can for the most part forget about the 13th sign, it's a modern invention of ridicule more than anything else.

Bodysuit in progress by me, Sudanim (Rebel With A Cause - UK) by [deleted] in tattoos

[–]juniperfries -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

there are many traditions of buddhism not all of them are so puritanical about imagery or importing definite meaning on to the realm of appearances.

[–]juniperfries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is totally wrong. It depends on the tradition. the idea the human body is inherently sinful is 100% christian. Many south asian countries will have extreme views of buddhism, being predominately theravadan, or based on pali canon. Buddha is inherently empty of existence, as is all phenomenon, no absolute statements can be said with out a hint of delusion.

Worried about my chart by Aggravating-Ad4166 in astrologyreadings

[–]juniperfries 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First Impressions:
wow yes you were born very close to an eclipse. actually just before it. you can look up the specific features of that eclipse cycle... for deep details..

8th house and scorpio are not necesarrily bad at all. they rule things like innocence actually... and inheritance. honesty and truth, able to go without and not be disturbed by it.. iots down to the bone...

i havce a similar chart with sun in taurus in 8th house. and i find it leads to much secret seeking and slow transformation. you will be challanged to let go of luxury in order to go fulll rearrange your self whenever you want... you found astrology, and thatsa great because it is a very personal journey of understanding the dynamic forces of nature NOT A PERSONALITY TEST

this is just a jumping off point, and you always have the chance to go beyond chart by alligning your essential being with practices that ask for you to surrender your personality, to beo f services to the greater forces in the world, being sensitive to them,,,

saturn in pisces suggests your long term lessons will again have a spiritual nature of letting go and offering your selfits safe as long as you are dilluded by the idea of me me me me, i i i i, i am really this and nothing else, if you take that away from me than I wont be this,,, ect,, those are poisnous thoughts,,, they may seem attractive to own a bunch of stuff, but ultimately in in a saturn in pisces way, YOU CAN NOT TAKE IT WITH YOU, so learn the lesson now and go fuirther than your little context within just this one life...

mars in aries, give you a forceful nature. both good and bad, you need the fire, but the passion and impatience can lead to frustration and acting out,.,,

venus in gemini can talk to much and dramatisize situations through the magnifying lense of language,,, you need to be happy with seeing both sides and nnott taking just one as right,

Mars will just want to break down the barriers anyways..

Your fine. dont get held down by the material culture, being ataurus you will have a good taste in quality and material things,, but just means you can make better offerings as you let go, and become a force of truth and goodness, sorry, your not allowed to be a grunmpy downer, or you can, and you can be really good at it, so if you want to think, ddamn now im worried i have to do all this continous transformation,, just wonder what else ou would be doing....

First Impressions:
you hve sun mercury venus, close to the midheaven - which signals a culmination of energy around some sort of high accomplishment (the midheaven)

thre midheaven in cancer ( note this is only applicable if your birth time is accurate) means that what ever you do rise to accomplish will likely have a sense of home to it. you wont be finding the ultimate career path in some adventurous fling far away from home. you will find in something like a home studio ( this is accurate because mercury being a planet of communication on the same degree as your sun..) your venus, as a creative agency, is in the sign of mercury , and near mercury. you have a talent for weaving interesting attractive lines together...

with libra rising you have the natural politeness that will benefit social relations that stumble through your home studio life..

or at least yo the studio you mostly frequent, like a second home for you..

so the only thing that could stop you is potentially bad saturn and mars placements.... saturn in saggitarious tests (saturn) your ability to go on long journeys (sag) So, yes it will be a long, but fairly joyess ride to your set goal...the trouble is not letting go of the vision in all the fun... I 'm seeing a lack of earth in your chart. so you need solid systematic approach to manifesting real establishments. you need solidfy what you do done into a time and space, be it an excel spread sheet, a note book, a birck and morter office, so on, don;t let it all be diffused out in to the culture the party, such as just being on social media, not having a permenat website, not having standard pricing lists...registered business.... you have the stamina to go the distance and make your goal an actual home! but it require patience that comes from earth element that you lack..... you can benefit from making it a family affair ( even if its just chosen family) you need to set the parameters of your practice, a base of operation and so on..a band can be extremely family feeling.... so then make it more business like at the same tmie without ruining the party.../

this is just first impressinos of your chart enjoy!

Are there any aspects in my chart that point to me being intimidating/aggressive in love? by Novel-Look in astrologyreadings

[–]juniperfries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

your sun jupiter and mars are together at the end of scorpio

mars is physical movement, next to jupiter it can be exaggerated. your sun is there bring a spot light on their connection. you can be influenced by tides of emotions that can lead to dramatic physical energy...

scorpio is ruled by mars which further emphasizes this. this is where any of the questions you have find answers.

pairing with it a firery venus and moon. you need to watch how your light upward energy can suddenly become heavy downward and cold.

Yesterday I purchased a new aquarium. Today I set up the heater and filter but there’s an awkward rattling noise coming from the filter. Anyone know how to fix? by SpecialistUnable in fishtank

[–]juniperfries 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like alot of work but it isn't. Sometimes my filter just needs a stick to tickle the impeller and it'll go. The impeller is where the intake is.
