About meHow many Labels can you fit into a box?
Astrologically Speaking my Sun sign is Leo and my Moon is Cancer, In the chinese version I was born in the year of a Goat.
I am a Practicing Shaman, and an aspiring artist/writer, having just resently completed my first book: Reflections a book of questions. At the moment I am quite busy working on several projects and collaborations that should have some interesting results. Trying to fit that around my Full time jobs is a challenge, but something that most people face to some degree or another.
As a Discordian pope I vouch that I am not a cabbage, or rather that I do not seem to be a cabbage but that could be relative to the meaning you assign to the word cabbage ;)
I am under the illusion that I am a multi-layered, multi-personality entity that is run by an uneasy consenus of different drives, motivations and programming, or perhaps not ;)
Does anyone read all these?
Do they ever contain any real information, or do people use them to weed out whether the person is a complete ?
lol I think I'm starting to get off the point...
About my librarywill probably be quite eclectic, probably will mostly be of an occult/entheogen range though.

you will greet yourself arriving at your own door, in your own mirror,
and each will smile at the other’s welcome, and say,
sit here, eat.
You will love again the stranger who was yourself.
Give wine, give bread.
Give back your heart to itself,
to the stranger who has loved you all your life,
whom you ignored for another,
who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,
the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.
from Sea Grapes by Derek Walcott
