April Amusings - 2026

Hello, gonna try again, just a monthly post for whatever you wanna talk about without having to start a new thread.

So…I am watching Ancient Aliens and they are talking about Nazca line, Egyptian heirogoyphics….and the latter, really caught my attention. I have always been interested in the Egyptian “mysteries”; now, today, watching this…heiroglyphics sound like Tarot Cards. Imagery that transcends spoken language….if this is so….why has it not been “cracked” yet.

Just thought…..

I remember reading like 50 years ago somewhere that Tarot was created in Egypt, and carried

out by Israel and an offshoot of them Roma (Romai) made it survive. It is a book without binding,

and the creators knew and counted on them being used for gambling and divination,

it was a survival strategy. Is it not ‘cracked’? So many books and insights abound!

I think that as long as any topic, especially ancient “mysteries” provokes enough interest to maintain an element of clickbait, the mystery will never be solved. Hieroglyphics are the direct traceable ancestor of most of today’s living written languages, and the journey from there to here is an interesting one, but sadly not interesting enough to have the clickbait quality. The mystery that I find most interesting is quantum physics. I sense a rant coming on so I’ll sign off for now. Hugs and blessings!

Aww, I was hoping this was going to be the “April Fools” topic. :zany_face:

Interesting thoughts on Tarot. I had no idea the history went back that far. I had the impression it was solely a medieval invention.

I’ve been super busy this week, that’s why I’ve been absent for a bit. My studies have also gotten very intense. You know what they say about rabbit holes? My experiences have felt more like dropping into a cosmic ocean with all the mind-bending required to make one question the nature of life, death and reality. This clip isn’t a bad representation:

If I hadn’t had any prior experience working in altered mental states, I think I would’ve gone very mad already with my new practice. As they say, “timing is everything.” (I say thinking of Shiva, the f***ing time-lord himself.) The cyclicality of my life has become hilarious! Well played, my lords, well played. :stopwatch: :thinking: :joy:

Sorry for the rambling. Cheers everyone. I may be in and out for the rest of the week. :bell:

Wacky Wednesday Wonderful Witches,

Just a rant…my husband left yesterday for his family. After being pissed that he did not…take your pick…Yeah, he disconnected the TV and he knows that I am not savvy enough to turn it back on…(BASTARD).
But, since this is a “general” page for SH***

Well, I actually FEEL BETTER that he is not here!!! Is that a sign? Or just relief at not having to try to live a lie?

You know, at this point, I don’t really care anymore…“get me outta here”.

Wow!! Just had an encounter with my dog, and looking into her eyes…she told me to calm down and WAIT!!!

Yeah, a shelter dog knows all about waiting.

I need to “excuse me”…life here at home has been in Upheaval for a while.

Witchy Wednesday again,

I think I am DONE!

I may be mistaken, I’m old, but don’t you still have kids at home?

Why would he disconnect the TV? Unless he also took the cable,

should be easy to google/youtube how to do that. Peace. :people_hugging:

Well, I’m a techy nerdy guy, but most ‘baby-boomers’ aren’t but rely on their kids for

‘tech support’. If you can’t find the manual, you or them can google the PDF easy.

They can help you, what are kids for? Then when he gets home it’s sweet revenge. :wink:

Seems like a very eventful day. Hope you are ok.

You do you, Lady Gene!

Having him gone has got to be highly cathartic. Often it’s when we have distance from the problem that we can see things in true clarity. If you need to take time away from here, I understand 100%! It’s always beneficial to take care of yourself! Maybe your kids can help. :people_hugging: Cheers. :white_heart:

Frightful Friday Wren,

Thank-you, I was coming in today to say a little “farewell” for some time. This home situation has me literally sick. I’ve been in bed since Tuesday, and usually my nerves do not get to me. I just need some time to “detox”
