Genuine Friendship

My car broke down on me last week, and I'm glad that my job is close by that I can walk to work. So, for four days I didn't have to catch a bus to take babygirl to school and then come way back on my side of town to go to work and then do it all again just to go get her. She stayed with grandma. My job from my house is two miles away, so I walked it to and from. Walking doesn't bother me I'm used to it just ddon't do it much since I've had the car. Well on the way to work one morning I'm enjoying my walk to work, and I noticed a red truck slow down and the guy turned his truck around and got out and said, 'Hi my name is Lorenzo and I thought you where so attractive I wanted to give you my number. You got a boyfriend.' Now why does this only happen when I'm walking and not driving? I told him my name and told him no I didn't have a boyfriend. Flattered by the attention. Made my day a little brighter. I took his number and still have it in my purse. Have not called him yet. I appreciated the way he got out of his truck and spoke to me, I don't like guys who talk to you from there car, makes the whole meeting feel cheap. Nice looking man in his late 30's early 40's.

So, why have I not called this man? Well, I'm in transition with my life spiritually right now, putting together my poetry book, and the last thing I need is a brother to throw me off my transition. I don't need a boyfriend, I just need a friend, platonic. That word just hurt alot of men's ears. Platonic. Yeah, I said it and I meant it. When I'm ready to hook up with someone I need a MAN, not a boyfriend, don't have time to play with anybody. Just need someone here right now who is on the same vibration and wave link that I am, who will be here for me to talk too when I need to talk, scream , cuss, cry, whatever it may be. I LOVE men, but I have to focus on me, and babygirl, and friends are all that I need at this point right now. Lorenzo was looking for a girlfriend, because he kept asking me did I have a boyfriend.

Second, I'm scared. I've been married several times, so what I know is being married. It's been a long time since I did this dating thing, and at this point and time really don't want too. I rather have a genuine friendship with a guy, if that still exist, and get to learn about him that way, then to date him. I've always thought of dating as being really superficial. When the time is right things will work itself out for me, it always does.

Unmasked - Imani Muhammad

I try to write about things other than love
Trying to stay away from love
I’m still looking for someone to ignite that true passion that is locked within me
Holding back unshed tears from heartbreaks past
While I keep reminding myself of the lesson from each relationship
Because if I let the tears fall they would begin to heal a wounded heart
I can’t take the pain from the love that I gave that was misused and ill placed
I should cry
I know I should cry
But I can’t take anymore unbearable pain
So, I throw up shields or should I say facades that mask the pain
Then I met you and became consumed with your energy of visions and dreams that confused me
And then you perplexed me more by referring to me as ‘your like my better half ‘
We just met and yet I feel in tune and locked to your rhythm
Your rhythm of energy
Now finding myself helping to heal your hurt soul
But in dreams years ago
I

SAW

YOU

Or at least I think
Feeling connected and at one with you
Opening up my wounds and facades
Loving how you call me Queen
Unmasking the pain
Healing the wounds with salted tears

What is Astrology?

Astrology one of the oldest forms of science there is in regards to learning and studying the universe in relation to us. Astrology is linked back to Greece as the beginning of astrology when in actuality astrology goes back to Sumer, now Iraq. Astrology was the means used in calculating time as well as being used as a star map of the positions of the planets. The twelve zodiac signs came to be out of the twelve surrounding countries around ancient Sumer. Astrology starts back with the http://xfacts.com/updates/planetx2008.html"> Anunnaki who taught the Sumerians the ancient form of astrology. We have only the 12 constellations that we are familiar with, but there is a 13th constellation that goes by the name http://lightworkers.org/blog/90851/so-13th-sign-zodiac-ophiuchus">
Ophiuchus, named after the Egyptian Imhotep. The symbol of the constellation is a man holding a serpent. Imhotep was a physician which is what the snakes on the Caduceus represents that our medical profession uses today.

Astrology and Astronomy where once considered one and the same since they both dealt with the stars and the universe. According to Encarta World English Dictionary the definition of astrology is the, “study of planets and human behavior: the study of the positions of the Moon, Sun, and other planets in the belief that their motions affect human beings.” According to Online Etymology Dictionary astrology is defined as, “late 14c., from astrologia,” from Greek astrologia “telling the stars,” from astron “star” (see astro-) + -logia “treating of,” comb. Form of logon “one who speaks (in a certain manner).” Originally identical with astronomy, it had also a special since of “practical astronomy, astronomy applied to prediction of events.” This was divided into natural astrology “the calculation and foretelling of natural phenomenon” (tides, eclipses, etc.), and judicial astrology “the art of judging occult influences of stars on human affairs” (also known as stromancy, 1650s). Differentiation between astrology and astronomy began late 1400s and by 17c. This word was limited to “reading influences of the stars and their effects on human destiny.” Astrological is recorded from 1590s.”

In astrology each cycle or age is 2150 years before one cycle/age ends and another begins. We have left the age of Pisces and have entered into the age of Aquarius. Pisces represented the fish, I AM while the age of Aquarius is the age of I Know, the water bearer. The pouring forth of knowledge. The constellations are the star maps that ancient civilazations used and one that some still use such as the Dogon in Africa. It is the alignment of the stars that have lead to the phrase, “As Above So Below”.

In some religions it may seem to have picked up an bad reputation as being “evil” when Christianity and Islam are actually books of astronomy and astrology. “Berose an astrologer from Chaldea spread astrology throughout http://www.destinytarot.com/articles/astrology_and_religion.htm”> Greece. In Greece astrology was one with religion. It was later on that the Christian church fought hard to separate astrology and religion.

There are many places in the Quran and the Bible which speak of astrology, so how can it be perceived as being wrong or “evil” when astrology/astronomy are used in these books. The Bible Genesis 1.14, Job 38:32, Numbers 9:2. In the Quran Surah 67:5, Surah 16:16, Surah 67:5, Surah Yunus: 101. These are a few verses of the signs of astrology in the Bible and the Quran. As Above So Below. Our ancestors where guided by the night sky.
