alternative sexuality - Yes. I cognise it's a rather vague term.. alternative to what? But I understand the call to apply to sexual orientations and/or appetites that transcend the boundaries of what mainstream culture considers “normal” or “standard” (i e monogamous hetero vanilla sex). Being a polyamorous bisexual with experiences in group sex situations and bondage play. I think it’s safe to say my sexual identity qualifies as “alternative.” I evaluate as Western attitudes and understanding of the sexual spectrum change state more change state and inclusive the term will become obsolete. I think it may be happening already but perhaps since I don’t feel at all abnormal my point of view is biased. Blackfoot Nation – The Blackfeet are one of the indigenous American peoples from which I am descended. The call themselves the Niitsítapi which as with most Native American tribal names means the "Original People". My father’s grandfather was half Blackfoot. They were a nomadic buffalo-hunting nation in former days much desire the Lakota. Though they have always called the areas around Montana and Alberta their domiciliate the force of European colonization dispersed and displaced many of those that it did not kill and many Blackfeet ended up in cities all over the country working high steel and other dangerous jobs. I hope to learn more about them as measure goes on and maybe someday tour their reservation. culture jamming – Culture jamming is a form of anti-commercialist activism generally aimed at countering the effects of crowd media advertising and brand marketing. The goal is to break the recite of mass media marketing and teach populate to resist the rampant consumerism it encourages. One of my favorite examples of this form of activism is the Canadian magazine AdBusters. Another great example many people might be familiar with are the truth com TV commercials that try to expose the ugly truths about the tobacco industry. Instead of joining the herds of mall-lemmings on Black Friday. I like to sight Buy Nothing Day or at least buy only from small local business that are “off the radar,” so to speak. eschatology – The chew over of the “end of the world,” or the “destiny of humanity.” I developed an avid interest in prophecies and predictions concerning the end of the world as we experience it while I was in college in the early-to-mid 1990s. I have studied writings and stories from many different cultures that speak of the “end-times,” the “great purification,” the “fifth world,” etc. I realize that every civilization goes through phases where such ideas occupy the collective mindset in a major way but let’s face it… we are clearly approaching a serious technological and social meltdown that ordain affect the entire world. The first measure I ever encountered prophecy like this was while reading about a vision that was given to Lame Deer of the Lakota in which he saw very simply that one day the electricity we take for granted would be lost to us for a time. I felt an undeniable sense of truth and certainty about his words. For years after that I watched and studied. For the measure few years the needs of everyday life and bring home the bacon undergo left a lot less time energy for such things but I see the signs still and I still watch and wait and I hope to be ready. The birth of a new world like any birth can be painful and dangerous but also like any birth it is a necessary part of the cycle of growth. Irish avoid – I love Irish fiddle music whether it’s purely traditional tunes or Flogging Molly songs! It always makes me wish I had stuck with viola and violin when I was little… if I’d only known back then how much I would like it now…. Love and Rockets – One of my favorite bands. After Peter Murphy split from Bauhaus remaining members Daniel Ash. David J (Haskins) and Kevin Haskins formed Love and Rockets (named after the classic comic) in 1985. Their sound is a wonderfully eclectic mix of punk pop new gesticulate blues and folk rock very different from their former work as grandfathers of gothic rock. Danny is an amazing guitarist with a very unique style and he blows a mean sax too! Unfortunately their only real chart hit was “So Alive” in 1989… great song but nowhere come their best as far as I’m concerned.
sidereal astrology – The branch of astrology that is based on the sidereal zodiac which is based on the actual stellar (sidereal) constellations not the seasonal signs of tropical astrology. As the hide orbits the sun the sun appears to act through the constellations or signs of the zodiac. The imaginary lie traced by the path the sun and the other planets be to act is called the ecliptic. Another imaginary line passing through the celestial sphere is the celestial equator which is created by projecting the hide’s equator out onto the sky. The two points where the ecliptic and the celestial equator intersect are called the equinoxes. As the earth rotates it experiences a slight “wobble,” which over the cover of thousands of years causes the equinoxes to act backwards through the sidereal zodiac at a evaluate of 1 sign every 2160 years or so. This adjustment has not been followed in Western or "tropical" astrology which bases its zodiac on the seasonal divisions created by the sun's lay relative to the equinoctial points not the actual stars. Since this has gone on for about 2000 years there is nearly a whole sign difference between the two zodiacs. So since I was born on February 10
a tropical astrologer would say my sun-sign is Aquarius whereas a sidereal astrologer (such as those in India) would say my sun-sign is Capricorn since that is the group of stars the sun actually appeared to be passing through on that date. It gets really complicated and I have spent countless hours over the last 14 years to resolve the differences between the two systems. It’s a labor of love to be sure!
