Sith and Jedi Codes The Sith and Jedi codes are supposed to be opposite sides of the same coin. In truth if you look at them as explained below they are. Where the Jedi value essentially stillness the Sith value action. This is different than what was my original understanding of the differences. My Original Understanding Original understanding was that the Sith were fueled by anger and hate. This understanding is from the observation of the characters in the Star Wars movies. In the movies characters are encouraged to use their anger and hatred in order to convert them to the Sith way. Also in the movies the Sith are the antagonist with the characters who oppose them as the protagonist. The New View But not all emotion is negative. Emotions such as love and happiness are positive forces. Instead of creating rage fueled monsters or dictators; I wonder if the conversion to the Sith Path was done by embracing Love and Happiness would have different results. However by the tim...

Around the fall of 2008 I had a dragon pulling out of a dive breathing fire that turns into a phoenix tattooed to my back. This is another of my “Warning Label” tattoos. The dragon totem brings magic and balance into your life. When the dragon spirit guide comes into your life, it wants you to get in touch with your psychic nature. The dragon asks you to view the world through the window of mystery and wonder. [1] The most common message a Dragon totem carry to us is a need for strength, courage, and fortitude. Dragons are also messengers of balance, and magic – encouraging us to tap into our psychic nature and see the world through the eyes of mystery and wonder. More specifically, Dragons are the embodiment of primordial power – the ultimate ruler of all the elements. [5] Dragon symbolism and meaning also encompasses the primordial natural forces on all planes of existence, longevity and the most earliest of magicks some of which have been lost to time. The never ending batt...

Yes I know the correct spelling ... Around the fall of 2008 I had a dragon pulling out of a dive breathing fire that turns into a phoenix tattooed to my back. This is another of my “Warning Label” tattoos. The phoenix portion of the tattoo is the picture for the blog: PheonixRysen.blogspot.com The mythical phoenix animal totem is the keeper of the fire in all of creation. It represents transformation, death, and rebirth in its fire. As a powerful spiritual totem, the phoenix is the ultimate symbol of strength and renewal. As both a fire and solar symbol, the phoenix animal guide is symbolic of the sun, which “dies” in setting each night only to be reborn in rising the next morning. [1] In this sense, it never truly dies; rather, it is an immortal creature continually rising from the ashes. All of its attributes stay on theme with these ideas. In addition to the above mentioned traits of power, transformation, rebirth and life, the phoenix spirit totem is also widely regarded a...

I had my first tattoo drawn from a picture of an emperor scorpion and placed on the back of my left shoulder around the time of spring in 2008. It is one of what I call my "Warning Labels" and I later found out that it is a rather common occurrence for those with the sun sign of Scorpio to have some symbol of their sun sign tattooed on themselves. Scorpions have the longest lifespan of any arachnid and are champions of survival. Scorpions can live a year without food, stay submerged underwater for 48 hours, live in harsh environments, only require one-tenth of the oxygen of most insects, and can even survive being in a freezer overnight! [5] The ancient Egyptians revered the Scorpion Spirit as a potent guardian for souls moving from one world to the next. It was a sacred creature to Selket, the goddess who heals stings and bites. It was not uncommon for the Priests to use images of Scorpions on ritual mummification tools to safeguard the precious transforming spirit within...

When I was given my cane to assist me in walking after the motorcycle accident I was drawn to a piece of Badger pelt that I attached to the cane. Badger symbolises aggressiveness, reliance, self-expression, holding ones own, link to the underworld and the magic and mystery of creation, link to plant and animal spirits, fearlessness, boldness, braveness. [4] The power of the badger lies in is its aggressiveness and the readiness to fight for what it wants. On the flip side, the badger is also about healing – they are the keeper of Earth’s healing herbs. Badger will persevere in finding a cure. People with this power animal are often healers and have the guts to use unconventional methods. [4] Badger is always willing to persist in it’s endeavors. The medicine of badger may be pointing you to be an aggressive healer who has the courage to use even unconventional means to achieve a cure. This does not mean, necessarily a true physical cure of an ailment. It can be a cure for emoti...

Out of curiosity I took one of those online quizzes to determine what my current spirt animal is https://www.spiritanimal.info/spirit-animal-quiz/ I got Turtle. Turtle is home wherever she goes because she takes her home with her. Her medicine advises us to own our space and take the time we need. If this medicine has inched into your life, it is time to calm down. Get grounded and let go of any dead weight that is no longer needed for the next stretch of your journey. Turtle travels light and trusts that what she needs will appear from the eternally giving source of Earth ever below her. This reptile is 215 million years old, the oldest of all reptiles. She was the first of her kind and her medicine is about managing health to go the distance. She brings a lasting low frequency strength to any endeavor. [1] Turtle’s shell embodies the calm, slow energy of stones. She is where life meets geology. Embedded into the patterns of Turtle’s bone and enamel shell is the wisdom of ...

Samhain (Sow-Win) High Autumn Calendar Timing Date: October 31 Astrological Timing Date: 15* Scorpio Sun Sign: Scorpio Sun Sign Element: Water Sun Sign Element Quality: Fixed Waning Half Moon Moon Sign: Taurus Moon Sign Element: Earth Moon Sign Element Quality: Fixed Mythology/History This is the time of year for getting rid of weaknesses (3) The God "dies" on Samhain, and journeys to Summerland to be reborn. The barrier between the spirit world and the “real” world is at its thinnest at this time of year, so it is a perfect time to honor the dead, and engage in deep meditation. Some hold parties for the dead as if the deceased were present; some hold celebrations that honor the dead, but don’t necessarily regard them as part of the celebration. Those who engage in chakra work will find this a good time to open channels of communication. (4) After the harvest work was complete, celebrants joined with Druid priests to light a community fire...
