The Blue Nebula Cantina

Let me preface anything I say with 'if I could prove any of this, we wouldn't be discussing it...you'd be doing it already'. So... Take this in with that in mind. Test everything for yourself. Keep what resonates and set aside anything that feels wrong.

I'll start with what is hard to see with the eyes, but what you have most likely experienced on your own. Has your skin ever crawled when next to someone who you sense might wish you or others harm? Have you ever tingled with excitement when you meet and speak with someone you feel is a kindred? Have you ever gotten chills when listening to music? All of those phenomena are due to the vibratory responses we feel when we interact with others.

In essence at any given moment we are in one chemical state or another. We then interact with something external. It causes us to react. We then feel fear, or joy, or bliss, or anger or whatever and there are physical feels that coincide with these emotions. The physical responses are due to the change in the vibratory state within our bodies.

We have neurochemical receptors all over the body. They are like tiny little locks. Every time we experience thought or emotion, we release a matching chemical that allows us to physically experience whatever we think or feel. The chemical is released and then it binds like a key fitting into a lock with whatever receptor it is a match for. It then binds and unbinds over and over rhythmically until it is used up. That binding and unbinding creates a vibration. A wave, or pulse if you will.

For each chemical, the body has a certain number of receptors for it. If you body is acustomed to a large amount of a particular chemical, it has a large amount of receptors for it to match. If it seldomly experiences a chemical it slows down the production of those receptors as they are rarely used. So, if you're a very postive person and you work out a lot and you love to jam out to music and you're spreading love and joy around you might have a lot of receptors for dopamine.

The Physics of Emotion: Candace Pert on Feeling Go(o)d • Six Seconds

As for the attraction bit, that's more of a metaphysical question. Many schools of thought propose that pulsing out a particular thought/feel pattern returns more of the same pattern much like a boomerang effect. Holding a specific belief does not ensure that exact belief to happen, but the idea is that something that is a vibratory match for it will eventually surface.

That said, being open is an awesome first step. You can put a timeframe on it as something that you believe to happen in this life or the next. I can see how it would make sense to have resolve that this life will go a certain way and then believe the next could be different, but to that I say why box yourself in? You are equally as worthy as any other human. Believing that this life can shift into something different is in no way a fool's errand in my mind.

As for manifestation matched with vibration the general thought is that if you pulse something out, more of it will come back. Let's say you wanted to find more joy. In that case you'd need to first create joy somehow on your own. Maybe you watch videos of puppies. Maybe you play with a child. Maybe you recall memories of your own joy in the past. Maybe the best you can do is imagine joy and fake it. You do this over and over as much as you can and then wait for a match in feeling to happen in your life. Whenever the feelings are a match, you've found it even if the package is wildly different than what you expected.

If you pair that with the neurochemical lesson I am basically saying that the more you push yourself into a feeling, the more receptors your body makes for it. In turn, it is then easier to feel it when it comes along and your body feels it on a deeper level because there is a greater amount of the chemical released and you've created more receptors for it.

This is a very spur of the moment explanation that most likely does not do any of this justice, but its a start. Google the 7 universal laws of you're interested to know more and Pert has a few books I found enjoyable. They are more spiritual journey than science, but the science is there.

@fern46:

"So maybe rejection isn't the right word to use. More accurately put, I see us as at times holding vibratory patterns that essentially cancel each other out. You could think of it like sound waves with destructive interference patterns. It isn't painful per say, but can be an energy drainer. I'd say 1 and you'd say -1. We'd always land on 0. Sometimes that oppositely polarized perspective is what is needed. Sometimes it feels like a battle of opposites. I just wanted to avoid the latter because I like talking with you and I do not wish to drain you.

In some regards we have very complimentary vibratory patterns. We amplify each other or create a funky sort of beat that I enjoy. I was just pointing out that I may in the future strive to err on the side of these experiences because they elicit more smiles from us both and that is more resonant with me and I may be off base, but it is potentially why you have done me the honor of extending me an invitation to converse??? "

In regards to the first paragraph, this is why I feel the Taoists caught a glimpse of something closer to the base nature of reality. The eternal tension between the poles is what gives rise to the spectrum between. I also hold similar views about energy, just not as thought out because I am a natural antipodes. Anything I focus on usually goes opposite. lol I have not read the author you mentioned. I'm not entirely certain the metaphysical is nothing more than the action at quantum level. The entire universe is a mathematical set. There is a finite, though incomprehensibly vast, number of particles in the universe at any given moment. My prediction is that as quantum computing takes off and we figure out a rough estimate of that number, we will never be able to perfectly fine-tune it because particles enter, and vanish from, our universe in violation of the law of conservation of matter all the time, and have been caught doing so by the LHC. Now, that set has variables in it, and those variables have been playing out from the moment of the Big Bang in a cascade of exponential probability growth. Like a seed growing roots that grow larger into a tree that grows upward and outward in FOUR dimensions until the very last particle has been digested by black holes and everything is a gray, murky photonic soup. The Conformal Cyclic Cosmology says that moment in time looks identical to the moment right before the Big Bang occurred. In other words, the universe repeats over and over in aeons.

Don't you remember? I told you to remember this the last aeon. Ugh. lmao

We are part of that set. We are variables with our own Pattern, or probability tree. That is what I saw when it finally all clicked. And everything I've read ever since in wikipedia (which is like physics crack) like the Kaluza-Klein theorem, Banach-Tarski theorem, the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, the DeBroglie-Bohm model of the universe, the CCC above...it all sort of clicks and makes sense. I can perceive the shape of it without fully understanding the totality of it, but my circle of nescience grows even as I learn more.

Of course that's the reason I invited you. lol We already had this conversation an infinite number of times in the past, and we will have them an infinite number more--all in differing, fractal variation. People that resonate on similar frequencies clump together in the quantum froth, and we repeatedly run into each other throughout the aeons.

As for cannabis, I think I needed to remind myself that there is greater joy in discipline and moderation than in constant wide-open highs. lol I couldn't even get a buzz off vapes, and yesterday, my palms were getting sweaty and reeked of cannabis. lmao Like I'd just rolled one. How high was my tolerance?! I'm not even big! Pfffff. And no worries. This cantina is a judgement free zone. Unless you try running out on the bill. Then, we get judgy. lmao

And I really do enjoy talking with you because it opens the probability front of other probabilities existing. Douglas Adams was right. Nothing is impossible, only highly improbable.

@StrugglingMama:

The only thing I know about Quakers is they sit in silence at church. lol That is it. Oh, and their oatmeal is pretty tasty. lol My family lineage has its share of characters. I'm related to James Mad Dog Morelli--a gangster in Chicago under Capone. He was related by way of the Palermos, who were my grandmother's cousins through her mother's side. And they're not the only gangsters in the family. Tina Santopaolo, who was calling the shots as a grand old dame in Italy until the 2000s when she was gunned down, was my grandmother's cousin through her father's side. lmao My grandmother's father or grandfather (can't remember which), was a warden for the Marquessa Di Savoy and had to leave Italy (which is how they all wound up over here) because of scandal. This is all per my grandma. Still have cousins living over in Arca Varcata, and some down in Argentina who stayed there instead of continuing on to the US. That's about all I know, too. When I was a kid, all of my family were old people. When they all died, these other cousins all fell away and eh... *washes hands*

And you can upload photos via postimages.org. Just upload the photo, grab the second from top URL, and paste it in. Bam.

You crack me up. I love it! We think so differently and yet it is the same. Beautiful!

I started with philosophy and metaphysics and then ended up in physics. In essence, if it is true on a metaphysical level it must also be true on a physical level. There is always a match. The math has to match up.

My physics and mathematical skills are sad in comparison to yours, but it matters not as the truths are the same regardless. Fractals are fun like that I compared various religions and philosophies and you compared theories. Everyone is grasping at the exact same truth.

Exactly!!! This is the infinite +1 time we've had this discussion, but we are excellent sports and we agreed again to forget to keep things interesting. A movie is never as fun the second time around. Forgetting is key. Stop telling me to remember because you know I'll just remind you to forget

As we contiue to collide, the speed picks up a bit. The space and entropy increases. The frequency hits a new octave changing the intensity. It is the same note, but a different level. That's why we agreed to do it all over again. It's the same, but yet entirely different all at the same time.

I wonder if it sounds something like this....?

😂😂😂

The original fallingfalling.com doesn't seem to have the sound working anymore...

That's right, I forgot about our little arrangement. See? This is why we resonate because you are here to remind me of that so that the universe doesn't go thbpthbpthbpthpb.

Seriously, my math skills are barely college level. But I grasp the concepts without understanding the mechanics. It's intuitive, and I've been right more times than wrong, and when I'm wrong, I read more and wait, and discard anything that doesn't hold out. I am a sponge for information.

Ha! That's perfect.

Same for math for me. I can hang and I follow my intuition. I just prefer to see truth through other lenses.

My sponge is a mess. I soak things up to an extent and then I overload and everything falls out. Malfunction. Reboot. Rinse and repeat. I'm trying to figure out a recycling program that can work for me so that I avoid overload and keep things in working order. Tricky...

I had an insight this morning that perhaps answers your last question to yourself that went unstated while also telling me why I keep getting interference out of the Pattern, and it's because of how I first stumbled upon the Pattern.

I asked, why is music only expressed in a sine wave on an oscilloscope?

A simple question, you would think. All other noises in nature are square, saw-tooth, etc. It is only when music is played on an instrument--any instrument, deliberately, aside from some percussion, that appears sinusoidal. Why? Oh, my goodness, what a rabbit hole that is, and here is the exact address of the white rabbit's domicile:

Mathematics of the Sine Wave

We, you and I, exist both as a macro-particle and as a macro-wave within the set of the mathematical universe, and thus, vibrate at a specific frequency, as does our Pattern. When we operate outside of that frequency in anything--taking anything to excess--we are essentially dialing up the frequency and going wide open, which causes it to fall out of sync with the Pattern we are born with--our natural resting frequency that our macro-particle physical body is attuned to. If we do things in moderation, we don't fall out of sync while still being able to ride that sinusoidal frequency of existence, and the more you sync with it, the stronger it gets, no more interference.

Boom. How's that for an insight? Also, the URL button is broke. I had to type it in manually.

Get out of my brain! Not going down this rabbit hole. I've been down it to the end and back. Let's just say... Yes.

Original Sin... Maybe this was misinterpreted because that theory is dumb in my opinion. Perhaps we were born into Original Sine? The heartbeat is sinusoidal.

Thoughts are more like tangent waves. Feels are sinusoidal.

And now I am going to step away for a bit because this was the exact topic I explored before my sponge exploded the last time.

I'm sorry, @fern46 Didn't mean to trigger bad memories. I pursued math for that very reason--to keep me on the side of sanity. Just have to remind myself that nothing physical changes, just my circle of nescience. Perhaps this time you will find the answers you seek.



lol No wonder we agreed to forget this part again to keep the universe from flying apart.

*sweating bullets!*

Or perhaps to learn self control. I'm an information junkie. Some files just shouldn't be opened. I'm not clicking that link

Trust the sweat and do some dishes or something trivial I'm about to do some arts and crafts. Ha!

Don't be sorry... It is just a bit freaky that you selected the exact topic that shredded my brain last time. I'll manage.

"Or perhaps to learn self control. I'm an information junkie. Some files just shouldn't be opened. I'm not clicking that link."

Nothing to fear but fear itself. Just a bit of speculative fiction--a five minute read. Basically, the whole, We Are One explained in a way that is mind-blowing. But we've already agreed that we're forgetting about this synchronicity because we're not supposed to remember everything yet. lol

So, let's just have a bit of tea, and let tomorrow sort itself out. Speaking of, I wish mine would cool down so I can actually drink it without singeing the skin off the roof of my mouth. lol Tazo makes really good tea--I like their English Breakfast tea.

Tea sounds perfect. I'll have to check that kind out. I have several fruit teas, detox tea, immunity support and tummy mint on hand.

I'd like to think that fear is all I have to fear, but full blown psychosis is a scary beast. I'm just not that evolved yet

I know I think so, but that is only because the I in you hasn't recognized the I in me yet because there is no one else here but ourselves and God. There is no billions of other souls--they're all expressions of the same individual, so that when we have been kind to others, we were actually being kind to ourself. When we were cruel to others, it was actually just ourself. When we are finished experiencing every single life that has ever existed or will exist (and while vast, it is indeed a finite number), we will be ready to be born into the next form of existence. Since time is not actually linear as we perceive it (because of the whole space-time interchangeability), those reincarnations of myself happen concurrent with all the others, so we are all one at all times. I don't remember from aeon to aeon because I convince myself to forget each time through myself in others (since they're all me, and I am you) to preserve continuity, but I think I am remembering sooner and sooner each cycle.

That is why there is nothing new under the sun; I've already thought of it all in one form or another, in one lifetime or another. We are all one, all the same soul created originally by God. So in a way, Adam/Eve is just the duality of the single soul, expressed in the form required by this reality to be physically realized. We must be split as female and male because reality requires the duality, but really, it's the same person over and over, experiencing every possible permutation of existence. That would explain dreams and deja vu, that we are just remembering previous permutations in previous lives, possibly in previous aeons.

Now, this is just something I have stumbled across; whether it is true or not remains to be seen, but I have been exploring the edges of it in my mind to see how and if it fits. Disturbing? Yes, but that is likely because I still do not fully comprehend the totality of it, if such a thing is possible. lol But the midnight ramblings and speculation sure makes for interesting thought exercises!

Hope your weekend is going well!

I agree. It is all one infinite expression. One source, broken into pieces to allow for experience, yet wholly complete in each piece. Hence the fractal.

As for souls, I think they are just one tier in the hierarchy. A way of comprehending the ultimate truth. You're looking way above that level while also looking at ground level, so the need to categorize things at a soul level is seen as an illusion from that perspective. I see the soul as a container of memories and lifetimes accessible by an individual, but that same individual is also Quantumly and simultanteously also able to exceed that level of memory and access the data for all other souls at the same time if their current circumstances allow for it. It reminds me of a node in a network. You can access data from nodes other than your own, but you need the proper codes and knowhow to get there. Otherwise, there is a firewall, or in our case a veil that blocks your view.

The notion that we are all one and that we have been and will be and are all has been liberating for me. It has helped me to release a lot of judgment that I was holding onto. I see people on relative paths more so than people who have lived in error. Each path holds value simply because it allows for experience.

Even if there is nothing more that can ever be, there are infinite ways to break the pieces apart and put them back together. It is like working with a piece of paper and a box of crayons that never dull. What you draw is only ever limited by your ability to dream. Or my little ones would maybe see it as a big box of Legos. They build something completely different every day.

Male and female. Yep. I am. We are. The duality exists within each of us. We have both creative and receptive aspects. We have male and female components of the mind. We have male and female energy centers within. We have male and female hormones inside. Even on a chemical level we are male and female. Our chemicals bind due to their positive and negative aspects. I dislike calling it duality though for two reasons. 1+1 actually = three. Anytime you combine two, there is a third state that is created. The vesica piscis. The combination. The union. The transfer of data.

Secondly, there are two poles, but it is a trinity as there is a neutral point as well. We see this on a chemical level for sure. There is always a zero point. Additionally, everything is a spectrum and runs in octaves. Male and female, sure.... But really we're all rainbows. Or maybe it would be more accurate to say diamonds refracting the light of the one true source. The source light is amazing and pure, but it is the variance in color and the sparkle of the light that we see on the other side that we are drawn to. I think it is boring to get stuck analyzing everything through the poles... Not that you do, but I have read so much in the metaphysical and philosophical schools that harp on and on about duality and the war between them. It is way past time for the book of rainbow sparkles to be written. The world needs to stop seeing everything through an RBG filter and upgrade to the disco ball effect.

And thanks! My weekend has been pretty good so far. It is raining, but we're knocking out little projects, relaxing and playing. How about you? Anything fun?

I'm not sure how I feel about that, us all being one, and there being no time but right now. lol Reminds me of the saying, Life is but a dream. But whom is the dreamer? You, or I? Such an odd sensation to think about that. And why do I have Moody Blues running through my head?! Wildest dreams, my backside. 😂 I don't want to fall outside the circle of human's collective nescience. lol But it must be like a ripple where we bob in and out if the CCC is correct. Hmm...lol Morning musings.

I think the only reason there exists duality is because it is a numerical value in the Fibonacci sequence, which is what I believe we will find governs the number of dimensions in "shells" similar to how electron shells are arranged in groupings. It's all self-similar at any scale, anyway--micro- or the macro-. Interestingly, I learned recently that the Fibonacci sequence forms a spiral that makes every single Hebrew letter, depending on how you orient it. Eeeee-oooooo-ooooooo... lol

Anyhoo. My morning has been spent putting the finishing touches on my what-I'm-blowing-my-money-on-if-I-win-the-lottery project. I'm a huge Star Wars Expanded Universe fan and this cantina was named after a story idea I was working on in which this ship was featured before the rat put it all to death.







I actually drew this out by hand with a pencil and ball point pen years ago, and only recently got a copy of CorelDraw for MacBook so I could put it all together. Love how it turned out. I usually make maps when writing just so I have a better understanding visually in my head of how everything is arranged, and whatnot.

If I had to guess, the dreamer role shifts. Sometimes it's you. Sometimes its someone else. I think we're not supposed to know or notice when it's our turn, but we dork that up.

The fibbonanci sequence is another rabbit hole I tweaked out on a few months ago before things went sideways. I got stuck on the knowing that something was missing. It makes a pyramid, but it seemed incomplete until I ran it for -n. When you do that you get a mirrored pyramid. Two spirals. One that spirals out, spirals back and then spirals out again. It seems more consistent with the way the universe works. It creates, recycles, and then reseeds itself for the next and slightly more expansive iteration. *stopping my brain now* You are on fire with stepping into all of my most recent mental landmines. Interesting.

Those drawings are great. Thanks for sharing. I'm a big fan of Star Wars. You have a lot of talent

You're a Star Wars fan, too? lmao Too funny. Yeah, we seem to have a synchronicity going on here...perhaps I'm not stepping into them, but dancing through them? lol

Here's the description for the Courier-Class:

*excerpt from official CEC sales brochure*

Corellian Engineering Corporation’s answer to high-end light transports such as the Baudo- and Theta-class shuttles, the YT-1500LT Courier-Class Light Transport was designed for customers who live out beyond the Mid-Rim and want to travel safely in style and comfort without having to be as wealthy as a Hutt to do so. Each ship is made to order, with a wide-variety of paint, decor, and entertainment options available. This gives the Courier the hand-crafted feel for which it is fast becoming famous. There is a waiting list as a result of this popularity, with the average wait time being around a year, but the owners all agree that it is well-worth it.

The Courier features several radical new design elements, including a forward-facing docking ring, and a cockpit that sits in its own emergency salon pod above and to the aft of the ship, which can detach in the event of catastrophe. It also features the new Dual-Zone Deflector Screen System™ which offers superior protection at a fraction of the energy cost thanks to Incom/Subpro’s HG766 QuantumX Generators powered directly by the Quadex Eco-Dyne Fusion Core at the heart of it all. 



Upon entering the ship, one is enveloped in luxury. Exotic wood paneling covers the walls, lit softly by recessed lighting, while the crash-pad rings are upholstered in supple bantha calf leather. The main hold features a leather grav-couch tooled with sylvan designs and built in ergonomic and comfort options such as massage-mode and warming mode. While sitting there, you’ll be able to enjoy the state-of-the-art home theater system controlled via the holo-table in front of you, which is also programmed with hundreds of games including dejarik, sabacc, and jetan, as well as all the games of your favorite casinos such as those found on Cloud City. The galley area is complete with laundry units and top-end appliances to provide for the most demanding tastes, with large cargo bays and fresh water provided by an Aquatix WRS3 Water Reclamation System, the industry’s benchmark in excellence. The passenger quarters feature carpeted floors for sound dampening, exotic wood armoires, and a large, ceiling-mounted holo-projector. The Courier also comes equipped with a Fabritech t6-A Hypertransceiver Array so that business may continue uninterrupted from anywhere in the galaxy (subject to Imperial restrictions, where applicable).



The YT-1500LT is surprisingly robust for a shuttle, and features a ventral turret to fend off enemy star-fighters while its powerful shields can absorb any laser fire it cannot dodge. Furthermore, the Courier also features a series of high-speed combat thrusters as part of its SLAM (Sub Light Acceleration Motor) system, which draws away power from systems not in use for a burst of extra speed, giving it exceptional maneuverability against capital ships. This has raised more than a few complaints among Imperial officials. They claim that CEC engineered the Courier deliberately to be able to outmaneuver customs corvettes. CEC’s attorneys have countered that the Courier was designed for customers who live beyond the Mid-Rim, where Imperial “protection” Is often lacking entirely, and piracy using capital ships is common. To date, no legal action has been taken against CEC, and the ship continues to be produced in large numbers to record sales.

lol What do you think? Here's my next WIP, the CEC R/AD-111B "Raider," an anti-droid Starfighter prototype. Only a few dozen were built as examples to try to win the contract for the Republic Navy's need for fast star fighters capable of outmaneuvering and out-gunning the droid star fighters.

Well... If you're a fan, I'm a casual bystander. I love the movies and I have seen all of the offshoot series, but I haven't read any of the books. I'm certainly not up to designing my own ships or documenting any of the current ones

I love the features you've highlighted. Sensible and layered with marketing principles. Nicely done. 'Supple bantha calf leather' lol

The second one is off to a great start. I think hobbies like this are so incredibly important for a mind that needs to stretch. I look forward to seeing the finished project.

Dancing through the synchronicities... Perhaps. I find the checkerboard dance floor of many schools of thought to be lame. This is more like a neon dance party in the dark. You can only see if your eyes shine black light. Ha!

My friend, let me start you off with one book of short stories from the Old World...back before the day the Rat appeared...

*wind blows, storm rages*

The Expanded Universe was so awesome. So many stories. Tales From the Mos Eisley Cantina is right where you want to be. You'll read the stories of the background characters and what they were up to that day long ago when this punk kid and old man showed up in their speeder with two droids...lmao Greedo is in there, as is Wuher, the guy behind the bar. So are the Tonika Twins (the girls smoking the hookah) and the Devronian (the guy with the devil horns), who was some general in hiding wanted for genocide.

I love the technical books. The warfare guide was good, as were the cross-sections books. I even have the boxed encyclopedias. lol That's why going to GenCon is fun. You go to the book sales and get stupid deals on old novels and game books like ones from West End Games--those were the best and were written around the stories coming out for the EU by Timothy Zahn and the like. Ah, they did in Thrawn. He would have been so awesome to behold...for me, though, it was always about world-building. I had a lot of time in the joint to do nothing, so I world-built. I have a 3-inch binder half-full with my hand-written stuff. Like this...

I'll have to check it out sometime for sure. I tend to read mostly esoteric works, but it isn't the best thing for me lately. I need a bit of fiction to pull myself out of the deep end from time to time. I'm in the middle of a bunch of reading for a class I'm taking, but this might be a welcomed change of pace after my final exam.

I started reading the Lord of the Rings a few months ago. I'm in the middle of the second book. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet...

Your handwriting looks like typing. I imagine it would have been hard to stay busy. I'm glad you found a creative outlet for your mind. Very cool stuff. Maybe you should author a Star Wars novel. You certainly have the content to work with.

I hope today offers you some peace and whatever you hope to achieve.

Since you mentioned the rat
