Hi Alysia,
I use to be an avid book reader, not so much anymore. I've given a lot of books away, though my collection is still somewhat large.
Yup, i'm a CappyFull of korn, but my birthday is Jan. 8th. 9 is my "Life path" or "Destiny" number indication (add all the birthdate numbers up). It's really 27 which reduces to 9. Got a lot of 9, 3, and 7 indications in my full numerological chart. It's odd how it keeps repeating, even when i use my full birth name, or my more common name.
Are you into numerology too?
Hey, Leo and Virgo are good guesses though, i have Leo Rising, and our Rising sign's correspond to our physical body and temerament, kind of like our personality--so i definitely do act like a Leo sometimes (i'm too open and self expressive sometimes). And i have a pretty good dose of Virgo as well, with North Node, Jupiter, Mars, and Saturn all in Virgo.
I don't really go by the signs as much as some students of astrology, i generally look more to the Planetary forces, i see signs as more "wavering" indications. Jupiter is my 1st and strongest, Uranus-Neptune about equal and 2nd, Venus and Mercury pretty strong. Developing Solar consciousness more and more.
Btw, we both have Libra Moon, i believe.

thanks for the page numbers of Bob's books, I just went and re-bought them I'll check it out.
Don't know, i suppose its possible, i've gotten guidance and dreams along that line, but i'm trying to be unattached to stuff like that. Your welcome for the info. What's your life path number if you don't mind me asking?
Quote:were you born in Los Angeles like me?
in 1980 would make you only 27 or so.
I was just wondering how someone as young as you can have all this book knowledge, so it must be you brought some of this with you in memory? thats a little unusual but does happen. hope you are not overwhelmed with the memories. I guess you are getting some help handling it. thats my feeling.
.
Yup, i was. I got smog lungs
I'm young? Well, i feel and have felt pretty "old" most of my life. Unfortunately i look very young even for my age, if i don't keep the full goat-tee, i look like i'm 17 or so some have told me.
I didn't really come in with a lot of specific memories as in definite images, and what not, but i came in with a lot of feelings about things. When i hit puberty (and boy did it hit hard), i started to think a lot about God, the nature of the Universe, the Soul, and stuff like that. I felt on a deep level that all things were connected, that there is a oneness, and i sensed that there were other realities or dimensions beside the physical. I also started investigating psychism because i have always been able to read people really well, and i noticedearly on the "people registering the feeling of being looked at" phenomenon.
When i read or picked up books, i went more by the feeling i got in relation to that book, there were some books which had interesting stuff in them from a mental or intellectual standpoint, but i just didn't get the feeling to read them or in some cases got a definite feeling i should NOT read or more so listen to them. Other books, like Bruce's, Rosiland's for example, i got very good feelings about and innately trusted a lot of the info. It seems i was pretty open to guidance about being led to certain books, ideas, belief systems, and other people.
While i have a pretty developed left brain capacity and tendency, some things i really easily accepted early on, like it was an automatic knowing, stuff like about Yeshua and him really actually having revivified his physical vehicle after he died, stuff which for most left brainer types, would normally be pretty hard to believe in or even contemplate as real or truthful. Nor was any of it indoctrinated.
But, all in all, i don't consider myself that consciously and actively psychic, i'm not here to develop psychism and psychic abilities. I think sometimes people, especially like folks on sites like this one, don't really understand that. Course, i'm as curious as most here, but it just feels like my C1 issues are more important of a focus.
Do you know anything about the Nodes in astrology? They are very old symbols used, which are not actual planets, but the intersection points relating to the Sun, Moon, and Earth positions. Astrologers and astronomers use them to figure out when we will have a Solar or Lunar eclipse.
In astrology, some more spiritual or karmic oriented astrologers, give a lot of weight and deeper meaning to these two symbols, the North and South Node. The North node more or less symbolizes one's more "Dharmic" path, and the South Node represents one's major Karmic pool, what you developed too, gifts, abiltities and/or weaknesses from other experiences brought in.
Oft times the South Node has a really strong "pull of the past" symbolically speaking, meaning we can become too attached to our South Nodes, become too comfortable within that expression because its familiar. But, the North node calls to what we are not as familiar with, and takes us out of our comfort zone, hence it can be difficult to move into the North Node direction, but its also the direction of greater growth. Ideally, these will become perfectly balanced and merged one with the other, and instead of two separate parts, it will become a Whole.
I definitely recommend checking our your own North and South Node placements (they are always exactly opposite each other). Anyways, my North node (dharmic path) is in Virgo and in the 1st house, meaning i'm here to focus on Virgo like issues and themes more so. Virgo is the discriminator and analyzer of the Zodiac, its really good at seeing the individual parts and seeing their relative relationships to each other. Also deals with health, diet, work/jobs, and material stuff like that since its an "earth" sign.
Pisces South Node signifies someone who spent a lot of time and focus on mystical, psychical, and spiritual matters, and/or serving others along those lines . Pisces is the most energy sensitive and receptive symbol in the Zodiac, it's very right brain and is the personafication of the element Water (fluid to the nth degree), whereas Virgo is very left brain.
In my life, i've actually had to get away from focussing on that too much--in a sense getting away from Pisces or more so trying to balance it with Virgo which for a time requires more concentration on Virgo till they come into a greater balance, i'm here more to concentrate on the nitty gritty of C1 and its issues. I get the sense that once i've mastered my Virgo lessons, and use Virgo only positively, then that other side of me, the Piscean psychic and mystic side will become fully conscious and active.
Both the opposite signs Virgo and Pisces represents service (but on different levels, Virgo more so C1 service, and Pisces more so spiritual guidance type), it is the axis of service.
Interestingly, what my chart describes symbolically, some sensitives/intuitives have strongly picked up on as well, and pretty much said something similar to the above. A couple have told me that i have unbelievable potential and innate talents/abilities for psychic awareness and development, but that it is being blocked right now.

Thanks for the info, don't know what it means, but i will keep an open mind and heart in regards to it.

P.S., i don't think Albert was trying to hurt you at all with his words about ACIM. He has a good heart and means well, he's just skeptical and wary of anything which seems to try to brainwash people. It may be that he hasn't let go of his past enough, but that's a different subject and its not our place to judge.
Personally, i think there is a lot of good in ACIM, but in any case, ideally it shouldn't matter too much to you, what either Albert, i, or anyone think or say about ACIM. If it's helped you, then that's all that matters, be secure within yourself. ACIM teaches that's it's not helpful to worry about what others say, do or think, just ourselves.
Sometimes some say critical or derogatory stuff about the Cayce readings, which i'm attached to and very fond of, but i when others do that, i realize that it doesn't really need any defense, the material speaks for itself (look how many have been helped physically/health wise, mental, and/or spiritually by it), and so what if someone doesn't fully understand or accept things in there? I also keep in mind and heart that they are not personally putting me down, when they put down something i'm fond of and attached to.
