A. Venefica’s Weblog: Symbolic Meanings

Does a post have to support the topic or can it also be a guide to the symbolism against it? Cause to me duality is only useful to a certain degree, when it comes to cherishing all, love and hate can get in the way.

Hi NewAgeAlchemist,

Good question.

I chose the blog topic of “Duality” for selfish reasons.

I thought, through this exercise of creative writing, I would be able to garner a clearer view of how humankind as a whole (through history and analogy) deals with the essence of duality (positively, negatively, or through equanimity or otherwise).

So the answer to your question is, I’d say - write what your Being tells you to write within your own contextual authority.

If you are coming from a place where the concept (mythological or otherwise) of duality holds symbolic opposition within your beliefs - by all means, do tell.

Thanks for your question, and for your interest.

This is going to be a bonzer sychroblog - I can just feel it!

Blessings,
A.

OH how cool … count me in!

In the minds of some people, the idea of duality brings up the intial separation from God, Higher Forces, and fragmentation of a sense of soul. I welcome your invite to discuss it on a blog post.

Definitely count me in!

Thanks, A. Venefica, for coming up with the topic.

[...] A. Venefica is kicking off this months Mythology Synchroblog, with the theme of Duality… What do I mean by duality? What are the mythological, spiritual, or symbolic implications posed by duality? For example: [...]

Hi, Donna from When Iris Rises sent me. She left me a comment on my blog about an amazing dream I had. She thinks you would be perfect to interpret the dream. If you get time, would you mind taking a look? It’s on my website under the blog section. It should be the first entry listed but if not, it’s under Full Moon High Tide. Make sure you go to the blog section, because there’s a video show and vlog. Confusing! Thank you!!

To Donna: Great! I’m looking forward to your perspective.

To Liara: Spot-ON! These diverse perspectives are precisely what I was hoping read about from the various bloggers. I’m looking forward to reading yours.

To Mahud: Hi! Thanks for suggesting my spearheading the topic! I’m particularly intrigued about which wonderful rabbit you’ll pull out of your hat for this topic.

To Mutha Mae: I’m happy to regurgitate whatever impressions wash over me in the accessing of your dream. I’ll be devoting this evening and tomorrow evening to interpretive work - I’ll be in touch with you.

To Everybody: Light & Super-Smiles.

Liara of Dream Builders has made a post with her perspective on this topic here.
Thanks Liara!

I’m in! (But I have no idea what I’ll write about yet - good thing I’ve got a couple weeks!)

Me too!

Love
Terri in Joburg

Hi Ailia - great! Looking forward to your post!

Hi Terri - fantastic! Looking forward to your post too!

Beaming,

All rightie–it’s up! Visit Duality and Beyond at Quaker Pagan Reflections for my contribution to the synchroblog. Thanks for the invite!

Thanks for the invitation.
This is a great topic and one that emerges for me quite a bit. It seems to represent a very Western perspective…it is also reflected in the differences between the right and left brain. I just saw a video by a neuroanatomist who had a stroke that illustrated the very global perspective of the right brain, the state of mind that we hope to reach meditatively.
So many of our power imbalances are couched in the dualistic self and other and can only be deconstructed by reconceptualizing, of breaking free from dualistic thinking.
I will read the others’ responses with interest and hope you will think of me for the next time.

I’m pretty sure I left a note to see my synchroblog entry, but I can’t find it. Ah well. Here I am again. I did my article on archetypes in duality (click here), which if you think about it, is about symbolism, too … D~

I missed it! Just found your blog after seeing the synchroblog on another site. I would love to be a part next time. I have a mythology blog that takes a simple view of mythology and focuses mostly on connections to today.

I like what I have seen on your blog.

Hi Donna,
Indeed you did leave me a comment about your post, but for some reason it got bunged up in my spaminator. We’re all straight now. Thanks!
Blessings,
A.
