Ruby's Indigo Seahorse

Xenophanes and astrologers gather 'round, as we delve into the dawn of an interplanetary phenomenon. Your request for reports on celestial forecasting have been gently transcribed. Join us as we talk a little bit about love while fluttering around the greenhouse. Collapse and collide in a pile of cassette tapes, if you happen to get thirsty.  

We’ll also recite memories from a willow tree and explore Toulon & Goodfield's The Fabric of the Heavens: The Development of Astronomy and Dynamics. Soft destinations spawned from cinnamon tend to dream of underwater sock drawers with blue eyes. 

Featuring tunes by Cosmic Echoes, Peel Dream Magazine and Bennie Maupin.

SPEAKER_10 1:43

Ooh. Sorry, little tree. I love when trees shed their skin. This one is a willow which has been here since I think like 1994. But it's not the only one because it's spread to all different parts of the garden. So it's just completely uh absorbed the garden. Um yes, I am putzing around in the greenhouse, which I tend to do, and it does take up a lot of my time. So I'll get distracted, but I just wanted to tell you about all my mint that's been just, I mean, I had just five cuttings. And it's it's it's gigantic. And every morning that I come in here after I open up, you know, this little print of my greenhouse. Ooh, and it's very peppery. Coming birth stage is doing great. They're a little, they are a little dry, but it's been so toasty. It was chilly most of the day. What day is it? I don't know about you, but do you ever when you go into your greenhouse, like I really want to know what my plants have to say. I asked them, you know, what is it that you would like to talk about today? But I know that they did say that they wanted to talk about love. Just just just touch, just touch on it on the subject. Deep into the earth. The art of prophesizing astronomical events was valued as yielding possible clues to as the wheels are in motion. Thank you for joining me. This is episode number 128.

SPEAKER_09 3:54

I've got a doose when noose on hi. One, two, three, four, five, five bucks.

SPEAKER_10 4:21

We are now in wow, Gemini. Happy birthday, all you Geminis. And uh very shortly we shall be moving into the season of the cancer.

SPEAKER_04 4:33

Hmm.

SPEAKER_10 4:34

The water. Wow. I think Father's Day is actually the first day of for all of you cancers. Beautiful! Happy Father's Day.

SPEAKER_11 5:00

And be switching on covered hill. The morning sound, the whoopoo, and you'll see the face that I love. Think of any old guy getting ready to cry. Down to the rain, but it's raining, confetti.

SPEAKER_10 5:20

I had this really beautiful dream where I was I met this I met this boy who showed me how to make seahorses, but they were out of wood and they were tall. They were like three feet tall. And then I asked him, well, what if I wanted them to speak? And he said, Oh, you just take uh sprinkle some cinnamon. I said, cinnamon, which uh I found to be uh uh really a kind of a coincidence because in my pockets I just like handfuls of this red dust. It is unemployed. Thank you. Excuse me.

SPEAKER_09 7:30

And now for our commercial break. Archimedes.

SPEAKER_10 7:43

What's your favorite animal name? Mine was always Archimedes from the Sword and the Stone. The little animal. Saying farewell to where we have resided for the last, well, three years. Hopefully staying in California. Uh for now, but I've really got my heart on this little spot on the East Coast. I've just I've got I've got big plans. I like to live life. I like to look at things realistically, critically, but also with a soft heart. You know, because life is rough. Gotta take it easy on one another, and yeah, but I'm just full of excitement for all the changes. My fig tree. So sad to leave the fig tree behind, my orange tree, my apple tree, my lime tree, and all my birds. But progress. Progress. Yeah. Hmm. Thank you for joining me. Happy to have you. Get vulnerable. Don't hold anything back. If there is someone that you truly love, and you just can't stand any more time passing between you to tell that person, hey, I want to be with you until the end of time. Tell them. If you're feeling nervous, just ask uh planet Venus for a little uh spiritual assistance. My boyfriend and I have been talking about running away together. I like that. I like that a lot. But you know, we were nervous years ago as well. Everybody gets nervous. Look at it instead as excitement. And that's what real love's all about. It's that simple. That there's this electricity, the laughter, the forgiveness, a little bit of everything. If you feel bad about something, just say it. Hey, I'm sorry. I wanted to apologize for anything I said or did that made you feel that you weren't worth it for me. You know, because sometimes we're just having a bad day and we say something that we don't really mean because we're scared or overworked. So if there is that special someone, I'm just gonna tell you one very last time. Let them know that they mean the world to you and give yourself to them. Or at least those are the things that my grandmother taught me, you know. Saying farewell to her house. Yeah, love is all about saying hello, embracing what's at your fingertips, just being yourself. And uh letting go of what no longer serves you, you know. Opportunity is real, if you allow for it. Hmm.

SPEAKER_09 11:58

Yeah, that's the way the tidy bears have their pig neck.

SPEAKER_10 12:06

A message from Venus. Yeah, anywho, happy happy summer solstice. It's time to surrender.

SPEAKER_12 12:18

Surrender to day no trip.

SPEAKER_09 14:00

It is on a easily constructed.

SPEAKER_10 14:08

Uh so let's see. But this one's nineteen sixty-one, The Fabric of the Heavens, the Development of Astronomy and Dynamics by Steven Tolman and June Goodfield. First printing, second edition, nineteen seventy-three. Page 15, cosmology. Hmm. What are things one can see in the sky and how do they move? What makes them move? Are they at all like the things on earth around us and do they move in the same way? How did the world look to the the men and women who first tried to make sense of things that happened in the sky above us? What a conception did they have of the sun and the moon, the stars and planets? And what problems had to be solved before we can recognize their point of view? They were confronted not by unanswered questions, but by problems as yet unformulated by objects and happenings which had not yet been set in order, you know, written about, documented, and far less understood. This can be most clearly seen in the case of Venus, which when she is following the sun can be seen in the sky. It's so bright. So these planets sometimes stay in one sign of the zodiac for several days longer and at other times enter the next sign more quickly than usual. But but but since they do not spend the same fixed number of days in each of the signs, they make up at one time by their speed for the amounts to which they previously delayed, quickly making up their proper course after each and every delay. The system of nature is so arranged that its upper pole is high above the earth on the northern side, the inclined zone across the metal dipping to the south. I need a cigarette. Figured with the twelve signs of the zodiac, hmm, and contrary at a direction through the same signs, the moon, the moon.

SPEAKER_09 16:32

Is it time for something to drink?

SPEAKER_10 17:39

But I love the bubbles.

SPEAKER_09 17:41

I love the bubbles, the bubbles, I love the bubbles, those bubbles, I love those bubbles, yeah.

SPEAKER_10 17:59

Yeah, this vanilla, almond milk, uh MCT oil. Plant-based shake. It's pretty fucking good, but it's like, you know, four bucks. So I drink it over the course of three days. It's worth it.

SPEAKER_09 18:18

Oh, I just spilled my bubbles.

SPEAKER_10 18:23

Where were we? Page 31. Yeah, I really love this book. And it is, you know, a little over with the index, 285 pages. So it's actually not not impossible, but it will take me over the course of the summer to just read through the whole thing. Excuse me.

SPEAKER_09 18:54

Because, because, because we could, because at its fastest.

SPEAKER_10 19:03

At its quickest. Planet Venus will cross one sign. Well, if it spends less than forty days in any particular sign, it makes up the difference by delaying in one sign when it comes to its stationary point. So Venus completes her entire circuit across the firmament. Firmament, firmament, on the 485th day, reaching that sign from which it originally uh started its journey. Mars crosses the constellations and gets back to the beginning of its track on about the 683rd day. Jupiter, climbing more gently against the rotation of the heavens, takes about 360 days in each sign and comes back after eleven years. I'll never understand all of it. The language of our existence love itself. So like the kind of just dick intuitive to unveil what may just be some sort of a solution to making sense of the world. Who knows? The art of prophesizing astronomical events was valued as yielding possible clues to the future welfare. I guess it works out well enough for us as uh readers and uh overthinkers to be satisfied with this, you know, effectively universal catalog. But in the selection of these passages that I've reproduced here, I'm just gonna say we could at once look at life as being determined by, you know, that unlimited, unrestricted opportunity to look at a planet and understand its character. That it has these meteorological doctrines, the breath of life, you know, which animates the whole entire universe. This underlying substance. Um hi. Except for the few months of summer between the equinoxes when the sun is north of the equator, owing to the water that comes down from the snows in Ethiopia. The front part seems red being burnt by the sun's rays, while the other part Is darker owing to the predominance of moisture, which is a sign of a storm. Water that flows around the cloud, causes wind, and pours down as rain. And then they start going into uh well that the earth is flat. Anyhow, what by what? Well, I think that's pretty much all it was for us. How do you feel?

SPEAKER_07 29:27

I feel you're love surrounding me. Make it love between the shit. Oh girl, let me hold you. I'll make you feel alright. Oh baby, girl, just cling to me and let you mind free.
