Horse as a magic symbol

Tomorrow starts the New Year inChina. It’s the year of the horse.

In western countries the horse has a specific symbolic meaning. It stands for power and energy.

A horse is well grounded and helps to experience grounding, contact and trust in reality. You can rely on the horse when you really let go. Emotionally and energetically. This helps to experience reality around you, in relationship and in yourself.

The horse is very sensible and sensitive and remembers how you relate to it. If a horse becomes a friend then you’re really welcome and you have a good friend to rely on.

Insofar I wish you all to meet or to have a good horse. Of course I also wish you a wonderful Happy New Year.

Burning desire

“To burn with desire and keep quiet about it is the greatest punishment we can bring on ourselves”

Federico Garcia Lorca

The burning desire is radically human. It mirrors the intensive inner energy, which is so to say the utmost emotional need to be expressed. It has to be expressed, whatever intensitiy you will feel.

To be quiet about it means in this sense not to express this desire not at all. to be quiet means to resist to it`s inner dynamics and rhythm. To be quiet means to reduce your life, your vitality, the respect you can have for yourself.

This burning desire keeps us going, keeps us moving out into the world. This burning desire carries and supports our emotions, our inner life. This burning desire structures our mind, our brain, which accompanies us to find orientation.

This burning desire is the essence of our awareness. Awareness of the world around me, the awareness of myself and the awareness of the others around me wo give sense to my life.

Overwhelming, blind discipline, steady and rigid rationality as well as fighting (self-) control are enemies of this burning desire.

Obama`s digital singing “Jingle Bells”

being engaged in (non-) verbal communication we also have to be Aware of digital-art-communication. This means the following: digitally you can construct whatever combination of word, singing, picture andsoon as you want. On the one hand you have to be very careful with this, because one can no longer be sure what is the original and what is the copy.

On the other hand one can find an endless reservoir of artificial ………………….I do not know yet know how to name this. But you can be sure that in this case of Singing-Obama you will enjoy.

Twitter: My Ego is your profit

Many of us, millions of us, join social networks. I want to relate for example to Twitter.  Of course there is a need, a benefit to communicate via Twitter. At the same time twitter is so fast that most of the messages and posts just appear and before you realize it, they are gone and followed by many others. Faster and faster.

And yet millions of us have joined Twitter and post several times a day (not really realizing that a single post just is like a grain of sand in the desert. Blown away by the wind.

At the same time Twitter ………

Be aware of the people around you

….so that you will find out by yourself:

People do often change, but mostly they don`t talk about it.

So, if you are aware pick up the chance to listen to the resonance in yourself. And meet again with this Person. What will happen then? Enjoy!

It`s music that matters

It`s music that matters

Music is emotion. In all cultures. In all times. And in eternity. There is no culture without Music. Science proofs that music connected with dance is one of the oldest ways for passing on knowledge.

Music can heal. Music can open doors of peoples`souls.

And perhaps our early experiences of music leave a mark that we only understand much later: at the age 50 or so. It`s the continuity between music and the sounds of the everyday environment. And this starts with the first song one hears, the first song one sings. Perhaps it’s all down to the influence of those sound effects on the first records that one heard in his life.

If you want to get to know more, just have a look here.

Rich people just care less

Rich people just care less

Did you ever think about some social or human consequences of loving to earn money and to get rich?

Did you ever think about what will (perhaps if you don`t care) happen if you get rich and still believe you wouldl stay the same?

There might be one when you will realize this:

Turning a blind eye. Giving someone the cold shoulder. Looking down on people. Seeing right through them.

These metaphors for condescending or dismissive behavior are more than just descriptive. They suggest, to a surprisingly accurate extent, the social distance between those with greater power and those with less — a distance that goes beyond the realm of interpersonal interactions and may exacerbate the soaring inequality in the United States.

A growing body of recent research shows….
