Hey, here’s an update on how I’d like for us to use this space together.
You think this is just an email in your inbox? Sorry, wrong! Nothing is only one thing, nothing is what we first think it is…
This ““email”” also exists on substack where you can post comments and reply to others as well.
At the time of writing this, you and 220 others are here. You’ve been with me from the start (<3) so I’m thinking this can be our virtual clubhouse.
The possibilities for us
My role as mayor shrimp is that of a curator and facilitator, occasional author. My focus is interacting with this special group of clubhouse shrimpers, and the intention is to always have a keen group of people who want to show up here.
I come up with some topics, we discuss. Sometimes I’ll write more personal and reflective pieces with prompts for myself and anyone else interested.
There will be opportunities for co-writing pieces, and your ideas and thoughts are always welcome – so look out for those emails especially.
You can read whatever lands in your inbox and silently appreciate and reflect on your own, or you can also come inside for some interaction.
BTW, you can just reply to the emails directly too if you want to keep things between you and me.
Actually – leave a comment on this thread to let me know what you think about this idea, any q’s or concerns? Are you here for this? Is there another way you can think of for using this space together? What else do you want? Tell me everything and I’ll pop it into my ideas notebook.
The point of it all?
I’m learning, sharing my learning, and want to learn from and with you all.
I’m also big time interested in selecting the best resources and people to learn from and sharing that. I think I have good taste, sue me!
Alright, memo DONE. Pretty sure I’m doing this with Mercury in my 12th house and RX shadow… rookie error or somehow brilliant?
I’m starting to sound like Mystic Medusa…
BYE!
P.S If you are worried about identity when posting on substack, there are settings on your substack profile that you can change to be more anonymous… like I’ve done myself :-)
hi welcome back. i've missed you. i haven't engaged with astro in so long, i don't know why but this year has been a real shift for me. everything feels new again - sometimes good, sometimes bad
hi someone, somewhere. thanks for the warm welcome back.
honestly, I have been distanced from astro too – and you're right, a real big shift is happening. do you feel interested enough in astro in any way atm? if so, what is landing with you while you're going through a transformation?
i think so although i'm not sure of anything as of late. i feel compelled to learn about astro but then it feels very complicated and in depth. it's as if when i feel i'm starting to make sense of something, someone will pull me aside and say no that's not right. i guess in this current climate as well i've had to prioritise a more practical way of living and maybe i've pushed aside some of my more esoteric interests. i've found new hobbies, new communities and people but i'm not sure how the future looks for us all - maybe i shouldn't even wonder, afterall we've been taught to let go of plans
wow, your example of how you start to sense something shaping inside you and then some "authority" outside pulls the rug from underneath... is SO APT to the general climate right now, isn't it?!
