Re: Aye Eye...
I think this painting is related to the eye. Notice the phoenix has only one eye showing within the cube. I think the other cube with the man inside, both represent the hypercube. And the red is prominent as well.

Interesting indeed.... I don't think I've ever encountered this particular symbological style. Then again I often find my artistic palette rather lacking.

Notice the eye parts is broken up into senses

Remember blood? Abzu bleed for 3 days.

The Absu turned red when hit by the plasmoid from Venus, and then disappeared except for one remaining ring. It looked like the arrival of a dragon which smashed into the rings. The untold billions of electrons arriving and smashing into the rings of the Absu would have neutralized most of the ionized gases. The dragon bled for three days. The "blood" seen in the sky could have been constituted by any number of diffuse common atmospheric gases, ionized or excited.

I like that symbol though. And admittedly to deface currency to obtain it is an admirable aspect.

Re: Aye Eye...
The Yazidi consider Tawûsê Melek an emanation of God and a good, benevolent angel who has redeemed himself from his fall and has become a demiurge who created the cosmos from the Cosmic egg. After he repented, he wept for 7,000 years, his tears filling seven jars, which then quenched the fires of hell.

Yazidis believe Tawûsê Melek is not a source of evil or wickedness. They consider him to be the leader of the archangels, not a still fallen or still disgraced angel, but a forgiven one and an emanation of God himself. They also hold that the source of evil is in the heart and spirit of humans themselves, not in Tawûsê Melek.

Yazidis believe that good and evil both exist in the mind and spirit of human beings. It depends on the humans, themselves, as to which they choose. In this process, their devotion to Tawûsê Melek is essential, since it was he who was given the same choice between good and evil by God, and chose the good.

I had maroon clown fish


A real beauty but held its own with trigger fish and surgeon fish and was built body and mind for the task.

He had several very large bubble tip anemones all too himself. I actually she'd a tear viewing him in the pet store wherein I was forced to drop him off one day.... he barely even looked alive, let alone being the lustrous yet delicate beauty I had raised.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 20063747


I too returned mine to the pet store. I did not want to kill it. But could no longer house it my tank. It was just too...territorial.

With everything.
 Quoting: Seer777


You think they get jealous perhaps?


In Hawaii many years ago I saw heads of corals with innumerable domino damsel fish and other 'Dascyllus' of every possible size.

Why they also harken towards anemones is forever beyond me. To me it suggests a cop out of their social behaviour.

Sort of an interesting concept to me. IE were all clown fish once Dascyllus that felt too pressured to fit in....?

My interpretation as of now is it is a barrier which forms around the eye of horus/ra. The barrier is the hypercube, which is a type of maze of never ending doors and passageways that starts over and over. The eye is the doorway inside. The barrier is like the egg, hibernation. Or could look at it as the seed Enki planted. When it is ready, the phoenix and man comes out. How it gets ready is the mortal mind goes into the maze and finds the way. From mortal mind to immortal mind. Quick synopsis, lol

The 'barrier around the Eye'. That sounds like Gestalt. Then Interpretation. Then leading to Perception.

Plant a seed in the Mind. Nurture it and it will grow. Starve it, and it will die.

Yeah, idk and open to interpretation. Reason for saying barrier is because I keep seeing the same shape, the eye shape and the one that sticks out the most was an iron coffin. Same shape and had a window for viewing. From the 1800s. Was strange to have iron as a coffin. Which makes me think tomb/womb. Also, iron is known in the supernatural as a barrier or trapping.

For me a pursuit would imply the option for failure. Persistence implies, this option does not exist :)

lol.

Failure?

Do you recall learning to walk? It happened not, without said 'learned correction'. Failure is necessary. No one 'wins' all the time.

IDK. But they're mean bastards with no mercy.

I bought a fan worm once, and (s)he killed in 30 seconds flat. Ripped its fans off. Punk fish.

I tried everything to get it out. I had to dismantle my entire tank. Once everything else was out, I still had to net him. Or her. Whichever. The Tomato Clown too. Same story.

The Ocellaris were like peaceful angels compared.

Poor fan worm, that is terrible.

lol.

That was just its first victim...of the day.

As an aquarist, don't put either in your tank. If you seek a peaceful environment that is.

Conchs are really cool. You can get them tiny and they grow slow. So are coral banded shrimps.

A lot of personality.

They also 'clean fish' when presented with the opportunity. Their powerful pincers, however, leave fish that approach with too much zeal a rather nasty nip.

The corollary being that they can be, in my experience, housed with triggerfish (notorious for consuming any shrimp they are housed with) and have powerful jaws.

I had a lovely velvety blue Odonus niger and a skinny pinktailed triggerfish that was such a darling and frequently appeared to be smiling when I went to feed them.


.... come to think of it, I had 'cleaner shrimp' with them as well. hmm the coral banded shrimp were always my favourite, reigning under outcroppings as they do.

Everyone falls on their head. It is very big for our bodies and our neck strength is required to keep up.

I saw many children learn to watch. And saw their goose eggs' too.

They kept trying anyway. Until they got it.

Which they always did. Eventually.

Experience tends to tell me persistence can be either the failure itself or the only real needed means to succeed.

The 'root' indeed.
