Heredom


Have you ever seen this image?
If you search in google the word "heredom" you can see a lot of information about masonry. But there are actually many religions and philosophies taking part in this picture- the egyptian, pythagorean, buddhist, hindi, islamic and jewish-christian. 
This image represents heaven and earth. At the bottom of the image we can see the word "heredom" and an arrow pointing down, this means that the rest of the pictogram is everything below heaven, the earth. The two lower lines below the pyramid represent the lower kingdoom. This contains twelve astrological signs which represents the primary religion of the first human souls that saw God's hand in the movement of the planets and stars.
The pyramid rises froms the earth to the sky this symbolize the lost wisdom and on it we can see the different religions that I said earlier all of them rising and geting closer one to the other and blending to create one unified philosophy, one vision of God that it's the circle with the point in the middle and the explanation keeps going... 
I think all this symbology is very interesting, it takes a lot of time trying to read and understand all the factors involved in them. You have to read also about other cultures and religions to understand them. For me the easiest way to explain this picture is saying that all the religions with their different practices and beliefs bring us together to the same God. 
What do you think?

Short Stories 2

Short Stories 

2.  She's all I see



This place is full of blurred figures but if you get closer you can actually see the people in real life. I don't know why I'm here, I should but I just can't remember. I'm floating in the air, I let myself go with the rhythm of the passing people, it's a very quiet place but it makes me feel anxious the lack of light.
I think is rainnig but I can't feel the water in my hands or body. What is that? There's someone illuminated with a strange light. While I get closer I can see there is a girl, walking very fast because of the rain but it seems she enjoys it. She has a cute smile actually. I can see her wet clothes and hair, she's soaked but she breaths like if she were in the most beautiful place and like if the rain were a sort of sacred poison to bathe with.
We arrive at a door, she's looking for something in her bag so I take the opportunity to stand in front of her and watch her moves carefully. In that precise moment she lift up her face and her big black eyes looked at me for a second that felt like hours. She walks through my body and the only thing I can do is stare at nowhere trying to analize what had just happened.
Wait, where is she? I have to go with her. 

I think we are in a house, the place is small. Two dogs bark at her shaking their tales and then bark at me but I don't care. My eyes can't lose her figure I can't let her fade away so I follow her climbing the stairs up to a different room. Something is ringing on her pocket, she shut it down and I can hear her voice, it is so sweet and she laughs, I love her laugh it makes me feel good.
The more I see her the less I want to leave this place, I want to be with her, I won't let anyone make her any harm, I'll be with her, I could stay in here forever.

Palo Religion

I've been very keen lately in some African religions like Palo, Santeria or Vudú.

Have you ever heard about Palo Religion? To begin with,  taking about African religions is a whole new world, this time I got caught in this one developed in the Congo brought to Cuba by slaves. It is named like that due a Cuba's region where wooden sticks were used for the preparation of altars which they call "Nganga", they also have their own priests called "Paleros".

Palo has its roots in the Congo Basin of Central Africa. Palo's language is a mixture of the Spanish and Bantu languages, known as lengua or habla Congo. You might wonder how did I get interested in this topic? Well, It was because of my mom's client. She works in a Saloon, they meet lots of different people and one of their frequent clients went for a cut while I was there, so we talked about our cultures and Palo came to our conversation. He said they have two main pillars: The veneration of the spirits and the belief in natural or earth powers, so I got hooked by this and I started my research.
The main practice of Palo focuses upon the religious receptacle or altar known as "La Nganga" or "La Prenda". This is a consecrated vessel. It is also believed to be inhabited by a spirit of the dead (almost never the direct ancestor of the object's owner), who acts as a guide for all the religious activities which are performed with the Nganga. Various divination methods are used in Palo. Chamalongos use shells of different materials often coconut shells, among others... Well I have to make you feel interested in this so you can search more information like me, Isn't it?   ;)

Short Stories.


He's just not that into me. 

I am trying to sleep, but then his memory comes back to me. His hands around me, the smell of his skin. Could somebody please, tell me if he thinks about me? I know, I have to get over it, I must! There are a lot of different guys smarter and even more handsome than he is, I know! 
There is this tall attractive man that I met the other day, he is nothing like the guy from my nightmares. Their ideas are totally different, I like more this tall good looking man.
I like him, but he doesn't likes me that much, somehow I like that. Inspite of that, I know that when he gets to like me... I might not be interested anymore. And of whom shall I write then? 
Stephen King says: "The precipitation is punished in the same way as the lack of merit. Can't you wait?"
I couldn't. My precipitation, his lack of merit... I think that is why he likes those big eyes from the other pretty girls, those who don't read. What a shame!

             HOW TO FIT INTO SOCIETY?

Are there specific steps to being accepted into society for women? Apparently we (as girls) have to move in a certain way, smell, act and dress according to the fashion; just to fit with the standars of our modern society. Girls take popularity too seriously and followers on facebook, instagram or any socialnetwork. 
People take the outside seriously abroad. I know I'm not the only one who is tired of trying to fitting in. Unfortunately it seems that everyone is ok with that. They don't mind change themselves just to appear  to be cool people. It doesn't matter how many programms or videos to create consciousness we share, this society keeps the same. They actually don't want to change, is it because of marketing? Why do we keep feeding this superficial behaviour when we know it is no sense?
It is definitely something we have to analize a lot more deeply.
