This blog is a refuge and sanctuary for dark souls
here you will find anything Dark Raivenn and Circeris would want, bother or like to write about we both aim for two things
First is worldly wisdom, which is conceptual,understanding of experiences. For it follows after the events themselves,
it necessarily inhibits the direct understanding of truth The second is integral wisdom, which involves a direct participation in every moment; the observer and the observed are dissolved in the light of pure awareness, and no mental concepts or attitudes are present to dim that light."
Dark Raivenn:
still cant figure out how to have the text color on the main post not be too white to lessen the contrast with the black background. Anybody has any ideas?
Dark Raivenn:
done with school for now. So I have the entire spring and summer to go and put life back on this journal. I miss this place.
Dark Raivenn:
@ Circeris : new look is better. What font did you use?
Robin:
That sounds great. We'll all try to write more. I honestly didn't think anyone would reply. But thank you. You've made my morning. A morning that would otherwise have been uneventful and dissappointing. Well let's keep in touch shall we?
Circeris:
...watching all Jim Henson's "Storyteller" on youtube. So far, i've seen 'the true bride' and 'the heartless giant'. I've read them before too......these clips are nice
Dark Raivenn:
--update-- I will be working on the pending fairy tale post.
Not Orpheus:
I'll always consider myself lucky that my mother forced all the amazing dark writers. The first book she ever gave me (apart from Shakespeare) was Poppy Z Brite. ^_^
Dark Raivenn:
Oh, me and my sister can be quite obsessive too. So welcome to the obsessive club.
Not Orpheus:
Anything made by H.P. Lovecraft is worth looking into. I have all versions and reprints of his books. Obsessive fan, I know.
Circeris:
Hm, Id look up that Cthulhu Tarot set...thanks for dropping by Not Orpheus. +_,+ . come by anytime alright
Not Orpheus:
The Call of Cthulhu Tarot set is way better... Of course, I am biased since I've been a fan for 20 years... ^_^
Dark Raivenn:

I like the fairy bags too..., i like the fairy bags, i like the fairy bags, i like the fairy bags, i like the fairy bags, i like the fairy bags... O_O
For somebody who grew up with Anne Rice vampires, it isn't uncommon to dream about having black wings and cry blood instead of normal tears. I know it will ruin white dresses but then again it wouldn't be a big deal since I mostly wear black anyway. Bloody tears has been seen in anime and tv shows as well , the most recent that I've seen is the Bleach character Muramasa and the vampire series Trueblood.
I know of Stigmata that sometimes make those who have it appear to cry tears of blood but this news that I've seen shows that it is not a case of Stigmata. The hands aren't bleeding but is primarily focused on the eyes.
I can always say I hope they find a cure or get a proper diagnosis for the kid etc etc., poor mom who is worried sick. But my instincts are screaming, "tears of blood, tears of blood!" along with thoughts that go Omg! How beautiful , How captivating! and it is hypnotic in a way. It is the kind of thing that if it happened to me or Circeris, we would be grinning all the time. Which would make us the perfect picture of lunacy. Imagine a hyper and perky us all the time. (probably why this particular condition hasn't afflicted us) Cases like these kindda makes me wish there is such a person as Dr. House.
Now if a sudden case of normal humans sprouting black wings somehow reaches me, I would go sulk big time.
bits and pieces
The cases of Peter Plogojowitz and Arnold Pavle are worth looking into
Circeris after seeing this entry) "why does HE have to have bleeding eyes"
