I like the third. A few things I would change. I wouldn't say neat.

@aka Contrarian I have a read a lot of books about Astrology Numerology and Tarot. A few books about time and numbers. After a bout two decades and few languages I created to do reading, it jelled into not just reading a person but reading time as well. Like a person time has moods which vary. I have just found a way to quantify those movements.

Basically I use words to read the subconscious mind and time itself. It isn't that complicated, I was fortunate to find\develop the techniques.

That is a high compliment. i haven't taught you anything> I have just described things that you knew intuitively  and had experienced

Zhe second one I wanted it to be more conversational.

The second one I asked it to drop words that were superlative. 

So I was looking for tone and content 

Here are three versions of my bio. Feedback is appreciated.

 

Over the past two decades, my journey in the realm of astrology has been an ever-evolving exploration, marked by significant discoveries and innovations.

It all began with my foray into Tarot and Numerology, seeking to unravel the mysteries of human character and fate. Tarot, with its vivid imagery, adeptly described situations, while Numerology provided swift character delineations. However, I felt a void in timing within these practices. Determined to bridge this gap, I delved into extensive research, encountering various techniques to pinpoint timing, albeit with limited practical success.

Undeterred, I amalgamated diverse methodologies, crafting my own heuristic and formulas around 1997. By 1999, I embarked on mastering the fundamentals of astrology, augmenting my repertoire with insights into planetary movements and cosmic influences. With over 1300 Tarot and Numerology readings under my belt and a growing proficiency in astrology by 2000, I charted my unique course, creating personalized correspondences between numbers and celestial bodies.

Around 2000, my focus shifted predominantly to astrology and Tarot, as the latter proved less predictive compared to the dynamic character analyses offered by astrology. A pivotal moment arose circa 2006, as I transitioned into full-time psychic work, driven by the quest to provide concrete answers to seekers. During this period, I painstakingly devised a magical language, imbuing each numerical value from 1 to 930 with profound symbolism and temporal significance. This linguistic endeavor, though labor-intensive, enriched my readings, offering glimpses into the tapestry of time, with outcomes often spanning 2 to 4 months, albeit with occasional deviations.

My explorations extended beyond conventional boundaries, as I sought correlations between Tarot, astrology, and ancient languages like Greek and Hebrew. While these endeavors yielded vast knowledge, some, like the intricate categorizations spanning the first 300 numbers, proved inconclusive despite rigorous efforts.

In 2015, a novel concept emerged, integrating words alongside numbers to unlock deeper layers of the subconscious. Words like "spirit" and "mind" assumed dual roles, embodying symbolic meanings and temporal markers within my system. While initially met with skepticism, these innovations resonated with a select few, underscoring the nuanced interplay of language and numerology in my practice.

The culmination of my endeavors manifested in a sophisticated magical language, where symbols transcended mere numerical representations, embodying abstract ideas and temporal constructs. Drawing inspiration from mathematical constants like Pi, I curated a diverse symbol set, each character holding profound implications for discerning moments in time. Engaging with seminal works on numerology and time, such as Georges Ifrah's "The Universal History of Numbers," and David Allen Hulse's "Eastern and Western Mysteries," further enriched my understanding, shaping the contours of my unique methodology.

Through my system, I've discerned intricate signatures in time, enabling me to navigate the labyrinth of individual destinies with precision. While my expertise shines brightest in individual readings, its efficacy in mundane astrology remains tempered. Nonetheless, the ability to decipher temporal nuances, akin to charting the landscape of time itself, underscores the timeless wisdom inherent in astrological inquiry.

Allow me to guide you through the intricate odyssey of my astrological journey spanning the past two decades.

My initiation into the realm of divination commenced with the venerable arts of Tarot and Numerology. While Tarot adeptly delineated present circumstances, Numerology offered swift character sketches. However, it was an astute observation from a friend that catalyzed my exploration into the temporal dimensions of Tarot readings. In 1997, I embarked on a meticulous inquiry into timing techniques within Tarot, culminating in the formulation of a heuristic and formulae to impart temporal specificity.

The subsequent decade witnessed a profound immersion into the realm of astrology. By 1999, I had scrutinized approximately 1300 individuals through the lens of Tarot and Numerology, alongside a burgeoning understanding of astrological charts numbering between 50 to 100. Concurrently, I crafted a bespoke numerical correspondence with celestial bodies, enriching the symbiosis between numerology and astrology.

Transitioning towards a more astrology-centric practice circa 2000, I relinquished Numerology in favor of its more dynamically insightful counterpart. A significant milestone emerged in 2006 during my tenure as a full-time psychic, where the exigencies of clientele demanded precision in prediction. Hence, I devised a comprehensive magical language, assigning nuanced meanings to each numerical value within an extensive range.

The year 2015 heralded an innovative integration of linguistic symbolism alongside numerical divination. By intertwining words and numbers within my practice, I sought to imbue each reading with added layers of significance. Although met with varied responses upon dissemination through platforms like Facebook, discerning individuals have attested to the profound symbolism inherent in this amalgamation.

My current pursuit revolves around the development of a sophisticated magical lexicon, wherein symbols transcend mere numerical representation to encapsulate abstract ideas and temporal nuances. Inspired by mathematical constants such as Pi, and informed by seminal works on numerology and symbolism, this endeavor represents a pinnacle in my quest for precision and depth.

In summation, my journey in astrology epitomizes a relentless quest for synthesis and comprehension, where each chart serves as a unique portal to unravel the mysteries of time and destiny.
 

Over the past couple of decades, my exploration in astrology has been quite a journey.

It all started with my interest in Tarot and Numerology. They were handy tools, shedding light on people's situations and personalities pretty quickly. But I wanted to dig deeper, especially into timing, which isn't usually a big focus in Tarot. So, I tinkered around with different methods, blending bits of astrology and other approaches until I found a system that made sense to me around '97.

As I got more into astrology by '99, I found it added layers of depth to my readings. By then, I'd looked at thousands of Tarot and Numerology charts. That's also when I came up with my own way of linking numbers to planets, kind of spicing up the whole numerology and astrology mix.

In the early 2000s, I shifted more towards astrology, finding it more insightful than Numerology. In '06, when I was doing readings full-time, people started demanding more precise answers. So, I created this thing I called a magical language, where each number had its own meaning. It was supposed to give timeframes, but sometimes it was spot-on and other times, well, not so much.

Always on the lookout for connections, I started playing around with words and numbers around 2015. Shared some of my findings online, and while some folks didn't quite get it, others found it pretty intriguing.

Recently, I've been diving into this complex magical language I've been developing. It's like a whole new way of looking at things, drawing inspiration from math and some great books I've come across. It's helped me give some really specific insights, from describing places to pinpointing when big events might happen.

Overall, my journey in astrology has been about peeling back the layers of time, using words, numbers, and the stars to help people find their way.

I have said this before, you are an unconscious Magician. 

I am pretty sure that you arranged the crystals until it felt like they had the correct pattern or shape. Even if you hadn't thought about it in advance.

I knew a wizard that did psychic healings in a room full of crystals.

What you are saying is outside of most peoples concept of reality.

In the Vedas it says if you devote yourself to Astrology, it will grant you powers. The same is said about meditation. I believe this is true of any task that is your devotion In your case it may be phrases.

Were you excited to get your first typewriter or word processor?

Most magic is done at night because that's when then the gap between worlds is the thinnest. @aka Contrarian there is the conscious and the unconscious, the rational and the irrational. They aren't opposite rather they are polarities that belled into one another. 

I think you are less tethered to the earth which means you drift into other realms. 

The pyramids are much older than Pythagoras. Africa is the cradle

study. Have you ever considered whether you are here to learn something, and if yes, what you are here to learn?

I found the answer through Numerology. I am here to inspire and listen to people. You can be in a relationship and still feel invisible. I try to be present with people.

love is one of those things that may be difficult to define but easy to recognize. Assuming you are not to damaged yourself.

Agreement doesn't follow from understanding simply because of life experience, character internal mental and emotional disposition.

Who isn't wounded by life? Any concept defies agreement not because of its essence but because of our own.

@Mel Hopkins Thanks your link has inspired me to use AI to rewrite my bio..

Haven't felt motivated to do a new video... yet

@Mel Hopkins all valid points. I am partnering with a marketer to tap the Chinese Astrology market.

However you Troy and Prof D are the exception. You all lead active lives. I still say most people aren't productive with free time. 

How many people do you know thaz realised a dream during the pandemic? There were a lot of divorces and domestic violence addiction and escapism. Creative people found creative ways to continue to express themselves. However most people are audience.

The Unabomber said that we are slaves to technology. So while I don't condone the violence his premise was correct.

@Delano actually I’m assuming AI will NOT have human characteristics when it surpasses us. I tried to convey that with my comments. When AI is sufficiently advanced humanity will be of no l consequence. 
 

Keep in mind AI is not “programmed” in the traditional sense. 
 

 
absolutely the sister who wrote the matrix is feeling write prescient right now.

There is no logical reason for AI to terminate humans unless it has human drives.

Unless it becomes conscious itself aware. Which I can't imagine. That doesn't rule it out though.

@Delano If AI becomes superior to humans the rights we bestow on  it and the murder question are irrelevant. The power dynamic will have shifted. AI would potentially be as concerned about us as we are with chickens.

 

AI would know us better than we know ourselves and train us to do their bidding the way we train animals. That is assuming AI found it necessary to keep us around and not exterminate us like vermin.

You are assuming that AI will have human wants and desires. Even though it may appear that way. I don't know how you could program motivation onto AI.

I wasn't implying that. If AI has the rights of a person then terminating it is akin to murder. 

@Troy yes those are valid additions.

simply "educated" is sufficient.  We have been filled with propaganda. We've been taught what to think, not how to think. 

That is an education.

I was likely to go to schools where that wasn't always the case.

It's been that way since the birth of this nation.

to enrich 

 

Humans have been inventing and using some type of machine to work for them simce the beginning of civilization. AI is a part of the same continuum

I would say there is a huge difference.

In the past you had craftsmen, artisans and artist. You develope skill by by learning how to use your tools. 

Using AI may result I. The end product but it circumvents the process that improves your skill.

For certain tasks like writing code AI is a boon. For anything creative I think you still need innate ability. My favourite art capture something or changes how we see the world.

If Artificial Inspiration can be programmed that is a game changer. In short it has to become fundamentally human. Which creates serious ethical and legal problems. 

All that says is don't believe the hype.

I like to solve puzzles. 

I think therefore I am.

What happens when as a civilisation we no longer have to think.

Many jobs are the equivalent of a daycare center for adults.  Designed to keep people *busy*.

Is it true the army had soldiers dig a ditch then refill it.

I just don't see it. People used to read on the train ride to work. People have more of relationship with their phone than other people. Myself included as is evident by the forum.

What do people do now? I see babies on phones. I see parents on phone and sometimes the kids on a phone. I see couples at restaurants on phones. So once people stop working do they put down their phones? In the pandemic how many people do you know that did something they wanted to do, but didn't have time?

I am outside watching people walk by the only people not on a phone or carrying their phone like a pacifier for the mind. Are older people and immigrants. Even homeless beggars are I. their phones while they are asking for money.

I just saw this on Facebook. I don't know if this makes your point or mine.

Blacks have no rights that Whites have to respect.

After a few centuries Blacks still aren't seen as human.

Civilization will not collapse just because a few billion people are on permanent

You may be an exception but most people can't handle large blocks of free time.

Some retirees literally drop dead once they stop working. Also you often hear the story of successful entertainers developing an addiction. The other example I use is Covid. Work provides structure and social interaction. So as much as people say they wish they didn't have to work reality is much different. In addition a study was done on people who won millions on the lottery

. The only people who weren't broke were the ones who kept their jobs.

If people used their free time productively the entertainment industry would be a fraction of its current size. 

In Australia a lot of retirees gamble. While some are gamblers most have a lot of time. I used to go to dive bars in New York and there were a few patrons who were there all day.

While that's not everyone and may not be a large percentage of people it is an issue.

that’s true and with AI you can solve even more difficult problems, which is more rewarding.

What will become of people when they no longer have to think or work. I reckon that drugs, VR and escapism will be more dominant than they already are. Which will may result in the collapse of civilisation
