Blacks role is defining the bottom.

There's no solution for Blacks in America. It is what has always been. A few will thrive , some will get back and others fighting to survive.

@Troy could you explain time markers. I seem to be unable to do so. Thanks, Del

Chaka Khan was in the Black Panthers for a while. What do you think of Herbie Hancock's non Jazz forays into popular music?

@Mel Hopkinsperhaps because there is more unity amongst sisters, because they are the glue in the community the church, business, and every progressive movement amongst Blacks. It may be true of other people of colour.

I no longer have delusions or hope.

I first saw Miles Davis on Miami Vice and a Honda Scooter ad. It was another few years before I came back to him. There's a good radio show about Miles Davis narrated by Quincy Troupe. A poet who co-wrote his autobiography. It's called the Miles Davis Radio Project.

Miles Davis was at the forefront of major changes in Jazz. Jazz stopped changing when he wasn't there to change it. I am not certain who made that quote. I was a Prince fan and more interested in Miles Davis as a personality. Although I heard him play live in the late 80's. He was one of those musicians I wanted to hear before either of us died. I am not a Jazz head but I have heard some of the greats. and some of the newer musicians

I thought of Troy

IBM has a division devoted to AI called Watson. One of the projects was to teach AI how to become an Astrologer. Some Astrologers believe that AI will usher in a New Age in Astrology. And that computing power will result in a wedding of AI and Astrology. Not until AI becomes intuitive or we learn what is consciousness. So probably not.

Yes woman

What have you invented Jealous Edison? I heard a panel discussion about Prince that Toure hosted. One of the panelist said Prince begs from a position of strength. Power has always been attractive. Not true. Tyka Nelson said Prince felt short changed because his brother was handsome and tall. Which was a line in the Song Lady Cab Driver. So she asked him would he rather be handsome and tall or play music. She said he never brought it up again.

Moviestar on Tutu was written by Prince. Just found this.

Prince may have been bi during his early years. He was supposed to do an album with Miles Davis. Miles Davis liked Prince liked both Michael Jackson, but said Prince was an a genius. I'll post a few clips later

Miles Davis also performed Moviestar, which was written by Prince. I had the chance to see them individually live. Would have loved to have seen them when they played together.

You have already become one of the most active participants. Charmed to have met you.

Yes that's it exactly. You can interpret a painting. You hear a painting at times I can hear the chart. A painting speaks to people differently based on their experiences , thinking and beliefs. So keeping with that analogy the paint speaks to me. It does to everyone. What do you think of when I write the following: a white; a red dress, a black dress. You have not only an image you have a story and perhaps a personal memory. So if you think of just those colours they still have meanings. The only difference is that my stories or meanings are connected to archetypes. Tell me your favourite colour and a colour you hate. And I will tell you a story @Troy is that true?

An Astrology chart takes a date a time and a place and creates a mandala. So an Astrology chart is like a painting that can be read by the Astrologer. For me time is like a color. The time you posted you is more about feeling the answer. As opposed to knowing technically what I am saying.

At some point during Rona I decided to listen more to the stars. The first two readings it told me stop talking.

@Mel Hopkins I listen to what is said , what is felt , and what sometimes isn't spoken verbally.

You have plenty to say, but not being heard is exhausting. I post mostly other people's words.

Don't take my word for it. Check it out. Sanskrit is a fascinating language. Letters are grouped by the part of the mouth you use to pronounce them. There are 7 different types of letters, which I beleive correspond to the 7 visible planets. Devanagari is a type of Sanskrit translated it means Divine city writing. I have been doing a bit of reading about the Vedas and Indian philosophy. Jyotish translates as the science of light. Which is what Indians call astrology. The Vedas are the sacred books. I came across a saying Jyotish is the eyes of the Veda. Sanskrit and Astrology are keys to unlocking Meditation Yoga and Breath works (Pranayama). I was trying to learn Sanskirt but I figure I just stick with the Astrology. The learning curve isn't as steep. Source: gurumukhi.ru: Ayurveda glossary of terms Prāṇa (प्राण):—1. Vitality. 2.

You have a little pronoun problem.

Drugs and creativity go together like hand and a love. Cocaine was big player on Wall Street in the late 80's. One of the managers was and his mistress were allegedly riding the line. For me the Lovesexy was the last Prince Album that had me excited. I have to say I was a huge fan and had a lot of the unreleased material. The raw version of Open Book, Crucial and Still would Stand all Time area few of of my favorite boots. All the sound quality can be a bit uneven. I think after Wendy and Lisa, he was no longer in a band. It was just musical accompaniment. Although he had some great female vocalist. I went to a few concerts one after show. The most Open Book Crucial Still would Stand all Time the bonus round
