Introduction to the Hanged Man Tarot Card Meanings:
Just the term "Hanged Man" can be offsetting, and has a tendency to put us ill at ease. However, take a moment to look at our hanged fellow - he shows no sign of struggle on his face. In fact, the whole scene of the card is rather serene with hues of blue covering the card. The Hanged Man's expression is one of complete calm and assurance - not what one would expect at the gallows.

This is precisely the point. There is no expectation with this card. All expectations, along with all actions have been suspended. The Hanged Man is in a state of purposeful, complete surrender, yielding his mind and body to the Universal flow.

When we pull the Hanged Man card it is an indication that we may be "hung up" in our own distracting thoughts, we're complicating things, or we need to step away from something. This card delivers a message that now is the time to ease off from "doing" and simply be for awhile. When we withhold action for awhile, and just take in the events as they happen we allow things to flow more simply. If, on the other hand, we struggle, fight, and insist on control - we are met with restriction and road-blocks every step of the way.

You might've noticed that keyword up there: "sacrifice." This strikes some fear into many hearts, but there is no reason for fear. The sacrifice the Hanged Man asks us to make is in the form of giving up things in our lives that do not serve us. By suspending ourselves (thoughts, actions, emotions) we can gain perspective in order to identify the habits we cling to that hinder our progress. Sometimes in a reading the Hanged Man can be a message that we should set aside our own needs for the needs of others around us too.

I got this card in a recent tarot card reading. I only bring it up because I feel this really explains where I am in my life, I think I need to just be for a while, go with the flow y'kno? Just go with the universal flow....

Political Forum @ Morgan State University Oct 31st, 2008

I found that the Political forum was sort of informing. I felt that the topic of the economic crisis that was covered hit home with me the most, especially when the sub-topic of the banks having a big hand in the student loan business came up. I feel like the bank screws up peoples credit due to the illusion of differing loans, only to hit you with interest after you pay off the initial debt of the principal amount. I personally feel that during the debate clips, neither of the candidates could answer the questions with a straight answer. I firmly believe that both the presidential candidates will propagate their own agendas, agendas that will reflect the wishes and plans of the multi-billion dollar corporations that have contributed and funded their campaigns. I can honestly say that I do not feel the conditions will better, regardless of who takes office, and at this point in time, I am so fed up with debates and campaign commercials that I rarely watch television anymore (in addition to me not watching television in the first place).

And it begins!

So it's pretty much official man! Truth B. Told Productions is in full effect, we got Studio 205 set up and we charging a starting rate of 20$ to all artists interested in recording. In short it's obvious that we're serious so anyone interested in recording should be serious to. I do it for the music homie! Truth!

Tuesday Night's Performance Pics & Summary

So we went to this wack-ass open mic instead of Eden's lounge and this fat dude was trying to get us to pay 15$ to perform when we could have hit E.L up and performed for 5$ to a crowd that would have truly appreciated what we were saying, but instead we were performing to a drunk crowd( no literally everybody was or was getting hammered!). Regardless we definitely did da damn thing ya dig? We opened up and they all enjoyed it (Drunk or not lol)...
