Simply Put

Russian woman, Daria captured by Dmitry Nikitenko with his Nikon D5100 50mm 1.8

"Simple is a poem, simplicity is a concept, or a state of being within one's soul aware of all around in the round. It is circles that hold the worlds together in the belief in one, and all numbers including the most important one: zero. When you see this in a woman you've glimpsed the eternal within the ordinary... This is sacred mathematical skill my grandfathers and grandmothers taught by their presence in life." - Gregory E.

This moment brings to the forefront of my memories yesterday wondering what today would look like, how it would feel. Well, here I am in that tomorrow glimpsing at a future I will never know. How will today be remembered tomorrow is dependent upon history and knowledge of it, and who we are as an individual and collectively where we do fit with the whole. The pity we feel in our young people is in their bearing: what they are unaware of. This unawareness is from a detachment engineered by the pieces left out in childhoods disconnected from the now, the land as mother, and play. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 10/06/18

A Study in Manhood.

Mia Malkova in tennis shoes and jean shorts defines a special. Understanding the special is fundamental to the riddle of a whore's dynamic role. The perspective of a whore has two eyes: how a man uses her, and what the healer needs to help her healing the angst of her soul. It is pondered, the theft of soul, understanding why she is important to the equation of vitality vs. elements that detract from the whole, and the need for wholeness whores express in their actions.

It may sound like a riddle; it is, but on the outside of that vernacular is understanding of the human condition that created a role for a woman to play. When in our collective history did the two-sided role the whore plays within forget men's role as a whore himself? If a whore is merely a woman's role the denial of men cannot possibly follow the rules of simple math: (x + y = z).

- Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 9/25/18

Mia Malkova soft in this purple ensemble and in this position tugs hard at the loins. In the code of deep manhood the determinative element is within the will. But, the will has to be defined. Is a man a whore, the woman a whore, and if so how does one devalue what she does not have as an estimated value to honor? - Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories 9/25/18

Gathering String

Gathering String by Gay Isber 

I am a hyper-vivid dreamer – sleeping or awake. My eyes seems to shut down and I can see in my mind’s eye creations that put together items so perfectly that I just have to physically make them. Almost every morning, I wake up and can see jewelry that honestly wows me. If I don’t see them, I will wait in place, replay the last dream until I spot it. It is almost always there, just waiting or playing hide and seek. It makes me love going to sleep. In my nighttime dreams, I often see things that have never been seen before, even colors that are not really there, smells are included sometimes, sometimes I am speak in Spanish, I taste things, music is often in the background and twists and turns evolve into problem solving my latest quandary. They are so rich in texture and character that I feel like they are block buster movies. If I could somehow get tubes in my head to siphon off the visions into a monitor so that others could see what I see, I would be rich. 

My brain, while I sleep just loves: having adventures, making jewelry, entertaining me with story lines and creating arts of work. Last night, for example, I saw a new breed of glowing, sparkled bugs that hopped far away with a click and a snap when I touched them, glittering as they soared in a rainbow colored arch – they were so cool and fun and I loved how they soared and sounded. Often, I see my childhood homes but also amazingly cool designed interiors that I wish that I lived in. I see friends from years ago and hear their voices perfectly. I get to see other items that just please my soul. But every day, I see jewelry right when I go to sleep or immediately when I wake up. It is such a gift to have your days’ work laid out before you hit the coffee pot. Not every item gets made. I have many that keep coming to me over and over and they will keep appearing, until I finally make them. Currently, three items I just can’t seem to get up the ingredients to make are always there every morning, waiting patiently. I have a degree in journalism, from way back. My first love is writing – thankfully, as it has been my most used tool over the course of my adult life. In my fantasy life, I rent small, stylish homes, always with an amazing views and write for a month at a time – only to move to another location to do the same again. It really reveals my nomad tendencies. I have moved more than 20 times in my life and look forward to moving again. The gypsy magpie in me always wants me to create jewelry – shiny things and dark things. And that has somehow, mostly paid the bills. 

I am a true slave to creating things.

As a reporter “gathering string” is a term where you collect tidbits, facts, phone numbers, contacts, ideas, locations and other information that will assist in writing the story. Shortened to “string” it is much like I do to create jewels. During the day, I collect string and then at night my brain puts my string into dreams and solid formed ideas to entertain me. I prewrote this article in my dreams. The ether is so good to me – such a gift. My string includes: audible books, color combinations that excites my eyes, fossils that I find interesting, articles on nature, birds, museums, TV shows, books, Pinterest, and more. I am passionate about historical items. Flowers always excite me – (if I had a penny for every dollar that I have spent on plants I would be rich). I am just naturally curious about the world around me but 

I find travel the best for my string gathering.

I use to shy away from fashion magazine, and still kind of do. They overwhelm me if they are great. If they inspire me, I often write to the editor. I read the New York Times and sometimes just have to take in small doses of the T magazine, if it is a wonderful one. They have special editions on design that they print a few times a year that have sometimes been super inspiring. If they are great, it will overload me with excitement and it can just be too much. I will look at it until I feel my heart speed up and race. Only by closing it am I relieved. I rarely leave my studio during the day. Just ask my hubby, I can go a few weeks without peeking out my front door. I must be the creepy lady at the end of the cove that is rarely seen. I am content to just make things as fast as possible to keep my muses at happy. Thankfully, I can order the world through the Internet. It is the Internet of Things and I love those things. And string! I certainly love string! All rights reserved 2016 www.gayisber.com gayisber@gmail.com

SEX, POLITICS, and GUNS

Guns. The coming together of gun and white woman is and has always

been a deadly combination; add a porn star to the equation and what comes alive,

and out of that kind of math?... ~ Dawn Wolf, Keeper of Stories. Audrey Bitoni in photo.

The coming together of gun and white woman is and has always been a deadly combination; add a porn star to the equation and what comes alive, and out of that kind of math? There is power in each of the three, but the coming together is the multiplication of hidden factors, not to be separated or divided. But, since the subject poses within history the fact of what a porn star brings into this equation limits the subject of murder to a narrow space concerned with being objectified, raped, or seen as no more than a potential sexual conquest. That ain't fair. Sex is a center piece.

The historical contribution of white women to the violence African slaves experienced, and the grandchildren of ex-slaves shuddered beneath returns the full weight of this history upon the shoulders it belongs. This kind of violence is tied to sex.

This perspective comes from the context of American life and legacy. Not addressing the core of the conditions holding this country apart, and together is irresponsible. Understanding how complex the relationships that complicates the world, and strains within the myth of American society is what is part of being a global citizen! Disturbingly, these are connected to the conservative white man in Alabama running for senator in Alabama!

How?

Americans don't want to know their truths. But it is entirely up to the American citizen to find out why sex is tied to what disturbs the equations of American history in the puzzle around this white man in the senate race in the bloody state of Alabama!

Lines in Circles: Sacred Math

Lines of attraction do not taper off into the oblivion of any kind of deconstruction. Lines evolve over the expanse of substance in the hope of being squares, rectangles, triangles, off-angled alignments leading towards designs. It is the substance of purpose that creates art from lines and circles.

Out of line are circles arching, aligning, making do with being concentric in nature or being spontaneously eloped with eclectic treatment of mysterious things lines can separate us from in the fast movement of paces through our dichotomy, our perceptions, our understandings and our way of being present or absent from the teachings of the circle. Without the sacredness of line and circle the cross section of line into graphs for one mind to understand another mind will miss the flow of circles meandering effortless through and connecting to the internal concepts willing to be part of traditions, sacred awakenings, and the riddles of existence.

All this is learned in silences. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories nov. 02, 2016

figure 8 into the equation(s)




body art of Maya van de Wiel

8 is a number. It is a symbol. 8 is a pharmaceutical of formulas in the realms of power healers and Rabbis draw from and into in their work for others. As a sacred number it the symbol of infinity and it has been the symbol walked between the animals sacrificed and cut in twain during the covenant ceremony between two men in the ancient Hebrew ritual. 8 is also the number of Jesus. This is resurrection. This number brings the dance of life-death-resurrection to paper, to voice of power to rituals and joy to ceremony.

The Hebrew letters are forms of Life, of Creation. Without further explanation the number 8 in the Hebrew language is Hhayt. "8 is the sphere of storage of all undifferentiated energy, or unstructured substance. It expresses the most unevolved state of energy, as opposed to its achieved freedom in Zayn (7)." This is how Carlo Suares describes it in his life study of Qabala in his book: The Cipher of Genesis (p. 63).

Also, the typical Goddess form of a woman has always at some point in many women's lives captured her essence in the shape of the number 8! A woman's body type with this figure arouses man's manhood in deep ways often beyond the ability to explain why and how! In the body of a woman the possibility of enlightenment, of empowerment and penetration into the realms of masculinity guided by the feminine principles of the Womb are boundless!

John Leonard, a retired man That can be a problem.. I married a beautiful woman once, and every time I left her alone for a minute, the men where round her like flies, ... but I knew it was me she loved so really I didn't mind too much..

Jenn Lawson said,

Men can't help flirting with unavailable women; it's the challenge they like. It's also testing her loyalty...they just might be able to 'tap' that at least once. When they realize they can't, it pisses them off


I said, Jenn Lawson, well said. Men like that are a danger to those who spurned them.

Well, John that is an expected reality. The depth of the relationship, the man and the woman are determinatives in an unknown. It is a complex math attraction, loyalty, love and commitment. The equation is based in integrity and strength of character, will and the dream of who one is in their lifetime. .. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories

Elders Talk: HIGH MATH

 Gen. 1:28 Be fruitful, multiply, dominion. Fruitful = mature ones character, creating mind/body unity centered on God. Individual sync with God.

Multiply = have children as a couple where the vertical love of God is rooted in the human family. To seek for man/woman love before maturing individual love of God first creates problems as the love of God can't flow freely within the couple, as the individual foundation for love is not established. - Adruma Victoria

African woman in black dress. 

"The notion that a man must first find himself before he finds his woman, or he'll damage whatever women he comes in contact with along the way is not an absolute. More than anything else this sentiment thinks of itself too highly. It is as if a man is a disease, and women crumble before his presence afflicted by his ineptitude. Is there any power within women? Is she indeed the weaker vessel without fortitude of her own? 

The complexity of development and revelation can lead thought and reflection on and on and on until patterns space themselves out into various modification of the formulas we are familiar with. When that happens we have become more than we thought and the exchanges between a woman and man can lead them down and up paths of discovery until both have balanced themselves together, or separately. 

I dig the way Adruma breaks down Genesis 1:28. His assessment moves consciousness from the crude into the thin intangible delicate spheres of awareness." - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 5.23.14

"As men we are initiating subjects of equal value with women who are in object position. The reality we know is out of sync with the creation ideal in the heart of The Creator who created man and woman, as the subject/object representatives of His own inner subject/object dynamic. This was with the intention to achieve true and glorious subject/object relationship between man and woman such that The Creator is enraptured in our human stimulation, covering human love with God's love where everyone is honored, valued and equal partners in love. The ideals of the engagement of love have been trampled and all experience violation and betrayal. That would not be our collective experience had humanity followed the original flow of true love outlined above." - Adruma Victoria 5.23.14

Color of Lovers intertwined...

What is true love? At the intersection
of vertical and horizontal, true love
forms a ninety-degree angle and must fit
in anywhere it goes. It should fit in Eastern
homes and in Western homes alike....
True love can fit in anywhere and everywhere,
regardless of whether there are
differences in racial, cultural and religious
backgrounds.

There Is Much To Being A MAN!

tattoos of a Black woman

In the study of being a man this topic is important. The aspect of manhood that is the warrior is required to examine this subject. Its meanings and affect on the psyche of children, and social conditioning affect the outcome of the substance of Life, and the lives of our children. That being said, and there is more to be said, I don't believe there is enough courage amongst many to broach this subject online, or in the open out of fear of the political power and structure of the Gay Movement. Meanwhile, in the real world there is a darker side to homosexuality that many parents, teachers and healers have to deal with in the shadow of coached public opinion. 

You raise a powerful and disturbing question, Kumwaga Ra-Nu Kiganja KemPtah, asking if white people have the right to define heterosexuality for Black people! That is a hard question to ask a people whose intellectual and spiritual and cultural structures are formed and fashioned by whites and their relationship with white people spurns their onward progress in American society. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 6.22.14





"See the law of identity (crisis) is a Western cultural core filter which nurtures homosexuality. In algebra we learn that the equal sign is a balancing sign. And the law of identity states that Man=Man (Man can only balance Man) and Woman=Woman (Woman balances with Woman) and they abhor Man=Woman (Man balance Woman and vice versa). They call the unity of the great diversity "Contradictions" which undermines Western faulty thought and practice. Western thought and practice is circular thought for nothing." - Kumwaga Ra-Nu Kiganja KemPtah 6.21.14

Challenge to Reason

I disagree that religion is for fools. It is for several good reasons, but religion is necessary for many people's evolution. It is a safe space for the brute, for example, who needs a religion to be his/her focus tool, for lack of a better term. It is a place never intended to be permanent. It was meant to be a series of steps that lead to understanding, initiation, enlightenment  and Knowing! 

Mathematically, religion, as I see it, is a triangle and Knowing is a circle. Looking at the top of a pyramid is the tip of the relationship between preacher and lay person, master and student, Iman and congregants, Pope and his followers. It is the zenith, the end of what can be learned from religion. Fears set in here at this point if the next right step is to step off and away from the pyramid into the unknown to become a part of the concentric circles of Knowing. It moves the mind, and the spirit into the deep feeling of what Creation is, and a person comes to be embraced within ever evolving light and concentric circles reveal that the shadow of death is light viewed from another angle, and Creation is not a fixed point in a distant past, but a continual moment ever in the present. 

Lay persons in most faiths, as I understand religions I've studied, don't have this language and many lack the fundamental skills to intellectually, emotionally, and spiritually grasp what this means in the sacred language of math and law. I suspect it doesn't become clear until one's death visits, or they die and cross over into the next world(s). - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 12.12.13

PYRAMID of 7,4 & 0's

What cycle?

One comfortable day after noon on the 30th day of August in 2012, a moment in time was frozen, not by a camera, but by Tülay Bayrak's presence and the form, the shape of her body's understanding of it's self. I wish I could say I'd seen the image without the camera's memory of her. But, however viewed it is an illustration of an art form young men need to grasp from the inside of their beings at levels of comprehension higher than the preceding generations of accomplished men of Power. They can't, and neither can anyone else not take the cyclical shift we are in and have been in in ever widening ways seriously!

In the transfer of touch things are happening outside of the limited spectrum of logic. Cycles overlap. They destroy and build themselves anew. Our bodies house awareness. In the center of our awareness we can be aware that the center of centrifugal, and centripetal  forces are sharing a center point of existence we can easily call 'aware intelligence. Its logic is its own without familiar guidelines a person can be comfortable with if, indeed said person is asleep out of fear. Ideally, the hope of many were instantaneous changes would seize the earth and its inhabitants on the proposed date of prophecies because those people lived outside of themselves. They pretend their awareness does not live in their bodies because they believe their bodies are temporal, and do not deserve a healthy relationship with their spirits.

This division is definitive of religion; itself a body of awareness. Held captive awareness becomes dangerous, and dogma can become oppressive, stagnant, and dark prophesies rooted in fear will begin to dance in concert with domination and division. That dance asks how much of the prophecies of the Mayan, John and others were missed and misinterpreted out of fear, and out of body experiences? This dance poses the new questions for the new cycle.

How long will the next cycle last is immaterial. Only the present is important. The three directions of awareness are in the one. It is easy mathematics  The composition of the present is three. It is in the past. It is the present and the future in the one, and the succeeding moments. Not understood this equation is in the heavens and upon the Earth, our Mother. What is seen in the heavens has happened. In the present we stand, and with the capacity of the mind can plan, dream or glimpse the future. These three are one.

high MATH

The 2015 winner of the Raytheon Math Counts National competition series was 14 year old Kevin Liu from Carmel, Indiana. The young man was stereotypical of a young Asian genius. He was kind, child-like, respectful and confident in his skin. He was a guest on the Kelly and Michael show and the producers created a game for the hosts and the boy. It was funny. Five questions were asked with 30 seconds to answer them. The boy won, of course. He got the answers before the time count started, or in the middle of a sentence. Look at the questions and if you are like me long out of school you probably get none of the answers.

Phemy Williams' campaign for racial justice! 



In my experience Black Motherhood is intimately linked to social activism. I have no idea, or capacity to separate the two. They are as inseparable as the Creatress within Zero is inseparable from the Creator whose copulation produced One. This the sacred dividing of the Zero that birthed the numbers and granted authorship into the roles numbers play within Creation, and how powers, and attributes are dispensed throughout all of Creation.  

These are mysterious things, and invisible things attached to the holy places men need to learn to trust as much as the Creation Stories they come from and cling to. The Her of Existence is important to the continuation of Life, and the maintenance of souls, of generations, and is directly responsible for clarity within her creations she calls her children, and the numbers she birthed that hold thoughts, agreements, and the world together. - Gregory E.

Sol-Om-On

a teaching shared by Kijhana Roby
Jan. 4, 2013

KING SOLOMON:



The dying Sun travelling from East to South to West, became 'Sol-Om-On'.

Sol, the name of the young Sun-God, East the place, and Rising UP the Action, or the Sun rising in the early morning! 

Om, the name of the grown manly Sun-God, South the place, and the Meridian, the still balance, or the Sun at High-Noon!!

On, the name of the Old dying Sun-God, West the place, and Setting Down, the action, or the Sun Setting in the late Evening!!!

Thus we have 3 names: Sol-Om-On. 3 Movable Functions: Rising (up), Balancing (still), Setting (down) and three places: East-South-West.

The life of Solomon is the story of Pharoah Amenhotep III...But the science behind Solomon is Sun Worship....His Throne was the "Sky"...When Jesus was supposed to inherit the throne of Solomon, It Was To Take His Place In The Sky...& his principle, which mimicks "Horus" was supposed to rule over all lands.

Once again, King Solomon never existed....

"At least in the States teaching is pretty much unimaginative, and almost devoid of life-magic.

Without it in the teaching process we get what we got right now. Is that fair? Is that enough?" - Gregory E. Woods, 1.19.14

"Ouch...no offense to anyone but I thought that most people would have learned the multiplication table before finishing elementary school. Of course (and I hope) that everyone knows that multiplying any number by 9 the sum of the digits of the total always equals 9.

Now the image below, to me, is a much more interesting fact. Note: the above image is not, in my opinion, the best way to remember how to multiply by 9 unless u take into account that the sum of the digits of the total equals 9 but like I said the same thing goes if u multiply the number by any integer." - Manle Nai
