Strange thing how synchronicity works. Sometimes data gets a browbeat by being mentioned more than once, like they're drilled in front of you and you gotta notice it no matter what. There are some books that are just that, and I feel like a metaphorical carrot has been dangled in front of me. Yet as we all know, reading takes a huge amount of time and concentration, and where the hell do I find that time? Saturn has already passed my mercury. Trust, that conjunct period was when I read books like a hungry wolf. I just ate and ate and ate.
Ok, now I'll mention some of those books I've been meaning to read. First, Cloud Atlas. It's been drilled in front of me 3 times by key people. Why the F234k do I need to read that? Just something urgent tells me it's a book I need to have on my "read list".
Then, Animal farm, 1984, the works.
And... Women who run with wolves? Ugh.. yeah, it's been reserved since forever.
(break and cont'd)
This might sound silly and foolish, but I have never read a book by Jung nor Freud. And there I go spouting theories people classify as "Jungian psychology". I have never read Jung, why? Because buying his books never crossed my mind nor stayed there long enough to act on it. I only borrow from the library. So, I did manage to grab hold of Freud's "Interpretation of Dreams", but I only managed to read one or two casestudies while eating fishporridge at the musky stall.
And to think Jung is more popular than Freud because there aren't any of them left whenever I visit the library. And I rely so much on synchronicity I don't bother to reserve them.
So, I never read them. I never read Adler either, nor any of those other books I pretend I was going to read.
So, enough of psychology. I read plenty others, though. One, it's the last lecture, by Randy Pausch. But that deserves another blog post, entitled (books I have read).
Oka,y, there's another book I really want, and that is Liz Greene's "Saturn - A new look at an old devil". There's something about keeping the best for last, because that's the best in my opinion and I've not read a page, except on google excerpts. And Border's fire sale gave me a new astrology book for only 5 bugs.
Ok, nothing else for now.
