Hi Chay! I love that synth bass and island rhythm guitar - both set a great framework for the rest of the instruments. I didn’t mind the fiddle, but would easily be persuaded for it to be replaced by a second lead guitar solo of the same standard as the first. I’ll listen to this again! As an aside, I note a lot of your videos have images of young, athletic-looking women - as I’m relatively new to the forum, I wonder if I’ve missed a broader story of their meaning in your videos? Is there a bigger narrative that your songs underpin? Andrew Thanks, Andrew! In answer to your question, the two keynotes of my life have been creativity and the quest to know (not believe or have an opinion about) our true natures and why there is this miraculous phenomena of Life (which to me is synonymous with Consciousness), so the latter quest has always manifested in my creativity which has been songwriting and poetry, graphics (in my teens I attended art college) music and novel and novella writing. Very unsuccessful sales-wise, in 2013 I self-published a 'trilogy-length epic sci-fi gnostic quest adventure' titled "Quest of the Solar Flower" (it has a brilliant review on US Amazon), but it was a vast mistake to self-publish and not go via trade publisher as one is in competition with literally millions and millions of other self-publishers and with no real way of managing self-promotion. In that novel is a super-advanced alien civilisation, both technologically and spiritually, the planet name, the title of the leader and the leader herself all being Deya (Goddess). So the Deya character in many of my CGI/3D modelling images and the 'Deya' in some of my titles is all connected to the Divine Feminine. I also first began 3D modelling in 2013 in order to create covers for my book and my model of the Deya is the closest I can come to how I visualise her in the book. In the title image of the video the lady on the far left is Aya, the first successful female character that I morphed, but when I used her for the cover of an unpublished book of my song lyrics a lady friend said she was exactly how she imaged one of the key females in the book, so I also use her on my novel' s cover. My instrumentals "Aya Rocks" and "Aya Rocks V2: Sun Train" are inspired by her. 'Venus' also appears in a number of my music titles - next weekend I'll post a new Venus track - and to me Venus represents the Love aspect of the Divine Feminine, ranging through all of the various qualities of love from what I call non-interpersonal passion, through the romantic and more, to Divine Love. If you check out the 'About' on my You-Tube channel it explains in a nutshell where I'm coming from. I also have an instrumental called "Quan Yin", the Chinese Buddhist 'womanifestation' of the Divine Feminine. My lyrics in the versions of "Flowing Lady Deya" are all directly from my own very real experiences of the DF. … PS: I also have 2 instrumentals with 'Sophia' in the title and she's the Divine Feminine of the Greek Gnostics.
Some favourite Waoist Adages: #1: Play on the Way. #13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you. #58: Bring consciousness to it. #63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made. #92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.
