Nouveau Naff

wingsThis pic is called the Wings Of Love and it is by Stephen Pearson – it is one of the best-selling prints in the world. There was even a framed version in one of Saddam Hussein’s houses. I cannot find birth details of the artist but which sign do you think would most fancy it and why??? Saddam was a Taurus.

Also, i may be bimbonic but i don’t quite get it. She is on the tiles of her…bathroom?  Or she is a heiress with a large terracotta patio? She is naked as was applying fake tan (?) or has just flung away her D.i.y. Tantric Sex book in disgust.  And then…a new vista opens up. It is another world. As seen through the Cosmic Swan. Is it a Swan to reference Leda and the Swan?

Or because Swans pair-bond and have v.elaborate mating rituals? If the artist used, for example, a Budgie, it would not be nearly so striking a picture because budgies are apparently terribly promiscuous and have no mating rituals whatsoever.

Anyway, the Cosmic Swan is delivering her a well-built gentleman whom we are thinking is her soulmate. Looking a bit scarily replicant-like he stands on one wing of the swan, gazing at the moonlight on the water. Would it kill him to smile??? Or is he perhaps from an agency and not in the mood to work that day? Or he is thinking The Deepest Thoughts?

And whilst we are being completely stupid, what signs are they???  He is not a Fire sign because no way would they stand so passively on the Swans wing. He would be doing chin-ups or winking at the woman. A Virgo or Cancerian would be hanging on. Maybe he is a Pisces? And the Swan is looking at him going “WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY TO ME???”  because it was something a bit cheeky and inappropriate.

Lastly, is the dude carrying something? Or is it just that his right quadricep is sticking forward a bit.  And why isn’t she really reacting…? She seems tres casual for someone with another world opening up on her patio to reveal a gigantic Cosmic Swan and cute guy situation. She might be texting her mate. We can’t tell.

    THIS is one of the best selling prints in the world? I’m genuinely surprised. It looks like a dollar store number to me. Obviously not to many others. My apologies if anyone has this in their house. I would like to hear about why someone would really like this.

    It looks to me like they are in the slightly alienated afterglow and they are real lovers sitting/standing in a bathroom and the cosmos is opening up. The swan, the moon and the ocean are metaphors of love and eternity that they are both feeling into. There is some sadness to me too.

    So maybe its popular because its an ink blot. And scorpio showed up in mine?

    She is saying “Yes, take him away, you can have him!” She is Libra and knows that something/someone else will be along shortly….

    The swan is having a better look before accepting her seemingly, generous offer……

    I would’ve loved to have seen a budgie in the place of the swan. I think it’s the swan who makes this look so tacky. Oh who am I kidding – everything about it is tacky…

    It may be a reversal of The Little Mermaid. After a shag session on the red lit tiles, it’s time for merman to return to the ocean on the wings of a water bird. But wouldn’t it have made more sense if a seagull was taking him away?

    And I’d say she’s a Leo (centre of the floor, naked, bathed in “look at me!” red light) – or maybe a Scorpio? Red light would trigger her kink factor, lying naked on the outside patio as she’s hoping for potential voyeurs – and now she’s shitty because Pisces male is swanning off with some other chick. She’d be like “What the fuq? Feathers are so 2003!”

    He’d implore her to understand, saying “Sorry, Oh Salacious Sylvahna, but I must now return to the sea. The dolphins need me to free them from the tuna nets.”

    She’d then call in her man-servants to catch a couple of dolphins and set them up in a fishtank on the patio to lure the man back. Then she’d reject him on the grounds of the annoying whale music he insists on playing during sex. Then she’d buy a budgie.

    Ha-hah-ha this has so made my day. LOL! And all the comments too. I had sex with a guy who wanted to play new age whale music during it once. It was vile. Would rather fuq a budgie than him. I don’t think lady on tiles is a Leo. Leos actually don’t do nude. Sagittariuans like to sit around in the nude, go to concerts and travel anywhere.

    the swan is going in for a closer inspection of his pecker and she is waiting for the show to begin coz she’s just had lousy sex with him and can’t wait for the swan to drive him away. Then the swan will magically turn into her real lover (with a decent size pecker and a notion of what to do with it) and they will live happily ever after.

    I thought the swan was going in for a nibble actually.. hmmm. Maybe the Swan is actually delivering the dude to the woman but the dude’s heart isn’t in it and she can see that? Or maybe she’s had too many tangelo daquaris and is halucinating the entire episode on her patio tiles post-unfulfilling-orgy / Tupperware BBQ? If she was a Leo the focus on the picture would be directly and centrally on HER! He’s too naked to be Pisces – they value their ‘discretion / privacy’ (well, before drinks at least) and too pensive to be Sag, Leo, Aries, Taurus. A Cap man would never trust the insubstantial wings of a swan. Nor would a Virgo (?) Gemini maybe, or Libra thinking to himself, ‘Should I get off or on, off or on? Who am I really? Should I just bonk and be done with it? Do I have an allergy to feathers?… Won’t my knees / butt scarpe on those harsh tiles…?’ Someone should photoshop a budgie in situ and post it for us.. purely for comparison I assure.

    I think the woman called forth the Cosmic Swan to take away the man with no personality because he was sexually disappointing. The swan doesn’t want him either; nobody wants him cos he’s a self-indulgent sulker.

      After Tahiti, Damons, you won’t need a Tantric ‘Goddess’. They LIVE it there sans instructions.
      One can read all they want about it, but a direct experience from an initiated
      Tantriki is mind blowing.
      There is a fine line now between sex industry & tantric practitioners, as the industry
      has jumped on the bandwagon. What is said about the difference between
      porn & erotica……the lighting (& positions). All articles are about the sex part, bigger & better ‘O’s,
      but never give the reason why or explain the theory behind the function of cosmic orgasm.
      That fee should be for 90 minutes according to Institute of Tantra guidelines.
      Only 10% of tantric techniques is about sex, but that’s what mainstream is interested in, not
      the meditations & disciplines.
      Yoga is a requirement & the ability to visualise, knowledge of the energy systems etc.

      This was on my business cards:
      Tantra is the science of love & sexuality,
      Breath, the energy that moves & guides it,
      Sex is the art form that elevates it,
      Meditation makes it more profound &
      Heart connects it all together……………………………(from 1999).

      Do you remember The Orange People, acolytes of Osho & the cult of Ecstasy?
      Rumoured to have produced the best MDMA ever as a fast track experience close to
      what can be achieved thro ‘enlightenment of love’.

      After 15 years (Pluto in Sagg), i’m semi retired now & i’m afraid it’s been a case of ‘Look what they have done to my song, Ma’.
      http://www.whitelotuseast.com will give you the instructions you want.
      And You Tube ‘Mantak Chia’ for video instructions. His book The Multi Orgasmic Man, aka MOM
      is an investment for excercises.
      Hope this points you in the right direction.
      Namaste.

        Timely Pegs as just last night had a dream that one of my patients, Aqua Sun/Scorp Moon/Gorge was laying on my massage table and naked, full frontal (which I never see in an ordinary sessionand am not exactly looking for anyhow!).

        But there he was in the dream. Wish I could remember what he said but it was sexual. Between that and this topic, there is a message.

        Liked the site link you provided. It is well, by gosh, ~educational~

        And hey, listening to Peter Murphy this evening. Song “Sweetest Drop”, imbibed with tantric undertones…

        “Unveil me from your layers”…

        “In union we’ll flower…

        Sail naked in our fondle”….

    First off, this pic hurts my eyes and offends my Libran sense of beauty.
    I think the swan is supposed to be a symbol of love forever cos swans supposedly mate for life.

    That bulge on the guy’s leg is like his other leg coming forward and bent at the knee. It looks out of proportion somehow. I don’t think the artist used an actual human model.

    The lowly budgie has their own mating rituals too. From what I observed from my childhood pet, it usually involves sidling up to the object of their affection and vomiting up chewed up seeds which they spit into their face. (My budgie loved a stuffed teddy bear.) Then hopping astride the bear and vigorously rubbing its buttocks on the bear’s face. I now understand why the female budgies at the pet store are so mean to the male ones shoving them off branches and biting them. LOL!

    The terracotta tiles could be the hint that the picture is depicting the greek myth of Leda and the swan. That would mean he looks so ashamed because he tricked her and took Leda against her will.

    She is a Leo, look at me, look at me, I’m hot, I’m naked, you know you want me.

    The swan is pissed off, as a symbol of grace and dignity, he is thinking get off my wing so I can fly the fuq out of here!

      I was thinking exactly the same thing about this brooding woeful Narcissus!! Only a Cancer could sulk so deeply that he wouldn’t noticed he is unclothed. He probably has some Gemini in his chart making him impervious to ridicule too.

      I agree with the others that only a Saggie Jock Girl would be happy sitting on the locker room floor texting her gal pals in such a state of relaxed nudity.

      Due to personal history with a water Lover who believed himself Dali’s digital protoge, I think a Cancerian painted this, I agree with you again Cosmic Taurean.

    Opening mystic today had me giggling and going o.m.g. This pic was above my parent’s bed for many years and I was always fascinated by it – maybe that makes me tres naff lol. There seemed to be something mythical about it to me. I saw it as the swan delivering the man (a Pisces) to the woman (probably a Sag – a worldly woman who is in touch with herself). She does seem to be contemplating his worth to her. Will I or won’t I?!? I always felt the pic had a Taurean aspect to it too. Maybe that’s why I liked it (activating my Merc and Venus in Taurus). Plus I love swans. Looking at it now the swan seems to be saying “it’s all up to you now buddy”. The man does seem to be a tad arrogant though like all he has to do is stand there and that is enough (possible God complex?!?). The swan seems to be depicting Libra with the balance. Maybe the woman was delivered first (from the mythical to the earthly) and the man comes second.

I don’t get the symbolism in this pic at all but its clear that the Swan is fixing her gaze on something just below the horizon line… if I were him I would bust a move one way or the other and not just stand there in self-absorbed poseur fashion. Maybe this is why Our Lady of The Patio set this up with the Swan in the first place? So she can roll on the floor (patio) laughing her arse off when it pecks him.

    Good one Anon.

    Pisces male contemplating the “abyss”.

    Female observes what his choice will be as she’s already been initiated into the underworld….(subconscious depicted by the water….) and has emerged onto the dry ground (terra firma) of everyday perception with her newly aquired wisdoms.

    Soul as Swan deposits the male to that place of jumping off point. Or being a Pisces male, is he stoned and the long way down into the abyss is just an illusion when all the while it was just a few feet?

    The longest journey always starts with just the first step though, eh?

    ATTENTION ALL SAGGO’S….SUN IN THE SIGN OF THE ARCHER.
    Half animal half human & always the edgy balance between the higher & lower
    parts of ourselves, aiming for the stars.
    But, shiva shakti, them men’s are handsome dudes.
    My libido is going thro’ the roof as it has supressed coz of Butch (he gave love a bad name & i cannot separate sex & love) & the way he trained & coerced me into being everything i’m really not, but hey it was kinda fun being a porn star for a while) but at what cost now to me & the new Saggo’s that’s just re entered my lfe after 4 months absence. He has been a client for 3 years, says he loves the environment created (ha ‘The Sacred Space’) ;-)
    It was he who helped me say NO once & for ALL to Butch. It was crazy at the time, me, the proto Sagg
    woman with 2 Sagg men, of which the new one was married, so we were on strict rules from me ie no sex.
    Then he disappeared. Thought oh well better coz it was going places & he was married, it also made it extra hard to tear me away from Butch as he wasn’t around but i DID it, then both gone!

    Interestingly i was at my hairdresser when married Sag contacted me to see me professionally, as he always has, but i was cool & contained, then he told me his wife has left & he had been up north (He is a Renovator). I was so distressed about his separation as he was my Student, instead
    WE connected. SHE who has real control over emotions ( a lesson taken to new heights from Butch lol),
    would not return to what had been before the absence.
    Been there done that with men over my lifetime, so no more, just taking up where we left off without
    discussion & a bit of depth work.
    No dreams of marriage for me & never ever has been since world travel commenced in my 20′s.
    He is younger than me by 12 years, with 3 sons between 17-24 years, 2 at home, she moved out.
    He says he’s happy with his life but had to say ‘Fuqing WOMEN’ & retracted it at the same time i was thinking ‘Fuqing MEN!
    Sweet Things, this is a once only rave, but, it’s Sun in Sag & last month of year.
    (BTW, the 2012 thing is a call for evolving ourselves tout suite, spiritually, physically & emotionally).

    So Renovation Sagg returned on 17 Nov (Moon in Sagg), it has taken the usual 48 hours to process, which was yesterday & am having waves of desire for him, it’s the weekend! He is sleeping ALONE.
    Have stopped myself from texting him, tho’ wanting to bigtime.
    That would start the booty call business again that i was in denial about, giving him all the excuses in the world for his careless attitude toward me & with the 20-20 vision, hindsight gives you, i was challenging him in many areas subconciously.(Should never have called his Teacher of Martial Arts an Eskimo as i did, maybe i insulted the great god of chinese martial arts & Butch was Bill as the punisher.)

    The cool change has come with life giving rain, so sheesh, yeah, gotta put clothes ON, after a liberating
    2 weeks of heat & nudity ;-)
    Yesterday found out my 2 coffee makes (barista?) at the lunch shop are both Saggo’s & have just fallen in love. Her, Swedish blonde, him half Greek & Italian, ’round 22 years old, bless ‘em.
    My dear friends on this site………….’YOU ARE SURROUNDED’ :-)
    Uber & other Therapists out there if you are reading this, what do i do about recently separated man
    i am v v attracted to? He is fantastic looking & it’s going to be hard to massage his body & keep my
    integrity & professionalism, when he just so my type it’s excruciating this news of breakup.
    And this is so coincidental as i am preparing to retire & next year or 2012 go back to Polynesia for
    3 months for the transit.
    Quote for today on Moon Calendar ‘what we believe we concieve’.
    Guess, there’s my answer. May be i shouldn’t give up on love.
    I dare myself to press the send button.

      So glad you’re not giving up on love Pegs.

      That’s a toughy because your profession requires physical contact. I am getting this correctly?

      Will it be tantric type massage? Or just massage?

      From a visual point of view, his gaze towards the swan’s head makes you look there and then follow up the line of the swan’s neck – which becomes an extension of his penis – erect and hugely long – and which simultaneously ‘enters’ the centre of the swan’s spread wings. The wings perfectly reflect the open legs of the sitting woman (one knee up and her vagina is also directly facing the whole scene of the swan’s head entering into his opened wings (or the man’s huge and long penis entering her own vagina). The shifting colour and stuff reflects that it is HER desire and the whole thing is what she wants!

    Brilliant Myst, the Budgie’s there!

    SweatPea, the budgie is kinda our national bird.
    We once called Kylie Minogue ‘The Singing Budgie’.

    Yes, Hon, physical contact indeed, especially the synchronised breathing. Yikes, THAT’S
    intimate, much more than sex (as sex meaning enclosure as the fems call it).

    I do both lomi lomi & tantric massage, mostly combined with yogic breathing.
    Yes, i am a member of Theosophical Society..A Bailey, Leadbetter, Blavatsky, old school Theosophists.
    Blavatsky was wild, i like the radicals

    It has only happened once before in a whole 15 years, that a client kept coming back (it’s usually a 3 session program, then top up occasionally) fortnightly until i put a brake on for monthly only.
    Strangely the first was a Medico that looked like George Clooney when he was in that Doctor Show,
    but was totally silvered hair from when he was 18 years old. He was 20 years younger & as he was O/S
    for much of the 5 years he was my Lover, and only saw him 4 times a year. The day he left for China foreva & we said goodbye, was the day i met Butch thro error txt on Valentine’s Day 2004.
    That was a strange fate. Now Renovator Sagg, same thing, wild attraction. The solution is for him NOT to be a client & allow him into my private life, which meant i could drink champagne with him :-) .
    That’s how i worked it for Medico Man (& lost money every time i saw him) hoping he would buy me a Mac as i gift. He was on 5000 a WEEK & me on 500, apart from age difference, wage as well.
    I was sad after he left for China & i saw the movie ‘Something’s gotta Give’ with Keanu Reeves being in love with Diane Keaton, a Doctor & an older woman. It just couldn’t be.
    He wanted us to be seen socially but each time i was too self conscious to continue.
    Funny,but i lack the enthusiasm women have now for younger men, for Doctors,Martial Arts-ing Sheriff’s, & the black T-Shirt-paint & artistically paint splattered work jeans.
    Or Lust Left Out? Better than Love Locked Out? Or is it the same thing of late. I’m asking coz sometimes
    i feel like that alien on the bottom of the swimming pool, grokking what they had just learned.
    Stranger in a Strange Land.

    Revealing about me isn’t that. I came from the Free Love generation only to find it wasn’t free.
    Doesn’t writing make you see the patterns, join the dots & i see other powers at work here,my spilling all here is giving me great hindsight & clarity.
    Thankful for the space to put it out there as i don’t go out much working from home, so feedback
    is appreciated.
    Think water is my answer, like you, off to the pool. Now that will be a revelation.
    Maybe settle for chakra cleanse in the shower :-) :-)

    Scorps a licious, luv that budgie, sheer brilliance. We are a fab lot are we not.

      “I came from the Free Love generation only to find it wasn’t free.”

      Aw, Babes yes, isn’t that the truth? The most precious things have a price lest they be taken for granted I learned myself, as a giver of that love.

      My neurosurgen that I dated breifly made six figures a week…and there I was scrapin’ on disability with only coffee and toast in the house. He had looked in my fridge and there was barely anything in there….”A single girl’s fridge” I told him. Not really, and not what I would have always preferred.

      Loved, loved, loved! “Somethings Gotta Give”. Only thing that kept me sane an occupied on an emotional flight back to the states from Munich as me and the Pisces were a bit skiddish..At least I was in 2004 as was not getting what I needed from him.

      But back to you….So yes, maybe Renovator (like that name..he,he), on a personal basis and not a client, eh? I’d certainly do that just for the champagne!

      Oh do keep us posted Pegs! And Tahiti…oh my heart aches for a land I don’t know but happy for you.

      And DID have to look up Budgie as was left out of the loop. Thought it was a “smuggler” type underwear for men…I think…lol :)

      Do like the radicals, yes. Still contemplating my revolution, *sigh*….Maybe Uranus in Aries is the “go” as you beloved Aussies say.

        Sweetpea, budgie smugglers are type of men’s swimwear, called that ’cause it looks like they’ve smuggled a budgie down there. :)

        Hang around here often enough (as you do) and you’ll be well versed in Aussie slang.

        Here’s a great website to save you googling.

      I’m not sure what ethics are required of you pegs. Psychs, medicos etc are forbidden from socializing at all with patients. They can’t even have a coffee with them. Some complementary modalities don’t have any regulations, and I guess it depends on whether a relationship with a client could harm him, you or your reputation/business.

      I’ve been to shows/performances by artist patients and had a drink with them after, but find it much less complicated not to socialize (unless I knew them socially before). It protects patients, but it’s tough on therapists. I know what you mean. Certainly I’ve treated attractive men, but kept it professional, because I can’t afford to get a reputation for crossing the professional boundary. It makes it simpler if it’s out of the question from the get go.

      Either way, good luck!
