...lots of mystical magic then indulged in by this aspect of the mystery that is also my-story...!! :-)

...& of I went on a big riff on my Facebook...!!!...:

Very good, but not 'quite' definitive explanation of the paired dancing forces of both moon light & its ecliptic shadow...shall we go on, or shall we get on...?...with the show...& it must go on...!...go Freddie!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ecliptic…

...& if you look at the GIF carefully what do you see...?...the polarity that causes this species & cultural wide intimation of the cycle of life & death, that has slowly become the concrete scientific belief, better known as, 'the arrow of time'...ever onward & thus ever clockwise, according to the materialist human species, Homo Sapiens anyways...so what do you see in the GIF...?...that our Mother Gaia orbits Sol in anti-clockwise motion, the cosmic opposite arrow of time, which is then also mirrored on the dual ecliptic plane by the 'space gap' on the [snap!!] opposite side of Sol, where if you had a Spiritual twin of Gaia, the 2 sisters would be 'in the moment' as time, both, both backward & forward, would be occurring in synchronicity such that a portal may be available in the centre-point singularity of the hearts of Gaia in the shadow of Sol...the paired dancing forces of both moon light & ecliptic shadow are 'in the mythic moment' yet again...this wedding of the 2 arrows of time will unveil that IT IS ALL telepathy in motion...

...no past, no future, all un/known in 'The NOW', timeless wisdom re-finally attained, even onwards, outside of time, ever more Unified we become once the limits have been embraced & overcome...e-motional power thrills, whilst compassion attracts, & this born of lust, but best when in Love, entanglement will always deliver...re-birthing is the symbolic image of our eternal passion for demonstrating the necessity of compassion...the birth experience is the epitomy of purest empathy...which if rejected by the patriarchal male of our species, becomes eventually the evolutionary failure of Corporate State Warfare, with a capital 'W'...psychopathically shoving us closer to the cliff edge of species wide suicide with the ever present threat of 'Total War'...

...only natural that birth is the ultimate boundary condition between death & life...just as murder is the same pseudo ultimate in the symbolic cognate of life & then death...co-dependent & thus mutually exclusive...or...mutually entwined & thus attractively inclusive...go Hermes!

You got 3 minutes til midnight, make these few minutes count like your life depended on it...!!...

...because it does; doesn't it...??...

...& then we unveil the oldest of old New Years resolution, the Revelation is near, does one dare dropping the Ego Illusion & innocently enter the Apocalypse that is the annihilation of 'the one' with The One...the re-evolution will then re-commence...

...crucified by fana...!!...resurrected by coming forth...

1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th...1+ encapsulates the w/hole...a circling spiral vortex of pi e/merging with phi to create life's fractal Mercurial magic trick of conscious awareness...it's so beautiful...my journey through philosophy, has evolved into my own, 'my-story,' of unified duality, in a trilogy, into the mystery of 'philerosophi...agape' as the 4th, that returns to the 1st...

The Axiom of Maria...

1,2,3,4...love, love, wisdom, love...1+...so simple really...it's lovely, you're lovely, we're all embodiment's of the One Love...the 'missing link' Storge evolves within 'agape' into 'philia' naturally over generations, thru the generations, thru 'eros', so is in a sense, the rare, near invisible, DNA that runs thru it all...as we are All ultimately family after all...the human family skin, bones & everything between & beyond, it's ALL in storage in there...can you feel it...??...throughout your body!!
Its so beautiful that You are here, with Me, & together we are One...NAMASTE...!!

But to stay...??...a joyous mystical Union or a violent splintering into chaos...the choice is ours...with ever passing moment...in the moment...

"It’s just a choice between love & fear," as Saint Bill said…what will it be??

I say encore...!!...encore...!!

*****Idealism vs. materialism*****

Modes of explanation in social science...

How do people analyze the causes of social events and phenomena? What do they focus on in their discussions and how do they define major concepts? What sort of forces do they cite as more "fundamental" than others?

Suppose: A causes B

For an idealist (1), A is an ideal factor.
mental
spiritual

Idealists emphasize "ideal" factors. Reality is basically made up of spirt. Spiritual forces or people's states of mind are the most important factors to look at to understand society.

For a materialist (2), A is a material factor.
physical
environmental
economic
concrete
historical

Physical, environmental, economic, or concrete historical conditions are the most important factors to look at to understand society according to the materialist.

Dialectical materialism (Marxism)
Synthesis of 1 and 2 with emphasis on 2 + the philosophy of internal relations

The Materialist Conception of History: "The production of the material means of subsistence and the economic development of a people forms the basis for the social and political institutions created as well as for the legal conceptions and ideology that arises.(Engels)

Many philosophies of social science try to avoid determinism or reductionism. These approaches are often called dogmatic or fundamentalist.

Determinism: A causes B and it could not be otherwise.

Reductionism: B can be completely explained by reference to A (with no left overs).
