Bohemian Stars:A summer party of self exploration

The lovely Parpar herself


Bohemian Stars is my friend Parpar's (means Butterfly) business all about astrology from many cultures. She is an effervescent lady I had met through Photography class for journalism. She has also been a jewel of a model for my own business,Jonah Elliot.

She held an intimate party at her (now former) ocean side apartment. It was a perfectly warm summer night with yummie foods from Emporium Thai Cuisine as we started getting to relax with her and her baby bunnies.

 There were many astrology,tarrot and spiritual games for everyone to check out. I played with the Astro dice for hours, obviously because I am a dnd lover. (Druid for life!) 

She asked us for our birth time,place and date before the party to analyze our charts accurately. I am still a novice with astrology information so I'll explain how this part works best I can.

The chart comes up as a circle of 12 houses representing where the planets are in your sign. Each area effects a different part of your personality. For example I have a Virgo moon which is why I am quiet most of the time. I may be a Leo sun and be as playful & generous as any Leo might but my Virgo moon makes me reserved and a bit serious. If you've had the time to know me well enough you know this with out even knowing astrology charts. Thus it's true, so HA!

Since I am a bit private too I wont go deeper into the rest of my chart or anyone else's for that matter because it's not mine to share. ^_^

Parpar is quite talented at explaining what each house means,the ways it might effect us and how other signs may see us. She is a lovely mystery with even more knowledge of spiritual and cultural info than we had time to find out about.  Another way to look at this if you don't subscribe to the spiritual view of it is through a psychological one.

Everyday you judge someone on their actions towards you or someone else and vice versa. As Plato and many others have said in various ways "Be Kind. For everyone is fighting a hard battle." I  know that sounds like a passive thing to say but it's not like you're not allowed to disagree with someone's views or even dislike them for it.

 Astrology and like belief are a great way to analyze someone more effectively because you begin to understand why they act a certain way. Beyond that person telling you their story one can understand more about why it effected them in a certain way because of the patterns of each persons chart.

Ultimately what I got from this party was a deeper insight into how astrology works. I got to hang out with some of my favorite people,eat delicious thai food and meet new friends! In the long run it really helps my character writing skills and I'm learning to be more social on a leisurely level. Yeah yeah yeah I am a shy hermit geek whom lives in her art worlds.
