Connect with the octopus

http://www.whats-your-sign.com/octopus-animal-symbolism.html

Quote from above site that takes the whole Froctopus concept deeper than a watery abyss:

the octopus pulls a secondary veil over reality by ejecting a thick, black ink into the waters as a method of escape. Dark clouds left in her wake leave the octopus’ attackers lost and confused.

This is a metaphor for illusion. The octopus reminds us that nothing is as it seems. Behind our physicality there is a vast reality imbued with subtle wonder and shimmery brilliance. By observing the mystery of the octopus, we are encouraged to peek behind this veil of reality for ourselves.

This peeking about is the opening of consciousness. This process is also seen in the animal symbolism of the octopus by her spiraling limbs. In symbolism, myth and legend the spiral is a representation of expanding consciousness and the ongoing creative process of the universe.

Take a moment to observe this spiraling motion of the octopus. Now we see why the Celts, Minoans, Greeks and other cultures associated the evolutionaryspiral symbolism with the octopus.

Connect with the octopus through conscious thought, meditation, invocation, and any other path that you deem beneficial to your growth. How do we do this? Here are some suggestions:

• Ask the octopus for its guidance
• Respectfully ask to enter its immense energy system just prior to meditation
• Make up and sing songs about the octopus
• Write about her, with free-association writing, poems, epics, blogging – whatever - just start writing your impressions of the octopus
• Create dance moves in her honor that mimic the octopus’ movements
• Paint her, draw her, pin up images of her on your corkboards or walls

Froctopus and the Fishes (the CephaloGod)

this is my octopost....

In the coming weeks Mr. Curd and Dr. Octopus will be formulating plans to construct the first ever visual representation of 'Froctopus (the fractal octopus) and the Fishes'. As the omnipotent creator and giver of life to all cephalopods and other lesser species, such as homo sapiens, Froctopus plans to appear to said lesser species (and any cephalopods present) at this years Secret Garden Party Festivalinium in all his phantasmagorical splendipidnous.

And what of Mr. Curd and Dr. Octopus's contraption, what kind of whimsical tool will they use to throw back our perception and allow us to glimpse the 'CephaloGod', I hear you ask? A piano. A piano?! Yes, a piano. A mortal will be invited up to a piano to bear their soul and lose themselves in the sounds of their own inner monologue...

Through the technologically mechanical wizardry of Mr C and Dr O the Froctopus will appear as a psychedelic silhouetted vision above the piano, surrounded by its fishes looping infinitely around as it dances to the rhythm of the music, kicking its legs which carry self similar representations of itself which carry self similar representations of themselves which carry self similar representations of themselves which carry self similar representations of themselves which ca......................
