Notes from Underground: Vibration spanning the decades (New Years Weekend 2010/2011)
Last New Year’s Eve, the card for the “final outcome” in my Tarot reading was Temperance, which represents vibration.*Â Â And what a coincidence: guess what tonight’s psytrance party is called?
It’s been a long decade. Ten years ago, things were spiralling down: the dot-com crash, a stolen presidential election, with Enron and 9/11 fast approaching.  The ten years since then have been pretty depressing, watching our economy and civil liberties go down the drain as the rich white guys in charge struggle to keep everybody else down and the plutocracy gets greedier and greedier. I’m sooooo ready to put the Awful Aughts to rest and start moving forward.
First though, let’s take a few moments to remember that there was plenty of good stuff over the last decade too.
At the societal level, the last couple of years have included the emergence of social networks, choosing hope over fear (at least partially), reenergized womanist, mujerist, feminist, and anti-racist activists, Wikileaks, and an emerging coalition that’s neocons’ worst nightmare and the future of civil liberties.   So the trend is positive — and momentum is building.
And at the personal level, all I can say is … wow.
