And now another old drawing from 2022 and also the final drawing of my drawings of James Bond actors from the 60th anniversary back in 2022 and this time it’s “Daniel Craig” who is the sixth and “as of now” recent actor to play James Bond from 2006 to 2021 in total of 5 Bond films “Casino Royale (2006), Quantum Of Solace (2008), Skyfall (2012), Spectre (2015) and No Time To Die (2021)” Daniel Craig had plenty of some film roles before Bond and been got to work with Steven Spielberg in Munich (2005) and even one of the TV movies of Young Indiana Jones but when Daniel was officially announced to be the next James Bond, everyone at the time was universally hated and most people on the internet didn’t like the way he looked at the press conference and expected him be a “terrible James Bond” but when Daniel finally got to showcase his performance as Bond, both critics and audiences were really surprised at how outstanding his Bond was for trying to be a lot more of a darker James Bond take basically his take was more faithful to the Ian Fleming’s novels being more serious and dark compare to the previous 5 Bonds, I do love Daniel’s performance as Bond and I especially love both Casino Royale and Skyfall being his best Bond films but his their 3 films didn’t seem to live up compare to his best Bond films but I still love Daniel’s performance as James Bond and he truly showed that he was capable at playing James Bond and managed to be more faithful to the Fleming novels but I wish half of his era was better executed, sometime during the development of NTTD it was revealed that Daniel Craig was officially retiring the role once the film releases, even after and during his time as Bond he would still get movie roles like Knives Out, Cowboys And Aliens, The Girl With The Dragon etc. and is still getting more roles today, Daniel is still praised by the Bond community although some noticed that half of his films didn’t hold up but he is still talked about to this and Daniel Craig will be remembered as the Serious Bond, James Bond! 🖤🤍🖤🤍

Part 2 from 'William Burroughs and the Algebra of Need'

2: The Return of the North Node

But for Burroughs love expressed itself more like obession as revealed in Luca Guadagnino’s latest film ‘Queer’ based on the autobiographical novel from 1985. In that work Burroughs comes close to revealing the underlying drive for finding love usually with young men. He seeks a kind of ‘telepathy’ from his lovers that goes beyond the usual connection, a wordless communication of feelings. The character of William Lee (Burroughs) is self loathing and socially awkward. He is also emotionally sensitive which reflects Burroughs' Neptune in Cancer inconjunct to his Ascendant. That is likely to make the native experience emotional disappointments, escaping into drink and drugs. So he's a loner, an outsider, never getting what he wants. The search for telepathy is the solution.

Guadagnino (Leo) suggests  that this may happen using the tropical mixture of Yagé now known as ayahuasca. Whether it is a hallucination or not, there is an extraordinary fusion in a choreographed scene where Burroughs (Daniel Craig, Pisces) and Eugene Allerton (Drew Starkey, Scorpio) blur the boundaries of body and soul as the two melt into ectoplasmic single entity. Telepathy is a very Pluto-in- Aquarius phenomenon to be talking about right now- and for the next 20 years. Burroughs supposed that telepathy occurs through Egyptian-style pictographs but that was in the era before AI.

Whenever someone like Burroughs comes back into greater prominence in a celebrated film, I supect the astrology has something to say about it. Sure enough, the North Node continues to work posthumously. His North Node is at 16° of Pisces. The North Node has just arrived in Pisces so we are being reminded of all Piscean qualities including art, music, addiction to drugs, self sabotage, escapism and clinging to illusions, so Burroughs from his discarnate position somewhere beyond will have a transiting Node to natal Node conjunction. This point is significant because the Node slows down on that 16° as if to emphasise exactly that point. The North Node is always retrograde but from November 4th to November 17th 2025 it hovers at this degree momentarily going direct. The Nodes do this dance about 10% of the time.

The film is already in the news and has been favourably reviewed. So in November it could be the time when Daniel Craig receives further nominations and recognition for his portrayal of Burroughs. Or, either the film or William Burroughs will come back into the news again for another reason. The film’s UK release date was December 13th 2024. This was when transiting Saturn was on Burroughs’ Chiron/North Node in Pisces, and the Moon aligned perfectly at 11° of Gemini. And a Gemini Moon highlights someone who thinks their emotions rather than feels them.Guadagnino’s North Node/Mars happens to land on Burroughs’ Venus/Uranus in Aquarius and he talks of a long-standing motivation to make this film going back decades.

Burroughs included references to astrology here and there in his writing. Usually it’s a side swipe, poking fun at people who believe in the stars and planets. In Queer there’s a character called Tom Weston who is an 'amateur astrologer'. He does not get predictions on the races correct and misleads the narrator. Weston is called 'an old whore'. He crawls into a bar and the narrator says that "That Saturn Retrrogade dragging your ass, man?'"Weston replies, "My ass is dragging because I need a beer." Then he goes on to say it's not good 'auspices' to have a beer because "Venus is in the 69th house with a randy Neptune". It is part of Burroughs' darkly comic style. Some might say 'twisted'.

That it is there at all gives astrology some status in the 20th century novel. Yes, the astrologers are portrayed as wackos and not the finest of exemplars of this intuitive science.

At the beginning of The Wild Boys: A Book of the Dead (1969) there is more fun with the use of astrology. He introduces a character called Tía Dolores who sits under a stairwell in a lair padded by rats and astrology magazines. She talks of her 'noonday eye' because her eyeballs are like two spinning clocks: one going clockwise and the other counter clockwise.  It's satire but the fact is that Burroughs knew some astrology enough to make it a device in his work.

Burroughs thought there was no such thing as coincidence. For Burroughs every event in whichever order it happened was imbued with significance. This is also how astrologers see the world as they interweave the hermetic notion as above, so below, as within so without into daily life. Nothing is dismissed as trivial or unimportant. While he never specifically referred to Jung's idea of 'synchronicity', it appears he intuitively 'got' that point - that coincidence can be 'meaningful'. This allowed his cut-up technique where the pattern that words fall into creates multiple new interpretations more like a divinatory art.

Renowned singer and actor Omar Apollo reached a significant milestone in his career with the release of his new movie, ‘Queer.’ This project, which celebrates LGBTQ+ culture through the lens of cinema, features his bold move as he shares an impactful full-body nude scene as part of the film's exploration of sexuality and identity. In honor of this groundbreaking moment, Apollo embraced the release with pride, drawing attention from fans and media alike. The Allure of ‘Queer’: A Star-Studded Cast ‘Queer,’ directed by acclaimed filmmaker Luca Guadagnino, also features Daniel Craig and Drew Starkey. The film adapts elements from William S. Burroughs's literature, allowing audiences to embark on a journey with the character William Lee, an expatriate in Mexico. Capturing the essence of Burroughs's narrative, the movie delves into the themes of identity and self-discovery as Lee navigates through various bars in search of intimate connections with other men. Omar Apollo’s Role and Daring Performance Omar Apollo takes on an intriguing role early in the film where his character encounters Lee in a bar. The tension builds as their scenes unfold with palpable eroticism, leading to an audacious full-body scene starring Apollo. This portrayal not only adds depth to his character but also serves as a testament to his dedication to the craft of acting. The chemistry between Apollo's and Craig's characters offers a powerful commentary on the complexities of queer relationships, driven by authenticity and raw emotion. [caption id="attachment_16441" align="alignnone" width="1024"] Discover Omar Apollo's groundbreaking role in the 2025 film 'Queer,' featuring a striking nude scene alongside Daniel Craig. Celebrate Apollo's fearless portrayal exploring LGBTQ+ themes and identity.[/caption] Celebrating With Enthusiasm: Streaming Release and Social Media Buzz Earlier this week, the film’s distribution company, A24, announced ‘Queer’ is now available for streaming in the United States via platforms like Prime Video and iTunes, offering more access to this enthralling cinematic piece. To celebrate this new journey into digital domains, Omar Apollo used Instagram as his launchpad, posting a nude photo from a sensual scene with Craig. Although the original still has an edit employing a playful tongue-out emoji for modesty, fans have assured through social comments that the film itself remains unaltered. Apollo's post was met with curiosity and excitement from fans and industry peers. Fellow artist and friend Troye Sivan’s inquisitive comment, "Which platform?" highlights the anticipation that ‘Queer’ has generated among audiences eager to experience its narrative. Behind the Scenes: Apollo’s Thoughts on Nudity and On-Screen Vulnerability In previous interviews, Omar Apollo candidly shared his feelings regarding the nude scene he shot with Daniel Craig. Describing his initial response to the proposition, Apollo expressed immediate enthusiasm, emphasizing the honor of acting alongside Craig. In an interview with Out magazine last year, he remarked, “They called me and told me about the scene and how sexual it was. I immediately said yes. It’s Daniel Craig. Of course, I’m in.” Apollo’s comfort with vulnerability on screen originates from his personal experiences. “It wasn’t something that scared me,” he explained, “I was like: ‘It’s sort of my reality.’ It’s nothing new to me.” Such openness reflects his commitment to authenticity in both his professional and personal life, resonating with audiences who appreciate the representation of LGBTQ+ narratives. As Omar Apollo continues to explore diverse roles, his participation in ‘Queer’ marks a significant chapter not only for his career but also in the broader discourse of LGBTQ+ visibility in media. This film exemplifies how art and cinema can spark discussions about identity, love, and the complexities within different relationships.
