#niu dreams

[niuniente]

I had a dream were I was asked by an art curator what did I think about all the art from different artists I had seen in the past 2h bus drive (we drove past outdoor exhibitions).

I replied: "It was all very inspiring". I could tell the curator was not happy with this answer because it's something everyone says. So, I continued:

"It was inspiring. The majority of the art was very dark and gritty, clearly made in a state of anger, but even then I was able to find a little bit of love in them. Love. They were made with love. Even if the artist was angry about their topic and wanted to show this, it still stems from a state of passion, which is always caused by love. If you do not care about something, you don't think about it. You don't create it. It doesn't interest you. So, even in the state of anger and hate, it has been made with love. We are unable to create anything outside of love."

Bai Heb is reincarnation of one of the Emperor's daughters? Bai He adopted by Wukogn and Macaque and neither realizing this is the Jade Emperor's daughter because the daughter she was the reincarnation of was one of the few that were never public knowledge? Jade Emperor discovering this when he lays dying and realized the mortal girl Sun Wukong had tried so hard to legally adopt and care for in both the eyes of the gods and the eyes of mortals is none other than his own daughter because he'd never met her in person?

referencing the weird dream I had about Bai He interacting with the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother.

I think thats what the dream was implying.

Jade Emperor and Queen Mother have some bad history regarding their daughters.

The specific one mentioned in the dream - Zhinu? She was the seventh born and a goddess of weaving; she wove clouds into heavenly vestements for her parents.

And is the protag of "The Cowherd and the Weaver Girl".

One day she fell in love with a mortal cowherd named Niu Lang. A big celestial no-no. Especially she and Niu Lang had two kids. A even bigger celestial no-no!

Zhinu feels homesick one day and uses her enchanted cloud-clothing to visit her parents. But they won't let her leave. The Queen Mother is so adamant on keeping Zhinu from Earth that she tears a rip in the sky that becomes the Heavenly River (the Milky Way).

On earth, Niu Lang figured out that his wife has been kidnapped by her family. His loyal ox turns out to be a disposed god of cattle (weird detail but who knows, maybe Shennong was hanging around) who manages to boat Niu Lang and the two kids to a spot just across the Heavenly River where the married couple can see, but not touch one another. Only once a year can divine birds help carry the family across the river to reunite with Zhinu.

The story is meant to be an explanation for the literally "star-crossed" stars Vega and Altair (with baby stars Beta-Aquilae/Alshain and Gamma-Aquilae/Tarazed their kids) which meet eachother along the Milky Way once a year.

Not much more stories come from what happens to Zhinu and her mortal family after wards. But I imagine she's not on speaking terms with her parents. In my LMK idea, they're chilling in a piece of deep space away from the nonsense of the Celestial Realm. Having literally become stars and transcended the cycle of rebirth in a way that none of the celestials can imagine.

In addition to Zhinu, my chinese mythos storyline has the royal couple have had a falling out with;

Songzi (1st born) - was so disgusted by their treatment of Zhinu that she willingly went into the cycle of rebirth and eventually became Guanyin, Bodhisattva of Mercy.

Yin Wuming (2nd born) - reincarnated and became a demon hunter + Nezha's mother, and rejected the offer of reascension.

Princess Iron Fan (born after Zhinu) - who was expelled for falling in love/marrying the Demon Bull King.

So where does Bai He fall into this?

No idea.

Then again... imagine the heartbreak that would have occured if their truly youngest/last-born did not survive their earliest years. A daughter that they hid from a world ravaged by celestial war, but ultimately lost anyway to disease or misfortune. They would never by able to recover emotionally.

Now imagine that tiny soul reincarnated into a little mortal girl, who somehow contained enough divine power to harbour the White Bone Demon (a possible avatar of death itself) and not immeditaly breakdown into dust?

A pair of stone monkeys and/or a human scholar and a pig are now accidentally the guardians of the youngest Celestial Princess. Very magical girl-esque backstory for Bai He.

And the Jade Emperor only realises how familar the little girl at his side is in his final moments...

[xinyuehui]

Nobody, literally nobody:

Me: What if I did a Guangyan and try to read (all) the manhua in Yiyong's room ヽ(✿ﾟ▽ﾟ)ノ

Here's short reviews of them, some of them are very Yiyong teenboy kind of manhua, and some of them have similar themes to onhct in general

Guangyan is correct, these are all completed works 🥺

上上籤 Loss of The Holy Seal by YinYin. Only 5 chapters, I read the whole thing. Plot: Heaven is in a frantic mess due to the Holy Seal being lost in the mortal realm. Which uncovers a story about a water goddess, Ling Yu, who feels helpless when she can not help humans who are suffering from natural disasters. Set in modern day with Chinese mythical elements.

地獄遊行 lit. Hell Parade (no official English title I can find) by 布克 L.buBu (the artist is on tumblr @/lbubu) Plot: Fantasy setting. Protag Aili was born with incredible magician abilities compared to a lot of normals but he seems to be uninterested in his magician abilities to save the world.

異人茶跡 Formosa Oolong Tea by 張季雅 Kiya. Plot: The story revolves around the endeavours of John Dodd, a Scottish merchant, and his comprador Li Chunsheng, during the Qing Dynasty. It explores their significant contributions to the growth and establishment of the tea industry in northern Taiwan. This one is pretty good, if you're tea drinker this is some good history!

狗臉的歲月─記1629梯 My Life As A Dog by 李鴻欽 Li Hong Chin. Plot: The main protagonist enlists in the army and tells a story of his time there. This one isn't my thing but Yiyong probably likes a bit of a "lad" comic.

閻王帖 Invitation of Yama by 柚子 You Zih. This one is fun I like it, it reminds me of Hoozuki No Reitetsu and Fukigen Na Mononokean. The protagonist possesses Ying Yang eyes meaning he can see ghosts. After an accident, he meets a guy who wears a mask and is a worker in the underworld. Mask guy's weapon is a massive calligraphy brush!

無名歌 lit. Untitled Song by ROCKAT 搖滾貓. This one is on webtoon! Protagonist Taiyang had a rock music dream, now as a "failure" adult he works in an entertainment company as a manager. He bumps into a girl busking on the street who happened to recognise him from his early music days and has every album (2) his band and him once produced. Then onwards he rediscovers his love for music... probably, I didn't finish it lol

and I couldn't be bothered for now to read the rest:

雲之獸：來自遠古的守護者 Beast of Clouds: The Guardian of Ancient Times by 漢寶包Hambuck

1661國姓來襲 Kongxinga Z by 李隆杰 Li Lung Chieh

九命人 Nine Lives Man by 姜振台 Ah Tui

FLAVORS魔廚 by 爆野家BAKUNOYA

Okay I did read this one though, even though I'm not sure if Yiyong has it or not:

守娘 Tan-Tsiu-Niu by 小峱峱 Nownow. This is a phenomenal heavy read. It's inspired by Tan Tsiu Niu, a women who lived in the Qing Dynasty that died of a tragic murder. Story has themes of folklore, ghosts and superstitions. Main protagonist Jie Niang grew up in a family who did not force foot binding onto her, however that caused a lot of gossip around her "big feet" and how she could ever get married off like that. Through an incident of a women in her village, she begins to uncover what horrors the villagers have been doing to baby girls and women. Let's just say I'm not the same person after reading this.

(I shall update the reviews whenever I find time to finish the rest (●'◡'●)

[useless-catalanfacts]

Hello! Another tumblr user I follow has posed a challenge: memorize one poem per month in 2024. I would like to include at least one poem in Catalan in my journey. Could you recommend any good poems or poets for this?

Hello! We have many very talented poets. My favourite poet is Salvador Espriu, other good ones are Miquel Martí i Pol, Vicent Andrés Estellés, Jacint Verdaguer, Maria-Mercè Marçal, Pere Quart, Josep Carner, Ausiàs March, Joan Maragall, Montserrat Abelló, J.V. Foix, Gabriel Ferrater, Joana Raspall, Joan Alcover, Enric Casasses, among others.

I'll add 7 of my favourite short/short-ish poems (+translation to English) under the cut. Poetry is very personal and these are just the ones that I really like, but I'll be happy if anyone else wants to add more of their favourite Catalan poems.

1. Enyore un temps que no és vingut encara (I Miss a Time That's Not Yet Come) by Vicent Andrés Estellés.

Enyore un temps que no és vingut encara com un passat d’accelerada lluita, de combatius balcons i d’estendards, irat de punys, pacífic de corbelles, nou de cançons, parelles satisfetes, el menjador obert de bat a bat i el sol entrant fins al darrer racó. Em moriré, però l’enyore ja, aquest moment, aquest ram, aquest dia, que m’ha de fer aixecar de la fossa veient passar la multitud contenta.

Translation:

I miss a time that has not arrived yet like a past of accelerated fight, of combative balconies and standards, angry of fists, peaceful of sickles, new of songs, satisfied couples, the living room wide open and the sun entering until the last corner. I will die, but I miss it already, this moment, this bouquet, this day, that shall make me get up from the grave watching the happy crowd pass by.

2. Assaig del càntic en el temple (Attempted Canticle in the Temple) by Salvador Espriu.

Oh, que cansat estic de la meva covarda, vella, tan salvatge terra, i com m’agradaria d’allunyar-me’n, nord enllà, on diuen que la gent és neta i noble, culta, rica, lliure, desvetllada i feliç! Aleshores, a la congregació, els germans dirien desaprovant: «Com l’ocell que deixa el niu, així l’home que se’n va del seu indret», mentre jo, ja ben lluny, em riuria de la llei i de l’antiga saviesa d’aquest meu àrid poble. Però no he de seguir mai el meu somni i em quedaré aquí fins a la mort. Car sóc també molt covard i salvatge i estimo a més amb un desesperat dolor aquesta meva pobra, bruta, trista, dissortada pàtria.

Translation:

How tired I am of this my craven, ancient, savage fatherland; and how it would delight me to leave, going north, where they say that people are noble and clean, cultured, rich, free, awake/unsupervised and happy! Then, my brethren would tell the congregation, disapprovingly: "Leaving his native place, a man becomes like a bird leaving the nest", while I, in the distance, would laugh at the law and the ancient wisdom of this my arid people. But the dream will never be followed, I’ll stay here until my death. For I too am full of cowardice and savagery, and with a desperate pain I love this my poor, unclean, sad, unlucky fatherland.

3. Divisa (Motto) by Maria-Mercè Marçal. This one's short and easy!

A l’atzar agraeixo tres dons: haver nascut dona, de classe baixa i nació oprimida. I el tèrbol atzur de ser tres voltes rebel.

Translation:

I am grateful to fate for three gifts: to have been born a woman, from the working class and an oppressed nation. And the turbid azure of being three times a rebel.

4. Possible introducció a un epitalami (Possible Introduction to an Epithalamium) by Salvador Espriu

I posted this a while ago, find the text and translation in this post:

5. Plus Ultra ("Further" in Latin) by Jacint Verdaguer

Text and translation in this post:

6. Aquesta remor que se sent (This Murmur We Hear) by Miquel Martí i Pol.

Text and translation in this post:

7. Mester d'amor (Knowing How to Love) by Joan Salvat-Papasseit

Si en saps el pler no estalviïs el bes que el goig d'amar no comporta mesura. Deixa't besar, i tu besa després que és sempre als llavis que l'amor perdura. No besis, no, com l'esclau i el creient, mes com vianant a la font regalada. Deixa't besar -sacrifici fervent- com més roent més fidel la besada. ¿Què hauries fet si mories abans sense altre fruit que l'oreig en ta galta? Deixa't besar, i en el pit, a les mans, amant o amada -la copa ben alta. Quan besis, beu, curi el veire el temor: besa en el coll, la més bella contrada. Deixa't besar i si et quedava enyor besa de nou, que la vida és comptada.

Translation:

If you know its pleasure, don't skip the kiss for the joy of loving has no measure. Let yourself be kissed, and kiss after it for it's always on the lips that love lasts. Don't kiss, no, like the slave and the believer, but like the passer-by does with a delightful fountain. Let yourself be kissed -fervent sacrifice- the more burning, the more faithful is the kiss. ¿What would you have done if you died before without fruit other than the zephyr on your cheek? Let yourself be kissed, and on the chest, on the hands, male or female lover -the cup raised high. When you kiss, drink; may the glass cure the fear: kiss on the neck, the most beautiful place. Let yourself be kissed and if there's yearning left kiss again, for life is finite.

These are some I like. You can find more Catalan poems in this blog's tag #poesia.

[zoeycblogger]

Ở bất kỳ khoảnh khắc nào trong đời sống, ta hãy học cách hướng về bên trong để tự "đối thoại" với bản thân mình. Ta sẽ từ từ biết được rằng:

"Mình đã hiểu bản thân đến mức nào rồi ? Mình đã Được và Mất những gì? Mình đã biết nâng niu, yêu thương bản thân, gia đình và những người xung quanh như thế nào? Mình có sẵn sàng nâng cấp cho Tâm, Thân, Trí thay cho việc chạy theo "tiếng xì xào" từ bên ngoài?... Và quan trọng nhất, Mình đã tìm ra mục tiêu, niềm hạnh phúc cho cuộc sống bản thân hay chưa?..."

....

Vì khi đến một giai đoạn nhất định trong đời, đôi khi ta nhận thấy Thành Công trong sự nghiệp có thể sẽ là con đường dễ dàng hơn rất nhiều so với việc thành Nhân. Vì một chữ Nhân:

- Khi ta thêm dấu ngã thành chữ Nhẫn: Một người học cách biết Nhẫn Nại trước khó khăn, biết Nhẫn Nhịn để tránh sự xung đột không đáng có là điều rất đáng trân quý. Vì đó là kỹ năng bắt buộc bản thân trau dồi và tích lũy ở một thời gian rất dài.

Thế nhưng cùng một chữ Nhẫn mà nếu Tâm không kiên định, sáng suốt thì nó rất dễ biến thành Nhẫn Tâm mà bất chấp mọi thứ để đạt được mục đích, sự thỏa mãn cái dục vọng sâu xa hoặc giải tỏa cơn tức giận của bản thân mình.

- Và khi thêm dấu nặng là chữ Nhận:

* Một là, ta biết nhìn Nhận và thấu hiểu những điều tốt đẹp mà xung quanh đã và vẫn đang diễn ra. Không nên chỉ nhìn vào mặt tiêu cực mà trở nên bi quan và chán nản mà mất đi niềm tin vào cuộc sống.

Mọi thứ đều có hai mặt, ta hãy để Tâm thật bình thản và sáng suốt mà nhìn nhận mọi thứ diễn ra xung quanh mình. Đừng vội vàng phán xét và đánh giá những điều ta chưa biết.

* Hai là, việc Nhận và Cho đi. Biết Cho đi tình yêu thương và lòng bao dung đến với mọi người. Biết Nhận những món quà "đúng nghĩa" mà cuộc sống vẫn đang âm thầm trao tặng cho ta. Có như thế, lòng ta mới an nhiên và hạnh phúc sẽ mỉm cười.

......

Đôi khi lời nói ra thì rất dễ, làm rồi mới biết sẽ khó như thế nào. Trong cuộc sống đầy hoa lệ nó sẽ khiến ta dễ dàng lạc bước trước những quyết định khó khăn trong đời.

Vì thế, hãy dành cho ta một chút thời gian để thấu hiểu chính mình và bắt đầu thực hành từ điều nhỏ nhất. Để khi nhìn lại, dù bản thân không phải là phiên bản tốt nhất, nhưng nó cũng sẽ là một phiên bản mang những giá trị tốt hơn trước rất nhiều.

Hãy hướng Tâm mình về phía thành Nhân và phải vững tin vào chính bản thân mình. Thì trong tương lai, Thành công thực sự sẽ đến một cách trọn vẹn trên chính con đường mà ta hướng đến...

I actually love this cover more than the original Japanese, and as someone who first learned of this song watching 《殭屍道長》 (1995) as a kid, I cannot not hear this song now without thinking of 殭屍 (Chinese hopping vampires)! Heh!

Journey to the West: The Return of the Three Saints (2017) 西游记之三圣归来

Genre: Drama / Comedy / Romance / Fantasy

Country/Region of Production: Mainland China

Language: Mandarin Chinese

Date: 2017-01-06 (Mainland China)

Duration: 62 minutes

Type: Reimagining

Summary:

Tang Ming, just like the male protagonists in many diaosi stories, the girls he has met since he was a child were all goddess-level. After experiencing a lot of strange things, Tang Ming attributed the misfortunes in life to his own hair loss since he was a child. During a dream interpretation experience, he was involved in a chase by police and robbers. The heroine Bai Guqing was in charge of the arrest. In order to thoroughly investigate the target suspect lurking in the Niu Group, Tang Ming, who has been out of work for a long time, went to work in the Niushi Group. He ran into the goddess Bai Guqing at the bus station, but was tricked by a villain and left a bad impression on the goddess. At the corner of his life, the comedy encounter triggered a tragic past: Tang Ming is the reincarnation of Tang Sanzang and The White Bone Spirit is Bai Guqing's previous life. The relationship between the two became closer because of Tang Sanzang who fell into the mortal world, and the fate planted in the previous life quietly blossomed between the two. In order to fight against Mr. Niu's evil forces, Tang Ming and Tang Sanzang and his disciples began to plan a careful rescue work. In the end, is it true that evil cannot prevail against good?

For once, I had a nice dream. I had neighbors, a childfree couple, who had two dogs. The man has a male pitbull and the woman had a female Xolos - although in the dream, the breed was called Xolotl.

They had had puppies so I went to see them when the puppies where already older and active. They all looked like Xolos. There was one puppy called Lia, who immediately came to rest on top of my head. She loved me and I loved her.

(Xolos puppy)

I'm not a pet person (never had a pet, likely never will) but I really wanted to give a home to Lia. I even said in the dream to my sister, that I'm THIS CLOSE of getting Lia, even when her skin requires more attention and care.

When I woke up, I wanted to know more about Xolos (Xolotl in this case) because all I know is that it's an ancient breed from Mexico. Well, the breed name is Xolos, and the name I heard in the dream is an Aztec God Xolotl, who protects the sun in the darkness and also guides dead to afterlife. He's a dog-headed god, like Anubis, and chaotic, like Set, and Xolos dogs are one of his embodiment. Xolotl is also related to the dark side of the planet Venus (which can also be read freely as dark feminine, all that is considered as "taboo" to women by conservative views, especially when the Xolos puppy in my dream was a female).

Since Anubis is dear to me, I hope Lia is a protective messenger from Xolotl saying that don't worry; times are dark but I've got your hand. Follow me.

Long weird dream but gonna write down one part only. Note, once more heck old dream. Decades old! Saw this as an early teen first time so back then I had NO idea what or who the person and animal in the dream were / are. Internet didn't exist back then either so Google wasn't there to help me :'D

****

I went to Japan with sis and I was so excited to be there for the second time! :D our friend, who we stayed at, was with us on one shopping trip. While I was looking around, eyeing this cure knitted Halloween wool shirt, I heard my sis tell our friend how in her last trip she had tried to say something in Japanese to a tattooer, a man, he only had replied with unamused tone, in japanese: "So, you are Niu from Finland?"

I needed to leave outside for a moment, coming on front yard of the shop. This shop building was on top of the hill, right next to a highway. I started to walk the road down a bit, seeing a flash of blue hair behind birch tree a little bit lower. When Grimmjow's whole face emerged with the body, I lifted my hand all the way up, yelling: "Ohayo, Grimmjow! Nice to see you again!"

He wore his new clothing from Bleach, smiling at me widely without showing any teeth. He also looked more or less chibi styled (face / expressions).

"Ohayo, Nei-Chan!" he loudly replied while walking towards the highway, eyeing the cars. He said something else while walking but I couldn't hear him from the passing cars so I yelled after him:

"Su-sumimasen! I didn't hear you, what you said!"

I watched him jump flat on his stomach on one passing car's bonnet, facing the driver. However, he was looking at me all happy, yelling:

"I'll see you on Saturday!"

I watched him go before some guys came at me laughing, mocking me etc. I got furious, took my bag and started to swing it at them, chasing them. Some ran inside one block building, making me yell:

"What's wrong?! Hiding behind locked doors?! You that scared of a small woman?!"

They hid, not daring to come out. I returned back to the shop building where I left in the first place, almost jumping out of my skin when tiny blue Jay flew to me. It sat on the railing, wearing knitted pink-white shirt. I wondered this shirt out loud and the bird spoke back to me. I heard his voice in my head. It wore the shirt to stay warm, but it was also tired and hungry. I didn't get to say anything when it flew around me few times, landed on my hands to rest by laying on it's back and side. I told him I would take him inside with me to look for some food to him but I told him not to leave my shoulder since I didn't know how people wouod react on a flying bird in a store. He flew around me few times, settling on my left shoulder but he had some difficulties to stay on his feet because he was so weak. I go in but the dream then got so messed up etc. that I won't even bother with it :'D

Now, Grimmjow is ALWAYS a good sign but he saying he will meet me on Saturday?? Now I'm heck curious if something will happen on Saturday or will I've another dream of him during that day.

Blue Jay is a bird which we don't have in Finland so having one in a dream is heck rare! Naturally I googled what it means spiritually it's the following:

Communication, curiosity, confidence, chasing your dreams no matter what, being bold, speak up, your own intuition and spiritual energy, you are on the right path in your life, protection, good luck, peace, harmony, powers of creation, happiness, tenacity, persistence, be brave.

All these signs are heck good, not to mention blue Jay is, in fact, sharing same colors as Grimmjow :D Blue, white and black. Definitely a message here, haha!

Thank you, Grimmjow and little blue jay! ❤️
