Artstrology Article: Whale Ceremony
   
 

Whales know proper Ceremony.

"Roger Searle Payne (born January 29, 1935 in New York, New York, United States) is a biologist and environmentalist famous for the 1967 discovery (with Scott McVay) of Whale song among Humpback whales. Payne later became an important figure in the worldwide campaign to end commercial whaling."

"Payne studied at Harvard University and Cornell. He spent the early years of his career studying echolocation in bats (and how their food, moths, avoids them) and auditory localization in owls. Desiring to work with something more directly linked to conservation he later focused his research on whales where he together with researcher Scott McVay in 1967 were the first to discover the complex sonic arrangements performed by the male humpback whales during the breeding season." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roger_Payne

January 29, 1935 was the day of   10/ Toj....Vulture Decan....Week of Ajpu....Uinal of Reaction

10 is Manifestation.

Toj is the day of ceremony. The body parts of this day are Ears..Hearing.

Vulture decan is the first and strongest decan of Aquarius. This is an Air sign closely associated with water. Air is the element of communication.

Ajpu is the day of the "Lords of Time, Lords of the Sun". "Conception of a new being". Payne was the first to realize that the whales communicated in ceremony together in the water. He then manifested his findings by recording it so people of the world could hear it. Bing, bam, boom.

"Payne describes the whale songs as "exuberant, uninterrupted rivers of sound" with long repeated "themes", each song lasting up to 30 minutes and sung by an entire group of male humpbacks at once. The songs would be varied slightly between each breeding season, with a few new phrases added on and a few others dropped."

"Payne would also be the first to suggest Fin Whales and Blue Whales can communicate with sound across whole oceans."

"sung by an entire group of male humpback whales at once".....sounds a bit like ceremony eh ?

If one examines the method of ceremony and discovered that songs were repeated with slight changes...this would prove intelligent, artistic, ceremony on the part of the species. Repetition is non-artistic. Ceremony should be artistic, a free flowing creative process with a built in process to allow the children to add their own artistic expression. The whales know this. All animals know this.

"All around the world, blue whales aren’t singing like they used to, and scientists have no idea why."

"The largest animals on Earth are singing in ever-deeper voices every year. Among the suggested explanations are ocean noise pollution, changing population dynamics and new mating strategies. But none of them is entirely convincing."

Has anyone thought to acknowledge the possibility of intelligent , artistic ceremony ?

People are murmuring about the possibility of communicating with life on other planets and yet they still are ingnoring the visitors we have already.

If we cannot learn to acknowledge intelligence in our own world, what will happen when something really "different" comes along ?
