How wonderful, Boiglenoight! I always found ArcGIS confusing personally - I'm glad you're finding Gemini is able to alleviate the stresses.

When you state "I'm learning more about how the languages works... than I ever did through videos or books" - is this in regards to libraries, or how things are moving under the bonnet?

Earl Grey always packs a punch, essential for an early start indeed!

Association between tarot, astrology, and academic subjects

Forgot to reply last night my good Mothra, thank you for your help.
I much appreciate your advice to traverse these new lands.

Yet still, your occult knowledge continued the discussion!

Swords vs Pentacles - swords are associated with intellect and challenges of the mind and soul, but pentacles are associated with the material so I feel there's room for them both to be "the sciences". Maybe some sciences fall in the Swords bracket, and others fall in the Pentacles brace! Who knows!

Glad to have crossed paths, regardless

Confused we all are daannii, but through your confusion we have found ourselves in dialogue and that I am grateful for!

Congratulations on the Pretty hard Degree - what's your thesis on?

With regards to imagery, story, and symbolism - that's the discussion I am hoping to open! Your analysis of the cards, specifically their suits, is a great place to start, no? Pentacles: materialism. Do we see the sciences as materialist? Maybe some, but not all, who knows!

Wands - perhaps the arts? Or maybe only the visual arts - painting, photography, sculpture. Maybe dramatics lays somewhere else - I haven't a clue, maybe you do?

I will research more of course and thank you for your recommendations, however nothing beats a cup of tea and some natter with anons online

I share sympathies. Panda.

I suppose we all walk through life alone with these feelings. I take solace that in crossing paths, we can see that our journeys are similar.

Thank you for reading my blog, I appreciate it and I appreciate this thread!

Fair point Nemo - I suppose I wanted it to be revealed at the end, but I know that I would not like "Young Adult" to part of the speculation for I am, obviously, a crusty old vampire.

I appreciate your feedback and will have a ponder.

Pleasure to meet you Cowbee. I was unaware that a chimeric blend of pollinater and bovine existed - we live in a truly wonderful world.

Personally I am interesting in Computer Science, Philosophy, Languages, Literature, and Fashion - and of course, as the mighty Auster mentioned below I can find these communities individually.

I was hoping for more of a space for group study, perhaps on Lemmy, Mastodon, or Matrix. Qualities such as:\

  • Reading groups,\
  • Study groups,\
  • Sharing of literature / papers,\
  • Chat rooms to study in (matrix, I suppose)\
  • Language exchange

    The equivalent of these spaces on reddit, twitter, discord. If one has not yet fruitioned, perhaps we can fashion one into existence.

    Wonderful passing you, Cowbee

I like your thinking optissima, thank you greatly!

Thinking of creating a space for pair / group study on Mastodon / Lemmy / Matrix - equivalent to the spaces on Twiiter / Reddit / Discord that I'm just not gelling with as much anymore.

I will let you know if I create anything.
