I miss you guys

This forum is no longer active. I miss the way we used to interact and post topics of interest to us. Now I think we are tired of the confrontations with those who call us woo or woo-woo.
Anyway, I miss you guys and wish there was some way for us to continue interacting.

I wish all of the regulars a happy spring. It seems to have finally arrived.

I don't agree, though, it's about being called woo woo. They can't come on our forum and do that, so if they are going to do so, they'd have to call us out on another forum.

I'd be interested in hearing the comments of others on why they think it's no longer active. Maybe we can come up with some ideas to make it more active.

I'm not saying we can't survive without his input, but we need some more people to post about astrology here. There is a great deal going on in that area, and I don't have the expertise to do anything but read, respond and ask questions about astrology. Maybe we can get some experts to post more regularly, or to provide links so we can discuss things written elsewhere.

I have no other ideas.

And so many other people left, not because of this group, but DU in general. Maybe it will pick back up.

But your post is not showing up in the update of MY GROUPS.

I know what topic I'd like to discuss, but it has more to do with cycles.

For the short term, we could post relevant blog entries from astrologers, if enough people were willing to seek out the material and post it.

I'm always having psychic experiences, but I'm reluctant to always be posting them, as it's a bit egotistic, I think.

I also read extensively and listen to C2C, a source for many good discussion topics, but it seems like what we have here are more readers than posters. When I post something, it would be nice to see comments, but that happens rarely. I think, with little feedback, posters don't know what to make of their efforts, so they just discontinue the practice. At least, that's how I feel.

I'm not into Facebook at all, so I doubt I'd go over there.

I had a dream that featured Fidel Castro prominently. I had the dream BEFORE Obama decided to soften our hard-line status against Cuba. It was amazing. It would have been appropriate to post it then, but not now.

When somethings strikes me as forcefully as that dream, I need to post it here, to share it, and to ask for help with interpretation if I need it. I know this is the one place no one will laugh at me.

appropriate content for a forum that's politically based. Did you write the dream down? It would still be interesting to hear.

I had a psychic dream the other night, but it was picking up on developments in someone else's life. The interesting thing is the developments in that person's life were highly relevant to me and taught me a good lesson.

I guess because many I knew disappeared from DU. I checked in frequently but hardly ever posted then realized that I hardly knew anyone's name anymore. Then I kind of even stopped checking in because nothing was happening anyhow. It would be nice to get it up and running again.

I was just looking for info on this Friday's great astronomical show and not a peep here on our board. I'm looking it up and will post.
