DOGGY RINGS , kesako?

OOOOOOOOOOOOO

I had a few years ago (!) Spoken on this blog about my collection of rings and the symbolism of a major survey.

Henry Kaufman makes 2 in 1 because I asked to speak about what for me is the fact to a particular ring to a given finger. I am interested in the thoroughly fascinating subject, drawing from the literature that Henry has given me and the Internet. I jokingly told Henry that the day of filming the video I'll bring my "doggy rings" ... and I did not say so!

It was with surprise that I discovered that the word "ring" is a derivative of luggage (see bag = bag in English). Word that is also not to be confused with its homophone "banding" which consists mainly of putting rings on the legs of turkeys. Of particular interest to Henry, is knowing what lies behind the symbolism of the rings and how they can betray the spirit of a person's mood, concerns, or reports seduction that began with the others, more or less conscious
...
Everyone knows the meaning of the covenant, this circle without beginning or end, symbolizing the continuity of a relationship. Worn at all times on the ring left by the couple, it would refer to the vein that leads to heart by the ancient Greeks and Romans (vena amoris). The success of the Ring "Trinity" (3 rings) launched by Cartier and created by Jean Cocteau is because it is a form of materialization of the "holy trinity" recalling the ecclesiastical hello (index, middle, annular raised).

I found all kinds of interpretations by rings and their uses: for example, would rather thumb rings worn by gays. In the 19th century, wearing a ring given to the finger by a woman means that she supports the feminist movement. Feminists were often portray while openly wearing a ring on your thumb. Rings per inch would be a signal that carriers want to stand out from the crowd. What is certain is that originally in the gay community hard, it symbolizes wearing a cockring.

They would be brought to the index by the spirits "Cartesian" and "leaders" in major (medius), the "calm" and "emotionally vulnerable" and ring by "friendly". With regard to atrial several meanings are given. Masons wear their rings on this finger. The design of these rings are often inspired by "rings surprises" of the 17th century. These were equipped with a small house covered with a hinged lid to hide a magical object or another small object reflecting the membership of a secret society. The signet rings are worn on this finger coat-there by the English nobility.

At the end of the 18th century has added another new feature: the rings tell whose eyes stones form a kind of acronym. Played in a certain order, the first letters of the stones form a word: The apis lazuli, O blade V ermeil (another name for garnet) and E emerald suggest the word "LOVE". I did not know this system but it gives me another excuse to buy a new ring! It remains for me to find one with itrine C, H ématite, R UBIS, I olite, and a stone or a metal that starts with X to Chrix but I ' did not ;-) found

In prosaic, pleases me when a ring at the time of purchase there is not always all sizes, so I put it where I can at least go where my preference is to say either ring or middle finger. I rarely put rings on the index or little finger and thumb they never bother me (probably because in the case of the little finger and thumb, two fingers each being at the end of the hand, the cover is a bit close and I need to feel my hands free to one side or the other). So it's more a question comfort that service ... I seldom put two rings on one hand (feeling of space) and if I do, never on two fingers that are side by side. For stone, the color of my clothes and my makeup. So these are purely aesthetic considerations that determine my choice!

I Have A Rash Between My Breasts

Locus Solus
(2)

I had planned to visit Brighton the day after our expedition Owling Manor, but I could not stay on my hunger. The image the old piano in the middle of the farm empty haunted me. I told Andrée how it would be great to film singing and photographed Barbara Hendrix at this location shifted, and she agreed with me: he had to go back! Lifted at 6 am, arrived at around 9, we had all day to have fun in the English countryside.

Under a bright sun that we arrived at Owling Manor. The exploration began with the garden, where nature has planted a field of many weeds and plants of all kinds.

This short course struck me by almost regularity of 8 shrubs growing around. They give a semblance of order in this jumble of greenery.

The red brick façade of the house is decorated with carved shamrocks.

view of the roof.

The first sight that was entering the house is the staircase where there is still a red carpet and skylights oval.

The remains of a past life are scattered in pieces at the option of passing visitors who, like us, are having a field day, moving objects according to their desires. Here, the tag "LIAR" is the only one in the house. It is even more strange to find it here because its double-meaning is oddly relevant. English "liar" means both "a liar" and "lying", and refers in turn to lie about the staging and the sleeper fantasy that has left her pumps at the foot of the bed ...

In the room next door, disorder Ambient is reflected in the mirror of a large wardrobe.

The kitchen has nothing to envy to the rest of the crowded parts of many objects of a bygone day, and whose disturbing presence seems to involve ourselves in a nearby, almost disturbing intimacy as it is dusty and chipped.

According to my research that the mansion belonged to a Franco-Hispanic English. The owner, the son of a English duchess, was born in 1913 in France. He married an Englishwoman in 1957 in London.

Potier, he was also a painter. His wife cultivated species of orchids at the manor. As for the house, it dates from 1904.

For reasons unknown, she was abandoned by its occupants and all its contents (pictures, dishes, furniture, clothing, etc ...). As if a drama or a sudden fad had forced the couple to leave without even packing his bags ...

The house and grounds are currently on sale for $ 3 million books and according to unconfirmed sources, the owner would still be alive would have 104 years! The couple had no children, returns to the mansion a niece although negligent.

Among all objects, books, pamphlets lying around, I found a French edition of 1932 of Impressions of Africa by Raymond Roussel (1877-1933). I think she was waiting. Of his time was a writer Raymond Roussel maligned and misunderstood. Oulipians and admired by the Surrealists, he was particularly fond of handling the "language of birds ", ie homophony. Anecdotally, there is a double-meaning in its title: "Impressions of money to," were published at the author. In preparation to deliver mine, I took them with me as a souvenir.

Greeting ...

We still had to Andree and me one last thing to do before leaving. Return to the abandoned farm.

Here the old piano as we had found the previous day to 20 hours. At a time when we went back the next day around 15 o'clock he was immersed in the dark. It took us half an hour to move a few meters and thus gain in brightness. The poor piano was so shattered that we were afraid that it turns into a pile of dust.

But we were motivated enough to mark the final score of this adventure, knowing that we do not soon come back to this place. In her velvet dress, Andree, singing is his finest classical arias, has given a kind of second life to old instrument whose voice had been silent for long. In the English countryside silent, the "Urbex Singer" had done a button!

Kiwi Cleaners Annoying

OWLING
MANOR (1)

London, August 30, 2010. My friend Andrea and I are going on that day to discover a strange abandoned Victorian mansion. We do not doubt will happen again What a veritable obstacle course. The trouble began when, after taking our tickets, we are wrong platform. The train leaves in 3 minutes, it is about noon. I start to run, convinced that Andree follows me. This is where I lose it. The problem is that she told me be left without her cell phone ... so after several minutes of searching I finally ask for an announcement to be made throughout the station to find myself at Andree reception point ... except that during that time she took the train to the city where we must go to make the change, that I finally know by checking my text messages, because ultimately, she has her laptop! We end up back on the station platform. An hour of lost. Also in the rush, I asked an employee of the line where the next train to Dovecourt, our destination. He told me platform 3 in 3 minutes. So here we are on the train. It begins to take the lead about the incident for at least half an hour, then time passes, pass, pass ... the controller comes and tells us we are not in the right train! Stupor, stress, nervousness, it is 14:30, but the controller is nice, we do not pay a fine (it was the equivalent of twice the planned route) and we let us not be discouraged ... it redid the road reverse and start again. With all these setbacks, we can Dovecourt to 17 hours!

According to the plan we have, the mansion is a good half-hour walk, so do not dawdle ... but I printed plan indicates a road that does not stop at the location indicated, the guy's hometown inn says it is the first left then this is the second ... We are the edge of a wood, and it is 18 hours.

You meet a guy on the road that says "yes, Owling Manor is one mile away, a very mysterious house, he must pass over a barrier , cross a field to get there ... "we did all that but there is still no! Meanwhile, we ran into the brambles, nettles, I stressed to see the light fall, Andree Zen that the Dalai Lama ... she is also an exemplary patience and I was awarded a medal to follow me into this mess with the rush that I ... imposes

Then, a resident of the area tells us that it is the door of his house after ... we climbed over a fence in the mud and nettles, and explores a farm ... I think that this is surely the outbuildings of the manor ...

But aside from this old piano musty, nothing like up close or from afar at a mansion here ... this is not the wasteland! We just lost another hour.

So we turned around, it will retry the opposite door, asking for more residents of the house next door who say "you can not miss if you follow the path lined with trees, "but we can not find the path and stressed out, tired, bleeding, itch with nettles English that are decidedly more warlike than here, at the final moment of giving up, the way is there under my eyes ...

Manor Owling When we arrive, it is 20 hours. Despite the light dims, we still have a fast lap, just to take some pictures. The house is much more devastated than I've ever seen on the net. But it is still surprising, given its quirky architecture.

The lounge chairs and its twin, the ground floor.

The skylight in the middle of the house.

It is clear that kids the corner came to have parties in view of the corpses of bottles that we found some fun to be staged as to accentuate the singular and the murky atmosphere of the house. A painting with a portrait of a woman torn, a broom and a black dress stricted the ingredients for a bad horror movie series B.

One of the inhabitants of the manor was probably the painter who has represented this brunette with a strange look on several paintings and sketches found in the house. This piece was to be his studio.

On the roof, many doves have made their home and helped to destroy the rotten floor 3rd floor. The clock is ticking and we need to go ... Andree and I did not imagine one second remaining to sleep tonight in this gloomy house and we decide to break camp. It was at that time said Andree inspired to sing a capella an aria in this peaceful, sorry ...

I film the scene, as in a dream ... the voice of Andree rises and that's when the hooting of owls meet him in the heart ... it is almost dark, you see nothing but we still have the sound of this strange interlude of a song "at nightfall" in front of a mansion maybe haunted! I was almost afraid Andree awakens the spirits with his powerful vocals and sharp, but when night came, it is in the healing that we made our way back. Who said that music soothes the soul? You should know that Andree was fasting and had eaten or drunk for the day ... this woman is almost superhuman fifties!

*

I was certainly frustrated at not being able to explore more Retail Owling Manor, but ultimately very happy with my day with Andree, the opportunity to become a "Urbex SINGER *" more honorable! I just had that rare photographs of poor quality but the memories were there to overcome my disappointment. Unless ... unless fate decides otherwise ...
