Oscar

About a week ago, as documented in "Roman literature and the Cow Tools dancers," I dreamt that

I was trying to play some music on my phone. I think what I wanted was "Hit That" by the Offspring, but I tapped something wrong and got a Taylor Swift music video.

Last night, due to the influence of that dream, I played "Hit That" on YouTube -- successfully this time, with no Taylor Swift.


Around the 15-second mark, the video shows a close-up of a round galvanized steel trash can lid spinning:


For some reason, this little detail caught my attention, and I tried to remember the last time I had seen a trash can of that type. Not in a very long time. In fact, the only specific example of such a trash can that came to mind was the one that Oscar the Grouch lives in in Sesame Street.

Early this morning, I found that Debbie had left some new comments on my post "Werewolves and bats," mentioning the name Oscar no fewer than 18 times. This had nothing to do with the grouchy muppet but was the name of a man she had dreamt about back in 2018. After the main comment detailing the dream, she added one more brief comment:

William,
I forgot to add, Oscar had red hair.

Actually, it was already clear from what she had written that Oscar had red hair, but she felt the need to spell it out in a separate comment. "Red" hair in humans is actually orange, so this made me think of Oscar the Grouch again. Though he's been green ever since the second season of Sesame Street (1970), the first-season version of Oscar had orange fur:


I'm pretty sure this bit of trivia about Oscar has come up in comment exchanges with Debbie before, since she often brings up the "Oscar" ICS flag, which is red and yellow, and points out that red and yellow combined make orange.

In the afternoon, I checked The Babylon Bee and found that the featured article, front and center on the homepage, was this:


Later the same day, I had a new student come to my school wanting to sign up for classes. She uses the English name Amber (i.e., a shade of orange; also a name that has been in the sync stream before) and prior to transferring to my school she had studied at a school that uses Sesame Street branding. That school figured in a sync post, "Big Bird and the Blue Sun," back in 2023. Revisiting that post now, I find that it features a yellow dog (the Doge meme). In Debbie's dream, Oscar's parents had a Golden Retriever.

I wrote above that I thought the orange Oscar the Grouch had probably come up before in comment exchanges with Debbie. It turns out that it has -- in that Big Bird post I just revisited! Debbie wrote:

William,

Yellow and Red are also the colors of the International Maritime Signal Flag,
O ( for Oscar ) which means ; Man Overboard.

Oscar the Grouch (who was Green) was another Sesame Street character.

And I replied:

Debbie, Oscar has only been green since the second season. Originally he was orange.

The green muppet in the canoe with Big Bird and Cookie Monster never existed. There have been very few green muppets.

William,

Part 1 of 3

WOW!
This is getting soooo bizarre.
Telepathy is real, no?

Case in Point:

Oscar! Oscar! Oscar!
Copy and Paste ( link below )
"Distress Signal Peculiarities:
The Code is required to be specified****thrice***
in quick successions as—
-Code Oscar Code Oscar Code Oscar."
~~~~~~~~
America was also given the Distress Signal
O for Oscar, red and yellow warning at the
2023 Inauguration of Joe Biden.
See below the poet Amanda Gormon ( the nigredo)
wearing her vivid red and yellow outfit.

Another interesting Man Overboard colors
( with Blue stripes) are the outfits worn
by the Papa Swiss Guard ( see link)

Also note that I had my Oscar dream on
NOVEMBER 22, 2018
Nov. being the 11th month in Julian Calendar,
and 9th month in Georgian.

In the Maritime International Signal Flags right before
O for Oscar is N for November meaning No or Negative,
Abandonment and Re-sail (Sailing Regatta).

Your reference to Amber again was very interesting.
Recall my many comments
about the Amber/Ember/BR months: Sept-Ember, Octo-BR,
Nov-Ember, Dec-Ember.

Also note that in the Maritime Signal Flag right after O
is P for Papa. The Papa colors are Azure and White.
Azure is in the Cyan family.
Copy and paste:
"The blue Peter.
In harbour: All persons should report on board as the vessel
is about to proceed to sea.
At sea: It may be used by fishing vessels to mean:
"My nets have come fast upon an obstruction."

If you haven't already please read my recent comment
about Peter the Roman and the Prophecy
of the Popes. ( see link)

Note that the blue Peter's color, blue and white,
is the same color as Israel's Flag ( see links)


After I commented about Oscar on your blog yesterday
( May 2 )
a few hours later while I was on YouTube, a thumbnail
of a 2013 movie titled: Summoned
appeared on my YouTube feed.

The thumbnail was of Cuba Gooding( who I have enjoyed
a few of his movies) and two other White actors ,
Ashley Scott and Bailey Chase whom I didn't recognize.

My 'inbox' of things to read or watch on videos
is just so very overwhelming
and of course I can't read or watch everything,
so I just ignored the Summoned movie on my feed.

I clicked on other videos but the Summoned feed
persisted so I decided to click
it to see if the movie would hold my interest,
and Lo and Behold it did, and then some.

Here is a short summary of the movie:
Copy and paste:
"Five years ago, Laura Price and eleven other jurors found
the notorious serial killer Evan Lucas guilty of capital murder,
and he was sentenced to death.
But now, mysterious things are beginning to happen
to the jury members and tragedies
claim the lives of one after the other.

Laura realizes these deaths are not a coincidence
as she begins to investigate the murders
with the help of Detective Callendar
and Detective Fletcher.
Soon, she will uncover a dangerous truth- like each juror before her
Laura is also being SUMMONED.

Part 2

What really grabbed my attention is very early on in
the movie, the protagonist Laura, played by Ashley Scott
is painting a picture with bright red and yellow colors.
With her is her white Maltese mix(?) dog by
her side.
She calls his name which lo and behold
the dog's name is OSCAR!

I immediately said to myself : OMG, what's the odd of
this??, I just commented on William's blog
about Oscar, I said.

As I watched the movie there was so so so many
puzzle pieces that mirrored my own, it was just
unbelievable.

The Number 5, which I also commented recently
about on your blog, is everywhere in this movie.
Recall my comments several years ago
about my July 2014 Moon River Dream which
the setting in the dream was in Yellow Springs.

Recall I shared that in the dream there
was chaos because the Moon had disappeared.

I was on a bus and I saw fire and smoke everywhere
throughout the city. People were running in panic
and I approached several people asking them if
they were going NORTH as I felt that my
home was North.

I ran into a coffee shop to escape
the chaos and sat down and began
looking out a window.
The bus driver ( who was Black ) came over
to me and asked me about
another man, who was also Black.

The bus driver asked me if the other man
was bothering me which I answered no.
The bus driver then said: I just wondered because he
( the other man)
had a 50 which I felt was some type of firearm(gun).

The moon appeared in the sky again and all the people,
including me was so relieved. However it was short
lived because very slowly the moon began to descend
down until we all heard a huge splash , which
we all knew the moon had fallen into the water.

I shared my Moon River dream again with you because
not only is the number 5 connection very significant
in my life and also in this movie, but also because
in both my dream and this movie, there is a connection
to a large body of water.
This movie is set in San Francisco.

Part 3

If you recall I've shared a gazillion times
about my prediction about the 2 GOLDEN GATES.

I do not believe that the Golden Retriever in my Oscar dream
was a coincidence. I think the Golden Retriever
who was also wearing a blue kerchief around his/her
neck, was symbolic of 'retrieving very valuable ( like
Gold ) past knowledge for me. In the dream,
the Golden Retriever seemed to know me and I recall
thinking ( and i wrote this in my dream journal)
that I had been to Oscar's parents house before.
Also in my dream journal about the Oscar dream
I recall walking over to a table with a glass top
and under the table I saw a pair of black sandals
which I really own IRL. I actually bought
the black sandals in Yellow Springs many many years
ago.
The brand name of my sandals
is Josef Seibel which at the time I bought
my sandals they were still being made
in Hauenstien, Germany.
Looking back now at the Oscar dream especially
the fact that I had the dream in November
(and Nov in Ohio means I wasn't wearing the sandals
IRL at that time) I can now see the connection
as far as Germany, Switzerland and BERN.

The color Amber is also a golden-orange.
The Golden Gate Bridge 's color is : International Orange.

Also, and I don't want to go way off field on this topic
about Oscar, but if you recall I went into depth
about the color Amber/Ember and the Autumn
months and the weird connections
to the 2022 Netflix series called Outer Range
which is also a movie about Falling Down
i.e. 'man overboard'.
( see trailer below )

Note in the Outer Range trailer: the buffalo, the bear (BR)
the rust /amber colors, the bat, the
the cyan blue-green colors.

So, getting back to the Summoned movie,
another interesting part of the movie( and you can
see this in the trailer) was a Black woman who was a Prof
at a University who taught classes and wrote a book
about the Metaphysical. Lo and behold
the Black woman's name was Mylene WOLF.

The Summoned movie was about 'Judgement'
and Deborah in the Bible is a Judge.
Daleth is the number 4.
There is a scene in the movie where the protagonist
Laura is 'stuck' in an elevator on the 4th floor.

There was also a GEORGE in this movie, who played
a very significant role. Also at the end of the movie
and for some reason I knew it would be:
.... there was a mention of Jacob.


As I've shared many times (and I absolutely
believe ) that our soul transcends
linear time and space. If our soul wants us
to know something it will diligently try to get
our attention through dreams, telepathy,
synchronicity, esoteric experiences etc.
until we finally wake up
to the message our soul wants us to see.

Since this post about Oscar led me back to that old post about Big Bird, I was interested to discover that the two characters were played by the same puppeteer, Carroll Spinney. This led me to an article about Spinney, where I read this:

"Foreign versions of 'Sesame Street' have included Big Bird in their cast too. Sometimes without much change, like his counterpart Da Niao in the Chinese-language version. In other countries the bird has a different color, such as blue (Pino in the Netherlands, Garibaldo in Brazil) or orange (Minik Kuş in Turkey, Poupas in Portugal) or is a different bird species altogether, such Abelardo Montoya, the green parrot in the Mexican version of the show."

https://www.lambiek.net/artists/s/spinney_caroll.htm

That's a clear link to the Blue-Green Abelard. According to Spanish Wikipedia, the Abelardo puppet was designed by Oscar González Loyo. so there's another Oscar link as well.

Abelardo's surname, Montoya, is Basque. The Basque language recently came up in "Gross Gaur."

The day before Bruce's recent post involving Charles Williams' The Place of the Lion, I was alerted to a post on John Fitzgerald's Secret Fire Substack about the same. Regardless of possible link between the two posts, I took them as a push to read the book. One main character is writing a thesis about the philosopher Abelard.

Bruce has posted before about the stinking pterodactyl in The Place of the Lion.

https://notionclubpapers.blogspot.com/2013/11/tolkiens-stinking-nazgul-pterodactyl-in.html

Damaris Tighe, the character who is writing a thesis about Abelard, thinks of this pterodactyl that "in some way it was Abelard. It was Abelard."

WanderingGondola said...

Both of Bruce's book extracts have the stinking ptero attacking a woman. One of them is Éowyn, whom Bill wrote about a fair bit.

William,

And speaking of orange Oscars , look what Marshall
brought to my attention after looking at the Live Coverage today
of the Formula 1 Grand Prix in Miami which Oscar won.

William,

Lo and behold, I stumped upon another K-9 Oscar.
The video below was in my youtube feed today ( May 13).

Interestingly, note that this latest Oscar K9
is an Apricot (yellowish-cream pale orange'ish )
toy poodle as opposed to the two white Morkies/Maltese
which I commented about previously.

In this Oscar's story, someone threw him away
in an army **green color trash bin in a park,
in BC.
Oscar was rescued and now wears a blue color collar.
Oscar has 2 new canine buddies and interestingly
one of the buddies is a silver Labrador
( mixed with Weimaraner).

The reason I'm making this point about
the silver Lab is because if
you recall in my original comment, I connected
the 1997 movie with Michael Douglas titled The Game,
with not only the name of the protagonist,
Nicolas Van Orton
but ALSO in one of the scenes in the movie
a reference to the Hotel Nikko in San Fran which
there is a( IRL ) Hotel Nikko in San Fran
which 'coincidently' is on the 40th parallel north ,
and also has a 222 connection and an
11:11 connection as well.

What's the odds??

And last but not least this latest Oscar story
includes a silver Lab mix K9 whose name 'coincidently'
is Nikko.

This latest sync (and a gazillion others) are perfect examples
( at least to me) which has become my belief that
it's not necessary to look for synchronicity events
or clues each and everywhere.

IMHO,synchronicity events find Us because
our soul is trying to get our attention, and in order
to do that something out of the ordinary has
to 'coincidently' cross our path.( and many
times more than once) until we finally understand
the message.

I've come to believe that for me personally
a synchronicity experience seems to always
happen to me when I begin
to doubt myself and think that maybe something
is wrong with me for having all these
gazillion paranormal
unexplainable experiences, and maybe I'm
wrong about my perspectives regarding
the Why of the metaphysical
and maybe everybody else is right.

However I'm convinced that my soul is
trying to 'tell' me, that I'm not wrong
and I trust my soul
which has saved me more than once.

Because I've always been an animal lover
especially rescuing strays this Oscar story really
touched me. In my 2018 Oscar dream there
was also a K9 in the dream. A Golden Retriever.

Also check out
the meaning of the name Poodle and the
Poodle's origination which is Germany and France,
which yet again two more
'coincidental connections
to my puzzle pieces which are 1. Germany
Germany being the Berlin connection
and the Rudolph Steiner connection
which I've shared with you a gazillion times
about my many many dreams of Steiner
beginning in 2003 ( whom I didn't know
about Steiner before the dream ) and especially
my 2011dream which I titled:
Fama Fraternitatis---You Guys are from Germany !
Which I wasn't aware of the Fama before
the dream.

Also France which has connections
to several of my puzzle pieces regarding
the Fleur de lis (my 2008 Suzy dream)
and the Phrygian cap which Oscar wore
in my 2018 Oscar dream, and lo and behold
here we are again full circle.
