A DENTIST IS HARD AT WORK
Commentary: ‘A Dentist is Hard at Work’. His work involves
finding out what’s wrong in a situation and fixing it up so that
things can work smoothly and efficiently once again. Our
“chewing ability” is important as our teeth make it possible to
break down nourishment to its smaller elements or to a more
digestible consistency so that we can integrate these into our
wellbeing. He concentrates on fixing damage that has probably
occurred over a long period of time. The “patients” that the
‘Dentist Works’ on may be nervous and restless, and looking
forward to the whole thing being finished. Although he has a
very important or valuable job to do, many in society don’t fully
appreciate his ‘Work’.
Oracle: It is important to have healthy teeth as well as bodies and
minds. All these factors go into making up our wellbeing and they
need checks, balances and maintenance work done on a regular
basis to ensure smooth functioning. It is also important for us
to take responsibility for their efficient functioning to continue.
We need to make sure that we supply our bodies and minds
with good nourishment and hygiene, not just indulge in band-aid
treatments and cover-ups. ‘Dentists’, doctors and other physicians
are needed in society in order to fix up the problems that occur
in our lives. Society needs to invent a way of repairing the
somehow inevitable but probably largely unnecessary damage.
On another level, however, there are people who feel it is their
duty to continually point out where they think things need to be
“fixed”, and this can be painful in itself to endure. These people
sometimes need to know when to back off; we should be able to
assess and fix up our own mistakes. Whatever the situation, you
may need help at this time to cope with some of the difficulties
that might arise in this period e.g. finance, health, stress etc.
Keywords: Repairing damage. Drilling at something. Plugging
up situations. Being the responsible one who always has to fix
things. Not being able to relax. Causing pain to erase pain.
Tooth decay and bad breath. Medical equipment. Therapists.
Treatments. Social comment to invoke a cure. Flossing and oral
care. Attention to detail.
The Caution: Getting further into a hole by using more and more
social solutions. Causing more pollution and damage when one
should be honoring and fixing things. The fear of pain. Making
wrong judgments and causing harm. Big dentist bills because of
neglect. Always having to come up with solutions to problems.
Always being “on duty”. Nagging away at things

9 SCORPIO

Investiture of movement or flow;the fixed notself becomes a funnel for the self to change. Life motion becomes a process of stimulative experiment with surrounding determinations and the self takes concretion as an organic vesture, the possibility or relatively plastic material corridor of its hitherto free impetuous alteration. Triumphal arches and grand processions. Motion in grooves and channels. Phonographs.

(or helicopters!)


Investiture of movement or flow: This could refer to the process of life itself, which is characterized by constant change and movement. It suggests that life is not static but is always in a state of flux.

The fixed notself becomes a funnel for the self to change: This could mean that our perception of the external world (the “notself”) influences and shapes our internal self. The “funnel” metaphor might suggest that this influence is not just passive but actively channels our development and transformation.
=========================================================================
Life motion becomes a process of stimulative experiment with surrounding determinations: This could imply that life is a journey of exploration and experimentation, influenced by the circumstances and conditions around us.

The self takes concretion as an organic vesture: This might mean that our identity or “self” is not an abstract concept but takes a concrete form, much like an “organic vesture” or living garment. This could suggest that our identity is deeply intertwined with our physical existence and experiences.

The selected text appears to discuss the concept of life as a process of experimentation with surrounding influences. It suggests that the self takes form as an organic entity, capable of change and adaptation. The text also mentions triumphal arches and grand processions, possibly symbolizing significant life events or milestones. Lastly, it refers to motion in grooves and channels, and phonographs, which could be metaphors for routine and recorded history respectively.
