The 13th Floor

@13thFloor

I've been using this software for a long time, and thought the wider Fediverse might dig it. A tool for astrologers, Maitreya (formerly known as Maitreya's Dream) is a free, open source software released under the GNU license that charts both Western and Vedic Astrology, and has been in active development for over 15 years.

Features:

- Many astrological objects (Upagrahas, Kalavelas, Arabic points, Uranian planets, planetoids).
- A lot of configuration options reflecting different schools and giving a chance for research
- Classic Dasas in text and graphical views (tree and bar diagram)
- Ashtakavarga, Shadbala, classic Yogas and their predictions from classic scriptures
- Solar (annual) chart, transits and progressions
- Various optical features like skins and highlight of aspects for charts and Sarvatobhadra
- Uranian astrology: sensitive points (midpoints, reflection points, sums, differences) and their events, annual predictions.

I stare in the hidden depth of a face in the sand
I've seen the heaven and some fire in the hills
White eyes, wild heat, white light
Blood beats and the drums cry, screaming the night
They dance through the flames and they're falling so proud to die
Hand in hand they dance on the crimson ground glad to dance
Shadow dance, shadow dance (on the skyline)
Shadow dance, shadow dance (by the twilight)
High screams as the embers glow as the colors of the night
All around the colors change and the shadows dance
Dark heart, lust brim, end life
New hope to be kind spoiling to fight
They dance through the flames and they're falling so proud to die
Hand in hand they dance on the crimson ground so glad to dance
Shadow dance, shadow dance (on the skyline)
Shadow dance, shadow dance (by the twilight)
Enclosing their savage hands that hold me
It holds me, this dancing, it holds me, holds me (shadow dance)
I've seen the hay-hole guns and the mag is on the skyline
Like a penetrating rain purging sins from an open sob
Shattered light catch bright light for the high fence
Like a chilling rain dulls my pain my blinded eyes
Shadow dance
White heat, white light
Shadow dance.
White heat, white light
Shadow dance

Hey, brother, what you thinking?
Leave that old record spinning
You feel the rhythm, going
(They call it lonely digging)
Let's end your time to lay low
Your knees a-bending, so
It's time to get up and let go
(You're gonna come undone)

Hey, mama, how's it going?
Can't see your body moving
Don't leave the party dying
(They call it lonely digging)
Your booty shaking, you know
Your head has no right to say no
Tonight it's "ready, set, go"

Baby can you move it round the rhythm
So we can get with 'em,
To the ground and get us a rock and roll round
Just a downtown body body coming with a super-hottie
Let's go, yes, no, hell no
Baby can you move it round the rhythm
Cause you know we're living in the fast lane, speed up
It ain't no game, just turn up all the beams when I come up on the scene

Hey, brother, what you thinking?
That good ol' sound is ringing
They don't know what they're missing
(They call it lonely digging)
Let's end your time to lay low
Your knees a-bending, so
It's time to get up and let go

Hey, brother, nice and steady
Put down your drink, you ready
It's hard when things get messy
(They call it lonely digging)
Your booty shaking, you know
Your head has no right to say no
Tonight it's "ready, set, go"

Baby can you move it round the rhythm
So we can get with 'em
To the ground and get us a rock and roll round
Just a downtown body body coming with a super-hottie
Let's go, yes, no, hell no
Baby can you move it round the rhythm
Cause you know we're living in the fast lane, speed up
It ain't no game, just turn up all the beams when I come up on the scene

Baby can you move it round the rhythm
So we can get with 'em
To the ground and get us a rock and roll round
Just a downtown body body coming with a super-hottie
Let's go, yes, no, hell no
Baby can you move it round the rhythm
Cause you know we're living in the fast lane, speed up
It ain't no game, just turn up all the beams when I come up on the scene

So apparently 3 of my 96 cats decided to go prowling last night at the Caravan Palace strip club that just opened up next to the Guandong suite.

I now have 93 cats, and a cyborg by the name of Officer Murphy wants me to come down to the station for questioning.

A thank you to @useless_modern_god both for introducing me to a Love and Rockets track I hadn't heard before, and bringing to light a video delight, just right for a Friday night on the #13thFloor
