Proust and his Time Capsule of Curiosities
So it was Proust's solar return on July 10th. Marcel Proust has long fascinated people through his work - a long novel 'In Search of Lost Time' . Why read it? Because it exists. It is crammed full of reflections, insights, humour, wisdom, acute social observations, and lots of duchesses with very little to do but chit-chat. This video weaves together many strands from his life, not just with his astrology but with his personal life, loves and hates, his synastry with various lovers, his reflections on time, fate, destiny and on his own death, his personal Daimon, and the films made from his book. So it's an audio-visual documentary of sorts- and I'm experimenting with this format as it goes way beyond what's possible in the print medium.
Proust's long elastic sentences fascinate me as they are the very antithesis and antidote of today's soundbites and tweets. No dumbing down. What we need is this luminous Cancerian light poured into words that oblige us to think deeply.
It's a labour of love and involved a lot of reading, thinking, collating and editing items, all good for this stay-at-home season of Cancer. Also, check the images and music for the holistic 'immersion' type of astrobiography experience which includes the music and the paintings that Proust loved.
Get a cup of tea and morsel of cake and listen at your leisure to ponder all things Proustian that rest in the moment but take you out of time.
