Some more etymology! And.. ALMOST done with the movie. :)

This is going to be a quick status update cause I'm almost done with the movie I'm working on and I wanna finish it asap.
I hope to start rendering tonight even if it's not 100% cause I almost always have to end up rendering twice anyways due to me finding small mistakes when I watch the final version.

But.. We're getting close! I'm exciting, and I feel weight lifting from my shoulders already..
Has been such a complex and exhausting effort, it sorta felt like hiking the Grand Canyon.. In my mind at least! I'm tired.. ._.

So, also.. I touched on a lil more interesting wordplay/etymology the other night.

First was.. I wanted to know what the word "cast" mean.. In regards to "Casting a spell"..
And it appears as if it means "to throw".. So.. Casting a spell sorta means like throwing a spell at someone or something or whatever.

Cast is also related to the cast you get if you break a bone, or when you're fishing and you cast the reel.
I think, I'm guessing.. It is related to a "case" or "encasing"..
If you were casting a spell.. In a sense you would be encasing certain words and perhaps those words would have en encasing effect as well.

I found this cast word interesting cause.. We have words like "castaway" which basically now means.. "throw away" or "encased away" or "separated away"
Plus there's words like caste, castrated, and castle, which can all basically mean separated..
An encasing is also something separated, so we get some interesting numerous meanings that all seem to interchangably apply.
Casket for example is something encased, and it encases what is with in, and I guess you could say it's being thrown in the earth, and it's separated.
Whew.. It's weird how these words line up like that!

Moving on.

I found that the word MASON.. Possibly means either wall or MACHINE.. Whoa!
That's a pretty significant one.. So.. Are the Free Masons.. The Free Machines..?
Isn't that almost a contradictory thing? Can machines truly be free?

This reminds me of a conversation I had with my mother the other day where she was warning me of artificial intelligence and how it's trying to take over.
And she might be right, and I told her that in the future there will likely come a time when the pure humans have a conflict with the transhumans who want to evolve into machines.
Maybe there will be some type of Matrix or Terminator future in store for us.. Maybe machines will become free? I dunno! Lol.. Weird thoughts.
Also the wall meaning for mason could have something similar to do with like, "another brick in the wall" sorta thingy.

And finally.. I got into the etymology of the earth a bit and apparently it means soil..
There's definitely some interestign word play here if you consider..
Planting the SOLE of your foot in the SOIL = SOUL..
Also the etymology of Adam IIRC is = Blood and soil.
There becomes a neat metaphor where basically.. The symbolism of the "first" man, earth, and soul are all sort of synonomous.
Additionally we have like.. Metals and elements in our bodies from the earth.. So, perhaps we are kinda like golems made of the earth, haha.

Maybe those stories about us being made from mud and clay and the earth and stuff like that have some truth to them..
Hopefully though it wasn't just to create us as slaves to do the bidding of even more advanced beings. :\ That would suck.

And finally.. Apparently LAW means something like.. "lay down".. So if anyone ever says "laying down the law".. To me it sorta takes on a whole new meaning. Heh.

Anyways.. That's enough for now! It's already longer than I wanted it to be and I need to get back to working on the movie! Peace!

OH.. PS.. This was a thought I had and forgot about, but.. Cast has an implication to mean separate, or separated..
This is basically the same meaning for the words six and sex.. A separation, a division..
So.. THIS IS WEIRD.. But.. Could the word cast in a sense also kind of mean the same thing and sex and six?
Each time we are speaking words, or "casting spells".. Are we, separating such things? Or perhaps, dividing them? Creating some sort of union between the gendered energies that births a new creative energy..?
HA!.. Who knows.. I might be stretching on that one.. Though.. For all I know, maybe there's some truth to that..

We have the metaphor of sexual union almost everywhere.. It's in math, geometry, architecture, writing, drawing, painting, war, education, agriculture and there's probably numerous others I'm forgetting or missing!
So.. Why would it be surprising then if.. When we are casting spells, that we are also invoking this umm.. Gendered creative force?
Okay Ima shut up now, lol. Ttyl.
