Song Roulette Part 2: This Time on YouTube
What is Mine and My Husband's Path Forward on Going to America?
When I am confronted with an uncertain path forward or a clearly difficult situation, I am a lot more likely to ask the Heavens for advice and guidance. I sometimes pray for dreams and look for signs in every day real world things. I also like to play song roulette, which for me involves asking a specific question about a pressing issue. Originally this involved asking a question out loud in between songs on the radio (like during advertisements) and checking what the next song was. For me it has often worked shockingly well, especially if I consider it in retrospect.
I don’t have a radio here in Phuket and have been struggling with very intermittent access to electricity in Thailand for several months. Even when I did have a radio here, the reception was quite poor on most local stations. Sometimes the reception was good, sometimes it was faded. Although this adds to the supernatural suspense, I came up with a way to play Song Roulette in 2018 on Google’s YouTube.
These attempts to divine the stars don’t come up every year. Sometimes years will go by without bothering to do it at all. This isn’t like a weekly fortune. I have to be at a crossroads where I truely feel in need of some type of cosmic guidance.
Song roulette came up several times in 2018, when I was having many problems in my relationship with my husband Oh. How I do it on YouTube is A: I come up with a song to play. I tend to prefer it to be somewhat recent as this keeps it from going down a genre or group based rabbit hole and B: I ask the question and C: I have a preset number in my head, skipping both advertisements and autoplay, of what the answer song on the right sidebar should be.
For example in 2018 I was going through a lot of difficulties in my relationship with my first husband Oh. Imagine Dragons had recently released a hit album which I was listening to a lot. So I choose this song I’d played a lot in March, entitled Whatever it Takes:
I made Oh’s number 8. So what was the eighth song after this, excluding autoplay, ads and (now) shorts? What was my path forward with Oh in around May of 2018? This one aged well. Note the 8 again:
So what did my YouTube Song roulette say about my path forward with my husband Ka here in October of 2023? I decided to start my question with a recent song which I like.
Ka’s number was 9. So what was the ninth song on youtube? What is mine and my husband’s path forward? Here it is…
You might not believe in it but I take it as generaally a good sign. Here’s to building on love…
My son was just asking me yesterday what divinition was...my daughter and husband brought up Trulani. Which is interesting because she is a well-intentioned fraud most of the time, but twice she is absolutely correct. I know this off topic from your beautiful and fun post...but it is interesting how we can sometimes either take ourselves and our methods too seriously or we can fail to take our true knowing seriously enough. If you come to America, where will you come?
Have you come across Lee Harris' music yet? I love this Album Metamorphs.
I love this. Thank you for sharing Amy. 🙏🌹
I'm not sure if this is interesting but I do something similar, play with the universe, especially when I've reached a rough point in my life, relationship. I play the radio, which I consider to be in line with spirits around me, change the channel if a song comes up that I don't want to resonate with. I reject it, expressing my boundaries, drawing to me what I want most, projecting it out while doing my best to behave like a person who would be in line with this desire, actively work towards it.
Lately when things dont go as I had hoped no matter what I do, I've been allowing songs in which reflect my displeasure with the universe. It doesnt help but it is a release, expressing my pain, a form of mourning and trying to take my power back.
Since I started this, I'm aware of any radio in the house I have turned on. A rule for me is to change the channel before the song finishes if I dont want to invite the energy/spirit of what the song represents; if it crosses a boundary of mine.
This whole process makes me feel like I have more control, more like The Secret than seeking.
