I can’t imagine a legit celebrity musician coming up with a better music video. Nothing staged is going to beat a “nothing can phase me” dance video during a real live coup.
I am laughing at myself because I find myself irrationally frustrated by the asymmetry of her dance. All of her step movements are in one direction, and then back to center.
Why are we like this? What a stupid thing to get irritated about. And yes, you too, reader, have pet peeves. Maybe different ones, but it’s still silly to get irritated by them.
People love symmetrical patterns and proper ratios our brains seem to be fine tuned to noticing and examining them for information and correlation. Theres a billion theories as to why, nobody really knows. Me I personally think that the universe in totality is somewhat conscious and has a deep appreciation for the fundimental abstract truths baked into the concepts of symmetry and higher levels of complexity forming beautiful tapestries of order. As we are higher complexity beings spawned from the universe we inherit this appreciation that lead to the creation of life and our awareness in the first place.
I have no idea, but maybe I can help your mind find rest.
I am imagining her in a in-person class, standing in front of 20 participants. Now, if she were to do the steps in both directions, she would need double the padding around the margins in terms of space. So about 2 metres free space to the left and the right.
Doing the steps only on one direction, would let her use her studio space more efficiently.
Laughing at your illogical thinking is a good sign though!
Just imagining showing the video to someone and them going, “But…her movements aren’t symmetrical!!” as a missile launcher rolls in behind her is pretty funny, and very on brand for the energy of the OP.
For context, a woman went viral during the Myanmar Coup in 2021 for dancing/doing a “follow along” exercise routine as police and military vehicles rolled in behind her. People from Myanmar added that she was dancing to a protest song. She is wearing a mask because this was during the Covid pandemic.

Symmetry is a contravention to chaos, so you may have something there - independent of the spiritual aspect, which you are of course free to believe.

Ah, that feels better, thanks.

That’s the greatest banner in the history of coups!
