On Prehistoric Cave Paintings

On Prehistoric Cave Paintings On prehistoric Cave Paintings. If one makes only a rudimentary study of prehistoric cave paintings, it is immediately apparent the majority of them we know of, such as those found on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia at Cueva de El Castillo in Spain and Chauvet-Pont-d’Arc Cave in France, are always created in the most inaccessible and dark locations. Although the majority of the pictures depict herds of animals, research shows there is little evidence to prove any of these images were produced for success in hunting, because in most instances the animals illustrated were not […]

The Vodoun Spirit

The Vodoun Spirit Vodoun Spirit, while on a visit to Haiti in the late 1980’s, I happened to be in a market selling locally carved wooden images of Vodoun deities and animals.  As is typical, all were painted in brilliant colors, except for one which really stood out. I purchased the unpainted carving which became the model for this painting. There is more to this story because a friend who was with me purchased two of the painted statues.  At the end of our trip, my friend returned to England and I came home to Minneapolis. About a year later I was in […]

Religion of Dream Dreaming

Abducted by Dreams or The Religion of Dream If we need a religion, then let it be from our own inner reality.  Let it be our Religion of Dream. The Religion of Dream is not a doctrine but a practice: to honour the subconscious as our primal temple. Here, symbols replace scriptures, and the act of creation becomes prayer. This is a faith without hierarchy, where every dreamer is both disciple and deity. Abducted by Dreams Oil on canvas, 24 inches by 20 inches, 2010 See Magick Original painting of Abducted by Dreams available at Saachi Art Roger Williamson visual […]

Tarot Tower Explained

Tarot Tower Explained The tarot Tower card signifies destruction, but it is important to recognize that this destruction comes from within rather than from outside forces. The Tower represents the moment in our journey when we gather the courage to transcend the false self-image we have constructed—the Tower itself. By breaking free from this illusion, we are able to unleash our true selves and perceive the Tower for what it truly is: a mere eidolon (an unsubstantial image or phantom). This card suggests liberation, awakening, and the courage required to shed old beliefs and embrace authenticity. Tarot of the Morning […]

The Nightside

Qlippoth An Alternative View Of The Nightside There is a common belief in certain circles that there are two QBL Trees of Life: the Light or Dayside Tree and the Dark or Qlippoth Nightside Tree.  The Light Tree, fig 1, and the Dark Tree, fig 2 (fig 1 inverted). When displayed together they are often arranged as in fig 3. There is an argument for this, but, we might also consider that when we understand all is perspective, we then realize there is only one Tree. When a body is alive, the four worlds of the QBL are engaged together like […]
