In the Lair of Tiresias “In the Lair of Tiresias”, an original oil on plywood painting, 48 x 48 inches, 2024. The painting is an allegory of the soul’s journey after death, set within a personalised mythological framework: The Realm: The setting is the underworld, referred to as “the realm of Tiresias.” In this mythology, Tiresias is not just a blind prophet but appears to be the sovereign or central figure of this domain.

Theatre of Self

The Theatre of the Self The Question Theatre of the Self. “I am the feeling of what is called me. I am not me, but an impression of me.

Magickal Act

The Magickal Act as a “Synchronistic Potential” A magickal act from a mechanistic view is an action that has a direct, linear cause-and-effect outcome. In a magickal or synchronistic view, an action is a symbolically charged event that is planted into the fabric of reality at a moment of perfect alignment for the objective, Kairos¹. Because it’s planted in fertile ground, it doesn’t just produce one result; as it germinates, grows, and propagates, it sometimes does so in unexpected ways.

The Odyssey of the Daemon

The Odyssey of the Daemon: Magick, Mind, and the Quest for Wholeness I. The Core Thesis: The Odyssey as Daemonic Quest Homer’s The Odyssey is far more than an epic poem; it is a universal allegory for the search for our Daemon, our essential spirit, true Self, or guiding genius.  In this journey: Penelope, Odysseus’s wife, represents the externalised image of his daemon.
