The Eternal Return: Living in a Universe That Breathes, Dreams, and Recreates Itself How to Stop Worrying and Live in the Moment Introduction In this living cosmology, every ending folds into a new beginning, a truth ancient philosophers named the eternal return. It is not mere repetition, but renewal: the universe breathing in and out across scales we can scarcely imagine. If the cosmos is a greater being, then our lives are moments in its vast story, rising, falling, and rising again in an endless rhythm of transformation. Heat death becomes but a seasonal stillness. The Big Bang, a breath drawn […]

Machine Magick: Induces Quasi-Schizophrenic Interface for the Evocation of Visions In brief, the performance of a magick machine can invoke a mental state I call controlled apophenic stimulation. Controlled stimulation of the schizophrenic, i.e. quasi-schizophrenic, state is facilitated through the performance of magickal machines, stimulating within practitioners the faculties required to communicate with otherworldly, alien entities. This is an intuitive examination of the parallels between ageless human experiences of other-worldliness that have existed through to the present day, induced through Magick. Introduction This exploration examines magick as a technology of consciousness, arguing that its practices function as “magickal machines” designed […]
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. The Condition of Souls: Lost souls here are “cursed by their lack of vision”. Trapped until they can comprehend Tiresias’s instructions this suggests a purgatorial state […]
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. My various, evolving selves enter and depart my consciousness, much like actors entering and exiting the stage of a dramatic presentation. A kaleidoscope of coming and going.” The Conscious Theatre. The Stage: This is your fundamental consciousness or awareness, the “feeling of me.” It is the empty, illuminated space. It is constant, silent, and unchanging, allowing any performance to happen upon it. This is what you truly are. The Actors¹: These […]
The Magickal Act as a “Synchronistic Potential” A magickal act, when viewed mechanically, is an action with a clear cause-and-effect outcome. In a magickal or synchronistic view, an action is a symbolically charged event that enters the fabric of reality at a moment of perfect alignment for the objective, Kairos¹. Since it’s planted in fertile ground, it doesn’t just yield one result. As it germinates, grows, and propagates, it sometimes produces unexpected outcomes. How it works: The Act Itself is a Concentrated Node of “Right Time” A traditional magickal performance is not performed at random. It is carefully timed to […]
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. She is the symbol of his wholeness, his kingdom, and his completed self. The unwavering goal that guides his entire path. The Odyssey itself is the “magical mythical path” of trials, purification, and transformation required to unite […]
The Path of the Chameleon, Hodos Camelionis, The Path of the Chameleon, Hodos Camelionis, is a poetic description of how an individual works with the QBL colour scales of the Tree of Life. This phrase is a badge, representing the mindset of an individual who has harnessed the colour scales of the QBL Tree of Life. Each of these paths represents a personality formula that allows interdimensional experience. The Colour Scales of the QBL Tree of Life In Hermetic Qabalah, the Tree of Life is not a static diagram; it is viewed through the Four Worlds of Existence (Atziluth, Briah, […]
