Eternal Return


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


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 “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 […]

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. 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 […]

Magickal Act


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 […]

Rapture In General Terms


Rapture In General Terms, In general terms Rapture is a state of intense joy or delight, of being completely captivated and overwhelmed, by religious and or sexual emotion. The powerful link between sexual and religious rapture is the human desire to transcend the self. Both experiences offer a temporary escape from the limitations of individual existence—the isolation of being a single self in a vast world. Whether through the intimate connection with another person or the overwhelming connection with the divine, the result is a similar psychological state: Ecstasy (from Greek ekstasis, meaning “to stand outside oneself”). Bliss and overwhelming joy. Loss of […]
