Cower in Place: Shame of the Ancestors.

Sometimes when I get bored, or need to talk to some who will understand, or just need to get out of the house, I go to an old cemetery about ten miles from here, out in the country where there’s nothing for miles but cows and fields and country people. When I say old, I mean by the standard of US cemeteries; the first graves are from the early 1800’s. I think the area was probably not much…

I have to admit that most of the reason I don’t write so much as I used to, along with having my abilities to expose and promote these writings through social media, mostly curtailed, is that I’ve basically given up on humanity. I’ve seen that the golden essence that I once thought could be “saved”, encouraged and freed from the Disease, that has largely been subsumed, consumed by the Disease…

Kicking the Dead Dog of Christianity (with Death Metal) (Part Two)

iv.

To continue on from Part One (from yesterday); my initial purpose here having been to point out how pointless (and ironic) it is today to attempt to generate shock and outrage by attacking Christianity, which is basically a phenomenon without force in the modern world, I see that I have been drawn down the recurring rabbit hole of my favorite digression: the evolution of the Disease itse…

Misunderstanding the runes (and the gods thereof)

Odin, if not Wotan – and I believe these are quite probably entirely different gods – is laughing at us, or at least those of us who have put years of study into the Runes. To explain, to me Odin is the embodiment, the archetype of the spirit of the successful spiritual seeker in the Nordic, Germanic, or possibly even Indo-European worlds, more successful than similar characters like Buddha, in…

Building a new vehicle (a dream of flying)

I almost let this website die, until yesterday. But within the last week, I had a dream, and I realized that if I let this website die, and didn’t do something in its place, I may as well die with it, and I’m certainly not ready to do that yet. So we continue, although I intend to make some more pretty drastic changes, and I thank all of you who urged me to continue for that; although mostly, I…

Mimir – A Preview (Beyond Asatru and Thursatru)

For those of you who may wonder if I’ve given up my studies into and meditations on the Nordic Mythos – I haven’t, but as I’ve made certain intuitive leaps and had certain perceptions, it’s gotten harder for me to face the necessity of catching up my writing to where I’ve gone, subjectively, with my work. There are lots of unfinished drafts, beginning about the time of my trip to Iceland about…

Sunn O))) – Ritual in the Caverns

ast night, 4/20/19, I saw the band Sunn O))) live for the second time. Seeing this band live is not about music, at least not in the mundane sense; it genuinely feels more like a religious experience. It is mesmerizing, transformative. Reflecting on the event last night and this morning, I have begun to understand why, while my taste in music vacillates wildly, this is a project I keep…

One Hundred Thirty A.H.

Today we should honor the birth of the greatest man of the Twentieth Century, Adolf Hitler.

This simple statement may surprise some of you.  After all, I’ve taken some pains in this last year to distinguish myself from the current crop of Neo-Nazis, Esoteric Hitlerists, White Nationalists and other groups who have taken his name in vain.   And let me re-state that I do not at this time advocate…

“Surveillance capitalism” and the true nature of facebook, google and amazon

Harvard Professor Emeritus Shoshana Zuboff’s recent book The Age of Surveillance Capitalism is one of the few books I’ve read recently which I consider to be important in our unprecedented modern times, just as important to me in the ways that I think it is wrong, as in its seemingly exhaustive (and somewhat repetitive) analysis of the Universalist Zeitgeist which makes our age unlike any other.…

Where is Cyberpunk Asia?

Two big themes here: Cyberpunk and Asia, and I can’t do either of them justice in this brief article. But since I intend to be talking a lot about both of them in the near future, it’s time for a brief intro and a few thoughts.

I’ve never written about cyberpunk, but it’s been a big influence on me, hit and miss over the years. I almost cringe to use the term, but to some people it…

As usual, the concept has best and first been expressed in fiction, perhaps best exemplified to the modern reader by Neil Stephenson’s American Gods, now an HBO series. The idea being simply that new gods can arise, although the entities in American Gods, exemplified by Technical Boy, Media, and Mr. World, are empowered and reduced by the beliefs and practices of humans – the fictional concepts…

Civilization and Its End (Perspective)

“The Moving Finger writes; and, having writ, Moves on: nor all thy Piety nor Wit Shall lure it back to cancel half a Line, Nor all thy Tears wash out a Word of it.”

― Omar Khayyám

I’ve spent a lot of time, energy and word, these fast few years, writing about the singular events that led me to a transformative breakthrough in perception.   But I reached, this last summer, a…

Ginnungagap – Beyond Linkola, Zerzan, and the Word

i.

I love finding gems.  Little things that people say that are so brilliant, that reading the rest of the author’s work, I have to wonder if they ever paused to realize the sheer brilliance of the little gems they left.  Laurie Anderson, slightly misquoting William S. Burroughs, said “Language is a virus.”   Burroughs had added that the virus was from outer space.  Knowing Burroughs, he may have…

Odin: Enlightenment of the Demiurge

This one is sort of a sequel, or maybe a resolution of a post I wrote last year called “A Different, Deeper Darkness – Odin and Thursatru”, so if you haven’t read or don’t remember that one, you might take a look at it and save me a bit of exposition.

When I wrote the previous article last August, I’d been studying everything I could find out about Thursatru, the 21st Century Nordic Gnosticism…
