Think of this one as a Crazy Wall of my own knot of synchronicities—associative, allusive, weaving a serpent journey, as the raven flies. I’m not pushing equivalencies here: one is not the other is not that one. Think of this as me noticing different lines and synchronicities that’ve been in my wake for a long while. It’s okay: this isn’t a coherent shape. Feather I went inside to try and pull it…

A couple of years back, I had been working with various entities, and I called up one, and She gave me a sigil, symbol, pictograph. At the time, I began reflecting on that symbol in my mind, and I had an experience in which—bam—I started seeing a coiling mass of serpents (I always say wyrms, but) with a woman standing in front of that mass. She (a different She) was whispering to me insistently…

What are the gods? Here’s the thing: I think we have several answers, and several of them mingle. Of course, any such answer is speculative and subjective. However, if Talker mediates our experience of the world and Otherworlds, then Talker’s conception(s) of the gods matters. Sometimes the gods, Fetch, or God-Self may hammer some message, some purpose, some experience through that forces Talker…

Going off the Map

I don’t like the hermetic Tree of Life. Well, I don’t like it for me. I see why people use it. But I don’t like it. And I like titanic World Trees. And you encounter the qabalistic, hermetic, and/or Golden Dawn-derived Tree of Life in hermetica, Thelema, Wicca, and elsewhere. And over the last few months, I’ve noted how several experiences I’ve had reflect parts or aspects of the Tree. Those…

Mediating Gods & Otherworlds

It’s a mild, autumn, cloudy morning. The clouds are low even as the sun tries to come out. [WtaW] deG, towards the end, writes something that helps cut past certain—things. Y told me how the sun is the burning core of elthil that provides most of the elthil for this star system, and this note seemed to have an occult sense to it. The sun is the source of most of the energy on earth—sunlight to…

I had second hand smoke in my shirt and sinuses last night, and I find myself trying to sneeze it out. It’s been a windy weekend, leading to a cold week next week. Last night, as we left [a small po’dunk town], I had the chance to look at the constellations above for a few moments. It was glorious, even over to the Pleiades. I felt tired last night, so I most[ly] tried to sleep. I feel the…

The skies are where I want to rise to, to climb Elethis into the skies. But the land also calls to me,—I want to explore them both, touch and hug the tress, soar through the clouds, walk the land to the sea—and I would even touch the waters, drink and swim. Hmm. I still feel fear and trepidation about the waters. If the blue sky elthil comes from above/Sky, and the Green from the Land, then what…

I didn’t do much last mostly because I was up too late, and I woke up late today before heading out to lunch. I did walk, and I took my invocations of my parts—AL, KL, etc.—to a slightly different direction today, noting what I gained, wanted from all, each of them. The clouds and the blue sky were great this afternoon as I could see Elethis gloriously. It’s a humid, mild, not quite warm day…
