Greeley Square, the square that is a triangle, in midtown Manhattan, with all its symbolism, has a sister. Horace/Horus, even faces her. She is Herald Square at the intersection of Avenue of the Americas and Broadway, between 34th and 35th streets in Manhattan. Contained within her, facing Horace Greeley, is the goddess [...]

Father (Allah)’s Day
Posted in history, religious history, spirituality on June 16, 2007 | 1 Comment »
On this Father’s Day I’d like to point out one particular father, whose commemoration day (The Show and Prove) is four days past. He was born Clarence Smith in 1928 and later became Clarence 13X as part of the Nation of Islam in Harlem. As Father Allah, the founder of the the Five [...]
Meeting the Mirror Man
Posted in Consciousness & Alternate Perception, everyday life on June 11, 2007 | 2 Comments »
I wouldn’t say I remember meeting the Mirror Man. I just remember becoming aware of him. In a dusty-smelling, mansionesque hardware store that kept an ancient monkey in a cage in his own special spot, a hollowed out pillar at the intersection between paint, carpeting and, yes, mirrors: that’s where I became aware. I stood [...]

I spent 8 hours straight reading the entiretly of the Big Book of Conspiracies, my first acquaintance with Aleister Crowley’s Lam, protype for the bug-eyed “grays” that Whitley Streiber popularized in the mainstream consciousness during the 80’s. The connection between magick and the phenomena commonly linked to U.F.O.s and “extra-terrestrials” was certainly [...]

I used to watch Jack Van Impe with my dad late at night for sheer entertainment. A delightfully bizarre show: Jack’s asthmatic, skull-wearing-skins-and-a-blonde wig-of-a- wife, Rexella, reads some news headline from a respectable paper or magazine, speaking of increased violence here, famine there, etc. Jack then takes that news story and links it at impressive [...]

Grok this and grow silent:
Anti-Semites need Zionists.
Like Zionists need Anti-Semites.
And Black Nationalists need White Power Movements.
And White Power Movements Need Black Nationalists.
Like Israel needs Hamas.
And Hamas needs Israel.
And W. needs Terrorism.
Like Terrorists need the Terrorized.
And the Terrorized need the Bloody Wombs of War
and
So-called Government.
Not Knowing How to Nourish Themselves
From the Life-Love Within,
And The Life-Love [...]
Shout out to the Churchless

So I’ve been reading Birdsong, a translation by the poet Coleman Barks of fifty-three mystical-love poems of Rumi. I’ve been reading through it all day, and have read through it a few times in the last few days as well. One poem especially has been sticking to me. Since I’m doing my best [...]
Secret Gurdjieff Man: The British, Not Russian, Agent?
Posted in Personal Speculation, black magik, conspiracy poetics, history, magick, mysticcult, occult on June 1, 2007 | 5 Comments »
The mystic, philosopher and probable magickian G.I. Gurdjieff is quite a fascinating person. There are gaps in his known background, including questions about when exactly he was born. And for quite some time there have been intimations that the ostensible Armenian mage was at one time an agent of the czarist intelligence service, [...]
