Some video of me fire breathing on Halloween night.
As usual Miguel yaks for a good 10 minutes so feel free to skip past that. Bernie Taylor gives a tour of paleolithic consciousness and animism and brings it into the Orion myth. One part I really liked was when they spoke about the use of art in the caves to scry ( @rumpusgoat check this out, lines up with our discussion!) and to transform the initiates consciousness and rewiring their brain into seeing the world in a permanently different way. If you are interested in archetypes, animism, cave art, ancient history or similar themes you will probably enjoy Bernie’s talk. If you are into the Headless ritual and it’s connection to Orion, or the Fool’s journey (they both spring from the same source of course) near the end of the show he discusses the myth of Orion and how that translates into the human journey. So that will give you a deeper understanding on why the Headless is such a potent spell especially in regard to it connecting with the cosmic man and Hercules.
I happen to enjoy Miguel’s yakking…. But yeah, it’s a great show.
Let’s see if we can clear up some of this negativity with some humor. Seriously, play this with the volume on. You will laugh.
The first line is, “The Devil went down to Jamaica, he was lookin’ to sell some weed.”
After @aweandimagination ‘s excellent question I did some poking around to learn more about Shintoism. Found this video of what is called “Kagura” a ritual dance that pleases the gods. As someone with a background in ceremonial magick this is awe inspiring. This is the kind of precision and clarity that makes a Western ritualist drool with envy.
