11 AMPRODIAS Atu 0
The Fool
-
The Irrational taken to the
extreme results in perfect freedom, with the ability to perceive pure
essence, and to extend consciousness into outré realities.
-
The Psychonaut willfully manipulates consciousness and psyche by
bioactive and other means, to see beyond the veil that separates the worlds.
-
By the image generating power of the backbrain the World
is dreamed into existence; thus we as artists create our own "preferred"
realities.
-
Through retroversion of the senses we achieve inspiration,
drunkenness of the senses, the ability to see the world aglow with colored lights.
-
Astrology: The stellar kalas of NU as they ray
into our life web, open human consciousness to communion with the galactic life wave.
-
Innocent trust in one's personal path, with humble openness to divine
inspiration is the key to self-validation, self-initiation, and inner strength.
-
Dark drum-rhythms dissolve boundaries of personal ego, expanding
awareness into union with the Daemon, and opening the power of oracular Voice.
-
There is power in the ability to take whatever one wants/ needs
without regret to sustain life, energy, and creativity, that one may do one's Work.
-
In becoming one with our instincts and passions we ourselves become The
Path, the central essence of our own creative acts, with power to create, to
bless, and heal.
-
The shamanic journey into Amenta undertaken for
personal and planetary healing and regeneration brings profound awareness of
mind-spirit-matter wholeness.
-
To take joy in the turning of the Wheel, in the inexorable pattern of
our DNA, in the holy continuity of human generations is of the essence.
-
Reeling on the razor's edge of non-control between oblivion and
bliss, we bring life back into balance by letting go, and allowing for creative chaos.
-
Power lies in ultimate surrender of the soul in mystic union with the
Void, merging with the Mother in the watery depths of the collective
unconscious.
-
24 NIANTIEL Atu XIII
Death
-
As Eros draws life from Thanatos, in merging with dark Plutonian
energies we find transformation, regeneration, energy, sexual power, exaltation, joy, bliss.
-
25 SAKSAKSALIM Atu XIV
Art
-
Becoming one with all sensation, individuality is annihilated;
consciousness breaks through to paranormal awareness; via union of opposites, the
Elixir is distilled.
-
In worship of Nature in all Her forms, joyful celebration, and animal
innocence, in the lustful dance of spirit clothed with form, lies the ability to
materialize desire.
-
Break the bonds of consensus reality; connect psyche and soma, dare
to channel heightened sexual/aggressive energies in service of the Will.
-
It demands passion and courage, fearing neither men nor gods, to
establish life outside traditional male-female roles, in defiance of cultural injustice.
-
In the Dreamtime, everything is possible: by gazing at
one's thumb illumined by the Moon, we come to see a fantastic reflection of our Shadow-self.
-
Following Wu-Wei, Kia, Neither-Neither, unobscured by ego-masks, the
self experiences ecstasy, and comes to self-knowledge as a Warrior on the
path with heart.
-
31 SHALICU Atu XX
The Aeon - The Last Judgment
-
Passing through fires of transformation, we shed pre-conscious
conditioning and all limiting definitions of the Self; dross thus burned away, Spirit
is set free.
-
From the Great One of the Night of Time came the Trees of
Darkness: language, ordering, time; thus the Stellar current earths, flowering
into thousand-petalled Sarasrara.
