The Elemental of 171 West Buchanan Street

It’s been hard for the landlord to keep tenants at 171. Sure, the building was drafty, and in the worst condition of any building on the street. But the neighbors said that tenants just didn’t stay on my side of the building for more than a few months, and those who had were unsavory. Other than a tenant who had stayed for 12 years–until he passed away last October–I spent most of the time completely alone in the two-family house that was subdivided into four apartments.

In the evenings, I often felt that someone was watching me. With that feeling, I would look out the windows at my backyard. But soon that stopped. Because I “saw” something, more in my mind’s eye than anything, but unlike many visions, turning my mind from it would not make it go away. It had an old man’s head and body, white and crinkly, with an exceptionally long nose and face, no hair on the top of his head, and long white hair in the back. He would traipse about, back and forth on white, goat-like legs in my backyard, at an inhuman speed, almost like a speeded up film.

After a moment of “watching” this, he would turn his attention toward me, and it felt like his face, crinkly, white, with cancerous-looking growths all over it, was inches from mine, and his eyes, which I could now see, were milky-white of a blind man and peering into my soul.

I tacked a picture of the Eye of Horus to my back door, and purified my home and my yard with salt. I avoided looking out the back windows at night, but I knew those were only temporary fixes. Before I moved out, I did “see” him again. And I was glad to be gone.

How to Invoke a Tarot Angel

Although I personally do not use the Tarot, finding them to be too esoteric and not so ecto-teric, I found the following article at
http://www.llewellynjournal.com/article/1257 intriguing. The idea that we could bring into our “normal” lives and “magical” lives an angelic helper was a Hopeful thought in a world in which we can use all the help and all the good thoughts we can get…

Good Question

The other night on Art Bell’s Coast To Coast AM radio program, some guy called in and posed the question, “Why do ghosts wear clothes?” I’m stumped, except maybe to say that people who “see” ghosts aren’t seeing anything at all and are projecting our customs and morals on something they think they see. Anybody else have a theory?

Mandalation Museums for All.

The “Bodies” exhibition of Chinese cadavers skinned and set in plastic passed through New York City without notice. (Personally, I don’t go to any cadaverous art shows, be they human or animal–it’s been a fad in the past ten years or so.) But the directors of the Seattle Museum of the Mysteries–a museum of bigfoot, UFo’s, and pretty much all things Mandalation–have filed a complaint, asking the exhibition be halted, saying that the families of these dead people never gave permission for these bodies to be shown this way. I suspect that others feel the way I do, simply eeeeeeew–and no one is showing up.

I have to say dead bodies are not weird or interesting or dare I say lively for our sort of folk anyway. If it’s a rainy Saturday on the West Coast, I suggest you hit the Bigfoot Discovery Project. The curator has been pondering the existence of the big guy for 50 years now, and has collected casts of very large foot prints, and possibly Bigexecrement.

Personally, I am more interested in the blue alien shit they may have found at the International UFO Museum & Research Center in Roswell. Only kidding. But the museum does have a nice collection of original media on the incident. A definite must-see.

Closer to home (for me) is the John Zaffis Paranormal Museum in Stratford, CT. John Zaffis has been a ghost-hunter for 30 years, and collected any number of haunted items along the way.

Religious Origins of Friday the 13th

“It turns out that “TGIF” hasn’t been a slogan for all times and places. Public executioners once favored Fridays. Most notably, Friday marks the day of the crucifixion. Thirteen is trickier. The Bible assigns it no special significance, and Augustine even appears to have regarded it is as a good number–he once made a point of saying a prayer 13 times, possibly because 13 people attended the Last Supper.” Wall Street Journal article is here.

Today’s Mohammedan Outrage Brought to You by Apple

As reported at The Register: According to a report on The Middle East Media Research Institute, Apple’s NY Fifth Avenue store has been slammed by “an Islamic website” as a “new insult to Islam”. The reason? Well, it resembles the Muslims’ sacred Ka’ba, situated in the Masjid al-Haram mosque in Mecca.

Original post in Text

A cosmic trigger event is occurring on the 17th of October 2006.

This is the beginning, one of many trigger events to come between now and 2013. An ultraviolet (UV) pulse beam radiating from higher dimensions in universe-2 will cross paths with the Earth on this day. Earth will remain approximately within this UV beam for 17 hours of your time.

This beam resonates with the heart chakra, it is radiant flourescent in nature, blue/magenta in colour. Although it resonates in this frequency band, it is above the colour frequency spectrum of your universe-1 which you, Earth articulate in. However due to the nature of your soul and soul groups operating from Universe-2 frequency bands it will have an effect.

The effect is every thought and emotion will be amplified intensely one million-fold. Yes, we will repeat, all will be amplified one millions time and more.

Every thought, every emotion, every intent, every will, no matter if it is good, bad, ill, positive, negative, will be amplified one million times in strength.

What does this mean ?

Since all matter manifest is due to your thoughts, i.e. what you focus on, this beam will accelerate these thoughts and solidify them at an accelerated rate making them manifest a million times faster than they normally would.

For those that do not comprehend. Your thoughts, what you focus on create your reality. This UV beam thus can be a dangerous tool. For if you are focused on thoughts which are negative to your liking they will manifest into your reality almost instantly. Then again this UV beam can be a gift if you choose it to be.

Mission-1017 requires approximately one million people to focus on positive, benign, good willed thoughts for themselves and the Earth and Humanity on this day. Your thoughts can be of any nature of your choosing, but remember whatever you focus on will be made manifest in a relatively faster than anticipated time frame. To some the occurrences may almost be bordering on the miracle.

All we ask is positive thoughts of love, prosperity, healing, wealth, kindness, gratitude be focused on.

This UV beam comes into full affect for 17 hrs on the 17th of October 2006. No matter what time zone you are in the hours are approximately 10:17 am on the 17th of October to 1:17 am on the 18th October. The peak time will be 17:10 (5:10 pm) on the 17th October. You do not need to be in a meditative state through out this time, though would be beneficial. The main key time no matter what time zone you are in will be the peak time of 17:10 (5:10 pm).

Perhaps at this time if you can find a peaceful spot or location to focus. The optimum is out in the vicinity of grounded nature, likened to that of a large tree or next to the ocean waves. Focus on whatever it is you desire. What is required for the benefit of all Earth and Humanity is positive thoughts of loving nature.

We call this UV beam trigger event, .. gateway. Please forward this message to as many people as you know who will use this cosmic trigger event to focus positive, good willed thoughts. We require approximately 1-million people across globe to actively participate in this event. Please use whatever communication mediums you have at your disposal. Reach out to as many people as possible. We require 1-million plus people at the least to trigger a shift for humanity from separation and fragmentation to one of unification and oneness. This is your opportunity to take back what is rightfully yours i.e. Peace and Prosperity for all Earth and Mankind.

This is a gift, a life line from your universe so to speak, an answer to your prayers. What you do with it and whether or not you choose to participate is your choice.

Graffiti Magic and the Urban Landscape

From Key23.net: by Bood Samel in features on Mon Aug 28 10:08:52 EDT 2006 Two of my main interests in life are graffiti, and the practice of ceremonial magic. It wasn’t long after I started stumbling my way into magic that I started to notice similarities, and parallels between the acts of carrying out ceremonial magic, and going out and doing graffiti. Both are self-initiatory processes that transmute how we consciously interact with the world around us. When one picks up the bulky marker, or can of paint, and sets it against the drollness of modern homogenized landscapes, something changes in the mind of the implementer. Suddenly the world becomes a much more fantastic place. Seemingly bland urban landscapes become the playground of a hidden illicit art world. Everything becomes vast, and inspiring, while at the same time personalized. Blurred lines scrawled clandestinely all over the place become sigil gateways into a hidden, yet omnipresent world. Yet experience shows us that the drive towards the rapture of the fantastic belongs at our disposal, and in our individual control. Like magic, graffiti is all around us, but both are hardly noticed by those not involved with either. It already is a form of the occult in the literal sense–hidden knowledge–its experience and understanding available only to the initiated. (entire article is here)

Top 10 Reasons Not to Go for a Psychic Reading

Get Ready For Your One-World Religion

“It’s clear that the global transformationalists are promoting the Earth Charter as the “new scripture.” At the presentation of the Ark, and its “new gospel” contents, we can expect that it will be endorsed by the U.N. The halls of the United Nations has long been a haven for New Age one-world religion spirituality. Former Secretary-Generals like Dag Hammarskjold (founder of the U.N. Meditation Room), U Thant and former Assistant Secretary-General Robert Muller have long been outspoken advocates of a new pantheistic global spirituality, using the U.N. as a vehicle to spread their doctrine.” Rest of interesting article is here.
