The Burden of Time


Time be the mechanism by which an entity initially garners momentum. Gradually and firmly establishing an apex of manifestation, individualism, and highly defined somethingness – yet another illusion?

Following this pinnacle of evolution begins the gradual decline of highly articulate personality devolving towards a prior state from whence it came.

Everything comes; everything goes
Everything ebbs, and everything flows

Nothing lasts forever, and it could very well be
that the only thing that is truly eternal,
is eternity itself...

A Chariot that Runs on Fire


We're running on fire. Often times, at night, I can hear the dragons under the hood, hissing and whatnot.
I can feel them moving. Waiting to be released...


Three hundred and twenty-five horses conjured; pulled through the darkness.

The Thing That Should Not Be


Not even negative existence itself could restrain thee,
the thing that should not be,
for it was, is, and will be, again, again, and again
ad infinitum, for all eternity


Given that there is some cosmic temporal resetting mechanism that divides universal iterations.
In either event it's just another case of divinity transcending logic and reason
– which should be of no great surprise at this juncture

Contemporary Media Complements the Formula of IAO


(I) : Isis (EESIS) : Creation :


(A) : Apophis : Destruction :


(O) : Osiris : A New Beginning :


: Ad Infinitum :

It doesn't really make a whole lot of sense that in subsequent iterations of this formula that Isis(the mother) would be replaced by Osiris(the father) since the latter already signifies a creationary event. Instead, it would be the union of Isis and Osiris. The supernal mother conceiving via the supernal father which in turn gives birth to the universe which after many eons would then be followed by Apophis. In this way cyclic iterations involving all three transpire without conflict and simplifies down to creative and destructive events ad infinitum.

Some of the above corresponds to the first three emanations of The Tree of Life which is followed by the six emanations of Yetzirah – the world of angels. Da-ath is not an emanation and has no number.

Yetzirah IS the hexagram...

Tongue of Thorns


A dying romance
bleeding for my sensation

Would death unmask
the azure of the creation

Oh stay far
from my crown of certainties

A dying romance,
the blindmans' torch of ideals

Men of stories,
don't try and robe
my morning star

'cause it will never shine
in your eden



I probably could've added to this other than the restructuring, but I'll just stick it in here because I like the track. Not really big on the "morning star" thing, but I can relate to some of the other bits and bobs. I definitely think it's a decent track worthy of a little space here and an occasional listen, and we wouldn't want anyone so inclined to miss out on this one because it fell through the cracks.

From Ritual Rooms to Drivers' Seat


From fragrance filled chambers
where light frequencies
propagate

To aetheric realms
where other-worldly spirits
lie in wait

Never called of any need,
nor whimsical want,
but only to gather
like a house they haunt

Now these days all gone
with much traveling
at hand
of the charted,
and the uncharted
land

No more ritual garb
of chosen color
now high upon a wall
hangs a wilted flower

No longer do we meet
no longer do we greet
as I now take my place
in the drivers' seat...

What this Thread is About


Aside from the titled content it's about music and writing. Whenever I go for moderate to long drives on brilliant sunny days or overcast and raining – it doesn't matter. I'm always listening to music and flipping through radio stations to find that 'good' song, but when I'm in the house here it's always computer music. I used to put a lot of money into home audio and have a couple drinks and blast the music once or twice a week, but I don't drink alcohol much anymore.

Once I invested in some decent computer audio it soon became the only thing I listen to when I'm at the house now. It was some years ago when I began combining the written pieces with the music, and nowadays I always have a specific thread just for that purpose, so I do make an effort to put up good quality music that I actually want to listen to.

Sure, one doesn't really need the other, but it does certainly seem that one augments the other, to me anyway. Perhaps analogous to a form of alchemy and just taking some rudimentary things and unifying and transforming them into something greater than either could be on their own, like...

Gold


The western (Eastwood) theme seems fitting since I just traded my Ruger SB .44 in for a Ruger New Model Blackhawk .357. I couldn't see taking a picture. This one is exactly the same thing, and it shows up really good on that white background:

Magic | Something from Nothing


The very first magical act that ever occurred,
that would be forever clichéd to no end...

Abra cadabra and hocus pocus
Now you see it, and now you don't,
or now you don't, and then you do,
and since it's an absurdity
any beginning is never true

That is the magic
The magic that's always been happening
without beginning or end...

The Story of Nibiru&Ninib


Marduk(Nibiru) and his late sister Ninshubar(Ninib) were a thrill-seeking planetary duo of the cosmos. They would often get their cosmic kicks by sling-shotting around the sun of the Alpha Centauri system, but one day, the sinister Marduk sent his sibling sister sling-shotting just a sliver of a slice to close and she began to stray. The Centauri sun then proceeded to seduce, seize, and secure her in its death-grip and hold her like she'd never been held before. The Centauri sun relentlessly ravaged the little sister as she circled, searing her skin and savagely steering her closer and closer. Her skin began to crack and burn in unison with the sizzling of her sparse seas...


The self-centered Marduk now soaring solo smugly signed on for a 3630-year orbit around the star of a neighboring galaxy.

The Forest


If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one around to hear it,
does it still make a sound?


Yes, there are always valid observers in the forest,
most of which are hidden and unaccounted for.

Ritual Phenomena | Orbish Phenomenon


Back around 2016 I had this orbish gradient vivid color pattern appearing on my TV screen at the time I was active engaging in rituals. I was never certain if it was just the TV malfunctioning or something else. I bought a new TV and parked that one in a room for a few years, and then started using it in another room for like maybe the past couple years – it's one of those rare HD CRT TVs.

I documented quite a bit about this in my Ritual Phenomena thread under the Ancient Magick category – it was stickied. Anyway, was watching that old TV with a friend the other night and got to thinking about this and how the TV seems fine now, so maybe there really was something supernatural manifesting on that TV back then.

I knew a woman living in a house with a dark energy line I could feel flowing through TV room. She said that the TV would turn on at 2am even when not plugged into the wall.

She also reported a ufo tracking her as she drove home one night - just above the car as she drove through the rural area. There had been other ufo and crop circle stuff nearby

All sorts of weird stuff used to happen around here, these days not so much. At peak times it seemed like a dedicated thread would be a good idea in covering all of it. The surround system here still powers off occasionally when watching TV. It seems events like that are more 'clustered' than evenly spaced out. That system is over twenty years old now, so that could be a possible cause. I am a skeptic when it comes to paranormal activity in general, but I don't doubt the existence of it.
