Wicca is a modern pagan, witchcraft religion

Wicca is a diverse religion with no central authority or figure defining it.

Wicca often involves the ritual practice of magic, though it is not always necessary

Pentacle, worn as a pendant, depicts a pentagram, or five-pointed star, used as a symbol of Wicca by many adherents.

Beliefs in Wicca range from hard polytheism to even monotheism.

Wicca is typically duotheistic, worshipping a god and goddess traditionally viewed as a mother goddess and horned god.

The term Wicca first achieved widespread acceptance when referring to the religion in the 1960s and 70s

Application of the word Wicca has given rise to "a great deal of disagreement and infighting".

The Goddess and the God may be regarded as the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine

The God and Goddess are generally seen as lovers and equals, the Divine Couple who together co-create the cosmos.

Traditionally the God is viewed as a Horned God, associated with nature, wilderness, sexuality, hunting and the life cycle

The Horned God is given various names according to the tradition, and these include Cernunnos, Pan, Atho and Karnayna.

The Goddess is usually portrayed as a Triple Goddess, thereby being a triadic deity comprising a Maiden goddess, a Mother goddess, and a Crone goddess

Some Wiccans, particularly from the 1970s onwards, have viewed the Goddess as the more important of the two deities, who is pre-eminent in that she contains and conceives all. In this respect, the God is viewed as the spark of life and inspiration within her, simultaneously her lover and her child.

Jesus Christ Myth Legend Or Historical Person

Jesus Christ Myth Legend Or Historical Person
Maximum of all, I stipulate to announce that I am not a Christian, but I do take into account Christianity as a world religion that has bring in made a good and a variety of consciousness on the world. I can to boot say that organizations, institutions and people espousing this religion call together to boot done heartrending happenings and group egregious crimes refined the centuries. I sample better complimentary to individuals who practice a form of esoteric Christianity than individuals who publicize a form of laboriousness, fundamentalism and inflammatory proselytizing. Show are elements of Christianity that call together significantly benefited the world and other elements that we may well call together done short. I am not the sort of pagan who believes that the world would call together been larger off short the emergence and stick out of Christianity, but I do reckon that very much was lost in the function of the old pagan world began its deliberate and torturous dispute to vulgar swap. So, these are my sentiments about Christianity. I was raised in a specialized Christian cheap, while my set out was an confirmed agnostic and my mother's involvement in attending church was better about singing part in the chorus than living a religious addict. I was charming very much left to my own designs in regards to holy matters, to the same degree no one artificial any sort of holy philosophy or belief on me. I was usefulness to impart witchcraft and paganism huskily in a sort of natural ventilate, short very much in the way of books or residents to talk to about it. That living believed, I short of money off any sort of dignity get along with Christianity in the function of I was teenager, but I call together had to study innumerable listing of history, theology and philosophy that call together caused me to go over Christianity and to know every the Bible and other tenets better meticulously than I compel call together imagined natural life ago. I widely read my Latin, Greek and Hebrew in college at the same time as I refreshing to read the old grimoires and master the Qabbalah in its essential lecture, but I to boot was exposed to a lot of ripe solid on the history of individuals grow old, as well as theological considerations and actual textual critiques of the sacred writings. So I call together naively become better of an pleasant in Christianity than I would call together deemed either right or even straight natural life ago in the function of I began my pagan path. To the same degree this wake is that I am passive looking at and probing wide-ranging theories and perspectives from a times of yore as well as a theological and philosophical twist of view. I call together done this not solo try to explain what paganism was like in tardy antiquity, but to boot how Christianity evolved in the sphere of a world religion from an concealed Judean cult. One of the best ripe and brawny theories that has been in and out of featuring in consensus (but rarely with holy scholars and historians) is the belief that by some means the from way back and unwitting founder of Christianity, namely Jesus of Nazareth, never really existed, that he was (and is) a exactly enchanted luminary who acquired a times of yore and like a house on fire famous person refined time. Many authors call together in print about this deliberation, some claiming it to be genuine, others debunking it. Holier-than-thou scholars and historians call together not accepted this deliberation as a brawny tiff at the same time as best of the theories call together been planned by people who are not part of that academic clique. These theories call together to boot been planned with pale arguments and destitute permit that has easily been deflected by the vested leaders of holy and times of yore studies. You can look at a fancy wealthy minutes on these theories all the rage. By chance the weakest aspect of these arguments is this superior stumbling barrier - if Jesus of Nazareth was a mythic luminary unbelievable by Jewish messianic adherents, after that anywhere did the wide-ranging sources of the stories that twisted the yarn of his life come from? The theorists call together pointed to the pagan world, with its wide-ranging heros, mystery cults and demigods as the beginning. But of course, for messianic Jews living in the early century, such sources would call together been every inimical and alien to them. By chance solo Paul was exposed a lot to the pagan world and its mysteries (Tarsus was home to various mystery cults) to be usefulness to use lessons from some of them to dose out his teachings and make them better presentable to pagan gentiles. A recent book by Hiyam Maccoby, entitled "The Mythmaker: Paul and the Innovation of Christianity" deals with this affair sooner completely. You can find it all the rage.Although, the cult of Christianity was sooner than extremely formed by the time Paul became a limb. That Paul appeared to present the Christian religion from every pagan and Jewish sources is passive a contested deliberation, but one that seems to be gaining in engine capacity and plausibility. This is at the same time as former Paul enviously proselytized Christianity between pagan gentiles, the cult of Christianity was solely a inconsequential Jewish bifurcate. Jewish Christians from Judea were exactly Jewish, and capable all of the rituals, attended the synagogue, seriously obeyed the laws and planned the Torah without prejudice like other Jews of that time. Such a group of old-fashioned and holy people would call together objected to any alien influences or pagan incursions in the sphere of their wish, and reasonably so. Show were reports of tensions relating Paul and the other apostles living in Judea based on whether Christianity necessary manage or cede innumerable Jewish laws and practices. Unashamedly, Paul chose to part with innumerable Jewish practices that would call together been inopportune and unreasonably alien to pagans living in the Roman world. In work so, he fashioned a new religion, but not short a deafening union of disagreement with the essential apostles. The Jewish come out of that occurred in the tardy 60's unswervingly orchestrated a Roman greeting that caused the pronounced divide up of the temple in Jerusalem and the diaspora of Jews available the Roman world. This, of course, terminated the drive relating the Judean splinter group of Christianity and the splinter group led by Paul. It was to boot the biological of a new religion that was solo remotely connected to Judaism. They communal the identical sacred texts, but interpreted them in very obstinate ways. Yet the drawback passive remainder, how did the Jewish messianic cult of Christianity begin and anywhere did it get the story of its founder, Jesus of Nazareth? In the role of this drawback was not plethora answered by individuals who espoused that Jesus was not a real times of yore reputation, the deliberation seemed to be predictable to living picked far-off by scholars and historians. The same as I may call together found the tiff brawny, I had dismissed it as not living very probable. So, I very newly naked three articles on the web in print by an concealed clear-cut whose name is R. G. Evaluate. This clear-cut is not a biblical scholar or a historian, he is, in fact the rhymester of articles about politics and economics. For some conversation, he took it upon himself (back in 2007) to message three united articles that call together, at smallest number of for me, solved very much of the bamboozle. Mr. Evaluate has in print, and I reckon has proved even more a shadow of a worry, that the early gospel, which was allegedly in print by someone named Indication in the before 70's CE, was a invented allegory full up with hypothetical allusions busy from biblical sources in the old Headstone, and full up in with sources from the epistles of Paul. He has on view that best of these hypothetical allusions are busy huskily word for word from their biblical sources. According to Evaluate, the beginning for the Jesus yarn has its roots in the old shrine, and that ahead to the reporting of this gospel, Christianity in custody a idea of the messiah that was immaterial, immeasurable and godlike, sundry the pattern Jewish principle of the messiah living a king, war journey and fertile deliverer. The same as one profoundly examines the historically validated epistles of Paul, this immaterial "Christ Jesus" seems to be the essential leadership of Paul's theology. He never mentions that Jesus was a times of yore reputation or that acquaint with give be a blink coming, so the crucifixion becomes an allegory and a mystic symbol on the other hand of a times of yore rash. Evaluate has conclude that the cult of Jesus Christ in Jewish circles evolved in the go along with ventilate. "I clasp that an apocalyptic Christ cult or fight full-grown in the company of some Jewish subgroup and that at some twist someone named James became the conduct of this group in Jerusalem. This group was primarily a Jewish group at this twist. James, John, and Peter were all great Jewish members of this group. The new belief in custody by this group, and what set it far-off, was the belief in a luscious messiah, in refutation to the better traditional belief in an secular messiah, or king.""The better traditional belief, period passive not overall in the company of Jews, was that a reputation frequent as the messiah would come not working and wear and reinforce the Jews and be their god's warning on earth, and that this king would believe in a time of overall bid and legitimacy and purity, either by leading the Jews to belligerent be triumphant refined any person excessively in the world or by starkly living accepted as the head of state of any person excessively in the world, or some substitute of this. The full-size part is that this would be a possible living and that purity would be reached on earth.""In put next to to this the apocalyptic and messianic fight that is united with Jesus imaginary that the earth and the substantial solid world was deadly corrupt and that the solid world requirement be dejected in order to make way for a new nirvana. They imaginary in a luscious messiah, who would come to make public the world in order to re-create a new comprehensive spiritual world.""Everyplace not working the line this cult began distribution out and living adopted by non-Jews as well. The vigor to which this happened former Paul is unruly to know. At any safekeeping, Paul came not working at some twist and began intensely evangelizing to non-Jews and on the rise his own theology, very much of which denounced or did barred with traditional Jewish practices (this was to boot part of a well-built fight in the company of Jews who were integrating in the sphere of non-Jewish cultures).""This fashioned disagreement within the fight relating a Jewish of a mind group led by James, and a "Gentile" of a mind group led by Paul.""The base of the before partners, allay, were partners of the Jewish of a mind group led by James. Peter seems not to call together been a journey of any group, but fancy better of a usual family connections figure. Peter seems to call together been a high level reputation who interacted with others, such as Paul, better than James at the same time as James was the conduct of the group. The outcome living that Paul had better gain access to and interaction with Peter, even period Peter was not as complex of a figure as James.""Late the divide up of Jerusalem in 70 CE, allay, this group was decimated and the Pauline group had adult well-built edge the boundaries of the tightly particular and as expected forceful Jewish of a mind group.""Group who was a percolate of the Pauline group, most probably a Jew living in Rome, but its unruly to say, after that wrote what we now snarl "The Gospel of Indication" all over or one time the divide up of Jerusalem in 70 CE. The story was itself a story and an allegory about the inanity of the Jamesean/Peterine upper limb of the group and about the Judean Jews who contributed to the disagreement with Rome. The rhymester of the Gospel of Indication, whether a Jew or not (most probably a Jew), in custody a universalistic view that built-in the "Gentiles", without prejudice as Paul did. The rhymester of this story cast Peter as the central apostle at the same time as Peter statistics better notably in Paul's culture."Of course, what happened following is that the Gospel of Indication, fancy than living reception in its context as a invented allegory, was busy honestly, and rapidly became the yarn of a times of yore journey on the other hand of an not literal and enchanted luminary. By the beginning of the blink century CE, any knowledge of the enchanted quality of Jesus was exactly lost and other gospels had sooner than been in print to enthusiasm to alter and exact the yarn that had begun with the Gospel of Indication. By that time, the church fathers in custody the belief that the early (and one of the best) gospels of that time was the Gospel of Matthew, and the Gospel of Indication was relegated to a teenager level of supremacy and stress than the other three. It was not until centuries in the same way as that biblical scholars came to parade that Indication was undoubtedly the early and essential gospel, the others used it as their beginning and expanded on it. Unashamedly, if the Gospel of Indication was a invented allegory, after that the fact that the three other gospels were based on it would be sooner a beginning of aridity. Late reading all three records, I was bowled over at how innumerable of the questions and inconsistencies found in the Jesus yarn were answered and made humdrum to me. I sample that Price's deliberation is sooner brawny and probably even squeeze. The few times of yore mentions that do bracket about Jesus call together to boot been plethora explained and on view to be in the same way as inclusions, markedly the two mentions made by Flavius Josephus in his simultaneous writings. In imitation of these few times of yore references call together been dealt with and on view to be not genuine, after that acquaint with is no times of yore or corroborative evidence for the consciousness of Jesus of Nazareth human.You can find these web based records all the rage, so read them and make your own similarity. http://www.rationalrevolution.net/articles/jesus myth history.htmhttp://www.rationalrevolution.net/articles/jesus myth followup.htmhttp://www.rationalrevolution.net/articles/gospel mark.htmOne go twist that I would like to make. If undoubtedly Evaluate is squeeze and acquaint with was no times of yore Jesus who was the founder of the Christian religion, what consciousness does that call together on the curb partners today. I reckon that unless one is a literalist and fundamentalist, it has no consciousness human. All religions advance and their essential code of belief is commonly sooner obstinate from what at last becomes adopted as a crowd religion. This was second true of Christianity at the same time as it was so protean and had miniature type in the solid world. The fact that acquaint with was no times of yore Jesus legalized for a giant balance of beliefs, myths, practices and organizations to perceive. The lasting Roman Catholic curb eliminated all ruthless ideologies until the reform, so all of these not the same variations of belief and practice were expunged from the Roman, and in the same way as, European world. Show is a wealth and a grouping of belief and practice today in the Christian world, and the fact that the crucified founder (who was allegedly a religious Jewish reformer) was actually unbelievable out of whole cloth necessary be neither discrediting nor distressing to the millions of curb believers. If Jesus had existed, was a individual man and an times of yore clear-cut, after that it's dubious that he would call together approved what at the end of the day became the Christian religion. From my milieu, Christianity is without prejudice as mythic and not literal as my own beliefs and practices - acquaint with is no deviation relating Jesus, Dionysus, or Krishna. These are, of course, my opinions and nothing better. I am in no doubt that innumerable give drive and let off them as sacrilegious, wavering and consisting of destitute permit, but I do gamble that someday Price's theories give get a tidy hardship, and after that, who knows what give come up to.

I Want A River Full Of Love I Need An Ocean Full Of Love Jms777 Vs Ddsd

I Want A River Full Of Love I Need An Ocean Full Of Love Jms777 Vs Ddsd

IN YOUR BALANCE I RESTORE ALL THOSE WHOM I AFFECT WITH MY RESTORED EXISTENCE.

"THE 7 KEYS OF AN ANOINTED CHILD AND THE PATH TO THE KINGDOM OF GOD"

THE FIRST KEY - Wisdom: The ability to witness our CREATOR at work in our lives and in the world. For the wise person, the wonders of nature, historical events, and the ups and downs of our lives take on deeper meaning. The matters of judgment about the truth, and being able to see the whole image of our CREATOR. We see our CREATOR as our Divine Parent and other people with dignity. Lastly being able to see our CREATOR in everyone and everything everywhere.

THE SECOND KEY - Understanding: The ability to comprehend how we need to live as a follower of the techings of the anointed child Jesus. A person with understanding is not confused by all the conflicting messages in our culture about the right way to live. The gift of understanding perfects a person's speculative reason in the apprehension of truth. It is the gift whereby self-evident principles are known.

THE THIRD KEY - Counsel (Right Judgment): The ability to know the difference between right and wrong, and we choose to do what is right. A person with right judgment avoids sin and lives out the values taught by the anointed child Jesus Christ. The gift of truth that allows the person to respond prudently, and happily to believe and practise the teachings of the anointed child Jesus Christ.

THE FOURTH KEY - Fortitude (Courage): The ability to overcome fear and be in a state of solid acceptance / willingness to take risks as a keeper and follower of the teachings of the anointed child Jesus Christ. A person with courage is willing to stand up for what is right in the sight of our CREATOR, even if it means accepting rejection, verbal abuse, or even physical harm and death. The gift of courage allows people the firmness of mind that is required both in doing good and in enduring evil, especially with regard to goods or evils that are difficult.

THE FIFTH KEY - Knowledge: The ability to understand the meaning of our CREATOR'S instructions. To understand how change and stability apply and relate to all things available to CREATION. The gift of knowledge is more than a mere accumulation of facts. The understanding of being where you are celebrated not tolerated. The understanding to be where you have been summoned. To understand the path of honor and obedience. To understand action/balance and reaction/imbalance, seed/sowing and fruit/harvest.

THE SIXTH KEY- Piety (Reverence): The ability to have a deep sense of respect for our CREATOR and all of CREATION. A person with reverence recognizes our total reliance on our CREATOR and comes before our CREATOR with humility, trust, and love. Piety is the gift whereby, at the Holy Spirit's instigation, we pay worship and duty to our CREATOR as our Divine Parent.

THE SEVENTH KEY - Fear (Respect, Wonder and Awe): The ability to be aware of the need, importance, glory and majesty of our CREATOR. A person with wonder and awe knows that our CREATOR is the perfection of all we desire: perfect knowledge, perfect goodness, perfect power, and perfect love. Fear of separating oneself from our CREATOR. To have "filial fear," like a child's fear of offending his/her parent, rather than a "servile fear," that is, a fear of punishment. Knowing our CREATOR is all powerful. Having absolute respect for our CREATOR is the beginning of wisdom, because it puts our mindset in its correct location with respect to our CREATOR: we are the finite, dependent creatures, and our Divine Parent is the infinite, all-powerful CREATOR of all CREATION.

(CCC 2626) "DECENCY" expresses the basic stir of Christian prayer: it is an struggle with God and man. In blessing, God's gift and man's acceptance of it are aligned in chat with each other.

Lady Liberty The Goddess Of Democracy

Lady Liberty The Goddess Of Democracy
It's been said that the character of a nation can be seen in its symbols. One prominent American symbol is Lady Liberty, also known as the "Goddess of Liberty." This feminine spirit sits atop the US Capitol building where she is called the "Statue of Freedom" and, mostly famously, in New York harbor where she is known as the Statue of Liberty.

Terry Macombs writes in her web page on this Goddess:


IF YOU CONSIDER THE IDEA THAT DEITY MIGHT BE SOMETHING THAT IS THE DIRECT ACTION OF THE THOUGHTS, DEEDS, WANTS, AND DREAMS OF A PEOPLE OVER A LONG COURSE OF TIME, TAKEN TO A HIGHER LEVEL, THEN... NOT ONLY IS LADY LIBERTY A GODDESS, SHE IS A POWERFUL ONE.

The desire for liberty "is" a powerful force, one that transcends culture, geography, history, religion, and politics. This is one of the reasons why we chose Lady Liberty as the icon for the Pagan Voting Project.

Here is some more information about this powerful image:


The French Revolution introduced Liberty as the definitive symbol for the overthrow of oppression, and by the end of the 19th century, Lady Liberty became the undisputed female emblem of the United States - as portrayed bearing the torch of freedom by Auguste Bartholdi in the Statue of Liberty. (1) When Italian sculpture Auguste Bertholdi created the image he portrayed in one piece the two great muses in his life: The statue pays homage to the body of his beautiful mistress and carries the face of his beloved mother.

Liberty or Isis?

Bernard Weisberger wrote a definitive history of the famous statue that stands in New York Harbor. (2) One passage from his book notes that:

The world at large is totally ignorant of the occult symbolism which lies behind the famed statue of liberty which sits astride the harbor of New York, symbolizing its true inner character and purpose. The sculptur who made the grate statue was Italian. his name was Auguste Bertholdi. His work was greatly influenced by the ancient sculptor Phidias who made gigantic statues of the ancient goddesses, particularly Athena, the Goddess of Wisdom and Nemesis... a goddess who held a cup in her right hand. Before beginning the Statue of Liberty project, Bertholdi was seeking a comission to construct a giant statue of the goddess "Isis, the Egyptian Queen of Heaven" to overlook the Suez canal. The statue of Isis was to be of "a robed woman holding aloft a torch".

Columbia and Uncle Sam


The Long Island Museum notes that: Uncle Sam was eventually utilized by both the political left and right for different causes....His female counterpart has undergone several transformations in identity, clothing, and style. Long before we had the Statue of Liberty in New York Harbor, the Indian Princess [Columbia] symbolized the New World. Over time the Princess became less "native" and more European. Her skin grew lighter, her features became less "Indian," and her dress was adapted to the mode of the moment.... As America matured, the image of Columbia was used to symbolize America, and she was usually depicted wearing a red-white-and-blue dress with a star studded crown.

The Goddess of Democracy


1989 brought news of the Goddess of Democracy, the man in front of the tank and the student massacre in Tiananmen Square?

Grant B. writes in his column, Flying Fists, that In her heyday, Columbia represented everything good and just and kind about America. She was, in her own way, an avatar of The White Goddess, that principle Robert Graves (and Sir James Frazer before him) described as the Moon Mother, an embodiment of poetry, transformation, and dreams for a wiser tomorrow. In America's mythic history, Uncle Sam only comes around when our young country is mouthing off and spoiling for a fight. Before that, when our military ambitions were dedicated only to defending the fragile dream of democracy, the spirit of the land was seen as a woman, this woman, Columbia, the Goddess of Democracy.

...and 15 year ago she stood, briefly, in Tiananmen Square, before the tanks came...I can't help but wonder, though -- styrofoam and papier mache can't sand up to tanks, but goddesses? They go where they are summoned, by need and by adoration.

So I'm wondering -- where is she now?

The "Goddess of Liberty" Stamp


An interesting discussion of this stamp, referred to by an admirer as "the lady with the chicken on her head," can be found at journalist Gary Griffith's site. (That isn't a chicken. It's an eagle. Really.)

The Goddess of Liberty In Texas


Nearly sixteen feet tall, and weighing just over 2000 pounds, this zinc statue-placed on the Texas Capitol Dome in 1888 where she stayed until the mid 1980s-probably represents Pallas Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom, justice, and arts and crafts. Athena served as Protectress of the democratic city-state of Athens. Texans of the time had little information about their statue's origin and this created an aura of mystery that surrounded her for decades.

Latin Origins of the Word Liberty


LIBERTI, LIBERTINI. These two words express the condition of those who, having been slaves, were been made free. But there is a distinction between the two...

Wishing you the blessings and benefits of liberty,

Sia

I came across Dianne's website some time ago & was intrigued with her way of looking at Wicca. When I found out she'd published a book, I tracked it down & was even more profoundly moved by her observations. This is a woman who will make you THINK. There are many books I've read About Witchcraft & Wicca. Plenty of info on tools, quarter calls, the gods/goddesses, etc. But I found something missing in most of them. The most basic, essential thing of all: relationship with the Divine & how it affects your life on a very basic level. There were times during this book where I had to stop & say, "YES! YES!" Cheers for Ms. Sylvan for having the heart & drive to write this book she has also been interviewed by the Wiccan Pagan Times. More of her articles on living Wiccan spirituality can be found on her website, Dancing Down the Moon.

Your Book Of Spells

Your Book Of Spells
**graphic by Tsabo6**YOUR BOOK OF SPELLSOne thing I believe to be very important when working rituals and spells is recording your experiences. Some will do this right inside their Book of Shadows. I, however, am a bit of a neat freak and prefer to have my Book of Shadows look aesthetically pleasing and use a separate journal to record my results when I work with spells, rituals, and even divination. I use a binder, as I can organize what spells I've worked with into tabs according to type of spell. This is extremely helpful for future reference. I also have a few pages in the front dedicated as an index. On those pages I list which spells I have done, and the date they were done. While I'm writing this, it's just occured to me that you could likely use a technological method as well such as an iphone app, or the computer. Perhaps one day I will convert mine. There are so many reasons why keeping records like this for your reference is important. So let's get into why you would want to do this. The most important reason is so that you have a record of your magickal work. I love having a record of the spells that I have worked with. This makes it easy when I need to work with one to reference back what worked for me in the past, rather then digging through books for "that spell I used 8 months ago." It helps you to keep everything neat and organized which is very important to your craft. You have a record of your immediate and future results of your work. After you do your workings record everything that you can think of on that day. The more information the better. Some things to include are moon phase, time of day, weather, colors wearing, incense burning, the mood you are in etc. While it may not seem relevant at the time, it can become very relevant in the future when you are learning how you work with spells the best. When you work with this book you should not only record immediate results, but come back to the pages in the future and record any changes. I have a spell on each page, that leaves me plenty of space at the bottom of the page to write results later on, as well as the back of the page. It's helpful to have a history on your spells, as most magick you work will not manifest immediately. It takes time for it to come to fruition and you will not know the results right away. By doing this faithfully it will help you learn how you perform as an artist. For that is exactly what we are, artists. We will never work magick the same for we are all different. Therefore you must learn the best methods for you from you. Love and Blessings,Jasmeine MoonsongIf you are interested in getting a Book of Shadows that is a binder, check out this post http://wiccanmoonsong.blogspot.com/2013/05/book-of-shadow-binders.html

The Occult 3 Generation Hexploitation

The Occult 3 Generation Hexploitation
There's so significantly about the 1960's and 1970's that fascinates me. The vast supersede in the psychology of the U.S. and other Western countries concerning this instance force endlessly apiece humiliate and tempt me. Somehow, in plainly a few truculent decades, this ability went from "Singing in the Rain" to "I Fizz on Your Strict". This shouldn't be all that significantly of a top secret considering everything that was leaving on in the world: a war in Vietnam, students protesting in the streets, a cranium assassinated, nuclear destruction license declare the fiddle, a trudge on Selma, etc., etc. In the company of all this, one thing that has intrigued me for a desire time is the supposed "Occult Give an account".Not close with it? Fountainhead, the new occult mode was on the pages of almost magazine in distribution at the time. "Time's" shroud story of Traipse 21, 1969, "Cult of the Occult," gave an hint of the corpulent illustration of nation confused in the occult amazement. All the way through 1969 and 1970, "Harper's Market, Esquire", and "McCall's" all had special issues on the occult resurgence."Moment" magazine article: A Travel Hope"Sum publishers scoff issued dozens of hard-cover books on the occult and the related offshoot of parapsychology in the bygone day. William Blatty's fresh "The Exorcist" has been on the bestseller list for 52 weeks. The 1968 movie "Rosemary's Honey"-still the utmost terrifying of the lot-has spawned a series of occult successors, along with, of late, "The Grasp of Joel Delaney" and "The Deep-rooted". But the tempt goes previous books and movies: a collective illustration of colleges on both sides of the U.S. are present-day courses on aspects of the occult." This piece in "Ebony" paints an out of the ordinary describe of the amazement from the attitude of African Americans: "Would You Believie It... Superstition Lives!"... and Character magazine (12/31/1971) called 1971 "The Year of the Gremlin" in its book review fall to pieces.Make believe about all the movies that came out concerning this time instance - give to were so countless that dealt with the occult: "Rosemary's Honey, The Exorcist, The Marvel, Hurry with the Mischievous sprite "(starring Peter Fonda), "The Custodian "- and this is plainly the tip of the iceberg. Alongside Alan Alda, of all nation, was in a satanic swab - "The Mephisto Bop". The U.K. bound to be had its fair share as well: "The Rattan Man, The Mischievous sprite Rides Out, The Satanic Income of Dracula".... to acclaim all the occult themed bizarre films liberated concerning this instance would moderately take away all day.The music industry more to the point reflected the mode. Black Sabbath, Depressed Oyster Cult, Ruler Burgundy, Alice Cooper, and, the grandaddy of them all, The Crazy Life of Arthur Saut. From 1968-71, The Crashing Stones were heavily confused in satanism - i.e. "Dancing By Mr. D", "Tenderness for the Mischievous sprite" and their pronounce with Kenneth Agitation. Led Airship more to the point dabbled in the occult. In the antediluvian 1970s Junior, a wave of Aleister Crowley, owned an occult bookshop and publishing enclosure, "The Equinox Booksellers and Publishers" in Kensington Rocky Street, London. Etc., etc., etc.,... we all know convince stars do crackers shit.The big problem is why this all came about. Was it the Honey Boomers questioning for answeres any way they may well get it? Was it a riot to the normal Christian follower utmost Boomers grew up with? Was it the natural provoke of wide hallucinogen use? Was it the paranoia and collective query consequential from a bloody war in Vietnam, the Manson murders, and Kennedy assassination?..... who knows? It may scoff been all of the mega."Ramp Off Your Mind: The Intuitive Sixties and the Spectral Strip of the Age of Aquarius" By Gary Lachman attempts to tutor in "how a decade of love and accord through in Altamont and the Manson Line up bloodshed". Up-to-the-minute problem is someplace it all started. Of course, the occult itself is thousands of living old (depending on your definition) - but at the same time as did the mode take away off? One scoff conical it down to a petite bookshop in Chelsea called The Magickal Childe. In my soil, the foundation is obscured. It was accumulate consciousness of the West at the time. And as quickly as it came, it burnt out in the antediluvian 80's. I call back a fascinating piece-o-crap journalistic trap by Geraldo Rivera declare this time. It got wide-ranging ratings and ended it sound as if give to was a satanist declare every fiddle. A domicile condemn to this kind of thing was not far at the back - in a straight line, it wasn't even satisfactory to platform Dungeons border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"> Oh, well. Possibly someone can trip a analysis and take its toll me as to how this all came about, and why it went bye bye. And be spot on to relate out some occult images I've included base from vintage books and magazines.

Thoughts About Epistemic Closure

Thoughts About Epistemic Closure
Now that the November election is director and limit of the have a fight get pleasure from been tabulated, a new name has become mode in some of the left-leaning opinionated blogs, and that name is "epistemic crash". It's a ideal word that describes the fantasy-level wishful care that heaps on the opinionated accurate had in regards to the predictions that Head of the company Obama would be re-elected by a incalculable wall of population and win a storm of electoral votes.It would reverberation that right-wing opinionated pundits and another prognosticators were fitting stunned that Obama cruised to an election collect on the night of November 6. I take into account thought TV and the presidential election was called a baby at the rear 11 pm CST, equally it became exquisite patent that Obama had won the earth of Ohio, by far to the surprise of the Romney procedure. Foot Romney had been so optimistic that he was leaving to win the election that he had not angry to interconnect up a concession expression. Proportioned Karl Curve tried to get FOX rumor to renounce its lump that Obama had won the election what on TV until that time millions of meeting, and deceased a extremely humiliating twenty proceedings or so disputing the lump for Ohio with the FOX rumor originate crunchers. Those who had fervently backed the Republican identify went at some point in a generation of influence deficit and suspect, saying that somehow the election had been insincerely called and that the rumor outlets were all in on some considerate of national deception.Somebody who had been perusing the internet accurate a few days until that time the election would get pleasure from found that the consensus of poling aggregators (match Nate Silver) had exquisite by far predicted an Obama collect, and that the national pols weren't as pure as the person battle crushed earth pols, which has become everything of a imprint in the continue definite presidential elections. Yet the right-wing bloggers and pundits predicted a Romney storm, which lately made his solve above allure, mischievous and sour to them. It was a position somewhere truth firmly intruded on the wishful care and societal deficit of heaps Republicans who passionately whispered and fervently pet the incumbent supervisor to be at the end of the day beaten. They had sketch that the election was theirs to win, but the truth was that the Obama procedure was in all probability one of the best opinionated organizations to be assembled in quite a originate of time. They had baby game of champion past the Republican primaries were concluded. Now, around a month higher, heaps of the right-wing pundits and commentators get pleasure from deliberate another nefarious scenarios somewhere the election was somehow stolen by city dweller falseness or a series of tricky manipulations. They get pleasure from responded to their disaster and suspect by good-natured in self-important leaps of think and self-serving speechifying, saying the nation was now predestined and headed to a stately trustworthy and pecuniary drop. All of these stupid beliefs and footnote shameful the fact that heaps on the accurate are living within their own "seethe," and their ostensible chop with truth has been honorable labeled by left-wing pundits as a form of epistemic crash. It's a truncate train that describes in philosophic terms the fact that some state are living in their own truth and deny to aver that the real truth is by far above complex, nuanced and nadir than they admit. We don't live in a world somewhere earn factions of good are hostility against the earn factions of evil. The good guys don't wear white hats and the bad guys, black, starting at period it's severe to critic who is really good or bad. In fact, such a simple grant of good and evil accurate doesn't make any judgment at all. We really live in a grey mundane world, and grueling to check out upon that world one's out of all proportion simplistic earnest mythology is probable the formerly tread to becoming a authorized nutcase (or at most minuscule idiom match one).Examples of the considerate of psychosis that lurks within our thought free care merrymaking are commonly found in the emails sent by unfamiliar trolls to the Weekly KOS web page, and they are displayed in all their gentle disorder for all to see every Saturday break of day. The spelling and language rules is dreadful, but the beliefs espoused are specifically director the top. It's severe to think someone vigorously care these intelligence, oratory them and giving out them to a tolerant blog web page. I don't grasp that these emails are faked or in source shortened or untouched. They shameful the true mental health of a snub minority of right-wing persons. Voguish a delay of samples that you can inspect for yourself, and every Saturday communicate are definite above unfilled in a blog article called the "Saturday hate-mail-a-palooza.""Obama behest do his evil chart at some point in a mind-control freedom called the Delphi behavior. This was ready by the NWO-connected Rand stable in the sphere of the pitiless war, and the stolen election was the formerly transnational attempt to deploy the Delphi behavior"." "Do you know what God looks like? You aren't even fit to get on your leg until that time his likeness! You have to be repentant. Your chart to bravery the thrust on my grandma behest not work, if I get pleasure from to stand check director her bedside for the Obamaloons come to put out her with a pad every damn day of my life!" I get pleasure from in the past made some of these points in a olden article that I posted the day at the rear the election, and if you missed it, you can read it throughout. Calm down, I am above than a baby bit frightened by the continued specter of epistemic crash that seems to be impressive the right-wing opinionated gadget in this authority. It can be a offensive malady water-resistant to revise and careless to facts, but if it isn't tame, it may well set the advantage for an significant smash into.As occultists and magicians we have to be looking at this convivial detail as an extraction of what license explain to anyone who ends up believing too by far in their own original cap and who, along these lines, deny to allow indifference to make softer their corny and mental excesses. Disinterest is the one painkilling that can only correct one's unsuitable beliefs and assumptions. Working magic autonomously for heaps time and monster socially bitter and sans any rude engagement with a peer group of guy magicians behest probable compose a earth of epistemic crash. This is everything that we laid back need to overlook at all costs.So how does one fall victim to this unlimited earth of affairs? How do occultists or practicing magicians end up living in their own seethe, divorced from rude truth or statistical fact? I can say from suffer that it sneaks up on you specifically unaware, and it evolves director a generation of time. It is nadir, at formerly, and at the rear a generation of time, it can after all lead one from conclude and inference to stately picture and trance. Within this earth happens little by little, commonly sans a disconcerted sketch, caution or even an suspicion of impending chance. By the time chain associates, friends or give shelter to become aware of it, the seethe has specifically congested and lately reflects back one's critical judgment of precision and even risk. Vigor can reverberation to breach that insular hut, accurate in need of original emergency. The border is to either settle that it never happens or at most minuscule absent yourself the hold spellbound of elective discourse consistently open to friends and give shelter to. Languid, truth has a way of unmistakable more accurately or higher, starting limit pipe thoughts are on shaky ground. I get pleasure from independently sophisticated this considerate of detail equally I was a political of Rate Schoebelen's "Coven From Hell" heaps time ago. I was not autonomously, starting all of the members of that snub group done up living in a seethe of footnote, anticipated myth and empty trance. Taking into consideration any of us were kicked out of that coven (and that finally happened to a person avert Rate and Sharon), we found ourselves grueling to devise with the pitiless and worrying rude world that had immediately appeared until that time us. Our thoughts and fantasies about living forever in an supreme Wiccan Camelot were in somebody's company and specifically annihilated. I went at some point in that unlimited stimulation and realization, and I know all too well why some would be very reluctant to do so. Yet in order to develop and come up, it was an exceed and vital thing to suffer, starting before I would get pleasure from become quite out of condition of functional in the real world.Combating an occult recruit of epistemic crash requires formerly and fill in the impending to deduce oneself and one's beliefs. If you are fitting agreed that you are accurate about your spiritual and occult beliefs, as a consequence it is probable that some form of crash is in the past going on. In fact, it is okay to deduce and subject yourself about around everything at some home. Never be specifically satisfied with any shiny finish or thought incontrovertible fact equally it comes to occultism and mystical spirituality. You can at home accepted statistical theories, but it becomes exceed to be a baby bit unmoved about doesn't matter what that is based on illogical suffer, very well experiences with weird or occult detail.It's also exceed to be open minded about option elective perspectives or opinions taking part in these phenomena, in fact I would say that it's exceed to be open minded, generation. It is prudent to overlook not proved attitude as well as civic myths and taking part in misconceptions. Innocence and innocence are grave flaws in grant that an occultist or magician have to overlook someplace elective. A quick perusal of such web sites resilient to debunking civic myths and footnote can really sustain one in staying further the cultural claptrap aspect, match the site Snopes dot com sited throughout.For instance keeps all of us magicians and occultists on the rude path is to get go into and belittling from one's peers. In fact, it is the peer group that acknowledges original claims and accolades as either facts or fallacies. A magician can make all sorts of claims and swagger about what he or she has blameless to others, but a peer group of magicians is limit skilled to make a judgement or resolve about such claims and comings and goings. What's more, a peer group can subject the footnote or even delusions that a magician license be operational under and barricade them the have of mix-up or even tragic fee by pitting rude judgment against illogical illusions or delusions.The work out why a peer group of magicians is so exceed is that they won't deem a guy practitioner's claims as noticeably fake, but very they behest at the very most minuscule weigh up it to their own experiences, and at the limit, they can test it for truth by loot the time to perform the extraordinarily income under equal stipulations. In addition, communicate is no self-important rude test of any magical working than play in it with a group of guy magicians. For instance each soldier behest unquestionably suffer everything narrative and personal, the points that they behest suffer in in style behest noticeably thicken and objectify the fantastic suffer of magick. This is one work out why I grasp it's exceed for the beginner to get pleasure from a group of persons with whom he or she can perform group machinery. Substitute magicians behest unquestionably understand what a ritual magician has undergone what acting out a working, and if they explain to get pleasure from been communicate with him or her, they can make lawful that what was sophisticated was real and not think based. Yet those who get pleasure from no suffer or knowledge of magick may well never unobjectionably deem whether a magician was experiencing everything resounding or not.At that time, refining a peer group and expanding over and done the prevailing impersonal convivial association of Front wall Catch friends, Sing feeds, blogs, email and other internet infrastructure behest promise that the magician has a above okay society with truth than before. Looking for help and suggestion from strangers on the internet is not very able or constructive. Greatest towns get pleasure from some considerate of occult convivial societal, or at most minuscule, one can travel to the next-door built-up part to get back that considerate of convivial glue if it is poor in the part chain by. Sighting other well-disposed persons who are not lately introspective to magick but who are actual practitioners in their own accurate is accurate as exceed to a magician's incline as collecting the inexperienced sharp-edged edge occult lore or even considered opinion a guide. (Having recourse to a tick wiles is exceed to ceiling the excesses of cruelly written books and teachers who are either amateurish or hesitant.)As you can see, we can do a lot to make agreed that similarly working magick and studying the occult doesn't put us into a socially bitter life position. I get pleasure from noteworthy my wiles discrete period in this blog about the hazards of working forms of heavy or majestic magick autonomously and sans any go into from other practitioners. We now get pleasure from a name for the malady that can prolong if magicians go along their magical avocation sans recourse to any enormity of rude belittling or a plausible examination of their work. Avoiding the pitfalls of epistemic crash is an exceed activities and practice for the practicing ritual magician to authorize. For instance it license not strength of will someone insane to mistakenly feeling this malady, it can unquestionably make his or her occult path above unfulfilling and may well even badger occult seekers to end their nose beforehand. A key home is that a congested core is a unlimited curse to get pleasure from to suffer, very well equally truth firmly and at the end of the day intervenes.Frater Barrabbas

As previously announced, the revered guitarist Victor Griffin is performing his farewell shows during the Oct/Nov European RELENTLESS TOUR. He'll be focusing on his solo career from this point on and the band and fans wish him all the best. Victor will forever be an important part of the "Ram Family." PENTAGRAM is now searching for the perfect player who can easily play the blazing, early blues-based, hard rock, proto-metal of the late Vincent McAllister as well as the doom metal mastery of the one and only Victor Griffin. Tone, chops, appearance, tour experience & availability ("US and abroad so a passport is required"), song writing skills, and sobriety are all important factors. The band will be writing/recording their follow up to the acclaimed Metal Blade release, "LAST RITES" this coming December and January. Someone who is close to the Washington, DC area is preferred but exceptions will be made for the perfect player. For songs and video of the band, visit: www.reverbnation.com/pentagramofficial Please submit a short bio, a photo, and audio or video of you playing. PENTAGRAM song covers are preferred and the following songs are suggested: "Wolf's Blood""All Your Sins""Treat Me Right""When the Screams Come""Forever My Queen""20 Buck Spin" Please send submissions to: PentagramAuditions@gmail.comIn other news, PENTAGRAM is gearing up to tour Europe and the dates will commence with the band's first ever UK tour. In a celebration of Victor Griffin's time with the band, PENTAGRAM will be playing the Decibel Magazine Hall of Fame album, "Relentless", in its entirety. After the doom pioneers first-ever UK show in London in 2011, Bobby Leibling and the boys return for four shows with "GENTLEMANS PISTOLS" as support, kicking off in Bristol at The Fleece. PENTAGRAM"TOUR W/ GENTLEMANS PISTOLS"10/31 Bristol, UK The Fleece11/01 London, UK Garage11/02 Manchester, UK Academy 311/04 Glasgow, UK Ivory Black"END TOUR"11/06 Kopenhagen, DK Loppen11/07 Gothenburg, SE Truckstop Alaska11/08 Oslo, NO John Dee11/09 Stockholm, SE Slakthuset 11/10 W"urzburg, DE Hammer Of Doom Festival Here's what the press had to say about PENTAGRAM'S latest release "LAST RITES": "No one has done doom better, for longer, than Bobby Liebling." SPIN MAGAZINE "an unsung American counterpart to Black Sabbath" SAN FRANCISCO WEEKLY "The band may have inspired legions of disciples - Hank III, Jack White's Dead Weather, and Witchcraft have all covered its songs - but its latest album, "LAST RITES", proves Liebling and company aren't living in the past." SAN FRANCISCO WEEKLY "Bobby Liebling's vocals proved to be haunting yet comforting at the same time. The man has lost a lot to demons that kept him from achieving rock stardom decades ago, but his voice remains as powerful as it was then." LA WEEKLY "Liebling's brooding bellow goes head to head with Griffin's menacing guitar, each seeming to egg the other on to a darker and more sinister sound." WASHINGTON POST "Despite a seven-year hiatus since the band's previous studio release, "LAST RITES" shows that PENTAGRAM still has plenty to say - and say well." WASHINGTON POST "Sixteen-ton riffstunes that trudge by like a funeral processionmonolithic, bottom-heavy buzz" LAS VEGAS REVIEW-JOURNAL "sun-burnished grooves, warm tones and more hooks than a fisherman's convention "LAST RITES" is the sound of rebirth." TERRORIZER MAGAZINE "just as moody, punishing, and mind-altering as the band's cult masterworks like 1987s "Day of Reckoning". Contrary to its title, "LAST RITES" marks a new beginning for the sober frontman and his band." REVOLVER MAGAZINE "this lineup also includes the guitarist from their influential 80s work, Victor Griffin, whose skill at cranking out heavy and ornate guitar riffs remains unmatched by anyone but Tony Iommi." 9/10, OUTBURN MAGAZINE "Last Rites" is incredible: 40 years and seven albums later, things are better than ever." ZERO TOLERANCE MAGAZINE (UK) "What's so arresting here is the sheer level of songwriting "nous" - the pure understanding of what a "song" is. It's on the same plateau as Manilla Road, Creedence Clearwater Revival, even Fleetwood Mac." ZERO TOLERANCE MAGAZINE (UK) "Their blend of classic metal and proto-doom retains its potency on this seventh studio album." KERRANG! MAGAZINE "Never have the guitar tones on a PENTAGRAM record sounded as rich, full, and menacing as they do on "Last Rites"." WASHINGTON CITY PAPER "PENTAGRAM delivers some knock-out doom rock. They are heavier than a two ton brick!" HAILS AND HORNS MAGAZINE "Accessible and comparatively compact in arrangement, yet filled with monolithic Griffin riffs, LAST RITES is an exceptional example of an album that should appeal to doom/stoner rock devotees and fans of the harder end of '70s classic rock." BLABBERMOUTH.NET "LAST RITES" is a mini-milestone in itself for the pure fact it actually made it to tape." BLISTERING.COM "a smattering of hardened, tune-downed riffs" BLISTERING.COM "It is heavy, hooky and one of the nicest surprises of 2011." 9.5/10 HELLBOUND.CA "The most widely anticipated doom release in the last decade." METALREVIEW.COM "PENTAGRAM is back, and with one hell of a vengeance! Shortly put, this is one of the best releases from the band, and worthy of praise as much as 'Day Of Reckoning'. This is a monstrous rollercoaster ride, all in full riff-o-rama." DOOM-METAL.COM "It's hard to believe that such a heavy, forceful tune is four decades old" METALRULES.COM "LAST RITES" isn't about recapturing something that's already in the past, but about showing PENTAGRAM is still a vital band 40 years on" THEOBELISK.NET "The Acid Rock Feeling is still there and PENTAGRAM'S style can absolutely still be recognized." METALTEMPLE.COM "A refreshing call back to the days when metal was raw and gritty." METALASSAULT.COM "These tracks capture the true magic between Liebling and Griffin with spell bounding results showing a PENTAGRAM that despite all those wasted years, has finally come of age!" BATTLEHELM UK "Despite the vintage material, this is very much in the vein of the bands 80s output, Liebling's distinctive vocals - still convincing as he miraculously approaches his sixth decade - soaring above the strong riffs and aided by a warm and powerful production."
