Well , I guess it's about time for me to post my introduction ,
to my students , and those who perhaps might become such...
Who is this person , claiming to know , and offering this
information , and teaching ?
So...in answer...I grew up , strict Roman Catholic...
Was a voracious reader...and always wanted to know ;
Everything...not just one thing...so I was reading about
ten books a week , for many years...was reading Jules
Verne , Jonathon Swift , Tolkien , and others , by
eight years old...Mythology , especially Gods and
Goddesses , and Folk Tales , Fantasy and Sci - Fi ,
I devoured the Fairy Tales , yet I loved the Sciences ,
and drove my parents crazy with WHY ?
Until they bought me three sets of encyclopedias , and
Scholastic Magazines...which I proceeded to sift through...
I still had questions , unanswered...
I excelled in school...spelling bees , science awards , book
reports...
But , as the years went by , I was more and more disillusioned
with a world that did not seem to make sense...
I found more comfort , in allowing myself to go into places I
discovered in my mind...I was visioning , astral traveling ,
and meditating , naturally , by thirteen , and seeing things ,
others did not...I was a natural sensitive , and could feel
energies , and beings , I was told did not exist...lol..._whistle_
Well , I am Irish , English , Welsh , Southern French...
just comes with the territory...lol...:weirdsmil
So , by thirteen , I decided I was no longer going to church...
Didn't go over very well with my family...but , they dealt
with it...after a few major battles...
I began having strange waking trance states...in body ,
yet even though I was completely aware of my environment ,
I could not interact...not function , as though my mind
was in one place , my body another...when it happened a
few times in a classroom , I was taken for testing at two
universities...old style EEG tests...wires in the head...
Well...they found a serotonin imbalance...and my amount
of melatonin , was very high...which for those who know
some neurochemistry , from a mystical point of view , can
affect the psyche in very interesting ways...I was going into
otherworlds...I had a very high metabolism...mercurial
mindstates...and no drugs...flashbacks before the fact...
The drugs came later , in the 70's ...of course...lol...:gagged:
So...many moons later , I was in a high school , where
you got to schedule your own day in class...and I got to
teach a poetry class , and , with another student , taught
a class on time travel...I arranged for my teacher to allow
me to do independent art projects...basically , I became a
radical , and began becoming interested in people like
Tim Leary , and Jerry Rubin , Abbie Hoffman , and
was listening to the 60's and 70's bands...
I lived in the S.F. Bay area , and was exposed to new
and very different realities...and experimented with a
substance , or two...but not until senior year , after two
years of asking questions , and researching , including
reading High Priest , by Tim Leary...but then...lol...
Let's just say...I was wiser than most...and still lucky...
The next few years were a whirlwind...from moving back
East , halfway through my senior year , to being in a new
high school , where there were race riots , and police in the
hallways...culture shock...family relations were weird...
I was living in an old attic , by the seacoast , and began
seeing little people in my room...I had already met the
mescalito spirit , in California...on a class trip...ahem...
Well , after I graduated , things got weirder , and I ended
up checking myself , into a Quaker Hospital , for six months...
That was another trip...
So , when I signed out , I stayed with family for six months ,
back in California...then , rented my own place...then went
on the road , was a carnie , then moved to California coast ,
and country inland , in mid 70's...back to the land , hippie
life...then , on the road , hitching...living on the road , and
working , communes , ran a juice farm , with a few others ,
worked on a riverboat in New Orleans...slept on the beaches
in Florida , worked in Maine , dug ditches with rednecks ,
in Texas , with hair down to my *** , and earned their
respect...grew herb in the mountains of Arizona...living
by myself 6500' high , in a hundred year old goatherder's
cabin...talking with the Spirets...and the animals...
I hiked two miles for my water...ground my coffee with
a wood burl , lived very primitive...wild coyotes adopted
me , and began hanging around , watching me...
I was in the realm of the Spiret Helpers , and they let me
know that...many experiences..._whistle_
Well , end of the year...California coast , for many years...
I lived in a teepee , or lodge , on top of a mountain...with
a friend , who had a lodge , with solar powered electricity ,
and an English telephone booth outside the lodge...lol...:weirdsmil
I made tofu , worked many various jobs , then two of my
own businesses , one with a partner , in life also , for
seven years...was prominent in the new age , and magickal
fair circuits , and was always learning , and speaking with
others , including some heavy duty authors , and lecturers ,
who would often ask me how I knew certain things...
I began making medicine pieces , but with esoteric , and
multi-cultural symbolism...some were collected by authors ,
other artists , and a few native elders , who complemented
my work...it ended up , with one elder , who came into a
booth , and basically confirmed I was a wolf spirit...and
offered me my totem animal , in exchange for two pieces...
He raised wolves...
I will continue , next post...that which led me here , from
twelve years ago...much shorter story , though...and this ,
from a one fingered typist...lol...:weirdsmil
