Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: Everything that I had believed prior to understanding how the
- 0:03Speaker 1: world works was completely shattered. And I think in that
- 0:08Speaker 1: point my opinion, I think, you know, shadow work is
- 0:13Speaker 1: very very important to even have this experience, but I
- 0:15Speaker 1: think it's going to actually be much more If that
- 0:17Speaker 1: is important, you know, it's not as important, but much
- 0:19Speaker 1: more important dealing with what's going to go through your
- 0:23Speaker 1: head after.
- 0:23Speaker 2: You have this experience of trying to make sense of it.
- 0:26Speaker 1: And that could be I guess maybe my dark Knight
- 0:30Speaker 1: of the soul, because it's like one I realized I've
- 0:33Speaker 1: probably been lied to, a miss understood, and now I
- 0:36Speaker 1: have to sit here and try to think am I
- 0:38Speaker 1: crazy and have I lost it?
- 0:39Speaker 2: Or am I actually aunts?
- 0:43Speaker 1: And that gets scary, so like even like progressively or
- 0:48Speaker 1: even maybe the last one.
- 0:49Speaker 2: But it had brought me to that, to even going
- 0:51Speaker 2: to the hospital.
- 0:52Speaker 1: There was just like a lot of stuff that was
- 0:55Speaker 1: shattering my ideas of existence.
- 0:59Speaker 2: I don't know what it is.
- 1:00Speaker 1: That made me think this, but because of one of
- 1:03Speaker 1: those experiences, something just popped up in my head and said,
- 1:05Speaker 1: look into the eyeballs in the brain. I don't know why,
- 1:10Speaker 1: And then I started looking into that and I was
- 1:12Speaker 1: like Jesus fucking Christ. There's so many sigils and symbolism
- 1:14Speaker 1: and in here it's fucking insane. And then you start realizing,
- 1:19Speaker 1: like what I thought magic is the idea that the
- 1:23Speaker 1: Oto gave me or any other place the Satan. And
- 1:27Speaker 1: I think I was a little bit resentful for that
- 1:28Speaker 1: to begin with, because if what I do think is
- 1:30Speaker 1: actually happening, and if I really did experience crossing the Abyss,
- 1:34Speaker 1: I think you should be a little bit more open
- 1:36Speaker 1: about what somebody is going to go through and what
- 1:37Speaker 1: their experience is going to be. Stop with so many
- 1:39Speaker 1: fucking secrets, because I don't think it's healthy for somebody
- 1:44Speaker 1: to have that experience not really knowing what the fuck
- 1:46Speaker 1: they're doing, because again, if you're not mentally strong enough
- 1:50Speaker 1: for it, I do think it will warp your mind
- 1:52Speaker 1: and fuck you up. Do you think I'm not patting
- 1:57Speaker 1: myself on the back saying I was a gangster because
- 1:59Speaker 1: I dealt with some serious shit in my head to
- 2:01Speaker 1: be able to catch where I am now after these experiences.
- 2:09Speaker 3: HI welcome to Beneath the Bloom. I'm Syria Saint Sinclair.
- 2:12Speaker 3: Beneath the Bloom is a passion project born from my
- 2:15Speaker 3: endless curiosity about people and their stories. I am a
- 2:18Speaker 3: persepane dvote and it is a reflection of my work
- 2:21Speaker 3: with her. Beneath the Bloom follows the myth of her transformation.
- 2:25Speaker 3: It starts in the meadow, then the descent into the underworld,
- 2:28Speaker 3: and ultimately her sovereigny. Turns conversations with witches, occultists, seekers,
- 2:33Speaker 3: and fellow wanderers. We explore the threads that connect us,
- 2:36Speaker 3: the endurance, the reclamation, and the quiet beauty of choosing
- 2:39Speaker 3: meaning in a world that often misunderstands us. Through conversation,
- 2:42Speaker 3: we explore what it means to fall apart, to rediscover
- 2:45Speaker 3: ourselves into bloom again, each in our own unique way,
- 2:49Speaker 3: and somehow we all go through it collectively. Beneath the
- 2:52Speaker 3: Blue uses storytelling, humor, and raw vulnerability to explore how
- 2:58Speaker 3: personal practice, shadow work, and devotion helps us bloom in
- 3:01Speaker 3: the dark. These conversations are not just interviews, they're mythic
- 3:04Speaker 3: maps of transformation. Hi, welcome to Beneath the Bloom. Conversations
- 3:09Speaker 3: rooted and personal truth, shadow paths, and the sacred blossom
- 3:12Speaker 3: into sovereignty. Today, my guest is Nick with the Occult rejects.
- 3:16Speaker 2: Welcome, Nick, thank you very much for having me on.
- 3:19Speaker 2: Appreciate it.
- 3:20Speaker 3: So Nick is originally from New York and now in
- 3:23Speaker 3: North Carolina. He's been studying the occult for over a
- 3:26Speaker 3: decade and was a member of the Oto is it
- 3:29Speaker 3: Ta Hoodi to Hoodi Lodge for a few years. He's
- 3:33Speaker 3: big into the Kabbala, planetary magic and theragy. He also
- 3:37Speaker 3: tries to come from an academic and scientific angle, and
- 3:40Speaker 3: it's not all dicks and demons. According to his words, welcome,
- 3:47Speaker 3: and so I want to go ahead and start off
- 3:49Speaker 3: with the meadow where let's go ahead and start with
- 3:52Speaker 3: like where are you from? And when did you come
- 3:54Speaker 3: first come across the occult or become an occultist?
- 3:59Speaker 1: Like again, I originally grew up in New York. It
- 4:02Speaker 1: was a Suffolk County. I lived down in ron Konkoma
- 4:04Speaker 1: when I was a child, So right there, like that's
- 4:08Speaker 1: even a big thing that I sometimes refer back to
- 4:11Speaker 1: even when I'm on my own show or on other shows.
- 4:13Speaker 1: The fact of I don't know if because there ron
- 4:16Speaker 1: Konkoma was known. First off, everywhere I lived had Native
- 4:19Speaker 1: American streets, so we were already had the idea that
- 4:23Speaker 1: was Native Americans buried underneath the houses and there might
- 4:26Speaker 1: be spirits. We had Lake Ronkonkoma that had a story
- 4:30Speaker 1: with it that every year the princess of the lake
- 4:33Speaker 1: would take a mail because of some story about wanting
- 4:35Speaker 1: to marry a white guy when she was younger. The
- 4:37Speaker 1: faller said no, and somehow they both you know, almost
- 4:40Speaker 1: Romeo and Juliet both dead somehow at the end. So
- 4:43Speaker 1: now she always takes a male. And as long as
- 4:46Speaker 1: I live there, that always happened. At least one dude
- 4:49Speaker 1: every year drowned in that lake. So we're just like yo,
- 4:51Speaker 1: you know, as a kid, yeah, you start thinking this
- 4:55Speaker 1: stuff is like, you know, real. So even as a child,
- 4:58Speaker 1: probably with all that stuff from around me, I was
- 5:00Speaker 1: already open to just paranormal and myths and lore. I
- 5:06Speaker 1: did kind of grow up in somewhat of a religious household,
- 5:11Speaker 1: and you know, Christians slash kind of like Catholic, and
- 5:15Speaker 1: I think due to that, I mean, you have to
- 5:17Speaker 1: start worrying about the devils, and eventually I'm gonna get
- 5:20Speaker 1: intrigued by that as well, I guess.
- 5:22Speaker 2: At some point, you know what I'm saying.
- 5:24Speaker 1: So it's just you know, I just even think that
- 5:27Speaker 1: whole economy or that whole situation that just made me
- 5:29Speaker 1: very interested in everything, you know, like well, you know, well,
- 5:32Speaker 1: who's this character that supposedly is going to you know,
- 5:34Speaker 1: make me do all.
- 5:35Speaker 2: These bad things.
- 5:36Speaker 1: So just even as as grown up as a kid,
- 5:39Speaker 1: growing up, I think I was just very interested in
- 5:41Speaker 1: just the idea of heaven and hell. I believed again,
- 5:45Speaker 1: like in the paranormal. My my father and mother even
- 5:48Speaker 1: believed in ghosts. They thought the house might have been
- 5:50Speaker 1: haunted at times. So all that stuff, I'm sure had
- 5:54Speaker 1: something to do with just me being open to unusual things,
- 5:57Speaker 1: I guess, or.
- 5:57Speaker 2: You know, not the normal.
- 6:01Speaker 1: Uh there was at times there was satanic panic in
- 6:05Speaker 1: our neighborhood too, believe it or not.
- 6:06Speaker 2: Growing up so again like this stuff is in my.
- 6:08Speaker 1: Face, And I guess as a child, I was a
- 6:10Speaker 1: little bit more inquisitive than.
- 6:12Speaker 2: Scared to where I was like, oh, what is this stuff?
- 6:14Speaker 1: Like what's going on? You know, why is that bad?
- 6:16Speaker 1: And not saying it's not bad. I want to know,
- 6:18Speaker 1: like what it is, what is it that makes that bad?
- 6:21Speaker 1: And I mean to the point where it's like even
- 6:23Speaker 1: a few houses down looking at it. Now, I couldn't
- 6:27Speaker 1: tell you if there were satanic. I mean even that
- 6:29Speaker 1: word itself. I mean it's missed whatever. You know what
- 6:33Speaker 1: I'm getting at the way people it is wrong in
- 6:35Speaker 1: my opinion, But growing up, I thought there was satanic
- 6:39Speaker 1: because like they they had cars that literally had sigil
- 6:42Speaker 1: spray painted on them and you hear them blasting, well
- 6:44Speaker 1: actually playing.
- 6:45Speaker 2: They had a band playing death metal out of the house.
- 6:48Speaker 1: So to me, I'm thinking this is like basically moment
- 6:50Speaker 1: Angel lived down, you know, lives down the box for me,
- 6:52Speaker 1: and I got satist and you know, as and your
- 6:54Speaker 1: parents are telling you, the neighbors are talking about it.
- 6:57Speaker 1: You know, these people are weird. So like I even
- 6:59Speaker 1: think I got Satanists living on my block. And then
- 7:02Speaker 1: at one point down the road, crazy story. People can
- 7:04Speaker 1: look it up and ron Khan Khama. Some kid thought
- 7:07Speaker 1: Dungeons and Dragons told him to kill his parents. So
- 7:09Speaker 1: we off to one of them, whoa, yeah, so now
- 7:12Speaker 1: we got like, you know, Dungeons and Dragons, and you
- 7:14Speaker 1: know this occult game that's telling kids to kill people,
- 7:17Speaker 1: is you know, actually doing it. Well, the kid was
- 7:19Speaker 1: play sick anyway, But you know what I'm saying, so
- 7:21Speaker 1: I got that going on, and then you no, lie.
- 7:24Speaker 1: Two years later, this is the craziest thing. That house
- 7:28Speaker 1: that that kid did that in was on a corner
- 7:29Speaker 1: house at a light. A couple of years later, somebody
- 7:32Speaker 1: blew the light and ended up in an accident and
- 7:34Speaker 1: went into the house and killed the rest of the people.
- 7:36Speaker 2: He didn't kill and he just like what they hit
- 7:41Speaker 2: them with the car through the house. What went through
- 7:46Speaker 2: the house and killed people?
- 7:48Speaker 3: She di too. Uh No, he was jil oh, okay,
- 7:53Speaker 3: God if he.
- 7:53Speaker 2: Wasn't in he wasn't in that house anymore. I can
- 7:56Speaker 2: tell you that, you know.
- 7:58Speaker 1: I mean he was young enough to maybe went into
- 7:59Speaker 1: like you know, uh, your mental institute instead of jail.
- 8:02Speaker 2: I don't know.
- 8:02Speaker 3: Yeah, how old are you? M M.
- 8:06Speaker 2: This might have been before my teens.
- 8:08Speaker 3: Oh that's really scary, That's what I'm saying.
- 8:10Speaker 2: Like, yeah, yeah.
- 8:11Speaker 1: There was one time where animals were going missing in
- 8:13Speaker 1: a neighborhood and the whole rumor was that the Satanist
- 8:15Speaker 1: were killing.
- 8:15Speaker 2: Them, you know, and who knows even what it was.
- 8:19Speaker 1: I don't know, maybe people's animals, which just I mean
- 8:21Speaker 1: our dog maybe just hopped defense and didn't come back that.
- 8:24Speaker 2: You know, I'm saying that's quite possible.
- 8:26Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
- 8:26Speaker 2: But you know, just having all this stuff in.
- 8:28Speaker 1: My life growing up, especially like oh little Satan, Satan Satan.
- 8:33Speaker 1: I guess you know. I'm in North Carolina. It's also
- 8:36Speaker 1: considered the biggest occult state, I think, in the country.
- 8:39Speaker 1: And I think it's due to the fact that, I mean,
- 8:40Speaker 1: you have the Bible belt going through here. When you
- 8:42Speaker 1: have something forced in your face, it's just gonna be
- 8:44Speaker 1: a reaction at some point to go to the complete
- 8:46Speaker 1: opposite or be intrigued by the other end. I think
- 8:48Speaker 1: that's kind of what happened to me having that stuff
- 8:51Speaker 1: constantly in my face. I just got interested in all
- 8:54Speaker 1: of it. So, like long story short, throughout school, uh,
- 8:59Speaker 1: you know, it was interested in you know, paranormal.
- 9:01Speaker 2: UFOs, you know, bigfoot stuff like that.
- 9:04Speaker 1: I had a few friends that were considered themselves wicked,
- 9:07Speaker 1: and I thought they were pretty cool, and like you know,
- 9:10Speaker 1: I would talk to them sometimes and ask them about
- 9:12Speaker 1: their stuff. I thought it was really interesting. But I guess,
- 9:15Speaker 1: like you know, neither maybe afraid to get into it
- 9:17Speaker 1: or just whatever. Got other stuff. I'd rather play my
- 9:19Speaker 1: guitar or I don't know stuff like that. But eventually,
- 9:23Speaker 1: like fast forward, probably like into my mid twenties, I
- 9:29Speaker 1: started getting a little bit more into like conspiracy stuff,
- 9:33Speaker 1: but like the stuff I came across was more like
- 9:36Speaker 1: Michael Tassarian, who's that that, Mark Passio, David Ike, Jordan Maxwell,
- 9:44Speaker 1: people that, you know, people that kind of heavily touch
- 9:46Speaker 1: on the occult anyway, and that may not necessarily always
- 9:50Speaker 1: do it in a bad light either. That interested me
- 9:54Speaker 1: a lot more when I started getting into the cult,
- 9:56Speaker 1: because I did believe, going back to when I was
- 9:59Speaker 1: in school, I did believe that these people that are
- 10:01Speaker 1: into that stuff were probably legit.
- 10:03Speaker 2: So I believe that it actually works.
- 10:05Speaker 1: You know, I believe this stuff was real because it
- 10:07Speaker 1: was throughout my face honestly, even like I've been talking
- 10:10Speaker 1: about this supposed Satanists down the road, you know, I'm
- 10:12Speaker 1: already you know, due to all that, I believe this
- 10:14Speaker 1: stuff is real. So I'm taking the occult as you know, real,
- 10:18Speaker 1: which you know it is to me. So I got
- 10:21Speaker 1: interested in that stuff and listen to a lot of things,
- 10:24Speaker 1: a lot of lectures, you know, a lot of podcasts.
- 10:26Speaker 1: Well there really wasn't podcasts back then. Actually, it was
- 10:28Speaker 1: more of like long form YouTube videos really, and I
- 10:32Speaker 1: got into this stuff, would research on my own, just
- 10:36Speaker 1: to look up different things. And after a while, at
- 10:39Speaker 1: some point, I was like, you know, I know all
- 10:42Speaker 1: these orders, I know all these names and all these
- 10:44Speaker 1: supposed bad people. I zero have zero clue what the
- 10:49Speaker 1: hell magic still is. I have no idea, you know,
- 10:53Speaker 1: So like, where is this getting me? Because I actually
- 10:55Speaker 1: want to try to understand what his magic was the occult,
- 10:57Speaker 1: like what's going on there? So I was like, maybe
- 11:00Speaker 1: I should actually like join an order, you know, this
- 11:04Speaker 1: time yet now at this point, I'm into.
- 11:06Speaker 2: My thirties at some point, okay, and.
- 11:10Speaker 1: Yeah, I was started thinking maybe I should like try
- 11:13Speaker 1: to like visit one of these places, you know. And
- 11:17Speaker 1: at this point already okay, at this point, I would
- 11:20Speaker 1: have already bought books.
- 11:22Speaker 2: I think I had Donald Michael.
- 11:23Speaker 1: Craig's Lessons in Ceremonial Magic or Lessons of Magic, whatever
- 11:27Speaker 1: that book is.
- 11:28Speaker 2: I had that book.
- 11:29Speaker 1: I had a few other books that I was already reading,
- 11:31Speaker 1: already starting to practice like certain things, and it was
- 11:35Speaker 1: I started I can't remember exactly because I don't want
- 11:38Speaker 1: to make a wrong accusation on somebody, but somebody's work
- 11:42Speaker 1: that had libor rush in it did not match Crowley's
- 11:46Speaker 1: libor rush it like one of the things was moving around,
- 11:49Speaker 1: and I was like, well, why that's not the original thing.
- 11:54Speaker 1: Like so like now I'm thinking in my head, like
- 11:56Speaker 1: can I not even trust books? And I got to
- 11:57Speaker 1: go to the orders themselves and actually have somebody there
- 12:00Speaker 1: this stuff to me. I started thinking like maybe I
- 12:02Speaker 1: should get involved and learn from other people and have
- 12:05Speaker 1: people to learn from. Yeah, I mean to have people
- 12:07Speaker 1: to talk to too and stuff. And so I sort
- 12:11Speaker 1: of looking and there was some people that I knew
- 12:12Speaker 1: that were already in the community from being on like
- 12:14Speaker 1: Facebook groups or just like on social media kind of
- 12:17Speaker 1: like lurking and just talking to a few people here
- 12:19Speaker 1: and there. And I knew somebody was in the Masons,
- 12:23Speaker 1: and they were like, dude, like you're gonna waste your
- 12:25Speaker 1: time for a long time before you can even start
- 12:28Speaker 1: getting into rituals because they're not even gonna act like
- 12:30Speaker 1: that shit exists at a certain certain degree.
- 12:34Speaker 2: So I was like, all right, just screw that. There
- 12:37Speaker 2: wasn't a golden doorn near me.
- 12:39Speaker 1: I actually would have probably have preferred that that's what
- 12:42Speaker 1: I was looking more for because I thought I might
- 12:46Speaker 1: have been a little bit more like academic or a
- 12:48Speaker 1: little bit more studious. And but then I happened to
- 12:51Speaker 1: notice all this and Oto Lodge twenty five minutes away
- 12:54Speaker 1: from my house. I was like, I was like, you know,
- 12:56Speaker 1: I've read Crowley stuff. I even read some.
- 13:00Speaker 2: You know, it was interesting. He has a lot of
- 13:01Speaker 2: shit in prison.
- 13:02Speaker 1: Believe it or not, I was in prison at one
- 13:04Speaker 1: point and he had tons of stuff that guy's books
- 13:07Speaker 1: floating around. I had heard of him prior to them,
- 13:10Speaker 1: but I had come across more of his stuff in
- 13:12Speaker 1: there and read it and still thought it was just like, Yo,
- 13:14Speaker 1: this shit's nonsense. It makes no fucking sense to me.
- 13:16Speaker 1: I actually thought it was a bunch of garbage, and
- 13:18Speaker 1: I was like, I don't get it. But then I
- 13:21Speaker 1: was like still eventually, like you know, when I was
- 13:24Speaker 1: out of prison and started getting into practicing more, and
- 13:27Speaker 1: when I came across the Oto and his work, I
- 13:30Speaker 1: some reason at that point I was like, yeah, there's
- 13:32Speaker 1: something here. I just don't think I was able to
- 13:34Speaker 1: even conceive what the guy was talking about then, so
- 13:38Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I'll try the Oto. It
- 13:41Speaker 1: had a little bit more of it's maybe a little
- 13:45Speaker 1: bit more different imagery than I was looking for. It's
- 13:47Speaker 1: a little bit more darker looking. But uh, I was like,
- 13:50Speaker 1: oh fuck, I'll try it out. And then when I
- 13:52Speaker 1: got there, I was like, oh, these people all like harmless.
- 13:54Speaker 2: Nice people. Yeah.
- 13:56Speaker 1: Yeah, they're all just nerds like me honestly, and so yeah.
- 14:02Speaker 1: So but eventually I was like, you know what, let
- 14:04Speaker 1: me go, let me hit this place up. And you know,
- 14:08Speaker 1: these secret societies aren't as secret as people think they are,
- 14:10Speaker 1: or at least hiding themselves. Maybe they're mysteries and mysteries
- 14:14Speaker 1: they might keep secret like the stuff that you can learn,
- 14:17Speaker 1: but their existence they don't hide it. So it was
- 14:19Speaker 1: really easy. I mean, I'm sure you would know. It's
- 14:20Speaker 1: really easy to go find these places if you want
- 14:22Speaker 1: to go find them.
- 14:23Speaker 2: You know, they.
- 14:24Speaker 1: Themselves so yeah, well they also they want people to
- 14:27Speaker 1: come there too.
- 14:28Speaker 2: They have bills to pay, like you know what I'm saying,
- 14:30Speaker 2: like it would help.
- 14:32Speaker 1: So I found a hoodie lodge and I was like, oh,
- 14:35Speaker 1: we'll go to a Gnostic mass and I think there
- 14:39Speaker 1: was one like a month away, which to Hoodi Lodge
- 14:41Speaker 1: has like every weekend, very active lodge a lot of people,
- 14:45Speaker 1: and I will say the Gnostic Mass is done. Correct there,
- 14:49Speaker 1: I'll give them that too. We were talking about that earlier.
- 14:53Speaker 1: I when I hit them up, they were like, that's
- 14:55Speaker 1: a month from now. They're like, just hit us up
- 14:57Speaker 1: again and we'll give you directions on how to get here.
- 15:00Speaker 2: Want to come? I was like, all right, not a problem.
- 15:02Speaker 1: Uh So at that point I had even watched the
- 15:03Speaker 1: Gnostic Mass on YouTube Chuck checked it out.
- 15:06Speaker 2: I was like, Oh, no problems. It looks a little weird.
- 15:08Speaker 1: Well, it looks a little weird maybe to other people,
- 15:10Speaker 1: but to me, I was just like, yeah, this is
- 15:12Speaker 1: no big deal. I can handle this, and uh I
- 15:15Speaker 1: went Eventually I hit them up I think a couple
- 15:17Speaker 1: of days before the Gnostic Mass, and then they had
- 15:19Speaker 1: given me directions or you know, the address and stuff
- 15:21Speaker 1: and let me know how to get there. I will say,
- 15:24Speaker 1: first going there, I don't want to give like too
- 15:26Speaker 1: much away on how they are with like talking about them,
- 15:28Speaker 1: you know, specifically, but like this setup was weird because
- 15:32Speaker 1: it was in like an apartment building, so you can't
- 15:35Speaker 1: just walk in.
- 15:36Speaker 2: There was like a gated it's like a gated place.
- 15:39Speaker 2: So in the directions.
- 15:40Speaker 1: It tells you, like, you know, across the street from
- 15:42Speaker 1: the lodge, there's a park. They'll sit at the bench
- 15:43Speaker 1: and like there'll be people out there, and I'm like,
- 15:45Speaker 1: what the fuck.
- 15:48Speaker 2: So they're like i'd like driving and un parking, and
- 15:51Speaker 2: I'm like walking down the road and I see, I'm
- 15:53Speaker 2: just gonna keep it.
- 15:53Speaker 1: Realized saw like a group I looked like goth kids,
- 15:55Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, that's that's good. Yeah, they're
- 15:58Speaker 1: all wearing black. You know, it's probably the guy, you know,
- 16:01Speaker 1: the people there. So I walked over and just you know,
- 16:04Speaker 1: all hung out. And then I saw a guy come
- 16:05Speaker 1: out with the key on locking the gate, being like
- 16:08Speaker 1: all right, you know, I was like, oh, okay, this
- 16:10Speaker 1: just makes sense. You can't just walk in, you know.
- 16:12Speaker 1: It almost made me feel a little bit safe. Actually,
- 16:13Speaker 1: I know, some crazy guy, you know, you want to
- 16:15Speaker 1: get some school shooters showing up. He's probably not gonna
- 16:17Speaker 1: get in right away, you know. But so I was like,
- 16:22Speaker 1: all right, that made sense. But at the first, you know,
- 16:24Speaker 1: at the beginning, I was already like, okay, this is
- 16:25Speaker 1: getting weird. But so I finally went downstairs, you know,
- 16:29Speaker 1: hung out, you hang out in the main room for
- 16:31Speaker 1: a while and then you know, people bullshitting. I'm sitting
- 16:35Speaker 1: there just nervous, like what the fuck am I doing here?
- 16:37Speaker 2: And starts up and I will say for people like,
- 16:43Speaker 2: I'm not vanilla.
- 16:43Speaker 1: But it did freak me out because I was like, Okay,
- 16:45Speaker 1: on YouTube, they don't show titties, So when that shit
- 16:49Speaker 1: came out, I was just like, Yo, what the fuck's
- 16:51Speaker 1: going on now? I was like, Yo, this shit turns
- 16:54Speaker 1: into eyes white shut, I'm getting the fuck out of you.
- 16:57Speaker 1: And I'm like, yo, Like literally, I'm like standing there.
- 16:59Speaker 1: You haven't been to a mask, so like you don't
- 17:01Speaker 1: know what, like two rows of people and then you
- 17:03Speaker 1: have everything going up there and I'm like kind of
- 17:05Speaker 1: in the back. So it's just I just got this
- 17:07Speaker 1: whole view and I'm just like, yeah, like I'm really here.
- 17:10Speaker 2: Right now, Yeah happening.
- 17:14Speaker 1: And I was like and two weeks later I went back, no,
- 17:21Speaker 1: I will say, you know, and I don't know if
- 17:23Speaker 1: maybe maybe she was smart about it too. The priestess,
- 17:27Speaker 1: you know, the one with the tits out, approached me
- 17:30Speaker 1: after the fact and was like, you know, we sometimes
- 17:32Speaker 1: we do classes, So I don't know if it was
- 17:34Speaker 1: already like, you know, that uncomfortable, weird situation, or maybe
- 17:37Speaker 1: she thought I might have enjoyed what I saw, you know,
- 17:39Speaker 1: who knows. Was trying to like, at least talk to
- 17:41Speaker 1: me and tell me that there's other things here besides this.
- 17:45Speaker 1: We have some classes sometimes we cover people's history, and
- 17:49Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, I think I'll come
- 17:51Speaker 1: back for something else m And I did, and I
- 17:54Speaker 1: thought it was really good. So I was like, you
- 17:56Speaker 1: know what, I don't think I'll just stay and I'll
- 17:57Speaker 1: get used to the uncomfortability of just random boobs, you
- 18:00Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. I mean, it's normally not a
- 18:02Speaker 1: thing a guy and normally complains about. But it was
- 18:05Speaker 1: it was just, you know, it was a little weird.
- 18:06Speaker 3: In it's still if you're not it.
- 18:09Speaker 1: Yeah, I was like, oh, I should have watched the
- 18:12Speaker 1: other one on vimeo.
- 18:16Speaker 2: Yeah, but uh yeah.
- 18:18Speaker 1: But I eventually stayed, Uh did a couple of initiations,
- 18:23Speaker 1: met a few good people, some that I still actually
- 18:26Speaker 1: keep in contact with. Uh yeah, I mean I had
- 18:29Speaker 1: my own eventually, you know, and I just you know,
- 18:31Speaker 1: eventually COVID came and that.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Was just a huge, horrible, big issue.
- 18:35Speaker 1: So I mean, eventually I just kind of left anyway,
- 18:37Speaker 1: I don't know if I want to get into that
- 18:39Speaker 1: or not put and I could be as nice as
- 18:40Speaker 1: possible about it, but I just didn't feel like it
- 18:43Speaker 1: was really a place for me that much anymore. It
- 18:46Speaker 1: is the situation. It was like, well, you're not even open,
- 18:48Speaker 1: so what the fu point? I eventually just stopped going
- 18:52Speaker 1: and just kind of went off on my own with
- 18:55Speaker 1: my own experiences that I started to have. I mean,
- 18:58Speaker 1: I I do, I do make the claim and I
- 19:01Speaker 1: do believe that I have crossed to the abyss. So
- 19:04Speaker 1: at that point, I was just like, what do I
- 19:06Speaker 1: need to go back there for anyway?
- 19:07Speaker 2: Like that happened?
- 19:08Speaker 1: Why I wasn't going there because for a while, because
- 19:10Speaker 1: of COVID are just not being interested in that place
- 19:12Speaker 1: as much, I wasn't going, and I was doing a
- 19:14Speaker 1: lot more stuff at home, a shadow work, rituals, theorgy,
- 19:19Speaker 1: and I eventually had my own experience and that kind
- 19:23Speaker 1: of was just like I don't know how to say
- 19:25Speaker 1: this without it like I don't want it to come
- 19:28Speaker 1: out the wrong way, because again there was really you know,
- 19:31Speaker 1: the people there are really good people and they're just
- 19:33Speaker 1: looking for something and most of them are nerds, but
- 19:36Speaker 1: I feel like some of these organizations unfortunately kind of
- 19:40Speaker 1: hand you or give you the image of the vices
- 19:41Speaker 1: and not the virtues. And I just felt for myself
- 19:45Speaker 1: at that time. I just didn't see that place offering
- 19:49Speaker 1: me anything that much anymore.
- 19:51Speaker 2: So I left.
- 19:53Speaker 1: That's well, and I'll still talk to people from there,
- 19:56Speaker 1: have people on my show that are associated with that place,
- 19:58Speaker 1: so it's just for.
- 19:59Speaker 2: Me m hm.
- 20:01Speaker 1: So but yeah, uh, And I will say I'm very
- 20:05Speaker 1: glad that that experience happened because I know who I am,
- 20:10Speaker 1: what I want and what I don't want now, So
- 20:13Speaker 1: you know, it was all it's all learning, It was
- 20:15Speaker 1: all it all needed to happen, in my opinion, for
- 20:17Speaker 1: me to be who I am today.
- 20:19Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sure you learned a lot from the process.
- 20:21Speaker 3: It doesn't happen to Yeah, you know, it doesn't have to.
- 20:23Speaker 3: You don't have to be a part of something for
- 20:24Speaker 3: forever for it to be meaningful and impactful. And I
- 20:27Speaker 3: think that it's an important skill to learn when something
- 20:30Speaker 3: isn't right for you anymore.
- 20:32Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Yeah, definitely people there that I will never
- 20:36Speaker 1: forget that I have definitely like left an impact in
- 20:38Speaker 1: my life.
- 20:39Speaker 3: Yeah, especially if you saw titties for the person You're like, Okay,
- 20:43Speaker 3: this is an impact for sure.
- 20:45Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 20:46Speaker 3: Do you do you still find ways of finding community
- 20:49Speaker 3: now or do you miss having communities like a soler
- 20:52Speaker 3: practitionering you prefer that you.
- 20:54Speaker 2: Know what that has changed over time? Uh? When I
- 21:00Speaker 2: first left, I don't. I think I was.
- 21:04Speaker 1: I had misdirected anger and or resentment, and I kind
- 21:13Speaker 1: of like put myself away from like not just the
- 21:16Speaker 1: OTO but like old magical community and it kind of
- 21:20Speaker 1: just like started, you know, podcasting, And due to that,
- 21:25Speaker 1: I kind of tried to start off in the conspiracy
- 21:28Speaker 1: community first, wanting to like decode and like you know,
- 21:33Speaker 1: from my experience, this is one thing I'll say, from
- 21:36Speaker 1: my experience with crossing the Abyss, I feel like that
- 21:40Speaker 1: is the only time I actually understood what my true
- 21:42Speaker 1: will is.
- 21:43Speaker 2: I do believe this.
- 21:44Speaker 1: May sound corny to come from an occultist, but I
- 21:46Speaker 1: do believe I actually have a mission from God or
- 21:49Speaker 1: I have a purpose. My purpose is to help people
- 21:52Speaker 1: understand the occult and know that it's not old just
- 21:54Speaker 1: Dixon demons, that there's science in there and it can
- 21:57Speaker 1: actually bring you to have an experience with God and
- 22:00Speaker 1: change you for better, and that's what I want to do.
- 22:05Speaker 1: So I kind of tried to do that in the
- 22:07Speaker 1: occult community. The conspiracy community first, uh to you know,
- 22:12Speaker 1: because it's very extremely like demonized the occult. I mean
- 22:19Speaker 1: everything is blamed on fucking al Stacroley and John de Satanic,
- 22:23Speaker 1: everything's molesting kids, you know, it's just you know, they
- 22:26Speaker 1: have I'll be totally honest with you, people in the
- 22:29Speaker 1: conspiracy community actually probably think about six Ship in their
- 22:33Speaker 1: head more than the fucking worst the cultist. Do they
- 22:36Speaker 1: obsess over everybody doing this stuff that it's all they
- 22:38Speaker 1: think about.
- 22:40Speaker 3: That's an interesting point.
- 22:41Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean put it this way, and I will.
- 22:44Speaker 1: There's people that I'm actually close to that I may
- 22:47Speaker 1: not like you their style. But if you're going to
- 22:50Speaker 1: talk about Alista Crowley and Michael Aquino all day, and
- 22:55Speaker 1: you're going to talk about these supposed horrific things that
- 22:58Speaker 1: they did, if those aren't true, you're actually painting pictures
- 23:04Speaker 1: in people's heads of some horrific shit for no reason.
- 23:08Speaker 1: You are actually fucking worse than those men. You're putting
- 23:13Speaker 1: horrid ideas in people's heads that aren't even real. Because
- 23:17Speaker 1: you want money and clicks. That's sick, that's black magic,
- 23:24Speaker 1: you know. But uh so I wanted to try to
- 23:27Speaker 1: change a little bit of that and lighten it up.
- 23:30Speaker 2: And I do think it has helped, at least in
- 23:32Speaker 2: the area that I am.
- 23:33Speaker 1: And I mean there's a different clicks in different groups
- 23:35Speaker 1: and circles within the occult and conspiracy community, but I
- 23:40Speaker 1: have definitely impacted a decent amount of people and to
- 23:45Speaker 1: the point to where I started feeling more comfortable.
- 23:51Speaker 2: Even within the time of me having.
- 23:53Speaker 1: That magical experience in starting my podcast, I may not
- 23:55Speaker 1: have been so much inte ritual stuff, but I have
- 23:57Speaker 1: continued to study, you know, especially Cabbala and you know,
- 24:02Speaker 1: looking at people from the fifteen sixteen hundreds, twelve hundreds
- 24:05Speaker 1: that empedoicles's even older, you know, the BC, looking at
- 24:09Speaker 1: what they're looking at and studying and try to get
- 24:11Speaker 1: into that, which is another reason why I do get
- 24:13Speaker 1: into physiology a lot, because why these people looking at
- 24:16Speaker 1: the brain, the nervous system, and the eyeballs.
- 24:18Speaker 2: That's the reason for it.
- 24:20Speaker 1: I started getting into that and studying that a lot,
- 24:22Speaker 1: and eventually I felt more comfortable enough to even show
- 24:25Speaker 1: up more in the occult community and say I actually
- 24:27Speaker 1: think I have something to say that you should listen to.
- 24:30Speaker 1: You know, if a conspiracy theorists, I thought it was
- 24:31Speaker 1: a little bit easier because they have zero fucking clue
- 24:34Speaker 1: half the time what they're talking about. So I figured
- 24:36Speaker 1: I just got to say a few words that they
- 24:38Speaker 1: don't even understand them.
- 24:39Speaker 2: They'll think I'm smart. It's not like manshole.
- 24:42Speaker 1: I get to say a couple of spools off the
- 24:44Speaker 1: cabbalistic train, They'll be like, what the fuck was that?
- 24:46Speaker 2: You know, They'll be like, oh, this Scot's stromp, the
- 24:48Speaker 2: Scot's s proke over gas.
- 24:50Speaker 3: You know.
- 24:53Speaker 1: No, I've literally had people on my show like I
- 24:55Speaker 1: have so many co hosts, or I used to that,
- 24:57Speaker 1: like there was one or two people who were not
- 24:59Speaker 1: into this, and I had me and one of my
- 25:01Speaker 1: co hosts on that r and we got to do
- 25:02Speaker 1: it all for the Croatia, and the whole time we
- 25:04Speaker 1: were talking insane shit. The other two people had nothing
- 25:07Speaker 1: to say because they literally had no idea what I
- 25:09Speaker 1: was saying. Yeah, So eventually, again I felt more comfortable
- 25:16Speaker 1: being myself, or you know, I was a little bit
- 25:18Speaker 1: more educated in the field of the occult. So I
- 25:21Speaker 1: was like, you know what, I that and it just
- 25:25Speaker 1: I just I felt like that I was covering the
- 25:27Speaker 1: occult enough to where I could start really segueing into
- 25:30Speaker 1: that community, which I've really only been doing like.
- 25:33Speaker 2: The last year, tell you the truth, the last eight months.
- 25:37Speaker 1: So it's like even that's you know, meeting you and
- 25:39Speaker 1: Ivy is like kind of fairly you know, new for
- 25:41Speaker 1: this whole thing. But yeah, so I started feeling a
- 25:45Speaker 1: little bit more confident in that, and uh, kind of
- 25:49Speaker 1: since then, I mean, it's kind of been like full
- 25:51Speaker 1: steam ahead. I mean a lot of the people on
- 25:52Speaker 1: the show, I mean, we're all at this point now
- 25:55Speaker 1: everybody on the show is actually practicing people. We all practice.
- 26:00Speaker 1: We all have our own different beliefs too. We don't
- 26:03Speaker 1: all follow the same pantheons. We don't all talk about
- 26:06Speaker 1: the same gods. There's people on my show that the physiology,
- 26:09Speaker 1: the eyeballs in the brain not even a thought of theirs.
- 26:12Speaker 1: I mean, they find what I say is interesting, but
- 26:14Speaker 1: that's not what they spend time on.
- 26:16Speaker 2: They may want to spend time on the gods, you know,
- 26:18Speaker 2: or other things or alchemy. You know.
- 26:20Speaker 1: One of my guys on my show is doing an
- 26:22Speaker 1: alchemy show. Now every Monday, the guys are doing something.
- 26:25Speaker 1: I'm waiting for them to love themselves up at one point,
- 26:28Speaker 1: Like another guy on my show, he's into Buddhism. You
- 26:31Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like, we all have all our
- 26:33Speaker 1: different areas, and between all of us, I think that
- 26:37Speaker 1: we actually can provide a very comprehensive look at the
- 26:41Speaker 1: topics that we do. One of the ways I try
- 26:44Speaker 1: to like make a joke about it. Two ways wu
- 26:47Speaker 1: tang with the occult of conspiracies where you have everybody's
- 26:50Speaker 1: that's got their own thing to add and we just
- 26:52Speaker 1: put it together and you get one bad ass track
- 26:54Speaker 1: or Crowley's seven to seven seven. How you have all
- 26:57Speaker 1: the different associations in there of a way to look
- 27:00Speaker 1: at that, I'll have this person is into the Greek Pantheon,
- 27:03Speaker 1: me into the Egyptian my friend who was into the Buddhism. Well,
- 27:05Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, You're starting to get all
- 27:07Speaker 1: the associations that way, So you have different ways of
- 27:09Speaker 1: looking at it, you know, because I do believe in
- 27:12Speaker 1: the past, like when I was mentioning with these older people,
- 27:14Speaker 1: they were all polymaths, you know, our school system isn't
- 27:18Speaker 1: even designed.
- 27:19Speaker 2: For us to be polymaths anymore.
- 27:21Speaker 1: We're screwed because these polymaths, besides the occult again, they're
- 27:25Speaker 1: adding music into it. The music of the spheres. I mean,
- 27:28Speaker 1: you know that was huge again, the eyeballs, the brain,
- 27:33Speaker 1: the nervous system. I mean, I think you know Saint Hildegarde,
- 27:39Speaker 1: you know, unfortunately Catholic Church. She was a saint, but
- 27:41Speaker 1: she was also an alchemist. If it wasn't for her,
- 27:45Speaker 1: iron may to not be here because she invented harmonizing.
- 27:49Speaker 1: She had women singing for her, and she noticed if
- 27:51Speaker 1: you took one chick ladies on this side and one
- 27:53Speaker 1: lady's on this side and changed the octave, you.
- 27:55Speaker 2: Were like, wow, this sounds amazing.
- 27:58Speaker 1: You know, these people and handed us the world that
- 28:01Speaker 1: we're living in now. And uh, I forgot where I.
- 28:05Speaker 2: Was going with that.
- 28:06Speaker 3: So you still consider yourself that delimite, right?
- 28:10Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean unfortunately.
- 28:14Speaker 3: I asked Lin that too, and that was kind of
- 28:15Speaker 3: a similar answer.
- 28:16Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 28:17Speaker 2: Well, yo, what I'm gonna keep it real right now.
- 28:20Speaker 1: And this this may even this may even wrestle some feathers,
- 28:24Speaker 1: but it is what it is.
- 28:25Speaker 2: Uh.
- 28:26Speaker 1: Again, I look at the occult, you know, from a
- 28:29Speaker 1: lot of angles, but I am more my opinion, there's
- 28:33Speaker 1: a lot of symbolism in a cult, in the occult
- 28:36Speaker 1: that references the eyeballs in the brain. I try to
- 28:40Speaker 1: look at it that way. I do believe Alista Crowley
- 28:44Speaker 1: was doing the same thing. A lot of people in
- 28:47Speaker 1: the organization, for some reason, would rather that guy be
- 28:51Speaker 1: known as some drug addict sex fiend than being intelligent.
- 28:57Speaker 2: I don't get that.
- 28:58Speaker 1: You your order or he has a bad name, and
- 29:01Speaker 1: you resist on making this guy actually seem smart. To
- 29:04Speaker 1: where they and any tell the mine I talk to you,
- 29:06Speaker 1: they think I'm fucking crazy, and it's like, yo, I'm sorry,
- 29:10Speaker 1: I actually want to give your fucking god that you
- 29:12Speaker 1: all put up on a pedestal actually saying that he
- 29:14Speaker 1: might have been saying something really fucking intelligent, and you
- 29:17Speaker 1: don't want to give the guy credit. So I mean,
- 29:20Speaker 1: the fact of just the way the organizations looked at
- 29:23Speaker 1: and the way that people in the organization seem to
- 29:25Speaker 1: want this guy to be continuously looked at. It's almost
- 29:27Speaker 1: embarrassing to say you're a part of it. Which maybe
- 29:30Speaker 1: that's why Lynn. I don't know why her situation is.
- 29:33Speaker 1: But for me, it's due to the way society looks
- 29:37Speaker 1: at that organization and due to the people in that
- 29:39Speaker 1: organization that want to keep it looking screwed up for
- 29:41Speaker 1: some fucking silly reason. It's uncomfortable to say that, yes,
- 29:44Speaker 1: I am a fellow mine. I do think Alista Crowley
- 29:47Speaker 1: was onto something. I could care less what he did
- 29:49Speaker 1: in his personal life. I don't care who sucked his
- 29:51Speaker 1: dick or who he fucked. I don't care. I want
- 29:54Speaker 1: to know what the hell that guy was doing with
- 29:55Speaker 1: the occult, because I think he was a genius when
- 29:57Speaker 1: he came to it. I've looked at his papers in Austin, Texas.
- 30:03Speaker 1: The Voice of the Vision, when you see the amount
- 30:05Speaker 1: of jamatria that guy was doing, his shit is ciphered.
- 30:08Speaker 2: This guy was saying a lot of stuff.
- 30:11Speaker 1: People don't even want to give him that credit that much,
- 30:13Speaker 1: even in the order when you look at him putting
- 30:17Speaker 1: rose on the side and doing the math for it,
- 30:19Speaker 1: because he's sticking it inside his book. He's not talking
- 30:21Speaker 1: about his girlfriend anymore. I hate to tell you, bro,
- 30:25Speaker 1: he's doing something else in there, you know. And uh,
- 30:30Speaker 1: That's why I will consider myself a film at in
- 30:32Speaker 1: the census, because I do think whatever he was doing
- 30:34Speaker 1: in the occult, that man was onto something. And I'm
- 30:36Speaker 1: interested in what the fuck he was saying.
- 30:39Speaker 3: I'm interested in your opinion where like and.
- 30:43Speaker 2: I went real quick, I know it's just screwed up.
- 30:45Speaker 2: I messed up. It is not that I'm trying to
- 30:47Speaker 2: say this guy was better, but I think.
- 30:50Speaker 1: I at least want to give the guy a little
- 30:52Speaker 1: bit better of an image saying this dude wasn't saying
- 30:54Speaker 1: fucking babble.
- 30:57Speaker 2: He was saying something deep. He wasn't just a degenerate pervert.
- 31:02Speaker 1: He put that shit in ciphers, so you get disgusted
- 31:04Speaker 1: and don't even look at it. Only the people who
- 31:09Speaker 1: don't fear will find what he'll be saying.
- 31:16Speaker 3: HM. My next question for you is why do you
- 31:21Speaker 3: think that? Because now I'm having back to back episodes
- 31:25Speaker 3: with people who are a little bit disenchanted with the OTO.
- 31:30Speaker 3: I'm curious about your opinion and why you think that is, Like,
- 31:33Speaker 3: why there's something happening here at least like from my
- 31:37Speaker 3: experience the people I've talked to.
- 31:43Speaker 2: I don't know. I want to try to answer this.
- 31:44Speaker 2: I think, like, in the nicest way, and.
- 31:48Speaker 3: You don't have to answer it if you don't want to.
- 31:49Speaker 1: Oh, no, I want to UH one I will take
- 31:52Speaker 1: I can't say that quote exactly, but quote crally in
- 31:56Speaker 1: one way. And I think this is an issue with
- 31:58Speaker 1: the OTOH. It confusing sympathy for empathy. Well, people being
- 32:06Speaker 1: sympathetic instead of empathetic. It's going to fucking ruin humanity.
- 32:11Speaker 2: That order.
- 32:13Speaker 1: I seem to want to focus more on I think
- 32:19Speaker 1: feelings and other people than actually what magic is. I
- 32:28Speaker 1: don't know any other way to say it without starting
- 32:30Speaker 1: to get too uh detailed.
- 32:33Speaker 3: I don't think I understand what is? What is? What is?
- 32:36Speaker 2: The uh? All right?
- 32:40Speaker 1: Just like the AA, the O t O shouldn't be
- 32:44Speaker 1: actually worried about anything outside of that organization. So my opinion,
- 32:49Speaker 1: you should not be sending me a zoom meeting to
- 32:50Speaker 1: talk about George Floyd situation. Why is that a zoom
- 32:55Speaker 1: meeting for the ot O. Why are we talking about
- 32:58Speaker 1: racism and Antifa that has nothing to do.
- 33:01Speaker 2: To the OTO.
- 33:03Speaker 1: That man, whatever happened, I'm just keeping it real, regardless
- 33:09Speaker 1: of what you saw was even real, instead of Nazi magic.
- 33:15Speaker 1: UH doesn't affect my will unfortunately, but I would.
- 33:22Speaker 3: Argue, it doesn't affect you because you're a white man.
- 33:28Speaker 1: If I was black, it still would affect me because
- 33:29Speaker 1: I was the one on the floor.
- 33:32Speaker 3: What do you mean.
- 33:34Speaker 2: That didn't happen to me?
- 33:37Speaker 3: So when other people get hurt, it doesn't it doesn't
- 33:40Speaker 3: affect you.
- 33:42Speaker 2: No, it can. But to the point to where I'm
- 33:43Speaker 2: gonna forget myself.
- 33:45Speaker 3: No, you don't think that you can both stand up
- 33:50Speaker 3: for other people and all.
- 33:51Speaker 1: See again, Oh yeah you can, Yeah, for sure. I'm
- 33:54Speaker 1: gonna now for myself for a cult this, But I'm not.
- 33:57Speaker 2: It's just uh. I'll put it this way.
- 34:02Speaker 1: If when I was there they started talking about the
- 34:04Speaker 1: Soldier Boys, I would.
- 34:05Speaker 2: Have told them to shut the fuck up.
- 34:08Speaker 3: I don't know what that is.
- 34:09Speaker 2: Well, that's a right wing group.
- 34:11Speaker 1: I don't want to hear politics in a fucking place
- 34:13Speaker 1: that's supposed to be about magic, because all that's going
- 34:15Speaker 1: to do is create division, division, and all this does,
- 34:20Speaker 1: all politics does is create division and hate. If you're
- 34:24Speaker 1: an actual magician, you should realize this fucking shit slavery.
- 34:27Speaker 2: Why am I paying attention to it?
- 34:29Speaker 1: M You don't think that that make people act crazy.
- 34:39Speaker 3: I think that it makes people act crazy because change
- 34:42Speaker 3: needs to happen, and to think that the politics don't
- 34:45Speaker 3: affect your magic sphere, your rights in general, Like it
- 34:50Speaker 3: might start off with something that feels disconnected from you,
- 34:53Speaker 3: but eventually they will come after you. It is it
- 34:55Speaker 3: is civil rights. At some point it will affect your right.
- 35:00Speaker 3: So caring about other people in the end will also
- 35:04Speaker 3: protect you and protect your rights. Because if black people
- 35:07Speaker 3: do not have the freedoms that they need, if Mexican
- 35:10Speaker 3: Americans are don't have a breads but they need your next.
- 35:13Speaker 1: Yes, but the whole thing that's an organization that's supposed
- 35:16Speaker 1: to be about magic. Why am I hearing about other things?
- 35:18Speaker 1: It could have been fucking anything else. Honestly, I also
- 35:22Speaker 1: didn't agree that. I mean, the church's doors are open,
- 35:25Speaker 1: and Horace is too scared. Why is the place closed
- 35:28Speaker 1: because of COVID The churches are open. I didn't agree
- 35:30Speaker 1: with that either. I thought that was a little silly yo.
- 35:33Speaker 1: And then to tell us that ninety three percent of
- 35:35Speaker 1: the people voted that they are not comfortable going there
- 35:38Speaker 1: being vaccinated.
- 35:39Speaker 2: When I can tell you me.
- 35:40Speaker 1: Jason, Jordan, Michael, and probably about five other people never
- 35:44Speaker 1: got that survey, So how did you get ninety three percent,
- 35:49Speaker 1: which sounds cute for the OTO. Sure to tell everybody
- 35:53Speaker 1: that now you can't even come in unless you get jabbed.
- 35:55Speaker 2: Fuck you.
- 35:58Speaker 1: I'm supposed to be a magician, yet I'm going to
- 36:00Speaker 1: be under someone's thumb.
- 36:01Speaker 2: Who you fucking crazy?
- 36:04Speaker 3: I hear what you're saying. I just think I just
- 36:06Speaker 3: won't go.
- 36:06Speaker 1: If people are scared, then I'll just stay home and
- 36:08Speaker 1: practice on my own.
- 36:10Speaker 3: I just think that you are separating things that aren't
- 36:12Speaker 3: necessarily separated, like these things do affect each other. And
- 36:16Speaker 3: I get what you're saying, right, you're there for magic.
- 36:18Speaker 3: You don't necessarily want to hear someone's personal opinion. I
- 36:21Speaker 3: get that, I totally do. But I don't think that
- 36:23Speaker 3: you can exist in a sphere where politics don't affect
- 36:26Speaker 3: you and affect your rights, like especially nowadays, like the
- 36:30Speaker 3: politics are infringing on people's rights every single day, and
- 36:33Speaker 3: that will come for your ability to practice magic at
- 36:36Speaker 3: some point. But you know there's other steps to get there.
- 36:41Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, doing that in a jail, so it
- 36:42Speaker 1: would probably suck. But I mean I could practice magic
- 36:46Speaker 1: just by closing my eyes. That's all I have to do.
- 36:48Speaker 3: Yeah, But you you don't want you don't want rights
- 36:51Speaker 3: for yourself, you don't want freedom for yourself.
- 36:53Speaker 2: No, yeah, it again. I just don't understand why.
- 36:57Speaker 1: I'm just saying it's an organization that's not supposed to
- 36:59Speaker 1: be to looking about that is, and it just was
- 37:02Speaker 1: weird and uncomfortable.
- 37:03Speaker 2: Again, they could have been fall right.
- 37:04Speaker 1: Now I would actually feel more comfortable tell them to
- 37:07Speaker 1: go suck a dick if they were fall right, tell
- 37:09Speaker 1: you the truth.
- 37:10Speaker 2: Neither one I want to hear about.
- 37:13Speaker 3: Why would you feel more comfortable telling them it's like
- 37:15Speaker 3: a dick about if they were far right though, because
- 37:17Speaker 3: you disagree with.
- 37:18Speaker 2: Well, if I tell somebody on yeah, actually have course,
- 37:20Speaker 2: I do sick. I mean, it's just shit. I'm Nazis
- 37:23Speaker 2: all the time on my show.
- 37:25Speaker 3: Sure, yes, it's a good thing to do. But I
- 37:28Speaker 3: just feel like you're saying there shouldn't be politics. But
- 37:30Speaker 3: then you have double standards when it comes to politics.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Oh no, I should on both sides.
- 37:37Speaker 1: Yeah, I will show the way both sides mentally manipulate
- 37:41Speaker 1: us to get us into conversations like this. Now.
- 37:43Speaker 3: Well, I mean I don't think that we're separated. I
- 37:46Speaker 3: think I'm just having a conversation with you because I'm
- 37:48Speaker 3: interested genuinely understanding your point of view. Like I think
- 37:52Speaker 3: it's I think it's very interesting when people try to
- 37:54Speaker 3: separate magic from politics. I think that like they affect
- 37:57Speaker 3: each other, whether we like it or not, and we
- 37:59Speaker 3: can pretend like they because it's kind of convenient, But
- 38:01Speaker 3: ultimately we live in a country where, like it affects
- 38:05Speaker 3: her every day, it affects our lives. And I would
- 38:08Speaker 3: love separation of church and state. I would absolutely love that,
- 38:12Speaker 3: but unfortunately that's just not our existence. But I agree
- 38:16Speaker 3: with you. I do think that, Like, I mean, put.
- 38:18Speaker 1: It this way, since Trump got elected again, I haven't
- 38:21Speaker 1: paid attention to the fucking news, and I ain't seem
- 38:23Speaker 1: pretty happy, and I don't feel oppressed.
- 38:27Speaker 3: You don't feel oppressed, No, I mean, I have.
- 38:29Speaker 1: No idea what the fucking retod's doing, and I feel
- 38:32Speaker 1: totally fine. I don't pay attention to the news anymore.
- 38:34Speaker 1: It's cancer.
- 38:35Speaker 3: Well, I think that the reason you don't feel affected
- 38:37Speaker 3: is because you're a white male. I feel affected.
- 38:40Speaker 2: And even when Biden was in what was so horrible
- 38:44Speaker 2: that happened to all of us? Nothing? Well, the shit
- 38:46Speaker 2: the right was saying that was gonna happen. Nothing happened.
- 38:49Speaker 2: It's all fucking propaganda.
- 38:51Speaker 3: Well, I think that the fact that, like there are
- 38:55Speaker 3: Mexican Americans being taken from their homes that they lived
- 38:58Speaker 3: in for years, that does affect my life in a
- 39:04Speaker 3: very active, real way as someone who is very I'm
- 39:07Speaker 3: not Mexican American myself, as someone who's very close to
- 39:10Speaker 3: the Mexican American community. Yeah, there are things that are
- 39:13Speaker 3: definitely affecting my life, and I feel like it doesn't
- 39:15Speaker 3: It doesn't affect you because of your position and who
- 39:17Speaker 3: you are.
- 39:18Speaker 2: I paid attention to it would piss me off. I
- 39:20Speaker 2: don't want to know what the shit he's doing.
- 39:21Speaker 1: I think he's a fucking psycho, and that's why I
- 39:23Speaker 1: don't pay attention to his sick because then I'll get triggered.
- 39:26Speaker 1: I'll be worrying about what he's doing instead of writing
- 39:28Speaker 1: a show for myself.
- 39:29Speaker 3: Yeah, I definitely understand, But I also think that that's
- 39:32Speaker 3: a privilege to disconnect and be able to be fine.
- 39:36Speaker 3: But I don't blame you for I think it's very
- 39:38Speaker 3: natural to want to focus on the things that you
- 39:41Speaker 3: can control, and I think a lot of times that
- 39:43Speaker 3: is an active self preservation, which is important.
- 39:45Speaker 1: I mean, the guy's rolling pre crime in I should
- 39:48Speaker 1: be freaking the fuck out, and I'm not. I'm going
- 39:50Speaker 1: to focus on my work.
- 39:51Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, And eventually it'll affect your work. It will
- 39:55Speaker 3: affect your ability to speak about your work. So I
- 39:58Speaker 3: don't know, probably hopefully not. I hope I'm wrong, you know,
- 40:02Speaker 3: I because I have really big plans for my work too,
- 40:05Speaker 3: and I really really hope that no one ever takes
- 40:07Speaker 3: away my ability to share my work and to share
- 40:10Speaker 3: my point of view. So I agree with you in
- 40:13Speaker 3: a lot of ways. I also just want to challenge
- 40:15Speaker 3: a couple of things that you said from my own
- 40:17Speaker 3: personal point of view, especially as someone who is a
- 40:20Speaker 3: minority within a minority.
- 40:23Speaker 2: Gotcha.
- 40:26Speaker 3: So, now that you've stepped away from you know or
- 40:31Speaker 3: organized the OTO, do you and going circling back to
- 40:36Speaker 3: the conversation about community, do you find community within your podcast?
- 40:41Speaker 3: Like or do you do you think that community is
- 40:44Speaker 3: important to you?
- 40:46Speaker 2: Oh?
- 40:46Speaker 1: Yeah, well keep you know what I mean some people yeah,
- 40:52Speaker 1: uh and in person and I just want to screen
- 40:58Speaker 1: yeah uh yeah, no, it definitely helps. There is a
- 41:02Speaker 1: community amongst me and the people on the show. I
- 41:05Speaker 1: mean there's for the most part the people that I
- 41:08Speaker 1: podcast with. Now, The Cold Rejects has been out for
- 41:10Speaker 1: about five years. I had a different co host for
- 41:13Speaker 1: about the first year and a half and then kind
- 41:18Speaker 1: of went off on my own, but brought people on
- 41:21Speaker 1: to cover topics with. I started kind of just revolving
- 41:24Speaker 1: certain people that I was like, oh, I worked well
- 41:26Speaker 1: with this guy, you seem cool. And then eventually I
- 41:29Speaker 1: just started keeping them on and then found some more
- 41:32Speaker 1: people and then you know, kind of we kind of
- 41:34Speaker 1: made it. It was always the Occult Rejects, but you know,
- 41:37Speaker 1: now it actually really is rejects.
- 41:39Speaker 2: Like you know, it's a bunch of us. But uh,
- 41:42Speaker 2: I forgot where it was going with this again. Oh yeah,
- 41:43Speaker 2: the community.
- 41:44Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of these people, now what I'm getting out,
- 41:47Speaker 1: I've been working with for like three and a half years,
- 41:49Speaker 1: three years, you know, consistently. You know, my friend Jim
- 41:53Speaker 1: the Ninja, the Headless Giant, Teresa from the Spiritual Gangsters,
- 41:58Speaker 1: you know, and they all have different backgrounds. I mean,
- 42:00Speaker 1: we even have a Catholic that comes on the show
- 42:01Speaker 1: sometimes and she could totally kick it with the occultism
- 42:03Speaker 1: and adds her two cents into fit the topic. So yeah,
- 42:10Speaker 1: I definitely have you know, a lot of good friends
- 42:12Speaker 1: that I've made podcasting, like I have even told you
- 42:17Speaker 1: though unfortunately it is probably not the place you really
- 42:21Speaker 1: think it is when you first get into it. So,
- 42:24Speaker 1: you know, people who I thought I might have been
- 42:26Speaker 1: cool with at the beginning, you know, maybe they were
- 42:28Speaker 1: really weren't too authentic. But I do think I have
- 42:30Speaker 1: actually found some like real real friends people I've met
- 42:33Speaker 1: personally too now from the show. And then there's people
- 42:37Speaker 1: that I do know personally from like events and stuff
- 42:40Speaker 1: that I have gone to that I can consider, you know,
- 42:43Speaker 1: part of the community. You know, for sure, I will
- 42:47Speaker 1: put it this way. The people that I consider friends
- 42:51Speaker 1: in my life now either do you know, really more
- 42:55Speaker 1: than likely from the podcast, whether it's in person or
- 42:58Speaker 1: over the phone or on the screen, by far much
- 43:02Speaker 1: better friends and more fulfilling than it was.
- 43:06Speaker 2: Brier. You know these people you're like some people on
- 43:10Speaker 2: the show.
- 43:11Speaker 1: I guess you don't realize, like we're not trying to
- 43:14Speaker 1: impress people and you're actually being in yourself and those
- 43:16Speaker 1: people accept you like that, like that's a real friend,
- 43:20Speaker 1: you know, and like a lot of us have old
- 43:22Speaker 1: mom then on the show, Like we really weren't trying to.
- 43:25Speaker 1: You know, maybe at first are trying to impress me
- 43:26Speaker 1: because like, oh my god, he's gonna come on the show.
- 43:28Speaker 1: But you know, eventually, like you know, you start to
- 43:31Speaker 1: you know, become real with people, and uh, we've all
- 43:34Speaker 1: accepted each other for that, and a lot of us
- 43:35Speaker 1: don't think all the same either, you know, and we're
- 43:38Speaker 1: all like really really close.
- 43:43Speaker 3: I think that's wonderful. You've been able to create your
- 43:45Speaker 3: own community, and I hear you because you and I
- 43:48Speaker 3: have had personal conversations about the kind of content creation space,
- 43:52Speaker 3: and I feel like podcast falls underneath that not being
- 43:55Speaker 3: quite what you think it is, especially within like certain sectors.
- 43:58Speaker 3: And but I feel like in order to find those
- 44:01Speaker 3: really amazing people who are like life changing and to
- 44:03Speaker 3: build your community, sometimes you've got to filter through some bullshit.
- 44:07Speaker 3: You know, not everyone you meet is going to be
- 44:09Speaker 3: right for you, and sometimes that lesson might be a
- 44:12Speaker 3: lot harder. And sometimes you might immediately meet somebody and
- 44:14Speaker 3: be like, yeah, that person's not for me, and then
- 44:16Speaker 3: sometimes you might it might take you some more time,
- 44:18Speaker 3: but eventually, you know, and I feel like that's kind
- 44:21Speaker 3: of been my I mean, I'm very niche the content
- 44:24Speaker 3: creation space, but that's already been my experiences. Some people
- 44:27Speaker 3: I meet are I realized almost immediately they're not for me.
- 44:31Speaker 3: And then I've also met some really really incredibly like
- 44:35Speaker 3: life changing friends at the same time, and I have
- 44:38Speaker 3: a lot of gratitude for that. But it also comes
- 44:40Speaker 3: with a price as well, and I think that that's
- 44:42Speaker 3: just friendship and community in general. It's like it's it's
- 44:46Speaker 3: it's worth it, but there's sometimes a really heavy price
- 44:48Speaker 3: to pay.
- 44:50Speaker 2: Oh you wants another thing too that I do would
- 44:52Speaker 2: even mention.
- 44:52Speaker 1: It's not like I'm trying to put myself on the
- 44:54Speaker 1: back yet, but like I think like half of the show,
- 44:56Speaker 1: if not even more than half of it, they were
- 44:59Speaker 1: all fans first, and I just had them on as
- 45:02Speaker 1: a guest, tried them for a topic, and now they
- 45:05Speaker 1: all have their own shows too, So I mean they
- 45:10Speaker 1: even put off as fans, and like it's just amazing
- 45:12Speaker 1: to see, Like what I'm getting at is not a
- 45:15Speaker 1: lot of podcasters.
- 45:16Speaker 2: Will even entertain them. Yeah, big names.
- 45:19Speaker 1: I was like, there are so many people that don't
- 45:22Speaker 1: have a name that are into this stuff, that have.
- 45:24Speaker 2: So much to say.
- 45:25Speaker 3: Yeah, I would totally.
- 45:27Speaker 1: Just because they're not popular doesn't mean they aren't intelligent.
- 45:30Speaker 1: And I try to look for that, and you know,
- 45:32Speaker 1: doing that, I've met some really amazing people.
- 45:36Speaker 3: First of all, I think that you're allowed to pat
- 45:38Speaker 3: yourself on the back for that. I think that giving
- 45:40Speaker 3: other people a platform and lifting up other people is
- 45:42Speaker 3: something to be very proud of. And if anyone makes
- 45:45Speaker 3: you feel weird about that, they can get fucked.
- 45:47Speaker 2: Yeah all.
- 45:48Speaker 3: You know, like I've experienced that a lot, so justin
- 45:51Speaker 3: which an enchantment is like very publicly. My friend and
- 45:55Speaker 3: when I first came into the content creation space and
- 45:57Speaker 3: I was talking to him about starting it, he said
- 46:00Speaker 3: to me, he was like, sweetie, there's room here for
- 46:02Speaker 3: all of us to be successful. And he like brought
- 46:04Speaker 3: me on his show before I ever started my channel.
- 46:06Speaker 3: I did like a live lecture on there. I actually
- 46:09Speaker 3: he opened up his discord for me. I have a
- 46:11Speaker 3: channel in his discord solely for me, because I don't
- 46:13Speaker 3: have a discord, Like, oh, that's the beginning from the beginning.
- 46:17Speaker 3: And you know, we had just we have known each
- 46:19Speaker 3: other for a minute, but we became really close over
- 46:20Speaker 3: the summer, and so he barely knew me and was
- 46:23Speaker 3: like just like he was like, however, I can help
- 46:26Speaker 3: you be successful. I'll be successful and like people like
- 46:28Speaker 3: him are like you who are willing to doesn't matter
- 46:32Speaker 3: who you are, like you still see people and want
- 46:34Speaker 3: to like build them up. I think it's like such
- 46:36Speaker 3: a necessary part. And I agree with him. There's so
- 46:39Speaker 3: many people out there. This is this doesn't need to
- 46:42Speaker 3: be a competitive space, Like there's really room for all
- 46:45Speaker 3: of us to win, and all of us have an
- 46:46Speaker 3: interesting viewpoint. So it makes me sad sometimes when I
- 46:50Speaker 3: do reach when I do meet people who are really competitive,
- 46:53Speaker 3: because it's just not necessary.
- 46:57Speaker 2: I totally agree.
- 46:59Speaker 3: Let me get back off my saw this my soapbox
- 47:01Speaker 3: and go back to you. So have you ever experienced
- 47:05Speaker 3: like a like a dark knight of the soul or
- 47:07Speaker 3: what is? Unless you've had multiple descents, But what do
- 47:11Speaker 3: you think that one of your distances has been?
- 47:13Speaker 1: Oh man, there's a couple that I uh, I will
- 47:20Speaker 1: have to probably say, I mean, I guess it would
- 47:24Speaker 1: be the first time I well, maybe the first time
- 47:28Speaker 1: I crossed the abyss.
- 47:31Speaker 2: Uh.
- 47:32Speaker 3: So when you say you cross the abyss, can you
- 47:34Speaker 3: explain more about what that means?
- 47:37Speaker 2: All right? Could get a little dark.
- 47:41Speaker 1: Uh, I'm not scared my opinion, and people may not
- 47:47Speaker 1: totally agree with this, and maybe some people will actually
- 47:50Speaker 1: come across a lot of people listening to my show
- 47:51Speaker 1: that seem to agree with me, so maybe I'm not
- 47:53Speaker 1: so crazy. Just like shamanism and even kind of like NDS,
- 48:00Speaker 1: you're going to have to separate your soul from your
- 48:01Speaker 1: body and kind of temporarily commit suicide. My opinion, it's
- 48:06Speaker 1: technically gonna have to take yourself out to have a
- 48:08Speaker 1: magical experience across the abyss.
- 48:10Speaker 2: That's just might opin.
- 48:13Speaker 1: Not that I went the route of this, but in
- 48:16Speaker 1: my opinion, Flatliners, that movie is extremely real because that's
- 48:22Speaker 1: basically the same thing. When you look at what shamanism is,
- 48:24Speaker 1: they push themselves to practically death. You hear people who
- 48:28Speaker 1: have NDEs and they have almost the same experiences. I
- 48:33Speaker 1: do think crossing the abyss, you are letting your soul
- 48:37Speaker 1: slip out of your flesh and you were actually having
- 48:40Speaker 1: an experience with God eventually.
- 48:46Speaker 3: I mean, I think that there's something to be said
- 48:48Speaker 3: about that because a lot of people who have like ndies,
- 48:51Speaker 3: like you said, near death experiences, they a lot of
- 48:53Speaker 3: them have some more things to say. But also I
- 48:56Speaker 3: feel like, coming from a psychedelic point of view, a
- 48:58Speaker 3: lot of people who use tycondelic in order to experience
- 49:01Speaker 3: ego deaths, depending on like whether it be ioas whatever
- 49:04Speaker 3: you do. You know, like that also is is a
- 49:08Speaker 3: it's not exactly a physical death, but more of a
- 49:10Speaker 3: like ego death, And a lot.
- 49:12Speaker 2: Of people think things avail very much for a person.
- 49:15Speaker 3: Sure, yeah, so what was your experience.
- 49:17Speaker 1: Like, well, every time, well or just like real quick,
- 49:21Speaker 1: every time I do have this experience that I've had
- 49:23Speaker 1: a four times, there is a physical feeling in visuals
- 49:28Speaker 1: I see every time. So that's like even another thing
- 49:30Speaker 1: like how I know what's even coming on what.
- 49:32Speaker 2: I'm getting there? Well, I know what I'm doing. What
- 49:34Speaker 2: am I saying? I know what I'm doing when I'm
- 49:35Speaker 2: doing it?
- 49:35Speaker 1: Anyway, But after the first time, because of that experience,
- 49:43Speaker 1: and I guess explaining to you what I think I experienced,
- 49:49Speaker 1: You're going to have to start questioning everything that you've
- 49:51Speaker 1: believed prior.
- 49:54Speaker 2: Well, my opinion for the way I grew up.
- 49:57Speaker 1: Not that I'm comparing myself to him, but I mean technically,
- 50:01Speaker 1: only well known religious people die and come back, So
- 50:06Speaker 1: for somebody to even come out and start even thinking
- 50:08Speaker 1: that is even like a little weird. But uh, when
- 50:14Speaker 1: whenever I come back from these experiences, I don't know
- 50:18Speaker 1: how to explain it, but it is as if like
- 50:21Speaker 1: I get shown things that were inside my brain prior
- 50:25Speaker 1: that I didn't understand being put together as a puzzle,
- 50:28Speaker 1: and it making sense to me that to sound like
- 50:31Speaker 1: the Matrix or Neo. It's not that drastic where he's like, oh,
- 50:33Speaker 1: I know, kung Fu, but you will wake up or
- 50:36Speaker 1: I will wake up, and no, shit, I did not
- 50:38Speaker 1: understand the no prior. All of a sudden, it's like
- 50:40Speaker 1: it just starts getting rewired in my head and almost
- 50:42Speaker 1: here like it's almost as like a voice. Really it's
- 50:45Speaker 1: like telling you look at this. You know, it's very weird.
- 50:49Speaker 1: I've had you know, that experience happens every time. There's
- 50:51Speaker 1: been times when I open up my eyes from this
- 50:53Speaker 1: experience and everything looks like it's basically just light shooting
- 50:57Speaker 1: up and then changing into everything that's around me. The
- 51:02Speaker 1: things that I saw in these experiences make you wonder
- 51:06Speaker 1: about what NASA is selling you, because there's very much
- 51:10Speaker 1: like out of space to an extent, it's just really
- 51:13Speaker 1: weird to where you have to sell wondering like what's
- 51:16Speaker 1: this reality? You know, is it really as dense as
- 51:20Speaker 1: we think it is. I don't want to make it
- 51:23Speaker 1: sound like a matrix, but just have to wonder like
- 51:25Speaker 1: how real real is this? And for me that shattered,
- 51:32Speaker 1: you know, everything that I had believed prior to understanding
- 51:35Speaker 1: how the world works was completely shattered. And I think
- 51:39Speaker 1: in that point my opinion, I think, you know, shadow
- 51:44Speaker 1: work is very very important to even have this experience,
- 51:47Speaker 1: but I think it's going to actually be much more
- 51:49Speaker 1: If that is important, you know, it's not as important,
- 51:51Speaker 1: but much more important dealing with what's going to go
- 51:54Speaker 1: through your head after you have this experience or trying
- 51:56Speaker 1: to make sense of it, and that could be I
- 52:01Speaker 1: guess maybe my dark k eye of the soul, because
- 52:03Speaker 1: it's like one I realized I've probably been lied to,
- 52:06Speaker 1: a misunderstood and now I have to sit here and
- 52:10Speaker 1: try to think am I crazy and have I losted?
- 52:12Speaker 2: Or am I actually onto something? And that gets scary. Uh.
- 52:18Speaker 2: Physically I didn't feel good for a few days. That
- 52:23Speaker 2: was like weird.
- 52:25Speaker 3: Uh.
- 52:25Speaker 1: So it was just like, uh, I mean there's other
- 52:27Speaker 1: at one point. And you know, the last time I
- 52:28Speaker 1: did it, I ended up in the hospital because I
- 52:31Speaker 1: was just like, something's wrong my one. Every time I
- 52:34Speaker 1: do it, my one eyeball blows open and the other
- 52:36Speaker 1: one gets pent smaller.
- 52:39Speaker 3: You mean your your pupil, right.
- 52:41Speaker 1: Yes, I don't know if like people might have seen
- 52:43Speaker 1: a couple of months ago the loop, I was saying,
- 52:46Speaker 1: the liver King, I think does the same shit. He
- 52:48Speaker 1: was talking shit about Joe Rogan, and I think, like
- 52:50Speaker 1: the guy Joe Rogan and the pressing charges on him whatever,
- 52:52Speaker 1: some big, you know, fucking bullshit spiel. But as he's
- 52:54Speaker 1: going on acting like an anshole on the fucking on
- 52:57Speaker 1: the video, one pupil's blown out, the other ones pinned.
- 53:01Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, the guy just came back from
- 53:03Speaker 1: the abyss and he's fucking lost his fucking mind for
- 53:05Speaker 1: their fewd next few days, he's not gonna make any
- 53:07Speaker 1: sense and he's gonna talk trash. So like for me,
- 53:11Speaker 1: you know, coming back. Yeah, So like I've had that.
- 53:14Speaker 1: I ended up having an issue with my blood, which
- 53:16Speaker 1: was really interesting. It only happened after that, so like
- 53:19Speaker 1: even like progressively or even made me the last one,
- 53:22Speaker 1: but it had brought me to that, uh to even
- 53:24Speaker 1: going to the hospital. There was just like a lot
- 53:27Speaker 1: of stuff that was shattering my ideas of existence. I
- 53:32Speaker 1: don't know what it is that made me think this,
- 53:35Speaker 1: but because of one of those experiences, something just popped
- 53:38Speaker 1: up in my head and said, look into the eyeballs
- 53:40Speaker 1: in the brain. I don't know why. And then I
- 53:44Speaker 1: started looking into that and I was like, Jesus fucking Christ,
- 53:46Speaker 1: there's so many sigils and symbolism and in here it's
- 53:48Speaker 1: fucking insane. And then he started realizing, like what I
- 53:54Speaker 1: thought magic is the idea that the Oto gave me
- 53:57Speaker 1: or any other place the Saint it. And I think
- 54:00Speaker 1: I was a little bit resentful for that to begin with,
- 54:02Speaker 1: because if what I do think is actually happening, and
- 54:05Speaker 1: if I really did experience crossing the Abyss, I think
- 54:08Speaker 1: you should be a little bit more open about what
- 54:09Speaker 1: somebody is going to go through and what their experience
- 54:11Speaker 1: is going to be, and stop with so many fucking secrets,
- 54:16Speaker 1: because I don't think it's healthy for somebody to have
- 54:18Speaker 1: that experience not really knowing what the fuck they're doing,
- 54:22Speaker 1: because again, if you're not mentally strong enough for it.
- 54:24Speaker 2: I do think it will warp your mind and fuck
- 54:26Speaker 2: you up.
- 54:30Speaker 3: Do you think I'm not.
- 54:31Speaker 1: Patting myself on the back saying I was a gangster
- 54:32Speaker 1: because I dealt with some serious shit in my head
- 54:34Speaker 1: to be able to get to where I am now
- 54:36Speaker 1: after these experiences.
- 54:38Speaker 3: Do you think that we're meant to have that experience?
- 54:41Speaker 1: Yes, yes I do. I think we all have the power.
- 54:45Speaker 1: It doesn't matter who you are, how shitty of a
- 54:46Speaker 1: person you've ever been. We all have the chance to
- 54:48Speaker 1: have a conscious contact with God.
- 54:51Speaker 3: Do you think that everyone can handle it?
- 54:53Speaker 2: Though? No, I barely could. I'm keeping a real I
- 54:58Speaker 2: barely could.
- 55:00Speaker 3: Because this is my thing. It's like, I don't think
- 55:01Speaker 3: that psychedelics is for everyone. Some people would argue, but
- 55:05Speaker 3: I don't think that psychedelics is for everyone. I don't
- 55:07Speaker 3: think that accessing certain information is right for everyone, because
- 55:10Speaker 3: not everyone is meant to handle that kind of information.
- 55:13Speaker 2: I will not promote drug use. Let me just preface this.
- 55:18Speaker 1: Even when I had these experiences, I wasn't even smoking
- 55:20Speaker 1: weed anymore. The only time this, all these experiences actually
- 55:22Speaker 1: were pre COVID, right before COVID, and due to COVID,
- 55:26Speaker 1: I was just like YO, just for me to go
- 55:27Speaker 1: out in public and deal with like life, I'm gonna
- 55:29Speaker 1: have to start to fucking get high again. I should
- 55:32Speaker 1: you not smoking weed again just to fucking deal with
- 55:34Speaker 1: the situation. So I was totally drug free when I
- 55:38Speaker 1: had my experiences. I don't promote drugs because I didn't
- 55:42Speaker 1: need them, but yes, I do think they can help
- 55:44Speaker 1: AID if used correctly.
- 55:46Speaker 3: So you know what I think we haven't clarified is
- 55:48Speaker 3: how do you even access crossing the abyss? You specifically?
- 55:53Speaker 1: Uh, I'd be totally honest with you, probably like the list.
- 55:58Speaker 1: You know, it's six months, maybe six to eight months
- 56:00Speaker 1: of my practice. I'm just telling you from my experience,
- 56:04Speaker 1: you know, So I really you know what I'm saying.
- 56:06Speaker 1: For me to tell somebody how to get there, I
- 56:07Speaker 1: can really only tell them what I did well. First off, meditation, meditation, meditation, meditation,
- 56:15Speaker 1: you better learn how to meditate, and I well, for me,
- 56:18Speaker 1: I needed to learn how to meditate to quiet my mind.
- 56:21Speaker 1: But the last, you know, like again, six to eight
- 56:23Speaker 1: months before the experiences, I was heavily, heavily into chakra work, visualizations,
- 56:31Speaker 1: breathing techniques, and tons of shadow work and praying. I
- 56:37Speaker 1: was praying constantly about please remove these things that are
- 56:41Speaker 1: making me a motherfucking piece of shit. I don't want
- 56:45Speaker 1: to be this person anymore because this is taking me
- 56:48Speaker 1: away from having an experience with God. It was tons
- 56:52Speaker 1: that it doesn't sound Edgyagathi, you know what I'm saying,
- 56:56Speaker 1: But a lot of it was literally like doing cabalistic
- 56:59Speaker 1: stuff and praying to God certain ideas on this tree
- 57:02Speaker 1: of that idea of God.
- 57:04Speaker 2: A lot of it was a lot of work like that.
- 57:06Speaker 1: Basically, there was times I fucking cried and begged said
- 57:09Speaker 1: did not want to be the motherfucker I was anymore.
- 57:12Speaker 1: And I don't know if it was that, but at
- 57:13Speaker 1: some point I had even realized that I'm so fucked
- 57:15Speaker 1: up that I can have morals and values that actually
- 57:19Speaker 1: contradict each other depending on what situation I'm in, on
- 57:21Speaker 1: how the way I want to look at things, and
- 57:24Speaker 1: I was just like, oh, this just isn't working for me.
- 57:27Speaker 1: It was almost like wargames when the computer was just like,
- 57:29Speaker 1: you know what the best way to win is, don't
- 57:31Speaker 1: even play the.
- 57:31Speaker 2: Fucking game anymore. Bro.
- 57:33Speaker 1: And I don't know if I was just so done
- 57:35Speaker 1: with the experience of being here on Earth and just
- 57:38Speaker 1: wanting to, you know, transcend to something else. But eventually,
- 57:42Speaker 1: when I went into my meditations, I just started to
- 57:45Speaker 1: notice something different and held on to that. There's a
- 57:48Speaker 1: certain visual that I had noticed that if I hold
- 57:50Speaker 1: onto that and quiet my mind and don't fear it
- 57:52Speaker 1: and just let it happen.
- 57:54Speaker 2: It happens.
- 57:59Speaker 3: So what do you see?
- 58:01Speaker 2: All the way?
- 58:02Speaker 1: It will get extremely extremely extremely dark, Like you don't
- 58:06Speaker 1: like when you close your eyes and you meditate, and
- 58:08Speaker 1: for you maybe you on the stand, after a while,
- 58:10Speaker 1: it just seems to get darker because your eyes are
- 58:12Speaker 1: vibing closed and you're not so focused on the outside world.
- 58:14Speaker 1: So like you know, when people what I'm saying now,
- 58:17Speaker 1: you know, when you're meditating for a while and it's
- 58:19Speaker 1: you know, real dark with your eyes closed. It's almost
- 58:23Speaker 1: as if this is another thing. I always focus on
- 58:26Speaker 1: my pineal gland when I'm doing this. I'm pressing on it.
- 58:29Speaker 1: That may sound crazy, but for people who can actually
- 58:31Speaker 1: fear feel them spinning or sense, you know, the pressure
- 58:35Speaker 1: of the chakra, I can. I would always focus on
- 58:40Speaker 1: my panial and push on it. And at some point
- 58:42Speaker 1: when I would do that, all of a sudden, it
- 58:44Speaker 1: would look like oil spilled across the black that I
- 58:47Speaker 1: already thought was black, to make it a lot darker,
- 58:50Speaker 1: like completely black. And then all of a sudden, and
- 58:54Speaker 1: I want to sound cheesy, I do a question, if
- 58:57Speaker 1: this is the blazing star. I see this one, a
- 59:00Speaker 1: little pin dot of this burning light in this darkness,
- 59:04Speaker 1: and if I focus on it with my pineal gland
- 59:06Speaker 1: and kind of hold on to it, it starts to
- 59:08Speaker 1: come closer, and then all of a sudden, it turns
- 59:11Speaker 1: into like this eclipse. Just hence why I have eclipses
- 59:14Speaker 1: all over all my stuff. It's even on my logo
- 59:17Speaker 1: that's even resembling an image that I see before it happens.
- 59:21Speaker 1: I will see it looks like an eclipse, and then
- 59:24Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it will start to look like
- 59:27Speaker 1: explosions around it, and then it almost like looks like
- 59:31Speaker 1: they turn more reddish than orange, and it starts to
- 59:34Speaker 1: look like roses blooming around this eclipse. And then all
- 59:38Speaker 1: of a sudden, it just all that goes away. And
- 59:41Speaker 1: then it's like you get all this like like fluorescent
- 59:43Speaker 1: almost thermal camera looking. There's colors that I can't even
- 59:47Speaker 1: explain the way it looks. I can't even explain how
- 59:50Speaker 1: to say, it's not neon, it's not thermal, it's really weird.
- 59:54Speaker 1: And you'll see these colors come out like of this
- 59:56Speaker 1: sphere and then start spinning and it almost looks like
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: roof like vibrations or like a record spinning of all
- 1:00:03Speaker 1: these different like I've been told that's the rainbow bridge,
- 1:00:07Speaker 1: where it's like like coming at you and it's just
- 1:00:10Speaker 1: like really ominous, and at this point I don't hear
- 1:00:13Speaker 1: a fucking thing anymore. It's like I practically went death
- 1:00:17Speaker 1: and I'm just seeing that, and then all of a sudden,
- 1:00:20Speaker 1: I'll get like these sacred geometry symbols like like spinning
- 1:00:25Speaker 1: and just like coming at me, and then that will end,
- 1:00:28Speaker 1: and then you'll see what I use on my logo.
- 1:00:32Speaker 1: The best way for me to explain it is if
- 1:00:33Speaker 1: maybe I was like standing in a subway and two
- 1:00:36Speaker 1: cars were coming past me, but real slow, and you
- 1:00:40Speaker 1: could see inside each window.
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: It's like out of the eclipse. On the sides of
- 1:00:44Speaker 2: the eclipse.
- 1:00:45Speaker 1: There's just like these windows just coming out almost look
- 1:00:49Speaker 1: like monoliths with like just looks like different places and
- 1:00:53Speaker 1: different times or something. And they start coming out and
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: it just keeps going for a little bit, and then
- 1:01:00Speaker 1: all of a sudden, those disappear, and then it's like
- 1:01:03Speaker 1: it's like they eclips and it's just like like burning.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: And then instead of normally pulling apart when you watch
- 1:01:09Speaker 1: the moon wax wing, well, I've noticed it's different in
- 1:01:12Speaker 1: North Carolina the New York. It's not always left to
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: right or right to left, you know what I'm saying.
- 1:01:16Speaker 1: It will go from just like Toast's headdress. It will
- 1:01:21Speaker 1: pull from the bottom up and you start to see
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: the black sphere that's in front of the white slowly
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: lift up, which starts to give it a crescent. Eventually
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: it almost looks like a smiley face, and then totally
- 1:01:34Speaker 1: lifts off the white. And then it's like if I
- 1:01:37Speaker 1: look down the barrel of the gun and pull the trigger,
- 1:01:39Speaker 1: it's like.
- 1:01:41Speaker 2: Hits me.
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: It feels like I get shot right in the head.
- 1:01:43Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden, I start feeling all
- 1:01:45Speaker 1: that shit where it's I can literally feel my souls
- 1:01:49Speaker 1: suck out the top of my head where the Jews
- 1:01:51Speaker 1: put their little yamaga. I can literally feel go through
- 1:01:56Speaker 1: my body. I have never felt so alive and toll
- 1:02:00Speaker 1: I died. Shit, you not that is the one time
- 1:02:04Speaker 1: I actually felt fucking alive is in that situation. And
- 1:02:08Speaker 1: then when that happens, it's as if everything just melts
- 1:02:12Speaker 1: right off of you. Every worry, every hate, every fear
- 1:02:18Speaker 1: is fucking gone, and the only thing I feel and
- 1:02:22Speaker 1: experience is a feeling of love that I never could
- 1:02:25Speaker 1: even imagine.
- 1:02:25Speaker 2: Here.
- 1:02:26Speaker 1: It's better than any sex I've ever had, and it's
- 1:02:28Speaker 1: better than any drug I've taken. It is ten times
- 1:02:31Speaker 1: stronger than the feeling I've ever thought I felt of
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: love here, and it just radiates, and you're just a
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: part of something, and you're not thinking about your iPhone,
- 1:02:41Speaker 1: not thinking about your boyfriend, what's going on on the news.
- 1:02:44Speaker 1: You're actually just sitting there in love, which just existing
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: so fucking different. And then as soon as you think itself,
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: but damn, you're done, spright back to your body and
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: your eyes open up fucking over. You just disconnected yourself
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: from God because you're thought of yourself.
- 1:03:08Speaker 2: I look at it as I walked away from God,
- 1:03:10Speaker 2: and I'm the one who has to do the work
- 1:03:11Speaker 2: to get back to him.
- 1:03:14Speaker 3: How does one get back to God?
- 1:03:17Speaker 1: I honestly think prayer, meditation and rituals and being completely,
- 1:03:20Speaker 1: utterly honest with yourself. I know it sounds cheesy, but
- 1:03:27Speaker 1: a lot of meditation too.
- 1:03:30Speaker 3: Do you think that that is part of your Do
- 1:03:35Speaker 3: you think that that's part of your purpose? Is to
- 1:03:37Speaker 3: be closer to God?
- 1:03:38Speaker 2: Yes? I think that's everybody's purpose here.
- 1:03:41Speaker 1: This may sound screwed up, but I think from a
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: kiss to a senseless murder is all just showing the
- 1:03:47Speaker 1: discontent of our soul being taken away from God and
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: the source. This is all acts of just us being
- 1:03:53Speaker 1: uncomfortable in the skin, mourman, and we look for ways
- 1:03:55Speaker 1: to feel better about it. That sounds hard, but I
- 1:03:59Speaker 1: don't think we're meant to be here.
- 1:04:02Speaker 3: Where do you think we're meant to be We're.
- 1:04:04Speaker 1: Meant to be much better than this, so much great.
- 1:04:06Speaker 1: We're meant to be free and to be love, because
- 1:04:08Speaker 1: that's what we are, and that's what God is, pure
- 1:04:12Speaker 1: love stuck.
- 1:04:12Speaker 2: In the flesh.
- 1:04:15Speaker 3: Why do you think that we're here? Then?
- 1:04:19Speaker 2: I for me, I don't know. I made a choice
- 1:04:23Speaker 2: for some reason. I think I don't know.
- 1:04:26Speaker 1: I've even wondered over the fallen angels and we're just like, yo,
- 1:04:29Speaker 1: we fucked up.
- 1:04:30Speaker 2: I'm gotta get back, man, what do.
- 1:04:33Speaker 3: You think happens to us after we die?
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: We go somewhere else. It's not over.
- 1:04:38Speaker 1: People should not, my opinion, don't fear death. It's gonna suck.
- 1:04:44Speaker 1: You're gonna lose the things that you love and the
- 1:04:46Speaker 1: stuff that you're attached to. But you're gonna have another
- 1:04:48Speaker 1: experience again. Might be a blade of grass or a.
- 1:04:51Speaker 2: Cat, and maybe you'll look out and actually be a cat.
- 1:04:54Speaker 2: Fuck I like that. Next time. Fuck you give me
- 1:04:57Speaker 2: food and let me sleep off fucking day, yo, for.
- 1:04:59Speaker 1: All you know when those guys it was a sleeping
- 1:05:00Speaker 1: all day that jumping the bits themselves will meditate. They
- 1:05:02Speaker 1: gotta bat. Might have a great fucking life in the
- 1:05:04Speaker 1: head being able to clean up my shoe and give
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: me food all day.
- 1:05:10Speaker 2: It was got a meat, you know.
- 1:05:12Speaker 1: But uh no, I honestly do think energy is just energy.
- 1:05:17Speaker 1: Uh it's not destroyed. We will continue to go on
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: some fashion of form. I think the whole thing though,
- 1:05:28Speaker 1: with reincarnation, I think for the most part, there's no
- 1:05:30Speaker 1: memory of the past.
- 1:05:33Speaker 2: That's the problem. I think.
- 1:05:37Speaker 1: Having an experience in magic, you can have the memory.
- 1:05:42Speaker 1: That's the difference.
- 1:05:46Speaker 3: So if I if I correct me, if I'm wrong.
- 1:05:49Speaker 3: For a while, you felt like you didn't really want
- 1:05:51Speaker 3: to exist, and this crossing into the BIST has giving
- 1:05:54Speaker 3: you hope and giving you reason to continue.
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: Oh yeah, I'd never I don't think I knew who
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: I was on my purpose was until then. Like I've
- 1:06:04Speaker 1: said before, I'm not trying to knock it because I
- 1:06:06Speaker 1: was one of those people always going around and thinking,
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: oh yeah, ud do what that wilth I know, you know,
- 1:06:10Speaker 1: if it's my will, I'll do it. I did not
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: know who I was or what my will was until
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: ife crosed the abyssess the smike, which.
- 1:06:16Speaker 3: For anyone who doesn't know anything about the Lima as
- 1:06:19Speaker 3: one of the basic tenets.
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: Yeah, which is a beautiful thing.
- 1:06:24Speaker 1: And unfortunately people twist it and I've seen people in
- 1:06:27Speaker 1: the orders, you know, conspiracy through It's like, do you
- 1:06:30Speaker 1: ever forget about the whole the love is the Law part?
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: Do we forget about that?
- 1:06:37Speaker 1: Because that actually sounds pretty fucking sweet, doesn't it?
- 1:06:41Speaker 2: Love is the law? Man.
- 1:06:42Speaker 1: That's just wrong with that, you know what I'm saying,
- 1:06:45Speaker 1: you know, do what that will? That whole phrase you
- 1:06:46Speaker 1: know that includes love is the Law? Why do people
- 1:06:48Speaker 1: fuck this whole thing off?
- 1:06:51Speaker 3: Okay, I have a challenging question, and we don't have
- 1:06:53Speaker 3: to include this. If you think that love is so important,
- 1:06:57Speaker 3: why don't you want to stick up for people who
- 1:07:00Speaker 3: are less privileged.
- 1:07:01Speaker 1: Than you, Because I think if we all had these experiences,
- 1:07:05Speaker 1: we wouldn't even be in these positions.
- 1:07:09Speaker 3: But we don't all have those experiences.
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: Well, I think we need to though.
- 1:07:13Speaker 1: I would even say if you just start practicing at
- 1:07:16Speaker 1: what I'm saying to do to have an experience with God,
- 1:07:18Speaker 1: people would change regardless if they even had the experience.
- 1:07:21Speaker 3: But I think in order to have your experience, you
- 1:07:22Speaker 3: need to have a certain amount of privilege maybe and
- 1:07:27Speaker 3: in order to access that privilege, and we need people
- 1:07:29Speaker 3: like you to help other people who are less privileged.
- 1:07:32Speaker 1: But I do think this is a bad example. I'm sorry,
- 1:07:35Speaker 1: and it's just maybe you picked the wrong order. I'm
- 1:07:37Speaker 1: pretty sure there's the two and I forgot his name.
- 1:07:39Speaker 1: That was, you know, major name of the oto that
- 1:07:41Speaker 1: did cross the abyss from his jail cell. So I mean,
- 1:07:45Speaker 1: I mean you even do have who's that kid from
- 1:07:48Speaker 1: the West Memphis three? He did pretty well for him selfie.
- 1:07:50Speaker 3: And locked up Damien Eccles.
- 1:07:52Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I'm just playing Devil's I forget him
- 1:07:57Speaker 1: playing with you.
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
- 1:07:58Speaker 3: But well, I think that there's something to be said
- 1:08:00Speaker 3: about having your needs met, and I mean in jail,
- 1:08:05Speaker 3: like you guess your basic needs are met? Yeah, but
- 1:08:07Speaker 3: you have nothing else to do. But I wouldn't. I
- 1:08:10Speaker 3: went in suggestion.
- 1:08:11Speaker 1: I'm not going to sit it here and condemn myself
- 1:08:12Speaker 1: for the unfortunate fucking way I was born. I did
- 1:08:15Speaker 1: not ask it to be born in Suffolk County by
- 1:08:17Speaker 1: a white fucking family with privileges.
- 1:08:18Speaker 2: I can't help that. I'm sorry.
- 1:08:20Speaker 3: I don't think you need to apologize for it. But
- 1:08:23Speaker 3: I do think that there's something to be said about
- 1:08:25Speaker 3: helping other people if you do have privilege.
- 1:08:27Speaker 2: What do you think I'm doing with this podcast? I'm
- 1:08:29Speaker 2: helping motherfuckers all day?
- 1:08:30Speaker 3: Yeah? Sure?
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: So why do I got to get specific on it?
- 1:08:34Speaker 1: Because if I stick up for one, there's obviously division
- 1:08:37Speaker 1: from the other.
- 1:08:37Speaker 2: I'm not playing that game.
- 1:08:40Speaker 1: My message is for everybody, and when it comes to
- 1:08:42Speaker 1: politics and everything else, I don't give a fuck. I'm
- 1:08:44Speaker 1: here for people to have a connection with God. Everything else.
- 1:08:48Speaker 1: You have a million other people to go listen to
- 1:08:50Speaker 1: for that.
- 1:08:50Speaker 2: That's not me.
- 1:08:52Speaker 1: Yeah, there's enough motherfuckers out there with the shit you're
- 1:08:55Speaker 1: talking about running their mouths all day.
- 1:08:57Speaker 2: Go listen to them.
- 1:08:58Speaker 1: I'm here to have a conscious with God and that
- 1:09:01Speaker 1: eliminates everything else.
- 1:09:02Speaker 2: Sorry, yeah, I mean, I.
- 1:09:04Speaker 3: Don't think you need to apologize for it. I'm just
- 1:09:07Speaker 3: I'm just curious on your standpoint because to me, I
- 1:09:10Speaker 3: feel like if you have a certain amount of privilege,
- 1:09:12Speaker 3: you get certain amount of access, which is one of
- 1:09:14Speaker 3: the things that I've noticed a lot about ceremonial magic
- 1:09:16Speaker 3: is a lot of it comes with comes from privilege
- 1:09:19Speaker 3: and having the time and having your needs already met
- 1:09:22Speaker 3: so that you can access certain things and have certain
- 1:09:24Speaker 3: time for certain things. Not everyone. Ceremonial magic is not
- 1:09:27Speaker 3: accessible for everyone. So it's just an interesting conversation that
- 1:09:33Speaker 3: I'm wanting to pick your brain about.
- 1:09:35Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, well one thing, and again this isn't
- 1:09:37Speaker 1: to go back and forth.
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: One thing I do want to add.
- 1:09:42Speaker 1: After the first experience that I had when I crossed
- 1:09:44Speaker 1: the Abyss, I was again blown away, taken back, and
- 1:09:48Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, I think, I'm just
- 1:09:49Speaker 1: gonna cut down to the basics and I'm just going
- 1:09:52Speaker 1: to meditate. I did no rituals, I lit nothing, I
- 1:09:55Speaker 1: just sat in a chair and I meditated. And I
- 1:09:57Speaker 1: still did it three more times. I just needed to
- 1:10:02Speaker 1: sorry to Saint and close my eyes. Yeah, I'm not
- 1:10:05Speaker 1: just you know, I'm not trying to go back at you,
- 1:10:07Speaker 1: but I'm just saying, like that costs me nothing.
- 1:10:11Speaker 2: Meditating.
- 1:10:13Speaker 3: Meditation is free, and I agree that meditation is an
- 1:10:15Speaker 3: incredible tool that everyone has.
- 1:10:16Speaker 2: Right, I do get what you're saying.
- 1:10:18Speaker 1: I'm not discrediting what you're saying because I will say
- 1:10:21Speaker 1: and this is this is even a thing I'm going
- 1:10:24Speaker 1: to cover in one of my herbs.
- 1:10:25Speaker 2: So this might be a little controversial.
- 1:10:28Speaker 1: I'm coming out with an art book and its effects
- 1:10:32Speaker 1: on the nervous system. Where am I going with this?
- 1:10:38Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of how the way I'm gonna
- 1:10:39Speaker 1: word this. There's a lot of times where I think
- 1:10:41Speaker 1: if you're looking at the what you're using that herb for,
- 1:10:46Speaker 1: when you burn it and it affects your vegas system
- 1:10:49Speaker 1: or your cranial nerves, you're going to think whatever you're
- 1:10:52Speaker 1: doing actually worked because it's.
- 1:10:53Speaker 2: Going to give you that sensation, believe it or not.
- 1:10:57Speaker 1: Long story, short, it's a very expense to actually be
- 1:11:02Speaker 1: a ceremonial magician if you want to start fucking with
- 1:11:04Speaker 1: all these nerves and all these crystals and all these
- 1:11:06Speaker 1: things that I actually don't think is one necessary to use.
- 1:11:12Speaker 1: But unfortunately, the way the community I think has grown,
- 1:11:18Speaker 1: the more trinkets and things you have, the better of
- 1:11:21Speaker 1: a magician you wire. So we I myself included, probably
- 1:11:25Speaker 1: spent way more money than I should have on crystals,
- 1:11:27Speaker 1: believe it or not, and now I look back at
- 1:11:30Speaker 1: it and just think it was a waste.
- 1:11:32Speaker 2: But yes, if you want to get into this stuff,
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: odds are.
- 1:11:35Speaker 1: It's going to be expensive if you want to do
- 1:11:37Speaker 1: it the way it seems to be being done visually everywhere.
- 1:11:41Speaker 3: Mm hmm.
- 1:11:43Speaker 1: I mean you look at if you look at you know,
- 1:11:44Speaker 1: certain Buddhists as a certain again, like I'm even covering
- 1:11:47Speaker 1: a well for an event that I've been possibly asked
- 1:11:51Speaker 1: to speak at.
- 1:11:52Speaker 2: Uh, there was a topic I was going to cover.
- 1:11:56Speaker 1: With uh, shamanism and des Fuck, I totally forgot where
- 1:12:01Speaker 1: I was going with this.
- 1:12:03Speaker 2: I'm so sorry. I just had a brain forward.
- 1:12:05Speaker 3: Okay, we're talking about herbs, so we can move into
- 1:12:10Speaker 3: kind of like how you find sovereignties. So like you've
- 1:12:12Speaker 3: gone through this crossing the bits multiple times and it's
- 1:12:15Speaker 3: kind of giving you purpose and brought you closer to God.
- 1:12:20Speaker 3: How has the occult in that experience like really changed
- 1:12:23Speaker 3: your life? Like you wanted to be less of a
- 1:12:25Speaker 3: shitty person? Do you think that you now are a
- 1:12:27Speaker 3: less of a shitty person?
- 1:12:30Speaker 2: Yeah? In some ways, yes, in some ways I still
- 1:12:33Speaker 2: have to change. Yeah.
- 1:12:37Speaker 1: Of course I've made horrible decisions and choices since I've
- 1:12:39Speaker 1: been podcasting.
- 1:12:41Speaker 2: You know, keep it real, I'm human. Uh, But no,
- 1:12:46Speaker 2: it does. Uh.
- 1:12:50Speaker 1: If I stay true to what the vision is that
- 1:12:54Speaker 1: I had for this show and don't try to sell
- 1:12:59Speaker 1: my self too much, I feel very fulfilled and feel
- 1:13:03Speaker 1: like I'm doing what I'm supposed to do. You know,
- 1:13:06Speaker 1: in podcasting maybe it's hard for people to understand. But
- 1:13:08Speaker 1: like in my opinion, unfortunately I can't tell you about
- 1:13:13Speaker 1: the the Colt community. I would probably assume, but in
- 1:13:16Speaker 1: the conspiracy community, things may not be what it seems.
- 1:13:21Speaker 1: You're gonna probably have to, oh cook for a click
- 1:13:25Speaker 1: or somebody that's in a club to get anywhere.
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: It's gonna take a lot, a lot of hard work
- 1:13:31Speaker 2: on your own and I would refuse to do that.
- 1:13:36Speaker 1: So there's times it's just like, you know, maybe you
- 1:13:41Speaker 1: will entertain guess that you normally wouldn't, just to get
- 1:13:44Speaker 1: your name out, you know what I'm saying, or just
- 1:13:48Speaker 1: do certain things you're using the other person really for
- 1:13:51Speaker 1: a name, keep it real. I'm not comfortable with doing
- 1:13:54Speaker 1: that anymore. That is a huge thing that's done in podcasting.
- 1:13:57Speaker 1: So I just actually try to keep to what I
- 1:14:00Speaker 1: think my purpose is and if I have to just
- 1:14:03Speaker 1: do more work to get that done. You've seen yourself.
- 1:14:06Speaker 1: I do a lot of solo shows now. That is
- 1:14:09Speaker 1: because I don't want to start veering off the path
- 1:14:13Speaker 1: just to try to get more fame.
- 1:14:17Speaker 2: You know.
- 1:14:17Speaker 1: Uh So when I am doing that, I feel very fulfilled.
- 1:14:21Speaker 1: I feel like I'm doing something. I feel better about myself,
- 1:14:24Speaker 1: My days go better. You know, things happen that it
- 1:14:28Speaker 1: was supposed to happen. You know, doors open up for
- 1:14:30Speaker 1: me that I didn't even know as possible, never thought of.
- 1:14:34Speaker 1: I mean just even honestly meeting you. I mean that's
- 1:14:36Speaker 1: just you knowing Ivy, that was just something I never
- 1:14:40Speaker 1: would have thought. I mean I knew who Ivy was
- 1:14:42Speaker 1: two years ago. I was trying to get her on
- 1:14:43Speaker 1: the show, but it's just, you know, certain things, even
- 1:14:45Speaker 1: other ocultist I've had on the show, like blown Away,
- 1:14:48Speaker 1: that like I even got to have a conversation with them.
- 1:14:51Speaker 1: Never would have thought five years ago I'd have been
- 1:14:53Speaker 1: doing that, you know, And I get to learn, and
- 1:14:56Speaker 1: that makes me feel good too.
- 1:14:58Speaker 3: I feel like when and one thing that.
- 1:15:00Speaker 1: Just when I add just real quick, the one thing
- 1:15:03Speaker 1: too and again kind of like maybe what I was
- 1:15:06Speaker 1: saying to you before, there were so many people that
- 1:15:08Speaker 1: already covered the occult in certain ways. I want to
- 1:15:09Speaker 1: look at it a little bit different, and I do
- 1:15:13Speaker 1: feel like that's actually being entertained and appreciated and people
- 1:15:19Speaker 1: aren't thinking I'm crazy, And when they actually look at
- 1:15:21Speaker 1: what I'm saying, they like, oh, this guy might be
- 1:15:23Speaker 1: onto something. So that makes me feel a little bit
- 1:15:25Speaker 1: better too. It makes you It's totally honest, But yeah,
- 1:15:28Speaker 1: I try to look at it, you know, again from
- 1:15:29Speaker 1: the science side and the eyeball, you know, I did
- 1:15:31Speaker 1: a whole series on the eyebowl symbolism and even stuff
- 1:15:34Speaker 1: with like you eventually, when I show stuff from Italy
- 1:15:36Speaker 1: and Rome, the tons of eyeball symbolism. I think that,
- 1:15:39Speaker 1: but you know that seems to be catching on and
- 1:15:41Speaker 1: I you know, that's cool. I like that it's a
- 1:15:44Speaker 1: little bit different. Again, like I said, it's not all
- 1:15:46Speaker 1: Dixon demons. There are some science I think into it.
- 1:15:51Speaker 3: What would your advice be to someone who's like trying
- 1:15:54Speaker 3: to find inspiration or trying to find sovereignty or maybe
- 1:15:57Speaker 3: are and a similar place before you had your experiences.
- 1:16:04Speaker 1: Cheesy as it is, probably uh, meditate and pray hmm,
- 1:16:10Speaker 1: And I think you'll end up getting answers that way.
- 1:16:13Speaker 1: Either it will be like just weird decisions jamake or
- 1:16:15Speaker 1: and idea that pups into your head. As cheesy as
- 1:16:18Speaker 1: it is, I do think if you talk to your
- 1:16:20Speaker 1: higher self talk back to you at some point, if
- 1:16:23Speaker 1: you're being honest. That just sounds cheesy, But I really
- 1:16:28Speaker 1: do think prayer, meditation and letting go of the fears
- 1:16:32Speaker 1: and as if you're willing to get there where you
- 1:16:35Speaker 1: want to go, and just keep putting the one foot forward,
- 1:16:39Speaker 1: you'll get where you're going. You'll get where you want
- 1:16:41Speaker 1: to go. You know, you know I'm not saying that
- 1:16:45Speaker 1: like not pushing it too hard, but I do think
- 1:16:48Speaker 1: like you may have to drop some fears, you know,
- 1:16:54Speaker 1: but it will be well worth it after the fact.
- 1:16:59Speaker 1: I can say something a little bit more serious or
- 1:17:01Speaker 1: granther than that, But I really do think I.
- 1:17:03Speaker 3: Think that's very serious, and I think that there's something
- 1:17:05Speaker 3: to be said about the simplicity of it. While meditation
- 1:17:09Speaker 3: is not simple, you know, it takes a lot of
- 1:17:11Speaker 3: a lot of work and dedication for a lot of people,
- 1:17:14Speaker 3: especially in the day, in today's day where we really
- 1:17:17Speaker 3: struggle with stimulation, addiction and the way that our like,
- 1:17:20Speaker 3: you know, we're constantly over inundated with stimulations. Sitting with
- 1:17:23Speaker 3: oneself is incredibly difficult. But it is accessible to everyone.
- 1:17:28Speaker 3: Maybe not everyone has quite as much time because of
- 1:17:30Speaker 3: bread and stuff like that, but yeah, if you can
- 1:17:33Speaker 3: find I.
- 1:17:34Speaker 1: Was doing that shit at three thirty in the morning,
- 1:17:35Speaker 1: I was like, it sucks. I don't want to do
- 1:17:37Speaker 1: this before I go to work.
- 1:17:38Speaker 3: Yeah, But I mean, like, you know, it is accessible
- 1:17:42Speaker 3: to everyone, and it is free, and I think that
- 1:17:44Speaker 3: there's something to be said, especially people who are newer
- 1:17:47Speaker 3: to like the magic sphere from the outside you said,
- 1:17:50Speaker 3: there's like crystals, and like the way that capitalism has infiltrated,
- 1:17:53Speaker 3: the way that we.
- 1:17:53Speaker 1: Oh god, Yeah, that is horrible too. The amount of
- 1:17:55Speaker 1: money you got to pay for this shit is Yeah,
- 1:17:58Speaker 1: discuss going on about that when you're right. The capitalism
- 1:18:02Speaker 1: and the witchcraft community is fucking disgusting.
- 1:18:04Speaker 3: It's a lot.
- 1:18:05Speaker 1: It's like, Yo, why can I go walk into a
- 1:18:07Speaker 1: bodega and by the same herbs and a bag they.
- 1:18:09Speaker 2: Have the price?
- 1:18:10Speaker 3: Yeah, it doesn't have the pretty label on it though,
- 1:18:13Speaker 3: it's just as good. Yeah, Or I would say you
- 1:18:16Speaker 3: can actually eat if you want to, Yeah, sure, Or
- 1:18:19Speaker 3: connecting to plant spirits outside and maybe switching out correspondences
- 1:18:24Speaker 3: for things that like feel that energy and ask yourself
- 1:18:27Speaker 3: to use your own intuition. Ultimately, Like, I feel like
- 1:18:29Speaker 3: there's power in that magic is accessible to everybody, But
- 1:18:32Speaker 3: I think that a lot of people who are new
- 1:18:34Speaker 3: to this space don't quite understand. But when I think
- 1:18:36Speaker 3: that first and foremost, meditation is accessible to everyone, but
- 1:18:39Speaker 3: you have to keep working at it. And I think
- 1:18:43Speaker 3: that there's something very beautiful and poignant about the simplicity
- 1:18:46Speaker 3: of your answer. What are you currently booming into? How
- 1:18:48Speaker 3: can people find you? What exciting projects do you have
- 1:18:51Speaker 3: coming up?
- 1:18:53Speaker 2: I do have.
- 1:18:55Speaker 1: I'm working on some solar and lunar temples that are,
- 1:18:58Speaker 1: you know, just something like basic info about them.
- 1:19:00Speaker 2: I'm working on.
- 1:19:01Speaker 1: That to put out I do have uh I should
- 1:19:04Speaker 1: be working on Johanna's Kepler soon. That is one thing
- 1:19:07Speaker 1: that I do do on the Occult Rejects. I try
- 1:19:09Speaker 1: to cover a lot of people from the past, a
- 1:19:12Speaker 1: lot of them. Actually, I've been taking off the Gnostic
- 1:19:15Speaker 1: Saints list from the OTO. I don't even think half
- 1:19:17Speaker 1: the people notice that I'm doing that whatever, And plus
- 1:19:21Speaker 1: you know, it's kind of just like, you know, it's
- 1:19:23Speaker 1: funny in my mind. It's kind of like for the
- 1:19:24Speaker 1: people that have like a bad idea about it, it's
- 1:19:26Speaker 1: like if you start realizing you like all these dudes
- 1:19:28Speaker 1: I'm putting on there, it's like it's almost kind of
- 1:19:31Speaker 1: like I'm trolling them, you know what I'm saying, These
- 1:19:33Speaker 1: all the Gnostic Saints, but yet you should on the
- 1:19:35Speaker 1: OTO and you fucking enjoy these people, and it's just
- 1:19:38Speaker 1: funny to me.
- 1:19:40Speaker 2: So but no, I do do a lot of that.
- 1:19:42Speaker 1: So I have like a solo Gianna's Keppler show that
- 1:19:45Speaker 1: I'm gonna be working on. One thing I will be
- 1:19:48Speaker 1: covering soon. If some people are interested in like actual
- 1:19:51Speaker 1: video stuff. I have been to under Maya Park that
- 1:19:54Speaker 1: was in the Bronx and it's like a cult stuff
- 1:19:57Speaker 1: behind it, a lot of architectures, some really cool stuff.
- 1:20:00Speaker 2: I did a lot of filming and I got a
- 1:20:02Speaker 2: lot of drone work.
- 1:20:03Speaker 1: I'm gonna put that out soon and me of the
- 1:20:05Speaker 1: other Rejects, we'll cover some of the symbolism and you
- 1:20:08Speaker 1: know just pointed out and even Corol Castle in Florida,
- 1:20:10Speaker 1: I've been too recently and I got a bunch of
- 1:20:12Speaker 1: footage from there. We should be showing you like the
- 1:20:15Speaker 1: architecture and all that stuff, you know, because I do
- 1:20:18Speaker 1: think there's a lot of magic going on in a
- 1:20:21Speaker 1: lot of those megalists and architecture and stuff. I do
- 1:20:25Speaker 1: think when you start looking at how all that stuff works,
- 1:20:29Speaker 1: I think that's another form of magic in a sense.
- 1:20:31Speaker 2: So I cover all sorts of things on the show.
- 1:20:33Speaker 1: So if people are interested, I got that stuff coming up,
- 1:20:35Speaker 1: and it is the Occult Rejects and.
- 1:20:38Speaker 2: That is available on bit shoot, Rumble, YouTube and.

- 1:20:44Speaker 1: on Twitter Live. Sometimes I don't have the live, but
