Yo Team o sane, reverent beings!
at this dangerous delusional beautiful time…
where we so want to practice spiraling out of all ensnaring polarity, cultivating liberating responses to supplant imprisoning reactions…
practicing Sufi Aikido Language Craft...
(And to all those who made/make tangible contributions to my well-being, while navigating customized Underworld - thank you…
I still travel with future thank you notes for past super-appreciated kindness… All thank yous have been telepathically sent. Tangible specificity to follow in the undulating unfurling of now. Generosity is supporting me in weaving myself together…
Thank you thank you in perpetuity!)

When we fall to our knees in the humility of asking for h e l p!!!!- Trickster enters the dance...
&
Never has Time more called for Trickster -
the bringer of powerful magic in dangerous times.
Trickster Medicine be the sine qua non of all dedications because it renders all dedications effective.
I am swooshing in Jamaica, this week, spending much time in wondrous (stormy, swirling New Moon Pisces) Caribbean,
from whence will convene Trickster Training Council tonight. (Well not in the Sea, but right above.)
Below is what I just sent to the enrolled Tricksters,
see if the encouragements magnetize a hum to join us for tonight,
Autonomy is a sacrament.
And tis good to have a team to co-navigate and engage in reciprocal encouraging blessing.
We convene every Monday Night (and recorded for those who don’t make the live call, & have fun Facebook page just for us, and access to all past archives) via phone or web (audio only -
invisible be good for spirits) @9 pm est/6pm pst
People can and do enroll at any time,
Many primarily listen, (audible participation waxes and wanes) and all are welcome to e-mail during call, and chime in with conundrum, query blessing. We are all experimenting with everything, that the form serve the dedication.
Usually we offer 3 months for $200,
But because now is so cuckoo, the more the merrier the magic!
Let’s try:
$72 (quintile!) for one month,
and if you want more,
we apply that $72 to the 3 months...
From one of our current wonderful Trickster Council members:
"Monday evenings are one of the best things in my life. I love them.
The councils give me hope and courage in those times when the crap that's in the field is really loud and always make me grin. And laugh aloud. I so appreciate the magick of it all. Thank you. Thank you."
All Power to the Imagination!
“Imagination lays the tracks
for the Reality Train to follow”
Let’s inhale back our responsibility
for dreaming the desirable world into being…
Mars, exalted in Capricorn,
at 5 Capricorn 55,
the spooky initiatory degree:
“Ten logs lie in front of an archway,
leading to Darker Woods-
the necessity of being ritually prepared.”
Truly. This is the mythological forecast.
Let’s prepare…
Mars exactly quintiles Neptune (really 0a00)
at 17Pisces55!- at what I call
the Eleusynian Mysteries degree,
where everyone saw, in a shared Vision,
Persephone, having gone down a maiden –
emerging an initiated Queen:
“In a gigantic tent Villagers
witness a spectacular performance.”
Votive plaque depicting elements of the Eleusinian Mysteries,
discovered in the sanctuary at Eleusis (mid-4th century BC)
Neptune thus taps us into the resonant history
of humans collectively animating
a desirable Vision.
Such an encouraging boon.
All that we imagine together tonight-
Mars will animate!
Aligning with this choreography,
we can open necessary portals
between imagination and incarnational actuality.

Animating the Metaphoric Thought Forms,
that guide a culture.
*Statue of Liberty,
*Goddess Pacifica…
*Our Customized Liberating Compassionate Trickster,
syncretized from a spicy amalgam of all with which
we’ve ever felt aesthetically kinned.
(Imagine others!)
So to prepare-
a daily dose of cleansing vastness –
let’s take 6 breaths – telepathically cahooting.
With each breath we are inhaling
our Liberating Imagination,
and with each exhale
let’s waft blessings to all beings.
East, North, West, South, Below, Above…
Feeling better already –
back in the participatory flow…
Conniption fits dissolving,
We are ready for
Joyously rededicating to Dreams
(in Jamaica-ya mon…)
on this New Moon in Pisces
and Story-Craft:
A Colleague: Here’s a rare Trickster moment
of someone, Anand Giridharadas,
tapping into the actual story of now,
and taking on the imprisoning story narratives,
and faux narrators (cons.)
Dementors be so busy with demented dirty tricks –
time for Liberating Trickster to disrupt the inauthentic…
So in the midst of such a skullduggery storm,
of finite snares for our infinite envisioning…
We have one Coyote strategy:
of observing humans laying traps,
following behind, digging up, and springing those traps,
and for attitudinal flourish – peeing all over them…
Let’s see ourselves engaged in such
Coyotearian liberating play.
To metabolize the toxins spewed into mass mind,
we may need a visit to the
Underworld Pub of the Hurling Coyote…
Complete de-tox is an underworld spa special this week…
Lets not feed the dementors:
Remembering always,
that the Dementors of Doom-
feed on polarity, vitriol, chaos and strife…
Deep Breath, Melanie Weidner
So we inhale back
our creative complicity with polarity,
and exhale out spirals of liberating levity
(no air in this chart)
This is a cool evolutionary challenge….
to not be “triggered” –
because that would make us a gun.
Truly, having been humbled,
by being caught by my/our own tar baby,
tangled by conniption fits induced by the
atmosphere of impositional delusion —
Let us be all the more delighted
to gather in reciprocal encouraging blessing
with the likes of ourselves.
We are all in this Dream Together
Time for dedication to our allegiance
to the collective, letting Neptune dissolve
all human impositions of false boundaries,
A new facebook friend writes:
“I was so lucky to attend a multi-cultural school in middle school
in Paris when I was growing up where I made friends for life from
all over the world and all walks of life who spoke many different
languages (many of us were not just bilingual but trilingual) and
came from socio-economic backgrounds that varied from
refugee status to film directors kids, and across the
religious spectrum Muslims to Quakers…. We are many of us
still bonded after 45 years…. and share a world view
that is beyond boundaries.
I remember being asked after I moved to Ireland in high school
where I was from and again in the USA when I moved to Seattle at 22,
and I just laughed! Because just like the animals and the trees know,
there are no country borders and there are no nationalities….”
Sunday’s New Moon was at 4+ Pisces –
“a warm-hearted church social.”
So it behooves us to waft the desirable
into the memosphere:
Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers
Re all candidates,
but let’s honor Bernie and Liz for the moment:
Let’s see them dancing, Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers,
switching back and forth…tis a good vision-
that Venus wafts into the memosphere,
above the fractious frey of feist & swagger.
Break the spell and re-direct the attention
(not worship the spell, by over-staying)-
(like dog-training) Hey! over here-
to the desirable vision humming in all hearts..
Tis a deft and discerning art we are crafting.
We dust off all our Trickster literalized metaphors
(the essence of ritual magic)
In our Magic Back-pack – is all we need,
all our considerable skills be herein…
Tis a vast back-pack, opening into stellar space.
The first thing we pull out is our
Magic Mirror (Mirror*Window*Door)
and way down deep,
we pull out our bag of Liberating Lightning!
To set free any circle into a spiral…
To spiral forth Liberating Blessing
into the Memosphere…
Harumphitude Composter (with a special attachment
for metabolizing conniption fits – a natural response
to having a bag thrown over one’s head.)
Lets be un-provocable calm – yet still spicy.
Tis a learning curve, in which the provocation increases.

The Taoist Rain Bringer
(To react is not free, to cultivate ever-expanding repertoire
of responses is to align with Nature’s Evolutionary Genius,
aka “Trickster!)
Co-Operators are standing by!
Especially animated tonight!
Awaiting invocation..
Come on in Eris! To blow the curtains inward-
letting fresh wind of democratic animism-
swoosh away all corruption…
