Modern Pow Wow Season

There are a very large number of people around today, who if you introduce some new idea to them, immediately talk about 'evidence' in order to handle the unknowns (to them) of the idea itself.

'Evidence' is a modern process template element which is a kind of contrived foothold in the chaos of the living Universe... (LOL - and I hope you know from whom I am quoting here).

Human beings are largely losing certain key higher levels of intelligence capacity that they very nearly all captured into the normal human systems not that long ago. Yet, almost no sooner had they acquired these than that they quickly began to 'dis'-acquire them. You see, people are currently running on automatic pilot. Even the seemingly idiosyncratic behaviors, and pet foibles, are not really that - they are forced iterations of behaviors and pretended motivations and joys.

I have placed the video here, so that you can play it while reading...

You will see here and there some people 'seeking sentient alien life' for example - but I say, in the main, human beings today are not themselves sentient any longer.

There is a political struggle which abuses valuable things like science and 'evidence' and skepticism, in order to gain a contrived foothold in the creative and unpredictable mind.

Once you have creativity and unpredictability scaled up into the broader human society, you will then have the chance of noticing alien sentient life. These things are around us all the time. 

The apparent problem of traversing distances in light years and greater, and seeming lack of evidence of visitation - whether mechanical or physical visitation, and therefore hard evidence left for such, or some kind of non-physical, perhaps information/data types of ingress upon our world from far away - is due to our relatively inadequately subtle sensitivities and sense perceptions.

have access to, and influence in other worlds

And what I mean is not that there are no obvious, hard evidence-type, alien beings actually present anywhere, and only some kind of ephemeral or 'subspace,' tenuous 'presences' - but that we cannot even properly tell what is already in front of our eyes now and present to our seven scientifically acknowledged senses.

We have the senses, but we don't use them, and our brains are variously hyper-tuned away from reality towards the commercially-activated and politically-driven fantastical - or down-tuned into perceiving only the grosser ranges of data input.

Reality is about what is actually there - and not what social convention says ought to (only) be there.

Shamans are people who have access to, and influence in... a more subtle world.

The famous speech or letter of Chief Seattle, discussed by the historical writer Albert Furtwangler, is looked upon skeptically today on account of the many variations of it. This speech appears to make highly prescient statements about today's world. The fact remains though that a speech was given by Chief Seattle in 1854 and there are peculiarities about the text which extremely knowledgeable people about the English language and language construction generally, will tell you have to do with someone's unique, personal genius.

In other words, even if the original reporter were heavily editing the speech in order to make contemporary sense, nevertheless he was capturing someone else's unique ideas - because those ideas are not part of outward modern cultural systems at all, and to some extent the Shamanic turn-of-phrase style reflects this.

But you see, Shamanic presence is always part of inward human cultural systems - everywhere, at every time.

It is not easy to find a genuine Shaman, as opposed to someone who dresses like caricatures of them or like cultural expectations about them. 

Shaman not only have access to, remember, but have influence in... If you find them, they can change your world. They can change the world.

The New Spring Tide...

I was going to do a post about the Pow Wow season - which happens around now, around Spring.

The Pow Wow season, although those words are from Native American languages, goes on around the whole world because there are shamanic cultures spread everywhere.

All shaman know each other. And they all speak the same language.

Humphrey Bogart was a shaman. And when he played Sam Spade, he was showing his shamanic powers. Power, is energy into mechanical balance.

Power ebbs and flows - it is a re-current path. Decline and re-growth.

There is a certain power to fantasy that walks unrecognized in the waking world. 

I will do the post about 'Pow Wows' that I was going to, later on.

I don't think I personally have Native America blood although we did have an ancestral individual in America called 'Nancy' Ward and she is recorded as 'Nanyehi' Ward. The idea that there is a 'John Walker' connection, rather than 'Ward' - a point that some people raise - is due to the fact that all of us Scots/Irish Wards have the nickname 'John Walker' and we are known for literally doing a lot of walking. Marching backwards and forwards to Khartoum, for instance! The surname 'Ward' is also a coverall for 'other things' I must tell you. As I have said here before, I am the first male son in our family for centuries who hasn't been in any active service in the military. I have lived in hot war zones, though.

Although we believe we live in this 'modern' urban culture, with the latest technology and all kinds of 'civilized' ways that we claim to have, the reality is quite another thing.

You can go into any major city these days and witness the night culture, the street people, those without formal dwellings, predators, victims, the vulnerable. 

Money gets victimized and murdered too! Why are we just fixated on the simple murders of people when behind it all, there are vastly more significant hidden crimes that lead to the more obvious outward violence to life and limb.

When money dies, where does it go? Does it die and go to dollar heaven?

Can it return from the dead?

Can it be trapped, lying dormant in some basement somewhere... Awaiting the money detective to come and liberate it.

Darren Diamond never is as alive as when he spends his very own last hundred on a bottle of Bourbon and turns his mind to the problem that just walked into his office - the problem that spells 'where is the next hundred?' Not where is the next hundred coming from - it comes from wherever it is, Darren knows how to get it; he just needs to know where it literally is.

Up until very recently, governments around the world and their accountants and various other hanging-on parasites, killed off the cash and sucked the life out of everything that could make money.

Next month the interest rates go up. And everything starts to change. The rain is beginning to fall, and the waters will rise.

The Euphemisms

I am very pleased - not 'proud;' proud isn't the right word for it - that I was a private student of Paul Ritter when he was alive.

You may not know who Paul Ritter was, but let me give it some context - the former Prime Minister of Australia, the staggering genius Paul Keating, as well as his nemesis Piers Akerman the journalist, would immediately know who you are talking about when you say 'Paul Ritter.'

Man wearing bow tie (giggle)
Brilliant, brilliant, psychologist

Paul Ritter was a trained Psychoanalyst of the 'European School' (which is a Federation now or 'Institute' form or organization which covers the field of trained people with roots back to Jung and Freud and Rank and Adler). This does not appear in his biog in Wikipedia but it is the case all the same. What does appear is the narrative that Paul Ritter was 'devoted' to the infamous Wilhelm Reich and that Reich appeared to suggest Ritter had taken the ideas of Reich down a different path. Well, I mean what's new about that kind of dialectic between psychoanalysts?! LOL

I don't think he was devoted to Wilhelm Reich or his ideas particularly. Ritter possessed an abundance of knowledge about many people's ideas and he himself was much more well-known as an architect and engineer and town planner than as a psychoanalyst in any case.

But he was a psychoanalyst and a very good one.

There are not too many people who know that it is Paul Ritter's name that was on one of the Twin Tower Buildings' foundation stones...

Now there is another Paul Ritter, who is an actor who played a small role in the Bond flick Quantum of Solace. I don't know that guy... I hardly recall having seen him in the movie. I have seen Lee Pace though, who might play the next Bond...

Anyway. 

So, the point here is that there are many people, ideas, even things, that are quite obscure to the public, and have never been pushed forward into the public eye.

What you will read about Wilhelm Reich, a major figure of psychoanalysis along with the more well-know luminaries of the field, is that some of his ideas were 'crackpot.' Or in fact, that he was a crackpot, or that towards the end of his life he became a crackpot.

It ought not to make any difference to you what the truth of it all was or may have been, because this is not a two-way discussion we are having here - I am writing this Blog, and there is virtually never any open public responses to it. And so, I am just preaching away, to no one in particular, in my own corner of the Universe, unknown, like Ritter, unseen, but at least, not attempting very often to 'make it rain' via some 'cloudbuster' contraption that I am aiming up at the sky.

Peter Reich, Wilhelm Reich's son, was interviewed once and he casually mentioned that when he saw the movie 'Star Wars' at the part where they introduced Obiwan, he felt ripped off because that was his father they appeared to be depicting.

You have to watch out for aristocrats - when they use words like 'Bohemian' they don't mean people who have to live out in the streets and are homeless.

"Setting The Agenda"

Nobody who reads a lot of newspapers and scans the global media can have failed to observe how much 'follow the rabbit' is going on at the moment.

It used to be that the media prided itself like the Devil himself, in 'setting the agenda.'

Now, at least to my eye, the agenda has become like the rickety old English club scene with the same items on the menu day in and day out.

'The Day the Music Died.' Don McLean.

Design is about real knowledge,
of shapes and corners and aspect ratio
and things like that

Well this is more or less the day the media died.

What we need to signify it in the common mind as having actually happened for real, is some kind of 'event' or incident - almost an act of god, if you will.

So what are 'the big stories' right now? Mosul - the defeat of ISIS there, maybe. Trump, well, Trump anything. Protests against Trump, Washington correspondents' function, Hollywood using the Oscars against Trump. Trump Trump Trump.

That's not 'agenda.'

Agenda is tax cuts and the stock market going through the roof.

Agenda is scalability.

Agenda is how to leverage the current amazing turnaround in 'optimism' as far as equities are concerned, and 'get in' maybe by some back-door as the Dow runs away from everyone accept the Fed, basically, which was 'holding paper' when everyone else claimed it had a 'poor Balance Sheet.' 

The Fed doesn't have a 'Balance Sheet.' (Read that with a scoffing voice). It has power and control. It doesn't need a 'Balance Sheet.'

The Fed is right now selling dollars and cleaning up. Saudi Aramco is pretending it is going to sell equity in itself... What a laugh. Saudi Arabia is so broke going forward it doesn't matter. 75% illiteracy and 70% single commodity-led GDP. Broke. Dead. Finito la musica. Gone, baby.

All of these people who have played the 'I have more cash than you and so I can fly to the Moon' lunacy for decades are stuck with the fact that there simply is no such thing as 'diversifying an economy away from oil,' now that oil has run its race forever and nobody cared a lot earlier. It's all too late now.

And superb confection is about how to create function
out of form and substance

Today's technology is utterly deflationary and so what we are looking at here, is a massive swathe of losses about to be realized absolutely everywhere - except in US companies of course, for no absolutely good reason, and I do mean AMERICAN companies, not just US listings.

So how can you short London properties...

There's nothing quite like a Bear Market to create this snowballing effect of panic and loss and fire sales. The US Dollar will probably drop at least enough to savage the Euro economy into severe social panic and no doubt violence. The Chinese will squeal at this but to no avail. Serves them right.

Interest rates will go up. 

The GBP is a fantasy-fiction currency and so it will likely go up as the UK government monkeys around basically practicing self-interested fraud with no one to stop it now that it has thought about stepping out of European supervision of whatever it does. They haven't realized the silver lining to their 'cloud' of having to leave what they all thought was a bigger gravy train of fraud against taxpayers, namely the Euro-zone and the Euro (currency).

You watch as the British politicians suddenly wake up to the benefits of cheating on their own National Currency Balance Sheet.

The Euro is utterly doomed and so is the Euro-zone but whether any of the Zombies there will do anything about it I seriously doubt.

Russia? They must be laughing all the way to the gold vaults.

As you know I don't give out exact 'recommendations' here because I'm assuming not a lot of you have any money to go take positions in anything. But that is all right too. Being forewarned is being fore-armed, and, as you all know, from having read Baldassare Castiglione and his Art of the Courtier or whatever it's called: 'the principal profession of the courtesan is the profession of arms...'

And thus at least, you are all now armed, and not unable to 'make war' as it were. Armed with knowledge. And that is all you need and all it takes. And a bit of patience like the skilled fisherman.

James Dumb, not James Bond

I am hoping, this will be the very last 'spy-tale' post for a while. Things are going very well in spook-land, and as you know, these kinds of things thrive on quietness and 'nothing going on.'

The fact is, it would be slightly remiss of me to leave you all without some exactitude in understanding what has been going on. Personally, if I were you, I wouldn't worry all that much about people looking into your communications - the thing cuts both ways, and apparently, 'they' haven't even worked that out yet... There is no indication in the bought-for media that anyone has.

Our friend Lee, giving out 'hate Trump' pamphlets

Anyway, back to the main matter here: I would like you to recall the kidnapping by Hezbollah in 1984, of Lieutenant Colonel William Francis Buckley. He was subsequently held, tortured for 15 months and died.

Islamic Jihad claimed responsibility for his death.

More recently, in 2011, an individual, one 'Manssor Arbabsiar' was apprehended in the middle of what appeared to Intelligence as a plot to assassinate the then Saudi Ambassador to the United States, Adel al-Jubeir in New York - who is now Saudi Foreign Minister under King Salman. Arbabsiar had engaged some members of the Mexican Los Zetas drug cartel to kill al-Jubeir.

Hezbollah funds itself through its control of Bekaa Valley heroin. And drug cartels in Mexico have had relationships with Middle Eastern and Eastern European drugs controllers in the past. To say that 'security' is a problem in Mexico is putting things mildly, and when you keep in view little incidents such as the temporary 'theft' of Iridium-192 in 2015, and the ease with which false ID papers can be procured in Mexico - you have a matter that has to be treated seriously by security officials and strategists.

Our friend Lee in Russia

I don't really need to make a lot of gratuitous remarks about judges whose motivations are less than entirely obvious, or whether they should be made to watch videos of the torture of Buckley and others - but I will probably end by echoing what Roger Stone recently said about ex-CIA chief Brennan, namely that he was a Communist from way back. It sounds like a REALLY STUPID thing to say in the modern era, post-the Cold War and post-the Soviet Union, but what he means is not 'Soviet' Communist, but academic Marxist-Leninist social and political organization theory 'Communist' and who had some formal affiliation with organized groups of this ilk. Some people call them 'Neo-Marxists.'

There is a saying 'someone convinced against his will remains unconvinced still.' And I am simply not interested any longer in trying to 'convince' anyone of anything.

I just stated the fact that Willam Buckley was really horribly tortured. What you make of it is up to you. And, hopefully this will be the last of these kinds of posts for a while. 

And, finally our friend Lee, at a 'gathering momentum' never Trump rally
