Celtic mythology associates this with the five days out of time, a pentacle, measured in pagan britain by the lighting of autumnal fires on halloween and bonfire night, representing connection with the spirit world and the death of totalitarian rule, respectively; a desire for self-rule so that we may pursue spiritualism unhindered, and the extent to which it takes and leads us, and how this is such a different way of being than the totalitarian can permit to be lived openly, thus the need for secret folk religions and secret societies whose truing surmount to the same thing; human evolution.

40 hour working week in britain. 5 days and then you can have two days to rest. The numbers gridding us into a set rhythmic cycle which detaches us from organic natural connection with the galactic cycles. We are forced outside of the comfort zone by exploitation games played by powerful governors and those who play the governors. But for why?

I have been accused of starting a Cult. I intend to do no such thing. My marketing strategy is something which helps verify the reality of the mystical quality of my writings. It is upon this which people fear a cult may be founded.

I am a Shaman. I am a historic researcher specialising in the progress of Humanity since the last massive scale world war which threw us all back to the stone-age, and the remnants of the 'war of/on hate’ permeate to this day through human societies.

Evidence of the global annihilation war and our rise since then. The deserts were placed by technologies we do not have any more, on top of the site of thermonuclear devices, which fused the earth into a type of glass we have only reproduced by nuclear bomb testing. That every great desert has this type of high fusion glass beneath it, the stuff of legends because it contains A Great Truth of our human experience and situation, and the current global background radiation, are having an affect on our evolution.
We "Do or we Do Not do. There is no Try.” Master Yoda

Humans are attempting to overcome self-deafer. One method is development of a detachment from emotions, another is detachment from mind, another is detachment from self. There are perhaps others. All paths (nihilism, spirituality, religion, confusion, other) are aspects of these core paths; angels gridding infrastructure.*

The other path is to Observe and collate observed data. Spiritist experience it as a reality and the multi-cultural resource and knowledge base verifies lived experiences. Such data is the realm of shamanism, whatever other dimensions are being
Science predominates and is the domain only if the material dimension. It advances because of warfare and the war economy which revolves around the gambling operation of usury based money. Non-usury based monetary systems do not fund war sciences which computers, light-bulbs and heart-monitor machines in hospitals are an extension of.
We need All of this and so far we are not ready as a species to let go entirely of one aspect of it so as to focus on the others. Within the 3d pentacle of the bandwidth all of the above exists in, are humans progressing steadily and developing a deepening comprehension of What Is Life.

Such example of my writing, a personal understanding of the world view,  gives you an example of why people accuse me of trying to start a cult. You read it, you enjoyed it, you could see where I was coming from, and you could see that these and similar ideas developed further would be accessible through more of my writing, or if not me then similar writers. Being a writer and a spirit medium, other writers ghost write through me. This is a secret of Thoth, the Scribe, and living that through many generations as a way of life, I have got to this stage, to enjoy the demonic machines the medieval scryers foretold humans would become enslaved to.
It is a double edged sword and I thank the people who accuse me of trying to start a cult, for giving me a self-promotion tip. Now give me a dollar.


*multi-dimensional math machine deities controlling humans; archons

snakeappletree is a moniker that was given me by an egyptian scribe who wrote my name in hieroglyphs. I studied egyptology a lot and made my own translations, understood that shamen wrote this and I understood what they were doing. I studied their teachings. I followed the roots of their tradition to Assyria, its mutation into Babylon (Alpha Beta); Egypt being letter E is the 5th therefore the pentacle civilisation, and it still exists today. The studies of the priesthoods teachings taught me who I am. My own mathematical Archonic harmonic. I studied resonance with music machines and crystals for the light-body / water-body interaction. I discovered how harmonics resonate through time and space because self-balanced, self harmonic entities vibrate freely, and chime. My chime is snake apple tree this moniker impacts on the pre-programmed, ready to be exploited, popular mindset because these symbols are deeply embedded into the psyche and people respond t them exactly how they have been programmed to respond to them by people who know what they are doing much more than most people. To recognise that this is happening is an intelligence test. Writing about it makes these writings dangerous. Especially within the context of evolution and social cultures being engineered by key individuals exploiting systems which humans are enslaved to so as to play this game upon them.

I can read the symbols. I am a scribe. I remember back through the incarnations to many experiences and by resonance I connect with others on the harmonic so as to witness, remember, and connect with the aware minds as a telepathic bond, to all of those who through many lifetimes I have connected. I sound like an arrogant god to write this, but the egyptian priests, the sorcerer kings, the far seers, the pharaoh, were always accused of being arrogant gods. I am of a bloodline noted for its abilities and its connection with archons. We all are and we are all becoming interbred which is a good thing although we are all, also, trying to maintain a purity of pure forms, because we do not want to lose the abilities humans carry in our genes which some day will become more important to human evolutionary development when the time is right for them to flower. Some families have done this for thousands of generations, some are emerging from the weave of potentials in the

A book was started to map the development of some of these families, it is an important book with multiple religions based around it. Bible, (the Beta version obviously survived and intended for Babylon), the C version (Constantinople, constant in the people, the con-job, the ), the Q’ran, (‘whole cauldron Way [Entering] ‘ of Ra manifest-of-earth’) There are hidden teachings in language which take a scribe to translate, an educated member of the priesthood.

I traced the priesthoods influence on south american civilisations, the development of the priesthood in its new form until the rigidity of its stepped focus drew its polarity the reptilian chaos which took grip of its society, and it fell. The next generation of genuine spirituals walked away from it entirely. Next the remnants of the teaching spread into the north americas where they influenced the north american / canadian indian cultures. There is also that China follows the same patterns, uses the same symbols, connects with it.

There is archaeological evidence of everything I have written here. This is verifiable. As a writer and a dad I do not have time to retrieve bookmarked links and add them to an appendix, which as a professional historian I would be expected to. All of the data i available. What is not, are the notes i have made tracing my studies into my understanding as a member of the priesthood. I have written about that on blogs.

What I discovered is a version of history and the multi-cultural symbols relating to the important information which has survived history through many destructive wars. The teachings of those groups connect with European masonry and teaching schools as much as russian and european and scandanavian tribal groups prior to christianity destroying much of the knowledge base. The knowledge base is retrievable by reliving memory of it through past life, which requires teachings, which have been sacred or secret teachings because people are afraid of that which they are not yet ready to understand. History has a lesson of killing its socrates and healers, its zero chiefs and far seers. the moniker snakeappletree has been hooked into that.

I am a light healer and I have studied with the best. snake means healer, it means energy wave; it is what i am made of, my specialism. It is music, it is light, it is smiling hearts synaesthetically seen from taking sacred spirit guides, allies, to help my personal development, shamanic healing tools mushrooms and saliva, which are illegal in cultures which repress evolution, repress shamanism, repress human development and the growth of a shamanic global culture networking and rising humanity above the control grip of the evil archons who are gridding us into their control games through structured governmental systems and military policing leading to war.  The beast on Ishtar’s leash.

This is not a cult and it is not a secret society. It is publicly accessible and its purpose is good; to decondition people, to educate people, to explore ideas, to discuss my research as an historian, to study being a scribe, and related topics. 

I am also networking as a businessman attempting to survive the collapsing British economy, and a human reaching out hoping for similar people to connect with. I represent a lot of cultural groups with what I am doing, most of whom I have not mentioned here. 

Dredlocks

Dredlocks

I am consistently stopped by British police “on suspicion of” because I have dredlocks. On multiple occasions, their accusations of my being witnessed shoplifting have been thwarted by requesting CCTV as evidence that I went nowhere near the shop in question on that day. They always back down because they know they are lying. It is not the police as an institution however it is a very common attitude amongst them to behave that way to such extent I do question if this is a part of their training; hassle the ones of us who stand out by looking different. It might simply be because the media has brainwashed them; Robert Marley had dredlocks and he smoked dope ergo I smoke dope because I have dredlocks. Pirate Jack had dredlocks and he is a pirate ergo I am a pirate because I have dredlocks. As a person with a higher than average IQ, I can see the fallacy of their argument.

I am called a non-conformist.
I am called anti-authoritarian.

I do not believe I am either of these things. 

I simply ask, conform to what convention? Social Normality on a global scale as I am one of the people of the planet, verses a minority cult which operate its totalitarian regime unlawfully and illegally in Britain, given the Human Rights Act is established to tell agents of corporations how they are meant to act (behave). My conforming to social normality involves that I am genuinely a law abiding, peace-loving person. Anything beyond that is a use of Trickery involving the expectations that I should conform to some system to which nobody has been educated, other than it is controlled by fear, example of being harassed, repressed, intimidated and prejudiced against; which is illegal on the part of the persecutor no matter what they do for a money job and their official role in society. I do not have to conform to the conventions of a job which I am not contracted to conform to. Individuals and conspirators involved in persecuting me from their official capacity are actively in neglect of duty / misconduct in public office, and therefore are not a genuine authority. I am not a fool, I can tell the difference between the two things; I do respect genuine authority. In real life, respect is earned, it is not a given, it is not something that can be forcibly taken.

I have experienced the same prejudice from many people in many levels of society. For example, the business training sessions where I have been told that my hair style “will go against me.” This is the purpose of this blog, on and for the record. I run my business from behind the internet, using photo's from photo shoots using myself as a professional model, I am qualified at degree level in Arts so doing so is an aspect of my professional practice. I could be anybody, using any model, to promote my business.

Within Britain, there is a repressive attitude which criminally persecutes those who stand out. Were I black they would not dare. Were I gay they would not dare. Were I female they would not dare. Were I religious they would not dare. That they judge me on appearances is ipso facto an example of how petty and pathetic these people are. It is an example of their inability to engage with reality in a real way; they are living in a delusional state. I can prove it, as follows;

I am a public figure of some level of fame, I am an internet personality. The website statistical data for how many people log onto my websites, read my blogs, enjoy my music, poetry, art, etc; verifies this as a fact. I am a media personality. My dredlocks are a successful marketing strategy. 

Does it work as a necessary factor for my job role? Yes it does. The same people who have written and spoken that they “like my dredlocks!” are also the same people who have in the past few years, donated to me hardware to the sum value equivalent to several thousand pounds, to further my career. They are the same people who have given me bursaries to the sum of several thousand pounds to further my training and therefore enhance my career, opening possibilities to me which would not otherwise have existed; such as financial possibilities for the growth and development of my for-profit company. A percentage of any profit I do make feeds back into the British economy as well as into the more ethical global economy. 

I can simply state for a fact that my dredlocks have resulted in stimulation and growth of the economy which in a time of economic crisis is a valuable asset to the nation. If I did not have dredlocks, none of that would have been possible. Accepting the systematic harassment is unfortunately a part of the lifestyle.

Only a few of those people who have helped me with this actually reside in Britain. Most of them are international based which furthers my point that the British mindset is closed and repressive. This is why my role in society is so valuable; I represent freedom in the eyes of other people who also feel repressed. Society needs to heal and this simple factor is a part of that healing process. We need to feel free or we cannot thrive.

I have not mentioned fully in this blog how dreadlocks are the traditional symbol for Celtic shamen and spiritualists. That is the topic for another blog much closer to my heart deserving of more in-depth exploration. I have also not mentioned how many females find me drop-dead sexually attractive simply because of what my hair represents to them and what I look like because of a roots cultural hairstyle.

I am looking into insuring my dreds against damage on the basis that they are integral to my companies future financial success. I have been threatened by the uk police that they have an ability to unlawfully imprison me and cut my hair off, which since it would damage my business and I do not break any laws, would put me in a situation of being able to sue the police for corporate damages as well as playing the mental-emotional abuse card, given how much my allegedly egotistic self-image relies on dreadlocks as my comfort zone and a coping mechanism necessary for dealing with the world (as proved and as backed up by previous counseling sessions resulting in, quote “...is not in need of psychiatric counseling” unquote); an unfortunate possibility which is something no sane person wants to enter into. Now that you have read this blog, you have pierced beyond the skin-deep to see that it might not be ego that drives me after all.

weaving

3 days work, my first rag-rug

this is the rough side

Time away from staring at the computer, pursuing wholesome, earthy, natural creative endeavors. I love weaving. It is therapeutic. Cotton rag-weave feels good to be working with. Pure, clean, sensual. 

I am certain that a lot of this focus and energy comes from developing a Sorcerer's retinue for Sorcerers of Ur-Turuk as much as from the galactic alignment at the moment (virgo). 

Contemplating that Humans developed weaving before we harnessed fire. A loom can be portable; two poles with pegs on them tied to whatever suits at the time. Next step; braiding celtic knotwork.

SOUT2

See HERE for a review and introduction to Graham Bottley / Arion Games Classic RPG.
The following is my own manuscript.

City Aesthetic

In my imagination, my version of Ur-Turuk, the city I sculpt with my mind; all of the buildings are adobe (sun-baked or oven-baked mud brick) and most of them are between three and five stories high. To augment this height there are many buttresses between buildings, which usually have an alleyway between them on at least two sides. It is urban and this architectural type allows for many exciting adventures of rooftop chases and sneaking around at night.

The buildings are by and large based on square and rectangular shapes, with the exception of those which are round shapes, often with larger bases. Wherever possible, walls are extended upward on top of lower story walls or support pillars; pillars rather than walls are commonplace on upper floors which permits extended height, often with wattle & daub walls or simple trellis between pillars. These are often of elaborate decorative designs with sculptural features worked into trellis permitting exciting range of window shapes and air-vents. The typical arrangement for a block of buildings is ideally ziggurat; however with additional support pillars, buttresses and extensions growing over generations, many of the ziggurats have become immersed into a less regular structure; the city grows organically in accordance with simple mathematical principles.

After many generations it is the public road-ways which mark out the negative space between dwellings. So many of the chambers are unoccupied that their crumbling parchment deeds are the type of treasure urban folks seek only when in fear of the city militia acting as bailiffs. It is rumoured that a significant percentage of the population are of no fixed abode and squatting; the Dust is omnipotent and yet invisible here. Crawl-ways and escape routes are said to outnumber walls, doors and blockades. The citizens of Ur-Turuk must think vertically as well as horizontally in orientating themselves. This is why a city Guide is necessary for those not born or experienced here. The ceilings are typically high to allow air-conditions and mind-space, tall enough that you could not touch them by jumping and reaching up with your fingertips stretched to the limits.

The age of the city is such that many walk-ways have been bashed through between rooms and corridors, giving them an irregular shape and feel. It is something of a maze of gantry's and chambers on several stories. City is arranged into blocks, with wider spaces between. Obviously arches are common and often form the foundation of walk-ways on the layer above. Much of the lower area's are in the shade; necessary in the summer heat. Architectural designs exploit this, with trellis ceilings on which plants grow being a very common courtyard and upper story feature. A sort of inside-outside feel to cool and air rooms especially those with pillars and low-ledges for walls.

Mud is easy to sculpt and paint; there are many hand-crafted decorative adornments on the walls, so that most of them, due to aesthetic and age, are smoothed with rounded corners. Alcoves are a common feature; ledges, shelves and shrines. Domes are another common feature, providing support for the extended tiers of upper floor buildings and balancing the air within a space.

Wood is the second most commonplace building material. Ledges, walk-ways, walls, steps, stairs and ladders, overhangs, lean-to's, doors where there are actual doors and not dust-sheets. As a sprawl, Ur-Turuk resembles the eastern cities of dream, resplendent from a thousand and one nights. The taller towers, depending on the size of their base and any buttresses, often stand proudly and much taller, some as many as ten stories high. 

Because of the temperature, stone walls from quarries are rare, much more expensive due to the manpower involved in building them. The adobe buildings have a sense of age and yet incompletedness, often taking many generations to develop their individuality. Comparatively the stone dwellings are planned in advance. Many of these are constructed by hiring suitably knowledgeable wizards to float the rocks into place, or to draw the building up from below the dusty ground, fashioned of bedrock. It is preferable than the scale and man-power of alternative industries.

There are strong magicks occurring in the city oif Ur-Turuk which shapes the place more than anything, not only in its ever shifting physicality but also emotionally, perceptually, atmospherically, aesthetically, ecologically. In some parts, self-sustaining closed pleasure-gardens while in others, beggars and cut-throats. Some streets are blessed by forgotten Deities while others are avoided by the living ones.

Creating A Brat Pack

Learning this from the .pdf version, staring at a screen impacts on my ability to study and make progress with it. After scrawling notes on envelopes I typed them into a cohesion in the computer. This process inevitably led to making the following copy/past-able lists, for easier reference than scrolling through the rulebook. It also makes it easier to develop multiple characters at the same time, necessary for giving the unit the right feel because they more fluidly compliment one another.

TROUPE

During the three days following unwrapping Sorcerers into my desktop, I came up with the following characters. I am still undecided as to specifically which of these characters I will use when introduced into a game group, this largely depends on what characters the other players bring to the Vanahm.

I keep coming up with ideas and so I have enough spare characters to begin a second troupe or to feature as NPC's in the first. As a gamesmaster I utilize this to the advantage of the story, integrating all of the threads.

I chose not to use the prototype tables, preferring to choose rather than randomly assign statistic values. I can see how useful the tables are for when a GM needs to quick-roll a non-player character. First I wrote the character concept, then I did the Stats, then I did the Perks and Flaws, then I did the Skills. After this was equipping the characters. Finally I am working on the Sorcerers Spells. There is a lot of back-and-fore to integrate the groups skill base and backstory as realistically and believably as a fantasy game can muster. The diversity and intrigue between the group forms the basis of its dynamic; understanding and working with this dynamic is integral for both the Player and the Gamesmaster, so it is kept simple and utilizes easy cliches which can be warped to suit our own needs, bringing Life to the collective.

SOLDIER  male, late teens

- young strong-arm. Picks nose flicks snot, bad personal habit. Always messing about, he fulfills everyone’s need to have somebody to take the piss out of, a necessary social figure.

The Weaver is exceptionally useful in bringing the rest of the group together, with regards the Sorcerers abilities to weave and record data as weaves; flying carpets are scrolls, requiring a library to be large enough to hang many scrolls in; smaller charms something aliken to an americanadian indian dreamcatcher's adorn the residencies rooms and hallways, are window-hangings and doors, are carpets, blankets and ceiling-throws. Artistic scrolls contain imagery appropriate to the particular spell they represent. Colour schemes; sand, tan, indigo, cyan, ochre, umber, black; follow traditional elemental associations. 

...and then it's a toss-up between the following two MAJOR CHARACTER's, one of whom will probably become a Contact for one of the other characters therefore an NPC. The backstory and relationships between the characters has yet to be developed, they are all to be further developed during the course of the adventures.
  

MAJOR CHARACTER mid-20s

- killer, hashashim, ninja assassin, very spiritually dedicated to her discipline which involves use of smoking a herb to achieve inner tranquility necessary to do her job, and for training. She was financially in debt to her dojo, and so instead of repaying her creditors, she discreetly killed them. As such she is, as far as she knows, one of the only two of the students of their master, to have received his teachings. She locked the door of their humble high-walled courtyard and dwellings, and left. After some minor adventure she joined the Wizards retinue.

NOTES:
That the Sorcerer is a Scribe means that his spell-scrolls are hand-painted onto finely woven fabric. These are easily portable and may be stitched into a book. There is a place where Art becomes Magick; and so given that a sorcerers magic dies with him; so too will his finest written works. Whatever is left will be less mystically constructed technical notes, which for many is exactly what the mainstream of magical interest are willing for. The Sorcerer, being intelligent, is aware of this. However his students are capable of copying his masterworks during his lifetime as a part of their own studies and by this means many levels of their knowledge and beauty will survive. Anything else enchanted into these works is of the Sorcerers whim.
Sorcerer wears cyan and indigo baggy hooded rag-weave and lined robe which is light in weight but heavy in defences against elements and blows.  It most certainly contains pockets and the weave contains many patterns and symbols, which are said to change like the night sky. It is by this robe which people recognize and remember the Sorcerer.





When creating a sorcerer, I follow the associations of the Hermetic tradition of elements.

Fire - action and passions
Earth - the body
Water - emotions
Air - knowledge

Therefore the types of magic a sorcerer specializes in, give a lot of information to his nature; conversely, to those who might not be aware the character is a sorcerer, his personality gives insight into his abilities. I utilize this in my internal referencing system socially and as a counsellor specializing in Jungian archetypes. My own personal data with this regard is Chinese Year of the Fire Snake and analytical Virgo the water-balancer which is actually an earth sign.

I found this during a google search. The dancer is called Elena Turuk. It is part of the Ma'jiq.
