Some months ago I wrote an entry about why it was important for me to run: fitness and meditation – both, which play into my mental, physical and spiritual well-being. I am not a health freak by any stretch, and there’s a lot I could do better. But on a very basic level, I believe that [...]

I was fascinated by a series of photos (from Danish newspaper, Politiken) that I want to share: These are Spanish Catholic lodges (no Masonic relation), who celebrate Easter in a Good Friday procession wearing hooded robes and carrying candles. The sample below is from Zamora in Northern Spain, where the members of Santisimo Cristo de [...]

I have been interested in Tarot for a long time, but in recent years I have kicked it up a notch when I joined BOTA, Builders of the Adytum. As it happened, I was recently given the opportunity to further expand my studies as Bro JMD developed a PDF-course focussing on the Jean Noblet Tarot [...]

As the old year winds down, I already have my mind half way into the new. So here are some of the Masonic stuff I intend to get involved in:
Dublin: We’re still here, and I still haven’t had a proper run-in with Irish freemasonry. I want to see a degree, with a candidate; preferably all [...]

Recently I started running for the first time in my life, and it immediately became a goal to run a marathon. I have been running for a good month now, and the current goal is to do 13 km (approximately 1/4 marathon), while we’re still in California (we have a move to Dublin, Ireland coming [...]

(Well, I missed the planned second part of this series, but I’ll get around to that one sooner or later.)
Yesterday I had the tatoo done, and it was a good experience. I had communicated with the artist, Gordon, but I hadn’t actually seen any artwork, so that was pretty exciting. When I saw the illustration [...]

Yeah, I’m finally getting my tatoo. I had some internal back and forth on what to get, where it should go, the timing etc. But last year I made the decision to get it done, and while here in California, I finally came to the conclusion that I should stop agonising over the exact image, [...]

Last night I had my first experience with lucid dreaming, something that I had been wanting to try since watching Richard Linklaters groovy animated feature, Waking Life. I tried the “scientific” approach last spring, following Stephen LaBerge’s book, Exploring the World of Lucid Dreaming, but lost control over my sleeping hours when our baby boy [...]

Last year I decided to pick up a correspondence course based on Tarot, a “society” created by Paul Foster Case, called BOTA, Builders of the Adytum. You basically pay a monthly fee to subscribe to a series of lessons, a few pages of text per week; you can pause at any time and pick [...]
