Rudolf Steiner said that when a person dies, the configuration of stars at that moment remains as an imprint causing the soul to try to enter into the same configuration upon reincarnation. This idea became a Rosetta Stone for research into the mysteries of karma and reincarnation as revealed by a study of the stars.
Today is day number 13 for me on the "Corridor of Amity," and since 13 is my lucky number, it seems a fitting day for me to log in a report from the road, on my way from Vergennes, Vermont, to Chimney Point, to give my "Maps & Dreams" show at the state historic site there. . .
St. John's Book of Revelations, like the Mayan Long Count, expresses a time cycle derived from the precession of the equinoxes. If we can penetrate the mysteries of the Mayan calendar, can we not bring similar effort to the archetypal work of Christian prophecy?
Might Christian prophecy, as expressed in John's Book of Revelation, have insights as to the real significance of the Maya Long Count end date of December 21, 2012? A new book from Lindisfarne/Steiner Books suggests this.
[Daemonic Dispatches] • "He prays for it, and so he gets it." No, that isn't a line from The Secret. It's a line from Henry Thoreau, just nine words of the over six million he penned in his extraordinary journal. In many ways those nine words encompass Thoreau's central thought and discovery. Despite his distaste for fortune-finding, Thoreau had an uncanny aptitude for discovering treasure.
[Daemonic Dispatches] • If your neighbor or co-worker hasn't already fallen for "The Secret," then perhaps he's hustling for – or getting hustled by – the "Oneness" movement, which promises miraculous healing powers and the imminent Golden Age through the exchange of deekshas. Ahh, smell the bliss!
[Daemonic Dispatches] • Jon Ronson tells the sinister and ridiculous story of the U.S. government's experiments in psychic warfare – including Uri Geller, Ed Dames and the Army's remote viewing program, Steven Halpern and subliminal suggestion, Guy Savelli's death touch, the Heaven's Gate suicides, and the use of the Barney theme song as a torture device in Abu Ghraib.
[Daemonic Dispatches] • In the Republican presidential primary debate in South Carolina, only two of the ten candidates repudiated torture. Frontrunner Rudy Giuliani said interrogators should "use every method they can think of" to get information. The audience applauded wildly, in a chilling gesture that seemed to suggest that many contemporary Americans are happy to have torture performed in their name.Torture has a long history on this Turtle Island continent.

[Daemonic Dispatches] • Professor V. S. Ramachandran, Director of the Center for Brain and Cognition at UC San Diego, is one of the most visible neuroscientists proclaiming and popularizing the notion that there is an imminent revolution in the understanding of the human brain. His own recent work has focused on such mysterious neurological anomalies as phantom limbs, synaesthesia, and Capgras delusion, a condition in which family and friends are experienced as strangers. Attention to anomalies is at the heart of the Fortean endeavor. Yet there is much in Dr. Ramachandran’s science that obscures rather than illuminates.
[Daemonic Dispatches] • An introduction to the column "Daemonic Dispatches," which aims to describe with the cartographer's discerning eye and interpret with the mythographer's spirited clairvoyance the new daemonic lands breaking in upon human consciousness. . . in the spirit of the classic cartographers Samuel de Champlain and Charles Fort.
