The universe is in a constant state of flux. Change is its primordial nature. This transformation is mirrored in our world, influencing everything from our societal structures to our technology.

Keys to Tantric Sexuality
Are Neo Tantra and Tantric Sex the same thing? After all, in this day and age Tantra is being portrayed more and more like empty sexual techniques than what it actually entails. Sex and spirituality were always intended to go hand in hand yet Tantra is not sex; in fact sexuality is but a small…… Continue reading Keys to Tantric Sexuality

The History Behind Big Pharma
Lately there is so much controversy about Big Pharma; more and more each day, people are being divided over whether or not they should trust Big Pharma. It is saddening to me, the level of almost religious fanaticism which is taking place; placing all “faith” on Big Pharma and the “science” behind it. Let me…… Continue reading The History Behind Big Pharma
Let’s Get Real: The Benefits of Healthy Pessimism
We currently live overwhelmed by the literature of “Be positive” or “Focus on the positive”. It seems to the modern New Age Movement (which does not share the same foundation/ideals as the original New Age Movement) the solution to every problem in life is to “just look at the positive”. Self help books with similar…… Continue reading Let’s Get Real: The Benefits of Healthy Pessimism

Understanding the Power Behind Celtic Sexual Magick
Despite all the traumatic episodes I endured, I always believed in Magick; not tricks and seances but actual Magick, the alchemical process of destruction and creation within ourselves and outside of us–“As above so below”. Having grown up in unique circumstances; learning about ancient teachings, alchemy and shamanic rituals, one would say sex magick was…… Continue reading Understanding the Power Behind Celtic Sexual Magick
The Dark Triad
Today I am going to write about a subject often considered “dark”; The Dark Triad. In Psychology The Dark Triad comprises the personality traits of Narcissism, Machiavellianism and Psychopathy. They are called “dark” because of their malevolent qualities. It is my hope in learning more about the The Dark Triad, to be able to better…… Continue reading The Dark Triad
The Masters of Suspicion
Marx, Nietzsche and Freud were called the “Masters of Suspicion” for challenging the prevailing traditions and dogmas of their times. Could these great philosophers/analysts teach us something important for us to implement within our current era? Regardless of whether we share their ideas or not, the truth is these great men impacted Western thought in…… Continue reading The Masters of Suspicion
