Welcome to Syringa & Pan
This is my personal land of enchantment, a space where my imagination has no boundaries. I post articles from my automatic writing or talking on metaphysical subjects. I am a one-woman entertainer with all the interesting characters that I become. I also share some of my mystical dreams. Sometimes, they are beautiful and sacred. Other times, I am like Neo from the Matrix, battling the dark, finding my way to the hidden light.
I am sure you have heard the news-everything is connected. Ya, ya…I know. However, in moments of Grace, that awareness is so awe inspiring and so beautifulI that I can barely find the words to even type this message. In hindsight, a series of events that do not seem at all connected take on new meaning, the connections only obvious with the purity of the new energy that presents itself.
Event 1: Breaking the negative dark night of the soul dream cycle in an obvious way:
Dionysus, God of wine and fertility, pays me a visit and seems to prefer orange sheets. He teases me that I am thinking too much when I start analyzing in the dream that he is here to help. I was also wondering why his hair was not darker as I prefer my sexy dream helpers to be the smoldering type (hmmmm…admittedly, there has been a bit of dry cycle for me during this dark night of the soul stuff).
And, yes, (believe it or not) I am still preoccupied in the dream that I need to get my business going…When I can laugh at myself, rather than beat myself up, I know I am more than half way there. The obvious lack in my life lately is the missing vitality. I am not someone that can live happily for long without a healthy dose of “Anima Mundi.” Yes, I am an introverted type of female Hermes. But I am a female Hermes that needs her “Anima Mundi.” Evidently, my dream guides agree. Message received, just in time for Spring.
Timing: three days before the Solar Eclipse on April 8, 2024
Event 2: Automatic talking session.
When I first was waking up spiritually it was like, all of a sudden, the trees could talk to me. Then in my imagination, the birds could too. Then there was the wind. My goodness I love the wind. The wind had messages for me too. I started automatic writing and automatic talking as a way to get out of my overly analytical mind.
Mythical features started talking to me too, in my automatic writing and in my automatic talking. Yoda was alive. The Old Crone was full of helpful wisdom (she liked to curve my back to look like Yoda, so I did wonder if they were a couple…). When I talked like Yoda, I sounded just like him. I had these signals. St Germain would teach me to dance in my automatic talking as he was tired of people only thinking of him as “the money guy.” Unicorns were real. Lion beings were my friends.
I had symbols to know the energies (although St Germain liked to tease me and pretend to be different energies. He called it “guess the energy game”).
Then all of a sudden, everything went dark. The talking to trees went silent. It was like being abandoned by God. With no wisdom from my nature spirit and mythical friends, my fears got more pronounced and the self doubt debilitating. I still practiced the automatic talking but it was like pulling teeth to get me to do it and the whole time I assumed I was just sputtering nonsense.
Unfortunately, this went on for years. Many dark nights followed, lots of endless shadow clearing. I once asked an intuitive why other people got to have a life without being perfect and her response was simply:
“It is your time. It is not something happening to you. It is happening for you.”
Then the other day, I tried my automatic talking again. I really did not want to, but I very much needed the missing wisdom and the lightness of being that used to come with this personal storytelling hour. My mother was the one who talked me into it again (evidently her devoid of “Anima Mundi” daughter has not been too pleasant to be around lately).
The Mother aspect of God came through in a way that felt like my heart was speaking with the words pouring from my mouth. It was an energy that felt like pure unconditional acceptance. It was like I could say and do anything and the love would still be there. You can’t understand that kind of love without experiencing it. Human love, even when well meaning, can’t touch this kind of love. at least not in my life so far.
She was speaking of her partner, the Father Aspect of God. “He is your Father and he loves you. He is not always very chatty. He is the great silence. He is the great pause. When you look for proof in the world in social media or in other ways as proof of his love, you will not find it. It is only now that you have emptied enough of the dark bits that got in the way that his light can shine for you, that you can receive him. Be grateful for the quietness now, even on social media. You are in the great silence, in the space between breaths.”
Timing: two days before the Solar Eclipse.
Event 3: A dreamless and quiet night. I actually slept.
I have not been sleeping very well. That has been true, unfortunately, for most of my life. However, I slept. I did not dream. I woke up refreshed. I was surprised as it was the morning of April 8th, the day of the Solar Eclipse. Lately, on these big energy days I do not sleep well and my dreams are often very dark, as if all the underworld beings empty out of their hole and terrorize me in my sleep. However, I woke up without dark circles under my eyes, feeling very energized. Now, I am sure you have heard all the stories about how the dark people are trying to hurt us and bad things are going to happen during the eclipse. I could not feel that. I would feel it if that kind of darkness were present. But it was not. I felt energized and full of hope for Spring. I felt more confident.
During the day, I went for a walk. I remember that feeling when I could feel that someone wanted to speak to me. I could feel St Germain’s energy. It is like loud thoughts that push to the front of my brain. He thoughts were simple but important for me. “You do not need advice as you have had the right ideas for years. You had them at the beginning of your journey. You just needed your mojo back. You needed to regain your faith. You need that feeling of hope, of deserving. It is a deserving you do not need to earn.”
During the actual Solar Eclipse, I was meditating. You are not going to believe it. The body movements were back. My head was swinging like the infinity 8 like it used to when I was first waking up. The St Germain dancing was back. My head moved straight up toward heaven which was my Christ energy signal. The Old Crone was back. My friend The Tree of life came for a visit. The Goddess said hello. I could feel them all.
The Creator comes in all kinds of amazing shapes and sizes. In losing this connection and then getting it back, I feel like one of the Jedi knights in Star Wars here to remind you to: “Let the Force be with you.”
And during the Eclipse, during the darkness with a sliver of light still present, the Force was with me, reminding me of its presence.
Timing: the day of the Solar Eclipse April 8, 2024
I hope you had your own beautiful Eclipse stories.

What happens when my dreams stop giving me helpful information? I count on my dreams for inspiration and guidance. However, over the last several months my dreams have been very dark. It is hard for me to understand how much of this is normal subconscious stuff (does not feel like it), what is going in the world or what is going on with me)
To give you an example, before we learned about the underground tunnels in places like Gaza, I saw one of these tunnels in my dreams (not in Gaza but in the UK) and it is definitely not a nice space. In my dream, there were dark rituals and harvesting of energies in various disturbing ways (I hope it is okay but I would rather not go into too much detail here but you can use your imagination). There were elite people in these spaces, not just unknown terrorist characters.
I have been slow to wake up spiritually. It is still a work in progress. The gift of prophecy or sight seems to be more my thing. However, I do not think of it as seeing what is going to happen. It feels more like a spiritual war, fighting for timelines, dark possibilities for humanity compared with more empowering possibilities where humanity has a greater chance of learning lessons of sovereignty and spiritual embodiment.
If there was one positive in these darker dreams, it is that I have noticed a pattern lately of feeling less fear. I face the people causing the problems directly and do not run from them. In the example above, I faced some very evil characters and started to destroy their machines and harvesting rooms. I kept thinking to myself in the dream “I am a sovereign being and I do not consent.”
It is hard sometimes to see such evil confrontations in a positive way, but I am finding I am so much stronger than I ever knew. I also realize that witnessing some of these dark occult rituals provides clarity that I need. Some things in my life and the world make so little sense until these dreams explain what is going on. I have an opportunity to take action to help myself and learn what are the ways I can help others. One of the nuances here is the shadow work. My shadow work process has been long and extensive. However, if I let myself believe some of the trickster beings in these dreams, I would blame myself for everything and never stop.
I have slowly learned to trust myself. That is no small thing. I have received many negative comments from well meaning spiritual people over the years that think they know better than I do about what is going on with me. I mean no disrespect to spiritual healers, but no one really knows better than you do about what is going on with you. The light within your own heart is the only guide you really need. I have spent so much money on healings and guidance and almost nothing has worked better for me than my own meditations, walks in the woods, journaling about my dreams, eating right, automatic talking, and learning to be present in my own life.
Perhaps I have turned the corner with the dark dreams. Last night I had a dream I was visiting an old town where I used to live and I was looking for a gift to buy a friend. I was in a store owned by a woman. She offered to make me lunch and I explained to her how much I miss that town. Then I left the woman and walked in the other room and saw a man sitting at a table eating a piece of pepperoni pizza. I saw a stick with a big black bug on it and I was startled and dropped the stick on the floor and told the man about the bug. He stood up and was about to help me get rid of the black bug when the bug turned into a scorpion and he was terrified and walked away. I woke up after that. I was not sure when I woke up what was really going on in that dream.
When I am confused after one of my dreams, I usually use my Tarot cards to explain the dream symbolism. I just play and I am no expert, but they are quite helpful. I was expecting some devil card or similar explanation for the scorpion (Note to self: do not look on the internet for dream explanations on the scorpion as you will not like what you see). I was afraid it was another negative dream with dark warnings about some horrible thing coming in my life. However, the tarot cards were largely positive. What it seems like is that it was a message to me that there will be signs from spirit when I meet new people whether I can trust them or not (this has been an ongoing and difficult problem for me). That man was not on the trust list!
What we perceive as negative can be the very thing that saves us, so be careful about your assumptions. The dark has important gifts and lessons for us as well, but we need to pay attention.

Lately, my dreams have been so off that I am so relieved to have a dream that was fresh out of the land of enchantment. The amazing part is I am all grown up but, fortunately, not too old for a bit of enchantment. I once had a spiritual teacher who said that a crisis creates cracks that lets the soul in, but enchantment does the job far easier. Well, there are certainly many triggering events for all of us, so there are no shortage of opportunities to let more light in…hmmmmm.
A large fawn appeared in my dream recently and was just standing there. I knew in the dream that it was not a normal fawn. There was something otherworldly about it. I hugged the fawn and started to cry. She had such innocence and grace. I also felt that part of her message was “to please lighten up and let the light in. Enchantment is a better way to find harmony and joy in your life.”
I have to wonder how many opportunities am I missing for these lighter moments of enchantment because I am so triggered left and right every time I turn the computer on. I read about more people that are taking social media breaks and you can certainly understand why. I have never been that big on any of these platforms, but the little I am on still unnerves me multiple times of day depending on the platform and the subject.
The day I was feeling one of these triggering moments reading comments about millennials, generation X (my generation), generation Z, generation alpha….
I guess as a generation X person that would explain why most of the time I feel like I could say almost anything online and still feel invisible. Someone that comes from a younger generation could say exactly the same thing and probably get hundreds of likes and claps. When not invisible, there is the gas lighting. When there is not the gaslighting, there is the one upping and competition. It feels like you need to be constantly writing blogs, notes and chats every five minutes or the world would just think you were dead and forget all about you. Also, the more polarizing you are the more clicks you get, so the triggering is built into the game. There seems like no escape except to take computer holidays and hide in the woods where I just might stumble across some enchantment.
I wonder how many enchanting moments we are all missing. Someone might write a blog that is just the creative inspiration you need that day, but it is a miracle if you ever find it because that person does not live online. My goodness, the note might be a year old. How would someone ever find that year old note when the main way to get likes and attention is to write multiple articles, tweets or chats per week (and to go out of your way to seek as much attention as you can with radical hashtags designed to push buttons)?
Now with AI there is even less opportunity for the kind of magic that can only come from serendipity. Why read at all if you can just let the AI gather your information and summarize for you? But what about the exceptions that are not in the summaries? What about that one fringe thought that AI would not see because of the training it receives? What if that one fringe thought is enough for the right type of person to see to catalyze the discovery of a new alternative energy technology?
Lately, writing online is starting to feel like putting a message in a bottle, hoping that whoever needs to see it will somehow.
(I took down my blogs and reposted several of them again. I originally published this one in December 11, 2023)
This is an article about Gaia, Mother Earth, who was known as the Mother of All Beings in Greek mythology and who played a very significant role in shaping the world of mythology from the very beginning with Chaos to the reign of Olympian Gods. This is background information for my blog below.
In the midst of global chaos, war, and dark dreams, I occasionally get a break and have a dream that is so mystical and beautiful, I cry in both the dream and when I first awaken. I read recently about the myth of Gaia and Uranus which I attached above. It does all sound quite awful reading about the myth of Gaia, Mother Earth and Uranus, Father Sky in the story above. It is filled with incest, monsters, chaos, jealousy. Basically, Father Sky is separated from Mother Earth and their son Saturn or Chronos (depending on the particular, myth, but it is the energy of time) castrates Uranus on his Mother’s request. In this story, she felt that he would watch over her if he were in the sky. She felt the only way that could happen was to chop off the part that kept him tethered to his earthly animalistic desires.
That is where my dream began. He was very young, perhaps just a teenager or maybe a bit older. He had blond curly hair so I would know the imagery of the light and sun that illuminated him. He was so beautiful and his energy so extraordinary that all I could do in the dream was cry. Now, in the long period of this time of his castration, there were angels in the background in my dream taking care of him. They had him hooked up to an IV line and were pumping him with heavenly fluids in “that particular area” to keep him safe and nourished with his life force. I felt a twinge of sadness as I looked at him and saw the IV line and what was going on. However, he was not sad. He was illuminated and shining his loving energy on everyone that wanted and needed it.
Then suddenly, this beautiful woman with long dark hair walked up and embraced him with unconditional love in her eyes. Whatever happened to separate them was forgiven. His life force returned. I was really crying in the dream during this scene and then I woke up still crying. I started laughing remember the story about Gaia and Uranus and I like to think I have a hint of how the story really ends that those reading the mythology have not yet discovered. For me, this was the journey of my own soul back to the light without my terrorizing ego (“Saturn”) blocking my soul power from fully manifesting in my life. This lovely couple was like my beloved, resurrected Pan&Syringa.
In the Tarot, it is the Lovers Tarot, which is the sixth card. The fifteen tarot is the Devil which we discussed in an earlier blog, which is the opposite energy of the Lovers energy (where your heart, body and mind are more balanced). When your soul returns to the light within you, the lovers card represents the sacred marriage in our kundalini rising story. It is when your third eye opens up and restores your connection to your higher self’s light and energy. At this point, the number fifteen Devils Tarot transforms to the enlightened man energy (the divine human), with you fully embodying your soul’s potential and wholeness. Two opposites reunite and create a beautiful third energy which is the real essence of you. This the story of your kundalini awakening. In my opinion, it is one of the biggest things going on with humanity right now. Many people, hopefully, will return to their own inner light and leave the outer shadow of war, division and terror behind.
Did I actually witness the exact moment when my separation ended from my soul and light?
Recently I was playing with my new Tarot Deck called “The Sacred Geometry Oracle” by John Michael Greer. One of the things I like about John’s Sacred Geometry Tarot is that it forces me to quiet my mind as there is no other way I can make heads or tails of what these cards are trying to tell me. I also enjoy his detailed instructions of how to draw the geometries. It is something soothing to me like walking in the woods or chopping vegetables.
John Michael Greer is a widely read author, blogger, and astrologer whose work focuses on the overlaps between ecology, spirituality, and the future of industrial society. He served twelve years as Grand Archdruid of the Ancient Order of Druids in America, and remains active in that order as well as several other branches of Druid nature spirituality. He currently lives in East Providence, Rhode Island.
This morning, I drew this card from the deck:
“The Spiral” Tarot Card from “The Sacred Geometry Oracle” by John Michael Greer
I have been having some really nasty dreams lately. Perhaps it has something to do with all the sadness, corruption, polarization, and violence in the world. Perhaps it is related to my own grief over all the difficulties I have had in my personal and professional life over so many years. I am not one that likes to hang around a victim state. For that reason, I hesitate to describe these dreams as “hijacked” but I do wonder sometimes. The trickster and evil energies have been strong lately in my dreams.
Recently, a really evil man was trying to talk me and another woman into walking away from our soul missions or else “bad things would happen to us at the world fair.” She is a really big leader in our space, but we do not work together or even know each other outside of this dream. I have been blocked for many years working to clear intense emotional trauma to get my life force flowing again. This has been a multi-year journey as I have described in previous blogs.
For some reason, we were both in London. According to Google, to be chased at a fair could relate to the need to confront your fears or face your challenges. London, hmmm…no idea. Maybe London had something to do with changes to the world’s financial system. The woman stamped his document like a notary and I asked her why she would give into her fears like that. She felt sick to her stomach and shouted “yuck” over and over. When I asked her why she gave into his demands, she said she did not (and I was like “sure, whatever. I saw what I saw”). I told the man to his face he was not a nice man and I did not like him. There was a child-like innocence to my words, like my inner child was doing all the talking.
In another recent dream recently, my inner child was insisting I get my nails done. I finally did that today and painted them diamond blue just for her. She also wanted me to get my hair done, which I also did right before this weekend. She had the biggest smile on her face in the dream, the smile larger than her tiny face. After all these years of trying so hard to heal, to see and feel the joy and innocence of my inner child warmed my heart, calmed my mind, and soothed my weary soul.
So the “bad” man in the dream gave me the shivers. However, my inner child talking through me with such courage and grace gave me strength and hope. He had no power over her (“me”) anymore. These days I have trouble understanding the difference between my own healing or the healing of the soul of the world. Maybe that is the point. Maybe that is all any of us can do, to restore our faith and connection with our own soul and spirit. That was the message I received yesterday during a meditation. The Divine Mother and Father came through my meditation and insisted I open my arms wide to the sky and receive their healing first, so I have a full and overflowing cup of grace, healing, and compassion to share with the world. I was also instructed to release all my burdens once and for all into their arms.
Now back to the Tarot Card….According to the description for Card 21, “the spiral suggests that the design you have begun to draw upon your tracing board has much to unfold, if you allow it to follow the directions and dynamics it has already set in motion. Just as the oak unfolds from an acorn, the smallest portion of a spiral’s arc already contains the full outward sweep of the finished spiral in potential; follow the potential, and your design will unfold as it should.”
To unleash your soul’s potential means clearing out all the trauma and dark bits that get in the way of the power, love and light that are your birthright. It also means facing your fears, having strong boundaries, and speaking your truth regardless of how difficult that might be. That is especially true today. It takes so much courage with all this polarization, anger, grief and pain to reveal your truth in this way, so be good to yourself. Do not be hard on yourself. Just put one foot in front of the other, take it one step at a time, and know you are not alone.
You can read plenty of views onPrometheus. Some worship him in a dark lord kind of way and others stay away from thinking about him at all for fear that he represents evil or antichrist energy.
Like most mythology, however, there are always layers of imbedded wisdom and truth, a type of timeless wisdom that is far beyond any human concepts of good and evil.
So the story goes, Zeus chained Prometheus to Mount Caucasus for misbehaving and giving the power of fire to humans.
Chiron, the Wounded Healer, was immortal. Chiron set Prometheus free. Zeus took away Chiron’s immortality from him and sent him to the underworld. Chiron willingly sacrificed himself. As long as fire was stuck as a result Prometheus’ chains, humans could not access their power of the sacred fire. With Chiron’s help, we can consciously choose to awaken our power. By sacred fire, we are referring to the kundalini awakening, the awakening that results as the sacred fire moves through our chakras from the root to the crown to heal our energy centers in our bodies.
Haven’t we all had experiences where we are forced to face our wounds in our subconscious and unconscious similar to how Chiron willingly went to the underworld? It does feel like a death experience. I have discovered first hand how horrible the grief can be. There we face our greatest wounds and fears, but we also have a chance to reclaim our lost power (or sacred kundalini fires). We can then learn to use our power more wisely.
Collectively, humanity is facing their deepest wounds during these times of chaos, in between one age and another (from the Age of Pisces to the Age of Aquarius). To get too caught up in the fight of good vs evil means losing your opportunity to regain your own lost power, the only real way you can empower yourself to do your part to heal yourself, your ancestral energies and the world.
Specifically, through this combined Chiron and Prometheus healing, we heal our fallen creator male energies that exist in all of us, regardless of gender. You can think of these energies as the energies of endless war, over inflated egos, materialism, science over spirit, the mind separate from body and spirit. By facing our fears and wounds, we are able to heal our main Nadis (Ida, Pingala, and Sushumna), the channels through which our life force is supposed to flow, but often does not due to our separation from nature and spirit.
The myth of Prometheus helps us understand better what we see going on in the world and in our own lives: an endless cycle of abuse, the relentless cycle of giving and receiving abuse, shame, and pain. In Greek sources, Prometheus created fire out of clay. Zeus took the fire from humanity. Prometheus stole the fire back for humanity so they could connect to spirit and have warmth. Zeus then chained him to the mountain where vultures pecked at his liver every day which was then restored every night. Liver eating birds represent our angry fallen male side losing trust and hope in the future, while also destroying our bodies (our female side or nature from which we are disconnected). In this version of the story, Zeus is like our medical doctors or public health officials that no longer have a connection to Mother Earth and Father Sky, so our bodies get tired and deteriorate. We also give our power away and lose our sovereignty (does any of this sound familiar?). Our only path is to learn to heal ourselves, to come to terms with our own mortality, and to let go of our God-like illusions of ourselves. When we face the fear of death as well as our deepest fears and wounds, we break our “prometheus” chains and learn to use our life force power more responsibly. We reconnect to nature and spirit in the process, which helps us to reconnect to life, which, paradoxically, requires releasing our fear of death. We cannot forgive what we refuse to face in ourselves and the world.
To learn more about this interpretation of the myths of Chiron and Prometheus, please see Barbara Hand Clow’s book “Astrology and the Rising of Kundalini: The Transformative Power of Saturn, Chiron, and Uranus” very helpful. The entire Chapter “Chiron: The Rainbow Bridge” is relevant for this conversation (pages 198-201). Please click here to learn more about the book. Read the whole book. It will add a whole new layer to your understanding of the interconnections of astrology, cycles, the kundalini awakening, and shadow wounds.
Other helpful definitions:
Ida: female, lunar, cooling effect, river, Shakti, left in body, animal (nature)
Pingala: male, sun, right in body, Shiva, human
Shushumna: center channel
When Shakti and Shiva are united and duality is healed, energy flows freely up and down your spine through the healed three chambers. This is known as the Kundalini awakening.
I have been dreaming for years about ancient mysteries and mythologies. I have worked hard to stop overanalyzing the dreams and to journal instead. Even if years go by, sooner or later, some triggering experience, feeling, dream or encounter brings back one or more of these dreams like a puzzle that has no beginning or end, a slow revelation of secrets.
I have experienced the hard way what “dark night of the soul” means in my life. There were truths I did not want to see or face about myself or the world, but my path has been such that ignoring or not seeing these truths was not an option. I used to wonder why other people got to live such normal lives not wondering about these things or having to go through it. In one spiritual reading years ago, I was told that it is an honor to have a life like this. I would not wish it on my worst enemy, except I am finally through enough of it that I can start to see and feel glimmers of the hidden light. The light is not like anything I have experienced before. Words do not do this conversation justice. Sometimes after one of these experiences, I wake up crying, completely overwhelmed, knowing that I was just touched by Grace. For a reluctant spiritualist and recovering Catholic, this is no small thing. It is interesting how similar the intensity of grief and this level of unconditional love feel. In some of these dreams, there is resolution to old grief, mountains of wounds all layered on top of each other. In dreams like this, I feel the grief and then the release, with a knowing when I wake up that something amazing and profound just happened.
Now, I have paid for every type of healing there is trying to make sense of these dark night experiences that went on for so many years. I have meditated and taken many spiritual classes. I have repeated mantras. I have willed on the rising of the kundalini for the clearing that needed to happen only to be disappointed and poorer from all the money I spent. So far, the kundalini experiences I have had were not timed by me. They were not experiences I expected. I am realizing that my dreams have been about this slow awakening for a long time. I just did not recognize them as such at the time, but I look back at them now in wonder. They were just not experiences I could rush. They were in God’s timing, not mine. It does make a difference to recognize this as it is helps to know you are not crazy. There is nothing wrong with you even if it seems other people are making more progress than you are on your spiritual growth. It is not a race.
I paid for a spiritual reading recently and the reader blew it off for months. In my life, this is nothing strange. I thought “here we go again.” Months later, she surfaced with a message from her spiritual guides saying it was time to honor her commitments and to not let these people down. However, instead of the personal reading I expected, it was a group reading that felt more like an ancient mystical text or scroll that I had to decipher (again, nothing weird in my life). One of the key messages from that cryptic reading was that “I was a daughter of the hidden light.”
Of course, if that light is hidden even from me, how do I make sense of this message? However, I am finally starting to understand the comment from years ago about the blessing of a “Dark Night of the Soul” life. Liberating my trapped life force energy (which I call “Pan and Syringa”) is very connected with what people understand as the kundalini awakening. This awakening has been painfully slow for me, and the experiences have been so different than what I expected based on what I learned from the many healings and classes I have had.
If you already easily speak to your spiritual guides and journey out of body, you may even think you have no “awakening” left to do. Most of the time, that is not true at all. Sometimes it can even get in the way of healing the tougher issues that lurk around the lower chakras of your energy body. I feel these days that I was born without my spiritual gifts for a good reason. There was no real way I could walk away from healing my traumas from this life and other lives, those traumas that separated me from my soul, higher self and from life itself. Also, it is hard to feel grounded and hang around ordinary people when you are flying away every second talking to angels or zipping around in space and time (but thank goodness I still have my wild dreams).
As spirit knew how hard my lessons would be, I feel they gave me visions of what my return of my life force would eventually look and feel like. When spiritual people talk about awakenings, I typically get uncomfortable instead of hopeful. I feel that most of my soul is already in the higher dimensions, so why would I rush to leave? What is wrong with life anyway? The vision from this dream was about a level of human embodiment I could not imagine or understand at the time. I was not floating on a cloud with wings drinking angel nectar for a job well done. I was deeply alive, but no longer afraid or alone.
I did not know it at the time that this was a future vision of what the kundalini energy would look and feel like for me. I did not really understand it, but I do know it was beautiful.
About 5 years ago I had a dream about a beautiful little blond boy who lived in a small stone cottage. I went through the door of the cottage and saw the boy lying on a couch. He was a very special boy. He had guardians all around. I would describe these guardians as older, wiser grandmother types. When I walked up to him, he had my face. He was around 8 years old, forever young, in the sense he had a glow about him, but he was still a human boy in the dream. He seemed excited to see me and asked me if brought him some fruit (I love fresh fruit or maybe it was some funny reference to a return to the Garden of Eden in a metaphysical sense). I do not have kids in this life. I could not have them for medical reasons. I said to the grandmother guides, “I have a son!” And then I started to cry with feelings of a joy I have never felt before. When I woke up, I was still crying, knowing in my heart that this special little boy was real and also a part of me.
What do Pan, Syringa, the Kundalini Awakening and Wetiko have in Common?
In one of the my previous articles, I speculated that the world seems to be going through a type of collective kundalini awakening.
Given the shadow nature of the reality around us, it is no wonder many people are ignoring most of it calling the rest of us crazy for seeing the corruption that is so visible and rampant across the world. It is if Dorothy threw the water out and the dark witch is dying, but Toto has not yet pulled the curtain back on the Wizard playing with all this toys (and yes I did have a dream recently about a dog in a chariot during a big celebration, so maybe that means we are close).
Perhaps Google, Microsoft, and the other tech oligarchs like playing the collective role of the Wizard with all the AI. Some people are mesmerized like it is God himself in computer form, or at least some version of the Holy Grail. Others like me are cautious feeling awkward of the energies and intentions. After all, what are any of us without our word? Do we not speak our own version of our inner truth every time we speak or write? Even if we are not masters of the trade, what happens to all the people, including the students when we individually lose our voice to a collective voice that seems to have God-like Powers (but instead of the God within our hearts, it is an artificial God created by a collective humanity who is more like a traumatized child who has lost his or her faith).
The tech oligarchs are the ones with the training models and the data stored on their servers. They are the ones who decide what data to use to train and not train. Businesses are integrating these AI models in all sorts of products and services, but they are integrating on top of these particular tools, not on top of LLM (large language model) tools developed by people who are more empowered and grounded. What about real creative flow? Does more creativity improve these technologies or does our collective creativity keep feeding the beast like a bad dream? What about people marginalized or abused? Does it capture their voices too or are they still excluded like they are now? Yes it is true that the system learns from collective input. However, it is also feeding off that creative life force like a virus looking for a new host. What is the collective dream energy that enables people to come together to develop science and technology that represent a more empowered, balanced and grounded voice?
When is technology our friend and not a dystopian nightmare? Certainly it is not our friend with our collective shadow taking over our world like it is now. I feel individual creative agency comes from letting your Pan out of jail, facing (and healing) your subconscious and unconscious shadows and taking back your power. This is hard to do when we ridicule most people who talk about these subjects as crazy or too airy fairy. Increasingly, the science is catching up to these spiritual points of view. Fortunately, these spiritual views have been part of every ancient society across time one way or another, so perhaps we should start paying attention.
Paul Levy discusses this collective dream of the unconscious and subconscious as a type of Wetiko (mind virus). He is a wonderful voice for this level of wisdom. One of the things I like most about his writings (see below for a link to one of his recent articles), is the transparency he shows of the collective shadow causing these distortions in our reality. When I read his words, it sounds so much to me like a collective version of the trapped life force of Pan and the obvious need for a kundalini awakening as the antidote (by integrating our human and divine natures like the lion and unicorn, but little by little for each one of us when we are ready).
With enough empowered and clear voices, I believe we can create a very different world very quickly, with emergent and beautiful new ideas coming from self-organizing groups of inspiring, grounded, intelligent and intuitive people. We can still use and develop lots of cool technology and science, but science and tools used and developed with healthier and more holistic intentions. What I find so hopeful about looking at at the world this way is that it frees me from focusing on all the darkness as some eternal fight of good vs evil that never changes. After all, Mother Earth loves her cycles. Aren’t we all due for a little shadow clearing (manifesting as the chaos in our collective reality) and more Aquarian age magic?
Here is one of Paul Levy’s recent and timely articles:
I discovered Anne-Marie’s website by accident. I was looking for help interpreting the Devil Tarot from my previous blog and found her site.
Her work was not only helpful for understanding the Devil Tarot but also the biggest mysteries of my life, especially the larger purpose of the intense challenges I have gone through most of my life.
Her interpretation of the Devil Tarot may provide more color on my previous blog called 'Why is Pan in the Underworld'. Although she does not seem to share my enthusiasm for the Wirth 22 Major Arcana, she has a strong background in interpreting ancient symbolism. For me, the Devil Tarot (in particular the Wirth Devil Tarot) is much more than a Tarot card. It is actually a better understanding of the evil and darkness in our world and in our own lives and how we can transcend these dark energies. As we clear our own energies and shadows, we do our part to heal the darkness in the world. It is tempting to blame everything on the “other” as there is admittedly much to point at these days that is not terribly nice.
However, what if all the darkness we see going on in the world is just our collective shadow from previous ages? It is hard to consider this possibility as there is so much evil that is so visible now. How did we get so lost and how can we move beyond the shadow energies of the Aryan Age (war energies) and Piscean Age (total control or dystopian energies as we give our power away) to embody our individual sovereignty of the Aquarian Age that is just beginning? The Aquarian age should be about freedom and individual sovereignty, but if we continue to carry the collective shadow energies of the last 4000 years, the science and technology that are such a big part of the Aquarian age will only have war-like, dystopian pathways in our global world. If we each embody the potential of the Aquarian energies, can we can learn to use technology and science in more empowering and vital ways? Can we harmonize better with the natural world and each other?
I started looking around her website and found her comments about the Kundalini awakening fascinating. I ended up reading two of her books (please find links at the end of this blog). In both of them she is discussing ancient symbolism in the Bible as it relates to the Kundalini awakening.
In her interpretation of this ancient symbolism, John the Baptist was actually Jesus. According to her interpretation of the symbolism imbedded in the Bible, John the Baptist represented the energy of the Kundalini awakening that eventually led to his transformation into Jesus Christ.
I realize this may be hard to read and hear, especially if you are very religious. However, her comments about the Kundalini symbolism are still helpful for better understanding of the potential purpose of the times we are in and what we can each potentially do to help clear toxic old energies.
When you read her books, it is hard not to see the symbolism everywhere you look in the world. It has helped me look at events, even the really terrible things like 911 terror attacks in New York City with new eyes. Certainly, I am not excusing the terror, but if we can somehow own our own shadows and find our inner light then these dark acts will no longer have any place in our lives or world. Even realizing the symbolism takes power away from those committing the darkest acts. The symbolism is sacred, and these acts defame the sacred. Yes, many spiritual people recognize symbolism, but it has been my experience that many spiritual and religious people focus on the evil, but not the sacred nature of the symbolism imbedded in the evil acts (more than not they misinterpret the symbols themselves as negative). It is our birth right to reclaim the sacred. It is what connects us to our own soul, to the Earth and to each other. The brainwashing will just not work understanding these sacred symbols.
These symbols have been with every religion and ancient society one way or another across time. They also show up in Jungian psychology, in philosophy and in gnostic literature. These sacred symbols belong to all of us, not just the dark occultists. Could better understanding of these sacred old symbols help to close the separation of religion, spirituality, science, technology, philosophy, and every other area of our society so that we can find the meaning, connection, and compassion we all seek one way or another? I realize this is easier said than done. I have been working on clearing my traumas for years. However, one of the first things I realized reading her books was that our own Kundalini awakening happens in God’s time, not ours. I have had so many healings, taken so many classes, read so many books over many years. Now I do simple meditations and focus on the Kundalini and sincere requests to the Holy Spirit to help me clear my remaining trauma. I go for long walks in the woods and enjoy all types of nature. I smile at people, and they smile back. I feel more connected now and have more faith.
I have considered her comments about the Kundalini in terms of the Pan and Syringa symbolism playing out in my own life over so many years. It makes so much more sense to me now. It is this Kundalini awakening, our inner serpent rising up our spine and through our chakras, that helps us to reclaim our lost power and life force from our disconnection to nature and to God. It is what helps to clear our mental, emotional, spiritual and even physical traumas. It is part of the Holy Spirit energy, according to Anne-Marie.
I have taken Kundalini yoga, taken Kundalini classes, even experienced some of these energies through intimacy. However, I really did not understand the true nature of how meaningful the Kundalini awakening is or even what it was exactly. Almost everything in our modern society conspires against awakening this sacred fire. However, for each of us, this awakening is in God’s timing, not our own. It is also not something that can happen over night. It requires patience. They are powerful energies and a serious responsibility. Maybe we think it is something we do on our spiritual path, like checking a box. Perhaps some may view it only as a sacred sexual union, so what do you do if you are not in a relationship? It seems more likely than not, the Kundalini awakening is the key to finding a better partner, one of that is better suited to you. Or perhaps it can improve the relationship you already have. These energies are the holy trinity, but just not quite the version we think we understand. This is the version of the holy trinity that we embody, as we receive and integrate the higher energies of our own Christ energies into our newly purified bodies as we finally heal our fallen dualistic energies (both male and female aspects of it). It is what King Solomon sings about in his Song of Songs. This is how we come together and form better collaborations and partnerships to build a new world. This is how we activate our Merkabah. This is how we get in the flow and embrace life again. This is how we heal original separation energies. Most importantly, this is how we learn to forgive ourselves and embrace our own humanity.
How does that saying go? “When the student is ready, the teacher appears.” Today, that teacher for me is Anne-Marie.
You will have to see for yourself. There is so much beauty in her message, and it is so timely for each of us.
Welcome to my website! I live in The Netherlands, where I guide silence retreats, and write books and articles on kundalini awakening. Symbolism referring to the divine energy in our pelvis can be found everywhere: In sacred scriptures, myths, fairy tales, and even in the 15th century tarot. Read more on this

Mary Magdalene, the disciple whom Jesus loved. The only thing the Bible says about Mary Magdalene is that she was one of the women who followed Jesus on his tour through Judea, and that she was freed from seven demons. At closer scrutiny, however, there appears to be a treasure trove
What happened to the God of Nature, the God of All for Dragons, Faeries and Elementals?
Admittedly, when looking for photos of Pan, I was a bit surprised by all these photos and artist renditions of Pan with horns, upside down pentagrams, and his half goat-like appearance.
I mostly ignored these things. Until one day, I just had to face the truth that there was more to Pan than I realized.
I am new at using Tarot. At first, I had a Rider-Waite version of Tarot and decided they did not like me, so I threw them out. Sometimes, you have to just throw human logic aside and just go with your feelings, right?
I decided to buy a new Tarot deck and see if I liked them better. Typical for my bizarre spiritual path, I decided to plunge more deeply in occult-level wisdom, so I bought Oswald Wirth Tarot cards. There are some differences from the Rider-Waite version of the 22 Major Arcana (which are much more popular), so keep that in mind as I discuss my early experiences using this deck. Oswald Wirth was a Swiss Occultist. One of his influences was occultist and magician, Eliphas Levi.
To better understand the cards, I bought a book called “Tarot of the Magicians” by Oswald Wirth. This edition was published in 2012 by the Red Wheel/Weiser, LLC. It was first published in Paris in 1927 under the title “Le Tarot, des Imagiers du Moyen Age” and was first translated into English in 1985. The introduction to my version of the book was written by Mary K Greer, which is an author, teacher, and Grandmother of the American Tarot Association.
In Mary K Greer’s words:
“For both Wirth and Levi incarnation in the material world serves Spirit by forcing Spirit to free itself from the limitations of separateness, both from the Divine and from the others. Nature becomes a kind of school in which we are to see through the illusion of separateness that matter imparts. Wirth follows Levi in seeing the Devil as the force which condenses astral light into a denser animal magnetism-the instinct for physical survival-essential for the life of the body. As a radical force for self-preservation, it sees each entity as a separate and sees Nature and others for its own benefit-in a way selfishly damming or short circuiting the free flow of energy. It is a person’s direction of this force by a pure will that is the secret to using its qualities for good. This is one of the great lessons the Tarot teaches.”
“Ultimately, for Wirth, the Tarot tells us where we came from, what we are, and where we are going (past, present, and future). The purpose is to regain Paradise, but in a Universal Regeneration in which, ultimately, all humans come as close as nature will allow to Divine Perfection. We humans become artists in order to complete a Divine Work that brings order to human chaos.”
From Oswald Wirth:
“We become Free Artists, free Builders, Freemasons, carrying out the plan of the Supreme Architect via the law of life which is that of creative work.”
I know Freemasons and Occultists get a bad rap these days. Just because I am reading and learning about occultism and magic does not mean I know any more than you do. I am just a naturally curious person who likes to explore and learn the truth of things at deep layers.
I feel that buried in the seemingly darkest places are answers to the chaos and darkness in the world and in our own lives. My version of shadow work is rather intense. Just to give you a taste I will share with you that I have dark elves visiting me in my dreams. I climb down dark ladders into dark swamps with monsters in my dreams. Admittedly, the first time, I climbed right back up because I was scared. It was like a reverse Jacob’s ladder.
My life so far has been like one big spiritual initiation in many ways, plunging me into the darkness whether I wanted it or not. Superficial spirituality with all fluffy the love and light talk was not really getting me anywhere but frustrated. Many spiritual people kept telling me to ground more, meditate more and learn about the law of attraction and then everything would be okay. Well, I have done all those things and more, and it did not work. When synchronicity knocked on the door, I answered, so I decided to learn more about occult and magic. I always did enjoy a good puzzle and mystery. Besides Merlin used to show up occasionally in my meditations and automatic writing. Maybe he was encouraging me to learn more about occultism and magic to understand how these practices have impacted our world. Learning about the ancient mysteries tug at my soul like nothing else.
According to Mary K Greer, the Wirth’s 22 Major Arcana only version was never that popular in the West, but it has inspired many people in the world for its artistry at “making the invisible visible.” New versions of it keep showing up. My version has the minor arcana mixed in so you can use it for more purposes.
I gave you a taste for one of the main lessons of Major Arcana 15 The Devil in Wirth’s Tarot in Mary K Greer’s quote above. There are more details relevant to my desire to learn more about Pan and why I feel his presence in my life so deeply.
The Devil Tarot in Wirth’s deck is known as Baphomet of the Templars, the Goat of Mendes, or the Great Pan of the Gnostics. So here it was the truth from which I could no longer run. Here was my “God of Nature” friend who, along with Goddess Venus, taught me how to fly in my dreams, but in Wirth’s Tarot, he is the Devil. What gives? He also looks nothing like the Pan of my dreams in this deck.
I am happy I met the resurrected and enlightened Pan first. It certainly makes my personal journey easier. So, what does it all mean?
From the section on the Devil in “Tarot of Magicians” I started to slowly unpack the mystery. I am still learning and evolving, the same as all of you, so I am sharing what I have learned so far.
From Oswald Wirth:
“Seen in its essence which is common to all living things, universal life circulates unceasingly, always identical to itself, flowing indifferently from one recipient into another. If nothing had come to trouble the regularity of this peaceful flow, then life would have remained conforming to one’s ‘ideal” of paradise; but the Snake intervened, and under its influence every living being wanted to hoard the common property in order to condense life around itself for its own individual benefit. Thus, came about the revolt against the universal order of things. Individual whirls were born in the heart of the general swirl, now stirred and troubled by the radical selfishness which the Devil personifies. This Adversary (Satan in Hebrew) is the Prince of the Material World which without him could not exist for he is at the base of all differentiation between one individual and another. It is he who pushes the atom to set itself up at the expense of the substance which is uniformly ethereal. He is the one who differentiates, the enemy of unity. He sets the worlds against the World and living people against each other. Having incited them to wish to be like God, he then indicates the instinct which relates everything to themselves, as if they we were the centre around which everything must gravitate.”
“Like the Greek Sphinx, it draws together within itself the four Elements, of whom the Devil is the principal life-giver.”
I would love to speak to a wise being like King Solomon about Pan to explain the deeper mysteries to me (King Solomon has appeared in a few of my dreams, but my lucid dreaming skills are not so great yet. Hopefully, I can ask him soon). I would love to ask him about how to heal my fractured psyche and enable my body to be a vessel for my higher spiritual energies in a deeper more meaningful way, emptied of my subconscious and unconscious shadow energies. I would love to understand Pan and the vital life force energies and how to integrate them into my life in a healthy way.
I am well aware that darker magicians and occultists try to manipulate and control these astral plane energies. I am also aware of how infiltrated the spiritual and religious communities are, as many people do not understand how deep these shadow energies are and how easy it is to manipulate people who are not empty vessels for the higher light. I have found out the hard way interacting with spiritual people that it does not seem to matter how many spiritual gifts you have if your spiritual ego is too high, and you still need a great deal more shadow clearing. I feel that consciously working to activate my light body is my best protection against these manipulative energies. I am fortunate that my dreams warn me increasingly about these manipulative energies and how they work through people to try to subjugate them.
I do not feel afraid or judgmental. I feel compassion for other people like me, with one foot in the regular world and one foot in this strange world where magic, fairies, dragons, demons, elementals, and angels are real. I admit to spending considerable sums looking for ways to “manifest” through the law of attraction and using different spiritual tools to protect myself from beings with malevolent intent. I found out the hard way over long periods of time how pointless most of this was for me. Lately, I am learning that to heal myself body, mind, and soul, I need to learn to trust my own knowing, intuition and dreams. Simply, I need to learn to trust myself and to slowly, one day at a time, heal my emotional traumas and overly analytical mind. In my case, the world has a been a dark mirror for much of my life until very recently, mirroring back all my subconscious and unconscious wounds, so there was little chance for me to trust anyone outside myself. Real trust has been rare in my life. Slowly, I am starting to see the blessing of my difficult path of spiritual initiation. I have been told by spiritual beings it was “my time” and this kind of life is considered a blessing. When I first heard those words it made no real sense to me. Years went by before I started to get it.
I am starting to understand why I found these cards, how and why they may assist me. If I let the fear of the occult stop me or if I assumed all secret society people were bad, I would not have found the wisdom buried in these pages, wisdom I need for my particular path. Our paths are not all the same and we should not assume we know better what is right for other people. We learn what we need one lesson at a time, often the hard way. We all make our mistakes. Our mistakes lead to wisdom, wisdom impossible to get any other way.
It is more obvious to me what is going on behind the scenes in elite circles after learning a bit more about how the occult energies work. For some, the draw of using the unconscious dark energies for their own gain are just too great, but I do not feel all occultists are like this. It is usually not a great idea to generalize about large categories of people. For my path, I needed to walk through the dark swamp. I could not ignore it and pretend it was not there. Fortunately, along with these darker experiences, I have also had many contacts with higher divine energies in my dreams and meditations such as Quan Yin, the Green Tara and King Solomon. That is just a small sample. It is like going to the movies most nights these days. I am learning to not judge, not to categorize people or experiences into good vs evil, good vs bad. It blocks wisdom and compassion along with seeing things from a higher perspective. My other big lesson is to let my feelings flow, to experience and allow the grief and heart ache inevitable as the truth of the ugliness of what we have done and continue to do to ourselves, each other and the Earth reveals itself. Separation from the Earth and the Divine can lead to some really ugly behavior.
It is interesting to read the following wisdom from Wirth as some may be reluctant to probe deeply into the mind of any occultist (especially with all the visible evil we see in the world today).
“Nature loves to make the ‘poor in spirit’ benefit from her secrets, they who are totally incapable of imagining a knowledgeable theory based on the results they obtain. Far from attributing a personal power to themselves the modest healers consider themselves to be very humble instruments in the services of superior forces.”
“Being careful to control himself in a moderate way by repressing his baser desires, the wise man leaves the mastery of the invisible to the witches and the falsely initiated to the pretentious occultists who rig themselves out of in titles which betray their childish vanity.”
“The serious Adept is not ignorant of the fact that the Devil is the great magic agent, thanks to whom miracles are performed unless they are the purely spiritual kind; for as long as the pure spirit acts directly upon spirit, the Devil does not have to intervene. But as soon as the body enters into it, nothing can be done without the Devil. We owe him our material existence, for if the desire to be and the self-preservation instinct which came from him, had not dominated him from birth, then we would not have been able to hang on to life with the exclusive egoism which is characteristic of early childhood.”
Now, I am not a witch, occultist, or magician. I do believe, as they do, in elemental and other astral plane energies. I have had far too many weird dreams and other personal experiences to doubt these things.
According to Oswald Wirth, these are some of the details of the Devil in the Tarot card:
1) Its black legs represent the Earth element (the Gnomes).
2) The monster’s green scales covering the thighs represent the water element (The Undines).
3) The blue wings are related to the air element (The Sylphs).
4) The red head symbolizes the fire element (The Salamanders).
3 X 5=15: These are the three pentagrams in the Wirth Devil Tarot. When you release your traumas from your lower animal self and finally integrate with your higher self, you become an Enlightened man. The pairing to the Devil card with the Lovers Tarot Number 6 helps to better understand how this enlightenment might work, as you clear out all your dark shadow energies in your major chakras from the root to the Crown chakra. When you reach the 6th chakra, the third eye chakra, you activate your pineal gland and connect to your divine Christ self, the Anointed One. This is known as the divine marriage. The White Pentagram is the higher human energy, aligned with higher divine will, not negatively affected by the human ego. Otherwise, unconscious forces can manipulate you and control you as you have poor control over your own life force without access to this higher intelligent will. Darker energies are more than happy to manipulate you whether you are a government official or a false light priest in a church. Unfortunately, most people are so disconnected from nature and from their higher nature, they are easily manipulated including many powerful people that achieve great success, but success that does not come from these higher energy alignments. The darker pentagram faces down, and this is the face of the Goat. When you tame the beast within you and align with the divine spark within you, you activate a golden aura, which is the third pentagram.
It seems that the red devil and green devil on each side of Pan represent primary duality, the two poles of male and female duality (animus and anima). The two energy channels along our spine. The Female pole is Ida Nadi (Anima) and the male pole is Pingala Nadi (Animus). As you awaken your spiritual energy known as the Kundalini energy, this energy passes up the middle of the spine known as Sushumna Nadi to reach your pineal gland and then you can heal duality back to unity, which activates your personal higher self, Christ energy.
Obviously in the Devil card this is not what is happening. You can see how we can lose power by keeping our life force locked up, as we hide in our egos, and go along with dominant narratives, culture, and beliefs. The more literally you interpret religious documents and even spiritual paths, the harder it can be to get to the truth. I have found that seeking deeper spiritual symbolism in ancient religious documents helpful. I will speak about this more in future blogs. Some may interpret Wirth’s Devil Card as inferior to the Rider-Waite Devil (which is more clearly a negative anti-Christ energy showing only the dark inverted pentagram). Some may also find it troubling and more than a bit weird as if the Wirth Tarot is glorifying the Devil energy. I am sure some do interpret Wirth’s Devil Tarot this way. However, reading Wirth’s own words tell me something else, as he articulates all the possible dark manipulation and is sharing a path for your own spiritual awakening to move beyond your limitations (some your own, some inherited and some forced on you in society). There is much imbedded symbolism to move through in his work. I have had dreams about some of this symbolism as I worked on this blog. I will share those dreams in future blogs.
Wirth describes the Devil card as “The Soul of the World” as the reservoir of all the vitality of all living beings.” People more commonly see this as the Anima Mundi, the energy that connects all of us to nature and to each other. Now, in the pure Devil form, I do not see this is as accurate. When Christ is a Messiah outside of you, you are trapped in your ego and the Devil is the evil Opposer, I do not feel the Anima Mundi is present. However, when you become spiritually enlightened, free your own inner Christ, get your life force flowing and out of chains, that is a different story entirely. There you find your own Anima Mundi. Your snake is no longer lying slithering around in your lower chakras as you surrender your lower conscious mind’s ego (symbolism here is the ouroboros or the snake biting its own tail). The rising kundalini (rising snake) up your spine is the symbolism of your growing healing, wisdom, and enlightenment.
I feel that if enough people connect with their own Anima Mundi, we heal ourselves and the ecocide of the Earth all around us. I feel that finding your tribe will be easier as well.
When I hear the words Anima Mundi, it makes me feel like dancing around the room. It gives new meaning to the words “The Devil Made Me Do It.”
These are just my current opinions and observations. Please use your discernment and find your own truth.
