Samhain
2023-10-31 20:00 - 23:30 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
You are warmly welcomed to join us on the 31st of October for our Samhain celebration: “Eternal Spirits Gathering.”

As we step into this transitional phase, marking the midpoint between autumn and winter, it is a time to embrace a gradual slowing down. With lengthening nights and the encroaching cold, Samhain signifies the commencement of our journey into the depths of the subterranean world. Here, we adapt our pace and embark on an exploration of uncharted territories.

As this special occasion approaches, the boundary between our world and the underworld thins, providing a unique opportunity to connect with our ancestors and the realm of the deceased. Together, we will co-create a collective altar, where you can contribute with flowers, fruits, pictures of the departed, or any items that hold personal significance to you. From 8:00 PM to 9:30 PM, engage in Tarot Readings by @arte.trinum From 9:30 PM to 11:00 PM Film showcase of “The Burial of Kojo”Let’s gather to honor those who have passed and, in doing so, remind ourselves of the precious gift of life.

Join us at Skalitzer Str. 43, THE FOOL, at 20:00 (8:00 PM). This event operates on a donation basis, starting at 5 €.

Abracadabra
2023-10-29 17:00 - 19:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Abracadabra means “as is spoken so is created”, and this magick word has been repeated for at least 2000 years.

Some words are repeated over centuries because they speak to a truth about ourselves. In this session we will open up our magickal and imaginal sensitivity and explore the story of Merlin the Magician. It’s a story for those who look deeper than the superficial to the forces beneath the surface that move us, forces we can bring into the light. It is for those seers who may not be so skilled in the games that people play, and have been targeted for it. And it is a story of growing into our power and finding the words that direct the story where we want it to go. 2 hours

Hypno-magick: Accessing hidden powers with trance

Every living human is a success story spanning millions of years of evolution and development. Encoded in your DNA (and perhaps elsewhere) are the means of overcoming a vast array of challenges including famine and war, fierce competition, disease, predators and threats of every description. In trance we can access these powers, and bring them into our lives to help find our inner resilience and gain the intelligence and instincts of our power animals so we can confront any adversity with confidence.

Hypno-divination with Danny Nemu

Hypno-divination

23rd-29th October (by appointment)

Private one-to-one divination sessions, working with tarot, palmistry and trance to uncover our potentials and bring in the outcomes we want. 40 minute or 60 minute sessions available.

Danny’s unique approach to divination brings together two strands of his magickal practice:

25 years of experience of tarot and palmistry, and hypnotic trance induction to help the client directly access intelligences that are usually beyond our reach. The results can be mind-blowing.

“ Danny’s palm and tarot card readings are incredibly helpful and specific. I came to him with questions, wanderings of my heart and mind. Danny used his skills as a palm reader, intuitive, and therapist to show me the answers to my questions. His guidance validated what I knew in my heart to be true and showed me paths that I have never imagined. I’m deeply grateful to Danny for his compassionate and caring presence. I felt safe and cared for the entire reading. I highly recommend Danny for a reading and will certainly come back.” -Kristin-

“Wow!! That was a much needed reset, thank you so much! I haven’t had a reset that deep since India where I had a kundalini awakening or years later – deepening in Peru… And then the journey through the forest to meet a creature was not only magical, it was informative and a tool for my spiritual toolbox that I’ll have for life! This creature represented me in all ways full with my eccentricities, without any judgment or criticism.” -Caz-

Occult Features of Anarchism: Lecture and Discussion
2023-10-14 17:00 - 19:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Occult Features of Anarchism: Lecture and Discussion

By exploring hidden correspondences between classical anarchism, Renaissance magic and New Age movements, Lagalisse questions Leftist attachments to “secular” politics, in which cosmological premises have simply been mystified.

Inspired by anthropological fieldwork within contemporary anarchist movements, Lagalisse challenges “atheism” among today’s anarchist activists insofar as it poses practical challenges for anti-colonial coalition politics, while her book also works to intervene in debates around “conspiracy theory” by illustrating the actual relationship between revolutionism, pantheistic occult philosophy, and the clandestine fraternity—or “secret society”.

By studying anarchism as a historical object, Lagalisse also shows how the development of Leftist theory and practice within clandestine masculine “public” spheres continues to inform 21st century anarchist understandings of the ‘political’, in which men’s oppression by the state becomes the prototype for power in general. We come to behold how both gender and religion became “privatized” in radical counter-culture, with this historical process being in dialectic with the “privitization” of gender and religion by the modern nation-state.

Erica Lagalisse is an anthropologist, heteronymic writer, and author of “Occult Features of Anarchism – With Attention to the Conspiracy of Kings and the Conspiracy of the Peoples” (2019).

Divine Embeddings in The Fool

Divine Embeddings in The Fool

A cosy night with an occult talk, discussion and drinks in Berlin’s cosiest esoteric venue. This will be an extended version of the talk for the Occulture Conference 2023.

THE GARLAND OF LETTERS: SACRED ALPHABETS AND AI LANGUAGE MODELSKarin ValisFrom Lord Shiva’s Tandava to the multidimensional vector space of Word Embeddings used in the state-of-the-art generative AI models, the divine essence of language unravels. The dance of creation continues, inside the boney rigs of A100 industrial-grade GPUs into realms we are just beginning to imagine.

In this talk, we first look at the parallels between Sanskrit and Ancient Hebrew and the belief they are the basic building blocks of the universe. Then we try to conceptualise the creation process as a mixing of primal energies in multidimensional coordinate systems, and at the end, we look at the problem of word embeddings used to encode language in large language models such as GPT. What parallels can we find between the naming magick, sacred alphabets and computational intelligence?

Adore Your Shadows
2023-09-21 19:00 - 21:30 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Adore Your Shadows

“One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”

Carl Jung

Carl Jung defined the shadow as the “sum of all personal and collective psychic elements which, because of their incompatibility with the chosen conscious attitude, are denied expression in life.”

Shadows are the qualities within us, that were through our upbringing not valued, appreciated and surely not approved.

To become to “good Child” lots had to be compromised, initial parts of our inner being shattered, and strong sparks of our personalities pushed deep down into non-existence.

But are we complete with only our light?

Are we able to navigate healthily through a reality of duality by only revealing half of our own dual charisma?

Come and discover.

About how each chakra has its own shadows!And how to use these shadows to master this dimension.Transcending all of them into blessings.In a non-judgmental, loving embracing space!

The Kinbaku Salon

The Kinbaku Salon

A new beginning

The Kinbaku Society of Berlin and Discover Kinbaku invite you to The Fool to celebrate four years of existence and 15 KSB magazines full of research, culture, fiction, and inspiring graphics and photography.

This is a new beginning. We shredded skin. We shifted shape. We are still here. We are back to be present in Berlin.

This Kinbaku Salon is an opening. It is educational and inspiring. It is an interactive space where we use multimedia, speech, pictures, and video – and open the possibility for exchange and learning. It is for everyone who wants to know more about the origins and history of Japanese Bondage, Kinbaku, or Shibari, who like underground arts and culture – and who wants to socialize in an inspiring environment.

Program:

Keynote: The art of producing a sex-positive niche magazine – from Kitan Klub to KSB Magazine * Poetry * Fine electronic music * Questions&Answers

Art on the walls:

Selected originals from 4 years / 15 KSB magazines, with a special surprise for all collectors

Occult Talk: Kinbaku Rituals
2023-09-12 20:00 - 22:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Occult Talk: Kinbaku Rituals

Japanese-inspired rope bondage, often referred to as Shibari or Kinbaku became tremendously popular in the West over the past 5 – 10 years.

It is used for sex (or as foreplay for sex) but also for recreational purposes, to dance, as performative arts, for installations, or in general: as sensual art.

But what happens, when two people tie together?

Sometimes there is no better description than: „magic happens”. Engaging in a bondage session can be a profound transformative experience.

How can we understand the magical connection, the energy flow, that often happens between rigger and model?

And finally: what does it take to create a stronger ritual when engaging with ropes, not to deplete the potential into shallow consumerism?

We are going to ask ourselves this and other questions on Tuesday, September 12th with Alexander MA (Kinbaku Society of Berlin) at The Fool.

About Occult Talk:The Occult Talk is a gathering meant as a round table style to discuss together a proposed topic.The aim is to break the usual schema of having a teaching figure and intimidated students. We want to make the occult less elitist, so anyone can feel free to participate no matter how much experience they have.

Exploring Subconscious Collage, Alchemical Imagery, and Esoteric Magic in Avant-Garde Art.

Exploring Subconscious Collage, Alchemical Imagery, and Esoteric Magic in Avant-Garde Art.

Art and Occultism Series at “The Fool” Vol. V

In this exciting new talk, we cordially invite you to embark on a profound journey into the realm where subconscious collage, alchemical symbolism, and esoteric magic converge within the realm of avant-garde art. Inspired by the elusive quest for hidden truths, our presentation will delve deep into the intricate interplay between collage and cut-up techniques and the rich tapestry of meaning woven by magic and alchemy.

Drawing upon the creative works of visionaries such as Max Ernst and William Burroughs, our talk will unfurl the intricate threads that bind magical imagery to the concept of collage. We will unravel how the seemingly random fusion of visual elements and carefully chosen words can be decoded as a profound symbol of alchemical transformation and spiritual metamorphosis. Furthermore, we will contemplate how the rearrangement and fragmentation of text mirror the layered essence of reality, mirroring the principles found in alchemical thought.

At the heart of our discussion lies the profound impact of esoteric thought upon collage and cut-up techniques, illuminating how these artistic methods skillfully capture the essence of the enigmatic and mystical. Through a meticulous analysis of literary and artistic gems from the avant-garde movement, as well as the esoteric theories of the era, we unveil how the subconscious collage becomes a portal to dimensions that transcend surface understanding, often intertwined with the enigma and enchantment of magical transformations.

This event operates on a donation basis.

(for people who have attended either of the previous induction sessions)An opportunity to return to the temple and explore some of the other curiosities – the bookshelves, the alchemist’s lab, magical tools and whatever else your imagination provides. Once we have each explored something that calls our attention, those who are willing to lead an induction can introduce the group to what they found and allow space to engage with the mystery. Note that this will be a respectful visit conducted with the best of intentions, proper banishing protocols and psychic hygiene. There is power in the temple and power in our minds, and guardians will be invited along to ensure that we only access what we can handle.

The study of the tarot cards is a study of a lifetime.

With countless decks to practice from, a rich and diverse history to unpack, and a deep philosophy that is every-unfolding, it is a discipline in which even the most experience of readers can feel like beginners.

it is a perfect practice in which all can learn from each other, working together to deepen their understanding of the cards, no matter which deck, philosophy, or culture you are loyal.

The fool thus offers its space to support a tarot study group. The intention of this study group is for all participants to come and learn together, sharing their knowledge, perspective, and experience with each other.

There is no teacher, but rather a loose format that will be used to facilitate discussion and practice for all.

During the first meeting, participants will brainstorm on different ways they would like to use the time of the study group, and from this brainstorming, a schedule will be made for the first set of meetings. Once the schedule is set, willing participants will volunteer to help facilitate one of the six meetings. Those facilitating a meeting, will then meet together and discuss what they would like to do during that time with the group to help facilitate group discussion and practice around that topic.

Facilitating a meeting does not mean being the teacher: facilitators rather help the group by managing group discussions, practices, and time management for the group. It’s more like you are helping the group to stick together as you all study together. And don’t worry, if you are not interested in being a facilitator for a topic, then you don’t have to!

We will aim for facilitation to be done by a small group of 2-3 people rather than one person alone.

After the agenda is set during the first meeting, we will then have the remaining meetings for those interested in studying together on the decided themes to bring their decks and join!

Occult Talk – Is there a Veil?
2023-08-08 19:30 - 22:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Occult Talk – Is there a Veil?

Is there some “Thing, current, presence, function of reality, antimagick agenda” (as a fellow occultist expressed it) that inhibits Magick? Does something separate us from the “Otherworld”? What about the Veils of Physicality and Paroketh in the kabbalistic Four Worlds model?

Also, was Magick much more powerful in ancient times? Does the strength of Magick fluctuate in time and space?

Finally, if we think that there is something, what exactly does it do? Is it active or passive? And most importantly, what can we do against it? How can we get to More Magick?

We are going to ask ourselves this and other questions on Tuesday August 8th with Naoxar at The Fool.

When should we use control to manifest our desires and when should we let go of it to allow the universe to do his will or obtain a state of trance.

“WHEN MASKS FALL”

We all know the word masquerade, posture, we know the little rituals and preparations for events or special occasional events from upbringing. We dress up and adapt, we put on the party mask and over the years we develop dozens of different masks for every occasion around us in society and in circles of friends, but also at work and even with friends and with our loved ones to adapt, to adapt. then there are the moments when we wonder and ask ourselves who and with which mask we really connect with our ego. Swens uses videos and images to show how masks are falling, people are frozen in the sub, edge, and lust space. The images show how beautiful, but also intense, letting go can be. In a panel, we want to talk about how experiences of these conditions can be, are they dangerous, does the mask really serve to protect you in everyday life, what is beauty actually?

When masks fall.

The project “Emotional – a moment full of emotions”is intended to show the variety of emotions, especially from the point of view of non-verbal communication. Authentic, unfiltered emotions enable us to get in touch with ourselves and with other people. In our everyday life, however, we have learned to hide or control the expression of certain feelings. This control is shed for a moment as the protagonists show their authentic, emotional selves. An important focus was also on diversity, i.e. that people of different age groups, body types, and ethnicity are portrayed. Their expressions were captured in photos and short video clips. The presentation of the photo and video material aims to ensure that viewers are confronted with authentic, unfiltered emotional expressions over a longer period of time – a situation that rarely occurs in everyday life. In this way, everyone can feel and explore for themselves what prolonged viewing of these expressions triggers in them.

Swen Brandy (CARNIVORE) BerlinConcepter/Photographer/Artist/Kink-EducatorSwen Brandy is a 45-year-old photographer and artist from Germany. In his playshootings, he combines BDSM scenarios with photography, often resulting in personal challenges and intense experiences for the models. In 2020, he began creating short films and clips in addition to his photography work, and publishes them under the label Carnividz. Aside from his shootings, he works as a graphic designer/Art Director and passes on his knowledge on body and mind work as a kink educator.

About PlayshootingYour mind is your challengeFor me photography means primarily working with a person, instead of just taking a picture. The focus is not on the arrangement of the setting or the person, it’s on the mental state as well as the experience of the model. I want to get them in a mood, where they can let go and show a side which is different from everyday life. Therefore, I lead them into a scenario that forces them to release.

I love to work with the mindset of a person. By setting certain impulses the scene becomes suddenly real. Based on the preferences of the model, those scenarios can include pain, domination, physical and mental restriction as well as different kinds of challenges. In this regard I give them the chance to explore their limits, by leading them from their comfort zone to the borderline. I start slowly and increase the intensity bit by bit until they reach the edge of self-control and thus the state of release. My favourite attempt of bringing someone into that state is by creating challenges. Depending on the person, this can include the endurance of high impact, intense pain or other stimulation, a difficult task, the confrontation with fear or discomfort, intense physical or mental restrictions or a combination of those approaches. Of course, this kind of experience is negotiated before the shooting: there is a comprehensive conversation about how intense the scenario might become, and individual boundaries stay respected.

During such a scenario most people experience an extension of their limits: while struggling with the situation in the beginning, they adapt to it bit by bit until they let go. This often ends up in them being able to handle a higher degree of intensity than they originally expected. They experience that they can go beyond their proposed limits, and that “the end” is actually not the end. That’s the moment when ataraxia sets in.In my photos I capture the states that everyone passes while going through such a scenario. It creates a specific mood and body language as well as authentic emotions.Swen BrandyCARNIVORE
