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.

Abracadabra
2023-10-29 17:00 - 19:00
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

Etheric Cord Cutting Journey

Etheric Cord Cutting Journey

Etheric Cord Cutting Journey

A group hypnosis workshop

Facilitated by @sarah_abdelal_rooteddreamwww.rooteddream.com

Life consists of so much more than the physical world; even though we cannot “see” it, energy surrounds us and connects us with all that exists!

Energetic cords are not restricted by space or time. Some of these cords add value to our lives on this third dimensional plane, and some others limit us from experiencing our unlimited potential version.

Belief systems are the actual set of perceptions from which we live our daily life, those that govern your thoughts, words, and actions.Connected to us through invisible etheric cords.

Healthy cords create a nurturing sharing of information and energy. Unhealthy cords can be a huge drain or a means of limitations.

Every time we transition into a new stage of our lives, we are requested to let go of what once we believed was needed and valuable, trusting in the void that is created and flowing into a new state of existence.

Cutting energetic cords allows us to transit with ease and awareness.

During this Journey you will be guided through a group hypnosis with the help of metaphor therapy to discover a main limiting belief system, understand how it has served you for so long and eventually release it through an inner energetic cord cutting ritual.

Entry is donation based with sliding scale.

"Meetings with Remarkable Men", by Peter Brook in 1979
2023-12-21 19:30 - 22:30
“Meetings with Remarkable Men”, by Peter Brook in 1979.

“Meetings with Remarkable Men” a cinematic masterpiece directed by Peter Brook in 1979, intricately explores the mysterious life of Georges Ivanovich Gurdjieff. Gurdjieff, a mystic with roots in Sufism, unfolds his spiritual journey against the backdrop of diverse encounters with remarkable individuals, reflective of his real-life experiences across various spiritual traditions.

Born in the late 19th century, Gurdjieff’s cinematic portrayal mirrors his historical influence by Sufism, a mystical Islamic practice. The film weaves a narrative that delves into the profound intersections between Gurdjieff’s teachings and Sufi principles. His “Fourth Way” philosophy, a fusion of Eastern and Western ideologies, becomes a focal point, emphasizing conscious evolution, self-awareness, and the holistic integration of mind, body, and emotions.

As a fictionalized account of Gurdjieff’s life, the film masterfully captures the essence of his spiritual quest. It offers audiences a mesmerizing cinematic journey, richly incorporating elements of Sufism and mysticism. Released as an artistic reflection of Gurdjieff’s teachings, the narrative resonates with those seeking profound inner knowledge and transformation.

With Peter Brook at the helm, “Meetings with Remarkable Men” becomes not just a film but an immersive experience, inviting viewers into the intricate tapestry of Gurdjieff’s life and philosophy. Through captivating visuals and a thought-provoking storyline, the film stands as a testament to the enduring allure of spiritual exploration and the quest for higher consciousness.

The screening will be introduced with a short historical and conceptual contextualization by Pablo A. C. (artist, curator, collector), adding a layer of depth to the cinematic experience.

This analytical Tarot readings delves into a perspective where artistic symbolism converges with the richness of art history and symbolic interpretation. Each exploration becomes a meticulous journey, unraveling tarot cards with the same multiplicity and non-linear connection that characterizes rhizomatic thinking.

Inspired by the wealth of art history and underlying meanings, these interpretations resemble a symbolic anatomical dissection, revealing profound layers of signification. The influence of Bataille and his symbolic approach subtly resonates, taking interpretation beyond predictions into a realm that transcends the conventional. Jung’s insights add depth to the exploration of symbols and the unconscious.

This symbolic approach intertwines with the ideas of Bachelard and his poetics of space. Each card becomes a poetic landscape, an invitation to explore the recesses of the unconscious and construct personal meanings. The autopsy is conceived as a symbolic dialogue in space, where images become portals to inner worlds.

At the core of these disembodied autopsy lies the application of rhizomatic thinking, challenging linear structures and fostering a multiplicity of interpretations. Participants immerse themselves in a network of connections, following non-predefined paths in concordance with the intuitive mind.

These individual Tarot readings, tailored for a diverse audience, invite critical contemplation and the personal construction of meaning, maintaining a subtle reverence for the philosophical concepts that influence the understanding of art, its symbols, and rhizomatic thinking.

Nine Years of Conflict: A Shibari and Saxophone Performance
2024-01-09 20:00 - 23:30
Nine Years of Conflict:A Shibari and Saxophone Performance

Join Pixaya, Pedro Cordas, and Saara Rei at the Fool for an improvised Shibari-Saxophone performance, where the trio will work together to form a dialogue between each other using Japanese-inspired rope bondage and sound, shaped by a framework of key actions, objects, and movements inspired by the title, Nine Years of Conflict.

About the performers:

Pixaya aka Ayberk Pedirik is a Corlu born Berlin based contemporary saxophonist, with a classical + jazz background. He mainly focuses on interdisciplinary & improvised performances

"Whispers from Beyond: Death's Shroud in Art, Occult Wisdom, and Alchemy" Art and Occultism Series at “The Fool” Vol. VI
2024-01-12 20:00 - 22:00
“Whispers from Beyond: Death’s Shroud in Art, Occult Wisdom, and Alchemy” Art and Occultism Series at “The Fool” Vol. VI

Continuing with our cycle of occultism and art history in “The Fool,” we have the pleasure of inviting you to embark on a profound exploration of the intricate shroud of death. Woven through the realms of art, occultism, and alchemy, this journey immerses us from the memento mori of ancient Rome to the haunting Danse Macabre of the Middle Ages, where death emerges as a poignant reminder of life’s ephemeral nature.

Within the tarot, the Death card signifies not an end but a spiritual metamorphosis, resonating with the alchemical concept of Nigredo. This initial and transformative stage leads to inner enlightenment, encouraging us to shed outdated beliefs for profound personal evolution—a dark night of the soul before the emergence of renewed understanding in the alchemical journey, mirrored in the transformative nature of death.

As we traverse the corridors of art history, we encounter depictions of vanitas and the macabre that have long fascinated and challenged viewers, inviting reflection on mortality and the cyclical nature of existence.

Exploring necromancy and ancient cultures, we perceive death as a transition rather than an endpoint. In Egypt, death was a journey to eternity, reflected in elaborate funerary practices. Andean cultures celebrated spiritual continuity through rituals, emphasizing a connection between the living and the departed.

This exploration invites contemplation of the symbolism, artistry, and esoteric significance of death throughout history. It urges us to decipher the whispers from beyond, unlocking the secrets within the enigmatic dance between life and death.

This talk is led by J. Pablo Arce Cardozo, artist, collector, and curator.

Occultism in Experimental Film Night
2024-01-26 20:00 - 23:00
Occultism in Experimental Film Night

Experimental cinema and esotericism intersect in their shared pursuit of transcending conventional norms. Both embrace visual abstraction, symbolically rich storytelling, and a departure from traditional structures. Experimental filmmakers employ unconventional techniques, challenging audience expectations, while esoteric themes add an air of mystery and metaphysical exploration. This convergence results in cinematic works that invite contemplation, bridging the tangible and mystical realms.

This evening features three remarkable works that transcend traditional boundaries, inviting you to delve into the surreal, the imaginative, and the visually compelling.

Maya Deren, a trailblazer in avant-garde cinema, presents “Witch’s Cradle,” an exploration of surreal and hypnotic realms that showcases her innovative storytelling and cinematographic techniques. (1944 12:00 Min)

Eric Duvivier’s “La Femme 100 Tetes” takes you on a journey into visual poetry, challenging cinematic norms with imaginative storytelling inspired by Max Ernst’s collage novel. (1967 21:00 min)

Harry Smith’s visionary work, “Heaven and Earth Magic,” (Extract) offers a unique blend of animation and folklore, providing a glimpse into his esoteric symbolism and intricate hand-drawn and collage animation. (1957, 10:00 Min)

Join us on this journey through experimental landscapes crafted by visionary filmmakers, each introduced and contextualized by Juan Pablo Arce Cardozo @laterceramano , Artist , collector, curator.

Enjoy the exploration of these captivating worlds that push the boundaries of cinematic expression.

The Magick of St. Valentine a deity workshop and séance
2024-02-13 19:00 - 21:00
The Magick of St. Valentinea deity workshop and séance

In preparation of St. Valentine‘s day we are gathering the evening before to equip you with techniques and rituals to work with the 3rd century Roman saint of love: Valentine.

The first part of the evening will be a practical workshop and discussion about how to build a connection with St. Valentine and work magically with him regarding all matters of the heart. A big focus will be self love and therefore this workshop isn’t only for people dating or in a relationship. This is for everyone. And you’ll know what to do the day after, no matter if you are in a relationship or not. Valentine will be with you.

All the techniques are based on the work Marc did with the saint after he got initiated and attuned last year in a small church in Switzerland which guards the bone reliquary of St. V.

Since that day Valentine is an invaluable member of Marc’s spirit team as he shares exercises, channels prayers and brings forth evidential mediumship.

Towards the end of the evening we will be sitting with spirit and connecting with St. Valentine in the context of a magically ritualistic séance to step into the wisdom of St. Valentine.One lucky guest will have the opportunity to regress in a deep Theta state to 3rd century Rome and witness first hand the life and times of Valentine to bring us his wisdom about all things of the heart.

As a surprise: We end the evening with a little something that Marc brought back from the small church in Switzerland that will serve as a blessing and attunement to St. Valentine‘s energy current which allows every participant to continue working with him in their personal practice after this day if they so wish.

Workshop + Séance15€ Donation

Additionally Marc is available for private 20 min. consultations 1:1 before the evening starts proper. If you are interested in a focussed intuitive reading session involving St. Valentine as well as your personal angelic guardian of love them this is for you. If you’re serious about taking your love life back into your hands then reach out via DM to schedule your appointment.

Il giorno in cui l’umanità perse il naso

Il giorno in cui l’umanità perse il naso è un intrigante e variegato volume di racconti, dove si viaggia attraverso dimensioni sconosciute e realtà alternative in cui l’assurdo si fonde col fantastico, dove il normale è sovvertito e l’inaspettato è la norma. In questo libro si respira lo stile inconfondibile dei classici della fantascienza e delle storie distopiche de “Ai confini della realtà”, in cui l’umanità si trova di fronte a sfide spaziali, robot ribelli e invasioni aliene, i paradossi sono all’ordine del giorno, e il confine tra sogno e realtà è sottile come una lama.

Sebastiano Diciassette è nato a Bari dove si è laureato in Lingue e Letterature Straniere.

Molti dei suoi racconti sono stati pubblicati in varie antologie e diverse riviste, come: “Short Stories”, “PRIVATE” , “Future Shock” e “Futuro Europa”.

"Chappaqua": Projection
2024-03-08 20:00 - 23:00
“Chappaqua”

“Chappaqua”, is a 1967 American drama film, written and directed by Conrad Rooks. This cinematic kaleidoscopic piece, throws us into the whirlwinds of chaos and self-discovery. It’s a film that breathes the air heavy with cigarettes and jazz, where the protagonist, lost amidst the fog of addiction and spiritual longing, seeks redemption in the darkest corners of his soul.

Inspired by the vibrant beatnik scene of the ’60s, “Chappaqua” plunges us into a world of excess and rebellion against the established norms. Countercultural luminaries make their presence felt in the film, including figures like William S. Burroughs, Allen Ginsberg, alongside the enigmatic musician Moondog, weaving a tapestry of defiance and introspection.

Through a dizzying montage and fragmented narrative, the film drags us through alleys of self-destruction and moments of spiritual ecstasy. It’s a journey where the mind blurs between reality and hallucination, as we confront the inner demons and uncomfortable truths that lie at the depths of our psyche.

The music, a fusion of the daring and provocative energy of The Fugs and the transcendent melodies of Ravi Shankar, saturates the narrative, adding an additional layer of rebellion and subversion to the experience. “Chappaqua” is a symphony of chaos and beauty, an ode to the freedom and anarchy of the human spirit. It’s a reflection of the rebellious and visionary spirit of a generation that refused to conform to the established order and sought a deeper meaning in a world in constant transformation, where drugs served as both an escape and a path to self-destruction.The screening will be complemented with a brief introduction and historical contextualization by J. Pablo Arce C. @latercera_mano (Artist, collector and independent curator)The film will be shown with the original audio
