Occult Talk: Riding the Witch Wave

From the broomstick riding witches of medieval times to the witch hunts of the 17th century and the “witchsploitation” cinema of the 1960s and 1970s, this talk explores the origins of this gendered stereotype as well as the cultural renaissance and the modern allure of the female witch.

At the heart of this inquiry is the question: What makes a witch?

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.

Occult Talk: Shamanism, Actionism, and Magic: a reconnection to the spiritual through performance Art.
2023-05-23 20:00 - 22:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Occult Talk: Shamanism, Actionism, and Magic: a reconnection to the spiritual through performance Art.

The European artistic avant-gardes of the second half of the 20th century were profusely nourished by references to spiritual transcendence and animistic search. Beyond the simple iconoclastic stance and the intentional desecration of symbols of established religions lies an individual artistic and spiritual quest at the same time as a search to transform the social and political environment from the depth of the magical/artistic act as a reconfigurative tool of reality.Artistic movements such as “Fluxus” or “Vienna Actionism” have influenced our perception of contemporary art and currently belong to the mainstream of art historiography.

Beyond this historiographical definition, however, we are interested in asking questions about the relationship of these movements with occult practice from a creative and critical perspective.

Rituals, visons, magical objects, sacred spaces and times, are some of the terms that intersect transversally between the Art/magic territories.

We will analyze the work of artists of stature such as Joseph Beuys, Hermann Nitsch, Rudolf Schwarzkogler, and Günter Brus among others; focusing specifically on ritual practice and esotericism.

We will also tangentially touch more diffuse topics such as hyperstition and autopoiesis. Seasoned, of course, with a bit of critical theory from our own personal peripheries.

This is not a lecture, it is a space to share experiences and learn together.It is a talk open to all who are interested, regardless of personal practice or level of experience on the subject.

This talk will be led by Juan Pablo Arce Cardozo Artist/Collector/Curator

Doors open at 7:00 p.m. Event starts at 8:00 p.m.Donation based event.

Astrology: Birth Charts Reading (Workshop)
2023-05-19 20:00 - 22:30 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Astrology: Birth Charts Reading (Workshop)

In the workshop we will learn some easy tips to read your own birth charts and also others; in a simple way that reveals the underlying motivations and desires that shape your behavior.

Through this understanding, you’ll be empowered to make positive changes in your life… You’ll gain clarity on your life purpose, relationships, and career, and also learn how to navigate the challenges that may come your way.

When astrology is done right, you should have more compassion for yourself after doing your birth chart as empathy is directly correlated to how much you understand someone, including yourself.

You come to understand that we all have different strengths and things to bring to the world, and there isn’t one unique path.

Flesh for Fantasy - Reclaiming Forbidden Sexual Desires

Flesh for Fantasy – Reclaiming Forbidden Sexual Desires

curated by: *absolute.minority

hosted by: ivanka mmmm

2hrs facilitated discussion & screening (music & mixer follows)

What beautiful monsters lurk in the shadows of your repressed imagination? Which wet paths of erotic discovery are you yearning to become acquainted with? Gloryholes, cruising, sex swings, tentacle porn, fisting, rosebudding, hentai, shibari, suspension, unbirthing, orgy edge play and the fist goes on.. the most interesting fantasies of course remain the most personal perversions.

Socially disapproved sexual desires, fantasies and practices are known as “perversions,” “deviance” or “paraphilias.” Perversions were medicalised in the mid nineteenth century until 1886, when German-Austrian psychiatrist, KrafftEbing, cemented human libidinal wildness into sterile, clinical captivity within the tome, ”Psychopathia Sexualis”. He argued that “perversions” were diseases of the “sexual instinct,” involving deriving sexual pleasure from imagining and fantasizing about non-reproductive acts. The church in parallel had freaky “mortification of the flesh“ practices in order to repent for sins and share in the Passion of Jesus – the early BDSM prototypes, yet now they condemn drag queens reading to children.

Therefore dear wetterosexuals (those aroused by that which makes them wetter), you are invited to an evening of deep, deep diving into collective kink, forbidden fantasies and the inner libidinal landscapes that simmer below our waking life consciousness.

Tarot Study Group with Saara
2023-05-15 19:30 - 21:30 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
Tarot Study Group with Saara

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.

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!

Swen Brandy (CARNIVORE) BerlinConcepter/Photographer/Artist/Kink-Educator

Swen 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 challenge

For 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.

Eggs in Magick

Join Marc for a deep dive beyond the shell and into the infamous symbol of healing power. Learn how eggs are used in magick, divination, energy work and healing.

'Mediumistic art' (Channeling Phenomena and creativity)
2023-04-25 20:00 - 22:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
‘Mediumistic art’(Channeling Phenomena and creativity)

Creative possession, supernatural inspiration, artistic epiphany, automatic writing and drawing, channeling, cut-up, mediumistic art.

Since the dawn of human creativity, the connection between the transcendental world and artistic expression has been that of a constant dialogue.

Various techniques for “channeling” visions from other worlds and magical realities have seeped into our contemporary culture and have determined not only the avant-garde of art but have also shaped the methodologies of magic as we know it today.

Names like Austin Osman Spare, Hilma af Klint, William Burroughs or Ema Kuntz, just to name a few, are today solid references to this connection between magic and creativity.

In this occult talk we will share our personal experiences exploring various creative techniques in relation to our magical practice: Creative Synchronicities, Unexpected Manifestations, Mysterious Signs.

NOTE: This is not a workshop or a master class, it is a space where we will horizontally share our concerns and possible certainties on the subject.

We will conclude the experience by creating a Cadavre exquis (exquisite corpse) among the attendees who wish to participate.This Occult talk will be the starting point for a series of talks on art and the occult over the next few months at The Fool.

Blindfolded Dance Performance by @movementunlimited

“While I am dreaming and longing for sleep” is the third piece of the ongoing series “Multi-Polarities”. This blindfolded improvisation dance performance series consists of changing monologues revealing the dark and suppressed thoughts and fantasies we all have within us. A provocation and reflection of the inner conflict between desire, moral and reality of human beings, aiming to accept and find friends in their Multi-Polarities. Pushing the body to exhilaration to reach a paradox state between control and delirium at the same time in order to find release, pleasure and joy inside extremity and pain.”I would kill again if I would set free and I liked what i did.You don’t have to love what you’re used to.You are used to me.My mind is a haze.Excitement, fear, pleasure… all mixed.They were a part of me.I want to remember their appearance.Their physical beauty.I wanted to keep something if I couldn’t keep them here.A place where i collect my thoughts and feed my obsession.There was no use trying to fight it.I was death and that was the only act that gave me satisfaction…”Performer:Felicitas Thomashttps://www.movementunlimited.deOpen door: 20:00Performance: 21:00

Tarot Skills Mastermind

Shouldn’t Tarot be your best friend and a trusted tool to help you when you need it most?

Shouldn’t it be effortless after all of this studying? Especially when it’s urgent and you need new perspectives, outlooks and answers quick!

Instead the cards just tense up and give you more questions than answers.

Instead of helpful new perspectives you kinda freeze and spend hours in Tarot books, manuals and flimsy brochures that give you vague ideas and complicated metaphors that sound profound but are seldomly helpful.

So if you are done feeling stuck in all things tarot and divination join us for the Tarot Skills Mastermind Group.

You won’t receive a magic bullet to solve all your problems but you will get access to a decade of intense spiritual life coaching experience with tarot and other oracles that helped Marc and hundreds of his clients. His intuitive and rebellious yet systematic approach to readings brought Marc a regular segment on national psychic TV and even an engagement by Amazon music. Reading professionally forced Marc to develop top notch systems and a problem solving mindset that doesn’t lead you astray in high pressure situations.

For the duration of this evening, your Tarot problems will be his and you’ll have the chance to land on the hot seat and get all your strategic questions answered. Let’s hone our Tarot skills together.

What tarot spread or lay-out doesn’t make sense to you? How should you best answer a complex question? What does this card mean in this context? How do I best shuffle?

Bring your favourite deck and questions and together we will help each other. You’ll be in a room with other experienced readers who can give you new perspectives and tips. This group is a safe space for learning, experimenting and skill development.

All questions allowed. 100% honesty and transparency.

A space for beginners and experts alike to network, teach and learn.

Sensory connection: ritual body painting with herbal dyes

with Mela Verde

The workshop:

We will start off with an initial connection circle to discover our own body and the other person’s body using the paintbrush as an antenna.Body painting is used to seek a type of communication that goes beyond words, as if the deepest feelings were transpiring from the skin, blending with the paints. Connecting with oneself and one’s surroundings creates a flow of emotional interchanges.

Each participant will be able to express themselves freely whilst searching for new communication channels as well as listening carefully to the other.

We will provide natural body paints created especially for the event, which have been made using dyeing herbs and essential oil compositions.

Duration: 3h approx. plus 30/40 min (at your own discretion) for relaxation.

What to bring:A mat or rug, a plain blanket (better if dark), comfortable clothes such as shorts and a short-sleeved T-shirt.

Please note:Blankets will be spread out on the floor, in order to create a defined and comfortable space for the whole group.Paints may stain fabrics due to the presence of Henna

Info about the facilitator:MelaVerde is an artist and performer from Rome. She has combined her pedagogical training in art therapies with the study of ritual body painting, seeking new forms of communication, listening and emotional expression.

"Magick Latern Night Vol. I"
2023-04-07 20:00 - 22:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
“Magick Latern Night Vol. I”

On this occasion we are pleased to present in “The Fool” two paradigmatic short films from the avant-garde scene and both strongly impregnated with occult references, oneirism, archetypal imagery, borderline surrealism, enigmatic symbolism, and rituality in an approach to the cinematographic medium as a true magical tool.

We will introduce the essential aspects of both films, a short historical contextualization, some relevant biographical data, but above all we will immerse ourselves in the fascinating concatenation of events related to the magic that both films invoked and subsequently unleashed to determinely influence audiovisual culture to this day. .

“Meshes of the Afternoon” (1943) directed by Maya Deren.“MESHES OF THE AFTERNOON” is one of the most influential works in American experimental cinema. A non-narrative work, it has been identified as a key example of the “trance film,” in which a protagonist appears in a dreamlike state, and where the camera conveys his or her subjective focus”

‎”The Wormwood Star” (1956) directed by Curtis Harrington.“A portrait of artist, actress, poet and occultist Marjorie Cameron: an artist. A poet. A muse. A cartographer for the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the war. A member of the propaganda machine. An occultist. An actress. Perhaps the Whore of Babylon.”

We will accompany the night with red wine in honor of Babalon.

The evening will end with a set of underground music from the 60s and 70s related to the occult.

doors open at 7:00 p.m., film starts at 8:00 p.m.

BUTOH Workshop: Dancing an Imaginary Body w/ Leonardo Sbabo
2023-03-26 15:00 - 18:00 | The Fool, Skalitzer Str. 43, Berlin, 10997, Germany
BUTOH Workshop: Dancing an Imaginary Body w/ Leonardo Sbabo

Through guided and free visualisations, we will embark on a path of the embodiment of the inner image.

How to transform visual inputs into dance?

How to use visualisation as an engine for physical creation?If one allows the body space to act, one can understand many things about the deeper state of consciousness and one’s psychological and energetic blocks. Putting them into dance is the necessary ritual step to transmute them through magical action.

In this workshop we will explore imaginary places within ourselves to notice emerging bodily impulses. Through the absence of movement, we will enhance its roots, and through the reduction of our being, we will welcome a dance that originates elsewhere. We will then work with the body and the elements with an alchemical and symbolic but also material and concrete approach, stimulating a dream-like perception capable of creating a personal and ritual dance.We welcome everybody interested in researching new sources and modalities for body expression, whether you are a dancer or beginner and want to explore evocative and cathartic capacities of the body.

Leonardo Sbabo is a performance artist and Butoh dancer focusing his research on ritual dance and ontological and embodied queerness.Alongside various physical explorations, he devotes himself to studying human cosmologies, mystery practices and esoteric knowledge to release the multidimensional energy dormant in all bodies.

OCCULT TALK: ScryingOccult Talk // Scrying - intro by @snake.priestess

OCCULT TALK: ScryingOccult Talk // Scrying – intro by @snake.priestess

Scrying has been used since ancient times to gain information, divine the past, present and future and connect with spirits.

From traditional Oil Gazing, Black Mirror Scrying to Pyromancy – various methods have been applied in the early civilisations of Mesopotamia, Ancient Egypt and Greece.

Whereas scrying conducted by the priests was highly esteemed by the head of the states, it became widely overshadowed especially in the Western world with the enforcement of Christianity. Only a few truth-seeking alchemists and wise women continued with the old practices until the early modern age at the expense of being persecuted.

Despite the proliferation of a materialistic worldview brought in later by science, occult perspectives didn’t become extinct. In the 19th century French occultist Eliphas Levi put forward the term of the Astral light meaning that images of things and persons are preserved in the astral light and can be evoked through scrying. This notion finds likewise expression in the theosophical concept of the Akashic Records, a compendium of all universal events, thoughts, words, emotions and intent ever to have occurred in the past and present.

In this talk we want to explore the ancient art of scrying. Discuss theories, practices and share our experiences. The many ways in which messages may present themselves, how to develop the intuitive senses and evoke trance states. And what are the potentials of those concepts brought in by the great occultists and where does it end?

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.

Doors open at 7pmTalk 8-10pm (at closed doors)

Individual Palmistry Readings // with Danny Nemu

Of all the divination practices, palm reading, also known as palmistry or chiromancy, is one of the most highly regarded, albeit difficult to grasp (pun definitely intended). Simply put, palmistry is the art of analyzing the physical features of the hands to interpret personality characteristics and predict future happenings. Within palm reading, hands are considered portals that shed invaluable insight.

Hands-on hypno-magick: trance session about ritual and hypnosis with Danny Nemu

Hypno-magick in Theory and Practice (3)

PRACTICE:Hands-on hypno-magick: trance session about ritual and hypnosis

Trance can take you wherever you want to go, from the alchemist’s lab to the jungle maloca, and if you forget your wand you can just imagine yourself a new one! This session begins with a visit to the magician’s house to cast a circle and a triangle, and then we will build our own rituals and test their effects on each other. We will also explore how hypnosis can be used with divination, by projecting through the keys of the tarot, and by grounding our desires for the future in the powerhouse of the unconscious mind.
