Just wanted to share my new blog with you all. I've linked to Laura's article on Political Ponerology. Can I also put a link to Sott in the margin?

OK, I've managed to get the SotT image link in the margin, but I'm still working on moving the link log from the header section to the margin. So if there are other bloggers who would like to exchange links, please be patient. I've just posted my third article at: http://www.onomatopea.com/dblog/articolo.asp?articolo=8
 
Hi Everyone,

I've just posted another short article with song lyrics. If you have any suggestions for linking text with Sott or Cass articles please let me know. Thanks.

The article is here: http://www.onomatopea.com/dblog/articolo.asp?articolo=9
 
I'm working on a short blog article and I'm looking for something to link to the word ponerized. I remember reading one of Laura's blog articles about ponerology a while back, but don't know how to go about finding it.

I'd also like to link to something on self-observation, and identifying the different facets of the personality that get 'wired in' during the first few years of life.

Any suggestions?

This post by Laura is good for describing early childhood wiring. Perhaps you could use some concepts from it:

Oh yeah, that's a good one! Thank you. Rather than re-invent the wheel, I think I'll keep my blog post short and hopefully thought provoking, and just link to more in depth articles written by those with more knowledge than myself.

Could someone tell me how to do a search on Laura's blog for articles about ponerology?
 
Wow, it's really amazing how much writing Laura manages to do, and all of it so incredibly high content. I just browsed around a bit and found some things in the ponerology blog as well as post cards from the edge of reality. Here's the link to the article: http://www.onomatopea.com/dblog/articolo.asp?articolo=11 Please feel free to make suggestions, and thanks again for the help.
 
I've just posted a new article called 'On the Run from Doomsday' with song lyrics. There are lots of links, but I would also like to link 'Catastrophic prophecies' to one of Laura's articles on cyclical catastrophe, and 'evil magician' to the Gurdjieff story if someone would be so kind as to help me find them. Your feedback is also welcome.
 
You could just paste the story about the evil magician into your blog. Here it is:

ISOTM said:
"There is an Eastern tale which speaks about a very rich magician who had a great many sheep. But at the same time this magician was very mean. He did not want to hire shepherds, nor did he want to erect a fence about the pasture where his sheep were grazing. The sheep consequently often wandered into the forest, fell into ravines, and so on, and above all they ran away, for they knew that the magician wanted their flesh and skins and this they did not like.

"At last the magician found a remedy. He hypnotized his sheep and suggested to them first of all that they were immortal and that no harm was being done to them when they were skinned, that, on the contrary, it would be very good for them and even pleasant; secondly he suggested that the magician was a good master who loved his flock so much that he was ready to do anything in the world for them; and in the third place he suggested to them that if anything at all were going to happen to them it was not going to happen just then, at any rate not that day, and therefore they had no need to think about it. Further the magician suggested to his sheep that they were not sheep at all; to some of them he suggested that they were lions, to others that they were eagles, to others that they were men, and to others that they were magicians.

"And after this all his cares and worries about the sheep came to an end. They never ran away again but quietly awaited the time when the magician would require their fleshand skins."
About Laura's article, I'm not sure which one you are referring to. Here's a few to choose from:

And there is the Younger Dryas Impact and the Cycles of Cosmic Catastrophe, not written by Laura:

Thanks so much for your help, Beau! All set now. Here's the link: http://www.onomatopea.com/dblog/articolo.asp?articolo=12
 
Hi,

I would like to use the following excerpt from SHotW for my next blog article. Would that be ok, and if so, is there a preferred book review I could link to?

In the oldest archaeological finds, the Goddess was represented by birds and wavy symbols that indicated water and/or energy. These same wavy lines are retained as the symbol of the Astrological sign of Aquarius which may be the oldest extant symbol of the Great Mother Goddess.

But suddenly, at a certain point, around 5000 years ago, serpents became associated with the goddess, and the wavy lines of water/energy were transmogrified to snakes. What happened to bring about this association? By 4000 BC, Goddess figures appeared at Ur and Uruk, both on the southern end of the Euphrates river, not far from the Persian Gulf. At about this same period, the Neolithic Badarian and Amaratian cultures of Egypt first appeared. It is at these sites that agriculture first emerged in Egypt.

From that point on, with the invention of writing, history as we know it, emerged in both Sumer and Egypt - about 3000 BC. (5000 years ago!) In every area of the Near and Middle East, the Goddess was known in historic times. It seems clear that many changes must have taken place in both the forms and modes of worship, but, in various ways, the worship of the Goddess survived into classical Greece and Rome. It was not totally suppressed until the time of the Christian emperors of Rome and Byzantium, who closed the last Goddess Temples about 500 AD.

It appears that the Goddess ruled alone in the beginning, though she was “married” to the king via a human female representative. Thus, the son or brother who was also her lover and consort was part of the goddess religion in much earlier times. This individual was also truly “Semitic” in the sense of being half human and half divine.

Later, as the corruption crept in - seemingly after some dramatic, cataclysmic event - it was this youth - known in various languages as Damuzi, Tammuz, Attis, Adonis, Osiris or Baal - who died in his youth causing an annual period of grief and lamentation among those who paid homage to the Goddess. For a very long time, this myth was annually enacted representing the fact that time was cyclical the same way the seasons were. It was the passing down of the knowledge of cyclical catastrophes connected to cyclical time. The world might end, but if it did, it was only because it had “run down” and needed to be “wound up” again.

But something changed all that. Somehow, the perception of the End of the World became a terrible punishment that might be prevented by savage sacrifices. And the sub-text of this idea was that time was linear and would end, finally and completely. This idea was brought with the invaders from the South, the murderers of the Goddess, the rapers of the Maidens of the Wells: the dominator religion that drove the sword into the stone.
 
I don't think it's a problem for you to quote this excerpt as long as you mention where it came from (and it's a great quote, btw). I am not sure which book review would be perferred. I wrote one, which is in my blogsite. But, there are several that can be found in Amazon sites. And, there is a site for Secret History, if you had not gone to yet:

for what it is worth.
 
Hi Zadius,

the link you posted is great, thanks! We can exchange blog links if you'd like to. Here's the link to the article: http://www.onomatopea.com/dblog/articolo.asp?articolo=13 It's called 'The Magic of Sound'.
 
New post is up here: http://www.onomatopea.com/dblog/articolo.asp?articolo=14

Partially a summary of what I've been reading on Sott lately, partially a comparison between 5 element theory and the state of our planet, plus the usual song lyrics.
