Terence McKenna
The Age of Confusion
I haven’t shared anything from Terence McKenna in almost seven years, and yet few thinkers had a stronger influence on…
Terence McKenna
Friedrich W. Stumpfi
Cosmic Fertilization of the Spirit
He calls himself a cosmic illustrator, visual alchemist and psychonaut. All images are from his left hand.
Utopian Visionaries
Dostoevsky & Le Guin
These two visionary tales are written hundred years apart, under very different conditions by very different authors yet they make a great match.
Sharon Ellis
Tumult in Earth, Calm in Heaven
Her vibrant nature scenes convey a sense of the divine in nature and are reminiscent of the Transcendental Painting Group.
Friedrich
Schröder Sonnenstern
Lunatic or Artist
After a tumultuous life, often in conflict with the law, including periods in psychiatric hospitals, the founding of a sect and practicing as a fortune teller and healer, he began to draw at the age of 57.
Pete Mauney
A Slice of Eternity
I think it is fair to say that Pete Mauney is obsessed with photographing fireflies. For more than twenty years he finds solace in his nocturnal wanderings and an inexhaustible challenge for the next interesting composition.
Marjorie Cameron
Songs for the Witch Woman
Cameron was an American artist, poet, actress, and occultist who emerged as a key figure in the California counterculture movement in the 1950s and 60s.
Female Pentimento
The Permeability of Reality
Apocalyptic landscapes imbued with an ominous presence, that reminds me of the frailty of everything we deem safe and irrefutable.
Freddy Mamani
Totems of Andean Futurism
His buildings are nothing less than an exuberant act of self-expression by Bolivia’s long-marginalized indigenous majority.
Sophy Hollington
Carving New Realities
Sophy Hollington is a Brighton-based illustrator who has made a name for herself through her unique take on futuristic folklore realized in linocut.
Peter Birkhäuser
Light from the Darkness
Few artists have so powerfully evoked the uncanny otherness of the unconscious like Swiss artist Peter Birkhäuser.
Julia Turk
Navigators Tarot of the Mystic Sea
I have always been drawn to things I found suggestive but couldn’t understand. The tarot is such a theme that speaks to my imagination but I can’t explain what it really is.
Marcelo Pinel
Cyber Mystic Garden
A laboratory in constant change, a small museum of desires and dreams that amuse the inner child.
Kaljo Põllu
Eternity, Heaven and Earth
Like a deep well evoking forgotten concepts about origins, belonging, and the presence of spiritual forces in the world.
Wolfgang Hutter
Unquenched Desires and the Big Fear
Wolfgang Hutter was clearly gifted with an exceptional receptivity to feel the call of beauty and the creative power to translate it back into form.
Híbridos
The Spirits of Brazil
A poetic and cinematic research into spirituality and its music in Brazil by Priscilla Telmon & Vincent Moon.
Gage Taylor
The Holy Grove
His meticulously rendered landscapes suggest a nostalgia for Eden and the availability of peace and joy through an expanded awareness of the beauty inherent in the land.
David Jien
The Tale of the Inner Struggle
The narrative drawings reflect the eternal human struggle for the right path in life, alongside our demons.
Ithell Colquhoun
Psychomorphologies
After decades of neglect, the British artist and writer Ithell Colquhoun is finally recognized as one of the most exciting and creative occult thinkers of the 20th century.
William Blake
The Book of Job as an Encounter with the Self
A numinous, archetypal event that can lead to enhanced consciousness and is therefore crucial to the psyche of modern man.
Dying to Know
The Mystical World
This book is leading you on travels in a mysterious and visionary world.
Philip Kirkland
Energy Ecstasy and your Seven Vital Chakras
There is already another post about Philip Kirkland but these images I’ve just found deserve to stand alone.
Agnes Pelton
Desert Visionary
Agnes Lawrence Pelton (1881–1961) was a member of the Transcendental Painting Group, dedicated to the principles of creating and promoting a pure abstract painting style imbued with spiritual intent.
Johfra Bosschart
Unio Mystica
Surrealism based on studies of psychology, religion, the Bible, astrology, antiquity, magic, witchcraft, mythology and occultism.
Stanisław Szukalski
Behold! The Fall of Man
Stanisław Szukalski’s strong nationalistic affinity, coupled with a megalomaniac self-image made him the priest of a nation, that was to hail him the greatest of living artists.
Franciszek Starowieyski
The Opulence of Demise
Franciszek Starowieyski liked to think of himself as a draftsman from the 17th century. The lushness of form and erotic exuberance is truly Baroque.
Orgyan Chopel
New Visions in Thangkas
Orgyan Chopel translates cryptic Buddhism into a simplified language of symbols, easier to understand and accept.
The Media-Shaman Manifesto
