Your Best Friend
The shamanic traditions dealt with the trickster. The Australian aborigines, as well as really all myths, speak of a “time” or phase before anything had a real form. That scary falling place you sometimes get into before you really sleep. That fear you might really go to hell because of your desires, and yet the…

Lie, Cheat, and Steal
Bear with me please. There is a reason I will be saying things this way. The way of the trickster is to lie, cheat, and steal. The trickster is a delusional lunatic who gets everyone’s attention, and makes them all feel uncomfortable. The trickster knows nothing at all, and lies about everything, and has no…

Desire for Sex
We villainize our desires like lust. Let’s say I’m very sexually driven. How does me seeking sexual gratification take anything from anyone? It may make me very attentive to my partner.

Jealous Envy
Why does envy arise? Is it anger? Is it a passion of some kind? Possessiveness? Possessiveness is something that is warped in human nature. Anger that we can’t have it? Insecurity?

Perception of Disconnection
Envy is a pervasive force in the modern mind, and it has always been possible in human reckoning. Many human behaviours stem from envy though the connection is often denied. It is sort of like the animal pecking order, but without the acceptance. When you envy something you always disempower yourself. It’s a perception of…
