Hurricane Sandy: The "MayDay" Rota Fortunae


"MayDay"?!? ... Sandy's calling on the KingKill with a direct MayDay threat to the Green Man.  This hurricane is the Rota Fortunae that I continue to point out always goes along with it. Being a Green Man in the direct path of this thing, I'm holding on. As I write this, my lights are flickering. Getting ready to weather the storm. Be safe all.

Recall also Hurricane Erin 9/11/2001
"Hurricane Erin was "born" on about the 1st of September 2001, and travelled up towards NYC. Hurricane Erin was the closest to NYC on 9/11/01 and was the largest on this date (although wind speeds were greater the day before). At the top of each page, the photo of Erin has an inset, where the plume of material from the destroyed WTC can be clearly seen."

Beltane/MayDay as GreenMan KingKill/Rebirth

Extra reading:
Le Morte d'Arthur: "THEN King Arthur let send for all the children born on May-day, begotten of lords and born of ladies; for Merlin told King Arthur that he that should destroy him should be born on May-day."

Wickerman and Catherine Wheel

One of the less obvious points I like to make about the KingKill theme is how often the event is paired with a "Catherine Wheel." It's often not the easiest thing to explain the correlation, but it is so consitant that I've placed it with equal value to the KingKill itself in my upcoming Suicide Kings book, which is subtitled ATOR ROTA ORAT TORA TARO (The Catherine Wheel Speaks the Law of the Tarot).

Well, the first image I saw after Texas State Fair icon, Big Tex, was consumed by fire today, was this modern-day Wicker Man paired with the fated Rota Fortunae.
Note also the "Dickies" shirt and belt he wears, signaling the groin wound of the Arthurian Fisher King or the missing phallus of Osiris etc.

The wheel of fortune from the Burana Codex; The figures are labelled "Regno, Regnavi, Sum sine regno, Regnabo": I reign, I reigned, My reign is finished, I shall reign

Alan on the Corbett Report and Vinny Eastwood show

This week I was the guest on two radio shows that present similar topics from two wildly different perspectives. James Corbett of the Corbett Report, who broadcasts out of Japan, is a serious man. Vinny Eastwood is a radio host from New Zealand and his approach is to lighten things up with a healthy dash of comedy. Transitioning between the two shows was a little jarring for me, but a healthy embodiment of the balancing act I always talk about. These were also the first two video interviews I have done, which adds an interesting element for the interviewee. Funny thing is that I didn't know Vinny's show was on video so I came a bit under-dressed, but you get to see me in my natural habitat. :)


From Tuesday night:
The world is both physical and metaphysical, not one or the other, you can either move a chair in 2 seconds or study to be a telekinetic monk for 60 years and then move the chair. We must take some responsibility and be aware that meaningful coincidences in life are extremely important to how we interact with other people and the world itself. A revealing and insightful interview on the nature of psychedelics and intellectual evolution.

Or watch the video if you really want to look at my mug for an hour and a half:

Bonus sync: I mention a comic book that I worked on with fellow-NewYorker Rammer Martinez Sanchez, right up to 9/11, when the work took a backseat to the real-life craziness around us. Here's a page Rammer drew in 1999 or 2000 that shows all of NYC and the surrounding area turned into a giant crater:
This sync should have been mentioned in my SyncBook Vol.1 chapter, alongside the other strange 9/11 precursors in my artwork leading up to 9/11, but I had actually forgotten about it. I only found this image a day or two before being contacted by Vinny Eastwood to do his show. The even crazier thing is that the story this image is from tells that only three people in all of New York survived. One of these men was named Vinny Eastman! That character was also a representation of extremes of comedy and tragedy, just like Vinny Eastwood's "lighter side of genocide" approach. . . The syncs are SO specific, that it's just F-ing insanity.

Then, on Wednesday, I was on James Corbett's Corbett Report. This was the first interview in a long time that I was really nervous about. I think that shows in the first few segments, where I'm a little hesitant to assert my position. However, after a silly live call-in I decided to take back that personal power and lay out my information to a place that is not so easy to challenge. In the last twenty minutes I lay out some of the mind-blowing information I have on the Osama bin Laden "killing." I think the shock on James Corbett's face at the end says it all. If a man like him can be flustered by the data, I don't feel so bad about my being so.
Tonight we talk to author and researcher Alan Abbadessa-Green, editor of The Sync Book, about the study of synchronicity in politics and world events. We discuss “the killing of the king” meme as it pertains to the deaths of Lincoln, JFK and Osama Bin Laden.

Sync Book Radio


I've just reworked and updated the layout and archiving for Sync Book Radio. I can't believe how quickly this turned into something so big and so fantastic. These projects, like so many I get involved in, have snowballed beyond my original vision--they're more time consuming to produce than I first assumed but also of such a better quality than I expected either.


There are two show each week: 42 Minutes every Tuesday and Always Record every Thursday.

42 Minutes is hosted by Will Morgan (A Few Shots to Shaman) and Douglas Bolles (Winter's Labyrinth). The show has been going strong for almost exactly one full year. In that time, there have been amazing conversations and great guests:

Then we started Always Record back in May when Bill Klaus (iahuasca) proposed the idea of recording some roundtable conversations. David Plate (MKUltrasound) joined us and the three of us started having a conversation each week. Even as I struggle to find the time to do it, this has turned into a wonderful ritual that I look forward to all week long.


At some point we started having other people join us, each adding their unique take. So far we've had the pleasure of talking to:

Freeman of FreemanTV
Project Psycube (Violator Hellspawn, Frank Zero, and Trevor Tocco)
Douglas Bolles
Jason Barrera (Eleleth)
Justin Morgan
Maya Alexis
Andras Jones
Will Morgan
Tommy Fulks
John Fell Ryan
Mark LeClair (Wrong Way Wizard)




We put a ton of work into this, but it's so worth it. I think you'll enjoy listening as much as we enjoy doing these. Please dig into the archives:
