**** *******Project ALTER MAN 47 is the visionary voyage of an alt-fueled ship on a unique mission to circulate *alt-tech+culture* around the world; Borne of a dream & guided by astonishing Synchronicity to include an ancient Alchemical process within humankind’s emerging potential to truly change. The AM47 crew aim to further generate Synchronicity and help alter earth’s destiny by circumnavigating the globe to exalt *The AM47 Pentaform : A psycho-cosmic pyramid crowning Gaia*.**** *******
FIRE
Treasure Island in the SF Bay was supposed to be the home port of AM47. But now it turns out that the whole fucking island is contaminated by Naval Radiation and deemed uninhabitable. And the Fukushima wave is due to hit SF any day now. There are no words… other than FUCK!
The biggest nuclear spat on the planet is just over the hill from the Point of AIR. It’s a highly seismically active area with radiation leaks right now. Just a matter of time before a reactor cracks or the Religious Right Wing Isramerican Army bomb them. FUCK!
Fukushima radiation poured right up over the North Pole and down into the Atlantic. The Azores reported it’s first radioactive reading just 3 weeks after the meltdown. Cetaceans LOVE the Azores… it’s like their favorite place on earth… now toxic. FUCK!
Earth’s magnetic shield is thinnest at the poles. The red regions show where the cosmic radiation and particles that erupt from the Sun’s surface enter the Earth’s upper atmosphere. The radiation at the North Pole can be hazardous, esp. during a solar storm or flare. And of course Fukushima water is passing through… FUCK!
Prometheus, Lucifer, Loki – the FIRE-bringer stealing Fire and descending into the zodiacal ring to light the darkness of the world… and Burn it too.
(14 OCT 2013) The FIRE-bringer didn’t just bring it to cast light into the darkness, he also brought it to Burn. From the end, we all had our parts to play… Evil motivated Good, and in that powerful movement was life. The windows of opportunity to truly change the world are razor-framed. They open and close to a greater accord and are glimpsed by the gifted and the damned.razor-framed
The global Alchemy of AM47.
It’s only 3 days until the AM47 Point of Alchemical AETHYR on 17 OCT 2013, which also happens to be the deadline for the USA to avoid defaulting on it’s debts, which would probably trigger a global economic catastrophe. 17 OCT 2013 is the latest possible date this year that we could have launched the AM47 ship on it’s Alchemical Voyage around the world from San Francisco. 17 OCT 2013 will mark the 7th failed attempt to launch AM47 in as many years, due to a failure of elucidation of the project, grassroots sharing and hence funding. I don’t know that anyone who has ever lived can really understand what it feels like to truly have the world slip through your fingers… I almost had it all, but now.?.
It Was Always Too Late.
Is it even worth spending the energy on an 8th attempt to launch AM47 on 17 OCT 2014? First off, the world probably isn’t ready and doesn’t even seem interested, so fuck ’em. And then, the Point of WATER at the Japan Trench is irradiated and ruined by Fukushima. The Point of AIR in Northern Persia is the focus of western aggression and likely flashpoint of WW3 and the Suez Canal we must sail through is highly unstable. The Point of EARTH in the Azores remains an easily accessible destination of wonderment, but the once and future capitol of counterculture & Point of FIRE in San Francisco is infested with Banal Techie Doucholes entirely ignorant of anything mystically progressive anymore.
The polar bears say screw you and I guess I do too.
Yet the Arctic Ice continues to rapidly melt at the North Pole/Point of AETHYR which will actually make it possible to sail the AM47 ship to the True North Pole as originally planned 7 years ago!; something that would have been impossible without global warming… which is a bad thing, right?. Project AM47 is definitely conflicted, just like the rest of the world, and it’s characteristic of the Age of Sidereal Pisces that we’ll continue to inhabit for the next @ 363 years at the dawning of the true Age of Sidereal Aquarius.
Yep. Another good 300+ years to go…. yeesh.
The latest prediction by top climate scientists has determined that 2047 is the Point of No Return for life on earth, the new end of the world as we know and want it. That gives us 33 years to drastically ALTER everything about how this entire planet operates before extinction becomes inevitable (not to mention the 500+ nuclear catastrophes waiting to happen at any minute). I love the cool weather of fall and winter, and the stormy skies. The humans of this planet are deliberately shitting on what I love, right now. This is 100% intolerable.
I’ve offered Project ALTERMAN47 to this world and it’s been ignored. And now it’s probably too late. I’ve been doing the “math” and it is achingly clear that the utopian society of the Age of Sidereal Aquarius in @ 350 years time can NOT possibly arise from a human population of 8+billion. There is simply too much discord in a population that large in this deluded age. That means a mass extinction of humans between now and then is inevitable. Whether or not this will come about deliberately or as a matter of natural course remains to be seen. But make no mistake, there WILL be a purge on this human race, one way or another. And that’s probably No Bad Thing, depending on who survives of course.
Screen shot from the forthcoming ALTERMAN47 2.0 interactive website.
From what I’ve seen, this human race is simply unwilling to make the necessary Alterations toward a utopian society. Humans (primates) main defense is their offensive odor and awful flavor. They’re so polluted that they don’t even make decent fertilizer! This planet must be under invasion because they have certainly stunk the place up so that no one else would touch it with a 10 ft. pole. I’m by NO means a religious man, but this portion of Revelations does illustrate the mystery of “47” quite beautifully, which of course is a recurring theme throughout project AM47. Not only is it wonderful because of 47, but also because of the supernatural/Alchemical imagery that so potently transcends the human form and materialism:
The 4 Living Creatures. The 4 Royal Signs. The 4 Alchemical Elements.
“4:5 From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings and peals of thunder. Before the throne, seven lamps were blazing. These are the seven spirits of God. 4:6 Also before the throne there was what looked like a sea of glass, clear as crystal. In the center, around the throne, were four living creatures, and they were covered with eyes, in front and in back. 4:7 The first living creature was like a lion, the second was like an ox, the third had a face like a man, the fourth was like a flying eagle. 4:8 Each of the four living creatures had six wings and was covered with eyes all around, even under his wings. Day and night they never stop saying: “HOLY, HOLY, HOLY IS THE Lord GOD ALMIGHTY, WHO WAS, AND IS, AND IS TO COME.””

I’ve been producing a modern day interpretation of The Alchemical Great Work (loosely, the idealization of matter into spirit & the great unifying mystical tradition) for the past 7 years with astonishing results. You can find out all about this great voyage and film here at Project ALTER MAN 47.
As you can see from this North Pole perspective, the 4 Alchemical Points of AM47 are perfectly aligned around the crown of Gaia.
In short, there are 4 cornerstones of an ancient sacred alchemical geometry perfectly spaced around the world at the exact same latitude in:
1. San Francisco (too many FIRE associations to list here; 1906 Great Fire, birthplace of Burning Man, and now the Rim Fire) is FIRE
2. The Japan Trench (Fukushima & the largest volcano in the entire solar system) is WATER
3. Turkmenistan (Gonur Depe – the birthplace of Zoroastrianism – heart of ALL monotheism, and center of the middle east) is AIR
4. The Azores (highest mountain tops in the Atlantic Ocean, and home to a newly discovered ancient occupation with tombs and pyramids) is EARTH
5. And The North Pole, the capstone on this ‘Psycho-Cosmic Pyramid Crowning Gaia’ is AETHYR
Note that the Fire is on the exact latitude of San Francisco (the AM47 Point of FIRE) and on the exact date that the Sun entered the ancient Babylo-Egyptian sidereal sign of Leo (FIRE).
And so the Great Yosemite Rim Fire (3rd biggest Fire in California history) ignited on 17 AUG 2013. As I and ancient history have revealed, the sign of Leo (FIRE) is currently from 17 AUG – 16 SEP, and this shifts slowly over a 26,000 year cycle of precession. The Rim Fire ignited on 17 AUG 2013, the exact time that the Sun went into sidereal Leo, on the exact latitude of the Point of FIRE: San Francisco… yet another blatant portent signifying the relevance & dire nature of Project ALTER MAN 47 that humankind continues to DENY. Gaia and I have no patience left, and if you look into your deepest heart, neither do you.
Here’s a little Spooky something from last years Point of FIRE… enjoy!!

The YRFire began on the same day that the Sun entered sidereal (ancient Babylo-Egyptian) Leo, 17 AUG 2013. The YRFire is directly on the latitude of Project AM47.
The AM47 Alchemical Point of Elemental FIRE is in San Francisco on 01 SEP 2013, dead center of sidereal Leo (which is also the same day they burn the Man at Burning Man).
San Francisco is under a state of emergency due to the fire threatening power and water to the city.
Another tragic portent in a dying world, too damn stupid to know a good thing when they see it.
Shot of the Great Yosemite Fire of 2013 on August 24th from the Space Station showing the enormous smoke plume and the fire creating it’s own weather system.
The Sun entered Sidereal (ancient Babylo-Egyptian) Leo (FIRE) on 17 August 2013. The Great Yosemite Fire was sparked by lightning on 17 August 2013. On 23 August 2013, Gov. Brown issued a State of Emergency for San Francisco due to possible damage to electric and water infrastructure. The ALTER MAN 47 Alchemical Point of Elemental FIRE is on 01 September 2013, at the “Angel Point” / mid-Sidereal Leo, in 7 days. As of today, 24 August 2013, the Fire is already the second biggest CA Fire in history and still only 5% contained. If this Fire takes out the power and water to San Francisco, we may well see a Point of Fire like no other before it.
Note how the Fire is directly in line with San Francisco, on the latitude of Project AM47.

(08 June 2013) Today was the New Moon in Sidereal Taurus and the first organizational meeting of the San FranciscoHoly Grail Society: a social club organized around the exploration and practice of occult mysteries including Rosicrucian, Wicca, hermetic sciences, Qabalah, Tantra, Gnosticism, & Shamanism.
We explored the notion of how Sacrifice for the future is necessary right Now. Sacrifice in it’s extreme form is physical death. We would rather see sacrifice as Change. Unless this change is identified and rapidly embraced, the necessity of physical death as fertilization is inevitable and welcome.
We must sacrifice our old self. We must break down our old selves and assemble someone new. We have the wrong diet, the wrong currency, the wrong governance, the wrong calendar, the wrong zodiac, the wrong energy, the wrong beliefs. Virtually Everything in so-called modern civilization is completely backwards leading us to have a wrong identity that must be sacrificed. We need a radical departure from the habitual waste of everyday existence. But just changing ourselves isn’t enough. We must quickly find new ways to gradually layer this process of sacrifice to make it appeal to others as well.
The past strangles the future. Society must adopt a vegetarian diet, a Bitcoin/Silver/barter based economy, 3rd party governance, a lunar calendar, the sidereal zodiac, a culture based around what alternative energy can provide instead of a runaway culture fueled by petrol, and direct spiritual experience instead of traditional belief. If 23% of the passionate population took to the streets and demanded these Alterations, we’d be living in an Alternate reality by 2014.
Folks need fresh, living myths in order to become more willing to change. They need evidenced stories of the power to manifest dreams and demonstrations of the work it takes to do it. They need stories of proof of non-localized consciousness and the value of seeking out such things. They need Destiny Journalism, Metafiction, & Speculative Fantasy. And they need ritual, ceremony, counseling, education, and initiation rites to inspire personal & cultural revelation.
There is evidence in literature and archeology of a Golden Age in earth’s past. After The Flood, coastal civilization would have been all but wiped out (which makes us largely the descendents of hill-billys). What were they doing differently in the Golden Age that we no longer do? One thing we know is that much of the remaining architecture is focused around the live observation of the heavens. Very few people take this seriously today and through all the smog and light pollution, there’s little desire to do so.
12,000 years ago atGobekli Tepe, Turkey, civilization was founded on an agreement of the stars in the heavens, and the future of civilization is no exception. Sacrifice is needed Now if humankind is ever to see The Age of Sidereal Aquarius, still some 363 years in the future.
The SF Bay Areais the once and future capitol of counterculture. Here are just a few of the currently active occult organizations in and aroundSan Francisco that wemight like to explore bridgingto build continuity and the alignment of disparate intent:
The Temple Of Set is an institution designed to encourage the cultivation of self-Awareness in life transcending death. “The Temple of Set seeks above all to honor and enshrine consciousness. We wish to apprehend what makes us each individually unique and use this gift to make ourselves stronger in all facets of our being. To do this we preserve and improve the tradition of spiritual distinction from the cultural universe.”
The Holy Grail Society is a social club “organized around the exploration and practice of occult mysteries – Rosicrucian, Wicca, hermetic sciences, Qabalah, Tantra, Gnosticism, Shamanism. The Holy Grail Society is devoted to liberating the individual from the bondage of external morality, cleansing the doors of perception, revealing the true will of the divine Self.”
The San Francisco Astrological Society “serves as an educational, professional and social networking resource to the Bay Area (Tropical) Astrological community, providing an *affordable* monthly forum for people interested in astrology to gather and explore this *ancient language*.” Though the SFAS are still Tropical and not yet Sidereal astrologers, they do have a large participatory base primed for Alteration.
The Burning Man Project “is establishing an Urban Cultural Center in San Francisco that will provide collaborative gathering and gallery spaces, classrooms, workshops, a library, archives, sites for ritual and ceremony and shared office space for multiple community-based non-profit organizations.”
The Mission Astrology Group was founded in San Francisco and is the longest running gathering of Western Sidereal Astrologers in the world, currently active in various occult groups in SF.
Project ALTER MAN 47 is essentially a Synchronicity Generator and an experimental quest to help reset and raise Global Awareness. One tangible goal of AM47 is to provide an extreme example of creating culture around what sustainable, alternative energy can support as opposed to mindlessly fueling a runaway culture of excess.
All these and more to be added soon, so stay tuned!

(14 June 2013) Just 6 days after I posted this, a brilliant interview aired on one of my favorite news shows (no, Not the Daily Show) with Dr. Rushkoff about Time and so much else. There are many fascinating parallels between my article “Bridging the Occult Societies of San Francisco” and this one on Thom Hartmann’s excellent show: The Big Picture. The interview: “Conversations with Great Minds: Dr. Rushkoff – When Everything Happens Now” is included here in 2 parts. Take a look at it and tell me what You think!!
I worked with the Speakers at the O’Reilly Fluent Javascript conference the other day in SF and a group of the speakers began talking about their love of ships and meeting up later at the SF Maritime Museum. The conversation quickly turned into how they’re all just really moonlighting coders but sci-fi writers at heart. So I jumped on the opportunity to chime-in and share my Alchemical Project AM47 and hand out my card. AM47 is of course all @ ‘sci-fi’ (or more appropriately, Speculative Fantasy / Metafiction) and, well… Ships! I’ve probably flat-blasted the poor bastards. Ah well.
Max sportin’ the Google Glass that he let me wear.
As a caveat, @ 47 minutes later, a speaker wearing prototype Augmented Reality glasses from Google asks me if I want to try them on. As soon as I put them on and swipe my finger at the temple control, the time [ 4:47 ] pops-up!! This type of Synchronicity is common for me, and increasing all the time, but it’s nice to have actual witnesses, not to mention potential new contacts. It’s a sad state of affairs when you can’t simply come out and say things like “Sidereal Astrology“, “Alchemy”, “Synchronicity”, “Vision Dreaming”, and the like without being ridiculed or disregarded out-of-hand. But I’m learning to take every chance that comes, damn the consequences… By Any Means Necessary!

(a 47 second fantastical creep-clip by Jack Foolman)
A little lightning, a little rain, a
brilliant double rainbow into a
Magic Circle, and a giant fiery
Angel of Death from above.
I performed an improvised Alchemical FIRE Rite on 01 Sep 2012, in mid-Sidereal Leo, at & during the AM47 Point of Elemental FIRE, and 4 days later an uncommon summer storm hit San Francisco. I was coming home in the SoMa at the tail end of the storm and I looked up and saw a brilliant double rainbow and some very imposing cloud formations. As I’d done a little *magic* just 4 days before, I was casually expecting *something*, so I ran up to my roof to get a better view.
I was stunned by the brilliant double rainbow to the east. From my perspective, as soon as I opened the roof door, the rainbows poured directly into the Magic Circle I’d made just a few nights before! The other end of the rainbows appeared to be ’emanating’ from a billboard about Gambling of all things… Gold at the end of the rainbow!! But that was nothing compared to what I saw when a strange feeling caused me to turn around to the west behind me.
In the cloud formations to the west was a full-blown Giant Fiery Angel Of Death: literally the formation of a giant & malevolent red skull complete with arcing cirrus wings, clear shoulder, arm and suggestions of a ribcage manifested from the clouds. It was one of those ‘Oh Shit’ moments where you think ‘is that thing that I’m imagining actually looking back at me?’
I was spooked, and I do not spook easily. The pictures I got with my phone Do NOT do either the rainbows or the Angel of Death justice. The sun was going down fast and the light was rapidly changing for my phone camera to capture the shots. But I can tell you from my heart that I was frightened… the Giant Skull looked like it was about to swoop down and bite me in half. True Story… Still Spooked.
Alchemy on the roof, 4 days before.

Jack F. is a hippie samurai Zoroastrian swimming to Atlantis.
His story really began in 2006 when he had a Vision Dream involving a voyage around the globe by sea. Since then, most of his free creative time (aka. Real Life) goes into producing the story of this dream and cultivating the astonishing Synchronicity bourne of it.
