The Grand Man of Zohar, mastering the cosmic correspondence of As Above, So Below.
Most people still think of Alchemy as some medieval fool trying to get rich quick. When I describe Project ALTER MAN 47 to people, no matter how much documented Synchronicity, deliberate planning, or fantastic potential I’ve shared, as soon as I say Alchemy their eyes glaze over and start looking for the exit.
Alchemy is “The Royal Art”: the Art of altering reality or more precisely, restoring reality to a pristine state. In spiritual terms, Alchemy is a symbolic description of the transformation from the dark leaden physicality (locality) of earthbound consciousness toward the refined gold of the spiritually illuminated (all-pervasive) being; it maps the inner dynamics that will result in the purification of body, mind, and soul.
Alchemy is often perceived as a purely symbolic language for spiritual realities. The ratio of “material” to “spiritual” is a major difference of opinion between interpreters of the subject. But with AM47, we are taking the symbology a step further by anchoring the concepts of Alchemy into an actual Transformative Voyage around the world (The Alchemical Great Work): the Alchemical mixing “vessel” is the altered ex-military ship and the Classical Platonic Elements have manifested as literal destinations on planet earth, rooted in time and space and all set to a greater cosmic schedule (Sidereal Astrology).
So the next time I say ALCHEMY you can lax that grip on your coinpurse and try paying attention instead. Wild Wishing!!

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*.
The Alchemical Great Work has remained an elusive spiritual mystery. It is the core of an evolutionary metaphysical experiment developing right now. Central to the Great Work are the 4 Classical Elements and the 7 Inner Planets. Four locations in perfect formation around the globe are naturally and profoundly manifesting characteristics of each of the 4 Elements. (This Elemental pattern is found no where else on the planet and is in the correct ordering of Alchemical transformation.) A voyage is being organized to circumnavigate the globe and link these locations in order to generate, observe, dedicate and send these magical forces into Awareness by completing *The AM47 Pentaform: A psycho-cosmic pyramid crowning Gaia*. The cycle of project AM47 annually begins again on 02 Sep 2013 (& 01 Sep 2014, etc.).

Starring Godzilla as a dick-head tool of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission Establishment.
Although the new Godzilla film is entertaining enough, it’s underlying message is Completely Backwards. (Screw SPOILERS AHEAD… This Trumps Spoilage!)
Godzilla is “awakened” after two M.U.T.O.’s (“Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organism”, lovingly played by MUTO Mamma & MUTO Pappa) decide it’s high time to Get-It-On. Pappa MUTO finally hits puberty and sends out a booty-call a quarter-turn ’round the world, and Mamma MUTO gets the message… But not on old-man Godzilla’s watch!!
The ImMUTOble Facts:
MUTOs Breaking Out of US Military Imprisonment! (Hell Yes.)
MUTOs Eating Radiation! Literally ridding our planet of deadly nukes & radiation and corporate death. (Whereas Godzilla probably eats whales, the turd.)
But NOOOO. Godzilla has to put his big fatass foot down on all that Anti-Establishment BS. Hey old-man Godzilla, why don’t you make yourself useful and go do a happy dance on WALL STREET! In the meantime, I’ll be watching PACIFIC RIM instead.
MUTO LOVE BABY

Four locations in perfect cross-quarter formation around the world are naturally manifesting the characteristics of the 4 Classical Elements of ALCHEMY. The mission of Project ALTER MAN 47 (AM47) is to film the journey of an alt-fuel ship that will circumnavigate the globe to connect all four of these points, one every three months, over the course of a year (the timing of the voyage is strictly set to the ancient Egyptian/sidereal astrological year). In so doing this will further generate Synchronicity and help raise the spiritual Awareness of humankind. Departing from the Point of FIRE in San Francisco, to the Point of WATER off the coast of Japan, to the Point of AIR in Turkmenistan/Iran, to the Point of EARTH in the Azores, and back to the Point of FIRE in San Francisco to complete the circle.
When the Sun aligns with the direct center or “Angel Point” of sidereal Aquarius, the Point of Elemental AIR (PoEA) can be expected to manifest in the vast, barren Kara Kum desert of Turkmenistan (just north of Iran). The next PoEA is on 29 Feb 2012 (and 28 Feb 2013, etc.). The AM47 ship was scheduled to have sailed from the Point of WATER off the coast of Japan and have docked at the Iranian port-city of Bandar-Abbas in the Straight of Hormuz by mid-Feb 2012. The crew of AM47 was then to travel north, overland through central Iran to Turkmenistan and into the Kara Kum desert to arrive at the PoEA at 37.47 N, 64.03 E on 29 Feb 2012 (and 28 Feb 2013, etc.). This point lies just east of the ancient city of Mary and the very ancient site of Gonur Tepe. Gonur Tepe is the recently discovered 5th center of world civilization of the ancient world (side by side with Mesopotamia, Egypt, India and China) that was the birthplace of Zoroastrianism (and hence Mithrasism and all monotheism), a religion based on the opposition of good and evil. There, the overland crew of AM47 was to generate, observe, dedicate and send Elemental AIR into Awareness.
The AM47 ship was then to continue its circumnavigation of the globe to the Point of EARTH in the Azores and then return to the Point of FIRE in San Francisco. After a successfully documented and magically transformative journey around the world, the ship was to again set sail north in late-Sep 2012 for Alert, Nunavut, the northernmost inhabited city on the planet near the North Pole, for the Point of Elemental AETHER and the Gateway of Arcturus on 17 Oct 2012 (and 16 Oct 2013, etc.), thus completing The Pentaform: A Psycho-Cosmic Pyramid Crowning Gaia. Although funding for the journey was not secured for this years attempt, the cycle begins anew each year and Project AM47 will try again for a scheduled departure on 01 Sep 2012 (and 31 Aug 2013, etc.) from San Francisco’s FIRE to the WATER of the Japan Trench.

AIRy Facts about Turkmenistan/Iran. Here is a chronological history of all the potent information, news and events from this location, most of which have obviously uncanny Elemental AIR connotations:
1. 4,000 years ago, the “lost civilization” of the Margiana built a great city at Gonur Tepe (just slightly west of the Point of Air in Turkmenistan) which sat at the hub of the crossroads of many cultures. There they invented Zoroastrianism (the first recorded monotheism/dualism which also venerated the 4 Classical Elements and Alchemy) and presided over this vast network of cultures during what was called “the happiest time in the history of the world”.
The Yaz culture is an early Iron Age culture (ca. 1500-1100 BC). No burials related to the culture have been found, and this was taken as evidence of the Zoroastrian practice of excarnation or so-called sky burial.
2. (Ancient) There is a temple in present day Ashkabad in Turkmenistan with the inscription “mehriyan” or “place of Mithra”. The Mithraic Leontocephaline figure has remained enigmatic. But if you consider it’s origins being in the 4 Elements and the 4 Persian “Royal Signs” of the zodiac, it is clear that this lion-headed figure can gracefully represent these: Leo, FIRE (lion head), Scorpio, WATER (serpent coiled – Scorpio was also symbolized as a serpent in Egyptian, Babylonian and Persian myths), Aquarius, AIR (angel body), all standing atop Taurus, EARTH (as a stylized bull’s head/globe/earth). The Leontocephalous/Mithraic symbology is an ancient embodiment of the 4 Elements precessing through the equinoxes and hence, of sidereal astrology and Alchemy itself! Did the Leontocephaline symbology originate in the land that is now modern day Turkmenistan? The figure is of course standing or hovering in the AIR over the EARTH globe.
The Mithraic/Zoroastrian figure of the Leontocephaline: the gatekeeper of the zodiac.
3. (Ancient) The border between Iran and Turkmenistan was determined by “a supernatural arrow shot through the air” as documented in Persian antiquity. Did this “arrow” land on the AM47 Point of AIR? “When Manouchehr and Afrasiyab determined to make peace and to fix the boundary between Iran and Turan (Turkmenistan), ‘it was stipulated that Arash (Erekhsha) should ascend Mount Damâvand, and from thence discharge an arrow towards the east; and that the place in which the arrow fell should form the boundary between the two kingdoms. Arash (Erekhsha) thereupon ascended the mountain, and discharged towards the east an arrow, the flight of which continued from the dawn of day until noon, when it fell on the banks of the Jeyhun (the Oxus).'”
The archer Erekhsha, firing the arrow into the air to determine the border between Iran and Turkmenistan.
4. (Ancient) Historically, the favored funerary practice of the peoples of this vast Central Asian region was excarnation (open Air disposal) on “Towers of Silence” (just like Hanging Man!).
A modern-day Tower of Silence in India.
5. (1800’s) The society of modern day Turkmenistan is considered one of the most repressive on earth. That stands in diametrical opposition to the very essence of the AIR Element, it can be considered as ‘the shadow of Air’. Elemental AIR represents the intellect, communication, planning, organizing, writing, languages and teaching, as well as commerce and travel. Ancient Turkmenistan was a major trade hub on the old Silk Road linking the East to the West.
Totalitarian repression in Turkmenistan, making AM47’s journey here problematic to say the least.
6. (2008) Gobekli Tepe, the very recently discovered 12,000 year old catalyst point of civilization is just west of the Point of AIR, and at the exact same latitude!!!!! As far as we now know, human civilization was based on the observation and agreement of the stars above and what the movement of space-time really meant to the human experience.
Gobekli Tepe, the 12,000 year old earliest known archaeological origin of human civilization based on the stars above.
7. (2008) A team of international surveyors determined Turkmenistan to have the second or possibly first highest natural gas reserves in the world! (AIR, the gaseous state of matter!) .
The Darvasa Gas Crater in Turkmenistan spewing natural airy gas and burning since 1965!, just slightly west of The Point of Elemental AIR.
8. (2008) Turkmenistan is now beginning to enter the news due to its vast energy reserves and because of it’s strategic value as it borders both Iran and Afghanistan. Also because of Turkmenistan’s stance of political neutrality, which is a very AIRy aspect indeed.
Strategic geographic location.
9. (2008) Both the Aral Sea to the north and the Caspian Sea to the west of the Point of AIR are drying-up… point of fact.
The drying Aral Sea
10. (2008) Wind Man, a film about an AIR Elemental and Madar, the Angel of Death from ancient Persian myth, played for the first time here in San Francisco. Wind Man was filmed in 2007 right near the Point of Elemental AIR in Turkmenistan!
Wind Man film soundtrack poster.
11. (10 Mar 2010) An unprecedented super-novae event (a nova-level flash event where none was expected) was detected in Cygni V 407, which shares the celestial longitude of the center of sidereal Aquarius. The Sun had aligned with the center of sidereal Aquarius and the Point of Elemental AIR just 10 days earlier on 28 Feb 2010. Though this super-novae event was detected on 10 Mar 2010, it is easy to surmise that the actual event (perceptible to earth) occurred closer to 28 Feb 2010, which was the direct center or “Angel Point” of sidereal Aquarius!
The Cygni V 407 unprecedented super-novae event occuring within the orb of the Point of AIR AND sharing the celestial longitude of the center of Sidereal Aquarius!!!
12. (Late 2010) The film Black Sands was released – a new documentary about Gonur Depe, Turkmenistan and the deep roots of monotheism. “There is a previously unknown Bronze-Age civilization deep in the cobra-infested Kara Kum (Black Sands) Desert in Turkmenistan. Battling sand-storms and intense isolation, archaeologist Viktor Sarianidi uncovers a city where the dead were disposed through ritual excarnation and astrologer-priests consumed hallucinogenic ritual drinks over 4,000 years ago. Is it the motherland of Zoroastrianism (or Mithrasism) ~ an ancient Indo-Iranian religion that was later to strongly influence Judaism and hence Christianity and Islam.?.” Gonur Depe is just west the Point of Elemental AIR!
13. (13 Jan 2011) The TAPI natural gas pipeline (short for Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India) has finally been ratified and is expected to bring energy security to the entire region. Turkmenistan is said to have the world’s third or fourth largest gas reserves (although “this could be much higher”), and is of course the Point of Elemental AIR of Project AM47. Plans to pipe natural gas from the region are also in the works for Iran, China, Russia and the EU and the US. This could truly be be one of the harbingers of peace and energy security that we have been waiting for!
The leaders of Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India make peace.
16. (14 Jul 2011) Faith met a crossroads in ancient Rome. Christinanity beat-out Mithrasism by an inch, leaving us with the C-grade reality we share today. Christinanity was simple, while Mithrasism required a process. The Mithraic Leontocephaline figure has remained enigmatic. But if you consider it’s origins in the 4 Elements and the 4 Persian “Royal Signs” of the zodiac, it is clear that this lion-headed figure can gracefully represent these: Leo, FIRE (lion head), Scorpio, WATER (serpent coiled – Scorpio was also symbolized as a serpent in Egyptian, Babylonian and Persian myths), Aquarius, AIR (angel body), all standing atop Taurus, EARTH (as a stylized bull’s head/globe/earth). The Leontocephalous is an ancient embodiment of the 4 Elements precessing through the equinoxes and hence, of sidereal astrology itself. Christinanity empowers from without, thereby weakening the spirit of man: The Christinane symbol of the crucifixion is mundane death. Mithrasism encourages from within, thereby strengthening the spirit of man: The Mithraic symbol of the Leontocephaline is magical life.
The Mithraic symbol of the Leontocephaline is magical life.
The Christinane symbol of the crucifixion is mundane death.
17. (14 Feb 2012) Today, the Sun entered sidereal Aquarius (AIR: intellect, innovative communications). In a letter, Iran says it’s ready for nuclear talks. For the love of godz and all existence, let’s not fuck this up mankind, okay.?. The AM47 Point of Elemental AIR is approaching on 29 Feb 2012. What’s going to happen? Something Wonderful… or else.
18. (21 Feb 2012) Today in Afghanistan, deadly violence broke out after U.S. military servicemen disposed of several copies of the Quran by burning them. Afghanistan is just south-east of Turkmenistan. A top Iranian military commander responded by saying “The Muslim world should not accept an apology issued by U.S. President Barack Obama over the burning of Korans in an American base in Afghanistan, and that nothing short of burning the White House can relieve the wound of us.” Speechless. This idiocy by the USA is fucking catastrophic. Unbelievably stupid behavior… I Support Troops Who Break Ranks!!!
19. (22 Feb 2012) The U.N. nuclear watchdog’s IAEA ended its latest mission to Iran after talks on Tehran’s suspected secret atomic weapons research failed, a setback likely to increase the risk of confrontation with the West, not to mention making it nearly impossible for AM47 to complete it’s future mission of global Awareness.
21. (26 Feb 2012) Today in San Francisco I had the good fortune of meeting with Bora Ozkok, an expert on the mythology, shamanism, religion, folklore, culture, language and travel of the region around the AM47 Point of Elemental AIR in Turkmenistan (just north of Iran) and Turkey (Gobekli Tepe). It’s funny that what was shaping up to be the most difficult point of the AM47 journey is now the one that I have the most help with. AM47 was scheduled to be in Turkmenistan on 29 Feb 2012, but sadly the required publicity and subsequent funding for the project was not secured for this years attempt. Yet that this most fortuitous meeting should conspire to occur on 26 Feb 2012, just three days before the target date, is of course further evidence of the Synchronicity and pure Magic at work in the project. AM47 is now another step closer to the reality of a 01 Sep 2012 (or 01 Sep 2013, etc.) launch date. Wild Wishing…
The bullseye’s on the Point of AIR.
22. (28 Feb 2012) Today is the center of the ancient Egyptian/sidereal astrological sign of Aquarius and the AM47 Point of Elemental AIR. Yesterday, an “Era of Happiness” was declared by the president of Turkmenistan’s totalitarian regime!! His slogan “The happy epoch of the mighty state” is a “call for our future achievements and great deeds”. “In Turkmenistan a new era has begun/ All the Earth is lit up by the light dawn/ The glory has enveloped the heart with an aura of greatness/ And in the mighty state a happy time has begun!”
Meanwhile, the Turkmen Prez. enjoys some groovy 3-D.
23. (28 Feb 2012) AIR In Effect: A new round of nuclear negotiations with Iran is likely to be agreed in the next few days… Iran has not yet decided to produce a nuclear weapon, in part, because there are deep-seated disagreements among its leaders about whether it is the right thing to do… Iranians prepare for the most important holiday of the Persian calendar, Nowruz, an ancient Zoroastrian festival of Spring… Can’t the Iranian Zoroastrians mobilize and take back Iran from the Muslims and lead the world in nuclear disarmament?? C’mon now, let’s see some MAGIC!!
An Iranian Zoroastrian FIRE ceremony.
***THE FOLLOWING ENTRIES ARE UNDER IMPROVEMENT & EXPANSION***
25. (09 NOV 2013) Drinking Soma, the potion of immortality at the AM47 Point of AIR! “In the Vedas, the drink, and the plant refer to the same entity. Drinking Soma produces immortality (Amrita, Rigveda 8.48.3). Indra and Agni are portrayed as consuming Soma in copious quantities.” Cheers!
26. (11 DEC 2013) Flying cockroaches originating from Turkmenistan are invading America and ousting the native species by flying, breeding more and faster, heat and cold tolerant!
27. (20 DEC 2013) The new Wikileaks film “Mediastan” offers a rare glimpse into Central Asia – The AM47 Point of Alchemical AIR In “Mediastan,” produced by Julian Assange, Rebecca O’Brien and Lauren Dark, a group of underground journalists test the impact of the leaked documents as they travel through Central Asia in search of local media outlets willing to publish Cablegate files. Their journey follows the ancient Silk Road traversing Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and US-occupied Afghanistan.
36. (14 MAR 2014) Today is the last day of Sidereal Aquarius 2014, and there is more to add here over the past 2 weeks but I need a break now. See you then…

This is the route through Iran to the AM47 Alchemical Point of Elemental AIR in Gonur Tepe, Turkmenistan! Note how the route is almost perfectly in-line with the longitude of the AM47 Point of AIR!! Wow.
AM47 is about beginning to restore the Alchemical Magical Balance of humankind by, for one, re-equating the AIR Element that was exalted by the Zoroastrians and then torn-asunder by the monotheists.
And to all the mundane humans who still refuse to acknowledge AM47, Do enjoy your waking sleep… I’m sure titties and steaks and bands and gossip and egos are much more important than this, Right.?.

The 4 Elemental Corners of the AM47 Alchemical Planet Earth
Take a close look at the 4 Elemental Points of Project ALTER MAN 47: They are ALL located Directly on major seismic zones. And they have ALL had Catastrophic earthquakes with the potential for many more:
The more I share AM47, and the more brick walls I hit, and the more I see the 1% hoarding resources, and the more I see the 99% let them do it, and the more time marches on… the greater the temptation, nay, INCLINATION to use the power of AM47 punitively. I’d set out to use this magic to help alter mankind into a world I could stand living in, and to JUMP this current destructive phase of the tail-end of the Age of Sidereal Pisces. But this human race is just so Wrong, and if this is a test, I’m fairly certain I’m failing it. Maybe it’s true: All must be destroyed before created anew.

The Elders, formed in 2007 (same year as AM47!), is made up of 12 global leaders who try to promote peace.
(27 JAN 2014) Just 4 months ago we were on the verge of war with Iran, aka WW3. Now, after 30 years of frozen relations, the fragile chance for Iran to actually become an ally is finally here. That’s a pretty incredible turnaround and fantastic news for AM47! A crew of 12 global leaders known as The Elders are on their way to Iran!!
AM47 Point of AIR 2014 in Turkmenistan/Iran
Expect a major positive development in humanitarian communications on the Iran Thaw just 1 moon from now, during mid-Sidereal Aquarius/The ALTER MAN 47 Point of Elemental AIR, when 6 out of 10 Planets will be in Sidereal AIR signs, and 3 out of those 6 will be in Sidereal Aquarius! This is a great window of opportunity for unity!!
The ALTER MAN 47 Alchemical Voyage is impossible without peace with Iran as the AM47 ship must dock on the southeast coast of Iran and then the crew must travel north, directly through Iran and into Turkmenistan.

Our solar system is hurtling through space like a cosmic sperm-comet… So where in the hell is the damn egg? The EGG is the future!! And AM47 has always served to help create it.

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*.
[ AM47 was conceived in early 2007 and has been evolving ever since. There’s a lot to take in here and much of it needs editorial polish. I’d recommend scroll-scanning through some pages after this one (esp. the 5 destination pages) to get a better sense of the content and the scope. There is metaphysical content ahead. Please don’t dismiss this out of hand. The core project is perfectly tangible and relevant to this real world. The occult angle is for those who recognize it: No *Belief* Required. This is a true story. ]

The Alchemical Great Work has remained an elusive spiritual mystery. It is the core of an evolutionary metaphysical experiment developing right now. Central to the Great Work are the 4 Classical Elements and the 7 Inner Planets. Four locations in perfect formation around the globe are naturally and profoundly manifesting characteristics of each of the 4 Elements. (This Elemental pattern is found no where else on the planet and is in the correct ordering of Alchemical transformation.) A voyage is being organized to circumnavigate the globe and link these locations in order to generate, observe, dedicate and send these magical forces into Awareness by completing *The AM47 Pentaform: A psycho-cosmic pyramid crowning Gaia*. The cycle of project AM47 annually begins again on 02 Sep 2013 (& 01 Sep 2014, etc.).

This world still has another 362 Years Until The Dawn Of The True Age Of Aquarius. The transition (and downright survival!) into the next astrological age is a gradient process guided by those of us with strong Sidereal Aquarian traits to lead through these dark, final years of this confusing Piscean Age (0221-2376 CE). To loose a dedicated Aquarian sage like Alex deals a tragic blow to the future itself.
We have lost a bold Aquarian leader. Rest in peace my friend… and once well-rested feel free to pay us a visit from beyond, you know we need it!

(13 JAN 2014) It looks like the world has finally been tainted by a touch of sanity on Iran’s nuclear program, and that’s great news for the AM47 Alchemical Voyage. Without some kind of peace with Iran, AM47 will be impossible as the AM47 ship will need to dock at the Iranian port of Bandar-e-Abbas and then travel straight up through the center of Iran and into Turkmenistan to the ancient site of Gonur Depe: The birthplace of Zoroastrianism & 5th center of civilization.
The AM47 Point of Alchemical AIR (Mid-Sidereal Aquarius) manifests in Turkmenistan-Iran 1.5 months from now, and hence the AM47 ship is scheduled to arrive in Iran exactly 13.5 months from now. At that future date, the crew of the AM47 ship: The EL MANTRA, will generate, observe, dedicate and send the AIR point of the AM47 Pentaform into Awareness. If our so called “leaders” can hold it together , then The Alchemical Voyage might just have a chance after all.

The Magus, standing triumphant atop the chaotic dragon, which is supported by the Earth. Within the Earth is the alchemical formulae for squaring the circle. The circle represents God, the original unity, from which arises the trinity or triangle and then the square, God’s manifestation in the material universe.
“What you are about to read is the groundwork for an evolution in broadcast and feature infotainment. Alter Man is the working title for a visionary media project so original and evocative it could be described as The Amazing Race meets Nova and Myth Busters. In fact, an apt subtitle for the “Reality” segment of Alter Man would be MYTH HUNTERS. As intriguing as this concept is, the projects “pseudo-documentary” & multi-medium elements are even more innovative. Utilizing free-role-play of open scripted scenarios inspired by a true life voyage of discovery, Alter Man promises to produce episodic metafiction with an X-Files meets Jacques Cousteau explosive potential.”

It was mid-late 2006 when I was struggling to understand what my next creative move should be. I was considering Burning Man, yet how I would probably never venture out to it’s dusty desert location due to my chronic bronchitis. This project actually grew out of my desire to bring the culture and spectacle of Burning Man into places where I could enjoy it as well.
Gonur Tepe, the birthplace of Zoroastrianism is in Turkmenistan, next to the AM47 Point of AIR.

Four locations in perfect cross-quarter formation around the world are naturally manifesting the characteristics of the 4 Classical Elements of ALCHEMY. The goal of Project ALTER MaN 4 7 (AM47) is to film the journey of an alt-fuel ship that will circumnavigate the globe to connect all four of these points, one every three months, over the course of a year and in so doing raise the spiritual Awareness of mankind (the timing of the voyage is set to the ancient Egyptian/sidereal astrological year). Departing from the Point of FIRE in San Francisco, to the Point of WATER off the coast of Japan, to the Point of AIR in Turkmenistan, to the Point of EARTH in the Azores, and back to the Point of FIRE in San Francisco to complete the circle.
When the Sun aligns with the direct center or “Angel Point” of sidereal Aquarius, the Point of Elemental AIR (PoEA) can be expected to manifest in the vast, barren Kara Kum desert of Turkmenistan (just north of Iran). The next PoEA is on 29 Feb 2012 (and 28 Feb 2013, etc.). The AM47 ship was scheduled to have sailed from the Point of WATER off the coast of Japan and have docked at the Iranian port-city of Bandar-Abbas in the Straight of Hormuz by mid-Feb 2012. The crew of AM47 was then to travel north, overland through central Iran to Turkmenistan and into the Kara Kum desert to arrive at the PoEA at 37.47 N, 64.03 E on 29 Feb 2012 (and 28 Feb 2013, etc.). This point lies just east of the ancient city of Mary and the very ancient site of Gonur Tepe. Gonur Tepe is the recently discovered 5th center of world civilization of the ancient world (side by side with Mesopotamia, Egypt, India and China) that was the birthplace of Zoroastrianism (and hence Mithrasism and all monotheism), a religion based on the opposition of good and evil. There, the overland crew of AM47 was to generate, observe, dedicate and send Elemental AIR into Awareness.
(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!!

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.
