   The waning of the moon from full moon to new (dark) moon   
   can be symbolically represented as the rolling aside of   
   the tombstone, ushering in a new age at new moon.   
      
   This coming new moon, which I believe will mark the onset of   
   sudden magickal physical evolution (including of adults),   
   can also be represented by the Raven depicted in Bill   
   Reid’s massive carving of The Raven and The First Men   
   (a raven atop a clamshell from which people are emerging)   
   in The Museum of Anthropology at UBC in Vancouver,   
   close to where I did my naked sun stare, thorn hill climb,   
   and blue rose vision over 29 years ago.   
      
   I am documenting my latest magickal attempt in the thread   
   “invoking my four local main deities, in one last attempt”   
   on the newsgroup alt.magick, for those who might be   
   interested in tracking my progress.   
      
   Oh, a sample image of the carving is at
