Keep Your Devil! - Episode 3
Commentary on "Occult objects in your house give demons legal ground" originally uploaded by Steven Bancarz.
Article I, section 8 of the Constitution empowers Congress to "promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries." U.S. Const. art. I, § 8, cl. 8. Pursuant to that power, Congress enacted the Copyright Act of 1976, Pub. L. No. 94-553, 90 Stat. 2541 (1976) (codified as amended at 17 U.S.C. § 101 et seq. (1994)) ("the Copyright Act" or "the 1976 Act"). Section 106 of the Copyright Act provides,inter alia, that the owner of a copyright under Title 17 of the United States Code "has the exclusive rights . . . to reproduce the copyrighted work in copies," and to "authorize" such reproduction. 17 U.S.C. § 106(1) (1994). Those "exclusive rights," however, are "[s]ubject to" limitations codified in "sections 107 through 120" of the 1976 Act.Id.§ 106. For present purposes, the most important of those limitations is found in section 107 of the Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 107 (1994). That section, which is entitled "Limitations on exclusive rights: Fair use," provides, in pertinent part: Notwithstanding the provisions of section[] 106 . . . , the fair use of a copyrighted work, including such use by reproduction in copies . . . , for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching (including multiple copies for classroom use), scholarship, or research, is not an infringement of copyright. In determining whether the use made of a work in any particular case is a fair use the factors to be considered shall include -- (1) the purpose and character of the use, including whether such use is of a commercial nature or is for nonprofit educational purposes; (2) the nature of the copyrighted work; (3) the amount and substantiality of the portion used in relation to the copyrighted work as a whole; and (4) the effect of the use upon the potential market for or value of the copyrighted work.

Essence of Tarot's Star
The Star of Tarot summons you to find your true Will, Love, and Self. Our Aquarian Lady is the Light of Venus as well as the symbolic north star that only you know about, and Her calling is the enactment of the Magdalene Mysteries. Anywhere online you can go for simplified "explanations" of the card, so I wanted to do something new and make an experience of it. Dedicated to all the lost souls of the world - May you find your Self, and The Way out. May you also create a New Way. You are Loved. Know and Feel that.

Where is James Swagger?
Looking for this Irish researcher and engineer, also known as E. A. James Swagger, whose youtube channel has disappeared and whose facebook pages (both personal and public figure) have gone silent since late 2016. He is the creator and host of Capricorn Radio, which was similar in nature to Coast To Coast with Art Bell & George Noori, covering mostly ancient sites and pagan spirituality. Below is a link to a talk he gave in Glastonbury in 2016 on the origins and cosmology of the builders of ancient monoliths throughout what is now the U.K. Below that is a link to an interview he did on his Capricorn Radio show with another great teacher of the ancient wisdom, who has now passed on, Gerald Clark.

Essence of Tarot's Fool (re-upload)
This is intended to be a leap into the void of the Fool's being. Anywhere online you can go for simplified "explanations" of the card, so I wanted to do something new and make an experience of it. Many of the clips and quotes you find here were not taken from people addressing Tarot at all. This is the realm of Trickster Gods and Artists' Inspiration and the Tao; also of what Clive Barker called the Magic of Imagination...Imajica.

Essence of Taro~s~Rota
Climb aboard the ever-revolving Wheel of Fortune, or, step around back to operate it from its axle. It’s all about the number 10, the Ring enjoining the Rod, the Net of Ten to which the Sator Square is a key. Anywhere online you can go for simplified "explanations" of the card, so I wanted to do something new and make an experience of it.
