  • Pagan Anarchist Thomas Sheridan is an Author, Artist, Film Maker, and Satirist who has spent a life from Wall Street to the Jungles of South Asia attempting to discover the emerging-often elusive-mythology of modern humans within the present technology-saturated era. Heavily inspired by the work of Carl Jung, Bruno Bettelheim, and Joseph Campbell, Thomas Sheridan has developed ‘Monomythic’ tool kits-which draw upon all the mythologies of the world. So as to demonstrate that on a personal and collective level; these legends and stories contain within them a subconscious lexicon of wisdom and symbols that can help all of us overcome the personal and greater challenges we encounter in everyday life. By not giving birth and nurturing these timeless archetypes within us all, modern humans are at a loss when it comes to achieving personal and social Individuation. Or a rounding out of one’s purpose in life. Their dharma. Their Monomyth. Inside all of us resides a wizard, a warrior, a bard, and a knight and by tapping into the power of these archetypes one can have a more fulfilling and creative life. Every challenge a quest. Every situation a saga. Every moment is an adventure.

    Billy the cat looks content. You all know why cats always clean themselves? It's because they are delicious! I learned to stop worrying about everything all the time from the cats I've had. They're concerned about the immediate, but never the long term which is why they can relax and sleep so easily. I've done much better in my life by emulating that to a certain degree. I say a certain degree because we're only human and not a cat.

    I stumbled upon Damien Eccols (sorry I can’t remember how to spell his surname) last year learning about rituals and whatnot. I learned the middle pillar from him and others.
    I knew absolutely nothing of his history (not sure how that story went over my head but in ‘93 my world consisted of The Smiths, skateboarding, Matt Le Tissier and Calvin + Hobbes and other teenage kerfumblings) so I just took what he had to say about various occultic things at face value and was grateful for the way he put it over, he broke the parts of the rituals down and explained them really well and for me at the time he took a lot of the bollocks and stigma out of it.
    I feel blessed now to have learned from him.

    Hi Thomas thankyou for your expressing your beginnings into the world of magic . It’s strange because this or img I asked other artists what was their initiation into creating art. And as I told my story I could see that art and magic started for me, hand in hand . My grandmother had bought me a wonderful cheese plant which was situated smack bang in the middle of my tiny suburban bedroom and I wondered at its strength and beauty in such a dull place in the suburbs . I began to draw the plant and realised that I could actually see its energy as it grew. I realised then that we could harness this energy to send us on the most incredible psychic journeys . So I can understand your wondering if there was more to anormal lifestyle . I fell so privileged to have found it and work to watch it grow everyday. Thankyou so much for bringing this memory back . This is a great show .😊

    Here-Kitty-Kitty-Kitty, Kitty-Cat-Billy! The Marian incidences that occurred in former Caliphates potentially connected to Jinn is an engrossing proposition. I was a punk and played D&D through the Satanic panic. My friends and I laughed at it at every opportunity of which there were many. Damien Echols has written a fine book titled "High Magick'. It's well written. It's practicable. He does discuss Magickal practices he worked whilst in prison and he asserts that it did free him. I wont spoil it. A fine Von/Hocus Focus Mash-Up!

    I was fascinated by the Paradise Lost documentaries. It was unbelievable. First, I want to say that what those little boys went through must have been real hell and we shouldn't let their memory be lost in this, like so often happens in these situations. What went on in that town was completely insane. There are people in the occult world, especially on reddit, that still believe that Damien Echols is guilty. The worst part is, the person/s who did it got away with it completely because the entire town of zealots had tunnel vision.
    During the 80s, I watched nothing but horror movies and I was raised on Dungeons and Dragons. Luckily, my parents never cared about the satanic panic despite being very religious.
    The guys were given an Alford plea. Basically, they admit the evidence is overwhelming but they don't admit guilt. So they will legally be murderers. Ridiculous.

    I’ve been meaning to look up the Ballymun flats as you speak of them often; the estate is bigger than I imagined.
    Though what I think of when I see them is at least everyone in them is warm and there is decent sanitation but you are right children accept their surroundings as normal but they yearn for better which is as it should be.

    My Uncle on my Mothers side has a brother that became a Franciscan Monk much later in his life. My Aunt Jane died suddenly when she had a massive heart attack, they'd been married many years and had two children. It was the death of my aunt coupled with the tragic nature of my cousin who took his own life. I guess my Uncle in his younger years had thought about joining the Priesthood, but he met my Aunt and put that life aside until he became a widow and lost his son. The conversation is second hand as I wasn't told this directly, this came from my Mother after she had a conversation with her brother, my Uncle. He mentioned as what he described the Miracle of Garabandal. What my mother recalls and stated to me and my younger brother Darren was something to do with the Sun and he told my mother the sign would be near when it would be seen by many that the Sun was dancing in the sky. I don't know what to make of this comment and the conversation took place with my Mother and her brother and she didn't think to ask her brother to expand and explain further.

    Thomas's history was very interesting! It just seems that people who grow up in rough environments are just more fascinating in general. The memories more colorful and vivid. More... something... that I can't explain.
    I couldn't help but wonder about s possible Clinton connection to this West Memphis 3. Has anyone explored that possibility? Would the dates match up?

    Just wanted to bring to your attention...ALL previous and current Alternative View AV content has been removed from media platforms and put behind paywall on their website...to watch your presentation TS is $5 for 48 hrs access only rising to $30 for 14 days access only. ALL presentations from ANY previous event now require payment for access ....was this agreed by the presenters?? It doesn't seem particularly fair to memory of Iain, restricts access, but also given (I presume) that presenters volunteered shouldn't be monetised in the americanised way?

      I signed over the rights of all my AV content to AV for them to use as they wish. I did this because the AV team need to remain financially viable and stay in business. I can think of no better tribute to Ian. No one is getting money from this - it is all about funding the AV project going forwards so they can put on more events such as the sold out fantatic one recently held in Milton Keynes.
