The Axis is the primordial chasm beings access whence traveling between the dream realm, and this "waking" reality. Other variants of it's form can also allow us to visit the Underworld, the Heavens, and other Mythic & Subtle Dimensions. Our compasses for these channels are personified by appearing as our ancestral-animal spirit guides, or Totems, to Tour us over these Bridges.
Mythic Imagination refers to the ancient archetypal forms that our sigils or glyphs take while traversing the Realm of Dreams, while learning to perceive, invoke, and harness their energies. These glyphs are tied to spirit in custom form cosmically crafted for the path of the seeker.
The Realm of Dreams & the Realm of Imagination overlap in many scapes, so the Axis of Mythic Imagination refers to the Dream-Waking Realms' pathway of Imaginative Manifestation... and bringing things back with us from the dream world with consciousness, including our archetypal seals and crests of our Infinity Families & Tribes.
This Mythic Axis is the gateway to the manifest of Art, Music, Poetry, and all that is of the Creative Collaboration Essences through the Muse of Awen.
Successful Transportation & Navigation of this Axis represents Completion of the second phase in the Quest of the Shamanic Shapeshifter, after Mastering the Paradox of Opposites.
When the energy of the esoteric calls, we answer, with no exchange or sacrifice, only committing to walking the path of the highest collective good, destine for our spirits... that which makes us whole.
This Tribe of True Kin was once a Dream in the Imaginative, just as this Album. Axis {Part 1} is the first of a Twin double album Birth. Let it's manifestation serve as an eternal reminder of the infinite possibilities that can still be reborn, and that Dreams really do come True when you see Universal Trust through.
What if things turn out even better that you could possibly imagine?
WE are the Kin of Merlin
the Symphony of the Phoenix
Paladins of Awen
Knights of the Sound Table
Ascendants of Avalon
Lyrical Sorcerers
Cascadian Clerics
Word Wizards
Keepers of Cosmic Celebration
Guardians of Gaia
And Summoners of the Sacred Circles
Pull a Dream Rose, & Bless the Method.
