“One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light,
but by making the darkness conscious. — Carl Jung”

I love Gothic, Sci-fi, Vampire, Witch, Rune & Tolkien Genres in Movies like “BLADE RUNNER”, “MATRIX“, “BATMAN BEGINS”, “UNDERWORLD”, “DRESDEN FILES”, “PERFECT CREATURE“, “LORD OF THE RINGS.” & my Favorite the Long Version of “DUNE“.  It probably started reading Bram Stoker, when his Book “DRACULA” penetrated the pristine veneer of my Judeo-Christian Matrix & enraptured me into a deeper world of dark white bliss. I had similar feelings with Hesse’s “Demian” and Bronte’s “Wuthering Heights” but Dracula really possessed me with The QUESTION Of DEATH. How can the Christian Light destroy the Night? How can our finite sun/son destroy the infinite power of the DARK SIDE of the universe that gave it life & is continuously creating & destroying countless other suns/sons? How can I make the darkness conscious? These questions reawakened something in me, which others may call Gothic Mysticism & what I have learned to call the “XOTING”.

Laguz is the rune of water. Usually this is understood as a body of water, a lake or pond or even the waters that flow to and from life. Laguz is the salty sea of amniotic fluid that brings us to Midgard, and the dark waters that carries the ship of the dead to the Otheworld. But on this occasion, on the shores of Emerald Bay, laguz was the waterfall, roaring with the power of mighty Gods, wakening those parts of us that may have fallen asleep. Look at the stave of the rune itself; you can see it as the falling water.
