THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS TO SEER RED CHESS ARMY ON THE MOVE ACROSS BOARD

One can imaginatively associate 'Agaresina' with a 'Red-Army-Chess piece' under 'Red Queen' whom was featured in Lewis Carroll's Alice adventure, 'Through The Looking Glass' and when to have first penned it the world was verily changing at a rapid pace around him.

In the 1800s, the rise of urban industrialization triggered the proliferation of Utopian projects (Agricultural Communes) in reaction, all of which failed. Utopia became the project of creating an ideal society apart from the demoralizing city. These Utopian projects were especially popular in Britain, France, and New England.  The Utopian celebration of common property and dependence upon extensive state planning were the groundwork for the political forces of both Communism and Socialism as presented in the written work of the Communist Manifesto.

The Communist Manifesto, was first published on February 21, 1848, and is one of the world's most influential political manuscripts. Commissioned by the Communist League and written by communist theorists Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels, it laid out the League's purposes and program. However, Marx does not have a lot to say about the precise form that Communism would take.

1848 was also a year of urban Revolutions and general upheaval, which duly affected Reverend Carroll's Anglican Church. Utopia’s criticisms of the nobility’s perversion of law to subjugate the poor were applied to the suffering of industrial and factory workers. The abolition of money, private property, and class structure would undermine the power of the bourgeoisie. Socialists believed that agricultural economies with property held in common would cure the ills of industrial capitalization.

Karl Marx perceived that there Five Epochs of progression in regards to the Evolution of Society, 1: Primitive Communism, 2: Slavery, 3: Feudalism, 4: Capitalism, finally and inevitably that of 5: Communism. All Five Epochs were associated with a Five-Pointed Star coloured ‘Red’ to symbolise the blood shed by the Workers.  

Although the names of both Friedrich Engels and Karl Marx appear on the title page of The Communist Manifesto alongside the “persistent assumption of joint-authorship,” (whom both shared a focus upon the Red Star motif) Engels, in the preface introduction to the 1883 German edition of the Manifesto, said that the Manifesto was "essentially Marx's work" and that "the basic thought... belongs solely and exclusively to Marx.” There is evidence to suggest that Engels composed an earlier, draft statement for a manifesto, which was then used as the basis for this, later, published document, the direct authorship of which can be attributed primarily to Marx.  It is claimed in the text itself to have been sketched by a group of Communists from various countries whom gathered together in London.

The Communist Manifesto's initial publication, in 1848 (in Berlin), was initially in German. The first English translation was produced by Helen Macfarlane in 1850. The Manifesto went through a number of editions from 1872 to 1890; notable new prefaces were written by Marx and Engels for the 1872 German edition, the 1882 Russian edition, the 1883 German edition, and the 1888 English edition. This edition, translated by Samuel Moore with the assistance of Engels, has been the most commonly used English text since.

The introduction begins with the notable comparison of Communism to a "spectre," claiming that across Europe Communism is feared, but not understood, and thus Communists ought to make their views known with a manifesto: A spectre is haunting Europe—the spectre of Communism. All the Powers of old Europe have entered into a holy alliance to exorcise this spectre: Pope and Czar, Metternich and Guizot, French Radicals and German police-spies. Where is the party in opposition that has not been decried as Communistic by its opponents in power? Where is the Opposition that has not hurled back the branding reproach of Communism, against the more advanced opposition parties, as well as against its reactionary adversaries?
 
The first section, "Bourgeois and Proletarians", puts forward Marx's neo-Hegelian version of history, historical materialism, claiming that the history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles. Freeman and slave, patrician and plebeian, lord and serf, guild-master and journeyman, in a word, oppressor and oppressed, stood in constant opposition to one another, carried on an uninterrupted, now hidden, now open fight, a fight that each time ended, either in a revolutionary re-constitution of society at large, or in the common ruin of the contending classes.

The section goes on to argue that the class struggle under capitalism is between those who own the means of production, the ruling class or bourgeoisie, and those who labour for a wage, the working class or proletariat. The bourgeoisie, wherever it has got the upper hand, has put an end to all feudal, patriarchal, idyllic relations. It ... has left remaining no other nexus between man and man than naked self-interest, than callous “cash payment” ... for exploitation, veiled by religious and political illusions, it has substituted naked, shameless, direct, brutal exploitation ... Constant revolutionizing of production, uninterrupted disturbance of all social conditions, everlasting uncertainty and agitation distinguish the bourgeois epoch from all earlier ones ... All that is solid melts into air, all that is holy is profaned, and man is at last compelled to face with sober senses, his real conditions of life, and his relations with his kind. However: The essential condition for the existence, and for the sway of the bourgeois class, is the formation and augmentation of capital; the condition for capital is wage-labour. Wage-labour rests exclusively on competition between the Labourers.

Further on down the Time-Line of Influence, in 1904, the newly founded branch of the Independent 'Labour Party' at Boldon acquired a convert in John James “Jack” Lawson, 1st Baron Lawson PC (16 October 1881 - 3 August 1965), whom was a British Trade Unionist and a Labour politician. A miner and later Member of Parliament in Durham, he served in the governments of Ramsay Macdonald and Clement Attlee. While Lawson was at Ruskin College he was exposed to Karl Marx, but he found a more compelling Utopian prophet when he read 'Lewis Carroll' to his daughters:

"Then one could look at life and affairs from the proper angle, for was not all our work to this end - that little children should live in their Wonderland, and mothers and fathers be heartful of the good of life, because they were".’

Upon the tail of many a word wrote spreading like wild fire the Bolshevik Revolution invariably came to pass, which began with an armed insurrection in Petrograd (also regarded as a coup d’état by the worker and soldier masses) traditionally dated to 25 October 1917 Julian calendar (7 November 1917 Gregorian calendar). It was the second phase of the overall Russian Revolution of 1917, after the February Revolution of the same year. The October Revolution overthrew the Russian Provisional Government and gave the power to the Soviets dominated by Bolsheviks. It was followed by the Russian Civil War (1917–1922) and the creation of the Soviet Union in 1922.
The revolution was led by the Bolsheviks.

The Bolshevik 'Red' Army (Russian: Workers’-Peasants’ Red Army) began the takeover of government buildings on 24 October; however 25 October (JC) was the date when the Winter Palace (the seat of the Provisional government located in Petrograd, then capital of Russia), was captured. The "Red" of Army was officially referred to the blood of the Working Class in their Communist struggle against Capitalism, and to the belief that all are equal just as the founder of Christianity once said whom Reverend Lewis Carroll to have known well to perceive ‘Through the Looking Glass’ darkly that all are as 'Chess Pieces' across Chessboard of the greater scheme of things yet to come, playing out their individual parts, but it be the 'Queens Red and White' who can go where they will while 'Alice' pointed towards the Future Past!

NAGUAL NAVAJO GIRL BERITHA: The Twenty-Eighth Spirit in Order of Valkyria, as Wodkhan bound them, is named Beritha. She is a Mighty, Great, and Terrible Duchess. She has other names given unto her of later times, viz: Beale, or Beal., and Bofry or Bolfry as well as Beruth. In his euphemistic account of the Phoenician deities, Sanchuniathon says:

“In their time is born a certain Elioun called “the Most High,” and a female named BERUTH, and these dwelt in the neighbourhood of Byblos.  And from them is born Epigeius or Autochthon, whom they afterwards called Sky; so that from him they named the element above us Sky because of the excellence of its beauty. And he has a sister born of the aforesaid parents, who was called Earth, and from her, he says, because of her beauty, they called the earth by the same name. And their father, the Most High, died in an encounter with wild beasts, and was deified, and his children offered to him libations and sacrifices.”

According to Sanchuniathon it is from Sky and Earth that El and various other deities are born, though ancient texts refer to El as creator of heaven and earth. The Hittite theogony knows of a primal god named Alulu who fathered Sky (and possibly Earth) who was overthrown by his son Sky, Sky then being overthrown by his son Kumarbi. A similar tradition seems to be at the basis of Sanchuniathon’s account. As to Beruth who is here the most high’s wife, a relationship with the Hebrew (Berith) Bərīt ‘Covenant’ or with the city of Beirut have both been suggested. However, the word Bərīt had originally originated from the Akkanadian (Babylonian) and that of the far elder prior Sumerian term ‘Biritu’ which means to ‘fetter’ or ‘to bond’, which thence to have become the later Phoenician 'Beruth'.

Sumeria was more than likely an Altaic colony whose original ancestors had escaped a Great Flood, which had hit the Altai (Altay) region of Southern Siberia in most ancient times, which has been discovered by Geologists. It is from the Genetic cradle of the Altai to Baikal region of Siberia that the North Chinese, Mongolian, Eurasian and Native American peoples had originally stemmed from.

Beritha appears in the form of a most beautiful young Native American woman of Navajo descent dressed in Red Clothing, riding upon a Red Iron Horse, and having a crowning band of Hopi and Zuni Gold around her hat to remind of her spiral Altai source. The colour Red of Medicine Wheel is associated with the 'Southern' quarter and the First Gate of 'Rubedo' Dreaming, through which she is a guide into the realm of the Nagual. She gives True answers concerning the Past, Present, and to come.

You must make use of a Ring in calling her forth, as is spoken of regarding Belithi. In Alchemy Berith is the element with which all Metals can be transmuted into Gold that many of the Native American Peoples perceive to be the sacred menstrual blood of the Earth Mother. She can give Dignities and can confirm them unto her Master as well as to teach him in depth about Alchemy, which to have its Sexual Secrets she to inform about via Erotic Dreams. She speaks with a very clear and subtle voice to tell much about the Nagualism of Toltec Sorcery, which to have informed the works of Carlos Castaneda. However, if she is not asked a direct question she will thence tell tall tales of imaginative fabrication and such to be convoluted of colourful weave to inspire many a story. The Erotic dreams she to bring are most sensual and she to love her Master with a most lustful passion. She governs 26 Legions of Female Spirits like her self.

CHAPTER EIGHT-LEGGED-MARE OF THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS

‘IT’S MY OWN INVENTION’

One can imaginatively associate the 'Red-Knight' featured in the 'Eighth' chapter of Lewis Carroll's Alice Adventure 'Through The Looking Glass' with 'Beritha', so as to perceive Feminine of Manifestation.

“The Gateway into the Native American Medicine wheel is that of the ‘Red’ Southern quarter, which holds the Heart, Fire, where the Rattlesnake arises. It is the place of the Waters and of Blood, more so the Blood of the Mother whom gives birth to all and that of her Moon, which watches over the Cycles of the Feminine; the 'Sacred Plants' are of the South, whom are the Elder first born upon the planet wherefore they are the Gate-Keepers of the First-Gate of Dreaming where the inner Child resides. The Red road of Emotion then leads towards the White North of Mind, which conceptualises as an Adult, where belief systems are ‘Invented’ through Language to be ‘Communicated’ but such can become as prisons of Paradigm when one forgets one has created such structures.”

(ALICE) After a while the noise seemed gradually to die away, till all was dead silence, and Alice lifted up her head in some alarm. There was no one to be seen, and her first thought was that she must have been Dreaming about the Lion and the Unicorn and those queer Anglo-Saxon Messengers. However, there was the great dish still lying at her feet, on which she had tried to cut the plum-cake, ‘So I wasn’t Dreaming, after all,’ she said to herself, ‘unless—unless we’re all part of the same Dream. Only I do hope it’s my Dream, and not the Red King’s!

“The Wars of the Roses (1453–1487) were a series of dynastic civil wars fought in England between supporters of the Houses of Lancaster and York. The name “Wars of the Roses” is not thought to have been used during the time of the wars but has its origins in the badges associated with the two royal houses, the WHITE Rose of York and the RED Rose of Lancaster. The term came into common use in the nineteenth century, after the publication of Anne of Geierstein by Sir Walter Scott. Scott based the name on a fictional scene in William Shakespeare’s play Henry VI Part 1, where the opposing sides pick their different-coloured Roses at the TempleChurch.”

(ALICE) I don’t like belonging to another person’s Dream,’ she went on in a rather complaining tone: ‘I’ve a great mind to go and wake him, and see what happens!’ At this moment her thoughts were interrupted by a loud shouting of ‘Ahoy! Ahoy!  Check!’ and a Knight, dressed in Crimson armour, came galloping down upon her, brandishing a great club. Just as he reached her, the horse stopped suddenly: ‘You’re my prisoner!’ the Knight cried, as he tumbled off his horse.

“Rubedo is a Latin word meaning “Redness” that was adopted by 15th and 16th century Alchemists to define the fourth major stage in the “Alchemical opus” in achieving enlightened consciousness and the total fusion of Spirit and Matter.”

(ALICE) Startled as she was, Alice was more frightened for him than for herself at the moment, and watched him with some anxiety as he mounted again. As soon as he was comfortably in the saddle, he began once more ‘You’re my -‘ but here another voice broke in ‘Ahoy! Ahoy! Check!’ and Alice looked round in some surprise for the new enemy.

“Albedo is one of the four major stages of Alchemy; it is a Latin term meaning “Whiteness”. The Albedo is literally referred to as Ablutio; the washing away of impurities by aqua vitae. Psychologist Carl Jung equated the Albedo withUunconscious Contra-sexual Soul Images; the Anima in men and Animus in women; it is a phase where insight into shadow projections are realized and inflated ego and unneeded conceptualizations are removed from the psyche.”

(ALICE) This time it was a White Knight. He drew up at Alice’s side, and tumbled off his horse just as the Red Knight had done: then he got on again, and the two Knights sat and looked at each other for some time without speaking. Alice looked from one to the other in some bewilderment.

“Yab-Yum is generally understood to represent the primordial (or Mystical) Union of RED-Wisdom and WHITE-Compassion, which is symbolically represented by Red-Menstrual-Blood and White-Semen. In Buddhism the Masculine form is Active, representing the Compassion and skilful means (Upaya) that have to be developed in order to reach enlightenment. The Feminine form is Passive and represents Wisdom (Prajna), which is also necessary to enlightenment. United, the figures symbolize the union necessary to overcome the veils of Maya, the false duality of object and subject.

(ALICE) ‘She’s my prisoner, you know!’ the Red Knight said at last.

Yab-Yum may also be represented through the aniconic signification of Yantra and Mandala. In Tibetan Buddhism, the same ideas are to be found concerning the Feminine-Bell and the Masculine-Dorje, which, like the yab-yum, symbolize the dualism that must be exceeded. The sacred Tantric practice leads to rapid development of the Mind by using the experience of Bliss, Non-Duality, and Ecstasy while in Sexual Communion with one’s Consort.”

(ALICE) ‘Yes, but then I came and rescued her!’ the White Knight replied.  ‘Well, we must fight for her, then,’ said the Red Knight, as he took up his helmet (which hung from the saddle, and was something the shape of a horse’s head) and put it on.

“In Hinduism the Yab-Yum has a slightly different meaning. There, the Embraced posture of Copulation between the couple represents the Divine strength of Creation.  The Hindu concept is the one of a Passive-Masculine deity embracing his Femine counterpart of spouse called Shakti, which represents his Activity or Power.  These figures are frequently worked in the shape of statues or relief’s, or are painted on Thangkas.”

(ALICE) ‘You will observe the Rules of Battle, of course?’ the White Knight remarked, putting on his helmet too.

“As a Tantric Sadhana, Yab-Yum is akin to the Kāmamudrā or “Loveseal” (sometimes Karmamudrā or “Actionseal”) (T:las kyi phyag rgya). This is the Tantric Yoga involving a physical partner in ones Battle of Love. However, the aim of the practice is to Control one’s Sexual energy, and the most advanced forms of Yab-Yum practice are done Mentally by usinng Medititaion, Visualisation and Lucid Dreams, without utilising a Physical Partner. Like all other Yogas, it cannot be practiced without the basis of the Inner (Fire-Shakti) Heat Yoga, Tummo, of which Kāmamudrā is an extension. This Sadhana is subsumed within the Six Yogas.”

(ALICE) ‘I always do,’ said the Red Knight, and they began banging away at each other with such fury that Alice got behind a tree to be out of the way of the blows.  ‘I wonder, now, what the Rules of Battle are,’ she said to herself, as she watched the fight, timidly peeping out from her hiding-place. ‘One Rule seems to be, that if one Knight hits the other, he knocks him off his horse; and, if he misses, he tumbles off himself—and another Rule seems to be that they hold their clubs with their arms, as if they were Punch and Judy—What a noise they make when they tumble! Just like a whole set of fire-irons falling into the fender! And how quiet the horses are! They let them get on and off them just as if they were tables!’

“In Chinese philosophy, the concept of Yin and Yang is used to describe how seemingly disjunct or opposing forces are interconnected and interdependent in the natural world, giving rise to each other in turn. The concept lies at the heart of many branches of classical Chinese science and philosophy, as well as being a primary guideline of traditional Chinese medicine, and a central principle of different forms of Chinese Martial arts, and exercise, such as baguazhang, taijiquan, and qigong as well as Sexual Alchemy.  Many natural dualities - e.g. Dark and Light, Female and Male, Low and High - are cast in Chinese thought as Yin and Yang.”

(ALICE) Another Rule of Battle, that Alice had not noticed, seemed to be that they always fell on their heads; and the battle ended with their both falling off in this way, side by side. When they got up again, they shook hands, and then the Red Knight mounted and galloped off.

“The relationship between Yin and Yang is often described in terms of sunlight playing over a mountain and in the valley. Yin (literally the ‘shady place’ or ‘North slope’ ie: Vagina) is the dark area occluded by the mountain’s bulk, while yang (literally the ‘sunny place’ or ‘South slope’ ie: Phallus) is the brightly lit portion. As the Sun moves across the sky, Yin and Yang gradually trade places with each other, revealing what was obscured and obscuring what was revealed. Yin is usually characterized as slow, soft, insubstantial, diffuse, cold, wet, and tranquil. It is generally associated with the Feminine, Birth and Generation, and with the Night. Yang, by contrast, is characterized as Hard, Fast, Solid, Dry, Focused, Hot, and Aggressive and is associated with Masculinity and Daytime; when out of balance Yin and Yang are perceived to be in conflict with each other.”

(ALICE) ‘It was a glorious victory, wasn’t it?’ said the White Knight, as he came up panting.

“Although the Roses were occasionally used as symbols during the Wars of the Roses, most of the participants wore badges associated with their immediate feudal lords or protectors. For example, Henry’s forces at Bosworth fought under the banner of a 'Red Dragon', while the Yorkist army used Richard III’s personal symbol of a 'White Boar'. Evidence of the importance of the Rose symbols at the time, however, includes the fact that King Henry VII chose at the end of the wars to combine the Red and White Roses into a Single RED and WHITE Tudor Rose.” 

(ALICE) ‘I don’t know,’ Alice said doubtfully. ‘I don’t want to be anybody’s prisoner. I want to be a QUEEN.’

"When Yin and Yang are in balance united one has 'Tao', which precedes and encompasses the universe. As with other nondualistic philosophies, all the observable objects in the world - referred to in the Tao Te Ching as ‘the named’ or ‘the ten thousand things’ - are considered to be manifestations of Tao, and can only operate within the boundaries of Tao.  Tao is, by contrast, often referred to as ‘the nameless’, because neither it nor its principles can ever be adequately expressed in words. It is conceived, for example, with neither shape nor form, as simultaneously perfectly still and constantly moving, as both larger than the largest thing and smaller than the smallest, because the words that describe shape, movement, size, or other qualities always create dichotomies, and Tao is always a unity.  While the Tao cannot be expressed, Taoism holds that it can be known, and its principles can be followed. Much of Taoist writing focuses on the value of following the Tao - called Te (Virtue) - and of the ultimate uselessness of trying to understand or control Tao outright to make it as ones 'Prisoner'. This is often expressed through Yin and Yang arguments, where every action creates a counter-action as a Natural, unavoidable movement within manifestations of the Tao."

When one has attained the 'Pink-'Rose' of 'Tao' one can thence fuse Two Horses into one of 'Eight-Legged-Mare' to Trance Ride gliding over Wyrd web woven to Warp Cubic-Space-Time, Travelling without Moving.

The Red Knight Beritha will show one how to get there, but one must also know of the White Knight Orobasi so as to win the Tao-Rose of Alice.

SIRIUS COYOTE GIRL AIMEA: The Twenty-Third Spirit is Aimea or AIM. She is a Great Strong Duchess. She appears in the form of a most beautiful Native American woman whose feline cougar body is young, lithe and firm. Around her shoulders will be wrapped a rearing Rattlesnake, which to symbolise her power to arouse the Reptilian-Brain-Stem of her Master in order for him to access her inner womb realm via Trance and Dream as well as to represent her affecting a Viper erection of his spitting Lingam she to duly ride via those most Erotic Dreams she to induce as a Succubus; she will be wearing Calf skin Chaps and tasselled waistcoat of same material.

She will sometimes be seen riding her Rattlesnake or to be driving a 666 Mustang upon whose bodywork will be observed the motif of a Viper. Upon her head she to wear a Sombrero of Peyote Ceremony upon which will be observed two stars of the 'Binary Blue Star Kachina', otherwise known as Sirius whose round of time indicates those times of deep Trance ingress to Howl internal as a Coyote. Within her hand she to be carrying a Firebrand, with this she sets fire to Churches, Cities, Fortresses and Great Places, which are owned by her people’s oppressors or that of her Masters Enemies she to Aim for to shoot.

She is a mixture of both Mescalero Apache and hot Mexican to relate much about her colourful though tortured ancestry. Her Firebrand also represents the inner Light of the Bio-Photon, which to emanate from within the Serpentine Mitochondrial DNA, wherein to be found at every 23rd Skiddoo Angstrom a Mutation to occur when to ‘Split’ apart of Shamanic Dismemberment so as to self Replicate under Blue Star Kachina. She makes ones Head to 'Light' up 'Crystalline' of 'Skull' whereby one becomes witty in all manner of 'Heyoka' ways to walk the path of the Coyote. She gives true answers concerning private matters as well as to teach her Master in depth about the ways of the Guerilla Ontology 'Dog-Soldier' Brujo whose Critical-Paranoia Thoughts are as Arrows shot from Mind of Bow. She governs 26 Legions of Protest Ghost-Dancing Spirits like her self.  

MAD HATTER HEYOKA OF CRITICAL PARANOIA WONDERLAND

One can imaginatively associate 'Aimea' with Lewis Carroll's 'Mad Hatter' featured in 'Alice's Adventures In Wonderland' to make Feminine of Succubus expression whose alternate Critical-Paranoia 'Mad-Tea-Party' would be that of partaking of Magick-Mushrooms and Peyote, whence a Mad Hatters Hat takes on the semblance of a Mushroom Cap Sombrero to Light up orgasmic as a spinning disk of UFO!

The Phrase to be ‘as Mad as a Hatter,’ which is said to have influenced Carroll's creation of Hatter character originally meant that one was a Jester, Joker, Jokester, Fool, Wit-Cracker, Prankster, or Buffoon, whom were considered quite Wise in their Madness, which refers to members of a profession that came into popularity during the Middle-Ages. Jesters are always thought to have worn brightly coloured clothes and eccentric ‘Hats’ in a motley pattern. Their ‘Hats’, sometimes called the cap ’n’ bells, cockscomb (obsolete coxcomb), were especially distinctive; made of cloth, they were floppy with three points (Liliripes) each of which had a jingle bell at the end. The three points of the ‘Hat’ is usually perceived as representing donkey’s ears and tail worn by Jesters in earlier times; however the three points of ‘Hat’ were originally that of Horns.

Other things, which were distinctive about the Jester was their outrageous laughter as well as having mock sceptres, known as a bauble or Marotte. In regards to the ‘as Mad as a Hatters Jesters Hat’ one will thence perceive the symbolic connection with Carroll’s Hatter’s Top-Hat masking the Jesters Horned Hat, which in the time of Carroll and now of present would be seen as being worn by an inspired Mad Inventor or that of a Mercurial Crazy Scientist.

As for Carroll’s “10/6” Card on the Hatter’s oversized Top-Hat it means Ten shillings and Six pence (or Half a Guinea), the price of the Hat in pre-decimalised British money and is usually perceived as a visual indication of the Hatter’s trade. However, if one to look at the numerology of the Norse and Saxon Runes, which has been left unchanged for a considerable amount of time and far older than that of the Hebrew Gemetria ascribed to the Tarot-‘Cards’ one will find '10' and 'Six' refers to two Runes and when added together one has a Third Rune numbered 16, whereby symbolically referring to the Jesters ‘Three Horned Hat’. The Third Rune is that of ‘Sigil/Sunna’, meaning the ‘Sun, which the Northern Pagan faith perceived as being Feminine of influence; in ancient times Shamans wore Horned Crowns/Hats, which often sported Stag/Reindeer Horns betwixt which the 'Sun-Disk' was perceived to reside above the Shamans Head. 

As for the Two other Runes one has the 10th Rune of 'Nyd', which represents 'Fire-Sticks' and the 6th Rune of 'Cen' means 'Fire-Torch,' both of these Runes refer to the 'Shamanic state of Ecstastic Madness' when a Shaman feels that there is a 'Fire in his Head' to thence perceive an 'Inner Light', which is equated with the 'Sun'. When the sum total of Runes numbering 16 is reduced down to 7 one has the Rune of 'Gebo', which means 'Self-Sacrifice' and that of a 'Gift'. I do not think Carroll's choice of numbers on the Hatters 'Card' was merely coincidence in regards to a Runic code.

   There have been numerous scholars who have looked into the medieval phenomenon of the Court Jester, some of whom have perceived Pagan roots leading them thence into possible shadowy Witchcraft practices of Old Europe, most have not, one such scholar is David Carlyon whose perception is more reserved on such matters has cast doubt on the "daring political Jester," calling the historical tales about the Jester as being merely "apocryphal," and concluding that 'popular culture embraces a sentimental image of the Clown; writers reproduce that sentimentality in the Jester, and academics in the Trickster,' but it "falters as analysis." However, this does not take into account Mythic references to the Sacred Fool such as the Trickster God Loki from out of Norse Mythology who was probably originally based upon the Finn/Lapp Goddess Louhi as well as numerous references to the Sacred Fool in Pagan folklore whose particular symbol of office was that of an 'Adder' or 'Viper', which became that of the 'mock sceptre' masking a one time staff/wand for the Jesters were once seen as being 'Adder-Head Druids' who in essence were originally 'Mercurial' European Shamans.

There is also a strong possibility that the phrase as 'Mad as a Hatter' was originally ‘as Mad as an Adder’, i.e. a 'Viper', which corresponds with the old American expression ‘as Mad as a Cut Snake’. The phrase 'Adder' and 'Cut Snake' appears to have originally referred to the Saxon Shamanic deity called Woden whom was seen as having in depth skills as a Wizard and Sorcerer.  There is evidence of this in the oldest pieces of extant Anglo Saxon verse, the Nine Herb Charms:

“The Snake came crawling and struck at none.  But Woden took Nine Glory-Twigs and struck the Adder so that it flew into Nine parts.”

  We know from place-names that there was a centre of Woden worship above the Vale of Pewsey in Britain. Woden was the most widely honoured of the Heathen Gods in Old England; we find him commemorated as the patron of settlements among the Angles of Northumbria, the East and West Saxons of Essex and Wessex, and the Jutes of Kent. There is no shadow of a doubt that the aristocracy of the Old English looked upon Woden as their chief God; the genealogies of the kings bear witness to the former dignity of Woden's name, for even in Christian times the royal houses of Kent, Essex, Wessex, Deira, Bernicia and East Anglia all traced their lineages back to Woden.
The Old English regarded Woden as a leader of a Wild Hunt of the lost souls or homeless dead; proof in their identifying him with the Roman God Mercury is shown here in the rather Christian biased tenth-century Kemble's 'Solomon and Saturn':

Once there lived a man who was 'Mercury' called;
He was vastly deceitful
And cunning in his deeds,
He loved well to steal
And all lying tricks;
The Heathens had made him
The highest of their Gods,
And at the Cross-Roads
They offered him booty
And to the high hills
Brought him victims to slay;
This God was most honoured
Among all the Heathen;
His name when translated
To Danish is Odinn.

Woden had another most important characteristic, which was that of inducing a 'Trance' state of ‘ Ecstatic Inspired Madness' and that of 'Creative Fury’, which Sorcerers, Poets and Warriors aspired to also attain in order to transcend their mundane consciousness, and in such a 'Trance' state of Mind they could thence behold divinity. Woden also wore a distinctive over-sized floppy Wizards 'Hat' as well as being the Master of the 'Runes' and Rune-'Song'-Spells known as the art of 'Galdr'. It is no doubt that Carroll knew of Woden's Ecstatic 'Madness' and floppy 'Hat' whom was versed in 'Galdr' Rune 'Songs' just as J.R.R Tolkien knew about him for Tolkein based his Wizard character of 'Gandalf' upon the Anglo-Saxon mythic description of Woden; in other words, Carroll's Hatter also appears to be masking the mythic characteristics of Woden whom was perceived to be a Mercurial Sacred Trickster.

In Medieval societies where freedom of speech was not recognized as a right, the Trickster of Court Jester could say almost anything for by definition 'their Jests' were but 'the uttering of a Sacred Fool,' hence they were enabled to speak frankly on controversial issues in a way in which most anyone else would have been severely punished for, and monarchs understood the usefulness of having such a person at their side. However, this had more to do with a previous perception when the Jester of a one time Druid was seen as being the mouthpiece of a Deity, when in a Shamanic Trance-state of 'Ecstatic Madness'. Still, even the Jester was not entirely immune from punishment, and therefore needed to walk a thin line and exercise careful judgment on how far to go with such Jests, which required the Jester to be far from an inept ‘Fool’ in the modern sense of the word, which is usually perceived as being inane stupidity; the Jesters were more like that of a 'Wise Sacred Fool' whom are at one with Spirit and therefore could perceive what was really going on behind the scenes via their 'Critical-Paranoia' Trance-sight of 'Singular-Eyed' Seer.

The position of the Joker playing card, as a wild card which has no fixed place in the hierarchy of King, Queen, Knave etc, might be a remnant of this position of the court Jester, perhaps this is the reasoning why Carroll’s Hatter was singing a song for the 'Queen of Hearts'; however, the Hatter’s song Murdered Time, 'that is, halted its movement', whereby indicating that the Hatter’s song was more like that of a Magical (Galdr) Spell, which caused the Queen of Hearts Time-keeping to go all out of whack for she found her self caught in a state where there was ‘No Sense of Time;’ when the Queen of Hearts realised what was going on she duly reacted as an irate Queen Victoria of Woden lineage by ordering the Hatter’s execution, which with panache of a Druid the Hatter verily escaped from with his Shamanic Head still attached to his Jesters body!

The Jester of Sacred Fool can be found in many other cultures throughout history especially that of the Native American where one can find an example of the Contrary-Wise Heyoka, which will lend deeper insight into what the pre-Christian Pagan Jester of one time Druidic Shaman was possibly like.

The word Heyoka refers to the Lakota concept of a Contrarian, Jester, Satirist or Sacred Clown of special importance. Heyoka’s are thought of as being Backwards-Forwards, Upside-Down, or Contrary in Nature. This spirit of Heyoka is often manifest by doing things backwards or unconventionally - riding a Horse backwards, wearing clothes inside-out, or speaking in a backwards language. For example, if food were scarce, a Heyoka would sit around and complain about how full he was; during a baking hot heat wave a Heyoka would shiver with cold and put on gloves and cover himself with a thick blanket. Similarly, when it is 40 degrees below freezing he will wander around naked for hours complaining that it is too hot. A unique example is the famous Heyoka Sacred Clown called “the Straighten-Outer”:

"He was always running around with a hammer trying to flatten round and curvy things (soup bowls, eggs, wagon wheels, etc.), thus making them straight."

John Fire Lame Deer, Seeker of Visions, p250: During the Sun Dance, "a Heyoka Sacred Clown may appear to tempt the dancers with water and food and to dance backwards around the circle in a show of respect. If a dancer looks into the mirrored eyes of the Heyoka, his or her dance is finished."

"The Heyoka symbolises and portrays many aspects of the sacred, the Wakan. Their satire presents important questions by fooling around. They ask difficult questions, and say things others are too afraid to say. By reading between the lines, the audience is able to think about things not usually thought about, or to look at things in a different way."

Principally, the Heyoka functions both as a Mirror and a Teacher, using extreme behaviours to Mirror others, thereby forcing them to examine their own doubts, fears, hatreds, and weaknesses. Heyokas also have the power to heal emotional pain; such power comes from the experience of shame - they sing of shameful events in their lives, beg for food, and live as Clowns. They provoke laughter in distressing situations of despair and provoke fear and chaos when people feel complacent and overly secure, to keep them from taking themselves too seriously or believing they are more powerful than they are.  In addition, Sacred Clowns serve an important role in shaping tribal codes.  Heyokas don’t seem to care about taboos, rules, regulations, social norms, or boundaries. Paradoxically, however, it is by violating these norms and taboos that they help to define the accepted boundaries, rules, and societal guidelines for ethical and moral behaviour. This is because they are the only ones who can ask "Why?" about sensitive topics and employ satire to question the specialists and carriers of sacred knowledge or those in positions of power and authority.  In doing so, they demonstrate concretely the theories of balance and imbalance.  Their role is to penetrate deception, turn over rocks, and create a deeper awareness.

"For people who are as poor as us, who have lost everything, who had to endure so much death and sadness, laughter is a precious gift. When we were dying like flies from white man’s disease, when we were driven into reservations, when the government rations did not arrive and we were starving, watching the pranks and capers of Heyoka were a blessing." (John Fire Lame Deer, Seeker of Visions, p250)

Wicasa Wakan means Holy Man, not "Medicine Man" or "Shaman" (a term of Siberian origin). This is an important distinction. A Lakota Medicine Man is called Pejuta Wacasa, Thunder Dreamer. It is believed among the Lakota that if you had a Dream or a vision of Birds you were destined to be a Medicine Man, but if you had a vision of the Wakinyan Thunderbird, it was your destiny to become a Heyoka, or Sacred Clown. Like the Thunderbird, the Heyoka are both feared and held in reverence.

"When a vision comes from the Thunder beings of the West, it comes with terror like a thunder storm; but when the storm of vision has passed, the world is greener and happier; for wherever the truth of vision comes upon the world, it is like a rain. The world, you see, is happier after the terror of the storm... you have noticed that truth comes into this world with two faces. One is sad with suffering, and the other laughs; but it is the same face, laughing or weeping... as lightning illuminates the dark, for it is the power of lightning that Heyokas have." (Black Elk, quoted in Neihardt (1959), p160)

"The Heyoka are healers and have many functions, for example healing through laughter and awakening people to deeper meaning and concealed truth and to prepare the people for oncoming disaster with laughter."

A recurring theme in Neil Gaiman’s novel ‘American Gods’ is the appearance of the ‘Thunderbird’ in the Dreams of the protagonist, Shadow. This is one of the events that leads to his role as a Heyoka who helps usher in a drastic change between the Deities of the Old World and those of the New World.  In 2005, artist John LeKay founded heyokamagazine.com, an environmental and art site, which includes articles on the Lakota people. He said, "Heyoka is Lakota Sioux for contrarian or sacred clown. The traditional Heyoka are quite fascinating the way they brought about balance, self awareness, a kind of reality check and order by doing this in similar ways; makes me think of Lenny Bruce and his humour which was deadly serious and lethal like a Zen slap or a bucket of ice cold water over your head."

One can hear the Heyoka 'Mad Hatter' ask his famous Runic Riddle: "Why is a
Raven like a Writing Desk?"

To also, now ask,

"How does a One Eyed Raven Write Runes?"

But then, in 'Muninn' hindsight, if the 'Deacon' had revealed too much, he would have been considered to be a 'Heathen'!

That would not do, for then all the Good Little Christian Girls would verily Rune away!
