Produktbeschreibung
In the last book of the Tales of a Jaguar Magician series, Lola activates the Ascension Portals. Before doing so, the jaguar magician must meet with just a few more masters. Time is an illusion and Lola gets a class in how to maneuver time when switching dimensions. The dazzling illustrations in this final book are painted with incredible detail. In an effort to stir up the incongruent use of symbols and glyphs in modern society communication, the characters use new spellings and new pronouns, like heshe. The books illustrations are superb and entertain both adult and young adult alike. The depth of exploration is unique. As Lola traverses the portals with the heartkeys, each one also quickens the magic in 3-D realms. The portals are a repositioning of universal laws and principles. Along with deep wizardry skills, the magician and heshe's master teacher, Ocelotl, they reawaken ancient philosophy and skills for achieving whole-brain thinking. The author approaches our dire state with whimsy and curiosity rather than a didactic, loathsome textbook. The books are a welcome addition to gender studies, consciousness studies and new mythology. Also, the books are a welcome addition to the plethora of contemporary art books, sense a story goes along with each painting. Not unlike William Blake's exploration of Christ consciousness and the creative process, these books have an underlying motive to deepen the conversation of how gender fluid, same-sex loving people are actually inherently important and useful to the health of modern society. Exploring the unification of dual consciousness or 'whole brain thinking', the author uses the device of the hero twin myths and revamps them to modern times. The books engage a level of mysticism that are easily approached and invite the reader to see the world more magically. The colors and placement of various symbols in the paintings are a treasure hunt and lesson in pattern tracking. This particular book explores attachment to the passions of life and the releasing of control so one can live in the moment. It also explores how to engage a relationship with the subtle energies (like intuition) in a world disastrously aligned with over stimulation. Readers will fall in love with the bizarre cast of characters and be carried away into a carnival of dreams. The depth of exploration into circus culture is another aspect of the books. Shapeshifting, whether a whacky drag queen or the surplus of masks we wear each day, is an art to explore the soul's navigation to enlightenment. The images could be attributed to the same affect as a bodhisattva and becoming one with the great mystery. In any case, one can get mesmerized on the adventurer's quest, where the main character, Lola sets off from a state of innocence to the profound. Certainly the book is parallel to the structure of a creation myth with it's invocation of origins in book 1, Flight of the Jaguar Magician. The series culminates in Book 5, the fifth act, what can possibly happen after the 'happily ever after' of fairytales. The fifth act is the redemption. Book 4 is the 'coming out' a play on the term used when gay people finally shared to their families and peers they were homosexual or multi-gendered. Indeed, come out! Come out from wherever you are and join Lola in the Vibration of the Hummingbird.
Autorenporträt
c. huilo c. is a full spectrum artist. Using various media formats to lift consciousness to new levels the author fully illustrates their books. c. huilo c. has exhibited and performed around the world. In each of their works, a phantasmagoric approach puts the view into a dream-like world of elves, wizards, ghouls and more. The writer is also a sculptor, performer, filmmaker, and painter. Noted by curators, is their sense of saturated colors that vibrate loudly on the canvas and dazzle the eyes. The sculptures, while abstract also illumined a sort of physical mythology about homoeroticism and the sacred. The characters in the books developed their own language and stir the cauldron of possibility using what the author terms, language of light, aka, queerly inspired. The author is a self-proclaimed wizard of sorts and has devoted their life to ecological recovery of the planet's life force, deeper discussion on why gender fluidity is inherently integral and important to the health of modern society. Tagged as a queer jester, lord of the dreamy phantasmagoria dragqueen a la magician, this author is one creative person. Early days they were inspired and heavily influenced by working in the adverstising world. Invoking techniques to shift perception and desire in positive ways, c. huilo c. uses strong references to symbolism. Beyond cultural appropriation, the author dances with all the stories told and brings new versions forward into the new millennia. Whether dancing with life size marrionettes on stage or behind the many masks they weave, c. huilo c. questions our reliance on identity as finite or fixed. If we are directors in our personal holosphere, who do we want to cast? The author is greatful to all their teachers and guides and now passes the baton to new generations in this and other tomes from Tales of a Jaguar Magician.
