Burning Man: Synchronicitypaloozathon...

Greg Wendt

Burning Man - wow... how to describe? I attempted to do so in an email to friends as, "An endless Interdimensional Mardi Gras and Carnaval for Mystics and Wizards inside a very large Salvador Dali Painting."

At the core of my experience and the experience of friends at Burning Man this year was "a continuous flow of Synchronicity.... or so Jason Keehn, AKA Cinnamon Twist, a veteran Burner, noted as we discussed it post-Burn.

Before I ventured to the desert, I wrote my latest entry "Meta-mythopoetic thoughts for a new future!" on my blog as an offering to others who would join me both phyically and spiritually at the Burn. I shared this entry and my thoughts about synchronicity with a new friend after I returned home and he responded thus in an email. Here is my poem and his response:

""synchro-photosythetic-meta-collective-mycelial-mind-

megavolutionary-metapoetic-magnametamorphosic-

emergent-effervescent-love-pulsation!'

He wrote, "Your poem makes my mind tingle with inquisitive excitement. Reflecting on our conversation about synchronicity and not becoming overwhelmed by the perfection of the moment and timing has been something
that's been floating around in my mind lately. By accepting the truth of our power and perfection and not let emotions overwhelm and make us question the divine purpose, presence and placement that we surround and embody ourselves with and everything around us, helps us evolve towards a higher consciousness that allows the space to bask and grow."

Yes, follow the Divine Story flowing through us, not only the details of the events!

As I arrived home from Burning Man at 6:00AM, I walked in my front door and noticed the amazing oracle deck made by my friend Delvin Solkinson which my other friend Erik Davis wrote about here on Reality Sandwich.

The card "Clear Spirit" was on top with the Robert Venosa painting "Shroom Glow" (above) as the artwork.....

I picked it up and read the words that Delvin wrote:

"open ceremony
medicine channel
life net
[getting dipped in the magic]

appearing through the veil
embracing the embrace
and working with the web
[planetary spiritual outreach]

healing textures
translating atmospheres into energy,
souls mingling
with the threads of return
[source magic]

solkin"

Delvin's words describe my experience of Burning Man precisely.

Synchronicity?

For me it was the continuation of the synchronicitypaloozathon...delivering us to Presence, Now.
