“In 1975, mathematician Benoit Mandelbrot developed fractal geometry to describe irregularly shaped objects and natural phenomena that could not be expressed in conventional geometry. Unlike Euclidean geometry, which is concerned with shapes and whole-number dimensions, fractal geometry deals with shapes found in nature that have non-integer, or fractal dimensions. The result is that a fractal cannot be treated as existing strictly in one, two, of any other whole-number dimension.
Mandelbrot introduced the term ‘fractal’ to define these complex geometric shapes and explain the dynamic interactivity and interdependence of forces in nature. Like these forces, Mandelbrot-set fractals are symmetrical and self-similar, or have the tendency to replicate on an ever-smaller scale. Thus, if any component is magnified, it will look like the object as a whole….”

Brzezinski, Zbigniew. The Grand Chessboard - American Primacy and Its Geostrategic Imperatives. Basic
Books, 1997. From the back cover:
As the twentieth century draws to a close, the United States has emerged [like, without anyone having anything to do with it?!] as the world’s only superpower: no other nation possesses comparable military and economic power of has interests that bestride the globe. Yet the critical question facing America remains unanswered: What should be the nation’s global strategy for maintaining its exceptional position in the world? Zbignew Brzezinski tackles this question head-on in this incisive and pathbreaking book.” He should know. And also from the back cover: “Not everyone will agree that the U.S. must ‘perpetuate [its] own dominant position for at lest a generation and preferably longer,” but former National Security Advisor Brzezinski offers a meticulously detailed argument for how and why we should…” - Publisher’s Weekly, and: “…geostrategic thinking in the grand manner of Bismarck.” – Samuel P. Huntington.
...To put it in a terminology that harkens back to the more brutal age of ancient empires, the three grand imperatives of imperial geostrategy are to prevent collusion and maintain security dependence among the vassals, to keep tributaries pliant and protected, and to keep the barbarians from coming together.

Gall, Sally. Subterranea. Umbrage, 2003, and at sallygall.com. Photo-essay art. She says:
This almost always meant hour-long exposures in light too low for the best light meter to register. That is why some of my pictures are populated by invisible beings; for if there was a living participant in the subterranean drama – a sudden human visitor, a coyote, or a bat – its own movement rendered it a ghost.
I believe that I have fond visual correlatives for the human innerscape of emotion and experience, just below the surface of the earth. As an artist devoted to working with the black-on-white photographer’s palette of greys, I used to seek what I called ‘the perfect light.’ Now, in Subterranea’s internal landscape, I have discovered the substance of darkness.

Grabau, Francis Donald. The Christ Bomb, The Gnostic Ring of Power, The Enchanted Bomb, and other
writings. http://www.starpathvisions.com. Wow. The Christ Bomb is a full-scale complement to this work, using an unconventional astrological perspective. In The Enchanted Bomb, he observes:
Artificial elements and isotopes with their equally artificial radioactivity were 'created' from the Plane Of Mind, from abstract thought, from the invisible realm of Occultism. It's the region of subtle matter and energies not visible to the physical eye alone. In the case of a scientist-physicist such as Seaborg artificial eyes of cameras in consort with other machines are what detect, determine, and shape the invisible forces with which he works while 'wresting the Secrets from Nature'. But an Alchemist or Occultist employs the subtle organs of her/his own physical body-being to see, measure, and weigh the energies with which she/he COLLABORATES.
[Such occultists] work on this wholly different level because they consciously work with conscious matter, with forces and energies who are BEINGS and not ABSTRACTIONS. Such 'occultists' are scientists of the Spirit Realm, they are Lightning-Struck Master Storytellers who understand that first and foremost the real work is on one's own being. HEART is always the guide and compass, the 'inner-truth-magnet' of their lives. They work in, with, through, and for LOVE.
Our contact with Radioactivity surely indicates that we are ALL involved in the realm of the Occult, the realm of Invisible Spirit. We can no longer live on the surface of life. Whether we like it or not Plutonium demands that we enter the UNDERWORLD as well as all other alternate and simultaneous planes of reality that interface with our own individual and collective beings. Pluto, like Plutonium, is only the 'guard' at the entrance to these realms, and they are not realms of 'death' only - not even essentially…they are realms of unseen treasures. For Pluto guards the RADIANT ENERGY - the consciously transforming Spirit in the heart of all matters physical and subtle!
In his role of Guardian of the innermost secrets of Earth, Pluto stands before us as Hades, like a metallic mirror. A glossy wall of blackness so intense it is obsidian. A hard and obdurate rock of blackness, jet black, blacker than black. And as we face this blackest wall it reflects back to us our fear. Every ounce of 'NO' in us sees itself there. We refuse to move even one step further. Surely to touch that obscurity is to enter sheer oblivion. To enter there is total death, absolute annihilation, the final and ultimate end.
And that's Pluto's secret: the darkness of fear! Fear of the unknown, the invisible, death, finality, utter impotence. It's a palpably felt fear. It hurts. It's pain. And we wince before it, we cringe and turn away, we say we have recognized our limits. And so we have, if we live solely according to reason. For then we let reason lead us by the hand back to the plane of ordinary light where we can see familiarly and say that all is safe and well.
But this movement in us is cowardice. Our journey has led us nowhere and back again, and we return once more to the surface of things. On that ever so reasonable surface we understand Plutonium is lethally radioactive and all radioactivity produces cancer just as the scientists tell us. There is nothing we can do, we are caught again in the all-pervasive enchantment of the real and very objective world. But it's the TRANCE, the groove and rut of fear that teaches us to quit, to abandon courage as well as the unreasonable aspirations that nourish our dreams. We MUST be reasonable people and turn those dreams into products - like Art, and Science, and Fairy Tales for kids. They can exist, but only as dessert, after we've eaten the full-course dinner of 'reality' and 'earned' a living.
We've all had enough of this fear! We are literally sick to death of it. We're disgusted with a world that can't breathe, a world where nothing 'pays' but the trance and rut of reason. We see plainly that this thing, reason, has become our jail keeper locking us into reasonable cities full of reasonable pollution on all reasonable levels. The order and system of this would-be-reason has cut us off from the pulse in the rhythm of Nature's Song! Yet we want and need and yearn to sing that song, to enter into a life where joy and play restore to us all the radiant energy we have so reasonably forsaken. We need a new Vision, we need to contact and feel the spirit of matter, to see through our fear of radiation, of transmutation, of change.
*****
These thought-intentions tell us right now that our bodies are receiving rapidly increasing amounts of 'cosmic radiation' pouring in from 'space' through the ever widening hole in the Ozone layer. It's a hole we opened through stratospheric tests of nuclear bombs, through missiles, satellites, and 'probes' sent out to explore 'space'. We're bursting our own seams in an urgent need to reach a new kind of life. And we will, because the Ozone layer surrounds the Earth the way the amniotic waters surround the child in the womb. The breaking of the waters signals the birth of the child, and the collapse of the Ozone layer signals the new Life of Earth. Air rushes into the lungs of the new-born infant, 'cosmic radiation' rushes into Earth and All life forms on Earth through that hole. We are trying to birth ourselves, and if we are true Storytellers we can transmute our own cellular matter as Earth transmutes hers. That is the great challenge, the one truly spiritual goal we have given ourselves. Not Nirvana, Samadhi, or Heaven nor escape onto 'flying saucers'… but total transformation of ourselves here on Earth! We can consciously participate with Earth as she transforms herself. But insofar as we haven't yet recognized the consciousness of matter, how can we possibly imagine we have ever lived real life on the True Earth? Such a Life lived on such an Earth would be one of continuous spontaneous transformation. That's what Natural Uranium has shown us.
*****
Intelligence may dazzle us with its light, but its light is a 'Fat Man' or a 'Little Boy' afraid of the Dark. It turns Pluto into Plutonium because it fears the inevitability of its own demise. The reign of intelligent ignorance is drawing to a quick close as the Tale of the Darkness of Matter gives way to the radiant mutation of Light in the Cells. Man and Matter are well on their way toward spontaneous transformation, toward the unmasking of the Gnostic Christ within, toward the freedom of the Child who alone has the laughter and innocence necessary to enter the immanent Kingdom of heaven on Earth for, in truth the cause and nature of radioactivity is simple. It is JOY !!!

Jay, Susan. Visionary art reflecting the InnerWorlds. www.susancharlotjay.com. Her statement:
Susan Charlot Jay is an American artist of the Southwest working in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her contemporary fine art paintings and shrines celebrate the sacredness of the female body, the natural world and the mysteries of the Divine Feminine.
A devoted student of mysticism, shamanism, sacred art and wisdom traditions, her favorite subjects include: the Sacred Well, the Lingam and the Yoni, the Lotus and the Rose, the Four Directions, the Tree of Life from both shamanic and Kabbalist traditions and the symbols of ancient Alchemy.
Inspired by traditional representations of the Goddess, whether she be the Black Madonna, Guadalupe, the Celtic Goddesses of the West or the Eastern Goddesses of Hindu mythology and the luminous Dakinis of Tibetan Buddhism, Jay creates contemporary, cross-cultural images which rise above any particular cultural context or religious tradition to embrace a vision which is nature-based, universal, and essentially mystical in spirit.
Susan Charlot Jay's painting technique is a layering of textures and transparent glazes which create brilliant and luminous effects of color, surface and depth. These rich multi-layered visions refer to a multidimensional, intuitive reality beyond that which we typically experience with our five physical senses. Elaborate patterning and ornament speaks to the rapture and ecstasy which we associate with mystical experience. The shrines are an intriguing blend of mixed media: paint, clay, wood, glass and metalwork masterfully orchestrated to inspire a sense of wonder and mystery in the viewer.
Susan Charlot Jay's art process embraces the healing archetypes of the Holy Grail or the Alchemical Vessel. Within the framework of the vessel, whether it be painting, icon or shrine, Jay places symbols of the natural world: the four elements, birds, insects, animals, flowers and trees which create a symbolic portrait of a regenerative process or the Underworld Journey.
Understanding that the soul's native language is symbolism, her creative process is akin to ritual or ceremony that acknowledges rites of passage such as birth, death, growth and renewal. Symbolically tracking and illuminating life cycles through art is what Jay refers to as "the Art Mysteries"; that process by which the lead of our fear, confusion or pain is transformed into the gold of insight, vision and beauty. Through the manipulation of matter and the alteration of form, energies are addressed, transformed and elevated, which ultimately transforms the collective reality.

Johnson, Robert A. Owning Your Own Shadow. HarperSanFransisco, 1993. Altogether outstanding and
limpid treatment of this subject. Simple to understand, but not watered down. In Johnson’s terminology, the Shadow is the counterpart to the Persona. Anthroposophically, while the Shadow may reflect aspects of the much deeper Double, it is not at all the same thing.

"The people always long for a hero, a slayer of DRAGONS, when they feel the danger of psychic forces; hence the cry for Personality….
"The conflagration that broke out in Germany was the outcome of psychic conditions that are universal. The real danger signal is not the fiery sign that hung over Germany, but the unleashing of Atomic Energy, which has given the human race the power to annihilate itself completely…the facts can no longer be hushed-up or painted in rosy colors….
"The Man of today, who resembles more or less the collective ideal, has made his heart into a den of murderers, as can easily be proved by the analysis of his unconscious, even though he himself is not in the least disturbed by this fact. And insofar as he is normally adapted to his environment, it is true that the greatest infamy on the part of his group will not disturb him, so long as the Majority of his fellows steadfastly believe in the Exalted Morality of their Social Organization….
"The MASS STATE has NO INTENTION of promoting mutual understanding and the relationship of man to man; it strives rather for ATOMIZATION for THE PSYCHIC ISOLATION OF THE INDIVIDUAL. The more unrelated individuals are, the more consolidated the State becomes and vice versa….
"MAN harbors within himself a dangerous SHADOW, an ADVERSARY who is involved as an INVISIBLE HELPER in the DARK MACHINATIONS of the POLITICAL MONSTER. It is in the nature of political bodies always to see evil in the opposite group, just as the individual has an ineradicable tendency to get rid of everything he does not know and does not want to know about himself by foisting it off on somebody else…. "
"Spiritually the Western World is in a precarious situation, and the danger is greater the more we blind ourselves to the merciless truth with illusions about our beauty of soul. Western Man lives in a thick cloud of incense which he burns to himself so that his own countenance may be veiled from him in the smoke…..
"In theory, it lies within the power of reason to desist from experiments of such hellish scope as Nuclear Fission if only because of their dangerousness. But fear of the evil which one does not see in one's own bosom but always in somebody else's checks reason every time, although everyone knows that the use of this weapon means the certain end of our present human world. The fear of universal destruction may spare us the worst, yet the possibility of it will nevertheless hang over us like a dark cloud so long as no bridge is found across the world-wide psychic and political split -a bridge as certain as the existence of the Hydrogen Bomb. If only a World-Wide Consciousness Could Arise that all division and all fission are due to the splitting of opposites in the psyche, then we should know where to begin…people are largely unconscious of the fact that EVERY INDIVIDUAL IS A CELL IN THE STRUCTURE OF VARIOUS INTERNATIONAL ORGANISMS and is therefore CAUSALLY IMPLICATED IN THEIR CONFLICTS."
Donald Grabau comments, in his The Enchanted Bomb (note Soddy’s 1912 remarks in the Appendix I above) :
“PLUTO, alias Hades, had total control over the realm of secrecy. He was known as the Lord of the Hidden Realms, and his secret was a dark one. It was Death. He guarded his secret through Invisibility: he wore a special helmet that rendered him unseen to the human eye. In this regard, he resembles Radioactivity as an Invisible energy. But Pluto was also the Lord of Wealth. There was a treasure, according to our Western Mythological Tradition, hidden within the Earth. This treasure was not just the wealth of gold, diamonds, silver, and oil but ALL the Secret Energy of the mineral kingdom - the energy by means of which matter changed itself spontaneously from one form to another. The FIRE at the core of Earth, her molten heart is the source of that energy which is the living Consciousness of the Mother, the Matrix, Matter. Spirit, energy, matter are one -that's why we say that E = MC2. By what outrageous game of trickery, through what slight-of-hand, how did we as humans become so afraid of the very matter of our own home planet and our own bodies?” p. 30 – 31.
