WikiLeaks: Clinton Campaign Chair Participated in Occult Magic | LifeZette

John Podesta and others in Hillary Clinton’s inner circle may actively participate in bizarre occult rituals, according to an astonishing email released by WikiLeaks in October. While powerful political insiders partaking in ceremonies that have been described as Satanic may seem like something that could exist only in a Dennis Wheatley novel, a June 2015 conversation between Podesta and famed performance artist and occultist Marina Abramović proves such scenarios are chillingly real. “If you are doing it in different context, in spiritual circles or private house or on TV shows, it is not art.” “Dear Tony,” wrote Abramović. “I am so looking forward to the Spirit Cooking dinner at my place. Do you think you will be able to let me know if your brother is joining?” Abramović’s “Spirit Cooking” is little more than a series occult rituals and spells, some of which include blood sacrifice, video footage suggests.

Tarot Contemplation – The Lovers

When making choices today, take a long-term, heart-centered perspective.  Put the feelings and well being of yourself and your loved ones first.  A choice made purely from logic that goes against what feels good or right is not the right choice today.  Ask yourself if your head and your heart are united.  If you have a decision to make now, tune in to your heart’s desire, but also pay attention to logic.  If you are acting out of love, you are on the right path.  Take responsibility and ownership for the choices you have made.

GD_Tarot_KingSwords

Today, either an aspect of yourself or a literal someone with similar characteristics will emerge before you.  Take this as your guidance, still riding the energetic wave of Justice as reinforced by yesterday’s Hermit.  This King is a mastermind.  He has a mature, calm, analytical intellect which he uses in the pursuit of truth and justice.  He is a direct communicator and an absolute professional.  His decisions are based on careful thought.  He knows who he is and is committed to his own truth.  He will not bend to peer pressure or societal norms.  He is assertive and can even be aggressive in the pursuit of justice.  He is ethical and does not sway from what he believes is right.  He is not one to consider the emotions of himself or others when they are in conflict with logic or ethics.  The King of Swords is an excellent observer and can offer an objective perspective in confusing situations.  He may value ideas over relationships, or do things that make it seem like he does.

Tarot Contemplation – The Hermit

GD TAROT_HermitSolitude is your friend today. Make sure you get plenty of alone time. Get to know yourself. What you learn will help you in more ways than you know. The Hermit indicates a need or desire to withdraw from the world. He is a wise old man who has learned much about himself and his world through deep introspection and meditation. Your soul may be craving a retreat in order to replenish and restore. By taking space and solitude now, you will be ready to engage with and guide others when they most need you later on. The answers you seek will be found within you, not in any book or on any website. You might also benefit from seeking the guidance of a wise counselor or mentor.
