  • The Gremlin: Transforming the Past's Failures 161 the Eagle Squadron, a Noted "Gremlinologist," Who Had Heard Many Such Tales and Was Beginning to Collect Them
    The Gremlin: Transfor111ing the Past's Failures BRUCE A. ROSENBERG A MERICAN MOTORS CORPORATION entered the sub-compact field in 1970 with a sturdy little car it named the Gremlin. Its rear door-window (the hatch-back) descends so abruptly from the vehicle's roof that it gives it the appearance of having been cut off before it finished growing (or perhaps the way that Sir Yvain's horse was cut off at the hind quarter by the falling portcullis at the castle of Esclados the Red). The company it- self exploits the car's looks in television commercials which depict a snide and burly service-station attendant asking a pretty young driver about the "rest" of her car. But the ad concludes with the important message that though the car might have unorthodox looks it is economical to drive: the girl smugly and tauntingly hands her torrnentor a dollar bill for gas. What is most incongruous in all this, particularly for those people with clear memories of World War II, is the very name of the car, Gremlin. Historically this is the least likely name for a machine imaginable. But apparently not for the general public, and presumably not for the staff at American Motors which named the car several years ago. The company must have assumed, or conducted extensive field research which demonstrated, that car buyers would think of pixies, sprites, or other varieties of the "wee folk" when they heard the name Gremlin. The name conjures up an image of a small, compact creature (verymuch like the car), who is harmless, playful, and whimsical, perhaps something like the Celtic elf who sells the breakfast cereal, "Lucky Charms." When they first became known to Americans in 1942 (Gremlins had already made the acquaintance of the R.A.F.), they were the subject of several articles in leading magazines, and their diminutive stature was usually featured.

  • Dragonlore Issue 14 09-12-2001
    An A to Z of Dragonlore—Supplement (continued) GLAISTIG, basically a female Urisk, from the Scottish Highlands. GUIVRE, a toxic horned serpent that infested mediaeval France, it was extremely bashful and would flee from the sight of a naked male figure, a weakness that, once discovered, led to its total expulsion by bold young men. HEMICYNES, dog-headed humanoids from the Black Sea shores according to Dragonlore the Greeks. HYBRIDS, new monsters are still appearing in stories and in heraldry, that The Journal of The College of Dracology combine features from two or more animals but often do not have a specific name of their own. Examples are a fish with bird’s wings and a lion with peacock’s tail from Switzerland, a salmon with antlers and a wolf-headed raven from Number 14 St Andrew’s Day 1997 Scandinavia, and the supporters of the arms of the Canadian Heraldic Authority with upper half of a red raven and lower half of a polar bear. ICE-MAIDEN, perhaps a frozen mermaid. JACKALOPE, a hare or jack-rabbit with antlers, first noted in Germany but later a popular diversion in North America and much favoured by pranksters. KITCHI-AT’HUSIS, a forty foot long water serpent with antlers and venomous fangs that once lived in the waters of Boyden Lake in Maine, North America, but was beaten and eaten by a Weewilmekq; it was possibly a protean shaman.

  • Re-Envisaging Masculinity: the Struggle to Be Or Become A
    Re-Envisaging Masculinity: The Struggle to Be or Become a Man Some myths about masculine transformation, using the legends of ‘Parsifal’, ‘Iron John’ and ‘Prince Lindworm’ COURTENAY YOUNG Abstract There are a multitude of historical myths that Joseph Campbell (1969) called “roadmaps” to masculine development: many are out of date or (now) culturally inappropriate; most are ignored; and much has been forgotten. The Jungian analyst, Robert Johnson re-examined the Arthurian myth of Parsifal in his book, He: Understanding Masculine Psychology; additionally, the American poet and promoter of the ‘Wild Man’ movement, Robert Bly, uses the Brothers Grimm’s fairy tale of Iron John (Iron Hans) in his ‘lexiconography’; and there is also a dark and ancient Scandinavian fairytale called, Prince Lindworm, that speaks about the redemption of a ‘monstrous’ prince through the persistence against all odds and in the face of great fear, of a naïve and innocent girl. All these three myths or legends talk about the transformation of a ‘boy’ (or a potential monster) into a ‘man’. As with all old myths and fairy tales, there are numerous and varied versions – with different emphases – yet all with incredibly richness: however, they all have a common theme: possibly an unconscious one – the ‘struggle’ or ‘transformation’ that a boy has to go through to become a man. But this is not about the physical process of puberty; nor is it about a “rite of passage”; or even a social-cultural initiation; it is about a psycho-spiritual transformation that can happen at any time and that can be quite upsetting and provoking.

A Collection of Sacred Magick | The Esoteric Library | www.sacred-magick.com Evocation can be defined as the calling forth of an entity from another plane of existence to an external manifestation in either the astral or physical plane. INTRODUCTION magician felt a surge of excitement run through him as he icked up the leather-bound book. He carefully opened the old diary to the section marked "Conjuration," and began to read by the red light of the filtered lamp on the altar. When the oration was completed, the magician glanced at the painted wooden triangle he had positioned outside the magic circle. Toward the cen- ter of the equilateral triangle, smokerose from a brass censer in a steady stream, filling the entire room with the scent of peppermint. Scattered about this glowing bowl were pieces of iron, garnet, and red jasper; to the right of the censer stood a metal figurine of a scorpion that cast moving shadows on the floor as the glow of the coals illuminated it. Slowly, the magician's gaze fixed upon the small object at the base of the triangle. The red light in the room, combined with the faint glow of the censer, clearly showed the symbol drawn on the round piece of paper. It was this sigil that the magician began to focus on as he closed his eyes. In a few moments, the magician held up his wand and slowly started opening his eyes. The name "Phalegh," which he had been repeating mentally, A Collection of Sacred Magick | The Esoteric Library | www.sacred-magick.com escaped his lips as a whisper, and he continued calling the Mars spirit out loud.
