The official wizzard of Christchurch New-Seeland
The Wizard and his apprentice Ari Freeman in central Christchurch, New Zealand, on June 2, 2020.
Since 1998 the city has had an official wizard and being paid by the local government. Born in the United Kingdom, Ian Brackenbury Channell settled in New Zealand in the 1970s, where he became known as The Wizard. As if to reinforce how serious he is, he even held a New Zealand driver's license issued to The Wizard, although he says he hasn't officially changed his name.
As he sees it, his role is to be a kind of provocateur -- someone who brings a sense of fun to the world, but also criticizes the system. A showman, who doesn't mind making a fool of himself.

Wat anderen ‘hun vakantie’ noemen is voor de opruimers een opgave om de natuur te ontzien.

gedenk vandaag de onbeschermde indigene stammen
International Day of the World's Indigenous Peoples - 9th August |
 |
We shall be celebrating this Sunday by sharing a beautiful short film from Stop Ecocide supporter Kelly Roberts, From Harm to Harmony - the missing law to protect people and planet. It features indigenous resistance to toxic exploitation and deforestation in the Amazon, and highlights the need for ecocide law to protect the forest for the sake of all of us. In the words of the film-maker: "This film is a prayer for us all to take responsibility and to stand up for what we believe in." Voices include Patricia Gualinga (Sarayaku people), Oswando Nenquimo (Waorani people), Clare Dubois (Treesisters) and David Dene (UN Earth jurist). The film was created in direct response to Polly Higgins’ call: ‘Dare to be Great’. It was originally premiered in The Hague last December and is dedicated to Polly’s memory. Feel free to share widely! JOIN US (12pm Sunday 9th August GMT+1 and ongoing): |

being elemental
The notion of hierarchy present in our everyday lives was given to us by Cosmic Intelligence, which set up a hierarchy not only in the universe, but also in our earthly bodies. Human beings have a skeletal structure that corresponds to the mineral world and provides the body’s material support. Muscles are attached to our bones just as vegetation clings to the earth. Our circulatory system, with its blood vessels and capillaries, corresponds to rivers, streams and lakes, for water is the blood of the earth, which nourishes all vegetation. Our respiratory system corresponds to air, and finally, our nervous system corresponds to the sun on which everything depends. In fact it is not the bones which are the controlling factor, but the nervous system, which is the most finely developed, the most subtle and the most highly evolved. Why have we not drawn a philosophical conclusion from this observation? Why has science misled humanity in giving priority to matter instead of to the spirit? |
