During this dark-soul-cavern that is January 2021, we are grateful to administer a hearty dose of musik-medicina, to take you on a hero's journey from darkness into light:  uncovering gems, hidden strengths & purpose that can ONLY be found by going into the DEPTHS...

Thank you connoisseur-of-sound https://soundcloud.com/mikalaton for BLESSING us with Lucid's 6th Portal-Cast tapestry 💎  "Playground of Initiation" 💎 

Here is Mikal's inspiration for creating this deep masterpiece for us all:

"We live in the direct stream of challenging times. 

Apart from pandemics, I see many problems for humankind and our connection to Mother Earth, so we have to multi-manage living with crises and transformation:   on a global, social and personal level. But we are not helpless victims.  We have the power to change.  I don’t belief in beliefs. I trust in experience, learning, thinking, intuition & love.

To tap into healing, it might be necessary to face our own dark and blind spots:  our shadows hiding in our subconsciousness, our traumas and addictions. It helps to see them for what they are, and how we relate to them. Hopefully we can find the power to integrate or transform them; to become more whole, attentive and joyful.. 

In this sense I created a soundscape for a shamanic-initiation-journey:  giving birth to the idea of a vision quest and personal transformation.  

Feel free to Imagine yourself to be protagonist.
Starting point of the story is our situation with our planet, our dear home.  Once on the shamanic way, the adept connects with nature and finds allies in supporting animal spirits. Following down the rabbit hole, traveling deeper into darker realms of the personality and the psyche.  Developing along basic questions of existence--as well as through missions & adventures--you find out more about your purpose in life.

And you move on in your own sacred dance. In the middle of the set you find a crucial point in facing death:  dissolving and getting stripped down to the bones and having them scattered all over. — After getting set together through allied-cosmic & ancestral forces, you come back to life with deeper knowledge about the ways of the soul circling the wheel of existence. 

Performing healing rituals and finding the trust to dive down into the otherworld to do service for your kinship, you walk the path of nature into the sacred forest.  With confidence and respect for all creation, seeing oneness and light, developing love and generosity, you're awakening to states of unison and bliss. Now the bigger picture of planetary healing and the preservation of life is coming back into focus. The way gets joyful and lightens up even more by meeting good old friends from the beginning for a chat :)

💎And so is the Kosmic Playgrond of Initiation...

Instead of providing a track list here, I like to keep it more lively in a more communicative form. So if u like to know the ID of a track just ask in the comments and be assured, I will give u very soon an answer there."

💎Thank you Mikal for this succulent dive into the DEEEEEEP heart of the underground, of the soul-hero's journey...Follow Mikal here:
