Dark Romance: Part 1

My absolute favorite time period is the Dark Romance times ranging from (some say) 1770's until the 1840's.

The way these scholars and artists beautifully applied language and creativity to art and literature created some of the most disturbingly wonderful works known today. "The tales and poems commonly feature outcasts from society, personal torment and uncertainty as to whether the nature of man will bring him salvation or destruction." "The Dark Romantics adapted images of anthropomorphized evil in the form of Satan, devils, ghosts, werewolves, vampires, and ghouls."

About Me

I want to share with others who have the same passion as I do for soul searching and spiritual enlightenment to continue their journey with me.

When I read something that confirms the ideas and perspectives an incredibly powerful feeling brings me closer spiritual connectivity from the universe. I connect deeply with a few time periods that have similar ideological concepts or aesthetics that I desperately try and explore further as if I'm searching for information I left behind some time ago, such as:

 The Dark Ages (300-900)
The Viking Age (793-1066)
Romantic (1770-1850)

 I will have a large focus on these periods and the works that came from them; and modern work as well, of course.

 I take pleasure from experiencing spiritual phenomenon as well as exploring spirit through many different mediums such as literature, art, etc, as so many have before me. I want to pass on and promote those feelings in order to provide others with a route for further self exploration and creativity. I believe I have been repeatedly put on this earth in order to touch people's souls in any way that would make the world a little happier, a little more connected and hopefully less ignorant. So in this lifetime where there is an abundance of expansive technology, this is an opportunity I would be remiss to pass up.

This blog is by no means a documentation of superiority or anything of that nature, I encourage anyone to contribute their knowledge, experiences, art, etc. as a way to lift all of our spiritual energies to a higher plane of consciousness.

Thank you!

and remember:   It's a beautiful life, learn all you can while you are here!
