Bye Bye Blackbird

Gon: “assume it: we all have a dark side which always want to fly high. like a vulture. a crow. the ancient rituals and specially rites in all the cultures of the world recreated somehow the dark flights of these black birds with special meanings. some as exorcism. some others as calling or preys. pagan or religious, human or spiritual. black birds flights always had impose some human fascination. symbol of death for many cultures because their behaviour. dreaming with crows use to symbolise that death is coming. a vulture’s flight over death fields is an intense mix of beauty and of fear. if exorcism, we want that black bird will fly away, and this is most used in rites: “bye bye black bird”, let it go, free your own, dare your own. with respect.
“bye bye black bird” is a title suggested by our dear 8oink’s member Annie.

let’s fly, bye bye black bird. here you may post your own interpretations of the black birds rites in another 8oink’s collaboration. let’s be pagan. let’s free our own black bird. let’s do this rite all together. now join your own wings… in the name of death!”

    This is a wonderfully dark, yet sensual/emotive project. I will think about how I can contribute.
