The Penguin Debacle -

Ok so I don't know if you know (you may not know) but I hate penguins. I've written about this previously (look here). Now a few odd things have happenned lately, and it comes off as some sort of cosmic joke. So for a bit of background.. people get really upset when I say I don't like penguins, as if there's something wrong with having an opinion on these animals. Personally I think they're lame and should have given up their boring existance a long time ago, many a long argument have risen from these views when expressed in public. Ha, ok thats it, funny joke, Pablo doesn't like Penguins, the end. But no, it seems the universe wants to have a say in this too.

I got some DMT from my friend in Tasmania, DMT is meant to be the 'spirit drug' it affects your pineal gland and is the active chemical in Ayuhasca. I decided to share it with my housemate Stewart, prior to taking it Stewart joked 'Hey what if you take it and you find out your spirit guide is a Penguin' 'Ha!' we laughed 'As if!', and took the drug.

It was amazing, within 5 seconds of inhaling my room became an ancient sacred cave and all the pictures on my wall became saturated geometrical patterns with ancient wise faces serenely looking at me with wisdom and patience. It started to flow and glow and as I sat there transfixed I couldn't help but smile, avoiding Stewarts eye contact (it's not a social drug).

I looked around and saw the picture of a Penguing on my wall that my friend Caroline tricked me into putting up one day (I drew a big X on it to be sure). Well here's this penguin STARING at me. Glowing gold making intense eye contact with me. I managed to blurt out 'HOLY SHIT! IT IS A PENGUIN!' before tripping some more and then euphorically coming back to reality to laugh about it with Stew. The trip lasted about 20 mins and I am sure we scratched only the surface of the experience. The point is tho, the penguin was there, staring at me. The weirdo.

Three days later after an amazing weekend with a friends and couch surfers I went for a walk along the streets of Brunswick. It's hard rubbish currently, so the front of every second house has piles of junk and artifacts, boxes full of trash and goodies which everyone can go through and take home a cupboard or chair or whatever. I found an ancient radio with built in record player this way. However on my way home I found a giant inflatable penguin! As soon as I looked at it a very cute girl appeared from nowhere and said to me 'Take it! I would'.

I knew this was too much coincidence to ignore. I had no choice. I took the giant penguin home and inflated it. Now he's in my house. 

What else can I say but the penguin is a creep. He stares at me and I don't like it. He's also very big. Not only that but he beats me up. I left my camera on in my room to catalogue this behavior.



As you can see he's a jerk. He's making me his bitch and there's no getting rid of him, it's cosmic.

So im thinking, holy shit.. what if my spirit guide is a Penguin.. and what if he hates me.. or maybe he's right in my face because he needs to be..

This reminded me of something.. my first ever acid trip, I didn't know I was on acid at the time, i'd been drunk also. At one point in the night I flipped out and punched my awesome friend Simo on the head. It was awful.

However the thing that started it all was Pingu! That ABC show of that hyperactive penguin screaming gibberish at everyone. That was on the television the moment I lost my shit. Pingu was ON THE SCREEN. there were rainbows shooting out its mouth. I thought i was crazy! I punched Simo!

Holy shit the penguin was there from the start! I even wrote about it on my blog! Look Here .

WTF.

I did some research on spirit guides and penguins, this is what I uncovered.

'Those who have Penguin as a guide are encouraged to become more polite
and attentive to how the social structure around them is holding together. Perhaps you are being called to pay honor to your mate or to your
friends. Perhaps you need to appease someone where you have been harsh
with your words or actions.

Penguin also moves in straight lines when they are gathered in groups and moves with orderliness and a sense of purpose. They are determined and focused. If you lack determination and focus, ask Penguin to assist you in strengthening these areas.'

Determination and Focus! My mortal enemies!! Also I've been feeling like I've been letting my friends down and not giving them enough attention. SHIT. Now it's IN MY FACE, In my HOUSE and beating me up. OK I GET IT GET IT GET IT. But I really don't want to.

At least it's not all bad.

'Pay attention to Penguins color. Black and white, ying and yang, magic and mystery! The whiteness of the Penguin represents the awakening spirit and the light of all that is - as does the whiteness where it resides. The black represents the unknown, the density, and the different dimensions. The balance in Penguins color shows you how to balance and merge the darkness and the light, and to move between worlds as the Penguin moves between the sea and the land - two different worlds. Feel honored that Penguin is your guide for your journey of magic and mystery is moving in a new direction.'

We'll see about that.. PENGUIN.
