Hellacious (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781916529465)

Hellacious is a journey of descent by the inner Quean archetype into our creative and spiritual centre to meet what has been forcibly buried by the repressions of our hierarchical civilisations of the last 5,000 years. Avoiding cultural manipulation and any religious appropriation of her spiritual fire she comes up against all her responses and their consequences in her own psyche. Shedding identity and false refuge the further she travels down and around her inner Spiral, she reveals her empathic vulnerability, which does not always look like it seems it should. What might be called negative by this polarised reality we perceive life to be; turns out to be her strength. Can she meet this transformation in full evolving consciousness? Or will the overwhelming power of ever accumulating conditioning, pressure and projection, the Patronic archetype, drown her for good?

"This is a masterful work of art and spiritual invitation. Channelled from deep dimensions of source energy, the text and illustrations are alive with liberating potential, 'working on us' at embodied levels to dissolve binds and exhume our true, infinite and collective selves, through extraordinary play on language and archetypes. Hellacious is an explosive yet heart-grounded contribution to the dismantling of patriarchal systems of oppression - so don't be surprised if you start to feel more free, real, earthed, fired up, connected, ancient, and whole, simply by reading it! Dainei created this book over many years; it will last for far longer and initiate important changes simply by existing, and by our daring to engage with it to the same degrees of courage and deft readiness as the author's." - Mary Hartley Platt PhD (Oxf), Reiki Guide & Meditation Teacher

About the Author: "I am a free spirit who has experienced all the punishing demands of our society and consequent mindsets as a kind of imprisonment. I have found most of it distressing. I don't see this as a negative though, because it stimulates a strength that has protected me from exhaustion, depression and learned helplessness. This is why I encourage and support others to liberate themselves from being lost in societal conditioning, by being aware of what that might look like for us as individuals. I am an artist of the human condition, and I refuse to impose systems. I will instead call on creativity and inspiration and support alternative potentials. Yes, I want to change the world.
