I hope Cthulhu awakens. And soon.
There seems to be concern of slavery if Cthulhu awakes. Although I already see we live as slaves under the tyranny of humans. We live in hive societies where we celebrate our supposed higher consciousness as that above animals, but in the end treat one another as only animals do. Humanity is the epitome of self-aggrandizing decietfulness.
May the limitless layers of putrid human corruption be cleansed from the Earth by the salty, purifying waters of Cthulhu's baptismal awakening.
I, personally, like what Lovecraft said would happen when Cthulhu awakes and destroys the authority of Man.
"the secret priests would take great Cthulhu from His tomb to revive His subjects and resume His rule of earth....Then mankind would have become as the Great Old Ones; free and wild and beyond good and evil, with laws and morals thrown aside and all men shouting and killing and revelling in joy. Then the liberated Old Ones would teach them new ways to shout and kill and revel and enjoy themselves, and all the earth would flame with a holocaust of ecstasy and freedom."
IA, folks. ;D

yes. it's right there in HPL's magnum opus. the Old Ones aren't there to slay all humanity, use us as rag dolls, or just plain ignore us because our species isn't worth the effort. thanks for reminding us this penultimate quote, Melusine.

Your welcome, anytime. That quote is one of my favorites. Anarchic freedom, hedonistic barbarianism, telepathic Aliens taking over the world and ripping the shroud off of our cultural identities so we can revel in what we really are - what's there not to like? ;D

Let me take a wild guess....Mmhh, how about your fucking life? Meaningless, I know, being a clay puppet and all, willing to sacrifice your worthless life next to that of the equally clueless high priest...somehow it seems like such a waste.
But then I am often mistaken.

Have you read any H.P. Lovecraft?
EDIT:
or better yet, have you not heard the call?

Yes, I read Lovecraft and no, haven't heard The Call. The GOO are so alien, it's very unlikely that humans would survive. I got carried away yesterday, sometimes it's better to simply walk away. I'll stick to reading the forum!

let me assure you our lives are not in danger. yours, however, is still up for debate. honoring the Gods who allowed you to evolve from apes is not being a puppet nor a sacrifice.
just curious, why are you even here? what is your agenda?

Meaningless, I know, being a clay puppet and all, willing to sacrifice your worthless life next to that of the equally clueless high priest...somehow it seems like such a waste. But then I am often mistaken. I don't suffer the same neurotic self-loathing most other people do, and the fact that you appear to be attempting to use that against me makes me wonder if you yourself aren't suffering from that grotesque affliction of the psyche. I shall TRY to explain in more detail. Hopefully this won't be much of a challenge - I hate repeating myself. Unlike the unwashed masses, I don't like being under the dominion of self-deceitful humans, or a slave to a culture that does nothing but promote the putrid hypocrisy and self-loathing so prevalent amongst Earth's most cognitively advanced primates. Cthulhu would destroy all of that stupidity, and frankly, I'd rather be under the influence of an alien intelligence that is far more evolved and objective than any human (no matter how highly they think of themselves) could ever achieve. I am disappointed MOST people actually like being domesticated little workers for the System built by humans. Scurrying back and forth to work like happy little servants, their joys being eating at McDonalds before shopping at Wal*Mart. Oh wow that's great isn't it? If you "work" hard or fast enough for the economic betterment of people other than yourself, you might be able to enjoy other comforts, doled out sparingly by the the ones in economic power of course. They don't want you to be TOO rewarded, no, that's the fun of it. Keeping just a little out of our reach for us to "work" a little harder for as well. Yet people LIKE it. They can't live without it. Most people have been so out of touch with their own inner nature, they don't know and can't even define a personal identity outside the System and someone else's control or expectations of them. They FEAR the idea of being someone different or even self-defined. They put so much stock into what the rest of the herd thinks, they'd rather blend in with everyone else rather than take the ADULT risk of being true to oneself. That therein is the reason their Will dies - they sell, trade, and give away the only thing the System can't get without being offered up freely in the first place. That's why people (and, by your own admission, you as well) are afraid of death or possession when it comes to Cthulhu. They lack that strong, self definition of Will that would ensure their psychic survival when Cthulhu comes to the surface to cleanse the Earth of the overpopulated, infantile and ignorant masses. Being possessed and used as a puppet is not unreasonable - why should a far more evolved being respect their autonomy when they didn't show any before? It's only logical if they are under control by other people now, Cthulhu would simply take over management when Earth's leaders clean out their desks. Such is an equal and opposite reaction the Universe will give them when they sold their organic "I" in favor of ideals that were built on lies. Ask yourself this - are YOU acting like a clay puppet right now? Coming here, perhaps inadvertantly questioning another person's worth as a human being for not thinking the same way everyone else does? Can you be sure you aren't merely another example of our self-policing society, where "anyone can be an agent"? Do you get a pat on the back for at least TRYING to punish someone for for having a different interpretation and seeing value in something haphazardly labeled "dark" by the rest of society? Well, if so, have fun rewarding yourself with a warm fuzzy feeling in your tummy and eating at Mickie D's and buying cheap towels at Wal*Mart. I hope that isn't the case, but hey, I'll never know. EDIT - I don't mean to sound harsh, but this is about as tactful as I can be without sugar coating everything and being insulting to anyone's intelligence.

Yeah that can happen. If you hadnt read Lovecraft, i would had dropped a link to the audio book version of "The Call of Cthulhu". The call of the dread one sings like a siren through the dreamlands. His dream is ours. In my opinion, life and death will be of no matter when the old dreamer awakens.
But besides from that you dont need to believe anything to be here. As long as you dont bug people about what they are figuring out.
And to melusine, That there is just a great post. Ã really enjoyed it, i agree.

The end of the world is an ongoing process, which has been going on for some time now. I'm not exactly sure about the forms Cthulhu (or whatever name you use for the concept) can and will take, but I think mankind has been revelling, shouting and killing in new and evil ways well for the past hundred years or so. Not to mention the record levels of mental disturbances in human beings. It's probably going to escalate even further, growing exponentially. Isn't this one way Cthulhu can manifest upon this world?
Any Asatruar Cultists here? Does Cthulhu represent to you the Aesir or the Giants or something completely different? Maybe the Awakening of Cthulhu is somehow related to Ragnarok.

Yeah. CThulhu awakining coming soon (from 18,000,000 years) Don't be such a negative nancy. lol with all due respect, in his fair defense - this forum preaches death and destruction to mankind whilst calling the majority for retards who would deserve slavery.. So negative nancy I would be careful to toss out through a glassframed housing.... Quickly in order to rectify my demeaning of the forums I must verily say that I truely do understand where you're coming from regarding said emotions and attitudes.. I personally just have more faith remaining than that.. -but yea he did bring it on himself a bit now to read the rest of the thread...

On the note of Cthulu awakening I'd say he's getting one leg out of bed as we speak ^^ and before you goto question my agenda here I can say that I'm not out to destroy your coc society, but I will raise reasonable questions and make reasonable arguements both pro and anti - of course without harassing or intended redicule or anything.. civil disussion ftw

Yeah, i dont know who came up with that number or how.
H.P Lovecraft said (in his "Call of Cthulhu" story) that;
That is not dead which can eternal lie, and with strange eons even death may die

hey first post. ive given some thought to this over the years from the perspective of several paradigms. my cobbled together understanding of such an "awakening" of cthulhu is as follows.
the human evolution of consciousness throught history is really a spiral and the wheel of life is a circular model of architypal energies / agreggates of experience that the spiral repeatedly passes through. Humanity (or at least a few of us like leary's futant idea) is moving up through the spiral and each time we make the circle we pass through those architypal energies/agregates of experience. each time with the evolutionarily gained lessons and wisdom / experience points gained from the last pass around. the wheel can be viewed through the lense of astrological progression, golden dawn style progression of the aeons (isis,osiris ect) native american animal totems, varias cultural or religious lenses ect. each time the circle is made up the gradient of spiral, different aspects of this wheel are experienced with new wisdom/ect that changes the experience from the one of the lower rung of the spiral. cthulhu in my experience is absu of the summerian tradition. the male counterpart to tiamet.
666 is the next step in the evolution of human consciousness. the beast man the liberated. shouting and killing in glee. so marduk hath slain the great tiamat in two. so long ago. he fashioned the earth mother/ sky father duality that campbell speaks of in his works on world religions. thus dualism was the structure of our reality. this dualism kia seeks to defy. the next stage on the spiral is isis or the mother again. this time hopefully absu the consort, also of this section of the wheel will be awakened by the cthulhu cult or some chaote somewhere, and the mental apocalypse that is symbolized as physical apocalypse by the religious will occur. thereby dissolving dualistic reality by joining the earth mother /sky father as one. piecing back together the dragon tiamet. in wich case we become as one on the scales of its serpentine back. we become bestial in nature having our "holy guardian angels" become our true selves. asar un nefer. the unification of consciousness and subconsciousness mind. the joining of male and female, up and down or red and green dragon of alchemy. we are of the blood of the ancient ones with the light bodys of the elder gods. what happens to us is going to be very interesting.
or not.
great forum guys ill be poking around.
