THE 9 GATES
Step forward, seeker of tones.The nine gates stand before you, each a threshold of resonance held and guided by the gates keepers .Sxantana and Paloma will take you on a psychedelic & experimental trip through the different layers of self through Hypnosis and Psychomagic acts accompanied by the sounds of electric guitar/Gongs & electronic live music .
- Release – what you set down.
- Truth – what can no longer hide.
- Shadow – what waits in the dark.
- Breath – what holds you here.
- Stillness – the pause between worlds.
- Memory – echoes that remember you.
- Dream – visions that move through you.
- Renewal – the rise after burning.
- Self – the return, both altered and whole.The gates does not open outward, nor inward. It opens nowhere, everywhere.You are the chord, the strike, the silence, the gate.The experiment is not outside you.It is you.
