Cristal Scull  
`Crystal Skulls’ – from an original article that appeared in Rainbow News in 1998

In 1995 the lives of British couple Chris Morton and Ceri Louise Thomas turned upside down.
They set off for a holiday, just after Christmas that year, little realising how much change was in store for them.

Their destination was Central America and specifically the ancient Mayan ruins of Tikal in Guatemala.
Trekking through the jungle with their guide, they first heard the story that would soon become
 entangled through the fabric of their own lives.

The legend their guide told them was of mythical crystal skulls that the Mayan believed could `sing’ or
 `talk’ and were supposed to contain important information concerning the destiny of humankind.
The couple barely gave the legend a second though as they continued on their travels.

Then, just a few days later, whilst they were in a bar in Belize, a country neighbouring Guatemala,
 talk turned to buried treasure and, to Chris and Ceri’s absolute amazement, the barman proceeded
 to tell them how a crystal skull had been found in the lost city of Lubaantun – a Mayan name meaning
`the City of Fallen Stones’ which lay deep in the jungles of Belize.

The couple were stunned. The legend was in fact real! As documentary makers, they were instantly
struck with the sensational nature of a story deserving to be told.

Over the next year the couple researched the story, working to win a broadcaster to agree to fund
and screen the program.

They learned that according to an old Native American legend there were thirteen ancient crystal
 skulls with moveable jaws. They were said to contain information important not only for the future
 of the planet, but critical to the survival of the human race.

Black Madonna,  San Francisco Santeria Bodega 2006, Jordan Stratford

The Black Madonna is Dark and calls us to the darkness. Darkness is something we need to get used to again—the
 “Enlightenment” has deceived us into being afraid of the dark and distant from it. Light switches are illusory.
 They feed the notion that we can “master nature” (Descartes’ false promise) and overcome all darkness with a
flick of our finger.

Meister Eckhart observes that “the ground of the soul is dark.” Thus to avoid the darkness is to live
superficially, cut off from one’s ground, one’s depth. The Black Madonna invites us into the dark and therefore
into our depths. This is what the mystics call the “inside” of things, the essence of things. This is where
Divinity lies. It is where the true self lies. It is where illusions are broken apart and the truth lies. Andrew
 Harvey puts it this way: “The Black Madonna is the transcendent Kali-Mother, the black womb of light out of which
 all of the worlds are always arising and into which they fall, the presence behind all things, the darkness of
love and the loving unknowing into which the child of the Mother goes when his or her illumination is perfect.”

She calls us to that darkness which is mystery itself. She encourages us to be at home there, in the presence of
 deep, black, unsolveable mystery. She is, in Harvey’s words, “the blackness of divine mystery, that mystery
celebrated by the great Aphophatic mystics, such as Dionysisus Areopagite, who see the divine as forever unknowable,
 mysterious, beyond all our concepts, hidden from all our senses in a light so dazzling it registers on them as
darkness.” Eckhart calls God’s darkness a “superessential darkness, a mystery behind mystery, a mystery within
 mystery that no light has penetrated.”

Jay-Z is boycotting Cristal champagne - because he believes the company’s managing director had racist comments.
The director of Cristal, Frederic Rouzaud, when asked if he felt Cristal being a symbol of a flashy lifestyle was
 detrimental to the brand said: “That’s a good question, but what can we do? We can’t forbid people from buying it.
 I’m sure Dom Perignon or Krug would be delighted to have their business.

Jay-Z took this to mean he was against black people and in a statement to the Associated Press responded:
“It has come to my attention that the managing director of Cristal, Frederic Rouzaud, views the ‘hip-hop’
 culture as ‘unwelcome attention’. I view his comments as racist and will no longer support any of his
products through any of my various brands including the 40/40 Club nor in my personal life.”
I think this is being just a little bit ridiculous - I don’t see any relation to racism. Perhaps Cristal
(who charge $200 a bottle) need to rethink their marketing strategy, and their target market - instead of
 offending their consumers.
