Fucking awful news..... but this email went out to the Rune Soup Membership today.....
"I write to share the heartbreaking news that Gordon has passed away.
Gordon left this world while travelling in Peru - following his life's passion - learning and experiencing traditional magic and shamanic practice so he could continue to teach and help others successfully navigate life.
Rune Soup - and you, the community - were Gordon's proudest achievement. I know many of you will feel his loss greatly. I encourage you to find each other, and your family and friends to help process his loss. I've set up https://832c8ff7.click.kit-mail3.com/4zukzrx29lcehpek87mcxh6962pmei5h6mwdr/7qh7h8h95ede9mcz/aHR0cHM6Ly9taWdodHkucnVuZXNvdXAuY29tL3NwYWNlcy8yMzc2OTkzOC9jaGF0&source=gmail&ust=1778753829926000&usg=AOvVaw0_rk-NdZUJIP1Q5RVECmn X">a space on mighty so you may share your thoughts on Gordon if you want.
At this stage, I cannot say what direction Rune Soup will take. Right now, my heart is broken and I am spending time with the rest of Gordon's family to grieve.
I will share more when I can.
James"
Gordon devoted himself warning about this time period in particular and provide survival strategies, but checked out just before the chaos really explodes. It's almost impossible to fathom.... but there it is.....
My consollation is that in the past week where he went silent, I cast a horary chart about whether he would be alright or not... and the chart was sublimely beautiful..... he's on the better side of the veil now, and we're stuck here to reckon with what comes next....
So sad - I very much enjoyed his para-politics as well as his re-enchantment of the world - he will be missed. We will raise a toast at this Saturday’s meetup!
@maryruthdana I wish I could be there.... he's more powerful than ever now.. believe.. would love to toast with you all...
I just received the same email. I happened to be listening to an old episode of his on my iPod when I skimmed my mailbox. I normally leave his emails to when I've got time to process them, but today felt drawn to open it. I'm absolutely gutted. My love and best wishes go to James and the family.
Thank you Gordon. Love you, man 🙏♥
Gordon was how I discovered THC! I'm shocked by the news and in disbelief that he won't be here physically for WWIII!
@tinafrissora Same.
Even though I never met him IRL (and stuck to the shadows), his influence on me was profound. I feel like I lost a relative and a close friend.
@tinafrissora I know... he spent so much time preparing everyone for this... and then peaced out. I have to say, it truly feels like Obi Wan kenobi bowing his head, and becoming more powerful than you can ever imagine.
I came to the forum to offer Greg my sympathies for the loss of his friend. Send you comfort and love, Greg!
