Hey there, fellow seekers and rebels...
So, you've noticed it too, huh?
The endless tug of war in politics—the left vs. the right... It's exhausting and frankly, it's dead in the water. That’s why "Political Heretic" isn’t just a tee—it’s our banner for a new way of thinking... a new chapter. We are at the crux of a political renaissance, and this two-party system is begging for something new to emerge.
Let's break down ‘heretic’ for a moment. Originally from the Greek ‘hairetikos’, it means ‘able to choose’. In religious contexts, a heretic is someone who chooses beliefs outside the established doctrine. And isn’t that exactly what we need in our politics today? Both parties, locked into their own dogmas, have stopped listening, stopped adapting. It’s time for us to choose differently... to be heretics in a system that needs fresh ideas, not old divisions.
This call is not just a challenge; it's an invitation. Those of us who see the limitations of our current political framework are like doulas, called to help birth a third space that can hold the tension of opposites. This "tension of opposites" refers to the dynamic and often conflicting interplay between differing beliefs, values, or forces. It's about navigating these contrasts to find a harmonious middle ground—a place where innovative solutions emerge from the friction of diversity, not from suppressing it.
This third space is where "indigenous consciousness" resides—a consciousness that centers the natural world, living in harmony with nature’s laws, as 'as above, so below'. It's akin to "witchy ways," which refer to practices and beliefs often associated with witchcraft and modern pagan traditions. These include a deep reverence for nature, the use of rituals and spells, and a belief in the interconnectedness of all things. In this context, "witchy ways" embody a holistic approach to living, where actions are in tune with the natural world, the cycles of the earth, and the energies of the universe.
This shirt... it’s for the critical thinkers, philosophers, the dreamers, the brave souls who dare to step outside the political mainstream. It’s for us—the witchy, the wild, the free thinkers. When you wear "Political Heretic," you’re not just wearing a piece of fabric... you’re igniting conversations, you’re challenging the status quo... you’re advocating for a future that honors nature and true freedom of choice, guided by the timeless wisdom of indigenous consciousness and enriched by the holistic practices of witchy ways.
So, what do you say? Ready to wear your heart on your tee? Let’s shake things up... let’s talk, let’s rethink, let’s live true to nature. Join us... wear it proud, start those conversations... be the political heretic the world needs right now.

The Manifesto of the Political Heretic
​
Preamble: In the spirit of transcendence and transformation, we, the Political Heretics, invoke the ancient wisdom of the Hermetic principles to guide our journey towards a new political and spiritual ethos. As seekers of truth and pioneers of change, we commit to these guiding values and principles to reshape our world.
​
1. Innovative Reform: Principle of Correspondence & Principle of Vibration We believe in the dynamic interplay between all levels of existence—what happens on one plane reflects across all. We advocate for a ceaseless evolution in our political systems, understanding that change is not just necessary; it is the essence of life itself. Our actions above influence our realities below, driving reform that resonates through every layer of society.
​
2. Empowerment Through Choice: Principle of Mentalism Our minds are the architects of our reality. We champion intellectual and spiritual freedom, empowering individuals to choose and craft their paths. In the realm of thought, we find the seeds of action—each decision a ripple in the universe’s vast pond.
​
3. Harmonious Balance: Principle of Polarity & Principle of Rhythm We recognize the dual nature of existence and the essential balance this duality presents. By embracing the rhythm of life’s cycles, we seek to harmonize the apparent opposites, finding equilibrium in the midst of conflict and diversity.
​
4. Environmental Stewardship: Principle of Correspondence As stewards of the Earth, we act with the profound understanding that our environment reflects our inner state. We commit to a symbiotic relationship with nature, advocating for practices that honor and sustain the world around us.
​
5. Spiritual and Cultural Reverence: Principle of Correspondence We respect and honor the deep connections between the spiritual and the material. Our reverence for diverse cultural and spiritual practices strengthens our collective consciousness, enriching our community with a tapestry of shared wisdom.
​
6. Communal Dialogue: Principle of Gender & Principle of Mentalism Dialogue is the cornerstone of community. We embrace the masculine and feminine principles within all, fostering conversations that bridge differences and build understanding. Our thoughts and words are the vessels of transformation.
​
7. Intellectual Freedom: Principle of Mentalism & Principle of Cause and Effect We advocate for the unfettered exploration of ideas. Knowledge is the pathway to freedom—understanding the causes that shape our world empowers us to effect meaningful change. We question, we learn, and we grow, forever in pursuit of truth.
​
Conclusion: As Political Heretics, we don the mantle of change, guided by the timeless wisdom of the Hermetic principles. We are the thinkers, the dreamers, the rebels—united in our quest for a world that reflects the beauty and complexity of our deepest truths. Join us in this renaissance of mind and spirit, as we carve paths of enlightenment in the wilderness of the political landscape.
