⚽ Football and the Game of Heads: The Magical Truth We’ve Forgotten
"The more difficult the victory, the greater the happiness in winning."
— Pelé, Brazilian football legend
Modern football may seem like an innocent sport — a spectacle of skill, passion, and unity. But when we peer beyond the surface, into the archetypal layers, the ancestral blood-memory, the energy field of sport — we uncover a much older, darker story. Especially when we speak of the “game of heads.” What, truly, is it to strike a sphere… that resembles a human head?
🧙🏻♂️ Echoes of Ancient Rituals?
Long ago, in primal and early mystical societies, the heads of enemies were taken as trophies — symbols of power, dominance, and control over life and death. Among the Celts, Scythians, Mayans, and medieval occult orders, decapitated heads were used in rites: thrown, paraded, or impaled on spikes as signs of conquest.
The skull was often sacred — a vessel of the soul, a symbol of ancestral force.
🤾🏻♂️Sport as Shadowed Ritual
We no longer cut off heads. But on a subconscious, energetic level — the ball is the head. The football field becomes an arena of symbolic warfare. And the act of heading the ball echoes the ancient touch of power — a strike not just against the object, but against the idea of the head itself.
Have you noticed the roar of the crowd when a goal is scored? It is the collective surge of ancestral thrill — once tied to blood and fire, now to cheers and adrenaline.
A goal is no longer a kill — but the egrégore remembers.
🏅 Where Magic Hides in Modern Play
I do not say this to fear the game. I say it to awaken awareness.
Every sport, every ritual, every repeated act exists on both the material and energetic plane. The head strike — that dramatic, airborne moment — is a threshold. A place where the physical and the symbolic meet.
