Leaving a Mark: Practices of a Plague Doctor

By Michael Anthony Alberta

Leaving a Mark brings body art back from where it once came, as a medicinal practice. To the author, tattoos and piercings can behave like acupuncture needles. Leaving a Mark fuses this with how historic landmarks were inserted over ley lines. Perhaps disease reflects an imbalance of these energy channels, both in our bodies and on this planet. This book explores body art on multiple levels, asking readers how far are we willing to go. Leaving a Mark relates this question to the exotic topic of transhumanism and the implications therein. So this book isn't just about a microdermal piercing on the back of your neck or a tattoo on your ribs, it's about much more than that. It will talk about how the brain and the heart work, how the energy of our bodies work through chakras, and other esoteric knowledge. All of that has to be presented and discussed to understand what's at stake when we mark each other. So if you're just looking for how to perform traditional body art, this isn't the book for you. But if you're looking to transform your life, maybe even to heal and come into contact with energies you can't begin to imagine yet, then welcome to the journey. In the beginning the book will cover the fundamentals of what we do and how to do it. We will also expose the dangers with this line of thought. We'll get into the significance of bloodletting and ancient stone technology. Some sections might turn into a history lesson, but we only do that to show you how major world cultures coincide with each other through body art. We'll also pay homage to the divinity within the color spectrum. In this book we keep things relatively simple. The main goal is to orient the human body in an auspicious manner.
