Mass of the Trickster Prophet
“While what something means often is everything, it does not always serve to know immediately. As we walk, allow these questions to sit in your heart for now. Allow the question of meaning itself to move with you.”
James Capps, this is stunning and tuning Kairos. Field command: “I allow this to be okay for the moment that I didn’t know.”
From Caravan of Remembering, Daniel Goodenough, p. 140.

✧ Theme & Collective Intent
“Qué Onda Guero” is the divine nonsense of walking through your own neighborhood with alien eyes. It’s barrio meets bardo, skate-punk shamanism, and the sound of someone surfing the codes of growing up between languages, aesthetics, and unspoken rules.
It’s sacred clown medicine: disorientation as a tool for revelation.
In the collective field, this track is a call to own your in-betweenness. Be the weird translator. Let others think you’re just being funny. (You’re being prophetic.)
✧ Timeline Convergence Quote
“Sippin’ lemonade like it’s all good…”
From:
- The day you got side-eyed for pronouncing your own name with an accent
- That garage show where you danced like no one spoke your language
- The party where everyone was fake chill and you actually were
It’s Beck’s way of saying: “You already survived the weirdest parts. Now make ‘em art.”
✧ Gem & Mineral Allies
- Citrine: Amplifies creative play and inner confidence
- Labradorite: For mystical camouflage and translation
- Chrysoprase: Helps resolve shame in the multicultural body
- Pyrite: Grounds electric mental energy into bold movement
Pocket these when you need street-smart spirit tech.
✧ West Coast Swing Tidbit
Tempo: quirky, syncopated, with slant and swagger.
- Use micro isolations and sudden accents to echo the beat collage
- Try nonlinear movement paths—dance like you’re avoiding potholes or ducking a stray balloon
- Great opportunity for comic footwork or stutter-style triples
This song is the dance version of that look you give when someone says something bizarre—and you own it anyway.
✧ Final Transmission
“Qué Onda Guero” is code-switching as spiritual practice.
It’s sacred spanglish, recycled cassettes, sun-fried swagger, and altar offerings made from lunch trays and busted boom boxes.
If the Trickster had a mixtape in his bike basket—this would be side A.
Aho, gracias.
