Since meeting that woman, I have come across
several other women who have shared a similar
experience and it has left me highly sceptical of
the 'New Age' scene.
Theo, and he is by far not the only one, surrounds
himself with groups of women who all seem to
believe he is some kind of 'Higher Vibrational
Being'. Many have also worked in his shop or
attended festivals with him whilst he has plied
them with free crystals and drugs.
Being surrounded by all these women also gives
a false impression that he is trustworthy and safe
whereas I now realise he is a sexual predator who
preys on women looking for answers to a better
life, finding a soulmate or to ease their pain.
He reminds me of an esoteric Pied Piper, using
shiny stones to lure his prey and the more I think
about it, the more convinced I am that Theo sees
himself as some kind of cult leader, albeit on a
much more provincial scale.
He even talks the language of cults:
*Portals
*Transformation
*Activation
*Consciousness
*Reprogramming
*Enlightenment.
All designed to draw in women looking for
answers. With Theo, there is also an obsession
with phallic objects like the crystals and wands
and, what worries me most, is how the recently
bereaved, victims of abuse and rape, the newly
divorced, newly single or terminally ill will
invariably come into contact with him and there is
nothing to stop Theo and other unscrupulous and
exploitative people like him.
How many people has he offered a joint to,before
telling them that the best way of ridding
themselves of the ties of past relationships is to
have sex with someone else?
It worries me that preys on the vulnerable.
It worries me a lot.
