In May 2014, MysterE founded the River House MysterE School on a 2.5 acre plot just south of Boulder, Colorado with a net worth of $8 in quarters guided by a sequence of mysterious serendipity. What followed over the next 8 years was a continuance of miracles, healing, mysticism, scared art, expression in a community setting.
Known as a place where all were welcomed, there was always a bed, good conversation and everyone always got fed, the community operated on compassion, generosity and stewardship. Endless songs, books, schools, bands, businesses and relationships were initiated in the Creative Dynamic Open Space, where anything is possible with open hearts.
In a shadowy series of events after the 2020 Pandemic, the community collapsed back into the mystery from which it sprang, when key community members abandoned the shared principles of compassion, selflessness and giving, and took everything instead, leaving MysterE homeless.
With a shattered heart and determination, MysterE began a new play in his mystical journey which led him to travel through the United States and Mexico with his guitar, didgeridoo, books and tarot cards - where he connected with old friends, new experiences and deep truths about the nature of reality and community.
Now in October 2025 after years of integration, MysterE is offering the wisdom of the River House Community by sharing the experiences, stories, characters and lessons and how we can learn from our mistakes to create a Compassionate Economy through initiating a community based on the demonstration of true compassion. Indeed the River House is but a mirror into our collective entanglement with miscreation.
In these photos: A snippet of the characters, experience and art created from May 2014 until May 2022. Enjoy! Many are published in the New Earth Tarot of the Black Sheep, and Black Sheep Wisdom Oracles.

What follows now is a rebirthing of community from the same principles - with a wiser framework of discernment from which to build. MysterE is currently collaborating with several parties to bring the magic of community back in establishing a new headquarters for a Compassionate Economy. Stay Tuned!
