Grounding out the Vision:
“Wise Serpent’s core grassroots mission is to create a positive shift in Australian Youth Culture through Music, Art, and Wisdom. This is because I lost my cousin to Youth Suicide when she was just 14, and, after learning the leading cause of young Australians was suicide + twice as many attempts of suicide within my industry – the entertainment industry…I just decided I had to do something about it (one positive experience, one soul at a time). If you wish to support my work in helping create a positive shift in Aus Youth Culture (all my Artist Development services I give for free to 14-24 youth in Australia), then partner with the vision to create a positive shift, visit the37club.com.au.” ~ Grace Lion-Hunter, Spiritual Artist & Brand Creator
FROM THE KING COBRA
Hey, I’m Grace Lion-Hunter (that’s me on the left. No…not my left, your left… I’m the trans-dimensional dick head with the robe).
I’m a Spiritual Artist, Magician & Sonic Therapist with overly ambitious entrepreneurial tendencies – for funz.
My official title @ The Wise Serpent Group is ‘Minister of The Arts’.
I have a mixture of roles under that title including Spiritual Artist/Visionary, Advisor, Lifestyle Designer, magician, sonic therapist.
Honestly, I feel like I am playing a kind of Wizard of Oz role here, but with just the right amount of Charlie Chapman.
I’d like to think I could be the good version of Charles Manson.
The good version.
My friends call me j3ZOZ (pronounced ‘Jesus’), or ‘j3ZOZ the WIZARD’. Again, for fun (Matthew 18:3)
I’m basically a spiritual Tin Tin, exploring the Art of Rebirth through Music. Art. Wisdom.
We can sum it all up best with The Lord's Words from the Book of Matthew 10:16: “I Am Sending You as Sheep among Wolves… Be as Wise as Serpents & as Innocent as Doves.”
Yeah…that’s where the mothership brand name comes from – WISE SERPENT.
WHAT’S THE CONTENT LIKE
To give you some context into my world, you could probably think of me as a bogan version of the Wizard of Oz (that reference again...you probably can't tell I had that film on repeat when I was a kid. It was either that or Shirley Temple whilst visiting my grandparents back in the 80s/90s) in that I produce/project spiritually-inspired & experimental underground content here in South Australia, which manifests itself through Music, Art, and Wisdom.
Although I will be releasing media through various sites, Wise Serpent Underground exists to house my growing collection of multi-dimensional behind-the-scenes content, including excerpts taken directly from my own private audio diary with conversations (with myself & others) around these three core subject areas:
—————————————–
MUSIC, ART & WISDOM
—————————————–
As well as this I will be documenting & exploring the #ArtofRebirth (the beauty of transformation) in a dark (but beautiful), tongue-in-cheek way. You'll get to know my dry sense of humour along the way I hope.
My intention with Wise Serpent is to inspire, empower & showcase other creative individuals who are (either consciously or unconsciously) on their own unique ‘Art of Rebirth’ path to fulfilment, enlightenment & self-realization.

JOIN THE CONVERSATION
Whether it’s the Music, Art or Wisdom you’re into at Wise Serpent, I hope you find yourself a home here & can join in the conversation when I do call outs.
If you’re a musician, artist or entrepreneur who likes to think outside the box… I think you’re really going to love it here!
If that’s you, keep reading below for a brief overview of Wise Serpent and how content is organised and distributed + you can check out some testimonials at the bottom of the page [highly recommended].
And of course, let me know your thoughts about the underground magazine on Instagram.
I’d love to hear from you.
Talk soon...
Stay Wise.

OVERVIEW: MUSIC, ART & WISDOM
Content on this site contains many excerpts from my own private audio diary (these were not intended for public release at the time of recording).
All content is broken down into 3 categories:
These three core categories (MUSIC, ART, WISDOM) overlap and intertwine throughout an additional 3 manifestations [organised and distributed socially via hashtags] according to their function*
#wiseserpentunderground [Wise Serpent behind-the-scenes + notes on entrepreneurship, business, branding + the creative process]
#jezozjournal [My own songwriting journal + personal audio diary + content relating to my music and my band ‘The Dark Cloud of His Presence’]
#artofrebirth [Short film studies + Dark-Art Exhibits + spiritual insights + revelations on transformation + conversations with other spiritual artists + transformational stories]
*If this all seems too much – don’t worry. Just think of these hashtags as channels that help link Wise Serpent content appropriately to Social Media.
All content essentially bleeds into one on this site.
GLOSSARY
#ARTOFREBIRTH
Wise Serpent Underground dives deep into the mind of the artist to leverage insight on how to harness creativity, embody health, wealth + access that blissful flow state as we explore the inner world of the modern-day artist.
The ‘Art of Rebirth’ is all about transforming your experience holistically in an artful way so you can live in fun positive flow in every area of life.
With everything I do at Wise Serpent [from life design, songwriting, filming & creative entrepreneurship], this is at the very heart of it.
Art of Rebirth simply means the beauty of transformation.
One of my biggest dreams is to one day travel the world to create short film studies while interviewing both iconic & underground [virtually unkown] artistic personalities around this topic of transformation.
Expect deeper spiritual conversations, dreams and interpretations, and experimental artistic content wherever you find this hashtag.
The Art of Rebirth is the beauty of transformation.
#JEZOZJOURNAL
This channel is for sharing moments that are also taken straight out of my personal audio diary.
These include raw phone demos, song-sketches, stories & content relating to my visionary art/punk project and band: ‘j3ZOZ and The Dark Cloud of His Presence’.
[FYI my biggest influencers musically are Kurt Cobain, Jeff Buckley, Jimmy Paige & Radiohead]
To make things more interesting, I’ll most likely be repurposing entries from j3ZOZ jOURNAL to help develop the soundtrack and subplot for my upcoming web TV series: The Art of Rebirth.
#WISESERPENTUNDERGROUND
Here I invite you underground & pull back the curtain to reveal the process behind the creative and business side of things at WISE SERPENT.
I do this by documenting my own transformative journey in my attempt to build a meaningful and inspiring underground cult/legacy brand – Wise Serpent – that creates a shift in Australian youth culture through music, art, and wisdom.
With Wise Serpent being a hybrid: part ministry, part social cause (the 37 Club), part media/art house, part life design & creative / talent development agency (https://wiseserpentdream.com), and, part Record Label… there is always multi-dimensional content at play.
Whether you are a spiritual artist, underground musician, or creative entrepreneur, Wise Serpent Underground is the place you will get to go deeper behind the scenes than anywhere else.
In Short, Wise Serpent Underground is where you come get your artistic Behind-the-Scenes fix.
