90s Actor Andrew Keegan Starts A New Religion
Founding a new religion which he calls “Full Circle” in Venice Beach, California, the movie star made the decision to start the movement after experiencing a series of traumatic events and odd coincidences. Keegan and his girlfriend, Leah, now operate Full Circle out of an empty church they leased.
It began in March of 2011, when Keegan and his friends were assaulted and robbed by gang members one night on the beach. The attack put the actor in the hospital. Following this event, a series of odd coincidences convinced Keegan that something bigger was at play, as if these events were all somehow connected. He also stated, “The significance of this occurrence is that it happened at the same time the tsunami hit Japan.” Other strange incidents Keegan witnessed include a street lamp exploding and a crystal that “jumped” off of an altar.
Full Circle fashions itself as a new-age, spiritual religious movement, and boasts a dedicated and growing following. Keegan runs the show with his “inner circle,” which includes his girlfriend, a talking parrot named Krishna, and other close associates. Regarding the name of the group, the actor explained, “Synchronicity. Time. That’s what it’s all about. Whatever, the past, some other time. It’s a circle; in the center is now. That’s what it’s about.”
The movement incorporates various aspects of Eastern religious traditions along with new-age spiritual practices such as healing crystals. Full Circle gatherings host a wide variety of activities such as live indy music, meditation, and seminars on alternative medicine. At one of the services, the group focused their energy on water crystals in order to bring peace between Israel and Palestine. Afterwards, Keegan stated, “there’s power in the crystals, there’s power in our hearts, there’s an alignment, there’s a resonance… and it transfers through water.”
