Fresh material up on my website. This one's a slightly edited and very discursive collection of comments about what various colors symbolize for me and why they're meaningful, with relevance to how I might employ them in #magick.

Was reflecting on the irony that, in a way, I've come to "believe" in the God of the Bible more completely and wholeheartedly than I ever did when trying to be Christian. That is to say, I'm willing to accept that YHWH and Jesus are every bit as real as I regard Loki and Thoth and Mettaton to be. I just think they're pipsqueaks and liars, that's all.

trying to assure yourself a steady following by trying to pretend that you're _solely responsible for all of creation_ is kind of a shabby trick. The god of the Old Testament is really nowhere near big enough a god to lay convincing claim to that. I don't think even American fundies can quite make that real in their scrambled little heads; I think it's significant that the story of Noah prompts _far_ more emotional investment from young-earth Creationists. JWHW's a bit lacking as a would-be Creator of Everything, but he's quite believable as a guy who'd fuck the whole world's shit up on a whim.
