Existential sigil working: seek source.
Do not be distracted by the manifestation, look to their origination.
Really enjoying Bluesky. I still like tumblr and the capabilities of the platform here... but the Bluesky community is super engaged and the presence of politicians and journalists is such a different vibe from tumblr.
I've deleted my meta accounts, Facebook and Instagram. Just tumblr, bluesky, and discord now.
Symbolic Hieroglyphicum: The Pentagram
BY PHARZHUPH
I find the text about the pentagram above mainly rambling nonsense, but I appreciate actually bringing a bit of math into it.
Look into the pentagram itself. There you will find the horns and torch of baphomet...
The pentagram is a perfect expression of the finite manifesting the infinite. It’s proportions are the golden ratio, as illustrated the form of the golden spirals here.
But look deeper still and see yourself in the looking. Our minds insist on a point "up" or "down", an association that is meaningless to the form itself. We project this onto the pentagram and in so doing we project ourselves into it. We give it its dualities: left/right, down/up.
The male/female, not so much I think. I see an infinite dance of alternating polarities where what is active in one step is receptive in the next and associating active/receptive, odd/even, with male/female is chauvinistic confusion.
