Art is magic, magic is art.


Art is Magic, Magic is Art


"I believe that magic is art and that art, whether it be writing, music, sculpture, or any other form is literally magic. Art is, like magic, the science of manipulating symbols, words, or images, to achieve changes in consciousness." - Alan Moore
"Why should you study and practice Magick? Because you can't help doing it, and you had better do it well than badly.""
— Aleister Crowley, Magick Without Tears

R. Crumbs vision of the future


I am in a state of indeterminism. I don't know what's going on, my life seems meaningless and chaotic right now. Yesterday Charlie as much as told me I was worthless, and Theo told me he didn't want me around. I could feel shattered, these are the people I love, my family, but this scenario is not unusual. I've gotten this negative feedback my whole life from my supposed loved ones.
So I am self-soothing which is a practice I developed from being left to sleep outside in the cold for 4 hour stretches. I just talk to my inner child and treat her as tenderly as possible. We are going off to rustle up some grub right now!
Yay! I found a stash of smoked almonds, plus I started a batch of soup. So far I have carrots and tumeric, but will add other ingredients later! Since my superpowers ar "Indifference" and "Extra-ordinariness{" making soup in the face of enormous grief and loneliness seems appropriate! Anyway, I enjoy the company of my Inner Child more than I do that of any other.
I am currently reading "Order Out of Chaos" by Ilya Prigogine and Isabelle Stengers. I am only on the foreward "Science and Change" by Alvin Toffler, author of "Future Shock." I am underlining and writing in the margins and taking notes, so this is going to take me a while. Which is good. My biggest issue in life is "pleasant ways to spend eternity." Today I have spent it mostly sleeping, which is a very pleasant activity, especially when I can bring treasures back from the Dreamtime.
Today I got the image of 'defragmenting my hard-drive" Which leads me to creating incrementally, more order in my life.
