Do What You Prefer
I hope to do today’s subject justice, as art has a great deal of meaning for many people, more so than many older views and traditions did. My writing class teachers even think of writers as artists. There is no less to creating a tale than to creating a painting. They are artists, just less emphasis…

Art Appeal
I’d love to go back in time and witness the first ever spoken word. It was probably an obscenity or an exclamation of awe. They have recently done a study regarding art. Art originated with religion on earth, so did cities, but of interest is the fact that when we are calm, art registers as more…

Ethereal Beings
I always though vampires were dark angels. Ah, vrolok are spirits suffering the punishment of the grave. Without free will, would angels have something similar to a hive mind?

They are the literal avatars or incarnations of the workings of the universe itself. Like being in the military, you have to follow orders.…

Angelic Dark Orders
Angel lore is very old. Some form of the concept of angel has existed in every culture. The word itself is derived from a Greek word, angelos, and was not even the word used by the Jewish culture we typically associate most of the commonly known names with. They referred to angels as Malach, the…

Activism in Context
The Zarathustrans heavily influence faith and philosophy all around them. The contemporary demonology, you might have some familiarity with, would have been an extension of their view and practices. I must emphasize that demonology is NOT demonolatry. They studied the demons of their cosmology in order to understand and diagnose the problems that occurred in…
This also seems descriptive for a type 3 indigo. I do have many of these traits that alternate but know…
