Thrice-Gay Himbomess
The criminal serpent lies
Stars fear me, Gods want me (unconcious), Ancient Scrolls recommend dynamite

Driven relentlessly by a fey mood that's gone on since the last millennium & the wind is only picking up

A subculture indeed. Not just one thing, not just one aesthetic, not just one scene. There are few universal values within & are linked to the dominant visual culture by happenstance

Then again this is a leftist in a diy animal costume so maybe there's a center

Have been thinking of magicks of aphrodite and just how practical the rituals are
these three in particular have proven effective (if not useful)
the stelle of aphrodite
the saucer of divination
the gem of aroriphrasis

A carbuncle engraved with the form of the beautiful dragon will make its bearer happy healthy & wealthy.

The dragon is specifically the celestial one which divides the bears Arcas & Callisto are held & the serpent's winding mirrors the stars'

The images are names of the lunar mansions or stars significant to the mansion

Notably center left WIOAH is over a glyph evocative of that of Corscor

TLDR is that
The point was that the bird on an Athenian silver coin (fig 1) is not bird 1 (fig 2) much less bird 2 (fig 3) which is neither bird
& that someone mistook the first for the latter is an indictment on how folk treat the serious holding of religious & magical beliefs

It looks kinda dull & gray as it cools down but look at it closely.
See the purple shimmer to it?!

But so I'm sketching out so I can have a template & I might have gone a bit over far with Apollo pythios

Wait! In the behenian star stuff
Where they say a lamp omatippa bergi could it mean
This kind of very fennely candelabra?
Omatippa bergi meaning mountain like?
