I plan on maybe starting a new blog to document the exoteric side of my magical workings and the process of creating my own Thoth based tarot deck. This way I can keep this mostly about art, as so much of it has been overlapping. Then I may run the danger of leaving this blog altogether, since spiritual enlightenment is the only worthwhile subject I feel I should paint about, all else seems like child's play by comparison. That leaves only my Dusk of the Dead paintings to talk about, and even those have a genuine mystical symbolism. So I guess I just talked or wrote myself into keeping this as is, and maybe changing the description a little, why would I add more "homework" for myself with more blogs?
The shower is the best place for brilliant ideas, must be the flow of water similar to that in the Star card, the collective unconscious, coming from the Greater Heh into my little microcosmic head.
Yesterday I had the idea to paint, and destroy 2 consecutive paintings, then rebuild from the ashes the third, I'll leave it at this so that I don't forget about it later in life, too much going on now, it would be a ritual of great power.
Today I came up with ways to categorize my time:
Absorption: reading, research, * successful* meditation, I'll even call it pondering an idea, putting it "in my pipe and smoking it"
Application: Magical workings, Drawing/painting studies, working out of ideas composition, sketches, meditation.
Projection: The final destination to much of what I learn in the previous two, imparting my insights to others, Painting with a capital "P" sure of where I'm going with it, writing this blog, writing my thoughts down.
The rest falls into two categories, Work as in job to make money so I can eat and lastly, Fun.
With this maybe I can now better manage my time, and prioritize things, I've been mostly Absorbing this passed winter, but necessarily so.
