Archetypes

Magick is an art, and Reality is your canvas. Guided by inspi­ ration, you reshape the world in accordance with your vision of the Truth as you see it. Perhaps you’re a literal artist – a dancer, a painter, an author, a performer – who uses artistic media and intentions to focus your Awakened Arts; or maybe you’re a more abstract form of artist, employing artistic principles to guide the reality you create. You could, of course, do both. Regardless of your tools and affiliation, your vision reaches beyond mere physical or metaphysical technique, encompassing a greater Truth. Art, after all, speaks for those who have no voice, and so you speak on their behalf.

Expression is your gift to the world. Through art, you channel feelings and observations into a form that other folks can recognize. Ideally, the things you express resonate with a wider audience, inspiring them to change their world on an even greater scale.

As with many artists, though, you tend to get Stuck in Your Own Head. Your vision can become so self-focused that no one else can understand what you’re trying to express. At worst, this can lead to egotism, disconnection, depression, and insanity. Artists have a long tradition of going bugfuck nuts, and the Path of Artistry runs dangerously close to the Path to Marauderdom.

– Regain Willpower whenever you create a work of art in your chosen medium that communicates a sense of sublime Truth to your intended audience.
