    Spirited Away

    We review Spirited Away (2001) as a Thyrsus Awakening in Chronicles of Darkness and discuss what matches and what doesn't. https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight

    Thyrsus

    We talk more in-depth about Thyrsus, the Primal Wild, Beasts, and how these things can be represented. https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight Thyrsus are those who rule Life and Spirit to tend the state of the Primal Wild, taming ideas in it which grow too powerful while healing those in danger. A Shaman lives within the song of the universe, living their lives to understand the spirits it creates. Ecstatics epitomize the Primal Wild, living as an ideal example of the current aspect of it which has their attention. A Thyrsus is The Hermit in the Tarot, their magic The Moon. The Spirits they create are a perfect source of introspection on their quest seeking inner truth and their magic serves as a means of fighting the fear of the unknown, powered by trust of their instincts to show them the way in the face of uncertainty. They summon Beasts, the Supernal entities under the Primal Wild's purview. Atavisms represent its brutality, appearing as a fearsome animal to offer their Thyrsus summoner their expertise of the Life Arcanum, typically acting on instinct. Their counterparts are called Totems, conscious spirits with their own will to offer their intuitive mastery of Spirit magic.

    The Matrix

    We review The Matrix (1999) as an Obrimos Awakening, with mentions of some other various interpretations in a Chronicles of Darkness context. (I meant to talk about the "there is no spoon" scene before Neo meets the Oracle, but forgot. It's a very good example of the Matter Arcanum.) https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight

    Obrimos

    This week we talk more in-depth about the Obrimos Path, how it is experienced as an Awakening, and the ways those who Awaken under it imagine their magic to work. https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight Obrimos see the world through the Aether to rule Forces and Prime, the energetic effects on everything in the Fallen World and the Truth of the Supernal itself. They are called Thaumaturges when attempting to dazzle others with their will, and Theurgists for their devotion to the truth of Truth. As members of the only Path to represented by one of two Tarot, Obrimos are the Hierophant for believing in the structure found in conformity and conventional wisdom, or the High Priestess for focusing on personal intuition and the wisdom of their subconscious. Their spells are a manifestation of Strength, shaping the world with a will that has the courage to face it with compassion. Obrimos summon Angels from the Aether, Seraphim and Cherubim. The manifest Seraphim often have a Biblical appearance but may also appear as some elemental phenomenon, like ball lightning. On the other hand, the recondite Cherubim are beings of raw power and magic, taking many shapes which sometimes include the animal forms of Biblical Cherubim, and which visibly glow with Mana. Angels typically provide their summoners with Boons of direct benefit, perhaps the revelation of a Mystery, or simply defeating their foes.

    The Seventh Seal

    The Seventh Seal (1957) is a movie about a knight who comes home from the Crusades to be greeted by the devastation wrought by the black death. We talk about how the Moros symbolism in Mage: the Awakening matches what can be seen in the movie. https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight

    Moros

    This week's discussion is about the Moros Path to Stygia and after, including the symbolism seen along the Path and that which they use for their spells. https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight Moros, rulers of Matter and Death, have taken a Path to Stygia to find Truth in the ever-changing and ever-lasting, and become known as Alchemists and Necromancers. The former mend and repurpose prized possessions while the latter perform services upon the dead and the memories they leave behind. Death embodies Moros Awakened in the Tarot. They are an unrelenting force of change which cannot be escaped. Their spellcasting comes with a feeling of finality, the World manifest. The will of a Moros can spell both an inevitable conclusion and a new beginning. The Supernal denizens of Stygia are Shades, some called Apeirons and others known  as Spectres. Apeirons are experts of artifact lore and magical substances, often taking the form of some material shifting between physical phases or as a skilled laborer. A Spectre will appear as an unmistakable symbol of death to grant True knowledge of what is no more and insights into the nature of death, even how it might be escaped.

    Everything Everywhere All At Once

    Everything Everywhere All At Once (2022) is the story of a Mastigos Awakening and we describe how the symbology matches. https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight

    Mastigos

    We describe our understanding of the Mastigos Path in Mage: the Awakening, the symbology they use in their spellcasting, and interesting concepts of Mastigos inspired by other media. (Chris also says they rule "Time and Space" in the intro but he meant "Mind and Space".) https://www.instagram.com/magesightmedia https://www.patreon.com/c/MageSight Mastigos rule Mind and Space to master their communities, after taking a Path to Pandemonium. They learn that the sentimental feeling of a beloved trinket is a manifestation of the Truth, one which can be used to protect those close to them or assault their enemies from any distance. As Warlocks, they have a reputation for blanching at formality, and a Psychonaut is called such for their expansive explorations of their soul. The emotions which Mastigos Awakenings teach them to rule are the creatures they find in their Astral journeys, represented by the Devil in the Tarot. The Tarot of their Imago is Temperance, the peace of mind they idealize after a visit to Pandemonium, and a personal goal that is ever out of reach. Imps and Wraiths, Demons of Pandemonium, are summoned by Warlocks. Demons are terrifying and dangerous creatures, taking the form of either an Imp, a Sympathetic expert which can bring a Mastigos Awakened to the target of their attention, or of a Wraith, a manifestation of its summoner's emotions, typically summoned as a means of self-reflection.
