Blue and gold


Thuthie linked to this pic of megapreacher Joel Osteen, noting that that stage has a hollow globe as its centerpiece, and not a cross. Also note that the color scheme is classic blue and gold. Those ceiling panels remind me of water (Oannes, Osiris) and those light fixtures look like... well, you know what they look like. Quite an interesting mix of signifiers, no?

Blue is for "wealth magick" in Chaos Magick, wealth meaning control over people. Gold/orange is for "cunning" or thinking power. Places like this will always remind me of the early '90s and vapid pop-country music, haven't we evolved at all since then...?

Hollow earth? Mega-church = mega-corruption.

Yes, the prosperity gospel number. I thought Jesus was against wealth and greed. Oh well...

Your recent comment that the "hollow earth" = "contact device" = Baphomet got me thinking. It seems to me that this image of the earth could be equivalent to Eve, Gaia, Cybele, Mary, etc.

The only image missing is the heavenly impregnation beam from Osiris.
