So, I'm sitting here meditating on each picture of the guys in the group on the CD. And I started with Justin's since his is the most simplistic of the pictures, and I came up with this.
He's a scorpio, born November 19th. Just barely a socripo, but a scopio none the less. Oddly enough, he's a fixed Fire sign, but if you'll notice he's got an eagle, which represent the highest nature of Scoprio, which is love. So, here's what Crowley has to say about scorpio:
Threefold is the Nature of Love: Eagle, Serpent, and Scorpion. And of these the Scorpion is he that, having no Lion of Light and Courage within him, seemeth to himself encircled by Fire, and, driving his Sting into himself, he dieth. Such are the Black Brothers, that cry: I am I; they that deny Love, restricting it to their own Nature. But the Serpent is the Secret Nature of Man, that is Life and Death, and maketh his Way through the Generations in Silence. And the Eagle is that Might of Love which is the Key of Magick, uplifting the Body and its Appurtenance unto High Ecstasy upon his Wings. It is by Virtue thereof that the Sphinx beholdeth the Sun unwinking, and confronteth the Pyramid without Shame.”2
He's surrounded by fire (candles) but is holding the eagle, which as Crowley states is the key of magick.
I think these pictures are LOADED with alchemical and hermetic meaning, if anyone would care to contribute I'm curious to see what you guys come up with. It tickles me pink that Danny has a Thoth tarot deck AND his dagger in his picture!!
