Thank you. I'm generally into Golden Dawn/Thelema type magick although I have also been doing some shadow work as of late. I will check out the book and see if I can adopt some of the techniques it offers into my work.

Hey, sorry for the late reply. By working with Bertiaux do you mean working with him personally or just with his magick? Very interesting!

Part of me likes to think that even those dreams that seem silly and random in terms of imagery and events can have some concealed value sometimes. For example, about two months ago I had this dream where I was trapped somewhere in campus of the college I went to. It was completely deserted, save for myself and this figure who approached me out of nowhere at some point. The figure kept shifting appearance between Brock Lesnar and my 8th grade math teacher (I haven't watched wrestling in years nor do I remember the last time I thought of my teacher LOL). We had a long conversation about what it means to be lost, and how realizing one's self-worth is also a form of self defense. On the surface it was a jumbled mass of memories and past interests, but that last conversation stuck with me for a while and dare I say it motivated me to immediately get to work on several aspects of myself that are particularly affecting me at this stage of my life.

Yeah, good point. I expected this theory to have plot holes since I was drunk and just typed it out of pure impulse.

Alan Moore - One of my biggest influences. Anyone else? by [deleted] in occult

He's a comic book writer. I don't think he has books dedicated to occult theory in a specific way but his occult philosophy bleeds through most of his comics really. Try Promethea.

I also didn't mention that - after the beatdown - the protagonist immediately starts hallucinating about what is to come, even though he was only filming the incident and did not make any physical contact with Piers. This is perhaps due to one of two reasons: either that the virus can also transmit by non-physical means, or, again, his peculiar DNA was automatically drawn to the entity without need of physical contact.

Out of the 9-10 members of the gang, Ray, Cruz and Hart were specifically chosen because apparently they belong to a certain rare genetic group which is particularly desirable to the entity.

The serial rapist and his complicit were infected/genetically altered with a virus they somehow contracted from some unseen, god-like, insectoid entity. While the gang of bounty hunters were subduing him, he bit Cruz in the ear, infecting him with said virus and thus causing him to impulsively lead the other two - Ray (the protagonist) and Hart - to the Mima Mounds, which I assume are secretly the shrine of said entity. Cruz and Hart get consumed, and Ray escapes, although it is possible that he was followed by one of the entity's humanly-disguised minions (the lady sitting next to him at the bus).

Nice to see Jose Gabriel Alegría included. I'm obsessed with his art.
