Psyche Delectus: Invisibles Day 2016

Though the dark half of the year is full upon us, there comes a day for rekindling the fire.  Each year on November 23rd I celebrate the re-ignition of failing light with a new piece of art dedicated to one of my favorite comic books series, The Invisibles.

Last year I missed this day and the year that followed was one of growing confusion and darkness.  These things may inevitably be unrelated.  I nonetheless return with a renewed fire.

Winter has come early and harsh and there is an old enemy at the gates with a new smiling face and shining promises of a return to past glories.  Deadly, deadly illusion has come calling.  Let this piece be a call to renew the light and the fight. I send this light into the future with hope.

On November 23rd, 1995 Grant Morrison involved the readers of his comic book series The Invisibles in a group act of sigil magick.  Check out the original letters page from the comic to see how the idea was initially presented.  Join me today in my annual celebration of The Invisibles Hypersigil!
