Dark Magic
Magica Erebea
"Magica" is Latin for "magic." "Erebea" is the feminine singular nominative case of the adjective meaning "of Erebos." According to Hesiod, Erebos (Ἔρεβος Wink

is the god of darkness in Greek mythology, the son of one of the original gods, Chaos. The children that Erebos begat with his twin sister Nyx (night) were Aether (shining air) and Hemera (day), (cf. Theogony 123-125), and, being darkness and night, they are divine beings that precede light. In the words of the German romantic philosopher F. W. J. Schelling (1775-1854), "All birth is from darkness to light." ( Investigations of Human Freedom, SW360; but according to Hesiod, it wasn't that everything was born from Chaos and darkness-the heavens, the oceans, and many others were born from Gaia, who was born at the same time as Chaos. )

This light cannot give birth to darkness, bur darkness can give birth to light. Darkness is not in opposition to light. Darkness is a source that holds all things within it, and is tremendously broad-minded. And this broad-mindedness becomes a power that takes in all opposites such as good and evil, the superiority and inferiority, self and others, etc. This is because light is the basis of opposition and disparity. Schelling says, "Light's advance on the dark aspiration to create something ... is due to the thoughts that are mingles in chaos becoming distinct ... and unity is being erected" (ibid. SW316). If light is the basis of opposition and disparity, darkness is the basis of nondiscrimination. Therefore, dark magic has the tremendous broad-mindedness to take in all power withing discriminating between self and others.

Biggest dump of unique images I've ever seen in one post. I predict someone will try to top it.

( Dark magic cont. )
However, things are not that simple. Within darkness, all disparity becomes invisible; the difference between self and others vanishes as well, and the spellcaster looses sight of himself. But magic spells are never anything more than techniques the caster uses t accomplish his willful purposes; their purpose is not to reach some kind of absolute truth. As stated by Schelling's school colleague, G. W. F. Hegel (1770-1830), "To pit this single assertion, that 'In the Absolute, all is one,' against the organized whole of determinate and complete knowledge, or of knowledge which at least aims at and demands complete development-to give out the very naivete of emptiness of knowledge." ( Phenomenology of Spirit, preface ). In order to use a technique as a technique, especially within darkness, one must not lose sight of one's self.

What is needed then is a "confrontation with one's shadow," or "an encounter with one's anima."

Spidey, are you going to ignore Beg's challenge? Dump your entire image archives.

That'd be too predictable I guess :[

I would not expect it at all if spidey dumped her entire folder(s) of images.

No one would. pomegranate's something like 5-20 GB. Would crash our browsers.
