Behold, friends, the latest in my ongoing series of astrologial images for study, contemplation, and enchantment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

The image of Jupiter, according to the opinion of Mercurius, is the shape of a man covered in a single linen cloth, riding upon a dragon, holding a lance or a dart in his hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

-Picatrix Book II, Chapter 10, Paragraph 17 (Attrell and Porecca, 2019)<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Some of you may recall, I shared the pencils of this image back at the beginning of September. I’m pleased to now share the digitally inked version.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is my third attempt to work within a frame to make the images a little more artistically sophisticated (see also this Saturn\u00a0\u00a0<\/a>and the Third Lunar Mansion<\/a>), and I’m really pleased with the results so far. Eventually, as I develop my visual language through this and other projects, I plan to go back to add Art Nouveau and Arabesque frames to those that don’t have them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Almost a dozen images into this series, I honestly feel like I’m making deeper connections to the planets and powers these images represent, and confirming (at least in my own mind) my long-held assertion that the images hold power of their own, which can be tapped outside the narrow constraints of Medeival and Renaissance astrological timing techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a patreon supporter, you’ll get to see everything I do before anyone else, and a lot of things that I don’t share publically.
