“Wonder had gone away, and he had forgotten that life is only a set of pictures in the brain, among which there is no difference betwixt those born of real things and those born of inward dreamings, and no cause to value the one above the other.” -H.P. Lovecraft, The Silver Key “Jung held that the significance of these fantasies was due to the fact that they stemmed from the mythopoeic imagination which was missing in the present rational age. The task of individuation lay in establishing a dialog with the fantasy figures -or contents of the collective unconscious -and integrating them into consciousness. Hence recovering the value of the mythopoeic imagination which has been lost to the modern age, and thereby reconciling the spirit of the time with the spirit of the depth.” -The Red Book

In all the infinite universe is it “all” creatures that don’t realize that the evil they conceive of only comes from their own “hearts”, before its too late? For themselves and for the world? When nothing is sacred anymore and there’s nothing but cynicism in the air, Lets all make jokes and act like we don’t Care.

A representation of the Bell Curve. The dagger represents the normalizing force and the snake the deviant force. I used a ritual Tibetan dagger as reference -sometimes they are hammered into the ground to represent a sacred protective boundary, which couldn’t have been more appropriate. Thanks for amazing clients, send me your mathematician, physicist and comparative mythology interests. For that matter send me some H.P Lovecraft and KALI tattoos as well. All Hail the Great Sinusoid. #danieltrocchio #bellcurve #sinusoidal #finite
