Is someone following me?
In the presence of automated footprints, up-and-coming solo artists are prone to the dangers of Neo-Paganism. This can occur while following one another in a trail of uniform business services set up by DIY record labels such as Apple Music for Artists. With nature and fertility set up as pillars of Neo-Paganism, organized thinking while focusing on these automated footprints can lead novice Christians to the behavior of self-constructing organized body worship. Along the way, understanding other’s trauma as well as not allowing others to tell them what to do are lessons that can’t come sooner.
Common constructs that may be found and abandoned can be used as defense from Neo-Paganistic strikes that derive from the secular four humors. One defense entails Identity, Victim and Author, Author being God on the right side of the body (gall bladder, ambition in summer). On the left side of the body, the Seven Gifts of the Holy Ghost (spleen, emotional depth in winter).
Another common construct could be singing’s connection to the Three Directions of the Holy Spirit; Inward, Upward and Outward. The Holy Trinity’s ability to teach, penetrate, mature and transform can create a path of sacrifice or conversion. Business services paralleling the Holy Trinity also offer grounded protection in the form of external gifts that come along the way. While pulling from nothing is the wisest decision in carving or following a path, one may run into the presence of the three visitors as well as the washing of the feet’s relationship with holy tile and lapis lazuli; ego, and why one can’t be royalty.
To return to the spleen, the prospect of hiding something to control avoidance may lead to another layer of defense. One is by hiding Zion’s message of sin passing. Sacred Heart’s piercing involvement with the tortured artist motif could lead to a conscious assumption that there is no need to sin at all. Nodding off while on your knees, phlegm rising as one hits their head to wake back up; the presence of Abrahamism passing. Then out to the music venue to present one’s work. In doubt of others, blood flows at wrist length, hands at side guide the respect of their parents and not touching one’s face prevents the spread of disease. Send beautiful birds, one would pray. Wanting nothing after so many performances may also be a path worth following, the Sacred Heart candle’s lighting for Israel’s God allowing the peace of learning the industry amongst polytheists.
Now come the most notable dangers of having found the automated footprints. There is the lure of doing favors for one another, that is, once a solo musician accepts they are being followed. There is also the guttural excuse as to how your body can be attached to candles, the constant annoyance resulting in a penetration of the Holy Spirit as opposed to Lent’s placated span of time. Finally, the peer devaluation of candles as just cheap candles when concern should be emanating from the relationship of isolation and extended projects.
