In fact this is the Hermetic Rose cross, nice work! Do you belongs to the Order?

i am forced to ask the illustrator, do the colors incorporated count as divine colors.
Either way. it is beautiful.
for those of you feeling the need to bash this symbol or belief systems attached to it. before you can criticize something; you must know it. The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn requests all followers to respect any and all religions; they state that all religions contain at least a spark of divine. I have sat through sermons for the sole purpose of learning more about a religion i am unfamiliar with.
If you are unwilling to learn about a subject before conversing on it, then you should just sit back and lurk.

A fantastic explanation of the hermetic rose cross symbolism can be found in Lon Milo Duquette's book "Understanding Aleister Crowley's Thoth Tarot".

Is it not the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn ?

Also. And Thelema. And Freemasonry. And various other derivatives.
Great piece there. Although it's not precisely "fantasy". Very far from it, actually.

Yeah you're right, not fantasy, just people with dull lives trying to inject meaning.

No... Because it originated as a real esoteric and religious symbol. Have you even seen it in a work of fantasy? Keep those aggressive holier-than-thou opinions to yourself.

And that was my point.

Lol, you speak to me like i'm ignorant in the realm of esoteric orders. I used to be into all that crap before I realised how irrational I was being.

And then you proceeded to enlighten yourself with crappy hip hop. Fair enough.

How so? Remember, discussions are generally a fight between an intelligent and a stupid party. People outside can't tell the difference most of the time. I've already wasted too much attention on your pitiful person. Keep embarrassing yourself, but do so alone now.

"discussions are generally a fight between an intelligent and a stupid party"
That's quite a large assumption.
"Keep embarrassing yourself, but do so alone now"
You are the one that resorted to insulting my music taste. You have not raised a single valid point in which to counter my views on the subject, you have not raised any evidence in support of your bullshit beliefs and you won't be able to. Sorry but you, sir, are cunt acid of the lowest form, you are arse gravy - a liquid stool sample. It's me who's wasted my time on you, you intellectually-repressed wishful thinker.

"You have not raised a single valid point in which to counter my views on the subject, you have not raised any evidence in support of your bullshit beliefs and you won't be able to."
Nor have you. And the one resorting to low insults is you as far as I am concerned. I have not insulted your musical taste; I have made a point about the level of intelligence and education of this person, "Aesop Rock". Anyone that reads a minimum of his quotes can immediately grasp his level of idiocy. And I have NEVER expressed my belief or disbelief in any of the things discussed, starting with the Rose Cross. I made a point that it is far from fantasy as it is considered that religion and esoteric beliefs are not, as far as anybody is concerned. Belief in them is something completely different. I can understand your attempts at insulting my person. You wanna play smart? Start by being smart. You won't see me resort to that lowliest street level offenses.

"Nor have you"
Maybe you should look at how I worded that statement.
"And the one resorting to low insults is you as far as I am concerned."
Show me.
"I have not insulted your musical taste"
"And then you proceeded to enlighten yourself with crappy hip hop"
"Anyone that reads a minimum of his quotes can immediately grasp his level of idiocy."
And what 'quotes' of his have you read?
"I made a point that it is far from fantasy as it is considered that religion and esoteric beliefs are not, as far as anybody is concerned."
Religion and esoteric beliefs have no basis in reality. That equals fantasy.
"I can understand your attempts at insulting my person. You wanna play smart? Start by being smart. You won't see me resort to that lowliest street level offenses."
Again, back up your statements please. You're accusing me of doing what you are doing.

"Show me."
Right here:
"...cunt acid of the lowest form, you are arse gravy - a liquid stool sample."
As for "countering" your views, the same applies. You have not shown proof for them. And you won't as well.

What a cheap way to get out of what I had asked of you. Thank you for proving my point.
"As for "countering" your views, the same applies. You have not shown proof for them. And you won't as well."
I don't need to address what you believe until you attempt to show me proof - the opus is always on the believer. If I claim I can talk to the dead it is up to you to ask me for proof, not for me to ask you proof that I cannot - that's fucking ridiculous. So again, a cheap way of trying to get out of something. By the way, I was in deeper to that crap than you probably assume, trust me, it really is bullshit.

No, no. Thank you for proving MY point. I never said I was into or believed in anything nor have claimed so in any form in this space. Now, as far as I am concerned, I retire from this pointless discussion. Do as thou wilt.
