Icon Restrictions

    Could someone with a copy of Postmodern Magick please give me a brief list of the criteria someone must meet in order to be channeled by Iconomancers? I know they’ve got to be dead, they’ve got to be famous, and they’ve got to have died after World War II. I would also guess that they have to be, for the most part, a positive figure, which would rule out, say, Hussein. Is this correct, and is there anything else I don’t know?

    Must be famous and dead. Must be instantly reconizable to at least a hundred million people (In face, name and life). Must be held in high esteem by a reasonable percentage of those who know him, and must have died after World war 2, preferably tragically.

    WTF? 🙂
    No smacktalking about the queen of white trash please! ANS is a goddess who made her own humiliation and complete disagreable position into a thing of envy some how and then when all else fails and she dies “mysteriously”(I mean c’mon the woman did methadone and painkillers how can that be seen as a “mysterious death”?)

    I mean what do we have now? The crazy antics of former virgin-singer-dancer Britney Spears?

    I mean tell me one more public figure who made her whole life through degrading herself and who can in such a fine way describe the dark side of western culture?
    And the wierd part is that there is a need to make her death a conspiracy…

    You gotta agree that her whole life could be described as “the life and death of a postmodern priestess” 🙂

    rekyl.

    she is both revered and despised, grieved for and ignored.
