“The God Who Riots: Taking Back the Radical Jesus” by Damon Garcia

Magick Matters

🕵️🐷🕵️ zero-day🕵️🐷🕵️ "For thousands of years, religious messages have been used to either uphold the status quo or upend it.

Once you’ve reached the bottom of the cup, the tea leaves that remain will take the form of shapes and symbols that can give you guidance, spark your intuition, and even give you a hint of the future.
