Apocalypse	Aesthetic	Alchemy

War	Destruction	Correspondence
Famine	Pestilence	Contagion
Death	Works Righteousness	Parody

In the Book of Revelation, the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse aren’t merely ciphers for literal conquest, war, famine & death, they are the metaphysical personification of those concepts & represent beings, forces, & institutions which are all deeply invested in who & what exercises control, authority, & presence with respect to Monarchial Dominion in, through, over, & around the very fabric of reality itself.  

Conquest presents itself/manifests itself as that which glories in the rise & fall of moral empire &  imperial structures (Principles of Faith & Practice).  Its Aesthetic (defining characteristic) is the rise & fall of moral &/or literal empire/government.    It expresses itself in Black Magick/Sorcery via the the principle of parasitism insofar as it grafts, bonds, joins, unites, &/or merges or seeks to merge or attach itself to one or more targets in order to refine & conquer them. (Daniel 7)

War presents itself/manifests itself as that which glories in  conflict/conflict resolution that more often than not theologically, philosophically, ethically &/or philosophically destroys either to pave the way for the new imperial order &/or to glory in destruction for its own sake.   War seeks to strategically deconstruct/destroy the correspondence/relationships relative to the simultaneous moral unity & unanimity of the created order & ultimately the Moral Imago Dei itself.    In its literal mode, it centers on struggle for power between 2 or more individuals, ecclesiastical institutions, &/or governments. (Hosea 4:6)

Its aesthetic (defining characteristic) centers on destruction.  It expresses itself in Black Majick/Sorcery via the principle of contagion, insofar as it seeks to erode &/or destroy the correspondence between truth & falsity, righteousness & sin/iniquity, reality & unreality in general,  & that which is & that which ought to be in particular.

Famine presents/manifests itself as that which glories in moral & material gluttony and material & moral poverty resulting in moral sickness/infirmity.  Its aesthetic (defining characteristic) is pestilence.      The Bible describes apostasy as the road to destruction plagued with a lack of morally righteous theological, philosophical, & moral/ethical knowledge.   (Hosea 9:6)

Death, like Apostasy, encompasses all of these evils & centers on works righteousness.  Its aesthetic, works righteousness, kills.  Works righteousness is sorcery’s answer to  the Gospel of Grace & Faith.   In sorcery/Satanic witchcraft the Enemy seeks to parody what it perceives as a or even 

the source of righteousness & redemption via its reward system.  (Romans 9:30 - 33)
