This episode is about wild creation in the liminal spaces, and it’s about magical thinking and fate, and a remarkable artist witch who had to figure out who she was after the unthinkable atrocities of the second world war, and outside of a powerful man’s powerful idea about her destiny. A man who did the Babylon Working and believed she was the Fire Elemental he had summoned, and maybe in a way she was, but she was also and entirely her own self. Yes this episode is about Marjorie Cameron and Jack Parsons, and it’s about love and how we cope when we lose someone, and it’s about 1960s California and art and drugs and sex magic and becoming gods through art, and how the world changes.
