“The image of Saturn … is the shape of a man with a crow-like face and the feet of a camel, sitting upon a throne, with a spear in his right hand and a lance or dart in his left.” Picatrix Bk II, Ch 10 Para 11 (Attrell & Porecca, 2019)

I teach a history of antifascism course @ruhistorydept.bsky.social and figured I'd start an ongoing thread this semester to share some insights from course readings and recommend some great works on antifascism.

Some knot tying magic we did last night to act as an esoteric "assist" & to tie together/synergize various resistance and protection efforts currently being undertaken. Whatever it looks like for you right now in your life, stay strong, stay curious, and remember to #resit !
