Artist: Walter Valentini — Andromeda Text: “[T]he methods of theology were essentially those of ritual magic, its aime the incarnation of the divine force either in a material object, such as a statue, or in a living human being, the result being a state of prophetic trance. Its justification, most clearly expanded in Proclus’ little essay On the Hieratic Art, is the magical ‘Principle of Correspondence,’ the idea, first, that each part of the universe mirrors every other part, and secondly, and more important, that the whole material world is the mirror of invisible divine powers; hence, in virtue of the network of forces linking image to archetype, manipulation of the appropriate material objects brings the theorists into contact with the deities they represent.” - RT Wallis, Neoplatonism, p. 107
