spells or spells associated with beauty

play03:53

are performed by many modern day witches

play03:55

magic unfortunately doesn't work in that

play03:58

same Sensational hollywood-esque way

it's also interesting that Cosmetics are

play04:03

used heavily in the music industry I

play04:05

made a video months ago titled Beyond

play04:07

The Mask where I talked about the common

play04:09

theme of musicians wearing makeup that

play04:12

resembled gestures

play04:13

in fact this style of makeup is very

play04:15

similar to the tribal shamans of the

play04:17

Pueblo natives who would put on sacred

play04:20

clown makeup to invoke the trickster

play04:21

Spirits maybe musicians are doing the

play04:24

exact same thing on stage and in their

play04:26

music videos invoking spirits to help

play04:29

them perform and write music promising

play04:31

people a life of luxury and riches and

play04:33

in return these Spirits get permission

play04:35

to use their bodies as vessels to spread

play04:38

Godless ideologies and the philosophy of

play04:40

do what thou Wilt through their music

play04:42

it's also interesting that people that

play04:44

are a part of the goth and Emil culture

play04:46

are more prone to depression and anxiety

play04:48

or what the Bible calls the spirit of

play04:51

fear and heaviness their fashion also

play04:54

resembles the black and white gestures

play04:55

which also reminds me of Beetlejuice

play04:58

from the Tim Burton film Beetlejuice

play05:00

made in the 1980s so it's incredibly

play05:02

fascinating that makeup has its roots in
