Making this video was a really incredible experience. A huge thanks to the artist behind Angelarium, Peter Mohrbacher, for helping us with the thumbnail! I hope you all enjoy this strange, experimental narrative experience, it really isn't like many of the topics we've covered in the past. We also made an entire SECOND video about Angelarium too, which we posted over on Nebula! To watch it, pick up the CuriosityStream/Nebula bundle deal, which you get cheaper than any other streaming service right here: curiositystream.com/talefoundry Thanks everyone so much for watching, it really means a lot that we can cover these bizarre topics and you're all here for it.

I adore the art and writing of peter mohrbacher, he has such a surreal yet distinct take on various aspects of Jewish Mythology. Speaking of which, is there any plans to cover Jewish folklore in some regard similar to how you covered Slavic and Celtic mythology? There is an absolute breadbasket of stories both unique and familiar and I think they are often looked over due to christian normative perspectives believing them to just be the stories from the bible, etc. Thanks for the lovely video as always!

Hmm, I haven't seen the video yet and I haven't read Angelarium either, but I *do* love angelic eldritch horror. You remember Wheels? I mean that one drawing of the Thrones angel. I really did love it. Not because it was comforting, but because it was really really cool. An incomprehensible servant of your God, monstrous and uncaring. Blinding in its light and form. What do others of its kind look like? Why was it made to be as it was? Brightness can be comforting, but it can be harsh like staring into the sun. Unlike traditional eldritch horror with slimy, grimy, dark creatures, this one was the opposite. Angelic horror is really a favourite of mine. Maybe I'll like Angelarium too

I found the Angelarium a few years ago myself. Fell in love with the paintings and then discovered the story. Finding the beauty in knowing that you can't, and don't need to, understand everything. That comprehending the divine is largely not important, however unavoidable. I've heard it described as 'the opposite of Lovecraft' and I think that's fitting. The universe is beyond us, but we're still a part of it. And that's inherently beautiful.

I would like to caution you on how you regard the "early tellings of the bible". There is a lot more to it, and those texts aren't used regularly in bible translation. The Masoric text, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the Pentateuch (the Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament used by many Jews in the Greek period) are used regularly. And we can't forget about the hundreds of other complete and partial manuscripts that exist and are not used simply because there aren't enough differences between them to make it worth it to compare.

This Angelarium book seems to cover much of that Process to his Ascension, creative liberties are obviously taken and its breath takingly imaginative, its like another version of the Divine Comedy, the half were dante is shown the circles of heaven but with a more Judaic perspective.

Metatron was one of the first angels, created to be the link between mankind and the divine. In Talmud and Targum, Metatron has an earthly incarnation as Enoch. Upon Enoch’s death and arrival in Heaven, (whilst still human), he was transformed into a spirit of fire, with 36 pairs of wings and innumerable eyes. I have a cool picture of him on the back of my Mars Volta hoody. Metatron is the tallest angel in Heaven. His height is said to equal the breadth of the whole earth. According to Eisenmenger, God gives to Metatron the names of all the souls to be taken, each day. Metatron gives these names to Gabriel and Samael, who then go and do the job of actually collecting those souls. It is said Metatron was the one who stayed Abraham’s hand at the point of Isaac’s sacrifice. He is also said to have lead the Israelites through the wilderness after their Exodus from Egypt. Metatron was the first to announce that God was planning to destroy the Earth by flood.

@danielsmithiv1279 2 жыл бұрын

That's because true spirituality isn't religious. God was never about religion. However, most people will fail to understand this. In the beginning, when the Lord created Adam and Eve, he said, "Be fruitful, multiply, and replenish the earth and subdue it..." He told them to have dominion over the earth. When God made mankind, He didn't give them a religion. He gave them an ethereal Kingdom. God doesn't seek the religious. He searches for those who are willing to worship Him in spirit and truth. He wants those to come back into His holy kingdom -- not a religious institution or organization. Again, most people will fail to comprehend this.

As interesting as this was, my personal worldview is effectively fundamentally incompatible with works like this as well as Cosmic Horror. I do not see fear in that which I don't understand, nor acceptance. I only see opportunity. I do like finding things that I don't understand, not just because they can be inherently beautiful, but because they offer an opportunity to gain understanding of something new. To say that something is "unknowable" or "beyond understanding" to me simply means that there are layers of abstraction between what I already know, and that which is in front of me, and that it should be able to hold my attention for quite a while.

I am a discord role player and I used one of the angels from the Angelarium as a face claim and I gotta say, it gives good inspiration and the art is awesome

This is why I wanna be a writer but also an artist because I want to explain the feels that can't easily be talked about But I'm not good enough to write like that or draw anything that complex so I just make little OCS and feel awe when I listen to stuff like this or music that makes me think or art that move me so

Holy molly, peace and blessings be upon you, that was amazing. I really love when tale foundry hits on theology; I wonder what it would be like if they made a vid on the bible, of course I recognize what an undertaking that would be

Wow, thanks for this, as I have the Angelarium oracle card deck, which I came across a couple of years ago, I just loved the artwork, simply beautiful and takes you away to another world. Think I will purchase a copy of the book of Emanations. Namaste, love & light!

I actually have the Angelarium: Oracle of Emanations oracle card deck. I don't really use oracle cards as opposed to the tarot cards I'm more familiar with, but sometimes I just take out the deck and thumb through the cards, entranced by the depictions of the angels. It's comforting how strange they are.

You've popped up in my feed a couple times recently and I've passed you up (although it was hard because the art style on the title card and in your videos is admittedly eye candy to begin with) but after watching just this one video, I can instantly say "Sign me up buttercup." Consider me subbed, and consider me officially on a completely unadulterated, unhealthy and unhinged KZfaq binge that WILL be at least a week long considering the amount of your content. Lol Glad to be on board!

The way you've described this book, it seems to, beyond the literal story of Enoch, describe the process of reaching Realization with the "steps" personified in the form of angels.

Seriously check out the artwork if you haven't. It's incredible Surrealism. Even if you don't like Surrealism it's just incredibly well done. From color, detail and lighting to creating landscapes with a sense of depth and scale to the depiction and deconstruction of the human form.

Had to watch this a second time because your soothing voice lulled me into sleep 😆. But in seriousness, the art and the story behind it all is beautifully represented here. I'd first heard of Angelarium thru Foolish Fish here on KZfaq, and since then the images of the angels have never been far from my mind.

This whole tale tickles at my intuition and my love of myths. At first blush, this feels like it could be a tale of the divine becoming material, of an immortal soul descending the Tree of Life into a state of mortality, of living and of dying, and yet remaining a reflection of its divine origin. Or perhaps the reverse could be just as true? Perhaps the divine is rooted in the material, an emanation of the universe the same as we? Are we a reflection of the divine, or is the divine a reflection of ourselves? I must read this book. I may not fully understand it, that may not be its intended purpose, but it will likely give me much to contemplate. Thank you for the introduction.

That's interesting.. how this fantasy book took so much elements from the Kabbalah, including the tree of life, the Sephiroth, and the spiritual meditation journey of the Jewish mysticism. Also as a Hebrew speaker, it was fun hearing the pronunciation of the Sephiroths and other Hebrew words

@Schadrach42 2 жыл бұрын

Another to take lots of influence from Kabbalah, although in a completely different direction, is UNSONG by Scott Alexander. Short description of the premise is that the early NASA program accidentally broke the sky, and now the laws of physics are slowly decaying and there are angels, demons and magic running around. There are two forms of magic humans can use - one functions by speaking divine Names that do various things and the other is essentially putting on a show and convincing the universe that what you are doing is magical and should yield the result you want. One very noteworthy thing is that UNSONG is an absolute masterclass of foreshadowing upon foreshadowing, most of which is incomprehensible without considering the approach the characters in the setting take to things like language, gematria, nominative determinism, etc. Once you are looking at the text through the right lens, however, you end up realizing things like the 4th sentence of Chapter 1 "My name is Aaron Smith-Teller and I am 22 years old." foreshadow both the arc Aaron's plot follows and how the story ends.
