托特塔羅之VI：The Lovers——一場皇室聯姻禮成，摩爾黑人國王與白人女王牽著手。除此之外的其他元素也都成對且二元對立。世間萬物就在被顯化的一刻毫無懸念地被反駁，於是調配灰色。
托特塔羅之XIV：Art——完整了VI的故事，國王與女王合為雌雄同體，左手的火把與右手的水杯一同傾倒並互相抵銷，達至均衡卻兩敗俱傷。
融合的陰暗面是犧牲，最終導致萬物歸一。抹殺是搓揉成團的第一步，誕生是最後一步。而我卻不想。
所渴望的事情都沒有必要再記在心上。最終極的顯化就是在無「勝」亦無「負」，無「黑」亦無「白」，無「陽性」亦無「陰性」的那一刻，一切在顯化與被顯化之際，你不再存在了。
而我卻不想，導致你亦彌留。我選擇不去想得太透徹，卻又忍不住發問：當享受被虐的快感時，到底顯化的是什麼？
Thoth tarot VI: The Lovers—As the marriage ceremony between two royal families completes, the Black Moorish king and the White queen hold hands. Other elements in binary opposition also appear in pairs. Everything on earth is absolutely refuted at the moment of manifestation, hence the color gray. Thoth tarot XIV: Art—To finish the story that began in VI, the king and queen conjoin to become hermaphroditic. The torch in the left hand and the cup in the right hand tilt at the same time, neutralizing each other, and reach equilibrium but in mutual destruction.
The dark side of fusion is sacrifice, which ultimately leads to the unification of all things. Obliteration is the first step of blending and kneading; birth is the final step. But that is not something I wish for. There is no need to remember the things you desire. The ultimate manifestation is the moment when there is neither winning nor losing; neither black nor white; neither yang nor yin. The moment when everything is manifesting and manifested, you no longer exist. Because that is not something I wish for, you end up lying there, dying. I choose not to think about it too thoroughly, but I can’t help but ask: What is the pleasure of being abused manifesting?
