Clear Crystal Icon Set June 2011 Last Update: 07.30.12. These icons can be used to replace the default 'system' icons for folders, devices, toolbar items, Finder sidebar items, and others. I designed the icons for use with Crystal Black, but tried to make them compatible with the default Aqua theme.

Is concerned with the body as the vehicle of the Spirit, and with the basic instincts, especially sexual reproduction, which can lead to the reproduction of more physical bodies. It is theref ore a Path in which the intellect plays little part, and those who operate more or less exclusively in the sphere of the intell ect, or who don’t like consideri ng the facts of physi cal life and the chemical and biolog ical factors of their own being in E arth, may find it repellant.The biological and physical roots of our lives is one of the things which one faces on the 29. The titl e of the Pat h is Rule r of Flux and Reflux, Chil d of the Sons of the Mighty.

The traditi onal design shows a crayfi sh or lobster emerging from a stream or pond onto a path leading between two towers into a wild range of hills lit by the light of the Full Moon. On either side of the path are a dog and a wolf.

Drops of blood fall from the Moon. The card is a composite symbol of the processes of physical evolution, the primitive amphibian emergin g from water onto land and beginnin g a long evolutionar y journey. The tower s represe nt the opposi te poles of manife station, and the dog and the wolf show the wild and domesticated version s of a single spe cies.

The dog is an animal sacred to Hekat e, Goddess of the Moon, and the primitive sexua l side of the card is apparent consider ing that to the Greeks, the sound of a dog howlin g at the Moon was the apotheosis of sexuality. The blood dripping from the Moon is a re minder of “Nature red in tooth and claw.” In some designs, the drops of blood take the form of Y ods, signifying spermatozoa.

The Moon is associated with the great cyclic movements of tides, and also with the growth of vegetation and the menstr ual cycles of women. This cycli c activity no doubt accounts for the title of the Trump, Rul er of Flux and Reflux. The alternative title, Child of the S ons of the Mighty, signifies the primi tive Elemental aspects of the path, the Elemental Kingdoms being “creations of the created,” that is, creations of the Sons of God rather than of God Himself. The name of the Key to the Path, the Hebrew letter. Is “th e Back of th e Hea d.” Th is attribution is strongly suggested by the shape of the letter, which is like the back of the skull, with the top of the spinal colum n attached. The spina l cord is the center for numerous aut omatic respo nses and reflexes; the hindbrain contains the medulla oblongata, through which pass nerve fiber tracts uniting the spinal cord and brain, and the cerebellum, which receives impulses from muscles, tendons and joints via the spinal tracts, and thereby regulates po sture.

The intimate connection of the back of the head with the physical coordination of the body echoes the description of the P ath in the Y etziratic Text: the Corporeal Intelligence. The astrological significance of this Path has to do with the sign and constellation of Pisces, the Fish. In the heavens, the two fish of the constellation are spaced quite widely apart, and are joined by a long ribbon or stri ng, like an umbilical cord. At one level of interpr etation this coul d be taken to be the individuality and personality linked together in the worl d of form. Early on, individuality is held captive in form by the personality, but as one’s personal evolution within a given life or from life to life via incarnation progresses, the situation is reversed, so that the personality comes to be held under the control of the individuality. This is the long-term resu lt of the principle of Flux and Ref lux, the ebb and flow of the direction of growth of the spirit’s vehicles into and out of form. The following poem, a slightly paraphrased adaptation from Dion Fortune’s novels.

gives a good idea of the essential meaning of this card: I am She Who, ere the Earth was formed, Was Rhea, Binah, Ge. I am that soundless, boundless, bitter Sea Out of Whose Deeps life wells eternally. Astarte, Aphrodite, Ashtoreth, Giver of life and bringer-in of death; Hera in Heaven, on Earth, Persephone; Kali and Black Isis, dancing on Their hills of skulls, Mikhail and Ezeli, Black Mary and Athena, Battling demons in the sky, Star-flecked Nuit, o’er-arching all the world, Diana of the Ways, and Hekate: All these am I, all are found in Me. The hour of the high full Moon draw near; I hear the invoking words, hear and appear: ShaDdaI EL ChaI, Kether, and Rhea, Binah, Ge, And ELITh, self-creating Creation In Aspects three, I come unto the one who calleth Me. O Isis Veiled and Rhea, Binah, Ge, Lead us to the Well of Memory, The Well-Head where the pale white cypress grows, By secret twilight paths that no man knows, The shadowy path dividing into three – Diana of the Ways, and Hekate, Selene of the Moon, and Persephone, Mother Mary, Lilith, and Tsou-Mou, Kali-Shiva-Chandi-Durga, Parvati, And the Lord of Magick, Djehuti, Thrice-Great Hermes, Psychopompos And Divine Hermaphrodite. The high full Moon at the zenith shines clear!

O hear the invoking words, hear and appear! ShaDdaI EL ChaI, Kether, and Rhea, Binah, Ge!. Sink down, sink down, sink deeper and sink deep, Into eternal and primordial sleep. Sink down, forget, be still and draw apart Into the Inner Earth’s Most Secret Heart.

Drink of the Waters of Persephone, The Secret Well beside the Sacred Tree. I am that secret Queen, Persephone. All Tides are Mine, and answer unto Me. Tides of the Airs, Tides of the Inner Earth, The secret, silent Tides of Death and birth: Tides of men’s souls, and dreams, and destiny – Isis Veiled, and R hea, Binah, Ge – ELITh, self-creating Creation In Aspects three.

I am that Star that rises from the Twilight Sea, Bringing men dreams that rule their destiny. I bring the Moon-Tides to the souls of men, The Tides that flow and ebb and flow again, That flow and ebb and flow alternately: These are My Secret, these belong to Me. I am eternal Woman, I am S he – The Tides of all men’s souls belong to Me. The Tides that flow and ebb and flow again, The secret, silent Tides that govern men: These are My Secret, these belong to Me.

Out of My Hands he takes his destiny, The touch of My Hands bestows serenity. These are the Moon-Tides, these belong to Me. Durga in Heaven, on Earth, Persephone, Diana of the Ways, and Liberty, Athena-Medusa, Aphrodite from the Sea.

A collection of useful Dashboard widgets. ShapeShifter themes for Mac OS X 10.4 ('Leopard') and earlier. Some lovely designs for your Mac desktop. Free software utilities for text editing and optimizing the Apple Mail database. Alert styles for the Growl notification system, and a few other goodies.

All The Way From Mars. Over the years, the designers and programmers here on Mars have come up with a slew of cool ideas, designs, and software.

What started out as intrigue about the possibilities of changing the look and feel of the Mac OS X interface, 'Aqua,' turned into a raging passion. At the same time, our experience in web design and development made working on Dashboard Widgets and other HTML-based desktop apps a logical endeavor. While developing one theme in particular — then known simply as 'Crystal Clear' — we discovered a way to incorporate transparency into Mac windows. The technique involved use of a small Cocoa plugin called 'SetAlphaValue.' The use of this plugin gradually led us up the rather steep learning curve for the main software architecture behind Mac applications: Cocoa.

While learning Cocoa, we've also dabbled a bit in AppleScript, Unix shell scripts, and other languages. And this work produced some little apps as well. Meanwhile, what started out as a design challenge did not diminish.

Some Martians turned their talents to icon design, and others to developing images for decorating the desktop. What none of us anticipated was the strain that working with such teeny-tiny graphics would place on our eyes.

Martians have particularly keen vision, but the strength lies mostly in identifying distant objects — such as Earth. By contrast, working on icons, buttons, and other widgets that can tweak the Mac interface requires pixel-level attention. Although design tools easily enable one to zoom in on such objects, one still needs to be able to take in the whole object at actual size. We can do it, but boy do we get headaches! Most of the downloads on the MarsThemes website can be used freely, but our two latest (and most complex) software tools — CrystalClear Interface and Crystal Black — require a license after the trial period.

If you're a Martian, we might consider giving you a discounted license. But you will have to prove your birth origins.:-) Clear Crystal Icon Set Clear Crystal Icon Set June 2011 Last Update: 07.30.12 These icons can be used to replace the default 'system' icons for folders, devices, toolbar items, Finder sidebar items, and others. I designed the icons for use with Crystal Black, but tried to make them compatible with the default Aqua theme. They'll look best with dark backgrounds, but light backgrounds will work too. The November 2011 release includes a small application for installing and uninstalling the Clear Crystal icons for users who don’t have icon-management software such as CandyBar. The application also manages a substantial set of system icons that CandyBar doesn’t, most of which are new to the set. Pattern for machine quilting.

The July 2012 update adds five more sidebar icons for Lion/Mountain Lion. The disk image download includes the application, a Read Me file, an iContainer for Candybar users, and a browsable set of folders containing all the icon files. For more information about the Clear Crystal icons, have a look at the article that introduced them: 'Introducing “Clear Crystal” System Icons for Mac OS X' Download Crystal Albook: Document Icons Crystal Docs January 2010 Last Update: v.1.0, 01.22.10 This is a set of 74 document icons intended to complement CrystalClear Interface and the set of Crystal Albook system and application icons I released in 2007. The set covers most of the document types used by Apple's applications as well as a limited set of document types for third-party applications. These icons are included as part of CrystalClear Interface and can be installed/uninstalled within that application. Here, you can download them separately and install using CandyBar.

A brief article with more images is available on my blog. Download Crystal Albook: System Icons Crystal Albook Icons April 2007 Last Update: v.1.0, 04.29.07 The Crystal Albook icons were designed to match the look of the Crystal Clear ShapeShifter theme. The set includes all the Mac system icons, as well as 49 application icons. Crystal Albook is based on Laurent Baumann's excellent Albook icons, which is generously released under the Creative Commons license.

The Crystal Albook series incorporates transparency to accompany the Crystal Clear theme and its variants. It is available as iContainers for Candybar and as individual icon files for Mac OS X (in ICNS and PNG formats). Download DeStyl Icons DeStyl Icon Set May 2005 In early 2005, I fell in love with Gerrit Vanoppen's deSTYL icons (which don't seem to be available to download anywhere now). (Note: Vanoppen's icons were themselves inspired by the beautiful Box series by Grayhouse.) I wasn't craxy about the deSTYL application icons, however, so decided to put to.
