The First Blue Entity, of course, is "Mustang" (aka Blucifer), the massive horse by the airport with glowing red eyes, public art proposed for the opening of Denver International Airport by artist Luis Jiménez. There is also “I See What You Mean” (aka the Big Blue Bear), constructed by artist Lawrence Argent and installed in 2005 outside the Colorado Convention Center.
Much is unknown about Baa'al, and our story offered a Q&A on the Third Blue Entity's background, noting that "the official Buckley website gives a joking nod to notions of top-secret spy missions or alien spacecraft contained within. The truth, dear reader, is far stranger." And so were many responses posted on the Westword Facebook page. Says Taylor:
Finally. I was hoping for a third giant blue animal. Wish it was a bighorn sheep, though.Responds Richard:
Baal was an ancient Canaanite-Phoenician deity and false idol. WTF is going on with Colorado?Offers Jessica:
Baa'al is definitely going to increase the Illuminati-themed tourism here in Denver.Notes Ken:
There is "Mustang" (i.e. Blucifer), the massive horse by the airport with glowing red eyes, constructed by Luis Jiménez in 2008. Along with its appearance, the tragic death of Jiménez when part of the unfinished sculpture fell on him in the studio led to the myth and moniker of “Blucifer.” For the record, the family of the late Jiménez dislikes the nickname and its demonic associations.Adds Annette:
Praying life, prosperous people and thriving families for Colorado, not cursing with demonic altars. I agree with Ken. In honor of the artist, the mustang is fierce but not meant to be demonic.Explains Telesha:
Portals usually open with a Trinity, hence the father, son and Holy Spirit. We are the light! We need to start knowing our dominion. We have a portal opener, too. The collective consciousness for good has already been activated. The powers that be have already had their chance to make all of us turn to the dark side. The rougher it gets, the more light turns on. They don’t win the scenario.Replies Missy:
We are the highest of all beings on earth, we need to start acting like it instead of acting like a bunch of damsels in distress who need God to save them. God already saved us. It’s our worldly beings that make us think we aren't loved by God and he’s some outwardly thing that we have to fight to have a relationship with, when we’re actually a piece of God, which makes us the rulers of earth and not these negative low vibrational currencies. Stop giving our power away. If this is the third, it is complete.
Baal is definitely a demon that tricked humans into worshipping him. The demonic love child sacrifice. It is their way of trying to "hurt" God, by hurting the most innocent. Plato spoke of/denounced the baby sacrifices done by the Phoenecians, I believe it was to Baal.Replies Delbert:
I used to be a witch. Extremely close to being a theological satanist. I was healed by Jesus and pulled from the dark about a year ago. The spiritual war is real.
Satanic monuments need to be removed. God will remove them Himself if they refuse to do it.Counters Ayanna:
You do know that there are a bunch of !d!ots out there who now believe that this is true and don't realize this article was satire.Adds Ava:
I very much enjoyed your article on Baa’al. It’s a fun read and I appreciated how you weave Denver’s history with myth. An excellent example of modern Magical Loci. My partner jokingly suggested we create the final two sculptures to “complete the circle” and usher in an new era of darkness and prosperity.Concludes Pilar:
Thank you for making Denver feel more magical. I hope to see more article like this. Hail to the ancient ones.
What a weirdly fun article that I was not expecting. Thanks, author Ryan Clapp.We, too, thought that Ryan Clapp's flight of fancy was a fun way to start the new year. What did you think when you first read it? Do you wish Baa'al was real? Post a comment or share your thoughts at [email protected].
