#(in reference to both Jinx and St. Joan)

[miraofhearts2point0]

Jinx and her Catholic symbolism means so much to me. St. Joan Of Arc, martyr and Saint, who led the French army to victory, mirrors what the role of Jinx will become in this upcoming season; perhaps she too, will become a martyr of sorts--or maybe a Saint.

Her baptism, which is the first rite Catholics take into entering the Church, she takes her first step in becoming Jinx. she washes away her Original Sin (in this instance, Powder) and becomes a Saint--Jinx.

Her surgery scene could even be read as Catholic symbolism. she receives the Eucharist, the Body of Christ, in the form of Shimmer; Jinx is saved by a drug that gives her a second chance, just like what was done at the Last Supper when Jesus said: "This is my body."

Her full Confirmation (another rite in the Catholic Church) is taking on the role of Jinx, and in accepting that role, she becomes a martyr; or if you want to go further, a Christ-like figure due to her near-death experience and subsequential raising from the dead.

The crow, a traditional symbol of death, is replaced with doves, a symbol of hope. in killing her fear by killing the crow, she becomes a symbol herself.

Silco was a horrible person and an even worse influence on her, but he was right about one thing: Jinx is perfect.
