A side step: A {practical?} analogy..."Every so often Shatner would ride his Suzuki Titan 500 motorcycle in the desert near Palmdale, in the area between the San Gabriel mountain and Edwards Air Force base...One day, he was riding through the desert with four friends when his bike hit a hole and he was thrown off. The heavy bike fell on top of him, striking his head, and he lost consciousness for a short time. Oddly, the other bikers saw none of this. They said later, that the fourth figure on the bike behind them, which they assumed was Shatner, was never out of their sight. The identity of this rider has never been determined. Just as he was coming to, Shatner felt and heard something strange. He later described it as 'like when you have a nightmare and you feel something crawling over your body and wrestling with you'. Whatever the 'shadowy phantom' was, Shatner immediately felt better, as if he were infused with fresh energy. He got up, righted his motorcycle, and tried to start it. But the machine would not start...Suddenly his bike seemed to acquire a mind of its own. He could push it only in one direction - it was as if an unseen force was directing it. On the horizon, directly in front of him, he kept seeing a mysterious dark figure waving him on. Seeing the figure renewed his vigour to push on...He almost certainly would have died had he not been guided by the UNknown presence." [From the book 'Captain Quirk' by D. Hauck. All emphasis, this readers].

And/or: ''The ka has often been called the wraith or double {'pelican'?}, that is, an exact replica of the living person. Both the German author Goethe and the English poet Shelley were said to have seen their own wraiths {'shadow'?} appearing to them before death. The Austrian composer Mozart was visited by a shadowy figure who ordered him to compose a Requiem and frequently came to check on the composition's progress. The music was completed just in time to be played at Mozart's funeral.'' [Page 236 'Dreams of Isis: A Woman's Spiritual Sojourn' / N. Ellis].

The Welsh poets ''Weird''?

A further head scratch and/or change of pace {i.e.,as seen from a different 'angle'}: The words ''stranger'' and ''strange'' - from the above two examples - in relation to...

"The siren heralds a friend - the bee a stranger."

''Truth is stranger than fiction.''

"Wisdom is a flower from which the bee its honey makes and the spider poison, each according to its own nature." [Chapter 2, 'Alchemists Handbook' by F. Albertus]. Link to the word ''chakra'' and/or ''karma''.

"One of the titles of Zeus was 'Melissaios,' the Bee Man. It is said he had a 'son' by a nymph, who afraid of Hera's wrath, had the 'babe' placed in a wood, where Zeus caused him to be fed by bees. The shepherd Phagros, son of Apollo and the same nymph, found the child and gave him the name Meliteus. He became a great hero, and founded a town which he called Melita, the honey - town." [Same chapter, same book]. 'Food' for thought?

"Other chapters of the Quran are called the ''Ant'' and the ''Spider,'' but the Bee is the only animal whom Muhammed says is addressed by the 'Lord' himself.''

Question. Which of the above represents lower/higher and why?

"Another writer, Ibn Magih, relates that the Prophet said: Honey is a remedy for every illness, and the Quran is a remedy for all illnesses of the mind, therefore i recommend to you both remedies, the Quran and honey." [Chapter 6, 'The Sacred Bee'. Mentioned elsewhere].

"The fact that Plutarch, along with numerous others, writes of the close relationship between Dionysus and Apollo at Delphi suggests an intimacy and affinity between the two gods, one that was well known to antiquity. Yet, their radical differences and polarity is also well recognized. Further, the 'mythologems' which constitute the mythic history of Dionysus and Apollo are quite diverse and come from numerous and varied sources. These sources frequently express a 'conflict' between the two gods, particularly in terms of the realms that each of them represent. This conflict may be expressed as one between the celestial Apollo [1.e.,above and/or 'dry'] and the chthonic Dionysus [i.e., below and/or 'wet']. Between them stands the 'singer' Orpheus, whose human task is to establish a necessary harmony between them." [Chapter entitled The Orphic Mystery: Harmony and Mediation, from the book 'Alexandria'. Vol One, by D. Fideler].

"...the opening of the knowledge of the masculine and feminine potencies necessary unto the manifestation of all things." Potency in relation to polarity?

"The six 'Meditations' and accompanying selections from the 'Objections and Replies' provide a definitive statement of what Descartes intended as the foundations of his whole philosophy. His project was to resolve the epistemological questions brought about by the prevailing scepticism of his age: to build, from the basis of self awareness [Cogito, ergo sum], through the notion of a 'benevolent god', to a systematic and novel approach to metaphysics, and to construct a secure starting point for science." [Back cover....'Meditations and other Metaphysical Writings' by Rene Descartes].

Exercise {ie., apply the above to 'see' a possible connection}: "There; at Abu Ruash; the pyramid of {Djed}efre was built on top of a rocky outcrop that in antiquity would have been clearly visible {'horizon' link?} from Heliopolis. As a matter of fact - sunset at the winter solstice." [Page 29 'Imhotep the African: Architect of the Cosmos' / R. Bauval].

Refresher: The end of something {dark?} begins the process {light?} of something else - RELATIVE to a 'learning curve' {arc}?

REFRESHER: "Your house of many mansions is not built by hands. It is situated within yourself and is an essential and permanent part of you. It is your citadel. Picture yourself standing within its portals and take conscious possession of your property." [From the book 'The Silent Road' by W. T. Pole].

Fortress?

As seen from a different perspective: "Abraham was a seeker. A spiritual seeker. He was looking for truth...Mount Moriah was a sacred place even before the story of Abraham's 'sacrifice' of a ram {Aries?} on top of that rocky outcrop...David's greatest act - once Jerusalem was established - was to buy a piece of land within the land of Moriah...On top of which was built the first temple...The name 'Jerusalem' and 'Moriah' are connected to the word ''foundation''...." Enlarged elsewhere.

''The Foundation Stone is the name of the rock at the center of the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem. It is also known as the Pierced Stone because it has a small hole in the S/E corner that enters a cavern beneath the rock...Some say it is the most holy spot in Jerusalem." ['Wiki'].

''Wounded''?

'Mountain' {top of.} in relation to 'cave' as a means...? Enlarged throughout.

Try ''lance'' / ''pierced'' / S/E corner - for that universal connection - before those bigger questions are asked.

And/or: ''RELATIVE'' in relation to: "The theories of space and time we discuss in this book may well - in fact, probably will - turn out to be approximations to an as yet undiscovered deeper theory. Perhaps we should not be too surprised that nature sometimes appears counterintuitive to a tribe of observers, carbon based ape descendants roaming around on the surface of a rocky world orbiting an unremarkable middle-aged star at the outer edge of the Milky Way galaxy. Science is a discipline that celebrates uncertainty, and recognizing this is the key to its success. Galileo Galilei was born twenty years after Copernicus proposed his sun-centered model of the universe, and he thought very deeply about the meaning of motion. His intuition probably would have been the same as ours. The earth seems to us as though it is standing still, although the evidence from the motion of the planets across the sky points very strongly to the fact that it is not. Galileo's great insight was to draw a profound conclusion from this paradox. It feels like we are standing still, even though we know we are moving in orbit around the sun, because there is no way, not even in principle, of deciding what is standing still and what is moving. In other words, it only ever makes sense to speak of motion relative to something else. This is an incredibly important idea. It might seem obvious in some sense, but to fully appreciate its content requires some thought." [ Chapter entitled 'Space and Time' from the book 'Why Does E=Mc2?' / B. Cox and J. Forshaw].

Apply that thought to understand ''Counterintuitive'' in relation {relative?} to the Geocentric principle. As a means...? IF ONLY in defining a mind set.

As {one} example: "Sirius is sometimes called the 'Sun behind the sun', indicating that while the star we call the Sun is related to our physical center of Self in our Solar Plexus and the expression of our Selves within the physical earth, Sirius represents a more hidden center." ['Red Tree, White Tree']. Try ''center''.

Then ''static/dynamic''.

From a different perspective: "Rest implies Activity, and Activity implies Rest. Behind all activity there is a static background. Siva represents the static aspect of Reality and Sakti the moving aspect. The two, as they are in themselves, are one." [Page 24, 'The Serpent Power' / J. Woodroffe].

Analogy?: ''The terms 'stopping' and 'seeing' basically cannot be seperated. They mean concentration and insight.'' [Page 21 'The Secret of the Golden Flower' / T. Cleary].

Side note: ''Failure does not matter in life to a progressive person; even a thousand failures do not matter. He keeps success before his view, and success is his, even after a 1000 failures. The greatest pity is when life comes to a standstill and does not move any further. A sensible person prefers death to such a life.'' Signed Muhammed Ali - peace - 1971. {'Pawn Stars' / S14 EP11].

As a working {hypothetical?} example: ''In closing the introduction of this study of zodiacal signs we should ask the reader to remember that these studies will consider the zodiac as a fundamental factor in astrological interpretation; as an actual 'field' {i.e., EGYPTIAN equivalent = ''running the fields''?} of structuring energies surrounding and pervading the earth and all its inhabitants. We shall see zodiacal signs as definite types of energies {as an example}...the Sun, when passing through a zodiacal 'sign', acts in a way, any other planet acts. It is merely the central planet, the most powerful agent acting upon the electromagnetic field of the Earth. Thus when the sun is at 'birth' in {say, Taurus}, the organic functions represented in any organism by Taurus can be considered as those receiving the largest share of vital energy and commanding the native's strongest powers of attention. The 'Taurus' function is shown to be the central function of the organism - and NOTHING more.'' [Page 15 'The Zodiac and the Universal Matrix' / Dane Rudhyar].

And/or: ''....On this battlefield {'struggle' / 'duality' link} previously unacknowledged parts of oneself demand to be recognised - demand 'a place in the sun'....." [Page 15 'The Lover and the Serpent' / Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee].

All as a means....?

Yet another: Different time; different place {in 'story' form}: "You see Arthur, the most telling facts about opposites is that, to remain opposites, they must never come into merging contact with one another, least they lose their identity, and become neutral {Hippo/Croc/Oryx?}. When a force is united with its antithesis, there is a cancellation of all individual force - a chaotic redistribution for both - unity, yes, but no real movement. Neutrality, you see, is a state of non-motion, neither forward nor back. Only imbalance of one polarity or the other produces movement, in the direction of the weaker force {'croc'? and/or 'weak legs'?} - in the direction which most needs work. This teaching tool, the Druidic colleges have called: Constructive Imbalance. In contrast, when a force is paired with a like force {'hippo'? and/or 'strong legs'?}, there is strength in unity of a like kind, and growth results....You see, the societies of mankind are also subject to the grand division of two kinds: 1). Those who are as yet ignorant or unaccepting of the truth of re-birth, and so live lives of spiritual confinement and slow awakening; subject to the physical illusions of the world, but unable to see through them, and 2}. Those who have gained through time the spiritual maturity to dispense the illusions of the physical world, and live at once in both worlds {hippo/croc?} - while growing into 'The Beyond' {'glass' link?}…." [Page 215 'The 21 Lessons of Merlyn: A Study in Druid Magic and Lore' / Douglas Monroe].

Try ''simultaneous'' in relation to the sentence in italics.

And/or: {from a different perspective?}: " The Sanskrit name for 'superconsciousness' is Satta. It means literally, ''illumination material''. Its alchemical symbol is Mercury: the upper part of this symbol is a crescent, emblem of the Moon. The central part is a circle, representing the sun. The lower part is the cross of the four elements. The sun corresponds to what we have been calling Self-consciousness, and the moon to the subconscious. Hence the Mercury symbol signifies the raising of the powers of the subconscious ABOVE those of Self-consciousness. This is what happens when we become channels of 'superconsciousness'….HENCE: Mercury alone, among the planetary symbols, combines all three elements. The crescent symbol of subconsciousness is uppermost, the circle representing superconsciousness is now in the middle, and the 'cross' of self-consciousness is at the bottom. Thus Mercury represents the equilibrium of all three planes of consciousness. Do not understand that the placing of the crescent symbol at the top means that the subconsciousness has been made the superior term. What is meant is that the subconscious has been purified and RAISED so that it becomes the grail to receive the wine of life - the inspiration of spiritual wisdom....Rightly understood, the Mercury sign is one of the most enlightening symbols...."

Eureka moments do the same. Apply same to : "The cup markings, which appear to be universal in these Scandinavian sites and which are found occasionally on the walls and even roofs of stone built graves have long been a problem. The idea that they were libation cups, for offering food to the gods, cannot always be accepted on account of their position. Many, of course, in Scotland were used for the offering of milk to the 'Little People', until quite recent times and may be still. However the view is now held widely that many more were intended to represent symbols of a 'goddess' and are to be compared with the 'yoni' and 'lingam' of India...." [Page 87 'GogMagog' / T.

Side step: "In Greek thought 'Apollo' was the Logos or Word, the source of the worlds harmony, 'weaving' in eternal song all that is and will be. The most sacred thing at Delphi was the omphalos 'stone',[i.e.,meaning 'navel'], that marked the sacred center of the world and the place where all the worlds met. This 'stone' was covered with a net, 'mathematically' generated by the numbers of the 'gods' names. This 'net' depicted the world's soul. It 'caught' the thoughts or ideas of the great Cosmic 'mind' and pulled them into the material world. We each have a sacred 'center' like this in our body." [Chapter 21, 'The Sacred History'].

And / or..."The 'net' was a symbol of what, even today we call the net of meridians and parallels. The omphalos of Delphi was similar to the object which represented the god Amon in Thebes, the "navel" of Egypt. [Page 349, 'Secrets of the Great Pyramid']. Latitude/ Longitude?

Try ''labyrinth''.

'On Having No Head: Zen and the Rediscovery of the Obvious' / D. E. Harding.

Analogy of same; but now with different KEYS..."There is a third way, and that is the approach to the center - the center of the spiral. That is, to the mid point of the web of creation. Here may be found a very ancient feminine symbol in the spider who spins and designs and builds the web of manifestation. The symbol is also found in Rosicrucian diagrams. She represents in other symbolic formulations the Three Sisters, the Fates, spinning, weaving and cutting the thread of life. Whoever becomes a 'victim' of the Spider is, when bound and eaten by her, transformed. She is also the sleeping Lady Venus who, if awakened, gives birth to a 'King'. Whoever has found her secret door is translated from questing querent into guardian of her Mysteries. In other words, a change of function, or a transformation, takes place." [Chapter 6, 'The Rose Cross and the Goddess: The Quest for the Eternal Feminine Principle ' by G. Knight].

Side note:  "The ancient ones of early eastern Christianity taught that, in relation to intruding thoughts, we should be so vigilant that as soon as they ''show there heads, like a serpent appearing through a hole, we must cut it off''! This is a potent use of 'stop exercise' which is also meant to halt the entry and influence of ''I's'' that seek to claim our identity. The more you live in a more quiet inner place {an inner sanctuary} where features cannot take over, the more you will see the difference between passing thoughts and feelings, and your deeper self."

Semi-circlular face - similar to the 'Cloud People'.  Both had 'male' names inscribed on top of 'lids'. Both therefore speculated to be 'priests' {'anima'?}. At least one turns out to be a woman {'priestess' i.e., right arm down by side - left arm across breast plate}. Both belong to an ancient cult of the ''Serpent goddess'' Niut-Shaes - an ancient aspect of the {vulture} goddess Mut - Mother/Wife of Amun. As seen in the private chapel of same at Karnac.

As is...'Silence is golden'.

Horus and or ''golden child'' in the positive sense of the word?

Question 2. On what 'side' of that bend in a river was the ''Valley of Kings'' established on?

A {working?} example: "The teaching of the three forces is at the root of all ancient systems. The first force may be called active or positive, the second, passive or negative; the third, neutralizing {'balance' therefore Libra link?}. But these are merely names, for in reality, all three forces are equally active and appear as active, passive, and neutralizing only at their meeting points - that is to say - only in relation to one another at a given moment. The first two forces are more or less comprehensible to man and the third may sometimes be discovered either at the point of application of the forces, or in the 'medium', or in the 'result' {i.e.,eureka moments - process of. But now in relation to the 'personal' stuff}.

Question. ''Meeting'' in relation to 'crossover point' - if only in relation to subject material {i.e.,the 'spiritual' stuff}.

Landscape equivalent: "It is the Harroway that took Belloc's prehistoric travellers westwards towards Salisbury Plain and Stonehenge. For Salisbury Plain is where all the great chalk ridges of southern England converge....The Harroway served as a key east-west trackway that extended across southern England." [Page 30 'The Pilgrims Way' / Derek Bright].

Continued..."But, speaking in general, the third force is not easily accessible to direct observation and understanding. The reason for this is be found in the functional limitations of man's ordinary psychological activity and in the fundamental categories of our perception of the phenomenal world, that is, in our sensation of space and time resulting from these limitations {i.e.,the 'background' upon which the above 'principle' is manifested. Representational of}. HENCE...

"People cannot perceive and observe the 'third' force directly any more than they can spatially perceive the 'fourth dimension'. BUT by studying himself, the manifestations of his thought, consciousness, activity - his habits, his desires, and so on - man may learn to observe and to 'see' in himself the action of the three forces..."

Analogy?..."It is shocking that such a profound insight into the philosophical implications of the theory of relativity has had little impact on physicists, it is dismaying that Godel's ideas have failed to catch the attention of philosophers { i.e.,that ''time'' is based only on our particular 'internal' experience, and not an actual feature of the physical universe}. Enlarged elsewhere.

Question. If ''time'' - THEREFORE 'space'?

'Being and Time' / Martin Heidegger.

Continued..."Let us suppose for instance, that a man wants to work on himself, in order to change certain of his characteristics, to attain a higher level of being. His desire, his initiative, is the active force. The inertia of all his habitual psychological life which shows opposition to his initiative will be the passive or negative force. The two forces will either counter balance one another, or one will completely conquer the other, but, at the same time, it will become to weak for any further action. Thus, the two forces will, as it were, revolve one around the other, one absorbing the other and producing no result whatsoever. This may continue for a lifetime. A man may feel desire and initiative. But all this initiative may be absorbed in overcoming the habitual inertia of life, leaving nothing for the purpose towards which the initiative ought to be directed. And so it may go on until the third force makes its appearance, in the form, for instance, of new knowledge, showing at once the advantage or necessity of work on oneself and, in this way, supporting and strengthening the initiative. Then the initiative, with the support of this third force, may conquer inertia and the man becomes active in the desired direction. Examples of the action of the 'three' forces, and the moments of 'entry' of the third force, may be discovered in all manifestations of our psychic life , in all phenomena of the life of human communities and of humanity as a whole, and in all the phenomena of nature around us." ['In Search of the Miraculous'].

"...active in the desired direction''. Question. Walking or running pace? {'line of sight' ?}.

Analogy {synchronistic?}: "Perhaps the most important aspect of these 'moments of vision' is that they suggest that there is a way of acquiring knowledge that is quite unlike the ordinary method of 'learning from experience' {'Tower of Babel'?}. When the visionary faculty is switched on the mind seems to be able to penetrate reality - rather in the manner of X-rays - and to grasp meanings that normally elude it...This is Faculty X. And the paradox is that we already possess it to a large degree, but are unconscious of possessing it. It lies at the heart {'bosom'?} of the so called 'occult' experience. It is with such experience that this book is concerned...But Faculty X should not be regarded as some 'paranormal' faculty. It is simply the opposite of that feeling of being 'mediocre, accidental, mortal', which all of us feel when we are tired and depressed....Whenever Faculty X awakens, it tells us that we are not contingent, accidental or mortal. Our 'powers' are far greater than we realize...The English paperback came out in a large grass-green volume, with some nonsensical quote about it being 'a book for those who would walk with the gods'..." [From the 'Occult' and 'Beyond the Occult' by C. Wilson. Emphasis, this readers]. Try among others ''rays''. As a means...?

Question. Do not eureka moments {regardless of subject} give us that 'greater' feeling?

REFRESHER: "....the words 'idea', 'wisdom' and 'vision' ALL originate from the common Indo-European root which means ''to see''. An idea is an insight, an inner flash of illumination that can result in 'wisdom'." [From the book 'Alexandria' / Vol 3 ].

A {working} example {i.e., something hinted at}: "As soon as you think you have an answer to a problem, let me know - and I will return the reply - to say whether your HARE found what I want you to discover for yourself." [Page 158 of the book by P. F. Case. Vol 1].

Follow the title of the book to 'see' it within its broader {'horizon'?} - viewpoint.

''Accident'' in relation to: "Why are we here? If you trace it right back, the odds of you existing in this universe is small; infinitesimally small. Is our existence merely accidental? And if we are merely accidents what about the universe? Is its form and existence also accidental? And if that's the case what does that mean to you? I think modern science is very close to answering these questions." [Human Universe / B. Cox. 2/5].

This subject has already asked those questions - from the oral tradition - "Before the written word came into common use."

Side note: "One other aspect of gematria, [i.e.,'number' symbolism] which is examined throughout the course of this study, is in connection with the ratios of geometry, from which the term is derived in the first place. To cite a simple yet elegant example, a circle with the perimeter of 891, has a diameter of 284 units. The gematria value of ''Heaven'', is 891 while the value of , ''God'' is 284. The arrangement nicely illustrates the conception that the abode of 'divinity' is in the heavenly sphere. More importantly, according to the Pythagorean philosophers of Greece, the ratios of the fundamental geometry underlie the structure of the Kosmos or world order. Further more , the most central numbers of Greek gematria were derived from the number values of these very same ratios that were seen as underlying the universal fabric." Chapter 2, {Gematria: The Secret Language of the Christian Mysteries} from the book, 'Jesus Christ Sun of God'. Mentioned elsewhere]. Try ''logos''.

Question. Which came first- the value of ''Pi'' - or number symbolism?....and WHY?

"The present Arabic name of Egypt is al-Misri, which is the equivalent of the biblical Misraim. This name is derived from the Semitic root which in Akkadian gives the verb asaru, "to cut, to delimit, to delineate", and hence, "to draw a picture, a plan, " and the noun esertu, "drawing plan, representation," applied in particular to the specifications for the construction of a building. In Semitic language an 'm' before the root of a verb forms what we would call a past participle: Egypt is the country built according to a geometric plan. The Egyptians expressed this idea by calling their land To- Mera, "the land of the mr." The word 'mr' is used to refer to the pyramids, but more specifically it refers to the meridian triangle of a pyramid, whose hypotenuse is the apothem. The 'mr', essentially is a right angle triangle....." [Page 291, same book]. Put ''hypotenuse'' in the box.

For this reader, a more practical example of same could be...."the pyramid built by Djedefre, Khufu's son, and successor, is 5 miles to the North of a hillock overlooking the Giza plateau, [Abu Ruash]. ......Perhaps he was motivated by religious reasons since Djedefre is the first pharaoh to take the title 'Son of Re'.

Visitors will finally end up at the now famous obelisk."

On the Eastern side Mare Imbrium, Mare Humorum and Mare Nubium make up the matching earring. In Leaf's translation the earrings are described as 'earrings of triple drops', but a literal translation of the phrase is said to imply mulberries, and Robert Fagles writes of 'ripe mulberry clusters dangling in triple drops' - another striking image for the 'seas'..."

A work in progress: ''This is the invitation, i think, that this valley is making to us: St. John of the Cross, invites us to reflect on the Songs: He says he will go up to the high caves of rock that are deeply hidden. In these caves the soul wants to go deeper and deeper - to be absorbed; to get intoxicated. To be deeper transformed in the love that the knowledge of the mystery will give to it, and to hide in the bosom of her beloved. The latter indeed invites her in the Song of Songs to enter into the GAPS of stone, into the caves of the wall.''

A working example: ''The myth clearly states that when the coffin of Osiris was washed ashore in Bablos, it touched the sacred tamarisk tree, and the tree shot up to an enormous height, enclosing the 'god' in its trunk. This 'magical' sprouting corresponds with the mystical idea of the Tree of Life as representative of the Tree of Knowledge - that is, that life on earth mirrors life in the cosmos. Says Madame Blavatsky of this tree: 'In the beginning its roots were generated in Heaven, and grew out of the Rootless Root of all being. Its trunk grew and developed, crossing the planes of Pleroma, it shot out crossways its branches, first on the plane of hardly differentiated matter, and then downward untill they touched the terrestrial plane. Thus {the Tree of Life and Being} it is said: It grows with its roots above and branches below.'' [Page 75 'Feasts of Lights: Celebrations of the Seasons and Egyptian Goddess Mysteries' / N. Ellis].

Side step: Owen discovered that our arms and legs, our hands and feet, fit into a larger scheme. He saw what anatomists before him had long known, that there is a pattern to the skeleton of a human arm: one bone in the upper arm, two bones in the forearm, a bunch of nine little bones at the wrists, then a series of five rods that make the fingers. The pattern of bones in the human leg is much the same: one bone, two bones, lotsa blobs, and five toes. In comparing this pattern with the diversity of skeletons in the world, Owen made a remarkable discovery.

 

Owen’s genius was not that he focused on what made the various skeletons different. What he found, and later promoted in a series of lectures and volumes, were exceptional similarities among creatures as different as frogs and people. All creatures with limbs, whether those limbs are wings, flippers, or hands, have a common design....

One bone, the humerus in the arm or the femur in the leg, articulates with two bones, which attach to a series of small blobs, which connect with the fingers or toes. This pattern underlies the architecture of all limbs. Want to make a bat wing? Make the fingers really long. Make a horse? Elongate the middle fingers and toes and reduce and lose the outer ones. How about a frog leg? Elongate the bones of the leg and fuse several of them together....The common plan for all limbs: one bone, followed by two bones, then little blobs, then fingers or toes....The differences between creatures lie in differences in the shapes and sizes of the bones and the numbers of blobs, fingers, and toes. Despite radical changes in what limbs do and what they look like, this underlying blueprint is always present. ['Your Inner Fish' / N. Shubin].

Big Fish is a 2003 American fantasy drama film directed by Tim Burton, and based on the 1998 novel Big Fish: A Novel of Mythic Proportions by Daniel Wallace.

'Lost Princess'.

Side note: These are the sons of David who were born to him in Hebron: the firstborn, Amnon, by Ahinoam the Jezreelite; the second, ^oDaniel, by Abigail the Carmelite, 2 the third, Absalom, whose mother was Maacah, the daughter of Talmai, king of Geshur; the fourth, Adonijah, whose mother was Haggith; 3 the fifth, Shephatiah, by Abital; the sixth, Ithream, by his wife Eglah; 4 six were born to him in Hebron, ^pwhere he reigned for seven years and six months. ^qAnd he reigned thirtythree years in Jerusalem. 5 ^rThese were born to him in Jerusalem: ^sShimea, Shobab, Nathan and ^tSolomon, four by ^uBath-shua, the daughter of ^uAmmiel; 6 then Ibhar, ^vElishama, Eliphelet, 7 Nogah, Nepheg, Japhia, 8 Elishama, ^wEliada, and Eliphelet, nine. 9 All these were David’s sons, besides the sons of the concubines, ^xand Tamar was their sister.

Tamar (Hebrew: תָּמָר) was an Israelite princess. Born to David and Maacah, who was from Geshur, she was the only full sibling of Absalom. She is described in the Hebrew Bible as being exceptionally beautiful, as is her brother. In the narrative of 2 Samuel 13, she is raped by her paternal half-brother Amnon (born to David and Ahinoam, who was from Jezreel) before fleeing with torn robes to Absalom's house; David is angered by the incident, but does nothing, as Amnon is his heir apparent. Absalom, infuriated by the rape and David's inaction, keeps Tamar in his care and later assassinates Amnon to avenge her, subsequently fleeing to Geshur, which is ruled by his and Tamar's maternal grandfather Talmai. Three years later, he returns to Israel and leads an armed revolt against the House of David, but is killed by David's nephew and army commander Joab during the Battle of the Wood of Ephraim. Tamar is described as being left "a desolate women in her brother's house" and the sole guardian of her orphaned niece, who is also named Tamar.

A working example: ''It seems quite likely that the alternative names used by the classical writers, Galatai and Galli, may have come from the same Celtic root. Perhaps the Greeks were being respectful when they referred to their north-westerly neighbours as Galatai -'warriors' in their own language....But its also possible that the word 'Galatai' isn't Celtic at all, and actually has its roots in Greek. Galaktos means 'of milk' in ancient Greek - so was this a term that the olive -skinned Mediterraneans coined for those pale, 'milk-white' tribespeople in the N/W? As for the origin of the term 'Galli', that simply appears to be a Latin version of the Greek 'Galatai'. When Galatai becomes Latinized to Galli, a pun is created {Sacred ones?} - it also means 'cockerel'. The mascot of the French football team is a rooster. The Gallic rooster has adorned the French strip since 1909, but its been the unofficial mascot of the French nation for centuries - since Roman times.'' [Page 34/5 'The Celts' / A. Roberts].

A bronze equestrian statue of Charles I, erected in 1675, stands on a high plinth, situated roughly where a medieval monumental cross had previously stood for 353 years (since its construction in 1294) until destroyed in 1647 by Cromwell and his revolutionary government. The famously beheaded King, appearing ascendant, is the work of French sculptor Hubert Le Sueur.''

Location and etymology:

Erect a rich and stately carved cross,
Whereon her statue shall with glory shine;
And henceforth see you call it Charing Cross.

— George Peele The Famous Chronicle of King Edward the First (1593)

The name of the lost hamlet, Charing, is derived from the Old English word most helpfully spelt cierring, a river BEND, in this case thus meaning: in the Thames.^[4][5][6]

The suffix "Cross" refers to the Eleanor cross made during 1291–94 by order of King Edward I as a memorial to his wife, Eleanor of Castile.^[7] At the time, this place comprised little more than wayside cottages serving the Royal Mews in the northern area of today's Trafalgar Square, and built specifically for the Palace of Whitehall (today much of the east side of Whitehall). A debunked folk etymology ran that the name is a corruption of chère reine ("dear queen" in French), but the name pre-dates Eleanor's death by at least a hundred years.^[4][8] A variant form in the hazy Middle English orthography of the late fourteenth century is Cherryngescrouche.^[4]

From a different perspective: ''The New Light and the Open Entrance are alchemical works of their period in the more strict understanding of the term, i.e., that the transmutation of 'metals' {inside the earth?} is their sole or main concern - and in this SENSE only...'' [ Introduction to the book 'The Works of Thomas Vaughan' / Ed. Waite].

Something internal not external.

''May be responding to certain changes in Egyptian religion -  wanting to emphasize certain aspects of the solar cult.'' [John Darnell].

A working example and/or something closer to the 'mark' could be: ''Such disjunctions of masculine and feminine ENERGIES, where the outer crack in the bookcase {i.e., in this example that would be within the room where the conversation took place between Freud and Jung} is synchronistic with the inner 'split' in psyche - pointing to the 'crack between the worlds' - where extraordinary experiences may be had....A polarization imagined as fire and water mixed, such that the water does not touch the fire to douse it, and the fire does not touch the water to vaporise it - that space between - where the synchronistic moment occurs....Here, again, we find Hermes or Mercury lurking, as the alchemists 'Mercurial Waters', an admixture of fire and water; birthed as an extended range of senses - earth and air... Represented as ''luminous'' as in ''luminous fish'' {Peacocks tail?} and/or: ''Also the strange flickering lights as seen sometimes on the surface of a marsh - with its death smell or corpse smell {Bog bodies?}....This reflective and reflexive process that comes out of, and turns back to the collective unconscious, the mundus imaginalis, is a 'perfect seeking', the adoption of a spiritual path. Such seeking is facilitated through the opening {doorway?} or flowering of the Self {'Palace'?}.'' [Pages 162/180/290 'Fruits of the Moon Tree' / A. Bleakley].

And/or: ''The Famine Stela was inscribed into a natural granite block whose surface was cut into the rectangular shape of a stela. The inscription is written in hieroglyphs and contains 'fortytwo' columns. The top part of the stele depicts three Egyptian deities: Khnum, Satis and Anuket. In front of them, Djoser faces them, carrying offerings in his outstretched hands. A broad fissure, which already was there at the time of creating the stela, goes through the middle of the rock. Some sections of the stela are damaged, making a few passages of the text unreadable.'' [Wiki].

''Middle'' = navel link therefore 'placenta'?

'GAP'?

Working example: ''It is difficut to express the sense of loss that one feels at the premature truncation of the final stanzas of the ''Dark Night.'' If we possessed them, they would explain the birth of the light - 'Dawns first breathings in the heavens above' - which breaks through the black darkness of the Active and Passive Nights. They would tell us, too, of the souls further progress towards the Sun's full brightness. It is true, of course, that some part of this great GAP is filled by St. John of the Cross himself in his other treatises....'' [Intro. 'Dark Night of the Soul' / E. A. Peers].

'Unfinished' to enlarge.

And/or: ''Lady of Wisdom...hers is a science belonging to the 'rising dawn' , that joyful 'golden hour' called Mother of the Sun' a betwixt and between time which is the 'true golden hour at the end of their labours' for those 'who correctly perform the various operations', neither complete light nor complete darkness, a time when the invisible gateway opens {'gap'?} for those longing  to commune with her.'' [Page 224 'Hathor's Alchemy'].

And/or: ''Usually, the body and person are unstable, in the SENSE that they are predictably unpredictable - vulnerable and defensive in character, a closed but cracked and flawed vessel. At the crossing point of vertical and horizontal is the null point {'zero'?} where the vessel is open but does not leak; is saturated with soul, and is an imageless stability. This is a moment of enlightenment, where the chora {vessel} is permeable to both inner and outer equally, and inner work meets the exterior shape of the personality change desired {'glass'?}. This is the completion of a major piece of 'therapy', as the imaginative act, the transcendent moment that constitutes a quantum leap in insight. In Egyptian mysteries, this is akin to the meeting of the four sons of Horus.'' [Page 226 'Fruits of the Moon Tree'].

REFRESHER: As seen from a different {perspective?}: "A single obsessional idea runs through all my work: the paradoxical nature of freedom...The trouble is the narrowness of consciousness. It is as if you tried to see a panoramic scene through cracks in a high fence, but were never allowed to look over the fence and see it as a whole." ['The Occult' and 'Beyond the Occult' by C. Wilson].

Example of that end result [Hindu equivalent]. 'Play of Consciousness' by Swami Muktananda. What the author defines as ''breaking of the Blue star.'' [Micro]. Gurdjieff defines the same as the ''fourth way.'' [Macro]. Represented in one of its physical forms as the American Medal of Honor. [Micro within the Macro]. Explained elsewhere.

From a different perspective: Mary Magdalene = ''Tower of the fish''.

Tower of strength? Feet first?

From a different perspective: ''I have already said too little and too much about the Stone of the Philosophers. Why should i not speak more plainly still? Why shouldn't i, too, prize open a small door in the King's shut palace? [ Page 369 'Mercurius' / P. Harpur].

And/or: ''....all manner of flotsam came floating up from my wreaked heart; but above all, my soul came - without my calling him - and now maybe, just maybe i can see a way out because this business of the soul has given me a bit of leverage on you and my bloody life. I'll explain about my soul if i can - because i want you to understand - but first i must tell you about the cellar - i really am under threat from floods. I should have guessed when i saw how the whole area is reverting to a water meadow. You see the library and two bedrooms above it are Victorian additions - built on at right angles to the cottage {'wattle and daub'?}....They've sunk to a lower level than the rest of the house so that when you go through the door set into the bookcases at the back of the library you have to go down some steps to the former cottage's dark and narrow corridor, which ends in a blank wall {'wattle and daub'?}. At the end on the left is a door which leads back to the hall....'' [ Page 29 'Mercurius' / P. Harpur].

U-Turn?

'Perpendicular' or juxtaposition ?

Folded/UNfolded?

A true 'Son' possesses his 'fathers,' essence and secret both in his exterior appearance and in his inner being. The Prophet explains this secret as, ...' a special knowledge like a hidden treasure that only those who know the Essence of 'god' can find. Yet when the mystery is revealed, no one who is conscious and sincere can deny it." [Chapter 5, 'The Secret of Secrets' by Al - Jilani]. Think about it, relative to all the above, together with the external [explained elsewhere] and especially internal 'composition' of all three pyramids,[i.e.,only the 'big one' has any 'development' in its higher 'division'. The rest, take note, are all in the 'lower'].

Question. When all the available 'information' is put together, and just using nothing more than a 'first impression' [but now from 'a possible positive understanding' point of view, brought about by that 'individual' effort, i.e., objective analysis] - what; when thought about; is the most likely...order of construction? [in relation to the Pyramids].

That together with a quote from 'The Riddle of the Sphinx' [Discovery/ History channel], about Djedefre being represented with three 'Falcons', Khufu [his dad] represented with two, and his grandad with one. Knock knock...'See' anything. Hear anything...language of 'birds'?...in relation to a development / 'foundation' of something? i.e., the tail end of something and the beginning of something else? All represented, 'as a journey' [ship].

That same link to ‘Nefertiti’. The left eye purposely ‘opaque/invisible’ indicative of the ‘inner’ eye. Which is ‘helpful ’; amongst other things; in understanding concepts and abstracts, i.e., in regards to this subject, i.e., the possibility of ‘B/C’...in relation to the observer in [A]. 'B/C'...Always represented with the ‘left’ of anything. ‘Right’ is indicative of the physical world [A]. i.e., the ‘start’ of something. The start of a possible understanding of something, [ ‘East’ ]. Hence the link to the physical eye. Pagan/Greek ‘equivalent’ = ‘Cyclops’ i.e., from its ‘unknown’ state, i.e., a 'monster' of the 'deep', [ in relation to the psyche ]. Which is always represented; when psyche symbolism used; as the ‘unconscious aspect’. Therefore implying that 'something'... has 'to be' made aware of, therefore that link to a one eyed 'monster', that one eye that is indicative of an awareness; the beginning of one, from the depths, i.e., the 'id' . Hebrew equivalent; of sorts..."David who slew a {one?} eyed giant. He grew up to become the first king to unite the settled tribes in one kingdom", i.e.,'lower' self. [ Chapter 18, 'The Sacred History'].

'In the One Eyed Giants Cave'. Chapter/Book 9 'The Odyssey' by Homer.

Yet another analogy of same, i.e.,with the same intent. But by a different author... "Nothing is permanent but the truth? If he seeks deep enough in himself he will find it revealed, each may know his own heart. He may send a ray of his intelligence into the depths of his soul and search its bottom, he may find it to be infinitely deep as the sky above his head. He may find corals and pearls, or watch the monsters of the deep. If his thought is steady and unwavering , he may enter the innermost sanctuary of his own temple and see the 'goddess' unveiled. Not everyone can penetrate into such depths, because the thought is easily led astray; but the strong and persistent searcher will penetrate veil after veil, until at the inner most center it discovers the germ of truth, which awakened to consciousness, will grow into a sun that illuminates the whole of the interior world, wherein everything is contained." ['Magic: White and Black' by F. Hartman]. Link to the phrase ''son of''.

That link to Hades who has the use of both eyes. Equals a further 'development'. [Or chapter seven,'The secret History of the World']. "Nefertiti, in Thutmose's head, [in reference to the 'potter' who made the bust], is telling us that 'only half of the person can be seen' , drawing a distinction between the physical and spiritual sides of life. In the same way the eye of Akhenaten is also missing, he to can only 'see' half of the picture, but this time it is the right eye that is missing". [Page 88, 'The Tutankhamun Prophecies'].

Think about it, relative to those Egyptian 'profile' figures drawn on many a wall both external and inner. The right eye of which is always seen left to right. The left therefore always right to left. 'See' anything? i.e., one of those two represent [in some form] more so than the other the Precession of the Equinox. Can you tell which and why? [Put ''profile'' in the search box, [on all pages] for further clues. In order to assess correctly.

"The platform {of a Sed Festival building} is in the form of an immense measuring rod, similar to those preserved today in several museums. The classic type, most often made of wood and intended for actual use, is demonstrated by the Turin Museum cubit. On one of its 'faces' is an ascending enumeration of digits, palms, and spans. This face is read left to right, and the remen or remen cubit of 20 digits, the small cubit of twentyfour digits, and the royal cubit of twentyeight digits or 7 palms are all marked on it. The fractioning of each digit is read in the opposite direction, from 1/2 to 1/16th {=1.17mm or 1/22 inch}. Also to be read from right-left are the names of 28 divinities, one for each digit, from the Great Ennead to Thoth, who occupies the 15th place, appropriate for the master of measure and time." [Extract from the book 'Egyptian Mysteries'].

'Fifteen'.

"All the great truths are disguised. After all, the material world is at best a mask for the Spiritual World. I think that's why he kept a bust of himself in the shop." [Extract taken from [ prologue] 'The Zelator' by Mark Hedsel ].

Question. What does ''15'' represent. If only in the context of this 'subject material' ? Then try ''64''.

Analogy of same..."In common with most of the other very ancient female figures they are generally described in an ugly and grotesque form, [ the word 'unmanifest' could be applied to represent that same 'principle']. This is not necessarily the case, [i.e., for its alternative / opposite and/or 'flip side' interpretation, see below], though the fact that they were called the 'grey ones' and shared a single eye and a single tooth does conjure an image of grotesque senility. However, greyness does not necessarily mean physical age. Ancient these goddesses certainly are, but, as with the other 'old and lordly' ones it is possible to be ever young. Their greyness might also be conceived in terms of shimmering morning mist, under moonlight or starlight. And their single eye and single tooth organs of perception of a unique and rare character. The 'all seeing eye' associated with the omniscience of God-Head; and the tooth being the three-fold emblem of the immortal spirit. As with the Hebrew letter 'Shin' which means the spirit and a tooth - the hardest organic part of the physical body. [Representational of. This readers input]. Question. Why? [Extract taken from the book 'The Rose Cross and the Goddess: The Quest for the Eternal Feminine Principle'. Mentioned elsewhere].

From a different perspective: ''This Isis shines out of the cosmos in an aura of many lunimous colours. We must learn to understand Isis when we look out into the cosmos, to see this cosmos in its aura of luminous colours....We must create this legend, for it presents the truth of our times. We must speak of the dead and 'lost' Isis, the divine Sophia, in the same way that ancient Egyptians spoke of the dead and lost Osiris....In other words, in what natural science gives us, we must find something which stimulates us inwardly toward Imagination, Inspiration and Intuition..... This is the light that Goethe fought against in his theory of colours, opposing the statement that white light contains all the colours, which in truth extend over the mysterious, manifold and secret deeds of the whole universe.''

''I would like to remind you of something which i have repeatedly brought forward in various ways in the course of many years. I have told you: We look back {east or west?} into the first Post Atlantean age, which was filled with the deeds and experiences of the ancient indian people; we look back {hindsight/foresight?} into the ancient Persian epoch of post-Atlantean humanity, into the Egypto-Chaldean, and into the Greco-Latin. We come then to the fifth epoch of the post Atlantean humanity; our own. Our epoch will be followed by the 6th and 7th. I have drawn your attention to the fact that the Greco-Latin, the 4th epoch, stands as it were in the middle....'' [Page 167 'Ancient Myths' / R. Steiner].

'Seat of First Occasion'?

'Three and a half' and/or Senet board game and/or Amarna? {i.e., on the brow of a hill}.

''Westward leading still proceeding.......''

From a different perspective: {with something extra?}:  ''This concept of Celli Wig, a seat of government and therefore symbolic of the central recess of Arthurs soul, raises the whole question of the significance of the topographical description insisted on throughout this myth. That a 'boar hunt' should range from the west of Ireland, across the Irish Channel, to West Wales, thence to South Wales as far as the river Severn, and now be threatening Cornwall, clearly indicates some psychic concept.'' [Page 163 'A Celtic Quest' / J. Layard].

''Go west young man, go west ?''

Analogy: ..."Although it throws me ahead of my story by a number of years, i will recount here the last words given to me by Bhaduri Mahasaya. Shortly before i embarked for the West, i sought him out and humbly knelt for his farewell blessing: 'Son, go to America. Take the dignity of hoary India for your shield. Victory is written on your brow; the noble distant people will well receive you." [Both extracts from the book 'Autobiography of a Yogi: Paramahansa Yogananda' ]. Understand that 'relationship' defines what is being implied.

The Hebrew equivalent of a 'development' = Solomons ‘Shulamite’, i.e., in relation to the learning of something. A process begun, [i.e., manifest]. ‘Pacified/content’. Think back to Nefertiti. A link to the ‘Hangmans’ card of tarot fame. Note the expression. Symbolic of ‘a learning’. Knowledge ‘acquired’?. Ancient Egyptian equivalent = 'Expression' [and composition] of the face of the Sphinx. In its ‘known’ state. [ Explained elsewhere. Together with the program, 'The Riddle of the Sphinx' ].

Side note: "He was carried to the weir of Gwyddno Garanhair near Dovey and Aberystwyth, in Cardigan Bay, and rescued from it by Prince Elphin, the son of Gwyddno and nephew of king Maelgwyn of Gwynedd {North Wales}, who had come there to 'net fish' {'153' of them?}. Elphin, though he caught no fish, considered himself well rewarded for his labour, and renamed Gwion 'Taliesin', meaning either 'fine value' or 'beautiful brow' - a subject for punning {sacred ones?} - by the author of the romance."

Books explaining an individuals journey = ‘Zealtor’ by M. Hedsel. Or 'Play of Consciousness' by Swami Muktananda. Or 'Dreams of Isis' by Normandi Ellis. Or ’My Rosicrucian adventure’ by Israel Regardie. Or 'Letter to a Disciple' / Al-Ghazali. Or ’Book of shadows’ by P. Curott. Or ’I Called it Magic’ by G. Knight {others elsewhere}. The real ’magic’ by the way’, before those first impressions take hold of the imagination...is the understanding of the subject. The "getting the head around it". The understanding of something new and its potential / ‘magic’, to each individual. As it is in any subject, i.e.,those eureka moments, that every subject must have in order to understand them. [Egyptian equivalent the word Heka. Explained elsewhere]. Sufi's define that same 'process' as ''direct tasting.'' Link to 'food' symbolism. Explained elsewhere. Or as a ''mystical impulse'' as by the author of 'Letter To a Disciple'.

A work in progress: "The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. He to whom the emotion is a stranger, who can no longer pause to wonder and stand wrapped in awe, is as good as dead; his eyes are closed. The insight into the mystery of life, coupled though it may be with fear, has also given rise to re-ligion. To know what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty, which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their most primitive forms - this knowledge, this feeling {'Geminin'?} is at the center of true religiousness." [Albert Einstein].

"...the supreme object of magic is the knowledge of the 'higher' self." [Extract taken from the book by I. Regardie].

Analogy: ''She protects all her children through 'magical' means. Each of us male or female, may see ourselves as her 'children' recognizing the divinity within ourselves and acknowledging our connection to the Source. More accessible than our human mothers, Isis tends, inspires, and teaches us at the speed of a single thought {eureka moments?}. Isis and Thoth are among the most accessible and trustworthy guides and teachers.'' [Page 38 'The Union of Isis and Thoth' / N. Ellis and N. Scully].

''Source'' in relation to Part 1. ''Child'' as the beginning of a learning curve.

"Magic is considered both an art and a science. Behind all science is theory, and to understand magic one must theorize on why magic works." [Chapter 8, 'Keeper of secrets' Vol 2 by R. Siblerud]. i.e., 'Divine bit' relative to framework.

"The word ''magic'' has a way of revealing the inmost thoughts of the soul. Tell me a mans reaction to the word, and i will tell you, approximately, the state of his souls evolution."..."To use a 'magical' expression, magic is lifting the Veil of Isis."

"For the soul grows and progresses as comprehension and intuition expand through successive acts of the spirit on the road of the Magic of Light. The wings then grow stronger, the flight itself grows longer, and the inner lamp fed on the Oil of wisdom remains constantly burning." [Quote taken from 'The Tree of Life'. Mentioned elsewhere].

Represented; in the main; as a coiled serpent. Especially a sleeping one. Link to Ro-setau, i.e.,the 'coiled rope' being one of its emblems. That same 'rope' that is seen on many wall 'pictorial events'... all the 'aspects' of which are shown in some form or other...to have that potential of a .... 'connectedness'. From something 'asleep' to 'being awakened'. No rabbits out of hats. 'Hare’ possibly. Think on it.

"One of the main means whereby man arrives at an understanding of that great sum total we call the Macrocosm - 'God', functioning through a solar system - is by an understanding of himself, and the Delphic injunction ''Man, know thyself'' was an inspired utterance, intended to give man the clue to the mystery of deity....

Through the Law of Analogy, or correspondence, the cosmic processes, and the nature of the cosmic principles are indicated in the functions, structure and characteristics of a human being. They are indicated but are not explained or elaborated. They serve simply as signposts [or keys], directing man along the path whereon future sign posts may be found and more definite indications noted." [Introduction to the book 'Treatise on White Magic' or 'The Way of the Disciple' by Alice Bailey]. Recall what ''correspondence'' implies. Try Part 2.

"Pliny the Elder [23-79 AD], who actually lived during the time of Christ, in Book XXX of his 'Natural History' wrote that the Greek astronomer Eudoxus of Cnidus [409-356 BC] ....''wished 'magic' to be acknowledged as the noblest and more useful of the schools of philosophy.'' [Chapter one, 'Serpent of Wisdom' by D. Tyson]. Recall what 'philosophy' meant. Enlarged elsewhere.

Understanding Djedefre 'water mountain' [or 'fountain' [key]], hieroglyphs... which includes 'rope' gives the reader that deeper insight into Mr Djedefre's true status, especially in relation to Mr Khufu's. As speculated within the book 'The Black Genesis' by R. Bauval and T. Brophy]. Found within. But more importantly in relation to 'younger', i.e., Menkaure. Of the three ''pharaoh's'' only the youngest has the words ''divine'' and ''eternal'' within his 'name'. He was also known as the most benign. A 'prerequisite' of Kingship. ''Divine'' in relation to the unveiling of something. Use the search box. Try ''fountain.''

Analogy of same, i.e., with the same principle in mind..."In Ibn al-Arabi's technical vocabulary, "opening'' [futuh] is a near synonym for several other terms, such as unveiling, tasting, witnessing, divine effusion, divine self disclosure, and insight. Each of these words designates a mode of gaining direct knowledge of 'god' and the 'unseen' worlds without the intermediary of study, teacher, or rational faculty. 'God' ''opens up'' the heart to the infusion of knowledge. The word ''opening'' suggests that this type of knowledge comes to the aspirant suddenly after he had been waiting patiently at the door".

Egyptian equivalent the word 'Heka', and that 'connectedness' to the 'serpent',i.e.,'Uraeus'. Chapter three. 'British Museum Book of Ancient Egyptian'. Especially noteworthy in its research on the symbolism of 'snake poison' as a "manifestation of divinity" of 'life'...against 'death', i.e.,antidote of same. Think about it in relation to that 'potential' of a 'development', by way of an understanding. Apophis link, i.e.,from its unknown/'negative' start point, i.e.,'sting in the tail', [metaphor only]. Explained elsewhere. Link to 'spider' symbolism. Enlarged elsewhere.

Scorpion? i.e.,'Sting in the tail' in relation to ''untransmuted'' ?

A {working} example: "The ancient ones of early eastern Christianity taught that, in relation to intruding thoughts, we should be so vigilant that as soon as they ''show there heads, like a serpent appearing through a hole, we must cut it off''! This is a potent use of 'stop exercise' which is also meant to halt the entry and influence of ''I's'' that seek to claim our identity. The more you live in a more quiet inner place {an inner sanctuary} where features cannot take over, the more you will see the difference between passing thoughts and feelings, and your deeper self." ['Wisdom of the 4th Way'].

See picture of same elsewhere for a 'connection'.

And/or..."This strong presence of serpentine imagery on the carved stones at Gobekli tepe begged the question of just what this creature might have symbolized to the peoples of the Pre- Pottery Neolithic age. Universally, snakes are seen as symbols of supernatural power, divine energy, otherworldly knowledge, male and female sexuality, and, because they shed their skin, metaphysical transformation. The snake also represents the active spirit of medicines, the reason it is today a universal symbol of the medical profession. Moreover, the snake is associated not just with beneficial medicines...In Christian legend for instance, poison offered to John the Evangelist in a laced chalice of wine was made to slither away as a black snake moments before the apostle was about to drink it. Are the snakes carved on the pillars meant to symbolize the visionary effects of mind altering or sleep inducing drugs? It seems likely, for as Schmidt writes himself, several large basalt bowls found at the site were perhaps used in the preparation of medicines or drugs." ['Gobekli Tepe' by A. Collins]. Try ''cup'' / 'snake' / ''bowl'' for an alternative view, while recalling what ''basalt'' derives from. ALL AS A MEANS...?

REFRESHER: "....the words 'idea', 'wisdom' and 'vision' ALL originate from the common Indo-European root which means ''to see''. An idea is an insight, an inner flash of illumination that can result in 'wisdom'." [From the book 'Alexandria' / Vol 3 ].

Something closer to the 'mark': Working example {i.e., especially in relation to ''basalt''. Other 'keys' highlighted}: "It has taken me virtually 45 years to distil within the vessel of my scientific work the things I experienced and wrote down at that time. As a young man my goal had been to accomplish something in my science. But then, I hit upon this stream of lava, and the heat of its fires reshaped my life...." [Page 225 'Memories, Dreams and Reflections' / C. G. Jung].

And/or: ''As we continue to pin this thought down, it will twist this way and that. The very act of looking at it changes it, causes reactions, perhaps sometimes even contradictory reactions. A thought is never still. It is a living thing that can never be identified definitively with the dead letter of language. This is why Schopenhauer, another proponent of the mystical philosophy at the heart of this book, said that 'as soon as you try to put a thought into words it ceases to be true'....'' [Page 52 'The Secret History of the World' / J. Black].

"....this has been likened to grasping a snake, previously asleep in the sunlight. Once we have grasped it, we awaken it and must then engage in a constant battle {and/or ''struggle''} with 'it', grasping it ever tighter, lest it escape and bite us..." Enlarged elsewhere. Try Part 3. Before those 1st impressions whisper {hiss?} something else.

"For both the ''mud of the serpent of old'' and a ''kind of godly fluid'' indeed flow in the veins of the human race. Is this dualism then? Do the serpents venom and the tears of the 'Virgin' therefore flow together eternally in the flow of life? [Extract from the book by Tomberg. 'Letter 17' ].

"...metaphor is the language of art." Quote by Joseph Campbell.

"Metaphor is the dreamwork of language and like all dreamwork, its interpretation reflects as much on the interpreter as the originator...So to understanding a metaphor is as much a creative endeavour as making a metaphor, and as little guided by rules." [Taken from the book 'The Book of Babel'. Mentioned elsewhere].

"The fruit of the Underworld Tree is only 'poisonous' in its untransmuted state." [Chapter 4, 'The Underworld Initiation' by R. Stewart]. That link to the difference in 'meaning' to ''incarnation'' and ''reincarnation,'' IF only in relation to this subject. Use the usual box.

Adam and Eve?

'The fruit of ones labours' ?

A working example: ''After the resurrection the righteous will go to the Garden of Eden, but the sinners will be punished in a place called Gehenna - its entrance in the Valley of Cedars {I.e., Kidron valley}. ['Jerusalem: Center of the World' / PBS America. Episode 1].

Try ''Herod''. And/or: Recall the Gilgamesh story {myth?}.

From a different perspective: ''The text further complicates matters by interpretating Rex and Regina as the 'body and soul of our matter'. The latter are explicitly related to sulphur and mercury since they are joined in the 'mercurial fountain' and 'burned by the sulphurous  fires of Gehenna'. In alchemical terms, the usually 'fixed' sulphur has become volatile and the usually volatile mercury, 'fixed'. Psychologically, this seems to express a variation on the main theme.....'' [Page 143 'Mercurius' / P. Harpur].

 

A working example: ''Hermeticism is an athanor {'alchemical furnace'} erected in the individual human consciousness, where the mercury of intellectuality undergoes transmutation into the gold of spirituality.'' [Page 194 'Meditations on the Tarot].
