One other quote that was made was that if Mr Khans grave site was disturbed then it would be a ‘sign’ for the ‘end’ of the world. Remember symbolic only. The Greek equivalent = ‘Apocalypse’. Same thing as the book of revelations. The ‘unveiling’ of something. The zodiac has different con- stellations ‘changing’ every 2160 years within that ‘great’ cycle and its relevance in mythology. In relation to a ‘new era’. [See 'Hamlets Mill' for verification]. Common parlance... "Out with the old. In with the new". Do you want to begin that ‘new era’? i.e., to satisfy that new curiosity. Then investigate and achieve what the character 'Horus' of Egyptian fame was 'created' to represent. Indicative of each and every one of us. Indicative of the start point of an understanding. Then attempt to find that location.

Side note: "According to Thukydides, the temple of Dionysos Limnaios was situated to the south of the Akropolis and was one of the cities oldest sanctuaries....''in the swamps'' the wine was mixed with water and drank to him for the first time in the new wine year....Prior to this, in their homes, the Athenians had drawn the still sweet wine - from large clay vessels - and then brought it to the scene of the festival....It was mixed with spring water. The place must have been a geological formation characteristic of Greece - the best known example of which is the swamp of Lerna: water pours from under the rocks {'Peter'?}, yet despite its purity it forms a ''swamp''. Dionysos entered into the 'underworld' and returned from it near Lerna....That is why in Aristophanes the song of the 'frogs' of this swamp accompanied Dionysos on his journey to the underworld.....In time the springs dried up. According to Strabo - at the time of Christs birth {hint,hint} - the sanctuary stood on 'dry land'....The sanctuary in the 'swamps' was regarded in Athens not only as the oldest but also the most sacred temple of Dionysos.'' [Pages 291-3 'Dionysos' / C. Kerenyi].

From a different perspective: ''What do we get out of our religious beliefs? The answer is enlightenment or illumination {i.e., represented with the suns rays?} AND peace, what the ancient Egyptians called hotep and is represented by the hieroglyph for communion - the bread  and beer of the Egyptians. THIS IS THE PEACE that accompanies 'illumination'. In Buddhist meditation, the place of peace and nothingness {'void'?} may be called the ''sweet spot.''

The First and most remote of these is represented by Ocelotonatiuh, the jaguar god: 'During that 'sun' lived the 'giants' that had been created by the gods but were finally attacked and 'devoured' by jaguars....The symbol of the Fifth Sun, our current epoch, is the face of Tonatiuh, the sun god himself. His tongue, fittingly depicted as an obsidian knife, juts out hungrily, signifying his need for 'nourishment' of human blood and hearts. His features are wrinkled to indicate his advanced age and he appears within the symbol Ollin which signifies Movement. Why is the Fifth Sun known as ''The Sun of Movement''? Because the elders say: in it there will be a movement of the earth and from this we shall all perish." [Page 99 'Fingerprints of the Gods' / G. Hancock].

In this way, the Ego can float as though on the surface of an entirely still lake.

This could explain why, after death, many seemingly healthy elders turn out to harbour advanced signs of Alzheimer's disease in their brains - despite showing few signs in life.

After thought.... If the above authors have a genuine insight on something that could be ‘real ’. Could it be expressed within, say, an equation. Could an hypothesis that A and B, [this world / That one.’ Esoterically’ also known in some cultures as ‘Above and below’, i.e., 'waters' above/below the firmament", [Genesis. ‘Firmament’ by the way is the Hebrew equivalent of that Primordial mound, as well as a link to the word 'horizontal' [i.e.,''horizon''] i.e., 'in-between' sea and rain water. 'See' it?]...be expressed as an Algebraic equation? If so, on what side of the equal sign would ‘B’ be placed if it were indeed ‘Primary’ over ‘A’. Left or right of the equal sign?

Could the above lead to an expression, if only in part; hypothetically; to such physics anomalies as to the weakness of gravity? Especially in relation to Edward Tellers contribution to the understanding of the ‘Fine structure constant’ in relation to gravity. Or as to why Deuterium can only be destroyed and not created inside those nuclear planetry explosions? Which is why most believe Deuterium had to be created shortly after ‘bigbang’. In other words...Does gravity leak from the fourth into the fifth OR from the fifth into the fourth? Or does it 'matter' ?

As in the case with what is termed... ‘imaginary numbers’, [especially the ‘square root of minus one’]. Would they still remain ’imaginary’ especially in relation to ‘Prime’ numbers should ‘B’ exist? Or are they still valid...if only to the observer in ‘A’ ? What about in relation to the obsever in ’B’ ?, [hypothetical only of course]. As is the word ''observer'' and its true deeper meaning [with the above in mind, i.e.,'B' being primary over 'A'] in relation to the 'two slit / photon' experiment. The same could be said for the ''uncertainty'' clause of 'Quantum Mechanics'. If 'B' was a priority over 'A' - does it not make it less so?

"Sacred science subscribes to a holistic approach that incorporates legends, history, experimental evidence, and traditional science to explore various hypotheses regarding the nature of reality.....The principle underlying Sacred science is that no separation exists between spirit and science. Spiritual principles should undergo scientific inquiry, and spiritual integrity should underlie scientific investigation." [ First page, first paragraph [Preface] to the book ' The Science of the Soul' by R. Siblerud].

"The time will come, when the secret wisdom shall again be the dominating religious and philosophical urge of the world: 'out of the cold ashes of lifeless creeds, shall rise phoenix - like, the ancient mysteries .....The unfolding of mans spiritual nature is as much as an exact science as astronomy, medicine, and jurisprudence". [Manly P. Hall].

"Linkage of Entropy with 'Becoming'.... When you say to yourself, 'Every day i grow better and better', science churlishly replies: 'I see no signs of it. I see you extended as a four dimensional worm in space-time; and, although good-ness is not strictly within my province, i will grant that one end of you is better than the other. But whether you grow better or worse depends on which way up i hold you. There is in your consciousness an idea of growth or "becoming" which, if it is not illusory, implies that you have a label "This side up". I have searched for such a label all through the physical world and can find no trace of it, so i strongly suspect that the label is non-existent in the world of reality'..... That is the reply of science comprised in primary law.....

....Taking account of secondary law, the reply is modified a little, though it is still none too gracious: i have looked again and, in the course of studying a property called entropy, i find that the physical world is marked with an arrow which may possibly be intended to indicate which way up it should be regarded. With that orientation i find that you really do grow better. Or, to speak precisely, your good end is in the part of the world with most entropy, and your bad end in the part with the least. Why this arrangement should be considered more creditable than that of your neighbor who has his good and bad ends the other way round, i cannot imagine". Together with....

"The linkage of entropy-change to 'becoming' presents features unlike every other problem of parallelism of the scientific and familiar worlds. The usual relation is illustrated by the familiar perception of colour and its scientific equivalent electromagnetic wavelength. Here there is no question of resemblance between the underlying physical cause and the mental sensation which arises. All that we can require of the symbolic counterpart of colour is that it shall be competent to pull the trigger of a [symbolic] nerve. The physiologist can trace the nerve mechanism up to the brain; but ultimately there is a hiatus which no one professes to fill up,..... Symbolically we may follow the influences of the physical world up to the door of the mind; they ring the door bell and depart".

"At first i thought of the Astral Plane [Explained elsewhere, before those first impressions take hold], as a parallel Space/Time continuum. The idea was heavily influenced by science fiction and, in retrospect, contained a germ of truth. But it was not the whole truth ; not even a good approximation of the whole truth. Later, it seemed the 'Plane' must be Time, considered as a fourth dimension. That idea came from Ouspensky, who argued that a three - dimensional creature operating in a two-dimensional world must produce miraculous effects. It might, for instance, escape from the 'walls' of a square by stepping over them. From a two-dimensional viewpoint, with no conception of height, a miracle would have occurred. Perhaps then miracles in the three dimensional world are simply manifestations of a fourth dimension, imperfectly 'experienced' as Time." [Chapter one, 'Astral Doorways' by J. Brennan].

Question. Coincidence?

The brooch of Odysseus.

The etymology of the name is unknown. Ancient authors linked the name to the Greek verbs odussomai (ὀδύσσομαι) "to be wroth against, to hate",^[8] to oduromai (ὀδύρομαι) "to lament, bewail",^[9][10] or even to ollumi (ὄλλυμι) "to perish, to be lost".^[11][12] Homer relates it to various forms of this verb in references and puns. In Book nineteen of the Odyssey, where Odysseus' early childhood is recounted, Euryclea asks the boy's grandfather Autolycus to name him. Euryclea seems to suggest a name like Polyaretos, "for he has much been prayed for" (πολυάρητος) but Autolycus "apparently in a sardonic mood" decided to give the child another name commemorative of "his own experience in life":^[13] "Since I have been angered (ὀδυσσάμενος odyssamenos) with many, both men and women, let the name of the child be Odysseus".^[14] Odysseus often receives the patronymic epithet Laertiades (Λαερτιάδης), "son of Laërtes".

It has also been suggested that the name is of non-Greek origin, possibly not even Indo-European, with an unknown etymology.^[15] Robert S. P. Beekes has suggested a Pre-Greek origin.^[16] In Etruscan religion the name (and stories) of Odysseus were adopted under the name Uthuze (Uθuze), which has been interpreted as a parallel borrowing from a preceding Minoan form of the name (possibly *Oduze, pronounced /'ot͡θut͡se/); this theory is supposed to explain also the insecurity of the phonologies (d or l), since the affricate /t͡θ/, unknown to the Greek of that time, gave rise to different counterparts (i. e. δ or λ in Greek, θ in Etruscan).^[17]

In the Iliad and Odyssey Homer uses several epithets to describe Odysseus, starting with the opening, where he is described as "the man of many devices" (in the 1919 Murray translation). The Greek word used is πολύτροπον, literally the man of many turns, and other translators have suggested alternate English translations, including "man of twists and turns" (Fagles 1996) and "a complicated man" (Wilson 2018).

A working example: Here some loose ends can be tied up. The maze pattern has been shown to represent 'Spiral Castle' or 'Troy Town', where the sacred Sun-king goes after death and from which, if lucky, he returns. The whole myth is plainly presented on an Etruscan wine-jar from Tragliatella, dated from the late seventh century B.C. Two mounted heroes are shown; the leader carries a shield with a partridge device, and an ape-like demon perches behind him; his companion carries a spear and a shield with a duck device. They are riding away from a maze marked 'TR.UIA' ('Troy'). Apparently the sacred king, though due to die like the partridge in the brushwood maze, and be succeeded by his tanist, has escaped. How he escaped, another picture on the same vase shows: an unarmed king leads a sunwise procession, escorted by seven footmen each carrying three javelins and a huge shield with a boar device; the spear-armed tanist, whose badge this is, brings up the rear. These seven footmen evidently represent the tanist's seven winter months which fall between the apple harvest and Easter.

T is the spear month, the month of the tanist; the bardic letter T was shaped like a barbed spear.

The identification of the pacific Jesus with the holly or holly-oak must be regretted as poetically inept, except in so far as he declared that he had come to bring not peace, but the sword. The tanist was originally his twin's executioner; it was the oak-king, not the holly-king, who was crucified on a T-shaped cross. Lucian in his Trial in the Court of Vowels (about 160 A.D.) is explicit: [Page 176 'The White Goddess'].

The Triple Muse, or the Three Muses, or the Ninefold Muse, or Cerridwen, or whatever else one may care to call her, is originally the Great Goddess in her poetic or incantatory character. She has a son who is also her lover and her victim, the Star-son, or Demon of the Waxing Year. He alternates in her favour with his tanist Python, the Serpent of Wisdom, the Demon of the Waning year, his darker self. [same].

As seen from a different perspective: {i.e.,''three and four''}: "All life forms have cycles of birth, growth, death, and renewal that are mirrored in the progressive of the moon's cycle. Many cultures, in an attempt to conceptualize the wholistic meaning of the moon's cycle, have subdivided it in terms of three phases and four quarters. The threefold division, based on the triangle {which is a feminine polarity image}, consists of three phases: the waxing new moon of increasing light, the full moon that is totally illuminated, and the dark waning moon of decreasing light. The four fold division, derived from the square or cross {which is a masculine polarity symbol}, yields the first quarter moon, the full moon, the last quarter moon, and the new moon, which is back to back with the dark moon {'Janus' link?}. When the fourfold division of the moon's monthly cycle around the earth is again quartered, it yields eight distinct lunar phases. They are named the new, crescent, first quarter, gibbous, full, disseminating, last quarter, and balsamic." [Page 65-68 'Mysteries of the Dark Moon'].

Something extra: ''Paracelsus goes on to discuss a great many arcane remedies, since diseases {'snake bite'?} shorten life and have above all to be cured. The chief among these cures are 'gold' and 'pearls'. A peculiar potency is attributed to Cheyri {yellow wallflower}...which preserves the microcosmic body...not out of the corporeal, but out of that which preserves the corporeal. This is the balsam, the 'life' principle, the spirit of mercury.'' [Pages 135/8 +151 'Alchemical Studies' / C. G. Jung].

''Numbers show us that there is a harmony, a necessary sequence of facts and factors. Multiplication is never situated BEFORE division, just as addition can never precede this division and situates itself between division and multiplication." [Page 107 'The Egyptian Miracle: An Introduction to the Wisdom of the Temple' / R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz].

A working example: ''After the initial set of rituals, there are six texts for the rite of Opening of the Mouth {utts. 37-42}, which together make up the second part of the litergy i.e., the texts on the north wall of the sarcophagus chamber in the pyramid of Unas {Pyramid Texts}. The mouth is split open using an instrument called a peseshkef. The word is composed of two parts: pesesh implies DIVISION and refers to either the shape or function of the instrument {possibly both}, while kef refers to the material out of which it was made - flint. Hence its name means ''the divided or dividing instrument of flint.'' Its exact purpose has been the subject of intense debate.'' [Page 190 'Shamanic Wisdom in the Pyramid Texts' / J. Naydler].

'Flint' to enlarge.

''The Peseshkef, a prehistoric flint knife in the shape of a fish tail, was used in Egypt to cut the umbilical cord at birth, circa 5000 BC. This was the first special-purpose surgical instrument. Because of the importance of rebirth in the Egyptian religion, a stylized knife with magical properties became part of the equipment for the "opening of the mouth" ceremony to permit a mummy to partake of nourishment in the afterlife. It also became the emblem of the birth goddess, Meskhenet.''

REFRESHER: "The Theme, briefly, is the antique story which falls into thirteen chapters and an epilogue, of the birth, life, death and resurrection of the god of the Waxing year; the central chapters concerns the gods losing battle with the god of the Waning year for the love of the capricious and all powerful Threefold goddess....The poet identifies himself with the god of the Waxing year and his Muse with the goddess; his anima; the rival is his blood brother, his other self, his weird {'shadow' aspect}."

"True art has never really had need of words - and were our educators and mentors more intelligent about these things - then they would ensure that the modern theory about the subconscious {which is really the old wine of the initiates} should be applied to theories of aesthetics in a more convincing way.

Something extra: ''I realise that i have been obsessed with removing the dross and scoria that can in fact only be washed away up to a point - beyond which there must always remain a residue of impurity. It is the glory of the Work that its dross also can be raised up. The Albedo can not only suceed inspite of the remaining stain, but because of it. It is the nature of Sol, may he rise never so high, always to bear with him a reminder of the sulphurous darkness where he died and decayed.

''Then finally comes the Lady {of the house?} , who hesitantly and looking surprised, is following the thiasos. Her 'marriage' will be the fulfilment of Dionysian mysteries, but surely only of substitute mysteries, accessible by a back door." [Page 362 'Dionysos' / C. Kerenyi].

"From the state of the male figures it can be inferred that there was drinking in the larger room, probably from a krater placed in the center.....it was a sacred action....in preparation for the Greater Mysteries." [Page 363 same book].

From a different perspective: ''The temple is within man in the sense that man is the temple of the work of nature, just as the temple as human work can only be the image of man...This house is always the symbol of the man who has constructed it....Cosmic man within terrestrial man...We are in a desert when we question ourselves; when in our interrogation we oppose ourselves to the universe, this desert becomes the parvis in front of and outside the temple and then takes on the aspect of an obstacle {Colonnade/ Pavilion / kiosk?}. This dialectic between Ego and Self is the enclosing wall that separates unitary paradise from the universe of creation....Choice opens or closes the door of the temple where light without shadow reveals the cause of the binary world, the world of antinomies...Giving the house to its Master? This expression can have but a single intention, which is to ready the ''house'' {temple or human body} for the coming of the 'Master', who will animate it. Were man not formed in the 'image of god', the breath of divine inspiration could never have animated him....Whoever manages to cross the threshold recognizes that the material, the feminine, the passive, and the aquatic in him is moon, and that the active, the warm, the ardent, and the formless is the sun. He will know that in the world of duality, he projected this moon and sun into the sky. He had forgotten that they were inside him and saw them only from the outside of himself. This is the site, or moment, known as the ''reversal of the lights'' when intelligence comes to the heart." [Pages 19/23 'The Egyptian Miracle: An Introduction to the Temple' / R. A.

And weird shapes within these islands....I'm using my brain in a normal fashion, but its working with the Parkinson in it; its difficult to explain, but I get a great deal of joy from it - I put on the Incredible String Band and the Hangman's Beautiful Daughter and then I start to draw, I don't know if it influences me in the drawing but I feel great when its playing - its a joy, a joyous thing...although it doesn't look like a joyous thing, it looks like a painful thing sometimes - the people seem to be in bizarre odd situations - so I add balance to it."

"Crocodile".

Lizard Point (from Cornish an Lysardh 'the high court') in Cornwall is at the southern tip of the Lizard Peninsula. It is situated half-a-mile (800 m) south of Lizard village in the civil parish of Landewednack and about 11 miles (18 km) southeast of Helston.^[1]

Lizard Point is the most southerly point on mainland Great Britain at 49° 57' 30" N.^[2] With the exception of parts of the Isles of Scilly, it is the southernmost part of England and the wider United Kingdom. Lizard Point is for many ships the starting point of their ocean passage and a well known shipping hazard. The Lizard Lighthouse is situated at Lizard Point. Immediately below the lighthouse, situated in what used to be a hotel, is the YHA Lizard Youth Hostel. The area is famous for its carved serpentine items,^[5] which range from ornaments to the pump handles in the Five Pilchards public house, in Porthallow.

Porthallow, meaning "port at the end of the moor", was a flourishing fishing village in the 13th century. It was first used as a fishing base by Beaulieu Abbey.

Beaulieu Abbey was a Cistercian abbey in Hampshire, England. It was founded in 1203–1204 by King John^[1] and (uniquely in Britain)^[2] populated by 30 monks sent from the abbey of Cîteaux in France, the mother house of the Cistercian order. The Medieval Latin name of the monastery was Bellus Locus Regis ("The beautiful place of the king"') or monasterium Belli loci Regis.^[3] Other spellings of the English name which occur historically are Bewley (16th century) and Beaulie (17th century).^[4]

From a different perspective: ''There is a curious detail which occurs several times in these stories. It is said that so many of the kings were 'blind'. Anysis-Bocchoris, were either perished in, or escaped from, the flames was blind....Sesoosis, who escaped the 'fire', finally became blind, as did Pheros who tried to 'control' the Nile and the 'storm'.....It will be remembered that blindness was much in evidence at Letopolis, the 'Thunderbolt' city. The shrewmouse was sacred there because it was thought to be blind, and the name of the god who preceded Horus there was Mhnty-n-irty: 'He who is without eyes'. The commonly accepted story tells how Horus himself was partially blinded by Seth, the storm god.....It can hardly be by chance that this alleged 'blindness' has been inserted in the classical tales of the Egyptian kings....."

And/or ''Art'' in relation to the ''Theme''. Enlarged throughout.

A working example {i.e., as seen from a different viewpoint. The original one?}: "When I was writing down these fantasies, I once asked myself, 'What am I really doing? Certainly this has nothing to do with science. But then, what is it?' Whereupon a voice within me said : 'It is art'. I was astonished. It had never entered my head that what I was writing had any connection with art. Then I thought: 'Perhaps my unconscious is forming a personality that is not me, but which is insisting on coming through to expression...." [Page 210 'Memories, Dreams and Reflections' / C. G. Jung].

And/or: "At first it was the negative aspect of the anima that most impressed me. I felt a little awed by 'her'. It was like the feeling of an invisible presence in the room. Then a new idea came to me: in putting down all this material for analysis I was in effect writing  letters to the anima, that is, to a part of myself with a different viewpoint from my conscious one." [Page 211 same book].

"Psychology and esotericism set out to explore the darkness outside of our knowledge, whether it be dwelling in the 'unconscious' or the 'astral', the mundus imaginalis, or the dark side of the Tree of Life." [Extract from the book 'The Magister']. Define ''astral'' before those first impressions define something else. Link that answer up to that universal framework.

His ''weird''?

Rene Descartes, French philosopher, mathematician and writer..."While still a young soldier he had a dream in which an angel appeared to him, and revealed to him his mission in life...and how to achieve it. According to his own account of this dream, the 'angel' said to him, 'The conquest of nature is to be achieved by measure and number." [Page 477, 'The Sacred History'].

 

"Egyptian cubits filled with water, are called by me, basic load 'netto', and basic load 'brutto', I have given them these names because they were considered the standard amount that could be carried by a pack ass. In Akkadian these units are called 'imeru', which means "ass". The Masoretic text of the Old Testament uses a different punctuation of vowels under the consonants to distinguish between the term 'hmr' as referring to an ass, and the same term as referring to a unit of measure."

"Empty your mind. Be formless, shapeless, like water. When you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. When you put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you put water into a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Now water can flow....or it can crash. Be water my friend." [Taken from chapter five, 'The Warrior Within' {the philosophies of Bruce Lee} by J. Little.

A working example: ''Good morning. Its sunny but cold this morning and the ice is breaking up, but it sounds amazing. So lets watch the 'ice show' together: Its so cool to watch the tide and the ice come in, smashing up against the rocks. The water nots trying to hold on to something. Its just letting life move through it. I want to be more like that, allowing life to move through me. Not putting my attachments and expectations on everything.'' [Caley: 'Alone: Frozen' / S1 EP5].

Refresher: ''Not out but through.'' {C. Jung}.

"Nothing in nature can bring the mind continuous, unchanging happiness, because the mind itself changes constantly. Although we have the same stomach, we don't want to eat the same food every day. Although we wear the same shape, we don't wear the same outfit every day. The secret of our wanting changes, is that the mind changes. If it were always the same, why would it look for change? If we know that, we can just allow things to change without clinging to them. If something changes, we should let it go - something else will come. We should watch the changes like passing clouds. But normally we don't want to merely watch them. We want to hold onto a section without letting go. Then the tension comes in. Changes are like flowing water. If you just allow water to flow, it is very pleasant to sit and watch. But if you want to arrest the flow, and keep the water to yourself, you will have to construct a dam. Then the water will resist the dam and try to escape. There will be a struggle.

Although you may stop some of the water, another portion will overflow. So you must allow for spill out, or the dam will certainly break....All life is a passing show...If we learn to enjoy each change, we can recognize the beauty even in ageing. A ripe fruit has its own beautiful taste. When we just allow things to pass, we are free. Things will just come and go, while we retain our peace."[ Page 99 / 100 'The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali'].

Side note: "Achernar - the End of the River - known by Arabian astronomers as 'farthest in the Stream'....Ulug Beg called it Al Thalim - the Ostrich - but Hyde rendered this - the Dam - as if blocking the flow of the stream to the south...others called it the Furrow...to denote the track of a vessel...within the Stream of Ocean....It is a solitary star visible from the latitude of New York City in early winter evenings, low down in the south, on the meridian with Menkar of the Whale...Between it and Fomalhaut lie many small stars....called by Arabians Little Ostriches."

''Achernar is the brightest star in the constellation of Eridanus, and the ninth-brightest in the night sky. It has the Bayer designation Alpha Eridani, which is Latinized from α Eridani and abbreviated Alpha Eri or α Eri. The name Achernar applies to the primary component^[14] of a binary system....The system bears the traditional name of Achernar (sometimes spelled Achenar), derived from the Arabic آخر النهر ākhir an-nahr, meaning "The End of the River"....In Chinese caused by adaptation of the European Southern Hemisphere constellations into the Chinese system, 水委 (Shuǐ Wěi), meaning Crooked Running Water, refers to an asterism consisting of Achernar, ζ Phoenicis and η Phoenicis. Consequently, Achernar itself is known as 水委一 (Shuǐ Wěi yī, English: the First Star of Crooked Running Water).''

Side note: ''The word Minnesota comes from the Dakota^[16] name for the Minnesota River, which got its name from one of two words in Dakota: "mní sóta", which means "clear blue water",^[17][18] or "Mníssota", which means "cloudy water".^[19][20] Dakota people demonstrated the name to early settlers by dropping milk into water and calling it mní sóta.^[20] Many places in the state have similar Dakota names, such as Minnehaha Falls ("curling water" or waterfall), Minneiska ("white water"), Minneota ("much water"), Minnetonka ("big water"), Minnetrista ("crooked water"), and Minneapolis, a hybrid word combining Dakota mní ("water") and -polis (Greek for "city").''

Continued: ''The name Achernar derives from the Arabic phrase meaning “the star at the end of the river.” This name was given to Achernar before Acamar was included in the constellation of Eridanus; the latter star is now considered “the end of the river.” In Greek mythology, Eridanus represented the river into which Cygnus dived ...

Continued: ''The origin of the phrase is obscure, with multiple different explanations and no evidence to support any particular one over the others.^[3] For example, a commonly repeated suggestion is that it comes from Hook Head in Wexford, Ireland and the nearby village of Crooke, in Waterford, Ireland. As such, the phrase would derive from a vow by Oliver Cromwell to take Waterford by Hook (on the Wexford side of Waterford Estuary) or by Crook (a village on the Waterford side); although the Wyclif tract was published at least 260 years before Cromwell. Another is that it comes from the customs regulating which firewood local people could take from common land; they were allowed to take any branches that they could reach with a billhook or a shepherd's crook (used to hook sheep).^[4]

Side note: ''The English name of the island may be derived from the Old Norse; either Ǫngullsey "Hook Island"^[8] or Ǫnglisey "Ǫngli's Island".^[8][9] No record of such an Ǫngli survives,^[10] but the place name was used by Viking raiders as early as the 10th century and later adopted by the Normans during their invasions of Gwynedd.^[11] The traditional folk etymology reading the name as the "Island of the Angles (English)"^[12][13] may account for its Norman use but has no merit,^[9] as the Angles' name itself is probably cognate with the shape of the Angeln peninsula. All of them ultimately derive from the proposed Proto-Indo-European root *ank- ("to flex, bend, angle").^[14] Throughout the 18th and 19th centuries and into the 20th, it was usually spelt Anglesea in documents,^[15] a spelling that is still occasionally used today.

Ynys Môn, the island's Welsh name, first appeared in the Latin Mona of various Roman sources.^[16][17][18] It was likewise known to the Saxons as Monez.^[19] The Brittonic original was in the past taken to have meant "Island of the Cow".^[12][20] This view is untenable according to modern scientific philology and the etymology remains a mystery.

Poetic names for Anglesey include the Old Welsh Ynys Dywyll (Shady or Dark Isle) for its former groves and Ynys y Cedairn (Isle of the Brave) for its royal courts;^[13] Gerald of Wales' Môn Mam Cymru ("Môn, Mother of Wales") for its agricultural productivity;^[21] and Y fêl Ynys (Honey Isle).''

A working example {if only from a satirical viewpoint}: ''The cosmic web is the scaffolding of the universe - that spans the void. This web is made mainly of dark matter, a mysterious substance that dominates the universe, although we don't know what it is. One of the great mysteries in modern physics, probably some kind of  particle that reacts very weakly with itself and light - which is why we cannot see it i.e., dark matter. But it does influence the universe with its gravity. It was in the dark heart of the cosmic web that gravity began to sculpt the early universe drawing together the two simpliest elements hydrogen and helium, the raw material for the very first stars....The universe was approaching a TURNING POINT because gravity was asserting its grip.....Out of the maelstrom the first gods emerged and there was light.  The stars illuminate the universe, but that is the least interesting thing they do. The thing that makes the universe interesting and gives MEANING to it is life ...and life is just chemistry...The only thing that existed before the stars was hydrogen and helium....So without the stars the universe would be uninteresting  and MEANINGLESS.''

Archaeologists found the man’s cranium—as well as the skulls of eight other adults and one infant—in the boggy sediment of the Kanaljorden excavation site in Motala, Sweden, in 2012.

''Bog iron is a form of impure iron deposit that develops in bogs or swamps by the chemical or biochemical oxidation of iron carried in solution. In general, bog ores consist primarily of iron oxyhydroxides, commonly goethite (FeO(OH)).

Iron-bearing groundwater typically emerges as a spring and the iron in it forms ferric hydroxide upon encountering the oxidizing environment of the surface....Europeans developed iron smelting from bog iron during the Pre-Roman Iron Age of the 5th/4th–1st centuries BCE, and most iron of the Viking era (late first millennium CE) came from bog iron.^[3] Humans can process bog iron with limited technology, since it does not have to be molten to remove many impurities.^[5] Due to its easy accessibility and reducibility, bog iron was commonly used for early iron production.^[6] Early metallurgists identified bog-iron deposits by indicators such as withered grass, a wet environment, hygrophilous grass-dominated vegetation, and reddish-brown solutions or depositions in nearby waters.''

Continued: "Newton believed that god had set humankind a series of tests in the forms of messages encoded in ancient monuments like the Great pyramid {1224?}, in ancient texts like Genesis and in the very fabric of nature itself {sunflowers?}. Gods plan was that humanity would be intrigued by these mysteries and continue to develop the 'faculty of intelligence' until the time came when it would be able to crack these codes. Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, Newtons rival in the devising of calculus, made his advances while studying the Jewish numerical mysticism of the Kabbalah. Isaac Newton drew deeply on the philosophical approach of Jacob Boehme. Boehme's 'idealism' had led him to look for a unifying principle that held the universe together and put everything within it in place. For Boehme, it was a law of 'love' or 'desire' which he called the lubet. Newton carried the search for a universal principle over from 'idealism' into materialism and called it gravity."

Count the number of spirals in one direction and a Fibonacci number occurs. Count the spirals in the opposite direction and an adjacent Fibonacci number is found. The plant does this so as not to damage the seeds. It spaces them out.'' ['Magic Numbers' by Hannah Fry].

'Spiritual' analogy?..."After the crucifixion, Mary Magdalene goes to the cave tomb of Jesus, she finds it empty...The 'Treatise on the Resurrection' teaches: 'The Saviour swallowed death. You must be perceptive, for by this i mean that he laid aside the corruptible cosmos. He exchanged it for the incorruptible 'eternal' realm. He raised himself up, having 'swallowed' the visible by means of the invisible {'horizontal/vertical' link - this readers input} - and gave us the 'way' to our immortality. This is why Paul said we have suffered with him, and arisen with him, and ascended with him.'...If, as Paul urges, we can understand the mystical meaning of this allegory and 'imitate' Christ, then we will also discover we are 'immortal'. According to Valentinus: 'When we 'destroy' the cosmos and we ourselves are not destroyed, then we know we are 'Lords' over the whole of creation and over all 'decay'." [From the book 'Jesus and the Lost Goddess'. Mentioned elsewhere. Emphasis, this readers].

From a different perspective: ''He saw in a vision the Ultimate Cause of the universe as a huge luminous triangle giving birth every moment to an infinite number of worlds {Brane Theory?}....He had a vision of the divine Maya, the inscrutable power of god, by which the universe is created and sustained, and into which it is finally absorbed {'autopilot' to enlarge}. In this 'vision' he saw a woman of beauty, about to become a 'mother', emerging from the Ganges and slowly approaching the Panchavati. Presently she gave 'birth' to a child and began to nurse it tenderly. A moment later she assumed a terrible aspect, seized the child with her grim jaws, and crushed it. Swallowing it, she re-entered the Ganges. But the most remarkable experience during this period was the awakening of the Kundalini Sakti, the Serpent Power. He actually saw the 'Power' at first lying asleep at the bottom of the spinal column, then waking up and ascending along the mystic Sushumna CANAL and through its six centers, or lotuses, to the Sahasrara, the thousand petalled lotus in the top of the head.''

Headscratch: "To take something seriously, often means to swallow it down, to take it in, and to process it in the depth's of one's own gut experience so that when it is time regurgitate it out - excuse my imagery - it is something fresh and new and reborn...I recently found something that I found very exciting, to do with this swallowing down process. When I looked at the movement of Saturn through its cycle, I noticed that Saturn spends about eight months going forward, from Station Direct to Station Retrograde. Then it turns and goes backwards for about 4-5 months. You know the phrase, 'one step forward and two back'? This is very Saturnian. When you are trying to manifest something or make an improvement in your life, your original intention needs to encompass the periods of time when you do the two steps back, or you fall prey to negative Saturn. Then you think, 'Here we go again, nothing ever changes. Is it always going to be like this?' In other words we totally lose that sense of forward momentum and feel swallowed up. Our sense of well being, creativity, or purpose gets castrated and we get despondent and bogged down..."

So something is nearly born but in a sense has to 'die', has to be reabsorbed to gain more substance {'Crocodile/Hippo'?}. This is the process of Saturn, and Saturn in the chart will show where 'this happens', in relation to what areas of life experience {the house} and it what manner {the sign}. It is where 'struggle' is involved...within the process of time, and the laws of manifestation...It is also an issue central to the sign of Aquarius, which Saturn ruled before Uranus was discovered: the time lag between generating a revolutionary idea {Imhotep?} and its manifestation in form."

Understanding the above gets us closer to ''grasping'' such paragraphs as: "In the Tarot, Saturn is the 'twentyone' {21st} key, the World, symbol of the cosmic consciousness. As in mythology the god Saturn was said to 'eat' his children, so in esoteric psychology we do find that the cosmic consciousness, when it becomes a personal experience, swallows up all its differentiations. And as Saturn was the 'father' of the gods, so is the cosmic consciousness really the source of all other modes of consciousness....Therefore in the books of wisdom the methods that lead to it are sometimes described as the Path of Return."

The full subhead for the 1926 edition describes the book as a “universal library on the beings, characters, books, deeds, and causes which pertain to the manifestations and magic of trafficking with Hell; divinations, occult sciences, grimoires, marvels, errors, prejudices, traditions, folktales, the various superstitions, and generally all manner of marvelous, surprising, mysterious, and supernatural beliefs.”

When de Plancy first published his guide to the world of demons in 1818, he had a reputation as an opponent of superstition and religion. However, in 1841, de Plancy had a change of heart, and converted into a devout Catholic. By the sixth edition of the Dictionnaire Infernal, published in 1863, whether influenced by his conversion or simply thanks to extra resources, de Plancy included illustrations. And it’s a good thing he did, as the bizarre images that accompanied the text are some of the most indelible depictions of demons ever created.

The 1863 edition of the book featured hundreds of spot illustrations, over 60 of which were of specific demons. They were designed by the......

French painter Louis Le Breton, and then engraved as woodcuts by M. Jarrault, both of whom signed many of the illustrations. Their odd depictions of stilt-legged owl men, insect-legged frog-cat kings, and spiral-horned jesters transformed the Dictionnaire Infernal from an occult oddity that could easily have been forgotten to a frightening bestiary that is still referenced and shared today.

Question. If a true appraisal, how could that knowledge have been known?

A working example: ''Bowness' means 'rounded', or bow-shaped headland', from either the Old English 'boga', 'bow', and 'næss', or, more probably, the Old Norse 'bogi' and 'nes''.

Side note: "The Brandenburg Gate is located in the western part of the city centre within Mitte, at the junction of Unter den Linden and Ebertstraße. The gate dominates the Pariser Platz to the east, while to the immediate west it opens onto the Platz des 18. März beyond which the Straße des 17. Juni begins. One block to the north stands the Reichstag building, home to the German parliament (Bundestag), and further to the west is the Tiergarten inner-city park. The gate also forms the monumental entry to Unter den Linden, which leads directly to the former City Palace of the Prussian monarchs (now housing the Humboldt Forum museum), and the Berlin Cathedral.

Throughout its existence, the Brandenburg Gate was often a site for major historical events. After World War II and during the Cold War, until its fall in 1989, the gateway was obstructed by the Berlin Wall, and was for almost three decades a marker of the city's division. Since German reunification in 1990, it has been considered not only a symbol of the tumultuous histories of Germany and Europe, but also of European unity and peace.^[1]

The central portion of the gate draws from the tradition of the Roman triumphal arch, although in style it is one of the first examples of Greek Revival architecture in Germany.^[2] The gate is supported by twelve fluted Doric columns, six to each side, forming five passageways. There are also walls between the pairs of columns at front and back, decorated with classicizing reliefs of the Labours of Hercules. Citizens were originally allowed to use only the outermost two passageways on each side. Its design is based on the Propylaea, the gateway to the Acropolis of Athens,^[2] which also had a front with six Doric columns, though these were topped by a triangular pediment.

The Reichstag dome is a glass dome constructed on top of the rebuilt Reichstag building in Berlin, Germany. It was designed by architect Norman Foster, from an idea of Gottfried Böhm, and built by Waagner-Biro to symbolize the reunification of Germany. The distinctive appearance of the dome has made it a prominent landmark in the city.

And/or: A glass ceiling is a metaphor usually applied to people of marginalized genders, used to represent an invisible barrier that prevents an oppressed demographic from rising beyond a certain level in a hierarchy.^[1] The metaphor was first used by feminists in reference to barriers in the careers of high-achieving women.^[2][3] It was coined by Marilyn Loden during a speech in 1978.^[4][5][6][7]

In the United States, the concept is sometimes extended to refer to racial inequality.^[2][8] Minority women in white-majority countries often find the most difficulty in "breaking the glass ceiling" because they lie at the intersection of two historically marginalized groups: women and people of color.^[9] East Asian and East Asian American news outlets have coined the term "bamboo ceiling" to refer to the obstacles that all East Asian Americans face in advancing their careers.^[10][11] Similarly, a multitude of barriers that refugees and asylum seekers face in their search for meaningful employment is referred to as the "canvas ceiling".

Continued: "In recent years Roger Penrose has made a pioneering attempt to combine neurophysiology with physics. He suggested that structures within neurons - microtubules - could be the seat of the quantum computations that are the dynamics behind thinking. But these are not simply logical computations, because quantum physics, which includes the uncertainty principle, and the concept of ambiguity, introduces an indefinable extra ingredient - intuition. This element is not addressed in any of the research programs mentioned here, and is a critical shortcoming. Pauli and Jung emphasized its importance, as did Einstein and other scientists when they recalled how they had made their discoveries. The puzzle of how we reason, how we think - of how we create knowledge from already existing knowledge and how we draw conclusions that go beyond the premises [or 'boundaries'?] , cannot be solved by logic alone." [Same book].

This subject does include that one missing ''element.'' From 'its' beginning to the present date. Found within. [Try ''intuitive'' as well as ''intuition''].

Question. If that assessment turns out to be a valid one. What does that imply?

"We are stuck with our own intuitive stranger...By accepting our inner stranger, we may come to a better understanding of our own minds." [From the program 'Horizon' {BBC2?} 'How You Really Make Decisions' by Daniel Kahneman].

"For a long time i confused intuitive consciousness with cerebral consciousness, but the later is, only a record of our mental operations...Consciousness is a state of identification. To become conscious of anything is to recognize in oneself this identity: it is to experience. The artisan who identifies with the material with which he is working experiences its nature and reaction in himself. He becomes conscious of it...The awakening of the instinctive consciousness takes place. In a more subtle way, this will be the awakening of our intuitive faculties {cognitive?}, whose exercise creates in us the intuitive state..." ['Journey into Light'].

REFRESHER: As seen from a different perspective {that first one?}: "When the zodiac is considered as a process of cyclic development, the signs of the zodiac can be shown to have a certain definite meaning...The number twelve is significant in ancient and modern numerology, as being the product of 4 and 3 {enlarged elsewhere}...The division of the signs into 'four elements' {fire, earth, air, water} - or into three types {cardinal, fixed, mutable} - is not a division produced by a sequence in time, but by a kind of segmentation of the whole into the parts - as when a fertilized egg divides into cells, which in turn divide into a group of cells, forming the basic tissues, then organs, of the embryo. The basic division is into four ''elements''. The concept of ''elements'' and in medieval times ''humors'', or in the modern times of ''psychological functions and types'' in Jung's psychology, or that of the 4 ''dimensions'' of space-time, is the result of a very basic intuition of the nature of reality {but only when that ''bit'' is taken into account?} - We define reality as the ''sum result of human experience'', and every experience has form {Plato's forms?]; that is to say, it is at once located in a ''frame of reference'', which is constituted by the three dimensions of space, and by time. Today we speak of ''space-time'' as a four dimensional structure of experience. Every experience implies a more or less immediate sensing of the way in which the cause of the experience fits into our space-time human world. The four dimensions of space-time are therefore the four ''elements'' of experience." [Page 12 'The Zodiac as the Universal Matrix' / Dane Rudhyar. Underlined aspect - this readers input].

"When they become self-aware like 'Adam', [key] they may reveal news of the 'Knower' and that which He knows. One of them dove down into the ocean of Oneness and said, 'I am the truth'. Another rode in a boat on the same ocean, and told of how near or far he was from shore. One looks on the outside and talks of dry land, while gathering shells, and the other plunges into the ocean and gets the pearl. One starts talking about the bits and parts of things, how they appear and function. Another begins telling of the Eternal one and then of creatures who live and die. One speaks of long curls of hair, the 'beauty' spot, the curves of her eyebrows, the 'beloved' man in dim candle light, [key] passing a goblet of wine. The other speaks only of himself and his opinions. And the other loses himself in idol's love, identifying himself with the monks rope around his waist. Each one speaks the language native to the 'level' he has reached, and it is hard to understand what he says.... You the seeker of understanding, you must strive [key] to learn the meaning of what they say." [Extract taken from a poem by the Persian Sufi known as Mahmud Shabistari.

"Our attitude should be that of reasonable enquiry and our interest that of the investigating philosopher, willing to accept an hypothesis on the basis of its possibility, but being unwilling to acknowledge as proven truth anything until we know it for and in ourselves. I, an aspirant to the higher mysteries, and one who has searched into them for a longer period than has been possible as yet to many, may write of things as yet impossible of demonstration, to you or the public, who may read these instructions. To me they may be and are truth and proven fact and for me that may suffice. For you they should be regarded as significant possibilities and hints to the direction in which truth may be sought, but beyond that you should not permit yourself to go."

Something to ponder on: "When we think about the future, we envision a version of the present: that the TV shows, movies, and singers who matter most today will be the ones remembered in 100 years. History, says otherwise, Chuck Klosterman argues in 'But what if we're wrong? Thinking about the present as if it were the past'. The works that endure, he says, are the ones that future societies find meaningful, whether they're valued in their day or not. Herman Melville's 'Moby Dick' was scorned when it came out, and Franz Kafka was dead before 'The Trial' saw print. So which of today's writers will be remembered. Probably not Philip Roth or Jonathan Franzen, Klosterman says, but someone writing in obscurity {perhaps on the deep web}, representing an ultra-marginalised group and covering subjects that can be completely reinterpreted by future readers..."
