I wanted to continue where I left off before, I am at the font of inspiration and while I still feel like talking I would like to continue talking.
The image to your left is a common image in Kundalini yoga. It shows the the chakra or energy centers that the Kundalini energy coiled at the basis of the spine (snake imagery again). Do you see that cadeceus looking thing. That helical shape, In some pcitures you can see clearly that each sinsuoidal wave that is different, Why do you I say that. One represents the solar consciousness one lunar consciousness, one an active element one a passive. When the kundalini is raised in the aspirant he is transformed, Is the link apparents between the tiresias story of the generative power of the two snakes in copulation ( representing make and female energies) or rather a unification of opposites being a vehicle for a greater mystery to manifest itself.
The sun is a beautiful think it is the epitomuy of timelessness it is the epitomy of reason rational, why because it shine and illuminates all the same way each time. The path of the sun can be measured, you can establihs a frame of time through it, Like the old testament patriarchs it separates day into night, it operates on the heavens and on the earth. In greek mythology the Sun has always been attributed to Apollo and Helios. What are the qualities of Apollo – Apollo has been variously recognized as a god of light and the sun; truth and prophecy; archery medicine and healing; music, poetry, and the arts. We should not forget the god of logic and reason.
Interesting to note that Luna, the goddess of the Moon. The moon is never the same always waxing and waning if we take the analogy from the Carmina Burana almsot like the 3 fates, new moon middle age moon old moon. Anyways, the moon inspires where as the sun illuminates, a muse, a source of inspiration is always depicted as a women, she inspires, she gives the artist and inutional understanding of the scene he has to create in either painting or sculpture form. She the moon has control over the seas.The lunar deity has three different aspects: Diana in the heavens, Luna on earth, and Hecate, goddess of witchcraft, in the underworld.
The magical the mysterious world is always present at every moment waiting to manifest in the action of human beings, the witch or the the magical arts in mythology tells secrets in a way that isnt like the gift of prophecy bestowed upon by Apollo or Zeus. Through intuitional feelings and understands of signs, the knowledge of the Gods can be ascertained by mortals. Isnt it interesting that there are three witches in Macbeth.
The role of the women in mythology is always to inspire and oing so show the hero the secrets needed to overcome his trials and tribulations. The Sun,illumination is the job of the sun, when the sun is other nothing is hidden by its rasys, when the Sun retires for the night we have to be kinnd by an inner more mysterious sense.
The dawn has been an image used for a long time, the triumph of the spiritual aspirant is reffered to the dawn of their awakening, they have emerged from the dark night of the soul or the dark night where they had only been able to be seen and guided by the heart to navigate their way, and after a long apprenticeship seeing and feelign with the heart they have once again united with the solar consciousness.
It is through women that a man in finally initiated into the greater mysteries, the mysteries of Isis and Serapis are perfect examples. I can go on and on, until the break of dawn lol love the sugar hill gang. But i hope you have enjoyed my posts today. I am done
