elemental, my dear
Water – pure spiritual influences and feelings of love
Fire – emotional influences and base passions
Air – mental influences and the process of thought
Earth – physical influences and the impact of the unseen on the visible world
What about the Oriental elements you ask?… or the Wu Xing maybe?
Wood begets Fire begets Earth begets Metal begets Water which nourishes Wood. (generating)
Wood parts Earth absorbs Water quenches Fire melts Metal chops Wood. (overcoming)
We, as spirits, reside within the ether or space between all elements. Perhaps a ‘heart’ space where our dreams are the reality, but have no exact effect on the overall miasma, at least not without incarnation.
The five elements lead to a pentagonal cycle which feeds itself over time, or space depending upon viewpoint. Insulting/destroying and creating/overacting seems to be the modus operandi Here.
What is the ether we breathe?… is it the air or something more scatter-shot or drug-tinged? something to spread the rumors and the memes like cancerous warts forcing our hands into pies we must not touch?
The words and tones we use are derived into these speeches we have come to learn as fact. Language. The magickal encapsulation that humans have been manifesting and manipulating for centuries upon centuries, and what forces guide these explorations through the psyche?
The parallels are everywhere Here… Sleep equals death equals ether equals time/space equals birth? what about the ‘octaves’ of existence? what about the Fourth Way, what about just the Way (Tao), or is this all too simple?
What exists after we awake?… Birth into sleep and back around again. where do we awake after the dreaming? is the sinister meaning really left-handed at all, or is it the bias of extreme options, thoughts that have winnowed down whatever truth may be interpreted as by the filters we find necessary.
