The Moon
|
|
|
This
embryonic
being
has
woken up
in the
dark
realm,
splintered
in two..
One half
looks
down
into the
black
reflecting
pool,
while
the
other
looks up
in
somber
awakening
to the
depths
of its
situation.
The
night
realm of
the Moon
is
alive,
for it
draws
into
itself
the
energies
of the
Earth -
consuming.
Its
ghostly
beings
show
themselves
at this
hour,
the
stone
Moon
temple
by day
is a
silvery
veiled
presense
by
night. A
lone
figure,
standing
before a
doorway
too
narrow
for it
to pass
through,
bleeds
obliviously
upon a
cave of
skulls.
The
walled
up
doorways
foment
isolation,
imprisonment,
being
shut out
-
Maddness
locked
up, not
dealt
with.
For an
intense
moment
the
snake
knows
with the
attack
of the
eagle,
that
there is
much
more to
life
than
land-crawlers..The
Moon
symbolizes
the
passage
out of
such
innocence.
