Self Examination and Ego Dislocation

Here we have a Systematic Ego Deconstruction. This is where the Sword of Discrimination comes in to help strip away layers of self delusion a.k.a. the ego.  There is no blade so harsh and exacting as the one welded by your own hand.  Swords and self examination, apropos during the current Neptune Retrograde.  Interesting that one of the major myths of the west, that of the King, Arthur, involves such a sword emerging from a body of water.  Indeed, all swords must be tempered before they are complete.  Curiouser and Curiouser.

Body of Light III: Samadhi

Funny, I'd never looked that closely at the definition of Samadhi before now.  How fascinating that it is so closely associated with equilibrium (Ape of Thoth)  Also upon further viewing this piece begins to remind me of the Aeon card in the Thoth tarot deck.  With two elements becoming a new third in the form of the child Horus.  This image kind of looks as though there is a child emerging from within the larger figure.
