A Rainbow Serpent Myth, Earth to Gold.

A Rainbow SERPENT Myth, Earth to Gold.

~

Concentration of lower mind,

four into three triangulated;

id, libido, ideas and mortido,

elements into Metals aglow.

Earthen id, instinctual animal,

chthonic serpent asleep encoiled;

basic drives to survive and thrive,

language of fight, flight or freeze.

Watery libido in the ego's world,

serpent enters the human realm;

lexicon of emotion, id in motion,

lust into feelings by civilization.

Airy ideas bubble-up from water,

formations of a serpent "talker;"

powerful concepts got us to the moon,

memories can live three score and ten.

Fiery spark of mortido catches!..

blackens, burns and resurrects;

stolen language from the god's,

serpent fire for apotheosis.

Flaming wings to silvery Moon,

forges the "Helmet of salvation;"

a New Skin hermetically sealed,

Grail for the holy Wine to fill.

"The Moon turns to Blood" at last,

heavenly marriage of the serpent;

wedding night of enLovenment,

the Sun dawns, enLightenment.

Three as one triangulated,

Observer, Wine and Bread;

refined Salt, Mercury and Sulfur,

higher Mind, Spirit and Soul .

~

Holy libation for my sleeping god,

offered up in the Grail forged;

distilled Love, water to Wine,

  universal rainbow Serpent-Stone.

"The death of earth is to become water, 
and the death of water is to become air, 
and the death of air is to become fire, and reversely.
He who hears not me but the Logos

will say: all is one."  Heraclitus, 500 BCE.
