I've been subscribed to Clarity's emails for a long time. I think she doesn't send much these days, or haven't been paying attention, though the I Ching has now got it.

The king and the dark bird.
Once upon a time there was as a bird who had dark impulses and visited a wise hermit for counsel. "You are the king over your impulses" said the hermit "Take heed to your mind and not let your heart rule your head." The dark bird thanked the hermit and returned to his knoll where he took the hermit's council and feasted on the king's grain.

That was off-the-cuff and could use some finessing.

The bird was likened to the eclipse or Wounding of the Light, reminding also of Rahu.

Quote:
Rahu, also known as "Dragon's Head" in Vedic astrology, is one of the nine celestial bodies or planets considered in Hindu astrology. In Vedic astrology, Rahu is an imaginary or shadowy planet, not a physical celestial body like the Sun or Moon. It is depicted as a head of a demon or serpent.
In Hindu mythology, Rahu is associated with the legend of the churning of the cosmic ocean (Samudra Manthan) by the gods (Devas) and demons (Asuras) to obtain the elixir of immortality (Amrita). During the churning, Rahu, a demon, disguised himself as a god and managed to drink a few drops of the elixir. Before he could swallow it, the Sun and the Moon, who noticed his deception, alerted Lord Vishnu. Lord Vishnu then swiftly beheaded Rahu with his Sudarshan Chakra (a divine discus). However, because Rahu had already consumed a few drops of the elixir, his head became immortal, and he became a separate celestial body.
In astrology, Rahu is considered a malefic or shadow planet, associated with various aspects such as:
Ambition and desire: Rahu represents material desires, ambition, and craving for worldly achievements and success.
Obsession: It is associated with obsessive tendencies and an unquenchable thirst for fulfillment.
Illusions and deceptions: Rahu is linked to illusion, deception, and a tendency to see things differently from reality.
Unexpected events: It is associated with sudden and unpredictable events, both positive and negative.
In Vedic astrology, Rahu and its opposite, Ketu (the "Dragon's Tail"), are known as the lunar nodes. They are points where the Moon's orbit intersects with the ecliptic plane of the Earth. The movement of Rahu and Ketu is considered significant in Vedic astrology, as they are believed to influence a person's destiny and karmic patterns.
It's important to note that astrology, including the interpretation of Rahu, is a complex and multifaceted belief system with cultural and philosophical significance in various societies. Different astrologers may have varying interpretations and perspectives on the significance of Rahu and its effects on individuals' lives.

I suppose we're lucky if it's only manifesting as relatively minor (ahem) addiction problems, currently anyway.

Reminds me I've been wanting to share a vision. I was in japa some time ago, and fairly well absorbed, in dark bliss void; it was becoming integrated nicely. My mantra vibrated like a song in the darkness and was blissfilled exhilarance. The form of an African village woman appeared in my vision, and was raising her hands to me, sharing joy and urging on.
Now and then there is some connection to powerful wonderful spirit in that heritage, and it reminded as around that time Asante was talking about associations.
Not isolated to that heritage though are the experiences, but this one so notable. Heritage as such is not relevant to me, but she had the get up of a villager like Masai or something, and to connect with indigenous spirit like that, salt of the earth and really high in heart.
I have with native americans some. I think a time or two with aborigine looking fellows from down under. All kinds. This is not to mention those that appear to be from higher realms, middling, and lower, but not so much of the earth.
All in my head, fine. Doctors don't lock me up.

Looking at that song again, what's the gator in the hermetarotology?
Oh yeah, the crocodile plays in the Fool card.
