I would respect this alot more if he would have predicted 9/11 before it happened.
But alas, psychics usually only see the future after it happens.

see the problem is, they usually dont know what to make of what they see in their visions. which is why they dont figure out the true meaning of the vision until after the fact. think about it, why would alex grey think anything out of the ordinary about this vision? two planes, two large towers, a dick standing next to a man in a suit, next to a middle eastern-esque man, next to a dick with horns. none of us would have thought much about that in the early 90's.
i mean hell, one of the worlds most renowned prophets in history, nostradamus, didnt know what to make of most of his visions.

The twin towers were icons for the power and wealth of the USA, the current superpower of the world. That was why they were targetted and that was why it was such a decisive and shocking blow. It just wouldn't have been the same if they hit a department store. That's also why Grey painted them. Phallic symbols commonly represent power, both the penis and the towers are phallic symbols. Also, white men in suits run the USA. Might I remind you that Bush Sr. was in power at the time? '89 was just before the gulf war. Then, as now the focal point of conflict was on the middle east. So how can this be a coincidence? Hmm... these symbols were floating around in Grey's mind, as they would be any member of our culture at the time and they came together in a painting. That's how this stuff works.

has anyone ever heard the term "synchronicity." you people should know by NOW that there is no such thing as a coincidence, everything happens for a reasonl
