At some future time all the animals will gather and question the Serpent: ‘The lion attacks and devours; the wolf tears and consumes; what advantage do you possess”? And the Serpent will answer them: ‘What advantage is given those who over-use their tongue?’

How long will you go about like this, O you backsliding daughter? For the LORD has created a new thing in the world, a woman will encompass a man.

Elemental Time
It’s unsurprising that noon and summer would be associated with fire, and by that same logic, the full moon should also be in the same category….Earth, in the opposite direction as fire, therefore corresponds with midnight, winter, and the new moon….Air is the element of new beginnings, youth, increase and creativity. As such, it is associated with spring, the waxing moon, and sunrise…Water is the element of emotion and wisdom, particularly the wisdom of age. It represents a time past the peak of livelihood, moving toward the end of the cycle.

The Babylonians regarded the 7 planets as deities, and these (says W. O. E. Oesterly) were the prototype of the Judaeo-Christian Archangels.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

A Journal of Personal Revelation from a Liberal Panentheist.
"Touched by the hand of God, youth immortalized, wearing his golden crown of glory. A symbol of strenght and power for his Macedonian comrades in war. Him military genius too great to be wasted in Europe, he looked east, to conquer Persia, the greatest kingdom of all. More than a conquer, an intellectual with a team of all the finest minds in the world. Visualizing a universal empire for all, he left the legacy of the greatest empire the world has ever seen"
