T O P I C R E V I E Wsalomegreetings Linda Land ~i've found it necessary to changemy user name here yet again...i rather enjoy changing it time to time, i don't mind telling peoplemy previous name though....and i never use 2 names simultaneously....anyway, i apologize to those whosuffer frustration at user namechanges.....please forgive. love salome....formerly Hedgwitch ------------------I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.I learn by going where I have to go.theodore roethkeSunChildThat's cool Nice to meet you again! May I ask what 'Salome' means?salomesalome was the legendary stepdaughter of king harod. i don'tthink her name is mentioned inthe bible though.some say she requested the headof john the baptist from harod,others say it was her mother whoasked her to do so....well, i believe none of it;people have demonized women foreons. i think her dance of the seven veils has many mysticaland spiritual implications.here's an interesting example ~ quote:To the ancients, The Sun, The Moon and, later, The Planets were the visible symbols of The Divine. As they studied the movements and cycles of each celestial body, they associated these heavenly lights with natural attributes in the world around them. Through the evolution of astrology, magick and philosophy, The Seven Wanderers (The Sun, Moon and the five visible Planets) became the symbols of the most significant powers both in Nature and in The Human Spirit. For the mystic, the Seven Planetary Powers are the steps on the stairway to the highest state of enlightenment. Perceived as seven tiers on the moutain of Heaven, each sphere is associated with a state of enlightened concsiousness. It is known that the Merkabah Mystics (the precursors of the medieval Qabalists) worked with the Planetary Powers. Their techniques involved traveling through each of the "Seven Heavens" in succession and learning about each through direct experience. But of course, the celestial bodies were only the symbols of the successive veils of experience within the mystic's own soul. The Seven Veils of Mystical Experience:Imagination (Dreams) Reason Passion Bliss (Love, Agape) Divine Courage Divine Compassion Divine Knowledge (Gnosis) http://ggms.com/asherah/veils.htm thanks for asking,love and light to you Sunchild salome------------------I wake to sleep, and take my waking slow.I learn by going where I have to go.theodore roethkeSunChildThat's very interesting, thanks for sharing. I'll have more time to comment more tomorrow.
