"Quite" Fajita. on page 444 of Star Signs Linda tells the reason. It`s for the word druids becuz they " think of themselves as nearly human, these druid words, and they refer to each other as we do i.e. "themselves" as myself, himself,herself,yourself and ourself just like we do. But unlike us, the word druids are only too painfully aware of the need for seperation within the words and the reason for the need"..... and that takes us into the serpent mystery. Not a direct quote but close. Sound confusing? I highly recommend Star Signs to fill out the explaination. I like to think also it`s the elf in each of us that makes us unique individuals.
