Scuzi, per favore. Can I sip nectar from the lips of the sleeping goddess, caress her as she rises and catch her blinking eyes? May I share the morning light through crystalline reflection? Let it burst into a thousands slices and feed each point and palace from dusty planes to ascendant peaks. Recline in sylvan bows of ferns an feathers, as if held by the nature's motherly embrace. Release fully into my body, beyond my body, beyond my mind, through my heart into the pulse of creation. Can I sing to the birds? And if I do, will they respond?
In Cabbalistic symbolism, the sacred palace, or the ‘inner palace’, is
located at the junction of the six Directions of Space which, together with this
centre, form a septenary. It is, consequently, a symbol of the occult Centre—of
the ‘unmoved mover’ (28). It is also known as the ‘silver palace’, the ‘silver
thread’ being the hidden bond which joins man to his Origin and to his End (28).
This concept of the Centre embraces the heart and the mind; hence, in legends and
folktales, the palace of the old king contains secret chambers (representing the
unconscious) which hold treasure (or spiritual truths). Loeffler suggests that
palaces made of glass or of mirrors, and also those which suddenly appear as if by
magic, are specially symbolic of the ancestral memories of mankind—of the
basic, primitive awareness of the Golden Age (38).

For a young woman of moderate means to dream that she is a participant in the entertainment, and of equal social standing with others, is a sign of her advancement through marriage, or the generosity of relatives.
This is often a very deceitful and misleading dream to the young woman of humble circumstances; as it is generally induced in such cases by the unhealthy day dreams of her idle, empty brain. She should strive after this dream, to live by honest work, and restrain deceitful ambition by observing the fireside counsels of mother, and friends.

In the Egyptian system of hieroglyphics, the whole process of
creation is expressed by four signs: the spiral, as the symbol of cosmic energy; the
squared spiral, as the symbol of the workings of this energy within the heart of
matter; a formless mass, of self-evident meaning; and the square, as a symbol of
organized matter (19). There is, then, a duality of the greatest theoretical importance—two paths: that by which abstract energy develops towards energy as an
organizing force, and that followed by pure matter towards a state of matter ruled
by a given order. Here lies the explanation of the process of all creation in its two
most essential aspects: that of energy-content, and that of material form.

In the vertical scheme of the human body, the focal points are three in
number: the brain, the heart and the sexual organs. But the central point is the
heart, and in consequence it comes to partake of the meanings of the other two.
The heart was the only part of the viscera left by the Egyptians in the mummy,
since it was regarded as the centre indispensable to the body in eternity; for all
centres are symbols of eternity, since time is the motion of the periphery of the
wheel of phenomena rotating around the Aristotelian ‘unmoved mover’. In traditional ways of thought, the heart was taken as the true seat of intelligence, the
brain being merely instrumental (25); hence, in ancient attempts to explain the
profound and continuing analogies between concepts, the moon was said to
correspond to the brain and the sun to the heart. All representations of the
‘Centre’ have been related in some way to the heart, either through correspondences or through substitution, as in the case of the goblet, the coffer and the
cavern. For the alchemists, the heart was the image of the sun within man, just as
gold was the image of the sun on earth (32). The importance of love in the mystic
doctrine of unity explains how it is that love-symbolism came to be closely linked
with heart-symbolism, for to love is only to experience a force which urges the
lover towards a given centre. In emblems, then, the heart signifies love as the
centre of illumination and happiness, and this is why it is surmounted by flames,
or a cross, or a fleur-de-lis, or a crown (4).

The 12th-century writer Alan of Lille, in his De planctu naturae,
describes Nature as an allegorical figure wearing a diadem set with jewels in
imitation of the stars: twelve stones symbolize the signs of the Zodiac and seven
stand for the Sun, the Moon and the five planets (14). This concept is wholly
astrobiological in character, since it partakes of the tendency to bring the discipline of numbers to bear upon living things, and to infuse the astral, the mineral
and the abstract with the vital forces of plant and animal life.
