Power 4: Shaman (Twilight)

Posted at 10:20 pm MST to Net of Mirrors

Alternate Image Izanagi returning from the halls of death pursued by 8 thunder serpents.

Interpretation He is the Dreamer, the wise man, the horned hunter of souls: Odin and Herne, the Autumn God of the West. Hunter and Deer, sacrificer and sacrificed for wisdom's sake, rider of the world tree. He wanders as he wills among the abodes of the living and the dead and the Powers, and not as others journey, and his own dwelling place is hidden, but he may serve as a guide, or a rescuer.

Reversal Wisdom is sought and not found. The gates between the worlds are locked. Neither a guide nor a rescue is available.

Key 8 of Wood: Completion of the Wood, Completion of Consciousness (Bright)

Posted at 10:19 pm MST to Net of Mirrors

Alternate Image A thicket of branches. If you look closely, the branches make the shapes of deer and wolves and other forest creatures

Interpretation All of the forests are part of the Forest, all of the small ecological niches are meshes of the web of Life. The whole is greater than the sum of the parts. The deer and wolves keep the Forest healthy.
