Hence it is his task to conduct the souls of the dead to the Lower World [Black Lodge]. Like Hecate, he is often triform, that is, represented with three heads [DMT].  He epitomizes the power of the spoken word— the emblem of the word ; and for the Gnostics he was the logos spermatikos scattered about the universe, an idea which was taken up by the alchemists who equated Mercury with related concepts of fluency and transmutation (9). At the same time, he was seen as a god of road (that is, of potentialities) (4). In astrology he is defined as ‘intellectual energy’. The nervous system is controlled by him, for the nerves are messengers on the biological plane (40). Probably it was the alchemist, with their lofty speculations, who penetrated farthest into the archetypal structure of Mercury.  In many cases they identified their transmutation-substance with the ‘lively planet’…Mercury (the metal) symbolizes the unconscious because of its fluid and dynamic character ; it is essentially duplex, for, in one way, it is an inferior being, a devil or monster, but in another sense it the philosopher’s child [DMT] (33). Hence, its unlimited capacity for transformation (as in the case of all liquids) came to be symbolic of the essential aim of the alchemist to transmute matter (and spirit) from the inferior to the superior, from the transitory to the stable.”[5]].]…. “Fluidity is everything.” [Principle]… “Iceland.” [HQT]….kissing Josie…glasses back on …. “Why do I sense that this isn’t a negotiable position?

The quest for death— extremes meet (because of the curve of the conceptual line)— is apparent in limit-situations, not only in the negative aspect but also— and principally— at the peak of the affirmative.  That is, vital optimism and perfect happiness of necessity imply the other extreme, that is, the presence of death.” [6]]…..white belt buckle [AT]…mouth open….looking upward…..flag pin for Gordon [HQT]….. “Who are you?” [WRQ: Channeling]… “I am an inhabiting spirit.” [DMT: WRQ: HQT: MNT]…. “Who is Philip Gerard?”….[“He is host to me.” [WRQ].]…“You spoke to me in my dream.” [WRQ]…. “About Bob.”… “He was my familiar.” [WRQ: HQT]…. “Where does Bob come from?” [WRQ]…. “That cannot be revealed.” [HQT]….. “What does Bob want?”… “He is Bob [eager for fun.]”…. “He wears a smile.”… “Everybody run.” [AT]…. “[Do you understand the parasite?
