John, Thank you for sharing that. It was a little missing piece that goes with this fabulous picture that I found of the "Aquarius-Snake" from Eastmeetswest.com. A blending of East and West astrological with the "Year of" animal. I love the one that represents my husband and want to paint it someday. I am going to add these words that you sent! Thought I would share the picture with you.
Which song was that from in Pink Floyd? Still listen to them a lot! Saw them live in 72! What a memory.

How does it inform your work? > In Marylin Ferguson's "Aquarian Conspiracy," she talks about how she named her book. She was noticing that there seemed to be a "movement" afoot over the entire planet (mid-to-late 80's). It was as though people from all walks of life were suddenly waking up and wanting something more. It was a silent awakening. Nobody rang a bell or sent a memo, yet they were showing up by the thousands. She believed there to be new life in this awakening -- this gathering, so to speak. Two thoughts stirred in her. One was that this new life was like a sip of water on the lips of a yearning civilization. This put her in mind of Aquarius -- the water bearer. The other thought was that this awakening-gathering was like a conspiracy. At first, she didn't like that word because it sounded a bit sinister. But then she realized that the actual meaning of the word "conspire" is to breathe together -- to breathe as one. That's when she decided to name her work "Aquarian Conspiracy." Water bearers breathing together -- "life carriers" breathing as one. The 3rd stanza of "On The Turning Away" says: On the wings of the night As the daytime is stirring Where the speechless unite In a silent accord. Using words you will find are strange Mesmerized as they light the flame Feel the new wind of change On the wings of the night Perhaps this is how Pink Floyd described the same phenomena. This is a portion of what I hear when I listen to my breath...
