Fate, don't fail me now

I was on YouTube to see if the 13th Floor Elevators' version of "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" was any good. (It isn't.) The next thing the algorithm served up was "Speed the Collapse" by Metric, which I'd never heard.


Both the title and the lyrics sync with the idea (see "I am that Enkidudal boy") that my "mission" for this month is represented by the Tower card.

Herbie Hancock has a funk album called Feets don't fail me now.

Laeth,
And feets would be more appropriate as Pisces , which is
William's Zodiac sign, rules the feet.

William,
Part 1 of 2
I found it most interesting the many references
to doors in the Speed the Collapse lyrics.
Recall my perspective about you knocking
at the door but hesitant to go in,
which interestingly appear in the lyrics.
Copy and paste;
Pushed away, I'm pulled toward
A comedown of revolving doors
******Every warning we ignored***
Drifting in from distant shores
~~~~~
Interesting the reference to 'distant shores'
which I take to mean acquiring information
from a vast spectrum of ideologies
not just one.

Regarding 'warn' perhaps not necessarily
meaning that something 'evil' is lurking
behind the door.
Copy and paste from etymology:
warning(n.)
"Notice beforehand of the consequences
 that will probably follow continuance
 in some particular course"
~~~~~~~~~
I believe that indeed what's on the other
side of a door can be scary because
it may contradict everything we think we know,
which scares us.
 
However scary does not necessarily mean demonic.
It's only when we ignore the dark we never
find the truth, which that uncertainty
 causes chaos which it appears
the lyrics suggests that as well.
copy and paste:
"We auctioned off our memories
In the absence of a breeze
****Scatter*** what remains
Scatter what remains"
~~~~
Copy and paste from etymology online: asterisks mine
scatter(v.)
"mid-12c., scateren, transitive, "to squander;" c. 1300,
"to separate and drive off in ****disorder;" late 14c.,
"to throw loosely about, strew here and there,"
~~~~~
Also perhaps hidden in the lyrics is one of a black
hole collapse which may explain
 your whore' and nigredo syncs and puzzle pieces
Keep in mind, I'm speaking metaphorically, NOT literal.

Remember everything is symbolic in
the paranormal.
Copy and paste;
"Carl Jung's concept of synchronicity
 refers to the simultaneous occurrence
 of events that are ****meaningfully related
 but lack a direct causal connection.

 He believed that these coincidences
 can reveal deeper meanings and insights
 into our psyche and the world around us."
~~~~~~~~~
I believe this as well. If our soul wants us
to know something our soul will cross our paths
with meaningful ' coincidences' aka syncs,
 which become puzzle pieces needed to solve
the big picture.

I personally have several puzzle pieces that
has meaningful connections to this song's 
lyrics
so thank you for posting it.

For me this song's collapse reference connects
to my big picture ( which I have shared
a gazillion times on your blog ) which
is my perspective of humanity being on the 
precipice of the end of an age.

 And that is especially true of my 1974
 Past Life reading which
for me was a HUGE puzzle piece that I'm just
now understanding its significance.

Case in point in the lyrics:
"The ***wind presents a change of course***
A second reckoning of sorts
We were wasted waiting for
A comedown of revolving doors
Fate, don't fail me now"
~~~~~

part 2
Recall my many comments about
why I believe the symbolic
significance of the wind/air energy.

Birds are wind/air energy. So was/is Hermes
with his swiftness of feet. 
 Thoth was an air deity because Thoth had 
the head of a bird ( Ibis)
and knew the bird language.

 Words, thoughts,
communication, knowledge are all air energy.
Odin was an air deity.
Aquarius is an air sign.
(see wind/air deities link below)

Recall my recent connection about the Sirens
who were bird/ fish women.
As above, so below.
 

 I believe that it is wind air energy
 that gives us ability of free will
which the song lyrics references as well :
 "The wind presents
a change of course".
~~~~~~~~
 Also  because birds are able to see beyond the forest,
they have more choices of what direction
to go. IMHO, that's free will.


 Also I found this  part of the lyrics interesting:
"From our window, ****we could see only possibilities
Down the road and back.."
~~~~~
 Windows, gates, bridges, pipes/tunnels, doors
caves, holes, even 'phones' ( as in the movie
the Matrix) are all portals and by
entering and/or exiting those portals we
*** see other possibilities
because only then can we see:' down the road and back',
much like Janus .

Interestingly the 20th of January
begins the zodiac sign of Aquarius
which is an air sign.

I don't think it's a coincidence that January 20/21
is inauguration day for POTUS. Granted it hasn't
always been that date.
However I can see why the Hidden Hand changed the
inauguration to 1/20.  Right on the cusp
of Capricorn the goat ( whom they honor)
 and Aquarius, the water bearer.

Everything is connected.
Thank you again for posting this. 

Speed the Collapse ( partial lyrics )

All the way from where we came
Built a mansion in a day
Distant lightning, thunder claps
Watched our neighbor's house collapse
Looked the other way
And then the storm was overhead
All the oceans boiled and rivers bled
We auctioned off our memories
In the absence of a breeze
Scatter what remains
Scatter what remains
Pushed away, I'm pulled toward
A comedown of revolving doors
Every warning we ignored
Drifting in from distant shores
The wind presents a change of course
A second reckoning of sorts
We were wasted waiting for
A comedown of revolving doors
Fate, don't fail me now
And when the days that followed passed
In another mansion built to last
From our window, we could see only possibilities
Down the road and back

Coincidence and magic

Several times on this blog I've noted the difficulty of deciding whether a given striking correspondence should be classified as synchro...
