Numbers are used to numb, and letters to cast spells. , making one numb and dumber. It is no coincidence that A-Z of letters ends with a Z that starts the numbers with Zero, the beginning and the end alpha and omega. Except there is no beginning or end it in itself is a construct. Everything in our perceived world is interconnected, interwoven into a 3-D veil of three directions of height, width, depth. We are deceived constantly by subliminals of color, sound , and shape forming constructs of symbology, reverse imagery, number system, reverse speech patterns, and laced with neuro-linguistic programming working on the subconscious mind. A new form is emerging in the form of an alternate reality game (ARG),it is an interactive narrative that uses the real world as a platform, often involving multiple media and game elements, to tell a story that may be affected by participants' ideas or action. ARGs are growing in popularity, with new games appearing regularly and an increasing amount of experimentation with new models and subgenres. They tend to be free to play, with costs absorbed either through supporting products (e.g. collectible puzzle cards fund Perplex City) or through promotional relationships with existing products (for example, I Love Bees was a promotion for Halo 2, and the Lost Experience and FIND815 promoted the television show Lost). However, pay-to-play models are not unheard of. Unique terminology Among the terms essential to understand discussions about ARGs are: * Puppetmaster - A puppetmaster or "PM" is an individual involved in designing and/or running an ARG. Puppetmasters are simultaneously allies and adversaries to the player base, creating obstacles and providing resources for overcoming them in the course of telling the game's story. Puppetmasters generally remain behind the curtain while a game is running. The real identity of puppet masters may or may not be known ahead of time. * The Curtain - The curtain is generally a metaphor for the separation between the puppetmasters and the players. This can take the traditional form of absolute secrecy regarding the puppetmasters' identities and involvement with the production, or refer merely to the convention that puppetmasters do not communicate directly with players through the game, interacting instead through the characters and the game's design. * Rabbithole - Also known as a Trailhead. A Rabbithole marks the first website, contact, or puzzle that starts off the ARG. * Trailhead - A deliberate clue which enables a player to discover a way into the game. Most ARGs employ a number of trailheads in several media, to maximize the probability of people discovering the game. Some trailheads may be covert, others may be thinly-disguised adverts. * This Is Not A Game (TINAG) - Setting the ARG form apart from other games is the This Is Not A Game aesthetic, which dictates that the game not behave like a game: phone numbers mentioned in the ARG, for example, should actually work, and the game should not provide an overtly-designated playspace or ruleset to the players. *Designing for a hive mind. While it might be possible to follow the game individually, the design was directed at a collective of players that shared information and solutions almost instantly, and incorporated individuals possessing almost every conceivable area of expertise. While the game might initially attract a small group of participants, as they came across new challenges, they would reach out and draw in others with the knowledge they needed to overcome the obstacles. To really understand go to a few of these sites to check it out, they are loaded with esoteric meaning as well as NLP. Also to see why it is particularly strange, their newest "game" http://www.somethinginthesea.com/ http://www.deceptech.com/ http://www.argn.com/now_playing/ Many games at the link above Well there is a new Arg in the mode of This Is Not A Game (TINAG).The Masters of Puppets want you to start at the Traihead, go down the rabbithole, and with Hive mind, to the curtain (call). ![]() It is brought to you by Hawaii Department of Health Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Pandemicflu.gov World Health Organization About Coral Cross The world's first Emergent Reality Game http://www.coralcrossthegame.org/ The site won't me download some of it so check it out. Can Information Outrun a Virus? With H1N1222 'swine flu' moving across the globe, pioneering 'emergent reality game' Coral Cross gives you a chance to help outpace the virus -- 'vaccinate' your community with real information, compete and collaborate to earn Vigilance points, and discuss who should receive vaccine first in a severe pandemic. The first challenge? Complete our 3-5 minute Pandemic Awareness Test... get started I think this one picture and the paragraph of how it started, says so much from the Game Master of Superstruct, Alternate Reality Game as a way of getting people into the mindset of what that could feel like, how this whole thing is a creation to get us to actively participate with feeling and with intention and that is how things become manifest, the Secret of the Secret, Set Intention, power it with emotion to get it moving into the 3-D realm, just imagine! ![]() A year later, by September 02008, they had won a federal grant to do a demonstrationpublic engagement project about preparing for a possible flu pandemic scenario. Wearing our Hawaii Research Center for Futures Studies hats, we pitched them on an Alternate Reality Game as a way of getting people into the mindset of what that could feel like. There had not been an actual pandemic in 40 years (Hong Kong flu, 01968) and enabling this type of engagement against a backdrop of indifference and invisibility would be our major challenge. The ARG idea came about because I was just gearing up to serve as Game Master on Superstruct at the time, so ARGs were in the air. Also, it seemed a way to scale up the narrative depth of the scenario, while building on the work of others in for example After Shock and World Without Oil, as well as on what we had learned from doing FoundFutures projects, futures artifacts etc. An alternate reality game (ARG), is an interactive narrative that uses the real world as a platform, often involving multiple media and game elements, to tell a story that may be affected by participants' ideas or actions. The form is defined by intense player involvement with a story that takes place in real-time and evolves according to participants' responses, and characters that are actively controlled by the game's designers, as opposed to being controlled by artificial intelligence as in a computer or console video game. Players interact directly with characters in the game, solve plot-based challenges and puzzles, and often work together with a community to analyze the story and coordinate real-life and online activities. ARGs generally use multimedia, such as telephones, email and mail but rely on the Internet as the central binding medium. ![]() They want to influence you. Let's take apart some of the symbology of the image. Notice how the flesh of 2011 is wiped out with 2009, Paint it black, creating 111 or (666) the EST (EAST) How can you Establish something when it is 2009 not 2011? It is out of place there for a sign and the fleshiness of the color does not fit, a departure from the usual red of medical. It is centered in Hawaii. It is the only state having its 50th jubilee (like Micheal Jackson) for 50 years since becoming a state, it was also the 50th state to join the Union. The Aloha state, which originally meant love/compassion, now stands for Hello/Goodbye. Aloha is used on the top right hand side on the link to Coral Cross.222 ![]() The Hibiscus with it's human from of 5 within, is also the state flower of Hawaii. The Hibiscus represents passion and is a sacred flower in many countries. In Mexico it is used a refreshing tea. In Indian the Hibiscus is used as an offering to the Goddess Kali and Lord Ganesha. ![]() Kali ![]() Lord Ganesh The Egyptians called Hibiscus , roselle, which would tie it in to the rose of the cross. It's dried flowers were used by for teas( T's) another form of a cross. The tea was drank both hot and cold all over the world. ![]() It was also used for medicinal purposes ranging from the heart, skin, wound healing, lowering cholesterol, etc. ![]() Polynesians used the fibrous parts of the plants to make their grass skirts. ![]() ![]() I kept thinking there has to be more to why the cross is coral. Co-ra-l, in cooperation with ra, and coral is skeleton. A coral skeleton cross, with flowers and leaves on the grave stone. Well, what does coral do? Itsecretes calcium carbonate to form a hard skeleton. A coralhead! ![]() The pineal gland is part of the endocrine system, that they would like to indoctrinate. The pineal gland secretes calcium carbonate in the form of calcite crystals. It has a Mohs hardness of 3, a specific gravity of 2.71,Calcite is transparent to opaque and may occasionally show phosphorescence or fluorescence. Calcite exhibits an unusual characteristic called retrograde solubility in which it becomes less soluble in water as the temperature increases. A transparent variety called Iceland spar is used for optical (Third eye) purposes. Acute scalenohedral crystals are sometimes referred to as "dogtooth spar" (godtruth)![]() ![]() Crystal structure of calcite, Looks like DNA Calcite has the properties of crystal twinning, Crystal twinning occurs when two separate crystals share some of the same crystal lattice points in a symmetrical manner. The result is an intergrowth of two separate crystals in a variety of specific configurations. A twin boundary or composition surface separates the two crystals. Crystallographers classify twinned crystals by a number of twin laws. These twin laws are specific to the crystal system. The type of twinning can be a diagnostic tool in mineral identification. When conditions are right for dissolution, the removal of calcite can dramatically increase the porosity and permeability of the rock, and if it continues for a long period of time may result in the formation of caverns, most notably the Snowy River Cave in Lincoln County, New MexicoBrain Coral ![]() So here we see the reason for the fleshy color ![]() ![]() The human brain Split a brain and you have a cross-section, also note the X or cross in it. ![]() Notice all the NLP wording in the links below, they want you to participate in creating this, by their influence over your brain.

I've learnt that all movie posters are very meaningful. Why not try to analyze this one? The bride in the pie's dress, the number of men in the poster...( I do not know, but maybe somebody else has some clues)

I'm going to put up a few movie posters that have 'come up' for me lately. They're not du jour, they're older ones. I wonder if it may not work here, because it's too personal, but it can maybe kick it off, burgundia!
I have too many actually, about 10, from the last 3 months. So, I'll post, uhm {deciding}... ![]() ![]() ![]() *** i may have to post separately about 'sentinel' thoughts, bruce willis, walt disney's jungle book (the colonel), and true elephant herd leadership/ guardianship ***

judykott - Thanks for the beautiful, interesting information about hibiscus. (I tend to 'un-do' local plants.) About the big virus website, again, I think users and gamers - who are actually free labor! - help think out solutions/results for TPTW.

this was the whole plan behind the idea, getting people involved in this insane game....so from the point of view of karma, the players themselves are to be blamed...

The hummingbird has powerful spiritual significance. In the Occult, the hummingbird is a symbol of resurrection. It seems to die on cold nights, but comes back to life again at sunrise.According to occult teachings,the humming bird brings fire to the world.The humming bird is also attracted to the Hibiscus.The blooms are open for a short period each day, symbolic of the soul's brief time here on earth.

I think tptw will be active doing rituals to further their plans, and the awake one's should be doing our own energetics to bring in positive energy and evolve as much as possible as well as send that energy to all on Earth.

Vertigo ![]() Again we have the International Orange, of the Golden Gate the 666 resonator, which is stated in it's description that it is related to Scarlet(Red 666). We have the V V V=22 22 22 in the Vista Vision Vertigo The main characters are dressed in Black and White of duality. ![]() THE GLYPH OF CANCER Swirling 69 of Cancer in it's obsessive state. This image is evocative of the claws of the crab. There is tenacity to Cancer in its pursuit of goals, it will hang on so tight and obsessively that it will lose a claw rather than let go. Once achieved this tenacity continues by hanging on and holding together what is possessed. ![]() The glyph is also like two spirals moving in opposite directions symbolic of the ascending and descending course of the Sun, or the two and fro movement of the crab from land to water, and back again, which could be likened to a movement from the external world of conscious life to the internal world of the subconscious, back and forth. Premiering in San Francisco on May 9, 1958=55, it is considered to be director Alfred Hitchcock's (Al as in alchemy Hitch as in wed (web) and ****(do I really need to explain that one )finest film. (and, according to Hitchcock, his most personal one), this adaptation of the French novel D'entre les morts (The Living and the Dead) weaves an intricate web of obsession and deceit. It was restored in 1996 More pi in our face ![]() San Francisco detective John(A John is someone associated with prostitutes )"Scottie"( cott as in caught on the T or cross) Ferguson(Urge u son) (James Stewart) develops acrophobia (an extreme fear of heights) after a fellow police officer (Fred Graham) falls to his death while trying to save him during a rooftop chase. His acrophobia causes vertigo. Also notice how close that word in to Virgo or Virgin a vixen who makes your head spin.![]() He is forced to retire from police work, and is unable even to stand on a step-stool in the apartment of his friend Marjorie "Midge" Wood( MM=22 22 or 8 the sacred feminine) (Barbara Bel Geddes) without being paralyzed by fear and dizziness. ![]() Scottie is then hired as a private detective by an old college acquaintance, Gavin Elster (Tom Helmore), who wants his wife Madeleine (Kim Novak) followed. Elster (El Star or Trickster ) is worried that she appears to have symptoms of a mental illness or "possession" by a spirit. Scottie tails Madeleine, who visits the grave and the painting of a woman named Carlotta ( Scarlet as in the Woman in Red )Valdes(V) who killed herself one hundred years(Jubilee) earlier. ![]() Madeleine( Magdalene as in Mary) wears her hair like Valdes and wanders the city in a trance-like, obsessive state.( the negative aspect of cancer or lunacy as Cancer is governed by the moon) In spite of the detective's former romantic involvement with Midge - they were even engaged for three weeks - Scottie is strongly attracted to Madeleine. ![]() The bridge and Madeleine are Scarlet women, temptresses of the material world, and possesiveness, like Vivien as Scarlet O'Hara (O as represent of the whole or hole and Hara as a Mati Hara another scarlet woman) in Gone with the Wind. This is the woman in red in the Matrix In another scene Scarlet who stands upon the barren lands after the war and grabs earth in her hands and shakes her fists at heaven and says "I will not go hungry anymore" . ![]() Then clenching the earth of material realm she says Tara, which is the name of the plantation it is echoed Tara(terra). She then goes in cuts down the green curtains from the parlor window, a veil of illusion, to make a dress to tempt Brett Butler who is held in Prison(cube or cell), the scarlet woman who will use her wiles to get things on the material plane of existence. There is a scene in Vertigo that echo's that same theme with Judy/Madeleine being bathed in green neon light. When she gives up her identity and is not true to herself. ![]() Scarlet as the scarlet woman, in Gone With the Wind Fort Point is about to become a character in the story but first we need some background on it. It is a real place in San Francisco on the harbor. All the locations in the movie are actual ones. ![]() The United States sign is Cancer, July 4, whose leaders are behaving in an obsessive, possessive, and lunacy state. CANCER RULES THE BREASTS, THE WOMB, AND THE STOMACH, All three containers of the body are used to provide some type of nourishment, while two are intended to biologically equip the female to harbor a safe haven for the growing fetus, and then provide nourishing milk for the growing infant, as well as warmth and comfort. A Harbor is a safe haven for boats to berth(birth), behind the straits and through the narrows. It is a watery womb, a safe harbor for berth. Golden Horn was given to the San Francisco Bay by it's first discovers after this harbor.The Golden Horn is a historic inlet of the Bosphorus dividing the city of Istanbul and forming the superb natural harbor that has sheltered Greek, Roman, Byzantine, Ottoman and other ships for thousands of years. It is a scimitar shaped estuary that joins the Bosphorus just at the point where that strait enters the Sea ofMarmara , thus forming a peninsula the tip of which is "Old Istanbul" (ancient Byzantion and Constantinople). ![]() This is where Madelaine jumps into the harbor, Fort Point being in the position of the fornix guarding the straits, or birth(berth) canal to the harbor (womb). ![]() Welcome to Fort Point National Historic Site! Fort Point National Historic Site Fort Mason, Building 201 San Francisco, Cali fornia 94123 ![]() From its vantage point overlooking the spectacular Golden Gate, Fort Point protected San Francisco harbor from Confederate & foreign attack during & after the U.S. Civil War. Its beautifully arched casemates display the art of the master brick mason from the Civil War period A bloody period in our country. You want to cervix your country.Definition of Fornix Fornix: In anatomy, a vaultlike or arched structure. For example: * The fornix in the brain -- a fibrous arching band connecting the two lobes of the cerebrum. * The fornix of the conjunctivae -- loose arching folds connecting the conjunctival membrane lining the inside of the eyelid with the conjunctival membrane covering the eyeball. * The fornix of the vagina -- the anterior (front) and posterior (back) recesses into which the upper vagina is divided. These vaultlike recesses are formed by protrusion of the cervix into the vagina. "Fornix" is the Latin word for "vault or arch." "Fornix" is closely related to "fornication." Kali fornication It seems that prostitutes in ancient Rome used to hang out under the arches of certain public buildings. The act of carrying on an illicit sexual relationship consequently came to be called "going under the arches" or fornication. lX =is also a medical term for investigation lX =Roman numeral 9, the months of gestation for humans before the birth through the straits or the canal, the release of the flood of waters of the amniotic fluid which is salt water. ![]() Thefornix (Latin, "vault" or "arch") is a C-shaped bundle of fibres (axons) in the brain, and carries signals from the hippocampus to the mammillary bodies and septal nuclei. ![]() I couldn't find any with a Brazilian wax ![]() The fornices of the vagina are the deepest portions of the vagina, extending into the recesses created by the extension of the cervix into the vaginal space. The word 'fornix' is Latin for 'arch' or 'brothel'. There are three named fornices: * The posterior fornix is the larger recess, behind the cervix. It is close to the rectouterine pouch. * There are two smaller recesses in front and at the sides: o the anterior fornix is close to the vesicouterine pouch. o the lateral fornix. ![]() I am not just whistling Dixie here!!! How many served under those Golden Arches of McDonald's ![]() I couldn't resist throwing that picture in, it is not from Vertigo. When you are under a spell, you have a life sentence. Seeing language and its constructs with its punctuation marks such as the comma, used as a mark of separation in a sentence or a pause. The life sentence of being trapped in the world of material thought and want, filling the quota the proportioned part that keeps us separate. The punctuation is the mark to divide the sentence and quotation marks to indicate a beginning and an end to a quote within a sentence to separate us, my words from your words as if we can own words. Period means to come to a full stop. To punctuate is an act of puncturing, a hole , a wound, or perforation. ![]() Look at a comma's and quotation marks, they are the YOD seed the 69 as used to keep us in the box of the 6 sided cube. A cross to bear really means you remain in a cube, a box. What other things are called boxes? ![]() ![]() cross cube of 6 pyramids, this would form a jack in the box that 777 talked about in one of his posts. To emerge and see, emergency. CRISIS, is Isis in the Scarlet mode , emergency.Code Red The hexation (6)of the word to sacrifice us on the cross of the sacral. To take ones own life is the most sacrilegious thing one can do. It's not crossing the bridge, it is jumping off of it, or burning our bridges, or I'll cross that bridge when I come to it. Look at comma, and then coma is a state of profound unconsciousness, a state of mental or physical sluggishness.To pause or separate oneself from others. Comatose. This is how you get put under a Spell, words as sword. Back to the movie Vertigo, now that we know what Fort Point means. He follows her to Fort Point at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge, where she jumps into San Francisco Bay in what appears to be a suicide attempt. ![]() Scottie saves her and brings her to his apartment. When she awakens, she joins him in the living room, but soon leaves. ![]() When Madeleine and Scottie take a trip to see giant sequoias at Muir Woods, she enters into an apparent reverie of what appears to be Carlotta's past. ![]() In a dark, moody, giant redwood forest, in the filtered, impressionistic light of the woods where they have wandered, she speaks about the ancient, towering trees and how they remind her of her own smallness and mortality. She gravely comments on how history continually repeats itself - (there are other repetitive images, colors, and actions throughout the film, i.e., the reincarnations - and linkages between Carlotta, Madeleine, and Judy) Madeleine: How old? Scottie: Oh, some 2,000 years or more. Madeleine: The oldest living things. Scottie: Yes. You've never been here before? Madeleine: No. Scottie: What are you thinking? Madeleine: Of all the people who've been born and have died while the trees went on living. Scottie: Their true name is Sequoia sempervirens, 'always green, ever-living.' Madeleine: I don't like it. Scottie: Why? Madeleine: Knowing I have to die. She tells Scottie she has dreamed of Mission San Juan Bautista, and he takes her there in an effort to conquer her disturbing dreams. At the mission, Madeleine suddenly runs into the bell tower. ![]() Scottie's acrophobia prevents him from following her up the steep staircase. Through a window, Scottie sees Madeleine plummet from the top of the tower to her death. ![]() Scottie suffers a nervous breakdown and flees the scene. At the inquest into Madeleine's death, Scottie is cleared of prosecution but severely criticized by the coroner for negligence, though Elster reassures him, telling him "we both know who really killed Madeleine" (i.e. she was possessed by Carlotta's spirit). Elster tells Scottie he intends to cope with his grief for Madeleine by leaving San Francisco to travel the world. ![]() Top of the Mark Scottie “No, Acrophobia isn’t a crippling thing. It just means I can’t climb steep stairs or go to high places, like the bar at the Top of the Mark.” To come up short of the Mark is an esoteric term. Scottie's depression worsens and he is placed in a mental hospital,(Lunacy) where he descends into catatonic passivity and suffers from terrifying nightmares. Midge tries to console him but realizes that he is still in love with Madeleine. Much later, Scottie, still brooding, begins to haunt the places where he had been with Madeleine. ![]() All of the spots are real places in San Francisco that are in the movie and they all have significance as you will see, here are some of the places he visited interspersed in the next few paragraphs. Lombard Street, as seen from Coit Tower runs through Cow Hollow, with switch backs designed in 1922 8 sharp turns and is this section is known as the windiest street in the world. Part of it is Hwy 101, at street reduces to 16 degree incline(sweet sixteen) Madeleine's apartment building is "The Brocklebank" at 1000 Mason Street, ![]() Coit Tower was built in Pioneer Park atop Telegraph Hill in 1933 at the bequest of Lillie Hitchcock Coit Lillie has sexual meaning for it's shape of it's blossom and I think you can figure out the rest of it by the phallic nature of the tower.) It does not appear as if she was a relative of Hitchcock. To beautify the City of San Francisco; Lillie bequeathed one-third of her estate to the City of San Francisco "to be expended in an appropriate manner for the purpose of adding to the beauty of the city which I have always loved" ![]() Phoenix and Fasci, no doubt about it being Masonic ![]() Nice Mirror work here On one visit, he encounters a woman, Judy Barton, who bears a striking resemblance to Madeleine, although she seems more "ordinary," even a bit vulgar, in comparison with Madeleine's refined beauty. Scottie follows Judy to her hotel room, where he hears her story. She is a simple girl from Salina, Kansas,( Most of Hitchcock's women are icy blonds from Kansas as did Dorothy in the Wizard ) making a life for herself in San Francisco after a series of bad relationships. ![]() Palace of Fine Arts Dome with water, female principle However, after Scottie leaves, the truth is revealed: Judy writes him a letter in which she reveals (in flashback) that she was in fact Madeleine: Elster hired her to act as a mentally unstable false "Madeleine". The woman who fell from the tower was Elster's real wife, hurled, already dead, from the tower by her husband. Elster had hired Scottie to follow the false Madeleine simply to have someone reputable to corroborate his claims of his wife's suicidal tendencies. With no witnesses and Scottie's testimony supporting Madeleine's "insanity",Lunacy Elster got away with murder by correctly calculating that Scottie's vertigo would prevent him from following 'Madeleine' up the tower to see the truth. ![]() The lone Cypress, a symbol of the city , as seen from 17 Mile Drive Having written the letter, Judy, who has fallen in love with Scottie and feels guilty for the pain she has caused him, destroys the letter almost as soon as she has written it. Scottie becomes obsessed with Judy, but any romantic possibility between them is thwarted by his memory of Madeleine. Scottie insists that Judy dress like Madeleine; despite her protests, she eventually gives in. When Judy is completely made over as Madeleine, she goes back to her apartment, where Scottie is waiting. She deliberately tries to retain some hint of her own personality by not wearing her hair in Madeleine's style, but finally he persuades her to change even this small detail. She goes into the bathroom and emerges, just as Madeleine emerged from his bedroom — the film echoes the earlier scene — and as Scottie embraces her the past swirls about them and their relationship seems finally to be consummated, his obsession cured. ![]() Argosy book store on East 59th Street Scottie becomes suspicious of Judy when he sees her wearing a red(Scarlet), jeweled pendant that he remembers Madeleine claiming to have inherited. He takes her to Mission San Juan Bautista and forces her to go up the tower once more, telling her that he wants to re-enact the scene in which he failed to save Madeleine. He forces her to confess the truth and they inch up to the top, where Scottie rages at her. ![]() Scottie suddenly realizes that his vertigo is not affecting him and he has made it to the top. For a moment, he forgets about the questioning and gloats to himself: "I made it. I made it." Climbing higher into the tower through the trap door to the actual "scene of the crime" in the belfry, he drags her up as her feet go limp and unresistant. With powerful intensity, he questions her about the betrayal and she cowers from him. ![]() Using two key words from earlier - freedom and power - he bitterly explains how he learned of the deception as the story of her collusion and sinister relationship with Elster is revealed (as a mistress and accomplice in another denial of her own identity). ![]() Experiencing intense feelings of both repulsion (hate) and attraction (love), he softens when she insists that she loves him and falls into his arms for a passionate embrace and kiss - they renew their twisted love. Then, suddenly the footsteps of a black-clad figure in the shadows startle Judy. (In Judy's mind, the words "bringing her back" are fulfilled.) Judy backs away from Scottie gasping: "Oh, no!" The dark, shadowy figure says: "I hear voices." Terrified, thinking and believing she is seeing the ghost of the murdered Madeleine (or the reincarnation of the ghostly doomed mother Carlotta Valdes), Judy recoils, steps and falls backward through an opening in the tower and plummets to her own death (off-screen) in an emotionally-shattering climax. The figure, actually a nun from the mission, crosses herself and murmurs the last words of the film: "God have mercy." ![]() The nun (a Mother Superior , virginal Sister of Mary, or perhaps expressing "habit" for what she is wearing) pulls the bell rope and rings the mission bell. As the bell tolls Scottie, cured of his vertigo, emerges from the arched window of the tower onto the belfry ledge. He stares down in horror at her body far below - stunned, open-mouthed, shocked and glassy-eyed with his arms slightly away from his body. He is cured of his vertigo, but totally destroyed by his other delusions and burgeoning sorrow. Tragically loving and losing the same woman twice, repeating the pattern he had intended to break, the scene fades to black. This is the story of missing the mark, of possession and obsession on the material realm, it is the story of the bridge who can be the Scarlet woman, or the Mary who brings forth life into this realm and of the balance of Yin Yang and awareness. ![]() ![]() ![]() They toiled and built a thousand years In love's all powerful might; And so the Milky Way was made A starry bridge of light.

Thank you Judy and 777 for excellent posts. I just wish I could see the whole picture the way you do, but for the time being I'll have to rely on you to connect all the dots...
PS. I am still saying that for a non-native speaker of English it is much harder and i bet that other non-native speakers would agree with me. |
