Message of the Ouroboros in 2006: Lesson in Greed

The Jeweled Ouroboros and the Wreck of Sagittarius Lair


Ouroboros connects
above and below

status quo
from the highest
point of the Heavens
to the depths of the sea.

Sagittarius, the Archer,
the constellation,
center of our
Milky Way galaxy,
the serpent of light
residing in the Heaven.

Embracing coils,

Ouroboros locks jaws
upon itself

spitting venom in
unending law,
striking with awe,
fear mingled with
reverence,
disjoined in
severance,

the clash of
opposites

injecting life into
death into life,

unfriendly competition,
which rises out of
greed, to see which
portion of Ouroboros
can dive deep enough
to reach the Jeweled
Ouroboros first
and take,

which sank like the
blue jewel on the
Titanic, the Jeweled
Ouroboros went
down in the wreck
of Sagittarius Lair,
the serpent of dark
residing in the
Ocean

in a battle of
good and evil,
light and dark,

Diving deep in
greed,
off itself it
will feed,

Ouroboros takes
from its ownself,
one in the same,
the Jeweled Ouroboros,

swallowing its own tail
in greed,

feeding back on itself.

Ouroboros.

Beginning and end,
a continuous unending.

Ouroboros.
