i had not noticed that on the album cover until today !!

Jer, thank you!! the Ophite cosmologies, along with expressing all they express, really seem to have a lot of surprising connections to what it feels like whenever we are combining and transmuting natural human emotions too: Like combining distinct spectral feelings into new emotional shapes which then could jump to different areas of emotional synergy and thus self comprehension and transformation. i will try to write more soon in the actual thread!!

As well as.. that the guy who lifts up Punxsutawney Phil , a few minutes ago i had these memory flashes of all the times i saw it happen when i was a kid, and.. it was feeling like there were some kinds of.. DMT connections?? and i was like, but, why and how ?? and so i checked and now i am both confused and very happy. : ) : )

The event is based upon a communal light-hearted suspension of disbelief which extends to the assertion that the same groundhog has been making predictions since the 19th century.

The event is organized by the "Inner Circle" – recognizable by their top hats and tuxedos – who ostensibly communicate with Phil to receive his prediction. The vice president of the Inner Circle prepares two scrolls in advance of the actual ceremony, one proclaiming six more weeks of winter and one proclaiming an early spring.

At daybreak on February 2, Punxsutawney Phil awakens from his burrow on Gobbler's Knob, is helped to the top of the stump by his handlers, and purportedly explains to the president of the Inner Circle, in a language known as "Groundhogese", whether he has seen his shadow.

The president of the Inner Circle, the only person able to understand Groundhogese through his possession of an ancient acacia wood cane, then interprets Phil's message, and directs the vice president to read the proper scroll to the crowd gathered on Gobbler's Knob and the masses of "phaithphil phollowers" tuned in to live broadcasts around the world.
