Background
A description of the experience
Poimandres – Hermes Trismegistus
He gave birth to another mind, a skilled craftsman Lord of Fire and Spirit,
He created seven Lords, the planets who ruled the sensual worlds Their government was called Destiny - from the Elements whose gravity plunges downwards.
The Word soared to create the skill of Nature, linking this craft with the craftsman.
This mind with the Word, drew whirling circles,
turning from an endless beginning to a beginningless end
The circles created living creatures, animals and beasts
From the wind flew winged birds of glorious plumage
and insects with rainbow wings
Water brought scaly fish and monsters of the deep
