June 18 (Water) Liber LXV, Cap. III, v. 18-20
-
**18. O Snake of Emerald, Thou hast no time Past, no time To Come. Verily Thou art not.
19. Thou art delicious beyond all taste and touch, Thou art not-to-be-beheld for glory, Thy voice is beyond the Speech and the Silence and the Speech therein, and Thy perfume is of pure ambergris, that is not weighed against the finest gold of the fine gold.
20. Also Thy coils are of infinite range; the Heart that Thou dost encircle is an Universal Heart.

I struggled with yesterday's and today's entries with the idea of trying to avoid the obvious. Which is silly because what is obvious to me isn't obvious to others and what is obvious to me is simply elementary to others. All a trap I say!
These past two days of verses correlated with Nuit and verse 5 of the Book of the Law. "Help me, o warrior lord of Thebes, in my unveiling before the Children of men!"
In the previous set of verses Ganesha was called upon the force that breaks things down. Nuit calls upon the "warrior lord of Thebes" to do...something...which assists in Her unveiling before the Children of men. By Children here I can posture that possibly our Ruach's or the lower levels of the Ruach are meant - but I'm not tied to that. The warrior lord may be clearing the path, getting things out of the way, in short, breaking things down so the Children can receive it.
I'm tied in to Nuit here because the descriptions in this verse - "Snake of Emerald", "Verily thou art not", "Thou coils are of infinite range" - all encircling the Universal Heart. All very beautiful and poetic in these verses. All senses are in rapture and everything pales in comparison.
