SIGNS & PORTENTS: 'State of Emergency’ Powers Secured for an Additional 12-Months, as Storm Poisons Water Supply
PANDEMIC WRITINGS, Melbourne, Australia (2020-2022): piece originally published September 1, 2020
In the realm of metaphoric reflection, if one observes the visible signs and portents as framed by the esoteric adages, ‘As above, so below,’ and, ‘As within, so without,’ last week’s catastrophic winds, power outages, and the “accidental” contamination of the drinking water for one-hundred-and-one Victorian suburbs, is both ominous and revealing. A gale-force wind is typically between 34-47 knots (63-87 km/h) and Victoria experienced 124-kilometres winds! Might the weather have been an outward expression of our collective internal torment? Perhaps it was a dramatic release of our constricted energy on a macro-scale — given that energy is never truly destroyed, but simply transferred and changed in expression?
Three days earlier, Andrews announced an autocratic desire for prolonging his psychological terrorisation for an additional 12-months. The overreach of this bumbling tyrant has already ushered in an unnecessary upheaval of normal life with the despair of a “new normal.” Our anxious awareness of his intent to continue this egregious ‘State of Emergency,’ is a realisation, whether intellectually or intuitively, that a sound can be heard, a tolling, and it is a virtual Death Knell for all desiring liberty.
Without question, the collective creative energy potential of all Victorians, whether it be the vital interactions between friends and families; the flow, exchange and circulation within all human endeavours, both grand and trivial, has been cruelly and utterly suppressed. Our individual energy circuits have been shorted, stifled and squandered, as we all endure a ‘shock-and-awe’ campaign of cultural, social, and economic Entropy: a reduction of the random creative energy in a system ever closer to zero.
In warfare, an ancient tactic during the prolonged siege of a people is the ‘poisoning of the wells.’
I am not suggesting that the Yarra Valley Water and South East Water pipes were deliberately sabotaged, or purposely poisoned by untreated water flowing into the system; but nothing is truly accidental, and the symbolism is undeniable.
Water is an essential element to all life, it comprises and sustains us, and to have it ‘poisoned’ may represent the very poisoning of the essential life of all Victorians by Pathocracy: the rule of a Psychopath.
Indeed, ‘the road to Hell is paved with good intentions’, but it is clear that Hell has its own Demons who are eagerly placing pavers to meet us in the middle.
