The question "is it well with your soul?" is a question of general interest to parents above, it seems, and to the Big Energy propensities somehow in control of mythic imaging and associated with the Almighty. This is a mythic projection associated with the Aquarian sort of mythic episode. Aquarius is now prominent in the evenings, with Pegasus looking into his hip pocket a bit like an inverted horse or Thanksgiving Turkey as we approach the zero hour of sidereal time, when the White Knight is running backwards and the Red Queen's on her head. Subsequently we find the pregnancy of Cassiopeia and the mythology of the Birth of Christ ("Aristarchus" on the moon & Orion amid the stars?) as Orion Rises again. The Aquarius figure reminds of the Moon God or Moon dog, (alias "Mohammed"? alias "Jesus"?) who starts each cycle of lunar phases with the Sun on his buns and a book on his back.
