The Goddess of Love Holds the Full Moon in Her Arms

In the old Scottish ballad Sir Patrick Spens[9], a sailor cautions:

"I saw the new moon late yestreen
With the old moon in her arm;
And if we go to sea, master,
I fear we'll come to harm."

The effect known as "the old Moon in the new Moon's arms" can often be seen when 
the Moon is a narrow crescent. Within the intensely bright crescent, a dim and 
mysterious view of the entire circular moon is seen. The effect is also known as 
earthshine because it is light from the Sun reflected off the Earth to the Moon 
and back that lights up the darker portion of the Moon.

	(So obviously, effect correlates with storms)

	A BIG correlation to my old dream vs. BLUE CRANE TRUCK post yesterday:

One night in China, the venerable sage Chang San Fang had a vivid dream of a 
contest between two creatures, a snake and a crane. The former came up from the 
earth, and the latter flew down from a tree, and then began a struggle over a 
morsel of food. The dream recurred, night after night, and yet neither creature 
was ever wholly victorious. The contest was very evenly matched - an example of 
opposites in dynamic harmony.

But this really kicked me into Revelation Synthesis overload:

...eight defined 3.5 day phases in her monthly cycle of 28 days.

Rev's two witnesses lie dead 3.5 days.

The new moon is absent 8-th evident in the many series of sevens.

My progress back and forth 3, and a 4th woman, are like through
the seven lighted phases. Natch, the 4th is the loony full moon.

The projector on the wall is probably a sun, and had the first
woman in the room. Natch, I'd finally hook up with a black lady,
whose buttocks is a new (dark) moon, also somewhat senior (crone).


The Full Moon is used to allegorize great concepts, such as Beauty, Magnetism, 
Magic, Wholeness, Centrality, Balance, Awakening, Opening, Madness, Intensity, 
and Love.

New moon energy brings calmness and is likened to the end of exhalation when the 
force of apana is greatest. Full moon energy brings energy and heightened 
emotions, and is likened to the end of inhalation when the force of prana is 
greatest.

Diwali occurs on the new moon - a no-moon day - in fact the darkest day of the 
year which begins the lunar month, Karttika - usually Oct or Nov. The 
illuminations, fireworks and festivities are to signify the victory of divine 
forces over the dark powers. The legend is that on Diwali or Deepavali day 
triumphant Ram is said to have returned with Sita to Ayodhya, after 14 years of 
exile, having defeating Ravana - the king of Lanka.

	But these colors conflict with my spread of them in Rev:

Color: Primary Moon deity colors are white, red, or black, depending on Moon 
phase. The Hindu Goddess Kali and many European Triple Goddesses specifically 
used these colors to designate their various aspects: white - maiden; red - 
mother; black - crone.

Since I figure 1 horse & seal per whore: W, R, B, Green;
I'd have to more than double-time around eight moon phases.
Or else, the order of the horses must be scrambled (by some rule).
