  • Old St. John, a dedication to Roberts place of birth and early years of his life. Robert Ayles is a resident of Toronto for the better part of his life. He makes regular visits to the city of his youth. This song is a story of one such visit while crossing the miramichi river Robert wrote down some words to express his feelings.

    As I cross the miramichi
    old time memories come back to me.
    Lovers I had and lovers I lost
    I played the games despite the cost.
    I have no regrets of things of the past
    for you see that I am home at last.
    wanderlust, and thoughts of fame
    that's all over now I'm back again.
    Following my roots, that cannot be denied
    so many years I sat and wondered why.
    That's all over now I know where I belong
    back on the streets of "old St. John".
    So as I cross that Miramichi
    every memory comes back to me.
    I have no regrets of things of the past
    for you see that I am home at last.

    What do you see on this image?
    A zodiac symbol of Aries. What else?
    I see head of a Lion, from front side.
    It makes me question why Egyptians left so much statues of animals like Lion, then some kind of antelope with horns that resembling to goats horns (Capricorn), then scarabey which shape resemble to Cancer zodiac sign..
    This guy Cullen Smith whom belongs this image figured out something www.patreon.com/posts/aries-most-high-6964804
    It is said that there is 12 alchemical stages represent by 12 Zodiac signs to Opus Magnum and when you finish them you become the 13th sign, Serpent holder/Ouroboros/Ophiuchus.
    What ih the 12 stages represents the 12 parts of brain that you need to awaken completely. But the real phases of alchemical work are only 7, which are talking more about you mental transformations who are result of awakening completely one by one part of you brain.
    Look:
    josministries.prophpbb.com/topic15557.html
    ( if this is truth, apparently l advanced enough to be guided further :p )
    It makes no sence trying to finish Opus Magnum by star gazing, trying to drawn energies of constellations to finish 12 Zodiac signs stages.
    But if you to that apply: As Above, So Below. It opens a new door to understanding.
    And bit by bit the alchemical manuscripts becoming understandable.
    Everything is within us.
