Morphine, Head with Wings

A Head With Wings Lyrics

I got a head with wings (x3)
And I can see so far away I can see so clear
You would not believe the view up hear
I got a head with wings
A head with wings
Now I'm floating around up here way above the clouds
So high about the ground
And the only thing that holds my head to the ground
Is this one little skinny string
I got a head with wings
A head with wings
I got a head with yea oh
A head with wings
I got a head with wings (x3)
And I can see so far away yea so far away
I can see the shadows fall across your face
I got a head with wings
A head with wings
I got a head with yea yea
A head with wings (x2)
Yea (x2)

Early this week, I discovered the alleged occult significance of the third ventricle of the brain plus the two lateral ventricles. This brain structure looks like a head (the third) with two wings (the laterals) coming out of it. I googled "head with wings" and got this song by Morphine -- I think they saw what I saw. I think the mythical figure of Pegasus also symbolizes the third ventricle plus the two lateral ventricles -- especially because Pegasus is depicted as being ridden by Poseidon, who is the watery power of mind (Jove/Jupiter) -- this is important because the ventricles are filled with "liquid mind", i.e., the cerebro-spinal fluid. Davinci, and others, have apparently claimed that the third ventricle especially is the place of the "community of the senses", i.e., where all sensory information comes together and is integrated to form "experience". Manly P. Hall claims that the thin membrane between the lateral and third ventricles, the tela choroidae, may be a type of "ear drum" of the brain via which experience on the objective or physical realm is communicated to the mind body of man, existing outside of his body (if you believe in such things -- c.f. Manly P. Hall's "Man, Symbol of the Mysteries"). Note the song lyric, "And the only thing that holds my head to the ground is this one little skinny string." The skinny string may be the spinal cord itself which is the extension of mind/brain into body, and the only thing that keeps us rooted to "the ground" -- i.e., the material plane of experience.
