I love every bit of this. My comment is not meant to clarify your view of cosmic dualism, I only offer my own interpretation.

The Christian Father-god is with and in the CIA. It is the judgmental, punishing entity, always watching, listening, and seeing. When I felt an identical pretense, watching and judging me, I precisely located it by drawing it out of the woodwork. When I stirred the stew, the CIA floated to the surface. That is the spirit that was possessing and following me all my life. Perhaps it is true that it corresponds to all religious fundamentalism, but it also corresponds to social Marxism and progressivism in the universities.

The opposite god, Lucifer, is the god of reason. It is the entity that makes only the most profitable, practical, rational decisions. His children are the Machiavellians, narcissists, sociopaths. He is associated with “new” science, with the corporate and industrial world, with global finance and banking, postmodern medicine, war. He possesses those who desire society, respect, power.

Anything I am missing?

Enlightening as always. What are your thoughts on water's peculiar property of expanding when frozen? You seem to hint at the contemplation of this phenomenon with the water molecule diagram and Saturn's hexagon. Perhaps I am dwelling to much on peculiarities of the allegory, or more depth is yet to be uncovered.

Here's a possible meaning in the realm of psychology. Air contracts when faced with cold, it is wet and hot, and so becomes more like a fluid the more it is cold until it condenses enough to be completely liquid. Air, the intellect, shrinks when faced with the Saturnian "Cold Principle", whatever that may represent psychologically. Water, ever a symbol for the unconscious and (intuitive function by my evaluation) expands in this cold. The influence of the unconscious instincts, and the irrational function, is inversely expanded to compensate for the shrinking conscious rationality. Not only does water expand but it SOLIDIFIES, in freezing. The unconscious then finds its place in material reality, acting directly with the world, one with its own nature, able to bypass consciousness altogether.

Another observation that may be interesting is the connection between cold, time, and matter. Not only are things preserved in the cold over time, but at minimum temperature, zero degrees Kelvin, it is hypothesized time "stops". Not only does this happen but matter itself would deteriorate as there would be no motion at all. There can be no motion without matter nor matter without motion. This poses an interesting symbolic problem as Saturn and Yaldabaoth are material gods. Their freezing effect in its finality seems to be the total undoing of matter! That the fact that heat implies motion and motion implies matter was known to the ancients can be seen in the Sun-Creator God Myth. Heat is always the creative force, Fire the creative element, which is totally opposed to Saturn's melancholic nature. I've already written too much. I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter.
