The Procession of the Sibyls | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The
wild chase was accompanied by a large number of wise sibyls. Clad in
snow-white, preciously embellished garments White clouds of fog drifted permanently from the bright mouths of the
glistening animals and spread everywhere under the light of the full
moon. These merged with the milk-streaming rivers, which the stags roused with their golden hoofs from the earth, forming a huge milky ocean that was interspersed with golden-yellow streams. In the chasms of the world the alfs and giants woke up from the quiet delicate music that emanated from this shimmering milk-ocean. “The holy sibyls too, who accompany Walpurga on their white stags,”
explained Sol, ”curb their riding-animals through their mastery
over the unity of natureis forces in the cosmic breath of life. “He who knows how to harness the pure and golden life-force, permeated
with divine powers, creates the stream of wisdom in the world. “By means of its sweet truths, wisdom awakens in all limited beings
and in all things the prime forces that reach towards fulfilment. |
