i must be stupid, but i can't find what this means... ' _
'

"is it this way above, so it is this way too below"?
"it is/seems so above that it is below"?

there is also a variant of this saying in a song by The The,
"so below as it is above"...

"on earth as it is in heaven" is part of the lords
prayer
.

 

could be an allusion to that. or, i could be way off the
mark.

you're not stupid. It just doesn't mean anything. Unless
epohs is on the right lines. "is it this way in heaven so it
is this way too on earth"?

yeah, i think there is a certain thematic fixation with the
idea that the heaven and the earth reflect each other in
some way... you guys should read the short story called the
Theologians by Jorge Luis Borges... very interesting...

maybe it's an allusion to the idea that one can tell a
persons true haircolour by the colour of their pubic hair.

Hermes Trismegistus...he was also the one who said "from one
source all things depend" like the boc geogaddi bonus track.
My brother knows a lot about this stuff because he reads
many books on Jungian psychology and "inner alchemy". The
final product of the alchemical process is the philosopher's
stone, which is the indication of a fully individuated human
being.
