{Britain the [...]land [continued (3)]}[8th October 1989]

There is, of course, no limit to the number of circuits* (and variety of contexts[)] which (I imagine) may follow each other.

This is, of course, exactly the opposite of how I envisioned it when we travelled to and lived in Scotland in 1986/87,*** which all goes to show that the power and reality of symbols resides in the mind, not in their concrete expression. The reversibility of C and A~ (like that of G~ and M~) is built into the [O] structure: to the materialistically cluttered (at or from A~) the desert is the place for spiritual renewal (at C); but to the renewed (at or from C), the wilderness is a place of factories and neon-lit offices (at A~).

Nevertheless the reversal here is of a different order: only if we can transform our whole society will we see (again?) the Holy City in the South and the demons only in the wilderness of the North.
