All this* lends more support to the notion of epileptic (& similar) fits being related to the C degree.**

The description at (5)*** is interestingly reminiscent of C in [0], whose eyes perceived everything, and made no judgements, and who, of course, did not speak.

The blissful happiness and harmony at (1)*** is characteristic of C~;**** the loss of memory and of analytic [sic] powers# is characteristic [of] the later stages of breakdown on the O[uter] C[ircle] G~ semicircle, I guess, although a period of recollection and reflection may follow C on the I[nner] C[ircle] C-r~-g~ sector. #*

(Perhaps ‘The Idiot’ represents Dostoyevsky’s method of doing, or sublimating, this? Characteristics of a degree can be delayed by the individual’s own efforts, and often are.)

And the feelings at (6)*** – sadness, wonder, anxiety, depression,#** and alienation from one’s environment – sound like the r~ degree (as I experienced it), bearing in mind both the near-unity of r~ and R~#*** (so near to C) and the fact that this is likely to be part of the Crisis Resolution period.

**(cf the ‘left’ side of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, culminating in the Libyan Sybil, & Jonah at the ‘top’ end)

#*(I need to think [how] this recollection happened at G~-R~-C on the O[uter] C[ircle]).

#**Manic Depression, of course, is supposed to be characteristic of [(/associated with?)] A~ <900826>

[& depression with M~!]

#***(R~ being characterised by a tendency to paranoid (and other) schizophrenia, which (6)** sounds rather like.)

[Surely (6) is R~ more than/instead of r~]
