ravenest
Aeon418 said:Back to the verse in question. There is no blood in Nuit's incense. Why? Blood suggests mortal, living things. But the absence of blood might point to the infinite, continuous nature of Nuit. On top of that the shedding of blood was the central mystery of the Osirian formula, and therefore does not relate to Isis.
Yes it does suggest mortality and more specifically (as AC says) blood is incorporated to represent animal life. Here we are talking about a vegatative formula, specifically trees. How do trees (of eternity) link to Nuit's hair? I dont know but I'm reminded of this;
" And some believe antennas are their leaves
That spans beyond our galaxy ..."
