Mycroft
The Mystery Box contained the song Lily of the Valley by Queen from 1974 and written by Freddie Mercury. Here are the lyrics;
I choose this because it is the song that most makes me think of Tarot and Lenormand decks with it's mixture of symbolism derived from a wide variety of literary sources. I also felt that this would be a good candidate for synchronicity, so if there are any 'Syncs' that arise for you with regard to this song, Freddie Mercury or Queen, please do post and let us know. As a side note, Freddie was born Farrokh Bulsara in Zanzibar on 5 September 1946, and was a Zoroastrian.
Happy 'Return of The Sun' to everyone - try not to get as drunk as I intend to, and thanks for all your contributions!
I am forever searching high and low
But why does everybody tell me no
Neptune of the seas an answer for me please
The lily of the valley doesn't know
I lie and wait with open eyes
I carry on through stormy skies
I follow every course my kingdom for a horse
But each time I grow old
Serpent of the Nile relieve me for a while
And cast me from your spell and let me go
Messenger from seven seas has flown
To tell the king of Rhye he's lost his throne
Wars will never cease
Is there time enough for peace?
The lily of the valley doesn't know
But why does everybody tell me no
Neptune of the seas an answer for me please
The lily of the valley doesn't know
I lie and wait with open eyes
I carry on through stormy skies
I follow every course my kingdom for a horse
But each time I grow old
Serpent of the Nile relieve me for a while
And cast me from your spell and let me go
Messenger from seven seas has flown
To tell the king of Rhye he's lost his throne
Wars will never cease
Is there time enough for peace?
