Snake medicine people are very rare.
Their initiation involves experiencing and living through multiple snake bites,
Which allows them to transmute all poisons,
Be they mental,
Physical,
Spiritual,
Or emotional.
The power of snake medicine is the power of creation,
For it embodies sexuality,
Psychic energy,
Alchemy,
Reproduction,
And ascension,
Or immortality.
The transmutation of the life-death-rebirth cycle is exemplified by the shedding of snake's skin.
It is the energy of wholeness,
Cosmic consciousness,
And the ability to experience anything willingly and without resistance.
It is the knowledge that all things are equal in creation,
And that those things which might be experienced as poison can be eaten,
Ingested,
Integrated,
And transmuted if one has the proper state of mind.
Thoth,
The Atlantean,
Who later returned as Hermes and was the father of alchemy,
Used the symbology of two snakes intertwining around a sword to represent healing.
Complete understanding and acceptance of the male and female within each organism creates a melding of the two into one,
Thereby producing divine energy.
This medicine teaches you on a personal level that you are a universal being.
Through accepting all aspects of your life,
You can bring about the transmutation of the fire medicine.
This fire energy,
When functioning on the material plane,
Creates passion,
Energy,
Desire,
Procreation,
And physical vitality.
On the emotional plane,
It becomes ambition,
Creation,
Resolution,
And dreams.
On the mental plane,
It becomes intellect,
Power,
Charisma,
And leadership.
When this snake energy reaches the spiritual plane,
It becomes wisdom,
Understanding,
Wholeness,
And connection to the Great Spirit.
If you have chosen this symbol,
There is a need within you to transmute some thought,
Action,
Or desire so that wholeness may be achieved.
This is heavy magic,
But remember,
Magic is no more than a change in consciousness.
Become the magician or enchantress,
Transmute the energy,
And accept the power of the fire.
