Under has always been a symbol for death. The Eleusinian Mysteries went underground. The Christian Mysteries go underwater. It’s a symbol of the unformed, of chaos, destruction, darkness, panic, fear. The advent of psychology put our irrational mental processes there, in the subconscious, the id, the archetypes. The “under” indicates places hidden, mysterious, secret, shadowy, dark.

I need to go there now, into dreamy chaos, and discharge some weird mental energy. After that, perhaps I’ll be able to finish this in the way I planned.

Tomorrow, then, we rise anew.
