Evie has a powerful connection to a masked man V, who is fighting against the government. Her parents were freedom fighters and murdered by the police, so she understands his plight but cannot let go of her respect for authority and the desire to be &#8216;normal&#8217;. In essence the only thing she has left is her survival. She escapes V, but he recaptures her in disguise and takes her down to the dungeons where he interrogates her as a government official, cuts her hair and leaves her in a cold cell with only rats for company. he repeatedly tells her that she can have her freedom if she tells them where V is. She does not submit, and says she would rather die than tell them. And thats when the hooded figure says, you have lost all your fear, you&#8217;re completely free. And she walks out of the cell, past what she thought were armed gunmen but were actually dummies, back into V&#8217;s sitting room.<\/p>\n<p>By stripping her of everything, she faces her own death and realises there is nothing to fear any more.<\/p>\n<p>Heracles could represent that controlling bluebeard part of the male psyche, violent and controlling, un-nurturing. We castigate nessus as the baddie, but he is trying to show deianara a deeper level, ferrying her across the overflowing river. Nessus&#8217; dying act is to help destroy the bluebeard element, so that the female can continue with her journey.\u0412\u00a0 With her initiation into the underworld incomplete, she is operating with a naive psyche, and prone to jealousy, fear and manipulation. The poisoning of heracles is secretive and cunning, a very spidery end. Some versions of the myth say that the cloak of nessus was suffused with sperm and blood.<\/p>\n<p>I think the centaurs get a very raw deal in all of this.<\/p>\n<p>Did you hear about the fires in the aragorn region of spain?\u0412\u00a0 The conscious pan is rising.<\/p>\n<p>Love,<br \/>\n<em><strong>Sari<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Eric, Was walking in the very wet mountains yesterday and realised that rape in the old myths is usually about submission to a higher power.
