The symbols of the Ladder, the Caduceus, and the Cross show us the means of climbing out of total identification with the physical body into the more refined realms from which we came, from denseness into light. Our exile of consciousness, of psyche, of soul need not be. Instruction is available for our return, for our awaking from our sleep, retrieving the Pearl of Great Price and returning home.
Experiencing ourselves as Ladder reveals that continuous communication, communion with our Source, is available. Angels or messengers of information and understanding move up and down within our essence. Our practice is to open to that continuous flow, to go out of our self-chatter, out of our fear, out of our desire to fit in the social matrix, and to listen and to see.
Experiencing ourselves as Caduceus, we follow the healing transformation upward by attending to and opening the energy centers we are, especially the heart and the crown, though all energy wheels require opening for us to be a fully functioning Caduceus, a wand of healing and restoration.
The Cross gives us a different understanding of who we are. We are a wounded but open heart living in two realms: the horizontal of the social matrix and the vertical of grounded existence, the earth being that is open to the vastness of the heavenly.
We are a Ladder, a Caduceus, a Cross. The ladder points to our meditational or prayer practice, the caduceus to our healing, and the cross to our mode of being in the world. We practice becoming the ladder, becoming the caduceus, becoming the cross. These are our vehicles of transportation for moving from exile to return.
