I loved this song before I knew any of that backstory, but now I love it even more. Thank you for being so open about all those details. I feel like with music there's always the fun of trying to "solve the mystery" of a song's lyrics, slowly piecing together over time the different meanings to a song. But at the same time this proves that sometimes knowing a lot of details about a song's background can make it even more enjoyable. Thank you for posting this. It's a beautiful song.

That's a lot of depth within various realms, and a whole lot of beautiful-- in my opinion, all conjoining nicely. I've just recently read about the whirlpool/vortex symbolism in Gnostic creation myths, which is interesting.
