Symbolism. An egg. A serpent coiled. An Angelic holding an egg. The images of the Orphic Egg hold meaning. The cosmic egg some call it. If its depictions in earlier times were meant to shed light on our reality, what point in time are we referencing and how would it be explained at each reference point in time? The year 43 BC, 109 AD, 1147 CE, 1576, 1709, 1901, 2018, what does it mean at each point in time?
What about pre-year zero understaning? What about its understanding in the year 6573? If Earth and its timeline can be considered in and of itself a container, or the place of reference, we can assign that container an identifying symbol, say the letter E. So, our understanding of time is expanded by including a designator to the time we are referencing, Earth time, or time(E). The same could be applied to Orphic Egg(E). Understating(E), is easily known as Earth Understating. A symbol of understanding created.
E – a symbol referencing and identifying anything contained within the Earth experience.
There. Now we are all on the same page. The Orphic Egg(E). What about the Orphic Egg(?). The definitions have been made. What about the Orphic Egg(C), with the symbol “C” meaning cosmic. It is called “the cosmic egg” in Earth understanding. But what of its Cosmic understanding? Yet, again, in considering cosmic understanding, what is Cosmic(E) and Cosmic(C)? It all pertains to the understanding from within a container itself. Earthly understanding, (E), comes from those within the container of Earth. A cosmic understanding, (C), would have to come from an understanding outside, or beyond the Earth container, or Earth(E), to be described. So, what about Earth(C)?
A Cosmic Egg held wrapped in a serpent’s coil. You describe it. Sages, mystics, gurus, intellectuals, and so on, all have their definitions, as so it has been documented across time. Yet, what of a new definition, or should I say, an old definition, both in the past(E,C) and in the future(E,C). Who is saying what about the Cosmic Egg? A symbol described in relation to our experience here on Earth. A symbol that holds both an internal and external meaning. The egg, what does it contain? What lies outside of the egg? Why is a snake coiled around it? What is holding the egg? A container held. Why? Who holds the container? Who do you believe?
From a multidimensional point of view, the explanation comes from a point in time that exists way beyond the Earth we know today. From a creational standpoint, that understanding, spans limitlessness, not just the Earth experience we are discussing presently. It is a combination of many multiple factors that bring together an understanding that can all be held within a single image. From a multidimensional vista, it is seen and it is known. Say for instance the following image:
The image above has it’s own symbolic meaning, whether it is from (E) or from (C). So, the Cosmic Egg is quite literally the symbol that depicts not only the understanding within the container of the egg, such as Earth reality, our internal consciousness, etc, but also the understanding of what is occurring on a cosmic level, and beyond, outside of the container itself. It’s symbolic meaning also includes the idea that containers exist, not only of reality, but of consciousness as a whole and in part. The snake itself representing the holder of that knowledge or understanding. The idea of an external consciousness being aware of not only the container, but of the contents of that container. Another example is this:
Anatomie de la tête / Jacques Fabien Gautier d’Agoty.- Paris, 1748. A mere drawing of a container observed. The external artist examining the internal. A physician or an anatomist could be said to be the holder of the understanding of the container that is the human body(E). Even though this understanding comes from within the container of Earth understanding(E), there yet exists the symbolic meaning of the Orphic Egg, in that there is an ever existence of a container, its contents, and the holder of that understanding. So, who is the holder of the understanding of the human body from a cosmic perspective, as in human body(C)? That is an interesting question. Who is the holder of the understanding of Earth(E), and all of its understanding as Earth(C)? Earthly understanding of anything as opposed to Earthly understanding from the view point of the container holder. Multidimensional vistas provide this understanding.
For example, minds on Earth today are expanding into this understanding. Here is a video of such expansion concerning the cosmic web of the universe:
Within the above video, you can see that where “we” might be in relation to this larger model is definitely a spec within a container:
Where are we and what else is out there? Our understanding(E) is quite minute in comparison to the total amount of understanding within a container that we as humanity on Earth are not aware of presently for the most part. Yet amidst this obvious possibility lying at our feet, there is a world within our very individual container:
Every glimpse we get as humans of the fabric of reality becomes a symbolic understanding of a container, the contained, and the one holding knowledge of that container. We look out, we look in…..out….in….outer….inner. No matter the complexities of what presents itself in the outer, or of the inner, symbolic images appear that give us understanding, or questions further to be answered. From one point in time to another:
A container itself, time it is. A representation of what was known in a time within a container we know today. An image, a symbol, of what we know of the past. Are we the container holders today? Fast forward to today:

A photograph of a man, on a plane, using a communication device, a hand held computer. An image, holding royalties, a water mark does symbolize the commerce of today in ways antiquity could not imagine. A container all its own, the container holders are watermark inserters. An egg all its own. Time, commerce, communication, humanity, and much more held in two separate images. What more containers lie beyond the time symbolized in this photo of this man on a plane? It is the container that lied beyond the painting. If a photograph on a plane is the future container for the farmer in the field, what is the future container for the man on the plane? Or is the question simply a matter of not just time, but the container in which all is occurring? What would the container holder say about that question?
Neurons hold a web of consciousness. Society holds a web of consciousness. A planet holds a web of consciousness. A Cosmos holds a web of consciousness? Cosmic consciousness? Nah, it cannot be! Sounds like the words of a farmer looking at wooden ships in the sea. But, alas, we sit and present such ideas. An exponential culmination of experience and elaboration of containers is being communicated on this planet. Why would there not be explanations of containers outside of this planet? If knowing of the container we reside in is apparent, that being this planet Earth, how could anyone possibly concede that the truth of the obvious cannot be? How can anyone say that anything is not a possibility? They could, but it would be their container to feed. Which is good as well.
The year was 19 when the above image was painted. If the idea of angels existed so long ago, does its meaning fade away over time to a non-existence today? A little over a hundred years ago, Dante showed us this image:
Who holds the knowledge of the container? Who and what is the container custodians? And of those custodians, who holds the knowledge and responsibility for their own container? How many levels of different containers are there? If there were many, wouldn’t that mean that there would be a multilevel system of containers, the contained, and the custodians of the containers?
Welcome to the basics of mulltidimensional understanding. Or, quite simply, welcome to the Orphic Egg.
