This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

thinking about the symbolic relationship between the Claw and the  
White Fountain, I looked through some of my mother in-law's crystal  
books for reference.

In "Healing with Gemstones and Crystals" by Diane Stein, which is  
apparently heavily influenced by this Plieadians new age alien- 
channelling cultish scene, I found the following entry on Star  
Sapphire as oddly appropriate to Severian & tBotNS.

Sapphire-Star (natural only)
color: blue and silver
Chakra: Causal Body
*Promotes connection with other-dimensional and other-planetary  
information for healing oneself and others
*Aids teachers of healing and healers in becoming clear channels for  
healing, facilitates connection and working with angelic Be-ings in  
healing
*Supports those in service to others and the planet; aids becoming an  
old soul, becoming a bodhisattva
*Eases healer's burnout, aids healers' own healing needs



anyway, I thought it was a funny bit of gold found in some shit.
the way the writer dropped the alien theories as fact was quite  
entertaining.
