Balancing the Genders.

Priestess - priest.
Wife - husband.
Princess - prince.
Queen - consort.

The gender order was made in homage to Mists of Avalon, the quality of which I still muse on sometimes. And the question is: what does one append to ‘Blinder with light and blinder with darkness -’ in a way that allows balance? And is balance necessary anyway?

Just a thought I had when I was trying to grasp the true meaning of ‘anadi anant.’

There was a madman in Sainsbury’s today. Maybe he can be the subject of the next post.
