In the alchemical flask, the symbolic dragon appeared at the beginning and end of the work - shedding what is useless and impeding in the process of purification. Likewise, the Aeon represents evolution dictated by the changing times. Insights (note the keyhole of light in the flask) have cleared away the fog that caused us to think and act without clarity or understanding. We acknowledge our mistakes, embrace this larger perspective, and direct our lives in accordance with what we've learned. The Brehon Triad indicates ways that people can add to misfortune through chatter, laziness and insincerity. People who are in pain or experiencing adversity aren't helped by gossip, platitudes or pity. When we understand that we are interdependent, subject to the same hardships and joys of others, how can be we anything but kind?
