The water with a witch's oils, Burnt green, and blue and white. Separated by his act of Un-kindness from all living spirits that he has considered like himself, the Mariner is left alone with the slimy watersnakes, swimming at night in the slimy sea. He has seen them as ugly, totally without relationship to himself, of a different nature from himself. And I blessed them unaware. He prayeth well, who loveth well Both man and bird and beast.
Prayer exists as an act of love.
As we act with compassion and love toward other living spirits, we manifest and make actual the World of Spirit, and, thus, give thanks for our own oneness with Spirit.
