Day 24) Foncebadon – Ponferrada 26.8 km

Was snowing all night. It is so beautiful outside, but The Cruz de Fierro, or Iron Cross is a steady climb, walking is difficult, cold and windy as well. 
 
I had a very interesting dream last night about a black bird feeding white and I think they symbolize two halves of a single awareness.
 
As if black and silver snakes, black and white birds stand for unconscious-sensation vs. self-awareness
and until they harmonize and merge I AM unable to harness my own dynamic energy.
 
One is left, another is right hand of the same field and for a black bird to feed white must be about sensational transmutation into self identification to annihilate them under a single will.
 
The silver snake initiates I AM, the single sensational soil and consciousness of the self, but until strong to sustain, falls in a form of a black snake and unconsciously reflect. The self desires weakness of his own body, but stronger her awareness to nourish dynamic force, transmutes desire into love of enlightenment.
 
Love is about sensing your own emotion, desire reflects weakness of a sensational-awareness, until evolution of a silver snake reintegrates with a black snake and harnesses the self.

Mercurial energy of a silver snake initiates and straightens original awareness and I leave a white marble stone at his feet for gratitude and appreciation.
