Translations:Serpent (fallen angel)/5/en

They were called Serpents because they were masters of the Kundalini, or life force. The Kundalini is serpentine in appearance as it is coiled at the base-of-the-spine chakra and raised at will by adepts to the third eye. When the Kundalini is awakened, it begins to ascend the spinal column. We see this represented in the caduceus, a symbol of the medical profession. The caduceus is illustrated as a staff with two entwined snakes rising to a pair of wings at the top. As the sacred fire rises on the spinal altar through the two snakes (i.e., the male and female energies), it heals mankind’s diseases.
