Sarah Palmer was said to be attuned to certain frequencies, which is why she sees BOB, so she may have been a pragmatic choice. There’s also the possibility that Lynch simply wanted a reason to put her in the series one last time. As for Earle luring Briggs to the lodge, he certainly has a fixation ...

From David Lynch's "Ronny* Rocket" script: GIRL I got idea, man...you take me for a walk ( she moves closer to the guy) under the sycamore trees (closer) the dark trees that blow, baby. In the dark trees I'll see you and you'll see me...I'll see you in the branches that blow in the breeze...

I've always considered it to be "Fire, walk with me," and I presume that impression is largely due to the way it's spoken, but also because of the inherent poetry of that reading. It's as if the fire is a power, or a state, or a representation of evil, or even a sort of entity (like when M...

Also remember this is referenced between Cooper and our boy John Justice, when he said The Hindus's are "also known to walk accross hot coals", and Coop replies "It's self discipline"...........In thinking about the irony of that, Cooper LACKED Self discipline in the lodge when ...

Well, someone suggested not so long ago that the owl cave ring symbol sort of looks like a corn stalk with the corn in the middle and leaves opening to the sides. Lately we've talked more about the more robust Indian (as in India) religious connections, but I did recently delve into the art of maize...

So, to answer the original question posed, I believe that ALL of the lodge inhabitants consume Garmonbozia. I'm not counting the shadow self doppelgangers as true individuals, nor am I counting spirits merely passing through on their way to perfection. I'm talking about BOB, MIKE, and any above-the-...

I haven't watched FWWM yet and I'd like to hear more opinions from people who have seen it. I was actually considering watching the 3.5hr fanedit first, but that link made me reconsider. Do you all agree I should watch The Missing Pieces first, then FWWM? Definitely not. FWWM and then The Missing P...

I've also pondered this symbol. You can draw a [golden] circle around the center diamond and isolate something very much like the symbol on the ring. I've considered the three diamonds might represent three aspects of the lodge, from top-to-bottom: the White, the "waiting room", and the B...

I was searching around for pre-Columbian corn imagery from the Americas. I did’t find any Owl Cave Ring stuff, but I did find some neat things. Here's Quetzalcoatl delivering maize to mankind: http://www.mushroomstone.com/Picture2%20QUETZALCOATL%20AAS%20THE%20MAIZE%20GOD.png Zapotec God with Ear of ...

I stumbled upon something interesting, and while likely completely coincidental, it does have some neat resonances with FWWM and the Jumping Man. Here are some cherry-picked words and images: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garuda The Garuda is a large bird-like creature, or humanoid bird that appears...

"If Jupiter and Saturn meet, Oh what a crop of mummy wheat!" -W.B. Yeats Great quote. Can you shed any more light upon it? This image you posted looks pretty much exactly like an odal rune with serifs: http://www.dugpa.com/forum/download/file.php?id=2284 Interestingly, the earliest odal r...

Have you read Fernanda's (that's his name on this board) discourses on Lynch on his Subliminal-Synchro-Sphere blog?: http://subliminalsynchrosphere.blogspot.com/search?updated-min=2011-12-31T16:00:00-08:00&updated-max=2012-10-18T00:04:00%2B01:00&max-results=17&start=6&by-date=false ...

In Lynch's world, "as above, so below" An ancient and pervasive concept, certainly. From the Upanishads, the Emerald Tablet (which Jung believed appeared to him in a dream as an emerald table, ahem)... through the New Testament ("on earth as it is in heaven")... all the way, mos...

Ygdrasel (why only one g?), I agree with the vast majority of what you've written. I know the pain of the season two nosedive all too well. If that were the style of the show from the start I never would have watched it. It's a touchy subject. A few out there like it all, and I fully respect their r...

14:55 (the stick is very plank-like, and the action is absurdly long-lasting):
