I use a love filter and a dose of common sense, and draw on
what we have learned in the last few thousand years.
Or I sigh "for goodness sakes".
Isaac Asimov's Guide to the Bible Volumes 1 and 2 are also
useful. In Volume 1 he says that the seraphim are the
personification of the lightning and the cherubim are the
personification of the storm (high winds), which jives with
my experience of clear sky lightning at or just before onsets
of three of my waning crescent highs and highly variable
weather associated with one of them.
The seraphim are also associated by Asimov with a brass serpent.
Thus I interpret the Naga Water Serpent associated with
the Buddha as blue clear sky lightning and/or clear
sky lightning over water (the Buddha taking shelter
from the rain I take to mean clear sky), both of
which were true for the onset of my fifth waning
crescent high in late August, 1994.
