The Fish
Quote--->Early Christians, who were in fact mystics, used the symbol of the fish symbol to secretly communicate their belief with one another. Going back further in ancient mythology God was represented by a fish. The fish was also a symbol of wisdom and divine understanding.
When one entered into meditation they were said to be inside the fish (God). When the bible speaks of Jonah being swallowed by a fish it is saying that Jonah was in deep meditation.
Cast your nets to the right (to catch fish).
Cast your nets to the right is the biblical symbolism for focusing your energies to the right side of the brain where the creative (God) side of our psyche resides. The left side is the analytical or carnal mind. In the bible all good things come from the right or east and all negative things come from the left or the west (the carnal side). There is not a single instance of something good coming from the west, the carnal mind.
The fish symbolism is also associated with the power to dive deep into the realm of emotions and the subconscious and be in connection with the divine feminine, fertility, sexuality, and the healing of relationships.
It has been argued that entering into meditation will invite demons. One being of right mind does not enter into meditation to find demons they enter into meditation to commune with the father just as Jesus did. If you are asking for a fish (aka God) the father will not send you a snake. It seems everyone has faith until it really matters. If you are truly seeking the father he will protect you from your own fears.
“He selects his disciples from the fishermen.” He selected from the men who meditated.
“He turned their waters into blood, causing their fish to die.”
In biblical symbology water is synonymous with truth. In this passage it states “their waters” meaning their perceived truths. He showed them their perceived truths were false causing their fish, their concept of what God was, to die.
A final thought. The hat of the pope is actually a fish head. What better trophy could there be than to wear the carcass of your slain enemy. Think on that for a moment.
