I haven't spent enough time on astrology to either confirm nor deny. But it is uncanny in its consistent generalized reading of specific influential energies at bay. I think that there are many bullshit sources of astrological knowledge, and a few authentic ones, but I'm not in a position to claim which sources are trustworthy, which are biased, and which are just plain incorrect. I've spent very little time on the subject.

Now, with regard to the setlist, the band clearly didn't spell anything, but they definitrly seemed to be saying something.

Story of the Ghost sets is up, almost as a title for the narrative to come.

No Men in No Man's Land... yes, humanity is at a crossroads, and appears to be a threat to its own survival on this planet. The potential is great that this Earth could become a Ghost town of epic proportions.

Breadth and Burning. Another end of times song. If all goes to not, "we're gonna rage with Page... right to the end. Life is to be enjoyed.

Undermind continues the theme. Big business and twisted religious philosophy are not interested in common sense, or even ideas that make sense. They care about the bottom line, placing their interests above the common interests of the greater humanity, and fall i to the trappings of greed, anger and ignorance, thereby Undermining humanity's opportunity to live. The future is fearful, is it not? In the meantime, fracking lands us a 5.6 magnatude quake in Oaklahoma, felt in 7 states. For most of the companies at the cause of this, it will be business as usual.

Heavy Things. The power of women. A great metaphor for the seduction of desires that rule our lives. Also, we're dealing with Heavy Things in the USA, and don't you deny it.

Ass Handed. Humor helps us deal with facing the reality. Human beings are doing it to themselves. Human beings are allowing some evil motherfuckers to excel at it as well. As a species, we're possibly not wiping our own asses efficiently enough.

Stash. Admittedly, none of us are all-knowing. "Maybe so, maybe not" is the main point. There is much to fear here, and we may even be wrong. But the facts before us....

The Wedge. The voice of Big Business in the world of desire. Flowing with the times, bobbing on the surface, only able to see as far as the next wave. Short sighted, while declaring the American Dream once again.

Alaska... once more, a message about the world of desire. They did poke fun at Sarah Palin in one performance past, so I will connect this song with her. Her rhetoric, and all who are like her.

46 Days. If this isn't blatantly obvious, then you're asleep at the wheel, my friend.

Second set.

Antelope. A song with no words. Fishman owns Trey in this version, Trey playing beautifully, but following the dictates of the drum as to when to step up the tensions. Here, Trey calls on us to "Set the gear shift to the high gear of your soul." It will take a heroic effort to change the times.

Mercury. In retrograde. A sign of the obstacles we face. Try to do things right, and they still sometimes come out wrong. Ever have one of those days when you just feel lime nature is against you? On days like that, take it slow and be twice as careful. And still they sing: "the net's unbreakable, don't worry about falling." Risk is good. Stepping out of the comfort zone is good.

Seven Below. Spiritual winter. The good teachings of the past are overtaken by evil forces. The good teachings of the present are rare and hard to encounter, and are slandered excessively by the evil teachings. With regard to our own thiughts, people in crises can't tell what is the thought of their rambling minds, what is that true ambition of their indestructible true authentic self? These times are confusing in the extreme. People and so iety can be so cold. And yet the freeze, from the outside, is often beautiful in appearance, is it not? Maybe this song is a call to chill, a call to enjoy. A call to cut out overthink and take yourself a deep breath. A huge sigh of releif.

Birds of a Feather. Once again, there are many disturbing influences gathering inside and outside this nation. Many things to fear.

Wombat. In my opinion, this is the first fully-realized rock solid performance of the song. Like a marble sculpture of a Wombat. The world of desire and distraction.

Tweezer. It's gonna be cold, but... desires are fulfilled with this one. Thank you, Phish.

Runaway Jim. Running from this message is not going to make it better.

Suzy Greenberg: humankind, please get your brain checked! How much more insanity before humankind moves collectively in a positive, sustainable direction? Is the great push towards some kind of Armageddon really a great endeavor? Those who make it happen will be punished harshly by the eternal principle of "Cause and Effect" that governs all things. That's my strong opinion.

encore:

Bug. If humanity ceases to exist, then who will be able to be thankful for having life. It won't even matter.

Tweezer Reprise: one final call to wake up. Yeah, the reality is cold, but we're faced with it. And it's not going away.

The message interpreted.
