In this Canto death skirts through the heavens of the vital and mental worlds where the gods are strong. It means that the journey is taking place through the skies of the mind where light breaks through bringing hope and light. Here we see fragments of thoughts and deeds and feelings driven by an inspiring ideal. These are heavens created by human thought in its stretch and search for an ideal life.
A colossal black serpent guards the treasures of the vital world. It only yields to those who master humanity’s sexual impulse.
