Desert Foxes Within the Prophecy

Neville's Inner Vision

To Ezekiel these foxes are not literal beasts but the inner voices of a people scattered in a barren field of awareness. In Neville's terms, the desert is your current state of consciousness—empty, anxious, hungry for signs that will soothe the ego. The 'prophets' are the inner faculties that interpret life: imagination, memory, judgment. When these voices take the form of foxes, they dart, disguise themselves, and bite at shadows, persuading you that you are ruled by circumstance rather than by your own consciousness. The passage warns that such prophets can speak from lack and fear, projecting doubt across your life. Yet the deeper message is a call to self-awareness: you are the one who calls forth these voices by the beliefs you hold. If you revise your stance and align your I AM with a wiser observer—one who remains serene amid the desert—you awaken from the chessboard of appearances. The true prophet is the I AM itself—steady, intimate, and able to discern between projection and reality. When you recognize these fox-like thoughts as products of your state, you invite a new class of inner teachers who guide without misleading.
