Seed of Inner Triumph

Neville's Inner Vision

In the inner world, the woman represents your higher state, the seed of awareness; the serpent is the stubborn habit of separation. Enmity between them is not punishment but friction through which consciousness awakens. When you accept that your thoughts can choose a new center, you begin to bruise the head of the old serpent by means of a single, unwavering assumption: I AM. The seed of the woman grows by imagining itself as the ruler of your inner kingdom, not the servant of fear. The line, It shall bruise thy head, becomes the experience of failure to seize power in the old way—the ego’s stubborn resistance—yet the new idea, felt as real and present, crushes that resistance. The sorrow and birth-pangs are the inner process by which new ideas are conceived in the mind; desire turning toward the husband becomes the inward consent that the I AM stands sovereign in your life. Thus the prophecy unfolds as an inner revelation: your awareness creates, your trials refine, and redemption is the alignment of thought with God.
