Inner Kingship and the Cleansing Fire

Neville's Inner Vision

Within the psyche, the ruler of Babylon is the call to inner change; the 'sons of Zedekiah' and the 'nobles' are not persons but states of consciousness—pride, attachment, identity, the need for power. The scene, 'before his eyes,' is the moment you become aware of your own inner verdict: the old structures must fall so the authentic I AM can emerge. This is not punishment from without, but the natural consequence of waking to your real nature, the awareness that governs the dream you are imagining. The execution announces a purging of the outward forms that gave you security, so that you may rediscover sovereignty from within. If you resist this thinning, you exile yourself from your true kingdom; when you accept it, you return to a deeper justice—alignment of every desire with the I AM you are. Thus the death of the old royal line becomes a birth of a higher order within, where imagination becomes king and the heart witnesses its own authority.
