the confusion of the staff of asklepios and the caduceus of hermes. asklepios who reigns over medicine and healing. hermes who reigns over trickery and commerce. asklepios who resurrected the dead. hermes who guides the dead to the underworld

#these comparisons. so many of them could be used as allegories for the modern state of medicine #medicine as something fundamental and as something commerical #profit for the one and for the many #ohh and beyond humanity the divine nature of healing of restoration #the nature of all beings to want to live #to fend off death #soup thoughts
