   In my most recent thread, entitled   
   "Only Human?/In the arms of this angel” , on alt.religion.druid ,   
   you might think that I am saying that I am the angel being   
   referred to in Sarah McLachlan’s song Angel, though it   
   is more clear that she is calling me an angel in her song   
   Sweet Surrender (maybe inspired by my outstretched   
   arms at the Sunflower Sunday concert, as well as our Touch).   
      
   Well, she has always said that Angel is about the heroin   
   overdose of Smashing Pumpkins touring keyboardist   
   Jonathan Melvoin. But she has always had multiple   
   meanings in some of her songs, so perhaps there   
   is a reference to me as the angel.   
      
   Anyway, recently when I heard a version of Angel I   
   did my blessing on the dead on Jonathan Melvoin   
   and facilitated (he had to agree) a soul alignment   
   between him and the song Angel (all versions).   
   I then divined that after my blessing on the dead   
   he had chosen to move into the beyond afterlife,   
   from which there can be no reincarnation, so the   
   soul alignment is permanent. So maybe by   
   this activity I have fulfilled her prophecy in the song Angel,   
   fulfilling one shamanic duty of conveying the soul of   
   the dead to a better place, though I didn’t do it while   
   in astral/out of body/shamanic journeying form.   
      
   Also perhaps her new song Only Human is not about   
   me, though since i am the Wolf in her song Monsters it   
   is clear that she has often sung about me.
