The Metro Med houses instruments used for channeling, translating, reflecting and assimilating ancestral knowledge for forwarding progression in the emerging age. The Metro Med achieves these goals as a standalone tool as well. However, it is the conjunction of The Metro Med and its contents that brings forth the real magic. 

By using the technique of crochet, one instantly gets a subconscious feeling of warmth and endearment, as crochet is most commonly associated with elder matriarchs who have left behind loving gifts, born from their hands, and given during sentimental times such as holidays or birthdays; channeling and reflecting the ancestor realm. 

Within The Metro Med we find its channeling and reflecting counterpart, a copper wired rotating double helix which channels energy in a torsion field and reflects that energy through its glass beads, symbolic of the ancestral genome. 

The combination of shimmering brass elements with delicate crochet stitches is the translation of ancestral skills (the old) and wisdom into an industrial-technological age, which bears a brightness of possibilities (the new). The Metro Med design leads one to question: How? How is it that something so delicate fits so synchronistically with metal? It is a moment of thoughtful contemplation. 

Within The Metro Med, the translation counterparts are three copper coils of different sizes and shapes. These coils translate the channeled and reflected energy of the double helix. Thoughtful contemplation ensues as the magician decides which coil to use, where to place the coil on the physical being or elsewhere, and by doing so marks the coil with a defined purpose. 

Giving The Metro Med a solid structure and consistent color scheme represents the assimilation of the ancestral knowledge into an orderly well-structured way of being that is comfortably carried as part of the magician’s daily walk. 

The Metro Med counterpart of the assimilation of the information garnered from interfacing with the ancestral realm is actually not found within The Metro Med. It is found within the heart, mind and soul of the magician. The Metro Med and the magician become one in characteristics. Similar to The Metro Med, as the magician is seen moving about, people will recognize the energetic uniqueness and beauty of this physical form. The true magic of the magician, like that of The Metro Med, is only understood once they are opened and their contents, and internal workings, are expounded upon; this is only for the ELECT, as the magician wills it! So be that!
