Thoughts pt2, Peacock Tails 13/3/24
(Pt1 here, divided into two and queued because it was long ramblings)
I'm going to be referring to the Bodies as that from now on: the Bodies. There's a use discussing atomic particles and atom-esque ideas of the tiniest amount of something which retains its coding, but the Sky is best discussed in terms of the Bodies - atoms are Bodies, Bodies are not atoms.
The individual Bodies can act as gateways into various parts of existence. Understanding the Map, that is how to navigate reality beyond spacetime through Correspondence of all connecting to all and other Laws like Polarity's snapping to points, allows the sky spirit to navigate through individual Bodies into various points on planes, through time, etc. Really, anything can be accessed through them, but anything can be accessed through anything if one has the means to; the Bodies are particularly good for sky spirits.
Traversal through spacetime is one thing we use it for. Through the eyes of Indra's Web, the rest of reality is reflected and thus exists within. Through the Bodies, all is reflected and thus all exists within. The Sky is an ever-moving yet perfectly still thing, and it holds coding in each of its Bodies of when, where, etc., which is a set of correspondences that lends itself well to teleportation.
For example: The droplet of rain is not just an orb that reflects everything to varying degrees of definition, it is also a part of a process. Like a road isn't a destination and a teenager isn't an individual species from its adult self, the rain is one manifestation of a process of the water cycle. It feels, energetically, the nest of the cloud and the floor and the siphon between the two. It knows what path it will take before it takes it, it's more akin to the body of a snake in-between its head and tail. It's a train on a track - a train without a track is not a train - that can be taken to get from one point to another.
Here's the catch: It isn't just a method of teleportation from cloud to ground. It's complex, first: because the rain also both gathers things from elsewhere and evaporates as it falls, it's destination is not contained in the path the droplet form takes. Second: What we're navigating when we attach ourselves to it is not going to be the siphon from cloud to rain as tied to spacetime. If we have the energy and time to do that, we may as well just go to the ground ourselves instead of taking a rain droplet there. Instead, the process of travelling via rain…
I'm sure there's many processes, but the one I'm remembering now (and it's my blog I get to talk about what I want) is a psychedelic trip through spacetime. The rain speaks of many, many things. Humans brush past this when they talk about “we drink the same water dinosaurs drank”, except it's not so physical. Every thing in existence has a story written into it of everything it has ever been in contact with: animals grow, cliffs erode, even rocks in a vacuum will tell of their time in it like the gaps between rings do in trees, though hopefully that example shows, given that one wouldn't be able to physically see the time untouched in a rock in a vacuum, that I'm not saying it speaks in a way we physically have the ability to read at least in this day and age.
Everything speaks of everything and does so through lines of alterations in its coding, which can be traced back. Polarity - and thus the Trinity Kings and those orbiting them - know how to navigate the polarisation of self, other, and importantly both or “us” if you will. All three are states that can be changed in things. The lines of alterations are generally in the state of “us” as both which can be navigated to follow “us” back to other which can then be switched to self, or more so there's a siphon engaged in “us” when one connects with the other side to turn it to self.
Anyway. The main usage of rain as a gateway is to traverse the local states quickly. It's a lightning art used by those who wield the lightning bolt. The self is pulled like hot candy down the siphon of the process of rain (and all other weather processes) and frays out like a centipede or peacock's tail feather, submerging oneself in the local (local space and local time) history and workings… History is a word with specific connotations I don't want, refer to what I said earlier about what seeing through the eyes in the Sky Web allows such as the magnetic flows of weather patterns, but also things like the flows and tension of time in an area, the energies that have been expelled recently by the life around the area, and other information stored in the brain of the area itself.
The reason I say this is my blog and I can do what I want is because this isn't technically gateways like I set this up to be. It's a snake extending its tongue if anything, it's an intense force of realignment with the life in and workings of a given area. The comparison to the lightning arts is twofold: first of all, yes it is a lightning art. Second: Indra-Zeus wields his lightning as a staff of rulership and this is a ruling thing. The local sky spirit has no reason to do this unless it is so in tune with the area is is effectively merging itself into it, aligning it's consciousness with both the area and the life there. This lightning form, the spiral and centipedal extrusion into the workings and information of an area is both an extension of the god's power and iconic symbol of his ruling, it is his ruling in manifested form.
This is done in person when big change needs to occur, I'm pretty sure. But the resident sky god would more likely have himself set up so that he extends into the area in a less personal way, his peacock tail - the extruding of self in the processes of the weather and sky which causes fraying like a centipede or peacock's tail - dipped throughout the area so that this can happen with something that isn't his conscious mind or main body. Ah, yes, right, I think I remember going through the process with my conscious mind because I was curious what the experience would be like when done not with the energetic extensions of self, but the main self. It stretches the mind, that's the psychedelic trip: being extruded into thin line and frayed while retaining all nerves and understanding of self that your normal body carries. Well, your understanding of self shifts from the experience alone, I suppose.

Enid, looking at a picture of a red hot knife cutting bread: Imagine stabbing someone with this knife.
Emmett: It would immediately cauterize the wound so it wouldn’t bleed. Not very useful.
Vivian: If you want information it is.
Aaron: And here we see, in order, a Gryffindor, a Ravenclaw, and a Slytherin.
Elle: Why would you stab someone when you could make toast?
Aaron: There’s the Hufflepuff.

Robin: I'm proud to identify as moronsexual. I'm attracted to dumbasses and dumbasses exclusively. Alice asked me what the Spanish word for tortilla is and now I dream of kissing her under the moonlight.
Alice: What kind of animal is the pink panther?
Robin, already taking her clothes off: God Alice you're so fuckin stupid.

(Context: Alice got a piece of paper in Wonderland that shows the reader what she wants them to see)
Alice: I think you'll find I'm universally recognised as a mature and responsible adult.
Hope:... It's just a load of wavy lines.
Alice: Okay, it shorted out. Finally, a lie too big.

Martha: Hey sorry to bother you but I just was wondering, it's fine if you can't, but maybe you and me could go out some time. It's totally fine if you don't want to, just maybe we could see a movie? If you can't it's fine though.
Heather Mac: Sure I'd love to go out with you!
Martha: Well that failed but you can't blame a girl for trying, bye!
Heather: ...
Heather: I just said I'd love to go out with you.
Martha: ... You said what?
