wheels, {cut right trunk} touches angel’s {lifted garment}

Eadwine pointing out (affirming) the arbitrariness of handedness: This image is left-positive; left = non-branching. upper right tree: hand w/ scroll touches left-branch cap, both left-middle trees have prominent {left cut trunk}, though middle-right tree also has {right cut branch} touching angel’s {lifted garment}.

tree 1 (left): visually {cut left branch} (panaeolus cap). touches God’s circle.

Lower right: angel threatens psychonauts, one who tries to look away (in fear; furrowed brow) from open scroll while falsely affirming branching (displays fingers, no thumb sticking out).

In contrast, two guys display YI hand and look at angel instead of looking away averting eyes.

The angel is taking the first guy’s spear and hitting him w/ its butt.

hammer: YI contrast.

Features

I’m off to a great, ideal start; a sign that I should go ahead and add this to the church article, Recognizing Mushroom Imagery in Medieval Art.

I’m massively more equipped to interpret this artist and the medieval art genre of {mushroom-trees}.

As soon as I looked at the picture, now, I saw multiple significant confirmatory motifs/patterns.

  • [4:10 Feb. 24, 2026] YI hammer – gallery details page already had that point; this is NOT a new decoding; I thought it was. Keep this note, as an example of false/ re-discovery.
  • fire = loose cognition = psilocybin.
  • mushroom cluster tangle, upper right.
  • mushroom-tree with {cut left branch}, upper left
  • [4:13 Feb. 24, 2026] that mushroom-tree has a singular cap for the non-branching branch (the {cut left branch}), and a grid cap = multiple = Y = branching, for the non-cut branch.

Motivation for this Page

I added f109 or f107 recently to my list of detailed analysis pages for Great Canterbury Psalter folio images, and I want to add that picture to my church article, but that will leave a blank half page, need pick another picture – which?

Answer:

  • I’ve been showing this image in my gallery, f49 (probably from John Lash’s 2007/2008 upload), since 2006, gallery webpage at Egodeath.com cited by Brown. http://egodeath.com/christianmushroomtrees.htm#_Toc134497563
  • People have seen the mushroom imagery in this folio image.
  • This image has mushroom-trees, unlike some other Great Canterbury Psalter images.

I am not committed to giving any specific interpretation details about this image in my short church article or in my longer, Journal of Psychedelic Studies​ article.

I cannot display the image in an article, unless I am able to explain it in detail.

Based on two significant findings a minute ago, immediately [re-]spotted [again] because of my increased interp’n power lately, it’s a “go”, to use this image.
