Fig. 22:

LEMONDE Le Monde

(you already mentionned the anagram) :

Le Monde : Le Démon (The Demon)

Le Monde

L’     onde : L’onde : The wave

Le  Mon    : Le Mont : Mount

Le       de : Le Dé : The Dice

Le       de : L’è’+de : Laide : Ugly

Mo de : (La) Mode = Fashion

‘Le Monde’

Le Mo nde = Le Mot ‘NDE’ … = The Word ‘NDE’ (a well-known acronym : Near Death Experience)

‘NDE’ said in French gives phonetically “Haine Des ‘E’ ” – “The Hatred of (the letters) ‘E’ ” .

I wanted to know what happend when an eclipse occurs; what’s happening when the ‘typographic incarnations’ of the sun and the moon meet each other?

Let’s see!

le soleil

la lune     ………….. If ‘la lune’ hides ‘le soleil’, we have to hide the letters they have in common: (as a soustraction)

(-) ____________

(=)  e a s o i l u n  are the letters left.

Let’s shake!

e u n o i a + s l

Do you see what is left after a solar eclipse………………….” eunoia” !!!

You know the moon can’t hide the sun totally. Here, ‘s and l’ remain.

‘s’+'l’ = sel = salt

There’s always ‘un grain de sel’ (a pinch of salt.)

An eclipse gives a salted ‘eunoia’.

s

eunoia

l
