As Above, So Below is an old term. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hermeticism#As_above.2C_so_below. It means that the cosmos has sort of macro/micros relationship on scale. It's the idea behind derivation & divining, as well as totem and the idea that one can influence the macro by manipulating the micro. Think Voodoo dolls. Whipoorwills only fly at night and Westphalia is referenced in some occult materials, though I'm pretty sure it's actually just a region in Germany. At least today. I like this song. My username is UtSupraInfra, which means "As above, below." I think of it in the sense that as things are in the divine, I should also do them in the mundane.
