Chiron~tapping the bones

what is submerged/suppressed becomes visible when sought. Science/Doubt/Courage Penetrated by the Fool - below the Surface, beneath the liminal Sheath, Lurking darkness, seductive Redness - cool Water.
Asklepios (Greek hero who later become a plague god, then the god of medicine and healing); Aesculapius (Roman god of healing based on the Greek Asklepios); Garuda (great golden bird with an eagle's beak and wings and human body, the Indian symbol of medicine); 

Meditrina ("Healer," a Roman goddess of wine and health who was later syncretized into the cult of Aesculapius); Eeyeekalduk (Inuit god of healing); 
the Medicine Buddhas (most prominently, Bhaishajyaguru in Tibet and Yakushi-Nyorai in Japan, who symbolize the healing and transformative quality of buddhahood}.
