Translations:Franz Liszt/7/en
The poet Saphir wrote of him: “Liszt knows no rule, no form, no style. He creates his own. With him the bizarre becomes genial, the strange comes to seem necessary.”[1] Scorpio is a powerful creative sign. It is a magnetic field wherein the forces of generation are operative. Liszt did have rules, form and style, but he was capturing this form on a higher level of the cosmos than had ever been captured before. Therefore, to man’s consciousness it appeared that he was breaking rules. Actually he was spiraling to a higher level of different rules, different forms, different laws.
