For a description of multiple piercings of my hands and feet
see my Salmon on the Thorns web page.
I relate the incident to Quetzalcoatl’s self-sacrifice on thorns,
to the mention of piercing of hands and feet in the Old
Testament, to the thorn bush of Moses, and to the crown
of thorns of Jesus, as Easter approaches.
