You seem like a smart guy, with a good head on his shoulders. So let me just short-hand the rest of this comment and save myself a lot of typing. :p I'll give you a few bullet points of where I'm at:
Rosetta Stoned
Probably my favorite song. Ever. Literally. 10,000 Days is a way underappreciated album.
Fear is the Mind-Killer. Fear is also a choice.
Not even just fear, but all emotions. Becoming your own master means, firstly, acknowledging and using your own control over yourself, at all times. I wish I were that perfect.
Not too many are ready to discover the "magick" we're aware of
This part is frustrating; but there are solutions. Personally, I've found one that works and it's great. Highly recommend you look in to answering this question, for yourself.
Forty Six & 2
More food for thought. I've run in to this one, before. This transition is allegorical, IMO. But I do believe that the next form of evolution will hold an intangible element (if not be entirely intangible), of which only other humans with the mental capacity to understand it would be able to even perceive it. Humans with all sorts of crazy mental powers like hearing glimpses of each other's thoughts, seeing quick snippets of the near-future, etc. The only reason we all don't make use of these abilities is because of our own lack of self-confidence, as hilarious as that sounds.
YOU ARE NOT YOUR BODY
You are instead divine.
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuude, half of all my knowledge is based on the presumption that my soul is super-glued to this dank body, for better-or-worse. As above, so below. :p This part I'll yell in to anyone's face that's willing to hear it. Not many are, though. Lol.

Now go listen to Parabola.
The Grudge is about abandoning your ego.
Saturn is the stone that drags you down, fear, your ego. The "gold" in you will emerge once you abandon Saturn and embrace your divinity.
How does this relate to Maynard? Well, one can easily examine the symbolism in use in his pizza truck and ice cream truck businesses. He understands magick. His band is one of the few, if not the only band, doing mass "rituals" out in the open. Again, Music = Magick. In this case, however, few are able to use it in the way TOOL uses it.
Pneuma reiterates what I tell you about Parabola
We are all on Breath, one Word
We are all on Spark, sun becoming
We are shards of Creator. As Parabola suggests:
We barely remember who or what came before this precious moment. We are choosing to be here, right now. Hold on. Stay inside this HOLY REALITY.
Now consider Rosetta Stoned again. How does this intertwine?
What I think is the neatest, to be frank, is how inoculating fear will bring about the flood of LA.
Maynard said recently, on stage in LA, "Still here for now, Los Angeles." Oh, the synchronicity. You should turn the news on over the next few weeks, by the way.
More to come, just ask.
