From goose to goose...

It is, that of Barcelona, one of the most unique and, at the same time, enigmatic cathedrals of all those metaphorical beacons of Culture and hermetic Knowledge, which, from well into the 12th century, began to shine, underpinning the vital spirit of a Europe was beginning to leave behind the darkness that followed the fall of the Western Roman Empire and the subsequent period of confusion and chaos that derived from such an event and is known as the Early Middle Ages.
In addition to also being one of the few cathedrals not consecrated to the figure of the Virgin Mary, it has, however, the added question, not exempt from buried esotericism, of having, in the facilities of its genuine cloister, a true Garden of the Goose, formed by an unalterable colony of these emblematic animals, which, always in number thirteen, would represent the wounds inflicted in the martyrdom of the female character to whom the cathedral is truly dedicated: Saint Eulalia.
