The Catalyst of the Body

[Plenum]

good analysis ricdaw.

I also think it is significant that the wheel does not turn. Instead, the figures appear to be crawling around and around the fixed wheel (the spiritual ledge on the top of the wheel would have no purchase of the wheel turned.) The wheel, with its seemingly fickle events and happenings, isn't a tricky apparatus designed to keep us from that platform, instead it is something the figures cling to and get entangled in.

this isn't me being picky, but isn't the whole function of a wheel to turn?

and JustLikeYou references the inner and the outer wheel - what do you make of those?

Lastly, there are two wheels, which suggest that there is both an inner and an outer meaning to the Catalyst of the Body. Again, I will emphasize the deep connection between mind, body and spirit: every catalyst of the body is a potential catalyst for both the mind and the spirit if you are willing to look at the deeper meanings.
