I took my daughter to this To Fly! at the air and space museum...........................and the narrator of the film????  None other than Tom Cruise.............


That dialogue is telling him to get a cloak that’s lined with a certain pattern, which is found to be in possession of royal monarchy. This reinforces the theory that there is a privileged elite and bloodline tied to these characters. We’ll come back to this Milich/daughter scenario again later as we explore her role in the Triple Goddess formula…
With costume in hand, Bill walks up to gates of Somerton; the mansion in which the infamous orgy scene takes place. We hear a crow cawing three times, which could be a metaphor for denying Christ as Peter did in the Bible. Surely the house he is about to walk in is a mockery of Christ with its reversed-mass and orgies. He also provides the password for entry with Fidelio, which was a Beethoven opera. The connection here is pointed out by Tim Kreider:

Asked about Alex’s fondness for Ludwig Van in A Clockwork Orange, Kubrick answered, “I think this suggests the failure of culture to have any morally refining effect on society. Many top Nazis were cultured and sophisticated men, but it didn’t do them, or anyone else, much good.”  This point is reprised overtly in Eyes Wide Shut when we hear the title of a Beethoven opera used as the password to an orgy
As he walks in we see female goddesses holding up lights; indicating Venus the light bearer or Lucifer, or the Illuminated ones:



It seems as if every scene up until this point features a Christmas tree,  usually upon entrance. Wikipedia says that Lee Siegel believes the purpose of the Christmas tree motif is:
because it symbolizes the way that “Compared with the everyday reality of sex and emotion, our fantasies of gratification are, yes, pompous and solemn in the extreme…. For desire is like Christmas: it always promises more than it delivers.”
