A'isha, I also love your post -- the idea that the dance is about human things. "Humans are sublime creatures ..." We are, aren't we?
We are the total of our experiences, and that is what we dance about.
Maybe it's my Quaker upbringing, though, but to me the human is also imbued with something divine, whatever you call it. You don't (in my mind) have to see it as an entity (let alone a gendered entity) or anything separate from ourselves -- It could just be the sum of our common humanity. And the enchantment we've been talking about on another thread is shared through this common humanity, even if there is also a lot that could potentially drive us apart. If you're inclined (as I am) to see the divine in all aspects of the world, then humanity and divinity are two aspects of the same thing: mirror images, or the shell and the core, or the interwoven threads of the whole cloth.
