Perhaps it is Blue, but the truth of the matter is that Carlos survived a number of attacks almost by luck. He was not saved by his seeing, his personal power,
his double, nor by La Gorda. "Da Nagual"... the implanted nagual-energy... saved him.
Soledad wasn't a Catalina. She literally wanted to kill Carlos and take the nagual-energy from him.
Doña Soledad was a solid Nagual, so this "test" was not a late teaching of Don Juan but an insurance to keep "the nagual" within a viable
nagual leader. She failed, but she came very close to kill him... for real. He had to die, I dare to speculate, because he would not give up the
power-of-the-nagual that he got from Don Juan.
Carlos had enough impeccability to survive. Thank God for that! Still... I thinked less of Don Juan after learning of this fact. Showed me how a number of
circumstances can lead a wise, old nagual to take such a drastic decision.
Respect for life has little place in the nagual path. They take the predatory universe philosophy to far. They learn, mostly, how to become predators instead
of preys. Soledad wanted that energy to be able to eventually pass the eagle. Imagine that... killing for spiritual freedom. It isn't that easy.
This kind of not-doings just put you up in the food chain, but doesn't free you from it.
