Album Cover

The Cover of this album is the Taoist Hexagram. It is the trigram symbol of water over the trigram symbol of fire.

Hexagram 63 of the I Ching is the symbol of Arashikage ninja clan, whose members include Snake-Eyes and Storm Shadow. The album's title is presumably a reference to the G.I. Joe cartoon's PSA slogan, "Knowing is half the battle".
