both the physical world and the metaphysical world were at work to protect her

“wouldn’t have survived that fall” during her performance at the Brit awards if
she had not been in good shape, she has said. In an interview with the New York Times, the singer attributed her remaining relatively unscathed to her knowing
how to fall as a result of riding horses, and to something a little less
earthly.
“I have
core strength, and I know that saved me,” she said. “That and my guardian
angels. I believe that there’s the physical world and the metaphysical world
and I do believe that they are intertwined – as above, so below. So I think
both were at work in the protection of me.”
Madonna did
not clarify whether, when talking of being saved and of having “survived”, she
believed her fall down three steps at the Brits, when she was pulled backwards
by a dancer when her cape failed to open, was life-threatening.
She said
the fall itself was painless at the time. “I didn’t feel anything when it
happened,” she said. “I just remember falling backward, and I hit the back of
my head. But I had so much adrenaline pumping, and I was so taken by surprise
that I just was, OK, I have to keep going. So I just got back onstage and I
just kept going.”
