The Shape That Cannot Be Forgotten

The petals don’t radiate outward from a centre the way a child draws a flower. They spiral. Each one turns from the one before it at a precise angle — 137.5 degrees, if you measure. The result is that no two petals ever perfectly overlap, and the space between them follows a ratio that mathematicians call phi: 1 to 1.618. The golden ratio. This is not the rose being beautiful. This is the rose being...

Why the Fires Burn on June 24

Every saint in the Christian calendar is commemorated on the day they died. Not one date earlier, not one date later. The logic is consistent and deliberate: the death is the moment of completion, the entry into eternity, the point from which the life can be read as a whole. Stephen: December 26. Paul: June 29. Peter: June 29. Augustine: August 28. The pattern holds without exception across fifteen centuries of the sanctoral calendar. Except...

The Demiurge of the Platonic dialogues

Plato, as the speaker Timaeus, refers to the Demiurge frequently in the Socratic dialogue Timaeus, circa 360 BC. The Demiurge as the entity who “fashioned and shaped” the material world. The Demiurge is the craftsman. The term demiourgos or craftsman is itself surprising – one might expect such a character to be rather grandly titled Nous or Logos. At Athens, the craftsman was either a slave or if free, one who acquired a certain stigma as a result of his […]...
Skull cup

Skull Cups

In Sanskrit, skull cups are known as kapala, and they are generally formed from the oval section of the upper cranium. They served as libation vessels for large numbers of deities, which were mostly wrathful. However, they are also seen with gods such as Padmasambhava (India), who holds the skull cup, which is described as holding an ocean of nectar that floats in the longevity vase. This Elixir was at the heart of many secret...

Tyr – Odin & the Wolf

A note from Bernd:The first conversation with Johannes generated more mail than anything we’ve published on this site. Most of it was questions. Some of it was people telling us they went back and reread Episode 8 and couldn’t quite read it the same way again. I want to be careful about how I introduce this second conversation, because I think the first one gave some readers the wrong impression — that Johannes has some...
Altar

The use of an altar

Of all kinds, the Altar is one of the most common pieces of lodge furniture in secret societies, usually placed at the center of the lodge room, draped with an altar cloth, and provided with one or more symbolic objects. The existence of altars in lodge rooms is one of the facts most often pointed out by Christian critics of secret societies to claim that the latter practice a non-Christian religion. In some cases this...
Albruna Gudrun

From Ritual to Romance

Like in all ancient Norse myths codes and messages are hidden within. Mainstream scholars like us to believe that these myths are just simple stories to entertain or to describe natural phenomena our dumb forefathers were too ignorant to understand. But these tales are like riddles and intellectual challenges to be solved and contain real wisdom and knowledge. Ms. Jessie L. Weston, after more than thirty years of study, wrote a little book entitled From...
Birgid cross

The mysterious Brigid

  To fully grasp a Deity, you need to make an effort to understand the heritage and characteristics of the very first people to worship that Deity. Brigid the Celtic goddess Brigid originated in the pantheon of the Celtic people—the inhabitants of Ireland and the British Isles. Similar to Brigid, the history of these folks is mysterious and multifaceted. You can somewhat decipher what’s going on, but a large amount of the heritage is lost. Mysterious artifacts reveal a little […]...

Hamingja and the supernatural guardians of the North

Hamingja, as used in the sagas, stands for an abstract conception, that of something belonging to an outstanding person which is partly a matter of character and partly of personality, and partly something more than either—that strange quality of ‘luck’ or luck-lessness’ which attaches itself to certain individuals more than others. It is something which can be handed on after death, and it usually remains within one family. It is usually connected with the name,...

The mysterious Celtic bard Taliésin

Keep this story in mind too, as the Maier Files huge storyline will continue. Surprising links exist with historical battles and quests. As said before, there’s always more than meets the eye. The tale of Taliésin is written down in the french book “Bélisama ou l’Occultisme celtique” by Ernest Bosc (1895). Belisama or Belisana is a supreme Celtic Goddess, and the virgin mother, more on that in another post. The legend of the famous celtic...

The Mystical Power of Thor’s Hammer

Thor’s Hammer, known as Mjölnir, is one of the most iconic symbols in Norse mythology. Revered by ancient Norse societies, Mjölnir was more than just a weapon of war; it was a symbol of protection, blessing, and power. The thunderous hammer was wielded by Thor, the god of thunder, who used it to protect Asgard and Midgard (the Earth) from giants and other monstrous beings. The Complex Nature of Thor Thor might appear to be a straightforward god—a powerful warrior […]...
