This is Archeofuturism. It is the synthesis of sustainability and will, principle and form, timelessness and change, order and chaos, responsibility and creativity, duty and freedom.
Archeofuturism obliterates limiting systems and creates an openness out of which new forms may arise without the lingering corruption and stagnation of obsolete models of thought.
It is at once a radically open and thoroughly grounded framework - a synthetic worldview in the fullest meaning.
The Archeofuturist rejects attachment to labels and perspectives, preferring instead to utilize these things as tools for navigating the world. No clinging, only fluidity. All comes down to the vision, and circumstances are always framed in whaveter way is most conducive towards the manifestation of this vision.
The Archeofuturist likewise prioritizes critical/dynamic thought, self-actualization, and spiritual sovereignty. The expansion of consciousness is the basis out of which he acts.
The frame of Archeofuturism works to maximize the level of creativity and will to power that can be sustained without burning out in an uncontrollable diffusion of energy. It is vitalized balance.
Archeofuturism strikes the middle way, reconciling the Olympians and Titans:
Prometheus is sometimes translated as "forethought" and, as such, fundamentally represents the breaking out of one state into another - he is innovation and the progenitor of the new. He is the radical overthrowing of an existing order and the bringer of a new dawn.
In this context, he represents opposition to the Olympians and what would be framed as stagnant order. He is a new light illuminating a new day for mankind and all of those clinging to old forms screech and shield their eyes from this blinding sunrise.
Yet, for the crime of stealing the Olympian fire, and with it giving humanity technology, knowledge, and civilization, Prometheus was condemned by Zeus to eternal torment. He was bound to a rock, and an eagle (the emblem of Zeus) came to peck out his liver every day in an endless cycle, not unlike that of the Buddhist conception of samsara.
Now, if we view things from a bit of a different angle than just the Olympian = oppressor mentality, we can pull something else out of this.
Thinking about Zeus as the creator of all things and as representing law and order (the order which upholds all of reality), then we see Prometheus from the frame of someone always grasping for the new with no thought of any validity that the pre-existing may have - someone rashly casting aside the old simply out of discontent.
For this transgression, Prometheus had eternal suffering inflicted upon him specifically focusing on the liver. This is important because in ancient Greece, the liver was thought to be the seat of emotions. Could we not say that the Buddhist conception of duhkha is experienced through the emotional sense of lack and hollowness?
When we break this down, we see how the endless pursuit of newness and will simply for the sake of it is not sustainable and inevitably leads to eternal suffering. That Prometheus, as the embodiment of human striving, while absolutely having great value, is not in and of itself enough.
What is clear is that there must be a balance between the two sides. There has to be a synthesis.
It is the creative and innovative Promethean essence which Archeofuturism encompasses within the futurist pole while balancing it with the groundedness and order of the Olympians on the archaic side.
It is in this way that Archeofuturism must be understood as a truly dynamic and authentic synthesis in the most profound sense - it takes the positive elements from seemingly opposed poles and merges them together into a new fusion. This fusion transcends the limits of either position and opens up pathways and opportunities that would previously have been impossible.

The Mystery of the Grail: The Celtic Cauldron
The origins of the grail mythos is often widely disputed with many citing it as a strictly Christian relic while others look to further afield to Persia and the near East. In tracing back it’s mythological origins the Celtic Cauldron holds a significant role as a cultural and mythical object and is considered to be the precursor to the Grail.
The cauldron appears as a prominent motif within Celtic narratives, with the Dagda, a deity, possessing a ‘cauldron of plenty’ that nourishes valiant warriors but denies food to cowards.
The cauldron is also associated with the Celtic goddess Cerridwen, her magical cauldron takes a year and a day to brew its potent knowledge and inspiration potion. Her wisdom earns her the Crone status, aligning her with the darker aspect of the Triple Goddess. Symbolised by a white sow, she embodies both fertility and motherly strength as a goddess of the Underworld. Cerridwen is revered by for her connection to the full moon as both the Mother and the Crone. This vessel also appears within the Celtic legend of Bran the Blessed. Bran, mighty warrior-god, obtains a magical cauldron of wisdom and rebirth from Cerridwen.
The cauldron while also perhaps a physical vessel symbolizes rebirth, renewal, fertility, and sustenance, often linked to water-based cults. Actual Celtic cauldrons have been discovered in aquatic settings, indicating they were offered as votive objects.
Notably, the Gunderstrup cauldron was dismantled and placed in a peat bog as a ritual offering. A similar practice involved depositing valuable weaponry into bodies of water as offerings to otherworldly water deities, echoing the Arthurian tale of the Lady of the Lake gifting and later reclaiming Excalibur.
Irish mythology recounts four magical items, including the Cauldron of the Dagda. These artefacts were introduced to Ireland by the Tuatha de Danaan, a conquering race described as Otherworld faery beings. These items, along with the Stone of Destiny, the Spear of Lugh, and the Sword of Nuada, held symbolic importance in Celtic culture. In the Grail stories, these magical items serve as the basis for the symbols of the Cup, Spear, Stone, and Dish, collectively known as the four hallows.

Don't accidentally challenge fate. Do it on purpose.
Wish for the things you need for your development. Wish for a heck of a lesson on something you've been struggling with for ages. Life will give it to you exactly as you've asked for, full force, no holding back.
Exactly as you need, and never more than you can handle.
And exactly as you wish, so mind your wording.
I've been quietly hoping for a course of events that would force me to change. I wished for a teaching that even my thick stubborn little mind could grasp. And here I am, getting a wonderful chance at learning spontaneity, to cut me loose from the limitations of trying to plan every little thing in advance.
If in your heart of hearts, you are (even secretly or unknowingly) aiming to achieve something — and your wishing goes beyond the mundane "I want"s and "I need"s because it emerges from a deeper source, for a higher cause — be ready to get thrown around in the crashing waves of experience as a new reality unfolds, shifting to align with your wishful thinking.
Stay present throughout. Ride the wave. 🌊
Know that you're only ever facing certain events on your path because of your steering that way. Even if it's not done consciously, you're still influencing the course of events. All the time.
We deeply open up to the opportunity to learn by wishing that life teach us a lesson about something we're struggling with.
Life does the teaching, all we need to do is apprehend. Take it in.
Regular mindfulness practice will allow for awareness and a calm sense of trust throughout the chaotic process.
With awareness, we may spot the mechanisms that lie beneath turbulent occurrences by observing our own thought and action patterns with their respective outcome, thus enabling us to use these mechanisms to our own advantage and to the benefit of all.
Without awareness, we may get stuck on the perception that all the bad things happening are ultimate. Instead of seeing the transformative character of hardship and challenges, we may perceive them as the be-all, end-all, and fall into suffering. We'd be taken by the tide rather than riding the waves.
Thus, we create merit or doom ourselves.
The choice is entirely ours.

Fortunately, some are born with spiritual immune systems that sooner or later give rejection to the illusory worldview grafted upon them from birth through social conditioning. They begin sensing that something is amiss, and start looking for answers. Inner knowledge and anomalous outer experiences show them a side of reality others are oblivious to, and so begins their journey of awakening. Each step of the journey is made by following the heart instead of following the crowd and by choosing knowledge over the veils of ignorance.

Allow your physical form to be a projection of your spirit: Flow forwards and up eternally as though you're reaching for your creator. Integrate a sense of sacredness into every move you make. Manifest the ethereal essence in the mundane realm.
Understand that auras and energetic fields are very real. The space-in-between perceived physical forms is more significant than is often assumed, and it is filled to the brim with meaning and information.

There is no such thing as coming to a good poise and then stopping.
The only true state of fully conscious presence that resembles power is a state of constant inner motion out of unobscured potential.

Is this material world an illusion, or worst still, a prison?
This is the worldview commonly associated with the Gnostics, and is undeniably blasphemous to the Pagan mind. But is it really what the Gnostics believe(d)? Certainly not if you ask one-time Fyrgen Podcast guest and scholar John Lamb Lash.
Some German friends recently introduced me to the 1982 animated film 'The Last Unicorn' which, despite being a children's film, is quite enjoyable. One scene in particular caught my attention, because it rather perfectly expresses what I believe to be the true Gnostic message regarding illusion.
In this scene it is revealed that a 'witch' is able to alter how men perceive reality, but never to alter reality itself. The false Demiurge and Archons spoken of by the Gnostics are, likewise, able to deceive mankind into mis-perceiving the natural world, but cannot create or alter material reality itself.
Nature is wondrous in her display and intent. Deception is the ugly polyester robe cast upon her.

“The new Age of Aquarius is the Age of ‘Knowing’, traditional astrologers considered the whole Age, all 2150 years, to belong to Saturn, but recent astrologers, since the rediscovery of Uranus, have placed the father of Saturn (Uranus) as the ruler for the first 1000 years of this epoch. This makes for a very interesting contrast of planetary energies influencing humanity. While the controlling elite, predominantly aligned with Saturn, are expanding their restrictive Saturnian control grid; Uranus, the planet of rebellion, revolution and unpredictability will be pouring out cosmic frequencies over the human consciousness. Energetic vibrations of freedom, new technology and a need to break with tradition. This will certainly lead to interesting times.”

Controlling the Storms of Anger
when something raises that fiery feeling within you
The spirit of anger is trying to possess you
rather than just feeling and becoming the anger - possibly passing the spirit on to others around you...
STOP - and question WHY something has made you angry.
Has some event transpired that reminded you of your own shortcoming?
Did you take something personally and take offence to something - when you could have just let it pass?
Are you defending some fake egoic nonsense that doesn’t matter?
When the spirit of anger gets hold of person, it can make you curse people who are important in your life. It can make you say things that you don’t mean. It can lead you to actions that you may regret forever.
To let anger control you or your actions is to allow your life to be built on quicksand.
Analyse what it is that your ego feels threatened or diminished by.
Did you make the conscious decision to feel this anger?
No - it arose of its own accord.
once you KNOW that its not coming from you - and you recognise that you don’t want to embody this and let something else other than your own consciousness control you - the anger disappears.
Obviously there are some situations where it is morally ‘right’ and deserving to feel anger - but make sure you are not getting angry and upset over trivial bullshit or rising to the bait that someone has provoked you with.
99/100 times in our day-to-day life, it is not a situation that deserves anger, and there are hardly ANY times where allowing the anger to control us is the right decision.
Even if Anger is the correct moral response, ACTION taken while embodying anger is never the smartest plan of attack, if you want to rectify the unjust situation
You cannot be given offence, only take it. This applies to all things. No buffoon in the street can disturb your inner peace unless you allow it first.
We’ve all made mistakes saying something in anger that we don’t truly mean. We wish we could take it back. But we can't, instead we should develop the control to utilise or direct our anger for good instead.
Not to mention the numerous biological negatives of feeling excessive emotional turbulence - cortisol spiking, heart rate rising; your body in a state of perpetual sympathetic nervous system arousal because everything around you 'makes' you respond with anger
Some even theorise that those with cancers in the body have had years of repressed anger held inside.
it is in your best interests to manage the storm of emotional thought that most people let control them.
Observe the emotion as it arises in your waking mind - and let it pass. This is the essence of conscious awareness and with practice, can work to give us back control of our minds.
To be a slave to the unending river of unconscious thoughts is to allow our demons to control us. The first step is recognising we are in control.
