FULL PLATE DISPATCH #2
The land is in turmoil and chaos.
The realms of man have lost their connection to tree and soil, and the face of the divine is hidden from them.
In their confusion and despair, they have raised up new idols, created new gods in diverse images: the Great Dragon of technology, scientism and "progress" who holds the key to the flickering gates of the sprawling Electronic Prison, its artificial corridors reaching from highest mountain to most distant sea.
The Golden Bull of the marketplace, whose worship is in both hoarding and buying, acts of supreme avarice and greed that view material wealth as the highest power.
The Scarlet Woman, called Pleasure, ever changing her form. Her adherents make obeisance with slackened jaws and dull eyes to acts of empty carnality, experiencing narcosis from an excess of everything.
Enslaved to sexual gratification, to stimulation, to the chains of the flesh…the Scarlet Woman beckons with beautiful hands and painted lips, but under her robe is open sores and a graveyard.
In raising these new gods, and thinking themselves so very clever and liberated, they have degraded everything to its lowest and ugliest form.
The ideal has been traded for profit.
The trial and ordeal has been traded for a virtual world.
Honor, loyalty and discipline have been bartered and prostituted, mocked, and put to a slow death by the unwashed and unwell mob.
The gods and heroes have been forgotten…
Almost.
Above the face of this dark and strange earth, there hangs a star men call Polaris.
Its location is unchanging- ever it keeps fai:T:h with princes.
This star for us is representative of the Ideal, of the Divine- of that white heat within us that calls out to us and beckons us ever onward toward something more than mere living.
It is undying hope. Purpose.
It is the sign of our Nobility, that is gained only through Virtue and Fidelity.
We set our sights, chart our course with that highest and most faithful of stars, that is our own highest expression-
It is a shining banner and a piercing light for others to follow amid all this darkness.
It is a defiant shout, saying: "Fear Not! For Strong Forces Are At Our Aid!"
The Star blazes at the top of our invincible new heraldry, and calls out to the greatness lying within all of us in potential.
NEXT:
A Cross, to combat Death.
Virtus et Fides, Nobilitas Sunt!

THE TOWER
It is a great thing to be alive during a time of great chaos, change, uncertainty and upheaval.
The strength and fortitude of the tower is not tested save during the siege, and so it is with men.
Those of worth will show the greatest resistance and resilience when faced with extreme pressure from without, and their walls will not crumble.
More, they will act not only to defend themselves, but as a mighty fortress that protects all within its inner circle from the forces of darkness without.
Do not simply survive the New Dark Ages.
Conquer them.

First look at a few pages from Issue 0 of RTACTN, which we are finishing up this week.
In this article, Might is Rite, ritual concepts are explored, and a sample is given based on our own Winter Solstice rite.
“In some Hindu texts, there is an idea that when the priests stop performing the old ceremonies, the world itself comes to an end.
In many ways, this is true.
When we stop performing the rituals of the sun and the moon, of the blood, of naming our children, of taking fire to the high peaks…our world comes to an end. The world of our people as something that has a sense of itself, and of our place in this ongoing story, this continuing mythos.
To perform ritual is to pour blood into deep channels first carved countless thousands of years ago- to redden those riverbeds, nearly dry, and to revitalize and make holy our very existence.”

THREE OF SWORDS
“A man’s best counsel often lies in his own heart.”
The man of worth must not get caught up in the emotional turmoil of the mob, and all its petty concerns, distractions, its fears and its rages.
He must also remain above praise and condemnation, seeking neither, and simply doing what he knows is right, as dictated by the burning flame of the Eternal.
The Three of Swords in its Dolorous seeming is representative of deep pain, sorrow, or grief, usually “inflicted” upon one by others.
It is a card of betrayals, disillusionment- of heartbreak, and dark thoughts and deeds.
And yet, a man may be said to be defined by his pain, and his relationship to it, as Ernst Junger famously said.
In other words, it is not necessarily our pain itself that dictates who we are- but how we have overcome it, and borne it.
How we have been made stronger by it…or undone and unmanned.
Like a knight on the battlefield dying in pain and blood, who refuses to make an “unchivalrous” sound, this is how we should bear our daily hardships.
It is not those around us who affect us emotionally, but we ourselves who allow them to take control of the strings, and manipulate us with words, actions, and so on.
They did not “make us” angry- our anger was there already, before them. We simply allowed them access to it.
Take care who you give the keys to the inner chambers of your heart.
In its Joyous seeming, this card represents the man who is calm, confident, in control, and knows he is on a path of righteousness.
He is unswayed by the emotions and feelings of the mob or the people around him, and stays to his course.
He conquers his own darkness and wears the armor of Truth, through which no sword can pierce.

“The true life is something beyond life, an endless Ritual that unites Truth and Action, combined with furious, perfect intensity...
Perfect awareness and perfect experience are united.
All is possible.
You see the way to comradeship and conquest, power and honor, blood and brotherhood, heroism and loyalty.
This is nothing less than eternal life.
A man lives forever in the tales that are told of him – and if consciousness endures beyond what we call death, our oldest myths teach that it is a prize only awarded to heroes, those who earn the mantle of godhood through Righteous Action.”

FULL PLATE DISPATCH # 4
This is the New Dark Ages, and we are still living in a kind of feudal system.
The lords of the day are the merchant class, the plutocrat, the demagogue- the peasantry is everyone else.
Under the rule of law and the rule of “have or have not,” the rank and file of humanity is ground under the heel of the boot of profit and “progress.”
Human value is almost entirely derived from wealth, or from the most prized exotic victim status- entertainers, whores, and common criminals are the highest strata of the global social elite.
Archaic words like “honor” and “integrity” are simply utilized as ironic jokes, or as marketing and advertising terms by humans who have become soulless, self-programmed machines that produce currency.
The real rulers of this world are servants of the Golden Bull, the Scarlet Woman, the Great Dragon- principalities and powers who run this theatre from off the stage, shadowy cabals who practice whole-sale human sacrifice at this triune altar.
They have given themselves over to the worship of this unholy trinity, and they shackle the world in service to them as well- many shackle themselves, thinking that service of the Bull is freedom, or service of the Dragon is love.
Beneath the Cross of Iron in our heraldry: three drops of blood.
Their names are Virtus, Fides, Nobilitas.
Virtue, which also means strength, skill, power, masculinity, quality.
Fides - faith. Belief. Loyalty.
Nobilitas: nobility, heritage, renown.
Virtus et Fides, Nobilitas Sunt:
“Virtue and Loyalty are Nobility.”
Our heritage is not necessarily one of social aristocracy, but if we fight this fight, we are aristocrats of the trenches, men who have made ourselves noble through courage and indomitable will, through total adherence to our divine ideal.
We are faithful and obedient to this ennobled self forever, serving the highest expression of ourselves, which is the true lord- not this hideous class of perverted patricians claiming dominion over this earth.
Our blood is the highest offering we can sacrifice for our ideals- to give our lives to a cause greater than ourselves, and to serve it faithfully with virtue and high ability grown from dedicated action.
To give one’s blood, one’s time, one’s life to their cause or for their brothers is the truest expression of love and of loyalty.
May we all be given the opportunity to show our dedication- honor is grown from acts of loyalty alone.
NEXT:
The Holy Grail, that we may never die.

FULL PLATE DISPATCH #5
We were not meant to live the life of normal men- but to become the stuff of future memory.
Not to grind out our existence in service to the Dragon, the Bull, or the Scarlet Woman, trading in our hours for a flickering screen, a handful of dust, a momentary pleasure.
To say “someday” or “if only,” but knowing inside that “someday” will never come, and “if only” will be “never was.”
We were meant to shake the earth with our passing.
To place our golden deeds into the vault of time and remembrance, becoming immortal heroes who stood for Truth and Glory.
Men, you must put off the sickness of inaction and set yourself onto the only path with any meaning at all:
The Eternal and Endless Campaign for the Holy Grail.
But what is the Grail?
Its legend has called to men for time immemorial, long before the star was seen in the desert, or a prophet was put to death in a place called “Skull.”
Before it was said to have fallen as a stone from Lucifer’s crown, its fame was known to certain peoples and places - a wondrous cup, or stone that could give life, power, renown.
The quest of kings who ruled over the land and were connected to the land itself…
We know what it is, and we know how to find it:
The Grail is the Quest itself, and its fulfillment - it is The Grand Campaign for Meaning and Spirit.
To be called to join this Campaign is a great cry within the blood that speaks to some, and with a mighty voice shouts to us: “Go forth!”
We who were not meant to live these small and desperate lives, but to strive endlessly for shining glory, and honor bright.
Our meaning comes from the hunt for meaning and the dedication we give to our ideal...each action of Loyalty, or Virtue, or Nobility shown on the path of our cause is a drop of blood in the grail, filling its depth with power and invincibility.
To be a bearer of this Holy Cup, to seek renown and righteousness in this endeavor, to be a hero marching in this Grand Campaign:
This is what it means to live forever.
NEXT:
Sword and Lance- and a call to arms!

THE KNIGHT OF CUPS
While it is important for men to be driven to action, it is equally important for that action to be inspired by things that are both imaginative and beautiful.
“Men of action” who are not inspired by a masculine mythology and poetic worldview will still create-
They will simply create a world both ugly and brutal, and devoid of imagination.
When applying ourselves to an ideal, it should be one that inflames our higher passions, stokes the ardor and instills in us a sense of the heroic and the romantic.
Only the dull and defeated see this life as anything other than a quest for the highest expression of loyalty, of strength, and of glory.
This is the true campaign for the Holy Grail.
