The Fool is the wanderer who begins without guarantees and travels without a fixed plan. In mystical life, this image carries a truth that resists ordinary logic. There are seasons when the soul does not know the destination, when there is no fixed scheme for what is to come. The absence of a clear map…
This year the Great Feast of the Dormition unfolds under a sky with the Moon exalted in Taurus; the lunar current is strong, clothed in the earth. In her exaltation, she mirrors the role of Mary as the sacred container of the Light of the Logos, the Speculum Iustitiae in which divine justice reflects without…
The heavens have long told the tale of two archetypes who seem to share the same face under different veils. Guardian of tides and memory, the Moon embodies the Mother who nourishes and protects. Venus, star of dawn and evening, wears the mantle of the Beloved whose beauty draws the soul into union. In the…
The opening riff of “Thunderstruck” is a flash in the dark, the violent descent of a force that splits the heavens apart. This bolt is the arrow of a higher order, the discharge of a current that belongs to realms above the seven planetary spheres. This is the domain of the Ogdoad, the Eighth Heaven,…

The King of Wands belongs to the primal court, where flame has no need of fuel, and the Word remains unbroken in its source. Around him the Seraphim burn with a purity no mortal vision can endure; circles of living fire, faces hidden, their song an eternal single act of praise. There the sceptre of…
Today, the sixth of August, the Christian calendar sets apart the Mystery of the Transfiguration; the luminous moment on Mount Tabor when Christ is revealed as uncontainable radiance. The scene unfolds with gravitas; it is when the veil between worlds becomes diaphanous, shimmering with the interplay of Law and Prophecy, shadow and Word. The narrative,…
The Seven Sleepers remain enveloped in the silent procession of spheres. Drawn deep within the cave’s womb, they serve as living sigils of the soul’s journey through the manifest world; a locus where matter and Spirit embrace.
