Helios (Sun) is the Demiurgus, the producing cause of every thing sensible, in consequence of being the cause of site and visibility. Of all vital powers, Zeus (Jupiter) is the common cause; but of all gnostic powers, Kronos (Saturn). -Proclus, from his Commentary on the Timaeus

The universe is the motion of the soul.

Soul is totally present to every point, just as all of tonal space is present to the sound of a musical note.

Each star unfolds its own cosmos.

It’s our belief that the astrological mandala is a fragment of an archaic sapiential wisdom, devised by wise sages of the past. This mandala of signs & planets presents the topography of the subtle world thru forms available in sensible becoming, inspiring us to enrich our lives.

For Plotinus the Earth is alive.

Plotinus distinguishes the ascent to Intellect where Forms are contemplated, from the final ascent to the One that transcends the Noetic cosmos. Dialectic is related to the former ascent in which Forms raise the soul from sensible to intelligible reality in its upward aspiration.

The body is in the soul.

Self-motion is the peculiarity of soul and life.

For Plato, a Daimon is an ancient Greek spiritual being who watches over an individual, or could be an angel or even one’s own higher self. Plato is called ‘divine’ by Neoplatonists while his student Aristotle is a ‘daimonios’ which is lower than Plato at an intermediary level.

There is in the Nature-Principle itself an Ideal archetype of the beauty that is found in material forms, and the still more beautiful archetype in Soul, source of that in Nature. -Plotinus, The Enneads

This infinite light, the Sun Soul, is a principle of consciousness and intelligence that thinks the world into existence. Together with the living system of planetary souls, our Sun unfolds its World-Idea as the Solar System, our own cosmic circuit that participates in infinity🌞

The rational soul is called a circle because it seeks itself, is itself sought, finds itself and is itself found. Whereas the irrational soul imitates a right line since it doesn’t revert to itself as a circle does and takes itself away from the center which should be its source.

It is Truth alone that gives strength.

This is the only prayer that we should have: to tell ourselves and to tell everyone else that we are divine.

It’s gonna be halfway thru summer before it becomes spring.

Where does all the knowledge in this world come from? From us. Is it outside us? No. All knowledge in this world is within. No one fabricates it on their own—it’s deep in the self. Knowledge and soul power are integral components only if let in, and soul is here for each and all.
