We started with a novel assumption.
The ancient rituals were designed in a way to encode information about the cosmos... and about ourselves.
The result was a new approach to life, morality, and physics.
The definition of stability is described in stonemasonry's lessons of repetition and workmanship. This ancient teaching is still practiced today... and, given it's in (an older) English, it's much easier to translate than the ancient myths.
These procedures are interpreted such that the 3 Masonic Pillars support a functional, oscillating widget at a point in the middle.
The proposal:
This widget represents the forces acting on the Earth while its traveling through the cosmos.
This widget is a metaphor of how a mason can act 'upright' and moral.
The creation of this widget allows for a physical device to fill in the gaps of the moral lessons, and the moral lessons fill in the gaps of the physical device.
After searching the corners of the cosmos, it was discovered that only humans use corners.
The universe seems perfectly content with loops, ellipses, spirals, and wandering clouds of gas. Humans, meanwhile, keep showing up with rulers, graph paper, floor plans, spreadsheets, and decided to invent corners to communicate with the surrounding world.
This article examines how knowledge can survive even when the historical timeline that created it is lost. Traditions often preserve patterns of practice rather than explanations, allowing skills and ideas to pass through generations.
Over time, tools become symbols and procedures become stories, yet the underlying instruction remains—the past encoded in practice.
Sharpen your ability to observe repeating patterns in nature—from the daily motion of the sun to the broader rhythms of the heavens.
Unwrapping the sky onto a flat screen demonstrates the sine wave motions of the heavenly bodies that oscillate with us through the cosmos.
'Back in the day' we used to follow the sky the way we follow influencers today. Start by organizing these motions in your mind.
Each culture defines a system where centered, tuned oscillation transforms raw motion into coherent and interpretable alignment.
Most cultures:
Define a center point
Create a vertical pillar (like the Djed)
Tensioning Elements (rope)
Definition of dominion (a frame)
Engagement via ritual (excitation and forced motion)
Stability is enacted at the control point.
Different name for the same phenomenon:
Greeks - Delphi
Egyptians - Djed
Norse and Mesoamericans - World Tree
