This is very interesting because I had my own theory that I had read and incorporated. This is another level in advancement but using some of the same symbols.
It starts with the Void and plasma bursting forth violently and the Father, Fire or Weak Force being born into the multiverse. Following this The Mother incarnates as Water or Electromagnetism and their union creates first the Son, Air and the Strong Force. Finally, the daughter of Earth or Gravity comes forth to balance the forces.
I'll give more detail but they correspond with Yod, Hav, Wau, Have. I also link them with the Grail Hallows and will look forward to trying to explain but immediately I prefer the imagery you are using and I am keen to learn more about your insight.
aloha Mork42,
the differentiation of the elements was one of the first "metaphysics" projects I ever worked on, in one of the "accompanying essays" called "4 elemental forces," published first in 1999, along with the second part of my "Cheshire Sam" trilogy and some poetry, in 5 limited edition copies of a book called "Negative Zero," then later included with the first draft, in 2000, of my "formal system of metaphysics," the essay eventually made it into my print-on-demand published book, "the Metaphysicians' Desk Reference," and, by that point, formed a corner-stone of the theories expressed therein.
Because it was primary to the rest of my work, it was fundamental I got it right. The premise I started with was simply this: the 4 "terrestrial" or "classic" elements (water, air, fire and earth) can be attributed to the 4 "universal" elemental "forces" (gravity, E-M, fission and fusion). At first, I did not know which was properly attributed to which, and I did not want to base the entire premise on a simple guess, so I was at a loss. Finally, I set upon the attribution, made first by Plato in the Critias (where the correspondences were said to have originated in Atlantis) of the 4 elemental forces to the 5 platonic solids. In Plato, and all subsequent works, the 5 regular polygonal solids were attributed to the 4 elements and cosmos, thus: 1) cube = earth; 2) tetrahedron = fire; 3) octahedron = water; 4) isocahedron = air; 5) dodecahedron = cosmos.
I made a list of these, and then I made a parallel column list of the 4 elemental forces, thusly:
1) earth / fusion
2) fire / fission
3) water / gravity
4) air / electromagnetism
5) cosmos / tachyons
Then I began trying to re-order them into a pattern that would make the most sense, and remain as accurate based on the originally "Platonic" attributes as possible. I realised that, if earth stayed the same as the cube, it would only be the other 4 solids that could be re-arranged to the remaining elements and forces. I remade the list, also adapting the order to the complexities of the shapes, and then attributing the elements accordingly:
1) tetrahedron = 4 triangles + 6 edges + 4 corners = 14 total attributes.
2) octahedron = 8 triangles + 12 edges + 6 corners = 26 total.
3) cube = 6 squares + 12 edges + 8 corners = 26 total.
4) isocahedron = 20 triangles + 30 edges + 12 corners = 62 total.
5) dodecahedron = 12 pentagons + 30 edges + 20 corners = 62 total.
This placed earth / cube in the middle position, so I worked from there to attribute the "Platonic" solids to the elements, thus:
1) tetrahedron = fire
2) octahedron = water
3) cube = earth
4) isocahedron = air
5) dodecahedron = cosmos
I looked next at the orders the elements were said to have formed in by ancient cosmological myths:
In QBLH (descending):
1) atziluth = fire
2) yetzirah = air
3) beriah = water
4) assiyah = earth
in Greek (ascending):
1) earth = cube
2) water = octahedron
3) air = isocahedron
4) fire = tetrahedron
So, considering that the Greek and QBLHistical elements formed in the same order, though they were counted in the opposite directions between these twin schools, I remade the list thus:
1) fire / tetrahedron / atziluth
2) air / isocahedron / yetzirah
3) water / octahedron / beriah
4) earth / cube / assiyah
Finally, I distilled all these lists into a single system to decipher them all into one:
1) tachyons = tetrahedron (14) = cosmos / God (0)
2) gravity = isocahedron (62) = water / beriah (3)
3) electromagnetism = dodecahedron (62) = air / yetzirah (2)
4) fission = octahedron (26) = fire / atziluth (1)
5) fusion = cube (26) = earth / assiyah (4)
This has been essentially the same system I have used throughout almost all of my writings on the topics of cosmology or "metaphysics," theoretical sciences, etc. since 1999. It forms a back-bone of the structure of the "bund" degrees in the POD.
Hope this explanation sparks your neruons, Mork42. As always, PEACE! - Jon
Wow! That makes a lot of sense and some of these aspects I have tried to incorporate. The Platonic solids for example is key and I love the way you have used it. Typically I can not find my original source but I am confident I have expressed the key points.
I added to the system and incorporated the suits of the tarot as follows:
Fire = Spades/Rod/Wands
Water = Clubs/Cups
Air = Hearts/Swords
Earth = Diamonds/Pentacles
No doubt people will interpret things differently. In all honesty my understanding of the fundamental forces and the role they play is limited but I could see the elements, the suits of the Tarot and the Grail Hallows fitting more neatly with the four states of matter.
I like your use of Qabala and science and the way you have cross referenced to get to the best synthesis. Numerology and geometry are the underpinnings of the cosmos and as everything is based on nested sets with common denominators systems of this nature are resonating with me and probably thousands of others. here are a few links to compensate us for the one I cannot find.

It is is the basis of phallic symbolism and polarity that I find we get the dynamism of motion but your system is more advanced again utilizing the spectrum and fractal nature. Perhaps beyond my comprehension at present but really good food for thought. Thanks for the opportunity to ask questions.
Just found the one that started me off.

You may know better than I just how flawed this interpretation is.
Just clarifying is the square time or space?
.
Aloha Mork42,
To clarify for you, a flat square is only a shadow with 4 sides, serving as a symbol in 2-d of the 6-sided cube in 3-d. The cube itself is, in 3-d, only a shadow also, and thus also a symbol serving to signify a 4-d "hypercube" or tesseract, which has 16 corners, 24 edges and 16 sides (a total of 56 attributes). Insofar as a flat "square" is a shadow of a cube, and thus a cube is only a shadow of a tesseract, the 2-d square is a flat "symbol" for 3-d space, but the 3-d "cube" of space is, itself, only a symbol for the 4-d tesseract, which is a 4-space shape corresponding to the 4th axis of motion, entropy or time. The "square" as a flat symbol for this entire sequence of right-angled ploygonal rhomboids (the cube of 6 quares, the tesseract of 2 cubes, etc.) "travels" around the globe, influencing the migrating cultures of the local inhabitants, from west to east, while the flat-symbol of a "circle" (also signifying a "circle-sphere-torus" sequence) as a symbol of space migrates from east to west. The "suqare" of Hermes, the "cube" of Thoth and the "tesseract" of Tau-sub-Tau are symbolic of a negentropic, up-hill inclined evolutionary pro-social trend, while the "circle" of awareness, the "sphere" of influence and the "torus," the soul or aura, are symbolic of a pro-entropic, down-hill declining de-evolutionary anti-cultural trend. The former is considered "occult" and kept secret, and the latter is public "solar" cycle religion.

Here is a diagram from the "table of contents" (NEXUS) page for the forums on my website (benpadiah.com). Click the link below the pic for the actual "t.o.c" / NEXUS page, which clicks through to the various forums. The key is, thus:
IO#'s = 7°'s of the IOBB2 ("illuminati-order.com bulletin board" version 2)
00#'s = 7 issues of the "NEXUS" e-zine (topics varying from science to modern news)
"Church" (Lemurian economy) / "Senate" (Atlantean gov't)
"york," "scot," "ros," "GD" and "OTO" are the POD's "Bund" degrees
The above graphic places in arrangement the 12 gems and jewels of the breast-plate of the "high-priest" of the Temple, with the clouded and clear quartz pillars on either side and spectral colour-coded Platonic solids above forming the arched gateway of the Temple. Hope you find this helpful. I'm about to check out your link, but first let me reply to your PM. Will add any additional thoughts then. PEACE! - Jon
Aloha Mork42,
The link from mishkan.com you sent is interesting, definitely. The source of that article doesn't list Tony Smith or Stan Tennan (both Americans) in their "teachers" as influences on their site, but their work is definitely parellel to both of these other men. Are you familiar with either Tony Smith or Stan Tennan? Tony Smith wrote a book about Jack Sarfatti's applications of John Bell's "interconnectedness theorem" that uses complex n-dimensional geometrical lattices and is inspired largely by I Ching. Stan Tennan, founder of the Meru Foundation, is a modern-day QBLHistical Genius, a student of Buckminster Fuller and of the complete Zohar, and a personal hero of mine (although he once wrote me an angry email about my published book, the MPDR, saying I had "stolen all his work," which, obviously, is not true at all). Both of these two guys are serious "next level" sort of thinking, but they are operating along the same basic principle guidelines we are using right now to discuss our own studies. For example, our own independent works involving the 4 essential "elemental" principles is a basic, core, key concept of understanding numerology, ha QBLH, alchemy, metaphysics, cosmology, etc. The 4 "elements" are, like the 32 rows of Crowley's "777," simply a numbered group of related objects, and thus they can have correspondences that apply across the board in a wide variety of fields of scientific study.
Obviously, in discussing the 4 "elements" meme, we can't exclude our own teachers or those who laid the foundations for any work we could do, later, involving this topic. Obviously then we are considering everyone from the pre-Socratic "elementalist" Sophists (Heraclitus of fire, Zeno of air, Democritus of earth, Thales of water, Pythagoras of numbers) until the modern schools of quantum mechanics and astro-physics. However, among these some, of course, have contributed more to this meme than others. For example, Henry Cornellius Agrippa's 4 Books of "Occult Sciences" were an early influence on John Dee, who later founded the Rosicrucian Order (using the encryption method of Johannes Trithemius, Agrippa's teacher) and formulated the system of "Enochian Magic" (also based on a complex system of encryption). Much later, SL MacGregor Mathers managed to prove (as published in Israel Regardie's manual on the "Golden Dawn") that Dee's entire original system of the "4 Watchtowers" in his "Enochian Magic" system was actually based on a method of encryption using the 4 essential "elemental" attributes. Thus, Dee's 144-celled "Watchtowers" are actually 4 sets of 64 cells each.
I discuss my own studies along these lines at length in many of my ebooks, but the best resource I've posted for my conclusions online is on my own site, benpadiah.com, here: http://www.benpadiah.com/calendar.html
As always, hope to leave you inspired to learn more. PEACE! - Jon
Wow! Just brimming with praise after watching your videos and the concept of reinterpreting history in light on Deism is exactly what I have in mind. This is was always the purpose of Absolute Convergence although it began as Shaman Stories.
The Atlantean and Lemurian civilizations or epochs have resonated strongly since I began researching them and found about the legends of Mu and the myths pertaining to Mt Meru. I will prepare some files to upload tommorow.
Your messages are full of valuable information and know I am digesting. I have tended to read around the works of Crowley, Dee and others for inspiration rather than totally immersing myself in the learning of these systems. I know a lot about Crowley and the legends and conspiracies he is associated with. An enigmatic character of history but it is interesting to me how all the systems are really sophisticated and intellectualized forms of shamanism.
For the system I have in mind it would be more tangible to uninitiated minds and draws them on an upward path but at their own pace. For me if I read something too complex it can go over my head and will not be retained so I am more keen on a system with feedback that creates understanding using learning theory and taxonomy.
The potential applications are unlimited as I see it if the foundations are universal. I'm influenced by Dischordianism, Extropianism and Panentheism but it is Spircordeiosophy and is about spirit and mind. I think this is what Aquarius is about and I'm keen to develop something that has applications if not in the real world then in the virtual domain and capable of educating people on an array of subjects.
Because the system needs to be complex and multidimensional we would a team eventually but I'd like to think between us we could develop something that could be an innovation in media and electronic education. The imagination has no limits. Words have few boundaries and code needs a programmer but I bet we could have a framework that would impress enough programmers and investors. I'm not after money but I'd love to be a part of something new and creative that is putting philosophy and sacred knowledge into action and following the evolutionary spiral as it emerges from us as individuals.
What I have in mind is a stepped mountain structure that has Gates that reveal increasing depths of understanding but nurtures and cultivates individuality. There needs to be an interaction but if it is an immersive virtual reality then it has limitless dimensions.
The one thing I observe from reading and watching your work, is that women play a relatively minor role. My interpretation has the sacred feminine as being central and I'm wondering if you have understanding of why the new synthesis must as far as possible, minimize or undo the impediment Patriarchy has become. That is my opinion of course but I believe it is based on sound reasoning.
I'd also suggest that the sacred feminine lies at the heart of Abrahamism in all its guises and given the right conditions it is the preferred means of creating Kosmos (harmony).
I call the mountain Lacuna Sphire and the idea is to integrate nature, architecture and technology into the landscape to inspire awe. It begins on the ground level and the entrance is through multiple paths and the symbols of vesica pisces and the golden apples show the two sides hopefully of mythos and logos.
It's a bit late but I will send some documents tommorow.
I should also say how much I love the twelve gems. The number twelve obviously occurs with the 12 disciples and tribes of Israel. I also recall twelve gates of Eden so I'd like to incorporate that if you are willing. Originally I had intended for 7 gates but having secrets and paradoxes of that nature is the whole atmosphere I imagine would be most constructive.
Thank you for the references. I will definitely check them out because they are up my street. I was watching some Jahn and Sheldrake videos recently and in the past I've flirted with the works of Hammeroff, Wolf and some of the others.
I'd ask your opinion on people like David Wilcock, James Hurtak, Hoagland and Fulford? I've found myself to be mixed on all of them personally.
Thank you for sharing such thought provoking and in depth study to the world. My mind is ablaze with the possibilities because it does to some extent reinforce the intuition I have followed since I began the search seven years past. This does feel like the next phase if you like. No one at the forum has provided feedback on the Torus of Eschaton, Spircordeiosophy or Gates of Hesperia but truly I think they have value because they are emergent and fluid. All I am lacking is collaborators so know that your input no matter how much time you can afford would be greatly appreciated.

Aloha Mork42 (Jayce),
for my comments regarding the exact concepts expressed in your system, please refer to my PM in your inbox here on the POD.ning. For all intents and purposes I would prefer to talk about the subject of your hierarchical degree system as much via PM's for now as possible. It has been my experience too many others seek to influence any early stages of a developing system. I would like to keep those discussions touching on the matters of your own system to PMs for now, if you would not mind doing so. However, as always, I will be happy to discuss matters relating to the POD here, as well as any other topics, but I just want to keep the mentions of your system to PM discussions between us for now, if possible, and then we can decide how best to place those ideas uniquely your own into the contexts of this site that are uniquely mine. I hope you will understand and will not mind.
First, for the role of women in the POD, it is no different than the role of any man. Gender is irrelevant in the system of Atlantean Democracy. Because the Atlantean Senators are not allowed to show their faces, it is ultimately irrelevant who they are or what their own backgrounds are for them to be playing the role they are there to play by representing whichever group they are there to represent. This group, and thus the role played in the Senate, changes for any one person from time to time. Just as one can ascend from "quarrier" to "overseer" to "architect," so too can one belong to more than one of the "bund" degrees, and so too can a Senator serve on a jury or any priest become the Pope. Gender, skin colour, hair colour, eye colour - none of these things matter at all in "Atlantis" as far as I can imagine it.
As far as the names you dropped, "Jahn" and "Sheldrake," "Hammeroff," "Wolf," and "James Hurtak," I have never heard of any of them. David Wilcock I have a very low opinion of. Richard Hoagland and Benjamin Fulford are more respectable. Hoagland is on the right track, in my opinion, in looking at our own solar-system's planetary bodies as being dimensionally / time-space divided rippling reflections of a single planetary body, able to see its own future selves (closer to the sun) and its own past selves (further away). Fulford is the guy who interviewed John D. Rockefeller and asked his opinion about Ron Paul, right? He is okay too.
As far as "Dischordianism," "Extropianism," "Panentheism" and "Spircordeiosophy" go, I've only heard of "dischordianism" and only in the context of the novel "the illuminatus trilogy" by Robert Anton Wilson. It smelt like bull-shit to me, but honestly at the time I believed the appendices and manifesto attributed to Hagbard Celine were at least as good as the other works I was reading at the time, "TAZ" by Hakim Bey, "the abolition of work" by Jack Black, and "the electronic disturbance" by the critical art ensemble. Ever read any "Sub-Genius" literature? Some funny ass shit there.
I would like to learn more about "Extropianism," "Panentheism" and "Spircordeiosophy." None of these are even words I am familiar with. Also what does the term, in your context of using it, "taxonomy" mean? I was slightly confused, because I had it mixed criss-cross with "taxidermy." LMAO! Sorry about that. Anyway, hope this message brightens your brain-cells some, and that my tone in my PM doesn't sound too overly-critical to you about your own "cult"ish system. I do not mean you any harm. I am only stating what I believe to be the facts as I see them. I am always open to learning more. PEACE! - Jon
Thanks, I really appreciate your feedback and I'm happy that you have criticism to be honest. I am in no way precious of my own ideas or anything and simply love to discuss different perspectives.
I'm happy and impressed of the attitude you have in regards gender. It is very refreshing because most orders are Patriarchal and although this may not be true for the truly secret ones, the impressions one gets is generally of hierarchy, control and domination. With so many conspiracy theories in regards to mind control this is something I try and avoid and I'm so glad your system is one of equality and meritocracy.
I haven't actually read that specific theory from Hoagland but I'll have to check that out. It was very early in my quest I was drawn to Cayce and ended up with Wilcock.
I'll find some links and videos on the other people I mentioned as I think you'd be interested and I'll share some links that have influenced me on my own readings of Atlantis and Lemuria.
I have not read any "sub-genius" literature but a quick search reveals them to be of interest. Anarchists and Discordianists go together like bread and butter so although my reading is limited I have an idea I will enjoy looking into their body of work.
http://www.subgenius.com/bigfist/classic/classics/X0003_botsg-intro...
I am familiar with Hakim Bey but not Jack Black. I have read the Secret History of the World by Jon Black which impressed me. The "electronic disturbance" is another I will have to watch out for. Cheers.

Sounds cool.
I'm wondering if you've ever come across the site Tribes of Atlantis in your research. I became acquainted with the author on the Unexplained Mysteries forum and though he had some sound ideas a lot of it seemed to go off the deep end. However, I am no expert so am unable to judge effectively beyond a laymans perspective.
http://tribesofatlantis.blogspot.com/
What I admire about your writings is that there are less presumptions made as other writers tend to do. You seem to make less judgements and by being less specific in some regards I think the true value comes through.
There are a great many links I'd show you but I'm unsure if adding links on the aforementioned topics here is appropriate.
I did however, read some things recently I thought were pertinent here. I'll try and find them:
http://www.consult-iidc.com/english/science/theophysicsprinciples.htm
http://www.pymander.com/AETHEREAL/COSMIC~1.htm
http://www.quantumconsciousness.org/presentations/whatisconsciousne...
Check those and see how they fit with your understanding. Personally, I comprehend little of the last link but the first two do resonate. Lots more to dig out, show and tell. lol More to do with Atlantis and Lemuria but I figure the cosmogeny and the basis of consciousness is also important.
