I'm new and in search of helpful advise

Post by Goodfellow »

It is by providence that I have found this forum, the will of the wyrd. I've traveled a long road in philosophy to understand myself as my self, my, and self, and it's connection beyond ego. Noticing this rabbit hole was far less a find as it was where the signs had lead me. For now I observe with open heart and mind to learn but must admit mathmatics and gematria are not a strength of mine, a familiarity i am being lead to bolster. Through Telsla i learned the significance of golden ratio in frequency and the divinity of 9, I've attempted to follow Crowley's formulas but got quite lost as I am here beyond basics. I've built my foundation of thought upon the tao and the stoic teachings of Marcus Aurelius and Epictitus, I've built my ethics through the nine noble virtues of asatru, and I've dabbled in Kabala and Hermetisism and feel that my ability in gematria is my limitation. I seek helpful advise that could help this luberfiend continue to expand in consciousness.
The most common mistake people make when designing something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools.

I don't know if I can help you, but I love phylosophy. During my year in Terminale in 2017-2018 (I am only 17 yo). I learned to love phylosophy. For this, my professor suggested to me an author, his name is Bernard Werber. I know, he is french, like me, but I think that you can find your happyness through his books. For example, I began to read one of his books entitled "Les Thanatonautes". This come of greek, Thanatos, the Death and Nautès, explorer.

Heilsan & Kom Heill Goodfellow to the Oracle Forum community and thank you for your post. I am currently clinging to the coattails of rapidly disappearing time, so forgive my late acknowledgement.

A most pleasing aspect of your post is the fact that you obviously feel a strong connection to Norse spirituality. I have attempted to expand upon the references made to this aspect within your post.

The word Wyrd is actually drawn from Anglo Saxon culture and is a concept roughly corresponding to fate or personal destiny, which in turn more or less equates to its cognate word in old Norse, Uror [which became anglicised as urd and is also the name of one of the Norns]. The Norns in Norse mythology are female beings who rule the destiny of gods and men. They approximate to other collective controllers of human destiny, occurring elsewhere in European mythology, such as the Fates.

There are three specific Norns that are deemed to more important than their fellows:- Uror (Wyrd), Veroandi and Skuld, who will emerge from a hall standing beside the Well of Uror or Well of Fate. They draw water from the well and gather up the sand that lies around it, which they then pour over Yggdrasill, the immense mythical tree that connects the nine worlds in Norse cosmology, so that its branches will not rot.

Norse Mythology’s nine worlds, are called Niflheim, Muspelheim, Asgard, Midgard, Jotunheim, Vanaheim, Alfheim, Svartalfheim and Helheim. The nine worlds in Norse mythology are held in the branches and roots of the world tree Yggdrasil.

The number nine is a key power number within the main site’s alphanumeric transposition system. It can represent both force for light and human good as well as dark side power with the opposite effect.
Nine is a recurrent force of course in Norse spirituality, Nine Worlds and also in the case of the Nine Noble Virtues which you embrace Goodfellow, they have become the core day to day values and life-conduction code structure to which you and hopefully many, many others adhere.

The Nine Noble Virtues are a set of moral and ethical guidelines based on virtues found in historical Norse paganism.They were gathered from various sources including the Poetic Edda, especially the Havamal, the Sigrdrifumal, and in the Icelandic Sagas.

The Nine Noble Virtues are:

1. Courage (Valiance)
2. Truth (Sincerity)
3. Honour
4. Fidelity
5. Discipline
6. Hospitality
7. Self Reliance
8. Industriousness (Diligence)
9. Perseverance

If more of us followed this code in today’s fractured dysfunctional world, across governing and grass roots human kind, it would be an altogether better place.
