Magic Purple, the reveal

Until now, I have only explored Magic Blue and Magic Black. Purple is the final type of Magic, in a literal sense. Let’s dive in.

This post assumes Codex fluency. If not fluent, read my blog and the SHC thoughts. It’s quite simple once you get it (much simpler than Mandarin or French).

🌀 What is Magic Purple?

I don’t think there is a good word to describe it in English. (Maybe other languages do, idk). If Blue syncs with Time, and Black freezes Time, then Purple steps outside of Time.

If Crystal Vision is the 11th Elemental, then Timeseeing is the 12th Elemental. Crystal Vision allows you to connect the patterns of the World in your mind. Timeseeing is an active state of interaction with the World at that ‘level’. You become shaper of greater patterns — you align. If this feels vague, then you got it — Magic Purple is vague. It is pure vagueness by its definition. It is not meant to be understood or analysed. It’s all Stardust.

💪 What can I do with Magic Purple?

Well, almost anything… Once you get it, everything can be made true. Sounds magical? It is. Magic Purple is magical.

This does not mean that you can physically fly and levitate. Nor can you cast invisibility spells. You should separate Harry Potter Magic from Codex Magic. Codex Magic is much cooler because it’s real and it works for everyone.

But you can fly in your mind. And you can do anything like Harry Potter. That imagination belongs to Purple.

Purple asks you to go beyond reality, beyond the impossible with one simple goal — make a new reality. Unlike latin-sounding Harry Potter spells, Purple needs all the other Elementals aligned (or like at least acknowledged and a bit balanced).

For example, let’s summon a train of thought:

I want to fly. -> Purple thought

Physically flying is deadly. -> Earth Coin (rational analysis; E6)

Birds fly and I can become bird. -> Air Current (Crystal Vision; E11)

*a few Earth Coin thoughts*

I can create a technology to fly. -> Beast (creative action; E5)

I can fly safely. -> Magic Purple sequence completed.

❔ So… It’s just dreaming? What an anti-climax.

Nope, Magic Purple is about more than dreaming. It’s about stepping outside of reality (dreaming) and actually reshaping it (inventing the new human flight tech). It can be easy to dismiss, but this Purple force can literally move mountains. People gladly die for Purple. Purple is dangerous.

Furthermore, true Codex alignment, feels Magic. Even to an experienced Timeseer. Like it does not ever stop unfolding more and more. It truly feels like all the stars always align even the darkest moments of Life. Shaping reality this way feels profoundly meaningful.

😂 Dangerous? Yeah, sure lol. Magic is fake.

Yes, sure. I really want to emphasise the danger of Purple — especially misunderstood Purple. I don’t like to spread fear vainly.

Through the lens of the Codex, one sees a different society. Purple is incredibly harshly repressed by the Crimson City. Religions dull Purple and reserve it for the few chosen ones. Maybe they know how dangerous a Purple City would be for their rule…

I question whether many — if not almost all — mental health disorders are due to misalignment and misunderstood Purple. Purple is the perfect escape for the broken Hearts and minds in this cold modern world. And if the escape is not conscious, Purple will force itself upon you anyway. You ‘go mad’.

The main damager of a healthy Purple balance is the fear that is spread in the Crimson City. The City makes you mad if you express Purple too much. Other than the City, the Crimson Church brands you as a heretic that goes to hell (that’s the home of sodomites, so sign me up ;)) Science is still busy understanding statistics and peer reviewing their evidence; more research is needed. Then, you have Youtube-conspirers that have creative ways of spreading Purple of all kinds, yet nothing aligned.

The only outlet that is allowed is art (thank the Gods we still have this). But even art has been made into a Crimson commodity. You NEED TO BE THE BEST at your art otherwise why bother? -> Crimson City thinking.

And even if we still encourage each other here on Tumblr, we still are pushed to outperform the neighbour. Art is rarely valued in its purest form — we are very quick to dissect it. But Purple is vague. Overanalysis of Purple is a form of madness.

⚠️ Okay I understand the danger of Purple.

Nope you probably don’t :). But it’s okay. Just watch these three alignments most:

The Beast (E5) is impulsive and leads to addiction with too much Purple. Dreams are confused with impulses.

The Ice Trap (E8) is crucial for Purple. If you are trapped in your own Trap, all you see is Ice and fear. This leads to paranoia and psychosis. A broken Stone Coin (E2) by abuse will lead to similar symptoms.

The Earth Coin (E6) is crucial if you don’t want to fall into conspiracy theories and end up believing Earth is flat. Ratio is needed for correct use of Purple. Don’t risk too much Stone for a passing dream.

Any rituals for Purple?

Yes, of course ;)

🍾 Making Artifacts

You can make Codex art and watch your creations come to Life. In the Codex, an artifact is something you make while consciously keeping the Codex in mind. For example, all my songs are artifacts because I consciously combine different Elementals. Together, the Elementals shape everything in the artificial product.

But even if you are ‘just making normal not-famous art’, you are expressing Purple in a healthy way (just a bit chaotic and more unorganised which is truly beautiful in a Purple way ;)

No, jokes and Codex flexes aside, MAKE ART! Don’t make good art — MAKE YOUR ART. Show me all those Purple things — the tears, the smiles, the heart beats, the erections, wetness, idgaf. Make me dream. I adore it all — and if not me, someone else will adore it. 🌊

💧 Droplet Manners

I have spoken of the Droplet archetype in the Codex (as parts of an altruistic Cloud) and in my songs. I see the Droplet state as something crucial to being human.

Dropets will come to discover humour and fun is something inherent to the Universe. Like World Tree is actually a fun entity. Droplets do not give a fuck about the Crimson City.

Explore your inner Droplet. If that means singing naked under a tree in the park for the bird you greet every morning — you should do it, Droplet. So what if people laugh? If it makes you feel good, just do it. Those are Droplet Manners.

The only thing a Droplet needs to watch is their Stone Coin (E2). If whatever World Tree whispers does not make you lose money, safety or basic resources, you should be Droplet. (Singing naked in a park is actually illegal, a serious loss of Stone, in many countries because … Crimson fears about children and pornography? Idk i stopped following Crimson logic).

Being a Droplet is hard; I challenge myself everyday to dissolve the fake fears Crimson culture and society place upon us. But I tame the shame, name the blame, etc.

🍁Make your own potions, witch

Nature has given us so much to enjoy. With drugs I do not mean anything synthetic (you can cross out a lot of synthetic drugs, most of them are Crimson bs). Some herbal substances can expand the mind in ways the mind cannot do by itself.

If you look past Crimson fears, you will find many plants contain molecular “messages” for our system. Plants don’t have mouths to talk, they use a much older system to communicate — molecules.

By carefully studying and experimenting with different plants, you can gain new insights through Purple. You can cross the boundaries of your cognitive reality.

Obviously, Purple is dangerous. Do herbal drugs only with prior knowledge, and a safe community around you. Do not use it as an escape. Any substance you abuse blindly (even water) will kill you in the end — keep the Earth Coin (E6) close.

Some plants are really mean — they tell us ‘death’. Do not eat the poisonous ones, obviously. Just putting it here.

How to Listen to World Tree

In the SHC, and in the songs, I often tell to listen to World Tree. What does that mean?

The Rivers of World Tree

World Tree is a big structure, almost as great as Truth Universal itself. It is made of all the Rivers of the Cosmos. The Rivers are the flowing structures of spacetime, moving Stardust.

Okay that was still dense ;) But let’s unpack;

you are a living body with its own River.

your River shows the path of all your Stardust through time and space. Imagine all the particles that came together at your birth. Imagine how they kept growing and moving through places. Some particles leave your main body, while others just arrived.

you are not disconnected from the world around you. You are the world around you.

your River mixes with other Rivers.

planet Earth has a River too. It too was born from Stardust and Earth too has a path to complete within World Tree.

World Tree is thus the megastructure you are directly connected to — it bridges every level. The biggest branches are cosmic in scope, the smallest branches are microscopic.

you are somewhere in between.

How to Listen

Since you are within World Tree, you can listen to it. Everything that happens around you, all the Rivers that are close to you in space and in time, hold intrinsic meaning for your River. The weather you feel, the people you meet, the animals you see, the objects you find,… Everything is in front of you.

Be careful, it is easy to get lost in signs. World Tree shows a lot (like Truth Universal), but you can never fully understand World Tree. It’s just way too big.

So you cannot hold onto everything World Tree tells. It will rarely show you a direct sign spelling “this is the correct path to take”. It only gives fragments, reflections of Truth. You have to follow the Rules of Stardust:

listen to the fragments, don’t dismiss them

analyse the fragments, place them in a structure

store the fragments, this is future-past stuff. World Tree always talks on time, but that is not your personal idea of time.

forget the fragments, don’t hold onto them into folly.

That should be it :)

Applied Exercise

Wanna have a try? Here is an exercise.

>1> Think of your River, your Life path.

>2> Look around you. What do you see, think or feel? Let the thoughts unfold gently. What living things do you see? What are they doing? What objects do you see? where do these come from? What sounds are you hearing?

DO NOT HOLD ON TO THINGS. JUST LET IT GO. NO JUDGEMENT. WORLD TREE DOES NOT JUDGE.

if you feel bad about your Life after this exercise, you did it wrong. try again.

Good luck listening!

Right or Wrong?

Crimson’s Arbitrary Laws

In the Crimson City, they like to think that good and bad exists. It is easier — you point at something and say ‘that is bad’ and we all nod.

There is a very narrow focus on good/bad, but at the same time, the definitions are vague and ephemeral… Alcohol is good, but drunkenness is bad. Sugar is bad, but we all crave it. Getting bad grades in school is bad, but doing the job you like is good. Being attractive is good, unless you say you’re attractive because that is bad. Having a purpose is good, but being too sure of it is bad. Making judgements is good, unless you give critique which is actually bad even if everybody says they think it’s good. Still following? Me neither…

Codex Rules

The Codex is pretty fucking simple. Good and bad are illusions — at least when you are speaking of Good and Bad in general way.

For you, from a personal perspective, certain things can be good and bad. For example, if it helps you survive, you can judge it as good (unless you want euthanasia, then surviving is bad). However, the costs of something good and the boons of something bad are overlooked in personal judgements. Yet, let’s agree that you can make personal temporary judgements in terms of good and bad for yourself.

From a general perspective, the Codex implies all is equally Good-Bad. There are no Bad traits, Death is not Bad, and if you lie and hurt others, World Tree does not give a fuck. (Imagine being an anthropomorphic god having to worry about all the bad things humans do.)

Instead of moral judgements, the Codex gives consequences. If we all start lying and hurting each other, if we all act Evil and Icy for no reason, our world will become highly unstable and we fall apart into anarchy. We did go through that stage several times in history — not the most fun times to be alive. We lived in fear, had little control over our future and our progress froze.

The Codex names Evil only that is which boundlessy dedicated to Chaos, and is incapable of changing itself upon self-reflection. In other words, the only ‘bad’ thing is expressing Chaos with no other purpose than Chaos itself and ignoring your own guilt, because this destroys the pillars of World Tree which are Truth, Love, Peace and Order.

The Third Side of the Coin

Remember that the Coin has three sides? Next time that you feel insecure or bad about yourself, ask yourself this:

Am I gonna die, lose Stone or damage other’s Stone because of this bad thing? -> No? Then probably it is not bad and your worry is not valid.

Why do you think it is bad? Was that because of the whispers and sighs of the Crimson City? -> Maybe the Crimson City is worse than you?

Can you not see the boon hidden in the Bad thing? -> Focus on finding the boon — if you are Timeseer, you must be able to find the boon of the Bad and the cost of the Good.

Find the ridge of the Coin, open the Second Eye, embody the in-between, and may your horizon forever be flat.

Welcome to the World, Timeseer New.

In my Eyes, you are Good.

Ice Trap & Air Current Dynamics

In the Star Heart Codex’s Rules of the Tower, the Earthborn is taught how to defend himself•herself during contact with Others.

The Stone Tower is the most easy to grasp (on the surface). It speaks about solid defenses and is usually what we associate with the word ‘defense’. The Wall of Fire too is easy to grasp. We understand that strength and power can deter.

However, the Ice Trap is a much more unknown defense mechanism. Most people are unaware of their Ice Trap and actually fall into their own… I won’t spell out how it works in detail, because the reward is in discovering it yourself. All I will say is that some stains do not need to be washed; they can have a magnetic power. Do not hide your Trap — show it to the world.

Because there, the Air Current comes into play. Everything the Others enter can be lost. If you know your Air Current, you do not need to defend. Show them what is in the mirror that has looked inside the mirror. They will be stuck in the in-between and undo themselves. You just have to observe and make small movements at the right time. Let them lose themselves without being touched.

Is this fair? No, because some will not be able to understand these dynamics. They want fast answers and stick to building a big Tower and a huge Fire. Those are the ones that easily fall into all kinds of Ice Traps.

Is this fair? Yes, because if you do the work you will come to realise that only the Three-Voiced can hold an Ice Trap without falling into it. If you want to access your hidden powers, you need to align with Truth. A Timeseer can thus — by its definition — not be Evil. The Voiceless who play with Ice Traps, do not know Ice Traps. These Voiceless will burn slowly…

The Magic about Truth

In the Star Heart Codex (SHC), Magic is mentioned. Nowadays, the idea of magic is absurd, ridiculed, or drifts off into fantasy tropes. Most people fear magic and would all too gladly start a witch hunt against what they do not know.

But even as a scientist — in fact, especially as a scientist — I do believe in Magic. Science provides a very unique framework for reality, respectable for its aims, but failing in the everyday world. Science will not help you when you fall in love. Science will not answer why some songs just hit different for you. Science has clear limits and no answer for what lies beyond. Science will not tell you the purpose of your Life. Additionally, science is heavily subject to the philosophy that fuels it. In the current academic world, philosophy is largely ignored (or treated as a last year BSc course for 3 study points).

Philosophy allows you to go beyond science to understand reality. Within the SHC, Magic is merely a placeholder for all the phenomena science cannot sufficiently explain (yet). To improve a system (scientific, philosophical, or otherwise) it absolutely crucial to acknowledge its limits and name that which cannot be named.

The Magic described in the SHC is not what most people think of when talking about “magic”. My Magic does not clash with science. In fact, my Magic is supported by science to its greatest extent (i.e., as far as science can explain stuff beyond what it can explain).

Here is as much as I can describe of the Magic in the SHC with a high degree of certainty without veering into deep fantasy:

Magic is related to Time. Time has inherent qualities (so not how much time, but what type of time).

Magic is also related to consciousness, more specifically how consciousness interacts with the qualities of Time. (Important sidenote: the SHC supports a view where consciousness is universal. All Life is conscious to some degree. Life does not “build” consciousness, Life “traps” consciousness)

Witches, mages, wizards, or Timeseers as used in this blog do exist; they are wielders of Magic. It is possible to wield the unknown intentionally.

As explicitly stated in the SHC, becoming a Timeseer is no easy affair. It demands a degree psychological self-sacrifice. It is an unending path, but there are clear starting points. The SHC is a good beginning.

Supernatural beings do not exist. Nature is seen as universal in the SHC, so you inherently cannot be “more than natural”. If you deviate positively from the norm, you are just an adaptive mutation.

As for the unicorns, vampires, mermaids, aliens and other mysterious beings, these do not fit the current general frame of reality we share. It does not mean they do not exist. It means that their existence has not been shared as a Truth by enough people for it to become a piece of Order Universal. (It would be a shared Truth, if unicorns came running out of the woods and a great enough number of people see them.)

Curses and spells exist too. However, a Timeseer does not need those. He•she understands that a curse binds the other, as much as it binds oneself. If you wish ill upon someone, you experience hate, which has a detrimental effect on you. The only curse that is useful is the Mirror Curse. A Timeseer is not afraid of the Mirror, and should already be bound to it.

Instead Timeseers can rely on their Ice Traps: much more efficient, equally powerful and much less energy-consuming. Let River-Dweller do the Magic work for you! No need to think, just feel. Magic will come effortlessly.

There are certain rituals which can enhance specific aspects of Magic. Some are well known (music) and some are obscure (Ice Traps dynamics). Who knows how many still need to be discovered? I might share some I know in another post.

Perhaps the greatest mystery of Magic is Love. What happens to the texture of Time as two consciousnesses seek to synchronise?

Thanks for reading! Stay tuned for more future-past thoughts from the depths of the Codex ;)

Pseudo-pathological culture

Gods, what an era we live in…

Today I wanted to talk about toxic people ‘healing’ our world. Yes, there are so many of them. I thought I’d challenge them here, because, well, fck them.

*If you believed in one of the narratives below, do not feel foolish, okay? Culture is like that, it almost forces you to participate, and making your own stand is not easy at all. This is not a shaming post, it’s a wake-the-fuck-up post.

• “Everyone brainrots/doomscrolls nowadays. It’s normal.”

No, it really is not true. I rarely do that and when I do it, it’s very intentional and limited. Thinking your brain rots, will make it rot. Do you want a rotten brain? Instead of ‘brain rotting’ go ‘satisfy your curiosity’.

*Tumblr is actually one of the few social media platforms where there is substance beyond the aesthetic.

• “You crossed my boundary so I’m cutting you off.”

First of all, most do not set a clear boundary. It’s more or less “I don’t like this right now, you’re not doing exactly what I want, so I’ll say you crossed my boundary”. Doesn’t work like that. Then, you just are controlling.

Also, most have this forest of boundaries, that often contradict each other, and are not reciprocal — you can’t have a 1000 boundaries while doing the exact same thing that hurt you to others.

Furthermore, some things are just common sense: it’s not because I did not explicitly state “lying is a personal boundary” that you can lie to me and say “but you never said lying was a personal boundary”.

• “No answer is also an answer”

The favourite adage of ghosters. Well let me break it down to you: “No answer is no fucking answer”. It’s a weak stance for cowards that want to justify their own incapacity to communicate clearly.

• “If they wanted to, they would have done so.”

Well, this one should take the prize for ignoring basic human psychology. Sometimes, people have a little bit more going on that what you see on the surface.

• “Ew, they’re love bombing! Cut them off asap!”

If declaring your feelings has become a sickness, what world are we living in? Just respect the other! If you’re not feeling the same thing, just fucking tell them that? It really is not that hard.

• “Ew, they’re trauma dumping! Cut them off asap!”

If people choose to share a vulnerability, be respectful! It’s not because you are incapable of showing your pains, that others are not allowed to be vulnerable!

• “They’re so codependent, it’s unhealthy.”

Stfu. You’re maybe just jealous of their intimate bond? If you think they’re too into each other, just look the other way? Often said by lonely bitter people.

• “Jealousy is a form of control.”

Nope, jealousy is a healthy feeling when you’re in an intimate relationship and there is a real risk of damage or loss. Excessive jealousy exists — but it is often found in the people who deny their own healthy jealousy.

• “Polyamory is a more evolved form of being in relationships.”

Ah, yes, monogamy, the great evil of our times. Except there are many many advantages to monogamy that polyamory could never fulfill. A simple thought experiment: take 2 random points — they will always form a stable line. Take 3 random points — they will always form a triangle, most likely very unstable. It’s already difficult enough to align with 1 person. You need to have some great human insight to be able to hold that same bond with 2 (or more) people.

• “Your partner shouldn’t trigger you.”

That’s an impossible folly: everything in Life will trigger you. Ideally, your partner does trigger you; that’s how you evolve together. However, you need to be aware of the what and the how. If they trigger negative feelings and are incapable of showing self-reflection, instead blaming you — then yes, they are being toxic. If they trigger you, and then you talk about it, and you come out stronger, very normal and actually good for a relationship.

• “If they don’t serve you, cut them off!”

Well aren’t you lonely in your world? Maybe try to talk and use your words before ghosting and cutting off everyone who doesn’t do exactly what you want?

• “Eww they always send such long messages! Do they think I’m gonna read that?”

You probably do read it and then you realise you are not capable of using your words… It is impossible to express deep, true, complex feelings or thoughts in just a single line, baby. That’s why up until 50 years ago, people wrote letters. You know, the long kind of letters with pages of words? You’re just being allergic to reality.

• “I’m not being judgemental, but…”

You are being judgemental. And there is nothing wrong with that, as long as you understand your judgement is just your personal opinion you are allowed to express. Was never gonna be a Universal Truth.

• “Why do you have to be so negative? That’s really mean.”

Well, sometimes Life is not just flowers and Beauty. Some shit is messed up. Saying that stuff, as an opinion, should not be a problem. It becomes a problem when there is no balance and everything is always negative and worse than you. Like this post is negative, but I do offer roads to positivity. And I hope some people will be happy to finally see a counter to all the toxic pseudo-psychology out there ;)

Obviously, sometimes, the above really does apply. However, nowadays these things are just carelessly throw into the discussion without any form of self-reflection. It more likely tells more about you, than about the ones you are talking about.

How to Make Dreams Come True

As a person who likes making the impossible possible, I thought I’d share some tips on how to proceed.

1. Choose a realistic dream

Unlike modern self-help, I will not tell you ‘anything is possible’. It’s a lie. I could dream of becoming an olympic tennis player, but I’ve never played tennis. I could want to be a billionaire with a sports car, but it does not fit my life path at all. Pursuing these would be a giant waste of time, and even if it is possible to try and get them, the costs would be higher than what the dream brings.

Realistic dreams can seem equally ‘impossible’, but they are always rooted in reality. Look at your past, look at your present, and then you’ll stare at your future. For example, I dream of becoming the world’s first soul engineer. This dream might seem crazy to most, but I have spent my youth and young adulthood unconsciously working towards it; the dream revealed itself on that basis. The most realistic dreams are the ones you are already busy realising.

2. Dream for Dust, not for Lust

Our society constantly crushes realistic dreams, while selling impossible ones. How to know if your dream is yours alone or whether it was an image society pushed onto you? Ask yourself if it would bring you deep long-term life fulfillment. If you only do it because you ‘want it’, the dream is unlikely to be realised because it is childish desire (Yes, ofc I want to be a billionaire, but would it really be that satisfying in itself? For me, no. Money would only make me happy if I can use it to fund my real dream.) I think most realistic personal dreams have that ‘noble’ quality; serve a higher purpose and the higher purpose will serve you.

3. Plant seeds, many many seeds

If you have a clear idea of what would be a realistic dream, do not make grand or extreme moves. At least not initially. Plant seeds, take small actions, try out stuff. The more paths you ‘shake’, the clearer it will become which path is actually viable. Some branches will crack, other branches will hold. With each small step in the right direction, you will gain in clarity, and slowly ‘impossible dream’ becomes ‘possible reality’.

4. Accept the small wins and twists of Fate

Do not force your dream on a planning or a human timeline. To align with Fate means submitting to its capricious will. You might never reach the end goal, or you might reach it without realising you are already there. It might take a different form than what you expected. The important thing is that you learn to accept that each step is already an improvement over the past. Leave room for the dream to change — who knows? — it might be even better than what you dreamed.

5. Dream for yourself only — no compromises

It’s already hard enough to realise your own dreams; do not sacrifice yourself for another’s unless both dreams align very well. This is not to say you can’t have common dreams; I argue for a subtle distinction. If two persons’ dreams align, then just keep pursuing your own and the other’s will follow. Instead of fighting for a single unified dream, fight for your own and it will merge with the other’s in time. In Codex terms, you need to be selfish; the Universe will punish self-effacement.

6. Keep dreaming

Once you follow all of the above, it will actually be much easier than you expected. You might quickly find yourself doing stuff you’d have believed impossible months ago. Dreams build upon one another — you’ll never be done. You will reach thresholds where you’ll be like ‘fuck, i actually did it!’ Celebrate those, but don’t stay stuck. Keep going! There is always more in store. This does not mean you should be greedy — sometimes you reach the end of a certain dream branch. Then be content with that, but also look further. Find a new branch.

7. I, Levy, believe in your dreams

Most people have no idea how powerful they are. You are told to stay in a box. People will envy you for choosing to break out. They will envy you when you’re actually doing what they can only dream of. They will hate your success because it reminds them of their failure. Expect those, see them coming, and when they’re in front of you: that is your confirmation to keep going!

I hope this helps you, dreamy followers. I will pray for your dreams to come true. It’s even a bit selfish: I dream of a world where dreams never die. You are part of it :)

Welcome to the World, Timeseer New.

May the Light forever find you.
