Ethics is the compass of morality, guiding us through the complexities of right and wrong. It emerges from the Analysis aspect in Morality’s moment, a desire for stability and fair application of rules stemming from Prudence, though supported by Honour. This ninth virtue encapsulates the inward products of completion in Propriety and Awareness moments. Ethics…

Understanding the Virtuous Cycle in Symphony The triple helix of Honesty, Analysis, and Perseverance is the symphony that plays through every virtuous act. Each aspect provides a unique rhythm and melody that together form a harmonious whole, allowing the mind to function with clarity. The Awareness moment begins this symphony where Reason’s remembrance starts the…

What is the Meaning of a Prudent Life? Prudence is the wisdom of worthiness and valuation of meaning; the appreciation of values through skill in Propriety’s three virtues. It requires the greater identifications of others and universals, a broadened perspective gained only through life experience to do with the Eros domain of Resurrexit theory. Through…

The Blue Angels rehearsing in a conference room, eyes closed and seated, with bodies swaying as though they were in the air. They are not merely pilots; they are coordinators of a sky machine, choreographers of steel and thunder, and sculptors of their own as yet invisible: future. Observe them gripping phantom control sticks, heads…

Christ’s story is not merely a tale of divinity descending to earth but also a stark reminder of humanity’s peculiar capacity for inaction. The people who truly put him up on that cross were not just the Romans or Pharisees, nor any of the usual suspects. No, no, no! It was also those who claimed…

Here’s to the indignant and stubborn! Dance with the dynamism of virtues and the heavenly domains, to discover how the blazing furnaces of indignation can forge a path from error in Amnesis to virtue in Magnanimity, within the grand framework of Structural Virtues Theory. Picture this: our living consciousness-subconscious-complex as vast kingdoms in which the…

Conservation of Highest Values Conservation fulfils the promises inherent in Temperance and Excellence, marking the completion of Propriety’s moment. The onset of Conservation signals the first wholeness in Reason’s journey. It is the realisation that virtues must be preserved and nurtured, not just acquired. Seven, the quintessence of Life, embodies this virtue, turning division towards…

Ah, what a marvellous afternoon to explore the forest of history and poke fun at some bear… baffling beliefs. The kinds of beliefs that’ll leave us scratching our heads! Today, we’re going to discuss a particular strain of thought that’s as old as the (seven) hills and yet, somehow, persists. I’m talking about the notion…

Why Patience is a Virtue Patience is the remembrance of the identifications of others and who they must be, implying an immediate forgiveness above and beyond mere magnanimity. Through Perseverance’s moment of Awareness, Patience accepts delays due to differences, based in the realisation of how little is controllable. It is not passive resignation but active…

The Frankfurt School, with its critique of ‘capitalism’ and ‘authoritarianism,’ presented itself as a beacon of emancipation. Their agenda was less about freedom and more about subverting European civilisation. Trump’s ban on ‘Critical Theory’ underscores this truth. The ban labels such theories as indoctrination rather than education, a quiet yet full official acknowledgement of the…
