But there does not seem to be any reason to believe in such a unified whole, especially in such a fractured reality. The only “unified whole” our ancestors recognized was primordial chaos, which despite the paradoxical nature of anti-cosmic “Satanism,” was not something good or honored. Indeed were this unified whole to become a unified whole once again, none of us would exist anymore, making it at odds with Western LHP metaphysics. What is interesting is you appear to go on and promote a reality made from many different substances.
See I reject this kind of deterministic view of reality where that which is external wholly defines the internal, especially to the point where we can predict that internal from the external. Despite the popularity of many new age beliefs, the ancients also were not using the stars to protect the future, but rather to perform what Plato called anamnesis. They were not looking to the future but the past.
Sure, but this is like saying Christianity does not honor the sun since they would not recognize themselves as a sun cult. It’s more about tracing the history of these ideas. You yourself admit to this solar mindset of the external defining the internal, that comes from the solar/agricultural traditions of Egypt as opposed to the stellar ones whether you personal honor the sun above all else or not. It is always important to seek the source of the ideas one is exposed to.
Sure, it isn’t always the case that fame is asked for. It is harder to argue that though when we have a being dehumanizing the species, arguing for mass conversion, leading inquisitions and genocides, etc. so that it can be the center of attention.
Perhaps, I am not much caught up on popular occultism of this day, and I am not sure if it is a good source of information. For instance per popular occultism of the late 1800s/early 1900s the Osiris myth was the one truth of Egypt like Christianity in the dark ages, there has been little crossover between occultism and academia until much more recently. That said the reason those like me seem to associate Christianity with the sun is specifically because it differs from the religions of the past. No better is this illustrated than the religion of Atenism and the reaction to it.
But one’s nature hardly matters at all if it is not their nature, but an assigned one.
On one hand I am not sure we can use mysticism of the demiurge in order to free these ideas from Gnosticism. Of course a tool of the Sun will teach us the Sun is good and deserving of worship etc. On the other hand, emanationism is a unified whole where all differences are only illusions due to the works of God or the limits of Man.
