Enantiodromia and The Tree Of Wyrd
°°°°°°°
Reproduced here is a chapter from Myatt’s The Numinous Way Of Pathei-Mathos [1] whose title is self-explanatory: Enantiodromia and The Reformation of The Individual. It is relevant to both the Longusian Seven Fold Way [2] and our Hebdomian Way [3] because both are an enantiodromia, a discovery of one’s wyrd and thus a changing, an evolution, of the individual. In both the Longusian esoteric tradition and the Hebdomian Way the term wyrd is cognate with the Saxon werthan, from the Old Frisian wertha which became the Old English wythan/wuthan, and the Icelandic verða. The meaning is ‘to become’, to develop; or in the esoteric sense ‘to evolve’. Hence why the septenary system, as illustrated above, is termed the Tree Of Wyrd. Thus the esoteric (Batin) meaning and usage of the term wyrd is ‘to evolve’, to change, as opposed to the exoteric (Zahir) usage or meaning of ‘to be destined’, Fate, and so on.

[2] As a stalwart of the Longusian tradition recently wrote: “The whole hermetic and practical Seven Fold Way, as first publicly described in 1989 in Naos, and which takes a decade, usually two decades, to complete is an enantiodromia; that is, a discovery of The Unity, of The One, of The Monas; a re-balancing of what the Poemandres tractate of the ancient Corpus Hermeticum described as having been separated into portions.” https://sevenoxonians.files.wordpress.com/2024/02/esotericism-ethics.pdf
