Nothing comes from nothing. Everything comes from something or other, as energy can be neither created nor destroyed. Nothing, does not exist. This is a relatively novel concept, it is neither as tangible as one, nor as concrete as two. The idea of Zero was not an intuitive concept. For the longest time, humanity began counting with one, as, if there was less than one, there would be nothing to count. We imagine Space as a vacuum. This is not technically correct, but in concordance with Einsteinian relativity, everything in space is relative to every other thing. Amusingly, this applies to the void nearly as well as anything else. On earth, there is a bubble which encompasses the entirety of the planetary mass with a variety of mediums and frequencies of energy. The Magnetosphere and Atmosphere are so densely filled with material that our Æther is clearly visible from outer space. The impact of photons and falling electromagnetic snow on our earths surface is laced and laden with color in the auroras at our poles. The Air above us is so clear that we can see for miles and miles, yet it captures enough light to reflect the aquatic surface in a spectrum, and that blue permeates the sky, until a shifting angle of the sun casts pristine peaches, purples, and orange hues across clouds of frozen water, levitating on heavier masses and currents of ever flowing, yet completely invisible wind. This flying gas is so dense and heavy by comparison, that at speed, it can rip trees from the ground by the roots and tear the roofs off steel buildings. That Air pressure can crush steel tanks when they are emptied of gasses and filled with vacuum. The same emptiness of space. That selfsame nothing, fills the gaps between stars and planets alike, but that same nothing, ceases to exist when even a beam of light permeates the space between molecules, and the infinite entropy inside subatomic structures creates a permeable substance. It is not matter, it is space. Gaps filing atoms where only waves can exist, the fields of electrons where the negative charge meets the positive and slams itself to annihilation, creating what we call matter. Some suppose that this fabric is composed of "Time". I disagree, but we'll come back to that.

Good Morning, Evening, or Either, as it is, in fact, both at the same time, or any time, here on Earth. Welcome to our Ætheral Community and Cheers for going back to Skool. Where the Education never ends. As Learning and Thinking entities, it is beholden to us, that there be no ceiling to that which can be known. However, given some few and certain caveats, we can broach the threshold of what can be understood. Firstly, We must address what we do not know, we don't know. Thusly, we must only presume that we may not know what we do know, and can certainly improve in both subjects categorically. As with all Scientific Endeavors, this course will almost invariably leave one with more questions, than answers. Not to be crude... but if these lectures do perplex you with vocabulary you are unfamiliar to, it is recommended by the professors that a dictionary be available in your locale of edification. If English is not your first or primsry languange of fluency, there may be information lost in translation. This can prevent retention, and cause confusion in the deeper levels of our dive into the essence of the following lectures. These lectures are by no means a conclusive description of all that humanity offers by way of Metaphysical Understanding or Philosophical comprehension. That is to say, even this Professor is a Student... likewise, any good teacher learns from his or her students. The singular intent of these lessons and lectures is to broaden the human scope of metaphysicsl potential, and learning. Such lectures will include, Magic, Magick, Mæjik, and What It Is: (Fundamental Concepts) Metaphysics and the Quantum Of Energy: (Core Definitions, Laws, and Rules.) The Medium and/or Immaterial Being: (Souls, Spirits, Ghosts, Gods, and Ones Self.) The Man, The Myth, & The Legend: (Historicity, Esoteric Lore, and Records Known.) The Grimoire: (Archaic Books & Your Grimoire, how to, and why..) As Above, So Below: (The Universal and Subatomic Studies)
