Greetings everyone,
Pretty soon there will be sent the PDF Issue 6 and 7, combined, for all our esteemed Donors. This means this will be a double PDF for 2024, 2 in 1. Thank you all for your active care for the house of the Gods.
The reason why there will be a double issue is because of delays which have resulted from an over-bearing amount of work for me in the last month. Therefore this new edition will be enriched.
Below is a short but powerful reminder article for the importance of the month January. Many are looking for clues about the importance of the Gods, yet these are everywhere, their messages inscribed everywhere. We just have to bring them outwards and let them shine upon us all.

The mystery of Janus since the time of Ancient Rome was one of the most important celebrations of Rome. As time elapsed, the knowledge of the Great God started being buried beneath the rubble as the people stopped remembering him, despite of his name being the name of the month IAN-UARY or January, the first month of the year of the Calendar.
The first three letters of Janus’s Name, the IAN, contain two important elements from Ancient Greek. I, which is the letter Η, signifying the word “or” and the “AN” which signifies the word “if”.
Inside this code, we can see the two important questions we have before we embark in every choice in life. The “Or” element this or that choice, and the word “If”. Will we succeed? Will we be able to manage things? Or it will be better to stay where we are? If this is done, then what? What “If”?
In this date, an important symbolism was present: Now, what was before, is no longer. However, the symbol of Janus was to be utilised for this; the passage and the pathway, the door to other and bigger or smaller things. The student had to move forward in life, and there was a door in front of him in the Ritual of the year yet, it was the student that had to choose to pass through the door willingly.
In Zevism we have many doors and many passages that we must take in order to advance. Our personal choice is reliant to this subject. How much ready for change and uplifting we are and our readiness to cross each door, will determine our success in the elevating passages of power, consciousness, wealth, or all other fields of success. This procedure is absolutely necessary, as one cannot see before their choice to open a door what lies behind it.
Similarly, Janus rules over rites such as the Dedication of the Soul. We can read about what is behind the door we are about to embark, we can make estimations, and we can certainly ask a Master that has went through or we can visualize what might be the reality after the door. Yet, unless we walk, we can never know.
HPS Pythia has written very graphically about the Truth of Zevism. There is a door behind you that slams closed when you enter it, a new world that opens up after this, one cannot go back. If we pay attention to this statement, the closing of the door behind us, is symbolic of the ability to choose. While certain choices can be taken back, others cannot; not because we cannot cancel them, but because what one will see, can never be unseen.
Nowadays our civilisation does no longer celebrate Janus as the Ancient Romans did, or people before them. Nowadays we also lack the highest amount of understanding in regards to our choices, their benefits or responsibilities they carry. Most people don’t even know where the door is. We do; therefore, let us feel blessed always that we know of the existence of the door to Spiritual Freedom.
May Janus’s month and Name be glorified, and may we all embark in our best doors for this year.
