Over years of research, I discovered that a large piece of the historical puzzle is missing from the orthodox history of these revolutions. During my research, I periodically stumbled over references to the occult and to the Western Esoteric tradition. The strange and wonderful ideas in this tradition were elusive. I came from a very pragmatic background: an education in physics, and years of work as an engineer. Hence, it took several years of study and rumination on mythology for my thinking to shift from a merely analytical approach to a more comprehensive method of investigating the place of mankind in the universe.
There's a subtle structure to the Greek myths, the Roman myths, the Norse myths, and Egyptian mythology. These mythological ideas are, from my point of view, like a decoder ring for trying to understand the world in poetical and mystical terms. This type of understanding is a way of escaping the limitations of reason and logic.
I am just beginning to explore these ideas through fiction. I'm attempting to write stories that are entertaining and engaging, but still taps into this wellspring of knowledge.view less
