FRACTAL TIME SCIENCE
A fractal is like an infinite matryoshka doll.
Nature manifests in fractals.
What is the Law of Time?
The Law of Time is a body of mathematical and spiritual knowledge which became known to humankind in the end of the 20th century.
The Law of Time was discovered in 1989, much in the same manner as other areas of knowledge were discovered and developed. To better understand the nature of the Law of Time, think about some other bodies of knowledge and the time when humans began to learn about each one:
• Calculus came to exist in the 17th century.
• Our awareness and study of galaxies began in the 18th century.
• Electromagnetism and the Periodic Table were developed in the 19th century.
These examples of other bodies of knowledge should help us to understand the nature of the Law of Time.
Like calculus, the Law of Time deals with pre-existing mathematical realities. Like the Periodic Table, the Law of Time organizes pre-existing realities into structures and terms which are both new and human.
This point is key to understanding the Law of Time, because like the elements in the Periodic Table, the Law of Time is not based upon, or limited to, the Earth. That said, in the case of both the Periodic Table and the Law of Time, visual and cognitive structures appropriate for Earthlings have been developed through the advanced study and documentation of individuals devoted to these subjects.
What are fractals?
What are fractals in Time?
Fractals are geometric figures in which patterns recur infinitely at multiple scales.
In nature, we see fractals constantly. Fractals define the basic ‘programming’ of snowflakes, pinecones, leaves, lightning, crystals, canyons, and countless other naturally occurring phenomena, including large-scale processes such as coastal erosion and galaxy formation.
Fractals in Time are geometric structures which connect and correlate different points and processes on multiple scales of Time.
At the atomic level, crystalline solids have a specific geometric structure: cubic, hexagonal, tetragonal, monoclinic, triclinic, or orthorhombic.
At the molecular level, geometries define the different types of possible bonds: linear, planar, pyramidal, tetrahedral, octahedral, and variations thereof.
At the level of material reality which we perceive through our senses, geometries manifest in a wide array of fractal phenomena, from snail shells to hurricanes.
And as in Space, so also in Time are geometries what define and unify multiple layers of reality — in the case of Time, various points and periods, or cycles.
A fractal in Time is a geometric shape which reflects and connects multiple scales of Time simultaneously.
Why does this matter?
Humanity’s sciences have shown that a consistent mathematical structure underlies the physical universe and defines the way in which matter, sound, and light behave in Space. Physics has also proven the inseparable nature of Space and Time.
So if we see in Space countless demonstrations of mathematical order underlying the physical universe, why wouldn’t we expect to see similar organization in the structure of Time?
“Just as air is the atmosphere of the body, so time is the atmosphere of the mind.”
Time and the Technosphere (2002)
When it comes to Time on Earth, the human race has adopted two primary tools for measuring and describing: the clock and the calendar. With these tools, we divide our days and years into smaller parts in an effort to be more organized and synchronized, individually and collectively.
At first glance, these means are impressive and effective. The calendar measures the solar year with great accuracy, and the most advanced clocks divide even seconds into millions of parts. There is no question that these devices bring a certain degree of math into our perception and description of Time.
However, the mathematics of our clock and calendar do not reflect or relate to the types of mathematics which we see in Nature.
The Gregorian calendar, specifically, is a primitive vestige of the religious and political systems of ancient Rome. Looking for mathematical stability in the 12 Catholic months, we find almost none. Though the solar year is measured with great accuracy, no specific attention is given to the Moon or any other celestial body or natural cycle.
The 7-day week and 365-day year are all we have to hold on to; no smaller or larger rhythms or patterns exist within the Catholic wheel of Time. The Gregorian calendar subtly perpetuates a worldview of Time as irregular, arbitrary, and vaguely religious — absolutely contrary to our scientific worldview of Space as mathematically consistent, intricate, and objective.
By continuing to accept the Gregorian calendar as our only method of perceiving and describing Time — individually and collectively — humans remain psychologically trapped in uneven, disharmonious cycles. Moreover, by relying upon the Catholic calendar to describe our collective experience of Time, we unconsciously reinforce concepts related to the ancient gods and dictators whose names appear in the calendar’s months and days. And because we are taught as children to accept irregularity and Catholicism in our experience of Time, the profound psychological impact of doing so is nearly impossible for an adult to imagine or recognize.
One of the most difficult tasks for a human being is to objectively examine the beliefs and operating systems which were installed in one's youth.
“These irregularities … and irregular order of days per month
have long term effects on the consciousness once they are accepted as normal…
The society becomes unconsciously locked into self-defeating patterns
of irresolvable irregularity and irrationality.”
Cosmic History Chronicles Vol. IV (2008)
Every calendar is a human tool for the comprehension and organization of Time within the mind. And Time is something which we each experience individually and directly, within ourselves. Accordingly, the evolutionary shift to a non-religious, mathematically advanced calendar cannot be imposed upon humanity from the top down. To provide the mind with a rational alternative to the primitive Catholic calendar is strictly a personal choice. Human individuals who recognize the importance and power of perceiving Time as a fractal web of steady cycles will joyfully learn to do so, while others will remain content with the Roman Catholic matrix which is already installed in their minds.
For those who wish to develop order and depth in their perception and experience of Time — and to cultivate fractal modes of thought which transcend the patriarchal, religious, and imperial memes inherent in the Gregorian system — the 13-Moon calendar appears on Earth in this moment as a vital tool of mental and cultural liberation and transition. As humanity becomes increasingly intelligent and globalized, it becomes impossible to justify, scientifically or culturally, our continuing reverence for the Gregorian calendar. We do not live physically in a Roman Catholic empire, but we have yet to liberate ourselves mentally from the Roman Catholic matrix.
