The Earth as nous.

Stillness at the center of the world.

In Proclus, Earth is not passive matter, but a Providence, orchestrating the peace of the cosmos.

Aula ótima essa do Antonio
🔔 Save the date: Sunday 10:15 (Brasília time)

I’ll be teaching a live YouTube class on the natal chart of Proclus — philosopher, astrologer, metaphysician.
We’ll look at his chart, his daimon, and what the stars say about a philosophical life.

In my latest video, I unpack Proclus’ idea of the Intelligible Earth. It is not something we understand with the mind, but the ground for intelligibility itself, known in a primordial affect.

Continuando o argumento de "Sexo e Virtude", argumento que o sexo não é só um bem subjetivo, para o conhecedor, mas um bem inter subjetivo, comunitário, e objetivo, que se materializa nas noções de beleza e matrimônio.

From the city to the nation, from civilization to religion:
a Platonic–Neoplatonic map of political life beyond scale, identity, and conquest.

Da cidade à nação, da civilização à religião:

What is the Earth for Proclus?

In this first video of a new series,I introduce his polytheistic metaphysics and explain how a single agent can exist in multiple "phases" —using Proclus’ own account of the human being and it's three bodies as an example.

In this class, we discuss Simmias' and Cebes' objections to the philosophical will to die, based on Socrates' exoteric argument against suicide: if we can't kill ourselves because the Gods are our masters, why would we want to depart from such great owners?

Se o sexo é a realização das nossas capacidades cognitivas faz mais sentido ter um ou uma variedade de parceiros? E mesmo se uma opção tem mais sentido, a outra ainda tem valor? Nesse vídeo investigo a questão da promiscuidade sob a ótica do sexo como conhecimento carnal.
