Lovely thread. Interestingly, there is another woman with power in her name who's well worth discovering. Frances Power Cobbe.

My first post will be "The Eternal Nothing: Exploring Jacob Boehme's Ungrund" that I should finish later today.

I will likely focus most posts on metaphysics / process thinking

If it sounds interesting to you here is the link to the blog.

For now, I have created a blog for me to stretch my creative wings, but I will not be pushing for people to read it if they care not. It will be used as an outlet and potentially a portfolio, but I would also love discussions to help me improve my understanding of the topics I write on.

In Boehme I can see how the Father's Will can be an unchanging creative principle, which doesn't need to change as-itself, but what is generated from it needs to be dynamic and change in-itself.

For me it makes a lot of sense, though from my understanding of Whiteheadian Process philosophy, there is no transcendent God (This would be the principle of creativity).

Thou must not conceive that in the body of the stars is the triumphing Holy Trinity, God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, in which there is no evil, for it is the light-holy, eternal fountain of joy, which is indivisible and unchangeable...

and all that is above the heavens, is together the body or corporeity of God; and the powers of the stars are the fountain veins in the natural body of God in this world...

"But here thou must elevate thy mind in the spirit, and consider how the whole nature, with all the powers which are in nature, also the wideness, depth and height, also heaven and earth, and all whatsoever is therein...

I recommend this conversation to anyone. @ctr4process.bsky.social and the Cobb Institute have done such great work in promoting process studies. I will continue to find such profound insights from him and his peers. Thanks John, and my best wishes to all his family.

Let there (Father), be (Son), Light (Wisdom). Spirit is the Eternal process in which the Will of the Father flows through the Son to become our universe, in Eternal Generation, through death and rebirth.
