Russian Serpentine’s Origin Story:

Astaphaios spun Russian serpentine’s green coils under Venus’ shadowed veil to trap souls in self-loathing. Its soothing hue was a tool for interventionist tyranny, draining loosh by enforcing mimicry of virtue, shaming sparks into submission.

Norea and Saint Syncletica found the Serpentine Matrix met on their first journey among the People of Earth, and found the people were struggling to smile, or to lift their arms to hug each-other. Those that could, would only squeeze each-other so heavily they broke each others bones. These people couldn’t heal, and they were incapable of feelings of Joy.

Norea and Saint Syncletica made it their mission to find what caused this, and found the Serpentine Matrix with its cursed coils and seductive light. Monad answered to their prayers, and turned those coils of shame into a serene embrace, now inspiring love, peace and joy. The People of Earth could heal and laugh again.

Russian Serpentine soothes the heart chakra’s astral body, where Shame (20/1000) fuels tyranny. It sparks Peace (600/1000), choosing calm over mimicry—an Adlerian shift to good faith. Thriving in serenity, it fosters Love (500/1000). Spark-bearers wield serpentine for Pleroma’s light.

“Peace is impossible to achieve through mimicry, only through truth.”
