CYCLE TWENTY: UNDERSTANDING FREEDOM

1. The progression or, rather, regression (for 'progression' would hardly be the correct word for something that has effectively gone backwards) of objectivity from phenomenal to noumenal, civility to barbarity, water to fire, which the historical development from Britain (England) to America would generally appear to signify, is akin to a regression from the personal to the universal, as from what psychologists would probably term the 'collective unconscious' to the 'individual unconscious', bearing in mind the often commercially-conditioned limitations of their choice of terminology.

2. Whether the term 'unconscious' is strictly relevant here, however, is really not the issue, since the important thing is that the female, or objective, side of life has gone backwards from phenomenal id and soul (watery unego and unconscious) with Britain to noumenal id and soul (fiery unego and unconscious) with America, the home of metachemical liberty par excellence.

3. Now one can call this a regression from the personal to the universal (in positive terms, though the negative also has very much to be reckoned with), as from the collective to the individual, since whereas the personal planes are collectivistic in their molecular structuring overall, the noumenal planes are individualistic in what amounts to a more elemental (not necessarily equivalent to elementary) structuring, commensurate with metachemical and/or metaphysical absolutism.

4. Therefore there would be a case for contending that the regression from Britain to America, as from chemistry to metachemistry, was equivalent to the eclipse of the collective unego and unconscious (chemical id and soul) by the individual unego and unconscious (metachemical id and soul), the former personal in its phenomenal relativity, the latter universal in its noumenal absolutism.

5. Thus, in religious terms, the West, including Britain, goes to the Devil/Hell with America, beauty and love replacing strength and pride, as the 'Liberty Belle' takes over the so-called leadership of the West from 'Britannia', who of course 'ruled the waves' where America now contrives - and has long done so - to 'rule space', meaning the cosmos generally.

6. In political terms, one could speak of a regression from the sensual Moderate Right (governed by the parliamentary tongue) to the sensual Extreme Right (ruled by the presidential eye), as the balance of power and glory has shifted from the Houses of Parliament to the White House, the 'Union Jack' to the 'Stars and Stripes', in due course of its regression from water to fire, chemistry to metachemistry, phenomenal objectivity to noumenal objectivity.

7. Thus Britain and America have a lot of power and glory, id and soul, instinct and emotion, in common, as they defend freedom in loyalty to their respective traditions of female objectivity. The 'unconscious' (soul) does indeed count for a lot with them, as of course does the 'unego' (id) which is its selfish precondition, and one would have to say that both the ego and the mind of male subjectivity would be less than congenial to or typical of each of these countries, with their emphases, stemming from a Protestant tradition, on freedom at the expense of binding, which is to say, on free will at the expense of natural determinism.

8. But if the ego and the mind are rational and reasonable in their respective subjective orientations, then one would have to contend that both the id and the soul of unegocentric and unconscious dispositions were less than rational or reasonable - indeed, that they were fundamentally irrational and unreasonable, since not founded in intellectuality or spirituality but in instinctuality and emotionality, as applicable to the female side of life, with its aggressive objectivity rooted in or, more correctly, stemming from a vacuous precondition.

9. Hence whereas the ego and the mind would correlate, in their intellectual rationality and spiritual reasonableness, with sanity, whether in phenomenal terms for physics or in noumenal terms for metaphysics, the id and the soul, by contrast, would appear to correlate, in their instinctual irrationality and emotional unreasonableness, with insanity, the objective antithesis to sanity.

10. There is therefore a sense in which both chemistry and metachemistry, being irrational and/or unreasonable, are founded on insanity, or madness, in contrast to the subjective prevalence of sanity for physics and metaphysics, their male counterparts.

11. Thus it becomes evident that if the male side of life, being subjective, is sane and the female side insane, or mad, in its objectivity, then both Britain and America are effectively mad countries in their adherence to and professed espousal of the female values of chemical and/or metachemical freedom, through free will, at the expense of the male values of physical and/or metaphysical binding, through natural determinism.

12. Hence the defence of freedom (against real or perceived threats from without) is not only morally unsustainable, given the immoral (un)nature of objectivity, whether in relation to chemical or to metachemical contexts; it is positively insane, since the only rational basis for defending anything is binding, the binding to subjective values that accords with both the ego and the mind on the male side of life, where not the (genuine) Kingdom and/or State but the (genuine) Church and/or Centre (as taught by me in relation to 'Kingdom Come') are the principal institutional manifestations of morality, in loyalty to a subjective bias.

13. Consequently, only that society which defends, even unto the use of arms, binding from objective threats upon its subjective integrity is moral, and therefore sane. For only in that kind of male-biased society will the ego and the mind be paramount, whether in phenomenal or in noumenal terms, and natural determinism accordingly take considerable precedence over free will.
