Thule, Tula, Polaris

(Greek: Θούλη, Thoúlē; Latin: Thule, Tile) A mystical, ancient, far-northern location described in classical literature that is variously assumed to represent Ireland, Norway, Iceland, Greenland, etc, all of which are mistaken. Virgil used the word Thile in Georgics 1.30 to mean “furthest land” as a symbolic reference to denote a far-off land or an unattainable goal.

ἀρχαῖος

From Ancient Greek ἀρχαῖος (arkhaîos, “original, ancient”). Compare with Arche (/ˈɑːrki/; Ancient Greek: ἀρχή; “beginning”, “origin” or “source of action”) + Chaos (Ancient Greek: χάος, romanized: kháos), the void, the Absolute. In alchemy, archeus refers to the vital principle or force that presides over the growth and continuation of living beings; the anima mundi or malleable power of the alchemists and philosophers.

αρχή

αρχή – Beginning or Origin

Arche is an interesting word. We find a lot of other words that come from it such as Archangel, which is a principle or chief angel, an original angel, an angel that is emanating that Arch. In other words, an Archangel is superior to that of a regular Angel because it has fully or more developed that Arche, that original activity, it is closer to that origin. There is also a word used a lot called Archetype. Archetype means a primordial mold. An archetype is like a blueprint for something that must be developed within our self. We have these potential connections, like I said prior, our soul is connected to our spirit and our spirit is connected to Christ, and Christ is manifested in many different archetypes, many different ways in which the light is formed.
