Crystalline
Creation
Dylan Moss
Long
ago, no-one knows when or how, something occurred. No-one knows what caused
this something, or all of what this something resulted in, but we humans are
aware of at least one effect of the something. It caused the birth of the
Gods. Many stories of how many of the Gods and Goddesses where born exist, but
I can tell only one of them as my own gifted story. Those born this way have
no names that are knowable to us as humans, but they are known by their
actions and by their many followers who have been on the earth, and still walk
it with us, loving each other in many ways.
At
the time of the event. a singing was heard, a beautiful and unearthly sound,
on that no human knows to us could make. There were no words to this singing
in any language of humans, for the language was one of the Gods. The language
used was once understood and spoken by many humans, but today there are few of
those gifted in languages left to us in these days. This sound was beautiful
and terrible, sweet and sad. It spoke of wonderful triumphs to come, as well
as downfalls and sadnesses that would break any heart.
Out
of the music came light, and the light was in many colours. It began as black,
a light that could not be seen, but was still imperceptibly there. It moved
then throughout all the types of light known to us today. From the long radio
waves to the shortest cosmic and gamma rays, and all those lights both visible
and invisible in-between.
After
the light, the crystals came into being. They followed the same pattern as the
lights, and are only one step removed from them. Because of this, they are
very close to Creation and have many uses, some of which are known to us. The
black crystals came first, followed by red, orange, yellow, green, blue,
indigo, violet and white crystals. In black and white crystals, all of the
others and all of the others uses are present. This is why only those two
types are necessary for people to use.
After
the crystals came the stars, which are crystals made light. They gave the
light which was given to them to the places around them. They were also given
the ability to warm the space which lay about them, making it possible for
that which was to come later to survive. They shine like candles in the
darkness, and the darkness in the universe has never put them out.
The
singing continued, and small, white areas of light began to form throughout
space and time, which had been made first. These lights, no-one knows how they
came about, only that they were there, and had not been before, and are not
there any more. These lights began to grown, and took on forms which were
pleasing to them. Some became human male or human female in form, and others
took on the forms of animals, or mixtures of human and animal. Some took on
forms of which we are not aware. So the Gods were made, subservient to the
will of the universe and of the one who sang them into being. Although they
were subservient, they have more power, will and freedom as well as far more
knowledge then we will ever have. Some of them formed groups, and some the
names of these groups are still known to us. Some name are: the Tuatha de
danaan, the Ancestors, the [Santerian gods] and so on.
Many
of the Myriad found others of the myriad beautiful, and in particular two of
the myriad of created Gods found each other beautiful. These two were both
male in form, but it was so that that they found each other beautiful, and
this was good in the unseen eyes of the singer, and these two decided that
they would seek out others, both human and Godlike and befriend them.
In
a short time, they found those they had been seeking, both female and male in
form, both Godlike and human. They decided that it was good to be together,
for they understood each other, while many others, both human and Godlike did
not understand their choice to find those physically like them
attractive. Many also joined them who found both physical appearances
beautiful, as well as those who like the appearance of the opposite gender,
but respected the choices of others.
And
so the Gods and infant humanity laboured, with quarrels and gentleness,
jealousy and love. Some work still today, while others have gone away and
still others have passed over into higher places and better lives. We continue
to labour and live and learn, as do the Gods.
