We are officially entering Q2.
With the Spring Equinox and eclipse season behind us, the flowers are beginning to bloom, the Sun is starting to feel warm, and perhaps we're finally seeing the light at the end of winter’s tunnel.
Since the dawn of time, the patterns of nature have offered humanity both inspiration and intelligence.
Our understanding of the shifting seasons enabled the agricultural revolution to take form.
Our understanding of narrative arcs empowered storytellers like George Lucas to craft marvelous films.
Our understanding of supply and demand allowed financial markets to thrive.
Patterns are everywhere—there is no escaping them.
There is a reason why symmetry feels beautiful...
Because we are creatures of pattern.
Last month, Abeer and I had the incredible opportunity to see Tony Robbins live. Beyond his electrifying presence and magnetic confidence, what struck us most was a deep, almost visceral synchronicity—especially when he spoke about the power of pattern recognition.
"You need these 3 skills if you want to succeed for the rest of your life. First, you have to be able to recognize patterns. It won't matter what the jobs are. It won't matter what the business is. If you can recognize patterns, you have an edge. Things look like chaos until you recognize there's a pattern to things"
Abeer and I looked at each other.
"Wow."
This is exactly what Numinous Realm is doing.
We exist to help you recognize patterns.
But hey, don't take it from us.
Let's see what else Tony has to say.
"If you can recognize patterns you can change your life. Because once you recognize patterns, you get the second skill. You learn to use patterns. Getting yourself to do the things you don't want to do. It's called discipline. But discipline is a heavy word. What it really is, is just creating a new pattern. Once it's a habit, it doesn't take discipline. It's easy. If you understand patterns, and recognize them, and you can use them, you have real power."
Okay, this is getting interesting!
If you've been with us for awhile, then you know that we share with you, the deep, unconscious, archetypal patterns governing our world.
From fashion to politics, we cover it all.
But what is an archetype?
The word comes from the Greek root arkhe — meaning first principle, the origin.
And what use is a principle if it cannot be used?
This is important: the articles we produce at Numinous Realm are not merely the sharing of information, but tools for transformation.
How so?
Let's hear from Tony again.
"The third skill is to be able to create patterns. You want to recognize them, use them, and create them. The most successful entertainers, the most successful business people, the most successful musicians, they create new patterns. They build on what they learn from others. They create things because they know what those patterns are.
Essentially, at Numinous Realm, we're helping you develop your archetypal eye.
When you recognize that planetary alignments are correlated with human psychology, you will be able to use this knowledge to:
1) understand your own unconscious patterns
2) understand human history and evolution
And finally, you'll be able to create with these archetypal forces, a life beyond imagination.
As Tony says: "losers react, winners anticipate."
And here are just a few articles we've shared in anticipation:
In February, we anticipated that Anora would win Best Picture. It did.
Last year we anticipated that themes around conspiracy theories would begin to emerge through 2027. The recent release of the JFK files is just the beginning.
Last year we anticipated that the anti-alcohol movement would deepen. This year the US Surgeon General warned of alcohol causing cancer.
Last year we anticipated that the 90s aesthetic would return for the rest of this decade (here, here, here, and here). The recent Ghibli-inspired OpenAI image generation trend is just the beginning.
Last year we anticipated that the theme of spirituality—particularly religion and a return to God—would grow louder. I can personally say it has for me, and for many around me. What about you?
In 2023, we anticipated that Bitcoin would make it's next quantum leap in 2024. It did.
In 2023, we anticipated that major technological feats would be achieved in 2024. For one, SpaceX successfully caught its giant Starship booster with "chopsticks."
These are just some examples.
If you can anticipate the trends, you can create the trends.
And that means...you have an edge.
Whether you're an entrepreneur, content creator, engineer, musician, novelist, mother, or student, there’s no limit to how archetypal cosmology can support and inspire you.
So if you're interested in gaining this edge—the top 1% edge that is archetypal cosmology—then you're in the right place.
Stay tuned—we’re cooking up something special.
Something designed to help you personally recognize, use, and create the patterns to move mountains.
