POMEGRANATE"
spreads seeds of Gold
2022
The new ATARAXIA album is a poetic race through the essence
of the elements constantly inspired by the elemental spirits
of nature to reach the athanor and embody the coniunctio oppositorum
or alchemical marriage.
The white fire of heaven has brought us to fusion with Hlara
Aralh, bearer of the courage of the heart. The unfolding of
the notes infuses us with a comprehensive and pervading sense
of freedom and lightness. The tongues of crystal flame that
purify without burning envelop us and lead us to the purest,
most instinctive and vivifying feeling. A question resounds:
"Do you still dream your dream?" while the salamanders,
live embers, lead us in the presence of Helios, the Sun, and
we are asked: "Do you still feel the source?"
The alchemical journey of the hero, the journey of all of
us, goes on and enters the earth element represented by the
depths of the forest and the cosmic dance of the deer.
Oruphal, root feet, phoenix wings, leads us into the underworld
in the presence of our shadow that it is necessary to look
at, welcome and integrate in order not to be servants inside
and outside. As bleeding and exhausted beasts, we find ourselves
hanging in the balance between a mystical portal and a precipice.
Around us sulphureous depths, mountains and secret beaches.
Then the wind breaks in and transforms us into moon quartz.
Artemis, dryads and hamadryads, accompany us in the passage
in order to be able to create and realize in the plane of
matter.
A new alchemical movement accompanies us from nigredo to albedo
where Ozoonhas, an elemental spirit that crosses us like air
for a passage up, welcomes us.
Are we antennas? Each time we reach the highest point to make
us channels of frequency, we rise in a spiral around the caduceus
of Hermes-Mercury to reset our DNA and move among the stars.
Upward, in the long summer nights, we contemplate the stars.
The sylphs, elemental spirits of the air, inspire us by blowing
subtle intelligence into us.
From height to uterine abysses, between spirit and matter,
enveloped by the liquid currents of Nevenhir, elemental spirit
of water, nereid and siren.
In the sea depths we sow gifts and make sonic plants grow,
we appear and disappear with very light wings embroidering
dreams. As star cells, we stay expanded and suspended taking
magical forms and smiling inside.
Purified and new, we now have access to the reign of Aphrodite,
Goddess of Love, Grace and Beauty that welcomes us in a triumph
of flowery meadows, perfumes, colors, sensual whispers, essences,
auroral choirs and enchanting arias. In Myrtea, let's raise
the song!
The counterpoint of the Goddess is Dionysus, God of mystical
ecstasy and folly.
Through entropy and chaos a new order of adamantine purity
is ringed even if to reach it we have to cross the cave-skin
of the God, his archaic and anthropomorphic face, his laser
eyes, until we are magnetized into his mineral, animal, human
and divine world. So, we are in the presence of "otherness"
in a twilight atmosphere. The God of Mountains and Caves,
the multiform God of catharsis, leads us galloping to a solar
oracle that allows us to access the last phase of the journey
thats Rubedo.
We are in the higher mental field, Aura Magi.
In this space, the ether paints sidereal distances, gives
us the power of vision, the ability to communicate with everything
and with the divine forces of the inter-worlds. It is an initiatory
passage of renewal and intense peace, a mystical caress. We
contemplate the mysteries, forms that manifest, and we are
subtle fire wrapped in mortal flesh.
The sonic journey ends with an outro that catapults us back
into the matter of the origins as renewed creatures.
We are on an island in a primeval state, the singing of the
hummingbirds, the bells, the wind and the words of power of
the priestesses envelop us.
The CD and A5 editions of the album contain a bonus track,
Amethyst, a purple healing stone, in which, calm and contemplative,
we thank for the gifts received after two years of very hard
trials (2020-2022). Courage, beauty, intelligence, love, desire
for achievement have ensured that "Pomegranate",
thanks to the precious support of The Circle Music, could
take shape and flourish.
The gold vinyl edition is accompanied by an artbook of sublime
paintings by "Insetti Xilografi" and poetic writings
by Francesca Nicoli, a passionate embrace of natural elements,
mythological and floral figures, magical and sensual words
and worlds. All of this achieved thanks to the artistic skill
of Nicolas Ramain, a highly talented graphic designer.

Loving Great Gods
so much
leads us to receive Golden Gifts
ATARAXIA
Alfieri della Bellezza
Nevenhir, do you remember the dip in the salvific cold?
And the ascension to the liquid sheets as born again demigods?
Recovering purity and intact nature
Oruphal, free and wild,
we crossed the bright foliage in a poetic race.
Do you remember the cosmic dance of the deer? And the mysterious
faces?
Ozoonhas, do you still feel the air on your face?
And the glow of golden time?
We were ascending to the highest point, we are antennas
Hlara Aralh, do you still feel the live embers?
And the dancing tongues of flame?
Instinctual, natural, cup and scepter,
Do you still dream in your dream?
Aura Magis Rara Avis
I shift among the stars
between spirit and matter
solid music
light from within
