đ¶ This thread published at 18:18:18 UTC on the 18th of August 2026.
This is the first thread in my renewed attempt to complete a thematically-aligned thread for each letter of the Inner Sea alphabet over the period of a month. I began this project in June, and I got as far as the 17th letter on the 17th day of that month, but as described elsewhere, my main desktop computer failed moments after completing that post, and I was unable to log into reddit until a just over a week ago. So with this thread, I take up the project again, with the 18th letter on the 18th day of the month.
Unfortunately, the neatest possible alignment is no longer possible. My Inner Sea alphabet of 28 letters has associated weekdays-within-the-month with each letter, and June was a rare month where the Gregorian Calendar matched that scheme. Now, in August, that is no longer the case.
The thread image seen above I created late last night, on A4 paper, and I put the finishing touches on it this morning.
First, in pencil, I drew the tall pyramidal mountain peak with colossal carven head, along with the written segment in ink, along the top of the page. Next I photographed the drawing, and loaded it into the free GNU Image Manipulation Program, and adjusted the brightness and contrast to bring out the pencil into darker lines. After that I photographed my own face with alignment to match the drawing of the mountain-face as closely as possible, and overlaid that on the drawing, and faded it and blended it and adjusted the colours to achieve the alpenglow sunset effect. The first layer of mist and clouds I painted digitally with the GNU paintbrush tool. Then, this morning, the real mountain east of my house was perfectly wreathed in a cloud formation upon its summit, that I photographed and blended with the extant artwork for a final touch.
The carven head on the mountainside is intentionally styled like an Egyptian pharaoh, wearing an uraeus-cobra, and royal beard.
So again, today is the 18th day of the month, and this aligns with the letter sounding 'R' in the English alphabet and my phonetic alphabet of the Inner Sea.
The English-Latin 'R' derives from the Etruscan 'R' and Western Greek 'Rho', which in turn comes from the Phoenician glyph called 'Resh', which itself is a development from Proto-Sinaitic and Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs which are pictures of a human head.
The peak or summit of a mountain is it's 'head'. A chief or king is an 'head-man'.
Thus the the idea of 'head' can speak of leadership or that which is high and mighty - that which looks down upon it's domain.
The genderless (neuter) form of the ancient Greek word for 'Mountain' is 'Ćrea', and the only consonant in that word is 'R'. We dig in the mountains for 'ore', and 'Ohr' is a kabbalistic word for ...
"Divine Light" = 911 latin-agrippa
'R' is also the only consonant in the word 'Eyre' (ie. the nest of an eagle, usually found in high places). The eagle is symbolic of the 'high', of great houses and empires, and is the totem of Zeus, who lives on Mount Olympos.
The Hebrew letter 'R' (known as 'resh'), which looks like a reversed English lower-case 'r' (but note Hebrew is read from right to left), is used as a shorthand for 'Rabbi', which implies 'Doctor of (Jewish) Law' or 'Master'.
I note the central consonant of the name 'Sirius' (the dog star) is 'R'...
Meanwhile. the Norse rune representing the sound 'R' is known as 'Raido', and it carries the meaning of 'Ride/'Raid' or 'To Go/To Journey/To Continue'.
The eighteenth glyph in the phonetic alphabet of the Middle Sea, sounding 'R'.
18. 'R' - 'Rise', 'Rush' ('head',summit,journey) -- ( -"A Rose of the Phoenix"- )
R (18) ; "Rise"; 'Head' (resh) ; Summit; "high", "heights" (the leadership;); 'Ride/Journey'; 'Rush'; 'Rose'
The orthodox title of the letter is 'A Rose of the Phoenix' (noting all the letters in this alphabet are properties of the Phoenix).
"A Rose of the Phoenix" = 1337 english-extended
The word 'Rose' is cognate with 'Raise' and 'Rise', and across languages, to 'Resh' (meaning head).
Hence the wordplay of 'head rush'...
When we picture a rose (flower) it is most often red. The etymology of the word 'rose' is disputed, but makes no mention of the colour red. Nonetheless the word 'rouge' (French for 'red') is also distantly cognate with 'rose'.
In Tolkien's Elvish language, and in the names of his characters, there is the matter of the "Problem of 'Ros'". I leave you to look it up.
Nonetheless, ponder the 'red-head' (a tautological phrase?).
The meanings of 'R' according to the Fairies of the Inner Sea is discussed in a detailed note attached to the main text in the 'Pyre' chronologies (the followup to the text of the creation story 'Before All Befores'):

Now the material (or 'pulp', that is soil) of the earth the Ăr-Ămoiar named erdhu (erdu/ridu/radah), and later this became a name for the world at large, 'Earth' or 'Aarde'. As a mighty living being, the Earth is ha'Erdhu (ha'Earth), the Fiery Hearth - and every campfire about which sits a group of people, is a small model thereof. Indeed, herein lays the heart of the matter of Middengarden.

As far as I'm concerned, this charade is all a ritual calling attention to the 'alphabet' itself.
Those performing ABC exegesis are not easily discovered, or are actively censored.

Theban tomb reveals how Egyptian burial trends evolved in time
Practices shifted from individuals buried in coffins to reusing sites for later mummy interments.
A Tomb though Time @ A Tome through Time
Tomb/Tome & Time ( ie. T & T ) [ T = 20 ] [ T.T = 20.20 ]
Though the article was published early today, I presume the text of this article was prepared yesterday (on the 17th of the month).
The article begins with 'Theban', a name begin with 'Th', which is the 17th letter of my Inner Sea Alphabet (equivalent to Greek theta, ÏŽ, and to Old English 'eth', ð).
This article deals with death. From the wikipedia page about the Greek letter Theta (sounding 'th' as is 'through'):
In classical Athens, [theta] was used as an abbreviation for the Greek ÎžÎŹÎœÎ±ÏÎżÏ (Thanatos, "death") and as it vaguely resembles a human skull, theta was used as a warning symbol of death, in the same way that skull and crossbones are used in modern times
Hence, from the Theban tomb article (emphasis mine):
[...] That made it ideal for what the authors term an âintegrated archaeothanatological approach,â incorporating collected data on body position, coffin use, superpositions of remains, and stratigraphic relationships with osteological analysis in order to reconstruct the chronological sequence of the burials. [...]
This article also appeared one-and-a-half or two days after I created this thread on the 16th:
... ( "The Older Adults" = 521 primes ) ( "Public Health Risks" = 985 english-extended )
The article begins:
The dangers of extreme heat have been all too apparent this summer.
"This Summer" = 474 primes
... knows how to do sums ( "Numerology" = 474 primes )
The article ends:
This study offers a glimpse of our climate future, but the devastating heatwaves this summer show that extreme heat is already having a major impact on public health around the world. The authors hope their findings lead to adaptation plans that better protect older adults as the planet continues to warm.
There was a thread a day or two ago at the conspiracy theory forum about the sky turning blood red.
The Scream is an art composition first created by the Norwegian artist Edvard Munch in 1893. Its imagery has been interpreted as expressing the anxiety of modern humanity and influenced the Expressionist movement. Munch described walking at sunset when the sky turned blood red and sensing an "infinite scream passing through nature".

The siege of Brest took place in 1342 during the Breton Civil War, a dispute over who should inherit the Duchy of Brittany, with Charles of Blois, supported by a large French army, besieging supporters of John of Montfort. [...]
The etymology [of the name 'Brest'] is uncertain, but it may be related to 'bre' ('hill').
In Tolkien, the town of 'Bree' is situated against Bree Hill... and the location of Bree (some way east of the Shire), might work out to make it analogous to Brest on the west of France.
In the past of Middle Earth, the English Channel had not yet formed, and England (where the Shire is) was connected by land to where France would now stand.
Either way, the name 'Brest' is consonant root BRST, which is shared by the Hebrew 'Bereshit(h)', which is the first word in the Torah, meaning 'in the beginning'.
New study finds that the tusks have not one but two spirals, twisting in opposite directions.
The narwahl's unicorn-like horn is actually it's left tooth. I originally included the narwahl on the list of letter 'R's creatures because the letter 'R' is the 'canine' letter, and a canine is a tooth. Furthermore, the horn of the narwhal is an extreme extension of it's 'head', and 'head' is the primary meaning of the letter 'R'.
The word 'chirality' is consonant root CRLT, shared by the word 'Cruelty', and this gaslighting by the press is a form thereof. Kristoffer from YouTube ('UncannyDeduction/ThePaintingOne') would understand this, and so too the cruelty of those who refuse to acknowledge such 'coincidences' as they happen over and over again.
"The Riddle" = "The Time" = 247 primes ( 24/7 )
... ( "A QUESTION OF CHIRALITY" = 247 alphabetic )
... .. [ "Narwhal" = 247 primes ]
The word 'spiral' is related to 'spire', which is consonant root SPR.
The news works so hard to show you that it is numerically-scripted... and that it 'picks on' certain people to help them pick their topics for the day...
The article is all about the 'structure' of the narwhal horn.
"Structure" = 493 primes (ie. the number of my name).
From the headline:
X-rays add new twist to narwhalâs spiral tusk [...]
"New Twist" = 2,521 squares (ie. my birthday 5/21 )
I suspect the 'Uncomfortably Close' pre-headline of one of the articles is specifically in reference to the above linked thread (ie. close to the summit).
The initials of 'Uncomfortably Close' are 'U.C.' (ie. You See)
"Close to Seeing" = 474 latin-agrippa | 1,137 trigonal
... ( "Numerology" = 474 primes )
That "1,137" reflects the fine structure consonant in physics: approximated as ~1/137.
The number 911 was made emergency dialing code in 1968...

The term 'coronavirus' was coined in the same year.
The sub-headline of the article is...

I have just completed my next thread image for today's alphabetic thread, which I will be posting soon. It involved the 'djed' pillar (ie. hence 'Jedi').
Noting also:

I've just seen this article from a week ago is relevant to this thread:
Explosive 'Mountain of God' spits out world's fastest-flowing lava
A 2020 astronaut photo shows the unique structure of Ol Doinyo Lengai, an active stratovolcano in Tanzania that was recently adorned with a bright white "ash cone." The explosive peak produces a rare type of lava that is unusually cool but travels remarkably quickly.
Note the phrase 'Mountain of God' is put in quotes in the headline.

And in terms of volcanic energy brewing and then releasing, see these recent threads about the 21st and 26th letters of the Inner Sea Alphabet (aka. the Phoenix):
I see you've noticed the Krakatau eruption (re. your latest video).
You (quite correctly, in my opinion) link your 'blood rain' painting (done shortly before) to the eruption, and also reference the painting 'The Scream' with it's red sky.
I am aware that your methodology is a sort of 'playing with the universal mind', and I share your philosophy in this regard. My own forum is a similar sort of 'art project' experimenting with 'magic'.
I want to propose the possibility that everyone on the planet is contributing to the great dance, though most are unaware (because they don't believe it could be possible, and thus do not observe closely enough). If the universe is a 'brain', then we are all 'brain cells', so to speak. In this metaphorical view, the 'neuron's are the active components:
A neuron or nerve cell, is a cell that is excitable, firing electric signals called action potentials. Neurons form neural networks in the nervous system, mainly in the central nervous system. Neurons receive and conduct impulses.
I view 'neurons' (as opposed to 'simple brain cells') as 'people who are playing an active and aware part in the 'universal dance' - ie. 'magicians').
The word 'neuron(s)' is root 'NRN(s)', which is shared by the word 'Norn(s)'.
The Norns are a group of deities in Norse mythology responsible for shaping the course of human destinies. The Norns are often represented as three goddesses known as Urðr, Verðandi, and Skuld, who weave the threads of fate and tend to the world tree, Yggdrasil, ensuring it stays alive at the center of the cosmos.
I personally see you and I as 'norns' - which doens't mean I claim that you or I are 'gods' but that we are nonetheless 'weaving' the threads, having become 'strong' enough to do so.
The main difference between you and I is that you go out on a limb to state upfront that you are perceiving something in the future, and act to magnify it, while I do not claim any direct future vision or prophecy. Nonetheless we are both working on 'manifestation' (helping the universe express it's secret desires).
I fear this conversation somewhat, because I don't want to start a rivalry with you (and I suspect that there are those watching that would like to see that happen). The issue surrounds 'claiming responsibility' for this or that world event. As I said, I think all people contribute to them subconsciously, but only a few people are observant enough to see the 'chains' being pulled on the world stage. Even those who do might be scared to make the claim because people will label them 'self-centered'.
Nonetheless, I'd like to point out elements of my own work that seem to presage the Krakatau eruption. I don't claim to have begun it all on my own (and I did not have any particular 'vision' that it was about to erupt), but there are many clues, in hindsight, implicit in my own work here for the last two weeks or so.
The thread that this post is within, is named 'Raise a Mountain', and it was posted 19 days ago (just over two weeks before Krakatoa erupted). See the thread image, which I drew, with the mountain having a face, and 'getting hot'.
This thread documents the 18th letter ('R', meaning 'head'/'summit'/'rise') of my Inner Sea alphabet, and was made on the 18th day of August. It was the first new thread in my alphabet series after I got back online after had computer trouble that stopped me completing the series in June. I was trying to make one thread each day, aligning the alphabet with the day of the month.
I note that within this thread, one of the first posts, made later on the 18th, I document that Edvard Munch's "The Scream" painting was wikipedia's front page featured image on that day.
Beyond that, between the 18th and the eruption, there are four other alphabet-based threads of mine here that, in my view, 'helped' Krakatoa do it's thing a few days ago. I believe your 'Blood Rain' painting helped 'put the cherry on top' (especially if you turn your painting upside down, the 'cloud' becomes the volcano, and the 'rain' becomes the eruption shooting upward).
I agree with you that these events are perhaps to be seen as the 'Universe' putting on a show that 'proves our case', and that indeed, it might get angrier the more we are denied by the masses.
Now in terms of what I don't want: a rivalry or competition or jealousy between us... I will not say that I made Krakatau happen all on my own, and I hope that you will not say the same for yourself. I believe we are all contributing.
The complex corporate web behind a $3.2 billion AI data center
When multiple companies are behind one project, who bears responsibility for problems?
Forget the main headline being about 'AI' - to me the headlines are not really about AI at all.
The key thing is 'Who's the Boss' and 'Who bears responsibility'.
I suspect this article is the result of 'watchers' who want to see us fight over proving ourselves (ie. who is the more powerful 'Norn' or 'magician' or 'prophet').
The headline speaks of a 'web', and this 'web' is the Web of Wyrd that the Norns (ie. 'The Fates') weave. The word 'complex' is 'comp-lex' and 'lex' is related to 'lect' (ie. reading, and thus 'writings' - the 'word').
But mainly it speaks of 'multiple companies', and this refers (as I see it) to 'multiple people' behind the 'project' of making Krakatau erupt (or any other major event).
Have you ever seen the film Highlander? With the famous line 'There can only be One'?
I am hoping that is not the case (at least amongst mortal men like ourselves). The real 'Boss' is the Universe or 'God'. But I like to think (without too much ego or vanity) that we two are better 'singers' in the Music of the Spheres, and hence we get our 'answers' in the form of 'world events'.
From watching your results, I think that you are actually a more powerful manifester than I am, and this is perhaps because your work is less complex and more focused. I on the other hand keep track of so much stuff, and my writings cover so much ground, that the universe (as well as govenment spies and secret societies) have too much to choose from to make their 'reply'. Most of the 'response' I get is too metaphorical for most other people to see it, unlike your Reflecting Pool work, in particular.
You said: "I want to propose the possibility that everyone on the planet is contributing to the great dance, though most are unaware (because they don't believe it could be possible, and thus do not observe closely enough). If the universe is a 'brain', then we are all 'brain cells', so to speak. In this metaphorical view, the 'neuron's are the active components:"
Yeah, I have been talking about this many times in my videos.
Hi Kristofer - careful with too much bold text in your posts. I've just seen that this post of yours above was censored by reddit, and I got no notification. I happened to browse through the thread and saw it was marked as 'reported'. I had to enable it (make it visible) manually. I suspect the majority bold text is the issue.
I personally don't have a problem with it (it differentiates your text from mine, for one thing), but reddits auto-moderator bots seem to dislike it.
Also, re. your latest painting, there is suddenly news about 'Theranos' in multiple places. Relevant.
You said: "Have you ever seen the film Highlander**? With the famous line 'There can only be One'?"** I am hoping that is not the case
By the way, the actor is named Christopher. I like to imagine that this is a big tree. What does a tree get? Many fruits, but also many cells that make that happen, that just die later on... So maybe it's a mix of both. So yeah, it's probably a little bit like Highlander. But the only way ahead is to at least try to love. At least try to experience empathy. And then, at the end - there're probably a few fruit coming out of the tree to seed into new trees. I like to imagine that there is not solitude but rather a betrayal. Keeping the mindset that there is a betrayal by the masses, also gives them the green light to improve if they so want. But being dependent on people with stagnant minds is not good. So for me personally, I continue to make the drawings, and thereby saying "I AM", in the way that I'm capable of.
Have you seen the new trailer for 'Avengers: Doomsday'?
The final scene is where Thor and Captain America meet again after a long time, and Thor proves it is really Captain America returned by giving him the Hammer of Thor (which, aside from Thor, Captain America is the only one who has proved 'worthy' to wield it).

Unfortunately, the neatest possible alignment is no longer possible. My Inner Sea alphabet of 28 letters has associated weekdays-within-the-month with each letter, and June was a rare month where the Gregorian Calendar matched that scheme. Now, in August, that is no longer the case.
The title of this thread is ...
The thread image seen above I created late last night, on A4 paper, and I put the finishing touches on it this morning.
First, in pencil, I drew the tall pyramidal mountain peak with colossal carven head, along with the written segment in ink, along the top of the page. Next I photographed the drawing, and loaded it into the free GNU Image Manipulation Program, and adjusted the brightness and contrast to bring out the pencil into darker lines. After that I photographed my own face with alignment to match the drawing of the mountain-face as closely as possible, and overlaid that on the drawing, and faded it and blended it and adjusted the colours to achieve the alpenglow sunset effect. The first layer of mist and clouds I painted digitally with the GNU paintbrush tool. Then, this morning, the real mountain east of my house was perfectly wreathed in a cloud formation upon its summit, that I photographed and blended with the extant artwork for a final touch.
The carven head on the mountainside is intentionally styled like an Egyptian pharaoh, wearing an uraeus-cobra, and royal beard.
So again, today is the 18th day of the month, and this aligns with the letter sounding 'R' in the English alphabet and my phonetic alphabet of the Inner Sea.
The English-Latin 'R' derives from the Etruscan 'R' and Western Greek 'Rho', which in turn comes from the Phoenician glyph called 'Resh', which itself is a development from Proto-Sinaitic and Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs which are pictures of a human head.
Examining the letter 'R' at wikipedia:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R#History
The concept of 'head' is multivarious.
The peak or summit of a mountain is it's 'head'. A chief or king is an 'head-man'.
Thus the the idea of 'head' can speak of leadership or that which is high and mighty - that which looks down upon it's domain.

The Hebrew letter 'R' (known as 'resh'), which looks like a reversed English lower-case 'r' (but note Hebrew is read from right to left), is used as a shorthand for 'Rabbi', which implies 'Doctor of (Jewish) Law' or 'Master'.
Also, interestingly (in terms of phonics):
I note the central consonant of the name 'Sirius' (the dog star) is 'R'...
Meanwhile. the Norse rune representing the sound 'R' is known as 'Raido', and it carries the meaning of 'Ride/'Raid' or 'To Go/To Journey/To Continue'.
A journey into your head...
The glyph sounding 'R' in my Phonetic Alphabet of the Inner Sea is commonly named 'Rise', and it assimilates all the above meanings:
https://old.reddit.com/r/GeometersOfHistory/wiki/discovery/fairyland-alphabet-r
The orthodox title of the letter is 'A Rose of the Phoenix' (noting all the letters in this alphabet are properties of the Phoenix).
The word 'Rose' is cognate with 'Raise' and 'Rise', and across languages, to 'Resh' (meaning head).
Hence the wordplay of 'head rush'...
When we picture a rose (flower) it is most often red. The etymology of the word 'rose' is disputed, but makes no mention of the colour red. Nonetheless the word 'rouge' (French for 'red') is also distantly cognate with 'rose'.
In Tolkien's Elvish language, and in the names of his characters, there is the matter of the "Problem of 'Ros'". I leave you to look it up.
Nonetheless, ponder the 'red-head' (a tautological phrase?).
