Sister Two and The First Trikona
Edited 2/17/08
~As of this moment, The Temple is still a 'mom and pop' outfit, just me and Le-Le, Her Prophet and Sister One, some Master and his Switch Bitch, chillin' in a double wide at the northern end of the Antelope Valley.
And that's okay...
For two years, from August 30th, 2004, when I first wrote the words The Temple of The Pentavalence in a spiral notebook while homeless and staying in a rat hole sober living house, to September 17th, 2006, when Le-Le first arrived in Southern California and was Initiated as Sister One in the living room of my one bedroom in Santa Monica, The Temple was just me, myself, and I.
Fourteens months after the latter event, Le-Le was totally moved out here and into said double wide, which is 1800 square feet, and has 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a big kitchen, a huge high ceilinged living room, central heating and AC, and a laundry room, so I sure ain't complaining. I'm mighty comfy here, thank you very much.
The overall progress has been steady and positive...and the reality is, until we get a 'third party', the prayed for Sister Two, The Temple is not yet genuinely an organization, though we are more than just 'a couple'.
The organizational building block of The Temple, which I shall also use in The Sisterhood Trainings, is The Trikona, a cell of three bonded Sisters. It has been reported that The Trikona was the basis of Amazon social structure. Whether that is true or not, it shall be the basis of The Temple's social structure and therefor one day of the New Matriarchy itself.
There are three types of Trikonai (of course). The most common will be The Peer Trikona, three equal Sisters who have chosen each other. A Blood Bonding Ritual will be part of their connection, but the individual nature of each Trikona will vary as much as the Sisters who form them.
The second and third types of Trikonai are variations on the Mentor/Student relationship. Most of these will be a Mentor or Elder and two students or acolytes. There will also occasionally be the inverted version of that where two Mentors take on a particularly gifted student. But in either case, these are Teaching Trikonai.
It is in this context that I state that Le-Le and I are 'less than an organization', but 'more than a couple' as we are two of the three legs of The First Trikona of The Temple of The Pentavalence.
We do not yet know who Sister Two shall be – she may be one of you reading this right now – but we do know some of what she shall be: a Majickal Practitioner who wishes to pursue the goals stated in The Temple's Initiatory Ritual and who understands the utility of The Pentavalent as a Metaphysical Operating System. And she shall also be a bisexual Switch Sister who is willing to enter into The Sacred Circle of The Collar and submit to my Training.
While the former is understandable to most, the later has caused confusion and even controversy, so I will make an attempt at a brief explanation.
Patriarchy, in the simplest terms, is about the dominion of the male and the suppression of the female. I am a large, aggressive white male who comes from money and privilege , in other words, a Patriarch, albeit a turncoat one. In Patriarchy, women are oppressed as a matter of course, often in ways that they do not even notice.
The purpose of The Sacred Circle of The Collar and my Switch Training is to take the Sister in question back to square one: total and absolute submission. She completely surrenders to her own oppression, allows herself to be 'broken', by Patriarchy as represented by me, but does so willingly.
This is a place of tremendous power. No more fighting. No more struggle. No more defending. She is actually free. Then, once she has settled fully into this subspace, she can begin move on from this paradigm of surrender, at her own pace, as I give her back the pieces of Her Self, pieces she gave up willingly, but each part transformed as we will explore and examine each of them and how they have related to her life under Patriarchy.
This process will continue until the Sister Her Self becomes Master, and, having learned to grasp The Dominant End of The Leash, can Collar others, both Sisters whom she can guide through the same process and males, some of whom will become Korettes and part of The Temple, and some of whom will be just ordinary subs, to be used and exploited as their Mistresses shall see fit.
To those who will criticize this as Behavioral Modification, I say, “You're damned right it is!” Patriarchy programs us 24/7/365. In order to lay the foundations of a New Matriarchy, that programing has to be uninstalled and since it is buried deep, the process has to be harsh and rigorous. The difference here is that we shall explicate the b-mod process every step of the way. The first goal is Self Awareness, then outside action and organization.
This process however, is an expedient, a method necessary for Sisters raised up inside Patriarchy. At some point that need will fade away, though that will take a few generations at least. But Sisters raised inside The Temple itself will have no need of this type harsh transformation. They will learn to be Amazon Warrior Priestesses, starting from when they suckle at their mother's breasts, through forming their own Peer Trikonai at five or six, to being Students in a Teaching Trikonai, and ultimately becoming Elders in Teaching Trikonai, and therefor owning their innate power will be as natural to them as breathing.
That is the long term vision. And it will truly begin with The First Trikona.
The specific nature of The First Trikona will of course be depend upon the dynamic created by Sister Two's entrance into the existing relationship. But is will certainly be a mutable mixture of all three types of Trikonai: a relationship of equals, as we will all be Spiritual Beings on a mutual Path, a Mentor and two students, as I am Her Prophet and a Master, and also two Mentors and a student, not only Le-Le and I teaching Sister Two, but the both of them teaching me, as my Path requires that I aways Learn from my Sisters because the are, after all, Daughter's of The Goddess.
And so it is...
