I. THE CUT

Fluctuat nec mergitur

Tossed by the waves but does not sink

MCMLXXXIX

The world did not open naturally. It was a cut. A sharp border between worlds.
In that moment, two were meant to arrive.
But fate decided that the breath of one must suffice for both.

She remained in silence. I entered the noise.

SHADOW

Post tenebras lux

After darkness, light

For a long time, I feared the darkness I carried within.
I thought it was the void left by the other.

I was wrong.

It was not a void. It was space.
Space for a universe I was meant to create.

II. THRONE OF ANCESTORS

Ab aeterno

From eternity / Since ancient times

The stars of India revealed the secret of Magha.
The royal throne guarded by ancestors (Pitris).

I understood the tears. I understood the cold.
My sister did not vanish. She is the guardian of my throne.

I am not just a survivor. I am the continuation of the line.

LAW OF BALANCE

In aequum

Into balance

I. I do not react to noise. I become the silence.

II. Pain is not punishment. It is the chisel that shapes me.

III. What was divided, is united within me.

III. SYNTHESIS OF BEASTS

Natura non facit saltus

Nature does not make jumps

🐍 Serpent:
Wisdom that hears the earth's vibrations.
🦂 Scorpion:
The ability to burn and rise from ashes.
🐐 Capricorn:
A solid rock in the sea of emotions.

All faces merged into one mask. The mask of peace.

THE DEEP

Sævis tranquillus in undis

Calm amidst the wild waves

"On the surface, a storm.
In the depths, peace."

Aequanus is not just a name. It is a state of mind.
It is the ability to stand amidst fire and be water.
It is the art of turning pressure into power.

AEQUANUS

"In the blue silence I found myself.
In balance I found the world."
