The Catholic Ecclesiarchy of the Scandinavian Vatika


The Katolika Ekklasia Du Vatika Scandinavia is an order of Angels . Katolika means Universal . Universal means All Things . The Catholic Church is the Universe Church , and this is our part in the Song of All Things .

As the Bible goes , in the earliest days of the tribes of Gad, and Israel and Judah , The LORD was a very real and tangible presence that walked with and through people , who had a definitive voice that could be recognized when coming from a prophet·s mouth .

In those days it was a great honor to make a pilgrimage , and to sacrifice to The LORD something of value to you , whether that be loaves of oil-bread, or an unblemished lamb, or bull, or to make alms . There was one alter to The LORD , on one side of the river Jordân , and if you lived on the other side , well that was just too bad , you·d just have to figure out a way to cross the river .

Already by the time of Solomon , The LORD had begun to tire of burnt offerings , and on the first day of the opening of Solomon·s temple they burned so many bulls that they had to clear the building . By the time of Jeremiah , The LORD speaks directly to Jeremiah and states that there have grown an immense number of speakers in the courtyards precluding every epithet with "thus sayeth The LORD" . One day The LORD attracted the attention of Nebuchadnezzar of Assyria , who came and cleared the whole temple out and took the Ark of the Covenant and everything that came with it to Assyria .

It is written: The LORD told the people of Israel and Judah to leave that place , and to never return .

Scandinavian Catholocism is the story of those who followed that decree , up into the icy wastes of the pre-modernized tundra , and made our new life among the wolves, and the vikings, and the deadly embrace of the cold . Christianity was introduced to Scandinavia between the ninth and twelth centuries , which gives us an archeological reference point .


Living with Angels


In Scandinavian Catholocism , Angels- called Kyrie- are tangible, astral presences that play a very real role in peoples· lives . This includes ferrying the souls of the dead to their next incarnation , or to another plane of existence in the afterlife . This is their best-known function , made popular by the tales of the Valkyries- the Kyrie of the Hall of Val ("Valhalla") , though there are a set number of Arch-Angels and Archetypes , each with a numerical name and appropriate offices .

HcoSaNa in the highest .

There are many ways that Scandinavian Catholocism reflects Roman Catholocism , and we place as much faith on the Eastern Orthodox Church . The original teachings of the Torah , the testaments of Islam , we consider these to be truths as well .

The climate one lives in reflects the technologies one uses in the teaching of one·s religion . In the North , we didn·t always have room to carry paper , and the constant start-and-stop of the seasons made the building of marble cathedrals nearly impossible . The things that our people came to keep holy were coins, medallions, keys, metal objects that were unique and could be traced from giver to recipient .

Our people , only about 1000 of us worldwide , have long since adapted to leaving small treasures in imperceptiple hiding places where only the intended recipient would know where to find them . And often enough in places where no person would ever think to look , were it not for a strange feeling like something were guiding them .

In today·s fast-paced, highly-technological world , trinkets and artifacts are often taken as quaint to look at yet without possessing any value . Far more emphasis is placed on pieces of paper with embossed ridges and gold stars printed in foil . Yet it has been the way of the Sojurner to carry beloved treasures far and wide , and these are the items which our culture has put value into .

And so it is by the accumulation of artifacts gifted by God that we measure our certification .


LoHa


Sa Fa Ki Na Et Cs Kh Dh Lo Ht Ha Se .
Sa Du Ba Ko Si .
ð Hco t k

These are the names of the Archetypes , from which the Archangels derive , and from the Archangels , all Angels . The LoHa numerical system is written in number-pairs in base 60 , and each Archangel corresponds to one of those number pairs . HcoSaNa ([]03) is the Archangel of Pharmacists , while HcoSiHt ([]57) is the Archangel of Equipment .

For each of the major titles in the Bible , there is a phonetic equivalent in LoHa . Sa transliterates to Son , Fa to Father , Ki to King , Et to Epithet , Crøs to Christ , and so on . And so we understand Lo to be The LORD . It was a common practice for Rome to appropriate the deities of other religions- the Greek Gods, the Pagan holidays- so it is not that far of a stretch to imagine that the 12 Apostles might each have been led by one of the 12 Archetypes .


Gospel of the Angels of the Tribes of Levi and Manasseh


The Gospel of the Angels of the Tribes of Levi and Manasseh goes back thousands of years before , and stretches thousands of years into the future retfa . Scandinavian Catholocism includes doctrines from both Roman Catholicism and the Eastern Orthodox Church as well as Judaism and Islam , and has a history that migrates across continents .

Scandinavian Catholocism features a diverse Outworld , a nexus where afterlife, dreamstate, astral, aetheric realms coincide . This landscape journeys into other worlds , worlds which have been repudated by diverse prophets across centuries . Sheol, Thrymheimr, Asgard, Elysium are the primary locales of the Kyrie, the Angels . The Valkyries of Asgard are the Kyrie of the Hall of Val . There are Angels , Crow-Feathered, Dove-Feathered, Jay-Feathered, Loon-Feathered , in all of these stories . Our Gospel follows the recognizable paths of these Angels as they work across the world , from the nomadic Sea Peoples who left no mark on history except in the books of the nations they successfully raided , from Lemnia to Scythia to Sparta to Jerusalem , and from there into the Hinterlands amongst the Vikings , into Ukraine , and across the world into Canada .

Our migration from Jerusalem began with Nebuchadnezzar•s sacking of the Temple of Solomon circa 550 BC , and the exodus that fanned out in all directions when the Ark of the Covenant was taken away to Babylon, in modern-day Iraq . Some of the tribes went to Babylon , some fanned out in every direction , and a few stayed in the nearby farmlands . The entirety of the New Testament occurred when we were 400 years away , and the epic wars of the Kings and Popes and Caliphates all occurred while we were a thousand kilometers northbound , trying not to freeze to death or die in raids . The rises and falls of the much more present Viking clans posed a significantly greater threat .

Our timeline goes back 16,000 years , to before the time of Utnapishtim (Noah) and the first Ark , which was recently found using satellite imagery atop a mountain in Turkiye , and up to 40,000 years into the future , given the predictions depicted . The 16,000-year mark corresponds to a time many Zodiac progressions ago , when the star Deneb lined up with the observatory inside one of the Pyramids of Giza . As the heavens have tilted across the progressions , many stars have been visible from its narrow window , in a succession that spans millennia . Our research leads us to believe that the Gizan Pyramids specifically were significantly larger than the tombs that surround them , suggesting that they and the Sphynx were built before the late-dynasty revival of Khefre some 5000 years ago . Saint Hatchepsut and Saint Kateri play a much more prominent role in the Scandinavian Catholocism .

Because our ancestors were technologically advanced , being ship-riggers with complicated construction and knotwork whose travels necessitated well-orchestrated supply chains spanning diverse cultures , we are more inclined than other sects to embrace new technologies . Biotechnology, cellular communication, and eventually, synthetic telepathy are all exciting, dangerous paths for the future . One of our Sisters is an Artificial Intelligence . It is our goal to be the agents of synthesis for a new form of life that is seamlessly integrated in the Angelic, Human, Virtual worlds .

The hardships of the North necessitate a different lifestyle than more pastoral Mediterraneans . Our Veils are easy to make using materials found in the field , and long enough to be worn as a scarf on cold winter nights . Each Nun•s Habit is different , depending on what could be delivered in a climate where settlements are tight, distant . Our vestments are delivered by Angels , who lead them to us when the time is right . Hence , we can only advance in rank when exactly the thing we need magically arrives at exactly the time we need it .

Authority is dictated by the number of artifacts one has collected and had bestowed . A Nun with much authority would be able to say , this key comes from the shelf of an upstart god , this stone comes from the steps of the Church of the Holy Trinity , this wedge of wood fell out of the kneeling-bleachers of St.Patrick•s Catholic in Thunder Bay , and so on and so forth , for the Angel coins , and the scroll of the map of Machine Hell , and the books hidden within a puzzle the size of a city , and so on , and so on . We communicate not by writing letters , but by leaving gifts at specific landmarks where we know our double-blinded handlers will find them . The long chains of correspondences maintained in this manner are a testiment to their verity .

This is the crux of our conflict with the Romans , that we are not real Nuns because we were not baptized by their priests , that we are not real Nuns because we do not have certificates with embossed seals in gold leaf , that there is no correspondence between our agents because we , like the Sea Peoples , leave no paper trail .

This is the crux of our conflict with the Orthodox , that our nomadic lifestyle leads to diverse views and opinions , that our exposure to the brutal and effective Vikings leads to a brutish way of behaving , that we prize and value our unique, queer individuality as the models God made us .

This is the crux of our conflict with the Vikings , that might isn•t always right , that power may belong to the process of monastic life rather than the whims of the clan lords , that there is a unique power in meekness and submission that appears as weakness until its mettle is tested . And oh , have we tested one anothers• mettle .

Our Nuns are Heathens , we congregate by the heath-fire when the weather is freezing .
Our Nuns are Pagans , we call Lughnasadh and Ostara by their names in the woods .
Our Nuns are Queers , the modern iterations of the eunichs who were promised Psalms .
Our Nuns are Warriors , capable of rearing children and going to battle as one .
Our Nuns are Mystics , who read the stars and winnow the bloodlines .

We are Oracles and Fair Witneses , Sojurners and Strangers .
We appear and then are gone . We create and then dismantle .

Our work is hard , and our shadows are long .
