Ostiarius

At some point in life, everyone encounters a gatekeeper in one form or another. For me, this gatekeeper embodies the force behind reality and illusion—a state of mind akin to entering a complex machine that operates incessantly before rejuvenating itself for the night. It’s a state of mind I cherish.

The gatekeeper is the custodian of energy, orchestrating communication throughout the creative process, and safeguarding all that is sacred, thus harmonizing the inner self and laying the groundwork for a fresh start.

In my realm, the gatekeeper (Ostiarius) is the threshold to another world, a clandestine domain where dreams materialize, and darkness serves as the canvas for boundless imagination—a realm devoid of boundaries and limitations.

As I tread through the seemingly endless path of darkness, distant lights emerge to guide me towards an unknown haven of tranquility. Here, I shed all burdens, reigning as the sovereign of my hidden kingdom, traversing fields adorned with vibrant blooms and golden hues, as the light reflects my fervor in the distance.

The dark caves serve as a poignant reminder that fear has no place in transforming rare beauty into its purest essence. To navigate uncharted territories and carve my niche in time, I must align with the universe, embracing risks and evolution, for within darkness lies the potential for everyday life to embrace extraordinary beauty.

Embracing self-belief and the boundless prospects to explore and indulge in passions epitomizes the essence of the gatekeeper within us all—our personal Ostiarius.
