The Temple of Sophia
Seven pillars of Souvereign Sharing, taking shape at the Centre for Syntropy in Bali
Ten years of writing have moved through me, held all along by Sophia, by my Spirit Cronemothers of Waitaha, and by the Spirit of Anuw in Vanuatu. I never set out to build seven pillars. I set out to write what was true and useful, book by book, healing by healing. Looking back now, the pattern was already there, present in the work the whole time.
Each pillar below holds its own ground: its own writings, its own practice, its own way in. An image placeholder sits at the top of each portal, ready for its own photograph. Enter through whichever pillar calls you first.
New to the word Syntropy?
It runs underneath all seven pillars, and a plain answer to what it means opens the way in.
Healing & the Return to Wholeness
Meeting the parts of Self that trauma and conditioning once split off, returning the nervous system to its own feeling-based intelligence.
Sacred Birth & Conscious Parenting
Pregnancy, birth, and the earliest days of raising a child, held as the first ground where a person’s Will of the Soul is honored or interrupted.
Return of Sophia
Wisdom speaking directly through the cells, unbound: the same Sophia in me, in you, in every living thing.
Wananga of Love
Indigenous wisdom and grandmother teachings, carried forward as a living transmission rather than a stored memory.
School of Syntropy
Life understood again through its own function and connection, in nature and in the body, questioned with curiosity rather than judgment.
Human Ecology & Sovereignty
Reclaiming the Will and Freedom that patriarchal and cult programming once clouded, restoring feeling-based navigation as the body’s rightful compass.
Sovereignty & Freedom
Feeling-based relating and the journey toward Freedom, held as one arc: how we relate to others reflects how we’ve reclaimed our own Will.
How do the seven pillars meet the seven saints and servants?
Two reference documents shaped this temple’s seven-pillar form: Seven Saints & Servants to the Divine Feminine, and The Seven Pillars of the Divine Feminine Temple, a design for an actual future building at the Centre for Syntropy in Bali. Six carved pillars and one hidden axis mundi, each one carrying a saint, a Balinese goddess, and a structural role in the temple itself. The correspondence below is a living anchor, not a fixed rule.
- Return of Sophia rests with Sophia herself, Dewi Saraswati. The wisdom that conceived the whole design.
- Sacred Birth & Conscious Parenting rests with St. Anna, Dewi Danu. Grandmother of the lineage, the foundation stone touching raw earth.
- Healing & the Return to Wholeness rests with St. Emily de Vialar, Dewi Ganga. The healer whose purification flows outward to a thirsty world.
- Sovereignty & Freedom rests with The Magdalene, Dewi Ratih. Devotion at the center, the heart as the temple’s compass.
- Human Ecology & Sovereignty rests with St. Emma of Bremen, Dewi Sri. Warden of the land, the boundary that protects the commons.
- School of Syntropy rests with St. Emilia of Caesarea, Dewi Parwati. The cross-beams binding six pillars into one structure, the same weaving Syntropy itself describes.
- Wananga of Love rests with St. Claire, Dewi Gayatri and Uma. The radiant mirror, carrying wisdom as light rather than instruction.
