Another traditional #plunge today for the #Orthodox #Epiphany (Holy #Theophany of Christ) to commemorate Jesus' baptism in the Jordan River, symbolizing spiritual purification, forgiveness of sins, and a fresh start for the new year. We got "feels like" 23F/-5C. No Siberia...

At Christ's #baptism, heaven opens and our access to God is inaugurated. We exiled children of #Adam and #Eve are called beloved.

PERIPHYSEON The Division of Nature JOHANNES SCOTUS ERIUGENA I. P. SHELDON-WILLIAMS, translator JOHN J. O'MEARA, translator and editor
PHILOSOPHY ••.... Johannes Scotus Eriugena (ca. 810-ca. 877), commonly known as Eriugena, was an Irish monk, translator, and philosopher. By 851, he was at the West Frankish court of Charles the Bald, where he would remain for the rest of his life at the palace school. His Periphyseon has been called the "final achievement" of ancient philosophy ~and draws on Eriugena's knowledge of both the Greek and Latin Christian theological traditions, remarkable in the Carolingian world. The work presents a Neoplatonic cosmology in the form of a catechetical dialogue between master and pupil covering the fourfold division of nature, in which all of reality is involved in a procession from and return to the One. Although Eriugena had followers in his time and later among the mystics-the School of St. Victor, Eckhart, Tauler, Ruysbroeck, and the German mystics, and Nicholas of Cusa and his professed disciple Giordano Bruno-many in the West did not welcome his ideas, and his work was condemned by Honorius III in 1225. I. P. Sheldon-Williams was a scholar of the Christian Neoplatonic tradition and editor, until his death, of the critical edition of the Periphyseon in the Scriptores Latini Hiberniae series. John J. O'Meara was Professor of Latin at University College Dublin from 1948 to 1984. He did much to further the study of Eriugena, founding the Society for the Promotion of Eriugenian Studies in 1970. cover design: Kathleen Sparkes • photo: Shaunl / iStock 1187702969 Please visit us at www.doaks.org/publications to see all of our titles.

Three kings in a bed inside an illuminated letter e, greeted by a golden angel and surrounded by a blue border.
Someone once said "Happy Throuple Day!" and I can't unsee it.
Blessings to all who celebrate.

✨ It was an honour being able to witness the ancient #Cypriot Feast of #Theophany today, January 6! While Western traditions often celebrate the Magi's visit of Bethlehem, the #Eastern Church marks this day by commemorating the #baptism of Jesus in the Jordan River by John the Baptist. [1/4]

The Adoration of the Magi by #WilliamBlake. Happy #Epiphany!
One thought about the image. There are two sources of light: the star and the child. Only, that's really one. Mirrored by the magi, the star offers back its light to the one source, the uncreated light born of Mary. #Theophany.

St John the Baptist elevated and revolutionized a Jewish ritual when he started baptizing penitents. Jesus brought his grace to the ritual, allowing it to become something even greater:
