albionspeak: a draught of language

albionspeak  Timeline

1959           Albion is born abroad, while his father works as an international banker.

1960           Scribe is born to a line of West Point graduates, the middle child of

                   three.

1962           Albion’s family, along with his new younger brother, settle in San Carlos,

                   California, after his father becomes a high-school language teacher.

                   His parents would live there for the next 26 years.

                   Albion lives a wonderful childhood.

1970-71      Albion’s father takes a sabbatical year to study in Madrid, Spain. It is

                   the most important year of Albion’s life, full of travel & learning; and,

                   coincidentally?, this marks the point in time when Albion’s soul

                   chooses eternal life and enters the Jewel Net karass—Scribe having

                   done so “much earlier.”  

1972-76      Albion thrives at college prep boarding school.

1976-81      Scribe & Albion attend the same liberal arts college, though they run in

                   very different circles and don't meet until 1980. 

1981-82      Albion attends grad school in West Germany and, once away, receives

                   Josef’s dreams, which he heeds but misreads = Germania. 
                   Scribe heads to the Ivy League for his PhD.

1983-84      Albion earns his teaching credential & master’s degree, meeting his

                   wife in the same program.

1985          Upon marrying, Albion & wife move to Washington state, unable to afford

                  housing in the Bay Area.

1987          Albion lands a teaching job at W. Middle School, a top-tier public school,

                  where he teaches for the next 29 years before retiring. Albion’s wife

                  would teach at three different middle schools over her career.

1989          First ouija contact. Every calendar year through 2005 would record

                  sessions.

1990          Albion & wife move into their dream house (which Albion unintentionally

                  designs) following a year of construction; two months later daughter

                  Deirdre is born.

1992          In Session 10 Albion & Scribe discover their karass, opening the  

                  floodgates. 

                  Daughter Rhiannon is born.

1994           Scribe & Albion finally meet Don & Vilansit, the last of Circle Cup to be

                   introduced. The mandala is revealed. 
                   Without knowing it, Albion passes the nadir of his non-flyer’s life’s

                   parabolic trajectory, the halfway-point since entering the Jewel Net: It’s

                   all uphill from here to flight.
                   After abandoning his PhD, Scribe discovers the Nine Men.

1995          The biggest ouija year, including both summer & winter sessions.

                  Scribe & Albion begin their official apprenticeships (Scribe having

                  already started unawares months before). Albion chooses his mastery:

                  ma’at.

1996-97     After Scribe’s father passes, ouija takes a two-season retreat to

                  Upstate, New York, a pastoral setting, where Albion briefly can escape

                  domestic tethers. At the board, Scribe’s & Albion’s lessons diverge, both

                  in content & pace.

1999          Scribe completes his Nine Men and becomes a flyer, the culmination

                  of five years of continual focus & awesome determination.

2001          Albion discovers O., though not the reverse, and they would never meet

                  in life.

2003          Scribe is assigned the task of finding A., namely Advisor. When they

                  finally do meet, Advisor soaks up the ouija history & curriculum in mere

                  days, having come to much of the content on his own already. 

2004          Advisor makes his first trip to Washington state, and ouija becomes a

                  threesome. Advisor immediately is greeted as a full member.

2005          Scribe & Advisor work closely together, daily, nightly, on many planes.

                  Albion can’t follow, which does not affect the final ouija sessions, but

                  spells the end of the physical partnership. Scribe & Advisor would

                  continue their training, including having their own ouija sessions.

                  Meanwhile, Albion would continue on his own, at his own slow pace,

                  while living a full & fulfilling domestic life, including many family travels

                  far & near, all the while working on his Nine Men.

2014-15     Albion & his wife, finally empty-nesters, take a year off from teaching,

                  including five months in South America. In the months before leaving,

                  Albion gives full-time writing a try and finds it good.

2016         After teaching one more year, Albion retires to write. His wife would work

                 an additional year before her own retirement.
                 Following the catastrophic November election, Albion begins selecting

                 ouija sessions for proper sharing and composing these very lessons. 

2018         Albion completes his own Nine Men sequence and becomes a flyer, 

                 following 22.5 years of continual work.

2019         After a frightening struggle, Albion swallows his tiger.

2020         COVID-19.
