Human torches the children beheaded and burned alive in Rafah while some people dance at the bonfire festival. For how many millennia ritual sacrifices have been feeding the powerful with blood and fear? In the West evidence emerges of new diabolical plans of enslavement. The hegemon and his vassals enjoy the ecstasy of war: the entire planet is held hostage. But the dollar gives way, despite the dancing on the deck of the Titanic, ready to sink. Neo-colonial empires collapse, finally the global south raises its head. “Tell us, Themis, how can one repair the damage to mankind?” Prometheus moulded us from Night, from Earth and from Water. In our DNA vibrates that of the Titans Japetus and Themis, the Goddess of the cosmic order. Of their sons, Atlas, Menetius, Epimetheus and the rebellious Prometheus who defied Zeus to give us the fire of the gods that still today tempers our spirits. Now he traces new routes, the Titan god: they do not connect only the west and the east like the routes travelled by Marco Polo and by others for centuries before him. The new routes cross oceans and cordilleras, they weave a dense network of relations between the peoples of the north and the south who have suffered the ancient diktat: DIVIDE AND RULE. The same diktat that has always been imposed on our minds, the battlefield of the war on humanity. “Back to natural law, to justice” suggests mother Themis to the untamed descendants, to that humanity that has always been inconvenient for the ferocious usurping powers. “Let the chains fall and tread new routes” the son echoes her as he reactivates the divine fire that makes us say NO to evil, to abuse and deception. Guided by our courage we finally say YES to Virtues that inspire. NO to the flames of the sacrifices of the innocent. YES to the alchemical fire that forges forever Peace and Freedom.
