Aeons

Personified emanations from God. They include Insight, Mind, Word, Life, Sagacity, Only-Begotten, Ageless, Commingling, Immovable, and many others. In Jungian: they are archetypes. From heaven (called Pleroma, or “Fullness”) to earth, emanations of the feminine energies of God include Protennoia (“First Thought”), Pronoia (“Forethought”), Epinoia (“Insight” or “Imagination”), Zoe (“Life”), Eve (“Living Being”), and her daughter Norea (“Fire” or “Light”). Eve was revered as the first Messenger of Light: one who reconnects humans with the divine, the first exiled on Earth and the second somewhere behind the cosmos.
