CREATIO
Creatio - Ancient Latin word  for 'creation' or ''creativity''
Beneath the material visible layer of existence, there is also some invisible force that sets in motion the alchemy of creation. The eye can't detect it with its receptors, but it is there – in the core of the soul.
When unleashed, creative lifeforce can transform unorganized chaos into perfect order, build new, recycle old, and/or give life to emptiness. It is a spark that can start the flame of creation, the trance-like state of mind where time and space cease to exist and everything that exists goes out of focus.
The creation of the new becomes the priority and main focus, that magic ingredient that gives life and form to randomness and chaos.

AGÁPĒ
Agápē (ἀγάπη)Ancient Greek word for ''love''
Agape refers to the highest form of love: unconditional, selfless, and sacrificial. Unlike eros (passionate/romantic love) or philia (brotherly/friendship love), agape is selfless affection that seeks the good of others without expecting anything in return. In ancient Greek texts, it originally meant general affection (e.g., for family or activities), but in the New Testament and early Christianity, it became the divine, charitable love – God's love for humanity and the ideal human love toward others.
Agape begins within: only by loving ourselves can we love others unconditionally.

SHANTI
Shanti (शांति) - Sanskrit word for ''peace''
Shanti (शान्ति) is an ancient Sanskrit word meaning profound peace, inner tranquility, and harmony of the mind, body, and spirit. Rooted in Vedic traditions, it represents the stillness that arises when disturbances cease, often invoked in mantras like "Om Shanti Shanti Shanti" to wish peace on physical, mental, and spiritual levels. More than mere absence of conflict, Shanti embodies a deep state of serenity and balance that connects the individual to the universe.

HARMONIA
Αρμονία (Harmonía) - Ancient Greek word for ''harmony''
In the realm of harmony, body and mind merge seamlessly, orchestrating a symphony of wellness. Serotonin, the conductor of our neural orchestra, fosters equilibrium, radiating from the core of our being.
This harmonious alignment isn't merely an internal affair; it manifests outwardly, propelling the flow of life energy with natural ease. Just as unseen forces ignite the alchemy of creation, this inner harmony cultivates the fertile ground for transformation, where chaos surrenders to perfect order.
It's a dance of balance and vitality, where the external echoes the serenity found within.

It represents the flowing creative passion and vital life force that ignites poets, artists, and seekers – the inner flame of enthusiasm and joy that drives us to live fully and create.Symbolised by three rays of light or three dots, it originates from the myth of the goddess Ceridwen and the three drops of wisdom that spark spiritual awakening and motivation.In Druidic tradition, Awen is the sacred spirit of nature – the burning energy within the soul that connects us to the universe and fuels our life's purpose.

Ba (pronounced "bah") – Ancient Egyptian concept closest to personal self-awareness and individuality.
