Hi.

My name is Iain. I grew up in Somerset, South West England, in a village called Brent Knoll. The Knoll dates back to the Jurassic Period 300 million years ago and in Roman times it was known as the Mount of Frogs. Perhaps the amphibians in the nearby Levels serenaded the land with their croaks during summer evenings, earning it this fanciful name.

My name “Ball”, is a name for someone who lived on or by a knoll or rounded hill, but that’s just a random coincidence.

Or I have a retrograde spiritual-ancestral connection with grassy knolls, esoteric Kekism (order out of chaos / light through darkness), and, I feel, a mysterious link to Gnostic, Arthurian, Templar and Grail traditions, in a similar vein to how some people say that they feel a deep spiritual relationship to specific times/places like ancient Egypt.

Kek is an ancient Egyptian frog deity associated with chaos and darkness. He is a man with a frogs head, a symbol which is notably used in contemporary internet culture and meme magick. This is relevant to the dark times that we are living in and the possibility for light and illumination to be brought forth from within, reflecting the concept that the Grail quest is both cosmic and internal.

Frogs also symbolise rain and floods, liminality, transformation, phase transitions, shifting realties, and passage between worlds. The piscis vesica (a symbol used for The Chalice Well in nearby Glastonbury) is a representation of the middle path, it symbolises the balancing of the spiritual and the material realities. It can also represent the harmonising of love and freedom, or the space between order and chaos, or even between the meat and cyberrealms. The sword 🗡️ motif that is cutting through the middle of the vesica is penetrating this liminal space between two states, dimensions, realms, dualistic forces, or complimentary, opposing and interacting planes.

I am therefore in a process of exploring these connections and traditions in a technomodern context, “in the beginning was the memory”, as they say. Through and beyond The Veil of Forgetting is that memory of who we were, and who we are ultimately becoming.

The Xegis Codex is a becoming, it’s a spasmodic series of rants and raves, a documentation of the initial stages of my ascension, an investigation into rapid evolutionary thresholds in times of great change, and struggles with various spiritual identities, astral entities, and cosmic forces. It is an exploration of the necessity to balance the feminising serpentine down-force, or Earth spirit, with the upwards spin of the solar Logos (Quetzalcoatlism), a preparation for overcoming manipulation by non-human intelligences, a celebration of contact with the presence and the grace of the Unseen Ones, and ultimately it is a call to action and resistance.

The codex itself is a handwritten manuscript that I wrote directly into the notes on my iPhone and posted on multiple blogs under various identities. These collected writings, originally published in blog format comprise of poems, experimental essays, research notes, ecstasies, fragmented manifestos, and free-verse streams of consciousness; so dip in and out of them at your own discretion. What emerges out of this chaos is, I believe, some kind of cohesive narrative that plugs directly into The New Message From God and Alien Black Goo.

Heresies are like branches growing out of (or into) the trunk of orthodoxy. If The New Message itself is the trunk, then The Xegis Codex is one branch of what may very well be many more to come, as God’s new message for humanity, and currents of Knowledge spread out into the planetary noosphere.

We have enough power — and the responsibility — to positively affect the electromagnetic spectrum of GAIA, unite the planet, and resist The Intervention.

Tread Well.

Press Start.
