The story behind Ishka's name
When they all came together – and by “all” we mean all the beings who participated in the conception, creation and birth of the Little Butterfly Cosmology and the Ishka System – the main debate centered on the name of the system. They understood the profound impact a name has on any being, especially since they were changing Lady Alchemia’s name. It was not a task to be taken lightly, as it would reverberate for years, if not decades or centuries.
This time, it was different for Adargoma. His star family did not want him to follow their instructions. For the first time in his life, it wasn’t just about his star family. Merlin and Odin were the initial participants, inviting Lady Alchemia to this crucial meeting in order to devise a new form of alchemy.
Traditionally, alchemy focused on physical elements, but the landscape had changed both physically and metaphysically. The alchemists had all but disappeared, transformed into various forms as sorcerers, magicians, healers, shamans and light workers.
However, most had lost the essence of alchemy or followed practices that contaminated or overcomplicated transmutation, the fundamental principle of alchemy. The emphasis had shifted to the attraction of the metaphysical to the physical, losing sight of the essence underlying the nature of transmutation. Many had become living magnets and, although some still practiced alchemy with herbs, crystals and minerals, these methods were in need of modernization. The reborn human mind overcame self-imposed limits, demanding an updated and expanded approach.
The old gods were replaced by new gods relevant to the modern era, embodying Frequency and Vibration. These gods, despite having various names, all represented Frequency and Vibration. Modern alchemists spoke of them through numbers, energy, colors and brain waves, but lacked a common language to describe them. Science reduced them to numbers and equations, while spirituality saw them through feelings, thoughts and emotions, without the pragmatic qualities that made them accessible.
Lady Alchemia asked Asêhya-Anâhya, head of the Esêh-nerâh Family, for advice on bridging the gap between the metaphysical and modern eras. Gathered in a cave house in Gran Canaria, where Adargoma lived, excitement and joy filled the air. Adargoma began to write down names, most of them related to the etymological origin of alchemy. However, it all seemed too expected or soulless, until Lady Alchemia suggested naming it Ishka, after Adargoma’s dog. In researching the meaning of Ishka, Adargoma discovered that it was a girl’s name in India, meaning love and “the one with friends and no enemies.” Recognizing that the system was intended to spread love in a new way, they unanimously agreed that Ishka was the ideal name. The Ishka System was thus born out of love, and Adargoma always wore a loving smile when he shared it with the world, as the name Ishka evoked a loving mindset.
