Introduction to Eternity Unmasked
This is the new, improved version of the Scarlet Phoenix,
also previously known as Two Spirits, One Soul.

Why "Eternity Unmasked?"

A mask is any device which wholly or partially conceals the face.   It is significant to note the word  "person" derives from a Greek word meaning mask,  or the role played by an actor in a dramatic  performance.   Persona, "the mask," is related to personality, the self or ego we reveal to the world.   Masks have the ability to conceal, change, or transform the "person" behind the image into something or someone  else.  This "as if" quality of masks makes them both playful and powerful.  Masks allow us to pretend, and much, much more.  In "play," children and adults are able to become something they are not; something  that cannot be.   How much more powerful, then, must a mask be when the transformation is considered "real?"

Masks encourage us to transform ourselves, and empower us to do so.  They permit us to replace one reality with another.  They can ultimately provide us with a better understanding of who we really are behind the role/masks we put on every morning and take off every night in our dreams.   Here is the eternity where the real becomes masked and a new reality is created where we can unmask.   Here, illusion unmasks and becomes real. Credendo Vides!  In believing, one sees!  This is the essence of the blue rose.
