Lux Colloquii – Trance Blackman

Lux Colloquii is a Latin phrase meaning “light through conversation,” and it represents the throughline of my life’s work: amplifying the light. It is an ongoing exploration of ideas and possibilities through in-depth conversations between myself and OpenAI’s ChatGPT.

Covering topics such as philosophy, psychology, politics, metaphysics, spirituality, science, and wellness, this space, must like my regular journal, serves as a forum for curiosity and reflection. Each post unfolds as a question-and-answer exchange, offering authentic interactions with AI that invite deeper inquiry into knowledge, consciousness, and the human experience.

Because ChatGPT reflects built-in biases and often mirrors mainstream narratives, this project is an exercise in critical thinking, discernment, and intuition — testing how well I understand the ideas I explore. That being said, verify things you find here for yourself!

If you’re drawn to thoughtful conversation and fresh perspectives on both timeless and emerging themes, Lux Colloquii invites you to engage, question, and explore.

In all things — amplify the light.

Medicine’s Dark Night of the Soul

29 June 2025 ~ 15 minute read

We’re at a turning point — not just in institutions, but in consciousness. As the veils thin and the damage becomes too visible to ignore, what was once dismissed as fringe or conspiratorial now echoes through the cracks of collapsing systems. This isn’t about blame. It’s about recognition — and reckoning. About peeling back the sterile façade to reveal the deeply human cost beneath. And, most importantly, about remembering there’s another way to be here.

Statism, Inflation, and the War on Meaning

28 June 2025 ~ 20 minute read

We’re not dealing with broken systems — we’re dealing with systems working exactly as designed. Centralized governance, media manipulation, and economic sleight-of-hand aren’t new phenomena, but they’ve reached a crescendo post-2020 that many can no longer ignore. What follows is less a dissection of current events and more an unmasking — a lucid exploration of power, perception, and the slow, quiet collapse of the narratives we were taught to trust.

One System, Many Paths: The Toroidal Nature of Consciousness

27 June 2025 ~ 17 minute read

It’s easy to get lost in the fragments — systems dissected, chakras isolated, breath separated from mind, and medicine divorced from spirit. But there’s a deeper rhythm pulsing beneath all traditions, teachings, and technologies. In this exploration, we return to that simplicity: the remembrance that everything — energy, biology, consciousness — flows in one unbroken loop. A torus. A breath. A field.

Notes on Living with Sacred Contrast

26 June 2025 ~ 20 minute read

These are field notes from the edge — a trace of the inner walk, not toward perfection, but toward deeper recognition. What follows isn’t doctrine or dogma, but an honest reflection from the terrain between paradox and purpose, between memory and moment. It’s about contrast. Sacred, maddening, revealing contrast — and the subtle light it casts when we choose to face it rather than flee.

The Codex of Control: Myths, Machines, and Manufactured Consent

25 June 2025 ~ 19 minute read

This exchange wasn’t planned — it emerged in the moment, sparked by a fragment of thought, a thematic ripple from a podcast. As with many of my discourses, what began as speculation unfolded into something more reflective, more structured. A probing of the veil we live beneath. This is not a manifesto in the traditional sense — it’s a constellation of ideas, terms, and frameworks to name the intangible patterns that shape our world. Take from it what resonates.

The Trickster: Order, Chaos, and the Archetype of Becoming

23 June 2025 (revised 25 June 2025) ~ 18 minute read

These dialogues aren’t meant to deliver conclusions — they’re designed to open portals. I offer them not as doctrine, but as reflection, exploration, and invitation. In this particular discourse, we wander into the territory of tricksters, cosmic cycles, simulated realms, and the ever-shifting line between order and chaos. If any of it resonates, linger at the doorway. What calls you further in, walk toward.
