The Causal Essence of Aion

For Aion is neither beginning nor end, but both; for all the spheres or being which it energises, end where they begin, and begin where they end. They dance in eternal revolution, for their everlasting revelling-place is in the vortex of the ceaseless leitourgia, or service, of the elements. For Aion is the cause of the cause of the mighty whirlpool.
