KRNL Cycle 1 (KC1) is the beginning of a new calendar count mapped upon the Gregorian Calendar, beginning in 2022 CE.
Each of the 12 months is assigned one of the KRNL First Order Aspects, with the four corresponding Second Order Aspects assigned within each month on a weekly basis. The Cardinal Aspects fill in the four remaining weeks. The first observed aspect was: KC1-1. Knowledge on January 2nd, KC1.
I’ve tried to arrange the current draft of the aspects into a progression that meaningfully builds on itself in a sort of spiral. The early months focus on individual refinement and growth; proceed through an expansion and flourishing; and then on to reflection, community, and interpersonal development, before beginning again with the self.
In Part 3 of the Introduction you’ll find a calendar of the monthly assignments for the First Order Aspects in KRNL Cycle 1, which are less likely to change than the upcoming weekly selections. You can also subscribe to the public Google Calendar to receive updates and have access to the running weekly list, which will update as details are added.
Below is a table tracking all of the published aspects so far for reference, arranged in the original 16×4 Codex array to easily see how they were derived. As aspects are decided upon, articulated, and revealed, this table will be kept updated with the latest links.
