A Mythic Map for Deleting Kronos.exe
Before the Guidebooks: The OS Map I Wish I Had
When it comes to the latest two articles that I wrote, you might have noticed a shift from the more serious Jungian and mythological Orphic framework. After having gone through the process myself, and having written many articles from that framework, I started to realise that modern people would find it difficult to understand what I mean. So I wrote them a sort of introduction type deal, for my older articles. In that same vein I am writing this current article. Which will thus cover the psycho-spiritual framework of what I have coined Neo-Orphism. Bridging now the myth-tech speak back towards the deeper Neo-Orphic truths, and process.
I started of with describing the Soul as a sort of operating system with archetypes as installed Functional Data Clusters, sort of core programs of what I called the Phanes OS, which is a term I used for the operating system of humanity. For deleting the old Bronze Age program called Kronos.exe, there are a few key players that we need to understand, which are tied to the Neo-Orphic process. Which we can see as the USB that carries the data to get rid of the Kronos.exe malware.
Nyx: The unconscious ground of being, OS Kernel and BIOS
Phanes: Main Operating System (pure consciousness)
Kronos: The super-ego layer of familial and societal trauma (Super-Ego Virus)
Zagreus (Dionysus): Scattered soul fragments, entangled ego states.
Hermes/Persephone: Messengers and mirrors, external triggers that reflect internal bugs still present in the system.
Wolf-Apollo/Artemis: Individuation plugin for breaking through Kronos.exe, is a subroutine for booting Sovereignty.exe
Sovereignty Goddess/Jupiter: Main program for deleting Kronos.exe, think of it as the Programs and Features settings page, that rebalances the OS.
Why This Map Matters
Why does any of this matter? Because most people are running Kronos.exe without even knowing it. They think it's 'them', but it's not. It's inherited shame, trauma, and control systems. And unless we know what the real programs are, we’ll keep trying to ‘fix’ ourselves by installing more self-help apps that just reroute the same command line. We get stuck on self-help TikTok, or scroll endlessly, searching for the next self-help trick that promises to fix our distraction habits. By replacing them with others. Neo-Orphism offers a symbolic repair kit, one that doesn’t rely on belief, only on curiosity and honest engagement with the self.
It took me about 5 years of nearly constant focus on it. But I did not have the map yet. So it was a lot of trial and error, and figuring things out on the go. But with a proper map, as I now have. Probably somewhere between 3 to 5 years, on a more slow casual pace. Once you know the process, it ain't that difficult anymore. What doesn't help is all the externalisation business. Nor the I am literally this archetype inflation trap. That is over-identifying with a single part of the OS, and giving that program admin control.
Neo-Orphic Deprogramming Sequence
1. Kronos.exe
Malware of inherited trauma, shame, and control.
It must first be seen before it can be deleted.
2a. Hermes
Dream analysis, reflective conversations, trickster energy.
Works like a debug scanner through symbols.
2b. Wolf-Apollo/Artemis
Somatic anger, dance and rage work.
Breaks Kronos.exe’s emotional suppression routines.
3. Dionysus + Persephone
Inner child reconnection + grief processing.
Recovering emotional fragments, allowing vulnerability + somatic work.
4. Sovereignty Goddess + Jupiter
Soul integration.
The system begins to stabilise. Sovereignty.exe gets installed and takes over from Kronos.exe. This requires an emotionally safe environment to internalise.
5. Nyx + Phanes (optional advanced mode)
Full reintegration of opposites.
Unity consciousness. Gender, time, and identity dissolve into presence.
This is where the OS becomes aware of itself as OS.
If you want to dive deeper into the raw, mythic material where this process unfolded in real time, I’ve archived all my original Neo-Orphic and Jungian writings under the ‘Path of Nyx’ category, within order of the process. Consider this article the USB adapter that connects this newer tech-speak world with that ancient myth-code.
Now that the symbolic architecture is more or less mapped out, the next phase of this project is to go fully practical. Short guides, symbolic exercises, and applied shadow work for those who don’t care about myth, just healing and reintegration. Yet before that I want to go deeper into the process itself, in the next article, whilst highlighting the archetypes involved, to give you a bridge between the tech frame and the myth lens of the older articles. To help you ease into the process. For those who wish to read up more on it.
