World of Water

This world is blessed with water, but all people care to do is complain about it. Droughts. floods. food sources from the water, the resources under it, whose drinking water is whose... isn't there a point at which it stops? This world is one with water, with only a small amount of creatures consuming it, there should be enough for many generations without worry.

Water management is what people think is needed when it's simply water re-distribution. Something that was much harder in the past with limited understanding is now nothing with the technology available. Not just technology now, but with technology that is hundreds of years old, just that the problems are only noticeable now. Well, there is plenty of water to go around. Isn't everybody saying that there is too much water in the world's oceans currently anyways? So why not take the water from the oceans and redistribute it around the world using natural energy to do it. This is why the elements are there, simply because they work well with each other and sometimes even solves themselves.

People without even a basic understanding of this process of element interaction are amusing. For this reason and many others, following the 5 is well worth the effort.

Fire Society

There's nothing wrong with fire. As a co-creator of everything and a necessary creature in the food chain (yes, it can be argued that it's a form of life) fire is vitally important for everything. But in terms of society, dating back from when man first 'tamed' it, fire has never left us.

As a society people love to say that we are beyond fire and have progressed from the simple days. After all, we have cars, powerful ships, planes, and a world of electricity... unfortunately, those people who think like this have to remember, that those things rely on fire to run. It is a world based on oil, and fire is what eats it, so that's what gets to help us. Too bad its waste is quickly turning the world into something that is bad for us.

Perhaps now it's a time to remember that there are other elements besides just fire. After all, there can't be a balance by simply focusing on one of the 5.

Atlantean Theory

There are many stories and theories surrounding who the Atlanteans were, but there is no disagreement when it comes to their being a force to be reckoned with. Whether being people of a lost continent, members of a scholarly circle, a religious following, or just a sub-culture of another country altogether, they were known for their vast abilities in understanding and awareness of the natural world. As some of the few to recognize chaos for what it was, they dutifully tried to understand all the elements to their fullest, either achieving very interactive systems or physical beings reflective of those elements. Either one, the other, or both together, would make them a truly superior force to respect and fear.

But that power would also ultimately lead to their undoing, as the ability to control the human aspect of it forced their hand in an unfortunate direction. But before all that, they were able to maximize their efficiency of living by structuring their lives along with the elements, and not against them. Just as nature tries to structure itself accordingly, so too did the Atlanteans.

Long before the fall, the Atlanteans decided that man's ingenuity was something that was best used when it could forward change, rather than placing false hopes into waiting for change or desiring an outcome that would satisfy a lazy existence. If it was a problem in the environment, they'd fix it with their intelligence. If it was a problem with the weather, then they would make the weather work for them. It wasn't exactly clear whether a god existed for them and their culture, but they became their own god, and that was partially a reason they became the existence they were.

It would only be truly beneficial for everyone living in the world today if they were only half as capable with their intelligence as this fallen society was those many thousands of years ago. How sad for that...

The Open Story

After the beginning... there's everything else, right?

Following the formation of everything, the stage is moved to our world, Earth, where the 5 elements are abundant and interact on a daily basis. In the ancient civilizations there was much debate over the use and practicality surrounding each element and the different mindsets split the opinions of the people. With the split in opinions and the devotion towards different aspects of everything, the elements themselves were split into different personifications of gods within early religions and explanations pertaining to existence. Everything beyond this point leads to the innumerable quantity of beliefs in being today.

As to not offend any religions from this point on (as 5 Follow is made to be appreciated by people of any religious order) non-historical 'facts' will be presented with the Label "Open Story". Where the Open Story connects bits of truth and fiction and presents them as interesting bits of information that could be either believed or rejected entirely. Basically, Open Story = fiction, but with all fiction there is no certainty when it comes to the amount of truth it contains.

At the Beginning

It is said often from repeated sources that everything begins with nothing and the universe and what is known today is no exception. In fact, the nothingness state that was present at the beginning of time and space within this plane of existence still exists, it just has been displaced by the spherical formation of this particular universe and its entirety, which as infinite as it seems is limited by its boundaries yet to be discovered. Beyond those boundaries is the timeless, colorless nothingness that for lack of a better word is the void between realities, or the separator of the multiverse expanse.

Without getting into too many details, the nothingness is formless and boundless, but serves as the edge of a perpetual constant commonly known as zero, or as in special sense, the null barrier. This null barrier is what separates numbers and their opposites, as well as quantitative fragments of reality. Without going further than necessary into the explanations of the null barrier and its crossings, the mystery of everything begins with the division by zero, or in quantitative perspective, the act of forcing something positive into the world of negative. Where the correct answer to something divided by zero is some negative fractional infinite value.

That being said, in order to cross the barrier, it is necessary to match the barrier with a force and size proportion equal to the constant of size time. When the time sized quantity of energy matches as it does through forces beyond gravitational extremes, it is forced across the barrier and into the opposite plain of existence, in a phenomenon known as the Grand Reset. With this breach, the small rift pulls this building block of existence through the null barrier and causes a saturation of null energy and acceleration as positive is pulled negative. This acceleration event has up until this time been referred to as the “Big Bang” and the start of the universe, and in terms of elements, it is the beginning of chaos.

As this chaos swept through the void of nothingness and created something, it established time and started building larger particles on a continuous basis as the everything continued to spread out, with more null energy coming through the breach until everything on the positive side came through to the negative side (or negative to positive) relatively in a time span that would be rather instantaneous. Eventually the spread of energy and the saturation lessened as the expansion covered more area, and the particles of existence became larger.

The next element to be formed after chaos was air, which consisted of hydrogen quantities accumulating in the section of dark matter that is known as space. Whether the process of the gravitational compression set it off or a direct impact of the null energy ignited it, nuclear fusion in the hydrogen spheres began the formation of stars, and the birth of fire in the young universe. With the fusion-furnaces in place, the elements of the periodic table began to form, eventually creating a great range of atoms from the hydrogen gas start to the heavy metals and radioactive world (earth, ground, etc) elements. Only after the death of the early stars did the heavier substances seed the greater expanse of space. At what time and through what process after that or during the event, water came into being.

From chaos, to air, to fire, to earth, to water, and then with the formation of planets and the collection of all the later four elements, chaos energy re-emerged as life. Thus it could be said that the god at the beginning and the ever present god is no more than the null barrier and its energies that gave substance to everything, only to take it away again at the point before the next reset. For now however, to best understand and work with the five elements is the key of following.

What is 5 Follow?

5 Follow is an awareness movement that tracks the progress of humanity and its growing relationship with the five elements, based on the Atlantean system. Like the classical and alchemic listings, four remain unchanged. These four are (in no particular order) as follows:

Fire
Earth
Water
Air

The fifth from previous records would be Ether, Space, Void, or so on, which represents the aspects of the universe that doesn't line up with the main four elements, like energy, nothingness, and life. However, Atlantean scientists recognized the initial condition as a continual one, and not just a starting point like many cultures and religious orders. They recognized the Chaos from which everything started as the fifth of the five elements, or even as the first element.

Thus the five elements are Chaos, Air, Water, Earth, Fire.

To follow the 5 is merely to be aware of humanity's use and interaction with them and how to best utilize nature in standard practice of living. Quality, harmony, and balance only comes when all 5 are followed equally.
