Barbelo

**Barbelo**, also known as the **Goddess of Ineffability**, the **Father-Mother**, **Goddess of Love and Creation**, **Mother Goddess**, and the **Triple Androgynes Name**, is the supreme Goddess of Creation and the co-creator of the Megaverse alongside God.

Barbelo is, represents and personifies the limitless and boundless silence that existed before the first sound was sounded by the voice of the Creator, waking up the void and bringing creation to awakening. The silence of the void has become the Aeon entity that governs silence and existence alongside her husband and co-being.

## Overview

Barbelo is often depicted as a supreme female principle, the single passive antecedent of creation in its manifoldness. This figure is also variously referred to as 'Mother-Father' (hinting at her apparent androgyny), 'First Human Being', 'The Triple Androgynous Name', or 'Eternal Aeon'. After God, she’s the foremost inhabitant of the Pleroma, the Gnostic name for Heaven. God didn’t create Barbelo; instead, she came into existence as an opposite in appearance to God.

God the Father, Barbelo the Mother, and Christ the Son form a three-member divine family. The Gnostics thought of this as the divine model of which all earthly families are an imperfect, corrupted reflection.

If that heavenly family sounds a lot like the Trinity of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, that’s probably no coincidence. To be sure, the idea that Barbelo, the divine mother of Christ, is identical to the Holy Spirit is seldom. We should therefore be careful about categorically claiming that this was a view held by all or even most Gnostics. But the extant Gnostic texts certainly seem to assume such a view in their mentions of Barbelo, such that we can indeed tentatively ascribe that view to most if not all of the Gnostics.

Barbelo is portrayed as the mother of Jesus Christ. Barbelo is described as "the first power, the glory, Barbelo, the perfect glory in the aeons, the glory of the revelation". All subsequent acts of creation within the divine sphere (save, crucially, that of the lowest Aeon Sophia) occurs through her co-action with God.

Barbelo is the primordial goddess of all existence and everything that is part of the concept of "being". She is the Father, Mother and Parent of reality itself, being equal to God and at the same time distinct from Him. Barbelo is the original Mother, not an Earth Mother Goddess, but the Mother Goddess of the Universe. It is the uncaused cause, being the gray screen that exists between the duality of Is and Not-Is, being neither acceptance nor negation, but a gray and pale maybe. She is the Supreme Goddess of the Abrahamic religions, known by many names and titles, manifesting through countless shadows of her incomparable being, such as the Holy Spirit in Christianity, Jibreel in Islam, Shiva in Hinduism, or through Her beloved Son Jesus Christ.

Due to her role as Wife of God, she was called by the gods of other Pantheons as the **Goddess of the Bible** or **Abrahamic Goddess**. Among humans and mortals, she is relatively unknown to post-Flood peoples, as Yesh and His wife disappeared after the flood, with all of the two's interactions with biblical figures being through their alter egos. However, Virgo and Maria mentions that Barbelo in pre-Flood times was a goddess much worshiped by ancient peoples, being equally important as the Creator God.

## Appearance

As an ineffable primordial entity that exists before Creation, whose true form (if any) transcends comprehension, Barbelo must use physical forms in lesser planes of existence. Whenever appearing in front of an Archon, she appears incredibly beautiful in an attempt to enchant the Archon to her side. Other times, however, she will change her appearance depending on her mood. Her appearance in Heaven is usually hermaphrodite, which has made them known as "Father-Mother" or "Triple Androgynous".

During Yeshua's baptism, Barbelo manifested as a white dove, similar to God who manifested as the Holy Dove through the Holy Spirit. It can be said that the pair of pigeons was literally representing the divine couple present at the baptism of Their Son.

When through an avatar, Barbelo manifests as a being of both genders, possessing both male and female characteristics, but at an extraordinarily high level of beauty, that is, supernatural. In their physical form, Barbelo has a white face, white hair, and a thin body, with a delicate face as a man and woman face. In this form, the goddess of creation looks like their alter ego, God, with their Voice and light being so powerful that one would easily mistake Barbelo for the Christian God.

## Personality

Barbelo is often inactive in earthly affairs, as God is always in control of the situation, she then only intrudes when needed. Whenever humanity is in danger or heading towards chaos, she will always send a Messiah to guide humanity from darkness to light. Like the time she (along with God) sent her son beloved, Jesus Christ, to rid mankind of Satan and Yaldabaoth, and bring Sophia back to the Pleroma. Despite this, most of the time, she prefers to sleep for countless years until they need her help. Your sleep is not a literal "sleep", she just distributes its essence throughout creation in a state of omnipresence, without emotions, desires, wants or words, existing as a concept, still and quiet, in total silence.

## History

In the beginning there was nothing. An infinite nothing, and the universe was ravaged and empty. There were only chaotic oceans covering the void, and darkness covering the Abyss, and then God came into being. When God looked at his reflection in the Aquatic Abyss an entity appeared that was Barbelo, and Barbelo seeing the beauty of his co-being walked out of the waters towards God, when Barbelo came out of the waters a shadow was left by her, a shadow that would come to be called Therion. Both Barbelo and Therion are considered Gods equal and opposite, being opposite in appearance and gender.

The role of the Goddess of Creation is unknown during the Primeval War, all that is known is that she was God's helper during the war, having always been by his side. After defeating the agents of chaos and imprisoning them, the Lord breathed into the abyss and said "let there be light" and there was light. And as the universe expanded, new worlds were created, including the Heaven that was found by God and he decided to make that place His home.

God and Barbelo both got married and had a son, the personification of the Word, the firstborn of creation, the Autogenes, God proud when contemplating his son said: Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Barbelo then decided to create a new species of beings, the aeons, and when she did, they praised the Invisible Father, saying: "It is because of you that everything exists and everything will return to you. I will praise and glorify you and the Autogenes and to the three aeons: the Father, the Mother and the Son, the perfect power."

After the fall of Lucifer, the fall of humanity and the coming of sin into the world, Barbelo was terribly saddened by what happened to his spiritual and earthly children. There was still the matter involving Sophia who had fallen and become an ordinary human who suffered in the human realm with hunger, alone, unprotected against wild animals. Barbelo felt powerless and unable to help her creations. In deep sadness, she no longer wanted to see so much pain from them and decided to sleep for thousands of years.

The Goddess however, was awakened in the last decade before the beginning of the Common Era by Gabriel, when the Scribe was asked by his mother why he woke her, he replied that God had created a plan to bring humanity back to the light, and bringing Sophia back to Paradise as well, and that would involve the descent of a God into the realm of mortals, namely, Jesus, who knew that evil must be destroyed, no matter how high the price to pay.
