The akme of the Hawthorn outlines the changes occurring at the stage of a system’s “maturing”, its transition from frightened-new to a stationary state of existence.

The first akme encompasses the initial stage of the “birth” of a system’s energetic activity: the emergence of its own properties and characteristic features.
By examining the separate stages according to the nature of the plants, one can not only understand the characteristics of the “inner” life of a flow of Power, but also uncover the “hidden” levers for guiding its currents.
If the mind attains the integrity of a flow, if it flows smoothly and continuously from one state to another in its full totality — life becomes a Way.
For the Magus, the principled value is precisely inner harmony, integrity, and the orderedness of mind; and by striving toward these, they can — more or less effectively — resist attempts to intrude into their psychocosmos.
Each person can choose—whether to remain in the protected, cozy, yet enslaving “ordinary” perception, or to step into the far more dangerous, but more liberating space of the “reverse” reality.
Viewed systemically as Arkanom, a Magus receives in this system a most powerful apparatus for discovering new ideas and the patterns governing the psycho- and macrocosm, and thus not only deepens his level of understanding but can also attain new heights of realization.
A person must understand well that in order to untie the knots that limit his possibilities, he will have to not only show persistence and inventiveness, but also expend exactly the same amount of energy that went into tying them.
Creation contains within itself the possibility of destruction, and destruction — the possibility of creation.
The world of the Magus is not “black-and-white”; it is simultaneously and wholly both black and white. The Magus is a maximalist in the strictest sense of the word.
A mind striving for accelerated evolution, depending on its individual characteristics and level of awareness, most often attempts to proceed either along the “Right” Column, the Column of Holiness, or along the Left Column of Severity.
For a Magus it is vitally important not only to discover his strengths, but also the gaps in his development; not only to cultivate what obviously seeks growth, but also to work on “illuminating” the depths of his mind.
The Magus is “in his place,” in his natural state, when he understands that within himself are Choshekh, Pleroma, and Logos.
