2.5 Potentiality and Actuality

Potentiality exists in the sense-realm

potential things must have a definite character, like bronze has potentiality since it can become a statue
- potential does not become the actual, the latter should be understood as taking it's place
- The actualized entity is a compound of Form-Idea upon Matter

Form is an actuality (the actualization of a thing) though not the principle of Actuality in itself

No Potentiality in the higher/Intellectual sphere
- what about Divine Matter?
- The Matter there is Idea, the same way as Soul is like a Matter to a higher Being
-- does Soul have Potentiality then?
-- no, Soul in the higher sphere is unchanging

That which possesses unchangeable identity is an actualized entity (the highest entities)

Matter is excluded from the entities founded upon it, it is strictly Potentiality, Non-Being/Authentic Non-Existence, it's existence is "like an announcement" of a future compound

Basically at the end of this cycle we will have Heavenly Jerusalem descend onto this world, and it is known via deep symbolism that the next Terrestrial Paradise (Garden of Eden) procedes precisely from it an will thus launch us into the Golden Age with no intermediary steps. Heavenly Jerusalem represents the a cube (earth element) and the final 'solidification' of this world (read previous chapters).
