The Spiral and the Thread
How Earth Erases, Myth Remembers, and Consciousness Returns
by J. H. Cragin
What if memory is not just personal?but planetary?
The Spiral and the Thread is a poetic, visionary journey through collapse and renewal, myth and memory, science and spirit. Author J. H. Cragin invites readers into a world where time is not linear, but spiraled?a sacred pattern through which Earth forgets and consciousness returns.
Combining ancient wisdom with modern insight, this book explores how civilizations rise and fall, how trauma and healing echo across generations, and how lost knowledge reawakens when we listen deeply to the land, the ruins, and the stories we carry in our bones.
From caves to classrooms, from the silence of stone to the resonance of stars, this work reveals a spiral framework for understanding collapse not as an ending?but as a gateway to deeper awareness. At the center is the Deep Time Renewal Theory, an original model of consciousness unfolding through cycles of forgetting and remembering, fragmentation and wholeness.
Part mythic memoir, part philosophical inquiry, and part narrative theory, The Spiral and the Thread is for seekers, survivors, and those who suspect the past holds keys to the future.
If you've ever felt the pull of something ancient, if you've ever wondered what still lives beneath the ruins?this book is your invitation.
