One Daily Tale

When the 7 Shapes first began working on their project, they thought about how to make the best use of the StarDust.

Because Shala was there, they understood that setting a daily time limit was essential to consider. They also all agreed that, for habits to be “realistically doable,” they needed to be simple and short.

They knew the Espers and their magical powers struggled to think about the world with a long-term perspective: it wasn’t in their nature. They preferred to enjoy quick and fleeting pleasures.

But the 7 Shapes understood that just a few minutes of work each day, repeated over years, could lead to mastery.

And because the StarDust required the combination of the Five Elemental Elements to truly take form, the idea of a short daily practice became clear.

Just One Step at a time.

Just One Daily Tale.

    Faya, the Shape of Willpower and the Element of Fire, liked to put into practice the very principles she taught at the Great Library of Esperia. Even before learning about the StarDust—and that it required the harmonious combination of all Elements to eventually take shape through a radiant Aether Flow—Faya had always understood that practice…

    This may sound obvious, but as you eat healthier, you become healthier. Yet, when we look at what is consumed in the wealthiest countries on our planet, it simply doesn’t make sense. Companies earning millions of dollars sell sugar-filled foods and drinks—because they sell. Why? Because adding sugar makes the product addictive, and your brain…

    Eklea, the Shape of Awareness, pondered where to begin if a civilization had no knowledge of the Seven Shapes. Surely, neither harmony nor peace could exist in such a world. There was so much to unpack—especially for the youngest ones, who would have to absorb so much and try to discern what truly makes sense…

    Gurumin, the Shape of Empathy and Compassion, loved to sleep. Yet sometimes, when bedtime arrived, she wanted to stay awake just a little longer to enjoy the day. But studies on sleep by Vati, the Shape of Wisdom, showed that getting proper rest each day is one of the key ingredients for maintaining a good…

    At the end of one’s life, what will we regret not having done more of in our own unique journey? For many, in the modern societies of the richest nations ruling this planet—and mostly destroying its nature and our only living habitat called Earth—the regret won’t be about money, time spent working, or the possessions…

    The development of technologies based on fossil fuels has changed the way the richest countries ruling the world live and behave. Not that anyone would rather return to the Stone Age, but when we recognize the physical limitations of planet Earth, we understand that those who will suffer are not only the forms of biodiversity…

    Shala, the Shape of Time, understood better than anyone how powerful habits were for the Espers. To nurture their StarDust, it was important that those habits be as healthy and beneficial to society as possible. Why? Because time each day is limited, and the StarDust functions in a special way: a few minutes of daily…

    It is now widely accepted that climate change is happening—and that its consequences are rather bleak. On top of that, we also understand that the fuels causing this crisis are limited, as are all resources on our shared planet, Earth. Meanwhile, the entire system remains rooted in a growth-oriented economy that fails to take into…

    Isn’t it easy to simply watch what’s in front of our eyes and go on with our own lives? Yet what we can see now extends far beyond our neighborhood — the entire world is at our doorstep. Of course, no one can carry all the world’s problems on their own shoulders. But that doesn’t…
