Meditations

Marcus Aurelius · ~170 d.C.

A Stoic philosophical diary on control, perception and deliberate action.

The Stoic key: only your judgments and actions depend on you. It is the ethical framework Molino adopts when it says the map doesn't predict but gives perspective.

It isn't a numerology text, but it's the practice of self-governance that complements any symbolic reading: separating what depends on me from what doesn't.
