In the third book of the Michael Nicolau Series, Michael embarks on a "Portuguese Camino" from Porto to Santiago de Compostela in just seven days. Since he had never made a proper Christian confession, he attempts to make amends by confessing directly to God while walking. This fictional narrative is based on and inspired by a quote from the 19th-century work by an anonymous author, The Way of A Pilgrim: "By the grace of God, I am a Christian man, by my actions a great sinner, and by calling a homeless wanderer of the humblest birth who roams from place to place. My worldly goods are a knapsack with some dried bread on my back, and in my breast pocket, a Bible. And that is all."
Seven Days to Santiago is expected to be released by March 1st, 2025

In exploring the phenomenon of Freemasonry, it is impossible to overlook its portrayal in popular culture and historical narratives. The organization has often been linked to conspiracy theories and whispers of hidden agendas. This arguably stems from its rich tradition of symbolism, eccentric rituals, and secretive meetings. As such, the mystique surrounding Freemasonry can lead the uninitiated to view it as a puppet master manipulating the strings of society.
However, can we subscribe to the controversial idea that Freemasonry has a life of its own within our collective unconscious? It is worth considering that the allure surrounding the organization stems from humanity's innate desire to search for meaning and connection. In a world often rife with division, the fraternity of Freemasonry promotes ideals that transcend individual differences, inviting men (and women) to embark on a journey of self-discovery within the framework of community service.
To navigate this labyrinth of symbols, rituals, and philosophies, one must approach Freemasonry with an open mind. The society’s historical roots trace back centuries, with origins steeped in the age-old pursuit of knowledge and betterment. By educating ourselves about Freemasonry’s principles, we may demystify its practices and appreciate its contributions to society.
Ultimately, the truth about Freemasonry lies not in the darkness of conspiracy nor in the blinding light of idealism, but in the balance of these perspectives. By shedding preconceived notions and gaining insight into its values and objectives, society can move toward a more nuanced understanding of this ancient fraternity.
