Millennial Apert
Definition and Timing
Millennial Apert is the thousand-year occurrence of Apert (periodic opening of gates) in the mathic world. The term “millennial” indicates alignment with thousand-year intervals in A.R. (calendar era) reckoning.
Associations and Function
In standard usage, a Convox (large convocation) of avout (cloistered scholars) is normally celebrated only at Millennial Apert or after a sack; in highly exceptional cases it may also be convened at the request of the Sæcular Power (worldly authority). This frames the millennial cycle as a rare, high‑importance moment within the Apert tradition.
Notable Instance
- See Millennial Apert of 3000 for a cited example used as a planning benchmark for crowd management and hospitality.
Notes
- Relationship to other openings: Millennial Apert is a special case within the broader practice of Apert; other cycles exist and are treated separately on their own pages.
- Terminology: “Apert” names the opening period itself; “Convox” names both the mass assembly and, by extension, its host concent during such a period.
Millennial Apert is the thousand-year instance of Apert, the rarest cycle of the mathic world’s gate-opening. It is one of the occasions on which a Convox is normally convened, apart from times following a sack or exceptional requests by the Sæcular Power.
