"

In many Gnostic systems, the aeons are the various emanations of the superior God or Monad. Beginning in certain Gnostic texts with the hermaphroditic aeon Barbelo,[1][2][3] the first emanated being, various interactions with the Monad occur which result in the emanation of successive pairs of aeons, often in male–female pairings called syzygies.[4] The numbers of these pairings varied from text to text, though some identify their number as being thirty.[5] The aeons as a totality constitute the pleroma, the "region of light". The lowest regions of the pleroma are closest to the darkness, that is, the physical world.[citation needed]
