Aeon Flux

The title is based on the Gnostic notion of an Æon – emanations of God – specifically the Valentinian notion of a syzygy, a sexually complementary pair of emanations, here the two main characters. The Gnostic influence is also present in the use of a demiurge in one episode.

In many Gnostic systems, the various emanations of God, who is also known by such names as the One, the Monad, Aion teleos (αἰών τέλεος «The Broadest Aeon»), Bythos («depth or profundity», Greek βυθός), Proarkhe («before the beginning», Greek προαρχή), the Arkhe («the beginning», Greek ἀρχή), are called Aeons. In the different systems these emanations are differently named, classified, and described, but the emanation theory itself is common to all forms of Gnosticism. In the Basilidian Gnosis they are called sonships (υἱότητες huiotetes; sing.: υἱότης huiotes); according to Marcus, they are numbers and sounds; in Valentinianism they form male/female pairs called syzygies (Greek συζυγίαι, from σύζυγοι syzygoi, lit. «yokings together»).

This source of all being is an Aeon in which an inner being dwells, known as Ennoea («thought, intent«, Greek ἔννοια), Charis («grace», Greek χάρις), or Sige («silence», Greek σιγή). These are the primary roots of the Aeons. The split perfect being conceives the second Aeon, Caen («power»^{[citation needed]}), within itself. Along with the male Caen comes the female Aeon, Akhana («love»^{[citation needed]}). Complex hierarchies of Aeons are thus produced, sometimes to the number of thirty. These Aeons belong to the purely ideal, noumenal, intelligible, or supersensible world; they are immaterial, they are hypostatic ideas. Together with the source from which they emanate they form the Pleroma («region of light», Greek πλήρωμα). The lowest regions of the Pleroma are closest to the darkness—that is, the physical world. […]

Aeons bear a number of similarities to Judaeo-Christian angels, including their roles as servants and emanations of God, and their existence as beings of light. In fact, certain Gnostic Angels, such as Armozel, also happen to be Aeons.
