Tier 2 — Keeper Path

Keeper Curriculum

For those who guard the memory, records, and emotional climate of the Ankhamen House. The Keeper watches the story as it unfolds — and makes sure it is not lost.

Beginning

The Role of the Keeper

A Keeper is not just someone who writes things down. A Keeper:

  • Protects the memories of the House.
  • Helps others remember who they are.
  • Organizes important records so they are never lost.
  • Supports the Nucleus by keeping emotional and historical clarity.
You are ready for the Keeper path when you care about what happens to the story of your family — not just your own life.
Module 1

Records & the House Ledger

The first Keeper skill is learning how to track what matters.

  • Key life events: births, transitions, marriages, major moves.
  • House decisions: important family agreements and changes.
  • Lineage milestones: when someone completes a tier or role.

These can be kept in:

  • A physical Ledger book.
  • A secure digital document in the Temple archive.
  • Both, for redundancy.
Keeper Practice: Choose one place to begin the House Ledger and record at least five key events from the family history.
Module 2

Codex Literacy

The Codex holds the deeper teachings, scrolls, and diagrams of the House. A Keeper learns how to read, reference, and guide others through it.

  • Know where each major Codex lives in the Temple.
  • Understand basic structure: volumes, scrolls, commentary.
  • Be able to point a family member to the right scroll for their question.
Keeper Practice: Read one scroll or section from the Codex and write a short summary in your own words.
Module 3

The Nucleus & Family Atlas

The Keeper helps keep a clear picture of who is in the House and how they connect.

  • Create or maintain a simple Family Atlas: names, relationships, roles.
  • Mark who is in the Nucleus and who orbits around it.
  • Keep track of which generation is stepping into which roles.
Keeper Practice: Draw a basic family map showing three generations and highlight the current Nucleus.
Module 4

Watching the Emotional Climate

A Keeper does not control people’s emotions — but they pay attention to the climate.

  • Notice when tension rises between family members.
  • Pay attention to repeating conflicts and patterns.
  • Keep a neutral, quiet record of what tends to trigger storms.

This record is not for gossip. It is for wisdom.

Keeper Practice: When conflict happens, write what occurred, how people felt, and what might help bring things back into balance.
Module 5

Memory Practices

Without memory, a House becomes scattered. The Keeper protects living memory.

  • Interview elders and record their stories.
  • Ask younger members how they see the family.
  • Keep a “Memory Book” of important sayings, jokes, and moments.
Keeper Practice: Ask one elder to share a memory from their youth and write it in the Memory Book with the date and their name.
Module 6

Supporting Continuity

The Keeper works quietly with the Nucleus and Architects to make sure the House is not only surviving, but moving forward.

  • Note when important plans are made (land, trust, Temple work).
  • Track who has which responsibilities.
  • Help remind others of what has been decided when memory drifts.
Keeper Practice: Choose one ongoing family project and keep a simple timeline of what has been done and what is planned next.
Milestone

Completing the Keeper Tier

You are ready to complete Tier 2 — Keeper when you can:

  • Maintain a House Ledger with key events.
  • Explain the basic layout of the Temple Codex.
  • Show a simple Family Atlas and identify the Nucleus.
