Actus primus is a technical expression used in scholastic philosophy . The Latin word actus means determination, complement, perfection. In every being there are many actualities, which are subordinated. Thus existence supposes essence power supposes existence action supposes faculty. The first actuality actus primus begins a series it supposes Actus purus no other actuality preceding it in the same series, but calls for a further complement, namely, the second actuality actus secundus . But as the same reality may be called actuality when viewed in the light of what precedes, and potentiality when viewed in the light of what follows see actus et potentia , the meaning of the term first actuality may vary according to the view one takes, and the point where the series is made to begin. Primary matter see Sacramental matter and form matter and form is a pure potentiality, and the substantial form is its first determination, its first actuality. The complete substance constituted by these two principles receives further determinations, which are, in that respect, second actualities. Yet these may also be conceived as first actualities. Thus the extensive quantity of a substance is a first actuality when compared to the shape. Power is a first actuality when compared to action. And this is the most frequent application of the terms actus primus and actus secundus . The former is the faculty the latter, the exercise or function. To see in actu primo simply means to have the sense of vision to see in actu secundo is to actually perform acts of vision. The modern distinction of potential and kinetic energy might serve as another illustration the loaded gun, or the engine with steam buildup, represent first actualities the bullet speeding to the mark, the engine flying over the rails, represent second actualities.

Thomism Actus Purus is a term employed in Scholasticism scholastic philosophy to express the absolute perfection of God . It literally means, pure act. Created beings have potentiality that is not actuality, imperfections as well as perfection. Only God is simultaneously all that He can be, infinitely real and infinitely perfect I am who I am Book of Exodus Exodus 3 14 . His attributes or His operations, are really identical with His essence , and His essence includes essentially His existence . In created beings, the state of potentiality precedes that of actuality before being realized, a perfection must be capable of realization. But, absolutely speaking, actuality precedes potentiality. For in order to change, a thing must be acted upon, or actualized change and potentiality presuppose, therefore, a being which is Actus primus in actu . This actuality, if mixed with Potentiality and actuality potentiality , presupposes another Actus et potentia actuality , and so on, until we reach the Actus Purus . According to Thomas Aquinas a thing which requires completion by another is said to be in potency to that other realization of potency is called actuality. The universe is conceived of as a series of things arranged in an ascending order, or potency and act at once crowned and created by God, who alone is pure act. God is changeless because change means passage from potency to act, and so he is without beginning and end, since these demand change. Matter and form are necessary to the understanding of change, for change requires the union of that which becomes and that which it becomes. Matter is the first & form the second. All physical things are composed of matter and form. The difference between a thing as form or character and the actual existence of it is denoted by the terms essence and being or existence . It is only in God that there is no distinction between the two. Both pairs matter & form and essence & being are special cases of potency and act. They are ... more details
