INTRODUCTION

The following pages are selected portions of another report on this website, The False Gospel in
the Stars, which is an expose of the astrological signs that will be used to validate the
credentials of the Antichrist and False Prophet. Many projections concerning the identities of
these personages are often disinformation calculated to deceive. Adding to the general
ignorance, there is little information coming forth in the way of exposure of the Merovingian
dynasty as the Satanic bloodline from which the Antichrist and False Prophet will come.
Whatever lipservice is paid to this subject is usually accompanied by enough misinformation to
keep the masses of Christians ignorant of the truth.

Yet the Bible presents specific evidence concerning the identities of the Antichrist and False
Prophet, the Mark of the Beast, Mystery Babylon the Great and other entities that will be
imperative for God’s elect to recognize during the Tribulation Period. We believe that New
Agers already know the identity of the False Christ, the False Prophet and various other
Tribulation counterfeits through their study of astrology, as interpreted by a large body of occult
tradition and the current propaganda proliferating through New Age publications. There is no
reason that Christians, given the same information available to New Agers, and aided by a right
understanding of Scripture, cannot discern and rightly interpret this end-time enigma. The
alternative is to be at the mercy of a massive disinformation campaign that is being conducted
within the Christian community by the same New Age network which is planning the
destruction of Christianity and return of mankind to the paganism of the ancient world.

THE NEPHILIM

The term “Merovingian” is said to derive from Merovee who was King of the Franks from 447-
458 A.D. Despite recent claims that the Merovingian Franks were sired by Jesus Christ and
Mary Magdalene, and are therefore “divine,” the legend of King Merovee conceals the true
origins of the Merovingian race in remote antiquity. According to the legend, as explained in
Bloodline of the Holy Grail, Merovee had two fathers, King Clodion and a strange “beast of the
sea.”

“Despite the carefully listed genealogies of his time, the heritage of Meroveus
was strangely obscured in the monastic annals. Although the rightful son of
Clodion, he was nonetheless said by the historian Priscus to have been sired by an
arcane sea creature, the Bistea Neptunis...
“The Sicambrian Franks, from whose female line the Merovingians emerged
were associated with Grecian Arcadia before migrating to the Rhineland. As we
have seen, they called themselves the Newmage —‘People of the New Covenant’,
 have seen, they called themselves the Newmage —‘People of the New Covenant’,
just as the Essenes of Qumran had once been known. It was the Arcadian legacy
that was responsible for the mysterious sea beast — the Bistea Neptunis — as
symbolically defined in the Merovingian ancestry. The relevant sea-lord was King
Pallas, a god of old Arcadia. His predecessor was the great Oceanus. The immortal
sea-lord was said to be ‘'ever-incarnate in a dynasty of ancient kings’ whose
symbol was a fish - as was the traditional symbol of Jesus.” (Laurence Gardner,
Bloodline of the Holy Grail, pp. 166, 175)

The Bistea Neptunis was worshipped in classical antiquity as the Roman god, Neptune, and as
Poseidon in Greek mythology. Neptune was the mythological god of the sea who is said to have
founded Atlantis, which is the pagan version of the pre-flood civilization which God judged in
Genesis 7. Revelation 13:1, which identifies the Antichrist systen as “the beast that rises out of
the sea,” becomes crystal clear upon discovery that a demonic bloodline which exists today that
was originally sired by a mysterious “sea beast”—the Bistea Neptunis.

“And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea,
having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his
heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard,
and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and
the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.” (Rev. 13:1-2)

“Meroveus” derives from the French words “mer” meaning “sea” and “vere” meaning
“werewolf” or “dragon.” The book of Revelation informs us the dragon is “the Devil, and
Satan”:

“And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon;
and the dragon fought and his angels... And the great dragon was cast out, that old
serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast
out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.” (Rev. 12:9)

Bloodline of the Holy Grail, Holy Blood, Holy Grail and The Da Vinci Code were popular
books marketed for mass consumption and, as such, were propaganda tools which concealed the
true origins of the Merovingian race. For their esoteric allusion to the Merovingians’ legendary
progenitor, King Merovee, having been sired by a mysterious “beast of the sea” is a claim of
literal Satanic descent.

The demonic origins and history of the Merovingian Dynasty—also known as the Dragon
Dynasty in honor the great red dragon of of Revelation 12 and 13—are revealed in less
available insider sources such as Gardner’s Realm of the Ring Lords and “Kenneth Grant and
the Merovingian Mythos” published by DragonKey Press.

“...The ancient people of the Tuatha De Danann...were the supernatural tribe of

the pre-Achaean agricultural goddess Danae of Argos, or perhaps of the Aegean
mother-goddess, Danu. But their true name rendered in its older form was Tuadhe
d’Anu. As such, they were the people (or tribe) of Anu, the great sky god of the
Anunnaki.” (Gardner, Realm of the Ring Lords: The Myths and Magic of the Grail
Quest)

“The Nephilim were banished to the center of the earth for disobeying God by
mating with the daughters of men and teaching them the ‘forbidden’ arts. In this
publication the Nephilim have been identified as the Fathers of the
Merovingians...
“...the Merovingian race was sired by a water beast known as the Quinotaur.
This Quinotaur took the form of a sea-bull. Crowley’s personal seal was of a sea
goat. Grant, writing of Crowley’s Seal of the Beast, says: ‘The beast is the sea-goat
or amphibious monster identical with Cthulhu, the Quinotaure or Bull of the Deep.’
Grant writes as a footnote; ‘The waters under the earth; home of the ‘ancestors’ or
subconscious atavisms of the race.’ Is this a reference to the race of the Grail?”
(“Kenneth Grant and the Merovingian Mythos”)
 (“Kenneth Grant and the Merovingian Mythos”)

Merovingian claims of angelic ancestry may seem too bizarre to be true, however, as mentioned
above, such a race of demonic origin is found in Scripture:

“And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and
daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men
that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the
LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet
his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in
those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the
daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty
men which were of old, men of renown. And GOD saw that the wickedness of
man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart
was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the
earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom
I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping
thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. But Noah
found grace in the eyes of the LORD.” - Gen. 6:1-7

The Hebrew word nephiyl is properly translated fallen ones and refers to the offspring of fallen
angels who mated with human women on Mount Hermon in the land of Canaan. It may be that
“after that” in Gen. 6:4 refers to a second invasion of fallen angels after the flood, which would
explain why the Israelites found giants (Nephilim) in Canaan upon entry into the Promised
Land: “And there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come of the Nephilim; and we
were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.'” (Num. 13:33, Hebrew
Masoretic Text, Hebrew-English JPS 1917 Ed.)

“Some commentators have speculated that the Nephilim of Numbers 13 belonged

to a second eruption of fallen angels, since the earlier Nephilim had been destroyed
in the Flood. And they see an allusion to this in Genesis 6:4, where it states that
‘there were Nephilim in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons
of God came in unto the daughters of men.’ Could it be that the ‘after that’ was a
reference to the Nephilim found in Canaan during the Israelite entry into the land?
If so, it could explain why the Lord commanded the total extermination of the
Canaanites, as He had earlier ordered the near annihilation of the human race.”
(“Sons of God, Daughters of Men”)

Sodom and Gomorrah were Canaanite settlements that practiced cult prostitution in conjunction
with their fertility rites. Jude 7 suggests that the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrha were so
depraved that fornication with angels was practiced, as the record of Genesis 19 also attests.

“And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he
hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great
day. Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner,
giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth
for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.” (Jude 6-7)

“And there came two angels to Sodom at even; and Lot sat in the gate of Sodom:
and Lot seeing them rose up to meet them; and he bowed himself with his face
toward the ground; And he said, Behold now, my lords, turn in, I pray you, into
your servant's house, and tarry all night, and wash your feet, and ye shall rise up
early, and go on your ways. And they said, Nay; but we will abide in the street all
night. And he pressed upon them greatly; and they turned in unto him, and entered
into his house; and he made them a feast, and did bake unleavened bread, and they
did eat. But before they lay down, the men of the city, even the men of Sodom,
compassed the house round, both old and young, all the people from every quarter:
And they called unto Lot, and said unto him, Where are the men which came in to
thee this night? bring them out unto us, that we may know them.” (Gen. 19:1-5)
The Canaanite territory of northern Israel was later occupied by the tribe of Dan, whose worship
of Baal/Pan involved such fertility rites at Mount Hermon, also called Mount Sion. The
Merovingians are the offspring of the tribe of Dan which intermarried with the Canaanite
Tuatha De Danann, also known as the Dragon Lords of Anu because they were the offspring of
the fallen angels (Anunnaki).

“Through the work of Sir Laurence Gardener we discover that Sumaire in the
old Irish language means Dragon. He writes: ‘It is also reckoned that the
subsequent culture of the region, phonetically called Sumerian (pronounced
‘Shumerian’) was actually Sidhemurian (Shee-murian). This case is now
considerable since the early Ring Lords of Scythia (the Tuatha De Danaan king
tribe) were actually called the ‘Sumaire’.’
“During the days of the Biblical Great Exodus, a group separated from Moses
and went to the North. This group was the Tribe of Dann. Millions went and
settled in the European and Scandinavian areas. From there they spread out to
other parts of the world... conquering the countries, spreading their Anunnaki
seed and replacing the conquered people’s traditions with their own serpent
culture.” (“The Tribe of Dann and the Lost Tribe of Israel”)

The Tribe of Dann said to have “separated from Moses" may have been among the mixed
multitude that left Egypt with the Israelites (Exodus 12:38) and "fell a lusting" in Numbers
11:4. In these verses, the term “mixed multitude” may, in fact, describe the hybrid genetic
composition of this group.

“The Nephilim were the fallen angels, cast out of heaven after rebelling against
God. The word Nephal means, ‘to fall’ and means ‘the fallen one.’ Their leader
was also a fallen Son of God, Lucifer (Satan). The Nephilim came from a class of
angels called ‘the watchers’, and not all watchers fell. The souls derived from the
union of the Nephilim and mortal women were called the ‘mixed multitude’...”
(The Ark of Millions of Years, p. 333)

When God dispersed the northern tribes of Israel for their wickedness, the tribe of Dan migrated
to Greece, and later to France and the British Isles where they established pagan priesthoods
and royal dynasties of the demonic bloodline:

“The Tuatha De Danann (or Dragon Lords of Anu)...[before settling in Ireland

(from about 800 B.C.)]...were the...Black Sea princes of Scythia (now Ukrane).
Like the original dynastic Pharaohs, they traced their descent from the great
Pendragons of Mesopotamia; from them sprang the kingly lines of the Irish
Bruithnigh and the Picts of Scotland’s Caledonia. In Wales they founded the Royal
House of Gwynedd, while in Cornwall in the southwest of England, they were the
sacred gentry known as Pict-Sidhe.
“So, from a single caste of the original Blood Royal - whether known as the
Sangréal, the Albi-gens or the Ring Lords - we discover many of the descriptive
terms which sit at the very heart of popular folklore. For here, in this one noble
race, we have the ‘elves’, ‘fairies’ and ‘pixies’ - not beguiling little folk, but
distinguished Kings and Queens of the Dragon succession.” (Gardner, In the Realm
of the Ring Lords, Pt. 1)

In ‘The Psalter of Cashel’ it states that: ‘The Tuatha de Danaan’ ruled in Ireland
for about two centuries, and were highly skilled in architecture and other arts from
their long residence in Greece.’ The Tuatha de Danaan were the descendants of
Danaus, the son of Belus, who went with his fifty daughters to Argos, the home of
his ancestrous Io. In Irish legends the Tuatha de Danaan, who were considered to
be demi-gods,...were said to have possessed a... Grail-like vessel... These teachers
of wisdom...were the founders of the Druidic priesthood.” (Van Buren, The Sign of
the Dove, pp. 141-2)

The progenitors of the Tuatha De Danaan, the Dragon Lords of Anu (Anunnaki), still
communicate with mankind, however, since the arrival and ascendance of Christianity, they
 communicate with mankind, however, since the arrival and ascendance of Christianity, they
must now resort to various disguises to camouflage their true identity. Among their myriad
guises are apparitions of Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary, gods and goddesses of ancient cultures,
angels, dead saints or famous people, extraterrestrials — whatever life form is appropriate to
obtain acceptance and a foothold in a given culture or subculture:

“Though communications between the space races and our own continued, they
were severely curtailed and went underground... The DANAAN (a collective
convention-name to avoid confusion), always jealous of their technology and
secrets, were demonized by the various religions that guarded the traditions
established by them long ago, since corrupted by man through ignorance.
“From active persecution by the Church of contactees between their race and
ours in the Dark Ages, man progressed to the point that he dealt with the problem
through ridicule or derision by Science instead, in time ascribing the space races to
personifications of psychological projections (archetypes), bedtime fables, and
sanitized surrogates such as fairies, the boogeyman and Santa Claus...
“When they interact with man, it is through their dreams and in riddles...and a
variety of identical gods in all cultures, seeming to prefer inspiring from behind the
scenes to any kind of direct communication. When overt contact is necessary, they
assume the guise of the Virgin Mary, the Corn Mother, angels, kachinas, or
whatever is appropriate for that culture. There is a strong circumstantial evidence
for this race’s continual intervention on a number of levels in man’s development
from the crudely physical to the artistic, scientific and esoteric.
“They cover their tracks with hypnosis and probably drugs or some other high
technology, to cloud the memories of their visitants. Their rituals and ways of life
derive from a worship of the harmony of nature and the mastery of the mind of
man over it.
“There has never been a time in mans’ history that these people were absent
and nothing occurring in today’s UFO and abduction phenomena has not been
recorded throughout. The only difference today is that there is much more
evidence of the encounters, and contact is becoming increasingly visible. They
mythical record the world over speaks of is a Golden Age in which man and the
gods (angels) freely and openly interacted, and all such records have prophesied
that a time would come when a new Golden Age would occur, all former secrets
being revealed.” (“History of the Red-Haired Race: Tuatha de Danaan”)

THE CULT OF THE BLACK VIRGIN

During the first century A.D., Alexandria, Egypt was a veritable hotbed of mystical activity, a
crucible in which, according to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, "Judaic, Mithraic, Zoroastrian,
Pythagorean, Hermetic, and neo-Platonic doctrines suffused the air and combined with
innumerable others." (31:123) It was in the early centuries of the Christian era that the ancient
worship of the Mother Goddess was introduced to Christianity by Jews who had fled Israel and
embraced Alexandrian Neo-Platonism, which is just a rehash of Greek paganism. "The Neo-
Platonists are Greek philosophers who lived long enough after Plato to have lost the name of
Platonists as far as modern scholars are concerned (although they were intellectual disciples of
Plato and considered themselves Platonists)." (942:72)

In ancient times, mankind worshipped the hosts of heaven, believing them to be gods and
goddesses who ruled the pre-flood civilization of Atlantis. Ancient man believed that the
constellation Virgo was the Great Mother Goddess who ruled over a Golden Age called
Lemuria, which preceded Atlantis. This astrological tradition was transmitted to successive
pagan cultures through the ages of mankind. "Some of the mythological representations of
Virgo are Nana, Eve, Istar, Demeter, Hecate, Themis, Hera, Astraea, Diana, Cybele, Isis,
Fortuna, Erigone, Sibylla and the Virgin Mother. All representations of the Great Mother in
some form. She who existed before the masculine gods of ancient and classical mythology."
(Stories of the Constellations: The Legend of Virgo : 905)

The Greek adaptation of Virgo, was Demeter, whose daughter Kore was abducted by Pluto, the
god of the underworld. Kore would remain the dark lord's queen and her name would no longer
god of the underworld. Kore would remain the dark lord's queen and her name would no longer
be Kore, the maiden, but Persephone, "she who is to be feared". The Alexandrian Jews who
worshipped the Greek goddess, Kore, managed to convert their pagan goddess worship into a
theologically respectable tradition called Gnosticism by giving the goddess the trappings of
Christianity. Although they worshipped her as the Holy Virgin, "virginity" has an altogether
different connotation to Gnostics than it does to Christians.

"Another important feature of the Gnostic tradition of Epiphany is that it is really a

feminine holiday. St. Clement of Alexandria (c. 194) mentioned that the followers
of the Gnostic master Basilides feasted on the day of the Baptism and kept a long
vigil before it. Epiphanius (305-402) gave us a detailed description of how the
Alexandrian Gnostics celebrated the Epiphany. They did this in the sanctuary of the
Maiden Goddess Kore whom they equated with the image of the Holy Virgin. At
midnight they descended with torches into the crypt of the temple and brought the
wooden statue of Kore forth in procession. The Maiden was represented naked and
sitting, with crosses marked on her brow, her hands and her knees. The statue was
carried seven times around the central shrine and was then retired to the crypt once
more. The Gnostics said that on this day, Kore, the Virgin, gave birth to the divine
principle known as the Christ. It is from the feminine intuitive consciousness and
feeling nature that the messianic power, of individuated consciousness is born. Thus
the human nature of Jesus or Everyman is transformed into divine and spiritual
nature by the holy female power, the Holy Spirit, in the initiation rite of baptism."
(Gnostic Liturgical Calendar: 834)

It is important to note that the heretic, Basilides, was an Gnostic Jew of Alexandria, as was his
contemporary, the arch heretic Valentinus.

It was in the Gnostic culture of Alexandria that the Mother Goddess evolved into Mary
Magdalene. Ean Begg wrote in The Cult of the Black Virgin that "...many of the finest Gnostic
writings are of Alexandrian inspiration or origin. Alexandria is also the main source of Gnostic
works linking Jesus with Mary Magdalene. According to this tradition it was through the
Magdalen, rather than through Peter and the male apostles, that Jesus transmitted his secret
doctrine." (272:128) In their endeavors to relocate the center of Christianity in Alexandria,
Egypt, the Gnostics misrepresent Mary Magdalene as a native of the Magdolum in Egypt,
which they associate with Migdol:

"There is no necessity to endeavor to crowbar [Mary Magdalene] into a Galilean

setting, for there are other intriguing alternatives for her place of origin: although
there was no ‘Magdala’ in Judea in her day, there was a Magdolum in Egypt - just
across the border - which was probably the Migdol mentioned in Ezekiel. There
was a large and flourishing Jewish community in Egypt at that time, which was
particularly centered on the great sea port of Alexandria, a seething cosmopolitan
melting pot of many races, nationalities and religions and perhaps where the Holy
Family had fled to escape the depredations of Herod’s men." (Mary Magdalene
Files: 843)

There is no mention of Migdol in the book of Ezekiel, however the prophet Jeremiah reproved
the apostate Jews who took up residence in Migdol, in Egypt, for disobeying the Lord who had
commanded them to go with their countrymen to Babylon. The prophet Jeremiah specifically
admonished the Jews in Egypt for their worship of the Mother Goddess:

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land
of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the
country of Pathros, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye
have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of
Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein,
Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in
that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not,
neither they, ye, nor your fathers...
 Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other
gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that
dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying, As for the word
that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto
thee. But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth,
to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her,
as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of
Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were
well, and saw no evil. But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven,
and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been
consumed by the sword and by the famine. And when we burned incense to the
queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes
to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? - Jer. 44:1-
3,15-19

Here it is apparent that the worship of the Mother Goddess, Virgo, under the appellation of Isis,
spread from Egypt into Israel and from Israel to the centers of the Roman Empire:

"The cult of Isis was widespread in the Egypt of the dynastic period. From Egypt it
spread northwards to Phoenicia, Syria and Palestine; to Asia Minor; to Cyprus,
Rhodes, Crete, Samos and other islands in the Aegean; to many parts of mainland
Greece - Corinth, Argos and Thessaly amongst them; to Malta and Sicily; and,
finally, to Rome. In the first century BC, Isis was perhaps the most popular goddess
in the Eternal City, from which her cult spread to the furthest limits of the Roman
Empire, including Britain: her only rival was Mithras. - (Star Lore : 920)

In fact, the worship of the Virgin Mary in the Roman Catholic Church, along with the entire
body of Catholic tradition, can be traced to the worship of Isis in Egypt. {See: Mystery
Babylon the Great: Catholic or Jewish?}

"Immaculate is our Lady Isis...the very terms applied afterwards to that personage
(the Virgin Mary) who succeeded to her form, titles, symbols, rites, and
ceremonies... Thus, her devotees carried into the new priesthood the former badges
of their profession, the obligation to celibacy, the tonsure, and the surplice,
omitting, unfortunately, the frequent ablutions prescribed by the ancient creed. The
'Black Virgins', so highly reverenced in certain French cathedrals...proved, when at
last critically examined, basalt figures of Isis!'" (Isis, the Black Virgin: 921)

In 412 A.D., Cyril of Alexandria became the Bishop of Alexandria. In Isis Unveiled, H.P.
Blavatsky wrote: "...Cyril, the Bishop of Alexandria, had openly embraced the cause of Isis, the
Egyptian goddess, and had anthropomorphized her into Mary, the mother of God..." (195:41,
Vol.II) During his bishopric, Cyril wrote passionately and voluminously against the Nestorian
heresy, and was largely instrumental in having it condemned at the Council of Ephesus in 431.

The Third Ecumenical Council was held at Ephesus in Greece, whose philosophy and culture
were, like Egypt, derived from the occult traditions of the pre-Flood civilization. The Council
of Ephesus condemned the Nestorian heresy but approved the veneration of the Virgin Mary as
"Theotokos" ---the God-Bearer or Mother of God. Nestorius and the Nestorians were exiled to
the Persian Empire and become the Assyrian Orthodox Church of the East. However, in what
appears to have been a classic dialectical operation, the path had been cleared for Mary to be
transformed from the "Mother of God" to a deity in the image of the Mother Goddess, Isis, who
shared in the divinity of her son, Horus.

In her article on Mariology, Keri Mills posited that the issue driving the great Nestorian
controversy was really the doctrine of Mary rather than the doctrine of Christ:

"Catholics claim that no serious question was raised about Mary's sinlessness after
the Council of Ephesus in AD 431 which declared Mary to be 'God bearer, Mother
of God'. What is not explained is the reason why no questions (according to the
RCC) were raised after the council. It is clearly documented that Nestorius, bishop
 RCC) were raised after the council. It is clearly documented that Nestorius, bishop
of Constantinople, was declared a heretic and exiled because he rejected the
popular title given to Mary (Mother of God). The church would claim that
Nestorius made it appear, in his emphasis on the reality of the humanity of Jesus,
that Christ was two persons or 'two sons' the son of Mary and the son of God.
Interestingly, the writings of Ignatius, a disciple of the apostle John and bishop of
Antioch, declared a similar thought, 'Mary is presented as Mother of Christ
according to his human nature, as the heavenly Father is his Father according to his
divine nature (To the Ephesians)', with the same purpose to refute heretical
thinking, and yet he is not declared a heretic. Nestorius was declared a heretic
based on power politics and his denial of Mary as God-bearer, not on
Christology. Nestorius was refuting heretical ideas that Christ was not flesh, only
deity. In his autobiography, he insisted that he did not oppose the title 'God-bearer'
because he denied the Godhead of Christ, but rather to distinguish that Jesus was a
genuine human being born with a body and soul. He insisted that calling Mary
'God-bearer, Mother of God' was to declare that God could be born of a woman.
Parents pre-exist their children, yet Mary a mortal woman could not pre-exist God;
in fact the paradox remains clear to this day that Jesus the son of Mary pre-existed
Mary. Yet with the reign of Constantine, the church had gained power, and so no
serious questions would be raised outwardly, without the backing of the majority,
once that power had been exercised on Nestorius." (Mariology: 849)

Even the trappings of monasticism that found a home in Roman Catholicism originated in the
asceticism that was prevalent in Egypt, dating back to Hermes Trismegestis. Hermes or Thoth, a
demi-god from the pre-flood civilization of Atlantis, became the prototype of the 'hermit' monk.
The Council of Nicea in 321 A.D. may have been another dialectical operation. There St.
Athanasius (296-373 AD), as Bishop of Alexandria, valiantly combated the Arian heresy which
challenged the divinity of Jesus Christ. However, Athanasius also used that council as an
opportunity to incorporate in the canons of the Church the requirement of celibacy for Christian
leaders. (Catholic Encyclopedia: 548) Following his victory over the heresiarch Arius and the
Arians, Athanasius traveled throughout Europe promoting monasticism and asceticism. He is
credited with introducing monasticism specifically to the Romans and Germans.

In the Gnostic theology of Athanasius, only ascetics were considered the Bride of Christ, a
pernicious teaching which influenced many devout Christians to seek Christ in monasteries and
convents. Although the religious orders had the outward appearance of spiritual piety, they were
often, however, fronts for occult as well as homosexual/lesbian activity. That asceticism,
enforced celibacy and monastic life have borne evil fruit throughout the centuries is evident in
the rampant sexual perversion of the Roman Catholic priesthood and hierarchy.

It was through the establishment of monasteries that the Merovingian Jews, whose forefathers
were the Alexandrian Gnostics, began to infiltrate and mold the theology and practices of the
Roman Catholic Church. Many of the popes were Merovingian monks who forced masses of
European Jews to convert to Roman Catholicism., with the result that the Church incorporated
traditions from both Judaism, the Talmud and the Kabbalah. (See: Mystery Babylon the Great:
Catholic or Jewish?) We believe it will be from the monastic movement that the False Prophet,
a Merovingian, will rise to prominence and power as the Antichrist's right hand man.

THE PRIEURÉ DE SION

In the thoroughly pagan milieu of Alexandria, an Egyptian priest and magus by the name of
Ormesius founded the monastic Society of Ormus. The members of this society included the
Therapeutae of Alexandria and the Essenes of Qumran—apostate Jews who had embraced the
Neo-Platonist doctrine of the lost continent of Atlantis. Gnostics allege that Ormesius was a
convert of St. Mark, however, such conversions are a common modus operandi of infiltrators
with hidden agendas. As a false convert, Ormesius would synthesize Christianity with the
paganism of Alexandria, Egypt and establish the monastic society which was the original
"Order of the Rosy Cross":
 "According to Baron de Westerode, the founder of the Rosicrucians was one
Ormesius, who had been converted by St. Mark, at Alexandria, in A.D. 46. He
purified the Egyptian Rites, and reconciled them with Christianity, carrying his
disciples with him, and founded the Society of ORMUS, or of the Light, each
member wearing a red cross. To this society the Essenes and Therapeutae joined
themselves, and conserved the Masonic Secrets." (Antiquities of the Illuminati , Part
3: 636)

The Society of Ormus would eventually relocate to Italy and, in 1070 A.D., move to territory in
France owned by Godfroi de Bouillon, the first Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion. There
Ormus changed its name to the "Ordre de Sion" and the monks were given a tract of land
owned by one Bernard of Clairvaux. St. Bernard, who was the founder of the Cistercian Order
of monks, also wrote of the Rule of the Templars. According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, the
Society of Ormus, which became the Ordre de Sion, then became the Prieuré de Sion.

"The 'Prieuré documents' imply that...an abbey existed by 1100 and housed an
order of the...name [Ordre de Sion] which may have been formed earlier... It is
known that in 1070, twenty-nine years before the First Crusade, a specific band of
monks from Calabria in southern Italy arrived in the vicinity of the Ardennes
Forrest, part of Godfroi de Bouillon's domains. According to Gérard de Sède this
band of monks was led by an individual called Ursus—a name the 'Prieuré
documents' consistently associate with the Merovingian bloodline... [A]t Orval, not
far from Stenay, where Dagobert II had been assassinated some five hundred years
earlier...an abbey was established to house the monks... By 1108 they had
mysteriously disappeared... Orval, by 1131, had become one of the fiefs owned by
Saint Bernard...
"In 1188 the Ordre de Sion is...said to have modified its name, adopting the one
which has allegedly obtained to the present—the Prieuré de Sion. As a kind of
subtitle it is said to have adopted the curious name 'Ormus.' This subtitle was
supposedly used until 1306—a year before the arrest of the French Templars. The
device for 'Ormus'...involves a kind of acrostic or anagram which combines a
number of key words and symbols. Ours means 'bear' in French—Ursus in Latin,
an echo, as subsequently became apparent, of Dagobert II and the Merovingian
dynasty. Orme is French for 'elm.' Or, of course, is 'gold.' And the M that forms the
frame enclosing the other letters is not only an M but also the astrological sign for
Virgo—connoting, in the language of medieval iconography, Notre Dame...
""...mysterious Abbey of Orval...[is] where our research suggested the Prieuré de
Sion may have had its inception." (31:113,122)

The signature of the Prieuré de Sion incorporated the sign of Virgo [ ] with the four letters
ORUS, which stood for Horus, in the form of a cross:

"...consider the device of the Priory of SION, namely, the name Ormus, and its
glyph. The glyph is as follows:
OR US.
[note, for older browsers: this is OR + Virgo Sign + US, the Virgo Sign in the standard font,
"Wingdings"]
"What is this? Ormus, that is, Virgo and ORUS. What is ORUS? ORUS is a
corrupted form of Horus, and is used in Crowley's 5th Degree Ritual for the OTO.
His Rose-Croix ritual includes an analysis of the Keyword, much like in the
Golden Dawn Adeptus Minor Ceremony, only IAO stands not for ISIS, APOPHIS,
and OSIRIS, but IACCHUS, ASI, and ORUS." ( 937)

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Ormus evolved into the Order of the Prieuré de Sion of
the Rosy Cross: "One is intended to see in Ormus the origins of the so-called Rose-Croix, or
Rosicrucians. And in 1188 the Prieuré de Sion is said to have adopted a second subtitle in
addition to Ormus. It is said to have called itself L'Ordre de la Rose-Croix Veritas...
Ormus...[was] the name allegedly adopted by the Prieuré de Sion between 1188 and 1307." -

Charles Nodier, Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion from 1801-1884, averred that this secret
order presided over a global network of secret societies: "There are a great many secret
societies in operation, Nodier declares. But there is one, he adds, that takes precedence over all
others, that in fact presides over all others. According to Nodier this 'supreme' secret society is
called the Philadelphes. At the same time, however, he speaks of 'the oath which forbids me to
make them known under their social name.' Nevertheless there is a hint of Sion..." ( 31:152)

In 1099, the Merovingian Jews in collusion with Pope Urban II, also a Merovingian, launched
the First Crusade. An article titled The Merovingian Infiltration of the Christian World Through
Monasticism confirms what we have long suspected, that Urban was not the first Merovingian
pope, but the 6th in a succession of French Merovingian popes beginning in 999 A.D.

“1088: Urban II, French Prior of Cluny (Reformed Benedictines) becomes the pope.
Urban was of the 'Eudes' family, not only the name of the King of the Franks,
Eudes, who ruled 888 to 898 and considered one of the antecedent kings of the
Capetian House of France, but also the name of the Royal Capetian line of
Burgundy, great grandson of Hugh Capet, Eudes I the RED of Burgundy who
acceded 1079, NINE years before Urban (Eudes) became pope. And Eudes the Red
acceded in that specific year because his brother, Hugh I of Burgundy, had
abdicated to become the Prior of Cluny! Now something is very amiss here ! Is
this just coincidence? Both were sons of Henry of Burgundy who married Sibylle
of Barcelona. Henry was son of Robert I of Burgundy, who was the son of Hugh
Capet. Barcelona, home of their mother, was part of the Spanish March connected
to Septimania and, here too, the Duke of Aquitaine in 1012 was Eudes of Aquitaine
! And Aquitaine and Septimania are extremely significant :

“It happens that Septimania (Languedoc) is exactly where the Jesus-Magdalene

heresy flourished, and where there was a large population of Cathar Jews who
were given independent status by Pepin, Carolingian King. Thence their own kings
ruled as: 'seed of the Royal House of David', each acknowledged as 'King of the
Jews', most famous of whom was Guillem de Gellone, the Prince of Orange.
Confusing this issue, these kings also claimed to be of Merovingian descent ; but
not confusing when one realizes that Jesus was of the House of David and Mary
Magdalene was from the town Magdala, 4 miles from Tiberius, founded by Herod
Antipas, who was an Edomite descendant of Esau with whom Benjaminites
married. Additionally, Absolom, David’s son, who pulled a coup d’etat on his own
father in an attempt to take his throne, had a rebel following who would have
joined the Benjaminite cause. Absalom died when his long hair got caught in
branches in the forest during the Coup. (2 Sam:18:9) And the Merovingians, first
Dynasty of French kings, were the Long Haired Kings!!

“The details of the separate kingdom of Septimania were erased from history
books; but the descendant bloodlines were apparently the 'heretical Royal
Bloodlines' as : Dukes of Aquitaine, Dukes of Lorraine, Dukes of Guise; Counts of
Barcelona, Counts of Toulouse, Counts of Auvergne; Counts of Razes. (HBHB, pp
368-371) And it was precisely a Duke of Aquitaine who founded Cluny! Thus,
Septimania now becomes extremely important, for now Urban II, descendant of
the Eudes of Septimania and Cluny Prior, is the pope who will call the first
Crusades resulting in the crowning of a direct lineal descendant of Guillem de
Gellone, named Godfroi de Bouillon, Duke of Lorraine, as King of Jerusalem!
Aquitaine is so-named on maps of Second Century Roman Empire and comprised
then, the whole area from Languedoc, South France, to Poitou and Anjou.
Septimania was the area that was later known as the Languedoc.”

The pretext for the First Crusade—recovery of the Temple treasures and sacred
sites—concealed the real motive of the Merovingians, which was to rebuild the ancient Temple
of Solomon. In Chapter XXX, “Knight Kadosh” of Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike wrote of
the Crusader Knights of the Temple:
the Crusader Knights of the Temple:

"In 1118, nine Knights Crusaders in the East, among whom were Geoffroi de
Saint-Omer and Hugues de Payens, consecrated themselves to religion, and took an
oath between the hands of the Patriarch of Constantinople, a See always secretly or
openly hostile to that of Rome from the time of Photius. The avowed objective of
the Templars was to protect the Christians who came to visit the Holy Places: their
secret object was the re-building of the Temple of Solomon on the model
prophesied by Ezekiel.
"This re-building, formally predicted by the Judaizing Mystics of the earlier
ages, had become the secret dream of the Patriarchs of the Orient. The Temple of
Solomon, re-built and consecrated to the Catholic worship would become, in effect,
the Metropolis of the Universe; the East would prevail over the West, and the
Patriarchs of Constantinople would possess themselves of the Papal power.
"The Templars, or Poor Fellow-Soldiery of the Holy House of the Temple
intended to be rebuilt, took as their models, in the Bible, the Warrior-Masons of
Zorobabel, who worked, holding the sword in one hand and the trowel in the other.
Therefore it was that the Sword and the Trowell were the insignia of the Templars,
who subsequently, as will be seen, concealed themselves under the name of
Brethren Masons. [This name, Freres Macons in the French, adopted by way of
secret reference to the Builders of the Second Temple, was corrupted in English
into Free-Masons, as Pythagore de Crotone was into Peter Gower of Groton in
England. Khairum or Khur-um, (a name mis-rendered into Hiram) from an artificer
in brass and other metals, became the Chief Builder of the Haikal Kadosh, the Holy
House, of the Temple,... and the words Bonai and Banaim yet appear in the
Masonic Degrees, meaning Builder and Builders.]
"The trowel of the Templars is quadruple, and the triangular plates of it are
arranged in the form of a cross, making the Kabalistic pantacle known by the name
of the Cross of the East. The Knight of the East, and the Knight of the East and
West, have in their titles secret allusions of whom they were at first the
successors."

A secondary objective of the Knights Templar may have been to deposit the Merovingian "Holy
Grail" cache at Jerusalem. These artifacts will probably be "discovered" in the future as "proof"
of Merovingian claims of their "divine" blood. In The Second Messiah, authors Christopher
Knight and Robert Lomas identify the Merovingian families which conspired with the
Merovingian pope—truly a Jewish fifth column within the Catholic Church—to recapture the
Holy Land:

"The picture that was emerging was of a group of European noble families,
descended from the Jewish lines of David and Aaron, who had escaped from
Jerusalem shortly before, or possible even just after, the fall of the Temple. They
had passed down the knowledge of the artifacts concealed within the Temple to a
chosen son...of each family. Some of the families involved were the Counts of
Champagne, Lords of Gisors, Lords of Payen, Counts of Fontaine, Counts of
Anjou, de Bouillon, St. Clairs of Roslin, Brienne, Joinville, Chaumont, St Clair de
Gisor, St Clair de Neg and the Hapsburgs...
"By 1095, the members of the Rex Deus families group were almost certainly
fully Christianised, yet each of them must have had at least one male member who
held the traditional history of their high-born Jewish roots close to his heart. No
doubt they saw themselves as 'super-Christians', descendants of the very first
Church, and privy to the greatest secret this side of heaven. They were a silent elite
— 'the kings of God'.
"Indeed, the history books record that [Pope Urban II's] leadership marked the
papacy's assumption of the leadership of Western Christendom...
"If the Rex Deus group did exist, it is easy to see how the First Crusade provided
these families with a 'God-given' opportunity to return to their Holy Temple to
recover the treasure that was their birthright - and it would be done at exactly the
same time that the Jewish writer of the Gospel of John the Divine had predicted!
The Rex Deus families were at the forefront of the First, and every Crusade.
 The Rex Deus families were at the forefront of the First, and every Crusade.
Medieval scholars have long wondered why it should be that the same families
drove all of the Crusades for their entire duration, and now we had a possible
answer.
"Once the Christian armies had secured Jerusalem, the non-Rex Deus leaders
were quickly removed and the families infiltrated the Jerusalem monarchy and the
Church, to ensure that they would not be blocked in the holy endeavor of the 'Kings
of God' to regain what their ancestors had left for them...
"...in 1114...[the Rex Deus group] told Baldwin [King of Jerusalem] that they
wanted to post a small contingent of knights in Jerusalem to carry out some
exploratory digging under the pretext of being...guardians of the highways for
pilgrims... Unfortunately, the king was not persuaded... In 1118, Baldwin I died at
the age of sixty (presumably of natural causes) and his cousin was rapidly crowned
King Baldwin II of Jerusalem. Within weeks, nine French knights were camped on
the site of Herod's stables... The world was told their mission was to save the
Christian pilgrims from the evil Muslim bandits, but their true mission was to
locate and rescue the scrolls and treasures of the Jerusalem Church." ( 96:79-
83)

In his book Behold a Pale Horse, William Cooper stated that the real treasure the Templars
absconded with was not the Temple artifacts, but relics pertaining to Jesus Christ, including His
bones! We wondered for some time how Cooper knew this. Not only did William Cooper
claim to know what the relics of Jesus are, but where they are hidden. Underlying Cooper's
belief in this heresy is his rejection of the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ:

"One of the greatest secrets of the ages is the true story of the Holy Grail, the
robe of Jesus, the remains of the Cross of Crucifixion, and whether Jesus actually
died or if he survived and produced a child. Many myths surround the Knights
Templar concerning these relics, and most myths throughout history have at least
some basis in fact. If my sources are correct, the Knights Templar survive today as
a branch of the Illuminati and guard the relics, which are hidden in a location
known only to them...
"According to members of the intelligence community, when the New World
Order is solidified the relics will be taken out, will be united with the Spear of
Destiny, and will, according to legend, give the world's ruler absolute power. This
may confirm beliefs passed down through the ages that describe the significance of
these relics when united in the hands of one man. It may also explain Hitler's
desperate search for their hiding place during World War II. Again I must remind
you that it makes not one iota of difference what you believe. If they believe, you
will be affected.
"The Knights Templar were founded sometime during the 11th century in
Jerusalem by the Prieuré de Sion for the express purpose of guarding the
remaining relics of Jesus and to provide military protection for the religious
travelers during their pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
"The Prieuré de Sion was a religious order founded upon Mount Sion in
Jerusalem. The Order set for itself the goal of preserving and recording the
bloodline of Jesus and the House of David. Through every means available to them,
the Prieuré de Sion had found and retrieved the remaining relics. I am amazed at
the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail and the information that they have
unearthed. Most of all I am amazed at their inability to put the puzzle together. The
treasure hidden in France is not the treasure of the Temple of Jerusalem. It is the
Holy Grail itself, the robe of Jesus, the last remaining pieces of the Cross of
Crucifixion, and, according to my sources, someone's bones. I can tell you that
the reality of the bones will shake the world to its very foundations if I have
been told the truth. The relics are hidden in France. I know the location and so do
the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail, but they do not know that they know—or do
they?" ( Behold a Pale Horse, 51:75-6)

Behold a Pale Horse, Holy Blood, Holy Grail and the multitude of Grail publications all claim
that the future revelation of the treasure of Rennes le Chateau, the French village where the
Prieuré de Sion deposited the Templars' Grail cache, will be the undoing of Christianity. The
Prieuré obviously plans to produce, i.e. manufacture, relics which would disprove the divinity
of Jesus Christ. A French website maintains that this is the famed secret of Rennes le Chateau:

"...that the treasure of Rennes is not material but that it contains the formal proof
that the crucifixion did not take place and that Jesus was still alive in the year 45 (?
!?!?). Source of this priest: another priest Anglican, Gun Alfred Leslie Lilley, died
in 1940, which had contacts with the modernistic catholic movement (based at the
beginning with St-Sulpice), like with Emile Hoffet." ( 948)

Meanwhile, back in Europe, "The legendary origin of so many statuettes in the baggage trains
of returning crusaders, especially when they happened to be Templars, [was] no guarantee of
the orthodoxy of their cult. That many legends of the period connect the twelfth-century Black
Virgins with an earlier miraculous origin dating from the Merovingian period raises potentially
disquieting religio-political questions." ( 272:13)

During medieval times, the Knights Templar were involved in the financing and otherwise
lending support to the building of over 1,000 churches and cathedrals throughout Europe, many
in honor of the Black Virgin. Following the dissolution of the Templars in 1307, the Prieuré de
Sion carried on quietly mainstreaming the Black Virgin, particularly in France. Laurence
Gardner wrote in Bloodline of the Holy Grail of the astrological configuration of the French
cathedrals: "In accordance with the Hermetic principle of 'As above, so below', the combined
ground-plan of the Notre Dame cathedrals replicates the Virgo constellation... {See The Virgo
Cathedrals of Northern France for this configuration.} The 'Notre Dame' cathedrals...were
mainly the work of the 'Children of Solomon'—a guild of masons instructed by St. Bernard's
Cistercian Order." ( 29:264, 66)

"The nine Knights were sent out by Bernard the Cistercian; gothic was born at
Citeaux. The whole gothic formula derives from the Cistercians and the
'Conipagnons des Devoirs'—heirs of the builders of gothic cathedrals—make no
mystery that they derive their characteristic 'feature', their descriptive geometry,
indispensable for the erection of gothic monuments, from the Cistercian Order.
"1020. This was a notable epoch in Romanesque architecture; the epoch during
which Christianity decked itself with 'a display of white churches'; for this was the
time when after a labour lasting five centuries the Benedictine abbeys succeeded in
constituting a corps, a lay brotherhood of builders, affiliated to the Order, to which
they could appeal for protection if necessary.
"After the abbeys, where they trained their workmen, the Benedictines were able
to put lay builders at the disposal of the secular church, often under the direction of
monastic master-craftsmen...who came to build and teach in Normandy...
"...beneath the aisles and choir of [Chartres Cathedral] called, wrongly, the crypt;
a more exact designation would be 'the lower church'. There is a tradition that the
builders' guilds, at least 'Children of Solomon', held ceremonies of initiation in this
crypt." ( Mysteries of Chartres Cathedral- 926)

The Black Virgin was, in reality, Virgo, the Great Mother Goddess known to the Egyptians as
Isis, who was christened in Alexandria as Mary Magdalene. According to The Cult of the Black
Virgin, the full name of the Prieuré is the Order of the Prieuré Notre Dame de Sion. Former
Grand Master of the Prieuré, Pierre Plantard de Saint Clair, has identified Notre Dame as Our
Lady of the Light, i.e. Lucifer, the Light-Bearer.

"There exists in France an organization that has been in continuous existence since
the twelfth century, that has some features both of an order of chivalry and of a
religious order, though it is not quite either; a secret society which does not spurn the
right sort of publicity; a political grouping with specific aims that is also interested in
ancient esoteric wisdom and hidden mysteries. Its full name is the Order of the
Prieuré Notre Dame de Sion, and its chief aim seems always to have been the
restoration of the Merovingian blood-line to the throne. It is also passionately
concerned with the cult of the Black Virgin and has a remarkable record of equal
 concerned with the cult of the Black Virgin and has a remarkable record of equal
rights for women...
"The Grand Master of the Prieuré 1981-4, Pierre Plantard, is reported as saying
that the Sicambrians, ancestors of the Frankish Merovingians, worshipped Cybele as
Diana of the Nine Fires, or as Arduina, the eponymous goddess of the Ardennes. The
huge idol to Diana/Arduina which once towered over Carignan, in north-east France,
between the Black Virgin sites of Orval, Avioth and Mezièrres, near to Stenay, where
the Merovingian king and saint, Dagobert II, was murdered in 679, points
circumstantially to a link between the two cults. In this connection Plantard mentions
that one of the most important acts of Dagobert, when he acceded to the throne after
his Irish exile, was to continue the ancient tradition of Gaul, the worship of the Black
Virgin. The Black Virgin, he insists, is Isis and her name is Notre-Dame de Lumière."
( Cult of the Black Virgin, 272:14)

As stated by Ean Begg, the raison d'être of the Prieuré de Sion is the restoration of the
Merovingian dynasty as the royalty of Europe and eventually to a position of world supremacy.
From this bloodline—whose blasphemous claims of divinity refer to intermarriage between the
pre-flood demons and the daughters of men—issued a truly Satanic dynasty of kings. As
previously stated, the Merovingians boast that the founder of their dynasty, King Meroveus, a
worshiper of the virgin goddess Diana of the Nine Fires, was sired by a 'beast of the
sea'—Neptune, god of the sea and founder of Atlantis. According to the author of Bloodline of
the Holy Grail:

"Despite the carefully listed genealogies of his time, the heritage of Meroveus was
strangely obscured in the monastic annals. Although the rightful son of Clodion, he
was nonetheless said by the historian Priscus to have been sired by an arcane sea
creature, the Bistea Neptunis... The Sicambrian Franks, from whose female line the
Merovingians emerged were associated with Grecian Arcadia before migrating to
the Rhineland. As we have seen, they called themselves the Newmage — 'People of
the New Covenant', just as the Essenes of Qumran had once been known. It was
the Arcadian legacy that was responsible for the mysterious sea beast—the Bistea
Neptunis— as symbolically defined in the Merovingian ancestry. The relevant sea-
lord was King Pallas, a god of old Arcadia... The immortal sea-lord was said to be
'ever-incarnate in a dynasty of ancient kings' whose symbol was a fish - as was the
traditional symbol of Jesus." - (29:166,175)

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of
the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten
crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. - Rev. 13:1

Not only was Meroveus sired by the sea beast, Neptune, the Merovingian race was sired by the
Nephilim—that demonically-bred race of giants which God destroyed in the Flood. That the
Merovingian bloodline is associated with the subterranean race that inhabits earth's center (Hell)
is confirmed by DragonKey Press, where a review is posted of a book by Kenneth Grant, who
was appointed by Aleister 'The Beast' Crowley to succeed him as Grand Master of the Ordo
Templi Orientis:

"The Nephilim were banished to the center of the earth for disobeying God by
mating with the daughters of men and teaching them the 'forbidden' arts. In this
publication the Nephilim have been identified as the Fathers of the Merovingians...
"...the Merovingian race was sired by a water beast known as the Quinotaur.
This Quinotaur took the form of a sea-bull. Crowley's personal seal was of a sea
goat. Grant, writing of Crowley's Seal of the Beast, says: 'The beast is the sea-goat
or amphibious monster identical with Cthulhu, the Quinotaure or Bull of the Deep.'
Grant writes as a footnote; 'The waters under the earth; home of the 'ancestors' or
subconscious atavisms of the race.' Is this a reference to the race of the Grail?."
( 571)

It was originally from Cain, whose descendants intermarried with the Nephilim, that the Grail
race descended. Enki, the twin brother of Enlil, is merely an anagram of Cain, whose twin was
race descended. Enki, the twin brother of Enlil, is merely an anagram of Cain, whose twin was
Abel according to occult belief.

"The mortal world spreads east and west and the land of le invisibles lies above
and below it in the vertical dimensions of height and depths, north and south,
Horus and Set.' This ties in with the Book of Enoch and the Hosts above and the
fallen, banished Nephilim below. This also reminds us of the twins or brother gods
in Sumeria called Enki and Enlil. Enki, the infernal of the two, represents Set and
Enlil represents Horus (although in this context Enlil would also be Osiris.) In
ancient mythologies names and stories can be switched and one god can also be an
attribute of another. It's best to keep this in mind when studying this type of
material. Set kills Osiris as Enki kills Enlil. As it has been shown in another article
of this publication, Enki is associated with Cain, and Cain was a very bad boy.
Enki was an infernal god that has been identified, in this publication, as siring the
Merovingian race.
"...Enki has been associated with Set...who is also Satan...
"...Writing of the Great Old Ones or Elder Gods from Lovecraftian lore, Grant
says, 'The letter M, the key vibration of the plane of the Elder Gods, is represented
mythologically as the sea-goat, Makaru or as the crocodile, the beast of the
waters.' Couldn't Makaru be a form of Merovee who spawned the
Merovingians, and was sired himself from a sea-bull? Tracy Twyman has
already written of the connections between Lovecraft's Necronomicon Mythos and
the Merovingians in her article Dead But Dreaming: The Great Old Ones of
Lovecraftian Legend Reinterpreted as Sumerian/Atlantean Kings..." ( 571)

"The Eye Over the Throne was a hieroglyph used in Egypt and Sumeria to denote
the world monarchy of the Atlantean Gods. Since here it is called 'Kingu',
obviously he was one of these 'kings', perhaps related etymologically to 'Cain',
whose name is the root from which the word 'king' comes, and who is said to be
one of the eldest ancestors of the Grail family." (922)

According to Blavatsky, after the Flood it was Noah's son, Ham, and his descendants, who
preserved and carried on the occult traditions of Cain, including intermarriage with the gods:

"The history or 'fables' about the mysterious Telchines—fables echoing each and
all the archaic events of our esoteric teachings—furnish us with a key to the origin
of Cain's genealogy (Genesis, ch. iii.); they give the reason why the Roman
Catholic Church identifies 'the accursed blood' of Cain and Ham with Sorcery, and
makes it responsible for the Deluge. Were not the Telchines—it is argued—the
mysterious ironworkers of Rhodes; they who were the first to raise statues to the
gods, furnish them with weapons, and men with magic arts? And is it not they who
were destroyed by a deluge at the command of Zeus, as the Cainites were by that
of Jehovah?" ( 897:391)

Dagobert's Revenge recommends Tracy Twyman's "Dead But Dreaming: The Great Old Ones
of Lovecraftian Legend Reinterpreted as Sumerian/Atlantean Kings" for information about the
Atlantean gods, the Nephilim, who will rise again when the stars are in the right position.
According to that informative article, the Nephilim preserved their occult traditions within the
oath-bound secret societies which are now programming the younger generation to accept the
Grail mythology as true.

"The Secret Doctrine given to the elite castes of mankind by the Nephilim or the
'Annunaki', the gods of ancient Sumeria and Atlantis, has been passed down
through the ages, not only to the Masons, Templars, Rosicrucians, and other
fraternal orders which perpetuate the tradition, but also to the teenage geeks and D
& D 'gamers' of today via the [H.P.] Lovecraft/Necronomicon lore, which has given
birth to a cornucopia of role-playing and computer games, in much the same way
that Monty Python and the Society for Creative Anachronism have kept alive the
Grail myth for these same teenagers." (922)
Twyman quotes The Necronomian, "a volume written in Damascus in the Eighth Century, A.D.,
by a person called the 'Mad Arab', Abdul Alhazred... This book, according to the mythos,
contains the formulae for evoking incredible things into visible appearance, beings and monsters
which dwell in the Abyss, and Outer Space, of the human psyche." The Necronomicon, or
"Book From the Dead" consists of messages from the ancient gods of Lemuria and Atlantis,
who foretell that, when the stars are rightly positioned in the heavens, will be the opportune
time for performing blood rituals to effect the resurrection of these 'sleeping' gods and their
human offspring:

"'There had been eons when other things ruled on the Earth, and they had had
great cities. Remains of them, he said the deathless Chinaman had told him, were
still to be found as Cyclopean stones on islands in the Pacific. They all died vast
epochs of time before man came, but there were arts which could revive them when
the stars had come round again to the right positions in the cycle of eternity. They
had indeed come themselves from the stars, and brought their images with them.'

"Lovecraft, like Enoch, and like ancient man himself, conceived of the ancient
Atlantean gods or Nephilim as possessing supernatural power, and, like Enoch,
says that this power comes from the stars, that these beings in fact had come from
the stars themselves, and seemed to be metaphysically affected by the movement of
the stars, being able to resurrect from the dead only when the stars were in a certain
position.
"Likewise, the Atlantean god-kings purposely associated themselves with the
stars and the planets, taking on the personifications of planets and constellations,
each of which had a particular 'energy' or 'plain of existence' associated with it.
This energy could be further manipulated by the prayers and rituals of the cult
members who are loyal to the Great Old Ones, and wish to see their kingdom rise
again, in much the same way that Masons, Rosicrucians and other occultists today
perform rituals in hope of bringing about the 'Great Work' called the 'New World
Order', a new Golden Age just like the one that covered the Antediluvian world
when the Atlantean god-kings (whom they revere) ruled over the Earth directly.
The Eye in the Pyramid on our dollar bill, which represents the New World Order,
is clearly a symbol of this newly-risen kingdom of Atlantis, 'watched over' (as in
'the Watchers') by the All-Seeing Eye, which could just as easily be the eye of
Dagon, or Leviathan, or Cthulhu. It even looks reptilian, like it belongs on the face
of a dragon.
"The rise of R'lyeh, the New World Order, the New Atlantis, the New Jerusalem,
the Golden Age, and even the Apocalypse - these are all terms for the same
resurrection of the ancient global kingdom of the gods. Such a resurrection is also
described in Aleister Crowley's The Book of the Law when he writes about the
coming 'Age of Horus' and the return of the rule of the gods, as well as their
offspring, the human 'kings'." (922)

Alice Bailey associated the Grail bloodline with the sign of Virgo: "Virgo itself is a cup-shaped
constellation...; in its highest meaning the Holy Grail." Along with descent from immortal sea
beasts, the Prieuré de Sion also alleges to have "incontrovertible proof" of Merovingian descent
from Jesus Christ and His continuing bloodline, and has been working to reestablish the power
of the Merovingian dynasty, this time over a world kingdom.

However, even Baigent, Leigh and Lincoln have admitted, "while the Merovingian royal blood
was credited with a sacred, miraculous, and divine nature, it was not explicitly stated anywhere
that this blood was in fact Jesus." Claims of direct descent from Jesus—who is at best another
Jesus, Yeshu, an Essene adept who saves by giving gnosis rather than shedding his blood—and
Mary Magdalene (the holy grail or womb which bore this other Jesus' children) are merely
attempts to Christianize the demonic bloodline which will place Lucifer on the throne of this
world.

"Writers examining the lives of Christ and Mary Magdalen in search of clues to
the Grail mystery have been left with more questions than answers. And those
going over the Bible with a fine-toothed comb have come up equally empty-
 going over the Bible with a fine-toothed comb have come up equally empty-
handed. Undoubtedly the reason for this is due to the fact that the Holy Grail has
virtually nothing to do with Christianity per se. Christ may have been a key
figure in a long line of servants of the Grail, but its legacy is not to be found within
the context of the religion founded in his name. Not a single one of the crucial
clues relating to the Grail mystery can be satisfactorily explained in terms of
orthodox Christianity. Indeed, it would appear that the Grail story was Christianized
precisely to conceal a legacy that was wholly unchristian. It is a legacy that goes
back to Ia, and the mysterious race of which he was a descendant...
"The first king of Sumeria was also the first god of Sumeria. He was a deified
king named IA, and he was known as the Lord of the Flood, or Lord of the Deep
Waters. The name IA served as the basis of god-names from many other cultures,
including (but not limited to) Jah, Ihah, Yahweh, Jove, Jehovah, Allah, Janus,
Ianus, Uranus, Ouranos, and... Oannes." (Book of Lies: The Disinformation Guide
to Magick and the Occult)

'THE MOTHER PRECEDES THE SON'

"...the constellation Virgo, which in fact rises just before the star
Arcturus." (Virgo)

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the
sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve
stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be
delivered. - Rev. 12:1,2

"Thus, in conclusion, we greet Mary as the great sign in the heavens

which precedes the coming of her Son, because the mother always
precedes the son. We greet her as the one who at Fatima wanted to bring
peace to the world if we fulfilled the demands of her maternal heart... We
greet her as the Victor in all the battles of God, and as the Mother of the
Church who will bring the Good Friday of the Church to an end and give
it a new Easter." - Bishop Rudolph Graber, Fatima Advancing Rapidly
Towards Final Fulfillment (929)

A New Easter? Of course. The feast of the Mother Goddess, Ishtar.

During the Renaissance, that medieval period when the occult traditions flooded Europe from
the Mideast, Chartres Cathedral was built on a sacred site in France where ancient Druids
worshipped the Mother Goddess. A World Heritage Site famous for its Gothic
architecture—and, to the initiated, its thoroughly pagan symbolism—Chartres Cathedral is
known to occultists as the 'Golden Book' that reinstated the philosophy of classical Greece in
the mainstream of Christian Europe. The cathedral expresses through 'sacred geometry' and
astrological symbolism the Gnostic belief that "Man can compass his salvation by means of
knowledge", referring to gnosis. Within its massive structure was housed a mystery school
which operated as a theological academy for over two centuries. In the underground crypt of the
cathedral, initiates worshipped a replica of a Druidic statue known as the 'Virgini Pariturae' or
'the virgin about to give birth'. The Templar Chronicles calls the Virgini Pariturae "the Virgo
who must give birth".

The statue in the underground chapel was also called Our Lady Under the Earth because the
crypt, where initiations took place, was believed to be connected to telluric powers, i.e. the
underworld. On the west front of Chartres Cathedral is featured in the tympanum of the right
portal—the Gate of Birth—a statue identical to the Virgini Pariturae in the underground
chamber. The exterior icon was and still is venerated by the profane masses of Catholics as
Mary, the 'Mother of God'. Exoterically the white virgin on the west facade is the Blessed
Virgin Mary who gave birth two thousand years ago; but esoterically, she is the black virgin
who was still pregnant with child.
 "The Druid's love of inner journeys and their visions inspired their prophesies
about the woman that would bring a saviour into the world. This pregnant woman
is the black madonna we often find in medieval shrines throughout Europe. If the
white virgin is the one who has already given birth, the black virgin is the pregnant
woman of the druid's vision." ( 931)

The photos below show 'Mary' in a position identical to the other Black Virgins we have seen
above—enthroned and with a child on her lap, or rather between her thighs!! The Gemini
figures, representing twins, are difficult to recognize; see the left arch on a level with the twelve
apostles.

The occult symbolism of this most famous of the medieval cathedrals is discussed in the
Masonic book, Rosslyn: Guardian of the Secrets of the Holy Grail. According to authors Tim
Wallace-Murphy and Marilyn Hopkins, the seven mystical cathedrals of Europe were
deliberately founded on Druidic sites dedicated to planetary oracles. There is a prophecy that,
when the planets align in the same configuration as the cathedrals, the time of transition into the
New Age will have arrived. The sacred site upon which Chartres Cathedral was erected was
dedicated by the Druids to the Sun.

"The Druids, like most initiatory tribal cultures, woshipped the principle of the
Eternal Feminine as the source of all fertility. Julius Caesar describes, in de Bello
Gallico, the veneration accorded to a fire-blackened, female figurine which was
worshipped at a Druidic sacred grotto at Carnutum, now the modern city of
Chartres...—a fertility symbol he called Virgini Pariturae, the virgin about to give
birth... It was at Chartres that the Church adopted the veneration of the fire-
blackened, Druidic figurine Virgini Pariturae in the guise of the Black Madonna. A
medieval replica of the Druidic figure is found in the crypt, which the official guide
states categorically was used as an initiation chamber. " (266:49,163)

The Virgin portrayed in the west facade of Chartres Cathedral is called the 'Virgini Pariturae',
which means "the virgin about to give birth". This statue does not represent Mary or the
Biblical concept of womanhood, but the archetypal goddesses of fertility and the 'feminine
principle'. Since Chartres was dedicated to the Sun-God, the child of the sculpture is Horus, not
principle'. Since Chartres was dedicated to the Sun-God, the child of the sculpture is Horus, not
Jesus Christ. The following excerpt from Rosslyn reveals how Gnostic occultism engulfed
Western Christendom through the occult infiltration of the Roman Church.

"The revelations of the ancient mysteries brought about a deep insight into the laws
of all natural phenomena, revealing the very unity in nature which is the mainspring
of creation, and the importance of the principle of the eternal feminine. To
commemorate this heretical and pagan concept, they carved a replica of the Druidic
statue 'Virgini Pariturae', the virgin about to give birth, which had been a focus of
worship at Chartres in pre-Christian times. To avoid persecution and to enable this
powerful symbol to exert its influence the statue was carved in the guise of Mary
the Mother of God with the infant Jesus seated on her lap. This symbolic
representation of fertility and the archetypal feminine rests in the crypt of Chartres
to this day. It is known as Notre-Dame de Sous-Terre—Our Lady Under the Earth.
A replica of this figurine was then carved in the place of honour above the main
portal of the cathedral. After many years of theological dispute with the Orthodox
Church in the East, Roman Catholicism had at long last stumbled across the perfect
answer to the problems posed by the ambiguities inherent in the title 'Mother of
God'. In emphasizing Mary's role, the Church was fulfilling a deep and long-felt
need among its adherents by importing the pagan principle of the eternal feminine
into the previously male-dominated and patriarchal realm of the Holy Trinity. Early
Christians had taken up the theology of St. Paul which described Jesus as the
'Second Adam'. They then fell into the theological trap by calling Mary the 'Second
Eve', so reviving the old pagan concept of the divine son/spouse relationship as
found in the Ishtar and Tammuz cult of ancient Babylonia and in the worship of
Isis and Osiris in Pharaonic Egypt. This form of veneration also incorporated the
concept of Sophia the goddess of Wisdom. The Church attempted to exert control
over this Marian cult in its traditional manner by taking over pre-Christian forms of
worship and sacred sites dedicated to various goddesses, renaming them in honour
of the Holy Virgin. The symbolism, prayers and litanies associated with Demeter,
Cybele, Ishtar and Isis were adopted and given a Christian veneer. (266:87-89)

Wallace-Murphy and Ms. Hopkins credit the Merovingian infiltrators for the stunning success
of Mariolotry in Roman Catholicism: "It is ironic that Mariolotry, one of the major and most
pervasive aspects of modern Catholicism, should have been further strengthened by the spiritual
understanding of hidden initiates in the Middle Ages." (266:89)

The pagan principle of the eternal feminine asserts that the Mother Goddess ruled over the first
age of earth, corresponding to Lemuria, which supposedly achieved the highest level of
civilization ever known to man. It is the same Gnostic principle which Bishop Graber and the
present Pope fundamentally espouse, viz., that the divine feminine, masquerading as Mary,
chronologically preceded and therefore gave divine life to her Son. As previously stated, one
significant outcome of the Nestorian heresy was to give priority to the Mother Goddess, the
pagan feminine archetype, over her Son. There are, however, esoteric connotations in Bishop
Graber's statement, which only the initiated fully understand.

"...we greet Mary as the great sign in the heavens which precedes the coming of her
Son..."

Bishop Graber's prediction is generally construed as an apparition of Mary, the Mother of

God. Pope John Paul II is expecting a manifestation of Mary similar to the 'Miracle of the Sun'
at Fatima, Portugal on October 13, 1917. On this occasion, the sun appearing as "a solar
disc...spun upon itself in a mad whirl...and whirling wildly, seemed all at once to loosen itself
from the firmament and, blood red, advance threateningly upon the earth as if to crush us with
its huge and fiery weight." (938) Catholics believe that a recurrence of this miracle would
vindicate the Catholic Church as the 'one true Church'.

Although Roman Catholics perceive this apparition as a visitation of Mary, the mother of Jesus,
New Agers recognize the many occult phenomena which attended the solar event at Fatima.
According to a published eye-witness account of the Fatima apparition, the sun took on the
appearance of a solar disk, an ancient occult symbol of the sun. (See solar disk symbol and
explanation.) On October 13, 1917, the sun would have risen in the sign of Virgo; also the
Moon was in Virgo. Bishop Graber has predicted that a sign will precede the coming of Christ.
And not just a sign, but a great sign! Was the Bishop referring to Virgo, the Great Mother
Goddess?

On Friday, October 13 in the year 1307 A.D., the Knights Templars were arrested by King
Philip IV of France in collusion with Pope Clement V. Might the Fatima vision in 1917 have
been a sign of the coming vengeance determined upon Rome by the Templars? Bishop Graber,
whose associations include Knight of Malta, Peter Beyerhaus, may be sending an esoteric
message that Virgo will be the sign in the heavens which will precede the coming of Horus, the
pagan messiah who will avenge the Knights Templars by destroying the Roman Catholic
Church.

Should another Fatima-type apparition occur in the sign of Virgo, perhaps at Medjugorje, such
an event would hardly vindicate Roman Catholicism as the 'one true Church.' To the contrary,
another such apparition displaying overtly occult phenomena would probably provide the death
warrant needed to overthrow this Harlot Church which has, in recent times, scandalized the
world with reports of homosexuality and pedophilia in its priesthood.

Since few people are aware of the Merovingian (Jewish) infiltration and takeover of the Roman
Catholic Church or that celibacy, homosexuality and pederasty are sacred rites of the
Merovingians, and given that the secret societies, which are under the oversight of the Prieuré
de Sion, control the news media which has sensationalized these scandals, and considering the
success of this ingenious and carefully executed plan, we submit that the mighty fall of this
citadel of Christendom is a fait accompli.

...and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full

of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten
horns... And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the
beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her
desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her
with fire. - Revelation 17:16

PART II
IDENTITY OF THE FALSE CHRIST

"A number of times the Scripture refers to Jesus as 'The Branch.'

Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH' (Zechariah 6:12).
That is one of the names in the Old Testament for the coming of
the Messiah. Also, concerning the Branch, we read in Zechariah
3:8, For, behold, I will bring forth my servant the BRANCH.' Also
'In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious.'
(Isaiah 4:2a). He is the servant, He is a man, He is God; He is the
God-man, Jesus, who has come... A confirmatory of this is that the
brightest star in Virgo is called Spica, which has the ancient
meaning of 'The Branch'—a picture of the coming of Christ." (D.
James Kennedy) - 872:20-21

Although the constellations in the heavens do not form configurations that are definitively
human, animal or vegetable, promoters of the false 'Gospel in the Stars' are of the same opinion
as astrologers that Virgo holds a Branch, and that this Branch represents 'the Christ' who will
come to redeem the world. E. W. Bullinger actually stated: "The day has here come to fulfill
the prophecies concerning Him who is 'the Branch,' 'the Branch of Jehovah,' 'the man whose
name is the Branch.'" (939) Knowing that Virgo is the Great Mother Goddess of pagan
religions, the Scriptures Kennedy and Bullinger have cited will undoubtedly be used to validate
a false Christ who will be promoted as 'The Branch' and whose name will actually mean
"branch".

And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the
man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he
shall build the temple of the LORD: - Zech. 6:12

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous
BRANCH, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and
justice in the earth. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely:
and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR
RIGHTEOUSNESS. - Jer. 23:5,6

In that day shall the BRANCH of the LORD be beautiful and glorious... - Is. 4:2

Isaiah 14 also mentions a branch. In the King James Version, this chapter describes the fall of
Lucifer who will one day incarnate the Antichrist in his attempt to destroy the world:

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut
down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine
heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I
will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will
 will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will
ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt
be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly
look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to
tremble, that did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a wilderness, and
destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? All the
kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. But
thou art cast out of thy grave like an ABOMINABLE BRANCH, and as the
raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the
stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet. - Is. 14:12-19

The Rev'd. Bullinger, Kennedy and fellow

'Biblical' astrologers inform us that "Spica,
which has the ancient meaning of 'The
Branch'," is "a picture of the coming of
Christ." Now in the ancient zodiacs, Spica,
the 'branch,' was portrayed as a serpent.
Note that in the sculpture of Hathor (right),
the goddess is holding the ears of grain and
a serpent! This 'serpent' (Spica) is the
'branch' or 'coming son' of the Egyptians.
Hathor stands upon a lion (Leo) and, as the
woman who rides the beast (Rev.17), is
representative of the Mother Goddess--
Virgo, Eve and Isis:

"Eve or Hawwah is
explained by Robert Graves as
possibly being the Hebrew
version of Heba, Hebat, Khebat,
or Khilba. She is depicted as
riding a lion in a sculpture. She
was worshipped in Jerusalem.
Her Greek name was Heba,
Heracles' goddess-wife.
"Eve is similar to Demeter or
Ceres as the grain goddess, or
the goddess of the garden. This
is Spica, an ear of corn. On
Denerah Virgo is Isis. Spica in
Hebrew astrology is named
Tsemech or 'branch'. This name
is symbolic of a coming son or
branch. Al Mureddin another
star in Virgo is 'the branch that
cometh' and is associated with a
grape gatherer (Noah) who
would redeem man from the
curse of the earth by giving us
wine." (1067)

From the 5th to the 8th centuries, the Merovingian dynasty of kings ruled Europe and, from the
Middle Ages until the present day, most of Europe's monarchs have been of Merovingian
lineage. In 679 A.D., the Roman Catholic Church collaborated with the Carolingian dynasty to
assassinate the Merovingian King, Dagobert II. Dagobert's nephew, Childeric III, was deposed
in 751 by Pepin III, the first of the Carolingian dynasty. The removal of the Merovingian kings
culminated with the coronation of Charlemagne, who became the Holy Roman Emperor in 800.
Ironically, Charlemagne and the Carolingians married Merovingian wives in order to guarantee
the continuation of their dynasty. This would account for the perpetuity of the Merovingian
bloodline in the royalty of Europe.

“In the [8th] century the Merovingian Dynasty of France was overthrown by the
mayors of the Merovingian Palaces, the Carolingians (741). But Carolingians were
also a major part of the Jesus–Magdalene heresy, as we shall soon see. They took
Merovingian wives to assure that the heretical 'divine' bloodline was preserved
twofold. The Carolingian empire became the unholy Holy Roman Empire under
Charlemagne who became the first Emperor, a huge coup.” - 550

"In fact, to consolidate his claim to the throne of the Franks, Charlemagne had
himself married a Merovingian princess." - 936

After the death of Dagobert II, the Merovingian bloodline continued in the personage of
Sigisbert IV, who fled to the south of France, to the village of Rennes le Chateau in Razes.
Sigisbert assumed the name of "the Plant-Ard", which means "sapling" or "branch" and the title
of the Count of Razes. "Plant-Ard" evolved into the surname Plantard:

"...Dagobert II climbed on the throne but he was assassinated in 679 as well as

his son Sigebert IV according to the official history...
"The Merovingian dynasty continued formally with Thierry IV and Childéric III
who was removed in 751 and this was the end of the dynasty. According to the
parchment found by Saunière, and this could be true according to some historians,
Sigebert IV escaped and arrived in the Razes on the 17 of January 681 where he
took refuge with his grand father. Dagobert II had as a second wife Gisèle, the
daughter of Béra II the count of Razès. The Merovingian line included, after
Sigebert IV (676-758) also known as the 'Plant-Ard' - from whom Mr
Plantard took his name!-: Sigebert V (695-768), Bera III (715-771), Guillemon,
Bera IV (755-836), Bera V (794-860), Hildéric I and finally Sigebert VI known as
'Ursus'. From this lineage came the Blanchefort family who gave three centuries
later a Templar Grand Master, Bertrand de Blanchefort... According to the
parchment found by Saunière the lineage did not stop with Sigebert VI but
continued up to this date although nobody claimed the French throne."- 856

"According to the latest documents the Merovingian dynasty is now alive in the
Plantard family (we must remember that Saint Dagobert II' son, Sigebert IV was
also known as "Plant Ard or Rejeton Ardent")." The phrase means Burning Kid!

Another prophecy pertaining to the Messiah is Isaiah 53:2: For he shall grow up before him as a
tender PLANT, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when
we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

To further authenticate their pseudo-divine lineage, the Merovingian genealogies have Sigisbert
IV, the 'Plant-Ard' or Branch, married to "Magdala", who is blasphemously identified as a
descendant of Mary Magdalene and Jesus Christ.
 "...the marriage of Dagobert II and Giselle of Razes combined the two
bloodlines, that of the Holy Family and that of a pagan divine beast, the Quinotaur.
The connection between the Merovingians and the Holy Family seems to have been
hind-shadowed by this union of the bloodlines, when indeed they would seem from
contemporary sources to be a kind of Pendragon lineage, such as Vortigern and
Arthur in Britain. In Sigisbert IV, it appears the bloodlines of the divine king and
the world teacher combined.
"Given the events of his childhood, it is natural that Sigsbert, the new Count of
Rhedae, kept a low profile. The only solid evidence of his existence is a charter for
a monastery signed in 718 by 'Sigebert, Comte de Rhedae, and his wife Magdala'."
- 873 (Book 1, Chap. 9)

Sigisbert and Magdala were most assuredly not descendants of Jesus Christ and Mary
Magdalene; rather their Pendragon lineage refers to descent from Uther Pendragon, the father of
King Arthur and Head Dragon of the Druidic Dragon Court:

"The Pendragon, or 'Head Dragon of the Island'...was the King-of-Kings and

'Guardian of the Celtic Isle'. The title was not dynastic; Pendragons were appointed
from Celtic royal stock by a Druidic council of elders...
"The concept of the dragon in Celtic mythology emerged directly from the holy
crocodile (the Messeh) of the ancient Egyptians. The Pharaohs were anointed with
crocodile fat, and thereby attained the fortitude of the Messeh (Thus Messiah—
Anointed One). The image of the intrepid Messeh evolved to become the Dragon,
which in turn became emblematic of mighty kingship." - 29:183

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan...
Rev. 12:9

Jesus said unto them...Ye are of your father the devil... John 8:42,44

The Merovingian dynasty was deposed in 800 A.D., but perpetuated itself in a direct line from
Dagobert II through his son Sigisbert IV. From this bloodline came Godfroi de Bouillon, who
captured Jerusalem in 1099 and formed the Knights Templars, as well as the Prieuré de Sion.
Recall that the Society of Ormus which originated in Alexandria, Egypt had relocated to
Calabria, Italy and that, in 1070 AD, twenty-nine years before the first Crusade, the Calabrian
monks removed to Ardennes Forrest in France, part of the domains of Godfroi de Bouillon who
was the duke of Lorraine.

"The First Crusade (A.D. 1098) could then conceivably have been an attempt to
restore an heir of the Davidic bloodline to the throne of Jerusalem in the person of
Godfroi of Bouillon (also known as Godfroi of Lorraine), who was, according to
legend, of Merovingian lineage... This secret cabal called the Priory of Sion, was
reputed to have been formed by Godfroi of Lorraine to protect the interests of the
bloodline." - 936:63

The Templar Revelation lists among the Merovingian Rex Deus families who strategized the
First Crusade the "Counts of Champagne, Lords of Gisors, Lords of Payen, Counts of Fontaine,
Counts of Anjou, de Bouillon, St. Clairs of Roslin, Brienne, Joinville, Chaumont, St Clair de
Gisor, St Clair de Neg and the Hapsburgs..." Godfroi de Bouillon who became the King of
Jerusalem and first Grand Master of the Knights Templar was a descendant of King Dagobert
through Hugues de Plantard. From these families descended the Saint-Clair (Sinclair) and
Plantard bloodlines, as well as the Hapsburg dynasty which is allied with Plantard through the
House of Lorraine.

"...Although it was deposed in the eighth century, the Merovingian bloodline did
not become extinct... By dint of dynastic alliances and intermarriages, this line
 not become extinct... By dint of dynastic alliances and intermarriages, this line
came to include Godfroi de Bouillon, who captured Jerusalem in 1099, and various
other noble and royal families, past and present—Blanchefort, Gisors, SAINT-
CLAIR—SINCLAIR in England...PLANTARD, and Habsburg-Lorraine...
"...in the tenth century a certain Hugues de Plantard...a literal descendant of both
Dagobert and Guillem de Gellon—became the father of Eustache, the first count of
Boulogne. Eustache's grandson was Godfroi de Bouillon, duke of Lorraine and
conqueror of Jerusalem. And from Godfroi there issued a dynasty and a 'royal
tradition' that, by virtue of being founded on 'the rock of Sion,' was equal to those
presiding over France, England, and Germany. If the Merovingians were indeed
descended from Jesus, then Godfroi—scion of the Merovingian blood royal—had,
in his conquest of Jerusalem, regained his rightful heritage...
"There are at least a dozen families in Britain and Europe today—with
numerous collateral branches—who are of Merovingian lineage. These include the
houses of Hapsburg-Lorraine (present titular dukes of Lorraine and kings of
Jerusalem), PLANTARD, Luxembourg, Montpezat, Montesquiou, and various
others. According to the 'Prieuré documents,' the SINCLAIR family in Britain is
also allied to the bloodline, as are various branches of the Stuarts..." - 31:107, 396,
409-10

The first Angevin dynasty was known from the 12th century as the Plantagenet dynasty through
the House of Anjou which produced King Henry II and subsequent kings:

"Geoffrey Plante Genest, count of Anjou and Maine was the father of king
Henry II of England and, amongst others, Hamelyn (Plantagenet), Warren earl of
Surrey (London). The first evidence for the Pl(a/e)nte name in England is found in
1219, just after the times of Henry II's son, the lecherous king John.
"In 1200, king John married Isabella of Angouleme in Aquitaine who
subsequently married Hugh de Lusignan, the most prominent baron of Aquitaine.
In 1247, John (Plantagenet) (de Warenne) married Alice Lusignan (de Brien) and
English resentments of favouritism towards the `foreign' Lusignans led on to the
Baron's revolt in England, leading to the capture of king Henry III at Lewes (1264),
though the king was freed by John (Plantagenet) (de Warenne) at Evesham (1265)."
- 950

"The Plantagenets were themselves a junior branch of the House of Anjou, whose
senior branch was the House of Vere [whose] ancestry was jointly Pictish and
Merovingian descending from the ancient Grail House of Scythia." - 248:8

"According to the 'Prieuré documents' the lords of Anjou-Plantagenet family were

thus allied to the Merovingian bloodline. And the name of Plantagenet may even
have been intended to echo 'Plant-ard' or Plantard.'" - 31:302

According to Fritz Springmeier's Top Thirteen Illuminati Bloodlines, "The original start of the
Prieuré de Sion appears to have been the idea of a number of powerful bloodlines, and included
various descendants of the Merovingians, including the House of Lorraine, the House of Guise,
the Medicis, Sforzas, the Estes, the Gonzagas, and the St. Clairs (Sinclairs). The Medicis are
tied to the Black Nobility.

"From the beginning the Prieuré de Sion has been committed to Hermetic
Magic... René d' Anjou, a descendant of the Merovingians persuaded Cosimo de
Medici to establish in c. 1444 a non-church library at San Marco where Plato,
Pythagorean works, and books on Hermetic Magic were translated. Up until this
time, the Catholic church had control of all the libraries. It was from Cosimo de
Medici's library that the spark of Greek and Egyptian teachings set off what
developed into the Renaissance, which was a revival of humanism and the occult. It
 developed into the Renaissance, which was a revival of humanism and the occult. It
appears that during the Middle Ages, witchcraft and the mystery religions had
seriously dissolved to the point that these modes of thought had to be relearned
from the ancient writings. Interestingly, the Middle Ages when witchcraft and
paganism were dissolving have been branded the 'Dark Ages' by the establishment,
and inaccurately painted as a time when learning went out." - 77:79

The Merovingian families which ruled France, England and Germany included the Hapsburg-
Lorraine dynasty which, in the twentieth century, played a major role in the formation of the
European Union.

"Prominent in the Wars of Religion was the noble French family of de Guise...
[T]hey disputed the legitimacy of the Valois succession, and claimed their own
right to the throne by virtue of descent from the Emperor Charlemagne through the
House of Lorraine." - 29:307

"The Imperial and Royal Dragon Court is the ancient Household Court and
Order of the senior Angevin descendants of the Imperial and Royal House of Vere
of Caledonia, Anjou and Lorraine, and the physical embodiment of the sovereign
Princedom of Drakenberg, which is recognized under European Law as a sovereign
ethnic racial group; the principal nation states of the Draconian peoples:...
"Furthermore, the royal and ambassadorial nature of the title of the Prince of
Drakenberg (Princeps Draconis) is recognised under the 'Official Observations' of
the Department of Internal Affairs of the Government of its state of origin within
the European Union." - 357

PIERRE PLANTARD DE SAINT-CLAIR

There are compelling reasons for our conviction that the Antichrist will come from the Plantard
and Saint-Clair bloodlines. Supporting evidence for this view will be presented throughout this
series, as well as information leading to discovery of the identity of the False Prophet, a
Merovingian as well.

According to The Messianic Legacy by Baigent, Lincoln and Leigh, Pierre Plantard de Saint-
Claire joined the Prieuré de Sion on July 10, 1943 and, from 1963 to 1981, shared the position
of Grand Master with Gaylord Freeman, also of an Illuminati bloodline. (232:319;235-6)
According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Plantard de Saint-Claire was Grand Master of the Prieuré
de Sion from 1981 to 1984.

"A veritable secret society of 121 dignitaries, the Prieuré de Sion, founded by
Godfroi de Bouillon in Jerusalem in 1099, has numbered among its Grand Masters
Leonardo da Vinci, Victor Hugo and Jean Cocteau. This Order convened its
Convent at Blois on 17 January 1981... As a result of this recent Convent at Blois,
Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire was elected grand master of the Order... This
choice of grand master marks a decisive step in the evolution of the Order's
conception and spirit in relation to the world; for the 121 dignitaries of the Prieuré
de Sion are all éminences grises of high finance and of international political or
philosophical societies; and Pierre Plantard is the direct descendant, through
Dagobert II, of the Merovingian kings. His descent has been proved legally by the
parchments of Queen Blanche of Castile, discovered by the Abbe Sauniére in the
church at Rennes-le-Château (Aude) in 1891. These documents were sold by the
priest's niece in 1965 to Captain Roland Stanmore and Sir Thomas Frazer, and were
deposited in a safe-deposit box of Lloyds Bank Europe Limited of London."
(31:214-15)
 It seems that, following World War II, the Prieuré de Sion, and particularly Pierre Plantard,
were intimately involved with the rise of Charles De Gaulle rise to the presidency of
France.(232:318) According to The Messianic Legacy, "Under the German occupation and the
Vichy regime, secret societies, including freemasonry, had been strictly banned and
membership of any such organisation was subject to severe penalties." Springmeier states:

"It is hard for people to grasp that the Illuminati controlled Russia, Great Britain,
Germany and France during World War II, but they did. Churchill, Roosevelt and
Stalin were all Masons. DeGaulle of France was closely linked with several esoteric
groups, and the Prieuré de Sion and Grand Orient Masons helped him to power in
the 50s... the people of the world weren't ready for a world government, and most
not even a united Europe. W.W. II was carried out to adjust people's thinking
toward wanting European unity." (77:168)

Front organizations were formed to agitate for change, and the Prieuré de Sion assisted in the
military coup that overthrew the Vichy government, clearing the way for DeGaulle.

"Modelled on the Committees of Public Safety during the French Revolution...the

Committees [of Public Safety] began to agitate for a strong guiding hand in France
which would be sympathetic to their cause. Only one person was deemed capable of
providing such a hand—Charles de Gaulle. Thus the Committees of Algeria began to
press insistently for De Gaulle to assume power in France, if necessary by means of a
military coup. They received support from a number of high-ranking military men,
including Marshal Alphonse Juin, who is alleged to have been an important member
of the Prieuré de Sion. They also received support from a coalescing pro-Gaullist
movement in France...whose leaders included Michel Debre--who became De Gaulle's
Minister of Justice and, shortly after, between 1959 and 1962, Prime Minister of
France. Another important pro-Gaullist figure was Geoges Bidault... Between 1945
and 1954, Bidault had worked closely with Robert Schuman...in drawing up plans for
the EEC..." (232:330)

After De Gaulle was installed as President, however, he granted Algeria independence from
France, which weakened France as an imperial power. Therefore, DeGaulle appointed Pierre
Plantard secretary of a national 'Movement' for the defense of liberty to succeed the
Committees. As "minister of propaganda," Plantard proceeded to dismantle and thereby defuse
the Committees of Public Safety which might turn against DeGaulle. The announcement was
published by Plantard's first wife, Anne Lea Hisler:

"When we first met M. Plantard in 1979, he told us that Charles de Gaulle had
personally requested him to direct the French Committees of Public Safety and, when
their task of installing the General in power had been completed, to preside over their
dissolution. In a mimeographed pamphlet deposited with the Bibliothèque Nationale in
1964, Anne Lea Hisler—M. Plantard's first wife—states:
"Under the authority of Marshal Alphonse Juin, the seat of the Secretariat-General
of the Committees of Public Safety in metropolitan France was at Aulnay-sous-Bois
[Paris suburb]. This Committee was directed by Michel Debré, Pierre Plantard known
as Way, and André Malraux...a member of the Prieure de Sion." (232:333,256)

Anne Lea Hisler, Plantard's wife, worked with her husband on the magazine of the Prieuré de Sion,
CIRCUIT, an acronym for "Chivalry of Catholic Rules and Institutions of the Independent and
Traditionalist Union."

"...the Prieuré de Sion was using its magazine for something other than its own
internal business.
"The 1959 series of Circuit [contained] articles by Anne Lea Hisler and others,
including Pierre Plantard, sometimes writing under his own name, sometimes under
 including Pierre Plantard, sometimes writing under his own name, sometimes under
the pseudonym of 'Chyren'." (232:339-40)

The name "Hisler" happens to be an adaptation of "Hitler." The Decatur Daily reported in 2002,
"Fifty-seven years after his death, Hitler's name still has shock value, which may explain why so
many people named Hitler - both in the United States and abroad - had their names legally
changed during World War II. (I know a man named Hisler whose family name was spelled with a
't' instead of an 's' 60 years ago.) (1055)

The prophecies of Nostradamus included "...a number of detailed prophecies concerning Hitler
(whom he calls Hisler), naming him as the 'second antiChrist'."

Was Anne Lea Hisler really Anne Lea Hitler? Is it possible that the wife of Pierre Plantard de
Saint-Claire was related to the infamous Adolf Hitler?

The Templar Revelation confirms other reports of that Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire at least had
Nazi sympathies:

"Born in 1920, he first came to public notice in the Occupied France of 1942 as the
editor of a journal called Vaincre pour une Jeune cehvalerie (Conquest for a Young
Knighthood)—which was markedly uncritical of the Nazi oppressors, and which was
actually published with their approval. This was officially the organ of the Order
Alpha Galates, a quasi-Masonic and chivalric society, based in Paris, of which
Plantard became the Grand Master at the age of just twenty-two...Vaincre is now
[1998] the title of the Priory's internal bulletin, which Pierre de Saint-Clair edits with
his son Thomas." (242:43)

THOMAS PLANTARD DE SAINT-CLAIR

The Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion since 1989 has been Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair.
According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Thomas is the son of the former Grand Master, the late
Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair. The following announcement of Thomas' election as Grand
Master was published in the internal bulletin of the Prieuré de Sion in 1989, and only recently
posted on the Internet.

THOMAS PLANTARD de Saint-Clair

becomes Grandmaster of the PRIORY OF SION

By virtue of Article XIV OF THE CONSTITUTIONS OF THE

PRIORY OF SION: "their titles shall fall as of right to one of their
children to be designated by them without consideration of sex."

By virtue of article XVI "the various duties and titles of

Grandmaster of the Priory of Sion shall be transmissible to their
successor according to the same prerogatives."

By act dated 6 JULY 1989, Pierre PLANTARD de SAINT-CLAIR,

the present Grandmaster, informed the 121 Masters that, in view of
the favourable response of 107 votes in favour, 5 abstentions and 9
votes against accepting the proposed succession of title and
prerogative, ratification had been made on 6 AUGUST 1989 in
PARIS, at 10 o'clock solar time, and that THOMAS PLANTARD
 PARIS, at 10 o'clock solar time, and that THOMAS PLANTARD
de Saint-Clair had been proclaimed Grandmaster. Information has
been sent to all members of the ORDER. - 836:1

Merovingian sources collectively point to the Plantards and Saint-Clairs as the bloodlines that
will produce the Grail King, the divine ruler, at once god and king, who will bring mankind into
a utopian age of peace and prosperity. One piece of evidence for this choice is found in a recent
best-seller, The Da Vinci Code: "Only two direct lines of Merovingians remain. Their family
names are Plantard and Saint-Clair. Both families live in hiding, probably protected by the
Priory." - 935:260

According to Marjorie Reeves' Joachim of Fiore and the Prophetic Future, a second
Charlemagne will arise whose surname begins with 'P'.

"It was a Burgundian World Emperor that [Johann] Lichtenberger expected to arise
as a Second Charlemagne. His hint as to who this will be is quite plain: 'And it is
said in the book of the kings of the Franks that from the stock of King Charles of
France [Charlemagne] will arise in the last days an Emperor, 'nomine P.', who will
be the monarch of all Europe and reform Church and clergy. After him there shall
be no ruler.'" - 823:110-111

E. W. Bullinger wrote in The Witness of the Stars, after which recent pseudo-Christian books
have been patterned: "The day has here come to fulfill the prophecies concerning Him who is
'the Branch,' 'the Branch of Jehovah,' 'the man whose name is the Branch.'"- 939

The Prieuré de Sion was formed and has been directed by individuals related to the Saint-Clair
bloodline. In Great Britain, the surname of this so-called sacred lineage is Sinclair. According
to at least two Masonic sources, the Saint-Clairs are Grand Masters of Freemasonry by right of
birth and they have historically controlled the Prieuré de Sion.

"Through marriage the family of Marie Levis St. Clair was connected to the de
Gisors, the family from which the first and third grand masters of the Prieuré de
Sion came. Without question, Prieuré de Sion was created and run by individuals
related to the St. Clairs. The third grand master was in charge in the year that the
Templars were ordered arrested and the treasure fleet set sail for Scotland to escape
the agents of the French king. Did one St. Clair (from France) correspond with
another Sinclair (from Scotland) for this express purpose? Most likely the answer
is yes." (Lost Treasure of the Knights Templar) - 281:178

"Their domain [the Sinclair family—Scottish branch of the Norman Saint-Clair

Gisors family] at Rosslyn was only a few miles from the former Scottish
headquarters of the Knights Templar, and the chapel at Rosslyn—built between
1446 and 1486—has long been associated with both Freemasonry and the Rose-
Croix. In a charter believed to date from 1601, moreover, the Sinclairs are
recognized as 'hereditary' grand masters of Scottish Masonry.' This is the earliest
specifically Masonic document on record. According to Masonic sources, however,
the hereditary grand mastership was conferred on the Sinclairs by James II, who
ruled between 1437 and 1460—the age of René d'Anjou." (Holy Blood, Holy Grail)
- 31:183

In addition to conditioning the masses to believe their New Age propaganda, another objective
of best-selling New Age books such as Holy Blood, Holy Grail is to covertly communicate
secret information from the Prieuré de Sion to a specific audience—the global network of secret
societies and New Age cults, all of which eagerly await the end of the Age of Pisces and the
beginning of the Age of Aquarius. At that point in time, the much despised Church Age will
come to a close and Lucifer, in the person of the Antichrist, will reign over a Golden Age,
come to a close and Lucifer, in the person of the Antichrist, will reign over a Golden Age,
having destroyed the Harlot Church which no longer serves his purposes.

In Holy Blood, Holy Grail, there is a childhood photo of Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair seated
on the lap of Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair.

This peculiar photograph of Thomas Plantard, seated on the lap of Pierre, is conveying an
esoteric message to the occultist. Please take note of the pose, Thomas sitting on the lap of
Pierre. Below are some photographs of famous Black Virgins, also called Black Madonnas.
Note the striking similarity of the poses of Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair with Thomas and the
Black Virgins with their sons who were child gods. Notice also the masculine appearance of the
'Madonnas' and the placement of their sons between their legs:
 "Our ancient, battered, much-loved, little-understood
Black Virgins are a still-living archetypal image that
lies at the heart of our civilization and has a message
for us.... The light of nature tells us that life is a
pilgrimage, a journey to the stars along the Milky Way,
her hero-path, a voyage across the great water in which
she is the ship, rudder, and guiding star.
"There is clearly no return to the twelfth century, the
third century or the third millennium BC. Inanna,
Sophia, the Holy Grail and the Church of Amor
[Catharism] are no longer available as living realities
for us today. There are signs that the goddess now
requires to be worshipped in spirit and in truth through
the law written in our hearts, rather than in temples
built with hands. One old truth is that man and woman,
though different, are equal parts of a consciously
androgynous whole that is each person's potential
reality. Many people, shown photographs of the
Black Virgin for the first time, comment on how
masculine some of them look." (Ean Begg, The Cult
of the Black Virgin) - 272:13,134

Notre Dame de Meymac

Meymac, Correze, France
Notre Dame de Meymac, also known as the
Black Madonna of Meymac is believed to have been
carved sometime during the 11th century. The Black
Virgin has very large hands and a red cloak; and has
been called one of the strangest and most interesting
Black Madonnas to date. The Child is dressed in red
with bare feet, and sits between the Madonna's
knees, holding a closed book in his left hand.
This Black Virgin was once part of the 11th
century treasure of Benedictine priory of Saint
Andrew, originally a hermitage in and during the
Merovingian Dynasty...
This is one of the Madonnas of the Fisher
Kings, the Merovingian line of Mystic Kings,
keepers of the Grail Bloodline.
Black Madonnas are believed to be pre-Christian
archetypes whose child-nurturing focus is the
embodiment of the pre-historic Great Mother.
A very powerful and important Madonna, She
regally sits an impressive 8.5 inches tall. This gothic
style icon is found in the French village of Correze.-

 Notre-Dame de Montserrat
La Moreneta * Montserrat Katalonien, Spain

"Beyond general style, the genre of the statue is

certainly that of an 'enthroned virgin', typical of the
earliest icons of Mary. On behalf of Madonna and
Child representations, Stephen Benko notes: It is
well known that the iconography of Isis and [her
son] Horus was basically adopted by Christians
when they started to portray Mary and Jesus as
Mother and Child.' Benko adds that Isis was
sometimes 'pictured as black'... the Montserrat
figures [and] over 1,000 of the world's better known
Madonnas are black...
"...Montserrat is located in Spain, not in France
where St. Bernard of Clairvaux (the nephew of one
of the original nine Knight Templars) and others
produced well-known commentaries on the
Canticles. Perhaps the image was created black to
represent some esoteric religious symbolism. Ean
Begg notes that the Shrine of Montserrat is among
the best candidates for former sanctuaries for the
Holy Grail. Further, in the twelfth and thirteenth
centuries esoteric Christian sects proliferated,
though not primarily in Spain." - 925

"Whoever the enigmatic

Black Virgin may be, she
holds a powerful attraction for
her millions of devotees
around the world. Her sacred
sites stand on highly charged
earth energy centers,
enhanced by megalithic ley-
lines and sacred architecture.

"From ancient times to

present, people have
undertaken pilgrimages to her
shrines as a way to explore her
mysteries and to enable her to
do her miraculous work of
healing, transformation and
inspiration. France has more
than 300 Black Virgin sites,
with over 150 Black Virgins
still in existence."

Will Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair be revealed as the reincarnation of Horus, i.e. Nimrod,
who will at last unite the world under Lucifer? Recall that the myth of Horus is a distortion of
 who will at last unite the world under Lucifer? Recall that the myth of Horus is a distortion of
the Genesis account of God's judgment on the Tower of Babel. (Gen. 10 and 11) Not happy
with this arrangement, New Agers anticipate the return of Horus as the reincarnation of Nimrod
who will finally unite mankind in a glorious revolution which dethrones God.

"Like the goddess Isis, who found and restored all of the lost pieces of her husband,
Osiris, many are restoring the unity of all life, bringing together the separate parts
of humanity—different races, religions and cultures." - 42:62

ISIS — GODDESS OF THE THRONE

"The Black Virgin, [Pierre Plantard] insists, is Isis and her name is Notre-Dame de Lumière." -
272:14

"I AM Nature... The universal

Mother, Mistress of all the elements,
primordial child of time, sovereign of
all things spiritual, Queen of the
dead, Queen also of the immortals,
the single manifestation of all gods
and goddesses that are. The primeval
Phrygians call me Pessinuntica, or
Cybele, Mother of the gods; the
Althenians, sprung from their own
soil, call me Cecropian Artemis; for
the islanders of Cypress I AM
Paphian Aphrodite; for the archers of
Crete I AM Dictynna, for the
trilingual Sicilians, Stygian
Persephone, and for the Elusinians,
their Ancient Mother of the Corn,
Demeter.
"Some know me as Juno, some as
Bellona of the Battles; others as
Hecate, others again as Rhamnusia,
Nemesis, But both races of
Aethiopians, whose land the morning
Sun first shines upon, and the
Egyptians who excel in ancient
learning and worship me with
ceremonies proper to my god-head
call me by my true Name, namely,
Queen Isis." - 925

Isis is an onomatopoeic Asianic word, Ish-ish, meaning 'she who weeps'. Ezekiel 8 can be
understood as a reference to Israel's participation in the Babylonian worship of Tammuz, the
reborn Nimrod who, like Nimrod and Osiris, suffered an untimely death.

"Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD'S house which was
toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz." - Ezek. 8:14

"Unfortunately, the youthful Tammuz (also known as Adonis, meaning 'lord,' in

classical mythology) met an untimely death at the tusk of a wild boar. Here legend
overtakes history altogether. Some accounts say that after three days Tammuz
 overtakes history altogether. Some accounts say that after three days Tammuz
miraculously resurrected himself; others say that the grief-stricken Ishtar journeyed
far into the netherworld to find him. After many days she succeeded, but during her
absence the passion of love ceased to operate and all of life on earth languished in
mourning. By all accounts, when the lamenting was over, Tammuz was firmly
ensconced as the new god of the sun, and his renown eventually exceeded even
Nimrod's.
"Every year following Tammuz' tragic death and presumed ascension to the sun,
the forty days preceding Ishtar's festival were set aside for fasting and self-
affliction to commemorate his suffering and death. (It was this practice, 'weeping
for Tammuz,' that God called an abomination in Ezekiel 8:13, 14.) At the end of
this period of mourning the people would waken early on the first day of the week
and travel to the highest hills near their homes. There they would present their
offerings of wine, meat, and incense and prostrate themselves before the rising sun,
exclaiming 'Our lord is risen!' Then would commence the festivities of Ishtar,
queen of heaven and goddess of fertility. In preparation for this high celebration,
the people would make small cakes, inscribing them with a cross (a pagan fertility
symbol), for baking in the sun and eating as part of their ritual. The day would
conclude in orgiastic revelry of a most debasing sort, and often included human
sacrifices." (1002)

Isis is the Greek form of more ancient Egyptian names; originally, Isis was known as Aset, or Eset
which, in Egyptian, means 'Throne or Seat'. Black Virgins are traditionally seated on thrones in a
manner similar to icons of the Egyptian Isis. Isis is typically represented as a woman wearing on
her head the hieroglyphic symbol of her [Egyptian] name, which represents a throne or seat. Her
original headdress was an empty throne chair belonging to her murdered husband, Osiris.

"Among the Egyptians, Isis is often represented with a headdress consisting of the
empty throne chair of her murdered husband, and this peculiar structure was
accepted during certain dynasties as her hieroglyphic." - Manly P. Hall, Masonic,
Hermetic, Quabbalistic & Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy

Isis represents the dynastic seat of authority whose offspring are destined by their
birthright to rule as kings. ISIS is THE THRONE.

Throne of Isis
Definition: The headdress of the Egyptian goddess Isis. Isis is the Greek derivative
of the Egyptian name Aset, (or Auset), meaning throne or seat of authority. Isis was
the embodiment of authority, and divine right to rule was by her authority. Osiris
reborn is often depicted as an infant on the lap of Isis, where she is the literal
personification of a throne. - 918

"As a later identity of Isis with Horus, she shows how papal and kingly thrones all
hark back to the lap of Isis upon which sits enthroned the child-god. Each gave
birth to savior gods who would die and be reborn in annual cycles (a parallel to the
Demeter/Kore myth), and our modern festivals of Christmas and Easter re-celebrate
this primeval human rite. Depicted as black virgin, this Madonna incorporates
aspects of Kali. Medieval cathedrals (called in France 'Notre Dame'—literally, 'Our
Lady') are venerations of the ancient Great Goddess' majesty." - 928

"Isis was the embodiment of authority, and divine right to rule was by her authority... papal and
kingly thrones all hark back to the lap of Isis." The divine right of kings would explain the
longevity of the cult of Isis and her esteem among royalty who believe themselves to be
descendants of a divinity. Lewis Spence wrote in Ancient Egyptian Myths and Legends that the
cult of Isis has survived from the dynastic period of Egypt through the Classical period and
 cult of Isis has survived from the dynastic period of Egypt through the Classical period and
Holy Roman Empire and is, today, principally carried on in Paris, the location of the Prieuré de
Sion.

"Isis, or Ast, must be regarded as one of the earliest and most important
conceptions of female godhead in ancient Egypt. In the dynastic period she was
regarded as the feminine counterpart of Osiris, and we may take it that before the
dawn of Egyptian history she occupied a similar position... No other deity has
probably been worshipped for such an extent of time, for her cult did not perish
with that of most other Egyptian gods, but flourished later in Greece and Rome,
and is seriously carried on in Paris to-day." (995)

Peter Dawkins wrote in The Great Vision that, in Cabalistic mysticism, the Throne (Isis) also
represents the Temple in which the union of the Virgin Soul (the initiate) to the Spirit (Lucifer)
takes place. This union, which is achieved only by the highest adepts and masters, produces the
Christ Child who is the 'living embodiment of Light', which Dawkins states is the meaning of
Horus. In other words, Horus is the incarnation of the 'Spirit' Lucifer.

"The Enthroned Lady or Heavenly Queen is the ancient title of Isis, the virgin
mother of Horus, as also of Mary, the virgin mother of Jesus. The hieroglyphic
symbol of Isis used by the Ancient Egyptians was that of a throne—Isis being the
actual throne or seat upon which the child Horus sits as King of Light (the Sun
King). The same symbol is employed in Christian iconography, and Mary is
pourtrayed as the 'throne' or 'seat', with the Christ Child seated in her lap, his head
aligned with her heart. It is a carefully constructed and important symbol, revealing
many mysteries.
"In the Hebraic cabbala, the Throne is described as the Merkabah or Throne of
Glory—the perfect dwelling place of the Lord. It is the supreme and pure
Tabernacle or Temple in which the Messianic Presence of the Lord God may dwell
and be manifest. That is to say, it is the perfect form of divine manifestation, the
virgin Soul, Bride to the Spirit. The sublime union of the receptive, responsive
Bride with the active, creative Spirit produces (i.e. gives birth to) the Messiah as
the Christ Child, the living embodiment of Light (which is what the word Jesus or
Horus means). In biblical terms it means that the 'living soul', Adam, becomes a
'life-giving Spirit', Christ: the former being a receptacle of life, the latter being a
creator of life, in the same symbolic sense that a moon may become a sun, or a
light-receiving vessel may transform itself into a light-producing star. Out of the
cosmic form of Nature are born the shining Sons of Light. (902:70)

In preparation for the occult New Age of the Spirit, the high level initiates who have infiltrated the
Laodicean Church will attempt to palm off Lucifer as the Holy Spirit, in accordance with the
Manichean tradition that the Holy Spirit is the transformed Lucifer. Eventually, the Virgin-Bride
(Isis) is 'married' to the Christ Child (Horus), who is the incarnation of her husband/brother, Osiris,
aka Lucifer, the Spirit with whom she united:

"The Temple, synonymous with the Throne, was also used as a hieroglyph for Isis,
the Virgin Mother or Soul. When the Temple is so filled with the Presence of God that
it is set on fire with divine love and light (which a perfect Temple will be), then it
becomes, or is, a pyre of flame—a 'Pyramid'. And in becoming a pyre of light, it
moves, it becomes active. The Throne becomes a Chariot. The motionless Temple
becomes a living Flame.
"Just as a flame enables light to be manifested as a blazing orb or sun of radiant
light, so the perfect Soul enables the Spirit to become fully manifest as the Christ
Child. Just as the central orb of light sits enthroned in the midst of the flame, shining
its radiance or glory all around, so the Christ Child sits as a King of Glory upon His
Throne: Horus sits upon Isis; Jesus sits upon Mary; the Christ Consciousness sits upon
man's soul. Then, just as the flame becomes identified with the light, swallowed up
 man's soul. Then, just as the flame becomes identified with the light, swallowed up
by its glory, so the Mother becomes identified with her Child, 'assumed' and
'married', as it were to her Son... In Christian symbology, Jesus seated upon the lap
of his Mother, or Jesus enthroned in the centre of the Vesica Piscis (the 'flame-vessel
of the Fish'), mean the same. It is the revelation of the Supreme Mystery or Gnosis; the
revelation of Christ, the Son or Light of God; the revelation of the Divine Idea or
Divine Consciousness, which is Truth.
"The Christ Child is the Sun-King, and his Throne or Mother is the Kingdom of
Heaven, the Empire of Peace and Plenty that is bathed in the golden glory of Christ
Consciousness. It is, or can be, both individual and universal, Jerusalem (meaning 'the
Great Peace') is another name for the Kingdom. Old Jerusalem is the Mother—the
psyche; New Jerusalem is the Mother with Child—the 'heavenly' or beautiful Soul that
has attained Christ Consciousness." (902:70)

According to a Masonic source, The Hiram Key, there was a prophecy given by a Teacher of
Righteousness to the Gnostic Essene Community of Qumran, which was associated with the
Society of Ormus, that two messianic figures of the end time would have the following titles:

"...The man who would lead them at the 'End of the Age', the Davidic Messiah, had
such titles as 'Mighty Man', 'Man of Glory', 'Prince of Light'... God, however, will
save his people by the hands of two messianic figures who arise at the end of time;
one from 'Branch of David', and the other 'The Interpreter of the Law'." - 162:201

The symbology of the light and the glory applies to Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair on several
levels. Firstly, Saint-Clair is French for holy light:

"The name Saint-Clair is derived from the Latin Sanctus Clarus, meaning 'Holy
Light'." - 29:297

The word 'clairvoyant' is derived from Latin words meaning to see the light, not merely in the
sense of a realization, but in the mystical sense of actually seeing living entities (light beings)
in the spiritual realm.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary
Main Entry: clair·voy·ant
Etymology: French, from clair clear (from Latin clarus) + voyant, present
participle of voir to see, from Latin vidEre

"Clairvoyance. The faulty of seeing with the inner eye or spiritual sight... Real
clairvoyance means the faculty of seeing through the densest matter (the latter
disappearing at the will and before the spiritual eye of the Seer), and irrespective of
time (past, present and future) or distance." - 316:85

The surname Saint-Clair esoterically denotes a bloodline of high level initiates who have
experienced union with Lucifer. The designation of young Thomas as the Horus-King means that
he is the living embodiment of the Light, i.e., Lucifer. In the mystery religion of ancient Egypt,
Horus was the offspring of Isis and Osiris who were fraternal twins before they became husband
and wife. This arrangement, of course, was incest—a practice not uncommon among the ancient
gods and goddesses. Set and Nephthys were brother and sister as were King Arthur and Morgaine,
who are regarded by the Merovingians as divine descendants of Jesus Christ, and the offspring of
the latter unholy union, Modred, was believed to be the 'Celtic Christ'. Laurence Gardner
rationalizes that King Arthur's sexual union with his sister was not really incestuous, but rather a
rebirth of the ancient archetypal androgynous Godhead:

"Writers have sometimes deemed Arthur's sexual relationship with his half-sister
Morgaine to be incestuous—but this is not the way it was regarded in Celtic
Britain. At that time, the anciently perceived dual nature of God prevailed, as did
 the equally ancient principle of the 'sacred sister-bride—so revered in the holy
ritual of Mesopotamia. In this regard, the Prayer of the Celts began, 'Our Father-
Mother in the heavens'. In conjunction with this, specifically defined rites were
performed to denote the mortal incarnation of the 'dual male-female entity'. As the
earthly manifestation of the goddess Cerridwin,...Morgaine represented the female
aspect of the duality. Arthur was her true male counterpart in the established royal
tradition of the Pharaohs. On the festival of Beltane (the spring equinox), Arthur
was apprehended as a god in human form and obliged to participate in a ritual of
sacred intercourse between the twin aspects of the incarnate Father-Mother. In
view of Arthur and Morgaine's supposed divinity during this rite, any male
offspring from the union would be deemed the 'Celtic Christ', and would be duly
anointed as such. By virtue of this, although Arthur was destined to become the
prominent subject of romantic history, it was his son Modred who held the highest
spiritual position: he was designated Christ of Britain; the ordained Archpriest of
the Sacred Kindred, and an anointed Fisher King.... Contrary to all myth and
legend, it was the dying Archpriest Modred (not Arthur) who was carried from the
field by his mother Morgaine's Holy Sisters." - 29:205-6

The occult traditions glorify incest for other reasons that defy logic, but then occultists typically
glorify the irrational or subjective over logical and objective ways of thinking. Cathy Burns
explains in her book, Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated, another reason for the exaltation of
incest.

"Occultist and psychologist Carl Jung, adds: 'Alchemy...exalted the most heinous
transgression of the law, namely incest, into a symbol of the union of opposites,
hoping in this way to bring back the golden age." - 39:177

In other words, when mankind reaches the nadir of its depravity, the divine spark within each man
will generate an opposing impulse toward transformation and the Golden Age will begin—this
Utopia of peace and prosperity into which the Grail King will lead mankind. Based on this
esoteric concept, which is discussed further in Libra, the Antichrist must exemplify the reprobate
condition to which mankind must stoop in order for the transformation to begin. Utter madness!
says the rational man. However, sensible persons may be assured that behind the irrational belief
system of the occult is the archenemy of mankind, Lucifer, scheming to provoke God's wrath on
the human race.

Returning to the concept of twins, the meaning of 'Thomas' happens to be twin:

Merriam-Webster Dictionary
Main Entry: Thom·as
Pronunciation: 'tä-m&s
Function: noun
Etymology: Greek ThOmas, from Hebrew t'Om twin

At this point, we ask the reader to carefully compare the pictures below. On the left is a
photograph of the parents of William Cooper which appears in the Foreword of his book, Behold a
Pale Horse. The photo is undated, but William Cooper, who was their firstborn, arrived into this
world in 1943. On the right is the previous photo of Pierre and Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair
which was taken in 1979.
Are these photographs younger and older versions of the SAME MAN???

Thomas is said to be 10 years old in the 1979 photo, although he looks younger. Pierre Plantard,
born in 1920, would have been 59, old enough to be Thomas's grandfather. Thomas would seem to
be the grandson, not the son, of the deceased Éminence grise. If this is the case, then who was
Thomas' father? William Cooper was the eldest of three children, his sister and brother being
fraternal twins named Connie and Ronnie. Their pictures along with William's and some revealing
family information are presented in the Foreword to Cooper's book.
In our opinion, Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair bears a remarkable resemblance to William
Cooper's sister, Connie, who is two years younger than her elder brother. Connie would now be 59
and Thomas would be around 33 years of age. As outrageous as this hypothesis may seem, if
William Cooper's father is not Milton Cooper but Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair, it is within the
realm of possibility that Thomas is the son of Connie, and not Pierre. Curiously, according to
Cooper, Connie's husband is also named Ron, the name of her twin brother. Another coincidence,
King Arthur's biographer, Geoffrey of Monmouth, wrote of this former Grail King, who was the
son of Uther Pendragon, that Arthur defeated his enemies with a lance named 'Ron'.

“Arthur himself,” as Geoffrey of Monmouth relates, “dressed in a breastplate worthy

of so great a king, places on his head a golden helmet engraved with the semblance of
a dragon. Over his shoulders he throws his shield called Priwen, on which a picture of
the Holy Virgin constantly recalled her to his memory. Girt with Caliburn, a most
excellent sword, and fabricated in the isle of Avalon, he graces his right hand with the
lance named Ron. This was a long and broad spear, well contrived for slaughter.”

We venture to state further that if Thomas Plantard de Saint-Claire, the Grand Master of the
Prieuré de Sion is, esoterically speaking, the reincarnation of Horus, his mother would represent
Isis, whose twin brother was also her husband.

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Pierre Plantard spent time in a Nazis prison.
 "Let us remember that during the Occupation, he was arrested, suffered torture by the
Gestapo and was interned as a political prisoner for long months... He was imprisoned
by the Gestapo for more than a year, from October 1943 until the end of 1944."
( 31:221-2)

Whether Plantard was a prisoner or a willing participant in Nazi genetic experimentation is the
question. During the Holocaust, Josef Mengele, Hitler's Angel of Death, conducted countless
experiments on sets of Jewish twins. From the book, Children of the Flames: Doctor Josef
Mengele and the Untold Story of the Twins of the Holocaust, we found this disturbing account:

"Josef Mengele, aka Auschwitz's 'Angel of Death,' held a fascination with twins.
As Auschwitz's senior 'physician' he conducted 'genetic experiments' on nearly
1500 sets of twins between 1943 and 1944...
"Of the 3000 twins who passed through Mengele's labs, only 200 survived the
war. Depending on the type of experiment endured by the twins, they were driven
to various labs at Auschwitz or neighboring Birkenau camp. Most received routine
blood and x-ray tests, often on a daily basis... Mengele's experiments were both
physical and psychological; experimental surgeries performed without anesthesia,
transfusions of blood from one twin to another, isolation endurance, reaction to
various stimuli, injections with lethal germs, sex change operations, the removal of
organs and limbs, incestuous impregnations... Mengele injected chemicals into the
eyes of children in an attempt to change their eye color...
"Unfortunately a strict veil of secrecy over the experiments enabled Mengele to
do his work more effectively, and 'twins who were subjected to the most grusome
procedures took his secrets to their graves.' The full extent of his grusome work
will never be known because the records he sent to Dr. Von Verschuer at the Kaiser
Wilhelm Institute were shipped out 'in two truckloads' and destroyed by the latter.
Any remaining notes Mengele carried with him on his escape to South America and
those were never found...
"Mengele...also attempted to change the sex of some twins. Female twins were
sterilized; males were castrated. What was the point of these ghoulish experiments?
No one, either the child-victims, nor the adult witnesses, ever really knew." -
381:70

Note that Dr. Mengele's experiments were conducted for genetics purposes and occurred between
1943 and 1944, the exact years Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was incarcerated by the Nazis. Might
Pierre Plantard have been involved in some capacity in Mengele's experiments on twins? Was M.
Plantard/Milton Cooper and/or his wife genetically manipulated to conceive twins? Or were
Connie and Ronnie, born in 1945, the products of in vitro fertilization, carefully controlled to
produce twins? Or...was genetic manipulation performed to restructure the twins' DNA so they
would produce an androgyne in the future, which we believe Thomas may be. Who knows what
genetic engineering was possible in 1943-4 or what was accomplished in the Nazi eugenics
institutes. The possibilities are legion.

The following allegation comes from a website debunking Pierre Plantard and the Prieuré de Sion,
which is one method of damage control when the truth somehow gets exposed. One thing seems
certain. Sexual perversion is not uncommon in the Merovingian dynasty.

“...in 1957, possibly...Plantard had been arrested and tried for pedophilia or kidnapping
of a child. This charge was made later by the supposedly Jewish ex-member of the
Priory of Sion, Jean-Luc Chaumeil, whose rather incoherent letters to Paul Smith are
now carried on Smith’s website at http://smithpp0.tripod.com/psp/id98.html. Henry
Lincoln chose to disregard this charge as a 'vicious libel.'... But even if it is true that
Plantard was at one time arrested and tried for some sort of sexual deviance regarding
children (assuming that this is not just a smear), this does not affect Plantard’s (or the
story’s) insistence that he was of Merovingian descent. In fact, it ironically makes that
pedigree more likely, since the inbreeding of aristocrats has long been suspected as a
 pedigree more likely, since the inbreeding of aristocrats has long been suspected as a
cause of degeneracy among them. A sexually perverse Plantard is, ironically, a more
credible Merovingian!...” - 1085

THE SACRED MARRIAGE

Mark Twain wrote, "Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to
possibilities; Truth isn't." In the irrational world of the occult, the realities are indeed more bizarre
than fiction. The driving force behind the pornography industry is the vast network of secret
societies who conduct their lucrative operations legally through tax-funded intelligence
organizations. Masterminded and directed by Lucifer, these clandestine organizations sponsored
the sexual revolution which, bankrolled by the CIA's drug running syndicate, was designed to
destroy moral standards and family values, foster anarchy and eventually to eliminate distinctions
of gender, as well as good and evil. To comprehend this collective flight from reason, we must
project ourselves into the subjective mindset of the occult underground, where right and wrong are
what the Luciferian adepts pronounce them to be, where virginity has nothing at all to do with
sexual purity, which in fact it rejects, and to comprehend, if at all possible, to what lengths the
demonized race of Merovingians, having delusions of divinity, will go to produce a human vessel
worthy of incarnation by their androgynous god, Lucifer. Truth — Veritas — is indeed stranger
than Fiction.

Thomas Plantard de Saint-Claire would have been born circa 1969-71, when Connie and Ronnie
were in their mid-twenties. Found in a biography of Pierre Plantard is evidence that Thomas may
also be a twin, as his name indicates. The following is an English translation of Pierre Plantard's
bio from the French; the brackets show the French wording for purposes of clarity.

1981 Election of Pierre [Plantard Grand] Master of the Priory of Sion.

An article is published in [l'Est républicain] introducing Thomas and Irmine

February 1
[PLANTARD] like "the two young descendants of Clovis..." - 932

Thomas sister, Irmine, is almost certainly named after St. Irmine (c. 726), the Abbess d'Oeren
who was the daughter of Dagobert II, the last Merovingian king, and half-sister of Sigisbert IV
(676-758), who fled to Rennes le Chateau. We are told that, on 17 January, Sigebert IV, known
as the 'Plant-Ard', escaped assassination and took refuge in his mother's home at Rennes-le-
Chateau in Razès. This event was recorded by 'St. Irmine' in a parchment that was placed in a
vessel containing the head of Dagobert, which was later discovered by Abbé Bérenger Saunière,
the central character of Holy Blood, Holy Grail. The following is a translation of an extract
from a special issue of "Studies of the Merovingians" devoted to Dagobert II:

"The ciborium would have contained, a parchment written by Sainte IRMINE,

abbess d'OEREN, in 708. (Let us point out qu'lRMINE was the girl of
DAGOBERT II). She recalls l'assassinat of her father DAGOBERT II, the stay of
her half-brother SIGEBERT IV with the monastery d'OEREN, then her refuge,
January 17 681 with RHEDAE, capital of the RAZÈS (country d'origine of
GISELE, second wife of DAGOBERT). The RAZÈS belonged to Marquisat of
GOTHIE, in our current South-west..." (996)

Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was elected to the Prieuré de Sion on 17 January 1981. The
Prieuré always convenes for selection of Grand Masters on 17 January, the month of the god
Janus, who is symbolized with two heads representing twins. 'Janus' may be etymologically
related to 'John/Jean', the esoteric name of all Grand Masters of the Prieuré. Fifteen days after
his election as Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion, on the feast of Imbolc, Pierre Plantard de
Saint-Clair introduced Thomas and Irmine Plantard as being "like the two young descendants of
Clovis." (For the record, Clovis I is the legendary King Arthur) Are Thomas and Irmine twins,
as the name Thomas suggests? Richard H. Allen wrote, in Star Names: Their Lore and
Meaning, that as the zodiac spread from Babylonia to Greece and Egypt, its symbolism
Meaning, that as the zodiac spread from Babylonia to Greece and Egypt, its symbolism
changed. The Hindus knew the Gemini Twins, Castor and Pollux, as the Twin Deities or
Dioscouri; in Egypt they became 'Two Sprouting Plants' pictured as twins who symbolized the
sun and moon.

"Some of the Jews ascribed [the Gemini Twins] to the tribe of Benjamin,... The
Egyptians as Two Sprouting Plants; and Brown reproduces a Euphratean
representation of a couple of small, naked, male child-figures, one standing upon
its head and the other standing upon the former, feet to feet; the original twins
being the sun and moon, when the one is up the other is generally down." (927:223-
4)

The feast of Lupercalia, the Roman counterpart to Imbolc—the day on which Thomas and
Irmine Plantard de Saint-Claire made their debut in the French press—was celebrated in honor
of Romulus and Remus—the twin gods who founded Rome.

"Midwinter (early February) was the time of many ancient Pagan festivals, which
have continued under Christian guises. The wild Lupercalia of ancient Rome was
replaced by the austere Festival of the Purification of the Virgin, or Candlemas....
The Celtic Imbolc, or Brigid, is a time for purification and new beginnings...
Imbolc anticipates spring, although the vernal equinox is seven weeks away. The
word Imbolc refers to the pregnant condition of ewes at Midwinter. Their fertility
was a good sign to the ancient Celts who depended on sheep for food and
clothing... South and east of the British Isles ancient Romans celebrated the
Lupercalia in honor of Lupa, the she-wolf who nursed Romulus and Remus who
were considered Rome's founding twins. Orgiastic rites were performed to honor
her in the Grotto of the She-Wolf to insure fertility in the coming year. After these
rites, naked youth traveled to neighboring towns to purify them according to
Barbara Walker in The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets." - 933

The gods and goddesses of ancient and classical mythology were often twins as were the kings
and queens they supposedly incarnated.

"Often, the androgyne appeared in myth as male-female twins born simultaneously,

e.g. Isis-Osiris, Jana-Janus, Diana-Dianus, Fauna-Faunus, Helen-Helenus or
Artemis-Apollo, the 'moon and sun' united in their Mother’s womb." (934)

"The twins or brother gods in Sumeria [were] called Enki and Enlil. Enki, the
infernal of the two, represents Set and Enlil represents Horus (although in this
context Enlil would also be Osiris.)" (571)

The sacred marriage ritual required sexual union between male and female siblings; fraternal
twins of a divine bloodline were the preferred stock. In esoteric astrology, the Gemini Twins
represented 'sacred marriage' between fraternal twins. Sacred marriage in the original Tarot card
deck refers to incest between siblings, especially twins, as typified by the astrological sign of
Gemini.

"Astrologically, The Lovers is principally related to Venus, the goddess of air,

and Gemini which, in esoteric astrology, she rules. Importantly, Gemini is also the
first sign of relationship in the zodiac; the relationship between siblings...
"The Lovers follows a series of five very important, very powerful [Tarot] cards,
three of which are masculine and two feminine. When it appears in a reading
therefore, The Lovers can signal some sort of synthesis between the different
aspects of make and female that each of the previous cards represents. It signifies a
sense of challenge, newness, opposition and heightened awareness; and an
integration between the powerful forces that have been unleashed and experienced
(sometimes unconsciously) to this point...
 (sometimes unconsciously) to this point...
"The sense of duality inherent in The Lovers is strengthened through its
association with Gemini, the sign of The Twins.... According to the myth of Castor
and Pollux, the story behind the constellation of Gemini, when the mortal Castor
died, his immortal twin brother Pollux begged his father to let him join Castor in
the Underworld. His father Zeus agreed, on the proviso that they spent half their
time in the Underworld and half in the heavens.
"...Gemini draws our attention to the importance of sibling relationships, and to
their powerful impact on the patterning of all our relationships with friends and
lovers. The two lovers in the Waite-Smith deck represent...an arrangement of the
brother-sister pair; one aspect of which is the 'sacred marriage', the marriage
between brother and sister. The 'sacred marriage' of The Lovers really represents a
relationship of equality between two individuals, a type of relationship that is
largely absent from the Major Arcana." (851)

The purpose of the sacred marriage is to produce the 'divine androgen', i.e., 'The Christ'. A set
of twins not being a true androgen—the Gnostic ideal—the twins must somehow become one.
If the twins can be fused, according to the highly irrational thinking of occultists, androgyny
will be achieved. This is accomplished through the 'sacred marriage' ritual. The rationale behind
this ludicrous concept is that integration of the sexes will lead humanity back to the chaos of
Genesis 1:2, the undifferentiated unity that existed before Creation. (The false hope of the
occultist lies in recreating aeons of the past, rather than pressing on to the high calling in Christ
Jesus, which the blessed hope of the Christian.) That the fusion of male and female twins to
form an androgyne is a foundational principle of the secret doctrine is stated in reputable
sources such as the Encyclopedia of Religion:

"...androgynes may be regarded as 'good,' in the sense of symbolically successful,

when the image presents a convincing fusion of the two polarities and as 'bad' when
the graft fails to 'take' visually or philosophically—that is, when it is a mere
juxtaposition of opposites rather than a true fusion... 'Bad' androgynes often turn out,
on closer inspection, to be not true androgynes but pseudo-androgynes... These
liminal creatures include...male-female twins.
"Perhaps the most important way in which androgynes may be split into two groups,
as it were, is in terms of their way of coming into existence. Some are the result of the
fusing of separates, male and female; others are born in a fused form and
subsequently separated into a male and a female...
"In the mythology of mysticism...chaos is positive; the desire to merge back into
chaos is the goal of human existence, the supreme integration toward which one
strives. In many rituals, too, androgyny is 'a symbolic restoration of 'Chaos', of the
undifferentiated unity that proceeded the Creation, and this return to the homogenous
takes the form of supreme regeneration, a prodigious increase of power'...
"The fusing type of androgyne is originally created as a male and female in
isolation and must fuse in order to create. The separate components are barren, only
the androgyne is creative... The most common variant of the theme of the fusing
androgyne is the Two-in-One or hierogamy (i.e., sacred marriage)...
"...Many myths point out that the permanently fused androgyne is, technically, the
one creature in the world who is certain to be unable to copulate. As Alan Watts has
remarked, the androgyne symbolizes a state 'in which the erotic no longer has to be
sought or pursued, because it is always present in its totality." - 146:277-78
("Androgynes")

The final paragraph sounds eerily like the description of the Antichrist in Daniel 11:37:

"Neither shall he regard...the desire of women...for he shall magnify himself above all."

As if this wickedness were not sufficiently evil, the androgynous Antichrist will be the pattern
for all mankind. Alice Bailey stated, "The Plan is concerned with rebuilding mankind."
 for all mankind. Alice Bailey stated, "The Plan is concerned with rebuilding mankind."
(148:145) Danilou implies in The Phallus, Sacred Symbol of Male Creative Power that the
evolutionary process requires the elimination of gender distinctions until androgyny is the norm:
"The goal toward which the human species should aim is the progressive reintegration of the
sexes until androgyny is obtained. The evolved being tends toward bisexuality." - 102:113

The Antichrist's false religious system, including a counterfeit 144,000, will no doubt model the
neutered Christianity of the new Gnosticism:

"With regard to Rev. 14:4 ('Those are they that are not defiled with women; for
they are virgins') [Georg] Koepgen asserts, 'Here the new androgynous form of
existence becomes visible. Christianity is neither male nor female, it is male-female
in the sense that the male paired with the female in Jesus' soul. In Jesus the tension
and polaristic strife of sex are resolved in an androgynous unity. And the Church,
as his heir, has taken this over from him; She too is androgynous.'" - 146:281

THE GRAIL KING

It is fitting that the sign of Virgo, representing the androgyne or hermaphrodite, is symbolized
by the six-pointed star.

"The six-pointed Star refers to the six Forces or Powers of Nature, the six planes,
principles, etc., etc. all synthesized by the seventh, or the central point in the Star.
All these, the upper and lower hierarchies included, emanate from the 'Heavenly or
Celestial Virgin,' the great mother in all religions, the Androgyne, the Sephīrāh-
Adam-Kadmon." (Blavatsky) - 209:215 (Vol. I)

Cirlot's Dictionary of Symbols reveals that the six-pointed star signals the birth of a god:

"Since [Virgo] is governed by Mercury and corresponds to the number six it is

symbolic of hermaphroditism, or that state which is characterized by dual - positive
and negative - forces. Hence Virgo is sometimes depicted with the symbol of the
soul or the Seal of Solomon (two triangles, representing fire and water,
superimposed and intersecting to form a six-pointed star)... In mythology and in
religions generally, this symbol is always associated with the birth of a god or a
demi-god, as the supreme expression of the dynamic consciousness..." - 48:360-361

The Mark of the Beast will be a symbolic representation of the Antichrist's own androgynous
state (which is why he is called a 'beast') and the "transformed" condition of humanity under the
perverse influence and governance of this demigod. The Antichrist's declaration of 'peace and
safety' takes on new meaning when we understand that the "transformation of mankind" will
bring God's wrath upon the world:

"The six-pointed star is a symbol of the lost archetype of The Sacred Marriage,
representing the balance of male and female among others and essential for our
personal and planetary healing." - 285

"As stated previously, alchemy was not primarily the search for a metallurgic
formula to turn lead into gold. The primary texts of the old master alchemists refer
to the transmutation of a natural person into a spiritual person.... The crucible
is life itself, and the goal is union with God. The transformed person is one who
finds the 'philosopher's stone', often equated with wisdom... In some alchemical
texts, this wisdom is illustrated with the symbol [of the six-pointed star]. Here
again we find the sacred 'union of opposites' and holiness/wholeness illustrated by
the hexagram...
"Jewish rabbinical tradition teaches that the Ark of the Covenant kept in the
Holy of Holies of Solomon's Temple on Mount Sion contained not only the tablets
on which the Ten Commandments were inscribed, but also a 'man and a woman
 on which the Ten Commandments were inscribed, but also a 'man and a woman
locked in intimacy in the form of a hexagram.' This tradition articulates the
fundamental basis of Hebrew society; the tablets represent the precepts of the
covenant, and the hexagram symbolizes the 'hieros gamos', the intimate union of
the opposites. The meaning of the hexagram is summed up in the Hebrew word
'shalom' meaning 'peace and well-being.' It is still the prayer of the universe.
"Recent research about the feminine aspect of God in the Hebrew tradition
reveals that the Holy of Holies was the marriage chamber where the union of
Yahweh, the unseen Holy One, with his feminine counterpart, the Shekinah, was
consummated. With the destruction of the Temple, so goes the Jewish myth, the
relationship of Yahweh and Shekinah...was ruptured, and Yahweh returned to the
heavens to reign alone. Meanwhile his bride roamed the earth in exile, like the
community of Israel in Diaspora...
"We find this Sister-Bride, still searching for her lost Bridegroom, in the Song
of Songs... Up until the thirteenth century, the Bride was often associated with
Mary Magdalene. And the sacred [six-pointed star] remained in the rabbinical
tradition as the preeminent symbol for the Sacred Marriage, a promise of harmony
and well-being...
"...this emblem was a sign of the age to come." - 936:164-166

Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair died in the year 2000 on the day following Imbolc (February 1-2):
"...Pierre Plantard...[was] deceased on...February 3, 2000...at eleven hours ten minutes." (375)
Imbolc is one of four major Druidic feasts which involve ritual human sacrifice. Recall that "The
Celtic Imbolc...is a time for purification and new beginnings... Imbolc anticipates spring, although
the vernal equinox is seven weeks away. The word Imbolc refers to the pregnant condition of ewes
at Midwinter." Consider the timing of events in the life and death of Pierre Plantard de Saint-
Claire:

"On January 22, 1981, a short article appeared in the French press... 'A veritable secret
society of 121 dignitaries, the Prieuré de Sion... convened its Convent at Blois on 17
January 1981... As a result of this Convent at Blois, Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was
elected grand master of the Order...'" (31:214)
"Vaincre is now [1998] the title of the Priory's internal bulletin, which Pierre de Saint-
Clair edits with his son Thomas." (242:37)
"...Pierre Plantard...[was] deceased on...February 3, 2000...at eleven hours ten minutes."
(375)
"...Percival becomes the king of the Grail when the planet Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and
Mercury get together." (127:48)
"...5 May of the year 2000... a date when for the first time in 6,000 years all the planets of
our solar system will be arrayed in practically a straight line across space," (127:53)
"17 June 2000... His son, Thomas Plantard, announced the death of his father, Pierre
Plantard, to me." (361)

On May 5 of the year 2000, there occurred an event that was heralded by New Agers as the
dawning of the Age of Aquarius.

“The night of May 4, 2000, was the eve of one of the most exciting, powerful, and
transformative celestial events of our millennium according to astronomy and
astrology experts. It began with the darkest night in living memory... no moon or
planet lit up the sky as the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn
were hidden from human eyes behind the Sun. The next morning, May 5th, at 8:08
a.m. Universal Time, the longitudinal span of these five planets, Sun and Moon
collimated within a geocentric (Earth-centered) sector of 27 degrees of the
Constellation of Taurus in our Milky Way galaxy, forming a 'Grand Planetary
Alignment.'...Many cultures, including the Mayans and Hopi, have a prophecy
predicting the May 5th Grand Planetary Alignment and this time, 'the birth of the
New Age of Enlightenment' - The Age of Aquarius. On the Mayan calendar, May
 New Age of Enlightenment' - The Age of Aquarius. On the Mayan calendar, May
5th marked the end of the 5th Sun and the birth of the 6th Sun.”( 479)

MAY 5, 2000 was the close of present Age of Pisces, in New Age terms. Expected to be the
day of reckoning, decision and judgment, New Agers believe that May 5, when all of the
planets were in alignment, was a "cosmic moment" similar in appearance and significance to the
Star of Bethlehem which announced to the Magi the coming of the Messiah. At the turn of
every age (two millennia), there are "revolutionary transformations accompanying the change of
Ages...It is the twilight of the gods -- the Day of Judgment for the outgoing and incoming
Ages." [CalenderSign 2000] [article removed]

Since the planets represent gods in the occult traditions, New Agers believe that the gods will
return to earth. Mankind is being prepared for a massive visitation of extraterrestrials (aka,
demons) who have promised to assist them in transcending matter to a higher plane of existence
-- that of pure spirit.

The sign of this transition will be the astroarcheological Star of Bethlehem, which contains
three "mystic rectangles", a "Star of David", a "Seal of Solomon", a "Grand Sextile",
superimposed upon one another to form three sets of 6 (666) with a "Grand Cross" and two five
pointed star configurations. This delusional phenomenon is depicted on The Astroarchaeological
Star of Bethlehem website.

The importance of the six-pointed Star of David in occult symbolism and ritual cannot be
overstated. Dr. Cathy Burns' chapter on the Six-Pointed Star from Masonic and Occult Symbols
Illustrated, explains the occult significance of this symbol. The Six-Pointed Star: The Mark of
the Beast presents a reasonable case for its use by the Antichrist to brand his disciples in a
Luciferic initiation.

The six-pointed star has been identifed by the New Age as the Star of Bethlehem which
announces the Advent of Christ. "The Star is the symbol of the perfect life, the perfect balance,
of the Christ-man. The six-pointed star is the Star of Bethlehem, which again means the Star of
the Son of man." [GaiaMind ]

According to Wolfram von Eschenbach's poem, Parzival, the hero, "...Percival becomes the
king of the Grail when the planet Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury get together." ( 127:48)
Based on this planetary alignment and its occult significance, it is probable that Thomas
Plantard de Saint-Clair, the divine androgen, became the 'Grail King' around the turn of the
Millennium.

Percival was a knight in the legendary King Arthur's Dragon Court, the precursor of his famous
Round Table. In the poem, Parzival, the protagonist set out on a quest to find the Holy Grail
which, mystically, means the quest for immortality. After failure and perseverance, Percival at
last laid hold of the Holy Grail at the castle of Montsalvat ( mountain of salvation) where he ruled as
Grail King until succeeded by one of his twin sons. The legend of King Arthur has astrological
significance, the twelve knights of the 'round table' corresponding to the twelve signs of the
Zodiac's 'circle of animals'. The name Arthur, in fact, is derived from 'Artos', the Bear, and the
constellation of Ursa Major, the Great Bear, is known as Arthur's Chariot.

"The name Ursa Major, according to The New English Dictionary, 'appears to arise
out of the verbal association of the star name Arcturus with Arturus or Arthur, and the
legendary association with Arthur and Charlemagne...' In Welsh lore, the constellation
is seen as a symbol of the Celtic King Arthur; his name, it is claimed, is derived from
Arth-Uthyr, 'the wonderful bear'. So it was that the early Britons saw Arthur's Chariot
in the great constellation; 'Arthur's slow wain [wagon] his course doth roll in utter
darkness round the Pole...'. Furthermore it has been suggested that this constellation,
with its circular route, may have led to the notion of the round table (The Zodiac)...

brightest in the sky.
"Arcturus takes its name from its nearness to the sky Bears, Big and Little Bears,
Ursa Major, and Ursa Minor. From Arktouros or Arctophilax, 'the Bear Guard and
also called 'the Bear Watcher'. The 'Herdsman', or 'driver of oxen' are other titles.
"According to E W Bullinger (The Witness of the Stars), a biblical interpreter of the
constellations, the ancient Egyptians called Bootes Smat, which means one who rules,
subdues, and governs. They also called him Bau, which means also 'the coming one'. -

We mention these details of the Arthurian legend

because the Plantard family crest displays two
Rampant Bears which are esoteric symbols of the
Great Bear and Little Bear constellations, Ursa
Major and Ursa Minor. These constellations are
found in the astrological sign of Cancer and, in this
section, we have presented further compelling
evidence that Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair is the
Antichrist.

As a matter of fact, the word 'bear' means 'beast',

the term used for the Antichrist and False Prophet
in the book of Revelation. The reader will find, in
the False Gospel in the Stars series, that each
astrological sign has relevance to the characters
and events of Revelation. This explains the heavy
promotion of the Zodiac within the Christian
community. For there shall arise false Christs, and
false prophets, and shall shew great signs and
wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they
shall deceive the very elect. Mt. 24:24

THE MEROVINGIAN DYNASTY:

SATANIC BLOODLINE OF THE ANTICHRIST

NOTES:

AGE OF AQUARIUS

"A popular date for the beginning of the Age of Aquarius is the year 2000. If,
however, the Age of Pisces began with the ministry of Jesus (as many claim), and if
each age is 2150 years in duration, then we clearly have a long way to go before we
pass into the Age of Aquarius." - 940

HOMOSEXUAL RITES

"In the book entitled The Guilt of the Templars, we are told that 'the Knights Templar's
confessions show them to have been basically homosexual warrior order... Other
confessions show them to have been basically homosexual warrior order... Other
chargers were that the Knights templar participated in black magic and pederasty (anal
intercourse, usually with a boy). They practiced 'phallicism or sex-worship and
Satanism and venerated 'The Baphomet,' the idol of the Luciferians. The crime of
sodomy was a rite of Templar initiation." - 625:104

"...Baphomet [was] an androgynous (meaning both male and female figure. Satan, like
Baphomet, 'is often pictured as a hermaphrotidic deity, having a male phallus an the
breasts of a woman." - 625:104

"...in ancient Egypt, Set was worshipped with obscene, homosexual rituals. We are
told that the rituals performed for Set and Sirius were so horrible and debased 'that
later rulers of Egypt defaced their temples and obelisks and tried to drive them from
the land.' In mythology, we find that Set himself was involved in incest for he married
his sister, Nephthys." - 625:80
 THE MEROVINGIAN DYNASTY
SATANIC BLOODLINE OF THE ANTICHRIST & FALSE PROPHET

PART IV
THE BLOODLINE FROM HELL

"The stars must be aligned in a specific way in order for Set [Satan] to be properly invoked."
— Kenneth Grant, Grand Master, OTO

"The three constellations develop the

truth. What is now called Ursa Minor is
the Lesser Flock; Ursa Major gives us
The Sheepfold and the Sheep; while
Argo, The Ship, shows the travellers and
the pilgrims brought safely home—all
conflict over." (Bullinger) - 939

Ursa Major and Ursa Minor are the constellations of the Great Bear and Little Bear. They are
commonly known today as the Big and Little Dipper, although they extend beyond the Dipper
constellations. In spite of the fact that these constellations are represented in the Greek zodiac
by wild beasts, Bullinger, Kennedy and other proponents of the false 'gospel in the stars' theory
maintain that Ursa Major and Ursa Minor represent sheepfolds.

"The meaning [of Cancer] is made even clearer as we consider the three decans.
On a planisphere Ursa Minor is found near the center of the ecliptic and is called
today The Little Bear. However, this is not the ancient meaning of the
constellations Ursa Minor and Ursa Major. In fact, never did a bear have such a
tail as that! Actually, there is no bear in the planisphere or zodiacs of the
Chaldeans, Persians, Egyptians, or the Indians. Rather, what we have here is a
sheepfold, which is believed to be the original meaning of Ursa Minor.
"The figure of a sheepfold probably comes from the fact that one of the brightest
stars in Ursa Major is the star Dubheh, which means a 'Herd of Animals' and is
very similar to the word Dob or the Hebrew Dowb, which means 'The Bear.' This
could be the reason the sign changed over time. But it is really referring to a little
fold and a great fold. God's Church is the little flock--the gathering together of his
people...
"The second decan [in the sign of Cancer] is Ursa Major, probably the best
known of all of the constellations in the sky. We don't know it as the Great Bear,
as the Greeks called it, but we call it The Big Dipper... Like Ursa Minor, Ursa
Major is neither a dipper or a bear. Rather it is the greater sheepfold, as pictured in
the most ancient planispheres or zodiacs of the various nations...
"Other stars in Ursa Major are El Alcola, 'The Sheepfold'; Cab'd al Asad,
'Multitude of the Assembled'; El Kaprah, 'The Protected,' or in Hebrew 'The
Redeemed' or 'Ransomed.' A more familiar star, Callisto, again means 'The
Sheepfold.'..." - 872:109-114

The word Ursa comes from the Latin "ursus", which means bear. According to Webster's
Dictionary, the Anglo-Saxon word for bear (bera) is derived from the Latin word fera meaning
'wild beast'. This ferocious beast is of the genus Ursus:
 Bear \Bear\, n. [OE. bere, AS. bera; akin to D. beer, OHG. bero, pero, G. b["a]r,
Icel. & Sw. bj["o]rn, and possibly to L. fera wild beast, Gr. ? beast, Skr. bhalla
bear.]

1. (Zo["o]l.) Any species of the genus Ursus, and of the closely allied genera.
Bears are plantigrade Carnivora, but they live largely on fruit and insects. Note:
The European brown bear ({U. arctos}), the white polar bear ({U. maritimus}), the
grizzly bear ({U.horribilis}), the American black bear, and its variety the cinnamon
bear ({U. Americanus}), the Syrian bear ({Ursus Syriacus}), and the sloth bear,
are among the notable species...- 868

THE PLANTARD FAMILY CREST

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise
up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and
upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of
blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a
leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a BEAR, and his
mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his
power, and his seat, and great authority. - Rev. 13:1-2

"The Rampant Bear...emblem...depicts just this - the Bear constellation tied to the Pole of the
earth's axis, and dancing around it."
— Peter Dawkins, Arcadia

The Plantard family crest is regarded as the key to the Typhonian/Draconian Current, which is
the demonic lineage of the Merovingian bloodline. The Typhonian Current refers to the
Dragon lineage of Satan. Revelation 12:9 states: And the great dragon was cast out, that old
serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world. "Typhon is...Plutarch
asserts, the distinct 'Evil Principle' or the Satan of the Jews." (316) The key to the Draconian
lineage — the Plantard crest — has been elucidated by Kenneth Grant, the Grand Master of
the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO), the occult organization once headed by Aleister Crowley.
 the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO), the occult organization once headed by Aleister Crowley.
Note the Merovingian symbols, the bears and the bees, in the Plantard crest. Also, do not miss
Grant's assertion, amply supported by other sources, that the Prieuré de Sion has for some time
controlled the Vatican. In his book Outer Gateways Kenneth Grant wrote:

“In The Holy Blood and The Holy Grail, the authors reproduce the family
crest of Clan Plantard, the contemporary representative of which was, until
recently, the Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion, an Order which, according to
[Henry] Lincoln, dominated the Order of the Knights Templar and various other
highly influential institutions which, at certain periods of history, included the
Vatican. The crest which supplies the key to the [Typhonian/ Draconian] Current
represented by the Merovingian bloodline and the Order of Sion, comprises the
symbols of the Typhonian line of descent: the two bears, eleven bees, and the
fleur de lys. The motto incorporated in the crest reads 'et in Arcadia ego.'
Arcadia=127, which is the number of the Egyptian Goddess Heqt who was
typified by the 'lower part of the back, or haunch.'
“The two bears denote the Mother (Typhon) and her son (Set) [Satan]. The
image of the bee pictorializes the buzzing or humming vibration peculiar to the
Outer Ones, or their vehicles. Eleven is the number of Those who are Without, or
beyond, the Tree of Life, thus identifying the Outer Ones.' The Outer Ones are
also the Qliphoth or the Ancient Ones of Lovecraftian lore. That the Typhonian
Tradition and the Merovingian Tradition share the same important symbols seems
to be much more then a mere coincidence.” - 571

THE DRACONIAN CURRENT

The Typhonian or Draconian Tradition refers to the secret doctrine of the Ordo Draconis, the
Order of the Dragon which is associated with the Rosicrucians:

"In 1408...the Dragon Court was formally reconstituted as a sovereign body at a

time of wars and general political turmoil. The Court's reemergence was instigated
by Sigismund von Luxembourg, king of Hungary, a descendant of the Lusignan
Dragon Kings of Jerusalem. Having inherited the legacy in 1397 he drew up a pact
with twenty-three nobles who swore to observe 'true and pure fraternity' within the
Societas Draconis (later called Ordo Draconis) — Hungarian: Sarkany Rend. The
founding document...stated that members of the Court might wear the insignia of a
dragon incurved into a circle, with a red cross — the very emblem of the original
Rosicrucis which had identified the Grail succession from before 3000 B.C."
(348:225)

The Draconian Current refers to the demonic bloodline which is represented by the Dragon
Order. The Dragon Court was constituted in 1408 for the express purpose of preserving the
ancient Vere bloodline. Of this bloodline Godfroi de Bouillon was a member, according to
"From Transylvania to Tunbridge Wells" on the Dagobert's Revenge website:

"...The Holy Grail itself was Elven as was Jesus himself, complete with his
Crown of Fairy Thorns, depicted as the headgear of Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon
in the 12th century...
"The Dragon Court exists as an organization solely for the bloodline descendants
of the ancient Vere family -- the senior bloodline successors as a Scythian-
Merovin, Elven House of Princess Maelasanu -- and for those whose bloodlines are
extracted from this descent and its ancient Dragon Court." (342:5)

We have already documented in the previous section that Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair and his
son, Thomas, descended from Godfroi de Bouillon, the first Grand Master of the Prieuré de
Sion. In his book, Genesis of the Grail Kings, Laurence Gardner locates the Plantard bloodline
within this Draconian Current:
 within this Draconian Current:

"The Plantagenets were themselves a junior branch of the House of Anjou, whose
senior branch was the House of Vere [whose] ancestry was jointly Pictish and
Merovingian descending from the ancient Grail House of Scythia." (248:8)

In "Starfire: Gold of the Gods", Gardner elucidates the ancient pedigree of the Dragon
succession, which began with Cain, supposedly the offspring of Eve and Satan. Gardiner'
revision of the Genesis account traces the genealogy of Jesus back to Cain, who was therefore
an offspring of the Annunaki:

"One of the interesting items from the archives of the Dragon Court
was the origin of the word 'kingship'. It derives from the very earliest
of Sumerian culture wherein 'kingship' was identical with 'kinship' -
and 'kin' means 'blood relative'. In its original form, 'kinship' was
'Kainship'. And the first King of the Messianic Dragon succession was
the biblical 'C(Kain)', head of the Sumerian House of Kish.
"On recognizing this, one can immediately see the first anomaly in
the tradition of the Genesis story, for the historical line from David to
Jesus was not from Adam and Eve's son, Seth, at all. It was from Eve's
son Cain, whose recorded successors (although given little space in the
Old Testament) were the first great Kings (or Kains) of Mesopotamia
and Egypt...
"According to the Dragon tradition, the importance of Cain was that
he was directly produced by Enki [Satan] and Ava [Eve], so his blood
was three quarters Anunnaki. His half brothers Hevel and Satanael
(better known as Abel and Seth) were less than half Anunnaki, being
the offspring of Ateba and Ava (Adam and Eve)..." - 612 (Part I)

ET IN ARCADIA EGO

"Et in Arcadia Ego" inscribed on the arch between the two bears is an esoteric reference to
Arcadia, the Greek city where Danaus and his fifty daughters introduced the worship of the
mother goddess. Arcadia represents the Rosicrucian's envisioned Paradise on earth.

"Arcadia was one of the primary mystery names given to the state of the world in
a Golden Age, and the whole Arcadian imagery and allegory is that of a Utopia
or Paradise on earth that might be achieved. The world is on the threshold of that
achievement now, according to the way the evolutionary cycles of divine law
work. Jesus Christ and the Buddha prepared us for it in an outstanding way;
Francis Bacon...and the Rosicrucian Brotherhood have inaugurated it. All have
used Arcadian imagery, the meaning of which pierces deep, right to the heart of
all mysteries." - 889:15

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, a sacred river flows from Arcadia to the underworld.
This underground stream, Alpheus, represents a demonic bloodline to which the the Plantard
bloodline belongs.

"Arcadia...is frequently denoted by a fountain or a tombstone, both of which

are associated with an underground stream. This stream is usually equated with
the river Alpheus—the central river in the actual geographical Arcadia in Greece,
which flows underground and is said to surface again at the Fountain of Arethusa
in Sicily. From the remotest antiquity to Coleridge's 'Kubla Khan' the river
Alpheus has been deemed sacred. Its very name derives from the same root as the
Greek word alpha, meaning 'first' or 'source.'...
"...the underground stream...might connote an unacknowledged and thus
'subterranean' bloodline...
 'subterranean' bloodline...
"...the Plantard family--lineal descendants of Dagobert II and the Merovingian
dynasty. In 1548, the 'Prieuré documents' state, Jean des Plantard had married
Marie de Saint-Clair--thus forging another link between his family and that of the
Saint-Clair/Gisors...
"...the specific phrase in Poussin's painting—'Et in Arcadia Ego'...appeared in
an earlier painting by Poussin, in which the tomb is surmounted by a skull and
does not constitute an edifice of its own, but is embedded in the side of a cliff. In
the foreground of this painting a bearded water deity reposes in an attitude of
brooding moroseness—the river god Alpheus, lord of the underground stream..." -
31:139-140;177,180-2

As an aside, the occult uses rivers and other fresh water sources as sacred sites for their vampire
rituals. Apposite to their sin, God will turn fresh water sites into blood during the Tribulation
period: And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they
became blood... For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and you have given them
blood to drink; for they are worthy. - Rev. 16:4, 6

In William Taylor Coleridge's famous poem, Kubla Khan, the sacred river Alph descends to the
underworld. In a portion of this poem, reprinted below, the god of the underworld, Typhon, is
pictured as an erupting volcano, another sacred site of occultists. The imagery is phallic:

Kubla Khan

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan

A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea...

So twice five miles of fertile ground

With walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.

But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted

Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,
A mighty fountain momently was forced:
Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst
Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail,
Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher's flail:
And 'mid these dancing rocks at once and ever
It flung up momently the sacred river... - 781

In Greek Mythology, Typhon was the volcano demon which spewed fiery rocks at the sky:
"TYPHOEUS was a monstrous immortal giant who was defeated and imprisoned beneath
Mount Aitna by Zeus. This volcano-daimon hurled red-hot rocks at the sky and...boiled forth
great storms of fire... Aitna (Mt Etna), where the rock is alight and kettles of fire boil up the
hot flare of Typhaon’s bed." –Dionysiaca 13.319 - 867
FLEUR DE LYS

The fleur de lys in the Plantard crest is a also phallic symbol. According to Margaret Starbird's
esoteric book, The Woman with the Alabaster Jar: Mary Magdalene and the Holy Grail, the
fleur de lys is a masculine symbol of the covenant of circumcision. Typical of occultists, for
whom the Bible is a closed book, verses are wrested to their own destruction.

"The royal emblem of the Merovingian king Clovis was the fleur-de-lis (the iris)...a
masculine symbol. In fact, it is a graphic image of the covenant of circumcision...
This three-pronged 'lily' is an ancient symbol for Israel: the capitals of the two
phallic pillars of Solomon's Temple, Jachin and Boaz, were carved with 'lily work'
(I Kings 7:22)." (936:62)

As a symbol of the Merovingian bloodline, the fleur de lys specifically represents the French
branch of this genealogical tree. Holy Blood, Holy Grail contains an illustration which explains
the connection of the fleur de lys with French Merovingian royalty.

"'Legend of the Fleur-de-lys.' A fifteenth century illumination of the legend of the

divine origins of the fleur-de-lys, symbol of the French royal line. Clovis I is
shown receiving a banner from his queen, Clotilde." (31:Fig.35)

Holy Blood, Holy Grail misrepresents the fleur de lys as a Jewish symbol: "Jewish coin of the
time of Antiochus VII, 138-29 B.C. The lily, stylized here and perhaps a precursor of the
French fleur-de-lys, was a symbol of Judea." (31:Fig.33) More likely the fleur de lys was an
Egyptian symbol minted by Antiochus VII, the king of Syria who married Cleopatra Thea,
Princess of Egypt. Antiochus VII defeated the Maccabees and besieged Jerusalem.

The fleur de lys also represents the Tree of Life which also descends to the netherworld (hell).
Notice in Coleridge's poem that the volcano-daimon Typhoeus is ejaculating all over the sky. In
French, the surname 'Plantard' means 'sapling', indicating a young plant which has its roots in
the underworld but aspires to reach the sky.

It seems the fleur de lys is frequently found in ancient Egyptian artifacts. In this next excerpt
from Ancient Egyptians and the Constellations can be seen a connection between Osiris—who
is identified with the Kabalistic Tree of Life—and the Plantard bloodline.

"In ancient Egyptian texts...The Tree of Life grew out of the Sacred Mound, it's
branches reaching out and supporting the star and planet studded sky, while it's
roots reached down into the watery abyss of the Netherworld. The trunk of the Tree
of Life represented the World Pillar or Axis Munde (literally 'Axis of the Mound')
around which the heavens appeared to revolve. The World Pillar was the centre of
the universe.
"The Ancient Egyptian symbol for 'plant' meaning 'Tree of Life' was three sacred
lotus lilies. They have tree stems curving to the left as though blown into Life by
the breath of Hu, the Celestial Sphinx. On top of each stem is the Lotus flower
which was used in Ancient Egypt to represent Life and Resurrection. It is from this
hieroglyph that the 'fleur de lis' which is frequently found in Ancient Egyptian Art
traces its origin. The fleur de lis' represents the Tree of Life. The glyph which
denotes the sacred knowledge associated with Hu is also formed by the three stems
of the three sacred lotus lilies...
 "Osiris, in his earliest Axis Munde form of a tamarisk tree trunk, was called
Djed. His later mummy wrappings were symbolic of his having been encased inside
a tree trunk. His mummy was therefore an Axis Munde... When Osiris was enclosed
in the trunk of a tamarisk tree, which was later cut down and used as a pillar in the
palace of the King of Byblos, he metaphorically became as one with the Tree of
Life. Osiris became the Axis Munde around which the heavens appear to revolve;
he became the World Pillar, the link between the terrestrial and celestial worlds.
He held the heavens in his outstretched arms, and he soaked up the word of God
from the waters of the Netherworld. In Ancient Egypt the Netherworld was called
the 'Netterworld' meaning the 'World of the gods'. The gods had their home among
the stars." - 903:6

ELEVEN BEES

The Great Mother Goddess of the Merovingian bloodline was Diana, who was a lesbian.

"[Diana] devoted herself to hunting, always accompanied by a band of young

women, who, like herself, abjured marriage. She is depicted with a quiver and
attended by dogs. her most famous temple was at Ephesus, and was one of the
seven wonders of the world." - 625:237

Kenneth Grant includes among Diana's sacred animals the bear, the bee and the crab, which all
point to the sign of Cancer. The bee is also a symbol of Set or Satan. There are eleven bees on
the arch of the Plantard crest; eleven, of course, is an occult number.

""In the Typhonian Tradition the Bear is the constellation of Ursa Major. The stars
must be aligned in a specific way in order for Set [Satan] to be properly
invoked. To the Priory of Sion (the secret, occult organization dedicated to
preserving the Merovingian Bloodline), the Bear was an animal of the Goddess
Diana. According to Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, the authors of The Templar
Revelation, ' ...the Merovingian kings, from their founder Merovee to Clovis (who
converted to Christianity in 496) were 'pagan kings of the cult of Diana'.' Picknet
and Prince got this information from the Dossiers Secrets of the Priory of Sion. The
bees, which are a recurring symbol of the Merovingians are, in the Typhonian
Tradition, represented frequently as the humming or buzzing sound that occurs
before the appearance of the Great Old Ones or 'beings' proper to this tradition.
Grant writes 'The bee, beetle, or crab, is therefore the link between the earliest
manifestation of the Typhonion current and its final phases.' Also; '217 is the key
number of [Crowley's] Book of the Law. 217 is also the number of DBVRH,
meaning 'a bee' which is the specific symbol of Sekhet, whose name means 'a bee.'
Sekhet is another aspect of the god Set. There are eleven bees because eleven is the
number of Magick and of the sephirah on the Tree of Life, called Daath, which is
the 'Gateway' to the backside of the Tree and to the Gods... As for the fleur de lys,
in the Typhonian Tradition it represents the 'kingly man' that Crowley extols and
the inheritor of the Grail Bloodline. In The Vision and the Voice, Crowley is
'conversing' with his Holy Guardian Angel Aiwas, who says: 'For I am not
appointed to guard thee, but we are of the blood royal, the guardians of the
Treasure-house of Wisdom.' The 'blood royal,' the Sangraal of the Holy Grail." -
571

"Eleven. Symbolic of transition, excess and peril and of conflict and martyrdom.
According to Schneider, there is an infernal character about it: since it is in excess
of the number of perfection - ten..." 48:234

"There is a good reason for the emphasis on eleven and twenty-twos: these numbers
are both 'Master numbers' in the occult. They are particularly significant in
cabalistic studies." 242:203
 cabalistic studies." 242:203

There are also 13 tribes of Israel: 2 in the southern kingdom of Judah (Judah and Benjamin) and
11 in the northern kingdom of Israel (Ephraim and Manasseh plus 9 other tribes representing the
sons of Jacob). Possibly the 11 bees on the Plantard Crest represent the apostate northern
kingdom of Israel.

THE BEARS

“The two bears denote the Mother (Typhon) and her son (Set) [Satan].” (Kenneth
Grant) - 571

“...the daimon Typhon...was equated with the Egyptian god Set...” - 867

"The stars must be aligned in a specific way in order for Set to be properly
invoked." Kenneth Grant, Grand Master, OTO

In Greek mythology, Callisto, the daughter of Lycaon, which means wolf, and sister of the
lesbian Greek goddess Artemis, the huntress, known as Diana to the Romans. The name
Artemis appears to be a derivative of 'Art' which means 'Bear, stone, or God' and
Artemis/Diana was known the bear-goddess. Callisto, who belonged to the Artemis' band of
lesbians, was raped by the king of Greek gods, Zeus; their offspring was Arcas. Variations of
the myth are that either Zeus/Jupiter or his jealous wife Hera/Juno, hurled Callisto into the
heavens where she became the Great Bear (Ursa Major) and Arcas soon followed as the Little
Bear (Ursa Minor). The region of Greece known as Arcadia, where the Merovingians settled, is
named after Arcas.

"The Sicambrians, ancestors of the Franks, were known as the 'people of the
Bear' for their worship of the bear-goddess Arduina [Diana/Artemis]. The word
'Arcadia' comes from Arkas, patron god of that area of Greece, the son of the
nymph Callisto, sister of the huntress Artemis. Callisto's constellation is also known
to many as Ursa Major, the Great Bear.
"The name 'Arthur' comes from the Celtic arth, related to 'Ursus' -- namely,
'bear.' In legend, the Merovingians were said to be descended from the Trojans, and
Homer reports that Troy was founded by a colony of Arcadians.
"The 'Prieure documents' claim that the Arcadians were descended from
Benjamites driven out of Palestine by their fellow Israelites for idolatry. 'Arcadia'
was also known as the source of the River Alphaeus, the 'underground stream'
which figures so prominently in Coleridge's poetry and in esoteric literature." (491)

According to the Mysteries of Rennes-Le-Chateau, the overthrow and extermination of the

Merovingian Dynasty was never fully accomplished. It seems that the son of Dagobert II, the
last Merovingian king who was assassinated, left a son:

"The Merovingians were 'sacred kings' who reigned but did not rule, leaving the
secular governing function to chancellors known as the Mayors of the Palace. It
was one of these Mayors, Pepin the Fat, who founded the dynasty that came to
supplant them--the Carolingians.
"One of the great Merovingian kings, Clovis, struck a deal with the newly
nascent Roman church. He would subdue their enemies, the Arian Visigoths and
the pagan Lombards, in return for baptism into the faith and recognition of his right
to rule a new Roman empire as 'Novus Constantinus.'
"Yet one of his descendants, Dagobert II, was murdered by a lance pierced
through his eye (or poison poured in the ear -- accounts vary) at the orders of
Pepin. The church endorsed the assassination, flatly betrayed its pact with Clovis,
and in turn recognized the family of usurpers as legitimate, culminating with the
crowning of Charlemagne as Holy Roman Emperor. It was thought that the
 crowning of Charlemagne as Holy Roman Emperor. It was thought that the
Merovingian lineage was extinguished; in any case it was excised from the history
books.
"But there is some evidence that Dagobert's son, Siegebert IV, survived and that
a Merovingian principality continued to be ruled in Septimania by Guillem de
Gellone, a descendant--and ancestor--of Godfroi de Bouillon.
"If the Prieure documents are to be believed, the Merovingian lineage persists to
this day, largely due to efforts to preserve it through intermarriage.
"The significance of such alliances is the key." - 491

Dagobert II's son, Sigisbert IV, was known as the 'Plant-Ard' or Sapling, an allusion to his
demonically-rooted pedigree. Dagobert's marriage to "Magdala" at Rennes-le-Chateau in South
France, was said to unite the divine 'beast of the sea' [Satan] with the Holy Family -- Jesus,
Mary Magdalene and their 'divine' offspring. The Apocalyptic Secret of Rennes-le-Chateau
explains this marriage as the union of the two 'divine' bloodlines:

"...the marriage of Dagobert II and Giselle of Razes combined the two

bloodlines, that of the Holy Family and that of a pagan divine beast, the Quinotaur.
The connection between the Merovingians and the Holy Family seems to have been
hind-shadowed by this union of the bloodlines, when indeed they would seem from
contemporary sources to be a kind of Pendragon lineage, such as Vortigern and
Arthur in Britain. In Sigisbert IV, it appears the bloodlines of the divine king and
the world teacher combined.
"Given the events of his childhood, it is natural that Sigsbert, the new Count of
Rhedae, kept a low profile. The only solid evidence of his existence is a charter for
a monastery signed in 718 by 'Sigebert, Comte de Rhedae, and his wife Magdala'."
- 873 (Book 1, Chap. 9)

It will come as a surprise to many that the term 'Magdala' refers, not to Mary Magdalene, but to
the 'Magdalenian Era' which was the last of the Paleolithic Age and noted for its cave paintings,
particularly in North Spain and the Southwest of France. The bear god was worshipped in this
area of France which later became the Languedoc, the legendary abode of Mary Magdalene.

“Archeaologists have found carvings and cave paintings of Bears at Drachenloch

Caves, in Switzerland. Neanderthal man revered the Bear back as far as 70.000
years ago. In the Lascaux caves, in France, we find bear art back to 17,000 B.C. A
sixth-century altar dedicated to the bear god, Aedeche, is found in the French town
of St. Pé d'Ardet--the Vallée de l'Ourse -- not far from Lourdes. Many ancient
cultures wore Bear skins with the head still attached to try to become Bear. Joseph
Campbell claims that Bear Cults and Clans are older than shamanism.” (978)

'Magdala', in all probability was derived from the city 'Migdol' near Alexandria, Egypt, where
the Queen of Heaven was worshipped as Isis.

"There is no necessity to endeavor to crowbar [Mary Magdalene] into a Galilean

setting, for there are other intriguing alternatives for her place of origin: although
there was no ‘Magdala’ in Judea in her day, there was a Magdolum in Egypt - just
across the border - which was probably the Migdol mentioned in Ezekiel. There
was a large and flourishing Jewish community in Egypt at that time, which was
particularly centered on the great sea port of Alexandria, a seething cosmopolitan
melting pot of many races, nationalities and religions and perhaps where the Holy
Family had fled to escape the depredations of Herod’s men." - 843

God had a few words to say through the prophet Jeremiah to the disobedient Jews who
worshipped the Queen of Heaven at Migdol:

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land
 The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land
of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the
country of Pathros, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye
have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of
Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein,
Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in
that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not,
neither they, ye, nor your fathers...
Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other
gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that
dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying, As for the word
that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto
thee. But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth,
to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her,
as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of
Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were
well, and saw no evil. But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven,
and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been
consumed by the sword and by the famine. And when we burned incense to the
queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes
to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? - Jer. 44:1-
3,15-19

So Magdala, the wife of Sigisbert IV, was no offspring of Mary Magdalene; rather her name
derived from the Magdalenian Era when the bear god was the divinity of choice in South
France. No wonder the offspring of Sigisbert IV and Magdala were BEARS!

"...Dagobert II climbed on the throne but he was assassinated in 679 as well as

his son Sigebert IV according to the official history...
"The Merovingian dynasty continued formally with Thierry IV and Childéric III
who was removed in 751 and this was the end of the dynasty. According to the
parchment found by Saunière, and this could be true according to some historians,
Sigebert IV escaped and arrived in the Razes on the 17 of January 681 where he
took refuge with his grand father. Dagobert II had as a second wife Gisèle, the
daughter of Béra II the count of Razès. The Merovingian line included, after
Sigebert IV (676-758) also known as the 'Plant-Ard' - from whom Mr Plantard
took his name!-: Sigebert V (695-768), Bera III (715-771), Guillemon, Bera IV
(755-836), Bera V (794-860), Hildéric I and finally Sigebert VI known as 'Ursus'.
From this lineage came the Blanchefort family who gave three centuries later a
Templar Grand Master, Bertrand de Blanchefort... According to the parchment
found by Saunière the lineage did not stop with Sigebert VI but continued up to this
date although nobody claimed the French throne." - 856

According to Webster's Dictionary (1913), BERA is the Anglo-Saxon word for BEAR, which
possibly derives from the Latin word fera meaning 'wild beast', 'water beast' and 'sea bear'.

Bear \Bear\, n. [OE. bere, AS. bera; akin to D. beer, OHG. bero, pero, G. b["a]r,
Icel. & Sw. bj["o]rn, and possibly to L. fera wild beast, Gr. ? beast, Skr. bhalla
bear.]

1. (Zo["o]l.) Any species of the genus Ursus, and of the closely allied genera.
Bears are plantigrade Carnivora, but they live largely on fruit and insects. Note:
The European brown bear ({U. arctos}), the white polar bear ({U. maritimus}), the
grizzly bear ({U.horribilis}), the American black bear, and its variety the cinnamon
bear ({U. Americanus}), the Syrian bear ({Ursus Syriacus}), and the sloth bear,
are among the notable species.
2. (Zo["o]l.) An animal which has some resemblance to a bear in form or habits,
but no real affinity; as, the woolly bear; ant bear; water bear; sea bear.
 but no real affinity; as, the woolly bear; ant bear; water bear; sea bear.
3. (Astron.) One of two constellations in the northern hemisphere, called
respectively the {Great Bear} and the {Lesser Bear}, or {Ursa Major} and {Ursa
Minor}.
4. Metaphorically: A brutal, coarse, or morose person...- 868

The term, plantigrade, found in definition #1, describes the two rampant bears in the Plantard
family crest, and also the description of the first beast of Revelation13:

Plantigrade \Plan"ti*grade\, n. (Zo["o]l.)

A plantigrade animal, or one that walks or steps on the sole of the foot, as
man, and the bears.
Plantigrade \Plan"ti*grade\, a. [L. planta sole of the foot + gradi to walk:
cf. F. plantigrade.] (Zo["o]l.) - 868

And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a bear, - Rev. 13:2

Pertaining to definition #4, according to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Alpheus, the river god and
lord of the underground stream is a 'bearded water deity [who] reposes in an attitude of
brooding moroseness'. - 31:180-2

In the book of Genesis, the king of Sodom was named Bera, which means 'son of evil'. Bera
offered goods to Abraham which the latter wisely refused.

And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of
Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations; That these made
war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of
Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar...
And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king
of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar;) and
they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;...
And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and
Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain. And
they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went
their way. And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his
goods, and departed.
And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt
in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and
these were confederate with Abram. And when Abram heard that his brother was
taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred
and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan. And he divided himself against them, he
and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is
on the left hand of Damascus. And he brought back all the goods, and also brought
again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people...
And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the
goods to thyself. And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand
unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, That I will
not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that
is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich: - Genesis 14

Recalling that Ursa Major means Great Bear, it is noteworthy that the Prieuré de Sion was
founded by one Prince Ursus.

"The 'Prieuré documents' imply that...an abbey existed by 1100 and housed an
order of the...name [Ordre de Sion] which may have been formed earlier...
 "It is known that in 1070, twenty-nine years before the First Crusade, a specific
band of monks from Calabria in southern Italy arrived in the vicinity of the
Ardennes Forrest, part of Godfroi de Bouillon's domains. According to Gérard de
Sède this band of monks was led by an individual called Ursus--a name the
'Prieuré documents' consistently associate with the Merovingian bloodline... [A]t
Orval, not far from Stenay, where Dagobert II had been assassinated some five
hundred years earlier...an abbey was established to house the monks... By 1108 they
had mysteriously disappeared... Orval, by 1131, had become one of the fiefs owned
by Saint Bernard.
"Before their departure from Orval, however, the Calabrian monks may have
left a crucial mark on Western history. According to Gérard de Sède, at least, they
included the man subsequently known as Peter the Hermit. If this is so, it would be
extremely significant, for Peter the Hermit is often believed to have been Godfroi
de Bouillon's personal tutor... In 1095, along with Pope Urban II, Peter made
himself known throughout Christendom by charismatically preaching the need for a
crusade--a holy war that would reclaim Christ's sepulchre and the Holy Land from
the Muslim infidel. Today, Peter the Hermit is regarded as one of the chief
instigators of the 'Crusades.'
"...mysterious Abbey of Orval...[is] where our research suggested the Prieuré de
Sion may have had its inception." - 31:113,170

“According to the Prieure's own documents, its history is long and convoluted. Its
earliest roots are in some sort of Hermetic or Gnostic society led by a man named
Ormus. This individual is said to have reconciled paganism and Christianity. The
story of Sion only comes into focus in the Middle Ages. In 1070, a group of
monks from Calabria, Italy, led by one Prince Ursus, founded the Abbey of
Orval in France near Stenay, in the Ardennes. These monks are said to have
formed the basis for the Order de Sion, into which they were 'folded' in 1099 by
Godfroi de Bouillion.” - 922

The constellations of Great Bear and Leo the Lion governed Ancient Egypt under the Pharaonic
dynasties, which were also from this demonic bloodline. In the Great Mayan Cycle, which
spans all twelve signs of the Zodiac, this was known as the Age of Taurus.

"The sign of Taurus is taken as representing the initiating impulse that starts the
process of illumination. Taurus the Bull is the great Bestower of Light, who
fertilises the minds of mankind with seeds of light...
"It should be noticed...that the so-called 'Unification of the Two Lands' in
Ancient Egypt, which marked the start of the first cycle of pharoanic dynasties,
began with the commencement of the astronomical Age of Taurus, c. 3,240 BC...
The symbol of the bull was of particular importance for Egypt throughout its
history...
"...At the time that the pharaonic civilisation of Ancient Egypt was supposed to
have begun, c. 3.240 BC, the Spring Equinoctial sun arose in the middle of the
zodiacal sign of Taurus, and the May Day festival sun was on the cusp of the signs
of Cancer and Gemini...
"The first and main cycle of the Egyptian pharaonic civilisation...spanned...more
than just the Taurean Age. These astronomical ages were recognised by the
Egyptians, and their civilisation adapted accordingly, but the cycle of their
civilisation was not governed primarily by such ages. There was something even
more significant in the heavens which governed that particular cycle of the
Egyptian civilisation - the association of two great constellations that have
special significance to each other, one near the north pole and the other in the
zodiac. These two constellations, which determined the whole length and course of
the first cycle of Egyptian pharaonic civilisation, were Ursa Major, the Great Bear,
and Leo, the Lion. ...Leo is also a symbol of the heart, and Ursa Major was
considered by the Egyptians to be the magical 'thigh' (or right foreleg) of Taurus,
 considered by the Egyptians to be the magical 'thigh' (or right foreleg) of Taurus,
the latter symbolising the illumined mind and referred to as the 'Eye' of Horus.
With this 'thigh of the Eye of Horus' Ptah (the Creator god signifying the Voice of
God) 'opened' the mouths of divine entities and the souls of the dead." - 889:27

And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as
the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. - Rev. 13:2

Since New Agers are trying to replicate the ancient Egyptian culture which was based on the
pre-Flood civilization of Atlantis, it is ominous that Ursa Major in Cancer and Leo, the Lion are
the final signs of the Biblical zodiac promoted by Kennedy et al and represent the greater
sheepfold of the Christ who will come to destroy his enemies.

"The last four signs make the most sense if they stand for the final consummation of
all things. This section would then foretell the coming judgments on the earth and
the glorious outcome of Christ's reign.

“Taurus, the Bull, is an angry, rushing animal, which would be a meaningful

symbol of God delivering His wrath during the Tribulation. The Decans are Orion,
Eridanus, and Auriga. Orion is the warrior-prince with a sword on his side and his
foot on the hare or serpent. Eridanus, the torturous River, is the River of Judgment
belonging to Orion. Auriga, the Shepherd, is a picture of a powerful shepherd-king
who tenderly holds a she-goat and two little goats in his left arm. This could be a
picture of The Lord's comfort of the persecuted believers of this coming period of
judgment.
“Gemini, The Twins, are two human figures seated together in loving closeness.
This could portray the Marriage of the Lamb. (See Marriage Supper of the Lamb.)
The Decans are Lepus, Canis Major, and Canis Minor. Lepus is the mad hare, the
enemy under Orion's feet. Canis Major, Sirius, the Great Dog could prefigure the
Prince coming in His glory. Then Canis Minor, Procyon, The Second Dog, would
be his princely following.
“Cancer the Crab is the figure of a crab, in the act of taking and holding on
with its pincers. This could be a picture of the victorious King of Kings when He
returns, and the Decans, Ursa Minor, the Lesser Bear, Ursa Major the Greater
Bear, and Argo, could picture His privileged followers. Ursa Minor could also
mean the lesser sheepfold, and stand for the first-born who will be rulers, and Ursa
Major could be the greater sheepfold, the ones born later. Argo, the Ship, brings the
weary travelers home from their toils and travels.
“Leo, the Lion might easily picture Christ in His final victory over the Devil.
All three of the Decans point to the destruction of the enemy, pictured as a serpent.
Hydra, the fleeing Serpent, is about to be pounced upon by the lion. Crater, the
Bowl of Wrath, is placed on the serpent. And Corvus, the Raven, the bird of doom,
is also on the serpent, devouring his carcass." (Prophecy Central, Gospel in the
Stars promo) - 850

Peter Dawkins is a recognized authority on the Baconian-Rosicrucian philosophies and Ancient

Wisdom teachings. He is the author of the Francis Bacon Research Trust Journal Series, Studies
in Ancient Wisdom, whose purpose is "to give insight into the complete initiatory path that all
the great Religions or Wisdom Traditions have taught from time immemorial, as being the
Way, the Truth and the Life." (889:12) Volume 5 of Dawkins' series, Arcadia: The Ancient
Egyptian Mysteries, reveals to the 'initiated' the esoteric meaning of the 'Great Bear' and 'Little
Bear'. Dawkins promotes the same twaddle as Bullinger and Kennedy about the Bear really
being a Sheepfold; however, because he is writing to esotericists, Dawkins discloses its deeper
significance—that the Sheepfold is the "heavenly place of enlightenment" to which the initiates
of mankind (sheep) are led, presumably by the adepts and masters who are their "shepherds".
 "Associated in esoteric knowledge with this role of high kingship is the symbol of
the North Pole Star - the 'crown of the world - and the circumpolar constellations.
Of these, the Lesser and the Greater Bear are the most important: the former
providing the present North Pole Star. The 'Bear' is a veil to the real name,
which means 'Dove', or 'Sheepfold', or 'Chariot'. As the Chariot, it is Arthur's
vehicle of manifestation, as also the fiery chariot on which Elijah ascended to
heaven. Hence Arthur is known as 'the Bear'. As the Sheepfold, it is the heavenly
place of peace and enlightenment that Jesus spoke of, to which the 'sheep' (i.e.
initiates) of mankind are led, and from which the 'shepherds' (i.e. the adepts and
masters) come from. As the Dove, it is known as the vehicle of the Holy Spirit,
by means of which that Spirit descends to the earth and governs its kingdom. It is
signified by the royal crown of a High King (i.e. a crown with arches) - a halo of
light which descends upon a truly worthy and anointed (i.e. illuminated) soul,
bestowing full knowledge of Truth. The Great Bear is known as the mother of the
Little Bear, which is her son. The Rampant Bear and Ragged Staff
emblem...depicts just this - the Bear constellation tied to the Pole of the earth's axis,
and dancing around it." - 889:80

Dawkins has already informed the reader in Volume 4 of his series, The Great Vision: The Judaic-
Christian Mysteries, as to the identity of the shepherds who left the 'heavenly place of
enlightenment' to enable the human race to evolve: the Christ Brotherhood of Sirius.

"...Jesus of Nazareth, is historically one of those truly great souls that we call
Christs, Sons of God... It is said that his soul achieved perfection in worlds other than
our own, and that he is a Great Initiate of the star system called Sirius, the evolution
of which is far beyond our own. From the great Christ Brotherhood of Sirius, he came
with two others on a special mission to our solar system, entering it via the Sun, its
heart, and then incarnating into the coarse environment of our planetary sphere via the
finer environment of our twin planet, Venus. With these three Sirian Initiates came
their circles of disciples, 'picked up' en route; souls associated with both the Sun and
Venus, in which spheres they had achieved certain levels of initiation, but who needed
or chose to undertake such a mission as this one to the planet Earth as part of their
next step in initiation...
"The mission of the Christ Jesus to our planet is one of overseeing, inspiring,
guiding and teaching the younger souls of Earth's humanity throughout their whole
conscious human evolution on this planet, and helping to provide an evolutionary
stimulus at certain required times. By incarnating into the substance and evolutionary
chain of events of this planet, this great Teacher and his company of Sages are able to
experience and understand the peculiarities of our human and planetary evolution, its
pains and joys, and by participating in it to truly love and teach others by example and
by close ties of friendship. As well as being examples of the perfect life, they act as
yeast in the dough of humanity. Such a mission, in which spheres of beauty, harmony
and illuminated peace are deliberately left in order to live in and experience the
ugliness, inharmony and human injustice of our less evolved world, constitutes a
conscious, self-sacrifice in the Name of Love... The sacrifice of the Venusian souls
who came with Jesus is great, but not as great as the Sun-souls who accompanied
Jesus, and theirs is not nearly as great as that of the Sirian Souls...
"The Ancient Wisdom Traditions teach us that these mighty souls came to our
planet approximately 18 million years ago, living in aetheric bodies and inhabiting the
land subsequently known as Hyperborea ('the Land beyond the North Wind)...
Establishing this area as their principle home and temple, they then moved across the
world to other key areas in order to act as guides and teachers to the young races of
humanity. Young humanity was, at the time of this great incarnation of 'God-men' and
'Sun-men', existing and evolving in areas of the world known as Mu, the Motherland."
- 902:38-9
 The Great Bear and Little Bear, located in the sign of Cancer, immediately precede the last sign of
the so-called 'Biblical Zodiac', Leo, the Lion, which, we are told, presages Christ in His final
victory over the Devil. Nowhere in Scripture is the sheepfold of Jesus Christ compared to a bear;
moreover, as sheep, they are warned about the lion: "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary
the devil, a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." (I Pet. 5:8) Rather than
shepherds and sheepfolds of Jesus Christ, the bear and lion of the Zodiac appear to be the
Antichrist and his false religious system.

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a BEAR, and his mouth as the mouth of a LION: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it
were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the
beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able
to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things
and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. -
Rev. 13:1-5

Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of
the LORD is darkness, and not light. As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met
him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him. -
Amos 5:19-20

WILLIAM COOPER & THE THREE BEARS

MILTON WILLIAM COOPER

Lest our hypotheses appear to be wild speculations, the reader should consider some biographical
information on William Cooper.

William Cooper was an intelligence agent with the Office of Naval Intelligence in Bethesda,
MD. Following World War II, German scientists were in great demand by all of the U.S.
intelligence agencies, which actually competed for their fair share of Nazi war criminals! To
meet this demand, the dossiers of Nazi scientists, engineers, physicists, doctors, psychiatrists
and intelligence agents were sanitized in several operations, the most well-known and last
being Operation Paperclip; previously there were Operation Overcast, and Operation
Sunrise. Bethesda Naval Hospital would become the center for CIA mind-control drug
projects following WW II, according to "Project Paperclip and the Nuremberg Trials
Whitewash":

"Under the terms of [Project] Paperclip there was fierce competition not only between
the wartime allies but also between the various US services - always the most savage
form of combat. Curtis LeMay saw his new-minted US Air Force as certain to prompt
the navy's virtual extinction and thought this process would be speeded if he were able
to acquire as many German scientists and engineers as possible. For its part, the US
Navy was equally eager to snare its measure of war criminals. One of the first men
picked up by the navy was a Nazi scientist named Theordore Benzinger. Benzinger
was an expert on battlefield wounds, expertise he gained through explosive
experiments conducted on human subjects during the waning stages of World War II.
Benzinger ended up with a lucrative government contract working as a researcher at
Bethesda Naval Hospital in Maryland." - 949

William Cooper credits his selection for this Nazi-infested organization to his membership
as a young adult in the DeMolay Society, a branch of Freemasonry.

"The Knights Templar exist today as a higher degree of Freemasonry within the
Templar Order. In fact, the Knights Templar is a branch of the Order of the Quest.
The DeMolay Society is a branch of the Freemasons that consecrates the memory of
the persecution of the Knights Templar and in particular, their leader Jacques
deMolay. I know, because I was a member of the DeMolay Society as a young
adult. I loved the mystery and ritual. I became separated from the Society when my
family moved to a location out of reach of any lodge. I believe to this day that my
association with the DeMolay Society may have been the reason for my selection for
Naval Security and Intelligence." - 51:75
Naval Security and Intelligence." - 51:75

William Cooper's belief system, as stated in Behold a Pale Horse, included the Holy Grail
fiction and denial of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

"One of the greatest secrets of the ages is the true story of the Holy Grail, the robe
of Jesus, the remains of the Cross of Crucifixion, and whether Jesus actually died or
if he survived and produced a child..." - 51:75

In Behold a Pale Horse, William Cooper claimed that he actually knew the location in
France of the Holy Grail, which he strongly implied includes the bones of Jesus!

"The Prieure de Sion was a religious order founded upon Mount Sion in Jerusalem.
The Order set for itself the goal of preserving and recording the bloodline of Jesus and
the House of David. Through every means available to them, the Prieure de Sion had
found and retrieved the remaining relics... The treasure hidden in France is not the
treasure of the Temple of Jerusalem. It is the Holy Grail itself, the robe of Jesus, the
last remaining pieces of the Cross of Crucifixion, and, according to my sources,
someone's bones. I can tell you that the reality of the bones will shake the world
to its very foundations if I have been told the truth. The relics are hidden in
France. I know the location..." ( 51:76)

William Cooper founded a newspaper which he called VERITAS.

"William Cooper, Trustee, has founded for Harvest Trust, the CAJI News
Service, VERITAS national full size newspaper, The Intelligence Service,
Harvest Publications, and has helped over 700 low power FM affiliate
stations get equipped and on the air... including the station he manages as
Trustee for the Independence Foundation Trust, 101.1 FM Eagar, Arizona,
broadcasting to 7,000 people." ( 961)

According to Dagobert's Revenge, "It is significant, then, that in...1188, the Prieuré de
Sion...adopted the subtitle 'Order de la Rose-Croix Veritas'." ( 963) Pierre Plantard
used the word Veritas in reference to the Prieuré de Sion and the Rosicrucians:

"1962. Robert Charroux, Treasures Of The World, containing chapters devoted to the
Abbé Bérenger Saunière and to the Order of the Knights’ Templar – the latter chapter
referring to a painting of Saint Celestine in adoration before a luminous apparition at
the centre of which was inscribed the word 'Veritas' (Plantard was to equate the Priory
of Sion with the Rosicrucians and the word Veritas)." ( 962)

On Cooper's website, Hour of the Time, is displayed the alchemical symbol of the
Nuda Veritas or the 'Naked Truth'.
Note that "Truth is at its center." According to "Freemasonry and Religion" by David
Brownback, "One of the first things that a newly initiated brother learns is that
'Freemasonry is a system of morality veiled in allegory and illustrated with symbols.' He
also learns that Truth is at its center." ( 616)

Cooper's logo is, in fact, a famous painting by the visionary artist, Gustav Klimt of
Vienna, Austria. Produced in 1899, Klimt's Nuda Veritas [right], had a serpent at the feet
of the woman which is missing from Cooper's reproduction. Klimt belonged to "a secret
lodge, the Masonic Order of Visionaries." He was regarded as a true visionary artist, or
one who portrays through art his personal visions of the 'divine light' and out of body
experiences of 'union with the Mother Goddess' i.e. sexual intercourse with demons.

William Cooper's Nuda Veritas, meaning the Naked Truth, is literally the revelation of
gnosis in the form of a woman. This pernicious teaching was an ancient heresy that
found its way into the early church and was refuted by Irenaeus in his treatise, Against
Heresies:

"Marcus, a student of Valentinus' (c. 150), says that a vision 'descended upon him...in the
form of a woman... and expounded to him alone its own nature, and the origin of things,
which it had never revealed to anyone, divine or human.' The presence then said to him,
'I wish to show you Truth herself, for I have brought her down from above, so that you
may see her without a veil, and understand her beauty.'" (1057)

Elaine Pagels wrote in The Gnostic Gospels, "And that, Marcus adds, is how 'the naked
Truth' came to him in a woman's form, disclosing her secrets to him. Marcus expects, in
turn, that everyone whom he initiates into gnosis will also receive such experiences. In
the initiation ritual, after invoking the spirit, he commands the candidate to speak in
prophecy, to demonstrate that the person has received direct contact with the divine."
1057)

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who
privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon
themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of
truth shall be evil spoken of. - 2 Pet. 2:1-2

Gustav Klimt's Nuda Veritas turns out to be Sophia, the female half of Adam-Kadmon, the Divine
Androgyne. Understanding of the alchemical imagery of this painting is elucidated by an androgynous
statue in the cathedral of Nantes in France. We learned from a New Age source that the fusion of male
and female is the outcome of spiritual transformation:
 "...One alchemical symbol that is widely
acknowledged by modern scholars is that of an old
bearded man, the back of whose head shows a young
woman looking into a mirror. A statue with this
image graces the exterior of Nantes cathedral, as does
a bearded king with the body of a woman, in the
porch at Chartres that depicts the Queen of Sheba.
"The hermaphrodite is a pure alchemical symbol,
representing the perfect balance achieved in the Great
Work, and the perfect being, in which the alchemist
himself is transformed and transmuted spiritually -
and, as many believe, physically as well. It was a
'consummation devoutly to be wished' and had little,
if anything, to do with sexuality as we understand it
today. The Great Work was an explosion of the
potential into the actual, where the mystical quest
takes on concrete form. As the alchemists said, 'as
above, so below' - this process was believed to make
spirit into matter and transmute one sort of matter into
another. It made a man into a god." (1058)

The 'Great Work' is the union of the soul with the Divine by means of sexual
alchemy. This union, says the alchemist is not to be confused with sexuality as we
understand it today. Then what is it, pray tell? A rather eerie New Age website,
World Soul Media, carries an online book titled Heavenly Partners: The Mystical
Marriage Revealed, which gives explicit details of the author's "daring and
beautiful accounts of the mystical marriage ceremony and the resultant alchemical
fusion of the author with the Theosophical Masters, by which the author begins The
Great Work - the transformational process of becoming an Ascended Master while
still on the physical plane." (1056:Intro) Chapter 6 titled, "Sexual Alchemy: Tantra
Yoga" features a side view of the Divine Androgyne of Nantes while explaining its
significance as a Heavenly Partner fused with a human being:

"I believe fully that sexual alchemy is the key to...spiritual

union with the Heavenly Partners. Sexual alchemy is like the
spiritual equivalent of Tantra Yoga. It involves Swadhisthana
chakra, by which our minds become fused... The ancient,
oriental alchemists said the partners are 'inner plane beings,'
and that they are the result of an internal alchemical process
that manifests them. The process involves the psychic energy
centers of the physical body and begins with a blinding white
light and the taste of ambrosia... In the inner alchemical
laboratory of my subtle body, the circulation of energy begins
when the Swadhisthana chakra is stimulated, releasing ching
or sexual energy. Ching combines with chi, at the heart
region. Finally, Ching and chi meet with shen in the head.
When this happens, the 'ambrosia flows like saliva in the
mouth' and the 'gold and silver lights' are seen. The psychic
inner lights of the Heavenly Partners, now manifest, can
always be seen. Alice Bailey called it 'externalization of the
hierarchy.'...
hierarchy.'...
"The Statue of Prudence at the tomb of Francois II in
Nantes Cathedral shows the Divine Androgyny, which I
interpret to be the Heavenly Partner and the human being.
The statue shows an old man residing at the back of the
head of a young woman." (1056:6)

Today there are New Age books which instruct readers on how to have sexual
intercourse with spirits. The following promotional for Sexual Alchemy: Magical
Intercourse with Demons by Donald Tyson makes Jesus' words in Matt. 24:37 a
present reality:

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of
man be. - Matt. 24:37

And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the
earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw
the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives
of all which they chose. - Gen. 6:1

"Chances are that you've heard of Tantra and Taoist sexual practices. Now, as a
result of studying the inner mysteries of alchemy, Donald Tyson presents a
Western system of sacred sexuality in Sexual Alchemy. Here you will learn how to
have erotic relationships with loving spirits. That means the methods presented
here can function as a Western alternative to Eastern sexual practices. They also
can be used by a solitary person and need not depend upon the participation of a
partner.
"The first part of this book presents a history of sex with spirits. It also goes
into the secrets of Eastern internal alchemy and how the books of Western alchemy
often made secretive references to sexual magick. You will also learn how to create
a physical representation of the spirit you are going to use as a partner.
"The second part of the book includes the practices and techniques which the
author found to be effective from other sources or developed himself. This includes
techniques of diet, exercise, breathwork, banishings, purifications, and finally, an
invocation ritual to summon the spirit who is going to be your lover!
"Then you will learn the previously hidden secrets of having sex with a spirit
lover. You''ll learn how to prepare and recognize the signs that this is an actual
occurrence and not simply a fantasy. And then, when you have accomplished your
ritualized mating, you will learn how to collect and use the resulting, highly
charged fluids for magical purposes.
"Everything we are, everything we have, is a gift from the Divine. Doesn't it
make sense that we use all of our abilities to honor the source from which they
came? That means we can even make use of our sensual natures to honor the
Gods. If you want to follow a system based on Western traditions, this book can be
your guide." (1056)

The Underground Streams website speaks of an extraterrestrial Current that would

one day mate with human beings:

"[Aleister] Crowley was aware of the possibility of opening the spatial gateways
and of admitting an extraterrestrial Current in the human life-wave... In the new
aeon, a race will be propagated of magically generated beings able to probe
 aeon, a race will be propagated of magically generated beings able to probe
extraterrestrial dimensions. And the next stage in the advancement of evolution on
the planet 'will be achieved by a willed congress [sexual intercourse] with
extraterrestrial entities of which, in a sense, Aiwaz (Aleister Crowley's Guardian
Angel) is the immediate messenger to humanity.'" (379)

A "willed congress" with extraterrestrials is called a sacred marriage or

alchemical wedding, which unites a human being with Lucifer under the guise of
returning the soul to its former androgynous state: "According to Gnostic
teachings "the soul is a female (the Greek word for soul, psyche, is feminine).
Originally she is a virgin, androgynous in form, living in the presence of the
heavenly Father. When she falls into a body, however, she is defiled; after
abandoning her Father's house and her virginity, she falls into sexuality and
prostitution, and is abused by the wanton adulterers of this carnal world. Desolate
and repentant, she prays to her Father for restoration, and he hears her prayer. She
is returned to her former condition, and restored to androgynous union with her
brother. This union is achieved through spiritual marriage; the bridegroom comes
down to the bridal chamber, and the soul and her bridegroom 'become a single
life', inseparable from each other. Thus the ascent of the soul to the Father is
accomplished, and the soul is again at home in heaven." William C. Robinson,
Jr., in The Nag Hammadi Library (1057)

WILLIAM COOPER & THE 3 BEARS

The previous sections presented compelling evidence that the father of William Cooper is none
other than the late Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair, former Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion.
Since the intelligence agencies specialize in the creation of false identities for their spies, and
Cooper served for many years as an agent of the U.S. Office of Naval Intelligence, it is entirely
plausible that that the biographical material presented in William Cooper in his book, Behold a
Pale Horse, is a bogus profile. There are, however, in Cooper's book many subtle clues which
would communicate the author's true identity to the “initiated”— those who are well-versed in
the symbolic language of the occult and are looking for the man who will lead mankind in its
final stand against Jesus Christ.

The Foreword to William Cooper's book, Behold a Pale Horse, cleverly conveys vital
information pertaining to the astrological profile of the Antichrist and False Prophet—that of the
of the bear god. Rosicrucian symbolism represents Jehovah as a bear. According to Peter
Dawkins esoteric book, Arcadia: The Ancient Egyptian Mysteries, “Ursa Major and Ursa Minor
are the celestial signs, or symbols, of I.O.A.” [The latter abbreviation is Jehovah sans vowels.]
The word bear, as shown in the Plantard Family Crest, is an Anglo-Saxon derivative from the
Latin word fera meaning wild beast, water beast and sea bear. Also, “a plantigrade animal [is]
one that walks or steps on the sole of the foot, as man, and the bears.” (Webster's Dictionary,
1913)

In the Holy Bible, God has also given His people clues as to the identity of the Beast that will
rise up as the Antichrist.

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a BEAST rise up out of the sea,
having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his
heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard,
and his feet were as the feet of a BEAR, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and
the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. - Revelation 13:1
 the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. - Revelation 13:1

We turn now to William Cooper's book, Behold a Pale Horse, for some amazing clues as to
Cooper's identity. The following are photos and excerpts found in the Foreword:

“My paternal grandfather's family...were on the front line during the Oklahoma land
rush and succeeded in staking out 320 acres on BIG BEAR CREEK near what
would eventually become Enid.” (p.8)

“Connie...has grown to be so much a part of me that even now I sometimes get a

feeling to look behind me to see if that little girl is still there. I feel a great loss
when I see that it's only SUGARBEAR, my faithful dog; but then, I love him too,
so I can't complain.” (p.13)

“Annie and POOH (Dorothy's nickname) are the lights in my life. Annie and I
were married on July 4, 1989. Pooh was born on May 30, 1990... POOH is my
always and forever friend.” (p. 31)

COOPER GIVING POOH A "BEAR HUG"

MAMA BEAR & PAPA BEAR
MAMA BEAR

According to William Cooper, his mother's name was “Dovie” and her family came to the
United States from Scotland, a major Merovingian stronghold:

“My mother's family came from Scotland and settled in North Carolina.... I never
knew much about my mother's family... My mother was one of those chosen to live
in a children's home...
“My mother is a real Southern lady. They used to call her kind a Southern belle.
She is one of the last of a dying breed. DOVIE Nell (Woodside) Cooper is the type
of woman that men like to dream about when they're lonely. She is the kindest,
gentlest, woman that I have ever known.” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse,
p.8,11)
The name “Dovie” has great esoteric significance. The messiah of the Rosicrucians is not Jesus
Christ but St. John, whose name is considered synonymous with Jehovah. According to Peter
Dawkins, the shortened form of Jehovah (I.O.A.) also means “Dove”! Furthermore, the Hebrew
word for Dove (Dôveh) “is directly associated with Dohver, a 'sheepfold', and with Dôhv, a
'bear'” and “I.O.A. is represented by all these symbols—eagle, dove, sheepfold, bear.”! On top
of all these coincidences, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor are the celestial signs of I.O.A. or
Jehovah (aka Dove):

“[Rosicrucian] emblems depict Jehovah as an eagle with protective wings

outstretched: cryptically alluding to St. John (whose symbol is an eagle), whose
name is derived from the same sacred vowels—I.O.A.—as JIHOVAH.
“I.O.A., as in Iona, also means 'DOVE' - the Holy Ghost that brings divine Light
into the world of material manifestation. Furthermore, as the symbol of the Dove is
derived from the Hebraic word Dôveh, meaning rest, strength, security,
plenteousness, peace' (which is the description of I.O.A.), and as this word is
directly associated with Dohver, a 'sheepfold', and with Dôhv, a 'bear', I.O.A. is
represented by all these symbols—eagle, dove, sheepfold, bear. Ursa Major and
Ursa Minor are the celestial signs, or symbols, of I.O.A.; thus the eagle in the
emblems, or Jehovah in the motto, can be translated as the Great or Little Bear,
referring again to Arcadia and the Arcadians, to the Ancient British race...” (Peter
Dawkins, Arcadia: The Ancient Egyptian Mysteries, 889:122 )

“My ancestors came from England, Scotland and Ireland.” (William Cooper,
Behold a Pale Horse, p.7)

Peter Dawkins of the Francis Bacon Research Trust, leads "Bull and Europa Pilgrimages: A
coordinated series of geomantic pilgrimages within the landscape of Europe." Dawkins'
interpretation of Europa and the Bull (Zeus/Jupiter) transposes the traditional interpretation so
that Europa stands for Great Britain and the Bull is Europe. From this premise, Dawkins
extrapolates that the Bull (Europe) represents the Grail King and Europa (Britain) represents the
Grail Queen:

"Europe takes its name from the myth of Europa and the Bull. Whereas the
islands of Britain, Ireland and Scotland together constitute the landscape of Europa,
the mainland of Europe forms the landscape of the Bull.
"The Bull is the symbolic incarnatory form or vehicle of Jupiter, the divine
Father of Light, equivalent to the Grail King. Europa, the Dove, is the symbolic
incarnatory form of Maia, the Grail Queen and Mother of Mercury, the golden
child of light." (988)

“Dovie” was known for her gentleness and fierce loyalty to her family, which like the bear, she
would defend to the death:

“My mother...could be so tough and yet so kind, gentle, and loving all at the same
time. Woe to anyone who ever harms my dad or one of her children in her
presence.” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse, p.11)

“Moon-goddesses often have association with Bears. Bear is like the Primal
Mother, and will defend her cubs against all forces to the death.” (978)

In ancient paganism, God was female—the Great Mother Goddess. She was also called the
Dove Goddess and Lady of Transformation, according to “The Johannite Legend of the
Dove Goddess and Lady of Transformation, according to “The Johannite Legend of the
Templars”...

“In Ice Age art the Great Goddess or Great Mother is responsible not only for
life and death but also for regeneration. It is no coincidence that the esoteric number
for woman is four; just as in the Christian Trinity, the idea of the Great Goddess in
three of her aspects—Maiden, Mother and Crone—cuts across history. Her fourth
and less well known aspect, the Dove Goddess, makes her the Lady of
Transformation...
“Worship of the divinity continued from the Paleolithic era...
“The Great Mother exemplified natural generative forces of the belly or womb of
the earth, the cave of subterranean darkness. As the Great Goddess, she is not per
se a mother or a fertility deity; she has a far wider concept—that of Cosmic
Creatrix. For Stone Age people, God was female... Caves, crevasses, and caverns
are natural manifestations of the primordial womb of the Universal Mother, and the
art of the deep recesses of the earth seems to be dedicated to her in much the same
way that cathedrals such as Chartres are consecrated to the Virgin Mary.” (141:2-
3,306)

That the Great Mother Goddess was also called the Dove Goddess and Lady of Transformation
is revealing. The New Age has long been referred to in the occult the Age of the Holy Spirit or
simply the Age of the Spirit. During the Age of the Spirit, the institutional Church will give
way to a more spiritual form of worship, focusing less on doctrine and more on experiences
ascribed to the Holy Spirit. This explains the present overemphasis on the Holy Spirit in
portions of Pentecostalism, with their attendant signs and lying wonders. And in some
Charismatic and Pentecostal circles, the 'Spirit' that is being invoked has usurped the exalted
position that rightfully belongs exclusively to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Another heresy that is being introduced through the Messianic/ Hebrew Roots Movement claims
that the Holy Spirit is female. This false doctrine is a direct attempt to substitute the occult
trinity of “father, mother and son” for the Biblical Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
According to Thomas Friend, the author of Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and
Led Zeppelin, on the inner cover of the Led Zeppelin IV album, which introduced Stairway to
Heaven, there is found a statement of this group's belief in the occult trinity. Notice that the
mother in the Qabalistic trinity is called the Dove:

"Horus the Hawk, the son in the Qabalistic trinity. This is on the Led Zeppelin
IV inner album cover mountain. Note the small crown on top of the head. The eye
is below it to the right, and the beak is to the right of the eye. Coming down the
neck toward the shoulder of the right wing, the extension of the right wing is folded
under the shoulder. The father and mother in the Qabalistic trinity are on the top of
the mountain, the Hermit and the Dove...
"...the mountain top, Hermit is the Devil himself." (Copyright - Atlantic Records)
(982:198,386)

Thomas Friend, once a Led Zeppelin devotee but now a born-again Christian, later refutes the pagan
concept of a female Holy Spirit.

“The logical conclusion then, is that these occultists are in error when applying a
feminine singular to the Hebrew Godhead. They also say that the 'Mother' in their
Qabalistic trinity is the Holy Spirit in the Bible. They use the Holy Spirit as
presented in scripture to represent the other (this is the dove that the Hermit is
 presented in scripture to represent the other (this is the dove that the Hermit is
standing on at the top of the mountain on the inner cover of Led Zeppelin's fourth
album). Conversely, this is what the Lord Jesus Christ had to say about the Holy
Spirit to his disciples, just before he was crucified: 'I have yet many things to say
unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is
come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but
whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to
come.'” (John 16:12-13) The Lord Jesus Christ presents him as masculine.
(982:214)

In his expose of Led Zeppelin, Friend wrote about the direct appeals of this rock band to recruit
bond slaves for Satan. One song, stated Friend, “...Dazed and Confused contains a two-part
command from Robert Plant to the listener to sell his or her soul to the Devil.” Robert Plant,
presumably of the Plantard bloodline, wrote the lyrics to "Stairway to Heaven"—a blend of
Celtic/Druid rock music and mythology—which is considered the most popular rock song of all
time. Plant's lyrics are loaded with Celtic, Druidic and Black Sabbath symbolism, Arthurian
lore, specific allusions to Tolkein's Lord of the Rings, and detailed instructions on how to make
a pact with the Devil. More than one analysis of Led Zeppelin's music has speculated that
Stairway to Heaven is really the Stairway to Tolkein's Middle Earth.

PAPA BEAR

“I was born May 6, 1943. I was reared in a military family. My father is USAF Lt.
Col. (Ret.) Milton V. Cooper. He prefers to be called Jack, the nickname given to
him by the family when he was a boy...” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse,
p.8)

American readers will know that “Jack” is a nickname for “John”—not Milton! But few
readers know that “John” (Fr. Jean) is the adopted name of all Grand Masters of the Prieuré de
Sion. According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail,

"After 1188 [the Prieuré de] Sion is said to have chosen a grand master of its own,
the first of them being Jean de Gisors. According to the 'Prieuré documents' every
grand master, on assuming his position, had adopted the name Jean (John)—or,
since there were four women, Jeanne (Joan). Sion's grand masters are therefore
alleged to have comprised a continuous succession of Jeans and Jeannes, from
1188 to the present. This succession was clearly intended to imply an esoteric and
Hermetic papacy based on John, in contrast (and perhaps opposition) to the exoteric
one based on Peter.
"One major question, of course, was which John. John the Baptist? John the
Evangelist—the 'Beloved Disciple' in the Fourth Gospel? Or John the Divine,
author of the Book of Revelation? It clearly seemed to be one of these three
because Jean de Gisors in 1188 had purportedly taken the title of Jean II. Who,
then, was Jean I?" (31:159)

The following is Cooper's description of his father:

“Now I love my Dad. He is my friend. He is an independent, gregarious, feisty,

tough, confident, adventurous, sometimes overbearing, handsome, BIG BEAR of a
man.” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse, p.10)
 At this point it is not unreasonable to hypothesize that Cooper's description of his father as a
“big bear of a man” may be a cryptic allusion to Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair being the Great
Bear.

BABY BEAR

Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with
his sons? - Job 38:32

Bible commentaries seem to agree that this verse is a reference to the constellation of the Great
Bear. “In the King James Bible (Job 9:9; 38:32) it is translation of the Hebrew word 'Ayish
(ash),' which probably means the constellation the Great Bear.” (977)

This Hebrew word ash/Ayish in Job 38:32 actually means bier, which is a coffin or the stand
upon which a coffin is placed.

“The Hebrew word ash or Ayish in the Book of Job, ix, 9, and xxxviii, 32, supposed
to refer to the square in this constellation as a bier, not a bear, was translated
Arcturus by St. Jerome in the Vulgate...” (978:169)

Is this another aspect of Arthur's Wain which rotates slowly around the North Pole as a
continuous funeral procession?

“The Bier and Great Coffin were other titles [of the Great Bear]. In other traditions
the Seven Stars are a bier followed by mourners, as in the Arabic Banat Na'ash al
Kubra,'the Daughters of the Great Bier', the Mourners; they saw the constellation as
a funeral procession, attributing this title to the slow and solemn motion of the
figure around the pole, with the stars of the Dipper as the coffin and the handle as
mourners. Arabian Christians identified them as 'the Bier of Lazarus' and it was
thought that the tradition possibly arose from the slow and solemn motion of the
 thought that the tradition possibly arose from the slow and solemn motion of the
figure around the pole. The Skidi Pawnees saw it as a stretcher with a sick man on
it.”

In the tail of Great Bear Constellation are found three stars—Alioth, Alcor-Mizar and Alkaid.
According to Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible, these stars are the sons of the Great Bear.

“[In] the well-known constellation of the Great Bear...or Ayish...the 'sons' of Ayish
are spoken of in Job 38:32, and are regarded as the three stars in the tail of the
bear...” (James Hastings, A Dictionary of the Bible, “Astronomy and Astrology”) -
974:191

THE GREAT BEAR CONSTELLATION (URSA MAJOR)

Of these stars, Alcor and Mizar are a double star or twins.

“MIZAR (Zeta Ursae Majoris). One of the most famed stars of the sky, second
magnitude (2.27) Mizar, 78 light years away, is the Zeta star of Ursa Major, the
Greater Bear, the second star in from the end of the handle of the Big Dipper, and
the Dipper's fourth brightest star. In large part its fame comes from the coupling of
the star with a nearby visual companion, fourth magnitude Alcor, only 12 minutes
of arc (a fifth of a degree) to the northeast. The two, Mizar and Alcor, termed the
'horse and rider' by the Arabians, are a good test of minimal vision. The star's
Arabic name derives from a word meaning 'the groin' of the celestial Bear that
plods silently around the north celestial pole (the name mistakenly drawn from
Merak, in the Dipper's bowl).” - 975

Employing the Hermetic axiom "as above, so below" based on the knowledge that Pierre
Plantard de Saint-Clair was the earthly representation of the Great Bear at this pivotal point in
the occult calendar, who would be the sons of Arcturus?
 Alioth - William Cooper
Mizar - Ron (twin brother of Connie)
Alkaid - Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair (son of Ronnie and Connie)

“ALKAID (Eta Ursae Majoris). Though the name may not be so well known, the
star certainly is, as Alkaid is the end star in the handle of the Big Dipper, the great
asterism that makes most of the grand constellation Ursa Major, the Greater Bear...
Alkaid's Arabic name means 'the leader'...” - 975

See: Antichrist in Virgo

In the Plantard family crest there are two bears, signifying Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, the
constellations of the Great Bear and Little Bear. From ancient times, these constellations were
used to navigate the high seas. Because they rotated around the North Pole like hands around a
clock, they served as clocks to nocturnal travelers. Edgar Allen Poe called them 'star dials' in his
arcane poem, Ulalume:

“Both of these [bears] have been—and perhaps still are—night clocks to the
English rustic, and measures of time generally, as in Poe's Ulalume, 'star-dials that
pointed to morn.'...
“Its well-known use by the early Greeks in navigation was paralleled in the
deserts of Arabia 'through which' according to Diodorus the Sicilian, 'travelers
direct their course by the bears, in the same manner as is done at sea.'” - 927:430

Excerpt from Ulalume

Our talk had been serious and sober,

But our thoughts they were palsied and sere—
Our memories were treacherous and sere—
For we knew not the month was October,
And we marked not the night of the year—
(Ah, night of all nights in the year!)
We noted not the dim lake of Auber—
(Though once we had journeyed down here)—
We remembered not the dank tarn of Auber,
Nor the ghoul-haunted woodland of Weir.

And now, as the night was senescent

And star-dials pointed to morn—
As the star-dials hinted of morn— (981)

THE GREAT BEAR

The Hermetic axiom "as above, so below" is the supreme

principle governing the belief system and practices of the
occult. Since man is a microcosm of the macrocosmos,
whatever occurs in the heavens is regarded as the blueprint
of the gods for man's activity on earth. Occultists strive to
conform their pagan rituals, leading personages, sacred
sites, occult objects and calendar of events to the heavenly
blueprint as interpreted by their adepts and masters. These
deluded souls believe that scrupulous attention to the
deluded souls believe that scrupulous attention to the
Hermetic axiom, "as above, so below," will bring about the
global transformation which Lucifer has promised them.
The Temple of the Dark Moon, an Australian organization
dedicated to "providing information on Paganism (in
particular Wicca and Wytchcraft), as well as the practices of
magick and other occultic arts", explains the occult concept
"as above, so below":

“This phrase comes from the beginning of 'The Emerald Tablet' and embraces
the entire system of traditional and modern magick which was inscribed upon the
tablet in cryptic wording by Hermes Trismegistus... The significance of this phrase
is that it is believed to hold the key to all mysteries. All systems of magick are
claimed to function by this formula. 'That which is above is the same as that which
is below - macrocosmos is the same as microcosmos. The Universe is the same as
God, God is the same as man, man is the same as the cell, the cell is the same as
the atom, the atom is the same as … and so on, ad infinitum.'
“This message theorises that man is the counterpart of God on Earth; as God is
man's counterpart in heaven. Therefore, it is a statement of an ancient belief that
man's actions on Earth parallel the actions of God in heaven. This pivots on the
belief that 'all things have their birth from this one thing by adaptation'...
“The purpose of all rituals in ceremonial magick is to unite the microcosm with
the macrocosm to join God, or Gods when invoked, with the human consciousness.
When such a supreme union is achieved the subject and object becomes one. This
is because the magickian feels that he is consciously in touch with all elements of
the Universe, therefore, he or she can control them. It may be said, the magickian
feels connected with the Universe. This feeling intensifies the more the magickian
successfully practices his or her skills. Whenever he experiences a failure, he or she
knows that the ritual was not performed correctly.” (976)

Astrology is the Hermetic science of religiously modeling phenomena on the earth below to a
pattern that exists in the heavens above. This accounts for the mythology of ancient pagan
belief systems which depict an epic narrative of the ancient gods of Atlantis—the antediluvian
civilization which God judged in Genesis 7—whose home was believed by pagan cultures to be
in the stars. The pictures found today in the zodiac were not invented by the Greeks, but were
in place perhaps as early as 4000 B.C. predating even the civilizations of Sumeria. False
teachers such as D. James Kennedy, E.W. Bullinger and Joseph Seiss have suggested that there
is a Biblical message in the stars, viz., that the zodiac is a pictorial story of God's plan of
salvation on earth. Yet Kennedy et al reveal their true colors when they identify the key to
understanding the celestial zodiac, which they claim presents the message of salvation, is found
in ancient depictions of the Great Sphinx of Egypt. For Scripture states concerning Egypt:

But he shall not...cause the people to return to Egypt...forasmuch as the LORD hath
said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way. Deut. 17:16

Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in
chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but
they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! Isaiah 31:1

The most important of the stellar constellations is Ursa Major, the Great Bear. From time
immemorial it seems that star worshippers have revered the bear as a god, probably applying
the Hermetic axiom in their religious life. King Arthur of the Celtic legend—who in real life
the Hermetic axiom in their religious life. King Arthur of the Celtic legend—who in real life
was Clovis I, the first Frankish monarch—was the earthly representation of the Great Bear
constellation. Since Arthur means bear, this legend appears to have derived from the ancient
worship of the bear:

“The Celts had two goddesses that took the form of the Bear: Andarta ('powerful
bear') and Artio. In other cultures there are the bear god Artaois, Ardeche, or Arthe.
Their names are both from 'Art' which means 'Bear, stone, or God.' There are also
many place names called Artos or Arth. Images of the god Artio have been found
in Berne (Bear City), Switzerland, which has its 'den of bears' which was used by
the Bear cultists. King Arthur (a form of Artios or Artiaus, a great god of antiquity)
is associated with Bear in that his name comes from the constellation of the Great
Bear, which was also known as 'Arthur's Wain/Arthur's Plow.' Midwinter is the
time of Alban Arthuan/The Light of Arthur and the Winter's Soltice. The Winter's
Soltice is the longest night of the year, and people called upon the constellation of
the Great Bear to light their way in the darkness. Soltices and Equinoxs were
performed at Stonehenge. The Bear is also thought to be ruled by the planet Mars.
Ancient traditions help us discover our ancestral roots.” 979

Cecil Rhodes derived his concept of the Round Table from the Celtic legend of King Arthur and
his Knights of the Round Table. In particular, Rhodes was inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson's
poem Morte d'Arthur which is a poetic account of King Arthur's death, a portion of which is
reprinted below.

I perish by this people which I made, -

Tho' Merlin sware that I should come again
To rule once more - but let what will be, be,
I am so deeply smitten thro' the helm
That without help I cannot last till morn...

Then loudly cried the bold Sir Bedivere,

"Ah! my Lord Arthur, whither shall I go?
Where shall I hide my forehead and my eyes?
For now I see the true old times are dead,
When every morning brought a noble chance,
And every chance brought out a noble knight.
Such times have been not since the light that led
The holy Elders with the gift of myrrh.
But now the whole Round Table is dissolved
Which was an image of the mighty world..."

And slowly answer'd Arthur from the barge:

"The old order changeth, yielding place to new,
And God fulfils Himself in many ways...

But now farewell. I am going a long way . . .

Where I will heal me of my grievous wound."

According to legend, Arthur was borne to the heavens on a celestial barge, alternately called
Arthur's Chariot and Arthur's Wain (Wagon). King Arthur is the 'once and future king': “Tho'
Merlin sware that I should come again, To rule once more...”
 "In his great 15th century epic Morte D'Arthur, Thomas Malory tells a different
legend of Arthur's epitaph. Arthur's life in Morte D'Arthur ends at Glastonbury; his
burial is witnessed by Sir Bedevere and a hermit 'that sometime was bishop of
Canterbury'. 'Yet some men say in many parts of England that King Arthur is not
dead, but had by the will of Our Lord Jesu into another place; and men say that he
shall come again, and he shall win the Holy Cross. Yet I will not say that it shall be
so; but rather I would say, here in this world he changed his life. But many men
say that there is written upon the tomb this: HIC IACET ARTHURUS, REX
QUONDAM REXQUE FUTURUS - 'Here lies Arthur, the once and future king'." -
831

More recently, in 1958, a book titled Once and Future King was written by T.H. White to
revive Arthurian lore in anticipation that the ancient king would one day return. Arthur's barque
sailed to the location of the Great Bear constellation, whence he shall return in the person of the
Antichrist.

“'King Arthur, the renowned hero of the Mabinogion, typified the Great Bear; as
his name—Arth, bear, and Uthyr, wonderful—implies in the Welsh language; and
the constellation, visibly describing a circle in the North Polar regions of the sky,
may possibly have been the true origin of the Son of Pendragon's famous Round
Table, the earliest institution of a military order of knighthood.' Whatever may be
the fact in this speculation, we know that the early English placed King Arthur's
home here and that the people of Great Britain long called it Arthur's Chariot or
Wain...” (William Henry Smyth, Speculum Hartwellianum) - 927:425

Arthur's son, Modred, was the Guardian of the Grail, the offspring of Arthur's 'sacred marriage'
rite with his half-sister, Morgaine. Arthur, whose name means bear, is believed to be sleeping
as the bears who hibernate during winter.

“The legend of Arthur sleeping in an underground cave, waiting for his day of
awakening, is like the life of a Bear that hibernates in the winter in a sort of
suspended animation, as its bodily temperature falls to conserve calories.” 979

It is recently reported that a super-volcano is expected to erupt in Yellowstone National Park, a

location which is known for its population of bears. Ironically, in one news report the super-
volcano is likened to a hibernating bear.

“...the Yellowstone Super-Volcano was 20,000 years past due. Let us review that
story:

“NEWS BRIEF: 'Super Volcanoes: Satellites Eye Deadly Hot Spots', Space.com,
07 August 2001
“... no one can say if or when it might become dangerously active. If a volcano is
like a hibernating bear, however, then it may well be volcanic springtime in
Yellowstone. Super explosions, about 1,000 times more material erupted than Mt.
St. Helens in 1980, happen about every 600,000 years at Yellowstone,' Wicks says.
'And it's been about 620,000 years since the last super explosive eruption there.”
(Space.com)

We have documented in our report, Heeding Bible Prophecy, that the U.S. military is capable of
awakening volcanoes with electromagnetic weaponry. Volcanoes are believed to be portals to
the lost continents of Lemuria and Atlantis. Coleridge portrayed the god Typhon as a volcano
 the lost continents of Lemuria and Atlantis. Coleridge portrayed the god Typhon as a volcano
erupting from Hell. It is possible that the planned awaking of the super-volcano in Yellowstone
National Park will be one of many environmental events announcing the coming of Arthur, the
Once and Future King, returning to the earth in the person of the Antichrist. As above, so below.

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and

he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before
him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to
worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Rev. 13:11-12

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's

clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matt.
7:15

In the false 'Gospel in the Stars', the 'first sign, Virgo, represents the protevangelium, that 'the
seed of the woman would destroy the seed of the serpent. The final four signs--Taurus, Gemini,
Cancer and Leo--all represent the consummation of all things, when the Promised Seed will
actually come to destroy the seed of the serpent. Certain stars in these astrological signs are
claimed to portray the Promised Seed shepherding his flock of sheep until the final
consummation of all things. The following synopsis of the 'Gospel in the Stars' fallacy is found
on the Prophecy Central website. Note the extensive imagery of the Shepherd leading and
protecting his Sheepfold:

"The first four signs [of the Zodiac] would prefigure the person, work and triumph
of the illustrious Redeemer.

“Virgo, the Virgin, is the first sign. She has an ear of wheat in one hand and a
branch in the other. The wheat is actually seed, and symbolizes the 'seed of the
woman.' The branch is a familiar Old Testament name for the Messiah. The same
woman is seen in the first Decan of this sign, Coma, holding a baby, the Branch, or
the Desire of Nations. The next Decan in this group is Centaurus, a half-horse, half-
man. This could represent the child who is born, having two natures: being both
God and man. The last Constellation in this Sign is Bootes, or Arcturus, who is the
Great Shepherd and Harvester. Together these images seem to portray, as in the
Bible, the virgin birth of a child who has two natures, and the role of that child
when he is grown as The Great Shepherd, leading His flock...

"The last four signs make the most sense if they stand for the final consummation of
all things. This section would then foretell the coming judgments on the earth and
the glorious outcome of Christ's reign.
 “Taurus, the Bull, is an angry, rushing animal, which would be a meaningful
symbol of God delivering His wrath during the Tribulation. The Decans are Orion,
Eridanus, and Auriga. Orion is the warrior-prince with a sword on his side and his
foot on the hare or serpent. Eridanus, the torturous River, is the River of Judgment
belonging to Orion. Auriga, the Shepherd, is a picture of a powerful shepherd-king
who tenderly holds a she-goat and two little goats in his left arm. This could be a
picture of The Lord's comfort of the persecuted believers of this coming period of
judgment.
“Gemini, The Twins, are two human figures seated together in loving closeness.
This could portray the Marriage of the Lamb. The Decans are Lepus, Canis Major,
and Canis Minor. Lepus is the mad hare, the enemy under Orion's feet. Canis
Major, Sirius, the Great Dog could prefigure the Prince coming in His glory. Then
Canis Minor, Procyon, The Second Dog, would be his princely following.
“Cancer the Crab is the figure of a crab, in the act of taking and holding on with
its pincers. This could be a picture of the victorious King of Kings when He
returns, and the Decans, Ursa Minor, the Lesser Bear, Ursa Major the Greater Bear,
and Argo, could picture His privileged followers. Ursa Minor could also mean the
lesser sheepfold, and stand for the first-born who will be rulers, and Ursa Major
could be the greater sheepfold, the ones born later. Argo, the Ship, brings the weary
travelers home from their toils and travels.
“Leo, the Lion might easily picture Christ in His final victory over the Devil.
All three of the Decans point to the destruction of the enemy, pictured as a serpent.
Hydra, the fleeing Serpent, is about to be pounced upon by the lion. Crater, the
Bowl of Wrath, is placed on the serpent. And Corvus, the Raven, the bird of doom,
is also on the serpent, devouring his carcass." (850)

Prophecy Central, D. James Kennedy, E.W. Bullinger et al would have Christians believe that
the Great Bear and Little Bear constellations are representative of God's sheepfolds. A
distinction is even made between two classes of sheep: a little fold of 'first-born who will be
rulers' and a greater fold which follows them. In the course of our research, we happened upon
the website of the Mystery of Rennes-le-Château, the French village where Merovingians claim
to have discovered evidence disproving the Biblical origins of Christianity. An article on this
website titled “Francis Bacon & The Arcadian Academy” provided a revelation of the esoteric
meaning of Ursa Major and Ursa Minor:

“According to Peter Dawkins, in his book on the English Arcadian Academy;

“Arcadia was presided over by shepherds, and Pan was the great God of
Arcadia…arcadia comes from the word Arcas – the son of Zeus & Callisto. Callisto
is the Great Bear & Arcas is the Little Bear in astronomical terms, and in Greek
Mythology. These stars circumnavigate the North Pole Star – which esoterically is
the symbol of high Kingship... the Bear is a ‘veil’ to a real name, which means
shepherd. It is where the sheep (ie initiates) and shepherds (adepts & Masters)
come from...” (573)

The final sentence is the key that unlocks the meaning of this sign: “...the Bear is a ‘veil’ to a
real name, which means shepherd. It is where the sheep (ie initiates) and shepherds (adepts &
Masters) come from...”

Initiates? Adepts & Masters? This discovery seemed so significant that we purchased the $50
book cited by Hamblett—Arcadia: The Ancient Egyptian Mysteries by Peter Dawkins—hoping
to learn more. We were not disappointed. Dawkins' explanation of the esoteric meaning of the
Great and Little Bear constellations was worth the price of the book:
Great and Little Bear constellations was worth the price of the book:

“Associated in esoteric knowledge with this role of high kingship is the symbol of
the North Pole Star - the 'crown of the world - and the circumpolar constellations.
Of these, the Lesser and the Greater Bear are the most important: the former
providing the present North Pole Star. The 'Bear' is a veil to the real name, which
means 'Dove', or 'Sheepfold', or 'Chariot'. As the Chariot, it is Arthur's vehicle of
manifestation, as also the fiery chariot on which Elijah ascended to heaven. Hence
Arthur is known as 'the Bear'. As the Sheepfold, it is the heavenly place of peace
and enlightenment that Jesus spoke of, to which the 'sheep' (i.e. initiates) of
mankind are led, and from which the 'shepherds' (i.e. the adepts and masters) come
from. As the Dove, it is known as the vehicle of the Holy Spirit, by means of which
that Spirit descends to the earth and governs its kingdom. It is signified by the royal
crown of a High King (i.e. a crown with arches) - a halo of light which descends
upon a truly worthy and anointed (i.e. illuminated) soul, bestowing full knowledge
of Truth. The Great Bear is known as the mother of the Little Bear, which is her
son. The Rampant Bear and Ragged Staff emblem...depicts just this - the Bear
constellation tied to the Pole of the earth's axis, and dancing around it.” (889:80)

There you have it, the real meaning of Sheepfold in astrology: “As the Sheepfold, it is the
heavenly place of peace and enlightenment that Jesus spoke of, to which the 'sheep' (i.e.
initiates) of mankind are led, and from which the 'shepherds' (i.e. the adepts and masters) come
from.” Although Dawkins credits Jesus Christ with this pagan concept, it is foreign to Jesus'
teaching. Nowhere in chapter 10 of John's gospel, or anywhere else in Scripture, does Jesus
refer to His sheep as 'initiates', 'adepts' or 'masters'. As a matter of fact, He is recorded in
Matthew 23 as saying, "Neither be ye called masters; for one is your Master, even Christ." As
for the trustworthiness of adepts and masters who are lead the initiates entrusted to them, let us
not forget the words of Albert Pike, who stated in Morals & Dogma that Masonic initiates are
intentionally misled by the adepts and masters:

“Part of the symbols [of Freemasonry] are displayed there to the initiate, but he is
intentionally misled by false interpretations. It is not intended that he shall
understand them, but it is intended that he shall imagine that he shall understand
them. Their true explication is reserved for the Adepts, the princes of Masonry.”
(155:819)

False prophets and teachers know that sheep are very much herd animals. By way of warning
about bad companions, this writer's father used to tell the story of the 'Judas goat'. Before they
slaughter the sheep, meat packers train an old goat to lead the sheep out of the pen and down a
chute into the slaughter house. At the last moment, the Judas goat is allowed to escape by a
side-gate while the sheep go to the slaughter. False prophets are like Judas goats who are
strategically placed to lead God's sheep to the slaughter, for Jesus said that the final end of
deceived sheep is destruction. He also warned that deceivers would present themselves as
Christians, affecting a disposition ever so meek and mild (like sheep), however, in reality such
deceivers are a species more dangerous than goats; they are wolves!

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth
to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate,
and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they
are ravening wolves. - Matt. 7:13-15
 The notorious German Thule Society, which Hitler joined in 1919, was founded by the
followers of Jorg Lanz Von Liebenfels and Guido von List. Lanz was "formerly a Cistercian
monk whom the Roman Church excommunicated because of his homosexual activities." (1029)
List was "a close associate of Lanz who formed an elitist priesthood called the Armanen Order,
to which Hitler may have belonged." In a penetrating analysis of the occult origin of Nazi
Aryanism, authors of The Pink Swastika, Kevin Abrams and Scott Lively, implicate the Thule
Society of empowering 'initiates' with supernatural powers for eugenics purposes:

“The Nazi dream of an Aryan super-race was adopted from an occult group called
the Thule Society, founded in 1917 by followers of Lanz and List. The occult
doctrine of the Thule Society held that the survivors of an ancient and highly
developed lost civilization (Atlantis) could endow Thule initiates with esoteric
powers and wisdom. The initiates would use these powers to create a new race of
Aryan supermen who would eliminate all 'inferior' races." (1029)

The former Cistercian monk, Jorg Lanz Von Liebenfels was considered the 'father' of National
Socialism by Austrian psychologist Wilhem Daim, the author of a 1958 study of Lanz, The Man
Who Gave Hitler His Ideas. A compelling expose of the Merovingian infiltration of the
Catholic Church reveals that the Cistercians were Rosicrucians:

“Like most Merovingian monasteries Glastonbury became a Benedictine

Monastery. And the purpose of Merovingian monasteries was 'infiltration' based on
the belief that the best way to crush the Church was from 'within.'... There is no
doubt in my mind that [the Grail legend] would have been the work of the
Cistercians, founded by Benedictine monks as 'the ratchet' for the structural
organization of [the Prieuré de] Sion. Joseph of Arimathea is alone associated with
the Grail legend and the Quest of the Grail legends, which per Colliers
Encyclopedia, are dominated by the mystical symbolism of Cistercians...
“More than any heretical Merovingian organizations, the Cistercians personified
the banality of evil at its finest. The name Cistercian and of their first monastery,
Citeaux derive from Cistus, of the Cistaceae or Rockrose family resembling the
wild rose and cultivated in the Mediterranean. The Myrrh with which Mary
Magdalene anointed the Body of Jesus also comes from the Cistus family. And
they had chosen the Magdalene...assigning her the symbol of the Rose and Cross in
memory of the Brotherhood of the Sun founded by Akhenaten who had taken as its
symbol the Rose and Cross (Lewis). Cistercians were Rosicrucians. And this
Rosicrucian order of monks would triumph in its infiltration of the Church.” (550)

The Secret Doctrine, authored by H.P. Blavatsky in 1893, became the sourcebook for twentieth
century esoteric societies, including the Thule Society. The inner core of the Thule Society were
Satanists such as Dietrich Eckart to whom Hitler dedicated his book, Mein Kampf. Hitler
assiduously applied himself to the The Secret Doctrine, whose underlying premise was the
Aryan root race theory, a gnostic belief that the present race of Homo Sapiens is destined to be
replaced by the seventh root race of "godmen" or Homo Noeticus, the New Man. There is
evidence that the German scientists were aided by contact with 'Gray entities' from inside the
Earth for the building of their war machine and genetic research.

ST. JOHN: HEAD OF KNIGHTS & INITIATES

The Templar Revelation by Clive Prince and Lynn Picknett confirms other reports of the Nazi
sympathies of Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair, whose possible connection with Hitler's 'Angel of
Death', Josef Mengele, was explored in a previous section, The False Christ. A website critical
 Death', Josef Mengele, was explored in a previous section, The False Christ. A website critical
of Plantard's "mystic monarchist games" also exposed the fascist proclivities of the former
Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion:

“Born in 1920, he first came to public notice in the Occupied France of 1942 as the
editor of a journal called Vaincre pour une Jeune cehvalerie (Conquest for a Young
Knighthood)—which was markedly uncritical of the Nazi oppressors, and which was
actually published with their approval. This was officially the organ of the Order
Alpha Galates, a quasi-Masonic and chivalric society, based in Paris, of which
Plantard became the Grand Master at the age of just twenty-two...Vaincre is now
[1998] the title of the Priory's internal bulletin, which Pierre de Saint-Clair edits with
his son Thomas.” (242:43)

Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was strongly influenced by one Paul Le Cour, a French mystic who
wrote 'L'Ere du Verseau' (The Age of Aquarius). The 'Rennes-le-Château Papers of Paul Smith'
charts the development of the Prieuré de Sion and cites the work of M. Le Cour to expose the
fascist nature of the New World Order envisioned by the late Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion.
Translator Peter O’Reilly interprets Le Cour's vision of the Age of Aquarius as a civilization which
revives the mystery religion of ancient Atlantis: "In [L'Ere du Verseau] Le Cour looks forward to
the future Age of Aquarius as bringing with it the return of Christ in the role of Christ the King. It
is a work of esoteric and apocalyptic Christianity in which the author also voices his belief in an
esoteric spiritual tradition that originated in Atlantis…" (994)

Note that the periodical which Pierre Plantard edited with his son Thomas, Vaincre pour une Jeune
cehvalerie, means 'Conquest for a Young Knighthood.' In Le Cour's The Age of Aquarius, the
following passages are from a chapter entitled ‘The Formation of a New Order of Knighthood.’ In
1949, Le Cour disclosed that his organization, Atlantis, had been making preparations for the
formation of 'special establishments' for the training of future leaders. By this he meant a monastic
"community of initiates under the direction of a man with a sense of mission."

"For more than twenty years we have been calling in 'Atlantis' for the formation of a
new order of Knighthood and indicating the means by which it might be achieved...
Jules Romain, in 'Le Probleme Numero Un', published in 1947, wishes, in the face of
the current enormous danger, for a spiritual power consisting of a grand order of
chivalry and it seems to him that for it to be realised the support of the Catholic church
would be of great help. Another French author, Raymond Abellio, has published,
likewise in 1947, a curious work entitled 'Vers un prophetisme nouveau', in which he,
too, calls for the formation of a grand order consisting of a community of initiates
under the direction of a man with a sense of mission." (994)

Le Cour insisted that the Roman Catholic Church must radically change its Christology if she
would be the patron of the new knighthood. Implied here is the gnostic belief that St. John the
Divine (a composite John the Baptist and John the Evangelist) was the Messiah rather than Jesus
Christ.

"The order would comprise novices, disciples and masters. He does not indicate the
means of realising it, but thinks that it could be through the Catholic Church, on
condition that it lifts the veil off the New Testament and 'questions St John....'
"Let me also point out that P.Riquet in a conference in 1947 at Notre Dame de
Paris, has also spoken for the need for the creation of an order of knighthood. And
Jean-Louis Lagor has published a work with the title 'Une Chevalerie Renaitra' (An
Order of Knighthood Will Be Reborn)." (994)
 Order of Knighthood Will Be Reborn)." (994)

The target group for initiation into the new knighthood was the youth culture, which had been
victimized by the baleful influence of secular humanism. Le Cour saw France as the locus of
planning and activity by the new leadership with priories, i.e. monasteries, as the training centers.
These warrior-monks will be directed by the false 'Christ' when he returns.

"Young people have been abandoned for far too long without moral or spiritual
direction. Teaching has been developed at the expense of 'education'. Everything
therefore needs to be created from the beginning to bring about the formation of
leaders and educators, subject to a discipline simultaneously heroic and sanctifying, in
special establishments: Priories (Prieures). We possess in France buildings that are
permeated with a spiritual dynamism that favours its realisation, such as Mont St
Michel with its wonderful cloisters for meditation, its majestic chapel for prayer and
its magnificent hall of knights. All are unused.
"Our country has a mission to fulfil. It has been shaken hard to wake it from its
torpor, its lethargy; and now ideas are shooting up on all sides, for France is a seedbed
of ideas. Let us try to understand what our mission consists of, let us try to fulfil it by
preparing knights of the Apocalypse whose head will be Christ when he returns!"
(994)

At the right moment, said Le Cour, a new Grail King would rise to the occasion of directing the
communities of youthful initiates. The esoteric Church of St. John would replace the traditional
Church of St. Peter, which had ruthlessly persecuted the Knights Templar and related Gnostic
sects.

"The cycle of the romances of the Round Table tells us the story of the holy vessel,
the Grail, which there is good reason to connect with that Ganymede (i.e. Aquarius).
Considered as containing all light and all knowledge, it is the object of a quest, a
search to which the knights dedicate themselves. Their head is King Arthur, head of
the legendary order of knighthood of the Grail, who is to return one day at the head of
his knights to put the world back in order, and at that time all symbols will be
explained. But such an order of knighthood will have to be placed under the patronage
of St John, who is the head of knights and of initiates." (994)

The preceding passage presents an altogether different type of world order than is portrayed by the
usual New World Order propaganda. Virtually all exposure of the global conspiracy creates the
image of a secular, socialist world government under the management of the United Nations. Yet,
according to the late Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion, which directs all other secret societies,
the new world order will be not only of a religious character but a dynamic network of monastic
communities under a priest-king. This would be a perfect fulfillment of a prophecy made in the
twelfth century by the famous mystic monk, Joachim of Fiore.

"...the third age would be one of love, joy, and freedom, when the knowledge of God
would be revealed directly in the hearts of all men. The Age of the Spirit was to be the
Sabbath or resting-time of mankind. Then the world would be one vast monastery, in
which all men would be contemplative monks rapt in mystical ecstasy and united in
singing the praises of God. And this new version of the kingdom of the Saints would
endure until the last judgment." (243:108-9)

Joachim of Fiore (1135-1202 AD) was born in Calabria, Italy and became a Calabrian monk, an
order which merged with the Merovingian Celtic Church in 1128 A.D. "Joachim of Fiore, a
 order which merged with the Merovingian Celtic Church in 1128 A.D. "Joachim of Fiore, a
Cistercian Abbot from Southern Italy, allegedly received visions on Mount Tabor which inspired
him to write the 'Eternal Gospels' based on his own interpretation of Revelation 14:6. He
proclaimed that there were three ages of the world corresponding to the three persons of the Holy
Trinity. In the first age, the Father ruled the world through power and fear (Old Testament). The
Son ruled through wisdom and discipline in the second age (New Testament). The third age was
nearing (he prophesied around 1260) when the Holy Spirit would rule with universal love without
the need for institutions. In this third age, the Church would be freed from everything carnal and
worldly, and a new religious Order would be founded whose task it would be to propagate these
ideas and thereby save the whole world." (1009)

Joachim's prophecy may not be as far-fetched as it seems. In their book, The Trojan Horse: How
the New Age Infiltrates the Church, Brenda Scott and Samantha Smith reveal that the Temple of
Understanding, a 'Spiritual United Nations' launched by Eleanor Roosevelt, is networking monastic
communities worldwide in order to form the very leadership envisioned by Joachim of Fiore, Paul
Le Cour and Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair for the new global spirituality:

"In June of 1980, the...Temple of Understanding...sponsor(ed) the formation of a

World Monastic Council... - to be an international network of monks, nuns, scholars,
theologians and laity from...both East and West, who would work together to
create...the global society of the future to work for the awakening of spiritual
consciousness (godhood)." (24:83)

KALLISTOS WARE

Timothy Ware (1934-) was an Anglican theologian who converted to Greek Orthodoxy in
1958. In 1966, at age 32, he was ordained priest and became a monk, receiving the new name
'Kallistos'. He made his monastic vows at St. John the Theologian monastery on the Greek
island of Patmos and is now a bishop of the Eastern Orthodox Church and considered the
"foremost authority on Orthodoxy". Also in 1966, he returned to Oxford as Spalding Lecturer in
Eastern Orthodox Studies at the University. Bishop Kallistos Ware is today a major figure in
the interfaith / ecumenical movement. He has written books and conducted numerous seminars
on the Eastern Orthodox Church and Christian mysticism. The following profile appears on the
website of Ohio State University, where Bishop Ware lectured in April of 2002:

"Consecrated Bishop of Diokleia in 1982, Bishop Kallistos is well known for his
popular books about Eastern Orthodox faith and practice and has been hailed as
'perhaps the 20th century's foremost authority on Orthodoxy' by the Russian
Orthodox press. Bishop Kallistos serves in the diocese of Thyatira of the
Patriarchate of Constantinople.
"Bishop Kallistos Ware is a resident of Oxford, England. A British native, he left
the Anglican Church and converted to Greek Orthodoxy in 1958. Timothy Ware's
first contact with Orthodoxy was as a 17- year-old who 'by chance or divine
providence' attended an Orthodox vigil service already in progress and immediately
felt a sense of 'belonging' although he could not understand the language. He was
ordained to the priesthood at age 32 and took monastic vows at St. John the
Theologian monastery on the Greek island of Patmos.
"Before retiring last year, His Grace was the Spalding Lecturer in Eastern
Orthodox Studies at the University of Oxford, where he had completed his own
studies in Greek and Latin. His Grace also was a fellow of Pembroke College at
Oxford. Active in work for Christian unity, His Grace was a member of the
Anglican Orthodox Joint Doctrinal Discussions from 1973-84 and spent five years
 Anglican Orthodox Joint Doctrinal Discussions from 1973-84 and spent five years
in the mid 1990s as co-chairman of the Preparatory Commission for the Orthodox
Methodist Theological Dialogue. He has written three books, including The
Orthodox Church, and has translated three major Greek liturgical works. The first
of an eight-volume set of his own collected works, entitled The Inner Kingdom, was
recently published." (662)

The Greek island of Patmos, where the apostle John received his vision for the book of
Revelation, was and is still a hotbed of pagan worship. On the high point of the island, in the
very location where the monastery of St. John the Theologian now stands, there was in ancient
times a famous temple in honor of Diana, also called Artemis. The founder of the monastery,
Ioannis Christodoulos, was a leading figure in the Eastern church and monasticism at the time.

"In 313 AD, Christianity was officially recognized as the religion of the Roman
Empire and from this time the new faith spread rapidly throughout the Greek
islands. The eastern Christian empire of Byzantium exercised control over the isle
of Patmos and in the 4th century the ancient shrine of the goddess Diana was torn
down. Directly upon its foundations was erected a church dedicated to St. John but
this church was itself destroyed sometime between the 6th and 9th centuries when
the island was subjected to frequent raids by the Arabs. Left deserted after these
raids, Patmos next entered history in 1088 when a Byzantine emperor granted the
island to the monk Christodolous, whose intention it was to establish a monastery.
Built upon the remains of the old church and the older shrine of Diana, the
monastery of St. John has been in continuous operation for over 900 years." (1008)

From prehistoric times, the religion of Patmos was the worship of Artemis. There the Greek
Orthodox monks tore down the temple of Artemis in order to erect a monastery to St. John
instead. Or did they? Several occult sources agree that Diana/Artemis was the bisexual god,
Janus/Jana; and a Roman philosopher informs us that the Roman variant of 'John' is
'Janus/Jana'. Robert Graves stated in The White Goddess: "...Janus was really the oak-god
Dianus who was incarnate in the King of Rome..." - (406:69) "Macrobius...says that Janus is
two-faced because he is a fusion of Artemis and Apollo (i.e., Sun and Moon, Janus and Jana =
Dianus and Diana); thus he corresponds to the alchemical hermaphrodite..." (983)

In The Cult of the Black Virgin, Ean Begg confirms the duality and bisexuality of Janus/Diana,
adding that Janus was also John: "Janus is one of the most important Roman gods. His two
faces illustrate not only his role as deity of beginnings, looking to past and future, but his
essential duality as the original bisexual chaos and the form which emerged from it. Diana/Jana
and Saturn are especially associated with him. He may have been Gallicized into Jean (John),
one of the companions to the Black Virgin." (272:7)

Monastic communities have historically built their monasteries and other edifices on the sacred
sites of pagans, where human sacrifice was practiced as part of their Satanic rites. The
construction of monasteries and cathedrals on sacred sites proliferated due to the fact that such
sites were connected to an underground energy grid known today as ley lines. With the advance
of Christianity, the worship of pagan gods and goddesses declined and was eventually
proscribed by the Roman Catholic Church. To circumvent this prohibition, pagans simply
disguised themselves as Christian monks and infiltrated the Church, where they were, whether
unwittingly or no, given carte blanche as 'holy men' to reactivate the ancient underground grid:

"These mystical, occult [ley] lines join together the sacred sites thus making a grid
which is a force or source field - ancient magic of the cabbalists and shamans...
 which is a force or source field - ancient magic of the cabbalists and shamans...
'The ancestors walked the land, also filling it with spiritual forces. These forces are
concentrated in sacred sites [which] include fertility sites, conception sites,
initiation sites, and cremation and burial sites. Graham Mundine has shown how the
ley-lines of the pagan world are to be reactivated from sacred site to sacred site, as
the 'Rainbow Spirit Theology' book discloses." (70:15)

In their New Age book The Light Shall Set You Free, Norma Milanovich and Shirley McCune
expound at length upon the electromagnetic grid that was developed by the gods of Atlantis.
This matrix of sacred sites were and are still believed to connect mankind to the underworld
and the 'divine cosmos'. In the selection from the book below, the hyperlinked words and
phrases lead to more detailed information in another report, Heeding Bible Prophecy, which
outlines the various elements of the New Age plan to recreate pre-flood world of Atlantis via
demonic beings who will present themselves as reincarnated Atlantean high priests and
priestesses.

"In Atlantis, an etheric energy matrix existed beneath the Earth's surface,
providing a lattice network for such activities as telepathic communication and
healing. This matrix was known as a grid...
"This grid was a system of electromagnetic frequencies created through
worldwide linkages made by human thought waves and energy transmitted by the
Earth and through crystals. The system followed a carefully designed global
plan...[which] embodied the study and form of geomancy, which means the
divination of lines drawn at random...
"...The electromagnetic grid was built by the Thrice-Greatest Geomancer and
Master of Earth known as Hermes Trismegistus and the High Priests and
Priestesses of Atlantis who came to earth to build a great civilization for this part of
the galaxy...
"...The effect of this grid was to connect humans to the Earth though the power
of Spirit.
"Hermes and other beings of Light first implanted celestial crystals within the
etheric bodies of the High Priests and Priestesses and then within those of the Light
Workers of the hierarchy. These crystals contained symbolic and geometric coding
from the Universal Language of Light that send out frequencies to connect signals
emanating from points of Light. This effort formed lines of Light radiating from
their etheric bodies which connected to the Earth, forming the Illuminated web of
Divine energy...
"These select emissaries of the Divine journeyed to various lands and sites. Each
time they visited foreign places, the currents of energy were made stronger... The
grid truly connected the Heavens and Earth and formed the perfect Oneness...
"That was the state of affairs when Atlantis was in it glory, But... Certain
individuals, not of the priesthood, began to rise to power and change the systems,
which resulted in disaster. In time, Atlantis fell, and...many of these great
accomplishments were buried with the land underneath the ocean floor... Some of
the survivors, who were keepers of this sacred knowledge on geomancy, settled in
Egypt and the Yucatán, keeping a portion of the mysteries and knowledge alive...
history would reveal that the souls of the High Priests and Priestesses would
reincarnate to rebuild Atlantis in the form of the Seventh Golden Age. That time is
now." (45:346-50)

There were other sacred sites in Greece as well. The following article notes that Mary, the
mother of Jesus Christ, was declared the "Mother of God' at the Council of Ephesus, which city
mother of Jesus Christ, was declared the "Mother of God' at the Council of Ephesus, which city
was the very heart of Diana/Artemis worship. Some churchmen attempt to ascribe the rise of
cult of the Black Virgin in Ephesus to the worship of Mary, the mother of Jesus, who, they
claim (without a shred of evidence) lived there with John in her later years. This begs the
question, however, the worship of Artemis being the obvious reason for the Black Virgin cult in
Ephesus. Ean Begg traces the origins of Black Virgin statues in Greece to pre-Christian idols of
Artemis, whose duality is expressed in her contradictory images. In Ephesus, she was the many-
breasted Black Virgin; in Arcadia and Sparta, the lesbian goddess invoked by women
participating in same-sex unions.

"It is debatable how far the Artemis of Greece, the 'maiden huntress', should be
identified with the many-breasted, fertile, Ephesian goddess. Between them they
combine the paradox of virgin and mother which is at the heart of Christian Marian
dogma...
"It is with Artemis of Ephesus rather than the Arcadian Lady of Wild Things that
we must now concern ourselves in the quest for the origins of the Black Virgin.
According to legend she started as a black meteoric stone... Ephesus was where the
Virgin Mary traditionally spent her closing years before her Dormition and
Assumption, with St John, before his exile to Patmos. In Ephesus in AD 431 the
Virgin Mary was proclaimed 'Mother of God', and her cult spread thence to the city
of the she-wolf, Rome, and so to all the corners of the world, as, indeed, a
thousand years earlier had that of her predecessor, the Black Ephesian. The best
known image of Artemis of Ephesus, a Roman alabaster and bronze statue of the
second century, shows her with a black face, hands and feet, multiple breasts, on
her head a mural crown or tower, and on her dress images including bulls, goats,
deer and a bee...
"Artemis is hostile to love and punishes sexual transgressors severely.
Unawakened little girls, brownies playing bears to her honour in the forest, are
great favourites of hers, but boys fare less well at the hands of her devotees. In
Sparta, youths were flogged in front of the statue of Artemis Orthia (upright), in a
combination of fertility rite and painful puberty initiation. The sexual puritanism of
the new goddess of Christianity, with its proliferation of monastic establishments,
would not altogether have displeased Arcadian Artemis." (272:54)

Another New Age fable imagines that, during his exile on the island of Patmos, the apostle John
crafted a Black Madonna which was removed to France. No proof of this absurdity exists,
however, the tale does demonstrate that the Black Virgin was venerated on Patmos.

"One of the treasured relics taken from the Cathar stronghold of Montsegur,
France, just before its fall to the Inquisition, was a statue of the Christian Black
Madonna crafted by St. John on the Isle of Patmos. It was a simple artwork, for
John was not a skilled craftsman; but it was and is a venerated talisman,
empowered by St. John during his mystical trances, through which he imparted the
Book of Revelation." (1025)

Atlantis?

We interject here that Chuck Missler of Koinonia House sponsored an 'Exclusive

Archaeological Cruise Event' called The Malta Expedition. Tourists sailed to the islands of
Patmos, Malta and Crete with excursions to Ephesus and Athens, where they visited the
Acropolis, Parthenon and Mars Hill. Two days were spent on the island of Malta, where the
tour visited the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Malta!
tour visited the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Malta!

Day 7 - Tuesday, April 6

Early arrival on Malta. Visit Valletta - A World Heritage Site, Grand Master's
Palace (War Room), Paul's Cave, Paul's Shipwrecked Church, the fishing villages
and an ancient Tarxien temple. Exclusive evening dinner and book signing at the
Palazzo Parisio with dignitaries and those who assisted in the discovery of Paul's
Anchors.

Valletta, the capital of Malta, has 320 monuments making it one of the most concentrated
historic areas in the world and one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. At Valetta the tour also
visited an ancient Tarxien temple. 'Tarxien' means 'huge stone' which describes those used for the
numerous prehistoric temples on Malta. The World Monuments Fund is trying to help protect
these temples. In Lady of the Beasts: The Goddess and Her Sacred Animals, Buffie Johnson
informs that Malta was renown for its temples and monuments to the Mother Goddess.

"Even in the monument strewn islands of the Mediterranean, the spiritual

singularity of the goddess temples of Malta is conspicuous. Built with monumental
boulders, yet finished with the first dressed stone within, these temples were
designed in a unique apsidal arrangement resembling the clover leaf form of the
goddess herself. Some temples, large enough to be compared with cathedrals, were
expanded through the addition of vaulted circular chambers. They contained altars,
fonts, ovens for baking sacred bread, and many goddess figures; the remains of one
are nearly six feet in height. A visit to the monuments there reveals convincing
evidence of goddess worship." (141:68)

The stated purpose of the Malta Expedition was to view the newly-discovered 'lost anchors' of
Paul's second missionary journey. The discoverer of the 'lost anchors of Paul' is Robert
Cornuke, president of the Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration Institute (BASE).
Cornuke's books are offered by the ministries of Chuck Missler and J.R. Church, as well as
many other so-called Christian ministries. There is no evidence that Cornuke, whose
organization co-sponsored the Malta cruise, has discovered these anchors but this did not deter
the promoters from publishing their speculations as facts.

The Misslers' excursion appeared to be a pretext for promoting ancient centers of occult activity
as historic Christian sites and this scheme may be even more sophisticated. Gaining in
popularity is the theory is that the Mediterranean Sea is the location of the lost civilization of
Atlantis! Archaeologists claim they have located underwater structures off the coast of Malta
and the latest studies argue the existence of an advanced civilization that predates dynastic
Egypt. Graham Hancock's recent book devoted 120 pages to evidence that Malta was the tip of
the former continent of Atlantis.

"Last year the idea that Malta was Atlantis gained international recognition and
featured in popular television documentaries, publications and guidebooks. A
Russian TV crew had visited Malta for this purpose and a documentary was
screened on OTR channel 1 in the Soviet Union. Piero Angela, of Super Quark, was
also interested enough to come to Malta to make a documentary about the subject.
David Furlong, author of Keys to the Temples, was also in Malta to study the
positions of prehistoric sites and compare them with British sites. The theory that
Malta was Atlantis was published in the Italian journal of archaeology Hera, while
the French journal Archeologie also carried articles about it. Best selling author
Graham Hancock had also published a book 'Underworld, flooded kingdoms of the
 Graham Hancock had also published a book 'Underworld, flooded kingdoms of the
Ice Age' in the UK, dedicating 120 pages out of its total of 761 to Malta and the
publications Malta: Echoes of Plato's Island, and Dossier Malta - evidence for the
Magdalenian, published in 1997. The latter had suggested that the presence of man
on Malta could date back to about 15000 to 12000 BC rather than the traditionally
accepted date of about 7000 BC." (1044)

Mount Athos

Bishop Kallistos Ware is also the President of the Friends of Mount Athos, a society dedicated
to the "the advancement of education of the public in the study and knowledge of the history,
culture, arts, architecture, natural history, and literature of the Orthodox monasteries of Mount
Athos and the promotion of the religious and other charitable work of the Holy Community and
monasteries of Mount Athos". We will therefore consider some of the "history, culture, arts,
architecture, natural history, and literature of the Orthodox monasteries of Mount Athos".

History. Mount Athos is no ordinary sacred site in Greece, but the very center of Orthodox
monasticism. "The religious history of Athos goes back long before the birth of Christianity
however. The great marble peak of Mt. Athos (6670 feet, 2033 meters) was mentioned as early
as Homer and Aiskhylos as being the first home of the Greek gods Zeus and Apollo before they
moved to Mt. Olympus. Pagan hermits have lived in the deep forests since prehistoric times for
it was known then, as it has been forgotten now, that places where the ancient gods had lived
still held great powers for humans." Today, Mount Athos is still held in great reverence as a
'Holy Mountain' and populated exclusively with monastic communities, as well as many
hermits, totaling over 2,000 monks from all of the Orthodox traditions.

"For in spiritual terms Athos is not of this world at all: it is, at least for
those who live there, a station in sacred space, a foretaste of paradise. Not for
nothing is it known as the Holy Mountain.
"For more than a thousand years Athos has existed as the principal centre
of monasticism for the Orthodox Church -- or rather for all the Orthodox
Churches. Ever since Byzantine times it has been a pan-Orthodox, multi-
national centre. There were once monasteries for Albanians, Amalfitans,
Bulgarians, Georgians, Moldavians, Russians, Serbs, and Wallachians as well
as Greeks. Today there are still houses for Bulgarians, Greeks, Romanians,
Russians, and Serbs. Furthermore Athos is unique for being a portion of
contemporary Europe entirely devoted to the monastic life and to nothing
else.
"Today the Mountain has a total population of some 2000 monks, a figure
that is steadily rising. Most follow the cenobitic tradition which brings monks
into communities for living, working, and worshipping together. Others
follow the eremitical tradition and live as hermits, either in small groups or as
solitaries. Between them they inhabit a variety of different establishments."
(1026)

Art and Architecture. Icons are an integral part of the Orthodox belief and tradition--a direct
violation of the 2nd commandment: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any
likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the
water under the earth." Exod. 20:4. During Paul's second missionary journey, while he was in
Greece, God spoke through the apostle commanding all men, and in particular the Greeks, to
repent of their idol worship:
 Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he
saw the city wholly given to idolatry... Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill,
and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.
For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this
inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship,
him declare I unto you. God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that
he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;... Neither
is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to
all life, and breath, and all things; Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God,
we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven
by art and man's device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now
commandeth all men every where to repent. Acts 17

There are, in fact, close to 18,000 icons on the 'Holy Mountain' of Athos today and many of
these are claimed to have performed miracles, particularly those of the Virgin Mary. Supposedly
largest collection of Christian art in the world, some of this artwork is blatantly pagan. For
example, one wall painting from an Athonite monastery displays a dragon eating the head of a
man; the facade of another monastery exhibits an All-Seeing Eye, the well-known symbol of
occult illumination. (1052)

Bill Schoenbelen writes from personal experience when he explains the occult meaning of the
All-Seeing Eye: "To 'open' the eye a little bit is to experience psychic powers. To open the eye
completely is to have your brain flooded with the 'pure' consciousness of Lucifer himself. This
is why one of the Masonic symbols is the 'All-Seeing Eye.' It is a symbol of Illumination. This
is Satan's counterfeit for being Born Again. In it, you acquire a 'personal relationship' with
Lucifer. You begin to think his thoughts and see with his eyes. You begin to look at humans the
way he does. It is not a pretty sight." (39:365)

In the Greek Orthodox Church, there the many dark icons that can be considered Black Virgins.
The Athens News Agency stated on November 11, 2002: "Several Eastern Orthodox
monasteries are located on Mount Athos, an all-male community dedicated to the Madonna for
a millennium." Monastic communities in the Roman Catholic Church, particularly the
Carmelite and Benedictine, were noted for their devotion to the Black Virgin. This is
understandable, considering that monasticism was birthed in Egypt (where Isis was worshipped)
and Christianized in Alexandria (where the Mary Magdalene cult arose), whence it was
transported to the Roman Empire by Athanasius, the Bishop of Alexandria, and to the
Byzantine Empire by Basil the Great. Subsequent to their genesis in Egypt, Black Virgins were
worshipped by monastic communities of the Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches, in
that order. Ean Begg stated, "Since the Catholic [Black Virgin] icons are Byzantine in origin, it
seems worth indicating some in Greece that are mentioned as potential [Black Virgins]..."
(272:239) The Mount Athos icon in the Monastery of Dochairou "is of a totally Black Virgin
and Child".

Culture. Mount Athos is also a major center for the gnostic tradition of hesychasm, which is a
Byzantine form of contemplative prayer directed toward ecstatic mystical experience. A practice
akin to Zen Buddhism and Hindu Yoga, hesychasm involves striving for 'inner stillness' as a
means to having visions of 'the divine light'.

"The monks of Mount Athos accepted Hesychasm. According to Gregory of Sinai,

the founder of hesychia, monks could see the ‘uncreated light of God’, the light that
shone about Christ at his Transfiguration on Mount Tabor, if they were virtuous
 shone about Christ at his Transfiguration on Mount Tabor, if they were virtuous
and devoted themselves exclusively to prayer, seated from morn to eve in the same
place, concentrating and repeating silently the prayer ‘Lord Jesus Christ have
mercy on me’. The hope that they could thus come close to God was perhaps a
reaction to the ever increasing external dangers and the collapse of the Byzantine
Empire." (1026)

The Philokalia is a five-volume collection of 'spiritual wisdom' in the Orthodox tradition that
was written between the 4th and 15th centuries by the 'Holy Fathers' of the Orthodox tradition
and preserved within Mount Athos monasteries. Co-edited by Bishop Kallistos Ware,
Philokalia: The Complete Text is a source book for the Orthodox on the practices of
Hesychasm, the Jesus Prayer, Nepsis or Inner Attention, Asceticism and Theosis, which is the
deification of man doctrine embraced by the Greek Orthodox Church. A book review of The
Philokalia reveals that the objective of repeating the Jesus Prayer is personal deification---the
Satanically-inspired lie, 'ye shall be as gods':

"The goal is to repeat without ceasing the Jesus Prayer, whether aloud or not.
Literally without ceasing. The prayer should revolve in the mind even while eating,
speaking with others, or sleeping. Thus perpetual communion with God, the
purpose of human existence, can be fulfilled. Theosis, deification, partaking of the
divine nature, gaining the divinity that God has extended to us, is the purpose of
practicing the Jesus Prayer in this way, just as it is the purpose of asceticism,
hesychasm, and other practices."

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know
that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as
gods, knowing good and evil. - Gen. 3:4-5

The founder of hesychasm, Gregory of Sinai, also invented the 'Jesus Prayer', a 'monologistic'
prayer, which means praying ‘Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me’ repeatedly and
contemplatively while seated in the same place. (In some Russian traditions the phrase “a
sinner” is added at the end.) Repeating this prayer from morning to evening is supposed to
fulfill Paul's command to 'pray without ceasing.'

Bishop Kallistos Ware has written and lectured extensively on the practice of hesychasm, which
originated at Mount Athos. His book, The Inner Kingdom, begins with a chapter on "Silence in
Prayer: the Meaning of Hesychia". In the year 2002, Ware was also a presenter for the John
Main Seminar, an annual event sponsored by the World Community for Christian Meditation. A
promotional piece for Bishop Ware's seminar presents a word-for-word description of the
hesychast technique:

"Countless Christians over the centuries have found a way of entry through
practicing the invocation of the Holy Name: in the West often through the repetition
of the name 'Jesus' on its own; in the East more commonly through a longer phrase,
such as 'Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.'" (572)

Apposite to Bishop Ware's leadership in the advocacy of hesychasm, one medieval Patriarch of
Constantinople by the name of 'Callistus' created an uproar in the Greek Orthodox Church when
he persecuted opponents of hesychasm:

"In the fourteenth century a pseudo-spiritualism akin to that of the ancient Euchites
or Messalians, culminating in the famous Hesychast controversies (see
 or Messalians, culminating in the famous Hesychast controversies (see
HESYCHASM; PALAMAS), greatly disturbed the mutual harmony of Greek
monasteries, especially those of Mount Athos, one of whose monks, Callistus, had
become Patriarch of Constantinople (1350-54) and in that office exhibited great
severity towards the opponents of Hesychasm. Racial and national discord between
the Greeks and the Servians added fuel to the flames, and for a while the monks
were again subjected to the immediate supervision of the Bishop of Hierissus."
(548)

Literature. Before relocating to Mt. Athos to teach the monks the hesychast method of
contemplation, Gregory of Sinai belonged to the Monastery of St. Katherine at Mt. Sinai. It was
at this convent that the gnostic manuscript, Sinaiticus Aleph, was discovered by Constantin
Tischendorf in the 19th century. The Sinaiticus Aleph along with infamous Vaticanus B were
used by B.F. Westcott and F.J.A. Hort as the basis for their corrupt New Greek Text from
which modern versions of the Bible are translated.

Mount Athos was ever a hotbed of gnostic occultism. James H. Sightler, author of A Testimony
Founded Forever, sheds more light on the pivotal role of the Mount Athos monks in preserving
the Corpus Hermeticum. These were the core documents of the Hermetic tradition which were
unavailable to the West in classical times but 'rediscovered' in Athos during the Renaissance,
and delivered to Europe where they were translated and disseminated. Dr. Sightler is of the
opinion that the Vaticanus B was also preserved at Mount Athos, and there is evidence that the
Codex Alexandrinus was found there as well.

"Frances Yates relates that a monk from Macedonia, Leonardo da Pistoria,

working for Cosmo de Medici, brought the Corpus Hermeticum to Florence about
1460, where it was translated by Marsilio Ficino. Michael Psellus knew of this
manuscript in his day in the eleventh century, and I believe that the Corpus
Hermeticum actually came from Mount Athos, which is a peninsula of Macedonia.
I say this because of the mystical and Hermetic influences in religious practice and
art on Athos which we have just noted, and I am also convinced that Codex B was
found there by Bessarion at just about the same time as the discovery of the Corpus
Hermeticum."
"...It is interesting that F.H.A. Scrivener's book, A Plain Introduction to the
Criticism of the New Testament, shows in its index 30 references to Mount Athos
covering 53 manuscripts which were found there. At the time of publication of this
book in 1883 about 650 New Testament Manuscripts had been found. Therefore
about eight per cent were from Athos. The index lists 5 ms. from Patmos, 20 from
St. Saba in Jerusalem, 16 from the monastery of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem,
20 from Jamina in Epirus, and 6 from St. Catherine on Mt. Sinai. For those
manuscripts whose origin is known, Mount Athos is the most frequent source...
Furthermore, Hatch's catalogue of uncials of 1939, cited previously, lists a total of
7 uncials from Athos, only 4 of which had been catalogued by Scrivener. Of these
6 are Byzantine and one, Codex Alexandrinus, is mixed. Scrivener states that
Wetstein, on the authority of Matthew Muttis, a deacon attached to Cyril Lukar,
believed that Cyril had obtained Codex A from Mount Athos... Foakes Jackson and
Kirsopp Lake agree with Scrivener and point out that Cyril was on Mount Athos in
1612-1613. I believe that Codex B as well had been removed from Athos l 50 years
before by Bessarion."...
"It is now no longer necessary to believe Tischendorf's claim that Codices B and
Aleph were once located and used in Constantinople. Jackson and Lake give the
opinion that Codex B 'was brought from Alexandria to Sicily by fugitives from the
 opinion that Codex B 'was brought from Alexandria to Sicily by fugitives from the
conquering Arabs, in the seventh century, and thence to Calabria. Nothing is known
which suggests that it remained in the East until the fifteenth century and was then
brought to Rome under the influence of the revival of letters.'...
"Both B and Aleph were written in Egypt. I believe that both were there,
probably in Alexandria, in 640 A.D. when the Arabs under Amrou captured the city
after a siege of fourteen months. I believe they were removed by Egyptian
anchorites before the city fell and taken to the island of Crete to be kept, perhaps in
the famous Labyrinth cave, known from antiquity, by the monks and their
successors until 823 A.D. when the Saracens captured portions of the island. At that
time Codex B was taken to Mount Athos, where the earliest monastic
communities were just arising, or to Mistra. The Corpus Hermeticum could
have been carried along with it as well. Aleph was taken by other monks to Mt.
Sinai, where the monastery of St. Catherine had been built by Justinian in the
eighth century. These codices then remained in their respective places until
Bassarion took Codex B from Athos or Mistra in 1846 and Tischendorf retrieved
Aleph in 1859...
"At the Council of Florence Cosimo de Medici met Bassarion and his mentor,
Plethon, and was moved by them to back the establishment of a school at Florence
for the study and dissemination of Neo-Platonic philiosphy. Bassarion and Plethon
in 1442 founded the Academia Platonica at Florence. Cosimo provided funds for
the acquisition of rare manuscripts, including copies of the Corpus Hermeticum,
Plato, and Plutarch, as well a Biblical manuscripts. He later gave a villa at Careggi,
near Florence, to a student and colleague of Plethon and Bassarion, Marsilio
Ficino, who was the first to translate the Corpus, Plato and Platinus into Latin and
carried on the work of the academy." (350:128-33)

According to Ian Paisley's European Institute of Protestant Studies (EIPS), "Mount Athos
comes under the spiritual jurisdiction of the Patriarch of Constantinople, but enjoys the status of
a semi-autonomous republic within Greece. Not only was this spelt out in the Greek
constitution as recently as 1975, when Greece entered the European Union six years later the
monasteries were specifically excluded from the jurisdiction of EU equality legislation."
Unfortunately, the Mount Athos community has accepted "EU funds to help preserve both their
treasures and the fabric of the monasteries"--a compromise having major consequences: On
September 4, 2003 "A plenary session of the Euro-Parliament has passed a proposal-report
demanding that the Greek government rescind the special protection the monks have enjoyed
for a millennium."

This eventuality has the makings of an ecumenical uprising against the European Union and a
groundswell of support for the poor monks of Mount Athos. Which is precisely what the social
transformers have in mind to galvanize popular support for Joachim's mystical utopia---where
"the world would be one vast monastery, in which all men would be contemplative monks rapt
in mystical ecstasy..."

NEW ORDER OF MYSTICAL KNIGHTHOOD

Bishop Kallistos Ware is involved in a number of ecumenical initiatives the purpose of which is
to unite Protestant, Catholics and Orthodox, not along the lines of doctrinal beliefs, but through
an assimilation of the doctrinal (watered down to mere theism) into the mystical. For example,
Bishop Ware co-edited the aforementioned complete text of The Philokalia and also contributed
to James Cutsinger's book Paths to the Heart: Sufism and the Christian East, which is a
collection of essays by Greek Orthodox and Islamic spiritualists finding common ground in the
collection of essays by Greek Orthodox and Islamic spiritualists finding common ground in the
esoteric traditions of their respective religions.

This philosophy is termed the religio perennis, the 'eternal religion', which means that "every
religion has, besides its literal meaning, an esoteric dimension, which is essential, primordial
and universal." (1037) Frithjof Schuon, considered the foremost spokesman of religio perennis
and author of books such as The Transcendent Unity of Religions, calls this dialogue 'esoteric
ecumenism'.

"These commonalities suggest the possibility for a deeper kind of religious dialogue
than is customary in our day, a dialogue which seeks to foster what Frithjof Schuon
has called inward or 'esoteric' ecumenism, and which, while respecting the integrity
of traditional dogmas and rites, 'calls into play the wisdom which can discern the
one sole Truth under the veil of different forms'." (1027)

This strategy has been voiced by a number of leading figures in Protestantism, Catholicism and
Orthodoxy; in fact, these are the very personages with whom Bishop Ware is sharing platforms
in symposiums such as the Ecumenical Conference for Traditional Christians sponsored by
Touchstone Magazine. All of the presenters at this conference—Dom Laurence Freeman, a
Benedictine monk and Director of the World Center for Christian Meditation, J.I. Packer of
Renovare and Richard Neuhaus (Catholic priest/author, ECT Document), Harold O.J. Brown of
the UN/Mormon-affiliated World Congress of Families, James Cutsinger (mentioned above)
and others—are affiliated with heterodox organizations.

The John Main Seminar is an annual event held by the UK-based World Center for Christian
Mediation to "celebrates the life and teaching of the Benedictine monk whose life's work was
passing on the ancient practice of Christian Meditation." The seminar has in the past featured as
speakers the Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, who is a member of the Order of
Druids; the Dalai Lama, the Buddhist High Priest; assorted Catholic priests; and Kallistos Ware,
who was presenter of the seminar in 2002.

"Bishop Kallistos of Diokleia (Timothy Ware) will lead the John Main Seminar
2002. He is a member of the Monastery of St. John the Theologian, Patmos, Greece
and one of the Assistant Bishops of the Orthodox Archdiocese of Thyateira and
Great Britain (under the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople).
"Since 1966, Bishop Kallistos has taught in the Faculty of Theology at Oxford
University and is a past chairman of the board of the theology department in
Oxford. Active in work for Christian unity, among his many charisms, Bishop
Kallistos also speaks French. His books include 'The Orthodox Church' and 'The
Orthodox Way', and he is co-translator of 'The Philokalia'. His latest book is 'The
Inner Kingdom', published in 2000...

Prior to the Archbishop of Canterbury's installation ceremony last year, Rowan Williams was
inducted into the Ancient Order of Druids. We suspect that the Church of England's affiliation
with the Druid Order is really nothing new; that all who have filled this high office of the
Church of England have been closet Druids. The Times article, "Why the Archbishop is
embracing pagan roots" by Ruth Gledhill, July 19, 2002, reported the event:

"...the new Archbishop of Canterbury will be inducted as a druid in a 200-year-old

ceremony with pagan roots in Wales next month. As the sun rises over a circle of
Pembrokeshire bluestones, the Archbishop of Wales, the Most Rev Dr Rowan
Williams, will don a long white cloak while druids chant a prayer to the ancient god
and goddess of the land. After a trumpet fanfare and the thrice partial sheathing and
unsheathing of a 6ft6in sword, a citation will be read. Dr Williams will close his
hands in prayer while the archdruid, wearing a crown and shield over his bardic
robes, will enfold them in his own and utter words of welcome. That will be the
moment that Dr Williams, who will adopt a new, bardic name, is accepted into the
white druidic order, the highest of three orders of the Gorsedd of Bards, the Welsh
body of poets, musicians, writers and artists. The Mistress of the Robes, Sian
Aman, will then clothe him in a druidic white headdress, and a steward will lead
him to join the other assembled druids inside a sacred circle." (595)

The Dalai Lama, a presenter at the WCCM John Main Seminar in 1994, has of late been
conjuring evil spirits in Hitler's old stomping grounds in preparation for the Fourth Reich.
These rituals, which are detailed on a Buddhist education website, will hopefully give the reader
an idea of the teachings of the Dalai Lama at the John Main Seminars.

"On October 11-23, 2002, the Kalachakra for World Peace will take place in
Graz, Austria. Thousands of participants from over 30 nations are to be initiated
into tantric teachings by the Dalai Lama XIV. The event is being supported by the
Mayor of Graz and the Provincial and Federal Government in Austria. The
Kalachakra tantra ritual is the key initiation rite into tantric or Tibetan Buddhism. It
is a shamanistic process involving the conjuring of 722 spirits to be released over
the land.
"According to church leaders in Austria and Germany the Dalai Lama wants to
make Graz the pillar of a bridge for Buddhism into the Western world. Buddhists
prophesied that the next Dalai Lama will reincarnate in the Western world. In Graz
children shall be presented to the Dalai Lama, to see if the next dalai lama is
among them. According to some prayer leaders the rituals in Graz are linking into
the nazi mythology that was typical for Austria during the Third Reich. Graz at that
time was the main city embracing Hitler...
"The Kalachakra tantra ritual is the key initiation rite into tantric or Tibetan
Buddhism and is given over the course of 12 days. First, there are eight days of
preparatory rituals, during which monks make a mandala. The Dalai Lama presides
over the complex event, which, essentially, is a shamanistic process involving the
conjuring of 722 spirits through music, prayers, veneration, dances etc. These
spirits are invited to take up residence in the mandala, or spiritual house, which has
been built for them. The initiation event is completed when the Dalai Lama ritually
destroys the mandala after all meditation and initiatory rites have been completed.
The spirits are thereby released over the land while the initiates retain the spiritual
connection to Kalachakra and his world, having internalized them through
 connection to Kalachakra and his world, having internalized them through
meditation. The sand from the mandala is poured into a nearby body of water; in
Graz, the river Mur, which flows from Austria to Slovenia - where the Dalai Lama
also starts his visits and preparations." (991)

In addition to his activities at the World Community for Christian Meditation, Kallistos Ware
has shared platforms with Benedictine monk, Dom Laurence Freeman of the John Main
Institute, J.I. Packer and Richard Neuhaus (authors of the ECT Document), Harold O.J. Brown
of the UN/Mormon-affiliated World Congress of Families and other Catholic and Evangelical
priests and apologists. The following brochure was published in Touchstone Magazine, a
Journal of the Greek Orthodox Fellowship of St. James, advertising a 1995 conference to
promote ecumenism among the Catholic, Protestant and Orthodox traditions. (Editor's

Not of This World:

An Ecumenical Conference for Traditional Christians

Co-sponsored by Rose Hill College and Touchstone

May 16-20, 1995

Hosted by Rose Hill College (Aiken South Carolina)

Ecumenical gatherings are hardly unique, but they have too often
been excuses for dismantling the faith. This conference, "Not of
this World: An Ecumenical Conference for Traditional
Christians," tried something different: to test whether an
"ecumenical orthodoxy," solidly based upon the classic Christian
faith, can become the foundation for a unified and
transformative witness to the age we live in.

Leading theologians and other Christian scholars, who represent

a variety of affiliations and backgrounds, but who are alike in
their personal and intellectual commitment to the traditional
Christian faith, gathered to discuss whether they can together
defend and communicate their common faith in an increasingly
faithless world.

"Edited by a bevy of mainly younger Protestants, Orthodox, and

Roman Catholics, Touchstone advances an ecumenism of
orthodoxy defined by the Great Tradition. The Touchstone
people are bracingly conscientious and determined to follow
where the Spirit leads." - Richard John Neuhaus, Editor-in-
Chief, First Things [Roman Catholic]

"Touchstone serves the most significant form of ecumenical

endeavor today: the rallying and coalescing of those in all the
churches who stand for doctrinal, moral, and devotional
orthodoxy. The fact that Touchstone exists to serve this purpose
gives it great importance." - J. I. Packer Author, Knowing God
[Anglican]

"Touchstone is a voice that greatly needs to be heard in today's

Christian world. If this is what robust ecumenism means, we
need more of it!" - Kallistos Ware, Bishop of Diokleia &
Spalding Lecturer in Eastern Studies at Oxford University
[Eastern Orthodox]

This alliance of Reformed, Roman Catholic and Orthodox traditions, which calls itself the
'Confessing Movement,' is appealing to all Christians, i.e. Protestant, Roman Catholic or
Orthodox, to embrace the teachings and practices of mysticism as authentic Christianity. Those
who practice Gnostic mysticism usually hide within the organized Church system and claim to
follow primitive Christianity. A.E. Waite wrote in The Hidden Church of the Holy Grail:

"...I should look assuredly to the East, in the direction of that pure catholic
gnosticism which lies like a pearl of great price within the...shell of external
Christianity, which is not of Marcion or Valentinus, or Cerenthus and all their
cohorts, but is the unexpressed mystery of experience in deep wells which issue no
strife or sects." - 179:681

DEIFICATION THROUGH THE DIVINE ENERGIES

According to Webster's Dictionary, mysticism is:

1. the experience of mystical union or direct communion with ultimate reality

reported by mystics; 2. the belief that direct knowledge of God, spiritual truth, or
 reported by mystics; 2. the belief that direct knowledge of God, spiritual truth, or
ultimate reality can be attained through subjective experience (as intuition or
insight); 3. a vague speculation : a belief without sound basis b : a theory
postulating the possibility of direct and intuitive acquisition of ineffable knowledge
or power.

Mystics rely primarily on subjective experiences to formulate their beliefs about God, rather
than making Scripture the final authority in matters of faith and practice. The writings of
mystics may claim the primacy of Scripture, but in practice they ignore its finer points of
doctrine. For example, the following promotional for the John Main Seminar described the
mantra technique taught by Kallistos Ware for receiving visions of the divine light of God. The
use of mantras, however, is a direct violation of Christ's command: But when ye pray, use not
vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much
speaking. Mt. 6:7

"Countless Christians over the centuries have found a way of entry through
practicing the invocation of the Holy Name: in the West often through the repetition
of the name 'Jesus' on its own; in the East more commonly through a longer phrase,
such as 'Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.'
"This is a prayer in words; but, because the words are so few and so simple, they
reach beyond the words into silence; more exactly, they enable us to discover the
silence that is hidden in the heart of the words themselves.
"In the Seminar we shall explore the distant origins of the Jesus Prayer among
the Desert Fathers and Mothers of Egypt. We shall see how in Sinai and Mount
Athos the invocation of the Name came to be accompanied by a physical
technique, involving a positive use of the body. We shall learn also how, in the
experience of the saints, the Jesus Prayer brought them to the vision of the Divine
Light of Tabor.
"The Jesus Prayer is a prayer that all can use, requiring as it does no special
knowledge or elaborate preparation; yet it is a prayer that leads to the deepest
mysteries of contemplation. It is being practiced today more than ever in the past,
and is especially suited to our present age of anxiety. Because it is rooted in the
traditions of both the Christian East and the Christian West, it can serve as a
powerful instrument in our shared quest for unity. The practice of the Jesus Prayer
is akin to the teaching of Christian Meditation and other forms of the rich tradition
of Christian contemplative prayer." - Bishop Kallistos of Diokleia (572)

Pagans also use mantras for invoking spirits. It is probable that another Jesus is summoned by
repeating the name in an invocatory manner, since the real Jesus has forbidden mindless
repetitive forms of prayer. Kallistos Ware nevertheless avers that suspending one's mental
faculties and repeating the 'Jesus Prayer' leads to a vision of the Divine Light of Tabor. This
mystical experience in greater detail in Kallistos Ware's book, The Orthodox Way:

“…God is revealed as light above all at the Transfiguration of Christ on Mount

Tabor, when ‘his face shone as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light’
(Matt. 17:2). This divine light, seen by the three disciples on the mountain—seen
also by many of the saints during prayer—is nothing else than the uncreated
energies of God. This light of Tabor, that is to say, is neither a physical and
created light, nor yet a purely metaphorical ‘light of the intellect’. Although non-
material, it is nevertheless an objectively existent reality. Being divine, the
uncreated energies surpass our human powers of description; and so, in terming
these energies ‘light’, we are inevitably employing the language of ‘sign’ and
 these energies ‘light’, we are inevitably employing the language of ‘sign’ and
symbol. Not that the energies are themselves merely symbolical. They genuinely
exist, but cannot be described in words; in referring to them as ‘light’ we use the
least misleading term, but our language is not to be interpreted literally.” (633:127)

The gnostic strives for visions of the Divine Light, yet nowhere in Scripture is the believer led
down the path to mystical experiences. The reader is then admonished by Kallistos Ware that
his senses must be 'transformed' in order to see the light that is non-physical. This paranormal
activity is attributed to the indwelling Holy Spirit.

“Although non-physical, the divine light can be seen by a man through his physical
eyes, provided that his senses have been transformed by divine grace. His eyes do
not behold the light by the natural powers of perception, but through the power of
the Holy Spirit acting within him.” (633:127)

Through an ecstatic vision of the Divine Light of Tabor, Kallistos Ware claims the body is
deified. The doctrine of the 'deification of man' is central to Eastern Orthodox doctrine This
false doctrine of deification runs the gamut of false religions. Not only do the 'transformed' eyes
see the Divine Light, the body is permeated with it. This sounds suspiciously like demon
possession.

“’The body is deified at the same time as the soul’ (St Maximus the Confessor).
He who beholds the divine light is permeated by it through and through, so that his
body shines with the glory that he contemplates. He himself becomes light.
Vladimir Lossky was not speaking merely in metaphors when he wrote: ‘The fire
of grace, kindled in the hearts of Christians by the Holy Spirit, makes them shine
like tapers before the Son of God.’ The Homilies of St Macarius affirm concerning
this transfiguration of man’s body:
“Just as the Lord’s body was glorified, when he went up the mountain and was
transfigured into the glory of God and into infinite light, so the saints’ bodies also
are glorified and shine as lightning… ‘The glory which thou hast given to me I
have given to them’ (John 17:22): just as many lamps are lit from one flame, so the
bodies of the saints, being members of Christ, must needs be what Christ is, and
nothing else… Our human nature is transformed into the power of God, and it is
kindled into fire and light.’
“…In the lives of the saints, Western as well as Eastern, there are numerous
examples of such bodily glorification… In The Sayings of the Desert Fathers we
are told how a disciple looked through the window of Abba Arsenius’ cell, and saw
the old man ‘like a flame of fire’. Of Abba Pambo, it is said, ‘God so glorified him
that no one could look at his face, because of the glory which his face had.’…
“…as Jacob Boehme puts it, ‘The darkness is not the absence of light, but the
terror that comes from the blinding light.’” (Bishop Kallistos Ware) - (633:128)

For theological support of the ecstatic experience of 'deification,' Bishop Ware appeals to
mystic monks and canonized saints as authorities, rather than Scripture—except to misapply the
Scriptures concerning the Transfiguration of Jesus Christ, who is Deity Himself. Jacob Boehme
(1575-1624), cited by Ware as a spiritual authority, was a German mystic whose writings were
a precursor to existentialist philosophy. Boehme directly influenced the German Romantics,
Hegel, Baader, and Schelling, and indirectly the existentialist philosophers Schopenhauer,
Nietzsche, Hartmann, Bergson, and Heidegger; Paul Tillich, Martin Buber and even Carl Jung.
Boehme's 'terror that comes from the blinding light' is a phenomenon peculiar to initiation rites.
Alice Bailey described this mystical experience in one of her many books channeled through
Alice Bailey described this mystical experience in one of her many books channeled through
her spirit guide, Djwal Khul, titled Discipleship in the New Age. In the chapter 'Teachings on
Initiation' Bailey states:

"We come now to our second point, that initiation veils a secret and that the
revelation of that secret is imminent. Just what this secret is, I may not reveal, but it
is concerned with a peculiar type of energy which can be induced at a moment of
supreme tension. The only possible hint I can give you in connection with this
mysterious matter is that it is closely related to the 'Blinding Light' which Saul of
Tarsus saw on the road to Damascus and the 'blinding light' which accompanied the
discharge of energy from the atomic bomb. The 'Blinding Light' which ever
accompanies true conversion (a rare and sudden happening always when true and
real) and which is an attendant demonstration of all Lives who have passed the
human stage of consciousness - according to their degree - and the light which is
released by the fission of the atom are one and the same expression on different
levels of consciousness, and are definitely related to the processes and effects of
initiation. This will not even make sense to you until certain initiate-experiences
have been undergone by you. It is not easy for the average aspirant to realize that
progressive stages upon the Path indicate a progressive ability to 'take the Light.'
When the aspirant prays in the new Invocation: 'Let Light descend on Earth' he is
invoking something which humanity will have to learn to handle; this is one of the
things for which the disciples of the world must begin to prepare the race of men."
(1028)

By way of comparison to Bishop Ware's meditative technique, we will now consider an extract
from Aleister Crowley's book, Magick in Theory and Practice, Chapter XV titled "Of the
Invocation". Note the elements common to 'Christian mystical' and 'Satanic magick' rituals of
invocation—forgetfulness, total passivity, letting oneself go, mantras suitable to the gods, the
blinding light (Lucifer), transformation of the body and union with God—after which Crowley
correctly observes "there is no distinction between magick and meditation"!!

"In the straightforward or 'Protestant' system of Magick... The Magician

addresses a direct petition to the Being invoked. But the secret of success in
invocation has not hitherto been disclosed. It is an exceedingly simple one. It is
practically of no importance whatever that the invocation should be 'right'. There
are a thousand different ways of compassing the end proposed, so far as external
things are concerned. The whole secret may be summarised in these four words:
"Enflame thyself in praying." This is Qabalistically expressed in the old Formula:
Domine noster, audi tuo servo! kyrie Christe! O Christe! [Our Lord, hear your
servant! Come Christ! O Christ!]
"The mind must be exalted until it loses consciousness of self. The Magician
must be carried forward blindly by a force which, though in him and of him, is by
no means that which he in his normal state of consciousness calls I. Just as the
poet, the lover, the artist, is carried out of himself in a creative frenzy, so must it be
for the Magician...
"Every Magician must compose his ceremony in such a manner as to produce a
dramatic climax. At the moment when the excitement becomes ungovernable, when
then the whole conscious being of the Magician undergoes a spiritual spasm, at that
moment must he utter the supreme adjuration.
"One very effective method is to stop short, by a supreme effort of will, again
and again, on the very brink of that spasm, until a time arrives when the idea of
exercising that will fails to occur. This forgetfulness must be complete; it is fatal to
 exercising that will fails to occur. This forgetfulness must be complete; it is fatal to
try to 'let oneself go' consciously.
"Inhibition is no longer possible or even thinkable, and the whole being of the
Magician, no minutest atom saying nay, is irresistibly flung forth. In blinding light,
amid the roar of ten thousand thunders, the Union of God and man is consummated.
"If the Magician is still seen standing in the Circle, quietly pursuing his
invocations, it is that all the conscious part of him has become detached from the
true ego which lies behind that normal consciousness. But the circle is wholly filled
with that divine essence; all else is but an accident and an illusion.
"The subsequent invocations, the gradual development and materialization of the
force, require no effort. It is one great mistake of the beginner to concentrate his
force upon the actual stated purpose of the ceremony. This mistake is the most
frequent cause of failures in invocation.
"A corollary of this Theorem is that the Magician soon discards evocation
almost altogether --- only rare circumstances demand any action what ever on the
material plane. The Magician devotes himself entirely to the invocation of a god;
and as soon as his balance approaches perfection he ceases to invoke any partial
god; only that god vertically above him is in his path. And so a man who perhaps
took up Magick merely with the idea of acquiring knowledge, love, or wealth, finds
himself irrevocably committed to the performance of The Great Work.
"It will now be apparent that there is no distinction between magick and
meditation except of the most arbitrary and accidental kind. There is the general
metaphysical antithesis that Magick is the Art of the Will-to-Live, Mysticism of the
Will-to-Die; but --- 'Truth comes bubbling to my brim; Life and Death are one to
Him!'.
"Beside these open methods thee are also a number of mental methods of
Invocation, of which we may give three.
"The first method concerns the so-called astral body. The Magician should
practise the formation of this body as recommended in Liber O, and learn to rise on
the planes according to the instruction given in the same book, though limiting his
'rising' to the particular symbol whose God he wishes to invoke.
"The second is to recite a mantra suitable to the God.
"The third is the assumption of the form of the God --- by transmuting the astral
body into His shape. This last method is really essential to all proper invocation,
and cannot be too sedulously practised." (1011)

Crowley stated that the end of this ceremony, and indeed of all ritual magick, is the 'Great
Work', which means the unification of the Microcosm (initiate) with the Macrocosm (Lucifer).
In other words, demon possession.

In Volume III of his series, The Spiritual Man, Watchman Nee warned against the spiritual
dangers of passivity in the believer, which opens the door to altered states of consciousness and
possession by demonic spirits.

"What primarily precipitates the enemy's invasion among the 'heathen' and among
carnal Christians is wilful sin; but 'the primary cause of deception ... in surrendered
believers may be condensed into one word, passivity; that is, a cessation of the
active exercise of the will in control over spirit, soul and body, or either, as may be
the case.' The organ of volition ceases to choose and decide matters referred to it.
'The word passivity simply describes the opposite condition to activity; and in the
experience of the believer it means, briefly, (1) loss of self-control in the sense of
the person himself controlling each, or all, of the departments of his personal being;
 the person himself controlling each, or all, of the departments of his personal being;
and (2) loss of freewill in the sense of the person himself exercising his will as the
guiding principle of personal control, in harmony with the will of God.' The
passivity of a saint arises out of the non-use of his various talents. He has a mouth
but refuses to talk because he hopes the Holy Spirit will speak through it. He has
hands but will not engage them since he expects God to do it. He does not exercise
any part of his person but waits for God to move him. He considers himself fully
surrendered to God; so he no longer will use any element of his being. Thus he falls
into an inertia which opens the way for deception and invasion." (1012)

The Lord Jesus also warned of the dangers of states of passivity. Luke 11 records the manner in
which Jesus taught His disciples to pray and His exhortation to ask for the Holy Spirit, with
simple faith they would receive precisely whatever they request of the Father. No vain
repetitions, no transformed senses, no visions of divine light, only humble believing prayer. In
fact, Jesus sternly admonished those who were seeking after signs and wonder, calling such men
an 'evil generation'. Our Lord also included a concise teaching on how to protect oneself against
demon possession. Having been delivered from the power of Satan, the Christian must guard
himself against any spiritual practice which would produce an altered state of consciousness.

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places,
seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came
out. And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he, and
taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and
dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Luke 11:24-26

THE HOUSE OF VERE

Is Kallistos Ware the False Prophet? If he would exercise all the power of the Antichrist, per
Revelation 13:12, the False Prophet must be a member of the Merovingian bloodline.
Previously mentioned is the fact that Godfroi de Bouillon—the first Grand Master of the
Knights Templar who captured Jerusalem in 1099—was a member of the Merovingian de Vere
bloodline. According to Dagobert's Revenge website, the exalted pedigree of this bloodline
requires an organization whose sole purpose to protect its purity and perpetuity:

"...The Holy Grail itself was Elven as was Jesus himself, complete with his
Crown of Fairy Thorns, depicted as the headgear of Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon in
the 12th century...
"The Dragon Court exists as an organization solely for the bloodline descendants
of the ancient Vere family — the senior bloodline successors as a Scythian-
Merovin, Elven House of Princess Maelasanu—and for those whose bloodlines are
extracted from this descent and its ancient Dragon Court." (342:5)

As King Arthur's Dragon Court was originally comprised of twenty-four knights, there are
currently twenty-four families representing the Rex Deus group and the Dragon Court. These
are supposedly descendants of Israel's twenty-four priestly families; they reign, but do not yet
rule, as occult priest kings. As stated, the Dragon Court exists to protect the descendants of the
ancient Vere family of the Merovingian bloodline, out of which will eventually come the
Antichrist. [See: Antichrist in Virgo] Prince Nicholas de Vere von Drakenberg is currently the
Sovereign Grand Master of the Imperial and Royal Dragon Court & Order.

The Druidic Council of Elders are represented by the Dragon Court, which is comprised of
twenty-six members of royalty from Eurasian countries that help comprise the European
twenty-six members of royalty from Eurasian countries that help comprise the European
Council of Princes. These twenty-six members will be a false twenty-four elders plus the
Antichrist and False Prophet. The Druidic head dragon king (Pendragon), which has historically
been called the 'King of Kings', will be the Antichrist.

Also previously documented in this series is the fact that Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair and his
son, Thomas, the former and current Grand Masters of the Prieuré de Sion, descended from
Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon, the first Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion. In Genesis of the
Grail Kings, Laurence Gardner identified the Plantard bloodline as a branch of the House of
Vere:

"The Plantagenets were themselves a junior branch of the House of Anjou, whose
senior branch was the House of Vere [whose] ancestry was jointly Pictish and
Merovingian descending from the ancient Grail House of Scythia." (248:8)

Kallistos Ware would also be a member of the Merovingian Vere bloodline. The following are
variations of the Vere surname found in different countries and various dialects. For example,
Weir is a Scottish form of Vere, the Old English Wer is related to Old Norse ver, Were is Old
Frisian, Wehr/Weir is German, etc.

VERE / WEIR: Vere, de Ver, Ver, de Ver, Veer, Vear(e), Veir, Veyre, Vare,
Veary, Very, Vary, Vire, Revere, Sver(e), Svar, Shpere, Spear(e), Spere, Svear,
Fere, Fear, Fairy; Ware, Wayer, Waer, Weyir, Weyr, Weir(e), Weier, Wear, Weary,
Wehre, Werre, Weer, Werr, Wyre

The werewolf is also derived from this surname.

WEREWOLF. \Were"wolf`\, n.; pl. {Werewolves}. [AS. werwulf; wer a man +

wulf a wolf; cf. G. w["a]rwolf, w["a]hrwolf, wehrwolf, a werewolf, MHG.
werwolf. [root]285. See {Were} a man, and {Wolf}, and cf. {Virile}, {World}.]
A person transformed into a wolf in form and appetite, either temporarily or
permanently, whether by supernatural influences, by witchcraft, or voluntarily; a
lycanthrope. Belief in werewolves, formerly general, is not now extinct. (868)

Prominent names related to the Vere/Weir bloodline are found at the highest levels of the
various sectors of society:

Economy: Warburg (Banking), Verifone (Mondex)

Education: B.J. Weir (Transgenics), Virgil, Thomas Weir (Sorcerer of Edinburgh),

Thomas A. Weir (Masonic High Priest), John Ferguson Weir (Skull & Bones '83),
Weirus (16th c. Sorcerer)

King James I opened his book, The Daemonologie, with mention of a German occultist named
Weirus: "...WIERUS, a German Phisition, sets out a publick apologie for all these crafts-folks,
wherby, procuring for their impunitie, he plainely bewrayes himselfe to have bene one of that
profession."

It is also noteworthy that President George Bush is also a member of the Merovingian Vere
bloodline. See our report: Heeding Bible Prophecy

The name Vere means 'Truth'. In the French language, the word for 'truth' is 'vérité'; German is
'verdad'; Italian is 'verità'; Latin is 'veritas'. As in William Cooper's organization, Veritas.

Edgar Allen Poe's Ulalume is full of esoteric meaning which only an occultist would
comprehend. However, Poe's obsession with the 'ghoul-haunted woodland of Weir' is explicable
and relevant to any inquiry as to the identity of the two Beasts of Revelation 13.

Our talk had been serious and sober,

But our thoughts they were palsied and sere—
Our memories were treacherous and sere—
For we knew not the month was October,
And we marked not the night of the year—
(Ah, night of all nights in the year!)
We noted not the dim lake of Auber—
(Though once we had journeyed down here)—
We remembered not the dank tarn of Auber,
Nor the ghoul-haunted woodland of Weir. (981)

"Weir" is the German spelling of the ancient French House of Vere of the Merovingian
bloodline. And it is from the the Vere bloodline that the Antichrist and False Prophet which will
eventually come.

Brother Truth?

The motto of the Theosophical Society founded by Helena P. Blavatsky, states: "There is no
religion higher than truth." In her tomes, The Secret Doctrine and Isis Unveiled, Blavatsky
remonstrated against the revealed truth of Scripture and pontificated on her version of truth
which is based in the ancient wisdom texts. This 'mother of the New Age' preached that all
ideas — whatever their source — should be tested against one's knowledge, experience, and
intuition, as if these subjective factors were reliable determinants of truth. As perceived by the
occultist, truth is God, however, as Peter Dawkins expressed in Arcadia, the occultist wallows
in his own reasonings about God rather than acknowledging the truth of Scripture: "Through
thinking man comes to understand and eventually, through thought put into action, to know
truth - to know God." (889:113) Thomas Paine stated it more succinctly: "My own mind is my
own church."

The occult version of the 'Truth' embraces the falsehood that Lucifer is God; Aleister Crowley
referred to him as "Lord God the Devil." The corollary to this fallacy is the belief that Lucifer
will defeat Jesus Christ in a final battle, when the armies of the Antichrist are arrayed against
Him and His heavenly armies. The occultist, of course, derives his understanding of the 'Truth'
from communication with Lucifer, the "father of lies," and his hosts of lying spirits. However,
Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life, not Lucifer. Truth is to be found in Scripture
alone; specifically Psalm 2 and Revelation 20, accurately foretell the outcome of the
Antichrist's battle against Jesus Christ.

Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas state in The Second Messiah concerning Roslyn Chapel
in Scotland, "when Rosslyn is excavated the truth will conquer all." These Masonic authors
claim to have "uncovered the origins of Freemasonry which showed how modern Masonic
rituals developed from those once used by the Jerusalem Church and later developed by the
famous Crusader Order of the Knights Templar." Knight and Lomas further suggest that the
high priests of the Jerusalem Church assumed the names of the major angels—7 angels to be
exact.

"The twenty-eighth degree of the 'Knight of the Sun' claims that it is the Key of
Masonry... The degree describes all the Masonic symbols, and the overall purpose
is given as the inculcation of truth. A lecture on truth is delivered in sections by
nine officers who are called Thrice Perfect Father Adam, Brother Truth, Michael,
Gabrielle, Raphael, Zaphriel, Camael, Azrael and Uriel. Over the entrance to the
chamber where the degree is conferred is written: 'Ye who have not the power to
subdue passion, flee from this place of truth'.
"The last seven names used in this degree are those of the major angels. The
Frenchman who told the story of the two schools of Jerusalem at the time of Jesus
said that the high priests of Yahweh used these names for themselves. Perhaps as
the new high priesthood of Yahweh, the Knights Templar also took these names.
"...The emphasis on 'truth' brought back to mind the sole inscription in Rosslyn
[Chapel] that reads: '...truth will conquer all'." (96:14)

These nine officers of Masonry were probably intended to correspond to the original nine
knights of the Order of the Temple, who also prefigure the Council of Nine which will rule the
New World Order: the Antichrist, False Prophet and seven planetary angels. When he comes to
power, the Antichrist will be known as the Third Adam (the first and second Adam being the
heavenly Adam-Kadmon and fallen, earthly Adam respectively). Second in command, the False
Prophet, will be affectionately called Brother Truth, and will be a religious figure who interprets
the Law. Significantly, members of monastic orders refer to each other as 'Brother'. Kallistos
Ware, a Greek Orthodox monk whose surname means 'Truth' fits the bill for this office of False
Prophet.

According to The Hiram Key: Pharaohs, Freemasons and Discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls,
"God...will save his people by the hands of two messianic figures who arise at the end of time;
one from 'Branch of David', and the other 'The Interpreter of the Law'." (162:201) These two
figures answer to the Antichrist and False Prophet who will pose as the saviors of Israel and the
world. We have demonstrated that the most likely candidate for Antichrist, Thomas Plantard de
Saint Claire, will present himself as the 'Branch'. As the right hand man of the Antichrist, the
False Prophet will function as the high priest who interprets the laws of his pagan religious
system.

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a
lamb, and he spake as a dragon. - Rev. 13:11

The Biblical reference to the False Prophet having 'two horns like a lamb' may refer to Bishop
Kallistos Ware's leadership in both the Anglican and Eastern Orthodox churches, both apostate
forms of the true Christian faith. 'He spake as a dragon' would refer to the False Prophet's
forms of the true Christian faith. 'He spake as a dragon' would refer to the False Prophet's
descent from the Dragon race, the Merovingian bloodline.

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth
and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was
healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from
heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth
by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast;
saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast,
which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto
the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that
as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he
causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in
their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he
that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is
wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the
number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. - Rev. 13:11-
18

Subordinate to the Antichrist (Father Adam) and the False Prophet (Brother Truth) will be a
counterfeit Michael the Archangel who presides over the seven planetary angels, who will be
the seven kings who rule under the Antichrist. In ancient Egypt, "...Hermes Trismegestus taught
the idea of the seven governors of the world, planetary angels..." (350:115)

"...the Gnostics derived some of their lore from the stellar religion practiced by the
Chaldean astrologers. They adopted the seven planetary spirits or gods...
represented by the classical gods of Roman and Greek mythology—Mercury
(Hermes), Venus (Aphrodite), Mars (Aries), Jupiter (Zeus), Saturn (Chronos), Sol
and Luna. In Gnostic belief these gods were transformed into archangels who
became the central focus of medieval magic and the Hermetic tradition." (25:24)

J.R.R. Tolkein's Trilogy, The Lord of the Rings, presages this angelic Council of Nine which
will rule the world. Note in the following statement which appears in Laurence Gardner's Realm
of the Ring Lords, that the Lord of the Rings is the Sun-god, and that this person corresponds to
the Beast that rises out of the cosmic sea in Rev.13:1, aka the Antichrist. Next in position was
the planetary god of the Earth, corresponding to the "Beast that rises out of the earth" - And I
beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he
spake as a dragon. (Rev. 13:11)

"In Ring Lore...[he] who held the Ninth Ring, the One Ring was Lord of the Rings.
In ancient times, the One Ring was representative of the overlordship of the Sun,
with the other key Eight Rings representing the planetary kingdoms of Earth,
Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Mercury." (722:271 ff.6)

Nicholas de Vere, Sovereign Grand Master of the Dragon Court, informs us that the surname
'Vere' means vampire which means overlord, and that both derive from the Sanskrit word,
Aryan, which means Lord:

"If spelt literally vampire would be uavber, uauber, or uaupir , which is the central
European oupire or oupere. These variants stem from the Sanskrit upari (Up-Ari or
Up-Arya, meaning Over-Lord)... Over (ME-ouere) began a graphic variant of uuere
which translates into the dynastic name Vere with the Latin V being
 which translates into the dynastic name Vere with the Latin V being
interchangeable with the double U for hard Germanic W which became V—
rendering Ver or Were." (353:4)

There is in fact, at present, an earthly Council of Nine in France which appears to be headed by
the Prieuré de Sion. The reader will recall that the Prieuré de Sion is located in Paris. A
prominent occultist of the early twentieth century, R. Swinburne Clymer who directed the the
oldest Rosicrucian body in the U.S.—the Fraternitas Rosae Crucis—claimed that his
organization was directed by a Council of Nine in France. Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince
reprint the Council of Nine's directive in The Stargate Conspiracy:

"Clymer claimed that the doctrines of his society were endorsed by a secret
order that directed it from France—called the Council of Nine. He published a
letter from them in 1932, which proclaimed: 'This is the New Dispensation, and the
work of the Spiritual and Mystical Fraternities must be reestablished around the
world, so that all peoples may be taught the Law and thereby enabled to apply it
towards universal improvement as the only means of saving mankind... We, the
Council of Nine, have selected your organization, as one of the oldest in America
to help to this work.'
"This letter was signed by the excessively immodest 'Comte M. de St Vincent,
Premier Plenipotentiary of the Council of Nine of the Confraternities of the
World.'... Another title of the Council of Nine, according to Clymer, was the 'Secret
School'." (268:288)

CALLISTO, THE GREAT BEAR

"Like Ursa Minor, Ursa Major is neither a dipper or a bear. Rather it is the greater
sheepfold, as pictured in the most ancient planispheres or zodiacs of the various
nations... "Other stars in Ursa Major are El Alcola, 'The Sheepfold'; Cab'd al Asad,
'Multitude of the Assembled'; El Kaprah, 'The Protected,' or in Hebrew 'The
Redeemed' or 'Ransomed.' A more familiar star, Callisto, again means 'The
Sheepfold.'..." (D. James Kennedy) (872:114)

Not only does Bishop Ware fit the description of 'Brother Truth,' his assumed name upon
entrance to monastic life is 'Kallistos', the Greek form of the Roman Callisto, which is the Great
Bear/Ursa Major constellation.

CALLISTO (2) f Roman Mythology

Roman form of KALLISTO. A moon of Jupiter bears this name. (664)

KALLISTO f Greek Mythology, Ancient Greek

Derived from Greek kallistos meaning "most
beautiful". In Greek mythology Kallisto was a
nymph who was loved by Zeus. She was changed
into a she-bear by Hera, and subsequently became
the Great Bear constellation. This was also an
ancient Greek personal name. (665)

Teachers of the false 'gospel in the stars', have misled their readers that Callisto, one of the stars
in Ursa Major, means "Sheepfold." However, this star was named after a Roman lesbian
goddess, Callisto, whose name means "most beautiful".
 Callisto - “Most beautiful; a title of Artemis as totemic She-Bear and mother of
Arcas, the Little Bear.” (Greek Myth) / kallistos (663)

In Greek mythology, Callisto was the daughter of King Lycaon II and a nymph of Artemis, the
Roman Diana, to whom she made a vow of chastity. Callisto, however, was seduced by Jupiter
(the Roman Zeus) and turned into a bear, either by Zeus, Hera or Diana, depending on which
version is read.

"In Greek mythology Callisto, daughter of King Lycaon (wolf), was chosen as a
young child to be one of Artemis's companions. Now Artemis was Apollo's sister,
patroness of childbirth and protector of babies and of suckling animals. The one
thing she prized above all was her chastity; she even asked Zeus for eternal
virginity, which he granted.
"Artemis gathered about her a number of young nymphs. Reflecting her own
vows of chastity, she also required complete fidelity from these young women
(girls actually, who would grow into womanhood). One of these was Callisto.
"Zeus had the habit of seducing young maidens, and eventually he got around to
Callisto. When Artemis discovered that Callisto was pregnant, she took her
revenge. Artemis loved to hunt; she would take her revenge in the chase. So she
changed Callisto into a bear...
"So Artemis's plan was to have Callisto, as a bear, hunted down and killed. But
Zeus took pity, and sent Callisto to the heavens, keeping the same form of a bear.
Her son Arcas would grow up to be the ancestral founder of the Arcadians, before
he too joined his mother in the heavens as Ursa Minor." (666)

Zeus/Jupiter, the son of Saturn/Chronos, was the king of Atlantis whose offspring with Callisto
was Arcas, the founder of the Greek Arcadia, ancient home of the Merovingians. The term
lycanthropy derives from the mythical King of Arcadia, Lycaon, whom Zeus turned into a wolf
for performing child sacrificing with his fifty sons. Recall that Danaus, who had fifty daughters,
was made king of Argos after Apollo (twin brother of Artemis), disguised himself as a wolf and
terrorized the inhabitants of this city.

"Occultly," wrote Blavatsky, "lycanthropy means the same as 'were-wolf', the psychological
faculty of certain sorcerers to appear as wolves." (316:193-4) It was in ancient Greece that the
cult of the werewolf originated. In his book, The Sirius Mystery, Robert Temple associates the
wolf with the Dog Star Sirius, where the gods reside, and fifty daughters or sons in Greco-
Egyptian mythology with fifty celestial thrones orbiting Sirius:

"The element of the wolf, sometimes substituted for a dog in the Sirius tradition of
the Dog Star, is important. It is an obvious European substitute for the non-existent
jackal of Anubis. It was from this changing of the jackal into the wolf through
adaptation to the European clime that those peculiar wolf traditions arose in Arcadia
which developed in pre-classical times into the werewolf concepts. Human blood-
sucking vampires,...and lycanthropy of werewolves all luxuriated in the wilds of
Arcady among the Pelasgian survivors in pre-classical Greece after the Dorian
invasion... What is a werewolf? It is a man's body with a wolf's head.... And the
temples of Wolfish (or Lycian) Apollo, were not altogether rare in Greece. Aristotle's
famous school of Athens, the Lyceum, was in the grounds of the Lycian Apollo's
temple just outside the Athens Gate of Diochares...
"...what was really meant to be significant about Danaos's progeny was not their sex
but their number of fifty. And from Pindar we see that they were on fifty thrones. The
fact that Aegyptos of Egypt had fifty sons as well and that Danaos's daughters...taught
 fact that Aegyptos of Egypt had fifty sons as well and that Danaos's daughters...taught
the Egyptian mysteries to the Greeks all indicates that what transpired was a
transplanting from Egypt to Greece of the all-important tradition to be common to
both countries from then on--the fifty linked with the Dog Star Sirius and as celestial
thrones. In other words, the mystery of the orbit of Sirius B around Sirius A in its fifty
celestial steps." (942:167-169)

Kenneth Grant, Grand Master of the Ordo Templis Orientalis (OTO), wrote of the Merovingians'
affinity for the goddess Diana: "According to Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, the authors of The
Templar Revelation, '...the Merovingian kings, from their founder Merovee to Clovis (who
converted to Christianity in 496) were 'pagan kings of the cult of Diana'.' Picknett and Prince got
this information from the Dossiers Secrets of the Priory of Sion." (571) To Diana, the huntress and
goddess of wild places, all animals were sacred; for this reason, Diana is sometimes artistically
portrayed running with wolves.

It is noteworthy that Convents of the Prieuré de Sion for selection of Grand Master are always held
in the wolf-month, which is January: "The Anglo-Saxons called [January] the wulfmonath, the
wolf month, and many European sightings of 'werewolves' take place during this season." (668)
Robert Graves stated in The White Goddess that January is named after the bisexual god
Janus/Jana, who is also Dianus or Diana. "...Janus was really the oak-god Dianus who was
incarnate in the King of Rome..." - (406:69)

Recall that Janus/Dianus is the also Roman variant of 'John/Jean', the esoteric name of the Grand
Masters of the Prieuré de Sion. Janus is also an hermaphrodite, i.e., male-female: "In the
Saturnalia, Macrobius says that January is dedicated to Janus as December is dedicated to Saturn,
and so Janus is the new god who reigns at the end of the Saturnalia. He also says that Janus is two-
faced because he is a fusion of Artemis and Apollo (i.e., Sun and Moon, Janus and Jana = Dianus
and Diana); thus he corresponds to the alchemical hermaphrodite..." (983)

Diana required of her band of nymphs a vow of chastity; as related in Ovid's Fasti: “Among the
Hamadryads(2) in the train of the archeress Diana one of the sacred band was Callisto. Laying her
hand on the bow of the goddess, 'Thou bow,' quoth she, 'which thus I touch, bear witness to my
virginity.' Cynthia approved the vow, and said, 'Keep but thy plighted troth(3) and thou shalt be the
foremost of my company.'” (916)

Callisto's chastity may have had little or nothing to do with sexual purity. There is a common
perception among neo-pagans that the goddess Diana's loyal band were lesbians. In the lesbian
subculture, virginity means strict avoidance of sexual relations with men only. It also seems to
have been true in ancient Greece that the rule of "chastity" did not apply to relations between
women, since ancient Greek society was male-centered.

Callisto is also the name of one of Jupiter's 4 major moons. The other three, Ganymede, Io and
Europa, are named after deities associated with the Grail legend. As moons of Jupiter, Callisto and
Ganymede, are considered fraternal twins although this relationship does not hold true in
mythology.

"Galileo's orbital tour of Jupiter's 16 moons, focusing on the four majors - Io, the most
volcanically-active body known; frozen Ganymede, largest moon in the Solar System
with a surface temperature of minus 150 degrees; Callisto, Ganymede's crater-scarred
twin; and Europa, icy world with a possible sub-surface ocean that may contain extra-
terrestrial life. Jupiter and its moons are a mini solar system." (667)
According to J.R. Church, Ganymede was a descendant of Dardanus, the founder of Troy, the
ancient home of the Merovingians. The king of the gods, Zeus, appointed Ganymede to be
cupbearer to the gods and, for his service, granted him immortality. Ganymede is therefore
regarded as keeper of the Grail:

"According to the ancient Greek treatise, THE ILIAD, by Homer, the founder of
Troy was named Dar-dan-us. The name is strikingly familiar. It contains the name of
Dan! It was said that Dardanus was the son of Zeus. Dardanus had a son named
Erichthonius, who had a son named Tros, who was the namesake of the ancient
Trojans and of their capital city, Troy.
"Tros had three sons, Ilus, Ganymede, and Assaracus. Priam, the reigning king of
the Trojans, was of the line of Ilus. Aeneas, founder of the Roman Empire, as a prince
of the royal house of Assaracus. Ganymede was the great-grandson of Dardanus, the
founder of Troy. According to Homer's ILIAD (Book V), 4. Zeus kidnapped the
prince, Ganymede. Zeus wanted Ganymede to be a special cup-bearer to the gods
(which may be a clue to the origin of the legend of the so-called Holy Grail).
"The ILIAD does not relate how Zeus carried off Ganymede, but there is an ancient
Roman mosaic showing Ganymede, the Trojan prince, being carried off by Zeus, who
had taken the form of an eagle! Here is a possible clue to connect the progenitors of
the ancient Trojans with the tribe of Dan, who had adopted the eagle as their insignia."
(127:103)

Jupiter's moon, Io, was, in ancient mythology, one of the three main ancestors of all royal
houses. Io was the ancestor of Danaus who became king of Argos. A native of Argos, Io was
seduced by Zeus and turned into a cow by his jealous wife, Hera. Io wandered to Egypt where
she gave birth to Epaphus 1 who became king of Egypt and father of Libya. Io's descendants
were Agenor 1, Belus 1, the father of Danaus, and Lelex 2.

"In the Psalter of Cashel it states that: 'The Tuatha de Danaan ruled in Ireland for
about two centuries, and were highly skilled in architecture and other arts from
their long residence in Greece'. The Tuatha de Danaan were the descendants of
Danaus, the son of Belus, who went with his fifty daughters to Argos, the home of
his ancestrous Io. In Irish legends the Tuatha de Danaan, who were considered to
be demigods,...were said to have possessed a...Grail-like vessel... These teachers of
Wisdom...were the founders of the Druidic priesthood." (258:142)

Another major moon of the Jovian system, Europa, was, in Greek mythology, kidnapped by
Zeus, and was never found. Europa was fathered by Agenor, the grandson of Io and uncle of
Danaus, the king of Argos.

"Agenor 1 was by birth an Egyptian, but he departed to Phoenicia and reigned

there. According to some Agenor 1 is the son of Poseidon and Libya, but others
affirm that his parents were Belus 1 and Anchinoe.
"King Belus 1 of Egypt was son of Poseidon and Libya, and was also the father
of Aegyptus 1 and Danaus 1... His mother Libya was, in turn, daughter of Epaphus
1 and Memphis 2. And King Epaphus 1 of Egypt, from whom sprang the Libyans
and the Ethiopians, was the founder of the city of Memphis in Egypt and the son of
Zeus and Io, the girl who was once turned into a cow, but who is one of the Three
Main Ancestors." (993)
The naming of Europe after this Phoenician princess, who originated in Greece and fled to
Egypt, indicates the extraordinary influence of Greek culture on the continent of Europe---her
literature, music, sculpture, painting and other applied arts. The famous English Romantic poet,
Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) wrote: "We are all Greeks. Our laws, our literature, our
religion, our arts, have their root in Greece." Like many poets of his day, Shelley employed
mythological themes and figures from Greek poetry to challenge Christian values.

Thus, the names 'Ware/Vere' and 'Kallisto/Great Bear' betray an association with the
Merovingian bloodline as symbolized by the Plantard family crest, which features twin bears
representing the Great Bear and Little Bear constellations, Ursa Major/Ursa Minor. The crest, as
esoterically interpreted by Kenneth Grant, symbolizes the Typhonian/Draconian bloodline of the
Merovingians:

"In his book Outer Gateways

Kenneth Grant writes: 'In The
Holy Blood and The Holy Grail,
the authors reproduce the family
crest of Clan Plantard, the
contemporary representative of
which was, until recently, the
Grand Master of the Prieure de
Sion, an Order which, according
to Lincoln, dominated the Order
of the Knights Templar and
various other highly influential
institutions which, at certain
periods of history, included the
Vatican. The crest which supplies
the key to the Current represented
by the Merovingian bloodline and
the Order of Sion, comprises the
symbols of the Typhonian line of
descent: the two bears, eleven
bees, and the fleur de lys... The
two bears denote the Mother
(Typhon) and her son (Set)...
"In the Typhonian Tradition the
Bear is the constellation of Ursa
Major. The stars must be aligned
in a specific way in order for Set
to be properly invoked. To the
Priory of Sion (the secret, occult
organization dedicated to
preserving the Merovingian
Bloodline), the Bear was an
animal of the Goddess Diana.
According to Lynn Picknett and
Clive Prince, the authors of The
Templar Revelation, '...the
Merovingian kings, from their
founder Merovee to Clovis (who
converted to Christianity in 496)
 converted to Christianity in 496)
were 'pagan kings of the cult of
Diana'.' Picknett and Prince got
this information from the
Dossiers Secrets of the Priory of
Sion." - (571)

MICHAEL THE COUNTERFEIT ARCHANGEL

THE MEROVINGIAN DYNASTY:

SATANIC BLOODLINE OF THE ANTICHRIST

NOTES:

REVIEW of MISSING FROM ACTION: A Powerful Historical Response to the Crisis among
American Men

If you peeked at the Appendix at the back of the book, it may not come as a surprise that
Weldon Hardenbrook is "Father" (Archpriest) John Weldon Hardenbrook. Fr. John oversees
Saints Peter and Paul Church, Ben Lomond, California. His church is affiliated with the
Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, one of many denominational
expressions of Eastern Orthodoxy in the United States. Weldon Hardenbrook was ordained in
the Orthodox church back in the early 1970s.

In short, his "cure" for the feminized American male as well as the curse of matriarchy is the
re-establishment of patriarchy in both family and church.

Patriarchy is the biblical and traditional blueprint for family life. The American
home has no chance for survival without it. p. 216

While we generally don’t disagree, it would seem the authors are either unable or unwilling to
differentiate between different forms of patriarchy; nor do they seem to acknowledge the
negative side-effects of some historical and contemporary expressions of male authority. For
Frs. Hardenbrook and Somerville, a biblical patriarchy will only be found in a revival of
sacramental, ascetic, ecclesiastical religion -- namely the extension of Eastern Orthodoxy.
Much of the last part of the book is an apologetic, an evangelistic introduction into the tenets of
his "evangelical" brand of Eastern Orthodoxy. We believe this approach falls far short of the
need of the hour – in fact, any hour. [Update 12/6/98. Hardenbrook, Somerville, and 18 other
men were deposed, defrocked, and excommunicated by their Antiochian Orthodox
denominational machinery during the summer of 1998 for being a "schismatic group."]

Shown below are our brief comments on Chapters 4, 5 & 6:

CHAPTER 4 - In an effort to explain how the process of feminization began, the authors begin
with colonial America. They notably point out that theology historically has been "a manly
topic," that colonial men reveled in theology, and that early America enjoyed a "patriarchal
model of family structure." While husbands and wives were considered equals, each had a role
which contributed to the overall well-being of the family and each other. The authors further
assess the condition of 17th century women, the relationship between fathers and sons, and
early colonial courtship. Not until we arrive at their discussion of "Extended Families" did we
detect a proverbial 'fly in the ointment'. The authors finish this chapter with a eulogy to the
detect a proverbial 'fly in the ointment'. The authors finish this chapter with a eulogy to the
old-world clan system of family. In a typical clan, absolute authority is vested in a senior
family member. While one may be able to identify the existence of clans in ancient Jewish
culture, this 'umbrella-type' organizational structure is contrary to Christian teaching. Pastor
Ray R. Sutton makes these observations in this book That You May Prosper:

When Christianity began its trek across this barbaric part of the world [medieval
Europe], there was a constant "Hatfield vs. McCoy" type of feuding. The family
had absolute power to convict and even execute its own members. The [Protestant]
Church broke down the clans through its court system. It argued that the father
does not have absolute authority. The 'check and balance' on his power is the court
of the Church.

Clans... simply transfer to the father [patriarch] the kind of authority which the
Roman Catholic Church officially invests in the Pope. A father [patriarch]
becomes a final court of earthly appeal, one who can veto a marriage. This is
radically anti-Biblical.

While we are fully in favor of Spirit-authored patriarchy and the biblical 'extended family;' we
seek to warn the reader of the dangers of clanism, both past and present. We have personally
witnessed and experienced its horrible effects.

CHAPTER 5 - The authors continue their diagnosis with a look into America's "spirit of
independence." However, their understanding of American history will strike most well-read
American Christians as rather strange. They erroneously assert that America's break with
England and "political liberty in the colonies" spawned a "distinctly novel American anomaly,
the independent church." Have the authors' affiliation with Eastern Orthodoxy blinded them to
the centuries-old abuse and corruption of religious bureaucracies -- the State Church? Are they
unaware or have they forgotten the histories of the European independents such as the original
Protestants, Puritan/Congregational Independency, Anabaptists, Waldensians, Baptists, and
Brethren? Do they accord no cause/effect to the widespread secular influence of the
Renaissance and the 18th century Enlightenment which affirmed, in the words of historian
Thomas Langford, "the radical independence and competent rationality of human beings"?
Since it appears to be these authors' goal to establish themselves within the "true" Church,
readers should be forewarned of their subtle and not-so-subtle efforts to discredit the entire
Western tradition of Christianity...

Why Eastern Orthodoxy?

Similar to Messrs. Peter Gillquist, Jon Braun, Dick Ballew, and Jack Sparks, Weldon
Hardenbrook was a 1960’s refugee out of the ecumenical/Arminian para-church organization,
Campus Crusade for Christ, International (CCCI). See his comments on page 221. Due to the
serious theological errors of CCCI, particularly in the realm of the Christian life and spiritual
maturity, these men suffered a "great deal of frustration and disillusionment." Campus Crusade,
under the leadership of Dr. William ("Bill") Bright, has erroneously taught a form of "instant
spirituality" which is said to result from their rote "by faith filling with the Spirit." This
concept is built on a misinterpretation of Ephesians 5:18.

It was the bitter experience of repetitive failure (sin syndrome) that drove these men to abandon
CCCI and then even turn their backs on the entire Protestant realm. All of the leaders
mentioned above, including Franky Schaeffer – son of the well-known Dr. Francis A.
Schaeffer, became clerics in the Eastern Orthodox Church. In the early 1970s shortly before
 Schaeffer, became clerics in the Eastern Orthodox Church. In the early 1970s shortly before
their departure, Miles Stanford wrote:

…there are those whose disillusionment has driven them into error. For example,
we think of several leaders who are no longer with Campus Crusade, namely, John
Braun, Peter Gillquist and Hal Lindsey. True to CCCI principles, these highly
talented young men were dependent upon confession of sins for the filling with the
Spirit and the expected spirituality. Lack of results resulted in total disillusionment.

Their understandable reaction caused them to go to the opposite extreme, to do

away with confession of sins. They reasoned that since their sins were already
forgiven, why confess them? Instead, just thank God and continue on. Mainly due
to this [erroneous] teaching as set forth in Gillquist’s book LOVE IS NOW, many
have been turned aside from the privilege and responsibility of confessing their
sins, thus seriously damaging their fellowship with the Father, and with his Son,

3. JOHN CHRYSOSTOM (347-407) cohort of Chrysostom - monk from Alexandria?

Among Diodorus' students at the School of Antioch were John Chrysostom and Theodore of
Mopsuestia. The various encyclopedias agree that Chrysostom's view of sin was unscriptural:

"[Chrysostom's] conception of the Divine image in man, which he regards as

consisting in his dominion over creation recalls Diodorus and Theodore. He regards
the Fall as resulting in a privation of gifts which were not a part of man's natural
constitution. He does not teach a complete loss of the Divine image. He agrees with
Theodore in insisting on free will and denying original sin... He denies that
mortality is the cause of sin." 37.

"[Chrysostom] expressly controverts the view...that sin is an integral part of our

nature." 38.

The Chrysostom Society is a group of neo-gnostics founded and led by Richard Foster.
Members include Madeline L'Engle of the New Age St. John the Divine Cathedral in New
York, Karen Mains, Eugene Peterson, author of The Message, and similar false prophets who
have sought to mainstream the esoteric as Christianity. Foster noted Chrysostom's agreement
with the theology of the famous Gnostic of the School of Alexandria: "In his later life,
Chrysostom was much maligned for his agreement with much of Origen's theology..." 39.

"The Star of Arcady either referred to Arcadia, the earthly home of Kallisto, or to Arcas, her
son..." 927:456

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a BEAR, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as
it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto
the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is
able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great
 able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great
things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two
months. - Rev. 13:1-5

PART VII
MICHAEL THE COUNTERFEIT ARCHANGEL

"That religion they call Christianity; the devil they honour they call God...
it is their God and their religion that I hate and will destroy."
—Aleister Crowley, The World's Tragedy

On the grounds of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City there stands a large
sculpture of Michael the Archangel slaying the Dragon. As the photos above and below reveal, at
the base of the sculpture, under the Dragon which is being slain by the Archangel, there are two
other strange figures, one of the Sun-god and the other, a Crab. Your average sightseer would not
recognize the Zodiacal sign of Cancer, which is the Crab, or appreciate its occult meaning.
However, the esoteric message of this dramatic scene is one which the occult underground
understands very well. It is that of a long-awaited moment of revenge. This epic event will take
place when a counterfeit Archangel Michael destroys a scapegoat Dragon—the Roman Catholic
Church and Pope—in the sign of Cancer. The Sun-god and Crab positioned underneath the
Archangel mean, in astrological terms, the Sun in Cancer, i.e. that the sun will be moving through
the sign of Cancer when this watershed event occurs.
Merovingians attach great importance to the Dead Sea Scrolls which prophesy that Michael the
Archangel as "The Heavenly Prince Melchizedek.", will preside over the final judgment of Satan,
in fulfillment of Revelation 12:7: And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought
against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels.

"The heavenly deliverer is Melchizedek. Identical with the Archangel Michael, he

is head of the 'Sons of Heaven,' or 'God's of Justice' and is referred to as Elohim
and 'el'... Here Melchizedek is portrayed as presiding over the final judgment and
condemnation of his demonic counterpart Belial/ Satan, the Prince of Darkness...
The great act of deliverance is expected to occur on the Day of Atonement at the
end of the tenth Jubilee cycle." (121:300)

In the first place, the identification of Michael the Archangel with Melchizedek and Elohim
resembles the false belief of the Jehovah's Witnesses that that Jesus did not always exist, but was a
created being originally named Michael the Archangel. This heretical teaching automatically
classifies the above prophecy as a counterfeit fulfillment of Revelation 12. Although Scripture
identifies the dragon in Rev. 12:9 as Satan: "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent,
called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world..." the Merovingians have cast the
Roman Church as the great Dragon:

"It is of importance to note that the X sign, which became so hated by the Roman
Church, was identified with the archangel Michael (Melchizedek) onwards from
Old Testament times. The heritage of St Michael was the dynasty of high Zadok
priests — a heritage that prevailed in the continuing Messianic line... Fragments of
the Prince Melchizedek Document found among the Dead Sea Scrolls indicate that
Melchizedek and Michael were one and the same. It is this representation which
 Melchizedek and Michael were one and the same. It is this representation which
features in the Revelation when the Archangel Michael (the descending Zadokite
power of the Messiah) fights with the Roman Dragon of oppression…"
(29:299,177)

The motive behind portraying the Roman Church as the Dragon is vengeance for the overthrow of
the Merovingian dynasty during the Middle Ages and subsequent persecutions of the Knights
Templar and related heretical sects. The Donation of Constantine was created expressly to
overthrow the Merovingian dynasty and to elevate the authority of the Roman Catholic Pope over
secular kings. The arrest of the Knights Templar is described by Michael Howard in Occult
Conspiracy:

"Phillip IV passed the [incriminating evidence] on to Pope Clement V and the king
and the pontiff conspired to lure the Grand Master of the Order, Jacques de Molay,
into a trap on French soil... In reality the wily king was plotting the downfall of the
Templars and the death of de Molay. The knights were staying at the Templar citadel
in Paris and on 13 October 1307 the king executed his plan. Troops surrounded the
building and everyone inside was placed under arrest. Within forty-eight hours
warrants had been issued ordering the detaining of every Templar in France, even
though this was technically illegal as the Order was answerable only to the Pope and
not to civil laws. On 22 November however, the Pope issued a bull to all the Christian
rulers in Western Europe ordering them to arrest any member of the Order residing in
their countries. The fate of the Templars was sealed." - (25:35,36)

In Realm of the Ring Lords, Sir Laurence Gardner described the Albigensian Crusade conducted by
the Vatican to eradicate the Cathar heresy in the South of France.

"In the Cathar language of old Provence, a female elf was an albi (elbe or ylbi), and
Albi was the name given to the main Cathar centre in Languedoc. This was in
deference to the matrilinear heritage of the Grail dynasty, for the Cathars were
supporters of the original Albi-gens - the Elven Bloodline which had descended
through the Dragon Queens of yore, such as Lilith, Miriam, Bathsheba and Mary
Magdalene. It was for this reason that, when Simon de Montfort and the armies of
Pope Innocent III descended upon the region in 1209, it was called the Albigensian
Crusade. Through some 35 years, tens of thousands of innocent people were
slaughtered in this brutal campaign - all because the inhabitants of the region were
champions of the original concept of Grail kingship, as against the pseudo-style of
monarchy which had been implemented by the papal machine..." (248:1)

The French Cathar name Albi-gens means Elven bloodline, according to Prince Nicholas de Vere,
Sovereign Grand Master of the Imperial and Royal Dragon Court & Order.

"The real 'gentry' or to give them another familiar epithet - the Lords and Ladies -
were...by blood alone, the members of a genetic strain, the Dragon and Grail
families - the Fairy Blood. One could not and cannot 'become' a member of the
gentry any more than one can 'become', by initiation or otherwise, a 'witch', a
'vampire', a 'magus', a 'dragon', a 'fairy' or an 'elf'. All these are names which
described the 'gentry' and the latter - elf - is a word which originates from albi
meaning a white or 'shining one'. From albi derives the French Cathar name
Albigensian (Albi + Gens) meaning - 'of the elven blood' - et quid erat
demonstrandum." (353:4)

Curiously, Fundamentalist and Evangelical leaders often refer to the Albigensians as the true
Christians of the Middle Ages who preserved the Word of God while under severe persecution by
the Catholic Church. For example, David Cloud, who denounces the Roman Catholic Church and
the Catholic Church. For example, David Cloud, who denounces the Roman Catholic Church and
the Pope as the Antichrist, glorifies the Albigensian cult in his book, Rome and the Bible:

"The persecutions which were poured out upon these Bible-believing people beginning
in the 7th century caused them to be scattered throughout Europe, everywhere carrying
with them the New Testament faith. The Lutheran historian Mosheim, writing in the
17th century, says:...They were later known by many names, including Paterini,
Cathari, Bulgarians, Patarins, Gazarians, Turlupins, Runcarians, and Albigenses... The
term 'Albigenses' probably derived from a Council which was held in the year 1176 at
the town of Lombers near Albi, 'for the purpose of examining certain reputed
heretics'." (789:34)

See: The Albigenses and Cathari

What is going on here? Any encyclopedia or objective history will document that the Albigensians
were a sect of the Cathar movement which was heretical in the extreme. The following entry from
Collier's Encyclopedia is representative of other sources:

“The Albigenses followed Manichean dualism in its attempt to solve the

problem of evil. They asserted the co-existence of two ultimate principles, a good
deity (the God of the New Testament) who created Spirit and Light and a bad deity
(the God of the Old Testament) who created Matter and Darkness. Accordingly
they condemned marriage and the procreation of children as demoniac. Yet
concubinage was tolerated…and desertion of husband or wife was…praiseworthy.
Like the Arians, the Albigenses claimed that Christ was merely a created being,
who never really took on a human body, and never actually died on the cross… His
redemption gave us only the example of a noble life and a moral lesson of his
virtue. It did not achieve an objective remission of sin. Believing in
metapsychosis, or transmigration of souls, they forbade the use of flesh meat and
milk or other animal produce. Rejecting the authority of the Church and State, they
appealed to the Scriptures, mostly the New Testament because the Old Law was
regarded as mainly a demoniac creation. The taking of oaths, war, and capital
punishment were forbidden.
“The Albigenses distinguished between the 'perfect' and mere believers. The
former, a small minority, were held to the observances of the ancient Cathari: the
consolamentum or spirit baptism through the imposition of hands, which gave the
right to preach the new religion, the appareillamentum, or public confession of sins
and endura or starvation to death in order to be freed from the flesh…
“While exact figures are not available, it is certain that more than one thousand
cities and towns in France were influenced by Albigensianism at the close of the
12th century… Always the Cathari were denounced, not only for doctrinal heresy,
but as a menace to the family, state and human society.
“…Their only requirement was faith; for the rest they were allowed to do as
they pleased.” (990)

There are also connections between the Albigensian Cathars and the Grail cult, which also
flourished in the south of France. This connection is mentioned in Bloodline of the Holy Grail:

"Elusive though it is, there does seem to be some link between the Cathars and the
whole cult of the Grail as it evolved during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. A
number of writers have argued that the Grail romances - those of Chretien de
Troyes and Wolfram von Eschenbach, for example - are an interpolation of Cathar
thought...Something had been smuggled out of Montsegur just after the truce
expired. According to tradition the four men who escaped from the doomed citadel
carried with them the Cathar treasure, but the monetary treasure had been smuggled
 carried with them the Cathar treasure, but the monetary treasure had been smuggled
out three months earlier. Could the Cathar 'treasure', like the 'treasure' Sauniere
discovered, have consisted primarily of a secret? Could that secret have been
related in some unimaginable way to something that became known as the Holy
Grail?" (29:51-2,61-2)

Can it also be that modern day Cathars are behind the movement to portray the Albigensians as
Christian and the Catholic Church as the Dragon/Antichrist/ False Prophet? After their demise, the
Merovingians determined to overthrow the Catholic Church and aspired to repossess the thrones of
Europe. To this end, Jewish Cabalists and other occult sects infiltrated the Catholic Church during
the Middle Ages with the intention of subverting it from within. In recent times also, many of the
popes have been agents of Judeo-Freemasonry. To accomplish the final overthrow of the Roman
Church, the occult societies have launched a campaign within Christianity to misrepresent the next
pope as the Antichrist or False Prophet. The Catholic Church will be tried, in all probability at the
World Court in Geneva, Switzerland (home of John Calvin), for crimes against the gnostic sects
during the Inquisition.

The Pope and Catholic Church will be overthrown by a counterfeit Michael the Archangel under
the sign of Cancer which is most likely to occur around the mid-point of the Tribulation Period.
Rome will be burned and the Pope will be beheaded as the Dragon—or the Antichrist or False
Prophet, depending on the audience targeted for this Merovingian propaganda. This event will be a
counterfeit fulfillment of Daniel 12:1 and Rev. 12:7 and the actual fulfillment of Revelation 17
and 18—the destruction of Mystery Babylon the Great. A Merovingian Pope will then become the
patriarch of a new Esoteric Church.

In essence, the confrontation between the counterfeit Archangel Michael and the Roman Church
represents the culmination of the long war between the Gnostic heresy and Christian doctrine.
From the holocaust of the Christian faith (Luke 18:8) will rise the mythical Phoenix, the Esoteric
Church. Having destroyed the Roman Church, the bogus Dragon, this pseudo Archangel Michael
will have the audacity to fight against Jesus Christ upon His return, claiming that Jesus is Satan.
(Psalm 2)

When the counterfeit Michael the Archangel slays the counterfeit Dragon, i.e., destroys the Roman
Church, every vestige of Christian doctrine will be removed from planet Earth. Thus cleansing the
earth—by elimination of all historic creeds and remnants of traditional Christianity as inhibitors of
the Gnostic program of transformation—will make possible the release of mankind from his
bondage to matter and escape to the spiritual realms. At least, this is what the Gnostics believe will
happen.

And for this cause God shall send

them strong delusion, that they
should believe a lie:
That they all might be damned who
believed not the truth, but had
pleasure in unrighteousness. II Thess.
2:12

Who will be the counterfeit Michael the Archangel???

HRH MICHAEL STEWART OF ALBANY

Holy Blood, Holy Grail provides a listing of of Merovingian noble families, from which will
come the heir-apparent of the purported royal bloodline of Jesus deemed worthy to sit on the
throne of the kingdoms of this world. Listed alongside the Plantard and Sinclair (Saint-Claire)
bloodlines are "various branches of the Stuarts":
bloodlines are "various branches of the Stuarts":

"We cannot point to one man and assert that he is Jesus' lineal descendant. There
are at least a dozen families in Britain and Europe today -- with numerous
collateral branches - who are of Merovingian lineage. These include the houses of
Hapsburg-Lorraine (present titular dukes of Lorraine and kings of Jerusalem),
Plantard, Luxembourg, Montpezat, Montesquiou, and various others. According to
the 'Prieuré documents,' the Sinclair family in Britain is also allied to the bloodline,
as are various branches of the Stuarts..." (31:145-46)

According to Kitty Kelly's book, The Royals (p.262, the late Princess Diana was a member of
the Stuart bloodline, fifth removed from Charles II, which claims a greater nobility than the
reigning House of Windsor, which is not mentioned in the Merovingian royalty. The
contribution of the Stuart family to Freemasonry is commended in Holy Blood, Holy Grail:

"During their stay in France the Stuarts had been deeply involved in the
dissemination of Freemasonry. Indeed, they are generally regarded as the source of
the particular form of Freemasonry known as Scottish Rite. Scottish Rite
Freemasonry introduced higher degrees than those offered by other Masonic
systems at the time. It promised initiation into greater and more profound mysteries
-- mysteries supposedly preserved and handed down in Scotland. It established
more direct connections between Freemasonry and the various activities --
alchemy, Cabalism, and Hermetic thought, for instance -- that were regarded as
Rosicrucian…" 31:145-46

In Bloodline of the Holy Grail, Sir Laurence Gardner attempts to prove that the House of Stuart
still retains the legitimate right to the throne of England, possessing a living descendant of
Bonnie Prince Charlie, whom the Jacobites tried to restore to the British Throne in 1727. The
Jacobite Heritage, however, maintained that Gardner's genealogies are undocumented and
cannot be supported by historical evidence.

The foreword to Bloodline of the Holy Grail is written by a Prince Michael Stewart of Albany,
who is the Head of the Royal House of Stewart, which surname Sir Laurence maintains is
"Stuart," albeit with a different spelling. The Official Home Page of the Royal House of Stewart
provides extensive information about the aspiring Prince, who also holds the position of Head
of the European Council of Princes. The Jacobite Heritage refutes Prince Michael's claim to
fame:

"'Prince Michael' claims to be 'President of the European Council of Princes (Le

Conseil Europeen des Princes) - Un Organe Consultatif Constitutionel'. He says
that this organisation was founded in 1946 (as the International Council of
Government) with Archduke Otto of Austria as its President until 1992 (when
'Prince Michael' succeeded). He also says that the heads of all the major European
royal houses belong with the exception of the House of Windsor. [The existence of
this body before 1990 cannot be verified. Archduke Otto of Austria has never been
president of any such body, nor has the head of any major European royal house
ever been a member. The only people who might be members are people who claim
legitimate descent from long extinct houses such as Hohenstaufen (ie. charlatans).
"Prince Michael" claims to have connections with many European royal houses; he
is, however, never seen at any of their celebrations marking baptisms, marriages,
birthdays, or funerals.]

Prince Michael is thoroughly debunked as merely another pretender to the British throne on the
Fantasy Royalty web site:
 "The Royal House of Stuart became extinct in the male line with the death of
Henry (IX) Stuart, Duke of York, Cardinal of the Holy Roman Church and Bishop
of Frascati, in 1807. He had succeeded his elder brother, Charles (III) Stuart,
sometimes known as 'Bonnie Prince Charlie,' in 1788, on the latter's death without
legitimate issue (he left one illegitimate daughter, Clementina, who also died
without issue). Both were the sons of James (III), Prince of Wales, only son of
James II, King of England, Scotland, France and Ireland, (illegally) deposed as
King of England and Scotland on 10 Dec 1688, and as King of Ireland six months
later, who died in exile in 1701."

Compounding the royal intrigue was the "coincidental" release (one week after Princess Diana's
death) of an expose of the Royal Family which holds present title to the British throne, the
House of Windsor. The Royals by Kitty Kelley brazenly asserts that Queen Elizabeth II was
conceived by artificial insemination and that the Queen Mum is illegitimate. A Washington Post
review of this popular book stated:

"Among the more startling claims is that both Queen Elizabeth and her sister,
Princess Margaret, were conceived via 'manual fertilization' after their sickly father,
George VI, failed to impregnate their mother, now the Queen Mum, in the more
usual fashion. … Though the sisters were born in 1926 and 1930, respectively,
decades before artificial insemination became a widely used medical procedure,
several prominent U.S. medical specialists contacted by The Post say the story's not
implausible. 'It might have been quite possible,' says J. Benjamin Younger MD,
executive director of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine. 'But is it
true?'" (Washington Post, 9/16/97)

Although this sensational revelation is most likely not true, such propaganda may be part of the
smear campaign required to dethrone the already disgraced House of Windsor. Dare we call it
conspiracy? We know that Diana was required to give up her crown when she divorced Charles.
In his recent release, The Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland, Prince Michael claims to be the
"legal Pretender to the throne of England" (92:302), by which we infer is meant that he would
receive it by default of Prince Charles. Should Prince Charles not accede to the throne (and
there have been rumors that he would decline because of so many scandals), then Princes
William and Henry may lose the right of succession, Diana having also relinquished her crown.

Prince Michael makes the point that England does not have a constitution and therefore its
monarchy is little more than a despotic feudal system. (92:255-56) He emphasizes, however, that
Scotland has a constitution, in fact, it is the same Masonic model used by the Founding Fathers
of the United States! However, George Washington, who knew the importance of a monarchy
with a hereditary bloodline, is said to have offered the American crown to Charles III Stuart.

Although The Forgotten Monarchy of Scotland does not document its claims concerning the
founding of the American system of government, the implication is clear that the ideal form of
world government would be a constitutional monarchy under a restored Stuart monarchy. Led
by whom? Probably not the dispossessed sons of Charles should he abdicate the British throne.
And given the sudden promotion in Christian media of Prince Charles as the Antichrist, this
eventuality seems a formidable prospect.

Another development in the unfolding drama is a recent report that Israel is pursuing
membership in the British Commonwealth.

"Israel is actively considering joining the British Commonwealth, following an

'unofficial approach' to its ambassador in London from the secretary-general of the
53-member organization.
 53-member organization.
"The approach was made earlier this month in a meeting between Ambassador
Moshe Raviv and the Commonwealth’s secretary-general, Chief Emeka Anyaoku.
The move is being seen as especially significant at a time when Israeli ties with the
European Union and other international bodies have been strained over the stalled
Middle East peace process. A spokesman for the Commonwealth confirmed that a
meeting had taken place between Chief Anyaoku and Mr Raviv, but declined to
provide further details.
"The approach came in the wake of a visit to London earlier this month by
Yasser Arafat, during which the Palestinian Authority chief asked Commonwealth
officials whether a future Palestinian state could have associate membership of the
organization. ("Israel Could Join British Commonwealth, Weekend News Today, Source: MED,
Aug 25 , 1997)

What human agency may be orchestrating the rise and fall of the kingdoms of this world and
leading them to fulfill Zechariah's prophesy that Israel will become a burdensome stone for all
people? (12:3) Holy Blood, Holy Grail and Bloodline of the Holy Grail are obviously
publications of the Prieuré of Sion, the founders of the Knights Templar who were the
predecessors of the Rosicrucians and Freemasons. Masonic books are now glutting the market
to the end of bringing forth the Merovingian vision of the 'new world order' governed by a
"wise and benign spiritual figure, a priest-king" of the pedigree of Jesus Christ. The authors of
Holy Blood, Holy Grail are, however, prudent to assure the future serfs of their modern feudal
system that the lineal descendant of Jesus -

"…would not be any more divine, any more intrinsically miraculous, than the rest
of us. This attitude would undoubtedly be shared by a great many people today. We
suspect it is shared by the Prieuré de Sion as well."

On 14 January 1998 the World Council of Churches reported the formation of the European
"Church and Society Commission." The stated purpose of this commission was to help
European churches "monitor and react to developments in institutions such as the European
Union and the Council of Europe, and to deal with ethical questions facing European society."

Ethical questions will encompass: "...peace, justice and the integrity of creation, reconciliation
and relations between churches and governments...democratisation, human rights and
minorities, European security, and the environment...(and) the specific responsibility of the
churches in member states of the European Union for EU policies." (ENI News Service, 14 January
1998)

The January meeting took place in Strasbourg, the French city which houses the headquarters of
the Council of Europe, the European Court of Human Rights, and the European Parliament. It is
significant that opening this session was Jacques Stewart, who described the meeting as
"historic" and "long awaited."

The Stewart family are ubiquitous in the movement toward a global government and religion
and, as we have seen, appear to be one of the Merovingian bloodlines spearheading the
conquest of the Throne of Jerusalem. Notably, in 1992, Prince Michael Stewart of Albany was
elected head of the European Council of Princes. Prince Michael is also proclaimed to be the
7th legitimate descendant from the exiled Charles Edward Stuart.

On the web site of Bloodline Of The Holy Grail is found Sir Laurence Gardner's defense of the
Stewart claim to the Thrones of Scotland and England, Sir Laurence himself being no less than
"Prior of the Celtic Church's Sacred Kindred of St Columba, Chevalier Labhran de Saint
Germain and Presidential Attache to the European Council of Princes." The following is a
partial listing of Stewarts who hold influential and powerful positions in the global network

Prince Michael Stewart of Albany

Head of the European Council of Princes

"In June 1992, HRH Prince Michael James Alexander Stewart, 7th Count of
Albany (Scotland) was elected President of the European Council of Princes -- a
constitutional advisory body within the European Union. In this regard, he
succeeded the Imperial and Royal House of Habsburg Austria, who had retained
the office from 1946. The new appointment held significant political implications
for Scotland because, in unanimously electing Michael of Albany, some 32
sovereign houses openly proclaimed the continuing de jure Scots monarchy to an
international audience – a royal dynasty which, according to British academic
historians, had long been extinct." (231)

City, the pastor, Rev. James Parks Morton, conducted a Thanksgiving
day service in which 4,000 children and adults joined with American
Indians, tribal leaders, medicine men, witches, nature worshippers...in a
'circle dance' of religious friendship and unity. Morton said the purpose
of the dance was to 'redefine' Thanksgiving. Part of the impetus for the
ceremony was to create 'a heightened consciousness of the necessity of
different religions working together to save our planet." ( Texe Marrs,

THE STONE OF DESTINY

A Revival leader associated with the United Kingdom/Toronto Blessing wrote a testimony
which portrays Jesus as a voyeur. The blasphemous testimony of Teresa Seputis was posted on
her web page, now titled GodSpeak International, but removed within days of posting our
expose. A portion of this testimony is reprinted in the Revival Connection. Teresa also
ministered in 1994 with John and Carol Arnott of Toronto Blessing fame in San Francisco
(GodSpeak International, John Arnott at SF (July 17, 1994), and in 1996 and 1997 with Randy Clark and
the St. Louis Vineyard Christian Fellowship which sponsored Catch The Fire conferences in
Moscow. ( GodSpeak International, Glimpses of Moscow Catch the Fire I & II)

Of interest to us was the fact that Teresa Seputis' testimony was also posted in an e-mail
conference on the Scottish Stewart Clan Internet Home which focuses on the Toronto Revival
that has been exported around the world. Within hours after the Watch Unto Prayer expose was
that has been exported around the world. Within hours after the Watch Unto Prayer expose was
posted on November 6, 1997, the Scottish Stewart Clan Internet Home blocked access to their
discussion groups for all except those having a secret password. Apparently the Stewart Clan
does not want the Rosicrucian UK-Toronto Revival connection to be known.

Among the 67 CyberChurch discussion groups which were active on the Scottish Stewart Clan
Internet Home we found a broad spectrum of ministries that profess to be Christian:
Pentecostals, Revival, Promise-Keeping Men, Vineyard Churches, Church of God, Assembly of
God, Baptist, Methodist, Lutheran, Seventh Day Adventist, Episcopal, Catholic, Mennonite,
Nazarine, Prolife, Prayer Network, ChristNet-UK, ChristNet-Scotland, CellChurch, Worship
and Unity.

The Scottish Stewart Clan Internet Home is very esoteric with emphasis on the genealogies of
various Scottish clans. New Age books such as Bloodline of the Holy Grail also emphasize
genealogies, especially the Merovingian families, including the Stewarts. On the Stewart Clan
Internet Home is posted the Crest of the Phoenix, which is the occult symbol of resurrection.
The Stewart web site also features a "Christian" version of Dungeons and Dragons titled
"Dragon Raid."

Of special interest on this Merovingian website is a page about the Stone of Destiny, which has
recently been moved from England to Scotland. According to the Stewart Clan interpretation of
Bible prophecy, this Stone (formerly Jacob's Pillar) upon which kings of Scotland and England
were traditionally crowned, will be used in the coronation of Christ as the King of Israel:

"This Stone is believed to be the original Pillar that Jacob dedicated to God after
his all-night wrestling vigil with an angel. From all references, this stone represents
the House of David that went into oblivion after the wicked king Zedekiah was
dethroned by our Father and later blinded then killed along with his sons. Jacob's
Pillar (The Stone of Destiny) was believed to have been subsequently carried by
Jeremiah - along with Zedekiah's two daughters - to Ireland. Later, it went to
Scotland, then England. Most scholars, along with this writer, see these three moves
associated with Ezekiel 21:27: 'I will overturn, overturn, overturn, it: and it shall be
no more, until he come whose right it is; and I will give it him.'
"…It will not be used ever again in the crowning of an earthly king because it
has been announced that it will go on permanent display in Edinburg, Scotland.
Therefore, this move obviously ended the Stone's role in the crowning of kings,
ending with King George VI in 1936 ... the last king crowned over the Stone. That
being the case, Messiah, according to Ezekiel, will be the next King over the House
of David . . . so, the third 'overturn' is yet in effect. In light of these facts, as stated
last month, this move (after some 700 years) would seem to be significant as to just
how close the Lord's return could be. In other words, from Zedekiah forward,
Israel, as a nation, would have no king until Messiah comes (Gen. 49:10) ...and true
to prophecy, that has been the case. This means that the scattered and divided
kingdom of Israel must be restored and Christ installed as her King...'the most holy'
Dan. 9:24"

Although there is disagreement as to which stone is the true Stone of Destiny, and whether it
was Jacob's pillar or pillow, the preceding fable is nearly identical to the account presented by
Laurence Gardner in Bloodline of the Holy Grail:

"Not only were the Grail Knights and Templars appointed Guardians of the
Stewart Sangreal [Holy Grail] in Scotland, they also became protectors of the Stone
of Destiny (the Stone of Scone). This most sacred of Scots treasures had been
brought to Scotland from Ireland by Fergus Mor mac Erc, the first King of
Dalriada, in the 5th century, having originally been carried to Ireland from Judah in
 Dalriada, in the 5th century, having originally been carried to Ireland from Judah in
about 586 BC. The venerated holy relic was said to be the Stone of the Covenant,
known as 'Jacob's Pillow' (Gen. 28:18-22), on which Jacob laid his head and saw
the ladder reaching up to Heaven at Beth-el. In a dream God promised Jacob that
his seed would generate the line of kingship to follow - the line which in due
course became the Davidic succession.
"When the Jews were persecuted by Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, Mattaniah, the
son of King Josiah (and a direct descendant of David), was installed in Judah.
Known as King Zedekiah, he acceded to the throne of Jerusalem in 598 BC.
Twelve years later Jerusalem fell to Nebuchadnezzar, whereupon Zedekiah was
taken to Babylon and blinded (Jer. 39:6-7, 52:10-11). His sons were murdered, but
his daughter Tamar was removed to Ireland (via Egypt and Spain) by the prophet
Jeremiah. He also brought the anointed Stone of the Covenant, which became
known as Lia Fail (Stone of Destiny). In Latin it was the Saxum Fatale.
"Princess Tamar (Teamhair) gave her name to Tara, the seat of the High Kings
of Ireland, and she married Ard Ri (High King) Eochaid, ancestor of Ugaine Mar
(Ugaine the Great). Subsequently, over a millenium, Eochaid's successors were
crowned in the presence of the sacred Stone. The Irish heritage then progressed to
Scotland, where the relic of Judah became synonymous with the Kings of Dalriada.
King Kenneth (MacAlpin (844-859) later moved the Stone to Scone Abbey when
he united the Scots and the Picts. By the time of William the Lion (d. 1214), the
Stone of Destiny bore witness to nearly a hundred coronations in sovereign descent
from King Zedekiah.
"On declaring himself Overlord of Scotland in 1296, Edward I of England stole
what he thought was the Stone of Destiny. What he actually got was a piece of
sandstone from a monastery doorway, which has since rested beneath the
Coronation Throne at Westminster Abbey. This piece of rubble is 26 inches long by
11 inches deep (c. 66x 28 cm) and weighs about 335 lbs (c. 152 kg). Royal seals of
the early Scots kings depict a much larger installation rock, but this rock was not
the sacred Stone of Destiny -- no more than is the medieval masonry prize of King
Edward. The real Stone of Destiny is said to be smaller, more naturally rounded,
and is of inscribed black basalt, not of hand-cut sandstone. It was hidden by the
Cistercian Abbot of Scone in 1296, and it has remained hidden ever since. The
Columbian tradition tells us that, on secreting the Stone, the Abbot prophesied that
one day 'The Michael' would return to his inheritance." (29:299)

The preceding fabrications of the origin of the Stone of Destiny are Merovingian lore which
propagates a variety of fictitious narratives intended to prove that the Biblical promises given to
Israel will be fulfilled in Britain, America, and other Anglo-Saxon countries. One version
identifies the Anglo-Saxon race with the ten lost tribes of Israel which migrated to the British
Isles following the Assyrian Captivity. According to this mythology, Jesus married Mary
Magdalene and fathered children. After the crucifixion, Joseph of Arimethea took Mary and the
children of Jesus to Europe. Of course, Scripture supports neither of these fictions.

Among the Grail romances, the most famous is Parzival, composed by Wolfram von
Eschenbach. In this mystical poem, the Grail is identified as a Philosopher's Stone upon which
appear inscribed the names of the heirs of the throne of Jesus, typified by the phoenix, which
will rise again and restore the inheritance of the Merovingian bloodline:

"You say you yearn for the Grail. You foolish man, I am grieved to hear that.
For no man can ever win the Grail unless he is known in heaven and called by
name to the Grail. This I must tell you about the Grail, for I know it to be so and
have seen it for myself…By the power of that Stone the phoenix burns to ashes, but
the ashes give him life again. Thus does the phoenix moult and change its plumage,
 the ashes give him life again. Thus does the phoenix moult and change its plumage,
which afterward is bright and shining and as lovely as before…
"Such power does the Stone give a man that flesh and bones are at once made
young again. The Stone is also called the Grail. This very day there comes to it a
message wherein lies its greatest power. Today is Good Friday, and they await
there a Dove, winging down from heaven. It brings a small white wafer, and leaves
it upon the Stone…
"Hear now how those who are called to the Grail are made known. On the
Stone, round the edge, appear letters inscribed, giving the name and the lineage of
each one, maid or boy, who is to make the blessed journey. No one needs to rub
out the inscription, for once he has read the name, it fades before his eyes."
(31:297, 63:91-2)

To the establish the Scottish Stewart claims of nobility, the Stone of Scone page presents
another aberrant interpretation of Scripture. Ezekiel 37:19-22 is wrested from its proper Hebrew
context and given a subtle British-Israel rendering. Note in the following excerpt that the
Houses of Judah and Israel are identified as "people" rather than "Jews" exclusively. Thus, the
Merovingian Messiah will unite the world, rather than the Jews, having first vanquished another
false Christ, i.e. the Pope of the Harlot Church.

"Verse 19: "Say unto them (Israel), Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will
take the stick of Joseph (House of Joseph), which is in the hand of Ephraim, and
the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them with him, even with the stick of
Judah (House of Judah), and make them one stick (one nation), and they shall be
one in *mine hand*." These sticks are literal wooden sticks which were used to
represent the divided Kingdom of Israel which had become the House of Judah and
the House of Israel. (See 1 Kings 11) The two sticks mentioned in Ezekiel are not
books or scrolls -- they are people -- as the Scriptures will document. The sticks
simply represent people. Note verses 16 & 17: 'Moreover, thou son of man, take
thee one stick, and write upon it, For Judah, and for the children of Israel his
companions: then take another stick, and write upon it, For Joseph, the stick of
Ephraim, and for all the house of Israel his companions: And join them one to
another into one stick; and they shall become one in thine hand.'
"The word 'stick' is literal; that is, it means a stick of wood -- not a book or
scroll. (See Strong's No. H6086) Therefore, in writing the name of Judah on one
stick and the name of Joseph on the other, is simply showing the separation or
division of God's People, Israel, and that by a miracle, He will rejoin them into one
people. Our Father says that when asked about the meaning of this joining, tell
them as follows: Verse 20: 'Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, I will take the stick
(the House or people) of Joseph, which is in the hand of Ephraim (whose leader
was Ephraim -- at that time), and the tribes of Israel his fellows, and will put them
with him, even with the stick of Judah (join them with the House or people of
Judah -- the remnant), and make them one stick (one people), and they shall be one
(a single nation, as in the beginning) in mine hand.' Verse 22 con-firms that these
two sticks represent people who have been scattered to the four winds -- but will be
reunited when Christ returns; read carefully:
"'And I will make them *one nation* (one stick, one people) in the land upon the
mountains of Israel; and one king (Christ) shall be king to them *all* (Shiloh;
Whose right the Stone of Destiny represents): and they shall be no more two
nations (two sticks), neither shall they be divided into two kingdoms any more at
all:' Can Christ be a King over anything except people? These two sticks being
joined are specifically used to remind the descendants of Israel, even today, that
they will yet be reunited into one nation -- a single people -- in the original land
given to Abraham!."
 given to Abraham!."

THE MEROVINGIAN DYNASTY:

PART VIII
THE ROMAN DRAGON

According to the Scottish Stewart Clan Internet Home, prior to the crowning of the Messiah on
the sacred Stone of Destiny, a false Christ will try to unite mankind.

"So, this movement of the Stone of Destiny could very well be the beginning of a
chain of events to shape the world -- and prepare His remnant today -- for the
things about to come to pass; the false Messiah shall come first and try to fake
uniting the people (Daniel 9:27) under the promised covenant of peace, but he will
fail. He will pass himself off as Israel's Messiah, and Christianity's Christ."

In Scripture, Daniel 12:1 identifies Michael as "the great prince" who will rescue Israel during
the Tribulation:

"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the
children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since
there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be
delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book."

Will "The Michael" prophesied by the Abbot of Scone come forward (stand up) as the lineal
descendant of Jesus Christ, impersonating Michael the Archangel and defeating "Christianity's
Christ," who will "fake uniting the people…under the promised covenant of peace"? Purveyors
of the Grail legend thoroughly disparage the New Testament, arguing that the Gnostic Nag
Hammadi Scrolls predated it and are therefore more authentic. Citing the spurious Dead Sea
Scrolls, Gardiner informs readers that 'The Michael' at any time in history is the High Priest
Melchizedek, whose office Jesus Christ once occupied. Upon returning to receive his kingdom,
"The Michael" will face a formidable foe:

"It is of importance to note that the X sign, which became so hated by the Roman
Church, was identified with the archangel Michael (Melchizedek) onwards from
Old Testament times. The heritage of St Michael was the dynasty of high Zadok
priests -- a heritage that prevailed in the continuing Messianic line... Fragments of
the Prince Melchizedek Document found among the Dead Sea Scrolls indicate that
Melchizedek and Michael were one and the same. It is this representation which
features in the Revelation when the Archangel Michael (the descending Zadokite
power of the Messiah) fights with the Roman Dragon of oppression…" (29:299,
177)

The Dead Sea Scrolls In English do in fact contain a scroll titled "The Heavenly Prince
Melchizedek." The introduction to this scroll identifies Melchizedek with Michael the
Archangel and also Elohim, who will officiate at the final judgment:
Archangel and also Elohim, who will officiate at the final judgment:

"The heavenly deliverer is Melchizedek. Identical with the Archangel Michael, he

is head of the 'Sons of Heaven,' or 'God's of Justice' and is referred to as Elohim
and 'el'... Here Melchizedek is portrayed as presiding over the final judgment and
condemnation of his demonic counterpart Belial/ Satan, the Prince of
Darkness...The great act of deliverance is expected to occur on the Day of
Atonement at the end of the tenth Jubilee cycle." (The Dead Sea Scrolls in
English, 3rd Ed., Geza Vermes, England, JSOT, 1987, p. 300)

In the following excerpt from Bloodline Of The Holy Grail, the student of prophecy will
recognize at once Gardiner's deceit as to the identity of the dragon of Revelation 12. Revelation
12:9 explicitly states that the dragon is "…the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole
world…" To further the deception required for the Merovingian conspirators to attain their
messianic goal, Sir Laurence identifies the dragon as the Roman Empire:

"The Imperial Romans displayed a purple dragon on their standard, and it is this
symbol that is depicted in Revelation 12:3, when Michael confronts the 'dragon
with seven heads.' As we have seen earlier, the dragon in this instance was Rome:
known historically as the City of the Seven Kings (or heads - the number of kings
before the Republic was formed.)... We should therefore understand that the
Archangel Michael's battle with the dragon in Revelation 12:7 corresponds to the
conflict between the Zadokite succession and 'the beast of blasphemy' -- Imperial
Rome." (29:183, 56)

To illustrate the point, Bloodline Of The Holy Grail features a picture of an angel slaying a
dragon with the following caption:

"Truth Against the World by Peter Robson. The day of fulfillment when the
DRAGON is slain and the PHOENIX shall rise...Wearing the black garb of the
esoteric church, the triumphant woman carries the therapeutic serpent of wisdom
and healing."

The esoteric church mentioned here are the Gnostics cults in their myriad forms ~ from the
ancient mystery religions to the Alexandrian School of Egypt, to the medieval Celtic Druids,
Knights Templar and Babylonian Kabbalists, to the enlightened Rosicrucians and modern
Freemasons and New Agers. According to the annals of Merovingian revisionist history, the
esoteric church suffered the persecutions of the Catholic Church, which the authors
misleadingly identify as the Christian Church. According to their prophetic tradition, "The
Michael," who will come forward (stand up) as the lineal descendant of Jesus Christ and the
apotheosis of Michael the Archangel, defeats the Roman dragon or "Christianity's Christ" who
will "fake uniting the people …under the promised covenant of peace."

However, the caption under the Stewart Crest of the Phoenix on the Scottish Stewart Clan
Home page states: "Courage gains strength from a wound," which reveals that the Merovingian
dynasty (rather than the Roman Church) is "the beast which had the wound by a sword, and did
live." (Rev. 13:3,12,14) Fritz Springmeier states in The Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines:

"The 13th bloodline lacks nothing to bring forth their Anti-Christ who will appear
to have all the correct credentials. I would not even be surprised if their Anti-
Christ, in order to appear real, will expose another Anti-Christ." (p. 229)
THE MICHAEL

No doubt the sacred Stone of Destiny will be consulted to identify the royal heir to the Throne
of England, to whom has also been given the right (according to Merovingian tradition) to
accede to the Throne of Jerusalem, occupying the seat of authority over the kingdoms of this
world. It seems incredible that the Merovingian legend, with no basis in fact, could garner
enough credibility to convince modern man that a persona with the credentials of "Michael the
Archangel" is the legitimate heir to the Thrones of England and Jerusalem, having a place in the
genealogy of Jesus Christ. However, the groundwork has been carefully laid over many decades
for this very deception.

In the 1970's, the popular Mary Stewart series of novels were published about King Arthur, the
legendary guardian of the Holy Grail, and the Knights of the Round Table. In recent years,
popular movies such as "Braveheart" (William Wallace, the hero of Scottish independence)
"Indiana Jones" and "First Knight" have been subtly indoctrinating the masses with
Merovingian lore. The History Channel often presents documentaries, such as "The Shadow of
the Knights Templars" and "In Search of the Holy Grail," which present the Merovingian quest
in a positive light. And a TV series called Highlander features a Scottish hero who, in the final
scene, usually beheads a hapless victim with his sword.

One movie titled "Michael" featured John Travolta as Michael the Archangel come to earth to
answer a widow's prayer for help. When questioned about his promiscuous conduct by a
reporter who thought angels should be holy, Michael retorted, "I'm not that kind of angel."
Another movie, "City of Angels" stars an angel who falls in love with a human girl and is
willing to forfeit eternity and become a human being because he loves her so much.

The purpose of these movies is most likely to prepare the world for "The Michael," who will be
the first of many demons to manifest physically in the same manner recorded in the pre-flood
account of Genesis:

"...the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took
them wives of all which they chose." (Gen. 6:2) In very fact, Jesus foretold in his
endtime discourse: "But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the
Son of man be. (Matt. 24.37)

MICHAEL OF THE CULTS

An impersonator of Michael the Archangel who becomes a key figure in the unfolding of Bible
prophecy would be welcomed with open arms by many false religions like the Jehovah's
Witnesses, which already regard him to be Jesus. According to the research of the Watchmen
Fellowship Expositor, "Jesus of the Watchtower" is not God but an archangel:

"The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society, head-quartered in Brooklyn, New York,
teaches that Jesus has not always existed, but was himself a created being originally
named Michael, the Archangel."

The Jehovah's Witnesses' view of Christ is explained in their book, Aid To Bible
Understanding:

"'Scriptural evidence indicates that the name Michael applied to God's Son before
he left heaven to become Jesus Christ and also after his return. Michael is the only
one said to be the 'archangel,' meaning 'chief angel' or 'principle angel.'" (p. 1152)
 Another cult, Urantia, teaches that Jesus was a created angelic being called Michael:

"Jesus Christ: The Eternal Son, along with the Universal Father, created all the
'only-begotten' Creator Sons who, as part of the Order of Michael, are responsible
for the creation of humanity. Before incarnating on this planet as Jesus of Nazareth,
Jesus was Michael of Nebadon, the 611,121st original concept of the Paradise
Father and Son. Despite being the 'original concept,' Jesus was not the Eternal Son,
but rather he possessed 'additional power and authority, for he not only personifies
the Eternal Son but also fully represents and actually embodies the personality
presence of the Universal Father...

"The URANTIA Book also fills in details about the resurrection. After the
crucifixion, Jesus underwent 'the Morontia Transit,' in which the resurrected
morontia form and personality of Jesus [i.e., the spirit of Jesus without the physical
body] went forth from the tomb and met with Gabriel and other celestial
administrators. His initiation into the morontia world [the next level of existence]
normally takes about an hour, but was twice interrupted because Jesus wanted to
explain to his followers what was happening." (Watchmen Expositor)

The New Age Morontia Foundation promotes devotion to the Archangel Michael who will
prepare mankind for the new millennium:

"Archangel Michael ~ St. Michael, The Archangel of Cosmic Justice, is the

spiritual force which moves justice throughout the universe! Archangel Michael's
Clarion Call is to alert all souls to the changes in the coming new millennium. The
mission of Michael's ministry is to teach each one of you how to raise your
consciousness in preparation for the coming changes and to align you with the
energy of the new millennium to achieve your greatest prosperity, abundance, joy
and true love."

Finally, Dr. Malachi Martin, a close associate of Pope John Paul II, has sanctioned a pamphlet
by the title of Saint Michael's Sword. Noting that St Michael the Archangel appeared in the
100th year of Our Lady of Guadalupe (April 25, 1631), the publication is dedicated to the honor
of Saint Michael the Archangel-Prince.

"May the wonders performed at San Miguel del Milagro continue to draw all to
thank God for the grace of our mighty and noble angelic defender…in front of this
place can be found a spring of miraculous water for all infirmities… Don't doubt
what I tell you. This light which you have seen descend from heaven is the virtue
which God is giving to this spring for the health and healing of all infirmities and
necessities. Make it known to all." (James David Holloway, Jr., Texas:1990)

It is significant that this pamphlet is reproduced on an Irish/Celtic web site, Star Harbor, where
many publications by Malachi Martin are advertised. Considering medieval history, modern
Celts and Roman Catholics seem strange bedfellows indeed. However, prophecies of
Nostradamus and a medieval Irish priest and Kabbalist who became St. Malachi foretell that a
final pope will betray Holy Mother Church into the hands of Antichrist. ("The Antichrist and
the Pope," Nostradamus)

MICHAEL THE RESTRAINER?

We would expect the cults to confuse Michael the Archangel with God, however, it is
disconcerting to discover that Christian ministries are also promoting Michael beyond the
boundaries set in Scripture. Several years ago, Trinity Broadcasting Network was offering a
statue of Michael to those who send a large enough "love gift." The 8-1/2" tall molded acrylic
statue depicts Michael's defeat of Satan. With spread wings and sword drawn, Michael held a
chain (ready to throw Satan into the pit for 1,000 years) with his foot on the Dragon's head.

More ominously, a Christian book, The Pre-Wrath Rapture Of The Church by Marvin
Rosenthal, teaches that Michael the Archangel is the Restrainer of II Thessalonians 2:6 and 7,
which states: "And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For
the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken
out of the way." Rosenthal supports this claim by interpreting Daniel 12:1 as: Michael, the
prince, standing aside rather than standing up for Israel.

"And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince which standeth for the
children of thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since
there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time thy people shall be
delivered, every one that shall be found written in the book."

Denying the orthodox interpretation of Daniel 12:1, Rosenthal strains credibility in his
exposition of this verse in his chapter, "The Archangel Michael: Protectorof Israel, Restrainer of
the Antichrist":

"But what does the expression, 'And at that time shall Michael stand up,' mean?
Rashi, one of Israel's greatest teachers, whose Hebrew scholarship is unexcelled,
and one who had no concern regarding the issue of the timing of the Rapture
understood stand up (Hebrew, amad) to literally mean 'stand still' in Daniel 12:1.
Michael, the guardian of Israel, had earlier fought for her (Dan. 10:13, 21), but now
he would 'stand still or stand aside.' He would not help; he would not restrain; he
would not hold down.
"Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible says that amad means 'To stand,
stand still or fast.' And Strong's concordance cites one of the root meanings of
amad as "cease" and one of its definitions as 'stand still.'
"If a man is reclining or seated and is said to amad, he will stand 'up.' If a man is
standing and active and said to amad, he will stand 'still.' The archangel Michael, in
context, was already said to be actively defending Israel. To amad meant he would
'stand still,' 'desist,' or 'cease' his defense on their behalf.
"Some clear biblical instances of amad meaning 'to be still' or 'desist' are:
'they…stood still {desisted}, and answered no more' (Job 32:16); and again, 'And
Ezra opened the book in the sight of all the people {for he was above all the
people}; and when he opened it, all the people stood up' (Neh. 8:5). Commenting
on this verse, Rashi indicates that the people kept quiet (stood still) while Ezra read
the Torah.
"Rashi wrote, concerning Daniel 12:1, 'The Holy One, Blessed be He, said to
Michael, 'You are silent? You do not defend my children.' The archangel Michael
who had specifically been involved with standing for Israel will, in the middle of
the seventieth week, stand still, desist, stand aside, cease to stand for her."

In every other verse in which it appears in the book of Daniel, the Hebrew word "amad" is
translated "stand up." In Strong's Concordance, the word "amad" is actually defined as follows:
 5975. amad, aw-mad'; a prim. root; to stand, in various relations (lit. and fig.,
intrans. and trans.): -- abide (behind), appoint, arise, cease, confirm, dwell, be
employed, endure, establish, leave, make, ordain, be [over], place, (be) present
(self), raise up, remain, repair, + serve, set (forth, over, -tle, up), (make to, make to
be at a, with-) stand (by, fast, firm, still, up), (be at a) stay (up), tarry.

To support his choice of translation, Marvin Rosenthal cites the commentary of a prominent
Jewish scholar named Rashi. From Rashi's interpretation of Daniel 12:1 Rosenthal then draws
the conclusion that Michael must therefore be "he that letteth...until he be taken out of the way"
in II Thess. 2:7. Rosenthal includes no documented information about "Rashi, one of Israel's
greatest scholars, whose Hebrew scholarship is unexcelled..." However a search on the Internet
finds Rashi (Rabbi Shlomo Yitzchaki, 1040-1105 A.D.) recommended on several Kabbalist
Lubavitch web sites, such as The Kabbalah Center. There the commentaries of Rashi on the
Torah and Talmud are acclaimed by Kabbalists to be "a cornerstone of Jewish learning...
Considered Israel’s greatest interpretation." The Kabbalah Learning Center Internet page,
which displayed the Rampant Lion of the Merovingians, also defined the Kabbalah for the
uninitiated:

"KABBALAH is mystical Judaism. It is the deepest and most hidden meaning

of the Torah, or Bible. Through the ultimate knowledge and mystical practices of
Kabbalah, one can reach the highest spiritual levels attainable. Although many
people rely on belief, faith, and dogmas in pursuing the meaning of life, the
unknown, and the unseen, Kabbalists seek a spiritual connection with the Creator
and the forces of the Creator, so that the strange becomes familiar, and faith
becomes knowledge.
"Students [of The Kabbalah Learning Center] come away with a new sense of
consciousness about people, the environment, and the true meaning of life. Armed
with these concepts, the student can then keep on taking eight and twelve week
classes on advanced kabbalistic concepts, reincarnation, healing, astrology, and
other intriguing subjects. There are also special seminars on everything from
healing relationships to Kabbalah and Business to the kabbalistic meaning of the
Torah."

Israeli journalist and author, Hannah Newman, warns her Jewish readers that the Kabbalah is no
longer the exclusive province of practical occultists, but has being mainstreamed into traditional
Judaism.

"In a similar development on the mystical side of Judaism, New Age spokesmen
applaud orthodox Jewish teachers for recently releasing Kabbalah from the
restricted access imposed on it by past generations of Jewish sages, making its
teachings available to all, and even encouraging free exploration without rabbinic
supervision. In Israel the Zohar (a major Kabbalistic work) is even being sold door-
to-door. [This is strictly forbidden under the 'old order' of Judaism, but New Agers
are not concerned with proper understanding of the teaching, since Kabbalah is
simply one path to their goal of getting as many people as possible, as quickly as
possible, into 'contact with the spirit realm']. These teachers are being hailed as 'co-
conspirators' who are furthering the New Age Plan. [not stated whether deliberately
or unknowingly, but the results will be the same.]" (Masters of the Blinding Light)

Although Rashi is considered by Hannah and other Jewish traditionalists to be a universally

respected commentator in Judaism, this scholar's wide appeal to Kabbalists and mainstream
Jews alike hardly recommends him as an authority on Bible doctrine. Marvin Rosenthal uses

MICHAEL THE INITIATOR

Preeminently, The Pre-Wrath Rapture of the Church betrays an end-time agenda which could
easily align with the Merovingian conspiracy, as the following excerpts demonstrate:

1. Misidentification of the dragon in Rev. 12 as the Roman Church engenders

hostility toward the Pope and his Church, the archenemies of the Prieuré de Sion.

"Revelation 12 through 14 form a trilogy of thought. First, chapter 12 speaks of a

woman (Israel) who gives birth to a child (Christ) and of Satan who, when his false
religious system (Romanist) is unable to kill Christ, assails the Jewish people
through whom Christ came into the world. If he cannot get them to bow to him, he
will attempt to kill them so that they cannot bow to the true Christ. The ultimate
manifestation of this scheme will occur during the Great Tribulation, 'the time of
Jacob's trouble. (Jer. 30:7; Dan 12:1; Matt. 24:21)" (pp. 73-74)

2. Misinterpretation of Rev. 17:14 in the present tense moves the destruction of

the Antichrist forward in the timetable of events so that it coincides with the
destruction of Mystery Babylon. The verse says that the Lamb "shall" overcome the
ten horns. Rosenthal states:

"...the defeat of the Antichrist, which immediately follows the destruction of

Babylon with its false religious system. (Rev. 17:5, 14)" (p. 74)

3. Misrepresentation of the Antichrist political system as "atheistic" is a set up for

the introduction of a theocracy based on the mystery religions under the
Merovingian priest/king. According to Daniel 11, the Antichrist will be quite
religious, worshipping the god of forces (the force). However, Rosenthal states:

"(Antichrist's) purpose will be assimilation of the Jewish people through the

religion of humanism...Humanistic philosophy rests on four major pillars. The first
is atheism, the belief that there is no God...The second pillar of humanism is
evolution...The third pillar of humanism, moral relativity, comes logically out of the
two... The fourth pillar is pragmatic and relates to values and lifestyle. If atheism
and evolution are true and no absolutes exist, then amorality, which means no
morality reigns...there is no right or wrong." (pp. 81-2)

Pre-Wrath Rapture Of The Church has many other elements necessary to prepare the apostate
church which, left on earth after the Pretribulation Rapture, will accept a "Michael" character
who will be heralded as the heroic deliverer of Israel before the genuine Michael the Archangel
comes on the scene (Daniel 12:1, Rev. 12:7). Tragically, other pseudo-Christian books, such as
Cosmic Christmas by Max Lucado, are conditioning the apostate church to accept
manifestations of angels as the officiates of the global initiation.

Considering the Merovingian plan to introduce "The Michael" as heir to the Throne of
Jerusalem in the lineage of Jesus Christ, and also the identification of Jesus as Michael the
Archangel in the various false religions, Pre-Wrath Rapture may be just the book to deceive
those who miss the real rapture. According to Rosenthal's confusing exegesis of I Thess. 4:16,
there will either be two shouts at the Second Coming (the Lord's shout and Michael's voice) or
there will either be two shouts at the Second Coming (the Lord's shout and Michael's voice) or
there is a subtle attempt here to blend the two.

"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout {the victor's shout
(see Joel 2:11 where Jesus is seen to shout in connection with His coming at the
Day of the Lord)}, with the voice of the archangel {Michael is the only angel ever
specifically given the title "archangel" (Jude 9); although Gabriel may also be an
archangel, he is never so designated}, and with the trump of God {the trump is
blown in connection with (1) calling God's people to His presence (Num. 10:3; cf.
Mt. 24:31; 1 Cor. 15:51-52) and, therefore, would be appropriate in connection
with the Rapture..."

To appreciate the grave danger of Rosenthal's obfuscation of Jesus Christ and Michael, consider
the following statement from a Seventh-Day Adventist organization. Interpreting Scripture with
Scripture, the student of the Bible will recognize the erroneous interpretations of the woman as
the church, the dragon as Rome and Michael as Christ!

"The Bible identifies who Michael is: The name is from the Hebrew mika'el which
means 'who is like God'. Michael is called 'one of the chief princes" (Dan. 10:13),
'your Prince' (Dan. 10:21), and the "great Prince" (Dan. 12:1). He is the Archangel
of Jude 9 who has resurrection power as is witnessed by His resurrection of Moses.
At His Second Coming Christ will call the dead forth 'with the archangel's call'
(1Thes. 4:16). Only Christ has the 'keys of death' (Rev. 1:18). Michael must be
Christ who claimed, "I am the resurrection and the life." John 11:25" (Astounding
Bible Truths)

Interestingly, the 'Astounding Bible Truths' Sabbath page linked to another Seventh-Day
Adventist web site, Our Sabbath Heritage, which promotes the Celtic Church, on which page
was found a "speaking stone."

"The Changan Monument, or the "speaking stone," as it is called, is considered to

be as important a find as the Rosetta Stone for it had the inscriptions in more than
one language. The truth was preserved because the Jesuits were not able to read the
inscription that was in Syrian."

The author, James Arrabito, connects Seventh-Day Adventists with the Celtic Church and
presents the typical Celtic revisionist history, i.e., the "true Christian" Celtic Church vs. the
Roman Catholic dragon :

"Wherever the influence of the Roman Catholic Jesuit Priests extended, they
systematically destroyed and falsified the true records of Christian history. As the
night of the Dark Ages began to fade in the light of the nineteenth century, the
moving of God's hand was shown in another discovery. Two renown British
scholars, Reverend Dr. Graves, (Bishop of Limerick, a pillar in the Anglo-Irish
Church), and Sir Samuel Fergusson, (distinguished lawyer and counsel to the
Queen of England), presented their discoveries to an astonished British intellectual
community.
"These gentlemen proved that the ancient Celtic Ogam writings discovered on
tombs and ancient temples in Ireland and Scotland were NOT writings of later
centuries, but, were in fact related to, and pre-dated ancient Latin. These, and other
startling discoveries revealed that the primitive seventh-day Sabbath-keeping Celtic
church originated during the Roman occupation of Britain, and that the retreats of
 church originated during the Roman occupation of Britain, and that the retreats of
the Irish monks had been the last bastion of classical knowledge in the western
world, when the rest of the world had collapsed into barbarism and papal
superstition." (Ibid.)

The Seventh Day Adventists, Jehovah's Witnesses, New Age cults, Rosicrucians, the Celtic
Church -- all are looking for the appearance of "The Michael" or Michael the Archangel who
will defeat the Dragon, which they propose is the Roman Catholic Church. All have rearranged
the end-time scenario so that the "The Michael" arrives on the scene at the mid-point of the
tribulation, at which time he slays the "dragon" (i.e., the Pope and his church), after which
Michael takes his place as "Christ" on the throne of the Temple of Jerusalem. After "The
Michael's" glorious victory, a global initiation will most likely be performed as mankind makes
a covenant of loyalty to the true Antichrist. We can only surmise that this out-of-body
experience will closely mimic I Corinthians 15:52 -- "In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we
shall be changed."

What rationalization will have been offered to the apostate church after the true Church is taken
out of this world? Alice Bailey wrote in Initiation: Human & Solar that these were souls who
did not "achieve the needed expansion of consciousness... (they) will be held to be failures...
transferred to those planetary schemes which from the point of view of time are not so far
advanced as our Earth scheme." (164::96)

KNIGHTS OF THE ROUND TABLE

According to the World Book Encyclopedia, "Saint Michael was the patron saint of knights."
Upon researching the plethora of Grail literature inundating the mass media, one discovers that
indoctrination in medieval pagan lore is taking place on a grand scale. Although Christians
would prefer to believe that the occult legend of the Merovingian bloodline is confined to the
network of New Age cults, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that this megalomaniacal vision
is being introduced to the Christian community Church via change agents who are
surreptitiously promoting Celtic lore and traditions under the banners of "righteousness,"
"morality," "integrity," "honor," "chivalry," ad infinitum.

Through many points of entry, the legendary heroism of the medieval warrior/mystic/monks is
being promoted in Christian churches. The Scottish Stewart Clan's promotion of the Toronto
Blessing reveals the true source of this occult revival. Another piece of evidence linking the
Merovingians to the revival is a 1997 post from Revival leader, Richard Riss, concerning a
change of leadership at the Seattle Revival Center. Seattle seems to be a main center for the
global planners, being the headquarters of one of the ten Federal Regions of the United States:

Celtic Revival Swords

"…The following change has been announced at Seattle Revival Center, Seattle,
WA on Friday, Oct.24, 1997. Please feel free to use this information as you deem
appropriate. Thanks.
"The theme for the Third Annual Celebration of the birth of Seattle Revival
Center, 'You Haven’t Seen Anything Yet!' was more appropriate than any
imagined. During the conference, the leadership of SRC met to affirm that God was
calling these men to pass leadership of the Center to others in order to move into a
greater dimension of ministry for past leadership and SRC. Wayne Anderson, Steve
Richard and Darrel Stott have increasingly been called to America and the nations,
 Richard and Darrel Stott have increasingly been called to America and the nations,
necessitating a change in local leadership of SRC.
"In a highly emotional and dramatic 'passing of the torch' ceremony, the three
founders of Seattle Revival Center gathered with new leadership at a 'Knights of
the Round Table.' During an exchange of Celtic swords, the Holy Spirit moved
powerfully on the entire group, confirming the direction of God. Stacey Campbell,
of Kelowna, B.C. followed, and prophecied an increase and enlargement of the
effect and impact of Seattle Revival Center both regionally and in the world..."
(Seattle Revival Center, 12636 SE 89th PL, Newcastle, WA 98056)

The ceremonial exchange of Celtic swords among the Revival leaders at a "Knights of the
Roundtable" is manifestly derived from the Celtic legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the
Round Table. The fame of King Arthur, leader of the Britons, circa 500 AD, derives from his
election as Guardian of the Holy Grail, reported to be the cup used by Jesus and His disciples at
the Last Supper. Readers who are familiar with the tales of the Arthurian period of English
history (e.g. Camelot) will recall the degeneracy of King Arthur's legendary Court rather than
its virtue. A New Age book, Messiah & the Second Coming by John David and Naomi Rice,
recalls the much glamorized affair at Camelot:

"The fair Knight Lancelot came to King Arthur in his young manhood, gifted,
adventure-some, idealistic, the King and knights accepted him into their sacred
group. Guinevere gave Lancelot her heart instantly. He returned her love and
betrayed his king, though he loved Arthur, Lancelot took every opportunity to be
with Queen Guinevere…
"The guilty love between Lancelot and Guinevere cast a cloud upon King
Arthur's court. Misdirected thinking and living for self-gratification has a way of
being contagious. Other knights began to weaken and live for pleasure…
"Guinevere's power over Lancelot caused him to fail in his quest for the Holy
Grail. …Jealousy and ambition overcame the knights and the secret love of
Lancelot and Guinevere denounced by each of them to the King. Arthur's grief
appears to be more for Lancelot, his fair knight, than for his love, Guinevere.
Lancelot fled to France, Arthur followed, but while Arthur was gone some of the
knights seized the kingdom. Arthur returns, having lost his battle with Lancelot.
Arthur wins back his kingdom but is mortally wounded." (John Davis and Naomi
Rice, Messiah and the Second Coming, Coptic Press, 1982, pp. 100-1)

Warrior Children

Notwithstanding the moral condition of Arthur's Knights of the Roundtable, there is on the
Internet the home page of a private Calvert's School that offers to parents who homeschool their
children a "King Arthur and His Knights" interactive CD-Rom. This CD is even designated
"Winner of a 1996 Parents' Choice Honor."

"Calvert School's Home Instruction Department is proud to offer its first interactive
CD-ROM, King Arthur Through the Ages. The program, appropriate for students
from fifth grade through adult, allows one to read a story about the Round Table,
hear an excerpt from Geoffrey's [of Monmouth] account, or see the coat of arms of
an Arthurian knight from an unpublished 16th century manuscript. This
compendium of literature, art, history and legend may serve as a perfect
introduction to the Arthurian legend or a gateway into the vast body of Arthurian
lore beyond Calvert's fifth grade text King Arthur and His Knights. The fee for
King Arthur is $40.00."
 King Arthur is $40.00."

Another New Age book, The Grail Castle: Myths And Mysteries in the Celtic Tradition by
Kenneth Johnson and Marguerite Elsbeth, advocates the myth of the Grail legend as appropriate
material for those involved in the "universal male quest" for "genuine masculine
empowerment," also called the "quest for the Grail Castle." (It is noteworthy that numerous
Stewarts are affiliated with Calvary Chapel whose European Conference Center is a castle in
the Austrian Alps.) Inspired by the Arthurian tradition, the authors suggest that the training of a
young boy as a warrior requires that he be mentored by a man other than his own father.

"Few Celtic myths describe for us a deep relationship between father and son. In
many cases, the father is entirely absent, a dim figure who never appears on the
stage...King Arthur's father Uther Pendragon actually gave his son up to be raised
in the woods, then proceeded to die during the boy's absence...A mentor is not the
same as a father. Our fathers are too close to us to play the role of mentor or
initiator...The father figure and more specifically his professional interest, is often
rejected in favor of something different, new and more exciting... If Dad is vice
president of the local bank the Warrior child may rove the world as a hired
mercenary. Therefore, in traditional societies, the mentor role is often played by a
male relative." (Llewellyn Pub., 1995, pp. 22-27)

"Christian" Initiation?

The point is made that initiation is the rite of passage which transforms a young boy into a
warrior. In very fact, some churches are now substituting initiation ceremonies for the "new
birth" which is only accomplished by the Holy Spirit, and never through rite or ceremony. A
neo-Evangelical magazine, Sojourners, claims to be "Rooted in the solid ground of prophetic
biblical tradition…a progressive Christian voice…." The May/June 1996 issue of Sojourners
contained an article by a priest titled "Boys To Men: Rediscovering Rites of Passage for Our
Time." The very structured process situation described by the author, a Franciscan monk,
insures that the hapless victim is psychologically manipulated into compliance by employing the
same mind control techniques used by cults to divest their prey of volition and freedom:

"Cultures throughout history have felt that if a young man were

not initiated to 'the mysteries,' he would not know what to do
with his pain and would almost always abuse his power.
Richard Rohr relates five difficult male initiation truths: Life is
hard. You are going to die. You are not that important. You are
not in control. Your life is not about you. Read his sample
North American initiation pattern, A Process of Transformation.

A Process of Transformation
A sample North American initiation pattern.
By Richard Rohr, O.F.M.

WHO: "Godfathers" and teen-age boys of almost even

numbers. No observers.

WHERE: Someplace in the natural world, apart from what has

become predictable. "Liminal" and sacred space must be
created.
[Editor's Note: Sacred space, such as the "sacred circle," is a
physical area that has been ritually set apart for paranormal
conditions to exist. "Liminal" is derived from the word limen
which means "threshold." Describing humanity as the Dweller
on the Threshold, Theosophist Alice Bailey specified that
"threshold" meant "the threshold of divinity." (62) The initiate
is also called the Dweller on the Threshold, who is expecting to
be transformed into the divine state through occult power.]
WHAT to bring: Just what is needed for survival and ritual.
Sparse, stripped-down possessions. No radios, tape players,
newspapers, or books to hide in. Each young man has a special
journal, perhaps presented by his mother before he leaves,
which he is guided to write in at least twice a day. Honest
feelings, fears, desires, prayers, and experiences must be named
personally and safely or the young man will not go deep inside.

HOW LONG: From a minimum of four days to whatever is

workable. If work cannot be taken off or schedules changed, the
message of intense significance will not be given. Create
expectation long beforehand in whatever ways you can devise:
meet as a group several times, pray together, give books to
read, make expectations very clear that everybody will be
together from start to finish.

HOW: Three stages with the young man must be ritualized,

experienced, and talked about:

1. Leaving, letting go, separation from boyhood, irresponsibility,

his former status, and the seeing of women and older men as his
servants. This can be done through some kind of death ritual,
whereby he accepts the eternal pattern of dying as the
prerequisite for all rebirth. Elders tell a bit of their story.

2. Experiencing an alternative universe now. Normally some

time of extended silence, solitude, and deprivation wherein he
can learn to draw upon deeper resources than he is presently
aware of. The "desert" of Jesus, the vision quest of the native
peoples "secularized in boot camp and athletic training" must
be made sacred again, but not "churchy." He must be alone long
enough to see the patterns in all of nature.

3. Incorporating and affiliating with "sacred manhood." This

can be done in a final time of storytelling by elders, where they
let the boys "in." This must be vulnerable, honest, and intimate;
sharing faith and one's own path, along with hopes and care for
the new initiate. There can be a celebration ritual and symbols
given, but don't overdo anything. A stark and clear
understatement is safer for the male. If he does not feel
manipulated or told what to feel, he is more likely to trust his
real experience.
 WHEN: At a time when elders have themselves been "initiated
into the mysteries" and have something to say about reality,
God, suffering, community, transformation, and growth. When
boys are prepared, given expectation, but also can come with
genuine freedom.

IF: The ritual can only be done if there is some "common

wonderful," some shared goodness, some "great idea" that the
elders already have between them. Unless there is a collective
wisdom that the boy is being initiated into, it will not have
depth or endurance. It might take a year for the elders to find
what it is themselves! Then initiate the next generation."

RAISING MODERN-DAY KNIGHTS

Last year, Focus on the Family published a book titled Raising a Modern-Day Knight, by
Robert Lewis. This publication appeals to the legend of King Arthur and his Knights of the
Round Table to recommend that Christian fathers return to the wisdom of medieval paganism
for the training of their sons. The following excerpt, from a section of Robert Lewis' book titled
"The Knight and His Round Table," recommends that men become bonded with other men
through the mystical power of ceremony:

"In the Middle Ages, pages and squires became knights because they were part of a
masculine community. At an early age, the page left home and entered into a
mentoring relationship with an older man, usually a cousin or an uncle… Boys
become men in the community of men. There is no substitute for this vital
component. Dad, if your boy is to become a man, you must enlist the
community...the community of men expands a son's spiritual and moral resources...
Bonded through the mystical power of ceremony, [they] become mentors to these
young men...If you are serious about moving your son to manhood, begin asking
the Lord to lead you to a small community of men..." (Focus on the Family Pub.,
1997, pp. 150-51)

What community of men that is based on the order of knighthood would provide a bonding
experience through the mystical power of ceremony? The global network of secret societies
under the oversight of the Prieuré de Sion offer many such opportunities through various
fraternities such as Freemasonry, Skull & Bones, Knights Templar, Knights of Malta, etc.

Not unlike other New Age propaganda, Raising a Modern-Day Knight attempts to inculcate
Christians with the notion that the knights of medieval Europe were honorable men. Calling evil
good, Christian leaders who glorify knighthood omit to mention the bloodshed, debauchery and
occult rituals which were the lifestyle of the medieval mystic/warrior/monks. Consider the
following profile of the Knights Templar by Michael Biagent and Richard Leigh, excerpted
from The Temple & the Lodge:

"At the apex of their power, the Templars were accused of pride, arrogance,
ruthlessness, and intemperate and dissolute behaviour. 'To drink like a Templar'
was a frequent simile in medieval England; and despite their vow of chastity, the
knights seem to have wenched as zealously as they drank. But whatever their
conduct in such respects as these, their reputation for accuracy, honesty and
integrity in financial affairs remained untarnished. One might not like them, but one
 integrity in financial affairs remained untarnished. One might not like them, but one
knew one could rely on them…
"In theory, canon law forbade Christians to engage in usury, the collecting of
interest on loans. One might expect this interdict to have been applied even more
stringently to an institution as ostensibly pious as the Temple. Nevertheless, the
Temple lent money, and collected interest, on a massive scale. In one proven case,
the agreed rate of interest on late payment of debt was 60 percent per year - 17
percent more than Jewish money-lenders were allowed to claim…
"Among biblical texts, they constantly invoked Joshua and Maccabees,
promoting themselves as latterday avatars of the army that toppled the walls of
Jericho, the army that nearly defeated Rome in the years just prior to the Christian
era…
"Amidst the mystique surrounding the Order of the Temple, a number of echoes
and images thus become fused. Joshua's army, the Maccabees, the Grail knights
emerged with yet other historical and/or legendary antecedents - the peers of
Charlemagne, the Arthurian Knights of the Round Table and, especially in the
British Isles, the Red Branch of Ulster. Nor was military prowess the only virtue.
The Templars appear in The Persevalus not just as military men, but also as high
mystical initiates. This is indicative, for the Templars were only too eager to
reinforce the popular image of themselves as magi, as wizards or sorcerers, as
necromancers, as alchemists, as sages privy to lofty arcane secrets. And indeed, it
was precisely this image that rebounded upon them and provided their enemies with
the means of their destruction.
"…there is a well-known Celtic 'cult of the head' - the ancient Celtic belief that
the head contained the soul, and that the heads of vanquished adversaries should
therefore be severed and preserved. Indeed, the severed head is now regarded as
one of the hallmarks of ancient Celtic culture…At the same time, the Templars had
their own 'cult of the head.' Among the charges preferred against them, and one to
which a number of knights pleaded guilty, was that of worshipping a mysterious
severed head some-times known as 'Baphomet'…
"In the list of charges drawn up by the Inquisition against the Templars on 12
August 1308, there appears the following:

"Item, that in each province they had idols, namely heads…

"Item, that they adored these idols…
"Item, that they said that the head could save them...
"Item, that [it could] make riches…
"Item, that it made the trees flower.
"Item, that [it made] the land germinate…" (106:49, 48, 91, 79)

Notwithstanding the patently ignoble character of medieval knights, Focus on the Family
sponsored the following promotional material for Lewis' book:

Raising a Modern-Day Knight: A Father's Role in Guiding His Son to Authentic

Manhood by Robert Lewis
John Coale…7/13/97, rating =10:
Fathers - Join the Knights of the Round Table

"Out of the Dark Ages rose noble characters to preserve and maintain law,
justice, and social order. They became gentle men, men of valor, principled men-
Knights. All knights swore an oath to and lived by a code of conduct: loyalty,
 Knights. All knights swore an oath to and lived by a code of conduct: loyalty,
chivalry, honesty, generosity, unselfish service, dedicated to justice, with Biblical
principles of absolute right and wrong, and obedience to God. A knight who broke
his oath was charged with treason for betraying the order of knighthood. These
ideals combined with the well-defined mentoring process made a boy into a knight.
By age eight, a boy left his mother's care and became a page, learning the
rudiments of knighthood under a mentor. By age 14, he became a squire, a knight's
servant, while perfecting his skills through discipline and hard work. When he
turned 21, he was eligible for knighthood. His ceremony was memorable--a ritual
cleansing, ceremonial dress, a day of fasting and a night of prayer, confession,
communion, a review of his moral, religious, social, and military duties, and,
finally, a question. For what purpose do you desire to enter the order? If it be
riches, to take your ease, and be held in honor without doing honor to knighthood,
you are unworthy of it.
"Now image your son going through this knightly process to attain Biblical
manhood. Yes, it can be done. For fathers, Robert Lewis outlines a practical guide
to teach and live these ideals, mentoring your son in the process to become a
knight. What is a Man? What are his responsibilities, his beliefs, his behavior, and
his goals? When does a boy become a man in our society? When he gets his
driver's license, joins the Army, takes a woman to bed, or financially provides for
himself? First, Raising a Modern-Day Knight provides a vision for manhood. It
characterizes a man who rejects passivity, accepts responsibility, leads
courageously, and expects the greater reward-God's reward. Second, it defines a
Biblical code of conduct: loyalty (Hos 6:6), servant-leadership (Mat 20:26-27),
kindness (Pro 19:22), humility (Phil 2:3), purity (1 Tim 4:12), honesty (Eph 4:25),
self-discipline (1 Tim 4:7-8), excellence (1 Cor 9:24), integrity (Pro 10:9), and
perseverance (Gal 6:9). Finally, it establishes a superior cause to work towards
which can only be satisfied in Jesus Christ.
"By celebrating the stages of training with ceremony, a father reinforces the
process. Through godly example, teachable moments, inspiring stories, and positive
affirmations, a father helps his young knight discover a will to obey God, to
employ God's gifts, and to respect women. Are you ready to be a knightly example
for your son? Work for the King and become His knight. Pass it on to your son. A
righteous man who walks in integrity-how blessed are his sons after him. (Pro
20:7)
"Highly Recommended for small groups of men to create a round table of their
own."

THE GLOBAL ROUND TABLE

According to Messiah and the Second Coming, the concept of King Arthur's Round Table was
based on the Last Supper of Jesus Christ and His disciples:

"King Arthur founded the Round Table, which legend dramatically declared was
symbolically the same table present at the Last Supper. A high spiritual power
wrote the name of the knight who should sit in each chair. Each knight must pass
certain tests of valor before he could occupy a chair at the table. Spiritually every
aspirant to the holy life is tested before being permitted to enter into the activities
of the special inner circle. The chair remains vacant until the perfect knight appears,
portrayed by Sir Galahad who said, 'It is here that I must renounce all things in
order that I may gain all.' The true test of one questing for Christed Consciousness."
(p.99)
 (p.99)

Round Table conferences are common throughout the globalist network and are also becoming
popular among the ecumenically-minded denominations of the apostate church. The Call To
Renewal is a coalition of various Christian and Catholic denominations and ministries that have
appointed themselves "Christians for a New Political Vision." In April of 1997, The Call to
Renewal sponsored a "Christian Roundtable on Poverty and Welfare Reform" in which religious
leaders discussed the role of church and state in overcoming poverty:

"On Saturday, April 26, Call to Renewal will convene a roundtable initiating
dialogue among a broad cross-section of Christian leaders about the crisis now
facing America's poor, and what the Church will do about it. 'The Church Steps
Forward: A Christian Roundtable on Poverty and Welfare Reform' will take place
in Philadelphia in conjunction with the Presidents' Summit for America's Future."

Following this conference, The Call to Renewal went to work creating an ecumenical network
of regional roundtables across the U.S.

"We will create a new federated network that will include covenanted, affiliated
organizations, local "tables," congregations, and individuals . . . As convener Jim
Wallis and field organizer Rev. Emory Searcy Jr. travel around the country, these
new tables are already forming. New alliances are being built between groups that
historically have not worked together...The Pentecost activities this spring will be
an opportunity to announce the formation of these new tables around the country.
Following special worship services in local congregations, public events will
proclaim the beginning of a new Call to Renewal table."

Also on April 26, 1997, some 4,500 delegates attended the Philadelphia Summit on America's
Future, which was convened by President Clinton and chaired by former Joint Chiefs of Staff
chairman Gen. Colin Powell. President Clinton has been affiliated with the three leading New
World Order organizations: the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission, and
the Bilderbergers. Colin Powell is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, which is a
virtual showcase of roundtable discussion groups.

The authors of Messiah & the Second Coming conclude their discussion of King Arthur and the
Knights of the Round Table in a chapter titled "The Holy Grail" with the prediction of a global
round table:

"The future world Round Table is being created now in the etheric realms. The
symbolic golden round table of King Arthur will eventually manifest on earth
where varieties of leaders, political, scientific, spiritual, from all nations of the
world, will dedicate their lives to international objectives for the benefit of all,
above nationalism, above religionism, above personality, for the benefit of all
peoples. The spiritual unity of nations a true sister/brotherhood of humanity
encompassing universal principles of unconditional love and sharing, is coming to
bloom." (p.103)

When this celestial Round Table manifests on earth, it will be chaired by a Merovingian
descendant of King Arthur who was the fabled Guardian of the Holy Grail during his particular
era of history. Another New Age book titled, The Light Shall Set You Free, recalling King
Arthur's mandate at Glastonbury, confirms that England will be the center for world
transformation..
 transformation..

"Following the death of Jesus, Mary went to England with Joseph of Arimethea.
This established the vortex for Camelot, destined to come forth later in the fifth and
sixth centuries. The Grail was placed in Glastonbury for safekeeping at that time. It
will be through the Grail in England that the energies of transformation and
ascension will be channeled, which eventually will bring the Earth into the Seventh
Golden Age." (45:37)

A REVIVED MEROVINGIAN EMPIRE

This is the megalomaniac ambition of a Revived Merovingian Empire. Perhaps Christians ought
to reconsider the popular doctrines of modern prophecy teachers, who teach that the final beast
system will be a Revived Roman Empire. This error is built upon a faulty exposition of the four
empires represented in Nebuchadnezzar's image in Daniel 2 and the four beasts of Daniel 7,
which are construed as referring to the same world empires. A closer look at Daniel 2, 7 and
Revelation 13 demonstrates otherwise.

Daniel 2:32-42 describes the Babylonian, Persian, Greek and Roman empires. Daniel 2:38
states that the head of gold of Nebuchadnezzar's image was the existing Babylonian Empire. "O
king…Thou art this head of gold."

All of the world empires described in Daniel 7 are future empires. According to verse 17:
"These great beasts, which are four, are four kings, which shall arise out of the earth."

Whereas Dan. 2 identifies 3 future and 1 existing empire (the Babylonian), Daniel 7:3-6 must
refer to four future world empires:

"And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse from one another. The first
was like a LION, and had EAGLE'S wings: I beheld till the wings thereof were
plucked, and it was lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon the feet as a
man, and a man's heart was given to it. And behold another beast, a second, like to
a BEAR, and it raised up itself on one side, and it had three ribs in the mouth of it
between the teeth of it: and they said thus unto it, Arise, devour much flesh. After
this I beheld, and lo another, like a LEOPARD, which had upon the back of it four
wings of a fowl; the beast had also four heads; and dominion was given to it."

Nazi Germany was known for its Panzer (panther or leopard) divisions in World War II, and the
symbol of Communist Russia is the bear which, under Stalin, "devoured much flesh." The
Royal Arms of England displays the Rampant Lion, "made to stand upon the feet as a man,"
which is also a Merovingian symbol. The eagle's wings which were plucked in Daniel 7:4 is an
obvious reference to the United States, whose government from its inception was the vehicle
through which the English Freemasons planned to establish the New World Order. Thus, a
reasonable interpretation of the symbolic beasts or world empires of Daniel 7 places them in the
period immediately preceding "the fourth kingdom upon the earth, which shall be diverse from
all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it down, and break it in pieces."
(v.23)

The beasts of Daniel 7 are also found as the composite beast which John saw rising out of the
sea in his vision described in Revelation 13:1,2. Please recall that the Bistea Neptunis or "beast
of the sea" which is believed to be "ever incarnate in the dynasty of ancient kings" and whose
symbol was a fish, clearly identifies the mystical Merovingian Fisher-Kings, who
blasphemously claim to be of the bloodline of Jesus Christ:

"And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a BEAST RISE UP OUT OF THE
SEA, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon
his heads the name of blasphemy.

"And the beast which I saw was like unto a LEOPARD, and his feet were as the
feet of a BEAR, and his mouth as the mouth of a LION: and the dragon gave him
his power, and his seat and great authority."

Since Revelation 13 is identical to Daniel 7, future kingdoms are also symbolically represented.
And like Daniel 7, Revelation 13 describes in symbols the Merovingian dynasty as the BEAST
THAT RISES UP OUT OF THE SEA. However, modern prophecy teachers have prevented the
identification of beast kingdom as a revived Merovingian Empire by erroneously correlating the
empires of Daniel 7 with those in Daniel 2. This misinterpretation of Daniel 7 has been a
primary factor in perpetuating a general ignorance of the Merovingian conspiracy, insuring that
its direction of world affairs behind the scenes will continue largely unnoticed.

In the place of the proper interpretation of these prophecies, the masses have been led to believe
that a Revived Roman Empire controlled by the Roman Church, will be the final Antichrist
system. Having established this deception and contrived to bring a false interpretation of Bible
prophecy to fulfillment, the stage will be set for the Messiah of the Merovingian dynasty to
vanquish the Pope and his Roman religious system (the Dragon), after which glorious triumph
this false messiah will be crowned upon the throne of the Temple of Jerusalem as "the Christ."

The ubiquitous propaganda of the Rosicrucian network would have the undiscerning believe
that the great end-time battle will be between the noble Merovingian dynasty and a revived
Holy Roman Empire, respectively designated the Phoenix and the Dragon. However, Scripture
treats these two systems as being equally evil and worthy of God's judgment. Revelation 17:16
describes the demise of the harlot church at the hands of the beast: "And the ten horns which
thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate and naked,
and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire."

The destruction of MYSTERY BABYLON in Revelation 17-18 is not the end of the story. The
final battle is fought rather in Revelation 19, which describes the Second Coming of the Lord
Jesus Christ to destroy the real Antichrist, who will be the Merovingian priest-king of the
make-believe Order of Michael-Zakok. Having vanquished the Pope, this vile personage will
rule the world with a modern Merlin the Magician - the counterpart of King Arthur's Sorcerer -
and the Knights of the Global Round Table. Their minions will be the multitudes of Joel's Army
who have been initiated into the mysteries via Freemasonry and its various religious fronts,
which are indoctrinating multitudes with medieval mysticism. The full cast of characters will
conduct their final Crusade against the King of Kings and Lord of Lords in a battle which is
described in Revelation 19:19-21 ~

"And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies,
gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and
against his army. And the beast was taken, and with him the false
prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived
them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped
his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with
brimstone."

By Barbara Aho
INTRODUCTION

Were Christians to understand the anatomy of deception, they would be more apt to recognize
deceivers. The Scriptures tell us that Satan and his ministers actually "transform themselves" into
angels of light, apostles of Christ and ministers of righteousness...

For such are false apostles, deceitful workers, transforming themselves into the
apostles of Christ. And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of
light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the
ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works. II Cor. 11:13-
15

How does this transformation happen? Occult sources state that "transformation" is the outcome of
a series of processes called initiation into the Eastern or Western Mysteries, which Scripture terms
"the depths of Satan" (Rev. 2:24). As the born-again Christian becomes a new creation in Christ
(Acts 7:42-3) and is indwelt by the Holy Spirit (John 14:17), the person who experiences occult
initiation is transformed into a new creature in Satan and is indwelt by one or more devils. We are
told that the adepts and masters—the chosen few who have gone beyond the Lesser Mysteries and
enter the Greater Mysteries—ascend to the very Throne of God and are "deified". Deification, of
course, is only an illusion; however, these high level initiates, having experienced the 'depths of
Satan', are indwelt by a personality that is not their own. And a certain number of these "deified"
men and women have been incarnated by devils who are capable of impersonating a born-again
Christian. Thus possessed by highly intelligent supernatural entities, we find many 'wolves in
sheep's clothing' on the Christian scene who exhibit a "born-again" personality.

Because evil spirits can persuasively masquerade as ministers of righteousness, the elect must look
beyond outward appearances and exercise their spiritual senses to discern between good and evil.
This requires a spiritual perceptivity beyond the low standard exhibited by nominal Christianity,
for Satan creates first-class images for his most valuable ministers, who often become prominent
personalities through image campaigns that are designed expressly to deceive the Christian masses.
The wise Christian will disregard outward appearances and become impersonally objective, putting
a man or woman's doctrine the acid test of Scripture. Moreover, teachings must be analyzed with
careful attention to details and nuances since false doctrines are often framed in an artifice of truths
and half-truths designed to fool and entrap the masses of shallow Christians.

In their book, The Trojan Horse: The New Age Infiltration of the Church, Samantha Smith and
Brenda Scott make a profoundly important statement:

“In our ongoing study of mysticism/occultism/spiritualism, we often find that the

authors deny what they are actually teaching.” (24:14)

Because few people are immune to the very sophisticated mind control techniques in operation
today—and this includes Christians—most fail to recognize this widely used tactic: A New Ager
in Christian garb will promote an occult doctrine such as pantheism or theosophy or gnosticism or
astrology, but interject a paragraph or two, or even a chapter, condemning the very practice he or
she is promoting. Usually, a distinction is made between the *occult* form of the false doctrine
and the *Christian* version, which is “of God”, while the occult version is “Satan's counterfeit” of
God's work. This rationalization seems to sell a lot of false doctrine as we observed in the false
revival, where barking and roaring were defended as manifestations of the Holy Spirit, which
Satan counterfeits in New Age cults.

Using this line of reasoning, Dr. D. James Kennedy has built a case for “Biblical astrology” in his
book, The Real Meaning of the Zodiac. This surprisingly popular book is based on The Witness of
the Stars by E.W. Bullinger and Joseph Seiss' A Gospel in the Stars, published in 1893 and 1882
respectively. A 19th-century English classicist and linguist, Frances Rolleston, had previously
popularized the theory of a 'gospel in the stars' with her book, Mazzaroth: The Constellations,
published in 1863. Except for Miss Rolleston, all were Protestant ministers—Bullinger was an
Anglican minister, Seiss a Lutheran preacher and Kennedy is a Presbyterian minister.

It seems that E.W. Bullinger's book met with widespread disapproval among Christians in his
day. In E. W. Bullinger: A Biography, Juanita S. Carey reveals that discerning Christians
recognized the astrology promoted in The Witness of the Stars and the book was widely
condemned. Bullinger's response to his critics was to straightaway produce a book on another form
of divination—occult numerology!

“In 1894, a year after publication of The Witness of the Stars, Robert Brown, himself
an author on biblical subjects, wrote a booklet called A Reply to Dr. Bullinger's So-
Called 'Witness of the Stars.' He opened with some of the major criticisms being
leveled against the book:..

“'...In a later and larger work...entitled 'The Witness of the Stars,' I am

sorry to say, that the Doctor has advanced views, which are not
only...unsound but are far more dangerous than those I have already
referred to: for in this Book he has taught doctrines which certainly savour
of heresy; if indeed they be not in themselves, as many even think,
distinctly heretical...
"But the great evil of the Book, lies...in its teaching that we have IN
THE STARS another revelation from God, which the Doctor asserts is a
'pure and undefiled,' and, therefore, as authoritative and true, as the
revelation which we have in the Bible itself; and as the so-called science
of Astrology is again rapidly coming to the front, and has many adherents,
 in these days, my solemn conviction is that this work will greatly tend to
foster and extend this abomination...

“Seemingly unruffled by the barrage of criticism, Dr. Bullinger's only answer was to
come out within the year with another major research work. Number in Scripture: It's
Scriptural Design and Spiritual Significance...” - 972:102-3

All of the so-called 'Christian' books on astrology present the argument, which Kennedy admits is
a theory, that the ancient Zodiac was God's heavenly presentation of the message of salvation to
the ancient world, however, Satan counterfeited God's original message in the stars for his own
purposes by corrupting Babylonian and modern astrology:

“Therefore, from the very beginning God has given a story of His salvation from
which have come most of the ancient mythologies and ancient traditions. The signs
are describing the salvation that would be wrought in Christ and was given by God to
Adam in the Garden of Eden. As mentioned before, this is called the protevangelium
(or the first evangel, the first Gospel), which was the beginning of the revelation of
Jesus Christ to the world, i.e., that the seed of the woman would destroy the seed of
the serpent...
“We are told in Genesis that God put the stars in the heavens for signs, and these
signs convey a message. The theory we are presenting is that God revealed that
message to Adam and to his sons and grandsons and that message has gone into all of
the civilizations of the world and has been passed down through the centuries.
“At the time of the building of the tower of Babel, this was corrupted into astrology.
Thus, instead of these being signs of God and His salvation by which we should
worship God, they were changed into deities, and people began to worship the sun, the
moon, the planets, and the stars...
“It is well that you have nothing to do with modern astrology whatsoever because of
its corruption and satanic aspects. But in order that you might appreciate what God has
done, let us look briefly at the zodiac, its history and the birth of astrology...
ASTROLOGY CONDEMNED
“As we have seen the Bible condemns astrology very strongly. [quotes Isaiah
47:13-14]
“Instead of being simply the story of Christ, people took the heavenly signs to be
deities which have an influence on our lives...
“The Bible tells us we are not to consort with astrologers; we are not to consult
them; we are not to have anything to do with astrology. And yet, originally, there was
this great revelation of God, of His glory, and of His salvation in what has come to be
known as the zodiac.”
(872:14-16)

Did the ancient world really view the stars as God's message of salvation through Jesus Christ?
According to Prof. Lana Rings of the University of Texas, the ancients read into the stars the
religion of the Great Mother Goddess:

“Women and snakes have been linked for millenia, even much earlier than Adam
and Eve... these female images...were viewed as representations of some form of
deity...
“In those days the sky was their holy book, their 'Bible,' if you will... And the
ancients knew how to 'read the sky.' 'When you can see the Goddess Sotis just before
sunup, the Nile will flood.' This meant that when the star we now call Sirius (and the
 Egyptians called the Goddess Sotis) appears just before dawn, it is a certain time of
the year, and the Nile will soon flood, because the Nile floods at that time of the year...
The sky was also the site of their religion, for they put their religious stories into the
night constellations. Sotis was Isis, the Wisest of the Wise, the One before all others.
And the constellations came from how they saw the position of the stars in relationship
to each other.”(1082)

Richard Hinckley Allen confirms this in Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning, considered the
basic book of its field. Allen informs us that the study of the stars in remote antiquity gave rise to
the myths and legends of pagan cultures. As ancient man looked to nature to determine the identity
of its God, star-gazing did not lead him to the true God, nor to an understanding of salvation, but
to the god of nature, Pan.

“It may be thought that too much attention has been paid to stellar mythology...but it
serves to elucidate the literary history of the stars, and the age of its stories commands
at least our interest. Indeed, we should remember that the stars were largely the source
of these stories,--Eusebius, early in our 4th century, asserting in his Praeparatio
Evangelica:
“'The ancients believed that the legends about Osiris and Isis, and all other
mythological fables [of a kindred sort], have reference either to the Stars, their
configuration, their risings and their settings, etc.'
“And Proctor wrote in his Myths and Marvels of Astronomy that the chief charm of
this study 'does not reside in the wonders revealed to us by science, but in the lore and
legends connected with its history, the strange fancies with which in old times it has
been associated, the half-forgotten myths to which it has given birth.
“Yet these myths, old as the present forms of some of them may be, are but modern
and trivial when one goes back to the dim past to their probable fountainhead among
the Himalayas and on the Ganges, or along the banks of the Euphrates, where the
recent study of mythology discovers their origin in serious connection with the most
ancient of earthly religions, long antedating Moses,--'attempted explanations of natural
phenomena,' drawn from observations on the earth and in the sky of powers of nature
and of nature's God.” (927:ix)

The First Astrologer

But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god,
which ye made to yourselves. Amos 5:26

Dr. Kennedy presents no Scriptural evidence that God taught the Zodiac to Adam and, by
extension, to future civilizations through the godly line of Seth and Enoch or that the corrupt use
of the Zodiac began at the Tower of Babel. To the contrary, there is reason to believe that
astrology began with Cain, “who was of that wicked one” (I Jn.3:12), and whose legacy to future
civilizations through his ungodly descendants may have included worship of the stars. Remember
that Cain's descendants developed along the lines of Lamech, the first polygamist and a murderer,
and his sons—Tubal-Cain who was the alchemical 'Vulcan' of Atlantis, and Jubal, who invented
music for idol worship. (Gen.4:17-22)

“As pointed out by Laurence Gardner in 'Genesis of the Grail Kings', the biblical
Tubal-cain (who is revered in scientific Freemasonry) was the great Vulcan of
Mesopotamia during the reign of Egypt's King Narmer (c.3200 BC). He was a
prominent alchemist and the greatest metallurgist of his age, while his step-brother
 Jubal was said to be 'the ancestor of all who handle the lyre and pipe' - whence the
word Jubilee, meaning 'a blast of trumpets' or 'to lead with triumph or pomp'. The
ritual connection in pleasing the gods with brass horns and trumpets is very apparent
in this era and a later association between angels and the medieval buisine (long
trumpet) probably originates from this time.”(740)

The prophet Amos identified the star which the Israelites worshipped in their apostasy as Chiun,
which according to Strong's Concordance was the planetary god, Saturn:

But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your
god, which ye made to yourselves. Amos 5:26

3594 Kiyuwn {kee-yoon'} from

3559; n pr dei AV - Chiun 1; 1 Chiun = “an image” or “pillar” 1) probably a
statue of the Assyrian-Babylonian god of the planet Saturn and used to symbolise
Israelite apostasy

Both Chiun and Saturn are identified as Cain in Madame Blavatsky's foundational work, The Secret
Doctrine:

“The god of time was Chium in Egypt, or Saturn...and Chium is the same as Cain.”
(897:390)

[Note: The Theosophical Glossary presents Chium as an alternative spelling of Chiun:

“Chium, Chiun kiyyun, khiyun (Hebrew)” (898)]

Indeed, the Hebrew name of Cain (Qayin) is similar to Chiun (Kiyuwn):

7014 Qayin {kah'-yin} the same as 7013 (with a play upon the affinity to 07069);
TWOT - 2017,2016 AV - Cain 17, Kenite 1; 18 n pr m Cain = “possession” 1)
eldest son of Adam and Eve and the first murderer having murdered his brother
Abel n pr gent Kenite = “smiths” 2) the tribe from which the father-in-law of
Moses was a member and which lived in the area between southern Palestine and
the mountains of Sinai

Since Chiun and Cain are linked together with Saturn, the planetary name for Satan, it is
conceivable that the mark of Cain was the mark of Saturn, a six-pointed star. According to the
Masonic authors of The Hiram Key, the Kenites who claim to have descended from Cain wore the
mark of the Tau Cross on their foreheads. “TAU... [is the] letter of Saturn” stated Israel Regardie
in The Golden Dawn. (153:215) The Chaldean number for Saturn is 666, suggesting that the mark
of Cain was a prototype of the mark of the beast—the six-pointed star received by those who will
worship the god Saturn during the Golden Age of Saturn, the occult millennium (which will be
shortened to 3 1/2 years).

Confirming our thesis, some Jewish sources say the mark of Cain was the Seal of Solomon or Star
of David. And so we find evidence in Scripture which contradicts the very premise of D. James
Kennedy's false “gospel in the stars” and affirms that, from the very outset, astrology involved
worship of the hosts of heaven—and that it was Cain, the first astrologer, who taught the worship
of nature to future civilizations through his ungodly descendants.

A Circle of Animals
 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the
glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible
man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. -
Romans 1:23

Probably the most famous astronomer of the 18th century was Sir William Herschel (1738-1822),
who discovered the planet Uranus, many new nebulae and stars, and was also the first person to
correctly describe the form of our Galaxy, the Milky Way. Herschel complained of the Egyptian
chart of stars, “The heavens are scribbled over with interminable snakes.”

Kennedy's incredibly blasphemous book states that the Zodiac presents the way of salvation, based
on the word zoad which, in Sanskrit, means 'a way'. The word 'zodiac', however, is derived from
the Greek word zoon which means “animal” from which comes the word zodiakos, meaning “a
circle of animals.” For his purposes, Kennedy prefers the esoteric (gnostic), rather than the exoteric
(obvious), meaning of the word:

“This is often described as a circle of animals. At a deep level we see the zodiac as the
path, or the way, and it is the way of salvation revealed in the heavens. But that is not
really what the word zodiac means. Rather, it comes from a primitive root, zoad,
which comes from the Hebrew sodi, and in Sanskrit means: 'A Way,' 'A Path,' 'A
Step.' At a deeper level we see the zodiac picturing The Path, The Way of salvation
revealed beautifully for us in the heavens.” (872:16)

The Real Meaning of the Zodiac reveals the author's working knowledge of astrology—the occult's
false gospel—and ancient mythology, the pagan pantheon of false gods. D. James Kennedy
glorifies the ancient pagan gods depicted in the signs of the Zodiac as heroic types and figures of
Jesus Christ. His antecedent, E.W. Bullinger, stated in the Witness of the Stars, “These ancient
star-pictures reveal this Coming One. They set forth 'the sufferings of Christ and the glory that
should follow'.”

According to our so-called 'biblical astrologers', the various houses of the zodiac—personified by
wolves, unicorns, sea-goats, phoenixes and pagan gods such as Hercules, Apollo and Zeus—are
said to be types and figures of Jesus Christ and His redemptive work. For example, the “sacred
fish”, the dolphin, is associated with divine powers in the New Age belief system; nevertheless,
advocates of the false gospel in the stars make the astonishing claim that the dolphin represents
Christ in His resurrection. Aquarius, the Water-Bearer, was originally Ganymede, the homosexual
lover of Zeus, but Kennedy and his antecedents maintain that Aquarius is a type of the Holy Spirit!
Capricorn, a half-goat/half-fish representation of the 'lusty god Pan' is acclaimed to be a 'beautiful
representation' of Jesus Christ. The androgynous Gemini twins picture the dual nature of Jesus, say
Kennedy et al. And Pegasus, the winged-horse who carries the thunderbolt of Zeus, is Christ as the
first horseman of the Apocalypse. And so on and so forth ad nauseum.

Outrage is an appropriate response for the Christian reader who must endure his Lord, Jesus Christ,
likened to the beasts and monsters and perverted gods of pagan mythology. The only explanation
for such wickedness can be that that Kennedy is promoting another Christ and another gospel—the
false gospel of ancient heathen cultures who awaited the return of their false Christ—be he Horus
of the Egyptians, the Babylonian Tammuz, Saturn of Rome, Quetzalcoatl, god of the Aztec and
Mayan cultures, Viracocha of the Incas, King Arthur of Great Britain, and the myriad of other
supreme deities of pagan traditions—ancient gods who are expected to return from their celestial
abode to establish a Golden Age of peace and prosperity on earth.
Science, Falsely So-Called

O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane

and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called: Which
some professing have erred concerning the faith. Grace be with thee.
Amen. I Tim 6:20-21

Although astrology is promoted as a branch of astronomy, it is really a pseudo-science based on

ancient misconceptions about the design of the universe. Michael P. Wright argues that “the
support of a belief system so irrational as astrology is certainly not the work of science,”
nevertheless the ancient superstitions of Babylon and Egypt have been revived and are now the
basis of a hugely erroneous belief that mankind is entering a New Age of peace and prosperity:

“The idea that we are entering a 'New Age' is rooted in astrology, a pseudo-science
developed in Babylonia about 2500 years ago. Ancient astrologers observed over time
a slow apparent shifting in the positions of the twelve major constellations they had
identified, and believed that a significant change in the course of human history would
begin at those times when a different constellation moved into alignment with the sun
at the vernal equinox. Each astrological 'age' is supposed to last about 2100 years.
“Contemporary New Age devotees are celebrating the notion that we are now
entering the 'Age of Aquarius,' because this constellation is coming to occupy the
position formerly held by Pisces. The idea was popularized by the 1968 musical Hair.
“Of course, astronomers know that the movement of the constellations in space has
nothing to do with the way they are viewed from earth. The whole system of astrology
was constructed on the basis of the erroneous belief that the earth was the center of the
universe, and the heavenly bodies all revolved around it. In reality, the apparent shift
in the position of the constellations is caused by the precession of the earth's axis.
“One of the ancient thinkers who advanced astrology was the Egyptian Ptolemy,
who lived in the second century A.D. Ptolemy believed that the earth was at the center
of the universe, and that the planets, sun, and stars revolved around it. It is from
Ptolemy that the phrase Ptolemic conception of the universe is derived. The idea of an
earth-centered universe was the official dogma of the Catholic Church up until the
16th century, when it was challenged by Copernicus, who argued that the earth
revolved around the sun.
“Famous in the 17th century for defending the Copernican view was Galileo, who
was accused by the Catholic Church of heresy and condemned to house arrest, for life,
at his villa near Florence. He was also forbidden to publish. And herein lies a great
irony: Christianity is seen by New Age believers as part of the 'Piscean establishment,'
which they expect to be overthrown in the Age of Aquarius. Yet by virtue of their
belief in astrology, developed in alignment with the Ptolemic conception of the
universe, the New Agers are in tacit alliance with the Catholic Inquisition's
persecution of Galileo! But no problem. The postmodernist mind is not uncomfortable
with contradiction.” (1063)

D. James Kennedy presumes his readers ignorance when he claims, “If you go back in
time,...regardless of how far back you go,...Nearly all nations had the same twelve signs,
representing the same twelve things, placed in the same order.” (872:8) According to the
Christian Research Institute, this is hardly the case:

“Though GIS continues to hold a certain fascination for a number of Christians,

some of whom tout its alleged apologetic value, it remains fraught with significant
 weaknesses that deliver a critical blow to its overall soundness. Among its
problems are the following:
“1) There is no uniform zodiac constellation. Some claim there are twenty-four
zodiac signs, while others count eight, ten, or fourteen. The oldest Babylonian
charts do not even contain the complete zodiac constellation. And unlike the
popular Western view, the Chinese interpreted their constellation charts with
characters such as the rabbit, mouse, and dog. Moreover, the zodiac signs do not
even appear above the Arctic Circle (66 degrees latitude)—which means that is
there no 'Gospel in the Stars' for many Eskimos, Siberians, Greenlanders, and
Scandinavians. This, of course, poses a serious dilemma for GIS, according to
which the stars serve as a witness to all people.
“2) There is no uniform message behind the stars. As in the case of astrology,
the star-formed zodiac signs can be assigned whatever meaning the interpreter
decides upon; the purported messages behind the signs are completely arbitrary. In
their interpretation of the constellations, for example, the Jews did not include any
reference to the fall of Adam and Eve or their future seed who would become
humankind’s Deliverer. They believed the sign of Scorpio represented Israel as a
scorpion, drastically differing from Bullinger’s understanding of Scorpio as a sign
depicting the conflict between the Deliverer and the serpent.” (1075)

Astrology was rejected by the early Church but revived during the Renaissance and Rosicrucian
Enlightenment. In the Renaissance, the Roman Church adopted the Zodiac signs as heavenly
representations of Christ, a pernicious teaching which is contaminating Christianity today:

"During the early middle ages, the early Christian hostility towards astrology and
the decline of education in Greek led to the near-disappearance of astrology. It was
re-introduced during the twelfth century when a great variety of Greek
philosophical and scientific texts were translated from Arabic. Of course, Arabic
language commentaries and original works were translated as well. The fifteenth
and sixteenth centuries saw the first translations directly from Greek, notably
Ptolemy's Tetrabiblos, and the Renaissance of the fifteenth through seventeenth
centuries became one of the great ages of astrology. Astrology declined, however,
with the rise of modern science in the late seventeenth century." - 896 ("Astrology
In Medieval And Renaissance Europe")

As for the so-called 'Christian' Zodiac, The Secret Zodiac: The Hidden Art in Medieval Astrology
by Fred Gettings brings to light the importation of the Zodiac into the Roman Church during the
Renaissance:

“Those who are not familiar with the hermetic and occult basis of much early
Christian symbolism may be surprised to find a zodiac within a church. The majority
of moderns tend to think of the zodiac and related astrological ideas as being somehow
pagan. However, the truth is that the zodiac, and its attendant astrological symbolism,
was to some extent 'Christianized' in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries...
“The fact is...that the zodiacal symbolism, like that of the star-lore of the Arabian
astrology, was thoroughly Christianized by the late twelfth century, and was used to
quite remarkable ends in may different mediaeval and proto-Renaissance works of art.
However, this 'Christianized' version of astrology should not itself disguise the fact
that, in terms of ordinary history at least, the zodiac, planets and planisphere were
originally pagan, and directly linked with the initiate of the Mystery Schools.”
(911:16)
 Discredited as unscientific during the Age of Reason, astrology revived in the 19th century
occult revival and became respectable, especially among intellectuals disillusioned with modern
science.

"Astrology died at the end of the 17th century with the rise of modern science.
Modern astronomers were and are quite hostile to a rival. When Bouché-Leclercq
wrote, in the late 19th century, the beginnings of a modern revival were barely
visible. It became popular once more in the aftermath to WW I and the revulsion
toward that disaster, brought about by modern science and technology, many
thought. Robert Graves was not the only one to conclude that anything might be
true, except what you read in newspapers. The techniques of modern astrology were
partly taken from reprints of Renaissance astrologers, such as Lilly, partly brought
to Europe from India by such groups as the Theosophical Society." - 896

Preparing the Way of the Antichrist

The promo on the back cover of The Real Meaning of the Zodiac reveals that, despite his Christian
gloss on the Zodiac and disingenuous caveats concerning modern astrology, D. James Kennedy is
looking to this pseudo-science to forecast the future of the world:

“Startling discoveries related by eminent theologian Dr. D. James Kennedy prove that
God created the Zodiac! God intended the stars to foretell the future of the world.
Discover what Dr. Kennedy calls biblical astrology or the Gospel in the stars. Reading
this book: The Real Meaning of the Zodiac, just might give you insight into your
future.” (872)

According to J.R. Church, founder and director of the “Prophecy in the News Ministry,” the first
four signs of the Zodiac prophesied the birth of Christ, the middle four signs foretold the Church
Age, and the last four signs expound events yet future as recorded in the book of Revelation. In
their program on the “Signs and Seasons,” Gary Stearman prefaced his comments with assurances
that the Zodiac accurately foretells future Messianic events:

Stearman: “...In other words, the Lord is saying, Do you know about the Messiah, the
redemption, do you know how it's going to happen? Can you figure it out ahead of
time? Can you see into the future as I can? Of course the answer is no...but we have
just enough information to understand the workings of the thing.”
J.R Church: “Let us start with Virgo...because God said, Let the lights in the heavens
be for signs and for seasons... Let's briefly go through the signs. Virgo speaks of
Bethlehem, so from Virgo to Leo, the twelve constellations, we have the spring and
summer... Everything begins with Virgo bringing forth the son of God. In Virgo,
Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius we see the first advent of Christ, His death, burial and
resurrection, His battle against Satan. In Capricorn, Aquarius, Pisces and Aries we see
the Church Age. The head of the goat, the body of the fish—Jesus is the sacrificial
goat and out of the head of the fish comes the body which is the Church, the symbol
of the fish. And then, of course, there's Aquarius pouring out the Holy Spirit. That's
the day of Pentecost. And the two fish with their tails tied together represent the saints,
the Old Testament saints and New Testament saints. And they're all under the control
of Aries the Lamb who is the Lord Jesus Christ. Following that is Cetus who rises up,
the world government, and after that follows Taurus, Gemini, Cancer and Leo, and
those are the second advent of Christ. The Judge is coming. Gemini represents the
 rapture, Cancer represents the resurrection, and Leo, the Lion, is seen jumping on the
Hydra, the many headed dragon. That's all the book of Revelation...” (1053)

BACK TO EGYPT

Ye shall henceforth return no more that way. - Deuteronomy 17:16

Having deceived his readers as to the real meaning of the word 'zodiac', D. James Kennedy
informs them that the key to understanding this way of salvation is the sphinx:

“I know it will surprise you, but the sphinx actually unlocks the mystery of the
zodiac.” (872:19)

Dr. Kennedy does not make clear that he is referring to the Great Sphinx located in Egypt. This
revelation would at once alert many a Christian to the unscriptural foundation of The Real Meaning
of the Zodiac, for God has forbidden his people to return to Egypt for their spiritual resources:

When thou art come unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, and shalt
possess it, and shalt dwell therein, and shalt say, I will set a king over me, like as all
the nations that are about me; ...he shall not multiply horses to himself, nor cause the
people to return to Egypt, to the end that he should multiply horses: forasmuch as the
LORD hath said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way. - Deut. 17:14-
16

As the Great Sphinx was built upon the earthly sands of the Sahara Desert, those who subscribe to
the false gospel in the stars are building their spiritual houses on a foundation of sand, rather than
the solid rock of the Word of God.

Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots,
because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look
not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! Isaiah 31:1

Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him
unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the
floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was
founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth
them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that
house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. - Matt. 8:24-27

The mystery religion of ancient Egypt was received from Hermes Trismegistus, a demi-god posing
as Enoch escaped from the judgment of the Flood. Hermes' dictum “as above, so below” became
the supreme law of the land of Egypt so that (man being a microcosm of the universe) whatever
occurred in the heavens was regarded as the blueprint of the gods for man's activity on earth. J.R.
Church and Gary Stearman have Christianized this occult concept for their audiences, being
careful to hedge their teaching of the Hermetic axiom “as above, so below” with the typical
denial, lest they be found guilty of promoting astrology:

Gary Stearman: “...the Lord is explaining to Job the connection between heaven and
earth. He asks some questions. He says, 'Canst thou bring for Mazzaroth in his season?
 ', Mazzaroth being the Hebrew word for the celestial calendar—the calendar, the
Zodiac, the twelve signs. ...And the next verse is is fascinating: 'Knowest thou the
ordinances of heaven? Canst thou set the dominion thereof?' ...What the Lord is
saying is that the ordinances of heaven determine the dominion of the earth. There is a
connection between heaven and earth and it's linked to the north which exactly
matches what we've been saying up to now.”
J.R. Church: “Now we are not talking about being able to look at a horoscope and
determine the dominions of the earth. What we are talking about is looking at the signs
and God's original prophetic message in those signs and how that relates to the
dominion of the earth.” (1053)

According to Hermetic philosophy, the Great Sphinx and the Pyramids at Giza represented God
and His Word to mankind respectively. “The Sphinx at Giza is a representation of God on Earth.
God in his heaven is the Sphinx Super Giant situated alongside Orion, the Word of God. God on
Earth is the Sphinx situated next to the Pyramids at Giza...” (903:1) Moreover, the name of the
Creator God—this Celestial Sphinx which the earthly Sphinx represents—was Hu, which implies
the 'deification of man' teaching: that hu-mans are gods. Hu was depicted in the form of a lion to
convey his supreme power:

“The Celestial Sphinx is the Creator and Architect of the Universe. The Celestial
Sphinx is God and the ancient name for God was Hu... 'Hu' is the Word or utterance
which means 'God'... The body of the remote Ancient Egyptian God of Creation, Hu,
was deliberately leonine, as the superbly crafted lion was a symbol of Power and
Strength. The lion was omnipotent. Even today the lion is referred to as 'King of the
Beasts'.” (903:2)

It is under the paw of the leonine Great Sphinx in Egypt that a Hall of Records contains the
ancient records of the pre-flood civilization, called Atlantis by the occult societies who are
engineering global events so that mankind can return to this utopian era. The famous psychic Edgar
Cayce (1877-1945) prophesied that the Hall of Records will be 'discovered' just before the Second
Coming of Christ. According to The Message of the Sphinx, Cayce made this prediction in a
trance; however, it is more likely that the prophesies of Cayce and other New Age seers are self-
fulfilling prophecies or blueprints for action:

“'References and clues [which] indicate Egypt as a repository for records -

records of Atlantis and ancient Egypt during the time of Ra-Ta, which may some
day be found... that a vast underground repository was established containing a
library of wisdom from the lost civilization of Atlantis: 'This in position lies, as the
sun rises from the waters, the line of shadow (or light) falls between the paws of
the Sphinx... There is a chamber or passage from the right forepaw [of the Sphinx]
to this entrance of the record chamber...'
“According to the [Edgar Cayce] readings, the Hall of Records is to be
discovered and re-entered when 'the time has been fulfilled' — which, Cayce
suggested, would be at or just before the close of the twentieth century, perhaps in
1998. The readings allude frequently to Old and New Testaments of the Bible,
certain numerous references to Jesus, and depict the rediscovery of the Hall of
Records as being linked in some way to a series of events that will prelude the
'Second Coming' of Christ.” (132:88)

Lambert Dolphin?
 A major figure involved in the exploration of the Great Sphinx at Giza was Lambert Dolphin,
who directed the Stanford Research Institute excavation of the Sphinx. In 1977, this pseudo-
Christian minister negotiated funding from the Edgar Cayce Foundation for the SRI project at
Giza. Lambert Dolphin's activities are chronicled in The Message of the Sphinx:

“Back in Egypt in 1977, a year after the Viking images had first reached the
Earth, Mark Lehner [A.R.E.’s ‘man’ at Giza] made contact with NASA’s Dr.
Lambert T. Dolphin, leader of the Stanford Research Institute project at the Sphinx
...
“Later in 1977 Lambert Dolphin traveled to Virginia Beach to negotiate funding
from the Edgar Cayce organization for a proposed new SRI project at Giza... In
(1983) ‘The Independent Mars Project’ was set up in the United States by Richard
Hoagland, a former NASA consultant, and Lambert Dolphin…” (132:313-14)

The Message of the Sphinx is that mankind will be going 'back to the future' to another Golden Age
like the pre-Flood civilization, of which Egypt was supposedly a close replica. Note that Graham
Hancock and Robert Bauval, authors of the Masonic book, The Message of the Sphinx, use the
term 'message in the stars' to describe the astrological signs in the Zodiac used by the Egyptians for
divination:

“Guardian of the ancient mysteries, the keeper of secrets... for thousands of years
the Great Sphinx of Egypt has gazed toward the east, its eyes focused on eternity,
reading a message in the stars that mankind has long forgotten. And today, as our
civilization stands poised at the end of a great cycle, it is a message that beckons
insistently to be understood.
“All the clues are in place. Geology and archeo-astronomy have already indicated
that the lion-headed Sphinx may be vastly older than Egyptologists currently believe,
dating not from 2500 B.C., but from 10,500 B.C.—the beginning of the astrological
Age of Leo. And...the three pyramids of Giza,...were a precise map of the three stars
of Orion's belt...
“...Using sophisticated computer simulations of ancient skies, they unravel the
riddle of the Sphinx... Their discoveries led the authors to this question: Does mankind
have a rendezvous with destiny—a rendezvous not in the future, but in the distant
past, at a precise place and time? The secrets can be kept no longer...” (132 back
cover)

According to D. James Kennedy, The Real Meaning of the Zodiac as revealed by the Sphinx in
Egypt, is that the 'Biblical Zodiac' begins with the sign of Virgo, who represents the Virgin Mary,
chosen vessel of the promised Seed, and ends with the sign of Leo the Lion, who represents
'Christ' trampling on His enemies. Recall that the astrological sign of Leo also launched the
building of the lion-headed Sphinx of Egypt. Specifically, the forepaw of the lion is mentioned in
relation to Kennedy's 'Christ' who destroys his enemies:

“The chief star [of the constellation Leo, The Lion] means 'He That Tears Asunder.'
And God represents Himself in that way... The chief star, situated in the lion's breast,
whence its mighty paws proceed, bears the name of Regal, which means 'The Treading
Underfoot,' That is precisely what the feet of the lion can do. In fact, Joseph Seiss,
author of The Gospel in the Stars, tells us that the forepaw of the lion can exert the
same force as dropping a twenty-five point hammer. With one blow of its paw it can
break the backbone of an ox or crush the skull of a horse. With one blow its claws can
cut four inches in depth on another beast. No wonder man is ill-equipped to fight with
 a lion!..
“In this last of the constellations, the feet of the lion are about to land on the head or
neck of the serpent... In this final sign of Leo it is...clear and incontestable that this is a
picture of the destruction of the wicked.” (872:119-20)

Also recall that the Hall of Records, “a library of wisdom from the lost civilization of Atlantis,” is
accessed from the right forepaw of the Great Egyptian Sphinx. Kennedy's description of Leo's
forepaw calls to mind not only the forepaw of the Great Sphinx, under which will be discovered
earthshaking revelations, but also Daniel's vision of a beast with ten horns which trampled the
earth with its feet:

After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible,
and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake in pieces,
and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the beasts
that were before it; and it had ten horns... Then I would know the truth of the fourth
beast, which was diverse from all the others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of
iron, and his nails of brass; which devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the
residue with his feet; And of the ten horns that were in his head, and of the other
which came up, and before whom three fell; even of that horn that had eyes, and a
mouth that spake very great things, whose look was more stout than his fellows. I
beheld, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them;
Dan. 7:7,19-21

Kennedy's version of Leo, The Lion sounds ominously to be Great Sphinx which he avers unlocks
the meaning of the Zodiac. In fact, D. James Kennedy seems to be promoting the same
interpretation of the Zodiac as Edgar Cayce and Lambert Dolphin, who predictably approves of the
“gospel in the stars” theory. Along with his endorsement of the Zodiac, Lambert Dolphin, like
Kennedy, piously cautions the reader about the dangers of astrology—the very abomination he
then promotes.

“From Daniel it is clear that magic arts, divination and astrology were indeed an
important part of the religion and culture of Babylon... That divination, astrology
and channeling pose grave, occultic dangers to God's people is clear:..
“But the existence of powerful counterfeits in the world strongly suggests that
there exists a real body of truth that was lost, or corrupted by the god of this world.
All ancient civilizations for some reason have ended up with twelve and only
constellations (signs) of the Zodiac, and many legends connected with these signs
contain similar themes and stories. In studying such matters science can not be the
final arbitrator, for much truth about man and his history is passed down through
the stories, traditions, through the art, music, poetry, and literature of earlier
civilizations. Our generation lives under an illusion that we know more and are
more advanced than were the men of old. The reverse is true. Mankind has been
moving inexorably downhill all the way-especially in the matter of quality of life,
richness of culture and social life. We live near the end of history, far removed
from the profound realities men knew before the Flood.” (904)

What were the “profound realities” men knew before the Flood?

And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and
daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men
that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose... There were
 giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in
unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became
mighty men which were of old, men of renown. - Gen. 6:1,2,4

And how did God view the the “quality of life” of this “advanced civilization” produced by
demons intermarrying with human women:

And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every
imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented
the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And
the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth;
both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it
repenteth me that I have made them. - Gen. 6:5-7

Alexandria

In D. James Kennedy's celestial story of pseudo-salvation, the twelve houses or signs of the
Zodiac are presented as twelve chapters and within each of the twelve houses there are three
minor constellations called 'decans'. “As there were twelve apostles and twelve tribes of Israel,
so there are these twelve chapters in the heavenly story.” (872:17) Here Kennedy borders on
the Gnostic teaching that Christ is the 'sun-god' surrounded by the twelve apostles. This false
doctrine originated with Clement of Alexandria, Egypt, founder of the famous Neo-Platonist
school which synthesized Christianity and Greek philosophy to produce Gnosticism:

“...as archetype, Christ was regarded as the perfection of all twelve [zodiacal signs].
Just as he had 'rule' over twelve human disciples on earth, so he had 'rule' over the
twelve signs of the zodiac in the heavens: the great Clemens, writing from a living
memory of the life of Christ, had no hesitation in equating the twelve disciples with
the twelve signs of the zodiac, with Christ as the central sun... By such reasoning, the
body of Christ, through the numinous power of the zodiac, merges with the body of
man, to become a single united symbol within the church.” (The Secret Zodiac) -
911:22

Clement of Alexandria (d. 215), believed that worship of the stars inspired the worship of God and
that Greek philosophy led the Greeks to Christ: “All the stages of the world’s history were
therefore preparations leading up to this full revelation [of Christ], and God’s care was not
confined to the Hebrews alone. The worship of the heavenly bodies, for instance, was given to man
at an early stage that he might rise from a contemplation of these sublime objects to the worship of
the Creator. Greek philosophy in particular was the preparation of the Greeks for Christ. It was the
schoolmaster or paedagogue to lead them to Christ. Plato was Moses atticizing.” (1013)

It was the Neo-Platonist school in Alexandria, Egypt, which sanitized the occult traditions of their
more offensive content and repackaged them for Christian consumption. The Alexandrian School
also engaged in the corruption of Scripture, indispensable to the promotion of false doctrine.
Clement's successor as headmaster of the Alexandrian School was Origen (184-254 AD), a Neo-
Platonist scholar who was pronounced a heretic by a number of general synods in the early Church
period. Origen produced the gnostic manuscripts that would later form the basis of the ecumenical
bible used by Constantine to assimilate Christianity into the Roman Empire.

Phillip Schaff observed about Origen, “His predilection for Plato led him into many grand and
fascinating errors.” Among Origen's Platonic notions was his concept of the planets as angels.
“After the birth of Christ, we see the doctrine of the planetary spheres accepted by the Christian
Gnostics at the School of Alexandria. The Demiurge of Saturn gave birth out of himself to six sons
or aeons, who together became the seven planetary spirits of the created material world. They are
as described by Origen, Ialdabaoth - Saturn, Iao - Jupiter, Sabaoth - Mars, Adonaios - Sun,
Astaphaios - Venus, Ailoaios - Mercury, Oraios - Moon.” (1016)

Origen's aberrant theology was a Platonic expression of the ancient Hermetic wisdom, 'as above,
so below.' Plato's concept of planetary spirits was derived from the pre-flood culture which
worshipped nine levels of angels in a Celestial Hierarchy that was represented on earth by an semi-
human Council of Nine. According to Realm of the Ring Lords by Laurence Gardner, nine
demonic spirits (seven planetary angels and two supervisors) ruled over pre-flood Atlantis. The
Anunnaki were the four great gods of the pre-flood world, the Nephilim or fallen angels who
mated with human women per Genesis 6: “Anunnaki translates as 'those who Anu sent from
heaven to earth.' They were also called NEPHILIM meaning 'To fall down to Earth, to land...'”:

“The Anunnaki overlords were said to have governed by way of a Grand Assembly
of nine councillors who sat at Nippur. The nine consisted of eight members (seven
males and a female), who held the Rings of divine justice along with their president,
Anu, who held the One Ring to bind them all. Not only does this conform with the
nine kingdoms of the Volsunga Saga, which cites Odin (Wotan) as the ultimate
presidential Ring Lord, but it is also commensurate with the seven archangels of
Hebraic record along with their two supervisors, the Lord of the Spirits and the Most
High (equivalent to Anu). As the original god kings of Mesopotamia, this Assembly
was said to have introduced kingly practice, which according to the Sumerian King
List (dating from before 2000 B.C.) was 'lowered from heaven'.
“In Ring Lore...[he] who held the Ninth Ring, the One Ring was Lord of the Rings.
In ancient times, the One Ring was representative of the overlordship of the Sun, with
the other key Eight Rings representing the planetary kingdoms of Earth, Venus, Mars,
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Mercury.” (722:52.271 ff.6)

The planetary Council of Nine is about to manifest once more as the Antichrist, False Prophet and
seven kings who will tyrannize mankind during the occult's New Age. We believe that New Agers
already know the identity of these individuals through their study of the astrological false gospel,
as interpreted by a large body of occult tradition and the current propaganda proliferating through
New Age publications. There is no reason that Christians, given the same information available to
New Agers, cannot discern and rightly interpret this astrological enigma. The alternative is to be at
the mercy of a massive disinformation campaign, conducted by the same New Age network which
is planning the Tribulation events that will soon come to pass. This occult underground will use the
pseudo-science of astrology to validate the 'divine' bloodline of the Antichrist and False Prophet.
The Real Meaning of the Zodiac is a book with a strategic mission in this global deception: to
prepare the way for reception, by the lukewarm Laodicean Church, of the demonic cast of
characters—fallen angels incarnating human bodies—who will shortly assume their end-time roles.

VIRGO

THE DIVINE ANDROGYNE

"Everything begins with Virgo bringing forth the son of God. In

Virgo, Libra, Scorpio and Sagittarius we see the first advent of
Christ, His death, burial and resurrection, His battle against
Satan." - J.R. Church (1053)

"We are again reminded of the protevangelium*, that 'the seed of the
woman would destroy the seed of the serpent,' and of the great text in
Isaiah 7:14: 'Behold! A virgin shall conceive, and bear a son.' That is,
of course, a picture of Mary, the virgin mother of Christ... The second
thing we note about the sign of Virgo is the emphasis upon her
fertility** (her motherhood), because she holds in her right hand a
branch and in her left hand some sheaves of corn, or seeds of wheat.
There are various interpretations given concerning that.*** As
Christians we can easily see here a reference to the seed of the woman
(that is, the virgin) who will conceive and bring forth a child (Isaiah
7:14)." — D. James Kennedy, The Real Meaning of the Zodiac
(872:20)

*Protevangelium of James: A gnostic apocryphal gospel exalting

Mary's perpetual virginity. Much of the dogma responsible for the
 veneration of Mary can be traced to this document.
** The Egyptians knew Virgo as Isis, the Goddess of Fertility.
***Dr. Kennedy discreetly omitted these pagan interpretations.

THE MOTHER GODDESS

According to the ancient Egyptian sphinx, the first house of the Zodiac is Virgo, not Aries as in the
modern Zodiac. It is common knowledge among occultists that, from remote antiquity, Virgo
represented the Mother Goddess worshipped under various names by different pagan cultures.
"Some of the mythological representations of Virgo are Nana, Eve, Istar, Demeter, Hecate, Themis,
Hera, Astraea, Diana, Cybele, Isis, Fortuna, Erigone, Sibylla and the Virgin Mother. All
representations of the Great Mother in some form. She who existed before the masculine gods of
ancient and classical mythology." (905)

Occultists claim that the word mother derives from the Egyptian hieroglyph ''Mut': "The Female
Principle is recorded in the Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs 'Mut' meaning 'Mother'... The English
word 'Mother' is a derivation of the Ancient Egyptian word 'Mut'." (903:3) The Egyptian mother
goddess Mut wore a vulture headdress and was associated with the cow, the cat and the lioness.
Mut was an androgyne, having breasts and an erect phallus. According to Ancient Worlds, an
internet site which focuses on the ancient gods and goddesses of Egypt,

"There was also a composite deity called 'Mut-Isis-Nekhbet, the Great Mother and
Lady' who was shown as a winged goddess with leonine feet, an erect penis and three
heads - a lion head wearing Min's headdress, a woman's head wearing the double
crown of Egypt and a vulture's head wearing the red crown of Lower Egypt." (1059)

It is believed by occultists that the human race lived in peace, love, harmony and prosperity in an
ancient civilization known as Lemuria, a land mass in the Pacific Ocean which was destroyed by a
series of cataclysms. The Pacific Islands are a remnant of this lost continent, which is referred to
as the Motherland of MU. American archaeologist and mystic, James Churchward, maintained in
The Lost Continent of Mu that documents found in a monastery in India locate the Garden of Eden
in MU.

"The Garden of Eden was not in Asia but on a now sunken continent in the Pacific
Ocean. The Biblical story of Creation came first not from the peoples of the Nile or
the Euphrates Valley but from this now-submerged continent, Mu — the Motherland
of Man."

According to legend, the inhabitants of Mu were an ascended race that existed during the Age of
Virgo, the Great Mother Goddess who ruled over a Golden Age:

"The Sacred Laws of Lemuria valued community, the individual and a peaceful co-
existence. During the era of Mu, the consciousness of the entire planet became
predominately intuitive and female. It was an experiment of love. It was an experiment
with Goddess. Lemuria is believed to have achieved the highest level of civilization on
Earth." (919)

According to Peter Dawkins, author of the Francis Bacon Research Trust Journal, it was during
this period that Great Initiates from the star system Sirius left their perfect and harmonious realm
to undertake a sacrificial mission to our planet.
 "The Ancient Wisdom Traditions teach us that these mighty souls came to our planet
approximately 18 million years ago, living in aetheric bodies and inhabiting the land
subsequently known as Hyperborea ('the Land beyond the North Wind')... Establishing
this area as their principle home and temple, they then moved across the world to other
key areas in order to act as guides and teachers to the young races of humanity. Young
humanity was, at the time of this great incarnation of 'God-men' and 'Sun-men',
existing and evolving in areas of the world known as Mu, the Motherland." (902:39)

Dawkins claims this was also the period of Adam and Eve, who fell - not into sin - but into the
material realm from their formerly ethereal estate:

"As a whole they are known historically as the Third Root Race of mankind, a Race of
men that, 18 million years ago had just begun to exist in physical bodies, and to think
rationally. They needed, at that dawn of rationality, sexuality and free choice, to be
carefully guided, with teachers to answer their questions and to provide allegorical
ideas of the life to be aimed for and the experiences to be undertaken. During this
period the historic (rather than allegorical) story of Adam and Eve took place, followed
by the division of Cain from Abel; the latter representing those souls who followed the
teachings of the Christ souls, and the former representing those souls who chose
otherwise." (902:39)

Gnostics misinterpret the account of the creation of Adam in Genesis 1 as the creation of a male-
female or androgynous being in God's own image: "So God created man in his own image, in the
image of God created he them; male and female created he them." (Gen. 1:27) This androgynous
First Adam, or Adam-Kadmon, was like the angels - eternal - until s/he separated from the divine,
spiritual realm and became imprisoned in the material 3-dimensional world. As a result, Adam-
Kadmon became differentiated into two sexes, the Second Adam and Eve. Some Gnostic versions
of the fall of Adam-Kadmon contend that the Mother Goddess, Adam's first wife, Lilith or Sophia,
separated herself when Adam tried to dominate her. According to the Encyclopedia of Religion's
section on 'Androgyny', the medieval mystic and theosophist, Jacob Boehme, revived and
popularized the concept of the primal androgynous Adam who fell into matter resulting in its
division into Adam and Eve.

"The Judeo-Christian myth and theology of the androgyny of the primal man were
successfully reinterpreted and revalorized by Jakob Boehme (1575-1624). For this
great mystic and theosophist, Adam's sleep represents the first fall: Adam separated
himself from the divine world and 'imagined himself' immersed in nature, by which
act he lowered himself and became earthly. The appearance of the sexes is a direct
consequence of this first fall... Another fundamental idea of Boehme...and other
theosophists was that Sophia, the divine virgin, was originally part of the primal
man. When he attempted to dominate her, the virgin separated herself from him."
(146:279)

Jewish mysticism substitutes Eve or Lilith for Sophia as the better half of this androgynous
Adam: "Even Adam, in Jewish legend, was at first androgynous, until Eve was separated from
him and made autonomous." (100:11) From this false premise, Jewish and Christian Gnostics
reason that God must also be androgynous. Referring to Jewish commentaries on Scripture, the
Encyclopedia of Religion states: "The midrash on Genesis 1:27 explicitly states that when God
created the first man he created him androgynous; thus Adam gave birth to Eve. If man be
made in the image of God, the creator himself would be an androgyne, although there is nothing
explicit about this in the text of Genesis itself." (146:277)
 The Theosophical Glossary states that Sophia, the 'divine virgin' and symbol of wisdom, was, in
fact, the Serpent, i.e. Lucifer. Coupled with the Gnostic doctrine of the androgynous Godhead,
the Serpent becomes the female component of Adam-Kadmon.

"Ophites (Gr.). A Gnostic fraternity in Egypt, and one of the earliest sects of
Gnosticism, or Gnosis (Wisdom, Knowledge), known as the 'Brotherhood of the
Serpent'. It flourished early in the second century and, while holding some of the
principles of Valentinus, had its own occult rites and symbology. A living serpent,
representing the Christos-principle (i.e., the divine reincarnating Monad, not Jesus
the man), was displayed in their mysteries and reverenced as a symbol of wisdom,
Sophia, the type of the all-good and all-wise." (316:241)

VIRGINITY REDEFINED

The gods and goddesses of ancient mythology were not actual characters, but archetypes
representing the ideal state to which mankind will supposedly attain in the New Age. Accordingly,
the Mother Goddess archetype does not represent the Biblical model of motherhood but the
Feminine Principle as defined and manifested in ancient mythology. Nor does 'Virgo, the Virgin'
exemplify the Christian virtue of sexual purity, as per the Pagan Federation: "In ancient times, the
meaning of 'virgin' did not mean the same as it does today, but meant an independent, self
sufficient woman." (668) The Tarot cards are said to reveal the hidden meaning of the
Zodiac. According to Ean Begg, author of The Black Virgin, the Tarot card Justice, which is
generally associated with the star-maiden Virgo, exalted promiscuity rather than virtue:

"Rákóczi writes of this card: To the more licentious it represented the 'virgin quality'
that is gained, not by pure living, but by plunging into the abyss of sexual indulgence;
here we have the exultation of the prostitute as a saint and the saint treated as one who
is 'impure'. Hence, Gypsies often call this the Magdalene card..." (272:138-9)

In esotericism, virginity has a very different connotation than it does in normal parlance. To the
occultist, being a 'virgin' has nothing to do with sexual purity but rather with preparation for
birthing the 'Christ child' through processes of initiation. In fact, rites of initiation frequently
involve sexual immorality as the means to achieve this birthing. In the irrational world of the
occult mystic, evil is good and good becomes evil. To justify sins such as immorality theologically,
the Gnostic simply interprets the Bible allegorically instead of literally. In other words, God's
Word is believed to have a hidden or esoteric meaning that transcends the literal statements which
form the doctrinal basis of traditional Christianity. Thus, it's perfectly acceptable to occultists such
as Peter Dawkins to deny the literal virginity of Mary prior to the birth of Christ, and then to
redefine "virginity" with Mary as an archetype of the gnostic version of this term. Note that the
spirit guide for this baptismal initiation, a pseudo-John the Baptist, is really the dragon-serpent:

"The Baptism of Water refers to the generative and transformative process

undergone by the mortal soul... 'John the Baptist' is the...generative aspect of
JIHOVAH: viz. the dragon-serpent JHVH that evolves and guides the natural soul
through its 'wilderness' of experience until the soul becomes pure in heart, mind
and action. The soul will then be a 'Virgin Mary' and ready to give birth (i.e.
become) the 'Christ-Child' Jesus... This Baptism by Water — the transformative
experiences of the natural soul — is also known as the Lesser Mysteries (or
Degrees) of Initiation, in which the purpose is to produce the pure soul of the
'Virgin Mary'." (902:34)
Once the initiate attains to the new virginity (having been purified from a literal understanding and
application of God's Word) there is yet another initiation to be undergone which transforms the
virgin soul into a 'Christ':

"The Baptism of the Holy Spirit begins at the culmination of the Baptism of Water...
The second Baptism refers to the 'Grace' of God — the blessing of illumination, the
Christhood or Christ consciousness — upon the prepared and virgin soul... Through
the preceeding Baptism by Water, JHVH (the Shakti or generative power) has been
raised up from the root and reached the crown, where it 'marries' with IOA and allows
IOA to flood the soul with light, with divine fire. The result is the transmutation of the
reflective soul, Mary, to become the radiant Christ Soul, Jesus. The natural soul, Mary,
dies in the fire of the Holy Spirit, and is resurrected as the spiritual soul, Jesus, like the
flame arising from the candle." - 902:34

The archetypes of Virgo who are most revered by occultists—Eve, Isis and Mary—are venerated
not for their moral purity, but because they personally conceived the Christ-consciousness through
asexual means. Alice Bailey wrote that each Mother Goddess advanced an aspect of the concept of
"Christ in you, the hope of glory" per Colossians 1:27, which Bailey misconstrued as gnosis.

"The sign Virgo is one of the most significant in the zodiac for its symbology
concerns the whole goal of the evolutionary process which is to shield, nurture and
finally reveal the hidden spiritual reality...[T]he mother protects the germ of the Christ
life; matter guards, cherishes and nurtures the hidden soul. The keynote which
embodies the truth as to the mission of Virgo most accurately is 'Christ in you, the
hope of glory.' There is no clearer or more adequate definition of this sign than that.
"In all the great world religions, the Virgin Mother appears... Three of these
goddesses are Eve, Isis, and Mary... In these three Virgins and these three Mothers of
the Christ, you have the history of the formation and the function of the three aspects
of the personality through which the Christ must find expression. The sign of Virgo
itself stands for a synthesis of these three feminine aspects—Eve, Isis and Mary. She is
the Virgin Mother, providing that which is needed for the mental, emotional and
physical expression of the hidden but ever present divinity. These three expressions
are brought to the needed perfection in Leo, the sign of the individual, developed self-
consciousness and personality unfoldment." - 137:2 (Virgo)

As Catholics venerate Mary who supernaturally gave birth to the Christ Child, Eve and Isis are
similarly revered as aspects of the Mother Goddess, Virgo. New Agers believe that when Adam
and Eve ate the forbidden fruit they incarnated into matter and fell from their divine state. Alice
Bailey states that, as an aspect of the Virgo, Eve "represents the lure of knowledge which prompts
us towards incarnation. She took the apple of knowledge from the serpent of matter, resulting in
the historical human undertaking of experiment, experience and expression." (906 'Virgo')

In the secret doctrine, Eve was the consort of Satan, whose union produced Cain; Cain's
descendants, in turn, were the Anunnaki, gods who came to earth in Genesis 6. Laurence Gardiner
declares the demonic lineage of Cain:

"According to the Dragon tradition, the importance of Cain was that he was directly
produced by Enki [Satan] and Ava [Eve], so his blood was three quarters Anunnaki.
His half brothers Hevel and Satanael (better known as Abel and Seth) were less than
half Anunnaki, being the offspring of Ateba and Ava (Adam and Eve)..." - 612 (Part I)
 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them
wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive
with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God
came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became
mighty men which were of old, men of renown.- Gen. 6:1-3

Former Rosicrucian Grand Master, Max Heindel (1865-1919), identified Cain as the Masonic
'Son of the Widow':

THE MASONIC LEGEND has points of variance from as well as agreement with the
Bible story. It states that Jehovah created EVE, that the Lucifer Spirit SAMAEL united
with her but that he was ousted by Jehovah and forced to leave her before the birth of
her son Cain, who was thus THE SON OF A WIDOW." - 953

The 'son of the widow' is acclaimed by Masonic authorities to be Osiris reincarnated in Horus
in the legend of Hiram Abiff, which is reenacted by Master Masons in their initiation to the
Third Degree. How many men who are initiated into the Third (Master Mason) Degree of
Masonry, realize that they are impersonating Cain when they are symbolically buried and raised
from the dead in a mock funeral and resurrection? Of course, Cain represents the religion of
dead works which the Freemasons embrace, having rejected salvation by faith in the shed blood
of Jesus Christ, which Abel's sacrifice foreshadowed.

'"THE SONS OF CAIN WERE THRUST OUT OF THE TEMPLE WHICH THEY
HAD BUILT, as their father, Cain, had been driven from the garden which he had
tilled. This Hiram felt to be an outrage and an injustice; so he applied himself to
prepare the means whereby the Sons of Cain might 'rend the veil' and open the way to
God for 'whosoever will'." - 953

As an expression of Virgo in the ancient civilization of Egypt, the goddess Isis "represents a
similar principle on the astral plane" for, like the Virgin Mary, she bore Horus through magical
incantations instead of in the normal way.

[T]o ensure his brother's complete demise, [Set] cut up Osiris' body into fourteen
pieces and scattered them far and wide throughout Egypt. Isis found all the pieces of
Osiris' literally dismembered body except the phallus, and through purification by
Thoth, together with magical incantations in which the actual sound of Thoth's voice
played a significant part, the resurrection of Osiris and the subsequent fathering of
Horus was achieved. Following in the wake of his resurrection Osiris had conferred
upon him the title and position of the God of the Dead. In fathering Horus, Osiris
embodied the Masculine Creation Principle. In mothering Horus, Isis embodied the
Female Creation Principle...She was the Holy Mother who was represented with her
child Horus by the Constellation of Virgo. Isis was considered Virgin as she was
seeded after the death and resurrection of Osiris … minus the phallus. (903:4,6)

The myth of Horus is an allegorical perversion of the Genesis account of God's judgment of
Nimrod and the Babylonian religious system from which Egyptian mystery religions
derived. Osiris represents Nimrod whose plan to unite mankind in a revolt against God failed.
(Gen. 10 and 11) Semiramis was Nimrod's mother who became his wife and bore Tammuz as
the reincarnation of Nimrod; Isis, sister of Osiris who became his wife, bore Horus as the
reincarnation of Osiris. Osiris became a type of victory over death because he was resurrected
and reincarnated in his son, Horus.

"It is an indisputable fact that in Ancient Egyptian mythology Osiris did represent
Death and Resurrection. His was the first Resurrection, the first Raising. His child
Horus was the Son of the Widow, Isis." - 903 (Part 2)

High level occultists understand that the gods and goddesses of ancient mythology were
archetypes, and not actual characters. The Masonic authors of The Templar Revelation consider
faith in ideas and concepts more intelligent than faith in a living God.

"Isis...was worshipped as a holy virgin. But although she was also mother of Horus,
this presented no problem to the minds of her millions of followers. For whereas
modern Christians are expected to accept the Virgin birth as an article of faith and
an actual historical event, the followers of Isis (Isians) and other pagans faced no
such intellectual dilemma. To them, Zeus, Venus or Ma'at may or may not have
once walked the earth: what mattered was what they embodied. Each of the
pantheon ruled over his or her own area of human life; for example, the Egyptian
goddess Ma'at dealt with the concept of justice, both in the material world and
when the souls of the dead were weighed in the balance. The gods were understood
to be living archetypes, not historical characters. Isians did not waste their time
searching for cloths that may have wrapped the body of Osiris, nor did they
consider it important to find splinters of the box in which he was confined. Far
from being an unsophisticated and ignorant religion, theirs appears to have had a
profound grasp of the human psyche." - 242:77

The ideas and concepts regarded by occultists as intellectually superior to Christianity are, as a
rule, not merely unconventional but sinful in the extreme and calculated to destroy the social
order established by God in His Word. Clive Prince and Lynn Picknett explain the exoteric
meaning of the myth of the goddess Isis. Her wide appeal to women of all cultures was and is
precisely because of her amoral character:

"Isis was worshipped as both Virgin and Mother—but not as a Virgin Mother.
Isians would have considered the notion of the Virgin birth frankly ridiculous: the
gods may be capable of wonders, but they do not demand that their worshippers
suspend their disbelief quite so much. The worship of most major goddesses
emphasized their essential femininity by dividing it up into three main aspects ,
each representing the lifecycle of real women. First, there is the Virgin, then the
Mother, then the Crone; all three are also linked to the new moon, the full moon
and the dark side of the moon. Each goddess, including Isis, was understood to
stand for the whole female experience, including sexual love, and therefore could
be invoked to help a woman with any kind of problem—unlike the Virgin Mary
whose own personal purity is an impenetrable barrier for those who would like to
share their sexual problems with her... Isis, a full-blooded woman who represents a
complete female lifecycle... Isis, a beautiful girl-goddess to whom women could
pray—with a clear conscience—about absolutely anything, appealed to women
from all cultures. . ." - 242:77-8

The esoteric interpretation of the myth of Isis and Osiris—the hidden meaning understood only
by the enlightened who have been initiated into the Egyptian mysteries—is revealed in the
book, Spiritual Politics: Changing the World From the Inside Out:
 "Like the goddess Isis, who found and restored all of the lost pieces of her husband,
Osiris, many are restoring the unity of all life, bringing together the separate parts
of humanity — different races, religions and cultures." - 42:62

European mystics and esotericists viewed the androgyne as the primal and also the final
perfected man. In other words, at the end of time, the human race is destined to be fused
together into one androgynous entity. According to the Encyclopedia of Religion and other
occult sources, the fall of man was not due to sin but rather his descent into matter. However,
mankind's entrapment in the material realm will one day be reversed and men and women will
be restored to their former ethereal and androgynous state:

"...the androgyne had existed at the beginning (Adam) and will be again at the end
of time. [Franz von] Baader borrowed from Boehme the conception of Adam's first
fall, the sleep in which his celestial companion was separated from him. But,
thanks to Christ, man will again become like the angels... Baader considered that a
theology presenting 'sin as a disintegration of man, and the redemption and
resurrection as his reintegration' would conquer all other theologies." (146:279)

German romantics such as J. W. Ritter (1776-1810) believed that a new androgynous and
immortal humanity will be produced in the likeness of Christ, whom they consider to be an
androgyne.

"...the androgyne was the perfect, 'total' human being of the future... For Ritter the
man of the future would be, like Christ, an androgyne. 'Eve,' he wrote 'was
engendered by man without the aid of woman; Christ was engendered by woman
without the aid of man; the androgyne will be born of the two. But the husband and
wife will be fused together in a single flesh.' The body that is to be born will then
be immortal." (146:279)

"With regard to Rev. 14:4 ('Those are they that are not defiled with women; for
they are virgins') [Georg] Koepgen asserts, 'Here the new androgynous form of
existence becomes visible. Christianity is neither male nor female, it is male-female
in the sense that the male paired with the female in Jesus' soul. In Jesus the tension
and polaristic strife of sex are resolved in an androgynous unity. And the Church,
as his heir, has taken this over from him; She too is androgynous.'" - 146:281

According to the secret doctrine of the occult, the archetypal Mother Goddess, Eve, and God
(Christ) produce an androgynous child; this "occult trinity" is a recurring theme in pagan
religions, only the names of the characters are changed in each culture.

"Every triad, Blavatsky says, has a male, female and androgen... Eve is within
Adam... They are the first androgen. I...found the same idea in 'The Gnostic
Gospels'. [In] 'Isis Unveiled' Mme Blavatsky compares the Indian, Chaldean, and
Ophite systems. The One becomes dual, or Father and Mother, when manifesting.
From the union of the two emanates a third, which is the Son, or manifested
Logos...
"Blavatsky had an idea about the creation process... [T]he male aspect of the
Deity has the ideal thought for a creation. This implants a seed into the womb of
the feminine aspect of Deity (Sakti), who then 'gives birth' to the Son, the Logos,
The Word made flesh. She and others say that the 'Son' is actually an androgen
'Child.'" - 502
The occult concept of the Trinity as Father, Mother and the androgynous Son explains why the
Gnostics spare no effort in order to misrepresent the Holy Spirit as female. Note well in the
following excerpt two things: (1) that this false doctrine is supported by the Alexandrian stream
of corrupt manuscripts, the Vatinicus and Sinaiticus, which underlie modern bible translations
and (2) the 19th century textual critics and translators who supplanted the Greek Textus
Receptus with these Gnostic texts.

"At one point [Jerome] has before him the gospel of the Hebrews used by the
Syrian Christians which, as some now say, predated the four canonical gospels. In
it, Jerome says that the Holy Spirit is expressed in the feminine gender and is
considered the mother in law of the soul. (Library 11, commentary in Isaiah,
chapter 11: Library 2, commentary. in Micah 7.6:) So here is some additional
external evidence from an unrelated source that the Holy Spirit was originally
considered feminine.
"Next we go to the detail of the internal evidence from the Greek texts existent
today and then to the scope of scripture. As we examine the Greek texts it seems at
first that we are at a loss. At all points in the accepted text the gender of the Holy
Spirit and its associated pronouns are rendered in the neuter, yet when we look at
the scope of scripture and consider that the Holy Spirit could be feminine, it still
seems that it may be so. Finally, as we scour the accepted text and variant
renderings used to translate it, we come across one small Greek letter in the text as
an unaccounted gem of possible truth. It is in the tiniest of print in the variant texts
at the bottom of page 290 in George Ricker Berry’s fifteenth printing of The
Interlinear Literal Translation of The Greek New Testament. The more we turn this
small gem in the light of the repetitive historical attempts to silence Paul and his
revelation of the mystery, and in the light from the scope of scripture the more
importance it seems to have and the more brilliantly it seems to shine. It is the
Greek letter eta which is either the feminine definite article to which a feminine
noun must be attached or the feminine third person singular pronoun which must
also agree with its associated noun. It is present with the corresponding accent,
which would make it the third person feminine pronoun, in the final phrase in the
gospel of John in chapter fourteen verse sixteen as the majority of the Greek texts
including Lachman, Tishendorph, Tragelles, and Alford attest. It is also present in
Knoch’s literal interlinear which is based on the three major uncials of Alexandrius,
Vatinicus and Sinaiticus. Accordingly this verse should be translated as such: 'And
I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that she may dwell
with you forever; John 14:16'" - 917

The Greek Textus Receptus does not support a feminine gender for the Holy Spirit. The 17th
edition of the George Ricker Berry TR states: "'And I will pray the Father, and he shall give
you another Comforter, that he may dwell with you forever; John 14:16" The Greek word for
"Comforter" (parakletos) is an accusative, singular, masculine noun (Strongs #3875). It is not
neuter. While the verb dwell or abide is third person, and can be male, female or neuter, it must
take on the gender of the subject.

What is really behind this Gnostic interpretation of the Holy Spirit is a subtle exchange of
personages. The androgynous Adam-Eve of Genesis 1:27 and subsequent god-goddess
archetypes of the male and female principles are, in fact, the androgynous God of the dualist
heresy — Lucifer who poses as a kind and compassionate feminist god as opposed to the evil
male god who created the corrupt material world and fosters male supremacy:
 "So to Luciferians, God has a dual nature; he is the good god, Lucifer, and the bad
god, Adonay, both supposedly equal in power, yet opposite in intent... Lucifer is
further divided into Isis, the female principal, and Osiris, the male principal. The
myth that a benevolent Lucifer still exists, is at the core of the secret societies. It
paints Lucifer as being different from Satan—as some form of benevolent god who
favors his followers on the basis of their level of 'illumination'." (William Still,
New World Order & the Ancient Plan of Secret Societies) - 86:31

"In our opinion, the Catholic Church never wanted its members to know about
the true relationship between Jesus and Mary, which is why the Gnostic Gospels
were not included in the New Testament and why most Christians do not even
know they exist...
"According to that censored material, which was deliberately rejected to prevent
the true picture from being known, Jesus gave the Magdalene the title of 'Apostle
of the Apostles' and 'the Woman Who Knew All.' He said that she would be raised
above all the other disciples and rule the forthcoming Kingdom of Light. As we
have seen, he also called her Mary Lucifer.' - 'Mary the Lightbringer'..." (The
Templar Revelation) - 242:261

What the mystics are aiming for in their movement toward extinction of the sexes, is
procreation through asexual means as the preferred method of reproduction. Eventually, human
partners will be replaced with angelic beings who are androgynous and pass their genetic code
onto their offspring. This ultimate experiment in eugenics will produce a race of demi-gods
such as occurred in the days of Noah (Gen. 6).

And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and
daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men
that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. And the
LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet
his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants in the earth in
those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of
men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of
old, men of renown. And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the
earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil
continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it
grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have
created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and
the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. - Gen. 6:1-7

VIRGO-SCORPIO

According to The Secret Doctrine by H.P. Blavatsky, before the fall of Adam and Eve, Virgo was
Virgo-Scorpio, a single sign representing the first man as a male-female or Androgyne:

"...in ancient times...only ten [signs of the Zodiac] were known to the profane; the
initiates, however, knew them all, from the time of the separation of mankind into
sexes, whence arose the separation of Virgo-Scorpio into two; which owning to a
secret sign added and the Libra invented by the Greeks, instead of the secret name
which was not given, made 12... The Adam of the first chapter is the spiritual,
therefore pure androgyne, Adam-Kadmon. When woman issues from the left rib of
the second Adam (of dust), the pure Virgo is separated, and falling 'into generation,' or
 the downward cycle, becomes Scorpio emblem of sin and matter." (209:502ff)

According to Gnostic doctrine, the Serpent was good Spirit (Holy Spirit) also known as the Logos
and Divine Wisdom and its sign is Virgo-Scorpio:

"The 'Old Dragon' was pure spirit before he became matter, passive before he became
active. In the Syro-Chaldean magic both Ophis and Ophiomorphis are joined in the
Zodiac, at the sign of the Androgyne Virgo-Scorpio. Before its fall on earth the
'Serpent' was Ophis-Christos, and after its fall it became Ophiomorphis-CHRESTOS."
- 930:323-327

The occult concept of the 'divine androgyne' (more accurately, 'demonic' androgyne) will be
seen repeatedly along the gnostic 'way of salvation' presented in the Zodiac. As Blavatsky
stated, the ancient Zodiac had only ten signs due the union of Virgo and Scorpio and the
absence of Libra. With the fall of Adam and Eve into matter, the Virgo-Scorpio divided and
Libra was added, making twelve signs. The original double sign of the 'divine androgyne',
however, represented not only the fall of the heavenly (angelic) Adam into dense matter and
division into sexes, but also the transformation of the world from a formerly spiritual and
ethereal state into its present material condition.

According to this secret doctrine, the revised Zodiac reflected the fall of the human race, now
trapped in matter, and its subsequent destruction as it undertook to regain its former estate.
Thanks to a new sign invented by the Greeks, Libra reveals the Gnostic version of redemption,
to wit, that when humanity reached the nadir of its existence of enslavement in matter, the
scales of justice (requiring balance) initiated an equal reaction in the opposite direction resulting
in an upward swing of the human race toward its previous spiritualized existence. However,
mankind's return to the 'heavenly' state, aided by intermarriage with demons per Genesis 6, was
rudely interrupted by the Great Flood during the sign of Pisces.

"Instead of the twelve signs now used, there were originally but ten known to the
general public, viz.: Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Virgo-Scorpio, Sagittarius,
Capricornus, Aquarius, and Pisces. These were exoteric. But in addition there were
two mystical signs inserted, which none but initiates comprehended, viz.: at the middle
or junction-point where now stands Libra, and at the sign now called Scorpio, which
follows Virgo. When it was found necessary to make them exoteric, these two secret
signs were added under their present appellations as blinds to conceal the true names
which gave the key to the whole of creation, and divulged the origin of 'good and
evil.'
"The true Sabean astrological doctrine secretly taught that within this double sign
was hidden the explanation of the gradual transformation of the world, from its
spiritual and subjective, into the 'two-sexed' sublunary state. The twelve signs were
therefore divided into two groups. The first six were called the ascending, or the line of
Macrocosm (the great spiritual world)—the mere reflection of the former, so to say.
This division was called Ezekiel's wheel, and was completed in the following way:
First came the ascending five signs (euphemerized into patriarchs), Aries, Taurus,
Gemini, Cancer, Leo, and the group concluded with Virgo-Scorpio. Then came the
turning-point, Libra. After which, the first half of the sign Virgo-Scorpio, was
duplicated and transferred to lead the lower, or descending group of Microcosm which
ran down to Pisces or Noah (deluge). To make it clearer, the sign Virgo-
Scorpio...became simply Virgo, and the duplication...Scorpio, was placed between
Libra, the seventh sign (which is Enoch, or the angel Metatron, or Mediator between
 spirit and matter, or God and man). It now became Scorpio (or Cain), which sign or
patriarch led mankind to destruction, according to exoteric theology; but according to
the true doctrine of the wisdom-religion, it indicated the degradation of the whole
universe in its course of evolution downward from the subjective to the objective." -
195:456-7 (Vol II)

The real meaning of Virgo suggests a very different gospel than that which is proffered to the
Christian masses in books such as Kennedy's Real Meaning of the Zodiac. Blavatsky states that
when Virgo separated from Virgo-Scorpio, she became Scorpio.

"The name of Eve is composed of three letters, that of the primitive or heavenly
Adam is written with one letter, Hod or Yodh; therefore it must not be read Jehova
but Ieva, or Eve. The Adam of the first chapter is the spiritual, therefore pure
androgyne, Adam-Kadmon. When woman issues from the left rib of the second
Adam (of dust), the pure Virgo is separated, and falling 'into generation,' or the
downward cycle, becomes Scorpio emblem of sin and matter...
"Cain...is the Son of the 'Lord,' not of Adam (Genesis vi.1.) The 'Lord' is Adam
Kadmon, Cain, the Son of sinful thought, not the progeny of flesh and blood. Seth
on the other hand is the leader of the races of the earth, for he is the son of Adam,
and begotten 'in his own likeness, after his image. (Genesis v. 3) - 195:462-3 (Vol
II)

It seems that the gods who came to earth to teach mankind how to evolve beyond the 3-
dimensional state became disgusted at the warlike behavior of the human race and returned to
heaven where they now reside in the Zodiacal signs. It is said that Virgo reigned over the earth
during the Golden Age but, offended at the wickedness of mankind, she returned to her position
in the sky:

"Hesiod says this figure is Themis; the daughter of Jupiter; but Aratus says she is
the daughter of Astraeus and Aurora, and that she reigned over the human race
during the Golden Age of mankind...." (570:206)

"Virgo was drawn in the Egyptian zodiac and was said to represent the goddess
Isis. To the Romans she was Astrea, the goddess of Justice, holding the Scales of Libra
in her hand. Astrea, sickened by the wars of men, was the last of the celestial beings
to leave the earth for the heavens, hence she is sometimes depicted with the wings that
she used to ascend to the stars." - 920

Peter Dawkins explains in The Great Vision that, after the civilization of Lemuria was destroyed,
"Christ souls" from more advanced galaxies incarnated on the earth to enable mankind to evolve
beyond their debased material condition. The next great civilization to appear was Atlantis:

"After Mu, the next great epoch of human civilization was in Atlantis, in which
humanity is known as the Fourth Root Race... The Atlanteans are the Nephilim
('giants') of the bible, their ancestor being Seth, the third 'son' of Adam. During this
period the Christ souls and their disciples—the 'sons of God'—incarnated totally into
the dense substance of the planet, and into its human life cycle, taking on dense
physical bodies and involving themselves far more completely with the experiences of
younger humanity. Thus 'the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were
fair; and they took wives of all which they chose.' Their progeny became 'the mighty
men, the men of renown', the great initiate-teachers who lived amongst mankind and
 who established centres of the Ancient Wisdom of Atlantis, to teach the Mysteries of
God and lead those who were ready and capable through initiation." - 902:39

It seems that the majority of Atlanteans wickedly disregarded the wisdom of the great initiated
teachers and, preferring power and materialism to the transcendent state, brought destruction on the
world through "...a large asteroid, dislodged from the solar system's asteroid belt by the probable
influence of galaxial nebulae, and attracted to the Earth because of the greed of the people for
energy and power, acting against the advice of the sages... This period of destruction constitutes
the historical aspect of Noah's Flood; Noah and his family representing those of humanity, guided
by the initiates and great sages, who took refuge and established 'Arks' or landscape temples in
areas that could...withstand the destruction." - 902:39

Here we find a rather different account of the Deluge than set forth in the book of Genesis, chapter
7. New Agers claim that Atlantis had advanced very far along the evolutionary path; however, this
great civilization was destroyed by the gods when men began to neglect the occult traditions.

"Atlantis [was] a highly evolved ancient civilization which developed and used
advanced technologies such as those we are learning about today. The civilization
misused some of the technologies by not integrating spiritual practices into their use
and was destroyed by earthquakes and other cataclysms. The continent of Atlantis
sank into the Atlantic Ocean on three separate occasions. Some Atlanteans escaped
and went to such places as Greece, Egypt and Central America... - 45:368

Apparently, Noah received his intelligence about the coming judgment from the Ascended Masters,
who are communicating with many today concerning the imminent transformation of Earth into a
Garden of Eden of the Universe.

"In several messages received over the last few years, the Ascended Masters have
spoken of the transformation Earth is presently going through. Often they included
descriptions of the changes that would occur, to both land and people. They called it
the birthing process for the planet...
"This transformation into the New Age was described once, by the Arcturians, as
the birthing of a planet (earth) into a star in the Heavens. They said that it has been
written since ancient Babylon that the Earth would journey into the Age of Aquarius
and become a Garden of Eden in the universe...
"These Masters appear to be members of a group that oversees the entire plan of
operations — at least for this section of the universe. Emphatically, they state that they
work for God. They are here to assure us that all details of this plan run on schedule.
Throughout history, when the time was right, they have communicated with souls such
as ourselves. They cite Noah's being notified of the upcoming flood or John the
Baptist's foretelling the coming of Jesus as examples. These historical figures received
their messages in the same way that many are receiving this kind of information
today." - 45:3,5

Occultists believe that, following the Deluge or whatever great cataclysm they invent to replace
what really happened Genesis 7, the gods and goddesses either escaped by returning to the
heavens, or to the underworld, and that those adepts whom they had trained in the occult traditions
traveled to other parts of the world where they preserved the sacred knowledge that made Atlantis
great. One of the great civilizations that developed from the pre-flood civilization was Egypt. Peter
Dawkins wrote in Arcadia: The Egyptian Mysteries of the colonization of Egypt by the high adepts
who escaped from dying Atlantis bringing with them the alchemical and sacred geometry teachings
of Enoch, whom the Egyptians knew as Thoth, later renamed Hermes Trismegistus by the Greek
Neo-Platonists:

"One of the earlier civilisations to arise from the ashes of Atlantis, although not on
such a large scale, and which seriously attempted to create a Golden Age for itself,
was that of Ancient Egypt...
"...it would appear that the civilisation which we know as Ancient Egypt was the
result of a pre-planned and carefully controlled experiment in human civilisation, the
organisation and knowledge for which had been carefully prepared over many
thousands of years. The original knowledge was given to the first sages of Egypt by
the 'Gods', and those sages are themselves said to have come as colonists from Atlantis
during the last few thousands of years of that 'Titanic' period of man's development. In
other words, there was a sacred tradition of wisdom knowledge handed on from the
past via a line of sages or high initiates, that was said to have come from the great
Atlantean sage, Enoch (as he was known to the Hebrews), or Thoth (as he was known
to the Egyptians), who 'walked with God' and was raised up into the highest heaven to
become the Messiah or Teacher of all mankind. He, in his turn, had received a sacred
tradition of wisdom knowledge via a line of sages stemming from Adam, the first
incarnate man, who had been instructed by God after his fall from Paradise. Enoch
was known mystically as 'the seventh from Adam." - 889:15,28

Like Eve who was the better half of Adam-Kadmon, the occult portrays the Egyptian goddess,
Isis, as the twin sister and female counterpart of Osiris who was the male portion of an
androgynous or hermaphrodite deity. In ancient Egypt, as fraternal twins and husband-wife, Isis
and Osiris were called the 'divine androgyne.' This secret doctrine of the hermaphrodite God,
who is the generative power, is symbolized by the Masonic square and compass and also the
six-pointed star:

"The Hermaphroditic figure is the Symbol of the double nature anciently assigned to
the Deity, as Generator and Producer, as Brahm and Maya among the Aryans, Osiris
[Saturn] and Isis [Venus] among the Egyptians. As the Sun was male, so the Moon
was female; and Isis was both sister and the wife of Osiris. The Compass, therefore, is
the Hermetic Symbol of the Creative Deity, and the Square of the productive Earth or
Universe..." (Albert Pike) (39:155)

THE BLACK VIRGIN

VIRGO TRANSITIONS TO MARY

We have discussed the ancient worship of Virgo and her archetypes, Eve and Isis. In the
Christian era, this goddess worship was continued in Gnostic forms of Christianity which
originated in the School of Alexandria, Egypt founded by Clement. H.P. Blavatsky wrote in
Isis Unveiled: "...Cyril, the Bishop of Alexandria, had openly embraced the cause of Isis, the
Egyptian goddess, and had anthropomorphized her into Mary, the mother of God..." 195:41
(Vol. II) The Greek adaptation of Virgo, the Mother Goddess, was Demeter whose daughter
Kore was abducted by Pluto, god of the underworld. Kore who would remain the dark lord's
queen and her name would no longer be Kore, the maiden, but Persephone, - "she who is to be
feared". The Alexandrian Gnostics worshipped Kore, and justified their pagan goddess worship
by giving her the trappings of Christianity:

"Another important feature of the Gnostic tradition of Epiphany is that it is really a

feminine holiday. St. Clement of Alexandria (c. 194) mentioned that the followers
of the Gnostic master Basilides feasted on the day of the Baptism and kept a long
vigil before it. Epiphanius (305-402) gave us a detailed description of how the
Alexandrian Gnostics celebrated the Epiphany. They did this in the sanctuary of the
Maiden Goddess Kore whom they equated with the image of the Holy Virgin. At
midnight they descended with torches into the crypt of the temple and brought the
wooden statue of Kore forth in procession. The Maiden was represented naked and
sitting, with crosses marked on her brow, her hands and her knees. The statue
was carried seven times around the central shrine and was then retired to the crypt
once more. The Gnostics said that on this day, Kore, the Virgin, gave birth to the
divine principle known as the Christ. It is from the feminine intuitive consciousness
and feeling nature that the messianic power, of individuated consciousness is born.
Thus the human nature of Jesus or Everyman is transformed into divine and
spiritual nature by the holy female power, the Holy Spirit, in the initiation rite of
baptism." - 834

It was in the thoroughly Gnostic culture of Alexandria that the Mother Goddess evolved into
Mary Magdalene. Ean Begg wrote in The Cult of the Black Virgin that "...many of the finest
Gnostic writings are of Alexandrian inspiration or origin. Alexandria is also the main source of
Gnostic works linking Jesus with Mary Magdalene. According to this tradition it was through
the Magdalen, rather than through Peter and the male apostles, that Jesus transmitted his secret
doctrine." (272:128) The Gnostics misrepresent Mary Magdalene as a native of the Magdolum
in Egypt which they associate with Migdol:
 "There is no necessity to endeavor to crowbar [Mary Magdalene] into a Galilean
setting, for there are other intriguing alternatives for her place of origin: although
there was no ‘Magdala’ in Judea in her day, there was a Magdolum in Egypt - just
across the border - which was probably the Migdol mentioned in Ezekiel. There
was a large and flourishing Jewish community in Egypt at that time, which was
particularly centered on the great sea port of Alexandria, a seething cosmopolitan
melting pot of many races, nationalities and religions and perhaps where the Holy
Family had fled to escape the depredations of Herod’s men." - 843

There is no mention of Migdol in the book of Ezekiel, however the prophet Jeremiah reproved
the apostate Jews who took up residence in Migdol, Egypt against the word of the Lord who
had commanded them to go to Babylon. Specifically, their worship of the Mother Goddess is
addressed:

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land
of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the
country of Pathros, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye
have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of
Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein,
Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in
that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not,
neither they, ye, nor your fathers...
Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other
gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that
dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying, As for the word
that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto
thee. But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth,
to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her,
as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of
Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were
well, and saw no evil. But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven,
and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been
consumed by the sword and by the famine. And when we burned incense to the
queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes
to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? - Jer. 44:1-
3,15-19

Here it is apparent that the worship of Virgo, under the appellation of Isis, spread from Egypt
into Israel. From the Holy Land, worship of the Mother Goddess extended to the centers of the
Roman Empire:

"The cult of Isis was widespread in the Egypt of the dynastic period. From Egypt it
spread northwards to Phoenicia, Syria and Palestine; to Asia Minor; to Cyprus,
Rhodes, Crete, Samos and other islands in the Aegean; to many parts of mainland
Greece - Corinth, Argos and Thessaly amongst them; to Malta and Sicily; and,
finally, to Rome. In the first century BC, Isis was perhaps the most popular goddess
in the Eternal City, from which her cult spread to the furthest limits of the Roman
Empire, including Britain: her only rival was Mithras. - (920)

Thus, the worship of Virgo in the Roman Catholic Church can be traced to the worship of Isis
in Egypt.
 "Immaculate is our Lady Isis...the very terms applied afterwards to that personage
(the Virgin Mary) who succeeded to her form, titles, symbols, rites, and
ceremonies... Thus, her devotees carried into the new priesthood the former badges
of their profession, the obligation to celibacy, the tonsure, and the surplice,
omitting, unfortunately, the frequent ablutions prescribed by the ancient creed. The
'Black Virgins', so highly reverenced in certain French cathedrals...proved, when at
last critically examined, basalt figures of Isis!'" - 921

Even the trappings of monasticism that found a home in Roman Catholicism originated in the
asceticism that was prevalent in Egypt, dating back to Hermes Trismegestis (Ham) who was the
prototype of the 'hermit' monk. The Council of Nicea in 321 A.D., at which St. Athanasius
(296-373 AD), the Bishop of Alexandria, valiantly opposed the Arian heresy, also established
in its canons the requirement of celibacy for Christian leaders. (548) Following his victory over
the Arians, Athanasius traveled throughout Europe promoting monasticism and asceticism; he is
credited with introducing monasticism in particular to the Romans and Germans. In the Gnostic
theology of Athanasius, only ascetics were considered the Bride of Christ. The evil fruit of
asceticism, enforced celibacy and monastic life can be seen in the rampant sexual perversion
within the Catholic priesthood and hierarchy.

It was through the establishment of monasteries that the Merovingians infiltrated the Roman
Catholic Church. And it is from the worldwide monastic movement that the False Prophet, also
a Merovingian, will rise to prominence and power as the Antichrist's right hand man. This
Merovingian monk is exposed in the section of this report dealing with the sign of Cancer.

In 431 A.D., the Third Ecumenical Council was held at Ephesus in Greece, whose philosophy
and culture were based in the occult traditions of Atlantis. The Council of Ephesus condemned
the Nestorian heresy and approved the veneration of the Virgin Mary as Theotokos (God-Bearer
or Mother of God). Nestorius and the Nestorians were exiled to the Persian Empire and become
the Assyrian Orthodox Church of the East. However, what appears to have been a classic
dialectical operation would prepare the way for Mary to be transformed from the 'Mother of
God' to a deity in the image of Isis, who shared in the divinity of her son, Horus. In an article
on Mariology, Keri Mills presents an insightful analysis of the great Nestorian controversy:

"Catholics claim that no serious question was raised about Mary's sinlessness after
the Council of Ephesus in AD 431 which declared Mary to be 'God bearer, Mother
of God'. What is not explained is the reason why no questions (according to the
RCC) were raised after the council. It is clearly documented that Nestorius, bishop
of Constantinople, was declared a heretic and exiled because he rejected the
popular title given to Mary (Mother of God). The church would claim that
Nestorius made it appear, in his emphasis on the reality of the humanity of Jesus,
that Christ was two persons or 'two sons' the son of Mary and the son of God.
Interestingly, the writings of Ignatius, a disciple of the apostle John and bishop of
Antioch, declared a similar thought, 'Mary is presented as Mother of Christ
according to his human nature, as the heavenly Father is his Father according to his
divine nature (To the Ephesians)', with the same purpose to refute heretical
thinking, and yet he is not declared a heretic. Nestorius was declared a heretic
based power politics and his denial of Mary as God-bearer, not on Christology.
Nestorius was refuting heretical ideas that Christ was not flesh, only deity. In his
autobiography, he insisted that he did not oppose the title 'God-bearer' because he
denied the Godhead of Christ, but rather to distinguish that Jesus was a genuine
human being born with a body and soul. He insisted that calling Mary 'God-bearer,
Mother of God' was to declare that God could be born of a woman. Parents pre-
exist their children, yet Mary a mortal woman could not pre-exist God; in fact the
 exist their children, yet Mary a mortal woman could not pre-exist God; in fact the
paradox remains clear to this day that Jesus the son of Mary pre-existed Mary. Yet
with the reign of Constantine, the church had gained power, and so no serious
questions would be raised outwardly, without the backing of the majority, once that
power had been exercised on Nestorius." - 849

THE BLACK VIRGIN

"During the first century A.D., Alexandria was a veritable hotbed of mystical activity, a crucible
in which Judaic, Mithraic, Zoroastrian, Pythagorean, Hermetic, and neo-Platonic doctrines
suffused the air and combined with innumerable others." (31:123) "The Neo-Platonists," in the
words of Robert Temple, author of The Sirius Mystery, "are Greek philosophers who lived long
enough after Plato to have lost the name of Platonists as far as modern scholars are concerned
(although they were intellectual disciples of Plato and considered themselves Platonists)."
(942:72)

In this thoroughly pagan milieu, an Egyptian Seraphic priest and magus by the name of
Ormesius founded the Society of Ormus. The members of this society included the Therapeutae
of Alexandria and the Essenes of Qumran—apostate Jewish sects that embraced the secret
doctrine of the lost continent of Atlantis, which was the source of all ancient occult beliefs.
Gnostics allege that Ormesius was a convert of St. Mark, however, such conversions are a
common modus operandi of infiltrators with hidden agendas. As a false convert, Ormesius
would synthesize Christianity with the paganism of Alexandria, according to Antiquities of the
Illuminati, which presents source material documenting the history of the Rose Croix:

"According to Baron de Westerode, the founder of the Rosicrucians was one

Ormesius, who had been converted by St. Mark, at Alexandria, in A.D. 46. He
purified the Egyptian Rites, and reconciled them with Christianity, carrying his
disciples with him, and founded the Society of ORMUS, or of the Light, each
member wearing a red cross. To this society the Essenes and Therapeutae joined
themselves, and conserved the Masonic Secrets." - 636 (Part 3)

The Society of Ormus would relocate to Italy, whence, in 1070 A.D., its monks would remove
to territory in France owned by Godfroi de Bouillon, the first Grand Master of the Knights
Templar. The monks were given a tract of land in Orval owned by St. Bernard of Clairvaux,
founder of the Cistercian Order of monks and author of the Rule of the Templars. According to
Holy Blood, Holy Grail, the Society of Ormus became the Prieuré de Sion.

"The 'Prieuré documents' imply that...an abbey existed by 1100 and housed an
order of the...name [Ordre de Sion] which may have been formed earlier... It is
known that in 1070, twenty-nine years before the First Crusade, a specific band of
monks from Calabria in southern Italy arrived in the vicinity of the Ardennes
Forrest, part of Godfroi de Bouillon's domains. According to Gérard de Sède this
band of monks was led by an individual called Ursus—a name the 'Prieuré
documents' consistently associate with the Merovingian bloodline... [A]t Orval, not
far from Stenay, where Dagobert II had been assassinated some five hundred years
earlier...an abbey was established to house the monks... By 1108 they had
mysteriously disappeared... Orval, by 1131, had become one of the fiefs owned by
Saint Bernard...
"In 1188 the Ordre de Sion is...said to have modified its name, adopting the one
which has allegedly obtained to the present—the Prieuré de Sion. As a kind of
subtitle it is said to have adopted the curious name 'Ormus.' This subtitle was
supposedly used until 1306—a year before the arrest of the French Templars. The
 supposedly used until 1306—a year before the arrest of the French Templars. The
device for 'Ormus'...involves a kind of acrostic or anagram which combines a
number of key words and symbols. Ours means 'bear' in French—Ursus in Latin,
an echo, as subsequently became apparent, of Dagobert II and the Merovingian
dynasty. Orme is French for 'elm.' Or, of course, is 'gold.' And the M that forms the
frame enclosing the other letters is not only an M but also the astrological sign for
Virgo—connoting, in the language of medieval iconography, Notre Dame...
""...mysterious Abbey of Orval...[is] where our research suggested the Prieuré de
Sion may have had its inception." - 31:113,122

The signature of the Prieuré de Sion utilized the sign of Virgo -- with the four letters ORUS
in the form of a cross within the symbol. It appears that the name of Ormus incorporated the
gods Virgo and Horus, i.e. the Madonna and Child.

"...consider the device of the Priory of SION, namely, the name Ormus, and its
glyph. The glyph is as follows:
ORUS.
[note, for older browsers: this is OR + Virgo Sign + US, the Virgo Sign in the
standard font, "Wingdings"]
"What is this? Ormus, that is, Virgo and ORUS. What is ORUS? ORUS is a
corrupted form of Horus, and is used in Crowley's 5th Degree Ritual for the OTO.
His Rose-Croix ritual includes an analysis of the Keyword, much like in the
Golden Dawn Adeptus Minor Ceremony, only IAO stands not for ISIS, APOPHIS,
and OSIRIS, but IACCHUS, ASI, and ORUS." - 937

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Ormus evolved into the Order of the Prieuré de Sion of
the Rosy Cross: "One is intended to see in Ormus the origins of the so-called Rose-Croix, or
Rosicrucians. And in 1188 the Prieuré de Sion is said to have adopted a second subtitle in
addition to Ormus. It is said to have called itself L'Ordre de la Rose-Croix Veritas...
Ormus...[was] the name allegedly adopted by the Prieuré de Sion between 1188 and 1307." -
31:123,185

Charles Nodier, Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion from 1801-1884, averred that this secret
order presided over a global network of secret societies: "There are a great many secret
societies in operation, Nodier declares. But there is one, he adds, that takes precedence over all
others, that in fact presides over all others. According to Nodier this 'supreme' secret society is
called the Philadelphes. At the same time, however, he speaks of 'the oath which forbids me to
make them known under their social name.' Nevertheless there is a hint of Sion..." - 31:152

In 1099, the Merovingian dynasty in collusion with Pope Urban II, a Merovingian, launched the
First Crusade. The following rather long excerpt from an article titled The Merovingian
Infiltration of the Christian World Through Monasticism confirms what we have long
suspected. Urban was not the first Merovingian pope, but the 6th in a succession of French
Merovingian popes beginning in 999 A.D.

999 AD The first Frenchman to be pope, becomes Sylvester II, former tutor of the
Emperor Otto III (note: Sylvester I (314) had been pope during the reign of
Constantine, who like Merovingians facilitated Christianity, but remained pagan
until his deathbed). The new French pope, Sylvester II had been Abbot of the
monastery founded by Columbanus, Bobbio; became one of its scholars, excelling
in mathematics which had been learned in Arab schools in Spain; thence, he
became Master at Reims. The French Merovingian infiltration had begun —-in 999
—- 666 upside down! Clue: Sylvester died on what would become the eve of the
—- 666 upside down! Clue: Sylvester died on what would become the eve of the
Feast of Fatima, May 12 Observe closely the progression of the infiltration in the
following entries:

1057 : Stephen IX (X), French Abbot of Monte Cassino, Benedict’s monastery,

becomes pope and surrounds himself with leading “Reformers” per the
Merovingian mandate to “Reform the Church” (meaning “Crush the Church” per
the conspiracy).

1058: Nicholas II, French from Burgundy becomes a leading reformer pope

1073: Gregory VII of Tuscany, part of the Carolingian kingdom of the Franks, and
Cluniac monk becomes pope and transforms the Church into a legal institution with
a monarchial form of government. He seems not to have played his “expected role”
as he came into conflict with the Holy Roman Emperor when he issued a general
ban on lay investiture. He died exiled captive of the Normans.

1087: Victor III, Abbot of Monte Cassino, Benedict’s monastery, becomes pope.

1088: Urban II, French Prior of Cluny (Reformed Benedictines) becomes the pope.
Urban was of the “Eudes” family, not only the name of the King of the Franks,
Eudes, who ruled 888 to 898 and considered one of the antecedent kings of the
Capetian House of France, but also the name of the Royal Capetian line of
Burgundy, great grandson of Hugh Capet, Eudes I the RED of Burgundy who
acceded 1079, NINE years before Urban (Eudes) became pope. And Eudes the Red
acceded in that specific year because his brother, Hugh I of Burgundy, had
abdicated to become the Prior of Cluny! Now something is very amiss here ! Is
this just coincidence ? Both were sons of Henry of Burgundy who married Sibylle
of Barcelona. Henry was son of Robert I of Burgundy, who was the son of Hugh
Capet. Barcelona, home of their mother, was part of the Spanish March connected
to Septimania and, here too, the Duke of Aquitaine in 1012 was Eudes of Aquitaine
! And Aquitaine and Septimania are extremely significant :

It happens that Septimania (Languedoc) is exactly where the Jesus-Magdalene

heresy flourished, and where there was a large population of Cathar Jews who
were given independent status by Pepin, Carolingian King. Thence their own kings
ruled as: “seed of the Royal House of David”, each acknowledged as “King of the
Jews”, most famous of whom was Guillem de Gellone, the Prince of Orange.
Confusing this issue, these kings also claimed to be of Merovingian descent ; but
not confusing when one realizes that Jesus was of the House of David and Mary
Magdalene was from the town Magdala, 4 miles from Tiberius, founded by Herod
Antipas, who was an Edomite descendant of Esau with whom Benjaminites
married. Additionally, Absolom, David’s son, who pulled a coup d’etat on his own
father in an attempt to take his throne, had a rebel following who would have
joined the Benjaminite cause. Absalom died when his long hair got caught in
branches in the forest during the Coup. (2 Sam:18:9) And the Merovingians, first
Dynasty of French kings, were the Long Haired Kings!!

“The details of the separate kingdom of Septimania were erased from history
books; but the descendant bloodlines were apparently the “heretical Royal
Bloodlines”as : Dukes of Aquitaine, Dukes of Lorraine, Dukes of Guise; Counts of
Barcelona, Counts of Toulouse, Counts of Auvergne; Counts of Razes. (HBHB, pp
368-371) And it was precisely a Duke of Aquitaine who founded Cluny! Thus,
 368-371) And it was precisely a Duke of Aquitaine who founded Cluny! Thus,
Septimania now becomes extremely important, for now Urban II, descendant of the
Eudes of Septimania and Cluny Prior, is the pope who will call the first Crusades
resulting in the crowning of a direct lineal descendant of Guillem de Gellone,
named Godfroi de Bouillon, Duke of Lorraine , as King of Jerusalem! Aquitaine is
so-named on maps of Second Century Roman Empire and comprised then, the
whole area from Languedoc, South France, to Poitou and Anjou. Septimania was
the area that was later known as the Languedoc.

The pretext for the Crusade—recovery of the Temple treasures and sacred sites—may have
concealed the real motive of the Merovingians, which was to deposit their Grail cache at
Jerusalem. These artifacts will be 'discovered' in the future and used as 'proof' of Merovingian
claims of their 'divine' blood. Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas identify the Merovingian
families who conspired with the Merovingian pope in The Second Messiah: Templars, The
Turin Shroud and the Great Secret of Freemasonry:

"The picture that was emerging was of a group of European noble families,
descended from the Jewish lines of David and Aaron, who had escaped from
Jerusalem shortly before, or possible even just after, the fall of the Temple. They
had passed down the knowledge of the artifacts concealed within the Temple to a
chosen son...of each family. Some of the families involved were the Counts of
Champagne, Lords of Gisors, Lords of Payen, Counts of Fontaine, Counts of
Anjou, de Bouillon, St. Clairs of Roslin, Brienne, Joinville, Chaumont, St Clair de
Gisor, St Clair de Neg and the Hapsburgs...
"By 1095, the members of the Rex Deus families group were almost certainly
fully Christianised, yet each of them must have had at least one male member who
held the traditional history of their high-born Jewish roots close to his heart. No
doubt they saw themselves as 'super-Christians', descendants of the very first
Church, and privy to the greatest secret this side of heaven. They were a silent elite
— 'the kings of God'.
"Indeed, the history books record that [Pope Urban II's] leadership marked the
papacy's assumption of the leadership of Western Christendom...
"If the Rex Deus group did exist, it is easy to see how the First Crusade provided
these families with a 'God-given' opportunity to return to their Holy Temple to
recover the treasure that was their birthright - and it would be done at exactly the
same time that the Jewish writer of the Gospel of John the Divine had predicted!
The Rex Deus families were at the forefront of the First, and every Crusade.
Medieval scholars have long wondered why it should be that the same families
drove all of the Crusades for their entire duration, and now we had a possible
answer.
"Once the Christian armies had secured Jerusalem, the non-Rex Deus leaders
were quickly removed and the families infiltrated the Jerusalem monarchy and the
Church, to ensure that they would not be blocked in the holy endeavor of the 'Kings
of God' to regain what their ancestors had left for them...
"...in 1114...[the Rex Deus group] told Baldwin [King of Jerusalem] that they
wanted to post a small contingent of knights in Jerusalem to carry out some
exploratory digging under the pretext of being...guardians of the highways for
pilgrims... Unfortunately, the king was not persuaded... In 1118, Baldwin I died at
the age of sixty (presumably of natural causes) and his cousin was rapidly crowned
King Baldwin II of Jerusalem. Within weeks, nine French knights were camped on
the site of Herod's stables... The world was told their mission was to save the
Christian pilgrims from the evil Muslim bandits, but their true mission was to
locate and rescue the scrolls and treasures of the Jerusalem Church." - 96:79-83
 locate and rescue the scrolls and treasures of the Jerusalem Church." - 96:79-83

In his book Behold a Pale Horse, William Cooper stated that the real treasure the Templars
absconded with was not the Temple artifacts, but relics pertaining to Jesus Christ, including His
bones! We have wondered for some time how Cooper knew this. Not only did Cooper claim
to know what the relics of Jesus are, but where they are hidden. Underlying Cooper's belief in
this heresy is his rejection of the death, resurrection and ascension of Jesus Christ:

"One of the greatest secrets of the ages is the true story of the Holy Grail, the
robe of Jesus, the remains of the Cross of Crucifixion, and whether Jesus actually
died or if he survived and produced a child. Many myths surround the Knights
Templar concerning these relics, and most myths throughout history have at least
some basis in fact. If my sources are correct, the Knights Templar survive today as
a branch of the Illuminati and guard the relics, which are hidden in a location
known only to them...
"According to members of the intelligence community, when the New World
Order is solidified the relics will be taken out, will be united with the Spear of
Destiny, and will, according to legend, give the world's ruler absolute power. This
may confirm beliefs passed down through the ages that describe the significance of
these relics when united in the hands of one man. It may also explain Hitler's
desperate search for their hiding place during World War II. Again I must remind
you that it makes not one iota of difference what you believe. If they believe, you
will be affected.
"The Knights Templar were founded sometime during the 11th century in
Jerusalem by the Prieure de Sion for the express purpose of guarding the
remaining relics of Jesus and to provide military protection for the religious
travelers during their pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
"The Prieure de Sion was a religious order founded upon Mount Sion in
Jerusalem. The Order set for itself the goal of preserving and recording the
bloodline of Jesus and the House of David. Through every means available to them,
the Prieure de Sion had found and retrieved the remaining relics. I am amazed at
the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail and the information that they have
unearthed. Most of all I am amazed at their inability to put the puzzle together. The
treasure hidden in France is not the treasure of the Temple of Jerusalem. It is the
Holy Grail itself, the robe of Jesus, the last remaining pieces of the Cross of
Crucifixion, and, according to my sources, someone's bones. I can tell you that
the reality of the bones will shake the world to its very foundations if I have
been told the truth. The relics are hidden in France. I know the location and so do
the authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail, but they do not know that they know—or do
they?" - 51:75-6

Holy Blood, Holy Grail and the multitude of Grail publications all purport that the future
revelation of the treasure of Rennes le Chateau, the French village where the Prieuré de Sion
deposited the Templars' Grail cache, will be the undoing of Christianity. The Prieuré obviously
plans to produce, i.e. manufacture, relics which would disprove the death, resurrection and
ascension of Jesus Christ. A French website maintains that this is the famed secret of Rennes le
Chateau:

"...that the treasure of Rennes is not material but that it contains the formal proof
that the crucifixion did not take place and that Jesus was still alive in the year 45 (?
!?!?). Source of this priest: another priest Anglican, Gun Alfred Leslie Lilley, died
in 1940, which had contacts with the modernistic catholic movement (based at the
beginning with St-Sulpice), like with Emile Hoffet." - 948

Returning to the Black Virgin, Ean Begg noted: "The legendary origin of so many statuettes in
the baggage trains of returning crusaders, especially when they happened to be Templars, is no
guarantee of the orthodoxy of their cult. That many legends of the period connect the twelfth-
century Black Virgins with an earlier miraculous origin dating from the Merovingian period
raises potentially disquieting religio-political questions." - 272:14

During the 13th century, the Knights Templar were involved in the financing and otherwise
lending support to the building of over 1,000 churches and cathedrals throughout Europe, many
in honor of the Black Virgin. Following the dissolution of the Templars in 1307, the Prieuré de
Sion carried on quietly mainstreaming the Black Virgin, particularly in France. Laurence
Gardner wrote in Bloodline of the Holy Grail of the astrological configuration of the French
cathedrals: "In accordance with the Hermetic principle of 'As above, so below', the combined
ground-plan of the Notre Dame cathedrals replicates the Virgo constellation... {See The
Mysteries of Chartres Cathedral for this configuration.} The 'Notre Dame' cathedrals...were
mainly the work of the 'Children of Solomon'—a guild of masons instructed by St. Bernard's
Cistercian Order." - 29:264, 66

"The nine Knights were sent out by Bernard the Cistercian; gothic was born at
Citeaux. The whole gothic formula derives from the Cistercians and the
'Compagnons des Devoirs'—heirs of the builders of gothic cathedrals—make no
mystery that they derive their characteristic 'feature', their descriptive geometry,
indispensable for the erection of gothic monuments, from the Cistercian Order.
"1020. This was a notable epoch in Romanesque architecture; the epoch during
which Christianity decked itself with 'a display of white churches'; for this was the
time when after a labour lasting five centuries the Benedictine abbeys succeeded in
constituting a corps, a lay brotherhood of builders, affiliated to the Order, to which
they could appeal for protection if necessary.
"After the abbeys, where they trained their workmen, the Benedictines were able
to put lay builders at the disposal of the secular church, often under the direction of
monastic master-craftsmen...who came to build and teach in Normandy...
"...beneath the aisles and choir of [Chartres Cathedral] called, wrongly, the crypt;
a more exact designation would be 'the lower church'. There is a tradition that the
builders' guilds, at least 'Children of Solomon', held ceremonies of initiation in this
crypt." - 926

The Black Virgin was, in reality, Virgo, the Great Mother Goddess known to the Egyptians as
Isis, who was christened in Alexandria as Mary Magdalene. According to The Cult of the Black
Virgin, the full name of the Prieuré is the Order of the Prieuré Notre Dame de Sion. Former
Grand Master of the Prieuré, Pierre Plantard de Saint Clair, has identified Notre Dame as Our
Lady of the Light, i.e. Lucifer, the Light-Bearer.

"There exists in France an organization that has been in continuous existence since
the twelfth century, that has some features both of an order of chivalry and of a
religious order, though it is not quite either; a secret society which does not spurn the
right sort of publicity; a political grouping with specific aims that is also interested in
ancient esoteric wisdom and hidden mysteries. Its full name is the Order of the
Prieuré Notre Dame de Sion, and its chief aim seems always to have been the
restoration of the Merovingian blood-line to the throne. It is also passionately
concerned with the cult of the Black Virgin and has a remarkable record of equal
rights for women...
 "The Grand Master of the Prieuré 1981-4, Pierre Plantard, is reported as saying
that the Sicambrians, ancestors of the Frankish Merovingians, worshipped Cybele as
Diana of the Nine Fires, or as Arduina, the eponymous goddess of the Ardennes. The
huge idol to Diana/Arduina which once towered over Carignan, in north-east France,
between the Black Virgin sites of Orval, Avioth and Mezièrres, near to Stenay, where
the Merovingian king and saint, Dagobert II, was murdered in 679, points
circumstantially to a link between the two cults. In this connection Plantard mentions
that one of the most important acts of Dagobert, when he acceded to the throne after
his Irish exile, was to continue the ancient tradition of Gaul, the worship of the Black
Virgin. The Black Virgin, he insists, is Isis and her name is Notre-Dame de Lumière."
- 272:14

As stated by Ean Begg, the raison d'être of the Prieuré de Sion is the restoration of the
Merovingian bloodline as the royalty of Europe and even to the position of world domination.
From this bloodline—whose blasphemous claims of divinity refer to intermarriage between the
pre-flood demons and the daughters of men—issued a truly Satanic dynasty of kings. The
Merovingians boast that the founder of their dynasty, King Meroveus, a worshiper of the virgin
goddess Diana of the Nine Fires, was sired by a 'beast of the sea'—Neptune, god of the sea and
founder of Atlantis. According to the author of Bloodline of the Holy Grail:

"Despite the carefully listed genealogies of his time, the heritage of Meroveus was
strangely obscured in the monastic annals. Although the rightful son of Clodion, he
was nonetheless said by the historian Priscus to have been sired by an arcane sea
creature, the Bistea Neptunis... The Sicambrian Franks, from whose female line the
Merovingians emerged were associated with Grecian Arcadia before migrating to
the Rhineland. As we have seen, they called themselves the Newmage — 'People of
the New Covenant', just as the Essenes of Qumran had once been known. It was
the Arcadian legacy that was responsible for the mysterious sea beast—the Bistea
Neptunis— as symbolically defined in the Merovingian ancestry. The relevant sea-
lord was King Pallas, a god of old Arcadia... The immortal sea-lord was said to be
'ever-incarnate in a dynasty of ancient kings' whose symbol was a fish - as was the
traditional symbol of Jesus." - 29:166,175

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise
up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and
upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of
blasphemy. - Rev. 13:1

Not only was Meroveus sired by the sea beast, Neptune, the Merovingian race was sired by the
Nephilim—that demonically-bred race of giants which God destroyed in the Flood. That the
Merovingian bloodline is associated with the subterranean race that inhabits earth's center (Hell)
is confirmed by Dagobert's Revenge, where a review is posted of a book by Kenneth Grant,
who was appointed by Aleister 'The Beast' Crowley to succeed him as Grand Master of the
Ordo Templi Orientis:

"The Nephilim were banished to the center of the earth for disobeying God by
mating with the daughters of men and teaching them the 'forbidden' arts. In this
publication the Nephilim have been identified as the Fathers of the Merovingians...
"...the Merovingian race was sired by a water beast known as the Quinotaur.
This Quinotaur took the form of a sea-bull. Crowley's personal seal was of a sea
goat. Grant, writing of Crowley's Seal of the Beast, says: 'The beast is the sea-goat
or amphibious monster identical with Cthulhu, the Quinotaure or Bull of the Deep.'
Grant writes as a footnote; 'The waters under the earth; home of the 'ancestors' or
 Grant writes as a footnote; 'The waters under the earth; home of the 'ancestors' or
subconscious atavisms of the race.' Is this a reference to the race of the Grail?." -

It was originally from Cain, whose descendants intermarried with the Nephilim, that the Grail
race descended. Enki, the twin brother of Enlil, is merely an anagram of Cain, whose twin was
Abel according to occult belief.

"The mortal world spreads east and west and the land of le invisibles lies above
and below it in the vertical dimensions of height and depths, north and south,
Horus and Set.' This ties in with the Book of Enoch and the Hosts above and the
fallen, banished Nephilim below. This also reminds us of the twins or brother gods
in Sumeria called Enki and Enlil. Enki, the infernal of the two, represents Set and
Enlil represents Horus (although in this context Enlil would also be Osiris.) In
ancient mythologies names and stories can be switched and one god can also be an
attribute of another. It's best to keep this in mind when studying this type of
material. Set kills Osiris as Enki kills Enlil. As it has been shown in another article
of this publication, Enki is associated with Cain, and Cain was a very bad boy.
Enki was an infernal god that has been identified, in this publication, as siring the
Merovingian race.
"...Enki has been associated with Set...who is also Satan...
"...Writing of the Great Old Ones or Elder Gods from Lovecraftian lore, Grant
says, 'The letter M, the key vibration of the plane of the Elder Gods, is represented
mythologically as the sea-goat, Makaru or as the crocodile, the beast of the
waters.' Couldn't Makaru be a form of Merovee who spawned the
Merovingians, and was sired himself from a sea-bull? Tracy Twyman has
already written of the connections between Lovecraft's Necronomicon Mythos and
the Merovingians in her article Dead But Dreaming: The Great Old Ones of
Lovecraftian Legend Reinterpreted as Sumerian/Atlantean Kings..." - 571

"The Eye Over the Throne was a hieroglyph used in Egypt and Sumeria to denote
the world monarchy of the Atlantean Gods. Since here it is called 'Kingu',
obviously he was one of these 'kings', perhaps related etymologically to 'Cain',
whose name is the root from which the word 'king' comes, and who is said to be
one of the eldest ancestors of the Grail family." - 922

According to Blavatsky, after the Flood it was Noah's son, Ham, and his descendants, who
preserved and carried on the occult traditions of Cain, including intermarriage with the gods:

"The history or 'fables' about the mysterious Telchines—fables echoing each and
all the archaic events of our esoteric teachings—furnish us with a key to the origin
of Cain's genealogy (Genesis, ch. iii.); they give the reason why the Roman
Catholic Church identifies 'the accursed blood' of Cain and Ham with Sorcery, and
makes it responsible for the Deluge. Were not the Telchines—it is argued—the
mysterious ironworkers of Rhodes; they who were the first to raise statues to the
gods, furnish them with weapons, and men with magic arts? And is it not they who
were destroyed by a deluge at the command of Zeus, as the Cainites were by that
of Jehovah?" - 897:391

Dagobert's Revenge recommends Tracy Twyman's "Dead But Dreaming: The Great Old Ones
of Lovecraftian Legend Reinterpreted as Sumerian/Atlantean Kings" for information about the
Atlantean gods, the Nephilim, who will rise again when the stars are in the right position.
According to this informative article, the Nephilim preserved their occult traditions within the
According to this informative article, the Nephilim preserved their occult traditions within the
oath-bound secret societies which are now programming the younger generation to accept the
Grail mythology as true.

"The Secret Doctrine given to the elite castes of mankind by the Nephilim or the
'Annunaki', the gods of ancient Sumeria and Atlantis, has been passed down
through the ages, not only to the Masons, Templars, Rosicrucians, and other
fraternal orders which perpetuate the tradition, but also to the teenage geeks and D
& D 'gamers' of today via the [H.P.] Lovecraft/Necronomicon lore, which has given
birth to a cornucopia of role-playing and computer games, in much the same way
that Monty Python and the Society for Creative Anachronism have kept alive the
Grail myth for these same teenagers." - 922

Twyman quotes The Necronomian, "a volume written in Damascus in the Eighth Century, A.D.,
by a person called the 'Mad Arab', Abdul Alhazred... This book, according to the mythos,
contains the formulae for evoking incredible things into visible appearance, beings and monsters
which dwell in the Abyss, and Outer Space, of the human psyche." The Necronomicon, or
"Book From the Dead" consists of messages from the ancient gods of Lemuria and Atlantis,
who foretell that, when the stars are rightly positioned in the heavens, will be the opportune
time for performing blood rituals to effect the resurrection of these 'sleeping' gods and their
human offspring:

"'There had been eons when other things ruled on the Earth, and they had had
great cities. Remains of them, he said the deathless Chinaman had told him, were
still to be found as Cyclopean stones on islands in the Pacific. They all died vast
epochs of time before man came, but there were arts which could revive them when
the stars had come round again to the right positions in the cycle of eternity. They
had indeed come themselves from the stars, and brought their images with them.'
"Lovecraft, like Enoch, and like ancient man himself, conceived of the ancient
Atlantean gods or Nephilim as possessing supernatural power, and, like Enoch,
says that this power comes from the stars, that these beings in fact had come from
the stars themselves, and seemed to be metaphysically affected by the movement of
the stars, being able to resurrect from the dead only when the stars were in a certain
position.
"Likewise, the Atlantean god-kings purposely associated themselves with the
stars and the planets, taking on the personifications of planets and constellations,
each of which had a particular 'energy' or 'plain of existence' associated with it.
This energy could be further manipulated by the prayers and rituals of the cult
members who are loyal to the Great Old Ones, and wish to see their kingdom rise
again, in much the same way that Masons, Rosicrucians and other occultists today
perform rituals in hope of bringing about the 'Great Work' called the 'New World
Order', a new Golden Age just like the one that covered the Antediluvian world
when the Atlantean god-kings (whom they revere) ruled over the Earth directly.
The Eye in the Pyramid on our dollar bill, which represents the New World Order,
is clearly a symbol of this newly-risen kingdom of Atlantis, 'watched over' (as in
'the Watchers') by the All-Seeing Eye, which could just as easily be the eye of
Dagon, or Leviathan, or Cthulhu. It even looks reptilian, like it belongs on the face
of a dragon.
"The rise of R'lyeh, the New World Order, the New Atlantis, the New Jerusalem,
the Golden Age, and even the Apocalypse - these are all terms for the same
resurrection of the ancient global kingdom of the gods. Such a resurrection is also
described in Aleister Crowley's The Book of the Law when he writes about the
coming 'Age of Horus' and the return of the rule of the gods, as well as their
 coming 'Age of Horus' and the return of the rule of the gods, as well as their
offspring, the human 'kings'." - 922

Alice Bailey associated the Grail bloodline with the sign of Virgo: "Virgo itself is a cup-shaped
constellation...; in its highest meaning the Holy Grail." Along with descent from immortal sea
beasts, the Prieuré de Sion also alleges to have "incontrovertible proof" of Merovingian descent
from Jesus Christ and His continuing bloodline, and has been working to reestablish the power
of the Merovingian dynasty, this time over a world kingdom.

However, even Baigent, Leigh and Lincoln have admitted, "while the Merovingian royal blood
was credited with a sacred, miraculous, and divine nature, it was not explicitly stated anywhere
that this blood was in fact Jesus." Claims of direct descent from Jesus—who is at best another
Jesus, Yeshu, an Essene adept who saves by giving gnosis rather than shedding his blood—and
Mary Magdalene (the holy grail or womb which bore this other Jesus' children) are merely
attempts to Christianize the demonic bloodline which will place Lucifer on the throne of this
world.

'THE MOTHER PRECEDES THE SON'

...the constellation Virgo, which in fact rises just before the star Arcturus.
(Virgo)

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the
sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve
stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be
delivered. - Rev. 12:1,2

"Thus, in conclusion, we greet Mary as the great sign in the heavens

which precedes the coming of her Son, because the mother always
precedes the son. We greet her as the one who at Fatima wanted to bring
peace to the world if we fulfilled the demands of her maternal heart... We
greet her as the Victor in all the battles of God, and as the Mother of the
Church who will bring the Good Friday of the Church to an end and give
it a new Easter." - Bishop Rudolph Graber, Fatima Advancing Rapidly
Towards Final Fulfillment - 929

A New Easter? Of course. The feast of the Mother Goddess, Ishtar.

During the Renaissance, that medieval period when the occult traditions flooded Europe from
the Mideast, Chartres Cathedral was built on a sacred site in France where ancient Druids
worshipped the Mother Goddess. A World Heritage Site famous for its Gothic
architecture—and, to the initiated, its thoroughly pagan symbolism—Chartres Cathedral is
known to occultists as the 'Golden Book' that reinstated the philosophy of classical Greece in
the mainstream of Christian Europe. The cathedral expresses through 'sacred geometry' and
astrological symbolism the Gnostic belief that "Man can compass his salvation by means of
knowledge", referring to gnosis. Within its massive structure was housed a mystery school
which operated as a theological academy for over two centuries. In the underground crypt of the
cathedral, initiates worshipped a replica of a Druidic statue known as the 'Virgini Pariturae' or
'the virgin about to give birth'. The Templar Chronicles calls the Virgini Pariturae "the Virgo
who must give birth".

The statue in the underground chapel was also called Our Lady Under the Earth because the
crypt, where initiations took place, was believed to be connected to telluric powers, i.e. the
crypt, where initiations took place, was believed to be connected to telluric powers, i.e. the
underworld. On the west front of Chartres Cathedral is featured in the tympanum of the right
portal—the Gate of Birth—a statue identical to the Virgini Pariturae in the underground
chamber. The exterior icon was and still is venerated by the profane masses of Catholics as
Mary, the 'Mother of God'. Exoterically the white virgin on the west facade is the Blessed
Virgin Mary who gave birth two thousand years ago; but esoterically, she is the black virgin
who was still pregnant with child.

"The Druid's love of inner journeys and their visions inspired their prophesies
about the woman that would bring a saviour into the world. This pregnant woman
is the black madonna we often find in medieval shrines throughout Europe. If the
white virgin is the one who has already given birth, the black virgin is the pregnant
woman of the druid's vision." - 931

The photos below show 'Mary' in a position identical to the other Black Virgins we have seen
above—enthroned and with a child on her lap, or rather between her thighs!! The Gemini
figures, representing twins, are difficult to recognize; see the left arch on a level with the twelve
apostles.

The occult symbolism of this most famous of the medieval cathedrals is discussed in the
Masonic book, Rosslyn: Guardian of the Secrets of the Holy Grail. According to authors Tim
Wallace-Murphy and Marilyn Hopkins, the seven mystical cathedrals of Europe were
deliberately founded on Druidic sites dedicated to planetary oracles. There is a prophecy that,
when the planets align in the same configuration as the cathedrals, the time of transition into the
New Age will have arrived. The sacred site upon which Chartres Cathedral was erected was
dedicated by the Druids to the Sun.

"The Druids, like most initiatory tribal cultures, woshipped the principle of the
Eternal Feminine as the source of all fertility. Julius Caesar describes, in de Bello
 Eternal Feminine as the source of all fertility. Julius Caesar describes, in de Bello
Gallico, the veneration accorded to a fire-blackened, female figurine which was
worshipped at a Druidic sacred grotto at Carnutum, now the modern city of
Chartres...—a fertility symbol he called Virgini Pariturae, the virgin about to give
birth... It was at Chartres that the Church adopted the veneration of the fire-
blackened, Druidic figurine Virgini Pariturae in the guise of the Black Madonna. A
medieval replica of the Druidic figure is found in the crypt, which the official guide
states categorically was used as an initiation chamber. " - 266:49,163

The Virgin portrayed in the west facade of Chartres Cathedral is called the 'Virgini Pariturae',
which means "the virgin about to give birth". This statue does not represent Mary or the
Biblical concept of womanhood, but the archetypal goddesses of fertility and the 'feminine
prinicple'. Since Chartres was dedicated to the Sun-God, the child of the sculpture is Horus, not
Jesus Christ. The following excerpt from Rosslyn reveals how Gnostic occultism engulfed
Western Christendom through the occult infiltration of the Roman Church.

"The revelations of the ancient mysteries brought about a deep insight into the laws
of all natural phenomena, revealing the very unity in nature which is the mainspring
of creation, and the importance of the principle of the eternal feminine. To
commemorate this heretical and pagan concept, they carved a replica of the Druidic
statue 'Virgini Pariturae', the virgin about to give birth, which had been a focus of
worship at Chartres in pre-Christian times. To avoid persecution and to enable this
powerful symbol to exert its influence the statue was carved in the guise of Mary
the Mother of God with the infant Jesus seated on her lap. This symbolic
representation of fertility and the archetypal feminine rests in the crypt of Chartres
to this day. It is known as Notre-Dame de Sous-Terre—Our Lady Under the Earth.
A replica of this figurine was then carved in the place of honour above the main
portal of the cathedral. After many years of theological dispute with the Orthodox
Church in the East, Roman Catholicism had at long last stumbled across the perfect
answer to the problems posed by the ambiguities inherent in the title 'Mother of
God'. In emphasizing Mary's role, the Church was fulfilling a deep and long-felt
need among its adherents by importing the pagan principle of the eternal feminine
into the previously male-dominated and patriarchal realm of the Holy Trinity. Early
Christians had taken up the theology of St. Paul which described Jesus as the
'Second Adam'. They then fell into the theological trap by calling Mary the 'Second
Eve', so reviving the old pagan concept of the divine son/spouse relationship as
found in the Ishtar and Tammuz cult of ancient Babylonia and in the worship of
Isis and Osiris in Pharaonic Egypt. This form of veneration also incorporated the
concept of Sophia the goddess of Wisdom. The Church attempted to exert control
over this Marian cult in its traditional manner by taking over pre-Christian forms of
worship and sacred sites dedicated to various goddesses, renaming them in honour
of the Holy Virgin. The symbolism, prayers and litanies associated with Demeter,
Cybele, Ishtar and Isis were adopted and given a Christian veneer. - 266:87-89

Wallace-Murphy and Ms. Hopkins credit the Merovingian infiltrators for the stunning success
of Mariolotry in Roman Catholicism: "It is ironic that Mariolotry, one of the major and most
pervasive aspects of modern Catholicism, should have been further strengthened by the spiritual
understanding of hidden initiates in the Middle Ages." (266:89)

The pagan principle of the eternal feminine asserts that the Mother Goddess ruled over the first
age of earth, corresponding to Lemuria, which supposedly achieved the highest level of
civilization ever known to man. It is the same Gnostic principle which Bishop Graber and the
present Pope fundamentally espouse, viz., that the divine feminine, masquerading as Mary,
present Pope fundamentally espouse, viz., that the divine feminine, masquerading as Mary,
chronologically preceded and therefore gave divine life to her Son. As previously stated, one
significant outcome of the Nestorian heresy was to give priority to the Mother Goddess, the
pagan feminine archetype, over her Son. There are, however, esoteric connotations in Bishop
Graber's statement, which which only the initiated fully understand.

"...we greet Mary as the great sign in the heavens which precedes the coming of her
Son..."

Bishop Graber's prediction is generally construed as an apparition of Mary, the Mother of

God. Pope John Paul II is expecting a manifestation of Mary similar to the 'Miracle of the Sun'
at Fatima, Portugal on October 13, 1917. On this occasion, the sun appearing as "a solar
disc...spun upon itself in a mad whirl...and whirling wildly, seemed all at once to loosen itself
from the firmament and, blood red, advance threateningly upon the earth as if to crush us with
its huge and fiery weight." (938) Catholics believe that a recurrence of this miracle would
vindicate the Catholic Church as the 'one true Church'.

Although Roman Catholics perceive this apparition as a visitation of Mary, the mother of Jesus,
New Agers recognize the many occult phenomena which attended the solar event at Fatima.
According to a published eye-witness account of the Fatima apparition, the sun took on the
appearance of a solar disk, an ancient occult symbol of the sun. (See solar disk symbol and
explanation.) On October 13, 1917, the sun would have risen in the sign of Virgo; also the
Moon was in Virgo. Bishop Graber has predicted that a sign will precede the coming of Christ.
And not just a sign, but a great sign! Was the Bishop referring to Virgo, the Great Mother
Goddess?

On Friday, October 13 in the year 1307 A.D., the Knights Templars were arrested by King
Philip IV of France in collusion with Pope Clement V. Might the Fatima vision in 1917 have
been a sign of the coming vengeance determined upon Rome by the Templars? Bishop Graber,
whose associations include Knight of Malta, Peter Beyerhaus, may be sending an esoteric
message that Virgo will be the sign in the heavens which will precede the coming of Horus, the
pagan messiah who will avenge the Knights Templars by destroying the Roman Catholic
Church.

Should another Fatima-type apparition occur in the sign of Virgo, perhaps at Medjugorje, such
an event would hardly vindicate Roman Catholicism as the 'one true Church.' To the contrary,
another such apparition displaying overtly occult phenomena would probably provide the death
warrant needed to overthrow this Harlot Church which has, in recent times, scandalized the
world with reports of homosexuality and pedophilia in its priesthood.

Since few are wise to the Merovingian infiltration and takeover of the Roman Catholic Church
or that celibacy, homosexuality and pederasty are sacred rites of the Merovingians; and given
that the secret societies under the oversight of the Prieuré de Sion control the news media
which has sensationalized these scandals — and considering the effectiveness of this ingenious
and carefully executed plan, we submit that the mighty fall of this citadel of Christendom is a
fait accompli.

...and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full

of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten
horns... And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the
beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall make her
desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her
with fire. - Revelation 17:16
 with fire. - Revelation 17:16

THE REAL MESSAGE OF THE ZODIAC

In stark contrast to the thesis of so-called Christian publications which promote astrology as the
'gospel in the stars'—that the Zodiac presents the story of salvation—the fact is that the signs of
the occultists' imaginary Zodiac tell quite another story. It is an epic tale of the planned
reconquest of civilization by the powers of darkness, who were defeated and put to an open
shame by Jesus Christ at the Cross. The following sections expose the real message of the
Zodiac for the sake of those who will be in danger of being deceived by this false gospel during
the Tribulation period.

"A number of times the Scripture refers to Jesus as 'The Branch.'

Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH' (Zechariah 6:12).
That is one of the names in the Old Testament for the coming of
the Messiah. Also, concerning the Branch, we read in Zechariah

'In that day shall the branch of the Lord be beautiful and glorious.'
(Isaiah 4:2a). He is the servant, He is a man, He is God; He is the
God-man, Jesus, who has come... A confirmatory of this is that the

THE MEROVINGIAN DYNASTY

Although the constellations in the heavens do not form configurations that are definitively
human, animal or vegetable, promoters of the false 'Gospel in the Stars' are of the same opinion
as astrologers that Virgo holds a Branch, and that this Branch represents 'the Christ' who will
come to redeem the world. E. W. Bullinger actually stated: "The day has here come to fulfill
the prophecies concerning Him who is 'the Branch,' 'the Branch of Jehovah,' 'the man whose
name is the Branch.'" (939) Knowing that Virgo is the Great Mother Goddess of pagan
religions, the Scriptures Kennedy and Bullinger have cited will undoubtedly be used to validate
a false Christ who will be promoted as 'The Branch' and whose name will actually mean
"branch".

And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the
man whose name is The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he
shall build the temple of the LORD: - Zech. 6:12

Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that I will raise unto David a righteous
BRANCH, and a King shall reign and prosper, and shall execute judgment and
justice in the earth. In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely:
and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR
RIGHTEOUSNESS. - Jer. 23:5,6

In that day shall the BRANCH of the LORD be beautiful and glorious... - Is. 4:2

Isaiah 14 also mentions a branch. In the King James Version, this chapter describes the fall of
Lucifer who will one day incarnate the Antichrist in his attempt to destroy the world:

How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut
down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine
heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I
will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will
ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt
 be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that see thee shall narrowly
look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man that made the earth to
tremble, that did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a wilderness, and
destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his prisoners? All the
kings of the nations, even all of them, lie in glory, every one in his own house. But
thou art cast out of thy grave like an ABOMINABLE BRANCH, and as the
raiment of those that are slain, thrust through with a sword, that go down to the
stones of the pit; as a carcase trodden under feet. - Is. 14:12-19

From the 5th to the 8th centuries, the Merovingian dynasty of kings ruled Europe and, from the
Middle Ages until the present day, most of Europe's monarchs have been of Merovingian
lineage. In 679 A.D., the Roman Catholic Church collaborated with the Carolingian dynasty to
assassinate the Merovingian King, Dagobert II. Dagobert's nephew, Childeric III, was deposed
in 751 by Pepin III, the first of the Carolingian dynasty. The removal of the Merovingian kings
culminated with the coronation of Charlemagne, who became the Holy Roman Emperor in 800.
Ironically, Charlemagne and the Carolingians married Merovingian wives in order to guarantee
the continuation of their dynasty. This would account for the perpetuity of the Merovingian
bloodline in the royalty of Europe.

“In the [8th] century the Merovingian Dynasty of France was overthrown by the
mayors of the Merovingian Palaces, the Carolingians (741). But Carolingians were
also a major part of the Jesus–Magdalene heresy, as we shall soon see. They took
Merovingian wives to assure that the heretical 'divine' bloodline was preserved
twofold. The Carolingian empire became the unholy Holy Roman Empire under
Charlemagne who became the first Emperor, a huge coup.” - 550

"In fact, to consolidate his claim to the throne of the Franks, Charlemagne had
himself married a Merovingian princess." - 936

After the death of Dagobert II, the Merovingian bloodline continued in the personage of
Sigisbert IV, who fled to the south of France, to the village of Rennes le Chateau in Razes.
Sigisbert assumed the name of "the Plant-Ard", which means "sapling" or "branch" and the title
of the Count of Razes. "Plant-Ard" evolved into the surname Plantard:

"...Dagobert II climbed on the throne but he was assassinated in 679 as well as

his son Sigebert IV according to the official history...
"The Merovingian dynasty continued formally with Thierry IV and Childéric III
who was removed in 751 and this was the end of the dynasty. According to the
parchment found by Saunière, and this could be true according to some historians,
Sigebert IV escaped and arrived in the Razes on the 17 of January 681 where he
took refuge with his grand father. Dagobert II had as a second wife Gisèle, the
daughter of Béra II the count of Razès. The Merovingian line included, after
Sigebert IV (676-758) also known as the 'Plant-Ard' - from whom Mr
Plantard took his name!-: Sigebert V (695-768), Bera III (715-771), Guillemon,
Bera IV (755-836), Bera V (794-860), Hildéric I and finally Sigebert VI known as
'Ursus'. From this lineage came the Blanchefort family who gave three centuries
later a Templar Grand Master, Bertrand de Blanchefort... According to the
parchment found by Saunière the lineage did not stop with Sigebert VI but
continued up to this date although nobody claimed the French throne."- 856

"According to the latest documents the Merovingian dynasty is now alive in the
Plantard family (we must remember that Saint Dagobert II' son, Sigebert IV was
also known as "Plant Ard or Rejeton Ardent")." The phrase means Burning Kid!

Another prophecy pertaining to the Messiah is Isaiah 53:2: For he shall grow up before him as a
tender PLANT, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when
tender PLANT, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when
we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

To further authenticate their pseudo-divine lineage, the Merovingian genealogies have Sigisbert
IV, the 'Plant-Ard' or Branch, married to "Magdala", who is blasphemously identified as a
descendant of Mary Magdalene and Jesus Christ.

"...the marriage of Dagobert II and Giselle of Razes combined the two

bloodlines, that of the Holy Family and that of a pagan divine beast, the Quinotaur.
The connection between the Merovingians and the Holy Family seems to have been
hind-shadowed by this union of the bloodlines, when indeed they would seem from
contemporary sources to be a kind of Pendragon lineage, such as Vortigern and
Arthur in Britain. In Sigisbert IV, it appears the bloodlines of the divine king and
the world teacher combined.
"Given the events of his childhood, it is natural that Sigsbert, the new Count of
Rhedae, kept a low profile. The only solid evidence of his existence is a charter for
a monastery signed in 718 by 'Sigebert, Comte de Rhedae, and his wife Magdala'."
- 873 (Book 1, Chap. 9)

Sigisbert and Magdala were most assuredly not descendants of Jesus Christ and Mary
Magdalene; rather their Pendragon lineage refers to descent from Uther Pendragon, the father of
King Arthur and Head Dragon of the Druidic Dragon Court:

"The Pendragon, or 'Head Dragon of the Island'...was the King-of-Kings and

'Guardian of the Celtic Isle'. The title was not dynastic; Pendragons were appointed
from Celtic royal stock by a Druidic council of elders...
"The concept of the dragon in Celtic mythology emerged directly from the holy
crocodile (the Messeh) of the ancient Egyptians. The Pharaohs were anointed with
crocodile fat, and thereby attained the fortitude of the Messeh (Thus
Messiah—Anointed One). The image of the intrepid Messeh evolved to become the
Dragon, which in turn became emblematic of mighty kingship." - 29:183

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan...
Rev. 12:9

Jesus said unto them...Ye are of your father the devil... John 8:42,44

The Merovingian dynasty was deposed in 800 A.D., but perpetuated itself in a direct line from
Dagobert II through his son Sigisbert IV. From this bloodline came Godfroi de Bouillon, who
captured Jerusalem in 1099 and formed the Knights Templars, as well as the Prieuré de Sion.
Recall that the Society of Ormus which originated in Alexandria, Egypt had relocated to
Calabria, Italy and that, in 1070 AD, twenty-nine years before the first Crusade, the Calabrian
monks removed to Ardennes Forrest in France, part of the domains of Godfroi de Bouillon who
was the Duke of Lorraine.

"The First Crusade (A.D. 1098) could then conceivably have been an attempt to
restore an heir of the Davidic bloodline to the throne of Jerusalem in the person of
Godfroi of Bouillon (also known as Godfroi of Lorraine), who was, according to
legend, of Merovingian lineage... This secret cabal called the Priory of Sion, was
reputed to have been formed by Godfroi of Lorraine to protect the interests of the
bloodline." - 936:63

The Templar Revelation lists among the Merovingian Rex Deus families who strategized the
First Crusade the "Counts of Champagne, Lords of Gisors, Lords of Payen, Counts of Fontaine,
Counts of Anjou, de Bouillon, St. Clairs of Roslin, Brienne, Joinville, Chaumont, St Clair de
Gisor, St Clair de Neg and the Hapsburgs..." Godfroi de Bouillon who became the King of
Jerusalem and first Grand Master of the Knights Templar was a descendant of King Dagobert
Jerusalem and first Grand Master of the Knights Templar was a descendant of King Dagobert
through Hugues de Plantard. From these families descended the Saint-Clair (Sinclair) and
Plantard bloodlines, as well as the Hapsburg dynasty which is allied with Plantard through the
House of Lorraine.

"...Although it was deposed in the eighth century, the Merovingian bloodline did
not become extinct... By dint of dynastic alliances and intermarriages, this line
came to include Godfroi de Bouillon, who captured Jerusalem in 1099, and various
other noble and royal families, past and present—Blanchefort, Gisors, Saint-Clair—
Sinclair in England...Plantard, and Habsburg-Lorraine...
"...in the tenth century a certain Hugues de Plantard...a literal descendant of both
Dagobert and Guillem de Gellon—became the father of Eustache, the first count of
Boulogne. Eustache's grandson was Godfroi de Bouillon, duke of Lorraine and
conqueror of Jerusalem. And from Godfroi there issued a dynasty and a 'royal
tradition' that, by virtue of being founded on 'the rock of Sion,' was equal to those
presiding over France, England, and Germany. If the Merovingians were indeed
descended from Jesus, then Godfroi—scion of the Merovingian blood royal—had,
in his conquest of Jerusalem, regained his rightful heritage...
"There are at least a dozen families in Britain and Europe today—with
numerous collateral branches—who are of Merovingian lineage. These include the
houses of Hapsburg-Lorraine (present titular dukes of Lorraine and kings of
Jerusalem), PLANTARD, Luxembourg, Montpezat, Montesquiou, and various
others. According to the 'Prieuré documents,' the SINCLAIR family in Britain is
also allied to the bloodline, as are various branches of the Stuarts..." - 31:107, 396,
409-10

The first Angevin dynasty was known from the 12th century as the Plantagenet dynasty through
the House of Anjou which produced King Henry II and subsequent kings:

"In Breton, ard means art or craft and plantan can mean to implant, such that a
possible sense to Plantard is an `implant(er) of skill or divine magic'...
"Geoffrey Plante Genest, count of Anjou and Maine was the father of king
Henry II of England and, amongst others, Hamelyn (Plantagenet), Warren earl of
Surrey (London). The first evidence for the Pl(a/e)nte name in England is found in
1219, just after the times of Henry II's son, the lecherous king John.
"In 1200, king John married Isabella of Angouleme in Aquitaine who
subsequently married Hugh de Lusignan, the most prominent baron of Aquitaine.
In 1247, John (Plantagenet) (de Warenne) married Alice Lusignan (de Brien) and
English resentments of favouritism towards the `foreign' Lusignans led on to the
Baron's revolt in England, leading to the capture of king Henry III at Lewes (1264),
though the king was freed by John (Plantagenet) (de Warenne) at Evesham (1265)."
- 950

"The Plantagenets were themselves a junior branch of the House of Anjou, whose
senior branch was the House of Vere [whose] ancestry was jointly Pictish and
Merovingian descending from the ancient Grail House of Scythia." - 248:8

"According to the 'Prieuré documents' the lords of Anjou-Plantagenet family were

thus allied to the Merovingian bloodline. And the name of Plantagenet may even
have been intended to echo 'Plant-ard' or Plantard.'" - 31:302

According to Fritz Springmeier's Top Thirteen Illuminati Bloodlines, "The original start of the
Prieuré de Sion appears to have been the idea of a number of powerful bloodlines, and included
various descendants of the Merovingians, including the House of Lorraine, the House of Guise,
the Medicis, Sforzas, the Estes, the Gonzagas, and the St. Clairs (Sinclairs). The Medicis are
tied to the Black Nobility.
 "From the beginning the Prieuré de Sion has been committed to Hermetic Magic...
René d' Anjou, a descendant of the Merovingians persuaded Cosimo de Medici to
establish in c. 1444 a non-church library at San Marco where Plato, Pythagorean
works, and books on Hermetic Magic were translated. Up until this time, the
Catholic church had control of all the libraries. It was from Cosimo de Medici's
library that the spark of Greek and Egyptian teachings set off what developed into
the Renaissance, which was a revival of humanism and the occult. It appears that
during the Middle Ages, witchcraft and the mystery religions had seriously
dissolved to the point that these modes of thought had to be relearned from the
ancient writings. Interestingly, the Middle Ages when witchcraft and paganism
were dissolving have been branded the 'Dark Ages' by the establishment, and
inaccurately painted as a time when learning went out." - 77:79

The Merovingian families which ruled France, England and Germany included the Hapsburg-
Lorraine dynasty which, in the twentieth century, played a major role in the formation of the
European Union.

"Prominent in the Wars of Religion was the noble French family of de Guise...
[T]hey disputed the legitimacy of the Valois succession, and claimed their own
right to the throne by virtue of descent from the Emperor Charlemagne through the
House of Lorraine." - 29:307

"The Imperial and Royal Dragon Court is the ancient Household Court and
Order of the senior Angevin descendants of the Imperial and Royal House of Vere
of Caledonia, Anjou and Lorraine, and the physical embodiment of the sovereign
Princedom of Drakenberg, which is recognized under European Law as a sovereign
ethnic racial group; the principal nation states of the Draconian peoples:...
"Furthermore, the royal and ambassadorial nature of the title of the Prince of
Drakenberg (Princeps Draconis) is recognised under the 'Official Observations' of
the Department of Internal Affairs of the Government of its state of origin within
the European Union." - 357

PIERRE PLANTARD DE SAINT-CLAIR

There are compelling reasons for our conviction that the Antichrist will come from the Plantard
and Saint-Clair bloodlines. Supporting evidence for this view will be presented throughout this
series, as well as information leading to discovery of the identity of the False Prophet, a
Merovingian as well.

The Messianic Legacy states that Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire joined the Prieuré de Sion on
July 10, 1943 and, from 1963 to 1981, shared the position of Grand Master with Gaylord
Freeman, also of an Illuminati bloodline. (232:319;235-6) According to Holy Blood, Holy
Grail, Plantard de Saint-Claire was Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion from 1981 to 1984.

"A veritable secret society of 121 dignitaries, the Prieuré de Sion, founded by
Godfroi de Bouillon in Jerusalem in 1099, has numbered among its Grand Masters
Leonardo da Vinci, Victor Hugo and Jean Cocteau. This Order convened its
Convent at Blois on 17 January 1981... As a result of this recent Convent at Blois,
Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire was elected grand master of the Order... This
choice of grand master marks a decisive step in the evolution of the Order's
conception and spirit in relation to the world; for the 121 dignitaries of the Prieuré
de Sion are all éminences grises of high finance and of international political or
philosophical societies; and Pierre Plantard is the direct descendant, through
Dagobert II, of the Merovingian kings. His descent has been proved legally by the
parchments of Queen Blanche of Castile, discovered by the Abbe Sauniére in the
church at Rennes-le-Château (Aude) in 1891. These documents were sold by the
priest's niece in 1965 to Captain Roland Stanmore and Sir Thomas Frazer, and were
 priest's niece in 1965 to Captain Roland Stanmore and Sir Thomas Frazer, and were
deposited in a safe-deposit box of Lloyds Bank Europe Limited of London."
(31:214-15)

It seems that, following World War II, the Prieuré de Sion, and particularly Pierre Plantard,
were intimately involved with the rise of Charles De Gaulle to the presidency of
France.(232:318) The Messianic Legacy states: "Under the German occupation and the Vichy
regime, secret societies, including freemasonry, had been strictly banned and membership of
any such organisation was subject to severe penalties." The Vichy government would be
supplanted courtesy of the Prieuré de Sion:

"It is hard for people to grasp that the Illuminati controlled Russia, Great Britain,
Germany and France during World War II, but they did. Churchill, Roosevelt and
Stalin were all Masons. DeGaulle of France was closely linked with several esoteric
groups, and the Prieuré de Sion and Grand Orient Masons helped him to power in
the 50s... the people of the world weren't ready for a world government, and most
not even a united Europe. W.W. II was carried out to adjust people's thinking
toward wanting European unity." (77:168)

Front organizations were formed to agitate for change, and the Prieuré de Sion assisted in the
military coup that overthrew the Vichy government, clearing the way for DeGaulle.

"Modelled on the Committees of Public Safety during the French Revolution...the

Committees [of Public Safety] began to agitate for a strong guiding hand in France
which would be sympathetic to their cause. Only one person was deemed capable of
providing such a hand—Charles de Gaulle. Thus the Committees of Algeria began to
press insistently for De Gaulle to assume power in France, if necessary by means of a
military coup. They received support from a number of high-ranking military men,
including Marshal Alphonse Juin, who is alleged to have been an important member
of the Prieuré de Sion. They also received support from a coalescing pro-Gaullist
movement in France...whose leaders included Michel Debre--who became De Gaulle's
Minister of Justice and, shortly after, between 1959 and 1962, Prime Minister of
France. Another important pro-Gaullist figure was Geoges Bidault... Between 1945
and 1954, Bidault had worked closely with Robert Schuman...in drawing up plans for
the EEC..." (232:330)

After De Gaulle was installed as President, however, he granted Algeria independence from
France, which weakened France as an imperial power. Therefore, DeGaulle appointed Pierre
Plantard secretary of a national 'Movement' for the defense of liberty to succeed the
Committees. As "minister of propaganda," Plantard proceeded to dismantle and thereby defuse
the Committees of Public Safety which might turn against DeGaulle. The announcement was
published by Plantard's first wife, Anne Lea Hisler:

"When we first met M. Plantard in 1979, he told us that Charles de Gaulle had
personally requested him to direct the French Committees of Public Safety and, when
their task of installing the General in power had been completed, to preside over their
dissolution. In a mimeographed pamphlet deposited with the Bibliothèque Nationale in
1964, Anne Lea Hisler—M. Plantard's first wife—states:
"Under the authority of Marshal Alphonse Juin, the seat of the Secretariat-General
of the Committees of Public Safety in metropolitan France was at Aulnay-sous-Bois
[Paris suburb]. This Committee was directed by Michel Debré, Pierre Plantard known
as Way, and André Malraux...a member of the Prieure de Sion." (232:333,256)

Anne Lea Hisler, Plantard's wife, worked with her husband on the magazine of the Prieuré de Sion,
CIRCUIT, an acronym for "Chivalry of Catholic Rules and Institutions of the Independent and
Traditionalist Union."
 "...the Prieuré de Sion was using its magazine for something other than its own
internal business. The 1959 series of Circuit [contained] articles by Anne Lea Hisler
and others, including Pierre Plantard, sometimes writing under his own name,
sometimes under the pseudonym of 'Chyren'." (232:339-40)

The name "Hisler" is an adaptation of "Hitler." The Decatur Daily reported, "Fifty-seven years
after his death, Hitler's name still has shock value, which may explain why so many people named
Hitler - both in the United States and abroad - had their names legally changed during World War
II. (I know a man named Hisler whose family name was spelled with a 't' instead of an 's' 60 years
ago.) (1055)

The prophecies of Nostradamus included "...a number of detailed prophecies concerning Hitler
(whom he calls Hisler), naming him as the 'second antiChrist'."

Was Anne Lea Hisler really Anne Lea Hitler??? Is it possible that the wife of Pierre Plantard de
Saint-Clair was related to the infamous Adolf Hitler???

The Templar Revelation confirms other reports of that Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire at least had
Nazi sympathies:

"Born in 1920, he first came to public notice in the Occupied France of 1942 as the
editor of a journal called Vaincre pour une Jeune cehvalerie (Conquest for a Young
Knighthood)—which was markedly uncritical of the Nazi oppressors, and which was
actually published with their approval. This was officially the organ of the Order
Alpha Galates, a quasi-Masonic and chivalric society, based in Paris, of which
Plantard became the Grand Master at the age of just twenty-two...Vaincre is now
[1998] the title of the Priory's internal bulletin, which Pierre de Saint-Clair edits with
his son Thomas." (242:43)

If Anne Lea Hisler was a relation of Adolf Hitler, Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair would be related
by marriage to the House of Rothschild (See: Mystery Babylon: The Zionists) and his children
would be Rothschilds. The surname "Rothschild," in fact, stands for "Ruth's Child," signifying the
House of Rothschild's presumption to the Messianic lineage of David and entitlement to redeem
the land of Israel. (See: Heeding Bible Prophecy: New Israel)

Two observations are in order:

1. Although Mayer Amschel Rothschild purchased the land of Israel (1836), Hitler may
be credited with creating the demand for and populating the State of Israel a century
later.
Without Hitler, there could be no present Israel.
2. It is doubtful the House of Rothschild would shell out their vast fortune to place on
the throne of the coming world kingdom someone other than one of their own.

THOMAS PLANTARD DE SAINT-CLAIR

The Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion since 1989 has been Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair.
According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Thomas is the son of the former Grand Master, the late
Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair. The following announcement of Thomas' election as Grand
Master was published in the internal bulletin of the Prieuré de Sion in 1989, and only recently
posted on the Internet.

Vaincre No. 3, September 1989, page 1

Managing Editor: Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair
110 Rue Henri Dunant, 92700 COLOMBES
 THOMAS PLANTARD de Saint-Clair
becomes Grandmaster of the PRIORY OF SION

By virtue of Article XIV OF THE CONSTITUTIONS OF THE PRIORY OF

SION: "their titles shall fall as of right to one of their children to be
designated by them without consideration of sex."

By virtue of article XVI "the various duties and titles of Grandmaster of the
Priory of Sion shall be transmissible to their successor according to the same
prerogatives."

By act dated 6 JULY 1989, Pierre PLANTARD de SAINT-CLAIR, the

present Grandmaster, informed the 121 Masters that, in view of the favourable
response of 107 votes in favour, 5 abstentions and 9 votes against accepting
the proposed succession of title and prerogative, ratification had been made
on 6 AUGUST 1989 in PARIS, at 10 o'clock solar time, and that THOMAS
PLANTARD de Saint-Clair had been proclaimed Grandmaster. Information
has been sent to all members of the ORDER. - 836:1

Merovingian sources collectively point to the Plantards and Saint-Clairs as the bloodlines that
will produce the Grail King, the divine ruler, at once god and king, who will bring mankind into
a utopian age of peace and prosperity. One piece of evidence for this choice is found in a recent
best-seller, The Da Vinci Code: "Only two direct lines of Merovingians remain. Their family
names are Plantard and Saint-Clair. Both families live in hiding, probably protected by the
Priory." - 935:260

According to Marjorie Reeves' Joachim of Fiore and the Prophetic Future, a second
Charlemagne will arise whose surname begins with 'P'.

"It was a Burgundian World Emperor that [Johann] Lichtenberger expected to arise
as a Second Charlemagne. His hint as to who this will be is quite plain: 'And it is
said in the book of the kings of the Franks that from the stock of King Charles of
France [Charlemagne] will arise in the last days an Emperor, 'nomine P.', who will
be the monarch of all Europe and reform Church and clergy. After him there shall
be no ruler.'" - 823:110-111

E. W. Bullinger wrote in The Witness of the Stars, after which recent pseudo-Christian books
have been patterned: "The day has here come to fulfill the prophecies concerning Him who is
'the Branch,' 'the Branch of Jehovah,' 'the man whose name is the Branch.'"- 939

The Prieuré de Sion was formed and has been directed by individuals related to the Saint-Clair
bloodline. In Great Britain, the surname of this so-called sacred lineage is Sinclair. According
to at least two Masonic sources, the Saint-Clairs are Grand Masters of Freemasonry by right of
birth and they have historically controlled the Prieuré de Sion.

"Through marriage the family of Marie Levis St. Clair was connected to the de
Gisors, the family from which the first and third grand masters of the Prieuré de
Sion came. Without question, Prieuré de Sion was created and run by individuals
related to the St. Clairs. The third grand master was in charge in the year that the
Templars were ordered arrested and the treasure fleet set sail for Scotland to escape
the agents of the French king. Did one St. Clair (from France) correspond with
another Sinclair (from Scotland) for this express purpose? Most likely the answer
is yes." (Lost Treasure of the Knights Templar) - 281:178

"Their domain [the Sinclair family—Scottish branch of the Norman Saint-Clair

Gisors family] at Rosslyn was only a few miles from the former Scottish
headquarters of the Knights Templar, and the chapel at Rosslyn—built between
 headquarters of the Knights Templar, and the chapel at Rosslyn—built between
1446 and 1486—has long been associated with both Freemasonry and the Rose-
Croix. In a charter believed to date from 1601, moreover, the Sinclairs are
recognized as 'hereditary' grand masters of Scottish Masonry.' This is the earliest
specifically Masonic document on record. According to Masonic sources, however,
the hereditary grand mastership was conferred on the Sinclairs by James II, who
ruled between 1437 and 1460—the age of René d'Anjou." (Holy Blood, Holy Grail)
- 31:183

In addition to conditioning the masses to believe their New Age propaganda, another objective
of best-selling New Age books such as Holy Blood, Holy Grail is to covertly communicate
secret information from the Prieuré de Sion to a specific audience—the global network of secret
societies and New Age cults, all of which eagerly await the end of the Age of Pisces and the
beginning of the Age of Aquarius. At that point in time, the much despised Church Age will
come to a close and Lucifer, in the person of the Antichrist, will reign over a Golden Age,
having destroyed the Harlot Church which no longer serves his purposes.

In Holy Blood, Holy Grail, there is a childhood photo of Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair seated
on the lap of Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair.

This peculiar photograph of Thomas Plantard, seated on the lap of Pierre, is conveying an
esoteric message to the occultist. Please take note of the pose, Thomas sitting on the lap of
Pierre. Below are some photographs of famous Black Virgins, also called Black Madonnas.
Note the striking similarity of the poses of Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair with Thomas and the
Black Virgins with their sons who were child gods. Notice also the masculine appearance of the
'Madonnas' and the placement of their sons between their legs:
 "Our ancient, battered, much-loved, little-
understood Black Virgins are a still-living
archetypal image that lies at the heart of our
civilization and has a message for us.... The
light of nature tells us that life is a pilgrimage, a
journey to the stars along the Milky Way, her
hero-path, a voyage across the great water in
which she is the ship, rudder, and guiding star.
"There is clearly no return to the twelfth
century, the third century or the third
millennium BC. Inanna, Sophia, the Holy Grail
and the Church of Amor [Catharism] are no
longer available as living realities for us today.
There are signs that the goddess now requires to
be worshipped in spirit and in truth through the
law written in our hearts, rather than in temples
built with hands. One old truth is that man and
woman, though different, are equal parts of a
consciously androgynous whole that is each
person's potential reality. Many people, shown
photographs of the Black Virgin for the first
Notre-Dame de Marsat
time, comment on how masculine some of
Marsat Puy-de-Dôme, France
them look." (Ean Begg, The Cult of the Black
Virgin) - 272:13,134

 "Notre Dame de Meymac, also
known as the Black Madonna of
Meymac is believed to have been
carved sometime during the 11th
century. The Black Virgin has very
large hands and a red cloak; and has
been called one of the strangest and
most interesting Black Madonnas to
date. The Child is dressed in red with
bare feet, and sits between the
Madonna's knees, holding a closed
book in his left hand.
"This Black Virgin was once part
of the 11th century treasure of
Benedictine priory of Saint Andrew,
originally a hermitage in and during
the Merovingian Dynasty...
"This is one of the Madonnas of
the Fisher Kings, the Merovingian
line of Mystic Kings, keepers of the
Grail Bloodline.
"Black Madonnas are believed to
be pre-Christian archetypes whose
child-nurturing focus is the
embodiment of the pre-historic Great
Mother.
"A very powerful and important
Madonna, She regally sits an
impressive 8.5 inches tall. This gothic
style icon is found in the French
village of Correze.:- 925

"Beyond general style, the genre

of the statue is certainly that of an
'enthroned virgin', typical of the
earliest icons of Mary. On behalf of
Madonna and Child representations,
Stephen Benko notes: It is well
known that the iconography of Isis
and [her son] Horus was basically
adopted by Christians when they
started to portray Mary and Jesus as
Mother and Child.' Benko adds that
Isis was sometimes 'pictured as
black'... the Montserrat figures [and]
over 1,000 of the world's better
known Madonnas are black...
"...Montserrat is located in
Spain, not in France where St.
Bernard of Clairvaux (the nephew of
one of the original nine Knight
Templars) and others produced
well-known commentaries on the
Canticles. Perhaps the image was
created black to represent some
esoteric religious symbolism. Ean
Begg notes that the Shrine of
Notre-Dame de Montserrat
Montserrat is among the best
La Moreneta * Montserrat Katalonien, Spain
candidates for former sanctuaries
for the Holy Grail. Further, in the
twelfth and thirteenth centuries

"Whoever the enigmatic Black Virgin may be,

she holds a powerful attraction for her millions
of devotees around the world. Her sacred sites
stand on highly charged earth energy centers,
enhanced by megalithic ley-lines and sacred
architecture.
"From ancient times to present, people have
undertaken pilgrimages to her shrines as a way to
explore her mysteries and to enable her to do her
miraculous work of healing, transformation and
inspiration. France has more than 300 Black
Virgin sites, with over 150 Black Virgins still in
existence."

Will Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair be revealed as the reincarnation of Horus, i.e. Nimrod,
who will at last unite the world under Lucifer? Recall that the myth of Horus is a distortion of
the Genesis account of God's judgment on the Tower of Babel. Not happy with this
arrangement, New Agers anticipate the return of Horus as the reincarnation of Nimrod who will
at last unite mankind in a victorious rebellion against God. (Gen. 10 and 11)

"Like the goddess Isis, who found and restored all of the lost pieces of her husband,
Osiris, many are restoring the unity of all life, bringing together the separate parts
of humanity—different races, religions and cultures." - 42:62

Isis is an onomatopoeic Asianic word, Ish-ish, meaning 'she who weeps'. Ezekiel 8 can be
understood as a reference to Israel's participation in the Babylonian worship of Tammuz, the
reborn Nimrod who, like Nimrod and Osiris, suffered an untimely death. Then he brought me to
the door of the gate of the LORD'S house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat
women weeping for Tammuz. - Ezek. 8:14

"Unfortunately, the youthful Tammuz (also known as Adonis, meaning 'lord,' in

classical mythology) met an untimely death at the tusk of a wild boar. Here legend
overtakes history altogether. Some accounts say that after three days Tammuz
miraculously resurrected himself; others say that the grief-stricken Ishtar journeyed
far into the netherworld to find him. After many days she succeeded, but during her
absence the passion of love ceased to operate and all of life on earth languished in
mourning. By all accounts, when the lamenting was over, Tammuz was firmly
ensconced as the new god of the sun, and his renown eventually exceeded even
Nimrod's.
"Every year following Tammuz' tragic death and presumed ascension to the sun,
the forty days preceding Ishtar's festival were set aside for fasting and self-
affliction to commemorate his suffering and death. (It was this practice, 'weeping
for Tammuz,' that God called an abomination in Ezekiel 8:13, 14.) At the end of
this period of mourning the people would waken early on the first day of the week
and travel to the highest hills near their homes. There they would present their
offerings of wine, meat, and incense and prostrate themselves before the rising sun,
exclaiming 'Our lord is risen!' Then would commence the festivities of Ishtar,
queen of heaven and goddess of fertility. In preparation for this high celebration,
the people would make small cakes, inscribing them with a cross (a pagan fertility
symbol), for baking in the sun and eating as part of their ritual. The day would
conclude in orgiastic revelry of a most debasing sort, and often included human
sacrifices." (1002)

Isis is the Greek form of more ancient Egyptian names; originally, Isis was known as Aset, or Eset
which, in Egyptian, means 'Throne or Seat'. Black Virgins are traditionally seated on thrones in a
manner similar to icons of the Egyptian Isis. Isis is typically represented as a woman wearing on
manner similar to icons of the Egyptian Isis. Isis is typically represented as a woman wearing on
her head the hieroglyphic symbol of her [Egyptian] name, which represents a throne or seat. Her
original headdress was an empty throne chair belonging to her murdered husband, Osiris.

"Among the Egyptians, Isis is often represented with a headdress consisting of the
empty throne chair of her murdered husband, and this peculiar structure was
accepted during certain dynasties as her hieroglyphic." - Manly P. Hall, Masonic,
Hermetic, Quabbalistic & Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy

Isis represents the dynastic seat of authority whose offspring are destined
by their birthright to rule as kings. ISIS is THE THRONE.

Throne of Isis
Definition: The headdress of the Egyptian goddess Isis. Isis is the Greek derivative
of the Egyptian name Aset, (or Auset), meaning throne or seat of authority. Isis was
the embodiment of authority, and divine right to rule was by her authority. Osiris
reborn is often depicted as an infant on the lap of Isis, where she is the literal
personification of a throne. - 918

"As a later identity of Isis with Horus, she shows how papal and kingly thrones all
hark back to the lap of Isis upon which sits enthroned the child-god. Each gave
birth to savior gods who would die and be reborn in annual cycles (a parallel to the
Demeter/Kore myth), and our modern festivals of Christmas and Easter re-celebrate
this primeval human rite. Depicted as black virgin, this Madonna incorporates
aspects of Kali. Medieval cathedrals (called in France 'Notre Dame'—literally, 'Our
Lady') are venerations of the ancient Great Goddess' majesty." - 928

"Isis was the embodiment of authority, and divine right to rule was by her authority... papal and
kingly thrones all hark back to the lap of Isis." The divine right of kings would explain the
longevity of the cult of Isis and her esteem among royalty who believe themselves to be
descendants of a divinity. Lewis Spence wrote in Ancient Egyptian Myths and Legends, the cult
of Isis has survived from the dynastic period of Egypt through the Classical period and Holy
Roman Empire and is, today, principally carried on in Paris, the location of the Prieuré de Sion.

"Isis, or Ast, must be regarded as one of the earliest and most important
conceptions of female godhead in ancient Egypt. In the dynastic period she was
regarded as the feminine counterpart of Osiris, and we may take it that before the
dawn of Egyptian history she occupied a similar position... No other deity has
probably been worshipped for such an extent of time, for her cult did not perish
with that of most other Egyptian gods, but flourished later in Greece and Rome,
and is seriously carried on in Paris to-day." (995)

Peter Dawkins wrote in The Great Vision that, in Cabalistic mysticism, the Throne (Isis) also
represents the Temple in which the union of the Virgin Soul (the initiate) to the Spirit (Lucifer)
takes place. This union, which is achieved only by the highest adepts and masters, produces the
Christ Child who is the 'living embodiment of Light', which Dawkins states is the meaning of
Horus. In other words, Horus is the incarnation of the 'Spirit' Lucifer.

"The Enthroned Lady or Heavenly Queen is the ancient title of Isis, the virgin
mother of Horus, as also of Mary, the virgin mother of Jesus. The hieroglyphic
symbol of Isis used by the Ancient Egyptians was that of a throne—Isis being the
actual throne or seat upon which the child Horus sits as King of Light (the Sun
King). The same symbol is employed in Christian iconography, and Mary is
pourtrayed as the 'throne' or 'seat', with the Christ Child seated in her lap, his head
aligned with her heart. It is a carefully constructed and important symbol, revealing
 many mysteries.
"In the Hebraic cabbala, the Throne is described as the Merkabah or Throne of
Glory—the perfect dwelling place of the Lord. It is the supreme and pure
Tabernacle or Temple in which the Messianic Presence of the Lord God may dwell
and be manifest. That is to say, it is the perfect form of divine manifestation, the
virgin Soul, Bride to the Spirit. The sublime union of the receptive, responsive
Bride with the active, creative Spirit produces (i.e. gives birth to) the Messiah as
the Christ Child, the living embodiment of Light (which is what the word Jesus or
Horus means). In biblical terms it means that the 'living soul', Adam, becomes a
'life-giving Spirit', Christ: the former being a receptacle of life, the latter being a
creator of life, in the same symbolic sense that a moon may become a sun, or a
light-receiving vessel may transform itself into a light-producing star. Out of the
cosmic form of Nature are born the shining Sons of Light. (902:70)

In preparation for the occult New Age of the Spirit, the high level initiates who have infiltrated the
Laodicean Church will attempt to palm off Lucifer as the Holy Spirit, in accordance with the
Manichean tradition that the Holy Spirit is the transformed Lucifer. Eventually, the Virgin-Bride
(Isis) is 'married' to the Christ Child (Horus), who is the incarnation of her husband/brother, Osiris,
aka Lucifer, the Spirit with whom she united:

"The Temple, synonymous with the Throne, was also used as a hieroglyph for Isis,
the Virgin Mother or Soul. When the Temple is so filled with the Presence of God that
it is set on fire with divine love and light (which a perfect Temple will be), then it
becomes, or is, a pyre of flame—a 'Pyramid'. And in becoming a pyre of light, it
moves, it becomes active. The Throne becomes a Chariot. The motionless Temple
becomes a living Flame.
"Just as a flame enables light to be manifested as a blazing orb or sun of radiant
light, so the perfect Soul enables the Spirit to become fully manifest as the Christ
Child. Just as the central orb of light sits enthroned in the midst of the flame, shining
its radiance or glory all around, so the Christ Child sits as a King of Glory upon His
Throne: Horus sits upon Isis; Jesus sits upon Mary; the Christ Consciousness sits upon
man's soul. Then, just as the flame becomes identified with the light, swallowed up
by its glory, so the Mother becomes identified with her Child, 'assumed' and
'married', as it were to her Son... In Christian symbology, Jesus seated upon the lap
of his Mother, or Jesus enthroned in the centre of the Vesica Piscis (the 'flame-vessel
of the Fish'), mean the same. It is the revelation of the Supreme Mystery or Gnosis; the
revelation of Christ, the Son or Light of God; the revelation of the Divine Idea or
Divine Consciousness, which is Truth.
"The Christ Child is the Sun-King, and his Throne or Mother is the Kingdom of
Heaven, the Empire of Peace and Plenty that is bathed in the golden glory of Christ
Consciousness. It is, or can be, both individual and universal, Jerusalem (meaning 'the
Great Peace') is another name for the Kingdom. Old Jerusalem is the Mother—the
psyche; New Jerusalem is the Mother with Child—the 'heavenly' or beautiful Soul that
has attained Christ Consciousness." (902:70)

According to a Masonic source, The Hiram Key, there was a prophecy given by a Teacher of
Righteousness to the Gnostic Essene Community of Qumran, which was associated with the
Society of Ormus, that two messianic figures of the end time would have the following titles:

"...The man who would lead them at the 'End of the Age', the Davidic Messiah, had
such titles as 'Mighty Man', 'Man of Glory', 'Prince of Light'... God, however, will
save his people by the hands of two messianic figures who arise at the end of time;
one from 'Branch of David', and the other 'The Interpreter of the Law'." - 162:201

The symbology of the light and the glory applies to Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair on several
levels. Firstly, Saint-Clair is French for holy light:
 "The name Saint-Clair is derived from the Latin Sanctus Clarus, meaning 'Holy
Light'." - 29:297

The word 'clairvoyant' is derived from Latin words meaning to see the light, not merely in the
sense of a realization, but in the mystical sense of actually seeing living entities (light beings)
in the spiritual realm.

Merriam-Webster Dictionary
Main Entry: clair·voy·ant
Etymology: French, from clair clear (from Latin clarus) + voyant, present
participle of voir to see, from Latin vidEre

"Clairvoyance. The faulty of seeing with the inner eye or spiritual sight... Real
clairvoyance means the faculty of seeing through the densest matter (the latter
disappearing at the will and before the spiritual eye of the Seer), and irrespective of
time (past, present and future) or distance." - 316:85

The surname Saint-Clair esoterically denotes a bloodline of high level initiates who have
experienced union with Lucifer. The designation of young Thomas as the Horus-King means that
he is the living embodiment of the Light, i.e., Lucifer. In the mystery religion of ancient Egypt,
Horus was the offspring of Isis and Osiris who were fraternal twins before they became husband
and wife. This arrangement, of course, was incest—a practice not uncommon among the ancient
gods and goddesses. Set and Nephthys were brother and sister as were King Arthur and Morgaine,
who are regarded by the Merovingians as divine descendants of Jesus Christ, and the offspring of
the latter unholy union, Modred, was believed to be the 'Celtic Christ'. Laurence Gardner
rationalizes that King Arthur's sexual union with his sister was not really incestuous, but rather a
rebirth of the ancient archetypal androgynous Godhead:

"Writers have sometimes deemed Arthur's sexual relationship with his half-sister
Morgaine to be incestuous—but this is not the way it was regarded in Celtic
Britain. At that time, the anciently perceived dual nature of God prevailed, as did
the equally ancient principle of the 'sacred sister-bride—so revered in the holy
ritual of Mesopotamia. In this regard, the Prayer of the Celts began, 'Our Father-
Mother in the heavens'. In conjunction with this, specifically defined rites were
performed to denote the mortal incarnation of the 'dual male-female entity'. As the
earthly manifestation of the goddess Cerridwin,...Morgaine represented the female
aspect of the duality. Arthur was her true male counterpart in the established royal
tradition of the Pharaohs. On the festival of Beltane (the spring equinox), Arthur
was apprehended as a god in human form and obliged to participate in a ritual of
sacred intercourse between the twin aspects of the incarnate Father-Mother. In
view of Arthur and Morgaine's supposed divinity during this rite, any male
offspring from the union would be deemed the 'Celtic Christ', and would be duly
anointed as such. By virtue of this, although Arthur was destined to become the
prominent subject of romantic history, it was his son Modred who held the highest
spiritual position: he was designated Christ of Britain; the ordained Archpriest of
the Sacred Kindred, and an anointed Fisher King.... Contrary to all myth and
legend, it was the dying Archpriest Modred (not Arthur) who was carried from the
field by his mother Morgaine's Holy Sisters." - 29:205-6

The occult traditions glorify incest for other reasons that defy logic, but then occultists typically
glorify the irrational or subjective over logical and objective ways of thinking. Cathy Burns
explains in her book, Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated, another reason for the exaltation of
incest.

"Occultist and psychologist Carl Jung, adds: 'Alchemy...exalted the most heinous
transgression of the law, namely incest, into a symbol of the union of opposites,
hoping in this way to bring back the golden age." - 39:177
 hoping in this way to bring back the golden age." - 39:177

In other words, when mankind reaches the nadir of its depravity, the divine spark within each man
will generate an opposing impulse toward transformation and the Golden Age will begin—this
Utopia of peace and prosperity into which the Grail King will lead mankind. Based on this
esoteric concept, which is discussed further in Libra, the Antichrist must exemplify the reprobate
condition to which mankind must stoop in order for the transformation to begin. Utter madness!
says the rational man. However, sensible persons may be assured that behind the irrational belief
system of the occult is the archenemy of mankind, Lucifer, scheming to provoke God's wrath on
the human race.

Returning to the concept of twins, the meaning of 'Thomas' happens to be twin:

At this point, we ask the reader to carefully compare the pictures below. On the left is a
photograph of the parents of William Cooper which appears in the Foreword of his book, Behold a
Pale Horse. The picture is undated, but William Cooper, who was their firstborn, arrived into this
world in 1943. On the right the previous picture of Pierre and Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair,
which was taken in 1979.

Are these photographs younger and older versions of the SAME MAN???

Thomas is said to be 10 years old in the 1979 photo, although he looks younger. Pierre Plantard,
born in 1920, would have been 59, old enough to be Thomas's grandfather. Thomas would seem to
be the grandson, not the son, of the deceased Éminence grise. If this is the case, then who was
Thomas' father? William Cooper was the eldest of three children, his sister and brother being
Thomas' father? William Cooper was the eldest of three children, his sister and brother being
fraternal twins named Connie and Ronnie. Their pictures along with William's and some revealing
family information are presented in the Foreword to Cooper's book.

In our opinion, Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair bears a remarkable resemblance to William

Cooper's sister, Connie, who is two years younger than her elder brother. Connie would now be 59
and Thomas would be around 33 years of age. As outrageous as this hypothesis may seem, if
William Cooper's father is not Milton Cooper but Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair, it is within the
realm of possibility that Thomas is the son of Connie, and not Pierre. Curiously, according to
Cooper, Connie's husband is also named Ron, the name of her twin brother. Another coincidence,
King Arthur's biographer, Geoffrey of Monmouth, wrote of this former Grail King, who was the
son of Uther Pendragon, that Arthur defeated his enemies with a lance named 'Ron'.

“Arthur himself,” as Geoffrey of Monmouth relates, “dressed in a breastplate worthy

of so great a king, places on his head a golden helmet engraved with the semblance of
a dragon. Over his shoulders he throws his shield called Priwen, on which a picture of
the Holy Virgin constantly recalled her to his memory. Girt with Caliburn, a most
excellent sword, and fabricated in the isle of Avalon, he graces his right hand with the
lance named Ron. This was a long and broad spear, well contrived for slaughter.”

We venture to state further that if Thomas Plantard de Saint-Claire, the Grand Master of the
Prieuré de Sion is, esoterically speaking, the reincarnation of Horus, his mother would represent
Prieuré de Sion is, esoterically speaking, the reincarnation of Horus, his mother would represent
Isis, whose twin brother was also her husband.

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Pierre Plantard spent time in a Nazis prison.

"Let us remember that during the Occupation, he was arrested, suffered torture by the
Gestapo and was interned as a political prisoner for long months... He was imprisoned
by the Gestapo for more than a year, from October 1943 until the end of 1944."
(31:221-2)

Whether Plantard was a prisoner or a willing participant in Nazi genetic experimentation is the
question. During the Holocaust, Josef Mengele, Hitler's Angel of Death, conducted countless
experiments on sets of Jewish twins. From the book, Children of the Flames: Doctor Josef
Mengele and the Untold Story of the Twins of the Holocaust, we found this disturbing account:

"Josef Mengele, aka Auschwitz's 'Angel of Death,' held a fascination with twins.
As Auschwitz's senior 'physician' he conducted 'genetic experiments' on nearly
1500 sets of twins between 1943 and 1944...
"Of the 3000 twins who passed through Mengele's labs, only 200 survived the
war. Depending on the type of experiment endured by the twins, they were driven
to various labs at Auschwitz or neighboring Birkenau camp. Most received routine
blood and x-ray tests, often on a daily basis... Mengele's experiments were both
physical and psychological; experimental surgeries performed without anesthesia,
transfusions of blood from one twin to another, isolation endurance, reaction to
various stimuli, injections with lethal germs, sex change operations, the removal of
organs and limbs, incestuous impregnations... Mengele injected chemicals into the
eyes of children in an attempt to change their eye color...
"Unfortunately a strict veil of secrecy over the experiments enabled Mengele to
do his work more effectively, and 'twins who were subjected to the most grusome
procedures took his secrets to their graves.' The full extent of his grusome work
will never be known because the records he sent to Dr. Von Verschuer at the Kaiser
Wilhelm Institute were shipped out 'in two truckloads' and destroyed by the latter.
Any remaining notes Mengele carried with him on his escape to South America and
those were never found...
"Mengele...also attempted to change the sex of some twins. Female twins were
sterilized; males were castrated. What was the point of these ghoulish experiments?
No one, either the child-victims, nor the adult witnesses, ever really knew." -
381:70

Note that Dr. Mengele's experiments were conducted for genetics purposes and occurred between
1943 and 1944, the exact years Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was incarcerated by the Nazis. Might
Pierre Plantard have been involved in some capacity in Mengele's experiments on twins? Was M.
Plantard/Milton Cooper and/or his wife genetically manipulated to conceive twins? Or were
Connie and Ronnie, born in 1945, the products of in vitro fertilization, carefully controlled to
produce twins? Or...was genetic manipulation performed to restructure the twins' DNA so they
would produce an androgyne in the future, which we believe Thomas may be. Who knows what
genetic engineering was possible in 1943-4 or what was accomplished in the Nazi eugenics
institutes. The possibilities are legion.

The following allegation comes from a website debunking Pierre Plantard and the Prieuré de Sion,
which is one method of damage control when the truth somehow gets exposed. One thing seems
certain. Sexual perversion is not uncommon in the Merovingian dynasty.

“...in 1957, possibly...Plantard had been arrested and tried for pedophilia or kidnapping
of a child. This charge was made later by the supposedly Jewish ex-member of the
Priory of Sion, Jean-Luc Chaumeil, whose rather incoherent letters to Paul Smith are
now carried on Smith’s website at http://smithpp0.tripod.com/psp/id98.html. Henry
 now carried on Smith’s website at http://smithpp0.tripod.com/psp/id98.html. Henry
Lincoln chose to disregard this charge as a 'vicious libel.'... But even if it is true that
Plantard was at one time arrested and tried for some sort of sexual deviance regarding
children (assuming that this is not just a smear), this does not affect Plantard’s (or the
story’s) insistence that he was of Merovingian descent. In fact, it ironically makes that
pedigree more likely, since the inbreeding of aristocrats has long been suspected as a
cause of degeneracy among them. A sexually perverse Plantard is, ironically, a more
credible Merovingian!...” - 1085

Milton William Cooper

Lest our hypotheses appear to be wild speculations, the reader should consider some biographical
information on William Cooper.

William Cooper was an intelligence agent with the Office of Naval Intelligence in Bethesda,
MD. Following World War II, German scientists were in great demand by all of the U.S.
intelligence agencies, which actually competed for their fair share of Nazi war criminals! To
meet this demand, the dossiers of Nazi scientists, engineers, physicists, doctors, psychiatrists
and intelligence agents were sanitized in several operations, the most well-known and last
being Operation Paperclip; previously there were Operation Overcast, and Operation
Sunrise. Bethesda Naval Hospital would become the center for CIA mind-control drug
projects following WW II, according to "Project Paperclip and the Nuremberg Trials
Whitewash":

"Under the terms of [Project] Paperclip there was fierce competition not only between
the wartime allies but also between the various US services - always the most savage
form of combat. Curtis LeMay saw his new-minted US Air Force as certain to prompt
the navy's virtual extinction and thought this process would be speeded if he were able
to acquire as many German scientists and engineers as possible. For its part, the US
Navy was equally eager to snare its measure of war criminals. One of the first men
picked up by the navy was a Nazi scientist named Theordore Benzinger. Benzinger
was an expert on battlefield wounds, expertise he gained through explosive
experiments conducted on human subjects during the waning stages of World War II.
Benzinger ended up with a lucrative government contract working as a researcher at
Bethesda Naval Hospital in Maryland." - 949

William Cooper credits his selection for this Nazi-infested organization to his membership
as a young adult in the DeMolay Society, a branch of Freemasonry.

"The Knights Templar exist today as a higher degree of Freemasonry within the
Templar Order. In fact, the Knights Templar is a branch of the Order of the Quest.
The DeMolay Society is a branch of the Freemasons that consecrates the memory of
the persecution of the Knights Templar and in particular, their leader Jacques
deMolay. I know, because I was a member of the DeMolay Society as a young
adult. I loved the mystery and ritual. I became separated from the Society when my
family moved to a location out of reach of any lodge. I believe to this day that my
association with the DeMolay Society may have been the reason for my selection for
Naval Security and Intelligence." - 51:75

William Cooper's belief system, as stated in Behold a Pale Horse, included the Holy Grail
fiction and denial of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

"One of the greatest secrets of the ages is the true story of the Holy Grail, the robe
of Jesus, the remains of the Cross of Crucifixion, and whether Jesus actually died or
if he survived and produced a child..." - 51:75
 In Behold a Pale Horse, William Cooper claimed that he actually knew the location in
France of the Holy Grail, which he strongly implied includes the bones of Jesus!

"The Prieure de Sion was a religious order founded upon Mount Sion in Jerusalem.
The Order set for itself the goal of preserving and recording the bloodline of Jesus and
the House of David. Through every means available to them, the Prieure de Sion had
found and retrieved the remaining relics... The treasure hidden in France is not the
treasure of the Temple of Jerusalem. It is the Holy Grail itself, the robe of Jesus, the
last remaining pieces of the Cross of Crucifixion, and, according to my sources,
someone's bones. I can tell you that the reality of the bones will shake the world
to its very foundations if I have been told the truth. The relics are hidden in
France. I know the location..." (51:76)

William Cooper founded a newspaper which he called VERITAS.

"William Cooper, Trustee, has founded for Harvest Trust, the CAJI News
Service, VERITAS national full size newspaper, The Intelligence Service,
Harvest Publications, and has helped over 700 low power FM affiliate
stations get equipped and on the air... including the station he manages as
Trustee for the Independence Foundation Trust, 101.1 FM Eagar, Arizona,
broadcasting to 7,000 people." (961)

According to Dagobert's Revenge, "It is significant, then, that in...1188, the Prieuré de
Sion...adopted the subtitle 'Order de la Rose-Croix Veritas'." (963) Pierre Plantard
used the word Veritas in reference to the Prieuré de Sion and the Rosicrucians:

"1962. Robert Charroux, Treasures Of The World, containing chapters devoted to the
Abbé Bérenger Saunière and to the Order of the Knights’ Templar – the latter chapter
referring to a painting of Saint Celestine in adoration before a luminous apparition at
the centre of which was inscribed the word 'Veritas' (Plantard was to equate the Priory
of Sion with the Rosicrucians and the word Veritas)." (962)

On Cooper's website, Hour of the Time, is displayed the alchemical symbol of the
Nuda Veritas or the 'Naked Truth'.

Note that "Truth is at its center." According to "Freemasonry and Religion" by David
Brownback, "One of the first things that a newly initiated brother learns is that
'Freemasonry is a system of morality veiled in allegory and illustrated with symbols.' He
also learns that Truth is at its center." (616)

Cooper's logo is, in fact, a famous painting by the visionary artist, Gustav Klimt of
Vienna, Austria. Produced in 1899, Klimt's Nuda Veritas [right], had a serpent at the feet
of the woman which is missing from Cooper's reproduction. Klimt belonged to "a secret
lodge, the Masonic Order of Visionaries." He was regarded as a true visionary artist, or
lodge, the Masonic Order of Visionaries." He was regarded as a true visionary artist, or
one who portrays through art his personal visions of the 'divine light' and out of body
experiences of 'union with the Mother Goddess' i.e. sexual intercourse with demons.

William Cooper's Nuda Veritas, meaning the Naked Truth, is literally the revelation of
gnosis in the form of a woman. This pernicious teaching was an ancient heresy that
found its way into the early church and was refuted by Irenaeus in his treatise, Against
Heresies:

"Marcus, a student of Valentinus' (c. 150), says that a vision 'descended

upon him...in the form of a woman... and expounded to him alone its own
nature, and the origin of things, which it had never revealed to anyone,
divine or human.' The presence then said to him, 'I wish to show you Truth
herself, for I have brought her down from above, so that you may see her
without a veil, and understand her beauty.'" (1057)

Elaine Pagels wrote in The Gnostic Gospels, "And that, Marcus adds, is how 'the naked
Truth' came to him in a woman's form, disclosing her secrets to him. Marcus expects, in
turn, that everyone whom he initiates into gnosis will also receive such experiences. In
the initiation ritual, after invoking the spirit, he commands the candidate to speak in
prophecy, to demonstrate that the person has received direct contact with the divine."
(1057)

But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers
among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought
them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious
ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. - 2 Pet. 2:1-2

Gustav Klimt's Nuda Veritas turns out to be Sophia, the female half of Adam-Kadmon, the Divine
Androgyne. Understanding of the alchemical imagery of this painting is elucidated by an androgynous
statue in the cathedral of Nantes in France. We are informed by a New Age source that the fusion of male
and female is the outcome of spiritual transformation:

"...One alchemical symbol that is widely

acknowledged by modern scholars is that of an
old bearded man, the back of whose head
shows a young woman looking into a mirror.
A statue with this image graces the exterior of
Nantes cathedral, as does a bearded king with
the body of a woman, in the porch at Chartres
that depicts the Queen of Sheba.
"The hermaphrodite is a pure alchemical
symbol, representing the perfect balance
achieved in the Great Work, and the perfect
being, in which the alchemist himself is
transformed and transmuted spiritually - and, as
many believe, physically as well. It was a
'consummation devoutly to be wished' and had
little, if anything, to do with sexuality as we
understand it today. The Great Work was an
explosion of the potential into the actual, where
the mystical quest takes on concrete form. As
the alchemists said, 'as above, so below' - this
process was believed to make spirit into matter
and transmute one sort of matter into another. It
made a man into a god." (1058)
The 'Great Work' is the union of the soul with the Divine by means of sexual alchemy. This
union, we are told, is not to be confused with sexuality as we understand it today. Then what is
it, pray tell? A rather eerie New Age website, World Soul Media, carries an online book titled
Heavenly Partners: The Mystical Marriage Revealed, which gives explicit details of the author's
"daring and beautiful accounts of the mystical marriage ceremony and the resultant alchemical
fusion of the author with the Theosophical Masters, by which the author begins The Great Work
- the transformational process of becoming an Ascended Master while still on the physical
plane." (1056:Intro) Chapter 6 titled, "Sexual Alchemy: Tantra Yoga" features a side view of
the Divine Androgyne of Nantes while explaining its significance as a Heavenly Partner fused
with a human being:

"I believe fully that sexual alchemy is the key

to...spiritual union with the Heavenly Partners. Sexual
alchemy is like the spiritual equivalent of Tantra Yoga.
It involves Swadhisthana chakra, by which our minds
become fused... The ancient, oriental alchemists said
the partners are 'inner plane beings,' and that they are
the result of an internal alchemical process that
manifests them. The process involves the psychic
energy centers of the physical body and begins with a
blinding white light and the taste of ambrosia... In the
inner alchemical laboratory of my subtle body, the
circulation of energy begins when the Swadhisthana
chakra is stimulated, releasing ching or sexual energy.
Ching combines with chi, at the heart region. Finally,
Ching and chi meet with shen in the head. When this
happens, the 'ambrosia flows like saliva in the mouth'
and the 'gold and silver lights' are seen. The psychic
inner lights of the Heavenly Partners, now manifest,
can always be seen. Alice Bailey called it
'externalization of the hierarchy.'...
"The Statue of Prudence at the tomb of Francois II
in Nantes Cathedral shows the Divine Androgyny,
which I interpret to be the Heavenly Partner and the
human being. The statue shows an old man residing
at the back of the head of a young woman."
(1056:6)

Today there are New Age books which instruct readers on how to have sexual intercourse
with spirits. The following promotional for Sexual Alchemy: Magical Intercourse with
Demons by Donald Tyson makes Jesus' words in Matt. 24:37 a present reality:

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of
man be. - Matt. 24:37

And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the
earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw
the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of
all which they chose. - Gen. 6:1

"Chances are that you've heard of Tantra and Taoist sexual practices. Now, as a
result of studying the inner mysteries of alchemy, Donald Tyson presents a
Western system of sacred sexuality in Sexual Alchemy. Here you will learn how to
have erotic relationships with loving spirits. That means the methods presented here
can function as a Western alternative to Eastern sexual practices. They also can be
used by a solitary person and need not depend upon the participation of a partner.
 used by a solitary person and need not depend upon the participation of a partner.
"The first part of this book presents a history of sex with spirits. It also goes into
the secrets of Eastern internal alchemy and how the books of Western alchemy
often made secretive references to sexual magick. You will also learn how to create
a physical representation of the spirit you are going to use as a partner.
"The second part of the book includes the practices and techniques which the
author found to be effective from other sources or developed himself. This includes
techniques of diet, exercise, breathwork, banishings, purifications, and finally, an
invocation ritual to summon the spirit who is going to be your lover!
"Then you will learn the previously hidden secrets of having sex with a spirit
lover. You''ll learn how to prepare and recognize the signs that this is an actual
occurrence and not simply a fantasy. And then, when you have accomplished your
ritualized mating, you will learn how to collect and use the resulting, highly
charged fluids for magical purposes.
"Everything we are, everything we have, is a gift from the Divine. Doesn't it
make sense that we use all of our abilities to honor the source from which they
came? That means we can even make use of our sensual natures to honor the Gods.
If you want to follow a system based on Western traditions, this book can be your
guide." (1056)

The Underground Streams website speaks of an extraterrestrial Current that would one day mate
with human beings:

"[Aleister] Crowley was aware of the possibility of opening the spatial gateways
and of admitting an extraterrestrial Current in the human life-wave... In the new
aeon, a race will be propagated of magically generated beings able to probe
extraterrestrial dimensions. And the next stage in the advancement of evolution on
the planet 'will be achieved by a willed congress [sexual intercourse] with
extraterrestrial entities of which, in a sense, Aiwaz (Aleister Crowley's Guardian
Angel) is the immediate messenger to humanity.'" (379)

A "willed congress" with extraterrestrials is called a sacred marriage or alchemical wedding,

which unites a human being with Lucifer under the guise of returning the soul to its former
androgynous state: "According to Gnostic teachings:

"...the soul is a female (the Greek word for soul, psyche, is feminine). Originally
she is a virgin, androgynous in form, living in the presence of the heavenly
Father. When she falls into a body, however, she is defiled; after abandoning her
Father's house and her virginity, she falls into sexuality and prostitution, and is
abused by the wanton adulterers of this carnal world. Desolate and repentant, she
prays to her Father for restoration, and he hears her prayer. She is returned to her
former condition, and restored to androgynous union with her brother. This union
is achieved through spiritual marriage; the bridegroom comes down to the bridal
chamber, and the soul and her bridegroom 'become a single life', inseparable from
each other. Thus the ascent of the soul to the Father is accomplished, and the soul
is again at home in heaven." William C. Robinson, Jr., in The Nag Hammadi
Library (1057)

THE SACRED MARRIAGE

Mark Twain wrote, "Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to
possibilities; Truth isn't." In the irrational world of the occult, the realities are indeed more bizarre
than fiction. The driving force behind the pornography industry is the vast network of secret
societies who conduct their lucrative operations legally through tax-funded intelligence
organizations. Masterminded and directed by Lucifer, these clandestine organizations sponsored
the sexual revolution which, bankrolled by the CIA's drug running syndicate, was designed to
destroy moral standards and family values, foster anarchy and eventually to eliminate distinctions
destroy moral standards and family values, foster anarchy and eventually to eliminate distinctions
of gender, as well as good and evil. To comprehend this collective flight from reason, we must
project ourselves into the subjective mindset of the occult underground, where right and wrong are
what the Luciferian adepts pronounce them to be, where virginity has nothing at all to do with
sexual purity, which in fact it rejects, and to comprehend, if at all possible, to what lengths the
demonized race of Merovingians, having delusions of divinity, will go to produce a human vessel
worthy of incarnation by their androgynous god, Lucifer. Truth — Veritas — is indeed stranger
than Fiction.

Thomas Plantard de Saint-Claire would have been born circa 1969-71, when Connie and Ronnie
were in their mid-twenties. Found in a biography of Pierre Plantard is evidence that Thomas may
also be a twin, as his name indicates. The following is an English translation of Pierre Plantard's
bio from the French; the brackets show the French wording for purposes of clarity.

1981 Election of Pierre [Plantard Grand] Master of the Priory of Sion.

An article is published in [l'Est républicain] introducing Thomas
February 1 and Irmine [PLANTARD] like "the two young descendants of
Clovis..." - 932

Thomas sister, Irmine, is almost certainly named after St. Irmine (c. 726), the Abbess d'Oeren
who was the daughter of Dagobert II, the last Merovingian king, and half-sister of Sigisbert IV
(676-758), who fled to Rennes le Chateau. We are told that, on 17 January, Sigebert IV, known
as the 'Plant-Ard', escaped assassination and took refuge in his mother's home at Rennes-le-
Chateau in Razès. This event was recorded by 'St. Irmine' in a parchment that was placed in a
vessel containing the head of Dagobert, which was later discovered by Abbé Bérenger Saunière,
the central character of Holy Blood, Holy Grail. The following is a translation of an extract
from a special issue of "Studies of the Merovingians" devoted to Dagobert II:

"The ciborium would have contained, a parchment written by Sainte IRMINE,

abbess d'OEREN, in 708. (Let us point out qu'lRMINE was the girl of
DAGOBERT II). She recalls l'assassinat of her father DAGOBERT II, the stay of
her half-brother SIGEBERT IV with the monastery d'OEREN, then her refuge,
January 17 681 with RHEDAE, capital of the RAZÈS (country d'origine of
GISELE, second wife of DAGOBERT). The RAZÈS belonged to Marquisat of
GOTHIE, in our current South-west..." (996)

Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was elected to the Prieuré de Sion on 17 January 1981. The
Prieuré always convenes for selection of Grand Masters on 17 January, the month of the god
Janus, who is symbolized with two heads representing twins. 'Janus' may be etymologically
related to 'John/Jean', the esoteric name of all Grand Masters of the Prieuré. Fifteen days after
his election as Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion, on the feast of Imbolc, Pierre Plantard de
Saint-Clair introduced Thomas and Irmine Plantard as being "like the two young descendants of
Clovis." (For the record, Clovis I is the legendary King Arthur) Are Thomas and Irmine twins,
as the name Thomas suggests? Richard H. Allen wrote, in Star Names: Their Lore and
Meaning, that as the zodiac spread from Babylonia to Greece and Egypt, its symbolism
changed. The Hindus knew the Gemini Twins, Castor and Pollux, as the Twin Deities or
Dioscouri; in Egypt they became 'Two Sprouting Plants' pictured as twins who symbolized the
sun and moon.

"Some of the Jews ascribed [the Gemini Twins] to the tribe of Benjamin,... The
Egyptians as Two Sprouting Plants; and Brown reproduces a Euphratean
representation of a couple of small, naked, male child-figures, one standing upon
its head and the other standing upon the former, feet to feet; the original twins
being the sun and moon, when the one is up the other is generally down."
(927:223-4)
The feast of Lupercalia, the Roman counterpart to Imbolc—the day on which Thomas and
Irmine Plantard de Saint-Claire made their debut in the French press—was celebrated in honor
of Romulus and Remus—the twin gods who founded Rome.

"Midwinter (early February) was the time of many ancient Pagan festivals, which
have continued under Christian guises. The wild Lupercalia of ancient Rome was
replaced by the austere Festival of the Purification of the Virgin, or Candlemas....
The Celtic Imbolc, or Brigid, is a time for purification and new beginnings...
Imbolc anticipates spring, although the vernal equinox is seven weeks away. The
word Imbolc refers to the pregnant condition of ewes at Midwinter. Their fertility
was a good sign to the ancient Celts who depended on sheep for food and
clothing... South and east of the British Isles ancient Romans celebrated the
Lupercalia in honor of Lupa, the she-wolf who nursed Romulus and Remus who
were considered Rome's founding twins. Orgiastic rites were performed to honor
her in the Grotto of the She-Wolf to insure fertility in the coming year. After these
rites, naked youth traveled to neighboring towns to purify them according to
Barbara Walker in The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myths and Secrets." - 933

The gods and goddesses of ancient and classical mythology were often twins as were the kings
and queens they supposedly incarnated.

"Often, the androgyne appeared in myth as male-female twins born simultaneously,

e.g. Isis-Osiris, Jana-Janus, Diana-Dianus, Fauna-Faunus, Helen-Helenus or
Artemis-Apollo, the 'moon and sun' united in their Mother’s womb." (934)

"The twins or brother gods in Sumeria [were] called Enki and Enlil. Enki, the
infernal of the two, represents Set and Enlil represents Horus (although in this
context Enlil would also be Osiris.)" (571)

The sacred marriage ritual required sexual union between male and female siblings; fraternal
twins of a divine bloodline were the preferred stock. In esoteric astrology, the Gemini Twins
represented 'sacred marriage' between fraternal twins. Sacred marriage in the original Tarot card
deck refers to incest between siblings, especially twins, as typified by the astrological sign of
Gemini.

"Astrologically, The Lovers is principally related to Venus, the goddess of air,

and Gemini which, in esoteric astrology, she rules. Importantly, Gemini is also the
first sign of relationship in the zodiac; the relationship between siblings...
"The Lovers follows a series of five very important, very powerful [Tarot] cards,
three of which are masculine and two feminine. When it appears in a reading
therefore, The Lovers can signal some sort of synthesis between the different
aspects of make and female that each of the previous cards represents. It signifies a
sense of challenge, newness, opposition and heightened awareness; and an
integration between the powerful forces that have been unleashed and experienced
(sometimes unconsciously) to this point...
"The sense of duality inherent in The Lovers is strengthened through its
association with Gemini, the sign of The Twins.... According to the myth of Castor
and Pollux, the story behind the constellation of Gemini, when the mortal Castor
died, his immortal twin brother Pollux begged his father to let him join Castor in
the Underworld. His father Zeus agreed, on the proviso that they spent half their
time in the Underworld and half in the heavens.
"...Gemini draws our attention to the importance of sibling relationships, and to
their powerful impact on the patterning of all our relationships with friends and
lovers. The two lovers in the Waite-Smith deck represent...an arrangement of the
brother-sister pair; one aspect of which is the 'sacred marriage', the marriage
between brother and sister. The 'sacred marriage' of The Lovers really represents a
 between brother and sister. The 'sacred marriage' of The Lovers really represents a
relationship of equality between two individuals, a type of relationship that is
largely absent from the Major Arcana." (851)

The purpose of the sacred marriage is to produce the 'divine androgen', i.e., 'The Christ'. A set
of twins not being a true androgen—the Gnostic ideal—the twins must somehow become one.
If the twins can be fused, according to the highly irrational thinking of occultists, androgyny
will be achieved. This is accomplished through the 'sacred marriage' ritual. The rationale behind
this ludicrous concept is that integration of the sexes will lead humanity back to the chaos of
Genesis 1:2, the undifferentiated unity that existed before Creation. (The false hope of the
occultist lies in recreating aeons of the past, rather than pressing on to the high calling in Christ
Jesus, which the blessed hope of the Christian.) That the fusion of male and female twins to
form an androgyne is a foundational principle of the secret doctrine is stated in reputable
sources such as the Encyclopedia of Religion:

"...androgynes may be regarded as 'good,' in the sense of symbolically successful,

when the image presents a convincing fusion of the two polarities and as 'bad' when
the graft fails to 'take' visually or philosophically—that is, when it is a mere
juxtaposition of opposites rather than a true fusion... 'Bad' androgynes often turn out,
on closer inspection, to be not true androgynes but pseudo-androgynes... These
liminal creatures include...male-female twins.
"Perhaps the most important way in which androgynes may be split into two groups,
as it were, is in terms of their way of coming into existence. Some are the result of the
fusing of separates, male and female; others are born in a fused form and
subsequently separated into a male and a female...
"In the mythology of mysticism...chaos is positive; the desire to merge back into
chaos is the goal of human existence, the supreme integration toward which one
strives. In many rituals, too, androgyny is 'a symbolic restoration of 'Chaos', of the
undifferentiated unity that proceeded the Creation, and this return to the homogenous
takes the form of supreme regeneration, a prodigious increase of power'...
"The fusing type of androgyne is originally created as a male and female in
isolation and must fuse in order to create. The separate components are barren, only
the androgyne is creative... The most common variant of the theme of the fusing
androgyne is the Two-in-One or hierogamy (i.e., sacred marriage)...
"...Many myths point out that the permanently fused androgyne is, technically, the
one creature in the world who is certain to be unable to copulate. As Alan Watts has
remarked, the androgyne symbolizes a state 'in which the erotic no longer has to be
sought or pursued, because it is always present in its totality." - 146:277-78
("Androgynes")

The final paragraph sounds eerily like the description of the Antichrist in Daniel 11:37:

"Neither shall he regard...the desire of women...for he shall magnify himself above all."

As if this wickedness were not sufficiently evil, the androgynous Antichrist will be the pattern
for all mankind. Alice Bailey stated, "The Plan is concerned with rebuilding mankind."
(148:145) Danilou implies in The Phallus, Sacred Symbol of Male Creative Power that the
evolutionary process requires the elimination of gender distinctions until androgyny is the norm:
"The goal toward which the human species should aim is the progressive reintegration of the
sexes until androgyny is obtained. The evolved being tends toward bisexuality." - 102:113

The Antichrist's false religious system, including a counterfeit 144,000, will no doubt model the
neutered Christianity of the new Gnosticism:

"With regard to Rev. 14:4 ('Those are they that are not defiled with women; for
they are virgins') [Georg] Koepgen asserts, 'Here the new androgynous form of
existence becomes visible. Christianity is neither male nor female, it is male-female
 existence becomes visible. Christianity is neither male nor female, it is male-female
in the sense that the male paired with the female in Jesus' soul. In Jesus the tension
and polaristic strife of sex are resolved in an androgynous unity. And the Church,
as his heir, has taken this over from him; She too is androgynous.'" - 146:281

THE GRAIL KING

It is fitting that the sign of Virgo, representing the androgyne or hermaphrodite, is symbolized
by the six-pointed star.

" The six-pointed Star refers to the six Forces or Powers of Nature, the six planes,
principles, etc., etc. all synthesized by the seventh, or the central point in the Star.
All these, the upper and lower hierarchies included, emanate from the 'Heavenly or
Celestial Virgin,' the great mother in all religions, the Androgyne, the Sephīrāh-
Adam-Kadmon." (Blavatsky) - 209:215 (Vol. I)

Cirlot's Dictionary of Symbols reveals that the six-pointed star signals the birth of a god:

"Since [Virgo] is governed by Mercury and corresponds to the number six it is

symbolic of hermaphroditism, or that state which is characterized by dual - positive
and negative - forces. Hence Virgo is sometimes depicted with the symbol of the
soul or the Seal of Solomon (two triangles, representing fire and water,
superimposed and intersecting to form a six-pointed star)... In mythology and in
religions generally, this symbol is always associated with the birth of a god or a
demi-god, as the supreme expression of the dynamic consciousness..." - 48:360-
361

The Mark of the Beast will be a symbolic representation of the Antichrist's own androgynous
state (which is why he is called a 'beast') and the transformed condition of humanity under the
perverse influence and governance of this tyrant. The Antichrist's declaration of 'peace and
safety' takes on new meaning when we understand that the transformation of mankind will bring
God's wrath upon the world:

"The six-pointed star is a symbol of the lost archetype of The Sacred Marriage,
representing the balance of male and female among others and essential for our
personal and planetary healing." - 285

"As stated previously, alchemy was not primarily the search for a metallurgic
formula to turn lead into gold. The primary texts of the old master alchemists refer
to the transmutation of a natural person into a spiritual person.... The crucible is life
itself, and the goal is union with God. The transformed person is one who finds the
'philosopher's stone', often equated with wisdom... In some alchemical texts, this
wisdom is illustrated with the symbol [of the six-pointed star]. Here again we find
the sacred 'union of opposites' and holiness/wholeness illustrated by the hexagram...
"Jewish rabbinical tradition teaches that the Ark of the Covenant kept in the
Holy of Holies of Solomon's Temple on Mount Sion contained not only the tablets
on which the Ten Commandments were inscribed, but also a 'man and a woman
locked in intimacy in the form of a hexagram.' This tradition articulates the
fundamental basis of Hebrew society; the tablets represent the precepts of the
covenant, and the hexagram symbolizes the 'hieros gamos', the intimate union of
the opposites. The meaning of the hexagram is summed up in the Hebrew word
'shalom' meaning 'peace and well-being.' It is still the prayer of the universe.
"Recent research about the feminine aspect of God in the Hebrew tradition
reveals that the Holy of Holies was the marriage chamber where the union of
Yahweh, the unseen Holy One, with his feminine counterpart, the Shekinah, was
consummated. With the destruction of the Temple, so goes the Jewish myth, the
relationship of Yahweh and Shekinah...was ruptured, and Yahweh returned to the
 relationship of Yahweh and Shekinah...was ruptured, and Yahweh returned to the
heavens to reign alone. Meanwhile his bride roamed the earth in exile, like the
community of Israel in Diaspora...
"We find this Sister-Bride, still searching for her lost Bridegroom, in the Song
of Songs... Up until the thirteenth century, the Bride was often associated with
Mary Magdalene. And the sacred [six-pointed star] remained in the rabbinical
tradition as the preeminent symbol for the Sacred Marriage, a promise of harmony
and well-being...
"...this emblem was a sign of the age to come." - 936:164-166

Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair died in the year 2000 on the day following Imbolc (February 1-2):
"...Pierre Plantard...[was] deceased on...February 3, 2000...at eleven hours ten minutes." (375)
Imbolc is one of four major Druidic feasts which involve ritual human sacrifice. Recall that "The
Celtic Imbolc...is a time for purification and new beginnings... Imbolc anticipates spring, although
the vernal equinox is seven weeks away. The word Imbolc refers to the pregnant condition of ewes
at Midwinter."

2000, February 3 - Death of Pierre Plantard de Saint Claire - 375

"On January 22, 1981, a short article appeared in the French press... 'A veritable
secret society of 121 dignitaries, the Prieuré de Sion...convened its Convent at
Blois on 17 January 1981... As a result of this Convent at Blois, Pierre Plantard de
Saint-Clair was elected grand master of the Order...'" - 31:214

"Vaincre is now [1998] the title of the Priory's internal bulletin, which Pierre de
Saint-Clair edits with his son Thomas." - 242:37

"...Pierre Plantard...[was] deceased on...February 3, 2000...at eleven hours ten

minutes." - 375

"...Percival becomes the king of the Grail when the planet Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and
Mercury get together." - 127:48

"...5 May of the year 2000... a date when for the first time in 6,000 years all the
planets of our solar system will be arrayed in practically a straight line across
space," - 127:53

"17 June 2000... His son, Thomas Plantard, announced the death of his father,
Pierre Plantard, to me." - 361

On May 5 of the year 2000, there occurred an event that was heralded by New Agers as the
dawning of the Age of Aquarius.

“The night of May 4, 2000, was the eve of one of the most exciting, powerful, and
transformative celestial events of our millennium according to astronomy and
astrology experts. It began with the darkest night in living memory... no moon or
planet lit up the sky as the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn
were hidden from human eyes behind the Sun. The next morning, May 5th, at 8:08
a.m. Universal Time, the longitudinal span of these five planets, Sun and Moon
collimated within a geocentric (Earth-centered) sector of 27 degrees of the
Constellation of Taurus in our Milky Way galaxy, forming a 'Grand Planetary
Alignment.'...Many cultures, including the Mayans and Hopi, have a prophecy
predicting the May 5th Grand Planetary Alignment and this time, 'the birth of the
New Age of Enlightenment' - The Age of Aquarius. On the Mayan calendar, May
5th marked the end of the 5th Sun and the birth of the 6th Sun.”- 479

MAY 5, 2000 was the close of present Age of Pisces, in New Age terms. Expected to be the
day of reckoning, decision and judgment, New Agers believe that May 5, when all of the
day of reckoning, decision and judgment, New Agers believe that May 5, when all of the
planets were in alignment, was a "cosmic moment" similar in appearance and significance to the
Star of Bethlehem which announced to the Magi the coming of the Messiah. At the turn of
every age (two millennia), there are "revolutionary transformations accompanying the change of
Ages...It is the twilight of the gods -- the Day of Judgment for the outgoing and incoming
Ages." [CalenderSign 2000]

Since the planets represent gods in the occult traditions, New Agers believe that the gods will
return to earth. Mankind is being prepared for a massive visitation of extraterrestrials (aka,
demons) who have promised to assist them in transcending matter to a higher plane of existence
-- that of pure spirit.

The sign of this transition will be the astroarcheological Star of Bethlehem, which contains
three "mystic rectangles", a "Star of David", a "Seal of Solomon", a "Grand Sextile",
superimposed upon one another to form three sets of 6 (666) with a "Grand Cross" and two five
pointed star configurations. This delusional phenomenon is depicted on The Astroarchaeological
Star of Bethlehem website.

The importance of the six-pointed Star of David in occult symbolism and ritual cannot be
overstated. A chapter on the Six-Pointed Star from Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated,
explains the occult significance of this symbol. The Six-Pointed Star: The Mark of the Beast
presents a reasonable case for its use by the Antichrist to brand his disciples in a Luciferic
initiation.

The six-pointed star has been identifed by the New Age as the Star of Bethlehem which
announces the Advent of Christ. "The Star is the symbol of the perfect life, the perfect balance,
of the Christ-man. The six-pointed star is the Star of Bethlehem, which again means the Star of
the Son of man." [GaiaMind ]

According to Wolfram von Eschenbach's poem, Parzival, the hero, "...Percival becomes the
king of the Grail when the planet Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury get together." (127:48)
Based on this planetary alignment and its occult significance, it is probable that Thomas
Plantard de Saint-Clair, the divine androgen, became the 'Grail King' around the turn of the
Millennium.

Percival was a knight in the legendary King Arthur's Dragon Court, the precursor of his famous
Round Table. In the poem, Parzival, the protagonist set out on a quest to find the Holy Grail
which, mystically, means the quest for immortality. After failure and perseverance, Percival at
last laid hold of the Holy Grail at the castle of Montsalvat ( mountain of salvation) where he ruled as
Grail King until succeeded by one of his twin sons. The legend of King Arthur has astrological
significance, the twelve knights of the 'round table' corresponding to the twelve signs of the
Zodiac's 'circle of animals'. The name Arthur, in fact, is derived from 'Artos', the Bear, and the
constellation of Ursa Major, the Great Bear, is known as Arthur's Chariot.

"The name Ursa Major, according to The New English Dictionary, 'appears to arise
out of the verbal association of the star name Arcturus with Arturus or Arthur, and the
legendary association with Arthur and Charlemagne...' In Welsh lore, the constellation
is seen as a symbol of the Celtic King Arthur; his name, it is claimed, is derived from
Arth-Uthyr, 'the wonderful bear'. So it was that the early Britons saw Arthur's Chariot
in the great constellation; 'Arthur's slow wain [wagon] his course doth roll in utter
darkness round the Pole...'. Furthermore it has been suggested that this constellation,
with its circular route, may have led to the notion of the round table (The Zodiac)...
"ARCTURUS... A golden red star situated on the left knee of Bootes, the 4th
brightest in the sky.
"Arcturus takes its name from its nearness to the sky Bears, Big and Little Bears,
Ursa Major, and Ursa Minor. From Arktouros or Arctophilax, 'the Bear Guard and
also called 'the Bear Watcher'. The 'Herdsman', or 'driver of oxen' are other titles.
 also called 'the Bear Watcher'. The 'Herdsman', or 'driver of oxen' are other titles.
"According to E W Bullinger (The Witness of the Stars), a biblical interpreter of the
constellations, the ancient Egyptians called Bootes Smat, which means one who rules,
subdues, and governs. They also called him Bau, which means also 'the coming one'. -
833 ("Ursa Major")

We mention these details of the Arthurian legend

because the Plantard family crest displays two
Rampant Bears which are esoteric symbols of the
Great Bear and Little Bear constellations, Ursa
Major and Ursa Minor. These constellations are
found in the astrological sign of Cancer and, in
this section, we have presented further
compelling evidence that Thomas Plantard de
Saint-Clair is the Antichrist.

As a matter of fact, the word 'bear' means 'beast',

the term used for the Antichrist and False Prophet
in the book of Revelation. The reader will find, in
the course of this series, that each astrological
sign has relevance to the characters and events of
Revelation. This explains the heavy promotion of
the Zodiac within the Christian community. For
there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets,
and shall shew great signs and wonders;
insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall
deceive the very elect. Mt. 24:24

AGE OF AQUARIUS

"A popular date for the beginning of the Age of Aquarius is the year 2000. If,
however, the Age of Pisces began with the ministry of Jesus (as many claim), and if
each age is 2150 years in duration, then we clearly have a long way to go before we
pass into the Age of Aquarius." - 940

HOMOSEXUAL RITES

"In the book entitled The Guilt of the Templars, we are told that 'the Knights Templar's
confessions show them to have been basically homosexual warrior order... Other
chargers were that the Knights templar participated in black magic and pederasty (anal
intercourse, usually with a boy). They practiced 'phallicism or sex-worship and
Satanism and venerated 'The Baphomet,' the idol of the Luciferians. The crime of
sodomy was a rite of Templar initiation." - 625:104

"...Baphomet [was] an androgynous (meaning both male and female figure. Satan, like
Baphomet, 'is often pictured as a hermaphrotidic deity, having a male phallus an the
breasts of a woman." - 625:104

"...in ancient Egypt, Set was worshipped with obscene, homosexual rituals. We are
told that the rituals performed for Set and Sirius were so horrible and debased 'that
later rulers of Egypt defaced their temples and obelisks and tried to drive them from
the land.' In mythology, we find that Set himself was involved in incest for he married
his sister, Nephthys." - 625:80

VIRGO'S DECAN: CENTAURUS

THE GREAT CHYREN

“Virgo, the Virgin, is the first sign. She has an ear of wheat in
one hand and a branch in the other. The wheat is actually
seed, and symbolizes the 'seed of the woman.' The branch is a
familiar Old Testament name for the Messiah. The same
woman is seen in the first Decan of this sign, Coma, holding
a baby, the Branch, or the Desire of Nations. The next Decan
in this group is Centaurus, a half-horse, half-man. This could
represent the child who is born, having two natures: being
both God and man. The last Constellation in this Sign is
Bootes, or Arcturus, who is the Great Shepherd and
Harvester. Together these images seem to portray, as in the
Bible, the virgin birth of a child who has two natures, and the
role of that child when he is grown as The Great Shepherd,
leading His flock..." (Prophecy Central) (850)

Prophecy Central, an organization that promotes the false Gospel in the Stars, presents a brief
summary of the most important signs of the 'biblical' Zodiac, as found in The Gospel In The
Stars by Joseph A. Seiss (1882), E.W. Bullinger's The Witness of the Stars (1893) and a tape by
Chuck Missler called "The Mazzaroth". All of these pseudo-Christian materials closely parallel
D. James Kennedy's Real Meaning of the Zodiac.

The first decan, or minor constellation, in Virgo is Coma. Now this constellation was identified
as Berenice's Wig in classical times, but Dr. Kennedy prefers the ancient zodiacs to ascertain the
 true meaning of Coma. According to the most ancient zodiacs, Coma "depicts a woman sitting
in a chair holding a child in her arms. This Coma means the 'Desired One,' or 'Longed for One,'
It talks about the 'desire of all nations' who should come; Jesus Christ.'" To whom does
Kennedy appeal as his authority?

"Zoroaster, the great Persian religious leader was a student of Daniel when he
was in Babylon. He learned from Daniel that a star would appear in the
constellation Coma when that One whom it foretold was to be born...
"An Arabian astronomer, Albumazar, one of the great gatherers of ancient
knowledge about astronomy that has come down to us today, said, 'There arises in
the first decan, as the two Hermes and Aescalius teach, a young woman whose
Persian name translated into Arabic is Adrenedefa, a pure and immaculate virgin,
holding in the hand two ears of corn, sitting on a throne, nourishing an infant, in
the act of feeding him, who has a Hebrew name...by some nations called
Ihesu...which we in Greek call the Christ!!!" (872:21)

That Zoroaster was a student of Daniel is a fabrication of the highest order. Born in Azerbaijan,
in northern Persia, Zoroaster was a prophet of the Eastern wisdom religion and was thought of
as one of the greatest magicians. According to the sacred book of Zoroastrianism, the 'Zend
Avesta', Zoroaster claimed to have received a vision from Ahura Mazda, the Wise Lord, who
appointed him to preach "the truth about life". As a major figure in the history of world
religions, Zoroaster became a legendary figure connected with occult knowledge and magical
practices in the Near Eastern and Mediterranean world in the Hellenistic Age (c. 300 B.C.-300
A.D.).

Kennedy also fails to identify "the two Hermes" in the above passage as Egyptian deities.
Hermes Trismegistus was the Grand Master of Hermetic magic, of the type used by the
Egyptian magicians to duplicate the miracles of Moses (Gen. 7). Evelyn Underhill wrote her
book, Mysticism, that "The tradition of magic...was formulated, developed and preserved by the
religion of Egypt... it's official name [is] Hermetic Science." (26:153) According to Blavatsky's
Secret Doctrine, "Hermes: the elder was the Trismegistus, and the second an emanation or
'permutation' of himself; the friend and instructor of Isis and Osiris." (195:xxxiii,Vol. I)

And what else did the two Hermes teach the Egyptians? Albumazar, an Arab astrologer and
Hermeticist, wrote that Isis was 'pure and immaculate': "There arises in the first decan, as the
two Hermes and Aescalius teach, a young woman whose Persian name translated into Arabic is
Adrenedefa, a pure and immaculate virgin, holding in the hand two ears of corn, sitting on a
throne, nourishing an infant, in the act of feeding him, who has a Hebrew name...by some
nations called Ihesu...which we in Greek call the Christ!!!" Remember that Kennedy believes
this immaculate virgin to be Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ.

CENTAURUS, THE CENTAUR

We have previously met the most famous Centaur in Greek mythology, Cheiron, who taught the
Hermetic sciences to Ophiuchus, the Serpent-Holder. Cheiron had two natures, part man and
part horse, which, according to the false 'gospel in the stars', prefigured the two natures of Jesus
Christ. Bullinger must torture the etymology of 'Cheiron' to find something analogous to Jesus
Christ.

"It is the figure of a being with two natures....

"The Greek name was Cheiron, which means the pierced, or who pierces. In the
Greek fables Cheiron was renowned for his skill in hunting, medicine, music,
 Greek fables Cheiron was renowned for his skill in hunting, medicine, music,
athletics, and prophecy. All the most distinguished heroes of Greece are described
as his pupils. He was supposed to be immortal, but he voluntarily agreed to die;
and, wounded by a poisoned arrow (not intended for him) while in conflict with a
wild boar, he transferred his immortality to Prometheus; whereupon he was placed
amongst the stars.
"We can easily see how this fable is the ignorant perversion of the primitive
Revelation. The true tradition can be seen dimly through it, and we can discern
Him of whom it spoke,--the all-wise, all-powerful Teacher and Prophet, who 'went
about doing good,' yet 'despised and rejected of men,' laying down His life that
others might live." (Bullinger) (939; Centaurus)

Cheiron is actually derived from the Greek word cheiro-o which means 'to handle', as the
Serpent-Holder handles the 'therapeutic serpent of wisdom and healing'. D. James Kennedy
glorifies Cheiron as a self-sacrificing prototype of Jesus Christ. Although an immortal son of
the god, Chronos [Saturn], Cheiron relinquished his immortality for the sake of others.

"...in Greek mythology, centaurs were heaven-begotten; they were sons of the
gods... The most famous centaur, and the head of all of the centaurs in Greek
mythology, was called Cheiron, who was...thought to be immortal. But, he
voluntarily agreed to die and transferred his immortality to Prometheus. Here we
see a picture of the Christ who was to come...who, though immortal, gave up His
life and transferred His immortality to others." (D. James Kennedy) (872:23)

These accounts of Cheiron's sacrifice do not quite agree with the Greek tradition.

"In Greek mythology, Chiron ('hand') was a centaur... He was a son of Cronus and
Philyra. He was probably a Thessalonian god, later subsumed into the Greek pantheon
as a centaur. He tutored Asclepius, Theseus, Achilles, Jason and Heracles. Heracles
accidentally shot him with a poisonous arrow...and Chiron willingly gave up his
immortality to escape the pain. He was placed in the sky as the constellation
Sagittarius...With the nymph Chariclo, Chiron was the father of Ocyrhoe. Alternative:
Cheiron" (956)

Here we see that Cheiron's motive was self-interest, rather than altruism. In stark contrast, Jesus
Christ willingly suffered the fullness of God's wrath as a sacrifice for the sins of mankind.

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the
chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we
like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD
hath laid on him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he
opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before
her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. - Isaiah 52:5-7

Neither Kennedy nor Bullinger mention that Cheiron, the Centaur, also trained Jason, the Greek
hero who, with his crew of fifty Argonauts (reported to be the strongest and bravest band of heroes
in Greek mythology), sailed the ship Argo in search of the Golden Fleece. "This epic tale begins
with Aeson, the rightful heir to the throne of Iolcus, and Pelias, his jealous stepbrother. When their
father, the King of Iolcus, passed away Pelias imprisoned Aeson and took the crown for himself.
However, unknown to Pelias, Aeson's wife bore a son named Jason. Averting Jason's certain death
at the hand of Pelias, his mother secreted him to the cave of Chiron, a wise and noble centaur. For
twenty years Chiron schooled Jason in the arts of the ancient world until the time came for him to
claim his birthright." (955)

Jason and the Argonauts were commissioned by King Pelias to find the Golden Fleece which was
guarded by a fierce dragon. This fable is the Greek analogue to the Celtic quest for the Holy Grail;
both are allegories about the gnostic pursuit of immortality. Manly P. Hall wrote in The Secret
Teachings of All Ages that the Golden Fleece contained the alchemical formulae for the divinity of
man:

"The Golden Fleece sought by Jason and his Argonauts is the Celestial Lamb — the
spiritual and intellectual Sun. The secret doctrine is also typified by the Golden Fleece
— the wool of the Divine Life, the rays of the Sun of Truth. Suidas declares the
Golden Fleece to have been in reality a book, written upon skin, which contained the
formulae for the production of gold by means of chemistry. The Mysteries were
institutions erected for the transmutation of base ignorance into precious illumination.
The dragon of ignorance was the terrible creature set to guard the Golden Fleece, and
represents the darkness of the old year, which battles with the Sun at the time of its
equinoctial passage." (105)

Cheiron, the Centaur, who taught Ophiuchus the Hermetic sciences, also served as Jason's mentor
and spiritual advisor in his quest for the Golden Fleece. Some accounts portray Cheiron as the
constellation Sagittarius, another centaur, who guided the Argonauts. "The Argonauts first passed
Mount Pelion where Chiron, Jason's teacher, lived. After a night's rest the Argonauts moved on.
To help guide Jason and the Argonauts, Chiron placed his likeness in the stars, as Sagittarius.
Throughout the journey, Jason would speak to Chiron through the stars." (954)

High level occultists who are privy to the secret doctrine understand that centaurs, phoenixes and
unicorns, which never really existed, are in fact archetypes that represent concepts and ideas which
are antithetical to God's revelation and decreed order for mankind. Thus, the antichrist agenda of
the occult societies is shrouded in fables about superhuman heroes and mythological beasts whose
gross physical characteristics represent the two natures of man, in occult belief, the human and the
divine. As half man and half beast, the Centaur represented this composite nature within man.

"The phoenix made its nest of incense and flames. The unicorn had the body of
a horse, the feet of an elephant, and the tail of a wild boar. The upper half of the
centaur’s body was human and the lower half equine. The pelican of the Hermetists
fed its young from its own breast, and to this bird were assigned other mysterious
attributes which could have been true only allegorically.
"Though regarded by many writers of the Middle Ages as actual living
creatures, none of these—the pelican excepted—ever existed outside the
symbolism of the Mysteries. Possibly they originated in rumors of animals then
little known. In the temple, however, they became a reality, for there they signified
the manifold characteristics of man’s nature.
"The mantichora had certain points in common with the hyena; the unicorn may
have been the single-horned rhinoceros. To the student of the secret wisdom these
composite animals and birds simply represent various forces working in the
invisible worlds. This is a point which nearly all writers on the subject of medieval
monsters seem to have overlooked. There are also legends to the effect that long
before the appearance of human beings there existed a race or species of composite
creatures which was destroyed by the gods." (999)
THE GREAT CHEYREN

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair wrote under the pseudonym
of "Cheyren," which is the French name for Cheiron:

"The...French magazine [Le Charivari]...published a character sketch of M. Plantard,

written by his first wife, Ann Léa Hisler, who died in 1971. If the magazine is to be
believed, this sketch first appeared in Circuit, the Prieuré de Sion's own internal
publication--for which M. Plantard is said to have written regularly under the
pseudonym of 'Cheyren'..." (31:221)

Pierre Plantard's unpublished MS, "Le fabuleux Trésor de Razès" is signed 'Louis Chyren.' As
'Chyren', Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire would be referring to himself as the son of Chronos who
is also Saturn and Pan. All of Cheiron's students were prototypes of the Grail King: Jason,
Aesclepius (son of Apollo), Theseus (son of Poseidon/Neptune), Achilles and Heracles (Hercules,
son of Jupiter/Zeus).

Nostradamus was a 16th century prophet who predicted the future of the world using astrological
charts and visions. The language of his prophecies is obscure and ambiguous, and many
commentaries have been published which purport to interpret their meaning. One prophecy of
Nostradamus forecast that a 'great Chyren' will restore the monarchies of France and other nations
of the world during World War III. Other prophecies establish the rightful claim of a king to the
French throne.

Quatrain 6,70
Chief of the world will the great "Chyren" be,
Plus Ultra behind, loved, feared, dreaded:
His fame and praise will go beyond the heavens,
And with the sole title of Victor will he be quite satisfied.

Quatrain 9,41
The great "Chyren" will seize Avignon,
From Rome letters in honey full of bitterness:
Letter and embassy to leave from "Chanignon,"
Carpentras taken by a black duke with a red feather.

"Avignon will be taken by this leader, making it his capital. He will receive
diplomatic letters from Rome with bad news. He will send a letter to Canino, Italy.
At this time Carpentras will be captured by the black duke with a red plume. This
last description of a duke makes one wonder if he stuck a feather in his cap, or is
poetically described as a communist.
"We have gone so far with the brothers from wood in reference to France that
Nostradamus enthusiasts may be wondering what happened to Chyren. It may be
that we have been describing Chyren in previous prophecies. If you associate the
key words, which are connected to Chyren in several prophecies, you may find a
link between the prophecies of Chyren and another character. For now we will
refrain from making this connection, treating this Chyren as distinct from other
characters. Chyren is believed by most commentators to be an anagram of Henryc.
Other prophecies indicate a possible new King Henry V of France. He is
expected to rise in WW III, restoring the monarchy and saving France and
other nations. Before we get into the other prophecies, which seem to establish his
 claim to the throne, let's explore this anagram Chyren. Henryc would be
abbreviated from the Latin Henrycus. Nostradamus used the i and y
interchangeably. Some editions render it Chiren. He could have used any of the
letters from Henry to Henrycus. Chiren is also very close to Chiron (Greek
Cheiron.) If we treat Cheiron as an anagram, dropping the o, we could derive
Chiren! Cheiron was the wisest of all Centaurs, famous for his knowledge of
medicine. It should be remembered that a person born with any name, rising to
kingship may take the title he wishes." (908)

The 'great Chyren', according to Nostradamus, will bring peace to the world, but only after he
has conducted a global reign of terror to expunge his enemies and all rebels.

There will be a new ruler system in the seventh millenium. The truth of my
professes
Will only be recognised when this is acted into society.
The new king is "The Great Chyren", the new man and key-figure of the 21st
century.
The great Chyren will have many nicknames:
- The conquerer of the half moon
- The general of the nobles
- The great Jupiter man
- Conquerer and leader of the world
- Hendrik the lucky one
‘The great Chyren’ will become the leader of the world. This name and fortune will
live long after his death. A short period after his death he will be given the title:
‘The Conquerer’.
He and his followers will come to a high power position. The Kingdom will be
governed
By Chyren. Who will do this in a very proper way. He gives the people on the
earth ‘peace’ for 57 years.
May all the other nobles see that it is him who has been sent from heaven and may
these Nobles honour him.
In this hand he holds a curve-staff. The curve holding in his hands, standing in
front of
The window in the middle. He will hit everyone with it.
"The terrible revange begins".
Will be the terror of human kind. The lightning from his staff will be
dangerous.
Will shake the earth and see all countries. He will punish the rebels.
There will never be anyone like him.
The unconquerable, very powerfull, very Christian and Muslim: The Great
Chyren.
His followers shall not be murdered. And he will free all a great nation from great
troubles. (909)

Similar prophecies concerning this 'Great Cheyren' are also found in the pages of Scripture,
however, the length of his reign will be shortened to 3.5 years:

After this I saw in the night visions, and behold a fourth beast, dreadful and
terrible, and strong exceedingly; and it had great iron teeth: it devoured and brake
in pieces, and stamped the residue with the feet of it: and it was diverse from all the
beasts that were before it; and it had ten horns. - Dan. 7:7

Then I would know the truth of the fourth beast, which was diverse from all the
others, exceeding dreadful, whose teeth were of iron, and his nails of brass; which
devoured, brake in pieces, and stamped the residue with his feet;... - Dan. 7:19

Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall
be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it
down, and break it in pieces. - Dan. 7:23

And through his policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall
magnify himself in his heart, and by peace shall destroy many: he shall also stand
up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand. - Dan. 8:28

And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles
before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast,
and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire
burning with brimstone. - Rev. 19:20

LIBRA

THE SCALES OF JUSTICE

"In Libra we see two scales, one higher and one

lower. These scales represent the whole theme of
redemption, or purchase, and describe a commercial
transaction... It is a picture of a man weighed in the
scales and found wanting; man, ruined, condemned;
man, with his life added up and found wholly in
vanity and wholly wanting and insufficient to meet
the requirements of God..." (Kennedy) 872:28

"The Egyptians also saw in Libra, a set of Scales, called

'the Scales Of Maat', one in which the human heart was to
be weighed after death." (1043:'Libra')

We note here an anomaly, that the message of salvation in the 'gospel of the stars' is out of
order. In the so-called 'biblical' Zodiac, the sign of Virgo, which represents a virgin conceiving
the Christ, the “seed of the woman”, precedes the sign of Libra which advocates of this false
gospel state symbolizes the fact that mankind has sinned. In the Book of Genesis, however, the
promise of the “seed of the woman” (Gen. 3:15) is given AFTER the fall of man into sin (Gen.
3:1-14). So why does Libra follow Virgo in the 'Biblical Zodiac' just as it does in the pagan
Zodiac? It is noteworthy that D. James Kennedy never identifies the cause of mankind's ruined
condition as sin, leaving open the possibility that there is another reason for the fallen state of
the human race.

We saw in the previous section that Virgo was once joined to Scorpio, but after the fall Virgo
and Scorpio were separated and Virgo became Scorpio. This esoteric doctrine is known only to
and Scorpio were separated and Virgo became Scorpio. This esoteric doctrine is known only to
initiates, as Blavatsky stated in Isis Unveiled.

"...in ancient times...only ten [signs of the Zodiac] were known to the profane; the
initiates, however, knew them all, from the time of the separation of mankind into
sexes, whence arose the separation of Virgo-Scorpio into two; which owning to a
secret sign added and the Libra invented by the Greeks, instead of the secret name
which was not given, made 12... The Adam of the first chapter is the spiritual,
therefore pure androgyne, Adam-Kadmon. When woman issues from the left rib of
the second Adam (of dust), the pure Virgo is separated, and falling 'into generation,'
or the downward cycle, becomes Scorpio emblem of sin and matter." (209:502ff)

Religious authorities would take a dim view of the Black Virgin if they knew that she was once
Virgo-Scorpio, the divine Androgyne. Therefore, the exoteric interpretation of the original dual
nature of Virgo, as found in most occult literature, is that Virgo was once Libra, Virgo-Libra.
However, this happy state of affairs ended when "Virgo...sickened by the wars of men, was the
last of the celestial beings to leave the earth for the heavens, hence she is sometimes depicted
with the wings that she used to ascend to the stars." Virgo now holds a sword instead of a
sheaf signifying an ongoing conflict in the age of Pisces. Ean Begg described this state of war
in The Cult of the Black Virgin:

"There is, in fact, a duality at the heart of Virgo, echoing, in the age of Pisces, the
contradictory nature of the two fishes. A glance at the Tarot card Justice, generally
associated with the star maiden Virgo, shows her with the sword in her right hand
and a pair of scales in her left, reminding us that Virgo and Libra were once one.
Now, Venus-ruled Libra has been sundered from Virgo, whose lord is androgynous
Mercury. Balance, mercy, harmony, equilibrium have been split off from
Justice, who, now, wields Spica, the spike or point, rather than Spica the ear of
corn..." (272:138)

"This is Spica, an ear of corn. On Denerah Virgo is Isis. Spica in Hebrew astrology
is named Tsemech or 'branch'. This name is symbolic of a coming son or branch."

Virgo and Pisces, which are opposite signs on the Zodiac, represent two opposing streams of
Christianity—the feminist Gnostic tradition which is vying to overthrow traditional, doctrinal
Christianity. Occultists despise the literal interpretation of Scripture.

"Virgo as the opposite sign to Christian Pisces, represents its beloved ideal, its
bride and the reflection of the blind-spot in its soul. To Albertus Magnus it was
Christ's rising sign. The literalization of the virginity of Mary, like the literalization
of Eve's role as the wicked temptress of Genesis, broke the heart of Christianity and
works of reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary
have still not wholly healed the wound." (272:139)

Having justified Eve's sin in the Garden of Eden and trashed the virgin birth of Jesus Christ,
doctrines upheld by the Roman Catholic Church, Begg proceeds to misinterpret the woman of
Revelation 12 as Virgo, personified by Mary Magdalene. Catharism was the gnostic heresy that
took root and still thrives in the south of France, where the Magdalene was venerated as the
Black Virgin.

"So, if a troubadour sings of his wife and his mistress, he may well be referring
to the Church of Rome and Catharism. She is nagging and dangerous, this Lady,
 to the Church of Rome and Catharism. She is nagging and dangerous, this Lady,
Rome, and one should not eat her meal (i.e. the Eucharist). Amor, the dark
mistress, hidden underground, is the true source of light and inspiration...
"Thus the dichotomy of the virgin and the whore, the good mother and the witch,
continues to gnaw like an unresolved canker at the soul of modern man. The author
of the Book of Revelation suffered severely from this split. The Great Woman of
Heaven, the sign Virgo, the Holy Spirit and Mary Magdalene, brings forth a son
who is to rule all nations with a rod of iron. She is at war with her neighbouring
constellation of Hydra, the adversary of Hercules in his Cancer labour, associated
here with the Great Whore of Babylon, who holds a golden cup 'full of
abominations and filthiness of her fornication'." (272:139)

Begg manages to bifurcate the issue into a false dichotomy, presenting the situation as having
only two alternatives, when in fact other alternatives exist. The Roman Church is assuredly the
Great Whore, however, the Cathar Church is not therefore the virtuous woman. This fallacious
reasoning is the standard approach in a global smear campaign to overthrow the Roman Church
and elevate the Gnostic Church as true Christianity. To further support this fallacy, Begg
proffers his Biblically ignorant readers a tangled clump of Bible prophecy and pagan
mythology.

In the Zodiac, there are many serpentine creatures—the hydra, dragon, scorpion—all of which,
from the perspective of the Gnostic occultist, symbolize traditional Christianity. There is a well-
organized campaign to misrepresent these beasts, as found in Scripture, as the Church of Rome.
Assuredly, the demise of the Roman Church is foretold in Bible prophecy, but as the Great
Whore of Babylon, not the Great Dragon. The destruction of the Church of Rome is
documented in Revelation 17:9: "And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are
seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth." (KJV) Rome has historically been called the
City on Seven Hills. In modern translations, however, this verse is altered, as well as verse 10,
obfuscating the identity of the Great Whore of Babylon. The confusion is undoubtedly
intentional.

Gnosticism was the attempt by certain occultists of Alexandria to synthesize Christianity with
paganism. To conceal the fact that Gnosticism is based in the occult rather than Christian
doctrine, the Alexandrian Gnostics radically reinterpreted the New Testament and counterfeited
books which they deceptively attributed to the authors of the New Testament. The Alexandrian
Gnostics are credited with first introducing the heresy that Mary Magdalene was the wife of
Jesus Christ, and that their offspring (the Merovingian bloodline) transmitted the 'secret
doctrine' to the Merovingians of South France, where the Magdalene is claimed to have
relocated after the death of Christ:

"It seemed that most of the Gnostic wisdom literature...and many of the finest
Gnostic writings, are of Alexandrian inspiration or origin. Alexandria is also the
main source of Gnostic works linking Jesus with Mary Magdalene. According to
this tradition it was through the Magdalene, rather than through Peter and the male
apostles, that Jesus transmitted the secret doctrine." - (272:129)

What has been remarkable is to discover theologians at D. James Kennedy's 'Reformed'

seminary echoing the Gnostic works of known occultists. The following Gnostic interpretation
of the Book of Revelation is posted on the website of Knox Theological Seminary, whose
president is Dr. Kennedy. "The Gospel of John: A Neglected Key to Revelation?" interprets the
Book of Revelation, not as prophecy to be taken literally, but as a parallel to the gospel of John.
The authors conclude this flight of fancy by implying that Jesus was married to Mary Magdale!
The authors conclude this flight of fancy by implying that Jesus was married to Mary Magdale!

"The Gospel [of John] concludes with a woman and Jesus in an earthly garden
(John 20:15). Jesus tells Mary that He must ascend to His Father (John 20:17).
Revelation concludes with the bride descending from the Father to be received by
her Groom (Rev 21:9-10), coming to a heavenly garden with the river of crystal
and the tree of life (Rev 22:1-2). The Gospel's picture of the bride, corresponding
to the bride of Revelation, is Mary Magdalene. Now the choice of this Mary to
represent the bride is remarkable due to her reputation within the Christian
community as the one from whom the Lord had cast out seven demons (Luke 8:2).
Consequently, one who had known every form of demonic defilement (cf. Luke
11:26) is chosen by John to represent the bride of Jesus. When read thematically in
parallel with Revelation, the redemption of Mary Magdalene is juxtaposed to the
redemption of the whore of Babylon, who becomes the bride of Christ. Once again,
the parallel maintains a perfect thematic equipoise with Revelation. The marriage
imagery in the Gospel is an implicit Adam typology, with the Lord awakening in
the garden tomb as a new Adam. His wounded side (John 19:34) having been
healed, Jesus beholds Mary Magdalene, who has become the new Eve."
(829:Part I)

Not only is the marriage imagery of Jesus Christ and Mary Magdalene misguided, the goddess
motif is present with Mary Magdalene becoming the New Eve, the wife of Jesus who is called
the New Adam. The 'Reformed' are beginning to sound suspiciously Merovingian. In their
desperation to keep their church members from understanding the literal meaning of the book of
Revelation, Reformed leaders are now revealing just how gnostic their interpretation of this
prophetic book really is.

The New Adam/New Eve concept of Jesus and Mary is also promoted by the present pope who
is a devotee of the Black Virgin: "...Pope John Paul II says, 'Having created man male and
female, the Lord also wants to place the New Eve beside the new Adam in the
Redemption...Mary, the New Eve, thus becomes a perfect icon of the church...we can therefore
turn to the Blessed Virgin, trustfully imploring her aid in the awareness of the singular role
entrusted to her by God, the role of co-operator in the Redemption.'" (849)

The New Adam/New Eve typology derives from the Kabalistic doctrine of the androgynous
Adam Kadmon (Second Adam/New Eve), whose archetype is Virgo-Scorpio and whose
offspring, following reunion, is a divine androgyne. It appears that the Reformed are departing
from their Reformation heritage to a new Christology which incorporates the sacred marriage
blasphemy.

The sign of Libra symbolizes a future restoration of the balance between Virgo and Scorpio, per
H.P. Blavatsky:

“To make it clearer, the sign Virgo-Scorpio... now became Scorpio (or Cain),
which sign or patriarch led mankind to destruction, according to exoteric theology;
but, according to the true doctrine of the wisdom-religion, it indicated the
degradation of the whole universe in its course of evolution downward from the
subjective to the objective. The sign of Libra is credited as a later invention by the
Greeks, but it is not generally stated that those among them who were initiated had
only made a change of names conveying the same idea as the secret name to those
‘who knew,’ leaving the masses as unwise as ever. Yet it was a beautiful idea of
theirs, this Libra, or the balance, expressing as much as could possibly be done
 theirs, this Libra, or the balance, expressing as much as could possibly be done
without unveiling the whole and ultimate truth. They intended it to imply that when
the course of evolution had taken the worlds to the lowest point of grossness, where
the earths and their products were coarsest, and their inhabitants most brutish, the
turning-point had been reached--the forces were at an even balance. At the lowest
point, the still lingering divine spark within began to convey the upward impulse.
The scales typified that external equilibrium which is the necessity of a universe in
harmony, of exact justice, of the balance of centripetal and centrifugal forces,
darkness and light, spirit and matter.” (195:456-7:Vol.II)

What Blavatsky is saying is that to achieve equilibrium, the exoteric symbolism of Libra as the
Scales of Justice will be asserted in the upcoming restoration of Virgo-Scorpio.

"In the modern zodiac, the sign of the Scales rules the period from 9/24 - 10/23.
The only sign of the zodiac which is not a living thing, the scales were placed to
represent the balance present at the time of the equinox. Some scholars believe that
at one time, the Scales were the last sign of the zodiac, the mother goddess Virgo
being the first. For this reason, it is believed in some Islamic areas that the 'end of
the world' will come in Libra, at the time of cosmic balancing and justice." (668)

What is meant by this "time of cosmic balancing and justice" at the end of the world?

MA'AT

The sign of Libra is depicted as the Scales of Justice. According to The Fixed Stars, by Anne
Wright, "From time immemorial the scales have been the principle attribute of justice, it being
impossible to even a little right with any quantity of wrong. Scales are emblems of Themis as
law, order and truth [Brewers Book of Myth and Legend, p.253]. The Egyptians also saw in
Libra, a set of Scales, called 'the Scales Of Maat', one in which the human heart was to be
weighed after death." The author proceeds to describe the judgment of souls in the Egyptian
mystery religion:

"Psychostasis, or the weighing of souls, is a famous subject of Ancient Egyptian

theology and art, symbolizing God's judgement of the individual after death and all
the formidable apparatus of justice. The scene is generally set as follows: the scales
stand in the centre with the symbol of the dead person's conscience, the heart,
enclosed in an urn, in one pan. In the other is the goddess Maat's ostrich-feather,
the symbol of justice. The ibis-headed god, Thoth, stands on the right ready to
record the judgement, while on the left stands the jackal-headed god, Anubis,
holding the dead person's hand and leading him towards the scales. In his other
hand the god holds an ankh, the symbol of the eternal life which the dead person
hopes to obtain. Anubis casts a keen eye upon the beam of the scales while the
dead person makes a confession. This is really a negative confession in the sense
that the sins listed are those which have not been committed. At the God's feet the
Crocodile Devourer, with gaping jaws and a group of hippopotami behind it, waits
for Thoth to give his verdict. If the feather is heavier, the dead person is saved, but
if it is his conscience, then he is doomed. The scene sometimes takes place in the
presence of the great gods, Ra, Osiris and Isis, assisted by forty-two assessors
armed with knives, the latter being the canonical number of sins. Psychostasis
means that no human action is insignificant in God's sight. It symbolizes judgement,
but, at a deeper level, responsibility as well." (833:'Libra')
The Egyptian hierarchy of gods, as Blavatsky identifies them, were "Kings of Egypt, the gods
Keb, Osiris, Set, Horus, Thoth-Hermes, and the goddess Ma, a long period of centuries being
assigned to the reign of each of these." (897:368,II) Ma or Ma'at was the consort/sister of
Thoth-Hermes, who fled from Atlantis to Egypt where he taught the Egyptians what became
known as the Hermetic arts and sciences. Ma'at was sometimes represented as twins; when
associated with the Black Virgin, Isis, she is Isis-Ma'at:

"The ankh which Isis carries as supreme initiatrix may account for some of the
oddly shaped sceptres carried by Black Virgins... Her own name is considered by
many scholars to mean 'throne', while to others, when combined with Maat, it
signifies 'ancient wisdom'... The Black Virgin...is also the ancient wisdom of Isis-
Maat, the secret of eternal life that is the gold at the end of the alchemical process."
(272:131)

Maat personified all the elements of cosmic harmony as established by the pagan 'creator-god'
at the beginning of time. These included truth, justice and moral integrity, as well as established
order and structure. The name 'Maat' meant 'truth' or more particularly, 'that which is straight' or
orderly. So when gnostic occultists speak of "truth," they are referring to a mythical teenage girl
goddess who rules the universe rather than the person of Jesus Christ who, as God, is "the way,
the truth, and the life" (John 14:6) and "upholds all things by the word of his power" (Heb. 1:3).

"...at the top of the universal order stood a goddess, a teenage girl goddess who
was often represented as a pair of twins, Ma'at. This unprepossessing goddess
literally ruled everything. She was not the sun and she was not power and strength;
she represented, rather, an abstraction. She was 'Truth' or 'Order.' For the Egyptian
believed that the universe was above everything else an ordered and rational place.
It functioned with predictability and regularity; the cycles of the universe always
remained constant; in the moral sphere, purity was rewarded and sin was punished.
Both morally and physically, the universe was in perfect balance.
"The Egyptian word for this balance was the Egyptian word for 'truth,' ma'at; this
is perhaps the single most important aspect of Egyptian culture that you can learn.
For once you really understand this concept, the whole of Egyptian culture begins
to make sense. The order of the universe (ma'at ) functioned with unswerving
accuracy; it was maintained by the goddess Ma'at. This meant that the concept of
"truth' meant for the Egyptian the rational and orderly working of the universe
rather than its diverse phenomena. The Egyptian, then, believed that he or she
understood how the universe operated; all phenomena could be explained by an
appeal to this understanding of the rationality of the universe.
"I cannot emphasize strongly enough how important this concept of ma'at is to
subsequent history. This idea that the universe is rational and that the 'truth' of the
universe is the underlying rationality and order of the universe rather than its
diverse phenomena, passed from the Egyptians to the Greeks." (1040)

Ma'at was the antithesis of Set/Seth, who brought chaos into the world. "Storms were the
provenance of the god Seth, who also represented chaos, evil and confusion, among other
negative qualities. The goddess Ma'at, in many ways in positive counterpart, represented the
deified concept of world order, balance, harmony, justice, and truth." (1039:34) As primordial
archetype, Ma'at was credited with bringing order out of the chaos produced by the Great
Flood. "'Maat' has two meanings in the ancient Egyptian language. Maat is first the goddess of
justice and truth, who gave meaning to the world and bestowed order upon the chaos of
creation in the First Times." (1042) Ma'at maintained the ordered processes of the universe,
assuring balance, harmony and rationality. She governed the movement of the stars, the rising
assuring balance, harmony and rationality. She governed the movement of the stars, the rising
and setting of the sun, the inundation and retreat of the Nile, and the laws underlying all of
nature. Without Maat the whole structure of Creation would collapse under the power of Chaos.

Maat also presided over the judgment of every human being after death. This terrifying
encounter occurred in the Judgment Hall of the Tuat or Other World: "Maat also plays an
important part in the Book of the Dead. It is in the Hall of Maat the judgement of the dead was
performed. This was done by weighing one's heart (conscience) against the feather of Maat. If a
balance was struck the deceased was deemed to be worthy of meeting Osiris in the after life. If
the heart of the deceased was found to be heavier then the feather of Maat it would be devoured
by Ammut." (1041)

As the goddess of order and harmony, Ma'at was said to represent the natural law or universal
law. In the Hall of Ma'at, those who had obeyed the natural law were saved; those who violated
the natural law perished.

"From this role in the Judgement Hall arose the interpretation of 'maat' as a
systemized spiritual ideal. The order she represents was apparent everywhere in
the world around her faithful worshippers. It was observed in the orderly motion
and interaction of the heavenly bodies and reflected in the natural laws at work on
the earth. It was deemed necessary to act in accordance with universal law and to
understand one's place in the natural order to ensure the soul's position among the
stars above.
"Maat is the underlying current that connects all things in an intricately woven
network. Each nexus is the balance of the lines of force that pass through it. It was
considered essential to live according to the principles of balance and justice so as
not to disturb the very fabric of creation. The ultimate will of the gods is that order
is to prevail." (1042)

Natural law is defined by Webster's Dictionary as “discernible to reason, as distinguished from

law laid down in codes by state, church, etc.” Natural law is contrary to that law which is found
in Scripture, be it the Mosaic Law or the Royal Law of Love enunciated by Jesus Christ. The
apostle Paul exalted the law of God far above that form of law which is according to human
reason. "For the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are
foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." (Rom.
7:14)

The Declaration of Independence opens with a declaration of human rights deriving, not from
Holy Scripture, but from Natural Law: “When in the Course of human events, it becomes
necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with
another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which
the Laws of Nature and of Nature's God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of
mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.”

In ancient and classical mythology, 'Nature's God' is Pan, the god of lust. The author of the
Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson was not a Christian; his philosophy was
Masonic (whether or not he ever joined a Lodge) and his religion was deism, which is,
according to Webster “a movement or system of thought advocating natural religions based on
human reason rather than revelation, emphasizing morality, and in the 18th century denying the
interference of the Creator with the laws of the universe.”
The reader may be surprised to learn that the All-Seeing Eye of Freemasonry originally
belonged to Ma'at, and was only later transferred to Horus. By means of its limitless powers of
clairvoyance, Ma'at was privy to every action, as well as thought and motive, of her subjects. In
her book, Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated, Cathy Burns quoted Texe Marrs and Laurie
Cabot, "the official Witch of Salem," on this matter:

"The Egyptian priesthood taught first that Maat, the Goddess of truth and judgment,
possessed a third eye. Later the central text of the Egyptian Mystery Religion was
revised and a male god, Horus, son of the Goddess, was given the all-seeing eye."
Laurie Cabot agrees that the 'Egyptian Goddess Maat originally possessed the All-
seeing Eye, which later was transferred to Horus.' She adds: 'Outlining the eye
emulates the Goddess, who is often portrayed with large, distinctive eyes, capable
of seeing through space and time as well as into our innermost hearts...'" (39:368)

The All-Seeing Eye on the dollar bill of the United States illustrates the intense gaze of Ma'at
upon mankind and portends a coming judgment based on the concept of Ma'at:

"Today the dollar bill bears the image of a pyramid with an eye set within it, which
is the most ancient image of all images in daily use because it has come down to us
from before the time of Sequenenre Tao, escaping the purge of Egyptian motifs of
the king-making ceremony caused by the prophet Ezekiel during the Babylonian
captivity of the Jews. It represents God (in the form of Amen-Re) having an ever-
present eye, casting His gaze over His people to judge every action they make in
life, so that they will receive their just deserts in death. The whole basis of Ma'at
was a measurement of the goodness done in life as seen by God." (162:356)

Symbolizing the mathematical precision with which Ma'at ruled the universe are the Square and
the Compass, which are also the symbols of Freemasonry. Once more, the symbolism of
Freemasonry is discovered to be representing Ma'at:

"Masonic author, Albert Churchward writes: 'The Square is also very clearly
depicted, symbolically, in the Egyptian Ritual and is plainly shown in The Book of
the Dead, ... This Square you find depicted in many of the ancient temples and in
the Great Pyramid, as two seats, one for Osiris and one for Maat—IT IS THE
MASONIC SQUARE.'" (39:318)

Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas go as far as to say, in The Hiram Key, that Ma'at is, not
only the 'spirit of Freemasonry', Ma'at is Freemasonry.

"'Ma'at-neb-men-aa, Ma'a-ba-aa'
"Those readers who are Freemasons will recognise these words but will be
astounded to know that they are pure ancient Egyptian. Their meaning is
breathtaking:
"Great is the established Master of Freemasonry. Great is the spirit of
Freemasonry.'
"We have translated 'Ma'at' as 'Freemasonry' because there is no other modern
single word that comes close to the original complex concept that conveyed a
whole bundle of ideas around 'truth, justice, fairness, harmony and moral rectitude
as symbolised by the regular purity of the perfectly upright and square foundations
of a temple'. Ma'at was...an attitude of life that blended the three most important
values that mankind possesses, namely the knowledge of science, the beauty of art
and the spirituality of theology. That is the craft of Freemasonry...
 and the spirituality of theology. That is the craft of Freemasonry...
"...they have been viewed as the 'magic words', the incantation which made the
resurrection of the new candidate something more than symbolic... The newly
resurrected candidate is the spirit of Ma'at (Freemasonry) living on past the deaths
of those that have gone before." (162:143-4)

Knight and Lomas imply there will be a future "attempt to restore the 'balance' or cosmic order
of the world, i.e. Maat, as it was in the 'First Time'." The restoration of the cosmic order would
be performed by a future 'council of the gods', using the Scales of Maat in a global Judgment of
Solomon.

"Cosmic Order, in the symbolic terminology of the ancient Egyptians, was

known as Maat. The same word also means 'justice' and 'law' -- for example the
justice that was exercised by the 'council of the gods' of Heliopolis when they
judged in favour of Horus, after his conflict with Seth, and passed on to him the
legacy of the Osirian throne.
"The ancient Egyptian religious texts transmit details of one of the high rituals of
Osirian liturgy — the 'weighing of the soul' of the dead in the Great Judgment Hall
of Osiris. This is a sort of archetypal 'Judgment of Solomon', with the weighing
being done on the Great Scales of Maat. These latter have a name — Mekhaat —
which means in other contexts 'the balance of the Earth'.
"The hieroglyphic determinative sign for the verb 'to weigh' shows a triangle, or
builder's 'square', with a plumb-bob suspended from the apex — a sign which can
also mean 'balance in the earth'. The triangle distinctly recalls the profile or cross-
section of a pyramid...
"Perhaps the Great Pyramid -- the terrestrial counterpart of the star Al Nitak
was seen as a weighing device or 'instrument' playing its part in some as yet
unexplained attempt to restore the 'balance' or cosmic order of the world, i.e. Maat,
as it was in the 'First Time'...
"...The Queen's Chamber lies along the centre-line of the Pyramid." (162:278-
82)

"The Great Pyramid (of Egypt) is in itself a sign of the 7 stars comprising as it
does, the square and triangle in one figure and the other 2 pyramids near this one,
represent the sun and moon." (9:277-78)

According to Richard Allen Hinckley, author of Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning, Ma'at is
also Vega, which is Lucifer: "The Egyptians also saw in Libra, a set of Scales, called 'the
Scales Of Maat', one in which the human heart was to be weighed after death." (833, 'Libra') To
understand the Ma'at-Lucifer connection, please refer to the section of this report on Sagittarius.

LIBRA: EQUALITY & FRATERNITY

There is a precedent for the sign of Libra in action. During the French Revolution, on October
16, 1793, which fell under the sign of Libra, Marie Antoinette, the Queen of France as wife of
Louis XVI, was convicted of treason and guillotined in Paris. Jasper Ridley wrote of the
invention of the guillotine during the French Revolution in his book, The Freemasons: A
History of the World's Most Powerful Secret Society: "The guillotine was named after Dr.
Joseph Guillotin, a medical doctor who...was a Freemason. He had said...that it was essential to
have an instrument to carry out the death penalty as quickly and painlessly as possible, though
it was not he, but some technicians, who had then constructed the guillotine." (542:140)
The guillotine would serve to facilitate the 'reign of terror' conducted by Robespierre, the
Jacobins and Napoleon:

"Guillotin...proposed to the constituent assembly...the use of a decapitating

instrument as a means of execution. This was adopted in 1791 and named after
him, though a similar apparatus had been used earlier in Scotland, Germany and
Italy...
"(1793-4) The extreme phase of the French Revolution, characterized by the
systematic execution of political opponents of the Jacobins and supposed
sympathizers of the Counter-Revolution, who were brought before the
Revolutionary Tribunal, and guillotined. 40,000 people are thought to have been
killed in Paris and the provinces." (218:496)

“Liberty, Equality and Fraternity” was a motto formulated to articulate the ideals and
aspirations of the oppressed under the opulent French monarchy. However, what happened in
the wake of this Masonic rallying cry was another affair altogether. The awful brutality of the
French Revolution is detailed in Texe Marrs' article, “Revolution of Blood”:

Liberty, Equality, Fraternity

“The rallying cry and motto of the Illuminati in France was, “Liberty, Equality,
Fraternity!” Seemingly worthy goals. But in reality, the actual meaning and
operation of these three terms was diabolical.
“The word “Liberty,” to Illuminism, means liberty of man from God, the liberty
of man to do as he wants, when he wants, free of the shackles of the Christian
religion. Rebellion and anarchy are to be used to achieve such liberty.
“Equality,” meanwhile, implies that all authority is to be smashed and that no
man should own more goods than his fellows. Man would have little or no property
to tie him down, no family or children, no cities, no government. Instead, rewilded
man would live pure in nature in a savage and primitive, yet exalted, state.
“Fraternity” means that all men are to be brothers, the artificial strictures of
national borders, religions, and races, etc. obliterated.
“To attain these goals of Liberty, Equality, Fraternity, a Masonic physician, Dr.
Guillotine, invented a bloody, head-chopping blade machine, and heads began to
roll. The King and the Queen were just two of thousands executed. Next,
perceiving the guillotine as too cumbersome and slow—only one person at a time
was beheaded—other killing methods were employed.
Christians and Churches Persecuted
“Christians in towns and cities across France who refused to renounce Christ
were bound hand and foot and loaded onto boats. The boats were pushed out into
deep waters of rivers. Riflemen would then shoot holes in the boats. Plaintive
screams and cries were heard as the vessels sank and helpless, bound Christians
drowned.
“Protestant ministers and Catholic priests alike had their eyes gouged out. Many
were shot, others bayoneted, still others stomped to death or killed with the sword.
Crazed rioters tore many to pieces. Some who renounced Christ were spared after
being humiliated.
“Inside churches, revolutionary mobs shattered stain glass windows, defecated on
and destroyed pews, and threw down crosses and urinated on them. In some
churches, naked women paraded inside as “Lady Liberty,” proceeding to the altar
where they were adored and pawed at by drunken revelers shouting obscenities at
God. Pornographic art was displayed in galleries and in homes.
“Across France, over three million people perished—many of whom were small
 “Across France, over three million people perished—many of whom were small
merchants and shop owners, simple farmers, and God-fearing elderly persons. In
some cases, entire towns were razed and destroyed.
“Finally, the executors became the executed. Robespierre, chief of the Illuminati
butchers, was, in turn, himself dragged to the gallows and his head lopped off. It
was the bloodthirsty feasting upon the bloodthirsty. Terror begetting terror.
“When the Terror finally exhausted itself, the fake messiah, Napoleon, appeared
on the scene. Many more died in the wars and famine that ensued after the
crowning of the little Corsican dictator.” (2003)

The French messiah, Napoleon, was well-connected with the Merovingian bloodline. According
to Guardians of the Grail, by J.R. Church, he married into the Merovingian dynasty:

“Merovee died in 458 A.D., leaving the throne to his son, Childeric I. Though the
grave of Merovee has never been found, the grave of Childeric I was found in
1653. 'The tomb contained...items less characteristic of kingship than of magic,
sorcery, and divination—a severed horse's head, a bull's head made of gold and a
crystal ball!'... There were other items of interest also found in the tomb of King
Childeric I, son of Merovee and father of Clovis—a special set of 300 miniature
solid gold bees!... [T]he bees...were given to Leopold Wilhelm von Habsburg,
military governor of the Austrian Netherlands, who was considered to be a
descendant of the Merovingian dynasty. By 1804, when Napoleon was crowned
emperor, those 300 bees had been returned to France. Having special importance to
Napoleon, he had them affixed to his coronation robes. Napoleon, of course, had a
special interest in the Merovingian dynasty. In 1810, Napoleon married Marie-
Louise, the daughter of Francis II, the last Habsburg to sit on the throne of the Holy
Roman Empire.” (127:81-2)

J.R. claims the occult meaning of the bees is not known, however, they are found on the
Plantard family crest and their significance is explained by Kenneth Grant, the Grand Master of
the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO), the organization once directed by Aleister Crowley.

“In the Typhonian Tradition the Bear is the constellation of Ursa Major. The
stars must be aligned in a specific way in order for Set [Satan] to be properly
invoked. To the Priory of Sion (the secret, occult organization dedicated to
preserving the Merovingian Bloodline), the Bear was an animal of the Goddess
Diana. According to Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, the authors of The Templar
Revelation, ' ...the Merovingian kings, from their founder Merovee to Clovis (who
converted to Christianity in 496) were 'pagan kings of the cult of Diana'.' Picknet
and Prince got this information from the Dossiers Secrets of the Priory of Sion. The
bees, which are a recurring symbol of the Merovingians are, in the Typhonian
Tradition, represented frequently as the humming or buzzing sound that occurs
before the appearance of the Great Old Ones or 'beings' proper to this tradition.
Grant writes 'The bee, beetle, or crab, is therefore the link between the earliest
manifestation of the Typhonion current and its final phases.'... There are eleven
bees because eleven is the number of Magick and of the sephirah on the Tree of
Life, called Daath, which is the 'Gateway' to the backside of the Tree and to the
Gods...” (571)

Returning to the French Revolution, one month after the beheading of the Queen, Marie
Antoinette, the “Goddess of Reason” was enthroned by proxy in Notre Dame Cathedral—the
same cathedral named in honor of 'Notre Dame de Lumières' (Our Lady of the Lights/Lucifer)
same cathedral named in honor of 'Notre Dame de Lumières' (Our Lady of the Lights/Lucifer)
whom Pierre Plantard de Saint-Claire identified as being Isis. According to Brewer's Dictionary
of Phrase and Fable, the Goddess of Liberty also became a popular idol in many French
churches which were converted into pagan temples.

"The Goddess of Reason [was] the central figure in an attempt to supersede

Christianity during the French Revolution. The first Feast of Reason was held on
20th Brumaire [November 11], 1793, when the 'goddess', Mlle Candeille of the
Opera, was enthroned in Notre Dame Cathedral, which became the Temple of
Reason. She was dressed in white with a red Phrygian cap (liberty cap) and the
pike of Jupiter-Peuple in her hand. Mme Momoro, wife of a member of the
Convention, was later installed at St Sulpice. Goddesses of Liberty and Reason
were soon set up throughout France, one allegedly wearing a fillet bearing the
words 'Turn me not into License!' Saturnalia of an uninhibited kind accompanied
these installations." (842:457)

On June 8, 1794, was held the Inaugural Feast of the Supreme Being and of Nature. This feast
would have been a celebration of the lusty god of nature, Pan. The laws of nature's god, Pan,
also called the Natural Law, governed mankind in the pre-flood era. The lawlessness of nature
was bluntly articulated by the British spy and occultist known as 'The Beast': "Aleister
Crowley's...work call(ed) the...Book of the Law was reducible to a single precept...'Do what
thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law."' (36:58)

The French Revolution reveals the type of Justice that is signified by the Scales of Libra—a
form of justice that will be enforced 'at the end of the world'. This is precisely what the occult
underground, now the occult establishment, have envisioned as the necessary final phase of
mankind's release from its prison of matter into the Great Beyond. At some point in the near
future, the sign of Libra will again assert its influence over mankind and another reign of terror
will ensue, this time on a global scale.

THE GREAT TRIBULATION

Let us consider a few parallels between the French Revolution and the approaching Tribulation
period. The Great Tribulation will follow a calendar of 30-day months over a period of 42
months, or 1260 days (Rev.12:6). Mankind will revert to the 30-day month of the antediluvian
era as seen in the account of Noah's flood, where a 360-day year is indicated by the usage of a
uniform 30-day month. For instance, from the onset of the flood rains, until when the ark rested
on Mount Ararat, there are an even "150 days" (30 x 5) and this period is said to span from the
"seventeenth day of the second month" until "the seventeenth day of the seventh month." (Gen.
7:11; 8:3-4) Jesus said in Matt. 24:37, "But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming
of the Son of man be."

Likewise, during the French Revolution, the calendar was changed to 30-day months. The
Columbia Encyclopedia states concerning the French Revolutionary Calendar: "...the official
CALENDAR of France, Nov. 14, 1793-Dec. 31, 1805. Its introduction was decreed by the
Convention on Oct. 5, 1793, but it was computed from September 22, 1792, the autumnal
equinox and the day after the proclamation of the republic. Supposedly philosophical and
mathematical in its basis, it was divided into 12 months of 30 days..." (124:1052-3)

In the new calendar adopted at the time of the French Revolution, the first day of the year, the
1st of Vendemiaire (the grape-harvest month), was the date of the fall equinox in the Northern
Hemisphere. Since the year was divided into twelve months of 30 days each, "that left five or
Hemisphere. Since the year was divided into twelve months of 30 days each, "that left five or
six surplus days which were celebrations ending the year, in honor of virtue, genius, work,
opinion, prizes and revolution." ("Fall Equinox Celebrations")

Of added interest, September 22, which became the French New Year, is important in occult
numerology. Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince state in The Templar Revelation: Secret Guardians
of the True Identity of Christ: "There is a good reason for the emphasis on eleven and twenty-
twos: these numbers are both 'Master numbers' in the occult. They are particularly significant in
cabalistic studies." (242:203) Recall that the first Feast of Reason was held on November 11,
1793. Also, there are 11 bees on the Plantard family crest because, according to Kenneth Grant,
"eleven is the number of Magick and of the sephirah on the Tree of Life, called Daath, which is
the 'Gateway' to the backside of the Tree and to the Gods..." (571)

The drastic restructuring of society, government and the economy which occurred during the
French Revolution will be duplicated on a global scale during the Tribulation period, including
the redistribution of wealth and violent overthrow of Christianity. The Cambridge
Encyclopedia lists some of the 'reforms' of the Revolution:

"French Revolution (1789). A complex upheaval, profoundly affecting every aspect

of government and society, and therefore considered a significant turning point in
French history...with wide sweeping political, social, and economic measures
(1789-91). These included the abolition of feudal, aristocratic, and clerical
privileges, the Declaration of the Rights of Man, the establishment of a
constitutional government, the confiscation of church estates, and the
reorganization of church-state relations in the Civil Constitution of the Clergy
(1790). Thus the ancien regimé was effectively dismantled in the name of liberty,
equality and fraternity..." (218:439-440)

The book of Daniel is less euphemistic about the Antichrist's program of social reform.
Although many elements will be similar, the horrors of the French Revolution will pale in
comparison to the approaching nightmare.

Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall
be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it
down, and break it in pieces. And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings
that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the
first, and he shall subdue three kings. And he shall speak great words against the
most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change
times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the
dividing of time. Dan. 7:23-5

THE NOAHIDE LAWS

On January 17, 1951, the Orthodox Jewish Chabad-Lubavitch elected Rabbi Menachem Mendel
Schneerson to be the Lubavitch “Rebbe.” The “Rebbe,” who is regarded by the International
Lubavitch Movement as the “messiah,” was also recognized as a moral leader by many U.S.
presidents, starting with President Richard Nixon. According to the Chabad-Lubavitch, the
Rebbe enjoyed an especially close relationship with Ronald Reagan, who began the process of
giving legislative status to what the Lubavitchers call “the Seven Universal Laws”:

“The President was an early and enthusiastic adherent of the Rebbe’s

call to make all people aware of the Seven Universal Laws, based on
 call to make all people aware of the Seven Universal Laws, based on
the belief in a Supreme Being. The Rebbe’s call for a moment of
silence in the public schools, and his persistent belief that America
must export to the world faith-based moral values, were among the
themes that found a welcoming ear in President Reagan.”

According to The Encyclopedia of Judaism these Seven Universal Laws, also

called the Seven Noahide Laws, are as follows:

(1) Civil justice [the duty to establish a legal system];

(2) Prohibition of blasphemy [which includes the bearing of false
witness];
(3) The abandonment of idolatry;
(4) The prohibition of incest [including adultery and other sexual
offenses];
(5) The prohibition of murder;
(6) Also that of theft;
(7) The law against eating flesh [a limb] cut from a living animal [i.e.,
cruelty in any shape or form] (T.B. Sanh. 56A)

If we compare the Jewish Noahide Laws with the Masonic Noahide Laws as presented in
Albert Mackey's History of Freemasonry, they are nearly identical, revealing the Jewish source
of Freemasonry:

(1) To do justice
(2) Worship God
(3) Abstain from idolatry
(4) Preserve chastity
(5) Do not commit murder
(6) Do not steal
(7) Do not eat the blood - (112:409)

The Encyclopedia of Judaism identifies the source of the Noahide Laws as the Talmud Bavli,
the Babylonian Talmud, which is the most authoritative Talmud for Orthodox Judaism which
regards it as divinely inspired. The Talmud also delimits the penalty for disobedience of one
Noahide Law: “One additional element of greater severity is that violation of any one of the
seven laws subjects the Noahide to capital punishment by decapitation. (Sanhedrin Tract 57A)”

The Seven Noahide Laws do not apply to Jews, but only to Gentiles, and will establish a legal
framework for the Jewish elite to rule the Gentile world during the Tribulation period. The
B’nai Noach website put it this way: “A bat Noach [daughter of Noah] or b’nai Noach
[son/child of Noah] is a non-Jew (Noahide) who follows the Jewish laws specifically given by
God for them.”

According to the Jewish Encyclopedia, “due process” will not be followed in the prosecution of
Noachides: “The many formalities of procedure essential when the accused is an Israelite need
not be observed in the case of the Noachid. The latter may be convicted on the testimony of one
witness, even on that of relatives, but not on that of a woman. He need have had no warning
(‘hatra’ah’) from the witnesses; and a single judge may pass sentence on him (ib. 57a, b; ‘Yad,’
l.c. ix. 14).” [For more information on the Noahide Laws, see the Watch Unto Prayer report,
Under the Law.]
In 1982, in honor of the 80th birthday of Rebbe Menachem Schneerson, President Reagan, an
Honorary Scottish Rite Mason, issued a declaration, which Congress confirmed, that April 4
would become a National Day of Reflection on the Seven Noahide Laws as a moral code for
mankind.

“One shining example for people of all faiths of what education ought to be is
that provided by the Lubavitch movement, headed by Rabbi Menachem
Schneerson, a worldwide spiritual leader who will celebrate his 80th birthday on
April 4, 1982. The Lubavitcher Rebbe's work stands as a reminder that knowledge
is an unworthy goal unless it is accompanied by moral and spiritual wisdom and
understanding. He has provided a vivid example of the eternal validity of the Seven
Noahide Laws, a moral code for all of us regardless of religious faith. May he go
from strength to strength.
“In recognition of the Lubavitcher Rebbe's 80th birthday, the
Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States in
Congress assembled have issued House Joint Resolution 447 to set
aside April 4, 1982, as a "National Day of Reflection.
“NOW, THEREFORE, I, RONALD REAGAN, President of the United States of
America, do hereby proclaim April 4, 1982, as National Day Reflection.”

Nine years later, in 1991, the Seven Noahide Laws became Public Law 102-14 after a vote by
the U.S. Congress on the recommendation of Reagan’s successor, President George H. W.
Bush, a member of the Masonic Order of Skull & Bones ('48). Before a joint session of
Congress, President Bush honored Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, the now deceased “messiah”
of the Lubavitch Movement, by establishing the observance of Education Day, USA. This
national observance was intended “to return the world to the moral and ethical values contained
in the Seven Noahide Laws.” In reality, P.L.102-14 established the Talmud as of the supreme
Law of the Land.

Lest the reader think the current President of the United States, who claims to be a Christian,
would never pay tribute to the Lubavitchers’ false messiah like his father who issued the
Education Day proclamation, on March 26, 2002, President George W. Bush, also a member of
the Order of Skull & Bones ('68) held a White House reception in honor of the 100th birthday
of Rabbi Schneerson.

“Bush Meets Lubavitch Rabbis to Mark Rebbe’s 100th Birthday.”

“U.S. President George W. Bush hosted a delegation of 10 leading rabbis and

officials from the Lubavitch Hasidic movement at the White House yesterday.
The 90-minute meeting took place in the framework of events organized by
the movement to mark the 100th birthday of the late Rebbe Menachem
Mendel Schneerson... Bush added his signature to a document declaring the
late Rebbe’s birthday ‘The day of education and charity.’ [Avraham] Rabbi
Shem-Tov thanked the president for his support of Israel and presented him
with a Passover Haggadah.”

If decapitation is the penalty for violation of even a single Noahide Law, and beheading is the
preferred method of exterminating multitudes of believers during the Tribulation period, as it
was during the French Revolution, is it foreseeable that Christians might be accused of violating
one of these Talmudic laws?
We now turn to the proceedings of a meeting that took place at the Vatican just a few months
prior to the March 2002 White House reception in honor of the Lubavitcher Rebbe. This
Jewish-Christian dialogue, which was conducted by the Chief Rabbi of Rome, presaged the
very grim future that awaits the Tribulation saints:

“The Noachides & Rome’s Chief Rabbi, Riccardo Di Segni”

“In Rome, on January 17, 2002, in the Lecture hall of the Major Roman
Pontifical Seminary, a meeting was organized by the Diocese of Rome, part of
the Day of Jewish-Christian dialogue. Present on the Catholic side were
Cardinal Jorge Maria Mejia and Msgr. Rino Fisichella, and on the Jewish side,
Rabbi Riccardo Di Segni, who replaced Rabbi Elio Toaff as Chief Rabbi of
Rome...
“Rabbi Di Segni...explains [the seven precepts that all noachides must
respect]:
“These rules are: interdiction of all worship except monotheism, interdiction
on blasphemy, the obligation to form tribunals, the interdiction on homicide,
theft, adultery, and incest, and the interdiction on eating food torn from living
animals.
“...The Rabbi’s attention is completely fixed on the first precept, that of
monotheism: ‘As to the monotheist cult, apparently, it poses no doubt for the
major religions.’ Aren’t Judaism, Christianity and Islam defined, in post-
conciliar language that has become colloquial today, as ‘the three major
monotheist religions’? In fact, Di Segni sees no difficulty in defining Muslims
as strict and even circumcised monotheists. But, as to Christians, he has some
doubts....
christians: monotheists or idolators?
“This is where Di Segni—who is the author of the re-publication of the
Toledoths Jeshu, under the new title, Il Vangelo del Ghetto [The Gospel of the
Ghetto], with the Toledoths Jeshu being the most inflammatory Jewish
legends against Jesus (1)---‘speaks clearly’ to the prelates who heard him:
“At the point we have now reached, it is necessary to make a clarification
on Jewish theology, which, on the subject of monotheism and how it is lived
by Christianity, gives rise to a debate that is essentially a dilemma. The point
in question is in view of establishing whether Jesus’ divinity can be
compatible, for a non-Jew (because for a Jew it is absolutely not) with the
monotheistic concept.
“In other words: The Jew who would become a Christian, thus then
believing in the divinity of Jesus, would cease to be a monotheist in order to
become an idolater. Must one say the same thing of a non-Jew? Is believing
in Jesus’ divinity a sin of idolatry, a violation of the first precept of the
Noachide law? Rabbi Di Segni advises:
“‘As to be expected, in Jewish theology, the answer to this question is not
unanimous: some firmly deny it, others place certain conditions on it. The
consequence is that, according to the literal opinion, the Christian would not
be on the path of salvation’ since he is guilty of idolatry...
“Di Segni concludes: ‘If one must literally apply the Noachide system of
laws, it [the punishment of death] would be applied to all, so that the
Noachides might observe it. Likewise, the punishment of death would apply
to what treats forbidding the worship of strange gods,’ in view of
monotheism.” (559) (emphasis added)

We note that this meeting took place on January 17, the day on which Rabbi Menachem Mendel
Schneerson was elected as the Lubavitcher Rebbe in 1951. January 17 is also the date upon
which Convents of the Prieuré de Sion are traditionally held for the election of Grand Masters.
January is the month of the Roman god Janus, whom the Prieuré worships as Diana, which is
the reason the name ‘John’ or ‘Jean is the esoteric name of its Grand Masters. January 17 is also
the exact day in 681 when Sigisbert IV, the deceased King Dagobert's son, known as the 'Plant-
Ard', took refuge from the Carolingian assassins at Rennes-le-Chateau. The fact that January 17
was chosen to announce the impending enforcement of the Noahide Laws implicates the Prieuré
de Sion, which is the central command of all secret societies, as a Jewish organization.

The Chief Rabbi of Rome is putting the Roman Catholic hierarchy on notice that the Jewish
elite, the Prieuré de Sion, which even now controls the world from behind the scenes, will soon
have legal authority to prosecute and exterminate Christians for the crime of idolatry.
According to the Sodalitium article, not one of the Vatican prelates protested the agenda of the
Jews: “Today, the unthinkable has been realized. But the Cardinals present at the lecture
of...Rabbi Di Segni, keep silent.” Nor did the prelates question the Jewish power in a court of
law.

Since the 2002 meeting at the Vatican, Rabbi di Segni has been cultivating interfaith unity
among Roman Catholic, Muslim and Jewish leaders. It would appear from the news clip below
that the crypto-Jewish leadership of the Catholic Church, as well as of Islam, are working in
concert with the Jewish agents of the Prieuré de Sion to bring about the overthrow of
Christianity.

Ean Begg spoke of the Church of Rome as a nagging wife and the Cathar Church as a dark
mistress, hidden underground and the true source of Light. Begg also predicted that Virgo,
identified as Catharism, would win the war against the Great Whore of Babylon. We expect this
will occur at mid-Tribulation after the Roman Catholic pope has conducted another Papal
Inquisition in the revived Holy Roman Empire. Having exploited the Great Whore to the full,
the Prieuré de Sion will execute the Pope as a scapegoat Antichrist — identifying him as the
“man of lawlessness” per II Thess. 2:3 in revised versions of the Bible. The King James
Version correctly translates this phrase as “man of sin”, however, the revision is indicative of
disobedience to the Noahide Laws. One charge will be violation of the prohibition against
idolatry which, in the monotheistic belief system of Talmudic Judaism, and Islam, includes the
worship of Jesus Christ as God. See: Heeding Bible Prophecy: New Laws

A RESTORED SANHEDRIN

As Americans watch events unfold in the daily news which presage a new world order and one
world religion, it should be apparent that the United States is rapidly becoming a nation
governed by judicial fiat rather than separate but equal branches of government. The
establishment of a super-judiciary is not happenstance, but was planned well in advance to
condition the masses to accept a court system that is controlled and staffed by Judeo-
Freemasonry. For the Church Age—the Age of Grace—will soon come to a close with the
catching away of the Church, and the 70th week Daniel will commence God’s dealings with the
nation of Israel, which will once again come under the Mosaic Law, or rather the Talmudic
version of the Mosaic Law.

Daniel 7:25 says of the Antichrist: “And he shall speak great words against the most High, and
shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change times and laws: and they shall
be given into his hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.”

Since the Jews do not believe that Jesus fulfilled the criteria for the Jewish messiah, they are
awaiting a different messiah who will restore the Jewish nation to pre-70 A.D. conditions. The
criteria for a false messiah acceptable to the Jews are posted at Light to the Nations:

“According to the prophets of the Bible, amongst the most basic missions of the
messiah are:

to cause all the world to return to G-d and His teachings,

to restore the royal dynasty to the descendants of David,
to oversee the rebuilding of Jerusalem, including the Temple, in the event that it
has not yet been rebuilt;
to gather the Jewish people from all over the world and bring them home to the
Land of Israel,
and to reestablish the sanhedrin,
restore the sacrificial system,
as well as the Sabbatical year and Jubilee.”

Restoration of the Sanhedrin in Israel is, in fact, a work that is quietly in progress. The 71-
member body which conspired to crucify Jesus Christ two thousand years ago was reestablished
on October 13, 2004.
on October 13, 2004.

“A unique ceremony - probably only the second of its kind in the past 1,600
years - is taking place in Tiberias today: The launching of a Sanhedrin, the
highest Jewish-legal tribunal in the Land of Israel.
“The Sanhedrin, a religious assembly that convened in one of the Holy
Temple chambers in Jerusalem, comprised 71 sages and existed during the
Tannaitic period, from several decades before the Common Era until roughly
425 C.E. Details of today’s ceremony are still sketchy, but the organizers
announced their intention to convene 71 rabbis who have received special
rabbinic ordination as specified by Maimonides...
“One of the leaders of today’s attempt to revive the Sanhedrin is Rabbi
Yeshai Ba’avad of Beit El. He said that the 71 rabbis ‘from across the
spectrum received the special ordination, in accordance with Maimonides’
rulings, over the past several months.’ Rabbi Ba’avad explained that the
membership of the new body is not permanent: ‘What is much more crucial is
the establishment of this body. Those who are members of it today will not
necessarily be its members tomorrow. But the goal is to have one rabbinic
body in Jerusalem that will convene monthly and issue rulings on central
issues. This is the need of the generation and of the hour.’
“Rabbi Yisrael Ariel, who heads the Temple institute in Jerusalem, is one of
the participating rabbis. He told Arutz-7 today, ‘Whether this will be the
actual Sanhedrin that we await, is a question of time - just like the
establishment of the State; we rejoiced in it, but we are still awaiting
something much more ideal. It’s a process. Today’s ceremony is really the
continuation of the renewal of the Ordination process in Israel, which we
marked several months ago. Our Talmudic Sages describe the ten stages of
exile of the Sanhedrin from Jerusalem to other locations, until it ended in
Tiberias - and this is the place where it was foretold that it would be renewed,
and from here it will be relocated to Jerusalem.’” (Arutz Sheva News, 1066)

Ironically, October 13 is the date nearly 700 years ago (October 13, 1307) on which King
Phillip IV of France, with the complicity of Pope Clement V, ordered the arrests of the Knights
Templar in France prior to executing nearly the entire order. Weeks later the Pope issued a bull
to all Christian rulers in Western Europe ordering them to arrest all Knights of the Order of the
Temple resident in their countries.

A few months following the announcement of a restored Sanhedrin, the Arutz Sheva reported
that its members ascended the Temple Mount in anticipation of their accession to this most
powerful tribunal which will convene in the rebuilt Temple. The date of the rabbis’ ascent of the
Temple Mount???

Members of Reestablished Sanhedrin Ascend Temple Mount

12:17 Jan 20, ‘05 / 10 Shevat 5765

“In a dramatic but unpublicized move, members of the newly established

Sanhedrin ascended the Temple Mount, Judaism’s holiest site, this past
Monday. [January 17!] Close to 50 recently ordained s’muchim, members of
the Sanhedrin, lined up at the foot of the Temple Mount Monday morning.
[The word s’muchim comes from the same root as s’michah, rabbinic
ordination.] The men, many ascending the Temple Mount for the first time,
had immersed in mikvaot (ritual baths) that morning, and planned to ascend as
 had immersed in mikvaot (ritual baths) that morning, and planned to ascend as
a group.”

One member of the Sanhedrin was quoted as saying, “Those behind the revival of the
Sanhedrin stress that the revival of the legal body is not optional, but mandated by the
Torah. ‘We don’t have a choice,’ says Rabbi Richman. ‘It is a religious mandate for
us to establish a Sanhedrin.’” The rabbi cited no Scripture mandating revival of the
Sanhedrin, but rather quoted the Talmud:

“A tradition is recorded in the Talmud (Tractate Megillah 17b, Rashi) that the
Sanhedrin will be restored after a partial ingathering of the Jewish exiles, but
before Jerusalem is completely rebuilt and restored. Another Talmudic
tradition (Eruvin 43b; Maharatz Chajas ad loc; Rashash to Sanhedrin 13b)
states that Elijah the Prophet will present himself before a duly-ordained
Sanhedrin when he announces the coming of the Messiah. This indicates that
despite common misconceptions, a Sanhedrin is a pre-, not post-messianic
institution.”

Since the restored Sanhedrin is mandated by the Talmud, which denigrates Jesus Christ, the
messianic figure it heralds must be the Antichrist, in whose service the 71 rabbis will be
employed. “And he shall...think to change times and laws: and they shall be given into his
hand until a time and times and the dividing of time.” (Dan. 7:25 )

The Arutz article continued, “The rabbis behind the Sanhedrin’s reconstitution...see it as a
vessel that, once established, will reach the stature and authority that it once had.” A very recent
article, dated May 18, 2005, quoted Vendyl Jones on the subject of the authority of the
Sanhedrin.

“According to Jones, The Sharon government will soon be history and the
Sanhedrin (the Jewish High Court of 71 judges) will take its place and lead the
Jewish people. ‘The Sanhedrin was established October the 13th of last year. Now
all we have to do is have an election to elect counselors. The Sanhedrin is like a
Senate and the elected counselors are like a House of Representatives.’”
(“Kabbalist Blesses Jones: Now's the Time to Uncover Holy Lost Ark”)

Also published was a partial listing of issues the Sanhedrin would be deciding. Among the
weightier matters of governance were “restoring the Davidic monarchy” and “the establishment
of regional ‘small Sanhedrins’” (“Sanhedrin Rabbis Discuss Sublime, Procedural Issues”) The
reconstituted Sanhedrin, called for by the first Noahide Law as “the duty to establish a legal
system” to enforce “civil justice,” will function as a Senate, House of Representatives and
Supreme Court, all rolled into one. And by virtue of the fact that a Jewish Antichrist will rule
the world, the Sanhedrin will preside, not only over Israel, but over all mankind. Within its
judicial purview will be the interpretation of the Noahide Laws for the lower courts (‘small
Sanhedrins’) to administer to the Gentiles. (For a preview of the Sanhedrin in the United States,
see: “Death of the Phoenix: The New Reformation”)

“...and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God.” -
Rev.20:4

“Restoring the Davidic monarchy” presages the restoration of the Kingdom of Israel under the
rule of a descendant the Merovingian dynasty which claims to be of the lineage of David and
Solomon. See: “The Revelation of the Antichrist as the Second Coming of Solomon” on our
Solomon. See: “The Revelation of the Antichrist as the Second Coming of Solomon” on our
website. As the Sionist plan unfolds, it will be necessary to thoroughly discredit Jesus Christ as
the Messiah, and to transition Christendom to a new messiah—a descendant of Solomon.
Although the false teachers promoting the “Gospel in the Stars” presently claim that the signs of
the Zodiac prophesied the first and second comings of Jesus Christ, when our Lord Jesus Christ
has been vilified as a false Christ—in fact, labeled the Antichrist—the false “Gospel in the
Stars” will be seen to apply to the Antichrist, Thomas Plantard de Saint Clair, who will be
declared to be the “reincarnation of Solomon.”

For example, “Virgo holds in her right hand a branch...a reference to the seed of the woman”;
“Plantard” means branch and Solomon was not only the seed of David but of the Moabite
woman, Ruth. (II Sam. 7:12, Matt. 1:5,6) In the Egyptian Zodiac, the “Gemini” are “twin
gods,” brother and sister who mated in “sacred marriage.” Solomon wed the “black virgin”
whom he called “my sister, my spouse” in the Song of Solomon (1:5, 4:9) and Thomas Plantard
de Saint Clair and his twin sister, Irmine, will lead mankind in a sacred marriage ritual. “Libra”
represents the “Scales of Justice” and Solomon was famous for his justice in judgment (1 Kings
3:9, 23); likewise, Thomas Plantard de Saint Clair will be the High Priest who will preside over
the Great Sanhedrin in Israel which will govern the world. “Scorpio” is the agent of divine
vengeance; Solomon took swift vengeance on his enemies to establish his kingdom (I Kings 2),
as will the Antichrist. “Leo” represents the Lion of the “Tribe of Judah” who will destroy the
wicked at his second coming; in Morals and Dogma, Albert Pike bestowed upon Solomon the
title of the “Lion of the Tribe of Judah.” (p. 210) The Antichrist, Thomas Plantard de Saint
Clair, will claim to be of the Tribe of Judah through Solomon and will destroy his enemies
worldwide to establish his global kingdom.

GNOSTIC DUALISM

Gnosticism—a synthesis of Jewish occultism and Christianity—was a deadly heresy that originated
in Alexandria, Egypt and posed a serious threat to the early Christian Church. During the Middle
Ages, the Inquisition was directed largely at Gnostic sects such as the Templars, Cathars,
Albigenses, Bogomils and the Donatists. Although these groups were eradicated by the Church of
Rome, the secret doctrine which they represented was carried forward by a myriad of secret
societies spawned by the Invisible College of the Order of the Rosy Cross during the 17th century
societies spawned by the Invisible College of the Order of the Rosy Cross during the 17th century
Rosicrucian Enlightenment.

Today, demons posing as reincarnated Cathars are insisting that their heresies are the true doctrines
of Christianity. Dr. Arthur Guirdham, author of The Great Heresy, claims to be in contact with
people living today who died in the Albigensian Crusade. According to The Encyclopedia of New
Age Beliefs, "The spirits Dr. Guirdham contacts claim to be people who lived as Cathars in the
thirteenth century, who now demand he revive their beliefs as true Christianity." (207:87)
According to Dr. Guirdham, one of these beliefs was denial that Jesus came in the flesh:

"...the Templars had similar ideas on the Incarnation those of the Cathars. The latter
could not accept the orthodox Christian interpretation. To them the Son of God could
not be imprisoned, and could not die, in matter. The Cathar detestation of the
crucifixion was notorious. The Templars' contempt for the Cross was merely another
version of it." (1003:91)

The Cathar belief was a revival, or rather a continuation, of the Valentinian heresy which denied
that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Irenaeus of Lyons (120-202 A.D.) dealt extensively with the
errors of Valentinus in his treatise, Against Heresies, an account and refutation of the multiform
Gnostic heresies which prevailed in the latter half of the second century Specifically, Irenaeus
addressed the Valentinians' false doctrine which denied the Incarnation of Jesus Christ: "...they
deny that He assumed anything material [into His nature], since indeed matter is incapable of
salvation." (1006)

This anti-Christian doctrine is based on the dualistic belief that in the Universe there are two equal
forces which oppose each other in a continual conflict, and that the outcome of this conflict is
unknown until the very end. Dualists believe that there was a good God who created the Universe,
however, an evil Demiurge, an emanation of the true God, created the physical Earth, which is
inherently evil. Whilst dualistic Gnostics believe that matter is evil and Spirit is good, monistic
Gnostics regard matter not as evil, but as an illusion. To them, the material realm does not really
exist, but is a figment of the human psyche. Both dualistic and monistic groups believe that the
destiny of the spiritual man is to be released from entrapment in the body (matter) into the Spirit
realm. Since matter is evil and the body is material (or non-existent) the pathway to release from
the prison of matter, or the illusion of a material realm, is through strict asceticism. Some gnostic
sects even teach that moral conduct is irrelevant, since the body is an illusion or, if they believe in
matter, that the flesh will eventually be destroyed.

Gnostics maintain that primitive man was a microcosm of the universe; however, mankind strayed
far from his primitive spiritual state when he descended into matter. According to this heresy, as
articulated by H.P. Blavatsky in Isis Unveiled, the fall of man was not disobedience to God's
command, but his descent into matter.

"The first races of men were spiritual, and their protoplastic bodies were not composed
of the gross and material substances of which we see them composed now-a-day. The
first men were created with all the faculties of the Deity, and powers far transcending
those of the angelic host; for they were the direct emanations of Adam Kadmon, the
primitive man, the Macrocosm; while the present humanity is several degrees removed
even from the earthly Adam, who was the Microcosm, or 'the little world'." (195:276)
(Vol. II)

Because they perceive the physical realm to be evil, the Gnostics are collectively involved in a
program to transform the natural condition of mankind. Gnostic salvation is not merely individual
program to transform the natural condition of mankind. Gnostic salvation is not merely individual
redemption of each human soul; it is a cosmic process. It is the return of all things to what they
were before the fall of Adam-Kadmon into matter. Irenaeus wrote, "They further hold that the
consummation of all things will take place when all that is spiritual has been formed and perfected
by Gnosis (knowledge); and by this they mean spiritual men who have attained to the perfect
knowledge of God, and been initiated into these mysteries by Achamoth [the Æon Wisdom-Sophia
or female principle]. And they represent themselves to be these persons." (1006)

Gnostics claim that mankind was on the path of salvation, courtesy of the Nephilim, until the
Atlantis cataclysm. Peter Dawkins, a recognized authority on the Rosicrucian philosophies and
Ancient Wisdom teachings, wrote in his book Arcadia: The Ancient Egyptian Mysteries, that
ancient Egypt was an alchemical experiment to reproduce the mystical culture of Atlantis. There
the Hermetic science of alchemy was given by the gods of Atlantis to recover the lost arts and
sciences of the drowned pre-flood civilization. Exoterically, alchemy consists of laboratory
experiments to transform base metals into gold; esoterically, however, the alchemist aspires to
discover the elixir of life that will transform man from his mortal condition to the state of
immortality, signified by gold because of its indestructibility. Dawkins explains that the true
alchemy—the transmutation of the material state to the perfect spiritual state—is accomplished
through the process of initiation:

"Just as nature, or a gardener, has to turn the earth into a rich dark compost in order
that any seed planted therein will grow into a strong and healthy plant, so it is that the
natural soul of man needs to prepare the soil of his own nature until it too becomes a
rich compost in which the seed of his spiritual self may become well bedded, and
from which it may grow strongly and healthily through the stages of initiation to reach
its ultimate perfection. This rich compost is known as the Prima Materia or 'First
Matter' - the starting point of all initiation. The Egyptian word for it was Kemit ('the
black earth'), and this is one of the names they gave to their country. The Greeks knew
this name as Khemia, from which we derive our word 'chemistry' and, more
particularly, 'alchemistry' - the chemistry of the 'all' or whole being. The Hermetic
science is founded upon this Kemit. Alchemy is the process of initiation that leads the
natural soul from the state of Kemit to a condition in which it is transmuted into the
'golden' state of the spiritual soul." (889:36)

According to Blavatsky, the fall of the heavenly Adam-Kadmon, the angelic androgyne,
into dense matter and its division into sexes resulted in the transformation of the world
from a formerly spiritual and ethereal state into its present material condition. This
cataclysmic fall of the first Adam into matter was reflected in the heavens by a change in
the sign Virgo-Scorpio; "the pure Virgo is separated, and falling 'into generation,' or the
downward cycle, becomes Scorpio emblem of sin and matter." (209:502ff). Scorpio,
however, states Fred Gettings in The Secret Zodiac, still retains a dual image—the eagle
and scorpion—a duality which represents the two natures of man:

"The eagle of St John is the eagle of Scorpio, which sign (alone of all the twelve) has
two images, the eagle the symbol of the redeemed and spiritualized Scorpionic nature,
the scorpion its fallen, unredeemed and earth-bound nature." (911:43)

Apparently because of its primordial role as the consort of Virgo, the Great Mother Goddess and
archetype before Isis, the astrological sign of Scorpio will preside over the restoration of mankind
to its previous spiritual state. Occult sources seem to agree on this, that a 'transformation' of the
whole wide world—a release from entrapment in matter—will occur during the sign of Scorpio:
 "It is through the gateway of Scorpio, aided by the Lords of Form, that humanity will
come to its final conclusion in the Old Earth and move through the door of the temple
into the Grand Way of the New Earth Star. When the earth is under the Zodiacal
influence of Scorpio the Zodiacal threshold which emanates through that sign into the
earth triggers a series of celestial programs of return, facilitating the earth in 'dropping
the frame' as the ancients used to say. This allows the earth to move into a new and
more etherealized formation. In time, this will result in the earth's ascension into the
New Earth Star." (914)

The earth is utterly broken down, the earth is clean dissolved, the earth is
moved exceedingly. The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and
shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be
heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again. - Is. 24:19-20

Thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged,
and that Thou shouldest...destroy them which destroy the earth. -
Rev.11:18

TRIBE OF DAN: EAGLE OR SCORPION?

The emblem of the tribe of Dan was the serpent, in fulfillment of Jacob's prophecy in Genesis
49:17: "Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that
his rider shall fall backward." However, the prince of the tribe of Dan replaced the serpent with
an eagle.

"To Dan was given the symbol of Scorpio, which, in the ancient Egyptian zodiac
was a snake. However, when the time came to hoist the symbol of the snake,
Ahiezer refused and chose instead the symbol of an eagle. According to
Unger's Bible Dictionary:

'Dan's position in the journey was on the north of the Tabernacle, with
Asher and Naphtali. The standard of the tribe was of white and red,
and the crest upon it, an eagle, the great foe to serpents, which had
been chosen by the leader instead of a serpent, because Jacob had
compared Dan to a serpent. Ahiezer substituted the eagle, the
destroyer of serpents, as he shrank from carrying an adder upon his
flag. It may prove worthwhile to consider the possible connection to
the tribe of Dan whenever an eagle is used as the symbol of
subsequent leaders or nations.' " (127:117)

In the 12th century, a Jewish writer in Spain whose works influenced the Kabbalah, named
Antares, the brightest star in Scorpio, "Kesil" or "Akrabh" the crowned serpent. By this
designation, Aben Ezra indicated that Jews understood the serpent to be the actual emblem of
Dan.

"Sir William Drummond asserted that in the zodiac which the patriarch Abraham
knew [Scorpio] was an eagle...
"Aben Ezra identified Scorpio or Antares, with the Kesil; although that people
generally considered these stars as a Scorpion, their Akrabh, and, it is claimed,
inscribed it on the banners of Dan as the emblem of the tribe whose founder was 'a
serpent by the way.' When thus shown it was a crowned snake or Basilisk." (927:362)
 serpent by the way.' When thus shown it was a crowned snake or Basilisk." (927:362)

Yair Davidy of Brit-Am Israel, a British-Israelite organization, associates the tribe of Dan with
the British commonwealth nations, in particular the United States. Based on Genesis 49:16, Dan
shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel, Davidy deduces that Danites dominate the
legal profession in the U.S. This is actually meant as a commendation of the Tribe of Dan!

“The name DAN means 'judge' in Hebrew. Many lawyers and judges in the USA
are of Irish descent of a particular type as is much of the police force...
Descendants of Dan today appear to be concentrated in Ireland, Britain, the USA,
and especially Denmark.” (264)

The eagle on the Great Seal of the U.S. dollar, which is believed to represent Scorpio, is an
indication that this sign will inaugurate the Judeo-Masonic New World Order:

"The final Great Seal [of the

United States] is also full of
arcane symbolism.
"The bald eagle is said to
represent Scorpio, who is
associated with death and
rebirth...
"In addition the Great Seal
contains the words Novus Ordo
Seclorum, meaning 'the new order
of the ages'. This phrase too is
taken from Virgil, and in modern
times the New World Order has
ominous meanings, although its
Masonic meaning was a
breakaway from the religious
intolerance of Europe." (816:172)

It seems that the Great Seal of the United States, as originally proposed, displayed a rising
Phoenix instead of an Eagle. The design that was at length accepted by the Congress dispensed
with the Phoenix in preference for an Eagle that was rising. David Ovason wrote of this historic
but relatively unknown event in The Secret Architecture of the Nation's Capitol:

"...if one is going to study the arcane background to the formation of the United
States, one should start with the eagle, which is also the heraldic bird on the
obverse of the Seal of the United States of America. This fearsome-looking bird, so
widely used in the symbolism of the States, is what esotericists have called an
'open mystery': by contrast the eagle as used by the early Masons, and by the
Rosicrucians and alchemists before them, was an 'occult blind'. This means that it
was designed to carry an open symbolism acceptable to the uninitiated, yet, at the
same time, to hide a more profound meaning accessible only to those familiar with
arcane symbolism.
"The eagle originally proposed for the Seal of the United States was not an
American (or bald-headed) eagle, but was crested. Furthermore, from descriptions
and drawings left by William Barton, we see that at one time he had proposed not
 and drawings left by William Barton, we see that at one time he had proposed not
only an eagle, but also a phoenix, which later gave rise to many misunderstandings
in both Masonic and arcane literature. When, in 1782, Charles Thompson was
invited by Congress to revise the design, he insisted that it be an American eagle,
not displayed, but rising. The phoenix was forgotten, as were many other elements
in William Barton's design. Thompson also introduced the bundle of arrows (in the
sinister talon) and an olive branch (in the dexter)."(512:218-19)

William Barton's first and second designs for the Great Seal, discreetly rejected by Congress,
displayed a Phoenix in a nest of Flames.

What is the significance of the Phoenix in Barton's design? "Carl Jung points out that the
alchemists often spoke of 'killing with the sword'. This was the sword used to separate the
elements, thus bringing back the original state of 'chaos' in order that a newer and more perfect
body may be created. This is similar to the image of the Phoenix which allows itself to be
destroyed by fire and then arises anew out of its own ashes." (258:82)

This mythical bird rising from a nest of flames is the symbol of Scorpio and the process of
transformation which can only be undertaken under this astrological sign. The Phoenix is a symbol
of the occultist's consuming passion for release from the bondage of matter and reunion with the
universe, whence he believes he originated and believes to be a living and divine organism.

"The Lemurian symbol for Scorpio was a winged creature, part bird and part
serpent, lifting Phoenix-like from a nest of flames. This was the Gheza, the mythic
being involved both in the illusion of form and in the process of transformation
simultaneously. This creature was to represent the intrinsic role of matter when thrust
into the realm of form...
"The cry of Scorpio to the ancients was 'feed me, for I feed the flame!' It was a sign
representing the insatiable hunger of the soul to absolve the bonds of form and
embrace the eternal formless self; to merge with the universe in the bliss of divine
reunion. It is through the gateway of Scorpio, aided by the Lords of Form, that
humanity will come to its final conclusion in the Old Earth and move through the door
of the temple into the Grand Way of the New Earth Star. When the earth is under the
Zodiacal influence of Scorpio the Zodiacal threshold which emanates through that sign
into the earth triggers a series of celestial programs of return, facilitating the earth in
'dropping the frame' as the ancients used to say. This allows the earth to move into a
new and more etherealized formation. In time, this will result in the earth's ascension
into the New Earth Star." ( 914)
A Phoenix in a nest of flames on the Great Seal of the U.S. would have alerted God-fearing
Americans to the Judeo-Masonic character of their government and its anti-Christian agenda—the
planned destruction, not only of the United States, but also of the world, in order to make way for
the Judeo-Masonic Novus Ordo Seclorum (New World Order). Gnostic occultists know that the
transition into their New World Order will not be a smooth process; to the contrary, such a drastic
reversal of the social order requires the planned destabilization and destruction of established
structures. Controlled conflicts and local wars must escalate into regional wars until World War III
erupts, producing global chaos and destruction of the old order.

"...[T]he alchemist held [Scorpio] in high regard, for only when the sun was in this
sign could the transmutation of iron into gold be performed. Astrologers, on the other
hand, although they considered it a fruitful sign, 'active and 'eminent', knew it as the
accursed constellation, the baleful source of war and discord, the birthplace of the
planet Mars..." (927:363)

According to Brian Williams' A Guide to the Renaissance Tarot, "Scorpio is also known as the
Sparrowhawk or Phoenix." (983) The Dictionary of Symbolism states, "Traditionally Scorpio has
been associated with male sexuality, destruction, the occult, the mystical, illumination
and...healing and resurrection." ( 100:301) In Greek mythology, the Scorpion was the agent of
divine vengeance.

"In ancient Greek tradition, the Scorpion avenged Artemis (the Roman Diana), the
eternally youthful virgin huntress, archetypal man-hater. Offended when Orion offered
violence to her, the goddess had a scorpion sting him in the heel. For his services, the
scorpion was turned into a constellation. Orion was also sent up to Heaven and became
a constellation, too. This resulted in the saying that 'Orion is constantly running away
from the Scorpion'... The Scorpion in this context was regarded as the instrument of
divine vengeance." - 66:836

To this day, the scorpion is said to be the archenemy of the constellation Orion for whenever
Scorpio rises in the East, Orion sets in the West: "...Orion was placed among the stars in such a
way that when Scorpio rises, Orion sets." (570:188) Orion, the Hunter is the heavenly
representation of the earthly Nimrod, "a mighty hunter before the Lord"—whose spiritual
deception of the post-flood civilization was frustrated by God, who is consequently vilified as
Scorpio. (Gen. 11:1-9) This interpretation of Scorpio is presented by Alexander Hislop in The Two
Babylons, which also identifies the constellation Orion and Babylonian god, Nimrod, as the
Egyptian god, Osiris:

"The name of a scorpion in Chaldee is Akrab; but Ak-rab, thus divided, signifies 'THE
GREAT OPPRESSOR,' and this is the hidden meaning of the Scorpion as represented
in the Zodiac. That sign typifies him who cut off the Babylonian god, and suppressed
the system he set up. It was while the sun was in Scorpio that Osiris in Egypt
'disappeared' (WILKINSON), and great lamentations were made for his disappearance.
Another subject was mixed up with the death of the Egyptian god; but it is specially to
be noticed that, as it was in consequence of a conflict with a scorpion that Orion was
'added to the stars,' so it was when the scorpion was in the ascendant that Osiris
'disappeared'." (156:57)

The sign of Scorpio, which epitomizes the evil agency of Orion/Nimrod's demise, has persisted
in confounding the Babylonian enterprise—the Tower of Babel—in much the same way that
Scorpio bites Orion. This adversarial state of affairs characterizes any number of fabled
conflicts between heroes and various reptilian beasts in ancient and classical mythology.
 conflicts between heroes and various reptilian beasts in ancient and classical mythology.
Whatever opposes the worship of Lucifer may expect to be portrayed as a serpent, dragon,
scorpion, etc. On another level, the scorpion represents human nature and the religious systems
that stand in the way of its spiritual transformation via gnosis:

"Liz Greene, in her book, The Astrology of Fate...equates Scorpio with the
archetypical theme of the hero facing the dragon. Examples of this theme include the
stories of Heracles battling the Hydra, Siegfried and the dragon Fafnir, and even
Perseus and the Gorgon Medusa. The reptilian dragon represents instinctual side of
human nature in its terrifying and destructive power." (984)

We note here the significance of the fact that the tribe of Dan changed its God-given emblem from
the serpent to the eagle. "Ahiezer substituted the eagle, the destroyer of serpents, as he shrank from
carrying an adder upon his flag." (127:117) Instead of acknowledging Jacob's prophetic word that
Dan would fulfill the role of a serpent, the dragon identified as Satan in Rev. 12:9, this rebellious
tribe would posture as the hero who slays the scorpion/dragon!

There is abundant evidence that the Merovingians descended from the Tribe of Dan, which has,
indeed, has risen to a position of global power from which Dan shall sit in judgment. We refer to
reader to other reports this website dealing with the Tribe of Dan, The Merovingians, and the
Noahide Laws.

In Bloodline of the Holy Grail, the creed of the Druids—"Truth against the
world"— is illustrated as a winged woman holding a coiled serpent and
standing on what appears to be a winged serpent or dragon:

"Truth Against the World by Peter Robson. The day of

fulfillment when the dragon is slain and the Phoenix shall rise.
(Y Gwir Yn Erbyn Byd was the war cry of Queen Boudicca).
Wearing the black garb of the esoteric church, the triumphant
woman carries the therapeutic serpent of wisdom and healing."
(29) (Fig.16)

The winged woman in Robson's portrait appears to represent Queen

Boudicca, a Celtic warrior queen who resisted the Roman armies in 60 A.D.
However, as Gardner stresses, the woman holds a coiled serpent—"the
therapeutic serpent of wisdom and healing"—which evokes images of the
Kundalini phenomenon.

The name kundalinî means "she who is coiled" and is believed to be the "serpent of life, fire, and
wisdom." Also called serpent power and Goddess energy, Kundalini is said to lie dormant in the
uninitiated but, when awakened, releases an infinite storehouse of divine energy and
consciousness. This so-called agency of spiritual transformation and enlightenment is liberated
through programs such as Tantra-Yoga. Sadomasochistic exercises prepare the initiate for the
harrowing ordeal of kundalini, an experience that is compared to death.

"In keeping with this typically Tantric symbolism, the Gheranda-Samhitâ (3.45)
specifies that the yogin engaged in this esoteric practice should besmear his body with
ashes, which is an outward sign of his internal renunciation of all worldly things and
desires. The adept who seeks to arouse the kundalinî must be prepared to die, because
this process quite literally anticipates the death process. As the serpent power rises
along the central passage, the yogin's microcosm is gradually dissolved." (987)
 along the central passage, the yogin's microcosm is gradually dissolved." (987)

The triumphant woman who holds the therapeutic serpent of wisdom and healing is a figure
similar to the constellation which is above Scorpio —Ophiuchus, the Serpent Holder, also called
Serpentarius. In the astrological traditions, Ophiuchus tramples on Scorpio and, having received
the elixir of life from the Serpent, restores Orion to life.

OPHIUCHUS, THE SERPENT HOLDER

"Here, Serpens, the serpent, is seen struggling vainly in the powerful

grasp of the man who is named O-phi-u-chus. In Latin he is called
Serpentarius. He is at one and the same moment shown to be seizing
the serpent with his two hands, and treading on the very heart of the
scorpion, marked by the deep red star Antares (wounding)." (Bullinger)

"Coming out of the Arabic into the Greek, the name of Ophiuchus
is Aesculapius. Aesculapius was one of the favorites of the Greek
gods, a son of Apollo. Homer describes Aesculapius with all of the
attributes of a man. He was a god-man. If you read of the death of
Socrates, as described by Plato, you will notice the last request
Socrates makes is to ask Crito, his friend, to repay a cock he owes to
Aesculapius. Here was a god who was much on the mind of the great
Socrates, even at the moment of his death.
"According to Greek mythology, he was the healer; he cured the
sick. He was also reported to bring the dead back to life by means of
blood taken from the side of the goddess of justice. He is called the
'Physician,' 'The Desired One,' 'The Health-Giver,' the 'Universal
Remedy.' Finally, he suffered death from the lightnings of Heaven, but
was raised from death to glory through the influence of his father,
Apollo." (Kennedy)
 The constellation Scorpio lies just beneath the foot of Ophiuchus, a man who holds a serpent.
The name Ophiuchus is derived from the Greek words ophis (serpent) and cheiro-o (to handle) -
hence, the Serpent Holder. Concerning the Hand of Ophiuchus , Richard Allen wrote ominously
in his book, Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning: "ε was the Euphratean Nitax-bat, the Man
of Death. Coincidentally, 'in modern astrology, which contained some singular survivals, the
Hand of Ophiuchus is said to be a star 'of evil influence'." (927:302)

In Greek mythology, Ophiuchus is associated with Aesculapius, the son of the god Apollo and
a mortal woman called Coronis. After Coronis died in childbirth, Aesculapius was reared by
Chiron, the Centaur who taught him the art of healing. Aesculapius, supposedly the first doctor
of medicine, not only learned to heal, but he also developed the ability to restore the dead to
life. The pagan myth of Aesculapius is one of many which claim that the Hermetic arts and
sciences were taught to men by the ancient gods.

"[Ophiuchus] is said to be Asclepius, whom Zeus placed among the stars to oblige
Apollo. For Asclepius used his healing art to raise the dead... Ophiuchus was
usually identified with Asclepius by both Greek and Roman authors... According to
tradition, Asclepius was the son of Apollo and Coronis and was reared by Chiron,
who instructed him in the art of healing."(570:141)

The famed Greek physician, Hippocrates, belonged to a family which claimed descent from
Aesculapius. The original Hippocratic oath opened with an invocation of four Greek divinities: “I
swear by Apollo the physician, by Asclepius, Hygeia, and Panacea, and I take to witness all the
gods, all the goddesses, to keep according to my ability and my judgment the following
oath.” Hygeia and Panacea were the daughters of Aesculapius; their names live on today in
medical terminology as hygiene and panacea, which once meant magical potion. Occultists
believe that Ophiuchus received the secret elixir of restoring life to the dead from a serpent. Pagan
cults such as the Ophites worship this serpent as the giver of eternal life:

"The biblical school made [Serpens] the seducer of Eve, while in our day imaginative
observers find another heavenly Cross in the stars of the head, one that belongs to
Saint Andrew or Saint Patrick. Serpens shared with Ophiuchus the Euphratean title of
Nutsirda, the Image of the Serpent; and is supposed to have been one of the
representatives of divinity to the Ophites the Hivites of Old Testament times."
(927:375)

Having received the elixir of life from Serpens, Ophiuchus, the Serpent-Holder, is said to restore
the constellation Orion to life after he sets in the west, Orion having previously been wounded by
Scorpio:

"Scorpius stung Orion and he fell mortally wounded. This act is represented in the sky
movement of these two constellations. When Orion, mortally wounded, sets in the
west, the Scorpion is just rising in the east, gloating over the success of his mission.
Scorpius' triumph does not last long, however, for the next evening - as Scorpius sets
in the west - Ophiuchus stands above Scorpius and tramples him to death. Ophiuchus
then gives Orion a sip of his elixir and restores Orion to life. Thus Orion is seen to rise
in the east again as both Ophiuchus and Scorpius descend in the west." (833)
(Ophiuchus)

The staff of Aesculapius, around which a serpent is coiled, is today the symbol of the American
Medical Association and the World Health Organization. This symbol is also suggestive of the
Serpent who wrapped himself around the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden!
 Serpent who wrapped himself around the Tree of Knowledge in the Garden of Eden!

The Staff of Aesculapius evolved into the Caduceus, which was a

magic healing wand with twin serpents entwined around a phallic
rod. This wand belonged to Hermes, who is the Greek analogue
of the Egyptian god, Thoth, founder of alchemy and sacred
geometry.

"A magic wand was the attribute of Apollo's son,

Asclepios (Aesculapius) the god of healing; and,
according to [Albert] Carnoy, his name means 'he
who holds the magic wand.' The caduceus, the
symbol of healing, is no more than a magic wand
round which a pair of serpents are entwined, 'an echo
of the very ancient tree-and-Earth cults in the
Aegean area, the latter closely connected with
serpent-worship'.... Among the virtues possessed by
[Hermes'] wonderful wand was the power to put
humans to sleep and to waken them. 'The wand is so STAFF OF THE CADUCEUS
closely linked to the god [Hermes]...that this herald's AESCULAPIUS
wand became the badge of the heroes and
ambassadors who claimed the god's protection.'" -
66:1077

Once again we find the motif of twins that is a recurring theme in the secret doctrine. The twin
serpents of the caduceus symbolize the kundalini force that travels along the spinal column and
facilitates out of body experiences. Interestingly, the twin serpents also had the power to effect sex
changes:

"The mythical origin of his magic twin serpent caduceus is described in the story
of Tiresias. Poulenc, in 'Les Mamelles de Tiresias' (The Breasts of Tiresias) tells
how Tiresias--the seer who was so unhelpful to Oepidus [sic] and Family--found
two snakes copulating, and to separate them stuck his staff between them.
Immediately he was turned into a woman, and remained so for seven years, until he
was able to repeat his action, and change back to male. The transformative power
in this story, strong enough to completely reverse even physical polarities of male
and female, comes from the union of the two serpents, passed on by the wand.
Tiresias' staff, complete with serpents, was later passed on to Hermes...
"Occult Hermetic Connection: An occult description of the Caduceus of
Hermes (Mercury) is that the serpents may represent positive and negative
kundalini as it moves through the chakras and around the spine (the staff) to the
head where it communicates with MIND by intellection, the domain of Mercury
[wings].
"Caduceus Power Wand: This wand is sold at occult, new age & witchcraft
stores such as Abaxion with descriptions such as 'It's central phallic rod represents
the potentiality of the masculine, and is intimately surrounded by the writhing,
woven shakti energies of two coupling serpents. The rod also represents the spine
[sushumna] while the serpents conduct spiritual currents [pranas] along the ida and
pingala channels in a double helix pattern from the chakra at the base of the spine
up to the pineal gland'.
"According to occultists, there are three principal nadis (Sanskrit for channel) in
the human body. The sushumna (the spinal column through which the life-forces
 the human body. The sushumna (the spinal column through which the life-forces
flow), by which means we enter and leave the body, the Ida (refreshment and
stimulation of spirit), which is associated with the higher mind or manas and the
Pingala, (reddish-brown), associated with kama or the force of desire. (G. de
Purucker 'Man in Evolution' ch. 15 & 16; and 'Fountain-Source of Occultism', pp.
458-63)." (1005)

Quetzalcoatl was the supreme deity of the Mayas and

Aztecs and among the numerous twin gods in the
pantheons of dualistic mythologies. As the Feathered
Serpent-God of ancient Mexico and most famous of
the gods of the New World, Quetzalcoatl reigned over
a Golden Age of peace and abundance. As a celibate
demi-god, he invented the Mayan and Aztec calendar
and bequeathed the secret doctrine to his priests, who
were also celibate. Quetzalcoatl was driven away on a
serpent boat by his evil twin, Tezcatlipoca (the black
twin), but is expected to return from the East (where he
spread his knowledge of science and the arts) to
reclaim his power among the Mesoamerican people.
The name Quetzalcoatl means 'precious twin' as well as
'feathered serpent'. Based on the prevalence of twin Quetzalcoatl / Viracocha
serpent-gods in ancient cultures, it is possible that the
twin snakes of the caduceus may also represent the
concept of divine twins.

"Another very significant aspect of

[Jeremy] Narby's research is his
identification of a common feature
throughout the shamanistic cultures (and
ancient myths): divine twins as the
bringers of wisdom, 'the theme of double
beings of celestial origin and creators of
life'. He points out,...quoting from Claude
Levi Strauss, that the Aztec word coatl, as
in the name Quetzalcoatl, means both
'snake' and 'twin'. (Quetzalcoatl can be
interpreted as either 'feathered serpent' or
'magnificent twin'.). (268:353)

Quetzalcoatl's name among the Incas was Viracocha, another dualistic deity, the sun and the
moon god combined.

"There is a pre-Incan legend that speaks of Viracocha who is depicted in many

forms. There is a duality about this deity, which is not unlike gods in other
civilizations - the good god and the warrior side to his personality. We see him as
he enlightened god in the white robes who brings knowledge and the warrior god
with staves in his hands and a sun symbol around his head, not unlike the sun god
Ra in ancient Egypt. As we third dimension is a duality - all things have good and
evil characteristics - including the gods of all myths. Viracocha - as duality is
depicted as the sun god of creation [wearing a sun crown] and the moon god.
 "Viracocha, as the feathered serpent god, is one of the great mysteries of ancient
American cultures. He was called Kukulkan by the Mayas, Quetzalcoatl by the
Aztecs, Viracocha by the Incas, Gucumatz in central America, Votan in Palenque
and Zamna in Izamal." (1012)

There is also an association between Viracocha and Osiris who, it is claimed, ruled the world
during the First Time: "Several authors have speculated upon the mythological connection
between the Egyptian god Osiris, and the god Viracocha, of the people of Central Andes. Osiris
is believed to have traveled around the globe bringing civilization to many nations... He was
tall, of pale complexion, bearded and dressed in a long white robe." (607:286)

In his book, From Atlantis to the Sphinx, Colin Wilson observed other analogous deities: "The
stories of the fish-god Oannes sound curiously like those of Viracocha and Kon-Tiki
[Polynesian sun god]." (1014:149) Ralph Woodrow stated in Babylon Mystery Religion that
Oannes was later venerated as John the Baptist, the Templars' messiah instead of Jesus. This
would explain why the esoteric name of Grand Masters of the Prieuré de Sion has historically
been John/Jean:

"Besides the fire ceremony that was observed on June 24, this day was also
known among those heathen tribes as the festival of water. And had not John the
Baptist been especially known as the one that baptized with WATER? And so this
slight similarity helped disguise the continuation of the pagan day, now renamed.
"But the real significance that connected this day with water was that it was
sacred to OANNES, the ancient fishgod! Stemming from another anicent
Babylonian fable, as we mentioned earlier, Nimrod was supposed to have
reappeared in the 'Mysteries' after he was slain as OANNES. In an article on
Nimrod, Fausett says: 'Oannes the fishgod, Babylon's Civilizer, rose out of the red
sea,'... And so we see how Nimrod, water, and the fish-god Oannes were all
connected. Now in the Latin language...John was called Joannes. Notice how
similar Joannes is to Oannes! And so...another pagan day was smoothly
adopted...disguised with the name of John the Baptist." 494:167

'Jean' is the French variant of 'John' and 'Janus' as Ean Begg states in The Cult of the Black
Virgin: "Janus is one of the most important Roman gods. His two faces illustrate not only his
role as deity of beginnings, looking to past and future, but his essential duality as the original
bisexual chaos and the form which emerged from it. Diana/Jana and Saturn are especially
associated with him. He may have been Gallicized into Jean (John), one of the companions to
the Black Virgin." (272:7)

Moreover, Janus was represented as a serpent: "Macrobius quotes Cicero (De Natura Deorum
2.27.67), who says Ianus (Janus) was originally called Eanus, which is derived from eundo
(going), because Janus, who is the Universe, is always moving, whirling in a circle... This is the
reason, he says, that the Phoenicians represent Janus by the Ouroboros serpent." (983)

Hippolytus wrote in his Refutation of All Heresies: "The Assyrians say that fish-eating Oannes
was (the first man...)..." (1015) Considering that Oannes and Osiris, which are probably pagan
names for Adam ( 132:81), are also identified as Viracocha, the sun-god of the Incas, it is
interesting to note in the photos below the identical hand positions of Pierre Plantard and the
stele [stone pillar] representation of Viracocha. This positioning of the hands is precisely the
same as certain French Black Madonnas pictured in the section, Virgo in Anticrist!
H.P Blavatsky associated Quezalcoatl, the serpent god, with Ham and Canaan, the Dragon race,
known in medieval Europe as the Merovingian dynasty.

"Dr. Bourbourg hints that the chiefs of the name of Votan, the Quetzo-Cohuatle, or
serpent deity of the Mexicans, are the descendants of Ham and Canaan. 'I am Hivim,'
they say, 'Being a Hivim, I am of the great race of the Dragon (snake). I am a snake
myself, for I am a Hivim.' And des Mousseaux, rejoicing because he believes himself
fairly on the serpent's, or rather, devil's trail, hurries to explain: 'According to the
most learned commentators of our sacred books, the Chivim or Hivim, or Hevites,
descend from Heth, son of Canaan, son of Ham...the accursed!'" (195:554,Vol.I)

The Serpent Holder of medieval times was claimed to have been St. Benedict, another celibate and
a Merovingian who founded the monastic Benedictine Order for the purpose of infiltrating and
controlling the Roman Catholic Church: "...Julius Schiller...made of [Ophiuchus] Saint Benedict in
the midst of the thorns, for it was this founder of the order of the Benedictine monks, who, with his
followers in the 6th century inspired and carried on all the learning of the times, as Aesculapius-
Ophiuchus had done in his day." (927:299) Like Quetzalcoatl, St. Benedict is credited with
preserving the Hermetic arts and sciences during the period when the Roman Church dominated
Western civilization and persecuted aberrant sects which spread the Gnostic heresy. (The reader is
hopefully beginning to understand the true character of certain adversaries of the Church of Rome
during the Middle Ages.)

At this point we shall venture to interpret the symbolism of the hand position of Viracocha, who
appears to be embracing himself! As stated, Viracocha, the serpent god was celibate, as was St.
Benedict, who was Ophiuchus, the Serpent-Holder of his era. An article by Peter Jones titled
"Androgyny: The Pagan Sexual Ideal" documents that the ancient goddesses required their priests
to emasculate themselves in varying degrees:
to emasculate themselves in varying degrees:

"Throughout time and across space, the pagan cultus consistently, though not
exclusively, holds out as its sexual representative the emasculated, androgynous
priest.... Androgynous priests were associated with the worship of the goddess Istar
from the Sumerian age (1800 BC)... Examples of 'religious' androgyny can be found
in various forms in Syria and Asia Minor in the third century B.C., but its clearest and
closest expression in that area comes from the Roman Empire at the beginning of the
Christian era. It is well documented that the Great Mother under the names of
Atargatis or Cybele had androgynous priests, called Galli, who castrated themselves as
a permanent act of devotion to the goddess. A particular version of the goddess is
worshipped under the name of Artemis at Ephesus where Paul established a church
(Acts 19). In Syria, Cybele is called Rhea, whose effeminized itinerant priests imitated
the deeds of the mythological Attis, in trance-like ecstasies... The obvious intentions
and results of such cultic mythology and practice were the feminization and
emasculation of men under the occultic power of the goddess...
"At the beginning of the fifth century AD the cult of the goddess Cybele continued
to have success. Augustine in his City of God vividly describes the 'games' offered in
honor of Tanit, the celestial 'virgin' and mother of the gods, where obscene actors role-
played disgusting acts 'in the presence of an immense throng of spectators and listeners
of both sexes.' He also describes the public display of homosexual priests (galloi)...
[T]he Mesopotamian assinnus, the Canaanite qedeshim, the Scythian ennares, and the
Syrian galli ...took on the same androgynous appearance, engaged in the same ecstatic
behavior, including self-mutilation, were associated with occultic spirituality, and so
in many ways occupied a similar liminal relationship to 'normal' society." (1073)

What was the pagan rationale for an androgynous priesthood? The Encyclopedia of Religion gives
some insight into androgyny and its appeal to pantheists of all ages: "Many myths point out that the
permanently fused androgyne is, technically, the one creature in the world who is certain to be
unable to copulate. As Alan Watts has remarked, the androgyne symbolizes a state 'in which the
erotic no longer has to be sought or pursued, because it is always present in its totality'." (146:278)
"Androgynes"

Monism, meaning 'single,' is a pantheistic conception of the world as opposed to 'dualism,' the
good vs. evil heresy discussed above. Monism reduces all phenomena to one principle; therefore,
the whole of reality constitutes one inseparable and indivisible entirety. It is from the Greek word
"monism" that the terms "monk" and "monastic" were derived. Peter Jones observed that monastic
celibacy was the Gnostic corollary to the pagans' androgynous priesthood:

"Later in the second and third centuries of the Christian church, the Gnostics were
credited by their adversaries with mystery celebrations involving carnal knowledge.
The charge is credible because 'Christian' Gnosticism was the attempt to Christianize
pagan spirituality, even to the point of adopting some form of androgyny. In the
ancient Gnostic texts such connections can be detected. The Church Father
Hippolytus, documents how and why the 'spiritual' Gnostics did not hesitate to imitate
pagan spirituality and sexuality in one form or another. He explains the Gnostic
Naasene participation in the cult of the Goddess. 'Because they claimed that
everything is spiritual,' the Naasenes did not become Galli physically but rather
spiritually: 'they only perform the functions of those who are castrated' by
abstaining from sexual intercourse. So, concludes Hippolytus, the Naasene Gnostics
imitate the Galli, the castrated priests of Cybele. 'For they urge most severely and
carefully that one should abstain, as those men (the Galli) do, from intercourse with
 carefully that one should abstain, as those men (the Galli) do, from intercourse with
women; their behavior otherwise...is like that of the castrated.' The mythological story
of the castration of Attis thus led the Naasenes to conclude that the image of
emasculation was a symbol of salvation. Attis cut off his testicles in order to 'break
with the baser and material world and gain access to immortal life, where there is no
longer either male or female.' These 'Christian' Gnostics sought, through a deep form
of spiritual androgyny, a close association with paganism's understanding of
salvation." (1073)

Dropping the Frame

In 1604, at the height of the 17th century Rosicrucian Enlightenment (when the the authority of the
Roman Church over Europe had been significantly undermined by the Reformation) a Supernova
appeared in the constellation of Serpentarius. This spectacle was noted by Peter Dawkins in The
Great Vision: The Judaic-Christian Mysteries: The Vision and Birth of the New Rosicrucianism:

"A supernova is a star which explodes catastrophically, with a sudden liberation of

most of its energy and the dissipation of nearly the whole mass of the star into space.
Its explosion appears to us about ten thousand times as bright as an ordinary nova. The
only supernovae observed in our Galaxy during the past thousand years occurred in
A.D. 1006 (in Lupus), 1054 (in Taurus), 1572 (in Cassiopeia), and in 1604 (in
Ophiuchus). All reached apparent magnitudes considerably brighter than zero,
releasing as much energy in one second as our Sun does in sixty years... All of them
are present-day radio sources." (902:69)

The 1572 supernova in Cassiopeia, which had preceded Serpentarius, was recognized by
Rosicrucians as a "portent of some convulsive change in the order of the world...the entrance of the
world into the seventh revolution that would inaugurate the golden age." (Ibid.) In her book The
Rosicrucian Enlightenment, Frances Yates cited the Rosicrucian manifesto, Confessio Fraternatis,
which attached similar importance to the 1604 supernova in Serpentarius (Ophiuchus/ Serpent
Holder) as heralding the Golden Age to come:

"...before the end, God will allow a great influx of truth, light, and grandeur,
such as surrounded Adam in Paradise, to be poured forth on mankind. New stars
have appeared in the constellations Serpentarius and Cygnus which are signs of the
coming of these things...
"...a representation of the Invisible College of the R.C. Brothers...[illustrates] in
the sky...a Serpent and a Swan, bearing stars and alluding to the 'new stars' in
Serpentarius and Cygnus mentioned in the Confessio as prophetic of a new
dispensation...
"'...the Lord God hath already sent before certain messengers, which should
testify his will, to wit, some new stars, which do appear and are seen in the
firmament in Serpentino and Cygno, which signify and give themselves known to
everyone, that they are powerful Signacula of great weighty matters.'" (Confessio
Fraternitatis) (46:48,94,256)

According to The Guinness Book of Answers, "Ophiuchus is considered by European astrologers

to be not so much the 13th sign as the second half of the sign of Scorpio." (982) The
Constellations website confirms that "Out of the twenty-five days, from the 21st of November
to the 16th of December, which the sun spends in passing from Libra to Sagittarius, only nine
are spent in the Scorpion, the other sixteen being occupied in passing through Ophiuchus". (833)
Richard Allen Hinckley indicates that Ophiuchus seems to have greater claim to a place in the
 Richard Allen Hinckley indicates that Ophiuchus seems to have greater claim to a place in the
Zodiac than does Scorpio: "Although nominally in the zodiac, the sun actually occupies but nine
days in passing through the two portions [of Scorpio] that project upward into Ophiuchus, so far
south of the ecliptic is it; indeed, except for these projections, it could not be claimed as a
member of the zodiac." (927:364)

True, it will be under the sign of Scorpio that the earth will 'drop the frame' and transition into a
"new and more etherealized formation...ascending into the New Earth Star." However, all of the
evidence seems to locate the timing of this event in the Scorpio's decan, Ophiuchus.

SAGITTARIUS: GATE OF THE GODS

"[Sagittarius] is a centaur--part man and part horse, and he is an archer.

The word Sagittarius means 'The Archer.' In Akkadian, he is called Nun-
ki, which means 'The Prince of the Earth.'. ...this depicts Christ...the
victorious one--the risen and victorious king. He comes now as an
archer... destroying Satan... The human portion of the Centaur is drawing
a bow and aiming an arrow at Antares, the very heart of the Scorpion... So
here we see that Christ, the Conquering One, is the One whose arrow is
aimed at the Scorpion.
"That this is a picture of Christ is made clear in Revelation 6:2 where
we read of Christ coming forth in glory: 'And I saw, and behold a white
horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him:
and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.' Here is the One who
comes upon a white horse, who has a bow, and goes forth conquering and
to conquer. The one who is conquered is, first of all, the leader of the host
of all of the ungodly, namely--Satan, or the Scorpion, Sagittarius (Christ)
is the conqueror of the Scorpion." (D. James Kennedy) (872:46)

And I saw when the Lamb opened ONE OF THE SEALS, and I heard, as
it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow;
 and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to
conquer. - Rev. 6:1-2

Kennedy's exposition of the Book of Revelation is typical of Reformed theology, which derives its
eschatology from St. Augustine, the 'Father of Roman Catholicism'. Augustine's City of God served
to advance the agenda of the Roman Church, which was to establish the Kingdom of God on earth.
Rather than interpreting the book of Revelation as a prophecy of the end times, Catholic and
Reformed theologians allegorize the prophecies in order to apply them to Christ and the Church.
Dispensational eschatology, which seeks the literal sense of Scripture unless a symbolic
interpretation is warranted, contends that Rev. 6:1 cannot be spiritualized as Jesus Christ coming
forth in glory to conquer Satan, the reason being that this occurs after the Tribulation period in
Revelation 19. Correctly interpreted, Revelation 6:1 is the first Seal Judgment which commences
the Tribulation Period.

Who then does the First Horseman of the Apocalypse represent? The seal of the Knights Templar
depicted two knights riding a single horse. However, a single horseman riding on a white horse is
the logo of the Council on Foreign Relations. This logo appears in the CFR magazine, Foreign
Affairs. (882)

Compounding his error, Kennedy further identifies the First Horseman of the Apocalypse with
Sagittarius whose name, Nun-ki, is said to mean "Prince of the Earth" in Akkadian. Kennedy does
not inform his readers that this language is Babylonian-Assyrian or that Nun-ki really means "son
of Enki". "En.ki is the Sumerian Poseidon, the Chaldean Ea, the Babylonian Oannes, the Celtic
Merlin, the Palestinian Dag, the Greek Dagon, the Irish Dagda and the Cretan Baal, who carries a
trident like Poseidon and the Hindu Vishnu... Christians call En.ki the Devil or more appropriately
a Sea Devil." (899) In the Merovingian Dragon tradition, "the importance of Cain was that he was
directly produced by Enki [Satan] and Ava [Eve], so his blood was three quarters Anunnaki."
(Laurence Gardner) (612)

"Sumerian texts repeatedly state that the Anunnaki came to Earth. The Anunnaki were
four great Gods who created man: An ['Sky', the source of rain and most powerful of
the gods]; Enlil ['Lord Wind', the power in 'Growing Weather']; Ninhursaga ['Lady of
the Stony Ground', mother of wildlife]; and Enki [rival of Ninhursaga]. The term
'Anunnaki' literally means 'from or of the sky.' The Annunaki are regarded by some as
the Sumerian ‘fates’. They are spoken of in the Bible as the 'Anakim' and 'Anak' or
'Nefilim' (nephilum). 'Nefilim' (nephilum) in Hebrew means 'giants' or 'those who have
fallen'." (859)

The Anunnaki were actually the Nephilim of Genesis 6, fallen angels who mated with human
women. The Centaur, therefore, represents a hybrid man and devil!

That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them
wives of all which they chose. And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive
with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God
came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became
mighty men which were of old, men of renown.- Gen. 6:1-3
Contrary to pagan mythology, the Anunnaki did not create mankind but instead produced the
demonic race of giants which God judged with a great flood. The son of Enki, Nun-ki — whom D.
James Kennedy erroneously identifies as 'The Prince of the Earth' who 'depicts Christ'— was, in
fact, sired by Satan. Such blasphemies abound in The Real Meaning of the Zodiac; in fact, it is
asserted that nearly every beast of the Zodiac portrays the Lord Jesus Christ in His Messianic work
of redemption. As the reader works his way through this heretical material, a very alien picture
emerges of another Christ and another gospel.

GATE OF THE GODS

The Gates of the Sun are the two points on the Zodiac where it is believed that souls enter or leave
the material world. Before the present Age of Pisces, the Gates of the Sun were Cancer and
Capricorn. By this is meant that, in the preceding age of Aries, Cancer was in the Milky Way and,
when the Sun passed through Cancer, souls from other star systems were able to incarnate into
matter (Earth) to assist mankind (the Microcosm) to ascend to the Universal Soul (the Macrocosm)
where they became gods. The latter could only take place when the Sun was in Capricorn, the sign
opposite Cancer, which also intersected with the Milky Way during the Age of Aries. Due to the
precession of the equinoxes, the 'Gates of the Gods' became Gemini and Sagittarius for the Age of
Pisces. By 'precession of the equinoxes' is meant that, due to the earth’s wobble, the North Pole
moves backward one zodiacal sign every 2,000 years. Albert Pike explains this astrological
hogwash in Morals & Dogma:

"The Galaxy, Macrobius says, crosses the Zodiac in two opposite points, Cancer
and Capricorn, the tropical points in the sun's course, ordinarily called the Gates of
the Sun. These two tropics, before his time [Aries], corresponded with those
constellations, but in his day [Pisces] with Gemini and Sagittarius, in consequence
of the precession of the equinoxes; but the signs of the Zodiac remained
unchanged; and the Milky Way crossed at the signs Cancer and Capricorn, though
not at those constellations.
"Through these gates souls were supposed to descend to earth and re-ascend to
Heaven. One, Macrobius says, in his dream of Scipio, was styled the Gate of Men;
and the other, the Gate of the Gods. Cancer was the former, because souls
descended by it to the earth; and Capricorn the latter, because by it they re-
ascended to their seats of immortality, and became Gods." (155:437-8)

Occultists understand that the Macrocosm is a euphemism for the Underworld, which their adepts
and masters have convinced them is Paradise. Ancient Egyptians and the Constellations describes
Sagittarius as the portal or birth canal leading to the Underworld in the present Age of Pisces. As
the 'Galactic Stellar Womb' or Mother, Sagittarius will be impregnated by the Sun, the father, when
it passes through this constellation, and this union will produce the New Age, the Age of Aquarius.
That's right. The constellation Sagittarius is the Galactic Stellar Womb that will be impregnated by
father Sun. {See Galactic Chart showing Sagittarius at the center of the Milky Way.}

The constellation of Sagittarius. This aspect of the Great Conjunction is of

paramount importance because Sagittarius is the gateway to the centre of our galaxy.
(This is the opening or portal to the Netherworld in mythology.) The galaxy to which
Earth belongs is called the Milky Way. It is a flat, spiral galaxy except for at the
centre where it bulges. You can actually see this bulge formed by the internal dotted
lines of the Milky Way where the Sun is rising in the Constellation of Sagittarius on
the computer simulation. This is the Galactic Stellar Womb from which the rest of the
 galaxy was conceived and born. Today the Womb is estimated to contain 200 billion
suns! Sagittarius can be equated with the entrance to the birth canal of the galaxy.
When the Sun is in Sagittarius as part of the Great Conjunction, it is fathering a New
Age...
"The Great Conjunction, when the Sun fathers a New Age, will last for only a split
second of Time. Nearly three hours later, at 9:34 am, the Sun will be risen and the new
child of the Age of Aquarius will have been born. As with the virgin births of Hesus
and Jesus, the father is God the Sun. However in this instance the child is conceived in
the Womb of Sagittarius, the Mother. The child is the new-born Son/Sun of God in the
Age of Aquarius. God the Father and God the Son are one and the same. They are
both the Sun. In the New Age of Aquarius the Sun is risen … the Son is risen." - 903
(Part 16)

Yea, they have chosen their own

ways, and their soul delighteth in
their abominations. I also will
choose their delusions... Is. 66:4

LYRA, THE HARP

The first decan, or minor constellation, in Sagittarius is Lyra, which astrologers have cast in the
shape of a lyre or harp. Astrologers, including D. James Kennedy and E. W. Bullinger, combine
the lyre with an eagle rising.

"We now come to the three decans, or minor points, which exist in Sagittarius. The
first one is Lyra, The Harp, or lyre, meaning 'Praise for the Conqueror.' Lyra is
shown as a harp combined with an eagle or an eagle rising with a harp." - (872:48)

The rising eagle is extraordinarily similar to the symbol on the Great Seal of the United States,
which we learned in the section on Scorpio symbolized the rebirth of mankind after its
annihilation. Note that the Great Seal even incorporates Lyra's harp, albeit camouflaged with
the American stripes!

We quote here from David Ovason's book, The Secret Architecture of the Nation's Capitol, in
which he impassively states that the American people have been thoroughly deceived by this
abstruse imagery whilst initiates of the secret societies mock at their ignorance:

"...if one is going to study the arcane background to the formation of the United
States, one should start with the eagle, which is also the heraldic bird on the
 obverse of the Seal of the United States of America. This fearsome-looking bird, so
widely used in the symbolism of the States, is what esotericists have called an
'open mystery': by contrast the eagle as used by the early Masons, and by the
Rosicrucians and alchemists before them, was an 'occult blind'. This means that it
was designed to carry an open symbolism acceptable to the uninitiated, yet, at the
same time, to hide a more profound meaning accessible only to those familiar with
arcane symbolism." (512:218)

What is the symbolism of the lyre or harp in the Great Seal and Lyra, the Harp as interpreted by
astrology? In the pre-flood world, musical instruments were invented by the descendants of
Cain for pagan worship.

And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod,
on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch:
and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son,
Enoch. And unto Enoch was born Irad: and Irad begat Mehujael: and Mehujael
begat Methusael: and Methusael begat Lamech. And Lamech took unto him two
wives: the name of the one was Adah, and the name of the other Zillah. And Adah
bare Jabal: he was the father of such as dwell in tents, and of such as have cattle.
And his brother's name was Jubal: he was the father of all such as handle the harp
and organ. And Zillah, she also bare Tubalcain, an instructer of every artificer in
brass and iron: and the sister of Tubalcain was Naamah. - Gen. 4:17-22

"As pointed out by Laurence Gardner in 'Genesis of the Grail Kings', the biblical
Tubal-cain (who is revered in scientific Freemasonry) was the great Vulcan of
Mesopotamia during the reign of Egypt's King Narmer (c.3200 BC). He was a
prominent alchemist and the greatest metallurgist of his age, while his step-brother
Jubal was said to be 'the ancestor of all who handle the lyre and pipe' - whence the
word Jubilee, meaning 'a blast of trumpets' or 'to lead with triumph or pomp'. The
ritual connection in pleasing the gods with brass horns and trumpets is very
apparent in this era and a later association between angels and the medieval buisine
(long trumpet) probably originates from this time." - 740

Vega: The Real Stargate

The brightest star in the constellation of Lyra, the Harp, is also a second magnitude star in our
galaxy. Vega is described by E.W. Bullinger as a most glorious star which means 'He shall be
exalted':

"Its brightest star, a, is one of the most glorious in the heavens, and by it this
constellation may be easily known. It shines with a splendid white lustre. It is
called Vega, which means He shall be exalted. Its root occurs in the opening of the
Song of Moses, quoted above. Is not this wonderfully expressive?" (Bullinger) 939
"Lyra"

Rev. Kennedy agrees with Rev. Bullinger.

"A very bright star in [Lyra] is Vega, a glittering gem in the night sky, and
means 'He Shall Be Exalted'. Vega has been this star's name down through
antiquity. It is the name which God Himself gave to it that He should be exalted—
that Christ has come forth conquering and to conquer. What should be our response
 to that? Our response should be: He shall be exalted! It is interesting that this term
is found in the song of Moses, after God overthrew the forces of Pharaoh in the
Red Sea: 'I will sing unto the Lord, for he hath triumphed gloriously' (Exodus
15:1).
"Verse 12 of Psalm 21 talks about making ready for His arrows against the face
of them and says, 'Be thou exalted, LORD , in thine own strength; so will we sing
and praise thy power. The very meaning of the star Vega is 'He Shall Be Exalted.'
By His great power and might has He conquered; therefore, we are to sing His
praises." (872:48)

Contrary to this false teaching, Vega does not mean 'exalted' but precisely the opposite. This
Arabic word means "falling." As a matter of fact, it means 'falling eagle'—as in Lucifer,
symbolized by the eagle, falling from heaven!

Vega. Medieval Latin, from Arabic (an-nasr) al-w qi‘, the falling (eagle), Vega:

down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! - Isaiah 14:12

And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. - Luke 10:18

Kennedy, Bullinger, et al, do err in identifying Vega a symbol of Christ, the Exalted One, for it
is obvious that the Christ symbolized by Vega is Lucifer, the Fallen One! Vega's placement in
the constellation of Lyra, the Harp, is most Biblical. Lucifer was created as the most brilliant of
all of the angels and occupied an exalted position in Heaven, below only the Godhead. Before
his rebellion, Lucifer appears to have led the worship of God in musical ways, being the chief
musician of Heaven.

Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering,
the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the
sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy
tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast
created. Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou
wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of
the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast
created, till iniquity was found in thee. - Ezek. 28:13-15

When he presumed to exalt himself above God, Lucifer was cast down to earth where, through
the ages, he has craved the worship of men and has often been the object of their worship.
Moreover, the worship of Lucifer has typically been accompanied by music of the occult genre.
During the Tribulation period, the music which will accompany the worship of Lucifer will also
facilitate altered states of consciousness and even levitation.

According to The Fixed Stars, the star, Vega, gives the appearance of being pale sapphire.
Ezekiel 28:13 (above) states that, prior to his expulsion from heaven, Lucifer was covered with
precious stones, and among these gems is mentioned the sapphire. Occult sources correctly
describe Vega as a 'falling vulture'. The Fixed Stars states that the Vega vulture is based on the
Greek myth of Orpheus, who was the greatest of all musicians and the first rock star!
 "A pale sapphire star in the Lyre Lyra. Vega from Arabic Al-Waqi', 'The
stooping' eagle or 'The swooping Vulture', and is often referred to as 'The Vulture
Star', 'The Sitting Vulture', 'The Falling Grype' and figured with upturned head with
a lyre in its beak from the story of Orpheus [who might be described as the
prototype of our modern pop-star] who was torn apart by the Maenads, raving mad-
women [or fans], they cast the lyre in the river. Jupiter sent a vulture to scoop it out
of the river and then placed it in the sky..." (1043) 'Lyra'

Lucifer Rising

It becomes apparent that eagle on the Great Seal of the U.S. represents, in fact, the Masonic
delusion of Lucifer rising from the ashes of defeat to 'be exalted' as God, a status formerly
denied him (and will elude him once again). Lucifer's former estate is allegedly reflected in the
fact that Vega was once the Pole Star, the closest star to the Northern Celestial Pole, which, in
astrology, is regarded as the throne of God. Note in the following profile of Vega the exalted
titles of this star, which correspond to the titles of Lucifer and his emissaries:

In Babylonian astronomy, Vega, alpha Lyra, is identified with Dilgan, the

'Messenger of Light', a name also applied to other stars. At one time Vega/Wega
was the Pole-star called in Akkadian Tir-anna 'Life of Heaven', and in Assyrian
Daya-same ('Judge of Heaven'), as having the highest seat therein; but fourteen
millenniums have passed since Wega occupied that position. In Egypt it was Maat,
the Vulture-star, when it marked the pole,- this was 12,000 to 15,000 BCE, and it
was the orientation point of some of the temples at Denderah, probably 7,000
BCE,- one of the oldest dates claimed in connection with Egyptian temple
worship, because of the precession of the equinoxes, it is no longer the Pole Star;
'the still point in the turning world'. The Indians called this star Abhtlit, 'The
Victorious One'. This was a star of good omen signaling the defeat of the Asuras
by the gods (the triumph of good over evil). The Arabs called part of this
constellation (alpha, eta and zeta) Al Naar al Waki, the swooping "Stone Eagle of
the Desert". The word Vega, derives from this Arab name and means the
"Plunging One". [SLM p.284]." (833) "Lyra"

Ominously, Vega (aka Lucifer) is regarded as the 'Judge of Heaven', which Richard Hinckley
Allen identifies with Ma'at in Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning. Ma'at was last seen in the
section on Libra as the 'Scales of Justice'. "The Egyptians also saw in Libra, a set of Scales,
called 'the Scales Of Maat', one in which the human heart was to be weighed after death." (833,
'Libra') The reader will recall that Ma'at was 'the spirit of Freemasonry;' indeed, Ma'at, the judge
of mankind, is Freemasonry. It appears the Freemasons have appointed themselves the judges
of mankind! Yet how very telling that Ma'at is also Vega, i.e. Lucifer.

For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the
sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the
most High. - Isaiah 14:13-14

On a planisphere, at 8 p.m. on November 22, the day Noah on which disembarked from the
Ark, Vega corresponds to the capstone of a pyramid known as the Summer Triangle.

And in the second month, on

the seven and twentieth day
 of the month, was the earth
dried. And God spake unto
Noah, saying, Go forth of the
ark, thou, and thy wife, and
thy sons, and thy sons' wives
with thee. Bring forth with
thee every living thing that is
with thee, of all flesh, both of
fowl, and of cattle, and of
every creeping thing that
creepeth upon the earth; that
they may breed abundantly in
the earth, and be fruitful, and
multiply upon the earth. And
Noah went forth, and his sons,
and his wife, and his sons'
wives with him: Gen. 8:14-18

Vega is positioned at the Apex of the Sun's Way. The opposite point in the heavens, the Sun's
Quit, lies between the stars Sirius and Canopus, also in the Milky Way. These two important
points on the Milky Way—Vega in Sagittarius and Sirius-Canopus in Gemini—are the Gates of
the Sun for the Age of Pisces. Recall that Sagittarius is the Gate of the Gods, where the gods
incarnate into matter. This is an important clue to the significance of Vega, as well as the fact
that Vega rises at twilight on May 1, the high feast of Beltane, the Druidic New Year:

"Professor Lewis Boss and Herr Stumpe place near it the Apex of the Sun's
Way...
"Wega rises at sunset far toward the north on the 1st of May, and, being
visible at some hour of every clear night throughout the year, is an easy and
favorite object of observation. It culminates on the 12th of August." (927:286)

For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the
sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the
most High. (Is.14:13-14)

The sun is at its apex at high noon. Black magicians worship Satan at midnight, however,
practitioners of so-called 'white magic' worship Lucifer as the Daystar at high noon. Beltane is
the Druidic feast of Baal, who rises from the underworld on that day. A cryptic statement by
Bill Clinton, as quoted in Fritz Springmeier's The Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines, reveals that the
secret societies have solemn plans for a future feast of Beltane, at which time Lucifer will rise
from Hell:

"Bill Clinton in his inaugural speech said, 'This ceremony is held in the depths of
winter but, by the words we speak and the faces we show the world, we force the
spring.' Clinton repeated the words 'we force the spring' later in the speech. That
expression is a very unusual expression. To 'force the spring' is witchcraft language.
In witchcraft and satanism Lucifer (Baal) rises from the underworld on May 1st
(also known by the following list of names Beltaine, a major European holiday,
Communism and the Illuminati's chief holiday, and Walpurgis). The May 1st rising
brings forth the season of fertility, which the witches each year take credit for, by
 claiming that their magic rituals 'force the spring.' The ritual magic that 'forces the
spring' is done on 3 Sabbats-the first is Imbolg (also known by names: Candiemas
by the Catholics and Ground Hog Day by common dupes); the second is the vernal
equinox (Mar. 20) in which blood and sex rituals are carried out and the third is
Beltaine (May 1) in which fire festivals are done. This is one of the fire festivals
which people around the United States tell me they have witnessed from a distance.
Witches believe that on May 1st, the female force completes her takeover from the
male force.)." ( 77:221)

And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and
to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit;
and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun
and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit... And they had a king
over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew
tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon. - Rev. 9:1-
2,11

And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of
the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill
them. - Rev. 11:7

The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless
pit, and go into perdition: - Rev. 17:8

The vernal equinox, on or about March 21, marks the beginning of Spring. It also marks the
sign of Aries, when, according to Aleister Crowley, the Great World of transforming humanity
begins.

"Aleister Crowley. . .taught that the Great Work [is] the 'transformation of
humanity'. . .we are told that the Great Work 'may only be begun in the spring,
under the signs of Aries, Taurus, and Gemini. . .it was May 1st when the ancient
druids honored their great Sun God and Goddess with an uninhibited festival
complete with initiations, sex orgies, drunken revelry, and human sacrifice." -
140:230

Aries (Ram): March 21–April 19

Taurus (Bull): April 20–May 20
Gemini (Twins): May 21–June 20

The high Druidic feast of Beltane was notorious for its fiery rites of human sacrifice, according
to Samantha Smith and Brenda Scott, authors of The Trojan Horse: How the New Age
Infiltrates the Church:

"Tacitus alludes to the fact that the Druids of Anglesea 'covered the alters with
the blood of captives.' Julius Caesar wrote that human sacrifice was a common and
frequent occurrence among the Celts and that the Druids orchestrated the carnage...
It appeared that these mass murders occurred regularly on the feast of Beltain (1
May) to ensure fertility of the soil...
"The Celts celebrated eight religious holidays, all of which were accompanied by
sacrifice. (These are identical to the eight sabbats observed by witches and Satanists
today.)... The four major feasts were: Imbolc, 1 February, the feast of renewal
dedicated to the goddess...Brigit; Beltain, 1 May, honoring the ancient god
Belenos; Lughnaza, 1 August, the festival of the god Lugos; and Samhain 1
November, the Celtic new year and feast of the dead, which was celebrated on 31
October.
"In actuality, the Druids were pantheists who worshipped a myriad of
bloodthirsty deities...
"Beltain and Samhain were times of great fear and uncertainty. Huge bonfires
were lit on these nights, and hundreds of people were burned alive to placate the
every-angry gods. 'Beltain' literally means 'Baal's fire,' and most historians agree
that this was a carry-over of the Baal worship in Canaan...
"The doctrines of the Druids are incredibly similar to those of the New Age."

CAPRICORN

PAN, THE SEA BEAST

"Capricornus...is a picture of the Sea Goat. There is no prototype

of this strange creature, the front half of which is a goat and the
rear half a fish! But that is precisely what Capricornus is! What
does it mean? The goat is in a fallen position with one leg doubled
under his body: the head is bent forward and he is in a dying
situation. On the other hand, the tail of the fish is vigorous and
living. We have hear a beautiful picture of what Christ
accomplished by his death and that He brings forth out of His
death the living body of the Church—referred to in Scripture as
'fishes'." - D. James Kennedy (902:56)

"In Capricorn, Aquarius...we see the Church Age. The head of the
goat, the body of the fish—Jesus is the sacrificial goat and out of
the head of the fish comes the body which is the Church, the
symbol of the fish. And then, of course, there's Aquarius pouring
out the Holy Spirit. That's the day of Pentecost." - J.R. Church
(1053)

"Sophocles also has Pan as the sea wanderer, roaming the seas,
and the conch shell can replace the pipes in some tales... Is Pan
the archetype of the sign of Capricorn, the Sea-Goat, half-Goat,
half fish." (The Great God Pan, 313)

D. James Kennedy's irreverent portrayal of the Lord Jesus Christ as the various
mythological beasts and four-footed creatures of the Zodiac ought to have caused a
groundswell of outrage and protest in the Christian community. The reality is, however,
that many professing Christians have accepted these blasphemous teachings as Biblical. In
this zodiacal sign, Kennedy states that Capricorn, the Sea Goat, is a beautiful picture of
Jesus Christ. To the contrary, the Sea Goat is a representation of Pan, the god of nature
whose worship is first recorded in Arcadia around 6 B.C., which significantly predates the
Tower of Babel, when Dr. Kennedy avers the Zodiac was corrupted from its pristine
original form as God's protevangelium to the world.

"A Greek god with the physique, not of a Greek god, but of a small man with
a goatee beard and reed pipes, and the hind-quarters, horns and sexual habits
of a goat...having been first worshipped in Arcadia, where he was certainly
being worshipped as early as the 6th century BC. This fertile plateau lies in the
South of modern Greece, and there lived the pastoral ancestors of the heroes
who later built the Greek empire. Pan was born there, on Mount Lycaeum..."
(1054)

Arcadia was the ancient home of the Sicambrian Franks, the ethnic group from which the
Merovingians emerged. Some New Age websites like those cited here are even dedicated
to Pan, replete with prayers and poems to this god of lust:

"Capricorn is often depicted as the 'sea goat' from the myth of Pan, the horned
woodland god of goats and shepherds. The bearded and 'horny' Pan was one of
the satyrs, half-human and half-beast, known for their voracious sexual
appetites (origin of the word 'satyriasis'). According to one version of the
myth, Pan, fleeing from the beast Typhon, jumped into a river just as he was
transforming himself into a fish. The lower half of his body became fishlike,
but his upper body above the water remained in the form of a goat." (1007)

Christian rumors of the death of the Great God Pan are greatly exaggerated declared
Blavatsky who predicted that Pan will rise again: "There is a well-known pious legend
which has been current in the Christian world ever since the day of Tiberias, to the effect
that the 'great god Pan is dead'. But people are greatly mistaken in this; neither nature nor
any of her Forces can ever die. A few of these may be left unused, and being forgotten lie
dormant for long centuries. But no sooner are the proper conditions furnished than they
awake to act again with tenfold power." (316:246)

And so the truth about Capricorn, the Sea Goat, is more available in New Age writings
than in the alleged 'gospel in the stars' publications. One famous British occultist, Aleister
'The Beast' Crowley, displayed the sea-goat on his personal seal and also wrote a hymn in
adoration of the goat god, Pan. What did Crowley have in mind? Kenneth Grant, the
Grand Master of the Ordo Templis Orientalis (OTO), the organization once directed by
Crowley in Great Britain, indicates that Crowley's seal conveyed the dark origins of the
Merovingian race.

"...the Merovingian race was sired by a water beast known as the Quinotaur.
This Quinotaur took the form of a sea-bull. Crowley's personal seal was of a
sea goat. Grant, writing of Crowley's Seal of the Beast, says: 'The beast is the
sea-goat or amphibious monster identical with Cthulhu, the Quinotaure or Bull
of the Deep.' Grant writes as a footnote; 'The waters under the earth; home of
the 'ancestors' or subconscious atavisms of the race.' Is this a reference to the
race of the Grail?" (923)

Pan, the lusty god, was also called Pallas, whom Laurence Gardner identified in Bloodline of
the Holy Grail as the progenitor of the Merovingian race of Grail Kings. As Robert Graves
stated in The White Goddess, "The Lusty God--call him Hercules or Hermes or Pan or Pallas or
Pales or Mamurius or Neptune or Priapus or whatever you please..." (406:357)

"Despite the carefully listed genealogies of his time, the heritage of Meroveus was
strangely obscured in the monastic annals. Although the rightful son of Clodion, he
was nonetheless said by the historian Priscus to have been sired by an arcane sea
creature, the Bistea Neptunis... The Sicambrian Franks, from whose female line the
Merovingians emerged were associated with Grecian Arcadia before migrating to
the Rhineland. As we have seen, they called themselves the Newmage — 'People of
the New Covenant', just as the Essenes of Qumran had once been known. It was
the Arcadian legacy that was responsible for the mysterious sea beast — the Bistea
Neptunis — as symbolically defined in the Merovingian ancestry. The relevant sea-
lord was King Pallas, a god of old Arcadia... The immortal sea-lord was said to be
'ever-incarnate in a dynasty of ancient kings' whose symbol was a fish - as was the
traditional symbol of Jesus." ( 29:166,175)

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads
as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto
the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is
able to make war with him? - Rev. 13:1-4

Pagans viewed the creator god as coming forth from the cosmic sea to establish the earth. The
Greek Pan/Pallas was also the god Saturn or Chronos worshipped by the ancient Romans,
Egyptian and Palestinians as the "beast out of the sea". In mythology, the planetary god, Saturn,
emerged from the cosmic sea as the serpent who rescued the world following the chaos of
Genesis 1. According to legend, Saturn founded the utopian kingdom of Atlantis and became
the divine ancestor of all earthly patriarchs and kings. Another Golden Age is anticipated at
which time the demonic gods of Atlantis will return to earth to initiate mankind into the ancient
wisdom and transform the human race into gods. At this time, Saturn (Satan) - aka Chronos,
Pan - will rise from the bottomless pit (Hell) to incarnate the false Christ/Messiah of the world
religion in the occult's false millennium. The following is a brief overview of the history of the
beast out of the cosmic sea.

The Nephilim: Race of the Grail

According to Dagobert's Revenge Magazine, which "is resolutely heralding the renaissance of
the Arcadian Mystique," the 'Cult of the Goat' began with the star system, Capricorn, which
worshipped Enki, a prototype of Satan, who was, in occult lore, the consort of Eve. This being
an impossibility according to Genesis 4:1, the Anunnaki were the fallen angels (Nephilim) that
descended to earth two chapters later. And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the
face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters
of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose...There were giants
in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters
of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of
renown. (Gen. 6:1,4)
These giants were the hybrid offspring of the demons who had mated with human women and
they ruled the ancient pre-Flood civilization. Kenneth Grant calls them the Great Old Ones or
Ancient Ones. "The 'Grail Blood' and the 'bloodline of the Great Old Ones' are the same thing.
They are also the same as the sea-monsters such as Leviathan and Dagon, the 'Lords of the
Deep' and gods of the 'Underworld' or Abyss recorded in the legends of every ancient culture."
(923) One of these sea monsters was worshipped by the Philistines as Dagon, who apparently
survived the Flood, according to Tracy Twyman's article, "Dead But Dreaming: The Great Old
Ones of Lovecraftian Legend Reinterpreted as Sumerian/Atlantean Kings."

"...Dagon or Oannes, a half-human, half-fish combination who was known as the

'Lord of the Flood',...was said to rise out of the sea every day to teach his secret
knowledge to those who followed him. He is mentioned in Samuel, Chapter 5,
when the Philistines capture the Ark of the Covenant and place it in the Temple of
Dagon. Two nights later, 'Dagon was fallen upon is face to the ground before the
Ark of the Lord; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut
off upon the threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.' It is this character
upon which Satan or Lucifer is based, but the physical description attributed to him
applied to an entire race of 'gods', or as they were described in the Bible, Nephilim,
or Fallen Angels, the 'Great Old Ones'..." (923)

Twyman is the editor of Dagobert's Revenge Magazine. The Ancient Ones, as Twyman calls
them, took the form of dogs, dragons or goats, depending on the star system in the cosmic sea
whence they came.

"The Ancient Ones, for their part, seem to be associated both with the Abyss, or
underground sea, and with the constellations as well. This is not a contradiction if
one takes into account the fact that ancient man considered the sky itself to be a
cosmic ocean, and it was often called 'The Abyss' as well. There seem to be three
star systems in particular that the Ancient Ones are associated with, which have
given birth to what Abdul Alhazred describes as: 'The Cult of the Dog, the Cult of
the Dragon, and the Cult of the Goat'...corresponding to the stars Draconis (the
Dragon), Sirius (the Dog-Star), and Capricorn, (the Goat), which is oddly based
on Enki, the prototype of Satan, whom Abdul is calling an 'Elder God.''" (923)

"As above, so below." Kenneth Grant elucidates the dualistic concept of good and evil in terms
of the Hermetic axiom: "the waters beneath the earth that mirror in their uncertain depths the
heights of space above the earth wherein glow the stars, the unborn or un-fleshed souls of
future states of consciousness, or simply life beyond earth. The mortal world spreads east and
west and the land of le invisibles lies above and below it in the vertical dimensions of height
and depths, north and south, Horus and Set.' This ties in with the Book of Enoch and the Hosts
above and the fallen, banished Nephilim below. This also reminds us of the twins or brother
gods in Sumeria called Enki and Enlil. Enki, the infernal of the two, represents Set and Enlil
represents Horus" (923)

The Nephilim from the star system Capricorn were giant sea monsters--half-man, half-fish with
the horns of a goat--which ruled over the pre-Flood civilization called Atlantis.

"...the Nephilim, who, according to our research, were real flesh-and-blood

beings, and ruled as the antediluvian kings of the ancient world over a global
kingdom whose capitol was Atlantis. As they were an expert sea-faring
people—navigators—they were also depicted as sea gods, half-man, half-fish,
 and with the horns of a goat.
"H.P. Lovecraft's most quintessential work, 'The Call of Cthulhu'...comes from
the Book of Enoch, the Nephilim story in Genesis, and the universal tale of the fall
of Atlantis. ...the remains of a high civilization of sea-faring, ocean-obsessed
people...is exactly what Atlantis is described as being, and...their kings, or 'gods'
were depicted as half-man, half-fish." (923)

According to Dagobert's Revenge, it was Enki (Set or Satan) who sired the Merovingian race;
moreover, the head of Capricorn, the Makaru, may be a form of Merovee, progenitor of the
Grail kings, who are successive incarnations of the beast out of the cosmic sea:

"The Nephilim were banished to the center of the earth for disobeying God by
mating with the daughters of men and teaching them the 'forbidden' arts. In this
publication the Nephilim have been identified as the Fathers of the Merovingians...
"...Writing of the Great Old Ones or Elder Gods from Lovecraftian lore, Grant
says, 'The letter M, the key vibration of the plane of the Elder Gods, is represented
mythologically as the sea-goat, Makaru or as the crocodile, the beast of the
waters.' Couldn't Makaru be a form of Merovee who spawned the Merovingians,
and was sired himself from a sea-bull? Tracy Twyman has already written of the
connections between Lovecraft's Necronomicon Mythos and the Merovingians in
her article Dead But Dreaming: The Great Old Ones of Lovecraftian Legend
Reinterpreted as Sumerian/Atlantean Kings..." (571)

Mount Hermon/Sion

The Book of Enoch is a pseudepigraphical book (a work that claims to have been authored by a
biblical character) which was translated into English in 1821 by a professor at Oxford
University. The story of the fallen angels, which is related in great detail in chapters 6-8 of the
Book of Enoch, includes "[a] curious reference in Enoch VI.6, [which] says that...the wicked
angels descended on the summit of the mountain and named it Hermon." (170:372 )

"And the angels, the children of heaven, saw them [handsome and beautiful
daughters] and desired them... And they were altogether two hundred; and they
descended into Ardos, which is the summit of Hermon. And they called the mount
Armon, for they swore and bound one another by a curse." 251:15 [I Enoch VI.6,
vs.1-5]

"Hittite and biblical records support the use of Hermon as a dwelling place of gods...Baal-
gad...and Baal-hermon..." (252:158) ["Hermon, Mount"]

And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we
were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. - Num.
13:33

"Throughout history, the idea of 'The Watchers' have been found in Sumeria,
Peru, Egypt, Mesopotamia and Greece.
"Sumerian texts repeatedly state that the Anunnaki came to Earth. The Anunnaki
were four great Gods who created man: An ['Sky', the source of rain and most
powerful of the gods]; Enlil ['Lord Wind', the power in 'Growing Weather'];
Ninhursaga ['Lady of the Stony Ground', mother of wildlife]; and Enki [rival of
Ninhursaga]. The term 'Anunnaki' literally means 'from or of the sky.' The
 Annunaki are regarded by some as the Sumerian ‘fates’.
'They are spoken of in the Bible as the 'Anakim' and 'Anak' or 'Nefilim'
(nephilum). 'Nefilim' (nephilum) in Hebrew means 'giants' or 'those who have
fallen'. For reference I offer: The King James Bible; Young's Literal translation;
HSV (Hebrew Names version); ASV (American Standard version) and RSV
(Revised Standard version). Numbers 13:22, 28 & 33; Deu 1:28, 9:2...
"The Watchers were a specific race of divine beings known in Hebrew as 'nun
resh ayin' or 'irin' meaning 'those who watch' or 'those who are awake', which is
translated into Greek as Egrhgoroi egregoris or grigori, meaning 'watchers'. The
early books of the Bible speak of some vague heavenly beings called malochim
(singular, malach). Although malach is usually translated 'angel', its literal meaning
is 'messenger.'
"As recounted in the Dead Sea Scrolls: '.....In the days of Jared', two hundred
Watchers 'descended' on 'Ardis', the summit of Mount Hermon - a mythical
location equated with the triple peak of Jebel esh Sheikh (9,200 feet), placed in the
most northerly region of ancient Palestine. On this mountain the Watchers swear an
oath and bind themselves by 'mutual imprecations', apparently knowing full well
the consequences their actions will have both for themselves and for humanity as a
whole. It is a pact commemorated in the name given to the place of their 'fall', for
in Hebrew the word Hermon, or harem, translates as 'curse'." - 859

It is interesting that Dagobert's Revenge views Mount Hermon as the location of Paradise. "The
Nephilim are described as descending from 'Mount Hermon', yet more evidence that Paradise
was located atop a sacred mountain." (860)

Laurence Gardiner identified Capricorn as the emblem of Ham, the rebellious son of Noah:
"...the traditional goat of Capricorn (an emblem of the Biblical Ham and the Grail succession)
was denounced as a heresy of witchcraft." (348:203) The son of Ham was Canaan, who was
cursed by Noah. Is it possible that Canaan was named after Cain? Did Ham carry forward the
Grail succession, as Gardiner's statement seems to indicate?

Following the Great Flood, the in habitants of the land of Canaan established a center for the
worship of Pan, which was Baal-worship, in the northern part of what later became Israel. This
area was known as Paneas or Banias in the region of Mount Hermon, named after the Egyptian
demi-god, Hermes.
 "From ancient times the mountain was a place of worship where the god H[ermon]
(perhaps called Baal-Hermon) was venerated. The oldest text concerning this cult is
a treaty between the Hittites and the Amorite, Aziru, which dates from 1350
B.C. As late as the 4th century, temples were built on the slopes of H[ermon]
whose ruins are still to be seen, among other places, on the highest summit." -
(400:987 )

"The town of Paneas is first mentioned by a Roman historian, Polivius, as a site of

the battle in 200 B.C.E. between Egyptian Ptolemid and Syrian Seleucid Greeks. It
was a site of a Greek pagan temple dedicated to Pan, a goat-footed god of music
and goatherds." (327)

"The Cave of Pan, which dominates the foot of Mount Hermon at Banias, was
known as the passageway to Hades (Mt. 16:13-18)." - (329)

"The cave, known as the cave of Pan, was considered the dwelling place of Pan."
(328)

Upon their entrance into the Land of Promise, God commanded the Israelites to utterly destroy
the inhabitants of Canaan, lest they take up their worship of these abominable gods:

But of the cities of these people, which the LORD thy God doth give thee for an
inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth: But thou shalt utterly
destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the
Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; as the LORD thy God hath commanded
thee: That they teach you not to do after all their abominations, which they have
done unto their gods; so should ye sin against the LORD your God. (Deut. 16:18)

Now Joshua was old and stricken in years; and the LORD said unto him, Thou art
old and stricken in years, and there remaineth yet very much land to be possessed.
This is the land that yet remaineth:...the land of the Giblites, and all Lebanon,
toward the sunrising, from Baalgad under mount Hermon unto the entering into
Hamath. (Joshua 13:5)

The tribe of Dan had relocated from its assigned territory along the seacoast to the
northernmost part of Israel, to the area of Mount Hermon, also called Mount Sion, which had
previously the Canannite center for Baal worship. There the tribe of Dan adopted the pre-flood
paganism [Baal worship] of the Canaanites, the descendants of Ham and his son, Canaan, who
occupied the northern area of Palestine at Mt. Hermon/Sion, which is located at the 33rd degree
latitude and longitude with reference to the Paris Zero Meridian.

And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from Bashan.
Deuteronomy 33:22

And the coast of the children of Dan went out too little for them: therefore the
children of Dan went up to fight against Leshem, and took it, and smote it with the
edge of the sword, and possessed it, and dwelt therein, and called Leshem, Dan,
after the name of Dan their father. This is the inheritance of the tribe of the
children of Dan according to their families, these cities with their villages. Joshua
19:47-48
 And they called the name of the city Dan, after the name of Dan their father, who
was born unto Israel: howbeit the name of the city was Laish at the first. Judges
18:29

"It was first a Canaanite sanctuary for the worship of Baal; perhaps Baal-Hermon
(Judg.3:3; I Chron. 5:23]. It was called by the Greeks Paneas because of its cavern.
. .dedicated to the worship of the god Pan." (299:91)

Tragically, Mount Hermon became to be associated with King Solomon, who was a worshipper
of Baal/Ashtoreth.

Come with me from Lebanon, my spouse, with me from Lebanon: look from the top
of Amana, from the top of Shenir and Hermon, from the lions' dens, from the
mountains of the leopards. - Song of Solomon 4:8

And the high places that were before Jerusalem, which were on the right hand of
the mount of corruption, which Solomon the king of Israel had builded for
Ashtoreth the abomination of the Zidonians, and for Chemosh the abomination of
the Moabites, and for Milcom the abomination of the children of Ammon, did the
king [Josiah] defile. - II Kings 23:013

Israel became a divided nation when the 10 northern tribes led by the tribe of Dan instituted the
worship of Baal at Mount Hermon/Sion in revolt against God who had appointed the Temple on
Mount Zion in Jerusalem for his worship. (I Kings 12) "Ye shall not do so unto the LORD
your God. But unto the place which the LORD your God shall choose out of all your tribes to
put his name there, even unto his habitation shall ye seek, and thither thou shalt come..." (Deut.
12:4,5)

So Israel rebelled against the house of David unto this day. And it came to pass,
when all Israel heard that Jeroboam was come again, that they sent and called him
unto the congregation, and made him king over all Israel: there was none that
followed the house of David, but the tribe of Judah only... Then Jeroboam built
Shechem in mount Ephraim, and dwelt therein; and went out from thence, and built
Penuel. And Jeroboam said in his heart, Now shall the kingdom return to the house
of David: If this people go up to do sacrifice in the house of the LORD at
Jerusalem, then shall the heart of this people turn again unto their lord, even unto
Rehoboam king of Judah, and they shall kill me, and go again to Rehoboam king of
Judah. Whereupon the king took counsel, and made two calves of gold, and said
unto them, It is too much for you to go up to Jerusalem: behold thy gods, O Israel,
which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt. And he set the one in Bethel, and
the other put he in Dan. And this thing became a sin: for the people went to
worship before the one, even unto Dan. And he made an house of high places, and
made priests of the lowest of the people, which were not of the sons of Levi. And
Jeroboam ordained a feast in the eighth month, on the fifteenth day of the month,
like unto the feast that is in Judah, and he offered upon the altar. So did he in
Bethel, sacrificing unto the calves that he had made: and he placed in Bethel the
priests of the high places which he had made. So he offered upon the altar which
he had made in Bethel the fifteenth day of the eighth month, even in the month
which he had devised of his own heart; and ordained a feast unto the children of
Israel: and he offered upon the altar, and burnt incense. (I King 12:19-20,25-33)
The origins of the Merovingians/Prieuré de Sion may be traced to Mount Hermon/Sion
where the Knights Templar established a base during their occupation of Jerusalem. An
article by Sandy Hamblett in The Journal of the Rennes Alchemist, "Godfrey de Bouillon’s
Templar Knights, Mount Sion and the Essenes," associates Mount Hermon/Sion with the
monastic Essene community at Qumran as well:

"When Godfrey liberated the Holy Sepulchre in 1099 he set up base at a place
called Mount Sion. Here, the Crusaders are said to have fortified the area with
towers and battlements. Also based here was the Church of the Apostles. This
article looks at Godfrey’s presence here and why this specific site may have been
important to him and the other Crusader Knights. The amazing identification of this
site with an Essene settlement at the time of Jesus adds fuel to the suggestions that
the Templars may have been looking for specific knowledge once they had control
of the Holy Places." (985)

Laurence Gardner wrote of the Essenes as the antecedents of "The Sicambrian Franks, from
whose female line the Merovingians emerged were associated with Grecian Arcadia before
migrating to the Rhineland. As we have seen, they called themselves the Newmage — 'People
of the New Covenant', just as the Essenes of Qumran had once been known." ( 29:166,175)
Symbols of the goat-god Pan and the Merovingians include the Unicorn and the Baphomet:

"The unicorn is the direct

descendant of Capricorn and Pan..."
(405)

"Capricorn, the goat,...is

Baphomet and the Goat of
Mendes, the symbol of
Satanism and the Templars..."
(907:155)

The origins of the Prieuré de Sion are found in 1st century Alexandria, Egypt, where esoteric
Christianity and paganism were synthesized. The Society of Ormus in Alexandria consisted of
the Therapeutae of Alexandria and the Essenes of Qumran; Ormus became the Prieuré de Sion,
the secret society behind the creation of the Knights Templar and the Crusades.

"The foundation of the Priory can be traced back allegedly to the gnostic adept
Ormus who lived in the first century C.E.... He formed a secret society which
united esoteric Christianity with the teachings of the pagan mystery schools. Ormus
adopted as his symbol a cross surmounted by a rose to signify the synthesis of the
new and old religions. ...Ormus, the legendary first century founder of the secret
society which became the Priory of Sion lived in Alexandria." - 25:31, 142

"Ormus...[was] the name allegedly adopted by the Prieuré de Sion between 1188
and 1307.
"One is intended to see in Ormus the origins of the so-called Rose-Croix, or
Rosicrucians. And in 1188 the Prieuré de Sion is said to have adopted a second
 subtitle in addition to Ormus. It is said to have called itself L'Ordre de la Rose-
Croix Veritas..." - 31:185,123

Robert Graves wrote in The White Goddess that the ancient sun gods were reborn during the
sign of Capricorn, which may explain why the Prieuré de Sion elects its Grand Masters in the
month of January under that sign.

"The tradition preserved by Hyginus in his Poetic Astronomy, shows that Zeus was
born at midwinter when the Sun entered the House of Capricorn.... That the Sun-
gods Dionysus, Apollo and Mithras were all also reputedly reborn at the Winter
Solstice is well-known. And the Christian Church first fixed the Nativity feast of
Jesus Christ at the same season, in the year A.D. 273. St. Chrysostom, a century
later...justified the date as suitable for one who was the 'Sun of Righteousness'."
(406:319)

"Le Serpent Rouge is a singular work. It contains...a sign of the zodiac—a

zodiac of thirteen signs, with the thirteenth, Ophiuchus or the Serpent Holder,
inserted between Scorpio and Sagittarius. Narrated in the first person, the
thirteen prose poems are a type of symbolic or allegorical pilgrimage,
commencing with Aquarius and ending with Capricorn—which, as the text
explicitly states, presides over January 17." (Holy Blood, Holy Grail)
(31:101-2)

Mount Sion/Hermon appears to be the Merovingians' destination point, where they intend to
establish the universal worship of Pan/Baal. The rebuilding of the temple on Mount Zion in
Jerusalem is a diversionary tactic to conceal the true plan and to win Jewish and Evangelical
support (including $$$) to fund their long march toward Mount Sion. The Merovingians will
attempt to build Solomon's Temple in Jerusalem, however the earthquake foretold in Rev. 11:13
will justify their abandonment of Jerusalem in order to build a temple at Dan dedicated to
Pallas, the Greek sea-beast (Rev.13:1).

Interestingly, the name of 'Palestine' is derived from the Greco-Roman god named Pallas/Pales
(Pan). However, Israel is named after God (Elohim). (II Chron. 7:14; Is. 43:7) Those who
renamed Israel as Palestine, did so in order to glorify the Greek phallic god, Pales/Pan, rather
than the true God of Israel. See: The Mark of the Beast and Israel Regathered.

Capricorn & Cancer: Gates of the Gods

The world has not seen the last of the Nephilim, for these demonic creatures are marking time
in the Underworld anticipating another opportunity to return to earth and reestablish their global
kingdom.

"Because of the pride and destructive behavior of the Great Old Ones, their empire
city, R'lyeh, sank beneath the ocean in some punishment by natural disaster
mercifully imposed by God. It is also what is said about the Nephilim in the Bible,
who, along with their offspring, are destroyed by god via the Flood of Noah. The
fact that the Great Old Ones are lead by a being called 'Cthulhu' is significant, for
'Thule' is another name for Atlantis, and the Nazis believed that it was literally
located inside the Earth, in the 'Underworld', in which was located the city of
'Agartha' or 'Agade', the Abode of the Gods. The Hollow Earth, or Underworld
seems to be the place where R'lyeh ultimately sank to, where Cthulhu and the rest
 of the Great Old Ones now remain, sleeping in their watery tomb, 'Dead but
dreaming', as Lovecraft now describes it, waiting for the day when they will
awaken, their city rise from the waves, and their empire shall once again hold
dominion over the whole earth. This echoes the story of the Watchers or the
Nephilim, who are imprisoned by God inside the Earth, or 'the Abyss', which was a
word used by the Ancients to describe the ocean." (923)

And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star fall from heaven unto the earth: and
to him was given the key of the bottomless pit. And he opened the bottomless pit;
and there arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a great furnace; and the sun
and the air were darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit. And there came out of
the smoke locusts upon the earth: and unto them was given power, as the scorpions
of the earth have power. - Rev. 9:1-3

"The theme of the subterranean Lord, imprisoned in the Underworld, who will one
day awaken from his death-like slumber to reclaim his kingdom is, as we have
established in other articles, a very common archetype, most notable in the form of
Kronos, called 'The Forgotten Father' and 'The Hidden One', the leader of the
Titans, and the king of Atlantis, whose kingdom was cast down into the Abyss, and
who was imprisoned therein, thereafter known as the Dark Lord of the Underworld.
And there is clearly an etymological connection between 'Titan' and 'Teitan',
otherwise spelled 'Satan.' The Titans, or Satans, and the Nephilim are clearly the
same as the Great Old Ones, and Kronos, otherwise known as Saturn, or Satan,
is clearly the same as Cthulhu. As we have established, he is also synonymous with
Dagon or Oannes, who is referred to in the Bible as Leviathan, the beast who will
rise from the sea at the Apocalypse. The return of Cthulhu, the Great Old Ones, and
the city of R'lyeh would appear to be Lovecraft's way of depicting the Apocalypse."
(923)

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. - Rev. 13:1-2

Blavatsky informed us that Capricorn, whose hind part was the Dolphin, which is, in fact,
Neptune, the mysterious sea beast who sired Merovee, was associated with the birth of the
'spiritual microcosm' and the death of the physical Universe:

"...the tenth sign of the [Indian] Zodiac has been taken variously to mean a
shark, a dolphin, etc... The dolphin was the vehicle of Poseidon-Neptune with
the Greeks, and one with him, esoterically; and this 'dolphin' is the 'sea-
dragon' as much as the Crocodile of the Sacred Nile is the vehicle of Horus,
and Horus himself...
"...The Dolphin, as every mythologist knows, was placed for his service by
Poseidon among the constellations, and became with the Greeks...
Capricornus, the goat, whose hind part is that of a dolphin, thus shown to be
identical with Makara, whose head is also that of an antelope and the body and
tail those of a fish.
"Let us close by reminding the reader that goats were sacrificed to Amphrite
and the Nerieds on the seashore...and by suggesting what connection these
 animals may have with Capricornus, in which appear twenty-eight stars in the
form of a goat, which goat was transformed by the Greeks into Amalthea,
Jupiter's foster mother. Pan, the god of Nature, had goat's feet, and changed
himself into a goat at the approach of Typhon...
"Suffice it to say, that...the sign of Makara is connected with the birth of the
spiritual 'microcosm' and the death or dissolution of the physical Universe (its
passage into the realm of the Spiritual)..." (H.P. Blavatsky, The Secret
Doctrine) (209:577-9)

According to Blavatsky, the 'sacred crocodile' which abides in Capricorn is really the
Dragon of Wisdom, who transforms earth-bound men into spiritual beings:

"The Fifth [Hierarchy of Spirits] is a very mysterious one, as it is connected

with the Microcosmic Pentagon, the five-pointed star representing man. In
India and Egypt these Dhyanis were connected with the Crocodile, and their
abode is in Capricornus. These are convertible terms in Indian astrology, as
this (tenth) sign of the Zodiac is called Makara, loosely translated 'crocodile.'
The word itself is occultly interpreted in in various ways... In Egypt, the
defunct man—whose symbol is the pentagram or the five-pointed star, the
points of which represent the limbs of a man—was shown emblematically
transformed into a crocodile: Sebekh or Sevekh, or 'seventh,'...is a dragon in
reality, not a crocodile. He is the 'Dragon of Wisdom' or Manas, the 'Human
Soul,' Mind, the Intelligent principle..." (H.P. Blavatsky, The Secret Doctrine)
(209:219, Vol. I)

Traditionally, when the Sun was in Capricorn, the Microcosm (initiate) passed through Capricorn
on its journey toward reunion with with the Macrocosm (Lucifer). When the Sun was in Cancer,
"Christ" souls from other star systems descended into matter to assist mankind, the Microcosm, to
ascend to the Macrocosm where they become Gods.

"Esoterically speaking, John and Jesus, born at the poles of the year, symbolise
our two natures, mortal and immortal, like Castor and Pollux. The soul
descends into matter in John's sign, Cancer, home of the Crib and the Asses,
and journeys back to its source through Capricorn, the sign of Christ and the
winter solstice." (Ean Begg, The Cult of the Black Virgin) (272:125)

Albert Pike explained in Morals & Dogma that in the Age of Pisces, due to the precession of the
equinoxes, the Gates of the Gods became Gemini and Sagittarius:

"The Galaxy, Macrobius says, crosses the Zodiac in two opposite points, Cancer
and Capricorn, the tropical points in the sun's course, ordinarily called the Gates of
the Sun. These two tropics, before his time [Aries], corresponded with those
constellations, but in his day [Pisces] with Gemini and Sagittarius, in consequence
of the precession of the equinoxes; but the signs of the Zodiac remained
unchanged; and the Milky Way crossed at the signs Cancer and Capricorn, though
not at those constellations.
"Through these gates souls were supposed to descend to earth and re-ascend to
Heaven. One, Macrobius says, in his dream of Scipio, was styled the Gate of Men;
and the other, the Gate of the Gods. Cancer was the former, because souls
descended by it to the earth; and Capricorn the latter, because by it they re-
ascended to their seats of immortality, and became Gods." (155:437-8)

THE WATER-POURER

“You have no doubt heard the words, 'It is the

dawning of the Age of Aquarius,' from the popular
song. What does it mean? Just as the stars moved
through the procession of the equinoxes, so we have
moved from one mansion of the zodiac to another.
That procession of the equinoxes is going in the
opposite direction to that which we have been moving
in this series on the zodiac. Interestingly, about the
time Christ came into the world, we moved into the
sign of Pisces, which is the sign of the fish and a
symbol of the people of God. That sign has lasted for
approximately 2,000 years, after which we will be
moving into the sign of Aquarius, meaning a time of
peace and harmony and joy.” - D. James Kennedy
(872:63-64)

“In contemporary gay culture the ‘Age of Aquarius’

 is an inside joke in celebration of homosexual
pedophilia.” (1062)

When D. James Kennedy equated the “Age of Aquarius” with “a time of peace and
harmony and joy,” he flagrantly aligned himself with the New Age Movement. Kennedy is
careful, however, not to mention the source of the aforementioned popular song to his
Christian readers. In an expose of astrology as pseudo-science, Michael Phillip Wright
identified the Broadway musical which made the “Age of Aquarius” a household term:
“Contemporary New Age devotees are celebrating the notion that we are now entering the
'Age of Aquarius,' because this constellation is coming to occupy the position formerly held
by Pisces. The idea was popularized by the 1968 musical Hair.”

The following clip from “History of The Musical Stage: 1960s III: The World Turned
Upside Down” notes that the song “Aquarius” topped the music charts for many years.

“Hair (1968) had only a shadow of a plot, involving a young rock man who
revels in rock and rebellion until he is drafted into the army. He falls in with a
tribe-like group of hippies who sing about such pointed social issues as
poverty, race relations, the Vietnam war and more. This explosion of
revolutionary proclamations, profanity and hard rock shook the musical theatre
to its roots. After brief runs off-Broadway (first at Joseph Papp's Public
Theatre and then a dance club) composer Galt MacDermot and librettists
Gerome Ragni and James Rado revised their 'happening' before moving to
Broadway. 'Aquarius' and 'Let the Sunshine In' became chart-topping hits, and
Hair's counter culture sensibility (including a draft card burning, simulated
sex, and a brief ensemble nude scene) packed the Biltmore Theatre for almost
five years.” (1064)

The lyrics of “Aquarius” communicated the New Age vision using astrological language. This
pop hit also introduced a generation of young people to occultism and the practice of astrology:

AQUARIUS

When the moon is in the Seventh House

and Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius

The age of Aquarius
Aquarius! Aquarius!

Harmony and understanding

Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Aquarius! Aquarius!
 When the moon is in the Seventh House
and Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius

The age of Aquarius
Aquarius! Aquarius!

As our hearts go beating through the night

We dance unto the dawn of day
To be the bearers of the water
Our light will lead the way

We are the spirit of the age of Aquarius

The age of Aquarius
Aquarius! Aquarius!

Harmony and understanding

Sympathy and trust abounding
Angelic illumination
Rising fiery constellation
Travelling our starry courses
Guided by the cosmic forces
Oh, care for us; Aquarius (1065)

Oh, care for us; Aquarius?

In The Witness of the Stars, E.W. Bullinger seemed somewhat anxious to cover up the bawdy
character of Aquarius, eschewing the homophile interpretation of this sign and castigating it as
a Greek “invention”:

“Aquarius is the modern Latin name by which the sign is known. It has the same
meaning, the pourer forth of water. Can we doubt what is the interpretation of this
sign? The Greeks, not knowing Him of whom it testified, were, like the woman of
Samaria, destitute of that living water which He alone can give. They therefore
invented some story about Deucalion, the son of Prometheus; and another, saying
he is Ganymede, Jove's cup-bearer! But, as an astronomer says, 'We must account
otherwise for the origin of this name; for it is not possible to reconcile the symbols
of the eleventh sign (because everyone begins to reckon from Aries, and not as we
have done from Virgo) with Grecian mythology.'” - (939)

Deucalion, whom Bullinger rejects as the human figure in this sign, “was he that poured out the
waters that nearly terminated life on Earth. Only Deucalion, son of Prometheus, and Pyrrha - a
man and a woman - survived this ordeal and reestablished the human population... Deucalion is
associated with Aquarius by Germanicus...” (833:Aquarius) Cirlot's Dictionary of Symbols
states, “All Eastern and Western traditions relate [Aquarius] to the symbolic flood which stands
for the end of a formal universe...” (48:15)

In Greek mythology, Deucalion was Noah; however, the pagan version of the Zodiac is
 distinguished from so-called “Biblical astrology.” J.R. Church rationalizes, “We don't see the
fall and winter in the stars... We don't see the Fall of Adam in the stars... the flood of Noah,...
the Tower of Babel... Everything begins with Virgo bringing forth the son of God.” (1053)
Bullinger contends that the symbols of the constellation Aquarius do not correspond with the
Greek myth. We contend that not one of the signs of the zodiac look like the constellations they
represent but are arbitrary drawings designed to convey subjective concepts. Even D. James
Kennedy admitted: “Remarkably, the stars in the heaven which represent those twelve signs
bear absolutely no resemblance to the pictures of the signs themselves.” (872:8)

AQUARIUS WAS GANYMEDE

In The Witness of the Stars, Rev. Bullinger dismissed Ganymede, “Jove's cup-bearer,” out of
hand, and Kennedy omits Ganymede in his book. Notwithstanding, Ganymede as the
mythological character traditionally identified with the sign of Aquarius.

The king of the Greek gods, Zeus (Rom. Jupiter or Jove), was notorious for his sexual
escapades. Zeus was bisexual, indeed omni-sexual — the archetypal king of porn! Among the
most perverted of Zeus's sexual exploits was his abduction and captivity of Ganymede, the son
of the king of Troy:

Ganymede was the lover of

Zeus:

"'Upon hearing that

Ganymede was to be cup bearer
(male lover) as well as Zeus'
lover, the infinitely jealous Hera
was outraged. Therefore Zeus
set Ganymede's image among
the stars as the constellation
Aquarius, the water carrier.
Aquarius was originally the
Egyptian god over the Nile. The
Egyptian god poured water not
wine from a flagon...
"'All of Zeus' scandalous
liaisons have allegorical
meanings. Zeus' torrid affair
with Ganymede was a
religious justification for
homosexuality within the
Greek culture. Before the
popularity of the Zeus and
Ganymede myth spread, the
only toleration for sodomy was
an external form of goddess
worship. Cybele's male devotees
tried to achieve unity with her
by castrating themselves and
dressing like women.
"While Platonic love needed
 women for regeneration
purposes (grow the attendance)
the philosopher used this myth
to justify his sexual feelings
towards his all male pupils."
Encyclopedia Mythica (1060)

All of the sordid tales involving Zeus were allegories invented by Greek homosexuals to break
down the moral order and return Greece to the pre-flood culture which God judged in Genesis
6. According to the Starlore Handbook, An Essential Guide to the Night Sky by Geoffrey
Cornelius, the name 'Ganymede' means "Rejoicing in virility," which term has a homosexual
connotation. (833:Aquarius) The etymology of Ganymede ('rejoicing') is probably the source of
the current term "gay."

The institutionalization of pederasty (man-boy sex) in Greek and Roman culture was greatly
facilitated by the myth of Ganymede. Since pederasty was practiced by the king of the gods,
Zeus (Rom. Jupiter), homosexual pedophiles came to be regarded as, not only morally
respectable, but more noble than heterosexuals. Likewise, homosexual unions were considered
superior to heterosexual marriage "and to the nobler type of homosexual love Greek society
attached honor and even virtue" (1071:91-2). In particular, pederasty—man to boy sex—was
exalted to a virtue.

The Pink Swastika is a compelling expose of the the Nazi Party as a male supremacist
homosexual elite. When Adolf Hitler ran for Chancellor of Gemany on a platform of traditional
values, he called for a rebirth of the Greek ideal, the New Man. However, Hitler's ideal was an
Aryan nobility of the ancient androgynous race sired by demons, per Genesis 6. Authors Scott
Lively and Kevin Abrams demonstrate that the German National Socialists derived their view
of homosexuality as a masculine virtue from the ancient Greeks. The following excerpt from
The Pink Swastika describes the formidable power and predatory nature of the homosexual elite
in ancient Greek culture:

“This 'Greek ideal' was a culture of pederastic male supremacy. Male

homosexuality, especially between men and boys, was considered a virtue in
Hellenic (Greek) society. Plato and Socrates were both pederasts, and considered
man/boy sex to be superior to heterosexual relations. As Greenburg notes, 'Plato
makes clear in the Symposium that it was perfectly acceptable to court a lad, and
admirable to win him... Pederasty did not lurk in the shadows of Greek life, it was
out in the open (Greenburg:148,151).
“Cantarella writes that '[t]he gender which attracted and tempted Socrates was
the male sex' as well. She cites another of Plato’s dialogues in which Socrates falls
in love with Cydias, a schoolboy, proclaiming '[I] caught fire, and could possess
myself no longer' (ibid.:56ff).
“Not everyone accepted the spread of homosexuality in Hellenic Society. In
Athens especially, parents tried to protect their children from predatory pederasts
who had overrun the city. It became customary for parents to send chaperones with
their male children to and from school. (ibid.:27). And civil authorities,
undoubtedly pressured by parents, established strict rules for the Athenian
educational system...
“Among the ancient Greeks, whose written history does not begin until
patriarchy has reached a state of full development, we find the following sexual
organization: male supremacy...and along with this the wives leading an enslaved
 and wretched existence and figuring solely as birth machines. The male supremacy
of the Platonic era is entirely homosexual... The same principle governs the fascist
ideology of the male strata of Nazi leaders (Bluher, Roehm, etc.). For the fascists,
therefore, the return of natural sexuality is viewed as a sign of decadence,
laciviousness, lechery, and sexual filth... [T]he fascists ...affirm the most severe
form of patriarchy and actually reactivate the sexual life of the Platonic era in their
familial form of living... Rosenberg and Bluher [the leading Nazi ideologists]
recognize the state solely as a male state organized on a homosexual basis
(Reich:91ff).” (1029)

According to The Pink Swastika, the Greek armies conscripted young boys to satisfy the lust of
their homosexual warriors. Providing moral justification for this abduction and enslavement of
young boys was the myth of Ganymede:

“What remains most relevant to this study (and is confirmed by Plato) is that the
Greek military establishment enthusiastically embraced homosexuality. Here we
find the model for the new Hellenes — an ultramasculine, male supremacist,
homoerotic warrior cult. The armies of Thebes, Sparta and Crete were each
examples of this phenomenon (as are the modern Islamist terror groups). Cantarella
notes that the ancient historian, Plutarch of Chaeronea (50-120 A.D.) wrote of 'the
sacred battalion' of Thebans made up of 150 male homosexual pairs
(Cantarella:72), and of the legendary Spartan army, which inducted all twelve-year-
old boys into military service where they were 'entrusted to lovers chosen among
the best men of adult age.' Plutarch also reports of a Cretan military induction
ritual in which boys were abducted and sexually enslaved for a period of two
months by adult pederasts before receiving their 'military kit' (ibid.:7). This last
perversion undoubtedly inspired or was inspired by the Greek myth of Ganymede.
Author Jason Berry sheds some light on this apparent derivation:
“Certain gods practiced man-boy love as did the bi-sexual male aristocracy; the
armies of Thebes and Sparta were charged with homosexuality as a fire of the male
power drive. Pagans in the late [Roman] Empire adulated gods like Zeus, who
abducted and raped Ganymede — a living myth that one philosopher denounced for
influencing those men who ran 'marketplaces of immorality and...infamous resorts
for the young for every kind of corrupt pleasure' (Berry:200f).” (1029:Ch.1)

This account of Greek history may explain Paul's rather harsh view of the inhabitants of the
Greek island of Crete, as expressed in the New Testament. “One of themselves, even a prophet
of their own, said, The Cretians are alway liars, evil beasts, slow bellies.” (Titus 1:12)
Matthew Henry wrote in his commentary that the prophet was “Epimenides a Greek poet...their
poets were accounted, writers of divine oracles; these often witnessed against the vices of the
people: Aratus, Epimenides, and others among the Greeks; Horace, Juvenal, and Persius, among
the Latins: much smartness did they use against divers vices.” (772)

In an article titled “The Sexual Revolution During 600 B.C.-400 A.D.,” Princeton professor
William A. Percey III described the system of institutionalized pederasty in Greece established
by Cretan knights, along with related social disorders:

“In the Aegean crisis of overpopulation during the mid-seventh century B.C.,
Cretan sages evolved a system of interlocking institutions centered on delayed
marriage and pedagogical pederasty... This phenomenon (institutionalized
pederasty) can now be placed in time and space. Cretan knights first
 institutionalized pederasty, that is, they ordained a set of recognized legal and
social norms governing the relationship between the erastes (a 20-year-old lover)
and eromenos (his teenaged beloved) and its concomitants: seclusion of women,
nudity of males in gymnasia, 'herds' (agelai) of boys living in gangs in the wild,
postponement of marriage of males until 30, and men's messes held in 'men's
houses' (andreia).” (1076)

An interesting aside to this is that Chuck Missler's Malta Expedition spent a day on the island
of Crete. In fact, on this expedition, Christian tourists visited four cities of Crete that are
nowhere mentioned in Scripture but were, and are presently, hotbeds of pagan idolatry.:

Day 5 - Sunday, April 4

“Visit the island of Crete, where Paul sailed en route to Malta. On the island we
visit Knossos and Heraklion Town and then head south to see Festos and Matala.”
(1083)

Returning to our subject, in classical Greece, the demeaning of women and heterosexual
marriage was a direct result of the domination of the culture by a ruling homosexual elite. Some
Greek poets, notably Hesiod and Semonides, appear to be misogynists, regarding women as
little more than a curse. In the Greek social order, women were second-class citizens and
misogyny was especially directed toward married women, while temple prostitutes enjoyed
privileged status. For example, Hera, the wife of Zeus (Rom. Juno and Jupiter), was the
archetypal nagging wife, routinely depicted as jealous and vindictive because of her schemes to
secure the fidelity of her adulterous husband.

CLASSICAL REVIVAL?

"Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and
light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! (Is. 5:20)

Today we hear high sounding appeals for a revival of Classical Greek culture, notably from the
intellectual and academic communities. Even a new genre of Christian schools boasting of a
'classical education,' conveys the impression that Greek and Roman culture promoted the moral
values of Christianity. This perception of Greco-Roman culture is not even remotely close to
the ugly reality of classical culture. In his expose of the moral depravity of Greek society,
Michael P. Wright maintains that, as the myth of Ganymede was invented by pederasts to
justify perversion in ancient Greece, this fable is being revived by homosexual pedophiles in
our own day to remove all inhibitions to, and prohibitions of, pedophilia in the coming Age of
Aquarius.

“Among gay writers and activists today there is a troubling tendency to idealize
Hellenic Greece, a society which was heavily influenced, if not dominated, by a
male homosexual elite. For example, Michael Hattersley has authored a glowing
account about the 'gay king' Alexander and has described Hellenic Greece as 'the
most gay-friendly society in history.' 1 This requires critical scrutiny from scholars
and ethicists who do not share the pro-gay bias.
“Such scrutiny needs to begin with a brief mention of astrology and those who
believe in it. They are currently celebrating the idea that we are entering an
astrological 'New Age' which they call the 'Age of Aquarius.' In an astonishing
collapse of academic standards, this mystical notion has even been embraced by a
PhD dissertation accepted by the University of Oklahoma anthropology department.
 Within gay/lesbian culture, there is a special meaning attached to the 'New Age'
idea. It is rooted in the ancient Greek myth of Ganymede.
“An adequate understanding of the Ganymede story requires a brief look at the
general environment of ancient Greece, a society based upon misogyny, militarism,
imperialism, and slavery. A homosexual male elite also enjoyed a privileged
position in ancient Greece, but its members by no means conformed to the common
stereotype of effeminacy. On the contrary, they were especially effective in the use
of violence, and were consequently the best soldiers. Enjoying high status in a
militaristic society, they were able to institutionalize the practice of pederasty
(man-to-boy sex) and have their way with boys as young as twelve.
“Ganymede was believed to be a beautiful boy abducted by the bisexual God
Zeus and taken to Mount Olympius for a homosexual relationship. The abduction is
represented in The Rape of Ganymede a painting completed in 1700 by Anton
Domenico Gabbiani. As the story goes, Zeus' jealous wife Hera raised objections.
Bowing to her will, Zeus transformed the boy into the constellation Aquarius.
Writing for the Encyclopedie van de Mythologie, Mia Gibson states that 'Zeus'
torrid affair with Ganymede was a religious justification for homosexuality within
the Greek culture.'...
“In contemporary gay culture the 'Age of Aquarius' is an inside joke in
celebration of homosexual pedophilia..” (1062)

The Rape of Ganymede

by Anton Domenico Gabbiani:

"The beautiful boy is an androgyne, luminously masculine and feminine. He has male
muscle structure but a dewy girlishness. In Greece he inhabited the world of hard
masculine action. His body was on view... All eyes were on him... Light makes
beautiful boys incandescent. Divinity swoops down to ennoble them, like the eagle
falling upon Ganymede, who is kidnapped to Olympus...(Camille Paglia, Sexual
Personae, pp. 110, 118-120

The "beautiful boy" is attractive to pederasts because his masculinity is undeveloped, the pre-
adolescent stage being likened to androgyny. Homosexual relations guarantee that the boy will
never reach full manhood, but remain in an arrested stage of development with the passive traits
of a woman. The eagle capturing Ganymede in Anton Domenico Gabbiani's painting reminded
one Tolkein fan of Samwise Gamgee's infatuation with Frodo Baggins in the Lord of the Rings
trilogy which contained homoerotic nuances.

(From Tolkien's The Two Towers...)

“Sam looked at him. The early daylight was only just creeping down into the
shadows under the trees, but he saw his master's face very clearly, and his hands,
too, lying at rest on the ground beside him. He was reminded suddenly of Frodo as
he had lain, asleep in the house of Elrond, after his deadly wound. Then as he had
kept watch Sam had noticed that at times a light seemed to be shining faintly
within; but now the light was even clearer and stronger. Frodo's face was peaceful,
the marks of fear and care had left it; but it looked old, old and beautiful, as if the
chiselling of the shaping years was now revealed in many fine lines that had before
been hidden, though the identity of the face was not changed. Not that Sam
Gamgee put it that way to himself. He shook his head, as if finding words useless,
and murmured: 'I love him. He's like that, and sometimes it shines through,
somehow. But I love him, whether or no.' (Book 4, Chapter 4, 'Of Herbs and
Stewed Rabbit')”

The homoerotic tradition of Ganymede and Zeus was censored during the Middle Ages, except
as a warning against the sin of homosexuality. However, Ganymede was revived and flourished
during the Renaissance, especially by the Italian humanists, notably Michelangelo, Correggio,
Parmigianino, and Giulio Romano, all homosexuals. The Protestant Reformers, on the other
hand, took a dim view of mythology, homosexuality and nudity in art, and during the
Reformation the myth of Ganymede began to wane in popularity. The 17th century artist
Rembrandt (1606-69) boldly departed from the conventional wisdom by portraying the
disturbing realities of the classical myths with uncompromising realism. Rembrandt's “Rape of
Ganymede” demythologized the Greek fable by depicting Ganymede as a terrified toddler, as
opposed to the “beautiful boy” motif.
 “About the time of his move from Leiden, [Rembrandt] produced his most extensive group of
mythologies, beginning with 'Andromeda' (c. 1630), which stresses the pathos rather than either the
beauty or the heroism of the nude victim.... More typical...of Rembrandt's tendency to demythologize is
the way he renders such subjects as 'Rape of Europa' (c. 1632) or 'Rape of Ganymede' (1635).... The
latter scene is even more prosaic, showing a mewling toddler instead of the seductively beauteous youth
of legend. Not only is the eagle elevating the child upward against a leaden-gray sky but also the
frightened boy urinates reflexively in his horror. The artist seems almost to have taken pains to violate
conventions of beauty and decorum in such a work, as if to engage in persiflage rather than homage to
the classical heritage. Scholars still debate whether this work holds Neoplatonic significance as a
mythic analogue to the union of the Christian soul with the divine or whether its irreverence lies closer
to the homophilic traditions of the subject.” (1070) (Italics added)

Beyond persiflage, was Rembrandt conveying a hidden message in his strange painting? Let us
attempt some esoteric analysis of this work of art.

Ancient pagans depicted Lucifer as the phoenix or eagle who was cast down from heaven in
flames, but will rise again. In her book Masonic and Occult Symbols Illustrated, Dr. Cathy
Burns elucidated the symbolism of the eagle as the Bird of Jove or Jupiter, which is a disguise
for Lucifer.

“...the Egyptians and Phoenicians believed that the phoenix was the
representation of a god who 'rose to heaven in the form of a morning star, like
Lucifer, after his fire-immolation of death and rebirth. One former witch explains:
“'...Most occultists believe that the Phoenix is a symbol of Lucifer who was
cast down in flames and who (they think) will one day rise triumphant....
“The eagle (also called the Bird of Jove) is frequently identified with the
phoenix. As is well known, the eagle is used extensively in Masonry. In a Masonic
Bible was the question: 'What is the symbolism of the Eagle in Freemasonry?' The
answer given was: 'The eagle has been a symbol among the different peoples of the
world from time immemorial. In Egypt, Greece, and Persia it was sacred to the sun;
among pagans it was the emblem of Jupiter; among the Druids it was the symbol
of their supreme god.'” (39:122-24)

Since the eagle is an occult emblem of Jupiter, who is Lucifer, it seems reasonable to postulate
that the Renaissance paintings of Zeus (Jupiter) as an eagle are depicting Lucifer rising from
the ashes of defeat and his ascent into heaven, where he intends to take the place of God. Isaiah
prophetically foretold Lucifer's attempted usurpation of God's throne and his ultimate demise—
the reality of which New Ager's are in denial:

For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne
above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the
sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the
most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit. They that
see thee shall narrowly look upon thee, and consider thee, saying, Is this the man
that made the earth to tremble, that did shake kingdoms; That made the world as a
wilderness, and destroyed the cities thereof; that opened not the house of his
prisoners? Isaiah 14:13-17

In the Renaissance paintings of Ganymede, the eagle (Jupiter) carries the “beautiful boy”
toward the sky to Mount Olympus, the home of the Greek gods. In Rembrandt's version, the
victimized boy appears to be urinating, a common reaction in extreme fear. Surely this
masterpiece is a parody of the Greek myth, and also mocks the astrological interpretation of
Aquarius, the Water-Pourer. Given that the false “Gospel in the Stars” proponents interpret
 Aquarius as the “outpouring” of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, Rembrandt may have been
portraying an outpouring of demonic energy over the earth in a sort of Satanic Pentecost.
Pursuing this line of reasoning, Rembrandt may have been making a bold statement about
occult illumination, likening the future Satanic Pentecost to the secretion of the phallus, the
narcissistic obsession of occultists. Of interest, one encyclopedia notes that during the last two
decades of his life Rembrandt withdrew from society and was no longer fashionable. Perchance
his rejection was a consequence of defying the artistic establishment which had its roots firmly
in the occult.

The Encyclopedia Britannica states that some scholars (perhaps anxious to evade the pedophilic
implications) spiritualized Rembrandt's Ganymede. “Scholars still debate whether this work
holds Neoplatonic significance as a mythic analogue to the union of the Christian soul with the
divine or whether its irreverence lies closer to the homophilic traditions of the subject.” (1070)
Whatever Rembrandt's intent, the myth of Ganymede is about the Age of Aquarius, at which
time practitioners of the occult traditions, which incorporate all manner of sexual perversion,
will prevail over Biblical morality.

EN ROUTE TO INSTITUTIONALIZED PEDERASTY

Another song from the Broadway musical, Hair, celebrated assorted forms of sodomy,
including pederasty:

SODOMY

Sodomy
Fellatio
Cunnilingus
Pederasty

Father, why do these words sound so nasty?

Masturbation
Can be fun
Join the holy orgy
Kama Sutra
Everyone! (1065)

Pederasty is defined by Lively and Abrams in The Pink Swastika as man-boy sex:

“A pederast is defined as a physically mature man who engages in or desires to

engage in sex with boys around the age of puberty, as opposed to a pedophile, who
targets both male and female prepubescent children and/or pubertal girls. (Pederast
derives from the Greek paed, meaning boy, and erastis, meaning lover). Self-
defined ‘boy-lovers’ who have formed ‘children's rights’ organizations such as the
North American Man/Boy Love Association (NAMBLA) in this country, and who
formed the Gemeinschaft der Eigenen in Germany, generally seem to focus their
sexual attentions on boys roughly between the ages of 8 and 18 years, with an
apparent preference for boys about 12 years old.” (1029:iii)

Homosexual organizations such as NAMBLA are working to legalize pedophilia in the United
States in the same way that pederasty was institutionalized in ancient Greece. How this is being
accomplished is disclosed in the article "When Sexual Addiction Meets Children: The
Normalization of Pedophilia and How the Church Should Respond" by Mark Hartzell and
David Longacre:

The Last Taboo ?

"Pedophilia. We are rightly repulsed by the subject, but it must be addressed.

The Church must speak pointedly and biblically into the darkness, or the darkness
will spread. We’ve seen it before. Many people are aware that 1973 was the year
that the bleak Roe v. Wade decision altered the landscape of how our country treats
unborn children. But another critical decision was made in 1973— and its impact is
also ringing through our culture 25 years later. In 1973, after repeated assaults by
pro-gay activists, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) removed
homosexuality from its list of mental disorders. Homosexuality was no longer a
treatable illness, but to be considered normal and healthy. And now the mental
health gurus seem to be taking the next step. According to the APA’s latest
diagnostic manual, the standard for mental health workers worldwide, a person
should not be considered to have a psychological disorder simply because he
molests children. It’s only a problem if the 'fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors
cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other
important areas of functioning.' Thus the lack of protection for children in our
culture is deepening, and the doorway is widening to the normalization of
pedophilia and the sexual abuse of the least powerful members of society. And the
Church must rise from sleeping in the light to battle this spreading darkness.
"In March of 1999, radio pop psychologist Laura Schlessinger, a.k.a. ‘Dr. Laura’
to her vast audience, blew the whistle on the American Psychological Association
for an article published in its Psychological Bulletin late in 1998. The authors, 2 out
of 3 of them from Philadelphia, are educators who re-examined 59 previous studies
on how college students coped with sexual abuse. They concluded that ‘the vast
majority of both men and women reported no negative sexual effects from their
child sexual-abuse experiences.’ As long as the sexual contact was not ‘coerced’
and was ‘enjoyed’, sex between children and adults may not be harmful at all.
Further, ‘Classifying a behavior as abuse simply because it is generally viewed as
immoral or defined as illegal is problematic.’ Therefore we should avoid negative
terms like ‘molestation’ and ‘victims’, so that ‘a willing encounter’ would be
labeled simply ‘adult-child sex,’ a value-neutral term.
"But the insistence on value-neutral terminology for sexual abuse is not neutral
at all, but advances the ideology that children are fair game for sexual predators. To
speak of ‘willing’, ‘non-coerced,’ and ‘enjoyable’ sexual encounters between
children and adults ignores the very nature of seduction. As Gene Edward Veith
pointed out in a WORLD magazine article, statutory rape laws, though seldom
enforced today, recognize that ‘it is impossible for a minor, being below the age of
consent, to consent. An adult who has sex with a minor is therefore committing
rape.’ Like Gene Veith and Dr. Laura, we must not be deceived by the haze of
doublespeak about things like ‘male intergenerational intimacy’ when severe
emotional, spiritual, and physical damage is being done under such nice labels
produced by the intellectual elite of our day." (1074)

The protests of conservatives notwithstanding, in 2003 an allegedly ‘conservative’ U.S.

Supreme Court voted to overturn all laws against homosexual sodomy. The Court's decision
was heavily weighted on prior decisions, not by the Supreme Court of the U.S. (SCOTUS), but
by the European Court of Human Rights and the views of the international community!

SCOTUS Supports Sodomy

June 26, 2003

Sodomy, fellatio, cunnilingus, pederasty

Father, why do these words sound so nasty?

Just days before

This year’s celebration of
The anniversary of
The Stonewall Rebellion

The Supreme Court rules

In favor of Sodomy
Decisively
Six out of Nine. [6/9].

Well, not exactly.

Only five voted
To completely overturn
All laws against Sodomy.

Sandra Day still supports

Those which treat
Everyone equally.

Rehnquist, Scalia and Thomas

Formed the dissent.
Giving their support
For any and all
Laws against homos.

But if a 5-4 decision

Was enough to make a President
It is certainly enough
For all to finally feel
Safe and secure
In the privacy
Of their own bedrooms.

Masturbation can be fun

Join the holy orgy, Kama sutra, everyone….

--John Newmark
(lyrics in italics from musical, Hair)

Fronts for the legalization of pederasty often pose as religious organizations:

Gay Church Celebrates Ganymede Myth

"More approval for sexual abuse of male children is indicated by a gay 'church'
 calling itself the Church of Zeus and Ganymede. At the website a spokesman for
this group has written that the church 'celebrates loving relationships' in the model
of Zeus and Ganymede. He also expresses the view that male children should not
be believed when they complain to authorities about being sexually molested by
older homosexuals. He continued:

"The CZG asserts that loving relationships between males, regardless

of their ages, are a gift of the Almighty. Unfortunately, in many parts
of the world, such relationships may be held suspect and may be
dangerous. Sometimes a younger male is intimidated by police or
others into betraying his older friend and giving false testimony."
(1062)
Warning!

"There is a group calling itself 'The Church of Zeus and Ganymede'. The only thing
that is Hellenic about this group, is its name. There is nothing religious about it,
whatsoever. Read its literature anywhere beyond the opening blurb, and cut through
the manipulative rhetoric, and you will soon discover that its 'religion' is nothing
more than a front for pedophilia. The Church of Zeus and Ganymede is a so-called
'boy lovers' group. Be sure to stay away from these people and, more importantly,
make sure that your children stay away from them."

The Center For American Cultural Renewal furnishes disturbing evidence that the movement to
legalize pedophilia is succeeding and that homosexuals are winning the culture war:

"Pedophile organizations such as NAMBLA advocate the overturning to all laws

regulating sex between adults and children."

"NAMBLA states, 'We believe sex is good and wholesome…. We encourage and
support young people in their rebellions against the anti-sexual restrictions imposed
upon them by adults - parents, police, "moral" crusaders, the church, the law, and
the state.'"

"NAMBLA’ mission statement says the group ‘” supports the rights of all people to
engage in consensual relations and we oppose laws which destroy loving
relationships merely on the basis of the age of the participants.’” (Julie Foster,
“Pedophile lawsuit goes class-action?” WorldNetDaily.com, July 25, 2000)

"Those who propose the legitimization of adult-child sex frame their cause as a
moral crusade for the 'freedom of choice' and the 'rights' of children. They allege
that children freely desire and willingly consent to have sex with adults, and are
only prevented from doing so by oppressive societal condemnation." (Timothy J.
Dailey, Ph.D., "Harming the Little Ones: the Effects of Pedophilia on Children."
Insight. Family Research Council.)

"The Age Taboo: Gay Male Sexuality, Power and Consent was published by Alyson
Publications, one of the nation's largest homosexual publishing companies. It
contains numerous essays on 'man/boy love,' including one written by NAMBLA
entitled, 'The Case for abolishing Age of Consent Laws.'" (Louis P. Sheldon,
'Pedophilia: The Next Civil Right?' Traditional Values Coalition, Jan. 9, 2001.
www.traditionalvalues.org)
 "And in Vermont last year [2001] Senator Cheryl Hooker introduced a bill to lower
the age of consent for children to 14, if they had sex with an older teen."

KING OF PEDOPHILES

Alice Bailey bluntly stated, "The Plan is concerned with rebuilding mankind..." (148:145) In the
Age of Aquarius, physical transformation, in the likeness of the androgynous Christ, will
accompany spiritual transformation: "Barbara Marx Hubbard viewed December 31, 1986, as a
'Planetary Pentecost', where the participants would have the powers of Christ to heal, resurrect
the dead, and even transform their physical bodies as Christ transformed his." (233:115) Or, as
J.S.M. Ward stated in Freemasonry and the Ancient Gods:

"The Christ came when the point of the vernal equinox was in the new sign Pisces
and that sign ushered in the new dispensation and our modern world ...
A new sign draws nigh ... Aquarius, the sign of the perfected man ... This means
a new dispensation..." (47:342-44)

Michael Jackson is a living specimen of the experimental New Man, an androgynous

homosexual pedophile. Like Jackson (who divorced one wife and used the other merely as a
baby provider) the condition of androgyny will supposedly be perfected in the person of the
Antichrist who will be regarded as the New Man. As prophesied in Daniel 11:37, “Neither shall
he regard...the desire of women...” The “King of Pop” exhibits not a few proclivities of the
“king of the gods”— Zeus/Jupiter:
 Feb 06, 2003
"Michael Jackson's controversial revelations about sharing his bed with children
prompted a California lawyer on Wednesday to call for an investigation into life at
the King of Pop's Neverland ranch. Jackson, 44, admitted in a bizarre documentary
broadcast in Britain on Monday, that he had slept in bed with 'Home Alone' star
Macaulay Culkin and his siblings, and he defended sharing his bedroom with a 12
year-old boy called Gavin. Why can't you share your bed? The most loving thing to
do, is to share your bed with someone,' said Jackson, when pressed by his
interviewer about whether his behaviour was appropriate." (1078)

Michael Jackson is not just your average pedophile. Note the Merovingian names of
Jackson's children.

"How they met Michael Jackson, is actually a simple story. The whole family was
gathered in Los Angeles and Michael called them up and invited them all to his ranch.
He would always do this when any of them were in town. He always has interesting
guests...
"Macaulay Culkin and Elizabeth Taylor are God-parents of both Michael Jackson's
children. Prince Michael Jackson Jr. (born February 13, 1997), and Paris Katherine
Michael Jackson (born April 3, 1998)." (1079)
Prince Michael Jackson I, Paris Katherine Michael Jackson and Prince Michael II always appear
in public wearing masks. The masks are also worn during “sacred marriage” rites (incest)
between siblings in the perverted tradition of the Merovingian dynasty. (See: Heeding Bible
Prophecy: Sacred Marriage)

"Jackson also allowed the British crew to film him with his own three children:
5-year-old Prince Michael I (who is known as Prince), 4-year-old Paris, and his
infant son Prince Michael II, the baby he notoriously dangled from the balcony of
a Berlin hotel in November.
"All three children's faces were covered during filming, the two older ones in
feathered masks, the baby in a green veil. Jackson told the filmmakers he never lets
his children be seen in public without masks, in order to conceal their identity.
"Prince and Paris were born during Jackson's three-year marriage to his
dermatology nurse, Debbie Rowe. The children live with Jackson at Neverland, his
3,000-acre ranch three hours north of Los Angeles and do not see their mother.
According to Bashir, 5-year-old Prince told him firmly, 'I haven't got a mommy.'"
"Jackson said Rowe prefers that they live with him. He said that when they wed
in 1996, she understood that he wanted children from the marriage. 'I used to walk
around holding baby dolls ... because I wanted children so badly,' Jackson said,
adding that Rowe wanted to bear children for him 'as a present.' It was a 'lovely
gesture,' he said. Rowe was seven months pregnant when they wed." (1099)

In December of 2003, formal charges of child-molestation were filed against Michael Jackson.
In April of 2004, Jackson was indicted by a grand jury on four counts of child molestation, four
counts of administering an intoxicating agent, one count of attempted child molestation and one
count of conspiracy to commit child abduction, false imprisonment and extortion. Will Michael
Jackson be cleared of these charges of pedophilia in spite of the mounting evidence of his guilt?
More importantly, will the Jackson trial establish a legal precedent for the legalization of
pedophilia? We expect this will be the case since there is a global agenda in view. Note that in
the early days of the court trial, which began in February of 2005, Jackson was giving his
supporters the victory signal.
 UPDATE

THE GRAIL-KING

It is becoming progressively evident that the entertainment industry is teeming with homosexual
pedophiles. In 1995, one popular rock group, the Goo Goo Dolls, received rave reviews from teens
for their album, "A Boy Named Goo" which displayed the very disturbing cover below. “Goo Goo
Dolls” may be an esoteric allusion to the Age of Aquarius, whose Water-jar was Gu in the
Chaldean language. No wonder that “In contemporary gay culture the ‘Age of Aquarius’ is an
inside joke in celebration of homosexual pedophilia.” (1062)

In Greek mythology, Zeus turned Ganymede into the constellation Aquarius, the “Water-Pourer.”
One New Age website asks the loaded question...

Is Aquarius’ Urn {Gu} the Grail?

"In practically all countries of the world, the story of the great flood is told in some version
or another. Ancient mythology personified this event in Aquarius; it was he that poured out
the waters that nearly terminated life on Earth... Aquarius is the central figure of that region
of the sky often referred to as 'The Sea'... The Babylonians called the area 'the Sea', there
Aquarius was associated with the 11th month Shabatu, the Curse Rain, January-February;
and the Epic of Creation has an account of the Deluge in its 11th book, corresponding to
this the 11th constellation; each of its other books numerically coinciding with the other
zodiacal signs. In that country its Urn seems to have been known as Gu, a Water-jar over
flowing, the Akkadian Ku-ur-ku, the 'Seat of the Flowing Waters'; and it was Ramman or
Rammanu, the 'God of the Storm', the still earlier Imma, shown pouring water from a vase,
the god, however, frequently being omitted." (The Constellations: Aquarius)

In the Egyptian sky chart, Aquarius is pouring water on a fish, which D. James Kennedy assures
his Christian readers represents the Church of Jesus Christ.

“We come now to the subject of Aquarius, The Water-Bearer, the 'Pourer Forth of
Water.' Notice on the planisphere, or sky chart, on the left-hand side is a figure of a
mighty man holding a great urn upon his shoulder from which is being poured forth a
copious stream flowing both to the east and to the west and finally flowing into the
mouth or over the body of a fish... Aquarius is the one who pours out the water upon
Piscus Australis, The Southern Fish. Water, of course, is a great symbol of the Holy
Spirit which God promised to pour out upon the earth...
“...Aquarius, The Water-Bearer, who is pouring out the water of His Holy Spirit
upon the living fish (the people of God)...is a great picture of the outpouring of the
Holy Spirit upon the Church of Jesus Christ.” (872:64)

Ancient Egyptians and the Constellations states, however, that this fish stands for the Fisher-
King, who will be God in the Age of Aquarius!
 “The Water Bearer is the herald of the New Age of Aquarius. It is he who
figuratively sheds the first drops of water of the New Age from his urn. However
the Water Bearer is not of human form as is generally supposed. The Water Bearer
is, quite logically, a fish... God in the Age of Aquarius will be a Super Giant Fish;
the Fisher King.” (903:Pt.18)

Fisher-King??? Revelation 13 opens with the apostle's vision of a 'beast rising out of the sea':
"And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rising out of the sea, having seven
heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of
blasphemy." (Rev.31:) Recall that the Bistea Neptunis was a mysterious sea beast that was
believed to be “ever incarnate in the dynasty of ancient kings” and whose symbol was a fish.
Also, that the Merovingian Fisher-Kings (who falsely claim to be descendants of Jesus Christ)
are descendants of demons! References to the Bistea Neptunis or sea serpent in relation to the
Fisher-Kings are found in Laurence Gardner's various works, such as Bloodline of the Holy
Grail and Starfire: Gold of the Gods:

"Despite the carefully listed genealogies of his time, the heritage of Meroveus
was strangely obscured in the monastic annals. Although the rightful son of
Clodion, he was nonetheless said by the historian Priscus to have been sired by an
arcane sea creature, the Bistea Neptunis...
"The Sicambrian Franks, from whose female line the Merovingians emerged
were associated with Grecian Arcadia before migrating to the Rhineland. As we
have seen, they called themselves the Newmage — 'People of the New Covenant',
just as the Essenes of Qumran had once been known. It was the Arcadian legacy
that was responsible for the mysterious sea beast — the Bistea Neptunis — as
symbolically defined in the Merovingian ancestry. The relevant sea-lord was King
Pallas, a god of old Arcadia... The immortal sea-lord was said to be 'ever-incarnate
in a dynasty of ancient kings' whose symbol was a fish - as was the traditional
symbol of Jesus.” (29:166,175)

"In pictorial representation, the Messianic Dragon bore little relation to the winged,
fire-breathing beast of later Western mythology. It was, in essence, a large-jawed
serpent with four legs, very much like a crocodile or a monitor. This was the
Sacred Messeh whose name was 'Draco.' Draco was a divine emblem of the
Egyptian pharaohs, a symbol of the Egyptian Therapeutate, of the Essenes of
Qumran, and was the Bistea Neptunis (the sea serpent) of the descendant
Merovingian Fisher-Kings in Europe.” (612:Part I)

“Sir Laurence Gardner’s 'Grail Bloodline' trilogy has quite rightly stepped
beyond the bounds of the Bible to trace the genesis of the Grail and Fisher Kings
from Oannes/Enki/Dagon/Ea, Cain, David and Jesus to Prince Michael of Scotland.
He presents the case that the Union of European Princes want Scotland to reinstate
the heir to the Fisher King, Grail King, Royal House of Stewart line back on the
throne as a king who has his people at heart...
“There is an ever-increasing number of disenchanted Christians who, having
already rejected the traditional Christian doctrines and dogmas, can be open to the
existence of a real Gnosis (Knowledge of the Mysteries). There is no quick fix.
The triumph of the individual can come only through that knowledge. An institute
of comparative myth and religion that embraces this concept can gradually change
the deep wounds in the human psyche. A Reunion of the Fisher Kings can make it
 possible!” (1077)

In his book, Guardians of the Grail, J.R. Church identified Ganymede as a prince of the
Merovingian bloodline. Although Mr. Church artfully dodged the issue of homosexual
pedophilia in this Greek myth, the exoteric version being that Ganymede was abducted to be the
Olympian cupbearer, he does mention that “cupbearer” may be an esoteric allusion to the Holy
Grail. We may infer from this that, as the consort of Zeus, Ganymede became the Grail King.

“According to the ancient Greek treatise, THE ILIAD, by Homer, the founder of
Troy was named Dar-dan-us. The name is strikingly familiar. It contains the name
of Dan! It was said that Dardanus was the son of Zeus. Dardanus had a son named
Erichthonius, who had a son named Tros, who was the namesake of the ancient
Trojans and of their capital city, Troy.
“Tros had three sons, Ilus, Ganymede, and Assaracus. Priam, the reigning king
of the Trojans, was of the line of Ilus. Aeneas, founder of the Roman Empire, was a
prince of the royal house of Assaracus. Ganymede was the great-grandson of
Dardanus, the founder of Troy. According to Homer's ILIAD (Book V), Zeus
kidnapped the prince, Ganymede. Zeus wanted Ganymede to be a special cup-
bearer to the gods (which may be a clue to the origin of the legend of the so-called
Holy Grail).
“The ILIAD does not relate how Zeus carried off Ganymede, but there is an
ancient Roman mosaic showing Ganymede, the Trojan prince, being carried off by
Zeus, who had taken the form of an eagle! Here is a possible clue to connect the
progenitors of the ancient Trojans with the tribe of Dan, who had adopted the eagle
as their insignia.
“Zeus was sometimes pictured as an eagle, but at other times he was pictured as
a serpent to whom offerings of honey were made. Here appears yet another clue.
We have the symbol of a snake (the first insignia of Dan) to whom offerings of
honey were made! The honey could be a reference to the bees in Samson's riddle
— again, it smacks of the tribe of Dan.
“According to Greek mythology, Zeus was the son of Cronus, the sun god. Zeus
was born in Arcadia, near the capital city of the Spartans. When he reached
manhood he overthrew his father Cronus and won the universe. He then divided it
with his brothers according to lots: Hades drew the nether world, Poseidon the sea
and the waters, and Zeus the heavens.” (127:103-4)

HOMO-OCCULTISM

The seemingly unrelated phenomena of occult illumination and sexual perversion are, in reality,
associated behaviors in the gnostic quest for transformation. Throughout history, paganism and
sexual sin have been bedfellows and co-conspirators in Satan's warfare against the human race.
Pantheism is the belief that the “divine energy” resides in all of nature. Sexual perversion,
euphemistically called “sacred sex,” is viewed as the catalyst to the dissolving of the ego and
union with the “divine energy.” As Edith Starr Miller exclaimed in Occult Theocrasy:
“Illumination, alias Kundalini, alias Serpent power, alias Electro-magnetic force, alias the Sex
force, etc.!” (143: 42)

The sexual revolution of the 1960s was deeply rooted in a revival of paganism which only later
came out of the closet. There is a logical connection between the two movements. The common
denominator of omni-sexuality and paganism is "monism," the belief that one principle defines
and unites all of reality. If all is one, humanity is one with the divine and there are no
boundaries except those which man imposes on himself and others. The secret doctrine is
monistic pantheism: the belief that there are no boundaries in the universe, that boundaries are
illusions from which man must be liberated through enlightenment or illumination.

“Schopenhauer justly remarks: Pantheism is only a polite form of atheism. The

truth of pantheism lies in its destruction of the dualist antithesis of God and the
world, in its recognition that the world exists in virtue of its own inherent forces.
The maxim of the pantheist, 'God and the world are one,' is merely a polite way of
giving the Lord God his conge [dismissal].” (1081)

In his book, Arcadia, “[Peter] Dawkins asserts that the Golden Age, ruled over by Pan and
Arcadia, is synonymous with Rosicrucian enlightenment, also thought to be the 'Age of
Aquarius.'” (335) Pan, the Great God of Arcadia, is Pales, the hermaphrodite god of nature, the
phallic god of lust, the beast of the cosmic sea. “In fact [the15th Tarot] card represents Pan, the
very old Nature-God of merriment, sensuality, fertility and life-force. Pan has the appearance of
a half-man, half-goat. The goat is related to Capricorn and Saturn.” (346)

Which brings us once again to the Broadway musical Hair and the lyrics of Sodomy:

Sodomy
Fellatio
Cunnilingus
Pederasty

Father, why do these words sound so nasty?

Masturbation
Can be fun
Join the holy orgy
Kama Sutra
Everyone! (1065)

“Kama Sutra” is a reference to Hinduism's oldest sex manual. “Kama” means pleasure or
sensual desire and is the name of the Indian god that represents the sexual nature in man.
“Sutra” means short books or aphorisms.

According to The Encyclopedia of Religion, occultists believe that “sacred sex” (incest)
between the Goddess and the Christ produces a “divine androgyne”:

“To the German Romantics the androgyne was the perfect, 'total' human being of
the future. J. W. Ritter (1776-1810), a well known doctor and friend of Novalis,
sketched in his Nachlass eines jungen Physikers a whole philosophy of the
androgyne. For Ritter the man of the future would be, like Christ, an
androgyne. 'Eve,' he wrote 'was engendered by man without the aid of woman;
Christ was engendered by woman without the aid of man; the androgyne will be
born of the two. But the husband and wife will be fused together in a single flesh.'
The body that is to be born will then be immortal.” (146:279)

For this reason, Eugene Vintras, a famous 19th century heresiarch who believed he was the
reincarnation of Elijah, elevated sexual rites to the level of a sacrament. Using the same
terminology as Prophecy Central to describe the upcoming New Age, “Vintras preached the
advent of the Age of the Spirit, long prophesied by Joachim of Flora, which would coincide
with the redemption wrought by the Virgin Mediatrix and her predestined priestesses. In this
new dispensation, the greatest sacrament was the sexual act, through which the original
androgyny would be restored.” (272:12)

The rationale behind androgyny is that man must be conformed to image of Christ who is the
androgynous Adam Kadmon. H.P. Blavatsky expressed the occult Trinity as a male and a
female who gave birth to a divine androgyne. "According to [Franz von] Baader, the androgyne
had existed at the beginning and will be again at the end of time. Thanks to Christ, man will
again become an androgyne, like the angels." (146:279, "Androgyne")

The Six-Pointed Star, which all mankind will be require to receive as the mark of the beast, is
an occult symbol of the union of male and female to create an androgyne. During the Luciferic
Initiation, Lucifer posing as the Holy Spirit and demons posing as God's angels will administer
the mark of the beast—in the form of an occult cross—on the foreheads of apostate Christians.
Just how the Church is being conditioned for this deception is exposed in Bill Randles' book,
Weighed and Found Wanting:

"In a service that was actually led by Wes Campbell, Marc DuPont felt led to 'move
in the prophetic,' calling selected men forward to be 'ambassadors for the Kingdom
of God' to other pastors and leaders in the Body of Christ because 'it's not a
Vineyard message it's a kingdom message, what God is doing.'

"'Many leaders are going to be greatly shaken, I think that means not
just theologically, but as already happening, many are being shaken in
the spirit, it's happening quickly, talk about paradigm shifts, many
people are just losing their paradigms and that's what needs to happen
... I believe God wants to put a mark on many of you, even right
now ... He wants to put a mark upon you, I believe the Lord is going
to start challenging you to contact other pastors and leaders that you've
had relationship with in the past where maybe there's been rocky
turmoil things ... God's going to want to use some of you to be
ambassadors for what He's doing here, because He's wanting this to go
to other churches ... I believe the Lord is going to put a mark on some
of you and He's going to put a burden within you for some other
pastors, Lutheran, Baptist, whatever ... We're going to, uh, I see in the
Spirit the angel, an angel, I don't know if it's the angel of the Lord, but
angels are going to come and the Holy Spirit is going to put a cross
on some of you...'

"I spoke enough of DuPont here and in another place to let you know enough about
him. I'll close with a little comment on his 'mystical' ministry practices. On a tape
featuring Wes Campbell, Marc is called forward to pray for a few of the pastors. In
the ministry time, Marc proclaims that he is 'placing a mark' on them,
prophetically!" - 848

Other false teachers on the Christian scene subtly preach the concept of androgyny as the path
to becoming like God. "Tony Campolo...says that Christ dwells in everyone whether they know
it or not. In a recent book, in a chapter titled 'Embracing the Feminine Side of God', Campolo
declares: There is that feminine side of me that must be recovered and strengthened if I am to
be like Christ.." (149:249) With Bible scholars now willing to rethink the gender of God,
homosexual theology appears to have a bright future.

From remote antiquity, pagans have viewed homosexual rites as symbolic androgyny and
conducted homosexual and incestuous rites to exalt this abnormal condition to the level of the
divine. In The Phallus: Sacred Symbol of Male Creative Power, Danilou wrote: "The goal
toward which the human species should aim is the progressive reintegration of the sexes until
androgyny is obtained. The evolved being tends toward bisexuality." (102:113) In her book,
Hidden Secrets of the Eastern Star, Dr. Cathy Burns exposed the Knights Templar as a
homosexual warrior cult whose rites incorporated sodomy and pederasty:

"In the book entitled The Guilt of the Templars, we are told that 'the Knights
Templar's confessions show them to have been basically homosexual warrior
order...' Other charges were that the Knights Templar participated in black magic
and pederasty (anal intercourse, usually with a boy). They practiced 'phallicism or
sex-worship and Satanism and venerated 'The Baphomet,' the idol of the
Luciferians. The crime of sodomy was a rite of Templar initiation." (625:104)

The Teutonic Knights were a German branch of the Knights Templars. We saw in the chapter
on Virgo that Bernard of Clairvaux, who helped to found and establish the Templar Order, also
founded the Cistercian Order of monks, which operated as a Merovingian front within the
Roman Catholic Church. The Knights Templars and the Teutonic Knights were the template
upon which a homosexual German order was formed which influenced the development of
Hitler and his Nazi Party. The Ordo Novi Templi was established by a 'former' Cistercian monk,
Jorg Lanz von Liebenfels, who was known as a homosexual, the perversion which characterized
the Knights Templars. These little-known facts of history are amply documented in The Pink
Swastika:

“If any occultist can be said to have had more influence on Hitler and the Nazis
than List it would be Jorg Lanz von Liebenfels (1874-1954). Lanz was a former
Cistercian Monk who had been thrown out of the order 'for carnal and worldly
desires' (Sklar:19). Since the Cistercian Order was a closed, all-male monastery, it
is assumed that Lanz's indiscretions were of a homosexual nature. German writer
Friedrich Buchmayr noted the following about Lanz
“[F]ollowing his ordination in 1898, as a priest, Lanz was put to use as a teacher
of choir boys. In April of 1899, the 24-year-old left the order, stating his reason for
this step as 'increasing nervousness' and 'irritation.' In the Chapter Book his
departure was accounted to 'carnal loves.'...
“...After being expelled from the monastery, Lanz formed his own occultic order
called the Ordo Novi Templi or the Order of the New Temple (ONT). The ONT
was related to the Ordo Templi Orientis or Order of the Temple of the East, which,
like List’s organization, practiced tantric sexual rituals (Howard:91).
“Hitler was aware that Lanz was a homosexual...
“Both List’s and Lanz’ organizations were modeled on the Teutonic Knights
and the Knights Templars, militaristic monastic orders founded in 1118 A.D. to
fight in the Crusades (Goodrick-Clarke:60). Following the crusades, the Templars
returned to Europe, but did not demobilize. Instead the members established
monasteries which became centers of trade and influence. In the early 1300s the
Knights Templars were condemned by Pope Innocent III for homosexual perversion
and occultic practices. They were brought to trial and disbanded by King Philip the
Fair of France. Igra writes,
“[Homosexuality’s] morbid history in the German blood dates from the time of
 the Teutonic Knights...Their personal lives were as infamous as the more widely
publicized infamies of their brother Knights, the Templars. These latter became so
corrupt that they raised the practice of their cardinal vice [homosexuality] into a
religious cult... There were innumerable public trials where the most revolting
details were brought to light (Igra:18).” (1029:Ch.1)

During the Tribulation period, the Antichrist will place in the Temple of Jerusalem a phallic
symbol which Scripture calls the “abomination that causes desolation.” And according to
Revelation 13:14-15, the False Prophet will require every person to worship the image of the
beast, which will also be a phallic symbol. In The Pink Swastika, Scott Lively and Kevin
Abrams cited a precedent for the coming Abomination of Desolation in the Temple of
Jerusalem. In this incident, which occurred in 167 B.C., the god Zeus took the form of an
obelisk, a phallic symbol.

“In his article 'Homosexuality and the Maccabean Revolt,' Catholic scholar Patrick
G. D. Riley also identifies homosexuality as the focal point of conflict between the
Jews and the Greeks... The tensions which led to the Jewish revolt were
exacerbated when the Jewish high priest, a Hellenist himself, offered a sacrifice to
Heracles (Hercules), who was a Greek symbol of homosexuality. Riley adds, 'The
Jewish temple itself became the scene of pagan sacrificial meals and sexual orgies
[including homosexuality].' The final insult (for which Antiochus is identified in
the Bible as the archetype of the antichrist) 'was the installation in the temple of a
pagan symbol, possibly a representation of Zeus [Baal], called by a sardonic pun
‘the abomination of desolation” (Riley.:16).” (1029:Ch.1)

Israel had learned the consequences of idolatry during her 70-year captivity in Babylon. In stark
contrast to the commands of the Mosaic Law, which bound the nation of Israel, The
Encyclopedia of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer Culture boasts that “Society as
organized within the Greek polis was indeed phallocentric phallocentric. The virile member was
highly privileged—if, that is, it belonged to a freeborn adult, for his sexual hegemony extended
over eromenoi [his boy lovers] and wife, as also over slaves and prostitutes. [Phallocentric
(penis-centered) is a recently coined term with pejorative overtones; it refers to the cultural and
social organization of the world fostered by the patriarchy.]” (1072)

The Encyclopedia of Religion clarifies precisely what is meant by worship of the phallus: “...the
Dutch authority Jan van Baal goes so far as to refer to homosexuality as the 'dark secret' of a
phallic religion.” (146:449, 'Homosexuality') Based on Bible prophecy and occult history, we are
compelled to draw the following conclusions as to the nature of the Tribulation period:

(1) The religious rites imposed on humanity by the Antichrist and False Prophet
will be of a phallic nature.
(2) The Luciferic Initiation will be a homosexual orgy.
(3) The Age of Aquarius will be the pedophiles' dream come true.

NOTES:

"The Age of Aquarius dawns at 6:48am on December 21st 2012.

"However for the original and intended purpose of the water symbolism we need
to refer back to the mythology of the Ancient Egyptians, the architects of the
constellations. In their Creation Myth the origin of the universe was explained in
terms of a primordial ocean called Nun. Out of this ocean was born the primeval
hill called Nu. The Tree of Life was the plant which came from Nu; its mother was
Nut, the heavens. In this quadrant of the heavens the water symbolism of the Age
of Aquarius represents the primordial ocean, Nun, in the Creation Myth. The water
imagery includes:

The Nile River … Eridanus.

The Nile Delta … Triangulum.
The Fish … Pisces.
The Southern Fish … Pisces Austrinus.
A Whale or Sea Monster … Cetus.
A shark's fin … the hat of Perseus.
The Sea Goat … Capricornus.
The Dolphin … Delphinus.
The Swan … Cygnus.
The Water Bearer … Aquarius.

"Delphinus...is the principal Fish of a great multitude of fishes. Here again Jesus is
identified with His people. In ancient mythology the dolphin was the most sacred
and honored of fishes." (872:61)

Sacred Whales and Dolphins

"For many cultures across the world, whales and dolphins are associated with
divine powers and are seen as superior beings. In ancient Greece, to kill a dolphin
was equal to killing a human and was a crime punishable by death. For dolphins
 were seen messengers for the Gods, and were closely associated with Poseidon's
daughters, the Nereids, the goddess of love Aphrodite, the heroine Galatea and the
music-loving sun god, Apollo. It was said that the constellation Delphinus, the
dolphin, was put in the sky by Poseidon in gratitude to the dolphins for finding his
bride Amphitrite.
"In the rainforests of the Amazon Basin, the native Indians tell literally
thousands of legends about the mysterious pink Amazon river dolphin, also called
the Boto. Stories abound of the river dolphins taking human form and wooing
young girls. They are often as regarded as unlucky, as they may tempt unknowing
men and women into the water, where they are taken to Encante, the underwater
world of no return. Similar tales of shape shifting are told of the elusive Baiji, or
Yangtze river dolphin.
"In Sumeria, dolphins were connected to Ea-Oannes, the deity of the sea, and
sometimes with the goddess Isis in Egypt. The ancient Celts attributed the dolphin
with well-worship and the healing powers of water, and the image of people riding
dolphins is seen on some Celtic artefacts. Some Australian Aboriginal tribes claim
to be direct descendants of dolphins, who are sometimes regarded as guardian
spirits. The dolphin is also an important symbol in heraldry, the art of creating
coats-of-arms, and represents diligence, salvation, charity and love." (1061)

"All Eastern and Western traditions relate [Aquarius] to the symbolic flood which
stands for the end of a formal universe..." (48:15)

"Le Serpent Rouge is a singular work. It contains...a sign of the zodiac—a

zodiac of thirteen signs, with the thirteenth, Ophiuchus or the Serpent Holder,
inserted between Scorpio and Sagittarius.
"Narrated in the first person, the thirteen prose poems are a type of symbolic or
allegorical pilgrimage, commencing with Aquarius and ending with Capricorn—
which, as the text explicitly states, presides over January 17." (31:101-2)

GANYMEDE: A JOVIAN MOON

When the moon is in the Seventh House

and Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

To return to our story, Hera, being furious with Zeus' multiple love affairs, confronted Zeus
about his homosexual liaison. Zeus promised that he would send Ganymede away, but didn't tell
Hera he intended to make the young man immortal and turned Ganymede into the constellation
Aquarius. In astrology, the sign that most embodies homosexuality is Aquarius. Thus,
Ganymede the cupbearer to the Olympain gods was given a permanent place in our solar
system by being named the seventh and largest moon of Jupiter. There he is said to forever
rotate around his male lover; homosexuals believe that this love affair will never end.

Although he mentions the government's involvement with remote viewers for espionage,
Lambert Dolphin does not disclose that in 1977 he traveled to Virginia Beach to negotiate
funding from the Edgar Cayce organization for the SRI project at Giza ~ nor that in 1983 he
helped to set up the Independent Mars Project’ as consultant to NASA and leader of the SRI
project at the Sphinx. We refer the reader to Lambert Dolphin & The Great Sphinx for details
of this Christian minister's connections with the Edgar Cayce Foundation and the Masonic
Egyptologists.

There is yet another disturbing piece of evidence inculpating NASA with occult organizations.
In the 1996 edition of Who's Who In America will be found the following entry: "Christian
Frederick Kleinknecht, Grand Secretary-General, Supreme Council 33, Washington, D.C., now
Grand Secretary-General."

This Supreme Pontiff of the Masonic Orders is also the brother of Kenneth Samuel
Kleinknecht, also a Mason who, although presently retired, has since 1959 held top positions
within NASA. Among these prestigious positions are listed in Who's Who: Manager of the
following: Mercury Project, the Gemini Program, the Command and Service Modules and
Flight Ops at Johnson Space Center in Houston, the Sky-Lab Project, the Laser Project-Zenith
Star Project, the Constrn. Space Shuttle Orbiter; and Assistant Manager of the Orbiter Project,
Houston. 79.

Was Edgar Cayce a Freemason? In the 1997 A.R.E. publication 'The Lost Memoirs of Edgar
Cayce' edited by Robert Smith, we read on page 56 that Edgar quit school at the age of 22 (one
has to be at least 21 to join the Masons) to join his father Leslie in peddling insurance for the
Fraternal Insurance Co. to other Freemasons around the state of Kentucky. Employees of this
company were required to be Freemasons. It was also at this time that Cayce and his father
opened several Masonic Lodges in the area to facilitate insurance sales, among other things.
The following quote of Cayce's is to be found on page 159 of Lytle W. Robinson's 1979 book,
Is It True What They Say About Edgar Cayce:

"...with the changes that will be wrought, true Americanism, the universal
thought that is expressed and manifested in the brotherhood of man, as in
the Masonic Order, will be the eventual rule in the settlement of affairs in
the world." 1069:159

These connections at the very highest levels of NASA, Freemasonry and the Edgar Cayce
Foundation make it difficult to resist the suspicion that the present missions to Jupiter and
Saturn involve may involve more than legitimate scientific exploration. Neither is there
assurance forthcoming that the Edgar Cayce Foundation is not financing the fulfillment of the
visionary's prophecies through NASA. Is it possible that the present Galileo Europa Mission is
gathering information from Jupiter's moons like the Mariner 9 and Viking 1 missions
undertaken to probe pyramid structures on Mars to prove some cosmic blueprint to the Giza
pyramids in Egypt? The following recent status report on GEM may not tell the whole story:

"NASA's Galileo spacecraft has been transmitting to Earth this past week
pictures and other science information gathered during the Dec. 16, 1997
flyby of Jupiter's icy moon, Europa. The information, which had been
stored on the spacecraft's onboard tape recorder, includes fields and
particles observations of the interaction between Europa and Jupiter's
magnetic and electric field environment. Also included are pictures and
observations of Europa's wedged regions and hot regions. Important
observations of surface changes on the volcanic moon Io will help later on
in the Galileo Europa Mission, when one or two close Io flybys are
planned. Next week, Galileo will transmit science information and
pictures of Europa's regions of fretted shapes and regions of dark lines, as
well as images of the Gilgamesh region on another Jovian moon,
Ganymede." 81.
The current president of the A.R.E. and Edgar Cayce Foundation is Cayce's grandson, Charles
T. Cayce. According to Hancock and Bauval, these organizations have carried on various
initiatives at the Giza pyramid for the past two decades. Charles Cayce has expressed his
conviction that "the truth about Giza was going to emerge and the 'Hall of Records' was going
to be discovered, just as Edgar Cayce had prophesied." 132:97,98

Hancock and Bauval also state that, in March 1996, the Egyptian Antiquities Organization
granted a one-year renewable license for the project at the Sphinx and that team members
consulted with former NASA consultant, Dr. James Hurtak, and SRI consultant, Richard
Hoagland — the men with whom Lambert Dolphin worked on the Independent Mars Project. In
1985, the Edgar Cayce Foundation and A.R.E. magazine, "Venture Inward," revealed the
primary agency created to fulfill Edgar Cayce's prophecy concerning the second coming of
Christ:

"There has been one systematic search, a sort of direct shot at finding the
Hall of Records, when the Edgar Cayce Foundation funded SRI
International..." 132:315,85

Through the fable of Zalshar, Jay Gary has cleverly conveyed to his readers (and Magi
everywhere) that the advent of a false Christ and the dawning of the Morning Star in men’s
hearts will be preceded by a special sign — the alignment of Jupiter and Saturn in the heavens
and the appearance of a royal blue spark after which Jupiter emerges wearing a magnificent
mantle of light. Such would not be the sign prophesied in Matthew 24:30, but rather a portent
of the false Christ.

Jupiter is the fifth planet from the Sun and by far the largest — more than twice as massive as
all the other planets combined. On December 7, 1989, NASA launched an exploratory mission
to Jupiter of the spacecraft Galileo. The craft, fueled by plutonium, arrived at Jupiter on
December 7, 1995 and has been orbiting the planet’s atmosphere for the purpose of gathering
information. It’s mission was slated to end in December of 1997, but was extended for two
years as the Galileo Europa Mission (GEM). On the NASA Internet site were posted the
following excerpts from reports related to the extension:

"Originally scheduled to end its exploration on December 7, 1997, NASA and

Congress have approved the extension of Galileo’s studies through the last day of
1999..." 67.
http://www.planetary.org/html/news/articlearchive/headlines/1997/headln-

"On December 7, 1997, the Galileo spacecraft completes its two-year ‘Prime
Mission’ study at Jupiter. At that point, we enter into a new phase, the Galileo
Europa Mission (GEM), a tightly focussed, low-cost continuation of Galileo’s
exploration of the Jovian system, scheduled to last through the end of 1999." 68.

The Galileo Europa Mission was subsequently extended to January 31, 2000 and into the year
2001 under another name, the Galileo Millennium Mission, during which time was planned
further exploration of the Jovian system, including the edge of Jupiter with its Great Red Spot,
and the four largest of Jupiter's 16 moons, known as the Galilean satellites — Io, Europa,
Ganymede and Callisto.

"NASA Headquarters has agreed in principle to extend the Galileo mission past its
planned January 31 finale. Details of funding and itinerary for the new extended
mission, to be called the Galileo Millennium Mission, must still be resolved. A
Europa encounter took place January 3, 2000, and is technically still part of the
current, extended Galileo Europa Mission. Another Io flyby is planned for February
20, with flybys of Ganymede on May 20 and December 28, and joint observations
of Jupiter with the Cassini spacecraft in December 2000.

******************

The seduction of Ganymedes is represented by these two constellations, Aquarius and

Aquila. The major moons of Jupiter were all named after Zeus' lovers, and Ganymede, though a
boy, was no exception. Ganymedes had a place next to Jupiter's throne on Mount Olympus and
whenever he accompanied Jupiter elsewhere, he was seated on the eagle, Aquila. (833:Aquarius)

Callisto is a huge moon, a near-twin of Ganymede in size, just a bit smaller than the planet
Mercury.

*******************

There are 3 or 4 myths relating to Orion, one of which states that his name
derives from either ouros, mountain, or ourein, "to urinate", which would make
him "he who makes water" connecting him to the tradition that both the rising &
setting of the constellation bring rain.

President Franklin D Roosevelt had Mars in the 10th house at Betelgeuze, Orion's brightest
star; as President, he was Commander-in-Chief of US forces during World War II, and had
inherited his family's estate in Deer Park, NY, on the banks of the Hudson River, thus
personifying two ancient titles of Orion: "Supreme Commander" and "Lord of the Riverbank".

"In several of his Dialogues, Plato serves as an apologist for pederasty, and apparently
considered man/boy sex to be superior to heterosexual relations. As author Eva Cantarella notes
in Bisexuality in the Ancient World, “Plato makes clear in the Symposium that it was perfectly
acceptable to court a lad, and admirable to win him...Pederasty did not lurk in the shadows of
Greek life, it was out in the open” (Greenberg:148, 151). Cantarella reviews the literature of the
period, including Plato’s writings. She writes that Plato developed a theory 'of the existence of
two different types of love: the love inspired by the heavenly Aphrodite, and the love inspired
by the common Aphrodite.' Only 'pederastic courtship,' notes Cantarella, reflected the 'heavenly'
form of love (Cantarella:59). In his Symposium, Plato expounds this theory:

'[Homosexual] boys and lads are the best of their generation, because they are the
most manly. Some people say they are shameless, but they are wrong. It is not
shamelessness which inspires their behavior, but high spirit and manliness and
virility, which leads them to welcome the society of their own kind. A striking
proof of this is that such boys alone, when they reach maturity engage in public
life. When they grow to be men, they become lovers of boys, and it requires the
compulsion of convention to overcome their natural disinclination to marriage and
procreation; they are quite content to live with one another unwed (ibid.:60).'
 "Voltaire may have had both of these men in mind when he once remarked of the propensity of
classical philosophers, “Once, a philosopher, twice, a sodomite!” (Grant, 1993:28). To be fair,
however, the characterizations of Plato and Socrates as pederasts is hotly contested by many
historians.
"In the defense of the philosophers it must be noted that Plato, whose writings provide our only
evidence for speculating on the life of either man, wrote mostly in dialogue. It is thus difficult to
know to what extent he agreed with the ideas expressed by his characters. It should also be noted
here that in is last work, the Laws, Plato asserted the value of the family and the moral wrongness
of homosexuality (Laws: 841A-841D). Still, based on the fact that homosexual pederasty was
widely practiced and accepted in Greece and that Plato based The Republic (his vision of “utopian”
society — addressed later in this book) upon the Spartan homosexual military cult, the authors
believe that in his earlier life Plato was at least an apologist for pederasty and may indeed have
practiced this perversion himself." (1029:Ch.1)

PISCES
THE TWO FISHES

“In the House of Pisces there are two fishes, one moving toward
the center of the circle toward Pole-star; the other swimming in the
path of the ecliptic (the sun's path). The two fishes are united by a
band securely tied around the tail portion of the body of each fish.
The band is also attached to the back of the head of Cetus, the Sea-
Monster, and Aries, the Ram (or Lamb), has his paw across the
bands that connect the fishes...
“In Pisces these fishes are a representation of the Church. They
were indeed a symbol of Israel thousands of years ago... In ancient
Egyptian language this constellation was known as Pi-Cot Orion or
Pisces Hori, which means 'The Fish of Him Who Comes'...” (D.
James Kennedy) (872:17)

“Despite its corporate image, Disney...artists still amused

themselves by inserting hidden symbolism in Disney products... The
Little Mermaid was a spellbinding tapestry of spiritual symbols so
specifically goddess-related that they could not be coincidence.
“When Langdon had first seen The Little Mermaid, he had
actually gasped aloud when he noticed that the painting in Ariel's
underwater home was none other than seventeenth-century artist
Georges de la Tour's The Penitent Magdalene — a famous homage
to the banished Mary Magdalene — fitting decor considering the
 to the banished Mary Magdalene — fitting decor considering the
movie turned out to be a ninety-minute collage of blatant symbolic
reference to the lost sanctity of Isis, Eve, Pisces the fish goddess,
and repeatedly, Mary Magdalene. Little Mermaid's name, Ariel,
possessed powerful ties to the sacred feminine and, in the book of
Isaiah, was synonymous with 'the Holy City besieged.'” (The Da
Vinci Code, p. 262)

THE TWO STREAMS

Virgo and Pisces are opposite signs on the Zodiac. Occultly, they represent two opposing
streams of Christianity—the feminist Gnostic tradition which is vying to overthrow traditional,
doctrinal Christianity, which Gnostics scorn as “patriarchal.” Ean Begg, author of the Cult of the
Black Virgin, unveils the esoteric meaning of the two fishes, which swim in opposite directions,
as symbolizing the conflicting streams of Gnosticism and true Christianity.

“Virgo as the opposite sign to Christian Pisces, represents its beloved ideal, its
bride and the reflection of the blind-spot in its soul. To Albertus Magnus it was
Christ's rising sign. The literalization of the virginity of Mary, like the literalization
of Eve's role as the wicked temptress of Genesis, broke the heart of Christianity and
works of reparation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary
have still not wholly healed the wound.” (272:139)

Gnostics dismiss the literal interpretation of Scripture to advance their own private
interpretations, a practice that is proscribed by II Pet.1:20-21. "Knowing this first, that no
prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation. For the prophecy came not in old time
by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost." Having
disallowed Eve's sin in the Garden of Eden and jettisoned the virgin birth of Jesus Christ, Ean
Begg proceeded to impose a private interpretation of the woman of Revelation 12 as Virgo and
Mary Magdalene, the Mother Goddess of the Cathar cult.

“So, if a troubadour sings of his wife and his mistress, he may well be referring
to the Church of Rome and Catharism. She is nagging and dangerous, this Lady,
Rome, and one should not eat her meal (i.e. the Eucharist). Amor, the dark
mistress, hidden underground, is the true source of light and inspiration...
“Thus the dichotomy of the virgin and the whore, the good mother and the witch,
continues to gnaw like an unresolved canker at the soul of modern man. The author
of the Book of Revelation suffered severely from this split. The Great Woman of
Heaven, the sign Virgo, the Holy Spirit and Mary Magdalene, brings forth a son
who is to rule all nations with a rod of iron. She is at war with her neighbouring
constellation of Hydra, the adversary of Hercules in his Cancer labour, associated
here with the Great Whore of Babylon, who holds a golden cup 'full of
abominations and filthiness of her fornication'.” (272:139)

In the stained glass window of French Cathedral of Chartres (below), the Piscean fishes are
swimming in opposite directions, which is meant to illustrate the opposing streams of
Christianity symbolized by the sign of the fish. The Cathar heresy, which took root in the south
of France, venerated Mary Magdalene as the wife of Jesus Christ. In Catharism, the Magdalene
represented a concept of femininity that was in direct contradiction to the purity of Biblical
womanhood. The Black Virgin derives from the pagan myth of the Mother Goddess, Isis,
whose son was the pagan Christ, Horus. Later derivatives of the mother-son archetype are seen
in Greek mythology, where Aphrodite and Eros become a pair of fishes.
 in Greek mythology, where Aphrodite and Eros become a pair of fishes.

“In Greek mythology, Pisces is associated

with the great beast Typhon. This fearsome
creature belonged to the earlier age of the
Titans, and was a terrifying force even for
the greatest of the gods. At one time
Typhon attacked Mount Olympus, abode of
the gods. To escape from his wrath, each
deity took the form of an animal. Zeus
himself, shifted into the likeness of a ram.
Aphrodite, and her son Eros, escaped the
beast by transforming into a pair of fish
and swimming away into the Euphrates
river. The goddess Minerva placed the
image of the fishes in the heavens so that
the event would not be forgotten.”
(Earthlore)

“In Lady of the Beasts: The Goddess and

Her Sacred Animals, Buffie Johnson
relates the various motifs associated with Pisces zodiac symbol in stained glass,
legend of the Greek goddess and her son: Chartres cathedral of France
“In his Metamorphoses, Ovid recounts that
Aphrodite and her son, Eros, were
transformed into fish during their flight
from Typhon... Another view sees the fish
[Pisces] of the Zodiac as male and female
twins, the offspring of Aphrodite and
Eros. A stained glass Pisces appears at
Chartres, that magical cathedral...dedicated
to the Virgin whose son epitomizes
Pisces.” (141:94,247)

Recall that the son of the Mother Goddess was the reincarnation of her departed husband, who was
her twin. Whatever the theogony of Pisces, the theme of duality is central: the good god versus the
bad god. In Buffie Johnson's statement above, the son epitomizes Pisces which, by extension,
would mean that the two divergent streams of Christianity represent two different Christs who are
in conflict with one another. Fred Gettings elaborated on the two versions of Christ and the dual
streams of Christianity in The Secret Zodiac:

“In the Christian zodiac, as in the pagan zodiac, the two fishes of Pisces appear to be
associated with the idea of the spirit and soul. Certainly the two fishes are linked
together by the cord which they each hold in their mouths, and certainly this
relationship of the two tied fishes was interpreted by alchemists and the later
Rosicrucians in terms of spirit-soul dualities. What was later called the 'silver cord'
was in medieval star-lore usually called 'Nodus' or 'Nodus Coelestis', the heavenly
thread...” (911:28-9)

Based on the so-called “Christian zodiac,” Fred Gettings concludes that the Church has
misunderstood the nature of the spiritual body of Christ.
 “Whatever prevarications modern theologians may issue, the fact remains that the
essential message of the Christian doctrine is that Christ became man, died, and then
returned to life in the Resurrected body, into what is widely believed the early church
called the 'Augoeides'. The fact that the nature of the resurrected body was
misunderstood relatively early in the history of the Church is of no real concern here,
though it is perhaps worth noting that it is in the true understanding of the nature of
this spiritual body that esotericism and Christianity are likely to find a fruitful
meeting point in the future.
“Christ descended into the earthly body [of Jesus], and sacrificially gave His
blood for the healing of the Earth and man. After His death, He resurrected and
returned to live within the Earth [Typhon] until the end of the world itself. It is this
central teaching (of the incarnation of a god) which is continued within the framework
of the other zodiacal symbol, Taurus.” (911:43)

Occultists believe that the nature of the resurrected body is better elucidated by magicians like
Aleister Crowley and Bulwer Lytton than the Bible:

“AUGOEIDES: From Greek meaning 'light vision' or 'bright shape', refers to the
luminous nature of the higher self. The Causal or Egoic Body. First used by
Iamblichus. In Crowley's case this was the mysterious Aiwass. In Bulwer Lytton's
Zanoni it is rendered as the 'Higher Ego'. The knowledge of the Augoeides is one of
the major goals of the magician. (See HOLY GUARDIAN ANGEL).” (912)

“When magi speak of 'the knowledge and conversation of the Holy Guardian Angel,'
they refer to that particular manifestation of spirit which is their own experience. The
principle is the same, whether it is the great Aumakua of the Hawaiian Hunas or the
visitation of the Archangel Gabriel for someone in our culture. The purpose of
M/magic(k) is not worship, but transformation. And the purpose in evoking the Holy
Guardian Angel is to obtain information that is essential to the work of transformation.
(See AUGOEIDES.)” (912)

Note Gettings' prediction that traditional Christianity will eventually arrive at the esoteric (Gnostic)
understanding of nature of the resurrected body of Christ, that is, transformation” with the help of
angels, rather than physical ascension by the power of the Holy Spirit. This is the quest for the
Grail, which is immortality, based on the false belief that man is a fallen god. Aleister Crowley’s
system of Thelema illustrates the Gnostic journey from the material into the spirit realm by means
of an alchemical wedding assisted by the Augoeides, i.e. union between a man or woman (initiate)
and a fallen angel (devil)!

“To accomplish the holy wedding we must move up the tree from the 10th sphere of
Malkuth towards the 6th sphere of Tiphareth where we can find some assistance for
our journey. Each of us has an angel and a demon, uniquely our own. The demon
tempts us with material desire, but the angel holds the key back into heaven. Sadly we
cannot see the angel, but there lies a visage in Tipareth, also known as beauty.
Tipareth is the center of the macrocosm, the greater world, and through it one can
make contact with the angel, the augoeides (though it should be understood that the
domain of the angel is above the Abyss)...
“If the aspirant is so inclined they may choose to take the Oath of the Abyss. Here it
all gets laid on the line. In the wedding between the aspirant and the angel - the
princess and prince - this is when the vows are made...
 “The consummation of our alchemical marriage is the union of the new king &
queen, now embodied by Chockmah and Binah. Hadit and Nuit; The Whore of
Babalon mounts the Great Beast of Chaos. This imagery might be shocking to some
but understand that it is, in fact, not derogatory but symbolic of the most high & holy
act of Creation. This is the full realization of divinity, gently fading into the Absolute
in one eternal moment. It is the engine of creation, for the union of the new king &
queen produces two more offspring - a son & daughter - who will eventually replace
their parents on the throne and continue the cycle. Thus, life continues unbroken, not
through the death and resurrection of the old Aeon of Osiris, but through our marriage
to the holy spirit of life and the redemption of our material selves into the kingdom of
heaven. Matter, once fallen, is spiritualized and made holy in the image of the
Absolute.
“The vast mythologies of our species are, in the end, all different lenses looking at
the same central Truth, the light held in the center of a diamond. What Thelema and
much of the western canon tells us is that heaven is on earth, that we are all gods and
goddesses containing the whole of creation in every cell, and that creation itself - the
material world - is not corrupt or fallen but remains the Eden it was. It is only us who
have fallen by our own descent into duality and our ignorance of the light.”

In Gnostic occultism, man is a god in the same way Jesus was a god, albeit an Ascended Master
who was sent to earth to help mankind realize their inner divinity. The false Christ (of Gnosticism)
comes “spiritually ” to incarnate the chosen vessel, who is then called “the Christ.” In Gnostic
teaching, Jesus became “the Christ” for the Age of Pisces when he was incarnated by “Christ.”
Moreover, according to the Gnostics, Jesus did not ascend to Heaven after his resurrection but
returned to the Middle Earth (Hell). This counterfeit Jesus was portrayed in Mel Gibson's film, The
Passion of the Christ, in which there was a resurrection but no ascension.

THE TWIN MESSIAHS

Gnostics claim to venerate Jesus and John the Baptist as the ‘twin messiahs.’ As Jesus was the
“Christ” for the Age of Pisces, John, the Gnostic Christ, will incarnate another messiah for the Age
of Aquarius. This is the reason all Grand Masters of the Prieuré de Sion take the name of John
(Jean). The authors of Holy Blood, Holy Grail disclosed that for some time there has been in
existence an esoteric papacy as well as the exoteric papacy of the Roman Catholic Church:

“After 1188 [the Prieuré de] Sion is said to have chosen a grand master of its own,
the first of them being Jean de Gisors. According to the 'Prieuré documents' every
grand master, on assuming his position, had adopted the name Jean (John)--or, since
there were four women, Jeanne (Joan). Sion's grand masters are therefore alleged to
have comprised a continuous succession of Jeans and Jeannes, from 1188 to the
present. This succession was clearly intended to imply an esoteric and Hermetic
papacy based on John, in contrast (and perhaps opposition) to the exoteric one based
on Peter.
“One major question, of course, was which John. John the Baptist? John the
Evangelist--the 'Beloved Disciple' in the Fourth Gospel? Or John the Divine, author of
the Book of Revelation? It clearly seemed to be one of these three because Jean de
Gisors in 1188 had purportedly taken the title of Jean II. Who, then, was Jean I?”
(31:159)

The secret societies' also feign devotion to John the Baptist and John the Evangelist to conceal
their true religion of gnostic occultism. Albert Pike divulged this secret Johannite Church in
Morals and Dogma:
Morals and Dogma:

“An enemy of the Templars shall tell us the secret of this Papal hostility against an
Order that has existed for centuries in despite of its anathemas, and has its
Sanctuaries and Asyla even in Rome. It will be easy, as we read, to separate the
false from the true, the audacious conjectures from the simple facts.

“A power that ruled without antagonism and without concurrence,

and consequently without control, proved fatal to the Sacerdotal
Royalties; while the Republics, on the other hand, had perished by the
conflict of liberties and franchises, which in the absence of all duty
hierarchically sanctioned and enforced, had soon become mere
tyrannies, rivals one of the other. To find a stable medium between
these two abysses, the idea of the Christian Hierophants was to create a
society devoted to abnegation by solemn vows, protected by severe
regulations; which should be recruited by initiation, and which, sole
depositary of the great religious and social secrets, should make King
and Pontiffs, without exposing it to the corruptions of Power. In that
was the secret of that kingdom of Jesus Christ, which, without being of
this world, would govern its grandeurs.
“This idea presided at the foundation of the great religious orders,
so often at war with the secular authorities, ecclesiastical or civil. Its
realization was also the dream of the dissident sects of Gnostics or
Illuminati who pretended to connect their faith with the primitive
tradition of the Christianity of Saint John. It at length became a
menace for the Church and Society, when a rich and dissolute Order,
initiated in the mysterious doctrines of the Kabalah, seemed
disposed to turn against legitimate authority the conservative principle
of Hierarchy, and threatened the entire world with an immense
revolution.
“The Templars, whose history is so imperfectly known, were those
terrible conspirators. In 1118, nine Knights Crusaders in the East,
among whom were Geoffroi de Saint-Omer and Hugues de Payens,
consecrated themselves to religion, and took an oath between the hands
of the Patriarch of Constantinople, a See always secretly or openly
hostile to that of Rome from the time of Photius. The avowed objective
of the Templars was to protect the Christians who came to visit the
Holy Places: their secret object was the re-building of the Temple
of Solomon on the model prophesied by Ezekiel.
“This re-building, formally predicted by the Judaizing Mystics of the
earlier ages, had become the secret dream of the Patriarchs of the
Orient. The Temple of Solomon, re-built and consecrated to the
Catholic worship would become, in effect, the Metropolis of the
Universe; the East would prevail over the West, and the Patriarchs of
Constantinople would possess themselves of the Papal power...
“The secret thought of Hugues de Payens, in founding his Order,
was not exactly to serve the ambition of the Patriarchs of
Constantinople. There existed at that period in the East a Sect of
Johannite Christians, who claimed to be the only true Initiates into
the real mysteries of the religion of the Saviour. They pretended to
know the real history of Yesus the ANOINTED, and, adopting in part
the Jewish traditions and the tales of the Talmud, they held that
the Jewish traditions and the tales of the Talmud, they held that
the facts recounted in the Evangels are but allegories, the key of
which Saint John gives, in saying that the world might be filled with
the books that could be written upon the words and deeds of Jesus
Christ; words which, they thought, would be only a ridiculous
exaggeration, if he were not speaking of an allegory and a legend, that
might be varied and prolonged to infinity.
“The Johannites ascribed to Saint John the foundation of their Secret
Church, and the Grand Pontiffs of the Sect assumed the title of
Christos, Anointed, or Consecrated, and claimed to have succeeded
one another from Saint John by an uninterrupted succession of
pontifical powers. He who, at the period of the foundation of the
Order of the Temple, claimed these imaginary prerogatives, was named
THEOCLET; he knew HUGUES DE PAYENS, he initiated him into
the Mysteries and hopes of his pretended church, he seduced him by
the notions of Sovereign Priesthood and Supreme royalty, and finally
designated him as his successor.
“Thus the Order of the Knights of the Temple was at its very
origin devoted to the cause of opposition to the tiara of Rome and
the crowns of Kings, and the Apostolate of Kabalistic Gnosticism
was vested in its chiefs. For Saint John himself was the Father of
the Gnostics, and the current translation of his polemic against the
heretical of his Sect and the pagans who denied that Christ was the
Word, is throughout a misrepresentation, or misunderstanding at
least, of the whole Spirit of that Evangel.
“The tendencies and tenets of the Order were enveloped in profound
mystery, and it externally professed the most perfect orthodoxy. The
Chiefs alone knew the aim of the Order: the Subalterns followed them
without distrust.
"To acquire influence and wealth, then to intrigue, and at need to
fight, to establish the Johannite or Gnostic and Kabalistic dogma,
were the object and means proposed to the initiated Brethren. The
Papacy and the rival monarchies, they said to them, are sold and
bought in these days, become corrupt, and tomorrow, perhaps, will
destroy each other. All that will become the heritage of the Temple: the
World will soon come to us for its Sovereigns and Pontiffs. We shall
constitute the equilibrium of the Universe, and be rulers and Masters of
the World.
“The Templars, like all other Secret Orders and Associations, had
two doctrines, one concealed and reserved for the Masters, which was
Johannism; the other public, which was the Roman Catholic. Thus they
deceived the adversaries whom the sought to supplant. Hence
Free-Masonry, vulgarly imagined to have begun with the Dionysian
Architects or the German Stone-workers, adopted Saint John the
Evangelist as one of its patrons, associating with him, in order not
to arouse the suspicions of Rome, Saint John the Baptist, and thus
covertly proclaiming itself the child of the Kabalah and Essenism
together."

“[For the Johannism of the Adepts was the Kabalah of the earlier
Gnostics, degenerating afterward into those heretical forms which
 Gnosticism developed, so that even Manes had his followers among
them...]” - 155:814-817

According to Albert Pike, the Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite, “The
Templars...had two doctrines, one concealed and reserved for the Masters, which was Johannism;
the other public, which was the Roman Catholic. Thus they deceived the adversaries whom the
sought to supplant.” Here is a evidence that the Roman Catholic Church is a front for the
Merovingians. (For more evidence, see: Mystery Babylon: Catholic or Jewish?)

In Joachim of Fiore and the Myth of the Eternal Evangel in the Nineteenth Century, authors
Marjorie Reeves and Warwick Gould wrote that the Gnostic messiah as St. John (Fr. Jean), the
Apostolic successor of St. John the Divine would replace the Pope (the Apostolic successor of St.
Peter) and deliver mankind from the bondage of mortality into the realm of the spirit:"

"In the Illuminist group at Avignon we also find echoes of Roquetaillade's

programme of schism, followed by the triumph of the Angelic Pope and World
Emperor in the regeneration of society...
"More generally, the Illuminist groups caught on when, in the aftermath of the
French Revolution, aspirations for a 'new religion' flourished and visionaries sought
through mystical channels the key to their own future role...
"Ballanche, with his friend Roux Bredin, revitalized the Illuminist group in Lyons,
using the language of their cult freely. Two common symbols of this typical cult are
significant for us: the repeated references to the expected 'Evangile du Saint-Esprit' or
'révélation de la révélation', and the cult of 'St Jean' as the prototype of the new
apostles. Amongst Illumines of Copenhagen Christ's words in John 21:22 were taken
to mean that in some mysterious sense St John was still on earth.
"Like others, Schelling saw St John as the apostle of the future. In concord with
Moses, Elijah and John the Baptist in the Old Dispensation, he placed Peter, Paul and
John in the New, representing the three stages in the Christian Church. Peter was the
apostle of the Father, Paul of the Son, while John was the Apostle the Spirit who was
leading mankind into the full truth of the future. The first stage was that of
Catholicism, the second of Protestantism but the third will be the perfect religion of
mankind." - 256:56-7. 62-3

Ean Begg stated in The Cult of the Black Virgin that the Merovingian veneration of John and Jesus
is merely an occult blind for their worship of the pagan gods who rule at the summer and winter
solstices respectively:

“Despite the divinity of Christ, it was John who remained the master, whose
knowledge was greater. Estoerically, John and Jesus, born at the poles of the year
[summer/winter solstices], symbolize our two natures, mortal and immortal, like
Castor and Pollux.” (272:7,124)

In Greek mythology, Castor and Pollux were Apollo and Hercules, the twin sons of Jupiter, king
of the gods. Moreover, Begg avers that ‘John’ is the French variant of the bisexual Roman god,
Janus/Dianus [Diana] (p.7) and Alexander Hislop has disclosed in The Two Babylons a yet more
esoteric interpretation:

“The name of John the Baptist…in the sacred language adopted by the Roman Church,
was Joannes. To make the festival of the 24th of June, then, suit Christians and Pagans
alike, all that was needful was just to call it the festival of Joannes; and thus the
Christians would suppose that they were honouring John the Baptist, while the Pagans
 Christians would suppose that they were honouring John the Baptist, while the Pagans
were still worshipping their old god Oannes, or Tammuz. Thus, the very period at
which the great summer festival of Tammuz was celebrated in ancient Babylon, is at
this very hour observed in the Papal Church as the Feast of the Nativity of St. John.
And the fete of St. John begins exactly as the festal day began in Chaldea.” (p.121)

Students of Scripture may recognize Oannes as the Philistine god, Dagon, but may not realize that
this fish-god is also the ‘beast that rises out of the sea,’ in Rev. 13:1. Dagobert’s
Revenge identifies Oannes as ‘Lucifer’ whose fallen angels sired a race of giants, the Nephilim, in
Genesis 6:

“...Dagon or Oannes, a half-human, half-fish combination who was known as the

‘Lord of the Flood’...was said to rise out of the sea every day to teach his secret
knowledge to those who followed him. He is mentioned in Samuel, Chapter 5, when
the Philistines capture the Ark of the Covenant and place it in the Temple of Dagon.
Two nights later, ‘Dagon was fallen upon is face to the ground before the Ark of the
Lord; and the head of Dagon and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the
threshold; only the stump of Dagon was left to him.’ It is this character upon which
Satan or Lucifer is based, but the physical description attributed to him applied to an
entire race of ‘gods’, or as they were described in the Bible, Nephilim, or Fallen
Angels, the ‘Great Old Ones’...”

“And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and
daughters were born unto them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that
they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose… There were giants
in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the
daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which
were of old, men of renown.” Gen. 6:1-4

Oannes was the same fish-god described in Bloodline of the Holy Grail as the ‘mysterious sea-
beast’ which sired Merovee, the Frankish king who founded the Merovingian dynasty. For this
reason, the Merovingian dynasty were designated “Fisher Kings.”

“Despite the carefully listed genealogies of his time, the heritage of Meroveus was
strangely obscured in the monastic annals. Although the rightful son of Clodion, he
was nonetheless said by the historian Priscus to have been sired by an arcane sea
creature, the Bistea Neptunis..
“The Sicambrian Franks, from whose female line the Merovingians emerged were
associated with Grecian Arcadia before migrating to the Rhineland. As we have seen,
they called themselves the Newmage – ‘People of the New Covenant’, just as the
Essenes of Qumran had once been known. It was the Arcadian legacy that was
responsible for the mysterious sea beast – the Bistea Neptunis – as symbolically
defined in the Merovingian ancestry. The relevant sea-lord was King Pallas, a god of
old Arcadia... The immortal sea-lord was said to be ‘ever-incarnate in a dynasty of
ancient kings’ whose symbol was a fish – as was the traditional symbol of Jesus.”
(pp.166,175)

“And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy...and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great
authority.” Rev. 13:1-2
 In his blasphemous book, The Real Meaning of the Zodiac, D. James Kennedy stated: “In Pisces
these fishes are a representation of the Church.” Fred Gettings associated the fish emblem with the
so-called “Christian zodiac,” which the Neo-Platonists based on the pagan Zodiac.

“In the Christian zodiac, as in the pagan zodiac, the two fishes of Pisces appear to be
associated with the idea of the spirit and soul... Whether this Neoplatonic notion did
influence the symbolism of Pisces or not, the spiritual nature of the fishes was adapted
by the medieval image-makers as relating very distinctly to the spiritual nature of
Christ. In any case, from the earliest times, Christ had been linked with the image of
the fish. The drawings of fish in the catacombs were symbols for Christ, and a whole
battery of more or less esoteric interpretation was erected to account for this
symbolism. A sample of this esotericism, derived from a Sibylline prophecy, is set out
in the notes on Augustine's acrostical treatment of the fish...” (911:28-9)

Christians have been badly misinformed that the fish symbol represents Christ and His followers
because they are “fishers of men.” This pagan emblem, which derives from the pagan zodiac,
found its way into the Catholic Church via St. Augustine, a Neo-Platonist. Augustine attempted to
justify the adoption of elements of pagan worship in the Church's syncretism, thereby
Christianizing pagan practices, emblems and even pagan deities. Augustine wrote concerning the
fish: “If you combine the initial letters of the five Greek words, which are Iesous Chreistos Theou
Uios Soter, Jesus Christ the Son of God the Saviour, they make the word ichthus, meaning fish,
and the mystic meaning of this noun is Christ, because He had power to exist alive, that is, without
sin, in the bottomless pit of our mortal life, as in the depths of the sea.”

In The Two Babylons, Alexander Hislop stated that Jesus Christ “began to be popularly called
ICHTHYS (or ICHTHUS), that is 'the Fish', manifestly to identify Him with Dagon...[and] that
Icthus, or the Fish, was one of the names of Bacchus.” Dagon was the Philistine Fish-deity and
Bacchus was the Greek name for Tammuz, the Babylonian Sun-god. Making an artistic
representation of the fish for religious reasons is forbidden in the Book of Deuteronomy.

“Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on
the day that the LORD spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire: Lest ye
corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the
likeness of male or female, The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness
of any winged fowl that flieth in the air, The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the
ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth: And lest
thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and
the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve
them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole
heaven.” (Deut. 4:15-19)

The race of Atlantean demi-gods are believed to have relocated to the constellation of Orion
following the Deluge; "...the Hindu Varuna, the Egyptian Osiris and the Greek Ouranos, are all
symbolized by Orion..." (767:165-6)

"Through the power of the Christ Pisces, we have been carried out into the world of stars and
zodiac, into the realm of the spiritual, from which we ourselves (as spirits) have descended to the
Earth. According to the mediaeval cosmoconception, it is the realm to which we shall ultimately
return after death, where we shall find 'life even in death'. (911:42)

"One of the most remarkable acrostics was contained in the verses cited by Lactantius and
Eusebius in the 4th century, and attributed to the Erythraean sibyl, the initial letters of which form
the words 'Iricrovs Xpioros 9eoO wos crconvp: "Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the Saviour." The
initials of the shorter form of this again make up the word ix^us (fish), to which a mystical
meaning has been attached (Augustine, De Civitate Dei, 18, 23), thus constituting another kind of
acrostic." - The 1911 Edition Encyclopedia:

TAURUS

ORION: THE STARGATE

“Following [Aries] is Cetus who rises up, the world government,

and after that follows Taurus, Gemini, Cancer and Leo, and those
are the second advent of Christ. The Judge is coming. Gemini
represents the rapture, Cancer represents the resurrection, and Leo,
the Lion, is seen jumping on the Hydra, the many headed dragon.
That's all the book of Revelation...” J.R. Church (1053)

“The last four signs make the most sense if they stand for the final
consummation of all things. This section would then foretell the
coming judgments on the earth and the glorious outcome of Christ's
reign.
“Taurus, the Bull, is an angry, rushing animal, which would be a
meaningful symbol of God delivering His wrath during the Tribulation.
The Decans are Orion, Eridanus, and Auriga. Orion is the warrior-
prince with a sword on his side and his foot on the hare or serpent.
Eridanus, the torturous River, is the River of Judgment belonging to
Orion. Auriga, the Shepherd, is a picture of a powerful shepherd-king
who tenderly holds a she-goat and two little goats in his left arm. This
could be a picture of the Lord's comfort of the persecuted believers of
this coming period of judgment.” (Prophecy Central)

The sign of Taurus, the Bull covers roughly April 19-20 to May 20-21. The Pagan
Federation's 'Wheel of the Year' states that April is the month of 'opening' and of 'giving
birth':

“April comes from the Latin Aprilus, meaning to open or give birth. This
month has been associated with the goddess since ancient times. The
constellation Taurus rules the period from 4/21 - 5/21. Considered to be the
white bull held sacred by the Greeks, Egyptians, Druids and Native Americans
(as the White Buffalo) this sign may also represent the magical white hart of
medieval lore. 4/21- The Greek fest to Io took place, with its associations to
the constellation Taurus. The Roman fest of Pales.” (668)

Taurus commences with the Greek 'fest of Io' and Roman festival of Pales. Io was the
daughter of the king of Argos who (with Zeus) bore Epaphus, founder of the royal families
of Egypt and Argos, and ancestor of the Danaids, the fifty daughters of Danaus, king of
Argos. Io was worshipped in Egypt and identified with the Egyptian goddess Isis.

Concerning Pales, Eliade's Encyclopedia of Religion states: "At Cyllene, Hermes was
worshipped by the name of Phales - derived from Phallos - and in the image of a phallic
stone. More usually...his phallic image was a herm. Originally a stone heap..." (146:264,
"Phallus") (Mount Cyllene in Arcadia is the birthplace of Hermes.) The New Encyclopedia
Britannica states: "...at Rome...a male Pales was sometimes spoken of corresponding in
some respects to Pan." (214:600, "Pales) Quoting Ovid in The Two Babylons, Alexander
Hislop wrote of the fiery rites of Pales/Pan: "The fire...was looked upon as the purifier, and
in April every year, at the...feast of Pales, both men and cattle, for this purpose, were made
to pass through the fire." (156:236)

According to D. James Kennedy's book, The Real Meaning of the Zodiac, the Tribulation
period—Christ coming forth like a bull in judgment and a fiery destruction of the wicked
—will commence in the spring under the sign of Taurus.

“The final four books are the story of the consummation of all things: of the
coming of Christ in judgment, of the Great Assize, of the gathering together of
His own unto eternal salvation, and the fiery destruction of the wicked. It is
the great culmination of the ages which is now before us.
“On a planisphere, or zodiac, the ninth figure is the great constellation of
Taurus, pictured almost at the very top (at twelve o'clock on the chart). Taurus,
The Bull...is a picture of a great beast, a bull or ox, with his head lowered and
his horns pointed forward. He is untamable and irresistible. He is charging
forth—rampaging, raging, head down, and bringing destruction to all who are
in his way. It is a picture of the coming destruction of the wicked, as Christ
comes forth in His judgment.” - D. James Kennedy (872:90-1)

Hardly by coincidence, the occult's 'Great Work'—the 'transformation of humanity'—is

also scheduled to commence in the Spring, in the signs of Aries, Taurus and Gemini.
According to Texe Marrs, the author of Circle of Intrigue, the feast of Beltane on May 1,
which falls in Taurus, is the grand finale of blood sacrifice rituals inaugurating the Great
Work:

“Aleister Crowley, 33° Mason and Grand Master of the O.T.O., taught that
the Great Work, the 'transformation of humanity', will be accomplished in the
last decade of the 20th Century. In de Rola's Alchemy: The Secret Art we find
an Illuminist-coded message of what will be the fate of Christians and other
rebels during the latter stages of the Great Work. First, we are told that the
Great Work 'may only be begun in the spring, under the signs of Aries, Taurus,
and Gemini.'
“According to the Satanic Calendar of High Holy Days, April 19 inaugurates
a period of blood sacrifice to the Beast, culminating in the Grand Climax on
May 1st each year. May 1st (May Day), of course, is celebrated in Red Square
(note the color, red) in Moscow each year by a huge parade and spectacle. It
was also on May 1, 1776 in Bavaria that Adam Weishaupt founded the Order
of the Illuminati, and it was May 1st when the ancient Druids honored their
great Sun God and Goddess with an uninhibited festival complete with
initiations, sex orgies, drunken revelry, and human sacrifice.” (140:230)

As per usual, Aleister Crowley's false prophecy did not come to pass within the time frame
predicted. This miscalculation, however, does not negate the fact that the Great Work will
assuredly be undertaken at some point in time by secret societies posturing as the
Illuminati or enlightened ones. This occult underground believes that the transformation of
world—'The Age of Aquarius' or 'New Age of Enlightenment'—was birthed in the sign of
Taurus with a grand planetary alignment which occurred following Beltane in the year
2000.

“The night of May 4, 2000, was the eve of one of the most exciting, powerful, and
transformative celestial events of our millennium according to astronomy and
astrology experts. It began with the darkest night in living memory... no moon or
planet lit up the sky as the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn were
hidden from human eyes behind the Sun. The next morning, May 5th, at 8:08 a.m.
Universal Time, the longitudinal span of these five planets, Sun and Moon
collimated within a geocentric (Earth-centered) sector of 27 degrees of the
Constellation of Taurus in our Milky Way galaxy, forming a 'Grand Planetary
Alignment.' Synchronistically, the planets on this date were also in alignment with
the great central Sun of the Pleiades cluster, plus the current eleven-year sunspot
cycle was be at its peak. Many cultures, including the Mayans and Hopi, have a
prophecy predicting the May 5th Grand Planetary Alignment and this time, 'the
birth of the New Age of Enlightenment' - The Age of Aquarius. On the Mayan
calendar, May 5th marked the end of the 5th Sun and the birth of the 6th Sun.” -
479

One New Age web site, CalenderSign 2000, proclaimed that at the turn of every age (two
millennia), there are "revolutionary transformations accompanying the change of Ages...It is the
twilight of the gods—the Day of Judgment for the outgoing and incoming Ages." Closing out
the present Age of Pisces, May 5, 2000 was to be a day of reckoning, decision and judgment.

"This Great Moment (Star Attraction) in May 2000 marks the end of the Christian
Age of Pisces and the beginning of the Age of Aquarius based on the human
calendar tradition. This is the day on which all of the gods of the heavens
mentioned in the ancient mythical cult of heavens will meet again. It’s up to
humankind whether these gods will remain in the heavens or whether they will
venture back to earth. This will be the Last Day of the old age and Day of
Judgment and First Day of the an new age and calendar, the birth of new myths,
the understanding of the pervious ones and a further step on the humankind’s own
journey to the stars." (1038)

Later that very month, on May 28, 2000, there was a rare conjunction of the planets Jupiter and
Saturn. This conjunction, which occurred in the sign of Gemini, had enormous significance in
the New Age scheme because it presaged the reunion of these ancient gods to recreate the new
Atlantis—a social order based on the pre-flood civilization which God judged in Genesis 7. The
civilizations of Greek and Rome were in fact products of the civilization of Atlantis and Greek
and Roman mythologies were based on the Atlantean gods. The Roman Saturnalia, which was a
commemoration of the Golden Age of Atlantis, specifically celebrated the overthrow of the god
Saturn (Gr. Chronos) by Jupiter (Gr. Zeus), the last god of Atlantis. Saturn is the malevolent
god of time, representing the period of chaos and judgment that precedes the reign of Jupiter,
the god of benevolence. The Saturnalia also anticipates a return to the Golden Age of Saturn,
who will rule over the first half of the Tribulation period, producing the chaos which destroys
the present social order.
It becomes apparent why Taurus, in the Spring, is so important in the occult endgame. Frances
Yates predicted in The Rosicrucian Enlightenment that the transformation of the world return
mankind to the mystery religion of ancient Egypt: "Giordano Bruno...propagated throughout
Europe in the late 16th century an esoteric movement which demanded a general reformation of
the world, in the form of a return to 'Egyptian' religion and good magic." (46:216) Good
magic? This would be a reference to what is currently termed “white magic”, à la Harry Potter,
who used the “powers of darkness” for good (an oxymoron if there ever was one). In reality,
there is no essential difference between “white” and “black” magic. Every form of sorcery is
practiced through either indirect or direct recourse to Satan.

And so the 'general reformation of the world' will be a return to the Egyptian mystery religion
which was steeped in Hermetic magic. Let us remember that the land of Egypt was an
alchemical experiment to revive the lost civilization of Atlantis—the pre-flood generation
which God judged for its wickedness. The Pharaonic Age (c. 3,240 B.C.) was distinguished for
resuscitating and propagating Atlantean magic as the 'Hermetic arts and sciences'. Adrian
Gilbert, author of Opening the Stargate, explains Hermeticism : "It was believed as a matter of
faith that in the dim and distant past the gods themselves had walked the earth. These mighty
beings, particularly Thoth, were looked upon by the Egyptian faithful as human avatars of
divine intelligence. Thoth, who was later called 'Hermes Trismegistus'...was believed to have
been the first great initiate and to have brought knowledge of the divine down to the earth. The
corpus of ideas flowing from his teachings is known as Hermeticism..." (1017, Part 1)

The Pharaonic Age of Egypt began in the Age of Taurus in the Great Mayan Cycle of 26,000
years. In his work, Arcadia, Peter Dawkins, whilst effusing over the glory of the Taurean Age,
noted that the Festival of Unification in Egypt which began the process of man's enlightenment
corresponds to the Druidic May Day Festival or Beltane. Beltane or Beltaine means 'the day of
Bel's fire' or 'Baal's fire.' (In the Celtic dialect, the verb "to tine" means "to light the fire.")

"...the Festival of Unification, which begins the process of understanding or

enlightenment of the mind, is referred to as a Taurean festival. The sign of Taurus is
taken as representing the initiating impulse that starts the process of illumination.
Taurus the Bull is the great Bestower of Light, who fertilises the minds of mankind
with seeds of light. In the East the festival of the Buddha, called the Wesak festival, is
celebrated at the same full moon as the Beltane festival in the West - for they are one
and the same. The festival is described as being the time when 'light is gathered,
concentrated and poured out to stimulate the mental state of humanity with wisdom,
and incline men towards love and brotherhood.' The festival is associated with the
birth of the Buddha, for Buddha means 'the Enlightened One', which is a description
of the enlightened mind or soul of man...
"It should be noticed...that the so-called 'Unification of the Two Lands' in Ancient
Egypt, which marked the start of the first cycle of Pharaonic dynasties, began with the
commencement of the astronomical Age of Taurus, c. 3,240 BC... The symbol of the
bull was of particular importance for Egypt throughout its history...
"...At the time that the pharaonic civilisation of Ancient Egypt was supposed to
have begun, c. 3.240 BC, the Spring Equinoctial sun arose in the middle of the
zodiacal sign of Taurus, and the May Day festival sun was on the cusp of the signs of
Cancer and Gemini." (889:26)

The Egyptians believed that the pharaohs were descendants of the gods of Atlantis, which
would make the Pharaonic dynasties a branch of this demonic lineage. New Agers think that
 commencing the Great Work under the sign of Taurus, as prophesied by Aleister Crowley, will
ensure 'the rebirth of the New Age of Enlightenment' under the leadership of this angelic
bloodline. As the Egyptians revived Atlantean magic by connecting to the stars, New Agers
believe that it is still possible to resurrect modern culture from the dead by reconnecting
mankind with the stars. This would mean that future rulers would be like the pharaohs,
descendants of fallen angels. As one Neo-Atlantean expressed it:

"It was connection to the stars that made the Egyptian civilization so long lived.
Children who were born thousands of years after the founding of Egypt could still
find the originating mythologies upon which the civilization was founded. By the
same token, it was possible for Egypt to die and be raised from the dead by
children who grew to know the mythology and then found the stories in the stars. It
is precisely as they said. All the future kings of Egypt would descend from the stars
along the path defined at the 'First Occasion.' This was Egypt's greatest secret. Once
the soul of a nation, or indeed a civilization, is connected to the stars, it can be
resurrected from the dead. Hidden within this statement is the ultimate tragedy of
human civilization. We only need to understand how to rise from the dead because
we are going to die. Realizing this important fact of life, Egypt solved the problem
by giving life to the dead." (1021)

TAURUS' DECAN
ORION: THE STARGATE

Orion = Tammuz & Saturn

“Orion is the warrior-prince with a sword on his side and his

foot on the hare or serpent. Eridanus, the torturous River, is
the River of Judgment belonging to Orion.” (Prophecy
Central) (850)

“Orion...has always been my favorite constellation and one of

the first ones that, as a child, I was able to identify.” - D.
James Kennedy (872:94)

Orion, the Hunter, is a prominent constellation, perhaps the best-

known in the sky. At the time of the Grand Planetary Alignment on
May 5, the five planets (Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn)
were in the process of leaving the constellation Aries and entering
Taurus. It is indeed auspicious that the constellation of Orion
appears in the sign of Taurus, which opens or 'births' the Golden
Age of Saturn. According to The Saturn Myth by David Talbot,
Orion was known as Tammuz in Babylon and Saturn in Rome:
"...The story of Orion preceded astrology. (In fact, Orion is widely
acknowledged to be the Greek version of the Babylonian Tammuz-
Ninurta, the planet Saturn.)" (93:331)

The Roman god, Saturn is the Greek Chronos, the god of Time. In
his book, Fingerprints of the Gods, Graham Hancock also identified
Orion as the god of Time (Chronos/Saturn): "In the subcontinent of
India...the Orion constellation is known as Kal-Purush, meaning
Time-Man..." (236:262) Saturn was also worshipped as the creator,
who was believed to be Adam: "The first religious symbols were
symbols of Saturn, and so pervasive was the planet-god's influence
that the ancients knew him as the creator, the king of the world, and
Adam the first man." (93:1-2)

The constellation of Orion looks like a man's torso, having arms but
neither a head nor legs. In the section of this report on Scorpio we
first learned that the god Orion molested Diana, for which offense
the goddess summoned a Scorpion to sting the miscreant. In
remembrance of Orion's flight from the Scorpion, it is therefore
said: "...Orion was placed among the stars in such a way that when
Scorpio rises, Orion sets." (570:188)

Orion is also known as the 'lover of Diana', as stated by Ovid who is cited in Star Names: Their
Lore and Meaning by Richard Hinckley Allen: "Dianae Comes and Amasius, Companion, and
Lover of Diana, were other titles. The Hero, after his death from the Scorpion's sting inflicted for
his boastfulness, having been located by Jove (Jupiter) in his present position, at the request of the
goddess, that he might escape in the west when his slayer, the Scorpion, rose in the east,- as Aratos
said: 'When the Scorpion comes, Orion flies to utmost end of earth'." (927:305) Another version
of this mythical affair states that Diana's twin brother, Apollo, tricked her into wounding the head
of Orion, whose headless torso was memorialized in the heavens. It seems that, as a giant, Orion
could wade through the sea with only his head protruding from the water.

"Istrus, however, says that Orion was loved by Diana and that she almost became his
wife. Apollo became distressed, his frequent scoldings had no effect. On one occasion,
when he observed the head of the swimming Orion from afar, he wagered with Diana
that she could not hit the dark spot visible in the ocean with her arrow. She, desirous
of being called the most skilled archer, shot her arrow and pierced the head of Orion.
When the waves carried his body ashore, Diana grieved greatly that she had shot him
and, lamenting his death with much weeping, reported placed him among the stars."
(570:149)

Orion's fate and Diana's lamentation for her lover bring to mind certain verses of Scripture, which
contain clues about the identity of Orion:

Then said he unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen what the ancients of the house of
Israel do in the dark, every man in the chambers of his imagery? for they say, The
LORD seeth us not; the LORD hath forsaken the earth. He said also unto me, Turn
thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do. Then he brought
me to the door of the gate of the LORD'S house which was toward the north; and,
behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz. - Ezek. 8:12-14

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave
him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it
were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast. - Rev. 13:1-3
"Weeping for Tammuz"

Tammuz was the Chaldean name for the Egyptian sun-god, Horus, the son and reincarnation of
Osiris. In Ezekiel, chapter 8, God revealed to the prophet that the apostate elders of Israel were
'weeping for Tammuz' in the Temple at Jerusalem. The reason for their lamentation was the
untimely and violent death of Tammuz, the false messiah of the Babylonians. In The Two
Babylons, Alexander Hislop identified Tammuz as Nimrod, who was deified as the constellation of
Orion:

"From Persian records we are expressly assured that it was Nimrod who was deified
after his death by the name of Orion, and placed among the stars. Here, then, we have
large and consenting evidence, all leading to one conclusion, that the death of Nimrod,
the child worshipped in the arms of the goddess-mother of Babylon, was a death of
violence.
"Now, when this mighty hero, in the midst of his career of glory, was suddenly cut
off by a violent death, great seems to have been the shock that the catastrophe
occasioned. When the news spread abroad, the devotees of pleasure felt as if the best
benefactor of mankind were gone, and the gaiety of nations eclipsed. Loud was the
wail that everywhere ascended to heaven among the apostates from the primeval faith
for so dire a catastrophe. Then began those weepings for Tammuz, in the guilt of
which the daughters of Israel allowed themselves to be implicated, and the existence
of which can be traced not merely in the annals of classical antiquity, but in the
literature of the world from Ultima Thule to Japan." (156:57)

Prior to becoming a constellation in the heavens, Orion, one of the Titans in Greek mythology, was
the archetype of the hunter. Orion was, as Hislop stated, the hunter Nimrod, who was the grandson
of Ham, a son of Noah. The rebellions of Ham and of Nimrod against God are recorded in the
book of Genesis.

And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two
brethren without. And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their
shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their
faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness. And Noah awoke
from his wine, and knew what his younger son had done unto him. And he said,
Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. Gen. 9:22-25

And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. And the sons of
Cush; Seba, and Havilah, and Sabtah, and Raamah, and Sabtecha: and the sons of
Raamah; Sheba, and Dedan. And Cush begat Nimrod: he began to be a mighty one in
the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD: wherefore it is said, Even as
Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD. And the beginning of his kingdom was
Babel, and Erech, and Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. Gen. 10:6-9

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as
they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they
dwelt there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them
thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter. And they
said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and
let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
And the LORD came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men
builded. And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one
 language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them,
which they have imagined to do. Go to, let us go down, and there confound their
language, that they may not understand one another's speech. So the LORD scattered
them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the
city. Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound
the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon
the face of all the earth. Gen 11:1-9

Nimrod's empire began in the land of Shinar (Babylon) where, as a false messiah, he attempted to
unite mankind in a false religious system. In Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning, Richard
Hinckley Allen referred to Nimrod/Orion as a hunter of men, rather than animals: "Later on the
Jews called Orion Gibbor, the Giant, considered as Nimrod bound to the sky for rebellion against
Jehovah whence perhaps came the Bands, or Bonds of Orion, which some say should be Cords, or
a Girdle; but the concept of Nimrod as 'the mighty Hunter before the Lord', at least in the ordinary
sense of that word, is erroneous, for the original, according to universal Eastern tradition signifies a
Lurking Enemy, or a Hunter of men rather than of beasts." (927:309)

As the grandson of rebellious Ham and nephew of the cursed Canaan, Nimrod became the
archetypal Child worshipped on the lap of the goddess mother, who was known under different
appellations in various cultures as Isis, Nana, Eve, Istar, Demeter, Hecate, Themis, Hera, Astraea,
Diana, Cybele, Fortuna, Erigone, Sibylla and the Virgin Mother. According to Hislop, the godly
sons of Noah, Shem and Japeth, designated Nimrod an 'apostate' after he 'liberated' mankind from
the fear and worship of the true God:

"Thus from Assyria, Egypt, and Greece, we have cumulative and overwhelming
evidence, all conspiring to demonstrate that the child worshipped in the arms of the
goddess-mother in all these countries in the very character of Ninus or Nin, 'The
Son,' was Nimrod, the son of Cush. A feature here, or an incident there, may have
been borrowed from some succeeding hero; but it seems impossible to doubt, that of
that child Nimrod was the prototype, the grand original.
"The amazing extent of the worship of this man indicates something very
extraordinary in his character; and there is ample reason to believe, that in his own day
he was an object of high popularity. Though by setting up as king, Nimrod invaded
the patriarchal system, and abridged the liberties of mankind, yet he was held by
many to have conferred benefits upon them, that amply indemnified them for the loss
of their liberties, and covered him with glory and renown...
He is said to have been the first that gathered mankind into communities, the first
of mortals that reigned, and the first that offered idolatrous sacrifices. This character
can agree with none but that of Nimrod. Now the name given to him in connection
with his 'gathering men together,' and offering idolatrous sacrifice, is very
significant.
Phoroneus, in one of its meanings, and that one of the most natural, signifies the
'Apostate.' * That name had very likely been given him by the uninfected portion of
the sons of Noah. But that name had also another meaning, that is, 'to set free'; and
therefore his own adherents adopted it, and glorified the great 'Apostate' from the
primeval faith, though he was the first that abridged the liberties of mankind, as the
grand "Emancipator!" ** And hence, in one form or other, this title was handed down
to this deified successors as a title of honour.***
* From Pharo, also pronounced Pharang, or Pharong, 'to cast off, to make naked,
to apostatise, to set free.' These meanings are not commonly given in this order, but
as the sense of 'casting off' explains all the other meanings, that warrants the
 conclusion that 'to cast off' is the generic sense of the word. Now 'apostacy' is very
near akin to this sense, and therefore is one of the most natural...
"All tradition from the earliest times bears testimony to the apostacy of Nimrod,
and to his success in leading men away from the patriarchal faith, and delivering
their minds from that awe of God and fear of the judgments of heaven that must
have rested on them while yet the memory of the flood was recent. And according to
all the principles of depraved human nature, this too, no doubt, was one grand element
in his fame; for men will readily rally around any one who can give the least
appearance of plausibility to any doctrine which will teach that they can be assured of
happiness and heaven at last, though their hearts and natures are unchanged, and
though they live without God in the world. How great was the boon conferred by
Nimrod on the human race, in the estimation of ungodly men, by emancipating them
from the impressions of true religion..." (156:51-2)

Although Nimrod [aka Orion/Saturn/Tammuz] was a hunter of men, his religious system was based
on a deceptive assurances of salvation without any provision for the fundamental problem of sin.
As a type of the Antichrist who will soon be revealed, this false messiah was able to draw the
multitudes into his one world religion; as Hislop stated, "men will readily rally around any one
who can give the least appearance of plausibility to any doctrine which will teach that they can be
assured of happiness and heaven at last, though their hearts and natures are unchanged".

Because with lies ye

have...strengthened the hands of the
wicked, that he should not return
from his wicked way, by promising
him life: (Ezekiel 13:22)

Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof. (2 Tim. 3:5).

"One of his heads as it were wounded to death"

And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to

death;
and his deadly wound was healed: and all the
world wondered after the beast. (Rev.13:1-3)

According to Masonic sources, the missing head and legs of Orion are symbolized by the ‘Skull &
Crossbones’, which strongly indicates that the Freemason's veneration of John the Baptist (who
was beheaded) is really the worship of Orion (Nimrod/Tammuz).

"The omission of Orion's head and legs in the constellation of Orion, illustrated
above, is immediately noticeable. It would seem that Orion has had his legs and his
head chopped off!
"A similar practice was observed by the Knights Templar five and a half thousand
years later when they were buried. By adopting this practice the deceased Knights
Templar became as one with Orion and, by implication, Osiris. The 'skull and
crossbones' … Orion's missing head and legs…were also adopted by the Knights
Templar as their emblem, their symbol of recognition.
"As we shall soon discover, the severed head of Orion is in fact the Sun. Moreover
it is the headless Orion which is the source of legends about severed heads." (903, Ch.
9)
The aforementioned publication, Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning, is considered the basic
book in its field, which is astrology. Richard Hinckley Allen's dedicatory statement is as follows:
"I gratefully dedicate these pages to the memory of Hubert Anson Newton and William Dwight
Whitney, senior professors in Yale University who first encouraged me in my work." (927)

Hubert Anson Newton (1830-96) was an American astronomer and mathematician; he was also
doctoral advisor to Eliakim Moore, a Skull & Bones member at Yale. William Dwight Whitney
was a senior professor on the staff of Yale University when Star Names was published in 1963.
William Dwight Whitney is in all probability a direct descendant of a famous American Sanskrit
scholar, William Dwight Whitney (1827–94), who became professor of Sanskrit and comparative
philology at Yale following his studies in Germany. A ‘William Dwight Whitney’ also shows up
on Antony Sutton's list of personages who have held membership in the Order of Skull & Bones.
As the date of initiation is not given, we cannot be certain which William Dwight Whitney is on
Sutton's list, but it is not unreasonable to speculate that both Yale professors were members of the
Skull & Bones. The 19th century Sanskrit scholar/Yale professor would have lived during the
period when the Order of Skull & Bones took over the management of Yale University.

"Daniel Coit Gilman ('52), along with two other 'Bonesmen,' formed a troika which
still influences American life today. Soon after their initiation in Skull and Bones,
Daniel Gilman, Timothy Dwight ('49) and Andrew Dickinson White ('53) went to
study philosophy in Europe at the University of Berlin. Gilman returned from Europe
and incorporated Skull and Bones as Russell Trust, in 1856, with himself as Treasurer
and William H. Russell as President. He spent the next fourteen years in New Haven
consolidating the order's power...
"Timothy Dwight, a professor at Yale Divinity School, was installed as president of
Yale in 1886. All presidents since, have been either 'Bonesmen' or directly tied to the
Order and its interests." 1019

"In 1886 Timothy Dwight (The Order) had taken over from the last of Yale's clerical
Presidents, Noah Porter. Never again was Yale to get too far from The Order." 711:93

Rev. President Timothy Dwight (1828-1916) was the grandson of Rev. Timothy Dwight (1752-
1817) who was the grandson of the famous Rev. Jonathan Edwards (1703-1758), president of
Union College. Both Timothy Dwights were presidents of Yale University. In 1873, the younger
Timothy Dwight was elected to serve on the American Revision Committee which had
collaborated with Westcott and Hort's English Revision Committee. The elder Timothy Dwight,
who was born in 1752, was a also personal friend of President George Washington, a high-level
Freemason. One biography states: "Timothy Dwight was a man for all seasons: an ordained
Congregational minister, grandson of Jonathan Edwards, personal friend of George Washington,
and Army chaplain." 1018

Orion/Saturn/Tammuz/Nimrod/Horus/Osiris = Anunnaki/Nephilim

Orion lies partly in the Milky Way, the alleged 'Galactic Stellar Womb' from which the rest of the
galaxy was conceived and born: "Orion, the giant, Hunter, and Warrior, admired in all historic ages
as the most strikingly brilliant of the stellar groups, lies partly within the Milky Way, extending on
both sides of the celestial equator entirely south of the ecliptic, and so is visible from every part of
the globe." (927:303-4) The pre-flood giants, the Annunaki, were said to travel through the Milky
Way by way of a planet ship named Nibiru, also called the Mothership. The Anunnaki, which the
Bible calls Nephilim, came to Earth to 'pro-create' the human race (Gen. 6) and conveniently
relocated to Orion after the Deluge (Gen. 7). The Bible states that no flesh survived the Great
Flood, leaving open the possibility that the fallen angels, the Nephilim/Anunnaki, may have
escaped:

"Genesis 7:21-23 stress the theme of universal death: "And all flesh died that moved
upon the earth... So He destroyed all living things which were on the face of the
ground... They were destroyed from the earth. Only Noah and those who were with
him in the ark remained alive.'"

According to Laurence Gardner, Noah's son, Ham (who survived the Flood, dishonored his father
and was cursed) was Hermes, who taught the Atlantean doctrine to the Egyptians.

"The Tables of Testimony...not to be confused with the Ten Commandments...are

rather more associated with the original Table of Destiny of the Anunnaki... This
ancient archive is directly associated with the Emerald Table of Thoth/Hermes, and, as
detailed in alchemical records of Egypt, the author of the preserved writings was the
Biblical Ham, a great Archon of the Grail bloodline. He was the essential founder of
the esoteric and arcane 'underground stream' which flowed through the ages and his
Greek name, Hermes, was directly related to the science of pyramid construction,
deriving from the word herma, which relates to a 'pile of stones'." (348:219)

An alternative spelling for Orion is Arion or Aryan, according to Richard Hinckley Allen:
"Catullus transcribed Oarion from Pindar, shortened to Arion and sometimes changed to Aorion..."
(927:304) The Aryan race were the demi-gods of Atlantis, the Nephilim/Anunnaki who relocated
to the constellation of Orion. The Aryan or 'master race theory', which was popularized in the 19th
century by H.P. Blavatsky, provided the philosophical framework for the Nazi Holocaust. "Another
source for the master race theory in the early days of the Nazi Party was the occultist Alfred
Rosenberg... was convinced that the Aryan race had originated in the lost continent of Atlantis
which was the source of all ancient occult beliefs." (25:129-30)

The Aryan race theory claimed a seven step process of human evolution in which successive races
evolve from a lower to a higher form of life. Mme Blavatsky called these stages “root races” and
identified our current Aryan race as the fifth root race, which followed the fourth race known as
the Atlantean. According to the Aryan root race view of history, survivors of the ancient and
highly developed lost civilization of Atlantis would one day endow “initiates” with esoteric powers
and wisdom. These initiates would use their occult powers to create a new race of Aryan supermen
who would eliminate all inferior races. In other words, as the pre-flood Nephilim sired the
Merovingian race, demons will again interpose their DNA into the gene pool of humanity by
mating with humans. This unhappy prospect was articulated on the website of Dagobert's Revenge:

"Dr. Carl Jung believed that these UFO sightings are a product of our unconscious
veiling of an ancient human experience... This 'bringing to earth' of the Sangraal by
UFO's is the modern day equivalent of the Nephilim, the Outer Ones, or the Elohim
earthing 'knowledge' and siring a new race of 'kingly' beings for this world. Kingly
i.e., the Merovingians. The Merovingian blood is the blood of kings, the kings or gods
from ancient Sumeria and beyond. ...the Nephilim have been identified as the Fathers
of the Merovingians." - 571

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. Matt. 24:37

Orion/Saturn/Tammuz/Nimrod/Horus/Osiris/Anunnaki/Nephilim = Son of
Neptune/Poseidon/Beast out of the Sea

According to Star Myths of the Greeks and Romans by Theony Condos, "Hesiod says that Orion
was the son of Euryale, the daughter of Minos and of Poseidon and that to him was granted the
ability to walk on the sea as he did on the land." (570:147) Recall that, being a giant, Orion could
wade through the sea with only his head protruding from the water. Neptune is the Bistea Neptunis
— the Beast out of the Sea and Orion was his son. As the son of the Beast out of the sea, it is
interesting that Orion has 17 stars, equaling 7 heads and 10 horns:

"The total [of stars in Orion] is seventeen. Hesiod says this is Neptune's son by
Euryale... To him was granted the ability to run on the water as he did on the land."
(570:148)

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. Rev. 13:1

Scripture says that sitting upon this 7-headed, 10-headed Beast, which is full of names of
blasphemy—Orion/Saturn/Tammuz/Nimrod/Horus/Osiris—is a woman, the Great Harlot; and that
the 7-heads are the 7 mountains or hills of Rome, which were named after the sun and moon and
five planets:

“Tradition says that Rome was founded in 753 BC by twin boys, Romulus and Remus.
Romulus and Remus were abandoned by their parents and were then taken into the
care of a she-wolf. From looking at archaeology, researchers discovered that the city
of Rome began in 753 BC as a series of farmsteads on a group of hills overlooking the
Tiber River. There were seven hills and some believe that Romulus and Remus were
not only very proud of finding this land with seven hills, but, for the fact that there
were seven planets they worshipped: the Sun, the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars,
Jupiter and Saturn.” (676)

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with
me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great
whore that sitteth upon many waters:... So he carried me away in the spirit into the
wilderness: and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of
blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns... And the angel said unto me,
Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the
beast that carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns... And here is the
mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the
woman sitteth... And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have
received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast... And
the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and shall
make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire. Rev.
17:1,7,9,12,16

Ignatius Donnelly wrote in Atlantis: The Antediluvian World, that twelve gods originally
governed Atlantis: "These deities...were twelve in number: Zeus (or Jupiter), Hera (or Juno),
Poseidon (or Neptune), Demeter (or Ceres), Apollo, Artemis (or Diana), Hephæstos (or
Vulcan), Pallas Athena (or Minerva), Ares (or Mars), Aphrodite (or Venus), Hermes (or
Mercury), and Hestia (or Vesta).' ...Where two names are given to a deity in the above list, the
first name is that bestowed by the Greeks, the last that given by the Romans." (635:287)
 Later, Atlantis was comprised of ten regions which were ruled by ten kings. In Shambala,
Victoria LePage states that Atlantis' "ten districts...were ruled by ten kings." (167:200) This is
verified by Donnelly who elaborates on the sacred numeral 'ten' as the number of rulers in
ancient empires:

"...The ten kingdoms of Atlantis are perpetuated in all the ancient traditions. 'In the
number given by the Bible for the Antediluvian patriarchs we have the first instance
of a striking agreement with the traditions of various nations. Other nations, to
whatever epoch they carry back their ancestors...are constant to the sacred number
of ten... In Chaldea, Perosus numerates ten Antediluvian kings whose fabulous
reign extended to thousands of years. The legends of the Iranian race commence
with the reign of ten Peisdadien (Poseidon?) kings.... In India we meet with the
nine Brahmadikas, who, with Brahma, their founder, make ten, and who are called
the Ten Petris, or Fathers. The Chinese count ten emperors, partaking of the divine
nature, before the dawn of historical time. The Germans believed in the ten
ancestors of Odin, and the Arabs in the ten mythical kings of the Adites.'
(Lenormant and Chevallier, 'Anc. Hist. of the East,' vol. i., p. 13.)" (635:26-7)

Orion, although a son of Poseidon/Neptune, did not become a ruler of Atlantis. The first ten
kings of Atlantis were the TWIN sons of Poseidon/Neptune, the Bistea Neptunis, or 'beast out
of the sea':

Atlas and Eumeleus 8, Ampheres and Evaemon 3, Mnesus and Autochthon,

Elasippus 2 and Mestor 4, and Azaes and Diaprepes. "Poseidon and Cleito 2 had
five pairs of twins who, along with their descendants, ruled the ten provinces in
which Poseidon had divided Atlantis. The island and the ocean were called after
Poseidon's first-born Atlas, who was also king over his brothers. The brothers, and
the descendants of their ten royal houses ruled over many other islands, and also
over the Mediterranean peoples living west of Egypt and Tuscany." (1022)

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea,
having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns,
and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. Rev. 13:1

Orion as the 'Soul of Osiris'

All young ancient Egyptians were taught that Osiris, the male human aspect of the One Supreme
God, lived and reigned as the first king of Egypt. However, Osiris was slain by his evil brother,
Seth, who with Osiris, Isis, Nepthys, and the elements, Earth, Air, Fire and Water, formed the One
God of the Egyptians, called an Enniad, i.e. nine gods in one. As Nimrod became the constellation
Orion after his demise, the Egyptian sun god, Osiris, whose untimely death was mourned by Isis
and all of Egypt, is also universally identified as the 'soul of Orion'.

Richard Allen Hinckley, Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning

"Egyptian mythology laid to rest in this constellation the soul of Osiris...and, again,
in the Book of the Dead we read: 'Osiris N is the constellation Orion;' In this
connection, Orion was known as Smati Osiris, the Barley God...
"In astrology...[the name] Tripater applied to him.
"Saturnus has been another title, but it's connection here I cannot learn, although I
hazard the guess that as this divinity was the sun-god of the Phoenicians, his name
 might naturally be used for Uruanna-Orion, the sun-god of the Akkadians." (927:308)

Colin Wilson, The Atlantis Blueprint: Unlocking the Ancient Mysteries of a Long Lost
Civilization

"In Atlantis to the Sphinx (1996) I pointed out that...'[David] Frawley points out that
the Hindu Varuna, the Egyptian Osiris and the Greek Ouranos, are all symbolized by
[the constellation of] Orion..." (767:165-6)

The esoteric interpretation of the myth of Isis and Osiris is disclosed in Spiritual Politics:
Changing the World From the Inside Out: "Like the goddess Isis, who found and restored all of the
lost pieces of her husband, Osiris, many are restoring the unity of all life, bringing together the
separate parts of humanity — different races, religions and cultures." (42:62) From this
understanding, we may infer that Osiris was Nimrod—the great hunter of men and unifier of
mankind under a pagan religious system—who, as stated by Hislop, 'was the prototype, the grand
original'. Nimrod was simply venerated in various cultures under different names: Osiris, Tammuz,
Wotan, Viracocha, Quetzalcoatl, Varuna, etc. All were priest-kings who taught mankind the
ancient mysteries as well as academic disciplines. By reason of the supernatural powers and
intellectual prowess of these divine beings, the civilization of mankind was greatly advanced. All
are expected to return to earth to revive the ancient pre-flood mysteries and culture.

Orion = Viracocha

There is, in addition to Saturn, Tammuz and Nimrod, a correspondence between Osiris and
Viracocha, the sun-god of the Incas: "Several authors have speculated upon the mythological
connection between the Egyptian god Osiris, and the god Viracocha, of the people of Central
Andes. Osiris is believed to have traveled around the globe bringing civilization to many nations...
He was tall, of pale complexion, bearded and dressed in a long white robe." (606:286)

Osiris, who ruled over the 'First Time,' was able to walk over (or in) the oceans and 'traveled
around the globe bringing civilization to many nations'. Thus, we may conclude that Viracocha =
Osiris = Adam = Orion. Viracocha is also analogous to Quetzalcoatl of the Aztecs; to the Queshua,
Aymara, and other tribes of South America, he is known as Ameru, which means 'serpent'. It will
come as a shock to many Americans that the name 'America' is probably derived from 'Ameru', the
serpent-god, and not the Italian voyager 'Amerigo' Vespucci!

As a celibate demi-god, Quetzalcoatl invented the Mayan and Aztec calendar and bequeathed the
secret doctrine to his priests, who were also celibate. Quetzalcoatl was driven away on a serpent
boat by his evil twin, Tezcatlipoca (the black twin), but is expected to return from the East (where
he spread his knowledge of science and the arts) to reclaim his power among the Mesoamerican
people. Does Quetzalcoatl not compare to Osiris, who was also murdered by his evil twin, taught
the Hermetic doctrines to the Egyptians, and is regarded as Egypt's 'once and future king'? A
promo for a book titled The Return of the Serpents of Wisdom, by Mark Amaru Pinkham, reveals
that the various supreme deities were all indigenous serpent-gods!

“According to ancient records, the patriarchs and founders of the early civilizations in
Egypt, India, China, Peru, Mesopotamia, Britain, and the Americas were the Serpents
of Wisdom—spiritual masters associated with the serpent—who arrived in these lands
after abandoning their beloved homelands and crossing great seas. While bearing
names denoting snake or dragon (such as Naga, Lung, Djedhi, Amaru, Quetzalcoatl,
Adder, etc.), these Serpents of Wisdom oversaw the construction of magnificent
 civilizations within which they and their descendants served as the priest kings and as
the enlightened heads of mystery school traditions. The Return of the Serpents of
Wisdom recounts the history of these 'Serpents'—where they came from, why they
came, the secret wisdom they disseminated, and why they are returning now.” 1023

In The Two Babylons, Hislop elucidates the reason for the lamentation for Osiris/Tammuz/Nimrod
et al. The untimely death of this false messiah, known in other cultures as Tammuz, Nimrod,
Wotan, Viracocha, Quetzalcoatl and Varuna, meant the dissolution of the global religious system
established by this demi-god. Because God put an end to Nimrod's 'unity in diversity' experiment,
He is forever labeled as the Scorpion in the Zodiac.

"The name of a scorpion in Chaldee is Akrab; but Ak-rab, thus divided, signifies 'THE
GREAT OPPRESSOR,' and this is the hidden meaning of the Scorpion as represented
in the Zodiac. That sign typifies him who cut off the Babylonian god, and suppressed
the system he set up. It was while the sun was in Scorpio that Osiris in Egypt
'disappeared' (Wilkinson, vol. iv., p.331), and great lamentations were made for his
disappearance. Another subject was mixed up with the death of the Egyptian god; but
it is specially to be noticed that, as it was in consequence of a conflict with a scorpion
that Orion was 'added to the stars,' so it was when the scorpion was in the ascendant
that Osiris 'disappeared'." (156:57)

In Fingerprints of the Gods, Graham Hancock draws attention to the fact that the Giza Plateau and
Nile River were representations of the constellation of Orion and the Milky Way respectively. It
seems that, after the flood and their expulsion from the earth, the Nephilim left the Sphinx,
pyramids and Nile River as markers indicating their whereabouts in the heavens. As the three
pyramids of Giza correspond to the belt stars of Orion, there are also three pyramids in Mexico
which correspond to the Giza pyramids. This design would give credence to speculation that Osiris
and Quetzalcoatl were same god, whose soul is claimed to now reside in Orion.

"...archaeo-astronomers making use of the latest star-mapping computer

programmes had recently demonstrated that the three world-famous pyramids on
Egypt's Giza plateau formed an exact terrestrial diagram of the three belt stars in the
constellation of Orion. Nor was this the limit of the celestial map the Ancient Egyptian
priests had created in the sands on the west bank of the Nile. Included in their overall
vision...there was a natural feature—the river Nile—which was exactly where it
should be had it been designed to represent the Milky Way.
"The incorporation of a 'celestial plan' into key sites in Egypt and Mexico...,...the
monuments of Teotihuacan, like those of the Giza plateau, played important religious
roles in the lives of the communities they served.
"The Central American traditions...gave eloquent expression to a widespread belief
that Teotihuacan had fulfilled at least one specific and important religious function in
ancient times. According to these legends the City of the Gods was so known because
'the Lords therein buried, after their deaths, did not perish but turned into gods...' In
other words, it was 'the place where men became gods'. It was additionally known as
'the place of those who had the road of the gods', and 'the place where gods were
made'.
"Just as at Giza, three principal pyramids had been built at Teotihuacan: the
Pyramid/Temple of Quetzalcoatl, Pyramid of the Sun and the Pyramid of the Moon....
"Could all this be coincidence? Was it not more logical to conclude that there was
an ancient connection between Mexico and Egypt?...
"...that the pyramids of Egypt and the ruins of Teotihuacan might express the
 technology, the geographical knowledge, the observational astronomy (and perhaps
also the religion) of a forgotten civilization of the past..." 236:168

As above, so below

In November of 1983, Masonic author Robert Bauval claimed to have discovered that the ground
plan of the main three pyramids at Giza were a replica of Orion's Belt in the Constellation of
Orion. In a 1994 book, The Orion Mystery, Robert Bauval and Adrian Gilbert claimed that the shafts of
the Great Pyramid were pointed directly at key stars in Orion in a way that reflected the configuration of Orion in ancient
times. Using astronomical data about stellar movement, Bauval and Gilbert contended that the Orion stars correspond
precisely to the pyramids' positions in approximately 10,400 B.C. This period was called by the Egyptians the 'First Time',
when the god Osiris ruled the Earth.

"According to a theory by Robert Bauval, the positions of the Giza pyramids on the
ground are a reflection of the positions of the stars in the constellation Orion circa
10,500 B.C. (Graham Hancock, Keeper Of Genesis, pp.354-355 ) Five of the 7
brightest stars have pyramid equivalents: The 3 great pyramids of Khufu, Khafra, and
Menkaura for the belt of Orion, the pyramid of Nebka at Abu Rawash corresponds to
the star Saiph and the pyramid at Zawat al Aryan corresponds to the star Bellatrix. The
Nile river corresponds to the Milky Way. The principal Giza monuments formed an
accurate terrestrial map of the stars of Orion and Sirius as these constellations
appeared in 10,500 BC. (1036)

"The celestial counterpart of Osiris was Orion—a constellation that the ancient
Egyptians knew as Sah, the 'Far-Strider' and most frequently depicted by means of the
three characteristic belt stars. And since Osiris was said to have ruled in the 'First
Time' we wonder whether this could be the reason why the three great Pyramids of
Giza depict the three stars of Orion's belt as they looked 12,500 years ago at what
might reasonably be defined as their astronomical 'First Time'—i.e. at the beginning of
their current upwards precessional cycle?" (132:81)

As previously stated, Orion represented to the ancient Egyptians the 'soul of Osiris', his body
having been mummified and interred in the Giza Plateau in a mysterious location called 'the House
of Sokar'. The departed soul of Osiris ruled in specific place in the heavens called 'The Duat'
which is the constellation of Orion. As king of the Realm of the Dead, Osiris was the means by
which men attained ‘eternal life’!
 "We find Horus firmly in possession of the earthy 'Kingdom of Osiris' (which had
of course been founded in the 'First Time') and we find the body of Osiris himself
safely installed in 'the House of Sokar'. Under these ideal conditions, according to the
texts, the spiritualized form of Osiris was freed to depart to the sky—and to a specific
location in the sky that we have already identified: 'the place where Orion is'. There it
was held that he had established the Duat—the cosmic 'Otherworld' on the right bank
of the Milky Way—as a sort of 'Kingdom of Osiris' for the Dead.
"Selim Hassan actually calls the Duat 'the Kingdom of Osiris' and shows how
'Osiris is styled 'Lord of the Duat' and the Osiris-King [i.e. the deceased Pharaoh] 'a
companion of Orion'..." 132:147

The Great Pyramid was built as a monument to Orion, who, as Osiris was centerpiece of Egyptian
worship. Freemasonry, which is also centered on the worship of Osiris and Orion, aspires to revive
the pre-flood civilization of Atlantis. The ancient wisdom texts of Hermes Trismegistus,
specifically The Book of What is in the Duat, instructed the Egyptian priests that whatever exists in
the heavens must be replicated on earth if mankind would restore the ancient pre-flood civilization
of Atlantis. On The Message of the Sphinx, Masonic writers Hancock and Bauval have presented
detailed information on the Egyptian monuments—a modern 'Book of What is in the Duat' for
Neo-Atlanteans.

"...the 'Hermetic Texts' were believed to have been the work of the ancient Egyptian
wisdom god Thoth (known to the Greeks as Hermes), who makes the following
remarks to his disciple Asclepius: 'Do you not know, Asclepius, that Egypt is an
image of heaven? Or, so to speak more exactly, in Egypt all the operations of the
powers which rule and work in heaven have been transferred down to earth below?'
The purpose to which these powers were harnessed, in the Hermetic view, was to
facilitate the initiate's quest for immortality...
"...In one of these texts, Shat Ent Am Duat — the Book of What is in the Duat — we
find what appears to be an explicit instruction to the initiate to build a replica on the
ground of a special area of the sky known as the 'hidden circle of the Duat':
'Whosoever shall make an exact copy of these forms...and shall know it, shall be a
spirit and well equipped both in heaven and earth, unfailingly, and regularly and
eternally.'...
"...it is a fact that the Duat sky-region described in the ancient Egyptian texts was
dominated by the constellations of Orion and Leo — both of which appear to have
been 'imaged' on the ground at Giza (with the former additionally targeted by the
southern shaft of the King's Chamber in the Great Pyramid) — and by the star Sirius,
which was targeted by the southern shaft of the Queen's Chamber...
"...there are repeated references in the Book of What is in the Duat, and in numerous
other funerary and rebirth texts, to Zep Tepi, the 'First Time' — the remote epoch
when the gods were believed to have come to earth and established their kingdom in
Egypt. These gods included Thoth-Hermes, the 'Thrice-Great' master of wisdom, the
goddess Isis whose celestial counterpart was the star Sirius, and Osiris, the 'once and
future king', who was killed, revenged by his son Horus, and then reborn to live for
ever as the 'Lord of the Duat'." (132:65)

The myth of Osiris, of course, is Satan's attempt to counterfeit the death, resurrection and future
reign of Jesus Christ, with the promise eternal life for his disciples, who were called the 'Followers
of Horus'. Eternal life for the pharaoh meant that he was reborn as a star in Orion.
 "...the constant affirmation, repeated over and over again in these ancient
compositions [the Pyramid Texts], was that of life - eternal life -...was to be achieved
through the pharaoh's rebirth as a star in the constellation of Orion. ...there were
several utterances which voiced this aspiration explicitly:
"'O King, you are this Great Star, the Companion of Orion, who traverses the sky
with Orion...you ascend from the east of the sky being renewed in your due season,
and rejuvenated in your due time...'" (236:367)

To the followers of Isis, Osiris became the Lord of Eternity after his death and resurrection and
thus is able to guarantee them eternal life in Duat, the next world. "Sirius was also of great
importance for this star was seen as the stellar domain of Isis, for it was actually giving birth to the
infant Horus!... The new Pharaoh had to accompany his predecessor to Orion for the assimilation
with Osiris and then be re-born twelve hours later via Isis through Sirius! This was the twelve
hours of the Am-Dwat, the twelve hours after death, so the new king dies and is born again in the
human form of Horus, the divine son of Osiris." (1032)

To aid their ascent to the Duat, 'the place where Orion is', a hymn was sung at the funeral of
deceased pharaohs, who aspired to attain to godhood in the celestial 'Kingdom of Osiris'.

"...Osiris himself, Egypt's 'Once and Future King', died and was then restored to
immortal life as Lord of the sky-region of Orion. This region...was known as the Duat.
In it all the Pharaos of Egypt hoped that they would reside eternally after their own
deaths:
"The gate of the earth is open for you...may a stairway to the Duat be set up for you
to the place where Orion is...
O king...the sky conceives you with Orion...the sky has borne you with Orion...
O king, be a soul like a living star...
The gate of the earth-god is open...may you remove yourself to the sky and sit upon
your iron throne...
The aperture of the sky window is opened for you...
The doors of iron which are in the starry sky are thrown open for me, and I go
through them..." (132:109)

By "gate of the earth-god", "aperture of the sky window" and "doors of iron", the hymn would
seem to be referring to a specific place in the Duat as the portal through which Osiris and the
pharaohs passed. This portal was called a 'star gate'. As well, state Hancock and Bauval, it was a
'time gate' where the departed souls attained immortality.

"What seems to be envisaged here, taken literally and reduced to the basic common
denominators running through all the above utterances, appears to be nothing less than
an iron 'stargate' intended to admit Osiris, and all the dynasties of dead kings after
him, into the celestial realms of the belt of Orion. But if the Pyramid Texts are
describing a stargate then they are also describing a timegate — for they express no
doubt that by passing through the iron-doored portals of the sky the soul of the
deceased will attain a life of millions of years, navigating eternity in the vessels of the
gods." (132:109)

The specific portal through which the pharaohs passed is located in Orion's belt of three stars.
Specifically, the King's Chamber of the Great Pyramid was aimed at the belt star, Al Nitak, the
brightest belt star. Al Nitack was the Stargate when visible.
 "The Great Pyramid has numerous features which leave us without any doubt that its
designers paid careful attention to the stars and tracked their transit at the meridian... Most
conclusive of all...is the fine accuracy of the four shafts. Recent investigations have
established beyond a shadow of a doubt that in circa 2500 BC — the era recognized by
Egyptologists as the 'Pyramid Age'— each one of these shafts targeted a special star as it
culminated at the meridian.
"From the Queen's Chamber, the northern shaft is angled at 39 degrees and was aimed at
the star Kochab (Beta Ursa Minor) in the constellation of the Little Bear — a star
associated by the ancients with 'cosmic regeneration' and the immortality of the soul. The
southern shaft, on the other hand, which is angled at 39 degrees 30', was aimed at the
bright star Sirius (Alpha Canis Major) in the constellation of the Great Dog. This star the
ancients associated with the goddess Isis, cosmic mother of the kings of Egypt.
"From the King's Chamber, the northern shaft is angled at 32 degrees 28' and was aimed
at the ancient Pole star, Thuban (Alpha Draconis) in the constellation of the Dragon —
associated by the Pharaohs with notions of 'cosmic pregnancy and gestation'.
"The southern shaft [of the Great Pyramid], which is angled at 45 degrees 14', was aimed
at Al Nitak (Zeta Orionis), the brightest (and also the lowest) of the three stars of Orion's
belt — which the ancient Egyptians identified with Osiris, their high god of resurrection
and rebirth and the legendary bringer of civilization to the Nile Valley in a remote epoch
referred to as Zep Tepi, the 'First Time'." (132:65)

There is considerable controversy over whether the pyramids today reflect the configuration of
Orion's belt. There is also controversy over the dating of the pyramids, whether they were built by
the pharaohs in the dynastic era circa 3,400 B.C. or much earlier in 10,500 B.C. The early daters
solve the configuration discrepancy by claiming that the pyramids were precisely aligned with
Orion's belt in 10,500 B.C., but not in 3,400 B.C. Moreover, the Sphinx conjuncted with the
constellation Leo in 10,500 B.C., but not in 3,400. This point of view conveniently supports the
New Age belief that the pyramids were not built by men, non-existent in 10,500 B.C., but by the
Anunnaki (Nephilim), the gods who visited Egypt in the 'First Time'.

"In 2500 BC... the southern shaft of the King's Chamber aligns perfectly with Al
Nitak (Zeta Orionis) at an altitude of 45 degrees. But at this point in time the other two
stars of Orion's Belt and the Milky Way do not align directly with the other two
pyramids and the Nile.
"If we 'shift' the sky around..., continually going back in time, we find a perfect
match between the pyramids and the three stars of Orion's Belt and the Nile and the
Milky way at 10,500 BC !
"As 2500 BC marks the zenith of Al Nitak (i.e.. when it is at its highest point above
the horizon), 10,500 BC marks Al Nitak's nadir (i.e., when it is at its lowest point
above the horizon). Is this simply coincidence?
"The Sphynx (about half a mile away from the pyramids) points due east and in the
pre-dawn of 10,500 BC it would have pointed directly at its celestial counterpart - the
constellation of Leo.
"Therefore, at the moment of sunrise on the vernal equinox in 10,500 BC there
would be a conjunction involving the three Pyramids and the Orion's Belt and a
conjunction involving the Sphynx and the constellation of Leo. This conjunction
marks the beginning of the 'Age of Leo' and the beginning of the upwards precessional
cycle of Orion's Belt.
"Can all this be accidental?
"It seems unlikely that such engineering and astronomical precision can be purely
coincidental. Either the Pharaohs had much more knowledge than we even thought
 remotely possible or, perhaps, a civilisation more ancient than the Egyptians (circa
10,500 BC, maybe?) once existed and was endowed with great knowledge.
"Either way, it seems that the epoch of 10,500 BC is being commemorated by the
Pyramids and the Sphynx for some reason." (1024)

Adrian Gilbert maintains that, at the summer solstice in the year 2000, the sun was directly over
the outstretched hand of Orion, a phenomenon which last occurred in 10,880 B.C. at which time
Atlantis was destroyed. Moreover, when Gilbert held an Ankh cross over the Great Pyramid on
June 21, 2000, the sun formed a perfect 'Eye of Horus' over the pyramid.

"...the Pyramid Khafre on 21st June and in time to see it crowned by the sun.
"As the sun climbed higher in the sky, so the shadows departed and standing back a
little we could see its reflection on the casing stones. Immediately this brought to mind
the Masonic image of the eye in the triangle or pyramidion. This glyph is used in the
Great Seal of the United States of America. One wonders if Franklin D. Roosevelt,
who had the seal of the United States put on the dollar bill had any idea of the
significance of its symbolism. As he was a 33rd degree Freemason, one may suspect
that he did. However he probably did not realise that the eye of God (to the ancient
Egyptians the Eye of Horus, i.e. the sun) would sit upon the Khafre Pyramid in this
way precisely at the summer solstice...
"To see the sun rise and set behind the capstone of a pyramid..." (1017, "Opening
the Stargate," Part 4)

To Gilbert, this signaled the opening of a 'stargate' in heaven through which mortals may pass into
immortality:

"Today all this has changed. Because of precession the sun is no longer in Leo at
the solstice but on the cusp of Gemini and Taurus. In fact it now stands on a position
in the zodiac exactly over the outstretched 'hand' of Orion. Curiously enough this
position (which I call the 'shake-hands position') is where according to the ancients
there exists one of the gates of heaven. There were in fact two of these imaginary
gateways at the points where the ecliptic, or pathway of the sun, crosses over the
Milky Way. One of these gates was in Gemini over the hand of Orion and the other in
Sagittarius over the sting of Scorpio.
"This gateway seems to be what is symbolised by the Sahu (Orion) figure as
inscribed on the Benben stone of Amenemhet III at the Cairo Museum. He is depicted
as a small walking figure holding a sceptre in one hand and cupping a star in the
other. This star or 'S'ba' to give it its Egyptian name has a dual meaning as a
hieroglyphic. On the one hand it means 'star' but on the other it means 'gateway'. Thus
Orion is correctly shown holding in his hand what we might call a 'stargate'.
"Now the positioning of the sun at the solstice at a stargate is a very extraordinary
phenomenon and unique to our present age. It has not happened since around 10,880
BC at around the time when many believe the destruction of Atlantis occurred. The
fact that this is now occurring and is somehow linked with the Khafre pyramid seems
to me to be an important portent and to symbolise the 'opening of a gate in heaven'.
This I don't take in some sci-fi way as symbolising the arrival of aliens or some such
but it is, I believe, symbolic of the birth of a new age of mankind. I take it so
symbolise the beginning of a new era and a new cycle of possibilities." (1030)

Osiris means 'place of the eye'; his place is in Orion. When the sun directly over Orion at high
noon, the Stargate opens, through which Osiris and the pharaohs ascended to the heavens. This
is the meaning of the all-seeing eye in the capstone of the pyramid on the dollar bill. According
to David Calvert-Orange, author of Isis, Osiris, Divine Kingship and Resurrection, '...the Great
Pyramid of Khufu or Cheops...was nothing more than an elaborate Stargate to effect the
transmutation of the soul of the dead Pharaoh into the essence of light to enable its assimilation
to Osiris in his heavenly abode of Orion." (1032)

Returning to Adrian Gilbert, just as Osiris and the pharaohs ascended through a stargate,
Gilbert avers that Jesus Christ ascended in like manner: "Whilst writing Magi he stumbled upon
something else, which is that the Ascension of Jesus, which according to the Bible took place
40 days after the Resurrection, would have happened on the precise day that the sun was placed
in the northern stargate position: that is to say over the upstretched right-hand of Orion."
Curiously, there is no mention in the Bible of stargates, pyramids, cartouches, Orion, ankh
crosses or even the position of the sun at the scene of Jesus ascension. (Acts 1) No matter. Mr.
Gilbert prefers to expound the Hermetic doctrine of the soul's journey after death instead of the
Biblical testimony on this subject: "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this
the judgment." (Heb. 9:27)

"Having traversed the planetary spheres, before the ascending soul could get back
to God, it had to pass through the sphere of the fixed stars, known today as the
'Celestial Sphere'. This represents the 'Higher Heaven' and lies beyond the
jurisdiction of our local solar system with its governors the sun, moon and planets.
To get to this Higher Heaven, which could in any case only be approached if it had
successfully passed through the spheres of the Lower, the soul had to find its way
to a gate. According to the ancient cosmology there were two of these: one was in
the northern hemisphere and the other was in the southern. These 'stargates' were
positioned at the points in the sky where the ecliptic, the pathway of the sun,
crosses the Milky Way. Therefore one of these positions was in Sagittarius, above
the sting of Scorpio, and the other was in Gemini, above the outstretched arm or
'club' of Orion." (1017, "Opening the Stargate," Part 1)

We have mentioned in a previous section, Capricorn, that in the Age of Aries the Gates of the
Sun were Capricorn and Cancer but, due to the precession of the equinoxes, those gates,
whereby souls descend and ascend to heaven (they say), are now, in the Age of Pisces, Gemini
and Sagittarius. In other words, the constellations of Gemini and Sagittarius are on the point
where the ecliptic (path of the sun) intersects with the Milky Way (the Galactic Stellar Womb).
In Hermetic doctrine, the Orion factor determines when the stargate opens. According to Adrian
Gilbert and Graham Hancock, the Stargate opened in the year 2,000 with the sun at the stargates
at the solstices, the northern stargate being Orion. This event has not happened since the 'First
Time' some 12,880 years ago.

"The northern stargate over the upstretched 'hand' of Orion is exactly at the cusp
of Gemini and Taurus; the southern stargate is at the cusp of Sagittarius and
Scorpio...
"Today the sun stands exactly between Sagittarius and Scorpio at the winter
solstice and over the hand of Orion at the time of the summer solstice. In other
words the positions of the stargates correspond with the sun's positions at the
solstices. This is the first time this has happened since c.10,880 BC when the gates
were in the opposite positions, with the Orion gate in the south and the Scorpio
gate in the north. This latter date, c.10,880 BC, corresponds closely with the ending
of the last ice age and the legendary destruction of Atlantis [According to Plato, the
Greek philosopher, the last phase of this destruction took place around 9500 BC].
 Thus we can say with some assurity that last time the Sun was positioned at the
stargates at the solstices corresponded with major changes in the earth's climate.
(1017, Adrian Gilbert, "Opening the Stargate," Part 2)

"...Curiously the epoch of the year 2000, which figures in these Christian prophecies
[of Edgar Cayce], also coincides with the Last Time (or highest point) in the great
upwards cycle of the belt stars of the Orion constellation, just as the epoch of the
eleventh millennium BC coincided with the First Time (or lowest point) of that cycle."
(Graham Hancock) (236:500)

STARGATE

In the 1994 movie, Stargate, a magical portal is opened to "the other side of the known
universe" through the alignment of symbols on an ancient Egyptian device. The central
character, an Egyptologist played by actor, James Spader, is hired to unlock the mysterious
hieroglyphs on an Egyptian artifact consisting of a number of symbols enclosed within a
circular frame. Spader discovers that the images on the outer frame are not hieroglyphs
(Egyptian writing characters) but star constellations. The final symbols to be deciphered turn
out to be the constellation of Orion and a pyramid with the sun directly overhead and two
priests praying before it. The sun over the pyramid means that the Stargate opens when the sun
is over Orion at high noon. This Stargate apparatus to transport human beings through time to
another world is described in the following synopsis of the movie.

"Daniel Jackson is taken to a converted missile silo in Creek Mountain,

Colorado. There, Catherine, another Egyptologist and a physics professor show
Jackson a large circular artefact with two main sets of writing; one on an outer track
around the artefact's circumference, and another on an inner track which has
symbols which also appear on a cartouche in the centre. Jackson says only the inner
track contains hieroglyphs, which when translated describe how Ra, the Egyptian
God of the sun, was banished for all time when an object called a Stargate was
buried...
"Jackson researches ancient languages to try and find the meaning of the outer
track, but his extensive search is in vain. However, looking at the astrology section
of a newspaper he realises that one of the symbols on the outer track matches the
constellation Orion. The symbols on the outer track, he realises, are not a written
language but star constellations. Jackson presents his discovery to General West
and the team of Air Force officers, explaining the seven symbols on the cartouche
denote a course. Six symbols show a destination; to specify a particular point
within a three-dimensional object, one requires six different points on the surface
of that object. Two points on both sides of the object's length draw a straight line,
which intersects with similar lines along the width and depth provide one particular
point. The seventh symbol, Jackson says, is a point of origin.
"The cartouche contains six specific constellations, but one which is separate
from the others is a picture of two priests praying before a Pyramid with the
sun over them, which Jackson says is most likely the point of origin. One
scientist rejects Jackson's claims, saying the point of origin isn't on 'the device'.
Asking what the device is, the military personnel show Jackson the large ring
which was found in the film openings. Catherine explains 'It's your Stargate.'
"The group go into the control center of the Stargate, where Catherine explains
the object which her father found is made of a material not found anywhere else on
Earth. The Stargate contains all the symbols which were present on the outer circle
 of the artefact, and Jackson identifies the point of origin; previously undetected as it
does not contain as much detail as the symbol on the cartouche.
"Entering the now complete sequence of seven symbols, the Stargate opens in a
blaze of energy, creating a portal. A probe is sent through, which records the other
side of the portal is on the other side of the known universe and is capable of
sustaining human life. The Stargate closes a short time after the probe is sent
through." (1033)

To make a long story short, a reconnaissance team was transported back in time to "the other
side of the known universe" where it remained stranded until James Spader deciphered the code
which transported them back to earth. Predictably, this mediocre production was a prelude to
even more noxious science fiction concerning ancient gods who descended to earth from the
star system Sirius in the constellation of Orion. A retired CBS director, Mark Roberts, revealed
the real Stargate agenda in Stargate: The Real One:

"The word Stargate has become a merging point between fiction & reality. The
cinema Stargate was an ancient time-dimensional doorway to the cosmos ~ with
knowledge of ancient writings & star constellations as the keys to opening the
gate... The reality Stargate is an ancient depiction of a cosmic-portal painted at the
entry to a cave containing one of the most ancient representations of the
constellation known as the Pleiades. The star map and other ancient paintings &
features within the cave have provided the keys to connect over four decades of
study involving: decades of field archaeology linked to an ancient alphabet;
Egyptian hieroglyphs; ancient symbols for the star system known as Sirius, revered
as the Star Goddess Sothis by the ancient Egyptians; and links to an even more
ancient culture ~ with a directional key to a prime base of the cosmic visitors who
had arrived on earth at the very dawn of antiquity." (1035)

A primetime TV series based on the film features the discovery of a giant cartouche covered in
hieroglyphics which is a map of other Stargates throughout the galaxy. This important find
makes it possible for the U.S. Air Force to "battle evil throughout the universe for the good of
planet Earth." In the final episode of the Stargate series, which will air in March 2004, the
Chief of Staff of the United States Air Force will make an appearance:

"8/26/2003 - VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Air Force Chief of Staff Gen.

John Jumper stars as himself here Aug. 26 on an upcoming episode of the Sci-Fi
Channel's primetime television series 'Stargate: SG-1.' Jumper performed a handful
of lines during the day of filming. The scenes will appear in the internationally
syndicated show's season finale in March. The series depicts a fictional Cheyenne
Mountain-based, top-secret Air Force command, which battles evil throughout the
universe for the good of planet Earth." (997)

The implications of government sanction of the 'Stargate conspiracy' are staggering considering
verses in the Bible which foretell that the 'kings of the earth' will wage war against Jesus Christ
at His Second Coming. For detailed information on this defining moment of the Tribulation
period, when the occult societies will misrepresent Jesus Christ as Satan, being cast out of
heaven (Rev. 12) or the bottomless pit (Rev. 20), please refer to our report Heeding Bible

NOTES

"...Orion, the great hunter of Greek myth, was the owner of a dog. When Orion tried
to ravish the virgin goddess Artemis she produced a scorpion from the earth which
killed him and the dog. Orion was transported to the skies where he became the
constellation that bears his name today; his dog was transformed into Sirius, the Dog
Star.
"Precisely the same identification of Sirius was made by the ancient Egyptians, who
linked the Orion constellation specifically to their god Osiris. It is in Ancient Egypt
too that the character of the faithful celestial dog achieves its fullest and most explicit
mythical elaboration in the form of Upuaut, a jackal-headed deity whose name means
'Opener of the Ways'. If we follow this way opener to Egypt, turn our eyes to the
constellation of Orion, and enter the potent myth of Osiris, we find ourselves
enveloped in a net of familiar symbols.
"The reader will recall that the myth presents Osiris as the victim of a plot. The
conspirators initially dispose of him by sealing him in a box and casting him adrift on
the waters of the Nile. In this respect does he not resemble Utnapishtim, and Noah and
Coxcoxtli and all the other deluge heroes in their arks (or boxes, or chests) riding out
the waters of the flood?
"Another familiar element is the classic precessional image of the world-tree and/or
roof-pillar (in this case combined). The myth tells us how Osiris, still sealed inside his
coffer, is carried out into the sea and washed up at Byblos. The waves lay him to rest
among the branches of a tamarisk tree, which rapidly grows to a magnificent size,
enclosing the coffer within its trunk. The king of the country, who much admires the
tamarisk tree, cuts it down and fashions the part which contains Osiris into a roof
pillar for his palace. Later Isis, the wife of Osiris, removes her husband's body from
the pillar and takes it back to Egypt to undergo rebirth." (Graham Hancock, 236:254-
5)
Orion is Osiris, god of death and resurrection/transformation. Took form of wolf when he returned
from underworld. Tribe of Benjamin.

"It was a dog that brought us to these decaying times. We came here by way of
Sirius, the Dog Star, who stands at the heel of the giant constellation of Orion where it
towers in the sky above Egypt. In that land, as we have seen, Orion is Osiris, the god
of death and resurrection...
"Nor is Sirius, in his eternal station at Orion's heel, the only doggish character
around Osiris. ...Isis (who was both the wife and sister of Osiris) searched for her dead
husband's body after he had been murdered by Set (who, incidentally, was also her
brother, and the brother of Osiris). In this search, according to ancient mythological
and religious texts from all periods of Egyptian history assert that the jackal-god
Anubis ministered to the spirit of Osiris after his death and acted as his guide through
the underworld. (Surviving vignettes depict Anubis as virtually identical in appearance
to Upuaut, the [jackal-headed] Opener of the Ways.)
"Last by not least, Osiris himself was believed to have taken the form of a wolf
when he returned from the underworld to assist his son Horus in the final battle
against Set." 236:264-5

GEMINI
THE DIVINE TWINS

"Along the ecliptic is seen a picture of two youthful figures seated

side by side and at rest... Their names in Latin were Castor and
Pollux. In Greek mythology they were called Apollo and
Hercules... In Grecian mythology, Apollo and Hercules, the twin
sons of Jupiter were great heroes and had accomplished great
exploits... Here we have a picture of the dual nature and mission
of Christ... They deal with the divine and human nature... The old
Coptic name of this sign Pi Mahi, signifies 'The United,' as united
in fellowship or 'brotherhood.'" - D. James Kennedy (872:101-2)

Gemini, the Twins, takes its name from the legend of Castor and
Pollux, but it is also mythographically appropriate following
Taurus and anticipating the transition of the twin-gods, oak king
and holly king." - The Celtic Druids' Year ( 270:170)

THE SACRED MARRIAGE

In dualistic belief systems, twin deities or Dioscouri are archetypes representing the
contradictory aspects of creation: light and darkness. The Gemini twins were regarded as
homosexual deities who "served as "guiding lights for those hoping to break out of the mortal
sphere into the heavenly realm of the gods." In the same-sex culture, homosexuality and
lesbianism are stages in the evolutionary process toward androgyny.

"Remember, the serpent is still alive in the Garden of Eden. Only the heterosexual
couple was expelled." - Edward Carpenter.

"In Vedic mythology, the twin cosmic Ashwins (or Asvins), are often depicted as
twilight, one half light, the other half dark, personifying the two luminous rays
which precede the break of day, or, otherwise, the dawn of a new frame of mind.
As Romulus and Remus, they founded Rome, the center of the empire of the gods.
They were known in Greece as CASTOR AND POLLUX, who live today as the
constellation of Gemini, eternal gaiety found in the nighttime skies. They were later
called the DIOSCOURI, who, like QUETZECOATL, were also associated with the
stars, guiding lights for those hoping to break out of the mortal sphere into the
heavenly realm of the gods. Appropriately enough, the DIOSCOURI literally
embodied energy. Indeed, St. Elmo's fire - the electrical discharge from the ship's
mast seen during a thunderstorm - was believed to be a visibly discernible
manifestation of the energy of these gay Twin gods." (1008)

The exoteric version of Gemini is two young males united in the bond of brotherhood (unity);
their diversity is manifest in their natures: one twin is mortal (Castor) and the other immortal
(Pollux):

"...the Divine Twins [are] the constellation Gemini...

"Twins symbolize that which is simultaneously identical and nonidentical. They
represent duality, separation and contradiction, but also similarity, duplication and
repetition. Divine twins represent the potential energy of opposition and the great
creative force unleashed by their unification. For example, Rome was founded by
Romulus and Remus (N.B., raised by a she-wolf), in which it was necessary that
they fight and one die. The twins represent the opposites: light/dark,
extroversion/introversion, objectivity/subjectivity, action/thought, action/passion,
aggression/pacifism." (1000)

In the Egyptian Zodiac, the Gemini figures are not male twins, but male and female lovers, as
stated in Chevalier's Dictionary of Symbols: "Some Zodiacs do not employ the usual image of
two children holding hands, but depict the sign as a man and a woman or even, in the case of
the Coptic Zodiac, as a pair of lovers." (66:427) The Coptic (Egyptian) version of Gemini is
becoming prominent and is promoted by some who teach the false 'gospel in the stars'. For
example, Joseph Seiss and Robert Scott Wadsworth, a Messianic astrologer:

"Bob Wadsworth’s newsletter of January 2001 says that the two figures in Gemini,
according to the Zodiac of Dendra, are not identical twins but those of a man and
woman walking hand in hand. He goes on to say, when quoting from Joseph Seiss’
book The Gospel of the Stars, that the word Gemini in the original Hebrew, Arabic
and Syriac does not carry so much the idea of two brought forth at the same birth
as it does the idea of a long betrothal brought to its consummation in perfect
marriage. The old Coptic name of this sign signifies 'the completely joined'." (917)
In esotericism, the Gemini are not ordinary male/female lovers; they are male/female fraternal
twin lovers. In the highly irrational and perverted belief system of the dualist, the sexual union
of fraternal twins has the effect of uniting the Microcosm within itself and with the Macrocosm.
"Occultist and psychologist Carl Jung, adds: 'Alchemy...exalted the most heinous transgression
of the law, namely incest, into a symbol of the union of opposites, hoping in this way to bring
back the golden age.'" (39:177) If there is a shortage of fraternal twins, an ordinary brother and
sister will do; in either case, one twin must be immortal if the Microcosm is to unite with the
Macrocosm. As above, so below. The mortal twin becomes immortal and vice versa. This
incestuous union is called Sacred Marriage:

"In Sun we have a girl and a boy, one mortal the other immortal, who represent the
body opposed to the soul, the flesh opposed to the spirit... Creation requires that the
brother and sister unite, but this must be a Hieros Gamos (Sacred Marriage)
between purified partners: the mortal priestess and the immortal god, or the mortal
priest and the immortal goddess. Nichols observes that incest symbolizes one's
relation to oneself, therefore the Sacred Marriage - the embrace within the waters of
the unconscious - unifies the opposites within the individual; it is the alchemical
operation that 'fixes the volatile and volatilizes the fixed,' immortalizes the mortal
and mortalizes the immortal, for only alchemy can unite the contradictories without
the opposites annihilating each other." (1000)

Which explains why one Gemini twin points to the sky and the other to the earth: " In addition,
the boy's right hand is turned skyward in the classical attitude of celestial invocation, whereas
the girl's left hand is turned downward in chthonic invocation. Thus the children unite the
forces of Heaven and the Abyss, the astral spirits and the elemental spirits." (1000) According
to Webster's dictionary, "chthonic" is a Greek word meaning "in or under the earth…
Designating, or relating to gods or spirits of the underworld, esp. gods of the Greeks."

In the ancient mystery religions, the sacred prostitute served in the temple as a medium between
the gods and men. According to The Sacred Prostitute: Eternal Aspect of the Feminine, the
union between sacred prostitute, embodiment of the goddess, and king, believed to be a god,
reconciled the Microcosm with the Macrocosm.

"The 'heiros gamos,' the sacred prostitute was the votary chosen to embody the
goddess. She was the goddess' fertile womb, her passion and her erotic nature. In
the union with the god, embodied by the reigning monarch, she assured the fertility
and well-being of the land and the people... often she remained veiled and
anonymous; her raison d'être was to worship the goddess in lovemaking, thereby
bringing the goddess love into the human sphere. In this union -- the union of
masculine and feminine, spiritual and physical -- the personal was transcended and
the divine entered in. As the embodiment of the goddess in the mystical union of
the sacred marriage, the sacred prostitute...was the holy vessel wherein chthonic
and spiritual forces united." (736:39-40)

The Theosophical Glossary defines Chthonia as "Chaotic earth". In Hellenic cosmogony, the
Underworld, symbolized by the Moon goddess, is subdued and controlled by the Sun-god: "In
the sequence of tarot trumps, the Sun triumphs over the Moon, for it is Sol Invictus (the
Invincible Sun), the power of transcendent consciousness to tame the beasts of the Abyss, the
potent and wild forces... Thus Apollo defeated the Python, and brought its powerful chthonic
forces under control, but without destroying them, for the Pythia continued to fulfill her
function." (1000)
As ancient oracles were consulted by sages and emperors about strategic matters, Tarot cards
are used today for guidance by professional and amateur psychics. Carl Jung, who researched
classical oracles, coined the term "archetypes" to describe internal energy sources available to
man from the 'Universal Soul'. Each of the 78 cards of a Tarot deck represents an archetype of
one the 78 energies of the 'collective unconscious' which is alleged to be present within every
human being. The most widely used tarot deck was developed by A. E. Waite (1857-1942), a
member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and a prolific writer on occultism and
magic. The Lovers card in the Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot deck represents the Gemini Twins in
the sense of a 'sacred marriage' between brother and sister. Some esotericists, however, deny
that this involves sexual contact:

"Astrologically, The Lovers is principally related to Venus, the goddess of air,

and Gemini which, in esoteric astrology, she rules. Importantly, Gemini is also the
first sign of relationship in the zodiac; the relationship between siblings...
"The Lovers follows a series of five very important, very powerful cards, three of
which are masculine and two feminine. When it appears in a reading therefore, The
Lovers can signal some sort of synthesis between the different aspects of make and
female that each of the previous cards represents. It signifies a sense of challenge,
newness, opposition and heightened awareness; and an integration between the
powerful forces that have been unleashed and experienced (sometimes
unconsciously) to this point...
"The sense of duality inherent in The Lovers is strengthened through its
association with Gemini, the sign of The Twins.... According to the myth of Castor
and Pollux, the story behind the constellation of Gemini, when the mortal Castor
died, his immortal twin brother Pollux begged his father to let him join Castor in
the Underworld. His father Zeus agreed, on the proviso that they spent half their
time in the Underworld and half in the heavens.
"...Gemini draws our attention to the importance of sibling relationships, and to
their powerful impact on the patterning of all our relationships with friends and
lovers. The two lovers in the Waite-Smith deck represent...an arrangement of the
brother-sister pair; one aspect of which is the 'sacred marriage', the marriage
between brother and sister. The 'sacred marriage' of The Lovers really represents a
relationship of equality between two individuals, a type of relationship that is
largely absent from the Major Arcana." (851)

By way of explanation, the Waite-Smith deck "was a collaborative effort of Arthur Edward
Waite, a member of the Golden Dawn and a young artist and fellow member of the Golden
Dawn, Pamela Colman Smith. Under the guidance of Waite, Colman undertook, for token
payment, a series of seventy-eight allegorical paintings described by Waite. Symbols from
various occult philosophies were used in the design of the cards. What followed was a deck that
consisted of 78 Tarot cards: 22 Major Arcana, 56 Lesser Arcana." (1001) The Tarot cards are a
visual representation of the Qabbalah, the twenty-two Major Arcana trump cards of the Tarot
reflecting the Qabalistic Tree of Life in which there are twenty-two links that connect the ten
Sefirot, representing degrees of initiation, and twenty-two Hebrew letters which are the basis of
occult numerology.

The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn was co-founded in 1887 by William Wynn Westcott
and S. L. MacGregor Mathers, who was excommunicated by Westcott for his association with
Aleister Crowley, a British intelligence agent. Crowley had also been a member of the
Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn before he founded the British branch of the Ordo Templis
Orientalis (Order of the Temple of the East). One account states: "Mathers sent an astral
vampire to attack Crowley. Crowley then counterattacked with an army of demons led by
Beelzebub.... W. B. Yeats assumed control of the Second Order. He did attempt to restore order
to the society, but it was so splintered that Yeats' efforts were nearly fruitless. Yeats played a
prominent part in the conflict between Crowley and Mathers." (1004)

It is ironic that the occult brotherhoods, which are beleaguered with internal conflicts and power
struggles, think they know the way to peace for the rest of the world. One occultist, whilst
recognizing the fact that initiation does not change character, opines that this is only true of
Western systems, whereas Eastern occultism incorporates yoga to purify and perfect character.

"The rise and fall of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn is thought, by some,
to portray the history of many occult groups. They attract members of high
intellectual and mystical caliber, but eventually suffer internal dissensions because
their system of instruction and development does not fundamentally change the
character of the members. Basically the talented and psychologically adjusted
individuals strive to enhance their talents and achievements, but there is no
elimination of the defects and weaknesses of others which will inevitably weaken
the organizational structure. Here a comparison of Eastern and Western initiations
may be made. The Eastern initiations incorporate various yoga systems which
purify and perfect the individual; whereas, Western initiations do not include this
essential preliminary training. A.G.H." (1004)

If it true that Eastern yoga produces character, then how is it that Aleister Crowley, who wrote
Eight Lectures on Yoga and, according to Israel Regardie "mastered most technical forms of
spiritual growth," taught his disciples, "Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law"?
Compare:

Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with
all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the
second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. On these two
commandments hang all the law and the prophets. - Matt. 22:37-40

A compelling expose of the popular rock group, Led Zeppelin, provides impressive
documentation that lead singers, Jimmy Page and Robert Plant, are steeped in the writings of
Aleister Crowley. According to Thomas Friend, Led Zeppelin performances were visual and
musical lessons from Qabalah as expounded by Crowley. What follows is an account of one
performance from Friend's book, Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and Led
Zeppelin. The author describes in vivid detail how the band communicates the secret doctrine of
the sacred marriage to their audiences:

"As The Hermit (Jimmy Page) stands up, you see his face in the midst of a violent
surge on the guitar with the violin bow, with Robert Plant belting out yells into a
microphone. The camera then zooms in on Jimmy's face, leaving all the surrounding
area out of the picture, making it a circular picture, just like the round emanations of
the Qabalah... In the Qabalah chapter, you read that the father impregnates the mother
and brings forth the son and daughter. What you are about to see is the acting out of
the facts presented in the Qabalah.
"The first face you see when Page stands up is Kether. The faces get younger as
each face manifests itself in sequence. The first three faces are more on the gray side.
This represents Macroprosopus, the Crown, the father and mother, and the Silver Star.
 The second set of three faces represents the Rosicrucians. The second and third set of
three faces, four through nine, represent the son, Microprosopus. The seventh through
tenth faces, the ones without beards, represent the Hermetic Order of the Golden
Dawn. The tenth face by itself represents Malkuth, the Devil's people. The tenth face
has a pentagram between the eyes. This matches the teaching of the Qabalah. The
fourth album inner cover has the hexagram in the lantern. This matches the teaching of
the Qabalah as well. The macrocosm is represented by the hexagram and the
microcosm by the pentagram. After the tenth face, there is an eleventh one, not on the
Qabalah. What this face means, the youngest one, is the son, Microposopus. The next
thing you see is a fetus with the little crown at the top of the forehead, as is commonly
referred to. Then you see the moon. After the moon appears, a bold of lightning
flashes across the screen. What all of this means is the union of the goddess, the
moon, with the sun (lightning caused by heat from the sun), the god, brings forth
the son. Aleister Crowley wrote about lightning coming from Satan in Liber Samekh:
'O Lion-Serpent Sun The Beast, that whirlest forth, a thunderbolt, begetter of
Life!...Thou Satan-Sun Hadit...'There it is, he who sends the thunderbolt is the begetter
of life, and his name is Satan, the sun and Hadit of The Book of the Law. After the
thunderbolt, the moon disappears, and the eleventh face appears again. What has
happened at this point, is he has married the daughter, Malkuth, who has become one
with him. He then takes the place of the tenth face. Then the faces begin to grow older
as the trip back up the Qabalah takes place. As you see, if you are watching the film,
the face with the pentagram between the eyes has disappeared. Again, that is become
the son married her and she became one with him. The ascension hits each of the ten
emanations of the Qabalah until it reaches the original face, which is Kether. Crowley
himself said that Kether was on the summit of the mystic mountain: 'Visions are real,
inspirations are real, revelation is real, and so is genius; but these are from Kether, and
the highest climber on the mystic mountain is he who will obtain the finest view, and
from its summit all things will be shown unto him.' Who is it that hops around from
one mystic mountain to another? It is the Devil and his disciples.
"The next thing that The Hermit (Jimmy Page) on the mountain summit does is
bring his staff, which is a Magick wand, over his head to his right and then back to his
left. This, I believe, expresses the concept of the Qabalah that teaches that though the
religions of the world differ in appearance, they are still all one. ...the Hermit on the
inside cover of Led Zeppelin's fourth album is none other than Satan himself; beyond
any doubt." (982:394-5)

Qabalah (also spelled cabala, kabbala, kabbalah) is a system of Jewish mysticism which
originated in Babylon and was revived in the Languedoc (South France) at the end of the 12th
century, whence it spread to Spain. With the expulsion of the Jews from from Spain (1492) and
Portugal (1497), Qabalah spread like a revival throughout Europe. Qabalah represents various
Jewish mystical traditions which coalesced in the 12th and 13th centuries to form a coherent
system of mystical doctrine and practice. A complex system of numerology, letters, signs and
symbols was devised to communicate the secret doctrine. For example, the occult trinity Father,
Mother and Son, is expressed in the Tetragrammaton (IHVH) and Sephirot.

"Horus is the child, or 'V' in the Tetragrammaton,

IHVH. Again he is Microprosopus, represented by the
fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, and ninth Sephiroth.
...the tenth Sephira [is] Malkuth, mankind, the earth, the
lesser world, the bride, the queen, the wife of
Microprosopus...
 "The final aspect of the Qabalah, the creation, the
earth, the daughter of the goddess, the lower 'H' in the
Tetragrammaton, IHVH, Malkuth is the natural soul. It
is called the Microcosm, whereas the rest of the
Qabalah, being the universe, the god and the goddess, is
the Microcosm. S.L. MacGregor Mathers wrote
concerning Malkuth in The Qabalah Unveiled: 'The
number 10. ...It is called MLKVTH, Malkuth, the
Kingdom, and also the Queen, Matrona, the inferior
Mother, the Bride of Microprosopus; and SHKINH,
Shekinah, represented by the Divine Name Adonai,
ADNI, and among the angelic hosts by the kerubim,
KRVBIM. Now each of these Sephiroth will be in a
certain degree androgynous for it will be feminine or
receptive with regard to the Sephira which immediately
precedes it in the sephirotic scale, and masculine or
transmissive with regard to the Sephirah which
immediately follows it...'
"Mathers presents Malkuth as a reflection of the
goddess, or mother. He wrote: 'The bride, the inferior H,
He, is said to be a reflection of the mother, the supernal
H, He, in the Tetragrammaton; just as Microprosopus is
said to be the reflection of the Macroprosopus. By
analogy, the son and his bride are the same as the god
and goddess...'
"Malkuth is the creation, specifically the people,
according to occultists. The son wants to marry his
bride and carry her back up the Qabalah. It is the son
becoming one with the mother, then reverting back to
his role as father in Chokmah, becoming one with
Binah and drawing her back into Kether, the godhead
and universe complete in one." (982:236-9)

The Mother, who is the feminine aspect of the Qabalistic godhead, is sometimes called the
Shekhina, a concept that turns up in pseudo-Christian teachings as the Holy Spirit. For example,
based on the Gemini sign in the Egyptian Zodiac, which looks like a sacred marriage, and
Joseph Seiss' various translations of the word Gemini, and the false gospel in the stars, one
Gnostic monk deduces that the Holy Spirit must be feminine.

“When we move forward and consider the witness of the stars where no man’s
hand can make alterations, the feminine gender of the Holy Spirit becomes
more likely. Moses, in writing the book of Genesis, proclaims that the
luminous celestial bodies in the darkness of night’s heaven and the sun’s
brilliant light are for signs. Signs are symbols that point to something beyond
themselves. Half of the major constellations are named with Hebrew words
that are feminine. In fact, within and in proximity to many of these major
constellations are signs that point to a male-female interrelation. Bob
Wadsworth’s newsletter of January 2001 says that the two figures in Gemini,
according to the Zodiac of Dendra, are not identical twins but those of a man
and woman walking hand in hand. He goes on to say, when quoting from
Joseph Seiss’ book The Gospel of the Stars, the word Gemini in the original
Hebrew, Arabic and Syriac does not carry so much the idea of two brought
forth at the same birth as it does the idea of a long betrothal brought to its
consummation in perfect marriage. The old Coptic name of this sign signifies
'the completely joined'. The constellation of Virgo, which represents the
woman about to bring forth, has above it in the sky the constellation Bootes
 that is named with a masculine noun. Peter, in his second epistle, calls light in
darkness and the dawning sun a “more sure word of prophecy” than even the
voice from heaven heard on the Mount of Transfiguration. (II Peter 1:19)”
(917)

EQUINOX

"...equilibrium (unity and synthesis), according to Masonic doctrine, is man's ultimate destiny."
( 41:87)

"The perfect equilibrium of spirit and matter is symbolized

by the six-pointed star, which is again only another form
of the Square and Compass, each now having a base-line
from which to form a triangle." (625:215)

The dualist is about the business of creating unity in a world of duality – not by annihilating the
duality, but by transforming it into ‘twins’-- two that are really one. In the sign of Gemini,
Thesis and Antithesis find a point of intersection and become One and the Same. The fusion of
male and female under the sign of the Gemini Twins is also the fusion of the creator
(Macrocosmos) with his creation (Microcosmos). The Six-Pointed Star is the symbol of this
fusion.

"...the hexagram represents the macrocosm, written in The Qabalah Unveiled: '...the
symbol of the interlaced triangles, forming the six-pointed star, is called the Sign of
the macrocosm, or of the creation of the greater world.' Eliphaz Levi also wrote of it in
Transcendental Magic: 'These two triangles, combined in a single figure, which is the
six-pointed star, form the sacred symbol of Solomon's Seal, the resplendent Star of the
Macrocosm. The notion of the Infinite and the Absolute is expressed by this sign,
which is the grand pantacle - that is to say, the most simple and complete abridgement
of the science of all things.'" (982:396)

The sacred marriage of the Gemini Twins produces the divine androgyne, whom the occult
perceives as God. Androgynes have both male and female sexual characteristics and organs,
and may also be called hermaphrodites, a term derived from the Egyptian god, Hermes
Trismegistus. Many occult symbols express this duality: the two-faced Janus, two-headed eagle,
and the symbol of the Gemini Twins (), which is eerily reminiscent of the Twin Towers:


"The pillars of Hermes, or those of Hercules, or the so-called Jachin and Boaz
columns of the Cabala, are all symbols deriving from the great myth of the
Gemini... The Gemini represent creative Nature (Natura naturans) and created
Nature (Natura naturata), and this duality is sometimes illustrated in tales by a
being that wears a mask [cf. sacred marriage rite], or by a Protean capable of
turning into a giant, a man or an animal... At times, two different conceptions of the
Gemini can be distinguished (as in the parallel myths of the primordial and
androgynous being): the 'Heavenly Twin', expressive of opposites, fused together
and integrated into Oneness (represented by the spherical or perfect being); and the
'Earthly Twin' displaying the break, the split (as in two-headed Janus, or tri-form
Hecate, etc.), that is, opposites in conflict or at least in dissidence... According to
 the megalithic conception...the mountain of Mars (or Janus) which rises up as a
mandorla of the Gemini is the locale of inversion - the mountain of death and
resurrection; the mandorla is another sign of the Inversion and of interlinking, for it
is formed by the intersection of the circle of earth with the circle of heaven.
This mountain has two peaks, and every symbol or sign alluding to this 'situation of
Inversion' is marked by duality or by twin heads. Two-headed eagles and cocks are
also found in this context, the general symbolism of which is that of alternating
contradiction: positive/ negative, or low/high-pitched. All these are symbols of the
harmonious ambiguity of 'thesis and antithesis, paradise and inferno, love and hate,
peace and war, birth and death, praise and insult, clarity and obscurity, scorching
rocks and swamps, surrounding the fountains and water of salvation'." ( 48:116)

In his magazine titled Equinox, Aleister Crowley wrote that the task of the magician is to realize
the Hermetic axiom, as above, so below:

"Aleister Crowley, in his Equinox, quoted an ancient magician named Hermes, who
spoke of the Microcosm being like the Macrocosm, and vice versa: 'That which is
below is like that which is above, and that which is above is like that which is
below...'Aleister Crowley went on to say that the objective of the magician is to
unite the two: '...the object of any magick ceremony is to unite the Macrocosm and
the Microcosm.'" (982:395-6)

Equinox means 'equal night' and supposedly represents the time of the year when the
Microcosm and Macrocosm are in equilibrium. The Winter and Summer Solstices are the
longest and shortest days of the year, whereas the Autumn and Spring Equinoxes have
equal night and day. The sign of Gemini once marked the time of the equinox. "[Gemini's
Twins] Castor and Pollux...[s]ix thousand years ago...served as indicators of the first new
moon of the year. They marked the equinox, the time of year when day and night were of
equal length." ( 279:80)

In Bloodline of the Holy Grail, Laurence Gardiner, equates the Spring Equinox with the
festival of Beltane, which is curious because the Equinox is March 21 (in the northern
hemisphere) whereas Beltane is May 1 or May Day. In Druidry, Lucifer (Baal) rises from
the underworld on May 1st/Beltane. Interestingly, in the year 2005, Beltane, May Day and
Easter will occur simultaneously on May 1! This is no coincidence, but the result of a
worldwide reform of the calendar that has been underway courtesy of the Planet Art
Network (PAN) World Thirteen Moon Calendar Change Peace Movement. On July 26,
2004, a trial period of one year will begin culminating on July 25, 2005 when the Gregorian
calendar will be officially replaced with the Thirteen Moons Calendar, which is the esoteric
calendar of the Celts. [Heeding Bible Prophecy: Calendar Reform]

"Now that the new millennium has fully engaged the human mind, the second
definitive wave of the World Thirteen Moon Calendar Change Peace Movement is
being launched, The Campaign for the New Time. This Campaign consists of a
preparatory four-year cycle, 2000-2004, the Campaign itself, plus a one-year trial
period. The goal of the four-year Campaign is universal calendar reform, the
replacement of the Gregorian by the Thirteen Moon Calendar, effective Blue
Crystal Storm, July 26, 2004. To assure the success of this unprecedented move on
the part of humanity, the calendar reform must include the one-year trial period,
during which time the entire species will be operating by a new standard, the
harmonic Thirteen-moon 28-day calendar. 'If you never try it, you’ll never know
 what it is.' is the slogan which describes the Campaign’s target year: July 26, 2004-
July 25, 2005, an entire year without the Gregorian '30 days hath September...', but
instead, Thirteen Moons of Peace." - 417

Since the festivals of Easter and Beltane both celebrate the rising of Baal (Lucifer) from
the underworld, it is conceivable that these pagan feasts coincided prior to the Gregorian
calendar. It was also on the feast of Beltane that the sacred marriage rite was performed by
King Arthur with his half-sister, Morgaine, who, as the sacred 'sister-bride' embodied the
Celtic Moon Goddess and goddess of Nature, Cerridwin. (In the movie, Mists of Avalon,
Morgaine, as the young priestess of Avalon was disguised with a mask and tattoos.) The
sacred marriage ritual, which was performed at the festival of Beltane, produced the Celtic
Christ, Modred. Gardner hastens to explain that this degenerate act was not really incest,
but a holy rite in honor of the androgynous Father-Mother in heaven.

"Writers have sometimes deemed Arthur's sexual relationship with his half-sister
Morgaine to be incestuous--but this is not the way it was regarded in Celtic Britain.
At that time, the anciently perceived dual nature of God prevailed, as did the
equally ancient principle of the 'sacred sister-bride'--so revered in the holy ritual of
Mesopotamia. In this regard, the Prayer of the Celts began, 'Our Father-Mother in
the heavens'. In conjunction with this, specifically defined rites were performed to
denote the mortal incarnation of the 'dual male-female entity'. As the earthly
manifestation of the goddess Cerridwin,...Morgaine represented the female aspect
of the duality. Arthur was her true male counterpart in the established royal
tradition of the Pharaohs. On the festival of Beltane (the spring equinox), Arthur
was apprehended as a god in human form and obliged to participate in a ritual of
sacred intercourse between the twin aspects of the incarnate Father-Mother. In
view of Arthur and Morgaine's supposed divinity during this rite, any male
offspring from the union would be deemed the 'Celtic Christ', and would be duly
anointed as such. By virtue of this, although Arthur was destined to become the
prominent subject of romantic history, it was his son Modred who held the highest
spiritual position: he was designated Christ of Britain; the ordained Archpriest of
the Sacred Kindred, and an anointed Fisher King.... Contrary to all myth and
legend, it was the dying Archpriest Modred (not Arthur) who was carried from the
field by his mother Morgaine's Holy Sisters." ( 29:205-6)

Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter of his father, or the
daughter of his mother... Deuteronomy 27:22

Arthur, who with Morgaine produced the 'Celtic Christ' in his era, is archetypal of a future king
who will perform the sacred marriage rite which will, in turn, produce another Christ figure.
Richard Hinckley Allen wrote in Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning that in Egyptian lore the
Gemini Twins were referred to as ''Two Sprouting Plants", an allusion to the demonic bloodline
spawned by the Nephilim in Genesis 6.

"Some of the Jews ascribed [the Gemini Twins] to the tribe of Benjamin,... The
Egyptians as Two Sprouting Plants; and Brown reproduces a Euphratean
representation of a couple of small, naked, male child-figures, one standing upon its
head and the other standing upon the former, feet to feet; the original twins being the
sun and moon, when the one is up the other is generally down." (927:223-4 )

The French surname 'Plantard' means 'sapling', but in the Typhonian tradition which unlocks the
meaning of the Plantard crest, the name signifies a young plant which has its roots in the
underworld. Who then are the 'Two Sprouting Plants' which will produce the coming Christ? We
cannot say for certain, but important clues to help to unravel this mystery are found in the section
Antichrist in Virgo.

It is possible that 'Thomas' Plantard will present himself as the twin of Jesus, a dualistic concept
which is the theme of the false Gospel of Thomas.

"In the Syriac-speaking culture of upper Mesopotamia and Syria the apostle was
called Judas Thomas. Thomas (Tau'ma) means twin in Syriac, a form of the Aramaic
which was the language of Jesus and his followers. And Didymus, a name by which
the apostle is also called in the gospel of John, means twin in Greek. Perhaps some
regarded the two as blood brothers. Perhaps the twinship was regarded as spiritual or
symbolic. Sometimes, as in the Christian Gnostic systems, Thomas seems to be the
this-worldly reflection or image of a divine savior-figure, an earthly body inhabited by
a spirit like the savior's. In any event Thomas became a focus of special reverence...
"The Gospel of Thomas is a collection of sayings, found near Nag Hammadi in
Egypt in 1945 -- sayings that Jesus is supposed to have entrusted to his 'twin,' which
are sometimes close to those familiar to readers of the canonical New Testament, but
often strikingly unfamiliar." (1031)

Gnostic Dualism maintains that Lucifer is the 'good twin' and Jesus is the 'evil twin', "'twinness'
being a symbol of the inherent duality of manifest existence. The one who heralds the dawning
and the Sun (God), and the one who heralds the departure of the light; the coming of the darkness
and it's ancient terrors." This would explain current attempts by academia and the media to
devalue Jesus Christ as an effeminate, promiscuous and jealous of other apostles, such as James,
Thomas, John the Beloved or John the Baptist who, in esoteric doctrine, was the true messiah.

Twin Gates

The Gates of the Sun are twin gates or pillars which stand in the Milky Way and connect the earth
with the heavens. Cancer and Capricorn, the solstices, were once the Gates of the Sun and, as
such, they represented opposites. However, now the Gates of the Sun are Gemini and Sagittarius
which are the equinoxes, thereby representing equality and equilibrium as opposed than diversity
and disharmony, typified by the solstices, Cancer and Capricorn. This progression from
Cancer/Capricorn to Gemini/Sagittarius signifies that whatever used to be opposites are now
equals. In other words, discarnate souls which once incarnated into bodies in the sign of Cancer as
opposites (division of sexes) now enter into incarnation in Gemini as androgynes.

The Twin Pillars of Jachin and Boaz are symbols of the Gates of the Sun which connect the earth
to the heavens. A Masonic book published in 1855 titled The Historical Landmarks and Other
Evidences of Freemasonry provides evidence that the Gates of the Sun are presently at the
equinoxes:

"'The [Masonic] lodge is a representation of King Solomon's Temple and the

Temple was calculated to symbolize the maternal human body, wherein the
candidate must enter to be born again. ...a Masonic book, The Historical
Landmarks and Other Evidences of Freemasonry, declares... 'The two
pillars...represent two imaginary columns, supposed to be placed at the equinoces
(sic) to support the heavens... The one on the left is called Boaz, and indicates
Osiris, or the sun, the one on the right is called Jachin, and designates Isis, the
 symbol both of the earth and its productions, and of the moon.'" (39:338-9)

It is due to the precession of the equinoxes that the Gates of the Gods, which were Cancer and
Capricorn in the Age of Aries, became Gemini and Sagittarius in our present Age of Pisces. Albert
Pike stated in Morals and Dogma that it is through these gates that souls ascend from earth to
heaven.

"The Galaxy, Macrobius says, crosses the Zodiac in two opposite points, Cancer
and Capricorn, the tropical points in the sun's course, ordinarily called the Gates of
the Sun. These two tropics, before his time [Aries], corresponded with those
constellations, but in his day [Pisces] with Gemini and Sagittarius, in consequence
of the precession of the equinoxes; but the signs of the Zodiac remained
unchanged; and the Milky Way crossed at the signs Cancer and Capricorn, though
not at those constellations.
"Through these gates souls were supposed to descend to earth and re-ascend to
Heaven. One, Macrobius says, in his dream of Scipio, was styled the Gate of Men;
and the other, the Gate of the Gods. Cancer was the former, because souls
descended by it to the earth; and Capricorn the latter, because by it they re-
ascended to their seats of immortality, and became Gods." (155:437-8)

The cover of William Cooper's book, Behold a Pale Horse, displays a Zodiac Wheel above
which there are two riders on horses. One rider is the fourth horseman of the Apocalypse who,
personifying death, rides the pale horse of Revelation 6:8: "And I looked, and behold a pale
horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was
given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with
death, and with the beasts of the earth."

The other rider ascends towards the sun on

a winged horse."...and Hell followed with
him..." The flying horse is in all probability
Pegasus, a mythological horse who flew
from earth to heaven bearing the
thunderbolt of Zeus. Pegasus was produced
by the blood of the head of Medusa, the
Gorgon, who was slain by Perseus, who
was said to have conquered death. Medusa's
ancient symbol was a ceremonial mask that
was used by sacred prostitutes to summon
the Goddess energy in the sacred marriage
rite. Note the masked rider on the pale
horse. "The Gemini represent creative
Nature (Natura naturans) and created
Nature (Natura naturata), and this duality
is sometimes illustrated in tales by a being
that wears a mask" ( 48:116)

The cover of Cooper's book illustrates the

esoteric duality of the Gemini Twins,
represented as Pegasus, the winged-horse,
and the Pale Horse (death). In classical
mythology and Romantic literature,
 Pegasus symbolized man's ascent to the
divine. As Pegasus unfolded the splendor of
his wings and soared towards heaven,
Gnostics aspire to transcend the material
world (through the Gate of the Sun) to the
ethereal realm of the Macrocosm.
Preceding that ascent, a process of death
occurs as the Microcosm is gradually
dissolved.

A final observation: On the Wheel of the Zodiac, the horses are positioned at 11:00 which in
the Druidic Zodiac Wheel is Aquarius.

NOTES

"The Mandorla, a symbol that is all but unknown today. It was used during the times of
medieval Christianity. It is an ancient symbol of two circles coming together, overlapping one
another to form an almond shape in the middle. Jensen (1996) describes the Mandorla as similar
to the image of two Mandalas (Sanskrit word for circle) merging together until an almond shape
 is formed in the center. Also known as the "Vesica Piscis", symbolizing the interactions and
interdependence of opposing worlds and forces. The circles may be taken to represent spirit and
matter or heaven and earth."

"Predating the Indo-Europeans, in ancient Sumer May Day was celebrated as the start of the
New Year, and the most sacred ritual was the re-enactment of the hieros-gamos, the sacred
marriage of the god and goddess, (An and Ki which together as a compound word, stood for
"universe") a ritual which is still continued today in the Wiccan May Pole celebrations. The
Christian Church tried to absorb May Day festivities by declaring May was 'Mary's month' and
dedicated it to virginity to try and stop sexual ventures devoted to fertility. The cosmic twins,

HEAVEN'S GATE

"The eleventh sign: Cancer, The Crab, represents 'The Completion

of the Redeemer's Work in Regard to His own.' This is a picture
of the Church possessed and held fast by Christ... One of the most
obvious things about a crab is the two claws by which it grasps
something and holds it firmly. So here we have a picture of the
Church, which is being held as a possession of Christ, taken to its
heavenly home. (Kennedy) - 872:109

"Have we not here the gathering up of the teaching of this

sign—Messiah's redeemed possessions held fast. Here we come to
the completion of His work. In CANCER we see it with reference
to His redeemed, and in the next (the last) Sign, LEO, with
reference to His enemies..." (Bullinger) - 939 (Cancer)

THE CRAB

According to D. James Kennedy's Real Meaning of the Zodiac and E.W. Bullinger, who wrote
The Witness of the Stars, the sign of Cancer reveals the Church of Christ, safe and secure in
heaven. Bullinger, the fountainhead of this polluted stream of pseudo-Christian divination,
resorted to a very convoluted line of reasoning to justify his interpretations of the Bible. In the
ancient zodiacs, Cancer was symbolized by unclean creatures — the Scarab or sacred beetle, an
Egyptian symbol of resurrection (Egyptian initiates were called scarabs because they pushed
along the egg of their regeneration) and the hawk, which was a symbol of Hermes.

"With regard to the sign of CANCER, one thing is certain, that we have not got
the original picture, or anything like it. It does not agree with the names either of its
three constellations which have come down to us, or of its stars. In the ancient
Denderah Zodiac it is represented as a Scarabaeus, or sacred beetle.* In the Zodiac
of Esneh and in a Hindu Zodiac (400 BC) it is the same.
"* The Scarabaeus, passing its earthly existence as a worm of the earth, and
thence issuing as a winged denizen of heaven, was held sacred by the Egyptians as
an emblem of the resurrection of the body.
"According to the Greeks, Jupiter placed this Crab amongst the signs of the
Zodiac. In Sir William Jones's Oriental Zodiac we meet with a crab, and an
 Zodiac. In Sir William Jones's Oriental Zodiac we meet with a crab, and an
Egyptian Zodiac found at Rome bears also the crab in this sign. The more ancient
Egyptians placed Hermanubis, or Hermes, with the head of an ibis or hawk, as the
symbol of the sign now allotted to CANCER." - 939 (Cancer)

According to Blavatsky, "Hermes [was] the god of Wisdom, known in Egypt, Syria, and
Phoenicia as Thoth, Tat, Adad, Seth, and Sat-an..., and in Greece as Kadmus... There were two
Hermes: the elder was the Trismegistus, and the second an emanation or 'permutation' of
himself; the friend and instructor of Isis and Osiris. Hermes is the god of the priestly
wisdom..." (195:xxxiii Vol I) In her book on Mysticism, Evelyn Underhill identified Hermes
Trismegistus as the legendary Grand Master of the tradition of magic. (26:153) Bullinger
insisted that the ancients perverted God's intentions when He placed the constellation of Cancer
in the heavens, which was to signify the cattle-fold of Christ.

"The Denderah name is Klaria, or the cattle-folds, and in this name we have the
key to the meaning of the sign, and to the subject of this chapter. The Arabic name
is Al Sartan, which means who holds or binds, and may be from the Hebrew to
bind together (Gen. 49:11). There is no ancient Hebrew word known for the crab. It
was classed with many other unclean creatures, and would be included in the
general term 'vermin.' The Syriac, Sartano, means the same." - 939 (Cancer)

Since Christians are nowhere in Scripture designated cattle or vermin, Bullinger reasons that
God must have had something more Biblical in mind. What God intended to portray in the sign
of Cancer was a sheep-fold. This less than stellar deduction is based on a bright cluster of stars
in the center Cancer the Crab which is called the Beehive, and means multitude or offspring.

"The Greek name is Karkinos, which means holding or encircling, as does the
Latin, Cancer, and hence is applied to the crab. In the word Khan, we have the
traveller's rest or inn; while Ker or Cer is the Arabic for encircling. - 939 (Cancer)

The word 'church' derives from the Druidic circle or fairy ring. The 'circle' is very important in
the Druid tradition. The Greek word used in the New Testament to identify the Body of Christ is
ekklesia —'the called out' or assembly. The Greek word for 'circle' is never used in the New
Testament.

"A well-known locational aspect of the fairy culture (particularly among the
druidic caste) was the stone circle or Fairy Ring. This was, in practice, how the
concept of local churches began as against the more majestic style of city temple.
The very word 'church' stems from circe, meaning 'a ring' having the root as circus,
circle and circuit." - 722:111

Alexander Hislop stated concerning the worship of the Druids, that the priests moved sideways
like the crab. And Diana, the mother goddess of the Druids, wore a crab on her breast:

"...the Druid priests went sideways in performing some of their sacred rites, as
appears from the following passage of Davies:—'The dance is performed with
solemn festivity about the lakes, round which and the sanctuary the priests move
sideways, whilst the sanctuary is earnestly invoking the gliding king, before whom
the fair one retreats upon the veil that covers the huge stones' (Druids, p.171). This
Davies regards as connected with the story of Jupiter, the father of the gods,
violating his own daughter in the form of a serpent (p.561). Now let the reader look
at what is on the breast of the Ephesian Diana, as the Mother of the gods...and he
 at what is on the breast of the Ephesian Diana, as the Mother of the gods...and he
will see a reference to her share in the same act of going aside; for there is the crab,
and how does a crab go but sideways?" - 156:322

THE BEEHIVE

Returning to Bullinger's explanation of the sign of Cancer:

"The ancient Akkadian name of the month is Su-kul-na, the seizer or possessor
of seed.
"The sign contains 83 stars, one of which is of the 3rd magnitude, and seven are
of the 4th magnitude, and the remainder of inferior magnitudes.
"In the centre of the Sign there is a remarkably bright cluster of stars, so bright
that they can be sometimes seen with the naked eye. It looks like a comet, and is
made up of a great multitude of stars. Modern astronomers have called it the
Beehive. But its ancient name has come down to us as Praesepe, which means a
multitude, offspring." - 939 (Cancer)

The Beehive would be a veiled reference to the multitude of the offspring of the Merovingian
bloodline. Fritz Springmeier stated in The Top 13 Illuminati Bloodlines: "Family trees subdivide
over the centuries until the Merovingian family tree has become a forest." He added: "Be Wise
as Serpents revealed for the first time...how all the heads (presidents) of the [Latter Day Saints]
and [Reformed Latter Day Saints] have been descendants of the Merovingian dynasty, and they
and the Masons have both used the Merovingian symbol of the bee." (77:80) This would
explain why Utah is called 'the Beehive State.' J. R. Church confirms the Mormon-Merovingian
connection in Guardians of the Grail:

"The symbol of the bee is also used in Mormon temples today. The bee is the state
symbol for Utah. Furthermore, Mormon doctrine teaches that Mary Magdalene was
the wife of Jesus Christ. The religion of the Mormon Church of the Latter Day
Saints is replete with Merovingian ideology..." - 127:82

In Bloodline of the Holy Grail, Laurence Gardner explains the importance of the bee to
Merovingian royalty -- bees make honey, a symbol of insight and wisdom. Although Gardiner
appeals to Scripture which likens honey with the knowledge of wisdom, the secret doctrine of
the occultist redefines these terms as gnôsis (the Greek word for 'knowledge' or 'insight') and the
ancient wisdom of the Hermetic tradition, i.e. sorcery. The emperor Napoleon is included
among the Merovingian worthies because, in 1810, he married Marie-Louise, the daughter of
Francis II, the last Habsburg to sit upon the throne of the Holy Roman Empire.

"The Merovingian kings were noted sorcerers in the manner of the Samaritan
Magi, and they firmly believed in the hidden power of the honeycomb. Because a
honeycomb is naturally made up of hexagonal prisms, it was considered by
philosophers to be the manifestation of divine harmony in nature. Its construction
was associated with insight and wisdom — as detailed in Proverbs 24:13-14...
"To the Merovingians the bee was a most hallowed creature. A sacred emblem
of Egyptian royalty, it became a symbol of Wisdom. Some 300 golden bees were
found stitched to the cloak of Childeric I (the son of Meroveus) when his grave was
unearthed in 1653. Napoleon had these attached to his own coronation robe in
1804. He claimed this right by virtue of his descent from James de Rohan-Stuardo,
the natural son (legitimated 1667) of Charles II Stuart of Britain by Marguerite,
Duchesse de Rohan. The Stuarts were in turn entitled to this distinction because
 Duchesse de Rohan. The Stuarts were in turn entitled to this distinction because
they, and their related Counts of Brittany, were descended from Clodion's brother
Fredemundus--thus (akin to the Merovingians) they were equally in descent from
the Fisher Kings through Faramund. The Merovingian bees are still to be seen on
some Jacobite glassware." - 29:171-2

Recall that the predecessor of the Prieuré de Sion was the Society of Ormus, to which the
Therapeutae of Alexandria and the Essenes of Qumran attached themselves. The word Essene
means king bee. The Qumran desert, where the Essene community was established, is located
on the ancient site of Gomorrah, the city which God judged with for its homosexual perversion.
(Gen. 19; Jer. 17:5,6) The Essenes were also priests of the Greek goddess Diana, a lesbian,
whose symbol was the bee. The Mother Goddess, under her various names, was known as the
Queen Bee while the priests who ministered in her temples were called Essenes or King Bees.

"...the Great Mother was known as the Queen Bee and her priestesses were
Melissae, the Bees. Pindar says that the Pythian priestess at Delphi was known as
the Delphic Bee, and her emblematic bee appeared on Delphic coins. The officiates
at Eleusis were Bees.
"The name Melissa is an ancient title referring to a priestess of the Great Mother
or to a nymph (the full-grown larva of bees are called nymphs)...
"The Cretan Zeus was born in a cave of bees and was fed by them, and Zeus
also had the title of Melissaios, Bee-man; he fathered a son, the hero Meliteus, by a
nymph who hid the child from Hera in a wood, where Zeus had him fed by bees.
Dionyous was fed on honey as a babe by the nymph Makris, daughter of Aristaeus,
protector of flocks and bees.
"As emblems of the goddesses Demeter, Cybele, Diana, Rhea and the Ephesian
Artemis, bees are lunar and virgin. The bee appears on statues of Artemis and some
of her priests were called Essenes - King Bees - Pausanias says that the word
'Essene' means King Bee. With the Essenes, 'King Bees' were priestly officials.
Christ was called the 'aetherial bee'." - 973

In The Two Babylons, Alexander Hislop associated the bee with the Essenes, Diana and also
with Mithraism. It seems that this insect typified the 'Word' and the 'Seed of the Woman' in the
various pagan religions:

“...to identify the Sun-god with the Great Revealer of the Godhead, while under
the name of Mithra, he was exhibited in sculpture as a Lion; that Lion had a Bee
represented between his lips... The bee between the lips of the Sun-god was
intended to point him out as 'the Word'; for Dabar, the expression which signifies
in Chaldee a 'Bee,' signifies also a 'Word'; and the position of that bee in the mouth
leaves no doubt as to the idea intended to be conveyed...
“...the 'Bee' was set up as the substitute of the light of Dabar, 'the Word'. Thus
the apostates turned away from the 'True Light,' and set up a shadow in His stead…
In Asiatic Greece, the Babylonian g-d was evidently recognized as the Light-giving
'Word,' for there we find the Bee occupying such a position as makes it very clear
that it was a symbol of the great Revealer. Thus we find Muller referring to the
symbols connected with the worship of the Ephesian Diana: 'Her constant symbol is
the bee…the chief priest himself was called Essēn, or the king-bee.' The character
of the chief priest shows the character of the g-d he represented. The contemplar
divinity of Diana, the tower-bearing goddess, was of course the same divinity as
invariably accompanied the Babylonian goddess: and this title of the priest shows
that the Bee which appeared on her medals was just another symbol for her child,
 that the Bee which appeared on her medals was just another symbol for her child,
as the 'Seed of the Woman,' in his assumed character as Dabar, 'The Word' that
enlightened the souls of men.” - 156:194-5

In his book, J. R. Church makes a compelling case that the Merovingians are descendants of the
Tribe of Dan. In the book of Judges, Dan's most famous judge, Samson, proposed a strange
riddle about bees who made honey: "Out of the eater came forth meat, and out of the strong
came forth sweetness." (Judges 14:14)

"Four symbols are used in the Bible concerning the Danites — a serpent, an eagle,
a lion, and the bees. In the story of Samson, we find the famous riddle of the bees
who made honey in the carcass of a lion which had been killed by Samson. The
symbolic nature of the bees could represent the concept that the descendants of the
tribe of Dan would one day try to bring about the destruction of the tribe of Judah,
whose symbol was the lion, and from the carcass of the lion the tribe of Dan would
attempt to produce the golden age of a world empire, symbolized by the honey.
The Merovingians claim of coming from the tribe of Judah (through Mary
Magdalene and Jesus Christ) is not true. The lie may have been advanced because
the symbol of Judah was the lion. However, I believe the Merovingians were from
the tribe of Dan." - 127:82,103,109

Was Samson trying to communicate a cryptic message to the Philistines, with whom he was
allied through marriage? The tribe of Dan later became involved in the worship of false gods
when they relocated from their inheritance by the seacoast of Israel to the northern area of
Palestine at Mount Hermon. Considering Samson's apostasy and the idolatrous history of the
tribe of Dan, it may be that Samson's riddle was an end-time prophecy revealing Dan's alliance
with pagan cultures whose agenda was to reestablish a future Golden Age. A restoration of the
Golden Age of Saturn, the pre-flood civilization which God judged, would be accomplished on
the ruins of the tribe of Judah, the bloodline of Jesus Christ, or more likely, the overthrow of
Jesus Christ by Satan's demonic bloodline. This future coup may have been typified by Samson
as honey (gnosis/ancient wisdom) in the carcass (dead body) of the Lion of Judah (Jesus
Christ). J. R. Church states that the apostate tribe of Dan specifically engaged in the worship of
the Mother Goddess, Diana, which they adopted from the indigenous Canaanites who had
occupied the northern area of Palestine at Mt. Hermon. Church also posits that the Danites
exported this goddess worship to Greece after the Assyrian invasion in 722 B.C.

"Now, the question remains, how do we know the Spartans were the offspring of
the tribe of Dan?... Aside from the fact that the Spartans wore long hair as a
symbol of their power (like Samson) there is a legend written about the son of
Belus, king of the Spartans — in which is given the story of one named 'Danaus,'
who arrived in Greece with his daughters by ship. According to the legend, his
daughters called themselves Danades. They introduced the cult of the mother
goddess, which became the established religion of the Arcadians and developed
over the years into the worship of Diana... The Spartans so loved their king that
they called themselves Danaans — long before they adopted the name of Spartans.
Also in the legend is a record of the arrival of 'colonists from Palestine.' Please
note, the man who headed the expedition was named Danaus. He may well have
been of the tribe of Dan, and thus would have been the progenitor of the ancient
Spartans." - 127:120-121

The following is rather astonishing excerpt from an entry to the International Standard Bible
Encyclopedia. According to this resource which cites Josephus, the Essenes were originally one
Encyclopedia. According to this resource which cites Josephus, the Essenes were originally one
with the Pharisees, the principal adversaries and executioners of Jesus Christ.

"The earliest note of the existence of the Essenes, as of the Pharisees and
Sadducees, is under the pontificate of Jonathan, the successor of Judas Maccabeus
(Ant., XIII, v, 9). Josephus says 'at this time there were three sects of the Jews,' and
proceeds to name them. If this, however, were precisely true, it is singular that there
is no mention of any of these sects in either of the books of the Maccabees. The
only sect named is the Hasideans (chacidhim) who are called (1 Macc 2:42) 'mighty
men of Israel, every one that offered himself willingly for the law' (the King James
Version 'voluntarily devoted himself to the law'; Greek hekousiazomenos). These
again are not mentioned by Josephus. The meaning of the word is 'saints,' and in
this sense it appears frequently in the Psalms. A parallel in modern history to their
warlike activity and their claim to saintliness may be found in the Cameronians of
'society folk' in Scotland toward the end of the 17th century. They were Peden's
'praying folk,' yet they fought and won battles. When William of Orange came
they formed the Cameronian regiment which helped to quell the clans and checked
their advance after Killiecrankie. Some have identified these Hasideans with the
Pharisees (as W. Robertson Smith, article 'Assidaeans,' Encyclopedia Biblica, and
others). Hitzig would regard their successors as the Essenes. The great
resemblance there was between the Pharisees and the Essenes renders it not
improbable that originally they were really one sect and split off. If Josephus is
to be trusted this division must have occurred, if not before the Maccabean
struggle, at least early during its continuance. The Sadducean authors of 1
Maccabees may have grouped them together. According to Josephus, John
Hyrcanus was a Pharisee, from which it may be presumed that Judas
Maccabeus and his brethren belonged to the same sect of the Jews. The
Assideans deserted Maccabeus, so that it would seem at least possible that by that
time the separation had become complete, so that the Hasideans are now to be
regarded as Essenes. It would seem as if they deserted the Maccabeans when they--
the Maccabeans--made alliances with heathen powers like Rome."

It should be noted here that Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair was elected Grand Master of the
Prieuré de Sion on August 6, the feast of Diana; of this association more will be said in the next
section.

THE SHEEPFOLD

Returning to E. W. Bullinger's Witness of the Stars, north and south of the bright cluster of stars
in Cancer called the Beehive are two stars called the northern Ass and southern Ass:

The brightest star, z (in the tail), is called Tegmine, holding. The star a (or a1
and a2 ), in the lower large claw, is called Acubene, which, in Hebrew and Arabic,
means the sheltering or hiding-place. Another is named Ma'alaph (Arabic),
assembled thousands; Al Himarein (Arabic), the kids or lambs.
North and south of the nebula Praesepe are two stars, which Orientalists speak
of by a name evidently of some antiquity. Asellus means an Ass, and one was
called Asellus Boreas, the northern Ass; while the other, Asellus Australis, is the
southern Ass.*
* The Ass was the emblem of Typhon, the king who smites or is smitten. - 939
(Cancer)
Now, in ancient Greek mythology, Typhon, whose emblem was the Ass, was the ruler of the
underworld and corresponds to Set or Satan. According to a Guide to the Ancient Greek
Pantheon of Gods (Theoi), Spirits (Daimones) and Monsters, "...the daimon Typhon...was
equated with the Egyptian god Set." (867) And in her Theosophical Glossary, Blavatsky
identifies Typhon as Satan: "Typhon is...Plutarch asserts, the distinct 'Evil Principle' or the
Satan of the Jews." (316)

The Ass being the symbol of Typhon, this cannot possibly be the meaning of Cancer, protests
Bullinger, who must associate it with something more Biblical if he is going to sell astrology to
Christians. Well, two asses were believed to be the tribal sign of Jacob's son, Issachar. Although
this is nowhere stated in Scripture, Jacob did call Issachar a 'strong ass' in his prophecy
concerning his twelve sons. And in Bullinger's Revised Version, Issachar "couched down
between sheepfolds like a strong ass". Therefore, the sign of Cancer in the heavens must mean
the sheepfold of Christ.

"This connects it with the Tribe of Issachar, who is said to have borne upon the
Tribal standard the sign of two asses.
"This is doubtless the reference in Jacob's blessing (Gen 49:11, RV):
"Issachar is a strong ass,
Couching down between the sheepfolds;
And he saw a resting-place that it was good;
And the land that it was pleasant;
And he bowed his shoulder to bear,
And became a servant under task work." - 939 (Cancer)

There you have it. The sign of Cancer, which in the ancient zodiacs connected mankind with
Satan and the Underworld, really signified the sheepfolds of Christ. One problem, however, is
that, in the King James Bible, Genesis 49:14 is translated: "Issachar is a strong ass couching
down between two burdens..." There is no mention of a sheepfold at all in the King James.
(We note that Bullinger not only used the corrupt Revised Version, he even has the wrong verse
notation!)

E. W. Bullinger's Witness of the Stars was published in London in 1883, just two years
following publication of the English Revised Version. Sitting on the Revision Committee that
produced the ERV, which was used by Bullinger to support his astrological false doctrine, were
B.F. Westcott, F.J.A. Hort and other Anglican clergymen with affiliations to several occult
societies. The timing of Bullinger's publication was auspicious. Bullinger could never have
misinterpreted so many Scriptures using the King James Bible for theological support!

HEAVEN'S GATE

New Age sources identify Cancer as the "Gate of Men" or the gateway in the heavens through
which souls descend into matter, i.e. human bodies. This is the Gnostic doctrine of the pre-
existence of souls, i.e. that all humans were once part of a Universal Soul from which certain
souls, whether on a mission for the gods or enticed by materialism, descended from their
ethereal state into bodies. Albert Pike expounded at length on the pre-existence of souls in
Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Rite of Scottish Freemasonry. This false
doctrine, which was believed by the Kabbalists, Platonists, Essenes, and Neo-Platonists such as
Origen of the Alexandrian School, originated in the Babylonian (Chaldean) Mysteries.
 "The Kabbalists...held that...those who descend from [the Supreme Heaven] without
fault of their own, by God's order, are gifted with a divine fire, which preserves
them from the contagion of matter, and restores them to Heaven so soon as their
mission is ended. Those who descend through their own fault, go from world to
world, insensibly loosing their love of Divine things, and their self-contemplation;
until they reach the [material world], falling by their own weight. This is a pure
Platonism, clothed with the images and words peculiar to the Kabalists. It was the
doctrine of the Essenes, who, says Porphyry, 'believe that souls descended from the
most subtile ether, attracted to bodies by the seductions of matter.' It was in
substance the doctrine of Origen; and it came from the Chaldaeans, who largely
studied the theory of the Heavens, the spheres, and the influences of the signs and
constellations." - 155:440-441

Having been imprisoned in matter, says Pike, the wandering soul longs to return to its former
condition of divinity and incorporeity. In his instructions to Masonic initiates on the migration
of souls, Pike appealed to 5th century Roman philosopher and writer, Ambrosius Macrobius,
who was among the first to hold the idea of a spherical earth with northern and southern
hemispheres divided by an equatorial ocean. Macrobius was a Neo-Platonist who blended
Plato’s ideas with theosophy.

"As you learned in the 24th Degree, my Brother, the ancient Philosophers
regarded the soul of man as having had its origin in Heaven. That was, Macrobius
says, a settled opinion among them all; and they held it to be the only true wisdom,
for the soul, while united with the body, to look ever toward its source, and strive
to return to the place whence it came. Among the fixed stars it dwelt, until, seduced
by the desire of animating a body, it descended to be imprisoned in matter.
Thenceforward it has no other resource than recollection, and is ever attracted
toward its birth-place and home. The means of return are to be sought for in itself.
To re-ascend to its source, it must do and suffer in the body.
"Thus the Mysteries taught the great doctrine of the divine nature and longings
after immortality of the soul, of the nobility of its origin, the grandeur of its
destiny..." - 155:436

Yea, saith Albert Pike, the eternal abode of these incarnated souls is the Elysian Fields, located
in the region of the fixed stars.

"Let us, in order to understand this old Thought, first follow the soul in its descent.
The sphere or Heaven of the fixed stars was that Holy Region, and those Elysian
Fields, that were the native domicile of souls, and the place to which they re-
ascended, when they had recovered their primitive purity and simplicity." - 155:437

In Greek mythology, contrary to Pike, the Elysian Fields are the underworld - Hades - rather
than Heaven. Andrew Collins writes in Gateway to Atlantis: The Search for the Lost
Civilization that the Elysian Fields are down rather than up:

"...Proserpine, or Persephone...was the daughter of Jupiter (or Zeus) and Ceres, who
was abducted into the underworld by the god Pluto (or Hades)... The importance of
this familiar legend is that the underworld over which she ruled as queen was
synonymous with the otherworldly realm known as Elysium or the Elysian Fields."
- 637:102
Professor Henrique J. de Souza, President of the Brazilian Theosophical Society wrote in his
article, 'Does Shangri-la Exist?,' that the hollow earth is the location of the paradise of pagan
religions:

"Among all races of mankind, back to the dawn of time, there existed a tradition
concerning the existence of a Sacred Land or Terrestrial Paradise, where the
highest ideals of humanity were living realities. This concept is found in the most
ancient writings and traditions of the peoples of Europe, Asia Minor, China, India,
Egypt and the Americas. This Sacred Land, it is said, can be known only to persons
who are worthy, pure and innocent, for which reason it constitutes the central
theme of the dreams of childhood.
"The road that leads to this Blessed Land, this Invisible World, this Esoteric and
Occult Domain, constitutes the central quest and master key of all mystery
teachings and systems of initiation in the past, present and future. This magic key
is the 'Open Sesame' that unlocks the door to a new and marvelous world. The old
Rosicrucians designated it by the French word VITRIOL, which is a combination of
the first letters of the sentence: `VISTA INTERIORA TERRAE RECTIFICANDO
INYENES OMNIA LAPIDEM,' to indicate that 'in the interior of the earth is
hidden the true MYSTERY 'The path that leads to this Hidden World is the Way of
Initiation.
"In ancient Greece, in the Mysteries of Delphos and Eleusis, this Heavenly Land
was referred to as Mount Olympus and the Elysian Fields. Also in the earliest
Vedic times, it was called by various names, such as Ratnasanu (peak of the
precious stone), Hermadri (mountain of gold) and Mount Meru (home of the gods
and Olympus of the Hindus). Symbolically, the peak of this sacred mountain is in
the sky, its middle portion on the earth and its base in the Subterranean World." -
325

To the Gnostic, death is not the permanent cessation of physical existence, but rather the
descent of the pure divine spirit through progressive stages, called deaths, into the material
realm, considered to be inherently evil. Prince of Freemasonry, Albert Pike continues:

From that luminous region the soul set forth, when it journeyed toward the body; a
destination which it did not reach until it had undergone three degradations,
designated by the name of Deaths; and until it had passed through the several
spheres and elements. All souls remained in possession of Heaven and of
happiness, so long as they were wise enough to avoid the contagion of the body,
and to keep themselves from any contact with matter. But those who, from that
lofty abode, where they were lapped in eternal light, have looked longingly toward
the body, and toward that which we here below call life, but which is to the soul a
real death; and who have conceived for it a secret desire,--those souls, victims of
their concupiscence, are attracted by degrees toward the inferior regions of the
world, by the mere weight of thought and of that terrestrial desire. The soul,
perfectly incorporeal, does not at once invest itself with the gross envelope of the
body, but little by little, by successive and insensible alterations, and in proportion
as it removes further and further from the simple and perfect substance in which it
dwelt at first. It first surrounds itself with a body composed of the substance of the
stars; and afterward, as it descends through the several spheres, with ethereal matter
more and more gross, thus by degrees descending to an earthly body; and its
number of degradations or deaths being the same as that of the spheres which it
traverses." - 155:437
In classical antiquity, the constellation Cancer and its counterpart Capricornus held the positions
of the Sun at the solstices. When the fixed stars of Cancer marked the position of the Sun at the
June solstice, this key station marked the gateway for the descent of souls into incarnation.
Cancer was known as the 'Gate of Men' through which souls descended from heaven into
human bodies. During the migration of souls, men’s spirits dwelt in the Milky Way, the seed-
ground of the soul, between incarnations. It was also believed by the ancients that the souls of
men, when released from corporeity, ascended back to heaven through the stars of Capricorn,
known as the 'Gate of the Gods'. These two 'Gates' are located where the Zodiac and the Milky
Way intersect. Because of the precession of the equinoxes—i.e., by reason of the earth’s
wobble the North Pole moves backward one zodiacal sign every 2,000 years—the Gate of
Cancer is now in Gemini and the Gate of Capricorn is now in Sagittarius; for the constellations
that serve as 'Gates' must 'stand' upon the earth, meaning that they must rise heliacally at the
solstices.

"The Galaxy, Macrobius says, crosses the Zodiac in two opposite points, Cancer
and Capricorn, the tropical points in the sun's course, ordinarily called the Gates of
the Sun. These two tropics, before his time [Aries], corresponded with those
constellations, but in his day [Pisces] with Gemini and Sagittarius, in consequence
of the precession of the equinoxes; but the signs of the Zodiac remained
unchanged; and the Milky Way crossed at the signs Cancer and Capricorn, though
not at those constellations.
"Through these gates souls were supposed to descend to earth and re-
ascend to Heaven. One, Macrobius says, in his dream of Scipio, was styled the
Gate of Men; and the other, the Gate of the Gods. Cancer was the former, because
souls descended by it to the earth; and Capricorn the latter, because by it they re-
ascended to their seats of immortality, and became Gods. From the Milky Way,
according to Pythagoras, diverged the route to the dominions of Pluto. Until they
left the Galaxy, they were not deemed to have commenced to descend toward the
terrestrial bodies. From that they departed, and to that they returned. Until they
reached the sign Cancer, they had not left it, and were still Gods. When they
reached Leo, they commenced their apprenticeship for their future condition; and
whey they were at Aquarius, the sign opposite Leo, they were furthest removed
from human life...
"...the soul falls along the zodiac and the milky way to the lower spheres, and in
its descent not only takes, in each sphere, a new envelope of the material
composing the luminous bodies of the planets, but receives there the different
faculties which it is to exercise while it inhabits the body..." - 155:437-8

According to Morals & Dogma, souls may only re-ascend with the aid of certain spirits called
planetary genii or intelligences.

"In the ancient doctrine, certain Genii were charged with the duty of conducting
souls to the bodies destined to receive them, and of withdrawing them from those
bodies. According to Plutarch, these were the functions of Proserpine and Mercury.
In Plato, a familiar Genius accompanies man at his birth, follows and watches him
all his life, and at death conducts him to the tribunal of the Great Judge. These
Genii are the media of communication between man and the Gods; and the soul is
ever in their presence. This doctrine is taught in the oracles of Zoroaster: and these
Genii were the Intelligences that resided in the planets.
"Thus the secret science and mysterious emblems of initiation were connected
with the Heavens, the Spheres, and the Constellations: and this connection must be
 with the Heavens, the Spheres, and the Constellations: and this connection must be
studied by whomsoever would understand the ancient mind..." - 155:441

Belief in the migration of souls was the motivation behind the mass suicide of 39 members of
the Heaven's Gate cult in March of 1997. The occasion of this tragedy was the arrival of the
Hale-Bopp Comet. The cult members were promised that a UFO would accompany the comet
in order to deliver their departed spirits to Heaven:

"The UFO would bring them, just before the festival of Easter, Jesus' resurrection
from death according to Christianity, to reincarnation on another planet. There, they
would see Bonnie Nettles again, the movement's co-founder, who really had died
of cancer. Those who doubted were referred to the Christian Bible, book
Revelation, chapter 11. In his farewell message on video, Applewhite expressed his
solidarity with the cults of David Koresh and the Order of the Solar Temple. They
also had been willing to follow their ‘Shepherds', their leaders, into the hereafter." -
959

According to the Heaven's Gate website, the cult members were led to their deaths after 22
years of classroom conditioning by extraterrestrials posing as reincarnations of Jesus and His
Father. The following excerpt from a "Statement by an E.T. Presently Incarnate" explains the
descent and mission of extraterrestrials from the 'Kingdom of Heaven' to Earth in order to assist
the cult members to re-ascend. First, the difficulties of incarnation were emphasized to glorify
the task of the selfless extraterrestrials who left the kingdom of heaven to save the struggling
earth creatures:

"In the early 1970's, two individuals (my task partner and myself) from the
Evolutionary Level Above Human (the Kingdom of Heaven) incarnated into
(moved into and took over) two human bodies that were in their forties. I moved
into a male body, and my partner, who is an Older Member in the Level Above
Human, took a female body. (We called these bodies 'vehicles,' for they simply
served as physical vehicular tools for us to wear while on a task among humans.
They had been tagged and set aside for our use since their birth.)
"We brought to Earth with us a crew of students whom we had worked with
(nurtured) on Earth in previous missions. They were in varying stages of
metamorphic transition from membership in the human kingdom to membership in
the physical Evolutionary Level Above Human (what your history refers to as the
Kingdom of God or Kingdom of Heaven)...
"We feel that while we were 'out of body' between arrival and incarnation, we
were thoroughly briefed and were taken through an extensive preview of places
and events that would assist our individual incarnation process of bringing our mind
- our consciousness - into the vehicle (body) and overriding the mind of the human
'plant' (or container) that each of us was to use. This incarnation process is very
difficult and cannot be done without the help of Older Members of the
Evolutionary Level Above Human who have not only gone through the
metamorphic transition to completion themselves, but who have also assisted others
through this transition before (acting as 'midwives' for some in the shedding of their
human-creature characteristics while preparing to be born as new creatures into the
Next Evolutionary Kingdom)..." - 943

Having fallen for this monstrous fabrication, the hapless cult members were lured with the
promise of a false rapture in the clouds, which were the mothership! However, certain perils
would attend the 'disconnect' process, which could only be accomplished with E.T. assistance in
would attend the 'disconnect' process, which could only be accomplished with E.T. assistance in
a 'clinical procedure'. Hmmm....

"The final act of metamorphosis or separation from the human kingdom is the
'disconnect' or separation from the human physical container or body in order to be
released from the human environment and enter the 'next' world or physical
environment of the Next Level. This will be done under the supervision of
Members of the Next Level in a clinical procedure. We will rendezvous in the
'clouds' (a giant mothership) for our briefing and journey to the Kingdom of the
Literal Heavens...
"Where one can fall from progressing in the Next Level is to slip into believing
that he can grow on his own. The only way an individual can grow in the Next
Level is to learn to be dependent on his Older Member as that source of unlimited
growth and knowledge. So, any younger member in good standing, forever remains
totally dependent upon (and looks to) his Older Member for all things." - 943

Members of the Heaven's Gate cult were led to believe that a literal UFO would transport their
individual souls to the clouds, which were a giant mothership that would convey them to a
literal Kingdom of Heaven. Reports on the Heaven's Gate deaths portrayed the cult as a group
of suicidal religious fanatics, whose aberrant beliefs were abnormal rather than mainstream
occultism. The reader may be surprised to learn that the dualistic doctrine of Heaven's Gate
cult — that matter is evil and to be escaped — is the secret doctrine of all pagan religions and
occult societies. This false doctrine was behind the mass suicides of the Order of the Solar
Temple — in Quebec on Dec. 23, 1995 and France on March 22, 1997, just days before the
Heaven's Gate episode in California. Before that was Jonestown, Guyana in 1978.

Cult-sponsored suicide is no modern fad, however. In the Middle Ages, heretical movements
such as the Cathars, of which the Albigenses were a sect, practiced suicide under the delusion
that they would be reincarnated on other planets. In the occult, the extinction of the whole
human race is desirable so that all souls may re-ascend to their former habitation in the heavens:

"The dualism of the Albigenses was also the basis of their moral teaching. Man,
they taught, is a living contradiction. Hence, the liberation of the soul from its
captivity in the body is the true end of our being. To attain this, suicide is
commendable; it was customary among them in the form of endura (starvation).
The extinction of bodily life on the largest scale consistent with human existence is
also a perfect aim...
"...But the worst danger was that the triumph of the heretical principles meant the
extinction of the human race. This annihilation was the direct consequence of the
Catharist doctrine, that all intercourse between the sexes ought to be avoided and
that suicide or the Endura, under certain circumstances, is not only lawful but
commendable..." - 441:7

The Albigenses and Cathars are generally portrayed by Fundamental Baptists as Christian sects
of the Middle Ages who were persecuted by the Roman Catholic Church for their faithfulness
to the Word of God. However, it is well-documented in sources outside of Fundamentalism that
the Cathari, Albigenses, Bogomils and other medieval religious sects were Manichean dualists
and zealously promulgated this ancient heresy throughout Europe. Any objective history or
standard encyclopedia will testify of the Gnostic doctrines and practices of the Albigenses and
Cathari. The Columbia Encyclopedia states:
 "Officially known as heretics, they were actually Cathari, Provencal adherents of a
doctrine similar to the Manichean dualistic system of material evil and spiritual
good... They believed that Jesus only seemed to have a human body... The
Albigenses were extremely ascetic, abstaining from the flesh in all forms, including
milk and cheese. They comprised two classes, believers and the Perfect, the former
much more numerous... The Perfect were those who had received the sacrament of
consolamentum, a kind of laying on of hands. The Albigenses held their clergy in
high regard. An occasional practice was suicide, preferably by starvation, for if this
life is essentially evil, its end is to be hastened." - 124 ("Albigenses")

The etymology of the term Albigenses associates this cult with the Merovingian bloodline. In
Realm of the Ring Lords, Laurence Gardner traces their genealogy to the subterranean, demonic
origins of the Merovingian race:

"Traditionally, the Albi-gens (Elven bloodline) has been identified with water – a
concept that can be traced back some five millennia to Tiâmat the Dragon Queen.
Her Akkadian name actually means 'salt waters' and had its equivalent in the
Hebrew 'tehôm' (or 'tehômot' in the plural), as used in Old Testament references to
'the deep'." - 964

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. - Rev. 13:1

The Nation of Islam also held to the Manichean doctrine of dualism under Under Elijah
Muhammad (1897-1975), who taught that the white race was the personification of evil and an
aberration, the human race having originally been black. Although the Heaven's Gate cult was
not racist, other similarities to the Heaven's Gate cult are evident in the excerpt below, which
reveals the esoteric meaning of the Mothership.

Mothership Connection
"The Honorable Elijah Muhammad inherited the leadership from Master Fard
Muhammad who was, himself, believed to have succeeded Noble Drew Ali. All of
these men held Masonic titles, i.e., noble, honorable and master. As masons, they'd
taken vows of secrecy and could not reveal the deeper wisdom to the uninitiated.
So they spoke in codes. So deep and multilayered were those codes that few, to this
day, have a notion of what they were really teaching...
"Before UFOlogy became popular, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad taught that
a large spaceship had been built 'to destroy the white man's world.' He called this
spaceship 'the Mother Plane.' He also referred to it as 'the Mother of Planes.'
"Often, when Mr. Muhammad was dropping a part of the secret wisdom, he'd let
out a little chuckle before finishing a sentence. The Mother plane, he taught, was
one-half mile by one-half mile in size. It stayed primarily in outer space but entered
the Earth's atmosphere every six months 'to take on air.' The purpose of this Mother
Plane was to 'destroy the white man's world.'
"In Nation of Islam esoteric symbolism, white, black, red and yellow 'people'
were symbols of states of mind. Very few people in the Nation, however, knew that
most of the doctrine was given metaphorically and symbolically. The rank-and -file
membership considers the teachings to be 'actual facts.'...
Mother of Planes
"In speaking of the 'Mother of Planes,' Mr. Muhammad provided a clue that he
was really speaking of planes of consciousness, not physical spacecrafts. In
 was really speaking of planes of consciousness, not physical spacecrafts. In
Qaballah wisdom the planes of consciousness were named Assiah, Yetzirah, Briyah
and Atziluth. Assiah incorporated the physical plane and the lower part of the astral
plane. The mentality focused upon that plane was called 'the Asiatic Black man.
"The astral plane is the 'mother of planes' because the astral plane becomes
impregnated by all the consciousness seeds and eventually 'gives birth' to a physical
event or object. In addition, spiritual development has to commence from the level
of the astral or mother plane.
The astral plane was identified with the Virgin Isis, the Virgin Mary and other
'mother goddesses.'
"It is the consciousness plane that includes alpha states, trance states, dreaming
states, daydreaming states, and emotionally charged states. The Mother Plane,
then, represents the trance state of consciousness. By cultivating such altered
states, all the peoples in the world participated in producing elements of the
universal spiritual wisdom." (970)

In her book, The Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow, Constance Cumbey wrote of the coded
language used by leaders of the New Age Movement: "...in The Aquarian Conspiracy...Marilyn
Ferguson had said that the 'conspirators' communicated by code words and signals..." (79:32)
Albert Pike disclosed in Morals and Dogma that the Masonic initiate 'was taught the symbols of
Freemasonry but was "intentionally misled by false interpretations. It is not intended that he
shall understand them, but it is intended that he shall imagine that he shall understand them.
Their true explication is reserved for the Adepts, the princes of Masonry." (155:819)

The Order of the Solar Temple cultists fervently believed the UFO fiction. The Heaven's Gate
website indicated that, although members of the cult were never informed that the Mothership
was not a real UFO, they were at least prepared for that possibility. However, paranormal
investigator, Richard Hosking stated: "The Heaven's Gate cult seized on a typical Internet story,
this one about a 'mothership' companion to the Hale-Bopp comet and believed it, even after
telescopes the group bought refused to reveal the mothership." - (971)

On the heels of the Heaven's Gate tragedy, 'Biblical astronomer' Robert Scott Wadsworth was
promoting the Hale-Bopp Comet in the constellation of Argo as an astronomical event which
last occurred during the Great Flood. Wadsworth was in fact promoting astrology, masked as
astronomy, to predict future events relating to the Tribulation period.

"The Comet Hale-Bopp will again be visible in the northern hemisphere from
late August through late October in the early morning hours before sunrise. It will
be difficult at best to see the comet with the naked eye, but it will be visible
through binoculars and telescopes. Though the comet will not be very bright at that
time, it will be in an interesting position in the heavens. Hale-Bopp will be in the
constellation Argo (Noah's Ark) from mid August to late December. Argo
represents a place of refuge for God's people in a time of great trouble on Earth.
Such was the case during the Great Flood (see the article 'The Great Flood' in the
August, 1996 issue of Biblical Astronomy). This is particularly interesting since
Hale-Bopp, as seen from Earth, comes from the constellation Pavo which
represents Argos (Noah) the shipbuilder of Argo (see 'A Voice Crying in the
Heavens', page 61), and was last seen in this part of the solar system ín the days of
Noah'!
"...This upcoming Jewish year 5758 is spelled tav, shin, nun, chet. Nun, chet
spells the name 'noah'. The year forms an acrostic for the 'season of Noah.' The year
5758 will begin this September according to the Hebrew Calendar (October
 5758 will begin this September according to the Hebrew Calendar (October
according to the Jewish Talmudic Calendar). At either reckoning, Hale-Bopp will
be in Noah's Ark at this time." (Robert Scott Wadsworth/July 1997) - 952

In these last days before Jesus Christ returns, many forms of divination such as astrology and
occult numerology will be used to promote misleading interpretations of the Tribulation events
and thereby facilitate wider acceptance of the false Christ. Cloaked with the Bible, these occult
traditions are already being promoted to Christian audiences as 'Biblical astrology', 'Biblical
astronomy', and 'Bible codes'. Labeling an occult practice as 'Biblical' does not change its
nature or origin, which is pagan. Whatever the term used to promote divination, the Christian
must look beyond the window dressing and examine the practice objectively. Scripture is very
clear that the only safe ground for the Christian is strict adherence to that which God has plainly
revealed in Scripture. To look for hidden codes, secret doctrines and esoteric interpretations is
to open the door to Satanic influences:

There shall not be found among you any one that...useth divination, or an observer
of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar
spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. - Deut. 18:10,11

The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are
revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words
of this law. - Deut. 29:29

Sci-Fi video and board games are generating interest in astrology as a respectable science, and
occultism as a trendy form of entertainment.. One board game called Gateway to the Stars
promotes ascension to the Sirian Mothership Argo where the council that rules our galaxy
resides : "Dramatically transforms all activities into the highest possible acceleration toward
ascension…intergalactic portal in Auburn, CA… Connected to Shamballa…the Sirian
Mothership Argo & the galactic council."

Question: Might this 'galactic council' be the august body in the heavens of which the Council
of Nine in France is the earthly replica, i.e., the Antichrist, False Prophet, counterfeit Archangel
Michael and 7 planetary angels?'

CANCER'S DECANS: MINOR CONSTELLATIONS

ARGO, URSA MAJOR & URSA MINOR

Also important in the Zodiac, besides the 12 major constellations, there are three minor
constellations within each sign called 'decans'. The decans in Cancer—Ursa Minor, Ursa Major
and Argo—will be crucial to our study of the astrological signs preparing the way of the
Antichrist and False Prophet. Because of its thematic relevance to the mothership, we shall
begin with the last decan in Cancer, the constellation of Argo, the Ship.

ARGO, THE SHIP

"The third and final decan of Cancer is Argo... Argo means 'The Ship'... Here, of
course, is a picture of the famous and celebrated ship of the Argonauts of Greek
mythology...which apparently has some sort of historical basis... Jason and a great
band of heroes went out on a journey in the ship Argo in search of the Golden
Fleece. It is a picture of Christ Jesus, the Captain of the well-fought fight, the
Captain of the Argonauts' ship... To provide that lost innocence and righteousness,
Christ has to go to the city of Colchis, and there in a garden He was hung upon a
 Christ has to go to the city of Colchis, and there in a garden He was hung upon a
tree guarded by a serpent. Jason (Christ) alone was able to destroy the serpent and
recover that righteousness, this Golden Fleece, which now had been transformed as
having come from the sheep that was killed. It is a picture of Christ, the Lamb of
God, who gave His life to provide a covering for man's lost righteousness."
(Kennedy) - 872:114-115

"...Argo, The Ship, shows the travellers and the pilgrims brought safely home--all
conflict over." (Bullinger) - 939 (Cancer)

Jason and the Argonauts was a Greek epic in which the Captain, Jason, and his fifty Argonauts
sailed the good ship, Argo, in search of a Golden Fleece which was guarded by a fierce
dragon. The Golden Fleece typifies the anticipated return of the Golden Age. The ship is a
common motif in ancient and classical mythology. Fabricated versions of the Great Flood
abound in pagan cultures which present alternative accounts of the pre-flood 'Atlanteans' who
managed to escape God's judgment on mankind on a celestial boat. Isis is sometimes
represented with a boat, known as the 'Ship of Isis'—a great celestial barque which she and
Osiris sailed over the great flood. From the The Fixed Stars of the Zodiac we learned that "...an
inscription VIRGINI PARITURÆ...was found at Chartres upon a black image of Isis... Along
with the statue of Isis was a boat, which...was the symbol under which this Goddess was
adored..." The 'ship of Isis' corresponds to the constellation Argo Navis in the southern
hemisphere, which also was revered by the Hindus as Argha, for it preserved their Mother
Goddess and /Husband/Child from the deluge:

"Argo Navis is a symbolic archetype of a great ship, which crosses the waters of
the Deluge as in the Biblical tale of Noah's Arc. It lies entirely in the southern
hemisphere, east of Canis Major, south of Monoceros and Hydra, largely in the
Milky Way. It covers a great extent of the sky; nearly 75 degrees in length, teeming
with masses of stars.... In ancient Egypt it was seen as the boat which carried Isis
and Osiris over the deluge. And the Hindus said that it performed the same function
for Isi and Iswara, they called it the ship Argha, which is similar to the Greek title."
- 951

Robert Temple states in The Sirius Mystery that the constellation Argo represents not only Jason's
ship, the Argo, and Noah's Ark, but it was the Argo that carried one Danaos and his fifty daughters
from Egypt to Greece where Danaos became king of Argos. This sounds suspiciously like
'Danaus', the likely Danite who migrated with his daughters from Palestine to Sparta, a major city-
state in Greece:

"Argo is the constellation representing both Jason's ship with its fifty Argonauts and
Noah's ark. Jason's Argo 'carried Danaos with his fifty daughters from Egypt to
Rhodes', as Allen puts it. He adds: 'The Egyptian story said that it was the ark that bore
Isis and Osiris over the deluge; while the Hindus thought that it performed the same
office for their equivalent Isis and Iswara.'...
"...we have previously encountered this Egyptian idea of the celestial boats in which
their gods sailed through the waters of the heavens. The three Sirius-goddesses:
Sothis, Anukis, and Satis, were all in the same boat. So it is interesting to see that
Argo was a boat connected with Isis and Osiris, for a concept which seem to be
peculiarly stubborn in attaching itself to Argo is the number fifty... we are told that
there were fifty daughters of Dauaus transported from Egypt on the Argo!..." - 942:66-
7
The Argo is no ordinary boat, but a magical barque of the gods. Argo was created by the Greek
goddess Athena, the Isis of Athens, as an oracular 'self-impelled' ship that guides and conveys its
rowers to their appointed destination.

"...an illustration of 'the rower' in the celestial barque...from concepts such as the
idea of a rower and his oar developed...in the Argo myth...: 'in the place where Re (the
Sun) sails with rowing. I am the keeper of the halyard in the boat of the god; I am the
oarsman who does not weary in the barque of Re.' ...when a Pharaoh died he became a
celestial rower. It should be obvious, then, how the concept of 'fifty rowers' by fifty
positions, or oars, came to be important as symbols. It harks back to this Egyptian
motif...
"'Athena when the Argo was built took a timber from the oak tree of Dodona (the
oracular centre of Zeus) and fitted it to the keel. This had the result that the Argo could
itself speak and guide or warn the Argonauts at critical moments, as it actually is
represented as doing in our extant epics on the subject... Parke then emphasizes most
strongly that it is the timber itself that acts as a guide. It is self-sufficient and not
merely an oracular medium. Thus we see that the Argo had a unique capacity for 'self-
impelled motion' which was built into it by Athena (whom Plutarch identifies with
Isis)... 942:68-72

It turns out that that the fifty oarsmen on the good ship Argo were the Anunnaki, i.e., the Nephilim
which descended on Mount Hermon to marry the daughters of men, per Genesis 6. The Anunnaki
were the gods who ruled over Atlantis, and their demonized offspring were the pre-flood
civilization which God judged for its wickedness. Like a good occultist, Robert Temple proceeds
to rewrite the Biblical account of Noah and the Great Flood based on the ancient Babylonian
legend of Gilgamesh. The quest of Jason and the Argonauts for the golden fleece, a symbol of
immortality, is based on Gilgamesh and the Land of the Living:

"In Sumerian, the word an means 'heaven' and Anu is the god of heaven... Osiris is
sometimes known as An...
"...the Anunnaki...were the sons of An (An means 'heaven'), also known as Anu the
great god. These Anunnaki were fifty in number and were called 'the fifty great
gods'... In an early Sumerian fragment of the material concerning the epic hero
Gilgamesh, entitled 'Gilgamesh and the Land of the Living,' we find an antecedent to
the tradition of the Argonauts of the Greeks... In the story from this fragment, the
hero, Gilgamesh, wishes to go to the 'land of the living', which is described as being in
the charge of the sun god Utu. In the story of Jason and the Argonauts, the hero, Jason,
wishes to search for the golden fleece, which is known to be a solar symbol." -
942:82-89

In pagan renditions of the Great Flood, the Anunnaki Argonauts escape the judgment of God by
simply sailing through the cosmic sea in their magical ships. The celestial barques in which they
are preserved are symbolic of the Mother Goddess who gives them birth. Having fought the
dragon, they sow the dragons teeth in the earth, which spring up into people. When the cosmic
battle is over, the Argonauts/Anunnaki, endowed with superhuman strength and immortality,
repopulate the world with a race of demi-gods:

"In the Sumerian fragment... 'The hero, his teeth are the teeth of a dragon.' In the
Jason story, the hero, Jason, sows the dragon's teeth!. (So does Cadmus in another
Greek tale...)
"In the Jason story, Jason is accompanied on his quest by the fifty Argonauts. In the
Sumerian fragment, Gilgamesh is accompanied by fifty companions also!... So we see
 Sumerian fragment, Gilgamesh is accompanied by fifty companions also!... So we see
that in the two Greek myths and also in the Sumerian fragment, the dragon's teeth go
to the ground and a fight ensues where the hero has acquired superhuman strength...
"...So Jason and the Argonauts, fifty in number, all shared a kind of shadowy
anonymity somewhat reminiscent of the fifty Anunnaki of Sumer... — a group of fifty
related oarsmen in a celestial boat...
"For the ark of Noah is a concept which is identical with that of the ark of
Deukalion [the Greek Noah], and both are magical ships in which sit 'those who come
out of the womb', in the sense that they repopulate the world after the deluge. And
both arks, but particularly that of Deukalion, are concepts related to the Argo...
"...the Argonaut motif of fifty heroes in a boat on a heroic quest exists in Sumer and
forms a complement to the 'fifty great gods'. For if the Magan-boat's fifty heroes are
seated, as the Anunnaki usually are, and are 'those who come forth out of the womb',
and thus children, so to speak of Nintu, 'the goddess who gives birth', then they may
be directly equated with the Anunnaki. For the Anunnaki, as the children of An, would
also be the children of An's ancient consort Ki or Nintu. In other words, the fifty
heroes are heroic counterparts of the celestial Anunnaki. The corollary of this is, that
the fact that there are fifty Anunnaki is not so likely to be a coincidence as might have
been thought. This brings out all the more the immense significance of the number
fifty." - 942:82-89

It appears that fifty Anunnaki wanted to marry the fifty daughters of Danaus in order to murder
them; however, Danaus fled to Greece with his daughters where they sat on fifty shining
thrones in the city of Argos, of which their father had become king, and whose right to the
throne was defended by a wolf, which Danaus asserts, is Apollo in disguise. Now Apollo is
none other than Apollyon, the king of the Abyss:

And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless
pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek
tongue hath his name Apollyon. - Rev. 9:11

"It is interesting in the light of our knowledge of Danaus having fifty daughters to
read the opening of Pindar's tenth Nemean Ode which is written largely about the city
of Argos (a name related to Argo just as was the name Argus of the Argo's builder and
as was the word 'ark'):
The city of Danaos
And his fifty daughters on shining thrones,
Sing of it, Graces,
Of Argos, home of Hera, fit for the gods.
"Perseus and Danae also have a connection with Argos. And as for the Graces here
mentioned,...are often associated with Hermes and called 'the Graces of Hermes'...
"What is so especially significant about this passage of Pindar's is the expression
'and his fifty daughters on shining thrones'. It will be remembered that the throne is the
hieroglyph for Ast or Isis identified with Sirius, that the fifty Anunnaki of Sumer were
on thrones, etc...
"Danaos learns that his [twin] brother [Aegyptos] wishes to marry his fifty sons to
Danaos's fifty daughters with the aim of killing the fifty daughters after marrying
them. So Danaos and his daughters all take flight to Rhodes and then to Greece where
they land and Danaos announces that he is divinely chosen to become the King of
Argos...
"The way in which Danaos became King of Argos was that a wolf came down from
the hills and killed the lead bull and the Argives accepted the omen. 'Danaos,
 the hills and killed the lead bull and the Argives accepted the omen. 'Danaos,
convinced that the wolf had been Apollo in disguise, dedicated the famous shrine to
wolfish Apollo at Argos, and became so powerful a ruler that all of the Pelasgians of
Greece called themselves Danaans."- 942:165-167

In ancient mythology, consistency of the facts presented is subordinate to the occult concepts and
prinicples contained therein, which are the whole message. And so, some accounts of the Danaus
myth have fifty daughters and others have fifty sons. Some say Danaus' brother had the fifty
sons. No matter. The important thing is the message, in this case, that the offspring of Danaus
brought the Egyptian mysteries to Greece on the Argo.

"He also built the citadel of Argos, and his daughters brought the Mysteries of
Demeter, called Thesmophoria, from Egypt and taught these to the Pelasgian women...
"...what was really meant to be significant aobut Danaos's progeny was not their sex
but their number of fifty. And from Pindar we see that they were on fifty thrones. The
fact that Aegyptos of Egypt had fifty sons as well and that Danaos's daughters...taught
the Egyptian mysteries to the Greeks all indicates that what transpired was a
transplanting from Egypt to Greece of the all-important tradition to be common to
both countries from then on--the fifty linked with the Dog Star Sirius and as celestial
thrones. In other words, the mystery of the orbit of Sirius B around Sirius A in its fifty
celestial steps." - 942:167

Robert Temple's book, The Sirius Mystery, maintains that the Dog Star, Sirius, was the location of
intelligent beings who visited earth in ages past and taught mankind the body of sacred alchemical
traditions that have been preserved in the Egyptian mysteries. Temple contends that a cryptic
allusion to the Dog Star, Sirius, was incorporated into the Argo myth. In the Sirian tradition, a wolf
is sometimes substituted for a dog, and when Apollo appeared to terrorize the inhabitants of Argo
he did so in the form of a wolf. The chief characteristic of werewolves is shape-shifting, the ability
to change from human form into a wolf and back again. Not surprisingly, it was from Arcadia in
Greece that the werewolf cult arose:

"The way in which Danaos became King of Argos was that a wolf came down from
the hills and killed the lead bull and the Argives accepted the omen. 'Danaos,
convinced that the wolf had been Apollo in disguise, dedicated the famous shrine to
wolfish Apollo at Argos, and became so powerful a ruler that all of the Pelasgians of
Greece called themselves Danaans... The element of the wolf, sometimes substituted
for a dog in the Sirius tradition of the Dog Star, is important. It is an obvious
European substitute for the non-existent jackal of Anubis. It was from this changing of
the jackal into the wolf through adaptation to the European clime that those peculiar
wolf traditions arose in Arcadia which developed in pre-classical times into the
werewolf concepts. Human blood-sucking vampires,...and lycanthropy of werewolves
all luxuriated in the wilds of Arcady among the Pelasgian survivors in pre-classical
Greece after the Dorian invasion... What is a werewolf? It is a man's body with a
wolf's head.... And the temples of Wolfish (or Lycian) Apollo, were not altogether rare
in Greece. Aristotle's famous school of Athens, the Lyceum, was in the grounds of the
Lycian Apollo's temple just outside the Athens Gate of Diochares..." - 942:167

Lest the reader think that lycanthropy exists only in the movies, we mention here two well-known
vampires that are frequent speakers for conferences of the American Family Foundation and
Evangelical Ministries to New Religions (EMNR): Massimo Introvigne of CESNUR (Center for
the Study of New Religions) and J. Gordon Melton who is president of the American chapter of
the Transylvanian Society of Dracula, a *vampire* association! These modern day vampires also

capacities at the fascist organization, Tradition, Family and Property (TFP).

See: Photos of J. Gordon Melton and Massimo Introvigne in *Vampire Attire*

Also, “The eminent leaders of the American New Right, Paul Weyrich and Morton Blackwell together
with the president of the USA T.F.P., John Spann”.

Tradition, Family and Property is a neo-fascist cult which maintains a paramilitary structure of
warrior-monks in Brazil. The founder, Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira, speaks of the monks' 'sacred
slavery to the Virgin.' We detect an affiliation with the Knights Templar, who were devoted to the
Black Virgin and also dedicated to reviving the Holy Roman Empire.

"T.F.P., which recently underwent a split, is one of the most extreme movements
ever to have arisen in Latin America. Its founder presented himself as 'the
preeminent philosopher' of such a doctrine and the author of '15 books and over
2,500 in-depth essays and articles'. In his militant essays, which range from In
Defence of Catholic Action and Revolution and Counter-Revolution to The Church
in the Communist State: an Impossible Coexistence, he openly calls for setting up a
world-wide 'Christian' regime based on Medieval hierarchy and repression.

"The sacred slavery to the Virgin [...] This consecration is of an

admirably radical nature. It includes not only the material belongings
of man, but also the merits of his good deeds, his life, his body and his
soul. It has no limits, since the slave, by definition, owns nothing. In
exchange for this consecration, the Virgin works inside her slave in a
marvellous fashion, setting up an ineffable union with him." (Plinio
Corrêa de Oliveira, La devozione mariana e l'apostolato contro-rivoluzionario, in
Cristianità, the official magazine of Alleanza Cattolica, Nov.- Dec. 1995, p. 15.) - 366

The subject of modern-day werewolves in sheep's clothing will be resumed in the next section on
the False Prophet in Cancer. For now, we shall consider the issue of lycanthropy as it originated in
Arcadia in ancient Greece. In "The History of the Werewolf," we learn that Apollo was a protector
of the wolves who were sacred to the god, Hermes. Apollo also happens to be the twin brother of
Artemis, aka Diana, the lesbian goddess worshipped by the Prieuré de Sion and its antecedents!

"To start with the classical references: Apart from the famous legend of Romulus
and Remus, saved and fed by a friendly she-wolf, there are many other mythological
and religious tales from this area of Europe: Apollo, the famous Greek God of Light,
Medicine and Music, was born, together with his twin Arthemis, from Zeus and
Latona, a woman turned into a she-wolf to be disguised and so protected from the
wrath of Era, Zeus’ official wife (and sister). For this reason Apollo was always
looked upon as a protector, both from and of the wolves: they were not to be killed if
not absolutely necessary.
"Then there is the legend of Licao (Greek and almost Italian for hunting dog), the
very first renowned werewolf: this man was the king of Arcadia and he knew that,
disguised among the wanderers he hosted, Zeus himself was hiding. So he decided to
discover which one was Zeus: he killed his youngest son, Arcade, and prepared a meal
with his flesh: only a God would know the taste of human flesh and from this he
could tell who the unfortunate meal was. The hungry wanderers wolfed down their
meal, but Zeus was so angry for the useless murder that he instantly turned the king
 meal, but Zeus was so angry for the useless murder that he instantly turned the king
himself into a wolf.
"Then another Greek peculiarity was the great number of white and albino wolves:
they were found especially around Hermes’ temples, so they were considered sacred to
this God, protector of the wandering shepherds and of the cattle, and should never be
harmed. Greeks had an excellent relation with wolves, since the population was very
scarce and mainly concentrated around the coasts and did not often interfered with
wolfish affairs." - 965

According to the Anchor Bible Dictionary, the name Apollo in Greek is Apollon and is often
associated with Apollyon.

"APOLLYON. The Greek name, meaning 'Destroyer,' given in Revelation 9:11 for 'the
angel of the bottomless pit' (in Hebrew called Abaddon), also identified as the king of
the demonic 'locusts' described in Revelation 9:3-10... In one manuscript, instead of
Apollyon the text reads 'Apollo,' the Greek god of death and pestilence as well as of
the sun, music, poetry, crops and herds, and medicine. Apollyon is no doubt the
correct reading. But the name Apollo (Gk Apollon) was often linked in ancient Greek
writings with the verb apollymi or apollyo, 'destroy.' From this time of Grotius,
'Apollyon' has often been taken here to be a play on the name Apollo. The locust was
an emblem of this god, who poisoned his victims, and the name 'Apollyon' may be
used allusively in Revelation to attack the pagan god and so indirectly the Roman
emperor Domitian, who liked to be regarded as Apollo incarnate."

Apollo, one of the most important Greek deities, is therefore identical with Apollyon, who is
described in Revelation 9 as the king of the locusts which rose from the smoke of the bottomless
pit at the sounding of the fifth trumpet:

And they had a king over them, which is the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name
in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in the Greek tongue hath his name Apollyon.--
Rev 9:11

Apollo derived his name from the sun-god, 'Abal', who derived his name from the apple. From
'Abal' is also derived the name of Avalon, home of King Arthur and his knights of the Round
Table.

"Mr. Lewis Spence, The Minor Traditions of British Mythology, tells us that the
common apple tree reached Greece from the North. It was adopted by the Greek
sun-god as especially sacred to him, and from the Celtic word 'Abal' an apple, the
god derived his name Apollo. Avalon, Avallach and Avalloch are Celtic variations
of the same word... [Rhys, Arthurian Legend]" - 894

The apple is traditionally, although not Scripturally, the forbidden fruit which the serpent gave
Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. Ancient and classical mythology, as well as the
Arthurian legend, are replete with symbolic apples. In The White Goddess, Robert Graves
states: ''The connection of the apple tree with immortality is both ancient and widespread'.
Immortality is precisely the esoteric significance of the Golden Fleece, which is really a Golden
Apple. In The Twelve Labours of Hercules, the god of Atlantis with whom Jason is identified,
the eleventh labor was to fetch the golden apples which belonged to Zeus, king of the gods.
These apples were guarded by......a fierce dragon!
 "The adventures of Jason and the Argonauts and their search for the Golden Fleece
is one of many legends concerning a heroic quest for a golden apple. The Greek
word for sheep - 'melon'- can also mean apple. 'The 'Golden Fleece' can be
translated as 'The Golden Apple.' The adventures of Jason in Colchis are almost
identical with that of Hercules in the Hesperides and also with that of Siegfried. All
three fight a serpent dragon. The prize a golden treasure." - 894

We are close to detecting the esoteric meaning of Jason and the Argonauts who sailed the good
ship Argo, as well as the occult significance of the minor constellation (decan) of Argo. In the
occult, we have already established that good is evil and vice versa. Colin Wilson provides
some useful insights as to heroes in the Bible from an occult point of view. First, the occultist
would say that the serpent was just trying to help Adam and Eve escape from their prison of
matter. Following this fiasco, Cain, who was the seed of that wicked one, and others who have
been misunderstood were only trying to save the human race:

"One sect of Gnostics, called the Ophites (from the Greek ophis, serpent)
believed that the snake in the Garden of Eden was an agent of divine goodness who
gave man forbidden knowledge so that he could set out on the long road to saving
his soul. The chief characteristic of the Gnostic doctrine is its tendency to make
heroes of the villains of the Old Testament--Cain, Esau and so on. The Gnostics
disliked Judaism, with its narrow, bigoted values even more than they disliked the
degenerate religions of Greece and Rome.
"Man, then, finds himself in a prison, but because of the help of the wise
serpent..., he has a chance of escape through knowledge. (Gnosis equals
knowledge.) Man's true home is the Divine Light... By the use of this will and
intellect, he will eventually achieve freedom..." - 454:203

Actor, writer and producer Tim Robbins succinctly stated the goal of the New Age Movement:

"Our purpose is to consciously, deliberately evolve toward a wiser, more liberated

and luminous state of being; to return to Eden, make friends with the snake and set
up our computers among the wild apple trees." - 449

FOOL'S GOLD

There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is

gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows if the
stores are closed
With a word she can get what she came for
And she's buying a stairway to heaven...
Dear lady, can you hear the wind blow,
And did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind.
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul.
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold.
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last.
 The tune will come to you at last.
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll.
And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
- Robert Plant, "Stairway to Heaven"

At a deeper level, Jason's quest for the Golden Fleece and Hercules' search for the Golden
Apples are alchemical quests for immortality. Gold being the alchemical symbol of divinity and
immortality, chemical experiments have been conducted attempting to transmute base metal
into gold. However the real motive behind these laboratory experiments has been to yield
information of a spiritual nature that will enable mankind to transcend his material condition.
These amateur deities are determined to recover the alchemical sciences which were known to
ancient mankind, but lost in the Deluge:

"Alchemy , or 'Al-Kemi', is said to be derived from Arabic or Egyptian meaning

either 'divine chemistry' or possibly 'black earth' referring to the silt deposits from
the annual flooding of the Nile river. However, regardless of where the word
‘alchemy' began, it has come to mean a very special form of spiritual development.
"From Plato's Greece to the European Renaissance, ancient Egypt was held to be
the land, if not the origin, of all things mystical. The Egyptian god Thoth, called
Hermes by the Greeks, was said to be the father of all magical arts and sciences,
with numerous books on the laws governing creation being attributed to him. These
books became the basis of most Western occult teachings, and are known as “The
Hermetic Corpus or the “Body of Hermes , and refers to the total collection of
works attributed to the ‘scribe of the gods'. The teachings and practice contained in
these writings are called “Hermeticism , and in the Renaissance came to include
aspects of Jewish mysticism (kabbalah), alchemy, the use of ritual, and
communication with super-celestial beings, or angels.
"For the magician, or even the alchemist, the universe is perceived as a
reflection of the imagination of the Godhead. Its laws are consistent and logical,
and if we are created in the image of the Creator, then we can also create as the
Creator has - through the power of imagination. Intense imagination creates a stress
on the ‘fabric' of the universe, drawing to it magnetic power, thus bringing our
images to fruition.
"The fundamental ideas of Renaissance magic and alchemy are also found in
Eastern yoga, and are the basis for the New Age movement, as well as hypno-
therapy, guided visualizations for mental health or cancer treatment, affirmations
and an assortment of other psycho-spiritual practices." - 968

The great work of alchemy is the transmutation of the physical body into a body of light. The
medium for this transformation is believed to be a type of gold which alchemists call the 'nectar
of the gods,' 'Star Fire,' and other terms suggesting occult enlightenment. According to
Laurence Gardner, "There are, in fact, two contrasting forms of physical gold - the
straightforward metal as we know it, and a much higher (or 'highward') state of gold. The latter
is gold in a different dimension of perceived matter, the white powder of gold, the 'hidden
manna' whose secret was known only by the Master Craftsmen..." "

Alchemical gold was the Golden Fleece sought by Jason and the Argonauts as well as the
Golden Apples secured by Hercules. Laurence Gardner wrote in Genesis of the Grail Kings that
the succession of Grail kings, from Cain onward, derived their divine powers from the ingestion
of alchemical gold.
 "...the alchemical and scientific process...facilitates the genesis of the Grail Kings.
This line of succession from Cain, through Egypt to King David and onward to
Jesus, was purpose-bred to be the earthly Purveyors of the Light. They were the
true Sons of the Gods, who were fed firstly on Anunnaki Star Fire from about 3800
BC and, subsequently, on 'high-spin' metal supplements from about 2000 BC. In
short, they were bred to be leaders of humankind, and they were both mentally and
physically maintained in the 'highward' state: the ultimate dimension of the missing
44 per cent -- the dimension of the Orbit of Light, or the Plane of Sharon." - 742

The Plane of Sharon is regarded by alchemists as the plane of light or enlightenment, where the
mind and spirit are not imprisoned by matter.

"Gold is the most noble of metals and was always representative of Truth.
Through the regular use of Anunnaki Star Fire (the Gold of the Gods) the recipients
had been moved into realms of heightened awareness and consciousness because of
its inherent melatonin and serotonin.
"This was the realm of advanced enlightenment which was called the Plane of
Sharon (a style later corrupted and misapplied to the coastal Plain of Sharon in
Israel), and the Star Fire gold was deemed to be the ultimate route to the Light.
Hence, the heavy, mundane person (lead) could be elevated to a heightened state of
awareness (perceived as gold), and this was the root of all alchemical lore
thereafter." - 741

Alchemists believe that the ingestion of white powdered gold alters the DNA in such as way as
to release the body from matter. David Hudson is a popular Merovingian and alchemist who
advises that ingesting the white powder for nine months, following a forty day fast, would
transform a person into a light being. Following the trail of the current alchemical gold fever
leads back in time to the Society of Ormus, the antecedent of the Prieuré de Sion. 'Ormus'
means light, or enlightenment, which is the alchemical gold.

"Gold has long been called the metal of wisdom by the Illuminati...[who] are well
aware of the alchemical quest to create the correct type of gold which will bring
enlightenment to the world... David Hudson...of the deGuise lineage...patented
white [powdered] gold [which he] named...Ormus [or Ormes], which is the occult
name for the Prieuré de Sion... David Hudson has given mankind the most
important secret that has captivated the best minds of the occult world for centuries,
the Quest for the Philosopher's Stone." 49:321

Following the money trail, control of the world's gold leads to the Rothschild bloodline:

"To this day, N.M. Rothschild & Sons of London still lists as its primary business
the selling and buying of treasuries and gold bullion. N.M. Rothschild helps fix the
price of gold in London each day through the LBMA. A recent London Times
articles explained that the gold price fix ceremony where five men (including a
Rothschild) talk on their phones for 10 minutes, then lower tiny Union Jacks sitting
on their desks, thereby fixing London's gold price each day. This ceremony takes
place at 10:30 a.m. and 3 p.m., like clockwork, the same way, in the same place,
and with mostly the same firms participating since the first gold fixing was enacted
at Rothschild in St. Swithin's Lane on Friday Sept. 12, 1919. The company's name
is also associated with many gold mining companies (e.g. Trillion Resources Ltd.
and other Canadian mining companies)." - 645
According to Georg Agricola's De natura fossillium (On the Nature of Fossils, 1546), the
ancient Greek and Roman authors viewed the ingestion of gold as an elixir of youth: "Metallic
gold is used by the alchemists to prepare a liquid that they affirm will restore youth when
drunk.'." - 649

One of the recent signs and lying wonders of the Charismatic movement has been the gold dust
manifestations. Like the snake oil salesman of yore, false prophets and prophetesses promote
sprinklings of white powdered gold in their meetings as a sign of the Holy Spirit. What has
been the fruit of the Charismatic gold fever? Gwen Shaw, president of the End-Time
Handmaidens and Servants, puts the typical spin on the fatal effects of gold dust:

The Revival of Joy...'The Toronto Blessing'...was followed by 'The Pensacola

Revival' which brought into the lives of the Assembly of God young people. That
was followed by the manifestation of Gold Dust which was seen by many of us in
the End-Time Handmaidens and Servants Convention when Rev. Robert Shattles
preached to us. But God took both him and Ruth Heflin (who also had the
manifestation of the Gold Dust) Home to Glory. The last I heard, Silvania
Machado, from Brazil still has this manifestation when she preaches. This last
manifestation was one that never was very wide-spread. It was not a revival, rather
it was a sign and wonder." - 648:21-2

This next testimony states that, as the gold dust 'fell from heaven', gullible Charismatics were
told to lick it off the floor! Claims that people were healed of cancer soon turned into reports of
the gold dust eaters contracting cancer.

"They are claiming that people are being healed of cancers by placing the gold
dust on them. People are eating the stuff right off the floor. One local evangelist
rented a limo and took a bunch of pastors to the gold mine...
"I guess you know that Ruth Heflin died on Sept. 23, 2000. Died of CANCER.
The Lord told me that there was CANCER in the gold dust.
"When this thing first started, I have it on tape that there is CANCER in this
deception. We had several ministers here that went and had heart attacks
immediately...
"MARCH 2001 issue of CHARISMA magazine reported that Bob Shattles has
liver CANCER.
"July 18, 2001 - I got an email that said Bob Shattles died this day." - 747

Perhaps the Golden Fleece is an esoteric reference to fleecing the sheep! The signature of the
astrological sign of Cancer seems to be the disease with that very name:

"Astrologers associate with Cancer pregnancy, imprisonment, baptism and rebirth,

the awakening of consciousness, and a tendency to prefer seclusion.
Hippocrates...for reasons which he did not make explicit (but perhaps in reference
to a demon of disease popularly believed to take on animal form), used the word
for 'crab' to designate tumors, and this is the source our word 'cancer'." - 100:78-9

Medieval alchemists also died from ingesting the elixirs of youth which they manufactured in
their laboratories. According to a 'master alchemist': "Alchemists did not just die from inhaling
mercury fumes, or from lead poisoning. They also died from taking the actual Elixirs and the
Stone itself ... because they were not sufficiently prepared." - 969
Alchemists generally agree that the epic poem, Jason and the Argonauts, conceals an esoteric
formula for the great work of transformation. One famous alchemist who was Grand Master of
the Prieuré de Sion from 1691 until his death in 1727, wrote an alchemical interpretation of
Jason's quest. Note the parallels with the gospel of salvation through sacrificing a ram instead of
a Lamb:

"Sir Isaac Newton's Clavis [Formula]...entails the chief substances symbolized

in the Jason myth.
"According to the myth, Chrysomellos, the winged ram sent by beneficent
Olympian deities rescues a child from the homicidal plot of his stepmother,
carrying him safely to the eastern shores of the Black sea. Here the miraculous ram
becomes a sacrifice, its fleece hung upon an oak tree in a grove sacred to Ares and
guarded by a dragon. The scenario refers metaphorically to the descent of the
Divine from above the highest sepheroth, Kether, down the Kabbalistic tree of life
to the lowest sepheroth, Malkuth, Earth in the presence of the element Antimony,
who's vital spirit, philosophic mercury, remains still in tact. Matter has become the
prison of spirit. Insightful wisdom and artful alchemical manipulation may release
it...
"In a major episode exactly reminiscent of Cadmus, Jason must sow serpents
teeth into a field. From these seeds spring an army of ghost warriors who fight each
other to death. The seed of gold, the serpent teeth are extracted from the layer of
scoria above the purified antimony, the mercurial serpent, using sal ammoniac,
ammonium chloride in the procedure of sublimation. This seed after purification is
then sewn into meticulously prepared philosophical mercury. This metallic mixture
then sealed hermetically in a flask undergoes a long gradually heated fermentation.
Color changes clearly mark the major stages of this incubation along with the
emergence and dissolution from the molten mass of many strange forms described
metaphorically in the Jason myth as a battle of ghost warriors. Newton and other
adept authors describe these forms as fast growing metallic trees. An anonymous
contemporary operator recently perceived these forms as rapidly sprouting heads of
cauliflower that soon dissolved back into the putrefying chaos contained in his
hermetic flask." - 967

Eastern yoga techniques release the kundalini fire leading to rapid liberation from the physical
realm; the material body becomes pure light and the adept can materialize and discarnate at
will. A contemporary yogin (guru) here describes the ascent of the kundalini serpent to produce
the ethereal body: According to this authority, the myth of Jason and the Argonauts is an
alchemical formula for achieving the necessary trance state:

"J. Nigro Sansonese, a contemporary yogin as well as professor of math and

physics delivers a brilliantly argued thesis in his recent The Body of Myth.
Expanding the tradition of C.G. Jung and Joseph Campbell he explicates the
anatomic, physiologic and neurologic basis of the great world myths. Such myths
trek out the physical geography of man's body as the spiritual current moves up the
spinal ladder of ascending attention to culminate in the ecstatic rapture of gnosis.
"According to Sansonese myths reveal in esoteric language the stages of bodily
transformation leading to contemplative trance. He includes an entire chapter on
Jason and the Argonauts. Jason's ship, the argo refers to the cranium. The fifty
argonauts represent the five senses withdrawn from fragmented external experience
yet focused on the inward journey into trance. Two of these argonauts, the
Dioscuri, Castor and Pollux are esoteric descriptions of alternate nostril breathing.
 "The rowing contest between Jason and Hercules constitutes a further example
of alternate nostril breathing just previous to the experience of trance symbolized
as the heroes collapse from exhaustion into unconsciousness. The author speaks
from his own experience of meditative absorption when he describes minutely
perceptible changes in the sutures and sinuses of the skull during breathing which
correlate to elements of the stages in the argonauts' journey." - 967

For those who are willing to admit the alchemist has no clothes, esoteric ramblings such as the
above seem more like the products of deranged minds than rational men. In his delusional state,
the alchemist babbles nonsense, but is accounted exceptionally gifted. Isaac Newton was a
brilliant man in the world's estimation, yet he suffered from insomnia, severe depression and
experienced at least two nervous breakdowns during his discontented lifetime. In 1692 Newton
admitted to have "lost his reason." Occultists often flaunt their superior intellects, imagining
themselves to be divinely inspired, but they should soberly consider the source of their
inspiration. Those who plumb the depths of Satan ought to expect that Apollyon, the god of
destruction, will establish a stronghold in their minds and eventually destroy their sanity. We
should pity the poor occultists. Trying to play God, they become fools.

Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, And changed the glory of the
uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and
fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. - Rom. 1:22-23

ANTICHRIST IN CANCER

"The stars must be aligned in a specific way in order for Set [Satan] to be properly invoked."
— Kenneth Grant, Grand Master, OTO

"The three constellations develop the

truth. What is now called Ursa Minor is
the Lesser Flock; Ursa Major gives us
The Sheepfold and the Sheep; while
Argo, The Ship, shows the travellers and
the pilgrims brought safely home—all
conflict over." (Bullinger) - 939

Ursa Major and Ursa Minor are the constellations of the Great Bear and Little Bear. They are
commonly known today as the Big and Little Dipper, although they extend beyond the Dipper
constellations. In spite of the fact that these constellations are represented in the Greek zodiac
by wild beasts, Bullinger, Kennedy and other proponents of the false 'gospel in the stars' theory
maintain that Ursa Major and Ursa Minor represent sheepfolds.

"The meaning [of Cancer] is made even clearer as we consider the three decans.
On a planisphere Ursa Minor is found near the center of the ecliptic and is called
today The Little Bear. However, this is not the ancient meaning of the
constellations Ursa Minor and Ursa Major. In fact, never did a bear have such a
tail as that! Actually, there is no bear in the planisphere or zodiacs of the
Chaldeans, Persians, Egyptians, or the Indians. Rather, what we have here is a
sheepfold, which is believed to be the original meaning of Ursa Minor.
"The figure of a sheepfold probably comes from the fact that one of the brightest
stars in Ursa Major is the star Dubheh, which means a 'Herd of Animals' and is
very similar to the word Dob or the Hebrew Dowb, which means 'The Bear.' This
could be the reason the sign changed over time. But it is really referring to a little
fold and a great fold. God's Church is the little flock--the gathering together of his
people...
"The second decan [in the sign of Cancer] is Ursa Major, probably the best
known of all of the constellations in the sky. We don't know it as the Great Bear,
as the Greeks called it, but we call it The Big Dipper... Like Ursa Minor, Ursa
Major is neither a dipper or a bear. Rather it is the greater sheepfold, as pictured in
the most ancient planispheres or zodiacs of the various nations...
 "Other stars in Ursa Major are El Alcola, 'The Sheepfold'; Cab'd al Asad,
'Multitude of the Assembled'; El Kaprah, 'The Protected,' or in Hebrew 'The
Redeemed' or 'Ransomed.' A more familiar star, Callisto, again means 'The
Sheepfold.'..." - 872:109-114

The word Ursa comes from the Latin "ursus", which means bear. According to Webster's
Dictionary, the Anglo-Saxon word for bear (bera) is derived from the Latin word fera meaning
'wild beast'. This ferocious beast is of the genus Ursus:

Bear \Bear\, n. [OE. bere, AS. bera; akin to D. beer, OHG. bero, pero, G. b["a]r,
Icel. & Sw. bj["o]rn, and possibly to L. fera wild beast, Gr. ? beast, Skr. bhalla
bear.]

1. (Zo["o]l.) Any species of the genus Ursus, and of the closely allied genera.
Bears are plantigrade Carnivora, but they live largely on fruit and insects. Note:

THE PLANTARD FAMILY CREST

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise
up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and
upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of
blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a
leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a BEAR, and his
mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his
power, and his seat, and great authority. - Rev. 13:1-2
"The Rampant Bear...emblem...depicts just this - the Bear constellation tied to the Pole of the
earth's axis, and dancing around it."
— Peter Dawkins, Arcadia

The Plantard family crest is regarded as the key to the Typhonian/Draconian Current, which is
the demonic lineage of the Merovingian bloodline. The Typhonian Current refers to the
Dragon lineage of Satan. Revelation 12:9 states: And the great dragon was cast out, that old
serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world. "Typhon is...Plutarch
asserts, the distinct 'Evil Principle' or the Satan of the Jews." (316) The key to the Draconian
lineage — the Plantard crest — has been elucidated by Kenneth Grant, the Grand Master of
the Ordo Templi Orientis (OTO), the occult organization once headed by Aleister Crowley.
Note the Merovingian symbols, the bears and the bees, in the Plantard crest. Also, do not miss
Grant's assertion, amply supported by other sources, that the Prieuré de Sion has for some time
controlled the Vatican. In his book Outer Gateways Kenneth Grant wrote:

“In The Holy Blood and The Holy Grail, the authors reproduce the family
crest of Clan Plantard, the contemporary representative of which was, until
recently, the Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion, an Order which, according to
[Henry] Lincoln, dominated the Order of the Knights Templar and various other
highly influential institutions which, at certain periods of history, included the
Vatican. The crest which supplies the key to the [Typhonian/ Draconian] Current
represented by the Merovingian bloodline and the Order of Sion, comprises the
symbols of the Typhonian line of descent: the two bears, eleven bees, and the
fleur de lys. The motto incorporated in the crest reads 'et in Arcadia ego.'
Arcadia=127, which is the number of the Egyptian Goddess Heqt who was
typified by the 'lower part of the back, or haunch.'
“The two bears denote the Mother (Typhon) and her son (Set) [Satan]. The
image of the bee pictorializes the buzzing or humming vibration peculiar to the
 image of the bee pictorializes the buzzing or humming vibration peculiar to the
Outer Ones, or their vehicles. Eleven is the number of Those who are Without, or
beyond, the Tree of Life, thus identifying the Outer Ones.' The Outer Ones are
also the Qliphoth or the Ancient Ones of Lovecraftian lore. That the Typhonian
Tradition and the Merovingian Tradition share the same important symbols seems
to be much more then a mere coincidence.” - 571

THE DRACONIAN CURRENT

The Typhonian or Draconian Tradition refers to the secret doctrine of the Ordo Draconis, the
Order of the Dragon which is associated with the Rosicrucians:

"In 1408...the Dragon Court was formally reconstituted as a sovereign body at a

time of wars and general political turmoil. The Court's reemergence was instigated
by Sigismund von Luxembourg, king of Hungary, a descendant of the Lusignan
Dragon Kings of Jerusalem. Having inherited the legacy in 1397 he drew up a pact
with twenty-three nobles who swore to observe 'true and pure fraternity' within the
Societas Draconis (later called Ordo Draconis) — Hungarian: Sarkany Rend. The
founding document...stated that members of the Court might wear the insignia of a
dragon incurved into a circle, with a red cross — the very emblem of the original
Rosicrucis which had identified the Grail succession from before 3000 B.C."
(348:225)

The Draconian Current refers to the demonic bloodline which is represented by the Dragon
Order. The Dragon Court was constituted in 1408 for the express purpose of preserving the
ancient Vere bloodline. Of this bloodline Godfroi de Bouillon was a member, according to
"From Transylvania to Tunbridge Wells" on the Dagobert's Revenge website:

"...The Holy Grail itself was Elven as was Jesus himself, complete with his
Crown of Fairy Thorns, depicted as the headgear of Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon
in the 12th century...
"The Dragon Court exists as an organization solely for the bloodline descendants
of the ancient Vere family -- the senior bloodline successors as a Scythian-
Merovin, Elven House of Princess Maelasanu -- and for those whose bloodlines are
extracted from this descent and its ancient Dragon Court." (342:5)

We have already documented in the previous section that Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair and his
son, Thomas, descended from Godfroi de Bouillon, the first Grand Master of the Prieuré de
Sion. In his book, Genesis of the Grail Kings, Laurence Gardner locates the Plantard bloodline
within this Draconian Current:

"The Plantagenets were themselves a junior branch of the House of Anjou, whose
senior branch was the House of Vere [whose] ancestry was jointly Pictish and
Merovingian descending from the ancient Grail House of Scythia." (248:8)

In "Starfire: Gold of the Gods", Gardner elucidates the ancient pedigree of the Dragon
succession, which began with Cain, supposedly the offspring of Eve and Satan. Gardiner'
revision of the Genesis account traces the genealogy of Jesus back to Cain, who was therefore
an offspring of the Annunaki:

"One of the interesting items from the archives of the Dragon Court
was the origin of the word 'kingship'. It derives from the very earliest
 was the origin of the word 'kingship'. It derives from the very earliest
of Sumerian culture wherein 'kingship' was identical with 'kinship' -
and 'kin' means 'blood relative'. In its original form, 'kinship' was
'Kainship'. And the first King of the Messianic Dragon succession was
the biblical 'C(Kain)', head of the Sumerian House of Kish.
"On recognizing this, one can immediately see the first anomaly in
the tradition of the Genesis story, for the historical line from David to
Jesus was not from Adam and Eve's son, Seth, at all. It was from Eve's
son Cain, whose recorded successors (although given little space in the
Old Testament) were the first great Kings (or Kains) of Mesopotamia
and Egypt...
"According to the Dragon tradition, the importance of Cain was that
he was directly produced by Enki [Satan] and Ava [Eve], so his blood
was three quarters Anunnaki. His half brothers Hevel and Satanael
(better known as Abel and Seth) were less than half Anunnaki, being
the offspring of Ateba and Ava (Adam and Eve)..." - 612 (Part I)

ET IN ARCADIA EGO

"Et in Arcadia Ego" inscribed on the arch between the two bears is an esoteric reference to
Arcadia, the Greek city where Danaus and his fifty daughters introduced the worship of the
mother goddess. Arcadia represents the Rosicrucian's envisioned Paradise on earth.

"Arcadia was one of the primary mystery names given to the state of the world in
a Golden Age, and the whole Arcadian imagery and allegory is that of a Utopia
or Paradise on earth that might be achieved. The world is on the threshold of that
achievement now, according to the way the evolutionary cycles of divine law
work. Jesus Christ and the Buddha prepared us for it in an outstanding way;
Francis Bacon...and the Rosicrucian Brotherhood have inaugurated it. All have
used Arcadian imagery, the meaning of which pierces deep, right to the heart of
all mysteries." - 889:15

According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, a sacred river flows from Arcadia to the underworld.
This underground stream, Alpheus, represents a demonic bloodline to which the the Plantard
bloodline belongs.

"Arcadia...is frequently denoted by a fountain or a tombstone, both of which

are associated with an underground stream. This stream is usually equated with
the river Alpheus—the central river in the actual geographical Arcadia in Greece,
which flows underground and is said to surface again at the Fountain of Arethusa
in Sicily. From the remotest antiquity to Coleridge's 'Kubla Khan' the river
Alpheus has been deemed sacred. Its very name derives from the same root as the
Greek word alpha, meaning 'first' or 'source.'...
"...the underground stream...might connote an unacknowledged and thus
'subterranean' bloodline...
"...the Plantard family--lineal descendants of Dagobert II and the Merovingian
dynasty. In 1548, the 'Prieuré documents' state, Jean des Plantard had married
Marie de Saint-Clair--thus forging another link between his family and that of the
Saint-Clair/Gisors...
"...the specific phrase in Poussin's painting—'Et in Arcadia Ego'...appeared in
an earlier painting by Poussin, in which the tomb is surmounted by a skull and
does not constitute an edifice of its own, but is embedded in the side of a cliff. In
 does not constitute an edifice of its own, but is embedded in the side of a cliff. In
the foreground of this painting a bearded water deity reposes in an attitude of
brooding moroseness—the river god Alpheus, lord of the underground stream..." -
31:139-140;177,180-2

As an aside, the occult uses rivers and other fresh water sources as sacred sites for their vampire
rituals. Apposite to their sin, God will turn fresh water sites into blood during the Tribulation
period: And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of waters; and they
became blood... For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and you have given them
blood to drink; for they are worthy. - Rev. 16:4, 6

In William Taylor Coleridge's famous poem, Kubla Khan, the sacred river Alph descends to the
underworld. In a portion of this poem, reprinted below, the god of the underworld, Typhon, is
pictured as an erupting volcano, another sacred site of occultists. The imagery is phallic:

Kubla Khan

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan

A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea...

So twice five miles of fertile ground

With walls and towers were girdled round:
And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills,
Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree;
And here were forests ancient as the hills,
Enfolding sunny spots of greenery.

But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted

Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover!
A savage place! as holy and enchanted
As e'er beneath a waning moon was haunted
By woman wailing for her demon-lover!
And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething,
As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing,
A mighty fountain momently was forced:
Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst
Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail,
Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher's flail:
And 'mid these dancing rocks at once and ever
It flung up momently the sacred river... - 781

In Greek Mythology, Typhon was the volcano demon which spewed fiery rocks at the sky:
"TYPHOEUS was a monstrous immortal giant who was defeated and imprisoned beneath
Mount Aitna by Zeus. This volcano-daimon hurled red-hot rocks at the sky and...boiled forth
great storms of fire... Aitna (Mt Etna), where the rock is alight and kettles of fire boil up the
hot flare of Typhaon’s bed." –Dionysiaca 13.319 - 867

FLEUR DE LYS
The fleur de lys in the Plantard crest is a also phallic symbol. According to Margaret Starbird's
esoteric book, The Woman with the Alabaster Jar: Mary Magdalene and the Holy Grail, the
fleur de lys is a masculine symbol of the covenant of circumcision. Typical of occultists, for
whom the Bible is a closed book, verses are wrested to their own destruction.

"The royal emblem of the Merovingian king Clovis was the fleur-de-lis (the iris)...a
masculine symbol. In fact, it is a graphic image of the covenant of circumcision...
This three-pronged 'lily' is an ancient symbol for Israel: the capitals of the two
phallic pillars of Solomon's Temple, Jachin and Boaz, were carved with 'lily work'
(I Kings 7:22)." (936:62)

As a symbol of the Merovingian bloodline, the fleur de lys specifically represents the French
branch of this genealogical tree. Holy Blood, Holy Grail contains an illustration which explains
the connection of the fleur de lys with French Merovingian royalty.

"'Legend of the Fleur-de-lys.' A fifteenth century illumination of the legend of the

divine origins of the fleur-de-lys, symbol of the French royal line. Clovis I is
shown receiving a banner from his queen, Clotilde." (31:Fig.35)

Holy Blood, Holy Grail misrepresents the fleur de lys as a Jewish symbol: "Jewish coin of the
time of Antiochus VII, 138-29 B.C. The lily, stylized here and perhaps a precursor of the
French fleur-de-lys, was a symbol of Judea." (31:Fig.33) More likely the fleur de lys was an
Egyptian symbol minted by Antiochus VII, the king of Syria who married Cleopatra Thea,
Princess of Egypt. Antiochus VII defeated the Maccabees and besieged Jerusalem.

The fleur de lys also represents the Tree of Life which also descends to the netherworld (hell).
Notice in Coleridge's poem that the volcano-daimon Typhoeus is ejaculating all over the sky. In
French, the surname 'Plantard' means 'sapling', indicating a young plant which has its roots in
the underworld but aspires to reach the sky.

It seems the fleur de lys is frequently found in ancient Egyptian artifacts. In this next excerpt
from Ancient Egyptians and the Constellations can be seen a connection between Osiris—who
is identified with the Kabalistic Tree of Life—and the Plantard bloodline.

"In ancient Egyptian texts...The Tree of Life grew out of the Sacred Mound, it's
branches reaching out and supporting the star and planet studded sky, while it's
roots reached down into the watery abyss of the Netherworld. The trunk of the Tree
of Life represented the World Pillar or Axis Munde (literally 'Axis of the Mound')
around which the heavens appeared to revolve. The World Pillar was the centre of
the universe.
"The Ancient Egyptian symbol for 'plant' meaning 'Tree of Life' was three sacred
lotus lilies. They have tree stems curving to the left as though blown into Life by
the breath of Hu, the Celestial Sphinx. On top of each stem is the Lotus flower
which was used in Ancient Egypt to represent Life and Resurrection. It is from this
hieroglyph that the 'fleur de lis' which is frequently found in Ancient Egyptian Art
 hieroglyph that the 'fleur de lis' which is frequently found in Ancient Egyptian Art
traces its origin. The fleur de lis' represents the Tree of Life. The glyph which
denotes the sacred knowledge associated with Hu is also formed by the three stems
of the three sacred lotus lilies...
"Osiris, in his earliest Axis Munde form of a tamarisk tree trunk, was called
Djed. His later mummy wrappings were symbolic of his having been encased inside
a tree trunk. His mummy was therefore an Axis Munde... When Osiris was enclosed
in the trunk of a tamarisk tree, which was later cut down and used as a pillar in the
palace of the King of Byblos, he metaphorically became as one with the Tree of
Life. Osiris became the Axis Munde around which the heavens appear to revolve;
he became the World Pillar, the link between the terrestrial and celestial worlds.
He held the heavens in his outstretched arms, and he soaked up the word of God
from the waters of the Netherworld. In Ancient Egypt the Netherworld was called
the 'Netterworld' meaning the 'World of the gods'. The gods had their home among
the stars." - 903:6

ELEVEN BEES

The Great Mother Goddess of the Merovingian bloodline was Diana, who was a lesbian.

"[Diana] devoted herself to hunting, always accompanied by a band of young

women, who, like herself, abjured marriage. She is depicted with a quiver and
attended by dogs. her most famous temple was at Ephesus, and was one of the
seven wonders of the world." - 625:237

Kenneth Grant includes among Diana's sacred animals the bear, the bee and the crab, which all
point to the sign of Cancer. The bee is also a symbol of Set or Satan. There are eleven bees on
the arch of the Plantard crest; eleven, of course, is an occult number.

""In the Typhonian Tradition the Bear is the constellation of Ursa Major. The stars
must be aligned in a specific way in order for Set [Satan] to be properly
invoked. To the Priory of Sion (the secret, occult organization dedicated to
preserving the Merovingian Bloodline), the Bear was an animal of the Goddess
Diana. According to Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, the authors of The Templar
Revelation, ' ...the Merovingian kings, from their founder Merovee to Clovis (who
converted to Christianity in 496) were 'pagan kings of the cult of Diana'.' Picknet
and Prince got this information from the Dossiers Secrets of the Priory of Sion. The
bees, which are a recurring symbol of the Merovingians are, in the Typhonian
Tradition, represented frequently as the humming or buzzing sound that occurs
before the appearance of the Great Old Ones or 'beings' proper to this tradition.
Grant writes 'The bee, beetle, or crab, is therefore the link between the earliest
manifestation of the Typhonion current and its final phases.' Also; '217 is the key
number of [Crowley's] Book of the Law. 217 is also the number of DBVRH,
meaning 'a bee' which is the specific symbol of Sekhet, whose name means 'a bee.'
Sekhet is another aspect of the god Set. There are eleven bees because eleven is the
number of Magick and of the sephirah on the Tree of Life, called Daath, which is
the 'Gateway' to the backside of the Tree and to the Gods... As for the fleur de lys,
in the Typhonian Tradition it represents the 'kingly man' that Crowley extols and
the inheritor of the Grail Bloodline. In The Vision and the Voice, Crowley is
'conversing' with his Holy Guardian Angel Aiwas, who says: 'For I am not
appointed to guard thee, but we are of the blood royal, the guardians of the
Treasure-house of Wisdom.' The 'blood royal,' the Sangraal of the Holy Grail." -
 Treasure-house of Wisdom.' The 'blood royal,' the Sangraal of the Holy Grail." -
571

"Eleven. Symbolic of transition, excess and peril and of conflict and martyrdom.
According to Schneider, there is an infernal character about it: since it is in excess
of the number of perfection - ten..." 48:234

"There is a good reason for the emphasis on eleven and twenty-twos: these numbers
are both 'Master numbers' in the occult. They are particularly significant in
cabalistic studies." 242:203

THE BEARS

“The two bears denote the Mother (Typhon) and her son (Set) [Satan].” (Kenneth
Grant) - 571

“...the daimon Typhon...was equated with the Egyptian god Set...” - 867

"The stars must be aligned in a specific way in order for Set to be properly
invoked." Kenneth Grant, Grand Master, OTO

In Greek mythology, Callisto, the daughter of Lycaon, which means wolf, and sister of the
lesbian Greek goddess Artemis, the huntress, known as Diana to the Romans. The name
Artemis appears to be a derivative of 'Art' which means 'Bear, stone, or God' and
Artemis/Diana was known the bear-goddess. Callisto, who belonged to the Artemis' band of
lesbians, was raped by the king of Greek gods, Zeus; their offspring was Arcas. Variations of
the myth are that either Zeus/Jupiter or his jealous wife Hera/Juno, hurled Callisto into the
heavens where she became the Great Bear (Ursa Major) and Arcas soon followed as the Little
Bear (Ursa Minor). The region of Greece known as Arcadia, where the Merovingians settled, is
named after Arcas.

"The Sicambrians, ancestors of the Franks, were known as the 'people of the
Bear' for their worship of the bear-goddess Arduina [Diana/Artemis]. The word
'Arcadia' comes from Arkas, patron god of that area of Greece, the son of the
nymph Callisto, sister of the huntress Artemis. Callisto's constellation is also known
to many as Ursa Major, the Great Bear.
"The name 'Arthur' comes from the Celtic arth, related to 'Ursus' -- namely,
'bear.' In legend, the Merovingians were said to be descended from the Trojans, and
Homer reports that Troy was founded by a colony of Arcadians.
"The 'Prieure documents' claim that the Arcadians were descended from
Benjamites driven out of Palestine by their fellow Israelites for idolatry. 'Arcadia'
was also known as the source of the River Alphaeus, the 'underground stream'
which figures so prominently in Coleridge's poetry and in esoteric literature." ( 491)

According to the Mysteries of Rennes-Le-Chateau, the overthrow and extermination of the

Merovingian Dynasty was never fully accomplished. It seems that the son of Dagobert II, the
last Merovingian king who was assassinated, left a son:

"The Merovingians were 'sacred kings' who reigned but did not rule, leaving the
secular governing function to chancellors known as the Mayors of the Palace. It
was one of these Mayors, Pepin the Fat, who founded the dynasty that came to
supplant them--the Carolingians.
 "One of the great Merovingian kings, Clovis, struck a deal with the newly
nascent Roman church. He would subdue their enemies, the Arian Visigoths and
the pagan Lombards, in return for baptism into the faith and recognition of his right
to rule a new Roman empire as 'Novus Constantinus.'
"Yet one of his descendants, Dagobert II, was murdered by a lance pierced
through his eye (or poison poured in the ear -- accounts vary) at the orders of
Pepin. The church endorsed the assassination, flatly betrayed its pact with Clovis,
and in turn recognized the family of usurpers as legitimate, culminating with the
crowning of Charlemagne as Holy Roman Emperor. It was thought that the
Merovingian lineage was extinguished; in any case it was excised from the history
books.
"But there is some evidence that Dagobert's son, Siegebert IV, survived and that
a Merovingian principality continued to be ruled in Septimania by Guillem de
Gellone, a descendant--and ancestor--of Godfroi de Bouillon.
"If the Prieure documents are to be believed, the Merovingian lineage persists to
this day, largely due to efforts to preserve it through intermarriage.
"The significance of such alliances is the key." - 491

Dagobert II's son, Sigisbert IV, was known as the 'Plant-Ard' or Sapling, an allusion to his
demonically-rooted pedigree. Dagobert's marriage to "Magdala" at Rennes-le-Chateau in South
France, was said to unite the divine 'beast of the sea' [Satan] with the Holy Family -- Jesus,
Mary Magdalene and their 'divine' offspring. The Apocalyptic Secret of Rennes-le-Chateau
explains this marriage as the union of the two 'divine' bloodlines:

"...the marriage of Dagobert II and Giselle of Razes combined the two

bloodlines, that of the Holy Family and that of a pagan divine beast, the Quinotaur.
The connection between the Merovingians and the Holy Family seems to have been
hind-shadowed by this union of the bloodlines, when indeed they would seem from
contemporary sources to be a kind of Pendragon lineage, such as Vortigern and
Arthur in Britain. In Sigisbert IV, it appears the bloodlines of the divine king and
the world teacher combined.
"Given the events of his childhood, it is natural that Sigsbert, the new Count of
Rhedae, kept a low profile. The only solid evidence of his existence is a charter for
a monastery signed in 718 by 'Sigebert, Comte de Rhedae, and his wife Magdala'."
- 873 (Book 1, Chap. 9)

It will come as a surprise to many that the term 'Magdala' refers, not to Mary Magdalene, but to
the 'Magdalenian Era' which was the last of the Paleolithic Age and noted for its cave paintings,
particularly in North Spain and the Southwest of France. The bear god was worshipped in this
area of France which later became the Languedoc, the legendary abode of Mary Magdalene.

“Archeaologists have found carvings and cave paintings of Bears at Drachenloch

Caves, in Switzerland. Neanderthal man revered the Bear back as far as 70.000
years ago. In the Lascaux caves, in France, we find bear art back to 17,000 B.C. A
sixth-century altar dedicated to the bear god, Aedeche, is found in the French town
of St. Pé d'Ardet--the Vallée de l'Ourse -- not far from Lourdes. Many ancient
cultures wore Bear skins with the head still attached to try to become Bear. Joseph
Campbell claims that Bear Cults and Clans are older than shamanism.” (978)

'Magdala', in all probability was derived from the city 'Migdol' near Alexandria, Egypt, where
the Queen of Heaven was worshipped as Isis.
 "There is no necessity to endeavor to crowbar [Mary Magdalene] into a Galilean
setting, for there are other intriguing alternatives for her place of origin: although
there was no ‘Magdala’ in Judea in her day, there was a Magdolum in Egypt - just
across the border - which was probably the Migdol mentioned in Ezekiel. There
was a large and flourishing Jewish community in Egypt at that time, which was
particularly centered on the great sea port of Alexandria, a seething cosmopolitan
melting pot of many races, nationalities and religions and perhaps where the Holy
Family had fled to escape the depredations of Herod’s men." - 843

God had a few words to say through the prophet Jeremiah to the disobedient Jews who
worshipped the Queen of Heaven at Migdol:

The word that came to Jeremiah concerning all the Jews which dwell in the land
of Egypt, which dwell at Migdol, and at Tahpanhes, and at Noph, and in the
country of Pathros, saying, Thus saith the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel; Ye
have seen all the evil that I have brought upon Jerusalem, and upon all the cities of
Judah; and, behold, this day they are a desolation, and no man dwelleth therein,
Because of their wickedness which they have committed to provoke me to anger, in
that they went to burn incense, and to serve other gods, whom they knew not,
neither they, ye, nor your fathers...
Then all the men which knew that their wives had burned incense unto other
gods, and all the women that stood by, a great multitude, even all the people that
dwelt in the land of Egypt, in Pathros, answered Jeremiah, saying, As for the word
that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto
thee. But we will certainly do whatsoever thing goeth forth out of our own mouth,
to burn incense unto the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto her,
as we have done, we, and our fathers, our kings, and our princes, in the cities of
Judah, and in the streets of Jerusalem: for then had we plenty of victuals, and were
well, and saw no evil. But since we left off to burn incense to the queen of heaven,
and to pour out drink offerings unto her, we have wanted all things, and have been
consumed by the sword and by the famine. And when we burned incense to the
queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes
to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men? - Jer. 44:1-
3,15-19

So Magdala, the wife of Sigisbert IV, was no offspring of Mary Magdalene; rather her name
derived from the Magdalenian Era when the bear god was the divinity of choice in South
France. No wonder the offspring of Sigisbert IV and Magdala were BEARS!

"...Dagobert II climbed on the throne but he was assassinated in 679 as well as

his son Sigebert IV according to the official history...
"The Merovingian dynasty continued formally with Thierry IV and Childéric III
who was removed in 751 and this was the end of the dynasty. According to the
parchment found by Saunière, and this could be true according to some historians,
Sigebert IV escaped and arrived in the Razes on the 17 of January 681 where he
took refuge with his grand father. Dagobert II had as a second wife Gisèle, the
daughter of Béra II the count of Razès. The Merovingian line included, after
Sigebert IV (676-758) also known as the 'Plant-Ard' - from whom Mr Plantard
took his name!-: Sigebert V (695-768), Bera III (715-771), Guillemon, Bera IV
(755-836), Bera V (794-860), Hildéric I and finally Sigebert VI known as 'Ursus'.
From this lineage came the Blanchefort family who gave three centuries later a
 Templar Grand Master, Bertrand de Blanchefort... According to the parchment
found by Saunière the lineage did not stop with Sigebert VI but continued up to this
date although nobody claimed the French throne." - 856

According to Webster's Dictionary (1913), BERA is the Anglo-Saxon word for BEAR, which
possibly derives from the Latin word fera meaning 'wild beast', 'water beast' and 'sea bear'.

Bear \Bear\, n. [OE. bere, AS. bera; akin to D. beer, OHG. bero, pero, G. b["a]r,
Icel. & Sw. bj["o]rn, and possibly to L. fera wild beast, Gr. ? beast, Skr. bhalla
bear.]

1. (Zo["o]l.) Any species of the genus Ursus, and of the closely allied genera.
Bears are plantigrade Carnivora, but they live largely on fruit and insects. Note:
The European brown bear ({U. arctos}), the white polar bear ({U. maritimus}), the
grizzly bear ({U.horribilis}), the American black bear, and its variety the cinnamon
bear ({U. Americanus}), the Syrian bear ({Ursus Syriacus}), and the sloth bear,
are among the notable species.
2. (Zo["o]l.) An animal which has some resemblance to a bear in form or habits,
but no real affinity; as, the woolly bear; ant bear; water bear; sea bear.
3. (Astron.) One of two constellations in the northern hemisphere, called
respectively the {Great Bear} and the {Lesser Bear}, or {Ursa Major} and {Ursa
Minor}.
4. Metaphorically: A brutal, coarse, or morose person...- 868

The term, plantigrade, found in definition #1, describes the two rampant bears in the Plantard
family crest, and also the description of the first beast of Revelation13:

Plantigrade \Plan"ti*grade\, n. (Zo["o]l.)

A plantigrade animal, or one that walks or steps on the sole of the foot, as
man, and the bears.
Plantigrade \Plan"ti*grade\, a. [L. planta sole of the foot + gradi to walk:
cf. F. plantigrade.] (Zo["o]l.) - 868

And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a bear, - Rev. 13:2

Pertaining to definition #4, according to Holy Blood, Holy Grail, Alpheus, the river god and
lord of the underground stream is a 'bearded water deity [who] reposes in an attitude of
brooding moroseness'. - 31:180-2

In the book of Genesis, the king of Sodom was named Bera, which means 'son of evil'. Bera
offered goods to Abraham which the latter wisely refused.

And it came to pass in the days of Amraphel king of Shinar, Arioch king of
Ellasar, Chedorlaomer king of Elam, and Tidal king of nations; That these made
war with Bera king of Sodom, and with Birsha king of Gomorrah, Shinab king of
Admah, and Shemeber king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela, which is Zoar...
And there went out the king of Sodom, and the king of Gomorrah, and the king
of Admah, and the king of Zeboiim, and the king of Bela (the same is Zoar;) and
they joined battle with them in the vale of Siddim;...
And the vale of Siddim was full of slimepits; and the kings of Sodom and
Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain. And
 Gomorrah fled, and fell there; and they that remained fled to the mountain. And
they took all the goods of Sodom and Gomorrah, and all their victuals, and went
their way. And they took Lot, Abram's brother's son, who dwelt in Sodom, and his
goods, and departed.
And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt
in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and
these were confederate with Abram. And when Abram heard that his brother was
taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred
and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan. And he divided himself against them, he
and his servants, by night, and smote them, and pursued them unto Hobah, which is
on the left hand of Damascus. And he brought back all the goods, and also brought
again his brother Lot, and his goods, and the women also, and the people...
And the king of Sodom said unto Abram, Give me the persons, and take the
goods to thyself. And Abram said to the king of Sodom, I have lift up mine hand
unto the LORD, the most high God, the possessor of heaven and earth, That I will
not take from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that
is thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich: - Genesis 14

Recalling that Ursa Major means Great Bear, it is noteworthy that the Prieuré de Sion was
founded by one Prince Ursus.

"The 'Prieuré documents' imply that...an abbey existed by 1100 and housed an
order of the...name [Ordre de Sion] which may have been formed earlier...
"It is known that in 1070, twenty-nine years before the First Crusade, a specific
band of monks from Calabria in southern Italy arrived in the vicinity of the
Ardennes Forrest, part of Godfroi de Bouillon's domains. According to Gérard de
Sède this band of monks was led by an individual called Ursus--a name the
'Prieuré documents' consistently associate with the Merovingian bloodline... [A]t
Orval, not far from Stenay, where Dagobert II had been assassinated some five
hundred years earlier...an abbey was established to house the monks... By 1108 they
had mysteriously disappeared... Orval, by 1131, had become one of the fiefs owned
by Saint Bernard.
"Before their departure from Orval, however, the Calabrian monks may have
left a crucial mark on Western history. According to Gérard de Sède, at least, they
included the man subsequently known as Peter the Hermit. If this is so, it would be
extremely significant, for Peter the Hermit is often believed to have been Godfroi
de Bouillon's personal tutor... In 1095, along with Pope Urban II, Peter made
himself known throughout Christendom by charismatically preaching the need for a
crusade--a holy war that would reclaim Christ's sepulchre and the Holy Land from
the Muslim infidel. Today, Peter the Hermit is regarded as one of the chief
instigators of the 'Crusades.'
"...mysterious Abbey of Orval...[is] where our research suggested the Prieuré de
Sion may have had its inception." - 31:113,170

“According to the Prieure's own documents, its history is long and convoluted. Its
earliest roots are in some sort of Hermetic or Gnostic society led by a man named
Ormus. This individual is said to have reconciled paganism and Christianity. The
story of Sion only comes into focus in the Middle Ages. In 1070, a group of
monks from Calabria, Italy, led by one Prince Ursus, founded the Abbey of
Orval in France near Stenay, in the Ardennes. These monks are said to have
formed the basis for the Order de Sion, into which they were 'folded' in 1099 by
Godfroi de Bouillion.” - 922

The constellations of Great Bear and Leo the Lion governed Ancient Egypt under the Pharaonic
dynasties, which were also from this demonic bloodline. In the Great Mayan Cycle, which
spans all twelve signs of the Zodiac, this was known as the Age of Taurus.

"The sign of Taurus is taken as representing the initiating impulse that starts the
process of illumination. Taurus the Bull is the great Bestower of Light, who
fertilises the minds of mankind with seeds of light...
"It should be noticed...that the so-called 'Unification of the Two Lands' in
Ancient Egypt, which marked the start of the first cycle of pharoanic dynasties,
began with the commencement of the astronomical Age of Taurus, c. 3,240 BC...
The symbol of the bull was of particular importance for Egypt throughout its
history...
"...At the time that the pharaonic civilisation of Ancient Egypt was supposed to
have begun, c. 3.240 BC, the Spring Equinoctial sun arose in the middle of the
zodiacal sign of Taurus, and the May Day festival sun was on the cusp of the signs
of Cancer and Gemini...
"The first and main cycle of the Egyptian pharaonic civilisation...spanned...more
than just the Taurean Age. These astronomical ages were recognised by the
Egyptians, and their civilisation adapted accordingly, but the cycle of their
civilisation was not governed primarily by such ages. There was something even
more significant in the heavens which governed that particular cycle of the
Egyptian civilisation - the association of two great constellations that have
special significance to each other, one near the north pole and the other in the
zodiac. These two constellations, which determined the whole length and course of
the first cycle of Egyptian pharaonic civilisation, were Ursa Major, the Great Bear,
and Leo, the Lion. ...Leo is also a symbol of the heart, and Ursa Major was
considered by the Egyptians to be the magical 'thigh' (or right foreleg) of Taurus,
the latter symbolising the illumined mind and referred to as the 'Eye' of Horus.
With this 'thigh of the Eye of Horus' Ptah (the Creator god signifying the Voice of
God) 'opened' the mouths of divine entities and the souls of the dead." - 889:27

And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as
the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. - Rev. 13:2

Since New Agers are trying to replicate the ancient Egyptian culture which was based on the
pre-Flood civilization of Atlantis, it is ominous that Ursa Major in Cancer and Leo, the Lion are
the final signs of the Biblical zodiac promoted by Kennedy et al and represent the greater
sheepfold of the Christ who will come to destroy his enemies.

"The last four signs make the most sense if they stand for the final consummation of
all things. This section would then foretell the coming judgments on the earth and
the glorious outcome of Christ's reign.

“Taurus, the Bull, is an angry, rushing animal, which would be a meaningful

symbol of God delivering His wrath during the Tribulation. The Decans are Orion,
Eridanus, and Auriga. Orion is the warrior-prince with a sword on his side and his
foot on the hare or serpent. Eridanus, the torturous River, is the River of Judgment
belonging to Orion. Auriga, the Shepherd, is a picture of a powerful shepherd-king
who tenderly holds a she-goat and two little goats in his left arm. This could be a
 who tenderly holds a she-goat and two little goats in his left arm. This could be a
picture of The Lord's comfort of the persecuted believers of this coming period of
judgment.
“Gemini, The Twins, are two human figures seated together in loving closeness.
This could portray the Marriage of the Lamb. (See Marriage Supper of the Lamb.)
The Decans are Lepus, Canis Major, and Canis Minor. Lepus is the mad hare, the
enemy under Orion's feet. Canis Major, Sirius, the Great Dog could prefigure the
Prince coming in His glory. Then Canis Minor, Procyon, The Second Dog, would
be his princely following.
“Cancer the Crab is the figure of a crab, in the act of taking and holding on
with its pincers. This could be a picture of the victorious King of Kings when He
returns, and the Decans, Ursa Minor, the Lesser Bear, Ursa Major the Greater
Bear, and Argo, could picture His privileged followers. Ursa Minor could also
mean the lesser sheepfold, and stand for the first-born who will be rulers, and Ursa
Major could be the greater sheepfold, the ones born later. Argo, the Ship, brings the
weary travelers home from their toils and travels.
“Leo, the Lion might easily picture Christ in His final victory over the Devil.
All three of the Decans point to the destruction of the enemy, pictured as a serpent.
Hydra, the fleeing Serpent, is about to be pounced upon by the lion. Crater, the
Bowl of Wrath, is placed on the serpent. And Corvus, the Raven, the bird of doom,
is also on the serpent, devouring his carcass." (Prophecy Central, Gospel in the
Stars promo) - 850

Peter Dawkins is a recognized authority on the Baconian-Rosicrucian philosophies and Ancient

Wisdom teachings. He is the author of the Francis Bacon Research Trust Journal Series, Studies
in Ancient Wisdom, whose purpose is "to give insight into the complete initiatory path that all
the great Religions or Wisdom Traditions have taught from time immemorial, as being the
Way, the Truth and the Life." (889:12) Volume 5 of Dawkins' series, Arcadia: The Ancient
Egyptian Mysteries, reveals to the 'initiated' the esoteric meaning of the 'Great Bear' and 'Little
Bear'. Dawkins promotes the same twaddle as Bullinger and Kennedy about the Bear really
being a Sheepfold; however, because he is writing to esotericists, Dawkins discloses its deeper
significance—that the Sheepfold is the "heavenly place of enlightenment" to which the initiates
of mankind (sheep) are led, presumably by the adepts and masters who are their "shepherds".

"Associated in esoteric knowledge with this role of high kingship is the symbol of
the North Pole Star - the 'crown of the world - and the circumpolar constellations.
Of these, the Lesser and the Greater Bear are the most important: the former
providing the present North Pole Star. The 'Bear' is a veil to the real name,
which means 'Dove', or 'Sheepfold', or 'Chariot'. As the Chariot, it is Arthur's
vehicle of manifestation, as also the fiery chariot on which Elijah ascended to
heaven. Hence Arthur is known as 'the Bear'. As the Sheepfold, it is the heavenly
place of peace and enlightenment that Jesus spoke of, to which the 'sheep' (i.e.
initiates) of mankind are led, and from which the 'shepherds' (i.e. the adepts and
masters) come from. As the Dove, it is known as the vehicle of the Holy Spirit,
by means of which that Spirit descends to the earth and governs its kingdom. It is
signified by the royal crown of a High King (i.e. a crown with arches) - a halo of
light which descends upon a truly worthy and anointed (i.e. illuminated) soul,
bestowing full knowledge of Truth. The Great Bear is known as the mother of the
Little Bear, which is her son. The Rampant Bear and Ragged Staff
emblem...depicts just this - the Bear constellation tied to the Pole of the earth's axis,
and dancing around it." - 889:80
Dawkins has already informed the reader in Volume 4 of his series, The Great Vision: The Judaic-
Christian Mysteries, as to the identity of the shepherds who left the 'heavenly place of
enlightenment' to enable the human race to evolve: the Christ Brotherhood of Sirius.

"...Jesus of Nazareth, is historically one of those truly great souls that we call
Christs, Sons of God... It is said that his soul achieved perfection in worlds other than
our own, and that he is a Great Initiate of the star system called Sirius, the evolution
of which is far beyond our own. From the great Christ Brotherhood of Sirius, he came
with two others on a special mission to our solar system, entering it via the Sun, its
heart, and then incarnating into the coarse environment of our planetary sphere via the
finer environment of our twin planet, Venus. With these three Sirian Initiates came
their circles of disciples, 'picked up' en route; souls associated with both the Sun and
Venus, in which spheres they had achieved certain levels of initiation, but who needed
or chose to undertake such a mission as this one to the planet Earth as part of their
next step in initiation...
"The mission of the Christ Jesus to our planet is one of overseeing, inspiring,
guiding and teaching the younger souls of Earth's humanity throughout their whole
conscious human evolution on this planet, and helping to provide an evolutionary
stimulus at certain required times. By incarnating into the substance and evolutionary
chain of events of this planet, this great Teacher and his company of Sages are able to
experience and understand the peculiarities of our human and planetary evolution, its
pains and joys, and by participating in it to truly love and teach others by example and
by close ties of friendship. As well as being examples of the perfect life, they act as
yeast in the dough of humanity. Such a mission, in which spheres of beauty, harmony
and illuminated peace are deliberately left in order to live in and experience the
ugliness, inharmony and human injustice of our less evolved world, constitutes a
conscious, self-sacrifice in the Name of Love... The sacrifice of the Venusian souls
who came with Jesus is great, but not as great as the Sun-souls who accompanied
Jesus, and theirs is not nearly as great as that of the Sirian Souls...
"The Ancient Wisdom Traditions teach us that these mighty souls came to our
planet approximately 18 million years ago, living in aetheric bodies and inhabiting the
land subsequently known as Hyperborea ('the Land beyond the North Wind)...
Establishing this area as their principle home and temple, they then moved across the
world to other key areas in order to act as guides and teachers to the young races of
humanity. Young humanity was, at the time of this great incarnation of 'God-men' and
'Sun-men', existing and evolving in areas of the world known as Mu, the Motherland."
- 902:38-9

The Great Bear and Little Bear, located in the sign of Cancer, immediately precede the last sign of
the so-called 'Biblical Zodiac', Leo, the Lion, which, we are told, presages Christ in His final
victory over the Devil. Nowhere in Scripture is the sheepfold of Jesus Christ compared to a bear;
moreover, as sheep, they are warned about the lion: "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary
the devil, a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." (I Pet. 5:8) Rather than
shepherds and sheepfolds of Jesus Christ, the bear and lion of the Zodiac appear to be the
Antichrist and his false religious system.

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a BEAR, and his mouth as the mouth of a LION: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it
were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the
beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able
to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things
and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months. -
Rev. 13:1-5

Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of
the LORD is darkness, and not light. As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met
him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him. -
Amos 5:19-20

THE THREE BEARS

ARTHUR'S CHARIOT

The Hermetic axiom "as above, so below" is the supreme principle governing the belief system
and practices of the occult. Since man is a microcosm of the macrocosmos, whatever occurs in
the heavens is regarded as the blueprint of the gods for man's activity on earth. Occultists strive
to conform their pagan rituals, leading personages, sacred sites, occult objects and calendar of
events to the heavenly blueprint as interpreted by their adepts and masters. These deluded souls
believe that scrupulous attention to the Hermetic axiom, "as above, so below," will bring about
the global transformation which Satan has promised them.

“This phrase comes from the beginning of 'The Emerald Tablet' and embraces
the entire system of traditional and modern magick which was inscribed upon the
tablet in cryptic wording by Hermes Trismegistus... The significance of this phrase
is that it is believed to hold the key to all mysteries. All systems of magick are
claimed to function by this formula. 'That which is above is the same as that which
is below - macrocosmos is the same as microcosmos. The Universe is the same as
God, God is the same as man, man is the same as the cell, the cell is the same as
the atom, the atom is the same as … and so on, ad infinitum.'
“This message theorises that man is the counterpart of God on Earth; as God is
man's counterpart in heaven. Therefore, it is a statement of an ancient belief that
man's actions on Earth parallel the actions of God in heaven. This pivots on the
belief that 'all things have their birth from this one thing by adaptation'...
 “The purpose of all rituals in ceremonial magick is to unite the microcosm with
the macrocosm to join God, or Gods when invoked, with the human consciousness.
When such a supreme union is achieved the subject and object becomes one. This
is because the magickian feels that he is consciously in touch with all elements of
the Universe, therefore, he or she can control them. It may be said, the magickian
feels connected with the Universe. This feeling intensifies the more the magickian
successfully practices his or her skills. Whenever he experiences a failure, he or she
knows that the ritual was not performed correctly.” (976)

Astrology is the Hermetic science of religiously modeling phenomena on the earth below to a
pattern that exists in the heavens above. This accounts for the mythology of ancient pagan
belief systems which depict an epic narrative of the ancient gods of Atlantis—the antediluvian
civilization which God judged in Genesis 7—whose home was believed by pagan cultures to be
in the stars. The pictures found today in the zodiac were not developed by the Greeks, but were
in place perhaps as early as 4000 B.C. predating even the civilizations of Sumeria. False
teachers such as D. James Kennedy, E.W. Bullinger and Joseph Seiss have suggested that there
is a Biblical message in the stars, viz., that the zodiac is a pictorial story of God's plan of
salvation on earth. Yet Kennedy et al blow their cover when they identify the key to
understanding the celestial zodiac as found in ancient depictions of the Great Sphinx of Egypt.

But he shall not...cause the people to return to Egypt...forasmuch as the LORD hath
said unto you, Ye shall henceforth return no more that way. Deut. 17:16

Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in
chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but
they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the LORD! Isaiah 31:1

The most important of the stellar constellations is Ursa Major, the Great Bear. From time
immemorial it seems that star worshippers revered the bear as a god, probably applying the
Hermetic axiom in their religious life. As previously mentioned, the Magdalenian Era was noted
for its cave paintings, particularly in North Spain and the Southwest of France. The bear god
was worshipped in this area of France which later became the Languedoc, the legendary abode
of Mary Magdalene.

“Archeaologists have found carvings and cave paintings of Bears at Drachenloch

Caves, in Switzerland. Neanderthal man revered the Bear back as far as 70.000
years ago. In the Lascaux caves, in France, we find bear art back to 17,000 B.C. A
sixth-century altar dedicated to the bear god, Aedeche, is found in the French town
of St. Pé d'Ardet—the Vallée de l'Ourse—not far from Lourdes. Many ancient
cultures wore Bear skins with the head still attached to try to become Bear. Joseph
Campbell claims that Bear Cults and Clans are older than shamanism.” (978)

To the present day, the area of Southwest France which borders Spain and Andorra has
preserved its prehistoric caves, medieval castles and cities, and even displays the bear as its
emblem.

"...River Ariège which is in the heart of the Pyrénées close to the border with Spain
and Andorra and it has breathtaking scenery, prehistoric caves, medieval castles.
The emblem of the region is the bear." (981)

King Arthur of the Celtic legend—who in real life was Clovis I, the first Frankish
monarch—was the earthly representation of the Great Bear constellation. Since Arthur means
monarch—was the earthly representation of the Great Bear constellation. Since Arthur means
bear, this legend appears to have derived from the ancient worship of the bear:

“The Celts had two goddesses that took the form of the Bear: Andarta ('powerful
bear') and Artio. In other cultures there are the bear god Artaois, Ardeche, or Arthe.
Their names are both from 'Art' which means 'Bear, stone, or God.' There are also
many place names called Artos or Arth. Images of the god Artio have been found
in Berne (Bear City), Switzerland, which has its 'den of bears' which was used by
the Bear cultists. King Arthur (a form of Artios or Artiaus, a great god of antiquity)
is associated with Bear in that his name comes from the constellation of the Great
Bear, which was also known as 'Arthur's Wain/Arthur's Plow.' Midwinter is the
time of Alban Arthuan/The Light of Arthur and the Winter's Soltice. The Winter's
Soltice is the longest night of the year, and people called upon the constellation of
the Great Bear to light their way in the darkness. Soltices and Equinoxs were
performed at Stonehenge. The Bear is also thought to be ruled by the planet Mars.
Ancient traditions help us discover our ancestral roots.” 979

Cecil Rhodes derived his concept of the Round Table from the Celtic legend of King Arthur and
his Knights of the Round Table. In particular, Rhodes was inspired by Alfred Lord Tennyson's
poem Morte d'Arthur which is a poetic account of King Arthur's death, a portion of which is
reprinted below.

I perish by this people which I made, -

Tho' Merlin sware that I should come again
To rule once more - but let what will be, be,
I am so deeply smitten thro' the helm
That without help I cannot last till morn...

Then loudly cried the bold Sir Bedivere,

"Ah! my Lord Arthur, whither shall I go?
Where shall I hide my forehead and my eyes?
For now I see the true old times are dead,
When every morning brought a noble chance,
And every chance brought out a noble knight.
Such times have been not since the light that led
The holy Elders with the gift of myrrh.
But now the whole Round Table is dissolved
Which was an image of the mighty world..."

And slowly answer'd Arthur from the barge:

"The old order changeth, yielding place to new,
And God fulfils Himself in many ways...

But now farewell. I am going a long way . . .

Where I will heal me of my grievous wound."

According to legend, Arthur was borne to the heavens on a celestial barge, alternately called
Arthur's Chariot and Arthur's Wain (Wagon). King Arthur is the 'once and future king': “Tho'
Merlin sware that I should come again, To rule once more...”

"In his great 15th century epic Morte D'Arthur, Thomas Malory tells a different
legend of Arthur's epitaph. Arthur's life in Morte D'Arthur ends at Glastonbury; his
 legend of Arthur's epitaph. Arthur's life in Morte D'Arthur ends at Glastonbury; his
burial is witnessed by Sir Bedevere and a hermit 'that sometime was bishop of
Canterbury'. 'Yet some men say in many parts of England that King Arthur is not
dead, but had by the will of Our Lord Jesu into another place; and men say that he
shall come again, and he shall win the Holy Cross. Yet I will not say that it shall be
so; but rather I would say, here in this world he changed his life. But many men
say that there is written upon the tomb this: HIC IACET ARTHURUS, REX
QUONDAM REXQUE FUTURUS - 'Here lies Arthur, the once and future king'." -
831

More recently, in 1958, a book titled Once and Future King was written by T.H. White to
revive Arthurian lore in anticipation that the ancient king would one day return. Arthur's barque
sailed to the location of the Great Bear constellation, whence he shall return in the person of the
Antichrist.

“'King Arthur, the renowned hero of the Mabinogion, typified the Great Bear; as
his name—Arth, bear, and Uthyr, wonderful—implies in the Welsh language; and
the constellation, visibly describing a circle in the North Polar regions of the sky,
may possibly have been the true origin of the Son of Pendragon's famous Round
Table, the earliest institution of a military order of knighthood.' Whatever may be
the fact in this speculation, we know that the early English placed King Arthur's
home here and that the people of Great Britain long called it Arthur's Chariot or
Wain...” (William Henry Smyth, Speculum Hartwellianum) - 927:425

Arthur's son, Modred, was the Guardian of the Grail, the offspring of Arthur's 'sacred marriage'
rite with his half-sister, Morgaine. Arthur, whose name means bear, is believed to be sleeping
as the bears who hibernate during winter.

“The legend of Arthur sleeping in an underground cave, waiting for his day of
awakening, is like the life of a Bear that hibernates in the winter in a sort of
suspended animation, as its bodily temperature falls to conserve calories.” 979

It is recently reported that a super-volcano is expected to erupt in Yellowstone National Park, a

location which is known for its population of bears. Ironically, in one news report the super-
volcano is likened to a hibernating bear.

“...the Yellowstone Super-Volcano was 20,000 years past due. Let us review that
story:

“NEWS BRIEF: 'Super Volcanoes: Satellites Eye Deadly Hot Spots', Space.com,
07 August 2001

“... no one can say if or when it might become dangerously active. If a volcano is
like a hibernating bear, however, then it may well be volcanic springtime in
Yellowstone. Super explosions, about 1,000 times more material erupted than Mt.
St. Helens in 1980, happen about every 600,000 years at Yellowstone,' Wicks says.
'And it's been about 620,000 years since the last super explosive eruption there.”

We have documented in our report, Heeding Bible Prophecy, that the U.S. military is capable of
awakening volcanoes with electromagnetic weaponry. Volcanoes are believed to be portals to
the lost continents of Lemuria and Atlantis. Coleridge portrayed the god Typhon as a volcano
erupting from Hell. Can it be that the planned awaking of the super-volcano in Yellowstone
 erupting from Hell. Can it be that the planned awaking of the super-volcano in Yellowstone
National Park will announce the coming of Arthur, the “Once and Future King,” returning to
the earth in the person of the Antichrist?

WILLIAM COOPER & THE 3 BEARS

A previous section of this report, Antichrist in Virgo, presented compelling evidence that the
father of William Cooper is none other than the late Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair, former
Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion. Since the intelligence agencies specialize in the creation
of false identities for their spies, and Cooper served for many years as an agent of the U.S.
Office of Naval Intelligence, it is entirely plausible that that the biographical material presented
in by William Cooper in his book, Behold a Pale Horse, is a bogus profile. There are, however,
in Cooper's book many subtle clues which would communicate the author's true identity to the
“initiated”— those who are well-versed in the symbolic language of the occult and are looking
for the man who will lead mankind in its final stand against Jesus Christ.

The Foreword to William Cooper's book, Behold a Pale Horse, cleverly conveys vital
information pertaining to the astrological profile of the Antichrist and False Prophet—that of the
of the bear god. Rosicrucian symbolism represents Jehovah as a bear. According to Peter
Dawkins esoteric book, Arcadia: The Ancient Egyptian Mysteries, “Ursa Major and Ursa Minor
are the celestial signs, or symbols, of I.O.A.” [The latter abbreviation is Jehovah sans vowels.]
The word bear, as shown in Antichrist in Cancer, is an Anglo-Saxon derivative from the Latin
word fera meaning wild beast, water beast and sea bear. Also, “a plantigrade animal [is] one
that walks or steps on the sole of the foot, as man, and the bears.” (Webster's Dictionary, 1913)

In the Holy Bible, God has also given His people clues as to the identity of the Beast that will
rise up as the Antichrist.

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a BEAST rise up out of the sea,
having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his
heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard,
and his feet were as the feet of a BEAR, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and
the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. - Revelation 13:1

We turn now to William Cooper's book, Behold a Pale Horse, for some amazing clues as to
Cooper's identity. The following are photos and excerpts found in the Foreword:

“My paternal grandfather's family...were on the front line during the Oklahoma land
rush and succeeded in staking out 320 acres on BIG BEAR CREEK near what
would eventually become Enid.” (p.8)

“Connie...has grown to be so much a part of me that even now I sometimes get a

feeling to look behind me to see if that little girl is still there. I feel a great loss
when I see that it's only SUGARBEAR, my faithful dog; but then, I love him too,
so I can't complain.” (p.13)

“Annie and POOH (Dorothy's nickname) are the lights in my life. Annie and I
were married on July 4, 1989. Pooh was born on May 30, 1990... POOH is my
always and forever friend.” (p. 31)

COOPER GIVING POOH A "BEAR HUG"

MAMA BEAR & PAPA BEAR
MAMA BEAR

According to William Cooper, his mother's name was “Dovie” and her family came to the
United States from Scotland, a major Merovingian stronghold:

“My mother's family came from Scotland and settled in North Carolina.... I never
knew much about my mother's family... My mother was one of those chosen to live
in a children's home...
“My mother is a real Southern lady. They used to call her kind a Southern belle.
She is one of the last of a dying breed. DOVIE Nell (Woodside) Cooper is the type
of woman that men like to dream about when they're lonely. She is the kindest,
gentlest, woman that I have ever known.” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse,
p.8,11)
 p.8,11)

The name “Dovie” has great esoteric significance. The messiah of the Rosicrucians is not Jesus
Christ but St. John, whose name is considered synonymous with Jehovah. According to Peter
Dawkins, the shortened form of Jehovah (I.O.A.) also means “Dove”! Furthermore, the Hebrew
word for Dove (Dôveh) “is directly associated with Dohver, a 'sheepfold', and with Dôhv, a
'bear'” and “I.O.A. is represented by all these symbols—eagle, dove, sheepfold, bear.”! On top
of all these coincidences, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor are the celestial signs of I.O.A. or
Jehovah (aka Dove):

“[Rosicrucian] emblems depict Jehovah as an eagle with protective wings

outstretched: cryptically alluding to St. John (whose symbol is an eagle), whose
name is derived from the same sacred vowels—I.O.A.—as JIHOVAH.
“I.O.A., as in Iona, also means 'DOVE' - the Holy Ghost that brings divine Light
into the world of material manifestation. Furthermore, as the symbol of the Dove is
derived from the Hebraic word Dôveh, meaning rest, strength, security,
plenteousness, peace' (which is the description of I.O.A.), and as this word is
directly associated with Dohver, a 'sheepfold', and with Dôhv, a 'bear', I.O.A. is
represented by all these symbols—eagle, dove, sheepfold, bear. Ursa Major and
Ursa Minor are the celestial signs, or symbols, of I.O.A.; thus the eagle in the
emblems, or Jehovah in the motto, can be translated as the Great or Little Bear,
referring again to Arcadia and the Arcadians, to the Ancient British race...” (Peter
Dawkins, Arcadia: The Ancient Egyptian Mysteries, 889:122 )

“My ancestors came from England, Scotland and Ireland.” (William Cooper,
Behold a Pale Horse, p.7)

Peter Dawkins of the Francis Bacon Research Trust, leads "Bull and Europa Pilgrimages: A
coordinated series of geomantic pilgrimages within the landscape of Europe." Dawkins'
interpretation of Europa and the Bull (Zeus/Jupiter) transposes the traditional interpretation so
that Europa stands for Great Britain and the Bull is Europe. From this premise, Dawkins
extrapolates that the Bull (Europe) represents the Grail King and Europa (Britain) represents the
Grail Queen:

"Europe takes its name from the myth of Europa and the Bull. Whereas the
islands of Britain, Ireland and Scotland together constitute the landscape of Europa,
the mainland of Europe forms the landscape of the Bull.
"The Bull is the symbolic incarnatory form or vehicle of Jupiter, the divine
Father of Light, equivalent to the Grail King. Europa, the Dove, is the symbolic
incarnatory form of Maia, the Grail Queen and Mother of Mercury, the golden
child of light." (988)

“Dovie” was known for her gentleness and fierce loyalty to her family, which like the bear, she
would defend to the death:

“My mother...could be so tough and yet so kind, gentle, and loving all at the same
time. Woe to anyone who ever harms my dad or one of her children in her
presence.” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse, p.11)

“Moon-goddesses often have association with Bears. Bear is like the Primal
Mother, and will defend her cubs against all forces to the death.” (978)
In ancient paganism, God was female—the Great Mother Goddess. She was also called the
Dove Goddess and Lady of Transformation, according to “The Johannite Legend of the
Templars”...

“In Ice Age art the Great Goddess or Great Mother is responsible not only for
life and death but also for regeneration. It is no coincidence that the esoteric number
for woman is four; just as in the Christian Trinity, the idea of the Great Goddess in
three of her aspects—Maiden, Mother and Crone—cuts across history. Her fourth
and less well known aspect, the Dove Goddess, makes her the Lady of
Transformation...
“Worship of the divinity continued from the Paleolithic era...
“The Great Mother exemplified natural generative forces of the belly or womb of
the earth, the cave of subterranean darkness. As the Great Goddess, she is not per
se a mother or a fertility deity; she has a far wider concept—that of Cosmic
Creatrix. For Stone Age people, God was female... Caves, crevasses, and caverns
are natural manifestations of the primordial womb of the Universal Mother, and the
art of the deep recesses of the earth seems to be dedicated to her in much the same
way that cathedrals such as Chartres are consecrated to the Virgin Mary.” (141:2-
3,306)

That the Great Mother Goddess was also called the Dove Goddess and Lady of Transformation
is revealing. The New Age has long been referred to in the occult the Age of the Holy Spirit or
simply the Age of the Spirit. During the Age of the Spirit, the institutional Church will give
way to a more spiritual form of worship, focusing less on doctrine and more on experiences
ascribed to the Holy Spirit. This explains the present overemphasis on the Holy Spirit in
Pentecostalism, with their attendant signs and lying wonders. And in some Charismatic and
Pentecostal circles, the 'Spirit' that is being invoked has usurped the exalted position that
rightfully belongs exclusively to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Another heresy that is being introduced through the Messianic/ Hebrew Roots Movement claims
that the Holy Spirit is female. This false doctrine is a direct attempt to substitute the occult
trinity of “father, mother and son” for the Biblical Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
According to Thomas Friend, the author of Fallen Angel: The Untold Story of Jimmy Page and
Led Zeppelin, on the inner cover of the Led Zeppelin IV album, which introduced Stairway to
Heaven, there is found a statement of this group's belief in the occult trinity. Notice that the
mother in the Qabalistic trinity is called the Dove:

"Horus the Hawk, the son in the Qabalistic trinity. This is on the Led Zeppelin
IV inner album cover mountain. Note the small crown on top of the head. The eye
is below it to the right, and the beak is to the right of the eye. Coming down the
neck toward the shoulder of the right wing, the extension of the right wing is folded
under the shoulder. The father and mother in the Qabalistic trinity are on the top of
the mountain, the Hermit and the Dove...
"...the mountain top, Hermit is the Devil himself." (Copyright - Atlantic Records)
(982:198,386)

Thomas Friend, once a Led Zeppelin devotee but now a born-again Christian, later refutes the pagan
concept of a female Holy Spirit.

“The logical conclusion then, is that these occultists are in error when applying a
feminine singular to the Hebrew Godhead. They also say that the 'Mother' in their
Qabalistic trinity is the Holy Spirit in the Bible. They use the Holy Spirit as
 Qabalistic trinity is the Holy Spirit in the Bible. They use the Holy Spirit as
presented in scripture to represent the other (this is the dove that the Hermit is
standing on at the top of the mountain on the inner cover of Led Zeppelin's fourth
album). Conversely, this is what the Lord Jesus Christ had to say about the Holy
Spirit to his disciples, just before he was crucified: 'I have yet many things to say
unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is
come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but
whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to
come.'” (John 16:12-13) The Lord Jesus Christ presents him as masculine.
(982:214)

In his expose of Led Zeppelin, Friend wrote about the direct appeals of this rock band to recruit
bondslaves for Satan. One song, stated Friend, “...Dazed and Confused contains a two-part
command from Robert Plant to the listener to sell his or her soul to the Devil.” In 1999, Robert
Plant, presumably of the Plantard bloodline, started a rock band called the "Priory of Brion"
which was named after the Priory of Zion:

"The Priory of Brion grew out of a reunion between Robert Plant and his old friend
Kevyn Gammond from the Band of Joy... According to Robert in an interview, the
band's name was an amalgam of the Priory of Zion (a mysterious and ancient
French secret society) and The Life of Brian (the Monty Python film). The band
members were at first introduced under names which were obviously not their real
ones... Kevyn Gammond (aka 'Carlyle Egypt')... Paul Timothy (aka 'Owain
Glyndwr')...Paul Wetton (aka 'Eric Bloodaxe' and 'Brian')...Andy Edwards (aka
'Aleister Crowley' and several other stage names)..."

Plant also wrote the lyrics to "Stairway to Heaven"—a blend of Celtic/Druid rock music and
mythology—which is considered the most popular rock song of all time. Plant's lyrics are
loaded with Celtic, Druidic and Black Sabbath symbolism, Arthurian lore, specific allusions to
Tolkein's Lord of the Rings, and detailed instructions on how to make a pact with the Devil.
More than one analysis of Led Zeppelin's music has speculated that Stairway to Heaven is really
the Stairway to Tolkein's Middle Earth.

PAPA BEAR

“I was born May 6, 1943. I was reared in a military family. My father is USAF Lt.
Col. (Ret.) Milton V. Cooper. He prefers to be called Jack, the nickname given to
him by the family when he was a boy...” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse,
p.8)

American readers will know that “Jack” is a nickname for “John”—not Milton! But few
readers know that “John” (Fr. Jean) is the adopted name of all Grand Masters of the Prieuré de
Sion. According to Holy Blood, Holy Grail,

"After 1188 [the Prieuré de] Sion is said to have chosen a grand master of its own,
the first of them being Jean de Gisors. According to the 'Prieuré documents' every
grand master, on assuming his position, had adopted the name Jean (John)—or,
since there were four women, Jeanne (Joan). Sion's grand masters are therefore
alleged to have comprised a continuous succession of Jeans and Jeannes, from
1188 to the present. This succession was clearly intended to imply an esoteric and
Hermetic papacy based on John, in contrast (and perhaps opposition) to the exoteric
one based on Peter.
 one based on Peter.
"One major question, of course, was which John. John the Baptist? John the
Evangelist—the 'Beloved Disciple' in the Fourth Gospel? Or John the Divine,
author of the Book of Revelation? It clearly seemed to be one of these three
because Jean de Gisors in 1188 had purportedly taken the title of Jean II. Who,
then, was Jean I?" (31:159)

The following is Cooper's description of his father:

“Now I love my Dad. He is my friend. He is an independent, gregarious, feisty,

tough, confident, adventurous, sometimes overbearing, handsome, BIG BEAR of a
man.” (William Cooper, Behold a Pale Horse, p.10)

At this point it is not unreasonable to hypothesize that Cooper's description of his father as a
“big bear of a man” may be a cryptic allusion to Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair being the Great
Bear.

BABY BEAR

Canst thou bring forth Mazzaroth in his season? or canst thou guide Arcturus with
his sons? - Job 38:32

Bible commentaries seem to agree that this verse is a reference to the constellation of the Great
Bear. “In the King James Bible (Job 9:9; 38:32) it is translation of the Hebrew word 'Ayish
(ash),' which probably means the constellation the Great Bear.” (977)

This Hebrew word ash/Ayish in Job 38:32 actually means bier, which is a coffin or the stand
upon which a coffin is placed.
 “The Hebrew word ash or Ayish in the Book of Job, ix, 9, and xxxviii, 32, supposed
to refer to the square in this constellation as a bier, not a bear, was translated
Arcturus by St. Jerome in the Vulgate...” (978:169)

Is this another aspect of Arthur's Wain which rotates slowly around the North Pole as a
continuous funeral procession?

“The Bier and Great Coffin were other titles [of the Great Bear]. In other traditions
the Seven Stars are a bier followed by mourners, as in the Arabic Banat Na'ash al
Kubra,'the Daughters of the Great Bier', the Mourners; they saw the constellation as
a funeral procession, attributing this title to the slow and solemn motion of the
figure around the pole, with the stars of the Dipper as the coffin and the handle as
mourners. Arabian Christians identified them as 'the Bier of Lazarus' and it was
thought that the tradition possibly arose from the slow and solemn motion of the
figure around the pole. The Skidi Pawnees saw it as a stretcher with a sick man on
it.”

In the tail of Great Bear Constellation are found three stars—Alioth, Alcor-Mizar and Alkaid.
According to Hastings' Dictionary of the Bible, these stars are the sons of the Great Bear.

“[In] the well-known constellation of the Great Bear...or Ayish...the 'sons' of Ayish
are spoken of in Job 38:32, and are regarded as the three stars in the tail of the
bear...” (James Hastings, A Dictionary of the Bible, “Astronomy and Astrology”) -
974:191

THE GREAT BEAR CONSTELLATION (URSA MAJOR)

Of these stars, Alcor and Mizar are a double star or twins.

“MIZAR (Zeta Ursae Majoris). One of the most famed stars of the sky, second
magnitude (2.27) Mizar, 78 light years away, is the Zeta star of Ursa Major, the
Greater Bear, the second star in from the end of the handle of the Big Dipper, and
 Greater Bear, the second star in from the end of the handle of the Big Dipper, and
the Dipper's fourth brightest star. In large part its fame comes from the coupling of
the star with a nearby visual companion, fourth magnitude Alcor, only 12 minutes
of arc (a fifth of a degree) to the northeast. The two, Mizar and Alcor, termed the
'horse and rider' by the Arabians, are a good test of minimal vision. The star's
Arabic name derives from a word meaning 'the groin' of the celestial Bear that
plods silently around the north celestial pole (the name mistakenly drawn from
Merak, in the Dipper's bowl).” - 975

Employing the Hermetic axiom "as above, so below" based on the knowledge that Pierre
Plantard de Saint-Clair was the earthly representation of the Great Bear at this pivotal point in
the occult calendar, who would be the sons of Arcturus?

Alioth - William Cooper

Mizar - Ron (twin brother of Connie)
Alkaid - Thomas Plantard de Saint-Clair (son of Ronnie and Connie)

“ALKAID (Eta Ursae Majoris). Though the name may not be so well known, the
star certainly is, as Alkaid is the end star in the handle of the Big Dipper, the great
asterism that makes most of the grand constellation Ursa Major, the Greater Bear...
Alkaid's Arabic name means 'the leader'...” - 975

See: Antichrist in Virgo

In the Plantard family crest there are two bears, signifying Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, the
constellations of the Great Bear and Little Bear. From ancient times, these constellations were
used to navigate the high seas. Because they rotated around the North Pole like hands around a
clock, they served as clocks to nocturnal travelers. Edgar Allen Poe called them 'star dials' in his
arcane poem, Ulalume:

“Both of these [bears] have been—and perhaps still are—night clocks to the
English rustic, and measures of time generally, as in Poe's Ulalume, 'star-dials that
pointed to morn.'...
“Its well-known use by the early Greeks in navigation was paralleled in the
deserts of Arabia 'through which' according to Diodorus the Sicilian, 'travelers
direct their course by the bears, in the same manner as is done at sea.'” - 927:430

Excerpt from Ulalume

Our talk had been serious and sober,

But our thoughts they were palsied and sere—
Our memories were treacherous and sere—
For we knew not the month was October,
And we marked not the night of the year—
(Ah, night of all nights in the year!)
We noted not the dim lake of Auber—
(Though once we had journeyed down here)—
We remembered not the dank tarn of Auber,
Nor the ghoul-haunted woodland of Weir.

And now, as the night was senescent

And star-dials pointed to morn—
 And star-dials pointed to morn—
As the star-dials hinted of morn— (981)

Ulalume is full of esoteric meaning which only an occultist would comprehend. However, Poe's
obsession with the 'ghoul-haunted woodland of Weir' is explicable and relevant to any inquiry
as to the identity of the two Beasts of Revelation 13. 'Weir' is the German spelling of the
ancient French family of 'Vere' of the Merovingian bloodline. Arthurian lore contains many
veiled allusions to this Satanic bloodline, for example, Sir BeDEVERE, Arthur's loyal knight,
and GuineVERE, his queen.

It is from the Vere bloodline that the Antichrist which will eventually come. For this reason, an
ancient body called the Dragon Court has been in existence to preserve and protect the
Vere/Weir bloodline.

"The Dragon Court exists as an organization solely for the bloodline descendants of
the ancient Vere family—the senior bloodline successors as a Scythian-Merovin,
Elven House of Princess Maelasanu—and for those whose bloodlines are extracted
from this descent and its ancient Dragon Court." (342:8)

The surname VERE has many variations which are determined by locality, amongst which are
found the following forms: Vere, de Vere, Ver, de Ver, Veer, Vear(e), Veir, Veyre, Vare,
Veary, Very, Vary, Vire, Revere, Sver(e), Svar, Shpere, Spear(e), Spere, Svear, Fere, Fear,
Fairy; Ware, Wayer, Waer, Weyir, Weyr, Weir(e), Weier, Wear(e), Weary, Wehre, Werre,
Weer, Werr, and Wyre.

THE FALSE PROPHET IN CANCER

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and

he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before
him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to
worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Rev. 13:11-12

Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's

clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matt.
7:15

In the false 'Gospel in the Stars', the 'first sign, Virgo, represents the protevangelium, that 'the
seed of the woman would destroy the seed of the serpent. The final four signs--Taurus, Gemini,
Cancer and Leo--all represent the consummation of the age, at which time the "Promised Seed"
will come to destroy the seed of the serpent. Certain stars in these astrological signs are
supposed to portray the Promised Seed shepherding his flock of sheep until the final
consummation of all things. The following synopsis of the 'Gospel in the Stars' fallacy is posted
on the Prophecy Central website. Note the extensive imagery of the Shepherd leading and
protecting his Sheepfold:

"The first four signs [of the Zodiac] would prefigure the person, work and triumph
of the illustrious Redeemer.

“Virgo, the Virgin, is the first sign. She has an ear of wheat in one hand and a
branch in the other. The wheat is actually seed, and symbolizes the 'seed of the
woman.' The branch is a familiar Old Testament name for the Messiah. The same
woman is seen in the first Decan of this sign, Coma, holding a baby, the Branch, or
the Desire of Nations. The next Decan in this group is Centaurus, a half-horse, half-
man. This could represent the child who is born, having two natures: being both God
and man. The last Constellation in this Sign is Bootes, or Arcturus, who is the Great
Shepherd and Harvester. Together these images seem to portray, as in the Bible, the
virgin birth of a child who has two natures, and the role of that child when he is
grown as The Great Shepherd, leading His flock...

"The last four signs make the most sense if they stand for the final consummation of
all things. This section would then foretell the coming judgments on the earth and
the glorious outcome of Christ's reign.
 the glorious outcome of Christ's reign.

“Taurus, the Bull, is an angry, rushing animal, which would be a meaningful

symbol of God delivering His wrath during the Tribulation. The Decans are Orion,
Eridanus, and Auriga. Orion is the warrior-prince with a sword on his side and his
foot on the hare or serpent. Eridanus, the torturous River, is the River of Judgment
belonging to Orion. Auriga, the Shepherd, is a picture of a powerful shepherd-king
who tenderly holds a she-goat and two little goats in his left arm. This could be a
picture of The Lord's comfort of the persecuted believers of this coming period of
judgment.
“Gemini, The Twins, are two human figures seated together in loving closeness.
This could portray the Marriage of the Lamb. The Decans are Lepus, Canis Major,
and Canis Minor. Lepus is the mad hare, the enemy under Orion's feet. Canis Major,
Sirius, the Great Dog could prefigure the Prince coming in His glory. Then Canis
Minor, Procyon, The Second Dog, would be his princely following.
“Cancer the Crab is the figure of a crab, in the act of taking and holding on with
its pincers. This could be a picture of the victorious King of Kings when He returns,
and the Decans, Ursa Minor, the Lesser Bear, Ursa Major the Greater Bear, and
Argo, could picture His privileged followers. Ursa Minor could also mean the lesser
sheepfold, and stand for the first-born who will be rulers, and Ursa Major could be
the greater sheepfold, the ones born later. Argo, the Ship, brings the weary travelers
home from their toils and travels.
“Leo, the Lion might easily picture Christ in His final victory over the Devil. All
three of the Decans point to the destruction of the enemy, pictured as a serpent.
Hydra, the fleeing Serpent, is about to be pounced upon by the lion. Crater, the Bowl
of Wrath, is placed on the serpent. And Corvus, the Raven, the bird of doom, is also
on the serpent, devouring his carcass." (850)

Prophecy Central, D. James Kennedy, E.W. Bullinger et al would have Christians believe that
the Great Bear and Little Bear constellations represent God's sheepfolds. A distinction is even
made between two classes of sheep---a little fold of 'first-born who will be rulers' and a greater
fold which follows them. What might be the esoteric meaning of these sheepfolds? In the
course of our research we happened upon the website of the Mystery of Rennes-le-Château, the
French village where Merovingians claim to have discovered evidence disproving the Biblical
origins of Christianity. An article on this website titled “Francis Bacon & The Arcadian
Academy” revealed the occult meaning of Ursa Major and Ursa Minor:

“According to Peter Dawkins, in his book on the English Arcadian Academy;

“Arcadia was presided over by shepherds, and Pan was the great God of
Arcadia…arcadia comes from the word Arcas – the son of Zeus & Callisto. Callisto
is the Great Bear & Arcas is the Little Bear in astronomical terms, and in Greek
Mythology. These stars circumnavigate the North Pole Star – which esoterically is
the symbol of high Kingship... the Bear is a ‘veil’ to a real name, which means
shepherd. It is where the sheep (ie initiates) and shepherds (adepts & Masters)
come from...” (573)

The final sentence is the key that unlocks the meaning of this sign: “...the Bear is a ‘veil’ to a
real name, which means shepherd. It is where the sheep (ie initiates) and shepherds (adepts &
Masters) come from...”

Initiates? Adepts & Masters? This discovery seemed so significant that we purchased the $50
book cited by Hamblett—Arcadia: The Ancient Egyptian Mysteries by Peter Dawkins—hoping
to learn more. We were not disappointed. Dawkins' explanation of the esoteric meaning of the
Great and Little Bear constellations was worth the price of the book:

“Associated in esoteric knowledge with this role of high kingship is the symbol of
the North Pole Star - the 'crown of the world - and the circumpolar constellations.
Of these, the Lesser and the Greater Bear are the most important: the former
providing the present North Pole Star. The 'Bear' is a veil to the real name, which
means 'Dove', or 'Sheepfold', or 'Chariot'. As the Chariot, it is Arthur's vehicle of
manifestation, as also the fiery chariot on which Elijah ascended to heaven. Hence
Arthur is known as 'the Bear'. As the Sheepfold, it is the heavenly place of peace
and enlightenment that Jesus spoke of, to which the 'sheep' (i.e. initiates) of
mankind are led, and from which the 'shepherds' (i.e. the adepts and masters) come
from. As the Dove, it is known as the vehicle of the Holy Spirit, by means of which
that Spirit descends to the earth and governs its kingdom. It is signified by the royal
crown of a High King (i.e. a crown with arches) - a halo of light which descends
upon a truly worthy and anointed (i.e. illuminated) soul, bestowing full knowledge
of Truth. The Great Bear is known as the mother of the Little Bear, which is her
son. The Rampant Bear and Ragged Staff emblem...depicts just this - the Bear
constellation tied to the Pole of the earth's axis, and dancing around it.” (889:80)

There you have it, the real meaning of Sheepfold in astrology: “As the Sheepfold, it is the
heavenly place of peace and enlightenment that Jesus spoke of, to which the 'sheep' (i.e.
initiates) of mankind are led, and from which the 'shepherds' (i.e. the adepts and masters) come
from.” Although Dawkins credits Jesus Christ with this pagan concept, it is foreign to Jesus'
teaching. Nowhere in chapter 10 of John's gospel, or anywhere else in Scripture, does Jesus
refer to His sheep as 'initiates', 'adepts' or 'masters'. As a matter of fact, He is recorded in
Matthew 23 as saying, "Neither be ye called masters; for one is your Master, even Christ." As
for the trustworthiness of adepts and masters who are lead the initiates entrusted to them, let us
not forget the words of Albert Pike, who stated in Morals & Dogma that Masonic initiates are
intentionally misled by the adepts and masters:

“Part of the symbols [of Freemasonry] are displayed there to the initiate, but he is
intentionally misled by false interpretations. It is not intended that he shall
understand them, but it is intended that he shall imagine that he shall understand
them. Their true explication is reserved for the Adepts, the princes of Masonry.”
(155:819)

False prophets and teachers know that sheep are very much herd animals. By way of warning
about bad companions, this writer's father used to tell the story of the 'Judas goat'. Before they
slaughter the sheep, meat packers train an old goat to lead the sheep out of the pen and down a
chute into the slaughter house. At the last moment, the Judas goat is allowed to escape by a
side-gate while the sheep go to the slaughter. False prophets are like Judas goats who are
strategically placed to lead God's sheep to the slaughter, for Jesus said that the final end of
deceived sheep is destruction. He also warned that deceivers would present themselves as
Christians, affecting a disposition ever so meek and mild (like sheep), however, in reality such
deceivers are a species more dangerous than goats; they are wolves!

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth
to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate,
and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they
 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they
are ravening wolves. - Matt. 7:13-15

The notorious German Thule Society, which Hitler joined in 1919, was founded by the
followers of Jorg Lanz Von Liebenfels and Guido von List. Lanz was "formerly a Cistercian
monk whom the Roman Church excommunicated because of his homosexual activities." (1029)
List was "a close associate of Lanz who formed an elitist priesthood called the Armanen Order,
to which Hitler may have belonged." In a penetrating analysis of the occult origin of Nazi
Aryanism, authors of The Pink Swastika, Kevin Abrams and Scott Lively, implicate the Thule
Society of empowering 'initiates' with supernatural powers for eugenics purposes:

“The Nazi dream of an Aryan super-race was adopted from an occult group called
the Thule Society, founded in 1917 by followers of Lanz and List. The occult
doctrine of the Thule Society held that the survivors of an ancient and highly
developed lost civilization (Atlantis) could endow Thule initiates with esoteric
powers and wisdom. The initiates would use these powers to create a new race of
Aryan supermen who would eliminate all 'inferior' races." (1029)

The former Cistercian monk, Jorg Lanz Von Liebenfels was considered the 'father' of National
Socialism by Austrian psychologist Wilhem Daim, the author of a 1958 study of Lanz, The Man
Who Gave Hitler His Ideas. A compelling expose of the Merovingian infiltration of the
Catholic Church reveals that the Cistercians were Rosicrucians:

“Like most Merovingian monasteries Glastonbury became a Benedictine

Monastery. And the purpose of Merovingian monasteries was 'infiltration' based on
the belief that the best way to crush the Church was from 'within.'... There is no
doubt in my mind that [the Grail legend] would have been the work of the
Cistercians, founded by Benedictine monks as 'the ratchet' for the structural
organization of [the Prieuré de] Sion. Joseph of Arimathea is alone associated with
the Grail legend and the Quest of the Grail legends, which per Colliers
Encyclopedia, are dominated by the mystical symbolism of Cistercians...
“More than any heretical Merovingian organizations, the Cistercians personified
the banality of evil at its finest. The name Cistercian and of their first monastery,
Citeaux derive from Cistus, of the Cistaceae or Rockrose family resembling the
wild rose and cultivated in the Mediterranean. The Myrrh with which Mary
Magdalene anointed the Body of Jesus also comes from the Cistus family. And
they had chosen the Magdalene...assigning her the symbol of the Rose and Cross in
memory of the Brotherhood of the Sun founded by Akhenaten who had taken as its
symbol the Rose and Cross (Lewis). Cistercians were Rosicrucians. And this
Rosicrucian order of monks would triumph in its infiltration of the Church.” (550)

The Secret Doctrine, authored by H.P. Blavatsky in 1893, became the sourcebook for twentieth
century esoteric societies, including the Thule Society. The inner core of the Thule Society were
Satanists such as Dietrich Eckart to whom Hitler dedicated his book, Mein Kampf. Hitler
assiduously applied himself to the The Secret Doctrine, whose underlying premise was the
Aryan root race theory, a gnostic belief that the present race of Homo Sapiens is destined to be
replaced by the seventh root race of "godmen" or Homo Noeticus, the New Man. There is
evidence that the German scientists were aided by contact with 'Gray entities' from inside the
Earth for the building of their war machine and genetic research.

St John: Head of Knights and Initiates

 The Templar Revelation by Clive Prince and Lynn Picknett confirms other reports of the Nazi
sympathies of Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair, whose possible connection with Hitler's 'Angel of
Death', Josef Mengele, was explored in a previous section, Virgo in Antichrist. A website
critical of Plantard's "mystic monarchist games" also exposed the fascist proclivities of the
former Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion:

“Born in 1920, he first came to public notice in the Occupied France of 1942 as the
editor of a journal called Vaincre pour une Jeune cehvalerie (Conquest for a Young
Knighthood)—which was markedly uncritical of the Nazi oppressors, and which was
actually published with their approval. This was officially the organ of the Order
Alpha Galates, a quasi-Masonic and chivalric society, based in Paris, of which
Plantard became the Grand Master at the age of just twenty-two...Vaincre is now
[1998] the title of the Priory's internal bulletin, which Pierre de Saint-Clair edits with
his son Thomas.” (242:43)

Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair was strongly influenced by one Paul Le Cour, a French mystic who
wrote 'L'Ere du Verseau' (The Age of Aquarius). The 'Rennes-le-Château Papers of Paul Smith'
charts the development of the Prieuré de Sion and cites the work of M. Le Cour to expose the
fascist nature of the New World Order envisioned by the late Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion.
Translator Peter O’Reilly interprets Le Cour's vision of the Age of Aquarius as a civilization which
revives the mystery religion of ancient Atlantis: "In [L'Ere du Verseau] Le Cour looks forward to
the future Age of Aquarius as bringing with it the return of Christ in the role of Christ the King. It
is a work of esoteric and apocalyptic Christianity in which the author also voices his belief in an
esoteric spiritual tradition that originated in Atlantis…" (994)

Note that the periodical which Pierre Plantard edited with his son Thomas, Vaincre pour une Jeune
cehvalerie, means 'Conquest for a Young Knighthood.' In Le Cour's The Age of Aquarius, the
following passages are from a chapter entitled ‘The Formation of a New Order of Knighthood.’ In
1949, Le Cour disclosed that his organization, Atlantis, had been making preparations for the
formation of 'special establishments' for the training of future leaders. By this he meant a monastic
"community of initiates under the direction of a man with a sense of mission."

"For more than twenty years we have been calling in 'Atlantis' for the formation of a
new order of Knighthood and indicating the means by which it might be achieved...
Jules Romain, in 'Le Probleme Numero Un', published in 1947, wishes, in the face of
the current enormous danger, for a spiritual power consisting of a grand order of
chivalry and it seems to him that for it to be realised the support of the Catholic church
would be of great help. Another French author, Raymond Abellio, has published,
likewise in 1947, a curious work entitled 'Vers un prophetisme nouveau', in which he,
too, calls for the formation of a grand order consisting of a community of initiates
under the direction of a man with a sense of mission." (994)

Le Cour insisted that the Roman Catholic Church must radically change its Christology if she
would be the patron of the new knighthood. Implied here is the gnostic belief that St. John the
Divine (a composite John the Baptist and John the Evangelist) was the Messiah rather than Jesus
Christ.

"The order would comprise novices, disciples and masters. He does not indicate the
means of realising it, but thinks that it could be through the Catholic Church, on
condition that it lifts the veil off the New Testament and 'questions St John....'
"Let me also point out that P.Riquet in a conference in 1947 at Notre Dame de
Paris, has also spoken for the need for the creation of an order of knighthood. And
 Paris, has also spoken for the need for the creation of an order of knighthood. And
Jean-Louis Lagor has published a work with the title 'Une Chevalerie Renaitra' (An
Order of Knighthood Will Be Reborn)." (994)

The target group for initiation into the new knighthood was the youth culture, which had been
victimized by the baleful influence of secular humanism. Le Cour saw France as the locus of
planning and activity by the new leadership with priories, i.e. monasteries, as the training centers.
These warrior-monks will be directed by the false 'Christ' when he returns.

"Young people have been abandoned for far too long without moral or spiritual
direction. Teaching has been developed at the expense of 'education'. Everything
therefore needs to be created from the beginning to bring about the formation of
leaders and educators, subject to a discipline simultaneously heroic and sanctifying, in
special establishments: Priories (Prieures). We possess in France buildings that are
permeated with a spiritual dynamism that favours its realisation, such as Mont St
Michel with its wonderful cloisters for meditation, its majestic chapel for prayer and
its magnificent hall of knights. All are unused.
"Our country has a mission to fulfil. It has been shaken hard to wake it from its
torpor, its lethargy; and now ideas are shooting up on all sides, for France is a seedbed
of ideas. Let us try to understand what our mission consists of, let us try to fulfil it by
preparing knights of the Apocalypse whose head will be Christ when he returns!"
(994)

At the right moment, said Le Cour, a new Grail King would rise to the occasion of directing the
communities of youthful initiates. The esoteric Church of St. John would replace the traditional
Church of St. Peter, which had ruthlessly persecuted the Knights Templar and related Gnostic
sects.

"The cycle of the romances of the Round Table tells us the story of the holy vessel,
the Grail, which there is good reason to connect with that Ganymede (i.e. Aquarius).
Considered as containing all light and all knowledge, it is the object of a quest, a
search to which the knights dedicate themselves. Their head is King Arthur, head of
the legendary order of knighthood of the Grail, who is to return one day at the head of
his knights to put the world back in order, and at that time all symbols will be
explained. But such an order of knighthood will have to be placed under the patronage
of St John, who is the head of knights and of initiates." (994)

The preceding passage presents an altogether different type of world order than is portrayed by the
usual New World Order propaganda. Virtually all exposure of the global conspiracy creates the
image of a secular, socialist world government under the management of the United Nations. Yet,
according to the late Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion, which directs all other secret societies,
the new world order will be not only of a religious character but a dynamic network of monastic
communities under a priest-king. This would be a perfect fulfillment of a prophecy made in the
twelfth century by the famous mystic monk, Joachim of Fiore.

"...the third age would be one of love, joy, and freedom, when the knowledge of God
would be revealed directly in the hearts of all men. The Age of the Spirit was to be the
Sabbath or resting-time of mankind. Then the world would be one vast monastery, in
which all men would be contemplative monks rapt in mystical ecstasy and united in
singing the praises of God. And this new version of the kingdom of the Saints would
endure until the last judgment." (243:108-9)
 Joachim of Fiore (1135-1202 AD) was born in Calabria, Italy and became a Calabrian monk, an
order which merged with the Merovingian Celtic Church in 1128 A.D. "Joachim of Fiore, a
Cistercian Abbot from Southern Italy, allegedly received visions on Mount Tabor which inspired
him to write the 'Eternal Gospels' based on his own interpretation of Revelation 14:6. He
proclaimed that there were three ages of the world corresponding to the three persons of the Holy
Trinity. In the first age, the Father ruled the world through power and fear (Old Testament). The
Son ruled through wisdom and discipline in the second age (New Testament). The third age was
nearing (he prophesied around 1260) when the Holy Spirit would rule with universal love without
the need for institutions. In this third age, the Church would be freed from everything carnal and
worldly, and a new religious Order would be founded whose task it would be to propagate these
ideas and thereby save the whole world." (1009)

Joachim's prophecy may not be as far-fetched as it seems. In their book, The Trojan Horse: How
the New Age Infiltrates the Church, Brenda Scott and Samantha Smith reveal that the Temple of
Understanding, a 'Spiritual United Nations' launched by Eleanor Roosevelt, is networking monastic
communities worldwide in order to form the very leadership envisioned by Joachim of Fiore, Paul
Le Cour and Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair for the new global spirituality:

"In June of 1980, the...Temple of Understanding...sponsor(ed) the formation of a

World Monastic Council... - to be an international network of monks, nuns, scholars,
theologians and laity from...both East and West, who would work together to
create...the global society of the future to work for the awakening of spiritual
consciousness (godhood)." (24:83)

KALLISTOS WARE

Timothy Ware (1934-) was an Anglican theologian who converted to Greek Orthodoxy in
1958. In 1966, at age 32, he was ordained priest and became a monk, receiving the new name
'Kallistos'. He made his monastic vows at St. John the Theologian monastery on the Greek
island of Patmos and is now a bishop of the Eastern Orthodox Church and considered the
"foremost authority on Orthodoxy". Also in 1966, he returned to Oxford as Spalding Lecturer in
Eastern Orthodox Studies at the University. Bishop Kallistos Ware is today a major figure in
the interfaith / ecumenical movement. He has written books and conducted numerous seminars
on the Eastern Orthodox Church and Christian mysticism. The following profile appears on the
website of Ohio State University, where Bishop Ware lectured in April of 2002:

"Consecrated Bishop of Diokleia in 1982, Bishop Kallistos is well known for his
popular books about Eastern Orthodox faith and practice and has been hailed as
'perhaps the 20th century's foremost authority on Orthodoxy' by the Russian
Orthodox press. Bishop Kallistos serves in the diocese of Thyatira of the
Patriarchate of Constantinople.
"Bishop Kallistos Ware is a resident of Oxford, England. A British native, he left
the Anglican Church and converted to Greek Orthodoxy in 1958. Timothy Ware's
first contact with Orthodoxy was as a 17- year-old who 'by chance or divine
providence' attended an Orthodox vigil service already in progress and immediately
felt a sense of 'belonging' although he could not understand the language. He was
ordained to the priesthood at age 32 and took monastic vows at St. John the
Theologian monastery on the Greek island of Patmos.
"Before retiring last year, His Grace was the Spalding Lecturer in Eastern
Orthodox Studies at the University of Oxford, where he had completed his own
studies in Greek and Latin. His Grace also was a fellow of Pembroke College at
Oxford. Active in work for Christian unity, His Grace was a member of the
 Oxford. Active in work for Christian unity, His Grace was a member of the
Anglican Orthodox Joint Doctrinal Discussions from 1973-84 and spent five years
in the mid 1990s as co-chairman of the Preparatory Commission for the Orthodox
Methodist Theological Dialogue. He has written three books, including The
Orthodox Church, and has translated three major Greek liturgical works. The first
of an eight-volume set of his own collected works, entitled The Inner Kingdom, was
recently published." (662)

The Greek island of Patmos, where the apostle John received his vision for the book of
Revelation, was and is still a hotbed of pagan worship. On the high point of the island, in the
very location where the monastery of St. John the Theologian now stands, there was in ancient
times a famous temple in honor of Diana, also called Artemis. The founder of the monastery,
Ioannis Christodoulos, was a leading figure in the Eastern church and monasticism at the time.

"In 313 AD, Christianity was officially recognized as the religion of the Roman
Empire and from this time the new faith spread rapidly throughout the Greek
islands. The eastern Christian empire of Byzantium exercised control over the isle
of Patmos and in the 4th century the ancient shrine of the goddess Diana was torn
down. Directly upon its foundations was erected a church dedicated to St. John but
this church was itself destroyed sometime between the 6th and 9th centuries when
the island was subjected to frequent raids by the Arabs. Left deserted after these
raids, Patmos next entered history in 1088 when a Byzantine emperor granted the
island to the monk Christodolous, whose intention it was to establish a monastery.
Built upon the remains of the old church and the older shrine of Diana, the
monastery of St. John has been in continuous operation for over 900 years." (1008)

From prehistoric times, the religion of Patmos was the worship of Artemis. There the Greek
Orthodox monks tore down the temple of Artemis in order to erect a monastery to St. John
instead. Or did they? Several occult sources agree that Diana/Artemis was the bisexual god,
Janus/Jana; and a Roman philosopher informs us that the Roman variant of 'John' is
'Janus/Jana'. Robert Graves stated in The White Goddess: "...Janus was really the oak-god
Dianus who was incarnate in the King of Rome..." - (406:69) "Macrobius...says that Janus is
two-faced because he is a fusion of Artemis and Apollo (i.e., Sun and Moon, Janus and Jana =
Dianus and Diana); thus he corresponds to the alchemical hermaphrodite..." (983)

In The Cult of the Black Virgin, Ean Begg confirms the duality and bisexuality of Janus/Diana,
adding that Janus was also John: "Janus is one of the most important Roman gods. His two
faces illustrate not only his role as deity of beginnings, looking to past and future, but his
essential duality as the original bisexual chaos and the form which emerged from it. Diana/Jana
and Saturn are especially associated with him. He may have been Gallicized into Jean (John),
one of the companions to the Black Virgin." (272:7)

Monastic communities have historically built their monasteries and other edifices on the sacred
sites of pagans, where human sacrifice was practiced as part of their Satanic rites. The
construction of monasteries and cathedrals on sacred sites proliferated due to the fact that such
sites were connected to an underground energy grid known today as ley lines. With the advance
of Christianity, the worship of pagan gods and goddesses declined and was eventually
proscribed by the Roman Catholic Church. To circumvent this prohibition, pagans simply
disguised themselves as Christian monks and infiltrated the Church, where they were, whether
unwittingly or no, given carte blanche as 'holy men' to reactivate the ancient underground grid:
 "These mystical, occult [ley] lines join together the sacred sites thus making a grid
which is a force or source field - ancient magic of the cabbalists and shamans...
'The ancestors walked the land, also filling it with spiritual forces. These forces are
concentrated in sacred sites [which] include fertility sites, conception sites,
initiation sites, and cremation and burial sites. Graham Mundine has shown how the
ley-lines of the pagan world are to be reactivated from sacred site to sacred site, as
the 'Rainbow Spirit Theology' book discloses." (70:15)

In their New Age book The Light Shall Set You Free, Norma Milanovich and Shirley McCune
expound at length upon the electromagnetic grid that was developed by the gods of Atlantis.
This matrix of sacred sites were and are still believed to connect mankind to the underworld
and the 'divine cosmos'. In the selection from the book below, the hyperlinked words and
phrases lead to more detailed information in another report, Heeding Bible Prophecy, which
outlines the various elements of the New Age plan to recreate pre-flood world of Atlantis via
demonic beings who will present themselves as reincarnated Atlantean high priests and
priestesses.

"In Atlantis, an etheric energy matrix existed beneath the Earth's surface,
providing a lattice network for such activities as telepathic communication and
healing. This matrix was known as a grid...
"This grid was a system of electromagnetic frequencies created through
worldwide linkages made by human thought waves and energy transmitted by the
Earth and through crystals. The system followed a carefully designed global
plan...[which] embodied the study and form of geomancy, which means the
divination of lines drawn at random...
"...The electromagnetic grid was built by the Thrice-Greatest Geomancer and
Master of Earth known as Hermes Trismegistus and the High Priests and
Priestesses of Atlantis who came to earth to build a great civilization for this part of
the galaxy...
"...The effect of this grid was to connect humans to the Earth though the power
of Spirit.
"Hermes and other beings of Light first implanted celestial crystals within the
etheric bodies of the High Priests and Priestesses and then within those of the Light
Workers of the hierarchy. These crystals contained symbolic and geometric coding
from the Universal Language of Light that send out frequencies to connect signals
emanating from points of Light. This effort formed lines of Light radiating from
their etheric bodies which connected to the Earth, forming the Illuminated web of
Divine energy...
"These select emissaries of the Divine journeyed to various lands and sites. Each
time they visited foreign places, the currents of energy were made stronger... The
grid truly connected the Heavens and Earth and formed the perfect Oneness...
"That was the state of affairs when Atlantis was in it glory, But... Certain
individuals, not of the priesthood, began to rise to power and change the systems,
which resulted in disaster. In time, Atlantis fell, and...many of these great
accomplishments were buried with the land underneath the ocean floor... Some of
the survivors, who were keepers of this sacred knowledge on geomancy, settled in
Egypt and the Yucatán, keeping a portion of the mysteries and knowledge alive...
history would reveal that the souls of the High Priests and Priestesses would
reincarnate to rebuild Atlantis in the form of the Seventh Golden Age. That time is
now." (45:346-50)
There were other sacred sites in Greece as well. The following article notes that Mary, the
mother of Jesus Christ, was declared the "Mother of God" at the Council of Ephesus, which city
was the very heart of Diana/Artemis worship. Some churchmen attempt to ascribe the rise of
cult of the Black Virgin in Ephesus to the worship of Mary, the mother of Jesus, who, they
claim (without a shred of evidence) lived there with John in her later years. This begs the
question, however, the worship of Artemis being the obvious reason for the Black Virgin cult in
Ephesus. Ean Begg traces the origins of Black Virgin statues in Greece to pre-Christian idols of
Artemis, whose duality is expressed in her contradictory images. In Ephesus, she was the many-
breasted Black Virgin; in Arcadia and Sparta, the lesbian goddess invoked by women
participating in same-sex unions.

"It is debatable how far the Artemis of Greece, the 'maiden huntress', should be
identified with the many-breasted, fertile, Ephesian goddess. Between them they
combine the paradox of virgin and mother which is at the heart of Christian Marian
dogma...
"It is with Artemis of Ephesus rather than the Arcadian Lady of Wild Things that
we must now concern ourselves in the quest for the origins of the Black Virgin.
According to legend she started as a black meteoric stone... Ephesus was where the
Virgin Mary traditionally spent her closing years before her Dormition and
Assumption, with St John, before his exile to Patmos. In Ephesus in AD 431 the
Virgin Mary was proclaimed 'Mother of God', and her cult spread thence to the city
of the she-wolf, Rome, and so to all the corners of the world, as, indeed, a
thousand years earlier had that of her predecessor, the Black Ephesian. The best
known image of Artemis of Ephesus, a Roman alabaster and bronze statue of the
second century, shows her with a black face, hands and feet, multiple breasts, on
her head a mural crown or tower, and on her dress images including bulls, goats,
deer and a bee...
"Artemis is hostile to love and punishes sexual transgressors severely.
Unawakened little girls, brownies playing bears to her honour in the forest, are
great favourites of hers, but boys fare less well at the hands of her devotees. In
Sparta, youths were flogged in front of the statue of Artemis Orthia (upright), in a
combination of fertility rite and painful puberty initiation. The sexual puritanism of
the new goddess of Christianity, with its proliferation of monastic establishments,
would not altogether have displeased Arcadian Artemis." (272:54)

Another New Age fable imagines that, during his exile on the island of Patmos, the apostle John
crafted a Black Madonna which was removed to France. No proof of this absurdity exists,
however, the tale does demonstrate that the Black Virgin was venerated on Patmos.

"One of the treasured relics taken from the Cathar stronghold of Montsegur,
France, just before its fall to the Inquisition, was a statue of the Christian Black
Madonna crafted by St. John on the Isle of Patmos. It was a simple artwork, for
John was not a skilled craftsman; but it was and is a venerated talisman,
empowered by St. John during his mystical trances, through which he imparted the
Book of Revelation." (1025)

Where was Atlantis?

We interject here that, in 2004, Chuck Missler of Koinonia House sponsored an 'Exclusive
Archaeological Cruise Event' called The Malta Expedition. Tourists sailed to the islands of
Patmos, Malta and Crete with excursions to Ephesus and Athens, where they visited the
Acropolis, Parthenon and Mars Hill. Two days were spent on the island of Malta, where the
Acropolis, Parthenon and Mars Hill. Two days were spent on the island of Malta, where the
tour visited the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Malta!

Day 7 - Tuesday, April 6

Early arrival on Malta. Visit Valletta - A World Heritage Site, Grand Master's
Palace (War Room), Paul's Cave, Paul's Shipwrecked Church, the fishing villages
and an ancient Tarxien temple. Exclusive evening dinner and book signing at the
Palazzo Parisio with dignitaries and those who assisted in the discovery of Paul's
Anchors.

Valletta, the capital of Malta, has 320 monuments making it one of the most concentrated
historic areas in the world and one of UNESCO's World Heritage Sites. At Valetta the tour will
also visit an ancient Tarxien temple. 'Tarxien' means 'huge stone' which describes those used for the
numerous prehistoric temples on Malta. The World Monuments Fund is trying to help protect
these temples. In Lady of the Beasts: The Goddess and Her Sacred Animals, Buffie Johnson
informs that Malta was renown for its temples and monuments to the Mother Goddess.

"Even in the monument strewn islands of the Mediterranean, the spiritual

singularity of the goddess temples of Malta is conspicuous. Built with monumental
boulders, yet finished with the first dressed stone within, these temples were
designed in a unique apsidal arrangement resembling the clover leaf form of the
goddess herself. Some temples, large enough to be compared with cathedrals, were
expanded through the addition of vaulted circular chambers. They contained altars,
fonts, ovens for baking sacred bread, and many goddess figures; the remains of one
are nearly six feet in height. A visit to the monuments there reveals convincing
evidence of goddess worship." (141:68)

The stated purpose of the Malta Expedition was to view the newly-discovered 'lost anchors' of
Paul's second missionary journey. The discoverer of the 'lost anchors of Paul' is Robert
Cornuke, president of the Bible Archaeology Search and Exploration Institute (BASE).
Cornuke's books are offered by the ministries of Chuck Missler and J.R. Church, as well as
many other so-called Christian ministries. There is no evidence that Cornuke, whose
organization co-sponsors the Malta cruise, has discovered these anchors but this does not deter
the promoters from publishing their speculations as facts.

The Misslers' excursion appears to have been a pretext for promoting ancient centers of occult
activity as historic Christian sites and this scheme may be even more sophisticated. Gaining in
popularity is the theory is that the Mediterranean Sea is the location of the lost civilization of
Atlantis! Archaeologists claim they have located underwater structures off the coast of Malta
and the latest studies argue the existence of an advanced civilization that predates dynastic
Egypt. Graham Hancock's recent book devoted 120 pages to evidence that Malta was the tip of
the former continent of Atlantis.

"Last year the idea that Malta was Atlantis gained international recognition and
featured in popular television documentaries, publications and guidebooks. A
Russian TV crew had visited Malta for this purpose and a documentary was
screened on OTR channel 1 in the Soviet Union. Piero Angela, of Super Quark, was
also interested enough to come to Malta to make a documentary about the subject.
David Furlong, author of Keys to the Temples, was also in Malta to study the
positions of prehistoric sites and compare them with British sites. The theory that
Malta was Atlantis was published in the Italian journal of archaeology Hera, while
the French journal Archeologie also carried articles about it. Best selling author
 the French journal Archeologie also carried articles about it. Best selling author
Graham Hancock had also published a book 'Underworld, flooded kingdoms of the
Ice Age' in the UK, dedicating 120 pages out of its total of 761 to Malta and the
publications Malta: Echoes of Plato's Island, and Dossier Malta - evidence for the
Magdalenian, published in 1997. The latter had suggested that the presence of man
on Malta could date back to about 15000 to 12000 BC rather than the traditionally
accepted date of about 7000 BC." (1044)

Mount Athos

Bishop Kallistos Ware is also the President of the Friends of Mount Athos, a society dedicated
to the "the advancement of education of the public in the study and knowledge of the history,
culture, arts, architecture, natural history, and literature of the Orthodox monasteries of Mount
Athos and the promotion of the religious and other charitable work of the Holy Community and
monasteries of Mount Athos". We will therefore consider some of the "history, culture, arts,
architecture, natural history, and literature of the Orthodox monasteries of Mount Athos".

History. Mount Athos is no ordinary sacred site in Greece, but the very center of Orthodox
monasticism. "The religious history of Athos goes back long before the birth of Christianity
however. The great marble peak of Mt. Athos (6670 feet, 2033 meters) was mentioned as early
as Homer and Aiskhylos as being the first home of the Greek gods Zeus and Apollo before they
moved to Mt. Olympus. Pagan hermits have lived in the deep forests since prehistoric times for
it was known then, as it has been forgotten now, that places where the ancient gods had lived
still held great powers for humans." Today, Mount Athos is still held in great reverence as a
'Holy Mountain' and populated exclusively with monastic communities, as well as many
hermits, totaling over 2,000 monks from all of the Orthodox traditions.

"For in spiritual terms Athos is not of this world at all: it is, at least for
those who live there, a station in sacred space, a foretaste of paradise. Not for
nothing is it known as the Holy Mountain.
"For more than a thousand years Athos has existed as the principal centre
of monasticism for the Orthodox Church -- or rather for all the Orthodox
Churches. Ever since Byzantine times it has been a pan-Orthodox, multi-
national centre. There were once monasteries for Albanians, Amalfitans,
Bulgarians, Georgians, Moldavians, Russians, Serbs, and Wallachians as well
as Greeks. Today there are still houses for Bulgarians, Greeks, Romanians,
Russians, and Serbs. Furthermore Athos is unique for being a portion of
contemporary Europe entirely devoted to the monastic life and to nothing
else.
"Today the Mountain has a total population of some 2000 monks, a figure
that is steadily rising. Most follow the cenobitic tradition which brings monks
into communities for living, working, and worshipping together. Others
follow the eremitical tradition and live as hermits, either in small groups or as
solitaries. Between them they inhabit a variety of different establishments."
(1026)

Arts and Architecture. Icons are an integral part of the Orthodox belief and tradition--a direct
violation of the 2nd commandment: "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any
likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the
water under the earth." Exod. 20:4. During Paul's second missionary journey, while he was in
Greece, God spoke through the apostle commanding all men, and in particular the Greeks, to
repent of their idol worship:
repent of their idol worship:

Now while Paul waited for them at Athens, his spirit was stirred in him, when he
saw the city wholly given to idolatry... Then Paul stood in the midst of Mars' hill,
and said, Ye men of Athens, I perceive that in all things ye are too superstitious.
For as I passed by, and beheld your devotions, I found an altar with this
inscription, TO THE UNKNOWN GOD. Whom therefore ye ignorantly worship,
him declare I unto you. God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that
he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;... Neither
is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to
all life, and breath, and all things; Forasmuch then as we are the offspring of God,
we ought not to think that the Godhead is like unto gold, or silver, or stone, graven
by art and man's device. And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now
commandeth all men every where to repent. Acts 17

There are, in fact, close to 18,000 icons on the 'Holy Mountain' of Athos today and many of
these are claimed to have performed miracles, particularly those of the Virgin Mary. Supposedly
largest collection of Christian art in the world, some of this artwork is blatantly pagan. For
example, one wall painting from an Athonite monastery displays a dragon eating the head of a
man; the facade of another monastery exhibits an All-Seeing Eye, the well-known symbol of
occult illumination. (1052)

Bill Schoenbelen writes from personal experience when he explains the occult meaning of the
All-Seeing Eye: "To 'open' the eye a little bit is to experience psychic powers. To open the eye
completely is to have your brain flooded with the 'pure' consciousness of Lucifer himself. This
is why one of the Masonic symbols is the 'All-Seeing Eye.' It is a symbol of Illumination. This
is Satan's counterfeit for being Born Again. In it, you acquire a 'personal relationship' with
Lucifer. You begin to think his thoughts and see with his eyes. You begin to look at humans the
way he does. It is not a pretty sight." (39:365)

In the Greek Orthodox Church, there the many dark icons that can be considered Black Virgins.
The Athens News Agency stated on November 11, 2002: "Several Eastern Orthodox
monasteries are located on Mount Athos, an all-male community dedicated to the Madonna for
a millennium." Monastic communities in the Roman Catholic Church, particularly the
Carmelite and Benedictine, were noted for their devotion to the Black Virgin. This is
understandable, considering that monasticism was birthed in Egypt (where Isis was worshipped)
and Christianized in Alexandria (where the Mary Magdalene cult arose), whence it was
transported to the Roman Empire by Athanasius, the Bishop of Alexandria, and to the
Byzantine Empire by Basil the Great. Subsequent to their genesis in Egypt, Black Virgins were
worshipped by monastic communities of the Eastern Orthodox and Roman Catholic churches, in
that order. Ean Begg stated, "Since the Catholic [Black Virgin] icons are Byzantine in origin, it
seems worth indicating some in Greece that are mentioned as potential [Black Virgins]..."
(272:239) The Mount Athos icon in the Monastery of Dochairou "is of a totally Black Virgin
and Child".

Recently, the Russian Orthodox Church claimed to have on display the “hand of Mary
Magdalene” which was brought from Mount Athos along with other “holy relics” including a
piece of the Jesus' Cross. According to Russian news accounts, during the month of September
(2006) faithful Orthodox Russians venerated the hand of Mary Magdalene which is considered
sacred. The Russian faithful waited in long lines for hours to see the relic and elderly ladies
claimed that the hand cured them of their illnesses. The hypocritical Russian Orthodox clergy,
who are leading the devotions to the hand of Marie Magdalene and the other relics from Mount

Moscow to bow to St. Mary Magdalene’s holy relics on Sunday. Some of them
came drawn by faith, others by Dan Brown’s controversial novel, The Da Vinci
Code.
“I don’t normally go to church,” Sasha, 20, a student, told Komsomolskaya
Pravda Daily while queuing to enter the cathedral.
“But I have read what Dan Brown wrote about Christ and Mary Magdalene’s
relationship, and I thought I’d go see the relics with my own eyes.”
“In his novel, Brown proposes that Mary Magdalene married Jesus and bore him
a child. She was the Holy Grail for his blood and Jesus wanted her to succeed him
in leading his followers. The official Church, both Catholic and Orthodox, widely
disapproved of the book, calling it misleading.
“The holy relics, a particle of the Holy Cross and the palm of St. Mary
Magdalene, from Mount Athos were brought to Russia on Saturday. After Moscow
the relics will be moved to St. Petersburg and then to other cities from Siberia to
southern Russia.”

Culture. Mount Athos is also a major center for the gnostic tradition of hesychasm, which is a
Byzantine form of contemplative prayer directed toward ecstatic mystical experience. A practice
akin to Zen Buddhism and Hindu Yoga, hesychasm involves striving for 'inner stillness' as a
means to having visions of 'the divine light'.

"The monks of Mount Athos accepted Hesychasm. According to Gregory of Sinai,

the founder of hesychia, monks could see the ‘uncreated light of God’, the light that
shone about Christ at his Transfiguration on Mount Tabor, if they were virtuous
and devoted themselves exclusively to prayer, seated from morn to eve in the same
place, concentrating and repeating silently the prayer ‘Lord Jesus Christ have
mercy on me’. The hope that they could thus come close to God was perhaps a
reaction to the ever increasing external dangers and the collapse of the Byzantine
Empire." (1026)

The Philokalia is a five-volume collection of 'spiritual wisdom' in the Orthodox tradition that
was written between the 4th and 15th centuries by the 'Holy Fathers' of the Orthodox tradition
and preserved within Mount Athos monasteries. Co-edited by Bishop Kallistos Ware,
Philokalia: The Complete Text is a source book for the Orthodox on the practices of
Hesychasm, the Jesus Prayer, Nepsis or Inner Attention, Asceticism and Theosis, which is the
deification of man doctrine embraced by the Greek Orthodox Church. A book review of The
Philokalia reveals that the objective of repeating the Jesus Prayer is personal deification---the
Satanically-inspired lie, 'ye shall be as gods':

"The goal is to repeat without ceasing the Jesus Prayer, whether aloud or not.
Literally without ceasing. The prayer should revolve in the mind even while eating,
speaking with others, or sleeping. Thus perpetual communion with God, the
purpose of human existence, can be fulfilled. Theosis, deification, partaking of the
divine nature, gaining the divinity that God has extended to us, is the purpose of
 divine nature, gaining the divinity that God has extended to us, is the purpose of
practicing the Jesus Prayer in this way, just as it is the purpose of asceticism,
hesychasm, and other practices."

And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know
that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as
gods, knowing good and evil. - Gen. 3:4-5

The founder of hesychasm, Gregory of Sinai, also invented the 'Jesus Prayer', a 'monologistic'
prayer, which means praying ‘Lord Jesus Christ have mercy on me’ repeatedly and
contemplatively while seated in the same place. (In some Russian traditions the phrase “a
sinner” is added at the end.) Repeating this prayer from morning to evening is supposed to
fulfill Paul's command to 'pray without ceasing.'

Bishop Kallistos Ware has written and lectured extensively on the practice of hesychasm, which
originated at Mount Athos. His book, The Inner Kingdom, begins with a chapter on "Silence in
Prayer: the Meaning of Hesychia". In the year 2002, Ware was also a presenter for the John
Main Seminar, an annual event sponsored by the World Community for Christian Meditation. A
promotional piece for Bishop Ware's seminar presents a word-for-word description of the
hesychast technique:

"Countless Christians over the centuries have found a way of entry through
practicing the invocation of the Holy Name: in the West often through the repetition
of the name 'Jesus' on its own; in the East more commonly through a longer phrase,
such as 'Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.'" (572)

Apposite to Bishop Ware's leadership in the advocacy of hesychasm, one medieval Patriarch of
Constantinople by the name of 'Callistus' created an uproar in the Greek Orthodox Church when
he persecuted opponents of hesychasm:

"In the fourteenth century a pseudo-spiritualism akin to that of the ancient Euchites
or Messalians, culminating in the famous Hesychast controversies (see
HESYCHASM; PALAMAS), greatly disturbed the mutual harmony of Greek
monasteries, especially those of Mount Athos, one of whose monks, Callistus, had
become Patriarch of Constantinople (1350-54) and in that office exhibited great
severity towards the opponents of Hesychasm. Racial and national discord between
the Greeks and the Servians added fuel to the flames, and for a while the monks
were again subjected to the immediate supervision of the Bishop of Hierissus."
(548)

Literature. Before relocating to Mt. Athos to teach the monks the hesychast method of
contemplation, Gregory of Sinai belonged to the Monastery of St. Katherine at Mt. Sinai. It was
at this convent that the gnostic manuscript, Sinaiticus Aleph, was discovered by Constantin
Tischendorf in the 19th century. The Sinaiticus Aleph along with infamous Vaticanus B were
used by B.F. Westcott and F.J.A. Hort as the basis for their corrupt New Greek Text from
which modern versions of the Bible are translated.

Mount Athos was ever a hotbed of gnostic occultism. James H. Sightler, author of A Testimony
Founded Forever, sheds more light on the pivotal role of the Mount Athos monks in preserving
the Corpus Hermeticum,. These were the core documents of the Hermetic tradition which were
unavailable to the West in classical times but "rediscovered" in Athos during the Renaissance,
and delivered to Europe where they were translated and disseminated. Dr. Sightler is of the
and delivered to Europe where they were translated and disseminated. Dr. Sightler is of the
opinion that the Vaticanus B was also preserved at Mount Athos, and there is evidence that the
Codex Alexandrinus was found there as well.

"Frances Yates relates that a monk from Macedonia, Leonardo da Pistoria,

working for Cosmo de Medici, brought the Corpus Hermeticum to Florence about
1460, where it was translated by Marsilio Ficino. Michael Psellus knew of this
manuscript in his day in the eleventh century, and I believe that the Corpus
Hermeticum actually came from Mount Athos, which is a peninsula of Macedonia.
I say this because of the mystical and Hermetic influences in religious practice and
art on Athos which we have just noted, and I am also convinced that Codex B was
found there by Bessarion at just about the same time as the discovery of the Corpus
Hermeticum."
"...It is interesting that F.H.A. Scrivener's book, A Plain Introduction to the
Criticism of the New Testament, shows in its index 30 references to Mount Athos
covering 53 manuscripts which were found there. At the time of publication of this
book in 1883 about 650 New Testament Manuscripts had been found. Therefore
about eight per cent were from Athos. The index lists 5 ms. from Patmos, 20 from
St. Saba in Jerusalem, 16 from the monastery of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem,
20 from Jamina in Epirus, and 6 from St. Catherine on Mt. Sinai. For those
manuscripts whose origin is known, Mount Athos is the most frequent source...
Furthermore, Hatch's catalogue of uncials of 1939, cited previously, lists a total of
7 uncials from Athos, only 4 of which had been catalogued by Scrivener. Of these
6 are Byzantine and one, Codex Alexandrinus, is mixed. Scrivener states that
Wetstein, on the authority of Matthew Muttis, a deacon attached to Cyril Lukar,
believed that Cyril had obtained Codex A from Mount Athos... Foakes Jackson and
Kirsopp Lake agree with Scrivener and point out that Cyril was on Mount Athos in
1612-1613. I believe that Codex B as well had been removed from Athos l 50 years
before by Bessarion."...
"It is now no longer necessary to believe Tischendorf's claim that Codices B and
Aleph were once located and used in Constantinople. Jackson and Lake give the
opinion that Codex B 'was brought from Alexandria to Sicily by fugitives from the
conquering Arabs, in the seventh century, and thence to Calabria. Nothing is known
which suggests that it remained in the East until the fifteenth century and was then
brought to Rome under the influence of the revival of letters.'...
"Both B and Aleph were written in Egypt. I believe that both were there,
probably in Alexandria, in 640 A.D. when the Arabs under Amrou captured the city
after a siege of fourteen months. I believe they were removed by Egyptian
anchorites before the city fell and taken to the island of Crete to be kept, perhaps in
the famous Labyrinth cave, known from antiquity, by the monks and their
successors until 823 A.D. when the Saracens captured portions of the island. At that
time Codex B was taken to Mount Athos, where the earliest monastic
communities were just arising, or to Mistra. The Corpus Hermeticum could
have been carried along with it as well. Aleph was taken by other monks to Mt.
Sinai, where the monastery of St. Catherine had been built by Justinian in the
eighth century. These codices then remained in their respective places until
Bassarion took Codex B from Athos or Mistra in 1846 and Tischendorf retrieved
Aleph in 1859...
"At the Council of Florence Cosimo de Medici met Bassarion and his mentor,
Plethon, and was moved by them to back the establishment of a school at Florence
for the study and dissemination of Neo-Platonic philiosphy. Bassarion and Plethon
in 1442 founded the Academia Platonica at Florence. Cosimo provided funds for
 in 1442 founded the Academia Platonica at Florence. Cosimo provided funds for
the acquisition of rare manuscripts, including copies of the Corpus Hermeticum,
Plato, and Plutarch, as well a Biblical manuscripts. He later gave a villa at Careggi,
near Florence, to a student and colleague of Plethon and Bassarion, Marsilio
Ficino, who was the first to translate the Corpus, Plato and Platinus into Latin and
carried on the work of the academy." (350:128-33)

According to Ian Paisley's European Institute of Protestant Studies (EIPS), "Mount Athos
comes under the spiritual jurisdiction of the Patriarch of Constantinople, but enjoys the status of
a semi-autonomous republic within Greece. Not only was this spelt out in the Greek
constitution as recently as 1975, when Greece entered the European Union six years later the
monasteries were specifically excluded from the jurisdiction of EU equality legislation."
Unfortunately, the Mount Athos community has accepted "EU funds to help preserve both their
treasures and the fabric of the monasteries"--a compromise having major consequences: On
September 4, 2003 "A plenary session of the Euro-Parliament has passed a proposal-report
demanding that the Greek government rescind the special protection the monks have enjoyed
for a millennium."

This eventuality has the makings of an ecumenical uprising against the European Union and a
groundswell of support for the poor monks of Mount Athos. Which is precisely what the social
transformers have in mind to galvanize popular support for Joachim's mystical utopia---where
"the world would be one vast monastery, in which all men would be contemplative monks rapt
in mystical ecstasy..."

A New Order of Mystical Knighthood

Bishop Kallistos Ware is involved in a number of ecumenical initiatives the purpose of which is
to unite Protestant, Catholics and Orthodox, not along the lines of doctrinal beliefs, but through
an assimilation of the doctrinal (watered down to mere theism) into the mystical. For example,
Bishop Ware co-edited the aforementioned complete text of The Philokalia and also contributed
to James Cutsinger's book Paths to the Heart: Sufism and the Christian East, which is a
collection of essays by Greek Orthodox and Islamic spiritualists finding common ground in the
esoteric traditions of their respective religions.

This philosophy is termed the religio perennis, the 'eternal religion', which means that "every
religion has, besides its literal meaning, an esoteric dimension, which is essential, primordial
and universal." (1037) Frithjof Schuon, considered the foremost spokesman of religio perennis
and author of books such as The Transcendent Unity of Religions, calls this dialogue 'esoteric
ecumenism'.

"These commonalities suggest the possibility for a deeper kind of religious dialogue
than is customary in our day, a dialogue which seeks to foster what Frithjof Schuon
has called inward or 'esoteric' ecumenism, and which, while respecting the integrity
of traditional dogmas and rites, 'calls into play the wisdom which can discern the
one sole Truth under the veil of different forms'." (1027)

This strategy has been voiced by a number of leading figures in Protestantism, Catholicism and
Orthodoxy; in fact, these are the very personages with whom Bishop Ware is sharing platforms
in symposiums such as the Ecumenical Conference for Traditional Christians sponsored by
Touchstone Magazine. All of the presenters at this conference—Dom Laurence Freeman, a
Benedictine monk and Director of the World Center for Christian Meditation, J.I. Packer of
Renovare and Richard Neuhaus (Catholic priest/author, ECT Document), Harold O.J. Brown of
Renovare and Richard Neuhaus (Catholic priest/author, ECT Document), Harold O.J. Brown of
the UN/Mormon-affiliated World Congress of Families, James Cutsinger (mentioned above)
and others—are affiliated with heterodox organizations.

The John Main Seminar is an annual event held by the UK-based World Center for Christian
Mediation to "celebrates the life and teaching of the Benedictine monk whose life's work was
passing on the ancient practice of Christian Meditation." The seminar has in the past featured as
speakers the Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams, who is a member of the Order of
Druids; the Dalai Lama, the Buddhist High Priest; assorted Catholic priests; and Kallistos Ware,
who was presenter of the seminar in 2002.

"Bishop Kallistos of Diokleia (Timothy Ware) will lead the John Main Seminar
2002. He is a member of the Monastery of St. John the Theologian, Patmos, Greece
and one of the Assistant Bishops of the Orthodox Archdiocese of Thyateira and
Great Britain (under the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople).
"Since 1966, Bishop Kallistos has taught in the Faculty of Theology at Oxford
University and is a past chairman of the board of the theology department in
Oxford. Active in work for Christian unity, among his many charisms, Bishop
Kallistos also speaks French. His books include 'The Orthodox Church' and 'The
Orthodox Way', and he is co-translator of 'The Philokalia'. His latest book is 'The
Inner Kingdom', published in 2000...
[at end of page]:
"The World Community for Christian Meditation (WCCM) is an international
community that practices and teaches meditation in the Christian tradition in over
60 countries, some 25 meditation centres and a large number of meditation groups,
including just under 200 in Canada.
"The John Main Seminar is the Community's premiere annual event held in
honour of Dom John Main (1926-1982), the inspiration and founder of The World
Community for Christian Meditation. Recent Seminar presenters have included:
Archbishop Rowan Williams, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Professor Huston
Smith, Fr. Thomas Keating, Jean Vanier and Mary McAleese, President of Ireland.
The Seminar was last held in Canada in 1993 with William Johnston, S.J., as
speaker." (572)

Prior to the Archbishop of Canterbury's installation ceremony last year, Rowan Williams was
inducted into the Ancient Order of Druids. We suspect that the Church of England's affiliation
with the Druid Order is really nothing new; that all who have filled this high office of the
Church of England have been closet Druids. The Times article, "Why the Archbishop is
embracing pagan roots" by Ruth Gledhill, July 19, 2002, reported the event:

"...the new Archbishop of Canterbury will be inducted as a druid in a 200-year-old

ceremony with pagan roots in Wales next month. As the sun rises over a circle of
Pembrokeshire bluestones, the Archbishop of Wales, the Most Rev Dr Rowan
Williams, will don a long white cloak while druids chant a prayer to the ancient god
and goddess of the land. After a trumpet fanfare and the thrice partial sheathing and
unsheathing of a 6ft6in sword, a citation will be read. Dr Williams will close his
hands in prayer while the archdruid, wearing a crown and shield over his bardic
robes, will enfold them in his own and utter words of welcome. That will be the
moment that Dr Williams, who will adopt a new, bardic name, is accepted into the
white druidic order, the highest of three orders of the Gorsedd of Bards, the Welsh
body of poets, musicians, writers and artists. The Mistress of the Robes, Sian
Aman, will then clothe him in a druidic white headdress, and a steward will lead
 Aman, will then clothe him in a druidic white headdress, and a steward will lead
him to join the other assembled druids inside a sacred circle." (595)

The Dalai Lama, a presenter at the WCCM John Main Seminar in 1994, has of late been
conjuring evil spirits in Hitler's old stomping grounds in preparation for the Fourth Reich.
These rituals, which are detailed on a Buddhist education website, will hopefully give the reader
an idea of the teachings of the Dalai Lama at the John Main Seminars.

"On October 11-23, 2002, the Kalachakra for World Peace will take place in
Graz, Austria. Thousands of participants from over 30 nations are to be initiated
into tantric teachings by the Dalai Lama XIV. The event is being supported by the
Mayor of Graz and the Provincial and Federal Government in Austria. The
Kalachakra tantra ritual is the key initiation rite into tantric or Tibetan Buddhism. It
is a shamanistic process involving the conjuring of 722 spirits to be released over
the land.
"According to church leaders in Austria and Germany the Dalai Lama wants to
make Graz the pillar of a bridge for Buddhism into the Western world. Buddhists
prophesied that the next Dalai Lama will reincarnate in the Western world. In Graz
children shall be presented to the Dalai Lama, to see if the next dalai lama is
among them. According to some prayer leaders the rituals in Graz are linking into
the nazi mythology that was typical for Austria during the Third Reich. Graz at that
time was the main city embracing Hitler...
"The Kalachakra tantra ritual is the key initiation rite into tantric or Tibetan
Buddhism and is given over the course of 12 days. First, there are eight days of
preparatory rituals, during which monks make a mandala. The Dalai Lama presides
over the complex event, which, essentially, is a shamanistic process involving the
conjuring of 722 spirits through music, prayers, veneration, dances etc. These
spirits are invited to take up residence in the mandala, or spiritual house, which has
been built for them. The initiation event is completed when the Dalai Lama ritually
destroys the mandala after all meditation and initiatory rites have been completed.
The spirits are thereby released over the land while the initiates retain the spiritual
connection to Kalachakra and his world, having internalized them through
meditation. The sand from the mandala is poured into a nearby body of water; in
Graz, the river Mur, which flows from Austria to Slovenia - where the Dalai Lama
also starts his visits and preparations." (991)

In addition to his activities at the World Community for Christian Meditation, Kallistos Ware
has shared platforms with Benedictine monk, Dom Laurence Freeman of the John Main
Institute, J.I. Packer and Richard Neuhaus (authors of the ECT Document), Harold O.J. Brown
of the UN/Mormon-affiliated World Congress of Families and other Catholic and Evangelical
priests and apologists. The following brochure was published in Touchstone Magazine, a
Journal of the Greek Orthodox Fellowship of St. James, advertising a 1995 conference to
promote ecumenism among the Catholic, Protestant and Orthodox traditions. (Editor's

Not of This World:

An Ecumenical Conference for Traditional Christians

Co-sponsored by Rose Hill College and Touchstone

May 16-20, 1995

 Hosted by Rose Hill College (Aiken South Carolina)

Ecumenical gatherings are hardly unique, but they have too often
been excuses for dismantling the faith. This conference, "Not of
this World: An Ecumenical Conference for Traditional
Christians," tried something different: to test whether an
"ecumenical orthodoxy," solidly based upon the classic Christian
faith, can become the foundation for a unified and
transformative witness to the age we live in.

Leading theologians and other Christian scholars, who represent

a variety of affiliations and backgrounds, but who are alike in
their personal and intellectual commitment to the traditional
Christian faith, gathered to discuss whether they can together
defend and communicate their common faith in an increasingly
faithless world.

"Edited by a bevy of mainly younger Protestants, Orthodox, and

Roman Catholics, Touchstone advances an ecumenism of
orthodoxy defined by the Great Tradition. The Touchstone
people are bracingly conscientious and determined to follow
where the Spirit leads." - Richard John Neuhaus, Editor-in-
Chief, First Things [Roman Catholic]
 "Touchstone serves the most significant form of ecumenical
endeavor today: the rallying and coalescing of those in all the
churches who stand for doctrinal, moral, and devotional
orthodoxy. The fact that Touchstone exists to serve this purpose
gives it great importance." - J. I. Packer Author, Knowing God
[Anglican]

"Touchstone is a voice that greatly needs to be heard in today's

Christian world. If this is what robust ecumenism means, we
need more of it!" - Kallistos Ware, Bishop of Diokleia &
Spalding Lecturer in Eastern Studies at Oxford University
[Eastern Orthodox]

This alliance of Reformed, Roman Catholic and Orthodox traditions, which calls itself the
'Confessing Movement,' is appealing to all Christians, i.e. Protestant, Roman Catholic or
Orthodox, to embrace the teachings and practices of mysticism as authentic Christianity. Those
who practice Gnostic mysticism usually hide within the organized Church system and claim to
follow primitive Christianity. A.E. Waite wrote in The Hidden Church of the Holy Grail:

"...I should look assuredly to the East, in the direction of that pure catholic
gnosticism which lies like a pearl of great price within the...shell of external
Christianity, which is not of Marcion or Valentinus, or Cerenthus and all their
cohorts, but is the unexpressed mystery of experience in deep wells which issue no
strife or sects." - 179:681

Not Justification by Faith but Deification through the Divine Energies

According to Webster's Dictionary, mysticism is:

1. the experience of mystical union or direct communion with ultimate reality

reported by mystics; 2. the belief that direct knowledge of God, spiritual truth, or
ultimate reality can be attained through subjective experience (as intuition or
insight); 3. a vague speculation : a belief without sound basis b : a theory
postulating the possibility of direct and intuitive acquisition of ineffable knowledge
or power.

Mystics rely primarily on subjective experiences to formulate their beliefs about God, rather
than making Scripture the final authority in matters of faith and practice. The writings of
mystics may claim the primacy of Scripture, but in practice they ignore its finer points of
doctrine. For example, the following promotional for the John Main Seminar described the
mantra technique taught by Kallistos Ware for receiving visions of the divine light of God. The
use of mantras, however, is a direct violation of Christ's command: But when ye pray, use not
vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much
speaking. Mt. 6:7

"Countless Christians over the centuries have found a way of entry through
practicing the invocation of the Holy Name: in the West often through the repetition
of the name 'Jesus' on its own; in the East more commonly through a longer phrase,
such as 'Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.'
"This is a prayer in words; but, because the words are so few and so simple, they
reach beyond the words into silence; more exactly, they enable us to discover the
 reach beyond the words into silence; more exactly, they enable us to discover the
silence that is hidden in the heart of the words themselves.
"In the Seminar we shall explore the distant origins of the Jesus Prayer among
the Desert Fathers and Mothers of Egypt. We shall see how in Sinai and Mount
Athos the invocation of the Name came to be accompanied by a physical
technique, involving a positive use of the body. We shall learn also how, in the
experience of the saints, the Jesus Prayer brought them to the vision of the Divine
Light of Tabor.
"The Jesus Prayer is a prayer that all can use, requiring as it does no special
knowledge or elaborate preparation; yet it is a prayer that leads to the deepest
mysteries of contemplation. It is being practiced today more than ever in the past,
and is especially suited to our present age of anxiety. Because it is rooted in the
traditions of both the Christian East and the Christian West, it can serve as a
powerful instrument in our shared quest for unity. The practice of the Jesus Prayer
is akin to the teaching of Christian Meditation and other forms of the rich tradition
of Christian contemplative prayer." - Bishop Kallistos of Diokleia (572)

Pagans also use mantras for invoking spirits. It is probable that another Jesus is summoned by
repeating the name in an invocatory manner, since the real Jesus has forbidden mindless
repetitive forms of prayer. Kallistos Ware nevertheless avers that suspending one's mental
faculties and repeating the 'Jesus Prayer' leads to a vision of the Divine Light of Tabor. This
mystical experience in greater detail in Kallistos Ware's book, The Orthodox Way:

“…God is revealed as light above all at the Transfiguration of Christ on Mount

Tabor, when ‘his face shone as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light’
(Matt. 17:2). This divine light, seen by the three disciples on the mountain—seen
also by many of the saints during prayer—is nothing else than the uncreated
energies of God. This light of Tabor, that is to say, is neither a physical and
created light, nor yet a purely metaphorical ‘light of the intellect’. Although non-
material, it is nevertheless an objectively existent reality. Being divine, the
uncreated energies surpass our human powers of description; and so, in terming
these energies ‘light’, we are inevitably employing the language of ‘sign’ and
symbol. Not that the energies are themselves merely symbolical. They genuinely
exist, but cannot be described in words; in referring to them as ‘light’ we use the
least misleading term, but our language is not to be interpreted literally.” (633:127)

The gnostic strives for visions of the Divine Light, yet nowhere in Scripture is the believer led
down the path to mystical experiences. The reader is then admonished by Kallistos Ware that
his senses must be 'transformed' in order to see the light that is non-physical. This paranormal
activity is attributed to the indwelling Holy Spirit.

“Although non-physical, the divine light can be seen by a man through his physical
eyes, provided that his senses have been transformed by divine grace. His eyes do
not behold the light by the natural powers of perception, but through the power of
the Holy Spirit acting within him.” (633:127)

Through an ecstatic vision of the Divine Light of Tabor, Kallistos Ware claims the body is
deified. The doctrine of the 'deification of man' is central to Eastern Orthodox doctrine This
false doctrine of deification runs the gamut of false religions. Not only do the 'transformed' eyes
see the Divine Light, the body is permeated with it. This sounds suspiciously like demon
possession.
 “’The body is deified at the same time as the soul’ (St Maximus the Confessor).
He who beholds the divine light is permeated by it through and through, so that his
body shines with the glory that he contemplates. He himself becomes light.
Vladimir Lossky was not speaking merely in metaphors when he wrote: ‘The fire
of grace, kindled in the hearts of Christians by the Holy Spirit, makes them shine
like tapers before the Son of God.’ The Homilies of St Macarius affirm concerning
this transfiguration of man’s body:
“Just as the Lord’s body was glorified, when he went up the mountain and was
transfigured into the glory of God and into infinite light, so the saints’ bodies also
are glorified and shine as lightning… ‘The glory which thou hast given to me I
have given to them’ (John 17:22): just as many lamps are lit from one flame, so the
bodies of the saints, being members of Christ, must needs be what Christ is, and
nothing else… Our human nature is transformed into the power of God, and it is
kindled into fire and light.’
“…In the lives of the saints, Western as well as Eastern, there are numerous
examples of such bodily glorification… In The Sayings of the Desert Fathers we
are told how a disciple looked through the window of Abba Arsenius’ cell, and saw
the old man ‘like a flame of fire’. Of Abba Pambo, it is said, ‘God so glorified him
that no one could look at his face, because of the glory which his face had.’…
“…as Jacob Boehme puts it, ‘The darkness is not the absence of light, but the
terror that comes from the blinding light.’” (Bishop Kallistos Ware) - (633:128)

For theological support of the ecstatic experience of 'deification,' Bishop Ware appeals to
mystic monks and canonized saints as authorities, rather than Scripture—except to misapply the
Scriptures concerning the Transfiguration of Jesus Christ, who is Deity Himself. Jacob Boehme
(1575-1624), cited by Ware as a spiritual authority, was a German mystic whose writings were
a precursor to existentialist philosophy. Boehme directly influenced the German Romantics,
Hegel, Baader, and Schelling, and indirectly the existentialist philosophers Schopenhauer,
Nietzsche, Hartmann, Bergson, and Heidegger; Paul Tillich, Martin Buber and even Carl Jung.
Boehme's 'terror that comes from the blinding light' is a phenomenon peculiar to initiation rites.
Alice Bailey described this mystical experience in one of her many books channeled through
her spirit guide, Djwal Khul, titled Discipleship in the New Age. In the chapter 'Teachings on
Initiation' Bailey states:

"We come now to our second point, that initiation veils a secret and that the
revelation of that secret is imminent. Just what this secret is, I may not reveal, but it
is concerned with a peculiar type of energy which can be induced at a moment of
supreme tension. The only possible hint I can give you in connection with this
mysterious matter is that it is closely related to the 'Blinding Light' which Saul of
Tarsus saw on the road to Damascus and the 'blinding light' which accompanied the
discharge of energy from the atomic bomb. The 'Blinding Light' which ever
accompanies true conversion (a rare and sudden happening always when true and
real) and which is an attendant demonstration of all Lives who have passed the
human stage of consciousness - according to their degree - and the light which is
released by the fission of the atom are one and the same expression on different
levels of consciousness, and are definitely related to the processes and effects of
initiation. This will not even make sense to you until certain initiate-experiences
have been undergone by you. It is not easy for the average aspirant to realize that
progressive stages upon the Path indicate a progressive ability to 'take the Light.'
When the aspirant prays in the new Invocation: 'Let Light descend on Earth' he is
invoking something which humanity will have to learn to handle; this is one of the
 invoking something which humanity will have to learn to handle; this is one of the
things for which the disciples of the world must begin to prepare the race of men."
(1028)

By way of comparison to Bishop Ware's meditative technique, we will now consider an extract
from Aleister Crowley's book, Magick in Theory and Practice, Chapter XV titled "Of the
Invocation". Note the elements common to 'Christian mystical' and 'Satanic magick' rituals of
invocation—forgetfulness, total passivity, letting oneself go, mantras suitable to the gods, the
blinding light (Lucifer), transformation of the body and union with God—after which Crowley
correctly observes "there is no distinction between magick and meditation"!!

"In the straightforward or 'Protestant' system of Magick... The Magician

addresses a direct petition to the Being invoked. But the secret of success in
invocation has not hitherto been disclosed. It is an exceedingly simple one. It is
practically of no importance whatever that the invocation should be 'right'. There
are a thousand different ways of compassing the end proposed, so far as external
things are concerned. The whole secret may be summarised in these four words:
"Enflame thyself in praying." This is Qabalistically expressed in the old Formula:
Domine noster, audi tuo servo! kyrie Christe! O Christe! [Our Lord, hear your
servant! Come Christ! O Christ!]
"The mind must be exalted until it loses consciousness of self. The Magician
must be carried forward blindly by a force which, though in him and of him, is by
no means that which he in his normal state of consciousness calls I. Just as the
poet, the lover, the artist, is carried out of himself in a creative frenzy, so must it be
for the Magician...
"Every Magician must compose his ceremony in such a manner as to produce a
dramatic climax. At the moment when the excitement becomes ungovernable, when
then the whole conscious being of the Magician undergoes a spiritual spasm, at that
moment must he utter the supreme adjuration.
"One very effective method is to stop short, by a supreme effort of will, again
and again, on the very brink of that spasm, until a time arrives when the idea of
exercising that will fails to occur. This forgetfulness must be complete; it is fatal to
try to 'let oneself go' consciously.
"Inhibition is no longer possible or even thinkable, and the whole being of the
Magician, no minutest atom saying nay, is irresistibly flung forth. In blinding light,
amid the roar of ten thousand thunders, the Union of God and man is consummated.
"If the Magician is still seen standing in the Circle, quietly pursuing his
invocations, it is that all the conscious part of him has become detached from the
true ego which lies behind that normal consciousness. But the circle is wholly filled
with that divine essence; all else is but an accident and an illusion.
"The subsequent invocations, the gradual development and materialization of the
force, require no effort. It is one great mistake of the beginner to concentrate his
force upon the actual stated purpose of the ceremony. This mistake is the most
frequent cause of failures in invocation.
"A corollary of this Theorem is that the Magician soon discards evocation
almost altogether --- only rare circumstances demand any action what ever on the
material plane. The Magician devotes himself entirely to the invocation of a god;
and as soon as his balance approaches perfection he ceases to invoke any partial
god; only that god vertically above him is in his path. And so a man who perhaps
took up Magick merely with the idea of acquiring knowledge, love, or wealth, finds
himself irrevocably committed to the performance of The Great Work.
 "It will now be apparent that there is no distinction between magick and
meditation except of the most arbitrary and accidental kind. There is the general
metaphysical antithesis that Magick is the Art of the Will-to-Live, Mysticism of the
Will-to-Die; but --- 'Truth comes bubbling to my brim; Life and Death are one to
Him!'.
"Beside these open methods thee are also a number of mental methods of
Invocation, of which we may give three.
"The first method concerns the so-called astral body. The Magician should
practise the formation of this body as recommended in Liber O, and learn to rise on
the planes according to the instruction given in the same book, though limiting his
'rising' to the particular symbol whose God he wishes to invoke.
"The second is to recite a mantra suitable to the God.
"The third is the assumption of the form of the God --- by transmuting the astral
body into His shape. This last method is really essential to all proper invocation,
and cannot be too sedulously practised." (1011)

Crowley stated that the end of this ceremony, and indeed of all ritual magick, is the 'Great
Work', which means the unification of the Microcosm (initiate) with the Macrocosm (Lucifer).
In other words, demon possession.

In Volume III of his series, The Spiritual Man, Watchman Nee warned against the spiritual
dangers of passivity in the believer, which opens the door to altered states of consciousness and
possession by demonic spirits.

"What primarily precipitates the enemy's invasion among the 'heathen' and among
carnal Christians is wilful sin; but 'the primary cause of deception ... in surrendered
believers may be condensed into one word, passivity; that is, a cessation of the
active exercise of the will in control over spirit, soul and body, or either, as may be
the case.' The organ of volition ceases to choose and decide matters referred to it.
'The word passivity simply describes the opposite condition to activity; and in the
experience of the believer it means, briefly, (1) loss of self-control in the sense of
the person himself controlling each, or all, of the departments of his personal being;
and (2) loss of freewill in the sense of the person himself exercising his will as the
guiding principle of personal control, in harmony with the will of God.' The
passivity of a saint arises out of the non-use of his various talents. He has a mouth
but refuses to talk because he hopes the Holy Spirit will speak through it. He has
hands but will not engage them since he expects God to do it. He does not exercise
any part of his person but waits for God to move him. He considers himself fully
surrendered to God; so he no longer will use any element of his being. Thus he falls
into an inertia which opens the way for deception and invasion." (1012)

The Lord Jesus also warned of the dangers of states of passivity. Luke 11 records the manner in
which Jesus taught His disciples to pray and His exhortation to ask for the Holy Spirit, with
simple faith they would receive precisely whatever they request of the Father. No vain
repetitions, no transformed senses, no visions of divine light, only humble believing prayer. In
fact, Jesus sternly admonished those who were seeking after signs and wonder, calling such men
an 'evil generation'. Our Lord also included a concise teaching on how to protect oneself against
demon possession. Having been delivered from the power of Satan, the Christian must guard
himself against any spiritual practice which would produce an altered state of consciousness.

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places,
seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came
 seeking rest; and finding none, he saith, I will return unto my house whence I came
out. And when he cometh, he findeth it swept and garnished. Then goeth he, and
taketh to him seven other spirits more wicked than himself; and they enter in, and
dwell there: and the last state of that man is worse than the first. Luke 11:24-26

The House of Vere

Is Kallistos Ware the False Prophet? If he would exercise all the power of the Antichrist, per
Revelation 13:12, the False Prophet must be a member of the Merovingian bloodline.
Previously mentioned is the fact that Godfroi de Bouillon—the first Grand Master of the
Knights Templar who captured Jerusalem in 1099—was a member of the Merovingian de Vere
bloodline. According to Dagobert's Revenge website, the exalted pedigree of this bloodline
requires an organization whose sole purpose to protect its purity and perpetuity:

"...The Holy Grail itself was Elven as was Jesus himself, complete with his
Crown of Fairy Thorns, depicted as the headgear of Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon in
the 12th century...
"The Dragon Court exists as an organization solely for the bloodline descendants
of the ancient Vere family — the senior bloodline successors as a Scythian-
Merovin, Elven House of Princess Maelasanu—and for those whose bloodlines are
extracted from this descent and its ancient Dragon Court." (342:5)

As King Arthur's Dragon Court was originally comprised of twenty-four knights, there are
currently twenty-four families representing the Rex Deus group and the Dragon Court. These
are supposedly descendants of Israel's twenty-four priestly families; they reign, but do not yet
rule, as occult priest kings. As stated, the Dragon Court exists to protect the descendants of the
ancient Vere family of the Merovingian bloodline, out of which will eventually come the
Antichrist. [See: Antichrist in Virgo] Prince Nicholas de Vere von Drakenberg is currently the
Sovereign Grand Master of the Imperial and Royal Dragon Court & Order.

The Druidic Council of Elders are represented by the Dragon Court, which is comprised of
twenty-six members of royalty from Eurasian countries that help comprise the European
Council of Princes. These twenty-six members will be a false twenty-four elders plus the
Antichrist and False Prophet. The Druidic head dragon king (Pendragon), which has historically
been called the 'King of Kings', will be the Antichrist. [See Heeding Bible Prophecy: New
Government: Dragon Court: Dragon King/Pendragon)

Also previously documented in Antichrist in Virgo is the fact that Pierre Plantard de Saint-Clair
and his son, Thomas, the former and current Grand Masters of the Prieuré de Sion, descended
from Godfroi de Vere de Bouillon, the first Grand Master of the Prieuré de Sion. Laurence
Gardner identified the Plantard bloodline as a branch of the House of Vere in "Realm of the
Ring Lords":

"The Plantagenets were themselves a junior branch of the House of Anjou, whose
senior branch was the House of Vere [whose] ancestry was jointly Pictish and
Merovingian descending from the ancient Grail House of Scythia." (248:8)

Kallistos Ware would also be a member of the Merovingian Vere bloodline. The following are
variations of the Vere surname found in different countries and various dialects. For example,
Weir is a Scottish form of Vere, the Old English Wer is related to Old Norse ver, Were is Old
Frisian, Wehr/Weir is German, etc.
 VERE / WEIR: Vere, de Ver, Ver, de Ver, Veer, Vear(e), Veir, Veyre, Vare,
Veary, Very, Vary, Vire, Revere, Sver(e), Svar, Shpere, Spear(e), Spere, Svear,
Fere, Fear, Fairy; Ware, Wayer, Waer, Weyir, Weyr, Weir(e), Weier, Wear, Weary,
Wehre, Werre, Weer, Werr, Wyre

Apropos to these wolves in sheep's clothing, the werewolf is also derived from this surname.

WEREWOLF. \Were"wolf`\, n.; pl. {Werewolves}. [AS. werwulf; wer a man +

wulf a wolf; cf. G. w["a]rwolf, w["a]hrwolf, wehrwolf, a werewolf, MHG.
werwolf. [root]285. See {Were} a man, and {Wolf}, and cf. {Virile}, {World}.]
A person transformed into a wolf in form and appetite, either temporarily or
permanently, whether by supernatural influences, by witchcraft, or voluntarily; a
lycanthrope. Belief in werewolves, formerly general, is not now extinct. (868)

Prominent names related to the Vere/Weir bloodline are found at the highest levels of the
various sectors of society:

Economy: Warburg (Banking), Verifone (Mondex)

Education: B.J. Weir (Transgenics), Virgil, Thomas Weir (Sorcerer of Edinburgh),
Weir Hall (Yale)
Environment: James H. Ware (Public Health), Bruce Weir (Human Genome
Project), Lance Ware (Biological Weapons/Founder of Mensa)

Weyher (Pioneer Fund), Weirton Steel, Verimark (Communications)
Religion: Bruce A. Ware (Apologetics), Henry Ware (Unitarian Church founder),
B.B. Warfield (Bible), Bishop Kallistos (Timothy) Ware (Anglican/Eastern
Orthodox), Weyerhauser (founded Fuller Theological School of Psychology),
Thomas A. Weir (Masonic High Priest), John Ferguson Weir (Skull & Bones '83),
Weirus (16th c. Sorcerer)

King James I opened his book, The Daemonologie, with mention of a German occultist named
Weirus: "...WIERUS, a German Phisition, sets out a publick apologie for all these crafts-folks,
wherby, procuring for their impunitie, he plainely bewrayes himselfe to have bene one of that
profession."

It is also noteworthy that President George Bush is also a member of the Merovingian Vere
bloodline. [See Heeding Bible Prophecy: Ancestry of George W. Bush]

The name Vere means 'Truth'. In the French language, the word for 'truth' is 'vérité'; German is
'verdad'; Italian is 'verità'; Latin is 'veritas'---the newspaper of William Cooper who is a close
relative of the Antichrist. [See: Antichrist in Virgo]

Brother Truth?

The motto of the Theosophical Society founded by Helena P. Blavatsky, states: "There is no
religion higher than truth." In her tomes, The Secret Doctrine and Isis Unveiled, Blavatsky
remonstrated against the revealed truth of Scripture and pontificated on her version of truth
remonstrated against the revealed truth of Scripture and pontificated on her version of truth
which is based in the ancient wisdom texts. This 'mother of the New Age' preached that all
ideas — whatever their source — should be tested against one's knowledge, experience, and
intuition, as if these subjective factors were reliable determinants of truth. As perceived by the
occultist, truth is God, however, as Peter Dawkins expressed in Arcadia, the occultist wallows
in his own reasonings about God rather than acknowledging the truth of Scripture: "Through
thinking man comes to understand and eventually, through thought put into action, to know
truth - to know God." (889:113) Thomas Paine stated it more succinctly: "My own mind is my
own church."

The occult version of the 'Truth' embraces the falsehood that Lucifer is God; Aleister Crowley
referred to him as "Lord God the Devil." The corollary to this fallacy is the belief that Lucifer
will defeat Jesus Christ in a final battle, when the armies of the Antichrist are arrayed against
Him and His heavenly armies. The occultist, of course, derives his understanding of the 'Truth'
from communication with Lucifer, the "father of lies," and his hosts of lying spirits. However,
Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life, not Lucifer. Truth is to be found in Scripture
alone; specifically Psalm 2 and Revelation 20, accurately foretell the outcome of the
Antichrist's battle against Jesus Christ.

Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas state in The Second Messiah concerning Roslyn Chapel
in Scotland, "when Rosslyn is excavated the truth will conquer all." These Masonic authors
claim to have "uncovered the origins of Freemasonry which showed how modern Masonic
rituals developed from those once used by the Jerusalem Church and later developed by the
famous Crusader Order of the Knights Templar." Knight and Lomas further suggest that the
high priests of the Jerusalem Church assumed the names of the major angels—7 angels to be
exact.

"The twenty-eighth degree of the 'Knight of the Sun' claims that it is the Key of
Masonry... The degree describes all the Masonic symbols, and the overall purpose
is given as the inculcation of truth. A lecture on truth is delivered in sections by
nine officers who are called Thrice Perfect Father Adam, Brother Truth, Michael,
Gabrielle, Raphael, Zaphriel, Camael, Azrael and Uriel. Over the entrance to the
chamber where the degree is conferred is written: 'Ye who have not the power to
subdue passion, flee from this place of truth'.
"The last seven names used in this degree are those of the major angels. The
Frenchman who told the story of the two schools of Jerusalem at the time of Jesus
said that the high priests of Yahweh used these names for themselves. Perhaps as
the new high priesthood of Yahweh, the Knights Templar also took these names.
"...The emphasis on 'truth' brought back to mind the sole inscription in Rosslyn
[Chapel] that reads: '...truth will conquer all'." (96:14)

These nine officers of Masonry were probably intended to correspond to the original nine
knights of the Order of the Temple, who also prefigure the Council of Nine which will rule the
New World Order: the Antichrist, False Prophet and seven planetary angels. When he comes to
power, the Antichrist will be known as the Third Adam (the first and second Adam being the
heavenly Adam-Kadmon and fallen, earthly Adam respectively). Second in command, the False
Prophet, will be affectionately called Brother Truth, and will be a religious figure who interprets
the Law. Significantly, members of monastic orders refer to each other as 'Brother'. Kallistos
Ware, a Greek Orthodox monk whose surname means "Truth" is a fitting candidate for the
office of False Prophet.
According to The Hiram Key: Pharaohs, Freemasons and Discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls,
"God...will save his people by the hands of two messianic figures who arise at the end of time;
one from 'Branch of David', and the other 'The Interpreter of the Law'." (162:201) These two
figures answer to the Antichrist and False Prophet who will pose as the saviors of Israel and the
world. We have demonstrated that the most likely candidate for Antichrist, Thomas Plantard de
Saint Claire, will present himself as the 'Branch'. As the right hand man of the Antichrist, the
False Prophet will function as the high priest who interprets the laws of his pagan religious
system.

And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and
he spake as a dragon. - Rev. 13:11

The reference to the False Prophet having 'two horns like a lamb' may refer to Bishop Kallistos
Ware's leadership in both the Anglican and Eastern Orthodox churches, both apostate forms of
the true Christian faith. 'He spake as a dragon' would refer to the False Prophet's descent from
the Dragon race, the Merovingian bloodline.

And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth
and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was
healed. And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from
heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth
by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast;
saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast,
which had the wound by a sword, and did live. And he had power to give life unto
the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that
as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he
causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in
their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he
that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Here is
wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the
number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six. - Rev. 13:11-
18

Subordinate to the Antichrist (Father Adam) and the False Prophet (Brother Truth) will be a
counterfeit Michael the Archangel who presides over the seven planetary angels, who will be
the seven kings who rule under the Antichrist. In ancient Egypt, "...Hermes Trismegestus taught
the idea of the seven governors of the world, planetary angels..." (350:115)

"...the Gnostics derived some of their lore from the stellar religion practiced by the
Chaldean astrologers. They adopted the seven planetary spirits or gods...
represented by the classical gods of Roman and Greek mythology—Mercury
(Hermes), Venus (Aphrodite), Mars (Aries), Jupiter (Zeus), Saturn (Chronos), Sol
and Luna. In Gnostic belief these gods were transformed into archangels who
became the central focus of medieval magic and the Hermetic tradition." (25:24)

J.R.R. Tolkein's Trilogy, The Lord of the Rings, presages this angelic Council of Nine which
will rule the world. Note in the following statement which appears in Laurence Gardner's Realm
of the Ring Lords, that the Lord of the Rings is the Sun-god, and that this person corresponds to
the Beast that rises out of the cosmic sea in Rev.13:1, aka the Antichrist. Next in position was
the planetary god of the Earth, corresponding to the "Beast that rises out of the earth" - And I
beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he
spake as a dragon. (Rev. 13:11)
 spake as a dragon. (Rev. 13:11)

"In Ring Lore...[he] who held the Ninth Ring, the One Ring was Lord of the Rings.
In ancient times, the One Ring was representative of the overlordship of the Sun,
with the other key Eight Rings representing the planetary kingdoms of Earth,
Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Mercury." (722:271 ff.6)

Nicholas de Vere, Sovereign Grand Master of the Dragon Court, informs us that the surname
'Vere' means vampire which means overlord, and that both derive from the Sanskrit word,
Aryan, which means Lord:

"If spelt literally vampire would be uavber, uauber, or uaupir , which is the central
European oupire or oupere. These variants stem from the Sanskrit upari (Up-Ari or
Up-Arya, meaning Over-Lord)... Over (ME-ouere) began a graphic variant of uuere
which translates into the dynastic name Vere with the Latin V being
interchangeable with the double U for hard Germanic W which became V—
rendering Ver or Were." (353:4)

There is in fact, at present, an earthly Council of Nine in France which appears to be headed by
the Prieuré de Sion. The reader will recall that the Prieuré de Sion is located in Paris. A
prominent occultist of the early twentieth century, R. Swinburne Clymer who directed the the
oldest Rosicrucian body in the U.S.—the Fraternitas Rosae Crucis—claimed that his
organization was directed by a Council of Nine in France. Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince
reprinted the Council of Nine's directive in The Stargate Conspiracy:

"Clymer claimed that the doctrines of his society were endorsed by a secret
order that directed it from France—called the Council of Nine. He published a
letter from them in 1932, which proclaimed: 'This is the New Dispensation, and the
work of the Spiritual and Mystical Fraternities must be reestablished around the
world, so that all peoples may be taught the Law and thereby enabled to apply it
towards universal improvement as the only means of saving mankind... We, the
Council of Nine, have selected your organization, as one of the oldest in America
to help to this work.'
"This letter was signed by the excessively immodest 'Comte M. de St Vincent,
Premier Plenipotentiary of the Council of Nine of the Confraternities of the
World.'... Another title of the Council of Nine, according to Clymer, was the 'Secret
School'." (268:288)

Callisto, the Great Bear

"Like Ursa Minor, Ursa Major is neither a dipper or a bear. Rather it is

the greater sheepfold, as pictured in the most ancient planispheres or
zodiacs of the various nations... "Other stars in Ursa Major are El
Alcola, 'The Sheepfold'; Cab'd al Asad, 'Multitude of the Assembled';
El Kaprah, 'The Protected,' or in Hebrew 'The Redeemed' or
'Ransomed.' A more familiar star, Callisto, again means 'The
Sheepfold.'..." (D. James Kennedy) (872:114)

Not only does Bishop Ware fit the description of 'Brother Truth,' his assumed name upon
entrance to monastic life was 'Kallistos', the Greek form of the Roman Callisto, which is the
Great Bear/Ursa Major constellation.
 CALLISTO (2) f Roman Mythology
Roman form of KALLISTO. A moon of Jupiter bears this name. (664)

KALLISTO f Greek Mythology, Ancient Greek

Derived from Greek kallistos meaning "most
beautiful". In Greek mythology Kallisto was a
nymph who was loved by Zeus. She was changed
into a she-bear by Hera, and subsequently became
the Great Bear constellation. This was also an
ancient Greek personal name. (665)

Teachers of the false 'gospel in the stars', have misled their readers that Callisto, one of the stars
in Ursa Major, means "Sheepfold." However, this star was named after a Roman lesbian
goddess, Callisto, whose name means "most beautiful".

Callisto - “Most beautiful; a title of Artemis as totemic She-Bear and mother of

Arcas, the Little Bear.” (Greek Myth) / kallistos (663)

In Greek mythology, Callisto was the daughter of King Lycaon II and a nymph of Artemis, the
Roman Diana, to whom she made a vow of chastity. Callisto, however, was seduced by Jupiter
(the Roman Zeus) and turned into a bear, either by Zeus, Hera or Diana, depending on which
version is read.

"In Greek mythology Callisto, daughter of King Lycaon (wolf), was chosen as a
young child to be one of Artemis's companions. Now Artemis was Apollo's sister,
patroness of childbirth and protector of babies and of suckling animals. The one
thing she prized above all was her chastity; she even asked Zeus for eternal
virginity, which he granted.
"Artemis gathered about her a number of young nymphs. Reflecting her own
vows of chastity, she also required complete fidelity from these young women
(girls actually, who would grow into womanhood). One of these was Callisto.
"Zeus had the habit of seducing young maidens, and eventually he got around to
Callisto. When Artemis discovered that Callisto was pregnant, she took her
revenge. Artemis loved to hunt; she would take her revenge in the chase. So she
changed Callisto into a bear...
"So Artemis's plan was to have Callisto, as a bear, hunted down and killed. But
Zeus took pity, and sent Callisto to the heavens, keeping the same form of a bear.
Her son Arcas would grow up to be the ancestral founder of the Arcadians, before
he too joined his mother in the heavens as Ursa Minor." (666)

Zeus/Jupiter, the son of Saturn/Chronos, was the king of Atlantis whose offspring with Callisto
was Arcas, the founder of the Greek Arcadia, ancient home of the Merovingians. The term
lycanthropy derives from the mythical King of Arcadia, Lycaon, whom Zeus turned into a wolf
for performing child sacrificing with his fifty sons. Recall that Danaus, who had fifty daughters,
was made king of Argos after Apollo (twin brother of Artemis), disguised himself as a wolf and
terrorized the inhabitants of this city.

"Occultly," wrote Blavatsky, "lycanthropy means the same as 'were-wolf', the psychological
faculty of certain sorcerers to appear as wolves." (316:193-4) It was in ancient Greece that the
cult of the werewolf originated. In his book, The Sirius Mystery, Robert Temple associates the
wolf with the Dog Star Sirius, where the gods reside, and fifty daughters or sons in Greco-
Egyptian mythology with fifty celestial thrones orbiting Sirius:
 Egyptian mythology with fifty celestial thrones orbiting Sirius:

"The element of the wolf, sometimes substituted for a dog in the Sirius tradition of
the Dog Star, is important. It is an obvious European substitute for the non-existent
jackal of Anubis. It was from this changing of the jackal into the wolf through
adaptation to the European clime that those peculiar wolf traditions arose in Arcadia
which developed in pre-classical times into the werewolf concepts. Human blood-
sucking vampires,...and lycanthropy of werewolves all luxuriated in the wilds of
Arcady among the Pelasgian survivors in pre-classical Greece after the Dorian
invasion... What is a werewolf? It is a man's body with a wolf's head.... And the
temples of Wolfish (or Lycian) Apollo, were not altogether rare in Greece. Aristotle's
famous school of Athens, the Lyceum, was in the grounds of the Lycian Apollo's
temple just outside the Athens Gate of Diochares...
"...what was really meant to be significant about Danaos's progeny was not their sex
but their number of fifty. And from Pindar we see that they were on fifty thrones. The
fact that Aegyptos of Egypt had fifty sons as well and that Danaos's daughters...taught
the Egyptian mysteries to the Greeks all indicates that what transpired was a
transplanting from Egypt to Greece of the all-important tradition to be common to
both countries from then on--the fifty linked with the Dog Star Sirius and as celestial
thrones. In other words, the mystery of the orbit of Sirius B around Sirius A in its fifty
celestial steps." (942:167-169)

Kenneth Grant, Grand Master of the Ordo Templis Orientalis (OTO), wrote of the Merovingians'
affinity for the goddess Diana: "According to Lynn Picknett and Clive Prince, the authors of The
Templar Revelation, '...the Merovingian kings, from their founder Merovee to Clovis (who
converted to Christianity in 496) were 'pagan kings of the cult of Diana'.' Picknett and Prince got
this information from the Dossiers Secrets of the Priory of Sion." (571) To Diana, the huntress and
goddess of wild places, all animals were sacred; for this reason, Diana is sometimes artistically
portrayed running with wolves.
It is noteworthy that Convents of the Prieuré de Sion for selection of Grand Master are always held
in the wolf-month, which is January: "The Anglo-Saxons called [January] the wulfmonath, the
wolf month, and many European sightings of 'werewolves' take place during this season." (668)
Robert Graves stated in The White Goddess that January is named after the bisexual god
Janus/Jana, who is also Dianus or Diana. "...Janus was really the oak-god Dianus who was
incarnate in the King of Rome..." - (406:69)

Recall that Janus/Dianus is the also Roman variant of 'John/Jean', the esoteric name of the Grand
Masters of the Prieuré de Sion. Janus is also an hermaphrodite, i.e., male-female: "In the
Saturnalia, Macrobius says that January is dedicated to Janus as December is dedicated to Saturn,
and so Janus is the new god who reigns at the end of the Saturnalia. He also says that Janus is two-
faced because he is a fusion of Artemis and Apollo (i.e., Sun and Moon, Janus and Jana = Dianus
and Diana); thus he corresponds to the alchemical hermaphrodite..." (983)

Diana required of her band of nymphs a vow of chastity; as related in Ovid's Fasti: “Among the
Hamadryads(2) in the train of the archeress Diana one of the sacred band was Callisto. Laying her
hand on the bow of the goddess, 'Thou bow,' quoth she, 'which thus I touch, bear witness to my
virginity.' Cynthia approved the vow, and said, 'Keep but thy plighted troth(3) and thou shalt be the
foremost of my company.'” (916)

Callisto's chastity may have had little or nothing to do with sexual purity. There is a common
perception among neo-pagans that the goddess Diana's loyal band were lesbians. In the lesbian
subculture, virginity means strict avoidance of sexual relations with men only. It also seems to
subculture, virginity means strict avoidance of sexual relations with men only. It also seems to
have been true in ancient Greece that the rule of "chastity" did not apply to relations between
women, since ancient Greek society was male-centered.

Callisto is also the name of one of Jupiter's 4 major moons. The other three, Ganymede, Io and
Europa, are named after deities associated with the Grail legend. As moons of Jupiter, Callisto and
Ganymede, are considered fraternal twins although this relationship does not hold true in
mythology.

"Galileo's orbital tour of Jupiter's 16 moons, focusing on the four majors - Io, the most
volcanically-active body known; frozen Ganymede, largest moon in the Solar System
with a surface temperature of minus 150 degrees; Callisto, Ganymede's crater-scarred
twin; and Europa, icy world with a possible sub-surface ocean that may contain extra-
terrestrial life. Jupiter and its moons are a mini solar system." (667)

According to J.R. Church, Ganymede was a descendant of Dardanus, the founder of Troy, the
ancient home of the Merovingians. The king of the gods, Zeus, appointed Ganymede to be
cupbearer to the gods and, for his service, granted him immortality. Ganymede is therefore
regarded as keeper of the Grail:

"According to the ancient Greek treatise, THE ILIAD, by Homer, the founder of
Troy was named Dar-dan-us. The name is strikingly familiar. It contains the name of
Dan! It was said that Dardanus was the son of Zeus. Dardanus had a son named
Erichthonius, who had a son named Tros, who was the namesake of the ancient
Trojans and of their capital city, Troy.
"Tros had three sons, Ilus, Ganymede, and Assaracus. Priam, the reigning king of
the Trojans, was of the line of Ilus. Aeneas, founder of the Roman Empire, as a prince
of the royal house of Assaracus. Ganymede was the great-grandson of Dardanus, the
founder of Troy. According to Homer's ILIAD (Book V), 4. Zeus kidnapped the
prince, Ganymede. Zeus wanted Ganymede to be a special cup-bearer to the gods
(which may be a clue to the origin of the legend of the so-called Holy Grail).
"The ILIAD does not relate how Zeus carried off Ganymede, but there is an ancient
Roman mosaic showing Ganymede, the Trojan prince, being carried off by Zeus, who
had taken the form of an eagle! Here is a possible clue to connect the progenitors of
the ancient Trojans with the tribe of Dan, who had adopted the eagle as their insignia."
(127:103)

Jupiter's moon, Io, was, in ancient mythology, one of the three main ancestors of all royal
houses. Io was the ancestor of Danaus who became king of Argos. A native of Argos, Io was
seduced by Zeus and turned into a cow by his jealous wife, Hera. Io wandered to Egypt where
she gave birth to Epaphus 1 who became king of Egypt and father of Libya. Io's descendants
were Agenor 1, Belus 1, the father of Danaus, and Lelex 2.

"In the Psalter of Cashel it states that: 'The Tuatha de Danaan ruled in Ireland for
about two centuries, and were highly skilled in architecture and other arts from
their long residence in Greece'. The Tuatha de Danaan were the descendants of
Danaus, the son of Belus, who went with his fifty daughters to Argos, the home of
his ancestrous Io. In Irish legends the Tuatha de Danaan, who were considered to
be demigods,...were said to have possessed a...Grail-like vessel... These teachers of
Wisdom...were the founders of the Druidic priesthood." (258:142)
Another major moon of the Jovian system, Europa, was, in Greek mythology, kidnapped by
Zeus, and was never found. Europa was fathered by Agenor, the grandson of Io and uncle of
Danaus, the king of Argos.

"Agenor 1 was by birth an Egyptian, but he departed to Phoenicia and reigned

there. According to some Agenor 1 is the son of Poseidon and Libya, but others
affirm that his parents were Belus 1 and Anchinoe.
"King Belus 1 of Egypt was son of Poseidon and Libya, and was also the father
of Aegyptus 1 and Danaus 1... His mother Libya was, in turn, daughter of Epaphus
1 and Memphis 2. And King Epaphus 1 of Egypt, from whom sprang the Libyans
and the Ethiopians, was the founder of the city of Memphis in Egypt and the son of
Zeus and Io, the girl who was once turned into a cow, but who is one of the Three
Main Ancestors." (993)

The naming of Europe after this Phoenician princess, who originated in Greece and fled to
Egypt, indicates the extraordinary influence of Greek culture on the continent of Europe---her
literature, music, sculpture, painting and other applied arts. The famous English Romantic poet,
Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792-1822) wrote: "We are all Greeks. Our laws, our literature, our
religion, our arts, have their root in Greece." Like many poets of his day, Shelley employed
mythological themes and figures from Greek poetry to challenge Christian values.

Thus, the names 'Ware/Vere' and 'Kallisto/Great Bear' betray an association with the
Merovingian bloodline as symbolized by the Plantard family crest, which features twin bears
representing the Great Bear and Little Bear constellations, Ursa Major/Ursa Minor. The crest, as
esoterically interpreted by Kenneth Grant, symbolizes the Typhonian/Draconian bloodline of the
Merovingians:

"In his book Outer Gateways

Kenneth Grant writes: 'In The
Holy Blood and The Holy Grail,
the authors reproduce the family
crest of Clan Plantard, the
contemporary representative of
which was, until recently, the
Grand Master of the Prieure de
Sion, an Order which, according
to Lincoln, dominated the Order
of the Knights Templar and
various other highly influential
institutions which, at certain
periods of history, included the
Vatican. The crest which supplies
Vatican. The crest which supplies
the key to the Current represented
by the Merovingian bloodline and
the Order of Sion, comprises the
symbols of the Typhonian line of
descent: the two bears, eleven
bees, and the fleur de lys... The
two bears denote the Mother
(Typhon) and her son (Set)...
"In the Typhonian Tradition the
Bear is the constellation of Ursa
Major. The stars must be aligned
in a specific way in order for Set
to be properly invoked. To the
Priory of Sion (the secret, occult
organization dedicated to
preserving the Merovingian
Bloodline), the Bear was an
animal of the Goddess Diana.
According to Lynn Picknett and
Clive Prince, the authors of The
Templar Revelation, '...the
Merovingian kings, from their
founder Merovee to Clovis (who
converted to Christianity in 496)
were 'pagan kings of the cult of
Diana'.' Picknett and Prince got
this information from the
Dossiers Secrets of the Priory of
Sion." - (571)

NOTES

1. REVIEW of MISSING FROM ACTION: A Powerful Historical Response to the Crisis among
American Men

If you peeked at the Appendix at the back of the book, it may not come as a surprise that
Weldon Hardenbrook is "Father" (Archpriest) John Weldon Hardenbrook. Fr. John oversees
Saints Peter and Paul Church, Ben Lomond, California. His church is affiliated with the
Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America, one of many denominational
expressions of Eastern Orthodoxy in the United States. Weldon Hardenbrook was ordained in
the Orthodox church back in the early 1970s.

In short, his "cure" for the feminized American male as well as the curse of matriarchy is the
re-establishment of patriarchy in both family and church.

Patriarchy is the biblical and traditional blueprint for family life. The American
home has no chance for survival without it. p. 216

While we generally don’t disagree, it would seem the authors are either unable or unwilling to
differentiate between different forms of patriarchy; nor do they seem to acknowledge the
negative side-effects of some historical and contemporary expressions of male authority. For
Frs. Hardenbrook and Somerville, a biblical patriarchy will only be found in a revival of
sacramental, ascetic, ecclesiastical religion -- namely the extension of Eastern Orthodoxy.
Much of the last part of the book is an apologetic, an evangelistic introduction into the tenets of
his "evangelical" brand of Eastern Orthodoxy. We believe this approach falls far short of the
need of the hour – in fact, any hour. [Update 12/6/98. Hardenbrook, Somerville, and 18 other
men were deposed, defrocked, and excommunicated by their Antiochian Orthodox
denominational machinery during the summer of 1998 for being a "schismatic group."]

Shown below are our brief comments on Chapters 4, 5 & 6:

CHAPTER 4 - In an effort to explain how the process of feminization began, the authors begin
with colonial America. They notably point out that theology historically has been "a manly
topic," that colonial men reveled in theology, and that early America enjoyed a "patriarchal
model of family structure." While husbands and wives were considered equals, each had a role
which contributed to the overall well-being of the family and each other. The authors further
assess the condition of 17th century women, the relationship between fathers and sons, and
early colonial courtship. Not until we arrive at their discussion of "Extended Families" did we
detect a proverbial 'fly in the ointment'. The authors finish this chapter with a eulogy to the
old-world clan system of family. In a typical clan, absolute authority is vested in a senior
family member. While one may be able to identify the existence of clans in ancient Jewish
culture, this 'umbrella-type' organizational structure is contrary to Christian teaching. Pastor
Ray R. Sutton makes these observations in this book That You May Prosper:

When Christianity began its trek across this barbaric part of the world [medieval
Europe], there was a constant "Hatfield vs. McCoy" type of feuding. The family
had absolute power to convict and even execute its own members. The [Protestant]
 had absolute power to convict and even execute its own members. The [Protestant]
Church broke down the clans through its court system. It argued that the father
does not have absolute authority. The 'check and balance' on his power is the court
of the Church.

Clans... simply transfer to the father [patriarch] the kind of authority which the
Roman Catholic Church officially invests in the Pope. A father [patriarch]
becomes a final court of earthly appeal, one who can veto a marriage. This is
radically anti-Biblical.

While we are fully in favor of Spirit-authored patriarchy and the biblical 'extended family;' we
seek to warn the reader of the dangers of clanism, both past and present. We have personally
witnessed and experienced its horrible effects.

CHAPTER 5 - The authors continue their diagnosis with a look into America's "spirit of
independence." However, their understanding of American history will strike most well-read
American Christians as rather strange. They erroneously assert that America's break with
England and "political liberty in the colonies" spawned a "distinctly novel American anomaly,
the independent church." Have the authors' affiliation with Eastern Orthodoxy blinded them to
the centuries-old abuse and corruption of religious bureaucracies -- the State Church? Are they
unaware or have they forgotten the histories of the European independents such as the original
Protestants, Puritan/Congregational Independency, Anabaptists, Waldensians, Baptists, and
Brethren? Do they accord no cause/effect to the widespread secular influence of the
Renaissance and the 18th century Enlightenment which affirmed, in the words of historian
Thomas Langford, "the radical independence and competent rationality of human beings"?
Since it appears to be these authors' goal to establish themselves within the "true" Church,
readers should be forewarned of their subtle and not-so-subtle efforts to discredit the entire
Western tradition of Christianity...

Why Eastern Orthodoxy?

Similar to Messrs. Peter Gillquist, Jon Braun, Dick Ballew, and Jack Sparks, Weldon
Hardenbrook was a 1960’s refugee out of the ecumenical/Arminian para-church organization,
Campus Crusade for Christ, International (CCCI). See his comments on page 221. Due to the
serious theological errors of CCCI, particularly in the realm of the Christian life and spiritual
maturity, these men suffered a "great deal of frustration and disillusionment." Campus Crusade,
under the leadership of Dr. William ("Bill") Bright, has erroneously taught a form of "instant
spirituality" which is said to result from their rote "by faith filling with the Spirit." This
concept is built on a misinterpretation of Ephesians 5:18. See http://withchrist.org/filling.htm.

It was the bitter experience of repetitive failure (sin syndrome) that drove these men to abandon
CCCI and then even turn their backs on the entire Protestant realm. All of the leaders
mentioned above, including Franky Schaeffer – son of the well-known Dr. Francis A.
Schaeffer, became clerics in the Eastern Orthodox Church. In the early 1970s shortly before
their departure, Miles Stanford wrote:

…there are those whose disillusionment has driven them into error. For example,
we think of several leaders who are no longer with Campus Crusade, namely, John
Braun, Peter Gillquist and Hal Lindsey. True to CCCI principles, these highly
talented young men were dependent upon confession of sins for the filling with the
Spirit and the expected spirituality. Lack of results resulted in total disillusionment.
 Their understandable reaction caused them to go to the opposite extreme, to do
away with confession of sins. They reasoned that since their sins were already
forgiven, why confess them? Instead, just thank God and continue on. Mainly due
to this [erroneous] teaching as set forth in Gillquist’s book LOVE IS NOW, many
have been turned aside from the privilege and responsibility of confessing their
sins, thus seriously damaging their fellowship with the Father, and with his Son,
Jesus Christ (1 John 1:3).

2. THE CRUSADES

Collaboration of Knights Templar and Patriarchal See of Constantinople

"In 1118, nine Knights Crusaders in the East, among whom were Geoffroi de Saint-Omer
and Hugues de Payens, consecrated themselves to religion, and took an oath between the
hands of the Patriarch of Constantinople, a See always secretly or openly hostile to that of
Rome from the time of Photius. The avowed objective of the Templars was to protect the
Christians who came to visit the Holy Places: their secret object was the re-building of the
Temple of Solomon on the model prophesied by Ezekiel.
"This re-building, formally predicted by the Judaizing Mystics of the earlier ages, had
become the secret dream of the Patriarchs of the Orient. The Temple of Solomon, re-built
and consecrated to the Catholic worship would become, in effect, the Metropolis of the
Universe; the East would prevail over the West, and the Patriarchs of Constantinople
would possess themselves of the Papal power.
"The Templars, or Poor Fellow-Soldiery of the Holy House of the Temple intended to be
rebuilt, took as their models, in the Bible, the Warrior-Masons of Zorobabel, who worked,
holding the sword in one hand and the trowel in the other. Therefore it was that the Sword and
the Trowell were the insignia of the Templars, who subsequently, as will be seen, concealed
themselves under the name of Brethren Masons. [This name, Freres Macons in the French,
adopted by way of secret reference to the Builders of the Second Temple, was corrupted in
English into Free-Masons, as Pythagore de Crotone was into Peter Gower of Groton in
England. Khairum or Khur-um, (a name mis-rendered into Hiram) from an artificer in brass and
other metals, became the Chief Builder of the Haikal Kadosh, the Holy House, of the Temple,...
and the words Bonai and Banaim yet appear in the Masonic Degrees, meaning Builder and
Builders.]
"The trowel of the Templars is quadruple, and the triangular plates of it are arranged in the
form of a cross, making the Kabalistic pantacle known by the name of the Cross of the East.
The Knight of the East, and the Knight of the East and West, have in their titles secret allusions
of whom they were at first the successors."

3. JOHN CHRYSOSTOM (347-407); cohort of Chrysostom a monk from Alexandria?

Among Diodorus' students at the School of Antioch were John Chrysostom and Theodore of
Mopsuestia. The various encyclopedias agree that Chrysostom's view of sin was unscriptural:

"[Chrysostom's] conception of the Divine image in man, which he regards as

consisting in his dominion over creation recalls Diodorus and Theodore. He regards
the Fall as resulting in a privation of gifts which were not a part of man's natural
constitution. He does not teach a complete loss of the Divine image. He agrees with
Theodore in insisting on free will and denying original sin... He denies that
mortality is the cause of sin." 37.
 "[Chrysostom] expressly controverts the view...that sin is an integral part of our
nature." 38.

The Chrysostom Society is a group of neo-gnostics founded and led by Richard Foster.
Members include Madeline L'Engle of the New Age St. John the Divine Cathedral in New
York, Karen Mains, Eugene Peterson, author of The Message, and similar false prophets who
have sought to mainstream the esoteric as Christianity. Foster noted Chrysostom's agreement
with the theology of the famous Gnostic of the School of Alexandria: "In his later life,
Chrysostom was much maligned for his agreement with much of Origen's theology..." 39.

4 ARCADIA

"The Star of Arcady either referred to Arcadia, the earthly home of Kallisto, or to Arcas, her
son..." 927:456

And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having
seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the
name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet
were as the feet of a BEAR, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon
gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as
it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world
wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto
the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is
able to make war with him? And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great
things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two
months. - Rev. 13:1-5

'THE MICHAEL' IN CANCER

"That religion they call Christianity; the

devil they honour they call God... it is
their God and their religion that I hate
and will destroy.—Aleister Crowley, The
World's Tragedy

On the grounds of the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City there stands a large
sculpture of Michael the Archangel slaying the Dragon. As the photos above and below reveal, at
the base of the sculpture, under the Dragon which is being slain by the Archangel, there are two
other strange figures, one of the Sun-god and the other, a Crab. Your average sightseer would not
recognize the Zodiacal sign of Cancer, which is the Crab, or appreciate its occult meaning.
However, the esoteric message of this dramatic scene is one which the occult underground
understands very well. It is that of a long-awaited moment of revenge. This epic event will take
place when a counterfeit Archangel Michael destroys a scapegoat Dragon—the Roman Catholic
Church and Pope—in the sign of Cancer. The Sun-god and Crab positioned underneath the
Archangel mean, in astrological terms, the Sun in Cancer, i.e. that the sun will be moving through
the sign of Cancer when this watershed event occurs.
Merovingians attach great importance to the Dead Sea Scrolls which prophesy that Michael the
Archangel as "The Heavenly Prince Melchizedek.", will preside over the final judgment of Satan,
in fulfillment of Revelation 12:7: And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought
against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels.

"The heavenly deliverer is Melchizedek. Identical with the Archangel Michael, he

is head of the 'Sons of Heaven,' or 'God's of Justice' and is referred to as Elohim
and 'el'... Here Melchizedek is portrayed as presiding over the final judgment and
condemnation of his demonic counterpart Belial/ Satan, the Prince of Darkness...
The great act of deliverance is expected to occur on the Day of Atonement at the
end of the tenth Jubilee cycle." (121:300)

In the first place, the identification of Michael the Archangel with Melchizedek and Elohim
resembles the false belief of the Jehovah's Witnesses that that Jesus did not always exist, but was a
created being originally named Michael the Archangel. This heretical teaching automatically
classifies the above prophecy as a counterfeit fulfillment of Revelation 12. Although Scripture
identifies the dragon in Rev. 12:9 as Satan: "And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent,
called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world..." the Merovingians have cast the
Roman Church as the great Dragon:

"It is of importance to note that the X sign, which became so hated by the Roman
Church, was identified with the archangel Michael (Melchizedek) onwards from
Old Testament times. The heritage of St Michael was the dynasty of high Zadok
priests — a heritage that prevailed in the continuing Messianic line... Fragments of
the Prince Melchizedek Document found among the Dead Sea Scrolls indicate that
Melchizedek and Michael were one and the same. It is this representation which
 Melchizedek and Michael were one and the same. It is this representation which
features in the Revelation when the Archangel Michael (the descending Zadokite
power of the Messiah) fights with the Roman Dragon of oppression…" (29:299,177)

The motive behind portraying the Roman Church as the Dragon is vengeance for the overthrow of
the Merovingian dynasty during the Middle Ages and subsequent persecutions of the Knights
Templar and related heretical sects. The Donation of Constantine was created expressly to
overthrow the Merovingian dynasty and to elevate the authority of the Roman Catholic Pope over
secular kings. The arrest of the Knights Templar is described by Michael Howard in Occult
Conspiracy:

"Phillip IV passed the [incriminating evidence] on to Pope Clement V and the king
and the pontiff conspired to lure the Grand Master of the Order, Jacques de Molay,
into a trap on French soil... In reality the wily king was plotting the downfall of the
Templars and the death of de Molay. The knights were staying at the Templar citadel
in Paris and on 13 October 1307 the king executed his plan. Troops surrounded the
building and everyone inside was placed under arrest. Within forty-eight hours
warrants had been issued ordering the detaining of every Templar in France, even
though this was technically illegal as the Order was answerable only to the Pope and
not to civil laws. On 22 November however, the Pope issued a bull to all the Christian
rulers in Western Europe ordering them to arrest any member of the Order residing in
their countries. The fate of the Templars was sealed." - (25:35,36)

In Realm of the Ring Lords, Sir Laurence Gardner described the Albigensian Crusade conducted by
the Vatican to eradicate the Cathar heresy in the South of France.

"In the Cathar language of old Provence, a female elf was an albi (elbe or ylbi), and
Albi was the name given to the main Cathar centre in Languedoc. This was in
deference to the matrilinear heritage of the Grail dynasty, for the Cathars were
supporters of the original Albi-gens - the Elven Bloodline which had descended
through the Dragon Queens of yore, such as Lilith, Miriam, Bathsheba and Mary
Magdalene. It was for this reason that, when Simon de Montfort and the armies of
Pope Innocent III descended upon the region in 1209, it was called the Albigensian
Crusade. Through some 35 years, tens of thousands of innocent people were
slaughtered in this brutal campaign - all because the inhabitants of the region were
champions of the original concept of Grail kingship, as against the pseudo-style of
monarchy which had been implemented by the papal machine... ( 248:1)

The French Cathar name Albi-gens means Elven bloodline, according to Prince Nicholas de Vere,
Sovereign Grand Master of the Imperial and Royal Dragon Court & Order

"The real 'gentry' or to give them another familiar epithet - the Lords and Ladies -
were...by blood alone, the members of a genetic strain, the Dragon and Grail
families - the Fairy Blood. One could not and cannot 'become' a member of the
gentry any more than one can 'become', by initiation or otherwise, a 'witch', a
'vampire', a 'magus', a 'dragon', a 'fairy' or an 'elf'. All these are names which
described the 'gentry' and the latter - elf - is a word which originates from albi
meaning a white or 'shining one'. From albi derives the French Cathar name
Albigensian (Albi + Gens) meaning - 'of the elven blood' - et quid erat
demonstrandum." (353:4)

Curiously, Fundamentalist and Evangelical ministers often refer to the Albigensians as the true
Christians of the Middle Ages who preserved the Word of God while under severe persecution by
the Catholic Church. For example, David Cloud, who denounces the Roman Catholic Church and
the Pope as the Antichrist, glorifies the Albigensian cult in his book, Rome and the Bible:
the Pope as the Antichrist, glorifies the Albigensian cult in his book, Rome and the Bible:

"The persecutions which were poured out upon these Bible-believing people beginning
in the 7th century caused them to be scattered throughout Europe, everywhere carrying
with them the New Testament faith. The Lutheran historian Mosheim, writing in the
17th century, says:...They were later known by many names, including Paterini,
Cathari, Bulgarians, Patarins, Gazarians, Turlupins, Runcarians, and Albigenses... The
term 'Albigenses' probably derived from a Council which was held in the year 1176 at
the town of Lombers near Albi, 'for the purpose of examining certain reputed
heretics'." (789:34)

What is going on here? Any encyclopedia or objective history will document that the Albigensians
were a sect of the Cathar movement which was heretical in the extreme. The following entry from
Collier's Encyclopedia is representative of other sources:

“The Albigenses followed Manichean dualism in its attempt to solve the

problem of evil. They asserted the co-existence of two ultimate principles, a good
deity (the God of the New Testament) who created Spirit and Light and a bad deity
(the God of the Old Testament) who created Matter and Darkness. Accordingly
they condemned marriage and the procreation of children as demoniac. Yet
concubinage was tolerated…and desertion of husband or wife was…praiseworthy.
Like the Arians, the Albigenses claimed that Christ was merely a created being,
who never really took on a human body, and never actually died on the cross… His
redemption gave us only the example of a noble life and a moral lesson of his
virtue. It did not achieve an objective remission of sin. Believing in
metapsychosis, or transmigration of souls, they forbade the use of flesh meat and
milk or other animal produce. Rejecting the authority of the Church and State, they
appealed to the Scriptures, mostly the New Testament because the Old Law was
regarded as mainly a demoniac creation. The taking of oaths, war, and capital
punishment were forbidden.
“The Albigenses distinguished between the 'perfect' and mere believers. The
former, a small minority, were held to the observances of the ancient Cathari: the
consolamentum or spirit baptism through the imposition of hands, which gave the
right to preach the new religion, the appareillamentum, or public confession of sins
and endura or starvation to death in order to be freed from the flesh…
“While exact figures are not available, it is certain that more than one thousand
cities and towns in France were influenced by Albigensianism at the close of the
12th century… Always the Cathari were denounced, not only for doctrinal heresy,
but as a menace to the family, state and human society.
“…Their only requirement was faith; for the rest they were allowed to do as
they pleased.” (990)

There are also connections between the Albigensian Cathars and the Grail cult, which also
flourished in the south of France. This connection is mentioned in Bloodline of the Holy Grail:

"Elusive though it is, there does seem to be some link between the Cathars and the
whole cult of the Grail as it evolved during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. A
number of writers have argued that the Grail romances - those of Chretien de
Troyes and Wolfram von Eschenbach, for example - are an interpolation of Cathar
thought...Something had been smuggled out of Montsegur just after the truce
expired. According to tradition the four men who escaped from the doomed citadel
carried with them the Cathar treasure, but the monetary treasure had been smuggled
out three months earlier. Could the Cathar 'treasure', like the 'treasure' Sauniere
discovered, have consisted primarily of a secret? Could that secret have been
related in some unimaginable way to something that became known as the Holy
 related in some unimaginable way to something that became known as the Holy
Grail?" (29:51-2,61-2)

Can it be that modern day Cathars are behind the movement to portray the Albigensians as
Christian and the Catholic Church as the Dragon/Antichrist/ False Prophet? After their demise, the
Merovingians determined to overthrow the Catholic Church and aspired to repossess the thrones of
Europe. To this end, Jewish Cabalists and other occult sects infiltrated the Catholic Church during
the Middle Ages with the intention of subverting it from within. In recent times also, many of the
popes have been agents of Judeo-Freemasonry. To accomplish the final overthrow of the Roman
Church, the occult societies have launched a campaign within Christianity to misrepresent the next
pope as the Antichrist or False Prophet. The Catholic Church will be tried, in all probability at the
World Court in Geneva, Switzerland (home of John Calvin), for crimes against the gnostic sects
during the Inquisition.

The Pope and Catholic Church will be overthrown by a counterfeit Michael the Archangel under
the sign of Cancer which is most likely to occur around the mid-point of the Tribulation Period.
Rome will be burned and the Pope will be beheaded as the Dragon—or the Antichrist or False
Prophet, depending on the audience targeted for this Merovingian propaganda. This event will be a
counterfeit fulfillment of Daniel 12:1 and Rev. 12:7 and the actual fulfillment of Revelation 17
and 18—the destruction of Mystery Babylon the Great. A Merovingian Pope will then become the
patriarch of a new Esoteric Church.

In essence, the confrontation between the counterfeit Archangel Michael and the Roman Church
represents a fight to the death between the Gnostic heresy and Christian doctrine. From the
holocaust of the Christian faith (Luke 18:8) will rise the mythical Phoenix, the Esoteric Church.
Having destroyed the Roman Church, the bogus Dragon, this pseudo Archangel Michael will have
the audacity to fight against Jesus Christ upon His return, claiming that Jesus is Satan. (Psalm 2)

It will be when the Sun is in the sign of Cancer that a counterfeit Michael the Archangel will slay
the Dragon, i.e., destroy the Roman Church and remove every vestige of Christian doctrine from
planet Earth. Thus cleansing the earth—by elimination of all historic creeds and remnants of
traditional Christianity, inhibitors of the Gnostic program of transformation—will make possible
the release of mankind from his bondage to matter and escape to the spiritual realms. At least, this
is what the Gnostics believe will happen.

And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that
they should believe a lie: That they all might be damned who
believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness. II
Thess. 2:12

LEO
THE LION KING

"Some of the stars in this particular constellation are Denebola,

which means 'The Judge,' 'The Lord Who Cometh Quickley';
Zosma, meaning 'The Shining Forth,' the 'Epiphany' (or
manifestation, as when Christ shall come again); Minchair al
Asad, meaning in Arabic 'The Punishing' or 'Tearing of Him who
Lays Waste''; Al Defera, meaning 'The Putting Down of the
Enemy.' Here indeed is a vivid picture of the wrath of the Lamb;
the coming forth of Christ in final judgment and victory over His
foes.
"In the sign of Cancer, The Crab, and all of its decans, the
saints are finally held securely by Christ and are brought at last
into the heavenly arch, into safe harbor, and into home at the end.
Christ has finally securely brought His own unto Himself. But
before the end there is the destruction of His enemies. In this final
sign of Leo it is equally clear and uncontestable that this is a
picture of the destruction of the wicked." - D. James Kennedy
(872:123-4)

Dr. Kennedy's knowledge of astrology and Egyptology are prominent throughout his book,
The Real Meaning of the Zodiac. As well, he knows much (too much) about ancient sacred
sites. We recall that Chuck Missler also has an unhealthy interest in sacred sites, such as
the Tarxien temple which tourists on his Malta Expedition will visit in April, 2004. To
elucidate the symbolism of the Sphinx, Dr. Kennedy refers to a 'sky painting' in an ancient
Egyptian temple, discreetly omitting the fact that the Temple of Esneh is dedicated to the
Egyptian creator-god, Chnum.

"I know it will surprise you, but the sphinx actually unlocks the mystery of the
zodiac. It is fascinating to note that in the Temple of Esneh in Egypt, there is a
great sky painting in the portico on the ceiling which shows the whole picture
of the zodiac with all of its constellations. Between the figures of Virgo, The
Virgin, and Leo, The Lion, there is carved the figure of the sphinx with the
head of a woman and the body of a lion. The woman's face is looking at The
Virgin and the lion's tail is pointing to Leo, telling us that we begin with The
 Virgin and the lion's tail is pointing to Leo, telling us that we begin with The
Virgin and end with Leo." (D. James Kennedy) (872:19)

The zodiac at the Temple of Esneh was patterned after the most famous ancient Zodiac of
Denderah in the Temple of Hathor. In Egyptian mythology, Hathor was the daughter of Nut and
Ra, the wife of Ra called the 'Eye of Ra,' and mother of Horus the Elder. It seems the Egyptians
anticipated that future generations would not be able to understand the zodiac without some
help. So they built the Sphinx, which had the head of a woman and the body of a lion, to
signify that the zodiac begins with the sign of Virgo and ends in Leo. Jim Cornwell, another
astrologer in sheep's clothing, explains:

"And so the Sphinx was invented as a memorial guide to the heavens. It had
the head of a woman and the body and tail of a lion, to tell us where to start and
stop. The word 'Sphinx' is from the Greek 'sphingo,' to join—because it binds
together the story's two ends, making this circle of the heavens.
"Confirmation of this is found in one of the oldest zodiacs, dating back to
approximately the year 2000 B.C. This is the zodiac of Dendereh. It was discovered
by scholars in the ceiling of the portico of the temple of Esneh in Egypt. In this
zodiac there is placed between the signs of Virgo and Leo a picture of the Sphinx."
"That, then, solves the 'riddle' of the Sphinx." (1045)

Contrary to the false gospel in the stars, Virgo's position in the Zodiac has nothing at all to do
with the Promised Seed of the Virgin Mary; rather the first sign of the Zodiac was Virgo/Isis,
the sister-wife of Osiris, who was also known as Saturn, Tammuz and Nimrod and who was
reincarnated in his son, Horus. Please recall that the dismemberment of Osiris represented the
fragmenting of the different races, religions and cultures of humanity which Nimrod had
attempted to unite (Gen.11). Isis' equivalent in Greek mythology was Rhea, the sister and wife
of Cronus (the Roman Saturn) and the mother of Demeter (Rom. Ceres), Hades (Pluto), Hera
(Juno), Hestia (Vesta), Poseidon (Neptune), and Zeus (Jupiter).

In his book, The Illuminati Formula Used to Create an Undetectable Total Mind Controlled
Slave, Fritz Springmeier explains the singular importance of Saturn in the occult world:

"Saturn/Chronos was the father of all Gods in the mythology of the ancient world.
David M. Talbot in his book The Saturn Myth documents how all over the world
Saturn has been worshipped even more than the sun god. Saturn has been the secret
god of the occult. When (sic.) we read in Deut. 18:9-10, 'When thou art come into
the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the
abominations of those nations. There shall not be found among you any one that
maketh his son or daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an
observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.' All of these practices are
abominations done by Satanists today and are becoming commoner among
Americans. Note that the first item mentioned by Moses in this passage was passing
(putting) children into the fire (of Molech)... The worship of Molech was the
worship of Saturn." (49:159)

Quoting Scripture as proof, Springmeier proceeds to demonstrate that Saturn was, in fact,
Molech:

"Amos wrote, 'Did ye bring unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness
forty years, O House of Israel? Yea, ye have borne the tabernacle of your king
('siccuth malkecem', or in the Septuagint it reads 'skenen tou Moloch'!!), and the
shrine (kiyyun) of your images, the star of your God, which ye made to yourselves'
 shrine (kiyyun) of your images, the star of your God, which ye made to yourselves'
AMS 5:25-26
"The Christian Stephen quotes these passages of Amos and connects it with the
worship of the golden calf (bull or Taurus). His words on this are recorded in Acts
7:41. He further connects it in the next verse with the worship of 'the hosts of
heaven'. In line with translations like the Septuagint, he states in verse 43 that
Amos 5 refers to the cult 'of Moloch and the star of the god Rephan'.
"...Further, the word Chiun...has been represented by the word Rephan in Acts
7:43. Rephan is Kaivan (Chiun) which is the Arabian and Syrian way of saying
Saturn. The adoration of the calf (bull) in the wilderness was an important act of
defiance by the Israelites—while Moses went up on the mountain to speak to God
face to face. This worship of the bull was actually worship of Saturn! Some call
this star worship, and the bull was worshipped because at that time the constellation
Taurus (the Bull) marked the position of the sun at the time of the spring equinox...
"Moloch, then was the Sun God, ruing the Zodiac period from Taurus to Serpens
and Scorpio which is when the sun is hottest." (49:159-160)

We turn now to Dr. Cathy Burns' book, Hidden Secrets of the Eastern Star. On page 150 is
found a strange but well-known picture among occultists whose esoteric meaning, as
interpreted by a Masonic source, is most informative. From the Masonic Short Talk Bulletin we
learn that Leo, the final sign of the Zodiac, is Rhea's husband—Saturn or Chronos, the god of
Time.

"'A broken column denoted

that a pillar of the state had
fallen. In Egyptian mythology,
Isis is sometimes pictured
weeping over the broken
column which conceals the
body of her husband Osiris,
while behind her stands
Horus or Time pouring
ambrosia on her hair. In
Hasting's Encyclopedia of
Religion and Ethics, Isis is
said sometimes to be
represented standing; in her
right hand is a sistrum, in her
left hand a small ewer and on
her forehead is a lotus,
emblem of resurrection. In the
Dionysaic Mysteries,
Dionysius is represented as
slain; Rhea goes in search of
the body. She finds it and
 the body. She finds it and
causes it to be buried. She is
sometimes represented as
standing by a column holding
in her hand a sprig of wheat,
emblem of immortality;
since, though it be placed in
the ground and die, it
springs up again into
newness of life. She was the
wife of Kronos or Time, who
may fittingly be represented
as standing behind her.'...
"There is, however, a
deeper meaning to this
symbol. Former Mason and
Satanist, William
Schnoebelen, relates:
"'Isis was both virgin and
mother, so the 'beautiful
virgin' is Isis weeping. The
broken column is the missing
member of Osiris [the
phallus], the acacia, an
allusion to the eternal life
preached by the Egyptians as
well as the fertility cults'
emphasis on vegetation. The
urn is an evocation of the
canopic jars used in Egyptian
funerals to store the vital
organs of mummies. Finally,
we have 'Time,' the god
Saturn, a later form of the
mysterious and evil god, Set.
In astrology, Saturn is called
the 'greater malefic,' or greater
evil." (625:149-150)
(Cf. the positions of the
constellations Virgo and Leo
in Constellations of the
Zodiac)

According to the above Masonic source, the sprig of

wheat in the right hand of Isis (representing the
female side of Lucifer) stands for immortality, the
strong delusion of the New Age Movement. But why
is Saturn/Chronos holding a farm instrument, the
scythe, under his left arm?? (In some versions of this
picture he holds the scythe in his left hand.) Please
note (to the left) the Great Seal of the United
States, specifically the sprig of wheat in the right talon
of the eagle and the arrows in the left talon. We have
 of the eagle and the arrows in the left talon. We have
already established that this American Eagle is none
other than the brilliant star Vega in the constellation of
Lyra, the Harp [note the harp on the eagle's breast] in
the sign of Sagittarius, the Archer. As the star Vega,
which rises at sunset on May 1st, the American Eagle
is the 'risen phoenix', aka 'Lucifer rising' from the
Underworld on Beltane (May 1). Recall that Virgo
once carried the sheaf of wheat, but now, as Virgo-
Libra, carries the spike (Spica) as a weapon to destroy
the enemies of Gnosis, the hidden wisdom of Lucifer.
The scythe is the symbol of Saturn, whom famous
19th century occultists, Eliphaz Levi and H.P.
Blavatsky, identified as Baal, the Lord of Death,
whose worship required human sacrifice:

"Eliphaz Levi claims: 'Works of malediction and death' were 'under the care of
Saturn.' It's no wonder, then, that Saturn is called the Lord of Death.' In fact, human
sacrifices were even offered to him...
"'...Baal was the Saturn of Greece and Rome; and there was great conformity
between the rites and sacrifices offered to Saturn and what the Scriptures related of the
sacrifices offered to Baal.'
"Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, occultist and New Ager, also confirms that Saturn is
Bel or Baal...
"Another correlation between Saturn and the broken column symbolism is that the
symbol for Saturn is a scythe. The Masonic figure of the broken column shows the
god with a scythe standing behind Isis." (625:151-2)

Occult sources agree that the emblem of Chronos/Saturn was the scythe, and that this instrument
was used to perform rites of human sacrifice. An article in NASA's Casini-Huygens Journal, "In
Search of the Real Saturn," specifically mentioned 'beheading' as the means of murder: "The scythe
carried by Saturn was not necessarily a farm instrument. Scythes were also used as weapons
particularly for the beheading of monsters and giants." (363)

It seems that the occult underground, which is really the occult establishment, intends to revive this
form of execution in order to restore the ancient religion of Osiris. To justify the mass slaughter of
those who will not worship the devil in his varied forms, the worshippers of Satan (Saturn)
scramble for ways to rationalize his bloodlust. In Fritz Springmeier's book, The Illuminati Formula,
a Satanist known as Mother of Darkness defends human sacrifice on the grounds that such a
cleansing will regenerate the earth, restore the balance, and serve as a deliverance for all parties
involved. It seems that Saturn will be the gateway for the arrival of the ancient gods who will
cleanse the earth. This is the meaning of the opening of the eye of Molech:

"Mother of Darkness: 'Saturn is the gateway that must be opened. For a season God
has winked that man might be illuminated... Soon the other eye of God must open.
Those who are illuminated have kept the balance point. The majority of mankind has
not. Few seek the ancient seed of wisdom that comes from the brow of Lucifer... The
other eye of God, as some would say. Chemosh. Cleansing fire. The outstretched arms
of Molech.'
"Interviewer: 'What has that got to do with Saturn?'
"Mother of Darkness: 'Everything. This is the most secret thing. Saturn is the
gateway. The point at which all thought is fixed. The point at which all feeling shall be
projected as the eye opens. Much ritual and preparation has gone into the issuance
 projected as the eye opens. Much ritual and preparation has gone into the issuance
through the gateway of the ancient ones. A strengthened invisible quintessence to hold
them in this plane at the time of advent.
"Interviewer: 'And what will be the result of this advent? What will it mean?
"Mother of Darkness: 'A restoring of the balance. Those who do not seek wisdom
shall cease... When the other eye opens the dawn shall come. The Golden Dawn shall
be upon us... The urge to sacrifice others is a gift. It is a liberation from the awful
rigidity...of other humans. However badly treated... They do not truly die. Light
increases. Wisdom grows...Death begets life. The sacred cycle of the ancient. The
earth shall regenerate herself when the eye of Molech opens." (49:161)

Regulus = Saturn's Scythe

Graham Hancock and Robert Bauval would have us believe that that the sickle of Saturn, i.e. Leo,
is a question mark (?) and that Regulus is the lion's heart: "Leo resembles the animal after which it
was named. A right triangle of stars outline the back legs...the front of the constellation, like a
giant backward question mark, defines the head, mane and front legs. At the base of the question
mark is Regulus, the heart of the lion..." (132:152) In his book on astrology, D. James Kennedy
also refers to Regulus as the heart of Leo, the Lion.

Regulus is a brilliant 1st magnitude star in the constellation of Leo. In his astrological handbook,
Star Names: Their Lore and Meaning, Richard Hinckley Allen identifies Regulus as Leo's sickle.

"The Egyptian stellar Lion...comprised only a part of ours, and in the earliest records
some of its stars were shown as a Knife, as they now are as a Sickle... [Regulus] was
of course prominent among the lunar-mansion stars, and chief to the 8th nakshatra
[constellation] that bore its name, Maghā, made up by all the components of the
Sickle... In Arabia, with γ, ζ, and η of the Sickle, it was the 8th mansil [mansion of the
moon], Al Jabbah, of the Forehead." (927:255,257)

According to J.R. Church, this star is the sword of Christ: "Regulus, the king star in Leo also
happens to be in the handle of a sickle in the head of Leo. The point of the sickle protrudes from
the lion's mouth. Could that sickle represent the sword in the mouth of Christ? Revelation 19:15
says, 'And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations.'" (1046)

From these seemingly dissonant sources, we see that disinformation abounds not only in the New
Age community but also in the Christian community, where pseudo-biblical astrologers are
preparing the apostate Church for reception of the Antichrist as Jesus Christ wielding a scythe
against His enemies. Whilst the strategy of Reformed Amillennialists such as D. James Kennedy is
to deny the Tribulation period altogether, pseudo-Dispensationalists like J.R. Church mislead their
readers through false interpretations of proper eschatology. A major objective of Dispensational
false teachers, such as J.R. Church, is to eventually fool apostate Christendom that the mid-point of
the Tribulation Period is the end of the Tribulation. Popular prophecy conferences provide a far-
reaching platform for false prophecy teachers to pervert Dispensational truth through false
interpretations. Multitudes of Christians are led into error through this scam.

J.R. Church appears to be a major player in the New Age scheme to stage a counterfeit Tribulation
period. His article "Where Will The Planets Be In The Year 2000?" is basically the New Age
propaganda that the planetary conjunctions in May of the year 2000, which occurred in the sign of
Taurus, began the New Age. Christians, he implied, should interpret this New Age event as the
onset of the Tribulation. According to Church, the end of the Tribulation period will occur in
August of 2007 with a Saturn/ Regulus conjunction, at which time Saturn's sickle will also
fall—on the enemies of "Christ":
fall—on the enemies of "Christ":

"Some remarkable conjunctions will occur in May of the year 2000 as all five major
planets, along with the sun and moon, group together leaving the constellation, Aries,
and entering Taurus around May 4.
"Jupiter and Saturn will be extremely close as Venus has a conjunction with Jupiter
on the morning of May 17 and with Saturn a few hours later, May 18. Jupiter and
Saturn, the two largest planets in our Solar System, will meet a few days later on May
27. This is a remarkable series of events to occur in a single month.
"According to THE WITNESS OF THE STARS, by E. Bullinger, published in
1893, Taurus begins the story of the second coming of Christ. Bullinger writes, 'In this
third and last book, we come to the concluding portion of this heavenly revelation. Its
subject is redemption completed, and consummated in triumph ... the glory that should
follow ... The sign in Chaldee is Tor; Greek, Tauros; Latin, Taurus. The Hebrew name
is Shur, which is from a root which means both coming and ruling. It is a prophecy of
Christ, the coming Judge, and Ruler, and Lord of all the earth.'...
"Over the next seven years, from 2000 to 2007, Saturn will travel through the
constellations that tell the story of the wrath of God being poured out upon an
unbelieving world. That would be Taurus, the coming Judge; Gemini, which in ancient
zodiacs tells the story of the Bridegroom and his bride; Cancer, the symbol of
resurrection; and Leo, the lion pouncing on Hydra, a many-headed serpent. These
constellations along with their sidereal sidepieces tell the story of the second coming
of Christ...
"In the Rotunda ceiling at the Griffith Observatory in Los Angeles, California, is a
mural of Saturn by Hugo Ballin. It shows Saturn below the sickle in the mouth of Leo.
Will Saturn use Leo's sickle? Coming up around August 29, 2007, Saturn will have a
conjunction with Regulus. It will be near its conjunction as the calendar approaches
Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year on September 12, 2007. Will Saturn's
conjunction with Regulus complete the story which began on the night of Jupiter's
conjunction with Regulus in 3 B.C.?" (1046)

J.R.'s projection of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ is based on the Jupiter/Regulus triple
conjunction theory of the Star of Bethlehem, which announced the first coming of Christ. To
support this erroneous concept, J.R. appeals to the gnostic tradition of assigning astrological
symbols to the twelve tribes of Israel:

"On the night of Rosh Hashanah, September 11, 3 B.C., Jupiter was in
conjunction with Regulus, the brightest star in Leo, the lion. It passed across the
star, stopped around the first of December and began a retrograde movement,
crossing Regulus again on February 17, 2 B.C. It continued its backward trek 40
days, then turned around again and had a third conjunction with Regulus on May 8,
2 B.C...
"The remarkable thing about this triple conjunction is that the dying Jacob gave
a prophecy on his deathbed concerning the coming of the Messiah from the tribe of
Judah - to which he gave the sign of the celestial lion:
"Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the
neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.
"Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped
down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?
"The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet,
until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be" (Genesis
49:8-10).
 "The Hebrew word used for 'his feet' reglaiv, is very close to the Latin, Regulus.
We get the word regal and regulation from Regulus. The Hebrew regel (foot)
appears to be so similar to the name of the star, we suspect a connection.
"Regulus has been known down through the centuries as the 'king star.' Jacob
said that the 'scepter [a royal rod held in the hand of a king] shall not depart from
Judah ... until Shiloh [a reference to the Messiah] come. On the other hand, Jupiter
was also known as the royal planet - the king planet. It must have had some special
significance to the Magi when Jupiter, the king planet had the first of three
conjunctions with Regulus, the king star between the feet of Leo. Circling above
Regulus, Jupiter seemed to draw a crown - perhaps signifying the arrival of the
divine King." (1046)

The Counterfeit Tribulation

Using various fronts posing as Christian ministries, the secret societies have used the Grand
Planetary Alignment and Jupiter/Saturn conjunction in the year 2000 to mark the beginning of a
false Tribulation Period. The rationale behind commencing a false Tribulation period before the
genuine Tribulation starts is to ultimately deceive the apostate Christian masses with a false
Antichrist, a false False Prophet, a false Mark of the Beast—a pseudo New World Order which
will be overthrown by the real Antichrist posing as Jesus Christ. So when J.R. Church projects
that August 29, 2007 is the end of the 7-year Tribulation period and the Second Coming of
Jesus Christ, the reader can reasonably assume that this date may be the midpoint of the
Tribulation when the Antichrist makes his grand entrance, per Revelation 13:1.

To illustrate Satan's counterfeiting of real Tribulation events, the following table charts the
events of the false Tribulation in chronological relation to the actual Tribulation events 3.5 years
later. This table is based on the assumption that the Book of Revelation follows a strict
chronological order, as Jesus instructed the apostle John: "Write the things which thou hast
seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter." (Rev.1:19)

The Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the true Church will be the event that God uses to begin the actual
seven-year Tribulation Period. During the first 3 1/2 years of the real Tribulation, the secret
societies will set up a false Antichrist, a false False Prophet, a false Dragon, a false Babylon the
societies will set up a false Antichrist, a false False Prophet, a false Dragon, a false Babylon the
Great, false Mark of the Beast and many other counterfeit fulfillments of Bible prophecy. These
counterfeits will function as decoys and scapegoats in order to (1) justify the elimination of
established governments and traditional religions and (2) prevent recognition of the true Antichrist,
the true False Prophet, true Mark of the Beast and Satan's gnostic religious system. At the midpoint
of the Tribulation period, the real Antichrist and False Prophet will destroy the false Antichrist, the
false False Prophet, the false Dragon which is Mystery Babylon the Great, the Roman Catholic
Church.

According to D. James Kennedy, the chief star of Leo, Regulus, will be the heavenly sign of
'Christ' when he tramples on His enemies.

"The chief star [of the constellation Leo, The Lion] means 'He That Tears Asunder.'
And God represents Himself in that way... The chief star, situated in the lion's breast,
whence its mighty paws proceed, bears the name of Regal, which means 'The Treading
Underfoot,' That is precisely what the feet of the lion can do. In fact, Joseph Seiss,
author of The Gospel in the Stars, tells us that the forepaw of the lion can exert the
same force as dropping a twenty-five point hammer. With one blow of its paw it can
break the backbone of an ox or crush the skull of a horse. With one blow its claws can
cut four inches in depth on another beast. No wonder man is ill-equipped to fight with
a lion!.. (872:119)

There is a hint in Kennedy's remarks that the mighty fall of Christendom will be connected with
the discovery of the Hall of Records in the Lion's forepaw ('the lion's breast, whence its mighty
paws proceed') with the result that 2,000 years of Christian dogma will be pronounced invalid.

"In this last of the constellations, the feet of the lion are about to land on the head or
neck of the serpent... In this final sign of Leo it is...clear and incontestable that this is a
picture of the destruction of the wicked." (872:119-20)

In August of 2003 there were several conjunctions leading up to a conjunction of Regulus and
Jupiter, which is regarded by astrologers as the King of the Planets, King Star, Melchizedek and
the Messiah all rolled into one. Robert Wadsworth reported on this "unique rendezvous" in his
'Biblical Astronomy" (i.e., astrology) newsletter of August 2003:

"Starting around August 21, the Sun, Jupiter and Venus will be closing in on a
rendezvous with the star Regulus in the constellation Leo (Arieh, the lion).
Continuing on through August 26, there will be various massings and conjunctions of
the above- mentioned heavenly bodies. Chart 324 below shows the close grouping of
the above-mentioned bodies for August 22, 2003. The planet Jupiter is the large dot
above the sun, and the star Regulus is the smaller dot below Venus. The bodies are
too close together here to show the labels of all...
"Before getting into the events, I will give a review of the Biblical meanings of the
constellation Leo (Arieh), the star Regulus, the planets Jupiter and Venus, and the Sun.
"The constellation Leo (Arieh, the lion) represents not only Messiah crushing the
enemy, but also the Tribe of Judah and the House of Judah.
"The star Regulus in the constellation Leo (Arieh) is the brightest star in that
constellation and the chief or king star (the king star of Yehudah). All ancient
civilizations recognized Regulus as the king star, the one and only king star in the
zodiac. Regulus means kingly in Latin. The Arabic word regel means foot and is
identical in meaning to the Aramaic word regla and the Hebrew word regel. Thus the
brightest star in the constellation of Arieh, has the Biblical connotation of the foot,
tying in with the "from between his feet," of Genesis 49:10 ("the sceptre shall not
 tying in with the "from between his feet," of Genesis 49:10 ("the sceptre shall not
depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto
him shall the gathering of the people be") represented by the king star, Regulus.
The planet Jupiter or Tzedeq in Hebrew is the chief or king planet of all the
planets. Its Hebrew name Tzedeq is the root of Melchizedek. Jupiter has long been
recognized as a messianic star and associated with the Messiah. Tzedeq means
righteousness. The Messiah who would come from David's genetic line was to be the
righteous Branch, according to Jeremiah 23:5, who would reign as a king and execute
righteousness. His name would be called the Lord our Righteousness (Jer. 23 5, 6 and
Jer 33:15, 16). Thus Jupiter has characteristics that would associate it with the
Messiah. Yahshua is made an high priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec (Heb.
6:20).
"Venus is the bright and morning star. This is also associated with Yahshua
HaMashiach, "the bright and morning star" in Rev. 22:16.
"The Sun represents the going forth of the bridegroom (Psalm 19:5, 6)

Former Kansas City false prophet, Bob Jones, gave Jupiter similar approbation in his 1999
article, "The Lance of the Basilisk." Based on one of Jones' revelatory visions, the article states
that the Shoemaker-Levy comet that impacted Jupiter in 1994 was really an attack of a powerful
arch demon of Hell, an agent of Satan named Basilisk, against the Michael the Archangel,
misrepresented as Melchizedek—whose name happens to be synonymous with Jupiter. Here is
a prime example of a false prophet pretending to oppose the very falsehood he is promoting:

"On July 16, 1994, which is the 9th of Av on the Hebrew Calendar, the twenty-
one pieces of Shoemaker-Levi comet began its bombardment on the planet Jupiter.
Jupiter is commonly recognized as a symbol of idolatry and paganism. One of the
most devastating events in the history of Israel occurred when the image of Jupiter
was placed in the Temple of God. We continue to observe the feast of Hanukkah as
a celebration of the victory of the Maccabees in removing this pagan god from the
temple and re-instituting temple worship.
"It is clearly prophetically significant that the Shoemaker Levi comet began its
assault on the planet Jupiter on this notable date. The Heavens declare the Glory of
God. It is also significant that the comet was broken into twenty-one pieces also
representing the twenty-one days extending from the 17th of Tammuz until the 9th
of AV, the season which this prevailing spirit operates with its greatest authority.
"Even though Jupiter is a symbol of idolatry for the pagan world, it is also a
term for righteousness in the Hebrew language. The Hebrew name for Jupiter is
Tzedeq and comes from the word meaning 'righteous' or 'righteous one'. It is from
this term that the name Melchizedek is derived denoting 'King of Righteousness'.
"Clearly, we can see that Satan has perverted Jupiter into a symbol of idolatry.
However, we can glean understanding from this term as a symbol of righteousness
in the hope of our being cleansed by the Truth of God's Word thereby making us a
 in the hope of our being cleansed by the Truth of God's Word thereby making us a
suitable habitation for His Holy Spirit so that we can share in His holiness." (1050)

Using the Hebrew calendar to support an astrological false teaching, Bob Jones was claiming
that the 1994 assault of Shoemaker-Levi on Jupiter symbolized a strategic attack by the powers
of darkness on the Jesus Christ, whom God represents by the planet Jupiter. It's a good thing all
Bob Jones' intercessors waged spiritual warfare in the heavenlies, as he exhorted them, "This
high level authority cannot be combated individually but must be engaged through corporate
united intercessory prayer." Jones was happy to report in his "Plans and Strategy for Spiritual
Warfare in 1999 and 2000" that Basilisk was defeated through their prayers. According to
Jones' fellow astrologer in sheep's clothing, Bob Wadsworth, God gave us the planetary
alignment of May, 2000 and the Jupiter/Regulus conjunction of 2003 as portents that the
Messiah is on His way.

"After thousands of hours of research, I know for certain that these were and are
the greatest signs ever to occur marking the Return of Messiah. In the last 6,000
years and for at least 5,000 years to come, there was and will not be an array of
such fine signs as we were witness to over these past 7 years (saving when the sun
turns black and the moon blood red after the tribulation of those days)." (1047)

The Prince of the Covenant

In his book, From the Omens of Babylon, Michael Baigent predicted that a conjunction of
Jupiter—the King of the planets called the King Star by New Agers—and Regulus, another King
Star, would presage the removal of a reigning monarch from power.

"One [Akkadian] text states unequivocally the connection between a celestial

challenge and one upon the earth: 'When Jupiter advances on Regulus...another will
rise up and kill the king, and seize the throne... Regulus has long been named 'The
Royal Star', called by the Assyrians Sharru, which means 'the king'. Jupiter, then, in
this text is assuming the role of a strong challenger to the reigning monarch
symbolized by Regulus." (696:150)

"In ancient Jewish tradition, Jupiter was the planet called the 'King's Star'...." (53)

"The star Regulus in the constellation Leo (Arieh) is the brightest star in that
constellation and the chief or king star (the king star of Yehudah). All ancient
civilizations recognized Regulus as the king star, the one and only king star in the
zodiac. Regulus means kingly in Latin." (1047)

The Columbia Encyclopedia states that "Regulus is a visual triple star. Its name is Latin for
'prince'." (124:2297) Is it possible that Regulus, as Saturn, is named for the 'prince that shall
come' to sign a peace treaty with Israel?

...and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the
sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war
desolations are determined. And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one
week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to
cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even
until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate. -
Dan. 9:27
If so, this 'prince of the covenant' will fail to deliver on his promises and be overthrown at mid-
Tribulation by the Antichrist, i.e., Jupiter advancing on Regulus.

And in his estate shall stand up a vile person, to whom they shall not give the
honour of the kingdom: but he shall come in peaceably, and obtain the kingdom by
flatteries. And with the arms of a flood shall they be overflown from before him,
and shall be broken; yea, also the prince of the covenant. - Dan. 11:21-22

In The Secret Architecture of Our Nation's Capital, author David Ovason stated that Regulus
means 'little ruler' and that this 1st magnitude star was the 'guiding star' of Rome.

"What is most remarkable about the merging of history with mythology is that ancient
Roman astrologers had linked the foundation of their own city with a fixed star in Leo.
This was Regulus, whose name means 'little ruler'—perhaps a reasonable association
for a city that was to rule the world for so many centuries. The star Regulus is said to
have entered the zodiacal sign of Leo in 293 B.C., and has been taken ever since by
astrologers as the guiding star of the Eternal City." (512:9-10)

Rome was also known as the city of Saturn and, according to Alexander Hislop, "...the Pope
is...the legitimate representative of Saturn,... But it still further it turns out...that the original
name of Rome itself was Saturnia, 'the city of Saturn.' Thus, then the Pope...is the only
legitimate representative of the original Saturn at this day in existence, and he reigns in the very
city of the seven hills where the Roman Saturn formerly reigned..." (156:259)

Saturn was a malicious god who was overthrown by his son, Jupiter (Gr. Zeus), whence he
established a Golden Age on earth. The Mythology Dictionary describes the brutal disposition
of Saturn:

"The titan Saturn (equated with the Greek Cronus) castrated his father, hated his
children, devoured them, and was castrated and overthrown by his son Zeus. After
his defeat, Saturn ruled over the Golden Age of the world; according to Roman
mythology, he fled to the west and brought a new golden time to Italy. Originally
Saturn was an old Italic deity of the harvest; the Roman's built a temple to Saturn
on the Capitoline hill and each December celebrated the winter planting with the
Saturnalia, a time of revelry and the giving of presents. Saturnalia today denotes a
period of unrestrained or orgiastic revelry. Saturn gives his name to the sixth planet
from the sun, the second largest planet in the solar system after Jupiter. ...a
saturnine temperament...is...gloomy or melancholy, characteristics of the god who
castrated his father and was overthrown. Saturnian simply means pertaining to the
god or the planet Saturn. The planet Saturn was also associated with the element
lead, and so the term for lead poisoning is saturnism." (1047)

At the Roman Saturnalia was celebrated each year the overthrow of the Atlantean god Saturn
(Gr. Chronos) by the god Jupiter (Gr. Zeus) and return to the Golden Age of Atlantis. John
King, author of The Celtic Druid's Year, explains:

“The Roman festival dedicated to Saturn, the Saturnalia, began on 19 December. It

celebrated the overthrow of the old father-god, Saturn, by the new, Jupiter or Deus-
Pater (God the Father, although in our context he is actually God the Son). These
gods have direct counterparts in Greek mythology (Chronos and Zeus) and in
Celtic mythology (Bran and Bel or Belin)…” (270:133)

In Roman mythology, Jupiter (Gr. Zeus), was the last god of Atlantis. Ignatius Donnelly tells of
Jupiter's fame and glory after he deposed his father, Saturn: "The third and last on the throne of
the highest god was Zeus... He was called 'the thunderer,' and 'the mighty thunderer.' He was
represented with thunder-bolts in his hand and an eagle at his feet. During the time of Zeus
Atlantis seems to have reached its greatest height of power. He was recognized as the father of
the whole world..." - 635 (Part IV, Ch. II)

The Dialectic

The conjunction of the planets Saturn and Jupiter in May of 2000 presaged, in astrological
folklore, the reunion of these ancient gods to recreate the new Atlantis—a social order based on
the pre-flood civilization which God judged in Genesis 7. The motto of 33rd degree
Freemasonry is "ordo ab chao" ('order out of chaos') which means that a new social order is
only possible through the planned destruction of the old order. The planetary god of Saturn is
characterized in astrology as one that brings suffering as Vera Alder stated in her book, The
Initiation of the World: "Pain and pressure are born upon this planet ...from the planet Saturn."
(1049:109)

In keeping with the Masonic axiom 'ordo ab chao', Saturn (Chronos) will produce massive
upheavals in the old order and Jupiter, the King Star or Zeus, will restore social order under a
new system of law. In The Illuminati Formula, Fritz Springmeier amplifies Alder’s model of
Saturnian severity as the cosmic force, which, in a classic dialectical operation, will merge with
Jupiter to create the Golden Age of Saturn:

"...the religion of Saturn is Saturnian gnosis—which turns out to be a rehash of the

gnosticism that the high level Satanists believe in. Saturn is severe. Jupiter is mild.
The merging of Saturn (severity) with Jupiter is the creation of the new Golden
Age—according to high level Satanic hierarchy teachings." (49:160)

It will be seen in the course of the Tribulation events that Saturn and Jupiter are astrological
representations of the Roman Pope and the Merovingian Antichrist respectively. The infiltration
of the Vatican early on by the Merovingian dynasty has been previously documented and many
of the popes have been agents of the Merovingians, including John XXIII and John-Paul II.

Saturn is the malevolent god of time, representing the period of chaos and severity that precedes
Jupiter, the god of benevolence. Saturn will rule over the first half of the Tribulation period,
producing the chaos which destroys the present social order. At mid-Tribulation, Jupiter (the
Merovingian king) will pass judgment on Saturn (the Roman Catholic Pope and Church) in a
global court of law for crimes committed during the Inquisition and the Holocaust. In a fiery
judgment, Jupiter (the Merovingian Beast) will overthrow Saturn (the Great Whore of Rome).
This cataclysmic event is first mentioned in Revelation 14 and described in vivid detail in
chapters 17 and 18:

And there followed another angel, saying, Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great
city, because she made all nations drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.
- Rev. 14:8

And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and talked with
me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the judgment of the great
whore that sitteth upon many waters: With whom the kings of the earth have
committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with
the wine of her fornication. So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness:
and I saw a woman sit upon a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy,
having seven heads and ten horns.
 having seven heads and ten horns.
And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and
precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations
and filthiness of her fornication: And upon her forehead was a name written,
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND
ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. And I saw the woman drunken with the
blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her,
I wondered with great admiration. And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst
thou marvel? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that
carrieth her, which hath the seven heads and ten horns. The beast that thou sawest
was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit, and go into perdition:
and they that dwell on the earth shall wonder, whose names were not written in the
book of life from the foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was,
and is not, and yet is. And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads
are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth. And there are seven kings: five
are fallen, and one is, and the other is not yet come; and when he cometh, he must
continue a short space. And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and
is of the seven, and goeth into perdition. And the ten horns which thou sawest are
ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one
hour with the beast. These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength
unto the beast. These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome
them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are
called, and chosen, and faithful. And he saith unto me, The waters which thou
sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes, and nations, and
tongues.
And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the whore, and
shall make her desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their
kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. - Rev. 17:1-17

Then shall commence the Great Tribulation—the reign of terror of the Beast.

Thus he said, The fourth beast shall be the fourth kingdom upon earth, which shall
be diverse from all kingdoms, and shall devour the whole earth, and shall tread it
down, and break it in pieces. And the ten horns out of this kingdom are ten kings
that shall arise: and another shall rise after them; and he shall be diverse from the
first, and he shall subdue three kings. And he shall speak great words against the
most High, and shall wear out the saints of the most High, and think to change
times and laws: and they shall be given into his hand until a time and times and the
dividing of time. - Dan 7:23-25

THE LION KING

The New Age plans for mankind to go 'back to the future' to the astrological Age of Leo, which
The Message of the Sphinx locates as beginning in 10,500 B.C.

"All the clues are in place. Geology and archeo-astronomy have already indicated
that the lion-headed Sphinx may be vastly older than Egyptologists currently believe,
dating not from 2500 B.C., but from 10,500 B.C.—the beginning of the astrological
Age of Leo...
"...Using sophisticated computer simulations of ancient skies, they unravel the riddle
of the Sphinx... Their discoveries led the authors to this question: Does mankind have
a rendezvous with destiny—a rendezvous not in the future, but in the distant past, at a
 a rendezvous with destiny—a rendezvous not in the future, but in the distant past, at a
precise place and time? The secrets can be kept no longer..." (132 back cover)

In the Egyptian Calendar Year of the Ages of the Zodiac, the First Age was the astrological Age
of Leo.

First Age Age of Leo dawned in 10948 BCE

Second Age Age of Cancer dawned in 8788 BCE
Third Age Age of Gemini dawned in 6628 BCE
Fourth Age Age of Taurus dawned in 4468 BCE
Fifth Age Age of Aries dawned in 2308 BCE
Sixth Age Age of Pisces dawned in 148 BCE
Seventh Age Age of Aquarius dawns in 2012 AD
Eighth Age Age of Capricorn dawns in 4172AD
Ninth Age Age of Sagittarius dawns in 6332 AD
Tenth Age Age of Scorpio dawns in 8492 AD
Eleventh Age Age of Libra dawns in 10652 AD
Twelfth Age Age of Virgo dawns in 12812 AD

The preeminence of Leo would seem to conflict with the commonly held New Age belief that
the most primitive eon was the Age of Virgo, when the Great Mother Goddess ruled over the
Motherland of MU. Recall that the inhabitants of Lemuria, which supposedly existed 18 million
years ago, were the ascended race of Great Initiates from the star system Sirius who left their
utopian realm to undertake a sacrificial mission to our solar system. A Masonic website,
Ancient Egyptians and the Constellations, explains the discrepancy in the Great Calendar Year
from the vantage point of the Egyptians, who worshipped the male creator-god, Hu, instead of
Mu, aka Nut, the mother of Isis and Osiris.

"The question arises as to why the Age of Leo was chosen by the Ancient
Egyptians as the First Age when clearly the Ancient Egyptians regarded Hu, the
Celestial Sphinx, as the giver of Life in the Beginning. The answer lies in the New
Beginning following the gradual Fall of Hu from his majestic position on the
horizon in 14000BCE...
"It could be argued that technically the New Beginning should have started at
the Dawn of the Age of Virgo in 13108BCE. Why wait until the Dawn of the Age
of Leo in 10948BCE for the New Beginning? Was it perhaps because Virgo was
female? Initially I would have suggested that this was not the case because the
Ancient Egyptians represented the heavens in the female form: that of Nut, the Sky
Goddess. However it must be remembered that Hu, the Celestial Sphinx and
Creator, was male … as evidenced by his Osiris Beard. Moreover the heavens
which Hu created were impregnated into the body of Nut. The female was clearly
subordinate to the male, and her purpose was one of childbearing. Hu represented
the Male Principle while Virgo and Nut represented the Female Principle...
"There is an additional, and perhaps more straight forward reason why Leo was
chosen over Virgo as the First Age. By 13108BCE the Celestial Sphinx had not
fallen sufficiently below the horizon at Giza for a New Age to be even considered.
However by 10948BCE the Ancient Egyptians had lost their affiliation with Hu.
The Celestial Sphinx no longer had the same relevance in their lives as he had had
for their ancestors." (903:14)

A New Age website explains the progression from the Age of Leo to the present threshold of
the Age of Aquarius as the downward spiral from female to male dominance. Aquarius will be
the turning point during which the human race will begin to reverse the male dominated social
the turning point during which the human race will begin to reverse the male dominated social
order and ascend toward another Golden Age of Virgo, 13,000 years in the future.

"Leo - The Lion - Age of Leo - Lion King - approximately 13,000 years ago -
the time the energies supposedly moved into a male cycle - to return to the
feminine - higher frequencies - 13,000 years later - Age of Aquarius...
"We are presently ending a century, a millennium, and now 180 degrees around
the star clock of the procession of the equinoxes. That was the time of the great
flood. That was the Age of Leo....Many ancient Star clocks depict the age of Leo.
The Flood happened somewhere in the beginning to the middle of Leo." (1051)
