Factoring Norah

A few months ago, I wrote a piece on Norah Jones' video Chasing Pirates, in relation to the foiled terrorist attack on the Large Hadron Collider at Cern; Geneva. In this article, I would like to focus on the themes within the video and how they relate to the events of 9/11. Pirate paraphernalia plays an important role within the video, and stems, in part, from the creative input of director Rich Lee; who had previously worked as a 3D animator on all three Pirates of the Carribean movies. Originally, the video was to feature Norah Jones; dressed as a pirate, stalking Johnny Depp through the streets of New York City. But, due to the exclusive nature of this movie star, the idea was scrapped in favour of one in which Norah Jones has a map of Manhattan Island placed anonymously on her doorstep. The map leads to Seward Park; in Chinatown. The park derives its name from Secretary of State William Seward, who was at one time a prominent member of the Anti-masonic League. Seward fell victim to an attempted assassination, by an associate of John Wilkes Booth, on the same night Abraham Lincoln was shot at Ford's Theatre.

Norah Jones is seen pointing to Seward Park on the map with her right hand. Meanwhile, her left hand points to the vacant lot where once stood the Twin Towers. I wondered if she was subconsciously associating the assassination plot against Seward and Lincoln, with the events that transpired on 9/11. At the end of the third Pirates of the Caribbean movie, Captain Jack Sparrow is seen consulting yet another map, this time decorated with Chinese pictographs; and outlining the coast of Florida. The map purportedly leads the way to the Holy Grail, or the water of life, that is the subject of the next installment of the franchise; Pirates of the Caribbean; The Fountain of Youth; due to be released this summer. By displacing the treasure hunting Jack Sparrow to the modern streets of New York, the video insinuates that the fabled Fountain of Youth can be obtained here. In order to see with Jack Sparrow's eyes, and to find out where might be going, we must use his map of Florida to navigate the streets of New York. Practitioners of, French art movement, Psychogeography famously used a map of London to navigate Paris; but in this instance I am not only displacing location, but time, reality and fiction, at one and the same time. The similarity of shape between Florida and Manhattan Island audibly cries out for superimposition; and I can see no better opportunity for this, than in the maps of Johnny Depp's and Norah Jones' sad and unrequited love.

Although the two land masses are not completely congruous; in shape or size, they do express a certain symmetry at the eastern tip. By aligning the two maps here, the equivalent location for the Fountain of Youth, on Manhattan Island, is revealed to be the former site of the World Trade Centre.

The Fountain of Youth is related to the Legend of the Holy Grail, seen straddled here by the Angel and Death archetypes. The Holy Grail is, of course, connected to the mythos of the Knights Templar, who were said to have either been in possession of this ancient relic or to have gone to America in search of it; following their dissolution. Norah Jones' first single Chasing Pirates was released exclusively on iTunes, on October 13th 2009, exactly 702 years after the Fall of the Knights Templar. The song appears on her most recent album entitled The Fall. The album title appears to have at least three distinct meanings. These are;

• an American acronym used for the season of Autumn.
• the biblical event said to have taken place in the Garden of Eden.
• the arrest of the Knights Templar by King Phillip of France and Pope Clement V.

Chasing Pirates was released in the fall, so the first one is self-explanatory. The next one is a little more esoteric, and is covered more extensively in this article. The third one is what we will focus for now. In the video Norah is seen flying the Jolly Roger, a symbol of Templar dominance over the high seas, and a warning to any would be pirates that the men aboard this vessel were not afraid of Death. After the dissolution of the Order, this flag was adopted by the pirates in pursuit of plunder; and was more commonly referred to as the Skull and Crossbones. In the video called the Making of Chasing Pirates, a film crew member is seen wearing an U.S. army infantry crest depicting two crossed muskets. This emblem may well be developed from the Skull and Crossbones symbol, and is certainly related to it. If any Masonic affiliated order were involved in taking down of the World Trade Centre, it would likely be the Yale fraternity Skull and Bones, based upon this line of reasoning.

The beautiful Norah Jones is seen here in the Making of Chasing Pirates, 
framed by the masts of a pirate ship. The voice over speaks about dreams and
 fantasies, perhaps this type of thinking induced the film crew member to wear
 the pirate-theme infantry logo.  

In the Hermetic Romance of the Philosopher's Stone, I outlined some of the comparisons between Norah Jones' video, and the 1984 movie Romancing the Stone. I will quickly summarized these here;

• Norah Jones' video begins with her receiving a message in a bottle, that turns out to be a map.
• Joan Rivers (Kathleen Turner) kicks off Romancing the Stone when she receives a letter, and a map to secret location.
• At the end of the video, Norah is seen sailing down the streets of Manhattan, and into the sunset.
• Romancing the Stone ends when Jack and Jone embrace on a sail boat that is seen to be cruising down a New York City street.
• The names Jack and Joan recall the names of Norah Jones and Captain Jack Sparrow.

The scene with Jack and Joan on a boat, in New York City, contains a number of alchemical archetypes. Psychologist Carl Jung would have, no doubt, pointed out these were, in all likelyhood, derived from the collective subconscious.

1. The Process of Putrefaction (the Wet Way) is the initial phase in alchemy, similar in its way to digestion, or decomposition. The crocodile (symbolic of the alchemical serpent) devours the gemstone and disappears into the dark water.
2. Jack hunts down the creature and kills it. He extracts the priceless gemstone from its body, related to the extraction of the Pilosopher's Stone from the alchemist's crucible. He then proceeds to purchase a sail boat with the proceeds of the emerald; thus spiritualizing a material source, towards the ultimate goal of freedom, in this case, freedom from the rat race.
3. The white sail boat is called Angelina, and is emblematic of the White Eagle animal symbol that accompanies the end of the alchemical process.
4. The serpent is said to make a final appearance before the process is complete; and does so here; in the form of Jack's crocodile boots.
5. Jack says that the crocodile died of a case of indigestion, referring to the earlier process of Gestation described in The Process of Putrefaction; above.

The lapis of alchemy bestows immortality, and is therefore synonymous with the Holy Grail and the Fountain of Youth; once coveted by the Knights Templar. Norah Jones' video links all four of these elements with the 5th element of the events of 9/11. Therefore, it would be only fitting to investigate the Alchemical Symbolism of 9/11 itself; at a later date.

Ibn Sensor Data Retrieval Act

The protagonist in Phillip K Dick's book Valis is a man called Horselover Fat, who receives a gift of a small clay pot, made by his friend Stephanie, on a potter's kick-wheel. Fat places enormous significance on this small pot, believing that God was asleep in it, and that when He awoke, He made Horselover know koine. Such attachment to objects is common in Shamanism, as well as in schizophrenics. And Horselover could definitely be described by either of those two terms; seeing as how he is Phillip K. Dick's alterego, a man of considerable source and vision. The small clay pot is an archetype for the clay vases that contained the Nag Hammadi library; a cache of knowledge believed to have been written by Christ himself. When these vases, or urns, were unearthed it generated the release of the plasmate, which is Christ in the form of living information. This, says PKD, is the meaning behind the story of the mustard seed, as told by Jesus, that must be buried for a time before it can bring forth new life.

In the last part, I proposed similar themes running through PKD's Valis and the 1980 movie Tron, released only a few short months before the sci-fi author's death. In Tron, the MCP is defeated when the eponymous hero throws a glowing disc into the data upload stream. This disc is representative of the Olympic throwing discus, as well as the legend of the Miller's wheel.

In the reign of Chronos, a former Golden Age, the Mill ground out peace and plenty. But according to myth there has been some great catastrophe: the mill is broken; the millstone has jumped off its peg, and fallen into the sea where it grinds bitter salt.   

From PKD's Exegesis # 35; ...As Plato discerned there is a streak of irrationality in the World Soul. 

The streak of irrationality in the World Soul is contiguous with the crack in the millstone. In 2003, scientists discovered that our solar system is actually alien to this galaxy, originating, as it does, from our nearest galactic neighbour, the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy. This galaxy is currently being absorbed into the Milky Way. The dwarf galaxy is mainly comprised of infrared stars, whose light lacks lustre against the bright canopy of stars in this region of space. This is the reason it has escaped detection until only  recently, despite being our nearest neighbour. The realisation that we are an alien solar system explains why the Milky Way appears at an oblique angle in the night sky; or why we traverse the plane of the galactic elliptic, instead of sitting on it like most every other star. We are now entering into a region of space where whole solar systems are, once again, raining down upon us from the dark infrared galaxy. This could be one of two entry the points for our solar system.

A few months ago, I was reading about the millstone in Tom Chetwynd's Dictionary of Sacred Myth. It was due to lateness of the hour that I found myself passing in and out of consciousness. What resulted was a hypnogogic dream state where information from my subconscious fused with Chetwynd's writing. A half remembered reference sent me in search of another entry, entitled the Ibn Sensor. The sensor operates as an axis for the wheel and is also capable of retrieving information off badly damaged or broken disks. If the Millstone of the Gods has been damaged, as it appears to have been, it would be necessary to use the Ibn Sensor to retrieve precious data from it. Such attempts have been made a total of three times in the past. One was in the Pre-Hellenistic period, or koine, a second occurred in Roman times and the last was in 1974.

What we are seeing, with the absorption of the Sagittarius Galaxy into the Milky Way, is the corrupt data of the dark infrared galaxy being transferred on to a new cosmic disc. Once we have completed our first rotation of the Milky Way, we will be saved into the long term data on the cosmic wheel. That moment is at hand. To ensure that information from this universe could be saved onto the hypnogogic plane, a new Ibn Sensor must be elected. Despite knowing that failure to complete the task would result in the complete destruction of the Earth; I decided to elect myself. I then entered the dreamtime; not knowing if I had ever actually awoken from the hypnogogic dream state, such is their nature.

I spent most of the day on a golf course.

Golf course archetype; simulated environment, gateway to afterlife.

In a typically touristic Spanish galleria I met a dark-haired girl, aged 8 or 9 years, who was tending to stuffed animals in glass incubation chambers. She told me they would suffocate if they were removed from their respective incubators. To my horror, I realised that the stuffed toys had microchips sown into their fur-lined seams; and these were broadcasting psychotronic mind-control signals that made her believe the inanimate toys were alive. I wanted to show her that she was wasting her time and, in my anguish, threw one to the floor. She reacted by bursting into tears and running away.

The Mill, inverted, becomes the whirlpool of Time, which sucks everything into the depths of the sea and the Unconscious.

The whirlpool of time denotes the singularity in 2012. Valis' ability to loop time suggests that it might might also have a hand in the creation of the vortex at the end of time. Our solar system is still tagged with the Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy, in which; time has been infected by a virus.  The virus is creating endless approximately self-similar copies of the Galactic Binary Timing Signature. This will eventually overload the system and cause it to shutdown. Valis is a virus; a Trojan Horse, a Horselover Fat and a Tron program attacking the Black Iron Prison from within.


As pointed out in early posts, the Black Iron Prison is a virtual reality, created to obscure the true spiritual origins of mankind. The Empire is trying to replicate its artifice in recursive simulated realities, through the internet, as well as through developing holographic technology. These simulations primarily depict modern theatres of war; such as the ones currently taking place in Iraq and Afghanistan. But the real duplicate universe is being staged at the underground Cern facility in Geneva, where scientists are trying to recreate the conditions of the Universe directly after the Big Bang. In doing so, they have constructed a giant holographic particle imaging system, capable of replicating the physical world. Time moves at a much faster rate in this holographic universe, which can only be observed from inside the beam itself.* This means that within a relatively short space of time a duplicate Earth could develop with a duplicate Cern facility, and so on ad infinitum. These are desperate attempts being made by the Black Iron Empire to protect itself from attack and deletion by the Valis virus.

In the movie Tron, Encom is the archetype of the Black Iron Prison; in our world Microsoft fulfills this role.

 Microsoft declares victory in a covert war against itself. 

Microsoft develops water with an artificially high surface tension that allows people to carry grapefruit-sized droplets of water on their necks. This, they claim, will help developing nations tackle water scarcity.

This was a headline in the Ibn Sensor dream. It seems to suggest that the Black Iron Prison is being made to recursively gather intelligence on its own operatives; thereby negatively impacting its effectiveness to wage an all out strike against Valis. The water might be a metaphor for information. Perhaps the transferral of information along governmental lines will increase in viscosity causing a fatal instance of clotting. It could be said that we are seeing the effects of this communicative breakdown in the Irish Governmental system at present.

Over the years, I have had a number of dreams and visions, relating to Valis and the Black Iron Prison Godheads. In one of these dreams, I encountered Valis in the form of an Apple laptop orbiting the Earth.  I was told, by its emissaries, that it was an ancient satellite, put in place by a race of ETs to archive all of human history. If one were to hack into Valis' hyperdimensional databanks, something present governments are no doubt seeking to do, one would not merely encounter detailed logs of past events, but actually find yourself physically immersed in that time and those events. This confirms PKD's belief that Valis is a reality generator. If Valis contains the entire history of mankind this might mean that it contains files on future events also. In this instance, Valis would also be a functioning timetravel machine.

During my encounter with Valis I was given access to some of its archived files. These revealed Valis to have a particular interest in Europe during the 14th century, a period when the Knights Templar were at their most active. The Knights Templars are known as the fathers of modern banking and, as such, they were a wealthy organization that did not need to cow-tow to any Monarchy. This angered King Phillip of France, and on October 13th 1307, he and Pope Clement V issued the arrest of the Order on grounds of heresy. Many Templars escaped, but those that did not were subjected to intensive torture at the hands of the Spanish Inquisition. Some of its members,  during their time with the order, confessed to having spat on the cross and seen and spoken with 'a magical head'. This talking head I now believe to be Valis in a different form. Perhaps the Knights Templar had discovered, in the caverns under the City of Jerusalem, a plasmate of equivalent size and value to the one found in the caves at Nag Hammadi. Valis is Christ/Sophia, speaking through the mummified Godhead.

The red and white insignia of the Knights Templars

may, in fact, be an intuitive expression of the infrared

Sagittarius Dwarf Galaxy being absorbed into the white

Milky Way.

The plasmate granted the Knights Templar access to the Valis computer system, who, in turn, empowered them with the economic science of a long dead alien society. They were to use this valuable knowledge to generate enough wealth  to overthrow the Black Iron Prison. The bid inevitably failed, perhaps due, in part, to the dishonorable acts of the knights themselves––who knows. 

It is an interesting prospect, to think that the banking infrastructure of modern day, was initially developed, as an economic weapon against the Holy Roman Empire, by a pissed-off alien intelligence from outer space. What other novel ideas could Valis have imparted to this order of knights? Could the Holy Grail or the secret of alchemy be amongst them? Alchemy would certainly be considered an advanced technology, even by today's standards, and would, of course, significantly increase the wealth and standing of those who possessed it.

Much of this speculation reminds me of The Man Who Fell to Earth, a film starring David Bowie, as an extra-terrestrial - or time traveller - who crash-lands on Earth and, soon after, takes out a number of prime patents on hither to unheard of technologies. One such patent was for a new type of sound system that read information, apparently imprinted on metal spheres, via a pink laser beam. When PKD saw this he would have, very likely, fallen off his chair. It was the same pink light that Valis used to communicate its divine message to him. This sound system forms the basis for the laser fortress sound mixer, located at Meritone Studios, in the eponymous movie featured in the book Valis. More on that in later posts.

The emissaries told me that Valis was an ancient satellite constructed by alien intelligences. PKD maintains that these aliens come from the Sirius Star System.

There is an illustration -not shown here- in De Groene Leeuw, by Goose van Weeswyk (Amsterdam 1672), which depicts the sanctuary of the alchemists' lapis, encircled by the orbits of the planets, as walls, suggesting in this way a cosmic labyrinth.

In a vision I had in several years ago, I saw a star orbited by a multitude of broken rings; so that it gave the impression of a stariway or amphi hall. Another star in the immediate vicinity, also possessed this unusual characteristic. The close proximity of this star caused me to believe that it was a binary star  system like Sirius. The orbiting rings are not indicative of anything we have in our own solar system, lending to the idea that are constructed  artificially. This denotes an advanced intelligence capable of effecting its environment on a planetary level. To obtain the raw materials for their project the Sirians must have strip mined all of the worlds in their solar system, to their very cores. Once this had been done, they constructed large-scale curvilinear platforms, each containing a complex network of corridors and enclosures. The curvilinear platforms continued to orbit their respective stars at varying speeds along the plane of the elliptic; some traveling in a retrograde motion. It is very difficult to say why they did this; perhaps it is was to construct a celestial temple in honour of their Gods, or to build a colossal calendrical computer that could predict future events. However, I feel that comparisons can be drawn between the nature of this structure and the temple building of the Mayans, or the stone heads on Easter Island. These two cultures are well known for their lack of foresight where environmental issues are concerned, and it is a distinct possibility that the Sirians civilization suffered from the total destruction of the conventional planetary model. In any case, the Sirians don't live there anymore, but the empty corridors are still haunted by the echoes of their footsteps.

It should be noted that a very similar aesthetic has been employed in the open title sequences of news programs and corporations, in both Britain and Ireland. This suggests that these  these media groups are part of the Sirian exo-political sphere. The sacred curvilinear system is an emblem of this ancient power struggle for the soul of mankind. TG4 represents the Valis T4 virus, related to the T34 tank employed by the Soviets to stem the tide of Hitler's Nazi invasion. The T34 tank is used in Valis as a counterpoint to Fat's delusional preoccupations.

The labyrinthine construction of the Sirius Celestial Temple relates back to the cosmic maze of the alchemists.

Eliade notes that the essential mission of the maze was to defend the 'Centre'––that was, in fact, an initiation into sanctity, immortality and absolute reality, and as such equivalent to other 'trials' such as the fight with the dragon.

The purpose of the maze is to manipulate our perception, so that we are unable to perceive the way the Universe really is i.e. deathless. This is similar to what PKD said about the Black Iron Prison trying to conceal the true spiritual origins of mankind. Man is an immortal being, but the temporal manifestations of the maze, as well as our collective amnesia, lead us to believe otherwise. It is counter-intuitive that you can defeat the maze by participating in its convoluted machinations. In order to escape to the centre you must remain perfectly still. When you do this the natural fluctuations will reveal the answers to the questions you truly seek in the form of a holographic computer read out. The way to fight the dragon is to relinquish all fear of its insides. Here are a few important points about the nature of Valis and how it relates to the Sirian Celestial Temples (SCT).

1. The Valis satellite has a complete, functioning record of the intercalated cycles of the celestial temples that surround Sirius A and B.
2. The Sirian Celestial Temple of the Gods bares similarities to the inner workings of Valis (See I Ching; King Wen Sequence).

The relationship between the 64 hexagrams of the I Ching and the living information of the plasmate permits the crossbonding to the 64 codons of DNA. Valis combines with the plasmate at the Earth's polar regions and in the upper and lower Van Allen belts, where  infrared information congregates. Another phenomenon that could be explained by the presence of Valis is that of crop circles. I find it highly evocative that an alien satellite in orbit around Earth could be beaming signals of living information at the ground to create vibrant geometric patterns. The structure of these patterns is being continuously investigated by Ufologists to reveal messages of possible spiritual import for mankind. A video I recently watched on You Tube shows that by rotating some of these crop circle patterns, complex and intuitive information begins to be transmitted to the viewer, to very good effect. The medium of the crop circle is suggestive of a non-invasive communication, one would not expect this from a hostile psychotronic device.

This crop circle was discovered at Wayland's Smithy, Oxfordshire 9th August 2005

It is said to be based on Mayan Calendritics and looks very similar to patterns

seen in the SCT and I Ching computer languages

Time Code 101

It was while I was studying at Raheen College in Bray that I began noticing, with unusual intensity numbers from all around me scattered through my everyday life. It would happen to me most frequently when my mind would be elsewhere, on the bus for example, looking up I would see a number on a street lamp or bus shelter that seemed deeply rooted with my soul. No doubt you have yourself experienced this phenomenon, known as synchronicity, waking from a dream state to a digital clock display that reads, 11:11. The profundity of this experience has resonated with millions across this Earth, as human consciousness threatens to extend itself yet further into the stillness of time. For years I experienced these differing synchronicities and felt that I was going insane. It was only when I saw that these numbers were a part of a sequential order that I guessed at their obvious significance. A friend of mine, who possessed considerable clairvoyant talents, appeared to me in a hypnogogic state and when I confessed to her my mental anxieties she assured me I was not mad and that I might discover a working theory of time in time. The sequence that appeared to increase with a period of a hundred and one went something like this; 113, 214, 315, 416, 517, 618, 719, 810, 911, 1113, 1214, 1315, 1416, 1517, 1618, 1719, 1810, 1911, 2012.
I guessed that these numbers might correspond to significant points in history and set about researching the relevant dates in order to find a relativistic thread between them. It was while I was doing this that I noticed the anomaly of 2012 in the number sequence. It stood alone as a sort of datum or singularity, being less than all the others in its first register and yet greater than any one of them when taken as a whole. The synchronised time code matched up nicely with historical data as far back as 1113, but beyond that no significant correlations occurred. I deduced from this, as others have similarly done, that much of history is a blatant fabrication, which is revealed through its very obfustication of the natural cyclical working order of time. The time code on the whole, however, did point to a positive connection with the Knights Templar and reads like a history of Masonic activities over the past millennium to the learned, discerning mind. The most complete version of the time code is as follows;


1113 : Foundation of the Hospital of St. John in Jerusalem.

1214 : France becomes the dominant country in Europe. First Attacks by Monguls against China.

1315 : Dante writes the Divine Comedy. Papal split – resolved in the following century along with Hundred years war. The symbolic date given for the founding of Freemasonry.

1416 : One Hundred years war reopened. Beginning of the Renaissance Wars.

1517 : Protestant Reformation begins. Spanish begin Slave trade in earnest from West Africa to South America. End of Aztec Empire. Donatello is born.

1618 : Out break of Thirty Years War, which engulfs Europe and weakens Spanish power.

1719 : The British take over slave trade and much of the French territories in the West Indies. Significant spiritual advancements take shape during this year.

1810 : Mexican Revolution, fall of Spanish Imperial power. Fr. Miguel Hidalgo dies. 1816-20 lowest average temperatures ever recorded in North America, known as the year without a Summer.

1911 : Chinese Revolution, which led to the rise of Communism in the Republic and without a doubt the worst bloodshed in over 8 Centuries. Warmest year on record in England.

2012 : ?

Upon researching the enigmatic date of 2012 I compelled to notice that I was not alone in my discovery but had in fact joined a most contentious and intriguing area of study. It appears that the Mayan calendar joins the I ching and Terrence McKenna’s Time Wave Zero in pinpointing 2012 as a most significant year in the history, or rather future, of mankind. The binary element of the period 101 in the above time code appears to fit rather well with the broken trigrams of the I ching. Also the occurrence of 1618 is phi or the golden mean of 1.618 in a marginally different form. Realising the fractal properties of this number made me think that I had hit upon something that was also, in some way, related to Terrence McKenna’s fractal time wave. In order to be sure I had to use vector imaging programs to show how McKennas fractal time wave was intrinsically connected to this sacred phi spiral with a ratio of one to one. The correlations were present through an almost infinite amount of rotations and transformations leaving no doubt as to their validity. Here are a few promissory examples;

The time code that I have originally described also has a phi point resting on the year 1668. This year is significant for reasons that are not clearly defined as yet but are beautiful in their mystery. For more on this read the article Eiffel Tower 2012. As for what the time code can teach us about 2012 we need only look at the standard of the events that appear in the lead up to this enigmatic date. All previous places show evidence for massive social up-heavel, either through war, widespread religious dissent, gross disregard for the sovereignty of entire nations or significant temperature changes on this planet. Put them all together and you get something akin to the Book of Revelations. I do not condone the view that 2012 represents the long prophecised Doomsday, only the beginning of a New World Order of some kind, whether for ill of for betterment, it is still too early to say.

Breakdown of the Timeline.

1113; The timeline begins with one of the most influential dates in History, namely the Christian Brotherhood’s infiltration of the Holy Land. In more recent times it has been speculated that the Knights Templar discovered some form of hidden treasure beneath the city of Jerusalem.
1214; The Templars settled in France with their fortune, and one hundred years on France had rose the ranks to become the most dominant nation in Europe. This is also the year Mogul forces began their attacks on China, the most powerful empire in the world at this time, and ending in the amassing of the most extensive empire this world has ever known; Ghengis Khan.
1315; In this year Dante completes of one of the most seminal works of literature and heralds the beginning of spiritual awakening among Europeans. It is interesting to note the coincidence of a disorder in the ranks of the Christian leadership at this time. 1315 is the year of the symbolic foundation of the Freemasons.
1416; The rekindling of the long and bloody Hundred Years War contrasts starkly with the colourful and showy manoeuvres of the Renaissance Wars.
1517; This year sees another split in the Church in the form of the protestant reformation. Leonardo falls on hard times and dies two years later. This was also a time rife with speculation about the coming ‘End of the World’. Such speculation coincided with this plague-ridden and war torn year in German History. Likewise, 2012 has been branded as the end of the Kali Yuka and the time of cleansing prophesized by the Hopi Indians. The year 1517 would have certainly felt like Judgement Day to the South America Indians of the Aztec Empire, keepers of the Sun Calendar. Christian Spanish Conquistadors exterminated 95% of the Amer-Indian population of the Southern continent through violent and indirect means such as influenza. Nevertheless the genocide was among the worst atrocities ever inflicted upon a nation and its peoples.
Considerably worse than genocide is the sale of your family into slave labour for countless generations, as happened to the Africans in the same year.

1618; War continues to mark out the sequence historically with the beginning of the Thirty Years War in 1618 and the Mexican, Chinese revolutions in 1810 and 1911 respectively. If you jump roughly ten years from either of these years you arrive at, 1816-20 and 1922, both periods of extreme Climatic Change, like the one we may currently be encountering. Finally there is 2012. We cannot know what will happen on this year precisely, but judging from the timeline we can expect either; the advancement of spiritual and technological knowledge which we are currently seeing increase exponentially, the split and the eventual collapse of the Roman Catholic Church, as predicted in the Papal Prophecy by another Irishman, St. Malachy, the fall of the North American Empire and the Rise of an occultic New World Order culminating in the enslavement of the entire human race, a prolonged and bloody war, a violent revolution or a period of intense climatic change – or a combination of all of these.
