Obama & Jacob

I've changed my mind a couple of times over Obama too. Observing what he does on ceremonial occasions (starting with returning that Churchill statue when taking office) I've since been kept informed that ceremonial anomalies (like the date 'mistake' in Westminster Cathedral) are worth considering. Depending on your point of view and openness to interpretation they have  significance. Anybody who rejects that completely hasn't looked into the very architecture and plan of Washington D.C. 

So I sought out his 9/11 speech and aside from being a part of the Bible that reaches out to Muslims and Christians (both a Hebrew and Islamic prophet) it also relies strongly on earth changes for metaphors. My question is what if those aren't metaphors? Earth changes are the biggest story of 2011 and maybe much further back.

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. 

Therefore, we will not fear, even though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea. 

Though its waters roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling, there’s a river whose streams shall make glad 

the City of God; the holy place of the Tabernacle of the Most High. 

God is in the midst of her. 

She shall not be moved. 

God shall help her just at the break of dawn. 

The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved. 

He uttered his voice. 

The earth melted. 

The Lord of Hosts is with us. 

The God of Jacob is our refuge. 

Come behold the works of the Lord, has made desolations in the Earth. 

He makes wars cease to the ends of the Earth. 

He breaks the bough and cuts the spear in two. 

He burns the chariot in fire. 

Be still and know that I am God. 

I will be exalted among the nations. 

I will be exalted in the Earth. 

The Lord of Hosts is with us. 

The God of Jacob is our refuge.

9/11 & Terence McKenna Synchronism (The World & It's Double)

Alchemical Archives writes: On the 10 year anniversary of  the WTC attacks  still find myself more interested in the many synchronicities involving this date over the actual event itself, which needs to be put into perspective against the horror thats been exported in its name. Because this date is so embedded in our consciousness its allowed a window on to synchronicity other dates have not provided (although i suspect all moments sync under inspection). I know Terence's Timewave Theory has many holes in it but maybe he was close to something else, maybe events send ripples forward and backward through time pointing to a holographic model of spacetime leaking into our linear model of existence. There is a WTC reference at 51.11 the talk was given on 11 September 1993

In this lecture, Terence McKenna talks about the tragic situation we humans have placed ourselves in, and ways in which the boundry dissolution effects of psychedelic medicines can possibly save our species from what appears to be a certain extinction. . . . "What the psychedelic experience does, really, is it stretches the envelope of the imaginable."

"It seems to me that culture, at least this culture, is a shabby lie."

"We have the tools that would allow us to sculpt paradise, but we have the reflexes and value systems of anthropoid apes of some sort. . . . You don't get serial killers in the chipmunk population."

"We live at the end of a thousand year binge on the philosophical position known as materialism, in its many guises. And the basic message of materialism is that world is what it appears to be, a thing composed of
matter, and pretty much confined to its surface."

"We're in, essentially, a tragic situation. A tragic situation is a catastrophe when you know it."

For approximately 500 years [sciences] argument for its pre-eminence was the beautiful toys that it could create: aircraft, railroads, global economies, television, spacecraft. But that is a fool's argument for truth! I mean, that's after all how a medicine show operates, you know: the juggler is so good, the medicine must be even better! This is not an entirely rational way to proceed.

Images: Oculus, Jones/Ginzel (1998)
Location: Chambers Street/World Trade Center, Park Place

Oculus consists of 301 mosaic panels by artists Kristin Jones, Andrew Ginzel and Rinaldo Piras. The project presents the eyes of three hundred individual New Yorkers translated from a photographic study conducted by Jones/Ginzel into stone mosaic by the classically trained Piras. The centerpiece of the work is an elliptical glass and stone mosaic floor, with a magnificent micro mosaic eye at the center of an ultramarine vortex with the image of the City of New York woven into the picture.

The Book of Aquarius - Wikileaks of Alchemy

Book Of Aquarius

Jay Weidner is an hermetic scholar and the most learned person I know of in Alchemy. Lately he has been saying in interviews that the Book of Aquarius is the real deal in terms of esoteric knowledge being released online. I've been getting the updates now for a few months so it's still a work in progress as the anonymous author continues with changes, but in terms of super secrets spilled online, such as the elixir of life this is apparently the real deal.
