The Hanged Man and Childhood's End

The Hanged Man tarot card has now been played. 

On 7/13/11 the girlfriend of multi-millionaire Arizona-based pharmaceutical company owner Jonah Shacknai was found hanging nude from the balcony of the historic Spreckels mansion where he lived in Coronado, CA.

Her hands and feet were bound.

In my two previous posts Those Crazy Twins and Lord Black and Lord White I identified the Divine Twins and the High Priestess tarot cards as revealed in current events. 

The timeline came from an online article by Jan Wicherink entitled "What the Tarot is Telling Us About 2012". 

Interestingly, Wicherink wrote that the last and most important Tarot card in the cycle of events leading up to the Great Celestial Conjunction of 2012 would be The Hanged Man.

Therefore, it was clear that prominent hanged man symbology should soon crop up in the news (the bound hands and feet being the giveaway).

One last card that reveals some interesting secrets about the End of Times and Second Coming of Christ, Card XII (12) the Hanged Man.  In card XII the Sacred Tree is depicted, the crossing of the ecliptic and Milky Way. The light radiated by the man’s head resembles the rays of the Sun. This Sun is placed on the Sacred Tree...the Sun on the ecliptic-Milky Way crossing.—What the Tarot is Telling Us About 2012

There is even more esoteric symbology in Crowley's version of The Hanged Man card in his Thoth Tarot deck.

Aleister Crowley is revealing that the Christian belief of the Second Coming of the historical figure Jesus Christ at the End of Times is identical to the death and rebirth of the Sun at the Great Celestial Conjunction.—What the Tarot is Telling Us About 2012

Another sync I noticed is that the name Shacknai is very similar to Shekhinah, a Hebrew word used to denote the "presence of God".

The Shekhinah is synonymous with the "Pillar of Cloud" that guided the Israelites out of Egypt.

Some believe the Shekhinah specifically represents the feminine attributes of the presence of God. 



The Shekhinah enters the Tabernacle in the form of a "holy pillar" of smoke.



Both of these definitions resonate with the idea of the Second Coming and the Return of the Divine Feminine. 

Similarly, the Biblical prophet Ezekial prophesied the Return of the Shekhinah in his vision of the Third Temple being built at the End Times (Ezek. 43:1-7).  

The mansion's location in Coronado, CA may also hold symbolic significance in that Coronado is Spanish for "The Crowned One".

This correlates to the 7th and highest Chakra level, the Crown.

On 7/18/11, Shacknai's son passed away from injuries sustained from a fall down the stairs in the same mansion seven days earlier on 7/11/11.

The Kabbalah Society's description of the overall meaning of the 2nd Degree tracing board and its two pillars (as depicted above) coincides with the meaning of the Chakras and the Shekhinah:

The individual who embarks on the Second Degree is about to undertake some interior journey, an ascent through the soul and spirit. The Masonic Lectures assign characteristics to these two pillars which suggest they represent paired opposites: first, they are said to be a memorial of the Pillar of Cloud and the Pillar of Fire that guided the Children of Israel (by day and night, respectively) during the Exodus;—KabbalahSociety.org

The unfortunate imagery of a young boy falling to his death down a staircase could also denote something else.

Perhaps an ill-fated signifier of the beginning of the end of the Aeon of the Child?

UPDATE:

This event also happens to tie in with my conspiracy theory regarding the Powers That Be and Phoenix, Arizona.  Shacknai's business is based in Phoenix and his deceased girlfriend Rebecca Zahau was also from Phoenix.

In my previous post I created the following illustration to show how Da Vinci's Vitruvian Man figure can be overlaid atop a map of Arizona to find the power points.

Note that the Spreckels Mansion in Coronado, CA is located on an exact straight-line path connected to the Left Arm of the Vitruvian Man figure.

I also circled Quartzsite, AZ on the map (it's in the same vicinity of the Left Arm). 

Quartzsite has been all over the news recently for illegally arresting citizens and trying to implement martial law.

The locations imply that these events are yet more activations of power points connected to Arizona.

Crossing the Ecliptic with Lord Black and Lord White

The number II of the High Priestess tarot card is a reference to the constellation of the Gemini Twins who we just encountered earlier this week in the personages of the Winklevoss Twins (see the previous post: Those Crazy Twins—The Calm Before the Storm).

Overall, the card denotes the two Great Celestial Conjunctions (the Ecliptic and Milky Way intersecting to create a Cross in the sky) that will take place in 2012.

The pillars represent the Milky Way. The white and black colours of the pillars represent opposites, the two opposite sides on the Milky Way where the ecliptic and Milky Way cross. The dark pillar can be associated with the Dark Rift (hence the dark colour) near the Sagittarius-Scorpio nexus while the white pillar can be associated with the Gemini-Taurus nexus.—What the Tarot is Telling Us About 2012

The goddess Isis shown wearing the solar disk in between the bull horns represents the Sun moving on its path along the ecliptic.



The first conjunction will occur in Gemini at the Gemini-Taurus nexus on the summer solstice of June 21, 2012.

The 2nd conjunction will happen near the Sagittarius-Scorpio nexus on the winter solstice of Dec 21, 2012.  (NOTE:  The two Celestial Crosses, or XX, relate to the number 20 revealed in the previous post). 

Synchromystically, we can see confirmation of this scenario continuing to be played out for us in current events.  Namely, in the recent imprisonment of Lord Conrad Black conjoining with the capture of crime lord James "Whitey" Bulger. 

The Two Pillars have been set up in preparation for the 2012 great galactic alignments.

Lord Black (left) and Lord Whitey (right).  The Two Pillars. 

On June 22nd (one day after the 2011 summer solstice) James "Whitey" Bulger, a notorious fugitive Boston crime lord, was captured in Santa Monica, CA after 16 years on the lam.

Two days later on June 24th Lord Conrad Black, a media baron-turned-corporate criminal, was sentenced to 42 months in prison by a Chicago judge named Judge Amy St. Eve. 





Isis and the Biblical Eve are one and the same.  Thus "Judge St. Eve" syncs to another version of the Tarot II card (above) depicting Saint Eve sitting in judgement as Isis the High Priestess.

As discussed in the previous post, 42 is the Jupiter number and "42 months" equals the 3.5 year period prophesied in the Bible's book of Revelations.

It's also worth noting that like something out of a Batman movie the characters in this reality skit seem to know their roles and even dress the part. 

The white-haired Whitey Bulger showed up to court in a "white hooded sweatshirt". 

Alternately, Lord Conrad Black appeared in court wearing a dark suit.

I see the two lords as emblematic of the foundations, or pillars, of a corrupt ruling class—control through Dissemination of Disinformation (i.e. the Media) paired with control through Brute Force and Fear (i.e. the Mob). 

In their simultaneously orchestrated downfall maybe now we are witnessing the darker aspect of the Ouroboros, the Beast eating itself.

In the Ouroboros illustration above a Lion and an Eagle devour eachother as the "Two Witnesses", the Sun and Moon, look on.

Whitey Bulger had a well-known obsession with the Lion statues in front of the New York Public Library. Whenever he was in NYC he would have his lackeyes meet him there.

The Eagle could refer to the double-headed Eagle, a historical symbol of world dominance adopted by the Bilderberg Group of which Lord Conrad Black was a former Steering Committee member.

The synchs have been rolling in hot and heavy lately.  It's a strange time indeed when all viewpoints—religious, alchemical, new age, synchromystic, scientific—are leading to the same conclusions. 

I believe that point of convergence is the point of truth.

In this scenario it seems the corrupt world order is in the process of, perhaps unwittingly, destroying itself through its own trickery and misdeeds.

It is our job, then, simply to witness the events while standing strong in our convictions and continuing to shine forth the light of truth.

Those Crazy Twins—The Calm Before the Storm

News of the Winklevoss Twins' settlement with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is another synchromystic marker on our road map to awakening.

35 Gemini. The Divine Twins, one of whom was fathered by Jupiter/Zeus thereby making him immortal while the other twin remained mortal.  This is the Dual Nature of Man.

In ancient Rome The Divine Twins were known as Castor and Pollux.  Synchromystically, this recalls the movie Face/Off.

Notice how the faces merge to form one open 'Third Eye' in the middle.

Nicolas Cage plays Castor Troy, and John Travolta is his foil and arch nemesis Sean Archer.  They are "Twins" in the sense that in order to defeat each other, they must first become each other by altering their faces through plastic surgery. 

The Greek word "Castor" translates as "Beaver".  In the movie The Beaver Mel Gibson plays a man whose Alter (or Twin) Ego awakens and emerges as a beaver puppet to save his life.  It is directed by and co-stars Jodi Foster, cinematically one of the first people to make Contact.

In a nice sync wink the movie poster (Above) shows Gibson wearing a PeriWINKLE blue-colored shirt. On the Greek version (Below) he is lying on a sheet of the exact same color.

Incidentally, the name of Travolta's character "Archer", or bow man, synchs to Dave "Bowman", our awakened Jupiter starbaby  from 2001: A Space Odyssey and 2010: The Year We Make Contact.

From a Fairytale-as-Myth perspective the Winklevoss Twins also resonate the story of Rip van Winkle who awoke after having slept for 20 years. 

"To be a Rip van Winkle, is to awake suddenly to profound changes in one's surroundings. This may be due to physical absence or to absence of mind."—Wikipedia

The Winklevoss Twins are "resting" their case after 3.5 years.  Maybe this signifies our Collective Consciousness completing its final stage of slumber before ultimately waking up.  Perhaps there is also a connection between their 3.5 years and Rip van Winkle's 20 years. (NOTE: 3.5 years = 42 months. 42 is the Jupiter number).

In the Bible, 3.5 years of days is linked to a pair of prophetic Twins known as the "Two Witnesses" (the Sun and the Moon).  Revelations 11 says that after the Two Witnesses have finished their testimony they will die for 3.5 days.

The people of Earth will rejoice during this time because they will no longer be tormented by plagues and weather anomalies (sound familiar?).  This temporary "death", or "slumber", could correlate to the Sun's sunspot cycle inexplicably becoming dormant.  Similarly, perhaps the Moon's figurative death occurred during last week's full lunar eclipse.

"But after the three and a half days the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet, and terror struck those who saw them."—Revelations 11:11

Likewise the number 20 in the Bible also denotes a waiting period, or the act of Expectancy.

"Twenty is the double of ten, and may in some cases signify its concentrated meaning. But its significance seems rather to be connected with the fact that it is one short of twenty-one, 21 - 1 = 20; that is to say, if 21 is the three-fold 7, and signifies Divine (3) completion as regards spiritual perfection (7), then twenty, being one short of 21, it would signify...expectancy."—Biblestudy.org

One of several references to a 20-year period appears in the book of 1 Samuel. The Israelites abandoned their idols and false gods and spiritually "rebuilt the Ark after 20 years" by returning to worshipping the one true God.

The Ark remained at Kiriath Jearim a long time—twenty years in all.  Then all the people of Israel turned back to the LORD.—1st Samuel 7:2-3

This syncs to a recent news story (see video above) of a guy who just completed building a biblical scale replica of Noah's Ark in the Netherlands.  He's loaded the boat with pairs of plastic animals—"Pairs" being another play on "Twins".

All these crazy Twin syncs are converging to let us know that the waiting period is about to be over.  It's Business Time ya'll.

The Arrival

The Event (episode 122; "The Arrival") aired on Monday, May 23rd and the similarities between the weather anomalies on the show and what we're experiencing left me wondering whether Life is imitating Art or vice versa.

In case you don't follow the show, a whole race of human-like extra-terrestials are trying to come to Earth through an astral portal because their home planet is about to be destroyed by a solar supernova.

The show opens with a sudden tornado/earthquake.  The alien's leader Sophia explains that the portal is impacting Earth's precession causing us to feel geological disruptions along the 38th Parallel. 

Soon, small earthquakes and floods are reported in the U.S. and in other locations all around the world.

Real life parallels...

Real life: May 22 - Tornado in Joplin, MO kills 125. "Finger of God" twister still raging thru AR, MS, and TN.

Real life: May 20th - The worst flooding of the Mississippi River in 100 years.

Next up: A Volcanic Eruption...

On the show: A news reporter comments on ash spewing from a volcano at Mt. Shasta.

In real life: May 21 - Iceland's Grimsvotn volcano erupts spewing 12 miles of ash.

In the show's final scenes, a statue of Jesus is contrasted with the arrival of the alien's ship (which looks more like a planet) in the background. 

It's also revealed that the extra-terrestials once lived on Earth before humans did.  Thus, "The Arrival" is actually a return which is paralleled with the biblical "Second Coming" of Christ...

On the show: The alien ship emerges from a vortex in the sky over Brazil's famous 'Christ the Redeemer' statue.

In real life: May 21 - Lightening in a vortex pattern in the sky behind a crucifix in Kansas.
