IT'S ABOUT AWAKENING:
This article will show connections between various symbols. A primary set of symbols concern our perception of the reality. One form is ancient, yet still appears in dreams and coincidences. It is the "dome of the world" shape formed by the circle of the horizon with the sky canopy. In three dimensions this can be shown as an Omphalos Stone (see graphic below).
The dome is our perception when standing on a surface, such as the planet Earth. In space, the shape of our perception can be represented as a space-time sphere. The soccer ball (international football) dodecahedrons illustrated above are one form of such a perception sphere.
We are finding, by dream-coincidence and research, more and more symbols that may have a similar meaning, such as a domed building, an umbrella, a grandfather clock, an arched doorway, a jukebox, one's house, and the Siva-linga of Eastern religions.
The start of this search for the meaning of the dome shape came from a dream told to me by Jeff in 1990. It is apparent that our dome-perception Omphalos Stone will undergo a change:
I was on a starship in space with other people. An extremely important message was trying to come in but it couldn't until we first ejected the garbage. I ran frantically and managed to eject it. The message came in over a console with lights flashing. A doctor appeared and led the crew into a bedroom. He began to work on a yard-high mound of jelly-like substance at the foot of the empty bed. Suddenly, I saw a human-sized hand puppet, a male/female pair with only one hand-hole. They fell back into a vat of water. I went over and looked down at them under the water and knew they had to change. They had to change.
A related theme to be examined in this article is the symbolic meaning of being dead, asleep, or not awake. Often this seems to involve a male or male god who is dead and laying in a prone position, while a female or goddess is above or on top of him. With the awakening or resurrection, the male stands up alive. This general theme is quite universal throughout the word, but there are variations.
This strange symbolism seems to be speaking about humanity. The god and the goddess may represent the dual consciousness of mankind. In Jeff's dream above, the duality change symbol was in the from of the puppet pair undergoing a baptism. The healed dome will "jell" here in time, turn into stone, so-to-speak. Jeff had another dream prior to the one above, in which a paratrooper dressed in white came down from the sky and made him stand up from his prone position.
The dome of the world or Omphalos symbol connects with the duality symbol through the ancient Eastern idea that the phallus implanted in the vagina represents the all-pervading space of the universe.
The meaning behind this may be related to messages to the effect that we each create our own reality individually, yet there is an en mass nature to it by a higher level agreement. One could picture this symbolically as many domes connected together by threads of Spider Grandmother into a big web.
An Eastern symbol for this is Indra's Net, which is a "net of jewels" (or pearls) ,each of which reflects like a mirror and contains the reflection of each of the others. The Internet World Wide Web is a similar modern symbol.
The cycle of laying down dead seems related to the time cycle in the lower three levels of consciousness, associated with the chakras. The critical leap is from the third chakra to the fourth. The third chakra at the solar plexus, is basically the ego-centered will to succeed, and is represented by a ten petaled lotus flower and by the color yellow. The fourth chakra is at the heart, where love and compassion and a realization of our connectedness is realized. It is represented as a twelve petaled lotus flower and the color green.
This critical leap is often shown as three and one half, as the midpoint of seven. In some cases it seems to be represented as the fourth step. Somewhat paradoxically, it appears that seven steps or stages has a similar meaning.
There are hints that the seven days of creation are not over, and that we are not yet "man" with free will.
We are not entirely clear as to the meaning of the message of this "standing up" or revival from the dead of the male or male "god." We hope that the meaning will become more clear as the future unfolds. But, it certainly seems to be of a grand Cosmic magnitude. And, it may be just a few years away.

In the 28 years listed on the page from which the above table was taken, only the one 11:11 universal time is given. The end of the Mayan calendar falls on December 21, 2012. That is the famous "End Date" -
The How and Why of the Mayan End Date in 2012
A.D.
http://www.levity.com/eschaton/Why2012.html
Perhaps it is significant that 100 years after the sinking of the Titanic, the Mayan end date comes. A common factor seems to be the 11:11 AM times of the end of World War One on 11-11-1918 and the exact moment of the Mayan cycle end.
Clue to the 11:11 association with Lost Tribes.
|
"In that day the Lord will extend his hand
yet a second time to recover |
On March 11, 1992 ,a voice spoke in my dream, saying, "Cycle of time . . . [long pause] . . . to identify the Lost Tribes." I saw an image of a circular swirled pattern.
Seven years later, on July 4, 1999, a similar pattern appeared as a crop circle formation near Hackpen Hill, near Broad Hinton, Wiltshire. It was called the Crescent Vortex. The geometry of the formation was similar to a pattern developed by Wolfgang Held, showing the zones of total solar eclipses over a period of time, called, "Saros-Cycle 145."
I have found that other people have had dreams about the Lost Tribes.
On August 11, 1999, an amazing solar eclipse took place, along with a "Grand Cross" alignment of the planets. The "Diamond Ring Effect" happened at 11:11 AM over Cornwall, England. Coincidentally, there are many legendary connections to the Lost Tribes related to Cornwall and Great Britian.
The terrorist attacks on 11 September 2001 also seemed to be a symbolic event. The 11:11 was one part of it. The Lost Tribes were another part.
Part of this symbolic story relates to Joseph Smith and the Mormons, along with the city of Salt Lake, Utah. Great Britan and the USA symbolically represent the two sons of the Biblical Joseph, the eleventh son of Jacob.
When I first read the words from Revelation 3:1-4 in 1991, I was shocked, because, about a year prior, my friend, Jeff, had told me a dream where his white garments became soiled.
|
" I know your works;
you have the name |
Jeff's Dream, 1991 - I was in an oriental town, and I was wearing white pants and a white tanktop. I had tattoos on each shoulder. I walked through a restaurant, and out into the back courtyard. People were watching a fat oriental woman, who lifted up her shirt and showed her pregnant belly.
I went into the bathroom of the restaurant. The toilet was backed up, and urine was on the floor. I looked down, and saw that my white pants had gotten stained.
I went outside and saw a van with children in it. The windows were dirty, so I started to clean them.
-------
Interpretation by Joe Mason - I believe the "toilet" metaphor is a play on the "food-for-thought" symbol, which is common in dreams. Old thoughts/beliefs have been "consumed," and all the nutrients removed. It is time to discharge them. The toilet being backed up seems to say that we are having a problem releasing old beliefs and ways of being.
Jeff also had dream of being on a starship in space. A VERY important message was trying to come in, but it could not come in until the garbage was ejected first.
Derek, a young friend, had a dream of going to an upper-floor apartment to repair a garbage disposal.
Josephine had a dream of being in a large public bathroom with a white and black tiled floor. Another woman came in with a little boy. An announcement was made that the boy had a staff infection, so everyone was going to be quarantined in the bathroom.
In many other dreams, the dreamer, and/or others go into the bathroom. This often happens in complex dreams that are obviously important.
Sometime after Jeff told me the dream of staining his white pants, I became interested in the Bible for the first time. I was not raised with religion, but I had come to the point where I felt there was a lot of truth in all the myths and religions. I was startled to read Revelation 3:1-5 -
". . . I know your works; you have the name of being alive, and you are dead. Awake, and strengthen what remains and is on the point of death, for I have not found your works perfect in the sight of my God."
"Yet you have still a few names in Sardis, people who have not soiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy." He who conquers shall be clad thus in white garments, and I will not blot his name out of the book of life; I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels."
Another important part of the Bible concerning this is in Zechariah 3. Joshua has filthy garments after being accused by Satan. By the angel's command, he is helped to get clean garments. He is called a "brand plucked from the fire," which seems to indicate a purification process. The verse is quite significant to me, because Joshua and Zerubbabel in Zechariah 4, are directly related to the two olive trees that stand up after 3 1/2 days in Revelation 11:11. They are also called two lampstands and two prophets. They are the two anointed of the bloodlines, the High Priest (Joshua) and King (Zerubbabel). 3 1/2 seems to indicate the midpoint of the seven chakras, the point between the third and fourth (Heart).
In the years since that time, many clues have come that seem to verify that we are in the times of Revelation, when information is being revealed that was previously hidden.
This article reports a few of the clues that seem connected. A primary part of the focus, in addition to the Omphalos, is on the symbolic meaning of the dead rising up alive. One form of this is awaking the "sleeping giant." Some fear that this may refer to a massive explosion of the world's largest caldera in Yellowstone.
The clues here fit with Yellowstone as a possible symbol of explosive changes in human consciousness and ways of being. In this sense, it may relate to the Omphalos Stone as the central hub or navel of the world.
Clues of the sleeping giant hint that this may be the United States in a human body form with chakra centers. In this sense, Yellowstone may be the third chakra, which is located near the navel and has a base color of yellow.
My feeling is that the entire world is involved in the awakening, and that the USA connection is more of a localized representation of all humanity. Other locations, of course, are figured to have chakra centers. The Avebury Stone circle in England has been considered an Omphalos, and some say this has passed on to Glastonbury, where legend says the Holy Grail is located at the bottom of Chalice Well.
-----
The Spider Web formation of 1994 that appeared next to Avebury Stone circle also suggests a circle divided into ten parts:

ANCIENT BRITAIN & EARLY KINGS
http://www.angelfire.com/ego/et_deo/ancientbritain.wps.htm
The altar-stone which doubled as a coronation-throne in the Bronze Age Glastonbury Temple may be comparable to the "Stone of Olenos", which was in the Greek Temple of Delphi; or to the "Even Shetiyah Stone" ["Jacob’s Pillar-Stone"], which was the base stone upon which set the "ark-of-the-covenant" in the Hebrew Temple at Jerusalem; or to the "omphalos" [= "navel stone"], which was the base stone of the high-altar in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre upon which set the "Holy Grail" before the vessel’s disappearance. Legend says that the sacred-stone fell to earth from Heaven when a meteor was seen burning in the night sky. The stone is called "Lapis Exillis" or "Stone Fallen from the Sky" in medieval romance. It was in fact a meteorite that had been cut four-square and treated as a sacred object. This stone is today one of five sacred stones in the British Isles. The "Stone of Scone", also called the "Stone of Unction", the "Stone of Destiny", etc., formerly encased in the base of St. Edward’s Throne, the coronation-chair of British monarchs in Westminster Abbey, at London, England, is believed by some to be the inauguration stone of the Pictish kings when Scone became their capital city, and continued in use when the Scottish dynasty took over. It may have been placed in a chair, as formerly in St. Edward’s Throne, for we find in Pictish artwork chairs or thrones with kings seated upon them. Then, others believe that the "Stone of Scone" is to be identified with "Jacob’s Pillar-Stone", which was originally brought to Ireland by Jewish refugees following the Babylonian conquest of Judea, whom they say the Scots are their descendants.
There is a calculated design behind what appears to
be a random arrangement of stones throughout the country which are
aligned both to one another and to the movement of the planets and stars
as a gigantic astronomical hologram of the skies above the earth below.
Too, the whole of Britain is criss-crossed with a network of invisible
straight lines called "leys," or "ley-lines." Some have drawn
comparisons with a Chinese system of landscape called Feng-Shui. The
ley-lines are suppose to trace the veins and arteries of the planet as a
network of power, the natural earth currents that courses through the
leys constitutes the nervous system of the "living" planet-earth. The
leys at the same time link all sacred sites together like a complicated
spider’s web. This invisible grid-like system which covers the country
was focused on the axis of Stonehenge. There are 900 or more stone
circles [henges] throughout the British Isles, though none of them is as
elaborate as Stonehenge.
The first-quarter of the Late Bronze Age was a
period of great prosperity for Britain. The country’s prosperous economy
was supported by sea-borne commerce and trade with Europe, the
Mediterranean nations, and with Africa. This prosperity was what enabled
the British kings of this period to build many of Britain’s great
megalithic monuments, such as the Glastonbury Temple (2700BC), the royal
citadel and capital city of Avebury (2650BC), and the observatory of
Stonehenge (2500BC).
The druids carried along with them to Scotland the "Lia Fail" Stone, which now became the "Stone of Scone". It was the royal omphalos stone upon which the Iron Age Irish high-kings were crowned, and before them the Bronze Age British kings.
--------------------------
THE GALAXY ON EARTH: A TRAVELER'S GUIDE
TO THE PLANET'S VISIONARY GEOGRAPHY
The Dome of the Rock is a Muslim monument on the Temple Mount, which is a huge enclosed platform on the top of a small rise in the Old City of Jerusalem called Mount Moriah. The Temple Mount was called in Hebrew Har BaBayit, which means "the Mountain of the House," as in God's House; in Arabic Haram es-Sharif (the Noble Sanctuary); and it is a trapezoid measuring 1.5 million square feet or 500,000 square yards and occupying forty-five acres.
As impressive as it is in its own right, the Temple Mount (elevation: 2,220 feet) is the setting for an even more impressive jewel. The center of attention and the focus of the majority of the site's sacrality is an oblong rock, a natural outcropping, that measures fifty-six by forty-two feet. It's called the Foundation Stone, or in Hebrew, Even HaShetiyah, said to have been planted here at the beginning of Creation and taken by God from His Throne of Glory.
Thus Jerusalem's holiest spot is a rock that the
ancient Jews saw as the center of the Earth, the axis of the universe,
the pivot that joined Heaven and Earth, and Earth with the primeval
chaos beneath it. "It was the root of heaven, the lid of hell, the place
through which souls spring up when ascending from hell to heaven.
The site of the Temple of Jerusalem, with the Stone as its center, was believed to be the precise place out of which the Flood waters erupted and back into which they receded when the Flood was over. Then the great rock was set upon the opening into the abyss, keeping the Flood waters penned in. The Stone of Foundation was an omphalos, or primordial navel, and also the first solid object created by God and "placed by God amidst the as yet boundless fluid of the primeval waters."
Legend says God then built up the Earth concentrically around this Stone just as the body of an embryo is grown from its navel. "In the same manner in which the body of the embryo receives its nourishment through the navel, so the whole Earth too receives the waters that nourish it from this Navel."
Ever since the seventh century, the Muslim Dome of
the Rock (Arabic: Kubbat as-Sakrah) has stood directly over this unusual
rock, framing it in an octagonal temple topped with a golden dome (sixty
feet wide), its inner surface a sublime kaleidoscope of arabesques in
gilt and plaster, arching one hundred feet above the rock.
INIMICAL ENERGIES AT THE TEMPLE MOUNT- We should not be surprised to find a fair concentration of what we could label dark and negative energies marshaled at the Temple Mount to block or distort access.
Two giant astral beings are locked in mortal battle atop the Mount, swords clashing, wounds gaping; they are primitive beings of a male valence, and all they do is fight, striving to kill each other. This energy permeates Jerusalem. Numerous alien ships high above the city quarantine the Mount in a ring of beams broadcast like laser shafts.
These energies help maintain the energies and functions of several circles of reptilian beings and giant astral snakes that surround the Mount, facing outwards into Jerusalem, discouraging access, keeping the energies combative, fragmented, bent on isolation and conflict. Behind them and also facing away from the Mount is another circle of large demonic control beings; their function too is to dissuade the fainthearted, to inflame those on the edge, to confuse or scare the rest, to keep the Mount and Stone from being used again as intended.
The dome directly over the Mount and encompassing all of Jerusalem is damaged. Part of its crown is severed, like a yarmulke riding the side of the head by the ears instead of the occiput. The two cords linking the dome to the master dome at Avebury are damaged; one of them is not "hooked up" at all. The damages mean that Jerusalem through its dome is not receiving the beneficial cosmic energies of both Sirius and Canopus through Avebury as they are meant to; this allows other inimical energies to exert the predominant influence.
The dome can be repaired, but it requires human
assistance in conjunction with the angelic realm, and such repair could
only be undertaken if the spiritual worlds judged it appropriate or
karmically possible. (For information about another damaged dome, see
Clingman's Dome, Tennessee.)

-----------------------
Incorporated within the clues are various number systems and associated geometry. The numbers are as ancient as human history. Dreams, crop circles, coincidences, and symbolic events provide some of the clues.
In an almost entirely separate cultural setting, academic science, parallel events are taking place. As yet, this remains mostly unrecognized and unacknowledged. That, I believe, is one perception that will be changing.
The Christian version of the Omphalos is told in the Book of John, chapter 21, in the Bible. Peter the fisherman apostle represents the stone, as the name Peter or Petra means rock or stone.
In ancient times the word petra had another meaning, "interpretations" which were inscribed on stone tables. I believe the double meaning is a major clue indicating that the stone of change may be new interpretations at the time the veil is lifted and the secret things are uncovered. When new interpretations come, beliefs change; then it follows that perceptions change. Remember that a symbol of our perception can be the dome of the world Omphalos.

4-6-03 - I was working on the web page for Struggling With 11:11 and I was getting tired - it was now about 4:30 a.m., having woken at 3 a.m. from the first dream. I decided to go back to bed and get more sleep. Before I fell asleep, I had a vision - "The 4th lock represents Chaos 1996" DREAM - The same woman from the previous dream was again at my door. This time she brought three crones with her - (I was calling her a witch in my mind). The woman were actually pictured as the three women from the "Golden Girls" Rue McClanahan (Blanche Devereaux), Betty White (Rose Nylund), Beatrice Arthur (Dorothy Zbornak). The three women stood on the porch throughout this scene and didn't' try to come into the house. I could see them out the window that overlooked the porch. They were all wearing glitzy, glimmery gowns and capes, or gold, red and some other color I can't remember. Please note the three crones at the bottom of the Yggdrasil tree pictured above. SEE: TRIPLE GODDESSES I saw them at the door and I told her I wasn't going to let her in. She told me I couldn't stop her, but I had already opened the door to speak to her, Barbara Garrick (Allison Perkins) from 'One Life to Live" TV show was the crazy woman at the door. (Interestingly, she also played in "Far From Heaven" in 2002) I slammed the door, but she had her arm caught in the door. Even so, she managed to follow her arm through the crack in the door, like a snake, but now she was facing the door and was headless - her neck just a blackened stump. Now that she was facing the door, I opened it up quickly and booted her out onto the porch with my foot. But now, on the other side of the door, on the porch, was standing Phil Carey (Asa Buchanan- the patriarch from One Life to Live TV show) He is likened onto a god-like figure. He was huge and he brought with him a glimmery glitzy golden cape and a humungous dog. The gold cape was so glimmery, it almost seemed like the fabric was alive. He handed me the golden cape. I didn't know if I should accept it or not. But I couldn't let the dog in and I struggled to close and lock four side by side doors between me and it. (There were like golden knobs on the sides of the doors that slid into an opening in the adjoining door) These four doors were side by side like 11: 11 in wood. I closed and locked them together starting from the left and got the last lock in place just in time to prevent the dog from getting in. Then, on the back side of the door (on my side) it began to look like a computer screen and the web page shown was titled "Life Beyond" and a male voice told me to call this dream, "Life Beyond" and a beautiful choir began to sing melodious music as a series of links to other web pages were shown below the music, which I could see on the screen. . |

The dog in the dream might represent the Fenris wolf. RAGNAROK A Viking carving was found on the Isle of Man. It depicts the god, Odin, being devoured by the Fenris Wolf on the Day of Ragnarok, the Doomsday of the Gods at the end of time. Viking eddas were found in Iceland that told the story of the Day of Ragnarok, the Doomsday of the Gods. At that time, 800 Divine Warriors will come out of each of the 540 Doors of Valhalla (800 x 540 = 432,000). This wolf was born in the realm of the gods. He was friendly, but as he grew to a very large size, the Gods began to fear him. So they took him to an island and chained him there. Over the eons the wolf grew larger and angrier and angrier. On the day of Ragnarok, the doomsday of the Gods, the Fenris breaks his chains. There follows a battle of mutual annihilation. Odin is said to be the God that inspires war. He is often depicted as being accompanied by ravens SEE: TURTLE ISLAND The headless woman is probably this goddess: KALI
Kali, the harlot of Revelation 17, that is, the energy of our time cycle. That energy is indicated by the "rowdy, drunken party." The kings of the earth become drunk on the wine of the harlot, which evokes the emotion of fury or wrath. Kali is said to evoke the emotion "tamasisk," which means fury. At the end of the three-stage cycle, Kali, the harlot, is deposed. The "old man" could perhaps be the Father God, but, more likely, the Demiurge god. Dreams and coincidences indicate that the Demiurge god is symbolised by the Swastika, and represents the consciousness gestalt of mankind. The Demiurge god is a deity subordinate to the Supreme Deity, as creator of the physical world. He is often symbolised by craftsmen. He can do "good or evil." My experiences indicated that the counterclockwise Swastika symbolizes negative, yet learning, experiences, and that the clockwise Swastika symbolizes positive experiences. The Swastika can be formed by the "L" - like shape, meaning "builder," or by curved horns. The Swastika is also a symbol of Kali, and her consort, Shiva. Helena P Blavatsky states: "In this age, Vishnu had to incarnate himself in Christna, in order to save humanity from the goddess Kali, consort of Siva, the all-annihilating - the goddess of death, destruction, and human misery. Kali is the best emblem to represent the 'fall of man'; the falling of spirit into the degradation of matter, with all its terrific results. We have to rid ourselves of Kali before we can ever reach 'Moksha,' or Nirvana, the abode of blessed Peace and Spirit." |

THE DARK MOTHER Deep within the world’s mythologies, one image - a primary ‘character’ – exists, that ‘echoes’ the new theories about the Universe. The concept of the Dark Mother embodies the deepest of mysteries, ‘via negativa’ and ‘via transformativa’, and equally importantly, There are four ‘vias’ (creativa, postiva, negativa and transformativa) to flow from one into the other, in an endless cycle of creation. The concept of the Dark Mother, in Her true form, is not known to the common person, because millennia of patriarchy have demonized or distorted Her image. The ‘God’ of patriarchy is predominately one of ‘light’, and echoes our own struggles to ‘en-light-en’ our world (know-ledge) and in so doing, gain control over our environment. In order for ‘light’ to win over the all-embracing and pervading Darkness (the essential ‘mystery’ of the world), the concept of the Dark Mother had to be dis-empowered. She was demonized by the patriarchal hierarchy – becoming the shadowed scapegoat for the dominance of the male to rule over the light. The most effective form of this process, was to demonize all the male gods who were loyal to the Dark Mother (which when mixed, became the imagery portrayed of the Devil). The patriarchy’s insisted that only ‘male gods’ had any real power and the dis-empowerment of the Goddess Herself followed. She was dis-empowered directly – progressively reduced to a mere ‘vessel’ of the God’s sperm, or seminal power. She was demoted from being the mysterious power within matter, to matter itself – considered the lifeless ‘stuff’ that true power that the ‘male’ acts upon. The mystery of the Dark Mother could not be entirely removed however, by the patriarchy. She was given disguises such as in the Judeo-Christian tradition, as the Black Madonna, which was a veiled Sophia, or Holy Grail, that effectively hid Her true power, while admitting that Darkness and Mystery still had a place in ‘God’s creation’. The Dark Sterile Mother on the Tree of Life is Binah (the 3rd sphere and the first femine Sephirah) SEE: THE TREE OF LIFE Also known as The World Tree, the primal Mother Tree was regarded as all-nourishing, all-giving, involved in the creation of the universe and the origin of the first man and woman. In India tales come to light identifying the five faces given to the eternal feminine as man sought to unlock the mysteries of life: the female half of existence is at first identified with Nature, gradually deified and eventually objectified. She comes to be seen as the primal mother, fountainhead of life and nurturance. The all-giving mother then transforms into the dancing nymph, a seductress offering worldly pleasures that bind man in the cycle of life. As this nymph is domesticated, the dominant image of woman becomes the chaste wife with miraculous powers. Finally the submissive consort redefines herself as the wild and terrifying goddess who does battle, drinks blood, and demands appeasement. Exploring mysteries of gender and biology, and shedding light on the roots of taboos and traditions practiced in India today, the author shows how the image of the Mother Goddess can be both worshipped and feared when she carries the face of mortal woman. The Primal Mother is usually identified amongst the earliest of the cosmological Godde - as the primal chaos itself, and/or its first distinctive feature, ‘birthing-ness’: in myths, which came in later times, when the shift in focus begins to perceive ‘power’ as not in matter but acting upon it, She is the substance that is carved up to create the Universe. The initiating Godde then fades gradually into the background as those of manifest order becomes more predominant, and the Primal Mother survives as the Dark Mother – the on-going source of the cycles of life/death and creativity. The spelling “Godde” is used when referring to the Creator, the Sustainer, the Redeemer, the Sanctifier, the Counselor, the Advocate, the Deity, the Supreme Being, Ultimate Reality, the Cosmic Stream. The word is pronounced “God.” According to Genesis 1:27, 'Godde' created both men and women in Godde’s image, which was 'plural'. Though virtually all mainstream religions refer to Godde as “Father” “Son,” “King,” and “Lord,” Godde is ALSO “Mother,” “Daughter,” “Queen,” and “Lady.” The greatest aspect of the Dark Mother is the power to transform things. She is the ‘ground of being’ that allows life to pass through the stages of the Maiden, Mother, and Crone ‘faces’ – in a sense, She is the 4th face of the Goddess, but the one that underlies all the others. She is known as the Midwife – She who is the ‘unseen’ hands, guiding all births and deaths, and therefore, all transformations from one to the other in the cycles of life. She is, therefore, also all ‘doorways’ (between Upperworld/Underworld, Bright/Dark knowing, etc.) and is often represented by womb-like objects, such as cauldrons, oceans/wells/springs, and variants of the Holy Grail: as the underlying source to all of life’s tapestries, She is also symbolized by webs, weaving, and particularly the impetus of the tying-Maiden and cutting/Crone aspects of all life’s threads. Partially excerpted from: http://www.greenspirit.org.uk/resources/DarkMother.htm Some of the Dark Mothers mentioned in mythology are Hecate (goddess with 3 forms), (of the Underworld, (Hell), the Goddess of the Dark of the Moon), Diana (Roman)(The Huntress), Cynthia (alternate name based on the birthplace on Mt. Delos), Artemis (Greek)(on earth), Selene (in the sky), Kali (of India), The Harlot of the book of Revelation, Mary Magdalene, The Black Madonna. . The Dark Mother is the most misunderstood of the triple aspects of the Goddess. Her color is Black and she absorbs everything, including light and life. The dark of the Moon is Her time, the Abyss and darkness of space Her home. Her number is nine, symbolizing wisdom and sacred magick. Nine is also the number of completion and the completion of beginnings is the Crone's place in the cycle of birth-life-death.

1996 CHAOS There are 7 major planetary cycles and/or conjunctions that will energize the 11th sign of the zodiac--Aquarius--from now until 2087. Uranus in Aquarius -- 1996-2003 and 2079-2087. Neptune in Aquarius -- 1998-2012. Chiron in Aquarius -- 2006-2011 and 2056-2061. Jupiter conjunct Neptune -- 2009. Jupiter conjunct Saturn -- 2020 and 2080. Pluto in Aquarius -- 2024-2044. Jupiter conjunct Pluto -- 2033. An age lasting 2,160 years doesn’t start on one day, in one year or even one decade! The Tibetan Master D.K.--discussing this concept through his channel Alice A. Bailey in Esoteric Astrology suggested that the "shift time" between ages might be estimated at 500 years accounting for the moving in and out of vast, cosmic vibrations and energies. SEE: THE AGES The world situation is dire. Nuclear bombs can destroy our civilization in a flash. The so-called Middle East Crisis -- which could lead to an Armageddon in the ancient "Holy Land" -- has been going on since the turbulent founding of Israel in May 1948. Even Uranus -- the revolutionary, ruling planet of Aquarius -- is creating havoc in America as it crisscrosses our natal Moon-Pallas conjunction throughout 2002. This same Uranus in late Aquarius by transit is short-circuiting potential peace overtures between the Israelis and the Palestinians while it directly opposes Israel's natal Mars (traditional planet of war) at 28+ Leo. This is going on at white-hot levels during 2002 and will still be happening in the Fall of 2003. The global financial picture is completely out of whack and also completely unfair to billions of human beings. We may also be destroying the Earth with fossil fuels and creating a runaway "Greenhouse effect" that will be felt intensely in the decades to come. Then we had the 9/11 tragedy followed by the War in Afghanistan, the War against Terrorism, followed by the War in Iraq, which will be followed by attacks on other countries who harbor terrorists. We may even need to have a war in North Korea, the way things are going. We are definitely on the verge of WWIII and Armegeddon. |

THE NEXT CYCLE OF TIME AQUARIUS
THE COMING OF THE NEW AGE AQUARIUS
When the Moon is in the Seventh House, and
Jupiter aligns with Mars ****************** Harmony and understanding INTRODUCTION The Mythology and Associations: The ruler of Aquarius is Uranus. Its symbol represents water, a universal image which dates back into prehistory. This will also be recognized in the egyptian hieroglyph representing the same. The association in Aquarius is that of the servant of humanity pouring out the water of knowledge to quench the thirst of the world. These symbolic waves of water, share the dual expression of vibrational waves of electricity or parallel lines of force. Personalities: Aquarians are interesting and attractive people. They can be shy, sensitive, gentle and patient; or enthusiastic and lively with a tendency to be exhibitionists. Both types are strong willed and forceful in their own way. Very opinionated with strong convictions, they fight for what they believe in. They will argue vehemently for what they believe to be true, however, if you can show them facts to the contrary, they have little trouble altering their opinion. These are farsighted people with an eye and ear to the new and innovative. They are generally without prejudice and quite tolerant of the point of view of others. They have an interesting side to their nature that allows them to see a valid argument even when they disagree with it. They are quite objective folk and never get waylaid by being too close to an issue or person. Regardless of type, Aquarius is truly a humane, human being. Known to be frank and outspoken, a 'on my mind, on my mouth' type, Aquarius makes for a serious and genial companion. Refined and idealistic, romantic but practical, they are personable and likable people. Quick in mind and quick to respond, Aquarians love activity and are quite reasonable, though difficult to get close to. They cherish and guard their independence, and are a strange mixture of caring concern and cool detachment. They will go out of their way to help when needed, but never get involved emotionally. Mythic Origins — To fully appreciate the mythological significance of Aquarius, it is necessary to bear in mind the importance of water to our ancestors. The very existence of the ancients depended upon the supply of life sustaining moisture. During the month of Aquarius, the rains were on the land, literally poured from the heavens. In many regions of the ancient world, this was seen as the beginning the new year, a time of new life cycles. It is not hard to understand why some images depict the figure of Aquarius as a water bearing angel. The region of the night sky in which Aquarius resides is populated by water signs. In Babylonia, this region of the zodiac was known as the Sea. Here we also find, Capricornus, the water goat and Pisces, the fish. To the Greeks, Aquarius was associated with Ganymede, the son of Tros, king of Phrygia. The god Zeus, so admired the boy's beauty that he abducted him to serve as cup bearer on Mount Olympus. It was this desire to possess the young prince which inspired Zeus to cast his image eternally in the night sky. The Egyptians associated this time of year with the god Hapi. A heavyset, abundant figure, Hapi was responsible for the annual flooding of the river Nile. In some images he is seen watering the earth from two large jugs. The Dreams: People have been having many water type dreams. Usually they are very scary. Many people are afraid that these dreams are prophetic and that the ocean is going to come over the land and kill everyone. However, other dreams like this portray similar ocean dreams but the dreamer just stands there and watches in awe and feels no fear. Other dreams are about fish tanks which are broken and fish are flopping on the floor helplessly, and others where the tank breaks and water falls to the floor, but the fish swim in the air just like they were still in the water. We have come to think of these dreams, as being prophetic, Yes! However, not that the physical world will be destroyed but that we are undergoing a spiritual change, and these dreams are messages that the Age of Pisces (a water sign) is ending, and that the Age of Aquarius (the water bearer sign) is coming in. This link is provided if you would like to read the dreams we have collected. WATER DREAMS Let me quote from the book 'Millennium Prophecies, Predictions for the Year 2000, by A.T. Mann'. Chapter 10: Dates for the Beginning of the Age of Aquarius: In the 'Book of World Horoscopes' Nicholas Campion mentions at least seventy dates for the beginning of the Age of Aquarius covering a range of 1500 years. He forewarns his readers by stating that there has been much confusion over this issue, and quotes the noted astrologer Charles Carter's statement that more rubbish has been written about this subject than any other branch of astrology, which is probably, in itself, an exaggeration. As an illustration, Campion mentions an interesting synchronicity that occurred in 1962 involving a nineteenth-century French hoaxer and the renowned American clairvoyant Jeanne Dixon. In the 1890's Gabriel Jogand, primarily to agitate superstitious Catholics, deliberately devised and publicized a myth that the Antichrist was going to be born in 1962. On the projected day seventy years later, Jeanne Dixon had a vision that somewhere in the Middle East a baby had been born who would become a world teacher and lead humanity away from Christianity...an accurate definition of the Antichrist and also as a symbol of the beginning of the Age of Aquarius. Campion constructed the horoscope computed from Dixon's estimated time and transposed it to Jerusalem and discovered that there had been a Solar Eclipse on the previous day when all of the traditional seven planets were in the sign of Aquarius. This is an interesting possibility for the entrance of the Age of Aquarius, but was not accompanied by an significant world events which would justify such a selection. This is also true of the majority of dates previously set for this momentous entrance...although enticing, they have not been persuasively connected with any major world events which would justify their claims. However, it could be reasons that the entrance into the Age of Aquarius is an inner, rather han an outer transformation, which could be the case. Many of the following proposed dates for the transition into the New Age of Aquarius are symbolic rather than astronomical or astrological, based as they are on intuitive datum points or perceived transitions. Among the more obvious suggestions for the beginning of the Age of Aquarius are the following: 1898: According to Hindu chronology, the Kali Yuga (Age of Iron) began in the year 3102 BC. As the yuga has a duration of 5000 years, its end occurred in 1898. 1904: Aleister Crowley in the Book of the Law, dictated to him by a discarnate Egyptian entity, proposed April 1904 in Cairo.when the channeling occurred, as the beginning of the New Aeon ruled by Horus, the solar god of ancient Egypt. 1905: Gerald Massey used the standard precessional period of 2160 years for each zodiac sign of 30 degrees and assumed a starting point of 255 BC, which meant that the beginning of the Age of Aquarius was in 1905. He used the correct precessional period, but his starting point seems only to be justified because it is significant to Massey, rather than for humanity as a whole. (Signs of the Zodiac) 1911: Madame Blavatsky predicted that the reality of a Universal Church would become possible towards the close this century. The Theosophical Society based their calculation for the dawning of the Age of Aquarius on the channeling of the Lord Maitreya by Krishnamurti in 1911. (Madame Blavatsky biography)(Books by Helene Blavatsky) 1921: The Jockey Club of Barcelona received tremendous backing for a prediction that the world would end at this time. 1936:
Edgar Cayce stated that during
1936 the terrestrial axis had begun to shift, an exorable
process which would activate the transition between world ages.
The change would accelerate rapidly, with catastrophic
consequences. A well-known American geologist confirmed that
this axis shift did indeed begin below the Earth's surface in
1936. 1945: Alice Bailey determined that the transition to the Age of Aquarius occurred in the 1930s as described in The Externalisation of the Hierarchy. In 1945 the Master Djwhal Khul gave out The Great Invocation which invoked the powers of Light, Love and Divine Purpose irrespective of all religions, and in 1946 Alice Bailey wrote:...the day is dawning when al religions will be regarded as emanating from one great spiritual source. (Alice Bailey books) 1962: Peruvian spiritual messenger Willaru Huayta of the Quechua Nation, a part of the ancient Inca confederation believes that the Age of Aquarius began in February, 1962. 1975: Rudhyar designated 1975 as the time when the Avatar of the New Age would appear. He allowed the possibility that it might not be the Second Coming of Christ anticipated by many, but that the Christ energy could be carried by a series of individuals who would be agents for this message. 1975: A. Woldben in After Nostradamus suggested a range of dates including 1975, 2000, 2023, and 2160. He stated that the transition of world ages is never exact and can take hundreds of years because they constitute a modification in collective consciousness. 1987: In August Jose Arguelles organized The Harmonic Convergence which was a foretaste of the imminent New Age. 1997: Carl Jung was inspired by the work of Nostradamus and supported his contention that the New Age would happen between 1997 and 2000. 2000: There are many prophecies which agree that the Millennium year is 2000, among them those of Nostradamus, Edgar Cayce, St. Malachy, Garabandal, Fatima and other Christian prophets. Margaret Hone in The Modern Textbook of Astrology gives the year 2000 as a symbolic date for the new Age. The seer Catharine Emmerich believed that Lucifer would be unchained in 50 or 60 years before the year 2000. The theory of The Divine Plot, by this author, is an astrological model of the historical process expressing multiple cyclic world ages, and it projects a transition to a new world age in the year 2000. 2001: G. Barbarin stated that according to the principle of the Great Week and the six days of a thousand years of the adamic Era, there will follow a day of rest, the Millennium, which from the year 2001 will bring a thousand years of peace. While his prophecy echoes the Seventh Day Adventists, it is also similar to the Hebrew Jubilee Year and Nostradamus Seventh Millennium.

I believe this astrological alignment is very significant and would very much appreciate your sharing as widely as you feel appropriate. Please note that the chart itself is an attachment. with much love, Jude
Dear friend,
In mid February a rare astrological concentration brings together a number of planets together with the North Node - denoting higher purpose - in Aquarius that energizes and inspires the possibility for transcendental breakthrough in some perhaps seemingly intransigent situations.
We measure our global sense of both space (latitude and longitude) and time (universal time - UT or GMT) from the prime meridian located at Greenwich, England. So we can perceive the collective influence of this momentous astrological event by looking at the alignment from this globally ‘centered’ perspective.
When we do something extraordinary and exquisite emerges.
At dawn on 14th February the day dedicated to St Valentine, the patron saint of Love, the Moon in Libra enters the seventh house of relationships. And Jupiter and Mars are aligned in Aquarius in the twelfth house of spiritual transformation.
Forty years ago, the intuitive words of a song called Aquarius, brought the dawning of the new age into our collective awareness: When the Moon is in the seventh house and Jupiter aligns with Mars. Then love will rule the planets and peace will steer the stars
At dawn on 14th February the Cosmos actually embodies this perfect alignment to support our collective manifestation of love and peace and dawning of the Age of Aquarius.
The Aquarian chart of 14th February reveals an incredible concentration of cosmic influences blending with the energies of Aquarius in the twelfth house. Expansive Jupiter and energetic Mars are aligned with the higher purpose of the North Node. The presence of Chiron the wounded healer offers us the opportunity to heal the schisms that have separated us for so long. Neptune emphasizes collective humanitarian movements and the co-creation of social justice. And the presence of the radiant Sun enlightens the entire alignment.
Mercury also in the twelfth house but just beyond the cusp in Capricorn, allies with transformational Pluto to communicate and anchor the Shift throughout our global structures and institutions.
The Moon in Libra in the seventh house emphasizes harmonious real –ationships.
Venus in Aries in the first house energizes and empowers dynamic co-creativity.
And whilst Saturn the great task master in opposition to Uranus the unexpected awakener is suggesting an ongoing confrontation as the dregs of the unsustainable old paradigm reluctantly give way to the untested hope of the new, their placements in Virgo and Pisces brings practical altruism and visionary inspiration to the transition. At 7.25am on 14th February (2009) – and for the 18 minutes of the alignment, I invite you, in the universal heart, to add your own intention for love and peace and to co-create the dawning of the Age of Aquarius to that of the Cosmos. In whatever way feels appropriate for you, you may choose to align with7.25am (UT) or 7.25am local time energizing a wave of intention that will surge around the Earth.
Please feel free to circulate the Aquarian chart and its cosmic invitation to birth the Age of Aquarius.
With love, joy and gratitude in the universal heart,
Jude

2012: Terence and Dennis McKenna in The Invisible Landscape advance an idea derived from studies of primitive shamanism and psychoactive drugs that our universe is created by the holographic interaction between two hyper-universes, and the Universe if cyclic and recurrent.Based on extensive computer modelling, they think that humanity will experience a Resurrection into the Light during six days in Ad 2012 when, in the last 135 minutes, eighteen barriers, comparable to the appearance of life, the invention of language or the achievement of immortality will be experienced, thirteen of them in the last millisecond. 2012: Jose Arguelles discovered a system of cycles based on the ancient Mayan calendar and determined that the year 2012 would be the end of the 396 year Baktun of the Transformation of Matter, the collapse of global civilization with a following era of information and crystal-solar technology and galactic synchronization. 2020: Adrian Duncan proposed the Aquarian Mutation chart, a horoscope for the aquarian transition, being the time when Jupiter and Saturn are conjunct in Aquarius for the first time since AD 1404 (21 December 2020, 18:18 GMT, as published in Doing Time on Planet Earth) 2025: The Tibetan Djwhal Khul, speaking through Alice Bailey, stated that the Fourth Ray comes into manifestation in 2025, bringing qualities for preparing the discrimination and balance required for the intellectual and emotional refinement of humanity. Humanity will the be able to function more completely on the intuitional plane. 2059: Rudhyar in The Lunation Cycle.There is a disagreement over this and the following date in Rudhyar's work. 2060: Dane Rudhyar determined that the last precessional Age of Pisces began in 100BC and since a world age is 2160 years, the official Age of Aquarius begins in this year. He considered that the last 10 percent of each age is its Seed Period during which its influence will begin to be felt and experienced. He mentions that in 1844 a young Persian prophet announced the end of the Islamic era and the beginning of the New Age, the avatar of which would announce himself some nineteen years later. One of his original followers proclaimed himself Baba u llah (Glory of God) the Expected One, And , in 1846 the planet Neptune was also discovered. Rudhyar believed that the new cycle had already started to release it spiritual-archetypal energies, which are now making their way downward into manifestation, producing a radical upheaval of public institutions focusing around the time of the massing of planets in the sign Capricorn, the ruler of large-cale political organizations.This would constitute a 'rite of passage' for all humanity and, in the destruction of existing and faulty ways of perceiving and organizing the world, humanity would discover a new way of life. 2160: Gordon Strachan in Christ and the Cosmos follows the standard precessional age of 2160 years using the birth of Christ as his datum point. 2874: Based on his mathematical analysis of the Great Pyramid passages, Morton Edgar set this date as the completion of Christ's Day of Restitution when the world will have gained all it has lost throughout history. 2915: Edgar Morton stated that in this year, forty years after the preceding date, the Redeemed Race will experience to the full the glorious liberty of the children of God, with complete dominion over the Earth. The dates and attributions stretch all the way ahead to Robert Hand's use of precessional movement combined with the actual size of the constellation Pisces in the sky, to arrive at the date of AD 2813, and beyond to the year 3550. It is clear from the preceding that the date of the entrance into the Age of Aquarius is anything but definite and it would seem that almost everyone has his or her version of the exact point. It is certain that the transition is in the process of taking place and it will have a great impact upon all humanity.
Introduction On February 2, 2009, I received a newsletter from the Prophets Conference telling of the rare astrological alignment on Valentine's Day, this year. The celestial bodies will be in positions that match the song, "Aquarius." An article by Jude Currivan, Ph.D., spoke to the birth of the Divine Child within us. I was amazed at how well all the various ideas fit with my own studies, which include dreams, crop circles, myths, and religions. The planetary connections to the Tree of Life are especially meaningful. I wrote an e-mail to Dr. Currivan, and she responded. I then sent two more e-mails. We plan to have a telephone conversation shortly after Valentine's Day. I will report the results in this article. The actual starting point of the Age of Aquarius is controversial, of course. Some interpretations range from 1898 to 2813. In any case, this Valentine's Day certainly seems to be a sign of the times.
