Dear Friends, Patriots and Warriors of Truth:
In the message posted by Hobie (Metals, Mayans, etc.), he mentioned the "Long Cycle" of the Mayans, a 26,000 year period of time otherwise known as the Sidereal Year. During a Long Cyle or a Sidereal Year, this planet goes through what is known in both astronomy and astrology as "the Precession of the Equinox." It is an observation that postulates that each "Age" is a segment of time that lasts some 2100 or so years.
Here is a quote from a website which summarizes the Precession:
"The Earth's rotation axis is not fixed in space. Like a rotating toy top, the direction of the rotation axis executes a slow precession with [a] period of 26,000 years for the entire ecliptic of our planetary bodies to travel around our sun, a trip of 360 degrees. Each one of the 12 signs of the zodiac takes about 2100 years for our solar system to pass through.
"Every 72 years we actually move backward 1 degree. After 2100 years we move out of one age and into another.
"The precession is like a star clock that helps us date the rotations of earth in our solar system through our galaxy.
"At the time of the birth of Christ we were moving out of the Age of Aries which was the Roman Empire into the Age of Pisces. That happened around 60 BC. The early Christians were aware of this and used as their symbol the 2 fishes going in opposite directions."
And, additionally:
"Precession was the third-discovered motion of the Earth, after the far more obvious daily rotation and annual revolution. Precession is caused by the gravitational influence of the Sun and the Moon acting on the Earth's equatorial bulge. To a much lesser extent, the planets exert influence as well."
Now for the 'grabber,' from this very interesting site on the worldwide web ( http://www.crystalinks.com/precession.html ) --
Each degree of transit lasts about 72 years, "Which places us about two thirds through this transition. We will be fully into Aquarius, one degree, around the year 2013. Interestingly enough, the Mayan Calendar and many of the ancient dating systems on the planet actually end the cycle of this age in the year 2012.
"Signs of Aquarius: Paradigm shifts in the medical profession, from alapathic medicine to more holistic medicine. We see more equality between men and women emerging. Women are coming into their own and to be treated as equals in jobs, ownership of property, voting rights, etc.
"The Age of Aquarius is also about technology and information spreading. It's about space travel and computers. It's about things moving quickly and rapidly. Time has been speeding up because we are moving into a section of the sky that is creating a vibrational awakening on the planet.
"We are awakening our spiritual potential and our innate gifts as spiritual beings. This includes the awakening of clairvoyance, clairaudience, telepathy, and healing abilities. These innate gifts have been dormant in us for the last 2,000 year. Now we are going to realize our full spiritual potential.
The author of this site explicitly rejects the idea that the planet's location with regard to the apparent signs of the zodiac has anything to do with physical or metaphysical reality.
She does, however, discuss her life and her transformation from a "Jewish housewife" to being a psychic researcher, Reiki therapist and lecturer. She claims to have employed "remote viewing" in her psychic journeying and says that "Zoroaster" has been her psychic contact since a very young age (see her bio).
The Precession of the Equinox, which actually lasts 25,800 years according to the information on this site, also affects the length of the tropical "day," and has been used to calculate the drift of the polar region, which is moving, however slowly.
Thus, the end date of 2012 coincides with the conclusion of the current cycle of metals transformation, which could be said to have begun in or about August of 1990, when Saddam Hussein sent his tanks and troops into the Emirate of Kuwait (a wholly owned subsidiary of the British royal octopus), thus forcing the United States to 'show its hand,' with regard to all of the technologies developed since 1968.
Despite the fact that Buckminster Fuller always wrote and spoke about things in the world of science and social life which could and were verifiable and explicit, the 22 and 1/2 year metals cycle is an approximation of human tool and resource usage. The slippage of this cycle over time is inevitable, as we humans sometimes speed up and sometimes slow down -- both in our physical progress and in our metaphysical growth 'spurts.'
The question then reoccurs: why are the scions of the New World Order so obsessed with this year, the Year 2000? Looked at from the lengths of time which the great psychic and seer Edgar Cayce once said were common to the civilization of Atlantis, two hundred years out of a span of 26,000 is seemingly rather inconsequential. Yet if the Sidereal Year or Precession occurs over a more exact figure of 25,800 years, we find that each Age of human experience lasts exactly 2,150 years, and that there is no "slippage" or unused remainder in this length of time.
Dividing 26,000 by twelve signs of the zodiac produces a number with a remainder of .6666 etc into infinity. One of the most controversial assertions made by Buckminster Fuller was his insistence that -- in nature and the natural universe -- there are only whole systems and no irrational numbers. Thus, Fuller had no room in his scientific world view for a number like "Pi," which has been calculated to one million decimal points without scientists having discovered a pattern repeating in it!
The Internet is a new functionality in human consciousness. When a person uses the Internet on a regular basis -- and certainly for on-line chatting and communications -- it is my belief that a new area of the brain is opened for business and activated. Once this new area is completely energized, it is all but impossible to turn it off. Whether this is good or bad, I do not profess to know with certainty. But I am sure that this functionality is a part of why America On Line has grown so rapidly and is so well-liked by so many different types of folks.
With the creation of the World Wide Web and HTML, and with the ability to post pictures and graphics on computer servers, a new era in press and publication has opened up. That is why so many things which have previously been hidden, or which have been considered to be forbidden for mere mortals and citizens to know about, have been coming into recognition and moving into a more generalized area of human knowledge. Philip is right, we humans are all of one species, and every known human being with normal functions can interbreed with any other normal person, and the only true biological distinctions are blood types and certain genetic markers for diseases or maladies like Tay-Sachs, etc.; therefore, there are no "races" amongst humanity, which is yet another concept advocated extensively by Fuller in his lifetime.
That, dear friends, is why I mistrust lines of inquiry which try to show that this human race has been intermingled with some alien species and so on. Wouldn't those forced additions show up in the way of bizarre mutations, when persons who were "half human," or 1/4 alien (or whatever), intermarried with "normals?"
It is important to note that the scions of the New World Order have never allowed the scientific discoveries and humanitarian theories of Buckminster Fuller to be widely disseminated. Two years ago I did an inquiry amongst some people involved in research, mathematics, and architecture, concerning where courses on Fuller's discoveries and his Dymaxion Car, and his concepts of Tensegrity and Synergetics, could be taken.
There were almost none, only one course at Harvard and one at a small public college in New Jersey: many of the professors and research scientists with whom I spoke had no knowledge of the depth of Fuller's thinking, his a-political philosophy, although most everyone had heard of him at some time in their careers.
Fuller served as a guest lecturer at both Cornell and Yale. He was an invited lecturer at Princeton University. He obtained a specially funded position at Southern Illinois University. And he was awarded a very sizable subsidy at the University of Pennsylvania (with several other colleges contributing), near the end of his long and illustrious life. He served his country in the War For Greater Serbia (Part One), and he was appointed to a special position concerning economics and production during the War For Greater Serbia (Part Two). He wrote an important paper on economic development for the government of Brazil, during the Second War, which helped persuade them to align with the United States and to give our military forces every consideration. It was kept classified until about 1980!
Fuller advocated doing more with less, increasing industrial efficiency, and always seeking technical or technological solutions to human problems. He had almost no use for politics and 'the political solution.' Fuller's view of communism was utilitarian. He saw it as being something akin to a "malaise" which was caused by poverty and an intellectual rigidity.
Fuller was the first authoritative man of science to "demystify" the relationships between the royal families of Europe and the banking interests, and to compare the forward march of both of these forces with the developments of sailing masters, ship captains, and the immutable forces of nature which operate in the atmosphere and on the ocean. He was an avid sailor and he earned forty-four different honorary degrees in his long life.
Fuller also believed, or at least gave credibility to, the idea that the human race did not "evolve" here or get created from the muck and plankton of this planet, but rather that it was carried here by broadcast waves operating at an ultra-ultra-high frequency, i.e., by a radio-like transmission over the vast distances of space, one that probably consumed almost no time.
The great principle which lies under his thinking and his discoveries is really a simple one: in nature and the natural universe, there are only whole systems, and every species and the great families of similar creatures are all part of these whole systems; and that nature often creates redundancies, like the seeds of the oak or the thousands of eggs laid by salmon and other fish -- and that irrational numbers and concepts were, well, exactly that -- irrational. He rejected those concepts as being both useless for building the true wealth of knowledge, and deleterious for most people, in that irrational concepts lead inevitably to irrational conflicts.
The Precession of the Equinox indicates that the final transition from the Age of Pisces -- with nearly two thousand years of the dominance of the Fisher of Men, St. Peter -- is well under way, right now. In the trance-related visions of Edgar Cayce, the lost civilization of Atlantis broke up about one Sidereal Year in the past, or nearly 26,000 years ago. He maintained that the hidden records of Atlantis and of the survivors who settled in what was called Upper Egypt have long been known to occult masters, and that they are buried in a special chamber that lies under what was once 'the Great Lion' but is now called "the Sphinx." Ellie Crystal notes in her web site that the Great Flood or Deluge probably happened in the Age of Leo, or exactly half-way around the Precession from where we are right now!
Many reputable scholars have questioned the origins of the Sphinx and the Great Pyramid, too many to ever be quoted here: but if the monumental architecture there was undertaken with the remnants of an Atlantean technology which employed some form or another of directed energy, and lighter-than-air hovercraft or dirigibles or zeppelins, then those people who think that the Pyramid was built by slaves are dangerously wrong. It would make very good sense for the ancients to mark their hidden library with symbols that only "the elite" could decipher, and especially if they had the foresight to see humanity declining into a long period of barbarism. If the Sphinx was built during or at the end of the Age of Leo, then it must have been, originally, a giant cat or lion! That certainly makes sense.
Walking backwards in time from 2012 A.D., we see that a 2,150 year cycle of the Precession takes us to 138 B.C., or when the Roman Republic was reaching its greatest growth (but not its greatest powers). This period, roughly speaking, includes the Third Punic War and the complete destruction of Carthage by Scipio the Younger, the revolt of the Maccabees in Palestine, and the subjugation of all of Greece by Rome.
Also, there was the division of Rome into seven major provinces and the rise of reformers led by Tiberius Gracchus -- who was murdered at the behest of a corrupt Senate in 133 B.C. So, too, his brother Gaius Gracchus was elected Tribune and planned many reforms, only to be killed in a riot in 121 B.C. His reforms died too, or were abolished.
Soon thereafter the Teutons and the barbarian Cimbri begin to press heavily on Rome from the north, apparently moved by harsh weather from their northern forest havens and fishing villages. Then comes the era of Cicero and Catalinus, Sulla and Pompey, and the breakdown of Roman republican order by invasion and civil war. That comprises the seventy-two year period through approximately 66 B.C., including the rebellion at Athens in 88 B.C., and with Palestine falling under Roman control -- and the revolt of the gladiators and Roman slaves as led by Spartacus (about 71 B.C.). These things are important to us, today, as they are the basic fabric, the lore and legend of our culture and our mass-produced entertainments -- witness the resurgence of interest in the Kirk Douglas move, "Spartacus," and the on-going disputes over "Democracy" versus the free Republic.
Roman power was built on economic success and communications, with the concepts of law and citizenship proving to be the invisible glue that holds together a diverse people: while the republican government of Rome was necessarily reliant on slavery, the economic success of the United States comes more from our abilities and ingenuity, and from our noble struggle to overcome and abolish slavery. Why then should we tolerate any system which proposes to push us all back into slavery, to make us Americans 'the house niggers' on the new Global Plantation?
Oh, sure, you get to wear nice clothes and to eat in the kitchen but it is still slavery and it is still perpetual! The Precession of the Equinox indicates that the era of Pisces is over, and thus all that was old is being renewed. Why then re-implement human slavery, when it has been proven a failure by more than 4300 years of recorded history? Long live the free and democratic republic -- accept no substitutes!!
