2. The Rabbit Warrens – PART ONE

Descent into the old chambers that hooked me — ritual control, time manipulation, fallen gods

PART ONE – The Ritual Element

Astrology, Numerology, Sacred Geometry 

One of the most prevalent views I quickly discovered when I was researching conspiracies could be summed up by a quote from Gary Bell, now deceased host of a conspiracy radio-show. He said that the overlords of our Earth, the ones he calls the Illuminati, are guided by three things: astrology, numerology, and sacred geometry. I was primed for this after reading the MK Ultra Black Assassins blog, where we saw tarot symbols all over the James Holmes incident. Yes, of course. They speak an occult language, and it hides in plain sight.  

Mark Passio, along similar lines, says that these secret societies have a very religious worldview that they do not deviate from, but that it’s not a religion that we are privy to. It’s what he would call Satanic. Michael Tsarion echoes this when he discusses the rituals done to appease the Old Ones, the old gods, which he said started with John Dee in the Middle Ages, when he unlocked some kind of portal via black magic that allowed these Old Ones access here to energetically feed on human blood and human sacrifice.

So let me back up a bit and flesh that out, and then I will explain why I believe that is inaccurate, and how all this could be described as a psychological inflation.

See, what these researchers have done is they’ve compiled lists of terrorist attacks, wars, bombings, horrendous acts of violence, and they’ve seen how there are patterns in the times and dates. For example, they can be clumped together in what is called the Season of Sacrifice (during springtime, April into May), and how this echoes the ancient pagan cultures that, when they started to grow decadent, would sacrifice people around the birth of springtime, where they thought that this ritual was needed in order for the sun to grow again and for the crops to flourish.

Mark Passio says that this Satanic bent kind of grew out of that culture, but then took on a life of its own and went underground. It gained power through an occult knowledge differential. For you see, as the mainstream became more and more scientifically minded, the idea that magic ritual around natural cycles and natural rhythms could be used to harness energy became less believed, or less popular, and soon it became the stuff of superstition. But these societies continued to practice that and harness that to great effect, and this created a massive spell over the whole world, a kind of hypnosis, a mind-control umbrella, when it’s done in a certain way, again following the cycles of nature and number and astrology.

And so with that view, it’s easy to compile data, to compile evidence to support it, because if you look hard enough, you will always find what seem like synchronistic events lining up with certain calendar days or eclipses and other astrological phenomena. Or, if you look through enough dates and events, you can link up number patterns, numerological significances.

Now I need to be careful here because I don’t want to say that all of those synchronicities are false or contrived, although I am saying that probably much of it is, especially when you start to do English gematria, which just causes an explosion of meaning-making. But I need to be careful because I do think that there can be a reasonable link between a massive violent event and astrological phenomena.

We know that the stars and the cycles of nature have an effect on the makeup of the human being. We can also reasonably conclude that number patterns are built into the fabric of the cosmos and these same cycles. I don’t doubt this, and I’ve seen it in my own life.

But what I’m saying is that these linkages could be explained on the individual level without having to conclude that there is an organized cabal behind each and every one of them running a massive program.

That’s the TS 2.0 shift.

Earth Quarantine?

Let’s return to the Michael Tsarion, John Dee, old ones connection because here we have an idea which naturally expands the idea of an elite illuminati using ritual dates and times as their codebook for harnessing power. Tsarion then introduces the next logical idea here which is that to the Illuminati, controlling the world is only secondary to their primary reason for their efforts, which were to ultimately escape the planet, a planet which was under a kind of quarantine lockdown. This lockdown tied into the popular UFOlogy view that the rest of the cosmic family does not want earth inhabitants to leave until they have evolved further and transcended things like wars and the impulse for nuclear armament and things like that.

And essentially, what began to unfold, not just from Tsarion, but from adjacent researchers was that there was this breakaway civilization, this underground subculture that was far more advanced both in technology, and in a occult knowledge and power, but was nevertheless stuck here, stuck on the planet; and that they were trying to leave the planet to escape their karma due to their wicked crimes of the past, and that the only way that they were attempting to do so was not through atonement, but through digging themselves further and making deals with Satanic old gods; decrepit gods like those that have been seen for example in the work of HP Lovecraft. These ‘old ones’ operate, like all higher beings, very much in sync with cosmic cycles, dates, symbols, fluctuations, etc., and so that’s the reason why these massive rituals, these sacrificial wars and shootings happened along certain times and dates. It was because that’s what the old ones needed in order to have the strongest feeding frenzy, not because the Illuminati really cared about elegant symbology or numerical significance. 

Around that time of my research, the horror movie A Cabin in the Woods came out, which pandered to just these concepts. A three-letter intelligence agency had set up a ritualized killing scenario for these innocent group of teens, a once a year ritual in order to appease the old gods. And one of the teens wa a a stoner conspiracy theorist, who ironically was the only one who began to suspect that something sinister is going on. He sounded crazy to the others, but was actually closest to the “truth.”

And so all this grabbed me even further because it seemed to wrap things up nicely and make much more sense. As we travel down the rabbit warrens of TS 1.0, we begin to  see that with each new conspiracy-lens 3D glasses that I was putting on, reality would seem to pop out even more, and I felt like I was awakening, because suddenly I was getting all these downloads. The symbolic connections were becoming more dense, but this density was a result not of a clarified grounded worldview, but simply a totalizing theory which in its elegant simplicity covers over everything like a rug. It smoothes out any wrinkles and makes everything fit, and so of course it felt like awakening. It felt like transcendence. It felt like I was being initiated. It felt charged with electricity, and was very exciting. I felt like I was in a suspense thriller movie. My life had become that. But something else was being hardened – my ability to tolerate irreducible complexity, my ability to tolerate opposing world views, my patience for people who were not on my “wavelength.” The further down the rabbit-hole I went, the more isolated I became.

What can be salvaged from all this? Now from the vantage point of distance and time and crystallization of thought, I see the psycho-spiritual metaphor behind the desire to escape the quarantine. It is simply the very human desire for a shortcut to initiation, a short cut to the next level of development. It asks for a cheat code to circumvent the hard work of sitting with ones shadow and metabolizing it slowly and painfully. Because that involves suffering. My shadow was so scary and suppressed via heavy cannabis use, from obsessive escape down the rabbit warrens of alternative media and symbol-swimming, that I had projected it onto the entire cosmos and made my psychological stuff about elites trying to avoid their karma and escape the planet.  As scary as the global cabal idea is, it was also comforting because it allows one to not have to look at themselves squarely. Now the TS 2.0 shift: it was never really about them. It was about the part of the human soul that wants freedom without transformation.
