      • Alchemist


        There are two primary ways of knowing reality:

        1. The rational, deductive, argumentative, intellectual thinking that is accepted by the science and our patriarchal Western culture. The alchemists called this Solar Consciousness and assigned it many code words, such as the Sun, Sulfur, the King, the Father, Spirit, and ultimately, the One Mind of the universe. This involves left-brain activity like linear thought, schematics, formulae, arguments and logic.

        2. The intuitive way of thinking, also called intelligence of the heart, a non-linear, image-driven way of thinking that is an accepted tool of the arts and religion. The alchemists called the other way of knowing Lunar Consciousness. Among its many symbols are the Moon, Mercury, the Queen, the Holy Ghost, Soul, and ultimately, the One Thing of the universe. This involves right-brain activity dealing with drawings, paintings, mandalas, symbols, music, and meditation.

        The alchemists believed that perfection could only be achieved by working with both Solar and Lunar ways of knowing and ultimately uniting them in a third state of Stellar Consciousness. Stellar Consciousness is a state of incorruptible wisdom symbolized by the heroic Child that resulted from the marriage of the King and Queen, as well as by Salt, Gold, the Philosopher's Stone, the Astral Body, and of course, the Stars themselves.

          The results of recent research suggests that ancient, or prehistoric, builders of the monumental structures found in such diverse places as Ireland, Malta, southern Turkey and Peru all have a peculiarly common characteristic -- they may have been specially designed to conduct and manipulate sound to produce certain sensory effects.

          Beginning in 2008, a recent and ongoing study of the massive 6,000-year-old stone structure complex known as the Hal Saflieni Hypogeum on the island of Malta, for example, is producing some revelatory results. Like its related prehistoric temple structures on Malta, this structure features central corridors and curved chambers. But this structure is unique in that it is subterranean, created through the removal of an estimated 2,000 tons of stone carved out with stone hammers and antler picks. Low voices within its walls create eerie, reverberating echoes, and a sound made or words spoken in certain places can be clearly heard throughout all of its three levels. Now, scientists are suggesting that certain sound vibration frequencies created when sound is emitted within its walls are actually altering human brain functions of those within earshot.

          "Regional brain activity in a number of healthy volunteers was monitored by EEG through exposure to different sound vibration frequencies," reports Malta temple expert Linda Eneix of the Old Temples Study Foundation, "The findings indicated that at 110 Hz the patterns of activity over the prefrontal cortex abruptly shifted, resulting in a relative deactivation of the language center and a temporary shifting from left to right-sided dominance related to emotional processing and creativity. This shifting did not occur at 90 Hz or 130 Hz......In addition to stimulating their more creative sides, it appears that an atmosphere of resonant sound in the frequency of 110 or 111 Hz would have been “switching on” an area of the brain that bio-behavioral scientists believe relates to mood, empathy and social behavior. Deliberately or not, the people who spent time in such an environment under conditions that may have included a low male voice -- in ritual chanting or even simple communication -- were exposing themselves to vibrations that may have actually impacted their thinking." [1]

          Researchers at the University of Malta are confirming the findings in an ongoing study.

            Study finds European starlings flocking patterns similar to metals being magnetized

            (PhysOrg.com) -- Scientists and amateur enthusiasts alike have long been fascinated by the abilities of some groups of animals to move in lockstep with one another, most specifically with schools of fish and flocks of birds. Now, new research by a team of researchers studying the flocking abilities of European starlings has shown that some of their abilities might be mathematically defined, and that the ability of the birds to change directions almost simultaneously follows the same model as metal when it becomes magnetized. The team is set to publish the results of their study in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

            Huge coronal hole is sending solar wind our way

            An enormous triangular hole in the Sun’s corona was captured earlier today by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory, seen above from the AIA 211 imaging assembly. This gap in the Sun’s atmosphere is allowing more charged solar particles to stream out into the Solar System… and toward Earth as well.

              Let us Dissect this info a bit based on the Enneagram

              but first, as we previously mentioned (see blackchisel97's post ) , the number 8 can be viewed as the representation of Man ( Mercury / Hermes)

              so

              The findings indicated that at 110 Hz HM 2the patterns of activity over the prefrontal cortex abruptly shifted,resulting in a relative deactivation of the language center and a temporary shifting from left to right-sided dominance related to emotional processing and creativity
              This shifting did not occur at 90 Hz or 130 Hz HM 9 or HM 4
              so HM 2 causes a shift in HM 8 let's compare it to the Enneagram :



              as you can see : HM 2 and HM 8 are directly linked

              HM 2 + HM 8 = HM 1

              • If you want to know more about the Enneagram (as it is a good Fractal Construct ) ; you can also just type in Enneagram in google and search the images (there is a plethora of Interpretation ; ):





                The Enneagram: Basic Characteristics Of The Nine Enneagram Types

                The ancient Enneagram is a profound and elegant approach to communication, character and culture. Based on ancient sources--versions of the Enneagram appear in Homer, HaKaballah, Chaucer, Dante, and in modern times, the Gurdjieff Work -- the Enneagram describes nine different character types or worldviews: the ways that people and groups think, act, feel, and most especially, relate to one another.

                Each of the nine primary types manifests a distinct mental style, body language and aesthetic sensibility, with attention rigidly over-focused in some areas and avoidant in others. When we use Somatics in conjunction with the Enneagram system, specific patterns of physical and emotional holding and expression actually become visible by type.

                Sophisticated yet exquisitely transparent, the system accurately predicts how one style will get along with another, the nature of the difficulties the two are likely to have, and the opportunities for partnership and co-creation. Embodying the various styles of relating can help to catalyze spontaneous expression, empathy and compassion.


                the aim is to become / use all The Nine Enneagram Types

                      reading through A thread on Above Top Secret on

                      The most accurate prophecies i have ever seen., page 1

                      Mitar Tarabich, (1829-1899) was an illiterate peasant from a small Serbian village called Kremna, he occasionally had prophetic visions of "seeing into the future. Being very religious and his godfather being a local Serbian orthodox priest, he told the priest about his visions.
                      The priest, Zaharije Zaharich (1836-1918), wrote down mitar's visions in a small book, which got damaged by fire in 1943 when his family home was destroyed by the Bulgarian army. This text is now in the possession of the family of Zaharich's great-grandson, Mr. Dejan Malenkovich.
                      "People will drill wells deep in the ground and dig out gold, which will give them light, speed and power, and the earth will shed tears of sorrow, because there will be much more gold and light on its surface than in its interior. The earth will suffer because of these open wounds. Instead of working in the fields, people will dig everywhere, in right and wrong places, but the real power will be all around them, not being able to tell them, 'Come on, take me, don't you see that I am here, all around you.'(sounds like Her / Virgin ), no? ) Only after many a summer, people will remember this real power, and then they will realize how stupid it was to dig all those holes. This power will also be present in people but it will take a long time before they discover it and use it. Thus man will live for a long, long time, not being able to know himself. There will be many learned men who will think through their books that they know and can do everything. They will be the great obstacle for this realization [self-knowledge], but once men get this knowledge, then people will see what kind of delusion it was when they listened to their learned men. When that happens, people will be so sorry that they didn't discover it before, because this knowledge is so simple.

                        Description
                        The High Priestess is a tall, young woman with a round, pale face and long, thick, moderately curly, platinum blond hair. She wears a long, midnight blue robe, decorated with six stars surrounding a central moon, and with flowers and fruit hanging from the borders. Her black mantle, drawn from behind, over her shoulders and up from behind her waist, is knotted in an X on her chest; her arms are bare. She looks like she might be pregnant, though we cannot be sure.

                        On her forehead is a silver disk with arcing serpents on each side, suggesting simultaneously crescent moons and horns; a garland of flowers is in her hair. Her right hand holds a glowing silver sistrum (sacred rattle), and her left, a golden vase, decorated on the base with pomegranates and palm leaves; its handle looks like a snake swollen with venom.

                        The High Priestess sits in a throne in a chariot, drawn by two horses (black on her left, white on her right). The background behind the chariot is hidden by its billowing canopy, in midnight blue with 27 stars, which is supported by two poles surmounted with silver crescent moons. The chariot emerges from a dark river which can be seen flowing behind her on either side of the canopy. The sides of the chariot are decorated with mugwort leaves. Cerberus, a three-headed black dog, sits beside her in the car.
                        Verse

                        The Shining Queen, who rules the velvet night,
                        And nurtures nascent change, concealed from sight,
                        Transforms and changes, wheeling light and dark,
                        And seeks the Sun to sire the unseen spark.
                        The watery depths bring forth the Child of Light

                          Burnin' hot but you don't feel the pain

                          Your desire is insane

                          You can't stop until you do it again.
                          Sometimes I wonder as I look in your eyes

                          Maybe you're thinking of some other guy;
                          But I know
                          yes
                          I know how to treat you right -
                          That's why you call me in the middle of the night.

                          You say it's urgent - so urgent

                          U-u-u-urgent - just you wait and see
                          How urgent our love can be - it's urgent!


                          You play tricks on my mind

                          You're everywhere but you're so hard to find

                          You're not warm or sentimental


                          You're so extreme
                          you can be so temperamental.
                          But I'm not looking for a love that will last

                          I know what I need and I need it fast.
                          Yeah
                          there's one thing in common that we both share

                          That's a need for each other anytime
                          anywhere.

                          It gets so urgent - so urgent

                          Just you wait and see how urgent our love can be -
                          It's urgent!

                          You say it's urgent - make it fast
                          make it urgent

                          Do it quick
                          do it urgent - gotta rush
                          make it urgent

                          Want it quick
                          make it urgent - urgent emergency

                          Urgent
                          urgent emergency

                          Urgent

                            Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (German: [ˈvɔlfɡaŋ amaˈdeus ˈmoːtsaʁt], English see fn.),[1] baptismal name Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart[2] (27 January 1756 – 5 December 1791), was a prolific and influential composer of the Classical era. He composed over 600 works, many acknowledged as pinnacles of symphonic, concertante, chamber, operatic, and choral music. He is among the most enduringly popular of classical composers.

                            Renaissance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

                            The Renaissance (UK: /rɨˈneɪsəns/, US: /ˈrɛnɨsɑːns/, French pronunciation: [ʁənɛsɑ̃ːs], Italian: Rinascimento, French: Renaissance, from rinascere "to be reborn")[1] was a cultural movement that spanned the period roughly from the 14th to the 17th century, beginning in Italy in the Late Middle Ages and later spreading to the rest of Europe. Though the invention of printing sped the dissemination of ideas from the later 15th century, the changes of the Renaissance were not uniformly experienced across Europe. As a cultural movement, it encompassed innovative flowering of Latin and vernacular literatures, beginning with the 14th-century resurgence of learning based on classical sources, which contemporaries credited to Petrarch, the development of linear perspective and other techniques of rendering a more natural reality in painting, and gradual but widespread educational reform. In politics the Renaissance contributed the development of the conventions of diplomacy, and in science an increased reliance on observation that would flower later in the Scientific Revolution beginning in the 17th century. Traditionally, this intellectual transformation has resulted in the Renaissance being viewed as a bridge between the Middle Ages and the Modern era. Although the Renaissance saw revolutions in many intellectual pursuits, as well as social and political upheaval, it is perhaps best known for its artistic developments and the contributions of such polymaths as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, who inspired the term "Renaissance man".[2][

                              • Let us go back to the Tarot Card 4

                                4 - High Priestess



                                Interpretation

                                The High Priestess represents the feminine components of the subconscious mind. She stands for those subconscious processes that are most hidden, those which invisibly nurture, develop, connect and relate, those which transcend duality. For, although she is a virgin priestess and represents all the eternally virgin goddesses, she is also the vehicle of hidden gestation and the First Mother in potentia, the concealed mother required to manifest the spiritual. As such she also represents the subconscious, synthetic processes of memory.

                                The activity of the High Priestess is symbolized by the abyssal water - impenetrably dark, infinitely deep, always mixing, flowing, seeking its own level; by yielding she is as forceful as the mighty river Ocean. Her tears are the healing dew, always striving to restore wholeness when division has gone too far.

                                Like the Moon, the High Priestess is steadfast in changing, for she is the principle of hidden change by cyclic growth and decline. She represents the oscillating balance of matter and spirit, for she turns her face alternately toward the earth and the sun. When she looks toward earth, she is the primary matter necessary for the manifestation of the spirit, the neutral vessel of good and evil. When she looks to the sun, she is the means of spiritual attainment, the Spiritual Bride and Mother, Sophia, the Redemptrix (the Medians ) .

                                The High Priestess is pre-eminently occult, for her work is hidden. When she turns her face away, she vanishes into her own shadow (the new moon), and when she meets the sun in closest conjunction, she also hides his face - an occultation (eclipse). The High Priestess embodies the most spiritual aspects of the feminine.
                                -------------------

                                The moon is a mediator, like Hermes, who stands between heaven and earth, facing each in turn, and thereby showing the downward and upward paths (Jung, MC 25). She rules all the waxing and waning phenomena in the world (von Franz 149-50). The Carmina Burana (Schmeller no. 1; Harrington 379; Whicher 262) say that Luna is steadfast in her changing (statu variabilis).
                                Commentary
                                The High Priestess's lunar diadem reminds us that she is Mistress of the Pentacle.

                                "The mythology of the moon is an object lesson in female psychology" (Jung, MC 175). In the male, the lunar psychology manifests as the anima in the subconscious, which is predominantly represented by the dark of the moon. In the female, the lunar psychology is conscious, and is predominantly represented by the light of the moon. In contrast to the sharp, discriminating light of the sun, the light of the moon merges and relates. This "lunatic" logic cloaks itself in half-darkness or the "shimmer of innocence" (Jung, MC 179, 181).

                                In the female, the solar psychology manifests as the animus in the subconscious, which is represented by the Sol Niger (Black Sun). The woman's mind, comprising the light of the moon (conscious) and the dark sun (unconscious), is not so extreme in dark and light as the man's, which comprises the bright sun (conscious) and the dark moon (subconscious) (Jung, MC 181). We will see that II.Empress = bright moon, III.Emperor = bright sun, IV. High Priestess = dark moon, V. High Priest = dark sun. These are the four "personalities" present when man and woman come together (von Franz 152). At the subconscious level this may become a confrontation between the Sword and Cup, for "when animus and anima meet, the animus draws his sword of power and the anima ejects her poison of illusion and seduction" (Jung, A. 15). However, all four "personalities" manifest to varying degrees in all people.







                                The numbers three, nine and 27 are sacred to the moon. The 27 stars on the canopy represent the days on which the moon is visible (27 = 3 X 9, the third power of three). (Schimmel 60, 169, 238) The moon is an attribute of Artemis, and mugwort (artemesia) is a lunar herb (OCD, s.v. Artemis; Pliny, Hist. Nat. 25.36).

                                The alchemists say that Virgin Diana is the First Mother and the First Matter: Prima Mater and Prima Materia, the feminine transformative substance, the redemptrix (soteira) (Case 50; Jung MC 18). She is the Spiritual Bride and Mother (Case, 51, after Waite). So she is called Mater Alchimia (Mother Alchemy), the Matter of All Things, the Matrix, Femina, Virgo (Virgin) Puella (Girl) Praegnans (Pregnant), Sophia, Luna and even Meretrix (*****), for she is "the vessel and the matter of good and evil" (Jung, MC 18, 20, 105). Plutarch says Selene is the Mother of the Cosmos; she is impregnated by Helios, the High Priest (Jung, MC 177). As is well known, matter, mater (mother) and matrix all derive from the same Indo-European root mater-, which means mother (AHD s.vv.).
