The Djed Pillar and The Wicker Man


The following material is a study using input from two DVDs; The Wicker Man and Dark Secrets Inside Bohemian Grove. Earlier, I suggested that old cosmological stories follow the zodiacal and decanate constellations from the Sphinx down to the Dagon. The cosmos has only completed half of its life at Pisces/Aquarius. At the Bohemian Grove the elites perform a type of burning man ceremony that is essentially old cosmology. It is old Dagon cosmology. It is actually why the church used to burn heathens and witches at the stake--it was their original cosmology. In the Bohemian Grove ritual from Alex Jones’s Dark Secrets Inside Bohemian Grove, Care gets executed by the local version of Set. Such betrayal scenes are isomorphs of the transition between early childhood to adolescence. At the end of early childhood (the first quarter of life), Mind betrays Heart and Consciousness watches. Mind usually has an older man as a correspondent. Heart usually has a young girl or in later times a male hero as a correspondent. Consciousness can probably have either gender as a correspondent. In ancient times Heart was symbolized by a young girl. Mind was symbolized by an older man. This still holds true in Satanic rituals. A young girl is often betrayed in Satanic rituals by an older male, possibly her father, through ritual rape or worse. The Satanic priest’s wife might even watch. Here, I plan to show how The Wicker Man movie follows the constellations from the Sphinx of Virgo/Leo to the Dagon of Pisces/Aquarius. In this movie the man is betrayed by (his daughter) the young girl and the woman watches. They have switched things around a bit to confuse us. The Wicker Man movie should properly have had the man betray the young girl while the woman watches to fit the old correspondences better. I’ll have to return to this at some of the crucial moments.


We are starting at the top left side of the Djed Pillar and mapping The Wicker Man ritual motifs from the movie onto the old order of the constellations. The left side of the tree moving down is the “coming into existence” side--so as cosmology, we will go from the Raven down to the Ring. If you can, try to find a motif in the movie fitting a zodiacal or decanate constellation I may have missed or left out.


1. Raven
I did not see a raven in The Wicker Man. It might be hidden in a close-up or a costume. Imagine the movie ritual beginning with a raven flying out of the woods. Cosmological stories often follow the constellations closely while longer stories use more creative strategies like repeating sections of the sky or using the same constellation as different motifs.



2. Crater
Next we see some members of a festive crowd marching through the forest. They are dressed in costumes and drinking. One person drinking is drinking from the cup constellation, Crater. One of the crowd’s costumes might be that of the Lion constellation, Leo.


3. Hydra
The festive crew snakes through the forest and when they get to the grove they begin to split apart. They split at the front of the line into three and then everyone else gathers round the three.


This gathering around is often symbolized by the Cancer constellation. Cancer is also, for example, the three wise men arriving around the baby Jesus.


In The Wicker Man they symbolized the Beehive Nebula as the bees inside the round cage they put on the Nicolas Cage character’s head. Cancer was the cage. The betrayal has begun. Note the bee costume below. This is a stray bee buzzing around outside the cage of Cancer.

                       
4. Argos
Argos is the ship constellation. In the movie it is a “Death Boat” motif. It was the cloth “cot” on which he was carried.



5. Ursa Major and 6. Ursa Minor
Both Ursa Major and Ursa Minor look like a hip or leg. In the movie both of the victim’s legs are broken.

Do you see how they are holding him down? This is a subtle reference to the Orion constellation. The Orion constellation is Christ, Siegfried, Osiris etc.. All are heros similarly fully broken.


7. Canis Minor 8. Canis Major 9. Lepus
These are the characters that have been tampered with in the movie to confuse us. Canis Major is usually the watcher, Lepus is usually the betrayer and Orion is usually the one betrayed.

Instead of the horned male (Lepus) being the betrayer they have made a little girl (Canis Minor) the betrayer.
Canis Minor is the “little dog“--possibly offspring (in this case daughter) of the “big dog.” In stories I have never seen Canis Minor being a betrayer, Dogs are known for fidelity, they are sometimes called “Fido.” They are trusted by the Orion character. Canis Minor is usually a small trusted relative or pet of the person getting betrayed. Canis Minor could very well be a second watcher.


In the movie we actually have a “horned one” doing the betraying work of Lepus because they would have had trouble skipping it. Here he is:

10. Auriga
10. Auriga is either a cave, a rabbit hole or some sort of close helper of the betrayer. .


11. Eridanus
Eridanus is usually the path of the betrayed to his or her death. It could be Jesus carrying his cross. It could be Osiris floating down the Nile or Siegfried on his Rhine journey. The story of Noah’s Ark is cosmology. Eridanus is the path of Noah’s Ark from Gemini/Taurus to Pisces/Aquarius. This trip takes 40 days. The spring equinox will change 40 days between Gemini/Taurus and Pisces/Aquarius. The current spring equinox is March 21. 10 more days gets us to March 31. 30 more days gets us to April 30 (Walpurgisnacht), the spring equinox three zodiacal ages before 2001, 4479 BC.



12. Orion
Orion is often the one getting betrayed or the hero. In The Wicker Man it is the Nicolas Cage character. In mythology Orion is Osiris, Jesus and others.


One of Orion’s appendages is across the Milky Way just as Cage’s leg is shown here across the tree logs.



13. Perseus
Perseus is often a successful hero. The constellation can also be an invisibility cloak or cape. I did not recognize a clear Perseus motif in the movie parade and betrayal. I believe some of the people in the ritual wearing capes are the Perseus motif.



14. Cetus is a big monster, opponent or big thing. In the story of Osiris the Cetus constellation is Osiris floating past the stone Sphinx. In The Wicker Man it is when Cage sees the large humanoid structure in the distance. In the Odyssey it was the Cyclops substory. In Dante’s Inferno it was the flying beast Geryon. I think it is when Jesus had his doubts about his fate.



15. Cassiopea and 16. Cepheus
Cassiopia and Cepheus in stories are often two church bureaucrats or elders. At least one of the two is some kind of usurper. In the Odyssey the two were Odysseus and Circe. We get the word Church from Circe. Below is the Cassiopea character from The Wicker Man. There is no definite Cepheus in the movie; so I think the woman shown along side this Cassiopea is her current squeeze--a female version of Cepheus. The colors should be red (Mars) and/or black(Saturn) not white(Sol) and blue(Moon). White and blue are colors of consciousness and heart at the other end of the pillar.

                    

 17. Andromeda
In The Wicker Man, the little girl is both the Canis Minor and Andromeda constellations. The Andromeda constellation usually refers to compassion constrained but here they have made her a killer.


                        

The Andromeda constellation is near the bottom of the world tree near Pisces/Aquarius and consequently also at the bottom of the Ankh. This motif is shown below. She (Andromeda) is the last bit of “Yin” on the side of “Yang.” She (Andromeda) is released near Pisces/Aquarius.


18. Ring
Here is how the Ring asterism relates to Andromeda:


The Ring is a bright spot on one of the appendages of Andromeda. It is the fetter that binds Andromeda to the square rock of Pegasus. The fire when the little girl lights the large structure is this ring asterism.

                         
The Ring was also a compass on an appendage of Andromeda in the recent The Golden Compass movie.

Cosmology and the Djed Pillar


Above is a dead bird. The bird fell from the world of spirit. In the carcass one can see animalcules, micro organisms, and bugs. A spirit died, fell to earth and the carcass became the mother-world for us animalcules micro organisms and bugs and people. This is an example of the older type cosmology, Sphinx cosmology. In it, we are each and all the resurrected spirit. We are all like a phoenix coming back to life.


In the old sky stories and on the Dendera stone (that Napoleon “borrowed” from the temple of Hathor in Heliopolis and which is now in the Louvre) spirit resurrections take place in stories using the constellations for memory “jogs” at or near Pisces/Aquarius, across from their spirit beginning at the Sphinx. The Phoenix constellation for example is just “below” Pisces/Aquarius. Just as the Jesus story has its resurrection near isces/Aquarius so too do others like the Phoenix.


Resurrection in old stories occurred at or near Pisces/Aquarius and the beginnings of these stories were at Virgo/Leo. The river constellation Eridanus above can be seen leading to the Phoenix. Osiris floated down the Nile river and Jesus was compelled to carry his cross on such a path. The Phoenix burned up and fell in the path of Eridanus. The stories began in the world of spirit at the Sphinx. If they are about cosmology alone they end on the material side of the Dendera stone near Pisces/Aquarius. This is because the cosmos has not yet completed its life cycle. If the stories are about anything else, things that HAVE completed their life cycles, the stories continue on back to Virgo/Leo, and end at the Sphinx. The cosmos completed a half cycle--that of coming into existence.

We can make a ladder out of it, one side of the ladder has the path from spirit to matter and the other side of the ladder has the path from matter back to spirit. This is called Jacob’s Ladder. Jacob saw angels coming down one side and going up the other. Children descend from spirit into the world on one side of the ladder and adults ascend from material up to spirit on the other side of the ladder. Spirit and matter are at the opposing ends of the ladder.
 



The two towers above is a “hidden symbol “ of Jacob’s Ladder. Who does one hope to find at the church above?

The Pope
 
Why does the Pope wear a fish-hat? We need to look at the major and minor axis of the galaxy mapped onto the zodiac.

The major and minor axis of the galaxy mapped onto the zodiac divides it into four parts. They are the seasons of the Great Year. The ancient symbol for these four CYCLICAL TIME PERIODS was the Cherub.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
Cherub


The Cherub has the head of a man, the hooves of a bull, the body of a lion and the wings of an eagle. They are the four constellations circled below. The people with the cherub idea thought the Scorpio constellation looked like an eagle. They also thought the Aquarius constellation looked like a man. The Cherub divides the zodiac and the other (decanate) constellations into four parts. It divides the zodiac and decanate constellations into time periods like the seasons. It divides the Great Year into time periods like the seasons. It divides life stories told with the constellations into time periods like the seasons. Each time period begins with one of the composite symbols of the cherub. We are today in the three-age time period starting with Aquarius, beginning the third quarter of the Great Year. From now on in the civilization, our material identification will be going out of existence.



The people with the cherub idea provide the ancient precedent that the constellation Aquarius was thought by some to be a “Man.” There is an ancient fish-man symbol called the Dagon.



Dagon

The Dagon is the old symbol for Pisces/Aquarius, the opposer of the Sphinx.


The Pope is the symbolic opposer of the Sphinx. The Pope has a different cosmology. The Sphinx and Dagon approaches to life are polar opposites. This knowledge is from the ancient world and has been appropriated and hidden by those who own and rule our world. I may be destroyed for telling this story. If Rachel Corrie can stand in front of a bulldozer, I can write this blog. The Sphinx represents the sacred here on earth. In the Sphinx view we are EACH and ALL like the earlier described Phoenix, the same spirit resurrected. We share the spirit. The spirit is sacred. The shared spirit is called Sol or Soul. In contrast, the Dagon represents the sacred AWAY somewhere. We are all like stones rejected by the builder, Set. Like the 30 pieces of silver of Judas, where did the wealth of the current world regime come from? It comes from a betrayal during the last apocalypse. When did this betrayal occur? Betrayals in sky stories occur near Gemini/Taurus. Three ages before 9-11, on the spring equinox, the sky was as below: Notice how both constellations and planets are at Gemini/Taurus.


The betrayal occurred on the last apocalypse, three zodiacal ages before 2001. The betrayal was recently reenacted and renewed between the ages of Pisces and Aquarius by the current rulers of the world on 9-11.

Long ago, Saturn betrayed Soul, which we now call “the Sun,” and the Moon watched. Set (Lepus) betrayed Osiris (Orion) and Isis (Canis Major) watched. The old world changed from spirit to material on that old date celebrated now as “Walpurgisnacht.” The old world changed from feminine to masculine. The old world changed from Sphinx to Dagon. The modern Walpurgisnacht holiday is the date of the spring equinox that marked the change--of the last apocalypse! This is Satanism before Christianity and before writing! The old name for it was “Saturnism.” Saturn opposes Soul or Sol (called by Saturnists “Sun”) on Jacob’s Ladder. The order of the planets I use below comes from the days of the week. The fourth step on the ladder is the Milky Way boundary between Material and Spiritual sides.


Jacob’s Ladder is a ladder from material to spirit, from betrayal to compassion. It climbs up the rotational axis of the Milky Way galaxy. Each planet has a color, the ladder is the “rainbow bridge” of the Odinists and the steps are the chakras of the Hindus. One may fly on an eagle sideways back to childhood across each step and purge toxic formative influences and then climb up another step. This flying into the past and returning is why Mercury or Change has wings on his shoes. Remember there was an eagle at Scorpio. The biggest change takes place at the 4th step. It is the change from material identification to spiritual identification.

9-11 was the breaking (by sympathetic magic) of the ladder-like return path from mind at Pisces/Aquarius to heart at Virgo/Leo. Because they have broken the symbolic path to spirit with airplanes we are now thought to be magically trapped in their materialism. This was done by the devotees of the mind in order to consolidate and demonstrate their power. They have in symbols destroyed the way to the heart. This was also done “for” them as little children. It is why Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, Glen Beck have compassion holes where their hearts should be. Minotaurs eat children and the Minotaur is a symbol for the three zodiacal age periods of Taurus, Aries and Pisces. As children these persons were eaten by the Minotaur. The Minotaur is Bull+Man or Taurus+Aquarius. They have gained the whole world but lost their souls. All are millionaire mouthpiece enemies of compassion and “Social Justice.”

The world of soul fell a long time ago during “The Mists of Avalon”--when the sun during the spring equinox was crossing the mists of the Milky Way (of Gemini/Taurus).
There is a stone and a grotto or cave below Pisces/Aquarius. The cave or grotto is the circle of stars that never rise. The stone is the southern circle of precession of the Earth’s rotational axis. Jacob slept with his head on this stone. Jesus like Osiris moved it aside and emerged from the cave or grotto. This subject is called Bardic Astronomy.

Above there is an opposite circle of constellations that never “set” or get betrayed at the top of our ladder or world tree. There is a room and a hole above Virgo/Leo. The room is the circle of stars that never set. The hole is the circle of precession of the Earth’s rotational axis. Within this “hole” of spirit is the dragon constellation.
 



We can now go back to another of Jacob’s Ladders and put the hole, room, stone and grotto in:

 

The whole scheme is the World Tree or Djed Pillar. Remember, the stories are told with the 36 decanates or “prince” constellations and the zodiacal constellations AND the boundaries of the quarters, the stone, the grotto, the Ankh, etc. Below are the constellations on the Djed pillar: The two sides, the side of coming into existence and the side of going out of existence are also the “Pillars of Atlantis” and the two sides together are the “Hall of Records” as Cayce correctly said, below the Sphinx.



The two sides are found in other places in our culture. The Elites teach their children by explaining the various symbols found in the culture. At any one time, half the story is visible.



The Ankh uses a yoni for the feminine side and a lingam for the masculine side and includes the Milky Way boundary.



Just as below the world tree there is a stone and a grotto, above the Ankh is a room (the circle of stars that never set) and within it a Hole (the circle of north polar precession) of spiritual anti-matter or lets say a crown with a missing a gem. This is where spirit resides. Here is the Egyptian glyph:


The Holy Grail is also upstairs in the room by Virgo/Leo, it is the second decanate of Leo. The important thing is that spirit is at the top, or “up.”
 
The two opposites can be held apart by the “story in the stars” Ankh-person. Below is Shu holding up the sky like Atlas in this way. Geb is matter, Nut is spirit. The graphic comes from an Acharya S. web page--she appears to have no knowledge the constellations were used as memory jogs in the bardic system. I seem to be the only one on the face of the earth with either the courage or the foolishness to present such ideas. I am Anubis resurrecting Osiris as Horus, the singular head of a spiritual hydra. Human beings are not robots and they are not going to become robots.


The Ankh is also the story Odysseus when he has fastened himself to the mast of his ship--his crew having their ears plugged with bees wax. At the bottom of the Ankh, are the two constellations Andromeda and Pegasus. The square of Pegasus is the rock to which Andromeda is chained. In the Odyssey story Andromeda is a siren and Pegasus is one of the rocks that crash the ships. Odysseus was fastened to the mast above listening to the sirens below. The sirens of Pisces/Aquarius are in our world today--the voice of materialism trying to keep its hold on us. They are trying to make us crash. The sirens say “You have made the radical socialist Obama your god.” “Your true god is Jesus the capitalist.“ “No one following Jesus wanted social justice and the redistribution of wealth like Obama.” The sirens speak of the materialistic “greed is good” when the time for symbiotic relationships at hand. The constellation Andromeda is also Prometheus chained to a rock (Square of Pegasus) one of the birds eating his liver is Cygnus, the first decanate of Aquarius. The idea is to reverse engineer the bardic science. Do you remember Isis turning into a hummingbird from Plutarch’s story of Isis, Osiris and Set? Cygnus is the Hummingbird and the Djed Pillar is the tree that grew up through the coffin of Osiris. Cygnus was also a plane on 9-11, Pegasus was the tower, Andromeda was a person falling off the tower, the path of the solar “Tod Beamer” was Eridanus. Beamer's flight ended at the circle of south polar precession--at the Benben stone.
