Eclipse Gate 2012

" Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn her Seven Pillars."
Proverbs 9.1

In 2012, two magnificent eclipses will shadow our Earth, one in May
across Hong Kong, Tokyo, across the Pacific Ocean into Western
United States and the other in November directly over Cairns,
Australia. Astrologically, they both connect with very significant
stars that the ancients gave much spiritual credence to. These two
eclipses both precede the end of the Mayan Calendar that is said to
end on the 21st December and according to John Major Jenkins, an
alignment of the Solstice Sun with the Milky Way culminates a World
Age.1
Eclipses come and go without much interest for many, however the
Hermetic astrologers of the mystery schools of Egypt and Greece knew
that an eclipse created a tunnel to higher realms where they could
communicate directly with the star gods and access their sacred
wisdom. It was a cosmic thoroughfare and stellar gateway. Scientific
tests have shown that during an eclipse, electromagnetic fields
increased significantly, especially near scared sites. What could it
mean for us?
On May 20th a solar eclipse will occur, one that I believe is why
2012 is so cosmically significant. The Sun and the Moon (New Moon)
will be exactly conjunct Alcyone, the central star of the Pleiades,
in Taurus. The Pleiadian star system has been one of the most
revered cosmic objects in history, poetry and mythology across all
cultures. According to the cultural traditions, the seven visible
stars of the Pleiades have been referred to by many names, such as
the Seven Sisters, Krittika, Kimah, Flock of Doves, Hens, Virgins of
Spring, Sailor's Stars and the seven Atlantic Sisters. "The Pleiades
were known as Seven Sisters by indigenous people In North Ameica,
Siberia and Australia and this common heritage means they were
described more than 40,000 years ago." 2
`The Pleiades seem to be among the first stars mentioned in
astronomical literature, appearing in the Chinese annuls of 2357 BC,
Alcyone, the lucida, then being near the vernal equinox….And their
beginning of the year gave rise to the title `The Great Year of the
Pleiades' for the cycle of precession of about 25, 900 years." 3
Professor Charles Piazzi Smyth in the late 19th century suggested
that that the seven chambers of the Great Pyramid of Giza
commemorate these seven stars. 4 "And here is a wonderful
corresponding fact, that the date of the Great Pyramids completion,
at midnight of the autumnal equinox…the Pleiades were distributed
over the meridian of this pyramid, with Alcyone precisely on the
line. " 5
What if the Great Pyramid was actually built in honor of the
Pleiades when they rose at the vernal equinox 2336 BC and completed
by 2170, as suggested by Siess. According to Albert Churchward the
name of the Great Pyramid was `Khuti,' which denoted the seven
Lights, or Glorious Ones. `Egyptian texts allude to Pleiades'
archaic significance as Krittitas, judges of men, assigning them
also to seven planetary spheres as the seven Hathors. The dead had
to speak the names of these Goddesses to pass their `critical'
examination and enter paradise." 6
I believe this is the source of the Judgement of the Dead linked
with the month of November, when the Pleiades are high in the night
sky. In the Halls of Amenti, Maat and Thoth weighed the souls of the
dead against the feather of truth as did Archangel Michael on the
day of judgement, All Soul's Day, 2nd November. The ancient Celtic
civilisation gathered to celebrate the festival of death `Samhain'
during the dark night of October 31st and at midnight, a time of
death to the old year and birth to the new, it was the Celtic New
Year. November is the month of the dead and Scorpio and ruling
planet Pluto are all connected with death and rebirth. The Persians
called November Mordad, or "Angel of Death."
I often wonder how the zodiac signs acquired their symbolism, for
example why Scorpio and its eight house and ruler Pluto are all
linked to death and rebirth? What I have found through my research
into The Pleiades, might be the answer. It has been recorded in the
Babylonian Talmud that the flood of Biblical Noah was the result of
two stars falling from Khima (the Pleiades) towards earth. Could
this correspond with the legend of the lost pleid? Was this the
sinking of Atlantis and the end of the Golden Age and thus we still
mourn the dead in November? I discovered some very confirming
evidence in the book When the Earth Nearly Died by Allen and
Delair. They argue that the world experienced total catastrophe in
9500 BC when a Vela supernova exploded and the Earth's axis
subsequently tilted to 23 and a half degrees and the Age of Darkness
took hold. What I found in the book was this. "Chinese traditions
similarly tell how, during the time of the legendary emperor Ya-
hou: `a brilliant star issued from the constellation of Yin' prior
to a tremendous global upheaval." 7 I searched my Chinese Astrology
book and found the Yin Star to correspond with Beta Scorpionis
(Graffias, a triple star situated in the head of the Scorpion) and
connected with plenty of water (flood). The symbol of Yin and Yang
thus represents Scorpio (Yin) and its opposite sign Taurus (Yang).
Remember in November, the Sun is in Scorpio but at night The
Pleiades are high in the sky, in Taurus. Thus, does the symbolism of
the constellations, zodiac signs and planets reflect actual
historical events?
Many ancient traditions state that Alcyone was the Central Spiritual
Sun that emits creative Light, that which sends great teachers of
Light into the world. It was believed to be the centre of the
Universe around which our own solar system revolves but this idea is
not supported by our current astronomers although in the 1850's it
well accepted. "Science has at last discovered that the Sun is not
a dead centre, with planets and comets wheeling around it but itself
stationary. It is now ascertained that the Sun is also in motion,
around some other and vastly mightier centre. Astronomers are not
fully agreed as to what or where that centre is. Some however
believe that they have found the direction of it to be the Pleiades,
and particularly Alcyone. To the distinguished astronomer,
Prof.J.H, Maedler belongs the honour of having made this discovery.
Alcyone, then, as far as science can perceive, would seem to be
the "midnight throne" in which the whole system of gravitation has a
central seat, and from which the Almighty governs his universe." 8
An astronomer will tell you this is complete rubbish but I want to
go back to the ancient traditions. Alcyone was called Al Wasat, the
Central One by the Arabs and Temennu, the Foundation Stone by the
Babylonians. The next quotation I found in a wonderful book on
ancient constellations called the Mazzaroth."Wasat, an Arabic name
of Alcyone, transmitted by Ulugh Beigh from early Arabian astronomy,
is the centre. It thus testifies, like that of Alcyone, to the
knowledge of the first astronomers of the long lost but lately
removed fact, that in this group is the centre of the revolving,
contains the same reference, if explained by its primitive roots.
The ancient name Alcyone, now so celebrated in the annuals of
science, is evidently of Oriental origin, having the Arabic and old
Hebrew article Al, prefixed to its root Cyon, centre. Its meaning,
centre, foundation, anticipates one of the greatest achievements of
modern astronomy, the discovery that to this point, this centre,
gravitates the whole magnificent arrangement of the stars called the
Galaxy, to which our sun belongs." 9 Does Cyon not sound like
Sion/Zion - the heavenly city of God? "Glorious things of Thee are
spoken, Zion city of our God." Psalm 87. The Hebrews believed it to
be the City of David- the City of the Lord- the City of Foundation.
I found an intriguing article by ken Raines on the Internet
called `Jehovah: Ancient Astronaut from the Pleiades?'10 Apparently
for 62 years, 1891 – 1953, the Watchtower Society (Jehovah's
Witness) taught that God resided on the star Alcyone in the Pleiades
constellation and that from this star he governed the universe. It
was also stated that the City of Zion in heaven was Alcyone. Much of
this was based on Rev. Joseph Seiss' book, Miracle in Stone, that he
based heavily on Prof. Piazzi Smyth's Our Inheritance in the Great
Pyramid. I'm going to add something here, just for a bit of bite.
According to David Icke, 11 Charles Taze Russell, the founder of the
Watchtower Society was a high degree Mason. Why am I going here?
Because secret societies keep ancient wisdom behind locked doors. I
have a book by Robert Hewitt Brown; a 32-degree Mason called Stellar
Theology and Masonic Astronomy. On page 54 is a picture of a mystic
ladder that leads to the seven stars of the Pleiades. He
explains, `This Masonic emblem, has a direct allusion to the vernal
equinox, and thus becomes a beautiful symbol of immortality,
reminding us, also, of that starry home beyond the grave to which
the soul of man aspires. It was for these reasons that, of all
the `hosts of heaven' the Pleiades were selected as an emblem by our
ancient brethren." 12 Is there a Pleiadian conspiracy? Who wants to
keep us in the dark?
The Mayans called the Pleiades `the cranary" for it was the
seedbed of their civilisation and the cosmic star mother who gave
her children the codes of light.13 Jose Arguelles describes the
beginning of the current Mayan Age from 3113 BC – 2718BC, which is
said to end in 2012, the Baktun of the Star Planting. For him, the
Maya were star-beings, from a starbase, possibly in the Pleiades
called Valum Chivim.14 Does this suggest that every 5200 years, the
Earth experiences a massive star seeding? This brings me back to the
Eclipse in May conjunct Alcyone, remember the ancients believed an
eclipse created a tunnel to their star gods – could a portal open
directly to Alcyone? If you believe all the chanelled material
regarding the Pleiadians, they are returning to aid our planetary
ascension into a higher frequency.
In Australia, on the 14th November, a Solar Eclipse will shadow
across our land, the centreline directly over Cairns. This eclipse
will be exactly conjunct the Fixed Star of Serpens in Scorpio. The
Serpent is one of the most ancient of symbols denoting wisdom used
by high initiates in the mystery schools. `Many Gnostic traditions
identified the Serpent with Jesus. In the Pistis Sophia, Jesus was
the serpent who spoke to Eve `from the tree of knowledge and the
tree of life, which were in the paradise of Adam.'" 15 Mark Amaru
Pinkham in his book The Return of the Serpents of Wisdom,
explores the worldwide migration of serpents, some from
Mu (Lemuria), and others from Atlantis. They were called Nagas,
Naguals, Nacaals, Adders, Djedhi, Amarus, Levites, Lung Dragons and
Quetzlcoatls. In ancient Aramaic, Jesus was called a nagger 16 which
in the Bible was mistranslated as a carpenter when in actual fact I
found the word for carpenter to be nanger. Jesus was a nagger – a
serpent of wisdom. According to Pinkham, at thirteen Jesus left
Palestine and set off to study the mystery traditions of other
branches of Serpents of Wisdom around the globe. His subsequent
adventures are currently mentioned within various records, including
the travels of `Issa' (Asian name for Jesus) which were discovered
in 1887 by the Russian adventurer Nicholas Notavich in a monastery
in Ladakh.' 17
There are many traditions, which also state that the Serpents were
Extra-terrestrials. ` Some of the Interstellar Serpents on Atlantis
came from the Celestial Serpent, the Pleiades. [According to Dhyani
Ywahoo] the records of Cherokees, these androgynous Serpents are
known as the `sacred seven,' and said to have traveled from the
universal seat of Divine Mind, the Pleiades, in order to instill
within developing humankind the spark of the individuated mind. Once
on the Earth the Pleiadian missionaries mated with the human
population and their progeny spread throughout Atlantis.' 18 Could
this be the source of the Fallen Angels in The Book of Enoch?
This Pleiadian and Atlantean mating was also mentioned by Greek
Historian Diodorus who claimed that Celoene and Alcyone, two of the
seven Pleiadian sisters, had mated with Poseidon, King of Atlantis
and their offspring populated Atlantis.
The Maya/Aztec called the Pleiades the `tzab' (rattle) – that of a
snake and every 52 years, in the middle of November, when the
Pleiades were directly at the zenith at midnight at Mexican
latitude, it was believed that the world would end; it had already
been destroyed and re-created four times in the past. The New Fire
Ceremony was held once they knew that they were safe for another 52
years. Using my Solarfire software, I calculated a chart for 14th
November at midnight, and Alcyone is exactly at the zenith point at
the Latitude of Yucatan in Mexico. Therefore, the Eclipse over
Australia coincides with the New Fire Ceremony – the symbolic
beginning of the New World. 52 years is a micro cycle of the greater
5200 years of each of the Mayan world ages being a fifth of the
Great Cycle of 26,000, originally called the Great Year of Pleiades.
In 2012, we have reached the end of an Age and thus at the dawn of a
New World.
In esoteric literature, Australia has always been believed to be
the land to host a mass spiritual awakening. Australia is said to be
a fragment of Lemuria or `Mu' – an ancient motherland of advanced
spiritual light beings (nagas) now below the pacific. The Australian
Aborigines are believed to be direct descendants of Lemuria, much
like the Native Americans, Mayans and the Incas. Will this Eclipse
put Australia on the map as the spiritual center of the New Age? See
you in Cairns!
