This is the first post in my annual Winter Solstice Golden Rule series which asks the question: What Should Healthy Spiritual Economics Look Like? I’ll graft in the idea of Neo-homesteading laws this year which, in part, would mean the crown once again frees up land for the people.
The great conjunction happens on December 21st and HERE is a link that goes into the details of this. And just a note that this post IS NOT an astrology hermeneutic–it’s my own idiosyncratic musing and opinion.
In mythology the El in Israel although having roots in Canaanite mythology is also drawn from the planet Saturn–the seventh planet from the perspective of the Bronze Age civilization (including the sun and moon) –it also became entwined with Israel and its Sabbath and the seventh day.
In Rome, the primary God was Jupiter also known as the God of Thunder– much like Thor and our Thursday comes from this–the tribal deity Yahweh was also known as a volcano and thunder god.
So, what does this have to do with the price of tea in China? Well, this great conjunction in 2020 between Jupiter and Saturn is symbolic of the union between Rome and Judaism which began when Constantine organized incredibly diverse Christian sects into the state religion of Rome. This gambit had at its core, the tenet that Yahweh was and is the father of Christ or what I call the Gnostic Aeon Kristos. Nothing could be more untrue and today the planets are telling us that Rome and Judaism are a pair and deeply intertwined. When I cover this issue in other posts I always make it clear that this was a messy business.
This shouldn’t really be as shocking as the usual suspects would have us believe. Even normative views on the End Times declare a merging between the Whore Of Babylon (world finance mixed with religion) and the coming of the Jewish Messiah known as the Anti-Christ in Christian mythology. So, indeed, we have this merging of Jupiter and Saturn even within mainstream Christian theology. All I’m saying is that this merger began with Constantine and is nothing new. Research what happened to Christians in those years and you’ll find that they became serfs; although this is more a matter of the dubious financial machine of the time which was disintegrating, the parallels are still here today as what I call the Unholy Trinity (government, banks, corporations) are once again creating neo-feudalism and modern serfdom.
Interestingly, Jupiter had two ‘consorts’: Juno and Moneta.
The historical Christ narrative also has Jesus profiled with two Marys. Coincidence? Perhaps. But more interestingly, and more to the point of this blog, is what these two goddesses represent: coinage or money and it’s where our understanding of the financial machine comes from. Moneta is the root of our word money and the American dollar has the all-seeing eye of the Demiurge. Another note here: I’ve said time and time again that the Demiurge construct could be non-dual and that good and evil within it are not necessarily the result of a personal God–it’s not my view, but I always concede it could be–that the Demiurge is impersonal and beyond good and evil.
So the idea of the feminine money whore likely has its roots in Rome–fair warning:-P
Just a note that this 12-part series is aimed at Christendom asking it (and them) the question of How Shall We Live? Especially in the field of economics. Of course, other spiritualists are welcome to chime in.
It’s good to see some posts on Buddhist economics this year and I’ll touch on them when we get to Buddhism in this series.
I guess I’ll have to touch on DIVOC-91 in this series, too…
My definition of structural cognitive dissonance: we’ve shut down the economy! Are you looking for work?
What a bunch of fcukin’ morons! Although I do get in this case it has to do with EL(opps E.I).. templates…but still, it’s crazy!
The previous year is HERE.
