Carl James @ Birmingham Truth Juice - Disney Darkside

Hey folks, hope you are all well and looking forward to a happy and healthy 2017. I know I am! 2016 wasn't a particularly good year for me so I am really glad that the calendar has turned - a fresh chapter! I have been incredibly busy over the last few weeks - with research and writing. I am in the early stages of some new projects and devoting as much time and energy as I can to them. I don't want to say too much at this point - I jumped the proverbial "gun" in 2016 by announcing various projects and then health problems scuppered pretty much all of them! Suffice to say, at this point, I am researching and writing a new book on the subject of the power of the media - although I imagine this will be something of a middling to long-term project. I am also working on adapting several chapters from my "Science Fiction and the Hidden Global Agenda" books into videos for my YouTube channel. I will keep you posted on that.

In the more immediate future, I will be giving a talk at the Birmingham Truth Juice gathering on Tuesday 14th February 2017. If you are in the area and fancy coming along, I really look forward to seeing you there. Birmingham Truth Juice has a great audience filled with very open minded, interesting and friendly people. The title of this talk is "Disney Darkside". I postponed doing this talk for nearly a year due to health problems in 2016 and in many ways I am glad I did - as it allowed me to bring the subject fully up to date and incorporate my contact with several very well connected individuals.

All the details of the talk are below. Full details are also available on the Truth Juice website: http://birmingham.truthjuice.co.uk/index.php/2016/10/carl-james-in-birmingham-on-140217/

Hopefully see you there.
All the best wishes for now,
Carl.

“Disney Darkside” – A Talk by Carl James

Disney is synonymous with wholesome values, memorable stories and films that will put a smile on the faces of all the family. But is there something far more sinister lurking beneath the surface of the “House of Mouse”? In this presentation, alternative knowledge researcher and author of the book “Science Fiction and the Hidden Global Agenda” will examine the long-known “dark side” of Disney – looking at its documented relationship with the military / industrial complex, and their use of embedded sexual and arcane symbolism, social engineering and fragmentation, alleged mind control programming, and so on. Carl will also recount how his research brought him into contact with a prominent Disney insider and how this contact set him off on an even darker investigation – one that involves the likes of J.J. Abrams, Star Wars, Saturn worship, energy, consciousness, transformation, and the very nature of reality. In asking the question – what are Disney really up to? – Carl may have uncovered a startling answer with implications for all of humanity.

The Music Game, Laurel Canyon & The Forever 27 Club

A few days back, I had quite a lengthy and in-depth discussion with an “awakened” fellow muso about the possible true nature and implications of the music industry and the power of music in general. It is actually rare that I have these types of conversations with musos. Although that might sound a rather conceited comment to make, there is a very good reason why it is sadly the case.

My involvement with musically minded folk has been an almost lifelong experience, with the intensity increased in recent times – especially since my exposure to some of the greater truths of reality. I know from my own journey that the inherent nature of music (particularly for those involved with making music) is one of somewhat blind adoration. Musicians give themselves over, almost altruistically, to the sounds, ideas and influence of their muses. It may not necessarily be in the form of peer-involved hero worship, sometimes perhaps merely taking the form of a devotion to the power that created music can wield.

Here lies the problem: the “power” of music. It is no secret that, more than any other cultural experience, music can affect us hugely. There is no other phenomenon that can so effectively move us emotionally, allow us to recapture moments and experiences from our pasts, reshape our views of self and society at large, and so on. The individuals that harness this power should therefore have a staggering hold over the hearts and minds of the masses. In certain hands, it could (theoretically) be the basis of the power to change the world.

With this in mind, one could easily assume that singer/songwriters and musicians perhaps hold the most authoritative roles on the planet. Of course, they don’t! Power is most certainly wielded here, but it is only in the hands of the creators who haven’t deferred their power to a higher authority and I suspect there are very few cases of this in the music industry. Those who truly take advantage of the influence of music don’t create music; they simply finance and control its direction. Given what I have come to understand of such entities, you can be assured that it isn’t for any beneficial gain of the masses.

You might wonder why anybody with a conscience would wish to be affiliated with such a game. I can only use myself (and my peripheral experiences on the outskirts of the game) as an example in this case. Recently, I have come to truly understand and appreciate the value of independence from larger influences (even from the influence of fellow musos who have largely been indoctrinated by the tired mantras fed to them within the game – “you can’t write songs about that”, “you should do this because it’s what is most popular”, etc.)

Examining the processes at work in the music community reveals two distinct phenomena at work. The first and more obvious mechanism is routed through the visible conduits of money control, manipulation of psychological constructs (fear, love, sex, death, that sort of thing), deference to (or engineered defiance of) authority and peerage, etc. The second is a far more complex aspect, rooted in the ancient practices of ritual, worship and sacrifice.

The effectiveness of music to the power elite has truly come into focus in the last hundred years, especially since the advent of “popular music”. There are some well documented examples of how this was superficially achieved in the past. Here, I am reminded of the time when Frank Sinatra became involved with the campaign to elect JFK as US president and the song “High Hopes” was given new lyrics to encourage folk to “elect Jack Kennedy”!

Although this is an effective method of persuasion for many, there will always be an equal number of people who see right through it. In the case of Sinatra, it may have been that some people just didn’t want to vote for JFK. Others may have acted against the influence because they recognised that it was, albeit in a simplistic manner, a case of ‘being told what to do’. This highlights the, ultimately, limited success of such a superficial venture, but also shows the surface level of a much more complicated mechanism.

A number of alternative researchers have examined the methods that have been taken in the past, most notably during the 1960s, to usurp the influence of music. In the case of Alex Constantine and his fascinating book “The Covert War against Rock”, agencies such as the CIA are noted as having large vested interests in the music industry.

“In 1967, an increasingly subversive form of music melded with politics in San Francisco.  Still eclipsed by federal classification are the tactics of the intelligence sector in the destabilization of the lives of politically-tuned musicians on the fringe of the anti-war movement, as revealed before the Senate Intelligence Committee in a leaked intelligence memorandum submitted for the record on April 26, 1976:

‘Show them as scurrilous and depraved.  Call attention to their habits and living conditions, explore every possible embarrassment.  Send in women and sex, break up marriages. Have members arrested on marijuana charges. Investigate personal conflicts or animosities between them. Send articles to the newspapers showing their depravity. Use narcotics and free sex to entrap. Use misinformation to confuse and disrupt. Get records of their bank accounts. Obtain specimens of handwriting. Provoke target groups into rivalries that may result in death’ [Intelligence Activities and Rights of Americans: Book. II, April 26 1976, Senate Committee with Respect to Intelligence Report]”

Initially, it may appear as though the increasingly political tone of the music from this period of history was “perceived” as a threat to the establishment and that steps were taken to subvert, undermine, weaken and silence such purveyors of this music. This is, however, far from the whole story. Although there are many examples of musicians that threatened the intentions of the global agenda players (some of whom ultimately paid a very high price for their principles), not all so-called “politically active” musicians were what they appeared to be.

Dave McGowan’s incredibly revelatory blog series: “Inside The Laurel Canyon: The Strange but Mostly True Story of Laurel Canyon and the Birth of the Hippie Generation” paints a far more complex story that connects with numerous musicians of the time and is a highly recommended read for anybody who buys into the mainstream, “official” history of popular music. http://www.davesweb.cnchost.com/

This story examines the myriad of military connections to the musicians (and artists and actors) that lived in or frequented the Laurel Canyon region of Los Angeles for many years. The story also ties into the CIA controlled drug scene of the time and, by extension, the countless mind control projects that became something of an obsession to the US military and intelligence agencies.

One phenomenon that intersects these convoluted machinations of the music industry is the so-called “Forever 27 Club”. This strange repeated occurrence (usually dismissed by most as nothing more than coincidence) involves a not-insignificant amount of well-known artists meeting their demise at the age of 27. A curious number of these individuals actually intersect the Laurel Canyon story and also have ties to the military industrial complex.

Perhaps the most infamous members of the “27 Club” were Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. In the aforementioned book by Alex Constantine, he says, “you could say that the CIA and other intelligence agencies may have had a hand in the deaths of Hendrix, Janis Joplin and then Morrison.  Simply for the reason that they were leaders of a generation during the 1960s.”

Jim Morrison was the enigmatic lead singer of The Doors. It does seem something of a twisted irony that Morrison, who was a key figure in the development of the Canyon scene and subsequent Hippie / anti-war movement, was actually the son of US Navy Admiral George Stephen Morrison. Admiral Morrison commanded the US warships that allegedly came under attack while patrolling Vietnam’s Tonkin Gulf in August 1964.

The Gulf of Tonkin incident is a key example in understanding the process through which global events often occur. “Tonkin” is labelled by many alternative researchers as a “false flag” event, instrumental in the ultimate scale of the Vietnam War. In actuality, the incident was an ‘attack’ that never took place at all, all but officially acknowledged as a ‘façade’. The intent may well have been to provoke a defensive response, which could then be cast as an unprovoked attack on U.S ships.

How strange it should be then that the event, in which Admiral Morrison played such a key role, ultimately resulted in a large scale negative social reaction to the war… a reaction that that was partly led and influenced by his son via his music.
Jim Morrison died in July 1971. According to Wikipedia, “Morrison developed a severe alcohol and drug dependency that culminated in his death at the age of 27 in Paris. He is alleged to have died of a heroin overdose, but as no autopsy was performed, the exact cause of his death is still disputed.”

According to Dave McGowan, “Jimi Hendrix, who reportedly briefly occupied the sprawling mansion just north of the Log Cabin (Laurel Canyon) after he moved to LA in 1968, died in London under seriously questionable circumstances on September 18, 1970. Though he rarely spoke of it, Jimi had served a stint in the U.S. Army with the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell. His official records indicate that he was forced into the service by the courts and then released after just one year when he purportedly proved to be a poor soldier. One wonders though why he was assigned to such an elite division if he was indeed such a failure. One also wonders why he wasn’t subjected to disciplinary measures rather than being handed a free pass out of his ostensibly court-ordered service.”

“At the time of Jimi’s death, the first person called by his girlfriend – Monika Danneman, who was the last to see Hendrix alive – was Eric Burden of The Animals. Two years earlier, Burden had relocated to LA and taken over ringmaster duties from Frank Zappa after Zappa had vacated the Log Cabin and moved into a less high-profile Laurel Canyon home. Within a year of Jimi’s death, an underage prostitute named Devon Wilson who had been with Jimi the day before his death, plunged from an eighth-floor window of New York’s Chelsea Hotel. On March 5, 1973, a shadowy character named Michael Jeffery, who had managed both Hendrix and Burden, was killed in a mid-air plane collision. Jeffery was known to openly boast of having organized crime connections and of working for the CIA.”

Janis Joplin was an occasional visitor to the Laurel Canyon scene. Joplin and The Doors shared the same producer, Paul Rothchild, a man with numerous connections to US Army Intelligence. Joplin died a mere sixteen days after Hendrix was found dead.

Another member of “27 Club” was Brian Jones of The Rolling Stones. Jones does have a tenuous connection to Laurel Canyon. The period between 1968 (when Jones parted company with the band) and his controversial death in July 1969 was a time when The Rolling Stones heavily frequented Laurel Canyon. Mick Jagger has extensive Canyon connections, most notably obvious was his involvement in two “Canyon” produced, occult-drenched film projects: Kenneth Anger’s “Lucifer Rising” and Donald Cammell’s “Performance”. Cammell and Anger were key figures in the Canyon scene.

As with the music of The Beatles, Dr John Coleman (in his book, “Conspirators' Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of 300”) has claimed that The Rolling Stones were a creation of The Tavistock Institute, designed to subvert the direction of the then contemporary music scene as part of an engineered “Aquarian Conspiracy”. I’ll leave you to decide the validity of that particularly angle.

The Forever 27 Club contains a myriad of disparate artists from across many decades. A few examples include:

Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson - leader, singer and primary composer of Canned Heat, Arlester "Dyke" Christian - frontman, vocalist and bassist of Dyke & the Blazers, Ron "Pigpen" McKernan - founding member, keyboardist and singer of the Grateful Dead, Dave Alexander - bassist for the Stooges, Pete Ham - keyboardist and guitarist, leader of Badfinger, Jacob Miller - reggae artist and lead singer for Inner Circle, Pete de Freitas - drummer for Echo & the Bunnymen, Richey Edwards (February 1, 1995 Disappeared; officially presumed dead November 23, 2008) - lyricist and guitarist for Manic Street Preachers, Jeremy Michael Ward - The Mars Volta and De Facto sound manipulator.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/27_Club

More recent notable entries include Amy Winehouse and Kurt Cobain. There has been a huge amount of speculation regarding these two individuals. Speculation about Winehouse includes theories on mind control and her knowledge of the inner workings of the industry. Her interview with Jonathon Ross where she claims that certain individuals tried to put her in a “pyramid shaped box” is particularly interesting.

Speculation regarding Cobain’s death will probably continue for as long as anybody remembers him. One curious tale involves the time he spent with the author William S Burroughs, shortly before his death. It is claimed that there are photographs of Cobain inside an “Orgone Box” (similar to the ones created by Wilhelm Reich) which allegedly belonged to Burroughs, although this (the box story, that is) may well be little more than an urban legend. There are images of Cobain waving from inside a outdoor cubicle, but this doesn't really prove anything.

Burroughs did actually have extensive contact with many people involved with the CIA drug distribution during the 1960s, as well as those involved in the CIA’s MKUltra projects. He also had friends amongst the Laurel Canyon set. His novel “Naked Lunch” is claimed to be a thinly veiled account of his alleged time spent on the CIA’s payroll. Make of this what you will!

Some of the stranger aspects of these stories (particularly the numerous deaths and bizarre practices of the Laurel Canyon scene) possibly indicate an occult or ritualistic undercurrent. Such practices are actually nothing new in music. Christopher Knowles book “The Secret History of Rock ‘n’ Roll” (which examines the history of music and worship) begins with a telling quote from The Natya Shastra: “dancing and music are more pleasing to the gods than rites and prayers.”

It seems altogether plausible that everything we have come to recognise about music today, has its roots in every form of ancient worship – whether it be the Neolithic, ancient mystery teachings, Dionysian, Bacchanalia, or any other practice. The question is: do any of these beliefs factor into the relatively contemporary music scene? The “Forever 27 Club” phenomenon may hold some clues to answering this question. It may even be possible that there is a ritualistic connection to the actual number 27.

Certainly in astrological terms, the number 27 (although most would argue that it is actually 29) may suggest the phenomenon of “Saturn’s Return”. The effect of the Saturn return, or any of the heavy planets, is said by many to indicate an major transitional period, possibly even a weeding out of what is unnecessary ready for the next portion of life. Even if 29 years is the more accurate figure at work, it may be that there is an “approaching effect” at 27. However, this is not a subject I’m really versed in to any great degree (I had to try and understand what little I could from a more astrologically savvy friend!)

The point here is the connection to Saturn and transitions. Firstly, is it possible that some of this derives from the practice of Saturn worship… a belief system that many researchers believe has darker tones, even connections to the global elite and secret society practices? In relation to the music industry, it might also explain why we often see so much Saturn imagery connected to contemporary pop artists and their music videos.

As for the transitional aspect, I have looked back through the history of popular musicians and singers (that didn’t die between the age of 27 and 29) to see if there are significant events in their personal or professional lives at that age. What I found actually surprised me. Here are just a few arbitrary examples of major transitions that I came across.

Mama Cass, singer with The Mamas and the Papas, recorded “Dream a Little Dream of Me” from her solo album of the same name in 1968 and subsequently embarked on a solo singing career. She was aged 27.

In 1973, David Bowie toured and gave press conferences as “Ziggy Stardust” before a dramatic and abrupt on-stage "retirement" at London's Hammersmith Odeon on 3 July 1973. Bowie effectively killed off his most successful personae live on stage. Shortly after his 27th birthday in early 1974, He moved to the United States and launched his soul, funk, “Thin White Duke” personae, leaving his glam rock image behind forever.

In 1985, Madonna became an overnight success with the release of “Crazy for You”, “Material Girl” and “Like a Virgin”. She even appeared in her first movie roles. She embarked on her first concert tour in North America, The Virgin Tour, with the Beastie Boys as her opening act. Madonna commented: "That whole tour was crazy, because I went from playing CBGB and the Mudd Club to playing sporting arenas.” She was aged 27. Madonna also started dating actor Sean Penn and married him on her 27th birthday.

Kate Bush became a huge globally selling artist following the release of “Hounds of Love” in 1985. Thereafter, she built her own private studio near her home, where she could work at her own pace. She practically retired from the public limelight, shunning the music industry’s main publicity routes. She was aged 27.
 

The Beatles effectively ceased functioning as a coherent band in 1968. John Lennon began writing and recording experimental material with Yoko Ono as well as his own solo material. He was aged 27.

Of course, these are just a couple of examples. I encourage you to do a random Google of your own. You will be surprised how often the age of 27 marks a major changing point or shift. It also seems to be the case for many movie actors!

So what can we make of all this? My gut (and a fair amount of evidence) tells me that there is more to the music industry than we may ever actually get our heads around. Is it possible that all these factors are just a great bundle of interconnecting paths and coincidences?  It could be that what we are often witnessing is little more than the wild lifestyles of over indulgent individuals, whose fame has led them out of control, with all the rest of the high strangeness simply misunderstood coincidences. I do actually believe in coincidences… at least in small to moderate numbers!

However, I find it difficult to summarise the whole subject in such a naïve manner. I have often extolled my position on continually repeated coincidences and used the flipping coin analogy to illustrate my point. On this occasion (and because I’ve been discussing the subject of music) it seems fitting that I leave you with a few lines from a little ditty from Monty Python:

“Here comes another one. Here it comes again. Here comes another one… when will it ever end!?”

Peace my friends!

London 2012 - Part 4: "Shadows and Symbols"

 There’s no escaping the fact that the entire concept of “The Olympics” is one of ritual and symbolism. The Games themselves were realised as a result of mass worship of deified figures – most notably (but not exclusively), in this case, the gods of Mount Olympus. For many they were a ceremony of sacrifice and ritual. Given what we know of the ruling elite’s preoccupation with belief systems and the potential power of the inherent symbolism, it’s hardly surprising that the return of The Games (at the tail end of the nineteenth century) was steered by those occupying the upper echelons of power and influence - individuals with freemasonic and ritualistic associations.

 We still see these connections today, in the form of the torch lighting ceremony (the 2012 torch itself is a three sided design made to represent a "trinity" of olympic ideals), the presentation of the three precious metal-based, medals, and numerous other aspects. Many have highlighted the symbolic nature of the London Olympic site, the surrounding road names (such as Temple Mill Lane, Great Eastern Road, Church Road, Carpenter Road, etc.), the 13 pyramid shaped flood light (capped with 9 rows of bulbs), and checkerboard (black and white) seating. However these merely scratch the surface of the evidence.

Astana Pyramid

 The stadium itself was one of several designs and locations considered. One of the hot favourites, for a while, was Norman Foster’s 2007 Wembley Stadium. Foster has had some interesting design associations during his career, including the Astana “Pyramid of Peace and Reconciliation” in Kazakhstan. The inclusion of Anish Kapur’s “ArcelorMittal Orbit” Tower (which sits aside the London Olympic Stadium) has created much speculation. The spiral design has been compared to a human DNA helix and the like. Kapur’s designs are always a little odd. He has used the medium of glass and mirrors on many occasions and his reflective hourglass design - “Turning the World Upside Down” (Israel Museum, 2010), is amongst his most eyebrow raising. It has been claimed that Kapur’s inspiration for the Orbital Tower was The Tower of Babel… an interesting choice if true.

 There are slightly more subtle possibilities surrounding the stadium though. The more eagle-eyed folk out there have noticed an unusual anomaly within the grounds. To one side is a footpath area which some have claimed is similar to the Egyptian “eye of Horus” motif. I suppose if you squint a bit, then there is a resemblance. In 2007, Lord Mayor of London (John Stuttard) unveiled a sculpture named the "Spirit of Zion" statue for 2012 Olympics - 9 metre tall spider which is one of 6 such sculptures by artist Louise Bourgeois. We also had the “Giant Toadstools” which many alternative researchers have connected with the idea of the underworld, which also ties into the Egyptian/Horus mythology. The “underworld” aspects are an area of study that I will address in due course. Of course, London is full of esoteric landmarks such as the eye at Canary Wharf (and the building itself) and, most recently, The Shard – opened just in time for The Games.

 The stadium location has also uncovered a wealth of factors that may tie into a larger symbolic tapestry. Earlier this year, Samuel William posted a YouTube video as part of his “Truth You Can Wake Up To” series. I must stress here that there are several aspects of his research that I absolutely don’t align myself with (especially his 9/11 – Thermite perspectives), however this one was quite revealing.

 He discussed the placement (in Trafalgar Square) of a 30 foot diameter replica of the sun, placed there for one day only - 23rd January 2012. He took the diameter of this replica and scaled down the entire solar system to match the sun to the size of it. The equivalent Earth orbit was 0.6 miles. William took this distance out from the replica of the sun on a bearding of 33 degrees – freemasonic significance, obviously. The point at which the earth would be was actually the Grand Lodge Masonic Hall on Great Queen Street (specifically the apex of the set square shape that forms the corner of the building - the building is shaped like a compass and set square). He also took the bearing of 66 degrees and plotted the relative position of Saturn on this scale. What did it match up with?  The location of the Olympic Stadium site! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnlVbwwMpOY&feature=plcp

 Saturn was once worshipped as a god because it was believed to be a star rather than a planet. The Saturn aspect is interesting because of the association with the concept of “Time”. It is an area of esoteric research that I wish I understood much more, but I take an interest in never the less!  The “Saturn cult” (sometimes called “The Satan Cult”) is only a stone’s throw away from the association with measurement and manipulation of “time”. There are peculiar “Black Cubes” and monoliths which have popped up around the world and can often be traced to the “Saturn” concept.  Many have looked into this symbolism and how prevalent it appears to be in our culture… especially “pop culture”.

 In researching a little more of the subject, I found apparent examples in films such as Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, but the most interesting takes me back to a bizarre story from my childhood. I remember being very ill (probably the worst I had been in my pre-teen years) in 1987 – I was twelve in case you want to work out my age! I was apparently suffering from food poisoning. Although I don’t have a very good recollection of anything that occurred for a day or so, I do remember watching a French animated sci-fi film called “Les Maîtres du Temps” (Masters of Time) by Rene Laloux. For years, I didn’t actually realised it was a film (because I genuinely believed it was a product of my delirious physical and mental state – as a result of the food poisoning!) and was shocked when I found it on the web years later! http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL21E9B3609C139000&feature=plcp

 The story is bizarre, full of weird imagery and concepts. In my mind I had an image from the end of film (delirious dream state!) of a black cube encircled by glowing (Saturn-like) rings. It is strange how wrong I had actually got this final image when watching the film more recently. The film ends with a sphere encased by a glowing cube. What did I tap into when I was Ill?!! In any case, Rene Laloux courted the esoteric for much of his life. He worked in advertising and even had a job in a psychiatric institution where he began experimenting in animation with the interns! I’ve clearly let this memory divert me momentarily, so it is perhaps best that I get back on track…

 The point I’m highlighting is the inclusion of the “time” concept in the film. London is often referred to in esoteric circles as “The Temple of Time”, probably because of the intricate association with GMT and the measuring system for the world’s financial clocks. I have often wondered about the alternate symbolism of the Olympic Logos in relation to the “Saturn” concept. The rings may be akin to clock faces (an hour is separated into four segments – quarter past, half past, etc.) and I have recently pondered the significance of the four coloured rings (and one black). Some researchers say that the four colours are aspects of nature, others the points of a compass.

 Whatever they mean, they are almost certainly points of reference – in much the same way that “measuring time” is. It is curious that the “black” ring is the only ring, in the logo, than intersects more than one other - past and future, maybe? The four rings almost “revolve” around the central black ring. The “Zion” logo also does the same, with four numbers/letters rotating around a small square (cube). Is this telling us something about the belief systems of those that control the Olympic Games? Is it possible that the Olympics represent the transitions (passages) through time, perhaps from one age to another…? Or even the marking of time? Temporal transitions are always marked by ritual ceremony – birthdays, the “new year”, religious holidays, etc.

 We are possibly seeing more clues in the abundance of time “related” objects in London for The Games. The Olympic Clock infamously stopped on “the Ides of March” (315) and the inclusion of the world’s largest “harmonically tuned” bell during the games is particularly noteworthy. For starters, the organisers want to get everybody ringing bells “as loudly and quickly” as possible on the day of the opening ceremony – “marking time” as it were. The “conjured” piece of music created by the bells will be called “Work No. 1197” (more significant number arrangements) and will last for three minutes. Danny Boyle has called it “a wonderful way to wake up the nation” … I bet he does!

Black Magick Occultist Aleister Crowley

 The Bell, weighing 23-tonnes (originally going to be 27…), just happens to be inscribed with a line from Shakespeare’s The Tempest: “Be not afeard, the isle is full of noises“. “Tempest” is also associated with “Tempus” as in “Time”. It should be remembered that bells are often rung as part of witchcraft incantations and occult magick rituals. Such rituals usually involve ringing the bell 9 times. Aleister Crowley once proclaimed that the bell was a “weapon” of occult magick. The motto for the bell ringing Olympic ritual is "Any bell, Anyone, Anywhere" (3 aspects). I should also mention that there are some fascinating ideas being discussed about The Bell on the net. One of note is the connection to the old rhyme “Oranges and Lemons”, but I will leave you to research that one yourself!

 Before I move on, I just want to quote researcher Ellis C Taylor: “Olympic Games are a mass rites to a solar deity. Beginning with their lavish opening ceremonies, they are conducted with precise timing. Time is at the essence of every one of them... Keeping to precise numerological schedules and patterns ensures that those that order them make the very most of natural harmonics elevating the chance of their success in their ambitions and gaining grand favour from the solar despot they worship.” http://www.ellisctaylor.com/

 The most relevant thing to remember here is that “time” is nothing more than an illusion. It imprisons and sacrifices us simultaneously. To coin a phrase: “Time is the fire in which we burn…” With time measured in mathematics and numbers, I would be remiss if I didn’t discuss some aspects of the numerological significances in Olympic symbolism. I will leave you to draw your own conclusion as to some of the possible meanings. The occurrences are “out there”, never the less.

 The Games begin on 27/7/2012, with the opening ceremony commencing at 8:12pm (20:12). As mentioned before, we have a 23 tonnes bell. The budget for the opening ceremony is £27 million. The announcement of London as host of The Games in 2005 (7 years to go…) was the day before 7/7. There will be 900 local pupils taking part in the opening Olympic ceremony. 27th of July (2+7) = 9. Volunteers up to the age of (specifically) 90 were to be considered. The overall budget for the ceremonies was claimed to be £81 million (8+1=9). The bell ringing composition - Work No 1197 is 1+1+9+7=18… 1+8=9… and some say 18 = 666 (hidden). Now I am far from an expert in such matters, but I believe there is some significance to these reoccurrences.

 We should also consider that these will be the 30th Olympic Games (XXX – 3 kisses, porn connotations, take your pick!) and the third Games held in London (a masonic trinity of games perhaps?). Several researchers have noted that the first two of these took place in close proximity to the first and second Worlds Wars, with the assumption being that the third will be no difference. Personally I believe that this kind of speculation is reckless and pointless. It is just another kind of fear mongering. I understand the reasoning behind this, but we really should wait (and hope) for a positive outcome – rather than spreading ideas of doom and destruction.

In the next part I will look at the imminent ceremonies of The London Games, before I address my own theories on what may occur.
