David noted there were 59 horizontal lines in the rectangular frame and 33 lines of spiraled ASCII codes along the bisected disc which together pointed to 1947 and 19.47 because: 59 x 33 = 1947, and 33% of 59 = 19.47!

He also found pi (= 3.14159...) deeply embedded in the puzzle. The glyph's bisected circle was a hint since pi is a mathematical constant representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. Going beyond this, David discovered that the Roswell crash site itself was a pi-encoded geographical position, as shown in these illustrations:

It's also an important point that the Roswell UFO crash came on/around July 4, Independence Day. We have the 1996 alien movie involving Roswell titled 'Independence Day'. The holiday's most prominent symbol is the Statue of Liberty which is also a memorable symbol used in the film. The same director who did 'ID4' is behind The Day After Tomorrow released earlier this year, reiterating the Lady Liberty/torch connection - see graphics below - and the weather/hurricane connection... (after all ,the film is all about the weather going crazy).

(There is also a 1949 book called 'Sixth Column' published also under the name 'The Day After Tomorrow'. The story involves electro-gravitic 'ultra technology'!)

Lady Liberty is of course the world's most famous torch-bearer - a big part of the 'super torch ritual' anchored by the 'light-bearer' star Venus. Tellingly, this year's 'Lady Liberty day' (i.e. Independence Day) was specifically designed to interact with the Athens Games, the climax of the torch ritual, in that:

• On July 4 (the 'torch' day), Greece's national soccer team won the European Championship in a historic upset.

• The Tour de France (another major sporting event) began on July 4. (The Statue of Liberty was a gift from France.) As per tradition the race ended in Paris, the city of Isis-Venus ('Par-Isis'). Paris as a character in Greek mythology is analogous to a torch.

• On July 4 the cornerstone of 'Freedom Tower' was laid at Ground Zero, the site of the WTC towers. 1) The new tower is designed to reflect the basic shape of the Statue of Liberty. 2) A 'tower' is representative of Mary Magdalene (= Isis-Venus), an alter ego of Lady Liberty, as 'Magdalene' ('Magdala') denotes 'tower'. 3) The name 'Tour de France' can mean 'Tower of France', practically synonymous with 'Freedom Tower'. 4) The Pentagon, another structure attacked on 9/11, signifies Sirius-Venus-Lady Liberty (traditionally symbolized by a pentagram). 5) 2001 was 225 years after the birth of the United States (1776), '225' being the orbital period (in earth days) of Venus around the Sun and matching the opening day of the Athens Games (225 days after 1/1/04).

Common to both Athens and Paris is the notion of the prime meridian (chief longitudinal line). Paris has the historically and Gnostically important Zero Meridian/'Rose Line', and the Mars rover Opportunity carrying the 'Athena' payload landed in Meridiani Planum ('Meridian Plane') near the Martian Meridian in January 2004. This becomes important combined with the following...

Just a month after its rare union with the Sun, Venus crossed the Galactic Meridian (i.e. longitude 0°/180°) on Independence Day and at the hyperdimensional latitude of -19.5°!

The crossing occurred just as Venus was making a U-turn, changing its (apparent) direction from retrograde to direct. This was indeed yet another manifestation of the 'Tour/Tower de France' theme since 'tower', as well as 'tour', etymologically derives from a root word denoting 'spinning' or 'turning'! It also relates back to the twister theme.

Apparent path of Venus as it crossed Galactic Meridian
near Aldebaran (meridian not shown).

All together, Independence Day 2004 featured no less than four 'Tour de France' manifestations: 1) start of the Tour de France race, 2) Freedom Tower's cornerstone laid, 3) Statue of Liberty, a form of Venus and a gift from France, highlighted by the holiday celebrations, and 4) Venus making a 'hyperdimensional turn' at the Galactic Meridian. Another 'Tour de France' manifestation worth noting is the Eiffel Tower in Paris, where the Tour race traditionally ends (Champs Elysees). It is the 'tower' of France, if not of the entire world, standing in the Champ de Mars, or 'Field of Mars', hence underscoring the Martian Meridian association.

Another key point here is the fact that the Meridian crossing was closely marked by the position of Aldebaran, a bright star in Taurus known also as... the 'Torch-Bearer'! It's also called 'Bull's or God's Eye', conjuring up the (Golden) 'Eye' theme again.

As already noted, GoldenEye refers to a 'Star Wars'-type satellite weapon relatable to Reagan whose recent death event coincided with the Transit of Venus and concluded on June 11 with the 'passing of the torch' ritual involving Schwarzenegger. Well, it just happens that Venus was crossing the Galactic Meridian on that very day too! I wrote elsewhere:

...the recent Transit of Venus... coincided with the week-long funerary proceedings following Ronald Reagan's passing. The transit took place on June 8 at the edge of the Milky Way and very close to the Galactic Meridian (i.e. longitude 0°/180°).

Few days later on June 11 Venus actually crossed the Meridian, coinciding with the funeral/burying of Reagan down on earth which also simultaneously signaled the 'rise of Schwarzenegger'.

Back to the July 4 crossing, I noticed that it took place at a V-shaped region of Taurus known as the Hyades. As pointed out by Jane B. Sellers and later by Robert Bauval (The Orion Mystery, pp.147ff), it was associated with the Egyptian god Seth (or Set), the embodiment of evil/chaos and Horus' archenemy. In their epic battle, Horus lost his left eye and Seth his testicles.

In this context the left eye of the Crabwood alien was perhaps an allusion to Seth. Indeed, Seth was considered a 'foreigner' or 'alien', and the name Seth - also spelt 'Set' - brings to mind SETI, Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence...

The fact that only the right side of the face was highlighted alludes to the double-face model of the Face on Mars in which the right side represents the head of the beast (leonine). Now check out the following, written by me back on October 24, '03:

In the first Endgame article, I discussed what appeared to be a 'leak' by an 'insider' posted on the former message board of Richard Hoagland's Enterprise website. [...] The post by 'KBS' included only a series of numbers that was hyperlinked to a webpage displaying the 2002 'alien disk' crop glyph. Soon another poster there (perhaps the same 'insider')... found the following encoded message: 'HaPPy AnNiVerSaRy, HoAglAnd'.

...The key: the message was posted on August 27 ('02) . And with the mention of 'anniversary', meaning 'returning with the year at a stated time', it became clear... that it was pointing ahead to the August 27 of the following year, 2003 - the exact date of [Mars' historic close approach to Earth]! Since Hoagland is [the famous 'Mars/Cydonia guy'], there was no question that this was the intended message.

...The alien crop glyph, to which the coded message was hyperlinked, was created on Aug. 14 (= Aug. 27 Gregorian); and the message itself was posted on Aug. 27 (= Aug. 14 Julian) and pointed ahead to the Aug. 27 of 2003. [...]

...On [or very near] the predicted 'Hoagland anniversary' day (8/27/03), Richard Hoagland [published] his new paper on his website [featuring] a new picture of the 'Face on Mars' taken by the Odyssey spacecraft...

Hoagland begins the paper by stating:

This startling new image of the well-known "Face on Mars" (above [right]) may ultimately be regarded as one of the most important photographs of the entire Space Program. For, after almost 30 years of acrid controversy and debate, a "whole new side" to this perplexing Martian mystery - and the profound social and scientific questions it continues to present - has now literally dawned...

He goes on to discuss how the lighting of the rising sun reflected on the eastern side of the 'Face' reveals a new mystery, an inexplicable amount of reflectivity. The paper is all about the brightly lit right half of the Face.

This 'beast' revelation closely coincided with the 'rise of Schwarzenegger' whose political ascension began on August 6 ('03). His designated role in the 'super torch ritual' is an 'Antichrist' or... 'Beast' which is symbolically coherent. But Arnie is also a form of Horus, contradicting his Seth/Beast connection. It would still make coherent sense, however, if - as likely - the 'rise of the Terminator' signifies the 'rise of a false Horus', i.e. Seth.

At any rate, it cannot be missed that the 'light bearer' star (Venus) illuminating the Hyades (= Seth) on the torch/light day (July 4, '04) was a reproduction of sunlight illuminating the beast side of the Face. A direct comparison (using the glyph) below reveals an intriguing resemblance.

Even the glyph's angle relative to the grooves in the field corresponds to the angle made by the Galactic (shown) and Ecliptic (not shown but basically horizontal) grid systems.

Finally, interactions between Seth and Horus (such as their great battle) can be epitomized by the pictorial theme showing them in the 'act of churning/drilling' which, combined with Seth being the god of wind and storm, brings back the twister theme.

The act of churning had another version in which the Nile twin gods do the 'drilling' instead of Seth and Horus. The interchangeability is also evident in the close link found between the Horus-Seth battle and the 'Winding Waterway', an Egyptian term for the Milky Way and its earthly counterpart the Nile. From Pyramid Texts 594-6:

Horus has cried out because of his Eye, Seth has cried out because of his testicles, and there leaps up the Eye of Horus, who had fallen on yonder side of the Winding Waterway, so that it may protect itself from Seth. Thoth saw it on yonder side of the Winding Waterway when the Eye of Horus leapt up on yonder side of the Winding Waterway and fell on Thoth's wing on yonder side of the Winding Waterway. O you gods who cross over on the wing of Thoth to yonder side of the Winding Waterway, to the eastern side of the sky, in order to dispute with Seth about this Eye of Horus: I will cross with you upon the wing of Thoth to yonder side of the Winding Waterway, to the eastern side of the sky, and I will dispute with Seth about this Eye of Horus. [emphasis added]

In my book The Time Rivers I argue that the 'Winding Waterway' is a more specific reference to the Nile's huge, anomalous bend in Sudan. The Nile being an unusually straight river flowing directly northward - the first hint that it's an intelligently designed river - the big bend, where the water suddenly turns around and flows southward, is very notable. It is the only section of the Nile that clearly 'winds' - hence a 'Winding Waterway'. And here '19.5' emerges again: the bend's northern peak precisely pinpoints the tetrahedral latitude of 19.5 (or 19.47) degrees north!

The Nile bend even pinpoints longitude 33.0 degrees east... '33' being the other important hyperdimensional, as well as ritualistic/Masonic, number. (The Nile is a 'hyperdimensional river'.) You may recall that the the alien glyph's disk contained exactly 33 lines... The frame contained 59 lines; 33% of 59 is - as David Flynn pointed out - exactly 19.47...

The Time River Theory is not yet widely known - I call it the 'Nile denial'. But it is a major piece of the grand cosmic 'puzzle'. It's an 'alien message' so big and unexpected that it had been overlooked all this time.

While this article puts emphasis more on the Nazi/ultra-tech aspect of the 'alien message', the involvement of Cydonia, the Nile, and such make it plain that we are ultimately dealing with a cosmic design that is truly 'out of this world'. These are quiet whispers of a higher intelligence...

The energy of the tetrahedron exists in the nucleus of every atom, every planet, and every star; the tetrahedron is the base building block shape of the physical universe.

Understanding of the mathematics of the tetrahedron can allow one to harness energy from other spatial dimensions (which can be mastered) to manifest behavior such as defying gravity and other laws of physics.

If one can harness the energy of the tetrahedron, they may access unlimited energy, and technology. To understand this secret is to possess the science of flying saucers and the power of them.

33° is code for 19.47° –the Sin of 19.47 is 0.3333, and the tetrahedron is scientifically denoted as 3,3.

The American spacecraft Mars Pathfinder (MESUR Pathfinder) was a tetrahedron, and it landed on Mars at 19.33° N latitude, 33.22° W longitude, arriving on July 4, 1997.

Similarly, purposely, the pyramids of the underwater city of Yonaguni-Jima in Japan are at 19.47° latitude.

Star of Solomon

The 6-pointed Star of Solomon in two dimensions, represent a three dimensional object, the dual tetrahedrons. That is an object which maps the points of interface of a higher dimensional energy field into the three dimensional realm, having an inverted tetrahedron, with collocated centers, one flipped vertically and rotated 180 degrees from the other, we see that it is actually an eight pointed star, with two of the points hidden behind the opaque 3d solid. Yeah, so what? Well, it turns out, that planets, e.g. Ter-Ra, embody this shape... If you inscribe the dual tetrahedron inside a sphere, you get one point each at the north and south pole, plus three in the northern hemisphere at 19.47 degrees above the equator, and spaced between these but at 19.47 degrees below the equator, three other points. Now, map this onto earth. Compare with NASA photos of other planets in our solar system. Even the Sun has tendencies to have major storms at the point locations. Other planets evidence permanent storms centered around these points.

Big Island, Hawaii, is the volcano evidencing the "hot spot" below the floor of the ocean, which represents one of these tetrahedral vertices. The Pacific Tectonic plate slides north east over the hot spot vertex, magma keeps breaking through the tectonic plate building volcanic mountains some 6 miles high off the ocean floor to barely break water surface and make an "island". Go ahead, map the other 5 tropical vertices. Now, compare that with a map of places controlled by the United States of America, and you will see that somebody, with a very high security clearance, already figured out the importance of these points in the earth energy grid, and that it was important, if you were an evil government intent on dominating the planet and controlling other humans, to take control of as many points as possible in order to take control of the earth energy grid.

It turns out that the earth electromagnetic energy grid, (and its higher dimensional correspondences) are the very fields/grids which UFO's travel upon, if they use field propulsion "engines". The saucer shaped craft are field propulsion craft. Bruce Cathie, a pilot, began investigating UFO sightings and discovered that their appearances and paths traveled predominantly along specific grid lines, and he began to map the earth energy grid. The energy grid affects our moods and thoughts. Controlling and /or modulating the energy grid allows weather modification, thought control, etc.

The U.S. has Hawai`i. The U.S. has the H.A.A.R.P. project near the north pole. The U.S. has the only permanent scientific research station in Antarctica. The U.S., violating all principles of the U.S. Constitution and international law, has waged wars on foreign soil to gain control of the other vertices. The Japan Triangle has even more disappearance activity than the Bermuda triangle, and the U.S. gained control of that point by conquering Japan in W.W.II. The U.S. has a permanent secret installation at Alice Springs, Australia... That leaves only two vertices unaccounted for. I better reconsult my map... One in Algeria. One in Iwo Jima. Bermuda is a halfway point, corresponding to a second set of two tetrahedrons rotated halfway between the other major points. One at Easter Island. One in South Africa. One in the Loyalty Islands. Yup. I don't know who controls the Loyalty Islands, but the U.S. and its partner the U.K. control at least 7 of the 8 vertices of the dual tetrahedron of earth, and many of the secondary points on the grid at the half-way points. Maybe it's just not so obvious about the 8th vertex.

Now, that's playing with the Star of Solomon in earth grid terms, but it also relates to the MerKaBah vehicle of Ascension, the energy field/grid we generate around us (aura + light body) through meditation. There are special properties of sacred geometry in all of the male Platonic solids (equal angles equal sides) and in the curved feminine torus and sphere. If you take an opaque tube torus and put each end of it into a vertex of a clear tetrahedron, and arrange it just right, then each of the Hebrew fire letters may be generated as a two dimensional shadow of the three dimensional object. Sacred geometry is everywhere.

Geometry of Alphabets

Over thirty years of research by the Meru Foundation has been directed toward understanding the origin and nature of the Hebrew alphabet, as well as the mathematical structure underlying the sequence of letters in the Hebrew text of Genesis; in effect the geometry of the Hebrew alphabet.

In this process, Stan Tenen and others have discovered “an extraordinary and unexpected geometric metaphor in the letter-sequence of the Hebrew text of Genesis that underlies and is held in common by the spiritual traditions of the ancient world.  This metaphor models embryonic growth and self-organization.  It applies to all whole systems, including those as seemingly diverse as meditational practices and the mathematics fundamental to physics and cosmology...  Meru Project findings demonstrate that the relationship between physical theory and Consciousness, expressed in explicit geometric metaphor, was understood and developed several thousand years ago.”

That says a very great deal!  In essence, the book of Genesis -- in the original Hebrew -- is geometrically structured.  The very first verse of Genesis, for example, is shown to form a dodecahedron <http://www.meru.org/Lettermaps/GenesisWords.html>, which is then interpreted as a 13-petaled Rose, a Shoshon Flower, or a Menorah of 6 flames.  The over all effect is strangely reminiscent of a six-sided Celtic drawing of spirals.  <http://www.meru.org/Lettermaps/BreshitHierarchy.html> also shows the geometry of an unfurling vortex funnel, called “The Internal Structure of B’Reshit”.  Essential reading in this regard is an article taken from the website, entitled, “The God of Abraham: A Mathematician’s View” [1], which introduces and explores the philosophical implications of the Meru Foundation research.  Astounding material!

On an adjacent webpage, <http://www.meru.org/Posters/trsknotrngsphere.html> a so-called 3,10 Torus Knot in a standard Ring form is shown evolving into a dimpled-sphere torus, and then into a tetrahelix (looking a bit like a DNA helix), and then ultimately mimicking a human hand.  In fact...

An idealized model human hand when viewed from different angles

can be shown to form all of the letters of the Hebrew alphabet --

as well as the ancient Greek and Arabic alphabets!  

Effectively each hand gesture displays a different view of the model hand (referred to as the “First Hand”), with these different views including immediately identifiable outlines of the Hebrew letters. Stan Tenen has stated <http://www.arthuryoung.com> that, “The Hebrew letters are said to connect our inner wisdom with our outer knowledge of the world.  We can easily see our hands, and what our hands hold, in our mind’s eye.  So our hands bring the external physical world into our personal inner world.  They are also our primary instrument for expressing our personal conscious will in the consensus physical reality.  Each pointing of our hands projects a quantum of our Consciousness.

“Because Arthur Young’s toroidal models of process are so elegant and topologically minimal, they are truly universal.  This means that it should be no surprise that the model human hand designed by the Meru Foundation, whose two-dimensional outlines look like the Hebrew letters, is actually a clearly defined section of a torus!  Likewise, although it might otherwise appear extraordinary, it should also be no surprise to learn that the most compact self-referential geometric form that the letters of the first verse of the Hebrew text of Genesis can take, is also a torus.  In fact, this is where the alphabet generating human hand was found.”  [emphasis added]

The First Hand is shown at <http://www.meru.org/Posters/handappl.html> and as a result in “squaring the circle” at <http://www.meru.org/3220lecture/stpresrl.html>.  The latter shows that this ancient geometrical puzzlement may have had another reasons for being.  Inasmuch as p, the ratio of the circumference to the diameter of a circle, is one of the Transcendental Numbers, and the Hebrew, Greek, and Arabic alphabets are held to be sacred, perhaps the model hand is in itself transcendental.

Tenen goes on to show a figure of a tangent line to a circular ring, which can be shown to form the model hand.  He goes on to say, “We express our will to others by both gestures and words.  When we wear this transcendental hand and make meaningful gestures, we see outlines of the model hand that match both the shapes and the meanings of the names of the Hebrew, Greek, and Arabic letters.”

The meanings as well as the shapes!  Delightfully amazing!  [This also suggests why hand movements in spiritually based rituals may be so important.  It’s as if we’re speaking an unknown sign language -- or at least unknown to many of the ritual followers.]

[4/1/05] One reader's answer to the above questions is that the Kudu horm was used by ancient Hebrews as a ceremonial musical instrument, called the Shofar. It was used to announce the Jubilee Year, going to battle, and other important events. While a ram's horn was also used, and the Ibex, the Kudu horn seemed to be the most ideal and by far the most impressive. For a good photo of a Kudu with horn, see Davar Emet.

The concept of an antelope horn providing a non-resistance -- even a negative resistance -- to the flow of water (or whatever), and this spiraling geometrical shape being responsible for the transcendental Hebrew, Greek, and Arabic alphabets may appear a bit outrageous.  But one curious aspect is the measurement of the cross-sectional angles between the curls of the horn.  This yields approximately 19.5^o -- one of the more notable angles in Hyperdimensional Physics.  This angle corresponds roughly to the 19.47^o of latitude where the points of an inscribed tetrahedron in a sphere touch the sphere’s surface (in addition to the pole).  Planetary examples of the 19.5^o latitude include the Red Spot of Jupiter, and the Blue Spot of Neptune, as well as the volcanoes Olympus Mons on Mars, Mauna Loa on Earth, and Mount Popocatepetl in central Mexico.  These locations are generally construed as extremely high energy sources.

When the Meru Foundation’s “First Hand” is inscribed in a tetrahedron (referred to as “The Light in the Meeting Tent” <http://www.meru.org/GodofAbe/onegdpix.html> [shown on page 8], the cross-sectional angle of the spiral is again approximately 19.5^o!  Is the “unfurling vortex funnel, called ‘The Internal Structure of B’Reshit’,” just another form of non-resistant energy flow -- or another form of Superconductivity?

Part Three

Freemasonry and the Tetrahedron

The iconography of Freemasonry certainly includes the two dimensional equivalent of a tetrahedron circumscribed within a sphere, namely an equilateral triangle circumscribed within a circle as shown in the Masonic banner below. However, this secret society never seems explicitly to portray tetrahedrons circumscribed by spheres even though there are very strong hints that the tetrahedron is important to the Scottish Rite. This section sets out to look at some of the evidence that lurking in the shadows behind the equilateral triangles and hexagrams of Freemasonry lies the circumscribed tetrahedron.

(The artists making the most spectacular crop art have always seemed well versed in occult diagrams and complicated geometry. One researcher claims that they have even invented a few new geometry theorems - see µµµ).

ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

Cydonia Quest is not very familiar with the confusing centuries old body of occult study known as the Cabbala / Kabbala / Qabbala which has held a fascination for Freemasonry since its earliest origins, (see µµµ). An internet trawl indicated that Kabbalists have a deep interest in the geometry of the platonic solids, including the tetrahedron. (For an example see µµµ &µµµ).

In the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry the hexagram turns up with increasing frequency in the jewels that accompany each degree as the highest degrees are reached. In the 18th (Royal Arch) degree a mystical geometry lecture is given on the meaning of the jewel. One side of this jewel is shown in the illustration below and the lecture can be read at the end of this "stargate" µµµ. It is interesting that this lecture equates figure 3 - which is an unfolded tetrahedron - with the triple Tau which symbolises God. The lecture describes the hexagram as the "Seal of Solomon" and by combining it with the value of the triple Tau, in a difficult to follow numbers game, connects it to all the regular Platonic solids. Perhaps the coded message here is that the "Seal of Solomon" itself represents a three dimensional object, namely the "star tetrahedron", (µµµ). The hexagram in the jewel is after all circumscribed by a circle and is not shown as the creation of joining the corners of a hexagon.

C

ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

The diagram below looks in more detail at a double (star) tetrahedron circumscribed within a spinning sphere with the polar axis marked in red. It can be seen that from a side view (the left hand illustration) the hexagram shape produced is not perfect. This is because from this perspective both the component tetrahedrons are being viewed as pyramids. This means that the facets are sloping away from us to create the pyramid shape with the result that the height of the pyramid will be less than the length of the base (assuming that the three angles in each facet are kept at 60 degrees). This is why when an apex of a circumscribed tetrahedron is attached to one of the poles of a sphere, the other three apexes touch the surface at 19.47 degrees latitude - and not the 30 degrees latitude that we would expect from an equilateral triangle circumscribed by a circle.

However, seen from above the polar axis (the right hand illustration) our double (star) tetrahedron takes on the appearance of a perfect hexagram. It can also be noted that from this perspective foreshortening effects create twelve internal 30 degree angles showing that this is indeed a tetrahedral number as discussed in Part Two.

C

ccccccccccccc

C

As noted in Part Two many geometry web pages assume that the two dimensional hexagram is taken from the three dimensional star tetrahedron derived from the geometry of the Platonic solids. In fact even a hexagon can produce a diagram of interlocking tetrahedrons. The familiar hexagram only makes half the possible connections between the corners of a hexagon. If all the connections are made then a line diagram of two tetrahedrons is made as seen in the illustration below.

C

cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

C

The tetrahedral geometry theme in the degrees of the Scottish Rite would seem to take on a more focused form when we reach the final 33rd degree. The jewel for this degree is shown below. It has not been possible to discover whether there is a geometry lecture accompanying this jewel as is the case with the 18th degree. Of particular interest is that the 33 degree jewel has a frame of three overlapping equilateral triangles in the form of a nine pointed star or nonagram. This form of the nonagram is also used outside Freemasonry by other followers of things esoteric and is the emblem for the Baha'i religion which was founded by a 19th century Iranian mystic. As mentioned in Part Two some esotericists state that the form of the nonagram as used in the 33 degree jewel is the framework of a tetrahedron. The three triangular frames can be fitted together to form the frame of a tetrahedron, with the fourth facet of the tetrahedron forming automatically on completion.

C

ccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

C

The nonagram used in the 33 degree jewel is not the only method of creating a nine pointed star from a nine sided shape or nonagon. It is a fact that once a polygon reaches seven or more sides then there is a choice of joining up the corners to create either a star with blunt points or spiky points (stellations). In the case of the pentagon there is only one way of making a pentagram. This is spiky with the internal angle of the stellations equalling only half the value of the divergence angle between adjacent stellations. The diagram below shows a spiky nonagram that follows the same principle as the pentagram.

C

cccccccccccccccccccccccccccc

C

There are two things of note about this version of the nonagram. Firstly, the internal angle of the stellations is 20 degrees, i.e. half the divergence angle of 40 degrees that all versions of the nonagram have. In fact the spiky nonagram has the stellations with the nearest angle to 19.5 degrees of any spiky polygram. An eight pointed star has stellations with a 22.5 degree angle and a ten pointed star produces an angle of 18 degrees. Secondly, when we look at the centre of the spiky nonagram then we find the blunt version with the three overlapping equilateral triangles lurking there (as shown in the previous illustration). So when we look at the nonagram in the 33 degree jewel there is another "dimension" to it. Projected from the sides of its stellations is a virtual spiky nonagram with stellations meeting at a 20 degree angle intriguingly close to the Enterprise Mission's key tetrahedral latitude of 19.5 degrees.

There are some other intriguing things about the 33 degree jewel when viewed from the standpoint of the geometry lecture for the 18th degree. In the 18th degree lecture a triple Tau is used to help describe all the three dimensional Platonic solids. In the 33 degree jewel the nonagram is fixed to a Teutonic Cross, which just happens to resemble a quadruple Tau. Does this quadruple Tau point to the Platonic solids of the 4th spatial dimension? The geometrical co-ordinate system for regular solids gives a value of "3,3" for the tetrahedron, (i.e. each apex joins three facets with each facet having three sides). The same co-ordinate system applied to a four dimensional hyper-tetra is "3,3,3". Does 3 + 3 + 3 = 9 mean anything in connection with the nine pointed star of the 33 degree jewel, which is itself a de-constructed tetrahedron? We will look at this hyperdimensional issue in more detail in Part Four where we will consider the 2,500 year old argument over the possibility of a fourth spatial dimension.

To finish off the issue of the regalia of the 33rd degree it will be noted here that there are some further hints concerning the tetrahedron. The 33 degree ring comprises an equilateral triangle engraved with the number 33. The 33 degree collar comprises a chain made up of 18 gold links - 16 triangles engraved with the number 33 and two pentacles overlaid on pentagons.

The Tetrahedron and the Eye of Horus

The religion of the ancient Egyptians metaphorically linked any source of light with spiritual enlightenment. They also linked by association the eye as a collector of light to the sources of light. The Sun and Moon were thus often described as "eyes". The Egyptians also tended to merge their gods as if they were a continuum. The creator god Atum and the Sun god Ra/Re became Atum-Ra/Re. Similarly, through the association of sunrise with resurrection the god Horus became the patron of the rising Sun. Hence the title of "Horus of the Horizon". The rising Sun and anything that reflected its light first became the "Eye of Horus". It does not take much imagination to realise that the capstone (pyramidion) of a tall pyramid caught the light of the rising Sun noticeably earlier than an observer at ground level was able to do so. The well preserved pyramidion of Amenemhet III's pyramid actually has the pharaoh's eyes engraved on it - but then each pharaoh was the incarnation of Horus.

When the pharaohs could no longer build huge pyramids they began to erect very tall obelisks. They plated the pyramidions of these obelisks with polished gold or electrum, which is an amalgam of gold and silver. Each dawn, before those on the ground were illuminated, the mirror surface of the obelisk pyramidion would give off a sun-flash - a symbolic "Eye of Horus".

C

ccccccccccccccc

C

In the Egyptian leaning Hermetic tradition of Western esoterics the obelisk and the pyramidion became symbols of the source of enlightenment. In other words God and the realm of the divine. Freemasons are an inheritor of this tradition as the excerpt below illustrates. In the Masonic banner that headed this page the "all seeing eye" is not just a symbol of God's omniscience but also of the source of spiritual enlightenment.

"These considerations lead us to an interesting topic, the Eye of Mind or the Eye of Horus ... and conveying the idea of the 'All seeing Eye'. The end set before the Egyptian neophyte was illumination, that is to be 'brought to light'. The Religion of Egypt was the Religion of the Light". [Thomas Milton Stewart, The Symbolism of the Gods of the Egyptians and the Light They Throw on Freemasonry, London, England, Baskerville Press, Ltd., 1927, p. 5]

It is not just the seekers after hidden knowledge that caught the "Eye of Horus" bug. In the 16th and 17th centuries the Catholic Church engaged in a form of architecture known as the "theology of light". If Jesus is the "Light of the World" then it seemed appropriate to make more use of light effects to symbolise this. It is no accident that a genuine Egyptian obelisk stands in the centre of St.Peter's Square with a clear view to the East to catch the first rays of the rising Sun. This obelisk symbolises Christ as Light of the World.

This brings us to the Great Seal of the United States which is full of this kind of symbolism in the form of the "unfinished pyramid". This design for the unfinished pyramid with the "Eye of Horus" hovering over it was first proposed by Freemason William Barton in 1782 and he may have invented it, (see µµµ & µµµ). In the 18th century the "Eye of Horus" design was widely popular and turned up everywhere from Catholic Churches in Europe, to Russian palaces, to Freemason's Lodges. (Freemasons would mostly call it the "Eye of Providence"). The pyramid too could often be found on Masonic "tracing boards".

However, Freemasonry has never officially adopted the combination of the "unfinished pyramid" and the "Eye of Horus" with its symbolism that a New Age of spiritual enlightenment was just within reach. In esoteric symbolism the circle, sphere and triangle represent the spiritual realm. The earthly realm is represented by the square. The pyramid with its triangular sides and square base is seen as symbolic of the shining of enlightenment from the spiritual realm to the earthly plane.

The symbolism of the Great Seal of the United States has certainly fired the imagination of some Freemasons brim full with New Age idealism. In 1933 the Secretary of Commerce Henry A.Wallace (32 degree Freemason) suggested to President Franklyn D.Roosevelt (32 degree Freemason) that the Great Seal might usefully be incorporated into the design of a coin. FDR suggested that the one Dollar bill would be even better - and so it came to pass. Appropriately for a Freemason Wallace later became the 33rd Vice President of the United States.

"It will take a more definite recognition of the Grand Architect of the Universe before the apex stone is finally fitted into place and this nation in the full strength of its power is in a position to assume leadership among the nations in inaugurating "the new order of the ages" [the motto of the Great Seal]. - Henry A.Wallace, 1934.

So, where does the tetrahedron come into this. Well there is some reason to believe that the "Eye of Horus" in the Great Seal may have been thought of as a tetrahedron by its adopters. As the illustrations below show on the obverse side of the Great Seal the exact same position of the radiant eye in the capstone is taken up by a radiant hexagram of pentacle stars. A star tetrahedron perhaps?

A more convincing piece of evidence is that Pierre Charles L'Enfant apparently equates the "Eye of Horus" directly with the "radiant tetrahedron of Capitol Hill" that was identified in his street plan for Washington in Part One, (see µµµ). In a discussion thread on Anomalies.net Keith Laney drew the participants attention to another interesting image that seems to share the space with the Capitol's radiant tetrahedron - a representation of an "Eye of Horus". This shares the same boundaries as the Capitol tetrahedron and uses many of the same avenues. The illustration below shows this representation of the radiant eye in the capstone with West rotated to the top of the picture.

The "eye" in this particular capstone representation is made up of Lincoln Park, which is also the peak of the virtual tetrahedral pyramid that Cydonia Quest has discovered. There are some reasons why L'Enfant and his Freemason contemporaries might have associated the tetrahedron with the pyramidion as "Eye of Horus".

(1)- Followers of Plato associated each of the Platonic solids with the Four Elements that made up the World, believing that each element was made up of fundamental entities that were the shape of the appropriate Platonic solid. The element of Fire was made up of entities that were tetrahedron shaped. The word "pyramid" translates as "fire shaped". So there is a link by word association between the pyramidion capstone and the tetrahedron.

(2)- Some followers of Pythagoras believed that the soul was made out of fire and hence out of tetrahedral entities, µµµ. Of course the whole point of Freemasonry is to enlighten the soul.

(3)- As mentioned earlier the triangle, circle and sphere have long symbolised the spiritual realm in the esoteric movement. The tetrahedron is entirely made up of triangular facets and hence carries a highly spiritual symbolism. A tetrahedron circumscribed by a sphere would carry even greater spiritual connotations.

It may even be that an underground movement of ancient dissident Greek geometrists worked out the mathematics for the four dimensional hyper-tetra. In geometry the simplest shape in each dimension is known as the "simplex". In two dimensions the simplex is the triangle and in three dimensions it is the tetrahedron. For ancient Greek geometrists who believed a 4th dimension was possible, the geometry of the hyper-tetra would have been the simplest for them to solve. Part Four will explore this issue in more detail.

Finally, internet trawls revealed a single web page that made the same connection between the nine pointed star, the tetrahedron and the "Eye of God" that has been made here by Cydonia Quest. I was amused to find that it belonged to a hashish smoking sect with an interest in the Knights Templars, (see µµµ). Readers may be assured that the conclusions reached on this Cydonia Quest page were reached with nothing more intoxicating than a nice cup of tea. J
