As we entered June, many of the major themes began to converge and culminate in a sequence of remarkable, ritualistic events.

First, my comments from June 1:

In Part 1 of the Time Code article was discussed the importance of Venus (= Lucifer) and its alter-ego star Sirius which is inseparable from the idea of summer solstice and New Year via ancient Egyptian tradition. Well, June is the summer-solstice month (June 20/21) and this year there will be a very rare 'Transit of Venus' - the 'Lucifer planet' moving directly across the disk of the Sun - on June 8. [...]

Two key points here: The idea of opposite/reversal attached to the ~May 8 window relative to August 6 (which is also calendrically analogous to 9/11 [and summer solstice]) makes the following fact quite intriguing. The 'reverse' of August 6, or 8/6, is 6/8 - that is, June 8... the day of the Venus transit.

And Venus in May was positioned at the Sun's summer-solstice point. In fact, specifically around May 8 the summer-solstice point was precisely marked by Mars. [...]

So you see that the events of May are heavily intertwined with the month of June and its two key dates, June 8 and June 20/21 (summer solstice). Remarkably, even those two dates are 'intelligently' arranged. I've discussed before the importance of comparing the Julian and Gregorian calendars which now have 13-day difference. Well, June 8 and June 21 (summer solstice) are separated by 13 days! In other words, these key dates are calendrically equatable.

Consequently my general view is that this June will be an 'echo month' of May, probably an echo with more intensity. So naturally I will continue to watch for things like the fall/exit of Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and/or Cheney and their neo-conservative minions

The Super Bowl 'omen' would really come alive at this point - almost certainly by design.

Here is what I stated back on Feb. 23:

While so much has already been said about Janet Jackson 'nipplegate', there is still an important symbolism that no one as far as I know has really detected in the whole thing. This has to do with the 'nipple ring' or whatever it's called that partially covered Janet's exposed right breast. As has been commented in many places, it's in the shape of a 8-pointed star - or the Sun. [...]

As already explained, Jesus Christ is [traditionally] very much comparable to Horus-Osiris. And it happens that Horus is a prominent sun-god. And the Jesus-Horus connection is most recognized through the almost identical traditional depictions of Mary/Isis suckling the baby Jesus/Horus. (The Virgin Mary and Mary Magdalene are sometimes considered interchangeable, especially in the esoteric/Grail context.) So, the 'Sun' on Janet's breast would quite easily relate to Horus-Jesus; and mythologically the baby's birth implies the death of Christ/Osiris...

Then on March 12 I went further:

Because Mary Magdalene, or Isis the sister-wife of Osiris, is traditionally identified with Venus and the breast is decidedly a feminine symbol, we can easily interpret the Sun nipple-ring on Janet's breast as signifying the Sun covering Venus. And the direct conjunction of Sun and Venus is exactly what will take place on June 8 this year!

The above connection is intensified by the following:

• Breasts produce milk.
• The summer solstice point in the sky is right on the path of the Milky Way.
• The Transit of Venus took place at the edge of the Milky Way.

So, all combined, what we have here is a clear message - that the Venus Transit on June 8 is the event, or at least one of the events, pinpointed by the Super-Bowl 'omen'. And it signifies the time of the Osirian Resurrection, the death of Osiris and the birth of Horus. Judging from the events of May, the role of Osiris was likely to be played by the US leadership and the role of Horus by Schwarzenegger.

This projection was to be dramatically fulfilled by the death of Ronald Reagan on June 5.

Here is what I wrote on June 8:

Well, at the time I didn't quite realize just how significant Reagan's death really was. Obviously it was a huge event especially for the US media which covered the week-long proceedings like there was no tomorrow. I frankly stopped watching TV news during this period because the coverage had quickly become overkill.

Still, I was compelled to watch the funeral ceremony on the final day - which fell on Friday, June 11. I was astounded by what I saw.

I jumped up and excitedly wrote the following...

June 12, '04   Witnessing Once and Future King

Did you see it? Did you feel the 'deep impact' of June 11, 2004? I can't recall witnessing a 'ritual' so powerful like this one, climaxing late yesterday as the Sun set on the California horizon. The energy emanating from the ceremony was so great that I found it unsettling. It was all beautiful on the surface - indeed near perfect - and yet underneath it there was an esoteric ritual taking place simultaneously. It was unmistakable. Previously on June 8 I wrote that the death event of Ronald Reagan signified the death of Osiris (Egyptian god of the dead) - something projected beforehand here at Etemenanki: ...the death of a former President, i.e. Reagan, immediately preceding the Horus/Grail event of the Venus transit is symbolically quite fitting. This is the story of the death of Osiris and the birth of Horus. I explained that the death/funeral was a ritual designed to interact, or commemorate, the Transit of Venus that took place on June 8, right in the middle of the national mourning period. Venus being a form of Isis (or Mary Magdalene) and Osiris being symbolic of the sunset, the rare union of the two celestial objects reenacted the mythological event of Horus being conceived by Isis, as she is said to have received the seed of her husband Osiris concurrently with his death. Hence I anticipated that an event analogous to the conception/birth of Horus would emerge following or together with the presidential death ritual. I previously wrote: It's interesting that Reagan's death should take place right before the Venus transit as the Venus-Sun union is symbolic of the Mary-Jesus (as well as Isis-Osiris) union and the resultant birth of Horus, the 'Holy Grail' (the seed of Christ/Antichrist).  Since the very beginning, August 2003, I have been viewing the political rise of Arnold Schwarzenegger as the new 'Messianic'/'Antichristic' king, Horus, being born. Etemenanki has been the only and certainly the first place, as far as I know, to make this interpretation - though I should note that Alex Jones and the LaRouche camp expressed more or less similar views at the time of the California 'Total Recall' election last year (both compared Arnie to Hitler). I noted just recently in the June 8 update: The 'hidden form' [which I associated with the Venus transit] may also relate to our 'Antichrist' theme. And in The Lucifer Time Code (May 3, '04) I listed the following as one of the projected events that might manifest in this very period: Major event involving Arnold Schwarzenegger and/or other Horus ('Antichristic') figures. As Reagan died, things began to form into a perfect-storm ritual designed to 'inaugurate', in an occultic fashion, the New King, the 'Antichristic' Terminator. Is it just a coincidence that both Reagan and Arnold were an ex-Hollywood actor who became [Republican] California governor? Conceptually they can be viewed as alter egos, just as Osiris and his son Horus were. And so as Reagan died, we could easily expect that Schwarzenegger - in his new role - was to be conceived/born. Indeed, the finale of the week-long Osirian ritual brought Reagan's dead body and along with it the attention of the entire nation from Washington DC to California, the land governed by Arnold, to be buried at sunset as requested by Reagan himself. All the major TV channels in the US showed this grand finale in such a way that it was openly intimated that the fading Sun was symbolic of the former president himself - which was indeed clearly the case. As I watched the farewell speeches given by his sons and daughter, a familiar face emerged into view.... someone sitting right behind the Reagan family. And there he was: Arnold Schwarzenegger... the 'hidden form under the splendor' (a la Quatrain IV-28/Nostradamus discussed before). The camera work was subtle but it unmistakably made the point of acknowledging his presence repeatedly. And it became abundantly clear to me that he was the hidden star of this extraordinary ritual, the biggest one in recent memory. I was transfixed by all this, as I knew the momentous implications of what I was witnessing. The torch of 'kingship' - or 'Antichristship' - was publicly, yet covertly, being passed on to The Next - Arnold Schwarzenegger. As the proceedings approached the ending, virtually all major channels began to focus more and more on the setting sun hovering just above the mountainous western horizon. People were now moving in procession slowly toward the casket holding Reagan's body, paying their respect for the last time. But the TV cameras stayed with the Sun which was finally disappearing into the horizon. As I was observing this sequence, I just knew that at the moment of the Sun's disappearance, signifying the death of Osiris, Arnold would be highlighted in some way, as symbolically the Osirian 'death' had to give rise to the next incarnation embodied by his son Horus (= rising sun). If Schwarzenegger was indeed the 'occult star' of the whole ritual as suspected, this 'coincidence' had to take place. And if it indeed magically did, that would have to be considered an incredibly powerful confirmation of the hidden design. I didn't have to know the exact local sunset time since the TV did a good job of tracking the fading Sun. I had detected the presence of Arnold in the line moving toward the coffin and almost instinctively I began to anticipate what was coming next: the 'death' of the Sun precisely coinciding with Arnie standing in front of the dead 'king'. (This would be only about a 20-second window). By this time, my hands began to sweat and my heartbeat began to race. Something to do with 'knowing' what is coming and knowing its momentous implications. Chances of it taking place so small, and yet the certainty of the coming 'magic moment' overwhelming. As the TV showed the last seconds of the fateful sunset taking place on the horizon and the commentator saying '...and the Sun is now history', the camera went right back to the casket. It showed a couple approaching the casket, saying final goodbye. The man was Arnold Schwarzenegger.... At the 'moment of death', Arnie was right there 'face-to-face' with the dead president, as if to receive the 'spirit of kingship'. This is exactly what happened. I witnessed it with my own eyes. The predicted 'magical coincidence' took place just as described above... Make no mistake: Schwarzenegger will soon be the leader of the United States, if not the entire world. Probably sooner than we think. And his leadership will likely bring about the termination of the the United States as we know it. It is not apparent yet, but it seems the US has now esoterically become an 'Arnold Country'. From this point forward we are unlikely to see any calm period until the 'termination', just several years away. At this time I must say: put your seatbelt on. Horus has arrived and we are in for a wild ride... Chaos and the rise of a (Martian) new world order.

As you can see, what I saw impressed as well as worried me greatly. The 'magical ritual' was... well, magical... in a rather dark sense. But soon I realized that there was much more to the hidden design that would make it even more 'magical', and seemingly impossible.

The new revelation began to unfold as I began to wonder about the literal counterpart of the sunset itself, i.e. sunrise. No doubt the sunset of June 11 at/near Los Angeles was ritualistically very important and designed to mark the death of Osiris as well as the conception/birth of Horus. If the sunset itself was symbolic of the death of Osiris/Reagan, I thought, there ought to have been a sunrise somewhere to signify the simultaneous rise of Horus - the sunrise-god/king - embodied by Schwarzenegger.

As the Sun went down in Los Angeles (or Simi Valley), the Sun was seen rising on the horizon somewhere - more or less the opposite side of the earth. Then I remembered a comment posted by an Etemenanki reader 'Alfredo', pointing out that the Olympic torch currently going around the world was at Giza/Cairo on June 11, i.e. the same date as Reagan's funeral. I found this intriguing because of its relevance to Schwarzenegger. As noted in Part 1, the 'rise of Arnold' cannot be separated from Giza/Cairo, the notion of fire, and the Olympics:

• Schwarzenegger's dramatic election announcement on Aug. 6, 2003 was apparently designed to coincide with the heliacal rising of the star Sirius as seen from Giza/Cairo - a celestial event that signaled for ancient Egyptians the beginning of the annual life-giving flood of the Nile, signifying the resurrection of Osiris/birth of Horus.
• The term 'Sirius' is linked to the notion of 'scorching' (thus also with fire); the term 'pyramid' is also etymologically linked to fire.

Secondly:

• One of Schwarzenegger's nicknames happens to be 'The Olympian' (he won the 'Mr. Olympia' bodybuilding competition six times).
• Venus - or Lucifer the 'light bearer' - has an orbital period of 225 earth-days. The Athens Olympic Games, the destination of the torch, will begin on the 225th day of the year 2004 [after Jan. 1] - August 13.

Thirdly:

• The name 'Cairo' denotes Mars, and both Mars and the Great Sphinx at Giza were thought to have been a form of Horus in ancient Egypt.
• The California 'Total Recall election' last summer/fall coincided with Mars coming historically close to Earth (closest in 60,000 years), peaking around August 27. The film Total Recall, featuring Schwarzenegger, is all about Mars.

And so naturally I decided there was good enough reason to check the position of the Sun as seen from Giza/Cairo at the moment of the LA (Simi Valley) sunset (~8 pm local).

I quickly fired up my Starry Night Pro program and reproduced the Californian sunset as seen on June 11. I then instructed the program to jump to Cairo. What emerged next was both shocking and satisfying.

The Sun was rising right at the horizon of Cairo/Giza!

Hence came the inevitable conclusion: the 'rise of Horus/Schwarzenegger' was designed to be 'acknowledged' by the Egyptian/'Martian' sunrise at Giza/Cairo - coinciding perfectly with the fall of Osiris, the sunset, taking place at Simi Valley/LA!

I found this mind-boggling. The level of sophistication and precision demonstrated by the design/coordination was off the scale. (We wonder who could set all this up so perfectly.) This was a powerful 'passing of the torch' ritual indeed.

The 'ritual' didn't end there, of course.

Technically speaking, the Olympic torch and the sunrise at Giza/Cairo didn't literally coincide. That's because the 'Antichristic' sunrise found above took place on the morning of June 12 (a day 'ahead' of California due to the time-zone difference) while the torch was passing by Giza on June 11 local time. Between June 11 and 12, the torch was actually traveling from Cairo to Cape Town at the southern tip of Africa.

As the illustration above shows, the torch's movement from June 11 to 12 closely followed the course of the Nile river.

The Nile is an unusually 'vertical' river that flows northward from the equator to Giza/Cairo (30°N latitude). It can easily be seen as a meridian - a longitudinal line - carved directly on the earth's surface.

Now consider the following: Today's official International Prime Meridian is the longitude going through Greenwich; more esoterically the Zero/Prime Meridian would be the one going through Paris, sometimes called the 'Rose Line' and associated with the Grail/messianic bloodline; and an even more esoteric Zero Meridian would be the one going through or near the Great Pyramid of Giza. Even beyond that - i.e. the most 'esoteric' - would be the 'Nile anchor meridian', 33°E longitude, of the 'Time River scheme' revealed in my book, The Time Rivers. {The latter two are close enough to make no difference in our discussion here.)

In other words, the longitudinal line marked by the Nile is a form of esoteric 'Zero Meridian'. This then relates right back to the earlier Longinus/Spear of Destiny discussion stemming from the Super Bowl/Pepsi-ad symbolism, and linked to the Transit of Venus, the Messianic bloodline, and, as noted before:

Birth of Horus, birth of Antichrist - that would probably the strongest concept conveyed by all this.

Now let us review the key points made earlier:

• "What I find particularly interesting here is the potential connection between the term 'longitude' and the name 'Longinus'. I don't think it's a mere coincidence that Longinus is associated with a lance, i.e. a straight line... such as a longitudinal line (meridian), especially since Jesus' blood/bloodline is esoterically associated with a meridian called 'Rose Line' (more or less equated with the Paris Zero Meridian). And this certainly increases the symbolic depth of the longitudinal celestial alignment formed around the spring equinox..."
• "...I saw the name of the area where Opportunity landed - 'Meridiani Planum'. That is, 'Meridian Plane' - so called because the site is near the Prime Meridian, or longitude zero, of Mars! Very unexpected, but this certainly seems to confirm my symbolic interpretation regarding Longinus, i.e. the relevance of longitude zero/Prime Meridian/Rose Line."

And this:

Because Mary Magdalene, or Isis the sister-wife of Osiris, is traditionally identified with Venus and the breast is decidedly a feminine symbol, we can easily interpret the Sun nipple-ring on Janet's breast as signifying the Sun covering Venus. And the direct conjunction of Sun and Venus is exactly what will take place on June 8 this year!

The above connection is intensified by the following:

• Breasts produce milk. [...]
• The Transit of Venus takes place at the edge of the Milky Way.

What I didn't point out earlier is that the Venus transit of June 8, a rare Sun-Venus union, actually took place very near the galactic 'Prime Meridian' - i.e. the longitude zero (or 180°) of the sky grid based on the Milky Way! But the real punch line here is this: Venus crossed the galactic meridian more precisely on June 11, the very day of Reagan's funeral!

We thus have the following, amazing set of ritualistic 'coincidences':

• June 11: Sunset at LA (Simi Valley) signifying the death of Reagan/Osiris
• June 11: Sunrise taking place simultaneously at Cairo/Giza signifying the rise of Schwarzenegger/Horus
• June 11 (local time): The Olympic torch passing through Cairo/Giza, 'commemorating' the rise of Arnold aka 'The Olympian'
• June 11-12: The Olympic torch traveling along the Nile, an esoteric Prime Meridian
• June 11: Venus crossing the galactic Prime Meridian

(Note: Venus crossed the galactic meridian earlier on May 8/9 also, which closely coincided with the release of the 'shock & awe' video showing the beheading of Nick Berg whose body was found on May 8.)

Well, this is still not the end of the 'ritual' design. The next 'magical coincidence' would represent the final nail in the coffin.

Get this:

• On June 16, the Olympic torch came to Los Angeles, a prominent city in Arnold's state, California, and approximately where Reagan's funeral was held
• On the same day, a film called Around the World in 80 Days opened in which Schwarzenegger makes an appearance
• The title 'Around the World in 80 Days' evokes the Olympic torch 'going around the world'
• In the film, Arnold's character - a Turkish prince - is called 'Hapi'. In ancient Egypt, Hapi was the god of the Nile! More specifically Hapi personified the annual inundation of the Nile which in turn signified the revitalization of Osiris (also a Nile god), i.e. the birth of Horus!

So, clearly, this is a super-ritual... at the center of which is Arnold Schwarzenegger. All the indications are that Arnie is destined to 'change the world' - or at least the New World - in the near future by playing the role of Horus, Messiah, and/or 'Antichrist'.

Countdown To Final Solution

Osirian resurrection, Horus, Giza, Mars, Venus, meridian, Olympics... It is truly uncanny how coherently these major themes interact with X-72, one of Nostradamus' most famous quatrains:

Quatrain X-72
L'an mil neuf cens nonante neuf sept mois,
Du ciel viendra vn grand Roy d'effrayeur:
Resusciter le grand Roy d'Angolmois,
Auant apres Mars regner par bon-heur.
The year 1999 seven months,
From the sky will come a great King of terror:
To bring back to life the great King of Angolmois,
Before after Mars to reign by good luck

My interpretation of X-72 was first presented in September '98 in an article titled 1999: Final Solution. Since then it's been updated somewhat but the basic elements remained unchanged and consistent - something quite normal for me but a rare phenomenon in the largely foresight-less field of prophetic interpretation.

Among other things, I have shown how X-72 was very much applicable to the 9/11 'terror' event - the date of '1999 seven months' being calendrically analogous to '2001 September', etc. - in my post-9/11 articles such as The Labour of the Sun (February 15, '02), Rex Deux (March 11, '02) and The Message of Cycle 23 (May 24, '02).

Here let me first point out that:

• Osiris is called the 'Lord of Terror' in the Book of the Dead
• The Great Sphinx, a form of Horus/Mars, is also known as 'Father of Terror'
• Mars, directly mentioned in line 4, can be viewed as the 'king of terror' in that its two moons are named 'Phobos' and 'Deimos', both basically meaning 'terror'
• The 'resurrection' theme appears in line 3, coming right after the phrase 'King of terror'
• As for 'Angolmois' (line 3), there was a province in south-east France called 'Angoumois' where today we find 'Angouleme', a city notable for being at longitude 0 deg.

Let me next bring your attention to the fact that in 1999: Final Solution one of the big pieces of the puzzle used to solve the quatrain riddle was Cassini - a NASA space probe sent to Saturn in the late '90s.

Back in 1998/1999, I focused on the fact that Cassini, launched in Oct '97, was about to come back from the inner solar system to make an earth-flyby on Aug. 18, 1999. I associated it with the 'king of terror' said to come 'from the sky' a la Quatrain X-72 especially since Saturn is in many ways the Greco-Roman version of Osiris, the god of resurrection and the 'once and future king'.

Well, the Cassini mission is heating up again today. The probe is about to reach its destination on July 1, '04 - now just days away! So combined with the symbolic implications already mentioned, this ominous timing makes it clear that the quatrain is becoming very much relevant again.

Furthermore, in 1999: Final Solution I associated X-72 with another quatrain, IV-28, i.e. the quatrain apparently alluding to the Transit of Venus. As I wrote back then ('98):

Now, what's interesting..., coming back to IV-28, is that Venus is to be "covered by the sun"... in August 1999 - the very timeframe suggested by X-72. And it's when Cassini’s Earth-flyby occurs. Only roughly 60 days before the Earth-flyby, Cassini’s Venus-flyby occurs (June 20, ’99), and consequently, Cassini is to approach from the "direction of Venus" and be "temporarily hidden by the sun". The match between this and the IV-28 information is quite uncanny, and it brings together IV-28 and X-72.

So obviously you cannot say that my quatrain interpretations are done in hindsight since much of what's emerging today was conceptually anticipated years ago. And the pattern discerned through the quatrains seems to be approaching some kind of climax at the present time.

The significance of the timing is hard to miss. Cassini's arrival on July 1 closely coincides with the 'handover' of Iraq, scheduled for June 30, (the last day of month). It represents a politically intense day and a source of much violence going on today. So this coincidence is quite ominous.

Further increasing the gravity of the timing is the fact that Venus will be crossing the galactic meridian in early July again. (Venus is going back and forth in that region during this period.) The meridian crossing will occur on July 4 - Independence Day. This could be viewed as a key date especially when added that the crossing point's galactic latitude will be -19.5 degrees, an angle said to be the 'Holy Grail' message found geometrically encoded on the surface of Mars (Cydonia).

Related to the above are the following key dates of late June:

• The summer solstice, June 20/21, is obviously a key date for our themes.

• June 24, the John the Baptist day, is another key date - Schwarzenegger being a form of John/Oak King, associated with decapitation, and all.

• Cassini's Venus flyby in 1999 before heading toward Earth took place on June 24.

• The date of Reagan's funeral, June 11, representing a big 'Osirian Resurrection' day, is calendrically analogous to June 24 since there is a 13-day difference between the Gregorian and Julian calendars. (June 11 + 13 days = June 24)

It may also be relevant that June 24 is calendrically interchangeable with July 7, separated by 13 days...

As for what can happen during this window covering late June and early July, I'll just basically repeat the potential events projected in The Lucifer Time Code: Part 1:

• Major development involving or associated with 9/11 and/or Iraq.

• Major event that has to do with the fall/exit of one or more of the 'Babylon leaders' (which include figures such as, and those closely associated with, Bush/Cheney, Blair, Sharon, and particularly the Pope).

• Major announcement concerning Mars, such as the discovery of life or present water of Mars.

• Major event involving Arnold Schwarzenegger and/or other Horus ('Antichristic') figures.

• Some kind of nuclear event.

These themes are likely to continue beyond the June-July window and into the latter part of 2004. The Athens Olympic Games in August is obviously a key event in all this. There is also going to be a very significant celestial configuration in September. And of course we'll have that presidential election in November...

I must also say that the issue of the 'Patriot Act' is likely to be a big part of what's coming in the near future. Sparks may begin to fly by late June as Michael Moore's powerful documentary film Fahrenheit 9/11, opening on June 25, will force this controversial issue to go further mainstream. The question is: Did the triumph of the Patriots in this year's Super Bowl foreshadow the triumph of the Patriot Act, or did it foreshadow the triumph of the real patriots, i.e. the defeat of the Patriot Act? While not very clear at this point, signs leans toward the former.

In any case, these topics will be discussed in future installments of The Lucifer Time Code.

A uniquely eventful period in history is upon us... Stay tuned.

[Back to main page]

It should be noted that the recovery here of the ancient Egyptian stade has been made possible only very recently by the emergences of the Global Positioning System and Google Earth (see Appendix C). In other words, with data from artificial satellites and radio telemetry. The question of how the builders could position the Horizon Pyramid so very precisely without such aids belongs with that other great mystery ­­­­­– how the Horizon Pyramid was built.

The significance of the 30th Parallel in the scheme of things is that it can be geometrically constructed in cross-section, with compasses and straightedge, via a vesica piscis. The three-dimensional analog of the vesica is formed by the overlapping of two equal spheres such that the centre of one lies on the surface of the other, with the 30th Parallel occurring along the intersection of the surfaces.

Figure 3-19. Vesica Piscis And 30th Parallel

From here on the latitudes of the apex of the Horizon Pyramid, of the radius of exactly 3⅔ Lunar radii and of the most northerly overhead Moon will be treated as identities of the 30th Parallel. Furthermore, Moon and Earth will be treated as reference spheres whose radii are in the ratio 3:11. And π will be evaluated at ²²/₇, for by doing all of these things a series of remarkable coincidences will be encountered.
