NOTES FROM THE WATCHER #1: THE MOON AS NOAH’S ARK

THE MOON AS NOAH’S ARK—A BILLION YEAR OLD TEMPLE TO THE EVOLUTION OF CONSCIOUSNESS

This begins the first in a series of short notes relating to the research interests at the Suburbs of Heaven.1)With acknowledgement to the late David Flynn’s Watcher website.

Is our moon the original and “real” Noah’s Ark? Strange question to be sure, but the ancients said that it was and that it, in the words of Manly P. Hall, “…preserved the seeds of living creatures within its boatlike crescent.”2)See Manly P. Hall’s An Encyclopedic Outline of Masonic, Hermetic, Qabbalistic and Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy in the chapter on “The Ancient Mysteries and
Secret Societies
Which Have Influenced Modern Masonic Symbolism Part One.”

In 1996 at the initial and first iteration of the Enterprise Mission conference forum, using the handle “Merlin”, I introduced the extra-terrestrial artifact and anomaly community to the idea that the glass boat of the Druidic mysteries had a potential symbolic reference to our extensive glass covered satellite; the Moon. Early 19th century researchers were quite convinced that the moon was considered by the ancients as Noah’s Ark. 3)As early evidenced by the extensive research work of the Reverend George Stanley Faber in his The Origin of Pagan Idolatry which brought together a number of earlier research work from the likes of Jacob Bryant in his A New System or Analysis of Ancient Mythology to Edward Davies’ The Mythology and Rites of the British Druids all of which kind of research could be considered a sort of prototype for what is now termed Geomythology.

From Jacob Bryant’s A New System or an Analysis of Ancient Mythology  Volume 3 of the 1774-76 edition, page 601.cf. the mission patch of Apollo 11.

 

In the chapter on “Isis, the Virgin of the World” in The Secret Teachings of all Ages Manly Hall declares that:

“…the story of
Noah and his ark is a cosmic allegory concerning the repopulation of planets at the beginning
of each world period…”4)See Manly P. Hall in his Secret Teachings of All Ages, page 123. 2003 Penguin Reader’s edition

If the current controversy of pre-historic cometary bombardment  and/or solar outbursts (with the chilling possibility that it occurs more frequently than initially thought) are all found to be accurate, then the quotation above of Manly Hall’s could mean that the ancient system of the mysteries with all its subsequent influence and implications to religions and the ritualism of modern esoteric societies will require a more than superficial dismissal of its asserted informational content. Content not only pre-historic but metaphysical.5)Additional insights about the cycles of catastrophe can be explored at the Geo-mythologist Randall Carlson’s podcast site.

Indeed, such additional quotations of his as, “An early
initiate of the Druidic Mysteries related that admission to their midnight ceremony was gained by means
of a glass boat, called Cwrwg Gwydrin. 6)Interestingly, according to the Gematria Calculator the Jewish Gematria number for Cwrwg Gwydrin is 3330. Although it is not 2160, which would have been even more interesting, the number 2160 or a variant thereof factors frequently in occult and esoteric numerology which is significant given the potential artificial nature of the moon and the survivors who may have once taken refuge there as ancient mythological tales suggest.This boat symbolized the moon, which, floating upon the waters
of eternity, preserved the seeds of living creatures within its boatlike crescent…”7)See Manly P. Hall’s An Encyclopedic Outline of Masonic, Hermetic, Qabbalistic and Rosicrucian Symbolical Philosophy in the chapter on “The Ancient Mysteries and
Secret Societies
Which Have Influenced Modern Masonic Symbolism Part One.” Interestingly, in the 1990’s, my own interest in the Alternative 3 scenarios stemmed from exactly these sorts of declarations in The Secret Teachings of All Ages. More recently, the idea that the moon would make a great repository for civilizations contingency plans has gained attention and adds further credence to the ancient lunar ark model.
continue to propagate the lunar ark model.

Symbolic titles have been associated with  the ancient priesthoods that engineered and propagated such information and have asserted that they descended from the survivors of the Great Deluge, which of course, would include all potential mythic personages associated with the moon such as Hermes, Isis etc. that carried such titles all of which give insights to the lunar symbolism both physical and metaphysical8)The Moon’s changing phases (faces) was an apt analogy into the phenomenology of imagination. This will be explored further as we proceed. that is being communicated. 9)Even Richard Hoagland on his Other Side of Midnight program has intimated that the hermetic association with the moon is related to priesthoods having come from the moon.

It is my decades long and still developing contention, that the Moon is potentially part of an artificially constructed Precambrian (or perhaps early post-Noachian–pun intended) temple devoted to corporeal and incorporeal evolution.  The numbers have suggested it (of which 2160 years in an Zodiacal age, and 2160 miles for an average lunar diameter are only a first examples). Other analogies appear to exist that are not just numerically based. The moon could have been artificially placed in its orbit by an very ancient and advanced civilization possibly to engineer and trigger evolution itself. At least in a particular way. (Although this has also been proposed by Richard Hoagland at various times as well.)

The moons orbit and position influences the Earth’s axis and all our ground-based observational phenomena of the seasons and stellar and luminary sighting. All of this may have been purposed.  But it must be kept in mind, that the star fields themselves will have changed over vast periods of time as Carl Sagan once demonstrated. However, the arcs in the sky would be permanent and are indeed “arc”-hetypal. (or should it be “Arka”-typal?) One wonders at the etymology of such words…

The moon may even be a kind of last ditch defense for wandering debris that might impact the Earth that escaped the outer gas giants. Catastrophes that have occurred on axis-shattering scales might have given rise to slight numerical errors that would be condign to such catastrophes. More research is needed.

The Watcher has spoken…

VOODOO CHILD…(SLIGHT RETURN)

 

Celebrating the death of a human being is never appropriate. But celebrating a life is. On these occasions memorials can remind us not only of the fragility of life, but the sacredness of persons that we have and cherish with us today.

Jimi Hendrix was an inspiration not only in his own generation, but for generations after. Like all great composers throughout the centuries, his influence is present as an echo and an ever slight reminder of that influential fire of the human spirit and soul to soar ever higher towards the zenith of expression. Building not a Tower of Babel, but a grammar of transcendent language–Music.

And the work continues…

Hendrix has been “instrumental” in many ways, and not just to musicians.

We will always thank him for his “Slight Return”…

“I called to remembrance the brasen Lyons, in Salomons Temple, which were of such fierce countenances, as that they would bring men to forgetfulness…”—From Hypnoteromachia Poliphili

“the flood of the First Noah took place on Mars. The garden (of Eden) was located in the Northern Hemisphere not far from the polar regions…The waters rushed down into the conduits and drowned all the original Adam-II people there.” —From “The Sky People” (originally published in 1961)

“…as I stood there in the vast embrasure, I had also a knowledge, or memory, of this present life of ours, deep down within me; but touched with a halo of dreams”—From “The Night Land”

Although The Night Land takes place on Earth in an imaginative future aeons away, I had already surmised the eerie rapport with Cydonia and the landscapes of the planet Mars when I initially read The Night Land in 1990. 1) Some of this I briefly mentioned in the November 4th 2015 open-lines episode of Richard C. Hoagland’s Other side of Midnight radio program. In this installment we will focus briefly on those resemblances and where it appears I am not alone in sensing them.

Dwellers on the Threshold: The “Night Land” and the “Anamnesic Imagination” Part 5-Drawing the Circle

A symbolic representation of the compounds of the human soul as illustrated in the “Opus Mago-Cabbalisticum Et Theosophicum” by Georg Von Welling

 

“For all its flaws and idiosyncrasies, The Night Land is utterly unsurpassed, unique, astounding. A mutant vision like nothing else there has ever been.”–China Mieville writer of the New Weird genre

The Night Land, a weird alchemical blend of the eschatologies depicted in The Time Machine and the drama of cosmic angst playing out in The War of the Worlds, confects an occult and symbolically analogical landscape of the human psyche.

One of the keys perhaps in understanding the metaphysics behind the nature of the soul as conceived in Hodgson’s literary formulations and even just the basic concept of an “Electric Circle” in The Night Land in the first place, is, as we hinted previously in this series, probably found in Marie Corelli’s 1886 novel,  A Romance of Two Worlds.

Dwellers on the Threshold:The “Night Land” and the “Anamnesic Imagination” Part 4-The Call of the Muse

I am haunted by recollections
Of places where mad perfections
In horror were brought to birth;
Where pylons of onyx mounted
To heavens with fire embowered,
And turrets and domes uncounted
O’er the terraced torrents towered.
—H. P. Lovecraft
in his 1925 poem “Primavera

Although it is outside the scope of this series to get heavily into the literary influences involved behind Hodgson and Lovecraft, it is, as was indicated in part 1, a necessary query into the workings behind the subconscious and any possible connection to an anamnesis of a cataclysmic end to a pre-historic Martian civilization. If there were ever such a civilization, given all the other possibilities we are exploring here at Suburbs of Heaven, it would pervade the entire solar system, not just Mars.
