The World of Meaning: The Circumstantial Revelations of the Soul

By William Meader
Source: https://meader.org/2013/03/the-world-of-meaning-the-circumstantial-revelations-of-the-soul/

To live a meaningful life is to participate in the consciousness of the soul. When the soul is inwardly touched, a sense of purpose is slowly realized, and meaningful living then emerges in life. Meaning is therefore a state of consciousness. It represents an evolution away from perceiving outer events at face value. Instead, events are understood as symbols that reveal hidden significance. When a person begins to experience this, it indicates that s/he has stepped into the World of Meaning: the state of consciousness through which the soul’s wisdom is revealed.

Every human being will one day enter into the World of Meaning, either in this life or another. It is an inevitable step on the long journey of spiritual evolution leading to eventual enlightenment. However, to see this requires that we refine our understanding of evolution. Contrary to Darwinian theory, evolution is not based upon the changes occurring in the physical form of a species. Instead, it is rooted in the changes occurring in consciousness. In other words, the physical changes that occur over time are not the cause of evolution, but are instead its effect. Consciousness evolves, and form simply reflects this. And, at a certain point in the evolution of consciousness, the World of Meaning becomes part of one’s awareness.

The World of Meaning reveals the pattern of truth underlying outer circumstance. When the mind is engaged in it, various life events are no longer viewed as random. Things that may have seemed arbitrary in the past are recognized as having underlying organization. As such, a person is able to intuit a deeper meaning beyond the outer appearance of things. Something significant is revealed. In this context, the word “revealed” is important, for the World of Meaning is always a state of consciousness that is revelatory. It sheds light into the darkness of uncertainty and confusion.

When a person begins to seek explanation to the circumstances of his/her life, it indicates that the World of Meaning is being touched. However, the insights gained are often misinterpreted, at least initially. This misinterpretation will usually manifest in one of two ways.  In the first instance, s/he will tend to project cause or fault onto the outer world.  Distrust toward circumstance then emerges. When severe, conspiracy thinking can even take hold. In such cases, the source of one’s life predicament is believed to be the duplicitous motives of others. The second misconception is one of naiveté. In this case, the search for hidden meaning is strong, but the discriminative faculty of the mind is feeble, thus distorted perception easily takes root. Without clear mental discrimination, such a person will tend to seek hidden meaning in every event in life.

In time (often in a subsequent incarnation), these two tendencies are corrected. The individual who projects fault will begin to realize that, although there are people in the world of duplicitous motive, the real enemy is within oneself. From this acceptance, an honest ability to introspect develops. S/he then begins to understand that the meaning revealed within life circumstance is impulsed from within, not from without. And, to the individual who believes that every event (whether major or minor) holds important meaning, a tempered understanding will slowly be developed. This person will learn that there are times when the soul reveals something “profoundly meaningful” through a given circumstance, while at other times it rests in latency.

It may be asked, how does one know if the World of Meaning is actually being experienced? Admittedly, it is different from one person to the next. The spiritual constitution of each human being is quite unique. This, coupled with differing karmic backgrounds, causes “meaningful realization” to be widely diverse among people. Even so, there are certain fundamental features of perception that are common to all experiences coming forth from the World of Meaning, and therefore from the soul.

1.      Meaning brings understanding to what was previously incomprehensible. The soul holds the wisdom acquired from countless incarnations. When conveyed, this wisdom provides a type of understanding that the lower self (personality) does not possess. Though accurate memory of our past incarnations is questionable, the “patterns” of truth learned in previous lives is what the soul radiates into the mind. These patterns then form the foundation of spiritual insight and meaningful thought.

2.      Meaningfulness tends toward simplification and away from complexity. When an individual senses something spiritually meaningful, it indicates that his/her perceptions have grasped upon a broad principle of truth. This principle then gives explanation and clarity to something that seemed complex and confounding. Broad principles (realized by the abstract mind) are simple, as compared to the usual thoughts of the logical, concrete mind.

3.       The World of Meaning always adds context to one’s perceptions. By this is meant that meaningful insight comes when we learn to perceive, not just an event, but also the context to which that event is a part. At first, this is done solely with reference to one’s personal life. For example, an individual seeks deeper meaning of an event (let us say – a career happening) in relation to the wholeness of his/her life. In this case, the wholeness of life (including family, interests, beliefs, etc.) is used as a context for gaining insight into the particular event in question. Later, as consciousness further evolves, the perception of context enlarges beyond the self. This type of expanded context could be related to a variety of things, such as some particular social issue, political ideology, or a collective belief cherished by group of people. Still wider, a person’s context of consideration could encompass humanity as a whole. The important principle to understand is that the big picture always deepens our understanding of the little picture. In short, context gives meaning to content.

4.       Spiritually considered, the realization of meaning is both a centralizing and decentralizing experience. The insights gained should give a person a deeper realization of his/her soul and its nature. In this sense, it is a centralizing experience, for it facilitates greater Self-realization. However, it is simultaneously decentralizing. This is because it causes a person to subtly realize that s/he is merely a cell within a larger life expression, namely humanity as a whole. From the esoteric perspective, humanity is considered one living entity composed of billions of cells, each of which is a human being. And, it is via the World of Meaning that the first glimmering of this is realized within the mind.

From the spiritual perspective, the things that are meaningful in life give added understanding to life. As consciousness expands, our understanding of life and existence increase proportionately. Indeed, the meaningfulness of life deepens at every step upon the evolutionary path. We therefore must examine the events of our lives with an eye to the subtle. We must look more deeply at life events with an understanding that the soul often speaks through circumstance. How this is done is a science unto itself. First and foremost, it requires that one learn to suspend judgment. To recognize a circumstantial message requires added time so that it can be properly sensed within the mind. Premature judgments prevent this from happening. Secondly, sensing the hidden meaning within a situation requires that part of the mind be held in quiet wholeness. Meaning does not emerge through sequential reasoning. Instead, it comes through our ability to hold all the variables (in a given circumstance) within a unitive field of awareness. In short, it is a technique that requires perceiving life in two ways simultaneously. That is, to be alert to the interaction of variables within a given circumstance, while at the same time seeing it as a profound singularity.

Participation in the World of Meaning is an evolving process. Indeed, it takes several incarnations to fully live in such a state. It is a realm of consciousness used by the soul to convey its purpose, and it shapes the underlying patterns of human perception. By so doing, deeper significance is recognized within outer events. When the World of Meaning is entered, a veil is lifted from one’s eyes, and revelation is then conferred. Transcendent truth is thus discovered, meaningful and profound.

Spiritual Truths

Source: https://www.newmessage.org/the-message/volume-5/wisdom-greater-community-volume-1/spiritual-truths

Now we would like to speak about Spiritual Truths. There is much presumption and misunderstanding about very basic things, which makes the direct approach to Knowledge seem more complicated than it needs to be. We speak about the development of Knowledge, relationships and world events in a very direct manner, but people are still very confused because they have assumed that spiritual life, spiritual teachers, spiritual teaching and spiritual ideas must have a certain conformity. Therefore, it is appropriate to talk about Spiritual Truths.
First, it is very important that you realize that there is no absolute truth in physical life. This is very important to understand because absolute truth is reserved for an absolute state of being and physical life, obviously, is not that. So, instead we have relative truth, relative to this state of being.
God is functioning here in a relative reality. It is relative here because it is changing. An absolute reality is an unchanging reality. It is a steady state and completely at peace because it is not going anywhere. You are not in that reality, nor do you even seek it for the most part here because that is not your need. You are not ready for absolute reality. It is not your step in life. You must first accomplish your task here in this relative reality.
When people start to think that God has an absolute truthWhen people start to think that God has an absolute truth for their relative reality, this begins a form of tyranny that is very dangerous and difficult to overcome. Religious tyranny, political tyranny and personal tyranny are evident within people and within societies at large. Attempting to apply an absolute truth to a relative situation produces bondage and slavery and is completely counter productive. Its initial intent may have been well-meaning, but soon it produces violence and attack.
The challenge for each and every one of you is to accept that you are in a stage of development and to try not to rest your sense of identity upon absolutes. You must be open and yet very firm about what you know already. This firmness and openness is the achievement. What has been discovered thus far that you know to be irrevocably true? This you must hold to with great reverence. Yet, it is more a Spiritual Presence than an idea, a deep sense of relationship and direction in life rather than a series of beliefs or postulates.
You cannot approach an absolute God in a relative reality. It does not work because that is not where you are. It is one in ten million people who are prepared for an absolute encounter. This is not the need of humanity. God is not reserved for the one in ten million. God’s Plan includes all and guarantees fulfillment and advancement in this reality that you live in.
The next stage of life beyond the physical realm will be a relative reality as well, but it will be absolute to your needs because relative truth is absolute to your needs. So, do not think it is not meaningful or effective. It is tremendously effective. It is more powerful than anything you can see or imagine and it is moving. It is going somewhere.
What is purpose in life? It is not a definition. It is not adherence to a belief. It is moving with life. It is movement. That’s what makes it relative. It is going from here to there. It is going somewhere. Absolutes are not going anywhere. They have already arrived. There is no further movement. You are not at a place of absolute reality yet. Therefore, your attempt for absolute truth will be self-deceiving and will keep you from the true accomplishment that you could be making now.
What is purpose in life?
Religious tyranny will become very evident in the world in the years to come. This is the result of people holding to an absolute idea in a relative reality. It will breed violence and hatred—everything that is counter productive.
Therefore, if you are serious about developing Knowledge and reaping true satisfaction in this life, you must be very firm but very open. You must adhere to what is known now but not believe that it is the end point. You are in movement from one place to another, so do not become settled on the way things seem to be.
Your future will largely be determined by your ability to respond to events externally and to your own Knowledge internally. You cannot do this if you are basing your life on an absolute idea because the moment you do that you stop. You are not going anywhere now. You are standing by the side of the road holding your sign for the world to see and life will be passing you by, most assuredly, for it is going somewhere. Its destiny is beyond this world because that is where you are going.
You did not come to this world to stay here very long, so you are obviously always returning. From the moment of birth you are returning Homeward. You have come here for two reasons, and these reasons are contradictory: You have come here to hide from God because this is the place where God does not seem to exist, and you have come here to serve God. These reasons are only contradictory because they represent the two aspects of your mind—the part of you that believes you have left God and the part of you that has never left God. The part of you that has never left God can only serve God, for you were created to serve God. It is your joy and ecstasy to serve God, hardly a form of bondage. A true delight, indeed!
But this is your Knowledge; it is not your personal reality. Your personal reality is about hiding from God, and so the world becomes a place where you learn to fill up every moment of time with sensation and stimulation so you do not have to think about God. It is only when this stimulation begins to fail and disappoint you consistently that you turn your attention to Knowledge because after awhile God is really the only thing that is left. It does not matter if God is irrational or if nobody else thinks about God; you will now think about God because there is nothing else to do. You have exhausted all of your substitutes, and so you start to think about God.
You may not necessarily think about God as God, but you will start to think about the qualities that are of God—the desire to serve humanity, the desire for peace over stimulation, the desire for equanimity over excitement, the desire for wholeness and honesty, the desire for movement and progress. This is thinking about God, too.
These are not things you think about if your primary aim is to hide. When you are hiding, you want to forget you are hiding because hiding is fearful and not really fun. You do not want to be fearful all the time, so you try to make hiding fun. But it is not fun, for you are alone and estranged in a very harsh reality that you hope will be kind to you. You hope there is a God, but you hope that you will not meet God today because meeting God today would be too much. But you hope that God is there when you need God. It is like being a child who does not want to be around his or her parents but hopes the parents are there in case trouble arises.
It is fun to run away from home until things get dark and you become hungry. Then you want to go home because all of the motivation to run away has left you now. You seek shelter and comfort and security. But when you come into the world and you become tired and hungry, you cannot go home because you are here. But God has come too! God tags along everywhere. So, you run away and God tags along. You cannot shake God loose. Fortunately, this is true.
You cannot only believe in God and hold, “This is God’s word from this book” or “This is the way God’s reality must be in order for God to be meaningful and good.” It is not enough to simply try to resolve the seeming contradictions about God. God does not need to resolve these contradictions, for God is just God.
Your world is contradictory because it is a hiding place, a place where people go who do not want to know anything. Yet your purpose in being here is to remember what you know and to support others in remembering what they know. When you are hiding, you think someone is going to punish you. You have been bad. It is like running away from home as a little child. You run away and you are afraid to go home because your parents will punish you.
Now you have run away a long way, and it’s very scary to go home. As much as you want to, it is very scary. “Oh, I cannot go home!” This is the root of all of your fear. It is beneath your psychology and so fundamental that to address it directly would separate the many layers of delusion that confront you everyday.
When people begin an earnest development of Knowledge, they begin to encounter their root fear of God. For some reason, they have trouble doing this or that exercise, even though the practices are easy. Or they are forgetful. Or if they feel the Presence, they do not want to feel it for more than a few minutes. It is too much. There is nothing wrong with this. It is simply a time-consuming process to become reacquainted with Home. The more you are reacquainted with Home, the less significance your hiding place has for you, and the more you realize you are here to contribute something, not to get something.
There is very little the world can do for you, but there is a great deal you can do for the world. The only way you can embrace this Spiritual Truth is to have a profound sense of your origin and your destiny, and this cannot merely be appreciated philosophically or theologically. It must be born of profound experience within yourself.
the first Spiritual Truth is that there is no absolute truth here.So, the first Spiritual Truth is that there is no absolute truth here. Do not make an absolute truth, or you will put yourself in bondage and if you teach it, you will put others in bondage as well.
The next Spiritual Truth is that God has already established a Plan and you cannot change it. So, there is a Plan in motion already. Not only can you not change it, you cannot even understand it. For you to understand God’s Plan, you would have to have God’s mind, which at this moment you do not have. It is like little children trying to understand why their parents go away every day to work. You do not understand. You have not achieved that level of participation. A relative reality cannot appreciate an absolute reality, even though the relative reality is moving towards the absolute. You are moving towards the absolute.
People often like to say, “Well, I will be growing and developing forever.” But the more you grow and develop truthfully and not merely in fantasy, the more you will see how difficult and taxing it is, and towards the end of growing and developing, you become very tired of it. You just want to go Home now. The great adventure is over. But this is not a resignation; it is the re-emergence of your true reality within yourself. So, halfway through the journey, you are halfway Home already, and the more you are Home already, the more you want to pull the rest of yourself in with you. And the more you are Home already, the more you will want to pull everyone with you. This is a natural attraction. It is not philosophy or a holy idea. Every little increment of Knowledge that you reclaim, you will naturally want to extend to others. That is all that can be done with it.
The contradiction of living in this world is that it is a hiding place. People are afraid to give and afraid to receive because when you start giving and receiving, the whole idea of hiding begins to dissolve, and you realize that God has caught up with you already.
To your True Mind this is the great reunion. To your personal side, it looks like death and vanquishment. The personal side of your mind is something that you have acquired in being here. It does not know of God. You have to teach it about God like a little child, to assure it that it will be okay. Do not fight it or punish it like a bad child. Do not abuse it for being stupid. It is afraid for its own survival.
Therefore, God has created a Plan already. You are either with it or you are not. It is possible not to be with it. You cannot actually be outside of it, but you can be idle within it, not participating. It is like a big dance. Many people come, but only a few people dance. Everyone else is standing around not knowing what to do. It is a very unhappy situation.
Your ideas about God’s Plan will always fall short of the reality because the reality is too great and too inclusive. It includes everyone. God is very smart. God takes everything that you have made and every reality that you have imagined and sets it all into motion with a great attraction to return Homeward.
Within your own Knowledge you have this attraction. It is the great attraction from the Creator to the Created. If you are moving with it, you will demonstrate extraordinary power and grace in this world, not because you are a special person, but simply because your Knowledge has had the opportunity to shine through. You will still have a personal side and a personal life, but there will be grace with you because grace is being released. Your treasure now is beginning to show.
Let us give the truth about relationshipsLet us go on to another Spiritual Truth. Let us give the truth about relationships. There are two kinds of relationships that are available to you with one another. They reflect the two aspects of mind that you possess. There are relationships for unlearning, and there are relationships for true accomplishment.
Relationships for unlearning are where you come together to commit errors with each other and learn from them. They naturally violate your Knowledge because that is the error. You seek them out because they stimulate you. Your purpose in them is usually to make your hiding more pleasurable and to give you a sense of purpose, direction, involvement and relationship that is naturally lacking in a state of hiding because hiding is very lonely. And so these relationships, which are the predominant relationships in this world, are for unlearning and undoing. They are disappointing, but they are very, very illuminating because they teach you Wisdom and they teach you to value what you know.
The other kind of relationship is for people who know they are going somewhere and who join together to go somewhere together. They are joined because they feel the Presence and because their lives are truly compatible. These relationships are rare, but they are available to everyone. They are for real learning and not for unlearning. Unlearning eliminates things. Real learning adds things. These relationships are for adding, but not just things of this world. They are for cultivating Knowledge and for bringing forth things that have a permanent result. They are not just between a man and a woman and are not exclusive to husband and wife. Their highest expression is devotion, for devotion emanates from Knowledge if it is true. Devotion is not based on personal preference or attachment. It is something that emanates naturally. You do not have to try to be devoted. You either are or you are not. It is okay.
Since God is calling you to go somewhere that you are going anyway, the more you feel you are going somewhere, the more you have real criteria for relationship because relationship is for participation.
Everyone must go through unlearning in relationship, but if this unlearning continues far into adulthood, it limits your opportunity to experience true bonding.
You will give up so little to gain so much. You do not have to be celibate and live in a monastery, but you will need to relinquish many of your ideas because they are inappropriate for true association. There is a certain sadness in giving up ideas, but ideas are so limited and minimal compared to life itself.
There are only three things in life in this worldThis leads to the next Spiritual Truth. There are only three things in life in this world—There are thoughts, there are images and there is Presence. Thoughts, images and Presence. That is it!
As you learn to observe yourself, you will start to see that you are experiencing mostly your thoughts, and you are valuing mostly your images. Self-observation makes this most evident because you see that what you are reacting to is something that is not even there. The more you learn to experience and follow Knowledge in life, the more you value the experience of Presence because Presence teaches you what is actually there. Your thoughts about it and your images of it are secondary.
For instance, perhaps you meet someone you are very attracted to and you decide, “Oh! I have not felt this way in so long. I am going to be with this person. It feels so wonderful!” You have thoughts and you have images, and they are wonderful thoughts and images. You are with this person, and they excite your thoughts and images. Then at some point later on you find out who the other person is, and it’s disappointing. They are not quite as glamorous as your thoughts and images. You were in love with your thoughts and images and discovered the person later.
But when you are with Knowledge, you discover the person first. Whatever thoughts and images are acquired are based upon experience of the person—their Presence, their Being and their Mind. Your relationship is based upon whether you are going to the same place and if you can go together. This is Wisdom in relationship. You cannot fall in love with someone and hope to go in the same direction together. If you are going in opposite directions, then so be it. You may still love them intensely because you love their Presence, but you must set them free to participate in life. You’ll see them later. Remember, this is only a temporary visit here. Back on the other side of things you can reminisce.
So, what you experience in this world are thoughts, images and Presence. There is nothing wrong with thoughts and images except that they dominate people’s experience. You will have thoughts because you have a mind, and you will have images because you have senses, so you cannot eliminate these and be here. But if they predominate, then you will not feel the Presence of anything. You will not feel your own Presence, the Presence of another, the Presence of life or the movement of life. You will not be present for anything. You will be completely absorbed in your own internal process. Therefore, the objective of your true Teachers is to take you out of this self-absorption and to re-engage you meaningfully in life. There is nothing but expectation and disappointment in being involved with your thoughts all the time.
Life is going somewhere. Do not let it go without you. That is my point here. Presence will always move you because it is going somewhere. It is not fantastic images; it is experiencing the Presence of another. It is experiencing someone else’s reality directly, not only intellectually. Then you can look and see if the person who attracts you so strongly is going where you are going because you have a sense of going somewhere.
Most people do not have a sense of going anywhere, and they hope that their romance will provide some direction. And so there are two people not going anywhere waiting for the other to lead the way, hoping circumstances will require them to go somewhere. “Well, if we have many children, that will require us to do something.” That is valid. But for you who have shown interest in Knowledge, it will not be enough to let your circumstances completely dictate your movement in life.
Let us go on to the next Spiritual Truth.Let us go on to the next Spiritual Truth. You are not alone in your efforts to cultivate Knowledge. Members of your Spiritual Family who are inherently related to you are assisting you, both from beyond your visible range and within the world itself. Therefore, do not think you have to rely on your own efforts alone to achieve greatness, which is actually just naturalness.
So, you have Teachers and you have assistance. If you want to be alone with your thoughts, you are free to do so because you can do that in a hiding place. Your mind is your only hiding place. Even this physical world, as difficult as it is, is not really a hiding place. So, the only place you can hide is in your thoughts. If your thoughts begin to open up and clear away a little bit, you will see that there are many people looking at you, very lovingly. This is your Spiritual Family. This is direct experience of relationship. This is life.
The only place you can hide is in your thoughts. You can think from the moment you awake to the moment you sleep and never be outside your thoughts. So, it looks like you are completely alone in your thoughts. It is only when something dramatic happens to you and snaps you out of your thoughts a little bit that you have a moment to experience yourself in life.
Your Teachers are with you, though they may never become known to you in this life. Only if you have been given a calling and have responded to it will their Presence become stronger because you will need to know that their assistance is with you in a very demonstrative way.
Many people will not accept help, and so they must be given gifts without knowing where the gifts come from. Their efforts, if they are truly motivated, will bring them into true relationship anyway. They will realize that what they have done was the product of relationship and not the product of an individual, for individuals do not accomplish anything.
There is no individual creativity in the universe. Creativity is a natural by-product of relationship, whether it is relationship you see or don’t see. “Creative individual” is a contradiction in terminology. There are only creative relationships. Somewhere, someone has connected to something else that is real, inherent and genuine, and this produces a remarkable contribution. This is creativity, and it is very exciting because the individuals involved realize they are part of something greater that is working through them.
True marriage is creative. True friendship is creative. True religion is creative. True work in the world is creative. Why? Because each joins you with something that yields something greater than what you alone could produce.
Now, as I have said, the fundamental fear in all people is a fear of God, a fear that God will catch up with them and beat them up! So, subliminally, God is like the devil who will punish you and persecute you for being so stupid and such a lamehead. Or, there is the belief that when God shows up, you will have to give up everything in the world that is fun and that you enjoy. This represents another form of persecution because God will take it all away and make some kind of unhappy cleric out of you. This is very ridiculous, of course, but it is at the core of most people’s thinking. That is why people accept absolute ideas, but not God.
God’s service is everywhereGod’s service is everywhere. It moves through so many channels. Why does it do this? Because it is a natural force of attraction. It is like gravity. It finds its way through everything. It will rearrange physical reality to accommodate it, not because it is meddling, but simply because it is a natural force that attracts.
What are Spiritual Families but groups of individuals who have joined together out of this attraction and who, in a higher state of reality, will join with other great groups, like rivers joining together on their way to the sea. It is a greater and greater association based upon natural attraction, which at higher levels becomes increasingly powerful.
Here you increasingly become the contributing force that you truly are because there is nothing else to do. You are being reclaimed slowly, but while you are being reclaimed you are also contributing to everyone and everything, and this redeems your own value to yourself. You cannot return to God if you are a stupid idiot. You would be too ashamed. You would not have capacity for the relationship. So, in all stages of your reclamation, you contribute gifts of value and this redeems your value. You must return to God as part of Creation, not as a miserable person. God does not know about miserable persons. God did not create miserable persons, but God will attract the miserable person nonetheless because God is everywhere, and the attraction to God is everywhere. It cannot be escaped forever.
The next Spiritual Truth is that the curriculum that is given on an individual level is quite specific. Many people need a very regimented life with tremendous self-discipline and structure in order to achieve anything, to gather their resources internally and to organize their thinking and affairs. Other people need to give up all regimentation and confront space, nothingness and openness directly.
Everyone is in a hiding place, but God has the key. Different keys fit different locks. How can God know what to do for each person? God does not have to figure out your dilemma. God just attracts you and your dilemma falls apart. That is the genius. That is how life works. It does not need to figure out all of the complexities of your problem and all the issues of your life.
Your Teachers do not stay up nights thinking about how they are going to rescue you from the next error you are about to commit. They are simply with the attraction. They amplify the attraction and they express the attraction. That will undo all of your errors. God is pulling you Home. Even the overwhelming threat of this world and all of its attractions, fears and inducements that seem to dominate every moment of your life are nothing compared to the pull of God.

Human Design System

Source: humandesignamerica.com
Each of us is unique. We are meant to specialize and play specific roles. Our capability for genuine action and self expression comes from an inner truth and strength within each of us. There is potential for great power and magnificence in all of us.

Human Design is a language and system of classifications, visually representing human experience. Its many components represent different aspects of how we function. It names our feelings and offers insights into how different parts of us work.

Individual Designs depict people's unique configurations. We are happy and successful when our interactions and commitments are in alignment with our inherent nature and capabilities. The information in a chart can help us prioritize which internal voices and feelings to listen to.

Each configuration, or Design, has its own Strategy and Authority. Strategy and Authority describe the parts of us that help guide our decision making. The goal of the system is to help people understand themselves, find inner strength and clarity, and to live genuine lives.

Human Design differentiates people using the concepts of Definition and Openness. Definition represents an internal activation in the individual. It brings the potential for consistent development and expression of its qualities. Undefined aspects are receptive. They have the potential to be open and experience the Defined energy of others. When people interact, an exchange takes place. People take in and feel Defined aspects through their open ones.

The Nine Centers

The Nine Centers are represented by nine geometric shapes, and are the primary building blocks of a chart. Centers can be Defined (colored in) or Undefined (left open). Defined and Undefined Centers have different roles. The themes of the centers affect one another, and inform the way they function. The way Centers are Defined and connected to each other determines the Type and Authority of the Design.

There are several categories of Centers. First, there are Pressure Centers which represent the pressure that drives us both physically and mentally. The 2 Pressure Centers are the Head and the Root. Several Centers are classified as Motors; they embody our physical energy to work and be active. The 4 Motors are the Root, Sacral, Heart, and Solar Plexus. Next are Awareness Centers, which represent awareness of ourselves and others and our ability to take in and process information. The three Awareness Centers are the Spleen, Ajna and Solar Plexus.

Mandala

The colored wheel surrounding the Bodygraph is called the Mandala. It is subdivided into 64 partitions that represent Gates. The 64 Gates correspond to the 64 Hexgrams of the I'Ching. Each Gate number has a fixed location in the Bodygraph and the Mandala. The Gates are color coded to match the color of the Center that they are connected to. Each Gate is divided into six sub-sections called Lines. (These are the short notches within the arc of each Gate around the wheel). The inner wheel of the Mandala is sub-divided into the 12 astrological signs.
The Four Types

The Human Design System groups people into one of four categories called Types: Manifestors, Generators, Projectors and Reflectors. There is also a sub-group of Generators called Manifesting Generators. Each Type has a different Strategy to help individuals develop healthy decision making skills and cultivate practices that affirm their unique gifts. Human Design focuses on how the Types interact with one another and explores how understanding their specific roles can help them live happier healthier lives.

Suns of God: The Orion Revelation

By Dr. John Jay Harper -  a clinical hypnotherapist, futurist, medical research scientist, public-speaker and writer with the non-profit corporation American Delphi Academy. A former computer specialist, electronics engineer, and senior mental health counselor with the Department of Defense and a disabled veteran of the U.S. Army, today he is a radio/tv talk show guest in Canada, USA, and UK speaking to our worldwide changes in climate, culture, and consciousness over all else. 

The following article is based on the author’s new book Tranceformers: Shamans of the 21st Century. 

Man is the Measure of all Things.” — Protagoras of Abdera (c .480-410 B.C.)

“The workings of the human body are an analogy for the workings of the universe.” — Leonardo da Vinci (1452 – 1519)

Introduction 

Once upon a time in the outskirts of the Milky Way Galaxy, creatures calling themselves homo sapiens, a Latin term meaning “wise or knowing man,” lived in one of its smaller solar systems on a very small planet they nicknamed “dirt” or Earth.

Ironically, they were not wise, knowing — or unique.

They had simply forgotten their birth origins and destiny as celestial beings of the Orion Nebula, the birthplace of stars, the Suns of God on Earth.

So over the course of centuries, as they gazed into the night sky sitting around campfires yearning for clues, a sign from on high, they told each other creation stories, myths, and performed acts, rituals, to explain why they were in this predicament.

Some religionists said they sinned against a god, in one form or another, a being that had returned to the sky.  That they were now quarantined on Earth until a “savior,” in one form or another, returned as promised at the end-of-time.

Others of these so-called “wise men” known as scientists taught humans were accidents of a blind and dumb gene-generating universe; freaks of nature, that gods and saviors did not even exist.
But then these myths and rituals, especially the ancient symbols used in astrology began to make sense, add-up, with the modern observations of astronomy. One of these homo sapiens named Carl Sagan even mused:”Some 25 million years ago, a Galactic survey ship on a routine visit to the third planet of a relatively common G dwarf star, our Sun, may have noted an interesting and promising evolutionary development: Proconsul, the ancestor of homo sapiens, or modern man.”

Archaeologist, historian, and mythologist also known as D. M. Murdock, conclusively documents that major world religions are in fact founded upon an astro-theology: the story of stars as gods sent down from heaven to earth to save men from ignorance.

The larger realization based upon the overwhelming evidence suggests these humans represented the gods as action heroes on the ground to the people, as she catalogues in her book Suns of God: Krishna, Buddha, and Christ Unveiled. Of course, we have Jesus himself saying: “I have said, you are gods; and all of you are children of the most High.”

Nonetheless, once we saw the creation story focused through the lens of Galileo and later Hubble and Herschel telescopes, the lights came on to full-star power again across the entire spectrum of science and religion theories of origins.

And a whole new way of seeing ourselves not as freaks of nature but as a planned family of genetically engineered, star seeded, celestial beings emerged. Clearly, the occult, or hidden, records collected by esoteric societies were beginning to pay rich dividends too with respect to our relationship to stars.

One of these pioneers, Alice Bailey, reported: “In the secret of the Sun Sirius are hidden the facts of our cosmic evolution, and incidentally, therefore, of our solar system. The Sirius System is always beaming helpful rays to the poor people of Earth who wallow in appalling ignorance, violence, and oppression.”

Suddenly the musings of mystics, shamans, and prophets of every culture made more sense, fit a pattern mirrored by stone structures at sacred sites worldwide; in particular Asia, Egypt, Mexico, England as well as the Hopi Nation in North America and Inca Empire in South America.
Egyptologist Wallis Budge, and others, linked the stars in Sirius, Orion, and Pleiades with emitting spiritual rays of light that “vivify gods, men, cattle, and creeping things … out of the seed of the soul.” Budge even declared, “The mention of Orion and Sothis (Sirius) is interesting, for it shows that at one time the Egyptians believed that these stars were the homes of departed souls.”

This rediscovered truth is straight-forward: We humans were designed to operate on a cosmic larger-than-life scale, as a “superman” mystics called Adam Kadmon, and artist Leonardo Da Vinci portrayed as perfection personified in The Vitruvian Man. That is, our human body was the mathematical mirror-image of the Phi ratio Fibonacci series spiral, the golden mean of the Cosmos.
Overall, we see our self-image in a new light as that of a “superstar,” the Sun of God, in fact, what theologian Matthew Fox calls The Cosmic Christ.

Plato was very clear in his treatise, Timaeus, that God made “souls in equal number with the stars and distributed them, each soul to its several star, and he who should live well for his due span of time should journey back to the habitation of his consort star.”

“Consciousness is King,” proclaimed philosopher of Rome, Plotinus, in the 3rd century A.D.
This then is true hidden knowledge: Stars are conscious beings of light and co-create planets for the development of infinite Christs-in-potential!

Gregory Sams, co-founder of the Harmony/Whole Earth Foods outlets in the United Kingdom, chaos theory expert, and now bestselling author of Sun of God: Consciousness and the Self-Organizing Force that Underlies Everything has it spot on: “This is the greatest cover-up in history!”

In other words, human beings are created to live eternally as physical beings made of sunlight. We are Children of the Sun, and the Sun behind the Sun, the Mother Star Clusters in the Orion Nebula of our Milky Way Galaxy.

The Orion Nebula is the birthplace of our Sun’s solar system and its lifecycle known as World Sun Ages.  The Maya, for example, saw the rebirth of Earth as beginning the Fifth Sun Age on December 22, 2012.

Ancients saw how species are seeded and mutated by starbursts, supernova explosions, solar flares, and Coronal Mass Ejections, or CMEs, as well as advanced civilizations. They saw cross-breeding between gods and men potentially helped evolve new cosmic creatures in an infinite loop of creation, destruction, and recreation: the life, death, and rebirth cycle of Suns of God.
This was hinted in the Holy Bible that such was the case as in Genesis 6:4: “There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.”
Now scientists agree: we are Star Children:

“In a very real sense,” says University of Illinois astrophysicist Larry Smarr, “we are the grandchildren of supernovas.”

Harvard professor of astronomy, Robert Kirshner, says, “Generations of supernovas created the elements we take for granted-the oxygen we breathe, the calcium in our bones, and the iron in your blood are products of the stars.”

Fascinatingly enough, these sacred site ruins that we have turned into tourist traps can now become star map repositories of invaluable star seed information to reclaim our origins and destiny according to many scholars of them today.

And as we dug deeper into the forensic evidence of sacred sites, examined the blood, bone, and stones, so to speak; we decoded the meaning of the 12 signs of the times: the houses, mansions, or constellations the Greeks named Zodiac, or Circle of Animals. Again, it was Jesus who said: “In my Father’s house are many mansions, I go and prepare a place for you.”

So Zodiac signs were used to assign specific energy signatures to stars in the night sky with stones carefully crafted on-the- ground to create a mirror-image of their consciousness traits. This maps the 12 characteristics of constellations. Our own star’s lifecycle through time and eternity in what we know now as a 26,000 year precession of the equinox of The Great Year.

Naturopathic health practitioner Amalia Camateros, proclaimed in her book Spirit of the Stones: A Revival of Earth Wisdom, based upon insights into the Anasazi of the American Southwest: “This knowledge was stored in the rocks as living libraries and kept safe within until a future time.”
Stones are in effect sponges: they absorb and store consciousness that is carried by 12-rays of sunlight. Our human brain has 12 cranial nerves and earth 12 major tectonic plates to process light energy through them too. Needless to say, 12 is a key number to life, death, and rebirth as it defines, partitions, or sectors space itself into 12 signs of the Zodiac.

Perhaps, that is the greatest insights of so-called pagan cultures; they saw space is alive, conscious, with the ebb and flow of subtle solar radiation energy pulsations permeating everything forever. There isn’t anything new under the Sun other than a cosmic recycling program of celestial beings through a mixing and matching of star systems within galaxies.

Pyramids are The Word of God written in Stars and Stone

Distinguished writer Adrian Gilbert, stated this much in his book 2012: Mayan Year of Destiny: “By building a gigantic scale model of Heaven on Earth, they were establishing a psychic link to the stars of Orion/Osiris. Then, by carrying out certain funerary rituals, such as the ‘Opening of the Mouth’ and ‘Weighing of the Heart,’ within the confines of the pyramids, they could assist the pharaoh’s soul in its journey to the land of Osiris: the stars of Orion.”

Alan F. Alford of Walsall, England declares: “Ancient sages believed that the future destiny of mankind lay in a return to the Source, i.e. to God and Heaven. The death of the body, they said, did not mark an end but rather a critical mid-point in the human existence. Those who had the secret knowledge could retrace the path to the Heavenly Source and enter the gates to the lost paradise. The knowing soul would then unite with its primeval body-double and materialize in a remarkably Earth-like world.”

Ultimately we have rediscovered the secrets to reincarnation that were embedded in The Great Pyramid stones at Giza and the tombs in the Valley of the Kings. They and other related sacred site structures all seek to help us recapture our roots in the stars and point us back home to our Twin Earth in the “star nursery” of the Orion Nebula.

What we’ve learned is pyramids were not burial tombs, but time bombs! They speak to the end-time of the Earth’s Shift on its polar axis realigning us with our home among the stars in the 21st Century now.

Indeed, our “god fathers” or Higher Selves are alive in a twin binary star earthlike system of planets defined by star clusters in the vicinity of the Orion, Sirius, and Pleiades constellations.
Robert Temple, the highly-acclaimed investigator of the Dogon tribe cultural myths in Africa, and also a member of the Royal Astronomical Society in England stated forthrightly in his classic text The Sirius Mystery: New Scientific Evidence of Alien Contact 5,000 Years Ago:

“Sirius was, astronomically, the foundation of the entire Egyptian religious system. Its celestial movements determined the Egyptian Calendar, which is even known as the Sothic Calendar.”
Sirius, the Dog Star, is the prime candidate for our Sun’s binary, double, or twin star system.
This insight is shared by archaeo-astronomer Walter Cruttenden, the Executive Director of the Binary Research Institute in Southern California in his book titled Lost Star of Myth and Time and DVD The Great Year.

The Orion Revelation

First and foremost, we look to the Orion Nebula to get oriented in the night sky, as did all the wayfarers on the ground that created the major sacred sites worldwide we have rediscovered.
Indeed NASA has named its new fleet of spacecraft replacing the space shuttle series in 2010, Orion. “Many of its stars have been used for navigation and guided explorers to new worlds for centuries,” says Orion project manager Skip Hatfield.

Orion, “The Hunter” in Greek mythology, is one of the largest constellations of star clusters visible everywhere from Earth. It straddles the celestial equator and is a navigational beacon, a lighthouse, to ships at sea and outer space.

This much we know: Orion, Sirius, and Pleiades are calling us to look up again, but pay attention to the Pyramid Text messages typed in stone on the ground at the Giza plateau outside of Cairo. 
Many scholars have blazed a trail for us to follow back home to these stars, in particular Graham Hancock, author of Fingerprints of the Gods, and Heaven’s Mirror. Also Adrian Gilbert and Robert Bauval, the sojourners tracking Orion’s “three belt stars” in the landmark book The Orion Mystery.
And Zechariah Sitchin in The Earth Chronicles Handbook.  He is an authority on the ancient Sumerian language that predates writing to 3500 B.C. with manuscript fragments speaking to the existence and significance of a Planet “X” that may be in a cycle of eternal return, or binary orbit with Earth.

In his text The 12th Planet published in 1976, Sitchin wrote with respect to extraterrestrial genetic engineering and the human race: “Man is the product of evolution; but modern Man, Homo sapiens, is the product of the ‘gods’.”

Quite clearly we are witnessing a common theme: We are not alone and never have been but we have been lost in outer space that we could not see through with our third eye open. That is what all the mystics, prophets, and shamans have declared as the truth throughout the Dark Ages: We are blind and dumb to inner space now. Philosopher of religion Jeremy Naydler stated in Temple of the Cosmos: The Ancient Egyptian Experience of the Sacred:

“In ancient times, by contrast, inner space was regarded as objective and as existing independently of the human psyche.”

However, it was Egyptologist John Anthony West in his book Serpent in The Sky: The High Wisdom of Ancient Egypt, that solved the riddle of the Sphinx for me with his symbolic insights into the Temple of Man at Luxor.

For in its crumbling ruins, we find carefully crafted stones harmonically calibrated to the sacred geometry of stars and our subtle energy chakra system; and thus our bones and blood are tuned to music of the spheres by them to Orion Nebula.

West confirms that it is dualism, our split-vision between the unconscious and conscious minds that blinds and binds us: “Duality as the call to unchecked chaos and multiplicity is symbolized by the ‘serpent fiend, Apop,’ who devours the souls of the dead and thus denies them reunion with the source [or God].”

Thus we learn that the supreme purpose of pyramids was to open our mind’s eye to starlight.
By example, I include the testimony of Greg Roach, an accomplished computer scientist who had a profound out-of-body vision triggered by a shaft of light in the “immaculate conception room” at the Temple of Seti I in Abydos, after viewing the Flower of Life images for the first time at the Osirion, an underground ceremonial chamber compared by some archaeologists to a Amerindian Kiva in the U.S. desert Southwest.

In his own words, Greg tells us:

“While on an Egyptian Tour visiting the Osirion in Abydos, I had a psyche-shattering experience in the form of a spontaneous, all-encompassing out-of-body vision. After a brief meditation in this Temple, I stood up into a shaft of light that came from an opening in the ceiling. This triggered the most massive change in consciousness I have ever experienced. My sense of the external world fell completely away and I stood in the presence of an ineffable, unexplainable, glory. To my inner eye it took the form of an infinitely recursive living electric fire. I was laughing and crying at the same time. My mind was filled to overflowing with the most remarkable awareness-a glimpse behind the veil and a true experience of the fundamental unity of life.”

Of course, Osiris is the Egyptian Lord of love and the god of the afterlife in Orion and Sirius.
And I had a mountain top experience with the starlight sparkling in Orion’s Nebula in the winter of 2006.

While spending time in the old mining town of Republic, Washington, I happened to gaze up to the three belt stars in Orion. These stars were crystal-clear basking in that below-zero mile-high setting, and I immediately became mesmerized by them. I soon sensed a magnetic power flowing into my mind’s third eye and was stunned by this simple rhyme playing in my head: “Twinkle, twinkle little star how I wonder what you are, like a diamond in the sky?”

Clearly, star alignments coordinates, if not creates, our states-of-consciousness on earth with respect to location and the receptive condition of our whole brain and central nervous system.
In fact, the major point I share in this article is credited to Professor Frederick Mills in Atlanta, Georgia, a man who dedicated 35-years of his life to decoding the Geometry of Divinity (or G.O.D.) symbols employed at sacred sites on Earth and Mars.

Fred had a spontaneous out-of-body experience while a graduate student at Texas Technological University that he attributes to his intense preoccupation with geometric symbols used in human communications theory. In many ways, it was the classic kundalini awakening of cosmic consciousness, yet he found himself looking back at Earth from the distance of our moon.
However, he observed the step-by-step sequence of events and knew that what was happening to him could be replicated for everyone that wanted it. Thus Mills launched into a lifetime search to find the golden mean, the dividing line between consciousness and unconsciousness, the key to trance phenomenon. For he knew that his technique can be used as the template for world peace: The experience of oneness with man, nature, and God.

Overall Mills’ work bridges the gap between inner and outer space through opening the third eye with a unified field of cosmic consciousness as does the work of Roger Penrose in The Emperor’s New Mind and Richard Hoagland in The Monuments of Mars respectively seek to do as well employing a fifth or hyper-dimensional model of physics.

Most recently, Robert and Olivia Temple captured this sacred wisdom of the golden section, the Phi ratio and Fibonacci series, in their textbook The Sphinx Mystery: The Forgotten Origins of the Sanctuary of Anubis, confirming what Mills and I have discussed for a decade. Specifically, the Logos, or the Word of God to the Christian community, is really a reference to this idea the Temple’s and we share in common: “The Logos must be crucified to give the promise of eternal life by his resurrection.”

Previously the Temple’s had asked themselves: “But what is the meaning of the crucifixion? This is the remaining piece of the puzzle. The fact is that the crossbar of the cross represents the major of the upright of the cross divided in golden section, and by combining them … one was portraying the golden section by a symbol, a cross. Early drawings of crosses often had footbars. So the footbar is the minor, the crossbar is the major, and the upright is the sum of the two together. The minor and the major are in a ratio (logos). Crucified on the cross is the Logos himself, Christ.”  
In other words, Christ is the code of consciousness, the keyword, ratio, logos of the golden mean line segment sections of the Cross that Mills experienced consciously during his own crucifixion. His out-of-body “ego death” that is the feeling as one with Christ himself or Osiris to Egyptians or Quetzalcoatl to the Mesoamericans, and so forth. What Mills rediscovered is that we do not die at all because our limited sense of self becomes unlimited in that “Consciousness is King!”

From a science of soul perspective, the larger realization is that pyramids operate on this exact basic geometry set of principles unifying outer and inner space within one’s third eye complex. And this is what the sacred sites were doing by aligning a mountain of stones with specific stars while performing initiating rituals during the seasonal crossings of the equinoxes and solstices: That is, they were crossing themselves in order to resurrect Cosmic Consciousness within them.

They were seeking to yoga or unite in a personal relationship with God again as it was in the Garden of Eden Golden Age.

In a real way, it is possible to build a communication device using earth stones much as we do in an electronic printed-circuit board in our laptop computer only with silicon chips as micro-stones yet configured in the same crystal-lattice matrix. Over and over again we see a Master Technology Plan in Pyramids: a satellite communications network linking sacred-stone sites to starlight solar-power sources overhead to self-empower them with information.

To be clear, the Egyptians were calibrating pyramids to very precise alignments with the Sirius star system, Orion’s belt stars, the “Seven Sisters” of the Pleiades and the four fixed signs, Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius in the Zodiac. But especially was the Great Pyramid at Giza complex coordinated with the pole star Polaris in the 21th century-and we will soon see why: To alert us to the coming pole shift.

Therefore, this orientation of sky-to-ground is not a coincidence, a “trick of light and shadow,” with respect to Orion in particular as well as Sirius.

Native American scholar of the Hopi, Gary A. David, has also mapped Orion to the high desert mesas in the State of Arizona, as he reveals in his books The Orion Zone and Eye of the Phoenix. In a recent article titled Seeing Red: Will Betelgeuse Go Supernova in 2012?, he speculates that “beetle juice,” or Alpha Orionis, may have already in fact exploded with its light impacting our solar system and Earth only now.

Then Moria Timms described the effects of cosmic ray showers in her book Beyond Prophecies and Predictions: “In an instant, quicker than the eye could blink or the phosphene flare in the inner dimensions of the mind, the consciousness of the planet was encoded and imprinted. A superluminal transfer of extragalactic frequencies from deep space impregnated the Earth with the starseeds of neutrinos and radiation. Penetrating to the heart of the Earth’s magnetic core, this jump-start of cosmic energy served to accelerate the vibrational frequency of the life force, preparing us for an unprecedented evolutionary leap.” 


And here is where we add that star-power fuel supply to the fire kindled in the pyramids, literally. For we now have the engineering data analysis report of Chris Dunn provided in his book titled The Giza Power Plant. Dunn found unmistakable residues in the King’s Chamber of hydrogen gas combustion; that is to say, solar power.

But why we must ask; to do what for who and where?

I mean we find no residues of electric power pole lines used to light the cities in these regions; there are no airport runways, no interstate highways, or high-rise office buildings. There are no excavations unearthing an underlying asphalt jungle, in other words.

It is becoming obvious that our ancestors worshipped the stars for a very wise reason then: DNA tune-ups! They were fine-tuning their subtle energy “soul” body matrix, what Egyptians knew as the Ka and Ba twins, to the very same stars from which they came originally and therefore had a natural organic resonance.

Naturally, we are all made of stardust and we process sunlight through our solar-powered cells. We call that cycle of sunlight-processing in plants “photosynthesis” and in fact that is why we eat the plants, and the animals that also eat those plants, to extract the trapped photons of light from them.
Of course, water, H2O, is the supreme source of life, and it too is made of the hydrogen plasma filaments cooked by suns and later condensed into green gaseous atmospheres by living planets. 
So the evidence left behind by pyramids attests to a lifestyle that is organic, shamanic, and one in complete harmonic balance, or resonance, with the solar sunspot cycles of stars in the night sky.
Clearly these stone structures were solar collectors of sunlight, as well as celestial clocks, sunstone calendars calibrated to a 26,000 year cycle of the solstices, and equinoxes, with respect to the Zodiac.
In no uncertain terms, I’m saying sacred sites were designed in accordance with the star chart map of eternal life portrayed in the symbolisms of astrology and alchemy.

One example that speaks to this solar timing-pulse precision in Egypt is The Denderah Zodiac and we know the Mayan Calendar also had a similar purpose, forecasting the future on a galactic, solar, planetary, and personal scale of prediction.

So did the I Ching, the Book of Changes, in Asia.

It may also be the case these oracles, divining tools, were used to track the angle of tilt to our globe between World Sun Ages.  Perhaps, a pole shift is a natural organic cycle, akin to how farmers rotate crops between seasons, leaving one section fallow and seeding the other section. Though this would place one land mass or continent underwater and bringing another up to dry land planting status again.

Author of Pole Shift: Predictions and Prophecies of the Ultimate Disaster, John White, has counseled as early as 1980: “Spiritual traditions warn that we shall reap what we sow.  Psychic traditions offer an explanation of how and why this must be. The many ‘crimes against nature’ that people are perpetrating-over-population, environmental pollution, wasting of nonrenewable resources, nuclear testing-along with ‘crimes against humanity’ such as war, economic exploitation, the imposition of inhumane living conditions, religious persecution, political abridgement of human rights, intolerance and bigotry toward minorities, etc., are all pouring negative thought forms into the planet’s energetic foundation. The result will be geophysical cataclysm: earth changes and a pole shift.”

According to all indigenous cultures, the common denominator that triggers a pole shift is the Sun and its resonant relationship with the Suns behind Our Sun, our Mother Stars within the Galactic Center.

Even human illness is triggered by radical changes in the Sunspot cycles, in particular, viral pandemics brought on by atmospheric changes in climate, that alter jet streams, creating extreme weather patterns and susceptibility to disease.  In the final analysis, life is all about the feedback loop of cosmic consciousness that exists between Earth and Sun.

Sunspots shape the Sun’s own atmosphere, its corona and solar wind; the short-wavelength solar radiation pulses from ultraviolet to X-ray. They regulate frequency of flares, coronal mass ejections, CMEs, and other solar eruptive phenomena, and modulate the flux of high-energy galactic cosmic rays entering our solar system from the Orion Nebula.

So, ready or not, space weather soon becomes earth weather.

Thus the purpose of Egyptian, and Mayan Sun-worship myths and rituals were scientific-not superstition-based upon a well-calculated survival strategy to routinely bring balance back to the North-South polar axis of The World Tree. In plain terms, pyramids are built to the Golden Mean Phi ratio spiral and the Fibonacci number series standards in order to align The Vitruvian Man with The Galactic Cross.

The Vitruvian Man

The Vitruvian Man is one of Leonardo da Vinci’s signature creations that is dated to about 1487 A.D. The design is based upon the notes of Marcus Vitruvius Pollio; a Roman writer, architect, and engineer living 1500 years earlier.  The image captures the human body as perfection in nature, the “measure of all things.”

Da Vinci himself said, “The workings of the human body are an analogy for the workings of the universe.”

We are speaking to the perfect man living in the perfect place called paradise: The Golden Age.
Mythologist Richard Heinberg reminds us in his book Memories and Visions of Paradise: Exploring the Universal Myth of a Lost Golden Age: “As human consciousness lost contact with its internal, heavenly source of power, technology emerged as a power substitute. Its first appearance was as sympathetic magic and as the invocation of spiritual beings to change Nature for human benefit. However, as human awareness became increasingly restricted to the material world, purely mechanical technologies appeared.”

Indeed, sacred site stone megalith monument technologies are all constructed employing the Golden Mean Spiral. Jill Purce, author of The Mystic Spiral says, “The universal spherical Vortex is perhaps the most complete symbol by which we can map our cosmic journey.”

My colleague, Fred Mills, in fact pointed out to me many years ago that The Vitruvian Man held a key insight into mapping the flow of cosmic consciousness through the double-helix spiral of our DNA macromolecule as well as the pyramids on Earth and Mars.

That is, the so-called Face on Mars and the pyramid complex on its Cydonia plateau mirror the Great Pyramid complex on the Giza plateau as the same geometry is encoded in these structures and The Vitruvian Man. You can overlay this man to the monument; those same angles, ratios, proportions, of the buildings are the human body in all its extraterrestrial glory in other words!

Clearly, there is a message in the fact that Cairo translates to an Egyptian word for Mars as well.
It seems that once we connect-the-dots we witness that we are being invited to a family reunion of star-seeded children of the Suns of God.   

Investigative mythologist William Henry wrote an article titled Christ’s Cosmic Wormhole. In this third eye-opening treatise, he surveys the history of an instrument of space-travel known as the “djed column” or “Pillar of God.”

He says that this is a forty-five foot tall golden-colored device located in “Temple complexes throughout the ancient world including Egypt and Solomon’s Temple.” Henry speculates the Pillar of God was used in a magical way to open up a vortex spiral, a tunnel into space-time realms throughout the universe.

Now a British academic writer in religious studies and classical philosophy, Dr. Jeremy Naydler, author of Temple of the Cosmos and Shaman Wisdom in the Pyramid Texts, an expert in deciphering Egyptian glyphs and scripts from a mystical, shamanic perspective, says virtually the same thing: “The raising up of the djed column also symbolized the rebirth of the soul. For the Egyptians, the flow of life-giving forces into the world of nature was dependent upon the resurrection of Osiris ‘on the other side’ in the spiritual realm of the Dwat.”

That spiritual realm is centered upon, as is the Great Pyramid, the belt stars of Orion Nebula.
Overall, we are looking at life-enhancing rituals that invoked the sensations of oneness, unity or cosmic consciousness here and now; the heavenly state-of-feeling connected testified to by all mystics, prophets, and shamans as the end-goal of creation: bringing Heaven to Earth.

Again, Richard Heinberg speaks to this desired state in Memories and Visions of Paradise:
“The Hopi legend of the First People says that they ‘felt as one and understood one another without talking.’ The original mind seems to have been a kind of living, pulsating web of telepathic interconnectedness, through the strands of which flowed a current of universal love.”

In what the Egyptians called “Zep Tepi, the First Time in Orion,” they could communicate telepathically with our mirror-image Twin Earth until the electromagnetic poles of the earth shifted, flipped the light switch off in our pineal gland, and we found ourselves in the Dark Ages-once again.
That is, our earth’s ground-to-sky orientation to the Orion Nebula lost its calibration timing-signal, knocking us off the celestial equator centerline with it and out-of-touch with home base. We then suffered a catastrophic “fall from grace” and a failure to communicate with Mission Control!
We have been in the dark ever since unless a mystic, prophet, or shaman would share insights with us. This fact is illustrated convincingly by anthropologist Jeremy Narby in The Cosmic Serpent: DNA and the Origins of Knowledge.

That is why this multi-dimensional vision of reality was sought after in every culture using substitutes such as alcohol, tobacco, and potent mood-modifying as well as mind-altering drugs made of mushrooms, medicinal herbs such as ayahuasca tea vines, and marijuana plants.

Today this third eye open vision is triggered clinically by using hallucinogens containing DMT, Dimethyltriptamine to flood the pineal gland as has been well-documented by psychiatrist Rick Strassman in his text DMT: The Spirit Molecule.

This then is the spaceflight mission of The Vitruvian Man: To restore heaven on earth consciously in a renewed Garden of Eden. But as we know evolution is a brutal process and it will take our best and brightest efforts to survive the Polaris pole shift of the ages into Aquarius.

Indeed, Our Global Brain is being initiated into the mysteries of cosmic consciousness today as geo-scientist Gregg Braden conveyed in Awakening to Zero-Point: The Collective Initiation and Dr. Jose Arquelles alerted us in The Mayan Factor: The Path Beyond Technology: “The octahedral crystal-two tetrahedra joined together-is the radio-gyroscope holding the harmonic resonance of the Earth in its orbit. The crystal core catches or traps the galactic beams attracted to Earth by mutual resonance.”

However, we remain blind and dumb as to the coming Earth Changes for the most part. Politicians and the mass media have our guts all twisted-up into knots over saving the economy when it’s the ecology that will save our soul stupid!

We are the geometry, the ratio, Logos of the Word made flesh in the accelerating evolutionary spiral of a galactic-level mutation; biologically this is called a genetic “transposition burst” that is rewriting the non-coding or “junk” language of light codes within DNA.

This is a time of galactic genetic engineering, a cleansing cycle of enhancement as our sense of consciousness is reprogrammed by radiant bursts of star light energy in a new World Sun Age. Again, we call these magnetic pulses of information biophotons; they are signals from stars that communicate cell-to-cell throughout the entire lifecycle of our light body and beyond to the zero-point field.

In other words, we are immortal celestial beings of light right now made of microscopic drops of DNA that are liquid-crystals of sunlight! But when we cannot see creation firsthand at the level of the biophotons through the lens of our third eye, we see only shadows of reality as portrayed symbolically by the images seen on the walls of Plato’s Cave.

Hence, we see the severe clashes of cultures during these times of major earth changes in consciousness today especially. For we truthfully cannot see third-eye to eye because the language of the birds-the telepathic symbols used to communicate-have been scrambled by the last pole shift, the metaphoric collapse of the Tower of Babel or Pillar of God.

Thus we have to resort to reports from the mountain-top experiences of mystics, prophets, and shamans as our saviors: From Meru to Olympus to Sinai to Mount of Olives to the Oracles of Delphi.
Yet there is hope because not only are the pyramids and sacred site ruins still resonant with this truth but the crop circles seek to revitalize our “dead” memories as elegantly retold by graphic design artist Freddy Silva in Secrets in the Fields: The Science and Mysticism of Crop Circles.

More and more these cryptograms in cereal grains speak to our birthplace among the stars. Whether we examine Egyptian and Mayan hieroglyphs, the myths of Hopi Nation in the Southwestern United States, or crop circle images, we find a common theme in them all: the Hero Twins as binary star companions.

Indeed the idea that we are mirror-images of Christ is a major unifying theme of the Gnostic Gospel of Thomas. In that original text it is written that Jesus, a son of the Sun of God, had a twin brother named Judas Thomas Didymus, and even that is a play on words for twins. For both Thomas and Didymus mean twin, so Jesus supposedly had a twin brother named “twin-twin.”

That is a dead give-away from religion as to the fact that we are clones of Christ and come from the same star seed source in the Orion Nebula.

Robert Temple learned this truth from the Dogon tribe in Africa with respect to Nommo: “The parallels with Christ are extraordinary, even extending to Nommo being crucified on a tree, and forming a Eucharistic meal for humanity and then being resurrected.” The genesis legends of creation are focused on salvation, thus begin and end with a divine pairing of Hero Twins: One saved and one sent to save the other’s twin soul brother from a life of hell.

Indeed, the evidence is overwhelming for a Binary Soul Doctrine, or BSD.

Foremost authority on BSD, Peter Novak, documents in a trilogy of texts how he has rediscovered The Lost Secret of Death, Our Divided Souls, and the Afterlife: that if we live without “knowing” the reality of hells and heavens and how to navigate through these realms we get trapped in them once our soul-our conscious and unconscious mind-divides, separates, or splits from our physical body again at its time of death.

This is of course the focus of The Tibetan Book of the Dead. The chants, prayers are to awaken the soul to its situation post-mortem and send it to its eternal home in the sky, or heaven, or as I am suggesting back to the Orion Nebula: our original birthplace that we seek to mirror on earth with sacred site structures, myths, and rituals.

This truth then is what the Gospel of Thomas declared was the meaning to the admonition of Jesus “to make the two, one again.” Our reward for doing so he said was clearly worth our best efforts for in the end “Whoever finds the interpretation of these sayings shall not taste death.”

That is, upon death our soul’s mind will not split itself in two again. Our intellect and affect, our thoughts and feelings, or memories, will not fragment and need to be retrieved from the “pit” we call hell. We can focus our whole integrated mind on returning to Twin Earth through the tunnel-of-light that will open to us as those near-death experiencers that I have interviewed have in fact shared with me is true.

The difference in life, and death, is all about Gnosis: Knowing the truth that will set us free!
In fact, the “pit” in the bottom of the Great Pyramid recreated the dark unknowing of hades, the hell of unconsciousness; its aimless, mindless, soulless wanderings in the after-death realms, claimed author of the comprehensive text on this insight, Decoding The Great Pyramid by Peter Lemesurier.
So the rituals that took place in this specific pyramid complex with its pit, and the ascending Queen to King’s Chamber were focused on resurrecting the “initiate” into remembrance. It was, in no uncertain terms, a shamanic soul retrieval or reincarnation technology that we also need to understand now.

Nor we do not want to lose our way in this earth’s heavens that are floating-freely within the magnetosphere, its fields of dreams, and forget to travel through the looking glass time-tunnel of light consciously that opens upon death into our mirror-image earthlike twin world in the Orion Nebula.
Once more we see that our “failure to communicate” honestly with our selves and each other as well as our binary twin star soul double is the larger plan of salvation.

For we star children can use our life-line to phone home telepathically!

Itzhak Bentov, a biomedical researcher, writes in Stalking the Wild Pendulum: On the Mechanics of Consciousness, “We may say now that in deep meditation the human being and the planet system start resonating at a very long wavelength of about 40,000 kilometers. It is the ideal medium for conveying a telepathic signal.”

Our mind is the Mind of Mother Earth, but what happens to a planet and its people that do not link-up telepathically fast enough, achieve a unified field of mind, co-existence and harmony?

We suffer a severe electromagnetic pole shift due to the “unnatural disasters” we’ve created militarily that unbalanced the organic flow of light energy pulsating around and through the trunk of The World Tree. In the end, we find we have weakened the protective sheath of the magnetosphere that shielded our globe from the lethal doses of gamma-radiation mutations.

That is, we experience the purifying fire of the galactic and solar killing field. Indeed, we must restore environmental balance or we will be recycled in large numbers due to a nuclear catastrophe that triggers a war-ending pole shift is what the scriptures and shamans of every civilization tell us in one way or another.

This worst-case scenario has happened before according to the Sumerian scholar Zechariah Sitchin, declaring “The audacious idea of protecting a planet thermally by creating a shield of particles in its upper atmosphere is not as revolutionary as it seems. It was, I wrote in my 1976 book The Twelfth Planet, exactly the reason why the Anunnaki-‘Those who from Heaven to Earth came’-had come here some 450,000 years ago from their planet Nibiru.”

He adds: “On Nibiru — ‘Planet X’ of our Solar System – the problem was the opposite one: Loss of internally generated heat due to a dwindling atmosphere, brought about by natural causes and nuclear wars. Nibiru’s scientists, I wrote, concluded that the only way to save life on their planet was to create a shield of gold particles in their upper atmosphere. It was in search of the needed gold that the ‘gods’ of the ancient peoples had come to Earth.”

For Earth, the showstopper is of course an all-out nuclear war, WWIII, known as the Battle of Armageddon, and that is why we focus on the City of Peace, Jerusalem, to see if the global scales of justice will be rebalanced by 2012-or we allow the wheels to fly off the axis of The World Tree.
Time will tell the tale once and for all very, very soon.

There are indeed many reliable sources not the least of which are the near-death experiences that dovetail with my research into Amerindian, Biblical, Egyptian and Mayan End-Time prophecies correlated with massive Earth Changes. One of the pioneers into NDE visions is Dr. Kenneth Ring, a social psychologist, who summarized the message of them to us as follows:

“There is, first of all, a sense of having total knowledge, but specifically one is aware of seeing the entirety of the earth’s evolution and history, from the beginning to the end of time.”

“The future scenario, however, is usually of short duration, seldom extending much beyond the beginning of the twenty-first century. The individual reports that … there will be an increasing incidence of earthquakes, volcanic activity and generally massive geophysical changes.”
“There will be resultant disturbances in weather patterns and food supplies. The world economic system will collapse, and the possibility of nuclear war of accident is very great but respondents are not agreed on whether a nuclear catastrophe will occur.”

“All of these events are transitional rather than ultimate, however, and they will be followed by a new era in human history, marked by human brotherhood, universal love and world peace. Though many will die, the earth will live.”

In fact, according to some near-death experiencers that I have consulted such as Ned Dougherty, the cause of earth’s catastrophes is consistent: “Every act of destruction of God’s environment on Earth multiplied into destructive forces of nature-earthquakes, floods, pestilence.” Equally, he was shown by a being of light in an Egyptian Temple while in what he saw was the Orion constellation that our planet’s poles will shift or tilt. He reports, “a shifting of the Earth’s axis will create dramatic climatic changes.”

Dougherty says further, “During my ‘death’ experience, I had been told that humankind would evolve into a new and more spiritually transformed race of beings. Perhaps God would bestow upon mankind the ability to communicate telepathically, so that human beings could only then communicate honestly with each other.”

In addition, we have the NDE testimony of Reverend Howard Storm who learned from beings of light hovering outside the center of a galaxy what our new heaven and new earth will be like for those alive then: “Everybody was a student of Nature, which they knew intimately and with which they could communicate, knowing the sensations and vibration of every part of creation. People explored outer space without moving an inch. People communicated telepathically with everyone on Earth and had relationships with intelligent beings on other worlds.”

Yet Mayan scholar John Major Jenkins understands my immediate concerns clearly and forcefully, commenting in Pyramid of Fire: The Lost Aztec Codex: “The Greek writer Seneca … gives more details on the Babylonian World Age doctrine, saying that the world is alternately destroyed by flood or fire when the planets line up in Capricorn or Cancer. Such a statement implies that global destructions occur at the two extreme poles of the Great Year of precession.”

Russian psychiatrist Immanuel Velikovsky, co-founder of the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and author of Worlds in Collision declared destruction comes when “Two celestial bodies have been attracted one to each other. The inner masses of the Earth were pushed to the periphery. The Earth, with its rotational movement disturbed, started to warm.”

Indeed, it is no coincidence that Mark Vidler in his book The Star Mirror: The Extraordinary Discovery of The True Reflection Between Heaven and Earth reports: “All the pyramids of the Old Kingdom have a shaft oriented to the polar region in the sky. This is one axis of the ‘mill wheel’ of the heavens and the arrival of a brilliant star at this point suggests that the heavenly axis is ‘heating up.'”
Vidler adds: “In Hamlet’s Mill, Giorgio de Santillana and Hertha von Deschend recover an abundance of evidence confirming the ancient preoccupation with this axis on the celestial sphere and its association with a predicted Earth Shift.”

Specifically, Mark Vidler has performed years of careful research into the location of pyramids as gateways to stars. He correlates “stars to mountains,” creating a crystal-clear sky-to-ground map that mirrors the geometry of the Great Pyramid. Interestingly, and prophetically, he reveals, “We are told that Polaris is an omen of global shift and have seen the ancient Egyptian murals depicting the sun taking a violent leap when it arrives on the raised limb of Orion.”

That is to confirm, we will come under the cosmic ray gun of extremely intense Coronal Mass Ejections from our Sun. These galactic gamma-ray bursts are of concern to astrophysicist Paul LaViolette as he put forth in his book rightly titled Earth Under Fire because of interstellar dust clouds that are creating a thermal blanket around the Sun and cause it to overheat and explode violently in spasms of boiling plasma, CMEs, some of these aimed directly at Earth.
Adrian Gilbert understands as well, and reiterates, “As I have said, the southern star gate is of principle importance because it is also aligned with the center of our galaxy. What this means in practice is that on 21 December 2012, any person observing the Sun will also be looking directly toward the core of the Milky Way: the place where astronomers say there is a black hole with a mass some three hundred million times that of our Sun.”

In summary, in the Apocalypse of John, also known as the Book of Revelation, we are warned that our world will be cast into a solar furnace, a “lake of fire” at the end-of-time. This scenario is in fact what Lou Famoso saw during his near-death, out-of-body experience to be true from the perspective of the Orion Nebula. He saw two balls of fire roar past him headed for our Sun. Then a HUGE CME erupted from it and headed straight for Earth. The result is an estimated 45-degree Pole Shift with simultaneous cataclysmic earthquakes, tsunamis, the sinking of old and rising of new continents, and the explosion of volcanoes on the Ring of Fire. So that we are not caught unawares, blind and dumb, an Angel he identified as Gabriel gave Mr. Famoso the following message to take back to us, and in closing I share that with you now:

“Look to Orion and you will know when the new world will come.”
“The day will come when, after harnessing space, the winds, the tides, gravitation, we shall harness for God the energies of love. And, on that day, for the second time in the history of the world, humankind will have discovered fire.” -Pierre Teilhard de Chardin (1881-1955)
