Since when can the weatherman predict the weather, let alone the future!

Emmet Brown

Since the future has not yet been determined, we thought it would be fun to start a campaign to change the weather.

We can’t change the weather you say? Then there should be no harm in doing the following!

What you can do

Meditate

Each day spend a few minutes meditating. This meditation can be done any time of day, with sunrise and solar noon being ideal times.

When you are ready return to your normal activities sure that the universe is already moving to provide clear skies for the eclipse.

Will you help?

Meditation and prayer have been shown to alter reality. It’s not supernatural; it’s esoteric science.

Now what do you say? Let’s see if we can magic up clear skies for the eclipse!

Solar Eclipses

Solar eclipses don’t happen every day. They don’t even happen every year. In fact, from 1996 until 2012 there were no total, annular or partial eclipses visible from North America. But that has changed in the last few years.

Total Solar Eclipse 2024

If you have been anywhere around civilization in the last few months you have probably heard that there is a total solar eclipse in the near future. On April 8, 2024, parts of North America will gaze to the sky to see a total solar eclipse. The path of totality begins over Mexico, extends through Texas to the northeast, leaving the continent through Vermont, Maine and finally exit the North American viewing area over the Gulf of St Lawrence in Quebec.

Eclipses are cool and all, but what makes this eclipse noteworthy? For starters, it is not the first solar eclipse in recent years.

Total Solar Eclipse 2017

Prior to the world losing its collective mind with the COVID plandemic, there was another total solar eclipse on August 21, 2017. This eclipse was entirely over the United States with the path of totality running from Oregon across southern Illinois and through South Carolina. The path of this eclipse crosses the path of the other eclipse in southern Illinois.

Types of Eclipses

NASA’s JPL tells us that there are three types of solar eclipses; partial, annular and total.

In addition to the two total eclipses in 2017 and 2024, there have been two annular eclipses as well. You can see from the picture above that an annular eclipse is a nearly total eclipse, but the sun is not completely eclipsed.

Two annular eclipses have occurred over the United States; one in October 2023 that spanned from Texas back to Oregon, and one on June 10, 2021 over parts of Canada.

Other Eclipses

In the interest of full disclosure, eclipses do happen regularly all around the world.

So what’s the big deal?

To this point we have discussed the eclipse from a purely modern, purely physical perspective. But since we are the Metaphysical Family, we looked at a few other things that would be happening in the sky that day.

Devil’s Comet

Comet 12P/Pons-Brooks, also known as “The Devil’s Comet” will be passing near Earth on the day of the eclipse. Astronomers tell us that there is nothing to worry about the ten mile wide ball of rock and ice because the comet will be no closer than 1.5 AU (the distance from the Earth to the Sun) as it passes us on April 24, about two weeks after the eclipse.

The comet orbits the Sun every 71.2 years. People familiar with the precession of The Great Year may find this number noteworthy.

Rapture, Indiana

People of the Christian faith sometimes refer to something called The Rapture. In short, those faithful to this tradition believe that “The Rapture” is part of the end of days and is the time when the faithful (living and dead) will be called to live with their god in the clouds. What does this have to do with the eclipse? Perhaps nothing, but there are Christians online who believe that this eclipse may be an event of Biblical proportions.

We recently learned of a town in Indiana named Rapture. As it happens, Rapture Indiana is the only place on planet Earth in 2024 with that name.

As it also happens, Rapture Indiana is also in the paths of both the 2017 total eclipse, and the 2024 total eclipse. Because of this, it seemed like a reasonable place to launch an investigation into the sky on the day of April 8, 2024 in Rapture, Indiana. Here is what we found.

Totality as a Natal Chart

For those who are not astrologers, watch the following video. We made this video using the wonderful (and free!) planetary software Stellarium available at https://stellarium.org.

Council of the Old Gods

In case you missed it, there will be a several planetary conjunctions during the period of the eclipse.

This is the sky at the moment of the eclipse as seen from Rapture, Indiana, according to Stellarium. Ladies and gentlemen; the Council of the Old Gods. All of the original seven wanderers of the old world will be above the horizon and in a nearly straight line on the ecliptic as the eclipse reaches totality.

That’s not the slightest bit ominous, except that …

Solar Cycle

Our Sun has periodic cycles. These cycles last about 11 years. Our Sun was in the low part of its solar cycle when the eclipse of 2017 moved across North America. For the Solar Eclipse 2024 our Sun will be in the peak of its solar cycle. This is why we have been hearing more and more reports of large M class flares, and even X class flares.

We know that solar flares can bring chaos to Earth’s more modern inventions, and experts have been working on EMP shielding with varying levels of success for as long as we have had electronics. That’s great and all, but I wonder if the people who build such things have a proper understanding of that massive source of energy hanging in our sky. Carrington Event, anyone?

The Carrington event happened during a mediocre, ho-hum solar cycle… It came out of nowhere, so we just don’t know when something like that is going to happen again.

Paul Kintner, Cornell University

A 2012 Connection?

A man named Graham Hancock has an interesting theory. An insufficient summary: Most people misunderstand why the Mayan calendar ends in 2012. It is not a reference to that specific year, but rather, that the end of the calendar marks the period of time in which our Earth will be in great danger – one arc minute of The Great Year – ~72 years. The calendar ends, so the theory goes, to mark a time in which the Earth will be passing through a place in The Great Year in which life on Earth could be greatly impacted, if not destroyed entirely.

They knew this because they had knowledge from long ago about a similar event. This knowledge came from a civilization lost to history, but retained through the Mayan people. This event happened between 11,000 and 12,000 before present. Hancock and others postulate that the event involved a comet or other impact event over North America which caused the ice cap to melt in a very short time. This rapid melting caused the worldwide flood described in the myths and legends of most every ancient culture.

For a brief introduction, watch the following video. For a more, read Mr. Hancock’s books, and his website.

The Great Year in motion

Going back to our Sun for a moment, Doctor Robert Schock, PhD (Yale) and Geologist at Boston University has a very interesting theory about what caused the end to the last ice age. He takes a slightly different view from Mr. Hancock, and instead postulates that the end of the last ice age was most likely caused by an extreme Solar eruption. Mr. Schock goes into detail in his book, Forgotten Civilization – New Discoveries on the Solar-Induced Dark Age

Meanwhile, at the LHC

(Click here to view the video)

What’s being done with the LHC is most unsettling to those with occult and/or alchemical training in the same way that the atomic bomb is unsettling. Both come from the same black magick. Myth tells us over and over again of man and his attempts to become too much like the Gods, reaching too far into heaven, and the often very severe punishment for the offense.

What does it all mean!?

So what does all this mean? The answer will depend on how you view this universe that we call home for this place in time.

Time is the water, Charlie. Life is just the bridge that it flows under.

Howard Bowditch

There are traditions from a time not long ago that state that the planets are not lifeless balls of rock and gas, as the experts with the telescopes inform us. Instead these traditions hold that these planets are something else.

In ancient Greece – a civilization we still admire today – the wanderers, as they were called, are either the literal bodies of gods they’re named after, or at least the expression of those personalities into our solar system. Other traditions hold that they are the physical representation of eternal forces, the names of which change as human language changes. And yes, there are even traditions in which our Sun is a portal to other dimensions, other solar systems, or both. The ancient Egyptians, for example, held that one possible afterlife for a pharoh was to become a new star, reigning over an entire solar system.

Gurdjeff’s “The Forth Way” as explained by P. D. Ospensky in “In Search of the Miraculous” holds an interesting cosmology. Another insufficient summary: There is a universal creating logos – the “word of god” that created our universe. Not the Pauline Christian notion of “logos” put forth by those who interpret the first chapter of the New Testament epistle of John in a certain way. Closer to the Hindu mantra “OM”. That top level logos divides into rays and solidifies into various sub-logi, manifesting in the physical world as stars like our Sun. This sub-logos has an intelligence as well as a feedback loop from planet Earth. If this is true, the Sun is alive, and sentient, though not in the same way that the average walking dead man is.

Whether Earth is a place where we incarnate to experience and learn, a prison where we incarnate to mine alien gold, or just a big ball of rocks spinning through the cosmos carrying the accidental results of the greatest genetic accident ever imagined, there is a long history on this planet. This history tells of angry gods who live in places in the sky. The gods occasionally come down from the sky to teach us lessons, and they are sometimes very harsh lessons. When things get completely out of hand, the gods unleash a cataclysm and kill most of the people on Earth.

Sam has been of the personal opinion that “the Sun is angry with us” for the last several years, and it has increased much more since 2021. Our Sun seems brighter than it did seven years ago, and hotter than it did seven years ago. Sam can not confirm this with personally collected data of temperatures or UV indexes, but only anecdotal evidence. We would be very interested in the results of any such tabulation from (uncorrected!) weather data.

Maybe nothing will happen. Maybe there is nothing more to see than balls of matter moving in the sky. Maybe the Solar Eclipse 2024 even will be a non-event. And maybe seven is just another number.

Sam remembers a time in 1990 when a seismologist, Iben Browning, predicted that the New Madrid Fault line in Missouri had a 50/50 chance of erupting in a massive earthquake. It did not, but people were sent into a panic over the news. While it didn’t happen, it’s worth noting what experts believe would happen, should such an earthquake occur.

This event will take place over the intersection of the last two total eclipses, near a place called Rapture, right next door to an active seismic zone that is long overdue for a major shake-up, in a country that seems bent on destroying the memory of the old gods and religion in general. If the old “myths” are true, the sky over North America on April 8, 2024 is a stage set for something spectacular, awesome, terrifying and possibly cataclysmic.

It might be a good time to get right with your personal God, just in case.

The post Solar Eclipse 2024 – An eclipse, and so much more appeared first on Metaphysical Family.

When we started our journey we were so optimistic. The road was wide open and we were free to go wherever the winds blew us.

Our basic plan was to travel to the North East to visit with family for the summer.

From there we planned to travel south along the east coast, then west across the Great Smokey Mountains to Missouri for a stopover around Thanksgiving. November in Missouri starts to feel like winter, so we hitched up and headed south to Texas for the winter.

We spent New Years at Magnolia Beach in Texas. What a change from our winter in 2021!

But it wasn’t all fun.

There were nearly constant RV repairs. It seemed like we were still in the “shakedown” phase well into July when the black tank vent suddenly became taller. Water leaks were a constant issue. We had to replace the factory provided China bomb tires, thankfully before they blew out. You may have noticed that our posts about our RV far outnumber our travel or metaphysical posts.

In January of this year, while we were busy repairing the water leak in the back wall of the RV, we found that the RV had developed a stress fracture in the sidewall.

We had planned to leave Texas shortly after New Years to begin our trek across the southwest. We were going to see the Marfa lights, Guadalupe Mountain, Carsbad Caverns, Roswell, White Sands, City of Rocks, the Grand Canyon and more before turning north into Utah. Instead we contacted Forest River about our sidewall issue, and then spent all of February and March bouncing around the Houston area visiting repair centers.

When Forest River denied any responsibility for our RV in April we decided to have the RV diagnosed independent of Forest River, but at one of their authorized repair centers. We had to leave the RV at the shop for two weeks, which meant a new level of homelessness that we were not at all prepared for. With no other option we took out a two week rental through Airbnb in Galveston. Why Galveston? Because Houston is, well … Houston.

We had always planned to be on the road for at least one year, but also regularly talked about being on the road for two or three years. Of course we accounted for one constant in that – having the RV! This episode made us realize how unprepared we were in the event that the RV was unavailable. Not just because of Forest River’s apparent lack of quality control, but for anything. Where would we go if someone hit the RV and it had to go to the shop for a month, or longer?

Before we hit the road we sold our sticks and bricks, but purchased a small parcel of land nearby. We intended to use the land as “home base” as it has power, water and sewer already on the property, making it a fine place to park an RV. Provided that we had the RV.

So as we celebrate our one year “nomadaversary”, we are drawing up floorplans to build an off-grid cabin on the property that we own. We have realized that we need a proper home base because our RV is broken, and getting it replaced is going to take a while. We do not feel that we can ignore the issue and keep using the RV because of the signs of other structural problems which have begun to develop.

This is not the end for our RV adventures, but the the direction of this blog will be changing in the coming months as we build our home base. We plan to do all of the work ourselves. We have built smaller buildings, but this will be our most ambitious project yet.

We hope you will join us as we embark on this newest chapter in the wild adventure that is our lives!

The post One Year Nomadaversary appeared first on Metaphysical Family.

The occult and secret societies are as old as human history. From the symbolism of ancient Egyptian temples down to the symbols on United States currency, occultism and secret societies have shaped every corner of our modern world.

There are many so-called secret societies operating in the Americas today. Secret is relative as these organizations are usually organized into legal corporations, and membership is generally open to all who apply. An incomplete list of famous “secret” organizations would include the Freemasons, The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, Builders of the Adytum, the Ordo Templi Orientis, and certainly not least, the Rosicrucians.

You may have heard of Ancient Mystical Order Rosae Crucis or AMORC. But did you know that there is another older, more mysterious order of Rosicrucianism in the united States?

Beverly Hall Corporation

Last year we became aware of a Rosicrucian organization in Pennsylvania that claims a history as old as the united States. Tucked away in the quiet little town of Quakertown, Pennsylvania sits the campus of the Beverly Hall Corporation. Beverly Hall Corporation is the legal organization for the affairs and various philanthropic efforts the Fraternitas Rosæ Crucis and the Church of Illumination.

The Fraternitas Rosæ Crucis is a “secret” organization which has been operating in the United States since the time of Benjamin Franklin and George Washington, both of which were members of the fraternity. You may notice a few more names from history on the large pyramid monument.

The campus is mostly open to visitors. Some buildings are not open to the public as they are private residences or office space. The open areas and memorial garden were open to the public when we visited in late summer, 2022.

The Church of Illumination

Also on the grounds is the Church of Illumination chapel.

We visited the Beverly Hall grounds on a Sunday so that we could attend their church service. We had viewed a couple of their online sermons to know what to expect. There were no hymns sung by the congregants, but it was an otherwise fairly standard church gathering. There was a sermon, prayers and a Rosicrucian version of the eucharist communion.

You can read more about the fundamental tenets of the Church of Illumination on their website. Topics include The Divine Law; The Soul’s Journey to Illumination; Jesus, the Christ; Gratitude; Healing and much more. Protestant Christians will find these topics addressed from a very different perspective than those more heavily influenced by Irenaeus of Lyon. Some might find it a refreshing change of pace.

Rosicrucianism in the united States

Beverly Hall consists of several other buildings on the campus. The Philosophical Publishing company is located on the grounds along with the Clymer Healing Center, a medical practice. The academy building houses the organization’s library. Two buildings devoted to housing provide accommodation for up to 28 people on pilgrimage to Beverly Hall.

The Fraternitas Rosæ Crucis offer spiritual training to those who seek it through their School of Soul Science and Æth Priesthood programs. These courses of training promise to help the aspirant reach their full potential as a completely realized human being. The training in these courses is the “secret” of this secret society; both courses are bound by strict oaths of secrecy. This secrecy includes whether or not a person is or is not a student.

Pay a visit to Beverly Hall for a glimpse of authentic Rosicrucianism in The United States. While you are there remember that people come to this place to study and reflect on the mysteries of life and the universe. Be quiet and courteous, and remain conscious of where you are.

The Pattern on the Trestleboard comes to us from the works of Dr. Paul Foster Case. Dr. Case wrote many books in his career including his “Tarot – A Key to the Wisdom of the Ages”. This book is the first place I can recall reading these lines, but they have resonated with us for many years.

In 1922, Dr. Case founded his mystery school, Builders of the Adytum. BOTA is a Mystery School and training order based on the Western Mystery tradition. BOTA teaches students Tarot, Qabalah, Gematria, Astrology, Alchemy, and other related disciplines. You can learn more about Dr. Case and the Builders through their website – https://www.bota.org

Fundamental to the training, the Pattern on the Trestleboard is a list of positive statements relating to the Qabalistic Tree of Life.

Regular study and meditation on this list of seemingly simple statements can open the mind in new and interesting ways. Read the list from zero to ten in the morning, and from ten to zero before retiring in the evening.

0. All the Power that ever was or will be is here now.

Consider what modern physics tells us about energy. The first law of thermodynamics states that energy in a closed system must remain constant. There can be no change without an outside force. All of the power that ever was or will be is here now.

1. I am a center of expression for the Primal Will-to-Good which eternally creates and sustains the Universe.

To us, the most reasonable explanation for this Universe is that something created it. To us, the most reasonable explanation for our conscious existence is what the ancients have been telling us since the beginning of history – that we are some kind of offspring from that which created the Universe, and keeps it in order. I am a center of expression for the Primal Will-to-Good which eternally creates and sustains the Universe.

2. Through me its unfailing Wisdom takes form in thought and word.

To us, this means that the Primal Will-to-Good works through us in its eternal creating and sustaining of the Universe, or at least that it can if we don’t let our egos get in the way.

3. Filled with Understanding of its perfect law, I am guided, moment by moment, along the path of liberation.

This could be understood to mean that even when life gets difficult – as it sometimes does – that we have a guide, and that we are on the path of liberation. Filled with Understanding of its perfect law, I am guided, moment by moment, along the path of liberation.

4. From the exhaustless riches of its Limitless Substance, I draw all things needful, both spiritual and material.

There are some people who look at the world from a scarcity mentality; life is tough and it is hard to get the things we want in life. There are other people who look at the world from an abundance mentality; life is great and it has everything to offer if you just know how to see it when it comes along. From the exhaustless riches of its Limitless Substance, I draw all things needful, both spiritual and material.

5. I recognize the manifestation of the Undeviating Justice in all the circumstances of my life.

Even when life gets tough, perhaps especially when life gets tough, there is a lesson for you to learn in the experience. That’s what life is – a series of lessons that we either teach or learn in our time in this life. Seeing life from this perspective sometimes helps during the tougher times in life. I recognize the manifestation of the Undeviating Justice in all the circumstances of my life.

6. In all things, great and small, I see the Beauty of the Divine Expression.

We find the paradigm that this universe is simply the result of random chaos unacceptable. Our Universe is too orderly and too beautiful to be random. In all things, great and small, I see the Beauty of the Divine Expression.
(We will have future posts to expand on this idea.)

7. Living from that Will, supported by its unfailing Wisdom and Understanding, mine is the Victorious Life.

We know that when we live life in accordance with the Will that we will have a victorious life.

8. I look forward with confidence to the perfect realization of the Eternal Splendor of the Limitless Light.

We will all ultimately be reunited with the Primal Will-to-Good. It doesn’t need to be through the death of the physical body, and that is not a guaranteed path anyway. We strive to live our lives in a way that brings us closer to this realization. I look forward with confidence to the perfect realization of the Eternal Splendor of the Limitless Light.

9. In thought and word and deed, I rest my life, from day to day, upon the sure Foundation of Eternal Being.

We have a higher self. Call it ba, ka, pneuma, ruach, holy guardian angel, spirit, soul or whatever. As we go through every day we think, talk and act from the notion that what makes us truly “us” is Eternal. In thought and word and deed, I rest my life, from day to day, upon the sure Foundation of Eternal Being.

10. The Kingdom of Spirit is embodied in my flesh.

As above, so below. We are the Universe in microcosm. We were created in God’s image.

What does the Pattern on the Trestleboard mean to you? Why do you think it is read zero to ten in the morning, and in reverse in the evening? How does changing the order change the meaning for you? Let us know in the comments!

The post The Pattern on the Trestleboard appeared first on Metaphysical Family.

Humankind has had a fascination with geometry, astronomy and geomancy since before recorded history. The pyramids at Giza are aligned to the cardinal directions and the Great Sphinx watches in perfect alignment as the Sun rise over the Nile on the equinoxes. Stonehenge has numerous alignments, both celestial and terrestrial. From Machu Picchu to Gobekli Tepe, ancient architects and builders purposely aligned their structures in a very precise way. We do not know how the ancients came to this knowledge or ability, but it is unarguably clear that they had both.

Does the Earth contain a natural energy matrix? Are there naturally occurring geographical markers which point out this matrix? Does Earth have a chakra system? Is the Crown chakra of North America located in Vermont?

Lake Willoughby – Westover Vermont

Most people are completely unaware that the Earth is coursing with energy currents. Modern science calls these energy currents telluric currents, and they are present to some extent all over the Earth’s surface. The United States Geologic Survey (USGS) maintains a map of these currents in their magnetic anomaly map, available online at https://mrdata.usgs.gov/magnetic/map-us.html

Lake Willoughby is an absolutely beautiful place. People say that it resembles a Norwegian Fjord. I have never been to Norway, but if it looks like Willoughby, it must be beautiful.

We only intended to visit Lake Willoughby once while we were in Vermont. It made such an impression that we went back to spend a second day on the southern beach there. Both trips touched us in ways that are difficult to express in words. If you are ever in the area, make the time to visit this amazing place. Take off your shoes, put your feet into the crystal clear waters and just feel. Stay as long as you can. You will be glad you did.

Be aware that there is a “clothing optional” beach on the south shore of the lake. It is not visible from the boat launch, but is not far west of the south beach parking area.

Sentinel Rock – Westmore Vermont

We stumbled upon Sentinel Rock while researching Lake Willoughby. Sentinel Rock is a large glacial boulder nearby to Lake Willoughby. Like Lake Willoughby, Sentinel Rock is a mysterious place to many. It is not difficult to understand why. The giant boulder looks completely out of place on an otherwise open hillside.

Sentinel Rock Information Board

Sentinel Rock, Westmore Vermont

It was while researching Sentinel Rock I found an article on vermonster.com which mentioned the work of someone named Dr. R.M. de Jonge:

SENTINEL ROCK, VERMONT
(Discovery of America and Biblical Flood, c.1900 BC)
Dr. R.M. de Jonge , drsrmdejonge@yahoo.com

Summary

Sentinel Rock is located in Westmore, northern Vermont. It is a big glacial boulder, which turns out to be a monument of the Megalithic Culture of New England. It tells the well-kown story of the discovery of America in the Fourth and Fifth Dynasties of Egypt (c.2500 BC). It bears a large petroglyph of a Comet, and it turns out to be situated close to an ancient crater having a diameter of 17 km. So, it also tells the story of the Biblical Flood, which occurred at the start of the Sixth Dynasty (c.2344 BC). It was caused by a Comet Catastrophe, at which more than half of the world population perished (2.6 mil-lion men). Nearby Lake Willoughby symbolizes this Comet. The monument dates from the Twelfth Dynasty (Middle Kingdom), c.1900 BC.

https://www.slideshare.net/rmdejonge/sentinel-rock-vermont-10042235

We looked for the petroglyph of a comet. We did see a large marking on the rock, but it did not immediately resemble a comet to us.

Dr. R. M. de Jonge is the head of the Institute for Megalithic Research, which is (or was) based in the Netherlands. They have a website at https://megalithicresearch.blogspot.com/ but it has not been updated in a long time. We did discover that Dr. de Jonge has much of his research available online at slideshare. Anyone interested “alternate” history will find much interesting material for thought at https://www.slideshare.net/rmdejonge/documents
