Randall Carlson's team has invited me to give some Star Myth presentations and to lead some night-time Star Myth Tours during Randall's upcoming Grand Vision Tour in Sedona, Arizona this April, 2022.
Randall's Grand Vision Tour consists of two successive conferences on two successive weekends, along with some optional activities during the week in between.
The first weekend features Randall along with Graham Hancock and takes place over the weekend of April 15 - 17, 2022 (which is Easter weekend for the western calendar). Here is a link to Graham's website.
The second weekend features Randall along with me and other special guests and takes place over the weekend of April 22 - 24, 2022 (which is Earth Day weekend).
Purchasing tickets to attend one or the other weekend entitles you to access video content from both weekends, after the event is completed and the video is posted online.
Tickets are available through WorldViewzMedia, the website of Robert Dakota who is hosting the events in Sedona.
The Star Myth Tours will take place in the evening of the weekend of April 22 - 24, if conditions permit, and will involve observing the constellations along with some discussion of various myths associated with those constellations. I will point out the constellations visible at this time of year and help everyone to find them in the night sky.
There will also be other activities that weekend, including an outdoor jam session with Randall participating on the drums!
I am looking forward to this special event and hope to see you there!
We are about to reach the point in the year at which the circular path traced out by the Sun in its daily travels matches the line of the Celestial Equator.
The annual dance of the Earth and the Sun, and the fact that our Earth is tilted to the plane of the ecliptic, causes the Sun's arc to move along a predictable path in between the two Solstices, reaching its most northerly path above the Celestial Equator at the June Solstice, and its most southerly path beneath the Celestial Equator at the December Solstice.
In between those two extremes, the Sun's path crosses the Celestial Equator twice in the year: once on its way "up" to the most northerly path (which it reaches at the June Solstice), and once on its way "down to the most southerly path (which it reaches at the December Solstice).
These two crossing-points, when the Sun on its path crosses the Celestial Equator, are called the Equinoxes. The crossing-point on the way north takes place in March each year, and the crossing-point on the way back south takes place in September.
These points of Equinox are not debatable in their date or their time: the relationship of Earth to Sun means that the Sun's center-of-mass crosses the line of the Celestial Equator at a precise moment, and that moment does not change no matter where you are on the Earth.
There is some confusion about this point because the news reporting (which has nothing to do with educating men and women about the truth of virtually any situation) consistently tells us that the equinox marks the day with exactly 12 hours of daylight and 12 hours of darkness, which is not precisely accurate. However, the moment when the Sun's center-of-mass crosses the Celestial Equator is the actual definition of Equinox and is quite precise.
This year, the Sun crosses that point at 1533 UTC on 20 March (which is already 21 March in some parts of the world whose local time is ahead of UTC by some number of hours). For readers in North America, this time corresponds to 11:33am Eastern time on 20 March, and 8:33am Pacific time on 20 March.
The Sun's path through the sky will be generally along the Celestial Equator throughout the entire day, but due to the relative motion of Earth and Sun, the Sun's exact center-of-mass will not be precisely on the line of the Celestial Equator throughout the entire day, but just at that special time described above.
The angle of the Sun's path across the sky has a tremendous impact on the Earth and all creatures on Earth, of course -- and in parallel to the changes that we can observe as the Sun moves between its highest and lowest path throughout the year, the world's ancient myths employ these motions and changes as a kind of code or esoteric language for conveying profound truths for our benefit in this life.
This ancient system can be seen to be operating in the ancient myths and sacred traditions of virtually every culture on Earth, from every inhabited continent and island on our planet. It is already present, fully-developed, in the earliest myths we can find, from the earliest cultures we know of: for example, this system is already fully-developed in the earliest writings of ancient Egypt, ancient Mesopotamia, and ancient India.
It is also clearly present in the stories of the Bible -- and indeed we can see that the various sacred days described in the scriptures of the Bible and derived from those stories correspond to the framework of the Solstices and Equinoxes.
This fact argues that this system comes from some even older predecessor culture. The differences between the myths of these cultures (while still using the identical system) also argues that this predecessor may have been much earlier than any of those civilizations (Egypt, India, or Sumer).
The fact that myths on faraway continents and islands -- such as the myths of the cultures of the Americas, and the myths of the cultures of Australia, and the myths of the cultures of the Pacific -- can also be shown to be built upon this same esoteric foundation also argues for some extremely ancient predecessor culture as a possible explanation for this remarkable phenomenon.
Needless to say, this evidence completely upends conventional paradigms of human history. And yet the evidence in the myths is abundant, clear, and compelling (in fact, I would argue that it is so abundant and so clear that the evidence is conclusive).
I have now created a series of online courses in which I describe and demonstrate this evidence -- and the operations of this ancient world-wide system -- as clearly and comprehensively as I can. These courses are available at The Undying Stars Academy.
The first course that I made is entitled "Celestial Mechanics and the Myths," and it spends a lot of time explaining concepts such as the Celestial Equator, and the ecliptic, and the Sun's motion back and forth across the Celestial Equator throughout the cycle of the year.
I hope you will enjoy these classes, and that your learning the details of this ancient system of celestial metaphor will help this important knowledge to be preserved -- and will also have real and immediate positive impact on your life.
And, as we arrive at the point of Equinox, I hope you can take the time to reflect on the amazing message of the ancient myths -- and in particular their teaching regarding recovery of Self.
I am convinced that ancient observances connected to this point of the annual cycle (such as Passover and Easter, both of which have connections to the Full Moon following March Equinox, although the formula is rather complicated) relate to the phenomenon of our alienation from Self -- and our hoped-for recovery of Self.
That recovery of -- and greater and greater harmony with -- Self is what I sincerely hope for each of you reading this right now, this Equinox and going forward into whatever the future holds.
I've written on this subject in the past, but new for this year is a short video illustrating evidence pointing to the fact that the story of St. Patrick is based on celestial metaphor.
Interestingly, the Patrick story shares many similarities with the story of Joseph in the book of Genesis, which is the subject of this previous post.
The world's ancient myths share a common foundation -- a fact which should unite us.
Instead, literalism -- and especially literalist christianity -- has been used to divide us.
The Bible stories and many stories of saints' lives can be shown to be based on celestial metaphor -- using the very same ancient system given to cultures around the world, including Celtic myth, Norse myth, Greek myth, Vedic and Sanskrit myths from ancient India, myths of Egypt and Mesopotamia, and sacred traditions of Africa and of ancient China and Japan, and of Australia, and of the Americas, and of the cultures of the Pacific.
Learn to hear the world's ancient myths in the language they are actually speaking, and the message they have about recovery of our authentic Self, from whom we become alienated and disconnected due to Trauma.
In my 2020 book Myth and Trauma, I explain that violent "false flag" events in which criminal elements of one's own government orchestrate the violent event and then blame the event on someone else (such as the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1963, or the destruction of the World Trade Center Towers One, Two, and Seven in September of 2001) can be used to induce trauma upon the men and women of a nation.
Cutting-edge healers and therapists define trauma as a separation from our own Self.
In Myth and Trauma, I write that in the face of clear evidence that outrageous crimes such as the assassination of John F. Kennedy or the events of September 11, 2001 were permitted and even orchestrated by criminal (and indeed treasonous) elements lodged within the government itself, many people will suppress that evidence from their own conscious awareness, because the implications of such criminal activity at such a level are so threatening, so disorienting, and so revolting.
On page 475, I explain:
The majority of the people, in the classic pattern of trauma described earlier, suppress the significance of what they are seeing taking place in the world around them [. . .]. Such suppression has a splintering effect upon the psyche, as we have already seen. It leads us to suppress and deny that part of us which knows better, which sees through the lie -- but we suppress that truth because the truth is too painful, and we do it without even realizing we are doing it (and, in doing so, we suppress the voice inside us that is telling us that something doesn't add up).
The possibility that absolutely treasonous criminals have gained control of the very government upon which we depend for protection from fraudulent and violent actors both foreign and domestic is extremely threatening and extremely disorienting and extremely repugnant -- and for this reason, many men and women will stubbornly refuse to see the evidence, even when it is staring them in the face.
Yesterday (08 March 2022), during recorded testimony before the United States Senate Committee on Foreign Relations (entire session recording available on CSPAN-3 here), Senator Marco Rubio and Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland engaged in what seemed like a pre-scripted exchange (note the barely-contained smiles in the clip above) regarding the question of secret and illegal military bio-labs funded by the US Department of Defense and located in the Ukraine.
The article describes allegations of bio-weapons labs located in the Ukraine and funded by the US Department of Defense, staffed with American specialists, in violation of UN treaties and international law, experimenting with deadly toxins including anthrax, smallpox, and botulinum. Many other similar allegations have been aired over the years and can be found by searching -- but these allegations have been categorically denied and mocked as conspiracy theories.
Yesterday, in the Senate testimony linked above (a short but pertinent clip of which is shown above and linked here), the Undersecretary of State of the US flat-out admitted that such labs do actually exist, despite all the prior protestations to the contrary.
This sudden admission (and about-face to the previous lies denying their existence) is probably due to the fact that Russia has now captured a number of these labs in recent days, and has provided documentation of their existence and of the fact that whoever had been working in the labs had hastily removed or destroyed as many as possible of the documents and samples from the labs before fleeing.
This video is extremely important and should be watched carefully in its entirety. Keep in mind that until yesterday, the US government and its media (propaganda) arms were actively denying the existence of Pentagon-funded bio-labs in the Ukraine -- but as you can hear from the lips of the Undersecretary of State in the above Senate testimony from 08 March, the US now admits the existence of those labs, thereby providing support to the statements being made in the video below:
According to the translation, part of the statements made in the above briefing include the following:
The US Department of Defense funded a network of over thirty labs in the Ukraine.
Military contractors who work in the field of biological "defense" were present in some of the labs.
The German Department of Defense was also conducting biological research in these Ukraine labs.
Experiments were conducted on bio agents including plague, brucellosis, anthrax, meningitis, leptospirosis, Crimean hemorrhagic fever, diphtheria, dysentery, salmonella, tularemia, and hantavirus.
Bio samples taken from patients in the Ukraine under coronavirus collection protocols were sent to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in the US for further research -- particularly samples taken from Ukrainians of Slavic descent.
Ukraine has experienced sharp increases in outbreaks of communicable diseases including tuberculosis and rubella since the 2014 coup in that country.
The labs hastily destroyed samples and removed evidence when Russia commenced the invasion of the Ukraine on 24 February 2022.
The types of infectious pathogens (many of them deadly) and the quantities involved strongly indicate that the research and production being conducted at these bio-labs was related to bio-warfare.
Gain-of-function research may have been taking place (one reason to destroy the samples at the labs would be to prevent analysis which would prove gain-of-function was being conducted on the pathogens).
Now that the US can no longer deny the existence of these illegal bio-labs in Ukraine, what will happen?
The danger of a false flag to be blamed on the Russians in order to try to deflect from the enormous implications of these secret Pentagon-funded bio-labs in the Ukraine is very high -- and is more than hinted at in the conversation above from the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations.
In the exchange, Senator Marco Rubio asks Undersecretary of State Victoria Nuland:
"If there's a biological or chemical weapon incident or attack inside of Ukraine, is there any doubt in your mind that 100% it would be the Russians that would be behind it?"
As she answers, Victoria Nuland smiles, and says:
"There is no doubt in my mind, Senator, and it is classic Russian technique to -- uhhh -- blame on the other guy what they're planning to do themselves."
This exchange is highly suspicious and should be enormously concerning to all men and women on Earth.
That is an extremely serious accusation, and if Senator Marco Rubio and Undersecretary Victoria Nuland are going to be allowed to make such an accusation, then they need to be questioned about the source of their certainty that any "biological or chemical weapon incident or attack inside of Ukraine" must certainly have "Russians behind it."
Why on earth would Russia want to stage a biological or chemical weapon attack? Whose illegal and secret bio-labs were just captured and revealed, despite years of vehement denial of their very existence?
The allegation by Victoria Nuland that it is "classic Russian technique to blame on the other guy what they're planning to do themselves" is actually ludicrous. What she is describing is actually a documented NATO technique, as can be seen by studying the horrific and criminal history of Operation Gladio during the Cold War.
However, the idea that elements of one's own government could condone such criminal actions as those which took place during Operation Gladio (including the bombing of train stations and night clubs, deliberately killing innocent civilians in order to blame "the left"), is so disturbing and repugnant that many men and women will simply block it out entirely, despite overwhelming evidence which can point to no other conclusion.
Now, with this testimony before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee yesterday (08 March 2022), we have a clear admission of the existence of bio-labs in the Ukraine which had been categorically denied until yesterday -- along with a prediction that if any "biological or chemical incident or attack inside of Ukraine" should take place, it must "100%" be attributed to "the Russians."
How do Senator Rubio and Undersecretary of State Nuland know this with 100% certainty already?
This exchange, captured on video, should wake all men and women up to the reality of the problem that we face -- a problem that is so dangerous and so threatening, that many would prefer to "not even see" it, even when the evidence is staring them in the face.
A very special "Thank You!" to Kesenya at Guiding Star Astrology for inviting me back to her channel for another fantastic conversation about Stars, Myths, Astrology, Trauma, Recovery, and Self!
Welcome to any new visitors coming to my site for the first time after hearing this interview -- and of course to all returning friends!
After many months and countless hours of preparation, it's finally here: a brand-new course in The Undying Stars Academy!
Introducing The Celestial Bible Tour, Part One -- in which we explore some of the most well-known and esoterically significant stories in the ancient scriptures of the Bible.
This Bible Tour is the first of the "Applications" courses, in which we take a deep dive into the sacred stories of one specific myth-system, applying the framework introduced in the two "Foundations" courses of The Undying Stars Academy: Celestial Mechanics and the Myths, and Recovering our Deeper Self.
In learning this material, you will be helping to preserve and pass along the incredible ancient wisdom given to humanity in the Star Myths of all cultures -- but in addition to that, it is my hope that you will hear their ancient message in a new way, one with immediate and very positive application to your own life, in this very present moment.
I am looking forward to exploring the incredible stories of the Bible with you, and their dramatization of our condition of alienation from Self . . . and the way that they point us back towards reconciliation with and recovery of our own Self.
Thank you so much for your interest in the world's ancient myths, and your support of my work.
