Masonic Initiation Wells | Located near the historic center of Sintra, Portugal lies the Quinta da Regaleira – a spectacular estate that sits in a World Heritage protected landscape. While thousands of tourists flock to the castle every year to admire the unique architecture of the Quinta de Regaleira that combines Gothic, Egyptian, Moorish and Renaissance features, one of its most fascinating features is located beneath the ground – a pair of wells spiraling deep within the earth. The wells were never used, nor intended for water collection. Instead, these mysterious underground towers were used for secretive initiation rites.

A stone’s throw from the beautiful Palace of Sintra stands another UNESCO World Heritage Site – the opulent Quinta da Regaleira, an altogether more mysterious place that was completed in 1910. Once owned by the wealthy entomologist António Augusto Carvalho Monteiro, the Quinta da Regaleira is considered one of the most important cultural landmarks of Sintra, a town in the Lisbon District of Portugal.

 Along with its many decorative structures, lakes, grottos, and tunnels, two mysterious wells that better resemble inverted subterranean towers than water sources sit steeped in mysticism.

The estate was designed by an Italian architect, Luigi Manini. Manini was a creative genius and well known for his Neo-Manueline style. Quinta de Regaleira is possibly one of his most amazing works, combining mystical elements throughout the ages and merging them into the beautiful forest of Sintra.

This genius is apparent throughout the site. There are many structures that seem perfectly natural, but are not. The waterfall lake and the labyrinthine grotto are two such structures. But really, the entire place feels as if it is almost carved out of the very rock it stands on.

The place has a strange and eerie atmosphere, and if you can manage to ignore the many tourists around you it can even become magical. The labyrinthic network of tunnels is a like a gateway to the unconscious, and the initiation well is straight out of a fairytale. This palace could have been the inspiration for the castle in Disney’s the Beauty and the Beast. The view of Sintra and all the towns and cities around it is impressive from the Palace’s roof courtyard.

The Regaleira chapel is pure white, charming and small, yet opulent in its own way. It is a fascinating chapel I’ve ever been to, and an example of how no religious belief is ever truly separate from all the others that have come before. Apart from the usual Catholic imagery and statues, the chapel also spotted pentagrams surrounding the Order of the Christ Cross and the symbol of the Free Masons on the ceiling of the doorway.

Damp, mysterious, covered in moss and steeped in mysticism, the breathtaking architecture of these so-called initiation wells are a must-see for visitors to the region and not just those with an interest in the occult.

We are about to witness an extremely unusual convergence of events that many believe could represent a major turning point for our nation. By now you have probably heard that on August 21st a total solar eclipse will move across the entire continental United States for the first time in decades. In fact, we have not seen a total solar eclipse cross from the west coast to the east coast in 99 years. And it will be the very first total solar eclipse that is only visible in this country since the United States first became a nation. Starting with that event, there is going to be a whole lot going on until we reach the end of September. The following are 12 critical events that are going to happen over a 40 day period from August 21st to September 30th…

August 21 – The “Great American Eclipse” will sweep across portions of Oregon, Idaho, Wyoming, Montana, Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina. Seven years later, another very unusual total solar eclipse will move across our nation, and when you plot the paths of both eclipses on a map, they form a giant “X” right over the center of the United States.

August 23 – A FEMA exercise known as “EarthEX2017” will simulate “catastrophes such as mega earthquakes, cyber terrorism or high altitude electromagnetic pulse attacks”…

An exercise sponsored by FEMA and the U.S. Department of Energy set to take place on August 23 called EarthEX2017 will wargame responses to catastrophes such as mega earthquakes, cyber terrorism or high altitude electromagnetic pulse attacks.

The exercise will simulate a “subcontinent-scale, long duration power outage, with cascading failures of all other infrastructures,” according to the official Earth Ex website.

“Black sky events” are defined as, “Catastrophic occurrences caused by man or nature that bring society to its knees.

“Black sky events” are defined as, “Catastrophic occurrences caused by man or nature that bring society to its knees.”

September 1 – This marks the start of FEMA’s annual “National Preparedness Month“.

September 1 – The U.S. State Department’s ban on U.S. citizens traveling into North Korea goes into effect. Many are concerned that this is yet another sign that we are moving toward war with North Korea.

September 11 – This will be the 16th anniversary of 9/11.

September 20 – Rosh Hashanah begins at sunset.

September 21 –The UN International Day Of Peace

September 23 – This is the date of what has become known as “the Revelation 12 sign”. If you are not familiar with this alignment yet, the following is a very brief summary…

On September 23rd a unique astronomical alignment of the Sun, Moon, constellation Virgo, constellation Leo, and planets Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, and Venus is going to fulfill this passage from the book of Revelation:

And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was pregnant and was crying out in birth pains and the agony of giving birth.

September 24 – Very important national elections will be held in Germany.

September 29 – Yom Kippur begins at sunset, and it concludes on September 30th. Of course

September 30th will be the end of a 40 day period that began back on the day of the Great American Eclipse on August 21st.

September 29 – U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin says that the debt ceiling will be breached on this day if Congress does not raise it by then.

September 30 – If Congress does not pass a budget by the end of this day, there will be a government shutdown just like we witnessed in 2013.

On top of everything else, the month of September is when the Federal Reserve is scheduled to begin unwinding their 4.5 trillion dollar balance sheet…

The other big market force that could ruffle markets is clearly the Fed, which is expected to begin the untested task of unwinding its $4.5 trillion balance sheet in September.

In addition, it is very interesting to note that a large asteroid will come within 4,200 miles of our planet on October 12th…

The asteroid has not been seen since its 2012 discovery, when it sped past Earth at about one-fourth the distance from Earth to the moon. It’s been too distant and too faint to be detected over the last five years. As it starts to approach Earth this summer, large telescopes will be used to detect it and re-establish the asteroid’s precise trajectory. 

The asteroid, known as 2012 TC4, could come as close as 4,200 miles to Earth, NASA said. That’s actually fairly close, when you consider that the moon is about 239,000 miles away.

So what does all of this mean?

I don’t know, but I am sure that I will receive even more criticism for putting this list together. Those of us that monitor global events and warn about where things are headed are often highly criticized. But in this day and age, we desperately need independent thinkers that are willing to challenge the system. Way too often people just go with the herd and will believe whatever the mainstream media tells them to think.

Never let someone else do your thinking for you. Investigate things for yourself and come to your own conclusions. Learning to think critically is one of the most important skills that you can have, and you will find that it is one of the most common traits among those that are truly “awake” to what is going on in the world.

The truth is out there, and if you diligently seek it you will eventually find it.

Magic Ring ⊗ It is known that the great majority of historical personalities loved the jewels and precious stones they wore or collected.

Treasures do not always consist of large treasures of gold or precious stones. A treasure may also be an extremely precious artifact, such as the Ark of the Covenant, the Longinus sword, or a small but very precious ring with magical powers.

Magic Ring of Solomon and “Solomon’s Key”

“Vanity of vanities; all is vanity.” Old and meditative king Solomon by Isaak Asknaziy.

According to legends, the famous King Solomon had a very valuable gold ring. The ring was not only precious, but it was also magic. With it, Solomon could control spirits, but also demons. Of all its treasures, this ring is considered the most mystical.

It is said that one day the king lost the precious magic ring in the waters of the Jordan River. Solomon considered that the ring is lost forever until a fisherman came to him. He found the ring inside the body of a fish. It is said that the magical ring is buried alongside King Solomon’s body.

However, no one found the tomb of Solomon … yet! And the one who finds the ring will become the ruler of the world.

The legend of the talisman, or the Seal of King Solomon, received from Heaven, is the commonplace of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Solomon’s seal, whose base is on the earth and whose top touches the sky, symbolizes the harmony of opposites, the cosmic order, the movement of stars in their spheres, and the perpetual communication between the earth and the sky, between the elements of the air and the fire.

In this way, Solomon’s seal became an emblem of wisdom and superhuman governance through divine grace.

“Solomon’s Key” is a grimoire or “magic book” attributed to King Solomon. The known copies are from the Middle Ages and beyond that time, but there is no doubt that the book contains several paragraphs and terms inspired by the Talmudic and Kabbalah texts. It is a particular interest in the field of demonology.

The “Solomon Key” may have inspired further works such as “Lemegeton,” also called “Solomon’s Minor Key“.

“Solomon’s Key” is the most famous or infamous of all magical texts, and has influenced many of Europe’s “grammars” of magical practice. It exists in different versions and languages and is traditionally attributed to King Solomon.

That luxurious monarch from the 10th century BC was renowned for his wisdom, and by legend he has acquired a formidable reputation as a magician master who has hired his legions of spirits to build the Temple in Jerusalem, obeying them with his Magic ring.

It is said that an angel was sent by God to bring to Solomon this magical ring, which gave him power over the demons who helped him in magic.

“Solomon’s key”, divided into two books, contains the conjurations and invocation of the call of the spirits of the dead (preferably in battle) and the spirits of hell (it is not known whether they are demons or punished souls, but it is understandable from the text, that those spirits are demons) and the protection of the conjuror (called exorcist in the book) by them and against an attempt to possess. There are curses to oblige spirits who hesitate to obey.

Ring of Atlanteans in Egypt

Howard Carter is the archaeologist who, in 1922, discovered the tomb of Tutankhamun. At that time, everyone was surprised that the famous curse of the pharaoh’s grave did not affect the main archaeologist, while those in his suite were affected by the curse. It is said that Carter was protected from the curse because he had a ring found in Assuan, in the tomb of a priest named Jua.

The ring had various geometric figures, such as three straight lines and triangles. The figures on the ring were arranged in accordance with the principles of esoteric knowledge. The ring was meant to protect a person from dangers, curses, and black magic.

Today, the ring is known as the “ring of Ra” and is believed to have been originally designed by the people of Atlantis. According to the same theory, Egyptians are considered to be the descendants of Atlantis. As for the ring, an explanation of its power results from the radionic principles that may have positive or negative effects on the individual wearing it.

Love Ring of Charles the Great

Speaking that being influenced by the power of a magic ring, Emperor Charles the Great fell in love with a German woman. He loved her so much that she began to neglect her state affairs to be with her. However, one day, the woman died.

Charles the Great held the woman’s dead body and refused to bury her. One day, when Charles the Great was gone, Archbishop Turpin entered the Emperor’s Bedroom. There, he noticed a precious ring on the body that he took with him.

As soon as the ring was removed, the dead body began to rot. On the return of Charles the Great, all he found was a terrible smelly body. He buried the body, but another strange thing began to happen. Charles the Great began to be passionate about Archbishop Turpin. The Archbishop realized he was suspicious about the ring, so he took the ring and threw it into the lake.

According to the legend, Charles the Great fell in love with the lake, so he ordered that a magnificent palace be built near the lake. Thus Aix-la-Chapelle was born, where Charles the Great was buried at his death.

Magic Ring of Genghis Khan

Genghis Khan, the great Mongol ruler, knew how to take advantage of magic. In the 12th century, he reigned over the great Mongol Empire, and some believe that this is due to a powerful magic ring. The ring had a ruby inscribed with a magic symbol and was worn by both Genghis Khan and his nephew, Kublai Khan. He always wore the ring on his right hand, on his index finger.

The great ruler, the possessor of a precious treasure, wore on his right hand the one with which he stretched the string of the bow, a gold ring with a ruby, a great bloody stone. On it was a swastika, a holy symbol of prosperity, luck and peace, used in Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. Unfortunately, in the West, it is known as the emblem of the fascist and Nazi movement, but this sign was used thousands of years before Hitler took over.

In the Cretan civilization, the swastika was used as a sacred symbol or as a decorative element, and the Greeks inherited from them the decorative motifs of the labyrinth type, having the swastika in the center.

Svastica belonged to the bronze age cult, and it appears in the countries where the Pelasgian breed, which we meet from its beginnings, and on the territory of Romania. Svastica is generally the hallmark of the Aryan races, and especially of the Thracians, from which the Romanian people are also drawn.

Anyway, it’s a strange coincidence that, at a distance of seven centuries, Genghis-Han and Hitler had the same distinctive sign-swastika.

But what happened to that famous Gingis Khan ring? Nobody knows, and yet there are many influential people in Asia who are still looking for it today. It is probably hidden from the eyes and hands of the avid of power and fame.

Ever since its creation, Area 51 has been filled with speculation as to what is actually going on there. There have been countless theories and guesses what is conducted on the inside. Speculations ranging from Extraterrestrial presence to the construction of our own UFOs.

Whatever hidden truths lie in the top secret facility, it is known that no one is allowed to be anywhere near the area. No pictures are allowed, and even the president himself is on a need to know basis, and cannot walk onto the premises without reason.

This video was released in 2016, of a supposed interview that took place on Area 51 base back in 1964. The video shows what appears to be a form of extraterrestrial life that claims to have traveled thousands of light years to observe present day operations of earth due to the destruction of evidence. The intriguing thing is that he claims to be from earth, an evolutionary descendant from our distant future. The being in the video shows us that there is still a lot of information out there that we are not yet capable of comprehending. Knowledge of life’s bigger questions.

If it is fake or not, we are still centuries away from being able to understand the discoveries of this being’s time. Try to think beyond ourselves, and this time period. It is proven that the universe spans billions of light years away; the equivalent of an atom in our bodies. With our lifespan of roughly 80 years, how can we for confirm what is going on outside of the galaxy, our planet even.

Whether you believe what is in this video or not, it shows a harsh truth about our world and how mankind is currently evolving. It sheds a light and possibly even a new perspective on some major topics like time and space travel, religion, the existence of God, origin of our universe, political dogma, our extinction, death and even nuclear warfare.

Take a look at the video and see for yourself:

The most widely read book in all of history, the Bible has pushed the faith of billions of people and has shaped the very world that we live in. 

But what if there was something that was not drastically clear in the way that people decipher the Bible.

What we’re going to discuss is the Annunaki in the Bible.

These are very important parts of Scripture that often go overlooked by readers, but shed some light on a different side of the Bible and the very faith that billions of people believe in.

Before we jump into the scripture itself, let’s try to clarify what we know about the who they Annunaki were.

Who Are The Annunaki?

Annunaki is a phrase that has been made famous by Zecharia Sitchin.

Found within many of his famous books, Sitchin explores ancient mythology, megalithic structures around the world and various books to demonstrate that an extraterrestrial race visited the planet.

What’s interesting is that these were the gods found within the Sumerian tablets.

The Annunaki were actual deities and their names come from the old god of the sky “Anu.”

But when you look deeper into the Sumerian tablets, you start to notice that there is a stark comparative relationship between the Bible and what these ancient cultures believed in.

When you begin to look deep into the Bible, you’ll see that there are some similarities that often go overlooked by even the most religious people.

Such occurrences include Giants in the Bible.

Sumerian Tablets

The Sumerian tablets were written by the Sumerians. This was a society that invented writing, and had advanced knowledge of mathematics, science and astronomy.

According to these tablets, the Anunnaki, or Anannge, were angels.

These were people that were technologically advanced and actually lived on earth around 8200 BC in the Middle East.

Ninill and Enlil were at the center of the stories. Ninill was the goddess that ruled over the land, and Enlil was her husband. The God of War, Ninurta, was the son of Enlil and Ninlil.

These gods are very similar to the gods that you would know from ancient Greece and Rome, and this is the first time that we hear about the garden of Eden. This is the same Eden that we know from the Bible.

Within the Sumerian tablets, Ninlil asks the Council of seven to create what is called “Eden.” This is a heavenly garden.

The Annunaki were also tied to the Watchers which are found in the Book of Enoch. Not surprisingly, the Watchers were in charge of watching over “Eden.”

The Book of Enoch
A book that is an ancient Jewish religious work, the Book of Enoch is the tradition of Enoch, and is closely tied to Noah.

As you already know, Noah was in charge of saving all the world’s animals, and it was his great-grandfather who wrote the Book of Enoch.

Much like the Bible, the Book of Enoch is really a series of different books.

Inside of the book, you’ll find the following:

• The Book of Watchers
• Book of Parables
• The Astronomical Book
• The Dream Visions
• The Epistles of Enoch

This is a very important read if you want to delve deeper into religious text. Now the reason that we’re talking about this book is because of:

• The Watchers
• Nephilim
• Bane of Angels

The Watchers fell to earth and are our form of Angels who fathered the Nephilim. What is interesting is that many of the names found within this text correlate directly to the Bible:

1. Azazel
2. Raphael
3. Gabriel

And while the book is not considered part of the Bible, many believe that it is one of the texts that does hold religious significance.

There are many such books to have not made it into the Bible that you and I know today. Why?

It could be that these texts go against what the church has been telling us for centuries.

What we’ve seen so far is that these two ancient texts seem to meld into each other perfectly. But it goes even deeper than that with the Annunaki.

The scripture that is of the main importance is [Genesis 5:18]. Within this text, you’ll find Enoch who fathered Methuselah, who fathered Lamech, who fathered Noah.

This is within the holy Bible, and directly correlates with the two texts The Book of Enoch and the Sumerian tablets.

Interestingly, the Annunaki Fallen Angels would mix with indigenous people as stated within The Book of Enoch.

Giants in the Bible

Where do Giants fit into all of this? Well, the Annunaki began to mingle with the indigenous people, and this union led to the hybrid race that were called Giants.

The Giants can be found in Chapter 7 of the Book of Enoch. The exact wording is: “And the women conceiving brought forth giants, whose stature was each three hundred cubits.”

The Book of Enoch is not the Bible, but the Bible does talk about Giants.

You’ll find Giants in the King James Bible, and also within Genesis. Genesis 6:4 states that:

“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.”

But keep in mind that this all occurred before the great flood that Noah is known to be a part of in biblical history.

There was a war in heaven that caused the Watchers to mingle with the women on earth that eventually resulted in the Giants being born.

You’ll also find that in Deuteronomy [2:10-11]:

“The Emims dwelt therein in times past, a people great, and many, and tall, as the Anakims; Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the Moabites call them Emims.”

Keep in mind that this occurs after the great flood, meaning that these giants must have roamed the earth even after the flood occurred.

There are several occurrences of Giants in Deuteronomy, which you can find in Deuteronomy:

• 2:20-21
• 3:11

Joshua 17:5 also mentions Giants in its text:

“And Joshua answered them, If thou be a great people, then get thee up to the wood country, and cut down for thyself there in the land of the Perizzites and of the giants, if mount Ephraim be too narrow for thee.”

What is very important to understand is that the Annunaki are not the creators of the world, or the human race.

Instead, these are fallen angels that were created by God. You’ll also find mention of Enki, which is a Sumerian God who is considered the Lord of the earth.

Looking deeper into mythology, you’ll also find that there are giants mentioned in many texts. This doesn’t just occur in one part of the world.

Mentions of giants have been found all throughout the world, including Rome, India and Egypt. Virtually every corner of the world has some mention of Giants or similar race that co-mingled with humans.

Just to name a few, you can find Giants in the following:

Norse Myths: Jotunheim, a land of Giants. Different types of Giants are also mentioned, such as the Jotun and Iotun. Fire giants even lived in Muspelheim.

Hindu Texts: Interestingly, the Giants known as Daityas fought against the gods because they were jealous of their half-brothers.

Greek Texts: Two great giants named Ge and Tar’taros are mentioned in an attempt to storm heaven. It is stated that these giants were thrown to earth with the help of Hercules, and lay buried underneath Mount Edna.

It’s not so far-fetched even looking at today’s world. There are some people that are exceptionally tall. We have people, such as Bates, that stood 7’11” tall, and even Charlemagne, whom they say was 8 feet tall.

John Middleton was said to stand 9’3”, and the British Strand magazine posted a photo in 1895 of a grave that was uncovered in Ireland with a person that stood 12’2” tall. This person who have had an arm span of 4’6”.

While the giant’s remains used to be on display in exhibitions, no one yet knows what exactly happened to this proof that Giants existed.

The Annunaki have left some strands of evidence that they existed, and the link to giants is one of the many that are still explored today.

Even in our own Bible, we see that there is some proof behind the Annunaki that many people shrug off as a mere myth itself.

We know this is controversial for many to read, but we are asking those with open minds to consider the scriptures in a different light.

The Rediscovery of ‘Noah’, A 6,500 Year Old Skeleton, Who Survived A Great Flood

The rediscovery of ‘Noah’, a 6,500-year-old skeleton, who survived a Great Flood

Scientists at the Penn Museum in Philadelphia recently re-discovered a rare and important find in their storage rooms – a complete human skeleton who lived around 6,500 years ago in the Sumerian city-state of Ur. The aptly named ‘Noah’ was originally found within a layer of deep silt, indicating that he lived after an epic flood. The first known recorded story of a great flood comes from Sumer, now southern Iraq, and it is generally believed to be the historic precursor of the Biblical flood story written millennia later.

The skeleton belongs to a middle-aged man, who had been stored in a coffin-like box for 85 years, all trace of its identifying documentation gone. However, a recent project run by the archaeology museum in Philadelphia to digitize old records brought that documentation, and the history of the skeleton, back to light, allowing the skeleton to be properly identified, and its significance realised, for the first time.

According to a news report in Past Horizons, the skeleton was originally found by British archaeologist Sir Leonard Woolley around 1929/1930 during a joint Penn Museum/British Museum excavation of the ancient city of Ur, near modern-day Nasiriyah in Iraq.

The skeleton was located at an incredible depth of 50 feet, in a deep silt layer beneath the city’s 4,500-year-old royal cemetery. Testing revealed that the layer was 2,000 years older than the cemetery, dating back to the Ubaid period (c. 5,500 to 4,000 BC). A total of 48 human remains were found in the layer, but ‘Noah’ was the only skeleton in good enough condition to be removed. In fact, Noah is the only complete skeleton ever recovered from this region and era.

Sir Leonard Woolley referred to the layer of silt, which was ten-feet thick in some places, as the ‘flood layer’, because, around 40 feet down, it reached a layer of clean, water-lain silt. Noah is known to have survived or lived after the flood as he was buried in its silt deposits. Woolley determined that the original site of Ur had been a small island in a surrounding marsh. Then a great flood covered the land in the Ubaid-era.

People continued to live and flourish at Ur, but many scholars believe it was this flood that was written about in the ancient Sumerian cuneiform tablets and retold by many cultures around the world. Some also believe it was the Sumerian account that later inspired the Biblical story of Noah’s Ark.

One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, The Great Pyramid of Giza has remained a perplexing anomaly on the earth's surface and throughout history.

David Meade, a self-dubbed Christian numerologist, claims to have discovered a hidden code within Giza, this Great Pyramid, which indicates the potential that the world will end in September 2017.

VIDEO: "EVIDENCE OF A NINTH PLANET"

Giza may just as well be a symbol of a new age of some kind rather than a precise map that indicates a date, place, time, or any combination of those, as to the happenings of this (allegedly) imminent collision.

Yes, that's right: a collision. Planet X, the planet that is hypothesized to be on the edge of the solar system, and also called Nibiru, was known to the Babylonians and Sumerians from those time periods as well.

Nibiru completes its orbit of the sun every 3,600 years, according to their calculations. Its next completion falls on September 23, 2017, which is also the date shown within Giza's code.

The Book of Revelation 12 and Giza both attest to the significance of this time between September 20 to September 23, 2017. Meade argues that it might also be a marker for the end of the Church Age and the introduction to the Messianic Era, the Day of the Lord.

Meade continues further, "So let's review the facts: it was built five millennia ago, by someone who possessed a supernaturally high level of knowledge. We've never found bodies, treasures or hieroglyphics in the Pyramid. It's a date marker to this fall [autumn] -- 2017. Why would someone over 5,000 years ago build such a structure with perhaps only one purpose--to lead us to a date this year and this fall?"

It hardly seems coincidental that the long-standing testaments of structure and Scripture alike would convey such precision, thus, why it's hard not to draw conclusions and make predictions about the future of this planet in the vast scheme of infinite cosmic activity.

Jim Green, director of NASA's Planetary Science Division, is not quite convinced, though.

"The possibility of a new planet is certainly an exciting one for me as a planetary scientist and for all of us, "he comments. "This is not, however, the detection or discovery of a new planet. It's too early to say with certainty there's a so-called Planet X."

There is one thing for certain, that the earth has continued in rotation, despite the assured claims of other past end-of-the-world dates and predictions.

Arguably, the increasing number of earthquakes, sinkholes, and other natural disasters (some, outright anomalies) are all seeming less like isolated incidences.

Nevertheless, this revelation proves understandably gripping, judging by what remains of ancient Egyptian artifacts and culture, and by what can be interpreted from it.

The picture below is from a book authored by Nick Redfern titled, The Real Men In Black. A book we highly recommend if you’re interested in this type of phenomena.

Every single year the topic of UFOs continues to gain traction with regards to credibility and evidence.

A lot of information has emerged over the past few years that has taken these subjects out of the ‘conspiracy theory’ realm and into ones of serious inquiry.

This particular story originates from the US government's Stargate Program, which lasted more than two decades.

The program studied various topics within the dimensions of parapsychology, such at telepathy, psychokensis, remote viewing and more.

It’s an excellent example of unacknowledged and waived Secret Access Programs. These programs do not exist publicly, but they do indeed exist.

They are commonly referred to as ‘deep black programs.’ A 1997 US Senate report described them as “so sensitive that they are exempt from standard reporting requirements to the Congress.” (source)

A gentlemen by the name if Ingo Swann (seen in the picture above) was one of multiple main participants within the program within ‘special abilities.’ (source)

Before we go any further, it’s important to note that US intelligence agencies have had a heavy interest in this type of thing for a long time.

Here and here are a few more examples that illustrate this point further. You can learn more about how they link to the CIA here.

Ingo Swann

Swann was able to successfully describe and view a ring around Jupiter before scientists had no idea it existed.

This took place precisely before the first ever flyby of Jupiter by NASA’s Pioneer 10 spacecraft, which confirmed that the ring did actually exist. These results were published in advance of the rings’ discovery. (source)

This was one of many successful ‘hits’ that came out of the Remote Viewing program. It was quite a successful program, which is why it ran for 25 years.

A lot of controversy surrounded its termination, and who knows how much of what these findings uncovered remain classified.

United States Major General, Albert Stubblebine, was a major proponent of these programs, and one of America’s most distinguished soldiers with more than than 16,000 soldiers under his command.

He said that they uncovered structures on the surface of Mars, as well as on the interior that were not built by humans.

What was not published in the literature, after it was declassified, were Swann’s experiences in the world of intelligence.

He did, however, write a book called Penetration where he detailed some of his experiences, and many of them dealt with UFOs as well as extraterrestrials.

Much of Swann’s time during this period was spent at the Stanford Research Institute where the remote viewing program was headquartered under the watch of scientists Hal Puthoff and Russell Targ, the authors of some of the studies cited above.

In his book, he describes a gentlemen who he calls Mr. Axelrod, a secretive government agent obviously belonging to some intelligence agency.

The Story

One day, this man entered into the secured facility at Stanford, which was not an easy thing to do. He found Swann and persuaded him to leave with him.

Axelrod was accompanied by two twins, who were very tall and mysterious. They dressed in the typical ‘cloak and dagger’ intelligence agency outfit.

Swann described them as “two blond haired, blue eyed, military looking assistants.”

The four of them flew to the west coast where Swann believed it to be the Alaskan wilderness, although he wasn’t certain and was told that it’s best he did not know.

They were flying in a learjet and found an area deep in the forest which seemed to be for their own use. They trekked a very long time.

Richard Dolan, one of the world’s foremost authorities on the topic of UFOs, describes the incident well in his book, UFOs & The National Security State, The Cover-Up Exposed 1973-1991, so I will quote it from here on in starting on page 154:

“They came to a small lake, and Axelrod said that as dawn approached, Swann would be able to see “it” through the pines. ‘We now wait and hope we are lucky. Say nothing, do not make any noise…they detect heat, noise, motion like mad.” 

“Dawn arrived, and Swann saw a fog developing over the lake. This went on for five minutes, until the fog developed a luminous neon-blue color. 

“Then, according to Swann, the color changed to an “angry purple” Axelrod and one of the twins each placed a hand firmly on Swann’s shoulders while “a network of purple, red, and yellow lightning bolts shot in all crazy directions through the ‘cloud.’ 

“Swann said he would have jumped if the two had not held him down. He saw an object, almost transparent at first, but then “solidly visible over the lake.” It was triangular or diamond-shaped, growing in size.” 

“Swann, in terror and amazement, heard a strong wind moving past, rustling the pine trees so much that some cones and branches fell on them.

“The object then began to shoot out ‘ruby red laster-like beams’ as it continued to grow even more in size while maintaining its position on the lake. Very quietly, one of the twins said, ‘Shit! They’re enveloping the area. They’re going to spot us.” 

“As Swann later recalled the event, some of the red laser beams from the object were ‘blasting’ pine trees, and he could hear low frequency pulsations. Axelrod whispered to Swann that the beams were probably honing in on deer or other forest creatures, as they sense biological body heat. 

“‘They’re sure to hone in on us,’ he told Swann. Just then, one of the twins literally lifted and dragged Swann away, but not before Swann noticed the water of the lake surging upward, ‘like a waterfall going upward, as if being sucked into the ‘machine.’” 

“The four ran quickly and at great length, sustaining minor cuts and bruises. Eventually they stopped, breathing hard, and waited for more than thirty minutes, until one of the twins said all was clear.” 

“Axelrod then asked Swann whether he could ‘sense’ anything form the craft.”

At this point it’s quite obvious why Swann was taken from his position and role at Stanford Research Institute and into this situation.

It seemed that these ‘government’ agents believed Swann could provide some detail about what was happening here and help the government with their research and interest in UFOs.

“Swann burst out laughing. ‘You’re completely nuts, Axel! I have to be calm, cool, collected and in good shape to sense anything.’ But Swann offered the insight that the craft was ‘a drone of some kind, unmanned, controlled from somewhere else.”

Axelrod asked him what it was doing there, to which Swann replied ‘Well, for chrissakes! It was thirsty!

Taking on water, obviously. Someone, somewhere needs water… so I suppose they just come and get it. You don’t need to be a psychic to see that.’

Essentially, said Swann, ‘they’ treated Earth as the neighbourhood supermarket.’

“Before taking Swann back, Axelrod said, ‘I shouldn’t tell you, but our mission will be disbanded shortly and the work picked up by others, because of strategic security reasons involved…’
‘Others,’ said Swann, ‘who will not mix in with psychics, I take it.’ ‘You got it,’ Axelrod replied. Swann last saw Axelrod at the San Jose Airport, and never heard from him again.”

Below is a video of Ingo Speaking about a few of his experiences within the program, and what it was like. He was a very bright man with tremendous amounts of insight.

It’s not the easiest thing to understand, but I thought it was important to share a video of him with you after writing this article, it’s full of a number of interesting revelations.

Here we have a very interesting discovery made by Joseph Gormanly of Mars Alive Facebook Group.

in this video we see 2 types of humanoid beings, I have mentioned this in previous videos, there are various sizes of life forms on Mars.

The smaller humanoid, we can see that he is holding something in his hand, looks like a gun or some type of weapon?

the larger being is down flat on his face. Did the Rover kill this small humanoid Being?

With the cost of 2.5 billion US, it wouldn't surprise me if NASA has equipped Curiosity Rover with some kind of self-defense weapon so that no life form gets too close and tries to disable the rover.

NASA always adds a fake yellowish color tint on top of all their images so that everything blends into the environment, so that nothing out of the ordinary stands out. to make everything just look like rocks laying around on the surface of Mars, they want us to believe Mars is dead and dry.

A teenage girl has died after she was allegedly told to do 100 deep squats by her manager for being late for work.

The girl, whose nickname is Xiao Fei, came home feeling unwell after she was punished for being late for work at the end of July, her father, Mr Jiang, told Guangdong Television Broadcast.

Xiao Fei had been working at Sunny Garden office, which belongs to Qfang real estate agency, in Zhongshan, China.

She told her father she was asked by her manager to do 100 deep squats in the morning

‘My daughter was not feeling well after and bought some medicine. But she cannot move her legs,’ said Mr Jiang.

Her mother claimed she was not able to lift up her hands and then went into a state of unconsciousness. She passed away in the intensive care unit over a week later on August 7.

Medical notes shown to a reporter indicated that the girl died from respiratory failure.

In the doctor’s notes, Xiao Fei was diagnosed with very rare Guillain–Barré syndrome although there was no suggestion it was linked to squatting.

Guillain–Barré syndrome can cause numbness, pain and muscle weakness and result in death in around one in every 20 cases.

Xiao Fei, 15, had taken the job to earn money to help her father pay off medical bills.

A manager at Sunny Garden, surnamed Li, told Guangdong Television Broadcast that Xiao Fei had done squats but not as a punishment.

He said: ‘She (Xiao Fei) volunteered to do deep squats. We are divided in teams here, and rules are set by their team leaders,’

The company said it was not aware Xiao Fei was under age and that she had stolen an identity card to apply for the job.

Despite the Bible being a religious text, scientists have occasionally turned their microscopes and measuring sticks on its contents — with some surprising results.

7. Blood Red Nile

In the Book of Exodus, the Egyptian empire is beset by the plague — 10 plagues, to be exact. Animals behave oddly, and the sky turns black. Even more alarming, the river fills with blood. Everything in that bloody river dies.

Clearly, it’s not possible for a river to start bleeding, but scientists believe the plague in question may have been a red algae bloom. A very real phenomenon, “red tides” are a collection of algae packed so densely the plants discolor water. The blooms are caused by a variety of environmental factors, including warming water and excess nutrients like fertilizer. What’s more, red tides kill — just like the Book of Exodus says the bloody Nile did — with their natural toxins and oxygen-depleting decomposition.

6. A Plague of Locusts

Another nasty aspect of the Exodus were the locusts.

See, short-horned grasshoppers are typically innocuous little things, hopping around, bothering no one. But in times of severe drought, they can undergo a horrible metamorphosis. Triggered by serotonin in their brains, grasshoppers can become locusts — the Jekyll to the grasshopper’s Dr. Hyde. In this new state, locusts breed like crazy, sprout strong wings that can power them for miles, and start to swarm. In groups, they can block out the sun.

Though we haven’t seen too many plagues in recent years, swarms of locusts have been common throughout history. It’s safe to say these tiny terrors definitely messed with ancient Egyptians.

5. Parting the Red Sea

As the plagues are raining down, the Israelites decide to flee from the Egyptians and, let’s be real, it wasn’t going well.

That is, until Moses, the original Prince of Egypt himself, split the Red Sea in half, allowing the Israelites to run across to safety before the water rebounded, crashing over the Egyptians and stopping them in their tracks.

Computer simulations suggest this was actually possible. In 2010, an article published in the journal PLOS ONE suggested that a natural phenomenon could have parted the Red Sea. If wind blows hard enough, water can recede from its usual shoreline, exposing land that’s typically awash. Using a computer modeling tool, the researchers were able to show that at one site in the Nile, the right blustery wind could have created a land bridge 2.5 miles long and 3 miles wide, sustaining it for four hours.

4. The Canaanites Are All Right

Deuteronomy 20:17 instructed the Israelites to “completely destroy them — the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites — as the LORD your God has commanded you.” And the Israelites listened, destroying their enemies.

Or so the Bible said.

But a July 2017 paper published in the American Journal of Human Geneticspresents compelling evidence that the Canaanites survived 30276-8), and that their descendants are thriving in modern Lebanon, according to a historical genome constructed from Canaanite corpses, which were compared to the DNA of 99 modern Lebanese people. According to the study, the vast majority of the DNA tested in the modern Lebanese individuals came from the Canaanites, suggesting someone didn’t follow through with God’s commands.

3. Gigantism

It’s been immortalized in art for millennia, but what does science have to say about Goliath and his puny, but triumphant, friend David?

Well, for much of human history, people were pretty short. While the average American man today is pushing 5 feet 10 inches, for much of human history the average dude hovered around 5 feet 5 inches. So it’s no wonder that Goliath, reportedly 6 feet 9 inches tall and thirsty for blood, scared the crap out of everyone.

Though he’s since become a relic of history — a parable about overestimating the strong and undervaluing the weak — he definitely could have existed. Some have ventured to guess he was just a guy with gigantism, a disorder typically caused by overproduction of human growth hormones that causes people to grow to an uncommon size. In contrast to some plagued by this disorder, like Robert Pershing Wadlow, who was 8 feet 11 inches when he died, Goliath is downright puny.

2. The Voice of God

God talks a lot in the Bible, which, fair, since it’s his book. But how could anyone — scribes or prophets — hear the big man upstairs? Well, they probably couldn’t. But that doesn’t mean they weren’t hearing something.

Auditory hallucinations, where people hear sounds that aren’t actually there, are actually fairly common in the general population. One study of more than 13,000 participants in Europe indicated that almost 40 percent of people have had an auditory hallucination in their life. Another study, published in the Scandinavian Journal of Psychology in 2015, suggests seven percent of people have experienced auditory voice hallucinations, or hearing voices that aren’t there.

Some of the people in either study may have had mental health issues or been influenced by past drug use, of course, but it was by no means all of them. And while those sounds and voices take many different forms, it’s possible some people interpret the stimuli as the voice of God.

1. Sometimes the Dead Aren’t Actually Dead

Coming back to life is prime content for the Bible — it happened at least twice in the New Testament alone. One of the lucky resurrected was Lazarus.

In the Gospel of John, Jesus gets word that his friend Lazarus of Bethany is dying. But he doesn’t rush to his side. By the time Jesus finally shows up, Lazarus has been dead for four days and is already buried. Nobody wants to dig Lazarus up — the truly dead reek — but Jesus insists. “Lazarus, come out!” he yells and, what do you know, the formerly dead dude pops back to life, good as new.

While this might seem like one of the more outlandish biblical stories to you, a scientifically-minded skeptic, the medical marvel aptly named the Lazarus Phenomenon is actually real.

In 2007, an article published in the Journal of the Royal Society of Medicinecompiled 38 documented cases of “delayed return of spontaneous circulation”. In other words, 38 cases in which people’s hearts appeared to stop, before, uh, un-stopping. Granted, most of these people returned to life in 10 minutes (not four days), and the majority did eventually die from stopping their hearts, but maybe it’s worth a holler of “come out!” before the burial — or at least politely bury your loved ones in a “safety coffin” equipped with a bell should they prove to be, you know, alive.

If you thought looking at the eclipse was bad, this is worse. Kids of any and all ages and guys drinking beer with friends in need of entertainment – DON’T try this at home. A man in northern India (where else, other than Florida?) claims he has the ability to draw energy directly from an electrical socket and thus needs no food to survive. If the opening warning wasn’t enough, even Frankenstein’s monster thought this was too risky.

“Whenever I feel hungry and there’s no food in the house I hold naked wires and within half an hour I’m satisfied. I eat electricity like it’s food. In fact, it helps my energy levels.”

Naresh Kumar, a 42-year-old resident of Muzzafarnagar in Uttar Pradesh, has been calling himself the Human Light Bulb (what else?) ever since he discovered by accident that he could touch a live electrical wire without killing himself or getting burned. This was a relief to his employer since he made this discovery at work.

Let’s stop here for a moment and talk about electrocution. Death by electricity occurs when an electric current of a certain voltage or higher flows through the body on a path that includes a vital organ, like the heart. Currents as low as 30 mA (milliamps) over a sustained period can stop the heart. Currents over 1 A also cause permanent burns and cellular damage. Wall sockets in the US (the 120 volt variety) are either 15 or 20 amps. You do the math.

According to India.com and a video from Cover Asia Press, Naresh Kumar claims he connects himself to live electrical wires for up to 30 minutes at a time, usually when he’s hungry, although he can probably be persuaded if you have a camera or offer money.

“I can touch any electrical appliance like a television, washing machine, fridge, and an inverter with my bare hands and it doesn’t affect me. In fact, it helps my energy levels. I think about 80 per cent of my body is composed of electricity now.”

Thirty minutes per meal? Is that eating or gorging? Neither the article nor the video show a doctor or an electrician examining Naresh to verify this or his ability to hold a live wire without harm (even though verification would be easy since he works at a hospital). The only reference he offers is his wife, who doesn’t seem too thrilled to be Mrs. Human Light Bulb.

“There are no switches, and sometimes my children and I fear we’ll get an electric shock. But because he’s obsessed with touching naked wires they are left like this. He even uses his bare hands to switch different appliances on and off.”

That’s where Mr. Bulb’s story loses some of its spark. The video shows him putting wires in his mouth that are attached to bulbs or appliances that appear to be on. However, he doesn’t show an example of where the appliance is off and he completes the circuit with his body, turning the light or the washer on. Nor does he just stick his finger in a socket, a feat that would be solid proof and pretty impressive. He shows a young boy holding a voltage meter to various body parts but that’s not much proof and could easily be faked. Finally, there’s no evidence presented on how he lives entirely on electricity without consuming any food. Does he use the bathroom? Does he need to turn on the light or is he self-illuminating? What happens if he gets into a bath tub with his wife?

Nevertheless, the ability to be a human light bulb – or more correctly, a human electrical wire – is possible. There are plenty of examples of people surviving large electrical currents or getting hit by lightning. But daily? Sorry, Mr. Human Light Bulb. We need more evidence before you can shock us.

In What Language Did GOD Write The Ten Commandments

“The Ten Commandments should have been written down in Ancient Egyptian language, but that was not the case. So where is the missing link?”

Did the god of the Israelites deliver the so-called Ten Commandments to Moses orally or in a written form? The Bible clearly says in several places that he did indeed write the Ten Commandments himself (with his own finger). The clearest verse in regards to this is found in (Ex 31:18).

But then, why did the god of the Israelites have to go to such trouble as to write down the Ten Commandments himself?

What was so special about those ten laws particularly that they advocated common ethics ancient man had already come to know and value – including the idea of one supreme God – through social evolution and not by divine revelation?
Ironically, the man god chose to carry his laws which strongly abhorred the act of killing and stealing, was already a killer and later a warlord who ordered the killing of so many innocent people after having stolen their native land. That leaves one wondering whether those commandments had any moral mandate that should have deterred the children of Israel from committing the war crimes they did in the name of invading/occupying their so called “Promised Land”.

Moreover, most ancient cultures had codes of ethics more or less similar to the Hebrew Ten Commandments, and surprisingly, other cultures had far superseded them.

Ancient Egypt had long abided by 42 moral commandments – known as the laws of Ma’at, written at least 2,000 years before the time of Moses. Ma’at is the Egyptian principle of truth, righteousness and order. Compared to the Egyptian moral laws, the Ten Commandments seem a bit too little and much too late.

Most importantly, what was the language that the god of the Israelites used while chiseling down his tablets and also during his long conversations with Moses? Did the god of the Israelites use Chinese, Greek or Ancient Hebrew as the consensus of biblical scholars tends to believe.

What was the point the Israelite god wanted to make by chiseling down his commandments on stone, rather than articulating them verbally to Moses, as he did the rest of Torah? If those tablets were so divine and holy how did Moses have the guts – no matter what the reason was – to smash them into pieces the minute he descended from the mountain where he had a long chat with his god? Or maybe Moses destroyed those holy tablets because anger management (a value commended by ancient sages) was somehow not included in those Ten Commandments?

Rendering the Ten Commandments in a written form seems kind of strange considering that at the time of the story of the Exodus from Egypt no Israelite slave was literate in Ancient Hebrew or in any other ancient language for that matter.

So why did the god of the Israelites insist on writing down his commandments for an illiterate, aggressive and ungrateful mob of the Israelites?
As a matter of fact, the Paleo-Hebrew alphabet did not evolve before 1000 BC – some three centuries after the time of Moses and his tablets. The language structure is relatively similar to the Ancient Hebrew, which was about to arise around 1000 BC, but the symbols were not Hebrew, they were from an earlier set of pictograph symbols of Ancient Arabian/Yemenite writing.

So, what was the purpose of delivering God’s commandments inscribed on stone tablets when no one could have read them, including Moses who was purportedly raised and educated according to the Egyptian tradition and tongue?

If Moses was (as the misconception/myth goes) brought up as a high-ranking Egyptian he was probably literate only in Ancient Egyptian.

The Hebrews couldn’t have read or written hieroglyphs proper, because that was a closely guarded skill that required years of training and was the exclusive realm of a select class of scribes, usually drawn from elite Egyptian families.

Although no archaeological evidence has ever been recovered to attest to such an event of an Exodus or enslavement in Egypt, but, if the story of Moses did happen in Ancient Egypt, then the Ten Commandments as well as the rest of the Mosaic laws should have been written down in Ancient Egyptian language. But that was not the case according to the scholarly consensus. So where is the missing link?

When Moses was not in Egypt before the Exodus, he was with Midianites not Hebrews. The fact that Moses, after fleeing Egypt, was able to easily communicate/converse with Midianites means that the people of Ancient Egypt and Midian spoke the same tongue, but historically that is not true either.

A (mistaken) consensus among historians views Midian as an Arabian tribe/confederation of tribes that dwelled in the North-Western part of Ancient Arabia. But historians were not mistaken as they identified the Midianites as an Arabian tribe but only when they conveniently located them at the North of the Arabian Peninsula (near Egypt). Whereas according to Ancient Arabian tradition and records the original site of Midian had long been at the West-Southern part of the Arabian Peninsula and specifically at Ancient Yemen. The mountain of Jethro/Shu-ayb (Moses’ Midianite father-in-law) still stands in Yemen as the most prominent peak in the whole Arabian Peninsula.

If the Midianites were Ancient Arabian tribes then they must have spoken some kind of Ancient Arabian language/dialect.

Did Moses speak Ancient Egyptian and Ancient Arabian language, most unlikely. Then, how could that anachronism be straightened out?

Moreover did god speak to Moses in Ancient Egyptian language or in Ancient Arabian tongue? (And please spare me the patronizing voices that will claim that Moses and his god conversed in some unearthly divine dialect — because even the most fundamentalist rabbinical authorities never went that far).

If at the purported time of the Exodus story no written alphabet/written language had yet evolved in the Ancient Near East — except the Egyptian, the Sumerian and the Ancient Arabian/Yemenite, then what was the most likely language the Israelite god used to chisel down his (so-called) Ten Commandments? Of course both the Sumerian and Egyptian seemed highly unlikely.

That would leave us with only one possibility; the Ten Commandments must have been written down in Ancient Yemenite.

Interestingly not very far away from Yemen, the Orthodox Church and priesthood of Modern Ethiopia are adamant that their land has always kept the Arc of the Covenant, something the whole world has long deemed lost and irretrievable.

But that conclusion would dramatically shift the geography of the Exodus story from Ancient Egypt to Ancient Arabia and Yemen. Though it might seem a bit of a stretch for many, but Ancient Arabia and Yemen is actually where the ancient Israelites had originally dwelled and where their stories and legends evolved including that of the Exodus.

We must admit that our world is home to some spectacular currencies. Take the example of the iconic US Dollar. The color, the font, are nothing short of being iconic. One can just recognise the US Dollar bill by its color. Over the years, we as humans developed many complex currencies and that’s because every nation wants its own.

A currency bill is not just a note, it is in some cases a portal of history. The currencies are unique to a particular nation and act as a status symbol.

Every sovereign nation ensures that its currency is unique, and has hidden symbols. Some, have hidden words as well.

WittyFeed tells you about 6 currencies, which carry a hidden meaning. Some of them even relate to the mystical Illuminati!

Is your currency on the list?

Canada

After death of King George VI in 1952 in England, Elizabeth sat on the throne. As a result, the Commonwealth countries had to extend their support by displaying images of the new ruler on their currency. In Canada’s case, the queen had a hidden demon on her head.

A demon

It was in 1954. Canadians were shocked when they noticed that a sinister devil was behind the queen’s ear. The note created such a controversy that it had to be withdrawn after two years.

£5 note

Although this note ceases to be legal tender and has been replaced by the new note featuring Winston Churchill, this note also had a hidden symbol.

Hidden reptilian

On the note’s reverse side, it seemed that there was a hidden reptilian. Reptilians are considered more intelligent than humans and people still debate whether it’s a mere coincidence or some conspiracy that the reptilian appeared on the currency note.

Seychelles Rupee

The small country of Seychelles in East Africa, which includes over 100 islands, had an interesting word mentioned in their currency.

Seychelles Rupee

God knows what they were thinking when they were designing the palm leaves but we presume that it was a coincidence that its leaves resemble the word ‘se*’. They don’t see to shy away from promiscuity, did they?

€5 note

The €5 note in all its glory is minimalist and spectacular to look at. Just the way EU wanted Europe to be. But did you know what the bridge denoted?

The bridge

The back of the note showcases a bridge, which is connecting two distant banks, which ones, no one knows. It is said that the bridge pillars are equivalent to Isis and Osiris, the mythological characters that connect Earth and Heaven, and the humans to the spiritual state.

$1 bill

Of course, how can we not include the most famous currency on our list? In fact, the $1 bill holds not one, not two but THREE secrets. Let’s get em cracking!

The first and by far the most famous one is The Illuminati sign. The pyramid with the eye, that’s the Illuminati sign. It is said that by having the sign on $1 bill, the Freemasons are secretly manipulating people who control the government.

Secret 2: The triforce

So you thought Illuminati symbolism would go away that easily? Think again. On the front of the bill, a Triforce is shown. The Triforce is a sacred relic used by the masons and it consists of three triangles, each depicting wisdom, power, and courage respectively.

Secret 3: The owl

Next time you have $1 bill in your hand, try to spot the owl. It is said that the owl represents the bohemian society trying to control the masses. Others think that the owl is used as a warning for hidden symbols on the bill

Secret 4: Great Seal of United States

Whoa! You didn’t expect that, did you? What if we tell you that the nine feathers beneath the Eagle represent nine spheres turning towards heaven. Moreover, the 32 feathers of the eagle on the right represent the number of degrees of Scottish Rite Freemasonry.

The 9/11 series

This one really blew our mind. It is said that the currency was issued by the New World Order prophecising the 9/11 attacks. The notes if folded in an appropriate manner, as shown in the image, would reveal five episodes of 9/11 attacks.

Episode 1: The twin towers – intact

Episode 2: The towers with one building hit.

Episode 3: The towers with both buildings hit.

Episode 4: The towers start falling.

Episode 5: The towers almost demolished.

£5 note

The old note made way for this one that features Winston Churchill. Even this note has some hidden symbolism.

Look carefully at the Big Ben and tell us what time you see? It’s 3 O Clock but do you know the reason behind the timing? The reason that time is mentioned is because this was the time in 1940 when he made the famous – “I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears, and sweat” – speech.

The quake struck as Hurricane Irma smashed into the Carribean, killing at least 14 people. Thousands of people in the American state of Florida are evacuating as they prepare for "devastation" when the deadly weather phenomenon strikes.

In the footage filmed moments after the 8.1 magnitude quake struck, mysterious blue and green flashes light up the sky above Mexico City.

The terrifying clip left many viewers stunned – with several questioning how the bizarre phenomenon had occurred.

“It’s like the Northern Lights – but chilling,” one viewer said.

But another commented: “It’s our alien overlords coming to take over.”

The bizarre lights have left many confused as very little is known about why they occur.

Some questioned whether the lights were a result of power supplies being hit while others claim they have been reported for thousands of years.

Thousands of people fled into the streets after the huge quake struck close to the city.

Many took to Twitter to describe the chaos and devastation to homes, roads and buildings.

Widespread power cuts have also been reported, with the damage expected to be extensive.

WATCH THE VIDEO:

The Mexican capital was previously struck by an 8.0 magnitude earthquake in 1985, which killed about 5,000 people and razed buildings to the ground.

The powerful natural phenomenon also triggered a tsunami warning for at least eight countries surrounding Mexico.

Huge waves are expected to smash Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Panama, Honduras and Ecuador.

World renowned physicist Dr. Michio Kaku made a shocking confession on live TV when he admitted that HAARP is responsible for the recent spate of hurricanes.

In an interview aired by CBS, Dr. Kaku admitted that recent ‘made-made’ hurricanes have been the result of a government weather modification program in which the skies were sprayed with nano particles and storms then “activated” through the use of “lasers”.

The HAARP base transmission is in Gakona, Alaska, where a network of 180 antennas installed facing the sky acts as a powerful high-frequency radio transmitter capable of producing 10 megawatts of power and changing the composition layer of ionosphere 50 km above the surface of the Earth. In 1999, the European Parliament issued a resolution stating that the HAARP Project manipulated the environment for military purposes.

In 2002, the Russian Parliament presented to President Vladimir Putin a report signed by 90 MPs from the International and Defense Relations committees where he claims that the HAARP Project is a new “geophysical weapon” capable of manipulating the low earth atmosphere.

Six employees of a fertility clinic in the city of Lanzhou, in the Northwestern Chinese province of Gansu, received sentences ranging from 8 to 25 years in prison after they were found guilty of using pig semen to fertilize dozens of women.

Between June 2016 and March 2017, a total of 86 women who had paid 50,000 yuán ($7,700) to be inseminated with sperm from “candidates carefully selected from the Chinese elite” were instead fertilized with swine semen.

Only 4 of these women actually got pregnant, and all of them miscarried before the end of their pregnancies.

DEFORMED FETUSES

One of these aborted fetuses was so deformed a doctor who saw it demanded an autopsy, and it was revealed that the embryo was part human and part animal.

A police investigation then led to the discovery of an unusual fraud involving the Rhinoceros Horn Fertility Clinic and six of its employees.

They discovered that the clinic was purchasing pig semen from farmers in a nearby village and using it to fertilize its customers.

During the investigation of the clinic’s dozens of refrigerated containers, the scientific police discovered over 80 samples of pig semen.

The animal semen was labeled was labeled as “platinum quality” and, surprisingly, sold at a higher price than “regular quality” human semen.

Six employees of the clinic were arrested in March and all of them were found guilty yesterday by the Lanzhou state court.

EXEMPLARY SENTENCES

The director of the clinic, Mr. Wong Hu Chan, was sentenced to 25 years of imprisonment for his responsibility in the fraud.

He admitted in his testimony that he had planned this unusual scheme in order to cope with the constant shortages of “high-quality semen”, which is hard to find in China.

The clinic’s two doctors were respectively sentenced to 15 years and 20 in prison, while two of the nurses were sentenced to ten years and one to eight years.

Four other employees of the clinic had first been suspected, but the investigation showed that they were not aware of the scheme.

Mr. Wong Hu Chan, the director of the clinic, was sentenced to 25 years in prison for his role in the crimes.

Fertility clinics are barely regulated in China and a handful of other disturbing incidents have occurred over the last few years.

In 2011, a fertility clinic in Shanghai was found guilty of diluting its semen with a mix of yak milk and bat guano, a mixture that is believed to improve fertility according to traditional Chinese medicine.

In that particular case, four women had died from infections linked to the mixture and the doctor who had performed the interventions was sentenced to death.

Nearly 2 years ago, the University of Miami spent roughly $45 million on an indoor laboratory with the ability to produce actual hurricanes, with up to category 5 level windspeeds, reaching over 157 miles per hour (252 kilometers per hour).

The lab is given the acronym “SUSTAIN”: short for SUrge STructure Atmosphere INteraction. It is composed of a 75 foot long, 30,000 gallon capacity acrylic water tank, equipped with a 1,700-horsepower fan and a 12-paddle wave generator. Together, the tools in the lab can create a wide range of weather conditions, waves, and other reactions alleged to be for the purpose of studying hurricanes.

However, the academic institutions in America, most of them work for the Military Industrial Complex. The science of weather warfare, or geoengineering was perfected at institutions like MIT, with defense contractors such as Raytheon and the MITRE corporation working in conjunction with academic institutions and the US government.

Understanding the relationship between academic institutions and the military, geoengineering researchers have had good reason to wonder if the recent hurricanes were engineered or altered with geoengineering technology.

According to the SUSTAIN lab director and oceanographer Brian Haus:

We can create the equivalent of a hurricane with winds over 200 miles-per-hour. That’s an off-the-charts Category 5.

That means the SUSTAIN lab can be configured to try and recreate past historical storms. Scientists allege this gives them the opportunity to measure wind and wave patterns for hurricanes that have long passed.

If the tools are really that accurate, it’s a huge testament to the precision of geoengineering technology.

According to Science Alert:

They can also monitor the differences between different categories of storm and ultimately advise governments and authorities on the best ways to tackle them, thanks to the data pulled from the lab. 

There are various different uses for the specialized hardware inside the SUSTAIN lab: testing the resilience of model houses and buildings, for example, studying how sea spray affects the growing intensity of a storm (due to the transfer of heat from the water to the atmosphere as spray is generated) and also tracking the way carbon dioxide moves from the ocean to the air during a hurricane. 

The University of Miami of course, is currently being struck with a gigantic hurricane.
While this particular effort to recreate hurricanes seems a lot more innocent than the activity of geoengineering such as David Keith, it is concerning, and indicative of how fully developed the science of geoengineering is.

A pedophile priest from the UK who was found guilty of raping young children for over 20 years poured gasoline over himself and set himself on fire.

This was to ‘burn away the sins’ of his horrendous actions…

The charred remains of Rev. Martyn Neale, 60, were discovered in the grounds of his church, after an investigation by Police that uncovere his ‘unprecedented’ historical sex crimes.

The body was found by his sister Janis Chandler only minutes after he set himself on fire and ran around the village of Hawley, Hampshire, screaming in pain from his self-torture.

Residents of the village are now demanding to know how the priest had been able to slip under the radar and allowed to get away with his heinous crimes for more than 20 years.

The Mirror reports:
North East Hampshire Coroner Andrew Bradley said the allegations against Mr Neale had “clearly weighed on him”, regardless of whether they were true or not.

A post-mortem found his body was covered in “near-total third degree burns and blackening by soot”, and he could only be identified by dental records.

The inquest heard Ms Chandler had arranged the previous evening for Mr Neale to pick her up so they could spend the day with their parents.

After attempting to contact him throughout the day, she went to find her brother at Hawley Vicarage in Blackwater, Hampshire, where he lived, at around 4pm.

She said:

“I have a key, so I let myself in after getting no answer on the doorbell. I went in. He wasn’t there so I had a look around. His cars were parked outside. I noticed that the back door was unlocked as the chain was dangling.

I went into the garden and, as I turned right, I saw the petrol can. I walked further and I just saw something on the ground that was burned. I was not sure at first, but I realised it was a body when I got nearer. I could see it was a body because there was a face and it was face down.”

Ms Chandler then phoned the police, who attended and were able to take control of the situation.

She said her brother would “help anyone” and said they were “a very close family”, seeing each other almost every day.

Detective Constable Matt Deery, of Basingstoke CID, told the inquest at Basingstoke Coroner’s Court, Hants, today that Mr Neale, who had been the vicar in Hawley for 20 years, was arrested and interviewed on July 17 in connection with historic sexual offences.

DC Deery said Mr Neale, who was not married and lived alone, was released without charge on unconditional bail following the interview, but said there was “an ongoing investigation” still underway.

Ms Chandler said her brother “had not spoken” about the allegations against him, but said she knew he had been suspended by the Church.

Coroner Mr Bradley said Mr Neale “effectively incinerated himself” in his garden against the backdrop of alleged sexual offences.

He added:
“I do not and cannot look at these other than as allegations made. The relevance of them is that they have been made.”
Mr Bradley, recording a conclusion of suicide, added Mr Neale died as a result of “extensive third degree burns”.

He said:

“Whether the allegations are true or false is not a matter for me, but they have been made and they clearly weighed on him. It is a straightforward matter, but of a tortured soul. He was under investigation for historic sexual offences.

I merely note this as a relevant factor. The verdict I enter is that he killed himself. Please accept my sympathy. It is a matter of such sadness. As much as one may sensationalise it, this is a personal loss.”

Mysterious 17th-Century Coded Letter Written By A Nun ‘Possessed By The Devil’ Is Finally Translated

A CREEPY letter which a "possessed" Italian nun insisted was from Satan has finally been translated - and its message is truly devilish.
Scientists from Ludum Science Centre in Catania, Sicily have decoded its nonsensical message, which describes God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit as "dead weights".

Sister Maria Crocifissa della Concezione, wrote the letter in 1676, claiming the devil used her hands.

After she entered the Benedictine convent in Palma di Montechiaro at the tender age of 15, she woke up one morning to discover the mysterious letter.

She told her sisters she had been possessed by the devil and he forced her to write it.

The nuns believed her and displayed the letter at the convent, hoping someone will be able to make sense of its code.

But after 340 years, only the group of Italian scientists have succeeded.

Using code-breaking software found on the dark web, the team confirmed its devilish message.

One sentence reads: "God thinks he can free mortals."

Another says God was invented by man and that "this system works for no one".

It goes on to say: "Perhaps now, Styx is certain" - referencing the River Styx that separates the Earth and the Underworld in Greek and Roman mythology.

Daniele Abata, director of the centre told The Times: "We heard about the software, which we believe is used by intelligence services for code-breaking.

"We primed the software with ancient Greek, Arabic, the Runic alphabet and Latin to unscramble some of the letter and show that it really is devilish."

The scientists say the letter is not entirely consistent or understandable.
This supports the theory that Sister Maria suffered from schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, slamming her claims that she was "possessed by the devil".

Russian Snake Expert Live Streams His Final Moments After Letting His Deadly Pet Black Mamba Bite Him

A well-known Russian snake expert filmed himself dying on a live stream broadcast after he let his pet black mamba bite his hand apparently brokenhearted over the breakup of his marriage.

In deeply disturbing footage, video blogger Arslan Valeev, 31, from St Petersburg, pleaded with viewers to call his ex-wife as he visibly deteriorated on camera and his limbs became numb.

The actual snake bite and moment of death were not shown, but the blogger – a former zoo employee – allowed viewers to see the bite on his hand.

At the end of the footage, he got up from his chair and staggered off camera, possibly towards a bathroom. He died soon afterwards.

He and wife Ekaterina ‘Katya’ Pyatyzhkina were famous in Russia for running several YouTube channels about snakes and their pet bobcats, with hundreds of thousands of followers.

Friends said that he had accused her of cheating on him.

Valeev beat her and she suffered concussion, it was reported.

He later repented and on 21 September publicly apologised to her for his behaviour, saying that their sexual relationship had ended in July.

She obtained a divorce from him after the domestic violence and was in a new relationship.

In the shocking live stream, he said: ‘Hi… So, guys… (sighs). It’s time to do what I must do. Live stream [unintelligible].’

The vlogger got up and went off camera, but a muffled sound of ‘ouch’ can be heard as the deadly snake bit him.

He returned telling viewers: ‘If I die, then I die.’

Then he said: ‘I just will stay with you for some time. Just in case – on my mobile there is a message for Katya….’

His breathing quickens, and his eyes started rolling.

‘Pass on to Katya that I loved her very much,’ he said, showing his bitten finger with blood on it.


‘Beautiful, isn’t it? Oh, damn, how it… Bye to everyone… I can’t believe it is happening to me…’

He then read out his former wife’s mobile number.

‘This is Katya’s number, if someone manages to call her, if she has time to come to me and see me, I would be happy.

‘In fact I’m already dying. Farewell. I would be glad to see Katya. Damn, I’m shaking.’

At least one viewer called an ambulance, which later arrived and rushed him to hospital, but medics were unable to save him.

On the broadcast, he showed his almost paralyzed hands but stood up and moved away, evidently to his bathroom as the video ended.

It was also claimed that he had stumbled into the street seeking help.

A day earlier he had announced a special broadcast with one of his ‘most beloved snakes’, called Mamba, giving no clue about his intentions.

A friend later posted online, claiming he had not intended to take his own life, but that it had been a mistake.

‘Turning on the camera, as normal, he went to get a snake out of the terrarium to move it into a plastic container used for broadcasts. In the process of doing this the snake bit him.

‘Being an expert in keeping poisonous snakes with 20 years experience, Arslan was aware of what would happen.

‘He left a message to his wife Ekaterina, and asked viewers who turned out to be eyewitnesses to get in touch with Katya, because his limbs began to get numb quickly, depriving him of the opportunity to call help himself.

‘Then he went out into the street, waiting for the arrival of help.’

In a previous video, Mr Valeev had spoken about his heartbreak

‘I cannot describe in words the extent of my disappointment with myself,’ he said.

‘I cannot describe the shock that I experience every day when I wake up in this new world without someone I have lost and deserved to lose, who I was with a couple of seconds ago in a dream.

‘If it makes you feel better, it hurts and I’m lonely.

‘I know what to do, I’ve heard a lot of advice, but the feeling of emptiness and a broken life can only pass with time.

‘Miracles do not happen, we do not live in a fairy tale.’

Mr Valeev’s ex-wife has not commented on the video.

The Most Expensive Fungus In The World: Dead Caterpillar That Sells For $50,000 USD A Pound

The most expensive fungus in the world isn’t any truffle or Mattake mushroom, it is a dead caterpillar fungus that grows in the Himalayas. They go for 50,000 USD a pound; compare that to the most expensive truffles which sell for up to 8,000 USD a pound. This expensive fungus (Ophiocordyceps sinensis) is called yartsa gunbu, which aside from sounding like a character in Star Wars, means “summer grass, winter worm” in Tibetan. They are prized as an aphrodisiac and status symbol.

What is it exactly?

The fungus is a parasite; it infects ghost moth caterpillars. The caterpillars live underground in alpine grass and shrub-lands on the Tibetan Plateau and the Himalayas at an altitude between 3,000 and 5,000 m (9,800 and 16,400 ft). They feed feed on roots underground and are more vulnerable to the fungus when they shed their skin in the late summer. This is also the time when the fungus releases its spores.

Once infected, the caterpillar goes upward and lies perpendicular to the surface. The fungus digests the inside of the larvae and eventually kills it. In the spring, a stalked fruiting body shoots out of the caterpillar’s head and can be visible on the surface of the ground. Altogether, it’s no bigger than a pinkie finger.

The collectors

The price of yartsa gunbu has increased exponentially in the past decade. This fungus that is more valuable than gold is collected yearly by poor villagers. Entire villages clear out in the spring as they go to high alpine fields to look for yartsa gunbu for several weeks. A good harvest can triple the yearly income of a Nepali. The average yearly income of villagers in the area is 247 USD so it’s unsurprising that the villagers are latching onto this fungus as an income booster. In some areas, one fungus is worth more than one day work for a manual laborer.

However, it can have negative effects too, such as creating conflicts between villagers. In November 2011, nineteen villagers were convicted of murdering seven farmers after foraging for the fungus.


A hot commodity

So why do people demand and pay so much for this fungus? Part of the answer is that it has been part of traditional Chinese medicine for centuries. The first mention of it was by a Tibetan doctor in the 15th century, in his text called “Instruction of a Myriad of Medicines”. The fungi were considered to have a very good balance of ying and yang because they were composed of an animal and a vegetable. They are also considered to have aphrodisiacal qualities, and are called the “Viagra of the Himalayas”. However, this claim does not have a scientific basis and has not been proven.

Most importantly, the fungus is now a status symbol. China is the main market for yartsa gunbu and the rich use it to show their influence. For example, they buy it to present to guests. The demand for yartsa gunbu has skyrocketed in the past decade. The reason could be that more people know about it and Chinese now have enough disposable income to spend, whereas previously they haven’t been able to afford it.

Effects on the environment

The harvest could be affecting the environment. Although the fungus has been collected for centuries, it has never been with such gusto as now. Perhaps fewer spores will then infect fewer caterpillars, producing less yartsa gunbu. Overharvesting has already made it an endangered species in China. Then the moth population might explode if they have no other predators. The collectors may also have a negative effect on the environment if they cut down too many trees for fuel or leave their trash around.

Climate change will negatively affect the harvest also by drying out the grasslands. With less food, the moth larvae won’t be able to survive so well and there will be fewer of them. The fungus is cultivated on grains and liquids in China, but no one has been able to cultivate it on caterpillars. If the harvesters want their fungal gold to last in the future they should harvest it sustainably and leave behind some fungi to release their spores.

A 31-year old woman was admitted to the University of Cincinnati Medical Center yesterday after the 14-month old toddler she was babysitting got stuck in her vaginal cavity.

Latifah Brown called 911 around 9:30 PM last night, reporting that she had a baby stuck in her vagina.

The operator first assumed that she was giving birth at home and dispatched an ambulance to the site.

The paramedics had quite a surprise when they arrived on the site and saw what was actually happening.

One of the paramedics, Brian Whitmore, related the incident in an interview with WBNS-10 TV.

“The little boy wore a diaper and pyjamas, but he had his legs and abdomen stuck in the woman’s vagina.”

The paramedics spent more than an hour on the site trying to release the child from his difficult position but were unable to get the toddler out.

“I don’t know how she got the child in there! We were both pulling as strong as we could and he wouldn’t come out.”

Ms. Brown and the child were finally transported to the hospital, where doctors were able to separate them after a delicate operation.

The young boy suffers from a dislocated hip, but doctors don’t think he will suffer any sequelae from the incident.

The babysitter was interrogated by police and confessed to deliberately inserting the child in her vaginal cavity.

She explained that she was feeling depressed after her doctor told her she could never have children and wanted to know how it felt to give birth.


Ms. Brown now faces a total of 11 criminal charges, including aggravated child neglect causing bodily harm, and could spend up to 65 years in prison.

Her lawyer has asked for a psychiatric evaluation, claiming that she isn’t fit to stand trial.

Depending on the results of the evaluation, her trial could begin in June.

FBI agents made an astonishing discovery this morning while executing a search warrant at the residence of a Houston mortician: 3,178 embalmed human penises.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation suspected 54-year old Dave Murray, an employee of the Harris County Morgue, of being implicated in an organ trafficking network.

Investigating several reports of missing organs and body parts, dozens of agents raided his residence this morning, hoping to find evidence of his involvement in the crimes.

What they found on the site was a lot more disturbing than what they expected, as the FBI spokesman Andy Ramirez described the scene in an interview with WNTV-4.

“There were shelves everywhere, filled with hundreds of glass jars. Each of them contained a penis floating in formalin.”

According to Agent Ramirez, the accused rapidly confessed everything as soon as he was arrested.

“He explained in great detail, how he had been cutting off dead men’s genital organs and collecting them for more than ten years.”

It took the FBI more than seven hours to gather all the organs and other pieces of evidence that were found on the site.

A total of 53 criminal charges have already been filed against Mr. Murray and hundreds more could be filed over the next few days.

An anonymous FBI source told WNTV-4 that the number of charges could reach over 3,000.


Dave Murray will remain in custody for the moment as a psychiatric evaluation has been ordered to determine if he’s fit to stand a trial.

If he is considered fit, he should appear in court in October for the beginning of the procedures.
