Sync Winks from the Eli-tes?

A rather crappy looking new show premieres this evening in the U.S. entitled "Eli Stone", and although that may seem to make for less than an interesting launching for an article...this one seems to have some teeth; at least considering the current syncs which have rather sleekly come together.


Multiple Eli's take the stage this week, will there be magick?

The show centers on a San Francisco attorney who is diagnosed with an inoperable brain aneurysm...along the way he begins to have visions, which appear to begin with singer George Michael mysteriously belting out his anthem "Faith" in Eli's living room. Each episode is titled for a different Michaels' song as well...not exactly my "cup of tea" but then upon closer examination I discovered that the first episode will also deal with the controversial topic of Mercury being a cause of Autism. The airing (tonight) of this episode seems to have hit a nerve within the medical community. A rather compelling topic from my perspective.




"Someone Knows too Much"

Was Hollywood dropping a rather unsubtle hint when they unleashed this stinker on the movie going public back in 1998? Linking Mercury and autism under the guise of a government secret, action-thriller...

A cryptographic code called "Mercury" was created by The National Security Agency, so complex that its creators believe no computer on earth can decipher it. Originally created during the Reagan Administration as a test to keep the United States' highest priority secrets under wraps, their assumption is revealed to be false when they receive a message from an autistic savant boy named Simon Lynch (Miko Hughes) who calls a telephone number written in the code, which was secretly published in a puzzle magazine by two of the creators to see if anyone could break it.

As Michael from GOSPORN (one of my favorite researchers) recently pointed out to me "sometimes my skeptical nature bares fruit"...I feel, I wouldn't be doing my duty properly if I wasn't looking at the world with a critical eye, and so Michael; this one is for you my friend.


I personally think the homosexual (for lack of a better description) iconography associated with "Eli Stone" is rather important here. Something seems to be directing our attention...as it draws us directly to Freddie Mercury (the legendary lead singer of Queen) who passed away from AIDS (yet another vaccine introduced disease) within 24-hours of his public disclosure on Nov. 23rd 1991. The AIDS based organization The Mercury Phoenix Trust was created in memory of Freddie. In conjunction, the passing of actor Heath Ledger (although most likely not from AIDS) just last week comes to mind as he began his career in 1996 playing a gay cyclist on the Australian TV show "Sweat" [Queen fans might also pick-up the "Bicycle" reference], as well as reaching the height of his popularity playing a gay cowboy in the now classic Brokeback Mountain.

Rather powerful energies seem to be at work right now, and center around Mercury (Thoth-Hermes) and Phoenix (specifically the city in Arizona). As pointed out by Goro Adachi yesterday, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) appears to have resurrected his bid for the republican presidential nomination after a huge victory in the "Sunshine" state of Florida as we approach the decisive "Super" Tuesday primaries on Feb. 5th (which will include McCain's home state of Arizona)...two days after the "Super Bowl" which is held this year in Phoenix, AZ.

This year's Super Bowl will match the nearly perfect New England Patriots against the New York Giants. For the purpose of this article the thing to consider is the historic significance of this game (unless McCain/AZ, Romney/NE, Clinton/NY excites you more). The Patriots are currently undefeated for the season, and if they were to win on Sunday they would achieve a feat that only one other team in the history of the sport has ever done. The 1972 Miami Dolphins being the only other team to do so...one of the members of that "Sunshine" state squad, running back Mercury Morris. Another possible sync standing in the way of the Patriots march towards perfection this weekend in the Valley of the Sun, the Giants start a legacy QB with the first name Eli, resonating with our newly unveiled "seer" Eli Stone. In the Talmud, Eli is of course considered a prophet. For more biblical implications associated with Eli click here.

On January 14th the Mercury MESSENGER (clever or just redundant?) took the first pictures ever of the "backside" of the planet...today January 31st, those picture were revealed. Referred to as the "Spider" an interesting formation of "spidery" striations and a large crater were revealed. I'm sorry but I can't help seeing this as an ANUS, rather than a "Spider". By all means however, judge for yourself.



From Mercury's backside to you...

Joker's Wild: Part I

"It's all a joke! Everything anybody ever valued or struggled for...it's all a monstrous, demented gag! So why can't you see the funny side? Why aren't you laughing?"

-The Joker
Batman: The Killing Joke


Perhaps not since 9/11 has a world event been more monumental among the esoteric research community than the recent passing of Heathcliffe Andrew Ledger on January 22nd, 2008...the attention has not been limited to those of us who work behind the scenes, this event seems to have affected people from all walks of life. In all honesty, this story has more dark resonance than ANY this researcher has ever attempted to write about in my short ten month presence online. The difficulty I have experienced trying to condense the related material has delayed any initial reactions I have had to events as they unfolded over the past week.


As quickly as Heath Ledger's charismatic talent had been snuffed out, writers Adam Star, Ellis Taylor, JB and others were on the case, offering heart felt apologies for the Holistic detective work they were about to conduct on the synchromystic footprint left behind by Mr. Ledger. The results have been, as usual, more than grimly intriguing... Although I realize that some of the research shall be repeated within the context of this series of articles, I urge readers to follow up on each of their investigations, as the material is substantial and noteworthy to say the least... My hat's off and awe to my fellow researchers for the following (which just also happens to be the title of an an excellent film by director Christopher Nolan which I selected to screen at my film festival back in 1998):


"This Joke is not Funny (Updated)" - Adam Star

"This Joke is not Funny Part II" - Adam Star

"The Joker is dead, long live the joker" - The Meta'-Logic Cafe'

"Heath Ledger" – Ellis Taylor

"Killing Joker" & "Killing Joker, part 2"Christopher Knowles


If you follow the Deep Impact workings of researcher Goro Adachi, no doubt you'll be aware that January 22nd, 2008 marked an important astronomical event as Comet Holmes 17P aligned with one of the best known stars in the heavens; Algol the Beta star of the constellation Perseus. It's Arabic name, "al Ghul" translates as "the demon". According to Adachi this event serves as a celestial "Omen"...and one need only look at the Batman franchise to observe the first synchromystic connection, as a similar alignment took place with the release of 2005's "Batman Begins". In it we see actress Katie Holmes in the role of Rachel Dawes, and Liam Neeson in the role of Ra al Ghul. The matrix-based conjunction of Holmes and Algol played out on the silver screen three years prior. The Ra al Ghul connection is one that has a long standing history in the Batman saga.


While monitoring more terrestrial matters as the world's financial markets began to sway like the houses of cards that they truly are, the dark reprocussions of the celestial "Omen" began to unfold in the shadows of the Hollywood dream machine. Several early indicators surfaced...the sentence of actress and former lover of Heath Ledger, Lindsey Lohan (a Disney product) to community service at an L.A. morgue- the sentence was handed down by one court Commissioner Gordon (Batman anyone?). On Jan. 15th actor Brad Renfro was found dead in his L.A. apartment (Renfro had been discovered at the age of 10 by a casting director for Joel Shumacher, the director of "Batman & Robin", "Batman Forever" and "The Number 23"). Just a few days later it was announced that the Jesuits had elected a new "Black Pope" (Heath Ledger's 2003 film "The Order" aka "The Sin Eater"deals with the subject of the Black Pope)...these related events kind of go on and on actually but I think you get the picture.


The 28 year old Oscar nominated (Brokeback Mountain) Aussie (Oz) seemingly had everything to live for; a skyrocketing career, a two year-old daughter; and so why is he dead? Some might say it was "written in the stars" or "in the cards"...his very name, Heathcliffe, taken from Emily Bronte's novel Wuthering Heights; is steeped with demonic connotations.

from wikipedia:
"The novel contains many Gothic and supernatural elements, although the true nature of the latter is always ambiguous. The mystery of Heathcliff's parentage is never solved. He is described by Hindley as an 'imp of Satan' in chapter four, and by the end of the novel Nelly Dean is entertaining notions that Heathcliff may be some hideous ghoul or vampire. The awesome but unseen presence of Satan is also alluded to at several points in the novel, and it is noted in chapter three that 'no clergyman will undertake the duties of pastor' at the local chapel, which has fallen into dereliction."

The novel was first published in 1847 under the pseudonym Ellis Bell, which just happens to be the last name of Heath's mother Sally (who is descended from the Scottish clan Campbell, as is yours truly). The viewing of Heath's body took place at Frank E. Campbell funeral home in Manhattan. In yet another Bronte related sync, Heath had previously owned a home in the seaside Australian town of Bronte before selling it and moving to New York after numerous run-ins with the paparazzi (one such event we shall return to later). When considering his name it is also interesting to note that the actors initials are H.A.L. which resonates with the Arthur C. Clarke/ Stanley Kubrick computer from 2001: A Space Odyssey.


Early media reports have given the impression of a drug related death, perhaps connected to depression and exhaustion, and this portrait might seemingly hang to his memory for ever more. Mr. Ledger has been painted as plagued by personal demons (not unlike his industry peer Brad Renfro who also died in his sleep less than a week prior), or mentally stuck in the role of a "psychopathic, mass-murdering, schizophrenic clown with zero empathy" squarely placing him in the earthly title of The Demon Star.


Personally, I'm sure Heath was exhausted, he had just returned (two days prior) from London where he was working on his next film, and yes, maybe he had reason to be depressed; his engagement to actress Michelle Williams had come unraveled late last year which had left him separated from his two year old daughter Matilda. A toxicology report is due to surface in about a week which will hopefully put an end to all the speculation, and judgments being placed upon his private life. The funny thing (if there is one) is that there is a chance that report comes back inconclusive too (as did the autopsy), and Heath's legacy becomes that of yet another James Dean or Kurt Cobain... for me Heath Ledger was marked, whether he knew it or not.

If looks could kill...The Joker forever

As for the why, how, or who, consider the now infamous statement by actor Jack Nicholson outside of a London restaurant less than 12 hours after news of the actor's death was made public. The following response was literally the first public statement issued from anyone about the tragic event...Mr. Nicholson's reaction was; "I warned him". Since the moment I saw the quote it has troubled me...and frankly, the more you look into it, the more troubling it becomes. What did the former Joker mean? Well, likely that depends on where you read the statement, and who wrote the supporting article. Everyone seemed to interperet Jack's comment in slightly different lights. Did he mean "he warned Heath about the dangers of drug use"? Or did he mean"he warned Heath about the toll playing The Joker would take on him"...in fact, neither of these "fixed" contexts apply at all. The statement was quite bluntly, "I warned him...". Which sounds much more like a threat brought to fruition. Perhaps even more so if you take into consideration statements made in a Nov. 7th, 2007 interview with MTV, in which Nicholson, when asked about Heath Ledger reprising "his" role of The Joker, ranted "I'm furious".


This is not the first time that "Jack" has been at the center of darkness. Back in 1977 film director Roman Polanski (forever linked to darkness via the Manson Family murder of his wife Sharon Tate, and his 1969 film Rosemary's Baby) was arrested for rape, sodomy, child molestation, and giving drugs to a minor after he invited a thirteen-year old to the Nicholson estate on Mulholland Drive (which would later become the name of master film director David Lynch's movie which starred former Ledger love interest, and Aussie Naomi Watts) for a "photo shoot" for French Vogue... The 'photo shoot' was, in actuality, a party.

It is now clearly apparent that there will not be a more anticipated motion picture release in recent memory than the upcoming Christopher Nolan summer blockbuster A Dark Knight (to be released June 2008). Heath Ledger will be reborn as the most notorious comic book villain of all time, The Joker.

Tooth is stranger than Fiction

Much has been made of Candy, K2, and Teeth in synchromystic circles the past few weeks, and until now I haven't had much to say on the topic. I have spent much more time of late looking at TIGERS, that was until the Sabretooth tiger was introduced by Jake Kotze at his ever-oozing The Blob site.



Joseph Losey's 1966 camp-fest of Modesty Blaise. This poster hangs framed in my living room!

My connection to this current 9/11 Mega Ritual MEME comes in the form of comic-strip crossover DIVA Modesty Blaise. Ms. Blaise has been a favorite of mine since the early 1990's in her comic, novels, and motion picture incarnations. The second of the Modesty Blaise novels, written in 1966 by creator Peter O'Donnell is entitled "Sabre-Tooth" but it is the content of the novel which provides us with some HIGHLY suspect "sync winks" as Jake would likely say.

from wikipedia:

Karz is a military leader (a Modern Genghis Khan) who has never known defeat. The huge Mongol is now assembling and training a large and well-equipped army of mercenaries in a hidden valley in the Hindu Kush Mountains bordering on Afghanistan (K2 Country anyone?). His objective: The invasion and occupation of oil-rich Kuwait! (And Peter O'Donnell wrote this book long before Saddam Hussein got the same idea.)

Karz does have one problem though; he lacks a couple of top lieutenants to command two sections of his growing army. His choice falls on Modesty Blaise and Willie Garvin, even though he knows they are not for hire.

Meanwhile, Sir Gerald Tarrant, who runs a secret service organization under the British government, has noticed that many mercenaries are being recruited by some unknown employer and disappearing. This worries Sir Gerald, and he asks Modesty and Willie to investigate. So while Modesty and Willie are looking for Karz (without knowing who they're looking for), Karz has Lucille (a child dear to Modesty and Willie) kidnapped, and commands Modesty and Willie to report for duty.

There is no possible way that Modesty and Willie can both save Lucille and sabotage the invasion of Kuwait. Modesty plays a long shot and is forced to fight the fearsome Twins, two men joined at the shoulders, a four-legged four-armed fighting animal impossible to defeat
(Twins, as in TWIN TOWERS, are YOU kidding me?). And even if she survives that fight, how will Modesty escape from the isolated valley so far from civilization?

As if the plot wasn't loaded enough...the Date for the planned attack of Kuwait in the novel? If you hadn't already had that feeling, it's September 11th.

Modesty Blaise trivia: The novel read in the bathroom by Vince Vega (V2) aka Scientologist John Travolta right before he is killed? Modesty Blaise...


Magical Mystery Turin

In a story straight out of the fictional town of Sunnydale, a prayer book and vial of Holy Water were stolen from the Chiesa della Gran Madre di Dio (or Church of The Great Mother of God) in Turin, Italy. Investigators seemed pretty convinced that the items were stolen for the purpose of "black magic", not the kind of conclusions that your typical police detective might come to in an ordinary city...but then Turn is apparently not an "ordinary" place. Perhaps best known for it's sleek Italian automobiles, and the Church of Saint John The Baptist, which houses the "Shroud of Turin"; Turin appears to be a HOT SPOT in an age old battle of "Good" vs. "Evil".


Grail Statue outside Chiesa della Gran Madre di Dio

Turin is said to serve as a point in two separate magick triangles, one "white" which also includes Lyon and Prague, the other evil; connecting Turin with London, and San Francisco.

Piazza Statuto thought to cover the gateway to Hell


Turin is also among cities thought to be the hiding place of the "Holy Grail" of legend.
