In the research work I have been doing for some time in religion I have
finally come to the conclusion that Gods first appeared, and in a plurality,
only when at the end in Scorpio in the fall, the year reaches its highest
complexity, as it evolves through the four fixed sign seasons in Astrology.
But in the beginning in the bare-bones infrastructure of Aquarius-One, in
the winter and air, it would be represented by logic and mathematics as the
fixed organizational aspect of reality. This would appear in natural law or
the physical constants as certain constraints on the universe and other
universes, if they exist. This would be followed by the Big Bang in concrete
Taurus in the spring, and earth, when budding matter than first appears. Now
these first two aspects are on the more logical, objective, left-brained
side of reality. Here natural law in Aquarius-One would accord with such
ideas like 2 plus 2 equals 4. Thus this order would be predetermined in all
universes if there is more than one, as formulated in Platonic order. But
when we enter into Taurus and matter this would deviate some in the way that
the physical constraints of the cosmological constants are imposed on this
universe or others too, it they exist, not being completely predetermined
but being influenced.
For example, this would occur in the application to our universe in the Big
Bang evolution when we enter into matter's attenuation; and also when we
enter into the matter realm from chaoplexity theory. Thus we would have
certain non-predetermined deviations in the Big Bang expansion, with the
material symmetry breaking from the realm of mathematics and logic.
Then we enter the right-brained side of the teeming, energetic, subjective
Leo sign in the summer when life and hence the vitalistic chi soul first
appears Here things would be even less predetermined; this also would be
related to dynamic energy as in electromagnetism.
Then we finally enter into the creation of the individual soul when it is in
its more perfected reincarnational state. Here there is also the creation of
various Gods through various spiritual evolutions. This last aspect would be
the most deep and complex, the least predetermined karmic-free will
evolutionary aspect in Scorpio in the receding Fall season in depth in water
in the years four-season cyclical quadrants. Thus it proceeds in a continuum
from the simplest, most predetermined, objective aspect to the most complex,
least predetermined, most subjective aspect of reality. Here finally, in the
evolution of the soul in Scorpio it would be in the last Fall season, when
miracles occur Gods finally arrive when life forms are developed to such a
high moral extent as consciousness arises with the development of language
in mankind.
As it has been written in the Bible: "In the beginning was the word." Now
man can enter the soul planes in an afterlife where reincarnation arises
between visits to these soul planes. Now some entities can stay there and
propitiate for mankind on earth, as the more morally perfected saints in the
Catholic church are reputed to do in response to prayer and offerings.
To do this, miracles arose to show man free will in order to choose to act
more morally, hence to believe in life after death with its incumbent
rewards and punishments.
To better describe this continuum in Greek nomenclature in a four-quadrant
seasonal fixed sign evolution one would say: LOGOS, or logic in Aquarius
air; COSMOS, or universe in Taurus earth; BIOS, or life in Leo fire; and
THEOS, or God in Scorpio water.
In the evolution of religion first, in the subset of Scorpio, with its
watery mystical moon as its symbol the religions of Animism and Shamanism
would arise when the soul of man was first prepared for an afterlife with
the development of language and hence consciousness. Here the blood type O
would exist representing the hunter and gatherer with his incumbent
existential angst. This would correspond to the first two years of life in
mankind and the delta brain wave stage. Here Gods arise that are forces of
nature or power animals to propitiate for man. The psychic manifestation
here would be such ghostly-appearing animals as even now may appear such as
Big Foot, The Loch Ness Monster, and the Chupacabra for example. As you will
notice, this evolution through the four seasonal quadrants proceeds to ever
more abstraction, logic, individuality, moral perfection, and a belief in a
universal afterlife of ultimate rewards and punishments by less and less
arbitrary spiritual forces.
Here in the second quadrant in the fiery sun symbol of Leo it would
interface to the first Scorpio quadrant in Totemism. This second summer
quadrant would typically contain the religions of Egypt and Greece, still
polytheistic and primitive but less so than the first ones. Here the blood
type would be type A which would represent the idealistic, more
constructive, symbol-using agriculturist. This would correspond to the
second year of life to the fifth year in mankind and the theta brain wave
stage. Here still many Gods arise, but now are more half animal and half man
like the sphinx in Egypt or Demeter in Greece. The psychic manifestation
would be a filmy dream imagery which would lead to prophecy and more
abstract and symbolic mathematical, archetypal representations, in such
things as religious architecture in art in Leo, such as the Egyptian
pyramids and Greek temples with their mystery schools.
Note that these first two types of Gods to arise are on the right-brained
side of the zodiacal mandala of the four season quadrants. Here the
interface would be Neoplatonism in the middle between Leo and Taurus, with
the left brained-side arising in Taurus. The next religions in Taurus would
be Judaism as a left-brained starting foundation for Christianity in the New
Testament completion of the Old Testament beginnings. This would arise in
the incumbent I AM of the Jewish God in the left-brained entrance into the
individuation of mankind in monotheism.
Here the blood type would be type B, representing the concrete, empirical,
mechanical Taurean man with the arising of the European clockwork
industrialized person as described so much by Weber in Sociology. This would
correspond to the fifth year of life on to adulthood in the alpha brain wave
stage. Here God arises as a full adult man in Christ. The psychic
manifestation would be filmy ghosts as in the concrete fixedness of Taurus
where the spirits are sometimes stuck on to the earth plane. Here the
interface between Taurus and Aquarius would be New Age Spiritualism.
Finally in the last Autumn stage of religious evolution in Aquarius in the
airy radiation of the stars as symbol the religions would be Hinduism as a
foundation, as with the Old Testament and Buddhism like a further
fulfillment of it. Here the blood type would type AB which would correspond
to rational, computer-like research and information technology in mankind.
The beta brain wave stage would now arise or even the gamma wave stage. This
would correspond to the age stages from adulthood on to midlife on finally
to old age. Here the psychic manifestation would be the transhuman Aquarian
rational, organizational computer insect, a robotic entity -- in other words
the space alien in the final stage of development. Now the most abstract
laws of Karma would finally arise in Buddhism and prevail. Here the psychic
manifestation would be the abstract Aquarian UFOs where the ghostly Gods
would sometimes radiate themselves into the material world of our earth
As you proceed from Aquarius to Taurus to Leo and finally to Scorpio you
will fast approach Aquarius again in this present Scorpio Age of religion
and parapsychology. But in some ways as you can't enter a new year again but
are limited to only a full cycle in religion. you could never fully enter
Aquarius-Two regarding religion and hence enter fully into the most logical
natural laws of the universe here. You would still be bound some by the
Gods, miracles and the need for prayer for intercession. But here religion
would be at its most logical, least arbitrary aspect of the four fixed sign
types and would only be fully available to the most morally inclined
individual. Thus man would now be entering the end of his reincarnations on
earth. Here one would receive rewards and punishments for all ones deeds in
equal measure. Hence there would be a complete evolution from animism where
the Gods first appear in the very beginning in nature to Buddhism where at
the very end the most abstract natural laws would arise without the Gods at
all. But we can never reach this absolute stage of Aquarius again, of
course, at the complete end of the year and at zero, because there must be a
reason for there to be something rather than nothing for reality to exist as
it does, so reality never ends.
In Judaism and hence onto its completion in Christianity its fatal flaw here
might be the arbitrary forgiveness of one's sins on accepting Christ, as
with Billy Graham's son Franklin, I believe, and President Bush as examples.
These people sowed their wild oats, so to speak, and then were supposedly
fully forgiven for all their past sins by accepting Christ as their Savior.
Maybe here, this youthful rebelliousness was related to an unhealthy
overattachment to their mothers in childhood with the need to rebel against
her in adulthood.
Thus maybe for moral principles and happiness we could even outlaw the use
of tobacco, alcohol, and gambling as I think we should try to maintain the
innocence of childhood into adulthood. For, except for sexuality, we
shouldn't adopt exclusively adult habits later on in life either. In
sexuality, which isn't immoral if we love our spouse and use a prudent
amount of birth control to not overpopulate our planet, we now also reach a
stage where as adults we can now work and support a family when we engage in
sex.
Instead of going to a bar to find a spouse maybe we should go to a worship
service where we tithe and attend at least once a week. Than we would be
guided by the spirit of God to find the correct wife. Thus we would have a
more blessed marriage and family life. If no one smoked or drank or
gambled, no one would be too unhappy and some people would be a lot happier,
not being subject to lung cancer, alcoholism, or bankruptcy.
But a happy marriage would be a blessing from God and useful for
reproduction and, of course also, a reward for entering into adulthood.
Here I would like to add that the empirical and rational evidence for a
spiritual afterlife on other planes of reality, hence the existence of Gods
in a plurality, and miracles, as also plural psychic manifestations, would
really exist. I have read much about, and personally experienced, in May of
1967, at Grand Rapids, Michigan a near-death experience.
Your life passes before you in review. Some people can even completely
describe things occurring on the earth plane when they are partially in the
spirit plane, even if their line of vision is obstructed in the physical
body and they are unconscious when they look down from above the ceiling in
describing these events. According to empirical science this would be
impossible.
I, like others, witnessed in a life review things that I did where I deeply
hurt other people. I was so sad about it. So surely then there must be an
afterlife and I think that we would be judged for these misdeeds when we
reincarnate. But here too, I didn't see Christ, Moses, or Mohammed so I
don't see where it would relate to any special religion as the only valid
one. But it was a miracle, like with ESP, reaching beyond the space/time
paradigm.
Thus the Gods would exist as miracles, but no exclusive God would be the
one. Instead, the more abstract concept of spiritual evolution in karma
with cause and effect would be the more objective operating principle here.
If there were just one God, which one would it be? Different peoples have
different Gods.
Of course, when we pray we have to direct our prayers to someone, and as
empirical, double-blind ESP studies have shown prayer in healing can be
quite effective. So I pray to the Lord Jesus Christ not because I am
exclusively Christian, but because the Christian religion in America has the
most influence here and hence would have the most power to answer prayers
for healing for others and for protection from evil. But if I lived in
India, for example, where the Indian religions would be predominate, I would
probably pray to an Indian God in power there instead. So I am not trying to
blaspheme the Bible but just trying to be rational and objective.
Although I state that Germany will be the leading country in Europe in the
future age of Aquarius, like Russia is now there, to be impartial I must
confess that I am not particularly fond of Germans in the U.S. I love the
German language structure, but I do want to be completely objective.
I do much prefer what I perceive as the more sedate and responsible Lutheran
Germans from the more ascetic North over the more changeable, right-wing
Catholic Germans from the southern part of Germany. Although I must admit
that I generally like Catholic areas in Europe.
This southern German area, by the way, was where Hitler came to live and
loved it so well. I think this area was related a lot to the Scorpio sign in
a negative way in the first half of the twentieth century, with the Fascist
participation in World War II. But to be completely objective I like the
overall German honesty, intelligence and even how they get to the point in
their straightforwardness. But I have to confess they can also be very
abrasive.
I also love the Scandinavian peoples like these people here in Minnesota,
but they are a more minor subset of the Germans. As for Asians, I quite
like them and especially their ideas. I do think they will also be the most
influential of the two peoples in the future, as the U.S. has been more so
than Russia now, being outside of Europe.
In the four-quadrant evolution of religion, each religion would have
something to offer in a holistic synthesis. Animism and Shamanism would
offer the love of the earth and its ecological preservation. The Egyptian
and Greek religions would offer the love of symbol and its beauty as
expressed, for example, mathematically in the ritualistic art of the
Egyptian pyramids and the Greek temples. The Jewish religion as later fully
embodied in the Christian would offer the love of your neighbor and
forgiveness of others' misdeeds to you.
Here, by the way, I see a benefit even if the laws of karma don't forgive;
we don't always know another's circumstance and hence should be more
hesitant in judging them but instead let them be judged by karma when they
die, as that will be a just judgment anyway. Finally, of course, Hinduism as
later fully embodied in Buddhism would offer the most logical idea -- that
you get in return what you put forth. This is the greatest truth I have
discovered in my long life.
I don't really want to disparage the non-democratic religions like
Christianity where you supposedly go to hell if you're not a Christian.
here, as under Communism where the state can take your life if you don't
follow their doctrine, they do give you a purpose in life beyond yourself
and they give you moral principles to follow rather than the sheer
materialism of Capitalism where the mere accumulation of wealth is the sole
goal.
But I do think the best approach to morality is the more democratic,
rational and empirical one. For we are evolving to ever higher levels of
morality, it seems, under democracy. Generally in today's world we don't
have demeaning slavery; women have equal rights with men, being able to
vote, too; and most industrialized countries don't have barbaric capital
punishment. It seems man is gradually approaching his highest moral
perfection to where he reaches a point in time when he won't have to
reincarnate.
At the symbolic end of the year we can reach the infinite state of
enlightenment, when mankind won't have to reincarnate on earth but will
reach the highest plane of heaven. From there one can view all of reality
as a whole, viewing it as a God would. But one will never leave this
infinite dimension and have one's soul extinguished. I believe that it is
not possible to go on to zero at the symbolic beginning of the year again,
leaving reality completely behind. As there never was a beginning before
zero in the very first part of the year, neither is there ever an end after
infinity at the very end of the year. Reality must exist for a reason in
its evolutions to ever higher forms.
As you can see, I really think this Scorpio, most complex, least
predetermined spirit plane really exists, where such things as Big Foot,
dream symbol ritualistic archetypes, ghosts, and space aliens are a reality.
These would be manifestations from the spirit plane into our material realm.
Hence UFOs, for example, can be materially picked up on radar screens and
photographed but can also suddenly make a 90 degree turn or disappear back
into the more abstract infinite auric spiritual plane again from whence they
came, beyond the speed of light, outside the space/time paradigm. This
would ordinarily be a miracle.
One might also posit a continuum here through the four seasons and the four
fixed signs. This framework proceeds from the most concrete Taurus sign in
the Big Bang in the densest center of a sphere, to Leo and life, where
electromagnetism and lower chi vitalistic forces preside, further out to the
less dense more outer edge where the outer aura and more advanced vitalistic
chi presides. Here the fully developed soul first appears, which finally
culminates in the most abstract reality at the least dense very most outer
peripheral edge of the sphere in Aquarius. Here natural law or the laws of
numbers and logic would preside, where the mathematical constructs which
comprise reality and the universe exist.
To view physical science in still another way: To the left of the densest
material sphere in Taurus that is in three dimensions and has one half
angular spin, you will find the least dense, most inner sphere in the
simplest Aquarius sign. This is beyond the Big Bang, and is in zero
dimensions with zero angular spin. This would represent the fixed laws of
the universe in logic and mathematics; these would be completely rigid and
unchangeable, being outside of space/time.
On its opposite end: To the right of the speed of light in Leo that is in
four dimensions and has one angular spin, you will find the most energetic
and outer sphere in the most complex Scorpio sign. It has infinite
dimensions and angular spin. This would correspond to instantaneous
communication, as represented by the perfected human soul, Gods, and
miracles in ESP and religion. This would also be outside of space/time
I intend to go into this subject of a continuum of forces in more detail
next fall in a separate paper on "Astrology and Fields". In order to permit
a better understanding of this present paper, I give just a brief outline of
the four forces.
In closing, I would like to correct some mistaken thinking on my part. I
had thought that in the soon-coming Age of Aquarius as the main sun sign the
subset to it would be Capricorn as a moon sign. But I now see where this is
actually a subset to the present Scorpio sun sign era. I also think that
maybe this subset of Capricorn first begin when President Kennedy was killed
in 1963. At that time we started to elect all our presidents from the
southern part of the U.S.. It especially came into full existence in the
early 1970's, when the petroleum shortage first appeared and we first
started to see how limited were our global resources. The realization of
the need to live more frugally fits the watchword for Capricorn: "I
Utilize".
The Aquarius subset moon sign to the Scorpio main sun sign was from
approximately 1875 to 1970, coinciding with World Wars I and II. When these
two signs are combined they can lead to much violence, as they did in the
1960's -- an Aquarius decade with much upheaval. The present era would
relate to the 1930's, a Capricorn decade with the depression and its
financial hardships instead.
Thus the coming New Age will be Aquarius, of course, but the subset will be
Sagittarius instead of Capricorn. Sagittarius, with its holistic abundance,
would really relate more to a Theory of Everything than just about any other
sign. This would be a very fortunate time, much unlike the present time,
which would occur under about the most misfortunate combination of signs
that can exist. Now we have the financial hardships of Capricorn and the
existential angst of Scorpio. The Sagittarius subset moon sign to Aquarius
sun would be like its counterpart a lot, the Gemini one to the main sun sign
of Taurus. This is typified by the Renaissance with the appearance of the
multifaceted Leonardo Da Vinci, who excelled not just in art but also in
science. This was a new period, coming out of the dark ages of the Cancer
subset to Aquarius.
Finally, I would also like to talk about chronology. As you might have
noticed, the first three religious movements follow in chronological order.
You may wonder why Hinduism and Buddhism come last when they should
chronologically come before Judaism and Christianity. I believe even with
the ascendancy of
Asia in this coming Age of Aquarius, the West and especially Europe, with
its discovery of the scientific method in the time of Galileo, would still
be the standard for the world throughout modern times to a certain extent.
Note when the ideas of Eastern Religion first came to the West to a large
extent. I would say this first started about in the 1700's; the turning
point for its complete acceptance could have been in 1893 at The World
Parliament of Religions in Chicago, USA. According to my calculations, this
would be a Scorpio era and a Scorpio geographical area, in tune with this
present Scorpio era of Religion and Parapsychology.
Here I think, too, in this soon-coming New Aquarian Age a synthesis of East
and West would arise in accordance with A Theory of Everything. Hence in
religion we will combine the linear, empirical analysis of Western science
and philosophy with the holistic intuitive synthesis of Eastern religion and
philosophy. Thus we might be able to place Karma on a more logical basis in
relation to a more ascetic and puritanical Western mode of thought. But,
here too, we would go back to the ancient roots of the East, where a deeper
intuitive knowledge of Parapsychology and Religion exists, for example, by
the Yogis who passed it on from generation to generation.
