The Towers of the West are history. In a superb paradox, Jerry Falwell and Pat Robertson were actually correct, for perhaps the only time in their sorry lives. The fall of the Towers WAS an externalization of our inner State. Despite its horror, it was a numinous event intended to awaken and instruct. It put the fear of Real Power back into the national soul.

Greater powers than fundamentalist fanatics oversaw that tumble, and wept.

Even the most desperate of men, hashishins acting in concert, have very limited powers. The fall of the Towers was a freeze-frame of imploding America, and our guardians reluctantly allowed it.

The People of the nation have been fractured for four decades. The Republic is in tatters, it�s citizens under increasing oppression, its ideals and ethics in ruins.

The planet calls out for strong, just leadership to bring it through the night, and is answered by the lies of old pharaoh, the Spin of Empire, and by the priestesses of the Church of Woman, ever-thirsty and grasping.

On the fringes of the aboriginal village or the modern city, homeless princes pace the ramparts, roaming the edges of society, half criminals, half shepherds. To them the eastering Sun looks.

Here Comes the Son

�but you�ll never get away,
no you�ll never get away
from the burning heartache,
I walked to Apollo-by-the-Bay
Everywhere I go
Eli�s coming!

-- "Eli's Coming" Three Dog Night

Whenever humanity has faced such crises in the past, redemptive Sons -- solar emanations, heroes -- have arrived to bootstrap consciousness, to make bridges of their spirits and bodies.

They are intensely documented in both the oral and written records, amongst both aboriginal and modern cultures. Typically they are of �virgin birth,� a layered term. For our purposes, it means a redemptive masculine entity born outside of earthly generation, without the seed of a human father. Such a being is thus immune to fate � to original sin, to the �archons� of both DNA and planetary influence, to microcosmic and macrocosmic destiny.

That matter cannot be undertaken here. For further information, readers might explore the connection between �virgin� in the ancient sense, and that entity called the �Queen of Heaven.�

Most solar heroes acted solely as spiritual advisors. On those rare occasions when they intervened in politics, they did so outside secular bounds, limiting themselves to internecine strife with the spiritual, archonic rulers over the ancient world.

One such instance is recounted in Daniel 10, when Daniel is confronted by the solar �chrysolite� man, �his face like lightning, his eyes like flaming torches � his voice like the sound of a multitude.� (Daniel 10:6, NIV) Daniel is told that the �chrysolite man� and an archangel were tardy meeting him because �the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days.� (10:13)

This is a reference to �war in heaven.� Note that the strife was amongst the angels or archons, and not directly with Cyrus, secular King of Persia. Instead, the solar emanations contended against Persia�s �prince� � that is, with the demiurgic archon, with the living and breathing zeitgeist, of a corrupted nation. Today, we might call such confrontation a propaganda war.

Archonic powers usually incarnate. History is their detritus. Gilgamesh of Uruk, Alexander the Great, and Adolph Hitler are examples, but there are many more, mostly anonymous.

Solar heroes avoided earthly power, except in the earliest stages of consciousness, masculinity, and �patriarchal� organization (see, e.g., the Sumerian �King-Lists�).

Ancient solar entities, like Christ -- or Plato -- were absorbed in assisting the separation of the opposites, with spiritual, solar leadership necessarily distanced from material, political power. �Patriarchal� nation-states, both ancient and modern, are socio-political extensions of matriarchy. Because matriarchy is conserved in patriarchy, sharing its love for will-to-power and mass scapegoating, shamanic emanations rarely touched secular thrones.
