“The Mind is its own place, and in itself
Can make a Heaven of Hell and a Hell of Heaven”
John Milton Paradise Lost – Book 1
There are simultaneous galactic games of chess in progress between black and white. These games are happening simultaneously on multiple levels with many participants. A move on one board affects another game in unseen ways.
On 1st April 2026 NASA launched a rocket named Orion as part of the Artemis II Mission to send humans to the moon and back. This is happening at the same time as the Zionist government of Israel and the United States government are conducting an undeclared illegal war against Iran, Russia is continuing to pummel Ukraine and China has it’s eyes on Taiwan.
Which of these has the world’s attention? It’s probably all of these but the Artemis II misdirection has certainly captured the attention of many. Everyone likes space rockets.
In a chess game on another level, rockets have another significance. They can be seen as a torch, a cylinder which produces light and flame. This has always fascinated humans for it is the oldest of all technologies; fire. The Statue of Liberty on Liberty Island, New York is of course holding a torch as a symbolic beacon. It was intended to guide travellers to a place where individual freewill flourishes. A torch is also symbol of light and enlightenment as in the ancient Olympic Games.
A rocket belches out fire from below, not above like a torch. The rockets of space exploration and war are inverted torches of freedom and as a rule ‘turning upside down’ represents Satanic forces at work.
The Pentagon in Washington is perhaps one of the most infamous sources of power, along with the secret societies.
But some occultists work in plain sight and leave clues. The Orion rocket is 322 feet tall, which is the number of the Yale secret society, the Skull and Crossed Bones. This is not a club. It has members in powerful places including past Presidents Howard Taft and the Bushes, Senior, and Junior. ‘Bonesmen’ are sworn to secrecy. Perhaps the crossed bones references the symbol ‘X’ of Elon Musk’s social media platform and SpaceX programme?
Esoteric ‘programmes’ are time critical, as the spell must be performed on the right day on the annual calendar and hour of the day. The launch of the Orion rocket in the Artemis11 programme was originally 26th March 2026. This is a significant date in the Wiccan calendar and is a few days after OSTARA or the spring equinox. Note the word o-STAR-a or Easter. It is significant because it is the midpoint between Inbolc and Beltane or Candlemas and Mayday. It marks when there are equal amounts of light and darkness in the day and when the solar activity begins to ascend until the summer solstice.
At the time of Ostara we feel the powerful energy of nature rising and nature starting a new solar year…as 1st April was once, before being moved by Pope Gregory XIII to the first of January. April is a time of balance, two sides of a central point as in the three stars of ‘Orion’s belt’. To return to Earth on 11th April is to pass between two pillars or a gate II. As the spacecraft is called Orion could this be intended to represent Orion’s Gate, an ancient cosmic gateway through which souls journeyed to attain higher wisdom?
The launch was postponed for we are told, technical reasons until 1st April at 6.35pm Eastern Time or 11.35pm BST. This coincides precisely with the Jewish Passover which happened this year between the evening of 1st April and 9th April. The story of Passover in Exodus describes how God ordered Moses to tell the Israelites to slaughter a lamb and mark their doorframes with it’s blood and then eat unleavened bread for seven days. This informed the ‘destroying angel’ to pass over that particular household. Is humanity being warned of another plague or destruction?
In 1972, Apollo 17 landed humans on the surface of the moon for the first time. The logo for the Apollo programme curiously features the constellation Orion. The S shape curve creates an uncanny resemblance to the Yin / Yang symbol of the east, which symbolises the balance of nature and a non-binary philosophy where male and female are complimentary, not opposite.
The gods Orion and Artemis were male and female archetypal hunters. If you wonder why the Apollo lunar programme was named after a sun god, perhaps it is because Artemis has a twin brother named after ‘the light of the world’… Apollo. His myth narrates that he challenged Artemis to shoot an arrow at an object in the sea which unbeknown to her, was Orion’s head. In his memory she fixed Orion in the stars as the constellation we see today.
We might question the use of ancient Greek and Roman names by a scientific establishment such as NASA. The West embraces scientific materialism as a philosophy of life. Excursions away from material centred ideas are unexpected. A large number of the constellations were named as mythical gods and creatures by the Greek astronomer Ptolemy. In the 18th and 19th centuries some were named after scientific instruments. There is evidence that this practice started in the Middle Ages with the astrolabe. Does this represent a conflict between the opposing world views of archetypal symbols and materialism?
Clearly the ancient understanding of astronomy and magic has been overshadowed but occultists and Freemasons have retained this ancient knowledge of symbols even as scientific materialism took over.
At the foundation of NASA there are two influential figures who understood and used the power of symbols and ritual.
The first was Jack Parsons who in the 1930’s set up the Jet Propulsion Laboratory and developed the rocket technology in use even today. He achieved this with no formal education.
Parsons had a deep interest in the Occult and Satanism and was a one-time follower of the famous British Occultist ‘The Beast 666’, also known as Alastair Crowley. Parsons was a friend of the founder of the church of Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard as they shared an interest in the occult. Note the similarity between the above NASA Apollo (above) and Artemis (below) logos and the European Scientology logo; the S shape over or through pyramids in a universal circle. The circle of stars on a blue background is a clear reference to Europa.
There is a resemblance between the words Satan and Saturn suggesting a poetic connection. Satan is the force that holds humans in the material world until Saturn as ‘Old Father Time’ sweeps his scythe. He is the Titan Chronos or ‘time’. Saturn is alchemically the metal lead and we feel this sometimes as gravity. In space, crews temporarily escape Earth’s the tyranny the ‘lead boots’ feel of a material human body. As astronauts theoretically reach almost the speed of light time, slows down and in theory stops.
The second important figure in NASA’s creation was the Nazi rocket scientist Werner von Braun. He designed the rocket used in the Apollo programme named appropriately the Saturn V rocket. When the second world war ended in 1945 he went to the USA with other prominent German scientists in a programme named Operation Paperclip. The Nazi regime had been sending untargeted V2 rockets to London and other cities. There is evidence that the Germans also had advanced technology including anti-gravity spacecraft. This was eagerly seized by the Allied countries after the fall of the Reich and led to the ‘space race’ in the following years, including the ‘Star Wars’ programme under the Ronald Regan administration and the Strategic Arms Agreements.
In another game of chess, the ‘torch bearer’ or Lucifer, is an angel who was cast out of heaven by the Almighty for daring to challenge His absolute power. The Bible conflates Lucifer with Satan but the two are not the same. There are twin stories of a battle between a sun god and a serpent monster, Satan and Lucifer. The former is a Saturn external world snake and the latter an internal world, Venus snake. The Venus snake has a tricky quality represented on the chess board by the knight’s move. It is the unreal and unexpected; the trigger of unintended consequences.
We see numerous connections with Earth’s beautiful sister planet, Venus. The symbol V (for Venus) keeps appearing on the mission logos and the Saturn V rocket. Artemis in all her glory appears to humans as the morning or evening star Venus at different times in the year. The V shape may also be the set square of the Freemasons or when inverted, a pair of compasses.
The United States of America was founded by Freemasons such as George Washington in 1876 and it’s 250th anniversary is in 2026. The freemason’s understood symbolism and it’s power in ritual to express and manage the forces of light and darkness
As a general point, there appears to me a present-day schism between the material and the non-material worlds, of matter and energy. Humanity is being torn apart by the (Satanic) process of craving comfortable, material lifestyles that Earth can no longer sustain. In New Age philosophy and in the Dolores Canon canon, sensitive souls are presently leaving the material planet for a ‘new Earth’, or in the metaphor of this essay, ‘chess in another dimension’.
We cannot deny that strange coincidences can be found in NASA’s evolving story that link it to the hidden and unexplained. One of NASA’s best known astronauts in Apollo 11 was Buzz Aldrin. He happened to be a Scottish Rite 33rd degree Freemason. He was the second man on the moon after Neil Armstrong, and he followed that ‘giant leap for mankind’ onto the silver surface of the moon where he conducted a masonic ritual and founded a Lunar Lodge.
Today’s high priests of technology and private and commercial space programmes are Elon Musk with Starship designed by SpaceX and Jeff Bezos with Blue Origin.
Both are not apparently concerned with sustaining a reasonable standard of living for bodies and souls currently on planet earth. When Musk oversaw the U.S. Department for Government Efficiency, one of his costs cutting measures was to reduce funding of USAid by 90%.
There has appeared in human society around the world a group who are referred to as the ‘one per cent’. They are extraordinarily wealthy and appear to have little compassion for others less fortunate, mirroring the Court of King Louis XIV, self-styled sun King who built an opulent palace in Versailles whilst his subjects starved. This apparent disdain for life and the common good has been a hall mark of the line of the Frankish Merovingian royal bloodline. It is present in the anti-human rights and freedom policies of a growing number of right wing politicians around the world today.
The emergence of the power of rockets as agents of exploration and destruction, in my view represents the last gasp of male energy that has unbalanced the progress of humanity for thousands of years. What we see in the growing Aquarian Age is a blooming presence of a feminine energy; softer and more compassionate.
Apollo’s sister Artemis, embodies this femininity. It is a difficult balance needed between red and blue which, in my view, has been historically suppressed by male leaders. The death of the late Princess Diana (the roman name for Artemis) was a sad loss for humanity. ‘Death without mercy’ is typical of the ancient Merovingian bloodline energy. Under the Pont d’Alma where Diana died is a replica of the flaming torch from the Statue of Liberty. One of Diana’s aims in this world, was to remove the deadly remnants of war – land mines – a perfect example of light extinguishing darkness.
The five parts of the symbol of the Artemis II mission, feature an inverted capital A as in to the Apollo mission logo. Interestingly the central bar of the letter A has been removed so what is shown is an inverted V. The last of five Artemis missions to the moon will be Artemis V. As well as a ‘loving’ Venus reference, in numerology the number 5 represents balance and harmony so an inverted V suggests a disharmony. In the Artemis logo left, the V stands over the north pole of an unsmiling blue arc represents the planet Earth. Through the pyramid curves a red line suggesting that if this unhappy Earth is feminine, the S shaped curve is masculine but they no longer balance as in the Apollo logo above. The red line connects with a white sphere representing the moon which is half eclipsed by the top of the pyramid. If you look carefully, you will see a white line eclipsing the left side of the letter R. Red, white and blue? Liberty, Equality, Fraternity? Who knows. Perhaps May Day 2026 is a time for revolution.
Artemis I was launched without a crew, understandably for safety reasons but possibly also to prove that for scientific study, a crew is not needed. Just sending one jar of Nutella one astronauts luxury, is costing tens of thousands of dollars. There are many other obvious advantages to unmanned scientific missions. Scientists in the 1970’s wanted the Apollo missions to be unmanned but politics of the day demanded maned missions. The decision to send a three man and one-woman crew in Artemis II suggests a political motive again. Two men and two women astronauts would have been a better balance!
This theme of the two extremes represented by male and female, light and darkness, extends over the chequer board of space time. Personally, I hope mankind never reaches the exhausted masculine planet of war Mars, and instead learns from the feminine lunar missions that planets eventually degrade into Wastelands if not sustained by love. The reflections of astronauts from this and previous missions describe how inspirational the view of Earth is from far away.
It’s like going on holiday and longing for home.
This blue planet is a paradise not to lose,
but one to find.
