Stargates,              Ancient Rituals, And Those Invited Through The Portal (Pt. 9)

Metaphysical nonsense, or high-tech mechanisms built by "the gods"?

By Thomas Horn

"...unto them were committed the oracles of God" (Rom. 3:1-2).

When the apostle Paul wrote to the church at Rome              concerning the oracles (logion, "divine utterances") which              God gave to the Hebrews, he was referring to the revelations of the              Old Testament Law and Prophets.

It can also refer to devices              used in the production of divine utterances.

In the Bible, the word "oracle" means supernatural utterance.

Thus the Bible is              an oracle, as was the Urim and Thummim (sacred devices) of the Old              Testament.

When men or women speak as true prophets of God, they              likewise are considered oracles "of God" (1 Pet. 4:11).

Synchronous to Paul's time, pagans              held similar beliefs concerning their sacred              texts and devices. Ancient Oracles of Egypt, Greece, and Rome were              the most famous in antiquity and provided a portal to the invisible              world of gods through Oracles at Delphos, Delos, Ammon, Dodona, The              Roman Augurs, The Sibylline Books and others.

Oracles of one form or another have existed              throughout time and around the world for one simple reason: they              ostensibly prove the existence of other-dimensional intelligence and              provide methods for conversing with and/or inviting through mystical              doorways the voices, messages and presence of other-dimensional              beings.

Yet in the quest for              other-dimensional contact, non-Judeo/Christians reach beyond the              "confines" of the Bible into the veiled world of esoteric rituals,              utterances, visualization, channeling and other methodology.

I boldly              proclaimed that Christianity had swept the globe, and that, as far              as I knew, not a living person remained on earth that bowed in              reverence to Apollo or consulted at his sacred shrines.

On this subject, I once gave a              lecture about oracles and the "death of the Olympian gods."

The speech              was received with rousing applause by the audience, and I sold some              tapes. The only problem was, I was wrong.

Apollo’s Oracle at Delphi,              the most famous oracle of antiquity, is in ruins. But the worship of              the Olympian god, and the order of his pythian priestesses are              actively involved in modern paganism.

There is some evidence that generational witches may have continued              the worship of Apollo and the secrets of pythian divination for              centuries.

The fact is, it’s unclear if              the worship of Apollo or the consulting of his oracles ever ceased.

Whether or not that’s true, the admirers of Apollo number              in the tens of thousands today. This is primarily because Apollo is              an oracle god, and his seekers gain "divine audience."

Unlike other              underworld spirits, Apollo audibly communicates (at times with              amazing accuracy in antiquity) through the vocal chords of the              pythoness to his followers. This characteristic originally caused,              and apparently continues to cause, tremendous cult popularity for              Apollo.

The Greek historian, Herodotus (considered the father of history), recorded an interesting Apollonian event. Croesus, the king of Lydia, expressed doubt regarding the accuracy of Apollo’s Oracle at Delphi. To test the oracle, Croesus sent messengers to inquire of the pythian prophetess as to what he, the king, was doing on a certain day. The priestess surprised the king’s messengers by visualizing the question, and formulating the answer, before they arrived. A portion of the historian’s account says:

...the moment that the Lydians (the messengers of Croesus) entered the sanctuary, and before they put their questions, the Pythoness thus answered them in hexameter verse:...Lo! on my sense there striketh the smell of a shell covered tortoise, Boiling now on a fire, with the flesh of a lamb, in a cauldron. Brass is the vessel below, and brass the cover above it." These words the Lydians wrote down at the mouth of the Pythoness as she prophesied, and then set off on their return to Sardis....[when] Croesus undid the rolls....[he] instantly made an act of adoration...declaring that the Delphic was the only really oracular shrine....For on the departure of his messengers he had set himself to think what was most impossible for any one to conceive of his doing, and then, waiting till the day agreed on came, he acted as he had determined. He took a tortoise and a lamb, and cutting them in pieces with his own hands, boiled them together in a brazen cauldron, covered over with a lid which was also of brass (Herodotus, book 1: 47).

On the Internet there are numerous Web sites today dedicated to              the modern worship of Apollo, where the methods and sacred locations              of current pythian oracular activity are taught.

The deity Apollo established substantial              reverence through such interaction and apparently continues to do              so.

Besides pythian, ancient oracles revived by              participants of various movements currently include interpreting the              flame of candles, the organs of animals, the behavior of water, and              the whisping of wind through the leaves of trees.

Tree oracles, such as the necromantic oak tree                of Zeus at Dodona, were among the most popular oracles of the                ancient world. This was due in part to the belief that the root of                the tree extended into the lower world and thus the tree was                connected to the underworld dead. Some claim 2 Samuel 5:24 is a                scriptural account of King David consulting with tree oracles, and                they point out that Jehovah instructed David to "smite the host of                the Philistines" after he heard "the sound of a going in the tops                of the mulberry trees."

Oracles As Dimensional Gateways

Yet another and more important reason why                animate objects such as trees, animals and similar organic                structures are important aspects of oracle-portals is that "vital                energy" associated with three-dimensional life forms may be                required as construct material for achieving incarnation by                other-dimensional beings.

 If the "Creator" alone possesses the                power to speak [Hayah                "let there be"] raw atomic or nuclear energy into molecular                form, created living energy after the fact               may                be manipulated by "gods" in                order to construct three-dimensional expressions.

Dr. I.D.E.                Thomas says, "This would explain why animals have been killed,                mutilated and stolen by UFOs."

John Keel offers similar discourse in The Invisible College:

In order to materialize and take definite form, these entities seem to require a source of energy; a fire or a living thing--plant, a tree, a human medium (or contactee). Our sciences have not reached a point where they can offer us any kind of working hypothesis for this process. But we can speculate that these beings need living energy which they can reconstruct into physical form. Perhaps that is why dogs and animals tend to vanish in flap areas. Perhaps the living cells of those animals are somehow used by the ultraterrestrials to create forms which we can see and sense with our limited [three-dimensional] perceptions.

Do animal mutilations occur in areas where UFOs have been spotted because "the gods" or ET need "vital energy" derived from living tissue to transverse portals with three-dimensional membranes?

One of the early influences in my life, Dr. Kurt                Koch, wrote in his book Christian Counseling and Occultism                that teleplastic morphogenesis occurs in six degrees:

The first stage is the emission and separation                  of veil-like, gauze-like, slimy substances of rubbery elasticity                  from the body cavities of the medium...

The second stage is the                  formation of body parts such as outline, arms, legs, head,                  etc....

The third stage is the solidification into complete                  shadowy forms, which appear as phantoms near the medium...

In                  these three stages we have purely visual materialization                  phenomena. In the next three stages we move on to active and                  passive manifestations of energy by the phenomenon.

The fourth stage shows a combination of                  materialization phenomena with telekineses. The medium is in a                  position to display energy at a distance by means of an                  unknown remote power [emphasis added]...

The fifth stage of                  the materialization is the penetration of matter...

The sixth                  stage of materialization... is... metamorphosis into animal                  shapes.

As far back as 1629, in the Tractatus                Theologicus, Adam Tanner interpreted the same activity as the                morphogenesis of demons:

They often form for themselves bodies from                  impure air or vapors and exaltations or clouds mixed with air.                  To the air water is added, earth, mud, sulphur, resin, wood.                  Sometimes too there are added bones from the corpses of animals                  or condemned men, at times too from the semen of beasts and men                  and such like manner.

"Angelic Beings" Using Created Matter To Embody Themselves?

As if on                  queue, angels perceived as both fallen and unfallen have become                  one of the most popular oracular-entities of modern                  spiritualists. Dozens of New Age books over the last decade                  describe methods of communicating with and/or manifesting                  spirits through the "assistance" of angels. Some such titles are                  self explanatory. Ask Your Angels: A Practical Guide to                  Working with the Messengers of Heaven to Empower and Enrich Your                  Life, and, The Angels Within Us: A Spiritual Guide to the                  Twenty-two Angels that Govern Our Lives.

In one publication we discover the interesting                identity of one of these beings as the author describes his                encounter with his angel-oracle:

The Swirling fog began to dissipate, and I                  could see the flicker of a light ahead—a darting, pulsating glow                  resembling a fire-fly. I paused for a moment to observe, and the                  tiny flare expanded in size and appeared as a small full moon                  touching the earth. As I moved closer to the radiance, it                  suddenly changed into a vertical beam, a pillar of transparent                  light.

"Are you the angel I am seeking?" I asked.

The soft yet powerful feminine voice replied, "I am the Angel of Creative Wisdom."

"Do you have a name?"

"Some have called me Isis," she said, and with those words the pillar of light slowly materialized to reveal the face and form of a beautiful woman wearing a flowing white robe trimmed in gold [emphasis added].

It appears that at least some of the beings that                came through ancient stargates and dimensional portals continue to                do so. In this case, "Isis" is identified as a New Age "angel".

While such angel-oracles are undoubtedly popular                among New Age devotees, the most curious form of oracular activity                recently reinvigorated is the psychomanteum, a simple yet                eerie ancient method for opening dimensional portals.

A chair, placed in front of a large mirror in a                dark room, serves as the oracle. Once positioned on the chair, the                occupant stares into the mirror and waits for contact with ET or                the ghosts of the dearly departed.

In ancient times, the                psychomanteum’s mirror-system for communicating with "spirits" was                employed by primitive Greeks in gloomy underground caverns called                "halls of visions".

Standing in front of a shining metal surface                or caldron, grieving ancients saw and spoke with familiar                apparitions.

The Sumerians, Egyptians, and Romans employed similar                oracles of polished crystal, brass mirrors, and pools of water.

Some believe the Apostle Paul was referring to a mirror-oracle                when he said, "For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then                face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as                also I am known" (1 Cor. 13:12).

Psychomanteums today are used to facilitate                contact with ETs, deities, and deceased relatives or family                members. Various versions of psychomanteums are even encouraged by                some psychiatrists as a method for dealing with grief.

Sometimes under special                  (nefarious?) conditions, the mirror-contact phenomenon                  spontaneously occurs.

As a teenager, my wife was involved in a                  horrific accident that killed her dad and sister. Following the                  accident, her 11-year-old sister "materialized" in the bedroom                  mirror on two occassions. Since the house she lived in was                  formerly occupied by an unusual band of gypsies, my wife                  believed this fact contributed to the spontaneous psychomanteum                  activity.

In his book, Reunions, Raymond Moody                  promotes the use of psychomanteums as oracles. He documented the                  experiences of more than three hundred users of the device, and                  points out that 50% claimed to have been contacted by entities                  or deceased relatives and friends during the first try.

People interviewed by Mr. Moody included                  physicians, teachers, housewives, business owners, and law                  enforcement officials.

One such witness, an accountant that                  grieved over his departed mother a year after her death,                  testified of his experience with the psychomanteum:

There is no doubt that the person I saw in the mirror was my mother! I don’t know where she came from but I am convinced that what I saw was the real person. She was looking out at me from the mirror....I could tell she was in her late 70s, about the same age as....when she died. However, she looked happier and healthier than she had at the end of her life. Her lips didn’t move, but she spoke to me and I clearly heard what she had to say. She said, "I’m fine," and smiled....I stayed as relaxed as I could and just looked at her....Then I decided to talk to her. I said, "It’s good to see you again."

"It’s good to see you too," she replied. That was it. She simply disappeared.

A physician was unexpectedly contacted by a                nephew while seated in a psychomanteum:

I suddenly had a very strong sense of the                  presence of my nephew, who had committed suicide....I heard his                  voice very clearly. He greeted me and brought me a very simple                  message. He said, "Let my mother know that I am fine and that I                  love her very much." This experience was profound. I know he was                  there with me.

Although the Bible warns of communicating with                familiar spirits, consulting mediums, or otherwise offering                invitations to other-dimensional entities, the revival of ancient                oracles and the experiences drawn from them are especially                seductive curiosities to followers of modern ufology and                spiritualism.

Jacques Vallee offers tantalizing clues to the                identity of those behind the veil:

"...should we hypothesize that an advanced                  race somewhere in the universe in some time in the future has                  been showing us three-dimensional space operas for the last 2000                  years, in an attempt to guide our civilization? If so, do they                  deserve congratulations?... Are we dealing instead with a                  parallel universe, another dimension, where there are human                  races living, and where we may go at our expense, never to                  return to the present? Are these races only semi-human, so that                  in order to maintain contact with us, they need cross-breeding                  with men and woman of our planet? Is this the origin of the many                  tales and legends where genetics play a great role:... the fairy                  tales involving human midwives and changelings, the sexual                  overtones of the flying saucer reports, the Biblical stories of                  intermarriage between the Lord's angels and terrestrial women,                  whose offspring were giants? From that mysterious universe are                  higher beings projecting objects that can materialize and                  dematerialize at will?

Materializing and dematerializing of                super-intelligent beings whether they be angels or ETs is not                difficult to accept.

The Bible, as well as other ancient records,                speak openly of Satan appearing as an angel of light, and of good                angels being hosted as "angels unaware".

We also are willing to                believe that malevolent beings could produce UFOs for their                own nefarious reasons.

The theology of transmogrification, whereby                spirits take form, indicates ability by demons to manipulate                energy and matter.

The German word "poltergeist" was given to                unexplained spirit noises and activity. Yet how could spirits                cause audible vibrations unless they have ability to make physical                contact with tangible materials?

This being theologically                acceptable, maybe Vallee is right about historical "demons"                producing phenomena known as Unidentified Flying Objects--the                manifested manipulating of vital energy.

Whatever the case, In the next part of this                series we will look at the near future and of beings prophesied to                return through stargates at the end of time. How this is, and will                be, interpreted by religious and secular ufologists is of utmost                importance.

For more on those who came through                  dimensional portals, married terrestrial women, and sired                  giants, read Stephen Quayle's fascinating book "Aliens & Fallen                  Angels".
