I
think it's drawing on all mythology; comic book, religion, ancient,
philosophical.
Zack Snyder
I recently watched the latest edition of the age
old Superman
story ‘Man of Steel’ and wasn’t surprised to encounter themes that relate to
world domination and the take-over of Earth by an outside force that yet again is
looking to rescue its own source of power, its ‘own world’ by trashing another
planet, in this case our home - Earth. It’s the largest article I've posted to date, so I’d make a cup
of tea (and a snack), because we are going off planet and back again.
First a brief history
The original story
of Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe
Shuster, both from Jewish migrant families, tells of an alien child (a god)
born to Earth from a distant planet called Krypton. In fact the original ideas
for the story were more about the ‘reign of the Superman’ from the comic The
Advance Guard of Future Civilization #3, a fanzine
published by Siegel in 1933 (below). No connection to the German Nazi obsession
for ‘the Supermen’ I am sure? Of course long before Superman was a comic
book concept, the 'arch black magician' Aleister Crowley was writing about
‘Supermen’ in 1917 in his work Moon Child. Just like Superman, Crowley seemed to get all over the world at the turn of the 20th
Centruy. The character Lex Luthor (played by Kevin Spacey) in the not yet
released Man of Steel 2 looks a bit Crowley-like.
Maybe the fact and the ficition have merged somewhere here? More on that
another time.
According to the
story Superman, or Kal-El, was born on the planet Krypton,
before being rocketed to Earth as an infant by his scientist/Leader father Jor-El, (more on EL later) moments before Krypton's destruction. The latest depiction of Jor–El (played by the actor Russell Crowe) and Krypton’s high council are visually symbolic of the Ruling El-ite that we find on
ancient Earth, from Sumeria to Egypt and beyond. The regalia and thrones of the
High elders of Krypton are no doubt inspired by the imagery and history of the
ancient El-ite bloodlines on Earth.
Krypton and the
Genesis Chamber
The
film starts on the Planet Krypton, where Lara
LorVan, the wife of Jor-El (Ayelet
Zurer) has just given
birth to a son. She and her husband have birthed their son naturally, in
violation of the basic laws of the planet, where babies are to be bred
through genetic engineering with a planetary 'Codex' that imprints just what a
person's place in life is to be (leader, scientist, general, etc). Mmm, sounds like they wrote
the script for a future Earth? Similar themes can be found in the Matrix movie where machines
harvest humans as an energy source and how humanity is kept in illusion – the Matrix. Here we have the
connections to the obsession in our world with genetic purity, trans-humanism
and the ‘Brave
New World’ theme
that speaks of an El-ite’s desire to take over planet Earth (humanity). The gas Krypton
comes form the Greek word ‘Kryptos’ meaning ‘the hidden one’ and I am sure this is
significant in terms of the symbolism and science relating to Earth's atmosphere and how it is ‘being
changed’ today. It’s not just in the movies you know? I’ll come back to this is
later.
The Genesis chamber and the embryonic pods in the Matrix movies (same symbolism) and speaks of 'machines' that create life forms to suit the' machine mind'. |
General Zod |
In
the movie the council is set upon by General Zod
(above), played by Michael Shannon, intending to take control of the planet. Though Jor-El
does agree the Council's decisions are not right, he refuses to join Zod's coup. Zod
orders Jor-El to be arrested, but Jor-El escapes fleeing to the planet's birthing
chamber. The thought of any baby being ‘popped in a pod’ an rocketed to another
planet is quite grotesque in my view, but on Earth we have some very odd baby carrying
vehicles which are on show to the public at the El-ite mansion of the Duke
and Duchess of Devonshire in England. A Saturn-like snake push chair and the
Planet Krypton-like sledge, which of course would have been pulled by the
‘Nanny’ goat. You can’t make this stuff up.
After stealing the Codex from the chamber, Jor-El
races back to his home, where his wife Lara has found a planet to send their
baby to. Though Lara is sad at the loss of their child, Jor-El claims he will
live his life in a new way: free of the limitations
imposed by Kryptonians. Their son, Kal-El will be able to
choose his way in life. As they prepare to launch the pod containing their Kal-El,
Zod and his crew enter their residence, demanding that Jor-El hand over
the Genesis Codex. Jor-El claims it is in the pod with his son. Zod and Jor-El fight, before Jor-El is killed. In the fight, Lara engages the pod's
engines, and it shoots into the sky as the planet Krypton breaks apart.
Angered that Jor-El and his wife have doomed the
Kryptonian race with the removal of the Codex, Zod orders his followers to
shoot down the pod. However, his orders are suddenly cancelled when Kryptonian
security ships appear, arresting them to face charges of treason.
As punishment, General Zod and his followers are
banished to ‘The Phantom Zone’, a non-physical prison, for their attempted coup.
What a nice bloke... |
The Phantom Zone
The Phantom zone is symbolic of the ‘in between
worlds’ talked about by many shamanic cultures and is the source of reference
for what various religions call the ‘demons’,
Jinn or the Archons. Interestingly, the original 1980’s Superman 2
movie showed Zod and his commanders encased in a phantom ‘Square’, but in Man
of Steel they are encased in ice with both versions combined
to suggest that they have been ‘held in a freeze vibration’ just beyond the
‘solid’ 3 Dimensional world. Both fire and ice
symbolism can be attributed to the Archons and the many ‘trickster gods’ found
in ancient mythology. Loki is but one example. See my Avengers Assemble article.
Gnostic Thought
The
Gnostics referred to the physical
5 sense world as ‘nous’ and made a clear distinction between that and ‘pneuma’,
the eternal spirit or what can be called
Consciousness (Awareness). The Gnostics also had a very different and far more accurate
view of Judeo-Christianity, which they were persecuted for throughout history - see the Cathars in 12th Century France for one example.
In short, Gnostics said that the way to escape illusory reality was through
self-realisation secured through Gnosis, or hidden spiritual knowledge. The Gnostics also
talked about the Bythos or ‘Void’, the ‘primal ground’ that existed before our
world was created. I would suggest that the reference to the Phantom zone in
the Superman
story relates to an aspect of the Gnostic teachings of Bythos and the 'worlds within worlds.'
A
Star is Born on Earth
Many worlds away, the Krypton Genesis pod carrying Kal-El
rockets into Earth's atmosphere, like a comet and touching down near Smallville, Kansas. Here we see in all versions of the
story the symbolic theme of the arrival of a god
(the son of El) coming to Earth.
Raised by human parents and
adopted by a Kansas
farmer his
Earth father Jonathan Kent (played by
Kevin Costner) and
his wife, the child is raised as Clark Kent. Imbued with a strong moral compass and it is quite clear that the movie
attempts to reinforce Christian themes if not least visually. To the trained
eye Superman appears as a Jesus figure ‘arrested’ by Pilates (America’s ‘Roman’
military) and brought before the powers that be as the saviour-figure he is destined to be.
Jor-El and the
Inner Chamber of 6
In the original
Superman movies
Jor-El (and the inner council chamber) is a monument to the planet Saturn,
which is clear when we look deeper at the symbolism. In the original 80’s
movies (Superman
and Superman 2)
Jor-El
played by Marlon Brando is depicted as a physical representation for the God
of Occult Law
– Saturn. He wears black robes, making him a vessel for Saturn, like the 'judges and courts on Earth'. I think the ‘S’ gives it a way though eh? More on that shortly...
Jor-El The 'Godfather' off planet – S is for Saturn! |
The 3 traitors (a shadow
trinity) in both the 80’s film and the recent Man of Steel are caught up in the
dual rings which encircle them as they move up and down, forming the ‘rings’
(Ring-not-pass) - another Saturn symbol
EL – El-ite – Elohim
The noun El according to scholars was found at the top of a list
of Gods as the "Ancient of Gods" or the "Father of all
Gods", in the ruins of the royal archive of the Ebla
civilization, in the archaeological site of Tell
Mardikh in Syria dated to 2300 BC. The bull was also symbolic
of Ēl and his son Baʻal Hadad and both wore bull horns on their
headdress. Ba'al of course was another Jesus figure that predated Christianty, whoops.
Ä’l
is listed at the head of many pantheons and was the father God among the Canaanites.
El is also the Elohim the
creator of Adam in the biblical Genesis, hence the connection to the ‘Genesis
chamber’ in the Superman story, and according to researchers the Elohim are the race of
gods, or ‘God’ in the Hebrew Bible. El is also the Demiurge and the 'Father God' (God Father) that
is obviously a reference to the ‘entity’ we call Saturn. See David Icke's latest
books for more information.
The Lord Archon - the Architect |
In
Gnostic texts the Archons serve the ‘Demiurge’ who is a fake ‘god’ that created
our ‘physical’ or material reality as we perceive it. The Demiurge is also
known in the Gnostic texts as the ‘Lord Archon’ and they quote him as saying:
‘Come let us create a man according to the image of God and according to our
likeness.’
The Hebrew Saturn god El and his biblical Elohim are the Gnostic Lord
Archon/Demiurge and Archons under another name. He (always an he) appears in the Matrix movie as the Architect
of the Matrix (see above). The English artist and writer William Blake depicts
the Demiurge in the late 18th Century as the white haired-bearded
Saturn god called, The Ancient of Days - Urizen (above middle). He is the classic
image of God (white beard on a cloud). Both the creators of Superman
and the
Matrix
movies, I would suggest were heavily inspired by the Hebrew belief in EL and the (Elohim) all of which
relate to the worship of Saturn. The source from where we get Sabbath,
Saturn-day and Sion, to show but a few examples.
Archon
Zod, Borgs, Jinn and Saturn’s Armies
I wasn’t shocked to see Zod and his commanders depicted as they were in
the movie, all clad in black armor. The use of the black skull-like masks and
Scarab-like metallic costumes and the space ships that look like the Scarab
beetles are clearly connected to ancient creation myths. Zod's space craft look like giant Beetles in the movie, just as the Sentinels in the Matrix movies looked like giant insects. The Scarab was
considered a creator god for the ancient Egyptians, a symbol of life force, the
sun, the Earth (rolling the ball of earth) and of ‘Hope’. The Sun the Scarab holds
I would suggest is the old Sun – Saturn (see David Talbot’s book The Saturn
Myth). The Scarab can be connected to the Titan Aristaios,
who according to myth was the only giant not slain in the wars between the gods
and the titans and was therefore turned into a dung beetle by Gaia (Earth) for
his protection from the wrath of the Olympians. Connected to this is the
knowledge that a shard is a
tough sheath or covering, such as a shell, scale, or plate, or the “elytron” or
outer wing covering of a beetle.
Saturn Scarab - the black army |
The ‘Shard’ is the
‘all spark’ hunted by the decepticons’ in the Transformers movies. What do we now have in London (Baby-london)
– we have the Shard (a little bit of
Krypton on Earth). The S in the Superman movie
according to Jor-El is said to stand for ‘Hope’ and this fits with the symbolism of
the Scarab creator god too. I’ll come to the letter S shortly.
A shard of Krypton |
The Darth Vader character from Starwars and the many
other renditions of this ’dark’ Saturn-like force has been hinted at in Norman
Bergrun’s Youtube interviews and book The Ring Makers of Saturn,
who at one point Bergrun mentions ‘tall ‘jet black’ beings that were supposed to have been seen walking off a
ship by witnesses in the 60’s. Who knows? I
am not saying that there are actually aliens that look like Vader or Zod, but
what I am saying, is that there are certainly ‘entities’ that feed off the lack
of empathy, compassion and the evil acts that are
expressed through these ‘characters’.
Ibn
Taymiyyah (1263–1328), the renowned Islamic scholar, described the Archon/Jinn
as ‘ignorant, untruthful, oppressive and treacherous’, although common Islamic
belief is that they can have various states of being. He said that the Jinn
engage in manipulative ‘magic’ and orchestrate events and misinformation at riruals. The Jinn/Archons or demons are the age old deceivers and destroyers
of worlds by feeding off the energy of that planet. You could also say that Saturn’s little helpers are everywhere!
Some of Saturn's little helpers - "we 'looove' black and Zod and Darth Vader and Beetles." |
Is that Dave Lee Travis behind the guy with the cross? (I am showing my age now)? I'd go to their church just for the Jedi Sun-day school training. Anyway, Back to the symbolism and the movie...
In the film Clark
finds a suit with the letter 'S' on its chest inside a Krypton ship embed in the ancient ice at the Arctic. He also
finds out that the crest on the suit (and on the Code (shard) key he has had since arriving on Earth is a symbol of
hope and the symbol of his true family. Jor-El appears holographically and explains to Kal-El that the planet's
sun has made him stronger, and has been helping him manifest powers for some
time. Hearing this, Clark (Kal-El) begins to push his powers: first taking flying leaps,
before eventually being able to fly. He is becoming ‘Superman’.
Saturn's number and letter |
The
serpent needs the Sun too to warm its serpent cold blood and 'Superman' of course
is the flying Serpent-Sun God, the saviour who returns to lead Earth to a new
world. Saturn or Cronos has also been linked to
Satanism, and the worship of Lucifer (Helios), when it merged with Solar -
Venus Cults. The ‘eye’ and the ‘Lemiscate' symbol (on the jacket above) can be linked to Saturn. As David
Talbot writes about Saturn:
Origins of the Mysterious Red and Blue
Battles between opposing heroes can be found in all of the world myths,
through to the duals between comic book super heroes of the Twentieth Century.
Some of these ancient battles relate to direct fighting between royal families
and the many decedents (bloodlines) that claim kinship to the gods. The battle
between Zod and Kal-El relate
to this in Man of Steel. The Mahibharata of India is a classic example of an epic conflict
between feuding royal families and in William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet we have similar examples of warring opposites. The
Ulster Cycle of Celtic Ireland, which involves superhero figures and their
attempt to steal a ‘prize bull’ and El of course relates to the Bull in mythology, too
many to mention here. Many of the themes within these narratives relate to the
royal lineage (the El-ite) of the
gods on Earth and the bickering between the ‘blue blood’ families too.
In the creation myths and migration
records of the Toltecs of Central America, there is reference to opposing colours of a mysterious red
and blue spring - a source. According to the Toltec
these red and blue symbols, (a circle and square spiral), relate to their warrior
god Huitzilopochtli (another Superman below right). The red and blue colour symbolism
relates to the meeting place between Heaven and Earth (or sky and land) and
every temple was considered to be a central place of focus for these dual
powers. Many dual deities, especially in the Americas and Asia were often
depicted with a blue or red skin colour and this also relates to the opposing forces of sky and Earth,
good and evil. The choice of red and blue for the ‘light sabers’ in the Starwars
movies also relate to this symbolism I am
sure. Mr Lucas must know all this. Interestingly, Krypton has an important role in production and usage of the
‘krypton fluoride laser’ used in the nuclear fusion energy research
in confinement experiments. The laser has a high beam uniformity, short
wavelength, and the ability to modify the spot size to track - in other words it
would make a nice light saber.
The same colour codes are used in the Matrix movie, for the pills (red or blue) that lead Neo into another version of reality. This is no coincidence and the directors of the Matrix movies seem to be accessing a hidden knowledge that speaks of the ‘time of change’ and the fulfilling of the prophecies at this time. Blue was often symbolic of the male cosmic force (magic from the stars) and red related to the feminine blood of the Earth. The red cape and ’red’ in general is commonly associated with danger, sacrifice, passion, fire, beauty, blood, anger, socialism and communism, and in China and many other cultures, with happiness. It’s is also associated with the ‘stars’ and Saturn and it’s not so surprising when we see red and blue (and black) used in political icons, the music/film industry (red carpets) and logos. Red is used for the costume of the Super hero called Saturn Girl during the Silver Age of comics, when Earth is a member of the ‘United Planets’ and home to its military branch, the Science Police. Sounds like the World Police force to me..?
Two Saturn girls greet each other (middle). |
While
I am looking at Saturn, both the Warner Brothers and DC Comics logo seem to
suggest Saturn symbolism too, with the rings encircling the body of the logos.
I think the Sci-Fi logo says it all really.
Back to the Movie
As
the movie unfolds, we are shown snippets of the young Clark Kent struggling
with his super human abilities and how he hides them from his friends, as
advised by his Earth father. His senses are bombarded at one point where we see
‘through his eyes’ showing humanity and his environment as purely
‘non-physical’, skeletal and of course X-ray like
When
Clark demands of his Father to know what's 'wrong with him', Jonathan shows his
son the pod he came to Earth in, along with a strange metallic item that was
found with him. Jonathan claims he had a metallurgist examine it, but it is
comprised of elements not found on Earth. Imprinted on the small fragment of
metal is a shield-like shape containing an "S" (see above).
Now
a man (Superman) moving from job
to job, rescues workers at a flaming oil rig and ends up discovering where a
mysterious space craft has been found in the ice of the Arctic, thousands of
years old.. There is more to know about what is hidden in the Arctic and the
North Pole in relation to off world technologies I am sure. Eventually Clark
meets Lois Lane (Amy Adams) and the film rolls on.
Preparing
to reveal his identity
Father and son |
The Return of Zod - the Destroyer
No matter how violent, every action I take is for the greater
good of my people.
General Zod
The
military receive word of a strange ship in geosynchronous orbit around Earth. Soon, others report the strange sighting, but are surprised when power
is cut off to all parts of the world, and a message is broadcast from General
Zod demanding that the people of Earth hand over Kal-El within 24 hours, or
there will be consequences. A worldwide manhunt is initiated to find this
Kal-El and as I showed earlier Superman hands himself in Jesus style, because
he knows that Zod will not leave Earth in peace, but he is also wondering if he
should trust humanity too. His decision is made when a Pastor tells Clark that
sometimes one must take a leap of faith, yet more ‘religious’ programming and off he goes to be Superman.
A
black craft appears to bring Kal-El to Zod's ship. The craft is commanded by Faora-Ul (Antje
Traue) (below), who also demands of General
Swanwick (Harry Lennix),
that Lois also be taken with them. Its Neo and trinity, Iron Man and Pepper
Potts, all over again.
On
board the ship, Zod welcomes Kal (Clark), who few moments later collapses to
the floor of the ship.
Clark's body is simply adjusting to the Kryptonian atmosphere aboard the ship.
Zod over Metropilis |
Clark (Kal-El) passes out, and finds himself in a dreamlike
vision drowning in skulls and Zod explains to Clark that after the destruction
of Krypton, the portal to the Phantom Zone where they were trapped, was opened
again.
The
demons came through the portal so to speak, and in our reality, the same has
been shown to happen when worlds collide. Utilizing the portal's Phantom Drive,
they were able to transport themselves all across the galaxy. Searching out the
various planets which colonizing ships were sent, their searches for a new
planet proved unfruitful, as each of the colonists sent to these various
planets were found to have perished. However, Zod and his crew took what
they could from the remnants of their civilization, including a "World-Building"
machine. Zod claims that he intends to turn Earth into a New Krypton, but Clark
(Superman) is unwilling to go along with this plan and the massive battle for
Earth ensues.
The battle for Earth |
The
World Builders
As the battle unfolds the Kryptons lead by Zod unleash the massive ‘world builders’ (engines) that begin a magnetic onslaught of the planet. Positioned over New York (metropolis and India) they begin to use the electromagnetic field of the Earth to change the atmosphere of the planet causing nuclear devastation as they do.

Positioned over New York (metropolis and India) they begin to use the electromagnetic field of the Earth to change the atmosphere of the planet causing nuclear devastation as they do.
What is clear to me is that a force that controls our
world is also ‘changing our world’ and its atmosphere for its own agenda. What
many researchers have pointed out in recent years is that the Archon vibration
(the Krypton reality), or the archon state of being, I touched on earlier, are the age
old gods, demons that have possessed
those that have trashed our planet through war, indsusty and technology. The same force is using a new wave of technology from smart grids,
to radiation through Wi-Fi, from GMO monoculture (Big Biotech) to mass toxicity, and they are
altering the blue print of our world (our DNA). Okay there are no ‘world builders' hovering (not yet), but the effects of these insane El-ite
are devastating our world. Why is our world changing? Maybe the El-ite
are preparing it for their gods? Remember that Krypton is (from the Greek:kryptos)
and means "the hidden one", and even though Krypton is inert for most practical purposes as a chemical (gas) in our world, its the chemicals that are pouring down on us and that are in our food and water we need to be concerened about. Only aliens would pollute everything we eat, drink and breathe. See chemtrails, fluoride in water and aspartame poisoning for starters.
Krypton Cities before its destruction |
As I touched on before the Archons were described by the Gnostic texts as
inorganic and what we call robotic and computer-like. What we are seeing unfold on Earth today is the
Archon mind and their El-ite bloodlines destroying the organic and genetic variety of the
Earth - making it ever more like their own mono-reality. Just look at the
urban sprawls of Earth form Brazil to China and you can see the Archon-dead
zones that remind me of the imagery of the fictional Krypton (above).
In
the movie Krypton is being brought to Earth, even if it means totally killing off
humanity. Just as the Decepticons in the Transformers movies (another
expression of the Archon mind) are bringing their planet Cybertron to Earth, they too will
not stop at culling humanity for their own cause.
The common themes here are no different to the extremities of how ‘our weather’ has been used as a weapon too thanks to technology called HARRP based in Alaska; and of course not least how this connects to the Agenda 21 vision for a very different Earth - one with less people on it. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is a major vehicle for the implementation of Agenda 21 by driving people from the land. Just look at what the El-lite (through commerce, business, politics and industry) have done to a once living organic Earth with their chemical factories, nuclear power stations, road systems, waste disposal, plastics and sprawling cities of concrete and tarmac. The beautiful Earth is being turned into the land of the Archons – the land of the Kryptonites.

In the film Zod's vision was ‘Krypton on Earth’ or Hell on Earth from humanity’s
perspective - a dead Zone - a radiated planet. Or a blank canvas, so to
speak, to build that NEW WORLD ORDER.
Thank goodness it’s just a movie..?
In the end the ‘Man of Steel’ meets up to his name by flying
into the heart of the machine (Neo in the Matrix style) up through the electromagnetic force
field destroying one of the World Builder ships. This in turn destroys its twin
that is fixed above Metropolis (all is connected through energy). The
‘churning’ of the electromagnetic field is altered and the devastation that comes to
and end before its too late – thanks to Superman - the god-alien with a conscious,
because he is part human I suppose.
See you next time
