Jupiter (Lucifer) Ascending & the Harvesting of Souls


Well its been almost a year since I put a review up on ‘Through Ancient Eyes’, mainly due to other commitments, but the current release by the Chicago born Wachowskis, Jupiter Ascending, gave me the push to write something once again. Don’t get too excited though the movie wasn’t that great.

The Wachowskis, (Lana Wachowski - previously Laurence Wachowski  and Andy Wachowski), have given us ground-breaking movies like The Matrix (1999), V for Vendetta (2005), a live action version of a Japanese anime series, Speed Racer (2008) and the epic Cloud Atlas (2012) see my review here. What has become clear after looking at what the Wachowski’s direct is that they do have knowledge of both Gnostic occult symbolism and the true nature of reality? The movie has everything in it, except ‘Lion Symbolism’, in terms of Alien overlords, DNA seeding of humanity and of course the reaping of planets by an Elite.

In this review I am not going to spend much time telling you the plot, mainly because I thought the storyline was pretty dull, compared to some of their other projects. But of course I am going to look at some of the ‘symbolism’ and wider themes connected to this narrative.

The Abrasax Dynasty (see also ancient Egypt, Rome, Babylon and our Royalty, etc)
In the movie we are shown an alien dynasty called the Abrasax, notably two brothers Balem (Eddie Redmayne), Titus (Douglas Booth) and a sister called and Kalique (Tuppence Middleton). Balem is the elder heir to a ruling alien dynasty that appear to be living like our earthly elite ‘magnified hundreds of thousands of times’. Where Earth’s Elite own countries, these kids own planets. The royalty in Jupiter Ascending ‘rule by DNA’, the DNA of the ‘gods’ (aliens) and the main plot is about looking for the true heir to one of their planets – the Earth.
Balem (below) the son with the most at stake is the ‘darkest’ of the three a classic psychopathic entity with no remorse for his actions.

War, death, I want it all!
The word play on ‘Bal’, ‘Titus’ and ‘Kali’ are so obvious to the trained eye and of course Bal or Ba’al especially was a God of the Levant and the ‘Jupiter figure’ worshipped by the Pre Christians and the Phoenicians as a ‘Christ figure’. The word Ba'al can be translated as ‘lord’, ‘owner’, ‘master’, or ‘husband’, and referred to a ‘group of deities’ (see above). Titus is a lucid connection to the Titans and to Saturn’s reign and of course Kalique is the Dark Goddess of the Underworld in Hindu myth. The ‘triad of Abrasax siblings’ in the movie were born to the Goddess Seraph, which is another lucid connection to the Seraph of Biblical text.
The Abraxas found in insignia and Masonic art (no surpises there eh?)
Abrasax also comes from the Gnostic and Egyptian knowledge alluding to the Archons and their creators.  Abrasax is therefore the God of ‘division’ and ‘separation’ (the great Architect), the one that Essenes warned of at Qumran and the later Cathars of Southern France preached about, saying that the world was the creation of Abrasax. It could also be that the three siblings (four if you add the ‘Queen to bee’, Jupiter herself) are connected not least symbolically in the movie to the dwarf stars ‘Jupiter’, ‘Saturn’ and the wanderer Venus. What the movie does brilliantly is show the ‘scale’ and ‘vastness’ of these planets (stars) and therefore the size of the structures they could harbour? Are we so sure that these celestial bodies don’t harbour other life? Come on folks, its time to expand out imaginations!

 Seraph the mother of the Abrasax siblings
It’s not the first time the Wachowskis have used pure religious Gnostic symbolism in their films. See also Seraph in The Matrix movie, who was ‘programmer’ who ‘fell’ from a god-like 'machine world' and was banished for his disobedience to the Merovingian, I’ll come back to the Merovingian symbolism shortly.
In essence Seraph (above left) was a fallen angel, a character that was ‘wingless’, (implying that he is an angel who has lost his wings. Again, in Jupiter Ascending, both Caine and Stinger, Jupiter’s protectors, have had their wings removed.

By 'Jove' is that more Occult symbolism?
Jupiter or Jove was said to be the king of the gods and the god of ’sky’ and thunder in myth. Jupiter was also the chief deity of Roman state religion throughout the Republican and Imperial eras, until Christianity became the dominant religion of the Empire. It is Jupiter (with Saturn) that presides over all Roman religion and sacrifice to the gods. Jupiter (or Zeus in Greek Myth) depicted as the Eagle (the sovereign bird of birds) clutching the Thunderbolt is another symbol found in the ‘esoteric’ symbols of empires form Rome to the Nazis, and of course the Eagle standard used by Rome (and every other Dictatorship since) can be found decorated into the pulpits of Christendom.

Jupiter is the god of the New World Order. Saturn, while his father, now worshipped in secret by the same Elite was the father God of the Old World Order. Both are massively connected, not least physically in terms of their size in our Solar system, but as ‘forces’, or vibrations that play a part in the movie we call life on Earth.

Statues of Jupiter as the Eagle can be seen with the child Ganymede (one of its Moons) at stately homes all over Britain and relate to the Jupiter and the Age of Aquarius.
 The Elite bloodline (Jupiter) families are obsessed with symbolism. Left) the Rothschild Waddesdon Manor. Middle) the crypt of Eaton Hall, Cheshire.
The Romans regarded Jupiter as the equivalent of the Greek Zeus, and in Roman art, the myths and iconography of Zeus are adapted under the name Iuppiter. In the Greek-influenced tradition, Jupiter was the brother of Neptune and Pluto. Each presided over one of the three realms of the universe: sky, the waters, and the underworld. From this perspective the sky, the primordial waters (oceans) and the inner Earth and Underworld, where all connected. They were the place of ‘origins’ the home of the gods and the so-called Lucifer Planets. Saturn of course has its own symbolism I have touched on in other reviews, but I will stick my neck out here and say that maybe the Wachowskis didn't want to be 'so obvious' and therefore focused on Jupiter rather than Saturn in this narrative? In fact I would suggest that the twins were possibly 'inverting' Jupiter symbolism, just as the Elite have on Earth (see the Eagles above) so to use its vibration for Saturnian ends?

Lucifer Ascending
There are many connection to the Greek Zeus, the Roman Jupiter, and the Christian Devil. The Horned bearded Ammon and ‘Baal’ are two deities also connected to this imagery. Yahweh, Amun and Maat (in Egypt) were also depicted with horns and were said to have fashioned the first two people (Adam and Eve) out of clay. Symbolically we have the ‘Jupiter gods’ creating the first human prototype or the 'Abrasax industries' doing it by genetically creating the human being – Homo sapiens in the film?
The ‘Abrasax gods’ have a tentative connection to the ‘Demon Lords’ that created the Illusion – the Matrix and enslaved humanity within it. The machine like consciousness (The Sentinels) depicted in their Matrix Trilogy can also be seen hinted at in other Science Fiction narratives, not least Battle Star Galactica, where we see ‘Lucifer’ as the IL Series Droid of the Cylons both second-in-command and assistant to ‘Baltar's Basestar. Yet, more ‘Bal’ word play!
Just to digress slightly, interestingly the high powered Belgian satanic cult by the name of 'Abrasax' (Abraxas) was briefly mentioned during the horrific Marc Dutroux court case, involving the abduction and torture of girls in Belgium in the 90’s.

The movie title Jupiter Ascending  bears a subtle similarity to Lucifer Rising a film directed by Kenneth Anger on the Satanic Majesties-era Stones, with Jagger donating a dissonant synthesiser soundtrack to Anger’s cinematic enactment of one of Alister Crowley’s rituals - Inauguration of My Demon Brother. Crowley also appears on the Beatle’s Sgt Pepper Montage album cover illustration and on Micheal Jackson’s Dangerous album illustration, which also has symbols of all-seeing-eyes, lakes of fire and other Masonic symbols. Crowley was one of the most influential figures on pop /film culture and entertainment in the 20th Century. His famous motto: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law” embodies the rising up through rebellion and chaos.

Interestingly this is a motto attributed to V in graphic novel V for Vendetta turned into a movie by the Wachoski’s. According to some writers, Ian Fleming based Blofeld in Gold Finger, on Crowley and it seems that Crowley also gave Churchill his ‘V’ hand sign. His influence on symbols (hand signs), rock music and the post-beat counterculture is well documented in Gary Lachman’s book, Turn Off Your Mind.

The Bloodlines of the Bee and the snake (and Lion).
Jupiter Jones, the main character in the movie played by Mila Kunis is an ‘Earth bound’ Goddess who has the same DNA as the Abrasax mother Goddess on Jupiter. As writers such as David Icke have been saying for many years, the importance of DNA to the Elite is paramount and it is why the DNA has been focused on in ancient times. Evidence for such ideas can be found on the Sumerian tablets and not least the ‘Genetic Disc’ made from lydite and shows DNA splicing. The late Lloyd Pye did a lot of great research in this area, not least his work on the Starchild skull.
The prehistoric genetic disc found in South America shows biological details like male sperms, female egg cell and the genitals, the fertilized egg, foetus and the growing embryo.
The Goddess and ‘Queen Bee’ is another symbol that relates to the knowledge associated with the Matracondrial DNA and therefore the obsession with ‘queens and kings’ and their blood/DNA throughout history.
The 33rd Degree Freemason and historian points out in his book, ‘The Secret Teachings of All Ages’ that the Bee and the Fleur-de-lis symbol are interchangeable. So in the movie we have a scene where Jupiter (Milas Kunis) is taken into care by Sting Apini  (Sean Pen) a Han Solo figure with part Bee DNA, to be protected. There she is quickly shown to be a ‘commander of Bees’ and from then on in the movie the two fallen angel protectors, Caine and Sting refer her to as ‘royalty’.
It’s also worth noting that the bee was an emblem of Potnia, the Minoan-Mycenaean ‘Mistress’, also referred to as ‘The Pure Mother Bee’. Her priestesses received the name of ‘Melissa’ (‘bee’) and in addition, priestesses worshipping Artemis and Demeter were called ‘Bees’. The Bee symbolism in the film is blatant and could be reinforcing the idea of a revolution from within the ‘elite’ hierarchy. The lion symbolism is also important here because it has been used to both ‘enslave’ humanity as much as it is now been used to ‘set free’.
Another aspect to Jupiter Ascending are the links to Lucifer being a woman and Jupiter Jones is clearly depicted as the ‘double goddess’ in the film. She is both mother of the Abrasax (Archons) and the ascending queen of the Earth. She is therefore Sophia, Isis, Demeter, Venus (the Maleficent as her dark side) and the star that rises (ascends) in the sky. The Wachowskis couldn’t have made it any plainer.
The oldest depictions of the Demiurge/Abrasax, (the Lord Archon) is also a lion headed snake, or a Cockatrice. A power that was once given away and  can be ‘taken back’.
The Bee symbolism relates to the Merovingian royalty see also The Matrix movie, and the European Royal bloodlines. In alchemical and occult texts the bee and the serpent are often used to denote the hive (bloodline) and it’s link to a genetic stream that, in my view, is overshadowed by an alien ‘predator’ consciousness. If you control the 'bees', you control the ability to 'give life' on Earth.
The figure above left shows 13 bloodlines (bees) feeding off the queen serpent goddess. In essence, the Alien Dynasty, need and an Earth bound dynasty, ‘with the same DNA’, to govern the genetically modified ‘worker bees’.  It’s said to be the Eve Gene that gives us some scientific evidence for a Mitochondrial ‘Queen Eve’ named after mitochondria DNA, and I would say that homo sapiens is the current ‘model’ that has been implanted or supplanted on Earth to do as it is told.
Bee like space ships
The Bee and the serpent was a symbol associated with the Hyksos priest-kings (or Shepard Kings) of Egypt and their connection to what later became the aristocratic families of Europe, not least the Rothschild banking elite. Could the Abrasax who rule from Jupiter (in the movie) be a mirror of the rule over the Earths resources by these elite families on behalf of their off planet ancestors? Of course they could?
The staff held by the shepherd, wise men, the Moses figures, druids and other religious figures, is a symbol for the ancient cults associated with the planets and stars. The ‘good shepherd’, for example, was the name used for the ancient astrologers that watched their ‘flocks of stars’. Shepherd symbolism in religious text relates to the already mentioned Hyksos Priest Kings of Egypt that would later appear in the Old Testament as the Israelite father figures, such as David, Solomon and Moses. Both King Alexandra the Great was depicted with horns just like Moses and of course both are symbols of Ammon (Jupiter) a horned god-man who ‘rises up’ from his ‘royal heritage’ to lead the worker bees out of captivity.  Solomon was said to be the son of David, who was King in Jerusalem, one who mastered and controlled ‘all spirits of the air, on the earth, and under the earth. In simple speak, he was not of this world. A Lord who conversed with off-world demons and the Abrasax.

The symbol for the Merovingian bloodline was often symbolised through the fig leaf symbol (Adam and Eve) was quite possibly also connected to the creation of Homo Sapiens and later became the Fleur-de-Lis used by the Babylon/Sumerian priest kings. Jupiter Ascending allures to this connection when Caine (Jupiter’s protector) says, “…human life began not on Earth but on another planet called Orus”.

The splicing on Orus
The word ‘Orus’ despite having word play connections to the God H’orus’ of  Egypt, more importantly relates to the French word for bear ‘Ours’ and the importance of the human DNA being created ‘off planet’. The movie shows a myriad of alien life forms, ‘human and animal mixed’, not least the main protector of Jupiter ‘Cain Wise’ who is half wolf and half human (below left). There are plenty of other spliced characters to choose from, owls, cats, mice, etc, in the film.
below)The Kachina of Hopi culture are also said to be form the skies and connected to the sky people and off-world deities.
In almost all indigenous cultures, some shamans were said to be able to turn into animals, this was said to be possible due to the unique kinship (being anthropomorphic), through their DNA that connected them to many original (some extraterrestrial) species, possibly off planet. It was also believed that shamans were ‘relations’ to various star people and the Bear, especially, was considered an ancient clan from a time when humans were more animal-like. In fact the understanding of the ‘clans’ in indigenous culture is a direct reference to the ‘splicing’ and the origins of their ancestors.

Is it too much of a stretch of the imagination to ponder on the ancient Neanderthal bear-like monkey human through the legends of creatures such as Bigfoot? It is said that the Neanderthal cranial capacity was thought to have been as large as that of a Homo sapiens, perhaps larger, indicating that their brain size may have been comparable, or larger, as well. One thing for sure is that the two species were not the same. In 2008, a group of scientists created a study using three-dimensional computer-assisted reconstructions of Neanderthal infants based on fossils found in Russia and Syria. The study showed Neanderthal and modern human brains were the same size at birth, but by adulthood, the Neanderthal brain was much larger than the modern human brain. My feeling is that Neanderthals wouldn't have worked 9 till 5, or voted so well, if they had been allowed to continue to evolve freely. If you’re an ‘alien’ off planet corporation that wants a ‘take over’ of a world to mine resources, the last thing you want is a population that can see what your up to? Better to install your own workers.
The old model - never proven to be hoax after all these years.
The Athabaskan Native American tribe, the Sinkoyne, according to Folklorist E.W Gifford, writing in a 1937 article, The Journal of American Folklore, mentions tales of bear-like men. The story of Beowulf (Bee-wolf) in Anglo Saxon folklore also tells of a bear-man-hero and so does the story of Grendel in Scandinavian myth. The legend of Masha and the Bear in Russian Folklore (probably the inspiration for Goldilocks and the Three Bears), we find common themes that hint at a race of Bear People who once roamed the Earth many thousands of years ago.

In a very intriguing book by Stewart Sverdlow, called Blue Blood, True Blood, the author lists at least 12 different alien species that have had a massive impact on the evolution of this planet. One in particular, he calls the bear (Bigfoot) clan. Bear Butte in Wyoming and its associated myths was also used by Spielberg as a focus point of interaction with extraterrestrials and humans in Close Encounters of the Thirds Kind and has legends connected to it with a bear people. On the Jupiter Ascending website Bear Butte (below) is also one of the several 'safe spots' indicated as gateways to escape the ‘Harvest’, something I’ll come back to at the end.
Bear Butte 2010
The main plot is merely the Abrasax bloodline finding out that a goddess has been born on Earth who carries the same DNA combination as their mother and this in effect makes ‘her’ the true inheritor of the Earth. It’s a fight for ownership and resources, as always, and it transpires to a very shocked Jupiter Jones, that humans were genetically seeded to provide an elixir for the Gods. An elixir made of the very ‘cellular essence’ of humans (100 humans to one bottle as the film shows), which keeps the Gods eternally youthful. Makes you wonder how our Royals live so bloody long and where all the thousands of missing kids (and adults) on Earth go every year?

Are the Wachowskis making lucid connections to the stories of Nazi Germany and the creation of soap out of those that were sent to the death camps? Its not the first time such narratives have appeared in their films. See the human battery symbolism in the Matrix and of course the literal human food being consumed in Cloud Atlas. What do these two know?

The Reptilians, the Greys and the Obsession with DNA (databases)
In the movie there are two predominant non-human aliens called the ‘keepers’ that work for the Abrasax lad ‘lord Balem’. They are of course the ‘Winged Draco’ and the so-called Greys of recent UFO literature. These entities can appear and disappear through portholes and dimensional doorways, which reinforces the theme of the ‘illusionary nature of reality’ – The Matrix. In fact they are the ‘Agents’ of Jupiter Ascending if you like.
In the movie Caine explains to Jupiter that the Abrasax family have been splicing humans with other animals for aeon's, and are responsible for events such as the extinction of the dinosaurs. It’s no surprise to find ‘biped reptilians’ in this film because these creatures can be seen as the flyers, the Chitauri and the winged serpents all over the ancient world. The focus on ‘sampling DNA’ in humans by the reptile-like ‘keepers’ (the greys), so to find the Jupiter’s bloodline (in the movie), is possibly why our ruling elite are also obsessed with DNA databases? They are looking for their own and for those that can see through the whole game. I am not going to dwell on this subject, only to say that eventually, people will see that what such as David Icke has been saying for years will be shown to be true. Watch this space!

Flying Saviour figures, Space Cops and Bounty Hunters
As with many Science fiction plots a film wouldn’t be worth its salt without a bounty hunter and a space police of sorts. Jupiter Ascending has them both. In the movie, Caine tries to contact the Aegis (space cops) to help them keep Jupiter safe from the Abrasax royalty.  We see endless fights and stand offs in the film between keepers, the Aegis, caine and bounty hunters. In fact the imagery from the Vedas of ancient India that show the sky battles in Vimas seemed to have inspired the battle scenes between the Aegis, with Caine fighting the Draco and other entities.

 Flying deities in the Vedas
Flying Caine fighting other entities to protect Jupiter
The similarities between the visual imagery of other Sci-Fi movies like Star wars and not least the 80's Flash Gordon movie show the occult/Masonic inspiration. Flash Gordon not only had Masonic Insignia on robes etc, Ming the Merciless (nice guy eh) was another ‘off world Royal God’ that wreaked havoc on other planets. In fact the theme of Jupiter Ascending is somewhat a bit Flash Gordon, with a Flash-like Caine and the Jupiter Dale like Character saving the Earth from destruction.
A not very original Dale or Jupiter Jones being forced to marry a tyrannical off world ruler on another planet, only to be saved by flashy-foot Caine, sorry Gordon. Even the armies of Balem on Jupiter look the same as the armies of Ming in the 80s' movie by Hodges.
Off Planet Red Tape
In order for Jupiter to properly stake her claim on Earth, she is forced to go to the hideous planet Orus and go through a process for registration of her title. Sounds like Earth based society today. She goes through several windows with an ‘android lawyer’ until she is printed with a tattoo on her wrist (gets her micro-chip) and officially allowed to claim ownership of Earth. That simple eh? Androids make an appearance on Orus and are the officiators of the ‘system’ that pervade many other sci-fi narratives. See Elysium and the movie about to come out this spring called Chappie. The drip, drip feed of imagery relating to ‘robot consciousness’ acting as saviours has now reached the point that I expect to see a robot police/army in my lifetime.

The same old plot - Alien Invasions of Earth
Art, religion and mythological scenes were used to re-enforce beliefs that the rulers of that ancient epochs wanted the masses to perceive. Some film makers today, who are no different in terms of their access to knowledge, are like the Leonardo Da Vinci’s of their time. Today the ‘myth-makers’ produce works of art in the form of film so to shape perceptions. The ‘alien reckoning’ is one constant theme that occurs a lot.

Alien invasion related themes were exposed by Dr.Carol Rosin the first
woman corporate manager of Fairchild Industries, and the spokesperson for the acclaimed scientist, Wernher Von Braun. Braun's work during the last years of his life, was to educate the public and decision-makers about why space-based weapons are dangerous, destabilizing, too costly, unnecessary and an undesirable idea. And about the alternatives that are available. Dr Rosin founded the Institute for Security and Cooperation in Outer Space, a Washington DC based think tank. In an Internet article, Carol Rosin says:

“The strategy that Wernher Von Braun taught me was that first the Russians are going to be considered to be the enemy. In fact, in 1974, they were the enemy, the identified enemy. We were told that they had “killer satellites”. We were told that they were coming to get us and control us - that they were “Commies.”

Then terrorists would be identified, and that was soon to follow. We heard a lot about terrorism. Then we were going to identify third-world country “crazies.” We now call them Nations of Concern. But he said that would be the third enemy against whom we would build space-based weapons.

The next enemy was asteroids. Now, at this point he kind of chuckled the first time he said it. Asteroids- against asteroids we are going to build space-based weapons. And the funniest one of all was what he called aliens, extraterrestrials. That would be the final scare. And over and over and over during the four years that I knew him and was giving speeches for him, he would bring up that last card. “And remember Carol, the last card is the alien card. We are going to have to build space-based weapons against aliens and all of it is a lie.”


The constant subliminal imagery associated with aliens, and Jupiter Ascending is no different to the rest, is, in my view, to prepare the human population for the external arrival of the Abrasax - the Gods.

Wing Makers, Ringmakers and Giant space ships all out there?
Dr Norman Bergrun, a much-awarded American scientist and engineer, has been exposing strange phenomena around Saturn for decades. There is much on the Internet about Bergrun. He is a former scientist with what became NASA’s Ames Research Centre and was also employed by Lockheed Missiles and Space Company and Douglas Aircraft. He later established his own research and engineering operation. Bergrun became fascinated by Saturn when he studied photographs from the missions to Saturn by Voyagers I and II that arrived in 1980 and 1981 after first traveling to Jupiter.
Bergrun concluded from a detailed study of the Voyager pictures that the rings of Saturn are not natural. The rings are said to consist almost entirely of water ice, but some writers have suggested that it will eventually be found that the ‘water ice’ is a form of crystal material, possibly unknown on Earth, which is part of the transmitter-receiver system.
Also connected to this is the fact that Saturn spins so fast that even though the surface area is 83.7 times bigger than Earth and the Saturn day lasts less than eleven hours. Food for thought? Bergrun concluded that the rings are generated by gigantic cylindrical objects, electromagnetic in nature which can be identified in many pictures, especially in his book The Ring Makers of Saturn.
The machine world Orus, where human were ‘seeded from in the movie looks remarkably Saturn like.
Giant vehicles in the ring like atmosphere of planets in the movie make you wonder how inspired the Wachowskis were by Bergrun’s work?
Bergrun does not refer to these phenomena as conventional spaceships, but as ‘electromagnetic vehicles’. Where do they come from? I would say from the realm of the gods ‘depicted in the movie Jupiter Ascending and very probably through the inter-dimensional gateways’ that is both Jupiter and Saturn. Bergrun also talks about some very interesting entities in this video clip that were witnessed getting off such giant vehicles. like I say, even though the film is focused on Jupiter, I can't help but feel that the directors had Saturn in mind?

The Harvest
The main theme of the movie is that humans and the planet they have been ‘seeded’ on, Earth in this case, are a ‘commodity’ to be ‘used’ by the rulers on Jupiter and elsewhere. The movie tells of how humans are ‘farmed’ (like bees) to produce an elixir that keeps the ‘alien rulers eternal’. The Abrasax are the ultimate parasite, the ‘ruling parasite’ that feeds off others energy or ‘life force’. The second theme is that the ruling bloodlines ‘eventually ‘harvest’ a species or planet and it is Earth’s time to be 'harvested' in the plot.

The arrival of Jupiter Jones, the maverick goddess with the same DNA as the ruling elite is the only ‘block’ to the coming harvest, hence the obsession with finding her and killing her in the film. My own feelings on the topic is that the ‘harvest’ is a loose connection to the population cull talked of in the New World Order research on one level, like The Georgia Guidestones, but it could also relate to the what has happened to humanity before?

The human genetically modified prototype, created by ET's for ET's and our Junk DNA holds all the clues. Why did the Neanderthal species disappear so abruptly? Were they 'removed' by something that wanted a different prototype populating the new world, a ‘mini harvest’ in ancient times?
If all this seems to be a stretch of the imagination, consider what the Wachowskis have put on the film’s official website. In the ‘Explore The World’  section there is a link to a fictional astronomical research website. It displays an ‘intercepted message’ from the alien Abrasax group and on it shows a calendar with dates until the ‘harvest of Earth’. The graphics are so obviously connected to the Bahomet symbol its not funny.
I am sure the Wachoski’s have played with a bit of symbolism here to show the rise of the ‘Beast’ (Bahomet) or the arrival of the Antichrist in Biblical terms, as the ‘bringer of the harvest’. As scripture describes the Antichrist’s arrival:

"And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ‘ascendeth’ out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them." – Revelation 11:7.

The same themes are found in tons of films and again in Flash Gordon the Emperor Ming says, “Every thousand years, I test each life system in the Universe. I visit it with mysteries, earthquakes, unpredicted eclipses, strange craters in the wilderness. If these are taken as natural, I judge that system ignorant and harmless - I spare it… But if the Hand of Ming is recognised in these events, I judge that system dangerous to us. I call upon the great god Dyzan, and for his greater glory...”

Dyzan is another lucid connection to Lucifer, Alice Bailey, the Theosophical society and the Brotherhood working towards this ascension. In other words, if the aliens are rumbled they might harvest the planet anyhow!

The films website also shows ‘15’ safe havens on the world map that can be used as ‘portholes’ to escape the coming harvest. Some of the places listed are Stonehenge, Bear Butte, Demming, Table Mountain, etc. However, the number 15 is the ‘Devil card’ in the Tarot and of course this denotes humanity or the initiate been bound to indulgence preventing a person from growing ‘spiritually’.  Even in non-fiction the ‘safe havens’ are also portholes, and in my view, were the focus for a ‘harvest’ in terms of a ‘spiritual shut-down’ of the Earth’s connections to a wider cosmos in ancient times; and were policed by forces that work for the beast, the Abrasax bloodline.
In summary, the film wasn’t spectacular but the themes as always didn’t fail to show me that the more we head towards an awakened true human state, the more the ‘unseen’ gate keepers, agents and ‘otherworldly rulers’ will want to keep their food supply active generating the energy they need to survive. The film was yet again another saviour based plot that left me wanting more, but that ‘more’ will always come from our own ability to starve the beast.

Until next time
