Whose star is rising?
Strange and synchronous moments are like quarks that pulse in and out of the gauzy curtains of time. The latest case in point for me was today when I was reading TMQB, a lengthy column devoted to mostly football by the eclectic and somewhat eccentric Gregg Easterbrook. He knows his football shit and then some. So there I am, cruising through untidy factoids about Brett Favre and Randy Moss and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, he drops this:
Are You Descended from a Venusian?
” Venus is the planet most similar to Earth — about the same size as our world, made of similar elements. Closer to the sun, Venus has a surface temperature of around 900 degrees Fahrenheit, almost all its water has boiled off and a runaway greenhouse gas atmosphere causes atmospheric pressure 92 times greater than Earth’s. The planet appears to have no carbon cycle — no plants or geological processes subtract carbon dioxide from the air, as happens here — resulting in a very thick atmosphere. Natural global warming probably killed any Venus life that might have once existed.
Because of these things, cosmologists long have assumed Venus foretells what will happen to the Earth far into the future, when Sol expands before going supernova: Earth’s water will boil off, carbon dioxide will choke the atmosphere, life will end. That’s the distant future, hundreds of millions of years from now, by which time humanity will have either evolved into a higher form or gone extinct anyway.
But if Earth will become like Venus in the future, was Venus like Earth in the past? An eon ago, the sun was faint compared to today and the inner solar system less hot. Here, researchers speculate that a billion years ago, Venus had surface water, lower temperatures and less atmospheric pressure — the planet might have been habitable to the kind of life we know about. Reading this, I thought: What if there was civilization on Venus an ego ago, a civilization that either evolved into a higher form or fell extinct? A billion years later, there is no trace remaining.
Or perhaps far in the past, a civilization on Venus escaped the malfunctioning of its environment by seeding life here, the next planet outward from the sun. So far there’s no clue about how terrestrial life began. Darwinian evolution suggests how organisms that already exist form new species, but Darwin was silent on what created life. Microbes came into being nearly 4 billion years ago, but complex animal life appears to have begun relatively rapidly between 530 and 570 million years ago. Maybe that was the time a Venusian civilization was dying. Maybe we find no clues of the origin of complex biology here because this process began on Venus. Perhaps a billion years from now, thinking beings on a distant world will wonder how their biology became so complex, unaware it was transplanted from the long-dead Earth. “
Huh?
This is on ESPN. What’s strange, is that I was just blogging about this two posts ago, using the video from Easy Rider and Nicholson’s riff about Venus and how Venusians are right here amongst us. I noted that during the night Orson Welles unleashed, “The War Of The Worlds” on America, Saturn was in Aries (Mars) and now, as we approach Halloween, Saturn is in Libra, and here’s Easterbrook, taking the Scorpio Ray backwards through and ultimately to Venus. Venus, Scorpio, Retrograde begets columns on sports sites, revisiting our place of birth. Then there’s “The Event.”
Janet, my Jewish Mom in Minny was lamenting about how boring “The Event” is. I kinda agree. They spent most of the money on the effects for the first episode and Blair Underwood’s hair stylist, trying to give him a haircut that’s a cross between Spock and Obama. Harder than it sounds. But the aliens in The Event, led by Sophia (Wisdom/Baphomet) look just like us, except for a 1% diefference in DNA. Where did we see this before? Jack in “Easy Rider.”
“Event”: is derived from The Latin word, “Eventus,” meaning something that happened, taken place. Let’s play with the word a little bit; Eventus can be swapped around to look something like this “Evenust” or how about this; “Venuset” which becomes “Venus ET.” They are not just like us, they are even us.
And what is Venus? It’s the morning star. It’s Lucifer. And if, according to Easterbrook, we could actually have descended from Venus, what does that make us? Theoretically speaking? Now let’s have a look at Gregg Easterbrook’s name.
One would assume that it refers to a “brook” like a river in “the east.” Well “brook” is also derived from the word, “broch” which refers to stone towers in Scotland, which eventually becomes. “burgh” and “borough” which essentially means dwelling place. So now we have a different take on “Easterbrook” or “Eastern Burgh” or “Eastern Dwelling Place.” Like maybe an Eastern Star. Then, somehow somehow, I took a left turn at The Way Back Machine and did some rooting around. Where did I eventually land? On a page about “The Phoenix Project” where the name George Estabrooks jump out of my screen.
Estabrooks it appears is some sort of military researcher that was in some ways, the father of modern NLP. Which led to a piece about Michael Persinger, a cognitive neuro-science researcher that created a holo-deck for the mind called “The God Helmet” where apparently he can recreate the near death experience amongst other states of supposedly mystic or divine consciousness via tickling the temporal lobes. Now what’s really weird is that Gregg Easterbrook, was also going off about football helmets and safety in the same article that had the left field, drop/reference about Venus.
So what are we to make of all this? Quite frankly, the only thing that I can even remotely come to is that I stumbled into some strange sort of vector, a series of symbols and events that are staring us in the face more often than not.
Is Gregg Easterbrook part the plan? Is he a Venusian, consciously, or not? Are we all the progeny of some alien seed? Is this the missing link on the Darwinian curve and are they about to blow creationists out of the water with disclosure or will The Pope be happy to baptize them as our own? Mars is now in Sag. I feel a truth surge coming on.
Oh yeah, then there’s this.
