The Three that are Four

The Three that are Four.

There is a subset of symbolism within esoteric circles like Freemasonry, Alchemy and Astrology. The three that are four.

 In Science, we see Chemistry inherit from its mother Alchemy, the three states (solid, liquid and gas) transformed by the fourth (energy). This immediately brings to mind the Mystic who equates this with the four elements (Earth, Water, Air and Fire).

 The Astrologer has this symbol doubly impressed upon its lore with four elements that divide the Zodiac into three groups and the three signs (Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable) which divide the Zodiac into four groups. Incidentally, in Astrology the three signs of Cardinal, Fixed and Mutable are called Quadruplicities while the four elements of Earth, Water, Air and Fire are called Triplicities. The three that are four.

 There is also the three positions of the Sun at Summer Solstice, Winter Solstice and Equinox. Spring and Vernal Equinox mark the same position of the Sun but make the positions four instead of the appearance of three.

 In Ancient Craft Masonry, there are several references to the three that are four. There are the three degrees that apparently included the fourth of Royal Arch. Symbolically, there are the three stations of East, West and South along with the fourth of North. There is the substitute word of the third degree that consist of three words but has a correct pronunciation of four syllables (sounding like the last name of Cosby show actress Lisa Bonet instead of the mispronounced sound of a dog’s treat). This correct pronunciation of course alludes to the Tetragrammaton which is mentioned below. 

This symbol has numerous Biblical references. The three who were in the furnace (Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego) who upon further inspection were actually four (with the addition of Daniel). The three nails used in the Crucifixion that created four holes in the Body of Christ.

 In Geometry, you have three vectors that when combined create a fourth vector. This is suggested in the symbol that Masons revere of “a point to a line, a line to a superficies and a superficies to a solid”. (Notice the four dimensions are connected by three movements.) Thus, a solid is a three-dimensional object but it has an implied fourth dimension (or original dimension) of timelessness. 

And of course, the Tetragrammaton. The four-letter word, as its name means, is actually composed of only 3 letters: Yod, He and Vau. The Hebrew meaning of Yod He Vau He turns out to be the equivalent of our English word of “being” in three states that allude to a fourth: “I was”, “I am” and “I will be”. These three states of being (past, present and future) refer to the fourth that suggests “timelessness” or “Eternity”.

 As Masons, our objective is the search for the Lost Word which is synonymous with the search for Truth. We eventually find that Truth within ourselves. The three that are four.

Prepare for the End of the World

John B Love, III

The stories of mythological lore are more than just interesting tales.  Religious stories often have a way of concealing astro phenomenon that reveal much to those learned in their meaning.  In other words the secrets of the heavens (or heavenly bodies) are indeed communicated.  

The stories were preserved and orally told to each generation to give them the knowledge of survival.  For example tales of Zeus (his Roman name Jupiter) are descriptive about the destructive and protective power of the Chief God.   Jupiter could be benevolent and protect his people or he show his wrath and send destruction.  

Looking at the size of Jupiter compared to the size of the earth in the picture below shows how, by it's shear size, comets and astroids could be blocked by the Chief Planet-thus saving humans on earth.  These massive fireballs of destruction could also enter into the inner planes of the solar system where the smaller planets revolve and rotate in a centrifical and centrifugal universal force, if the King of Planets decides to let them pass.  (Note to Masons:  these two forces operate at right angles with respect to one another.)

Comets hitting the Earth happen more frequently than one would think, which gives credence to how and why our ancestors knew of this danger and why they were so concerned.  On June 30th, 1908, 2000 square miles was blasted by a comet that landed on Earth in Tunguska, Siberia. Some can also remember the comet that hit Russia earlier this year (2013), because of the multiple videos of the comet entering the atmosphere recorded by Russian car dashboard cameras.  

Earth being protected from comets by Jupiter also happens frequently.  

In 1994 the Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 "woke the world up to the probability that large comet impacts are relatively regular occurrences, perhaps happening at frequencies measured in thousands, rather than millions of years." (Knight,Lomas pg 51)

And, "comets which have orbits in the same plane as the orbit of the major planets, including Earth, are much more likely to collide with us.  The great mass of Jupiter affects a comet in one of two ways.  It can divert the comet into a hyperbolic orbit, sending it off into space, or it can capture it into a tight elliptical orbit round the sun, making it a member of the Jupiter family of comets.  This is what was about to happen to Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, but its flight path was changed so abruptly that it was shattered to pieces under the strain." (Knight,Lomas pg 51)

"This event has shown us that it is possible for Jupiter to capture a comet, break it into fragmentsand  deflect those fragments onto a collision course with the Earth.  If a comet was diverted by Jupiter into a collision trajectory with the Earth, the maximum warning we would get would be about half an orbital period of a Jupiter family comet, which equates to between eighteen months and five years." (Knight,Lomas pg 51)

From the above quotes from the book Uriel's Machine by Christopher Knight & Robert Lomas published in 1999 by Century Books Limited, it's easy to see how the imagery of Zeus consists of him hurling lighting bolts to Earth.

Again, these stories (not just this one) have specific information coded for those who know, to plan and prepare for disasters.  It helped these initiates understand their world and prepare by seeking higher ground or building vast sea vessels because they were expecting a flood.  This then is truly why the ancients look to the stars and mapped out constellation and named planets. They understood the power of the Gods and how that power has affected life on Earth. The stories tell us not only of the history of comets hitting earth, landing in the  what covers most of the earth (water) and then flooding the planet; they also tell us of how to solve this problem.  The Book of Enoch is such a story.

In the Bible the story of Enoch is limited to his generations, his unique age of 365 years (not coincidently being the approximate amount of revolutions the earth makes while completing it's journey around the Sun), and his being taken up into the heavens by God. There is not a lot of information in the present Bible about Enoch.  The Biblical Enoch is part of a genealogy that starts with Adam and ends with Noah, the patriarch of the ark that survived the flood.

Adam
Cain
Enoch
Irad
Mehujael
Methusael
Lamech
Noah

The Book of Enoch, however, gives more information about Enoch and the coming flood.  

In addition to Biblical reference and other cultures with stories of a flood, there is also a Legend of Flood in Freemasonry dealing specifically with (you guessed it) Enoch.  The 13th & 14th degrees of the system known as the Scottish Rite provides these details.  However, the most famous Masonic legend of the flood is about Enoch's great-great grand son, Lamech because it is stated that the children of Lamech, specifically Jabal and Jubal by his wife Ada and Naamab and Tubal Cain begotten by his wife Zillah, knew of the coming of the flood and wrote their sciences that they had founded in (on) Two Pillars.  

Those sciences are Geometry (Jabal), Music (Jubal), Metallurgy (Tubal Cain) and Weaving (Naamab).  But how did Lamech's other kids know enough about the approaching flood in order to realize that they must preserve their sciences for the future of humankind?  The Bible just states that Noah knew about the flood.  The Book of Enoch tells us more.  (Incidentally other Masonic degrees deal with the finding of these Two Pillars that preserved the "sciences" and thus is said to advance Freemasonry.)

This same story found in Masonic legend about the flood pertaining to Enoch was also found in the ancient Hebrew text known as the Book of Enoch.  This book was lost around the second century AD but was found by an 18th century Freemason, James Bruce.  In 1762, Bruce traveled to North Africa to specifically study the Black Hebrews known as the Falasha Jews of Ethiopia and their links with the Knights Templar.  Lomas & Knight (pg. 37-38) report that Bruce "planned to visit Armenia (the supposed landing place of Noah's Ark) to observe a transit of Venus."  But because he lost his telescope, he instead headed up the Nile to Ethiopia.  After rediscovering the Book of Enoch among the Ethiopians, he translated and was honoured by the King of France and elected a "Fellow of the Royal Society" (of whose membership includes Robert Fludd, Issac Newton and Leonardo Da Vinci).

The Book of Enoch is mysterious to most Biblical scholars.  It has long been considered to by an apocalyptic text similar to how the Book of Revelations is viewed.  All though the book itself is long and has many cryptic messages, a synopsis of its key points follows.  

Enoch was very important to the Hebrew relegion.  Modern biblical research shows that their were two types of Hebrew religion: the Mosiac form that is present today (descended from Moses) and an Enochian form that has found its way into Masonic rituals (descended from Enoch).   (The Enochian form existed right up to the Roman destruction of the Temple.)  

The  Enochian form involved Venus symbolism because Venus forms "the most accurate calendar system known to observational astronomy."  (Knight & Lomas pg 104)  As it moves around the Sun with respect to Earth, Venus forms a pentagram in the sky with each side of the pentagram taking 8 years to complete.  Thus the 40 year circuit that Venus makes is a MORE accurate clock than anything man has created.

According to Knight & Lomas, "Venus is the most accurate indicator of the time of year available in the solar system.  Every eight years it marks a point when the solar calendar, the lunar calendar and the sidereal (position of the stars) calendar all coincide to within a few minutes.  Over five Venus cycles-i.e. every 40 years - it synchronizes these calendars to within a few seconds.  The eight year Venus cycle also accurately maps the moon's phases and its sidereal movements to within five hours." (Knight & Lomas pg 229)

"The sidereal calendar is important for agriculture, the lunar calendar is important to tell the tides, and the solar calendar is needed to know the length of the day and to recognize feast days." (Knight & Lomas pg 229)

A section of the Book of Enoch, called the "Book of Heavenly Luminaries" describes  specifically the patriarch Enoch being taken by the angel (or Watcher) Uriel north to a "room"  where Uriel showed him the sun rising and setting in portals (gates).  Uriel also showed the planets and stars rising and setting through this "machine".  (Mason's are familiar with the term gates-and should now have a new understanding of the term-because King Solomon's temple was also characterized by "gates".)

"The portals and windows described in a section of the Book of Enoch called the Book of the Heavenly Luminaries, are part of a description of how to build a sophisticated horizon declinometer for measuring the position of any bright object in the sky.  The device is calibrated using the known position of the sun by timing its rising and setting from the equinoxes which are easy to determine accurately."(Knight & Lomas pg 261)

Knight & Lomas actually built a Uriel's machine. It surprisingly easy to build.  For a description on how to build a Uriel's Machine see Knight and Lomas' book of the same name.

"As we built it and came to understand the celestial geometry used in its design, it was clear that it could be used as an highly accurate timing device."  (Knight & Lomas pg 261)

Knight & Lomas then find an Egyptian hieroglyphic that depicts the Uriel's Machine, complete with the rising Sun, Venus (five pointed star) and a craftsman in a position that every Fellowcraft Mason is familiar with.  That picture is also below.  It turns out that every stone circle on this planet (and there are a LOT of them) is at the very least a Uriel's machine, with the most famous being Stonehenge.

The final piece of the story in the Book of Enoch gives a warning about a comet  which based on the observation of its declination through Uriel's Machine, shows that was on a path to hit the Earth.  By standing in the center of the circular Uriel's Machine, an observer can look toward the eastern horizon before Sun rise like aiming down gun barrel sights to track the motion of celestial bodies.  The windows (portals, gates) of the machine will highlight the movement of the object as the celestial bodies change from window to window.  The celestial object's movement from the outward windows to the inner window serves as confirmation that it is on target with the path of Earth. Because a zero declination means it's headed straight for Earth.

When technology is brought to mind, the images usually aren't sticks and/or stones.  The definition of technology, however, does not give details of what the technology is made of.  This technology is simple to make and simple to use but is so advanced that it boggles the mind as to how it was conceived.

Basic Definitions for Understanding The Craft (SELF)

BODY-Pertains  to  the  physical  body  of  man.

INTUITION--That  which  is  “known”  without  the aid  of  any  of  the  senses or  usual  intellectual  processes.

MATERIAL-That  which  is  discernible  to  the  perception  by  one  or  more  of  the  senses.

PHYSICAL-Pertains  to  the  physical  body  of  man and  to  things  physical.

PHYSICAL  MAN-The  “animal  man”-the  animated  body  without  reference  to  the  “self  consciousness”  of  the  individual.

PSYCHICAL  MAN-The  physical  man  to  whom  has been  added  intellect  and  self  consciousness.

SELF-The  psychical  or  mental  man,  not  the  body, but  that  to  which  one  refers  when  he  says  “I.“’

SELF CONSCIOUSNESS-The  ability  to  be  conscious of  Self  as distinguished  from  mere  consciousness of  existence  or  simple  consciousness  as exhibited in  the  animal  kingdom.  Awareness  of  SOMETHING  within  oneself.  The  totality  of  conscious  states.

SOUL-The  Psyche.  Strictly  pertains  to  the  mental and  not  to  be  confused  with  “spirit,”  which  is NOT  SYNONYMOUS,  and  cannot  be  correctly used  interchangeably  with  “soul”  as  is  done  by orthodox  Christianity. 

SPIRIT-When  used  in  connection  with  man,  the immortal  “SOMETHING”  which  is  Life  itself.

SPIRIT-When  used  in  connection  with  Deity,  the same  “SOMETHING”  (which  is  as  close  to definition  as finite  mind  can  come).  When  used to  refer  to  a  state  or  plane  of  being,  that  state or  plane  of  existence  ABOVE  (not  directional, but  qualitative)  BOTH  the  physical  and  the psychical  planes.

SPIRITUAL  MAN-He  who  has  attained  “Cosmic Consciousness”, Spiritual  consciousness”  or the  “LOST  WORD”  whether  “within  or  without”  the  physical  body.

GOD----Mention  “God”  before  one  hundred  persons and  one  hundred  gods  that  instant  are  created. Each  one  hearing  the  word  immediately  interprets  it  according  to  his  CONCEPTION  OF GOD  and  each  such  concept  is  different.  To quote  from  that  great  source  of  wisdom,  the Bhavagad  Gita:  “Each  man’s  God-his conception  of  Deity-is  himself  at  his  best,  magnified  by  infinity.”  Used  here,  reluctantly,  for want  of  a  better  short  descriptive  word,  “God”
will  be  understood  to  mean  that  SUPREME, IMPERSONAL  INTELLIGENCE  which  we credit  with  being  the  directing  force  of  the  Universe.  In  Freemasonry  this  handicap  is partially overcome  for  us  by  the  descriptive  phrase: “SUPREME  ARCHITECT  OF  THE  UNIVERSE?  Analysis  of  the  words  “supreme”  and “architect”  in  their  full  implication  reveals  the comprehensiveness  of  this  description,  insofar  as the  finite  mind  can  attain  an  understanding  of the  Infinite.

Squaring the Circle the Easy Way!

Squaring the Circle has always been difficult for moderns to understand how the ancients achieved this problem using only Euclidian Geometry.  Because of the infinite nature of Pi, it has been said that it is impossible to Square the Circle.  This however is not true.  It’s easy to square the circle….by using a pyramid! Specifically the Great pyramid at Giza.

If you take the height of the pyramid as the radius of a circle that you inscribe upon the square base of the pyramid, you have then achieved the impossibility of Squaring the Circle with only Compasses, a Straightedge and ingenuity.  See how it’s done in the video below.

Sun of God, A Journey Through Time & Space

The only story ever told is the same story that’s always been told.  The story of the Sun of God through the 12 mansions.  The Gospel (Good News) is that it’s the story of the evolution of the soul of man.  This is why the story applies to so many Sun’s of God and not because the Devil went back in time to embarrass Jesus.
