Palestinians gather to collect food cooked by volunteers in Rafah, one of the few areas where aid is possible – Mohammed Talatene /Avalon
The situation in Gaza is “apocalyptic”, aid agencies have said, with half of the population now starving and the cost of a bag of flour rising to $95 (£76) in parts.
I believe I met Mark Gall in 1998 when I was heavily involved in the book Holy Blood, Holy Grail. I belonged to several yahoo. Groups. Gall joined one of them, Rennes-Le-Hoax.. When The Davinci Code was published, Mark bragged to his friends he knew someone who was on to Dan Brown’s subject – years before. Then, Gall, distanced himself from me. Why? I wondered if he concluded I was a odd and deluded, nut, who would never be published. I told my daughter I could have published several books, but, I found fault in the original premise. And, my book kept getting bigger and bigger. My daughter said I was insane. I wondered if my best friend, thought the same. I told him his evangelical friends are caught up in a self-fulfilling prophecy – that will come true! I was right! This is the story – our story! The situation in Gaza has been described as apocalyptic. Does it have to be so?
Above is a photo of Mark Gall, hovering above suffering children. Does it matte if they are Jews, or Palestinian? Does Gall believe these children have to suffer because Hamas promised to wipe Israel off the face the earth? Does Hamas have atomic bombs’, tanks, and a mighty air force? No. Netanyahu knew Hamas was not going kill nine million Jews, because he was giving Hamas suitcases full of money, that allowed Netanyahu – to forget about the danger of Hamas?
Gini Thomas was close with Tim LaHaye who co-authored a book on Israel being targeted. Gini was with Trump on the Jan.6 Insurrection. Did she fill Trump in on her friends new book?
Mark is a graduate of Harvard, and was the head of the English Department of the University of Oregon. We may have gone fishing thirty times on the McKenzie. We talked about – our books – and my blog. Gall – was warned. He could have saved – Harvard! Dan Brown’s movie and book got the Jews much attention – and the Temple Mount!
A study has to be conducted on how Netanyahu benefited from Hamas being Israel’s Faux Threat. Did he reason if the threat was kept gong so the U.S. and other nations would not be sending aid to Israel? The Faux Bully&Victim Propaganda Plan – was in full swing. Israel had to remain the Perfect Victim, and….
As the conflicts in the Middle East grow in intensity, we cannot help but wonder what lies ahead for the nation of Israel and whether any of it means we are drawing closer to the last days.
In their exciting new book Target Israel, prophecy experts Tim LaHaye and Ed Hindson explain why Israel is at the center of God’s prophetic plan for the future. As you carefully review the Scriptures with them, you’ll learn about…
the miracle of Israel’s modern-day existence
Israel’s unique purpose in the world
the ways in which Israel serves as a super sign of the end times
the coming alliance of nations that will attempt to annihilate Israel
Christ’s return to Jerusalem to rule the world
You’ll be inspired as you see how God will bring all His prophetic promises to pass, and be encouraged to share your faith with greater urgency in light of Christ’s second coming.
“This text is her life’s work. Some believe the story uncovered by her research to be a hoax. If so, it would be the most elaborate hoax in the history of hoaxes.”
Zena Halpern and I exchanged e-mails. I do not recall the year. I believe it was around the time the rival biographer of my family stories, Tom Snyder, tried to get me to sign a non-disclosure agreement. Halpern also wanted me to sing a NDA, before she showed me some amazing information. I was leery, and did not sign any NDAs. At the time it looked like I was the next author due for a book on he Templar-Grail Magdalene subject matter. I believe Halpern wanted to be in my book. Now, she will be.
Yesterday, I discovered for the first time Halpern published a book on the Templars in regards to the Oak Island series. I was researching the fictional genealogy of Victoria Rosemond Bond, when a Templar name came up in regards to the Oak Island Mystery – that I recognized! Zena and Rick Lagina missed it! they failed to strike – pay dirt! I will contact Rick. I believe Zena and I found each other on one of the Templar-Magdalene groups. I started Rennes-le-Hoax because some of the research was questionable – and any conflicting information was being oppressed.
I have not read Halpern’s book. I am willing to read exerts of this book – on television! I will answer questions. They say “Truth is Stanger than fiction”. In this case “Fiction is stranger than the truth – when it becomes – the truth. I have been saying my book ‘The Royal Janitor’ is writing itself – and is coming true. What if Victoria Rosemond Bond, and Miriam Starfish Christling were Goddesses in their past life, and….they meet again! A Viking and Phoenician Goddess – meet on the High Sea! This meeting – rocks half the world! If they unite, they will be a threat to controlling men. They would be forced to created a man-god to walk the earth and out an end to this heavenly duo.
Here is the evidence that I was authoring a Grail Book, that established My Rose Line – years before Dan Brown came out with ‘The Da Vinci Code’. I sent some of this evidence to the Judge who oversaw the probate of my late sister, Christine Rosamond. Some letters may have been filed in the Supreme Court of Monterey. There is evidence my daughter’s mother, Patrice Hanson, wrote letters and sent e-mails while pretending to be my daughter, Heather Hanson. This is why Patrice favored Tom Snyder over me. I suspect her sister, Linda Comstock, and her attorney husband, were advising Patrice to get as close to the outside handler/caretakers of the Rosamond Legacy, surmising this is where the money is via the book and the movie – that Sydney Morris approved of, in regards to Stacey Pierrot. Heisinger, Morris, Rose, and Buck – backed a real loser!
“local conservatives made good on their promise Saturday, Aug. 10, to bring a contentious rally to downtown Eugene despite strong push-back and concerns the rally could turn violent. It appears the one person arrested may have been a rally supporter pretending to be Antifa.“
Above is a pic of me about to get on the EMX to go to Wayne Morse Square to take part in the God, Guns, and Liberty demonstration that was originally advertised as a rally for President Trump. Why was this changed? It appears a Trump supporter disguised himself as Antifa and there might have been a plan for him to attack the Three Percenters – who also said there would be Bible lessons at he rally. This is why I showed up, and so did Sarah Skochko. Because Trump and his supporters were ready to blame Antifa for the Insurrection and Riot that occurred later, I suspect local conservatives who backed the Three Percenters, were prepared to created a Propaganda Event, where it appears the Godless Left, and Antifa – ATTACKED GOD AND AMERICAN LIBERTY!
This constitutes Conspiracy – AND RACKETEERING – where this rally on August 11, 2019 was preparation by Trump and his backers to declare the Democrats stole the election – if they lost!.
I consider this a violation of my First Amendment Rights to Freedom of Religion and Speech, whereas a fake Religious Event and fake Second Amendment Rights gathering, was aimed at reelecting Trump. I am calling Governor Kotex to conduct a thorough investigation because it appears a planned Gay Pride celebration was going to be covertly employed to make it appear LGBTQ people are against God and Guns. I see Roger Stone having a hand in this.
President Joe Biden – is not the Fake President of the United States! The Three Percenters and Oath Keepers are Fake Patriots – that Trump is promising to pardon if he get reelected! Eugene Oregon – was targeted because it is a Liberal City, and thus does not deserve God’s Truth – or any truth!

“Howard’s online presence indicates he is a Trump supporter, but he was dressed like Antifa during the rally. Sometimes referred to as using “black-bloc” tactics, Antifa typically dresses in all black and will cover their faces with scarves, hoods and sunglasses. After the event, rally organizer Andrew Allwander referenced Antifa violence, and claimed online that Antifa had tried to punch rally-goers, seemingly referring to Howard.
Sarah Skochko, of the Unitarian Universalist Church said she was there to express her beliefs.
“This is an act of faith. The fascists wanted to bring God into it, and so the God contingent is showing up. And I just find it really interesting that people make gods of their own imagining, and they just happen to look like themselves.”
How Pro-Trump Forces Pushed a Lie About Antifa at the Capitol Riot
On social media, on cable networks and even in the halls of Congress, supporters of Donald J. Trump tried to rewrite history in real time, pushing the fiction that left-wing agitators were to blame for the violence on Jan. 6.
At 1:51 p.m. on Jan. 6, a right-wing radio host named Michael D. Brown wrote on Twitter that rioters had breached the United States Capitol — and immediately speculated about who was really to blame. “Antifa or BLM or other insurgents could be doing it disguised as Trump supporters,” Mr. Brown wrote, using shorthand for Black Lives Matter. “Come on, man, have you never heard of psyops?”
Only 13,000 people follow Mr. Brown on Twitter, but his tweet caught the attention of another conservative pundit: Todd Herman, who was guest-hosting Rush Limbaugh’s national radio program. Minutes later, he repeated Mr. Brown’s baseless claim to Mr. Limbaugh’s throngs of listeners: “It’s probably not Trump supporters who would do that. Antifa, BLM, that’s what theydo. Right?”
What happened over the next 12 hours illustrated the speed and the scale of a right-wing disinformation machine primed to seize on a lie that served its political interests and quickly spread it as truth to a receptive audience. The weekslong fiction about a stolen election that President Donald J. Trump pushed to his millions of supporters had set the stage for a new and equally false iteration: that left-wing agitators were responsible for the attack on the Capitol.
In fact, the rioters breaking into the citadel of American democracy that day were acolytes of Mr. Trump, intent on stopping Congress from certifying his electoral defeat. Subsequent arrests and investigations have found no evidence that people who identify with antifa, a loose collective of antifascist activists, were involved in the insurrection.
local conservatives made good on their promise Saturday, Aug. 10, to bring a contentious rally to downtown Eugene despite strong push-back and concerns the rally could turn violent. It appears the one person arrested may have been a rally supporter pretending to be Antifa.
The so-called “God, Guns and Liberty” rally (formerly “God, Guns and Trump”) drew approximately 50 to 60 right-wing supporters while also bringing out around 250 to 300 counter-protesters and many more spectators from Saturday Market. Many rally-goers came armed, with some carrying AR-15 style assault rifles and wearing tactical gear.
The day started like any other summer Saturday in Eugene, with Saturday Market and Farmers Market attendees going about their business. Counter-protesters began assembling shortly before noon and by 1 pm God, Guns and Liberty rally-goers were on-scene.
Before long, tensions flared. One of the day’s early scuffles occurred as rally-goers entered the Wayne Morse Free Speech Plaza. Other minor scuffles broke out throughout the day, most of which the Eugene Police Department (EPD) did not respond to. Capt. Erik Klinko said at a later press conference that no one came forward at the time claiming to be the victim of an assault, though that could change later.
EPD had a contingent of riot police on hand inside the Lane County building, but those officers were never called upon. According to an EPD press release, Springfield police and Lane County Sheriff’s officers were also on hand to ensure EPD could police the rally and nearby events.
The rally was originally planned to take place for two hours in the plaza, but after less than 15 minutes, the groups moved out to 8th Avenue. EPD responded by closing off 8th between Pearl Street and Oak Street. During the rest of the event, rally-goers were mostly hemmed-in on the sidewalk just outside the plaza, with counter-protesters chanting slogans like “Go home Nazi scum,” “No hate, no fear, immigrants are welcome here” and “No Trump, no KKK, no fascist USA,” which have been common at other counter protests.
The lone arrest came about halfway through the rally. Brandon Alan Howard, 33, who goes by “Brian Fife” on Facebook was arrested by EPD and charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct after he was witnessed harassing counter-protesters. EPD said in a press release that Howard was found to have a wrench taped to his arm.
Howard’s online presence indicates he is a Trump supporter, but he was dressed like Antifa during the rally. Sometimes referred to as using “black-bloc” tactics, Antifa typically dresses in all black and will cover their faces with scarves, hoods and sunglasses. After the event, rally organizer Andrew Allwander referenced Antifa violence, and claimed online that Antifa had tried to punch rally-goers, seemingly referring to Howard.
Allwander also claims Howard harassed rally-goers. Eugene Weekly, however, witnessed Howard mingling peaceably amongst the group, even partially removing his mask when talking to some of them. When EW asked about the conversation, rally-goers responded only that Howard was “undercover.”
The event was mostly peaceful, and several counter-protesters worked to lighten tensions in more unconventional ways, such as one man dancing near the rally-goers while wearing only a thong — an act many found amusing.
Sarah Skochko, of the Unitarian Universalist Church said she was there to express her beliefs.
“This is an act of faith. The fascists wanted to bring God into it, and so the God contingent is showing up. And I just find it really interesting that people make gods of their own imagining, and they just happen to look like themselves.
“Our faith as Unitarian Universalists calls us to show up in the name of justice and in the name of peace.”
Jason Marks, 54, of Lane County said he was at the rally to show support for the Second Amendment and didn’t see being armed with an AR-15 style rifle at the rally as intimidating. When asked if he supports Donald Trump’s presidency, he said only that he voted for him and he supports the office of the presidency no matter who holds the position. He added he has some reservations about Trump.
City Councilor Emily Semple, who was among the counter-protesters as a private citizen and not as a representative of the city said that, while not ideal, she was happy the rally went off mostly peacefully. She said she was there partly to see what was happening but also to stand up with the people she supports. When asked if she thought the event was a success as far as remaining mostly peaceful, she said she did.
Semple said, “I think on a lot of levels it was good — expression of free speech and it got this community of activists off their couch and to interact again.”
EUGENE, Oregon (CNN) — The God, Guns and Liberty group held a pro-gun rally Saturday, one week to the day 22 people were shot and killed in a mass shooting in El Paso.
Tim LaHaye is a founding father of the Heritage Foundation and close friend of Ginni Thomas, a ruling member, whose silent influence is dictating – and telling the hand and game Trump is playing – because they taught him the game! They made a big mistake to Start The Game in the Republican Party they turned into their church – because John Fremont and his kin is here! I KNOW THE GAME! Trump does not. He’s being instructed WHAT TO DO. The FBI raid has proven this. It’s like Texas Hold Em. The wagering can and does reveal what two cards you are holding.
The Letter of the Fifty – looms large. That CHEATING AT CARDS is condoned, means – they are playing with their own deck – by their hidden rules. Every hand of cards – ENDS – as does every card game! For this reason I avoided reading Revelations – more than I have to. If you are dealt a hand in the End Time, you are A PLAYER. You are creeping towards the LIFE BOATS that will only hold so many people. The Republicans in the LAST ELECTION remind me of folks in the movie 2012. The ARMED FBI are waiting at the end of the tunnel – TO THE ARKS! They have to be – there1
“Republicans are behaving with gross irresponsibility: from talk show hosts urging violence that seems all-too-possible after the events of Jan. 6, 2021, to Sen. Rick Scott (R-FA) and former Trump strategist Stephen K. Bannon comparing the FBI to the Gestapo, to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) declaring the Justice Department in ‘an intolerable state of weaponized politicization.’ This rhetoric is disturbing and dangerous — not to mention hypocritical. In fact, it is Mr. Trump’s administration and acolytes who sought to weaponize the Justice Department, and it is they who today are attempting to turn what to all appearances is a legitimate inquiry into a political circus.”
Target Israel: Caught in the Crosshairs of the End Times

The article focuses on the cultural and political implication of the recent publishing sensation from two fundamentalist Christian ministers-turned-writers: Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins. Their sixteen-book Left Behind Series (1995-2007) has by now sold close to eighty million copies, crossing over from the evangelical margins to the bookseller’s mainstream. Focusing by and large on the first novel in the series, the article analyzes its narrative and political logic in the context of the rise of apocalyptic imagery in American culture and public life.
Yesterday I posted on Tim Wallace-Murphy’s facebook a photograph of my good friend, Ed, whose mother was a Wallace kin to the Cavanagh’s. Both families were members of the Plymouth Brethren in Dublin. I have been corresponding with Ed’s brother, Randall, who sent me a portion of his family genealogy. He just moved and is looking for the letters that go with that speak of the Brethren from which a huge Biblical prophecy has arisen, and generated millions of books authored by Tim LaHaye that have given rise to a righteous Army that has taken over the Republican Party whose candidate for President is a Mormon, who are baptizing the dead and splicing them to their massive genealogy!
Meanwhile, back in Merry Ol England, men in hats are tinkering about Rosslyn Chapel unearthing claims that there are Rex Deus families kin to Jesus, who are drastically directing the course of humanity – in a covert manner? Why covert? Why not overt, like the Rapture Ready Evangelicals that backed Rick Santorum, and Rick Perry, and who are claiming Mitt Romney is a member of a cult that invented a Jesus alien to true Christians. One can say, Dan Brown, and Tim Wallace-Murphy have invented an alien Jesus, and have given rise to a cult that is – not covertly, or overtly, running any candidates for public office, which makes me wonder. Where are the demcratic candidates of the Priory de Zion?
The last time I looked, Europe is not being ruled by Royalty, kings and queens, which makes it near impossible for the Rex Deus to rise to power – and rule the world in the name of Jesus! Only in America is this a real threat that rears its ugly head in the evangelical War On Women, and thus a war on the bloodline of Mary Magdalene – if you are a believer, or a follower, of Tim Wallace-Murphy, and not, Tim LaHaye.
What I suggest is an alliance between Tim Wallace-Murphy and myself, a Hands Across the Water, in order to defeat our foes who are cleary against everything we Liberals stand for, and given a chance, they will burn our books, and expunge our studies from the world wide web.
I will not publish the Cavenaugh-Wallace genealogy, as yet! I await to hear from Tim, who claims there are Masonic families running the show. Well, my famous sister married into the Benton family, the foremost Masonic family in America – if not the world! A Benton saved Albert Pike’s library, and thus, Scottish Rite Freemasonry that I have linked to Saphardic Royalty living in South Carolina.
As fate would have it, Ed, married a Jew whose surname is a form of Cohen, thus, Ed’s three sons may be entitled to be priests in the new temple the Evangelical Rapture Ready say must be built before Jesus will return. If none of this true, or real, then we are looking at a profound self-fulfilling prophecy that threatens how secular ways make the world go round. In this respect, the two Tims are in the same boat, each manning their own oar, and propelling us towards…………the brink!
Ed and his family are highly educated agnostics. Ed went to Harvard, as did our close friend, Mark Gall, who authored many books on how to educate educators, but, does not believe in God. I was put in charge of taking Mark’s mother to Synagogue.
When Jack Keuroac came to speak at Harvard, Ed was put in charge of this famous Beat Writer. The next day Jack and Ed came on stage – toasted! Jack told the audience Ed would speak for him this day, because;
“He knows me better then I know myself!”
Two of the photos above were taken at a firing range where we shot Tommy Guns. Mark Gall is beholding our eccentric friend who may be kin to Tim Wallace-Murphy. We are in Springfield, home of the Simsons, a Rex Deus family?

“The picture that was emerging was of a group of European noble families, descended from the Jewish lines of David and Aaron, who had escaped from Jerusalem shortly before, or possibly even just after, the fall of the Temple. They had passed down the knowledge of the artifacts concealed beneath the Temple to a chosen son (not necessarily the eldest) of each family. Some of the families involved were the Counts of Champagne, Lords of Gisors, Lords of Payen, Counts of Fontaine, Counts of Anjou, de Bouillon, St Clairs of Roslin, Brienne, Joinville, Chaumont, St Clair de Gisor, St Clair de Neg and the Hapsburgs.”

“Approximately every 80 years, a faint 10th magnitude star in the constellation of Corona Borealis dramatically increases its brightness.

My ex-friend, Mark Gall finally came out and gave me a critique of my blog, and said I began “acting odd” For years, he and his friends went along with my study – that Dan Brown -ripped! Being kin to a fictional Jesus was just fine – as long as there were millions to be had from fictional, books and movies! I was allowed to become a millionaire, but, not allowed to suggest I am – THE REAL MESSIAH, or a REAL CANDIDATE FOR THE – Real Crowned Savior-King!
For thirty years Gall and I argued about the Zionists of Israel. He called me a “Nazi”.

Approximately every 80 years, a faint 10th magnitude star in the constellation of Corona Borealis dramatically increases its brightness. This star, T CrB, is known as a recurrent nova and last flared in 1946, peaking at magnitude 2.0, temporarily making it one of the 50 brightest stars in the night sky.
Aside from the 1946 eruption, the only other confirmed observation of this star’s outburst was in 1866. But new research published on the arXiv preprint server by Dr. Bradley Schaefer suggests that a medieval monk may have spied T CrB brightening in 1217.
In medieval monasteries, monks would regularly keep chronicles—a list of notable events that happened throughout the year. In 1217, the abbot of Ursberg Abbey (in southern Germany, west of Augsberg) was Burchard. In the chronicle for that year, he wrote:
“In the autumn season of [1217], in the early evening, a wonderful sign was seen in a certain star in the west. This star was located a little west of south, in what astrologers call Ariadne’s Crown [Corona Borealis]. As we ourselves have observed, it was originally a faint star that, for a time, shone with great light, and then returned to its original faintness. There was also a very bright ray reaching up the sky, like a large tall beam. This was seen for many days that autumn.”
But was this “wonderful sign” a nova, or one of many other types of transient events that could grace the night sky?
Schaefer first rules out the possibility that the event could have been a supernova, as any supernova visible to the naked eye and that recent would leave an easily detectable remnant. For example, the remnant associated with a supernova in 1054 is the Crab Nebula, easily visible with even small telescopes.
Several older supernovae also have remnants associated with them (although sometimes the identification is uncertain, as the historical record was not sufficiently precise on the location in the sky of the object). Since no such remnant is found in this region of the sky, Schaefer concludes that the eruption must not have been particularly destructive.
Similarly, Schaefer deems a supernova unlikely, as such an event would have been visible for several weeks. However, Burchard describes it as only being visible for “many days” which is more in line with T CrB’s average visibility of about seven days.
A 2º field of stars centered on T CrB, showing the inherent uncertainty in the coordinates of the star given as well as the likely star arch and distance from ? CrB which identifies HD 143707 as the likely candidate for Herschel’s star and T CrB as the better candidate for Wollaston’s. From Schaefer’s paper. Credit: arXiv (2023). DOI: 10.48550/arxiv.2308.13668
But was the observation a misidentification of a bright planet? Also impossible, as Corona Borealis is 45º away from the ecliptic and no naked-eye planet strays that far from this plane of the solar system.
Perhaps a comet? This hypothesis has some merit, as comets are more frequent than such novae. Another chronicle from Saint Stephani monastery describes a possible comet in the same year, but does not give any indication as to what season or where in the sky.
Even the notion that this other chronicle did describe a comet is in doubt, as the terminology used is vague. The author described it as a “stella comes” where “comes” is generally used as a title for a Count, although there is another instance in the same chronicle where the same phrase is used to describe another transient event in 1208, associating it with an ill omen. Rather, comets were generally described as a “tailed star,” “torch-like star,” or a “star of death.” Thus, the language used is ambiguous at best.
Another argument against the cometary hypothesis is the association of a positive omen with this star’s appearance. Historically, comets were taken as negative omens, associated with death and the fall of kingdoms.
Schaefer also discusses a possible sighting of T CrB in 1787. This potential sighting comes from a catalog of stars published in 1789 by the English astronomer Francis Wollaston. In it, Wollaston lists a star near the coordinates for T CrB. While he doesn’t specify a magnitude, the catalog has a limiting magnitude of 7.8—meaning that, if the star was indeed T CrB, it must have been observed during an eruption.
Could Wollaston have made an error? Possibly, but unlikely, Schaefer concludes. Wollaston did incorrectly identify the star as one from a catalog by William Herschel: V 75. However, Herschel described this star as being part of an arc of three stars and 1º from T CrB. This description does not match well with Wollaston’s coordinates and most likely describes the star HD 143707. Indeed, there are no other stars of a similar magnitude within the error range described by Wollston.
Again, Schaefer considers and discounts other possibilities. He rejects a comet as unlikely, as Wollaston was a trained observer who was familiar with comets. Asteroids so far from the ecliptic could never be so bright. A recent supernova would remain a bright X-ray source to this day. An error in the measurement of another star giving such precise coordinates for the location for T CrB Schaefer estimates at approximately 8.5 in 10 million. Faced with no viable alternative, Schaefer concludes that Wollaston likely caught T CrB at the end of an eruption, recorded its position accurately, and misidentified it as star V 75 from Herschel’s catalog.
As for the next eruption of T CrB, the star recently began dropping in brightness, which was observed to happen in 1945 approximately eight months prior to its eruption. If this behavior repeats itself again, Schaefer predicts the star should brighten again in the early spring of 2024, becoming the brightest nova since CP Puppis erupted in 1942.
“People come into your being and take, take, take! You are powerless to stop them. I don’t know why.”
In 1970 there were two very beautiful women in my life, Christine Rosamond Benton, and Rena Easton. They came into my being, and took. I did not want to stop them if I could. I could not, because the Avatar was working directly with them. I was just the Messenger – of course! When you die, and come back, you are an Angel. Rena almost figured that out on Christmas Day. Her card was dropping little green stars upon her words.
I was born October 8, 1946 two minutes after the sun set. An amazing star-shower was suddenly visible. The nurses in the maternity ward bid my mother to come to the window and look, but, was too spent having just delivered me.
Rosemary said she had a vision while she was giving birth to me, she telling herself she must not forget it. She forgot.
Rosemary named me after John the Baptist because she believed I was born on the Day of Atonement, Yom Kippur. I was born three days after Yom Kippur.
When my Astrologer began her five hour (recorded) reading of my chart, she began with these words;
“Jon, I have never seen a chart like yours, never knew it was possible. It begins where all charts in theory begin, on the exact cusp of Pisces and Aries.. For this reason I had to move up the time of your birth ten minutes, or in theory, you were not born. As it is now, you barely escaped becoming a veritable prisoner in this lifetime, that is, all the information you came here to share.”
I believe I was born to die, and when I did, my clock was readjusted so my information could be set free. My astrologer said I am of the great Scorpion Scholars of the Biblical Wilderness who sting themselves in order to induce a near-death experience and behold the Creator, if only for a little while.
The large painting I did of Rena had her standing on a grassy hill after the sun had set and the evening sky was a rainbow with stars coming out in the thalo blue. There was a crescent moon cradling a star. Rena was wearing a thalo blue cape the color of Carla Bruni’s sweater. I painted stars along the edge. For two months I have been thinking of posting this photo, for the entity I saw was wearing a thalo blue robe and had jet black hair filled with tiny stars like diamonds.
My freed information needed the imput of female information. When our hands touched in the total darkness an amazing download began. It was and electrical experience.
Rena and I spent six weeks together. We never listened to a radio, watched TV.. or went to a movie. We had no friends. We had no electricity, and lived by candlelight. But what we did every night on our mountain top, was watch the sunset, and the gods paint the sky with stars. And then we went to be bed, and in each other’s arms we dreamt a dream of long ago. And we go wherever the stars took us that night.

The October Draconids, in the past also unofficially known as the Giacobinids, are a meteor shower whose parent body is the periodic comet 21P/Giacobini-Zinner. Almost all meteors which fall towards Earth ablate long before reaching its surface. The Draconids are best viewed after sunset in an area with a clear dark sky. The 1933[1][2] and 1946[2] Draconids had Zenithal Hourly Rates of thousands of meteors visible per hour, among the most impressive meteor storms of the 20th century. Rare outbursts in activity can occur when the Earth travels through a denser part of the cometary debris stream; for example, in 1998, rates suddenly spiked[3][4] and spiked again (less spectacularly) in 2005.[5] A Draconid meteor outburst occurred[6] as expected[7][8][9] on 2011 October 8, though a waxing gibbous Moon reduced the number of meteors observed visually. During the 2012 shower radar observations detected up to 1000 meteors per hour. The 2012 outburst may have been caused by the narrow trail of dust and debris left behind by the parent comet in 1959.[10]
The Draconids get their name from the constellation Draco, the Dragon.
In 1933 and 1946, the Draconid outbursts were major – observers reported an astounding rate of 20,000 shooting stars an hour. An Irish astronomer described the 1933 episode like a flurry of snowflakes.
Opinions are like assholes. Everyone’s got one. But, sometimes a man must walk alone. Jesus carried his cross all alone, for a little while, after being thoroughly shamed and humiliated. But, someone stepped in and gave him a hand.
The biggest complaint I am reading from the followers of the Three Percenters, is there was not enough REAL Jesus talk. I only found out I am highly qualified to be a LEADER of the Three Percenters, if, I can only get my loyalties straight. I thought real Patriots fought King George and his need for his subjects to be loyal to him?
I own thirty-two years of sobriety. Here is what it says on our birthday coins;
“Unto thyself be true!”
I’m going to make The King’s Walk in Springfield an annual event. Bring your crown.
