In the Beginning
After God had created heaven and earth, after He had created the fish, the fowl, and all other life, God said, Let us make man in our image (Gen 1:26), and He gave man dominion over all other life.
When Moses asked God to tell him what to tell his people his name was, God said to tell them I AM THAT I AM. Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you (Ex 3:14).
I AM went on to say I AM is forever, and this is my memorial unto all generations. I take this to mean God was repeating that He made man in his immaterial image. We are not here because we are here. God gave man an animating principle and an actuating cause of human existence.
In view of the confusion, Nietzsche wondered whether man made God in man’s image, or whether God made man in His image, and concluded that we each make god in our own image. He gets credit for the God is dead theory. Why? Heaven forbid that I should tell you or anyone who you should be. Why should government tell we the people who we are and what we should do? When all is said and done, isn’t that what the Tea Party is about?
Our Constitution, as distinguished from government’s interpretation, has a biblical origin—not a religious origin, mind you. Religion is mentioned only three times in the Bible. Religion is responsible for telling God’s people to do terrible things. Our Constitution was ordained by we the people. It is in ours and God’s hands, not government’s corrupt hands. Governments, like religions, tell people to do terrible things. This caused Aristotle to say, “even the best of men in authority are liable to corrupted by passion. We may conclude then that the law is reason with passion and it is therefore preferable to any individual.” America is a nation of laws, not of men.
Background of the New Age
Moses led his people out of bondage, in search of a promised land. When we take the Bible in its overall context, the promised land was figuratively speaking. Jesus, in The New Testament, beginning with The Gospel According to St. Matthew, telling us of what Jesus preached, we read that Jesus gave us a choice. Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction and many there be which go in thereat (Mt 7:13). . . Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are raving wolves (Mt. 7:15).
The Bible, man’s moral story is full of “holy wars.” We are still at it. Jesus preached our true purpose. This brings into pay the jolly green giant movement. What is its true purpose? Is it yet another political ploy whose objective is control? Jesus said, Be not ye therefore like unto them (Mt. 6:8) . . . Thy kingdom come (Mt. 6:10). Jesus is referring to your future, after death. He goes on to say, Thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven—that is, God’s people’s will here on earth. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all (Isa 53:6). He was oppressed, and he was afflicted (Isa 53:7). Be not like them who do battle: be like Jesus. Live together in peace. Bring the troops home.
The New Age God
In earth as it is in heaven, from The Physics of Consciousness, under “A God for Tomorrow,”
I am He who exists from the Undivided . . .It is I who am the light . . .I am the All. Everything come from Me and Everything extends unto Me—The Gospel of Thomas,
In the Gospel According to St. Matthew, in Chapter 2, on the visit of the Magi, the three astrologers from Persia who followed to the Star of Bethlehem to the birth place of the Christ child, we read that in the land of Juda would come a governor that would rule the people. When King Herod heard of the Christ child, he was troubled, and all of Jerusalem with him.
When Joseph and Mary got word that Herod was looking for the Christ child so he could destroy him, they, with the Christ child, fled to Egypt. When Herod was reported dead, they returned to Israel. When Jesus started preaching, it was repent for the kingdom of heaven is at hand, or in earth as it is in heaven. In his Sermon on the Mount, Jesus began with, Blessed are the poor in spirit for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. . . Therefore when thou doest thine alms do not sound a trumpet before thee, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets (Mt. 6:2). And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom, the power, and the glory for ever. Amen (Mt 6:13).
I am He who exists from the Undivided; that is, from the universal state of consciousness. In “A God for Tomorrow,” quantum physicist Even Harris Walker; “But it has only been with the advent of quantum theory that we have discovered proof that we exist as something more than pieces of matter. In the development of quantum theory, the observer emerges as a co-equal in the foundry of creation. . . The observer interacts with matter. Consciousness, the substance of this newfound reality that defines the observer, has fundamental existence. It is the quantum mind (or the soul) that is the basic reality.”
I and my soul came to this life with my star, the sun, rising in the east. Astrologers give me Aquarius rising. It means that as I grow older I become more my rising sign. (My sun sign at birth was Virgo.) H. G. Wells, who wrote about the future, was Virgo with Aquarius rising. In The Rising Sign, under “Aquarius Rising,” Jeanne Avery: “He becomes the water-bearer by walking to the beat of a different drummer. He may be the person to bring back information that has been lost to civilization for centuries. The person with Aquarius on the rise can be very avant-garde. He is a forerunner in setting style, discovering new methods, and showing the rest of humanity the way. . . He is a chance taker. He is willing to let go of the trunk of the tree to walk out on the edge of a limb. He knows where the fruit grows and where the spotlight can hit. He is not one to hide his light under a bushel. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house (Mt.5:15) Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles (Mt. 7:16)
Jesus departed leaving the promise that he would return. He didn’t say when. We are entering the Age of Aquarius. It is all just too coincidental to call it coincidence. The Magi followed the Star of Bethlehem to the birth of the Christ-child. Jesus was born at the beginning of the Age of Pisces.
Astrologer’s Handbook, under Pisces—“They desperately want to do the right thing, but as a rule they do not have strong willpower. Therefore, they are easily influenced by external factors. . . They are not combative. Their aversion to struggle often makes them indecisive in thinking and acting. They will generally suffer injury rather than fight for their rights.” Jesus: Verily I say unto thee; That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice, thus, the idea of peace at any price. Jesus spoke of wolves in sheep’s clothing, the perfect dependency match: Pisceans, whose symbol is two attached fish swimming in opposite directions.
Astrologer’s Handbook, under Aquarius—“Individuals born under the sign of brotherhood and fraternity have as their symbol the water-bearer, who spills out to mankind the life-force and spiritual energy.” This sounds like Jesus’ second coming.
Speaking of Aquarians, “They sometimes feel that those who are listening to them are unreceptive and incapable of comprehending their ideas, and they tend to become annoyed when people fail to understand them. Then Aquarians argue, and when they do, they stir us opposition from others.” This sounds like The Tea Party, and in earth as it is in heaven. Astrologer’s Handbook was published in 1973.
James Redfield authored The Celestine Prophecy. From astrologer James Redfield’s audio tape to me in 1983, “We are going to take a look at two key aspects of your astrological data, your Sun sign and your Moon sign. “We are going to talk about them archetypically. The emotional issue is pointed out by your Moon sign—how this feels as you go through life—talk about your Sun sign—again archetypically—how you naturally uplift people, to give you some good information as you try to find out what your spiritual mission is.”
“We have a new image of what it means to be a human being, how to think of ourselves as growing, evaluating, understanding, that we can connect with our God‑self energy. You grow in a Virgo way. Virgo is that part of us that is oriented toward conscientious work. At first unconsciously—and everyone has a different way of reacting—the object is to bring into consciousness the reactions and determine whether or not the reaction is mature or immature—when we can step back and look at our higher self, when need becomes strength.”
Speaking of the archetypical, philosopher and cultural historian Richard Tarnas, author of The Passion of the Western Mind and Cosmos and Psyche, in keeping with in earth as it is in heaven, demonstrates the existence of an astonishingly consistent correspondence between planetary alignments and the archetypal patterns of human history.
It is interesting to note that in Cosmos and Psyche, under “World Wars, Cold War, and September 11,” Tarnas reports that in November 2008 Saturn went into unfavorable alignment with Pluto. It meant a sense of epochal closure, “the destruction of an earlier mode of life that in retrospect may seem to have been marked by widespread indulgence, decadence, naiveté, denial, and inflation.” Cosmos and Psyche was published in 2007. President Obama was elected in November 2008.
Behold, we now have the Tea Party—we Nazis, racists, and crazies—how do Nancy Pelosi, the environmentalists and animal lovers know that there are not infinite universes and infinite purposes; know that purpose itself is not infinite? Too bad, so sad. . . give a little sigh and let us get on with it. Yep, The Tea Party is here to stay. The Mayan calendar says this world ends on December 21, 2012. Man cannot fight the movements of the universe. On earth as it is in heaven, much to the trepidation, agitation, and chagrin of the out-of-touch, downright ridiculous status quo, the Tea Party is helping usher in the new Age of Aquarius. The Tea Party is far more than you think. Why do you think there have been millions of UFO sightings? They are the welcoming committee. We are at the threshold of becoming part of the galactic community.
