<span style="color: #141823; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;">Let's get one thing straight, we are NOT a religion, but we use "religion" as merely a veil. We are the hidden Church, the occult Church and have been around since a long time before any religion was ever invented to control the people. We don't have or want a congregation, we don't want you to join us to build our numbers. We don't want you to go through <a href="http://churchsmsj.org/wiki/doku.php?id=organisations:church#structure_and_spiritual_titles" target="_blank">Holy Orders</a> in our <a href="http://churchsmsj.org/" target="_blank">Church</a>. We don't want to pass our secrets to the profane, to outsiders, to those who only want to serve</span><span class="text_exposed_show" style="color: #141823; display: inline; font-family: "helvetica" , "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19.32px;"> and fuel the current system. Those who do manage to join us, do so because it is their calling to work on themselves. To know who they really are and why they are here. And they don't do that because anyone forces them to, and it isn't an easy thing to do, they do it because their <a href="http://gnostictau.org/" target="_blank">Higher Self</a> is driving them forwards towards their true WILL and potential. Things will come up to prevent them doing this work, this <a href="http://churchsmsj.org/wiki/doku.php?id=organisations:church" target="_blank">Great Work</a>, but the strong will go forwards towards their goal no matter what. That is what sorts the spiritual royalty from the slaves, and always has... and the spiritual royalty will rule over their own kingdom and the slaves shall serve. TRIWENS Amen.</span></div>

<b>1. Bonobo</b><br />
<b></b><br />
<b></b>
Bonobos, whose closest genetic cousin is, surprisingly, the human race, live in a society surprisingly dominated by females, who use gal-pal alliances to exert power. While some critics still dismiss the bonobo matriarchy as a fluke or feminist delusion, others counter with theory and evidence that show how female bonding works to control individual males despite the males' slightly larger size. Unlike abused loner chimp females, it's likely that the bonobo gal gang prevents males from killing the babies of rival males (as other apes do) and allows females to choose their own mates and grab the best food. In the wild, females also hunt and distribute meat, once considered exclusively a male preserve.<br />

<b>2. Elephants</b></div>
<div>
<b></b><br />
<b></b></div>
<div>
Elephants form deep family bonds and live in tight matriarchal family groups of related females called a herd. The herd is led by the oldest and often largest female in the herd, called a matriarch. Herds consist of 8-100 individuals depending on terrain and family size. When a calf is born, it is raised and protected by the whole matriarchal herd. Males leave the family unit between the ages of 12-15 and may lead solitary lives or live temporarily with other males.</div>

<b>3. Bees</b></div>
<div>
<b></b><br />
<b></b></div>
The social structure of a bee hive is that of a matriarchal family headed by a queen. The queen has a potential life span of three years and during this time may continually lay eggs thereby establishing and maintaining a total colony population of approximately twenty five thousand bees. Almost 95% of the queens offspring are what are referred to as worker bees, with the remaining 5% developing into drones. Bee's have always been associated with the Goddess, The Anatolian Goddess is often shown wearing a beehive as a tiara, most frequently at Hacilar. Of all the insects represented in the ancient world, bees are foremost in ritual and symbolic meaning. The Goddess's tiara announces her status as a queen bee and suggests that she streams with honey, a much-revered substance in ancient times.</div>

<b>5. Lions</b></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Lions live in a matriarchal society. The lionesses work together to hunt and rear the cubs. This allows them all to get the most from their energy, keeping them healthier and safer. Being smaller and lighter than males, lionesses are more agile and faster. During hunting, smaller females chase the prey towards the centre. The larger and heavier lionesses ambush or capture the prey. Lionesses are versatile and can switch hunting jobs depending on which females are hunting that day and what kind of prey it is. Lions have also been strongly associated with the Goddess since ancient times.</div>

Female spotted hyenas are larger and more aggressive than males, and it’s the females that dominate their social groups (each of which may have up to 60 members). The female hyena’s genitals even resemble the male genitals, making it difficult to differentiate between the sexes.</div>

Similar to bees, ants live in colonies led by a single queen, who focuses on mating and breeding to build the colony while the others tend to the work. If population size is a measure of success, then ants are the most successful creatures on the planet. If all of the ants in the world came together in one big mass, they would weigh more than the combined weight of the entire human population on Earth.</div>

<br />
Friday 13th is a very lucky day, not only is it 13 to represent the 13 lunar months of the female cycle, it is also falling on Friday - Goddess Freya is the origin of Friday. If you were told it is unlucky that is because of the RC Church were pushing their Solar calender for their Sun God, which is why Sunday is their Holy day. They have systematically demonised anything to do with the feminine.<div class="blogger-post-footer">© COPYRIGHT The Church of St Mary & St John 2011-2012.

Life isn't very easy is it? When you feel like an outsider looking in, when you always felt so different to everyone else, when no one ever seems to get you?<br />
<br />
Luckily for most of you reading this now you are getting the answers you have always wanted. You have started to find others like you, thanks to those who have been working hard to call you back to your own Kin. Your Kin might be far away and it is only the internet that finally brought you back to them. Suddenly your small world, trapped in isolation becomes bigger and possibilities start to blossom in your mind.<br />
<br />
What if we don't have to live like this? Imagine a world where you no longer had to follow the latest fashions in a media hell that tells you what you should look like and how to dress. Imagine a world where people weren't selfish, shallow and self-centred? Can you? You probably can because deep within your genetic memories you remember a place like that. A place where everyone pulled together to help each other, a place where money didn't exist, just barter, care and share systems. You probably have a deep longing to live like that again, living in harmony with nature, living from the land and doing away with mass produced factory foods and toxic pesticides. A place where we can run free in the fields and forest and feel at one with our beautiful planet, that all too often these days in modern society we are disconnected from and feel like aliens in a strange land.<br />
<br />
We can recreate our dream, and in fact as you read this the process is already starting... Some of us who are tired of the life in the modern world, in the materialistic dog eat dog societies, have got together and decided to realise the dream of living in harmony with nature.<br />
<br />
We have purchased a farm in rural Sweden, a place that is tranquil and away from the hustle and bustle of city life, with a great climate and many opportunities for turning it into an eco village that is sustainable and off-grid. The whole process has to start somewhere and someone had to start it, and that bit, the hardest bit is now done. But to realise the full dream, to be totally off-grid and self sufficient, the village will need more Kin to come forward and help it all come into vivid, bright and colourful reality.<br />
<br />
Having bought the 16 acre farm our funds are now completely depleted and there is so much more to do to it get up and running.<br />
<br />
1, We need people who want come to live and work there.<br />
<br />
2, We need people to volunteer to come and work there to help get it all set up.<br />
<br />
3, We need people to invest.<br />
<br />
With your help this dream can become a reality, even if you don't want to live there full time, just knowing there is somewhere in the world you can escape to is immensely appealing. In the future more land can be bought and in different areas and countries, spreading the dream and making it a reality to even more of our Kin.<br />
<br />
Are you willing to be one of those who dared to make dreams come true, or will you simply read this, and then go back to the sad greyness of your current reality? <br />
<br />
Dare you make dreams become reality?<br />

I have wrote and talked many times
about the origins and problems of the New Age Movement. I am writing this post
to bring them all together, plus go into more details about why it is so
dangerous for those who get involved with it.<br />
<br />
<h2>
<b>The New Age Movement of Lies</b></h2>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<b>1, We are all one, therefore we are the bad people in the world, we are our enemies, hating them is hating ourselves</b>. - This is dangerous because it allows psychopaths, tyrants and dictators to get away with everything and anything. Those taken in by the new age actually believe that nothing is bad, everything is acceptable because we are here just for some kind of experience, as if this is a virtual reality game and poverty and murder are acceptable and normal. We might all come from the same source if you go far enough back, but we are each individuals who are responsible for our actions.<br />
<br />
<b>2, We live in a holographic Universe, nothing is real</b> - I can assure you, we are real and so is the Universe. Again this is putting the idea into the seekers head that none of this real, and therefore they have no responsibilities.<br />
<br />
<b>3, Ignore everything negative, and bury your head in the sand when anyone says something about all the suffering in the world, just focus on the positive.</b> - Where as we should not dwell constantly on negative things, to remain balanced we must not ignore the negative. Things cannot get better if we don't think about solutions and to come up with solutions we must spend our time thinking about the negatives from all angles.<br />
<br />
<b>4, You must control your anger at all times, never express your anger about something, just walk away and avoid the thing or person who made you angry.</b> - This means you can never learn about why something makes you angry, you can never heal, you just keep it all bottled up inside and will start to become a bitter and nasty person. This will kill your spirit, that inner fire, that fire that makes great people achieve great things. If you feel angry about something, never be afraid of expressing that. Don't allow yourself to become a passive and very bitter person.<br />
<br />
<b>5, Truth is relative, there is no one truth, everyone's truth is different </b>- I am calling BULLSHIT on this one, this is said by "Gurus" who are spreading lies and when questioned about it they come out with some rubbish like this. There is the truth and there are lies, learn to know the difference. Use your intuition, learn how to and you can never be misled. So long as you keep on looking for the truth from others, you will be deceived. Truth is within, learn how to find it and trust it.<br />
<br />
<b>6, Truth doesn't need to be defended</b> - Oh yes it does. For thousands of years you and your ancestors have been successfully lied to, and anyone who was found to be a protector of the truth has been either burnt at the stake, turned up dead (and everyone is told they committed suicide or it was an accident) or publicly humiliated (constant attacks on their reputation in order to scare people away from listening to what they have to say). The truth has been defended by the Serpent Bloodline families for thousands of years. The truth does need defending or it wouldn't have survived.<br />
<br />
<b>7, You must always forgive, be non confrontational, non violent </b>- Why? This has always been peddled by religions, and the New Age Movement is no different. Sure, do forgive yourself for the mistakes you have made, but if someone murders your child or does something else completely UNFORGIVABLE then don't forgive them. The Government is robbing you blind right now, as are the Bankers. Don't forgive them, and don't forget. Don't just accept your slavery to the system, even though it is exactly what religions and the new age movement try to brainwash you into doing. Don't be a passive weak slave to them! Yoga and meditation are misused this way too, as the new age victims are taught to meditate their negative thoughts away, instead of using it to connect to your Higher Self.<br />
<br />
<b>8, Law of attraction - </b>This is all about<b> </b>psychopathy, all about ego, selfishness and me me me mentality - A child who is born in a war zone, who tries the law of attraction, gets no help from anyone. Middle class and rich people who use the law attraction are much more likely to achieve their goals, and that is because they are surrounded by opportunities. However the law of attraction tells us to believe we already have something, and when we do that, we think we already have it so give up trying, so are less likely to achieve our goals. Sigils are much more effective than the law of attraction can ever be. The dangers of believing in the law of attraction are the same as believing in reincarnation, which creates unfair caste systems. We arrogantly think that just because we were born into a wealthy family, it must mean we deserve it and people who are poor and live in terrible conditions, do so because they are paying for all the bad things they have done in another life. These myths are created to control us, and stop us getting ideas above our station, and they make us heartless towards the suffering of others. But it sure does make the rich westerners feel better about all the poverty people have to put up with in other countries.<br />
<div>
<br />
<b>9, For safety, give up your freedom.</b> - All religions teach you to give up something for others, much like governments and dictators will say they will look after us, so long as we do as we are told, follow their laws and work like slaves to feed their system. Religions and the new age movement teach you to follow their rules then you can go to heaven, or activate your DNA, enter the 5th dimension or board the mothership. Dangerous ideas like this can lead to life of slavery, and even worse to mass suicides, see Heaven's Gate for example, a typical new age alien worship group.<br />
<br />
<b>10, Earth is not our home.</b> - I have heard people say they feel like the Earth isn't their home. It makes me so upset. Religious people are told to breed and breed, because it doesn't matter, as they will be going to heaven soon, this life is just a test for their real life later in heaven. Just like new age followers are told they are star seeds, indigos, special moonbeams from another planet and they will be going home soon. Again, therefore they don't need to worry about the way this planet is going, it isn't important, they don't belong here. You do belong here, this is your home, like it or not and this planet is the only one we have. So please stop treating it like stop gap and start treating her with respect and help heal her. Your life is not a rehearsal. This is the only life you will ever get here on Earth and she is a beautiful planet.<br />
<div>
<br />
<b>11, Enlightenment is about being special and always happy.</b> - Being enlightened is nothing to do with being adored or feeling more important than everyone else. It is simply being able to have the fun and carefree nature of a child, who can laugh and make others laugh, while also being adult enough to have compassion for others and wanting to make the world a better place for all. Enlightenment is the beginning, not the end, it is a responsibility. Before we can change the world, we first must change ourselves. It is not enough to just find inner peace for ourselves and then do nothing, there needs to be action too.</div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tnw_3DJ_f5A/U1vpOATnhvI/AAAAAAAAAyc/JwaBHifuvCA/s1600/elements.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-tnw_3DJ_f5A/U1vpOATnhvI/AAAAAAAAAyc/JwaBHifuvCA/s1600/elements.jpg" width="230" /></a></div>
<br />
All religions, no matter which one are all from the same Gnostic roots. Over time they were messed about with, changed and had vast quantities of dogma added to them. Which flavour of religion you choose normally depends on your upbringing.. If your parents are Jewish, you will probably follow that religion, and associate yourself with its traditions and rules.<br />
<br />
How often do we hear Christian's, Jews and Muslims talk about witchcraft, tarot, astrology and how evil it is? A lot.<br />
<br />
However the truth is, those high up and in the know, in all religions will study the esoteric and most of them will know the true significance of the ceremonies they perform. Or do they? How many have spent their life studying to become a Rabbi, Priest or Bishop? Do they ever find out the truth about their religion being based on lies? If they do, I wonder if they decide that because they spent so many years studying to gain this knowledge, that they will keep it to themselves? Maybe they think people won't be able to cope with the truth.<br />
<br />
<b>The Elements</b><br />
<br />
Those of you conversant with the new age movement, which is supposedly a revival of an ancient witchcraft tradition (which I explain isn't in <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EcyyJyJX6ag&t" target="_blank">this video</a>) you will be aware that the elements play an important role in the rituals. Would it surprise you to know that they do in every other religion too?<br />
<br />
In Christianity and other religions they use incense in their ceremonies and worship. This they say consecrates the Temple. Incense represents fire and air, and is masculine. Holy water, which contains salt, is used to purify the Temple, this represents earth and water, and is feminine.<br />
<br />
Please note that the only true Temple or Church is our body, which is why most ritual purification and consecration is of bodies, not the building we are 'worshiping' in.<br />
<br />
Each of the four Archangels in Christianity represents an elemental.<br />
<br />
The truth be known the elements are deeply embedded into every religion, and all religions are based on the astrotheology teachings of the Gnostics.<br />
<br />
Having apparently different sides to choose from works well. It means no matter which side you are on, it is their's (the Eagles).<br />
<br />
Learning the true meaning of these religions can help you understand better what is really going on when you go to Church or visit a Temple.<br />

I notice France are currently having problems with Roma gypsies moving into their country, but they are not alone. All countries that they have moved into have increased crime rates. When you buy a house somewhere in Europe you always have to make checks to see if it is in a high Roma population area because you know that if you buy a house there it will never sell and you will probably spend your time having a lot of break-ins.<br />
<br />
<b>So what is it in their cultures that makes them the way they are?</b><br />
<br />
Well they are the untouchables, the lowest caste of the Hindu religious caste system. Their whole lot in life was to clean up the shit of the higher castes. Called untouchables because they were untouchable to the higher castes, and this system still goes on and is a strong part of the Hindu religion and traditions.<br />
<br />
Is it any wonder why they all decided to pack up and leave India? But being as they were the unskilled shit shovellers, who had not been allowed any kind of education, they had no kind of knowledge to pass on to their children, as they moved out of India and camped out in various countries across Europe. They continued to breed and the only thing they could pass on to their children was how to rob people. This problem is caused by lack of education and it will only get worse, as they have a lot of children.<br />
<br />
It was all caused by a caste system that the Hindus perverted from the Serpent Bloodline families. The families never told them to treat people who didn't have many of our genes like shit. It was different. We had tribes where everyone had jobs they were naturally drawn to. But when we left them to their own devices after teaching them about farming etc, and genetics. They decided that those who had the most of our genes, the pale ones, were the highest and most spiritual caste, as they were more like the 'gods' who taught them so much. So therefore those who had the least of our genes, and were darker skinned were shunned by the Hindus and made to do all the worst kind of jobs. They began to form a caste system where you were born into your caste, decided by your genes, and were not allowed to marry someone who wasn't in the same caste as you.<br />
<br />
This is completely different to the Serpent Bloodline only breeding with their own, because that is to keep the pure line, completely pure. But those with the highest amounts of our genes wanted to preserve as much of them as possible. It escalated into something very restrictive and oppressive. There are always reasons for only breeding with your own kind, the blood typing problems etc. The way those of the lower castes are treated is completely horrible and unfair.<br />
<br />
The religion they created, Hinduism, is not only deeply patriarchal and morally corrupt, it makes the lives of so many like hell, just because of their genes. It has created the Roma gypsy problem we are now faced with in Europe, and there is no turning back.<br />
<br />
All we can do is try to get them into education, so the Roma people won't think that begging, robbing and other crimes are the only way to survive. It is a problem that will not go away on its own.<br />
<br />
This article is for information only, it is no way meant to insinuate that ALL Roma gypsies steal things, because there are always exceptions. But you have to realise that they only do it because it is all they have known. The ones who have integrated more in the societies they live in and have made efforts to get jobs are generally good people. When someone is brought up to think that robbing people is how to make money, they just do it without thinking. To them it is just how life is, so we can not judge them as bad people. So we must also give them a chance to earn an honest wage by giving them the jobs in the first place, otherwise it is vicious circle that can never end.<br />

<br />
When looking into how our brains work we have all heard that the left brain is responsible for logical and linear thinking, whereas the right brain is responsible for the creative, artistic, and empathetic. Whereas this is true, there is a bit of each in the other side too. But what is most interesting is how most people look to Gods for how things are in the world, but when they do the Great Work they realise that we are the Gods and Goddesses. Let me explain.<br />
<br />
In the first Aeon, we had <b>Matriarchy</b> (This is the Mother part of the Trinity) - this was a time when right-brain thought ruled through society, meaning people were generally more creative, artistic and empathetic. Because generally, females are more in tune with their right brains, than males, who tend to be more left-brained, it meant that females were given more respect as leading the way in the mainstream norm of the day. If someone came along and tried to solve something in a more logical way they would have been shunned and told they were wrong to think like that, and this led to resentment and eventually disharmony among the left-brain thinkers, who rebelled and took over. This was easy for them because the right-brained people are loving and peaceful, they don't want wars. So to the logical left-brainers, it was a piece of cake. They saw this as a weakness that they took advantage of.<br />
<br />
Then came the second Aeon, which we are in now, the Aeon of <b>Patriarchy</b> (This is the Father part of the Trinity) - this is a time when left-brain thinking is dominant, and anyone who is a right-brained thinker is shunned as being different. The catchphrase of the day is - that isn't logical. It is seen as being silly and daft to be a right-brained thinker. Don't let your emotions run away with you, they say. It is a cold world that left brain thinkers invent and it hurts everyone, not just the right-brained thinkers. But slowly the left-brained thinkers start to get tired of war and hate, and the dog-eat-dog 'logical' culture and decide to become more empathetic. This is starting to happen now, slowly, but it is starting to happen. Eventually, they take on more of the right-brained way of thinking and this means balanced brains.<br />
<br />
This leads to the third Aeon, which we are currently moving into, the Aeon of <b>Veritas</b> (This is the Divine Child part of the Trinity) - this is a time when everyone learns to be balanced, to not be so linear thinking and logical that is removes emotions, but not be too emotional that it removes all logic. This is a fantastic time, the best Aeon, the one that will hopefully last a long time in the future when we get there. But as with all things, you can not have one thing without the other. Eventually, people will enjoy this bliss so much that they start to become too empathetic, and too emotional again and this leads straight back to the first Aeon again, then the second, then the third.<br />
<br />
This cycle will keep happening on Earth, there is nothing we can do to stop it, it just happens naturally, all things happen for a reason. we must endure the bad, to get to the good, and we can not have the good without the bad. When we realise this, we can see the crimes of the Aeon we are currently in and we will not fear the new Aeon coming, it is meant to be.<br />

<br />
There is some confusion about our Church because of another Church with the same name as ours in Ireland. Which is found here <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_St_Mary_and_St_John">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_of_St_Mary_and_St_John</a><br />
<br />
People are maliciously spreading rumours that we are involved with the Roman Catholic Church.<br />
<br />
The Church of St Mary & St John is a Celtic Gnostic Church which has nothing at all to do with the Roman Catholic Church, Christianity or any other religion.<br />
<br />
Our St Mary is Mary Magdalene and St John is John the Baptist.<br />
<br />
We are not congregational, and have no fixed building as a Church or Temple, we can set up to perform our ceremonies anywhere. Our ceremonies are esoteric and not for the profane.<br />
<br />
I hope this clear things up.<br />
<br />

<br />
The Great Work is simply your own personal path towards illumination or coming to know thyself.<br />
<br />
When you take a structured course involving ritual magick it is easier to make sense of everything and to know where you are using the Kabbalistic Tree of Life as a map.<br />
<br />
Another way is to isolate yourself and just meditate, until one day you might suddenly just 'get it' but that is a long shot, and in my view a waste of your life, when you could be living it and doing other things.<br />
<br />
The Gnostic Theolalite route through our Church does involve some meditation and taking time out to be alone with your thoughts, but it does not take over your life completely. If you are very serious about it though, you are likely to want to spend a lot of your time on it, eagerness, after all, is what it takes to be a true seeker of Gnosis. The course does not tell you what you should or shouldn't do on your own journey, it just helps you to learn about all the tools to help you on your way, and also teaches about various other things that are spirituality related.<br />
<br />
Everyone's path is different, we know that, and so should you. You couldn't pick up a text book, read the full instructions on how someone else became illuminated and expect it to work for you. By learning how it worked out for others, and taking bits and pieces from that, you can find your own way. Within a helpful community, such as our Church, you also have all the support you need along the way.<br />

Over time the general public have been led to believe many falsities about what it means to be Gnostic. They are told that the tradition came about in France, at about the time the Roman Catholic Church decided to burn our Gnostic ancestors at the stake for heresy. It is a repeating theme of the RC Church over the years, as time and time again they burnt people at the stake who failed to convert to their dogmatic religion which is based purely on allegory.<br />
<br />
Gnostics have been about for hundreds of thousands of years, they were first Shamans. To say Gnostics are Christian is laughable.<br />
<br />

<br />
If anyone would like to take a course on Esoteric Comparative Theology, please feel free to visit our web site and learn more about our seminary. On the course you will learn the hidden (occult) truth about ALL religions, and learn all about esoteric teachings for which the Roman Catholic Church murdered millions to try to keep this information from the people, as it would free them from the slavery and dogma the RC Church created through their lust for power and greed.<br />
<br />
The GNOSIS has been kept safe within our bloodline, and it will be known to all true seekers.<br />
<a href="http://churchsmsj.org/index.php/seminary">http://churchsmsj.org/index.php/seminary</a><br />
<br />
People who are caught up in religious dogma can not see the Divine Light of Gnosis, religion brainwashes and blinds them to the truth.<br />
<br />
<i>"Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."</i><br />
<br />
The Roman Catholic Church is the largest Church in the world, they all went through the wide gate and will never reach illumination.<br />

<br />
Did you know that every time you have meaningless sex with someone you don't love, you become dumber and less aware? It makes it harder to complete the Great Work, another reason why men find it harder than women.<br />
<br />
When Aleister Crowley talked about sacrificing a young boy, he was talking about when he climaxes, he has made a sacrifice.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<i>“For the highest spiritual working one must accordingly choose that victim which contains the greatest and purest force. A male child of perfect innocence and high intelligence is the most satisfactory and suitable victim.”</i></blockquote>
<br />
Using this method to gain magickal powers, is a sacrifice, as you lose out somewhere else later. This is also true when you use masturbation to charge a <a href="http://www.templeoftheola.org/sigilisation.html" target="_blank">sigil</a>. Unless you have already reached Kether, and therefore you can use your energy to help others.<br />
<br />
Making this sacrifice will make things harder to complete the work. Most people just do what is right for them NOW, and don't care about the consequences later, that is why New Age religions go on and on about living in the now, they never want you to reach your full potential. Of course it is wise to not worry about the past or the future, too much. However, if you don't 'act' now for the sake of your future, nothing ever changes, including your level of spiritual attainment.<br />
<br />
When you practise tantra you learn to never climax, and instead to loop the energy back round your system, so that it shoots back up your spine and down again in a cycle, in the figure of 8, the centre of the 8 is at your heart chakra, which is why performing tantra is about love and respect of yourself and your partner. This is one way to have sex without draining away your energy. The ecstasy can then last as long as you like as you loop the energy round. When you end the session, rather than climaxing you send the energy to your Crown, making it a win win situation.<br />
<br />
The best thing to do is never waste your energy, if you must release energy, use it to charge a sigil at the same time. Then at least it is going towards something good. If someone focuses on something negative as they release, like porn or some perversion, then that is what the energy is going towards. If you masturbate thinking about a celebrity for instance, your energy is going towards them. This is why sexy celebrities become so powerful. But if the energy is negative, then it can effect them badly too. For instance porn stars who are used purely for sex and not respected in any way, even though they have lots of money, they end up hooked on drugs and feeling worthless, then die young.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Sending out bad energy to others, hurts you as much as your victim though. Others sending you bad energy, does affect your life, people in the public eye risk a lot by being there.... hence, they have sold their soul to the Devil, the Devil here represents the dark side which is inside all of us, we can use our energy for good or bad. Using it for bad harms us, using it for good is a sacrifice, using it within ourselves helps us in the Great Work.<br />

<br />
Within The Church of St Mary & St John we have a Sacred Holy Herb, which has
been used in our Gnostic Shamanistic Ceremonies for hundreds of thousands of
years. However, we have never been, as a people, or as a group of 'Knowledge
Seekers' an organised religion, and therefore when the Eagles took over they
took our Sacred Holy Herb away from us.<br />
<br />
There are many reasons why they took it from us, some of those reasons are
because with hemp you can make very cheap fuel, so the oil industry would no
longer make such large profits, also cannabis heals and helps so many different
health conditions it would put the big pharmaceutical industry in jeopardy. It
also stops people being violent and aggressive, which would make the world a
more peaceful place and prevent profitable wars. There are many reasons to take
it from us.<br />
<br />
Because we think it should be legal, and we should all be able to use it as we
want, and grow it whenever we want, one of our ways of trying to do this is to set
up our Gnostic tradition as a 'religion' we then wrote it into our Canon Laws.
This means if we get enough people supporting what we are doing, we will become a
full stand alone organised religion, and because it is in our Canon Laws that we
should be able to use our Sacred Holy Herb, anyone who tries to prevent us is
discriminating against our religious beliefs. That is the plan anyway.<br />
<br />
This is the section from our Canon Laws regarding it on page 15:<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
Words in Hebrew become plural by adding ים or ות and that ות is generally for Feminine words and ים for Masculine, but there are exceptions, like (father)אב -- which plural is:<br />אבות(fathers/fatherhood).<br /><br />So אלוה, is the feminine form of the word אל. A ה at the end of the word indicates a feminine noun.<br /><br />So אלהים is the plural of אלוה, with an irregular masculine ending of ים. If you were to make אל plural there wouldn't be that extra ה added to the word.<div>
<br />In the bible אלהים is translated into English as a singular masculine noun, when in Hebrew it seems that it is neither. In Genesis 1:1, when says<br />בראשית ברא אלהים את השמים ואת הארץ<br />the verb ברא is in the perfect form for the singular masculine, according to Christian Theologians it is possible to have a singular intensive conjugation, where a group acts with one agency [also, some Christian theologians try to draw parallels because the feminine nature of the word אלהים and Catholic construct of the Trinity, because the word πνεύμα in Greek is feminine also].</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Looking at English translations, there's a cover up. Especially if you look at poor translations like the KJV, where they seem to arbitrarily translate as 'God" (gen1:1) or "Gods" (gen3:5), but never as Goddesses.</div>
<div>
<br />To across the board translate אלהים as a singular masculine word seems incorrect and almost like there's a theological agenda, or other cultural hang-ups, to suppress the blatantly female overtones in describing the Divine.</div>

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Te83OrRu3K8/UdxuZ-0NBNI/AAAAAAAAAgI/tiPffL81sIU/s1600/white+powder.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-Te83OrRu3K8/UdxuZ-0NBNI/AAAAAAAAAgI/tiPffL81sIU/s320/white+powder.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
The phrase "monoatomic gold" was invented by someone with little knowledge of science who was trying to scam people out of money. <br />
<br />
Monoatomic compounds are specifically compounds that are not diatomic. The term really only applies to gaseous compounds. For example, gaseous hydrogen has the formula H2, making is diatomic, while gaseous helium has the formula He, making it monoatomic. <br />
<br />
Gold is a solid, and therefore has a crystal structure, making any discussion of it being monoatomic or diatomic meaningless. <br />
<br />
The only way that gold could be 'monoatomic' is if it were in liquid or gas form, which in both cases would absolutely not be a 'white powdered' substance, but would rather be extremely hot, extremely toxic molten or vaporised metal.<br />
<br />
Finally, compounds that do not exist monoatomically in nature generally cannot exist monoatomically otherwise. A compound with the formula H, for example, cannot exist for any longer than a few seconds, because it will necessarily bond with something. <br />
<br />
In conclusion, 'monoatomic gold' is nonsense.<div class="blogger-post-footer">© COPYRIGHT The Church of St Mary & St John 2011-2012.

You only get one chance at life on Earth, one chance to complete the Great Work
while you are here. There will never be in a time in your life when there is
nothing at all going on, and you can spend all your time focused just on
the Great Work. People are all too willing to keep putting it off, or using
others/things as a scapegoat or excuse as to why they "can't" do it.... Then they
drop dead.<br />
<br />
Those who are determined to succeed, no matter what it takes, are the
ones who find true Gnosis. It isn't easy, no one ever said it would be, no one
can wave a magick wand over you, (although the new age Reiki lot would
have you believe that) and you gain Illumination.<br />
<br />
Once you have worn out all
your excuses, delayed it, put it off for the last time and you draw your
final breath, that is when it will really hit you - that you could have found
the time, you were just too scared to fail, and with that fear leading you, you
did.<br />
<br />
You are very lucky, because you still have time RIGHT NOW to make a start, or maybe you are too
tired? Or you have a hundred other things to do? Well you just found the
time to read this.<div class="blogger-post-footer">© COPYRIGHT The Church of St Mary & St John 2011-2012.

The forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden was the knowledge of the Serpent Bloodline. Apples have always
been associated with Gnosis, Sophia and the Goddess. Cut an apple in half and
you will find that the core and pips have created a five pointed star, as does
Venus in her transit - As above, so below here on Earth. On Earth as it is in Heaven above, where the Goddess Lucifer resides.<br />

<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-prR8fpiN6QA/UUPXDD_DUOI/AAAAAAAAAcE/EoYtTGCh8ew/s1600/archegoniumel+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="231" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-prR8fpiN6QA/UUPXDD_DUOI/AAAAAAAAAcE/EoYtTGCh8ew/s400/archegoniumel+copy.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
I decided I would create a sigil to help those who suffer from chronic pain, but you can also use this if you have a headache or some other kind of temporary pain. Video at bottom.<br />
<br />
<b> How it works </b><br />
<br />
When I created the sigil I gave it certain instructions and this is how it works. When you feel pain, call the name of the sigil, which is Archegoniumel. <br />
<br />
Bring an image of the sigil to mind. <br />
<br />
Imagine all your pain being focused towards the sigil, imagine the pain being drained away.<br />
Archegoniumel will absorb the pain away from you, it will then work at converting that pain into healing energy, which it will in turn send back to you.<br />
<br />
Your pain will ease and you will feel lighter, uplifted and much happier. Archegoniumel will also send you some good luck.<br />
<br />
After you have finished, be sure to say thank you to Archegoniumel for her help.<br />
<br />
The more Archegoniumel is used, the more powerful a healer she becomes, this is something we are all building up and helping with together as we use her as a healer.<br />
<br />
Sigils are very powerful and useful tools to achieve amazing results, if you would like a personal sigil making, please contact us at <a href="http://alchemistslaboratory.com/" target="_blank">Alchemist's Laboratory</a> and we will make your wishes come true.<br />
<br />
When in pain.. Remember my name...<br />
Archegoniumel<br />

<br />
How to spot a fake movement funded by Eagle psyops and used to bring in Agenda 21.<br />
<br />
<ol>
<li>They appear overnight with a massive following.</li>
<li>Surprise surprise they have the backing of film stars and other celebrities.</li>
<li>They have very high quality videos that cost a fortune to produce, that seem to have been made before the funding even started.</li>
<li>They tug on your heart strings by having victims of whatever they are pushing in the video.</li>
<li>They usually involve mentioning aliens, but not always.</li>
<li>They nearly always talk about the environment and how people destroy it.</li>
</ol>

Changes don't happen, and people die every day needlessly in wars because millions of us tell ourselves that caring is just as good as doing. It's an internal mechanism controlled by the lazy part of your brain to keep you from actually doing anything. Why make any effort to make a difference, when you know deep down inside you really do care, and 'your thoughts are with' those unfortunate people who suffer the most in the world?<br />
<br />
I will tell you why - because you have to be the one to change things. You have to be the one to help. You have to be the one who get other people involved in changing things. Just caring isn't enough.<br />
<br />
If you <a href="http://www.templeoftheola.org/donations.html" target="_blank">give what you can to help us get on with things</a>, you are someone who has become a Contributor, rather than just a Thinker, you are stepping in the right direction.<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 13px;"><br /></span>
However, become a Doer, a Motivator or anything else you have the skills to
do... and then you will be more than a Contributor, you will be a cog in the
engine of change, a petal on the flower of peace and a droplet in the ocean of
balanced harmony.<br />

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cXS8pgeDFYc/UQNtrXpXUQI/AAAAAAAAAW0/W2xEWquoXeM/s1600/alien_face_57.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="225" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-cXS8pgeDFYc/UQNtrXpXUQI/AAAAAAAAAW0/W2xEWquoXeM/s400/alien_face_57.JPG" width="400" /></a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<b>Why do so many fall for alien or new age theories?</b><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Since you were born you have been programmed, <b>consistently,</b> into thinking that aliens do exist and that the government know about this, but are just covering it up. You have watched movies about this, see secret 'leaked' reports and films. Heard accounts of people seeing UFOs and some even saying they have been anally probed when abducted by aliens. It is deeply embedded into your unconscious that -- <i>aliens exist, and those who don't know this just don't have an open mind</i>.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<b>So what happens when time and time again the 'proof' people come up with is debunked?</b><br />
<br />
Psychologists have understood for years that humans want to be seen as being <b>consistent</b>. Not only do we want to be consistent to ourselves, we want to look consistent to others. Leon Festinger describes this quite nicely in his book Cognitive Dissonance.<br />
<br />
A person who is consistent is seen as stable, honest and trustworthy. A useful member of society! Now try to imagine how a society would function with totally inconsistent members…!</div>
<br />
In his book on influence Cialdini explains that behaving consistently with our thoughts and beliefs is often much easier than having to change our thinking. Because if we took the time to think, we might not like what we realise.<br />
<br />
And whatever happens, most of us don't want to be seen to be wrong. So once we have started into something, there are very strong forces pushing us to continue. Once we make a decision, we create reasons and justifications for it and so the idea 'grows legs of its own'.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Because of these types of influence Cialdini points out that sometimes we will act in ways that are contrary to our own best interests. I'll say that again. <b>These influences mean that sometimes we will act in ways that are contrary to our own best interests.</b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
<b><u>Conclusion</u></b></div>
<div>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div>
Even though people realise aliens haven't visited us, and we have no idea if any life does exist on other planets - they would rather look stupid and feel they are right, than back down and say they were wrong. And after all you can always persuade yourself with more pseudoscience and there is always some raving lunatic of a guru out there to validate your delusions.</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rq8In3j8_h0/UP1uNIyWOnI/AAAAAAAAASs/qXxUhc3LFlY/s1600/jesus-in-my-heart-jesus-31696640-1088-1200.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Rq8In3j8_h0/UP1uNIyWOnI/AAAAAAAAASs/qXxUhc3LFlY/s320/jesus-in-my-heart-jesus-31696640-1088-1200.jpg" width="288" /></a></div>
<br />
We are often asked about the physical appearance of Jesus, and well being that he was one of the Serpent Bloodline it is very easy to figure out.<br />
<br />
Under our videos we constantly get comments from people implying that we are lying for even suggesting that Jesus had red hair and blue eyes. They claim that Jesus was a black man, like some claim the Egyptian Pharaohs were black too. Well with DNA testing we have established this is a completely in correct, however we don't have a mummy of Jesus to test, and the Turin Shroud has been proven a medieval fake several times over.<br />
<br />
Others imply he would have been olive skinned because he was from the Middle East. However seeing as some of us can trace our family lines directly back to Jesus and have -- you guessed it - red hair, blue eyes and O rh negative blood, it is easy for us to accept. In our other articles we also explain that Tigris is the area where our bloodline has its origins. But for all those who can not accept it, lets look at some things that would suggest that Jesus did indeed have red hair and blue eyes.<br />
<br />
Firstly, he is a direct line descendant of King David, lets look into the physical characteristics of King David.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qjXvpXb20-U/UP1v17zXRvI/AAAAAAAAATA/OynbdFTGZ0E/s1600/girolamo-da-santa-croce-king-david-playing-a-psaltery_i-G-16-1657-73WGD00Z.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-qjXvpXb20-U/UP1v17zXRvI/AAAAAAAAATA/OynbdFTGZ0E/s400/girolamo-da-santa-croce-king-david-playing-a-psaltery_i-G-16-1657-73WGD00Z.jpg" width="296" /></a></div>
<br />
David was born about 1030 BC. He was “ruddy, and withal of a beautiful countenance, and goodly to look to” (I Samuel 16:12). Ruddy means more than a rosey-cheeked boy. The Hebrew is ארמים (‘admônîy), meaning red hair. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
And that is not all, it goes further back into the royal line<span style="font-family: Verdana;"><span style="font-size: 14px; line-height: 23.09375px;"> </span></span>with the grandson of Abraham, Esau, twin brother of Jacob.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
At the birth of the two brothers, “came out red, all over like a hairy garment.” (Genesis 25:25).<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Red hair seems to run in this family. Also notice that through history, within the old royal families, red hair was common among them. Yet not in the general public.</div>

Some of the oldest Clowns would often have red wigs and paint their faces white. It is because street entertainers of that era would have mocked royalty often, and seeing as the royals all had red hair and pale white skin, this was why they dressed like that, in an emphasized way.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Even today clowns mock those with red hair and pale skin.</div>

Few people are aware that in the archives of Rome there is a physical description of Jesus. It is contained in a report written during Jesus’ lifetime by a Roman, Publius Lentulus, to the Emperor Tiberias. It reads as follows:<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
‘There has appeared in Palestine a man who is still living and whose power is extraordinary. He has the title given him of Great Prophet; his disciples call him the Son of God. He raises the dead and heals all sorts of diseases.<br />
He is a tall, well-proportioned man, and there is an air of severity in his countenance which at once attracts the love and reverence of those who see him. His hair is the colour of new wine from the roots to the ears, and thence to the shoulders it is curled and falls down to the lowest part of them. Upon the forehead, it parts in two after the manner of Nazarenes.<br />
His forehead is flat and fair, his face without blemish or defect, and adorned with a graceful expression. His nose and mouth are very well proportioned, his beard is thick and is the colour of his hair. His eyes bright blue, clear and serene. Look innocent, dignified, manly and mature.’</blockquote>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<b><u>Conclusion</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
No accounts from anyone or anything you show them will persuade some people. I have just tried to show how the royal line to which he belongs do have red hair and blue eyes, so why wouldn't he?<br />
