The Emerald City: The Extended Metaphor

The Emerald City, not to be mistaken for a literal place within this fictional tale is about the journey towards enlightenment along with the pitfalls along the way. Could the cowardly lion be associated with an unactivated heart chakra? The tin man could possibly be a representation of the sleeping man, they need to travel along the yellow brick road, the rusted tin man cant harvest what is needed because he is rusted up with ignorance until Sophia, Dorthy, oils him up with knowledge. Ill elaborate on this more however Im placing it here until I can do so. 
     Let us look at the name Dorthy. Etymology The English form of Latin Dorothea, the name of a legendary saint, from Ancient Greek Δωροθέα (Dōrothéa), from δῶρον (dôron, “gift”) + θεός (theós, “god”).

     In regards to the tin man you have what could possibly be a reference to the iron age and an ending of this age. 

DOROTHY. Why, it's a man! A man made of out tin!
TINMAN. (Through rusted jaws', he speaks) Oil can! Oil Can!
DOROTHY. Did you say something?
TINMAN. Oilcan!
DOROTHY. He said oil can.
SCARECROW. Oil can what?
DOROTHY. Oilcan? Here it is. Where do you want to be oiled first?
TINMAN. My mouth—my mouth!
SCARECROW. He said his mouth! The other side!
DOROTHY. Yes — there.
TINMAN. Me...e....me...e...M-m-my, my, my, my goodness, I can talk again!
Oh — oil my arms, please — oil my elbows. Oh! Oh!
(DOROTHY and the SCARECROW oil the TINMAN and exercising his stiff'limbs. DOROTHY. Here.
DOROTHY and the SCARECROW oil the TINMAN'S arm holding
the axe and it falls to HIS side with a clank. TINMAN. Oh!
DOROTHY. Did that hurt?
TINMAN. No, it feels wonderful. I've held that axe up for ages.
DOROTHY. Oh goodness! How did you ever get like this?
TINMAN. Well, when I was flesh and blood like you, I fell in love with a Munchkin
maiden whose mother hated me.

     This could also be alluding to the prana flowing through the nervous system. 
      I think another important point here is to show how closely the tin man relates to a christ like motif when its mentioned "when I was flesh and blood like you."

The Nine Unknown Men And Alien Spacecraft

      The question of occult knowledge being in the hands of the masses seems to be a topic of debate.  The knowlege can be used for good or for evil however let me say that this knowlege is reached a mature age.  If one is familar with the yuga cycles then one will know that there will be new knowledge to come forth, some of which some may not be able to comprehend do to calcified pineal glands. They will quite literally be left behind.        In regards to cosmology with light being used as a weapon, why has it been deemed that seemingly unworthy beings are allowed to possess such technology?  It could be a last ditch effort of sorts to get rid of those which they deem real threat towards what is to occur.       Could the 100000 lost in battle be an allegory for those left behind in a a new age?      Bacteriophages is said to be contained within the healing waters however what if this is not literal w...

Hectates Relationship with Luciferianism, Shakespeare and Syncretism

 Hectates relationship with luciferianism and Shakespeare    From "A Midsummer-Night's Dream," Act V. Scene 2 PUCK sings: NOW the hungry lion roars,  And the wolf behowls the moon;  Whilst the heavy ploughman snores,  All with weary task fordone.  Now the wasted brands do glow,  Whilst the screech-owl, screeching loud,  Puts the wretch that lies in woe  In remembrance of a shroud.  Now it is the time of night,  That the graves, all gaping wide,  Every one lets forth his sprite,  In the churchway paths to glide:  And we fairies, that do run  By the triple Hecate's team,  From the presence of the sun,  Following darkness like a dream, Now are frolic; not a mouse  Shall disturb this hallowed house:  I am sent with broom before  To sweep the dust behind the door.  The three phases of the moon relate to this poem in regards to waxing, waning and being full however is there an instant...

Christ The Man Christ The God Christ The Magician And Christ the Sorcerer Son of God Son of Man and other Motifs

      I will start out by differentiating what is the difference between sorcory and magic.  I will also show how this is presented in sciptures such as the bible.  One would normally associate the word abrahadbra with magic in the sense of parlor tricks however this is actually not magic but rather is sorcery which aims to decieve ones senses.  I will also explain what a context is. A context is thus: the circumstances that form the setting for an event, statement, or idea, and in terms of which it can be fully understood.       "Fortune by lot" refers to a person's fate or destiny, determined by chance or random selecton, as opposed to predetermined or earned.         So with this in mind I would say that sorcery is using ones intelligence while magic is the use of supernatural phenominon.          Ones lot for life for example is one who does not transcend ones fate however fate can be thwa...
