Modern science tells us that Energy and Matter are interchangeable – both have their foundation based in electrons, atoms, photons. These days we use the term Electromagnetism (EM) a lot and we understand that the whole range of lightwaves and soundwaves, even those beyond the human senses, are part of the EM spectrum. But Magnetism can be considered in its own right, independently from Electricity.

What I am being told by my friend in astrophysics now is that the secrets of the Sun may be more to do with Magnetism than Electricity, so perhaps we should reflect on the former for a moment. Magnetism is neither matter nor energy – it is a Force. Most of us are aware of a Trinity or Trilogy of terms, including ‘Mind, Body, Spirit.’

Being ever mindful that playing with words and terminology is akin to negotiating a minefield, we may still take a moment to consider that Force does not consist of electrons or protons. Yet, I suggest, it is behind both of these and must exist before they manifest its principles.

I see Force as being the non-physical, non-material cause behind our existence on this Earthly plane. The Nobel Laureate Sir Rabindranath Tagore (1861 – 1941) said, “It appears that the idea of causality is not in the elements, but that some other Force builds up with them an organised universe.”

Some mystical societies like to refer to the Absolute as the God-Force. And, of course, this month the fans of Star Wars celebrate ‘May the Fourth’ as the day of the Force – even though it is a work of fiction, much has been written lately about the writers of Hollywood being used to convey deeper messages to the public.

In my case, this article represents the beginning of a new series I need to write about… it will involve a lot about Force, Magnetism and the manifestation of Spheres.

This Easter, I will once again quote from the wise words of Paul Tisdell:

Let us allow a free flow of kabbalistic ideas to see what presents itself. EAST is a direction; it is where the Sun rises. Some of its correspondences are, the head of man, the Cherubim of air, air is your thoughts. Christ rose from the cross just as the Sun rises from the death of night - what is it that lifts the thoughts from darkness to light?

The ER from Easter, er or R is the Sun, the Hebrew letter Rysh 200. Rysh is ‘the archetype of universal or cosmic containers’, the head, a new evolution, it is the tarot card of the Sun showing a new child going forth upon a white horse.

The second line of the Kabbalah of 9 chambers is 222, 2 is Byth, the house created by the magician, via the elements. 20 kaph is ‘to receive’ as the wheel turns and 200 is the new birth from that process. It is all about consciousness - the head of man, the east, R a new evolution, based on how you master the elements (magician), reap what you sow (the wheel) and how you overcome adversity is the child of the Sun going forth in a new day, reborn through the darkness of night. […]

Christ spent 3 days in that cave. Binah is the Planet Saturn whose symbol is a cross above a cave. Saturn is sorrows, death and karma. Binah is understanding - without understanding you are in the darkness. The sage goes within the cave to meditate, a death where if successful is reborn enlightened, a child of the Sun/Son, and re enters the world. The World card is Saturn showing the bride of alchemy in the posture of alchemic sulphur/soulfire, a conscious soul.

The following is an extract from an article in Live Science online, 24 March 2023
(Read full article HERE).

“Archaeologists in Egypt have discovered broken statues of ancient royalty at a sun temple in Heliopolis, an archaeological site that was once a major city near what is now Cairo. 

“The stone-carved fragments include depictions of Ramesses II (reign circa 1279 B.C. to 1213 B.C.), Ramesses IX (reign circa 1126 B.C. to 1108 B.C), Horemheb (reign circa 1323 B.C. to 1295 B.C.) and Psamtik II (reign 595 B.C. to 589 B.C.), the Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities said in a statement released March 20. 

“Sun temples are found at a number of sites in Egypt and are dedicated to Ra, the ancient Egyptian Sun god, but the Sun temple at Heliopolis was of particular importance. (Heliopolis is a Greek name; the Egyptian name was Iunu.) 

“According to ancient Egyptian belief, Heliopolis is where "the world was created, with the first sunrise," excavation dig leader Dietrich Raue, the director of the Cairo department of the German Archaeological Institute, told Live Science in an email. "Here the connection of kingship to the creator and Sun god was celebrated," Raue said, noting that pharaohs constructed statues, obelisks and other structures at Heliopolis to legitimize their rule and honor the Sun god.”

Julian (Born Flavius Claudius Julianus in 331 AD, died 26 June 363 AD) was Roman emperor from 361 to 363 AD, as well as a notable philosopher and author in Greek. Raised as a Christian, he later embraced Neoplatonic Hellenism and became a devotee of the Sun.

The following is from Wikisource - Hymn to King Helios:
“Emperor Julian followed Plotinus and Iamblichus in making the supreme principle the One (ἓν) or the Good (τὸ ἀγαθὸν) which presides over the intelligible world (νοητὸς κόσμος), where rule Plato's Ideas, now called the intelligible gods (νοητοὶ θεοί). Iamblichus had imported into the Neo-Platonic system the intermediary world of intellectual gods (noeroi theoi). On them Helios-Mithras, their supreme god and centre, bestows the intelligence and creative and unifying forces that he has received from his transcendental counterpart among the intelligible gods. The third member of the triad is the world of sense-perception governed by the Sun, the visible counterpart of Helios. What distinguishes Julian's triad from other Neo-Platonic triads is this hierarchy of three Suns in the three worlds: and further, the importance that he gives to the intermediary world, the abode of Helios-Mithras. He pays little attention to the remote intelligible world and devotes his exposition to Helios, the intellectual god, and the visible Sun.”

To determine how much gold is in the Sun, researchers have analyzed its light, because every element leaves its trace in the spectrum of sunlight. In a study from 2014, a team led by astrophysicist Nicolas Grevesse from the University of Liege found that in the Sun there are only eight gold atoms for every trillion hydrogen atoms.

That doesn’t sound like much at first. But if you consider that the mass of the Sun corresponds to 1.99 quintillion tons or 332,946 times the mass of the Earth, it is a lot. The total mass of gold in the Sun amounts to 2.34 trillion tons. A trillion is a number with 18 zeros.

All oceans on earth contain water with a total weight of around 1.3 trillion tons. So, there is almost twice as much gold in the Sun as there is water in the world’s oceans, at least in terms of weight. The reserve of gold on Earth appears rather poor compared to the solar treasury. Around 150,000 tons of gold have been mined on our planet and processed into jewellery and bars.

If the entire gold supply of mankind were poured into cubes, it would have an edge length of just 20 meters and a surface area of just 2.4 KM. The gold of the Sun, on the other hand, would result in a cube with an edge length of almost 500 kilometres and a surface area of 1.5 Million KM.

I have quoted before from the works of Paul Tisdell and I think it is apt to do so again here in regard to Alchemy.
Gold is incorruptible, it is the metal of the Sun, the Sun shines constantly; the movement of the Earth creates duality, night and day, life and death. Consider a Sun-like consciousness that has no day and night, no life and death, it is one consciousness – your soul, solar the Sun, the Son/Sun of God.

The entire Sun vibrates from a complex pattern of acoustical waves, much like a bell. The Sun's acoustical waves bounce from one side of the Sun to the other in about two hours, causing the Sun's surface to oscillate, or wiggle up and down. If your eyes were sharp enough, you could see a bell's surface jiggle in complex patterns as the waves bounced around within it.
The Song of the Sun – just like its 11-year & 22-year cycles – is governed by its magnetism.

To hear an audio version of the “hum” of the Sun, try this link from Stanford University: http://soi.stanford.edu/results/sounds.html (Choose the format according to whatever program you have on your PC. Mine plays the AU but not the AIFF format, for example).

The Sun is a magnetic ball composed largely of plasma, with a solid core surrounded by liquid moving in waves. Recent photographs taken by solar observatory spacecraft show us a lot about the visible surface, although mainstream science is reluctant to accept what it sees. If you find yourself interested in the Sun, explore some of the its sounds that can be found on the internet, via Google.

The famous Trundholm Sun Chariot is a bronze and gold artifact said to belong to the Nordic Bronze Age (created around 1400 BC). It consists of a bronze horse, a bronze disc with a thin sheet of gold pressed into one side, and six four-spoke wheels made also of bronze. The artifact was first discovered on the coast of the southern Danish Island of Zealand in 1902.
 
The importance of the Trundholm Sun Chariot lies in the fact that it is the finest example of a crucial aspect of Scandinavian Bronze Age religion: the cosmic passage of the Sun through heavenly light and the darkness of the underworld. One side of the Sun disk is gilded, to give the impression of the Sun during the day, while the other side was left dark as way of depicting the journey of the Sun during the night.
 
The following two paragraphs are excerpts from an article that appeared recently in Ancient Origins (by DHWTY):
“Apart from being a ritual object, it has also been suggested that the Trundholm Sun Chariot may have functioned as a calendar. This theory was proposed by Klaus Randsborg, a professor of archaeology at the University of Copenhagen, who explained that the golden day-side of the Trundholm Sun Chariot has dimensions associated with one third of a solar year.

“Ransborg argues that the night-side of the large central concentric circle has dimensions linked to six lunar months. He therefore concluded that ‘the reference is to the Sun-calendar on the day-side, and to the Moon-calendar on the night-side of the Sun Chariot, which seems the perfect calculation’.”
 
Travelling Suns not only appeared in Norse, Celtic, and Hindu mythology, but were also prominent features of Egyptian and Greek traditions. In ancient Egypt, the Sun was represented as being transported across the sky by Ra’s solar barge, or pushed by Khepri, a being depicted as a scarab. Due to the importance of the Sun as a life-giving force, it is not too difficult to understand why the ancients perceived the Sun as being divine.

Long-time host of ‘UFO Sightings Daily,’ Scott C. Waring, has posted this article, which is accompanied by a short You Tube clip. You can see why he speculates the existence of a city in the Sun. Scott invites readers to leave comments and share with their friends.

His article says:
“A dark area of the sun began to form as the surface material moved away, revealing something below the surface of the sun. I believe this is an alien mega structure. What I mean is we see only about 3% of the structure, because the rest is deeper within the sun. We only see the 3% because these structures are taller like mountains on Earth poking through the clouds. I have done UFO research for over 20 years and during this time I have only seen this phenomenon twice. That last time was back in 2013 as I show you in the video below. This is undeniable proof that there is a Dyson sphere within our sun!”

Mostly I write about the timeline from when Western Civilization started two and a half millennia ago, up to the present day. The images on this page of beings carrying certain objects relate back to the previous era, when they often came and went between the Celestial dimension and the Earthly realm. Look at the way many ancient Egyptian images show beings (both human and other) gripping the Ankh in the same manner that ancient Sumerians gripped what appear to be “handbags.”

These are power packs and keys to the higher realm. You will see pictures of Egyptian adepts using them to endow mortals with the power of ascension.

As Empedocles recorded, there was a time of experimentation a few thousand years ago, when those of the next higher dimension took on hybrid forms. I have written about the Birdmen and the Tetramorphs in other articles on this website.

In the modern world it is rare for humans to be visited by Masters who carry these keys to ascension with them. One needs to resonate with the Frequency of Unconditional Love before they can break free from the repetitious mundane cycle.

Presently I am re-reading the classic work, Meditations, by Marcus Aurelius, having being gifted a hard-cover copy of it. I am struck by the fact that he refers to the Pre-Socratic philosopher Empedocles no less than three times in the book.

My readers know that I am an ardent admirer of Empedocles. About twenty years ago, I made a pilgrimage to visit his birthplace, Agrigento in southern Sicily, where the ancient Valley of the Temples is situated. I have written about him for magazines and incorporated his life and works into one non-fiction book, The Sign of the Quatrefoil, as well as my novel, The Griffin in the Valley.

In Meditations 12.3, Marcus writes, “Make yourself like Empedocles’ Sphere, ‘All round, and in its joyous rest reposing,’ - striving to live only the life that belongs to you here and now, then you will live out the rest of your days with peace and kindness, at peace with the divine spark within you” (which he calls your Daimon).

In 8.41 he refers again the Empedocles’ Sphere saying, “Neither fire, nor iron, nor a tyrant, nor abuse, touches it in any way. A sphere once forms remains round and true.”

In 11.12 he declares that, “The spherical form of the soul maintains its form when neither stretching itself out towards anything outside itself nor contracting itself inwards, and when it is neither dispersed outwards nor shrinking back into itself, but is illuminated by light, by which it sees the truth, the truth of all things and the truth within itself.”  Here, the image of the Empedoclean Sphere appears to merge with that of the Sun shining its pure light onto objects without being defiled by them.

Quotes from Marcus Aurelius about the Sun:
“The Sun appears to pour itself down, and indeed its light pours in all directions, but the stream does not run out. This pouring is linear extension: that is why its beams are called rays, because they radiate in extended lines.” (From Meditations).

“Your days are numbered. Use them to throw open the windows of your soul to the Sun. If you do not, the Sun will soon set, and you with it.” (From The Emperor’s Handbook).
