Grandmother Spider, the Planet Venus and the Dawn of Peace

The ancient astronomers found associations between the visible planetary spheres and number grids called Kameas or magic squares.These mathematical "novelties" help students of the old geocentric based wisdom streams understand cycles and changes in humanity and the epochs of civilizations. The planetary grids themselves weave together patterns that connect math and astronomy with the knowledge of ancient wisdom lineages. Their associated legends, sacred scriptures and prophecies are thus better understood and connected. Our times are witnessing an obvious synchronistic pulse of change since we are coming to an end of the eight year window between the rare astronomical phenomena called the transit of the planet Venus when the planet is seen to move across the face of the sun as a black disk. In several months from now during the Tibetan year of the water dragon, the Hebrew year 5772, and Gregorian June,2012 we will witness this rare transit of Venus. The kamea/magic square corresponding to the planet Venus(see picture 7X7 grid) gives us the significance of this transit since it is the 25th time it will occur since the second Jewish temple was destroyed(70ce) and the Christian era began. What is known as the central palace or innermost box of the Venus grid is the number Twenty five as can be seen. This number is significant both because it is in the center of the whole grid as well as being associated with the other "morning star", Mars, who is one of the Grandsons of Spiderwoman in her legends of Native America, and is revered as the peacemaker morning star by ancient American wisdom traditions(Skidi Pawnee). The planet Venus is associated with the ancient American legends of the Spiderwoman who weaves our living world in the physical in part due to her regular visible cycles and the fact that over an eight year period she makes a pentagram(golden mean) design associated with her conjunctions with the sun, in the sky. The synchronistic significance is that we are now entering the dawn of a new epoch of civilization that many ancient traditions knew about and recorded. This is an epoch of balance and beauty(Mars and Venus). Another significance of the number twenty five is that the kamea of Mars is a box of twenty five numbers as can be seen from the picture(grid of 5X5), the central box of this Mars grid is the number thirteen which in the Hebrew wisdom is associated with the words echad/unity and ahavah/love.

Below is the table of the transits of Venus across the face of the sun for the last two thousand years. the twenty fourth one occurred in June 2004 and the next one completing the eight year window will occur next June.It will not happen again for over a hundred years.

verse 5772 of torah the Hebrew year of Water Dragon

As mentioned often in this blog the understanding of worldview by means of dimensionality and centrality in the universe is a key to understanding and living the wisdom of the ancient sages of our world's religions. The three kinds of movements of our holy globe Earth are connected to spanning out the five continuums(dimensions) and their vertices, called the omakim/depths in the ancient hebrew. These Ten "depths" are also a key teaching in Buddhism as the ten spans of the universe of manifestation. The first 52 words of Torah explain all that goes on to make "Yom Echad" day unified/One, and the continued manifestation of the world. The "first" continuum is heaven and earth and this is connected to the movement called precession which is the slow wobble of the globe. This is called the axis or dragon/Teli in the teachings of the mekubalim/kabbalists. The orbital/revolutionary movement of the globe about the sun is connected to the continuum of time called the shana/year by the mekubalim and the omakim/depths Tohu and Bohu in the first paragraph of Torah. The rotational movement of the globe is connected to the realm called lev/heart(soul) and related to the three continuums of space; up/down,front/back,left/right and in Torah light and dark, day and night, evening and morning. These are so interconnected a mekubal may discover a different relationship with all this then the hinted at one stated here. this is not a dogma but an investigation which for a person whose life walk is the wisdom/Beauty way is part of initiation.
The mekubalim understood the walk of life as the aboriginal elders all around the world, as a cyclical dance rather then a linear construct as many people in the popular four continuum without a center worldview. This is why the hebrew sages made it part of the yearly cycle to read the Torah as a way of making sacred in our own lives this great circle. As an ongoing part of this blog for several years now we look at the Torah verse that corresponds by number with the hebrew calendar year. This is less meant as a prediction for the future year beginning in the fall but more to be understood as a tool to accessing the center of the wheel of life which is why we sing the five books in the yearly cycle. The 5772nd verse of torah could actually be the first verse since it begins with the word vayomer which means that the Source speaks or will speak, which itself is considered an ongoing act of creation and sustenance. The first three words are "Vayomer asterah panai" which could have several aspects of meaning as all Torah does. " Devarim/Deutoronomy chapter 32:20; "And he will say "I shall hide my face" is a usual translation although we may hear it saying that the in the scintillation of the creative vibration of the universe the Source is hidden so individuals may live and grow and act freely. The rest of the verse speaks of the acharitam/the "end of days" and the specific generation that will rediscover their true inner living faith/amen. It is an amazing verse and we may hear it unfolding even now in the circular dance of the Earth paradigm described above. The value of 72 - the "upcoming" hebrew year is the gematria(number value) for the word Chesed=lovingkindness. The tibetan/Asian year called water dragon begins during this year 5772 and this is a synchronicity with the "revealing of the Source" as connected to the Teli/axis or dragon in the books of the mekubalim. The now very popular Pueblo/Hopi and Mayan prophecies also connect to this unfolding. These are the upper waters of love that characterize the new "flood" that the sages said would cover the earth in our times.
