1. The document discusses the life and character of the Prophet Muhammad, describing how he was not known for politics, preaching, or oratory in his early life before age 40.
2. It notes that despite being unlettered, the eloquence of Muhammad's message amazed all of Arabia and attracted many followers, which is evidence of his prophethood.
3. The document argues that Muhammad's willingness to suffer hardship and persecution in spreading his message, as well as his belief in previous prophets, shows he was a true prophet, not a rival or impostor.
The document summarizes key figures and myths from ancient Greek culture relating to representations of women. It discusses goddesses like Aphrodite, Hera, and Artemis and their roles in ancient Greek myths. It also references archaeological sites and traditions that provide context on cultural depictions and worship of female figures dating back thousands of years, including sites in Crete, Cyprus, and Santorini. The document examines how written sources like Hesiod and visual arts helped shape understandings of women in ancient Greek society.
1) Herodotus provides an account of ancient Egypt based on his conversations with Egyptian priests in Memphis, Heliopolis, and Thebes.
2) The priests tell him that the Egyptians were the first to divide the year into twelve months and to assign names and dedications to the twelve major gods.
3) They also say that in ancient times, much of the land of Egypt was under water, but was reclaimed over many years as silt deposited by the Nile River raised the level of the land.
What separates Man from Angels is a fine line. Yet, that line, the peerage God inextricably bound into Man’s Soul, raised him above all in Creation, including the Heavenly Angels. To understand why God imbued our Souls with this ponderous legacy, why we must be vigilant to keep this incredible gift, why it incited a baleful Angelic Rebellion in Heaven, and why the Fallen Angels have ever after conspired the utter annihilation of Man, is the purpose behind this essay.
This is a study of Jesus being one of a kind in His speech. He made people listen for He was powerful in His presentation with such great parables and stories.
Exploring the mark of cain connection to the mark of the beastDavid G
In this essay we will study similarities that could bookend the Mark of Cain with the Mark of the Beast. To do that, we must establish what that Mark of Cain was, and that his Line survived the Flood. We also ponder the path to their salvation, a path of embracing the ethics of shepherd service founded in the Garden of Eden when our sovereignty passed from Angels to Man; ethics many of the Angels refused to embrace, not realizing the endless torment that choice would reap. We will study how they bound us in a beatific dystopia, ensnaring us by smoothly flipped oaths, and ever demand our obedient deference to a hijacked genealogy.

The document provides background information on the ancient Egyptians and their beliefs. It describes how the Egyptians had a sophisticated civilization and were divided into classes led by the king. It also explains that the Egyptians believed in a Supreme God and lesser gods/goddesses that represented aspects of nature. Their religion and its priest class played an important role in their society. The hieroglyphic writing system used by the Egyptians to record their history and religion is also described.
The document provides background information on the Magi who visited Jesus after his birth. It discusses traditions that the Magi were three kings from different parts of the ancient world. In reality, the Magi were a hereditary priesthood of the Medes and Persians with religious and political authority. They likely followed prophecies of Daniel, one of their own people, about a future Messiah. At the time of Jesus's birth, the Magi used the opportunity to possibly influence the succession of the Parthian king, and their visit to Herod alarmed him due to political tensions between Rome and Parthia. Their gifts to Jesus of gold, frankincense and myrrh were prophetic of his roles as king, priest and
1. Percy Cution was a villain sent by Hades to eliminate followers of Yeshua. He devised schemes to mislead people from their faith, such as an intoxicating serum.
2. Percy had some success getting many of Yeshua's disciples to doubt their faith. His next plan was to corrupt children and turn them against their parents.
3. However, many faithful followers remained strong in their faith. Parents and children reconciled, and Percy's plans failed. He was cast into final judgment as the faithful looked forward to living with God.
Exploring ancient christian mystery traditionsDavid G
Here we will explore the mystery traditions and connectivity between Venus, Mary the Magdalene, Jesus the Christ, royal marriage rules, fallen angels, the Nephilim, a hidden tradition of Mother Nature, and how all these things tie so tightly together.
I have researched the meaning behind the 5-pointed star, how Epochs are measured, why Venus was important (meditate on why Satanists hijacked and corrupted this symbol, just as they did the Lion of Judah constellation, remaking it Orion; depicting him killing that Lion), why royals were forbidden to breed with common people (a Nephilim promise to God in the days of Noah), Jesus the Christ's hidden marital status, his intimate relationship with Mary Magdalene, of her true ecclesiastic status and royal pedigree, and the secret Mother Goddess we worship alongside the Father as One Being. Yet, one needs also to consider the throbbing headache of trying to understand how all these seemingly disparate things so inseparably bind together, once we explore deeply enough to find their initial points of connection.
Hades was the Greek god of the underworld and the son of Cronus and Rhea. He abducted his niece Persephone, who became his wife. When Heracles descended into the underworld, Hades tried to prevent his entry but was wounded by an arrow. Hades' kingdom was the underworld, located in Avernus, where the dead entered by crossing the Acheron River with Charon and paying an obolus. Cerberus, the three-headed dog, guarded the other side of the river.
This document provides background on pre-Islamic Arabia and the city of Mecca. It describes Arabia as isolated and stagnant, with little civilization or development for thousands of years. Mecca itself was an impoverished village with few resources located in a barren valley. The most notable structure was the Ka'aba, a crude, open-air shrine housing pagan idols. The local tribe, the Quraysh, controlled Mecca but it had little significance until the rise of Islam under the prophet Muhammad in the 7th century.

Nostradamus was a 16th century French astrologer and physician famous for his prophecies. He wrote quatrains that some believe predicted major world events centuries later with remarkable accuracy, while others are more skeptical. His writings are open to interpretation and some events he described could potentially have multiple plausible explanations. Regardless of differing views on his abilities, Nostradamus remains a topic of widespread interest and debate today due to the scope and specificity of some of his predictions.
This document provides a summary of Daniel chapters 10-12 with a focus on Rome's rise to power. It discusses:
1) Rome beginning to exert influence in the region after the death of the King of the South left a vulnerable child on the throne of Egypt.

1) Mitar Tarabich, a 19th century Serbian peasant, experienced prophetic visions that were recorded by his godfather, a local priest. Some of Tarabich's predictions between the 19th-early 20th centuries came true, including events leading to a change in Serbian royal power and the outcomes of wars against Turkey and Austria-Hungary in WWI.
2) Tarabich also predicted the formation of Yugoslavia after WWI, but said the unity would not last due to rising hatred and bloodshed, which occurred in the 1920s-40s with the emergence of nationalist political parties in the new kingdom.
3) The accuracy of Tarabich's visions up to the first
This document provides biographical information about Michel de Nostradamus, a 16th century French astrologer and physician famous for his book of prophecies called Les Propheties. It discusses that he was born in 1503 in France to converted Jewish parents. He obtained medical degrees and fought plague outbreaks. In the 1540s, he began having visions that he wrote down in poetic quatrains. His first collection of prophecies was published in 1555 as The True Centuries and included predictions for events up until 3797. The document provides examples of predictions from his works that were later fulfilled. It also discusses his ritual practices for divination and his warnings about interpreting his works.
The document discusses the controversy around the undisclosed third secret of Fatima. It was revealed to three shepherd children in Fatima, Portugal in 1917 by the Virgin Mary. Sr. Lucia later revealed there were three parts to the secret, but only two were disclosed. The third secret was said to foretell a crisis within the Catholic Church and a "terrible punishment" if its requests were not obeyed. Several popes since then have refused to reveal the full third secret, fueling ongoing debate and speculation about its contents.
The apparition of the Virgin Mary at La Salette in 1846 delivered a lengthy prophecy containing warnings of future events, including wars, famines, plagues, persecution of the Church, the rise of the Antichrist, and environmental disasters. She called on the faithful to repent and pray for God's mercy. Some of the predicted events, such as World War I and II, have already come to pass. The prophecy concludes by stating the Church will be in eclipse until Christ's second coming and calls the faithful to remain strong in their faith during the coming trials.
The Mayan calendar predicted that the world would undergo major changes by December 21, 2012. The Mayans used a complex calendar system of 260-day cycles and 365-day years to track astronomical events and seasons.

2. Hindu prophecies foretell the arrival of Kalki Avatar to end the current Kali Yuga age of decline and restore purity. Buddhist prophecies predict the incarnation of Maitreya Buddha after major geological changes, during whose reign humanity will attain salvation.
3. Ancient texts provide details on the social conditions and signs that will precede these prophesied events, including the rise of immorality and decline of dharma according to Hindu scriptures.
Este documento presenta un resumen del Mensaje de Navidad de 1966-1967 de Samael Aun Weor. Explica que en el principio, el Padre le dijo al Espíritu Santo que fecundara a la Gran Madre para crear la vida.

"El cuerpo de Dios es el Cosmos. En este cuerpo rige la misma ley que
en el cuerpo humano... El hombre para vivir necesita de su estómago, de sus
pulmones, de su cerebro, etc. Las células del cerebro, indudablemente son más
nobles que las del estómago. Pero ¿qué sería de las células cerebrales, si las
estomacales no funcionaran perfectamente? ¿Qué sería del corazón si los
riñones no cumplieran con su tarea de purificar la sangre?
The document discusses ancient Greek oracles and methods of divination. It describes several major oracles including Delphi (associated with Apollo), Dodona (associated with Zeus), and Epidaurus (associated with Asclepius the god of healing). The oracle priests and priestesses would use various techniques like inhaling vapors, dreaming, or interpreting natural phenomena to transmit prophecies. While oracles' messages were often vague, they were widely trusted and consulted about important matters like war, marriage, and medicine. Famous myths and figures like Oedipus and Croesus illustrate oracles' predictions coming true.
This document provides a summary of several creation myths from different cultures and religions around the world. It discusses myths about the creation of man to please the gods from Mesopotamia, the creation of the earth and importance of agriculture in Babylonian and Greek myths, and myths about the structure of society in Indian and Chinese cultures. The myths highlight both similarities and differences between world religions and how they explain the origins of humanity and the natural world.

The document provides a summary of the origins of science in ancient Greece. It discusses how the Greeks' contact with Persia through military campaigns stimulated scientific and intellectual activity. This led to the establishment of the Museum in Alexandria, which cultivated knowledge through experimentation and mathematical discussion, and is considered the origin of science. It also describes how Greek mythology and religious beliefs began to break down as philosophers questioned traditional explanations and discoveries revealed natural phenomena had rational explanations rather than supernatural causes. This transition was met with resistance at first but eventually led to the demise of the old Greek religion.
1) The ancient Greek religion was declining as philosophers and historians began to doubt religious traditions and myths in light of new scientific discoveries.
2) Alexander the Great's conquest of the Persian Empire exposed many Greeks to new cultures and knowledge, stimulating intellectual activity.
3) Alexander established the Museum in Alexandria to cultivate new knowledge through experimentation and mathematical discussion, marking the origin of science.
This document is a lengthy essay analyzing how religious and political institutions have historically used fear, hope, and the unknown to control populations. It discusses how defining heaven and hell as absolute locations helped establish a "Great Chain of Being" that hierarchical ordered all of society. Religious leaders positioned themselves at the top by claiming a monopoly on interpreting God's word. The essay then provides an imaginative allegory comparing this system of control to elements of Christmas traditions like Santa Claus, reindeer, elves, etc. to metaphorically represent the roles of religious figures and institutions.
This document provides an overview of ancient Egyptian beliefs about the afterlife and future existence as understood from their religious texts. It discusses their core belief in a single, supreme God who was self-existent, eternal and omnipotent. While Egyptians also developed polytheistic ideas over time, the concept of a singular God who created all things was never lost. The document examines what little is known about the origins of this core belief and analyzes the meaning of the Egyptian word for God, "neter". It provides examples from early Egyptian religious texts that reference this supreme deity.
This document discusses concepts of fate and predestination in various cultures and religions throughout history. It examines the strong belief in fate seen in Greek myths like Oedipus, where characters' attempts to avoid their fated destiny only serve to fulfill the prophecy. The Greeks personified fate as the Moerae or Fates. Norse mythology also featured the Norns, who similarly determined individuals' lives. Many cultures viewed certain events like wars or deaths as inevitable and preordained. While some modern people still say phrases referring to fate, the concept of free will complicates the relationship between fate and human decisions. Divination was both a way to learn one's fate and try to change it, depending on the culture. Overall
Philemon and Baucis were an elderly married couple who lived in poverty but with great virtue. When the gods Jupiter and Mercury, disguised as travelers, came to their village looking for hospitality, all the other residents turned them away rudely. However, Philemon and Baucis welcomed the travelers into their small home and shared what little food and provisions they had. To honor their guests, they planned to slaughter their only goose but it escaped. The gods then revealed themselves and rewarded the kind couple's hospitality by transforming them into intertwining trees and making them guardians of the local temple.
This document discusses several figures from Greek mythology and history, along with some of the legends surrounding them. It describes how Hercules achieved his famous twelve labors, including strangling snakes as an infant. It also mentions legends about Alexander the Great, such as taming a wild horse and cutting the Gordian knot. The document outlines exploits attributed to other legendary heroes like Digenis Akritas and saints including St. George's slaying of a dragon.
The document describes the plague that struck Athens during the Peloponnesian War. It struck in the summer of 430 BC and took a terrible form with severe symptoms. People died rapidly and bodies were left unburied in the streets. Lawlessness spread as people no longer followed religious or legal customs due to the scale of the calamity. Seeing the unpredictability of life and death, many people abandoned morality and restraint to indulge in pleasure while they could.
1) Epictetus was born a slave in Hierapolis, Phrygia in around 50 CE. He was owned by Epaphroditus, a powerful freedman and secretary to Emperor Nero.
2) As a slave, Epictetus' life was one of hardship and deprivation. However, he studied Stoic philosophy and became a renowned philosopher and teacher in his own right.
3) Epictetus believed that true freedom and virtue lay not in external things like wealth or status, but in one's own will and character. He was able to rise above his circumstances through philosophy and by distinguishing between what is and isn't within our control.
Information Technology - The First Two Million Years (2019 Edition)Jamie Stantonian
This the story of how we've have transmitted, stored and processed information since before we were human. Beginning with embodied knowledge, body decoration, language, myth, writing, print and eventually electronic media it explores how each era has dramatically altered the fabric of human society, the nature of consciousness, and ultimately the physical world itself. It spans the period of about 2 million years BC (roughly the discovery of fire) and goes to the late 19th century. The 20th and 21st centuries and the implications for the future will be tackled in an expanded presentation in the near future.
Do we really want the Fisher Kings to Return?Hugh Colmer
The Inca await the return of the Amaru, Mayans await the return of Quetzalcotl, Britain awaits the return Arthur Pendragon, Egyptians await the return of Thoth, and many Christians await the Second Coming of the Messiah. If they realized that they all await the return of the same god would they be willing to die for them? The gods await humanity realizing their Christ Consciousness.
Ancient Egypt had a thriving civilization along the Nile River from around 3000-2500 BC. The Egyptians built massive pyramids, including the Great Pyramids of Giza, to serve as tombs for pharaohs. Everyday life was organized around religion, with gods like Ra and rituals like mummification of the dead. The absolute monarchy was ruled by pharaohs considered divine beings, while hieroglyphics and art provided insights into Egyptian culture, mythology, and way of life.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

1. 1
THE OLD PROPHECY
1. Prophecy as a Historical Force
PROPHECIES are memories of possible futures, echoing across time and space.
Prophecy is a proven talent of the human mind --- one that baffles our notions of time,
fate, and free will. The future is revealed to us through dreams, drugs, religious
epiphany, magical rituals and the mantic arts. If a predicted event does not occur, then
the seer has misinterpreted the psychic impression or was hallucinating. But false
prophecies do not disprove or discredit the many that have been fulfilled. Indeed, many
major events have been foretold with astonishing accuracy. Prophecy has exerted a
powerful influence on the course of history. Many great persons, such as Alexander
the Great, Julius and Augustus Caesar, and George Washington, were gifted with
prophecy.
Hundreds of ancient and modern prophets have given accounts of their visions. Many
of them are concerned with global catastrophes in the "near future". Although no
prophet has been 100% accurate, many of the seers represented here have made
short-and long-term predictions that were fulfilled during and after their lifetimes.
Considering the established credibility of these visionaries, their warnings of impending
doom deserve our close attention. It behooves us to know the signs of the times, to
recognize the shadows that great events cast before them. Prophecies can help guide
some of us out of harm’s way when "insanity will attack the spirit of man and
unrestrained hate shall rage." In any event, with grace, courage and love, some of us
will survive to live in peace at long last.
Time is running out for these prophecies to be fulfilled or annulled. It is not too late to
heed the warnings and prevent some disasters. The outcome of events can be
modified by right action, unless and until it is too late. Prophecies also can be
misunderstood and misused, and yet prove to be historically effective, though not in the
ways we might expect. Prophecies often tend to be self-fulfilling, a kind of deathwish
that derives power from feedback between people and circumstances. The Delphic
Oracle of Apollo is an excellent example of this process.

1a. The Delphic Oracle ~
The utterances of the Greek Oracles of Dodona and of Apollo at Delphi were gospel
in their time, and guided the course of Greek and Roman history for several centuries.
The Delphic Oracle was located on Mount Parnassus. There the virgin priestesses,
called Pythia, uttered ecstatic prophecies during an elaborate ritual that included
chewing the leaf of a sacred bay tree and drinking from the holy fountain Kassotis that
flowed from Omphalos, "the navel of the the earth." The Pythia sat on a tripod over a
fissure in the cavern Adyton, and breathed the vapors arising from the abyss. The
fumes induced a trance in them, and they proceeded to pronounce (or more often
mumble incoherently) messages that were interpreted by attendant priests, who
conveyed their translations to the supplicants. Socrates declared:
"Such prophecy is akin to madness, but it is a madness which is the

THE OLD PROPHECY
special gift of heaven, and the source of the chiefest blessings among
men. For prophecy is a madness, and the prophetess at Delphi and the
priestesses of Dodona, when out of their senses have conferred great
benefits to Hellas, both in public and private life, but when their senses
were few or none."
The Oracle at Delphi was enriched with gifts from
grateful supplicants who worshipped and
propitiated Apollo and his oracle with beautiful
temples and fountains, a theater and stadium,
thousands of marble, bronze and gold statues, and
many other gifts of exquisite workmanship. The
Roman author Cicero wrote,
"Never could the oracle of Delphi have been
so overwhelmed with significant presents
from all kings and nations had not the ages
proven the truth of its oracle."
Heraclitus wrote, "The god of Delphi neither revealeth, nor concealeth, but hinteth."
However, while most of its advice was given in ambiguous terms, the Delphic Oracle
also gave exact answers on occasion. Both types of response were exemplified in the
case of Croesus, King of Lydia (6th century BC). The immensely wealthy monarch
was concerned about the threat posed by Cyrus the Elder, King of Persia and
Babylon. Seeking divine counsel, King Croesus tested several of the most eminent
oracles of his time:
Zeus Ammon in Libya,
Dudyma near Miletus,
Amphiarus and Trophonia in Boeotia,
Zeus Dodona in Epirus, and
Abae and Delphi in Phoeis.
Only the Delphic Oracle correctly answered the test question posed
by Croesus: What was King Croesus engaged in at the moment of the query (which
was on the hundredth day since they had departed from Sardis)?
The Phytia answered thus:
"I can count the sands and I can measure the Ocean, I have ears for the
silent, and know what the dumb man meaneth. Lo, on my sense there
striketh the smell of shell-covered tortoise, boiling now in fire with the
flesh of lamb in a cauldron, brass in the vessel below and brass the cover
of it."
The messengers returned to Sardis and reported the Pythia’s answer, which was
completely correct and satisfactory to Croesus. The king then made a huge sacrificial
offering to Apollo and presented the Oracle with many priceless gifts. He asked,
"Whether Croesus should march against the Persians, and if so, whether
he should join himself with any army of men as his friends."
The Oracle replied,
"After crossing the Halys, Croesus will destroy a great empire."
Croesus also inquired if he would have a long reign, to which the Pythia answered,
"Nay, when a mule becometh king of Medes, flee, soft-soled Lydian, by
www.gftaognosticaespiritual.org
GRAN BIBLIOTECA VIRTUAL ESOTERICA ESPIRITUAL
3. 3
THE OLD PROPHECY
pebbly Hermus, and stay not, nor feel
shame to be a coward."
This answer did not please Croesus, but since it
seemed impossible for a mule to be king, he did
not worry about it. Finally, he asked about his deaf-
mute son. The Oracle replied:
"Son of Lydia, ruler of men, Croesus, thou
prince of fools, desire not to hear in thy halls
the voice long prayed for of a son speaking.
He will speak first on a day that is not propitious."
This last answer disappointed Croesus, but encouraged by the first, he formed an
alliance with Sparta and mounted an army against Cyrus the Great. Croesus crossed
the river Halys to invade Cappadocia, but withdrew to his own capitol at Sardis after a
fierce battle at Pteria. Croesus then disbanded his army, but Cyrus followed him with
the Persian army and besieged Sardis, which soon fell.
Pythia’s prophecy thus became clear. Croesus did indeed destroy a great empire ---
his own. And a "mule" did become monarch of Media insofar as Cyrus was born of
mixed parentage, as are mules; his mother was a princess of Media, and his father
was a Persian. The third prophecy was fulfilled when a Persian soldier attacked
Croesus without recognizing him. Croesus’ deaf-mute son suddenly cried out, "Man, do
not kill Croesus!"
Soon after becoming Emperor of Rome in 54 AD, Nero killed his mother, then went
vacationing in Greece. When he visited the Oracle at Delphi, the Pythiashouted angrily
at Nero:
"Your presence here outrages the god you seek. Go back, matricide! The
number 73 marks the hour of your downfall!"
Nero was infuriated and had the Pythia buried alive in the sacred cavern, along with
the bodies of the temple priests after their hands and feet had been chopped off.
Nero thought the number 73 would be his age at death. He was only 30 years old then,
so he did not worry about it. Actually, the number related to Galba, who was 73 years
old when he succeeded Nero in 68 AD.
Before he came to rule the Roman Empire, Hadrian visited the Delphic Oracle and
drank from the sacred fountain Kassotis. Thus he learned firsthand of his destiny. After
he reached the throne, Hadrian ordered the fountain to be plugged up to prevent
anyone else from getting the same idea from the same source.
Emperor Julian had the blockage removed during his reign (361-363 AD) because he
believed it should be available to everyone. He said:
"Through the Oracles of Apollo, the greater part of civilization had come
into being because they had revealed the will of the gods in the sphere of
politics, as well as religion, which they regulated wisely for those who
kept their advice."
The Delphic Oracle endured until 390 AD, when Emperor Theodosius closed the

temple; his successor, Arcadius, demolished it.

1b. Egyptian Prophecies ~
The priests of ancient Egypt were powerful magicians who practiced the mantic arts for
the kings and pharaohs and accurately predicted the course of Egypt’s dynastic
history. The rulers also occasionally received advice directly from the gods.
For example, about 1420 BC, when Thutmose IV was still a prince and had uncertain
prospects for rulership, the god Harmachis-Chepera Re-Tenu appeared to him in a
dream and promised that if Thutmose would clear away the sand that had accumulated
around the Sphinx (the image of the god), he would rule over both North and South
Egypt --- the entire land. Thutmose immediately set men to work at the task, and
subsequently enjoyed the fulfillment of the god’s promise.
Similarly, it was truly prophesied to Nut-Amon (circa 670 BC):
"All the land of the south is thine, and thou shalt have dominion over all
the land of the north. The White Crown and the Red Crown shall adorn
thine head. The length and breadth of the land shall be given unto thee,
and the god Amon, the only god, shall be with thee."
The birth of Jesus Christ was foretold almost 2,000 years before the event
by Chechepetresonbu, an Egyptian priest at Heliopolis during the reign of Sesostris
II (1906-1887 BC) had a prophetic vision:
"The ideal ruler for whose advent he longs --- he brings cooling to the
flames. It is said that he is the shepherd of all men. There is no evil in his
heart... Where is he today? Behold, his might is not seen."
Nectanebo, the last king of Egypt, also was a prophet, astrologer, and Hermetic
magus who used his skills wisely to prevent his assassination and to win the wars he
fought. Eventually, however, he abdicated and left Egypt for Macedonia because the
gods no longer would cooperate in his magical operations. In Macedonia, he earned a
good reputation as an astrologer. He was consulted by King Phillip while Olympia was
pregnant with Alexander. Nectaneboconstructed a natal horoscope for the most
auspicious moment of birth, and insisted to Olympia that she must not allow the child
to be born until the moment he specified. At that time the earth quaked, the sky tore
with lightning, and thunder sounded like cosmic drum rolls saluting the event. As the
infant gave his first cry, Nectanebo announced:
"O Queen, now thou hast given
birth to a governor of the world."

1c. Alexander the Great ~
www.gftaognosticaespiritual.org
GRAN BIBLIOTECA VIRTUAL ESOTERICA ESPIRITUAL
5. 5
THE OLD PROPHECY
The night before Queen Olympia and King Phillip met as newlyweds in the bridal
chamber, Olympia dreamed that a flash of lightning discharged within her womb with a
thunderous crash. A sheet of fire erupted and spread flaming in all directions, then
faded away. Phillip later dreamed that he was sealing up his wife’s womb with the
image of a lion. The sage Aristander of Telesmus interpreted these signs to mean
that Olympia was pregnant, for we do not seal up anything empty, and that the son she
bore would be courageous, as a lion symbolizes.
Alexander had many precognitive dreams that benefited his career. The most famous
of his dreams occurred while he laid siege to the city of Tyre. Alexander dreamed that
he had captured a satyr dancing on a shield. Aristander interpreted the dream as an
acronym of the Greek words "Sa Tyros", meaning, "Tyre is yours." After a seven month
siege, it became his prize. He also had a dream in which he saw Heracles reach out
and call from the walls of Tyre. Thus inspired, Alexander won the city on the next day.
When Alexander’s friend Ptolemaeus was wounded in battle by a poison arrow, death
seemed imminent. Alexander dreamed that he was watching his wife Olympia feed a
fish with roots of strange plants. The fish showed Alexander where the plants could be
found. When Alexander awoke he searched out the plants and administered them to
Ptolemaeus, who recovered. Later he became Pharoah of Egypt.
Having conquered Egypt, Alexander wanted to build a great city, to be called
Alexandria. Again he had a prophetic dream in which an ancient sage quoted certain
passages in Homer’s writings referring to Pharos. Alexander went quickly to Pharos,
where he found an excellent site with outstanding advantages. Alexander ordered that
a city be mapped out to fit the site. The Macedonians had no chalk with them so they
marked the area with barley. Suddenly, countless flocks of birds of all species flew to
the place and ate every grain of barley. This amazing omen disturbed Alexander, but
his soothsayer told him it meant that Alexandria would be a nurse and feeder of great
men of every race. The library of Alexandria became the greatest in the ancient
world.

1d. The Caesars ~
All of the mantic arts, and especially astrology, were widely practiced in ancient Rome.
Several astrologers accurately predicted the destinies of the Caesarian dynasty and
other emperors. The Romans took dreams so seriously that the citizens of Rome were
legally bound to report to the Senate any dreams that could be connected with the
security and destiny of the empire.
The astrologer Tyrasyllus accurately figured that Claudius would die when he was
"63 years, 63 days, 63 watches, 63 hours old" on October 13, 54 AD. Claudius was
murdered by his wife Agrippina, who fed him a dish of poisoned mushrooms when she
learned that he might not name Nero as his heir. He died the next day, on October 13.
Claudius and Nero frequently consulted the astrologer Barbillius for advice. He had
www.gftaognosticaespiritual.org
GRAN BIBLIOTECA VIRTUAL ESOTERICA ESPIRITUAL
6. 6
THE OLD PROPHECY
predicted that Claudius would die in the 14th year of his reign, and he told Agrippina
that Nero would reign. "But," he warned her, "if he comes to the throne, he will kill his
mother." Her lifelong ambition was to make her son Emperor of Rome; thus she
replied, "If he but reigns, I do not care. Let him kill me." And he did.
Perhaps the most famous Roman prophecy was the warning, "Beware the Ides of
March" (March 15) given to Julius Caesar by the seer Spurinna Vestritiusduring a
religious sacrifice. The night before his assassination, Caesar’s wife Calpurnia dreamt
that the turret of her house crumbled and that the corpse of Caesar was carried into
their home, and she wept over him. In the morning, she pleaded with Caesar not to go
to the Senate, but he would not heed her despite his own suspicions. Brutus argued
that a great throng was awaiting his arrival at the Senate and he must not disappoint
them. On his way there he met the seerSpurinna and said to him, "The Ides of march
are here without any calamity." Spurinna replied, "Yes, they are here, but they have not
yet gone." Caesar died that day in 44 BC.
Augustus was Julius Caesar’s adopted son and successor. When Augustus went to
Philippi in 42 BC to revenge the murder of Julius by Brutus and company, he was too
weak to walk and had to be carried in a litter. Cassius’ forces overran Augustus’
camp and captured many soldiers. But Augustus had been carried away by his doctor
and hidden in a marsh until the battle ended. The doctor swore that he had been
awakened by a dream telling him to remove Augustus.
The Roman historian Dion Cassius recorded the following prophecy by the astrologer-
senator Nigidius Figulus concerning Augustus Caesar, the son ofOctavius:
Scarcely was the boy born when Nigidius Figulus prophesied for him the
absolute empire of the world. Among his contemporaries, this prophet
was held to be the wisest in the knowledge of the stars and
constellations... When he saw that Octavius, because of the birth of his
son, was somewhat late in getting to the Curia.. He came towards him
and asked him why he was so tardy. When he heard the reason, he
announced:
"You have given us a master."
Octavius, depressed by this announcement [in those days many Romans
still thought they were a democratic nation], wished to have the child
slain. But the prophet advised him against it, saying:
"It were impossible for anything of the sort to happen to this
child."
Later, when Octavius was leading an army in Thrace, he consulted a
local oracle concerning his son. As the priest poured wine over the altar,
a flame burst forth, leapt to the roof of the temple, and into the sky. The
priests told Octavius that such an omen had occurred only once before --
- toAlexander the Great during a sacrifice.
While still a young man and before rising to power, Augustus consulted the
sage Theogenes for his horoscope. When Augustus told his birth time to Theogenes,
the man knelt before the youth and forecast his ascent to imperial power. The
horoscope so impressed Augustus that he had it published and minted a silver coin

with the sigil of Capricorn, his Sun sign.
To express appreciation for his great good fortune, Augustus built a temple of peace.
He consulted the Delphic Oracle, asking how long the temple would stand and peace
last. The Oracle answered, "Until a virgin gives birth to a child and yet remains a
virgin." As that seemed impossible, Augustus thought the oracle was predicting eternal
peace. He dedicated the temple with a tablet inscribed "Templum pacis aeterna." But at
the birth of Christ, the temple collapsed "without warning or discoverable cause."
At the same time Christ was born, Augustus Caesar was consulting the Tiburtine
Sibyl to ask if he should accept the title "God of the nations" which the Senate wanted
to confer on him. While the Sibyl consulted her sacred books, a brilliant meteor flashed
across the sky. The Sibyl took the celestial omen as her answer, saying:
"Look! It is a sign of the future that is revealed to you. One world is
ending, and another is beginning. A child has just been born, who is the
king of future millennia, the true god of the world. He is of humble birth
and of an obscure race. His divinity is unrealized; when he at last makes
himself known, he will be persecuted. He will work miracles, he will be
accused of trafficking with evil spirits, but I see him victor in the end over
death, rising from the place where his murderers entombed him. He will
reunite all nations."

2. The Sibylline Oracles ~
The ancient prophecies known as the Sibylline Oracles or Sibyllae are attributed to
divinely inspired seeresses who lived in the Greek colonies in the 8th century BC. The
earliest reference to a Sibyl was by the philosopher Heraclitus (ca. 500 BC):
"The Sibyl with frenzied lips, uttering words mirthless, unembellished,
unperfumed, penetrates through the centuries by the powers of the
gods."
The Sibyllae were presented to Tarquin I (The Proud), the fifth king of Rome, by
the Sibyl of Cumae in 615 BC. She offered him nine books foretelling the destiny of
the Romans with instructions to be followed so that the predicted events would follow
their course. The Sibyl demanded a payment of 300 gold philippi, a large sum, but
Tarquin refused the offer. The Sibyl then burned three volumes of the set, and again
requested 300 philippi for the remaining books. Tarquin again declined the offer,
whereupon the Sibyl burned three more of the books, and again demanded the same
price. King Tarquin was thus convinced of the value of the books, and paid for the
remaining three volumes. Only fragments of one book survive to this day.
The Sibyllae were very popular with the Romans, who installed them in the temple
of Jupiter Capitolinus, guarded by a special priesthood. The Sibyllae were consulted
during crises of the Republic and upon the appearance of unusual omens. The books
were destroyed in 83 BC when Rome burned during a civil war. The Senate assigned
three senators to reconstruct the remaining book as much as possible. Emperor
Augustus later collected all available Sibylline verses from Greece and other Roman

colonies and edited them into about 200 spurious oracles. The books were destroyed
by the Vandal General Flavius Stilicho "in order to cause the ruin of the Empire by
getting rid of its guarantee of eternal life." (3-6)
The Sibylline Oracles were well respected by the Jewish and early Christian Fathers,
who quoted them frequently and even published their own revised editions containing
Judaeo-Christian prophecies and teachings for dissemination amongst the pagans.
The Sibylline Oracles (1:381-388) include this prediction of the birth of Christ:
"And then the child of the great
God to men
Shall come incarnate, being
fashioned like
The mortals on the earth. And he
shall bear
Four vowels, and the
consonants in Him
Are twice told; and the whole
sum I name:
For eight ones, and as many
tens to these,
And yet eight hundred will the
name reveal
To men who are given up to
unbelief."
In the Greek language in which this prophecy was written, Jesus is spelled Iota, Eta,
Sigma, Omicron, Upsilon, Sigma. The gematrial values are:
Iota, 10 (vowel 1)
Eta, 8 (vowel 2)
Sigma, 200 (consonant)
Omicron, 70 (vowel 3)
Upsilon, 400 (vowel 4, line
384)
Sigma, 200 (consonant,
"twice told", line 385)
total, 888 (lines 386 and
387)
The Tiburtine Sibyl, composed ca. 500 AD, includes a description of the
legendary Final Emperor, who will be succeeded by the Antichrist:
"At that time the Prince of Iniquity who will be called Antichrist will arise
from the tribe of Dan. He will be the Son of Perdition, the head of pride,
the master of error, the fullness of malice who will overturn the world and
do wonders and great signs through dissimulation. He will delude many
by magic art so that fire will seem to come down from heaven. The years
will be shortened like months, the months like weeks, the weeks like
days, the days like hours, and an hour like a moment. The unclean
nations that Alexander, the Indian king, shut up will arise from the North.
These are the 22 realms whose number is like the sand of the sea. When
the king of the Romans hears of this he will call his army together and

vanquish and utterly destroy them.
After this he will come to Jerusalem, and having put off the diadem from
his head and laid aside the whole imperial garb, he will hand over the
empire of the Christians to God the Father and to Jesus Christ His Son.
When the Roman Empire shall have ceased, then the Antichrist will be
openly revealed and will sit in the House of the Lord in Jerusalem. While
he is reigning, two very famous men, Elijah and Enoch, will go forth to
announce the coming of the Lord. Antichrist will kill them and after three
days they will be raised up by the Lord. Then there will be a great
persecution, such as has not been before nor shall be thereafter. The
Lord will shorten those days for the sake of the elect, and
the Antichrist will be slain by the power of God through Michael the
Archangel on the Mount of Olives"
The Vaticinium Erythrian Sibyl was composed in the 12th century. Part III contains
this Catholic Sibyl’s view of apocalypse:
" There will arise another king from Heliopolis and he will wage war
against the king from the East and kill him. And he will grant a tax-
exemption to entire countries for three years and six months, and the
earth will bring forth its fruit, and there is none to eat them. And there will
come the ruler of perdition, he who is changed, and will smite and kill
him. And he will do signs and wonders on earth. He will turn the sun into
darkness and the moon into blood. And after that the springs and rivers
will dry up, and the Nile will be transformed into blood. And then there will
appear two men who did not come to know the experience of death,
Enoch and Elijah, and they will wage war upon the ruler of perdition. And
he will say: "My time has come," and he will be angered and slay them.
And then he who was crucified on the wood of the cross will come from
the heavens, like a great and flashing star, and he will resurrect those two
men. And he who was hung on the cross will wage war with the son of
perdition and will slay him and all his host. Then the land of Egypt will
burn twelve cubits deep, and the land will shout to God: "Lord, I am a
virgin." And then the son of God will come with great power and glory to
judge the nine generations. And then Christ will rule, the son of the living
God, and his holy angels. Amen, so be it...
"The Last Judgment will follow the Abomination. Signs will precede.
There will be four kinds of unusual color in the elements and a change in
the course in the heavenly bodies. There will be a celestial sign in that
the air will appear at times yellow, at times pitch-black, now green, now
clear red. Apollo will be split, now in ten, now in four, now in two parts;
the moon will run together with the sun. Those dwelling on the earth will
be struck with fear when they see the stars all bloody. At the same time
the earth will well up in different places, and there will be a fearful sign of
commotion. There will be collision of kingdoms, seizure of thrones,
earthquakes, and famines. Out of desire for food mothers will abase their
sons and daughters in debauchery... All these things are indications of
the Abomination for whom there is no rule.

"When three signs come the inhabitants of the earth should know that he
is near. In the city of Aeneas a 100-year old woman will bear twins with
the aid of the faithless. A burning river will issue from Mt. Aetna and
devour the inhabitants. After this two peaks will crash together in the
snowy mountains, the earth there will be opened in an abyss, and a
snowy mist will ascend to heaven.
"After these things, there will be a gathering together of many nations
bestial in their manner of life and a division of the world into ten scepters.
The vilest forms of copulation will precede pregnancies, the worst of all
being that of the Abomination. He will then kill many kings whom he has
put under his yoke. The Spouse will be silent, the cock will grow hoarse,
and there will be abuse of the Lamb. Heaven, the sun, and the elements
will seem to be a testimony to the Abomination in that he will do wonders,
make the stars dark, weaken the perfect, regain the Jews. All this will
happen so that he may renew what was old and cast out what has been
renewed...
"The Last Judgment will be imminent; the signs will precede it. The sun
will be frequently eclipsing and stretching out in vast fashion will destroy.
The Euphrates will be dried up to a mere trickle; Aetna will be laid open
on two sides, Avernus will roar, and three parts of the inhabitants of Sicily
will perish. Pharos will swell up most horribly and flood the nearby areas.
After this the sea will sink to the depths and the fish gathered together will
give forth a roar. Then the heavens will be opened in four parts, there will
be thunder, and the inhabitants of the earth will hear the threats of
Judgment. Ineffable things will blare forth on the trumpet. Blameless
heralds will announce the destruction of all things, saying: "Let there be
humility and repentance!"...
"Then all the kings and princes will appear and behold the Lamb who
pays back all men upon his throne of terror. No discrimination of wealthy
or poor will take place there, but only the weighing of merits. Then crimes
will be made evident, fear and trembling and horror of the abyss set out
for punishment will strike all so that there will be weeping and gnashing of
teeth. They will stretch out their hands in prayer, but the lamb will be
inflexible; he will be fearful in punishing. In his sight there will be lightning
and thunder, merit along with sins. Blessing will be on his right; curses
will come from his left. He will judge the good and evil to lift the former on
high and allow hell to swallow the latter to the fate of the demons. This is
the end of the book of the Erythraean Sibyl of Babylon."
Much of what little remains of the Sibylline Oracles exists in fragments. The following
are most apocalyptic and well written:
"And then will God speak with a mighty voice
To all rude people of an empty mind;
And judgments from the mighty God shall
come

Upon them, and they shall be destroyed
By an immortal hand. And fiery swords
Shall fall from heaven on earth, and mighty
lights
Shall come down flaming in the midst of men.
And mother earth shall be tossed in those
days
By an immortal hand...
Then shall all the elements of all the world
Be desolate, air, earth, sea, flaming fire,
And sky and night, and all days to one fire
And to one barren shapeless mass to come.
For all the luminous stars shall fall from
heaven;
No more will winged birds fly through the air,
Nor footsteps be on ear; for all wild beasts
Shall perish, voices of men, beasts and birds
Shall be no more. The world, being
disarranged,
Shall hear no useful sound, but the deep sea
Shall echo back a mighty threatening voice,
And swimming, trembling creatures of the sea
Shall all die; and no longer on the waves
Will sail a freighted ship. The earth shall
groan
Bloodstained by wars; and all the souls of
men
Shall gnash their teeth --- the souls of lawless
men,
Wasted by lamentations and by fear,
By hunger, thirst and pestilence and murders -
--
And they shall call it beautiful to die,
And death will flee from them, for death no
more
Nor night shall give them rest. And many
things
Will they in vain ask God who rules on high,
And then he will turn openly his face
Away from them... All these things to my mind
did God reveal
And all that has been spoken by my mouth
Will be fulfilled...
No more will treacherous gold and silver be
Nor earthly wealth, nor toilsome servitude,
But one vast friendship and one mode of life
Will be with glad people, and all things
Will common be, and equal light of life.
And wickedness from earth in the vast sea
