My little career in astrology has been mostly about exploring the theory that the craft has been, and continues to be used by the upper echelons of power to ritually time events. I've mostly looked at this through the lens of my own cultural milieu, which is the realm of the USA, the UK, and … Continue reading A Bit More on the Astrology of the Arab League
More "high strangeness" from the astrological world this last week has prompted a new blog entry. On 3/22/21, a young man went on a shooting rampage in Boulder, Colorado. We now know the person is of Syrian birth, but grew up in the USA. We also know he is a bit of a loner, a … Continue reading The Ritual Date of 3/22
It's that time of year again for "the big game," and also time for me to post more fodder about the deliberate standards of USA football. Will Tom Brady win? I could care less. But I am interested in how sacred measures are snuck into our everyday lives. For instance, did you ever wonder why … Continue reading The Sacred Dimensions of USA Football: Stupor Bowl 55 Edition
Occursion Media has published its first newspaper. It is based here in Idaho Falls, and is the vision of my friend Terri Nelson Ireland, proprietor of the Healing Hands Metaphysical Store. It is called the Metaphysical Times: The Imbolc 2021 issue. In this venture, I am doing the layout and design, and will contribute an … Continue reading Our First Issue of the “Metaphysical Times” Has Hit the Streets
Many of us in the geek continuum have been excited to learn about a giant steel monolith being discovered in the Utah desert. It gives me chills, though only because I, as many others, believe Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey" is the best movie ever made, and has encoded within it some highly important ideas … Continue reading HAL 9000, Kubrick & Clarke: Some Astrolodyssey in the cut?
by Ed Kohout This is a reprint of something I wrote 5 years ago, back when I could write whatever I wanted. I want to dedicate this to Samuel F. Reynolds, a fellow astrologer who is also born on the magical "11/22" date, and who has always impressed me with his professionalism in the craft. … Continue reading The Popes, the Jesuits, and … Astrology? (A reprint from 2015 about November 22)
If you have read Parts I and II, you are now ready to digest the most brazen part of the 9/11 fraud: Building 7. I find it interesting that, all these years later, most folks I talk to don't know about the collapse of Building 7 on 9/11. "There was a third building that collapsed, … Continue reading The Metonic Return of 9/11 – Part III
In Part I, I laid out some astrological and astro-numerological elements of the 9/11 event that I thought were both interesting and probably unknown to researchers. 9/11 was a crime, and as such, any good investigator would have to look at the means, motive, and opportunity of any possible suspects to determine who might be … Continue reading The Metonic Return of 9/11 – Part II
It's hard to believe that 19 years have elapsed since the that day Building 7 collapsed for no good reason. So, I thought I'd refresh our memories on the astrological and astro-numeric pseudo-coincidences of that day, mostly because this stuff is yet to be explained properly, but also for the reason that some new "surprise" … Continue reading The Metonic Return of 9/11 – Part 1
The general historical narrative of so-called "speculative" freemasonry that gets tossed about goes something like this: In 1717, four masonic lodges got together and formed a Grand Lodge on June 24, ushering in the era of speculative freemasonry. What is not reported by the more pedestrian historians about these Freemasons is that this kind of … Continue reading The Ancients Create a Grand Lodge of Their Own
