1993 World Trade Center bombing

"The 1993 World Trade Center bombing occurred on February 26, 1993, when a truck bomb was detonated below the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York, NY. The 1,336 lb (606 kg) urea nitrate–hydrogen gas enhanced device[1] was intended to knock the North Tower (Tower One) into the South Tower (Tower Two), bringing both towers down and killing thousands of people.[2][3] It failed to do so, but did kill six people and injured more than a thousand.[4] The attack was planned by a group of conspirators including Ramzi Yousef, Mahmud Abouhalima, Mohammad Salameh, Nidal A. Ayyad, Abdul Rahman Yasin and Ahmad Ajaj. They received financing from Khaled Sheikh Mohammed, Yousef's uncle. In March 1994, four men were convicted of carrying out the bombing: Abouhalima, Ajaj, Ayyad and Salameh. The charges included conspiracy, explosive destruction of property and interstate transportation of explosives. In November 1997, two more were convicted: Yousef, the mastermind behind the bombings, and Eyad Ismoil, who drove the truck carrying the bomb." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wtc_bombing

93 - Flight 93 / 1993

I noticed the Number 93 appears on Flight 93 and also on the year the first WTC Bombing took place 1993, a recurring number in the WTC Attacks.

Edit: Also the second plane hit at exactly 9:03 AM.

The Stele 718

If it's talking about the Stele of 718 then it should be talking about the 9/11 Memorial.

We have to start studying up on this immediately...

National September 11 Memorial & Museum




"The National September 11 Memorial & Museum (branded as 9/11 Memorial and 9/11 Memorial Museum) is the principal memorial and museum commemorating the September 11 attacks of 2001, and the World Trade Center bombing of 1993 that killed 6 people.[3] The memorial is located at the World Trade Center site, on the former location of the Twin Towers destroyed during the attacks. The World Trade Center Memorial Foundation was renamed the National September 11 Memorial & Museum at the World Trade Center in 2007.[4]

The winner of the World Trade Center Site Memorial Competition was American architect Michael Arad of Handel Architects, a New York- and San Francisco-based firm. Arad worked with landscape architecture firm Peter Walker and Partners on the design which calls for a forest of trees with two square pools in the center, where the Twin Towers once stood.[5]

In August 2006, the World Trade Center Memorial Foundation and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey began heavy construction on the memorial and museum.[6] The design is consistent with the original Daniel Libeskind master plan that called for the memorial to be 30 feet below street level (originally 70 feet) in a piazza. The design was the only finalist to throw out Libeskind's requirement that buildings overhang the footprints.

A memorial was planned in the immediate aftermath of the attacks and destruction of the World Trade Center to remember both the victims and those involved in rescue. The National September 11 Memorial & Museum at the World Trade Center is a non-profit corporation with the mission to raise funds for, program, own and operate the memorial and museum at the World Trade Center site. On September 11, 2011, a dedication ceremony was held at the memorial, commemorating the tenth anniversary of the attacks. The memorial officially opened to the public on September 12, 2011, while the museum will open one year later, on or around September 11, 2012. Three months after opening, the memorial had been seen by over 1 million visitors.[7] In 2012, Tuesday's Children, a non-profit family service organization that has made a commitment to individuals directly impacted by 9/11 and to those who have lost loved ones to terrorism around the globe, has partnered with the 9/11 Memorial to offer private tours to family members of 9/11 victims and First Responders." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/9/11_memorial

United Airlines Flight 93

"United Airlines Flight 93 was a passenger flight which was hijacked by four al-Qaeda terrorists on September 11, 2001, as part of the September 11 attacks. It crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, during an attempt by some of the passengers to regain control, killing all 44 people aboard including the 4 hijackers. No one on the ground was injured. The aircraft involved, a Boeing 757–222, was flying United Airlines' daily scheduled morning domestic flight from Newark International Airport in Newark, New Jersey, to San Francisco International Airport in San Mateo County, California.

The hijackers breached the aircraft's cockpit and overpowered the flight crew approximately 46 minutes after takeoff. Ziad Jarrah, a trained pilot, then took control of the aircraft and diverted it back toward the east coast of the United States in the direction of Washington, D.C. The hijackers' specific target was the United States Capitol.[1]

After the hijackers took control of the plane, several passengers and flight attendants were able to make telephone calls and learn that attacks had already been made by other hijacked airlines on the World Trade Center in New York City and the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C. Some of the passengers then attempted to regain control of the aircraft. During the attempt, however, the plane crashed into a field in Stonycreek Township, near Shanksville in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, about 65 miles (105 km) southeast of Pittsburgh and 130 miles (210 km) northwest of Washington, D.C. A few witnessed the impact from the ground and news agencies began reporting the event within an hour.

Subsequent analysis of the flight recorders recovered from the crash site revealed how the actions taken by the passengers prevented the aircraft from reaching the hijackers' intended target. Of the four aircraft hijacked on September 11 – the others were American Airlines Flight 11, American Airlines Flight 77 and United Airlines Flight 175 – United Airlines Flight 93 was the only one that failed to reach its hijackers' intended target.

A temporary memorial has stood on the site since the attacks; the first phase of construction of the permanent Flight 93 National Memorial at the crash site was dedicated on September 10, 2011." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Airlines_Flight_93

9/11 WTC Attacks - 7/18/97

Ok, so I've just realized that the date September 11 falls on 7/18 on the New Calendar. Considering this we're going to have to start studying 9/11 immediately and try to see if we can gather any clues as what it could all possibly mean.

I'm still not exactly sure what it means exactly these puzzle pieces are only starting to unfold. I have to put these pieces together to try and see what it could all possibly mean...

I'm going to share/embed some videos from 9/11 so we can take a closer look at what happened and hence begin our studies on 9/11... I feel like this is a real great matter of importance, but for some reason like nobody seems to want to pay attention... So I guess it shouldn't matter so much, we might as well just continue with our personal studies into the matter to see what we can possibly learn and then I suppose people reading can decide whether to pay attention or not it doesn't matter, we must simply continue with our of utmost important scientific research.



The second plane hits at exactly 9:03 AM.

The 9/11 Attacks on the World Trade Center happened on September 11, 2001.

The year 2001 according to the New Calendar lands on the Thelemic year 97 which means if we're in the year 108 it happened approximately 11 years ago.

September 11, 2001 - 7/18/97

The September 11 Attacks

"The September 11 attacks (also referred to as September 11, September 11th or 9/11)[nb 1] were a series of four suicide attacks that were committed in the United States on September 11, 2001, coordinated to strike the areas of New York City and Washington, D.C. On that Tuesday morning, 19 terrorists from the Islamist militant group al-Qaeda hijacked four passenger jets. The hijackers intentionally piloted two of those planes, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, into the North and South towers of the World Trade Center complex in New York City; both towers collapsed within two hours. The hijackers also intentionally crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, and intended to pilot the fourth hijacked jet, United Airlines Flight 93, into the United States Capitol Building[2] in Washington, D.C.; however, the plane crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania after its passengers attempted to take control of the jet from the hijackers. Nearly 3,000 people died in the attacks, including the 246 civilians and 19 hijackers aboard the four planes, none of whom survived.

Suspicion quickly fell on al-Qaeda, and in 2004, the group's leader Osama bin Laden, who had initially denied involvement, claimed responsibility for the attacks.[1] Al-Qaeda and bin Laden cited U.S. support of Israel, the presence of U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia, and sanctions against Iraq as motives for the attacks. The United States responded to the attacks by launching the War on Terror and invading Afghanistan to depose the Taliban, which had harbored al-Qaeda. Many countries strengthened their anti-terrorism legislation and expanded law enforcement powers. In May 2011, after years at large, bin Laden was located and killed.

The destruction of the Twin Towers caused serious damage to the economy of Lower Manhattan and had a significant impact on global markets. Cleanup of the World Trade Center site was completed in May 2002, and the Pentagon was repaired within a year. Numerous memorials were constructed, including the National September 11 Memorial & Museum in New York, the Pentagon Memorial, and the Flight 93 National Memorial in Pennsylvania. After a lengthy delay, the 1,776-foot-tall (541 m) One World Trade Center is expected to be completed at ground zero in New York by 2013.[3]" - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_11_attacks

I noticed the Number 93 appears on Flight 93 and also the fact that the WTC Bombing took place in 1993, a recurring number in the WTC Attacks.

Synchronicity
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the philosophical concept. For other uses, see Synchronicity (disambiguation).
Synchronicity is the experience of two or more events that are apparently causally unrelated or unlikely to occur together by chance, yet are experienced as occurring together in a meaningful manner. The concept of synchronicity was first described in this terminology by Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss psychologist, in the 1920s.[1]

The concept does not question, or compete with, the notion of causality. Instead it maintains that, just as events may be grouped by cause, they may also be grouped by meaning. A grouping of events by meaning need not have an explanation in terms of cause and effect.

In addition to Jung, Arthur Koestler wrote extensively on synchronicity in The Roots of Coincidence.[2]

Horace - The Epistles

I was just researching some of the Classic Latin Poet Horace's works when I noticed he actually makes a brief mentioning of Augustus Caesar and Tiberius Caesar in one of his Classic works called "Epistles":

BkIEpIII:1-36 To a friend campaigning with Tiberius

Julius Florus I’m anxious to know whereabouts
Augustus’ stepson Tiberius is campaigning.

Does Thrace entertain you, the Hebrus, constrained
By bonds of snow, the straits between the two towers,
Or Asia Minor with its fertile plains and hills?
What works are his learned staff penning? This too,
Who’s chosen to record Augustus’ initiatives?
Who’s proclaiming war and peace to distant ages?
What about Titius, soon to arrive on Roman lips?
He’s dared to disdain the common ponds and streams,
Unafraid of drinking from the Pindaric source.
How is he? Does he speak of me? Blessed by the Muse,
Does he work to fit Theban measures to Latin lyres,
Or is he raging and thundering in tragic mode?
What’s Celsus doing? He was warned, and he often
Needs warning, to depend more on inner resources,
And keep from fingering the books Apollo’s received
For the Palatine library, lest when the birds some day
Flock to reclaim their plumage, the little crow stripped
Of his stolen colours is jeered. And what do you dare?
What thyme do you buzz among? You’ve no small gift,
It’s not coarse, or uncultivated, or unsightly.
You’ll bear first prize, the victor’s ivy, whether you whet
Your tongue for the courts, or advise on civil law,
Or compose delightful verse. Yet if you could shed
Your care, that cold compress, you could travel
To the place where heavenly wisdom leads you.
Let us, great or small, further this task, these studies,
If we wish to be dear to our country and ourselves.
Reply concerning this too, do you care as much as
You should for Munatius: or does your friendship
Badly stitched, knit together in vain then tear apart?
Yet, whether it’s your hot blood or your inexperience
Spurs on you wild and untamed horses, and wherever
You may be, both too noble to break brotherhood’s bond,
A sacrificial heifer’s fattening, for your return.

End of Book I Epistle III

Horace: The Epistles

"Julius Florus was a poet, orator, and jurist of the Augustan age.

His name has been immortalized by Horace, who dedicated to him two of his Epistles (i. 3~ i~. 2), from which it would appear that he composed lyrics of a light, agreeable kind. The statement of Pomponius Porphyrion, the old commentator on Horace, that Florus himself wrote satires, is probably erroneous, but he may have edited selections from the earlier satirists (Ennius, Lucilius, Varro).

Nothing is definitely known of his personality, except that he was one of the young men who accompanied Tiberius on his mission to settle the affairs of Armenia. He has been variously identified with Julius Florus, a distinguished orator and uncle of Julius Secundus, an intimate friend of Quintilian (Instit. x. 3, 13); with the leader of an insurrection of the Treviri (Tacitus, Ann. iii. 40); with the Postumus of Horace (Odes, ii. 14) and even with the historian Florus." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julius_Florus

"Nothing is definitely known of his personality, except that he was one of the young men who accompanied Tiberius on his mission to settle the affairs of Armenia. He has been variously identified with Julius Florus, a distinguished orator and uncle of Julius Secundus, an intimate friend of Quintilian"

I decided to look up Quintilian and noticed he was actually from Hispania:

"Marcus Fabius Quintilianus (c. 35 – c. 100) was a Roman rhetorician from Hispania, widely referred to in medieval schools of rhetoric and in Renaissance writing. In English translation, he is usually referred to as Quintilian, although the alternate spellings of Quintillian and Quinctilian are occasionally seen, the latter in older texts." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quintilian

It's very important that Occult matters are not brought up out loud either nor anything too strange.

God created Man and the Universe. The Universe works in Mysterious ways. Personally as a 93 Christian I believe in Caesar of Rome as God and Pontius his Governor who crucified Christ as Satan, that's our personal 93 Christian belief. And then just get it out of the way. If there's any need to explain anything out of the ordinary refer to things as perhaps being a result of Quantum Mechanics or Mathematics.

Pythagoras




If you've read Metamorphoses you'll notice that Pythagoras is one of the central Characters in the book, but if you remember closely Pythagoras is actually a commonly renowned philosopher and mathematician who is typically brought up in school a lot. Pythagoras from Metamorphoses is actually the same Pythagoras who developed the "Pythagorean Theorem".

"Pythagoras of Samos (Ancient Greek: Πυθαγόρας ὁ Σάμιος [Πυθαγόρης in Ionian Greek] Pythagóras ho Sámios "Pythagoras the Samian", or simply Πυθαγόρας; b. about 570 – d. about 495 BC[1][2]) was an Ionian Greek philosopher, mathematician, and founder of the religious movement called Pythagoreanism. Most of the information about Pythagoras was written down centuries after he lived, so very little reliable information is known about him. He was born on the island of Samos, and might have travelled widely in his youth, visiting Egypt and other places seeking knowledge. Around 530 BC, he moved to Croton, a Greek colony in southern Italy, and there set up a religious sect. His followers pursued the religious rites and practices developed by Pythagoras, and studied his philosophical theories. The society took an active role in the politics of Croton, but this eventually led to their downfall. The Pythagorean meeting-places were burned, and Pythagoras was forced to flee the city. He is said to have ended his days in Metapontum.

Pythagoras made influential contributions to philosophy and religious teaching in the late 6th century BC. He is often revered as a great mathematician, mystic and scientist, but he is best known for the Pythagorean theorem which bears his name. However, because legend and obfuscation cloud his work even more than with the other pre-Socratic philosophers, one can give account of his teachings to a little extent, and some have questioned whether he contributed much to mathematics and natural philosophy. Many of the accomplishments credited to Pythagoras may actually have been accomplishments of his colleagues and successors. Whether or not his disciples believed that everything was related to mathematics and that numbers were the ultimate reality is unknown. It was said that he was the first man to call himself a philosopher, or lover of wisdom,[3] and Pythagorean ideas exercised a marked influence on Plato, and through him, all of Western philosophy." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagoras

"Pythagorean theorem


A visual proof of the Pythagorean theorem
Since the fourth century AD, Pythagoras has commonly been given credit for discovering the Pythagorean theorem, a theorem in geometry that states that in a right-angled triangle the area of the square on the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares of the other two sides—that is, .

While the theorem that now bears his name was known and previously utilized by the Babylonians and Indians, he, or his students, are often said to have constructed the first proof. It must, however, be stressed that the way in which the Babylonians handled Pythagorean numbers implies that they knew that the principle was generally applicable, and knew some kind of proof, which has not yet been found in the (still largely unpublished) cuneiform sources.[46] Because of the secretive nature of his school and the custom of its students to attribute everything to their teacher, there is no evidence that Pythagoras himself worked on or proved this theorem. For that matter, there is no evidence that he worked on any mathematical or meta-mathematical problems. Some attribute it as a carefully constructed myth by followers of Plato over two centuries after the death of Pythagoras, mainly to bolster the case for Platonic meta-physics, which resonate well with the ideas they attributed to Pythagoras. This attribution has stuck down the centuries up to modern times.[47] The earliest known mention of Pythagoras's name in connection with the theorem occurred five centuries after his death, in the writings of Cicero and Plutarch." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagoras#Pythagorean_theorem

I knew very well since High School that it was Pythagoras was the philosopher who played in a part the development of Music Theory and Music Scales from studying Music Theory and also by having read part of this book, which I unfortunately never got to finish reading though which is called "The Secret Teachings of All Ages" by Manly P. Hall.

(I'm not exactly sure if I'm correct or not I'll have to study a bit further, but I remember before having read Metamorphoses that it was Pythagoras who had developed the Modern Color Spectrum and Music Theories what I didn't know until now was that he apparently seemed to be one of actually the main characters within Metamorphoses. I happen to think the discovery of having found out Pythagoras! being a central character in the book to be a really great discovery, I never thought Pythagoras could have possibly been one of our Hero's from Ovid's Metamorphoses the whole time, really an amazing and awesome discovery.)

Here are the sections dealing with Pythagoras' Teachings and Discoveries from "The Secret Teachings of All Ages" by Manly P. Hall:

Unrelated Posts

I just wanted to mention that when posts, posts one on top of the other, they are typically unrelated. Each posts only concerns what is in that post. I sometimes posts completely unrelated posts one after the other.

I typically change the subject dramatically from one post to the other. I'm just saying, so you won't get mixed up. I move from one topic to another increasingly fast. Posts are typically not related to each other and concern very different matters and subjects from one post to the other.

Excerpt from Liber Legis

"17. Hear me, ye people of sighing!
The sorrows of pain and regret
Are left to the dead and the dying,
The folk that not know me as yet.
18. These are dead, these fellows; they feel not. We are not for the poor and sad: the lords of the earth are our kinsfolk.

19. Is a God to live in a dog? No! but the highest are of us. They shall rejoice, our chosen: who sorroweth is not of us.

20. Beauty and strength, leaping laughter and delicious languor, force and fire, are of us.

21. We have nothing with the outcast and the unfit: let them die in their misery. For they feel not. Compassion is the vice of kings: stamp down the wretched & the weak: this is the law of the strong: this is our law and the joy of the world. Think not, o king, upon that lie: That Thou Must Die: verily thou shalt not die, but live. Now let it be understood: If the body of the King dissolve, he shall remain in pure ecstasy for ever. Nuit! Hadit! Ra-Hoor-Khuit! The Sun, Strength & Sight, Light; these are for the servants of the Star & the Snake." - Liber Legis

The Order & Value of the English Alphabet

I was considering making it so that we somehow eventually translate all languages so that they only use the 26 Letter English / Latin Alphabet as in The Key of it All.

Also I was considering adding the word "The" to the Latin Alphabet, but to use the Greek word for "The" which is "O".

I started to think whether if I should add the word "The" to Latin since it does not have a word for "The" considering the word "Thelema" and the letter "Theta".

These are only ideas I have so far in the Scientific Process of Development they're not yet exactly official. These ideas just came to me during Contemplation.

"22. Let there be no difference made among you between any one thing & any other thing; for thereby there cometh hurt.

23. But whoso availeth in this, let him be the chief of all!" - Liber Legis

The common Latin phrase for "Please" is "Si me amas" which technically means "If you Love me".

Love = Will = 56

"I am not King, but Caesar." - Julius Caesar

Edit: I was thinking Agape sounds like "A" and Thelema sounds like "The".

Edit: I was considering adding the Words Will, Love, Animo and Amore to each of the Languages as well.

Going Back to Edit / Rewrite / Arrange

Right now I'm in the process of going back to edit and arrange a lot of stuff I wrote, it's probably going to take me a while, but I just have to go back and rewrite and arrange a lot of posts.

I was thinking I need to italicize a lot of stuff I put in quotes and insert like for instance a lot of apostrophes and commas and stuff like that here and there, small stuff like that.

I figured I might as well start a blog on proper English and Grammar once I'm done. I think that should probably help out a lot of people, I think.

I don't mean to, but I get really paranoid sometimes when I talk about Grammar though because of the fact that I'm really self-conscious about the way I write, I always have to write everything absolutely correct or else I feel bad for some reason. I just get paranoid sort of, so like all I can say is I might not have like perfect English writing abilities, but at least I try the absolute best I can. I'm going to delve into the more technical and gritty details on how to write proper sentences and phrases and stuff like that, I'll probably study Latin and my Latin skills at the same time as well.

Finally Going Back to Edit - Julio Cesar & The Stone of Gold / The Key of it All - The Book

Now that I've come a far away since we first started in our studies. I decided to finally go back and rewrite the entire story of "Julio Cesar & The Stone of Gold / The Key of it All" but then I was thinking I might as well start writing an entire Novel based on it's discovery because basically I was thinking like all of the stuff I write is obviously just like factual information like just facts, but "Julio Cesar & The Stone of Gold / The Key of it All" is a story.

Thing is I was about to start rewriting it finally because the one I wrote was just a like a spur of words written really fast in an attempt to tell my story as soon as possible I did no editing at all.

Just now that I've finally reached this point and am barely nearing an almost completion (Although technically it's really never going to end since I'm just going to keep posting over and over again.) I was going to go ahead and try to write it the way a good essay or paper should be written rather than just blabbering a bunch of words, but then I started to notice it's going to take me more than just a couple of minutes to finish writing it, this story deserves practically to be like an entire Novel.

Now knowing that I figured I might as well start writing the Book on it's discovery "Julio Cesar & The Stone of Gold / The Key of it All" or something like that.

The post that's up write now telling the story was just written in a terrible rush.

So in that case I figured I might as well start working on the Book which should technically probably end up being like very autobiographical as well.
