Why did Iran Burn an Effigy of Ba’al?
An intro to symbology and occult geopolitics
Occasionally when I write about occult geopolitics, I wonder whether readers ever think: “Uhhh I thought this newsletter was about stopping Israel and America from killing everyone” or “Isn’t this supposed to be about geopolitics and imperial collapse?”
But I resonate with the above statement, and I can explain why our imperial collapse involves both. Geopolitics, particularly concerning America, Israel, and the Ukraine, is best understood with a least a basic understanding about the occult and symbology. I know that seems weird to a regular, non-schizo person, but that’s unfortunately the kind of dark energy going on in the world right now.
Our elites tend to adhere to religions that we the lowly goyim do not. This may be familiar to you if you know anything about Scientology and its origins. Understanding the intersection between geopolitics and the occult will thus bring you a better understanding of geopolitical dynamics.
Don’t believe me? I understand, because it feels bizarre. But let’s consider an example. Last week, Iran burned an effigy of Baal alongside a representation of an obelisk, which were marked with a Star of David and the American flag. They burned the statue at 11:33 specifically, and said: “We, the monotheists of the world, by the help of God, will bring down the worshipers of Baal, the worshipers of Satan, and the arrogant oppressors.”
Once you begin to understand this context, you will understand how it applies to geopolitics.
What is Ba’al?
In religious texts, Ba’al is an honorific applied to various gods, most commonly associated with Ba’al Hadad, an ancient weather/storm deity in Biblical and Islamic tradition. He appears as a horned, bull-headed figure. Historically worshipped by Canaanite peoples, Ba’al is portrayed in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic texts as a false deity and rival to Yahweh, the true Abrahamic god. The Hebrew Bible thus criticizes Ba’al in multiple passages, while referring to various deities. This includes Ba’al Hammon—a god associated with rams and horns—and Beelzebub (Ba’al Zabub), aka the “Lord of the Flies.” Novelist William Golding’s novel of the same name used this term in reference to the natural capability of humans to descend into evil.
“Ba’als” are thus associated with Satanism and demonology, as worship of them involves the rejection of a monotheistic god in favour of pagan religions that could involve polytheism, idolatry, self-deification, and/or human sacrifice.
Moloch is the god most associated with human and child sacrifices, however, Ba’al Hadad and other Ba’als also welcomed them. The Old Testament of the Hebrew Bible explicitly links child sacrifice to Baal worship, and condemns Israelites who discarded the true faith to follow them. For example, in the Book of Judges, the Israelites abandon their commitment to Yahweh and revert to worshipping Ba’al Berith after their leader, Gideon, dies. The text (Judges 8:33) criticizes them for doing so, suggesting that they “prostituted themselves” to Ba’al (ie, they were spiritually unfaithful to the true God).
Bull imagery appears occasionally in Western festivals and architecture. The Victory arch in New York is a reproduction of the Temple of Ba’al in Palmyra (Syria), which was also rebuilt in London in 2016. The Charging Bull in the Financial District in New York is acknowledged as drawing a parallel between the idolatry of money in capitalism and worship of the golden calf by Israelites, while a demonic-looking bull was also featured in the opening ceremony of the 2022 Commonwealth games in London.
Why was an Obelisk there too?
Likely you recognize the obelisk as an Egyptian monument to the sun. So why was it included aside the burning of Ba’al?
The obelisk is a symbol that appears frequently across the West. You may recognize it as appearing at the Place de la Concorde in Paris, in St Peter’s Square at the Vatican, and of course the Washington Monument in Washington D.C. The story is that the West associated obelisks with imperial power, and that in the Enlightenment and Neoclassical era European and American elites became absorbed by Egyptology.
However, the obelisk is also an occult symbol. Western elite interest in Egyptology eventually led to an era known as “the occult revival,” in which occultists like Aleister Crowley practiced an esoteric religion called Thelema, which incorporated principles of Egyptian mysticism. Crowley identified himself as a prophet entrusted with guiding humanity through the Aeon of Horus, reportedly our current astrological age. Horus is an Egyptian child-god in the shape of a falcon, and the obelisk is reportedly a phallic symbol dedicated to him, thus the Abrahamic god apparently hates them and sees them as blasphemous.
Iran thus contrasts a symbol associated with Thelema with monotheism and uses it as an example of Western occultism.
Theosophy, Sabbatean Frankism, and other occult religions
I have noted people online arguing about whether the religion our elites participate in originated with Thelema (practiced by followers of Aleister Crowley, eg select Hollywood celebrities through Scientology), theosophy (pioneered by occultists in New York like Helena Blavatsky), Sabbatean Frankism (stemming from a murderous and incestuous cult that separated from Judaism), or other forms of Satanic/occult beliefs like Luciferianism.
Believing it is just one or the other however denies the complexity of our world. Similar to the reason why there are more Muslims in the Middle East and more Christians in Ireland, geographic location, migration patterns, and other sociocultural factors likely impact religious demographics and thus the beliefs of our elite pedophilic class. Some of these religions are in themselves a blend of philosophies—for example, theosophy blends Western occultism with Hinduism, Gnosticism, and Buddhism.
I think of it this way: the global eugenics movement of the 20th century and our current 2020s Awakening both demonstrate how ideas with similar philosophies can originate in different locations at the same time, while ideas can also spread within the consciousness of the world through our connections with one another. Crowley for instance was not only a world traveller but was also rumoured to be a MI6 agent or asset, and major cultural figures were inspired by his work, including musicians Jimmy Page, David Bowie, Ozzy Osbourne, and John Lennon, who wrote songs honouring him. Blavatsky too was a world traveller, and her work was also influenced by Egyptian mysticism.
What many of these occult and esoteric religions have in common however are similar core philosophies of inversion, individualism, self-deification, antinomianism, and rejection/rebellion against a monotheistic or Abrahamic god. Many people say “Zionism is not Judaism” but more accurate would probably be “Zionism is Inverted Judaism”, because Zionism rejects the benevolent teachings of Judaism or encourages its mirror image. Recall that antinomianism is actually anti-religious so it is actually anti-Jewish in a similar way that it would also be anti-Christian and anti-Islam. It would explain why so many religious buildings are currently burning across the world.
If you consider the Biblical story of the creation of Israel for example, God calls the Israelites to settle in the holy land to serve him. But a Frankist or follower of Thelema would reject the authority of the Abrahamic god. A Frankist antinomianist would want to seize the land not for their God but for themselves to deliberately transgress biblical rules, as Frankism suggests a person must embrace sin to transcend spiritually. Similarly, Thelema outlines the axiom “do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law”, emphasizing personal freedom and the pursuit of one’s personal path over the will of a God. If one’s will leads to a harmful or immoral place, this is still permissible within the religion, because one sets their own moral laws. Similarly to antinomianism, elevating the individual will completely not only denies the authority of a monotheistic god, but also the authority of anyone but the individual to set moral guidelines.
Meaning, if a subscriber to either of these religions wanted to slaughter children in Gaza or sexually traffic children, it would be permissible to them because they would not accept the authority of anyone who would say this is morally wrong.
Holy shit -- thanks for all of the comments, everyone. I appreciate them, including even those that criticize. I can see we're getting into some intense theological discussions. I just want to point out that I'm not a theologian, I simply write for free to awake those that might need more information and require awakening support. My main concern is that there are crimes going on that appear to have an occult dimension, and this is killing and harming thousands of children and innocent people. I simply would like to normalize talking about it because I don't like paying my taxes to child murderers and pedophiles. Thank you for reading and I appreciate the support!
This makes sense to me, as I try to sort through what is occurring through Zionism. This movement does seem central to a whole lot of evil taking place including the pandemic bio weapons attack, the ongoing wars, the drug and human trafficking networks and acts of terrorism that appear to be central to intelligence activities, the burning down of cities after Zionists are placed in key positions to facilitate capture of prime land. The total inversion of everything the public is told they are doing. I don’t know if my perceptions are biased because of biased information but it seems Zionists pop up in all the wrong places. They pretend to represent ‘the Jews’ but at least 40% of Jews in America are against this movement. Others are traumatized with stories about persecution and hatred towards them from a very young age. They are taught to be very sensitive to it happening again. Then a crypto Jewish movement rides on top of that narrative and commits all sorts of wrongdoing in their name. The inversion. These are dangerous times as real power reveals itself and appears to seek some sort of end game. They seem to have few limits.
