Sapiens Dominabitur astris

Only recently I have noticed in this old stone arch this in my town (Vicenza). It is most likely from the Middle Ages, even though I could not find certain dates (for sure but the shop is very recent Tim inside the building: D).

The two pillars of the arch are two carved bas-reliefs, now semi erased by time, depicting vine leaves. The most interesting element of the complex, however, is written by the great taste esoteric carved arch: SAPIENS Dominabitur Astris. The essay will rule on stars.

This motto is usually attributed to some organizations initiatory "regular" medieval. He was later also used by organizations diverted, schools and even some occult, but, moreover, this is the case with many other symbols.

However, if the bows and the words in question were indeed of the Middle Ages (and I think it is), we are faced with a work that expresses an authentic Christian esotericism.

My attention is still focused mainly on the motto, which I analyzed as follows:

SAPIENS (essay)
Since we are in an "esoteric," I think the word sapiens does not suggest the book "common" or simply "learned", but the beginning has already reached a high degree of spiritual attainment. In this context, the word sapiens could perhaps be likened to the word "Sufi " (though it is said that this is an 'equivalence' actual), that Islamic esotericism "refers only to the person who reached the top step ... "The true Sufi is one who possesses this Wisdom therefore [God]," as Rene Guenon.
(Rene Guenon, Esotericism Islamic Esotericism in Islam, and Taoism).

This, in fact, it can be concluded from the rest of the sentence. Otherwise you do not understand how and in what sense a learned man, as are his vast knowledge, may "dominate the stars."

Dominabitur Astris (will rule on the stars)
For stars means here the "influence" of celestial bodies. According to the medieval astrological vision (which, as we shall see, is anything but foreign to the theology of St. Thomas Aquinas) the stars in fact act with their influences on the "lower bodies" and affect them. In Thus, the character of people and some human behavior, especially the most instinctive, would be affected by the stars.

St. Thomas Aquinas in his Summa Theologiae (I-II, quaestio 115, Article 4). , says, however, that the heavenly bodies are not responsible for all human actions, because this would completely negate the free will of individuals: the stars then act directly on passions, but may act only indirectly and accidentally intellect, since it is separated from the sense organs. The man can then choose, with their will (and is here free will), to be the slave of the passions - of being "dominated by the stars" - or rise above them - and then dominate the stars -, thus approaching to God

"As the variety of motions body comes down, in order of causality, the uniformity of celestial motions, so the variety of documents issued by the intellect and the will can be traced back to that standard principles that is the intellect and the will of God the majority of men following the passions, which are sensitive and which movements of the heavenly bodies can cooperate, while few people are wise to resist such passions . [...] In fact, astronomers say the same "the wise man dominates the stars" in the sense that dominates their passions. "

(Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae , I-II, Quaestio 115, Article 4)

Consequently, the 'wise man', who domia passions, is also the one who is above fate, and his will is close to that of God (in the sense that he tends to do His will).

It 's interesting to note that motto as "initiation" has been placed on top of a door "entry points": the word seems to derive initiation fact in the Latin-ire, which means "go inside", enter (for example, enter the Way).

Venus Project

A partial integration of the previous post :

The image you see above ( Circular City ) was designed by American designer Jacque Fresco . The image shows the structure that should have, according to the author, an "ideal city" technology and "sustainable." The outline of this project is very similar to that of the depictions of the main island of Atlantis, which was made more circles concentric and straight lines (the bridges built by the Atlanteans) that connected with the outer bands of the inner city, where the most important buildings were located.

designer Jacque Fresco is the founder of Venus Project, that same project that was touted in the movie-Zeitgeist Addendum documetario (2008), and was enthusiastically presented as the "desirable solution" to the problems of the modern world . In fact, the Zeitgeist Movement is inspired directly the Venus Project of Jacque Fresco, and indeed one could say that the two "movements" are basically one thing - the same site of the Venus Project can be read even that " Zeitgeist movement is the armed wing Venus Project "( The Zeitgeist Movement is the activist arm of the Venus Project ) -

The" Venus Project "is not merely a project with the claim to revolutionize aspects of 'environmental', 'political', 'economic' or financial aspects of our society, if we analyze the ideologies of this movement we see in fact that it is inherent in the various "philosophies" (or, more precisely, the pseudo-doctrines) of new age. In one of the most important writings of Jacque Fresco, Looking Forward (1969), the very idea of \u200b\u200b"new age" appears several times, and appear even references to an indoctrination that young people - even from kindergarten! - Should receive, even now, to "make the most of human potential" of the "new era .
E 'this line of thought that seems very similar to that of "transuamanesimo", "religion" that man, also thanks to technology and scientific discoveries, is able to expand their skills and "rising" as a "new god".

"Every kindergarten , elementary school, high school , and college ; nation should help students to anticipate changes that there will be in their future. should entice them to seek new ways of think and " hear and " and reorganize their company for make the full potential human of happiness in new era - ... to make The Most of man's potential for happiness in the new age - »

(Jacque Fresco, Looking Forward, Part . III, 16 Education for Change)

This book was written, inter alia, with the help of new age guru Kenneth Keyes, you can also note that in cover of this text appears, once again, a picture that represents a "Circular City".

the official site of "Zeitgeist Moviment", you can also find this "odd" image propaganda (right).
This drawing depicts people in a "technology city" and "in harmony with nature" while watching the sun rise. Now, bear in mind that the rising sun is a symbol that clearly alludes to the new era, a new era was born and with which emerges from the darkness even the knowledge (gnosis) luciferin that "light" as humanity.

addition, it must be said that the " A prosperous future for all the world's people " ("a rich future for the people of the world"), this on top of the image, appears to rely on the 'idea of \u200b\u200b"one world". Moreover, it appears

that there is some link between the UN and this project. The spread Jacque Fresco has recently been invited (in 2010) to speak at the conference held in Holland I hope the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the "Earth Charter".

(Returning to the initial view of the ... particular form of this "Circular City" we can say that coincidence, perhaps, begin to be more than one).

The UN logo

This morning I thought about how there is indeed a certain similarity between the symbol of the United Nations and various "reconstructions" of Atlatnide, which were made from the description of Plato. The greek philosopher said it, in Critias, the main island of Atlantis was formed by several concentric circles. In addition to the central area (also circular), there were many other bands 5 External more precisely two strips of land and 3 bands of water, alternating between each other (as illustrated).
is what Plato says:

"Poseidon [...] had it [Atlantis] around steep, forming surrounded by sea and land alternately smaller and larger, round each other, two of land, three of sea, as if working on the lathe, starting from the center of the island, wherever a equal distance "

(Plato, Critias )

In the same text, Paton said that after the men would build bridges in Atlantis, to connect the outer
surrounded with the inner part of ' island;
here were located the most important buildings of the Atlantean empire,
that the royal palace and the temple dedicated to the god Poseidon

numbered in red are the round-earth

"The round-the sea that surrounds the ancient metropolis to first
made them viable means of bridges, forming a road outside and from the royal palace "

(Plato, Critias )

The symbol of the United Nations seems to correspond to the description in a surprising way Plant Atlantis. The bands resulting from the drawing are just five in number, and just as in Plato's account in the middle there is another circular area (ie the place where, in Atlantis, there would have been the royal palace). In the symbol of the UN, also, the various circles are connected by straight lines, which go towards the center of the figure, and which could be up to the bridges and canals constructed by the Atlanteans.

is true that the "official explanation" of the symbol is quite different, but in the context of "alternative theories" (o. .. conspiracy ) I believe that we can try to advance this hypothesis: that the symbol of 'UN is just a stylized representation of the island of Atlantis. Below I will try to explain why it would be Atlantis was chosen.

Why Atlantis?

As long as the symbol of the United Nations is in fact the island of Atlantis (this is still only a guess), what could be the reason for this "choice"? For groped for an answer, we must remember that the very strong influence on the UN had the "doctrines" and characters such as Theosophists Alice Bailey. According to the authors Theosophists, the continent of Atlantis was in fact the place where born in the past and spread the mystery cults, of which they see themselves as the successors.
Similarly, some "hidden schools" claim that the source of their organizations and their teachings is "Atlantis" ... and the same claim today many new age groups, among them "outstanding" the cult "neo-Atlantean "Damanhur, is at least interesting to note that this sect has received recognition, by the United Nations, as it would be a" model of ideal society. "
Obviously such claims of "ancient origin" are more than unfounded ... and also if there if you are in direct contradiction to other beliefs, such as "evolutionary," that characterize these movements. But Despite the contradictions, the source Atlantean of Mysteries for these people seems to be a full stop.

To occultists create a new empire of Atlantis, then, means to bring up their cults, cults that were unjustly "persecuted" by the Christian religion, and that would be ready to re-emerge in the mysterious "new era". For them, it also means establishing a new type of government that is consistent with their particular ideology.

Manly Palmer Hall, Occultist and 33rd degree Mason, in some of his writings ("Lectures on Ancient Philosophy") openly stated that there was a need to build a "New Atlantis " which would lead to an" ideal government for the land . A government that is composed by "an order of enlightened men (ie initiates) united by the aim to investigate forces of life and the mysteries of nature .
This "New Atlantis" mentioned by Hall is nothing, after all, the new world order, a "new world", as he says, where "the nations not exist "and" the earth will be under one single order, a government administrative body . "Where to direct the destiny of the globe and its inhabitants are men" enlightened ".
At this matter, the interpretation of the symbol in question would say that it represents a hope of building the "New Atlantis" and the return of the "mystery cults" throughout the world ... a world united by this "new religion" and guided by a single government. It 'an interpretation that may not be as fanciful as the United Nations are born with this specific purpose.

The Saturnalia

In these seven days is allowed only undertake serious and important, but getting drunk, cheering, playing dice, hold slaves, singing and dancing naked, face smeared with soot and let me throw this into the icy ... I can do it as long as I want!

Lucian, Saturnalia

During the ancient Rome, the Saturnalia was a festival dedicated to the god Saturn. Initially this festival was held only on December 17 but later, under Augustus, its duration was extended for another six days. During this festival, as well as in the course of so many others, took part in large banquets, invariably where the wine flowed freely, and often were exchanges of gifts. The most striking feature of the Saturnalia, however, was the subversion of order that prevailed during the days of "normal": the doors of the courts were closed and no justice was administered, he let the people go crazy or particularly noisy activities, in and out pilleus the street wearing the traditional headgear of the freedmen, as regards the slaves, they not only could act like free people, but they could also give orders to their masters; gambling, which was usually prohibited, was considered a legitimate (1).

Features of these holidays are historically well documented. What you can escape instead of their true meaning. Some, noting especially the aspect of "joy" that had this holiday, they wanted to see a reference to the mythical golden age. According to tradition, in fact, the golden age was dominated by the god Saturn, which in ancient times, was considered the god of agriculture and abundance - the Latin words satisfacere (content) and sator ( Sower, farmer) have indeed the exact same root Saturn - the Saturnalia would then be a quick and "symbolic" Happy return to an age that is gone now ... an evocation of an ancient era "abundance" of which we have only a vague memory.

This interpretation, however, fails to explain a fact: if the Saturnalia was really a "recovery" temporary splendor of an ancient tradition, why consisted, in fact, in a reversal of the same principles and in a subversion of traditional ' order "normal" things?

This can be understood only if we resort to another type of explanation. If it is true that in a very old Saturn was regarded as a god basically positive, but prevailed in later times his "dark side", so Saturn soon became a god of the beyond the grave, a god "hellish."

In the Greek tradition, this "change" is told in an excellent manner by the mythology. According to the myth of the god Cronus, comparable in every way to Saturn (2), was thrown into Tartarus with the Titans after losing the battle against Zeus (titanomachia).

what happened during the Saturnalia, was therefore not a point in when the god Saturn "positive" and could not even be a point of age gold. The interpretation at this point is more plausible is that the Saturnalia were the "safety valves" of the lower aspects of Roman society, which in those days (and only in those days) were free to manifest itself. Moreover, just as Rome was separated from the original (and conditions) of the Republican costumes, people felt a greater need for these parties that were able to express the "base instincts", so in imperial life the same Saturnalia was increased from one day to one week (or more precisely 17 to 23 December).

In medieval times, a feature remarkably similar to that of Saturnalia was held by the carnival celebrations. During Carnival, people could perform acts which would otherwise have been severely condemned by society ... even here, the wine flowed freely and often also the carnival parades taking grotesque features, "animalistic" (think of the many masks "animal") or even obscene, and no one remained shocked, you could also make small jokes or wrongdoing without being charged for this (hence the saying "every joke is a Carnival").

For an ancient society was however important that these parties have a fixed period and then life returned to be dominated by the order traditional ...

non semper Saturnalia ERUNT (not always there will be the Saturnalia, Seneca).

Notes:

(1) In Rome, the gambling was banned forever, although the punishment consisted only a fine in cash, equal to four times the stake. The gambling debts were not legally recognized even then, that (as we today) could not take legal action to demand payment of such debt.

(2) Hesiod tells us that Cronus, like Saturn, was the first god of the age gold, and that in this era, the earth produces spontaneously an abundance of fruit.
