--> 00:02:44,480 guest tonight and myself 50 00:02:49,670 --> 00:02:47,200 uh nearly a couple of years ago now 51 00:02:51,670 --> 00:02:49,680 where we were talking about another book 52 00:02:54,229 --> 00:02:51,680 and other research that he had done on 53 00:02:56,949 --> 00:02:54,239 the book of enoch but tonight my guest 54 00:02:59,830 --> 00:02:56,959 is robert sullivan iv we're going to be

00:03:20,390 --> 00:03:17,280 too and 65 00:03:22,309 --> 00:03:20,400 i think uh you sort of run the gamut on 66 00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:22,319 your coverage of films in this book 67 00:03:25,270 --> 00:03:23,280 because 68 00:03:28,070 --> 00:03:25,280 there's something for everybody it's not 69 00:03:30,149 --> 00:03:28,080 just one style of film and it's not just 70 00:03:32,710 --> 00:03:30,159 sort of one decade 71 00:03:34,949 --> 00:03:32,720 you've sort of taken a look throughout 72 00:03:38,309 --> 00:03:34,959 the decades at uh 73 00:03:39,670 --> 00:03:38,319 symbolism or uh sort of hidden messages 74 00:03:42,229 --> 00:03:39,680 hidden meaning 75 00:03:44,949 --> 00:03:42,239 uh in hollywood films 76 00:03:47,350 --> 00:03:44,959 and i know that i was looking um 77 00:03:49,509 --> 00:03:47,360 on your website and it it it talked 78 00:03:50,789 --> 00:03:49,519 about uh 79 00:03:53,589 --> 00:03:50,799 oh gosh 80 00:03:58,390 --> 00:03:53,599 the occult numerology astrology 81 00:04:01,350 --> 00:03:58,400 mythology alchemy the tarot the kabbalah 82 00:04:04,470 --> 00:04:01,360 and all this all these types of images 83 00:04:06,470 --> 00:04:04,480 contained uh within popular films now 84 00:04:08,390 --> 00:04:06,480 can i ask you 85 00:04:09,750 --> 00:04:08,400 are these it's it would seem to me like 86 00:04:11,910 --> 00:04:09,760 there might be a couple of different 87 00:04:13,030 --> 00:04:11,920 kinds of symbolism or meaning and that 88 00:04:16,710 --> 00:04:13,040 is 89 00:04:18,310 --> 00:04:16,720 deliberate symbols or deliberate images 90 00:04:21,030 --> 00:04:18,320 placed in 91 00:04:23,990 --> 00:04:21,040 uh that give a deliberate message 92 00:04:27,270 --> 00:04:24,000 and then is there also an element 93 00:04:29,590 --> 00:04:27,280 of the filmmaker as an artist just sort 94 00:04:32,310 --> 00:04:29,600 of picking up 95 00:04:34,950 --> 00:04:32,320 from maybe the collective unconscious or 96 00:04:36,469 --> 00:04:34,960 other ideas out there and they're not 97 00:04:39,430 --> 00:04:36,479 really 98 00:04:41,350 --> 00:04:39,440 consciously putting in the symbols but 99 00:04:43,830 --> 00:04:41,360 being artists they sort of come from an 100 00:04:44,870 --> 00:04:43,840 unconscious place is that part of it at 101 00:04:47,030 --> 00:04:44,880 all 102 00:04:48,230 --> 00:04:47,040 yeah i definitely um i think i think 103 00:04:50,150 --> 00:04:48,240 when you're dealing with uh the 104 00:04:51,430 --> 00:04:50,160 collective unconscious i think these 105 00:04:52,950 --> 00:04:51,440 filmmakers are aware of it and 106 00:04:54,310 --> 00:04:52,960 incorporate you know since it is 107 00:04:56,390 --> 00:04:54,320 unconscious technically we don't know 108 00:04:58,150 --> 00:04:56,400 what it is but we know 109 00:05:00,710 --> 00:04:58,160 some of its components are you know 110 00:05:02,629 --> 00:05:00,720 ancient ancient religion mysticism 111 00:05:03,590 --> 00:05:02,639 alchemy astrology some of the things you 112 00:05:05,350 --> 00:05:03,600 mentioned 113 00:05:07,510 --> 00:05:05,360 you can also create the argument that 114 00:05:09,029 --> 00:05:07,520 there are some filmmakers who aren't who 115 00:05:11,189 --> 00:05:09,039 are you know i mean they're under this 116 00:05:13,270 --> 00:05:11,199 influence as well and uh may not 117 00:05:14,950 --> 00:05:13,280 necessarily be aware of this esoterica 118 00:05:17,350 --> 00:05:14,960 but in incorporating it you know 119 00:05:19,590 --> 00:05:17,360 unconsciously i document that as well 120 00:05:21,510 --> 00:05:19,600 but i think in most instances um these 121 00:05:22,790 --> 00:05:21,520 filmmakers are very cognizant of this 122 00:05:24,390 --> 00:05:22,800 material 123 00:05:25,590 --> 00:05:24,400 know it's very powerful 124 00:05:27,830 --> 00:05:25,600 and um 125 00:05:29,990 --> 00:05:27,840 i you know are intentionally in placing 126 00:05:31,990 --> 00:05:30,000 or intentionally placing it in the film 127 00:05:35,270 --> 00:05:32,000 i don't necessarily ascribe a sinister 128 00:05:37,590 --> 00:05:35,280 motive to this um per se but i would say 129 00:05:39,590 --> 00:05:37,600 that it's it's definitely for them a 130 00:05:41,670 --> 00:05:39,600 form of like mythology making is really 131 00:05:43,270 --> 00:05:41,680 what it boils down to but plus i mean 132 00:05:45,270 --> 00:05:43,280 you know they're they're literally you 133 00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:45,280 know raking in money hand over fist on 134 00:05:50,390 --> 00:05:48,000 this so um it's very powerful it's very 135 00:05:51,990 --> 00:05:50,400 powerful imagery um but yeah i mean i 136 00:05:54,070 --> 00:05:52,000 mean a lot of this arcana comes out of 137 00:05:56,390 --> 00:05:54,080 the collective unconscious and in turn 138 00:05:58,150 --> 00:05:56,400 you do have filmmakers who who can be 139 00:06:00,550 --> 00:05:58,160 influenced as well but the camera 140 00:06:02,230 --> 00:06:00,560 captures captures everything as they say 141 00:06:03,510 --> 00:06:02,240 so um you know i do talk about in the 142 00:06:05,590 --> 00:06:03,520 movie where you'll you'll find a 143 00:06:07,029 --> 00:06:05,600 filmmaker who who you know you 144 00:06:09,270 --> 00:06:07,039 researched the person and they really 145 00:06:11,189 --> 00:06:09,280 had no knowledge of this material but 146 00:06:13,510 --> 00:06:11,199 but you'll find you know the these 147 00:06:15,430 --> 00:06:13,520 esoteric themes in their films so how do 148 00:06:16,870 --> 00:06:15,440 you reconcile it well you know they're 149 00:06:19,590 --> 00:06:16,880 they're under the influence as well just 150 00:06:21,830 --> 00:06:19,600 like everybody else but by and large um 151 00:06:24,309 --> 00:06:21,840 i do believe it's intentional and um i 152 00:06:25,830 --> 00:06:24,319 i've seen too much evidence of it uh to 153 00:06:27,510 --> 00:06:25,840 think otherwise 154 00:06:29,830 --> 00:06:27,520 yeah you said you don't necessarily 155 00:06:32,790 --> 00:06:29,840 ascribe you know sort of a sinister 156 00:06:34,550 --> 00:06:32,800 meaning to it necessarily but is there 157 00:06:37,430 --> 00:06:34,560 an intentional 158 00:06:39,830 --> 00:06:37,440 at least some of the time uh 159 00:06:41,350 --> 00:06:39,840 an intentional subliminal 160 00:06:44,230 --> 00:06:41,360 message that they're giving to the 161 00:06:45,670 --> 00:06:44,240 viewer uh is there something 162 00:06:48,469 --> 00:06:45,680 that uh 163 00:06:51,189 --> 00:06:48,479 makes them want to see the movie more or 164 00:06:53,749 --> 00:06:51,199 i'm not sure or somehow to influence the 165 00:06:55,189 --> 00:06:53,759 viewer is that 166 00:06:57,110 --> 00:06:55,199 well i don't know if it's 167 00:06:59,510 --> 00:06:57,120 yeah i mean i mean sure it is it's it's 168 00:07:01,270 --> 00:06:59,520 i don't know if it's to influence the 169 00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:01,280 viewer to do anything in particular or 170 00:07:05,350 --> 00:07:03,199 anything like i said i really view it as 171 00:07:07,830 --> 00:07:05,360 a form of mind control but i think it's 172 00:07:08,950 --> 00:07:07,840 um it's they're using this this imagery 173 00:07:11,029 --> 00:07:08,960 that's very veiled they're not going to 174 00:07:13,189 --> 00:07:11,039 come out and announce it but but it 175 00:07:16,309 --> 00:07:13,199 helps by incorporating it helps with 176 00:07:18,550 --> 00:07:16,319 plot lines um and it imbues the movie 177 00:07:20,070 --> 00:07:18,560 with different levels of meaning um and 178 00:07:23,350 --> 00:07:20,080 it's almost like a challenge in some 179 00:07:25,909 --> 00:07:23,360 instances uh you watch a movie um you 180 00:07:28,710 --> 00:07:25,919 know it takes me numerous times uh to 181 00:07:30,710 --> 00:07:28,720 watch a film to pick up on to pick up on 182 00:07:32,309 --> 00:07:30,720 everything i mean and even now as i sit 183 00:07:33,670 --> 00:07:32,319 here talking to you i'm sure you know 184 00:07:36,070 --> 00:07:33,680 there could be movies i've seen a dozen 185 00:07:37,749 --> 00:07:36,080 times where i still have missed stuff um 186 00:07:40,230 --> 00:07:37,759 i mean some movies are just really 187 00:07:42,469 --> 00:07:40,240 overloaded with it some um have more 188 00:07:44,390 --> 00:07:42,479 than others um surprisingly there have 189 00:07:46,870 --> 00:07:44,400 been movies i've watched expecting to 190 00:07:49,510 --> 00:07:46,880 see a lot and haven't seen any so you 191 00:07:52,710 --> 00:07:49,520 know it just varies and uh you know i i 192 00:07:55,270 --> 00:07:52,720 i definitely like i said um i it was it 193 00:07:56,629 --> 00:07:55,280 was it was really more than enough 194 00:07:58,309 --> 00:07:56,639 and really this book grew out of the 195 00:08:00,710 --> 00:07:58,319 final chapter of royal arch of enoch 196 00:08:02,629 --> 00:08:00,720 where i talked about um some masonic in 197 00:08:04,390 --> 00:08:02,639 solar enacting themes and movies just to 198 00:08:06,150 --> 00:08:04,400 make a long story short it was it was 199 00:08:08,710 --> 00:08:06,160 movies that i definitely could document 200 00:08:10,869 --> 00:08:08,720 it in and i sort of applied that same 201 00:08:13,990 --> 00:08:10,879 maxim when i was doing um cinema 202 00:08:15,510 --> 00:08:14,000 symbolism i mean i i had to be 100 sure 203 00:08:17,830 --> 00:08:15,520 that i was convinced of what i was 204 00:08:20,790 --> 00:08:17,840 seeing and uh was was certain that the 205 00:08:22,790 --> 00:08:20,800 evidence um was clear to to you know 206 00:08:24,950 --> 00:08:22,800 really do an analysis of the analysis of 207 00:08:26,790 --> 00:08:24,960 the film um you know it wasn't the sort 208 00:08:28,070 --> 00:08:26,800 of thing you know where oh i just saw it 209 00:08:29,909 --> 00:08:28,080 once or twice and let's talk about i 210 00:08:32,230 --> 00:08:29,919 mean i really had to be convinced that 211 00:08:34,230 --> 00:08:32,240 um i you know i was seeing what i was 212 00:08:35,909 --> 00:08:34,240 seeing and then it was definitely enough 213 00:08:37,909 --> 00:08:35,919 of it to convince me that it was uh 214 00:08:39,589 --> 00:08:37,919 intentionally there 215 00:08:41,589 --> 00:08:39,599 and do you 216 00:08:43,110 --> 00:08:41,599 think that this 217 00:08:45,829 --> 00:08:43,120 phenomena 218 00:08:47,990 --> 00:08:45,839 uh goes across other media like 219 00:08:50,470 --> 00:08:48,000 television and 220 00:08:51,430 --> 00:08:50,480 maybe comic books and 221 00:08:54,070 --> 00:08:51,440 um 222 00:08:55,670 --> 00:08:54,080 other things do you think that i mean it 223 00:08:58,630 --> 00:08:55,680 sort of reminds me of you know the 224 00:09:00,949 --> 00:08:58,640 hidden symbols and renaissance paintings 225 00:09:03,350 --> 00:09:00,959 uh but i think those were quite 226 00:09:05,750 --> 00:09:03,360 intentional and you know a lot of them 227 00:09:07,269 --> 00:09:05,760 you know contained what 228 00:09:09,829 --> 00:09:07,279 what would have been called heretical 229 00:09:11,190 --> 00:09:09,839 messages and things like that 230 00:09:13,190 --> 00:09:11,200 but 231 00:09:15,750 --> 00:09:13,200 do you think it just sort of runs the 232 00:09:16,630 --> 00:09:15,760 gamut of of art 233 00:09:18,470 --> 00:09:16,640 uh 234 00:09:20,310 --> 00:09:18,480 in general 235 00:09:21,990 --> 00:09:20,320 or do you think that 236 00:09:23,990 --> 00:09:22,000 that i mean have you noticed for 237 00:09:25,590 --> 00:09:24,000 instance if you're watching tv that 238 00:09:28,790 --> 00:09:25,600 there was something 239 00:09:31,750 --> 00:09:28,800 uh you recognized in a tv show 240 00:09:33,990 --> 00:09:31,760 uh that you know they left in the frame 241 00:09:36,150 --> 00:09:34,000 for some reason or another 242 00:09:37,590 --> 00:09:36,160 or is it strictly films that you've 243 00:09:41,190 --> 00:09:37,600 noticed this in 244 00:09:43,509 --> 00:09:41,200 oh no it's in tv shows um tv shows have 245 00:09:46,070 --> 00:09:43,519 uh incorporate some of these themes 246 00:09:48,710 --> 00:09:46,080 music videos um incorporate some of 247 00:09:51,190 --> 00:09:48,720 these themes um you know you talk about 248 00:09:53,670 --> 00:09:51,200 comic books i mean a lot of comic book 249 00:09:57,509 --> 00:09:53,680 characters um are very are you know 250 00:09:59,190 --> 00:09:57,519 archetypical um and and and incorporate 251 00:10:01,430 --> 00:09:59,200 you know again these elements coming out 252 00:10:02,790 --> 00:10:01,440 of the collective unconscious so um yeah 253 00:10:04,150 --> 00:10:02,800 i mean you know you'll find you know i 254 00:10:05,430 --> 00:10:04,160 mean you know you mentioned the 255 00:10:08,710 --> 00:10:05,440 beginning of the show how it kind of 256 00:10:11,190 --> 00:10:08,720 spans genres i mean you will find 257 00:10:13,110 --> 00:10:11,200 you know i get into it in hollywood uh 258 00:10:15,190 --> 00:10:13,120 and with cinema but i mean certainly you 259 00:10:16,790 --> 00:10:15,200 even go back in time to the 19th century 260 00:10:19,110 --> 00:10:16,800 with the works of you know composers 261 00:10:21,829 --> 00:10:19,120 like richard wagner um you know very 262 00:10:24,550 --> 00:10:21,839 steep mythology a lot of his works um 263 00:10:27,350 --> 00:10:24,560 you go to mozart with the magic flute um 264 00:10:29,350 --> 00:10:27,360 a lot of illuminati religious masonic 265 00:10:31,430 --> 00:10:29,360 symbolism and that i mean the works of 266 00:10:33,990 --> 00:10:31,440 william shakespeare a lot of references 267 00:10:36,630 --> 00:10:34,000 to you know mythology midsummer night's 268 00:10:38,069 --> 00:10:36,640 dream um the occult astrology things 269 00:10:39,509 --> 00:10:38,079 like that so i mean it does run the game 270 00:10:41,750 --> 00:10:39,519 and like you said you know you'll find 271 00:10:43,670 --> 00:10:41,760 it incorporated um into these 272 00:10:45,430 --> 00:10:43,680 renaissance masters you know works of 273 00:10:47,350 --> 00:10:45,440 arts and it really is sort of the same 274 00:10:49,670 --> 00:10:47,360 thing you know when you're dealing with 275 00:10:51,590 --> 00:10:49,680 a lot of these themes by incorporating 276 00:10:54,150 --> 00:10:51,600 you know gold the golden ratio and the 277 00:10:55,750 --> 00:10:54,160 vesicle pisces and the paintings um in 278 00:10:57,509 --> 00:10:55,760 sacred geometry and then you see 279 00:10:59,590 --> 00:10:57,519 incorporated into a building you know 280 00:11:01,829 --> 00:10:59,600 with the alignments astrologically well 281 00:11:03,509 --> 00:11:01,839 then you turn it you put it in a movie 282 00:11:05,590 --> 00:11:03,519 um you know it's the same sort of thing 283 00:11:07,590 --> 00:11:05,600 it turns your your movie into you know a 284 00:11:10,550 --> 00:11:07,600 living piece of artwork um 285 00:11:12,870 --> 00:11:10,560 you know a living piece of mythology um 286 00:11:15,670 --> 00:11:12,880 and like i said it's uh definitely you 287 00:11:16,949 --> 00:11:15,680 know i i'm 100 convinced um that it is 288 00:11:18,949 --> 00:11:16,959 definitely there and definitely 289 00:11:21,190 --> 00:11:18,959 intentional 290 00:11:23,910 --> 00:11:21,200 well and and and 291 00:11:25,269 --> 00:11:23,920 we're not talking about the you know uh 292 00:11:27,190 --> 00:11:25,279 hidden 293 00:11:28,790 --> 00:11:27,200 you know body parts in the little 294 00:11:30,150 --> 00:11:28,800 mermaid and things like that we're 295 00:11:33,190 --> 00:11:30,160 talking about 296 00:11:34,870 --> 00:11:33,200 real esoteric symbolism 297 00:11:36,630 --> 00:11:34,880 and you're talking about astrology 298 00:11:39,829 --> 00:11:36,640 numerology 299 00:11:44,069 --> 00:11:39,839 even kabbalistic symbolism 300 00:11:45,990 --> 00:11:44,079 now today i had fun you know i or i 301 00:11:48,630 --> 00:11:46,000 guess it was yesterday probably i posted 302 00:11:50,710 --> 00:11:48,640 a a picture from the wizard of oz and 303 00:11:52,470 --> 00:11:50,720 every week i changed my facebook 304 00:11:53,990 --> 00:11:52,480 background to sort of go along with 305 00:11:56,150 --> 00:11:54,000 something that's going to be on the show 306 00:11:57,670 --> 00:11:56,160 but i i just kind of wait to see who 307 00:11:59,110 --> 00:11:57,680 picks up on it 308 00:12:01,829 --> 00:11:59,120 and um 309 00:12:03,350 --> 00:12:01,839 but the wizard of oz i put because it's 310 00:12:06,310 --> 00:12:03,360 such a classic 311 00:12:08,710 --> 00:12:06,320 it's something you know it's a film that 312 00:12:10,870 --> 00:12:08,720 everyone has seen i mean every kid in 313 00:12:14,550 --> 00:12:10,880 the world at some point sees wizard of 314 00:12:16,629 --> 00:12:14,560 oz and normally you know those of us you 315 00:12:18,949 --> 00:12:16,639 know that are adults have seen it more 316 00:12:21,030 --> 00:12:18,959 than once over our lifetimes can you 317 00:12:22,710 --> 00:12:21,040 talk a little bit about what you found 318 00:12:24,389 --> 00:12:22,720 within 319 00:12:26,629 --> 00:12:24,399 the wizard of oz 320 00:12:29,829 --> 00:12:26,639 oh sure absolutely um wizard of oz is 321 00:12:32,069 --> 00:12:29,839 steeped in mysticism um you have really 322 00:12:34,069 --> 00:12:32,079 three levels of allegory going on the 323 00:12:35,509 --> 00:12:34,079 first is just your perfunctory you know 324 00:12:37,590 --> 00:12:35,519 it's a girl living on a farm gets 325 00:12:39,430 --> 00:12:37,600 whisked away to a magical land has an 326 00:12:40,389 --> 00:12:39,440 adventure goes home the end have a nice 327 00:12:42,310 --> 00:12:40,399 day 328 00:12:44,310 --> 00:12:42,320 but then you get into really two more 329 00:12:45,670 --> 00:12:44,320 much more deeper allegories one is a 330 00:12:47,430 --> 00:12:45,680 little more on the surface than the 331 00:12:49,350 --> 00:12:47,440 other um and one's a little more 332 00:12:51,670 --> 00:12:49,360 well-known than the other um and that is 333 00:12:53,750 --> 00:12:51,680 that the wizard of oz is a retelling 334 00:12:55,590 --> 00:12:53,760 of the political life economic 335 00:12:59,030 --> 00:12:55,600 socio-political life in the united 336 00:13:02,790 --> 00:12:59,040 states of america um from about 1895 to 337 00:13:04,710 --> 00:13:02,800 around 1905 um where you have um you 338 00:13:06,710 --> 00:13:04,720 know certainly the the the the 339 00:13:09,269 --> 00:13:06,720 you know in 1896 you had a massive 340 00:13:10,710 --> 00:13:09,279 depression um in in the united states 341 00:13:12,310 --> 00:13:10,720 not a lot of people aware of it everyone 342 00:13:14,629 --> 00:13:12,320 knows of the one those are the one in 343 00:13:17,750 --> 00:13:14,639 the late 20s um 344 00:13:19,269 --> 00:13:17,760 early early 1930s right 345 00:13:20,389 --> 00:13:19,279 yeah there was a big depression in in 346 00:13:22,310 --> 00:13:20,399 1896 347 00:13:24,949 --> 00:13:22,320 which saw foreclosures people losing 348 00:13:26,550 --> 00:13:24,959 their farm laborers being laid off so of 349 00:13:27,990 --> 00:13:26,560 course you have the girl losing the farm 350 00:13:30,150 --> 00:13:28,000 to the tornado at the beginning 351 00:13:32,710 --> 00:13:30,160 symbolizing foreclosure 352 00:13:35,269 --> 00:13:32,720 but then she goes to the magical land 353 00:13:36,710 --> 00:13:35,279 you have the wizard of oz is the 354 00:13:39,430 --> 00:13:36,720 president of the united states was 355 00:13:42,790 --> 00:13:39,440 william mckinley who wanted to use um 356 00:13:45,269 --> 00:13:42,800 the the the gold standard to back um 357 00:13:47,350 --> 00:13:45,279 green money this is why the yellow brick 358 00:13:49,670 --> 00:13:47,360 road or the gold standard always leads 359 00:13:51,829 --> 00:13:49,680 to the creation of paper money um and 360 00:13:53,590 --> 00:13:51,839 that's well also it was the it was the 361 00:13:54,949 --> 00:13:53,600 emerald city that they were going to 362 00:13:56,710 --> 00:13:54,959 which is green 363 00:13:58,389 --> 00:13:56,720 right that's right it's green money it's 364 00:14:01,670 --> 00:13:58,399 it's the gold standard leads through the 365 00:14:04,790 --> 00:14:01,680 green money the in the book in baum's 366 00:14:07,590 --> 00:14:04,800 book um the the dorothy wears um silver 367 00:14:09,350 --> 00:14:07,600 slippers they're not ruby um they did it 368 00:14:11,590 --> 00:14:09,360 they didn't turn up right in the in in 369 00:14:13,030 --> 00:14:11,600 the filming of the uh of the filming of 370 00:14:14,310 --> 00:14:13,040 the movie and they wanted to use ruby 371 00:14:16,230 --> 00:14:14,320 because they were using technicolor 372 00:14:17,670 --> 00:14:16,240 which was brand new but the silver 373 00:14:19,670 --> 00:14:17,680 slippers actually symbolized something 374 00:14:21,430 --> 00:14:19,680 called the free silver movement um and 375 00:14:23,590 --> 00:14:21,440 this was also the idea of using silver 376 00:14:25,430 --> 00:14:23,600 to back green money this is why the 377 00:14:27,269 --> 00:14:25,440 silver walks with the gold towards the 378 00:14:28,790 --> 00:14:27,279 green money or emerald city and then of 379 00:14:31,030 --> 00:14:28,800 course you have the scarecrow who is the 380 00:14:33,350 --> 00:14:31,040 american farmer you have tin man who is 381 00:14:36,310 --> 00:14:33,360 the american laborer and again the idea 382 00:14:38,470 --> 00:14:36,320 is this is the political allegory 383 00:14:42,069 --> 00:14:38,480 that the laborer is laid off that's why 384 00:14:43,829 --> 00:14:42,079 he's immobile well if you in in history 385 00:14:45,829 --> 00:14:43,839 in the history of the time the american 386 00:14:47,829 --> 00:14:45,839 labor was put back to work by the oil 387 00:14:49,990 --> 00:14:47,839 companies by people like you know jp 388 00:14:52,069 --> 00:14:50,000 rockefeller standard oil this is why the 389 00:14:54,550 --> 00:14:52,079 tin man needs to be oiled up to get him 390 00:14:55,990 --> 00:14:54,560 moving again or back to work um and then 391 00:14:57,350 --> 00:14:56,000 of course you have the one real quick 392 00:14:58,629 --> 00:14:57,360 i'll go to the other one i'll go to the 393 00:15:00,069 --> 00:14:58,639 other symbolism in a minute i'll just 394 00:15:01,350 --> 00:15:00,079 wrap up here but then of course you have 395 00:15:03,910 --> 00:15:01,360 the two little dancing crews of 396 00:15:04,870 --> 00:15:03,920 munchkins the lollipop league which is 397 00:15:07,910 --> 00:15:04,880 the um 398 00:15:09,910 --> 00:15:07,920 the uh unionized labor movement um the 399 00:15:11,990 --> 00:15:09,920 workers and then of course you have the 400 00:15:13,829 --> 00:15:12,000 lullaby league which is the women this 401 00:15:15,829 --> 00:15:13,839 is the women's suffrage movement with 402 00:15:17,509 --> 00:15:15,839 that was waking up at this time that's 403 00:15:19,269 --> 00:15:17,519 why they were sleeping yet waking up 404 00:15:20,629 --> 00:15:19,279 that's why they're the lullaby league so 405 00:15:22,550 --> 00:15:20,639 you have this very deep political 406 00:15:24,470 --> 00:15:22,560 allegory going on in the wizard of oz 407 00:15:25,990 --> 00:15:24,480 but then you also had this idea of the 408 00:15:28,509 --> 00:15:26,000 initiation into what i would call the 409 00:15:30,949 --> 00:15:28,519 initiation into the mystery tradition 410 00:15:32,790 --> 00:15:30,959 neo-gnosticism uh within the wizard of 411 00:15:35,189 --> 00:15:32,800 oz and uh this is clearly intentionally 412 00:15:36,629 --> 00:15:35,199 done by the author of the book um l 413 00:15:38,790 --> 00:15:36,639 frank baum 414 00:15:41,430 --> 00:15:38,800 baum and his wife were members of madame 415 00:15:42,310 --> 00:15:41,440 blavatsky's theosophy movement oh my 416 00:15:43,910 --> 00:15:42,320 gosh 417 00:15:46,230 --> 00:15:43,920 yeah which yeah which was an occult 418 00:15:47,829 --> 00:15:46,240 movement it was basically neo-gnosticism 419 00:15:49,910 --> 00:15:47,839 so you have the idea and i'm just going 420 00:15:52,150 --> 00:15:49,920 over this very briefly but you have the 421 00:15:53,910 --> 00:15:52,160 idea of the girl um being whisked to the 422 00:15:55,990 --> 00:15:53,920 magical land up the ladder of the 423 00:15:58,230 --> 00:15:56,000 tornado this would be the latter of 424 00:16:00,470 --> 00:15:58,240 minerva the latter of mithras jacob's 425 00:16:02,150 --> 00:16:00,480 ladder um you know in masonry this is 426 00:16:04,230 --> 00:16:02,160 called the latter of the middle chamber 427 00:16:06,470 --> 00:16:04,240 that leads to wisdom so she goes up the 428 00:16:08,870 --> 00:16:06,480 ladder to receive gnosis 429 00:16:10,790 --> 00:16:08,880 to go on this magical adventure um where 430 00:16:12,550 --> 00:16:10,800 she's going to have an epiphany 431 00:16:14,389 --> 00:16:12,560 this is paralleled in alice in 432 00:16:16,310 --> 00:16:14,399 wonderland only alice goes down the 433 00:16:19,350 --> 00:16:16,320 rabbit hole um 434 00:16:22,069 --> 00:16:19,360 dorothy goes up up the tornado um and 435 00:16:23,910 --> 00:16:22,079 then she's she's in this magical land uh 436 00:16:25,509 --> 00:16:23,920 and and you know it's the idea that 437 00:16:27,910 --> 00:16:25,519 she's walking on the golden path of 438 00:16:30,310 --> 00:16:27,920 religion but of course in gnosticism and 439 00:16:32,629 --> 00:16:30,320 theosophy taught that religions lead to 440 00:16:34,550 --> 00:16:32,639 a false messiah which of course in the 441 00:16:37,110 --> 00:16:34,560 wizard of oz is the wizard who is a 442 00:16:39,829 --> 00:16:37,120 phony who's a fake um and he's a vi he's 443 00:16:41,749 --> 00:16:39,839 a vile he's a vile monster uh he's evil 444 00:16:44,150 --> 00:16:41,759 um and the idea of a beautiful land 445 00:16:46,470 --> 00:16:44,160 being ruled by the monster um has come 446 00:16:48,470 --> 00:16:46,480 straight out of gnosticism this is the 447 00:16:50,389 --> 00:16:48,480 the character that the wizard would be 448 00:16:51,670 --> 00:16:50,399 is called the demiurge he's this lesser 449 00:16:54,310 --> 00:16:51,680 creator god 450 00:16:56,389 --> 00:16:54,320 yeah exactly ruling the earth yeah yeah 451 00:16:58,550 --> 00:16:56,399 right yeah so she goes to this magical 452 00:17:00,150 --> 00:16:58,560 land and and blavatsky said in order to 453 00:17:03,829 --> 00:17:00,160 be initiated into the mysteries 454 00:17:05,909 --> 00:17:03,839 initiating to gnosis you have to have um 455 00:17:07,669 --> 00:17:05,919 fortitude and courage this is why 456 00:17:10,710 --> 00:17:07,679 dorothy has the three travelers who are 457 00:17:12,870 --> 00:17:10,720 looking for a brain a heart and courage 458 00:17:14,069 --> 00:17:12,880 um and then you know you have the idea 459 00:17:16,069 --> 00:17:14,079 of the two 460 00:17:18,710 --> 00:17:16,079 good women um the women who use the 461 00:17:20,870 --> 00:17:18,720 white kabbalistic magic there of the 462 00:17:22,390 --> 00:17:20,880 north and south and that's right because 463 00:17:24,630 --> 00:17:22,400 in order to move upwards towards 464 00:17:26,470 --> 00:17:24,640 ascencio towards apotheosis towards 465 00:17:28,950 --> 00:17:26,480 awakening you move up and down the 466 00:17:31,110 --> 00:17:28,960 ladder the two women who oppose her the 467 00:17:32,630 --> 00:17:31,120 one that's killed off immediately 468 00:17:35,029 --> 00:17:32,640 are the east and west these are the 469 00:17:36,390 --> 00:17:35,039 women who use the black magic um and the 470 00:17:38,630 --> 00:17:36,400 reason they're the east and west is that 471 00:17:40,710 --> 00:17:38,640 stagnation you can't see you can't 472 00:17:42,630 --> 00:17:40,720 achieve gnosis by moving left and right 473 00:17:44,070 --> 00:17:42,640 symbolically you can only achieve it by 474 00:17:46,230 --> 00:17:44,080 moving up and down 475 00:17:48,710 --> 00:17:46,240 so then you have the idea that dorothy 476 00:17:51,270 --> 00:17:48,720 finally has this epiphany um which for 477 00:17:53,830 --> 00:17:51,280 her is there's no place like home um she 478 00:17:56,070 --> 00:17:53,840 has this you know sublime awakening um 479 00:17:57,830 --> 00:17:56,080 then she finally gets returned home 480 00:17:58,789 --> 00:17:57,840 by the wizard of all things in a hot air 481 00:18:00,230 --> 00:17:58,799 balloon 482 00:18:02,310 --> 00:18:00,240 and again this is the idea that the 483 00:18:04,070 --> 00:18:02,320 wizard as the false messiah that 484 00:18:05,350 --> 00:18:04,080 religions are nothing but hot air so 485 00:18:06,549 --> 00:18:05,360 he's going to take her back in the hot 486 00:18:08,950 --> 00:18:06,559 air balloon 487 00:18:10,870 --> 00:18:08,960 and of course when she gets back home um 488 00:18:13,510 --> 00:18:10,880 she realized you know no one understands 489 00:18:15,430 --> 00:18:13,520 the adventure um you know she's the only 490 00:18:17,990 --> 00:18:15,440 one who understands her you know 491 00:18:20,150 --> 00:18:18,000 conscious awakening her epiphany the 492 00:18:21,909 --> 00:18:20,160 farm hands no one else understands it so 493 00:18:24,549 --> 00:18:21,919 she's enlightened the others are the 494 00:18:25,830 --> 00:18:24,559 profane so it's this really this this i 495 00:18:27,510 --> 00:18:25,840 mean there's much more to it than this 496 00:18:29,590 --> 00:18:27,520 i'm just plowing over it for time 497 00:18:30,870 --> 00:18:29,600 reasons but there's this really you know 498 00:18:33,669 --> 00:18:30,880 you know there's this really deep 499 00:18:36,310 --> 00:18:33,679 theosophical gnostic um theme of 500 00:18:38,230 --> 00:18:36,320 self-awakening um having this adventure 501 00:18:41,110 --> 00:18:38,240 you know going on a a journey of 502 00:18:43,750 --> 00:18:41,120 self-revelation um in this in this 503 00:18:45,590 --> 00:18:43,760 magical land again this is paralleled in 504 00:18:47,669 --> 00:18:45,600 in uh lewis carroll's alice in 505 00:18:49,909 --> 00:18:47,679 wonderland but you have this gnostic um 506 00:18:51,990 --> 00:18:49,919 interpretation of alice excuse me of a 507 00:18:54,789 --> 00:18:52,000 wizard of oz then you have the political 508 00:18:56,789 --> 00:18:54,799 allegory piled on top of it um and this 509 00:18:58,710 --> 00:18:56,799 is a whole chapter in cinema symbolism i 510 00:19:00,470 --> 00:18:58,720 go into it much more in detail but you 511 00:19:03,029 --> 00:19:00,480 know just just right off the bat it's 512 00:19:05,110 --> 00:19:03,039 the political and this initiation into 513 00:19:07,110 --> 00:19:05,120 the mystery gnostic theme uh going on 514 00:19:09,750 --> 00:19:07,120 inside the wizard of oz 515 00:19:10,630 --> 00:19:09,760 wow all that going on and i never knew 516 00:19:18,390 --> 00:19:10,640 it 517 00:19:19,190 --> 00:19:18,400 probably 20 years since i've seen that 518 00:19:21,909 --> 00:19:19,200 film 519 00:19:24,390 --> 00:19:21,919 but i will watch it again now that we've 520 00:19:26,150 --> 00:19:24,400 spoken and i'm going to look for those 521 00:19:27,430 --> 00:19:26,160 things myself and they do make sense i 522 00:19:29,190 --> 00:19:27,440 have to say 523 00:19:32,549 --> 00:19:29,200 but i would have never looked at it in 524 00:19:34,549 --> 00:19:32,559 in quite that way how did you happen did 525 00:19:36,870 --> 00:19:34,559 were you just uh 526 00:19:38,470 --> 00:19:36,880 you just start began noticing 527 00:19:40,310 --> 00:19:38,480 that you were seeing these things in 528 00:19:42,310 --> 00:19:40,320 film and then you 529 00:19:43,590 --> 00:19:42,320 you know would see something else in 530 00:19:45,270 --> 00:19:43,600 another film and then you started 531 00:19:46,789 --> 00:19:45,280 realizing that this was a common 532 00:19:49,430 --> 00:19:46,799 occurrence 533 00:19:52,230 --> 00:19:49,440 that's kind of exactly what happened um 534 00:19:55,110 --> 00:19:52,240 the way that the how this book was born 535 00:19:56,390 --> 00:19:55,120 um cinema symbolism was was 536 00:19:57,669 --> 00:19:56,400 when i was on your show last time we 537 00:19:59,270 --> 00:19:57,679 were talking about the royal arch of 538 00:20:00,630 --> 00:19:59,280 enoch and i'm not going to go back down 539 00:20:02,630 --> 00:20:00,640 there but i just got to give a little 540 00:20:04,470 --> 00:20:02,640 background on this because it leads to 541 00:20:06,230 --> 00:20:04,480 the movie book was the royal arch of 542 00:20:08,470 --> 00:20:06,240 enoch was really a product of 20 years 543 00:20:10,870 --> 00:20:08,480 of research investigating you know like 544 00:20:13,350 --> 00:20:10,880 secret societies mysticism the occult 545 00:20:14,470 --> 00:20:13,360 astrology cabal all that all that stuff 546 00:20:16,549 --> 00:20:14,480 all that good stuff you mentioned 547 00:20:18,390 --> 00:20:16,559 earlier um and i i really was just 548 00:20:21,190 --> 00:20:18,400 writing this massive book about you know 549 00:20:23,669 --> 00:20:21,200 esoteric western hermeticism um and in 550 00:20:25,430 --> 00:20:23,679 royal arch the final chapter like i said 551 00:20:32,950 --> 00:20:25,440 when i mentioned earlier was kind of 552 00:20:37,029 --> 00:20:34,310 mean i know that has some inaudible 553 00:20:39,270 --> 00:20:37,039 overtones but on overtones but on a much 554 00:20:41,029 --> 00:20:39,280 deeper level um the the not the first 555 00:20:43,669 --> 00:20:41,039 national treasure movie is actually a 556 00:20:45,510 --> 00:20:43,679 masonic ritual um it's the royal arch of 557 00:20:48,549 --> 00:20:45,520 enoch ceremonial it's the recovery of 558 00:20:49,990 --> 00:20:48,559 the uh secret underground treasure vault 559 00:20:51,590 --> 00:20:50,000 that contains all the treasure beneath 560 00:20:53,029 --> 00:20:51,600 the holy ground that's the royal arts 561 00:20:54,870 --> 00:20:53,039 ritual and of course that's the movie 562 00:20:56,710 --> 00:20:54,880 that's the first national treasure movie 563 00:20:59,510 --> 00:20:56,720 and i started to see these exact same 564 00:21:01,350 --> 00:20:59,520 themes um in the da vinci code movie um 565 00:21:03,510 --> 00:21:01,360 which is what i describe in royal arches 566 00:21:05,270 --> 00:21:03,520 a temple to the number 13. 567 00:21:07,750 --> 00:21:05,280 and again this is paralleling this royal 568 00:21:09,270 --> 00:21:07,760 arch ritual that was originally the 13th 569 00:21:11,590 --> 00:21:09,280 degree in the right of perfection and it 570 00:21:13,909 --> 00:21:11,600 deals with wisdom and the restoration of 571 00:21:16,149 --> 00:21:13,919 knowledge when you watch watch da vinci 572 00:21:18,149 --> 00:21:16,159 code every time they need a clue or they 573 00:21:20,230 --> 00:21:18,159 need wisdom the number 13 will come up 574 00:21:21,830 --> 00:21:20,240 on the screen in one one way or another 575 00:21:24,310 --> 00:21:21,840 it's fascinating it's a fascinating 576 00:21:25,270 --> 00:21:24,320 study so i was beginning to see it there 577 00:21:27,029 --> 00:21:25,280 and 578 00:21:28,630 --> 00:21:27,039 what i i was really interested in the 579 00:21:30,390 --> 00:21:28,640 subject matter like i said it was the 580 00:21:31,990 --> 00:21:30,400 last chapter of royal arch and i was 581 00:21:34,230 --> 00:21:32,000 seeing this stuff in other movies but it 582 00:21:36,390 --> 00:21:34,240 really wasn't necessarily masonic per se 583 00:21:38,789 --> 00:21:36,400 in some cases it was so i really what i 584 00:21:41,430 --> 00:21:38,799 did was i took that 20 years of research 585 00:21:43,350 --> 00:21:41,440 um and turned it on hollywood um and 586 00:21:45,510 --> 00:21:43,360 like i said i was noticing this stuff 587 00:21:47,190 --> 00:21:45,520 and then you know i i you know i started 588 00:21:50,149 --> 00:21:47,200 watching the matrix movies which are 589 00:21:51,590 --> 00:21:50,159 very gnostic um the the star wars movies 590 00:21:53,909 --> 00:21:51,600 which incorporate a lot of the works of 591 00:21:56,310 --> 00:21:53,919 joseph campbell and and the monomyth and 592 00:21:58,470 --> 00:21:56,320 the solar allegory the the christ-like 593 00:22:00,950 --> 00:21:58,480 savior figure you you'll find this 594 00:22:03,669 --> 00:22:00,960 character as frodo baggins and lord of 595 00:22:06,230 --> 00:22:03,679 the rings neo in the matrix 596 00:22:07,830 --> 00:22:06,240 uh things like that um and i just 597 00:22:10,310 --> 00:22:07,840 started seeing it and you know you'd sit 598 00:22:11,590 --> 00:22:10,320 down and watch a movie i'd see something 599 00:22:13,029 --> 00:22:11,600 and then you know 600 00:22:15,590 --> 00:22:13,039 i kind of start watching the movie 601 00:22:16,950 --> 00:22:15,600 through a symbolic lens um and like i 602 00:22:19,029 --> 00:22:16,960 said it would take two or three more 603 00:22:21,029 --> 00:22:19,039 times at least um and then you just 604 00:22:23,190 --> 00:22:21,039 started picking up on stuff and it just 605 00:22:26,230 --> 00:22:23,200 became so obvious to me that this was 606 00:22:28,149 --> 00:22:26,240 being intentionally done um and and and 607 00:22:29,830 --> 00:22:28,159 you know you know the movie makers the 608 00:22:31,750 --> 00:22:29,840 filmmakers the director's crew so we'll 609 00:22:33,350 --> 00:22:31,760 give you a little tip tips tip offs of 610 00:22:35,830 --> 00:22:33,360 this um you would see things that would 611 00:22:39,029 --> 00:22:35,840 be repeating the emphasis on a certain 612 00:22:41,430 --> 00:22:39,039 number um and and it was just you know i 613 00:22:42,630 --> 00:22:41,440 i was just seeing it and i i had seen it 614 00:22:44,789 --> 00:22:42,640 enough that i knew it wasn't a 615 00:22:46,950 --> 00:22:44,799 coincidence at this point anymore so i 616 00:22:48,789 --> 00:22:46,960 really took that 20 years of research 617 00:22:50,310 --> 00:22:48,799 and turned it on hollywood 618 00:22:52,310 --> 00:22:50,320 and like i said i only talked about 619 00:22:55,750 --> 00:22:52,320 movies that i was absolutely certain 620 00:22:56,870 --> 00:22:55,760 this esoterica was being presented in 621 00:22:59,270 --> 00:22:56,880 well 622 00:23:01,909 --> 00:22:59,280 it's really interesting it it seems like 623 00:23:03,909 --> 00:23:01,919 too like you were talking about uh for 624 00:23:05,510 --> 00:23:03,919 instance uh 625 00:23:08,549 --> 00:23:05,520 you know alice in wonderland through the 626 00:23:10,950 --> 00:23:08,559 looking glass by by lewis carroll and 627 00:23:13,029 --> 00:23:10,960 how there were you know in his writing 628 00:23:16,149 --> 00:23:13,039 he incorporated a lot of stuff which you 629 00:23:19,350 --> 00:23:16,159 know i totally agree with uh 630 00:23:21,029 --> 00:23:19,360 and then that translated into the film 631 00:23:22,710 --> 00:23:21,039 but now when you're talking about the da 632 00:23:24,310 --> 00:23:22,720 vinci code i know that there were 633 00:23:26,470 --> 00:23:24,320 certainly hidden things in the da vinci 634 00:23:29,350 --> 00:23:26,480 code i actually made a movie about you 635 00:23:31,190 --> 00:23:29,360 know on that subject myself 636 00:23:33,430 --> 00:23:31,200 but 637 00:23:35,110 --> 00:23:33,440 it sounds like what you're saying is 638 00:23:38,310 --> 00:23:35,120 that there were things that weren't in 639 00:23:41,190 --> 00:23:38,320 the book that the filmmakers then added 640 00:23:43,510 --> 00:23:41,200 in the imagery like in the da vinci code 641 00:23:45,430 --> 00:23:43,520 i don't remember the number 13 coming up 642 00:23:46,789 --> 00:23:45,440 all the time unless i'm just having a 643 00:23:47,830 --> 00:23:46,799 brain fade 644 00:23:49,350 --> 00:23:47,840 i'm not talking about the movie i'm 645 00:23:51,110 --> 00:23:49,360 talking about in the book 646 00:23:53,190 --> 00:23:51,120 so this would 647 00:23:54,630 --> 00:23:53,200 i would think or it sounds like 648 00:23:56,870 --> 00:23:54,640 sometimes 649 00:23:59,590 --> 00:23:56,880 the material is embedded in the story 650 00:24:00,789 --> 00:23:59,600 itself or the or the imagery or the 651 00:24:03,430 --> 00:24:00,799 symbolism 652 00:24:06,149 --> 00:24:03,440 and other times it's being added after 653 00:24:09,430 --> 00:24:06,159 the fact into the film 654 00:24:11,430 --> 00:24:09,440 oh absolutely um absolutely um you know 655 00:24:13,669 --> 00:24:11,440 you you will find in some instances 656 00:24:16,230 --> 00:24:13,679 where the the the writer of the story 657 00:24:18,789 --> 00:24:16,240 such as ian fleming with the james bond 658 00:24:20,710 --> 00:24:18,799 stuff is obviously incorporating um you 659 00:24:22,789 --> 00:24:20,720 know esoterica into these books and it 660 00:24:25,350 --> 00:24:22,799 turns up in the movie um but then you 661 00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:25,360 have um you know like with the da vinci 662 00:24:30,070 --> 00:24:27,679 code um i have the i think it's on the 663 00:24:31,990 --> 00:24:30,080 dvd i have the blue right here where um 664 00:24:33,830 --> 00:24:32,000 howard the director ron howard was 665 00:24:35,350 --> 00:24:33,840 giving an interview and he said well he 666 00:24:38,230 --> 00:24:35,360 said when we made this we put some stuff 667 00:24:39,669 --> 00:24:38,240 in the background um you know that you 668 00:24:41,029 --> 00:24:39,679 know like i know you know a couple times 669 00:24:42,470 --> 00:24:41,039 when they're going to the louvre you see 670 00:24:44,630 --> 00:24:42,480 the lay miz poster and this is a 671 00:24:47,110 --> 00:24:44,640 reference to victor hugo who is supposed 672 00:24:48,950 --> 00:24:47,120 to be in the priory of zion right then 673 00:24:51,269 --> 00:24:48,960 then he said then we put in this really 674 00:24:53,510 --> 00:24:51,279 deeper darker code he said in some 675 00:24:55,909 --> 00:24:53,520 instances i don't even know what it is 676 00:24:59,029 --> 00:24:55,919 um and i i document it more in the royal 677 00:25:00,870 --> 00:24:59,039 arch of enoch um but cut the number 13 678 00:25:02,789 --> 00:25:00,880 is just all is just all over the place i 679 00:25:05,029 --> 00:25:02,799 mean i know just a couple off the top of 680 00:25:07,269 --> 00:25:05,039 my head was the mona lisa was kept in 681 00:25:08,950 --> 00:25:07,279 hall 13 in the louvre um they show you 682 00:25:10,789 --> 00:25:08,960 that in the elevator 683 00:25:12,710 --> 00:25:10,799 the one part where the key stone is in 684 00:25:14,149 --> 00:25:12,720 the back of the van and of course a key 685 00:25:16,149 --> 00:25:14,159 stone comes straight out of royal arch 686 00:25:18,230 --> 00:25:16,159 symbology you can't have an archway 687 00:25:20,470 --> 00:25:18,240 without a keystone the time on the clock 688 00:25:22,549 --> 00:25:20,480 is 112. if you add that together you get 689 00:25:25,029 --> 00:25:22,559 13. there's other derivatives of the 690 00:25:27,990 --> 00:25:25,039 number 13 in that in that film uh it's 691 00:25:29,510 --> 00:25:28,000 escaping me but then you also have i 692 00:25:31,269 --> 00:25:29,520 mean clearly this is not in the book 693 00:25:33,110 --> 00:25:31,279 this is something that was added later 694 00:25:34,310 --> 00:25:33,120 um and you'll find this in the shining 695 00:25:37,029 --> 00:25:34,320 with um 696 00:25:39,590 --> 00:25:37,039 with kubrick um i mean the level that 697 00:25:41,350 --> 00:25:39,600 kubrick went to to add repetition and 698 00:25:44,710 --> 00:25:41,360 repeating numbers and none of this is in 699 00:25:46,310 --> 00:25:44,720 the book um you know and to symbolize 700 00:25:49,190 --> 00:25:46,320 the reincarnation going on in the 701 00:25:51,350 --> 00:25:49,200 overlook is so overwhelming um that you 702 00:25:53,909 --> 00:25:51,360 can almost craft the argument that that 703 00:25:56,310 --> 00:25:53,919 uh kubrick forgot to tell the movie um 704 00:25:59,350 --> 00:25:56,320 or forgot to make a horror movie um 705 00:26:02,070 --> 00:25:59,360 stephen king couldn't stand uh kubrick's 706 00:26:04,149 --> 00:26:02,080 version of the shining um and and the 707 00:26:06,870 --> 00:26:04,159 shining is nothing more i mean it's a 708 00:26:09,029 --> 00:26:06,880 great movie um but but the levels that 709 00:26:11,750 --> 00:26:09,039 that kubrick goes to to incorporate 710 00:26:14,470 --> 00:26:11,760 repetition and repeating numbers uh in 711 00:26:16,470 --> 00:26:14,480 that movie is is so off the chart uh and 712 00:26:18,070 --> 00:26:16,480 we could do a show on that by itself i 713 00:26:20,549 --> 00:26:18,080 mean clearly this is not not something 714 00:26:23,350 --> 00:26:20,559 um in in the book at all so you it works 715 00:26:24,630 --> 00:26:23,360 both ways um you will find uh when i 716 00:26:26,789 --> 00:26:24,640 like you know what we were talking about 717 00:26:28,789 --> 00:26:26,799 with balm's wizard of oz you will find 718 00:26:30,230 --> 00:26:28,799 these themes in the wizard of oz um and 719 00:26:32,230 --> 00:26:30,240 they translate into the movies but yeah 720 00:26:35,029 --> 00:26:32,240 i mean oftentimes you will find a 721 00:26:37,669 --> 00:26:35,039 filmmaker um who who who gets a hold of 722 00:26:39,990 --> 00:26:37,679 a book um and makes it into a movie and 723 00:26:43,669 --> 00:26:40,000 and you know just puts his own stamp on 724 00:26:46,310 --> 00:26:43,679 it um that this is uh not uncommon 725 00:26:48,390 --> 00:26:46,320 right yeah yeah it's a couple of couple 726 00:26:51,350 --> 00:26:48,400 layers here because there may be 727 00:26:55,029 --> 00:26:51,360 secret images that the the writer 728 00:26:56,870 --> 00:26:55,039 is uh is embedding in the story itself 729 00:26:58,070 --> 00:26:56,880 and then there could be other layers 730 00:26:59,990 --> 00:26:58,080 added by 731 00:27:02,470 --> 00:27:00,000 the filmmakers as they 732 00:27:04,870 --> 00:27:02,480 as they produce the film i would think 733 00:27:06,390 --> 00:27:04,880 now you immensely you mentioned ian 734 00:27:08,870 --> 00:27:06,400 fleming um 735 00:27:10,390 --> 00:27:08,880 a minute ago with the bond movies and 736 00:27:13,830 --> 00:27:10,400 and um 737 00:27:16,310 --> 00:27:13,840 and the bond stories now uh 738 00:27:18,310 --> 00:27:16,320 when i was looking into your material i 739 00:27:21,430 --> 00:27:18,320 saw that um 740 00:27:23,430 --> 00:27:21,440 ian fleming was friends with aleister 741 00:27:25,590 --> 00:27:23,440 crowley is that right 742 00:27:27,190 --> 00:27:25,600 yeah that's absolutely right crowley 743 00:27:29,590 --> 00:27:27,200 worked in british intelligence during 744

gold and dawn 1114 00:42:47,750 --> 00:42:46,319 business some say he he got into an 1115 00:42:49,990 --> 00:42:47,760 argument with a guy named mcgregor 1116 00:42:52,230 --> 00:42:50,000 mathers and and he had to go feud with 1117 00:42:54,470 --> 00:42:52,240 him um some claim that he just got bored 1118 00:42:56,710 --> 00:42:54,480 with the ritual and just gave it up um 1119 00:42:57,910 --> 00:42:56,720 but he was doing these rights 1120 00:42:59,510 --> 00:42:57,920 and he claims to have summoned this 1121 00:43:02,390 --> 00:42:59,520 stuff i mean he was he he wrote the 1122 00:43:05,190 --> 00:43:02,400 introduction to uh the modern copies of 1123 00:43:06,710 --> 00:43:05,200 ours croatia the lesser key of solomon 1124 00:43:10,550 --> 00:43:06,720 um which is this book you know this book 1125 00:43:14,150 --> 00:43:12,630 yeah right which he claims to have um 1126 00:43:16,069 --> 00:43:14,160 whether you want to believe it or not is 1127 00:43:18,230 --> 00:43:16,079 up really to you but i mean he you know 1128 00:43:19,670 --> 00:43:18,240 or to the person listening um but he 1129 00:43:21,750 --> 00:43:19,680 claims to have done this and certainly 1130 00:43:24,870 --> 00:43:21,760 winston churchill took this seriously 1131 00:43:27,109 --> 00:43:24,880 enough churchill was a freemason himself 1132 00:43:29,430 --> 00:43:27,119 so um you know crowley came up with this 1133 00:43:31,349 --> 00:43:29,440 idea with hess to to try to you know 1134 00:43:33,589 --> 00:43:31,359 perform some sort of croatia magic in 1135 00:43:35,670 --> 00:43:33,599 front of him um and like i said fleming 1136 00:43:37,349 --> 00:43:35,680 thought it was a good idea um but 1137 00:43:39,670 --> 00:43:37,359 against you know you know churchill 1138 00:43:41,910 --> 00:43:39,680 eventually ixnated um you know or didn't 1139 00:43:43,670 --> 00:43:41,920 want to do it um but you know i mean 1140 00:43:45,109 --> 00:43:43,680 it's a fascinating story i mean it comes 1141 00:43:47,270 --> 00:43:45,119 definitely out of the realm of you can't 1142 00:43:49,510 --> 00:43:47,280 make this stuff up um just to just to 1143 00:43:52,150 -->

quite 1208 00:46:16,470 --> 00:46:14,560 a lot of influence and still does to 1209 00:46:18,390 --> 00:46:16,480 this day which is 1210 00:46:19,829 --> 00:46:18,400 kind of amazing 1211 00:46:22,630 --> 00:46:19,839 it's weird though that you said he 1212 00:46:24,630 --> 00:46:22,640 viewed himself as a white magician and i 1213 00:46:26,150 --> 00:46:24,640 mean because in his images and his 1214 00:46:28,550 --> 00:46:26,160 pictures it looked like he went out of 1215 00:46:30,950 --> 00:46:28,560 his way to look kind of 1216 00:46:33,430 --> 00:46:30,960 dark and foreboding 1217 00:46:37,349 --> 00:46:33,440 yeah he he he viewed himself as the good 1218 00:46:38,390 --> 00:46:37,359 guy um he you know he he he he uses he 1219 00:46:39,589 --> 00:46:38,400 does do 1220 00:46:41,190 --> 00:46:39,599 rituals that would definitely be 1221 00:46:42,710 --> 00:46:41,200 considered black magic but he would say 1222 00:46:44,790 --> 00:46:42,720 to you well i'm doing it to gain 1223 00:46:47,030 --> 00:46:44,800 knowledge so that's okay well you know 1224 00:46:48,390 --> 00:46:47,040 i'm doing it for a pure reason and if 1225 00:46:49,990 --> 00:46:48,400 you read the works of medieval 1226 00:46:52,069 --> 00:46:50,000 renaissance guys like you know 1227 00:46:53,910 --> 00:46:52,079 alchemists and kabbalists um they kind 1228 00:46:55,990 --> 00:46:53,920 of say the same thing they said if you 1229 00:46:57,190 --> 00:46:56,000 you know if you're conjuring you know i 1230 00:46:59,109 --> 00:46:57,200 mean this comes out of the world of 1231 00:47:01,349 --> 00:46:59,119 cornelius agrippa he had he wrote a book 1232 00:47:04,390 --> 00:47:01,359 on three books of a cult philosophy this 1233 00:47:07,190 --> 00:47:04,400 is this is back in the you know medieval 1234 00:47:08,550 --> 00:47:07,200 renaissance uh tradition of this and um 1235 00:47:10,230 --> 00:47:08,560 you know i mean he says in the book he 1236 00:47:11,750 --> 00:47:10,240 said you know if you're summing a demon 1237 00:47:14,950 --> 00:47:11,760 but you're using the demon for a 1238 00:47:16,390 --> 00:47:14,960 positive reason it's okay um so you know 1239 00:47:17,829 --> 00:47:16,400 whether whether you want to buy into 1240 00:47:20,630 --> 00:47:17,839 that but yeah crowley views himself as 1241 00:47:22,230 --> 00:47:20,640 the white magician um just real quick 1242 00:47:24,470 --> 00:47:22,240 i mean you're absolutely right with his 1243 00:47:25,750 --> 00:47:24,480 influence i mean you know his influence 1244 00:47:27,109 --> 00:47:25,760 yeah i mean you

story short 1275 00:48:36,470 --> 00:48:34,160 crowley wrote a novel called moon child 1276 00:48:39,270 --> 00:48:36,480 um which has to do with the the birth of 1277 00:48:41,190 --> 00:48:39,280

00:49:04,069 --> 00:49:02,240 weight um that's kind of an obvious 1289 00:49:06,549 --> 00:49:04,079 reference so yeah i mean just you know 1290 00:49:07,829 --> 00:49:06,559 crowley kind of um sees himself as a 1291 00:49:09,750 --> 00:49:07,839 white magician but i mean let's be 1292 00:49:11,750 --> 00:49:09,760 brutally honest i mean the guy is very 1293 00:49:14,710 --> 00:49:11,760 sardonic i mean he was into some dark 1294 00:49:17,589 --> 00:49:14,720 magics um and i mean that's completely 1295 00:49:19,190 --> 00:49:17,599 irrefutable i mean he's a weird guy um 1296 00:49:21,670 -->

want to call it a 1302 00:49:33,589 --> 00:49:32,079 character flaw um he had this proclivity 1303 00:49:35,910 --> 00:49:33,599 for dumping on people that seemed to 1304 00:49:38,390 --> 00:49:35,920 genuinely care about it talked about him 1305 00:49:40,950 --> 00:49:38,400 he did it his whole life um why he did 1306 00:49:42,790 --> 00:49:40,960 that is anyone's guess um some even now 1307 00:49:44,549 --> 00:49:42,800 are suggesting that uh this was part of 1308 00:49:46,390 --> 00:49:44,559 his espionage that he would he would 1309 00:49:48,950 --> 00:49:46,400 butter himself up to

him or he had no more knowledge to glean 1313 00:49:55,910 --> 00:49:54,160 from them you know he just threw him 1314 00:49:57,589 --> 00:49:55,920 under the bus and this could have also 1315 00:49:59,430 --> 00:49:57,599 been part of his espionage we'll 1316 00:50:01,910 --> 00:49:59,440 probably never know 1317 00:50:03,190 --> 00:50:01,920 yeah absolutely 1318 00:50:04,630 -->

00:50:21,359 the making sure a lot of people were 1329 00:50:25,190 --> 00:50:23,280 interested in that 1330 00:50:26,309 --> 00:50:25,200 yeah i mean would you ask me 1331 00:50:27,510 -->

00:50:32,790 --> 00:50:30,079 haven't seen it but no the matrix is 1335 00:50:35,589 --> 00:50:32,800 something um the the three matrix movies 1336 00:50:38,309 --> 00:50:35,599 are um are movies that i took on in 1337 00:50:41,270 --> 00:50:38,319 cinema symbolism um the really these are 1338 00:50:43,510 --> 00:50:41,280 very gnostic movies um especially the 1339 00:50:44,710 --> 00:50:43,520 first matrix movie where you have the 1340 00:50:46,790 --> 00:50:44,720 entire 1341 00:50:48,790 --> 00:50:46,800 i'm again you know i'm going to try to 1342 00:50:50,710 --> 00:50:48,800 go through this as quickly as possible i 1343 00:50:52,390 --> 00:50:50,720 know i'll be leaving a lot out but you 1344 00:50:55,030 --> 00:50:52,400 have the idea you know within the 1345 00:50:57,190 --> 00:50:55,040 gnostic religion of the material world 1346 00:50:59,829 --> 00:50:57,200 um you know and the idea is that the 1347 00:51:02,309 --> 00:50:59,839 material world and materialism is evil 1348 00:51:04,069 --> 00:51:02,319 it's it's the falsehood um and this is 1349 00:51:05,990 --> 00:51:04,079 again the works of this lesser god 1350 00:51:09,670 --> 00:51:06,000 called the demiurge and that you should 1351 00:51:13,190 --> 00:51:09,680 shrug this off and and pursue push push 1352 00:51:16,470 --> 00:51:13,200 excuse me pursue truth and spirituality 1353 00:51:18,069 --> 00:51:16,480 and spiritual growth um and and and you 1354 00:51:19,750 --> 00:51:18,079 know by doing this by rejecting 1355 00:51:22,309 --> 00:51:19,760 materialism you live in a state of 1356 00:51:24,230 --> 00:51:22,319 poverty so you have you know and i'll 1357 00:51:27,349 --> 00:51:24,240 explain this more as i go along you have 1358 00:51:29,589 --> 00:51:27,359 in the matrix you have neo who you know 1359 00:51:33,190 --> 00:51:29,599 realizes he's in this phony world it's 1360 00:51:35,109 --> 00:51:33,200 no good um and and he wants to leave it 1361 00:51:38,589 --> 00:51:35,119 and he wants to be wiser he wants to be 1362 00:51:41,270 --> 00:51:38,599 spiritual um so he he goes into the 1363 00:51:43,349 --> 00:51:41,280 quasi-masonic temple with trinity i mean 1364 00:51:46,230 --> 00:51:43,359 of course the name trinity is all is 1365 00:51:49,190 --> 00:51:46,240 completely gnostic um this is his sacred 1366 00:51:51,190 --> 00:51:49,200 feminine um and you know this comes out 1367 00:51:54,069 --> 00:51:51,200 of the world of the naghamani gnostic 1368 00:51:56,150 --> 00:51:54,079 library where the holy trinity was uh 1369 00:51:58,549 --> 00:51:56,160 one of the elements was sophia which is 1370 00:52:01,109 --> 00:51:58,559 divine wisdom so he goes with the divine 1371 00:52:03,030 --> 00:52:01,119 wisdom sophia trinity to this masonic 1372 00:52:05,990 --> 00:52:03,040 temple goes up the flight of steps to 1373 00:52:08,710 --> 00:52:06,000 meet morpheus um part of gnosticism is 1374 00:52:10,950 --> 00:52:08,720 dualism you know man and woman sun and 1375 00:52:13,990 --> 00:52:10,960 moon good and evil so of course the name 1376 00:52:16,150 --> 00:52:14,000 morpheus is dualistic um in mythology 1377 00:52:18,069 --> 00:52:16,160 morpheus is the god of dreams and sleep 1378 00:52:20,630 --> 00:52:18,079 yet it's going to be morpheus who pulls 1379 00:52:22,309 --> 00:52:20,640 um neo out of the out of the out

00:52:32,640 flushed down the toilet by the machines 1386 00:52:37,750 --> 00:52:36,160 um and and he gets lifted um cruciform 1387 00:52:39,750 --> 00:52:37,760 up towards the light 1388 00:52:41,270 --> 00:52:39,760 into the belly of the nebuchadnezzar 1389 00:52:43,829 --> 00:52:41,280 this is announcing neo is going to be 1390 00:52:45,510 --> 00:52:43,839 this christ-like savior of mankind

00:52:59,280 the matrix movies this is confirmed um 1397 00:53:02,630 --> 00:53:00,880 when he's on board the ship and this is 1398 00:53:04,790 --> 00:53:02,640 in the first matrix he goes into the 1399 00:53:06,150 --> 00:53:04,800 bridge and you'll see the nameplate um 1400 00:53:09,030 --> 00:53:06,160 the manufacturer plate of the 1401 00:53:10,790 --> 00:53:09,040 nebuchadnezzar and it says mark 3 11. um 1402 00:53:13,750 --> 00:53:10,800 that's a reference to the biblical verse 1403 00:53:16,549 --> 00:53:13,760 mark 3 11 which is thou art the son of 1404 00:53:18,870 --> 00:53:16,559 man and all dark demons bow down before 1405 00:53:20,950 --> 00:53:18,880 you so this is announcing neo as this 1406 00:53:23,270 --> 00:53:20,960 christ-like savior you get into other 1407 00:53:26,230 --> 00:53:23,280 gnostic themes um of the idea of the 1408 00:53:27,829 --> 00:53:26,240 crew of the ship um living in poverty 1409 00:53:30,790 --> 00:53:27,839 but they're spiritual they're they're 1410 00:53:32,710 --> 00:53:30,800 awake um they've received gnosis um 1411 00:53:34,870 --> 00:53:32,720 they've shrugged off the material world 1412 00:53:37,910 --> 00:53:34,880 this comes from the world of a gnostic 1413 00:53:39,990 --> 00:53:37,920 teacher um known as valentinious um and 1414 00:53:42,150 --> 00:53:40,000 then you also have this other gnostic um 1415 00:53:44,710 --> 00:53:42,160 teacher named manny i mean he taught 1416 00:53:46,630 --> 00:53:44,720 this vast system of cosmology which is 1417 00:53:48,230 --> 00:53:46,640 basically good and evil light and dark 1418 00:53:50,549 --> 00:53:48,240 so you have the good guys versus the 1419 00:53:52,390 --> 00:53:50,559 evil machines light versus dark i mean 1420 00:53:55,750 --> 00:53:52,400 this is star wars the dark and light 1421 00:53:57,990 --> 00:53:55,760 side of the force it's the same thing 1422 00:54:00,230 --> 00:53:58,000 and then you have 1423 00:54:02,630 --> 00:54:00,240 um the idea of the demiurge the creator 1424 00:54:04,870 --> 00:54:02,640 of the false world this turns up in the 1425 00:54:08,150 --> 00:54:04,880 um second movie this is the architect of 1426 00:54:10,309 --> 00:54:08,160 all things and part of gnosticism was um 1427 00:54:12,630 --> 00:54:10,319 that the with helping the demiurge is 1428 00:54:13,990 --> 00:54:12,640 this group of angels called um the 1429 00:54:16,309 --> 00:54:14,000 archons and they're sort of the 1430 00:54:18,870 --> 00:54:16,319 enforcers of the architect these are the 1431 00:54:20,150 --> 00:54:18,880 agents in the matrix movie um and then 1432 00:54:21,510 --> 00:54:20,160 i'm just plowing through this believe me 1433 00:54:24,150 --> 00:54:21,520 there's a whole hell of a lot more to 1434 00:54:26,069 --> 00:54:24,160 this um but but you have the whole neo 1435 00:54:28,309 --> 00:54:26,079 as the jesus figure being killed and 1436 00:54:30,470 --> 00:54:28,319 resurrected um with the help of the 1437 00:54:32,309 --> 00:54:30,480 sacred feminine so of course he's bored 1438 00:54:34,230 --> 00:54:32,319 again and then what happens at the end 1439 00:54:37,109 --> 00:54:34,240 of the movie he ascends into heaven like 1440 00:54:40,069 --> 00:54:37,119 jesus um so you have the entire thing of 1441 00:54:42,309 --> 00:54:40,079 this gnostic fable um of coming to 1442 00:54:43,990 --> 00:54:42,319 gnosis of coming to knowledge shrugging 1443 00:54:47,829 --> 00:54:44,000 off the real world embracing the 1444 00:54:50,630 --> 00:54:47,839 spiritual world um and in in doing so um 1445 00:54:52,390 --> 00:54:50,640 neo has the divine spark within him lit 1446 00:54:54,150 --> 00:54:52,400 um and again this is part of the gnostic 1447 00:54:56,470 --> 00:54:54,160 teachings of the nagamani library you'll 1448 00:54:58,630 --> 00:54:56,480 find this in the gospel of thomas um 1449 00:55:01,910 --> 00:54:58,640 where where where neo now has this 1450 00:55:03,910 --> 00:55:01,920 divine purpose to defeat the machines um 1451 00:55:06,069 --> 00:55:03,920 and and go on and become the savior of 1452 00:55:08,150 --> 00:55:06,079 mankind you have some very interesting 1453 00:55:09,829 --> 00:55:08,160 numero you know you mentioned numerology 1454 00:55:12,309 --> 00:55:09,839 earlier um you have some very 1455 00:55:13,750 --> 00:55:12,319 interesting numerological references um 1456 00:55:15,190 --> 00:55:13,760 in the matrix and this is probably one 1457 00:55:18,630 --> 00:55:15,200 of the darkest 1458 00:55:20,790 --> 00:55:18,640 911 references pre-911 reference is is 1459 00:55:23,109 --> 00:55:20,800 the is neo's passport when he's being 1460 00:55:25,670 --> 00:55:23,119 interrogated by smith at the beginning 1461 00:55:28,870 --> 00:55:25,680 of the movie um neo's passport actually 1462 00:55:31,109 --> 00:55:28,880 expires on september 11th 2001. 1463 00:55:33,349 --> 00:55:31,119 um 1464 00:55:35,270 --> 00:55:33,359 this was before 9 11. 1465 00:55:36,829 --> 00:55:35,280 yeah that's right the the matrix movie 1466 00:55:41,030 --> 00:55:36,839 came out in 1467 00:55:42,230 --> 00:55:41,040 1999 um and if you watch the movie um 1468 00:55:44,950 --> 00:55:42,240 there's a there's a scene where they 1469 00:55:47,190 --> 00:55:44,960 flash neo's passport um and there's two 1470 00:55:49,670 --> 00:55:47,200 dates on it it's his birth date which 1471 00:55:52,309 --> 00:55:49,680 has meaning um which has a dualistic 1472 00:55:54,470 --> 00:55:52,319 meaning and and the expiration date that 1473 00:55:58,630 --> 00:55:54,480 the birth date is the birth date of neo 1474 00:56:00,789 --> 00:55:58,640 is september 13 1971 which is dualistic 1475 00:56:02,549 --> 00:56:00,799 um that's the date of the attica prison 1476 00:56:05,270 --> 00:56:02,559 riots where the state suppressed the 1477 00:56:07,589 --> 00:56:05,280 prisoners but it's the birthday of the 1478 00:56:09,750 --> 00:56:07,599 savior who's going to free the prisoners 1479 00:56:11,589 --> 00:56:09,760 mankind from the matrix 1480 00:56:14,270 --> 00:56:11,599 and then the expiration date of the 1481 00:56:18,069 --> 00:56:14,280 passport is none other than september 11 1482 00:56:20,549 --> 00:56:18,079 2001. um this came out in 1999 so i mean 1483 00:56:22,789 --> 00:56:20,559 you have this very deep dark um 1484 00:56:25,190 --> 00:56:22,799 reference to 911 1485 00:56:27,510 --> 00:56:25,200 yeah it's kind of mind-blowing yeah oh 1486 00:56:30,390 --> 00:56:27,520 yeah yeah i mean it's hard to reconcile 1487 00:56:32,150 --> 00:56:30,400 do you have an explanation for that i 1488 00:56:34,549 --> 00:56:32,160 think there's only there's only one of 1489 00:56:36,710 --> 00:56:34,559 three ways to to to write it off one is 1490 00:56:38,870 --> 00:56:36,720 it's a coincidence which you know the 1491 00:56:40,309 --> 00:56:38,880 fact that it's the whole date um is hard 1492 00:56:42,710 --> 00:56:40,319 to do and especially when you're dealing 1493 00:56:44,309 --> 00:56:42,720 with themes of 911 and this is what 1494 00:56:46,230 --> 00:56:44,319 really the movie revolves around is the 1495 00:56:48,150 --> 00:56:46,240 idea of the death of the old world the 1496 00:56:50,390 --> 00:56:48,160 start of the new world you get into the 1497 00:56:53,670 --> 00:56:50,400 idea of a new solar savior the end of 1498 00:56:54,710 --> 00:56:53,680 pisces the start of aquarius um 1499 00:56:56,950 --> 00:56:54,720 so 1500 00:56:58,710 --> 00:56:56,960 then you have the idea um that it's a 1501 00:57:00,390 --> 00:56:58,720 dark conspiracy that it's being put in 1502 00:57:02,549 --> 00:57:00,400 there on purpose i don't know if i'm 1503 00:57:05,589 --> 00:57:02,559 ready to buy into that yet then the 1504 00:57:07,190 --> 00:57:05,599 other alternative is you have the idea 1505 00:57:08,789 --> 00:57:07,200 well you have the collective unconscious 1506 00:57:11,109 --> 00:57:08,799 but then you have to that begs the 1507 00:57:12,710 --> 00:57:11,119 argument is um not you know the idea of 1508 00:57:14,870 --> 00:57:12,720 the collective unconscious is that it's 1509 00:57:15,910 --> 00:57:14,880 inherited it's in the past but then you 1510 00:57:17,670 --> 00:57:15,920 have to then you're then you're 1511 00:57:19,430 --> 00:57:17,680 confronted with the idea is the 1512 00:57:22,390 --> 00:57:19,440 collective unconscious tapping into the 1513 00:57:23,750 --> 00:57:22,400 future as well um and and you know it's 1514 00:57:25,829 --> 00:57:23,760 the collective unconscious not only 1515 00:57:28,309 --> 00:57:25,839 echoing the past but can serve as a 1516 00:57:30,549 --> 00:57:28,319 vehicle um to as a prophetic device 1517 00:57:32,069 --> 00:57:30,559 almost um and that's a fascinating 1518 00:57:33,430 --> 00:57:32,079 subject matter and you get into movies 1519 00:57:35,270 --> 00:57:33,440 as prophecy 1520 00:57:37,829 --> 00:57:35,280 that's another talking point um you'll 1521 00:57:40,950 --> 00:57:37,839 find some really screwy things going on 1522 00:57:42,549 --> 00:57:40,960 with movies as prophecy um believe me i 1523 00:57:44,470 --> 00:57:42,559 mean this comes straight out of the book 1524 00:57:47,589 --> 00:57:44,480 of you can't make this stuff up but i 1525 00:57:50,470 --> 00:57:47,599 mean by far and away the the most uh 1526 00:57:52,150 --> 00:57:50,480 scariest and dangerous not pre-911 1527 00:57:55,030 --> 00:57:52,160 reference without question is neo's 1528 00:57:57,030 --> 00:57:55,040

01:02:56,480 ago and i was much much younger than 1615 01:03:01,109 --> 01:02:59,119 but it scared the bejesus out of me i 1616 01:03:02,870 --> 01:03:01,119 was afraid to go to sleep at night 1617 01:03:04,390 --> 01:03:02,880 because i was afraid that i was going to 1618 01:03:07,349 --> 01:03:04,400 get possessed 1619 01:03:09,990 --> 01:03:07,359 and i warned everyone i knew not to uh 1620

leave and he 1623 01:03:19,430 --> 01:03:17,760 only made it through about the first 1624 01:03:22,230 --> 01:03:19,440 quarter of the movie 1625 01:03:24,549 --> 01:03:22,240 and i was escorting him up the aisle and 1626 01:03:26,309 --> 01:03:24,559 i kept noticing him getting shorter and 1627 01:03:27,910 --> 01:03:26,319 shorter and shorter until he finally 1628 01:03:30,549 --> 01:03:27,920 just hit the ground 1629 01:03:32,789 --> 01:03:30,559 they actually had nurses on duty this 1630 01:03:34,789 --> 01:03:32,799 was a big publicity thing i lived in 1631 01:03:36,390 --> 01:03:34,799 tulsa oklahoma at the time and i saw it 1632 01:03:39,670 --> 01:03:36,400 at the bowman twin 1633 01:03:41,829 --> 01:03:39,680 theater they had a nurse on duty and she 1634 01:03:44,870 --> 01:03:41,839 actually came up and and ministered to 1635 01:03:46,950 --> 01:03:44,880 my poor passed out husband i had to take 1636 01:03:49,349 --> 01:03:46,960 him home but um 1637 01:03:51,750 --> 01:03:49,359 i actually had already seen the movie he 1638 01:03:53,910 --> 01:03:51,760 didn't believe how scary it was so i 1639 01:03:55,750 --> 01:03:53,920 made him go and then of course he never 1640 01:03:57,430 --> 01:03:55,760 said another word about it after that 1641 01:03:59,750 --> 01:03:57,440 but i mean 1642 01:04:03,349 --> 01:03:59,760 the stuff in there was pretty well all 1643 01:04:05,109 --> 01:04:03,359 in your face so what was hidden in there 1644 01:04:07,750 --> 01:04:05,119 well you have a lot of hidden themes in 1645 01:04:09,829 --> 01:04:07,760 that movie um that freaking is the 1646 01:04:11,510 --> 01:04:09,839 freaking and techniques that freaking 1647 01:04:15,510 --> 01:04:11,520 employees 1648 01:04:17,510 --> 01:04:15,520 um with this um you have um the idea of 1649 01:04:19,829 --> 01:04:17,520 i mean i'll just i'll start broadly and 1650 01:04:22,789 --> 01:04:19,839 i'll try to get smaller um you have the 1651 01:04:24,789 --> 01:04:22,799 entire idea of the of the girl and 1652 01:04:26,549 --> 01:04:24,799 georgetown in general which is where the 1653 01:04:27,910 --> 01:04:26,559 most of the movie takes place the girl 1654 01:04:30,150 --> 01:04:27,920 living living with the mother in 1655 01:04:32,230 --> 01:04:30,160 georgetown on the idea of darkness 1656 01:04:34,630 --> 01:04:32,240 invading um 1657 01:04:36,470 --> 01:04:34,640 the the the the town the campus and 1658 01:04:39,270 --> 01:04:36,480 eventually the the house and her of 1659 01:04:41,190 --> 01:04:39,280 course she gets possessed 1660 01:04:44,470 --> 01:04:41,200 and of course you have um you know 1661 01:04:46,230 --> 01:04:44,480 darkness associates with evil so how do 1662 01:04:47,990 --> 01:04:46,240 how do they kind of convey this to you 1663 01:04:51,029 --> 01:04:48,000 and and he he doesn't you know friedkin 1664 01:04:52,309 --> 01:04:51,039 does really this neat trick with this um 1665 01:04:54,390 --> 01:04:52,319 you know he doesn't flash it on the 1666 01:04:55,829 --> 01:04:54,400 screen but but the idea that you know 1667 01:04:57,670 --> 01:04:55,839 that that 1668 01:04:59,910 --> 01:04:57,680 this is something a lot of movie makers 1669 01:05:01,430 --> 01:04:59,920 play around with is weather um and and 1670 01:05:04,309 --> 01:05:01,440 the time of the year 1671 01:05:05,990 --> 01:05:04,319 and what you have in the exorcist is um 1672 01:05:07,270 --> 01:05:06,000 when the when the actress is walking 1673 01:05:09,990 --> 01:05:07,280 home from the photo shoot shoots 1674 01:05:11,589 --> 01:05:10,000 accosted by trick-or-treaters so this is 1675 01:05:13,109 --> 01:05:11,599 putting in your unconscious mind that 1676 01:05:15,270 --> 01:05:13,119 it's halloween 1677 01:05:17,430 --> 01:05:15,280 and halloween of course is the halfway 1678 01:05:20,150 --> 01:05:17,440 point between the autumn equinox and the 1679 01:05:22,549 --> 01:05:20,160 winter solstice when the days in the 1680 01:05:25,589 --> 01:05:22,559 northern hemisphere where light i.e you 1681 01:05:28,470 --> 01:05:25,599 know divine light is decreased and 1682 01:05:31,510 --> 01:05:28,480 darkness or evil is exalted so what he's 1683 01:05:33,910 --> 01:05:31,520 doing um by doing by showing you that is 1684 01:05:36,069 --> 01:05:33,920 is telling you that darkness is coming 1685 01:05:37,829 --> 01:05:36,079 that um you know the darkness is on its 1686 01:05:39,029 --> 01:05:37,839 way believe it or not i'll just face 1687 01:05:40,870 --> 01:05:39,039 what i'll get back to the extras in a 1688 01:05:42,789 --> 01:05:40,880 minute stanley kubrick does this exact 1689 01:05:44,710 --> 01:05:42,799 same trick in the in in the shining 1690 01:05:46,870 --> 01:05:44,720 movie when jack torrance gets to the 1691 01:05:48,309 --> 01:05:46,880 hotel the um 1692 01:05:50,390 --> 01:05:48,319 the the the 1693 01:05:54,230 --> 01:05:50,400 allman the the hotel manager tells him 1694 01:05:56,230 --> 01:05:54,240 that the hotel closes on october 30th um 1695 01:05:58,549 --> 01:05:56,240 and so you know that when they arrive at 1696 01:06:00,549 --> 01:05:58,559 the hotel it's halloween and again this 1697 01:06:02,630 --> 01:06:00,559 is the darkness coming um it's the 1698 01:06:04,710 --> 01:06:02,640 darker half of the year this is why all 1699 01:06:06,870 --> 01:06:04,720 the ghosts and the demons come out in in 1700 01:06:08,710 --> 01:06:06,880 the overlook the play because darkness 1701 01:06:11,190 --> 01:06:08,720 is exalted in the northern hemisphere 1702 01:06:13,670 --> 01:06:11,200 it's the same thing in the omen um or 1703 01:06:15,430 --> 01:06:13,680 excuse me in the in the exorcist by 1704 01:06:17,029 --> 01:06:15,440 planting that in there 1705 01:06:19,430 --> 01:06:17,039 he's telling you that darkness is on his 1706 01:06:21,670 --> 01:06:19,440 way then you have the idea or the the 1707 01:06:24,309 --> 01:06:21,680 character of damien carris the the 1708 01:06:26,549 --> 01:06:24,319 jesuit priest um he is going to be the 1709 01:06:29,430 --> 01:06:26,559 little girl's christ savior um he's 1710 01:06:32,230 --> 01:06:29,440 going to exercise the demon from her 1711 01:06:35,190 --> 01:06:32,240 he he is going to become her personal 1712 01:06:38,069 --> 01:06:35,200 god um this is what's called apotheosis 1713 01:06:40,150 --> 01:06:38,079 um and to symbolize this uh he does a 1714 01:06:42,549 --> 01:06:40,160 couple of friedkin does a couple unique 1715 01:06:45,750 --> 01:06:42,559 unique things on this one is um he 1716 01:06:47,910 --> 01:06:45,760 constantly is showing you um 1717 01:06:49,829 --> 01:06:47,920 terrace in a state of ascension 1718 01:06:53,430 --> 01:06:49,839 if you pay attention to the movie karis 1719 01:06:55,190 --> 01:06:53,440 is always moving up hills up stairways 1720 01:06:57,910 --> 01:06:55,200 and in fact when he's introduced into 1721 01:07:00,390 --> 01:06:57,920 the movie he's actually coming up from a 1722 01:07:03,029 --> 01:07:00,400 street onto a subway platform 1723 01:07:06,150 --> 01:07:03,039 um and to announce um carris as the 1724 01:07:07,829 --> 01:07:06,160 christ figure as the apotheosis uh the 1725 01:07:09,829 --> 01:07:07,839 apartheid you know the person who's 1726 01:07:11,109 --> 01:07:09,839 going to become the girl's apartheid um 1727 01:07:12,309 --> 01:07:11,119 apotheos 1728 01:07:14,390 --> 01:07:12,319 savior 1729 01:07:17,190 --> 01:07:14,400 he comes up from 33rd street of all 1730 01:07:19,990 --> 01:07:17,200 things and of course 33rd is a reference 1731 01:07:23,029 --> 01:07:20,000 um to jesus christ that's how many years 1732 01:07:24,789 --> 01:07:23,039 christ was on earth was 33 years um and 1733 01:07:26,150 --> 01:07:24,799 then of course but carys is always in a 1734 01:07:28,710 --> 01:07:26,160 state of doubt he's doubting his 1735 01:07:30,950 --> 01:07:28,720 religion um and and this is symbolized 1736 01:07:32,710 --> 01:07:30,960 at the end when he gets killed um he 1737 01:07:35,109 --> 01:07:32,720 falls down the flight of steps despite 1738 01:07:37,510 --> 01:07:35,119 the fact he saved the girl but but to 1739 01:07:39,270 --> 01:07:37,520 symbolize his his doubt that permeates 1740 01:07:41,109 --> 01:07:39,280 the whole family falls down the flight 1741 01:07:43,029 --> 01:07:41,119 of steps and in fact 1742 01:07:44,789 --> 01:07:43,039 when when charis is introduced coming up 1743 01:07:46,789 --> 01:07:44,799 from 33rd street he goes into his 1744 01:07:49,029 --> 01:07:46,799 mother's house you pay attention spray 1745 01:07:51,349 --> 01:07:49,039 painted on the wall um outside the 1746 01:07:53,430 --> 01:07:51,359 mother's house is the word quit um which 1747 01:07:55,510 --> 01:07:53,440 is actually symbolizing his his doubt 1748 01:07:56,789 --> 01:07:55,520 that permeates the whole movie works 1749 01:07:58,549 --> 01:07:56,799 yeah exactly 1750 01:08:01,589 --> 01:07:58,559 then you have 1751 01:08:04,309 --> 01:08:01,599 i'm jumping around a little bit here but 1752 01:08:07,109 --> 01:08:04,319 then you have terrace who um 1753 01:08:08,549 --> 01:08:07,119 who who like exercises the girl when 1754 01:08:10,789 --> 01:08:08,559 he's laying at the bottom of the steps 1755 01:08:12,470 --> 01:08:10,799 at the end dying you'll see spray 1756 01:08:14,150 --> 01:08:12,480 painted on the wall next to them on the 1757 01:08:16,630 --> 01:08:14,160 left side pigs 1758 01:08:18,709 --> 01:08:16,640 this is a reference to the 1759 01:08:21,189 --> 01:08:18,719 gospel tale of jesus exercising the 1760 01:08:23,910 --> 01:08:21,199 demon from the man and casting it into a 1761 01:08:25,910 --> 01:08:23,920 herd of pigs so we know the exorcism is 1762 01:08:27,990 --> 01:08:25,920 successful we know that charis has 1763 01:08:29,990 --> 01:08:28,000 gotten the demon out although it's cost 1764 01:08:31,669 --> 01:08:30,000 him his own life and again his doubt is 1765 01:08:34,630 --> 01:08:31,679 symbolized by him going down the flight 1766 01:08:37,030 --> 01:08:34,640 of steps you have the whole idea of of 1767 01:08:38,550 --> 01:08:37,040 light versus dark in this movie um and 1768 01:08:41,430 --> 01:08:38,560 of course you have the girl being 1769 01:08:43,110 --> 01:08:41,440 invaded by darkness um and and so how 1770 01:08:45,030 --> 01:08:43,120 does the mother get you know how's the 1771 01:08:47,349 --> 01:08:45,040 mother gonna cast the darkness out she 1772 01:08:49,430 --> 01:08:47,359 calls in the sun priests um the two 1773 01:08:52,149 --> 01:08:49,440 jesuits and of course the symbol for the 1774 01:08:54,229 --> 01:08:52,159 jesuits is the sun so you have you know 1775 01:08:55,910 --> 01:08:54,239 light versus dark the sun priests who 1776 01:08:58,229 --> 01:08:55,920 are going to cast out the evil demon 1777 01:09:00,070 --> 01:08:58,239 from the little girl um you have some 1778 01:09:02,229 --> 01:09:00,080 very other veiled imagery going on in 1779 01:09:05,189 --> 01:09:02,239 the exorcist that's very unique um the 1780 01:09:08,229 --> 01:09:05,199 one scene comes to mind where 1781 01:09:11,910 --> 01:09:08,239 chris mcneil um is sitting at the at the 1782 01:09:13,510 --> 01:09:11,920 institution um with the doctors um and 1783 01:09:14,789 --> 01:09:13,520 and and they've given up they don't know 1784 01:09:16,229 --> 01:09:14,799 what's wrong with the little girl this 1785 01:09:18,309 --> 01:09:16,239 is where she's becoming possessed and 1786 01:09:19,749 --> 01:09:18,319 it's getting worse and worse and and the 1787 01:09:21,430 --> 01:09:19,759 one doctor says something to the effect 1788 01:09:24,390 --> 01:09:21,440 of you know it's it's some some sort of 1789 01:09:26,630 --> 01:09:24,400 some manual or sleep disorder possession 1790 01:09:28,470 --> 01:09:26,640 disorder we don't know what it is and 1791 01:09:30,550 --> 01:09:28,480 and this is where you know chris is 1792 01:09:31,829 --> 01:09:30,560 really giving up and and finally the 1793 01:09:34,309 --> 01:09:31,839 doctor says have you ever thought of 1794 01:09:36,149 --> 01:09:34,319 exorcism and and you know you have you 1795 01:09:38,229 --> 01:09:36,159 you gotta you're gonna need a spiritual 1796 01:09:40,390 --> 01:09:38,239 cure for this little girl if you pay 1797 01:09:41,990 --> 01:09:40,400 attention to that scene um and this is 1798 01:09:44,950 --> 01:09:42,000 where really chris comes to the 1799 01:09:47,590 --> 01:09:44,960 conclusion that um that that a spiritual 1800 01:09:48,950 --> 01:09:47,600 cure is needed for the daughter um what 1801 01:09:50,789 --> 01:09:48,960 friedkin does is he does something 1802 01:09:53,110 --> 01:09:50,799 that's very unique he actually 1803 01:09:54,149 --> 01:09:53,120 replicates da vinci's last supper 1804 01:09:56,630 --> 01:09:54,159 painting 1805 01:09:59,110 --> 01:09:56,640 in that scene where you have chris the 1806 01:10:01,510 --> 01:09:59,120 mother as christ sitting at the head of 1807 01:10:05,189 --> 01:10:01,520 the table and she's surrounded by four 1808 01:10:07,590 --> 01:10:05,199 groups um of three doctors um and and 1809 01:10:09,830 --> 01:10:07,600 what this is symbolizing is that you 1810 01:10:12,229 --> 01:10:09,840 know the spiritual cure is needed for 1811 01:10:14,470 --> 01:10:12,239 the little girl and actually chris even 1812 01:10:17,110 --> 01:10:14,480 confirms this even further i can't 1813 01:10:18,390 --> 01:10:17,120 repeat the word um because you know i 1814 01:10:20,630 --> 01:10:18,400 just can't but she says something to the 1815 01:10:23,430 --> 01:10:20,640 effect of 88 doctors here and all of 1816 01:10:24,630 --> 01:10:23,440 your you know what um no one can help me 1817 01:10:27,270 --> 01:10:24,640 it's interesting she would pick the 1818 01:10:29,750 --> 01:10:27,280 number 88 um because in in greek 1819 01:10:33,030 --> 01:10:29,760 germatria the number 888 is actually 1820 01:10:34,630 --> 01:10:33,040 jesus christ um so you have that's going 1821 01:10:36,470 --> 01:10:34,640 on you have that veiled reference and 1822 01:10:38,550 --> 01:10:36,480 the and you know this is going on again 1823 01:10:40,630 --> 01:10:38,560 where freaking is symbolically creating 1824 01:10:42,950 --> 01:10:40,640 this last supper scene so in the in the 1825 01:10:46,709 --> 01:10:42,960 in the exorcist movie you have this 1826 01:10:48,310 --> 01:10:46,719 whole idea of apotheosis ascension um uh 1827 01:10:51,030 --> 01:10:48,320 the the you know the light versus 1828 01:10:53,910 --> 01:10:51,040 darkness um and some just very adroitly 1829 01:10:56,149 --> 01:10:53,920 concealed um subliminal messaging going 1830 01:10:57,830 --> 01:10:56,159 on with the trick-or-treaters with you 1831 01:11:00,550 --> 01:10:57,840 know with the last supper painting to 1832 01:11:02,870 --> 01:11:00,560 convey this overarching religious um 1833 01:11:05,510 --> 01:11:02,880 struggle of light versus dark caught 1834 01:11:07,189 --> 01:11:05,520 manichaean cosmology um of course in 1835 01:11:09,669 --> 01:11:07,199 christianity this is god versus the 1836 01:11:12,550 --> 01:11:09,679 devil light versus dark jesus versus you 1837 01:11:14,709 --> 01:11:12,560 know the you know the demons um and 1838 01:11:17,350 --> 01:11:14,719 going on in the exorcist you'll find 1839 01:11:19,990 --> 01:11:17,360 that the a lot of these same techniques 1840 01:11:22,550 --> 01:11:20,000 the same arcana the same symbolism um 1841 01:11:24,950 --> 01:11:22,560 being used in the movie um believe it or 1842 01:11:27,030 --> 01:11:24,960 not um gangs of new york uh the martin 1843 01:11:29,750 --> 01:11:27,040 scorsese movie um 1844 01:11:32,550 --> 01:11:29,760 scorsese uses similar techniques to 1845 01:11:34,870 --> 01:11:32,560 imbue the movie um with this whole 1846 01:11:37,750 --> 01:11:34,880 overarching religious stream uh 1847 01:11:41,030 --> 01:11:37,760 religious theme of amsterdam valen 1848 01:11:43,110 --> 01:11:41,040 versus bill cutting at god versus the 1849 01:11:44,790 --> 01:11:43,120 devil good versus evil it's a 1850 01:11:46,310 --> 01:11:44,800 fascinating study gangs in new york is 1851 01:11:48,149 --> 01:11:46,320 actually a movie i'm taking one in 1852 01:11:49,590 --> 01:11:48,159 cinema symbolism too but if you're 1853 01:11:51,990 --> 01:11:49,600 interested in the exorcist there's more 1854 01:11:53,590 --> 01:11:52,000 to it i get into it more into the book 1855 01:11:55,910 --> 01:11:53,600 cinema symbolism i have a whole chapter 1856 01:11:58,950 --> 01:11:55,920 on the exorcist in fact it's the first 1857 01:12:00,390 --> 01:11:58,960 um chapter of the book 1858 01:12:03,110 --> 01:12:00,400 right now 1859 01:12:05,990 --> 01:12:03,120 you just mentioned uh cinema symbolism 1860 01:12:08,630 --> 01:12:06,000 two so you are in the process of 1861 01:12:10,550 --> 01:12:08,640 writing a second volume yes that's 1862 01:12:12,550 --> 01:12:10,560 absolutely right um 1863 01:12:15,669 --> 01:12:12,560 renee when i was writing cinema 1864 01:12:18,870 --> 01:12:15,679 symbolism um what happened was 1865 01:12:21,189 --> 01:12:18,880 i took on um these three the three movie 1866 01:12:23,669 --> 01:12:21,199 series that involve a ton of arcana 1867 01:12:25,990 --> 01:12:23,679 joseph campbell's monomyth which is the 1868 01:12:28,630 --> 01:12:26,000 solar journey just a lot of mystical 1869 01:12:30,790 --> 01:12:28,640 themes religious themes i took on all 1870 01:12:32,310 --> 01:12:30,800 six of the star wars movies 1871 01:12:34,390 --> 01:12:32,320 both trilogies 1872 01:12:36,470 --> 01:12:34,400 i took on the matrix movies and then i 1873 01:12:39,030 --> 01:12:36,480 took on the lord of the rings movies my 1874 01:12:41,270 --> 01:12:39,040 original plan was after that i was going 1875 01:12:43,430 --> 01:12:41,280 to take on the eight harry potter movies 1876 01:12:45,430 --> 01:12:43,440 because this also ties into the christ 1877 01:12:47,270 --> 01:12:45,440 figure you know the the harry potter 1878 01:12:49,750 --> 01:12:47,280 going against the evil lord 1879 01:12:51,030 --> 01:12:49,760 um the evil dark lord but i thought you 1880 01:12:53,590 --> 01:12:51,040 know i mean i thought this book will 1881 01:12:55,189 --> 01:12:53,600 never end i mean there was just no way 1882 01:12:57,189 --> 01:12:55,199 yeah i mean there's just no way in how i 1883 01:12:58,630 --> 01:12:57,199 can take on any harry potter movies so 1884 01:13:00,709 --> 01:12:58,640 again the light bulb went off over my 1885 01:13:02,149 --> 01:13:00,719 head okay i thought well rather than do 1886 01:13:03,910 --> 01:13:02,159 that let's just take the harry potter 1887 01:13:05,830 --> 01:13:03,920 material out and i'll do another book 1888 01:13:07,270 -->

01:24:04,950 --> 01:24:02,719 surprise me 2184 01:24:07,990 --> 01:24:04,960 yeah i know i'm just thinking of all the 2185 01:24:10,470 --> 01:24:08,000 classic films gone with the wind and 2186 01:24:12,310 --> 01:24:10,480 films like that that you know i can see 2187 01:24:13,910 --> 01:24:12,320 how 2188 01:24:15,350 --> 01:24:13,920 you know now i'm gonna look at things in 2189 01:24:17,510 --> 01:24:15,360 a different way 2190 01:24:20,310 --> 01:24:17,520 and start to see if i can you know 2191 01:24:22,709 --> 01:24:20,320 figure out for myself you know if i'm 2192 01:24:25,270 --> 01:24:22,719 seeing something symbolic 2193 01:24:27,030 --> 01:24:25,280 or if it's just you know just what it's 2194 01:24:29,990 --> 01:24:27,040 appears on the surface 2195 01:24:31,750 --> 01:24:30,000 it's going to be really interesting 2196 01:24:33,590 --> 01:24:31,760 fascinating yeah it's a fascinating 2197 01:24:36,310 --> 01:24:33,600 study and like i said i just took on 2198 01:24:38,629 --> 01:24:36,320 movies that i was 100 convinced um that 2199 01:24:40,390 --> 01:24:38,639 this material was in um just real quick 2200 01:24:42,070 --> 01:24:40,400 uh you know i don't i won't go into too 2201 01:24:43,510 --> 01:24:42,080 long i mean there's been many movies 2202 01:24:45,350 --> 01:24:43,520 i've watched where i was expecting to 2203 01:24:47,910 --> 01:24:45,360 see you know i sat down to watch it with 2204 01:24:49,750 --> 01:24:47,920 my symbolic lens symbolic you know you 2205 01:24:51,590 --> 01:24:49,760 know to pay attention to it for for 2206 01:24:53,830 --> 01:24:51,600 hidden meanings and things like that and 2207 01:24:56,870 --> 01:24:53,840 i found nothing um so you know it's not 2208 01:25:01,910 --> 01:24:59,830 oh yeah no i i would imagine that it's 2209 01:25:04,550 --> 01:25:01,920 not but i would imagine it's in a lot 2210 01:25:07,110 --> 01:25:04,560 more than we might realize 2211 01:25:09,110 --> 01:25:07,120 even if it wasn't purposeful like you 2212 01:25:11,270 --> 01:25:09,120 said i mean there are different ways 2213 01:25:13,189 --> 01:25:11,280 that it that it can occur 2214 01:25:15,350 --> 01:25:13,199 because i think maybe some of these 2215 01:25:18,070 --> 01:25:15,360 artists might be you know as you said 2216 01:25:18,790 --> 01:25:18,080 picking up on the collective unconscious 2217 01:25:20,310 --> 01:25:18,800 but 2218 01:25:21,750 --> 01:25:20,320 uh 2219 01:25:23,189 --> 01:25:21,760 in your opinion a lot of them are 2220 01:25:25,430 --> 01:25:23,199 purposeful 2221 01:25:27,990 --> 01:25:25,440 it sounds oh yeah absolutely i mean i i 2222 01:25:30,390 --> 01:25:28,000 definitely think um that that you know 2223 01:25:31,750 --> 01:25:30,400 they're using this material um it's 2224 01:25:33,030 --> 01:25:31,760 really like you said at the beginning 2225 01:25:35,350 --> 01:25:33,040 it's like a it's like a painter 2226 01:25:37,669 --> 01:25:35,360 incorporating the golden ratio or sacred 2227 01:25:40,390 --> 01:25:37,679 geometry into a painting building you 2228 01:25:42,709 --> 01:25:40,400 know it's turning the movie um into a 2229 01:25:44,790 --> 01:25:42,719 living piece of mythology i mean my god 2230 01:25:46,470 --> 01:25:44,800 i mean i'm in my early 40s i was born in 2231 01:25:48,550 --> 01:25:46,480 the early 70s i mean there isn't a 2232 01:25:50,790 --> 01:25:48,560 person my age who doesn't know what star 2233 01:25:52,790 --> 01:25:50,800 wars is or you know hasn't quoted star 2234 01:25:54,709 --> 01:25:52,800 wars at some point i mean there you go i 2235 01:25:57,189 --> 01:25:54,719 mean that's the joseph campbell monomyth 2236 01:25:59,430 --> 01:25:57,199 it's a solar allegory it contains the 2237 01:26:02,070 --> 01:25:59,440 entire you know manichaean scheme of 2238 01:26:04,390 --> 01:26:02,080 light versus darkness luke skywalker i 2239 01:26:06,550 --> 01:26:04,400 mean his name is the sun the name luke 2240 01:26:09,510 --> 01:26:06,560 comes from the latin lux meaning light 2241 01:26:12,149 --> 01:26:09,520 what light walks across the sky the sun 2242 01:26:14,470 --> 01:26:12,159 um you know in in comparative religion 2243 01:26:16,709 --> 01:26:14,480 this is apollo the sun god who's 2244 01:26:19,430 --> 01:26:16,719 apollo's sister that would be the moon 2245 01:26:21,270 --> 01:26:19,440 diana well who's the sister and who's 2246 01:26:23,510 --> 01:26:21,280 luke skywalker's sister would that be 2247 01:26:25,830 --> 01:26:23,520 the moon princess lair who's always 2248 01:26:27,430 --> 01:26:25,840 wearing the white robes of the moon um 2249 01:26:29,830 --> 01:26:27,440 so i mean you know you know you you will 2250 01:26:32,149 --> 01:26:29,840 find this symbol you know these themes 2251 01:26:34,950 --> 01:26:32,159 that this mythology these archetypes 2252 01:26:36,870 --> 01:26:34,960 tarot embodiment um you know i mean i 2253 01:26:38,870 --> 01:26:36,880 mean it's which would you have the eye 2254 01:26:40,629 --> 01:26:38,880 for it you'll definitely see it and you 2255 01:26:42,390 --> 01:26:40,639 you will become convinced like i that 2256 01:26:44,149 --> 01:26:42,400 these guys know what they're doing and 2257 01:26:46,149 --> 01:26:44,159 they're using this material uh very 2258 01:26:48,709 --> 01:26:46,159 adroitly i might add 2259 01:26:50,709 --> 01:26:48,719 you know you know we've got 2260 01:26:52,870 --> 01:26:50,719 literally like two minutes left to go in 2261 01:26:55,590 -->

a tough question to 2271 01:27:17,110 --> 01:27:14,000 answer because my thought my methodology 2272 01:27:20,229 --> 01:27:17,120 is um unique to it um i i kind of just i 2273 01:27:22,310 -->
