The Lost Civilization of Atlantis is Ireland

The Lost Civilization of Atlantis is Ireland

A 2004 book investigating the myth of Atlantis said that the mythical island was almost certainly the island of Ireland. The claim was made by Swedish geologist Dr. Ulf Erlingsson3 in his book Atlantis from a Geographer’s Perspective: Mapping the Fairy Land. According to Erlingsson:4 This book is an attempt at permanently settling the question of whether the geographic description of Atlantis was based on a real place. The answer is a resounding yes. Beyond reasonable doubt, Plato based the geographic description on Ireland. Erlingsson bases his evidence on Plato's description of Atlantis, which matches Ireland almost perfectly. Statistically, the scientist claims, the probability is over 99.98% that Plato was describing Ireland. Erlingsson writes: Just like Atlantis, Ireland is 3,000 stadia long, 2,000 stadia wide, and widest over the middle. They both feature a central plain that is open to the sea, but fringed by mountains. No other island on earth even comes close to this description.

Ulf Erlingsson has a Ph.D. in Physical Geography from Uppsala University. His specialty is geological processes, under-water research, and natural disasters.  Ulf Erlingsson, Atlantis from a Geographer’s Perspective: Mapping the Fairy Land, p.11.

The Geodetic Measure of Ireland

According to Plato’s dialogue Critias, the island of Atlantis was “of an oblong shape, extending in one direction three thousand stadia, but across the centre inland it was two thousand stadia.”5 As you can see on the right6, Ireland is approximately an oblong shape, with width of 2,038 stadia and a height of 2,932 stadia. Plato states that Atlantis had mountains on three sides of the island, but the fourth side opened to a wide and fertile plain, which describes Ireland with uncanny accuracy. Plato further states the capital of Atlantis was located eis to kheniron tou nesou---“in the middle of the island"—a description that matches the ancient Irish capital of Tara perfectly. Plato was the first person to claim that the builders of the Egyptian pyramids came from Atlantis.

In his book, Dr. Erlingsson demonstrates that the Atlantic Empire can probably be associated with the megalithic monuments of Europe and Northern Africa. Their geographic distribution matches the extent of the Atlantic Empire as Plato described it. The Atlantean capital can be connected withTara, the legendary seat of the high king of Ireland. The temples of Poseidon and the ancestors match up well with the so-called passage tombs of Newgrange and Knowth, in the Boyne valley, which are the oldest roofed buildings anywhere in the world. According to Erlingsson, “The island Atlantis is Ireland, and the Atlantic Empire created the megalith culture.”7

According to Erlingsson, a four-feet granite stone basin in the eastern passage of Knowth may be engraved with a map of the city of Atlantis, as described by Plato. The three concentric circles match the three concentric lakes of Atlantis. A copy of the stone is displayed in the Boyne Valley visitor center. Concentric circles are a common topographical feature of Ireland, not least around the ancient seat of the High Kings at Tara.

Ptolemy’s 140 AD Map of Ireland

Ptolemy’s 140 AD map of “Hibernia” may document that Ireland was once the home of the supreme king—“exactly what Irish mythology claims that Tara was.”

"The land belongs to the Storm God alone!”

According to Dr. Erlingsson, Ptolemy’s 140 AD map of “Hibernia” may document that Ireland was once the home of the supreme king—“exactly what Irish mythology claims that Tara was.” To wit:8 We can get inspiration from another continent, from the Hittite Kingdom in Anatolia about 3,500 years ago. I quote from a clay tablet with cuneiform script inthe Hittite language:

"The land belongs to the Storm God alone! Heaven, earth and the people belong to the Storm God alone!  He has made Labarna, the king, his administrator and given all of Hatti to him. Labarna will continue to administer all of this land with his hand. May the Storm God destroy whomever may approach Labarna's person, [unreadable], and the borders." --- IBoT 1.30:2-8

It has been concluded that Labarna was the first king, but judging from the quote, Labarna could alternatively be the supreme king. Compare with the city on Hibernia, "Laberus". An unstressed syllable "-er- in Indo-European, was changed to -ar- in Germanic languages. Perhaps the same applies for the Hittite language,especially considering that those two language branches have been said to be close to one another. If so, then the town Laberus literally might be "Laberna'stown", meaning the town of the supreme king--exactly what Irish mythology claims that Tara was. 

According to Plato’s Critias, in ancient times, the Earth was divided among the gods of Atlantis by allotment, and the gods guided the rest of mankind not by force, but “by the rudder of persuasion”:9 

In the days of old, the gods had the whole earth distributed among them by allotment. There was no quarrelling; [the gods guided the human race] . . .as shepherds tend their flocks, excepting only that they did not use blows or bodily force, as shepherds do, but governed us like pilots from the stern of the vessel . . . holding our souls by the rudder of persuasion . . . thus did they guide all mortal creatures. 

Plato goes on to describe the origins of Atlantis. Plato said that Atlantis was allotted to Poseidon, who fell in love with a mortal girl named Clito. She bore him a number of children, the first of whom was Atlas, who inherited the kingdom and passed it onto his firstborn for many generations. Critias then goes into a great deal of detail in describing the island of Atlantis and then reiterates the remarkable virtue of the Atlanteans, saying:10

For many generations, as long as the divine nature lasted in them, they were obedient to the laws, and well-affectioned towards the god, whose seed they were; for they possessed true and in every way great spirits, uniting gentleness with

wisdom in the various chances of life, and in their intercourse with one another.  They despised everything but virtue, caring little for their present state of life, and thinking lightly of the possession of gold and other property, which seemed only aburden to them; neither were they intoxicated by luxury; nor did wealth deprive them of their self-control; but they were sober, and saw clearly that all these goods are increased by virtue and friendship with one another, whereas by too great regard and respect for them, they are lost and friendship with them.  However, according to Plato, the Atlanteans became corrupt:11

"...when the divine portion began to fade away, and became diluted too often and

too much with the mortal admixture, and the human nature got the upper hand,

they then, being unable to bear their fortune, behaved unseemly, and to him who

had an eye to see grew visibly debased, for they were losing the fairest of their

precious gifts; but to those who had no eye to see the true happiness, they

appeared glorious and blessed at the very time when they were full of avarice and

unrighteous power.

Plato’s Critias then says that Zeus--the god of gods--was determined to punish the Atlanteans because of their corruption:

Zeus, the god of gods, who rules according to law, and is able to see into such

things, perceiving that an honourable race was in a woeful plight, and wanting to

inflict punishment on them, that they might be chastened and improve, collected

all the gods into their most holy habitation, which, being placed in the centre of

the world, beholds all created things. And when he had called them together, he

spake as follows . . . .

Zeus began to speak, but unfortunately, the rest of the Dialogue of Critias has been lost.

Laberus – the Roaring Red Lion 

The Greek cartographer Ptolemy’s map of Ireland is the oldest known to exist. Charted around140 AD, Ptolemy places the town of “Laberus” where Tara should be. Who or what is“Laberus”, and what is Laberus doing where Tara is supposed to be?  In the Bible, the lion is the symbol of the tribe of Judah and the Maccabee Brothers. “Behold thelion that is of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, hath conquered to open the book, and to loosethe seven seals thereof.” -- Revelation 5:5. The Old Testament uses six different words for“lion” and one of them is Labi, from a root meaning "to roar," a grown lion or lioness

_____________________________________________________________________

(Gen.11 http://classics.mit.edu/Plato/critias.html49:9; Num. 23:24; 24:9; Ezek. 19:2; Nah. 2:11)12

Accordingly, the word “Laberus” may beparsed as follows:

• Labi = roaring lion

• Rus = red

• Labi + rus = Laberus = the Roaring Red Lion

The national flag of Scotland is the oldest in the world, and it features a roaring red lion--just like the roaring red lion of Laberus on Ptolemy's 140 AD map.  The Great Sphinx of Egypt (which is half-man and half-lion) still carries traces of the red paint which used to cover the entire Sphinx back in ancient times. According to Moses, the Lost Tribe of Dan is a “lion’s whelp”—a roaring red lion.

In the Old Testament, God is described as a roaring lion: “They shall walk after the LORD: he shall roar like a lion: when he shall roar, then the children shall tremble from the west.” – Hosea 11:10

Plutarch’s “Islands of the Blessed”

According to the Greek historian Plutarch (c. 46 - 120 AD), the Islands of the Blessed or the Fortunate Islands were “Atlantic islands, two in number, divided from one another only by a narrow channel, and distant from the coast of Africa ten thousand furlongs. These are called the Islands of the Blest . . . .”13 10,000 furlongs translates to 1,250 miles. The flying distance from Gibraltar to Dublin is 1,188 miles, but of course, if you were sailing from Gibraltar to the British Islands, Plutarch’s measurement is virtually flawless.

______________________________________________________________________

 12 No fewer than at least six different words are used in the Old Testament for the lion. (1.) Gor (i.e., a "suckling"), the lion's whelp (Gen. 49:9; Jer. 51:38, etc.). (2.) Kephir (i.e., "shaggy"), the young lion (Judg. 14:5; Job 4:10; Ps. 91:13; 104:21), a term which is also used figuratively of cruel enemies (Ps. 34:10; 35:17; 58:6; Jer. 2:15). (3.) 'Ari (i.e., the "puller" in pieces), denoting the lion in general, without reference to age or sex (Num. 23:24; 2 Sam. 17:10,etc.). (4.) Shahal (the "roarer"), the mature lion (Job 4:10; Ps. 91:13; Prov. 26:13; Hos. 5:14). (5.) Laish, so called from its strength and bravery (Job 4:11; Prov. 30:30; Isa. 30:6). The capital of Northern Dan received its name from this word. (6.) Labi, from a root meaning "to roar," a grown lion or lioness (Gen. 49:9; Num. 23:24; 24:9; Ezek.19:2; Nah. 2:11). http://biblestudy.churches.net/CCEL/E/EASTON/EBD/EBD/T0002300.HTM

Twenty-four (24) Ancient Narrative Sources that Describe Atlantis

Cedric Leonard of the University of Oklahoma has compiled a list of 24 ancient narrative sources that describe Atlantis (below).14 Although language is variable and changing over time, the homophonic similarity of the various names for Atlantis are noteworthy. For example, according to Philo, the island mentioned by Plato was called Atalantes. Herodotus called the Atlanteans the Atlantes, and Diodorus called the Atlanteans the Atlantoi. Similarly, the Aletae of Sanchuniathon were called the Auritae by Manetho. The Berbers of North Africa had a placenames called Attala, while the Sanskrit writings speak of an island in the Atlantic called Atala. Additionally, in the Americas, place-names for Atlantis include Atlan (Isthmus of Panama), Aztlan (Toltec mythology), Atitlan (Guatemala), and Aztalan (Wisconsin).

The Kings of Atlantis Were the gods of the Ancient World

• "According to the traditions of the Phoenicians, the Gardens of the Hesperides were in the remote west." Atlas—the king of Atlantis--lived in these gardens.15

• "The Elysian Fields (the happy islands) were commonly placed in the remote west. They were ruled over by Chronos."16 “The Elysian Fields was the final resting place for the souls of heroes and virtuous men. The ancients often distinguished between two such realms--the islands of the Blessed and the Lethean fields of Haides. The first of these, also known as the White Island or the Islands of the Blessed, was an afterlife realm reserved for the heroes of myth. It was an island paradise located in the far western streams of the river Okeanos, and ruled over by the Titan-King Kronos or Rhadamanthys, a son of Zeus.”17

• Tartarus, the region of Hades, the gloomy home of the dead, was also located "under the mountains of an island in the midst of the ocean in the remote west."18

• Atlas was described in Greek mythology as "an enormous giant, who stood upon the western confines of the earth, and supported the heavens on his shoulders, in a region of the west where the sun continued to shine after he had set upon Greece."19

• Greek tradition located the island in which Olympus was situated "in the far west," "in the ocean beyond Africa," "on the western boundary of the known world," "where the sun shone when it had ceased to shine on Greece," and where the mighty Atlas "held up the heavens."20

• Plato tells us that the land where Poseidon and Atlas ruled was Atlantis.21

• “The terms "Atala" and "White Island" are used also by the Bhavishya Purana (4th cent.BC). Here it is stated that Samba, having built a temple dedicated to Surya (the Sun),made a journey to Saka Dwipa [‘White Island’], located ‘beyond the salt water’ looking for the Magas (magicians), worshippers of the Sun. He is directed in his journey by Surya himself (i.e., journeys west following the Sun), riding upon Garuda (the flying vehicle of Krishna and Vishnu) he lands at last among the Magas.”22

21 Plato, Critias, http://classics.mit.edu/Plato/critias.html

22 Cedric Leonard, http://www.atlantisquest.com/Writings.html

Albion—the “White Island”--is the ancient name for Britain, and it is thought to derive from the white cliffs of Dover. It is also the basis of the Scottish Gaelic name for Scotland, Alba. Hindu religious texts speak of a sacred “White Island” that was located in the Western Ocean. “The White Island” concept associated with Atlantis is also found in Greek mythology, Aztec Mexico, North Africa, and India.

• “The Mahabharata (circa. 600 B.C.) also refers to ‘Atala, the White Island’, which is

described as an ‘island of great splendour.’ It continues: ‘The men that inhabit that island have complexions as white as the rays of the Moon and they are devoted to Narayana . . .Indeed, the denizens of White Island believe and worship only one God.’ (Santi Parva, Section CCCXXXVII)”23

• “Sekhet-Aaru was the Egyptians’ realm of the dead, but also their ancestral homeland on an island in the Distant West, from which their forefathers arrived at the Nile Delta in the Zep Tepi, or ‘First Time,’ at the start of dynastic civilization.”24

• In ancient Egyptian cosmology, Amenti was the western abode of the dead where the

souls of the deceased are judged by Osiris and punished or rewarded for their deeds.25

• “On the other side of the world, the Aztecs believed their ancestors came from an island kingdom in the Distant East, called Aztlan. Both Sekhet-Aaru and Aztlan mean ‘Field of Reeds.’ To the Egyptians and the Aztecs alike, reeds, employed as writing utensils, were symbolic of literacy and wisdom, implying that Sekhet-Aaru/Aztlan was a place of extraordinary learning.”26

• “Albion is the ancient name for Britain, “The White Island,” derived from the twin brother of Atlas. Albion was said to have introduced the arts of shipbuilding and astrology, the leading material features of Atlantis. “The White Island” concept associated with Atlantis is also found in Aztec Mexico, North Africa, and India. The spiritual arts Albion brought to Britain were believed to have formed the basis for Druidism.”27

• Tir-nan-Og is the “Celtic ‘Island of Youth,’ a tradition adopted from pre-Celtic Irish inhabitants and associated with Atlantean invaders of Ireland, the Tuatha da Danann. Its philological correspondence to Homer’s Ogygia, the biblical Og, the Greeks’ Ogygian

Flood, and so on, are all transparent references to Atlantis—an identification supported by Tir-nan-Og’s eventual demise beneath the sea

26 Frank Joseph, The Atlantis Encyclopedia, p. 246.

27 Frank Joseph, The Atlantis Encyclopedia, p. 18.

The widespread association of ‘og’with an Atlantis-like catastrophe defines its impact on various peoples.”28 Like Ireland, mythical Tir-nan-Og is supposedly an island paradise in the far west.

• “The Welsh and ancient English pointed to the western ocean for their Earthly paradise, which they called Avalon.”29

• “The Babylonians placed their paradise in the western ocean and referred to it as Aralu.”30

• “The Celtic tribes of Spain and also the Basques preserve traditions of their homeland in the western ocean; and the original Gauls of France, especially those in the western sections, had the tradition that their ancestors came from the middle of the western ocean as the result of a catastrophe which destroyed their homeland.”31

The Island “Homeland of the Primeval Ones” & Ward Hill

According to the Egyptian Book of the Dead, Thoth (i.e., the Egyptian equivalent of Hermes and Mercury) said that an illustrious civilization was destroyed by a Great Deluge: “I am going to blot out everything which I have made. The Earth shall enter into the waters of the abyss of Nun [the sea-god] by means of a raging flood, and will become even as it was in the primeval time.”32

The outer walls of the Egyptian temple at Edfu speak of the Zep Tepi--the gods of the “First Time”--who came from "the Homeland of the Primeval Ones," an island that sank during a catastrophic flood.

32 Frank Joseph, The Atlantis Encyclopedia, p. 267, and http://alvidk.tripod.com/id28.html

Thoth’s description of the catastrophe is reiterated in the Edfu Texts, which indicated that the “Homeland of the Primeval Ones” was a great island that sank with most of its inhabitants during the Zep Tepi, or the “First Time.” We are told that the creation of the world began on this island, but the “mansions of the gods” were suddenly overwhelmed by a great flood. Led by Thoth, only the “Seven Sages” or “Builder gods” escaped the cataclysm and settled in the Nile Delta, where they created Egyptian civilization.  So where was this island “Homeland of the Primeval Ones”?

In the Boyne Valley of Atlantis-Ireland, Ward Hill is also known as “Tlachta”, which means “the place of the First Time.” In the Nahuatl language:33

• “tla” = “the place of”34

• “achto” = “first time”

• Hence, Tla + achto = Tlachta = “the place of the First Time” = Ward Hill

Evidence that Ties the Druids to the Pharaohs & the Jubilee Year

Below, you will find some remarkable evidence that ties the Druids to the pharaohs of Egypt and the Jubilee Festival: Knight and Lomas “found it extremely interesting that Clayton said of the early jubilee or renewal ritual, that the early Egyptian kings at Abydos wore tightly fitting cloaks with a pattern of lozenges. This was a potential connection with the megalithic inscriptions which contain the lozenge as a key part of their design.”35 According to Joan Allgrove-McDowell:36 The earliest example [of a decorated Pharaonic garment] is the tiny ivory statuette of an unknown First-Dynasty king (c. 2920-2770 BC) from Abydos and now in the British Museum, wearing a short cloak, the garment associated with the Sed-festival, or King’s Jubilee and, in this case, lozenge-patterned.

33 “Mary Lecron Foster has presented a telling body of technical linguistic evidence that underscores a possible relationship between the ancient Egyptian and the Mixe-Zoque languages of southern Mexico, which include the Mayan tongues and are thought to have derived from the still-unknown Olmec language. Quechua, an indigenous

language spoken to this day by the Indians of the Andes, is similar to the Mixe-Zoque languages and, according to Foster, contains additional words with Semitic roots, most likely from Arabic.” Robert M. Schoch, Voyages of the Pyramid Builders, p. 117.

34 Nahuatl has a series of postpositions. Among them are -tla(n), -pa(n), -ca(n), and -c(o), all ofwhich mean something like 'in', or 'at the place of'. Per http://www.sil.org/mexico/nahuatl/10i-NahuatlQuestions.htm

Ivory statuette of an Egyptian king wearing a Jubilee robe, from the Temple of Osiris, Abydos, Egypt, Early Dynastic period (about 3000 BC). “The robe, decorated with a fine pattern of diamond shapes enclosed in double lines, is of a distinctive type worn by kings when celebrating the Sed or Jubilee Festival. This figurine may be evidence that this festival was celebrated right at the beginning of the historical period in Egypt.” -- E. H. Russamann, Masterworks of Eternal Egypt, University of California Press, 2001.37

In his book, Stars, Stones and Scholars—the Decipherment of the Megaliths, Andis Kaulins demonstrated that the same lozenge pattern on the Jubilee robe of the Egyptian pharaoh could be found on the breastplate of the High Druid at Stonehenge.38

Atlantis Was a Global, Maritime Empire Based in Ireland

According to Conor MacDari in his book, Irish Wisdom Preserved in the Bible and the Pyramids:40

There is no mistaking the monuments left by the Irish who were once the rulers and masters of the whole earth. Their rule embraced all countries - it was worldwide.  Ireland was the first mistress of the seas; it was the first and only worldwide empire which has ever been known. For it was spiritual. It was greater in extent than Persian, Greek, Roman, or Mogul ever attained to. The remains of their works, wherever they are found, bear an unmistakable similarity in shape and character. They are huge, immense, and conceived and carried out on a plan so extensive that it awes the mind of the man of today. These remains extend from Ireland along the Atlantic coast of Europe to Africa, along the Mediterranean Sea to Egypt, India, China, Java, Tahiti, and the Caroline Islands in the South Pacific Ocean. On the American Continent we find the round tower near Newport, R. I., which bespeaks its Irish origin, and the great pyramidal mounds of the Ohio and Mississippi valleys; also the ruined temples of Yucatan and Mexico, and similar remains in South America are all evidences of their handiwork. All owe their origin to the same source, and they establish beyond any doubt that the Irish were the first real discoverers of America and that they established civilization on this western continent. It was tradition founded on that fact which gave hope and encouragement to later adventurers.

The Oldest Megalithic Architecture in the World is Located on or near the

British Islands

According to Anne Macaulay, the oldest megalithic architecture in the world is located on or near the British Islands:41 Before starting, something needs to be said about the historical background into which this research falls. The trail leads back into Britain at a very early period when the megalithic structures were being built (Stonehenge, etc.). With the new calibration of carbon dating, the age of these megalithic sites is now seen to be far older that had previously been thought. (See Chronological table below.) The consequence of this new dating is that it is now realized that the Western European megalithic culture could not have been derived from Eastern sources, as it predates anything comparable in the East by millennia; e.g., the first megalithic stone structures go back to 4700 B.C. and the stone setting at Callanish in the Hebrides to 3700 B.C.; the first use of stone in Egypt, at the time of Zoser, is after 2700 B.C. Incidentally, Imhotep, Zoser's architect, is thought by some to be an outsider who came from the West.

This new historical sequence derived from carbon dating has invalidated the old well-known theory of the diffusion of culture from the East to the West. This has led to a renewed interest in British archeology, and many excavations are now being carried out in order to get material for dating. The results are gradually putting the dates further and further back, for example the unexpectedly early date recently procured for Callanish, 3700 B.C. The period of most activity, when well over a thousand rings were erected, was from c. 3200 to 1500 B.C., after which the use of large stones (megaliths) ceased; by c. 1400 B.C. Stonehenge was abandoned for some unknown reason. At much the same time some other megalithic sites were also abandoned, but at others there was continued occupation with developing pottery stiles, metal technology, etc., right on into the Iron Age and the coming of the Romans. This continuity is very important. All the traceable artifacts show an unbroken line of development through the mesolithic period into historical times; there were intrusions, e.g., the beaker peoples, but these are now seen as the spread of new cultural ideas rather than wholesale invasions as thought before.

Understanding the Blueprint for 3D Creation, learning to manipulate energy and shifting into 5d earth.   If you don’t like your world then change it, you have the power, YOUR world and THE world are different things, you can change your future, the power of the individual & group mind.  Releasing yourself from the wheel of incarnation and karma, forgiveness sets you free to move with the shifting energies into higher frequencies.  The Soul is Sexless, neither male nor female, this is the balance that must be achieved and understood for the Third Eye, your personal Star Gate to open to the higher dimensions.  Soul evolution requires that you release your karma, but first you must understand how to do this, you have incarnated many times as both male and female, to understand balance.  This point of balance is the zero point, zep tepi, the nexus point where all timelines converge and you can choose your future.  Connecting to the Higher Self where all the records are stored, all the in-formation required to move faster than the speed of light, beyond the physical and into the light body that you really are. 

 Enter the Star Gate.

                       

       

                                                                            

The Egyptian hieroglyph for the Star Sirius containing a mound (e.g. Newgrange Eire), a pyramid (e.g. Great Pyramid Egypt) and a five pointed star which, among many things, represents a human being.

The Egyptian civilization was a legacy handed down by a highly evolved consciousness, the replanting of Atlantis Eire, the Followers of Horus, brought the Seeds of Wisdom to Egypt and encoded it in their Sacred Structures.  The Flower of Life and Light was placed beneath the Mound of Creation at the center of the Earth upon which the star gate known as the Great Pyramid, Noah’s Ark, was placed.  On 30^th September 2012 the star gate higher dimensional portals for 5D Earth which exist between the Shee Mound of Tara Ireland & the Great Pyramid of Egypt was re-anchored and re-opened.  An Octahedron of sacred light was raised, removing all negative energy codes, seals and blocks from the sacred land of the Hill of Tara, the seat of the ancient Druid Maji, the teachers and healers of the ancient world.  The Words of Power from the Book of Coming Forth by Light were pronounced at Tara for the first time in thousands of years.  

Octahedron

As the dark ages were forced upon us and the knowledge of the unity of these two great lands was lost, the star gate information portals were shut down using energy codes and blocks.  The once great consciousness became divided against itself and separated to the degree that it lost the knowledge of its own divinity and, as a result, physical mortal, finite human consciousness was born.   Alone, lost, fearful, separated, divided, controlled and manipulated, they lived and died, a shadow of their former self.  Sleep walking while the storm raged all around, helpless to overcome the darkness and the misuse of power which had led to their downfall.  Their language confused, their people separated and scattered in opposite directions until it all became just Babel.

 

30th September 2012 The Unification of the Two Lands, opening the Star Gate portals between Egypt and Ireland-Eire to anchor the new consciousness of 5D Earth.  The work continues.          

On 30th September 2012 a group of re-membered souls gathered for the Unification of the Two lands Ireland-Eire & Egypt.  The star gate portal was once again opened connecting the Great Central Sun with the center of our galaxy and with our earth, awakening the ancient land of Eire and all her beautiful souls, uniting Spirit and Matter.  A quantum leap takes place as we step through the gateway moving us once again into Universal & Galactic conscious awareness, coming full circle.   We ascend to descend and descend to ascend, alchemy, the sacred science of enlightenment and immortality is what happens in between these two phases.   Our golden octahedron spins faster than the speed of light, weaving a crystalline consciousness network, allowing the in-formation to flow from above and below, sub-conscious to conscious.  The memory of Atlantis Ireland-Eire has been re-activated and a unity consciousness is being born, the in-formation will come flooding back, just as it was washed away in the flood so shall it return in a flood of super consciousness.  Wake up now & re-member who you are, you are the Masters of Wisdom, the Record Keepers.  Time as we know it is coming to an end, seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, keeps us moving in circles.   Infinite, eternal, ageless, timeless, forever, without beginning or end, moves us into ever increasing and expanding cycles and both states exist in the mind and heart.

Creator consciousness created a physical experience through the use of the language of light, a language of sacred and divine proportions, geometry, number and ratios.  Using the word, the sound, created a fractal, holographic Universe, the atom and a solar system,  know the smallest part and you know the entire creation as above so below, as within so without, the Universe within.  The 26,000 year long cycle of precession is that in which the soul experiences the physical 3rd dimension on Earth, throughout this time the soul must remember its Divine Blueprint, to ascend above its creation, to unite physical and spiritual, heart and mind, conscious and sub -conscious.  Our sub-conscious is our creator conscious, the part of us that still knows it’s the Creator, it holds all the records and the memories of everything that has ever happened, it is the Akashic Records, it is Tir naNog and the Halls of Amenti.

The symbol of the Masters of Wisdom, the Blueprint for Creation, is the Flower of Life, found in one of the most ancient sites in Egypt, the Osirion Temple in Abydos and somehow “placed” on solid granite columns, its existence and the existence of the temple itself is living witness to the highly advanced knowledge of our ancient ancestors.  Encoded in the Flower of Life Symbol is the Seed of Life, the Egg of Life, the Fruit of Life, the Tree of Life and the Key of Life, containing all the sacred knowledge used to construct the mega structures of the ancient world, the sacred proportions held in the highest secrecy by the greatest minds.  Everything in the physical manifest Universe evolves and grows in accordance with these sacred proportions.  This symbol is the Key to the star gate portal, descended from the stars and encoded in the Great Pyramid of Giza Egypt, it is the Book of Coming Forth by Light, the map to the way Home.
