On Perspective and Prerogatives\u2026<\/h1>\n

by<\/strong>\u00a0Doug \u201cUncola\u201d Lynn:<\/strong><\/p>\n

In 1978, a 22-year-old man began teaching earth science at a school in Rochester, New York.\u00a0 At that time, he told his ninth-grade students about a solar eclipse that would occur on April 8, 2024 and he invited his students to attend an \u201ceclipse party\u201d that he would be hosting 46 years in the future.<\/p>\n

On the Monday of the eclipse, or four days ago as of this writing, approximately 100 former students gathered at the home of their now 68-year-old former teacher.\u00a0 Here is\u00a0a link to the news article<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Four days prior to the eclipse (on 4\/4\/2024),\u00a0four planets in our solar system aligned<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0on the same side of the sun as earth: Venus, Mars, Saturn and Neptune.\u00a0 The next day a\u00a04.8-magnitude earthquake<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0was felt in New Jersey, New York City, Boston, and Philadelphia.<\/p>\n

In 2024, a total of four planetary alignments are occurring with the following celestial events\u00a0still to happen<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\u2013 On April 20, there will be a planetary gathering of five planets: Venus, Mercury, Neptune, Mars and Saturn.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2013 On June 7, there will be a planetary alignment of six planets: Mercury, Jupiter, Uranus, Mars, Neptune and Saturn.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u2013 On Aug. 28, there will be a planetary gathering of six planets: Mercury, Mars, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune and Saturn.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These cosmic occurrences are a reminder of how the universe operates like a clock, with predictable accuracy, and beyond the control of any human \u2013 especially beyond the self-appointed prerogative of the technocratic transhumanists now facilitating hell on earth.<\/p>\n

This is the other eclipse now visible over Western Civilization: A societal eclipse. It, too, unwinds according to math. And, like the universe, the national alignments and societal shadows were set into motion a long time ago.<\/p>\n

Therefore, let us maintain the proper perspective as another tyrannical tempest now rages in history.<\/p>\n

The last three American\u00a0Fourth Turnings<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0delivered the Revolutionary War, Civil War, and World War II, respectively. Now, eight decades later, we are engulfed by what authors William Strauss and Neil Howe have described as \u201cthe core elements of these[Fourth Turning] scenarios\u201d:\u00a0\u00a0Debt<\/em>,\u00a0civic decay<\/em>, and\u00a0global disorde<\/em>r.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Consider that each of the past Fourth Turnings were more cataclysmic than the last; and the rising civilizational vortexes were proportionally exacerbated according to advancements in technology.\u00a0\u00a0 All civilizational cycles unwind like clockwork and manifest as a result of math.\u00a0 Cause and effect. \u00a0The larger the causes, the greater the effects. The largest debt bubble in the history of the world is about to burst.<\/p>\n

As if by entropy, the American social contract has been degraded through the decades. This occurred with certain finality like a shadow\u2019s\u00a0path of totality<\/em>\u00a0from an eclipse over America\u2019s institutions.<\/p>\n

False narratives have ruled the world via psychological warfare and manufactured consent; and most U.S. citizens have been demoralized past the point of no return. Not enough minds can change in time. Thus, binaries of shadow and light will run their inevitable course in this current cycle.<\/p>\n

Esoteric cult magic spins like software in modernity: Binaries, polarities, and dialectics. All programmed to divide and dissolve, to conquer and coagulate; to alchemize\u00a0order<\/em>\u00a0from\u00a0chaos<\/em>; while an ersatz patina coats the globe which blurs reality. We imbibe what\u2019s fake, like pixie dust, or processed food, and it tastes like chewed tinfoil soaked in saccharine.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, the world groans. The earth shakes.<\/p>\n

But flowers still blossom and tree buds bloom.\u00a0 Just yesterday, a rainbow appeared right outside my window. A rainbow: translucent, transient, transcendent.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Later that evening, I opened the same window and my upward glance caught the sliver of an ivory moon formed into a winsome, slanted smile floating amid stars sparkling. The spring breeze was crisp and cool and it carried an earthy hint of verdant ground. The moment felt both ancient and familiar.<\/p>\n

Biblical books like Psalms and Ecclesiastes paint human life as \u201cbut a breath\u201d, or \u201ca passing mist\u201d, and our days are described as fading like flowers and grass. \u00a0For time grinds even brick, and stone, and marble to dust.<\/p>\n

The Cult dreams under moons and planets and stars aligned above; and their revolution, their technology, and their rebellion against reality are mere steps on the stairway to nowhere. As in the example of the tower of Babylon from centuries ago, all of their artifices will crumble in time.<\/p>\n

Until then, however, people will believe and choose until their only choices are \u201cyes\u201d or \u201cno\u201d.<\/p>\n
