Magical Roswell

Seemingly, the story of the apparent ufo crash at Roswell has been beaten to death. Most of us imagine that we have a fairly clear understanding of it, an understanding that varies from one person to the next. Either a spacecraft from another world, some sort of secret government craft, or a Project Mogul balloon crashed. There may have been a second and even a third crash site, and alien bodies may have been retrieved. End of story. Not quite. As if the situation wasn't confused enough already, a number of writers have recently called our attention to a whole other side to Roswell, a seemingly magical side, evidence that occult forces were at work, and that the whole event was, in some sense, fated.

But before we get into that let us dispense with the idea that it was merely a balloon crash. Army personnel at the time were quite familiar with weather balloons, and the alleged Project Mogul balloon would actually be a train of several balloons, connected by a long rope, or cord. Remember that a balloon is a balloon is a balloon, whatever its purpose, and that neoprene is synthetic rubber and foil (or paper backed foil) is foil. These were all common materials. Being a former USAF intelligence officer myself, I can assure you that if I had told my commander that a balloon was a ufo, I would have been arrested and confined, my career ended. Yet Jesse Marcel was promoted some time after Roswell, and his commander, Colonel Blanchard, was promoted again and again, all the way to the maximum peacetime rank of four stars, and he was the one who authorized the news release stating that it was a "flying disc." Remember, Marcel was the intelligence officer and Blanchard the commander of the nation's and the world's only nuclear bomb wing. One would like to believe that they would have been rather carefully chosen and held to a pretty high standard. And the balloons in a Mogul train were held together by a cord. Where was it? No one reported any kind of rope at the crash site. There is a Sherlock Holmes story where the clue is a dog that didn't bark (because it knew the perpetrator). The dog that didn't bark at Roswell was the writing that wasn't. There was some kind of "hieroglyphics," but nothing in English, no "Property of the US Government," no "If Found, Report to Local Law Enforcement," nothing. And, to top it all off, at least one Mogul balloon (not at Roswell) was found by untrained civilians, who immediately recognized it as a cluster of balloons. Enough said. Whatever came down between Roswell and Corona, it was not any kind of balloon.

What are the odds that the pioneer of American rocketry and a future astronaut should both happen to live in the same tiny town at the same time? What are the odds that, while both of them were living there, a ufo should happen to crash nearby? Rather slim, I should say. Yet Robert Goddard, who built the world's first liquid fuel rocket and went on to develop fuel pumps and gyroscopic stabilizers, did many of his early experiments just outside Roswell, and was still living there at the time of the crash, while the US government conducted large scale rocket tests west of Roswell, at White Sands. Also living in Roswell on that very fateful day was a young boy named Edgar Mitchell, who one day, as an astronaut, would fly to the Moon on a rocket. This is way out of bounds for coincidence, and this is just the beginning.

British author David Icke pointed out that strange and terrible things seem to happen on certain dates and certain lines of latitude, and reminded us that, even if we think sacred geometry and numerology are nonsense, we must at least understand that the global elites take all of this very seriously. And, of course, if the very nature of reality is different from what most of us are programmed to believe, these may be very serious topics indeed.We know that many of the powerful people in the world belong to mysterious secret societies like the Masons, and that a thirty third degree Mason is considered to be one of the cognoscenti. Why thirty third? Mystics believe that illumination, a higher state of consciousness, is achieved when the primal chi or kundalini energy ascends the spine to the crown chakra. The human spine has 33 vertebrae. Thirty three is three times 11, and the sunspot cycle, for unkown reasons, is just over 11 years. Curiouser and curiouser. The Roswell/Corona crash site is within a degree of the thirty third parallel. So is Charleston, South Carolina, long the North American branch of Scottish Rite Freemasonry. So is Dallas, where they shot JFK on November 22, or 11/22, which adds up to 33. So is the Trinity Site, not too far west of Roswell, where the first nuclear bomb was tested.

And then there is the date, July Fourth. A rocket pioneer and a future astronaut were both living in the same small town near the thirty third parallel when a ufo crashed nearby on our nation's birthday. Coincidence. Sure. Many of our Founding Fathers were Masons, and they began signing the Declaration of Independence on that day. The seventh month and fourth day add up to 11, one third of 33 and the number of years in the sunspot cycle. The ratio of seven to eleven is the ratio of the height to any of the base sides of the Great Pyramid at Giza. One of the alleged planes on 9/11 (there's that number again) was Flight 11, and another was Flight 77 (seven times eleven).
And then there is the year, 1947. This was the year that our thirty third President, Harry Truman (a thirty third degree Mason) signed the National Defense Act, creating a peacetime draft and a "Defense Department" that defends every nation on Earth except this one. This was also the year that, within a few days of Roswell, pilot Kenneth Arnold saw nine (a magic number) crescent-shaped flying objects. And then there was the alleged ufo sighting at Maury Island in the state of Washington, preceded and followed by mysterious plane crashes and other odd events.

Author Richard Hoagland has pointed out that if a regular tetrahedron, a kind of pyramid bounded by four equilateral triangles, is just the right size to be incribed in a sphere like the Earth with one vertex at the South Pole, the other three vertices will be 120 degrees apart from one another and 19.47 degrees (to two decimal paces; like pi, this is an irrational number) north of the equator. For various complex reasons he considers this latitude to be significant, and there is our number, 19.47 and the year 1947.

Like David Icke said, at the very least we need to understand that our world's hidden movers and shakers take all of this very seriously. So where does that leave us? Was the crash fated to happen? Was it an incredibly elaborate disinformation drama or ritual act staged by our own government? Or did our military shoot down an interplanetary spacecraft, and depend on ritual magic to help them do it? We may never know, but perhaps it is time for a lot of us to begin questioning the accepted (atheist/materialist/logical positivist) view of reality. Even if we don't have the answers it is high time we learned some new questions.

Roswell Incident: 1947 Explanation of the bodies found: Crash test dummies. Crash test dummies weren't invented till 1949.

An interesting and fun article, with a lot of thought by many people with different interests and back rounds. Still to the average Joe Blow it boils down to " how dose this effect me". The true story may have many explanations, but dose it effect my every day life. Not really. But they say if you don't use your brain it becomes weak and flawed. So it's good exercise for the neurons.

Roswell Incident: 1947 Explanation of the bodies found: Crash test dummies. Crash test dummies weren't invented till 1949. crash test dummies weren't dropped until the early 50's. and Marcell was the intelligence officer for the base . Of course he knew all about mogul. this wasn't mogul .

Roswell Incident: 1947 Explanation of the bodies found: Crash test dummies. Crash test dummies weren't invented till 1949. You should read the reports a little more closely. The 1997 report states (copied and pasted here from pages 17 and 27) l Air Force activities which occurred over a period of many years have been consolidated and are now represented to have occurred in two or three days in July 1947. b. The reports of bodies were not associated with Project MOGUL. The MOGUL balloon train did not, was not designed to, nor could it carry passengers. Neither did it carry hazardous materials t... [More]

Haha, of all the deions I could think of to label the Roswell Incident, somehow, 'magical' wouldn't be one of them.
