Out of This World on November 7th?

Events have happened on November 7ths in the past and incidents will occur on November 7, 2014. Watch out. What those are remain to be seen. We may wish to look to the skies for their origins. Or closer to home. Let me explain.

As George Santayana (1863-1952) is often quoted to have said: "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

I should add, those who ignore the signs and symbols from the past may be surprised when current experiences are mirrors of earlier times.

Something significant is in the wings for Friday, November 7, 2014. Is there a pattern of events that have taken place in the past? Let's have a look.

Is there any similarity to historic incidents that have been registered on November 7ths?

How about topics defined as...

Battles/Assassinations/Deaths/Bombings/Violence

1811 - Tecumseh's War: The Battle of Tippecanoe was fought near present-day Battle Ground, Indiana, United States. The Shawnee Indians and Chief Tecumseh were defeated by William Henry Harrison.
1837 - In Alton, Illinois, abolitionist printer Elijah P. Lovejoy is shot dead by a mob while attempting to protect his printing shop from being destroyed a third time.
1893 - In Barcelona, Spain, 23 people including 9 women, were killed at Liceo Opera House by a bomb thrown by anarchist Salvador Franch.
1908 - Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid are reportedly killed in San Vicente, Bolivia.
1940 - The middle section of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge in Washington state collapsed during a windstorm. The suspension bridge had opened to traffic on July 1, 1940.
1983 - A bomb exploded inside the United States Capitol. No one is injured, but an estimated $250,000 in damage is caused. A caller said the bomb was an action against US aggression in Grenada and Lebanon.
1996 - In Nigeria Flight 086, a Boeing 727 belonging to the Aviation Development Corp., crashed near Epe east of Lagos and 141 [142] people died.
2007 - Jokela school shooting occurred in Tuusula, Finland, resulting in the death of nine people.
2012 - In California, Lawrence Jones, 42, a discharged parolee, shot four coworkers before shooting himself at Valley Protein, a poultry processing plant.
2012 - In China, four self-immolations took place. Three Tibetan teenage monks, aged 15-16, set themselves on fire outside a police office in southwest Sichuan province. At least one died. A 23-year-old Tibetan nomadic woman, Tamdin Tso, died after self-immolating in western Qinghai province.

Is there anything there that we might observe repeated?

Spying a little deeper, one event appears to have created ripples through time related to what first happened back in 1917. Those would be the temporal outcomes from...

The October or Russian or Bolshevik Revolution

1917 - The Gregorian calendar date is of the October Revolution, which gets its name from the Julian calendar date of 25 October. On this date in 1917, the Bolsheviks storm the Winter Palace.
1919 - The first Palmer Raid is conducted on the second anniversary of the Russian Revolution. Over 10,000 suspected communists and anarchists are arrested in 23 different United States cities.
1931 - The Chinese Soviet Republic was proclaimed on the anniversary of the October Revolution, by Mao Tse Tung.
1941 - Russians paraded across Red Square commemorating the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and afterward went directly to the front to defend Moscow from the approaching Nazi forces.
1991 - Pro- and anti-Communists rallies took place in Moscow on the 74th anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution.
1992 - Alexander Dubcek, 70, former Czechoslovak leader (1968-1969), died in a car crash. His 1968 failed attempt to loosen the Communist grip became known as the Prague Spring.
1992 - Richard Yates, 66, US author of Revolutionary Road (1961), died in Birmingham, Alabama.
2008 - Mieczyslaw Rakowski, 81, Poland's last communist-era party chairman and prime minister, died. Rakowski, a historian and journalist, was chairman of the communist Polish United Workers' Party from July 1989 until the party was dissolved at its January 1990 Congress during the country's bloodless transition to democracy.

Can we expect something from the new Russia? Or accounts related to the old October Revolution? There does seem to be a self-generating human factor here that keeps coming to the surface for Russians, even beyond the Communist era. The anniversary syndrome with deaths also seems to be strong with this date and a "revolutionary" background. This is worth watching.

What I found, more importantly, however, was a common denominator in a specific series of activities, actions, and announcements. My research revealed, in an overwhelming fashion, a thread that kept surfacing. That theme was one linked to space, to astronomy, to rocketry.

Here is an overview of past November 7ths'...

Astroevents

1492 - The Ensisheim meteorite, the oldest meteorite with a known date of impact, struck the earth around noon in a wheat field outside the village of Ensisheim, Alsace, France. Emperor Maximilian visited Ensisheim 15 days after the fall and ordered that the Ensisheim meteorite be preserved in the local church.

1918 - Robert Goddard demonstrated tube-launched solid propellant rockets.

1932 - Buck Rogers in the 25th Century was broadcast for the first time on CBS Radio.

1936: Wernher von Braun's team tested the first clustered liquid-fueled rocket.
1966 - Lunar Orbiter 2 launched by US.
1967 - Surveyor 6 launched for soft landing on Moon.
1984 - The Space Shuttle Discovery STS-51-A launch was scrubbed at T-minus 20 minutes due to high shear winds in the upper atmosphere. Discovery launched successfully the next day.
1996 - NASA's Mars Global Surveyor blasted off from Cape Canaveral, Florida, on a mission to map the surface of the Red Planet. It went into orbit around Mars in 2001.
1998 - The Space Shuttle Discovery (STS-95) landed in Cape Canaveral, Florida. After 9 days in space, John Glenn, 77, returned to Earth aboard the Discovery, visibly weak but elated after the mission. On February 20, 1962, Glenn flew the Friendship 7 mission and became the first American to orbit the Earth. Glenn is the last surviving member of the Mercury 7. A Freemason, Glenn is a member of Concord Lodge # 688 New Concord, Ohio, and DeMolay International, the Masonic youth organization. Lots of 7, as you see.
2000 - The U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration discovered one of the country's largest LSD labs inside a converted military missile silo in Wamego (means "clear of springs"), Kansas.
2007 - The Space Shuttle Discovery returned to the Kennedy Space Center after a 15-day mission building and repairing the International Space Station.

All of these space-related incidents clustered, remarkably, on November 7ths.

What do we know is going to take place on November 7, 2014? In a word, Interstellar. The film, directed by Christopher Nolan, is set to go into wide release in the USA on November 7, 2014. A perfect date for such an event, it seems.

Anne Hathaway is in The Dark Knight Rises and Interstellar.

What was the last big event that created a massive emotional quake from a Christopher Nolan-directed film? That would be the Aurora shooting at the opening of The Dark Knight Rises on July 20, 2012. Will Interstellar's opening be linked to a more hopeful, celestial incident??

More on Interstellar, its ties to 2001, and more, in the coming week.

HALLOWEEN UPDATE:

Virgin Galactic's SpaceShipTwo experienced "an in-flight anomaly" during a test flight on October 31, 2014, the company said on Twitter. Details about the anomaly weren't immediately released.

On its website, Virgin Galactic describes SpaceShipTwo as having a cabin similar in size to an executive jet and capable of carrying two pilots and six passengers.

"The spaceship can be thought of as an air launched glider with a rocket motor and a couple of extra systems for spaceflight," the website says.

One of the two pilots was found dead, and the other one is critically injured.

Are We In Oz? Another Beheading and A King Air Crash

In "The Perfect Synch Storm," I shared a comment maker's notion that what we are seeing is, in some way, linked to the twilight language of James Shelby Downard’s "Killing of the King" ritual. The many royal monikers showing up in the recent news items seem to be beyond coincidence.

That was followed last night, by Patricia Ward, a professor of English, being beheaded by her son Derek. An eyewitness is quoted.

Witness Jack Imperial, 41, of Queens, was taking a taxi to a meeting when he came across the grisly scene, he told the New York Daily News.
“The body’s feet were at the curb, the shoulders were at the middle of the street. The head was across the street,” Imperial told the newspaper. “I’ve seen some gruesome stuff in my years of living ... but nothing like this. I didn’t expect to see something like this, especially not out here.” Source

Then this morning a King Air crashes in Kansas. 

A small airplane struck a FlightSafety International building near Wichita's Mid-Continent Airport on the morning of October 30, 2014, FlightSafety spokesman Steve Phillips said.

People were found dead inside the building, four are reported dead. At one point, over 10 people were said to be trapped in the building, with a few seriously injured, after the plane, a Hawker Beechcraft King Air, crashed into that building near the airport located in southern Kansas.

The logo of the Hawker Beechcraft King Air appears to repeat the imagery in the Cross of the Hospitallers.

An interesting and romantic survivor of Outremer (a general name given to the Crusader states established after the First Crusade) "was, and is, the Sovereign Order of the Knights of the Hospital of St. John of Jerusalem, of Rhodes, and of Malta, the Hospitallers, who held Rhodes from 1309 to 1523 and Malta from 1530 to 1798. Starting with a hospital in Jerusalem, before the Crusades even started, the Order was recognized by the Pope in 1113 and soon acquired a military branch, staffing some of the most famous castles of Outremer, like the Krak des Chevaliers in Syria." Source.

The FAA said the twin-engine plane lost an engine on takeoff and crashed into the two-story building. The roof on the building's eastern side has collapsed.

Video from KSNW-TV showed thick smoke rising from the building at 10:20 a.m. (11:20 a.m. ET).

Wichita, Kansas, with a 2010 population of 382,368, is the largest city in Kansas. Because of it's unique position on the plains and in the center of the country, the city has been the location of the beginnings of many businesses. Coleman, Mentholatum, Pizza Hut, Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers, White Castle, Taco Tico, and Koch Industries were all been founded in Wichita.

The city is known as "The Air Capital of the World" because of the establishment of the following aircraft corporations in Wichita in the late 1920s and early 1930s: Stearman, Cessna, Mooney, and Beechcraft. Learjet, and Spirit AeroSystems continue to operate design and manufacturing facilities in Wichita today, and the city remains a major center of the U.S. aircraft industry.

The city has interesting links to a broader history, such as the fact that one of the signatories on the town charter was a lone woman, the town laundry operator, Catherine "The Widow" McCarty, whose elder teenage son, after leaving Wichita, would become the infamous gunman, Billy the Kid.

Billy the Kid is a 1930 American film produced and directed in widescreen by King Vidor.

Kansas? But are we, instead, in Oz? 

In L. Frank Baum's book The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the author describes Kansas as being "in shades of gray." 

But what is Oz, red, right now?

Let's we forget, in the book, the Tinman beheads wild cats.

Scarecrow: “I cannot understand why you should wish to leave this beautiful country and go back to the dry, gray place you call Kansas.”
Dorothy: “That is because you have no brains … No matter how dreary and gray our homes are, we people of flesh and blood would rather live there than in any other country, be it ever so beautiful. There is no place like home.” ~ from L. Frank Baum's book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (1900)

Dorothy: Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas any more. ~ from the film, The Wizard of Oz (1939).

The Perfect Synch Storm

The events of October 2014 have been mind-boggling in terms of twilight language, lexilinks, synchromystic overlapping thoughts, and copycat phenomena. Many interpretations and observations have been made across the blogosphere this month, too many for me to link to, as well as in the social media and backchannel emails. The mainstream news has even jumped in, now and then. But I do need to pause, to take a few minutes to take stock of the fact that we are in the midst of this, and get ready for November 7th. More on that soon, but let's take a moment.

This horrible month seems to have started on Saturday, September 27, 2014, when five bodies in the Strack family were discovered to have died mysteriously in their duplex on the road leading to Springville High School in Springville, Utah. That high school's mascot is the Red Devil - based on the concrete company that was named after the use of the word "devil" throughout the area, not just because of the devil on the cement bag, as some would have you believe.

The wormholes are temporal and the rabbit holes are deep. The twilight language played games with many clues during the last 30 days.

One day was so bad, October 24th, that it was termed by one blogger, "Black Friday."

Even evil/killer clowns became part of the mix: see here and here.

How have people been internally integrating all of this?

Let me share some thoughts sent to me by one individual who wishes to remain anonymous. It certainly speaks to the attempt by folks to try to make some sense of all that is occurring:

I wanted to suggest an additional interpretation among the welter of logical interpretations, as to these events. Possibly this is another form of the Killing of the King ritual. The Native America lad who shot up his friends and family at the Tomahawk school had been recently elected "Prince." And the MK-Ultra-style attack on the police by hatchet-man (once again a fellow connected to the US military), took place in Queens. It's all standard Kabbalist ritual, as I see it. So much of these repeated event-makings stink of straight astrotheology/kabala/sorcerous numerology. As the "cosmic doorways" community is aptly detailing. Much easier making sense of all of it when this is assumed as the source. Amusing to me that the "American Slave" assaulting the "Big House" is highlighted by the lad's strangely but childishly informed and expressed postings about the Rothschild dynasty. Also amusing that days later some bloke who "wasn't on his meds" "drives/rams into" the Ten Commandments in OKC, a city with its own unique Satanic flair. And recently the ACLU attacked the idea of this monument, essentially siding with the Church of Satan. They both had the same response to the assault on the monument. Of course, the smashing of the tablets has a clear Biblical resonance, to be understood by Biblical types more than I, probably. The reportage makes an effort to note that the 2nd commandment was the one which suffered the break..meanwhile, it is the 2nd Amendment which is rife in the news. What with all these unstable shooters running about in the land...And as you've prolly noticed, Zale was 32, suggesting a possible succession-link to the lad's chosen number 33...Yep: heady times, Mr. Coleman.

Regarding the number 237, after I noticed that the Logan Airport Ebola scare was linked to Flight 237, other items began turning up, related to 237. See here, here, here, and here.

Then AWG/RDR said, "Within hours of reading this, I went to the tag agency to get a new license plate for my car. Oklahoma tags have three numbers followed by three letters. The numbers? 237, of course!" And he wrote about it here.

Native Americans. See here. Native Americans and 237. See here.

Insights have been shared on the Canadian War Memorial attack, here and here, for example.

Even some events I did not discuss need to be mentioned, like the White House astrologer dying.

I wrote about "car rammings," and soon RDR observed that the Ten Commandments were run down in Oklahoma City.

Temple Mount sychs and car rammings predict the potential for other events. Like the one that happened today:

But wait, Halloween is Friday! And we aren't through with pitchforks/tridents yet.

Coming soon...Why November 7th is worth watching...

Evil Clowns Reach France

The Phantom Clowns, the Evil Clowns, the Killer Clowns have had a banner year. They've been seen - and often photographed - in the USA, in the UK, and now France.

French police say "any person, aggressive clowns or hunters of

clowns, discovered in possession of a weapon ... will be arrested".

Credit: French National Police Facebook Page. 

A 14-year-old dressed as a clown has been arrested near Paris for attempting to attack a woman, in the latest incident of fake, evil clowns terrorising passers-by in France.
Complaints have poured in recently over "armed clowns" wreaking havoc in
various parts of the country.
Police have detained several people dressed as the pranksters - some
carrying pistols, knives and baseball bats.
The bizarre phenomenon has even prompted anti-clown vigilantism, forcing
police to try to quell the hysteria by saying there have only been a few
sightings of the terrifying clowns.
On Monday, a woman who had just got out of her car in Chelles, an eastern
suburb 18 kilometres from central Paris, called the police, saying two
clowns - one of whom was armed with a fake axe - had attacked her, a
source said.
They escaped when a passer-by armed with a baseball bat tried to stop them.
One of the pranksters was later detained when police spotted him, white
make-up still covering his face.
In a separate incident just half-an-hour afterwards, a dozen people
wearing the smiling, white masks associated with the Anonymous hacktivist
collective attacked three youths and stole their mobile phones at a
station in Melun, a south-eastern suburb of Paris.
The "evil clown" trend previously seen in the United States and Britain
only began in the north of France in early October.
In the town of Bethune, a 19-year-old received a six-month suspended jail
term last week for threatening passers-by while dressed as a clown.
The "clowns" have been "mostly spotted outside schools, but also on public
roads, in bushes, and in a square.
Their targets are often young children or teenagers, but also adults," a
police source in northern France said. It then spread to the south of
France.
'Clown hunters' also on police radarFrench police released information
warning against armed anti-clown vigilantes taking to the streets.
"The National Police have received many reports of clowns frightening
passers-by, but many are fanciful and the proportion of children," the
police service said on its Facebook page.
"Symptomatic of the impact of the internet, this phenomenon can generate
harmful individual derivatives and disturbances to public order.
"On social networks, groups calling for collective mobilisations against
clowns have appeared.
"Any person, aggressive clowns or hunters of clowns, discovered in
possession of a weapon on the highway will be arrested."
Police on Saturday night arrested 14 teenagers dressed as clowns and
carrying weapons in the Mediterranean port town of Agde.
In the nearby city of Montpellier, a man disguised as a clown was arrested
after beating a pedestrian with an iron bar.
Theories abound as to the origin of the not-so-funny trend of violence in
a country where Halloween has yet to take hold.
The suggestions include a challenge launched on social networks, a popular
video on YouTube showing a terrifying clown pranking people or even a
recent episode of the popular TV series American Horror Story featuring
Twisty the killer clown. Source.

More 237: Scorpion and The Shining

The new CBS series, Scorpion is loosely based on the true story of a group of geniuses, we are told. It premiered on September 22, 2014. The basis of the series is the life of genius and computer expert Walter O'Brien.

Walter O'Brien was born February 24, 1975 in Ireland, was bullied as a youth, and founded his Scorpion Computer Services, using a nickname from his youth. O'Brien was the "Real-Life ‘Scorpion’ Helped ID Boston Marathon Bombing Suspects," according to a report by WBZ-TV, Boston.

How much is real, legend, or myth, remains to be seen. Are new articles found on the Internet plants?

Intriguingly, the opening preface to Scorpion is a scene of a young O'Brien being arrested for hacking - wearing a USA rocket blue sweater. What is fake and what is fact? Sound familiar? Sort of like the Apollo moon landings? LOL.

Scorpion's young O'Brien (played by Daniel Zolghadri) is wearing a sweater that mirrors, in a fashion, the Apollo 11 USA sweater being worn by Danny in The Shining.

Daniel has its origins from the Hebrew name דָּנִיֵּאל (Daniyyel) and means "God is my judge."

In Room 237 (2012, directed by Rodney Ascher, produced by Tim Kirk), much is made by some theorists that Stanley Kubrick is giving a nod to the faking of the lunar landings with this sweater.

Sometimes, a sweater is just a sweater, but in the case of Scorpion, the nod here may be to The Shining, after all, therefore, in some ways, extending the mythos of Room 237.

Update: An Antares rocket has blown up.

"Every launch costs U.S. taxpayers $237 million." ~ "Cause sought for space-supply rocket explosion," Oct 29, 2014, WESH, Orlando, Florida.

Please, hold your breath, look at the sweater, note yesterday's posting was about the new series Scorpion, and read on:

Antares, also known by its Bayer designation Alpha Scorpii (abbreviated to α Scorpii or α Sco), is the seventeenth brightest star in the nighttime sky and the brightest star in the constellation Scorpius, and is often referred to as "the heart of the scorpion." Along with Aldebaran, Regulus, and Fomalhaut, Antares comprises the group known as the "Royal stars of Persia." It is one of the four brightest stars near the ecliptic.

The above observations were published late on Monday, October 27, 2014. By coincidence, that evening, an Antares rocket was scheduled to go to the orbiting space station. It was re-scheduled because a sailboat entered the restricted area, off shore. It was set to launch on Tuesday, October 28.

But instead, the unmanned Antares rocket exploded early Tuesday evening.
According to NASA, the Orbital Sciences Corp.'s Antares rocket and Cygnus ( = swan) cargo spacecraft were set to launch at 6:22 p.m. ET. It was to carry some 5,000 pounds of supplies and experiments to the International Space Station.

"There was failure on launch," NASA spokesman Jay Bolden said. "There was no indicated loss of life.

The unmanned Antares rocket exploded shortly after launch from Wallops Flight Facility in Virginia.

The logo for NASA's Wallops Flight Facility (WFF) resembles a stylized trident.

Red Water, Red Blood, Tomahawk, and Hatchet

Update: On Halloween Day, it was announced that Shaylee Chuckulnaskit, 14, had died in the hospital. Later, Andrew Fryberg, 15, died.

The names of those killed, dying by suicide, and injured, thus were

Killed

Students

Zoe Raine Galasso, 14 (died in cafeteria)

Shaylee Chuckulnaskit, 14 (died in hospital)

Gia Soriano, 14 (died in hospital)
Andrew Fryberg, 15 (shot in cafeteria)

Gunman

Jaylen Fryberg, 15 (self-inflicted wound)

Wounded

Nate Hatch, 14 (shot in cafeteria)

Two unidentified victims (minor injuries)

A school shooting took at Marysville-Pilchuck High School (MPHS) - 30 miles north of Seattle - on October 24, 2014. Two students are dead, including the shooter, who died by suicide. Three other students have critical head wounds and a fourth individual has a jaw injury, all due to gunshots.

The student gunman walked up to a specific table in the cafeteria before opening fire. Jordan Luton told CNN, “They were his friends, so it wasn’t just random.” 

The horrific shooting began just after 10 a.m. After attacking the students, the shooter, identified as Jaylan Ray Fryberg turned the gun on himself and killed himself.

Jaylan is a variant of Jalen: modern name, probably from Galen (Greek) "healer; tranquil" with a J-. Ray, from the German, means "protecting hands." Fryberg, also from German, means "freetown."

Jaylan Fryberg was popular, and was named Freshman Prince at the Homecoming Dance on October 17, 2014.

Fryberg was a member of the Tulalip Tribes. The name Tulalip is from Snohomish and means "a bay shaped like a purse." It was used in 1855 to describe the tribes who joined together on the Tulalip Reservation. They are located in the mid-Puget Sound region of Washington State.

In 2011, a youthful Fryberg was mentioned during a ceremony when the Tulalip Tribes donated 1.26 million dollars to the cash-strapped Marysville School District to save some programs. The Everett, Washington Herald noted: "Jaylen Fryberg, 11, was one of four fifth-graders from Tulalip Elementary who attended the award presentation....He was happy some money would go toward his favorite subject — math. 'It’s nice,' he said. 'We get a lot of money for our schools.'"

Fryberg was well-known and proud of his hunting.

Fryberg was involved in sports, football and wrestling, and seemed to often pick the number "33," which he also preferred for part of his Facebook moniker. He put the following on his FB wall, of a January 2014 run-in with local police that showed up in the local paper's "Police Report."

Fryberg’s final tweet, on October 23, 2014, was "it won’t last … it’ll never last."

A day later, Jaylan Fryberg would go to Marysville-Pilchuck High School, and engage in his final acts of homicide and suicide.

“Pilchuck” means “red water” in Chinook Jargon; it is a name that has been given to a number of streams and rivers in Washington State. And at least one high school.

The mascot of MPHS is Tomahawk. 

Tomahawk <> Hatchet

A hatchet, as briefly mentioned previously, was involved in an attack on four New York City police officers on October 23, 2014:

The 2 p.m. apparently unprovoked attack occurred as four police officers were posing for a passing photographer when the suspect charged the group, swinging a hatchet with a four-and-a-half-inch blade, officials said. He struck one officer in the arm and another in the head before two officers drew their weapons and opened fire as he swung the hatchet a third time, officials said.
"No known motive for this attack has been established," Police Commissioner William Bratton told reporters.
The officer struck in the head suffered a fractured skull and was in surgery Thursday evening. As police investigated the scene they discovered a woman a half-block away had been shot in the lower back. She was operated on and is in stable condition.
Police from the Intelligence Division are checking the suspect’s hard drives for any cyber activity. There is nothing at this time connecting him to any radical group and the police are still determining the identity of the suspect, officials said.

Later the suspect, who was shot to death, was identified as Zane H. Thompson.

A body lays covered on Jamaica Avenue near 162nd street in the borough of Queens in New York on Oct. 23. NYPD officers shot dead a man armed with a hatchet who attacked them Thursday afternoon, according to the officials.
