Ground Beetle
I have been thinking about posting this on the internet for the last three years or so. Now I figured I better do it now or forever forget about it.
Be warned, this is pure speculation. I may be dead on. Or I might be stuck in a loony bin.
Soon Independence Day, the 4th of July will be here. I think that day will be one of the most significant days in the history of the world and probably America, too. But why?
Well, come with me as I go off the deep end.
Roman Kingdom
In 509 BC, the Roman Kingdom was in its death throes. The citizens of the Kingdom gained INDEPENDENCE that year and formed the Roman Republic. The Roman Republic eventually morphed into the Roman Empire and then into the Holy Roman Empire.
Today, 2520 years later, the European Union as we know it is in its death throes. Something MUST happen and SOON. But what? As most people know, Europe was the playground of the Roman Empire. If history is any guide, the EU will be replaced THIS YEAR by a "new" Empire just as the Roman Kingdom was replaced millenia ago.
Roman Religion
Also in 509 BC, on the Ides of September, the temple of Jupiter was dedicated in Rome. This effectively revolutionized religion in ancient Rome.
This year, in September, marks the 2520th year since this revolution. Is that significant? I don't know. What I do know is that religion in Roman times was revolutionized at that time.
Assuming that there is significance here, what could we expect in September this year, specifically on the 17th of September, the 2520th anniversary of the dedication of the Temple of Jupiter? Since there was a revolution in religion in Rome in 509 BC, 2560 years ago, it seems logical to me that a new revolution of religion will take shape this September again centered around Rome. But what?
The current Pope is 85 and talking about retiring, so this indeed could be time for radical change in the Vatican. So, will that be the day he "retires?" Or will he institute far reaching changes on that day, yet continue on as the Pope? No clue here. From a historical standpoint, something religiously significant must happen on the 17th of September 2012 in Rome.
The Inaugeration
On the 20th of January 2009, Obama was administered the oath of office and became the 44th President of the United States. There was one minor problem, though. He did NOT utter the oath of office as the Constitution stipulates. Therefore, on the 21st of January he again was administered the oath of office, this time uttering it exactly as the Constitution stipulates. Is this delay of one day significant? Yes.
Malachy Prophecies
Hundreds of years ago a person by the name of St. Malachy penned what is today known as the Malachy Prophecies. In a nutshell, it is a time line of future Popes continuing down to Pope Benedict XVI today. The Pope today is the LAST Pope directly mentioned in the timeline. There is one Peter the Roman mentioned after the end of the timeline, but it is not clear whether he follows Pope Benedict or whether Pope Benedict morphs into Pope Peter. In either case, the prophecies end either with the current Pope, or with a Pope following him.
Does this mean anything? The Popes think so. So what are the possibilities here? What is known for sure is that Malachy made a "normal" list of Popes, then almost as an afterthought mentions Peter the Roman, the only person noted by name in his prophecies. This indicates to me that Malachy thought that Peter would be something other than a "normal" Pope.
Based on a careful reading of the prophecies, there are only two possible conclusions. Due to the obscurity of the wording, it is impossible to know at this time which possibility is correct.
The first possibility plays out that Pope Benedict XVI, the current Pope, is the last Pope mentioned in the prophecies. Due to the Pope's age, this seems unlikely, but is possible.
The second conclusion is that the current Pope is the last in a long line of "normal" Popes and that the Pope following him will be radically different than any other Pope. This seems more likely to me.
The last part of the prophecies is very unclear whether the current Pope has a sudden major life changing shift and continues on to the end of the prophecies, or whether someone radically different from previous Popes takes over the Catholic Church. Either way, something will radically change in the Vatican. And either way, this is the end of the Malachy prophecies.
The Number 1260
In several places in the Bible, the number 1260 occurs in reference to days and years. It is always used as a yardstick to measure time from one major event to another event, either 1260 days or 1260 years down the road. Whether you believe the Bible or not is immaterial. The fact is that events in history DO occur 1260 days or years after other significant events of a similar nature. In the Bible 1260 days is sometimes referred to as 42 months, 3-1/2 years, or 3-1/2 times. And sometimes 1260 days and its cognates mean 1260 years. For example, the tribulation of Revelation is stated as lasting 42 months, or 1260 days.
The Number 2520
Of similar nature is 2520 years, noted as 7 "times" in the Bible. 2520 years is actually 1260 years twice in a row. Events throughout history regularly line up 2520 years apart. For example, Washington, DC became the Capital of the United States in 1800 when Congress and the President moved there from Philadelphia. This is exactly 2520 years after Samaria, the capital of ancient Israel, was conquered by Sargon II of Assyria in 721 BC. Hundreds, if not thousands, of examples like this can be found throughout history.
The Number 1335
This number is also noted in the Bible in conjunction with 1260. However, at this time, I have no clue how it fits into much of anything.
Independence Day, 4 July 2012
Now that the foundation has been laid, we can start putting this all together. Independence Day 2012 is exactly 1260 days after the Constitutionally correct inauguration of Obama. Is that a coincidence? Or was it planned that way? No clue.
Could his tenure in office be a "type" of a tribulation for America with America being freed from this "tribulation" on Independence Day this year? Again, no clue. But America is in tribulation with him in office. Will we gain our independence from this tribulation? Or will we lose what little freedom we have left? Or is this the start of even a greater tribulation? Or am I really buried in a loony bin?
The Romans gained their independence from the Roman Kingdom 2520 years ago. The Roman Kingdom then was in great turmoil. Europe is in great turmoil today. Will the current EU structure collapse or be overthrown and be replaced with a new "United States of Europe?" More importantly, will it happen on the U.S. Independence Day? We do not have long to wait to find out.
More importantly for America, what will our government do as a result of any events in Europe? What radical changes can we expect?
17 September 2012
Interestingly, another Biblically significant number can be attached to the Presidency of Obama, the number 1335. If you count 1335 days from his inauguration day forward you land on the 17th of September 2012. That day is Rosh Hashanah, or the "New Year's Day" of the Hebrew calendar, the same calendar used in the Bible (Our calendar did not exist then). No other President in history has had both numbers (1260 & 1335) line up like this. Is that significant? Again, no clue.
This day is also the 2520th anniversary of the dedication of the Temple of Jupiter in Ancient Rome. It seems logical to me that there should be some kind of a revolution in religion in Rome on this day. Could this be the time the current Pope "retires" and Peter the Roman of the Malachy Prophecies assumes power? Or will the current Pope have a radical change of heart with him becoming Peter the Roman? Or do I belong in the loony bin?
The Near Future
I would watch for anything significant happening in Europe, America, Iran, and Israel on either or both of those dates. In addition, I would watch what the Pope says and does in the next few months. As for whom to watch, I single out Karl Theodor Freiherr von- und zu- Guttenberg, Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI), and Edmund Stoiber, all heavyweights from the German state of Bavaria (Bayern).
Down the road, we can expect another stock market crash in 2013, deeper than the 2008 crash. That is now guaranteed to happen now that Obamacare has been ruled as "legal." Why? For two reasons. First, a cursory examination of the 1930s would reveal that FIVE years after the 1929 crash, there was even a deeper crash, in 1934 to be exact. Five years after 2008 is 2013. More importantly, many major Obamacare provisions kick in at the beginning of 2014. Everyone, businesses and the general population alike, will be making extreme cutbacks in anticipation of the turmoil coming a few months later. Needless to say, another housing bust in coming as well as another stock market crash. And just like in 2008, we can expect to see a massive decline in commodities of all types, including gold and silver.
Even now as I write this, the housing market is again appearing to be very shaky as if it is getting ready to slip over another cliff. Everywhere I go I hear complaints of business being bad. The wrecking yards are selling scrap to pay bills, even though scrap has dropped 15% in price in the last 30 days. Auto shops are again locking their doors for lack of business, and those that remain open are not making money. I would not be surprised to see the current crush price for crushed cars in wrecking yards tumble from the current $250/ton to $20/ton during the next year, just like what happened in 2008.
When I look at gold and silver charts, I see no reason for either gold or silver to go anywhere but down for the foreseeable future. Same with the base metals, Aluminum, Copper, etc. Even the ferrous metals show signs of falling over a cliff. With Europe, China, and others in the midst of severe economic problems, I basically see nothing but down until they get their houses in order.
Further Down the Road
Dates that MAY have significance.
27 October 2012
9 April 2016
10 September 2018
30 September 2019
At this point in time, I have no clue how significant any of these dates may be. They just appear to have some sort of significance. With more research, I can probably eliminate or confirm any significance.
Conclusion
There is a lot of speculation here on my part. Even so, with all of the turmoil going on in Europe and elsewhere, this is worth considering as the turmoil grows.
I have posted bits and pieces of this on the internet for the last three years. However, until I wrote this, I have not posted the complete scenario publicly, though I have sent various renditions of this via email to many people.
Be warned, this is pure speculation. I may be dead on. Or I might be stuck in a loony bin.
