APOLLYON RISING 2012 by Tom Horn the Final Mystery of the Great Seal Revealed a Terrifying and Prophetic Cipher, Hidden from the World by the U.S APOLLYON RISING 2012 By Tom Horn The Final Mystery Of The Great Seal Revealed A Terrifying And Prophetic Cipher, Hidden From The World By The U.S. Government For Over 200 Years Is Here SPRINGFIELD, MO – It was 2:AM when suddenly I sat straight up in bed. A moment earlier during REM sleep (rapid eye movement) when most dreams or “night visions” occur, a last piece of an important puzzle had fallen into place, shaking me from slumber. I had been wrestling with certain images and enigmatic information for years, trying to make sense of what I had found. But not until recently had something deeper troubled me. It was as if an ominous voice somewhere was ready to show me what I was finally able to receive. Of course I was very familiar with transcendent subject matter. I had been involved with religious institutions for more than 30 years in official capacities including as an executive in the largest evangelical organization in the world. During that same time I had appeared on international television and radio programs with opportunity to expand my presence to a regular audience, if desired. Yet it was not until a brief stint working with exorcisms that I had come face to face with authentic supernaturalism and had finally begun questioning the differences between indoctrination and revelation, knowledge and wisdom, religion and relationship, good and evil. It was here at last that my arrogant disposition, which had served my significant ego like a triumphant battle horse for decades, fell weak. The sword of a superb memory that had allowed me to chop down others with proof texts and so-called writs of fact had at once become as empty as the tomb of Jesus Christ. I wouldn’t know until later how necessary that rebirth and change of heart and mind had been. Some of the very people I had mocked as conspiratorial had turned out to be closer to understanding these enigmatic truths than I ever had. Naivete and blind acceptance, especially of specific controlled versions of American history had kept me in the dark, blinded from the actual course that a frightening network of hidden powers had set our nation upon years before. Then came “The Angel in the Whirlwind”, and pieces of the puzzle began rapidly falling into place. Things were making sense now – world affairs, changes to U.S. domestic and foreign policy, a renewed focus on the Middle East, Israel, Iran, Iraq, Babylon – and I found it astonishing. The words, deeds, gestures and coded language of the world’s most powerful men clearly pointed to an ancient, prophetic, cryptic and even terrifying reality. As outlined in this series of articles based on my upcoming new book APOLLYON RISING 2012: The Final Mystery Of The Great Seal Revealed -- A Terrifying And Prophetic Cipher, Hidden From The World By The U.S. Government For Over 200 Years Is Here, the startling truths behind the clandestine society that helped frame the United States and placed within the Great Seal a prophetic Secret Doctrine can finally be understood. What even the best researchers of the Illuminati and veiled fraternities such as the Freemasons were never able to fully decipher is spelled out herein for the first time. The power at work behind global affairs and why current planetary powers are hurriedly aligning for a New Order from Chaos is exposed. Perhaps most incredibly, one learns how ancient prophets actually foresaw and forewarned of this time. One caution: If you are a person that is happy living in a “Matrix”, cradled in the warm embrace of illusions, I recommend that you lay this study aside and enjoy your remaining days uninformed. But if like the millions of others around the world you have recently awakened with a sense that something foreboding is unfolding on earth, then this information is for you. If you believe that a global event, which so far nobody has been able to clearly explain is on the horizon, this information is for you. If you feel whatever is happening is both physical and spiritual, yet you cannot solve the conundrum of what is stirring beneath the surface, this information is for you. If you hunger to discern the meaning behind the raging turmoil recently enveloping nature, societies, and global politics, this information is for you. But prepare yourself for the unexpected, including truly startling and often discomforting information, which you have not heard or read anywhere before. What has been hidden in plain sight for more than 200 years is preparing to reveal itself to humanity. The clock is ticking and the hand is closer to midnight than most can comprehend. Something wicked this way comes. The occult desire of the ages is here. And once you understand the secret, you will know what you have to do to survive. Summoning the Angel from the Whirlwind "Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive, that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it." –Woodrow Wilson "The real rulers in Washington are invisible and exercise power from behind the scenes." –U.S. Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter On January 20, 2001, President George W. Bush during his first inaugural address faced the obelisk known as the Washington Monument and twice referred to an angel that "rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm." His reference was credited to Virginia statesman John Page who wrote to Thomas Jefferson after the Declaration of Independence was signed, saying, "We know the race is not to the swift nor the battle to the strong. Do you not think an angel rides in the whirlwind and directs this storm?’’ Five weeks after the inaugural, on Wednesday, February 28, Congressman Major R. Owens of New York stood before the House of Representatives and prayed to the "Angel in the Whirlwind." He asked the spiritual force to guide the future and fate of the United States[1]. Twenty-eight weeks later (for a total of 33 weeks from the inaugural—a number invaluable to mysticism and occult franternities), nineteen Islamic terrorists (according to the official story) attacked the United States, hijacking four commercial airliners and crashing two of them into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, a third into the Pentagon, and a fourth, which had been directed toward Washington, DC crashed near Shanksville, Pennsylvania. What happened that day resulted in nearly 3000 immediate deaths, at least two-dozen missing persons, and the stage being set for changes to the existing world order. When Bush was giving his second inaugural speech four years later, he again offered cryptic commentary, saying, "For a half century, America defended our own freedom by standing watch on distant borders. After the shipwreck of communism came years of relative quiet, years of repose, years of sabbatical - and then there came a day of fire...." A few paragraphs following, Bush added, "By our efforts, we have lit a fire as well - a fire in the minds of men. It warms those who feel its power, it burns those who fight its progress, and one day this untamed fire of freedom will reach the darkest corners of our world." The phrase, "a fire in the minds of men," is from Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s nineteenth century book, The Possessed (The Devils), a novel set in pre-revolutionary Russia where civil resistance is seen championed by nihilist Sergei Nechaev who tries to ignite a revolution of such destructive power that society will be completely destroyed. The fact that a United States president would quote this phrase in an official speech of record was astonishing to many analysts, given that The Possessed is about violent government crackdown on dissent that sparks civil unrest and revolution marked by public violence.[2] Fire in the Minds of Men is also the title that historian James H. Billington chose for his famous book on the history of revolutions, including the origin of occult Freemasonry and its influence in the American Revolution. In his closing comments, Bush himself tied the inaugural crypticisms to the Masonic involvement in the American Revolution, saying, "When our Founders declared a new order of the ages… they were acting on an ancient hope that is meant to be fulfilled." The phrase "a new order of the ages" is taken from the Masonically designed Great Seal ("Novus Ordo Seclorum") and Bush further acknowledged that the secret society members were acting on an "ancient" hope that is "meant to be fulfilled." To the illumined elite and a handful of historians and scholars, the inaugural addresses by the president were important editions in a larger series of carefully crafted speeches in which line-by-line analysis of his public references uncovered what appeared to be coded language designed to convey shrouded messages at regular interval to select members of his global audience. Biblical scholar Bruce Lincoln’s examination of a speech delivered by Bush to the nation on October 7, 2001, announcing the U.S. attack on Afghanistan [3] repeat verified this practice, producing redundant hidden references from Apocalyptic books of the Bible concerning the End Times. Lincoln concluded that the word crafting was a strategy of "double coding" to secretly appeal to people who saw Bush as divinely called to stand up to the enemies of God in an unfolding event in the Middle East, which they believed was foretold in the books of Revelation, Isaiah and other ancient texts.

  • Berlin - Wikipedia
    Berlin - Wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Berlin Coordinates: 52°30′26″N 13°8′45″E Berlin From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Berlin (/bɜːrˈlɪn, ˌbɜːr-/, German: [bɛɐ̯ˈliːn]) is the capital and the largest city of Germany as well as one of its 16 Berlin constituent states, Berlin-Brandenburg. With a State of Germany population of approximately 3.7 million,[4] Berlin is the most populous city proper in the European Union and the sixth most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Located in northeastern Germany on the banks of the rivers Spree and Havel, it is the centre of the Berlin- Brandenburg Metropolitan Region, which has roughly 6 million residents from more than 180 nations[6][7][8][9], making it the sixth most populous urban area in the European Union.[5] Due to its location in the European Plain, Berlin is influenced by a temperate seasonal climate. Around one- third of the city's area is composed of forests, parks, gardens, rivers, canals and lakes.[10] First documented in the 13th century and situated at the crossing of two important historic trade routes,[11] Berlin became the capital of the Margraviate of Brandenburg (1417–1701), the Kingdom of Prussia (1701–1918), the German Empire (1871–1918), the Weimar Republic (1919–1933) and the Third Reich (1933–1945).[12] Berlin in the 1920s was the third largest municipality in the world.[13] After World War II and its subsequent occupation by the victorious countries, the city was divided; East Berlin was declared capital of East Germany, while West Berlin became a de facto West German exclave, surrounded by the Berlin Wall [14] (1961–1989) and East German territory.

    Helene Hollandt Villa Salve Hospes Lessingplatz 12 38100 Braunschweig, Deutschland President Sally Smith Buffalo Wild Wings Headquarters 5500 Wayzata Blvd. Ste. 1600 Minneapolis, MN 55416 Hello Sally and Helene, I imagine you’re both wondering who one another is and why you’re CC’d on the same letter. Helene – since 1996 Sally has been the president and chief executive officer of Buffalo Wild Wings, a sports bar/stadium themed chicken chain restaurant with over 1000 locations in ten different countries. Sally – Helene was the adopted daughter of a wealthy German hop and grain merchant, born in 1816, who lived her adult life as a mother and homemaker. Though she died in 1866 her ghost allegedly haunts her home, the Villa Salve Hospes, which is now a Kunstverein (kind of like a sports stadium but for art). I also want to thank both of you before I get carried away: Sally for responding to my last letter, and Helene for what could be called implied hospitality during my stay. I’m aware this must all seem like nonsense, but I promise we’ll be on the same page by the end. I find myself in Germany again. I travel here more often than any other country to make and show my work. I think we “get” each other, and I can’t complain. It seems like art institutions always have some old D-marks hidden underneath their sofakissen. Ask, and the Germans will most likely find the means through which you can receive. I used to have this problem with Germany though.

  • 15/04/15 – Trip to Berlin (Virginia Mwangi) During the Easter Holiday
    15/04/15 – Trip to Berlin (Virginia Mwangi) During the Easter holiday break, I was able to visit the following attractions while in Berlin. • The Reichstag building • The Jüdisches Museum Berlin • Brandenburg gate • Berlin wall • Potsdamer Platz • Alexander Platz • Berlin Cathedral • Fernsehturm • Berlin Victory column • Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church I learnt a lot during my short stay in Berlin and will mention a few things that stood out to me and that I was able to learn about. The Memorial to the murdered Jews of Europe and the Memorial to the Sinti and Roma of Europe. I learnt that not just the Jews were persecuted but also the Sinti and Roma. The Nazi dictatorship inflicted a great injustice on them as they were persecuted on reasons of race. The well with a central retractable stone is however very beautiful. The Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church. This church caught my eye while still on the bus due to its grand nature and destroyed roofing. I found out that the Church is a memorial to peace and reconciliation and the futility of war. Architecturally the old church and new church also contrast modernism and history. The Reichstag The Brandenburg gate. This is now a symbol of unity after the Berlin wall fell in 1989, uniting the East and the West Germany. The four horsed Chariot at the top driven by Queen Victoria (the winged goddess of victory) is also very cool. The Victory Column. This was erected as a memorial to the Prussian Victories over Denmark, Austria and France. I discovered that it was originally designed for the square facing the Reichstag, but was moved to Großer Stern under Hitlers rule in 1938 as part of their refurbishment plans for the new world capital, Germania.
