A Postscript To Antarctica: A Once and Future Atlantis: The Myth of The Eternal Return
With Apologies to Mircea Eliade
"Sometimes I believe that this less material life is our truer life, and that our vain presence on the terraqueous globe is itself the secondary or merely virtual phenomenon."
- H.P. Lovecraft
The prismatic effects of history are neither confined to the past or the future but are also a shadow that is thrown upon this world by what we summon forth in the present. After completing a four part series of mythology and recurrence, I was left with a nagging sense that that recurrence,or the butterfly effect, the approximate return of a system towards its initial conditions, and the uncertainty factor as to origin and stability factors, led me to ruminate further, toward the CERN Experiment as it is unquestionably, a form of intentional tampering, which seemingly began on a global scale from the atomic bomb to the The Super Proton Synchrotron, which creates an energy density unimaginable a few decades ago. Again, the search for an origin narrative was at play. Then we have the global search for the return of the dead, an inverse play upon an origin story that links to recurrence, a subject I wrote about in terms of genetics and the symmetry between postmortem reports and somatic traces in regard to reincarnation cases.
I was recently revisiting some of my past short essays on Ufology, particularly, "Some Musings On Quantum Events" among others. The connection between the conjuring found in Necromancy and the role of intention found in recent quantum theories and experimentation's found me steering toward a perverse possibility based on several correspondences in the realm of the paranormal. Another was the strange distancing of some individuals and of popular culture between intention, behavior and what eventually comes as a surprise to them, which is yet another hallmark of the anomalous as well as it's recurrence in history. Yet, a certain cliche rings true in that the more things change, the more they remain the same.
This strange quest of the uninvited has been known by many names, and then coincidentally I happened to happen upon the movie Close Encounters, and the scene wherein the missing pilots and civilians were returned to Earth by benign aliens. I thought of how closely this resembles the return of the dead in various belief systems in a variety of contexts, again the guise of mythos had repositioned the rearrangement of reincarnation, or the survival of apparent death in a new context.
In particular the role of shaman and the necromancer who dabbles and then subsequently becomes obsessed with bridging one realm to the other in specific terms, where, by intent and will, one releases the barrier between the proverbial creatures of Gog and Magog who subsequently reek havoc on the ill founded temptation to tamper with a natural order. The theories of the paranormal nature of Bigfoot, led me at one time to reexamine in this blog, the Islamic and Christian accounts of supernatural beings which appear late in the history of our planet to compete with us for scarce resources and this echoed in my mind as well as to the root of chaos and decoherence due to our own state of being is highly probable if not provable, to be upside down.
This strange psychology then corresponds back in a literal manner to the Antarctic\Atlantis theory of planetary, axial reorientation due to an equilibrium of balance being disturbed and the irony of our own tampering with planetary organics leading perhaps, once again to this imbalance of forces caused by behavioral systems..... again, intangible materiality at play, observed only by effect akin to energy waves.
Tampering with organics of the equilibrium found in the natural world in order to acquire a disproportionate share of it's distribution in advance of a comprehensive knowledge as to what this portends is the history of our species. This proclivity to wrest and wring a harvest of forces within a range of geological,energetic and biological systems which are enfolded into one another, as we certainly know from the annals of history that are peculiarly our own, that there are always unintended consequences when one is either willfully or intentionally ignorant of the uncertainty principle.
Whether it is the issues of engineering of agriculture leading to overpopulation in the Mayan civilization or the mass invocation of the return of the dead through necromancy as a proverbial lifestyle, we do not require a quantum measure as a simple examination in the microcosm of Newtonian action and reaction will perhaps suffice as the reception of a strange signal communication arrives to deconstruct our terms.
We often mistake context for a inferred scale of measurement, objectifying an immeasurable by semiotic referents inferring an identification by similarities, rather than an incomparable. A simple error such as this leads to a stack of self referential footnotes having more to due with our cybernetics of terms than with our realities in the face of the uncertainty principle which we have been loathe to acknowledge in any meaningful way, throughout our own history. I again returned to the strange phenomenon of energy clouds at CERN and Fermi Labs, and thought to myself if I took a poll of Ufologists how many read anything outside of their own specialty? I suspect that quite a few do, then why do we have the same prosaic plot lines recurring? I suspect that the relationship between the paranormal and ufology is much stronger than most suspect as "coincidences" are often simply the result of not having either a coherent theory as well as a long human history of assigning premature mythologies to unexplainable natural phenomenon which seems unnatural or paranormal to us. That is not to say it does not exist.
As for myself, we seem to have four parallel movements, the development of quantum theory whose increasing complexity parallels the advent and nature of the UFO phenomenon, the destruction of organic planetary systems and the increasing decoherence of technology and world governance. It is as if one is the movement of my feet upon the deck of a ship, the other the ship though the water, the other, the ocean's circulation around the globe and the last the planet's own rotation.
In these forces, recurrence and the complexity of chaos seems to be the nexus of a violent shift that originated in the conditions of a butterfly effect, whether in the history of the mind, history or that of the universe, in that we do not know how this tale began, and so any measurement is likely to be difficult if not impossible to ascertain, inasmuch none of us where here as observers when it began, in order to track it's movement through the many forces at play through the epochs.
I also sense a hidden choreography, a ballet between those UFOs that are man made and those which are not, which seems to be a profound metaphor of a contest being waged between certainty and deconstruction, being played out in secrecy. One path leads to fate and the other to a revision of what we term reality. One is a operative spirit and the other is an operative psychology. As soon as Godel unraveled the basis of logic, something appeared as a signal beacon announcing the verification by demonstration, of this discovery.As we began to tamper with the transmutation of planetary elements, something began to tamper with us in a Newtonian reaction.

Necromancy (IPA: /ˈnekɹəˌmænsɪ/) (Greek νεκρομαντία, nekromantía) is a form of divination in which the practitioner seeks to summon "operative spirits" or "spirits of divination", for multiple reasons, from spiritual protection to wisdom. The word necromancy derives from the Greek νεκρός (nekrós), "dead", and μαντεία (manteía), "divination". Anyone familiar with the history of this term knows that it was not until the darkness arising from the result of the fall of the Roman Empire did this term become culturally linked to demons, the black arts and so forth. We seemingly have not left that fall from grace.
One of the more entertaining and profound discussions in the realm of quantum phenomenon is the discussion among physicists which revolves around the role of the observer is the chief difficulty when one extends certain aspects of this theory, how difficult it would be to determine with any objectivity or not, whether one was dead or alive by the means of comparative relationships between referents.Perhaps the same Gordian Knot can be visualized between wakefulness and a apparently vivid dream state.
This role of necromancy toward unseen forces, is a mirror of the foibles of human psychology. whether it is in the enormous and unprecedented shot across the bow of the energy field as evidenced by CERN or the aggressive behavior of those seeking the dead and as both are tacts in the quest for an origin narrative by inverse logic,one apparently mirrors the other.
In our own epoch we find an unprecedented field that is being worked, tilled and harvested at a exponentially rate of growth which then as a form of signal communication in the form of the waves of a spectrum in which television is carried which is then, as a form of ritual calling forth of the dead, is repeated ad nauseum through a realm I am well acquainted with, that of the dead, to draw them nigh, to taunt, promise things which one has no power to provide, as well as generally treat those who have paid their debt to nature, with disrespect.
The amusing irony in this is that when they are disturbed for simply one's own gratification, one finds the necromancer treated with irritation, anger and a generic reply that informs the would be violator, that they wish to be left alone.
Of course, now we have our own cultural anthropology of a market driven behaviorism that sees profit in this. Tourism also as an act of coin exchange promotes necromancy as a vicarious amusement. The dead have not let me rest in this when they come to me in their own manner in the provocative lucidity of dreams to say to those who would have eyes and ears, which they lack, to be careful what you wish for, by heeding this simple warning.
Ghost hunting as necromancy as it is now popularly termed is a form of predatory behavior that as an issue of ethical and moral self examination discounts the nature of one's own familial relations in regard to the shoe being on the other foot as well as one's own upcoming venture into the grave.
Human nature in the throes of an evolutionary form of self examination itself is lured by it's own curiosity to perform a series of recurrent behaviors that to some from another vantage point, are simply transposed from their cultural context from one civilization to another, rulers and their rationalizations come and go but the weaknesses of human psychology have unfortunately have remained. As Mr G advised nothing has fundamentally changed from the most remote prehistory of our species that we condescendingly refer to as primitive to that of more ornate expressions we call "civilization" or the mass engagement of the many for the benefit of the few, and as Kurt Vonnegut was prone to say with an appropriate sigh... "and so it goes..."
However at hand we have an extraordinary circumstance in the means of our signal communications both empirical and otherwise and as some prophetic, wiser observers have noted in regard to the predictability of our psychology we may receive what we wish for, which is the en mass return of the dead to witness our own demise at the hands of the other behaviors which have largely led us to the destruction of many environments both that which we can sense and those we cannot.
Ghosts of a certain nature perhaps float en mass above our heads, shimmering, and in their cloud like irradiation may be answering our necromancy with a response in volume in kind, a proverbial invasion that does not recognize a territorial claim.Of course, like other aspects of the paranormal, there is misidentification, fraud and perceptional abstractions in the minds of those who seek the dead as well as those who seek other atmospheric effects. Then again, the uncertainty principal has two faces. Perhaps the seal that separates the living from the dead has been opened and the tidal, circulatory movement of forces we have irrevocably altered without a full accounting of their interrelationship in an unseen and non sensate realm have come upon us as an intermediate force, having crossed this demarcation by the foolishness of our own intent and invitation, fostered by a pride that prefers ignorance to self examination. After all, what is more alien to us than our own nature?
"Turning and turning in the widening gyre
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart; the center cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.
Surely some revelation is at hand..."
-W.B Yeats
We have run into the darkness of a blind alley only to see the silhouette of the pursued trapped at the precipice of a barrier with it's back facing toward us, as it slowly turns to confront us, we see it has two faces wedded together in a mockery of our distinctions which have been neatly filed as disparate fragments separated by an ill founded logic of objectifying semiotics as referents in our own cognition. Dualities are welded inseparable in the sky and within our own biology, becoming a tunneling phenomenon through which these phantoms walk, only to collapse as waves upon the shore on which we seemingly stand to greet our invited guests in the far lands between Heaven and Earth, as we approach them.
The esoteric analysis of the meaning of the "horn" which soundsat the reinvention of space time is perhaps contained by the physics of a narrowing shape of intersected and concentric circles or waves, the energetic nature of sound as a vibratory principle, which form a proverbial trumpet which begins at delimited probability to an intermediary realm of non human sentience in the form termed Angels, narrowing to dreams, each wave having a more constituent coherence in relation to density as points of transmission, or that of waves becoming a variety of loci, and then further to you and everyone else comprising the aggregate sum of humanity which pulses or breathes in both an upward and downward exchange of locus, or states and stations. As to the role of intent, chaos and the circular nature or cycles of evolutionary origins, one considers the current path of necromancy as well as that of tampering and how they may indeed have consequences that are unintended, as our position in relation to the structure of this instrument may portend that we either consciously or blindly are free to play it, in the many worlds of physics, as we may also may be free to destroy it, or simply remain as we are, regardless of our station and state in the larger free exchange of evolution. If space time is a continuum and that in a larger context it pulses in our dimensional orientation between an alpha and omega, some witnesses may be called forth to rejoin at the omega to attest to the veracity of this state of affairs by circumstance, or being at the nexus where the end constitutes yet another origin of an infinite variety, individual, planetary, galactic and that of the universe that constitutes all as we are the eyes and ears of a sentience which explores it's nature we correspondingly explore ourselves through it's mirror.
