In the year 2126, England was ruled once more by a monarchy and nobles after years of anarchy. The new monarchies were ruled by Queens. When the Queen died, the people would choose representatives who would choose the next queen from the eligible princesses. Air travel was accomplished through balloons, aerial horses (inflated with gas), wings, and aerial sledges. There was also travel by horse, steam trains, and steam boats. Machinary and even automatons (some being used as lawyers, surgeons, and judges) were also run by steam or clockwork. The air quality in England had been greatly improved by the banning of burning coal. England started the practice of using chemicals on marble to create their sculptures. Greeks traveled around England as bards playing lutes and being fortune tellers. Communication was accomplished through telegraph or mail launched in balls by pnuematic cannons. Asbestos was still a commonly used product, including in fashion that employed jets of flame. In England, smaller houses were built on rails so people could visit the countryside without leaving the comforts of home. In the larger houses, an organ with pipes running through the house was played to summon and direct servents. The air composition and flow were regulated in those houses. Food was cooked with a chemical substitute for fire. All the world had been explored. Education was universal. The common tended to speak in a verbose, technical, and scientific way, while the nobility tended to speak simply and tersly. The upper class tended to be very emotional and have fits of passion as well as suffer from psychosomatic illness and exhaustion. England was at war with Germany. Spain, a military state that had been absorbed by Africa that prided itself on being a free republic (though criticizing the government or praising former governments was a mortal offense) was in a civil war with Ireland backing one side and France the other. While cannons and gun powder were used in war, horses, swords, wagons, and walls were still employed. England was once more a Catholic state. Ireland was ruled by a King. Besides his military escapades he engaged in personally, he had designs to lead an expedition to the moon and colonize it. Egypt was no longer filled with desert but turned into a lush agricultural country and the Nile heavily modified with canals. At the Great Pyramid in Egypt, Doctor Entwerfen and Edric revived the mummy Cheops back to life using electricity. The Mummy then traveled to England where he became a political puppet master in the shadows. ("The Mummy! A Tale of the Twenty Second Century" Novel)

Ep 307: What Lies Beneath the Pyramids of Egypt?
"These claims are merely attempts to undermine the grandeur of ancient Egyptian civilization. However, these attempts are futile, and such baseless rumors will ultimately be consigned to the dustbin of history."  -- Dr. Zahi Hawass - Former Minister of Tourism and Antiquities for Egypt, to the media when asked about this story.
Description:
This week, we dive into a viral story that is captivating social media and stirring global debate — a supposed discovery beneath the sands of Giza that some are calling the find of the century. Descriptions of a vast, multi-level complex with geometric passageways, deep shafts, and mysterious chambers have sparked theories ranging from ancient power plants to the legendary Halls of Amenti. Could this be a groundbreaking revelation? A misinterpretation of data? Something even stranger? We’ll explore the evidence, the claims, and the science behind this unfolding mystery to form some theories of our own. So join us as we examine another layer to one of history’s most enduring enigmas.

Daredevil Climber Scales Great Pyramid, Faces Lifetime Ban from Egypt
In January 2016, 18-year-old Andrej Ciesielski from Munich undertook a perilous and unauthorized ascent of Egypt's Great Pyramid of Giza, also known as the Pyramid of Khufu or Cheops.
Despite strict prohibitions against climbing the 4,500-year-old monument, Ciesielski scaled the 138-meter (455-foot) structure in just eight minutes, capturing the experience on video and in photographs.
Ciesielski recounted that he began his climb while listening to music, initially unnoticed. However, halfway up, he attracted attention, and security personnel shouted at him to descend.
Undeterred, he continued to the summit, where he documented panoramic views of the surrounding area.
Upon descending, Ciesielski was detained by Egyptian authorities.
Although climbing the pyramids is illegal and punishable by up to three years in prison, he was released after claiming ignorance of the law and promising not to repeat the offense.
Nevertheless, Egypt's Ministry of Antiquities issued a lifetime ban, prohibiting him from re-entering the country.
Despite authorities confiscating his equipment and deleting the footage, Ciesielski managed to recover and share his materials online, sparking widespread attention and debate over the preservation of historical sites and the risks associated with such stunts.

The Legacy of Pharaoh Khufu and the Great Pyramid of Giza
Khufu, also known as Cheops, holds a significant place in ancient Egyptian history as the second pharaoh of the Fourth Dynasty during the Old Kingdom period, around the 26th century BC. The legacy of Khufu reaches far beyond his lifetime, leaving an indelible mark on the landscape of Egypt and inspiring awe and wonder across the ages. Successor to his father Sneferu, Khufu’s reign was marked by…

It is day no. 2 and today we go back a long way to the time of seafaring. This time the journey also takes us a little into the underworld - with Khufu's sun barque from c. 2500 B.C.
Tumblr media
More about her below
Khufu's sun barque, c. 2500 B.C.
In 1954 the great sun barque of Khufu, ca. 2500 B.C., was discovered on the south side of the Pyramid of Khufu (Cheops), it was almost intact, although dismantled into 1224 parts, as was a second example. However, there is still no agreement about the purpose of these ships. One theory is that the body of the pharaoh Kheops was brought across the Nile and then buried with him. The other version is that the king made a pilgrimage with the ship and thus turned a means of transport into a holy relic. The most recent version is that Khufu did not use the boat, but a son and then laid it down as an offering to his father.
Khufu's ship is one of the oldest, largest and best-preserved vessels from antiquity. It measures 43.6 m (143 ft) long and 5.9 m (19.5 ft) wide. It was thus identified as the world's oldest intact ship and has been described as "a masterpiece of woodcraft" that could sail today if put into a lake, or a river

“Love is from the infinite, and will remain until eternity." - Rumi
Sirius — Lemnis Gate Talon Abraxas
The planet Sirius is the brightest star in heavens. As a binary star system, Sirius is composed of a bright star, called Sirius A and, around it, in an elliptical orbit, moves Sirius B, the first ever, identified dwarf star. Sirius B orbits around Sirius A, every 50 years, causing Sirius to wobble and appear therefore to sparkle more brightly than any other star. All stars sparkle, but none like this one!
Long before scientists ever knew of its existence, and long before any equipment existed that could verify its position in the heavens, many of the ancient civilizations knew that behind the brilliant star that is Sirius, lay a dark, shadow star – a black star that is much smaller and more intense. The records of these ancient civilisations, as far back as 3,000 years ago, include drawings of the movement of Sirius and it’s dwarf, Sirius B. These ancients believed that Sirius was the source of all life, of all energy, and yet detailed knowledge of Sirius and its dwarf star, has only recently been discovered by modern science.
Sirius was at the core of the calendar, texts and sacred knowledge of the ancient, advanced civilisations of Lemuria, Atlantis and the Land of Sumer. The sacred knowledge of the Dogon tribe in northern Africa and aboriginal and indigenous tribes in Australia, South America and Asia also revolves around knowledge of this star.
In Egypt too, much revolved around Sirius, as the gateway and centre of all that is sacred. As far back as the very remote periods of Ancient Egyptian history, the Goddess Isis has been associated with the star Sirius. Specific pyramids were temples to Isis and to Sirius – Her gateway and portal. Sirius, like Isis, was called the Great Provider. The annual rising of the star Sirius brought the inundation of the River Nile, which, in turn, brought fertility, and therefore wealth, to the land of Egypt. It marked the beginning of the Egyptian Sothic Year – the Egyptian calendar.
This heliacal rising of Sirius, as it is known, occurs when Sirius rises on the horizon, together with the sun, and remains visible for a few moments, until it fades with the advance of dawn. The heliacal rising of Sirius takes place on July 26th. It is concurrent with the annual opening of the Sirius stargate known as the Lion’s gate – called the Lion’s Gate because the Sun moves into Leo at this time. The constellation of the Lion, guards the entrance to the Sirius Stargate. The energy of the Lion’s Stargate continues through until August 12th. The potent energies of change that flood in at this time are then available for us to use, for the rest of the year.
The Great pyramid of Cheops, in Egypt, is also aligned to the rise of Sirius. Chambers found within the pyramid are strategically positioned in reference and deference to Sirius. All the mythologies of Isis, Osiris, and Horus in Egypt – and mythologies in the more ancient Land of Sumer – are based upon this Sirius Connection.
Lazaris in the channelled work, ‘The Sirius Connection’ says this:- “Stars and planets dot your heavens. Many are vortexes where energy enters your universe and where energy leaves your universe. The grandest of these vortexes is Sirius – the Vortex of the Goddess”.
1994 saw two incredible astronomical and celestial occurrences – the Grand Union of Sirius – when Sirius A and Sirius B came as close to each other as they can be – and the re-positioning of Pluto which came into exact alignment with it. Such an event had not occurred in more than 90.000 years and will not reoccur for another 90,000 years. When this rarest of rare alignments took place, the Vortex of Sirius opened.
Lazaris says: – “The Vortex of the Goddess through which all energy enters and leaves your Universe, through which all the Archetypal energy flows, through which your Higher Self’s energy enters, has opened wide and opened full”.
“When the Vortex opened it filled you with Light, a Light that will change, grow, transmute and transform you. Through it flowed the Light and Love that can allow you to transcend what has been, and to create what will be. It is through the gateway represented by the brilliant blue-white star Sirius – that all the energy enters your universe – the energy that is your very Soul and Spirit, the energy of your Higher Self”.
“This is a time of new birth and of new life. It is the time of the grandest transmutation, the grandest transformation and yes, of the grandest transcendence that has ever occurred. The Goddess is returning and She brings with Her a Light, a Light that once lit, cannot be extinguished.”
