Something is Rotten In the State of Denmark

The question that you may be asking yourself is, if the Tychos model is correct, why hasn’t it been shouted from the rooftops? Why hasn’t it been promoted by science and backed by the large space centers such as NASA? The answer likely lies in the Noble Lie. In Plato’s Republic, he writes about the Noble Lie. The Noble Lie is an idea, myth, or a lie knowingly propagated by an elite to maintain social harmony. In this case, there may be more to this lie than just social harmony. The lie may also be to maintain a system that relies on the lie; University funding, the Church and so on. So what exactly is this lie? And why was it told?

It helps to look back at medieval times. To the time of the inception of the Copernican deception, and to look at Kepler, whose three laws promoted the Copernican model. We look at his relationship to Tycho Brahe and the likely intentional propagation of the Noble Lie, through the Copernicus system.

The Kepler-Copernicus Model

Copernicus proposed the theory of a heliocentric universe in 1532. At the time, it didn’t catch on. It was a model that many liked, including Johannes Kepler, but it was heresy! This didn’t stop Kepler; instead, he built on Copernicus’s idea that the Earth revolved around the Sun. One great problem with the model was Mars. Kepler felt that if he had access to accurate data on Mars that in a very short time he would be able to prove that Earth orbited the Sun. He was so confident he claimed in could do it in seven (7) days. Kepler spent five (5) years in what he called his war on Mars. He claimed to have finally solved it with his laws of the universe. He proposed that not only did the Earth revolve around the Sun, but also the three laws that governed the movement of planets. This is what Kepler called the three laws of planetary motion.

The first law is that some planets have an elliptical path around the Sun (the law of ellipses); the second law is that an imaginary line drawn from the center of the Sun to the center of the planet sweeps out in equal areas and in equal intervals of time. This is the Law of Equal Areas. The third law was that the ratio of the squares of the periods of any two planets is equal to the ratio of the cubes of their average distances from the Sun. This is the Law of Harmonies. Kepler released these Laws, promising to release the data that supported them. This data was, in fact, data he inherited from another astronomer. That astronomer was Tycho Brahe.

Tycho Brahe was another astronomer who, like many during his time, was also obsessed with Mars. Tycho was an astronomer who was known for his precise catalogue of planetary movements. And Tychos Brahe was Kepler’s boss! Tycho was a Dutch astronomer/astrologer working in the Dutch court and later in the court of Rudolf II. Notorious for his lifestyle, he is sadly most remembered for his drinking, brawling and for having a golden nose, which he lost in a duel. Tycho Brahe, however, proposed the theory that Mars and the Sun have overlapping orbits. Unfortunately, Tycho died only one year after Kepler went to work for him, resulting in Kepler inheriting all of his data. Though Tycho Brahe had accumulated data that supported his model, Kepler took it and formulated his law to support the Kepler-Corporican heliocentric model. Kepler did not, however, release his supporting data at the same time; he held on, making adjustments and working his math to make his tables work. And to make it work, Kepler fudged the data! This is summarized in two articles, "Kepler’s Fabricated Figures – Covering up the Mess in the New Astronomy" by W. H. Donahue -Journal for the History of Astronomy (1988), which is found on the NASA site. The New York Times summarizes this information in two articles: Pioneer Astronomer Faked Orbit Theory, Scholar Says New York Times / Orlando Sentinel, January 23, 1990 and After 400 Years, a Challenge to Kepler: He Fabricated His Data, Scholar Says, By William J. Broad

Interestingly, even though Kepler fudged his data, Kepler’s model didn’t explain Mars’ orbit. Planets needed to speed up or slow down to make up distances. But this is where gravity supposedly came in later to explain the speeds at which planets move. By this time, it seemed to be forgotten that Mars had an aberration that happened only once every 15 and then 17 years as measured against the stars. Gravity also failed to explain the orbit of Mars; for it to be so, it would mean that gravity was not consistent. Mars would need to speed up even faster for some unknown reason at the end of the 15th and 17-year period. This Mars cycle will be explained in depth later in the book.

But why doesn’t mainstream science acknowledge or further explore these anomalies? Even though they know Kepler lied, the science seems settled. Another theory is that they do know. For instance, NASA sent out Pioneer 10 and 11 in 1983 to try to find out why our Earth and all planets in the universe have a tilt in a particular direction and the same degree. The only publication you can find on it now is in the 1987 New Illustrated Science and Invention Encyclopedia, ¹. The article published pointed to a 10th planet and a dead star. And shortly after, NASA published that Kepler had lied. But they left it there. Nothing more was said or explored.

Tycho Brahe died of poisoning only one year after Kepler went to work with him at Rudolf II’s court. This conspiracy is explored in the book Heavenly Intrigue by Joshua Guider, where he outlines a motive for Kepler's killing of Tycho Brahe. Though remaining a theory, Tycho Brahe’s body has been exhumed twice to try to help determine the true story.

And then there is a curious link in Shakespeare's play, Hamlet, which was released and performed a year after Tycho Brahe’s death. The play is based on a Norse Myth called Amleth. The writers of Hamlet’s Mill demonstrate that this myth, along with all myths, are transmission tools for imparting knowledge about the cosmos. Amleth is a myth about the Great Year, or the approximate 25,000-year cycle of Earth. Shakespeare is said to be a cipher, and one wonders if this play was specifically about hidden knowledge from Tycho Brahe’s model? Interestingly, Hamlet uses two of Tycho Brahe’s cousins’ names as characters: Rosencrantz and Guildenstern. Noteworthy is how the play differs in its transmission of the myth, as if trying to change the ending! This would not be the first time that, for political and religious reasons, an attempt to stop the turning of the ages would be attempted. This was the story of Jesus, whose birth was said to have marked the turning of the age into the age of Pisces.

These all remain curious question marks. We cannot know for certain, but suffice it to say that “something is rotten in the state of Denmark”. The data does not add up. There are questions of motives and possible corruption. This alone should propel us to question and seek the truth.

Did Kepler Lie or worse Kill Tycho Brahe?

Tycho Brahe was exhumed in 1901, and hair from his mustache was analyzed in 1996 and then again in 2010 for signs of poisoning. Throughout the years, it has been highly suspected that he was murdered. Did Kepler have the propensity to lie, or worse, to kill? This theory was explored in the book called Heavenly Intrigue, Johannes Kepler, Tycho Brahe and The Murder Behind one Histories Greatest Discoveries. In it, Joshua Gilder and Anne-Lee Gilder build a compelling case. Here we look briefly at the natal charts of both Tycho Brahe and Johannes Kepler.

Kepler’s Nativity1:

 

Kepler had the Sun, Venus and Mercury in Capricorn. This would have made him highly ambitious, as Capricorn is the sign of ambition. Though Uranus was not known in his time, Uranus is also there, suggesting that he would play a part in changing the structure and status quo. Gemini Ascendant is conjunct Neptune and squaring Pluto, conjunct Jupiter in Pisces. This certainly describes a person who may not be what he seems and does have the propensity to lie, particularly with the energy in Gemini and mutable signs. In addition, he had a Gemini Moon which trined Mars, but was inconjunct Mercury. This might have led him to be impatient with results or data. Mars squaring Uranus also points to this impatience. Kepler initially wanted to be a religious leader, was a Lutheran, but was motivated to find an understanding of the Pythagorean Music of the Spheres. Kepler’s first love was religion, and one wonders if Kepler was the founder of scientism rather than the laws of the universe.

Was Tycho Murdered?

Tycho Brahe was a Capricorn with Aquarius rising and Venus and Pluto conjunct his ascendant2. This would make him a controlling and jealous person, or conversely, others would be controlling and jealous of him.

On his death, the north node was close to his Sun; he died exactly two months before his birthday on December 24th, and on December 24, 1601, there was an eclipse that landed exactly on his natal Sun (converted from Julian to Gregorian calendar)

Kepler was also affected by this eclipse. He had Mercury (and Uranus, but that was unknown to them at the time) square to Mars in his chart. He often referred to it in his journals (or self-analysis) as the reason for his inability to get along with people, creating an enemy list which he often plotted against. One wonders if in 1600 he gets serious about his plotting. The authors reveal that he writes to the Austrian archduke Ferdinand to offer his services as court astronomer. Give me the chance, Kepler promises, “and very soon, with God granting, I will aspire to some distinction under [your] banners, which even Tycho himself will have to acknowledge, and which may establish the glory of old Alfonse, flourishing again . . . in Austria for all posterity.” Kepler was referring to the thirteenth-century Alfonso X of Castile, whose support of the work that produced the Alfonsine Tables was one of the most celebrated examples of scientific patronage in European history to that point. With Kepler’s help, Ferdinand’s court would be draped in equal glory for all time to come. He then submits a detailed critique of Brahe’s lunar theory, based on data Brahe shared with him. He admits that he received these observations only orally, but they were fundamental enough to allow him to compute eclipses. An upcoming lunar eclipse, Kepler proposes, will give him the chance to demonstrate the flaws in Brahe’s reasoning and the superiority of his own theory of lunar motion.

Kepler is deep in his exploration of the eclipses of the time and would have noticed the upcoming eclipses affecting both his and Brahe’s charts. He also says in his journal, within which he always refers to himself in the third person:

This personality [Kepler’s] is very well suited for every kind of pretense. This arises from the excellence of the personality. But there is also present a lust for pretending, for deceiving, for lying. . . . Mercury causes this, stimulated by Mars. But two things hinder these deceptions: first, the fear of gaining a bad reputation. For he is first of all desirous of true praise and cannot endure defamation of any kind. . . . The other thing that holds back these deceptions is that they often backfire even when well and cautiously set up... The second reason goes back to the first. Mishaps bring shame and confusion.

It’s as though he is now weighing whether he can get away with it.

Astrologically, it would be said that the eclipse triggered this Mars/Mercury alignment. He might have even thought that God wanted him to do it!

As for Tycho Brahe, an eclipse of the Sun can bring illness on its own. In this instance, Kepler’s Mercury, literally (with the poison) may have eclipsed Tycho Brahe!

So, the likelihood is that Kepler lied and may have had something to do with the death of Tycho Brahe. But what would be the motivation?

The Noble Lie

Kepler was consumed by finding musical harmony in the movement of the planets. Harmony was at the core of his cosmic model, and he was deeply interested in the harmony of the sphere, writing about it in Harmonices Mundi, The Harmony of the World, published in 1619. He, like Plato, believed that musical harmony could be described in terms of musical ratios and harmonies. He used the angular velocities of the planets to create a theoretical musical scale for the planets. Plato did the same thing. Plato created a creation story that described the creation of the cosmos through the demiurge using musical ratios. Plato does this in Timaeus, which also features the story of Atlantis. In her book The Next Octave, Stephanie McPeak Peterson3 breaks down Plato’s belief system, which results in the mistuning of music to temper society. After all, Atlantis was a free-for-all society resulting in their own demise, and this should not be allowed. The mistuning, she argues, was to temper society, but also give favour to the elite, who would not be subject to the same rules or structure. The example she uses in her book by applying the same tempering to the economic and monetary system. It seems likely that Kepler would have had similar intentions. According to the authors of Heavenly Intrigue, Kepler remained highly religious and his astronomical ambitions were heavily influenced by this. This was a time of a quest for alchemy and the alchemical recipe for gold. It was a time when Plato and other writings resurfaced to incite a renaissance of ancient knowledge. Kepler was connected to and made alliances with royalty and others in power. That said, it wasn’t until the Copernicus revolution, which occurred in the 1687’s when Issac Newton established the idea of gravity that Copernicus would replace Tycho Brahe’s model.

 

Rudolf Steiner claimed that the medievalists, such as Kepler and others, decided to switch the order of the planets, particularly Venus and Mercury. Was this for spiritual or religious reasons? Was it to hide some alchemical truth? Whether turning lead into gold was a spiritual or a material goal, whether these secrets were hidden by the church or the King, we cannot know. Both hold a power that makes their need for control seem likely. The church might like to control spiritual alchemy, and this seemed to be the goal in controlling the Bible books, the ability to read and who and through whom one could speak to God. The king might have liked to control the amount of gold, containing the riches for themselves. Both motives may have played a part. I classify these lies and inversions as “Noble Lies”. They are lies designed by the ruling and elite class under the pretense of a necessity to temper and control society for society’s own good. In the Arhimonic deception, Stiener suggest that these lies are propagated by the economists and bankers. This seems to bear some truth when considering the 2030 Agenda of the World Economic Forum and their notorious slogan of “you will own nothing and be happy”. Was it these world economic elites that Steiner was referring to, seeing themselves as the source of the solution to maintain society?

Turning to a need to control religion, the cosmos and its movements formed a large part of belief systems across the world. Myths and gods were planets, elements and various forms of the planetary system of Earth. These became considered pagan beliefs in the promotion of Abrahamic religions (Jewish, Muslin, Islamic and Christian). Paganism did, however, merge with these religious systems, but was further divorced during the Crusades, particularly through the spreading of Christianity without any form of gnosis. The cosmos was a part of all cultural, spiritual beliefs and understanding, and ritual across all cultures. We divorced from its importance; we were separated from it. It was then inverted to keep us from its power. Rudolf Steiner makes this very clear in his talks about the Copernicus system, the separation of science and spirituality and the importance of reuniting them to help us reconnect with the spiritual path.

Hints that this knowledge was known

Independent researchers are not bound by large-scale funding or university politics. For this reason, they have been open to exploring and considering the age of man, the dating of ancient archaeological sites and all that we have been told. People gravitate to the story of Atlantis, an advanced society that was demolished by a flood, because it seems to explain advanced findings of buildings, structures and technology that are explained away in mainstream science. Mainstream science classifies every old structure as a tomb or a primitive ceremonial site, or both. Something inside of us knows that this is wrong and not the truth. People like Graham Hancock and Robert Temple, and others experience smear campaigns for sharing their findings and hypotheses. Graham Hancock has been called ‘dangerous’, and Robert Temple was hounded by the CIA for his work on Sirius. Simon Shack’s model has the disadvantage of being filled with figures, numbers and math, stuff that many avoid, and being clumped in with Flat Earth theories. But two things stand out in the past that point to the idea that this knowledge of our cosmos was at one time known.

In 1901, sponge divers found a shipwreck off the coast of Antikithera in the Greek islands. In and among the many amazing treasures was a device, caked with shells, but worth something; it has a tarnished green look, indicating copper. Over the last 120-plus years, researchers have pieced together just what this device was. It was discovered through high-tech scans that the device predicted the movement of the planets and stars. On the back, it had two moon dials. One shows the Metonic calendar, a 19-year solar-lunar calendar. The second one tracked the saros cycle of the moon - It was an eclipse predictor. On the front was a zodiacal dial with an outer dial depicting a moon calendar. The hands on the dial were the Sun, Moon and 5 planets. Amazingly, the scientists and researchers were able to see the gears, including the teeth that were used to generate the analogue computer. And they fit them together, making it work. And even though it worked, they had one gear left! A 63-toothed gear. For over a hundred years, it was studied, but recent technological advances have allowed further scans of the device, allowing researchers to know exactly how the mechanism worked. In the most recent re-creation, they were able to put together all of the gears to create a device that measured the moon calendar, solar calendar, lunar/ solar calendar, solar eclipses, and the movement of all planets, including retrogrades. They were able to tell when the device began calculating based on lunar information and what was written on the device, and knew that the device is 2000 years old. They were able to do this with exact accuracy. But the device, as is, is one month out of alignment. The exact number of days it would be out of alignment if precession were not taken into account. Interestingly, the Mayans had a gear in their calendar system that had 63 spokes.

The length of the processional cycle and the rate at which it moves have never been agreed upon. Interestingly, across the Atlantic Ocean in the Mayan peninsula, records of the Mayan calendar were found. While the records date to about the same time as Hipparchus in the western world, it is said that the knowledge goes back at least 5000 years. The Mayan calendar turns with interlocking cycles and counts. And, it was discovered in 2016 that the Mayans also had an interlocking cycle like a gear with 63 teeth. This ‘gear’ was said to play a part in a larger cycle of Venus and Saturn. These cycles are when Venus and Saturn turn directions. They likely play a part in predicting precession. Hipparchus in around 190-120 BCE, calculated the rate of precession to be about 1 degree per century with a full cycle of 36,000 years. Ptolemy in circa 100 - 170 CE, measured the stars again and confirmed Hipparchus’s rate. Arab astronomer Al-Battani in around 858 CE, calculated the precession of the equinoxes to be 54.5 arcseconds, which translates to one degree in approximately 66 years. In medieval times, most astronomers estimated 50 arcseconds, but Tycho Brahe and Longomontanus put the rate at 51 arcseconds. Somewhere in there is an average rate of precession. All of these rely on the idea that the Earth or the entire solar system is shifting against the backdrop of the stars. Researchers have been able to fit together a device depicting our solar system, but, like putting together Ikea furniture without the instructions, they still have one piece left. And it seems that the one feature missing from the Antikethera mechanism is precession, though it was known to them at the time. The device was made after Hipparchus espoused his ideas. It seems likely that the missing pieces would correct the 30-day error due to precession.

The Anitikethera mechanism replicates our solar system from Earth’s view and does a near-accurate job of it. In so doing, it uses epicycles. Epicycles were discarded during the Kepler-Copernican revolution, but were an important part of the model that Ptolemy outlined in his Almagest. Almagest was lost to the Christian world, but was reintroduced during medieval times. In the 12th Century, the text, which had survived in the Arabic world, was translated into Latin by Gerard of Cremona. His models were expanded upon in the Arabic world, and when reintroduced into the West, they were also expanded on by medieval astronomers like Copernicus, Kepler and Tycho Brahe. Incidentally, the epicycles of the planets are also what create most of our sacred geometry. If epicycles replicate the solar system in a device, how can the solar system operate in the way that Kepler suggests?

A second clue that the truth of our solar system is worldwide cultural myth. In 1969, the authors of Hamlet’s Mill put forward their theory that all myth served as a transmission of knowledge about the cosmos. While the authors suggest that all myth is cosmological, they focus on myth that transmits knowledge of the Great Year. This, they say, is depicted by a world mill, as the mill shows up in myths worldwide.

Incidentally, one of the myths and images in Hamlet’s Mill is of the Amritamanthana (or Churning of the Milky Ocean). It shows Mount Mandara used as a pivot or a churning stick, resting on a tortoise. The head on the right they described as having Typhonian features. The Typhon is associated with Set and the underworld in Egyptian mythology. The Myth lodges itself in the Hindu festival of the Kumbh Mela. A celebration that takes place in locations along the Ganges River every twelve years and has larger cycles within. The Kumabh Mela is where Swami Sri Yukteswar received the inspiration and guidance to write The Holy Science. In the Holy Science, Yukteswar outlines the movement of the solar system and says that the Sun completes a 24,000-year cycle, which he says occurs as the Sun with its dual, another star, moves to a center point in our universe. Here, he suggests that it is the sun that moves and that it has a partner, and the two of them complete the cycle in 24,000 years. This knowledge he attributes to the ancient orientals. This provides the third clue.

The knowledge seems to have been hidden in artifacts, myths and clues are suggested in writing and religious institutions. These and more will be explored further later on.

Kepler and all those behind the Copernican revolution have made us disoriented and lost. Once we understand we are lost, we can then ask questions and find our way. This allows us to open up enough to consider other perspectives and paradigms. In this openness, we can then see and understand the true model of the solar system, giving us an accurate map to follow in our soul’s growth.
