Well dear readers it has sure been quite some time since my last post here!
Hopefully you'll find this one to be worth the wait!
Since today is November 9, 2012 (11/9/12) and day #314 of the Gregorian Calendar with just 42 days remaining to 12/21/12, I thought this would be the perfect time to once again explore some mysteries!
For those readers not-so mathematically inclined I will do my best to explain and illustrate!
Today is 11/9, which the reverse of 9/11 - that fateful day in September 2001 when the Towers came down in New York.
More importantly, however, it is day number 314 of 2012. All the faithful readers will immediately recognize today is a PI day.
PI = 3.14
Even better:
In 2012 we have the infamous rollover of the Mayan Calendar to 13.0.0.0.0 (13 baktun).
Today is 42 days to that rollover - which occurs on 12/21/12.
42, covered extensively on this blog in past posts (just blog search for 42 and you'll find them), is also the expression of PI as: 3 x 14 = 42
Now I want to turn our attention to matters of the economy, or more specifically, the US Dollar.
(You can click the image above to view a larger version)
As any good symbologist knows, a good symbol is one that conveys more than a singular meaning.
And as we'll explore, we'll see that we certainly satisfy that in the various images that appear on the US Dollar bill!
But before we explore deeper we need to examine a little history first!
Wikipedia tells us:
The Great Seal of the United States is used to authenticate certain documents issued by the United States federal government. The phrase is used both for the physical seal itself (which is kept by the United States Secretary of State), and more generally for the design impressed upon it. The Great Seal was first used publicly in 1782.
The obverse of the great seal is used as the national coat of arms of the United States.[1] It is officially used on documents such as United States passports, military insignia, embassy placards, and various flags. As a coat of arms, the design has official colors; the physical Great Seal itself, as affixed to paper, is monochrome.
Since 1935, both sides of the Great Seal have appeared on the reverse of the one-dollar bill. The Seal of the President of the United States is directly based on the Great Seal, and its elements are used in numerous government agency and state seals.
That Wikipedia page also tells us that it took 3 committees to create the set of Seals which were finalized in 1782 and that we today see on the US Dollar bill.
As with the previous two committees, most of the work was delegated to a heraldic expert, this time 28-year-old William Barton.
Barton drew a design very quickly, using a rooster on the crest, but it was much too complex. No drawing of this design seems to have survived.
Barton then came up with another design, which the committee submitted back to Congress on May 9, 1782, just five days after being formed. This time, the figures on each side of the shield were the "Genius of the American Confederated Republic" represented by a maiden, and on the other side an American warrior. At the top is an eagle and on the pillar in the shield is a "Phoenix in Flames". The mottos were "In Vindiciam Libertatis" (In Defense of Liberty) and "Virtus sola invicta" (Only virtue unconquered).
For the reverse, Barton used a pyramid of thirteen steps, with the radiant Eye of Providence overhead, and used the mottos "Deo Favente" (With God's Favor, or more literally, God Favoring) and "Perennis" (Everlasting).[23] The pyramid had come from another Continental currency note designed in 1778 by Hopkinson, this time the $50 note, which had a nearly identical pyramid and the motto "Perennis". Barton had at first specified "on the Summit of it a Palm Tree, proper", with the explanation that "The Palm Tree, when burnt down to the very Root, naturally rises fairer than ever", but later crossed it out and replaced it with the Eye of Providence, taken from the first committee's design.
Congress again took no action on the submitted design.
On June 13, 1782, the Congress turned to its Secretary Charles Thomson, and provided all material submitted by the first three committees.[8] Thomson was 53 years old, and had been a Latin master at a Philadelphia academy.[25] Thomson took elements from all three previous committees, coming up with a new design which provided the basis for the final seal.
Thomson used the eagle – this time specifying an American bald eagle – as the sole supporter on the shield. The shield had thirteen stripes, this time in a chevron pattern, and the eagle's claws held an olive branch and a bundle of thirteen arrows. For the crest, he used Hopkinson's constellation of thirteen stars. The motto was E Pluribus Unum, taken from the first committee, and was on a scroll held in the eagle's beak.
An eagle holding symbols of war and peace has a long history, and also echoed the second committee's themes. Franklin owned a 1702 emblem book, which included an eagle with olive branch and arrows near its talons, which may have been a source for Thomson. The arrows also mirror those in the arms of the Dutch Republic, the only country in Europe with a representative government at the time, which depicted a lion holding seven arrows representing their seven provinces. State currency may have provided further inspiration; a 1775 South Carolina bill showed a bundle of 13 arrows and a 1775 Maryland note depicted a hand with an olive branch of 13 leaves.
For the reverse, Thomson essentially kept Barton's design, but re-added the triangle around the Eye of Providence and changed the mottos to Annuit Cœptis and Novus Ordo Seclorum.[25] Thomson sent his designs back to Barton, who made some final alterations. The stripes on the shield were changed again, this time to "palewise" (vertical), and the eagle's wing position was changed to "displayed" (wingtips up) instead of "rising". Barton also wrote a more properly heraldic blazon.
The design was submitted to Congress on June 20, 1782 and was accepted the same day. Thomson included a page of explanatory notes, but no drawing was submitted. This remains the official definition of the Great Seal today.
The first brass die was cut sometime between June and September, and placed in the State House in Philadelphia. It was first used by Thomson on September 16, 1782, to verify signatures on a document which authorized George Washington to negotiate an exchange of prisoners.
Charles Thomson, as the Secretary of Congress, remained the keeper of the seal until the Federal government was formed in 1789. On July 24, 1789, President Washington asked Thomson to deliver the seal to the Department of Foreign Affairs in the person of Roger Alden, who kept it until the Department of State was created.[26] All subsequent Secretaries of State have been responsible for applying the Seal to diplomatic documents.
On September 15, 1789, the United States Congress ordered "that the seal heretofore used by the United States in Congress assembled, shall be, and hereby is declared to be, the seal of the United States."
Sounds all fine and dandy, but does it have even more meaning that's not written in the official account??
Knowing what I know about the Mayan Calendar, I recognized something behind the design. Something NOT written in the official account.
I was first struck by the odd inclusion of a Mayan Pyramid in the Hopkinson (1778) design!
(Francis Hopkinson's 1778 Mayan Step Pyramid)
Why would a MAYAN PYRAMID appear on a seal for the United States?
The Phoenix / Bald Eagle I can easily accept, but a Mayan Pyramid?
No Mayan Pyramids were known to exist in the 1776 United States!
Why include such an image after so many years of painstaking review by committees and congress?
Could it be included to indicate or hint at something else?!
Perhaps the hidden meaning will become clearer if we look to the US Capitol - The streets of Washington DC??
Hmmm... We see that same Pentagram and Compasses appearing in both images!
How Strange!
But not-so-much when we learn that many of the founding fathers of the USA were in fact MASONs!
The Mayan Pyramid seal even identifies its MASONic origins with the phrase NOVUS ORDO SECLORUM. A quick scribble of the pentagram (Eastern Star/ Star of the East) that appears in the Washington DC street map and voila! The Word MASON is revealed to us.
Fascinating! But documented MANY times throughout history by conspiracy-theorists and historians alike!
Is there Something Else to it?
To explore that we need the roman numerals appearing at the bottom of the pyramid and the 13 levels of masonry in the pyramid design.
BUT... we notice that the design is drawn in such a way to indicate its 3-dimensionality.
We note that there's 13 levels in the main design and 4 sides to the pyramid.
13 and 4 appearing in a pyramid within a circle?!
3.14, as we know, is PI. A very inportant value to calculating a circle!
Are those early Masons leading us somewhere with their symbols?!
We note that there's a YEAR appearing in Roman numerals...
the year 1776, via the MDCCLXXVI which is inscribed ON the bottom level of the Mayan pyramid. An odd placement for sure!
So we make a mental note that the pyramid is conveying a DATE with the 1776!
We note that 4 sides of the pyramid each of 13 levels makes for "52".
4 x 13 = 52
How odd that a date should appear on a pyramid of 52?
52 is the number of weeks (sets of 7 days) that we have in our gregorian calendar year.
52 x 7 = 364!
So now we have two devices in the painstainkingly crafted symbol that are indicating date to the observer!
Along with PI (3.14) which we know to be associated with the Circle (aka the CYCLE).
As a CYCLE we note that the MAYAN GREAT CYCLE is 5200 tuns!
Could this be a hit? It certainly fits with the crafting of the design!
So we explore further...
13 and 52 are key numbers in the Mayan calendar systems.
In the Mayan Great Cycle, there are 13 baktuns of 20 katuns each. Each katun consists of 20 tuns or 19.7 Years of our modern western calendar years. So, we see, there are 5200 tuns in the Great Cycle!
20 x 20 = 400 (x 13) = 5200
20 tuns x 20 katuns x 13 baktuns = 5200
Here we realize we've hit paydirt! A MAYAN pyramid being used to intentionally convey "52" and we see that same 52 in the 5200 of the Mayan Great Cycle!
Maybe it's just a strange coincidence, you say?
Perhaps NOT! Seeing as we note that the both the Aztec calendar and Cortez appear in the US Capital Rotunda! Again leading us below the southern border of the USA - to land of the Maya!
So let's explore some math (Uggh!)...
13 levels x 19.7 years = 256.1 years
Here we note again that 1776 on the bottom blocks of the Mayan Pyramid!
1776, however, is not the beginning of the bottom blocks but is actually the end date of the bottom blocks
To find our beginning we subtract 19.7 years from 1776...
1776 - 19.7 = 1756.3
Now we have a start year to work from... 1756.
1756.3 + 19.7 years lands us right on the noted in roman numeral date of 1776.
But what happens if we assume the same 19.7 years for every level of the 13 levels of the Mayan Pyramid??
we see that 1756.3 + 256.1 years = 2012.4
We just found the WOW signal!
We know, from many many other mathematicians and historians that the mayan calendar rolls over to Baktun 13 on December 21st, 2012!
A baktun (properly b'ak'tun) is 20 katun cycles of the ancient Maya Long Count Calendar. It contains 144000 days, equal to 394.26 tropical years
13 x 20 = 256
2012 - 256 = 1756
5125 years (3114 BC to 2012)
For those requiring exactitude in their calculations...
The actual corresponding METONIC period of each of the levels of the pyramid is 19.713 tropical years.
Most of the Maya calendar intervals accumulate as multiples of 20. An interval of 7,200 days (360 × 20) was known as a katun. It takes 20 katuns to complete a baktun (20 × 7,200 = 144,000 days). Although some ancient inscriptions turn 13 baktuns into
an important reset milestone, others imply that the calendar simply keeps running.
For instance, it takes 20 baktuns to make a pictun.
It is important we note that "72" of the 7200 in the above explanation!
72 degrees is the number of degrees between the arms of a perfectly formed PENTAGRAM (or 5 armed star).
We note:
There are 144000 days per baktun
13 baktuns = 13 x 144000 days = 1,872,000 days
360 x 20 = 7200 days
It takes 20 katuns to complete a baktun
(20 × 7,200 = 144,000 days)
I think this is the perfect time to note...
"Novus Ordo Seclorum" acronyms to NOS or "SON", in reverse, and the hexagram (aka Star of DaViD) and the pentagram too both reveal the word "M.A.S.O.N"
And a good time to note that...
the complete 13 baktun "Great Cycle" is 260 katuns (of 19.713 years for 1,872,000 days) making our starting "1756 katun" Katun # 247.
3114 BC + 1756 AD = 4870 years
4870 / 19.713 = 247.045 katuns
August 11, 3114 BC is the date given by many many scholars as the Start Date of the Mayan Calendar.
I note it as 8/11/3114 BC. The Year containing within a reference to PI in the 3114. as being made up of the digits 3,1,4
So back to the exploration!
Today November 9, 2012 (11/9/12) aka Mayan Long Count 12.19.19.15.18.
It is 42 days (3x14) to the infamous 13.0.0.0.0 (13 Baktun) rollover of the Mayan Calendar which occurs on December 21, 2012 (12/21/12).
and by our math and careful observation we see that the Mayan Pyramid of the Great Seal (Great Circle/ Great Cycle) also encodes the same information about 13 baktun.
Beginning in the year 1756, with 1776 completing the first level of the 13 levels, we see that, with each level being 19.713 years...
We arrive precisely at December 21, 2012 at the end of the 13th level
The EYE (5,25,5 in simple gematria) of Providence floating abov its peak (13th level) conveying the 14th level (7x2) and beyond!

UPDATE (2012-11-11):
PI in the BIBLE and the Mayan 144,000...
Revelation 14 verse 3
3 And they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four beasts, and the elders: and no man could learn that song but the hundred and forty and four thousand, which were redeemed from the earth.
Chapter 14 verse 3 again we find the digits of PI (3.14)
Revelation 14 verse 1
King James Version (KJV)
14 And I looked, and, lo, a Lamb stood on the mount Sion, and with him an hundred forty and four thousand, having his Father's name written in their foreheads.
In the image above (and the one below) I have "stood" the greek alphabet character "LAMBDA" on the pyramid / Mount SION.
In this image we see that line A-B of the pentagram indicates 144 degrees of the circle.
There are 72 degrees between point C and point D.
Refer back to the 144,000 and the 7200 in the article above!
An interval of 7,200 days (360 × 20) was known as a katun. It takes 20 katuns to complete a baktun (20 × 7,200 = 144,000 days).
It is important we note that "72" of the 7200 in the above explanation!
72 degrees is the number of degrees between the arms of a perfectly formed PENTAGRAM (or 5 armed star).
