April FOOLS: Christ's Birth and the Hidden New Year 🧵

To many ancient cultures, April 1st is considered the actual NEW YEAR.

Is April 1st called April Fool's Day because the Profane are foolish for not realizing the TRUE NEW YEAR?

It is said Christ was born April 3rd, 33 BC. Image
It would make sense the calender began the Day of Christ's Birth.

Was Christ's Birth actually April (Nisan) 1st but got moved to the Third over the Aeons?

Are we FOOLS for not knowing Christ's Real Birthday? Was the Gregorian Calendar purposefully designed to mock the Profane? Image
JOHN 1:29 states, "Behold the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world"

Christ is symbolized by the Mystical Lamb. The Lamb is the Sign of Aries; which for the ancients began the New Year. The SUN comes back, crops grow again and the Lamb takes away the SIN of the WORLD. Image

METEMPSYCHOSIS: Transmigration of Souls 🧵

Death is the great mystery, the eternal question. In this LIFE, ONLY DEATH is guaranteed. The Body may perish but is the soul ETERNAL? Is DEATH simply another awakening?

Let's discuss Reincarnation.Image
Metempsychosis (or REINCARNATION) is a doctrine made popular by Pythagoras. This doctrine states the preexistence of the human soul before union with matter but also, after death, a return to life on earth in a different body, perhaps through several successive reincarnations. Image
Others believe that Pythagoras took up the idea of reincarnation from the Orphic Doctrine. Orpheus is said to have taught that the immortal soul aspires to freedom while the body holds it prisoner. The wheel of birth revolves, the soul alternates between freedom and captivity. Image

Freemasonry, Infiltration and the Hidden Hand: A Conspiracy of Control? 🧵

In 1781, English General George Cornwallis surrendered to George Washington and soon after predicted the Fate of the New World. Image
Cornwallis stated, “Your churches will be used to teach the Jew’s religion and in less than two hundred years, the whole nation will work for a Divine Government. That government they believe to be divine will be the British Empire." Image
It's not a mystery prominent Freemasons helped to establish the United States.

In 1793, George Washington, proudly wearing his masonic apron, laid the cornerstone of the New Atlantis under the Eye of Provience.

But, has Masonry been used as a TOOL for another group's agenda? Image

Aronofsky's Pi 🧵

In 1999, Darren Aronofsky released his debut classic 'Pi'. Pi was inspired by Aronofsky's backpacking trip to Israel. During his trip, Aronofsky wound up at the Western Wall, where he was introduced to the Kabbalah, hoping to turn him 'away from Satan'.
Aronofksy continues, “For me it didn’t quite work, because the devil has some nice toys. But, I did come away with some nice stories and some good ideas. That was the seed for a lot of the Kabbalah stuff in the film.” Image
