Yo, it’s been a minute! I am currently experimenting with Substack as a viable alternative to WordPress so we’ll see how it all turns out. I do plan on publishing articles that I never got around to finishing from my other blog and uploading them here as a premium service for subscribers. My newest book “The Laurel Turns Green” is actually out now in ebook and hardcover formats. The book will be a compendium or collection of assorted essays that I wrote throughout the years on my The Aeon Eye blog. Here is the blurb:
The Laurel Turns Green refers to a prophecy made by a Cathar priest before he was burnt at the stake by the Catholic Inquisition—about him and his Cathar brethren returning somehow to a future world. That future is now.
This compendium of essays is named after this prophecy. Join the author Alex Rivera, on his journey of unveiling. These essays were originally published on his website, TheAeonEye, and other publications. Here, you will find many subjects tackled such as the Orphic mysteries, the Hermetic philosophies of the Corpus Hermeticum, Middle and Neo-Platonism, the complex histories of miracle workers such as Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Simon the Magician, Apollonius, Iamblichus, and more.
Finally, I also tackle the hidden mysteries of the ancient Prometheus/Light-Bearer archetype and the unveiling of Kabbalistic Hollywood ritual programming embedded in the 2017 film Mother! The hidden is now manifest.
I must say that this project has been the most requested one I received through my site because of the articles that were taken offline. However, I dusted them off and repurposed them for official publication. The Laurel Turns Green represents a culmination of nearly a decade of research, now available for purchase for the first time!

13. About the Author
As pointed out in my article 222 The Number of Destiny, this year 2022 corresponds to the cosmic judgment and the Hermetic bowl of Mind Wisdom, along with the Bowls of Wrath found in Revelation. Considering recent events with the passing of the Queen of England, this is perhaps a signal of more significant changes in the multiverse of madness. A couple of months ago, Hurricane Ian obliterated parts of Florida (where I am), and I can’t help but think it’s all related to what I wrote in an article I wrote called Cathar Prophecies, Lion Gates, and the Age of Wormwood.
In it, I discussed how the “age” we’ve entered now is yes, the Age of Aquarius, which is also analogous to the Age of the Star, the “Aeon of Horus” and finally, the Age of Wormwood—all of which black magicians like Aleister Crowley helped usher in. Back in September, I was on Camron Wiltshire’s Sacred Geometry International Podcast (click on the link of the podcast name) and we discussed my work related to the late, great Tracy Twyman. We went over Hammer-Purgstall’s Templar monuments uncovered by Ms. Tracy Twyman, and how they relate to dark, Qabalistic initiation rites—much of which is passed on through various secret societies throughout the ages.
Furthermore, we delved into the Mithraic Mysteries and the figure of the Leontocephaline also known as the Mithraic Lion connects to the “Lion Gates” of August, and sure enough, the beast manifested in the waters of the gulf. In the same interview, I noted how my research into the Qabalah is strangely mirrored in daily reality. A few months before Queen Elizabeth II died, she was seen in a public and televised “activation” of the “Ladder of Lights” Qababistic ritual. Also, Alex Jones came out a few weeks ago going off about the globalists and suddenly started ranting about the Qabalistic Tree of Death and the Tree of Life.
So naturally, these are just some of the strange synchronicities associated with not just the passing of the Queen of England. All of this happened right before the massive Saturnian ritual that occurred in the Mexican gulf. Prince Charles will become crowned king by default through the Queen’s death, he went through sacred ceremonies that involve being anointed with oil from the Holy Land, much like his illustrious predecessors. All of this takes place under a canopy placed over the King’s head so that the public cannot see the actual moment of anointing. When the oil is poured, supposedly, the Holy Spirit enters the regent’s body and is transformed into a divine being, as if the monarch becomes another person.
This next coronation, however, is even more special, because it will occur on top of a mosaic called the “Cosmati Pavement:” representing the exact center of the cosmos, and the end of time. That mosaic was created in 1268 by the command of King Henry III, but it has not been seen at the coronation for quite some time. It has only recently been rediscovered, as it was hiding under a carpet this entire time. This “sacred space” is now being used to restore this sacred and monarchial rite with the next king to initiate his reign by having the honor of standing upon it, as the “Holy Spirit” enters him.
To some extent, all monarchs embody the Saturnian archetype of the original “Lord of the Earth” upon which their title and role are based. King Saturn/Chronos, as the “Rex Mundi” was viewed by the ancients like the Cathars as the original “Melchizedek”. Jupiter is strongly associated with Melchizedek as well, through the word “Zedek”. In any case, this divine king was seen as playing a pivotal role as a central “conduit” between Heaven and Earth—upon which the universe rotates around.
As a side note, interestingly, the official coronation anthem for a British monarch is called “Zadok the Priest” written by Handel in 1727, as commissioned by King George I as one of his last acts. Zadok is named after the priests of Israel, who anointed their monarchs in the image of Melchizedek. In the article Who Assumed Melchizedek’s Priesthood? by Joshua Garroway, he connects Zadok with Melchizedek.
Melchizedek, the hoary king of Salem—that is, Jerusalem—blesses the patriarch whose descendent, David, will one day make that city his capital.
Others say it is David’s priest, Zadok, who finds legitimation through Melchizedek.[5] On this reading, Zadok was the Jebusite cult leader in Jerusalem whom David, following his conquest of the city, appointed over the Israelite cult. A biblical editor foreshadows David’s endorsement of a non-Israelite priest by showing Abraham pay a tithe to a non-Israelite priest, Melchizedek, who presides over a cult in (Jeru)salem dedicated to “God, the Most High” (Gen. 14:18).
Through his power, heaven and earth were separated from collapsing into one, thus annihilating the universe—an idea present in medieval Kabbalistic literature like the demonic-centric Treatise on the Left Emanation. Saturn’s primordial throne served as an axis Mundi point where both heaven and earth can exist simultaneously. At the same time, these two worlds were also thought to be kept separate by the polar throne—which was viewed by the ancients as keeping heaven from collapsing into the earth—thus annihilating the created world. The seat of his power is where both worlds existed simultaneously. This is how King Chronos/Saturn, the god of time, was viewed back then. The monarchs of every civilization modeled themselves from this same symbolism. Saturn primarily operates in the Sephiroth of Binah on the Tree of Life.
The Cosmati Pavement at Westminster Abbey was created to represent all of these ideas. A Latin inscription around the perimeter of the work states: “The spherical globe here shows the archetypal macrocosm.”
There is a riddle in the tiles pertaining to the end of time, which helps to calculate the final date. The Latin inscription gives clues. Here are those clues, as translated by John Flete (from the official Westminster Abbey website):
“In the year of Christ one thousand two hundred and twelve plus sixty minus four, the third King Henry, the city, Odoricus and the abbot put these porphyry stones together. If the reader wisely considers all that is laid down, he will find here the end of the primum mobile; a hedge (lives for) three years, add dogs and horses and men, stags and ravens, eagles, enormous whales, the world: each one following triples the years of the one before.”
The meaning of this has already been worked out by Richard Sporley, a monk who resided at Westminster in the Middle Ages. He wrote:
The ‘primum’ mobile means this world, whose age or ending the writer estimates, as he imagines it, by increasing the numbers three-fold.
The most interesting item in the inscription, here translated as “enormous whales,” sounds a lot like “sea serpents” or dragons. The Leviathan of the Hebrews, and Tiamat of the Sumerians, were viewed as representations of the primordial chaos that had existed before the universe, and in fact, gave birth to it. One day, the Ouroboros dragon would one day swallow it again (or in essence swallow itself in a type of loop situation).
In the meantime, a monarch must always reign on the throne of the Lord of the Earth. By bearing the weight of the “premium mobile” on his own shoulders, he prevents chaos from overtaking the earth and postpones the day of judgment.
St. George, although, was not considered a monarch per se, is a central figure in English royalty because of his ability to heal and fend off the chaos from consuming their kingdom. He is often compared to other saints like Michael the Archangel, who also happens to rule over Hod and Tiphereth on the Qabalistic or Hermetic Tree of Life.
Following the inscription, when you add up the mythical ages of all the animals given, including the man and the sea serpent, then multiply them by three as the inscription tells you to, you get 19,683. It is uncertain what exactly the beginning date would be. Perhaps 19,683 is the date the world will end? This is highly doubtful since I believe the world and universal cycles are pretty close to being eternal. But who knows?
What is certain, however, is that the crowning of King Charles in 2023 will be very interesting indeed, with certain apocalyptic overtones to it. The Stone of Prophecy is also related to this since these royal British rites are taken directly from Judaism—more specifically from the coronation rites of King David and King Solomon.
This special stone is also related to Jacob’s dream during his journey from the Negev to Haran in northern Mesopotamia as we read in Genesis 28. We’ve heard the term “Jacob’s ladder,” but the underlying Hebrew word reveals that what he saw was more likely a ziggurat—the ancient Mesopotamian pyramid that represented a stairway to heaven. This is where Bethel, the “House (or Temple) of God,” is built.
Later in Genesis 31, Jacob’s uncle Laban deceives him into taking his eldest daughter, Leah, as his wife in exchange for seven years of labor. To marry his younger daughter Rachel, Laban demands another seven years’ work—and then tries to keep Jacob even longer because he realizes (through divination, a forbidden practice) that he’s being blessed by God through Jacob. In the article Jacob’s Pillow Stone—The Prophetic “Stone of Destiny” the author goes on to explain more about this magical stone:
…the stone was delivered to the Isles by Jeremiah the prophet when he brought King Zedekiah’s daughter, Tephi, to Ireland to marry into the Judah-Zarahite royal line. The stone was subsequently relocated to Scotland, where it was used in the coronation of Scottish kings. Finally, it was moved in 1296 AD to Westminster Abbey in London. There, King Edward I had a special “coronation chair” built around the stone. Every king or queen of Britain has since been crowned in that chair.
Until the late 1950s, there was a plate attached to the chair near the stone with the inscription “Jacob’s Pillar Stone”—an obvious reference to Genesis 28:18. In 1996, the stone was returned, by request, to Scotland, where it is presently stored in Edinburgh Castle. The coronation stone will be returned to Westminster Abbey upon the crowning of the next monarch of Great Britain.
The stone measures about 26 inches long, 16 inches wide, and 10 inches thick. Its battered surface is marked by a crack running lengthwise. Iron rings are attached to each end through which a pole can be inserted to transport the stone (this was the common manner in which the tabernacle furnishings were carried; see Exodus 25; etc.).
There is also a strong Mithraic tone to this whole story. Mithras is also strongly related to Saturn, as well. In the article Io! Saturnalia: Synchronos Returns, I wrote in-depth about the height of King Chronos’s rule and how he is still worshiped to this day. Saturnalia is coming up.
Why is any of this relevant? Well, Hurricane Ian, as it turns out has many Saturnian synchronicities. When Ian reached the sores of Florida it was the 27th day of the month, and 27 is a big ritual sacrifice number. See the 27 club. 27 is also heavily synced to Saturn. Saturn also happened to be the night ruler for Tuesday. So in essence, Saturn rules the 3rd night of the week, since Tuesday is the 3rd day. So in other words, he rules both the 3rd night and the 7th day of every week. 3’s and 7’s are important numbers to Saturn. Another interesting 27th sync is that Florida was also the 27th state admitted to the Union. So that’s three 27 syncs: it became major news on the 27th day of the month, and it made landfall in the 27th state in Tampa on the 27th parallel! Here’s a nifty hymn to Chronos found in the Hymns of Orpheus, if ever faced with imminent destruction:
ETHERIAL father, mighty Titan, hear, 1
Great fire of Gods and men, whom all revere:
Endu'd with various council, pure and strong,
To whom perfection and decrease belong.
Consum’d by thee all forms that hourly die, 5
By thee restor’d, their former place supply;
The world immense in everlasting chains,
Strong and ineffable thy pow’r contains
Father of vast eternity, divine,
O mighty Saturn, various speech is thine: 10
Blossom of earth and of the starry skies,
Husband of Rhea, and Prometheus wife.Obstetric Nature, venerable root,
From which the various forms of being shoot;
No parts peculiar can thy pow'r enclose, 15
Diffus’d thro’ all, from which the world arose,
O, best of beings, of a subtle mind,
Propitious hear to holy pray'rs inclin’d;
The sacred rites benevolent attend,
And grant a blameless life, a blessed end.
As a side note, Manly P. Hall in The Secret Teachings of All Ages (p. 97) writes how the human race was actually the spawn of the Titan Saturn:
In the language of the Mysteries, the spirits of men are the powdered bones of Saturn. The latter deity was always worshiped under the symbol of the base or footing, inasmuch as he was considered to be the substructure upholding creation. The myth of Saturn has its historical basis in the fragmentary records preserved by the early Greeks and Phœnicians concerning a king by that name who ruled over the ancient continent of Hyperborea. Polaris, Hyperborea, and Atlantis, because they lie buried beneath the continents and oceans of the modern world, have frequently been symbolized as rocks supporting upon their broad surfaces new lands, races, and empires. According to the Scandinavian Mysteries, the stones and cliffs were formed from the bones of Ymir, the primordial giant of the seething clay, while to the Hellenic mystics the rocks were the bones of the Great Mother, Gæa.
Speaking of everything collapsing, Toumas Malinen in his article “The coming collapse of “everything” as the title says, claims exactly that—the complete destruction and even rebirth of the financial system as we know it now. I also can’t help but think it’s connected to the prophecy of the return of King Chronos and his kingdom on earth. There are also rumors of a formation of a so-called “One World Religion” being circulated online just as this Saturnian coronation is set to happen next year as well in the form of “Chrislam”—a perverse fusion of Catholicism and Islam. Both religions have ties to Saturn. Such globalist dreams remind me of what occurs in alchemy—specifically with “The One Thing” as we see in the Tabula Smaragdina or the Emerald Tablets. On the subject of Hermes’s Tablets, I also go in-depth in my newest book The Laurel Turns Green.
Finally, what’s up with the Sun lately? Earlier this year, all over Twitter, there were numerous videos being uploaded about the Sun pulsating in Morse code. What does it all mean? I think it’s a signal that perhaps the world simulation is breaking down. After all, a man dressed in a Baphomet costume has literally taken over Twitter.
Elon Musk has also publically stated in the past that he thinks the odds of our reality being a simulation is 1 billion to one in favor of it. He was also a big part of a 2016 article published in The Atlantic Monthly, about a group of “tech billionaires” who are also convinced that reality is fake, and are secretly funding projects to find a way out of it. This article was called Tech Billionaires Want to Destroy the Universe. There, you will find what these people are really about.
