Afternoon of the Magicians

In the Whitley Streiber Gary Lachman interview I listened to yesterday, they mentioned the famous 1960 French book The Morning of the Magicians, by Louis Pauwels and Jacques Bergier. Today I randomly wondered whether anyone had ever written a book called The Afternoon of the Magicians. I mean, obviously someone must have, right? It's as inevitable a title as A Portrait of the Artist as an Old Man or A Farewell to Legs.

Google returned only one hit, a Russian site that didn't seem to be referring to a real book.

I switched to image search and got 13 results. Eight were for Time of the Magicians: Wittgenstein, Benjamin, Cassirer, Heidegger, and the Decade that Reinvented Philosophy by Wolfram Eilenberer. Two were for The Morning of the Magicians. Two were captioned The Morning of the Magicians but had photos of the cover of The Coming Race by Edward Bulwer-Lytton. The remaining one was this:


If you click the link, it goes to the Amazon page for The Morning of the Magicians. No idea how that picture got to be associated with that link.

The really weird thing is that I own an epub of that book, Weird Scenes Inside the Canyon (2104) by David McGowan, but have never read it and can't for the life of me remember the circumstances under which I learned of its existence and decided to download it.

William,
Trump, symbolic of Baal, the rider of the storm/cloud,
has returned in Autumn in DC
to build a Baal's Room.( Ballroom )
aka Baal's Palace.

The Doors were frequent guests in Laurel Canyon
and Jim Morrison and his girlfriend lived there.

Baal symbols are the Bull, ram and thunderbolts.
The Charging Bull is on Wall Street.
A thunderbolt could be symbolic of a missile.
A ram's Horn aka Shofar is blown at Jubilees and
at Shemitah.

Where's my Horn?
Interesting how my 2015 Where's My Horn
dream keeps returning back to this time.
I personally don't think it's a coincidence.

Baal was/is a mythological deity of :
fertility, weather, rain, wind, lightning, ****seasons,
******war, sailors.****

I believe that Trump is taking on the archetypal role
of Baal and building Baal's Room ( Baal's Palace) for the New Atlantis
and its new Triumvirate Government.

Partially destroying a historical building to build
a 90k square foot ballroom?
For what? when he's in Mar-a-Lago most of the time?

That dog don't hunt.

You would think that ballroom's are used in optimistic
and metaphorically 'Camelot' years, which
in America that time has come and gone.

IMHO, we are being played by the Magicians, who are master
manipulators of this illusion.

Trump's new ballroom will be bigger than the White House itself

William,
Part 1 of 2

In my comment above, I placed asterisks **
around wars and sailors,
 and thunderbolts
to highlight the reference to Baal being
a mythological deity of wars, sailors and
 thunderbolts but more importantly
why I believe Trump is playing the role of Baal
on the world stage.

Currently the Dept. of War is using thunderbolts ( missiles)
to bomb 'drug cartel boats' in the pacific.

Baal's connection to sailors also is interesting
as  it connects to the symbolism I found
after my 11/22/2018 Oscar Dream.

 Note the master
numbers 11/22 which 11/22/1963
was the date of JKF's assassination on the 33
degree parallel.
11/22 in 2018 was Thanksgiving in America.

Oscar of course in the International Maritime Signal
Flags meaning Man Overboard, which I've commented
about many many times.

Also Lo and behold a new Netflix movie released
Oct 24 titled  A House of Dynamite is very interesting
having Baal thunderbolt ( missile ) connections. ( see
link )
In the movie before the missiles are launched
the code given is:
  November Delta Oscar 1117.

You can imagine my shock when  I was
looking at this Netflix movie last night ( Oct 24 )
and heard that code which referenced many
of my puzzle pieces.

Delta meaning Dalet ( Door )
November ( the 11the month and the month
I had my Oscar dream in 2018 )
and of course Oscar meaning Man Overboard.
The number 1117 of course is very symbolic
as well. 7 meaning completion.

 Also Interesting the release of this movie.
Not only was the movie released in autumn
 which is the season of 'falling down'
   but also according to the Baal cycle,
 autumn is the time of Baal's return.
Baal is also the deity of 'seasons'.

But the most obvious clue is the movie's
plot of a Nuclear War. Baal also being
a deity of wars.

Also interesting in the movie is that the POTUS
is played by the Nigredo actor Idris Elba
 who is an OBE (Officer of the Most Excellent Order
 of the British Empire (OBE).
The surname Elba, could also read EL-Be
interchanging the vowel a to b.

Recall I shared with you a dream I had
in 2004 or so of a nosy next door neighbor whose name
was Juanta whom I knew in real life growing up.

  Juanta came to me in the dream and told me that
my mother wanted me to use the pen name EB in
my poetry.
Both Juantia and my mother Mary were in spirit
in 2004.
I don't ever recall dreaming of Juantia before the dream
 and I haven't since.

Regarding EB, supposedly, conspiracy theorists believe
that an EBE was found at Roswell
Copy and paste:
"E.B.E." (short for extraterrestrial biological entity)
is the seventeenth episode of the first season
of the American science fiction television series
The X-Files, premiering on the Fox network on February 18, 1994".

William
Part 2 
Note the 17 number ( 1117  ) and note the premier
date of the X -Files Feb 18, a day before my birthdate.

In the Netflix movie it is 'suggested' that the POTUS
is Obama as there is reference to basketball.
There's another Baal symbolism.

Also maybe you are aware that in the Obama administration
Obama added a basketball hoop to an existing
tennis court on the White House property.

Another interesting ball connection being planted
in our collective consciousness
is fraud and extortion allegations in the NBA.

Also on the big screen currently is the movie
by Jordan Peele titled HIM.
HIM, is about a footballer wanting to be a G.O.A.T.
 ( see link )
Which interestingly the ram is one of Baal's
symbolisms.

Also a small statue of Baal( housed at
the Louvre,)shows him with an elongated skull.
Recall my many comments about
the significance of the elongated skulls.

Note that Baal' is raising his right arm with
a clinched fist.
Looks familiar? ( see link of Trump's
right arm clinched fist which he does quite
frequently ).

It may seem to you as if I'm repeatedly
beating a dead horse, but I beg to differ.

When we are given signs from a paranormal
source it's Extremely important.
It's not to be taken lightly and like all
things hidden, its riddle is meant to be
deciphered and solved.
If it's not solved it becomes chaos.
