In The Top Tens, Top 10 Greatest Unexplained Mysteries of All Time – of which there are currently 64 listings, one of the most tragic and shocking events of the twentieth century – the assassination of the 35th American president John F Kennedy – is ranked number 27 (registered from the votes of a mere 0.6% of readers).

Yet, it is an intriguing and infuriating component of this mystery which is ranked as the 2nd yes 2nd, greatest unexplained mystery of all time as voted by 9% of readers.

Number 1, being Jack the Ripper (10%) – refer article: Jack the Ripper.

The fact this mystery is nearly sixty-three years old – and candidly, unlikely to ever be solved – yet still grips the public’s fascination to such a high degree is remarkable. The reason for this undying and inordinate fascination will be investigated in this article.

While Kennedy’s tragic murder is clearly central to the discussion, it is not the prime focus here; providing rather a necessary albeit brief background to instead a mysterious woman known as:

The Babushka Lady

The Babushka Lady is an unidentified woman who was present and uniquely situated during the presidential assassination at 12.30 pm on November 22, 1963 – Article: 33.

She is believed to have possibly photographed (probably filmed) the exact moments Kennedy was critically shot at Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas. Her nickname derives from the headscarf she wore, resembling those worn by elderly Russian women – babushka meaning ‘grandmother’ or ‘old woman’ in Russian.

Categorised as a key witness, law enforcement agencies have never located her or potentially, the most valuable footage of the assassination.

The Babushka lady (aka: Babushka, Babushka 1 or B1)

Appearance and Clothing:

The Babushka Lady was dressed in a tan* or light brown,** ‘knee’ length overcoat. Which conveniently covered not only the clothes underneath but also her shape and body type. Importantly though as we shall focus, not her calves.

A number of photos (stills) reveal a woman wearing a coat just above* the knee (B1); while another woman is observed in different photos wearing a slightly darker coat just below** the knee (B2b).

Babushka 2b

Similarly, the Babushka Lady wore a headscarf tied under her chin – as do (confusingly) her seeming doppelgängers on the day. The scarf conveniently assisted in predominantly masking the Babushka Lady’s hair and facial features.

Added to this, eyewitnesses noted that she ‘may have also worn sunglasses’.

Though we will discover this seems to apply to a look alike (B2a) and not the Babushka Lady.

She looked quite simply ordinary, not dramatic or theatrical but merely blending in without bringing attention to herself with bright colours or latest fashion. Note the lady near her – which we will repeatedly witness – in the bright red dress (second photo above).

The montage (above) clearly delineates between Babushka (B1) in the upper left image and Babushka 2b in the upper middle still.

The length of their overcoats are different and as subsequent photos will show, the overcoat worn by Babushka 2b hangs more loosely (open), not seemingly pulled in at the waist as is evident on Babushka 1.

Babushka 2b with a camera and situated on the right hand side of the road where President Kennedy would be driven.

Babushka 2b looks shorter and plumper with thicker calves – and perhaps a little pigeon-toed – compared with Babushka 1.

The shoes worn by Babushka 2b are dark and flat. While we do not get a clear sighting of Babushka’s (B1) shoes, they do not appear to stand out as being a dark coloured material.

Babushka 2b exhibits calves which do not have socks or tights. From her foot and ankle to the hem of her coat (beneath her knee), her legs are bare. Whereas Babushka (B1) is wearing something(?) of a light colour which ends beneath her knees and then a darker shade of something(?) else is visible from the top of her calves (just below the knee) to the hem of her coat which is above the knees.

In the still above, note Babushka’s solid stance while filming – as it turned out – the critical shot fired that took John F Kennedy’s life. Her close and clear view of the cavalcade while positioned on the left hand side of Elm Street: happened from chance or by design?

Further photos will confirm that Babushka’s (B1) scarf hangs lower than the one worn by Babushka 2b.

Certain footage shows a woman wearing pale blue trousers or perhaps even blue jeans. Jeans were slowly coming into fashion for women in America during the early 1960’s but were still not yet common amongst the female populace. Yet a Babushka look alike (B4) is wearing them underneath her overcoat.

Dealey Plaza during the 1960’s

Behavior and Actions

Babushka’s appearance coupled with the fact she was seen (and photographed) holding a camera of some type are not suspicious of themselves. But add these details to the woman remaining absolutely preternaturally still – the exact opposite to those around her who were instinctually panicking in the split seconds after the gunfire began and the tirade of fired shots ominously rang out and therefore turning away, dropping to the ground or running (and screaming) – creates obvious questions.

This exhibition of such a calm demeanour is eerily notable because she continued to keep her camera raised, filming (or photographing) the motor cavalcade during the whole duration of the horrifying history that tore violently open before her.

A Woman I Know:

‘Was the Babushka Lady completely overlooked for sixty years because she was a woman? She was [a mere] 33 feet away from the President aiming her camera at him when he was shot in the head, yet, unlike Abraham Zapruder, no mad dash ensued to locate her or her precious footage [Article: 33].

Mary Haverstick takes a much closer and less forgiving look at the Babushka’s movements on Dealey Plaza, including a thorough exploration of the possibility that the Babushka may have been central to the crime.’

‘This footage, originally filmed by Marie Muchmore and stabilized by Mary Haverstick, gives us the best view of Babushka’s movements during the fatal strike.

Notice how she prematurely [swivelled] her view away from Kennedy and Jackie’s faces in order to set up a [clear] shot of the back of Kennedy’s head as he moved away from her.’

By adopting the adjusted stance, the Babushka Lady (B1) had a perfect angle to capture the bullet hitting Kennedy in the head (evidenced by the white plume upon impact, though the frame in question has been deleted from the Zapruder film available to the public) which had come from the direction of the grassy knoll.

Sightings and Evidence

The Babushka Lady is visible in several film footages, including the immensely significant Zapruder film and in various photographs taken by others present that day. She (B1) was positioned perfectly on the grass between Elm and Main streets.

This then raises an intriguing question as the collection of photos and stills reveal four different women – as intimated earlier – yet each are labelled as the Babushka Lady.

For the purpose of this investigation the woman caught in Marie Muchmore’s film is considered the Babushka and others have been given numbers – as already delineated. Thus confirming that this Babushka (B1) is the original and primary person (suspect) of interest.

President Kennedy and the first lady at Love Field Airport in Dallas the morning of their fateful day with destiny. Unbeknown to Jack and Jacqueline, their happiness and lives together were to be tragically cut short a few hours later.

A Woman I Know:

‘Abraham Zapruder panned quickly by the Babushka Lady as he followed the President’s limousine with his camera. In this modified Zapruder clip, the section capturing the Babushka is stabilized and slowed down to better scrutinize her movements.’

https://vimeo.com/877222412?fl=pl&fe=cm

‘Babushka’s appearance* in the Zapruder film is brief, but he did manage to capture her pivot as she re-positioned her aim for a shot of the President as he drifted away from her.’

This still is the infamous frame number 313 from the (edited) Zapruder film. It captures the moment just after Kennedy’s fateful head wound, where the initial white spray of brain matter has become red with the addition of spurting blood.

The Babushka Lady (B1) is to the left of the lady in red, back and behind, slightly offset from two or three other people. She is not visible in frame 313 but is briefly in the frames* preceding as shown in the Zapruder film.

Thus Babushka as explained had an advantageous position to film in more detail and perhaps longer for example than Marie Muchmore.

The woman in the top of frame 313 is Babushka 4. Note the ‘jeans’ and similar coloured overcoat and a dark covering of some sort over it appears blond hair.

Online Encyclopaedia – emphasis mine:

‘Her first appearance on film chronologically is on the sidewalk in front of the Dallas County Building, which is visible in an image as being on Kennedy’s right. She would have crossed Houston Street and onto Dealey Plaza in order to be visible in the Dealey Plaza images.

This may imply that the images show two different women of similar appearance.’

Babushka 2a, wearing a light coloured overcoat, a scarf and sunglasses.

Agreed, this is undoubtedly Babushka 2. While she does look remotely suspicious in the way she is dressed and standing – with a rather unsettling smile – this woman in the view of this writer looks little like Babushka (B1) and rightly or wrongly more in keeping with Babushka 2b (below).

In this montage, there is an invaluable side profile of seemingly, Babushka 2b. She has dark hair like Babushka 2a though is without sunglasses.

Encyclopaedia:

‘It is plausible [though unlikely] that once the motorcade passed by she was able to cross the street to catch a second motorcade drive past on Dealey Plaza where she would be on Kennedy’s left.’

Thus Babushka (B1) was visible enough to be noticed, she was not clear enough to identify. Her face was obscured and her clothing was generic. Her angle in the surviving images does not reveal anything more than her posture and position. It was as if one of if not the most potentially important witnesses of the day had been recorded just well enough to become (in)famous, and just poorly enough to remain forever out of reach – it would seem.

The mystery does not end there as the plot thickens.

Who pray tell, is this woman?

For while this Babushka (B3) is dressed almost identically to Babushka 1, she

a. has an overcoat which is open like Babushka 2b;

b. does not have a visible line at the top of the calves with a different colour continuing to the hem of her coat as Babushka 1; and

c. in addition, her calves are not only thinner than Babushka 2b but also compared with Babushka 1.

Even more confusing is how it appears to be Babushka 3 who has been captured on film vacating Dealey Plaza up the steps heading north on the grassy knoll.

Whoever this woman is, Babushka 3 is following close behind the lady in red as they flee the aftermath of the daytime Dallas nightmare.

Stranger still is how the only other picture of a face aside from the profile of Babushska 2a and the side profile of Babushka 2b (likely the same person) is the still below.

This woman appears to have red hair; her scarf is lowered; and her coat is buttoned. She appears diminutive and older; not resembling the straight posture and more youthful demeanour reflected by Babushka 1.

Is this another woman entirely? Or is this the facial identity of Babushka 3? How many Babushkas were there exactly?

The whole assassination of John F Kennedy is a surreal event, with many of its component parts equally as disorientating. Even in this aspect, the Babushka Lady is enigmatic enough without the addition of multiple look a likes.

If these images existed for Babushka 3 and Babushka 2a, then why did the authorities not track them down? Did they realise they were different people from Babushka 1? As it is for Babushka 1 where there does not appear to be a photo of any part of her face.

She has so easily slipped through the net. Yet why more than one Babushka, all dressed in tan/light brown overcoats and pink shades of head scarves?

This is an extraordinary coincidence. Palpably, the woman all received the memo that morning – but this of itself is highly suspicious. Multiple agents used as decoys, so as to confuse and deflect from one in particular perhaps? One agent tasked with getting as near as possible to the President’s car on Elm Street and the very segment of road where the key bullet fired would find its (lethal) mark.

Is this why the Babushka Lady was ignored and allowed to disappear into obscurity, because she was a (CIA) agent performing a mission to film the crucial seconds when Kennedy died. For logically, relying on a civilian to capture the exact moment was risky.

Abraham Zapruder was one of at least 32 people in Dealey Plaza known to have made a film or take photographs at or around the time of the shooting. The Babushka Lady would be interestingly, number 33 – Article: 33.

A Woman I Know:

‘In an effort to understand how events on Dealey Plaza unfolded, Haverstick created a Multicam video composite from all the primary angles filmed of the Kennedy assassination. Of particular interest were the movements of the Babushka Lady before and after the fatal shot.’

‘Notice how quickly the scene evolved, and how the Babushka first stood motionless after the fatal shot was fired, then was among the first onlookers to exit the scene to the parking area beyond the grassy knoll.’

Online Encyclopaedia:

‘Although it is not the only film of the shooting, the Zapruder film has been described as the most complete, offering a relatively clear view from a somewhat elevated position on the side from which the president’s fatal head wound is visible. Given the camera’s 18.3 frames-per-second speed [and a running time of 26 seconds, containing 486 frames], the film served as a “clock” to construct a detailed timeline of the shots fired.’

Even so, enough evidence exists to expose the Zapruder film made available to the public – and used by the Warren Commission – is an edited (spliced in more than one place) version, so that the conclusions drawn on:

a. how many shots were fired;

b. when they were fired;

c. from where they originated; and

d. fired by whom, are all called into question.

Encyclopaedia – emphasis mine:

‘JFK assassination conspiracy theorists have long questioned whether the film known to the public as the Zapruder film is identical to what Abraham Zapruder recorded in his camera, or whether the film was subsequently altered.

For example, critics point to the fact that the Zapruder film seems to show the presidential limousine moving at a steady rate throughout, whereas numerous eyewitnesses testified that the limousine briefly came to a stop or near-stop during the shooting.

The camera model used by Abraham Zapruder

In October 1965, JFK assassination researcher David Lifton went to the UCLA Law School office of Professor Wesley Liebeler, the former Warren Commission staff attorney who had taken Zapruder’s testimony. Lifton referred Liebeler to a page in the Warren Commission Hearings and Exhibits, Volume 18, where an apparent splice could be seen in a printed Zapruder frame:

The splice was clearly visible in frame 212. A thick black horizontal line ran across the center of the frame where the film had been cut, frames removed, and the two ends spliced together. Liebeler practically did a double take.

Liebeler initially made a wry comment that the splice was a “very unlawyerlike” way of handling evidence. He then wrote a letter to Warren Commission General Counsel J. Lee Rankin, asking if there was “a ready explanation for the omission of the frames”, and if the matter should be formally raised with the FBI for follow-up.

Liebeler received two replies, one from Rankin’s assistant Norman Redlich suggesting that “the frames you have in mind were deleted… because… they were of little value because during those frames the Presidential limousine was almost completely hidden by the (Stemmons Freeway) sign”, and one from Rankin saying that Redlich’s reply disposed of the matter.

In January 1967, Life magazine issued a statement that the splice was a result of a photo lab technician accidentally damaging the footage near frame 212, which had to be repaired with a splice. In early 1969, assassination researcher Josiah Thompson discovered a second splice, near frame 155.

In addition to concerns about possible alterations, the claim that the Zapruder film covers the entire shooting from beginning to end has been called into question. Max Holland, author of The Kennedy Assassination Tapes, and professional photographer Johann Rush, wrote a joint editorial piece, published by The New York Times on November 22, 2007.

It noted that Zapruder paused filming at around frame 132, when only police motorcycles were visible. When Zapruder resumed filming, frame 133 already shows the presidential motorcade in view. Holland and Rush suggest that the pause could have great significance for interpreting the assassination.

One of the controversies with the Warren Report is its difficulty in satisfactorily accounting for the sequencing of the assassination, in particular, what happened to the one shot that missed, and how Lee Harvey Oswald came to miss at what was assumed to be close range.

Holland and Rush argue that the break in the Zapruder film might conceal a first shot earlier than analysts have hitherto assumed. In that scenario, a horizontal traffic mast would temporarily have obstructed Oswald’s line of sight.

In the authors’ words,

“The film, we realize, does not depict an assassination about to commence. It shows one that had already started.”

The evidence offered by Holland and Rush to support their theory was challenged in a series of 2007–08 articles by computer animator Dale K. Myers and assassination researcher Todd W. Vaughan, who defended the prevailing belief that Zapruder’s film captured the entire shooting sequence.

The authenticity of the image in frame 313 [fatal head shot] was disputed by Douglas Horne, Senior Analyst for the Assassination Records Review Board, and by Dino Brugioni of the CIA’s National Photographic Interpretation Center (NPIC), who was considered one of the world’s foremost imagery analysts.

Horne learned that the NPIC worked on two different versions of the Zapruder film on Saturday and Sunday nights immediately following the Friday assassination.

The NPIC analysis was done by separate teams, which had been compartmentalized and ordered not to speak of their work. When Horne showed his findings and evidence to Brugioni, the latter re-examined a copy of the extant Zapruder film, provided by Horne. Brugioni concluded that the Zapruder film in the National Archives and available to the public, specifically frame 313, is an altered version of the film he saw and worked with on November 23–24, the earlier of the two versions handled by the NPIC.

Brugioni recalled seeing a “white cloud” of brain matter, three or four feet (91 or 122 cm) above Kennedy’s head, and said that this “spray” lasted for more than one frame of the film.

The version of the Zapruder film available to the public depicts the fatal head shot on only one frame of the film, frame 313.

Brugioni was certain that the set of briefing boards available to the public in the National Archives is not the set that he and his team produced on November 23–24.’

The Kennedy family purchased the Zapruder film from Life magazine in 1999 for $16 million. Meanwhile, the ‘original’ Zapruder film is stored in the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) in College Park, Maryland. Yet the copyright restrictions mean the Kennedy family retains control over commercial use of the film.

So while the Zapruder footage was filmed from left to right; conversely, footage filmed from right to left would have been invaluable if the Babushka Lady had indeed been filming from the other side of Elm Street – like Marie Muchmore but closer. It is also noteworthy either by accident or preparation that Babushka… was on the side less likely to have been hit when additional shots was fired (or misfired) from another direction, as well as the added benefit of being in a prime position to film.

As an aside, it is wondered if this Elm Street was the inspiration for Wes Craven’s block buster and classic horror film, A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). Upon checking, it sadly seems it was.

Dealey Plaza viewed from the east with the corner of the Texas Schools Book Depository building in the lower right hand corner.

There was circumstantial evidence that (three) shots had been fired from the Texas Schools Book Depository (TSBD) building. Three empty bullet casings, and a conveniently hidden rifle, were found on the sixth floor of the building. The shells were matched to the rifle (originally identified as a German Mauser, subsequently changed to an Italian Carcano rifle to implicate Lee Harvey Oswald) and to some but not all, of the bullet fragments retrieved from President Kennedy’s car.

Howard Brennan was standing opposite the TSBD, and saw a man with a gun in a sixth-floor window.

Geneva Hine was on the second floor: “[the shots] came from inside the building … the building vibrated from the result of the explosion.”

Patricia Lawrence was standing outside the TSBD: “I thought the shots had come from right over my head.”

Approximately forty witnesses claimed that at least one bullet was fired from the direction of the infamous grassy knoll in the northwest corner of Dealey Plaza, or to have seen smoke or smelled gunpowder in that area – about a hundred yards to the west of the TSBD* – in front of President Kennedy instead of from behind.*

The Warren Commission in 1964 had been given the task of showing that the assassination was the work of one person (Oswald) and that all the shots had come from one direction* – so as to hide the reality of ‘official’ involvement.

Consequently, the Commission brushed aside the evidence of any shots from the front. However, the House Select Committee on Assassinations in 1979 accepted that at least one shot had been fired from behind the fence on the grassy knoll.

Encyclopaedia:

‘In March 1965, Harold Feldman wrote that there were 121 witnesses to the assassination listed in the Warren Report [out of approximately six hundred people at the Dealey Plaza that day], 51 of whom indicated that the shots that killed Kennedy came from the grassy knoll, while [only] 32 said the shots originated from the Texas School Book Depository.

In 1967, Josiah Thompson examined the statements of 64 witnesses and concluded that 33 [half] of them thought that the shots emanated from the grassy knoll.’

Jean Hill was standing on the south side of Elm Street, just a few yards from President Kennedy when he was shot in the head. Mrs. Hill stated she heard from four to six shots [at least four] in all and believes they came from a spot on the grassy knoll just west of the Texas School Book Depository Building – March 13, 1964.

Sam Holland was standing on the railway bridge known as the triple underpass, at the west end of Dealey Plaza.

“When they got just about to the Arcade I heard what I thought for the moment was a fire cracker and he slumped over [a bullet which some believe entered Kennedy’s neck and was not an exit wound from one entering his upper back]…”

“… and I looked over toward the arcade and trees and saw a puff of smoke come from the trees and I heard three more shots after the first shot but that was the only puff of smoke I saw… But the puff of smoke I saw definitely came from behind the arcade through the trees” – November 22, 1963

Mr Holland: “I counted four shots and about the same time all this was happening, and in this group of trees – [indicating].”

Mr Stern: “Now, you are indicating trees on the north side of Elm Street?”

Mr Holland: “These trees right along here [indicating].”

Mr Stern: “Let’s mark this Exhibit C and draw a circle around the trees you are referring to.”

Mr Holland: “Right in there. [Indicating]… And a puff of smoke came out about 6 or 8 feet above the ground right out from under those trees. And at just about this location from where I was standing you could see that puff of smoke, like someone had thrown a fire-cracker or something out, and that is just about the way it sounded… There were definitely four reports [4 total].”

Mr Stern: “You have no doubt about that?”

Mr Holland: “I have no doubt about it. I have no doubt about seeing that puff of smoke come out from under those trees either” – April 8, 1964.

A J Millican: “I was standing on the North side of Elm Street, about half way between Houston and the Underpass… I heard three shots come from up toward Houston and Elm right by the Book Depository Building, and then immediately I heard two more shots come from the Arcade between the Book Store and the Underpass, and then three more shots [at least four] came from the same direction only sounded further back” – November 22, 1963.

Luke Mooney, a deputy sheriff, was standing on Main Street, on the edge of Dealey Plaza. He was one of the officers who later found the rifle hidden (planted) under boxes on the sixth floor of the book depository.

Mr Ball: “Why did you go over to the railroad yard?

Mr Mooney: “Well, that was – from the echo of the shots, we thought they came from that direction” – March 25, 1964.

The key word here is echo and so the minimum of four shots witnesses agree upon – even if not always the direction – were plausibly caused by the initial sound of guns being fired. The confusion of further rifle reports could be accounted for by the echoes of the original four bullets. Which not only blurs the sound of how many shots may have been fired, especially if someone happens to be very close to a passing bullet, but also can make it difficult to know exactly which direction the bullet has travelled from.

Support for this is found in the fact the amount of shots reported and confirmed by witnesses tended to be an even number.

Encyclopaedia:

‘Lee Bowers operated a railroad tower that overlooked the parking lot on the north side of the grassy knoll. When interviewed by the Warren Commission in 1964, he reported that he saw two men behind the grassy knoll’s stockyard fence before the shooting took place. The men did not appear to be acting together or doing anything suspicious. After the shooting, Bowers said that one of the men remained behind the fence, but that he lost track of the second man whose clothing blended into the foliage.

When interviewed… in 1966… Bowers noted that he saw something that attracted his attention, either a flash of light [muzzle flash] or smoke from the knoll, allowing him to believe “something out of the ordinary” had occurred there. Bowers told Lane that he heard three shots, the last two in quick succession [two sharpshooters?].’

The Warren Commission made a concerted effort to convince the public that there was one ‘crazy’ assassin (Lee Harvey Oswald) working alone and fired (three bullets) from behind President Kennedy’s car once it had turned left onto Elm Street; thereby endeavouring to conceal that there were at least two assassins, with another shooting from the other direction on Elm Street towards the front of the president’s car.

It is logical (common sense) to ensure that the mission to kill Kennedy was enacted with a successful outcome and so the tactic used was the formation of a pincer position with snipers either end of Elm Street. Perhaps there were four (or more), with likely two either end.

For what are deemed the ‘first’ two shots were only 1.6 seconds apart.

The sniper(s) stationed on the east end of Elm Street had arguably the more difficult position and it may explain a shot which missed(?); but certainly the bullet (1) that hit Governor John Connally (the ‘magic bullet’ erroneously believed to have passed through Kennedy before seriously wounding the Governor) instead of the intended mark the president; and the bullet (2) which hit Kennedy in the upper back and supposedly [yet unrealistically] exited from his neck/throat.

Though as mentioned, there is reason to consider that a different bullet entirely entered Kennedy’s neck (from the front).

Once the motor cavalcade had moved further along Elm Street, then at least one shot (of two)* appears to have originated from the west end of Elm Street – the Grassy Knoll – and these were allegedly 6 seconds later and 0.7 seconds apart.

Note, these timings are based on the edited Zapruder film and therefore contain a margin of error.

It is of significant interest how the two shots labelled as ‘first’ and ‘second’ were some six to seven seconds prior to the ‘third’ and ‘fourth’ shots. Therefore these four shots (in the least) were fired chronologically in pairs. This gives credence to perhaps four marksmen, in pairs and stationed at opposite ends of the Elm Street assassination zone.

Encyclopaedia:

‘Several conspiracy theories posit that at least one shooter was located in the Dal-Tex Building, located across the street from the [TSBD]. According to L. Fletcher Prouty, the physical location of James Tague when he was injured by a bullet fragment is not consistent with the trajectory of a missed shot from the Texas School Book Depository, leading Prouty to theorize that Tague was instead wounded by a missed shot from the second floor of the Dal-Tex Building.’

Tellingly, ‘some researchers claim that FBI photographs of the presidential limousine show a bullet hole in its windshield above the rear-view mirror, and a crack in the windshield itself. When Robert Groden, author of The Killing of a President, asked for an explanation, the FBI responded that what Groden thought was a bullet hole “occurred prior to Dallas”.

In 1993, George Whitaker, a manager at the Ford Motor Company’s Rouge Plant in Detroit, told attorney and criminal justice professor Doug Weldon that after reporting to work on November 25, 1963, he discovered the presidential limousine in the Rouge Plant’s B building with its windshield removed. Whitaker said that the limousine’s removed windshield had a through-and-through bullet hole from the front.* He said that he was directed by one of Ford’s vice presidents to use the windshield as a template to fabricate a new windshield for installation in the limousine. Whitaker also said he was told to destroy the old one.’

Some might argue that the bullet hole in the windscreen could have been caused by a shot from the TSBD building. Against this is the impossible trajectory from the building and whether it had ricocheted through either Kennedy or Connally first. Whereas a lower elevated shooter from the grassy knoll area – one who hit Kennedy in the head (or throat) – may have had no other choice but to shoot through the windscreen first. A further explanation is the hole in the windscreen may be evidence of the ‘missing’ bullet.

Others will also ask, where were the bullets which were fired on the day? Spectators in their dispersal from Dealey Plaza during the aftermath no doubt may have happened on the bullets laying on the road or anywhere else nearby and pocketed them – whether civilian, police or security agents.

More significantly than shots fired from a different direction than the TSBD building, is the fact that when the fatal shot struck; ‘the President’s head and upper torso moved rapidly backwards – indicating, to many observers, a shot from the right front.

Sherry Gutierrez, a certified crime scene and bloodstain pattern analyst, concluded “the head injury to President Kennedy was the result of a single gunshot fired from the right front of the President.”

‘Paul Chambers believes that the fatal head shot is consistent with a high velocity (approx. 1,200 m/s; 3,900 ft/s) rifle rather than the medium-velocity (600 m/s; 2,000 ft/s) Mannlicher–Carcano [or in actuality the originally identified German 7.65 mm Mauser rifle].

Close inspection of the Zapruder film (frames 312 and 313) show Kennedy’s head moves downward immediately before it moves rapidly backwards. Anthony Marsh suggests that this downward motion was caused by driver William Greer’s deceleration of the car.

… Josiah Thompson, Robert Groden and Cyril Wecht, suggest that this downward-and-then-backward motion was caused by two* near-simultaneous bullets: one from the rear and the other from the right front.’

An explanation from another investigator concluded the double movement of Kennedy’s head in this manner was indicative of the recoil caused by a shot from behind.

Even more damning evidence that an effort was made to cover up the multiple gunmen scenario in favour of a lone assassin are the discrepancies between the Parkland Memorial Hospital (Dallas) where the body of John F Kennedy was first taken and later Bethesda Naval Hospital (Maryland) afterwards.

The Emergency room at Parkland Memorial Hospital

Encyclopaedia:

‘There is a conflicting testimony regarding the autopsy performed on Kennedy’s body, particularly during the examination on his brain and whether or not the photos submitted as evidence are the same as those taken during the examination. At [BNH], Commander J. J. Humes, the chief autopsy pathologist noted that Kennedy’s brain weighed 1,500 grams following formalin fixation.

Douglas Horne, the Assassination Record Review Board’s chief analyst for military records, said he was “90 to 95% certain” that the photographs in the National Archives are not really of Kennedy’s brain. Some conspiracy theorists have said that Kennedy’s brain was stolen to cover up evidence that he was shot from the front.

David Lifton presented a scenario in which conspirators on Air Force One removed Kennedy’s body from its original bronze casket and placed it in a shipping casket, while en route from Dallas to Washington. Once the presidential plane arrived at Andrews Air Force Base, the shipping casket with the President’s body in it was surreptitiously taken by helicopter from the side of the plane that was out of the television camera’s view.

Kennedy’s body was then taken to an unknown location – most likely Walter Reed Army Medical Center – to surgically alter the body [head, brain] to make it appear that he was shot only from the rear.

Laboratory technologist Paul O’Connor was one of the major witnesses supporting another part of David Lifton’s theory that somewhere between Parkland and Bethesda the President’s body was made to appear as if it had been shot only from the rear.

O’Connor said that President Kennedy’s body arrived at Bethesda inside a body bag in “a cheap, shipping-type of casket”, which differed from the description of the ornamental bronze casket and sheet that the body had been wrapped in at Parkland Hospital.

O’Connor [who assisted in the President’s autopsy], said that the brain had already been removed by the time it got to Bethesda, and that there were “just little pieces” of brain matter left inside the skull.

In August 1977, Paul O’Connor… told investigators for the HSCA that there was “nothing left in the cranium but splattered brain matter” and “there was no use me opening the skull because there were no brains.”

The identity of the snipers may never be revealed, yet the confession from former CIA agent Howard Hunt perhaps is the simplest and most accurate in that ‘all the clues lead’ to the CIA and Lyndon B Johnson.

Lyndon B Johnson (August 27, 1908 – January 22, 1973) takes the oath of office aboard Air Force One just two hours (2.30pm) after the assassination (12.30pm) while Jackie Kennedy (right), still in her blood-soaked clothes, looks on.

Encyclopaedia:

‘The theory that the former CIA agent and Watergate burglar E. Howard Hunt was a participant in the assassination of Kennedy garnered much publicity from 1978 to 2000. In 1981, Hunt won a libel judgment against Liberty Lobby’s paper The Spotlight, which in 1978 printed an allegation by Victor Marchetti stating that Hunt was in Dallas on the day of the assassination and suggesting Hunt’s involvement in a conspiracy…

After Hunt’s death in 2007, an audio-taped “deathbed confession” in which Hunt claimed first-hand knowledge of a conspiracy, as a co-conspirator, was released by his son Saint John Hunt. In the confession, Hunt claimed to have been a “benchwarmer” in Dallas during the events, and he named several high-level CIA operatives as those who likely carried out the logistics of the assassination. Hunt named Vice President Lyndon Johnson as the most likely figure behind the main impetus of the conspiracy.’

“I will splinter the CIA into a thousand pieces and scatter it into the winds” – John F Kennedy.

It looks like they got to him first.

While Kennedy garnered numerous enemies from a number of quarters due to his policies and decisions, it was firstly, planning to drop (the unsavoury) Lyndon Johnson as his vice presidential running mate in the 1964 election and secondly, the signing of Executive Order 11110^ nearly six months earlier which undoubtedly led to

a. Johnson’s involvement; and

b. the Establishment’s decision to eliminate a problematic president – Article: The Establishment: Who are they… What do they want?

In this regard, most Americans at the time did not realise just how much of a true patriot^ John F Kennedy was to the American people and on behalf of the American nation.

For in time, the transference^ of the money supply from the privately owned Federal Reserve to the United States Treasury would have eventually eliminated the national debt; returning usury free fiscal power back to the American people – Article: The Establishment: Who are they… What do they want?

Identity and Claims

One of the Babushkas was last seen (after the shooting had ended) crossing Elm Street – the street the motorcade turned onto before the first shots were fired – and joining the throng escaping up the steps of the grassy knoll. Any hope of learning her identity or finding valuable potential footage she may have possessed frustratingly disappeared forever.

That said, Gary Mack who testified before the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB) in 1994, explained how he had been told by a Kodak executive from the Dallas office that a woman in her early thirties (with brunette hair) brought in film purported to be of the assassination scene while they were at the time processing the Zapruder film.

Apparently the woman (Kodak Lady 1) had explained to federal investigators at the film processing office that she ran from Main Street across the grass to Elm Street where she stopped and snapped a photo – just one? Supposedly, the photo was blurry and ‘virtually useless’ and so it is probable the woman went home without anyone recording her identity.

A similar account was shared by Kodak technician Jack Harrison, who claimed to have developed a colour film for a brunette woman (Kodak Lady 2) in her 30s or 40s on the day of the assassination.

Was this Babushka?

Possibly… if she was a regular civilian.

Probably not… if she was a CIA agent.

In 1970, a woman named Beverly Oliver came forward, purporting to be the Babushka Lady. Oliver claimed she had filmed the assassination, handing the undeveloped film to men she believed were FBI agents. However, her claims have been met with skepticism due to inconsistencies; including

a. an age discrepancy;

b. a contradictory physical description of her compared to the Babushka Lady; and

c. the type of camera she claimed to have used not being in existence in 1963.

Unraveling The Mystery Of The Babushka Lady Who Witnessed JFK’s Assassination, Katie Serena (September 17, 2022), John Kuroski (March 12, 2024):

‘In 1970, a woman named Beverly Oliver was at a church revival meeting in Texas, when she revealed to a conspiracy researcher named Gary Shaw that she was the Babushka Lady. She claimed she had filmed the entire assassination on a Super 8 film Yashica camera [on the south side of Elm Street, making her one of the closest witnesses to the fatal shot], but that before she could develop the film two FBI agents had confiscated it [on November 25].

She admitted that she never saw their credentials, but that they had claimed that they were agents. They told her they would return the film within 10 days, but she never received any kind of confirmation, nor did she ever see the video again [The agent she claimed had taken her camera was coincidentally named Regis Kennedy. However, he was in New Orleans at the time]. She did admit… that she never followed up herself, for fear of being arrested for possessing marijuana.

As vehemently as she touted her story, those who opposed it did so with as much vigor. Doubters were quick to point out that the camera she claimed to have used, the Yashica Super 8, hadn’t even been produced until 1969, six years after the assassination. Confronted with this fact, she brushed it off, insisting it was an “experimental” model that she got before it was made widely available, and that it didn’t even have a name on it at the time.’

Encyclopaedia:

‘Critics have pointed out that Oliver’s physical description – a 17-year-old [tall] slender blonde in 1963 – contrasts sharply with the Babushka Lady’s apparent age of 30 to 40, stockier build, and darker hair visible beneath the headscarf in Dealey Plaza films.’

Katie Serena:

‘The most common theories were that Babushka Lady was a Russian spy or that she was a dirty government official. Some speculated that she was a member of the Secret Service or that the camera she was holding was actually a gun. Given that Oliver had seemingly come out of nowhere and didn’t fit the description of the lady in the photos, theorists immediately began to suspect that she had a sinister background.’

The Babushka Lady, Ian W Granstra, November 9, 2023:

‘Oliver was a dancer at the Colony Club in Dallas, located next to the Carousel Club owned by Jack Ruby. Two days after President Kennedys’ assassination, Ruby shot presumed killer Lee Harvey Oswald to death. When questioned, Oliver said Ruby had introduced her to Oswald several weeks earlier at the Carousel Club. She also claimed to have seen David Ferrie and Jack Lawrence at the club, two men frequently mentioned as having involvement in President Kennedy’s assassination.’

Encyclopaedia:

‘In 2023, filmmaker Mary Haverstick proposed in her book [A Woman I Know: Female Spies, Double Identities and a New Story of the Kennedy Assassination] that the Babushka Lady could have been pioneering aviator Jerrie Cobb (1931–2019), a member of the Mercury 13 astronaut candidate group, or possibly CIA operative June Cobb (1928–2005), due to alleged identity overlaps and circumstantial ties to Dallas on November 22, 1963.’

Geraldyn Meron “Jerrie” Cobb

‘Haverstick’s theory draws on Jerrie Cobb’s aviation activities, including her self-reported piloting of a small aircraft at Redbird Airport south of Dallas that day, and June Cobb’s espionage background in anti-Castro plots. This identification remains speculative and has not been widely accepted by assassination researchers.’

‘My friend was a secret CIA agent – and I think she was the second JFK shooter’, Gordon Rayner, November 19, 2023 – emphasis mine:

‘What Haverstick found out was that [Jerrie] Cobb flew a light aircraft in and out of a private airport in Dallas on the day of the assassination, in such peculiar circumstances that she became convinced she played a role in the murder, possibly as an intended getaway pilot for [an] assassin…

If that were not startling enough, she also came to suspect that Cobb was a mysterious character known to Kennedy investigators as the Babushka Lady, who was the closest person filming the president at the moment he was shot, but who vanished after the assassination, along with her all-important footage.

… another woman, June Cobb… appears in declassified CIA files as an agent who worked as Fidel Castro’s secretary in Communist revolutionary Cuba in the late 1950s.

June Cobb’s name also appears repeatedly in files relating to the Kennedy murder, not least because she alerted the CIA to the suspicious behaviour of Lee Harvey Oswald in Mexico City weeks before Kennedy’s assassination. Intriguingly, at least one 20-page file on June Cobb is among the 3,000-4,000 documents relating to the assassination that Joe Biden is still refusing to release.’

June Cobb (1)

‘Haverstick discovered what she describes as an astonishing list of similarities between June Cobb and Jerrie Cobb, and became so convinced that they were either the same person or that they had been swapping identities that she had to confront Jerrie with what she had found.

“Her answers were bizarre, off the rails,” she says. “She seemed first of all thrilled that I had found June Cobb. I expected her to walk out in a huff that I was looking into this or I had come up with a wild theory.

“But she was happy; she technically denied being June, then proceeded to tell me lots of things about June that no one would know unless they worked closely with June or were June.”

June Cobb (2)

“She said that June had impersonated her for a while. I think Jerrie was the one doing the impersonating.” Jerrie also told her in later conversations that she knew Castro, as well as Kennedy.

Given June’s presence in the Kennedy archives, Haverstick decided to look for any evidence of Jerrie in the documents, and discovered a reference to a small twin-engined plane, of the kind that Jerrie flew at the time, that witnesses reported standing for hours with its engines running at Redbird private airport in Dallas that day.

“I took a giant guess,” says Haverstick, 63, “and I said to her that I thought June Cobb flew to Redbird. Jerrie broke into almost tears, was extremely emotional and then she told me it had been her.”

June Cobb (3)

As with the Babushka Lady, there are different photos for the woman pertaining to be June Cobb.

‘Jerrie’s explanation for what she was doing there stretched credibility to the limit: she said she had been hired by Life magazine to fly a reporting team to Dallas to cover the presidential visit, but that when they heard he had been assassinated they abandoned the assignment and left.

The suggestion that a team of reporters and photographers would sit in an aeroplane waiting to leave, instead of running to cover the biggest story of the decade, made Haverstick “100 per cent certain” that Jerrie was lying.

She decided to look at photographs to see if she could spot Jerrie in Dallas, and came across the “anomaly” of the Babushka Lady.

“I was worried enough that the Babushka Lady could be Jerrie that I confronted Jerrie,” she says. “It took me a while to be able to work up to the conversation with Jerrie and her answers to that conversation were not particularly reassuring to me.”

One theory around the Babushka Lady is that she was holding a gun concealed in her camera, and took a shot at Kennedy. Haverstick is convinced there was a second shooter and says the Babushka Lady was ideally placed to be that person, just 33ft away from him with the legendary grassy knoll as the perfect ballistic backstop if she missed [Article: 33].’

In Murder Most Foul, ‘a musical meditation on JFK’s assassination and its effect on American counterculture, Bob Dylan strangely sings:

“Zapruder’s film I’ve seen that before / seen it 33 times maybe more”.

Rayner:

‘She says that while she cannot be certain who the Babushka Lady is:

“I am certain that the Babushka [Lady] is an under-researched character, that she was completely overlooked. If that happened today there would be a manhunt for her and you would expect to see the footage.”

“I felt [Jerrie Cobb] had some culpability in the assassination because of the role she described to me and because of what she was hiding about her double identities,”

Yet despite calling her book A Woman I Know, Haverstick admits:

“I think she was to some extent unknowable at her core. I did feel an emotional disconnect, I didn’t observe her having empathy, so that was troubling to me.

“I felt that she presented a facade, some of which was true. She was a pioneering woman, that was true, she was a very capable woman, but there is an enigma that is almost impossible to pin down.”

Before Jerrie died in 2019 at the age of 88, she took Haverstick on a road trip to see a solar eclipse, which both women instinctively knew was likely to be their last meeting, as Jerrie’s health was failing. There was no deathbed confession, no tell-all letter, no smoking gun document left for the chronicler of her life.

“I did hope there might be a document or something but I had got to know her ground rules pretty well,” Haverstick says. “I had come to realise that she would never tell an overt story of what she did. I came away thinking she’s as enigmatic and more so as the day I met her.”

Jerrie Cobb

Over time, the focus expanded to include conspiracy theories suggesting Babushka was a government agent, spy, or even an assassin, though no definitive evidence has ever confirmed any of these claims.

While an assassin on the day seems improbable, a photographer cannot be so easily dismissed.

Of all the photos (and stills) of Babushka, it is Babushka 1 which a person could be forgiven for believing bears a bodily resemblance in stature, upright bearing and form with… Jerrie Cobb.

‘The Babushka Lady’s presence contributed to the mystique and intrigue surrounding the JFK assassination, as her potential footage could have provided crucial evidence about the event. Her unidentified status and the speculation about her role have [fuelled] numerous conspiracy theories, keeping public interest alive for decades.’

The reason Babushka has never faded from interest is due to the fact she was not just another bystander. If she actually recorded the tragic events unfolding before her, then her film could have captured the assassination from an invaluably unique angle, potentially a pivotal visual record from the front left hand side of the motorcade. In a case where timing, direction and movement have been argued over for generations, even a few seconds of alternative missing footage could matter significantly.

Of course, Babushka may never have captured anything usable at all. Merely innocuously holding a camera but not filming; the camera suffering a malfunction; or footage filmed was of poor quality. Babushka may have left Dealey Plaza, Dallas, Texas (the country even) before understanding how significant her position was. She may have actually been interviewed in some form but later lost amidst poor record keeping (Kodak Lady 2), a memory gap, or mistaken identity.

‘In a chaotic national trauma, not every loose end means [a] conspiracy.’

On the other hand, if Babushka did capture something important and the film disappeared, then it has been taken, hidden or deliberately withheld. That suspicion thrives because the Kennedy assassination has become a permanent debate revolving around trust, secrecy and whether the truth has ever been made public.

This writer believes it hasn’t.

‘In a story already crowded with disputed evidence, an unidentified witness with missing footage is almost guaranteed to become legend.’

Was Babushka an operative of some kind, instructed to film the tragedy and then quietly slip away forever with her crucial footage?

If Babushka had nothing to hide, surely she would have come forward when she learned of the furore over her identity and seeing her picture repeatedly broadcast. Babushka remaining in the shadows is somewhat suspicious. Surely someone she knew would have recognised her from the film footage and stills and known she had been at Dealey Plaza on that fateful day, yet no one came forward about her either.

The following points (as is the observation) are coincidentally relevant and suitably appropriate with regard to the mystery Babushka woman and her movements at Dealey Plaza on November 22, 1963.

Russia Beyond, 10 unwritten rules of Russian babushkas, Yekaterina Sinelschikova, March 12, 2020 – emphasis mine:

‘A Russian babushka (elderly woman or grandma) is not just a charming old lady.

She is a hurricane in a dress and if you have a brush with her you are unlikely to forget it in a hurry.

2. Going somewhere at six in the morning
3. Guarding territory
7. Instilling fear
10. Following a strict routine

Strikingly, a banshee (in Irish folklore) is a spirit in the form of a wailing (screaming) woman who appears before or is heard by, members of a family as a sign that one of them is about to die.

All four of Kennedy’s grandparents were children of Irish immigrants.

Read the Real Story, The Babushka Lady – The Woman Who Filmed the JFK Assassination and Then Disappeared From History:

‘Many JFK witnesses became known because they spoke, testified, or were pulled into the machinery of the investigation. The Babushka Lady became famous precisely because she did not. She is remembered for absence. No interview that settled things. No confirmed name. No recovered reel. Just the image of someone who may have seen history more clearly than almost anyone else, and then slipped away before history could question her.

People are not just asking who the Babushka Lady was. They are asking whether some missing fragment of film could have changed how the Kennedy assassination was understood.

The mystery survives because it combines three things that pull readers in every time:

a famous event, a missing witness, and a vanished piece of possible evidence.

It also survives because visual evidence carries unusual emotional power. A testimony can be doubted. A memory can blur. But footage feels like a machine that witnessed the truth. Whether that faith is always justified is another question entirely. Even so, the idea that one unidentified woman may have held a camera on the most disputed seconds in American political history is almost impossible to let go…

That is why the Babushka Lady keeps resurfacing in books, documentaries, and long-night forum threads. She is not merely an extra standing in the background of the JFK assassination. She represents the part of the story that still feels unfinished. Somewhere between the official investigation, public suspicion, and the limits of what images can prove, she remains one of Dealey Plaza’s last great ghosts.’

If Babushka was about thirty-five years of age in 1963, then it is possible she is still alive now at the grand old age of ninety-eight. Though with time inexorably passing… Babushka still being alive becomes less likely and learning her identity increasingly improbable.

Babushka’s destiny to remain a phantom ghost in death, joining John F Kennedy in the hallowed halls traversing from this dark world to the light of the next.

So do not be afraid of these people. They hide the things that they do. But there will be a time when other people will see those things. Everyone will know all their secrets.

There is profound significance attached with all numbers. Everything around us is but a clever and complex numerical design; the result of coded mathematical formulas producing a mind boggling program that is the beauty of nature and the wonder of ourselves.

The Occult Power of Numbers, W Wynn Westcott – emphasis mine:

“The followers of Pythagoras… referred every object, planet, man, idea, and essence to some number or other, in a way which to most moderns must seem curious and mystical in the highest degree. ‘The numerals of Pythagoras’, says Porphyry, who lived about 300 A.D., ‘were hieroglyphic symbols, by means whereof he explained all ideas concerning the nature of things’, and the same [numeric] method of explaining the secrets of nature is once again being insisted upon in the new revelation of the ‘Secret Doctrine’, by H.P. Blavatsky.

‘Numbers are a key to the ancient views of cosmogony – in its broad sense, spiritually as well as physically considered, to the evolution of the present human race; all systems of religious mysticism are based upon numerals.

The sacredness of numbers begins with the Great First Cause, the One, and ends only with the nought or zero – symbol of the infinite and boundless universe.”

In the inspired word, as well as in esoteric writings, numbers have attachment to sacred meaning. The number three scripturally is associated with decision and finality. It is unique in that doubled, it becomes six and tripled, it becomes the magical, mystical number nine that divides and multiples perfectly. The number six being a number associated with the creation of early man and humankind (refer Chapter XXII Alpha & Omega); and the number nine a conduit to not just the spiritual realm but to the Eternal Creator.

In numerology the number three is equated with creativity, enthusiasm and imagination. The concord of 3-6-9 share kindred energies and relate to the realm of the artistic, inspirational and spiritual. The number three is the more emotive.

Three is very much about the now, not tomorrow and it is a magnet for good luck, favour, blessings and opportunities. The symbol of the triangle and by extension, the pyramid, is a potent one for the number three. The number three, importantly for the occultist or seer, is a number of vision.

The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Numerology, Kay Lagerquist & Lisa Lenard 2004 – emphasis mine:

‘The spiritual essence of the three is bringing that which has never been into being, the power of creativity in all its forms.

In the Pythagorean system, the 3 represents the meaning of excellence, because it has a beginning, a middle, and an end. The magical aspect of the 3 is often used in fairy tales, with three of something to make the happy outcome:

Three rooms of flax in “The Three Spinning Fairies” Three tasks in “The Frog Prince” Three chances to discover the name in “Rumpelstiltskin” [and] many others where the mysterious answer is found in three doors, three riddles, or three wishes.’

A master number has more potential than single digit numbers. Eleven is the most intuitive of all numbers, twenty-two the most powerful and thirty-three the most loving of all numbers and is also strongly associated with healing… when used in an altruistic manner. These results are from when the number is used spiritually. If used selfishly in the material world then the vibrational energy is lower, base and outcomes are negative.

‘Master numbers indicate spatial gifts which make [people] highly sensitive to intuition, extrasensory perception, and the world of higher guidance, including celestial beings, other life realities, and universal spiritual law.’

The master number thirty-three is vital in the process of ‘making spiritual truths work in the material world.’ Remember this concept. It is for this reason that thirty-three is the number of the avatar. Now this is where it starts to become interesting as avatar means in Hindu Mythology: ‘the descent of a deity to the earth in an incarnate form or some manifest shape; the incarnation of a god.’

In Digital Technology: an avatar is ‘a static or moving image or other graphic representation that acts as a proxy for a person… as on the internet’ and in Science Fiction: ‘a hybrid creature, composed of human and alien DNA and remotely controlled by the mind of a genetically matched human being [or alien].’

The number thirty-three has become a prime focus in the New Age; associated with ‘connections to Ascended Masters’, and ‘alignment with [a] Divine Source’, so as to be able to ‘manifest whatever you desire into form.’ This sounds wonderful, yet it is a blind, a trap, a sinister pathway to ensnare the gullible, the weak, the arrogant and the wicked into a relationship with spirits that definitely do not have humankind’s interests at heart.

Secret Teachings Of All Ages, Manly Hall – emphasis mine:

“During the Middle Ages, alchemy was not only a philosophy and a science but also a religion. Those who rebelled against the religious limitations of their day concealed their philosophic teachings under the allegory of gold-making [refer gold, article: The Ark of God]. In this way they preserved their personal liberty and were ridiculed rather than persecuted. Alchemy is a threefold art, its mystery well symbolized by a triangle. Its symbol is 3 times 3 – three elements or processes in three worlds or spheres. The 3 times 3 is part of the mystery of the 33rd degree of Freemasonry, for 33 is 3 times 3, which is 9, the number of esoteric man and the number of emanations from the root of the Divine Tree [of Life].

Beneath the so-called symbolism of alchemy is concealed a magnificent concept, for this ridiculed and despised craft still preserves intact the triple key to the gates of eternal life. Realizing, therefore, that alchemy is a mystery in three worlds – the divine, the human, and the elemental – it can easily be appreciated why the sages and philosophers created and evolved an intricate allegory to conceal their wisdom.”

There are numerous examples in the Bible of the number three, though there are far less for the powerful number thirty-three. The master number of the double three adds potency to the power of the single digit, three.

A pivotal event in the history of time, is the rebellion of the great red dragon – also known as the old (or ancient) serpent, a devil and Satan – recorded in Revelation 12:1-9; where a third, or thirty-three percent of the angelic realm joined Asherah, the original Wisdom of God, in opposing their Eternal Creator – Proverbs 8:22-31 (Article: Asherah). The number three is related to the rebellion, judgement and legacy of the fallen, dark angels.

Moses and Joshua combined to defeat thirty-three Canaanite-Nephilim kings – Joshua 12:2-4, 9-24. It would be surprising if Canaan being divided into thirty-three city-states was a coincidence, considering the material we will cover.

An unknown source states: ‘Mount Hermon is at 33 degrees latitude and longitude. (In the Book of Enoch, Mount Hermon is the place where the Grigori; “Watchers, Sons of God or the Nephilim,” a class of fallen angels descended to Earth)’ – refer Chapter XXXIV Dan: The Invisible Tribe.

David as king, ruled for forty years in total; comprising an initial period over the tribe of Judah from the city of Hebron for seven years; and then reigning over all Israel and Judah from Jerusalem, for a further thirty-three years – 1 Chronicles 29:27.

Incidentally, the Son of Man died – being sacrificed for the sins of the world – in his 33rd year of life at the age of thirty-two and a half. The Messiah had begun his ministry at the age of twenty-nine (in his 30th year) and died three and a half years later – refer article: The Christ Chronology.

Aside from the Bible, we find the number thirty-three within ourselves. An unknown source: ‘The number of turns in a complete sequence of human DNA equals 33.’ The number thirty-three is a pathway to open the ‘Third Eye’ and ‘awakening a serpent within’ for the human spine contains thirty-three vertebrae. In Kundalini yoga – meaning, concernedly: ‘coiled like a snake’ and ‘serpent power’ – special spiritual significance is attached to the spine as the key to unlocking spiritual energy, power and consciousness (refer Chapter XXII Alpha & Omega; and article: Asherah).

Unknown source from article: The Secret Meaning of the Number 33, Beginning and End, 2019 – emphasis mine:

“The nervous system is very complex. We talk about it as a nervous system, but it is actually three nervous systems in one: central, sympathetic, and parasympathetic. The main one is the central nervous system which is our spinal column with its 33 vertebrae and the brain [additionally the human foot has 33 joints]. These are one thing. You cannot separate the brain from the spine. This is why an injury to the spine is so devastating. The whole body depends upon it.

This central nervous system and all its functions are symbolized in the Bible as the Tree Of Life.

That is because it is our own Tree of Life inside.

The important thing here is that the energy that will awaken the Consciousness and will give us the spiritual insight we need is enclosed within Muladhara, trapped, asleep. This is where Kundalini rests and awaits for us to come and awaken it… That… force is represented symbolically as a [sleeping] serpent that is coiled three and a half times and is sleeping.” – Gnostic Teachings.

The serpent is none other than the Serpent of Eden who enticed Eve and Adam away from the Tree of Life, to a path originating with the old and ancient Serpent who is Asherah and the root of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil – Genesis 3:1-7. A path to physicality and away from spirituality as offered by the Eternal – Chapter XXII Alpha & Omega.

The Serpent from the Garden of Eden wishes to offer spirituality on its own terms – in opposition to the Ancient of Days and His path leading to eternal life – using Asherah’s own path, which leads to everlasting destruction. It is not a serpent to awaken and certainly not one to invite.

The ill-advised process of unlocking Kundalini energy through chakras, sacred energy points in the spine is one of opening the third eye, which in reality is the pineal gland in the centre of the human brain. This unlocking, awakens a person’s consciousness so that one can access the spirit realm.

But, as the Serpent of Wisdom ‘promised’ Eve she would open her spiritual eyes and be granted eternal life as a god if she disobeyed the Eternal, it was an empty promise and remains so, whatever the conditions or allusions added to give it sparkle and shine – Genesis 3:4-5 (refer article: DEATH: A Dead End or a New Beginning?)

Before we discuss the pineal gland and its association with the third eye, it is interesting to note the related subject of Aum (or Om) which is said to represent the most primordial sound vibration of the Universe. It is a basic mantra in Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism and Jainism. The syllable Om (or Ohm) was the original, holy sound emanation, predating the Universe and the herald of the birth, life, death and rebirth process. According to Hinduism, Brahma was the single entity in existence and as the Creator, thought, ‘to become many’.

Yoga practitioners chant the sound Om to bring themselves ‘into harmonic resonance with the Infinite and connect with the divine’ in seeking ‘to move out of mental dissonance and chaos’ according to Ashley Turner. She further states:

‘OM is said to vibrate at 432 Hz [adds up to 9: 4+3+2 = 9], which is the natural musical pitch of the Universe, as opposed to 440 Hz, which is the frequency of most modern music. It is considered one of the most important spiritual symbols (pratima) and represents the sacred trinity in all its depictions

For instance: Body, Mind and Spirit; Father, Son and Holy Spirit; Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva; Saraswati, Lakshmi and Durga-Kali [refer Trinity, article: Arius, Alexander & Athanasius].

The syllable is also referred to as omkara, aumkara, and pranava in the Vedas. It is similar to: Hum, Amin, Amen [and] Shalom. The… symbol represents the meaning of AUM. The symbol OM visually consists of three curves, one semicircle, and a dot.’

The symbol, which looks a little like the number thirty-three, represents peace, tranquility and unity, as well as the past, present and the future and has become a popular jewellery piece particularly in feng shui. Om is a seed mantra and used in the activation of the crown chakra.

In Sanskrit, Aum means, ‘to sound out loudly’, while pranava means, ‘bow to the divine to the folded hands.’ In Hinduism, Om represents the union of three gods and in Jainism it signifies five supreme beings, yet one god, the ‘creator of Om’. ‘Television has three colour webs from which it produces millions of colours. Similarly, these three basic sounds of OM produce’ all the variety of expressions in creation.

A is for Brahma the Creator; U is for Vishnu the Preserver; and M is for Shiva, the destroyer. Similarly, A, represents the waking mind and our consciousness; U, our dream state and active unconscious; and M, deep sleep state and our latent unconscious. The Samadhi dot (Turiya) symbolises pure consciousness and is the silence that falls after Aum. The Maya crescent represents illusion and our experience in the external world.

The pineal gland is a small pine cone shaped object located deep between the cerebral hemispheres in the epithalamus. It is attached to the upper part of the thalamus near the roof of the third ventricle. A normal pineal gland appears as a small reddish-brown (or grey) pine nut shape and its normal size ranges between 10 and 14 mm, or a third of an inch. The gland is part of the endocrine system and assists in regulating melatonin; a chemical produced to help the body sleep at night. Its function is to govern the production of hormones, while maintaining the circadian rhythm of our sleep/wake cycle.

What is the pineal gland? Healthglade:

‘To the present day, the functions of the pineal gland are not fully understood. Current knowledge indicates that by secretion of melatonin, the pineal gland plays an important role in the regulation of the sleep-wake cycle and of reproductive function (e.g. onset of puberty), with melatonin also acting as a neuroprotector or antioxidant.

The pineal gland translates the rhythmic cycles of night and day encoded by the retina into hormonal signals that are transmitted to the rest of the neuronal system in the form of serotonin and melatonin synthesis and release. The pineal gland secretes the hormone melatonin in response to changing light conditions outside the body. Impulses originating in the retinas of the eyes are conducted along a complex pathway that eventually reaches the pineal gland. Melatonin secretion is suppressed during the day and increases in the dark of night.

Melatonin may help to regulate circadian rhythms. Circadian rhythms are patterns of repeated activity associated with the environmental cycles of day and night, including the sleep-wake cycle. The fact that melatonin secretion responds to day length may explain why traveling across several time zones produces the temporary insomnia of jet lag. The sleep-wake cycle is the most obvious circadian rhythm in humans.

It is largely controlled by the pattern of daylight and night, but under laboratory conditions of constant light or dark, the human body eventually follows an approximately 25-hour cycle – the exact same as on the planet Mars’ – refer Chapter XXII Alpha & Omega.

‘Previous studies have suggested a decline of melatonin secretion with age and an association between melatonin decrease and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s disease. The amount of uncalcified pineal tissue was shown to predict total melatonin excretion with lack of melatonin being hypothesized to result from pineal gland calcification [the addition of Fluoride in tap water and toothpaste, contributes to calcification of the pineal gland].

Calcification of pineal region tumors is very common… Pineal gland calcifications, also referred to as “brain sand”, involves the development of hydroxyapatite deposits and is very common with a reported prevalence of approximately 68-75% in adults. In all population groups, calcification of the pineal gland was found to increase with age. Pineal gland calcification is frequently detected on computed tomography (CT) scans… Recent years have witnessed an increasing interest in studies regarding the impact of pineal gland calcifications on decreased secretory activity of the gland and on specific pathological entities such as Alzheimer’s disease.

Mahlberg et al. suggested, that pineal gland calcification was significantly higher in patients with Alzheimer’s disease compared to others types of cognitive impairment and that pineal gland calcifications might contribute to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease by reflecting a reduced level of crystallization inhibitors…’

What is the Pineal Gland’s Function and How to Amplify It, Mindbliss – emphasis mine:

‘[The pineal gland] has long been associated with the idea of the “third eye”, which is a spiritual symbol of all-knowing according to yoga philosophy and often perceived as a gateway for the soul’s liberation. In his book Kundalini Tantra, Swami Satyananda Saraswati says:

“It has also been called ‘the eye of intuition’, and it is the doorway through which the individual enters the astral and psychic dimension of consciousness. Perhaps the most common name for this chakra is “the third eye”, and the mystical traditions of every age and culture make abundant references to it. It is portrayed as a psychic eye located midway between the two physical eyes and it looks inward instead of outward.”

‘The idea of the third eye has also floated around science circles previously, as some believe the pineal gland is what has been leftover in the human brain of an actual, physical third eye which we eventually evolved out of. Swami Satyananda Saraswati…

“The pineal gland acts as a lock on the pituitary. As long as the pineal gland is healthy, the functions of the pituitary are controlled. However, in most of us, the pineal gland started to degenerate when we reached the age of eight, nine or ten. Then the pituitary began to function and to secrete various hormones which instigated our sexual consciousness, our sensuality and worldly personality. At this time, we began to lose touch with our spiritual heritage.”

‘The pituitary gland is a gland that acts as a master gland, controlling many of the hormonal functions in the body. It is located in the hypothalamus in the brain, which also contributes to our sleep/wake patterns. This means the pituitary and pineal gland work together for proper function. Imbalances in the pineal gland (and pituitary) can lead to sleep disturbances and problems with your sleep/wake cycle. Therefore, this tiny, little gland plays a bigger role in our lives than previously thought!

In addition to the physiological role the pineal gland plays in the body, it is also commonly associated with spiritual thought and mystical experiences. Ancient sages and mystics believed this area of the body to be the space for ascension and enlightenment through the brain/body. It is perceived as a bridge between our inner and outer worlds, as well as to a connection to something beyond what we know to exist, to a higher state of consciousness… now that it has been proven that melatonin is in part regulated by the pineal gland, it does lend credibility to the fact that increased melatonin production can produce transcendent or mystical experiences during a waking state such as meditation through its function as a psychotropic [hallucinogenic] chemical.

Outside the realm of science, the pineal gland is associated with the sixth chakra, called ajna or the “third eye” center located between your eyebrows (essentially deep back in your brain). The ancient yogis who wrote The Vedas in India between 1500-500 B.C. outlined a long time ago these physiological and psychic energy pathways that run through the body as a map we can still use today to better understand ourselves. When you strengthen and activate the third eye, you awaken intuition and inner wisdom on the path to Self-Realization.

It is the second to last step before reaching total enlightenment (according to yoga philosophy, which actually occurs through the crown of the head). Psychic energy is said to accumulate in this area of the brain and body. However, in the grand scheme of the world, when this center is active and open, you can better understand your role in life and the various signs and synchronicities that occur and point you in the right direction.

Symbolically, the third eye represents union on the path to cosmic consciousness, divine wisdom, inner knowing, and intuition. This is the place where the ego is left behind and the concept of duality begins to unwind in order to embrace unity or the concept of oneness.’

“When we begin to see each other through what the metaphysician calls, the third eye, we begin to know each other on a level that is beyond what our physical eyes can see” ~ Marianne Williamson

‘There are some telltale signs that your pineal gland is healthy as you activate your third eye center.

Signs You are Amplifying Your Third Eye

You find deeper meaning in the events that occur in your life
You understand that physical reality is a manifestation of duality, and your soul seeks to be liberated from this duality
You never feel alone, but instead feel connected to all things, animate and inanimate
You feel the vibration and rhythm of everything around you
Your senses are heightened (touch, taste, smell, hearing, sight)
You begin to see and feel your own energy body and others as well
You identify less with your ego sense
Negative emotions such as anger, greed, envy, and lust begin to disappear’

Associated with the Third Eye, is the All-Seeing Eye. The symbol of the number three is a triangle; specifically, an equilateral triangle inside a circle. It is an arcane occult symbol dating back to very ancient civilisations. Alice Bailey of the Lucis Trust states that the coming New World Order is best symbolised by a triangle within a circle, with a dot inside the triangle. The dot (or point) symbolises the ruler of the spirit world, Sanat, an anagram for Satan. Bailey says that Sanat is the entity who at the appointed time, will emerge to rule the Earth and humanity.

Satan is clearly represented in the Illuminati symbol the Eye of Providence, or the All-Seeing Eye. It is a symbol rooted deeply in Masonic tradition and ritual. It is typically depicted as a single eye – the eye of Horus – placed centrally inside a triangle or pyramid and enhanced using beams of light, in Illumination – refer articles: Belphegor; and The Pyramid Complexity.

The eye also represents the Serpent of Wisdom, the powerful, ever-present, all seeing one.

Theresa Ibis (Article: Thoth), founder of the Universal Kabbalah Network, says: “From spirals, to circles (Article: Monoliths of the Nephilim), to triangles, to squares and where these things manifest themselves, and why those are the best patterns for nature to follow, and how that we can use those patterns as gates and keys within our own soul, and open up energies to flow through us that we would like to be working with. The triangle often represents a trinity, it represents spirit, so if we want to connect with spirit, we can imagine our head being immersed in a golden pyramid of light”.

Triangle inside Circle Occult Illuminati Symbol, Healthglade – emphasis mine:

‘The Rosicrucians are another ancient movement heavily involved in the triangle inside the circle symbolism. Their manuals refer to it as the “Symbol of Creation”, with the only difference being that the circle is represented in the form of a serpent swallowing its own tail. The serpent is known as Nehushstan, and is mentioned in the Bible in 2 Kings 18:4 as the bronze serpent which the Israelites worshipped and made religious offerings to.

The serpent is also referred to as Ouroboros, and can be found in both the Ancient Greek and Egyptian cultures, as well as practices such as Gnosticism, Hermeticism, Alchemy, and Kundalini Yoga’ – refer Chapter XXII Alpha & Omega.

‘The infiltration of the Christian religion by satanic and occult practices is well known.

The Catholic churches are chock full of symbolism, including the all-seeing eye, circumscribed triangle, or triangle within an arch, and even modern churches such as the Seventh Day Adventists (Article: The Seven Churches – A Message for the Church of God in the Latter Days) have also been overtaken by these symbol proliferators.’

‘One of the main agendas of the Illuminati is to proliferate the use of occult symbols and spread them throughout our daily lives.

This plan is discrete, and with the general public not knowing the true meanings of these symbols, it is an easy plan for them to promote and worship Satan without facing opposition. One of their favourite places to put these images is on government or official logos, where they will be recognised and acknowledged by the public as a symbol of authority and domination over their lives’ – Article: The Establishment: Who are they… What do they want?

‘Alcoholics Anonymous is a well known Illuminati front organisation, so it comes as no surprise that they would adopt an Illuminati symbol to depict themselves.

Their description and reasoning for selection of the symbol to represent them [soun[s] very much like the making of a satanic ritual… The Alcoholics Anonymous organisation also acknowledged the symbols origins in ancient times and cultures… In addition… the symbol can also be found in seemingly innocuous locations, such as shown below on the monitoring well, and has even been known to appear in crop circles in the United Kingdom.’

‘Another popular modern-day movement to have adopted this symbolism is the homosexuality movement, and many members will be shocked to find out the origins of their symbol, the pink triangle inverted inside a green circle. They use it to symbolise alliance with gay rights and a space free from homophobia, unaware that the same space has been used for centuries by satanists in their rituals to conjure demons. Satanists refer to the triangle inside the circle as… the Thaumaturgic Triangle or Thaumaturgic Circle.

It is one of their primary tools used in demon conjuring ceremonies, as the triangle is the doorway to the spirit realm, and the circle is the boundary of the power. Some Satanists will even remove the circle in the hope of being possessed by the demons.

The triangle within a circle dominates the pages of Masonic literature, and is also used in their most popular imagery. It is said they refer to it as the symbol of the Kybalion, and have adopted it from Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece. Hermes just happens to be mentioned in the Bible in Acts 14:8-13, where the masses believed that Gods had come down in human form, and that Paul was in fact Hermes’ – refer article: Thoth.

The Kybalion was a book published in 1908 which was purported to be the essence of the teachings of Hermes Trismegistus, who was known by the ancient Egyptians as “The Great Great” and “Master of Masters”. It was published anonymously by a group under the pseudonym of “the Three Initiates”. One of the three is understood to be the infamous Freemason Paul Foster Case, and it is also interesting that the company involved in the printing, the Yogi Publication Society, listed its address [as] the Masonic Temple in Chicago in the US’ – Article: The Secret Covenant.

‘The Masonic Images shown above are as follows:

1. The Kybalion…
2. The Satanic Eye inside a triangle inside a circle, inside a Masonic compass
3. The front cover of a Royal Arch Mason magazine showing 2 examples of a triangle within a circle
4. The famous masonic imagery on the US $1 bill, featuring a triangle inside a circle
5. A Grand Master of Masons Medallion
6. A Masonic illustration from France, with the circle shown as a serpent swallowing its tail
7. The Masonic Triangle of Enlightenment, featuring the 33 degrees and the capstone pyramid
8. Photo of a section of a conference room of a Masonic hotel in London

The last photograph shown above certainly raises a lot of questions, as it appears to be deliberately placed for the performing of rituals. Indeed, many old hotels have Masonic origins, and you can find ceremonial rooms within them from the old days, which now function as conference rooms for both the public and their guests.

It is plain for all to see that the triangle within the circle is placed on a white painted block, and the floor is exactly as you will find in all the Freemasonry lodges worldwide, the black and white checkerboard which is used to represent dimensional travel. Perhaps the most interesting part is the inscription on the side of the white block, with the letters reading upwards (this reversal is a Satanic practice) as HAB HKT SKI.

High level freemason initiates know the meanings of these common markings, while the low level plebs may have no idea. HAB stands for Hiram Abiff, who is considered the Messiah of Freemasonry, and the Chief Architect of King Solomon’s Temple, the structure they repeatedly mention throughout their manifesto’ – Article: The Ark of God. ‘HKT stands for Hiram, King of Tyre, as it is mentioned in the Bible, and lastly SKI stands for Solomon the King himself’ – Article: Seventh Son of a Seventh Son.

‘Freemasons also perform the Hebrew practice Gematria, which is a numerological system of assigning a number to each letter. By applying this, we come up with a very interesting combination:

273 = HAB = Hiram Abiff = Ch V R M A B I V
640 = HKT = Hiram, King of Tyre = Ch V R M M L K Tz V R
465 = SKI = King Solomon = M L K sh L M H

1378 = 273 + 640 + 465

This number also happens to be the sum of every number from 1 to 52, and is a highly significant number to Freemasonry. It also happens to be the birth year of the founder of the Rosicrucian [Rose-Cross] movement, Christian Rosenkreutz, and the start of the Rosicrucian calendar.’

Freemasons, Rosicrucians and occultists are united in their revering of the number thirty-three above all other numbers. Recall Mount Hermon is at 33 degrees latitude and longitude, where the fallen dark angels came to Earth prior to the Flood – refer Chapter XXII Alpha & Omega; and Chapter XXXIV Dan: The Invisible Tribe.

Considerable war, murder and bloodshed, has occurred on or near this northern 33rd degree parallel. “If a life is taken close to the northern 33rd Parallel, this fits with the Masons’ demonic mythology in which they demonstrate their worldly power by spilling human blood at a predetermined locale” – Masons and Mystery At The 33rd Parallel, Day Williams.

Cutting Edge – emphasis mine:

‘When the Illuminati ended the First World War, they had just successfully completed the first war of Albert Pike’s occult plan to produce [the] Antichrist. Thus, they deliberately ended it on the 11th Month [of November], the 11th Day, at the 11th hour. The signing of the Armistice agreement was thus undergirded by three elevens! When the Illuminati assassinated President Kennedy, he was killed in the Masonic Dealey Plaza, the most powerful secret society in the world today to whom the number 11 is extremely important.

The Number 11 was a… powerful occult signature underlying these events. When they were successfully carried out, occultists the world over knew exactly what had happened and who had carried it out, and for the purpose of setting the stage for “Number 11” himself, Antichrist. Why is the number 11 important to the occultist? As Wescott explains, “… so 11 is the essence of all that is sinful, harmful, and imperfect.” [Ibid., p. 100] Thus, while 11 is very important, multiplication’s are also important, such as 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, and 99.

However, most importantly, Bible prophecy assigns the Number ’11’ to [the] Antichrist in Daniel 7:8… “I considered the (10) horns, and behold, there came up among them another horn, a little one (Antichrist)…” Bible scholars have always called Antichrist the “11th Horn”. Thus, this occult and Illuminist preoccupation with the Number 11 as they strive to produce their Antichrist, is dictated by Biblical prophecy concerning [the] Antichrist.

[Why]… the occult fascination with the number [33, and its extension, 333?]… Let us examine the power the Satanist believes resides in [these two numbers]. We shall quote from White Magic practitioner, Elizabeth van Buren, in her book, “The Secret of the Illuminati”, as she openly reveals Luciferian thought and values in her New Age book.’

“Thirty-three appears to be the most mysterious of numbers. It is found over and over again in the stories of the Bible and elsewhere. Jesus Christ was thirty-three when he was crucified; the first temple of Solomon stood for thirty-three years before being pillaged by King Shishak of Egypt; there are thirty-three symbols of the Masonic Order and one of their symbols depicts a double-headed eagle [symbol of the Holy Roman Empire] crowned with an equilateral triangle: inside of this is the number thirty-three.”

Van Buren continues:

“In the Vishnu-Purana Book 1, it states: These thirty-three divinities exist age after age, and their appearance and disappearance is in the same number as the sun sets and rises again. In the Tibetan Book of the Dead, it speaks of the thirty-three heavens ruled over by Indra and the thirty-three ruled over by Mara… The Temple of Solomon was a cube, measuring thirty-three and a third feet…’ – Article: The Ark of God.

‘Students of Numerology are well aware that numbers affect a person’s life. One’s name, place, and time of birth all have an influence on one’s physical, mental, and spiritual being. Each letter as [a] number has a certain vibratory effect… the picture produced by the various combinations gives an understanding of the character, karma, and potentialities of the person… in Spiritual Numerology, the numbers 11, 22, and 33 are the three ‘Master Numbers’, the highest being 33…

This highest of the master numbers was the age of the Master Initiate (Jesus) at his death, resurrection and ascension, giving more esoteric accents. The ’33’ symbolizes the highest spiritual conscious attainable by the human being. Christ lay in the tomb for three days after his crucifixion, a symbol for us of the steps man must take in order to be reborn. The number ‘333’ speaks of death, resurrection, and ascension.” (NOTE: Jesus’ ascension did not occur for 40 days after He arose)

Indeed, there is not death, as can be discerned clearly… There is only Change… The message… is that there is a balance which one can achieve by which one can escape from the wheel of change, from life to death. This balance can be found by becoming fully aware so that both worlds are equally real to one. This awareness is found when the third eye is fully opened, the eye the symbol of which is the number ’33’…

Each ‘3’ of the number ’33’ can be seen to be three-fold in the same way as a triangle has three sides: 3+3+3 = 9. In the temples of Atlantis and Egypt the candidate for initiation passed through nine degrees, or rather the three-fold three degrees, into the mysteries [there are purported to be nine dimensions in total between ourselves – the first three – and the Creator, with every other creature of the creation in between]. These degrees symbolized the re-entering of the womb in order, after the three times three months of gestation, to be reborn into the world of Spirit-consciousness.

How many have really understood the words: ‘Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God’. John 3:3.”

Van Buren is confirming the occultist endeavour: to shortcut the path offered by the Creator and seek to evade the process of death and resurrection – Acts 4:12. In attaining the highest spiritual consciousness through the number 33, one then seeks a direct transformation from physical to spiritual bypassing death, through the number 333. Notice that 333 is half the number of the Beast, 666; which alternatively is two times 333.

And who are the chief occultists aiming to bring this about? They are included in the secret societies which are led by ‘the powers that be’ who possess trillions of dollars and are all inextricably linked via their network of Freemasonry and other aligned cabals – refer articles: The Establishment: Who are they… What do they want?; and The Great Reset & the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

Whether they be Templars of old or Illuminati today, it makes no difference. The secret esoteric occultism they all adhere, goes farther back than with King Solomon of the United Kingdom of Israel or Hiram, king of Tyre, but rather to the antediluvian epoch which included Atlantis, the Nephilim, Evil Enoch, his father Cain and the precursor to all secret knowledge, the Seven Sacred Sciences – refer Chapter XXI The Incredible Identity, Origin & Destiny of Nimrod; Chapter XXII Alpha & Omega; Chapter XXXIV Dan: The Invisible Tribe; articles: Antartica: Secrets of the Lost Continent of Atlantis; and Na’amah.

With themselves, the evil elite aim to bring a select number of citizenry of the earth – after an attempted massive reduction of the world’s population, with Covid 19 just the beginning foray – so that they can initiate this process in earnest, with the opening of the Third Eye. It is an attempt to replicate the tower of Babel some nine thousand years ago and the Atlantis age some fifteen to twenty thousand years ago – according to an unconventional chronology.

It is the number 3 and its multiplications which symbolise and unlocks the process along a ‘spiritual’ path, in literally transmogrifying to physical ‘perfection’ and immortality.

Cutting Edge – emphasis mine:

‘The 20th Century was clearly the century in which God withdrew His restraining power enough so Satan could cause World Wars I and II to be fought exactly as the Guiding Spirit of Albert Pike revealed to him in 1870. The Second World War began in the year, 1939. The number, ’39’, is very special to the occultist, because it is formed by the multiplication of ‘3 and 13’.

The year 1939 adds up to a master number: 1+9+3+9 = 22.

‘The number ‘3’ symbolizes the Pagan Trinity, while ’13’ is the number of ultimate rebellion against God. However, World War II was made possible through the events of 1933 [also a master number year].

January 30, 1933 – Adolf Hitler was sworn in as Chancellor of Germany. Note that this date also forms a ‘333’… Adepts the world over considered Hitler to be the “immortal god-man” until they realized he had chosen the “Left-Hand” path, the Evil path. At that moment on, all White Magic occultists opposed Hitler mightily.

On March 3, 1933, the Federal Reserve Board and the New York Reserve Bank’s Governor Harrison had agreed that the Board would issue an order closing all the Federal Reserve Banks. New York Governor Herbert Lehman, at the urging of Governor Harrison, also agreed to proclaim an emergency bank holiday in New York, and a similar action was taken in Illinois.

One of President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s first official acts after taking office on Inauguration Day (Saturday, March 4, 1933), was to proclaim an emergency, three-day, nationwide banking holiday, signed and effective Monday, March 6. FDR was a member of the Ancient Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine… Shriners are 33rd degree Masons.’

Oddly, Roosevelt died near parallel 33.

‘Franklin Roosevelt… with Rosicrucian Churchill and pagan Josef Stalin… formed the “planetary triangle” of nations known as the Allies, that would oppose the “planetary triangle” of nations known as the Axis Powers – Germany, Italy, Japan. Thus, Roosevelt was sworn in during the 3rd month, 1933, thereby giving his inauguration an occult value of ‘333’, just like Hitler’s ascension to power… Thus, Satan had his men on both sides of the Atlantic: Black Magick Hitler and White Magic 33rd Degree Mason, Roosevelt. World War II was inevitable at this point.’

The United Nations flag divides the globe into thirty-three sections (above) and with a pentagram below

If one considers all events random, with no design or purpose, then many events become fantastically bizarre coincidences in the extreme when numbers are observed surrounding these events. For instance, in 1963 President John F Kennedy was shot and killed in Dealey Plaza in Dallas, Texas, near the 33rd Parallel. It occurred on the 11th month and the 22nd day. Eleven and twenty-two adding up to thirty-three.

The full date comprising 11.22.1963 adds up to 52, or 4 x 13. The word Dallas in numerology looks like this: 413311, with the same digits as the 4 x 13, it also adds up to 13 and contains the master numbers 33 and 11. What is also a fascinating though unrelated coincidence, is the fact that the name Kennedy in numerology looks like this: 2555547 – with double master number fives – remarkably adding up to 33. The Dealey Plaza is also the site of the first Masonic temple in Dallas and includes a Masonic obelisk.

Curiously, Kennedy’s brother Robert Kennedy was also assassinated on parallel 33, in the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles.

In the northern hemisphere, the 33rd parallel makes its way through other major United States cities such as Phoenix and the town of Roswell, an area known for its history with UFO related incidents. The Phoenix Lights reported by thousands of people in the skies above the city were one of the most massive UFO sightings in history, according to witnesses in two separate events.

The northern 33rd parallel is of note, for the predominance of the world’s wealth is stored north of its line. Major financial hubs north of the 33rd Parallel include London, New York, Frankfurt, Switzerland, Beijing, Seoul and Tokyo.

Yet conversely, most of this planet’s 8.2 billion people live south of the 33rd Parallel.

Further mystery surrounding parallel 33, includes the alleged first nuclear explosion in Alamogordo, New Mexico. It was the 33rd United States President Harry Truman, who targeted the two Japanese cities with nuclear bombs and both of these cities straddled the 33rd parallel – Article: Nuclear Nefariousness.

While on the African continent, in the town of Casablanca located in Morocco, a large square and hexagonal pyramidal construction are located on the 33rd parallel. If one travels along the 33rd parallel all the way to the Far East, the fabulous White Pyramid which is located about 60 miles southwest of X’ian can be observed. The Bermuda Triangle also has a mysterious connection to the 33rd Parallel.

In ancient Mesopotamia now modern-day Iraq, where the cradle of the Sumerian civilisation was located, is the place where the northern 33rd parallel acts as a junction for two great rivers, the Tigris and Euphrates. Baghdad is also located at latitude 33 ° 33’N and the palace of Saddam Hussein was built exactly on this position. The ancient city of Damascus in Syria also corresponds to that parallel.

In the Southern Hemisphere, both Cape Town in South Africa and Sydney in Australia correspond to the 33rd parallel south.

Cutting Edge:

‘One of the major historic facts is that the entire system of satanic lore germinated in Babylon which is located precisely on the 33rd Degree Parallel… Until the time of the [Assyrian] Empire, the center of power was south of the 33rd Degree, held by Egypt and Babylon.’

‘But, Greece and Rome began a movement of civilizations, where the center of power gravitated gradually northward. Since the reign of Sir Francis Bacon and Queen Elizabeth I (1590 – 1603), Rosicrucianism and Freemasonry have ruled England and Europe with an increasingly iron hand.

‘This is the society where the ultimate goal is that from “The Christ” on downward, all the peoples of the world still living after the “Cleansing Cycle” will so spiritually evolve… that they will attain immortality on earth.

This is the ultimate goal; unfortunately, to achieve it, a lot of people are going to have to die… [and a] tremendous amount of Witchcraft… where human blood has been planned to be shed in huge torrents… to achieve this utopian state…’

Addendum

An article from Ancient Code, entitled, We Are Surrounded by Masonic Symbols – How Modern Logos Are Linked To Secret Societies; reveals the depth of infiltration of the Establishment’s symbols innocuously inserted into widespread and famous everyday icons and logos. This presence is unsurprising, yet concerning and reveals just how mired society is in the snare of the powers that be – Article: The Establishment: Who are they… What do they want?

‘Beyond its immediate and obvious meaning, simple images become symbols carrying a connection between man and the principle they represent and from which they originate.’

Facebook is instantly recognisable as the world’s most famous social media website.

Gmail is likely the most used e-mail service in the world.

‘At first glance, it looks like a sealed envelope, but on a more meticulous inspection… the red lines (and the color used in the logo is not by chance) that cross and go through the folds form an “M”… Obviously, M stands for Mail… Yet Gmail’s logo has a stunning similarity with the classic masonic apron, a piece of cloth that is fastened to the body at waist height by means of a rope or ribbon. The Masonic Apron is steeped in spiritual and mystical meanings and is linked with Adam and Eve who wore aprons of fig leaves to hide their modesty’ – Genesis 3:7.
