THE UNIFYING COLOUR THEORY
- From 2010 - 2019 powerful studios pursued a unified art direction in their major releases according to the colours and themes of the Sephiroth
- The Sephiroth are the ten manifestations of the Infinite
- 2010 is 1+0 = 1 or Kether (White)
2011 is 1+1 = 2 or Chokmah (Grey)
2012 is 1+2 = 3 or Binah (Black) and so on - These colours and themes were displayed in the film in a variety of ways: poster, costume, set, lighting, colour grading, overall production design, story themes & characters
- The alchemical element of the relevant Sephira was present and represented the virtue of the film's hero
2010 - KETHER
(ONE, WHITE)
PERSEUS
CLASH OF TITANS 2010 (PERSEUS)
2011 - CHOKMAH
(TWO, GREY)
2012 - BINAH
(THREE, BLACK, LEAD)
2013 - CHESED
(FOUR, BLUE, TIN)
2014 - GEBURAH
(FIVE, RED, IRON)
2015 - TIFERETH
(SIX, YELLOW, GOLD ORE)
2016 - NETZACH
(SEVEN, GREEN, COPPER ORE)
7 Green Rays
2017 - HOD
(EIGHT, ORANGE, MERCURY)
2018 - YESOD
(NINE, PURPLE-INDIGO, SILVER)
2019 - MALKUTH
& THE ALCHEMICAL PROCESS
Unlike the other Sefirot in this scale Malkuth is attributed to four colours in clockwise order - citrine (yellow), olive (green), black, russet (red). Different diagrams of Malkuth represent this differently (see below for two examples). These colours ape the alchemical process: citrinatis, green lion, nigredo, rubedo.
ESOTERIC ANALYSIS - ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD
GREEN (OLIVE) PHASE
BLACK PHASE
CITRINE (YELLOW) PHASE
GREEN (OLIVE) PHASE
BLACK PHASE
RED/RUSSET PHASE
THE RUBEDO OF AD ASTRA, McBride
The collection above is very simplified and intended to give the reader only a taste. The Golden Dawn system of Qabalah is intricate and baroque and impenetrable to the passerby and more details are available to the interested in the esoteric analyses scattered throughout. A deeper analysis would include the paths between the Sefirot, potentially identifying certain films with the paths that link the years. It is highly likely that the colour system is more sophisticated and relies on these four scales of colour.
2020 AND BEYOND - THE QLIPHOTH
The countdown from 2010-2019 implied two alternatives for 2020 - a return to the Top of the Tree of Life or a further descent into the Tree of the Qliphoth, the Tree of Hell.
Imagine that from 2010-2019 we were watching the movie but from 2020 and beyond we are on the other side, the sitra achra, through the looking glass and inside the movie.
But which movie are we inside?
The cult movie meta theory (Apocalypse Squad working version) suggests that events are structured according to the scripts of cult movies:
- 2020 - Clash of the Titans
- 2021 - Rocky Horror Picture Show
- 2022 - A Clockwork Orange
- 2023 - Invasion of the Body Snatchers
- 2024 - Mad Max 3: Beyond the Thunderdome
- 2025 - Shock Treatment
- 2026 - Logan's Run
- 2027 - Bladerunner
- 2028 - Videodrome
- 2029 - Labyrinth
And God told his apprentices: I gave you a command to pray to the Lord for the mercy, the life, peace, health, salvation, the search, the leave and the forgiveness of the sins of God's children. The ones that pray they have mercy and they take good care of this holy place.
Dr Bill: Now where exactly are we going, exactly.
Gayle: Where the rainbow ends.
Dr Bill: Where the rainbow ends?
Gayle: Don't you want to go where the rainbow ends?
Dr Bill: Well now that depends where that is.
Gayle: Let's find out.

ReplyDeleteNo problem Pilar, thanks for reading. This is an update of the original post for those who are sharing it elsewhere. But this time in the correct order & enriched, with 2019 included, and all the other meta-theories we've been working on here - at least the diagrams anyway.
DeleteBeen absent a while (from the comments, that is).
ReplyDeleteNever forget this is a *man-made* process, therefore can be halted/reversed. There is no "Divine Hand" at work here, this is the machiavellian manipulation of a bunch of Hollywood producers. If they can die, their evil plans can die as well.
No. Producers are very replaceable and the spirits behind this are entirely divine in origin, as everything is technically divine in origin, even producers. It can be halted/reversed (and in fact, they, bizarrely, want it to be) but violence is not going to solve anything it is going to make it worse as it always does. Demons just re-spawn.
DeleteNon violent strategies:
1) Switch it off altogether - this is the easiest way of countering this aspect of the Demolition Team although its not such a good strategy if you want to stay aware. I was doing something else entirely from 2008-2017 so I completely missed all this and I only switched on to it because of three things a) Secret Sun's observation of orange in films in 2017 b) the sudden Lovecraft spamming from orbit (hated the player, loved his craft) and c) Twin Peaks: The Return where Lynch does the same as all these guys *put together* (i.e. the whole Tree of Life, the colours, numbers, symbols - everything) but ASCENDING & INTEGRATING rather than DESCENDING & DIVIDING. He showed us the way back to the White Lodge while everyone else was dragging us down to the Black Lodge. We're so divided now we are almost powdered.
A small basic example of what is an intricate & truly incredible working from an absolute master:
https://twinpeaksblog.com/2019/02/23/setting-the-stage-lucky-7-insurance-exteriors/
2) Seek out very low-budget indie stuff and support other art with your attention. Find places to watch, praise & encourage really independent work, even if it is weak overall. I like to search out the shittiest imaginable one star film studies project and find the good in it.
3) Countermagic:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KduxHuwwGDU&ab_channel=krypton77
The counter-magic to this is all so simple (these Japanese girls show you how to do it) that it makes me think (and I am pretty sure about that now) that they intend this to fail eventually anyway. But the problem here is a serious shortage of wizards at the moment. Those Japanese girls from Cabin in the Woods are organised in a way that puts the contemporary scene to shame. By the end of the decade though its groups like these that bring it all down, at least on the surface. I guarantee it. That's why they've put it in their ''Chokmah'' section, like ''Source Code''...
But the real problems with any of the above is that a lot of people are no longer in control of their will or critical thinking (together this is focus) and other stats are also seriously impaired. They are also very short on health & sanity points and railway & ship tickets. And in this sense TIKKUN remains the true answer right now.
Repair.
Oh, I wasn't suggesting violence. I was just pointing out that the best-laid plans of mortals such as ourselves usually turn out to be a futile joke.

What is TIKKUN? sorry my ignorance. ..
DeleteWhen God contracted himself in order to make room for creation divine light became captured in vessels (Sefiroth) some of which shattered because they could not contain the light (those below the Supernal Triad). This is called the Shevirat Ha Kelim (shattering of the vessels). Divine Light which is attached to the broken vessels (Qliphoth) is the cause of evil (entropy) and by repairing the vessels so they can contain the light you are helping to repair the world. (BTW this is another reason why the ''counter-magic'' we need to do is so obvious). In Lurianic Kabbalah you go about doing this repair work through the Partzufim which are personifications of the Sefiroth (this may have been somewhat realised in the UCT by their limited pool of ''actors''). These Partzufim can contain the light because they allow it to flow between them (dialogues between characters, the paths between the Sefiroth). You can see my own work with this concept in the Metabolism of Time (early sections of the Hermetic Lessons blog, but written way before that) and the ''Physiognomical Characters'' (Luria was said to be able to read a soul's ''karma'' by looking at their face). Its very similar to unblocking nadis i.e. untangling knots in your chakras - the knots can be genetic in origin or as a result of trauma, etc. Since even the people who were most advanced in the ''Rubedo'' were delivered a fresh-load of trauma by 20/21 it makes sense to repair if you can. But more broadly this is the task set before us by the Qliphoth ('20-'29) we have to repair the worlds.
Deletethank you so much for explaining. I'llread those articles soon.
DeleteIf these little "Hydra-things" are real, how does it fit into the narrative? Body Snatchers?
ReplyDeletehttps://newzworldtoday.com/watch-dr-franc-zalewski-discovers-tentacled-aluminum-based-lifeform-dubbed-the-thing-inside-covid-19-jab-vial-under-microscope/?fr=operanews
I don't know if they are real, it would be absolutely terrifying if they were and I guess that is the implication. Its clear we are heading towards Body Snatchers at some point its just how literal that I don't know. Canada is looking pretty far along the path now... How are you doing?

ReplyDeleteThank you for this post Blogos. Some questions:
ReplyDelete1. The Tree of the Qliphoth diagram (2020 onwards) - each of the Sephira has a word/phrase associated with it (Darkness 2020 Evil Winds, etc). Where do these words come from and what do they mean?
2. I'm fascinated with your idea that post 2020 the perspective has been shifted (by 180 degrees I guess you could say) and that we are now *inside* the movie. This is consistent with the *feeling* lots of people are having that there is something not quite right about most (or all) of the large-scale, ostensibly organic, "events" unfolding at this time. (For example, the recent killing of a British MP.) Do you have any thoughts why this perspective shift was introduced or what purpose it might serve? It seems to follow a pattern of generalized inversion happening at this time. It is definitely quite clear (to those who can see I suppose) that we are now in a timeline where everything is not as it seems and a "plan" is being effected. To what end, I'm not certain.
3. The Unifying Colour Theory...Is it possible that this is part of some much larger ritual/ceremony and that this Sephiroth/movie/colour connection is but the tip of some iceberg, perhaps the "user interface" for some other greater scheme?
4. It's clear now *what* the 2010-2019 walk down the Tree of Life was counting down to (or at least some part of it is clear). AFAI can tell this new walk down the Qliphoth seems to be counting down (again) to something else (2030?) Any guesses what that might be?
1. They are words either taken directly from the name of the demon of that Qlipha or words that are specifically connected to that demon (often this is the same thing). The Qlipha of Netzach (2023) the demon(s) are ''the ravens of dispersion'' A'arab Zaraq or ''ravens of the burning god'' Harab Serapel - I am not a demonologist and had to make some choices from various competing Qliphoths in the lore (a few minor variations of the Tree of Hell) to produce this so I apologise in advance for any errors, minor or otherwise. Darkness and Evil Winds are associated with Lilith as is pestilence. There is an arrangement of the Qliphoth where Lilith rules the Qliphoth of Malkuth AND Yesod but I went with Gamaliel for Qlipha of Yesod and am reading it as the (trans)fusion or coition of Lilith and Samael.
DeleteThis is one important tool for defence:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incantation_bowl
Archangel Raphael is the go-to if you get in a tricky position
Frater Acher's resource is useful:
https://theomagica.com/on-the-nature-of-the-qlippoth
Next up is Samael alone (i.e. Alex deLarge from ACO, an ''evil Mercury'' in that it is the Qlipha of Hod)
2. So the Qliphoth is called ''The Other Side'' or Sitra Achra, this connects to us being on the ''other side'' of the screen. There *is* something else Kubrickesque going on here for sure. We can get a LOT deeper into this with one of the meta-theories but its not been as well tested as others so I put it out there just as food for thought. The mirror image meta theory, if you will, suggests that the (themes of the) movies in the Sefirothic (?) year are mirrored in the Qliphothic year. So in 2021 we have seen the themes of 2018 movies i.e. Annihilation (no explanation necessary), Ready Player One (Gamestop debacle, FB's metaverse), Mary Poppins (home schooling...). 2022 will be 2017, 2023 will be 2016 etc. That's too much of a head fuck for a lot of people (although it is logical) but it does suggest an interesting tie in between Inception (& Insidious) for 2029 our year of the ''Labyrinth''. The rigid structuring of 2021 has become incredibly obvious and again, a lot of the productions that have come out (Harry-Meghan is the most obvious in this) needed to already be in production. The split within the royals is staged. Both brothers become ''enviro-activists'' and bury the hatchet for the sake of the planet. Etc. The obviousness of the structure is one of the reasons why I think this is ultimately intended to fail. More on tactical failure later on. There are so many levels to ''the plan'' some more plausible than others. If you want to stick to plausible then this is all a necessary security overhaul (great reset) because of a) biosecurity in a world of CRISPR, MDR, climate change released organisms, etc b) climate security c) digital security d) currency security and e) space security. I think one of the outcomes we are building towards is the (public) revealing of human cloning in 2029 (thus all the doubling). We're in a process of socially engineering the public to accept (or reject...) this whole swathe of tech. In terms of why the shift - well they've been mesmerising the world for ten years and now the people are just doing what they are told so I mean it is working, their method that is.
3. Yes. I think this is the structure of an ''Outer Temple'' not the inner orders. The Kircher Tree from which the Golden Dawn system is derived is very broken/faulty from a logical perspective. I use my own ''Saadia'' arrangement named after Saadia Gaon. I very much doubt Kircher is used on higher/deeper levels. Numbers and letters will have more importance there. I would imagine the Graeco-Roman stuff dies off as well and it becomes more and more Egyptian, then Sumerian the deeper in you get. Maybe even Enochian... which is definitely above my pay grade. But I think colours is something your average Netflixomancer can get and its something we know has a powerful influence of the audience. User interface is a good analogy perhaps... although the users are getting used by that interface rather than the other way around.
Delete4. Public cloning. I think this will be the major event of 2029. First official human clone & all that means and will reveal about ''the soul''. If they go even quicker maybe even first official human-animal hybrid. They already exist in DUMBS etc but first official one. Acceptance of gene editing with the vaccine is a major step in this direction. I mentioned many many posts ago how they would follow this up with saying these kind of vaccines can cure cancer. We are already seeing the malaria one getting going now. I think a major part of the harrowing or winnowing that is happening is that you can't just roll out this advanced tech because of the population problems it would cause forget the social reactions.
Demolition Team will be finished Dec 2029. Then we will begin building the New Jerusalem.
I think you're an optimist, viewing these guys as "altruistically" evil. What if they just want to kill off almost 7.5 billion people as a mass sacrifice, so that the remaining 500 million become their mind-controlled slaves. Everything about the Elite wreaks of returning to the feudal system, to the dark ages.
ReplyDeleteThe government employs all sorts of merciless bastards in the name of defense. If you believe in what they are defending then they are good from your perspective. Normal people use this reasoning to justify all the horrors that our militaries conduct in our name on a regular basis in developing countries. Now *they* are the collateral damage in this post-modern war maybe they will feel differently about war in general. Who knows?
DeleteIf the climate or other problems such as food and energy are genuine then from their perspective other options may no longer be possible. They've seen the grim data and the New World Order need you sterile, dead, gay or European ;-) Ultimately this may be about maintaining their hierarchy as we cross into the Green future but their vision is eco-capitalism at heart and not eco-socialism i.e. where we all help each other solve the problem in collective education about our relationship with nature. I agree it ends in an eco-feudal system of high tech peasants paying energy tithes. 2030+ will be that, until late 30s.
*If* you believe the climate data it may have been possible to solve this problem with the tactical nuking of some volcanoes and some stringent energy rationing, i.e. turning all the lights off at 9pm or banning driving on a Friday with the public fully educated about what we were doing. Were people going to do that willingly? No. How would we have policed it? No way to do that. Covid has achieved the same end and they have run the advertising for climate change during the whole ride so again I think this is a plausible explanation for what they are up to. If this is the case they are not altruistically evil because the way they are doing it is about maintaining their own hold over power in a very secretive, truly weird way. I also think as the gene-tech is leaked out over the next decade creepier and still creepier things are going to creep into view and they want us to get weirded out by it. IN the end I think WE demand the banning of genetech, life extension, WE choose the high tech peasant solar punk future. That tech then stays with the breakaway civ.
If we go further down the rabbit hole then this was all happening for/because Saturn because of the astro-timing, we have sacrificed *time* for the lives of the *old*, because of a *plague*. The players play, bent *gargantuan* over the playing field.
There is that Cabin in the Woods sweet-spot between these two very different readings and we've talked about it before *if* there is a giant octopus-squid demon that demands sacrifice in the depths of our planet through some kind of mad games and it cannot be defeated but only appeased would it be better to live and make sacrifice or be obliterated as a species?
But further rabbit holes beckon, forget the world, I am beginning to worry about the very fabric of the time-space continuum! :-)
Blogos, here are a couple of terms you have used more than once. It would be great if you could describe what they mean:
ReplyDelete- Demolition Team
- New Jerusalem
I have also heard you mention "Enochian" in the comments a few times. In each case you seem to have a sense of reverence or respect towards it. Could you say a few words what it means (to you) and why you feel about it as you do.
Many thanks.
Demolition Team refers to whoever is behind this descent and overhaul, I guess.
Deletehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBfGf7aBgAA&ab_channel=JUPITer
New Jerusalem, for me, means the eco-feudal society (utopian for some) it seems to me we will begin to construct/transform into around 2030 (after a harsh decade of systems collapse, etc) and its just riffing off the Revelations stuff that is constantly being signalled as well.
Enochian is the legendary system of magic developed through angelic contact by Dr John Dee and Edward Kelley. Its widely respected as one of the most complex and advanced magical systems out there and has a reputation for producing startling results. Its beyond my experience and I do not practice this system. I am assuming that the language (code) used in the ''inner temple'' may not even be a human language and just suggested Enochian as a possibility. Enochian is possibly connected to Renaissance spycraft as well.
This color theory is fascinating and sort of hard to grasp. I’ve got a few thoughts, and I hope you won’t mind if they’re inaccurate or irrelevant. I’m trying to understand, and “play along” at the same time.
ReplyDeleteMaybe each year is not only a movie, but a song as well. 2021 Sympathy for the Devil by The Rolling Stones; 2022 The End by The Doors.
Since Samael is likened to a snake, and Lilith to a bird, does that make them (and Baphomet?) a kind of inverted Quetzalcoatl?
The Astroworld stage looked a lot like a Cross of Leviathan if you were to replace the portal (to the abyss?) with an infinity sign. There were eyes all over the show and its posters. In all, it seemed like a lot of Samael signaling perhaps. Lilith too, what with the rumors of poisoning.
You mentioned entropy. Could a portal maybe represent a way to “refresh” the closed system of Earth in order to reduce entropy and make more Work possible? Or more prosaically, to open people’s minds to weird stuff so they’ll change their behavior.
Great blog, thanks for sharing these ideas and explaining them so thoroughly.
I don't know but anything is possible at this point. I'll certainly be brushing up on my Beethoven for 2022.
Delete2022 actually looks to be 21st Century Schizoid Man.
ReplyDeleteBeethoven, as a hearing impaired composer of arguable ethnic heritage who died after a months long unknown illness, brings quite a lot to the table in terms of possible associations for the year ahead. His autopsy alone could easily keep a person busy reading for weeks.
Great tune - I'm curious how do you suppose this theory, the cult movie theory, applies to the music. Would you suggest they are dividing the year up according it? Would love some supporting examples for how this would work?
DeleteDo you mean the whole album?
DeleteWhile reading one of your early posts about RHPS, it popped into my head that this, then upcoming, year of 2021 could reflect the themes within Sympathy for the Devil. A few times during the year I’ve checked back into the idea and found that it holds up to my satisfaction. It’s a bit tedious to go into specifics, but I’ll put together a post within the next couple of days which hopefully won’t be too boring or outright nuts.
ReplyDeleteI don’t think anything is necessarily structured according to any song, but the overall themes may be reflected throughout the year. One song, not the entire album, although a more diligent perusal could prove otherwise. Of course, one song is part of an album and a band’s entire work, so those connections do exist.
Cinema requires a great deal of planning and careful execution, while music seems to work on different principles and affect the psyche on maybe a more primal level. So while a movie might be a blueprint, a song could be more sketch on the back of a napkin.
Organization isn’t my forte, but here goes.
ReplyDeleteRolling Stones - it’s been said that more people planned to move in 2021 than in 2020. Lately, Belarus has been accused of weaponizing migrants. Just a couple of days ago a truck crash killed 55 migrants in southern Mexico.
Beggar’s Banquet - this year the narrative has continued that unemployment benefits are too high and that’s why businesses were unable to hire enough staff. Mortgage rates hit an all-time low of 2.65% on January 7. Now that the year is wrapping up, eviction moratoriums are being ended by various courts. Food stamp benefits saw an historic increase in October.
Man of wealth and taste - Billionaire Space Race, new art to replace the old monuments- one statue is actually going to be melted and turned into something new.
I’ve been around for a long, long year - many efforts this year to legitimize the oldest profession on behalf of the most oppressed.
Stole many a man’s soul and faith - religion to no longer excuse a failure to rejoice in lifestyles one fundamentally disagrees with, Follow the Science, much talk of Mark of the Beast re Covid
Had his moment of doubt and pain - Richard R. Lavigne, Robert McWilliams, Izuchukwu Anoloba, Richard Daschbach, number of US Christians at or near an all-time low
Washed his hands and sealed his fate - rise in, how to say, “it’s not me who wants this, I’m just following the rules/guidance/consensus/right side of history.”
Hope you guessed my name - Comairnity “legally distinct,” variants started getting Greek letter names 2021, California becomes first state to require colleges to use certain students’ chosen names, administration calls unruly parents terrorists, dictionary definitions of “vaccine,” “anti-vaxer,” “woman” changed, The Lancet calls women “bodies with vaginas.”
But what’s puzzling you is the nature of my game - doubts rising over vaccine’s ability to prevent transmission, serious disease, and whether or not it causes death from causes other than Covid or even enhances a person’s likelihood of contracting new variants; Pfizer notes not to be released for something like 50-70 years.
Altemont - Astroworld
Etc. etc.
I probably shouldn’t be so entertained by looking for parallels between a song and current events, but it really is fun in a weird way. That’s it though, just entertainment.
I keep trying to post notes on King Crimson, but nothing happens when I hit “Publish.”
DeleteI’ll work on condensing it somewhat and try again in a few days or something. If the settings have been changed so comments are no longer auto-approved, sorry for clogging the queue. You can delete those pending comments.
Turns out it’s a lot more difficult to articulate why or how things could relate in the future than to lazily post past instances of possible parallels. Anyway, if this was a novel (which is the easiest way for me to relate to current events) I might expect to see 2022 themes of:
ReplyDeleteKing Crimson - blood (pacts, shed, disease); authoritarianism (rising, anti, crypto); demons (psychological, supernatural, othering)
In the court of. . . - judicial matters, jesters, fawning, etiquette, intrigue
21st Century Schizoid Man - a growing disconnect between factions, words and actions, competing versions of shared reality.
Weaponization of mental health concerns paired with manipulation of perception.
Fences - disruption of food supply esp animal protein, limiting of human mobility, ideological fences ie loyalty tests.
Enforced non-materialism whether through disrupted supply lines, robbery flash mobs, social pressure, or new tax policies.
Compelled words and behavior - people acting as vessels for someone else’s will.
Increased medicalization of the masses, baiting the hook with fantastical promises.
Death seed - either environmental manipulation like blocking the sun or sequestering so much CO2 plants won’t grow, genetically engineering dangerous elements into food plants, pushing a GMO revolution on farmers to make vassals of them, or planting ever more far-fetched ideas into the population.
