Saucers of the Illuminati
#21
Angelology, by Danielle Trusonni, is a novel that has received rave reviews from the likes of the New York Times "Book Review" and has been optioned by Will Smith for very big bucks.

It's right out of Dan Brown, but -- relatively speaking -- literate and thought-provoking.

In terms of our shared interests and discussions is Trusonni's fictional nomination of the Nephilim -- the offspring of fallen angels and humans -- to the collective role commonly played by the Illuminati or Masons or Dixons or ...

She has them marrying into the most powerful European families and wresting control of human destiny. And her Nephilim are the "giants" of our mythology.

Or is it mythology?

Spiritual conspiracy theory has found a public voice -- and a damn powerful one at that. This books warrants our attention.

It's all very smartly done.

I think we have it here on the forum in the books section. I know we have something from Quigley there.

That's has to be one on my get list then Charlie. The whole subject of the Nephilim is an intriguing one imo, and the concept of the powerful European families you mention seems to strike a chord - especially when we read articles by Joel van den Reijden and others (the Dutroux Affair and the Establishment players involved)

PS, never let it be said I'm not a compulsive beast. I've just bought it!

And a note for Helen. Even though it didn't rain, I read the essay on the Cults of Cthulhu last nigh (and am part way through the Parker Ryan piece too). It completely ghasts my flabber why anyone would wish to revert to those apparent times of pre-history when bloody, dripping chaos such as this was the order of the day. But they do. It's sheer madness.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.

While you're in a buying frenzy, David, you might consider The Mind Parasites, by Colin Wilson.

This homage to Lovecraft marries the Cthulhu mythos to traditional science fiction conceits.

And its "explanation" of the source of human misery is ... acid flashback time ... cosmic, man.

Thanks Charlie.

Oddly enough, the Parker Ryan .pdf that Helen linked discussed Colin Wilson briefly, albeit not in a particularly good light so far as his scholarly abilities were concerned re Lovecraft. I was, however, quite impressed with Ryan's ability. I read some of Wilson's books thirty odd years ago but frankly haven't remembered much about them now.

But then I don't remember much of anything after the first 2 bottles of Beaune...

Two bottles?

Who has the time?

I was remiss in not noting that The Mind Parasites is a novel.

Is Mind Parasites the alternate title for Space Vampires? I read the latter but it didn't strike me as deeply Lovecraftian in any way, although I know Colin Wilson even authored his own version of the Necronomicon so he is presumably a fan of some sort. His Occult was very good imho, much better than his science fiction vampire story, but I could never finish his Philosopher's Stone.

On nephilim and angels, it's interesting to note the appearance of giants in Britain in the time set before the arrival of the Trojans in I think it was Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniæ, the Cyclops in Homer and Tartarus, "an abyss under Hades where the Titans were imprisoned, Latin, from Greek Tartaros, of obscure origin," which is probably cognate, imho, with the Tartaro giant cycle in Basque legend, see http://www.sacred-texts.com/neu/basque/bl/index.htm ... There is a regal connexion, just as there is an aristocratic connexion in Peter Levenda's version of Andrija Puharich's The Nine.

I think Springmeier talks about this sort of unholy alliance between people and demonic forces in Bloodlines, doesn't he? Something about demonic alien vibrations becoming encoded in the genetics of certain families...

On the return to barbarity, I'm not sure Lovecraft saw it that way, he was probably more interested in the idea of escaping the confines of time. He managed to escape the real barbarity in any case, because he died in 1937, before we learned what modern people are fully capable of doing to one another. Or maybe I didn't understand David's point precisely.

No.

By the way, I live less than a mile from Lovecraft's Providence home at 10 Barnes Street and about three miles from his last resting place in Swan Point Cemetary.

Helen - be careful with Springmeier. He's a dangerous man.

Last time I heard anything, he'd dumped his "Monarch marionette" Cisco Wheeler, and was allegedly in a federal witness programme about to testify with regard to armed robberies by a far right, false flag, anti-abortion, "christian patriot" group calling themselves the "Army of God".

Also, nearly every word of Springmeier's was rubbish he'd stolen and misunderstood.

Charles, I guess he also lived at 454 Angell Street, but the numbers might have changed. Is there much Lovecraft tourism these days? He seems to be getting more and more popular.

Thanks, Jan. I never trusted Fritz or his methods.
