Heliofant's I, Pet Goat II is a Relevant Revelation

On June 25^th, 2012, a company called Heliofant released a video titled I, Pet Goat II. The film is at once artistic and revelatory. Potently prophetic, it may easily rest beside St. John’s Apocalypse or William Blake’s America: A Prophecy as provocative, portentous, and easily assimilable. It is a symbolically opulent portrayal of our collective struggles past and present, as well as the real hope that is our future as humans on this planet.

The video’s true meaning and message is found in its title and the name of the production company. Heliofant is simply the Sun as Teacher, or the Solar Logos as a revealer of the mysteries. The word Heliofant is a combination of the names Helios (Greek personification of the Sun) and Hierophant (interpreter of arcane teachings). The Sun truly is our great guru, and its story is our own, for as the Sun travels through the ages of the zodiac, it expresses through its great solar body, comprising all those spheres and their families that orbit under its influence, a truth. That truth need remain unspoken, for if we give it form it becomes limited, transient, and loses its meaning.

By the Tarot, the Hierophant is associated with the Hebrew letter vav, whose numerical value is 6. As the third letter of the Tetragrammaton, vav is associated with the sephirah Tiphareth, the sphere of the Sun. All these connections further validate our understanding of Sol as instructor. The instruction that the Heliofant imparts is contained in this video I, Pet Goat II. The video’s title, I, Pet Goat II creates the context, not only for the video’s scope, but also its depth.

Firstly, beyond the fact that George W. Bush read the children’s book, The Pet Goat to elementary schoolchildren during the destruction of the Twin Towers on 9/11, we must examine the symbolism of the goat and its relationship to the Heliofant. Tarot Key 15, The Devil, portrays a goat-headed monster having enslaved a man and a woman. This entity is also known as Baphomet. If one examines, using a conservative Tarot deck, the Hierophant and The Devil keys, one will note many similarities as the two serve as polar opposites with the same end in view.

The Hierophant addresses two devotees, namely wisdom and desire, with a specific hand mudra that says, “What you see with your eyes is only a portion of all there is.” In his left hand he holds a staff with a map of the four Qabalistic worlds atop it. The Hierophant possesses and imparts to the disciplined a full disclosure of the nature of reality.

The Devil holds bound two slaves, namely intellect and instinct. He holds his right hand in a manner that says, “What you see with your eyes is all there is.” In his left hand he holds a torch, burning with the fire of unfettered lust. The Devil is an expression of the nefesh, the animal, lowest, and most expendable of the five human souls.

The Goat of Mendes is symbolized by a pentagram turned on its head. Two horns, two ears, and the goatee fit into the upside down five-pointed star, which represents the higher faculties of mankind enslaved to those instincts associated with the animal soul. The reduction of humanity en masse to units of life-force energy to be utilized by the power-elite is the miserable message of The Pet Goat. This commodification of humanity is clearly demonstrated by the bar code on the captive goat’s brow. Later in the video, the Christ figure wears an eye on his brow, demonstrating mastery and articulation instead of slavery.

Secondly, having established the meaning behind the goat-prisoner or “pet goat” imagery in the title and opening of the video, we may address the relevance of “I”. “I” is the eternal witness that is our true identity. The problem at hand is that any thing we attach this “I” to is ultimately illusory. Moreover, to attach this “I” to The Pet Goat creates great suffering, for here the creator itself becomes a sacrificial lamb at the behest of those most nefarious aspects of its own creation.

To the extent that any of us allow ourselves to be reduced to commodified life-force is the extent to which we suspend our divinity and roles as centers of expression for the primal will to good. To the extent that we are scapegoats, we forget our sovereignty, our spiritual autonomy, and ultimately our birthright as rulers of the universe. 

So “I, Pet Goat” is the reason we suffer as people on this planet. It is our misidentification with the life-force and the life-urge alone that limits our vast potential. Our suffering comes from knowing that we are more than batteries, more than sacrifice, and more than commodity, and not living in that high state. We are often just as fallen as the angels that exploit us.

Thirdly, the distinction of sequel in the title as “II” connotes not only that these are events following 9/11, but that the sense of “other” or “two” or “twin towers”, (hence “II”), is just as delusional, in light of our true identity as “I” as the misidentification with The Pet Goat. We are not two. We are one. There is no subject. There is no object. There is ultimately only I. As Isaiah 45:5 says, “I am the LORD, and there is none else…”

But alas, a vast portion of humanity is indeed “I” identified with The Pet Goat and fixated on “other” and “outside”, and this hypnotic trance allows for the puppetry and manipulation that eerily begins the video.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. (Ephesians 6:12)

George W. Bush is portrayed as a creepy, tap dancing marionette whose erratic contortions add a demonic quality to his presence. He wears a dunce cap and has seeming difficulty articulating his blame. “Shame on you,” he finally spits out and his fingers fold into the familiar horns posture that has become associated with Satanism and Baphomet. Again the idea of scapegoat is reinforced.

In returning to the archetype of Baphomet, it is relevant to this discussion that the name Baphomet was originally a corruption of "Mahomet", the Latinisation of "Muhammad", founder of the religion of the Arabs, who became the scapegoat for the 9/11 attacks. “Shame on you”, while holding the Baphomet hand mudras, simultaneously announces whom he blamed for the attacks and the Bush family allegiance to those secret societies, represented, in part, by the chessboard classroom floor.

Bush’s contortions receive an annoyed sidelong glance from the classroom teacher, whose minority disposition immediately puts her at odds with Bush’s privileged white status. Perhaps to assuage her, George W. Bush becomes Barack Obama, smug and self-satisfied.

Before moving on to the classroom and happenings there, we should take notice of the educational decorations on the blackboard behind the presidential puppetry. Of relevance are the following:

1)   Clock – It is high noon. Could this be a reference to the year ’12?

2)   Human evolutionary progression chart – This graphic chart begins with a fish, progresses through ape and homosapien, and terminates in enlightened humanity replete with halo.

3)   Urinating penis – A urinating penis is placed on the chalkboard, the flow of which seems to fall on both presidential heads.

4)   Hangman game – A game of hangman is half finished. The word in question is “evolution” to compliment the chart above the board. The first four letters of the word are entered and read backward spell “love”.

5)   Shark – A shark glares at the presidents. Perhaps a reflection of their common natures.

6)   Burning house – A house burns behind the president adding to the ambience of threat, danger, and terror.

7)   Hearts – A swarm of hearts hang over the teacher indicating that while the educational system may be sick, those implementing the system are well intentioned.

8)   Brain lightning – Beneath the blackboard two brain hemispheres are split apart by lightning, indicating both the activation of the pineal gland and the synapses firing during the integration of right and left hemispheres.

9)   Dragon – A fire-breathing dragon flies toward the activated brain away from a model of the heart indicating the movement of the kundalini force from the heart center and into the brain centers during the higher stages of spiritual unfolding.

10)          Algebraic equation – The formula “F = -F” indicates that there is justice within the apparent lack of justice.

All these symbols indicate that human evolution is at play in the life of humanity, regardless of the efforts of the power-elite to arrest that process for the purpose of engineering a populace of sacrificial goats.

Obama’s glib laughter is short lived as he watches a child, reminiscent of Alice and symbolic of Ishtar (the High Priestess and subconsciousness), drop her apple of learning (or indoctrination) in the spirit of disillusionment. From the broken apple grows a lily of wisdom. Obama begins to sweat with concern, for in this new generation is the hope of true freedom built on wisdom gleaned from learning. This transformation in childhood education bodes ill for the power-elite and their twisted plans to exploit humanity.

However, sadly her classmates are blue and petrified indicating the autistic, depressed, and useless collateral fallout from the failing educational system. The remaining child caught in the spotlight is lost and disenchanted. In the background we see the white rabbit of intuition which Alice now pursues in lieu of her formal studies that have served only to freeze and silence her peers. Only a minority will pull through, but we shall see that that small percentile will be supported by a force far more powerful than the antagonisms our age brings.

Outside the school graffiti on the wall reads "Psalm 23" telling us that America must pass through hard times on its way to enlightenment.

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the Lord for ever.

An American flag blows tattered in a winter wind indicating a country torn by bi-partisanism and the rifts - religious, economic, generational, and racial – that beset us on every side. As the camera pulls away we watch the Twin Towers fall under mysterious and suspicious circumstances. The world is cold and icy indicative of the Cosmic Winter or Vedic Kali Yuga from which we are ready to awaken. Human consciousness is fixated on the material (symbolized by ice) with little regard for the other phases of mind stuff, from which the physical world congeals. The slow melt of this icy world represents both the constant threat of global warming and also the transition of this spiritual ice age into Cosmic Spring.

On a glistening icy ridge overlooking the ocean into which the melt flows, dances a lone kachina dancer celebrating the Hopi prophecies which describe our transition into the new age. The kachina also represents the vitalism to which our physics and common thought is beginning to lean; namely that all the elements of the universe are living beings and that human survival is contingent upon relationship with all life, both seen and unseen, in the world. This is a distinctly different position than the commodification of baphometic nefesh reined and routed by the power-elite. To put a fine point on it, it is the difference between the hyper-masculine domination and the feminine relation.

The kachina’s dance foreshadows the anubic vessel steering out from mysterious mists. Keeping in mind that the various phases of water symbolize the various phases of vibrational frequency occupying creation, this ship emerges from the mist (pure spirit) and rides upon the water (pure mind). Anubis represents the spirit of humanity, and humanity carries within it a precious cargo – the Sun and Son of God.

The scene shifts and under a red-crescent moon we see a black-winged Osama bin Laden leading an Arab army. His wings are black indicating that the religious authority he operates under is an ignorant ruse used to manipulate the Middle Eastern populace into war. He wears a CIA badge showing that he is either an agent for or a creation of the Central Intelligence Agency who have, at the behest of the power-elite, orchestrated many modern conflicts for the benefit of their hidden masters.

In the distance, oil derricks drill into the ice and a flow of black oil drips steadily into the sea. The power-elite seek to own and control energy, be that life-force, oil, and, as we shall later see, even femininity, menstruation, and sexuality.

Next we are shown the Statue of Liberty, symbol of free democracy, but, more significantly, justice, as represented by the balanced six-pointed shining star at her feet. It is upon disciplined equilibrium that sovereignty and freedom stand. But storm clouds spiral above her crown and her guiding torch, that light unto the nations, falls into the sea.

Liberty’s children are egg-bound, owned and watched in utero by those same scaled forces that puppet presidents. These watchers are fallen angels, the Slavic Grigori. It is to their blame that the travesties that led to the mythical worldwide flood occurred, and it is they who operate behind the scenes of human drama to orchestrate death and the subsequent release of nefesh, off which they feed.

The Book of Enoch states: "And Azâzêl taught men to make swords, and knives, and shields, and breastplates, and made known to them the metals of the earth and the art of working them, and bracelets, and ornaments, and the use of antimony, and the beautifying of the eyelids, and all kinds of costly stones, and all colouring tinctures. And there arose much godlessness, and they committed fornication, and they were led astray, and became corrupt in all their ways. Semjâzâ taught enchantments, and root-cuttings, Armârôs the resolving of enchantments, Barâqîjâl, taught astrology, Kôkabêl the constellations, Ezêqêêl the knowledge of the clouds, Araqiêl the signs of the earth, Shamsiêl the signs of the sun, and Sariêl the course of the moon."

In short, the Watchers are responsible for civilization and its ills. Their grip on humanity is a primary theme through the remainder of the video.

Again we see the head of Anubis moving through the mist. Hermanubis is a symbol for the reincarnative aspect of humanity through which we collectively gather knowledge and carry our potential through our deaths and rebirths. Hermanubis eventually yields conscious immortality, but first the human soul must be tempered into presence by myriad trials and throws. All this suffering is for the refinement of our consciousness.

Hermanubis represents a half-awake humanity. His body and limbs are human, but the jackal dreams still dominate his mind. These dreams move the body to behave in ways inappropriate to its constitution. Nevertheless it is this instinctive urge that leads the Messiah through eons of suffering into the light of perpetual consciousness, unbroken by the sleep of death.

The sacred heart is painted over the Christ’s solar plexus. It has echoes painted over the lower energetic centers indicating that this rise of energy has almost moved into the heart. When this occurs, we humanity will move into a new age of love, compassion, and understanding. The Navajo call this process “the pollen path”. On his brow is etched the Eye of Horus, whose physiological counterpart is the pineal gland, which when reconstituted avails humans to communion with God.

However, the Christ (Enlightenment) sleeps with a crown of thorns on his head. This Messiah, our creation, our creator, and our savior sleeps within the ship of humanity. He sleeps and trembles. This trembling is highly significant in that it shows the work of the corporeal intelligence associated with the constellation Pisces. This trembling is the result of purifications (Vedic kriyas) within the body and its subtle components. It is a sign that the kundalini (serpent power, Holy Spirit, Ruach ha Kodesh) is active within the body/mind and purifies it toward enlightenment.

Christ is Us. It is our whole self, and the purifications within the body of Christ are the struggles of humanity in the world around us. They are our struggles, our purifications, as we are tempered toward the light of Consciousness.

Now we are shown the genie of the mass media that both grants us our desire for knowledge and holds us hostage to that knowledge. The genie is also reptilian, and on his beard is an inverted eye of providence signifying the inverted priorities that the media and its programming forces on the mass mind. The child’s head has been cracked open and is empty save the loathsome presence of that genie. Behind his wide eyes the stock market feed runs. He is depleted, hypnotized, and dominated by the media genie’s endless berate and barrage of information meaningless and empty.

Bombers fly overhead and destroy a mosque. Bats fly from the ruin as from a belfry indicative of the madness inherent within the Islamic religion. But in the closed eyes of the Christos they are not bats but white and delicate moths that burst into holy fire at his touch. His heart also flames at this impact, revealing that it is through love alone that we will make peace with the Muslim world.

The kachina dancer draws back in sorrow as we view the morbid passion of the Christ as it has been revealed to us by the Church. A red halo wraps Mary’s head indicating that her holiness has only ever been Martian and for the purpose of war and control. Her garb is black, indicative of Catholic ignorance. The Church and its horrific fascination with pain is merely another mechanism by which we have bound ourselves. A scarab, Egyptian symbol of immortality, crawls over the battered face of the Christ child. Though the edifices be crude and broken, still the spirit of grace is present even in these tired forms and rituals.

The abused Christ child is a symbol of all tortured children the world over, and the next image has tragic pedophilic connotations. The skull and bones tattoo on the pedophile’s arm indicates the perpetuation of this by the systems created by the power-elite. It implies that the abuse of children is largely responsible for the ticking, red-eyed, automatonic violence in the world today. But this should not be viewed as predator and victim, for this perpetuates the madness. We must honor, respect, and protect innocence, for it is in our innocence that we stand to inherit a new and peaceful world.

And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. (Jesus in Matthew 18:3)

Next we see our pink lily of wisdom slide down a stream of filth. It sinks in the goo with the working class man. Common sense has been derided and the natural wisdom inherent in all humanity is at risk as pollution threatens to drown the robust health of the everyman.

A line of black army tanks barrel through the street and a young idealist charges toward them with a white flag of truce. A Chinese tiger patch sown onto her jacket reminds us of 1989 Tiananmen Square. She is a fierce advocate of peace. On her left cheek a heart and on her right cheek the symbol for nuclear energy. Her enthusiasm is arrested by a celebratory grim reaper. She feels her efforts are in vain, and she relinquishes her cause.

Still the Christ sails on and shakes as this mass purification continues. Now his feet are ablaze. The Piscean Age associated with the feet of the Grand Man (the Solar Logos – the Christ Yeshua) is coming to an end.

The media genie still torments the mindless child with its tirade, and the child cries out in anguish. The screen through which the genie transmits alternates between the genie’s face and the eye of the Watcher. And from the center of the universe through the four Qabalistic worlds rides the Christ on his anubic chariot. His speed accelerates as his actualization draws near.

A fiery breath streams from his pursed lips, and he enters a tunnel reminiscent of the gullet of a fish, perhaps in recollection of Jonah’s whale, in which death is remade a body eternal. Christ’s flesh is aflame as he enters this tunnel; and quickening bolts of lightning lick him as we, his ship, carry him along. Even this icy cave is melting with the promise of new life and life eternal.

A quaint Kali stomps and dances over his temporal grave. He is Shiva soon to rise anew and remake the world in divine image.

A school of fish swim to the surface of the water and jump into the anubic chariot reaffirming the end of the Piscean Age as humanity accumulates the lessons learned over the last 2,000 years. Still the savior sleeps and shakes as light begins to pour through the cracks of the cavern walls.

A hand emerges from a spiral cloud and points to a prison tower, wherein is held a frenetic, syphilitic old woman. A neon heart flashes red by her window revealing her as a harlot, but she is every woman. She is the feminine trapped and bound in a role of slavery, subservience, and disrespect. She is the victim of thousands of years of rape and exploitation, especially by the Church, as evidenced by the cross atop her tower. She peers fearfully out the window and frantically draws back as the invading light surrounds her. As the light embraces her terror, her bloody issue vanishes.

And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment: For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole. But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour. (Matthew 9:20-22)

The impact of enlightenment upon the gender and sexual conflicts in our world today is purification and recalibration. It is the only solution for the many sufferings of the world, and, incidentally, it is also the deepest cause of those sufferings. According to Qabalistic gematria, Messiach (messiah) and Nachash (serpent) have the same numerical value of 358 and hence a complimentary and antagonistic relationship. The redeemer and tempter are one and the same.

Still the Christos sleeping, dreaming, “working out his salvation with fear and trembling”, rides on through the valley of the shadow of death, for it is by these death throws and labor pains that the new age will be born. And Kali dances on…

A fog of corporate drones replete with suits and cases order themselves hollow beneath the starry sky. The dreaming Christ dispels them easily. It will not take a risen Lord to disband that vacuous lot. Even now the voice of the masses threaten to blow away an economic system built on smoky myth.

The media monster abandons the boy, and empty he looks to the skies from whence cometh his help. He walks forward in silence.

The reaper continues his celebration conducting the orchestra of transformation on all sides. The battered child the dark mother once mourned is now lifted into the light of the moon and whirls like a dervish, symbolizing reconciliation between the souls of Christianity and Islam. Their reconciliation is the fruit of the realization that they share the same source and have, in sight, beyond all superficialities, the same desired end.

The icy world now turns in spiralic exaltation.

The kachinas continue their dance of realized vitalism.

A new day dawns. Christ emerges from the valley of the shadow of death into a field of clear water strewn with pink lilies. His feet still blaze, and suddenly his kriyas are completed. His shaking ceases. His purification is performed. He is awake.

Christ is awake within humanity, and as he gazes into that fierce and unifying fire at the heart of the Galaxy from whence he sprang as Sun and Son, we are at peace. He and we as one. Vessel and captain as one.

Behind me now the Church crumbles, obsolete vestige. Before me, too, the pyramids sink, for their purpose as crypt and conduit is also completed. My crown of thorns vanishes as my countenance now shines in recognition of my true nature. 

I am the Sun.

I am the Son of God.

I and the Father are One.
