The end of the world Dead Sea Scrolls reveal that will occur in 2011 Our universe is a kind of great cosmic clock, which is in turn in a mind field of only two possible dimensions, is the great cosmic clock or Shu (light) that separate them from the other dimension., This order affected by the appearance of a channel between these two dimensions. There are therefore two dimensions, the spiritual dimension and the dimension of the body. The spiritual dimension, he would be there somewhere, but few elements between dimensions, they perceive that this is indeed the case. The spiritual dimension is inhabited by beings of light, but also by creatures of darkness, hell is not there, but is rather a state in the near future on Earth. This stretch from supplementing the great cosmic clock cycle to a certain moment in the future as beings of light enters the picture.May 21, 2011, may be the beginning to the transformation of Earth into hell, this is related to the inherent need in the body dimension of suffering and detachment from the material body, to pass through the gateway

to

the

dimension

spiritual

beings

of

light.

The souls of all those spirits that are in the body size and still have not made it through the door to the spiritual dimension, are there in that alternate dimension, some can not even enter this dimension and wander through the plane of waiting for this moment living


in the future in which their souls to reach the state called hell so they can ascend gradually to the spiritual dimension The Great Cosmic Clock of God The great cosmic clock is a special type of alignment, which allows for the day when it would open a channel or gateway between one and another dimension, after a study linking the iconography of various faiths, I was able to establish the parameters for this alignment

PARAMETERS 1) Link a triple conjunction between Mercury-Mars-Venus near the Sun and the Pleiades (7 Sisters - M45 - 7 wavelets - lotus etc ....) 2) Note that the Sun must be in the constellation Taurus and close to M45 3) Form the signal (M45, Sun, Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, Uranus, Neptune, Moon and Pluto) 4) The sign describes a circle and refers to a serpent that surrounds the Earth


Shu (the Egyptian god of light)


5) Another body, the signal is linked to the May 21, 2011, could be called Planet X - Nibiru (But do not think it is a planet) 6) confirmed the parameter 5, the body would block sunlight, turning red in the sky

Could this phenomenon reach Or only observe the cross?

多多????


And where did these parameters?

If you look at the manuscripts of the Essenes, there is mentioned that alignment "And I opened the fifth seal and saw and saw the angel of life, and her lips flowed the Holy Alliance between God and man and she knelt over the earth and gave man the gift of creation. And man created an iron mower serpent and the harvest gathered, was famine and death. And I turned my face in shame. " Fragment of Essene Revelations - The Fifth Seal In effect this alignment, is shaped like a snake and a large iron and even lawn leads directly to the seal of Belial, that character who runs the estate of the Sons of Darkness, and both mentioned in The Dead Sea Scrolls - War of the Sons of Light against the Sons of Darkness


The Seal of Belial, extracted from the Infernal Dictionary of Collin Plancy.

The Sixty-eighth Spirit is Belial. He is a Mighty and a Powerful King, and was created next after Lucifer. He appeareth in the Form of Two Beautiful Angels sitting in a Chariot of Fire. He speaketh with a Comely Voice, and declareth that he fell first from among the worthier sort, that were before Michael, and other Heavenly Angels. His Office is to distribute Presentations and Senatorships, etc.; and to cause favour of Friends and of Foes. He giveth excellent Familiars, and governeth 50 Legions of Spirits. Note well that this King Belial must have Offerings, Sacrifices and Gifts presented unto him by the Exorcist, or else


he will not give True Answers unto his Demands. But then he tarrieth not one hour in the Truth, unless he be constrained by Divine Power. And his Seal is this, which is to be worn as aforesaid, etc.

Meaning: A new world order rise from the ruins following the war, famine and natural disasters, will be established in what is now Africa and South America, will remain in force for 7 years Revelation 9:3-5 And the smoke of the pit came locusts upon the earth and were given power, as have the power of scorpions of the earth. And dominion was commanded not to harm the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree, but only those men who do not have the seal of God in their foreheads. And it was because not kill them, but be tormented five months: and their torment was as the torment of a scorpion when it strikes a man. When these 5 months appears the figure of the lamb, their arrival will be preceded by a signal equally in the sky. Revelation 14:1-2 I had another vision: The lamb stood on Mount Zion, accompanied hundred and forty-four thousand people that bear his name and his Father's name written on their foreheads. A murmur rumbled in the sky as the sound of flowing streams or loud thunder. It was like a chorus of singers who sing the accompaniment of harps.


The Seal of Belial And the special alignment of May 21, 2011


The most important part of the lineup is without a doubt the triple conjunction between Mercury, Mars and Venus, because there supposedly would bring the door to that other spiritual dimension that is mentioned in both the world's faiths. Dimension to the light, but also to the spiritual darkness. Revelation 4: 1-2 After this look: I had an open door in heaven and the voice heard before me like a trumpet said, "Come up here and I'll show you events that will come soon. ‖ In that moment I was seized with the Spirit and I watched this: There in heaven was a throne placed on the throne and someone was sitting.

The meaning of the name of Yahweh, Jehovah has been interpreted in many different forms and discuss its cultural origin. To be composed of four Hebrew consonants-Y, M, V, H-is also called the Tetragrammaton (ie, composed of fourletter word).


Conjunction Mercury-Mars-Venus

Now who is Belial? Belial is the spirit of darkness, the angel of hostility, directed to the inheritance of darkness (all those men contrary to God and His law) But "did to Belial, the Angel of enmity to the grave, And chose with his aides and his council to be the cause of evil and guilt. And all the spirits" of their inheritance 'They are angels of destruction, follow the laws of darkness, And they lead to their wishes. The Essenes believed in the existence of fallen angels, those who were expelled for being contrary to the law of God. In the Mazdaism is also spoken in the beginning of the trial the chief spirit of evil, Ahriman is embodied in the serpent Lahak and will be defeated by the Messiah (Saahyant).

This is the alignment of interest, the alignment of the May 21, 2011 it is clear that alignment leads directly to the seal of Belial as they open a doorway between the spiritual dimension and the dimension of the body, heaven and earth, So this can lead to a cataclysmic event, which occurs within a 7025 years - 25,000 years. The time is difficult to calculate because of the complexity, which accounts for a computer program to define the exact positions in the past.


Dimensional door between the spiritual world of light and darkness The snake would allow the interaction of the beings of light and darkness between the two dimensions, the spiritual and the body but it will bring chaos on earth and the universe. To manifest in the body dimension the spirits of light and darkness must take a body, enabling them to interact in the body dimension.

Today, more convincing is the idea of the emergence of a new world order following a strong cataclysm in 2011. For many reasons, like the Mayans and Egyptians revered the world's various faiths in the past, the Pleiades or seven sisters (M45). The Pleiades represent the start time, the present, the future of humanity. And activities such as harvesting, were conditioned in large part to his appearance in the heavens. The Maya based their sacred Tzolkin calendar, in the cycle of the Pleiades, and believed they were the birthplace of their culture, were called Tzabek or Rattlesnake tail, and also known as the Seven Sisters. Even the same Nostradamus hints at a common alignment of all beliefs, which in some way define, as in the past, the future of civilization as we know, Nostradamus refers to a conjunction between Mercury, Mars and Venus near the Sun and the Pleiades, the sun was in the constellation Taurus and is based on this alignment, which will generate the cataclysm into a new world order. On May 21, 2011, the inhabitants of planet Earth will observe in the morning sky, a sign of great significance and symbolism for the beliefs of the world (even for science). The phenomenon is referred to in the scrolls of the Essenes, as the "Sword of God," "Sword of the Essenes" or as the fifth seal. Alignment is the key to trigger a cataclysmic process, similar to that experienced by other civilizations in the past. Some of these cultures have left warnings to a greater or lesser degree, in manuscripts, icons and monuments (such as the pyramids of ancient Egypt). The way connected with the number 7, number of major importance in some of the older beliefs world.

Third Part of the Secret (Original Text) "J.M.J. Third part of the secret revealed on 13 July 1917 in the cave of IriaFatima. I write in obedience to Thee, O God, to bid by His Excellency the Most Reverend Bishop of Leiria and through your Most Holy Mother and mine. After both parties have already given, we have seen to the left of Our Lady and a little more on what an Angel with a flaming sword in his left hand, flashing it gave out flames that looked like they were going to burn the world but died out in contact with the splendor that Our Lady radiated with his right hand towards him from the angel pointing to the earth with his right hand, said in a loud voice: Penance, Penance, Penance! And we saw in an immense light that is God: 'something similar to how people appear in a mirror when they pass in front of it' a Bishop dressed in White 'we had a hunch that it was the Holy Father. " Other Bishops, Priests, men and women Religious going up a steep mountain, whose summit was a big Cross of rough like the bark of the cork tree, the Holy Father, before reaching it passed through a big city half in ruins and half trembling with halting step, afflicted with pain and sorrow, he prayed for the souls of the corpses he met on the road, reached the top of the mountain, his knees at the foot of the big Cross he was killed by a group of soldiers who fired several gun shots and arrows, and the same way there died one after another the other Bishops, priests and nuns and several lay people, men and women of different ranks and positions. Beneath the two arms of the Cross there were two Angels each with a glass pitcher in hand, in which collected the blood of the Martyrs and with it sprinkled the souls that are closer to God. Tuy-3-1-1944. "





The image of the Angel San Miguel, is very similar to what we refer to the document presented by the Vatican. Angel appears holding a sword and the devil or Satan. The angel claimed: Penance, Penance, Penance! For humanity.

Accident or design, the name of the planet Pluto, as the planet is named after the Roman god of the dead or the underworld. And then I found more matches, in the Christian Revelation and the book of the Essenes are direct references to this alignment, and it is clear, the work took to conceal or disguise these references, who translated for the first time the Greek scripts the language of Christian Revelation and other texts.


"Appeared in the sky a great sign: a woman clothed with the sun, the moon under her feet and on her head a crown of twelve stars. Was pregnant and cried out in pain because her time came to give birth" (Revelation 12: 1 - 2) (The information was altered) "A great sign appeared in heaven. A woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet and on her head a crown of seven stars. And I knew that she was the source of the streams that flowed and the Mother of the woods. " (Revelation of the Essenes) (The information is correct) Indeed he is referring to an object in the sky, but there is no truth whatsoever that has 12 stars, I believe that the translation is try to give importance to the disciples of Jesus, but the manuscript or original text lost its essence, if the opposite is the Apocalypse of the Essenes, in fact we find an object with 7 stars (the Pleiades - 7 sisters or whitecaps-M45-Messier 45 - "Lotus Flower").


The Pleiades are located in the constellation Taurus and the event that describes us to a conjunction of the Sun with M45. The calculation is not difficult just typing this in a program of astronomy and magic, leaving the date May 21, 2011 Select a conjunction in longitude, the planet: the Sun and the deep sky object, M45, give a range 3 years. Result:

Surprise! The date of the triple conjunction

Conjunction in longitude between The Sun and M45 (May 21, 2011)


Many of the texts of the Bible in its original Hebrew and Greek manuscripts were taken from Egypt. The image of the Pleiades is described in the iconography of the god RA

Look, what looks like a key and compare it with the image of the Pleiades



The image of Kundalini in Hinduism, also presents a great similarity with the alignment of May 21, 2011. Judge for yourself.

"A Kundalini is visualized as a rod of fire with seven flowers. The rod would represent the spinal column and the flowers would be the magnetic fields or centers, while the stalks symbolize the fine threads that connect our nervous with this powerful energy fields, amounting overwhelmingly in the middle of the stick. "




And so many other images of the iconography of the different religions, beliefs, science, life forms in the world.

The 7 Seals Essenes (Interpretation) (As at July 15, 2010)

1) And I opened the first seal and saw, and beheld the Angel of Air. And between her lips flowed the breath of life. And she knelt over the earth and gave man the winds of wisdom. And man breathed, and when he exhaled, the space is dark and smells became smelly and foul and evil clouds appeared on Earth. And turned my face with shame.

2 ) And I took the second seal and saw and saw the angel of water. And from his lips flowed the Light of Life and the Earth leaned over and gave the man an ocean of love. And the man walked into the clear and bright. And when you hit the water, currents are opaque and clear crystal water became turbid and lama. And the fish were dying in the dark (Oil spills in the Gulf of Mexico, Brazil, Venezuela, India etc ....)

3) and remove the third seal and saw and saw the Angel of the Sun and her lips flowed the Light of Life and the Earth leaned over and gave man fire power. And the strength of the sun penetrated the heart of man and this took power and made him a false sun and, lo, he spaced the rays of the destruction, burning forests, killing the green valleys, leaving only charred bones of their brethren. And turned my face in shame. (Fire across the globe)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3, 2010 .- The NASA released pictures showing the extent of forest fires that have ravaged several regions of the European part of Russia and have so far killed 41 people. The photographs were taken by Spectrum Imaging Radiometer (MODIS, for its acronym in English) of the Terra satellite U.S. space agency. They can distinguish a thick curtain of

gray and brown smoke that extends across the width of the image that was captured at a distance of about 700 thousand kilometers. NASA said that the movement is so thick that you can not see the ground under the cloud of smoke.

4) and remove the fourth seal and saw and saw the Angel of Joy and her lips flowed the music of life, and he leaned over the earth and gave man the song of peace. And Peace and Joy, as the music flowed through the minds of men. But the man heard only the stridency of sadness and discontent and


raised his sword and cut off the hands of peacekeepers and raised again and again and cut the heads of the singers. And turned my face in shame. (Events of today would be linked to the fourth seal, which occurred in the city of Lahore, Israel and others)

5) and remove the fifth seal I saw and I saw the angel of life, and his lips flowed the Holy Alliance between God and man and bent over the earth and gave man the gift of creation. And man created a mower snakelike iron and the harvest gathered, was famine and death. And turned my face in shame. (The special alignment of May 21, 2011 in the morning - which brings Hecatombe)

6) and remove the sixth seal and saw and saw the Angel of the Earth and her lips flowed the river of eternal life and He bent over the earth and gave man the secret of eternity, and told the man who open your eyes and keep the mysteries of the Tree of Eternal Life at Sea. But the man raised his hand and pulled out his own eyes and said there was no eternity. And turned my face in shame.

7) and remove the seventh seal and saw and saw the Angel of the Earthly Mother and He sent me a message with her flaming light of the Heavenly Father. And this message is for the ears of the man who was alone, walking between heaven and earth. And in the man's ear was whispered the message. And not to hear. More I turned my face in shame. (Solar Tsunami 2010 and 2011)


WASHINGTON (03/AGO/2010) .- NASA today warned to be vigilant celestial explorers Tuesday night and Wednesday as due to a solar flare caused last Sunday they may be able to see a spectacular aurora borealis. The solar laboratory of NASA, the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO, for its acronym in English) on Sunday found a rash on the sun's surface, which exploded and blew tons of plasma (ionized atoms) in space. In his tour of the space plasma is approaching the Earth and collide with the north and south poles of the Earth's magnetosphere will produce a diffuse but predominantly light projected onto the Earth's ionosphere known as "aurora borealis." As indicated by the astronomer Leon Golub, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CFA), the eruption "is aimed right at us, and is expected to arrive early on August 4. This is the first major eruption directed toward Earth in much time. " The rash, called a coronal mass ejection, was collected by the NASA solar observatory that launched in February and has provided a series of high-definition images in a variety of wavelengths."Tenemos una hermosa vista de la erupción", dijo Golub. "Y podría haber nuevas vistas más hermosa de venir, si se desencadenaran las auroras". Auroras are usually only visible at high latitudes. However, during a


geomagnetic storm that generated auroras can provide illumination in the sky at lower latitudes. The Sun goes through regular cycles of activity and every 11 years on average there is a peak activity period. His last solar maximum was in 2001, so this eruption shows the sun is awakening again.

Tsunami alert in Italy by submarine volcano threat

AFP Rome .- The coasts of southern Italy are at risk of a tsunami because it can break the walls of an underwater volcano, said Monday an Italian volcanologist. The rupture of the walls of the volcano could cause "rapid collapse of matter, causing a strong tsunami on the coasts of Campania, Calabria and Sicily," said Enzo Boschi, president of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) in a interview with the daily Il Corriere della Sera. Marsili submarine volcano, the highest in Europe, lies in the Gulf of Naples, about 150 kilometers off the coast of Campania. "It could collapse tomorrow. Our research detected a notable weakness of the walls of the volcano, which contains a large amount of magma. It seems that the volcano is active and could erupt at any moment," he said. Marsili is an imposing structure 70 km long and 30 km wide and a height of 3,000 meters. The crater is 450 meters below the sea surface, the paper states. "The breakdown of the walls would cause the movement of millions of cubic meters of materials capable of producing a huge wave. The information is accurate but it is not possible to forecast. The risk is real but it is difficult to assess," the expert.

2011 meteor shower worries NASA

NASA says that by October next year the Draconids, a meteor shower that occurs every fall, will be catastrophic for the fleet of satellites, probes and human constructions that orbit the Earth. It is expected to be bombarded with such intensity that could seriously affect most devices that circulate through space. It will be a good show from our homes but a dangerous avatar for satellites, according to public Neoteo, on its website. For us, the spectacle of watching a meteor shower represents a unique opportunity to admire the fascinating beauty of outer space. However, 2011 will become a high-risk time for all the artifacts of human design that swarm through the orbit


of our planet. Normally, the cars are nothing more than a visual wonder for those who admire them from the surface of the planet, but every so often, the number of meteorites that come to us increases dramatically and can be an uncomfortable source of problems for satellites that remain exposed to the impact of these small interstellar missiles.

In the picture you can see the location of Dacron (top left) in the sky. The timing of meteorites lluviasde places us at the October 8, 2011, which will be the day that Draconids fall on the planet as a shower of incendiary bullets, very nice from our perspective as observers, but very harmful from the point of view equipment into orbit. This meteor shower we visit every fall, but next year playing one of the fat, similar to those occurring in 1985 and 1998. The intensity of rain is expected as strong and could last for seven hours. NASA is already thinking about redirecting the International Space Station to withstand the brutal onslaught that is coming. The platform has a protective shield to prevent this type of bombing astronomical, but the power of the next Draconids fears that it will not be enough to stop the lethal impactos de los b贸lidos. William Cooke, del Centro de Vuelo Espacial Marshall de la NASA


(Huntsville, Alabama) said that experts predict a very strong burst of Draco, in the form of a big storm and expected a peak of several hundred-space ‖ blowflies per hour.

In the image is viewed as the constellation Draco through the "Big Dipper" and "Little Dipper." Effects of Draconids The Draconids are usually very weak but in 2011 than ravage the space station, so fragile telescopes like the Hubble also could be affected by the flood of killer particles to be ahead. The spacewalks also would be prohibited until the threat from the river of rock particles has passed. For satellites, including those that provide vital services such as communications, navigation satellite television, think about how to weather the storm. Besides the physical danger that may cause the bombing, electrostatic discharge can fry your vital electronic components. The chaos that would cause this rain of meteors can be enormous. You just have to imagine what would happen if the GPS is inoperative, non-line phones or televisions without issue.


NASA is preparing for a potentially damaging rain Meteor in 2011

NASA is evaluating the potential risks to spacecraft posed by the upcoming Draconid meteor shower in 2011, a seven-hour storm of tiny space rocks that could possibly damage major Earth-orbiting spacecraft like the International Space Station. Meteor shower risk assessment is more art than science, and some variations have been predicted for the 2011 Draconids by meteor forecasters. Because of this, spacecraft operators are being notified to weigh out defensive steps. Current forecast models predict a strong Draconid storm, possibly full-blown, on October 8, 2011, according to William Cooke of the Meteoroid Environment Office at NASA„s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Cooke confirmed that the Draconids do pose some threats to spacecraft. Cooke and Danielle Moser of Stanley, Inc., also of Huntsville, presented their Draconid data at Meteoroids 2010 -- an international conference on minor bodies in the solar system held May 24-28 in Breckenridge, Colorado. Predicted intensity rates for the 2011 storm could range from a few dozen to several hundred per hour. A meteoroid stream model at the Marshall Space Flight Center takes past Draconid showers into account in predicting a maximum hourly rate, and suggests that the 2011 shower could reach several hundred per hour.


Cooke told Space.com that past strong Draconid storms of 1985 and 1998 caused no significant electrical problems to spacecraft, but said that should not be taken lightly with the upcoming 2011 event. Although, due to the Draconids slow speed, the chance of electrical anomalies is relatively low, Cooke noted. Also, some spacecrafts are well protected for such issues. The International Space Station, for example, is heavily armored against orbital debris. ―We don„t expect anything to go wrong there,‖ said Cooke. ―I have no concerns about the space station. Even if the Draconids were a full-scale meteor storm I would be confident that the space station program would take the right steps to mitigate the risk,‖ Cooke said. He noted that the crewmates on board the ISS, however, should avoid doing any spacewalks during the event. For Hubble, if the risk seems high enough, operators will most likely point the observatory away from the Draconid radiant -- the point from which the shower emanates. ―Any time you take a mitigation strategy, like changing a spacecraft's attitude or turning off high-voltage, that incurs risk as well,‖ Cooke said. Each spacecraft is unique, and components have differing thresholds for damage, so programs are encouraged to conduct analytical studies to determine whether or not mitigation strategies are necessary for next year„s Draconids. Cooke noted that the threat to spacecraft from meteor showers in the past, such as the Leonids in 1998, produced more hype than it did impacts. ―We really didn„t understand what was going on,‖ he added. ―Now we have a much better feel. But the Leonids did sensitize spacecraft operators to worry about meteor showers. Perhaps, sometimes, they worry more than they should.”
