U-Predict – The Tarot Radio Experiment: The Arecibo Reply (Air date: 5/20/2014)
To celebrate the refurbishment of the Arecibo Radio Telescope, it
broadcast a special signal into space on November 16, 1974. The transmission of
1’s and 0’s can be arranged into a diagram showing, among other things, a human
stick figure, the solar system, the telescope itself and the DNA molecule. In
August of 2001 a crop circle appeared close to the Chilbolton radio telescope
in Hampshire, England. It was quickly named "The Arecibo reply", as
it seemed to be exactly that; a reply to the Arecibo message, describing a
different alien race. Despite years of attempts of debunking, there is no
firm evidence that it was a hoax.
The Reading Room for this show included: Jean Maurie Puhlman, TarotDactyl (Mary
Brown), Camille Kea, Ivy Lieberman, and ReeNee Cummins.
First, when we talk about space and the idea of extraterrestrial
contact on U-Predict, the Tarot has a unique way of acknowledging that the
subject is definitely galactic – we get The Sun, The Moon, The Star and The
World pulled in synchronicity. Such was
the case with this broadcast. Despite
little public interest in this case, Tarot tells us to reconsider what we have
received. Many people point out that 80%
of crop circles are hoaxed, but in the book, “On the Edge of Reality” by Colin Andrews,
Mr. Andrews tracks down and talks to human circle makers. Many, describe seeing the circle they are
about to make in a vision or dream or while meditating. Many feel that they are contacted by the
authentic circle makers and are instructed to make the design. This adds a very interesting dimension to the
whole dynamic of circle making. Are these folks experiencers of the 5th
kind – those who are contacted telepathically by extraterrestrials?
The Tarot pointed out that The Hierophant would be “heartbroken”
(3 of Swords in synchronicity) to find that there is a whole other dimension to
life that we seriously need to consider.
To make this case even more fascinating, about a year later, in a
nearby field, another crop formation appeared. It resembled what most
would consider a “Grey” alien, and it held something that turned out to be a disk
of binary code. Using the ASCII characters to translate the digits the message
decoded was "Beware the bearers of FALSE gifts & their BROKEN
PROMISES. Much PAIN but still time. (Damaged word). There is GOOD out there. We
OPpose DECEPTION. Conduit CLOSING (BELL SOUND)". (Formatting per the
decoded message).
After discussing the second message, we pulled both the 2 of Wands
and 3 of Pentacles in synchronicity.
Together, this could indicate a message sent; a very important message
that could be classed as a formal diplomatic document. In the
same line of thinking, we pulled the 4 and 5 of Cups in synchronicity. The four is telling us that our way of seeing
the world is dissatisfying and the five is saying that our view is down-right
disappointing. We are told to watch for
deception. Could this refer to how alien
races have shaped humanity? How we have developed our fierce ways? Could this be “mom and dad” telling us to “cut
it out?” Oh, we also pulled the Queen of Cups at this time. In the past, this has always been another
signal that something out there loves us and wants to best for us.
Ivy Lieberman and TarotDactyl had interesting points on this
second message. Ivy wondered if this was
a renegade trying to warn us.
TarotDactyl said “I don't think the Emperor wants us to have the magic -
governments would try to keep us separated from alien help...” This is a common belief among many people
that this is exactly what is happening.
It would also explain why these incidents have gotten so little press
and have been dismissed when brought up for discussion.
Jean Maurie pulled angel cards for this reading. The 6 of Raphael told us to “reach out and
make new friends.” The 5 of Gabriel
tells us that we have a challenge to resolve, but to avoid drama in doing
so. And then we got “2 of Gabriel - make
bold and ambitious choices! Great
progress is possible. Important relationships with people who share your
vision. This is a good message.” Doesn’t
the angel message sound similar to the alien message? U-Predict!

U-Predict - The Tarot Talks about Archeology and the Bible (air dates – April 22 and April 29)
I know this is dangerous ground; to many people the
idea of mixing the tarot and anything to do with the Bible is blaspheme. But since the early beginnings of U-Predict,
we have been using the synchronistic archetypes that readily appear when tarot
readers read simultaneously to look at the archeological mysteries that cover
our planet. To move to the archeological
mysteries surrounding the Bible, one of the most mysterious books on the planet
(who actually wrote it, when was it written, and what was left out) was just a
natural follow-on to previous experiments.
And the news cycle was ripe; first we had the U-Predict broadcast on April
22nd to determine if a small scrap of papyrus had been discovered
that strengthened the argument that Jesus had a wife. A few days following that
show, a U-Predict regular, Mary Brown sent me some interesting articles that
talked about how little archeological evidence there was that there had been an
exodus out of Egypt by hundreds of thousands of Hebrews. I put the blogs together because they are two
different sides of the same coin; a relic that sheds doubt on a New Testament story that is told and the lack of relics that
puts doubt on an Old Testament story that is told. What is most amazing is what happened when
Jean Maurie Puhlman added Angel Tarot card to the mix. The angels gave us the best advice about the
entire book itself.
The Reading Room for the April 22 show included: The Reading Room included: Ivy Lieberman,
Jean Maurie Puhlman, Ivy Liberman, Mary Brown (Tarotdactyl), Becky Greywolf,
Anita Perez, Patti Phare-Camp, Camille Kea, and ReeNee Cummins.
The object read for was
“ On September 18, 2012, HDS Professor Karen L. King announced
the existence of a papyrus fragment dubbed “The Gospel of Jesus’s Wife” at the
International Coptic Congress in Rome.” (Harvard
Divinity School, http://gospelofjesusswife.hds.harvard.edu,
April 10, 2014).
The cards immediately began discussing
how upsetting this idea is to the status quo.
ReeNee Cummins talked about how that some of the other professors at
Harvard Divinity School and elsewhere did not see the idea of “wife” in a
modern context; that these women were seen as other servants of God, and would
not have conjugal duties. Ivy Lieberman
brought up the idea that everyone seemed stuck on Mary Magdalene as his wife,
when it could have been another woman.
The cards demonstrated just as much disruption would be caused if early
Christians had powerful women disciples who preached the same as the men.
Of course, The Hierophant was the most visible
of all the cards. This is the card that represents tradition,
and/or a large contingency of people and institutions that want to keep it that
way. The 6 of Cups, which speaks of preserving things and nostalgia also
figured prominently. What we surprising was the fact that the Death card also
showed up in synchronicity. To most in
the Reading Room, this spoke of the transformation that would happen if women
we given their real place in the history that is described in all of holy books
written at this time. Tarotdactly talked
about the Shekinah, a word that “just popped into her head. ReeNee defined it as the “feminine face of
God” that seemed to be lacking in this discussion – and all discussions like
it.
The rest of the Minor Arcana were cards
of arguing and dissension. We had 5’s of
Wands and Swords; we also had the 8 of Swords, a card that talks about being
bound up in thinking a certain way. In
fact, the 8 of Cups figured prominently in BOTH readings, telling us to get
past these points and move on.
Jean Maurie’s Angel card chastised us for
losing the real message – that of loving our neighbor and having compassion for
all living things. This is not the first
time that we have gotten this message when we have spoken about Jesus. It may be the tarot, but it is much more
spot-on than many modern clergy; it was his message and the application of the
message that was most important.
And so we moved on to the show on The
Exodus from Egypt on the 29th.
The Reading Room for the April 22 show included: The Reading Room included: Ivy Lieberman,
Jean Maurie Puhlman, Ivy Liberman, Mary Brown (Tarotdactyl), Anita Perez, Patti
Phare-Camp, Camille Kea, and ReeNee Cummins.
One of the best articles on the entire topic
was:
One of the most telling statements from this
article/Nova broadcast is the following:
“Is there mention
of the Israelites anywhere in ancient Egyptian records?
No Egyptian text mentions the Israelites except the famous
inscription of Merneptah dated to about 1206 B.C.E. But those Israelites were
in Canaan; they are not in Egypt, and nothing is said about them escaping from
Egypt.”
Other
research turned up similar comments about lack of evidence.
However,
an ardent group of religious Bible
scholars claim that if you move the Exodus story back further in history, there
is a period where it matches:
“…much less attention has centered on the timing of the
mid-18th-Dynasty abandonment of Avaris (biblical Rameses) that occurred “after
Amenhotep II”, and was followed by an inexplicable occupational gap. Did the
abandonment occur during the reign of Amenhotep II, at the end of his reign, or
during the reign of Thutmose IV?” (http://www.biblearchaeology.org/research.aspx)
So we began by asking if there was a
recording mistake, and the actual events happened further back in history. Anita Perez reminded everyone that if we
followed the matrilineal lines, we may have a more accurate picture of history.
ReeNee asked if it mattered; she asked if
we could just accept these Bible as a book that was about faith, hope and a
better tomorrow. That when (again) Jean
Maurie’s Angel cards opened up. The
Archangel Chamuel old us “There is a better way! Pause for reflection and insight. Dare to be Different. Gabriel told us to “Release ourselves from burdensome
situations.” Gabriel also told us that “We
were working too many hours, trying too hard to please others.”
The only Major Arcana card we got was the
Fool, the card of having faith and stepping off into the future unafraid. Again, are we too busy trying to prove or
disprove the book to miss the message?
The Minor included the Knight of Swords (have both sides rushed in fervently
trying to prove something instead of talking about the miracles that faith can
bring about). If all the religious books
were seen in that light would the world be a better place? U-Predict...
