Hey dudes. Been out of the loop for a while and probably will be on and off but thought I'd pop back in tonight.
One thing in particular really struck me as odd immediately I heard about it and I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned this (maybe it was just too in-your-face to bother with?). Yep, the 33 miners trapped in the dark. That's right 33. Whenever I see that number in the media I just gotta follow the s-h-i-t-e smell...
So I was sitting on that ever since it was first announced and because I wasn't watching TV all the time it just sat there in my grey matter. Then I heard about the rescue attempt. Blow me down - the vehicle that was to rescue them was called "The Phoenix"! Ok, my interest spiked and immediately I had this whole thing in my head about 33 miners spending 69 days trapped in a dark hole underground then being raised from darkness to the light by The Phoenix. It was just too much and I guessed right then that the little I knew was just the tip of the iceberg.
Now I've just done a quick search for info (something I haven't bothered too much with being back on dialup now!). And it's the good old Vigilant Citizen that got onto it to put the same stuff together -
The Odd Masonic Imagery of the 33 Chilean Miners’ Rescue By Vigilant | October 14th, 2010
The rescue of the 33 unfortunate Chilean miners has definitely turn into an international media event. All aspects of the rescue have been carefully staged to make the entire thing a spectacular show inspiring emotions, admiration and national pride. For those knowledgeable of Masonic and occult symbolism, it is hard not to ponder on the numerological and symbolic facts of the event. Here are some of them:
1 - The number of Miners
Insignia of the 33rd (and highest) Degree of Scottish Rite Freemasonry
The number 33 is of great importance in Freemasonry and in Qabbalistic system of numbers. It can be found in many instances in Masonic lore.
“For example, consider the number 33. The first temple of Solomon stood for thirty-three years in its pristine splendor. At the end of that time it was pillaged by the Egyptian King Shishak, and finally (588 B.C.) it was completely destroyed by Nebuchadnezzar and the people of Jerusalem were led into captivity to Babylon. (See General History of Freemasonry, by Robert Macoy.) Also King David ruled for thirty-three years in Jerusalem; the Masonic Order is divided into thirty-three symbolic degrees; there are thirty-three segments in the human spinal column; and Jesus was crucified in the thirty-third year of His life.”
- Manly P. Hall, Secret Teachings of All Ages
“Alchemy is a threefold art, its mystery well symbolized by a triangle. Its symbol is 3 times 3 – three elements or processes in three worlds or spheres. The 3 times 3 is part of the mystery of the 33rd degree of Freemasonry, for 33 is 3 times 3, which is 9, the number of esoteric man and the number of emanations from the root of the Divine Tree.”
- Ibid
2 - The Date of the Event
The date of the start of the rescue is also significant:
10/13/10 which can qabbalistically be calculated this way: 10 + 13 + 10 which equals…33.
3 - The Phoenix
The name of the rescue device was named “Fénix” (Phoenix), which is the bird that rose from its ashes. Once again, the selection of the name Phoenix, a mythological creature holding a great importance in occult mysteries, is quite interesting. The bird is considered a symbol of accomplishment of alchemical transmutation, a process equivalent to human regeneration.
“In the Mysteries it was customary to refer to initiates as phoenixes or men who had been born again, for just as physical birth gives man consciousness in the physical world, so the neophyte, after nine degrees in the womb of the Mysteries, was born into a consciousness of the Spiritual world.”
- Ibid.
4 - The Number of Days it Took to Drill the Hole
…33.
“The work took 33 days total, one day a man,” said Mikhail Proestakis, manager of Driller Supply Company, which participated in the drilling of the rescue shaft with a diameter of 66 centimetres, which is 33 times two.
“I believe in numerology, it has to mean something.” - source
5 - The First Note Sent by the Miners
“Others call attention to the first note the miners sent up to show they were still alive – “estamos bien en el refugio los 33” (all 33 of us are in the shelter) – which was 33 characters in length.”
- Ibid
6 - The Symbolism of the Event
To summarize the rescue event, 33 miners, who were trapped for 69 days in the depths and darkness of the underground were lifted one by one, on 10/13/10 in a device called “Fenix” – a creature representative of occult initiation – to the light of day. As they say “Ex tenebris lux”: From darkness to light.
Acting out the Masonic motto?
With these facts in mind, I’m asking you this: was the Chilean Miner’s rescue a Masonic mega-ritual?

And now, as I heard on BBC radio this morning (ugh yesterday morning now), some of the miners are saying they warned management about the safety of the mine the day it collapsed but were told it was perfectly safe. It is also reported the miners heard weird sounds in the mine before the collapse.
And then there's just weird s-h-i-t-e like this...
Chile's president brings mine rocks for the Queen and David Cameron
The Chilean president, Sebastian Piñera, will present rocks from the San Jose mine to David Cameron and the Queen on Monday as he embarks on his European "victory tour" in an attempt to capitalise on the success of the miners' rescue mission.

Mr Piñera hopes to use the international admiration gained by the rescue of the 33 miners in a clockwork operation to forge trade links with Britain, France and Germany.
The triumphalist tone of the long-planned visit was set with a visit to the Cabinet war rooms in Whitehall. Mr Piñera kept a copy of Mr Churchill's 1940 "blood, toil, tears and sweat" speech to the House of Commons by his side during the miners disaster.
Mr Piñera, 61, a billionaire businessman and former media mogul, has brought "many" gifts for the European leaders he meets on a three country tour, including The Queen and David Cameron. Rocks from the mine and a copy of the note attached to the first drill to reach the men after they had been trapped for 17 days that declared all 33 men had survived the collapse on Aug 5 have been brought by the president.
President Piñera has vowed to demonstrate long-term benefits of his leadership during the crisis by attracting foreign investment in new industry.
"England is a key ally in Europe and we hope to strengthen our ties," he said. "With David Cameron we share the same values, the same views.
"I am bringing him a piece of rock from the mine and I hope he will keep it in Downing Street in tribute to courage, faith, hope."
Mr Piñera, who sat at the bunker cabinet table and posed with a Cuban cigar, spoke in Churchillian terms about the operation to rescue the miners.
He said. "We did it because we were united, we did it because we were convinced, and did it because we would never leave anyone behind."
But it is the boardrooms not the battlefields that is the focus of Mr Piñera's tour, which will see him travel to France on Tuesday and Germany on Thursday.
On Monday, he will meet both the Queen and Mr Cameron, who telephoned him to congratulate him on the rescue mission last week. Mr Piñera was filmed speaking to the British Prime Minister in English and saying: "Thank you for your kind words David. Maybe I see you next week."
By marshaling advanced engineering technology from around the world and devoting all available government resources to the rescue quickly, Mr Piñera ensured that the men emerged much more quickly than the post-Christmas time frame predicted.
While the European tour was cast in doubt by the rescue operation its rapid conclusion last week provided the ideal platform for Mr Piñera to travel north this week. Some in Chile suggested that he had put pressure on the rescuers to advance the operation more quickly to enable its completion while he was still in the country.
By staging such a well-planned and well-televised rescue, President Piñera has transformed his domestic image and granted Chile a generational opportunity to throw off the lingering damage of decades of dictatorship.
Aides to the Chilean president said his international task since the operation to use the goodwill generated for "Brand Chile" by the rescue operation.
"The president will speak of the Chilean way of doing things which means that it is a country where everything really works," a Chilean official in London said.
"Everyone related to Chile thinks that the rescue of the miners shows that we can do things properly and we hope that business and investment will recognise that." The conference will concentrate on infrastructure and renewable energy opportunities in a country that is 2,700 miles long and averages just 109 miles wide.
Within the country, Mr Piñera has promised tighter regulations and better conditions in the mining industry. The rescue operation and his subsequent pledges have transformed his image as the first elected Right-wing leader since the country was divided on ideological grounds by the 17-year military dictatorship of Gen Augusto Pinochet.
A poll published in La Tercera newspaper yesterday said that 84 per cent of Chileans approved of President Piñera's handling of the mine crisis. Mr Piñera's popularity ratings went from 46 per cent before the accident to 57 per cent afterwards.

I mean... c'mon already! Some days I just "get on with things" but others I really just have to pinch myself I tell ya 8)
I listen to BBC World Service a fair bit even though I get pretty pissed at the constant barrage of blatant propaganda but I swear I'm actually hearing that radio chatter from the 1984 movie more and more these days :shock:
