I. The Hamlet Myth

[In researching the Hamlet Myth] it was a surprise to find behind the mask an ancient and all-embracing cosmic power – the original master of the dreamed-of first age of the world.

Yet in all his guises he remained strangely himself.  The original Amlóði, as his name was in Icelandic legend, shows the same characteristics of melancholy and high intellect.  He, too, is a son dedicated to avenge his father, a speaker of cryptic but inescapable truths, an elusive carrier of Fate who must yield once his mission is accomplished and sink once more into concealment in the depths of time to which he belongs:  Lord of the Golden Age, the Once and Future King.

[The imagery of the Hamlet Myth] stands, as the evidence develops, for an astronomical process, the secular shifting of the sun through the signs of the zodiac which determines world-ages, each numbering thousands of years.  Each age brings a World Era, a Twilight of the Gods.  Great structures collapse; pillars topple which supported the great fabric; floods and cataclysms herald the shaping of a new world. (Hamlet’s Mill – An Essay on Myth and the Frame of Time, 1969; Second Paperback Edition, David R. Godine, Publisher, Boston, 1983, pp. 1-2.)

II. Creation of Plato‘s World Soul

(Wikipedia)

Timaeus then explains how the soul of the world was created (Plato’s following discussion is obscure, [to put it mildly! – insert]. The demiurge combined three elements: two varieties of Sameness (one indivisible and another divisible), two varieties of Difference (again, one indivisible and another divisible), and two types of Being (or Existence, once more, one indivisible and another divisible). From this emerged three compound substances, intermediate (or mixed) Being, intermediate Sameness, and intermediate Difference. From this compound one final substance resulted, the World Soul. [Then, after complicated preparatory arrangements] the demiurge [creator] connected the body and the soul of the universe: he diffused the soul from the center of the body to its extremities in every direction, allowing the invisible soul to envelop the visible body. The soul began to rotate and this was the beginning of its eternal and rational life.

[And, in due course], the circle of the Same turns perfectly round and true knowledge arises.

262982

*  I have created a monument more lasting than bronze and loftier than the royal pyramids, a monument which neither the biting rain nor the raging North Wind can destroy, nor can the countless years and the passing of the seasons.  I will not entirely die and a great part of me will avoid Libitina, the goddess of Death; I will grow greater and greater in times to come, kept fresh by praise.  So long as the high priest climbs the stairs of the Capitolium, accompanied by the silent Vestal Virgin, I, now powerful but from humble origins, will be said to be the first to have brought Aeolian song to Latin meter where the raging Aufidius roars and where parched Daunus ruled over the country folk.  Embrace my pride, deservedly earned, Muse, and willingly crown me with Apollo’s laurel.

IV. Plato’s World Soul

105113

The numerical value of Plato’s World Soul is defined as the sum of 34 numerical values which are derived from the tonal scale according to what is known as the Traditional Construction of the World Soul. (See p. 229, Plato´s Mathematical Imagination by Robert Brumbaugh. Accessible on the Internet.

V. Watershed Event

End of our discourse about the nature of the universe

Omega sentence – Plato’s Timaeus

438097

On 26 February 2014, I posted the following message to [friends] – expressly for future reference:

While visiting Iceland last August, I met with Pétur Halldórsson over coffee at the Cafe Milano in Reykjavík. We discussed matters of mutual interest, including what my Saga Cipher work might possibly “mean“. I took a napkin and, for emphasis, wrote down the number 438097, which I have posted on previous occasions. This is the final cumulative sum of a very large number of names of individuals, institutions, dates and events, including two famous murder cases, a sex scandal in high places, and presumptive lies told in connection therewith. As I recall it, I first put this number on record in a [previous] message, explaining that I would not be providing any further details on it. That remains my position for the time being. I told Pétur (what I had long surmised) that I believed that this number was associated with a watershed event in human history whose final phase was upon our world.

An earth-shaking culmination of human and spiritual evolution.

The Same + The Other

543210 + 12345 = 555555

Who or what is The Other, so defined?

The Stratfordian Devil

There are two answers to that question:

1. 3858 + 2487 – 1000 + 7000 = 12345, where

3858 = THE DEVIL

2487 = Anus – Seat of Man’s Lower Emotions

– 1000 = Darkness

  7000 = Microcosmos – Man in God’s Image

12345

2. 12345 + 7000 + 7933 = 27278, where

12345 = The Other

7000 = Microcosmos – Man in God’s Image

  7933 = NON SANZ DROICT or with a comma: NON, SANZ DROICT

27278

NON, SANZ DROICT is The FAMILY MOTTO of the Stratfordian:

NO, WITHOUT RIGHT

THE DEVIL enters and exits The Stage of The Globe as:

17252 = Gulielmus, filius Johannes Shakspere

10026 = Will Shakspere, gent.
