The End TimesSAMAEL AUN WEOR

Original Transcript Title: Conferencia Sobre Hercólubus · Cover Art: Greg Martin

FOREWORD

Like many other messengers of light, Samael had his secret enemies too. On one of hisjourneys to Guadalajara, being already in the city, he received an anonymous phone call,threatening him of death, in case he carried out the lecture at the University ofGuadalajara. One of the members of the Master’s group suggested that it would be betterto cancel the event. Another one, that a security group be formed. The lieutenant colonelMoisés Rodríguez Tapias, also present, proposed of going uniformed, in order to imposerespect. But, Samael looked irreducible: “Neither one thing nor the other. Now, morethan ever, I am going to dictate the lecture at the university.” No sooner said than done,the Master headed towards the university, whose auditorium had gathered 2,500 students.The topic of the lecture was intentionally controversial: The end times and theradioactive rings of Alcyone.

THE END TIMES

I want to refer to the year 1962 in an emphatic way. Date: 4th of February. Hour:between two and three in the afternoon.

An extraordinary event occurred; there had been at that time a celestial traffic jam in thewonderful constellation of the Water Carrier. What we are stating here is not something apriori, without any foundation, what I am saying has been seen by all of the astronomersof the world. From all the observatories on Earth one could verify that there was a totaleclipse of the sun and the moon. No one who has some knowledge of astronomy will beable to deny it.

It was precisely, on that day and at that hour, that the Age of Aquarius began, and all theplanets of the solar system met in the constellation of the Water Carrier, for the greatcosmic meeting.

Many theses exist about the date on which the Age of Aquarius would begin, somepresume that it was a few years earlier, others presume that it was years later, but factsare facts and we have to surrender before facts.

The cosmic phenomenon was seen by everyone, I repeat, by every one of theastronomers of the world, and since that date the vibration of Aquarius has intensifiedtremendously.

When we clearly observe the zodiacal sign of Aquarius, we can prove extraordinarythings:

Aquarius is the house of Uranus and Saturn.

Uranus is a revolutionary planet and controls the sexual glands; it is terrible, catastrophic.

Saturn obviously reminds us of the chaos, the return to the original point of departure.

In front of the constellation of the Water Carrier we find Leo.

Leo is a zodiacal sign of fire, revolutionary, tremendous.

Aquarius, dominated by the chaos, is death. Uranus is the revolution. Leo is the universalfire, burning. Obviously, the Lion of the Law is heading towards humanity, which is nowmature for the final punishment.

If we meditate on these viewpoints, we come to the conclusion that the end times havecome and we are in them. Unquestionably, we find ourselves at a critical moment,terrible, difficult.

Innumerable illnesses turn up here, there and everywhere. The Earth trembles andquivers in all the areas of the world. The seas, once clean, are contaminated; the marinespecies are dying. The oceans have become real dumps.

Atomic rubbish, certainly, has no safe place where it can be harmless. It is clear that anyatomic dump will fail sooner or later and a horrible catastrophe will come.

Land, that is so necessary for cultivation, is going sterile. Millions of beings that live onit there, in the near future, will experience a great desolation and many will be those whowill perish for lack of food. War and rumors of war everywhere; illnesses that have neverbeen seen before, etc., etc., etc.

The atmosphere is contaminated. When one goes for a trip to the countryside and looks atthe blue color of the sky, it no longer shines, it is lacking that sharp perfect color fromother times, now it shines with a slightly leaden greenish color, which indicates that theatmosphere has been changed.

One does not need to be very wise to understand that the superior layer of the atmosphereis the filter which breaks down the solar rays into light, color, heat and sound.Unfortunately that filter has decomposed due to atomic explosions. Before long, thatfilter will not be able to break down the solar vibrations into light, heat, color, sound.Then, the sun will look black and the moon red like blood.

On the other hand, involution has reached its maximum; there are no longer parents forthe children, neither children for the parents. What happens between parents and childrenin all the corners of the Earth is frightening.

Organic modesty has been lost. The intellect has degenerated, etc., etc. Wherever youlook, only weeping and grinding of the teeth is found, as the Holy Scriptures say. But Ido not want to turn grim, neither do I say this with the desire to frighten people, all Iwant is for us to reflect seriously and very sensibly.

What happened to good manners?

What is left of organic modesty?

Why has the intellect been put at the service of evil?

Let us look around ourselves at everything that happens.

Unquestionably, humanity finds itself governed by intellectuals, in all the areas of theEarth. For what purpose has this served? In what state does humanity find itself?

There is chaos, there is anarchy and this you cannot deny.

Therefore, let us reflect. Are we perhaps happy? Who would be able to talk abouthappiness in those times?

So we find ourselves confronting ourselves, biting at our own destiny, faced with thephilosophical dilemma of ‘to be or not to be’. The hour has come, then, to reflectprofoundly: Who are we? Where do we come from? Where are we going? What is thepurpose of existence? Why do we live? And what for?

Living like this, eating, drinking, reproducing, becomes very boring in the end, evenfoolish, we would say. Obviously, we find ourselves in the end times.

When we look at the Earth with its four seasons, we understand well that our planet Earthspins around the sun in 365 days, with some minutes and fractions of a second. This iscalled the terrestrial year and it has four seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter.

We cannot deny that the sidereal year, the cosmic year, also exists. Our Ors solar system,where we move about and have our being in, travels around the zodiacal belt in 25,968years. This journey of the solar system around the zodiacal belt is what a sidereal yearconstitutes.

The sidereal year, like the terrestrial year, has four seasons: spring, summer, autumn andwinter. The spring of the sidereal year is the Golden Age, where life is a true Eden.Humanity turns out perfect from the hands of its Creator, the solar hierarchies govern andhappiness boils and palpitates in everything.

In the summer or the Silver Age of the sidereal year, this primitive splendor turns a littlepale. The solar hierarchies continue governing a world without borders, a world wherethere is only peace and love.

In autumn, the Copper Age of the sidereal year, humanity starts with its borders and itswars, with its hatred and its crimes. But in winter, in the Iron Age, everything ends withan awful cataclysm.

We find ourselves, precisely, in winter, in the age of Kali-Yuga, in the Iron Age. Eachtime a race reaches the Iron Age, the Kali-Yuga, it perishes through an awful andtremendous cataclysm.

What can we say, for example, about the polar race, former inhabitant of the northernpolar cap? They perished.

What can we say about the Hyperboreans, those who Friedrich Nietzsche refers to? It issaid that they were destroyed by strong hurricanes.

What can we say about the Lemurians? They perished in rain, fire and earthquakes.

And what has been said about the Atlanteans? What do the holy books say? Truly, all ofthem affirm that there was a Universal Deluge. It was then when the axes of the Earthrevolutionized themselves, the seabeds changed and millions of inhabitants perishedamidst the waters of the Atlantic Ocean.

Now it is good that you understand why we are at the end of the Iron Age. To representthe current moment, occult esoteric symbology appoints a great hourglass; it is still, itdoesn’t work, as if it is indicating that the end times have been fulfilled. Next to thehourglass, a skeleton with its scythe symbolizing death.

The beginning of the end of this Aryan race began exactly in the constellation ofAquarius. It was then when the sun reinitiated its march along with all the planets of thesolar system around the zodiacal belt. A race does not last longer than a journey of the

solar system around the twelve constellations. It has now returned to its original point ofdeparture.

So, the sidereal year is ending and before long it will have reached its end. The axes ofthe Earth will be revolutionized. We already know that the magnetic pole does notcoincide with the geographical pole. The North Pole is melting; huge icebergs are foundnear the equatorial zone and are coming loose from the poles.

So, the revolution of the Earth’s axes is a proven fact, and something that can be provenwith perfect mechanical devices. Let us add something unusual to that, I want to refer toHercolubus, the gigantic monster that is to bolt down upon our planet Earth.

Hercolubus is already coming, it is found in view by all the astronomers of planet Earth;it is gigantic, mighty, six times bigger than Jupiter and belongs to the Tyler solar system.It is not like many suppose, a dislocated planet of some solar system, no, it is notdislocated; it spins around the gravitational center of the Tyler solar system.

Before long, that gigantic world will pass on an angle of our solar system, then thecatastrophe will be precipitated. In celestial mechanics, Hercolubus helps verticalize thepoles, it is a piece of the great machine. The approach of Hercolubus is at our door.

In the year 1999, Hercolubus will be visible before all human beings and every eye willsee it, and in plain midday it will appear like another sun. When Hercolubus passes nearthe Earth, it will obviously precipitate the catastrophe. This gigantic world has anextraordinary power of attraction.

Sequentially we will say, the liquid fire from the Earth’s interior will start new volcanoesand, in general, the igneous element is sure to burn all that is and all that has been. It wasfor that reason that Peter said: “The burning elements will be destroyed and the Earthand all the works that there are in it, will be burnt.”

The water will make the duo with the fire. The revolution of the Earth’s axes will changethe seabed and all the human beings will perish.

Now I want you to understand why we are forming the Army of World Salvation. Wewant to initiate a new civilization, a new culture. The apocalyptic times of the end havecome.

Humanity has torn six seals of the great book of Saint John, when the seventh seal istorn, the end will come, the catastrophe will be produced.

One could argue here that many others, previously, in the past, expected the end and thatnothing happened. I want to tell you that this time we are talking about laws of celestialmechanics; if celestial mechanics did not exist, the entire cosmos would end in acatastrophe.

As in the Atlantean continent there was a chosen race, which served as a base or nucleusfor the formation of this fifth Aryan race, which now perversely dwells upon fivecontinents, I will also say that today a nucleus for the sixth race is going to formed.

As the Atlanteans didn’t ever believe Manu Vayvas Wata that the end times had come,they had fun on the eve of the great catastrophe, they got married, they drank and theyate, on the next day they were corpses. Thereby I will also say, that what I am nowstating in an emphatic way, will not be believed by everyone.

Many will obviously laugh, saying, ‘A lot has been said about this end of the world, andwhat?’ Peter the apostle himself came forward saying that throughout these days manyiniquitous and perverse people would say, ‘Where is the fulfillment of your prophecy, ofyour arrival, if everything remains as it was in the first days of our early ancestors?’

The Atlanteans also laughed at the catastrophe, in their time, but when the revolution ofthe Earth’s axes made the seabeds change, Atlantis sank with all of its millions ofinhabitants.

Today we again approach another gigantic catastrophe. I, like Manu Vayvas Wata, amwarning as I warned the Atlanteans in that time. The final hour approaches, that giganticplanetary monster that is to swallow the world is already coming. When speaking likethat, I know that many of you present resistance, that you laugh in secret, but it is writtenthat he who laughs at what he does not know is on the way to being an idiot.

So, let’s prepare ourselves, the Earth is subjected to great agony in these moments andthe end of all agony is called death. When a sick person is agonizing, when he showsunmistakable symptoms of his death, we know well that what follows is his decease, theend.

The Earth in these moments is moaning, is agonizing. Everything indicates a disaster andin the long run it will end in an awful cataclysm. When we look at the sun rising,increasingly towards the north, we will know that the end time is closer and we will bebrought to the catastrophe.

As a select populace was formed in Atlantis, we are now also forming a select populace.I want to refer in an emphatic way to the Army of World Salvation. This message that weare delivering will reach all the corners of the Earth, and all the hearts.

Gnosis now shines in Argentina, Peru, Ecuador, Chile, Colombia, Venezuela, Costa Rica,El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Mexico; it has already begun in the USA andCanada. There are Gnostic schools in Santo Domingo, Tenerife and Spain. Before long,the Gnostic Movement will shine wonderfully in the entire Western Hemisphere. It canbe said that it already sparkles here, there and everywhere. It can be said that the Army ofWorld Salvation has already taken shape.

A little later, we will continue in France, England and all the countries of Europe.Subsequently we will advance towards Asia and the Orient. It will be precisely in theAsiatic continent where Gnosis will reach its climax. This is the first phase of thediffusion’s labor.

Later, the Brothers entrusted with this labor will retreat to silence and meditation, untilthe leavening is ready, until the epoch has come. Moments before the catastrophe, wewill grab from the smoke and the flames those that have worked on themselves, those

that have transformed, those that have eliminated from their psyches the inhumanelements that we possess.

They will be chosen, taken to a secret place, to an island in the Pacific, between themeridian of longitude and latitude. From there we will contemplate the duel of the fireand the water for centuries.

After the catastrophe, the Earth will remain enveloped in fire and water vapor. For us, theBrothers, it is our duty to grab the select populace that will live in a chosen place, untilthe Earth is again in conditions of being inhabited.

New lands will emerge from the bottom of the seas and when a double rainbow shines inthe sky, the sign of a new alliance between God and Men, we will take the selectpopulace to inhabit new lands and new skies.

So, that anyone knows once and for all, that the Aryan race, which today perverselypopulates the face of the Earth, is going to perish, is going to be destroyed. Of all thisthat you see, nothing will remain, not even the ashes. Everything will be burnt;everything will be buried in the bottom of the seas.

I believe that you are now understanding the sense behind the reason for the invasion ofthe Army of World Salvation. However, not all of humanity will listen to us. ManuVayvas Wata was not listened to in his epoch either, they laughed at him. The heroes ofthat epoch were not listened to either. People never accept the crude reality of facts, untilthey have the facts on top of them. People always look for loopholes, for evasions, theybelieve that they can go on as they are, until the failure occurs.
