Symbolism in Poland's Next Top Model Promo: The Checkerboard

Symbolism write up by VigilantCitizen.com for the Youtube clip above:

The opening sequence of the second season Poland’s Next Top Model manages to pack in a single minute a whole lot of Illuminati mind control imagery. Not unlike Versace’s H&M ad (described in this article), the opening features a handler figure – a role played by the show’s host, supermodel Joanna Krupa. Wearing a black and white checkered dress, which becomes a Masonic checkerboard floor, the handler looks over the models, who are running around in a labyrinth and manipulates them at will. She also has control of all aspects of the labyrinth, including time (not unlike Jareth in the movie Labyrinth, analyzed here).

Based on Alice in Wonderland (of course), the sequence features countless mind control symbols and triggers including: tricky mirror reflections, “drugged” by cupcakes, butterflies, etc. In short, this sequence represents Illuminati control of the fashion industry.

Symbols in Episode #4 of Once Upon A Time

Rumpelstiltskin

For this blog post on the  television show Once Upon A Time (Episode #4), I focus on the mythological origins of one of the main inhabitants of Story Brook, Maine...Rumpelstiltskin. In this episode he is after the infamous first born of the queen.  However, Once Upon A Time offers a plot twist, in that the famous queen that Rumpelstitskin made a deal with is the beloved fairy tale character Cinderella. In this episode Cinderella is struggling to keep her first born child in the modern world (where she is trapped as a nineteen year old, single mother, whose prince is under a spell, and wants nothing to do with her).  The link to the show is provided above, in case you missed the episode.

Rumpelstiltskin takes out Cinderella's Fairy God Mother for her wand

"All magic comes with a price." With her fairy godmother gone, Cinderella still yearns for a new life

"What I want is precious." Cinderella unknowingly signs away her firstborn

In the modern world, Cinderella is 19 and pregnant; under the care of Mr. Gold

Here is a write up on the mythological origins of the fairy tale character Rumpelstiltskin, who has incarnated as Mr. Gold in the modern world depicted on the show...shedding some light on the unusual request of this elf...who seems insistent on getting the first born of royalty.

(Information from Mythical Creatures Guide)
Rumpelstilksin is an elf character in a fairy tale of the same name that originated in Germany (where he is known as Rumpelstilzchen). The tale was collected by the Brothers Grimm, who first published it in the 1812 edition of Children's and HouseholdTales. It was subsequently revised in later editions until the final version was published in 1857.

Plot Synopsis
In order to make himself appear more important, a miller lied to the king that his daughter could spin straw into gold. The king called for the girl, shut her in a tower room with straw and a spinning wheel, and demanded that she spin the straw into gold by morning, for three nights, or be executed. Some versions say that if she failed, she would be skewered and then fricasseed like a pig, while others take a less graphic approach and say that the girl is locked in the dungeon forever. She had given up all hope, when a dwarf appeared in the room and spun straw into gold for her in return for her necklace; then again the following night for her ring. On the third night, when she had nothing with which to reward him, the strange creature spun straw into gold for a promise that the girl's first-born child would become his.

The king was so impressed that he married the miller's daughter, but when their first child was born, the dwarf returned to claim his payment: "Now give me what you promised". The queen was frightened and offered him all the wealth she had if she could keep the child. The dwarf refused but finally agreed to give up his claim to the child if the queen could guess his name in three days. At first she failed, but before the second night, her messenger overheard the dwarf hopping about his fire and singing. While there are many variations in this song, the 1886 translation by Lucy Crane reads

"To-day do I bake, to-morrow I brew,The day after that the queen's child comes in;
And oh! I am glad that nobody knew
That the name I am called is Rumpelstiltskin!"

When the dwarf came to the queen on the third day and she revealed his name, Rumpelstiltskin lost his bargain. In the 1812 edition of the Brothers Grimm tales, Rumpelstiltskin then "ran away angrily, and never came back". The ending was revised in a final 1857 edition to a more gruesome version where Rumpelstiltskin "in his rage drove his right foot so far into the ground that it sank in up to his waist; then in a passion he seized the left foot with both hands and tore himself in two." Other versions have Rumpelstiltskin driving his right foot so far into the ground that he creates a chasm and falls into it, never to be seen again. In the oral version originally collected by the brothers Grimm, Rumpelstiltskin flies out of the window on a cooking ladle (Heidi Anne Heiner).

Name Origins
The name Rumpelstilzchen in German means literally "little rattle stilt". (A stilt is a post or pole which provides support for a structure.) A rumpelstilt or rumpelstilz was the name of a type of goblin, also called a pophart or poppart that makes noises by rattling posts and rapping on planks. The meaning is similar to rumpelgeist ("rattle ghost") or poltergeist ("noisy ghost"), a mischievous spirit that clatters and moves household objects. (Other related concepts are mummarts or boggarts and hobs that are mischievous household spirits that disguise themselves.)

The earliest known mention of Rumpelstiltskin occurs in Johann Fischart's Geschichtklitterung, or Gargantua of 1577 (a loose adaptation of Rabelais' Gargantua and Pantagruel) which refers to an "amusement" for children named "Rumpele stilt or the Poppart".

Analysis
The story of Rumpelstiltskin is an example of Aarne and Thompson's folklore type 500 (The Name of the Helper; see links below). Other fairy tale themes in the story include the Impossible Task, the Hard Bargain, the Changeling Child, and, above all, the Secret Name.

Rumpelstiltskin is most commonly interpreted as a cautionary tale against bragging (compare with the concept of hubris in Greek mythology), but in this case not the miller himself but rather his daughter is punished for his lies. An alternative explanation is that the tale could have been meant to teach women the importance of performing a supporting role in their later marriage. The gift of spinning straw into gold is seen here as a metaphor for the value of household skills. Indeed, the king in this tale does not seem to be interested in the girl besides her alleged magical capabilities — even though her beauty is mentioned in passing — and she exists only to bring him riches and bear his children.

The dwarf's demand for the girl's first-born child probably has remnants of older legends which held that malignant sprites and goblins would steal unattended babies and replace them with a child (or "changeling") of their own. (Similar tales exist about trolls as well, though their motives were generally seen as selfish rather than unpleasant, in that they supposedly found some of their own children too humanoid to exist among them.) However, tales like these in themselves were intended to stop children from playing outside without care, or mothers from leaving their children in danger, and the miller, famously, puts his own child in the power of a greedy king, while she in turn agrees to hand over her child to a virtual stranger.

Another tale revolves about a girl trapped by false claims about her spinning abilities: The Three Spinners. However, the three women who assist that girl do not demand her first born, but that she invite them to her wedding and say that they are relatives of hers. With this more reasonable request, she complies, and is freed from her hated spinning when they tell the king that their hideous looks spring from their endless spinning. In one Italian variant, she must discover their names, as with Rumpelstiltskin, but not for the same reason: she must use their names to invite them, and she has forgotten them.

Pendulums

The above video offers a brief synopsis on how to use a pendulum, making it a perfect companion to the following post on pendulums.  I have been playing with my own pendulum over the last few days. Therefore, I thought I would share my thoughts and some basic inforamation on this wonderfully intuitive device...

Gail Wood has an amazing quote about the power of pendulums.  She says, “Pendulums use our bodies as a conduit and channel for our intuitive inner selves and to our inner divinity which sparks within us, then connects us to the divine transcendent universe.”

In the book Pendulum Magic for Beginners, Richard Webster states, “The pendulum is not a new invention.  It has been used for thousands of years.  In ancient China it was used to deter and chase away evil spirits, and to determine where they came from.  The ancient Egyptians used a pendulum to determine the best places to grow their crops (Coppen, 1974)…In Roman times people were condemned to death for using a pendulum, probably because it was being used to plot against the emperor.”

Pendulums allow us to connect to the collective unconscious and our higher selves, gathering information using a series of yes or no questions.  It is important to clear your mind when working with this device (listen and receive the answers that you are meant to hear, not what you want to hear).

If you choose to begin working with one, there is a ton of information online about making and using this device.  Almost anything can be  used as a pendulum, and it is easy to make one, or you can also purchase a pendulum online, at a metaphysical shop, or even a flea market.  It is an extremely powerful and intuitive device.  There are many interesting exercises that you can practice with your pendulum, helping strengthen your personal connection with your intuitive self.

Yeah, uh huh, you know what it is
Black and yellow [x4]

[Chorus:]
Yeah, uh huh, you know what it is
Everything I do, I do it big
Yeah, uh huh, screaming that's nothing
What I pulled off the lot, that's stunting
Repping my town when you see me you know everything
Black and yellow [x4]
I put it down from the whip to my diamonds, I'm in
Black and yellow [x4]

[Verse 1:]
Black stripe, yellow paint, them niggas scared of it but them hoes ain't
Soon as I hit the club look at them hoes face
Hit the pedal once make the floor shake
Suede inside, my engine roaring
It's the big boy, you know what I payed for it
And I got the pedal to the metal
I got you niggas checking game I'm balling out on every level
Hear them haters talk but there's nothing you can tell 'em
Just made a million, got another million on my schedule
No love for 'em nigga breaking hearts
No keys, push to start

[Chorus:]

Everything I do, I do it big
Yeah, uh huh screaming that's nothing

[Verse 2:]
Got a call from my jeweler, this just in
Bitches love me 'cause I'm fucking with their best friends
Not a lesbian but she a freak though
This ain't for one night I'm shining all weak hoe.

So many rocks up in the watch I cant tell what the time is
Got a pocket full of big faces
Throw it up 'cause every nigga that I'm with Taylor

[Chorus:]
Yeah, uh huh, you know what it is
Everything I do, I do it big

Black and yellow [x4]

[Verse 3:]
Stay high like how I'm supposed to do
That crown underneath them clouds, cant get close to you
And my car look unapproachable
Super clean but its super mean
She wanna fuck with them cats, smoke weed, count stacks, get fly, take trips and that's that
Real rap, I let her get high, she wouldn't she feel that, convertible drop fill, 87 the top peel back

[Chorus:]

Yeah, uh huh, you know what it is
Repping my town when you see me you know everything

Everything I do, I do it big
Yeah, uh huh screaming that's nothing
What I pulled off the lot, that's stunting
Repping my town when you see me you know everything
Black and yellow [x4]
I put it down from the whip to my diamonds I'm in
