  • 00:00

    The last thing I noticed in Washington DC propelled me on a virtual journey around the

  • 00:05

    world.

  • 00:06

    Remember the pair of interlocking triangles surrounding the White House?

  • 00:10

    It struck me that the horseshoe shaped lawn in the White House backyard looked a lot like

  • 00:15

    the blue stone ring at Stonehenge.

  • 00:18

    That got me thinking how these two triangles together form a 5 by 12 rectangle that has

  • 00:24

    the same proportions as the station rectangle at Stonehenge.

  • 00:30

    Following this hunch, I drew a line from the tip of the Federal Triangle to the center

  • 00:34

    of Stonehenge.

  • 00:36

    Later on I happened to zoom into New York City when this layer was on, and saw that

  • 00:40

    the alignment perfectly bisects Central Park.

  • 00:44

    That's probably not an accident so here we go!

  • 00:51

    The angle that this large scale alignment takes through Central Park matches the interlocking

  • 00:56

    Pythagorean triangles' hypotenuses.

  • 01:00

    Four such triangles match Central Park's proportions of 5 to 24 precisely.

  • 01:07

    I then wondered what is this unusual aqueduct doing just under the surface of the Jacqueline

  • 01:12

    Kennedy Onassis reservoir?

  • 01:15

    It seems to mirror the triangle's hypotenuse angle.

  • 01:18

    That's certainly odd, but in my research I've learned to follow so-called coincidences wherever

  • 01:24

    they lead.

  • 01:26

    The aqueduct leads us to the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

  • 01:30

    Getting closer still, we see this variation of the Templar flag in the atrium of the Robert

  • 01:36

    Lehman collection.

  • 01:38

    Incidentally Albrecht Durer's esoteric masterpiece Melancholia I is in this collection and we'll

  • 01:45

    study it in Egypt.

  • 01:48

    In case you're thinking I'm imagining connections where none exist, right outside this room

  • 01:53

    is one of the oldest artifacts in North America, a 3500 year old Egyptian obelisk from Heliopolis.

  • 02:01

    Note the octagon surrounding yet another solar symbol.

  • 02:05

    There are only a handful of ancient Egyptian obelisks left in the world, even counting

  • 02:10

    those still in Egypt.

  • 02:12

    So when I see one I sit up and take notice.

  • 02:16

    This obelisk is the twin of Cleopatra's needle in London.

  • 02:20

    Egyptian temples typically had paired obelisks at their entrances, so the obelisks now in

  • 02:26

    New York and London used to together frame the entrance to a temple in Heliopolis.

  • 02:32

    It was quite a difficult and expensive project in the 19th century, and even today, to transport

  • 02:38

    a 224 ton slab of granite halfway across the planet.

  • 02:44

    Connecting nations with ancient Egypt was apparently a very powerful motivator to the

  • 02:49

    Freemasons who bothered moving these obelisks.

  • 02:54

    Overlaying the floor plan, we see what the aqueduct is pointing to, literally an ancient

  • 02:59

    Egyptian temple within the Sackler wing of the Met.

  • 03:03

    The Temple of Dendur had to be removed from its original site in order to save it from

  • 03:08

    being submerged by the construction of the Aswan High Dam.

  • 03:13

    In 1965 the government of Egypt presented the temple as a gift to the United States,

  • 03:19

    which was ceremonially represented by Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.

  • 03:24

    That's quite a coincidence considering the aqueduct in Jacquie's reservoir led us to

  • 03:29

    the very temple she received.

  • 03:31

    Was the former first lady playing the role of Isis?

  • 03:36

    While we're in New York let's take a look at one of the most famous tourist spots and

  • 03:40

    greatest symbols of America and visit the Statue of Liberty.

  • 03:45

    The authors Graham Hancock and Robert Bauval have researched the Statue of Liberty and

  • 03:51

    you might be surprised what they have found.

  • 03:53

    French sculptor and well-known Freemason Bartholdi designed the colossal statue originally for

  • 03:59

    the opening of the Suez canal in 1867.

  • 04:04

    Fellow Freemason Gustave Eiffel, who was later made famous for his Parisian Tower, was commissioned

  • 04:10

    as the statue's engineer.

  • 04:14

    It is said Bartholdi modeled the sculpture after the Roman goddess Libertas.

  • 04:19

    The truth is Libertas was an echo of the Egyptian goddess Isis.

  • 04:24

    After Bartholdi's colossus was rejected for the Suez canal due to financial reasons, he

  • 04:30

    re-purposed it as the Statue of Liberty for New York harbor.

  • 04:34

    It comes as no surprise that the cornerstone for the Statue of Liberty was laid in a masonic

  • 04:40

    ceremony.

  • 04:42

    Researcher Jim Alison has connected the dots and identified the triangle between Giza,

  • 04:47

    Pharos and the opening of the Suez canal.

  • 04:51

    The angle of this triangle matches the slope of the great pyramid and looks like the Greek

  • 04:56

    letter delta which beautifully echoes the Nile delta.

  • 05:02

    The colossus of Rhodes was one of the 7 wonders of the ancient world.

  • 05:07

    The giant statue that stood on the island of Rhodes depicted Apollo, god of the Sun,

  • 05:13

    who also wore a crown of 7 rays.

  • 05:17

    Seven rays is very interesting in light of the culmination of the initiation ceremony

  • 05:22

    into the cult of Isis.

  • 05:24

    According to 19th century author Eduard Schure, after a successful initiate survived all the

  • 05:31

    harrowing tests and triumphed over death by fire, water, and temptation of the senses,

  • 05:37

    he was led into an inner sanctum where he looked upon a colossal metal statue of Isis,

  • 05:44

    crowned with a diadem of seven rays.

  • 05:47

    I believe seven is Isis' secret number.

  • 05:52

    Isis' son Horus was god of the Sun, just as Apollo depicted in the colossus of Rhodes

  • 05:59

    was god of the Sun to the Greeks.

  • 06:02

    You'll see that the Statue of Liberty's base star is quite odd, having 11 points.

  • 06:08

    I think this was done to make the number symbolism in the Statue of Liberty fit an important

  • 06:14

    Egyptian structure, the Great Pyramid of Giza whose height to base proportion is 7 to 11,

  • 06:21

    like the famous convenience store's name.

  • 06:24

    And if you didn't get 11 from the base star, the height of the statue from heel to top

  • 06:29

    of head is 111'1".

  • 06:35

    So it all fits now: you see how the Statue of Liberty secretly depicts the Egyptian Goddess

  • 06:41

    Isis.
