1. I haven't had a chance to listen to this yet, but I have heard of them.
There is a group on Facebook that mentions them quite often.

4. The Facebook group is "The Return of the Divine Feminine"...
and Laura Magdalene Eisenhower, the granddaughter of President Eisenhower, leads it.

Here's her site:

2. I listened to the first video........
There is some good stuff.......but I really feel that the Archons are our Lizard brain not outside ourselves at all.
I mean Yah wey (Spelling) was just another projection of ourselves as are all the deities in the worlds religions.

I really got to say that I prefer the Tao and other schools of thought in Chinese mysticism.
I really feel that they are much healthier on EVERY level.

I will try to find the time to listen to the second tape tomorrow.sigh.

3. Yes, SK. The first I'd heard of them
was in the Gnostic Pistis Sophia Gaia-Sophia mythos of creation of our material world.
But the PS itself is from the Gnostic belief that after Transfiguration, Christ hung around for 11 years, instructing his disciples in the mysteries of creation. http://www.gnosis.org/library/pistis-sophia/ps005.htm Here's a good write-up on the Gaia-Sophia, archons and aeons. http://www.metahistory.org/GAIA%20SOPHIA/mythos/Overview.php

"...Fallen Goddess opens with a company of gods called Aeons, divinities who dwell in the core of our home galaxy, the Pleroma. It describes the projection of the template for the human species (Anthropos) by the Pleromic gods. (This mythological image corresponds to the scientific notion of panspermia, the seeding of spores of life through interstellar space.) Then it tells how one of the immortal powers, the Aeon Sophia as Gnostics called her, departed in a reckless way from the galactic core, producing havoc in the outer region of the galaxy. In shock and disorientation, the Goddess comes to realize that she has precipitated an anomaly in the cosmos, giving rise to a bizarre species called Archons. The story then describes the pact beween Sophia and the sun, the mother star of our planetary system, which will enable the Earth to safely absorb and be nurtured by solar fire."

"Meanwhile the anomalous species, the Archons, construct their own 'virtual reality' heaven, modelled after the living fractal configurations in the Pleroma. Their tyrannical chief, a reptilian freak called Yaldabaoth, mistakenly believes himself to be the only god in the cosmos, lord of all he surveys. This false creator god will become the central deity of monotheism, posing some grave problems for the human species when it final shows up on the scene."

As you can imagine, this - that The God is false - pisses a lot of people off about Gnosticism, and that it was not until Christ came to change the idea of a punitive god to one more father-like.

5. Red Ice
Edited on Fri Apr-22-11 08:14 PM by EarlG
There are also Red Ice interviews with John Lash. He mentions them. The metahistory site (edited) posted is his site.
Another one is Jay Weidner. http://www.jayweidner.com/

It makes sense to me. I intend to do more research. There doesn't seem to be much information available. Books by Lash and Jay's films are a good resource for it.

8. Interview
This is the interview transcript between Rense and Jay Weidner on the topic of Archons.
http://www.jayweidner.com/Archons.html


I think the reason we haven't heard more about them is that not much information was available until the discovery of the Nag Hammadi texts in 1947.
