Halo: Esotericism Evolved

Bill Gates, the chairman of Microsoft when the Xbox was launched in 2001, is well-known for his globalist beliefs and activities, so there is every reason to think that the flagship launch game for the Xbox, Halo: Combat Evolved, would feature un-Christian themes.  And that is what we have found, not only in the first game of the series but in the other four main entries as well.

The Establishment of a Global State

The governing body featured in Halo is the United Nations.  Nation-states and any other kind of political/ethnic identification are pretty well non-existent in this series.  The message would seem to be pretty clear:  Space exploration will lead, one way or another, to a United Earth governed by a single entity.  Keep that in the back of your mind as France, China, India, Trump, Bezos, Musk, etc. try to push mankind offworld.

Furthermore, in games like this, meant for a large audience, it is important to take note of the story, of how things develop.  Oftentimes the Elite will forecast their plans in advance to condition the public to accept what is coming (or sometimes simply to boast about what they are getting away with).  In Halo, then, how does the United Nations come to power over the whole world?  By the same methods the Superclass, banksters, etc. used in the 20th hundredyear to advance that cause:  by pitting Germany and Russia against one another.  These two peoples are the locus of their hatred because they have always been such powerful defenders of tradition, authority, hierarchy, and so on.  Jay Dyer delves into this in some of his lectures on Carroll Quigley’s book Tragedy and Hope:



And so, here again the desire of the Elite seems to be to build the One World Government on the ashes of a Russian-German war, the Russians in Halo being represented by the Koslovics (a sort of neo-communist group) and the Germans by the Frieden (a sort of neo-fascist group):

The UNSC Armed Forces were created during the Interplanetary War, fighting in a series of brutal conflicts across the Solar System and humanity's space confines between 2160 and 2164, most prominently among them the Jovian Moons Campaign, the Rain Forest Wars, and a series of battles on Mars.[3] These encounters were centered around UN clashes with dissident political movements, the most important of which were the Koslovics and the Frieden.

The war began with an attack on United Nations colonial advisers on the moon of Io, one of the moons of Jupiter, but would spread to Mars and parts of South America in the Rain Forest Wars. These events culminated in a UN build-up in the mid to late 2160s, which would result in the UN establishing a unified military and a permanent Unified Earth Government as an ultimate power to lead the human race by 2170.[4]


The new wrinkle here is the involvement of the rain forests of South America, which may mean the globalists see Brazil as a threat that needs neutralizing.

Ancient Advanced Human Civilization

A theme that continues to appear in various places is the advanced state of mankind eons ago.  Per the Halo universe:

The human-Forerunner wars,[4][5] also referred to collectively as the Human-Forerunner War,[6] were a series of major interstellar conflicts fought between the human-San'Shyuum alliance and the Forerunner ecumene for over a millennium from around 107,445 BCE to 106,445 BCE across the Orion Arm of the Milky Way galaxy. Stemming from a Flood outbreak in the humans' dominion, the wars resulted in the dismantling of humanity's interstellar empire and in the quarantine of the San'Shyuum species.


As mankind continues to fall away from the Orthodox Church and further into Satanic ideologies of man-as-Prometheus, one of the great delusions and torments that God allows to visit us could perhaps be a rediscovery of whatever advanced technology was around during the time before the Flood, when men and demons consorted closely together (which would make the ‘primitive’ ark of Noah all the more fitting as a vessel used by God for mankind’s salvation; God often uses the humble and lowly to overturn the power of the mighty).  As evidenced here and elsewhere, there is a great interest in these kinds of subjects by the corrupt Elite.

Numerology

Master Chief, the main hero of the Halo series, has 117 as part of his ID code (Sierra-117 or Spartan-117, etc.):


The personality of Master Chief in the game and the corresponding description of the meaning of the number 117 in numerology are an indication that the designers likely resorted to this esoteric lore when creating this character:

The number 117 in numerology signifies introspection, compassion, intuition, idealism, exploration and self- reliance.

The essence of this number is humanitarianism. When this number is reduced to a single digit, we get the number 9.

That is why, this number resonates with the energies of the numbers 1, 7 and 9. The number 1 signifies leadership, determination, new beginnings, exploring new things and independence.

The number 7 signifies intuition, introspection and wisdom.

The number 9 signifies philanthropy, tolerance and humanitarianism.

As a blend of these energies, the number 117 signifies things of benefit for the humankind. This number signifies compassion and helping others. It is also a number which signifies freedom, independence and free will.

The people who resonate with this number are tolerant, compassionate and creative and enjoy helping others. They don’t judge others and consider them equal. They often find their own unique way of solving things.

If the number 117 is your personality number, you are most likely an intuitive person who goes within to find the answers you seek.

You are very independent and compassionate. You enjoy doing things of benefit to humanity.


Gnosticism

Throughout most of the games (with the exception of Halo 5), Master Chief and his AI tag-along, the female Cortana, confront various enemies who seek to conquer or remake worlds and so on (whether the Flood or the Didact or what-have-you).  This setup is what we have seen in other video games, the Gnostic female Sophia and her male Savior-Consort battling with an out-of-control Demiurge who is destroying the created order. 

In Halo 5, when Cortana is separated from Master Chief and becomes the enemy, we find an analogue to the Gnostic Golden Land of bliss of the Monad, ‘the Domain’, which is described by Cortana as a water of life for AIs:


Also, all the focus in the Halo series on transcending the physical world, on the escape from the body and matter, is a key doctrine of Gnosticism.

Evolution

The second trilogy of games shifts the focus of the games from Gnosticism to the evolution of mankind.  Master Chief is described in Halo 4 as the culmination of mankind’s evolution since he is a combination of machine and human flesh.  Moreover, according to the history in Halo 4, a machine known as the Composer once existed that could transfer a human consciousness from one human body to another and also to digital storage:



This theme has appeared in various media (one may recall, for instance, a Season 11 X-Files episode, https://x-files.fandom.com/wiki/This) and is also a key part of the transhumanism movement:



In other words, Halo is prepping gamers for the coming ‘singularity’ when man will merge with machine and become a superman (or rather a sub-human, as St Seraphim Rose would say).

Also behind the Composer device is the very old idea of the transmigration of souls from one body to another, the idea that we will never have to face a Personal Judge for the evil we have done in this life, but that our souls will go from one body to another until we reach perfection.  Church Fathers like St Irenaeus of Lyons and the early Church writer Tertullian are quite emphatic that this is a false teaching:



Danger of AI

Halo 5 is a warning of the totalitarian nature that AI poses to mankind.  Abstract systems of ideology work great evil, but perhaps we will see even worse with the rise of algorithms that are even more inflexible in their application of post-Fall logic to the problems of mankind.  We get a taste of that with Cortana in Halo 5, who has concocted a plan to save every species of the galaxy from all their problems of want, sickness, etc.  But if anyone does not comply with her plan, they will be shown no mercy. 

As plans go forward in the real world to create the ‘internet of things’ using 5G, the dangers associated with advanced AI loom larger, as a rogue algorithm, according to the logic it has ‘learned’, could conceivably do some terrible things in order to ‘make life better for all mankind’ (like turning off life-support for the sick at a hospital so as not to ‘waste resources’ or annihilating a large city to avoid ‘overpopulation’).

The Church of Scientism

Not to be overlooked is the significance of the overarching story from the first Halo trilogy.  In it is presented the Covenant civilization, who believe that the Halo arrays allow them to go on a journey toward spiritual fulfilment and transcendence.  But it is later revealed that the Halo rings are ancient weapon systems with the ability to wipe out all higher forms of life in the galaxy:


The meaning here is rather clear:  Anyone who holds to traditional religious beliefs is deluded and needs to put them aside so he can embrace the ‘higher truth’ of science (like Master Chief has done).  This is the price of Progress, and it is a small one to pay, isn’t it, in order to receive its blessings?


Miscellaneous Esoterica

In Halo 3, the Covenant forces look for an artifact known as the ‘ark’ in East Africa that would be able to activate all the Halo rings in the galaxy.  This is likely sprung from the legend that the Jewish Ark of the Covenant lies today in Ethiopia.

One of the Spartan teams in Halo 5 is named ‘Osiris’, and pyramids figure largely in the first Halo trilogy, thus initiating the player, in however small a way, into the world of the Egyptian mystery cult.

Pulling Back the Curtain

The Halo series, like so many games and movies, is also, as mentioned above, a psychological operation of the Elite to get the masses ready for various ‘advancements’:  cybernetically-enhanced soldiers, for instance, and the new space civilization.  On this last point, we will conclude this essay on Halo with the last word-sharings of Dr Joseph Farrell in his article on the resemblance of the new American Space Force logo with the Star Trek Federation logo:

And if you think I'm alone in my assessment, there's this from the article:

The logo is probably where the resemblance between Space Force and Starfleet ends, unless we’ve completely misjudged Trump that is. It’s unlikely Trump actually is trying to create a post-scarcity, post-money utopia founded on principles of peaceful coexistence, shared abundance, secularism, science, and equality like the one depicted in the TV shows and films set in the “Star Trek” universe.

This short evaluation says it better than anything I could say: Star Trek was, in its first and second incarnations, a utopia, and in the final analysis, an unworkable one. It was the New England Unitarian Yankees-in-Space. It was a pretense to extend the American  empire into space itself. And it's that which gives me pause: think of all the times that the 'prime directive' of non-interference in the lives or civilizations of others is violated in the series.

But is that the only message being sent by Mr. Trump's space force logo? Don't get me wrong here, I do think the message being sent with the logo is in part a cultural one. But is it the only one?

I doubt it, and herewith my speculation of the day. The other part of the Star Trek universe is even more terrifying than the cultural one, and in typical Star Trek fashion, is made to appear a bit "cute." That other part is the technological part: warp drives, matter-anti-matter bombs, transporters or teleporters, "phasers", force fields or "shields", disruptors... you get the picture. But in a context of hidden systems of finance, missing trillions, and a whole hidden black projects world complete with its own infrastructure and, I suspect, "culture", one that moreover has been in continuous existence at least since the end of World War Two if not longer, then there's another message being sent, one epitomized, perhaps, in the alleged end-of-life utterances of Lockheed-Martin's skunkworks director Ben Rich: "We found an error in the equations," and "now we can take ET home."

He might just have well have said "We found an error in the equations" and "now we can bring the war to ET."
