More Twin Peaks (and some The Prisoner) codes...
* Today is a very special day in Twin Peaks and in The Village of
the Prisoner. According to,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sirius
http://www.fourmilab.ch/cgi-bin/Yourtel
Sirius passed the Sun at 2:55 hours GMT early this morning. This
marks the beginning of the Egyptian New Year.
July 2 (in the USA), 1947 was a very special day too. On the
occasion of this 'heliacal rising of Sirius', *flying saucers*
(flying sorcerers) were invented by Freemasons (the Roswell
incident).
This is why UFOs are so important in the second part of Twin
Peaks and why the name 'Robertson' (the chairman of a CIA
UFO commitee) is used in Twin Peaks. There are many references
to Sirius in the second part of Twin Peaks and in the real world.
Since 1800 and 1900 ain't leap years, Independence Day in the
USA in fact refers to the helical rising of Sirius too.
* The white horse in Twin Peaks is called 'Sleipnir'. It is the
horse of Odin, the Nordic Mercury,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleipnir
This also explains the 'hippies' of the sixties and 'flower
power' (=safran, the yellow collouring agent, yellow being the
planetary colour of Mercury). There is a Donovan song about it:
Mellow Yellow.
* There ain't two Coopers in the final episode - there are two
Mercuries instead. Cooper is Mercury and in the Red room
(Osiris Judgement room) we see the giant (Osiris) and the dwarf
(Thoth, the Egyptian Mercury). So the phrase 'Doppelganger'
refers to *another Mercury* and not to another Cooper. Since
Mercury is the deity of the mirror, Cooper just sees *himself*
in the dwarf. The same code has been used in The Prisoner when
The Prisoner meets Number 1
This is why there is something wrong with the mirror in the end
when we see Bob. Cooper however is still Cooper (not Bob): he is
brushing his teeth and Thoth refers to tooth - and thus to Mercury.
The final shot of the series shows a cup of coffee (as the Swoosh
we can observe everywhere in the real world - and replaced by a
bike in The Prisoner, representing the Deaqd Dog), encoding for
a Solar Eclipse, and thus for Mercury. This is why Cooper drinks
a lot of black coffee throughout the series. The same codes are
present in 'The Prisoner'.
* Ben Van Horne is God. There is a Fish above his fire place (the
symbol of Christ and the greeting sign in The Prisoner), 'Horne'
refers to 'Taurus' (the constellation of Zeus) and he is the boss
of Twin Peaks. He also sits on a donkey (the symbol of God) and
wants to do a lot of 'Good things'. He says: 'It's the unvarnished
truth that I am looking for' and things like that.
However, there is a joke in the script to mislead us. 'Horne'
also refers to 'Horus' (the Egyptian Apollo) and 'Ben' refers to
'Ben ben' (the top of a pyramid - where Freemasons depict the Eye
of Horus and the Big Ben of London). Horus is the southern pharao
(Menes) that conquered the North of Egypt and Van Horne does a
similar thing in his version of the American Civil War.
Gerard also thinks he sees Apollo when he sees Van Horne because he
faints when he meets Cooper + Van Horne (Mercury + Apollo, the Dead
Dog - both himself and Bob) in the Hotel. A very smart joke, really.
...Note that Van Horne has a *retarded* son...
