The Two Brothers

About ten years ago at this time, the world was abuzz with rumours of impending doom. The worst of these was the prediction (elevated by some to absolute conviction), that the entire world would be destroyed on the date of the mid-winter solstice on December 21, 2012.

Of course we all know that the world didn’t end on that day. In fact nothing of any consequence happened that would cause this date to be remembered, other than the fact that the so-called “end-date” of the Mayan Long-Count Calendar proved to be false.

As I indicated in my article 2012 and the Mayan Calendar, there was no reason to doubt that the last day of the Thirteenth B’ak’tun would not be followed by the first day of the Fourteenth B’ak’tun without any particular fuss or fanfare, exactly as the Mayans themselves expected.

In fact, as I explained in the article, this entire scenario had been inflicted upon the Mayan people by a motley cast of Western writers and researchers, none of whom had bothered to investigate the true facts behind the Long-Count Calendar before rushing off to print their apocalyptic stories.

Although many of these writers had died prior to 2012, those who were still alive, like Graham Hancock, John Major Jenkins and the celebrated American anthropologist Michael D. Coe, were forced to concede that their predictions of global destruction linked to December 21st, 2012, were wrong.

The world-wide circus associated with this supposed end-date proved to be a considerable embarrassment to the Maya themselves. As the President of the National Mayan Council of Elders, Don Alejandro Cirilo Oxlaj (also known by the name of “Wandering Wolf”), remarked at the time:

“2012 is not the end of the world, nor did we ever predict that it would end: not now, not at the end of our Long Count calendar, not on December 21, 2012. Do not trust self-proclaimed elders, gurus and pseudo scientists who, for their own personal gain, create fear in the name of the Maya.”

“Far from being a date on a calendar when something will automatically happen, the elders say that it is up to us how we traverse these challenging times. The new Sun will come, but if we don’t change our destructive and disharmonious ways, many may not see it. We are not powerless over something happening to us; we are happening to the Earth and to each other.” (View Source)

“Wandering Wolf” explained that it is our thoughts and actions that have been responsible for creating a world that is out of balance, and that is these same thoughts and actions that must be rebalanced in order for us to avoid yet more suffering, not only for ourselves, but for all created life.

He said that according to the Mayan Long-Count Calendar, we are approaching the Year Zero, which is the end of another period of the Sun. This is a period lasting 5,200 years and ending with 60-70 hours of darkness, bringing to an end the fifth age of the Sun by their calendar. “Wandering Wolf” went on to add this chilling warning:

“There will be huge problems. Catastrophes and cataclysms will befall us.”

Like the Maya, the Hopi Indians of Arizona have a similar prophetic tradition. They too believe that there have been previous world ages, each of which ended in a global catastrophe. But whereas the Maya believe that we are now living in the 5th world age, the Hopi consider the 5th age to be the one that is about to unfold on the planet.

The Hopi predict that the new world that is about to dawn upon the Earth will be heralded by the arrival of two Kachinas, one coloured blue and the other red. According to Hopi tradition, Kachinas are considered to be spirit teachers of nature that act as messengers of Maasaw, their Creator of the Earth.

As we find recorded in Last Cry, Native American Prophecies, Tales of the End Times written by Dr. Robert Ghost Wolf:

In the final day we will look up in the heavens
and we will witness the return of the two brothers
who helped to create this world in the birthing time.

This end time prophecy makes it clear that the above verse refers to a celestial event, for the “two brothers” will be seen “in the heavens”. It also mentions that these two brothers will be the same as those that assisted in the “birthing” of the current world age, which was also a time of great turmoil across the face of the earth.

The exact nature of these two brothers becomes clearer from subsequent quotations.

   When the Blue Star Kachina makes its appearance 

in the heavens the 5th world will emerge. 

This will be the day of purification.

The return of the Blue Kachina will be the forewarning

that tells us there will soon be a new day,

a new way of life and a new world coming.

Not far behind will come the Purifier,

the Red Kachina who will bring the day of purification.

When the Purifier comes we will see him first as a small red star

which will come very close and sit in our heavens watching us.

Watching to see how well we have remembered

the sacred teachings.

Then one morning we will awaken to a Red Dawn.

The sky will be the colour of blood and many things will begin

to happen that right now we are not sure of their exact nature,

for much of reality will not be as it is now. 

From the above descriptions, it seems obvious that the Hopi prophecies revolve around the appearance in the skies above earth of two large comets. One will come as a warning to humanity to change their ways, while the second will come as the “Purifier”, to cleanse the earth and make it new.

The reference to one morning when we will awaken to a Red Dawn, where the sky will be the colour of blood, bears an uncanny resemblance to the words of Immanuel Velikovsky. As quoted previously from the time of the Biblical Exodus, when the world was confronted by a large comet:

“The comet was on its way from its perihelion and touched earth first with its gaseous tail…One of the first signs of this encounter was the reddening of the earth’s surface by a fine dust of rusty pigment. In sea, lake and river this pigment gave a bloody coloring to the water.” (Worlds in Collision)

It is also strikingly reminiscent of various quatrains of Nostradamus that were quoted in the previous instalment, where he writes about “false dust”, “red hail” and “water coloured by blood” as set out below:

Century Two – Verse 46

After great misery for humanity, a greater one comes when the great cycle of the centuries is renewed. It will rain blood, milk, famine, war and plague, Fire will be seen in the sky, dragging a trail of sparks.

Century Five – Verse 90

In the Cyclades, Perinthus and Larissa, in Sparta and the entire Pelopennesus: A very great famine, plague through false dust, lasting nine months throughout the whole peninsula.

Century Six – Verse 38

The enemies of peace, the profligate ones, after having conquered Italy: The bloodthirsty king, red will be revealed, Fire, bloodshed, water coloured with blood.

Century Eight – Verse 77

The antichrist swiftly annihilates the three, Twenty-seven years his war will last. The heretics will be dead, captive, exiled; Blood, human bodies, water and red hail covering the earth.

Century Ten – Verse 60

I weep for Nice, Monaco, Pisa, Genoa, Savona, Siena, Capua, Modena and Malta: Blood from on high and the sword for a gift, Fire, earthquake, water, an ill-timed alliance.

The idea that a comet might be the source of poisonous “red dust” that could contaminate the waters of the earth, and be responsible for plagues and other skin diseases, probably never occurred to the American astronomer Fred Whipple, when he first formulated his theory that comets were little more than “dirty snowballs”.

However, all of that changed in 1999 when NASA initiated an ambitious space mission known as project Stardust. They launched a robotic space probe that was designed to fly close to Comet Wild 2, collect dust samples from its Coma, and then return these samples to the earth.

This mission proved to be spectacularly successful, for the entire sample collection was ejected from the space probe, and survived a perilous descent through the atmosphere of earth before landing safely on the sands of Utah in January, 2006.

When these samples were later analysed in the laboratory, scientists were surprised to find that the dust particles were not of uniform size. In addition to particles of extremely fine dust, they also found other particles that were much larger than had been expected.

These particles were found to consist of iron and copper sulphide minerals. Scientists had therefore found hidden in the Coma of Comet Wild 2, the very water soluble dust particles that Velikovsky had predicted were responsible for the initial plagues that afflicted the earth at the time of Moses.

As explained in the extract from Worlds in Collision quoted above, the presence of iron particles would have accounted for the “red dust” that showered the entire planet and turned the waters into “blood”, while the presence of copper sulphide would have made these bloody waters toxic.

So the key question to be asked from the data obtained from Project Stardust is this. If iron and sulphur minerals have been found to be present in the dust particles in the tail of Comet Wild 2, then how likely are they to be present in the tails of other comets as well?

The answer is very likely indeed, since astronomers are in general agreement that comets that come from similar regions of deep space are more than likely to be composed of similar constituent materials.

And if that is the case, then the Hopi prediction of awakening one day to a red dawn where the sky will be the colour of blood, begins to become a scientifically viable possibility.

As we have seen, according to Hopi prophetic tradition the present world age will end with the appearance of “two brothers”, the two Kachinas who will preside over the destruction of the old world, and the formation of the new.

And as has been pointed out, these “two brothers” are described in language which makes it evident that the Hopis are talking here about the arrival in the skies of earth of two large comets.

For those people who are interested in the future of our planet, and who have studied the prophetic works of various societies, it is no coincidence that the appearance of every new comet has been greeted with doom-laden associations.

People all over the planet are becoming increasingly aware of the predictions of the Bible, Nostradamus, the Maya, the Hopi and others, which all implicate comets as the agents of destruction.

It seems clear from the events that are unfolding around us at this time, that we are now approaching the apocalyptic climax that has long been predicted by the prophets of old, and that we are the generation that will live to experience these cataclysmic events.

But as “Wandering Wolf” has emphasized in his remarks quoted above, the events that are shortly to unfold on the earth are not the result of the inanimate forces of nature acting blindly upon us.

Instead, they are the direct result of what we ourselves have been doing to the earth and to each other. And if we wish to protect ourselves from what is coming, we need to address our inner thoughts and actions, rather than stock up on food or look for underground shelters or places of safety.

This advice has been repeated by the late Robert Ghost Wolf, an accomplished artist and author who possessed many gifts that earned him recognition with many indigenous tribes in both North and South America, as a Spiritual Healer and Ceremonial Leader. He died on December 21, 2005.

During an interview with famous late-night radio talk-show host Art Bell, during which he talked about the prophecies of the Hopi Elders, Robert Ghost Wolf was asked whether he had anything to say in closing. He replied:

”I think the most important thing that we can do now, is to realize that we are going to experience things that we have not experienced before. We’re going to see things that we never even conceived that we could see. We’re going to go through changes.

“We’re going to go through trials. The most important thing that we can do is to turn inward because, if we turn inward and we open up the inward, then that which happens outside will be a result of what we have opened up inside. If we keep looking outward and forget the inside, then we’ll be lost in the illusion.”
