The Precessional Cycle of the Holy Cross

The first frame of the Holy Cross Movie shows Earth at its current precessional position--with Earth's "North Celestial Pole" (NCP) residing over 5° sidereal Gemini and the "Vernal Point" (VP) lying at 5° sidereal Pisces. (The vernal point is always 90° west of the NCP.) This position of Earth's pole creates the current erect cross as seen in the ecliptic plane--with the MOVING vernal axis lying perpendicular to the FIXED galactic equatorial axis.

The intersection of Earth's celestial equator (the green disc) with the ecliptic plane (the blue disc) creates the MOVING vernal axis. The intersection of the ecliptic plane (the blue disc) with the galaxy's equatorial plane (the violet disc) creates the FIXED galactic equatorial axis--lying at 5° sidereal Sagittarius / Gemini.) Five degrees sidereal Sag, the north galactic node, is called the "Gate of God." The opposite south node, at 5° sidereal Gemini, is called the "Gate of Man."

The westward precessional movement of Earth's pole causes the vernal axis to precess around the ecliptic as well--creating the "Cycle of the Holy Cross"--the timepiece governing the evolutionary unfoldment of human consciousness. One complete cycle takes about 25,000 Earth years. To learn more about Earth's precession and the relationship between the sidereal and tropical zodiaks, please see the Sidereal Astrology web page.

The slow rotation of the entire geometry in the animation does not occur in nature but was added to provide additional perspective--allowing the viewer to see not only the two fixed planes from different angles but also the forming of the cross from different angles.
precession: Earth's pole in Pisces

As Earth's pole moves another 90° through the cycle, the NCP will reside over 5° sidereal Pisces and the VP will lie at 5°sidereal Sagittarius. This orientation of Earth's NCP, and its location in the heavens, I dub the "Primordial Origin." This polar position marks the natural beginning and ending of the precessional cycle for several reasons. Notice that at this time Earth's pole lies most parallel to the galactic plane (to the violet disc). Thus, Earth's pole (the backbone governing Earth's evolutionary unfoldment) lies submersed in and is imbued with Galactic Light--unified within the plane of galactic awareness. Primordial Origin lies at the most northern point along the galactic plane. In addition, the vernal axis lies at rest upon the galactic equatorial axis, with the Vernal Point residing at 5° sidereal Sagittarius--upon the primary galactic node, upon the "Gate of God." This is the galactic node closest to the Heart Center of our Galaxy, the primary reference for the sidereal zodiak--making the obvious zero-point reference on the ecliptic plane for the Holy Cross cycle. (Galactic Center lies in a direction just south of the Gate of God along the galactic equator--not shown.)
