In this post I'm beginning to decode Strawberry Swing, from Coldplay's 4th studio album, “Viva la Vida.” The award winning music video is a layered Occult ritual performance, where Illuminati mind-control programming is layered in with the exaltation of Venus, the Marian goddess. It is a dramatic and dynamic storyboard that illustrates how the world is being prepared for the coming Antichrist, offering an impressive array of details about the nature of the deception that will shroud the event. Here's the official video,
Coldplay - Strawberry Swing.I'll be providing several links, beginning with this set that should be useful for context.

At face value, the video is an entertaining superhero-rescues-captive-queen drama. While Coldplay's frontman Chris Martin poses on the floor, he is given the appearance of interacting with an artfully drawn world. It's a clever mix of stop-action animation and normal video that sets the costumed actor in scenes of colorful chalk drawings on a pavement stage. Each element conveys something of importance in the esoteric composition. I have to see this as a striking tribute to Stéphane Mallarmé, whose influence upon Coldplay became evident during an inquiry into the meaning of Viva la Vida's two videos. A study by the British Academy of Sound Therapy ranked the song, Strawberry Swing, as one of the most psychologically relaxing songs ever recorded, ranking in 5th place among those surveyed. There is a hypnotic effect, and that should not be taken in a figurative sense. The enchantment is real and influential, and it works toward the end that is concealed and revealed in the esoteric symbolism.
I'm going to start decoding the symbolism by identifying the scene that should be familiar to those of you who have been following recent posts to this blog. Like you see in this screenshot, Chris is sitting on the stove pipe hat of Eugène Delacroix, who painted himself into the scene of, Liberty Leading the People (1830).
This painting is featured on the Viva la Vida album cover and in the videos of the title song. The flag waving woman leading the revolution is Liberty, Marianne, the goddess. Concealed in the red of the painting's flag is a rose. She is that rose goddess who is known by many names. The name, Delacroix, means, “of the cross.” He painted himself under the hidden rose to embed the sign of the Rosicrucian order.
What is being demonstrated to us in Strawberry Swing's revolutionary battle scene is a resurrection. Chris, whose birth name is CHRISTopher, represents Christ, or Antichrist, to be more correct. He wears a mask to conceal his real identity. Only a relatively small number of people will be able to see past the mask and correctly identify the Antichrist. When we see him seated upon the hat of Delacroix-of-the-cross he is linked to the crucifixion. When a cloud of pipe smoke lifts him out of the scene it is a reenactment of the ascension of the resurrected Christ.
9 And after He had said these things, He was lifted up while they were looking on, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. 10 And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, behold, two men in white clothing stood beside them. 11 They also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come in just the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.” ~ Acts 1:9-11
It's not the genuine that is intended to be modeled to us, except as it is the requisite foundation as a carrier for the imprinting of the false.
The rose goddess is on hand because she is the key to that resurrection. Isis raises Osiris into Horus. This exposes the meaning of Viva la Vida (live the life) as a reference to attaining the immortality sought by Rosicrucians and others on the left hand path, and all the goddess worshiping multitudes.
For confirmation of that insight, consider how the sign of Jonah was dramatized prior to the emergence of the resurrected Chris(t). At the video marker 1:39, Chris is swallowed by a sea monster. We see him shining a flashlight inside what must be the belly, with a fish that must also have been ingested by the sea monster. He seems to be flushed out as through a drain.
for just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the sea monster, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. ~ Matthew 12:40
The Son of Man was dead while he was in the heart of the earth. This is illustrated in the garments Chris-Jonah wears while inside the belly of the sea monster. First, his trousers and shoes become beige to suggest he is half dead. As he's being flushed into the drain, he's clothed entirely in beige as a sign of his complete death. At marker 2:15, when he is just about to emerge from the stove pipe hat (Delacroix - of the cross), his garments become like the rainbow. Rainbow - light - the light body of resurrection life. It's the sign of Jonah! Now he's living the life, Viva la Vida, as dead Osiris is raised into Horus in the presence of the rose goddess of the album cover. Liberty Leading the People. Victory over death. (“The last enemy that will be abolished is death” - 1 Cor. 15:26)
The watery scene presents an extraordinary view of the counterfeit baptism, the dipping of the anti-bread from heaven and anointing of unholy spirit. (The Sign for the Bride) Baptism is a death and resurrection symbol. Being wet and submerged in the water represents death and the subsequent emergence is the raising to life. When we are shown the superhero's emergence from his watery grave it is like unto what John was shown in Revelation 13.
1 And the dragon stood on the sand of the seashore. Then I saw a beast coming up out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads, and on his horns were ten diadems, and on his heads were blasphemous names. 2 And the beast which I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were like those of a bear, and his mouth like the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. 3 I saw one of his heads as if it had been slain, and his fatal wound was healed. And the whole earth was amazed and followed after the beast; ~ Revelation 13:1-3
Death and resurrection; baptism. Chris was raised from the watery grave to sit upon the top hat as upon the throne given to him by the dragon. According to another version of the scenario, he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God.
3 Let no one in any way deceive you, for it will not come unless the apostasy comes first, and the man of lawlessness is revealed, the son of destruction, 4 who opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god or object of worship, so that he takes his seat in the temple of God, displaying himself as being God. ~ 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4
The risen antiCHRISt ascended to exalt himself high up, higher even than the goddess herself.
There are a few other key observations to be made about this scene. They provide yet another notable witness to what I've been declaring is coming in a most critical hour, in the Spring of 2015.
When the lawless one is baptized, the other beast of Revelation 13 will be present as the baptizer. He will be the Pope, whose identity is redundantly embedded in the scene. Most obviously, the rose goddess Marianne is Marian, Mary. She is, without question, the icon who represents the Romish church. Her high priest is the Pope. The other instance of the Papal baptizer is pictured during the baptism in this screenshot. That identity is richly supported!
Chris(t) is the one being baptized. We see him illustrated as my Lord might have appeared in the River Jordan, standing waist deep in the water. The wet half is beige, dead. The fish is John the Baptist. The setting of the Jordan River is John's workplace, his office, which explains the office furnishings. According to John 3:30, John spoke thus about Jesus: “ He must increase, but I must decrease.” Chris shows up and the fish has to leave. The vacating of that office of “Old Testament” prophet (Matthew 11) is pictured by the office chair that lies overturned on the floor.
The baptizing high priest is clearly identified as the Pope when the fish dons a hat. The Pope wears a hat like that one, but think about it: Who wears the fish hat but the Pope? The Romish priesthood calls it a mitre, and the fashion of it is easily traced to Dagon. Dagon was worshiped in Mesopotamia as a god who was half fish-half man, a merman.
It is in the midst of this scene that a set of very transient images appears. As the fish walks by Chris we witness a transit of Venus,
a celestial event where the planet appears to move across the face of the sun. The sequence consists of a few brief frames. Whenever there's a transit of Venus, the rare event draws the world's attention. Strawberry Swing leverages a celestial metaphor to demonstrate how Mary-Venus draws the world's attention to focus on her and her son, the sun god. In the moment where Venus transits the sun, the fish passes by Chris, revealing that they are one in meaning. Chris = sun (god); fish = Venus (goddess). Chris is photo realistic while the rest of the scene is a sketch, so he receives the visual focus for another metaphor. The sun is bright, while the transiting planet is dark as it occults the sun. The Antichrist is the center of attention, and all the other elements in the scene support him with appropriate context. This impressive scene conceals and reveals several elements of the baptism and anointing. Here's the scenario. When the lawless one is baptized, he receives the anointing of unholy spirit that is the spirit of antichrist. Another way to express the dynamic is that Horus is departing the underworld, passing through the opened celestial Silver Gate to join with a chosen vessel, a man, to manifest bodily in this realm. Put yet another way, it's Isis, raising Osiris into Horus. Transformed, the god-man beast is the lawless one, revealed. The screenshot illustrates the material realm's Papal-fish baptizer approaching Chris(t) to perform his official duty. The ceiling fan pictures an inverted 5 point star, the alignment witches interpret to mean, spirit into matter. Antichrist spirit into flesh.
I believe the walking fish further represents the unholy spirit that makes both the Pope and the lawless one beasts (Rev. 13), which is a composite of Osiris, Isis, Horus. The phallus of Osiris is implicit in the fish, emphasized as the fish is wearing the glans penis hat.
“The fish form may be considered as a phallic symbol as seen in the story of the Egyptian grain god Osiris, whose penis was eaten by (conflated with) fish in the Nile after he was attacked by the Typhonic beast Set.” (Wikipedia - Dagon)
Isis collected the 13 pieces of Osiris and united them (Code 13, but that awaits another post). Isis magickally substituted another phallus to engage in the reproductive act that equates to the raising of Osiris into Horus. The fish symbol represents Christ (ichthus), to some, but only in ignorance because forbidden symbols are idols, the Devil's domain. The fertility signaling fish represents the phallus of Osiris, and, as the female bears many eggs, the fish also represents the fertility goddess of the sea, Venus, Stella Maris, the Mother of God, the Queen Bee. The fish represents the union of Osiris and Isis, Horus, produced when there is a union of spirit and flesh that manifests in this realm as the Antichrist.
The transit of Venus scene occurs at precisely 1:47 into the video. It pictures the 47th Problem of Euclid: Osiris union Isis producing Horus!
This screenshot of the transit exposes several levels of symbolism. You may see in it a gender merging androgyny (Baphomet / Adam Kadmon) as the fish becomes one with Chris.
Here's a screenshot during the baptismal sequence where it looks like Chris is entering a UFO.
The golden light beaming from the flashlight makes allusion to another classic painting, The Baptism of Christ, by Aert De Gelder (1710). A disk appears in the heavens from which a light beams down to illuminate the baptism. There's a UFO-alien presence suggested, and the scene finds a match during the London Ceremony, Beijing Olympics, which is another bean spilling Occult presentation. All the elements present in the scene of the transit of Venus are fit symbols. The ceiling fan that signifies spirit into matter is also the 5 point star of Horus and the goddess. When the fish is under the star, think, star+fish, Venus.
In the Pope's baptismal office one should find an altar, and so we see the table.
There is a hall tree for hanging hats and garments. A tree is a goddess symbol. Their version has the form of a Maypole, which is a pole piercing a ring near the top. It's slightly obfuscated, with their fertility utility being embellished to better blend into the scene. The symbol of the magickal operation of the May Queen's sexual congress with the green man, Osiris is perfectly fit for the context.
The presence of the goddess of magick is evident throughout the video in what looks like a manhole cover in the upper left of the frame. Sometimes it resembles the 8 point star of Inanna-Ishtar. It's a beacon of her influence. For another insight into the meaning in this particular scene, consider that, “Dagon's consort was known only as Belatu, "Lady". Both were worshipped in a large temple complex called E-Mul, "House of the Star". ” (Wikipedia - Dagon)
A manhole provides access to underground utilities. In symbol, it's the portal to the underworld, the Duat, which is known as the celestial Silver Gate. On the other side of the chalk-drawn room is a door. It's the Golden Gate, opposite the Silver Gate. Supporting that identification, we see the expression of the Zodiac in the celestial setting of the transit of Venus with the fish in the water between the two stargates. The Silver Gate is located between Taurus and Gemini. Opposite that in the circle of the Zodiac is the Golden Gate, between Scorpio and Sagittarius. Between those stargates are the water and fish, Aquarius and Pisces. You could see the Milky Way as the water in this baptismal regeneration room. Theosophists identify the Milky Way as “the storehouse of celestial bodies-to-be” and a “kosmic nursery,” which has a direct bearing here.
If you're thinking about how smart the producers of the video are for encoding these things or how smart I am to figure stuff out, you're really missing the point. What you're seeing is the work of devoted servants.
There is a warring in the heavens, and earthly agents are engaged. Ephesians 6:10-17. Another striking celestial stargate transit sequence appears at the close of the video when a man walks his dog through the set on a leash. The dog is Anubis, the dog star, and the man is Osiris, Orion, until they pass through the moon and Isis to transit the Silver Gate. As they emerge from the Duat, the dog walker's identity becomes Horus. Chris(t) had just departed the scene, being welcomed with applause and warmly embraced. That modeled the reception of the lawless one at his apocalypse. The dog walk complements that scene's earthly-material perspective by looping back to illustrate the celestial-heavenly perspective. We hear the sound of passing traffic like they opened the door and left it open. Traffic lanes were opened for vehicles traveling down the celestial highway.
Remember I, Pet Goat II? There are notable parallels that validate that interpretation! As you can see in this screenshot of the "pet goat's" enclosure, the stick figures picture a man walking a dog on a leash. I recommend reading this post, Part 3 - Celestial Stargates - Isis, the Dendera Zodiac & I, Pet Goat GEMINI, to get more out of this parallel. Additional celestial symbolism in the Auschwitz camp set includes the bank of lights as the Pleiades. The peculiar barbed wire that looks like crows represents Corvus, the crow, on Hydra, the serpent. The 4 principle stars of Corvus serve stargazers as pointers to Spica, the alpha star in Virgo, implying the presence of the goddess. (As another link between the video scenes, I note that the Nazi guard dog would have been a German Shepherd, and the dog of Strawberry Swing looks like a mongrel of that same breed.) Watch
Coldplay - Atlas (Hunger Games - Catching Fire) to see the Zodiac and movements in the heavens featured. Watch for the appearance of a giant eye that is very obviously identified as Chris' Lord. Horus.More to follow - Lord willing!
Martin's crown and mantle (which he wears over the same clothes he wears in the other official video), resemble those of the French sovereigns of that Napoleonic period. In 1830, when Delacroix's, Liberty Leading the People, was painted, Louis was in exile. He had been appointed by his brother as the King of Holland, reigning from 1806 to 1810. The French had occupied the Hague, and King Louis would have sat upon the throne in the Ridderzaal. The orange pendants seen in the video illustrate how the monarchy had returned after his departure to the dynasty of William the Orange. The red, white and blue pendants in one scene indicate the rule of France. The downward triangle shaped pennants are feminine and more subtle goddess symbols. 
Chris appears like a giant in a couple scenes at The Hague. This complements and explains a puzzling line in the lyrics, spilling the beans about the real subject, a much more ancient ruler who is in exile, asleep as in a kind of death, and who will arise and return. He will be received with more acclaim than with King Louis' reception in 1840 in the Netherlands! 
That video provides more support for the analysis above. What is meant by “The Silence” is demonstrated in the closing scene. The king comes out of the darkness and declares, “Enjoy the Silence,” putting his finger to his lips. He strikes the classic Harpocrates pose, who is the boy Horus. Leading up to that we see very brief flashes of a long stemmed rose. The rose appears on the covers of the single and album cover (Violator - ! VIOlaTOR - and note that LA=12+1=13). The goddess, playing a supporting role behind the scenes. The wandering king wears the France's royal crown and robe like what Chris Martin wears in the derivative alternate Viva la Vida video, so the ornamental bees and comparable fleurs-de-lis and the The Royal Bee are given attention. He passes by trees, goddess symbols. 
He passes by one that presents a huge V as he walks. 5-Venus, Victory, the Virgin Mary, Viator, the voyager or traveler, Beatrix, Beatrice, BEE. Instead of a painting, Depeche Mode's king carries a wooden framed beach chair, which is what you sit in when you're on the beach gazing at the surf. It's a symbol of the adoration of Venus, born of the sea foam. Mary draws the world to herself, uniting them. The point is demonstrated at the end, with Harpocrates. The Silence is their great secret, modeled over and again. Horus is returning from exile to claim his throne. The rose-bee seafoam goddess brings him into the world. 
Together with the background imagery and the band's attire it suggests the scene is taking place inside the painting featured on their album cover, “Liberty Leading the People," by Eugène Delacroix. The connection between the rose and the painting has to do with the symbolic woman who waves the flag, Liberty. She is also known in France by the name, Marianne. “Marianne” is a portmanteau of Maria, or Mary, and Inanna. She is the ancient rose goddess who is becoming most widely venerated today as the Virgin Mary. The band is identified with the revolutionaries who are led by the rose goddess, and with the rose goddess herself as the petals drift off in the final scene. 
A couple seconds later he gestures another V with two fingers. Churchill's V for Victory - Victoria. Some would call it a peace sign, given what he's singing at the moment, and it is - a sign of the Queen of Peace. That same gesture was making the triangle eye - the Horus Eye. That's the sodomite gateway to illumination and, in the context, probably linked to what's called the Peace of Mary and Illuminati mind-control programming. He flashes another V at 1 minute in and then strikes his first “bent elbow” W goddess pose of the video at 1:05. That's the signature posture of Inanna-Ishtar. A brief second later, at 1:06, he gestures some owl ears to confirm the reference to Ishtar. The rings of string bracelets and the banding on their arms makes further reference to Ishtar. When Chris is awkwardly throwing his arms out behind him he's modeling a delta wing, making a V and bee wings, as a servant and soldier bee of the Queen's hive. Images of the rose pass through the background. More goddess dancing bee W-goddess moves follow, with a hands crossed over the chest at 2:04 to add another goddess gesture. At 2:50 we see the sky opening for a Marian apparition, with Chris doing a little hand magick in our faces. At 3:33 we see him worshipfully raise his hands against the mystical backdrop of the appearing goddess.
If you examine what the goddess Liberty carries in the featured painting you'll notice how a rose is concealed within the red of the flag. I don't doubt that Chris Martin is aware of that fact, and what it means on more than one level. What do you think inspired the video opening scene's morphing-fluttering red rose, or is it just there for no reason? Liberty is the rose goddess they worship and serve, aka Mary. Hiding the rose makes it occult, by definition.
The Statue of Liberty is an idol of the goddess honored by Delacroix and Chris Martin. It's linked to France in that exact period of time of the featured painting, and with Freemasonry as the French brotherhood's gift to their brothers in America. She is the goddess of their common revolution. She bears a torch and a tabula ansata, a tablet evoking the law. What law is this? Upon that tabula ansata is inscribed the date of the Declaration of Independence, July 4, 1776. A broken chain lies at her feet. Her law is rebellion. She is the Spirit of 76, and 7+6=13, rebellion. She is Mary, their rebellion. 
Their version conceals the head of an owl, the mark of Occult goddess worship. Alan Moore is responsible for the comic book and film. He has openly admitted to being a wizard and communicating with extradimensional beings. The main character of V for Vendetta stages revolutionary actions against the government. He's known as V, and we are led to see this as the Roman numeral of a room where he was kept. The number 5 is linked to Venus because of the points of the rose it traces out in the heavens. He leaves red roses with the victims he assassinates. Do you see the connections here? He wears a Guy Fawkes mask and follows in that revolutionary's footsteps. Guy failed in the famous Gunpowder Plot of 1605. “Remember, remember, the 5th of November...” the poetic tribute goes. Guy was a Catholic, leading Catholics in a revolt against King James I in attempt to install a Catholic Queen on the throne. It was a revolt led by the worshipers of Mary. You're connecting the dots with Viva la Vida, right?
Where else have we seen the red V symbol? In the TV series, “V” (for Visitors), the reptilian sky Queen was named Anna. Namesake: Inanna. She had a daughter named Lisa and her mother was named Diana. Three goddess names, three generations, modeling the Maiden, Mother, Crone. (Another example of triple goddess naming is in The Matrix, with the character named Trinity.) I'm not suggesting these are simply bad names but informing you how they are used in signal contexts. The blood red V is for 5-Venus and Victory, and ultimately through the Isis-Horus & Mary-Jesus (her counterfeit) in the bringing of their hopeful triumphant result of Victory over death. The Visitors were duping the world with false promises of healing, which has always been linked to the goddess apparitions. Another promised involved a gift of Blue Energy that would solve many problems, which I believe is linked to the blue-skinned goddess Shiva-Kali. I believe there is a connection between the V - for visitors and the Latin name Viator, meaning, “voyager, traveler,” which is the masculine form of, Beatrice, (Princess BEE - Great Britain) and, Beatrix, (Queen BEE - Netherlands). 
(Probably the inspiration for Baron de Coubertin choosing to award medals to the Olympian athletes - 
In a work from 1947 titled, Sun and Life, we see an expression of the hope of the illuminated. The open eye in the sun's forehead has to be seen as the eye of Ra or Horus. The page on a 
The exposed seeds in the Frida's painting are probably intended to represent the bull's testicles, fertile with seed. The male and female fertility imagery really is a strong thread that runs through her work. 
Sometimes the single V symbol is used for Venus and Victory, the goddesses. (Winston Churchill) Sometimes it's doubled to form V+V or W, like how Taylor Swift hand signals the VV or W in performing “22,” which happens to be the number of the letter V. In this image, she crosses her hands to make the double V. Crossing them forms another V between them. Triple V = vav (6th Hebrew letter) vav vav = 666. 
she would certainly have been exposed to the Marian Rosary and candle burning acts of veneration. Frida was born, lived and died in The Blue House in Coyoacán, just southwest of Mexico City. The Marian apparition known as Our Lady of Guadalupe had appeared in 1531 a few miles away, just northeast of Mexico City. Would her mother and others in her community have made the short pilgrimage to her wildly popular shrine? This would have been a normal part of their culture. I note how Matilde's heritage, and therefore her daughter's also, matched a feature of that apparition. Matilde was of “mixed Amerindian and Spanish ancestry.” One of the miraculous signs given by Our Lady of Guadalupe involved the Castilian (Spanish) rose growing in the land of the “Amerindian.” From Wikipedia:
