In 1983 I was working on a construction site with the family business. My cousin was digging a deep trench in search of a water line we could tie into a room addition. This was in Sand Springs Oklahoma, not known as a scary town of witches, or was it?
The construction site was considered outside the city limits, and wasn't far from "Stoner Hill" an old hangout for hippies at the time. One could drive his tye-died Volkswagon van down a short path to the edge of a tall hill overlooking the Shell Creek area west of the city.
My cousin Michael Jean was a heavy equipment operator, and was skilled with the jaws of this back-hoe. He didn't want to rupture the water main, so I was in charge of keeping a close eye into the trench which was about 8 feet deep. While digging, I noticed a strange object shaken loose from it's earthen grave. I whistled loudly to Michael, and motioned for him to stop so I could jump into the trench so as to retrieve the cylindrical offering.
The buried object was an old "Lightning Jar," the kind used for canning, and had a glass lid with a metal wire clamp. I held the jar up to Michael, who wasn't nearly excited as I was to find this mysterious treasure.
I climbed out of the ditch which was over my head, and ran to a hose to wash off the soil. What could be in this old mason jar?
I was expecting some peaches, or other fruit often canned and kept for later enjoyment. But as I held up the jar in the light I stared into the blood red eyes of a Zozo! (Blackbird or Crowe)
It was amazingly preserved, and I wondered what stories it could tell! Why was it put into this tomb? Was it part of some witchy spell? Was I going to be cursed by an ancient warlock? I wasn't about to find out, so I carefully placed the spooky jar, and it's feathered omen back into it's earthly grave.
The Zozo, or blackbird has magical symbolic meaning. They are a very intelligent species, with complex songs that ring with flute like character. They often mimic other birds, and have been taught to talk In most parts of the world the raven is considered a prophet and a bad omen. The Arabs call it Abu Zajir which means "Father of Omens." In Ireland it was once domesticated for use in divination practices and the term "Raven's Knowledge" was applied to the human gift of second sight. Ravens deserting their nests were very bad omens and popular superstition declared that if the ravens ever fled the Tower of London, the monarchy would fall. In many areas of the ancient world, the sight of a raven flying to the right was a good omen, whilst a raven flying to the left was an evil one. Ravens and Crowes are the same speicies, the only difference is their size.
Eaters of carrion, ravens were messengers of death, pestilence, and battle. It was believed that these flesh-hungry birds could smell the scent of death upon a person before they died - even through the walls of a house. In paintings, the raven may be seen flying over battlefields, eager to feast on the dead. After the Battle of Armageddon, ravens will descend upon the lands of the wicked (Isa 34:11).
These birds were thought to have a special taste for the bodies of hanged criminals and to enjoy plucking out the eyes of sinners (Prov 30:17). Christians thought they carried off the souls of the damned and associated this bird with the Fall of Man and Satan who blinds sinners, dulls their moral senses, and feasts on their corruption.
In the Middle Ages, it was believed that to hear Raven’s caw was an omen of death. Sightings of the turnfalkens, ravens, and hearing their calls was a death omen to the Hapsburgs, the ruling family of the Austro/Hungarian Empire. Christians of that era believed that evil priests became ravens when they died.The beautiful song of the blackbird makes it a symbol of temptations, especially sexual ones. The devil once took on the shape of a blackbird and flew into St. Benedict's face, thereby causing the saint to be troubled by an intense desire for a beautiful girl he had once seen. In order to save himself, St. Benedict tore off his clothes and jumped into a thorn bush. This painful act is said to have freed him from sexual temptations for the rest of his life.
The word
Zozo originated in early basque, one of the oldest languages in history, dating to the stone age.
Zozo, while interpreted as a blackbird,
Zozomikote is "pair of blackbirds" (the beginning of April, and a
mythical figure said to occupy Mount Ubedi).
The Aquitanian and Basque languages are presently believed to be remnants of an Ice Age Paleolithic language spoken in Western Europe.
The blackbird represents those who are tempted by carnal pleasures.
Has Zozo the Ouija demon adopted these symbols of dark omens to play with the minds of men?
Demons and archetypal demons.. etc, some of their names were spoken to people in visions or during dark rituals and these names were written down. Alot of them are secret, but, these demon names are slipped into everyday terminology. The term Helter Skelter, made famous by The Beatles and others is likewise the name of an archetypal demon.
The names of actual demons are presented purposefully to us in everyday life in order to allow them access to us.
The Military campaign in Iraq known as "Shock and Awe," which is repeated by many to this day, and written in many history books, could actually be the clever disguise by the archetypal demon Shakanah! Interestingly enough SR-71 "Blackbirds" were used as stealth aircraft. It seems demons aren't the only vessels attempting to carry out their missions under the radar!
We have no way of knowing how often this kind of stuff goes on... every major corporation owned by the Illuminati not only has logos and symbols that are meant to influence us, they are most likely named in order to cast spells on us and introduce Demons into the world.
The song of the blackbird has been described as beautiful and esoteric, having the ability to put listeners into a trance like state. Is it mere coincidence that Jimmy Page joined the BLACK CROWES! Here the infamous "Zoso" symbol joins the nest!
Two Zozo's and one Zoso, sounds like a magic unison of song!
Like the crow and the raven, the blackbird is considered a bad omen. However, the sight of
two blackbirds sitting together is a symbol of peace and a good omen. On this live recording, the two blackbirds are bathing in a full moon, wings pointing towards the stars, or possibly Jimmy's ruling planet!
Was Jimmy Page the designer of this artistic rendering? The pairing with The Black Crowes was a success, and is considered to be some of his best playing since the demise of Led Zeppelin.
In 2009 rumors were rampant of a Led Zeppelin reunion tour. Robert Plant backed out despite quadrillions of dollars being thrown at the band members. It seemed he preferred complacency with a songbird of his own, the magical voiced Allison Krauss.
Page invited the stellar pipes of Myles Kennedy, a young fledgling who joined forces with x Creed band members, and fronted the hard rock band Alterbridge. Their second effort was simply entitled
"Blackbird."
The Led Zeppelin reunion never materialized, but I suspect the Zoso shall rise again.
Many other artists have incorporated blackbirds into their music and cover art.
The symbolism is everywhere, zozo's in music, advertising, bill-boards, song titles, lyrics, none more famous than The Beatles's "
Blackbird"
Blackbird singing in the dead of night.
Take these broken wings and learn to fly.
All your life you were only waiting for this moment to arive.
Blackbird singing in the dead of night.
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see.
All your life you were only waiting for this moment to be free.
Black bird fly, Black bird fly, into the light of the dark black night.
The "blackbird singing in the dead of night" symbolizes death. Lines like "take these sunken eyes and learn to see," and "take these broken wings and learn to fly" suggest a restoration to come in the afterlife. "All your life, you were only waiting for this moment to be free" suggests that life is a struggle for the release that comes with death. "Blackbird fly into the light of a dark black night" may refer to the light people see when about to die.
The Curse of The Movie "The Crow"
After this movie's release in 1994, "The Crow" became an instant cult favorite. Based, on a comic book and starring Brandon Lee, the film is about Eric Draven and his fiancee who are brutally murdered one night. Then, a year later, the Crow brings his soul back to seek vengeance and earn his eternal rest.
During rumors that "The Crow" set was cursed, many accidents happened. A carpenter was severely burned after the crane in which he was riding struck high-power lines; then a disgruntled sculptor who had worked on the set drove his car through the studio's plaster shop, doing extensive damage. Later, another crew member slipped and drove a screwdriver through his hand and a lorry full of equipment mysteriously went on fire.
And there's also Brandon Lee's (Eric Draven) mysterious death during filming. They were filming a flashback scene to show how he really died. He was going to be shot with .44 Magnum which was not a prop, but a fully functioning firearm. The gun was loaded with blanks, they are as loud as real bullets, but whe fired only the harmless cardboard wadding which they are packed is ejected from the gun. But when the gun was fired, Lee fell to the floor with a wound the size of a quarter in his left abdomen. Apparently, the metal tip of one of the dummy bullets had somehow pulled loose from its brass casing and killed Brandon Lee.
Even the T.V series, "The Crow: Stairway to Heaven" could not escape the curse of tragedy. Veteran stunt co-ordinator Marc Akerstream was killed while working on an explosive stunt involving a rowboat near a shoreline. Everything was working fine but when the stunt exploded a piece of debris shot up into the air, cleared a tree and struck Akerstream on the head. He was flown to a nearby hospital, where he later died.
Star Brandon Lee’s death paralleled the plot of gloomy ‘90s goth flick he was working on so closely, it’s hard not to chalk it up to the supernatural. Lee died on the set of The Crow after being shot by a gun that was supposed to be filled with banks, while his character was supposed to be shot with a gun he thinks is unloaded. Likewise, in the script, The Crow was killed the night before his wedding; Lee was to marry his fiancé once filming ended on the movie.
