Edom will be destroyed according to religious interpretations found mainly in certain eschatological and Bible-interpreting circles. The ancient kingdom of Edom is viewed as a prophetic prototype for a modern Western great power, often identified as the USA. This draws primarily on the prophetic books of Obadiah and Ezekiel. Edom’s greatest sin is repeatedly described as pride and arrogance. Its people feel invincible because of geographic position and military might—exactly as the USA is said to do—leading to arrogance and a false sense of security.

Globalist Agenda Coincides With Occult Timelines

Occult tradition reveals what the West can expect. The USA is to bring forth the Antichrist and trigger Armageddon in 2033.

    Ancient prophecies and underlying occult processes have become visible amid the strange war against Iran. Against all apparent logic, the USA launched a surprise attack after securing its demands in negotiations. Half a year later, critical facilities for global energy and food security continue to be destroyed almost daily, even though open war has not been continuous. The result is widespread devastation across a dozen Middle Eastern countries, with energy installations and merchant ships destroyed. The cumulative impact now strikes hard at the world economy, energy security and, soon, food supplies. Here we disclose information once reserved for initiates of secret societies concerning the USA’s prophesied and imminent fate.

    The Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn (G.D.) is best described as a hermetic, kabbalistic and magical secret society founded in London in the late 1880s. It has exerted enormous influence on modern Western esotericism. One need not believe in occultism or prophecy to be powerfully affected if influential forces in the world do believe in them.

    Magic Makers

    Hermeticism is the magical tradition derived from the mythical teacher Hermes Trismegistus from the Hellenistic period, focusing on the connection between man (microcosm) and the universe (macrocosm). Central to this is the idea of correspondence: “So above, so below.” Initiates work with alchemy, astrology, and magic to influence the world. The concept of “hermetically sealed” arose because alchemists used a special glass seal that was said to have been invented by Hermes himself to keep their experiments pure from impurities.

    The texts convey “secret” knowledge, gnosis (direct divine knowledge), which is hidden from the uninitiated masses but accessible to those seeking spiritual enlightenment.

    A central illustration within the Golden Dawn is the Diagram of the Fall, created in 1888 and based on the Kabbalistic Tree of Life. It depicts how divine energy fragmented, producing the material, unbalanced world. The theoretical roots reach to the third century; the first Tree of Life diagram appeared in the thirteenth century.

    The Fall draws on Revelation 12:9, where the “great dragon” is identified as “the ancient serpent… the Devil and Satan.” In Golden Dawn ritual texts for the grade Practicus (3=8) the figure is often called Leviathan, “the coiling serpent.” This grade is the fourth in the Outer Order hierarchy.

    The diagram shows the Tree of Life in chaos: seven spheres, entangled by the dragon, have fallen to the lowest level while the three uppermost (Kether, Chokmah, Binah) remain pure. A dragon with eight (7+1) heads coils upward; the heads represent unbalanced forces—seven nations or empires and the Antichrist. The image summarises occult knowledge in cosmology, demonology (Qliphoth) and esotericism, giving deeper magical meanings to figures such as the kings of Edom and the Dragon.

    Symbolism Maps Destruction of the West

The purpose of the degree is to balance and discipline the intellect and to learn to shape thought – and thus reality – through the spoken, magical word. Photo: Private collection / Nya Tider

    There is a direct link between Golden Dawn symbolism and the controlled destruction of the West, as well as to the doomsday prophecy overshadowing the regional war in the Middle East.

    A modern reading of Revelation chapters 12, 13 and 17, current in independent evangelical and charismatic eschatology—especially among Christian Zionists in the USA—holds that the dragon’s heads represent seven historical world empires that oppressed the Jews.

    In the Golden Dawn’s Diagram of the Fall these biblical texts receive an esoteric, occult reading.

    The beast’s heads stand for seven fallen nations and the unbalanced sefirot dominated by the Antichrist (called “the false crown,” Thaumiel, in the Qliphoth) and Amalek. Amalek, the primordial Jewish enemy, personifies Doubt; its gematria value equals that of the Hebrew word safek (doubt)—both 240. Its spiritual function is to cause doubt in Yahweh the Jewish deity.

    The balancing middle pillar represents spiritual Israel; the lowest central head is the Roman Empire, the material sphere where imbalance began in the year 33. Above it, in the hidden sphere Daath (Knowledge), lies the eighth head, a synthesis of the lower forces placed over the heart of Adam Kadmon, illustrating humanity’s separation from the divine.

    In this futurist, dispensationalist model the USA is the present and final empire before the end. Notable centres of such teaching include Bethel Church and Cornerstone Church (founded by John Hagee) in the USA.

    Talmudic Rituals

    On 12 April this year Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and a group of settlers performed Talmudic rituals at the Al-Aqsa Mosque on the Temple Mount. He has repeated the intrusion, most recently on Tisha B’Av (23 July), and formally authorised organised settler prayer there. Behind claims of Jewish sovereignty lie eschatological motives. Ben-Gvir supports the Temple Movement, which seeks a third temple as a prerequisite for the Messiah’s arrival. Under heavy police protection a participant performed full prostration—rare in modern Judaism—regarded by critics as a ritual provocation intended to accelerate end-time prophecies.

    Apocalyptic ritual. On April 12 of this year, Israeli Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir performed the ritual together with a group of settlers “Talmudic rituals” at the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem (pictured). The mosque stands on the Temple Mount where the first Jewish temple was built by King Solomon and where a new temple is to be built according to prophecies. Ben-Gvir has since repeated the intrusion several times, most recently during the fast day of Tisha B’Av on July 23, and in August he also formally approved that settlers may conduct regular, organized collective prayer in the area. Behind the motive of asserting Jewish sovereignty lies deeply eschatological (the doctrine of the end times and the end of the world) driving forces. Ben-Gvir supports the controversial Temple Movement, whose goal of building a third temple is seen as crucial for the coming of the Messiah (not to be confused with Jesus). Under heavy police guard, one of the group performed “full prostration” – a kneeling followed by a deep bow until the forehead touches the ground, a ritual act that is extremely rare in modern Judaism. Performing this at this specific location is seen by critics as a ritual provocation intended to hasten the prophecies of the end of time. In both Jewish and Christian eschatology, the battle for this location is seen as the starting point for the global final battle against “Gog and Magog”. Through his actions, Ben-Gvir acts not only politically but as a magical catalyst to force the Day of Judgment and the Messianic Age. Still image: The Cradle/Telegram

    Both Jewish and Christian Zionist eschatology view the struggle over this site as the opening of the global final conflict against Gog and Magog. Ben-Gvir thus acts not only politically but as a catalyst forcing the messianic age.

    The West will be forced to its knees: “The most powerful nations in the world will have to kneel. That’s what happened to Egypt. That’s what will happen to America. That’s what will happen to Germany, France, London, England, and that will happen to Poland. That’s what will happen to Russia and that will happen to China. But we’re almost there now. It’s happening. It’s now. They’re all going to kneel, and the Western nations in particular are going to fall hard for how they’ve treated us for the last 2,000 years since the destruction of the Second Temple.” The words were spoken by Rabbi Yom Tov Glaser, Orthodox Jew, and widely circulated on social media after March 2026 as an example of the messianic and eschatological rhetoric that is now increasing in intensity.

    Armageddon

    In 2033 Armageddon occurs: the beast’s rule is crushed after the USA is destroyed by divine intervention, depicted as the flaming sword.

    Initiates state that Agenda 2030 is the political instrument for installing the world order (the eighth head) against which the prophecies warn. The neat year 2030 was chosen for practical UN decade-goal reasons and serves as a public cover for an occult process culminating 2029–2033.

    The World Economic Forum’s “Great Reset” acquires a far more ominous meaning in this light.

    Occult, from Latin occultus, means “hidden”—knowledge of forces invisible to ordinary sight. In certain modern Christian interpretations the Antichrist is a soon-coming physical figure associated with the eighth head. American television preachers, working from dispensationalism, identify the USA as the seventh and last great empire before Armageddon. “The great deceiver” is expected to appear amid global war, chaos and famine, promising peace under his own dictatorial rule.

    In the Old Testament Edom is the kingdom founded by Esau, twin of Jacob (later Israel). Because of their perpetual conflict, Jewish mysticism and Kabbalah treat “Edom” as a code for spiritually hostile pagan powers—first Rome, now the Western world led by the USA.

    Charles A. Weisman’s 1996 book Who is Esau-Edom?, written from a Christian Identity perspective, concludes that the USA is modern Edom, a material power destined for destruction because of its pride.

    Weisman, who lived a completely isolated life outside the public eye until his death in 2003, sums up the ultimate goal in the following quote: “The ancient and deep conflict between Esau and Jacob still exists today, turning the world upside down. Edom’s greatest sin has always been pride – building its nest among the stars and feeling invincible because of its military might.”

    The beast coils around Israel, attacking from all sides. The central heads have historically been decisive for Jewish and Israeli existence and are viewed as spiritual enemies often at war with one another.

    The USA, through economic and military power and perceived arrogance, is said to clear the path for the eighth head (Antichrist). Without the seventh head’s technological dominance and protection of Israel—enabling construction of a third temple—the Antichrist would have no throne.

    Rigged to Fail. “The Controlled Dismantling of the American Empire” is written by Jeff Berwick, a Canadian crypto pioneer and the founder of Dollar Vigilante. He argued back in 2020 that the US and the West are being deliberately dismantled and that Donald Trump’s mission is the exact opposite of what he claims – Make America Great Again (MAGA).

    Unique source material. Charles A. Weisman’s book Who is Esau-Edom? (1996) is a central text for understanding how eschatological and radical circles interpret today’s major politics in the Middle East. Written from the perspective of the American Christian Identity movement, the book concludes that the United States constitutes the modern “Edom” – a material superpower destined to be destroyed because of its own arrogance.

    According to the prophecy, Edom/USA ultimately incurs divine wrath in the form of the flaming sword that destroys the beast on the day of judgement. Even while fighting on Israel’s side against a coalition led by Magog/Russia (including Persia/Iran), it is the USA that finally triggers doomsday.

    An important piece of the puzzle in this model is that both the Roman Empire, placed at the bottom in the middle, and the USA (the new Roman Empire) at the top in the middle, are called Edom and share the eagle as a symbol.

    The Great Deception

    There is a direct connection between the Golden Dawn and the ongoing controlled destruction of the Western world, as well as to the doomsday prophecy that has recently cast an ever-increasing shadow over the ongoing regional war in the Middle East.

    Actors seeking fulfilment of the prophecy therefore need to control the USA, draw it into war and ruin, and encourage arrogant, materialistic, warlike behaviour—precisely what is observed today.

    Christian Zionists in the United States believe that the heads of the dragon represent seven historical world empires that have oppressed or controlled the Jews. In this model, the United States is seen as the current and last empire before the Day of Judgment, a view characterized by futurism and dispensationalism.

    Jeff Berwick’s book The Controlled Dismantling of the American Empire may have seemed like a “conspiracy theory” in 2020, but not anymore. It also makes sense if there is an invisible hand that wants to fulfill a prophecy in which the US and the West have a key role in which they must be destroyed in the process.

    Kabbalistic schemes divide human history into three 2,000-year ages totalling 6,000 years: Tohu (Emptiness), Torah (Law) and the present Messianic Age. Many civilisations speak of cyclical cataclysms every 6,000 years, the last being Noah’s Flood. Groups influenced by both Christianity and occultism take Jesus’ death and resurrection in the year 33 as the pivotal point.

    Thus 2033 marks 2,000 years. Despite calendar complexities, occult actors navigate by this official timeline.

    The prophecy places the start of the seven-year tribulation in 2026, when the Antichrist appears as a false peacemaker. His mask falls in 2029 and true misery begins; that autumn he enters a completed Third Temple after the required sacrifices.

    When the beast is crushed, imbalance and the split “between the Father on high and the Mother on earth” cease.

    According to Golden Dawn teaching the flaming sword is withdrawn and Leviathan’s grip is released. Humanity’s heart is liberated; the four guardians—bull, man, eagle and lion—are reunited. Original harmony returns to the Tree of Life. That restoration does not, however, mean that our present civilisation and world survive.

    The Tree of Life (Hebrew: Etz Chaim) is shown here in the influential Golden Dawn order’s specific version, called Minutum Mundum (The Little World). As an ancient Kabbalistic symbol for both the creation of the universe and human consciousness, the diagram consists of ten interconnected spheres, called sefirot, and twenty-two paths. In this version, the tree is colored according to the “Queen’s Scale” (a specific color coding that in esotericism represents how divine energy takes form in the created world). For a seeker, the tree acts as a map for spiritual development. By walking up the paths and being initiated in degrees, such as Practicus, the degree (3=8) – which is de facto the fourth degree of the order – the individual balances his intellect, emotions and will. The degree is tied to the sphere Hod, which in the system’s “Queen’s Scale” (color coding) glows orange. Hod represents the disciplined intellect and the magical formulation – the point where thought is given structure and power through the word. Photo: Nya Tider

     

     

    The Rose Cross Lamen is a central key symbol of the Second Order of the Golden Dawn and is worn around the neck. The unique piece of jewelry pictured, which belongs to a private collection, functions as a spiritual and astrological compass that unites the human (the cross) with the divine (the rose) to symbolize spiritual perfection. It also functions as a “spiritual calling card” or a heraldic weapon that represents the practitioner’s magical rank, power, and connection to the divine forces. Through its colors and alchemical signs, it functions as a protective talisman that balances the four elements during magical rites. The fact that ritual objects of this caliber are still used in the field is deeply relevant; Iranian authorities reported earlier this year that they had seized “magical papers” and “cursed Jewish talismans” in Tehran, which they claim are being used by foreign intelligence services in an ongoing global “occult warfare.” Photo: Private collection / Nya Tider

     

    Black Obsidian Mirror. This unique black obsidian mirror, resting on a ritual altar cloth depicting John Dee’s famous work table (The Enochian Holy Table of Practice), belongs to a private collection and is actively used for esoteric studies of consciousness. The method – historically called scrying or occult gazing – is the historical predecessor to what the American military intelligence program Stargate came to call Remote Viewing. According to history, the Enochian system was originally dictated by angelic beings to the British scientist and court astrologer Dr. John Dee in the 16th century. He ruled much of Elizabeth I’s court, and thus England, through his immense intellectual and esoteric power; as Europe’s foremost expert on both navigation and occultism at the time, Dee was believed to possess the ability to ritually bind spirits and manipulate geopolitical events. According to the records, these specific geometric signs, the letters and colors of the sacred angelic language, hide the apocalyptic keys that will be activated at the end of time to open the gates and trigger the world-destroying cataclysms described in the Book of Revelation.

    Enochian Breastplate. This enamel pendant with 24-karat gold details recreates Dr. John Dee’s historic Enochian Lamen (Enochian Breastplate). The intricate grid pattern in the center, surrounded by the unique letters of the sacred angelic language, acts as a ritual compass to channel and balance the extreme and potentially dangerous cosmic forces during ongoing rites. According to Dee’s preserved 16th-century diaries, these specific talismans are directly connected to the processes and elemental gates expected to trigger the end times. These Enochian timelines today offer an important interpretive key to the ongoing geopolitical escalation; for the occult and eschatologically inspired networks operating behind the scenes of great power politics, these ancient systems constitute a ritual blueprint. By fomenting chaos and war in the Middle East, these forces are acting to fulfill the prophecies that are expected to culminate in the final battle at Armageddon.

    The inflation hoax

    Yes, prices are rising, but not for the reasons the Federal Reserve says. When I say inflation is a hoax, I mean the purported cause is a hoax. The Fed is fighting a consumer inflation, a “demand-pull” inflation. But what we are experiencing is a supply-side inflation caused by the Covid lockdowns and economic sanctions that closed businesses, disrupted supply chains, and broke business relationships while reducing energy supplies to the UK and European countries, thus forcing up costs in a globalized economy.
