ORMUS the Word

<>Now if that isn't heavy enough for you, when I found out that the name for the golden tree of life was the ORME, ormus or ormes. And the name of my patent is Orbitally Rearranged Monatomic Elements. In the Book of Isaiah, it says a latter day David, a descendant of the Davidic blood line, my cousin, bless her soul joined the Mormon Church, and they had her do her genealogy, and my great-great-great grandmother, was Hanna de Guise, daughter of Christopher de Guise, brother of Charles or Claude de Guise, who if you got a copy of "Holy Blood Holy Grail" there, Charles or Claude de Guise is in the book. Nostradamus worked for the de Guise family and Nostradamus prophesied by 1999 the occult gold will be known to science. Very specific prophecy, very exact dates, very precise. And a descendent of this family, a latter day David, is the one who's to plant the Golden Tree of Life.

One of the passages from Holy Blood, Holy Grail that Hudson is probably referring to is:

In 1188 the Ordre de Sion is also said to have modified its name adopting the one which has allegedly obtained to the present-the Prieure de Sion. And as a kind of subtitle it is said to have adopted the curious name “Ormus.” This subtitle was supposedly used until 1306-a year before the arrest of the French Templars. The device for “Ormus” was m and involves a kind of acrostic or anagram which combines a number of key words and symbols. Ours means “bear” in French--Lrrsus in Latin, an echo, as subsequently became apparent, of Dagobert II and the Merovingian dynasty, Orme is French for “elm.” Or, of course, is “gold.” And the M that forms the frame enclosing the other letters is not only an M but also the astrological sign for Virgo-connoting, in the language of medieval iconography, Notre Dame.

Our researches revealed no reference anywhere to a medieval order or institution bearing the name Ormus. In this case we could find no external substantiation for the text in the Dossiers secrets, nor even any circumstantial evidence to argue its veracity. On the other hand, Ormus does occur in two other-radically different-contexts. It figures in Zoroastrian thought and in Gnostic texts, where it is synonymous with the principle of light. And it surfaces again among the pedigrees claimed by late eighteenth-century Freemasonry. According to Masonic teachings, Ormus was the name of an Egyptian sage and mystic, a Gnostic “adept” of Alexandria. He lived, supposedly, during the early years of the Christian epoch. In A.D. 46 he and six of his followers were supposedly converted to a form of Christianity by one of Jesus’ disciples, Saint Mark in most accounts. From this conversion a new sect or order is said to have been born, which fused the tenets of early Christianity with the teachings of other, even older mystery schools. To our knowledge this story cannot be authenticated. At the same time, however, it is certainly plausible. During the first century A.D., Alexandria was a veritable hotbed of mystical activity, a crucible in which Judaic, Mithraic, Zoroastrian, Pythagorean, Hermetic, and neo-Platonic doctrines suffused the air and combined with innumerable others. Teachers of every conceivable kind abounded, and it would hardly be surprising if one of them adopted a name implying the principle of light.

According to the Prieure's own documents, its history is long and convoluted. Its earliest roots are in some sort of Hermetic or Gnostic society led by a man named Ormus. This individual is said to have reconciled paganism and Christianity[10]

[p.130] What now, brother? We have tried almost everything, and nowhere have we found peace. When may we hope for that, and where shall we seek it? Time, as the saying is, has slipped between our fingers. Our early hopes are buried with our friends. The year 1348 has left us solitary and bereaved; and has taken from us what all the wealth of Ormus and of Ind could never replace.

"High on a throne of royal state, which far Outshone the wealth of Ormus and of Ind, Or where the gorgeous East with richest hand Showers on her kings barbaric pearl and gold, Satan exalted sat, by merit rais'd To that bad eminence."

Ormus and Ind - presumably Ormus was a Persian country perhaps related to the strait of Hormuz

Account of the Voyage of Ralph Fitch, Merchant of London. This part of the account pertains to the year 1583.

Hormuz, Strait of, strategic waterway, 30 to 50 mi (48 to 80 km) wide, between the PERSIAN GULF and the Gulf of Oman, controlling ocean traffic to and from the oil-rich Persian Gulf area. Located in the strait are Qishm Island (Iran) and three other islands—Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb, and Abu Musa—seized by Iran (1971) but also claimed by the United Arab Emirates.[1]

A plate in Braun-Hogenberg's Civitates Orbis Terrarum, Cologne 1577, gives a stylised view of Hormuz. The town and the wind towers are prominent but there does not appear to be any indication of the fort.

The 17th Century map clearly indicates the bell shaped island of Hormuz (‘Ormus’) at the Strait of Hormuz, the islands of ‘Larequa, Queixome’ and ‘Anga’ with sketches of the various fortifications including ‘Feitoriados Igrezes’ and ‘Comoram’ on the Persian mainland. To the left of the map, with north lying to the right, is a rugged brown depiction of the Musandam Peninsula with six outlying islands, one named ‘Ascalimas’ and the other ‘Cabodemo·Nsandam’.

Make what you like of this webpage, it is merely here to entertain, guide, and possibly teach. Watusi is a nom de guerre for Ormus, a mysterious person, about whom little has been said. Ormus is a kind of anagram or acrostic which combines a number of key words and symbols. References are to bears, elms and gold. It figures in Zoroastrian and Gnostic texts, where it is synonymous with the principle of light. According to Masonic teachings, Ormus was the name of an Egyptian sage and mystic, a Gnostic "adept" of Alexandria. In A.D. 46 Ormus is said to have conferred on his newly constituted "order of initiates" a specific identifying symbol-a rose or red cross.

The legend of Ormus, the Egyptian Priest converted in apostolic times to Christianity, and transforming Egyptian Rites into a mode suitable to the Aeon of Osiris is, at least allegorically, a fair hint of the orderly continuity between ancient Near Eastern religions and the Christian Succession in the Eastern Churches, making it a suitable vehicle for continuity in the Aeon of Horus.

11. Am I right that you choose to name these materials ORMUS elements? How did you get this name. For this last question I am just curious, because I am a member of group named ORMUS, consisting of volunteers that gather, select and transport clothes, food, medical supplies, beds, bicycles, sewing machines etc. to support the lives of many in Romania.

According to Masonic teachings, Ormus was the name of an Egyptian sage and mystic, a Gnostic 'adept' of Alexandria who may have lived during the early years of the Christian epoch. In A.D. 46 he and six of his followers were supposedly converted to a form of Christianity by one of Jesus' disciples, Mark in most accounts. From this conversion a new sect or order is said to have been born, which fused the tenets of early Christianity with the teachings of other, even older mystery schools.

This story is plausible enough. During the first century A.D. Alexandria was a veritable hotbed of mystical activity, a crucible in which Judaic, Mithraic, Zoroastrian, Pythagorean, Hermetic and Neo-Platonic doctrines suffused the air and combined with innumerable others. It would hardly be surprising if one of the teachers adopted a name implying the principle of light.

In A.D. 46 Ormus is said to have conferred on his newly constituted 'order of initiates' a specific identifying symbol - a red or a rose cross. We may see in Ormus the origins of the so-called Rose-Croix, or Rosicrucians.

According to HBHG, the secret order of the Prieuré de Sion, which supposedly guards this secret of the lineage of Jesus, appended to its name, at one point, that of Ormus (p.122). The name Ormus was written in such a way that the letter "m" was formed by the symbol for the astrological sign of Virgo - which the authors assert can be read as "Notre Dame" and indicates Mary Magdalene. Later on in the book, they propose that Mary Magdalene was the wife of Jesus. (By the way, the Greek text places a conjuction between Mary, or Maria, and Magdalene. That conjunction can be translated as "as" or "in truth," "verily.")

A likely origin for the name Ormus, according to the authors, is one Ormus, a gnostic sage and mystic who , according to Masonic teachings, lived at Alexandria, in

Egypt

, during the beginning of the first millennium CE. Ormus is said to have started an order in which the tenets of Christianity were blended with those of older pagan mystery schools. The symbol of this order was the rose cross, or Rose-Croix (HBHG, pp. 122-123).

How the authors go from this Ormus to equating the symbol for Virgo, by which the name was written by the Prieuré de Sion, to a "woman" called Magdalene is beyond me. If this Ornus was an initiate in pagan mysteries, it seems clear to me that the symbol for Virgo would have referred to - Duh! - the astrological sign of Virgo.

This Ormus could have taken his name from Hormuz, the Persian deity presiding over the New Moon day, or from Hormuzd, the name of the Persian deity identified with the Roman Jupiter.

Additionally, when I reached for my Greek-English lexicon to look up Arima, a name not unknown to me from mythology (and incorporated in the biblical name Arimathea, i.e., Joseph from Arimathea, a place which the Int'l Standard Bible Encyclopaedia cannot identify with any certainty; theá means "goddess" in Greek) I found only a listing for Arimaspoí. Although, according to Herodotus, Arimaspoí means "one-eyed," another possible meaning is "horse of light," from the Old Median orim-açpa (açpa means "horse"). It strikes me then that the name Ormus could also be an abbreviation of orim, with the Latin ending -us attached.

Salt and red ochre are produced. The town of Hormoz, originally built on the mainland, was moved (c.1300) to the island after repeated attacks by marauding raiders. The new port prospered and served as a center of trade with

. It was attacked by the Portuguese under Alfonso de Albuquerque in 1507 and was captured by them in 1514. Its recapture in 1622 by Shah Abbas I with the aid of an English fleet marked the end of the island’s prosperity; the shah abandoned Hormoz for the new mainland port of Bandar Abbas. The town’s proximity to the Persian Gulf has lent it strategic importance in the 20th cent.

Wow! I had no idea that the origin of the word ORMUS had such a history. And then again many modern words we take for granted as being new sometimes have old roots that link back to ancient times.

So the word ORMIS can be linked to persons, places and things from long ago -- and is not just a new scientific word that relates to a new discovery of a unique form of matter. Interesting…

During my research of the evolution of the graphical alphabet within my Spirit of Atlantis book project, I discovered that certain vowel and consonant symbols within many early words of the Latin Alphabet were interchangeable because spelling as we know it today was not the same back in ancient times. In fact, the most common spelling mistakes of today is the improper vowel placement within words.

So, knowing this, I did a quick review of the word ORMUS in the dictionary and discovered some interesting views. The only word I could find in my dictionary without significantly changing vowels or consonants symbols that linked to the ORMUS word was “ormolu” -- which means “ground gold”. And speaking of gold -- aurous, auric, aura, aureate, and even the chemical symbol of gold “Au” can also be linked to ORMUS because “aur” and “or” sounds the same.

Using my alphabetical model of symbol origins from my Spirit of Atlantis book project, the symbols within the word ORMUS reveal some concepts that may explain what the word means.

http://ourworld.cs.com/duanekmccullough/atlan011.htm http://ourworld.cs.com/duanekmccullough/v2c5.htm

The pictographic symbol of the letter “O” is the shape of the almighty power of the “Sun” or “Sol“. The pictographic symbol of the capital letter “R” is the sideway view of the Sun rising over the horizon with a Ray of light beaming out. The pictographic symbol of the capital letter “M” is the mountain profile meaning “mount” or “high place”. The pictographic symbol of the capital letter “U” means “two united” or “union”. And the pictographic symbol of the capital letter “S” is the symbol “spirit” or “spiral force”.

So, by applying this information to the word ORMUS, the following words can be “extracted” from the letters. Sun, Ray, Mount, Union and Spirit -- all terms that reflect a powerful entity from the heavens.

Aurigua was a powerful god-like character in ancient times that drove his chariot across the sky -- and like Zeus and even Jesus, had a glowing aureole.

And speaking of the glowing aureole phenomenon, could the ORMUS subject explain how it may be possible to activate a part of the brain -- which is mostly made of a type of phosphorus, by which it could actually glow in low light conditions? Perhaps some Biblical saints knew how to accomplish this act by using the ORMUS materials in their diet. Interesting…
