On DeMarcus’s presentation of the history of our solar system
Audio:
DeMarcus revisited a presentation he first gave the community a couple of years ago, on what the Ra Contact tells us about the other worlds that share our sun. Enough members have joined since the first telling that the material was new to most of the room.
He began with his own entry point. He grew up unconvinced by the account he was given — that Earth is singular, that we are the exception, that everything else out there is rock and accident. When he came across the Ra material and read what Ra says about the planets circling our own star, it matched an intuition he had been carrying a long time, and he went looking for everything he could find on the subject.
The presentation is essentially a family history. Four worlds in this solar system have hosted third-density life. Two hold life now. One more may yet. All of them developed inside a single sub-Logos — our sun — which made a set of choices at the outset that shaped every conscious being that has evolved within it.
The choice of the thumb
Ra offers a speculation about our sub-Logos worth sitting with. Asked why this Logos and several neighboring ones invested consciousness in the bipedal, erect ape form, Ra says they are not entirely sure, and then offers what they explicitly label opinion: the opposable thumb intensifies the veiling process. A creature with a grasping hand is drawn toward making, holding, and using physical tools rather than rediscovering the powers of its own mind (90.12).
The chain runs from grasping to writing, and from writing to spoken and recorded language in a cosmos where telepathy appears to be the norm. Tools lead to technology. Ra acknowledges the darker end of the chain as well — the form of warfare specific to our experience “may be traced” to the decision to use the life-form with the grasping thumb (90.18). Ra is careful here: the Logos did not plan our particular wars. It designed for maximum polarizing opportunity. Warfare is an interesting result, concomitant with tool-making.
So the intensity is deliberate, and the bellicosity is a byproduct of the intensity. Every world in this system inherits both, along with a shared archetypal mind of twenty-two images. Venusians, Maldekians, Martians, and ourselves have all been dreaming with the same deep vocabulary.
Venus
Ra’s home. Their third density concluded roughly 2.6 billion years ago, approximately when Earth was entering second density (89.9). A Venusian looking at us through a telescope at that point would have seen a barren, volcanic sphere.
Ra describes their third-density appearance as tall and somewhat delicate, with an integument that had a golden luster (6.4) — the form they later took when they materialized among the Egyptians. Their planet was, in Ra’s phrase, harshly bright (89.29), and the conditions were difficult.
By any reasonable measure they succeeded. Their third density dealt “far more deeply and harmoniously” with relationships between other-selves, with sexual energy transfer, and with philosophical and metaphysical research (88.14). Many generations of work on the archetypal mind produced the tarot, which they used as a training aid for developing the magical personality. A civilization that spent its intensity on love and on self-knowledge.
Which makes the next detail worth attending to. Two wanderers from early positive fifth density incarnated on Venus, male and female, intending to offer a wisdom-inflected path toward love for those who found all that harmony complacent or pitying (89.35, 89.39). They forgot, as incarnate beings do. They found each other. And they polarized negative — using, Ra says, control over others and domination unto physical death, on a planetary influence entirely unused to slaughter (89.31). They graduated fourth-density negative. When the veil lifted and they saw what they had done, Ra’s word for their state is disconcerted (89.40). They worked in fourth-density negative until the earlier patterns resurfaced, reversed polarity with great effort, retraced a large amount of positive work, and eventually joined Ra’s own social memory complex late in its cycle (89.41–43).
Two beings with good intentions built something destructive, and it took them densities to undo it. The veil does not weigh anyone’s motives.
Ra’s harvest was approximately 6.5 million, with roughly 32 million repeating third density elsewhere (89.28). Under a fifth, in the most harmonious civilization this system has produced.
Maldek
Between Mars and Jupiter there was a planet. What remains is the asteroid belt.
Ra compares Maldek’s civilization to Atlantis — much technological information gained and used without care for the preservation of their sphere. Their thoughts and actions followed the service-to-self pattern, but Ra adds a qualification that matters: this was “couched in a sincere belief/thought structure” that appeared to them to be positive and of service to others (10.1). They were helpers in their own account. Ra says a concluded harvest there would likely have been mixed.
Approximately 705,000 years ago the escalation of their warfare reached the furthest extent of their technology and the biosphere disintegrated. A more recent Q’uo transmission — outside the Ra corpus, so I hold it more loosely — frames their weaponry as an exploration of the inner workings of the planet itself and suggests something suicidal was present at the inception of the destruction. Someone, or some group, decided.
No one escaped. Ra is unambiguous: none escaped the knot or tangle (10.7). An entire planetary population died in the same instant, without transition, and locked together into what Ra calls a social complex knot of fear. Time passed, and no one could reach them.
DeMarcus follows Session 10.1, which places the Confederation’s intervention around 600,000 years ago and the transition to Earth around 500,000. Session 21.5 gives a different sequence — the knot forming around 500,000 years ago, a Confederation entity beginning to relax it around 200,000, and incarnation within Earth’s sphere around 46,000. Ra had trouble with our time measurements and said so repeatedly. The dates do not reconcile; the shape of the event does.
What the Maldekians chose afterward is the part I keep returning to. Having healed enough to examine what they had done, they collectively selected a form of karmic alleviation: incarnation in second-density physical chemical complexes lacking the dexterity to carry out third-density manipulations (10.3). Advanced consciousness placed into bodies that could not build weapons. Ra identifies these entities as dwelling in deep underground passageways, known to us as Bigfoot — one of three types Ra distinguishes (9.18, 9.22). A few remain unalleviated. Many have since moved into human bodies, carrying the old patterns underneath. Some, according to the Q’uo material, took a second run at nuclear power in the twentieth century.
Mars
Mars was stopped in mid-third density and is undergoing healing for millennia of our time (30.14). Q’uo describes a gradual ecological decline driven by aggression between populations, then a single event — weaponry that disrupted the planet’s water cycle — that finished the process within months. The soul of the planet faded, and the magnetosphere with it.
Then the rescue, and the complication that came with it.
Approximately 75,000 years ago, the Guardian our scriptures name Yahweh brought the Martian population into Earth’s sphere. Ra describes the resulting population as a combination of Red Planet mind/body/spirit complexes and “a careful series of genetical adjustments” made by the Guardians (9.7). The Yahweh group worked with those of Mars in what Ra calls the cloning process (18.20). Roughly half of Earth’s early third-density population was Martian, a quarter came up from Earth’s own second density, and a quarter arrived from elsewhere (20.20).
The intention was love. The mechanism was structural. And the outcome, Ra says of a later Yahweh experiment with the Anak, was “a decided failure from the view of the desired distortions” — because rather than assimilating the Law of One, the group was tempted to see itself as elite, different, better (18.21). The Orion group afterward impressed the name Yahweh upon people as the source of that elitism (24.6), which is how two Yahwehs end up braided together in the Hebrew scriptures, and why the God of those texts appears to change temperament partway through.
This is the material I have been circling in my own work. A Logos that has never incarnated tries to help its children by improving their bodies, because bodies are what it knows how to touch. The love is real and the naivete is real, and the mistake becomes the teacher.
Earth
Ra names three major planetary influences on this sphere beyond our own second-density derivation, plus thirteen minor groups (91.13). Sixteen origins. The variety of our cultures and the incoherence of our catalyst have a common source.
Lifespan at the opening of this master cycle was approximately 900 years (20.12). Ra explains the reason: third density delivers perhaps a hundred times the catalytic intensity of any other density, and the first 150 to 200 years amount to spiritual childhood. Two of our three minor cycles have now closed with almost no harvest. Ra’s word for the Confederation’s response was concerned (22.16).
Harvest itself is simpler than the surrounding machinery suggests. Fifty-one percent orientation toward other-selves suffices for fourth-density positive; the negative path requires approximately ninety-five percent service to self and is described as a strait and narrow gate (17.31–32). Between them lies what Ra calls the sinkhole of indifference (17.33), where most of Earth’s population will land and from which they will repeat elsewhere.
A member asked whether the unharvestable are self-serving or simply unaware. DeMarcus grounded the answer in intention, which is where Ra puts it. The majority of people will never hear the word harvest and will never read a line of this material. Living with good intention more than half the time is the whole requirement.
Ra’s image for the transition is a stairway, each step imbued with a certain quality of light, the entity walking until the light can no longer be borne (82.29). Wherever the walking stops is the answer.
The heat
Ra places the transition somewhere between 100 and 700 years (40.8), an estimate immediately qualified by citing the volatility of our peoples. Earth’s fourth-density sphere exists far more fully in time/space than in space/time at present, and the physical world is catching up.
The catching up costs something. Ra says the thought-forms of our peoples disturb the orderly energy constructs within the planet, increasing entropy and unusable heat, which will cause “some ruptures in its outer garment” as the sphere magnetizes itself for fourth density (17.1). Ra calls this the planetary adjustment. Millennia of collective bellicosity have to go somewhere, and the Earth is releasing it through her weather and her crust.
Meanwhile, entities harvested from other third-density worlds are incarnating here with doubly activated bodies — third and fourth density at once — able to register the incoming fourth-density energies without the third-density electrical fields failing (63.13). Ra placed their number at not yet 35,000 in the early eighties (63.12). It is a privilege, Ra says, granted to those who demonstrated a great deal of orientation toward service, precisely because a troubled third-density environment offers so much catalyst for love.
A member offered an image during the discussion that clarified the whole evening. An old electric stove element glows because the metal resists the current; copper would carry the same current without heating. As love and light increase, whatever in us remains unconductive warms up — the dross separating from the gold. DeMarcus’s response was immediate: that is what is happening at the planetary level.
Which suggests the Earth and the human being are undergoing one process rather than two.
Uranus and Saturn
Ra says the planetary entity known as Uranus is slowly moving through the first density and has the potential of moving through all of them (30.14). Saturn, which has never hosted third-density life, has a great affinity for infinite intelligence and is dwelled upon in its time/space magnetic fields by those who protect this system. The Council sits in the octave of Saturn, in what we perceive as the rings (6.8) — nine in constant session, backed by twenty-four who watch, called the Guardians (7.9).
Venus was first and is nearly finished. Maldek is gravel. Mars is healing. We are in the middle of it. And past all of that, a frozen sphere has barely begun something that will take billions of years to complete.
The solar Logos is still working.
I am the Infinite Creator manifested into flesh. I am Infinity experiencing itself. — DeMarcus’s closing prayer
