The Cremation of Care ritual at Bohemian Grove

 The Cremation of Care 

The Cremation of Care ritual at Bohemian Grove is not held on June 24. While the term "Midsummer" is used, the club's main event typically takes place during the last two weeks of July. 

Sun (7 to 13 July): 15° to 21° Cancer

CRE + Mat = first degree of Mat = Orion's Bellatrix. But in this case, ''Cremation'' = burning.  Mat = the owl symbol in Egyptian hieroglyphs.

Care = the energy of Re = Cancer/Apis Bull/Ptah.

The Schedule: The entire encampment lasts for roughly two weeks, with the Cremation of Care traditionally held as the opening night ceremony.

Opening Night: In many years, this has fallen on the first Saturday of the July retreat. For example, records from various years show the ritual occurring on dates like July 7, July 12, or July 13.

The 40-foot (12.192 meters)  concrete owl shrine serves as the backdrop for this ritual. For the club, the owl represents wisdom and the ability to see through the darkness. During the ceremony, the robed members burn the effigy of "Dull Care" at the base of this shrine to symbolically shed their professional burdens before the retreat begins 

The club maintains it is simply a symbol of the Goddess Atena’s owl of wisdom. 

Note:  Atena is the correct spelling of the name.


The Cremation of Care ritual for 2025 was held on Saturday, July 12

 The ritual traditionally takes place on the first Saturday night of the main summer encampment, which in 2025 was scheduled from Monday, July 7, to Friday, August 1

 Location: The priv ate 2,700-acre redwood forest in Monte Rio, California.

The plays are often based on themes of mythology, history, or folklore. In keeping with the club's 150-year history, all roles in these 2025 productions—including female characters—were performed by male members

Secret symbolism in iconography

Image
   https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/71/Basilica_di_Santa_Maria_Maggiore_abside_a_Roma.jpg   The icon can be found in Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore, Rome, Italy.      Matria Atena Atiati Freya sits on her throne, with her crown on the head. Ianaten sits to her left (the right register for viewers).  It is the place of Deata (Deity) in Egypt. Also note they are a couple sitting on the throne. She is the Ruler.  He has no crown. And never will, for he is a dark one, a dead one - the mistake that needs to be corrected.  At least Vikings knew Odin has an end. What did you think ''risen from the dead'' means?  He tries to take her crown = coup d'état .   Above Matria Atena's head, there are 22 white stars on a  green background. Under the throne, there are 17 white stars on a green background.  Bellatrix plus 17 degrees.  Above, there are 16 golden stars on a blue background. This appears at Gobekli Tepe,...

Fortress Antonia jokes

  🔨 **BANG HEAD REALLY HARD HERE** → Harder = Holier™ → Concussion = Divine WiFi   Inscriptions hidden between several miniature pyramids, some made of rocks, some made of skulls and limbs, in a secret underground vault with number 666 scribbled in blood:   😈 SATAN was here (ANTONY).  (written by another hand: ''EIN TINY'' - in such a nervous, shaky hand, that it would make even a seismograph recording an active 9 Richter scale blush).   Lucifer was here   Patre was here. Iaham was here.   (full identities disclosed, including digital IDs + photos from 2,400 years ago —Lucifer’s still using the same Photoshop filter. Another ID read: DUM DUM TAM TAM TIM TIM TOM TOM Atam Atum Atom Adam and it had a snake photo).  Some very shaky inscriptions, indicating that the ones who wrote them were having fun, were illiterate (almost), and/or possibly drunk and/or high  What's for supper? Lamb roasts.  We make the best roasts....

The Abrahamic cults reflect systemic abuse

There is a core psychological architecture that most people miss because they are conditioned to see certain stories as "sacred" rather than systemic . When we look closely at the "Abrahamic pattern," a lethal feedback loop is exposed: the myth justifies the behavior, and the behavior reinforces the myth. Religion is Projected in Real Life—Totally The Divine License: When the "perfect" man is defined as someone who would kill his child for an abstract cause, it gives every abusive parent a subconscious "divine license." It frames the child as property rather than a person. The Mask of Virtue: Abusers "pretend to be good." This is the ultimate gaslighting. In the Abraham story, the willingness to kill is called "righteousness." In real life, abusive parents hide behind the defense of, "I'm doing this for your own good," or "I brought you into this world."   The "Sacrifice" Economy...
