Smiled?

Now let's talk about a serious topic directly related to our most important winter holiday - New Year.

If frost, snow, tree, deer are the key words, then whose holiday is this, in the sense of the area where people live?

Obviously, the inhabitants of the southern latitudes could not come up with anything like this, everything indicates that such a tradition could appear only in the North, where it is cold in winter and snow lies.

It doesn't hurt to think about why in ancient times a fir tree was chosen as a "ritual tree" (in the common people - a tree).

The last question is the easiest to answer. The whole secret is that spruce is the only tree that does not fall asleep for the winter!

The Christmas tree is a symbol of vitality in the frosty cold. Therefore, it is customary for each New Year to decorate an evergreen tree with lights and toys and arrange festive festivities next to it.

Historians, for whom the ideal is the Western world, argue that -

Russian historians, unlike Western historians, have long seen in the reformism of the first Russian emperor Peter I an openly malicious intent directed against the Russian people. And they have several reasons for this opinion:

First, at the court of Peter I, Russian was hardly spoken. For some reason, Russian was considered the language of the common people. All communication at the court of the "Russian Tsar" was conducted mainly in German and Dutch. Why this is so, one can only guess. Obviously, the Russian people had an entirely non-Russian leadership.

Secondly, with his decree to change the calendar, Peter I took away from the Russian people as much as five and a half thousand years of history (!). Until 1700, the calendar of the Slavs was 7208 years old, but it became 5508 years less! Peter I motivated his decree by the fact that

If someone does not believe that before Peter I, the Slavs had 5 thousand years more in the calendar, here is an indisputable proof of the times of Tsar Alexei Mikhailovich (1629-1676), the second tsar from the Romanov dynasty - a book "The Code according to which the court and reprisals in all cases in the Russian State are carried out".

And this is a scan of a page from this book, where it is written in black and white: "In the summer of 7156th, July 16th".

Third, the Russians had summer- reckoning (by years), and there were no years! New Years were celebrated before September 1st.

To understand why it was necessary to redo the New Year into New Year's and to postpone the date of the onset of the new calendar cycle from summer to winter, we just have to take into account the fact that in the winter of December 25 in the Russian North it was customary to celebrate the Christmas of the young Sun - Kolyada. This was the name of the Sun appearing in the firmament after the Polar Night.

In order to cancel this winter holiday, celebrated in the Russian North, so that the folk celebrations on the occasion of the Nativity of Kolyada (the Sun) are very cleverly replaced by folk celebrations on the occasion of the Nativity of Christ, it was Peter I who started a leapfrog with a change in the calendar in Russia and with the transfer of the New Year's date from September 1 to New Year's - January 1.

What is the "joke" here, as young people say today?

The secret is that the so-called CHRISTIANITY has two cultural layers.

The first cultural layer is the myth of the God-man, whom the Mother of God gave birth to. The embodiment of this myth is the icon of the Mother of God with the baby.

One of the portraits of the Mother of God Mary, who gave birth to God the Son - Christ. (Icon "Mother of God Belynichskaya", 19th century).

According to this myth, the God-man, born of the Mother of God, came to the Jews, performed many good deeds among them, and eventually died for them, but resurrected three days later, after which he departed into heaven, taking his worthy place in the Kingdom of Heaven.

The second cultural layer of CHRISTIANITY is a story about the life of a real person, a philosopher, a scientist and a miracle worker (today they would say - a psychic) who came to the Jews to cure them of bodily and spiritual illnesses, to enlighten them with the light of truth, and all this in order to to free them from spiritual slavery, in which they found themselves due to the malicious intent of the enemies of the human race - the Jews.

According to the four Gospels found in the Bible, this man was called Jesus (Christ), he was both an enlightener and a healer of the Jews - literally a miracle worker. For this, for the other and for the third, vile and treacherous Jews, who made the Jews their spiritual slaves, all the while Christ was with them, constantly looked for an opportunity to destroy the Savior.

The matter ended with the fact that Jesus voluntarily went to death, giving himself up into the hands of the villainous murderers who call themselves "high priests." This scene is described in the Gospel of Luke with the following words: (Luke 22: 53).

The feat of this man, whom the Jews still call nothing but a "rebel" and "impostor", was recorded for history, and in order for him to become part of the information war that the biblical Jews waged against humanity from very ancient times, they imposed the story of Christ - Savior to the ancient myth of the peoples of the Russian North, which tells about the Sun, dying for three days a year and then resurrecting for the joy of all people.

This sly "trick" with the life of Jesus Christ, the "son of man", born of the Virgin Mary, is the secret of why Peter I needed to change the calendar of the Slavs and remake the New Year for New Year.

While this two-layered story of Jesus, the Savior of the Jews, spread among the southern nations, the so-called "Christianizers" felt at ease. And when the Jews came in the role of colonizers to Russia, to the northern peoples, a conflict of ideologies arose.

The fact is that the Slavs in Russia had their own Vedic faith and their own mythology, in which, as if in a magic mirror, the falsity and artificiality of the pseudo-Christian faith created by the Jews was reflected. And since Peter I was a pro-Western, he, of course, did everything to stifle everything Russian in the Russian Empire as much as possible, and sow everything Western as much as possible on Russian land.

Now I will acquaint the reader with the logic of replacing the Russian northern holiday "Christmas of Kolyada" (the Christmas of the young Sun after the Polar Night) with the Jewish holiday "Christmas of Christ".

In Slavic mythology Kolyada - A baby sun that is born in the firmament during an astronomical phenomenon - the end of the Polar Night. Inhabitants of the Arctic Circle, living beyond the Arctic Circle (beyond 66 degrees north latitude), observe the onset of the Polar Night every year. Its duration for an observer is the longer, the closer to the North Pole he is. For example, for residents of the village of Polyarnye Zori, which is located on Kola the peninsula at latitude 67, 2 degrees north latitude, in December the Sun seems to die for three days, and then it seems to be resurrected.

If the peak of the Polar Night falls on December 22, then the holiday of Kolyada was traditionally celebrated on December 25 (on winter Christmastide).

Help: ("Russian Encyclopedia"). The best carols were preserved in Old Russia, in Galicia among the Carpathian Ruthenians. The Christmas-tide rituals, marked in many respects by features of pagan antiquity, reminiscent of both the celebration of the newborn sun and the cult of ancestors, showed great resilience. (A source).

In order for the reader to understand that not only Russian Tsar Peter I, but also the Russian Orthodox Church, was interested in the destruction of the Russian tradition, I will note that on December 24, 1684, the Patriarch of All Russia Joachim, who received the title of Patriarch of Hyperborean in Byzantium, introduced the strictest ban on worship Kolyada, that is, the "young Sun". And since few people in the people paid attention to this prohibition of the Church, a subsequent reform of Peter I was needed with a change in the calendar and the replacement of New Years with Winter New Years.

So, after the decree of Peter the Great on January 1, New Year began to be celebrated.

It is reasonable to be puzzled now by the question: how is this date connected with December 25 - the day of Kolyada?

The answer is this. The Jewish clergy, within the framework of their doctrine for the conquest of the world, needed a vivid image of Jesus Christ as a ram to conquer the minds of different peoples. So they figured out how to combine the story of the "Jewish rebel" in the Gospels to enhance the "striking effect" with the myth of the Russian North about the Sun, which dies for three days and then is resurrected.

It is not at all difficult to imagine how the Jews reasoned when making such a compilation:

And since in German God - Gott, in English - God, as well in a number of other languages, then in the now widely known expression "Happy New Year!" the meaning was originally embedded - "With a New God!"

So, with the filing of Peter I, the Russian Empire began to lead from the Nativity of Christ not only chronology, but also New Years (New Years), directly related to the astronomical event - the end of the Polar Night at the latitude of the village of Polyarnye Zori, located on the Kola Peninsula, whose inhabitants observe every year " the dying of the "Sun" and its subsequent "resurrection" exactly three days later.

I personally live in Murmansk, in which the Polar Night is longer due to the fact that the city is located somewhat closer to the North Pole than the village of Polyarnye Zori, therefore the "Sun Festival" is celebrated in Murmansk not at the end of December, but at the end of January, in the last resurrection. There is no fixed date for the Murmansk "holiday of the Sun". It could be January 25 and January 30. The floating date was made solely for those reasons that the "holiday of the Sun" always falls on the day of RESURRECTION.

Do you catch the hidden meaning?

I will also surprise you.

In all countries where there is Christianity, crosses on churches are common, but in Russia they are special, many are made in such a way that they specially depict the "crucified Sun".

Do you think by chance?

Those who ordered such crosses for churches apparently hoped that the people would one day see their sight and understand who the Savior really was, and in which God one must believe.

I will also surprise you. Remember I wrote that ?!

So, in 1999, excavations were carried out on the territory of the Luzhetsky Monastery, during which archaeologists removed a layer of earth about two meters thick and discovered sensational artifacts! The previous level of the ground is clearly visible on the dark strip running along the bottom of the wall of the monastery cathedral. In the foreground there are tombstones from the 17th – 19th centuries, dug out of the ground and neatly arranged in rows.

After removing the top layer of the earth, at the northern wall of the main monastery Cathedral of the Nativity of the Virgin the foundations of a small church built in the 17th century were opened:

It turned out that at the end of the 17th century, a rapid construction took place in the Luzhetsky monastery. At the same time, the foundations of buildings erected in the 17th century were walled up tombstones from Russian cemeteries, many of which were still quite new, like this one, for example.

The inscription on the tombstone reads as follows: "In the summer of December 7177, on the 7th day, the servant of God, the monk, the schema-monk Savatey [F] edorov, son of Poznyakov, died."

In accordance with the current calendar, approved by Peter I in 1700, the schema-monk Savatey Pozdnyakov died 31 years before the transformation of the Christmas of Kolyada holiday into the Christmas of Christ, that is, in A. D. 1669.

There are so many such gravestones, set on the building stone, on the territory of the Luzhetsky Monastery that you involuntarily come to the conclusion that at a certain historical moment a command was received to completely clear the surrounding cemeteries from the tombstones that did not correspond to the trend of the times.

Why did the old tombstones from Russian cemeteries not please the church authorities, that they had to be removed from sight?

The answer to this question, apparently, is that there were no crosses on the old tombstones, but there was an image of the Sun, the worship of which was prohibited by a new decree of the Patriarch of All Russia!

On the territory of the Luzhetsky monastery in 1999, dozens of tombstones with such ornaments were found.

And these are variations of the image of the Sun on the found old Russian gravestones:

I will also surprise you. The architecture of Christian churches built in Russia in different years seems to send us a signal from the past to the future. Like, look, finally turn your attention to clear evidence about what faith was in Russia before! These are the testimonies:

Temples with golden domes are officially called temples of Christ. Their golden color represents the Sun.

The temples with blue domes are officially called the temples of the Virgin Mary. They represent not a woman at all, but a blue sky with stars. That being said, it's obvious.

In Slavic (Hyperborean) mythology, the blue sky is the Mother of God, giving birth after the end of the Polar Night - Kolyada, the young Sun.

Temples with green domes are officially called temples of the descent of the Holy Spirit.

Is there any justification for this green color of the "descent of the Holy Spirit" temple?

It turns out that there is also, solar! "Holy Spirit" - "pagan Christmastide" - the light of the Sun - "green ray". This is all one semantic series.

This is the first time you hear about the "green ray". I also did not know about this unique optical phenomenon before, now I do.

Reference: (A source).

Presumably, among the architects who built Christian churches, the idea of "the descent of the Holy Spirit from Heaven" was associated with the observation of the "green ray" emitted by the Sun rising or setting over the horizon.

Here's to you, friends, and a "fairy tale" about the Christmas tree, Santa Claus and the New Year!
