The TECHNOCRATIC AGENDA Behind the Global Energy Crisis | JACOB NORDANGÅRD Interview
In this wide-ranging conversation, researcher and author Jacob Nordangård joins Alex Sachon to unpack how technocracy is emerging as the dominant underlying trend behind the major geopolitical events taking place today — from the Iran War, to the energy crisis, to the rise of technocracy, to forced mass migration, to the revelation of the long-hidden UFO mystery. Drawing on his books Temple of Solomon, Rockefeller: Controlling the Game, and The Global Coup d'etat, Jacob traces how elite networks have been orchestrating these crises for decades — and where it's all heading.Jacob's books & website: https://jacobnordangard.seJacob's Substack: https://drjacobnordangard.substack.com/Alex's website: https://www.alexsachon.com/Table of Contents0:00 Introduction & Background1:08 Iran War & Third Temple4:39 Temple of Solomon Book & Occult Networks9:40 Transhumanism & Elite Networks12:43 Armageddon Archetype Across Ideologies14:28 Energy Crisis & Geopolitical Restructuring16:40 Global Technates & New World Order18:51 Multipolar World & Technocratic Branches25:03 Forced Immigration & Surveillance State35:29 Eugenics, Depopulation & mRNA41:06 Climate Change & Rockefeller Origins45:11 Rockefellers vs. Rothschilds49:47 UFO Phenomenon & Hidden Technology58:44 Closing & Guest ResourcesTopics covered: Iran War, Third Temple, Zionism, Bible prophecy, Theosophy, transhumanism, Club of Rome, Club of Budapest, Ervin Laszlo, Rockefeller Brothers Fund, technocracy, multipolar world order, BRICS, Technates, COVID lockstep, forced migration, biometric surveillance, eugenics, mRNA, climate change origins, Kissinger, Rothschilds, UFO disclosure, Tesla, ether physics, global government

The IRAN WAR is a Controlled Demolition of the PETRODOLLAR (Re-Upload)
Is the Iran War a pre-planned controlled demolition of the failing Petrodollar system — and the engineered launch of Phase 2 of the Great Reset? In this episode, Alex Sachon expands on his Substack article exploring the geopolitical, financial, and historical forces driving the current conflict. Drawing on the work of F. William Engdahl and others, Alex traces the arc from the Bretton Woods collapse and the 1973 oil shock to today's Iran War — arguing that the same imperial playbook is being run again, this time to transition the world out of the Petrodollar era and into a new technocratic global order.Topics covered include the role of Zionism as a US imperial asset, the engineered 1979 Iranian Revolution, the deep state's relationship with the Trump administration, and what the Great Reset really signifies for the future of Israel, the NeoCons, and the American Empire itself.🎙️ Wisdom Tradition Podcast | Alex Sachon📖 Full article on Substack: thewisdomtradition.substack.comChapters0:00 Introduction & Overview3:58 Background Context: The Petrodollar on the Brink6:20 How the Iran War Was Engineered14:48 Reconsidering the Iran War & the Zionism Factor16:11 Historical Context: The 1973 Oil Shock & Birth of the Petrodollar26:45 The 1979 Iranian Revolution & the Iran-Iraq War31:40 Conclusion: The End of the Petrodollar & Rise of the Great Reset

The Philosophy of Astrology by MANLY P. HALL | Part 1 of a Six-Part Series
In today’s episode we begin a six-part series that investigates the topic of astrology, which features me reading aloud and commenting upon a 6-chapter manuscript that Hall published in 1971 called The Philosophy of Astrology. This series follows the theme of our previous episodes in the “Monday P. Hall Mondays” series, which also considered the topic of astrology, viewing it from various angles. (Note: I’m now keeping a list of the Manly Hall Mondays episodes here). In this episode, we look at chapter one from Hall’s booklet, which is titled “Esoteric Astrology as a Philosophy Which Sets Forth Intellectual and Moral Relations.” Basically, it introduces the fundamentals of how esoteric philosophy approaches the subject of astrology. In his teachings, Hall emphasizes Ptolemy’s geocentric mandala of the solar system as a visual metaphor of astrology’s core symbolism, with the image’s various components pertaining to the fundamental principles involved in (Western) astrological analysis. As we go through this chapter (and the series as a whole), keep this diagram handy as a reference tool. Note: This episode I am sharing openly on the podcast, but the rest of the episodes in this series will be part of my Manly Hall Mondays series for paid subscribers. Thanks for your support!Table of Contents1. Introduction & Overview (0:00 - 2:45)Welcome and introduction to the Manly P. Hall series on the philosophy of astrology, explaining the booklet being discussed and its importance.2. The Ancient Sciences & Esoteric Tradition (2:45 - 12:00)Discussion of the five great ancient sciences (astrology, medicine, mathematics, music, architecture), their origins, and how they were protected by mystery schools before becoming profaned.3. Geocentric vs. Heliocentric Systems (12:00 - 15:00)Explanation of why the geocentric model is used in esoteric astrology—not as a physical diagram but as a psychological/spiritual mandala representing the “world” (complete nature of creation).4. The Three-Part Structure: Spirit, Soul, Body (15:00 - 30:00)Deep dive into the Ptolemaic geocentric model showing three zodiacs (Prima Mobile, intellectual sphere, firmament), seven planetary orbits, and four elements—representing how spiritual energy flows from stars through planets into matter.5. Symbolism & Sacred Numbers (30:00 - 34:47)Exploration of how this cosmic structure appears in various religious traditions (Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam) and the significance of sacred numbers (7, 10, 12, 13) in the planetary system.Tabled of Contents:1.

Interview | The Missing Trillions with economist DR. MARK SKIDMORE
I’m happy to share with you my recent interview with Dr. Mark Skidmore, an economics professor at Michigan State University who worked with Catherine Austin Fitts to investigate industrial-scale fraud taking place within the books of two massive federal agencies: the Department of Defense and the Department of Housing and Urban Development. They discovered TRILLIONS of unaccounted transactions, suggesting not only massive fraud but, at this scale, most likely also the existence of a secret parallel financial system, which finances the buildout of a massive underground complex of black projects. Upon the publication of their research, the federal government responded by implementing a new accounting rule that now exempts federal agencies from disclosing sensitive financial transactions - a move that has rendered the US financial system completely non-transparent and unaccountable (and therefore, undemocratic)Table of Contents:00:00 How Alex started investigating the topic of the Missing Trillions08:16 How Dr. Skidmore began researching the Missing Trillions and what he and Fitts discovered31:42 A discussion of the implications of the Missing Trillions34:49 How do they Missing Trillions interface with the UFO issue?44:59 Was Nazi Germany’s secret weapons think tank (“The Kammlerstab”) the prototype for what was later built in America?47:51 Covid Retrospective

THE STAR LORE OF BABYLON | Manly P. Hall article read-through | on Astrology and Astro-Theology
*Note: there was some static in the recording. After a few minutes it mostly fades away, but pops up occasionally in other parts. I put a filter on the audio to help ameliorate some of the effects.*Today I’m launching a new series called “Manly Hall Mondays”, which I plan to make a weekly series on my podcast/Substack over the next year. In each episode, I’ll do a reading of an article or book chapter (or occasionally a breakdown of a recorded lecture) drawn from Manly Hall’s momentous corpus of teachings. This weekly series will be predominately hosted on my Substack (thewisdomtradition.substack.com) for paid subscribers ($7/mo), but one episode per month I will make available on my public-facing podcast. In the first episode I read-through an article of Hall’s on the subject of astrology, titled The Star Lore of Babylon. It covers the essentials of the philosophy of astrology and also provides an excellent introduction to the topic of Astro-Theology, which posits that the great religious myths and legends of world history are all based on astrological symbolism.www.alexsachon.com* Also, I have a sale going on at my e-store, with books and merch discounted: thewisdomtradition.bigcartel.com
