Where and When This Tauroctony Was Discovered

It’s in Cumont book, b/w, not color. So, not new.

Is the colorization Photoshop, or orig. paint?

map section about Mithraism.

todo: copy analysis from https://egodeaththeory.org/2025/05/07/idea-development-page-29/#Reversible-Tauroctony-blood-snake-3x-right-foot-touches-right-trunk

Same row as eternalism zodiac is {threatened by arrow/blade}.

Above zodiac row is seeing eternalism snake worldline non-branching, and being made to see 2-level, dependent control.

Above zodiac row, top row, is steering with divine authorization, not monolithic, autonomous control. transcend eternalism. steer with reins in L hand; steer using washed-clean possibilism-thinking. Two horses = two mental models.

top row: Left rock horses look at tree’s branching, Right rock horses (Luna) look at a tree’s non-branching trunk.

top row L: Mithras stand on right foot in the chariot that’s steered by Sol in relation with Mithras.

A pact, an agreement, handshake, a concord between a higher ruler emperor and a king local ruler, in the hierarchy of honor / hierarchy of control per 1997 Egodeath theory spec:

https://egodeaththeory.org/2020/11/30/self-control-cybernetics-dissociative-cognition-mystic-ego-death/#budaac —

“The underlying block universe is at a higher level in the hierarchy of control than the practically free actions that take place within the stream of personal actions within the block universe. The universe forcefully controls the stream of personal control-actions, then the stream of control actions exerts its secondary power. One can postulate a god — a creator and controller — at an even higher level in the control hierarchy“

{billowing cape} = the eternalism state of consciousness

{billowing cape} instances: row 1 L; row 2 M; row 4 L

number of trees (Y trees): 3 + 4 + 1 = 8 trees.

cape = billowing = wind = pneuma = heimarmene fixed stars state of consciousness; the eternalism state of consciousness.

Tauroctony Decoding April 25, 2025

seeing {snake frozen in rock} threatens to death egoic control agent, monolithic, autonomous control. replaced by mental model that is 2-level, dependent control.

Features: Apr. 25, 2025:

• snake in tree near bull mouth
• {king steering in a tree} upper left then
• bull dragged when see snake at right trunk of tree,
• bull replaced by Sol, crowned.

Grape bunch on lib cap mushroom stem aimed at drinking horn filled with strong dose of lib cap the God brings the follower to ingest, after which god gives initiate crown to steer wind-blown cape chariot in altered state.

naive possibilism-thinking bull sacrificed thus, upon seeing snake rather than branching tree,

bull identity replaced by Sol, transcendent possibilism-thinking.

Pre/Trans fallacy: pre = bull; trans = Sol.

bull != Sol though both are a form of possibilism-thinking.

bull = naive possibilism-thinking.
Sol = transcendent possibilism-thinking.

Completed initiate has together:
transcendent eternalism-thinking +
transcendent possibilism-thinking.

Entire Front

Features:

• wind blowing beard on R in top row, on L in bottom row. bottom row: beard is near Mithra’s R foot.
• which leg bent on L, on R. Consistent. stand on right foot vs. stand on left foot; ie, the leg which is not bent. Forget “crossed” legs; which leg is bent and thus not bent?
• L side: 3 bent L legs = 3 stand on right foot. Most tauroctony scenes have bent L leg, on L twin.
• R side: 2 bent R legs = 2 stand on right foot.
• random art choice re: L torch light up or down: if you choose to show torch down on L, that points to {stand on right foot}, above that snake.
• wheat tail against heimarmene fixed stars: affirming heimarmene gives fecundity reward. Sol is higher personal control system after blade the vulnerable bull which is lower personal control system, especially egoic naive possibilism-thinking “monolithic, autonomous control” is repudiated, specifically.

Banquet Scene on Reverse Side, Angle

Banquet Scene on Reverse Side

Features:

• Lib Cap has sword blade revealing Psilocybin transformation about steering; crown = steering ability authorized by the standard of Psilocybin. Mithras showing palm = threatened & mercy pleading, apprehension. Apprehending the blade – Psilocybe semi-lanceata; spear-blade-mushroom.
• Steering rod is non-branching.
• Blade goes into bull near shoulder.
• Seeing how steering works in non-branching revealed world (an experience).
• Bull’s right legs are bent, implying bad/unstable {stand on left foot}: belief in stand on left foot is dead, when on Psilocybin. To still use possibilism-thinking (branching possibilities steering), must transcend eternalism-thinking.
• Drinking horn contains lib cap Psilocybin which is a blade that kills initial monolithic, autonomous control steering in a branching possibilities tree. Cuts off the branching & cuts off the egoic autonomous personal control system of the type that steers in a tree to create the open future to “close” the future by your egoic autonomous control power.
• grape = Psilocybin lib cap
• mercy hand: thumb = non-branching; fingers = branching. IY. “display hand” = the capability of finger shapes to represent branching vs non-branching.
• hunting dogs: Acteon sees Artemis, turns into stag w/ branching antlers, torn to pieces by his own hunting dogs.
• Cubensis mushroom above bull head. Angle illusion; it’s a right hand above bull ear.
• wheat tail: bovine dung grows Cubensis.

Top Rows

Sol Crowned by Mithras and Made to Understand Mithras Controls Your Control-Thoughts, in Harmonious, Benevolent, No-Harm Relationship

Features:

• naked L foot-relying Sol on R: no control power; crown not on head; powerless; Mithras controls Sol’s power; Mithras holds controls your bull muscle, your source of power.
• left Mithras stand on right foot; left foot floats. Heimarmene cap billowing touches branching part of tree.

Mysteria: The Ancient Mysteries and the Evolution of Consciousness

30 Oct. 2012 (no such)

“David Ulansey’s Origins of the Mithraic Mysteries won wide acclaim for its splendid scholarship and what Gnosis magazine called “an absolutely spell-binding detective story of antique lore.”

“Ulansey returns here with another detective story, this time unearthing the once-flourishing religious movements snuffed out by the arrival of Christianity.

Based on a series of lectures presented at San Francisco’s prestigious Jung Institute, Mysteria employs a wealth of scholarly and investigative tools in this exploration of

the role ancient mystery religions played in the evolution of Western consciousness.

The book reveals how these secret

cults, which centered on rituals and symbols of transformation at the deepest levels, catalyzed the formation of the individual, personal identity that became the core of the Western psyche.

Mysteria also examines the impact of the extraordinary

cultural and intellectual transformations of the Hellenistic Age on consciousness and self-awareness.

Individual chapters describe a rich

spiritual landscape in antiquity that included

• the Eleusinian Mysteries,
• the Orphic and Pythagorean Movements,
• Plato and the Mysteries,
• the Hellenistic Revolution,
• Mithraic Mysteries, and
• Apocalypse and Gnosis.”
