THE GREATER RITUAL Part 1: Death of Kobe Bryant in Broader Ritual Context

Astrology Entertainment Esoteric Murder by Numbers Rambo's Corner Sports

The ritual death of Kobe Bryant is just one of several related events – of varying magnitude – that are all part of one over-arching grand mystical project which I will call

Those who have followed Zachary K Hubbard’s work on this site and other platforms will know that the most salient of all the numbers associated with the Kobe Bryant ritual death is the number 41. In Gematria’s purest cypher; PYTHAGORIAN or FULL REDUCTION the name “Kobe Bryant” sums to 41.

Kobe Bryant‘s initials are K.B. He played professionally in the city of L.A. Not only do “K.B.” and “L.A.” both sum to 41 in gematria, they match across all four base ciphers. They both sum to 13. The 13th prime number is 41. Bryant’s daughter Gigi who was reported to have died in the crash was 13 years old.

In Bryant‘s last NBA game before retirement, he scored 60 points against the Utah Jazz and left the game with 4.1 seconds remaining. Like 41.

The name of the crashed helicopter pilot is Ara Zobayan which sums to 41.

He died the day of Grammy Awards headlined by Alicia Keys. “Alicia Keys” sums to 41.

Bryant won an Oscar for his short animated feature DEAR BASKETBALL, which sums to 41.

Prince

In the aftermath of the Kobe Bryant death the premature demise of another celebrity has been brought up in comparison: The musician Prince. As with Kobe Bryant, the number 41 featured prominently with Prince.

Prince died on April 21st, 2016, (4/21/16) a date with 41 numerology.

Prince performed at Super Bowl XLI (41).

911

Those familiar with Zach Hubbard’s analysis of the grand ritual of 911 will know that the number 41 featured prominently in that, the grandest of episodes of public sacrificial ceremonial magic:

September 11th, 2001 is a date with 41 numerology.

The two principle countries involved were Saudi Arabia and the USA. The event was attributed to Al Qaeda.

911 involved The Pentagon whose construction started on 9-11 in the year ’41

Bear Bryant (born 9-11)

The name of this all-time-great college football coach is hugely significant to Hubbard’s analysis since Bear Bryant has the same last name – and died on the same date as – (January 26th) Kobe Bryant.

Since 911 is central to THE GREATER RITUAL Bear Bryant’s 911 birthday makes him an essential element.

The Tropical (Sun-based) Zodiac and Ruling Planets

The tropical zodiac is the popular Western 12-house zodiac which is based on the Solar Cycle; the position of the sun throughout the year.

The tropical zodiac is key to the greater ritual. Kobe Bryant is a key element of the greater ritual; facts revealed by Gematria.

THE RULING PLANET; The most important element of the tropical zodiac.

Each zodiac sign is said to be ruled by a planet (or planetoid Sun, Moon). The zodiac signs of GEMINI and VIRGO are ruled by the planet MERCURY.

THIS IS THE HEART OF THE GREATER RITUAL. THE GREATER RITUAL IS A MERCURY RITUAL.


THIS IS THE BIG 41 THAT ALL THE OTHER 41s ARE BASED UPON

GEMINI & VIRGO

Because MERCURY rules GEMINI and VIRGO, people born in those signs of the tropical zodiac will the principle characters. Kobe Bryant, born August 23rd is a VIRGO. Kobe Bryant represents MERCURY. Just as Prince represents MERCURY being a GEMINI born June 7th.


MERCURY is also a deity; An Expression of an Ancient Archetype.

An archetype is an original entity on which multiple ensuing entities are based. The ensuing entities are all expressions of the same archetype.

Roman Mercury; the Messenger of the Gods; a god who transcends the spiritual plane to manifest in material form to impart knowledge to mankind for its spiritual, mental and physical evolution.

Before Roman MERCURY was Greek HERMES whose progenitor is the Egyptian/Kemetian TOTH/DJEHUTI. Persian ZORASTER/ZARATHUSTRA and Christian JESUS CHRIST are also expressions of the archetype. Christianity states that divine knowledge of the birth of Christ was given exclusively to MAGI from the East(Persia) who are high priests of ZOROASTRIANISM.

September 11th, The Real Birthday of Jesus Christ

In 1978 Christian Pastor and Meteorologist Ernest L. Martin – primarily using astronomy – published his scientific study on the real birthday of Jesus Christ in his book The Birth of Christ Recalculated. The date he concluded was September 11th, 3 B.C.

This would make Jesus Christ a VIRGO representing MERCURY, synchronizing with the Messenger-of-the gods archetype.

JESUS CHRIST IS MERCURY

“Jesus Christ” is a Roman term coined when they created the institutional religion of Christianity. Yeshua, Yahushua or Emmanuel would have more likely been his original name.

Ritual deaths of MERCURY – involving people who are Gemini or Virgo – are symbolic crucifixions.

MERCURY: God of Thresholds and Transition

The archetypical Hermes/Mercury/Djehuti is a god of transition periods, borders, boundaries and thresholds.

The planet MERCURY is only visible from Earth at dawn and dusk; the transition periods of night-to-day, and day-to-night.

Thoth/Djehuti is said to have determined where the soul would go after death. This decision was made in a transition area called The Duat.

In Revelation 22:16 (KJV) Jesus says:

THE DAWN OF A NEW AGE

A major historical transition period (in astrological terms) is end of one age and the beginning of another. MERCURY is a god of transition periods and thresholds, Jesus/Yahushua is Mercury, hence he manifested at the end of the Age of Aries, and the beginning of the Age of Pisces. The sign for Pisces is fish, hence the Ichthys “Jesus fish” symbol.

Now we are between the end of the Age of Pisces and the dawn of the Age of Aquarius; time for the god-of-transition to manifest.

This could mean a collective “Christ Consciousness” spiritual, mental, physical awakening if not a physical manifestation of an entity or entities.

In Luke 22:10 (KJV) Jesus alludes to the future Age of Aquarius:

The symbol for Aquarius is a man bearing a pitcher of water

A new age (or aeon) brings a shift in human consciousness and change in the world’s power-structure. The most salient characteristic of THE AGE AQUARIUS is revelation; information that was previously restricted to an elite few comes to light to the general public.

The most significant development at the dawn of the age of intellectual awakening is the internet. Thus, internet adresses have Aquarius signs WWW.

The purpose of the individual rituals that make up THE GREATER RITUAL is to alter the natural course of the new age. The deity MERCURY ushers in new ages.

MERCURY; The god of Travelers and Transportation

The deity Hermes/Mercury is also the god of travelers and transportation. The most vivid mainstream acknowledgement of this is the sculpture titled Transportation on the Southern facade of the most famous transportation hub in the world: New York City’s Grand Central Terminal.

The planet MERCURY rules GEMINI. The deity MERCURY rules TRANSPORTATION. A symbol of GEMINI is TWINS. The twins of Gemini are named CASTOR & POLLUX.

Again the Bible supports this: in the book of Acts 28:11 (NIV), narrated by Luke traveling by ship to spread the Gospel:

The sidereal rotation period of the planet Mercury is 58.6 Earth days. That is the length of time it takes for Mercury to complete one 360 degree turn on its axis.

Mercury‘s orbital cycle is 87.9 days which is why 88 is also a Mercury number.


With the ability to recognize the purpose of – and the characteristics of – Mercury Rituals, we can now analyze recent and past events – and popular culture – in broader context.

In Part 2 we will decode the Kobe Bryant death, events surrounding it such as Royal Rumble and the Super Bowl, as well as past events like 911.

THE GREATER RITUAL Part 2: KOBE BRYANT: Elements of a Mercury Ritual

Astrology Esoteric Murder by Numbers Rambo's Corner Sports

Virgo, Gemini, Jesus symbolism and Mercury planetary numbers

In Part 1 we established that the Greater Ritual that Kobe Bryant was a part of was a MERCURY RITUAL. Please read Part 1 first before reading this. Here again is the key to decoding Mercury rituals.

Here again are the dates of Gemini and Virgo who are ruled by Mercury:

Kobe Bryant

In Part 1 we discussed the number 41‘s significance to Kobe Bryant who is a VIRGO ruled by MERCURY. 41 is the Gematria value of “Mercury”.

A Gematria-cipher of equal importance to the base ciphers (Simple/Ordinal and Pythagorean/Full Reduction) is Jewish Gematria. In Jewish Gematria “Mercury” sums to 798.

The orbital period of the planet MERCURY is 87.9 days like 879; a numerical anagram of 798, the Jewish Gematria value of “MERCURY.”

Kobe Bryant’s jersey-number was changed from 8 to 24 to prep him for the Mercury Ritual.

As stated in Part 1, Jesus/Yeshua/Emmanuel could have been born on September 11th making him a VIRGO, ruled by MERCURY which synchronizes with the Messenger-of-the-gods title of the Greco-Roman deity. 33 is a number associated with Jesus/Yahushua which appears in many Mercury Rituals. Kobe Bryant meets this criteria for a Mercury Ritual:

Kobe Bryant died on the same day (Jan. 26, 2020) that the Grammys were held.

Also held on that day was the 33rd World Wrestling Entertainment’s Royal Rumble.

The other “Number of Jesus” is 74

“Joshua” is the English translation of “Yeshua” the Hebrew name for Jesus.

Mark 15:17 (KJV)

Purple is a color not just associated with Jesus, but specifically with his crucifixion. As a color of royalty he is reported to have been sarcastically hailed as “King of the Jews” before being crucified.

By sending him to the purple-wearing Lakers Kobe Bryant was already being selected for a future Mercury sacrifice ritual.

Kobe Bryant died during the 74th NBA season. He was the second high-profile NBA death in its 74th season. The former commissioner David Stern born September 22nd and – like Kobe Bryant and Jesus/Yeshua) – a VIRGO. Two appropriate people for a Mercury Ritual.

Kobe Bryant is said to have died in Calabasas, California

Kobe Bryant died on a date with 67 numerology

86 is a Gematria value (Reverse Ordinal/Simple) of “Mercury.”

Kobe Bryant’s nickname is “Black Mamba”

Kobe Bryant died on the same day that the Grammy Awards occurred. Kobe Bryant tributes were lead by host Alicia Keys whose name sums to 67 gematria.

67, The 33rd Royal Rumble; Part of the Greater Mercury-Ritual

Kobe Bryant’s death, the Grammy Awards and the WWE Royal Rumble all occurred on the same day (the middle of the season is when it is at its highest power and is hence a high-holy period. These are mid-Winter rituals).

The Royal Rumble – being part of a MERCURY RITUAL – had a Jesus/Yeshua-allusion; it was the 33rd edition, a key “Jesus number.”

Being part of the greater Mercury-ritual, the men’s 33rd Royal Rumble champion is Drew McIntyre, a GEMINI ruled by MERCURY.

McIntyre – in addition to being Gemini – is also Scottish; perfect for a Mercury-ritual.

The women’s championship was won by Charlotte Flair.

GEMATRIA UNVEILS THE ROYAL RUMBLE MERCURY RITUAL

In a different context a Mercury-ritual can be positive. A Christ-like concept:

The Tarot card that represents the planet MERCURY is (#1) THE MAGICIAN. The image on the card is dressed in red-and-white robes; similar to a common depiction of Jesus Christ.

God and Jesus Christ have the moniker “The Great I AM” because the Bible quotes God and Jesus saying that phrase 300 times .

EXAMPLES OF JESUS’ “I AMs”:

THE THREE “WISEMEN” who had exclusive divine knowledge of Jesus/Yeshua’s birth were called MAGI; Zoroastrian Persian high-priests. “Magician” is derived from “Magi.”

Kobe Bryant‘s helicopter took off from John Wayne Airport. This name is part of the Mercury Ritual as revealed by Gematria.

Zachary K Hubbard revealed that the Comedy Central animated series Legends of Chamberlain Heights – in an episode titled End of Days – featured Kobe Bryant dying in a helicopter crash.

The episode aired November 16th, 2016.

From Kobe Bryant’s August 23rd, 2016 birthday to and including November 16th, 2016 is a span of 86 days.

58 and 59 are MERCURY NUMBERS given that the sidereal rotation period of the planet Mercury is 58.6 Earth days.

If September 11th is the real birth of Jesus/Yeshua then the phrase “born of a virgin” could be more accurately “born a Virgo.”

Christians give Jesus the moniker “King of kings”

On December 13th, 2019 Kobe Bryant is said to have directed traffic after witnessing – and assisting victims of – a traffic accident in Newport Beach, California. This was part of the greater ritual as Gematria reveals.


The other VIRGO death in the 74th NBA season is former commissioner David Joel Stern.

The singer Prince who we mentioned in Part 1 is also associated with 41. Prince is a Gemini and performed at Super Bowl 41(XLI). He is also associated with the important color purple, as mentioned earlier in this article: a crucifixion color.

LeBron James is an important element of the ritual. His moniker – importantly – is KING JAMES. Playing for Bryant’s Lakers, he passed Kobe Bryant on the NBA all-time scoring chart – in Bryant‘s home town of Philadelphia – the night before Bryant‘s reported death.

King James is a GEMINI ruled by MERCURY. he died at age 58 a major “Mercury number.”

Look at where King James is said have died: at THEOBALDS House. Gematria reveals that this – like his zodiac sign and age at death – synchronizes with a Mercury theme.

In Gematria “Mercury” = 86. “Hermes” = 32.


Drew is the first name of 33rd WWE Royal Rumble champion. “I am” is a popular phrase and moniker of Jesus.


Legendary college football head coach Bear Bryant shares the same last name, death date and zodiac sign as Kobe Bryant; a VIRGO representing MERCURY. He began his career as a head coach in the year ’58.

David Stern‘s bio mentions that he stood at 59“.

The media first reported 5 dead in the helicopter crash, and then reported 9 dead. 59; a Mercury reference.

The “WEST” Element of the Ritual

Kanye West

Artist Kanye West is another element to the greater Mercury ritual. He collaborated with Kobe Bryant in a high-production but nonetheless cheesy Nike ad which featured an exploding helicopter.


Kanye West is chosen because he is a GEMINI and – like Kobe Bryant – is ruled by MERCURY.

Jerry West

The other West component – of the Kobe Bryant and greater Mercury ritual – is NBA legend Jerry West whose silhouette is used as the NBA logo.

It has been suggested that Kobe Bryant‘s silhouette might replace Jerry West‘s as the official NBA logo. Jerry West is part of the ritual as a GEMINI.

In addition to being Mercury-sign Gemini, the name “West” makes Kanye and Jerry ripe for the ritual. “WEST” sums to 67 the Gematria value of “Mercury Ritual” and other related terms. 41 is the most salient number of the greater ritual, and the Gematria value of “MERCURY.”

Trae Young

Trae Young of the Atlanta Hawks was said to have been Kobe Bryant‘s daughter Gigi‘s favorite player and a Kobe Bryant protege. A disproportional amount of media coverage was focused on his tribute.

Trae Young is of course a Mercury-sign VIRGO.

Trae Young‘s tribute “somehow” included his recording the first 45-point double-double with less than 25 field goal attempts since Bryant did it on December 17, 2006.

This concludes The Greater Ritual Part 2.
