I am presenting the results of the RV session titled: "The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah". The session is interesting in that all participants unanimously (and independently) determined the course of a probable biblical event (synchronism). A characteristic sequence appears: people/civilization/culture → presence of a large amount of water → explosion in the atmosphere → blast of air → shock wave → dust/cloud → destruction → dry and empty terrain after the event. The sequence of events is reminiscent of other ancient catastrophes: Atlantis, Mohenjo Daro, Jericho, or, more recently, the Tunguska event. From a distance, the explosion looks both like a meteorite and an atomic bomb 😱... I draw attention to rituals of goddess worship or female fertility, which may have been practiced in the area under study and later discredited by Abrahamic religions. I suspect this is precisely why these cities may have been so hated: the "relaxed" customs of their inhabitants may have offended patriarchal ascetics. Some viewers also notice a round object or structure, perhaps made of shiny metal: it resembles a tall tower, or perhaps the Tower of Babel or a UFO starship?
Transcript (Victor Magus):
- gentle, rounded, octal, spherical, AOL: 8.0 digits
- there is some feminine energy in it, the embodiment of feminine qualities, feminine shapes, characteristics, rituals, followers,
- AOL: goddess statue, AOL: Venus,
- historical, ancient, pre-Christian, maybe Greek,
- fertility cult, ancient, pagan, primitive, primeval, even hunter-gatherer, very old culture,
- blue, wet, association with flowing water, river,
- stone structures, stone circle,
- AOL: circles of water, Atlantis,
- ceremonies, rituals, dances, songs, a lot of shamanic atmospheres,
- everything has to do with the circle, the circumference. There were circles of water, but they dried up, it became a desert, AOL: Eye of the Sahara,
- A flash of bright light in the air, and suddenly everything becomes barren, desert. A violent flash ends some civilization, the place after the event is no longer suitable for life, there is no water, which was plentiful,
- AOL: a city like Mexico Aztecs: crowded, but the culture is primitive, non-technological,
- where previously many people lived, there remains a dry, uninhabited area,
- a flash, a thunderclap, a release of enormous energy in the atmosphere. Nothing solid hit Earth, no crater,
- AOL: Mohenjo Daro, a city destroyed in India,
- bright, pulsating energy in the air during the day. It looks as if something has fallen from the top of the atmosphere downwards,
- electrical discharges, lightning, electric taste,
- Black, dense clouds roll in, obscuring the entire sky, but this is after that flash; it was in a bright, clear sky. The clouds remain for some time; such brief periods of darkness arise. Darkness, no sun reaches, no vegetation grows, no crops grow.
- top-down movement, explosion, thunder, shockwave, days of darkness, emptiness, silence. It looks as if a space object entered the atmosphere and exploded in mid-air, a meteorite,
- AOL: something like the Tunguska catastrophe,
- what remains is dry dust, sand, stones,
- I feel nostalgia, a sadness for a lost civilization. This shows the fragility of human civilization, its dependence on external forces of nature,
- a man stands on a mountainside, sees a flash, a gust of air, falls,
- dust, dirt, everything is foggy. Where the walls stood, there is nothing, AOL: biblical history (comment: see The destruction of Jericho),
Common elements between participants (synchronisms) (table best readable in horizontal screen orientation):
| Common element | Victor Magus | Aleksandra | Paweł Jończyk | Edyta | Pat Kleśta |
| Water / large masses of water / associated with violent impact | blue, wet, association with flowing water, river | The target may be related to water, a connection between the clouds and the earth, like a sheaf of water. | a roar as if masses of water were rolling somewhere | a rushing mountain river, very foamy, with a fast current | - |
| A sudden, violent event | a violent flash ends some civilization | the dynamics are quite high / everything happens quickly | one finally realizes the state of affairs | - | this storm suddenly appeared over the city |
| An event above the Earth's surface / in the atmosphere | release of enormous energy in the atmosphere / nothing solid reached the Earth | a cloud of dust that carried something with it | as if hot air was swirling | is slightly above her | drops or balls that fly horizontally to the surface, parallel |
| Something coming / moving | it looks like something fell from the top of the atmosphere down | a cloud of dust that carried something with it | something is moving | something like a UFO, a saucer hovering just above the Earth | the drone flies and hits something |
| Explosion / violent release of energy | explosion, thunder, shock wave | like a volcanic eruption | - | some chemical reaction | explosive charge, explodes |
| Blast / shock wave | he sees a flash, a gust of air, he falls over, he falls | as if swept away by some gust | something approaching seemingly calmly but steadily and with momentum | Wind | - |
| Dust / cloud | dust, dirt, everything is foggy | he saw a high speed, as if a cloud of dust was carrying something with it | - | - | a great cloud of dust and smoke, something like a sandstorm |
| Destruction of land / nature | where the walls stood, there is nothing | you can clearly feel some destruction of nature / as if swept away by some gust | - | as if there was once a forest there, now it is destroyed | - |
| After the event, emptiness / depopulation | where previously many people lived, there remains a dry, uninhabited area | - | - | Emptiness. No one around. As if deserted. | - |
| Dry / desert terrain | suddenly everything becomes barren, desert-like / only dry dust, sand, and stones remain | there are both sands and rocks | sometimes there is water, sometimes there is not | Empty space | a city in a desert area |
| Change of conditions after the event | After the event, the place is no longer suitable for living | damage and destruction | alternating hot and cold air masses | now it's ruined / I feel cold | later, when the dust settled |
| The event surprises people | a violent flash ends some civilization | everything happened suddenly | one finally realizes the state of affairs / no one predicted | - | a storm suddenly appeared over the city |
| Building / settlement before the incident | where the walls stood | there are more modest and somehow better houses there | populated area | - | a small town where there are only single-story houses |
| Object/structure related to the event | stone structures, stone circle | - | simple metal / steel / metallic elements | some kind of tower / something like a UFO, saucer | second city / very advanced technology |
| Metal motif | - | - | some simple metal / steel / metallic elements | metal, copper, tin color | metal |
| Circular movement/round form | everything has to do with the wheel, with the circle | - | this rotational movement to the left is important | a saucer / building like Tauron Arena or our National Stadium | - |
| A distant observer / external perspective | a man stands on a mountainside and sees a flash | he saw high speed, as if clouds of dust | as if on the horizon there was a step, a rampart, something piled up | I saw something like a UFO, a saucer hovering just above the Earth | a great cloud of dust and smoke [...] over the city |
