Statues & Monuments of Francis Bacon

[A Phoenix]

THE FRANCIS BACON MONUMENT AT TRINITY COLLEGE CHAPEL AT CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY.

[Allisnum2er]

Hi, A Phoenix ! Thank you again ! I had never taken the time to take a look at the Francis Bacon Monument.

Here are some ideas ...

FRANCISCUS BACON , APOLLO / SOL, R.C.

PEN - AA

[A Phoenix]

HI YANN, JUST LOVING YOUR IDEAS!

[Allisnum2er]

I just noticed that right in the middle and perpendicularly to ARCANA (SECRET)

there is a reference to ARCAS / BOÖTES

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boötes

(In connection with Page 53 of HISTORIES - First part of King Henry the Fourth Act 2 scene 1)

 

[Allisnum2er]

From the "R" of VER (TRUTH) to the "T" of NAT. (From NATUS - BORN) :

TUDOR

[Allisnum2er]

Here is a last one ...

CASTOR and POLLUX

(And never mind that it is only a figment of my imagination ! 🙂)

[Allisnum2er]

As I was looking for MINERVA, I realized that the letters of MINERVA were in the word SCIENTIARVM.

And you know what ?

I realized that SCIENTIARVM was an anagram of MINERVA SCIT which, in Latin, means ... MINERVA KNOWS ! 😁

[A Phoenix]

Hi Yann, a impressive innovative cryptographic and linguistic combination. 👍🙂

[Allisnum2er]

The last but not the least ... 

I noticed that the word CATUS started from each "C" of "FRANCISCUS BACON"

Does CATUS mean something in Latin ?

INDEED !

CATUS is the Latin word for WISE.

If it is due to chance, the chance does things well !🙂

Yann, All IS NUM2ER, you are the eyes for us that see past the veil. My wish is that this is the beginning of a long happy life for you seeing what was intentionally left for us that most can walk all over many times and miss. 😉

STATUES OF LORD BACON AND SHAKESPEARE NEXT TO EACH OTHER (PERHAPS THEY ARE TRYING TO TELLL US SOMETHING) ON THE FACADE OF THE CITY OF LONDON SCHOOL (NOW OWNED BY J. P.  MORGAN) ON 60 VICTORIA EMBANKMENT AT BLACKFRIARS.

Here’s a link to the info on the statues on this building.

(Out of the entire area of London,  just realised, while looking on Google Maps, this happens to be one street away from where my daughter works. I’ll get her to look up!)

It’s fascinating that they put Shakespeare and Bacon side by side.

I'd LOVE to get a good HD Drone shot from up there!! 🙂

 

[Kate]

You’ve all got me seeing acrostics and anagrams everywhere now! 🤦🏻‍♀️

TWABCON

W(illiam)T(udor) BACON 😁

Surely just a coincidence! 
It caught my eye as the fish tail is under the con and conveyed is such a strange word here. Why not gifted?

I agree with you Kate: conveyed is a curious choice of words if not used for the purposes of a BACON anagram. Well spotted.

[A Phoenix]

Hi Kate, just took a quick provisional look. There are a total of 53 words on the whole of the monument and 203 letters on the front block of the monument. 203 is Franics Bacon (100)/Shakespeare (103) in simple cipher. The number 53 represents the letters SOW in simple cipher the intials of Sons of Wisdom or FB's Rosicrucian Sons of Wisdom. The total of words added to the total of letters: 53+203=256 a triple simple cipher for Francis Bacon (100)/ Francis Bacon (100)/ Fr. Bacon (56).

Furthermore, similar to how a woodblock is included in a cipher count on title pages: the 5 words and 29 letters in 'There is no darkness but ignorance': provides a total of 34 minus the figure of Shakespeare on the monument (34-1=33) reveals the in the invisible figure of Bacon and conversely the total of 256 plus the figure of Shakespeare (a disguised or invisible Bacon) 256+1=257 Francis Bacon (100)Fra Rosicrosse (157)-Francis Bacon, Brother of the Rosy Cross. Thus all in all it CONveys the secret cryptographic message that Francis Bacon, Brother of the Rosy Cross is Shakespeare!

I am sure Rob and Yann will also have something to say and add when they give it a look later.

[Kate]

Wow! Quite a discovery! Thanks AP

BACON TUDOR IS SS (Shakespeare)

The inscription from the Clowne jesting with Malvolio, "THERE IS NO DARKNESS BUT IGNORANCE" is on page 271 in Act 4, Scene 2 of Twelfth Night:

https://internetshakespeare.uvic.ca/Library/facsimile/book/SLNSW_F1/289/index.html%3Fzoom=850.html

Mal. I am not mad sir Topas, I say to you this house is
darke.
Clo. Madman thou errest: I say there is no darknesse
but ignorance, in which thou art more puzel'd then the
AEgyptians in their fogge.
Mal. I say this house is as darke as Ignorance, thogh
Ignorance were as darke as hell; and I say there was ne-
uer man thus abus'd, I am no more madde then you are,
make the triall of it in any constant question.

Synchronicity the same page has fun with the word "Foole" which was on my mind last night as I went to bed.

I will be back on with more later...

[Light-of-Truth]

Couple quick thoughts;

July 2nd is Day 183, the exact middle day of the year.

ONE EIGHTY THREE is 157 Simple cipher and 365 Kaye cipher. There are 182 days before and 182 days after.

ONE EIGHTY TWO is 157 Simple cipher and 287 Kaye cipher.

July 2 is like the Janus looking past and forward.

Two Dolphins...

More later...

[Kate]

Hi

I agree the 74 definitely seems to be being highlighted and we do see two dolphins. That said there are four dolphins in total, one in each corner (I took a quick look on Google Earth earlier, just to see if there were any further inscriptions on the side or back).

Can I just raise something that’s been troubling me a little: I am completely on board with first line acrostics or obvious anagrams, perhaps when words mid sentence are highlighted in different scripts, or fingers point to something etc., etc, and I am amazed by some of the things that have been pointed out which seem beyond any possibility of coincidence.

However, looking for F Bacon or similar everywhere mid-sentence within a body of words is where I sort of become a little sceptical.  
 

If I was a believer that De Vere was Shakespeare then one can easily find his name within the letters here on the statue, and in many other things  - as I’m sure we could find almost anything given enough vowels. Surely, Bacon or Will Tudor, wouldn’t be everywhere, just once cleverly, but fairly prominently placed (in cipher) would be enough on each monument or in each book/play for those with the eyes to see? 
 

Re the works of Shakespeare, why would Bacon have gone to the trouble of repeatedly including his name or measuring out letters that equate to his name. It seems a bit narcissistic, surely once or twice in each play is enough?

I would have thought he’d/they’d be encoding info that it wasn’t safe to openly publish or dropping in other clues, like he did with Petrucchio and Antonio etc.
 

I’d also expect that those who came after him and knew the secret, such as whoever ordered this statue and dedication and whoever placed Shakespeare next to Bacon on the London City Building would delight in leaving secret symbolism like this, but I’m just not so sure it’d be everywhere or repeatedly be his name. I’d expect more Masonic ciphers, like the TT or double AAs in the headpiece, etc and more allusions to the soul’s immortality and Mercury and things like that.  July 2nd is Aphelion in some years and also, I’d have to check but I think Sirius conjuncts the Sun on this date.

I just needed to say this so you know where I’m at with it. I’ll continue to watch what you unearth with amazement - I don’t want to be a Debbie Downer or take away from your passion, I just know I’d be a bit sceptical if the Oxfordians were finding the name de Vere in almost everything too and it maybe good to broaden searches to other info they’d be wanting to leave for posterity.

[Light-of-Truth]

Kate, being skeptical is definitely OK. I know personally I can see sometimes what I want to see. I accept that.

Example:

Above where I highlighted

By this hand I am
    and convey

That is something that may be me seeing what is a coincidence. What triggered me was it being exactly across from the line used on the monument. Was this line chosen for the inscription because there is a loose "I am Bacon" directly opposite on the same page. Page 271, a number Allisnum2er has mentioned I if I remember correctly. (I searched the Forum using the search feature, but text in images is not indexed by the software or Google unfortunately).

Plus I am already in the school of thought that Malvolio (Ill Will) is Bacon having a little fun with himself. So things start to interweave in my mind.

As for his name coming up often and how tedious it would have been, certainly we see instances when it was accident, but I do believe it would be have been great fun to place them all over the works. I'd say the Truth is somewhere in between. All coincidences? No. All intentional ciphers? No. But somewhere in between, wherever that might be.

On a metaphysical concept, there are times when synchronicity just sizzles. In fact lately anytime I am thinking or working on Bacon it's almost as if everything around me is offering clues and you can see the amazing coincidences happening right here in front of us. From thread to thread, day to day, some words and numbers crisscross and appear when seemingly not related except the grand idea that Bacon was Shakespeare. Last night going to bed thinking about the word "Foole", this morning looking up the line on the monument and "Foole" is all over the same page. I saw the dolphins this morning and remembered from a day or so ago DOLPHIN is 74 Simple cipher from another thread.

It is my personal belief from my own bizarre experiences and the way I live my life, that the Universe is alive and full of magic, and numbers are much more than we can fathom. I feel like Bacon and Dee left us lessons to learn about the Universe, Time, Space, so on. That said, there may be incredible magic that takes some random accident of letters and numbers and makes them real and very important in our work. A Grand Architect at work now, past and future. If you get into that kind of thinking, then the question of "What is real?" has vague answers. 🙂

"What is Truth?"

 

[Light-of-Truth]

I have a little while before I go pick up my wife at work. Let me share how my brain works when doing this.

Level 1: In my head I call it "Surface collecting." That comes from when I used to look for arrowheads in Colorado which is very much like looking for ciphers in the Works.

I start looking, see what catches my eyes. The rest of the day and the rest of the world still clutters my thinking, I am wide awake, just looking around. A. Phoenix posts a title, I look and see what I see. Then I make notes and begin focusing and thinking, thinking, thinking. A lot of ciphers are found this way, I've picked up several nice arrowheads.

Level 2: To me it is "Intuitive collecting." It usually takes me a couple hours to really clear my mind of clutter, I become hyper-focused, I see what I missed, and can start to seek with an idea something will be exactly where I look, intuition kicks in. Imagination is wild, one idea offers fruit and it triggers another idea, all connecting.

It is an altered state of mind. I remember reading something Albert Pike wrote about "winding a spring", then doing work to release it. Sometimes the work is writing after researching. But that is when real magic happens, that is when I feel led by Bacon or Dee, thoughts come to me from outside my head. It is a state of mind that is quite special. One may argue that it is my subconscious taking over and maybe that is true. The "experience" is tapping into a vast store of Knowledge past and future where Bacon and Dee still live and enjoy being present. Either way, it is a pleasurable experience and all my best discoveries are from that state of mind. All my best arrowhead finds were in that state as well. Somethings tells me to walk over and look under that leaf glistening in the sun, or take a moment to breath and take in the natural beauty and send a visual back to a Shaman many centuries ago standing on the exact spot I am standing, etc.

🙂

Hi Kate ! Nice work !  And welcome in the club of those seeing anagrams and acrostics everywhere ! 😄

I do not believe in coincidence, and your comment about "F.Bacon" within a body of words echoes something that I found yesterday, through my research on the number 211 for the Topic 'I am Alpha and Omega" and involving a "Kate".

This is , I believe, one of these synchronicities Rob talks about. A kind of Magic  !

I take it like the answer that Francis Bacon left for you through time and space ! 😉

As always, here are some ideas  ...

FREE = BACON = 33 ( Thirty -Three)

And as if by chance, on a line parallel to WT-BACON we have MERCURY ! 😀

 I also like the idea that the word "BOARD" conceals the words "BOAR" and "BARD"
