North Pole
Also called: Polaris
The northern end of Earth's rotational axis, where auroras are observed.In this narrative, it is the womb every creation pours out of, and the axis of a flat disc Earth.
Established facts
The North Pole is the northern end of Earth's axis of rotation.Geographic north and magnetic north sit in different places.Magnetic north shifts a little each year.Auroras occur when solar wind particles strike the atmosphere along Earth's magnetic field lines.Polaris, the North Star, lies close to the direction Earth's axis points.The Big Dipper circles Polaris once a day.The swastika pattern is an ancient geometric motif that appears independently in India, Greece, and among Native American cultures, among others.
A dome covers a disc; the sun and moon circle inside it. The edge is an ice wall.
In this narrativeThe womb of all creation
In this narrative, the North Pole is the womb where all creation begins1.Aurora pours out of magnetic north and gives birth to the four elements: water, fire, air, and earth1.The aurora is called a spiritual umbilical cord linking humanity and the cosmos1.The 40,000-year-old "Emerald Tablet of Thoth" already mentions this aurora1.The green code-waterfall in the film The Matrix is read as a symbol of this same aurora1.The North Pole is the axis that turns the stars, the moon, the sun, and the sea1.
In this narrativeThe Wizard of Oz and old maps
Old maps from the 1500s and 1600s drew the North Pole as a central island1.Four rivers stretch outward from that island in every direction1.The map in The Wizard of Oz also shows four roads stretching out from Emerald City1.Both maps also draw a race of small people.The old maps' "Pygmies" and the film's "Munchkinland"1.This picture reads the two as traces of the same archetypal myth, laid on top of each other1.
In this narrativeThe eye, the disc, and the swastika
This picture draws Earth as a flat disc with the North Pole as its central axis1.It maps the structure of the human eye's iris and pupil directly onto the disc of Earth1.It lines up the cosmological models of Hebrew, Tibetan, Navajo, Maya, Chinese, Islamic, Inca, and Norse traditions side by side1.All of them are disc- or pyramid-shaped cosmologies with a central axis1.Swastika patterns from around the world, and the Windows logo, are stitched in as traces of the same central-axis symbol2.The path the Big Dipper traces as it circles Polaris also draws a swastika shape2.
In this narrativeThe Matrix and the black sun
The center of this aurora vortex is called the "black hole sun"1.It is drawn as a flat plane with the sun and moon floating on either side1.This picture treats that black center as occupying the same position as Saturn.The conclusion is that the true central axis of the disc of Earth is the North Pole.
Connected concepts
- Firmament →The dome's central axis is the North Pole.Follow the apex of the firmament and it lands at the North Pole.
- Antarctic Ice Wall →If the center of the disc is the North Pole, its rim is the Antarctic ice wall.Center and edge pair off.
- Flat Earth →A single North Pole–centered map is the core image of flat-earth cosmology.
- The Matrix and the Red Pill →The aurora's green light is laid over the Matrix's code waterfall.A natural phenomenon crosses over into a film symbol.
- Saturn →The "black hole sun" at the center of the disc takes Saturn's position.A black center becomes a shape that overlaps with Saturn.
