I don't claim to know fully the intricacies of the Eleusinian mysteries, but I know they drank the Kykeon and then went into a super dark room called the Telesterion.

Initiates were given a drink derived from a non-poisonous form of ergot called claviceps paspali that was grown on barley(basically LSD). They would harvest it and cook it into a brew called the Kykeon.

A scientific study from 1998 was performed in a dark room with people tripping on LSD and some rotating magnets. All 3 tripping participants reported seeing diffuse blobs of colored light when the horseshoe magnets were rotating at 0.5 Hz. The scientists from this study believed there is an association between the results of their study and possible ergot-induced perceptions of "magnet light" reported ~175 years ago by von Reichenbach.

When electrons move, according to the same science that brought us the technology of electromagnets, they generate a magnetic field.

Your body is made out of atoms with electrons orbiting them, therefore your body has a magnetic energy signature associated with the movement of the electrons orbiting the atoms of your body and the matter that flows through you (breath/food/water/waste).

Someone who is tripping on LSD may be able to see your "magnetic energy signature". You don't even have to be presently tripping on LSD to see auras though. There can be residual effects from usage long ago.

Now, imagine just how refined a 90+ year old Native American Medicine Man's magnetosensitivity would be after having engaged in the various psychedelic practices of that tradition. This is how a Medicine Man is able to diagnose a person with a glance. They are visually assessing the aura.

This, by the way, explains the trope of the hippie talking about people's auras. Hippies tend to be psychonauts and love psychedelics so if LSD enables magnetoreceptive vision, it would make sense for hippies to be well represented amongst the magnetoreceptive ranks of humanity.

My next post will be on Demeter's relevance to the Eleusinian mysteries and how the symbolism of her chariot ties in.

Remember how much the Disney Hercules movie was focused upon Hercules becoming a "true hero" in order to become a demi-god?

Hero comes from Chi and Rho.

c H i RhO

(c)H i R(h)O

(c)H{E} R(h)O

H E R O

It wasn't just Hercules/Heracles either. According to legend, Heracles was taught by "Chiron" (there's chi and r(h)o again :))

Chiron also taught Jason, Achilles, and Aesclepius. In some variations Chiron also taught Patroclus whose death catalyzed the duel between Achilles and Hector. These were all extraordinarily talented individuals. These were geniuses in their respective disciplines.

A true "hero" in the chi rho sense of the term, would be a "spiritually advanced" person and, most likely, an initiate of some mystery cult, e.g. the Eleusinian mysteries. My guess is that they all, at the very least, had activated wisdom chakras. The heroes are presented as honorable, using their abilities in service to others. I suspect some (perhaps all) had active heart chakras, and some had active 3rd eye chakras.

Bear in mind, Chi + Rho = Phi.

Phi = the Golden Ratio

In that same Hercules movie, Herc's "life thread" turns into uncuttable gold just as the Three Fates were about to cut it. That was the moment he became a "chi rho"...a "demi-god". This is symbolic of the "golden aura" associated with enLIGHTenment. Again, auras are visible to anything with magnetosensitive vision including many animals and humans. That's what the Eleusinian Mysteries were largely about: inducing magnetosensitivity in initiates so they could see auras and know that the soul was real and can be developed.

The obvious just struck me:

If hero is a derivative of Chi and Rho, and a hero's name starts with HERAcles, that's only one letter off from hero.

Chi and Rho is even baked into the names of Heracles and, for that matter, Hera.
