The end of all Hopi ceremonialism willcome when a "Kachina" removeshis mask during a dance in the plaza before uninitiated children [thegeneral public]. For a while there will be no more ceremonies, nomore faith. Then Oraibi will be rejuvenated with its faith andceremonies, marking the start of a new cycle of Hopi life.

World War III will be started by those peoples who firstrevealedthe light (the divine wisdom or intelligence) in the other oldcountries (India, China, Islamic Nations, Africa.)

The United States will be destroyed, land and people, by atomicbombs and radioactivity. Only the Hopis and their homeland will bepreserved as an oasis to which refugees will flee. Bomb shelters area fallacy.

"It is only materialistic people whoseek to makeshelters. Those who are at peace in their hearts already are in thegreat shelter of life. There is no shelter for evil. Those who takeno part in the making of world division by ideology are ready toresume life in another world, be they Black, White, Red, or Yellowrace. They are all one, brothers."

The war will be,

"a spiritual conflict with materialmatters.Material matters will be destroyed by spiritual beings who willremain to create one world and one nation under one power, that ofthe Creator."

That time is not far off. It will comewhen theSaquasohuh (BlueStar) Kachina dances in the plaza and removeshis mask. Herepresents a blue star, far off and yet invisible, which will makeits appearance soon. The time is foretold by a song sung during theWuwuchim ceremony. It was sung in 1914 just before World War I, andagain in 1940 before World War II, describing the disunity,corruption, and hatred contaminating Hopi rituals, which werefollowed by the same evils spreading over the world.

This same songwas sung in 1961 during the Wuwuchim ceremony.

The Emergence to the future Fifth World has begun. It is being madeby the humble people of little nations, tribes, and racialminorities.

"You can read this in the earth itself.Plant forms fromprevious worlds are beginning to spring up as seeds" [as described inSW-II, Effects and Coming Events # 1].

This could start a new studyof botany if people were wise enough to read them. The same kinds ofseeds are being planted in the sky as stars. The same kinds of seedsare being planted in our hearts. All these are the same, dependinghow you look at them.

That is what makes the Emergence to thenext,Fifth World.

"These comprise the nine most importantprophecies of the Hopis,connected with the creation of the nine worlds: the three previousworlds on which we lived, the present Fourth World, the three futureworlds we have yet to experience, and the world of Taiowa, theCreator, and his nephew, Sotuknang."

The Hopi and others who were savedfrom the Great Flood made asacred covenant with the Great Spirit never to turn away from him.He made a set of sacred stone tablets, called Tiponi, intowhich hebreathed his teachings, prophecies, and warnings. Before the GreatSpirit hid himself again, he placed before the leaders of the fourdifferent racial groups four different colors and sizes of corn;each was to choose which would be their food in this world. The Hopiwaited until last and picked the smallest ear of corn.

At this, theGreat Spirit said:

"It is well done. You have obtained thereal corn, for all theothers are imitations in which are hidden seeds of different plants.You have shown me your intelligence; for this reason I will place inyour hands these sacred stone tablets, Tiponi, symbol of power andauthority over all land and life to guard, protect, and hold intrust for me until I shall return to you in a later day, for I amthe First and I am the Last."

The Great Chieftain of the Bow Clanled the faithful ones to thisnew land, but he fell into evil ways. His two sons scolded him forhis mistake, and after he died they assumed the responsibilities ofleadership. Each brother was given a set of Tiponi, and both wereinstructed to carry them to a place to which the Great Spiritdirected them.

The elder brother [of the shining light] was told to go immediatelyto the east, toward the rising sun, and upon reaching hisdestination to start back immediately to look for his youngerbrother, who remained on Turtle Island [the ContinentalUnitedStates of America].

His mission was to help his younger brother to bring about thePurification Day, at which time all evildoers would bepunished ordestroyed, after which real peace, brotherhood, and everlasting lifewould be established. The elder brother would restore all land tohis younger brother, from whom the Evil one among the white men hadtaken it. The elder brother [of the shining light] also would cometo look for the Tiponi tablets and fulfill the mission given him bythe Great Spirit.

The younger brother was instructed to travel throughout the land andmark his footsteps as he went about. Both brothers were told that agreat white star would appear in the sky; when that happened, allpeople would know that the elder brother had reached hisdestination. Thereupon all people were to settle wherever theyhappened to be at that time, there to remain until the elder brotherreturned.

The Hopi settled in the area now known as Four Corners, where thestate lines of Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado meet. Theylived in humble simplicity and the land produced abundant crops.This area is the "heart" of Turtle Island [the U.S.] and of MotherEarth, and it is the microcosmic image of the macrocosm of theentire planet. Each Hopi clan perpetuates a unique ceremony, and theceremonies together maintain the balance of natural forces ofsunlight, rain and winds, and reaffirm the Hopi respect for all lifeand trust in the Great Spirit.

The Hopi were told that after a time White Men would come andtaketheir land and try to lead the Hopi into evil ways. But in spite ofall the pressures against them, the Hopi were told they must hold totheir ancient religion and their land, though always withoutviolence. If they succeeded, they were promised that their peopleand their land would be a center from which the True Spirit would bereawakened.

It is said that after many years the elder brother might change thecolor of his skin, but his hair will remain black. He will have theability to write, and he will be the only person able to read theTiponi. When he returns to find his younger brother, the Tiponi willbe placed side by side to show all the world that they are truebrothers. Then great judgment will take place, for the elder willhelp the younger brother to obtain real justice for all Indianbrothers who have been cruelly mistreated by the white man since hecame to Turtle Island.

The transformed elder brother, the True White Brother, willwear ared cloak or a red cap, similar to the pattern on the back of ahorned toad. He will bring no religion but his own, and will bringwith him the Tiponi tablets. He will be all-powerful; none will beable to stand against him. He will come swiftly, and in one day gaincontrol of this entire continent.

It is said,

"If he comes from theEast, the destruction will not be so bad. But if he comes from theWest, do not get up on your housetops to see because he will have nomercy."

The True White Brother will bringwith him two great, intelligentand powerful helpers, one of whom will have a sign of a swastika(amasculine symbol of purity), and the sign of the sun. Thesecondgreat helper will have the sign of a celtic cross with redlines(representing female life blood) between the arms of the cross.

When the Great Purification is near, these helpers will shake theearth first for a short time in preparation. After they shake theearth two times more, they will be joined by the True WhiteBrother,who will become one with them and bring the Purification Day to theworld. All three will help the "younger brother" (the Hopi and otherpure-hearted people) to make a better world. In the prophecies, thetwo helpers are designated by the Hopi word for "population," as ifthey were large groups of people.

The Hopi were warned that if these three great beings failed,terrible evil would befall the world and great numbers of peoplewould be killed. However, it was said that they would succeed ifenough Hopi remained true to the ancient spirit of their people. TheTrue White Brother and his helpers will show the people of earth agreat new life plan that will lead to everlasting life. The earthwill become new and beautiful again, with an abundance of life andfood.

Those who are saved will share everythingequally. All raceswill intermarry and speak one tongue and be a family.

Hopi prophecy states that World War III will be startedby thepeople who first received the Light - China, Palestine,India andAfrica.

When the war comes, the United Stateswill be destroyed by"gourds of ashes" which will fall to the ground, boiling the riversand burning the earth, where no grass will grow for many years, andcausing a disease that no medicine can cure. This can only meannuclear or atomic bombs; no other weapon causes such effects.

Bombshelters will be useless, for,

"Those who are at peace in theirhearts already are in the Great Shelter of Life. There is no shelterfor evil. When theSaquahuh (Blue Star) Kachina dancesin the plazaand removes his mask, the time of the great trial will be here."

TheHopi believe that only they will be saved.

The Hopi also have prophesied that,

"Turtle Island could turn overtwo or three times and the oceans could join hands and meet thesky."

This seems to be a prophecy of a "poleshift" - a flipping,of the planet on its axis. The Hopi call this imminent condition -and that of society today - "Koyaanisqatsi", which means "worldoutof balance...a state of life that calls for another way. "
 

The following extraordinary Hopi prophecy was first publishedin amimeographed manuscript that circulated among several Methodist andPresbyterian churches in 1959. Some of the prophecies were publishedin 1963 by Frank Waters inThe Book of the Hopi. The accountbeginsby describing how, while driving along a desert highway one hot dayin the summer of 1958, a minister named David Young stopped tooffera ride to an Indian elder, who accepted with a nod.

After riding insilence for several minutes, the Indian said:

"I am White Feather, a Hopi of theancient Bear Clan. In my longlife I have traveled through this land, seeking out my brothers, andlearning from them many things full of wisdom. I have followed thesacred paths of my people, who inhabit the forests and many lakes inthe east, the land of ice and long nights in the north, and theplaces of holy altars of stone built many years ago by my brothers'fathers in the south. From all these I have heard the stories of thepast, and the prophecies of the future. Today, many of theprophecies have turned to stories, and few are left -- the pastgrows longer, and the future grows shorter.

"And now WhiteFeather is dying. His sons have all joined hisancestors, and soon he too shall be with them. But there is no oneleft, no one to recite and pass on the ancient wisdom. My peoplehave tired of the old ways - the great ceremonies that tell of ourorigins, of our emergence into the Fourth World, are almost allabandoned, forgotten, yet even this has been foretold. The timegrows short.

"My people await Pahana, the lost WhiteBrother, [from the stars] asdo all our brothers in the land. He will not be like the white menwe know now, who are cruel and greedy. we were told of their cominglong ago. But still we await Pahana.

"He will bring with himthe symbols, and the missing piece of thatsacred tablet now kept by the elders, given to him when he left,that shall identify him as our True White Brother.

"TheFourth World shall end soon, and the Fifth World will begin.This the elders everywhere know. The Signs over many years have beenfulfilled, and so few are left.

"This is the First Sign: Weare told of the coming of thewhite-skinned men, like Pahana, but not living like Pahana men whotook the land that was not theirs. And men who struck their enemieswith thunder.

"This is the Second Sign: Our lands will see thecoming of spinningwheels filled with voices. In his youth, my father saw this prophecycome true with his eyes -- the white men bringing their families inwagons across the prairies."

"This is the Third Sign: Astrange beast like a buffalo but withgreat long horns, will overrun the land in large numbers. TheseWhite Feather saw with his eyes -- the coming of the white men'scattle."

"This is the Fourth Sign: The land will be crossedby snakes ofiron."

"This is the Fifth Sign: The land shall becriss-crossed by a giantspider's web."

"This is the Sixth sign: The land shall becriss-crossed with riversof stone that make pictures in the sun."

"This is the SeventhSign: You will hear of the sea turning black,and many living things dying because of it."

"This is theEight Sign: You will see many youth, who wear theirhair long like my people, come and join the tribal nations, to learntheir ways and wisdom.

"And this is the Ninth and Last Sign:You will hear of adwelling-place in the heavens, above the earth, that shall fall witha great crash. It will appear as a blue star. Very soon afterthis,the ceremonies of my people will cease.

"These are the Signsthat great destruction is coming. The worldshall rock to and fro. The white man will battle against otherpeople in other lands - with those who possessed the first light ofwisdom. There will be many columns of smoke and fire such as WhiteFeather has seen the white man make in the deserts not far fromhere. Only those which come will cause disease and a great dying.

"Many of my people, understanding the prophecies, shall besafe.Those who stay and live in the places of my people also shall besafe. Then there will be much to rebuild. And soon - very soonafterward - Pahana will return. He shall bring with him thedawn ofthe Fifth World. He shall plant the seeds of his wisdom in theirhearts. Even now the seeds are being planted. These shall smooth theway to the Emergence into the Fifth World.

"But White Feathershall not see it. I am old and dying. You -perhaps will see it. In time, in time..."

The old Indian fell silent. They hadarrived at his destination, andReverend David Young stopped to let him out of the car. Theynevermet again. Reverend Young died in 1976, so he did not live to seethe further fulfillment of this remarkable prophecy.

The signs are interpreted as follows:

• The First Sign is of guns.

• TheSecond Sign is of the pioneers' covered wagons.

• The Third Sign is oflonghorn cattle.

• The Fourth Sign describes the railroadtracks.

• TheFifth Sign is a clear image of our electric power and telephonelines.

• The Sixth Sign describes concretehighways and theirmirage-producing effects.

• The Seventh Sign foretells of oilspillsin the ocean.

• The Eighth Sign clearly indicates the"Hippy Movement"of the 1960s.

• The Ninth Sign was the U.S. SpaceStation Skylab,which fell to Earth in 1979. According to Australian eye-witnesses,it appeared to be burning blue.

Another Hopi prophecy warns that nothingshould be brought back fromthe Moon - obviously anticipating the Apollo 11 mission thatreturned with samples of lunar basalt. It this was done, the Hopiwarned, the balance of natural and universal laws and forces wouldbe disturbed, resulting in earthquakes, severe changes in weatherpatterns, and social unrest. All these things are happening today,though of course not necessarily because of Moon rocks.

The Hopi also predicted that when the "heart" of the Hopi land trustis dug up, great disturbances will develop in the balance of nature,for the Hopi holy land is the microcosmic image of the entireplanet; any violations of nature in the Four Corners region will bereflected and amplified all over the Earth.

In 1959, a six-man delegation of traditional Hopi leaders led by thelate spiritual leader, Dan Katchongva, traveled to the UnitedNations Building in New York to fulfill a sacred mission inaccordance with ancient Hopi instructions. Because of theirprophetic knowledge, the Hopi leaders felt it was time to go east tothe edge of their motherland, where "a house of mica" [The UnitedNations building] would stand at this time, where GreatLeaders frommany lands would be gathered to help any people who are in trouble."

They were to go when the motherland of the Hopi and other Indianbrothers were about to be taken away from them and their way of lifewas in danger of being completely destroyed by evil ones among theWhite Men and by some other Indian brothers who were influenced bythe White Race. This is a clear and present danger: the betrayal ofIndian-U.S.A. treaties, land sales, and coal and uranium mining aredestroying the Hopi land and its people - and all other peoples andlands, in eventual effect...

According to prophecy, at least one, two or three leaders or nationswould hear and understand the Hopi warnings, as,

"It is told thatthey too should know these ancient instructions".

Upon hearing themessage of the Hopi, they would act immediately to correct manywrongs being done to the chosen race - the Red Man who was grantedpermission to hold in trust all land and life for the Great Spirit.This prophecy would seem to have failed. Hopi prophecy also declaresthat the doors of the "Glass House" would be closed to them.

Thiswas the case at first, though they have delivered their message tothe United Nations Assembly since then:

"When the Great Leaders in the GlassHouse refuse to open the doorto you when you stand before it that day, [Repeated, again in 1993]do not be discouraged or turn about on the path you walk, but takecourage, determination, and be of great rejoicing in your hearts,for on that day the White Race who are on your land with you havecut themselves from you and thereon lead themselves to the GreatestPunishment at the Day of Purification. Many shall bedestroyed fortheir sins and evil ways. The Great Spirit has decreed it and no onecan stop it, change it, or add anything to it. It shall befulfilled!"

On August 7, 1970, a spectacular UFOsighting was witnessed bydozens of people and photographed by Chuck Roberts of thePrescott(Arizona) "Courier". This sighting occurred after a "UFO calling" byPaul Solem and several Hopi Indians. This sighting wasinterpretedby some Hopis as being a partial fulfillment of a certain Hopiprophecy given by the Great Spirit Maasau and inscribed on SecondMesa, warning of the coming of Purification Day, when the true Hopiwill be flown to other planets in "ships without wings."

Hopi prophecy also tells us that there will be a mass migration ofIndians northward from Mexico and Central and South America. Themigration will be led by a 130-year old Indian named EtchataEtchana. The movement will come after the huge fire and explosionthat will herald the advent of the True White Brother.

According to Hopi belief, the survivorsof the Great Delugethousands of years ago split up into four groups that moved north,south, east and west. Only one group completed their journey - tothe North Pole and back - under the guidance of a brilliant "star"in which the Great Spirit Maasau traveled. When he landed, hedrew apetroglyph on Second Mesa, showing a maiden (with the traditional"butterfly" hair arrangement) riding in a wingless, dome-shapedcraft. The petroglyph signified the coming Day of Purificationwhenthe true Hopi will fly to other planets in "ships without wings."

The prophecy also warns that there will be three divisions among theHopi

• The first division was in 1906 betweenthe Traditionalists andthe Modernists. The Traditionalists were forced to leave Oraibi andmove to Hotevilla.

• The second division took place in thewake of thespectacular appearance of UFOs in August, 1970.

Near Oraibi, Arizona, there is apetroglyph known as Prophecy Rockwhich symbolizes many Hopi prophecies.

Its interpretation is:

The large human figure on the left isthe Great Spirit. The bow inhis left hand represents his instructions to the Hopi to lay downtheir weapons. The vertical line to the right of the Great Spirit isa time scale in thousands of years. The point at which the greatSpirit touches the line is the time of his return.

Prophecy Rock

 

The "life path" established by the GreatSpirit divides into thelower, narrow path of continuous Life in harmony with nature and thewide upper road of white man's scientific achievements. The barbetween the paths, above the cross, is the coming of white men; theCross is that of Christianity. The circle below the crossrepresentsthe continuous Path of Life.

The four small human figures onthe upper road represent, on onelevel, the past three worlds and the present; on another level, thefigures indicate that some of the Hopi will travel the white man'spath, having been seduced by its glamour.

The two circles onthe lower Path of Life are the "great shaking ofthe earth" (World Wars One and Two). The swastika in the sun and theCeltic cross represent the two helpers of Pahana, the True WhiteBrother.

The short line that returns to the straight Path ofLife is the lastchance for people to turn back to nature before the upper roaddisintegrates and dissipates. The small circle above the Path ofLife, after the last chance, is the Great Purification, after whichcorn will grow in abundance again when the Great Spirit returns. Andthe Path of Life continues forever...

The Hopi shield in thelower right corner symbolizes the Earth andthe Four-Corners area where the Hopi have been reserved. The arms ofthe cross also represent the four directions in which they migratedaccording to the instructions of the Great Spirit.

The dotsrepresent the four colors of Hopi corn, and the four racialcolors of humanity.
