Comment: First, there is an important interior decor focalizer running along the full length of Constantine's west apartment wall. Constantine has lined up a long row of large bottles filled with holy water [blessed insurance], each labeled with a
cross. They are 'in case of an emergency' - to facilitate a fast
exit from you-know-where. The Western area of any room leads to a
door, binary solution peak, or portal key that can open up a way
into mystic dimensions. The nearness to events of birth and death,
and the sacred journey, tend to materialize these points of power in
a home.
Second, the script holds [basic allusions to the seven heavens]
faithfully. Most of the usual dowser/feng shui design blueprints,
ritual formulae, and numeric symbolism appear. Some names could be
changed to protect the innocent. Gabriel, for example, is indirect
and defensive, representing the most efficient use of the back
pituitary hormones, therefore never aggressive. Gabriel interprets
the dreams of the prophet Daniel, protects and assists the Holy Family, and dictates the Koran to Muhammad. Also, Gabriel the Archangel could not interfere with the destiny path of the human race. There are few other important discrepancies in the overall presentation.
The final observation to note is related to the widening gap between the esoteric and exoteric material available in the mainstream today. This engineered set of circumstances greatly contributes to the attitude of the hero, John Constantine. Once an individual has died and been 'resurrected' he is clear that, "it isn't always the way its written in those books." Most people object to a theme with identified non-corporeals that do not appear by name in biblical script. The three names considered acceptable are: St. Michael, St. Gabriel, and St. Raphael. Formidable demonologists, exorcists, and metaphysical scholars, including many a renown cardinal, rabbi, and guru, write extensively on the complex topic of the two hierarchies, yet the information is still excluded from mainstream exoteric collectivism. Like The Matrix, Constantine is for an audience with an interest tuned to the path less taken.
Note that the name of the angel Jesus, central in the solar sphere in Mosaic system is not usually referred to as an angel whose name is mentioned in the bible, as it would confuse too many people who know the name Jesus Christ.
Red alert! above, Constantine recognizes a subtle, clever bit of arrogance that constitutes a huge blip on his exorcist screen. He must battle a hidden soldier demon that would not normally be capable of an atypical type possession. Somewhere powerful forces are advancing in an unusual pattern and he knows the veil that insulates dimensional worlds has been compromised. Early documentation of known inhabitants of the lower, infernal regions do not cover 'automatic' [blended] soldiers because they have no identity other than a number in a larger group of hostiles.
American Indian Symbolism
"To the Indian the number four has a peculiar sanctity, presumably because the Great Spirit created His universe in a square frame. This is suggestive of the veneration accorded the tetrad by the Pythagoreans, who held it to be a fitting symbol of the Creator. The legendary narratives of the strange adventures of intrepid heroes who while in the physical body penetrated the realms of the dead prove beyond question the presence of Mystery cults among the North American red men. Wherever the Mysteries were established they were recognized as the philosophic equivalents of death, for those passing through the rituals experienced all after-death conditions while still in the physical body. At the consummation of the ritual the initiate actually gained the ability to pass in and out of his physical body at will. This is the philosophic foundation for the allegories of adventures in the Indian Shadow Land, or World of Ghosts.

... Sand paintings are often prepared in a series of representations within a consecrated hogan so the patient can be placed in the center of the pattern, on the sacred swastika." -Manly P. Hall, Secret Teachings of the Ages
The American Indian swastika is [the image of] a feminine vortex that moves in harmony with the creative forces of Nature. It is perhaps the most nearly universal of religious emblems and represents the four corners of the world. The feminine vortex functions above the transitional door that leads to higher octaves and so is always positive and beneficial to the human race. The masculine vortex [created during WWII] is unpredictable and only operates beneath the door that leads to higher soul power. Many scholars assign Jupiter/Zeus/Odin the door of initiation that gives direct contact with oversoul. The text for any candidate is at least partially associated with Jupiterian issues. Positive Jupiter Urge: Vision of and Dedication to The Universal Human [as itemized in The Sermon on the Mount.]
Negative Jupiter: Bigotry, prejudice, and racism.

Robin Cross comments on Hitler's twisted version of the early races during this evolutionary time window: The Camelot of the SS [Himmler's Schutzstaffel, protection squadrons] was to be the castle at Wewelsburg, near the Teutoburg forest, which became a shrine to
Himmler's belief in a new world order. Wewelsburg was to be at its
epicentre, a pagan powerhouse that some thought would eventually
house the Holy Grail for which King Arthur's knights had quested.
The SS armed formations (collectively known as the Waffen SS)
would fight alongside the regular armed forces of the Third Reich
– seen by Himmler as the reincarnation of the Teutonic knights and
the knights of the Round Table* celebrated in Arthurian
legend.
In his book
Spear of Destiny
(1973), Trevor Ravenscroft argued that the Germans mounted a
series of expeditions between 1926 and 1943. These were, says
Ravenscroft, intended to allow the Nazis to maintain contact with
their Aryan ancestors, guardians of the occult powers of vril
[the 'Vril-ya', would-be world conquerors imbued with
psychokinetic power (vril)], who were hidden**
in underground cities... a scenario that evokes Bulwer-Lytton
[The Coming Race].
* Initiates Corner: It would be
impossible for any group of military officers or recruits to
reincarnate as conscious members of the Teutonic knights and
Arthurian Round Table unless the Jupiter tests had been passed.
Jupiterean adepts do not permit bigotry, racism, or persecution of
any human collective. The information the Nazi Party looked for is
not in the mainstream nor has it been for two evolutionary
periods. The data they wanted can be retrieved directly from the
Akasha Records only by an individual who has passed the Jupiterean
test.
** It is unclear whether the vision of this
community is part of human history prior to the shift of the Earth
crust when the area above the equator moved to the part of the
Earth beneath the equator. Speculation about the Leto triad
[Leto-Artemis-Apollo] links Hyperborea and Delos, as it resides in
the theory taught in pre-Troy mythology. See
Delos, Floating |

Keanu Reeves/Constantine press conference and Interview
Q & A excerpts lifted from the press conference scene where Keanu talked about his suspense thriller "Constantine."
Reeves stars as John Constantine, a world-travelling, mage-like misfit who investigates supernatural mysteries and the like, walking a thin line between evil and good. Constantine teams up with a female police detective, Angela (Rachel Weisz), who seeks Constantine's help while investigating the suicide-like death of her twin sister. Does it have something to do with a mysterious group called "The First of the Fallen"? And what is it about Constantine that puts him in a position where he is making deals with representatives from both Heaven and Hell?
Reeves talked about his initial love of film back in Canada, Constantine, and everything in between:
 I wasn't familiar with the character before I read the script, and when the script came to me, that aspect of the character - being based in London and being English - had changed already. So I wasn't aware of that.
When I read the script and then familiarized myself with the work, I saw that what was important was really the essence of Constantine, and we worked really hard to keep that aspect of it, because it's really what it's all about. That kind of hard-edged, hard-boiled, world-weary cynical, fatalistic, nihilistic, self-interested - with a heart. (laughter). And I think we did. I mean I hope so. I hope that fans of the comic don't feel that we sabotaged something that is so well loved.
.... To answer your question - I'll start with Constantine. The aspect for me - I think of it as a kind of secular religiosity. The piece itself is using icons and a platform in a kind of catholic heaven-and-hell, god-and-the-devil, human souls, fighting for those.
But I find that the piece itself - Constantine because of the fact that he knows - and I was hoping that these concepts could become a platform that are humanistic, that the journey of this particular hero is hopefully relatable to - even though they're such fantastic characters and situations- that it's still a man trying to figure it out.
In terms of the other roles, I hope ultimately - not only are they interesting - I think that those kinds of journeys, a hero journey, or Siddhartha - these are all kind of seeking aspects of hopefully - that have something of value in terms of - to our lives - that we can take with us - and hopefully in the works that are entertaining and - these kinds of journeys that I think all of us - especially in western traditions - relate to.
I think these motifs of seekers, messiahs, of anti-heroes, heroes - all of these aspects are journeys that I think deal with things that we deal with in our day-to-day in a way, and are entertaining.
They offer up - coming from where do you come from, what are you fighting for . . . and coming into a kind of - I don't mean it in a facile way, but, into a kind of life.
I think they're worthwhile, and if we can make them all kinds of stories, story-telling, that is always couched in this kind of engaging entertaining manner, whether it is a shadow play, a circle, a storyteller, our literature . . . the mediums that we communicate these things often times.
