The Image of Creation inside St Peters, Rome

Settlement in a virgin land and the building of St Peters was Creation much like sermons of hallowing land in the millenium before our era. The sermon was anchored to the number 3, the great circle of the heavens, the cube 216, the diameter of a circle, 36(0). The entire system was tied to sunrise and sunset, the stellar sphere and the horizon. The underlying ideology was based on fastening the cardinal directions and precise geodetic surveys. The foundation of law and justice could not be separated from right proportions and numbers. Administration was of divine origin.

Imbeded into the he pillars that hold up the huge dome are chapels of; 2 lady saints, Helen and Veronika and 2 men saints Andrew and Longinus. Just like all ancient deities were immersed in Christ, so was all the world engulfed under one roof in St. Peters. The magnificent building is based on the proportions; 432, 234, 216, 108 and PI 3.1416

The symbolic plan of St Peters was the same concept as the Cosmic Image of Rangárvellir, Iceland in the scale 1:1000.

The chapel of St Veronica/Berþórshvoll

The myths of Veronika, Helena, Longinus and Andrew were wowen into the 4 sectors of the area around the pope’s altar with a 216 foot diameter. They represent the deities that carry the vault of heaven. In its SW sector where the ideological Primeval Hill is located on a Cosmic Image, Veronica appeares as the wise one, the teacher of good things like residents in this sector of a Cosmic Image do: Njall the peacefull wise old man of Bergthorshvoll. –Ribe, from where Christianity was preached in Denmark. –Isola Sacra from where St. Augustine tought Christianity. –Port Royal outside Paris, –the island Eugeana as the gate to Athens, –the Coopers Hill in Runnimede, London, etc. All those locations mark a new sun of the year’s cycle, prossperity and new learning.

On the Primeval Hill, Veronika showes her veil to everybody with an image of Jesus on it, saying: “He is risen”. Her capel stands at the sector on the sun watch where the sun is at its lowest elevation, Christmas, from there it starts to climb up on the vault of heaven again and new year begins.

The chapel of St Longinus/Stöng

216 feet opposide is the chaple of Longinus where he stands holding his Rod, “Stöng”. It seems the actual SW-NE diameter from lowest to highest elevation of the sun, was symbolised by his Rod.  This place was the most ideal place on a sun watch of a Cosmic Image. As the sun was at its highest elevation it had allready started its decent. Longinus used his spear to kill Christ at the haight of his power –so he may rise up again.

The chapel of St Andrew/Goðasteinn

East from Veronika’s Primeval Hill is the chapel of St Andrew who occupies the same place as Odin’s Goðasteinn on the Cosmic Image. Andrew died a martyrs death on a Greek Cross tilting 45° in the seabed, the cold sector of the sunwatch. Sunrise at this spot meant winter was ahead, the world sailed into the coldest period of the year. This sector was symbolised by archetypal imagery of; manhood, valour, as is embedded in the name, Andrew, which in Greek means: manly, brave. Stamina and wisdom are caracteristics that help a person in the dark, knowing after darkness comes brightness. The color of this place is the dark scale associated with the sea –but with a silver lining, because opposide Silver on the sun watch is the Gold of sun exemplified by archetypal Christian Cross.

The chapel of St Helena/Skálholt

216 feet NW is the chapel of St. Helena representing the place on the sun watch, where sunset meant the comming of summer, which promises eternal life for those who believe. Helena is associated with “The straight, Christian Cross”, which she erected every where she went. Same concept as projected by christians who erected their first church in this sector of the sun watch as the new religion gained foothold in a new land.

The center, the pope’s altar/Steinkross

Lines crossed in the dead center, where Peter, God’s emmisary on Earth, was buried. Over his grave, under the Dome of Heaven is the pope’s altar. From there the Cosmic Image extends 108(000) feet in all directions. In all Cosmic Images discovered, Nations took care to make this their sacred center, their Royal Burrial ground.
