16.3 The Black Horseman of Revelation 6
— The Third of the Four Horsemen —
Electromagnetism
The four horsemen of Revelation 6 appear to be congruent with the four natural forces. The black horseman is highly similar to the Electromagnetism.
The Horse and the Force | ||
The Black Horseman of Revelation 6 | ||
Electromagnetism | ||
Sequential: Third | ||
The black horse shows up third. | ||
Electromagnetism breaks free from the final symmetry together with the Weak Nuclear Force, so this would be a mild discrepancy in the parallel. Since this is a self-similarity, mild discrepancies are allowed. | ||
The living creature: Man | ||
Though strongly challenged by some, many will agree that humanity is separated from the animal realm by her ability of contemplative thought. | ||
Just like man is an animal, but one with a very lively mind, Electromagnetism is a force, but a very lively one. Where the other forces simply combine or break apart, Electromagnetism causes activity that is far less linear. Electromagnetism allows chemical processes to occur. Electromagnetism builds atoms and gives them life and means to 'communicate' and combine, rather than simply bumping into each other. | ||
The color: Black | ||
Black is complementary to white; the color of the first horse | ||
Electromagnetism is kindred to Gravity in that both are long distance forces. Photons only luminesce when they hit an object. We can see that when at night the sky is dark but still doused with photons, evidenced by the moon that lights up because of it. Black is the color of receptivity. That is probably why the Bride is black (and not white! See Song of Solomon 1:5, or read the Abarim article). | ||
Attribute: Scales | ||
Scales in Scriptures are either used literally, to conduct economy, or figuratively, to 'weigh' issues and derive conclusions. Both uses require some intelligence. | ||
Where Gravity has a 'the more the merrier' attitude and the Strong Nuclear Force combines quarks either into threesomes or twosomes and never anything else, Electromagnetism always seeks to balance positive and negative charges, no matter how much of each are there to work with. Electromagnetism causes the economy of matter that is needed to run the universe and the life that came from it. | ||
Activity | ||
From the center of the four living creatures comes a voice. (The horseman himself doesn't do anything). This seems to indicate that the work of the black horseman unites the forces in such a way that a singular voice rises from the accompanying creatures. | ||
Life most certainly requires all four forces, but is essentially based on Electromagnetism. | ||
The Voice | ||
The voice says: "A choenix of wheat for a denarius, and three choenixes of barley for a denarius; and do not misuse the oil and the wine." The equation seems to indicate that one unit of wheat is worth three units of barley. Barley was predominantly used as fodder for animals (calf: Strong Nuclear Force), while wheat was consumed by people (man: Electromagnetism). | ||
The electrical charges of one proton (a threesome of quarks) and that of one electron are balanced. Oil; from squeezed olives. Oil heals, gives light and with it all men of clerical sovereignty (kings, priests and prophets) where anointed. The word Christ actually means 'anointed one'. Gethsemane means olive press. Wine; from squeezed grapes. Used in Scriptures to indicate either spirits or spirited people. |
