PROPHECY: Lady Gaga Godmother of 12/25 Baby vs. Plagiarizing Madonna
I was laughing at the news today because it said that Lady Gaga is now the Godmother of Elton John's baby. Elton John's baby was born 12/25, which is Christmas Day.
I said 4/20/2011 in Blog Entry #3830698 regarding Lady Gaga's comments about claims that her song is Madonna.
Lady Gaga's song "Born This Way" bears striking resemblance to Madonna's "Express Yourself." Lady Gaga denies doing so.
I said in an earlier Blog that Subconscious Lady Gaga is behind it, and that Subconscious Lady Gaga takes her cues from the Planet.
If you look at the Bible, Madonna was the mother of Jesus Christ born 12/25. Technically, Lady Gaga could be said to be ripping off Scripture. She's inserting herself into a Madonna-Like role.
I claim the Planet's just teasing her because she felt that God gave her those lyrics. That's a pretty serious claim when you start invoking God. What if God, as the Planet, heard that?
I claim that Madonna was intentionally born 8/16. The Planet was setting things up. Lady Gaga is listed as born 3/28, which is the day my dad died 3/28 of 1977 from Hepatitis B.
Technically, dead dad is the same as a live mother. It means a double negative. Though it's where you have to do a reversal. It's not like a pure positive. It's where 2 wrongs are trying to make a right.
I see a lot of celebrities and music artists make references to God and they don't even realize the Planet is watching them. I just happen to be tuned into the Media and track these things.
1) The baby was measured at 7 lbs. 15 oz.
2) That 7/15 as the 7th 15th Letters would be GO
3) Go = "IR" in Spanish
3) IR = Iridium
4) Iridium = 77th Element
5) Christ = C + H + R + I + S + T
6) C + H + R + I + S + T = 3 + 8 + 18 + 9 + 19 + 20
7) 77 = 3 + 8 + 18 + 9 + 19 + 20
So Christ would be 7 lbs. 15 oz. and numerically symbolic of God.
Lady Gaga had said that she felt the lyrics for "Born This Way" came from God. That's like invoking Divinity.
Wouldn't it be interesting if God (the Planet) was listening and making a comment regarding that Adoption?
If you want to talk about Symbolism, the baby was adopted. It means that the original parents are not there. If the baby is born on 12/25 symbolizing Jesus Christ where Madonna was the Virgin Mother, then Lady Gaga as the Godmother symbolizes the "backup" or the "replacement mother."
Elton John and the spouse choosing Lady Gaga as the Godmother aren't even the real parents. So it's not officially the real parents passing on the mantle of parenthood to Lady Gaga.
It may sound like I'm bashing Lady Gaga, but I am in her situation.
I claim Lady Gaga was chosen by Elton John because of her song "Born This Way" regarding Sexual Orientation, Elton John's alternative lifestyle fits that, and both Elton John and Lady Gaga belong to the world of music.
If you really want to get into Religious Symbolism, if choosing a music artist as a Godmother because both parties involved belong to the world of music, then the appropriate Godmother really would have been Madonna as a music artist for Elton John's baby born 12/25.
Though bear in mind I'm speaking TECHNICALLY.
Just because someone is born on very particular numbers doesn't mean they're the appropriate choice.
However, I would say that Madonna is older and more mature than Lady Gaga. Madonna has been in the music industry for years. Lady Gaga's fame has only been 2 or 3 years if I'm not mistaken.
That's not to say Lady Gaga won't become wise with age or that Madonna wasn't wild in her heydey. I heard rumors over the years that Madonna had a wild streak.
However, time mellows us. I know it has mellowed me a lot. I find myself driving slower on the road whereas I remember driving recklessly and fast when I was a teenager with a car.
On a side note, I included a news article that just popped up on the news feed less than an hour or so ago. It's about "Born Again Bibles."
I had joked that Lady Gaga was now plagiarizing the Bible because her insertion as a replacement mother of a 12/25 infant would be like replacing Madonna.
That's like a Religious comparison to the music. My claim is that it's the Subconscious Collective dropping hints about what's going on with Lady Gaga's song "Born This Way."
I had said that even if Lady Gaga swears up and down and on a stack of Holy Bibles that she didn't steal Madonna's music, her Subconscious drew from Madonna.
The Subconscious Mind is capable of suggestion and can easily insert things into Lady Gaga's mind.
In fact, as an artist, it's like a form of Lucid Dreaming. When seeking inspiration, you are pulling from another Plane almost.
From what I heard, Lady Gaga said she wrote that song in 10 minutes. None of us where there, but when it comes to inspiration, it means that she had an "epiphany."
Some event or some incident happened that caused Lady Gaga to start scribbling like mad. She was trying to capture her inspiration. I know what that's like.
I also know that when you're trying to chase after ideas, that's where you're most vulnerable to suggestion by your Subconscious Mind. Your environment can be manipulated so that you can trigger thought.
Only Lady Gaga knows what happened on the day she had her inspiration to write that song in 10 minutes.
As for the "Born Again Bibles," I'm listing that because I've been saying that I've ben continually honing and perfecting my Psychic Abilities to tap into the Media or plug into the News Feed.
So I naturally will notice stuff that passes through the Associated Press. Because I use Mathematical Equations, Formulas, and Calculations that lend themselves to Earth as a Super Computer and that Communication Grid, I have more authority and knowledge than most people on what's going on in the world.
No one else pays attention to this stuff and thinks news is all random.
On top of that, they think the Planet Earth is an inanimate object.
Well, what if it turned out that the Earth was a living organism and can express itself in events that happen around the world geologically or that influence major trends of society via the Subconscious Collective?
Wouldn't the person (like me) who believes it is out there be someone the Planet and Subconscious Collective would gravitate toward vs. the rest of the 6 billion people on the Planet that either don't understand or don't even believe the Planet is alive?
That's why it's a pretty bold statement when you start claiming you get your ideas from God or speak to God.
Normally, there's no one to verify it.
It's like listening to stupid Trade Chat on World of WarCraft. People on Trade Chat there are a bunch of kids. They do name-calling and make up information out of thin air that can't be verified:
1) "Hey, your mom pays me for sex."
2) "I saw PERSON do ACTION. Looks like he opened a can of stupid and drink the whole bottle"
There's all kinds of verbal abuse and garbage. People just sit in front of their computers and make up things. That's why it's interesting how I get flamed and ridiculed for using Math Formulas and Equations where I write a mathematical proof that shows you LINE BY LINE how I came up with my calculation.
People can say what I do is crazy, but at least you can follow the thread and how I came up with my answers. The rest of the people just make stuff up.

Gaga's a Godmother!
As long speculated, Elton John and husband David Furnish have anointed Lady Gaga as the godmother of their son Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John, born last December.
"Yes, yes she is," John, 63, finally confirms to Barbara Walters in an upcoming interview teased Friday morning on Good Morning America. "When you get to the real person under there, there's a real simple person under there who loves her parents."
PHOTOS: Elton John and David Furnish through the years
Added Furnish, 48: "Zachary's going to inherit an incredible musical legacy from his father one day, and she will be a good person to guide him through the ins and outs of the music business, 'cause she sure knows everything about the business now."
The couple have long hinted about Gaga's involvement in their little boy's life. John joked on Saturday Night Live April 2, "I've always said that Mars ain't the kind of place to raise your kids. And Gaga loves Mars. She says Mars has good schools and great discos."

John and Furnish first broke the news of their little boy's Christmas 2010 birth exclusively to Us Weekly.
"We are overwhelmed with happiness and joy at this very special moment," the couple of 15-plus years (who married in 2005) told Us in a joint statement. "Zachary is healthy and doing really well, and we are very proud and happy parents."

Who's Your Daddy? Who's Sperm? Who's Your Momma?
Elton John Baby Elton John Baby Boy By Surrogate Mother
By Delwyn Lounsbury
Singer Elton John, 62, and partner David Furnish, 48 announced the birth of their son Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John. The Elton John baby boy was born Christmas, December 25 2010. by surrogate mother in California. "And they shall be Levon" was a line in one of Elton's songs. The baby was a very healthy 7 pounds and 15 ounces. Reportedly, they got tips on surrogacy from Sara Jessica Parker and Mathew Broderick who had twins in June of 2009 using her eggs and Mathew's sperm.
California is one of the few states that has no laws against or banning surrogacy. Reports are that the couple chose California because of the more flexible laws especially with regards to gay and lesbian parents seeking surrogates.
The surrogate birth fulfills their dream to become parents. The child is the first for the couple. However, in 2009 they traveled to an orphanage in the Ukraine to try and adopt 2 young brothers. Their application to adopt was declined by the Ukrainian authorities. "David always wanted to adopt a child and I always said 'no' because I am 62 and I think because of all the traveling I do and the life I have, maybe it wouldn't be fair for the child," Elton John told reporters then.
"For many years we have talked about fulfilling one of our greatest wishes by becoming parents. And now this wish has been granted to us, we feel so blessed and lucky. We are overwhelmed with happiness and joy at this very special moment," Said Elton John.
The legendary songwriter, performer and now new father spoke to the media about his excitement. "Zachary is healthy and doing well." The surrogate mother's name was not released. Although this is John and Furnish's first child, the five-time Grammy winner and partner have 6 godchildren, including John Lennon's son, Sean; Elizabeth Hurley's son, Damien; and David and Victoria Beckham's two sons, Brooklyn and Romeo.With so many unknowns in going overseas for surrogacy, this is further evidence that surrogate parenting can more done more safely right here in California.
The Elton John baby boy surrogacy news comes after celebrities Neil Patrick Harris and boyfriend David Burka disclosed back in October 2010 that they had twins by surrogate mom and egg donor. The girl named Harper Grace and the boy named Gideon Scott were born October 12, 2010 and now live with their famous fathers in their Hollywood Hills home which has a new nursery designed with an old-school Disneyland theme park decor.
Amazingly, the implantation of a donor egg and both fathers sperm resulted in each genetically fathering a child. It is not known which one is which and may never be known.
On Twitter on Christmas Day Neil Patrick Harris wrote, "Great - Congratulations to David Furnish and Elton John on the bitht of their son, Zachary! Can't wait for play dates in the south of France."
Those interested in surrogacy should be aware that a 1993 California gestational surrogacy court case (Johnson v. Calvert) awarded the intended parents all rights to a surrogate born child. Ever since there has been good court acceptance. The birth certificate will have the intended parents names.
In 2005 the California Supreme Court decided three cases together that had to do with lesbian couples who had reproduced using surrogacy. The court ruled that under the the Uniform Parentage Act, two women can be the legal parents of a child produced through surrogacy.
This ruling presumably applies to the rest of the LGBT community. Since these court rulings are now case law, this makes California the land of opportunity for infertile people around the world plus gay surrogacy, lesbian surrogacy and same sex parenting.
We welcome Elton John baby boy, Zachary.

PORT LUDLOW, Jefferson County - n a small, quiet workshop on three acres of rural land, bookbinder David Myhre carefully wraps an Ace bandage around an old, worn Bible.
The Bible is centuries old, its ornate leather cover rotted in places, its spine barely held together when it arrived at Myhre's doorstep.
Over several days, he has carefully scraped old glue off the underside of the old leather with a dull X-acto knife, pared sheets of new leather to replace the old, and glued the restored original spine cover on top.
"When you get injured, what do you do?" asks Myhre, who puts the bandage on to make sure pressure is evenly distributed as the new glue dries. "You put an Ace bandage on it. Well, this book is sort of injured. It needs a new spine."
In this painstaking, meticulous way, Myhre, 61, is giving new lives to old Bibles that often have great personal meaning for their owners.
Myhre binds and restores all sorts of publications - from books to newspapers to legal documents - at his one-man shop, Duckabush Book Bindery. But in recent years, he's created a niche restoring old Bibles - about 150 of them last year.
For Myhre, it's been a spot of economic brightness in a trade that's seen demand plummet as books and other publications increasingly go digital.
Though, by many accounts, the market is small, "People still want to preserve old family Bibles or Bibles they were given," said David Bundy, associate provost for library services at Fuller Theological Seminary.
Apprenticeship
At the workshop next to his home, Bibles and books to be restored are stacked on tables. Sheets of decorative paper and thin leather line pullout shelves, and large pieces of machinery - some manufactured between the Civil War and World War I - stand tall.
Despite his passion for the craft, Myhre didn't set out to get into the book - or Bible - restoration business.
He didn't even particularly like to read as a kid. But shop classes? Those he liked.
After graduating from high school, he drew a number in the draft lottery that meant he had a high chance of getting sent to Vietnam. But he found out that if he were a trade apprentice in a union shop, he could get a deferment.
He got into an apprenticeship program at a trade bindery and eventually launched his own business, binding everything from issues of Seattle Weekly to legal documents, cookbooks and self-published books.
Business was good enough to support a growing family: his wife, Jani Myhre, and their three kids.
But in the past decade, as publications became increasingly digitized, and then the economy tanked, business dropped.
One area that didn't: Bible restoration.
He started slowly, restoring just one or two a month over the years. But as people heard about his work, the niche started to grow and he took more classes on restoring old books.
It's unknown how many Bible restorers there are in the country. Most larger book binderies have a team that restores old books.
And, "There are little one-person shops that do that all over the place," said Mark Melahn, general manager of The HF Group-Washington, which Melahn said is the largest book bindery in the state. "But it's not nearly what it used to be."
All sizes and ages
For Myhre, business ebbs and flows. He might get one Bible one month, 20 the next.
Most come from Western Washington; some from other states.
Sometimes they are smaller, take-to-church-size Bibles. Often, he gets bigger ones - each larger than a couple of Yellow Pages stacked together.
The big ones are often family Bibles that date back centuries.
They became especially popular in the 19th century, possibly because technological advances made Bibles easier to print and railroads made distribution - previously done on horse-drawn carts or in boats - easier, said Paul Gutjahr, associate professor of English at Indiana University in Bloomington.
Displaying the big Bibles in one's home also became "a totem of refinement" among middle-class families, Gutjahr said.
Aside from a few limited editions, the big ones don't often have a high resale value. But they do have sentimental value.
Typically, they have a section of family-history pages placed in them, where family members record births, weddings and deaths.
People will "show me where their great-great-grandfather signed it," Myhre says. "Or sometimes someone will buy a Bible at a used-book store and want me to remove the old records pages and put in new blank ones for their family."
Myhre restored several Bibles for a Silverdale couple: the Rev. Norman Nideng, 89, a retired Baptist pastor, and his wife, Eleanor Fischer Nideng, 80, a retired director of purchasing at a college.
Among Eleanor's most treasured restored Bibles: a New King James version that played a special role in the couple's romance.
Norman had known Eleanor's first husband decades ago in seminary. They met again after both their first spouses died. Their friendship grew by email.
Then, one Christmas, Norman gave her that Bible.
"It has special meaning to me because it was the first gift that Norm gave me," Eleanor said.
Over the years, she used it so much - nearly every day - that it began to fall apart.
Myhre resewed the loose pages, replaced the leather cover and put in two ribbon markers, allowing Eleanor to once again read passages from it every morning, refer to it during Bible study on Wednesdays and again at church on Sundays.
"A few simple rules"
It takes from a few hours to several weeks, and from $100 to $500 or so, for Myhre to restore an old Bible.
The work might include anything from a simple leather reconditioning to more extensive cover, binding and spine repairs, or a complete resewing of the binding.
"Clients tell me what they want," he says. "I tell them what the books need."
To him, each hard-bound book he works on is not just a vehicle for information. "It has a little soul," he says.
But a paperback? "It's not a book," he says. "It's a scratch pad."
And don't get him started on Kindles and their ilk. "That's a four-letter word in my shop."
While not a religious man - "I like to live my life by a few simple rules," he said, "don't be judgmental and be nice" - he was aghast when someone brought in an old Bible with sections cut from it that the previous owner had apparently sold.
"Slicing into an old book like that just isn't right," says Myhre, shaking his head. "It's sacrilegious. I guess for a Bible, it really is a sacrilege."
Rob VandeWeghe, who runs Windmill Ministries in Quilcene, Jefferson County, buys and sells antique, illustrated Bibles, turning to Myhre to restore those in disrepair.
"Many people, when they fix up these things, they fix up some substance on the outside that makes it look like it's fixed," he said. "But if you open up the Bible 30, 40 times, it's broken up."
Myhre, though, does excellent work, VandeWeghe says, allowing him to see in the restored Bibles why he fell in love with them in the first place.
"There's so much art in there, and reverence," VandeWeghe said. "It's pretty amazing. It's a real respect to God."
