The
Count of Saint Germain was a prominent figure in European high
society in the mid 1700s. This controversial figure was regarded by
many of his peers as the keenest of philosophers and ridiculed by
others as a charlatan. What is generally agreed upon by occultists
is that The Count of Saint Germain was a master of secret mystical
sciences. He seemed to be a man who could do absolutely anything.
His talents, rƩsumƩ, and mysterious wealth garnered him much
attention. Even many notable figures of 18th century Europe, like
Louis XV were impressed and praised him for his intelligence.
Saint-Germain
traveled extensively throughout Europe for 40 years — and in all
that time never seemed to age. Those who met him were impressed by
his many abilities and peculiarities: He could play the violin like
a virtuoso. He was an accomplished painter. Wherever he traveled,
he set up an elaborate laboratory, presumably for his alchemy work.
He seemed to be a man of great wealth but was not known to have any
bank accounts. (If it was due to his ability to transmute base metals
into gold, he never performed the feat for observers.) – He dined
often with friends because he enjoyed their company, but was rarely
seen to eat food in public. He subsisted, it was said, on a diet of
oatmeal. He prescribed recipes for the removal of facial wrinkles
and for dyeing hair. He loved jewels, and much of his clothing
including his shoes were studded with them. He had perfected a
technique for painting jewels. He claimed to be able to fuse several
small diamonds into one large one. He also said he could make pearls
grow to incredible sizes. He has been linked to several secret
societies, including the Rosicrucians, Freemasons, Society of Asiatic
Brothers, the Knights of Light, the Illuminati and Order of the
Templars.
The
origin of The Count of Saint Germain is somewhat uncertain.
Historians generally place his birth around 1712, but other more
specific facts are few. Depending on what you read, he was the child
of an Italian tax collector, the offspring of Portuguese royalty, the
illegitimate son of a Transylvanian prince, or simply appeared out of
nowhere. The most probable explanation of his origin came from Annie
Besant. She believed that Prince Racozi II of Transylvania was indeed
The Count of Saint Germain’s father. All of Racozi’s children
were to be looked after by the emperor of Austria. However, documents
reveal that one was withdrawn from his care and raised by descendants of the Medici family in Italy. Besant also believes that the Count of
Saint Germain took his name from San Germano, a town where his father
owned estates.
There
is much more information about his adult years. However, this
information does nothing but pile on more mysteries. In fact, many
claim he simply arrived on the scene of France in the 1700s as a full
grown man of 40-50 and that his appearance remained that way for
decades — maybe even centuries to come.
To add
to this oddity, there were also several claims that he did not eat.
He was quite the socialite and sat at the tables of many to discuss
matters, but had never addressed a dish.
While
the Count of Saint Germain never claimed to be older than he
appeared, he never denied it either. This caused much gossip and many
interesting stories of his possible immortality, the three most
popular being: There are those that suggest Count Saint Germain was
a time traveler and could bend time at will. They site as evidence
the appearance of individuals spanning centuries claiming to be the
Count. All of these individuals had no verifiable past, were of
youthful appearance, and kept company with the social elite of their
time. Among the time bending abilities claimed where the abilities
to suspend or halt time and move from one time period to another at
will. It was also said that he stopped time for himself whenever he
was asleep.
Some
assumed he originated from the time of Christ. He was thought to be
among the men that taunted Jesus during the events that led to his
crucifixion, cursed to walk the earth until the Second Coming.
Alternatively, some believe he wasn’t cursed and simply became an
Ascended Master, or godly being sent to earth as an assistant to
humanity.
During
this time, a “science” that dealt with obtaining special powers
and the transmutation of several metals, called Alchemy, become
popular. The Count of Saint Germain showed a deep interest in its
studies and often boasted about his success in creating gems. Some
parts of Alchemy deal with rejuvenation or preservation, so many
concluded that he had produced an elixir of life. Some have mentioned
that he frequently drank a special tea when out in public.
Gossip
of his alleged immortality may have been the primary focus of the
attention he garnered, but his other talents also drew their share of
attention. He was a highly skilled painter, often noted for his
ability to perfectly render gems.
He was
a talented musician, with great skill on the piano and violin. He
even composed a few pieces and worked with the likes of Tchaikovsky.
He was a designer of felt hats, a skilled jeweler, and fluent in many
languages from French to Chinese.
The
Count of Saint Germaine also showed an interest in politics, popping
up at many important points in political history. He worked as spy
for the French court and became a close adviser to Louis XV. While
unsuccessful, he even took part in the negotiation of a peace treaty
between France and Austria. Some paintings suggest that the Count of
Saint Germain may have spent some time as a Russian general, with
Alexis Orloff deeming him as “a man who played an important part in
our revolution.” During the time of Louis XVI, he also spoke with
Marie Antoinette, predicting the fall of the monarchy and the death
of Jean-FrƩdƩric PhƩlypeaux.
Several
burial records confirm that the Count of Saint Germain died on
February 27th 1784. For any ordinary mortal, that would be the end
of the story. But not for Count de Saint-Germain. He would continue
to be seen throughout the 19th century and into the 20th century. In
1785 he was seen in Germany with Anton Mesmer, the pioneer hypnotist.
(Some claim that it was Saint-Germain who gave Mesmer the basic ideas
for hypnotism and personal magnetism.) Official records of
Freemasonry show that they chose Saint-Germain as their
representative for a convention in 1785. After the taking of the
Bastille in the French Revolution in 1789, the Comtesse d’AdhĆ©mar
said she had a lengthy conversation with Count de Saint-Germain. He
allegedly told her of France’s immediate future, as if he knew what
was to come.
In
1821, she wrote: “I have seen Saint-Germain again, each time to my
amazement. I saw him when the queen [Antoinette] was murdered, on the
18th of Brumaire, on the day following the death of the Duke
d’Enghien, in January, 1815, and on the eve of the murder of the
Duke de Berry.” The last time she saw him was in 1820 — and each
time he looked to be a man no older than his mid-40s.
After
1821, Saint-Germain may have taken on another identity. In his
memoirs, Albert Vandam wrote of meeting a man who bore a striking
resemblance to Count de Saint-Germain, but who went by the name of
Major Fraser. Vandam wrote:
“He
called himself Major Fraser, lived alone and never alluded to his
family. Moreover he was lavish with money, though the source of his
fortune remained a mystery to everyone. He possessed a marvelous
knowledge of all the countries in Europe at all periods. His memory
was absolutely incredible and, curiously enough, he often gave his
hearers to understand that he had acquired his learning elsewhere
than from books. Many is the time he has told me, with a strange
smile, that he was certain he had known Nero, had spoken with Dante,
and so on.” Major Fraser disappeared without a trace.
Between
1880 and 1900, Saint-Germain’s name once again became prominent
when members of the Theosophical Society, including famed mystic
Helena Blavatsky, claimed that he was still alive and working toward
the “spiritual development of the West.”
Both
Voltaire and Benjamin Franklin met with Saint Germain in person and collaborated with each other closely. The writer, philosopher, and
historian during the French Enlightenment, Voltaire, left written
proof that he was contacted by Saint Germain, who traveled in a
“Flying Machine.” As the story is told, Count Richard Jiamfre
gave Eugenio Siragusa a strange, handwritten letter from Voltaire. It
was addressed to the legendary Count of St. Germain. The letter has
phrases that fit perfectly with the idea of an alleged ET presence in
human history. The date on the handwritten letter was June 6, 1761.
“Germain,
your long road through time will be illuminated by my friendship for
you – even at the time of your revelations about the middle of the
20th century. Because of time, the talking pictures will not be able
to be stored in memory. May your wonderful flying machines bring you
back to me.”
Voltaire
accompanied his close friend Benjamin Franklin into the Loge des Neuf
Soeurs in Paris, France — a Freemason club. Sir Francis Bacon was a
leader in the Freemason and Rosicrucian movement. It is likely that
many of the founding fathers had deep-rooted Mason/Rosicrucian
agendas. Benjamin Franklin supposedly cavorted with Saint Germain in
France. Multiple scholars believe Saint Germain appeared at the
signing of the Declaration of Independence — and gave a rousing
speech that encouraged everyone to sign. The Masons and Rosicrucians
credit him with inspiring the Founding Fathers to draft the United
States Declaration of Independence and the Constitution — as well
as providing the design of the Great Seal of the United States.
In
a passage from the letter of 6 June 1761 in French, roughly
translated into English, Saint Germain apparently predicted when
Voltaire was going to die.
“I
reply, sir, to your letter you sent me in April, in which you reveal
frightening secrets, among which the most terrible for an old man
like me — the hour of my death. Thank you, Germain. Your long
journey through time will be illuminated by the friendship I have for
you, Until the day your revelations will come true — in the middle
of the twentieth century. The talking pictures are a gift to the time
I have left to live. Your mechanized flying machine could one day
bring you back to me.”
Voltaire’s
reference to “talking pictures” from Saint Germain may indicate
that Germain may have shared advanced technology with Voltaire.
Saint Germain apparently gave Voltaire prophecies that there would be
sightings of “mechanized flying machines” in the “middle of the
twentieth century.” Of course, during the mid-twentieth century, we
have Roswell and other such UFO crashes — now publicly acknowledged
as real by whistleblowers.
In
a fascinating article on Saint Germain,entitled “UFO Secret: The
Friendship Case, Voltaire and Germain,” Voltaire said that Germain
was “a man who knows everything, and who never dies.”
He
was a European courtier, served the French court on some diplomatic
missions, and seemed to deflect questions on his origins by inventing
lively fantasies — to the point where people thought he had lived
several centuries. Multiple people have written that he never seemed
to age. On another occasion, Voltaire called him the ‘Wonderman.’
Germain
apparently had a mysterious manuscript, as did Caligrostro. It uses a
variety of advanced ciphers and codes to conceal its message from
“the profane,” i.e. the general public. The document is called
“The Most Holy Trinosophia.” It was later published by none other
than Manly Palmer Hall, the author of Secret Teachings of All Ages.
Part Five of this enigmatic, encrypted document clearly describes a
UFO ride:
“Scarcely
had I risen to the surface of the earth, when my unseen guide led me
still more swiftly. The velocity with which we sped through space can
be compared with naught but itself. In an instant, I had lost sight
of the plains below. I noticed with astonishment that I had emerged
from the bowels of the earth — far from the country about Naples. A
desert and some triangular masses were the only objects I could see.
Soon, in spite of the trials which I had undergone, a new terror
assailed me. The earth seemed to me only a vague cloud. I had been
lifted to a tremendous height. My invisible guide left me, and I
descended again. For quite a long time, I rolled through space.
Already the earth spread out before my confused vision…. I could
estimate how many minutes would pass until I would be crushed on the
rocks. But quick as thought my guide darts down beside me, takes hold
of me, lifts me up again, and again lets me fall. Finally, he raises
me with him to an immeasurable distance. I saw globes revolve around
me — and earths gravitate at my feet. Suddenly the genius who bore
me touched my eyes — and I swooned. I know not how long I remained
in this condition.”
As
we go on to section 12 of the same document, we find evidence of what
appears to be a modern contactee story of a visit to the interior of
a UFO. This strange story closely matches other modern witness
accounts. Anti-gravity apparently levitates the man — and his
clothing is then transformed.
“The
hall into which I had just entered was perfectly round. It resembled
the interior of a globe, composed of hard and transparent matter, as
crystal — so that the light entered from all sides. Its lower part
rested upon a vast basin filled with red sand. A gentle and equable
warmth reigned in this circular enclosure. With astonishment I gazed
around this crystal globe — when a new phenomenon excited my
admiration. From the floor of the hall ascended a gentle vapor, moist
and saffron yellow. It enveloped me, raised me gently — and within
thirty-six days bore me up to the upper part of the globe. Thereafter
the vapor thinned. Little by little I descended. I finally found
myself again on the floor. My robe had changed its color. [My robe]
had been green when I entered the hall, but now changed to a
brilliant red. A contrary effect had taken place in the sand on which
the globe rested. Gradually, its red color had been transformed into
black. After finishing my ascent, I remained three more days in that
hall.”
Voltaire
published one of the world’s first science fiction stories in 1752,
with a short story entitled Micromegas. It describes ETs from Sirius
and Saturn visiting the Earth. Once they arrive here, they fly around
the globe for thirty-six hours. (Hot-air balloons were not in use as
of 1752. They would not look like flat discs with beams of light
shooting out of them. Now we know what we are looking at - a UFO.)
What is Micromegas about? An extraterrestrial visitation of earth, by
a giant from the star Sirius — accompanied by a smaller human life
form from the planet Saturn. When these ETs arrive at earth, they do
not recognize any intelligent life on Earth at first, and then get
into a philosophical debate. Voltaire may have been closer to Saint
Germain than anyone else of his time. We have written proof of
Voltaire writing to Saint Germain, prizing his “talking pictures,”
his “flying machine,” and his apparent return in the mid-20th
century.
“Your
revelations will come true in the middle of the 20th century.”
We
also have Voltaire unambiguously drawing a Fatima-style flying saucer
to illustrate his book. He wrote other science-fiction stories
throughout his life as well.
Saint
Germain is therefore a human ET who used a flying disc that he
revealed to Voltaire.
Classic
Luciferian occultists like Alice Bailey and Helena Blavatsky had
later worked Saint Germain into their storylines — as well as
various modern channelers. In Alice A. Bailey’s books, Saint
Germain is referred to as the “Master Rakoczi” or the ‘Master
R.’ His title is said to be the “Lord of Civilization,”
telepathically influencing people who are seen by him as being
instrumental in bringing about the new civilization of the Age of
Aquarius. Bailey has said that “sometime after AD 2025,” Jesus,
Master Rakoczi, and the others in the Spiritual Hierarchy (except
Gautama Buddha) would ‘externalize,’ i.e. descend from the
spiritual worlds and live physically on Earth in ashrams surrounded
by their disciples. It is very common for spiritual figures to be
deified and fetishized by both positive and negative groups alike.
Several
contemporary groups in esoteric and New Age traditions honor Saint
Germain as a Christ-like Ascended Master — with paranormal powers,
such as the ability to teleport, levitate, walk through walls, and
influence people telepathically. During his life, he reportedly
removed flaws from precious stones [using telekinesis] and created an
elixir that prevented aging. Saint Germain was ambidextrous and could
compose simultaneously a letter with one hand and poetry with the
other, or two identical pieces of writing with each hand.
To
summarize, Saint Germain first appeared in Venice early in the
century, looking about forty-five years of age, extremely handsome,
with intense eyes and a charming manner. About 1760, Countess von
Georgy met him at the court of Louis XV. Stunned to see the Count
completely unchanged over fifty years, she asked if it were really
he. The Count not only confirmed her guess, but related several
incidents which the two alone would have known. In 1710, Rameau
praised Saint-Germain’s clear and moving pianoforte improvisations.
Prince Ferdinand von Lobkowitz received one of [Germain’s]
compositions. And another, with the Count’s signature, eventually
came into the hands of Tchaikowsky. Two others, dated 1745 and 1760,
are preserved in the British Museum. Saint-Germain played the violin
equally [as] well [as the piano], being favorably compared with
Paganini by those who had heard both. Saint-Germain’s knowledge of
languages was phenomenal. He spoke French, English, German, Italian,
Spanish and Portuguese fluently, and without an accent. Scholars were
surprised by his facility in Greek and Latin as well as Sanskrit,
Chinese and Arabic, which were not yet well taught in French
colleges…. He admitted that he could grow pearls [and gemstones]
artificially, and once removed a flaw from a large diamond owned by
Louis XV. Casanova witnessed a silver sixty-centime coin taken from
his own pocket transmuted into pure gold — in about two minutes.
When Casanova voiced doubts about what he had seen, Saint-Germain
simply replied, “People who question my Art do not merit my
attention,” and never saw Casanova again. Two months later,
Casanova gave the coin to Field Marshall Keith in Berlin. Besides his
capacity to perfect metals, Saint-Germain’s own unchanging age and
unique eating habits — no one ever saw him eat — suggest that he
had in his possession the elixir vitae - the so-called “Fountain of
Youth. Since others claim to have received direct benefit, including
renewed stamina and restored health, enhanced memory and prolonged
life from its derivatives, it appears that Saint-Germain possessed
knowledge of Azoth, which in its three forms constitutes the
Philosopher’s Stone, the power of projection and the elixir of
life.
So
who was Count Saint-Germain? Some thought him a charlatan, while
others considered him a visionary who continues to walk among us. The
fascinating thing about the Count of Saint Germain is that his story
never really dies. Who, or what, he truly was may never be known.
