Stargate (often stylized in all caps) is a military science fiction media franchisebased on the film directed by Roland Emmerich, which he co-wrote with producer Dean Devlin. The franchise is based on the idea of an alien Einstein–Rosen bridgedevice (the Stargate) that enables nearly instantaneous travel across the cosmos. The franchise began with the film Stargate, released on October 28, 1994, by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Carolco, which grossed US$197 million worldwide.^[1][2] In 1997, Brad Wright and Jonathan Glassner created a television series titled Stargate SG-1as a sequel to the film. This show was joined by Stargate Atlantis in 2004, Stargate Universe in 2009, and a prequel web series, Stargate Origins, in 2018. Also consistent with the same story are a variety of books, video games and comic books, as well as the direct-to-DVD movies Stargate: Children of the Gods, Stargate: The Ark of Truth, and Stargate: Continuum, which concluded the first television show after 10 seasons.

In 2011, Stargate Universe, the last Stargate program on television ended its run. Brad Wright announced that there were no more plans to continue the same story in further productions.^[3] In 2016, comic publisher American Mythology acquired the rights to publish new Stargate Atlantis stories set within the established franchise canon. This was expanded in 2017 to include new Stargate Universe comics as well, resolving the cliffhanger that ended the show.^[4][5] The predominant story arc thus ran for more than 15 years, including 18 seasons (364 episodes) of programming, and 22 comic book issues as of January 2020. However, a variety of other media either ignore this main continuity or resets it, while maintaining essential elements that define the franchise (mainly, the inclusion of a Stargate device). These include the 2002 animated series Stargate Infinity.

In 2017, the franchise was revived with the announcement of a new prequel web series, Stargate Origins.^[6] Episodes premiered on a central “fan hub” for the franchise called Stargate Command,^[7] with a season of ten 10-minute episodes.

In April 2022, all series in the franchise premiered on a dedicated channel on the streaming service Pluto TV.^[8]

Premise[edit]

An activated Stargate, the central object of the Stargateuniverse, here depicted in the SG-1 television series.

Stargate productions center on the premise of a “Stargate“, a ring-shaped portal that enables rapid transportation via wormhole to other stargates that are located cosmic distances away. The story begins when one such device is discovered on Earth. The 1994 film and subsequent television series depict how the device is kept under the control of the United States government, who use it to conduct interplanetary missions by dialing the thousands of stargates located in the galaxy, which are the legacy of an ancient civilization. The expeditions originally had the goal of acquiring extremely rare resources, new technology and detecting threats; but often face scientific and humanitarian issues and the dilemmas of interacting with different societies. Finally, they resulted in a unified United Nation-coalition to better support the constant need to continue the program to defend Earth from invading aliens.

Combined with the notion that the Stargate is a secret, Stargate productions are notable for presenting no contradiction with reality, being set in the present day on an otherwise normal Earth, and being dominated by human interaction in the galaxy. In the story of the 1994 film, this is explained as being the result of forced deportations by aliens, with the suggestion that most ancient mythologies are the result of aliens posing as gods in the distant past (as in unproven ancient astronauts).

The longest-running series, Stargate SG-1, presents the Milky Way galaxy as a failed state in which Goa’uld System Lords war against each other. Ra had been the Supreme System Lord and his death (which occurred in the film) undermined the existing social structure of the System Lords. Humans have been deported throughout the galaxy from Earth by the Goa’uld, who used superior technology to pose as gods. These people are kept in poverty, ignorance, and slavery, and the Goa’uld also seem to believe the rulers’ propaganda. The US Stargate Command is represented as having a higher level of civilization and a lower level of technology during conflicts, rarely preventing the Goa’uld from dominating planets.

Franchise releases[edit]

Due to multiple developers working separately and independently on the franchise over the years, the various Stargate productions are not entirely consistent with each other; and while no set of works forms an official canon, the largest following exists for the three live-action series.^[9] Through the work of various authors and developers, at least six separate story cycles can be discerned, some of which are continuations of the other ones (either endorsed or unendorsed by their predecessor).

Theatrical films[edit]

Stargate[edit]

Main article: Stargate (film)

In 1994, the military science fiction feature film Stargate was released, directed by Roland Emmerich and co-written by Emmerich and Dean Devlin. The film lays the foundation for all the Stargate productions that come after it, by explaining the notion, function, and history of the Stargate.

The film begins with the unearthing of the Stargate in Giza in 1928. In a present day(1994) military base in Creek Mountain, Colorado, discredited Egyptologist Daniel Jackson (James Spader) enables use of the Stargate when he recognizes that symbols on the cover stones are asterisms in a three dimensional coordinate system. A probe sent through the first Stargate connection revealed survivable conditions on the planet Abydos (which was believed to be billions of light-years away, in the Kaliam Galaxy on the far side of the known universe). A team led by Colonel Jack O’Neil (Kurt Russell) is then ordered to step through the Stargate and identify potential military threats on the other side. Jackson accompanies them to operate the other Stargate with his knowledge of the coordinate system.

The team discovers a slave civilization serving an alien who is posing as the Egyptian god Ra (Jaye Davidson). Ra and his minions have taken human form, dominating the slaves with brute force. With the help of the locals, O’Neil’s team is eventually able to instigate a slave rebellion, overwhelming Ra’s forces. Ra escapes in his mothership, but O’Neil is able to teleport a nuclear warhead on-board Ra’s ship in orbit and detonate it. With Ra dead, the civilization can live in peace; O’Neil and his team return home through the Stargate, but Daniel Jackson stays on the planet with a young local woman named Sha’uri.

Other releases and possible future development [edit]

In 1997, MGM Animation was reportedly in development on an animated direct-to-video entry in the franchise titled Stargate: The Young Explorers, however the project never passed the development stage.^[26]

After Bill McCay had written a series of five novels continuing the story the original creators had envisioned, and despite the success of the Stargate television series, Dean Devlin said in 2006 that “he has struck a production deal with MGM and is developing the long-delayed sequel feature films that will pick up the story from the 1994 original.”^[27] According to Devlin, two movie sequels would have picked up the story from the 1994 original, but not the mythology of the SG-1 and Atlantis series, with the original stars Kurt Russell and James Spader. Devlin regretted giving MGM control over the franchise.^[27] The first movie already tapped into Egyptian mythology; the second one would have moved into other mythologies; and the third would tie all the mythologies together.^[28] Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantisproducer Brad Wright said in 2002 that “Devlin can wish to do a sequel to Stargateall he wants. MGM owns the rights, and I doubt very much that they’ll ask him to do it. He knows better.”^[29]

Plans for producing two sequels of the original film were announced by the original film’s creator Dean Devlin at the 2006 San Diego Comic-Con. He was in talks with MGM to produce four films and he wanted two of them to be the final two films in his envisioned Stargate trilogy. In an interview with Sci Fi Wire, Devlin said that, should the sequels be made, he hoped to enlist Kurt Russell and James Spader. Both Russell and Spader expressed interest, Devlin revealed. “They’ve always said they wanted to do it. The irony is actually because it was 12 years ago that we made Stargate, [and] part two was actually supposed to take place about 12 years later. We were just going to kind of age them up as actors. So it actually works out really nicely.” These sequels would bypass the 12 years of mythology created by SG-1 and Atlantis if they are ever produced.^[27]

Dean Devlin spoke out again on July 4, 2011, saying he had not given up on the idea of sequels to his 1994 feature film. He talked about the idea again in a new interview with Collider. Devlin actually wrote it as a trilogy of movies, but was never able to do parts two and three. His hope was, as the series started to wind down, that perhaps it would be time to actually get to do parts two and three.

Devlin has said “I think it’ll change a little bit from our original idea since so many years have passed. …We wanted to explore the idea of how the Stargates were built originally, and where else in the universe they exist, and why they exist – and where else they exist on Earth. We had really planned out, as a trilogy of films, to allow this mythology to grow bigger and bigger.”^[30] It was announced that MGM and Warner Bros. are partnering with both Emmerich and Devlin for a reboot of Stargate as a trilogy with Emmerich directing and Devlin producing.^[31] On November 17, 2016, Devlin told Empire Online that the plans to make a reboot of a potential new series are stalled.^[32]

Television[edit]

SG-1[edit]

Main article: Stargate SG-1

The original starring cast of Stargate SG-1.

In 1997, Jonathan Glassner and Brad Wright co-developed Stargate SG-1, a television series intended to continue the story laid down by the original film. Although new actors were cast, several roles from the film were reprised, including the main characters Daniel Jackson and Jack O’Neill (which was re-spelled to include an extra “L”). The Stargate Command setting was transferred from a fictional military facility located in Creek Mountain, to the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. Other variations and differences between the original film and SG-1mostly concern the location of the planet Abydos, the alien Ra, the race of Ra’s underlings (Jaffa), and Stargate travel.^[33][34]

The series debuted on Showtime on July 27, 1997, and moved to the Sci-Fi Channelafter its fifth season.^[35] It starred Richard Dean Anderson (as O’Neill) and Michael Shanks (as Jackson), alongside Amanda Tapping, Christopher Judge and Don S. Davis respectively playing the new characters Samantha Carter, Teal’c and George Hammond. The cast remained fairly regular for most of SG-1′s run, but experienced some changes. Michael Shanks left the show at the end of Season 5 and was replaced by Corin Nemec as Jonas Quinn. Shanks returned at the beginning of Season 7 and Nemec was written out. At the end of Season 7 Davis left the show and Anderson filled the gap he left in the story. Season 9 saw the departure of Anderson, but added new regulars Beau Bridges and Ben Browder. After a debut episode in Season 8, followed by appearances in eight episodes of Season 9, Claudia Black‘s popular reception earned her a position in the regular cast in Season 10.^[36]

MGM put an average of $1,400,000 into each episode of the show, and regarded it as one of its most important franchises.^[37] SG-1 was taken off air in 2007; however, two direct-to-DVD movies entitled The Ark of Truth and Stargate Continuum were made to tie up loose ends.

In June 2009, “Children of the Gods“, Stargate SG-1‘s pilot episode, was re-cut into a Stargate SG-1 direct-to-DVD movie with brand new visual effects and scenes not previously included in the television version.^[38]

Atlantis[edit]

Main article: Stargate Atlantis

The Stargate Atlantis series follows the adventures of the “Atlantis expedition”, a combination of military forces and civilian scientists who travel to the Pegasus Galaxy in search of the Lost City of Atlantis, left behind by the most powerful race known to ever have lived, referred to as the Ancients, also known as Lanteans and Alterans. The finding of the city had been a plot arc for most of SG-1′s Season 7, and the Ancients themselves had been a long-running facet of the SG-1 setting. Arriving at the city, the expedition discovers Atlantis rests at the bottom of an ocean, protected by shields keeping the city habitable. As the Atlantis expedition team explores the myriad corridors and equipment, they quickly drain the already nearly depleted power source (known as a ZPM) allowing the shields to hold and Atlantis to remain watertight. Through an emergency default program, Atlantis detects this sudden power drop and activates a failsafe, causing the city to surface and appear as an island in the middle of an ocean.

Using small ships discovered in the city, team members fly and discover the mainland, where they explore, meet the indigenous population, and learn that the Pegasus galaxy is dominated by a terrible enemy known as the “Wraith“. Although first encountered whilst in a long-term hibernation state, the expedition unintentionally and prematurely wakes the Wraith, alerting them to the reemergence of Atlantis, a new race of humans, and a potential new feeding ground: The Milky Way galaxy. Despite being vastly outnumbered, the team must defend and protect the city, the locals, and the entire expedition.

Stargate Atlantis was a spin-off television series from Stargate SG-1. A new feature film was originally intended to transition the two series after the sixth season of SG-1. Later, SG-1 was renewed for a seventh season, and the feature film was then planned to transition that season. Finally, when SG-1 was renewed for an eighth season, the intended film instead became the two-part season finale episode “Lost City“, and the setting of Stargate Atlantis was moved to the Pegasus galaxy.^[39] This allowed the two shows to exist side-by-side within the same fictional universe, and later the two shows even become interconnected. Atlantis was developed by most of the same people and in the same studios as SG-1.

Atlantis debuted on the Sci-Fi Channel on July 16, 2004, starring Joe Flanigan and Torri Higginson in the lead roles, with Rainbow Sun Francks, David Hewlett, and Rachel Luttrell alongside. Hewlett and Higginson’s characters had previously appeared in SG-1 (though Higginson inherited the role from actress Jessica Steen). In Atlantis’ second season, Paul McGillion and Jason Momoa (replacing Francks) were added as regulars. At the end of the third season, Higginson and McGillion were removed as regulars, both serving recurring roles in the 4th season. Season 4 brought in Amanda Tapping, reprising her role as Samantha Carter from SG-1, and Jewel Staite in a recurring role. Tapping left the show for Season 5 to concentrate on Sanctuary, and was replaced by Robert Picardo, who reprised his role as Richard Woolsey from both SG-1 and Atlantis. However, in late summer 2008 it was announced that SciFi would not renew Atlantis. The final episode aired on January 9, 2009.

Universe[edit]

Main article: Stargate Universe

The main cast of Universe. The series has a much larger main cast than previous Stargate shows.

Stargate Universe is the third live-action Stargate series, and premiered on October 2, 2009. The series was pitched to the Sci Fi Channel in the fall of 2007, just before the writer’s strike – which put a hold on the project. “The pitch was received very well,” according to Stargate Atlantis co-creator Brad Wright. Sci Fi Channel ordered Universe after announcing the cancellation of Stargate Atlantis. Syfy announced on December 16, 2010, that they would not pick the show up for a third season.^[40] The final episode aired May 9, 2011.

After the events of Stargate Atlantis, research into the Stargate’s 9th and final chevron^[41] leads to an expedition being stranded several billion light years from earth on board an Ancient ship called Destiny which has been traveling through the universe unmanned for millions of years. The show follows the crew as they struggle to survive on board Destiny with no apparent way home. The show was intended to have a darker tone than its predecessors and delve more into the humanity of the characters and their relationships with each other.

The Ark of Truth, Continuum & Children of the Gods[edit]

Main articles: Stargate: The Ark of Truth and Stargate: Continuum

Stargate: The Ark of Truth is a direct-to-DVD movie written and directed by Robert C. Cooper. The film is the conclusion of Stargate SG-1‘s Ori arc, and picks up after the SG-1 series finale, but takes place before the fourth season of Stargate Atlantis. The Ark of Truth was released as a Region 1 DVD release on March 11, 2008. Sky Onehas broadcast the film on March 24, 2008, to be followed by the Region 2 DVD release on April 28, 2008, with the Region 4 DVD release on April 9, 2008.^[42]

Stargate: Continuum is a direct-to-DVD movie written by Brad Wright and directed by Martin Wood. Some scenes for this movie were already shot at the end of March 2007, but the original start date was set for May 22 at Vancouver’s Bridge Studios. The production budget was $7 million.^[43] The movie was released on DVD and Blu-ray Disc on July 29, 2008. The Region 4 DVD was released on August 6, 2008 with the Region 2 DVD released on August 18, 2008;^[44] followed by possible TV broadcasts.^[45] The film is a time-travel adventure and is the second sequel to Stargate SG-1, after Stargate: The Ark of Truth.

Stargate: Children of the Gods is a direct-to-DVD movie written by Jonathan Glassner and Brad Wright and directed by Mario Azzopardi. The Stargate SG-1 pilot episode was re-cut as a third Stargate SG-1 direct-to-DVD special and released on July 21, 2009 by MGM Home Entertainment in 16:9 widescreen format. A few months before its release, executive producer Brad Wright announced it would be enhanced with brand new visual effects and scenes not previously included in the television version. The beginning was to be slightly altered, a new scene added, and the nudity scene taken out to make this episode suitable for children, with the final movie roughly seven minutes shorter than the original episode.

Post-Universe cancellation[edit]

In April 2009, MGM confirmed a third SG-1 film that Brad Wright had first announced in May 2008.^[46][47] Wright was set to co-write the film with former Stargate Atlantisexecutive producer Carl Binder,^[48] with Martin Wood serving as director.^[49]According to Wright, the film would center on the Jack O’Neill character and reunite as many of the SG-1 cast as possible, depending on the cost of the film and actor availability.^[46] Michael Shanks (Daniel Jackson) had confirmed his and Richard Dean Anderson’s participation.^[50] Amanda Tapping confirmed her appearance in the third SG-1 film and the first Atlantis movie.^[51] According to Wright, the character of Vala Mal Doran would not appear in this film.^[49] The working title for the film, Stargate: Revolution was revealed by Joseph Mallozzi in his blog.^[52]

According to Sci-Fi and Joseph Mallozzi, a Stargate Atlantis two-hour direct-to-DVDmovie was given the go ahead after the series was cancelled at the end of its fifth season. More movies were expected to follow in the Atlantis series if the first movie was successful.^[53] The rumored working title for the film was Stargate Extinction. By May 2009 the script for the film was finished.^[54]

On April 17, 2011, Stargate writer and executive producer Brad Wright announced that the SGU movie is not going to happen. He also confirmed that the proposed Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis movies have been permanently shelved, along with another movie idea he had been trying to get a greenlight on that would have involved cast members of all three series. Still, Wright did not rule out future Stargatefilms, saying; “It’s a franchise. Stargate is not over. Somebody smart from MGM is going to figure it out, and something will happen.”^[3]

In May 2014, MGM announced a re-imagined version of the original 1994 film to be produced as a trilogy with Warner Bros. Pictures. Emmerich will direct and Devlin will produce. This set of two sequel films to the original Stargate starring Kurt Russell and James Spader will take a dramatically different course than the SG-1 and Atlantis universe created in the following 15 years.^[55] On November 17, 2016, Devlin told Empire Online that the plans to make a reboot and potential new series are stalled.^[32]

Stargate Origins[edit]

Main article: Stargate Origins

Logo of Stargate Origins

In July 2017, a web series called Stargate Origins was announced at a San Diego Comic Con Panel celebrating the franchise’s 20th anniversary. It focuses on the character of Catherine Langford and is a prequel both to the television continuity and to the original feature film. The shooting began in August 2017 and series premiered online at the Stargate Command website on February 15, 2018.^[6][56][57]

The cast includes Ellie Gall as the young Catherine Langford,^[58] Connor Trinneer as Catherine’s father, Professor Paul Langford,^[59] Aylam Orian as Dr. Wilhelm Brücke, a high-ranking Nazi officer,^[60][59] Philip Alexander as Captain James Beal, British officer stationed in Egypt.,^[61] and Shvan Aladdin as Wasif, a native Egyptian and a lieutenant in the British army.^[61]

Infinity[edit]

Main article: Stargate Infinity

Stargate Infinity is an American animated science fiction television series created by Eric Lewald and Michael Maliani as a spin-off from its sister show, Stargate SG-1. The story arc in Infinity is set 30 years into the future and follows Gus Bonner and his team. Bonner’s team was created after he was framed for a crime he did not commit. He escaped from Stargate Command (SGC) after the hostile alien race Tlak’kahn attacked the SGC to find the chrysalis. Together with his team he escapes through the Stargate with the chrysalis. From that point forward they go from planet to planet until they find the evidence to clear their names while learning about the unique cultures in the galaxy, so that they can one day return to Earth.^[62] The story arc was never resolved because of low viewership ratings and the show was cancelled in 2003.

Stargate Infinity premiered in September 2002 as part of 4Kids Entertainment’s FOX BOX Saturday morning line-up on FOX and went off the air in June 2003. Due to its lack of popularity the show is almost completely unrecognized. The series was cancelled before any of its story arcs could be resolved. The show was of low budget, which was constantly noted by the media.^[63][64] DIC Entertainment released a 4-episode DVD on October 7, 2003 in Region 1. MGM Home Entertainmentreleased a five disc season box set on August 13, 2007 in Region 2.^[63] Shout! Factory, a company known for releasing cult animated series, acquired the rights to the show and released the entire series to DVD on May 13, 2008 in Region 1.^[64] As of 2009, there is yet to come a release of Stargate Infinity package in Region 4, namely Oceania and Latin America.^[65]

The writers and producers of Stargate SG-1, Stargate Atlantis and Stargate Universeand the main canon of the Stargate franchise were not involved with Infinity, and neither MGM, the production teams nor the fans of Stargate consider Infinity to be an official part of the Stargate universe. According to Stargate SG-1 co-creator Brad Wright, the animated series should not be considered official Stargate canon. Commenting on it, he stated, “I don’t have a problem with it. I’m just not involved.”^[66]

Possible fourth Stargate television series[edit]

In September 2018, it was reported that SG-1, Atlantis and Universe showrunner Brad Wright had been approached by MGM about continuing the franchise.^[67] The following year, SG-1 stars Amanda Tapping and Richard Dean Anderson further confirmed that they’d spoken to Wright and expressed their own interest in returning to the franchise in some capacity.^[68] In January 2019, Wright elaborated that his conversations with MGM pertained to continuing the television franchise in a way that fully acknowledged the “several hundred hours of show that’s already out there” and not simply honouring it.^[69][70][71] In July 2020, SG-1, Atlantis and Universewriter-producer Joseph Mallozzi teased Wright’s project, commenting that “we’ve never been closer to a fourth Stargate series.” This continued in September 2020, when it was reported that whilst not currently involved in writing, Mallozzi had spoken to Wright about the development, confirming it to be a fourth television series which would continue on from where SG-1, Atlantis and Universe left off and include characters from those shows.^[72][73]

On November 21, 2020, Brad Wright confirmed that he was developing a television series of Stargate with MGM and that it would be a continuation, not a reboot. He also confirmed that whilst things were progressing, the industry shutdown during the coronavirus pandemic was slowing aspects of the development.^[74][75] In a series of podcasts in March and May 2021, Wright continued to offer small updates on the project, including that his script features the SG-1 characters of Daniel Jackson, Cameron Mitchell, Samantha Carter and Jack O’Neill, with the hope that Michael Shanks, Ben Browder and Amanda Tapping all return in some capacity to their respective roles.^[76][77][78] Wright also expressed that if the series does go ahead, he would want Tapping to direct, with it being clarified by Tapping that the series was not in active production, but still being worked on by Wright.^[79][80]

Reception[edit]

Main articles: Stargate fandom, List of awards and nominations received by Stargate SG-1, List of awards and nominations received by Stargate Atlantis, and List of awards and nominations received by Stargate Universe

Stargate took in $16.7 million on its opening weekend and $196.6 million overall,^[81]and received mixed reactions from critics; while it was panned by some critics such as Roger Ebert,^[82] several positive reviews counterbalanced this leading to a score of 46% on Rotten Tomatoes.^[83] Although the film was originally intended as the first of a trilogy,^[27] Emmerich and Devlin ultimately moved on to produce Independence Day, and it was not until 2006 that Devlin showed renewed interest in developing sequels.^[84] In the intervening time, copyright-holder MGM succeeded the film with the television series Stargate SG-1 without the input of Emmerich and Devlin.

Fans (called “Gaters”) posing as SG teams at Dragon Con in 2008

Stargate SG-1 has won the Saturn Awardfor Best Syndicated Television Series on numerous occasions, and its cast has won similar awards for acting.^[85] More recently it has received acclaim for its visual effects, which increased in quality and realism as the show gained a larger budget.^[86] On August 21, 2006, the Sci Fi Channelannounced that it would not be renewing Stargate SG-1 for an eleventh season after a series of poor performances in the Nielsen ratings.^[87] Many fans were enraged at the news, even creating websites in reaction to exhibit their commitment to the series.^[88] Spokesmen for the production have said all options for the continuation of SG-1 are being considered, including complete digital broadcasting.^[89] Executive producer Robert C. Cooper told the fansite GateWorld exclusively that he was working to continue SG-1.^[90] Currently, no network or company has ordered new episodes of SG-1, so the show is on hold until a new buyer can be found. However, SciFi has attempted to block other networks from taking up the show, citing its original exclusive contract with MGM.^[91] Atlantis proved to be as successful as SG-1, with Nielsen ratings and viewership. The Stargate franchise in 2009 won a Constellation Award in the category of Outstanding Canadian Contribution to Science Fiction Film or Television in 2008.^[92]

The average viewership to Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis was around ten million a week worldwide. According to Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis co-creator Brad Wright, the show is popular in Great Britain, Germany, France and Australia, but with a steadily declining viewership in homeland Canada. About thirty million Stargate DVDs were sold worldwide by 2006.^[93]

The DVD release of Stargate: The Ark of Truth in the US earned MGM/Fox $1.59 million in rentals in the first week after the release, and another $1.38 million in rentals in the second week. In its third week it earned US$1.19 million in rentals totaling $4.16 million. The DVD has also earned $9 million in sales.^[11] Stargate: Continuum would go on to gross over $8 million United States dollars in the United States.^[12] The film sparked mostly positive reviews with movie critics.^[94][95][96] A third Stargate SG-1 movie was planned to follow Continuum, but the third movie was put on hold with any other future Stargate movies; the film would have centered around the character of Jack O’Neill.^[97]

In 2010 Stargate was estimated to have injected $1 billion in to the economy of British Columbia.^[98]

Lawsuit[edit]

In 1996, Omar Zuhdi, a Shawnee high school teacher, was able to get a court date to proceed in a trial against the makers and originators of the original movie, claiming they had stolen the plot and story of his 1984 script Egyptscape, as the basis of the film Stargate.^[99] A judge granted a motion by both parties to have the case dismissed.^[100]

Literature[edit]

Main articles: Stargate literature, List of Stargate comics, and List of Stargate audiobooks

There are three series of novels based on the Stargate franchise, one based on the original Stargate film and two based in the Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantistelevision shows. A series of books written by Bill McCay, published from 1995 to 1999, were unofficial sequels to the film.^[101] These were produced by consulting the original notes made by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich, in an attempt to envision where the film “would have gone”. Neither party has commented on whether McCay’s interpretation was correct. Despite attempting to remain close to the original vision, the subsequent television series Stargate SG-1 (which began under an entirely independent development) developed the story along different lines, making no attempt to reconcile the plot lines of the books. This marked the first major branching of the franchise.

From 1999 to 2001, ROC published four novels based in Stargate SG-1 written by Ashley McConnell.^[102] In 2004, UK-based Fandemonium Press started a new series of licensed tie-in novels based on Stargate SG-1. Due to the conflict with ROC’s license, these books were available in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa and the UK, but not in the US. Fandemonium books became available in the US in 2006. The official Stargate Magazine, produced by Titan Publishing, began publishing short stories written by Fandemonium authors in their 8th issue. The stories alternate between SG-1 and Atlantis.^[103]

A series of comic books, based on Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis, began to be published by Avatar Press in 2003. Five have been published to date, with stories by James Anthony and artwork by Jorge Correa.^[104] In February 2008 it was announced that Big Finish Productions would release officially licensed audiobooksfeaturing members of the cast reading new stories. The first two stories, available on CD and digital download, are Gift of the Gods read by Michael Shanks and A Necessary Evil read by Torri Higginson.^[105]

RelatedHow could there be Stargates across the Galaxy unless someone brought the Stargate there by ship first?

They could be built where they were installed. And no doubt some of them were.

What I am curious about is why anyone thinks this is somehow an issue? The Ancients who built the stargate network had FTL ships, so taking gates and delivering them where desired was no big deal.

The Ancients didn’t rely on stargates as their only means of interstellar travel. It was just the fastest and most convenient.

First off, the stargates don’t really exist. I believe there were two fictional ones on Earth, the first found in Egypt and the other in Antarctica. But there were a lot more than 12 identified during the course of of the various Stargate shows and movies. Over the course of the 213 episodes of the original show a good guess would be that at least half of the episodes involved going to a new gate address so that would mean over 100. The Atlantis spinoff had 99 episodes so maybe another 30 plus, all in a different galaxy. Stargate: Universe’s 40 episode probably added another 30 or so since the… (more)

I believe he mostly lived on the base. He tried having his own apartment once in an episode that was called Affinity if I recall correctly.

But that sort of ended in disaster because he was trying to help out a neighbor who had an abusive boyfriend. The boyfriend ends up dead and Teal’c is suspected.

The Stargate (assuming you’re referring to the transportation device from the TV film and TV shows) is fictional, although it is very loosely based on a scientific concept known as a Wormhole.

Wormholes, also called Einsten-Rosen Bridges are proposed phenomena linking two distant points in Spacetime. While they are theoretical possible (as per General Relativity), there’s no evidence they actually exist.

From a Sci-Fi perspective, the idea of a Stargate is compelling, because it allows the show to explore entirely new worlds every episode, without the pain of having to travel there conventionall… (more)

I thought about answering this before, but I think Ryan McClintick summed it all up pretty well. The SGC really had the gates figured out pretty well as the seasons progressed.

As was mentioned in the other answer and my comment they could do a number of things: hack gates, update gates firmware, shutdown gates, time travel, link gates together with macros, jump wormholes from one gate to another, destroy targets on the other side, un-bury gates, remove gates from the rest of the network…

10 Ancient Sites That Might Be Stargates, Portals And Wormholes

Many ancient cultures speak of portals to other worlds and gateways to star systems where their “creators” reside. Conventional wisdom tells us these tales are merely myths and legends. However, recent declassified FBI files have stated that our Earth has been visited by beings from other dimensions and planets. NASA has announced that “portals” do indeed appear to be hidden within the Earth’s magnetic field, making some wonder if the legends of stargates, portals and wormholes may have some degree of truth to them.

10Gate Of The Gods, Hayu Marca, Peru

Ancient Aliens: Peru’s Gate of the Gods | History

In 1996, it was discovered by Jose Luis Delgado Mamani while he was trying to learn the layout of the area for a job he had recently taken as a tour guide. The “Gate of the Gods” at Hayu Marca in Peru is said by native tribes to have once acted as a “gateway to the land of the Gods.” Mamani even claims that he had dreams of the doorway for years before he had accidentally found it. In his dream, Mamani stated that the pathway leading to the doorway was made of pink marble, and had also witnessed a smaller door that was open with a “brilliant blue light coming from what looked like a shimmering tunnel.”

The “doorway” is actually two doorways, almost in a “T” shape. The larger doorway measures seven meters wide and seven meters high (22 ft by 22 ft) while the smaller one stands two meters high (6.5 ft) in the middle of the base. Legends state that the larger door is for the gods, themselves. The smaller door is for mortals to pass through, and some heroic mortals did, becoming immortal themselves to live among the gods.

One legend of a mortal passing through the doorway appears to lend a little credibility to Mamani’s alleged dream. The story says that when Spanish explorers arrived in Peru in the 16th century, looting Inca riches as they went, an Incan priest named Amaru Maru fled his temple with a valuable golden disk—“The Key of the Gods of the Seven Rays.” Amaru Maru found the doorway and saw it was guarded by Shaman priests. He presented to them the golden disk, and following a ritual performed by the priests, the smaller doorway opened. Behind it was a tunnel that shone with great blue light. Amaru Maru passed into the doorway, left the disk with the Shaman priests, and vanished from Earth to the land of the gods.

Interestingly, investigators did discover a small, round, indention in the rock on the right hand column of the smaller doorway. The examinations led them to believe that should a disk shaped object be “inserted” into the indention, it would be held in place by the surrounding rock.

9Abu Ghurab, Egypt, The Place Of The Gods

Photo credit: Roland Unger

The Abu Sir Pyramids, site of Abu Ghurab, has claimed to be one of the oldest sites on the planet. Within Abu Ghurab, lies an ancient platform made of alabaster (Egyptian crystal) and is said to be in tune with the “vibration” of Earth. It can also “open the senses” in order for a person to communicate and “be one” with higher, sacred energies of the Universe. Essentially, it is a stargate and the sacred energies were the Neters (gods).

Interestingly, legends of their communication and way of travel between their world and ours almost mirrors the legends of the Cherokee Native Americans. The Cherokee tell of how “thought beings”—who are formless—would travel on a “wave of sound” from their home in the Pleiades Star System to Earth.

As the legends of Abu Ghurab being a stargate, there are also signs of what some would perceive to be advanced technology having been used to create the site. One example is the perfectly precise circular markings that have been drilled into the alabaster.

8Ancient Stone Arrangement In Lake Michigan

In 2007, while searching for the remains of shipwrecks, scientists discovered a stone structure 12 meters (40 ft) below the surface of Lake Michigan. Thought to be 9,000 years old, the structure has been dubbed Michigan’s equivalent of Stonehenge. The discovery was made by professor of underwater archaeology at Northwestern Michigan University, Mark Holley, and his colleague, Brian Abbott. One thing of particular interest was a carving on one of the stones of a mastodon—which is believed to have become extinct 10,000 years ago—a possible indication of the structure’s age.

The location of the site has been kept secret, at least for now. This is part of an agreement with the local Native American tribes who wish to keep the amount of visitors to a minimum. While a lot of mainstream scientists are skeptical about the age of the site, and if it even has any relevance, many believe that it is the remains of a stargate or wormhole. The site has also claimed several bizarre disappearances and gained the title of “The Michigan Triangle.”

In 1891, a schooner named the Thomas Hume vanished into thin air along with all seven of it’s crew while sailing on the lake. In 1921, the 11 people who were aboard the Rosa Belle disappeared without a trace, but their boat was found floating lifelessly in the water. In 1937, while on board the O.M. McFarland as it made its way along Lake Michigan, Captain Donner retired to his quarters to get some much needed rest after a long shift on deck. Three hours later, the second mate went to wake his captain. Finding the door locked from the inside, and with no response from the captain, he eventually broke down the door to the room. With the captain’s quarters empty and with all the windows locked shut, Captain Donner had simply vanished.

7Stonehenge, Wiltshire, England

One of the most well-known structures on the planet, if only by name, is the ancient rock formation known as Stonehenge. It is also one of the most contested and debated sites in history, both as to when it was built and to what its true purpose might have been. Mainstream historians claim that the famous arrangement was built around 5,000 years ago, partly from bluestones that were quarried from a site 386 kilometers (240 mi) away. To some though, this notion is absurd. 

Geologist Brian John states that there been no evidence for this claim and no evidence that the alleged quarry even existed. It is said that when the first settlements were built in the area, 5,000 years ago, Stonehenge was already there and fully built. The ancient site is said to sit where 14 ley lines converge and some feel, along with other similar ancient sites, this essentially makes it an energy portal or stargate. 

At least one incident in recent history may support this seemingly crazy theory. In August 1971, a group of hippies apparently disappeared at Stonehenge while trying to tap into the “vibrations” of the site.At around 2 o’clock in the morning, without any warning, lightning bolts suddenly struck and a severe storm was unleashed onto the area. According to the story, a policeman who happened to be on duty and in the area, recalls seeing a “blue light” coming from the stones – a local farmer also stated he saw this. Screams could be heard from the area. By the time the policeman had made his way to the site, all that remained was the odd tent peg from the reveler’s tents and the damp remains of a campfire.

6The Ancient Sumerian Stargate At The Euphrates River

Photo credit: Andres Rueda

There is a famous Sumerian seal that shows a Sumerian god appearing from a portal of his world into ours. The god appears to be on a staircase that is moving away from the person viewing the seal. On each side of the emerging god, there are strange shimmering columns of water. Another Sumerian artifact that claims to show evidence of stargates is that of Ninurta. Ninurta not only appears to be wearing a modern day wristwatch, but is also using his finger to press what appears to be a button on the wall of the gateway he is standing in.

Author Elizabeth Vegh has written several books on the ancient Sumerian gods and kings and their alleged use of stargates in ancient times. One of her main conclusions is that there is a stargate in the Euphrates River, and has been buried and lost under the ruins of the Mesopotamian city of Eridu for thousands of years. Vegh also states that the biblical verse in Chapter 9 of the Book of Revelations speaks of this stargate. The verse reads, “(1)Then the fifth angel sounded his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from heaven to earth, and it was given the key to the pit of the abyss. (2)The star opened the pit of the abyss, and smoke rose out of it like the smoke of a great furnace, and the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke from the pit. (3)And out of the smoke, locusts descended on the earth . . . ”

Although most scholars would agree that the word “abyss” refers to a large body of water, Vegh argues that, as its used in ancient texts, it is more likely to have a meaning more akin to portal.

5Tiahuanaco, Bolivia, ‘Gate of the Sun’

Photo credit: Daniel Maciel

Believed by some to be a portal to the land of the gods, the “Gate of the Sun” in Bolivia shares much of its legends with other similar sites in the Andes region. Tiahuanaco city is said to be one of the most important sites of ancient America, with legends stating that the Sun god, Viracocha, appeared in Tiahuanaco and made it “the place of creation”—the place he chose to start the human race.

Carved from one block of stone and thought to be 14,000 years old, the gateway displays what appears to be human beings with “rectangular helmets”. This has led many researchers to state the purpose of the gate is indeed connected to something astronomical, although this is hotly debated. The top-middle of the arch features a carving of the supposed sun god and shows what look to be rays of light appearing behind and forcing their way around all sides of the deities head. 

Although it now stands upright, when it was found by European explorers in the mid-1800’s, it was said to have been lying horizontally. It also appears to have a large crack to the top right of the arch. It is unknown how this happened.

4Ranmasu Uyana Stargate, Sri Lanka

අදටත් අභිරහසක් වූ රන්මසු උයනේ තාරකා දොරටුව – Ranmasu Uyana Stargate Sri Lanka

Carved on a massive piece of stone wall and mostly hidden between the boulders and cave systems of Ranmasu Uyana, is what is believed to be a star map or star chart. The symbols carved on the rock are said to be a code that opens the star gate and allows the opener to travel from this world to other areas of the universe. Directly opposite the star map, are four stone seats or chairs.

The name of the star chart is Sakwala Chakraya, which is believed to mean “The rotating circle of the Universe.” According to Sinhala interpretation, Sakwala means universe and Chakraya means a rotating circle or disc. 

In many ancient Native American legends, stargates or portals were represented by rotating circles. Similar star maps have also been found in other ancient sites said to be stargates, such as the Abu Ghurab in Egypt and many more ancient sites in the Andes of South America. Yet, mainstream historians disregard the notion that the Sakwla Chakraya is a portal or stargate.

3Abydos, Egypt

Photo credit: Roland Unger

One of the oldest cities of Ancient Egypt, Abydos is perhaps one of the most important sites in Egyptology and certainly one of the most interesting. In particular, the Temple of Seti I appears to show hieroglyphs of modern flying machines, such as a helicopter, as well as what some would describe as a flying saucer.

Perhaps even more amazing is how a lot of the site was discovered. A lady named Dorothy Eady had claimed to be the reincarnation of an Egyptian peasant girl named Bentreshyt and was the secret lover of Pharaoh Seti. She had become pregnant with his child, but before he could learn of the pregnancy, the peasant girl took her own life. Now in the 20th century, Dorothy was able to transcribe ancient Egyptian texts and even knew where the archaeologists should dig to excavate the remains of the ancient city. She seemingly knew where everything was, such as where secret chambers were and the location of gardens that had long since been buried. By the time they discovered precisely where she said they would be, people very much believed she was genuine.

Strangely, people also witnessed Dorothy pressing on certain stones in the walls, as if she was expecting something to happen when she did so. It was as if she was trying to open a secret door or gateway. In fact, she had already spoken about these hidden doors that used to be there. In 2003, Michael Schratt, a military aerospace engineer, stated that Abydos did sit on a naturally occurring stargate. Even more controversially, that the US government was very much aware of this and had actually utilized it.

Was this what Eady was looking for when she was pressing stones in the walls? Aside from the unusual helicopter hieroglyphs, comparisons have been made to the paintings of Egyptian boats that were said to carry its passengers to the next world in the stars, being very similar to how modern day scientists would portray a wormhole, or at least the theory of one. 

2Gobekli Tepe, Turkey

Photo credit: Benefits

Regarded as the oldest stone temple in the world, the Gobekli Tepe site features several rings of huge “T” shaped stone pillars, each engraved with a carving of an animal such as a lion or a sheep. Two of the pillars sit in the middle of these circles, almost creating an archway of sorts. The archway within these circles are said to be the remains of portals or stargates, which the ancient people who resided here used as a portal to the “sky world.”

The “T” columns are very similar to the “Gate of the Gods” at Hayu Marca in Peru. Interestingly, the Inca people spoke of a connection to the people from the Pleiades star system, which is also T-shaped. Like other alleged portals, Gobekli Tepe is situated where two ley lines meet. Although the site was recorded as far back as the 1960’s, it wasn’t until the the mid-90’s when the T-Shaped pillars were discovered. As for its true age, estimations date it around 12,000 years old.

1Sedona Vortexes And The ‘Doorway of the Gods’

Photo credit: Tedsan64

Sedona, a small town in Arizona was once known by the Native American tribes as Nawanda, and at one time, a most sacred city to them. It is said the Red Rocks of the deserts that surround the small town can create vortexes with the capability of transporting people to another realm or dimension. Native Americans believed these rocks were spiritually charged, while sounds emanating from them have been reported. In the mountains of Arizona, claims to be the “Doorway of the gods”—a strange stone arch portal to another time and space.

In the 1950’s, a local tribesman was aiding treasure hunters who were searching for gold in the mountains. He told them a story of his people, dating back to the 1800’s, of three tribesman who had discovered the archway while riding in the desert. The story goes that when one of them walked through, he simply disappeared. The other two, believing they had encroached on sacred land, fled the scene.

The helpful tribesman stated he had also seen a strange incident at the alleged doorway. While out in the desert, a sudden rain storm hit the area and turned the skies grey with clouds. As he turned to leave, he caught a glimpse of the archway, and saw that the skies through the arch were clear blue. He walked closer to it, seeing that the archway’s image of the mountain range was the same and the only difference was the sky. However, he too, became scared, mounted his horse and returned home.

He told the treasure hunters that only his people knew of the stories. He had only spoke of it because they had shown him kindness and to serve warning to not walk through the archway should they come across it.

All-Seeing Eye

April 27, 2020 by Kaylee Wood

On many papyri of Ancient Egypt you can find an interesting symbol – a triangle with an eye, it is called the “All-Seeing Eye.” Today, scientists suggest that Egypt is truly considered the birthplace of the symbol, and it belongs to numerous Masonic signs.

Table of Contents

• The origin of the Eye symbol in the triangle
• Types and significance of the All-Seeing Eye
  • In egyptian culture
  • In Christianity
  • In the countries of China and Japan
  • North America
  • Hinduism and Buddhism
  • Ancient Greece
• How to use a talisman

Figure symbol is an image of the human eye, described by a triangle. The symbol is considered very famous, and today it can be seen on many Egyptian buildings, architectural monuments, jewelry, clothes, dollars, souvenirs and even Orthodox icons. This is why he is mysterious, since he could independently appear in many cultures.

The origin of the Eye symbol in the triangle

The image of the All-Seeing Eye, also known as the Eye in the Triangle or the Radiant Delta, is associated with the image of the Great Architect of the Universe, the Creator, who in such an unpretentious way can constantly observe what free-masons bring to life.

Scientists connect the origin of the Masonic sign with the religion of the ancient Egyptians and the ciphers of a secret organization. It is believed that it is this magic symbol that will help people to know the secret of the Universe thanks to it, humanity will be endowed with mental and spiritual knowledge of the world. The sign represents prosperous prosperity, gaining strength, knowledge and development.

Scientists are inclined to believe that the magic sketch is a symbol of Masons, there is no scientific evidence for this, it is not clear what role the Illuminati play in the origin of the sign. It turns out that the mystery of the all-seeing eye has not been solved to this day, and humanity can only speculate, trying to find at least some evidence of the validity of their assumptions.

Types and significance of the All-Seeing Eye

Despite the version of Egyptian origin, this image is found in different religions and cultures. Each nation drew a secret symbol in its own way, giving it its own meaning, but in general, they are all somewhat similar.

In egyptian culture

Studying the styles of the ancient symbolism of Egypt, we can conclude that the Egyptian symbol itself is significantly different from all the others in its image. Represents a stylized eye glitch. Symbolizes incredible power, the power of knowledge.

It represents a mystical third eye, which is able to see something hidden from humanity, to learn something secret against this background, thus rising above all of humanity. Differing from them primarily by supernatural intuition, the ability to know everything in this world.

The sign is associated with an indispensable bright future, absolute power and power. This symbol allows you to develop its owner incredible supernatural ability to heal and the ability to see the future.

In Christianity

When you meet the Masonic sign with Christians, you immediately pay attention to a more realistic image of the picture. Moreover, the eye is literally inscribed in a regular triangle. It is the Orthodox writings that call the triangle with the eye inside the Radiant Delta.

The main meaning lies in the triangle itself. This geometrical figure of the correct form symbolizes three equally possible faces, like three hypostases of the Lord himself: the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. This defines powerful energy. The eye itself reminds us that everything is subject to the Lord God. Watching humanity, he sees not only actions, deeds, but also the thoughts of people. The eye is not singularly depicted in the singular, this suggests that everything that the Almighty sees cannot be dual. This is all exact, one, right.

The symbol characterizes quick insight, testifies that humanity will gradually gain spiritual wisdom, knowledge, which contributes to a greater disclosure of their intellectual abilities, potential. It personifies the blessed light, joy, the power of knowledge, the creation and existence of a higher mind.

In the countries of China and Japan

The ancient Chinese and Japanese painted the sign in a special way. The picture necessarily contained an image of the heavenly sanctuaries – the Moon, the Sun. It was through them that the future and the past of mankind were compared.

North America

American Aborigines believed that the Eye of the Great Spirit was able to tell a lot about the past, present, future.

Hinduism and Buddhism

According to the religions of the Indian subcontinent, the interpretation of the sign says – the eye is the eye of Shiva or Buddha himself. It characterizes spiritual development through the knowledge of wisdom. Only a wise person is able to take away from himself a kind of evil and unclean forces.

Ancient Greece

Drawing a drawing of the eye, the ancient Greeks compared it with the sun. The sign was completely associated with the powerful gods Zeus and Apollo. They believed that the eye can protect, warm, bringing light and grace.

Despite this, some Indo-European tribes, for example, the Celts, associated the eye exclusively with something negative, evil, treacherous. It was this symbol that could carry human envy, the intentions of something bad, black bad energy.

Summing up, you can see that different religions and cultures interpret the meaning of the symbol in different ways, draw a sign with obvious differences. However, it is not difficult to notice that some interpretations are similar – the All-Seeing Eye speaks of the power of knowledge. Such a keeper will endow with the ability to learn the secrets of being, the ability to see the “invisible”, but existing in our Universe. Only with him, under his auspices, will he be able to rise above humanity, gain power over minds, and learn to control his consciousness.

How to use a talisman

According to ancient scriptures, the All-Seeing Eye can be used as a powerful amulet, a talisman. That is why it was created by ancient people, perhaps even the organization of Masons. Today, images of a sacred symbol full of mysticism and magic can be seen on many products, it is still used as an amulet, a protection against all bad things. It is believed that the product attracts good, allows you to increase the intellectual level, to discover the abilities of the supernatural.

The green triangle is used for the design of banknotes, its image adorns pendants, rings, coins. Variants of the picture can be completely different, the main picture often contains a pyramid with the All-Seeing eye, a triangle, the outline of the eye itself. The material for such talismans can be completely different from metal, wood, fabric, ending with ordinary paper.

Choosing the option of the applied drawing, you need to be clearly aware of what the amulet will be associated with. It is advisable to choose a drawing in accordance with the religious characteristics of a particular culture. Such amulets can be used to protect housing, livestock, property and people. Therefore, such things are worn on the body, many even fill their eyes in a triangle, even on the body, like a tattoo. Amulets are placed in their homes, in the workplace, in a car.

Esotericists, who study in detail the effect of the magic symbol, assure that the proper wearing, storage of the amulet will allow a person to achieve a lot both in the workplace and in life in general. It will allow you to save and increase your fortune, attract the right people to your life. Perhaps the main thing is that with such a patron, wisdom, knowledge, understanding and development of certain abilities, talent that no one else has will come.Categories Chakras, Uncategorized

April 27, 2020 by Kaylee Wood

On many papyri of Ancient Egypt you can find an interesting symbol – a triangle with an eye, it is called the “All-Seeing Eye.” Today, scientists suggest that Egypt is truly considered the birthplace of the symbol, and it belongs to numerous Masonic signs.

Figure symbol is an image of the human eye, described by a triangle. The symbol is considered very famous, and today it can be seen on many Egyptian buildings, architectural monuments, jewelry, clothes, dollars, souvenirs and even Orthodox icons. This is why he is mysterious, since he could independently appear in many cultures.

The origin of the Eye symbol in the triangle

The image of the All-Seeing Eye, also known as the Eye in the Triangle or the Radiant Delta, is associated with the image of the Great Architect of the Universe, the Creator, who in such an unpretentious way can constantly observe what free-masons bring to life.

Scientists connect the origin of the Masonic sign with the religion of the ancient Egyptians and the ciphers of a secret organization. It is believed that it is this magic symbol that will help people to know the secret of the Universe thanks to it, humanity will be endowed with mental and spiritual knowledge of the world. The sign represents prosperous prosperity, gaining strength, knowledge and development.

Scientists are inclined to believe that the magic sketch is a symbol of Masons, there is no scientific evidence for this, it is not clear what role the Illuminati play in the origin of the sign. It turns out that the mystery of the all-seeing eye has not been solved to this day, and humanity can only speculate, trying to find at least some evidence of the validity of their assumptions.

Types and significance of the All-Seeing Eye

Despite the version of Egyptian origin, this image is found in different religions and cultures. Each nation drew a secret symbol in its own way, giving it its own meaning, but in general, they are all somewhat similar.

In egyptian culture

Studying the styles of the ancient symbolism of Egypt, we can conclude that the Egyptian symbol itself is significantly different from all the others in its image. Represents a stylized eye glitch. Symbolizes incredible power, the power of knowledge.

It represents a mystical third eye, which is able to see something hidden from humanity, to learn something secret against this background, thus rising above all of humanity. Differing from them primarily by supernatural intuition, the ability to know everything in this world.

The sign is associated with an indispensable bright future, absolute power and power. This symbol allows you to develop its owner incredible supernatural ability to heal and the ability to see the future.

In Christianity

When you meet the Masonic sign with Christians, you immediately pay attention to a more realistic image of the picture. Moreover, the eye is literally inscribed in a regular triangle. It is the Orthodox writings that call the triangle with the eye inside the Radiant Delta.

The main meaning lies in the triangle itself. This geometrical figure of the correct form symbolizes three equally possible faces, like three hypostases of the Lord himself: the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. This defines powerful energy. The eye itself reminds us that everything is subject to the Lord God. Watching humanity, he sees not only actions, deeds, but also the thoughts of people. The eye is not singularly depicted in the singular, this suggests that everything that the Almighty sees cannot be dual. This is all exact, one, right.

The symbol characterizes quick insight, testifies that humanity will gradually gain spiritual wisdom, knowledge, which contributes to a greater disclosure of their intellectual abilities, potential. It personifies the blessed light, joy, the power of knowledge, the creation and existence of a higher mind.

In the countries of China and Japan

The ancient Chinese and Japanese painted the sign in a special way. The picture necessarily contained an image of the heavenly sanctuaries – the Moon, the Sun. It was through them that the future and the past of mankind were compared.

American Aborigines believed that the Eye of the Great Spirit was able to tell a lot about the past, present, future.

Hinduism and Buddhism

According to the religions of the Indian subcontinent, the interpretation of the sign says – the eye is the eye of Shiva or Buddha himself. It characterizes spiritual development through the knowledge of wisdom. Only a wise person is able to take away from himself a kind of evil and unclean forces.

Ancient Greece

Drawing a drawing of the eye, the ancient Greeks compared it with the sun. The sign was completely associated with the powerful gods Zeus and Apollo. They believed that the eye can protect, warm, bringing light and grace.

Despite this, some Indo-European tribes, for example, the Celts, associated the eye exclusively with something negative, evil, treacherous. It was this symbol that could carry human envy, the intentions of something bad, black bad energy.

Summing up, you can see that different religions and cultures interpret the meaning of the symbol in different ways, draw a sign with obvious differences. However, it is not difficult to notice that some interpretations are similar – the All-Seeing Eye speaks of the power of knowledge. Such a keeper will endow with the ability to learn the secrets of being, the ability to see the “invisible”, but existing in our Universe. Only with him, under his auspices, will he be able to rise above humanity, gain power over minds, and learn to control his consciousness.

How to use a talisman

According to ancient scriptures, the All-Seeing Eye can be used as a powerful amulet, a talisman. That is why it was created by ancient people, perhaps even the organization of Masons. Today, images of a sacred symbol full of mysticism and magic can be seen on many products, it is still used as an amulet, a protection against all bad things. It is believed that the product attracts good, allows you to increase the intellectual level, to discover the abilities of the supernatural.

The green triangle is used for the design of banknotes, its image adorns pendants, rings, coins. Variants of the picture can be completely different, the main picture often contains a pyramid with the All-Seeing eye, a triangle, the outline of the eye itself. The material for such talismans can be completely different from metal, wood, fabric, ending with ordinary paper.

Choosing the option of the applied drawing, you need to be clearly aware of what the amulet will be associated with. It is advisable to choose a drawing in accordance with the religious characteristics of a particular culture. Such amulets can be used to protect housing, livestock, property and people. Therefore, such things are worn on the body, many even fill their eyes in a triangle, even on the body, like a tattoo. Amulets are placed in their homes, in the workplace, in a car.
