Led Zeppelin Satanic Theories

June 2nd 2008 00:19
Led Zepplin are freaking awesome. If you doubt this, have a look;



A band this huge tends to develop plenty of conspiracy theories. In Led Zeppelin’s case, it was a ripper, a conspiracy that became part of the ledged of Rock n’ roll itself.

The conspiracy stemmed from a passage of Stairway to Heaven which was said to hide Satanic messages that could be heard when played backwards.


There are many variations of what the segment says, but one of the most cited is – “Here’s to my sweet Satan, the one’s who’s path would make me sad, whose power is Satan, He’ll give you 666, He has a toolshed where he made us suffer, sad Satan.’

The following video gives full lyrics for the song backwards, suggesting it as dedicated in its entirety to Satan;



Aside from the various conspiracies surrounding ‘Stairway,’ there are a small number of things that additionally have helped to build on the conspiracy.

The Image 'Zoso' from Led Zeppelin Four


Jimmy Page has been long associated, if not directly with Satanism, with the Occult, and had a known interest in the writings of Alistair Crawly. His symbol, from the album Led Zeppelin four often referred to as ‘Zoso’ has an unknown meaning, as yet unexplained meaning, but contains symbolism, taken from Crowly.

Hare Krishna Spam

I got an unusual Email the other day.
Call out Gouranga be happy...
Gouranga Gouranga Gouranga
That which brings the highest happiness!

I was pretty perplexed by this. It wasn’t selling anything. It wasn’t really spam, in a traditional sense anyhow.
I had a bit of a poke around on the Internet. Gouranga is a Hare-Krishna word, meaning ‘Be Happy’. The identity of the Spammer in question isn’t known, but a gentleman contacting the International Society for Krishna Consciousness received this message from not the society itself, but an anonymous individual:
Hello Joe,

I am just very enthusiastic person, who wants everybody to be happy.

))

What an incredible inspiration! The medium of Computer Spam being Hijacked to bring joy, not misery, to give instead of take.
I find it uplifting that there are people willing to do things for no other reason than wanting others to be happy.

Wikipedia Article on Gouranga.
