A man was found dead in a “pool of blood” at the Burning Man festival Saturday night – just as a massive human-shaped wooden effigy was being torched in the Nevada desert, according to authorities.

The body was discovered around 9 p.m. when a festival goer flagged down a sheriff’s deputy and reported seeing “a male subject lying in a pool of blood,” the Pershing County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release Sunday.

Authorities are now investigating the death as a homicide.

The grisly scene was uncovered while the “Man,” a towering human-shaped wooden sculpture at the center of the festival grounds in Black Rock City was set on fire, the sheriff’s office said.

We now have elected officials openly condemning prayer.....this is all just more confirmation of a fallen world.

Now that someone has died...probably a murder, it needs to be shut down permanently.

I'd say this looks like a pagan human sacrifice......🤔

That was my immediate thought.

Oh, they had mud this year as well. Plus dust storms. But, I suppose its some sort of right of passage to destroy tons of useable lumber and pay $500+ for tickets to give the finger to capitalism. Or something. 🤔💰

George Costanza: One person? That’s no tragedy! How many people do you lose on a normal Burning Man? 30? 40?

Doesn’t matter how many they lose, they are clearly not Penske material.

Was that wrong?

The police and Nat Guard should fence off the area around the burning man fest while it’s going on, declare a “purge” situation (no laws for 24 hours) dump in a pile of guns and knives then sit back and enjoy the show.

It's interesting that the location is Black Rock City (LLC)..in the Black Rock Desert..

Like BlackRock, Inc.

BlackRock, Inc. is an American multinational investment company. Founded in 1988, initially as an enterprise risk management and fixed income institutional asset manager, BlackRock is the world's largest asset manager, with US$12.5 trillion in assets under management as of 2025.

Who would have thought?

BlackRock, Inc. is an American multinational investment company. Founded in 1988...

The 1955 movie, Bad Day at Black Rock, had a budget of $1,288,000, and its box office was $3,788,000.

More on 88 later.


There is often a numerology component to public events - numbers coded into language. Burning Man has many, these are a few of them.

One of the things this festival - at Black Rock City in the Black Rock desert - is known for is the "orgy dome." While there's no indication of a relationship between the festival and BlackRock Inc - the world's largest asset management company, and there likely isn't, the term just seems to be popular on some level, as if there's a message.

New Order refers to the New World Order, and BlackRock is a WEF partner.

Burning Man and the Roman festival known as Saturnalia - which took place in December - share numerology.

While Saturnalia wasn't known for licentiousness - (the Bacchanalia festival was), there were public and private Saturnalia celebrations.

We've established a numeric connection of Burning Man to an ancient Roman festival, and here to the Roman Empire..and to the phrase 'pool of blood':

A symbol associated with the planet Saturn is the hexagon. On the esoteric importance of the hexagon..

Of all the geometric shapes in sacred geometry, the hexagon is arguably the most powerful. And fascinating. The six-sided geometric shape is found in many spiritual symbols such as the Star of David, The Tree of Life in the Kabbalah and the Hagal Rune composed by ancient tribes of northern Europe.

Saturn's hexagon is a persistent approximately hexagonal cloud pattern around the north pole of the planet Saturn, located at about 78°N.

On the Seal of Solomon..

The Seal of Solomon or Ring of Solomon (Hebrew: חותם שלמה, Ḥotam Shlomo; Arabic: خاتم سليمان, Khātam Sulaymān) is the legendary signet ring attributed to king Solomon in medieval mystical traditions, from which it developed in parallel within Jewish mysticism, Islamic mysticism and Western occultism.

It is often depicted in the shape of either a hexagram or a pentagram. In mystic Jewish lore, the ring is variously described as having given Solomon the power to command the supernatural, including shedim and jinn, and also the ability to speak with animals. Due to the proverbial wisdom of Solomon, it came to be seen as an amulet or talisman, or a symbol or character in medieval magic and Renaissance magic, occultism, and alchemy.

The seal is the predecessor to the Star of David..

Temple of Saturn - in honor of the Roman god Saturn, for whom the planet Saturn was named. Note the number 88 - seen at the beginning of this post - as it relates numerically BlackRock.

Blackstone also ventured into other businesses, most notably investment management. In 1987 Blackstone entered into a 50–50 partnership with the founders of BlackRock, Larry Fink (current CEO of BlackRock), and Ralph Schlosstein (CEO of Evercore).

Blackstone <-> BlackRock.

On the symbolism and esoteric meaning of the black stone:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkbIceq6hIo

excerpt

Throughout history certain artifacts have been associated with immense power, supernatural influence, and dark mysteries. Among these the black stone holds a unique and enigmatic position in occult traditions. It has been revered, feared, and shrouded in legends that span across civilizations, religions, and esoteric orders. The concept of a mystical black stone, imbued with dark energy and arcane significance, can be traced back to ancient civilizations, where such stones were believed to possess divine or infernal properties. Whether a cosmic relic, a fallen star, or an earthly talisman - infused with supernatural forces, the black stone has played a role in various secret societies, religious doctrines, and esoteric teachings.

On the concept of the Saturn death cult..

The Saturn Death Cult: An Exploration of the Saturnian Mythos and its Influence on Human Civilisation

Troy D. McLachlan’s The Saturn Death Cult delves into the esoteric and often controversial subject of Saturn worship, tracing its origins from ancient civilisations to its perceived influence on modern society. Central to McLachlan’s thesis is the idea that Saturn, once regarded as the dominant celestial body in the ancient sky, became an object of reverence and fear, influencing not only religious systems but also societal structures, economic control, and power dynamics. This essay will examine the core themes of McLachlan’s work, exploring the mythology of Saturn, its role in ancient cosmology, and the concept of a global elite perpetuating a “Saturnian” agenda in contemporary times.

A final thought..

In Roman mythology, Saturn ruled during the Golden Age, and he continued to be associated with wealth. His temple housed the treasury, the aerarium, where the Roman Republic's reserves of gold and silver were stored.

BlackRock..Blackstone - are both associated primarily with wealth.

Be careful, though..
