Returning Families
"All I am or can be I owe to my angel-mother."
— Abraham Lincoln, private conversation with William Herndon, c.1850
Lincoln's mother died of milk sickness (consumption) when he was nine years old. Later in life he spoke of her with much tenderness and appreciation. According to his longtime law associate and biographer, William Herndon, Lincoln talked to him about his mother only once — in a one-horse buggy on the way to court — which was notably the first and last time they discussed his ancestry. The above citation was immortalised by Herndon in an interview (Cincinnati Commercial, 25 July 1867) two years after Lincoln’s death. While more may be said about his mother and father, as well as his belief in god and guardian angels, we now turn to Lincoln's actual Dhuman family lineage. These lives are set out as clarified by El Ochre and El Aurenx (1997, 2025).

The Lives of Lincoln
The lives of Abraham Lincoln can be traced back to Menelaiu, the eldest son of twin-souls Salomaiu and Salome, whose names come down to us via their ancient Atlantean incarnations. The three often reappeared in the same family roles or as members of the same karmic constellation. Our next post (in preparation) looks at the lives of Salomaiu and Salome from their time in latter-day Atlantis to their role in the Victorian age. We now focus on the relationship between father and son only.
Menelaiu returned as Moab, a legendary ancestor of the Moabites, and the son of Lot (Salomaiu) and his wife (Salome). In the biblical story Moab is the elder son of Lot, pronounced Lud, by incest with his elder daughter. This is fiction. In reality Moab was the eldest son of Lot by his principal wife Uda, also rendered in Jewish tradition as Ada or Edith. She was of course never turned into a pillar of salt. This is merely an allegory used to represent the neutralisation of the Divine Feminine working through Salome:
​

"The biblical legend of Lot with his wife and daughters is anachronistic in that the original events occurred over two lifetimes in Atlantis. Salomaiu was among the Sons of God, incarnate in the Dhuman-Adamic race of Atlantis who married with the daughters of men. Overcome by the infernal force of lust, he became impervious to the spiritual influence of the Divine Feminine force in his twin-soul, Salome. Her spiritual impotency with regard to him was symbolised as 'a pillar of salt', for in alchemy salt represents the inert neutralisation of polarities. The consequence of all this was his spiritual fall into incest. Thus he had sexual relations with his own daughters, born of his adultery." (El Aurenx, Esoteric Biographies, 1997–2001)
​
The three would be reunited again during Egypt's Eighteenth dynasty. Unbeknown to official history, Amenhotep was the son of Pharaoh Thutmosis II and Queen Hatshepsut. He was also the half-brother of Thutmosis III (an early incarnation of Thomas Jefferson). Amenhotep rose to become Keeper of the Royal Ark of Amen (Ark of the Covenant), a priestly role later inherited by Moses, otherwise known as Osiraes or Adolemaiu. Significantly, in the biblical account the Ark was carried by the Israelites into the land of Moab where the Covenant was renewed and where, later, Moses died (Deuteronomy 29). The Kingdom of Moab and the Kingdom of Judah lay on opposite sides of the Salt (Dead) Sea,
​​
It is said the Ark was confiscated by Osiraes and his 'brother-priest' Asarharon (an early incarnation of Haroun al-Rashid and Francis Bacon) during the exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt: "The 18th-dynasty priests of Amen misused it in the practice of sorcery to invoke telepathic control over elemental forces and entities belonging to the lower astral plane — and this resulted in phenomena of the kind often seen in shamanism, akin to voodoo or that type of witchcraft which is of ill-repute. However, Osiraes was instructed by inspiration to have the ark modified for other purposes. It was then attuned to psychic-etheric forces of a higher order and became the repository of a special meta-technological device. The radiation transmitted through this instrument could be directed to attune the etheric body of a properly prepared adept to a very high frequency..." (Olipheru, 27 September 2003)
​

Menelaiu reappeared as Menelik, sole offspring of King Solomon (Salomaiu) and the Queen of Sheba (Salome). She is also known as Bilqis and Makeda. According to tradition, Menelik reclaimed the Ark and brought it back to Egypt, installing it on the island temple of Elephantine until he found sanctuary for it in the Chapel of the Ark at Aksum, then the royal capital, where it allegedly remains to this day. Linked by legend to Ham, youngest son of Noah, the Ethiopians have served as custodians of the Ark. Menelik is ever since the legendary ancestor of the Emperors of Ethiopia.
​


Menelaiu returned as Lucan (39 – 65 CE), a Roman poet and Republican patriot. Lucan was the nephew of Seneca the Younger (El Eremulu, an early incarnation of John Milton), under whose tutelage he received a Stoic education. The youthful Lucan studied in Athens and showed early promise as a rhetorician and orator, drawing attention to himself back in Rome. He became both a friend and, later, a foe of Nero. Nero resented Lucan's fame and forbade him to recite his poems in public. (Tacitus, Annals XV.49) Disenchanted by Nero's tyranny and embittered by the ban on his recitations, Lucan responded by insulting Nero in poetic form. He was eventually implicated in the Pisonian conspiracy against the emperor and, like his uncle Seneca, executed by forced suicide on Nero's orders. Tacitus adds that Lucan died repeating a passage from one of his poems describing the death of a wounded soldier. He was 26 years old.
​



When Nero compelled him to commit suicide by opening a vein, Seneca cut his wrists in a bath to quicken his death. Seneca and Lucan both played leading roles in the conspiracy of Gaius Calpurnius Piso. There were at least 41 others involved, 19 of whom were executed or likewise forced to commit suicide, while another 17 were exiled or denigrated. Only 5 were acquitted. Such was the madness of Nero. While Lucan is inextricably linked to Nero, now reincarnte as Trump, this stoical soul is not incarnate today. (El Ochre, 2 April 2025)
​


Menelaiu and Salomaiu appeared once more as President Lincoln (1809 – 1865) and Colonel Olcott (1832 – 1907). Henry Steel Olcott was a respected journalist, field correspondent and army officer in the American Civil War. After his service in the US Army, Olcott was admitted to the position of Special Commissioner in the War Department (New York) and, later still, promoted to the rank of Colonel in the Navy Department (Washington). He went on to become a lawyer after serving on the commission to investigate Lincoln's assassination. He is better known today as a Buddhist and Theosophist.
In turn, Lincoln is known as a republican patriot and deep-thinking Stoic. His ability to remain steadfast and calm in the face of adversity is seen as an exemplary blend of stoicism and spirituality. He believed the Civil War was God's punishment for the sins of slavery and called on the nation to seek forgiveness. He draws a parallel with Sodom and Gomorrah, unconsciously perhaps, saying sinfulness provokes God's wrath. (Genesis 19) Lincoln certainly knew his Old Testament well, including the story about the Ark of the Covenant, and made his own covenant with God to free the slaves should the Unionists win the Civil War: "I made a solemn vow before God, that if General Lee was driven back from Pennsylvania, I would crown the result by the declaration of freedom to the slaves.” (Civil War Diaries, 1862)
​
"Historians often speak of the hinges of history, of turning points that shape all that comes afterward. The Emancipation Proclamation was such a turning point, and the fact that it arose from a nation’s leader making a covenant with God to liberate a people is a tale we ought to know, we ought to celebrate, and we ought to commend to the generations that follow us. In doing so, we might help our nation return to the covenant-making God of Abraham Lincoln."
— Stephen Mansfield, Abraham Lincoln and His Covenant with God, 16 February 2024

Like Lucan, Lincoln was a gifted orator. His Gettysburg Address on 19 November 1863 is popularly seen as "one of the most famous, enduring, and historically significant speeches in American history." (Wikipedia) However, his life was cut short once again, this time by assassination.​
​
​While Lincoln's natural parents, Nancy Hanks and Thomas Lincoln, should not be confused with his spiritual parents, Salomaiu and Salome, he did see in his mother something of the Divine Feminine. We shall examine this theme in our next post.
