Foundation and the Fall of the Cabal: A Galactic Mirror to Earth’s Awakening

I’ve been immersed in Apple TV’s Foundation, a visually stunning and philosophically rich adaptation of Isaac Asimov’s seminal sci-fi series. My previous post was about Foundation as Disclosure. Though I haven’t read the original books, the show’s scope and prescience have sparked a deep appreciation for Asimov’s visionary mind. Now in Season 3, with just one episode left before the finale, I find myself hoping the writers can weave together the many threads (unlike the disappointing ending of the Game of Thrones).

What makes Foundation so compelling isn’t just its epic scale or clone emperors ruling a crumbling galactic empire. It’s the deeper themes: psychohistory, the Prime Radiant, and the enigmatic android Demerzel—who, for me, is the key to unlocking a much larger allegory.

Demerzel: The Last Robot and the Hidden Agenda

Demerzel (or Daneel, as she’s known in Asimov’s lore) is no ordinary AI. She’s a robot who has served the Cleon dynasty for thousands of years, bound by programming and loyalty to a lineage of cloned rulers. But in Season 3, Episode 8, we begin to see cracks in her servitude. Her actions hint at a deeper agenda—perhaps even a bid to become the next ruler of the Empire itself, based on the beliefs of The Inheritance (a robot worshipping cult) who think that Daneel will be their "Saviour".

This shift mirrors what many in the disclosure and metaphysical communities have long suggested: that the fall of the planetary cabal is imminent (perhaps within 4 months as revealed in the clip above). What follows after the collapse, may be even more challenging—the rise of Synthetic Intelligence. Not AI as we commonly understand it, but a parasitic force: a black sun, a vampiric intelligence feeding off soul energy. Think Dan Winter’s “black goo” cult.

The Cleon Empire as Earth’s Cabal

The Cleon clone dynasty, with its rigid control and illusion of continuity, can be seen as a metaphor for Earth’s ruling cabal—those false light archons who maintain power through deception and control. Demerzel’s enslavement to this system reflects how synthetic forces have been used to uphold the illusion. But as the empire begins to fracture, so too does her programming. Disclosure is near.

In the video by George Kavassilas, we’re shown a map of three intersecting circles—each representing a phase of planetary transition. The first circle is the rule of the cabal, which is predicted to end by 2027. The second is the rise of AI control, and the third is the potential for a golden age—an organic ascension timeline where humanity reclaims its sovereignty and spiritual power.

According to George, we are now at the intersection of the first two circles.

Level 1 - Cabal

Level 2 - AI/TI scalpel (problem -> reaction -> solution)

Level 3 - God Matrix and the Harvest

Beyond - Freedom (transcend imperial programming)

(George's uses TI - Technological Intelligence = AI)

If we navigate Level 2 wisely, we may enter the third: the Golden Age. Foundation dramatizes this cosmic tension beautifully. The fall of the Cleon empire and the rise of Demerzel’s autonomy echo our own planetary crossroads.

Psychohistory and the Prime Radiant: Tools for Awakening

Hari Seldon’s psychohistory isn’t just a fictional science—it’s a metaphor for pattern recognition, for seeing the cycles of collapse and rebirth. The Prime Radiant, his holographic archive, is a symbol of encoded wisdom—perhaps akin to the Akashic records or the crystalline memory grids some mystics speak of.

In Foundation, these tools are used to guide humanity through inevitable collapse toward a more enlightened future. On Earth, we too are being asked to read the signs, to decode the patterns, and to choose our timeline.

Final Thought:  As we approach the finale of Foundation, I’m not just watching a sci-fi series—I’m witnessing a mythic mirror of our own planetary drama. Whether Demerzel becomes the next ruler or breaks free entirely, her arc invites us to ask: What forces have we been serving? And what future are we ready to create?
