I recently beat this game on N64 and when i got to Ganondorf's Castle at the end and saw the Rainbow Bridge connecting to it, it instantly clicked with me that this was some sort of Kabbalistic allegory.

Apparently in Kabbalah the Sefirot of Daat (The Abyss) has a Rainbow Bridge, and within this Abyss dwells an entity known as Choronzon.

Is Ganondorf Choronzon? When Link goes up the Rainbow Bridge and beats Ganondorf in his castle is he allegorically crossing the Abyss and defeating Choronzon to ascend to higher Sefirot/Planes?

I've also heard that the Triforce represents the 3 Kabbalistic Pillars and that Link is actually Lucifer because of his Green Tunic and the Synchronicities of his ingame story with medieval tales about Lucifer. So what is /x/'s take on this? What is the real esoteric meaning of Ocarina of Time?

>inb4 wrong board.

The Ingame Medallions (That each represent an Aspect/Sefirot) are also 6 in total, but with the Triforce in the middle it makes 9, and if we count the inverted invisible triangle (Qlippoth?) in the middle of the Triforce we get 10, like a complete tree of life.

The ingame Rainbow Bridge is also formed by the powers of these 6 Medallions combined.

Link's Cap is also very similar to Horus's Sidelock of Hair, which is fitting since Horus is analogous to Lucifer.

>>40623034
If we look at Link as Horus and Ganon as Set this would also make sense because in Egyptian Mythology Set did have a Black Pig Form and Ganon's final ingame form is a Pig.
>picrel

>It came to the knowledge of Set that Ra would consult with Horus, and it seemed to him that an opportunity was at hand to injure Horus, so
he took upon himself the form of a Black Pig.

>Fierce was his aspect, long and sharp his tushes, and his colour was the blackness of the thundercloud, savage and evil was his look, and struck fear into the hearts of men.

I've also noticed some Hindu/Shaktism themes in Ocarina of Time, for example the 3 Golden Goddesses and the use of Rupees as ingame currency...

>>40623160
The idea that games are called "Vidya" may also be a reference to Shri Vidya, which is a Tantric branch of Shaktism.

The Master Sword itself is also the Arthurian Sword In The Stone which is highly Esoteric in it's own right...

I've been working on this for a long time and I'm gonna expose nintendo, but you can figure it out as well.

Watch record of lodoss war. Then decompile the development rom. Look for the catholic cross, or the islamic moon. The hylian as european, gerudo as middle eastern, deku as south american, kokiri as north american, goron as african/indian, zora as asian, the birdpeople in ww clearly peruvean, or the other sky peoples as annunaki, etc, etc.

It came out during the times of indiana jones, tomb raider, and D&D to have you feeling like you found the temples of ancient civilizations and sincretized their misticisms. They forgot their own formula now and make silly tech demos.

Here's a theory i don't want to share with anyone but i feel charitable today. Think of link as parn's and deedlit's son. Think of parn as aragorn and deedlit as legolas. Remember tolkien was making gilgamesh and beowulf fanart.

The dudes at nintendo simply had a D&D session in the lodoss world. Lodoss = Hylia = Lordran. Well, no, the graveyard zone in majoras is lordran, but uhm, yea.... figure the rest out yourself.

The Forrest Temple also has this Masonic Checkered Floor.

>>40623262
Ocarina of Time's blocks also has the Crescent Moon, as for the Hylians, i think they are a reference to Gnostic Hylics, materialistic people without any connection with the Spiritual. When you look at Hylians in the Town Market they act indeed very Hylic...

>>40623303
Here's the ingame Crescent Moon and it's replacement in later versions...

>>40623303

yep, you are spot on, I'm just to lazy to think for OP when this can be figured out if you pay enough attention for lonh enough.

I'm working on a game with their original formula so uhm, you can see what i mean sometime this decade.

>>40623303

The entrance to the Spirit Temple has the Egyptian Winged Solar Disk...

"The most prominent audio sample controversy surrounding The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time involves the Fire Temple theme. The original version of the theme included a sample of Islamic chanting, which was later removed in subsequent releases. Nintendo removed the sample due to the religious nature of the chant, aligning with their policy of avoiding direct references to real-world religions. "

At the Bottom of the Well in Kakariko Village there is a subtle "As Above So Below" with the Wall Hints, one saying Danger Above and the Other saying Danger Below (An obvious yet subtle reference to the Hermetic Axiom "As Above so Below".

So Legend of Zelda, especially this game, is notorious for its esoteric and mythologic connotations. Its mythos take most direct inspiration from the Shinto religion, however just as western white women are obsessed with yoga and Hindu religion the Japanese view western esotericism in the same light. As some type of exotic and mysterious tradition to harvest inspiration from. So you see in a ton of the more heady and mythic Japanese media an amalgamation of their folk religion lore with western esoteric symbols or themes.

We also want to look at the influence of Buddhism on Japan's modern Shinto religion, and early Buddhism did interface with Greek philosophy/metaphysics. Kabbalah is the influence of Greek metaphysics (neoplatonism) on Jewish mysticism. Neoplatonism has the same type of effect on everything it touches to a point that you think its all the same truth but what you're actually seeing is neoplatonic emanation metaphysics influencing a massive part of mystic and intellectual culture. This cross pollination here has led to neoplatonic ideas infecting modern Shinto religion (though very lightly) through Buddhist philosophys influence on Japan at large. So when you see things that look like Kabbalah in a far away land or culture a lot of times what you're witnessing is the everpresent influence of Neoplatonic metaphysics on worldwide mysticism/religion.

Nope. This is exactly where you want to be. Occult symbology in all art and mediaforms are valid for discussion. Taking this to /v/ would get you "le wrong board, faggot" posts.

The real esoteric meaning is that evil desert sorcerers with big noses who care only for power corrupt goodness and one must keep a pure heart and balance power with courage and wisdom to maintain harmony.

Or, and hear me out, the writers drew inspiration for this stuff from reality to make a good game. There’s no big secret.

It was done in Japan. You should try to look at their culture to understand. I know that Americans are upset about the control of culture by the Jews, but it's different there.

Chorozon has no relation with Jewish Kabbalah. It is a demon from the enochian system and Crowley associated it with Daath.

the labyrinth is the womb, the game being played.

the clue to winning the game, beating the labyrinth, saving the princes is to....how did Jesus defeat satan?
>And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, [even] the Son of man which is in heaven.
there's something the monitaur, a beast headed man, cant do or lacks.

understanding, humility, submission to God, etc.
>the hylics, vs pneumatics
traits that a beast can't manifest, man (or son of man), the hero of the story, naturally manifests.
this is why in all the epics, myths, divine script, the hero is of divine lineage.
