"In its higher octave, Saturn is the Guardian of the Threshold at the last frontier to the realm of the divine. In this capacity, Saturn is equivalent to Lucifer as the Light Bearer = Prometheus who brought the fire to mankind because he really loved humanity in contrast to god Zeus. In its lowest octave, Saturn is equated with Satan; is the seducer, persisting within the ego and a bar to resolve karmic entanglements" (Communitas Saturni, 2014).

The Intelligence Cycle is customarily illustrated as a repeating process consisting of five steps. Planning and direction encompasses the management of the entire effort and involves, in particular, determining collection requirements based on customer requests. Collection refers to the gathering of raw data to meet the collection requirements. These data can be derived from any number and type of open and secret sources. Processing refers to the conversion of raw data into a format analysts can use. Analysis and production describes the process of evaluating data for reliability, validity, and relevance; integrating and analyzing it; and converting the product of this effort into a meaningful whole, which includes assessments of events and implications of the information collected. Finally, the product is disseminated to its intended audience.

“The more a social engineer can make his contact seem like business as usual, the more he allays suspicion. When people don’t have a reason to be suspicious, it’s easy for a social engineer to gain their trust. Once he’s got your trust, the drawbridge is lowered and the castle door thrown open so he can enter and take whatever information he wants” (Kevin D Mitnick).
