The Hidden Meaning of the Star Wars Trilogy

The original Star Wars trilogy (Episodes 4, 5, and 6) was one of the most resonating movie franchises in film history. For as long as I can remember, I really enjoyed thinking about various details of the movie. As I got older and learned more things about the world, I liked to think about different parts of the story. When I thought I was a suave, cocky hotshot, I liked to imagine myself as Han Solo. When I thought I wanted power, I thought of myself as Darth Vader.

I never liked to think of myself as Luke, because I always thought he was a wuss. Until one day, I called my Father and only then realized the point of everything, and only then realized the point of the story.

If Star Wars were to have a bill of characters, if would read as thus:

A Long Time Ago, in a Galaxy Far, Far Away: This is saying "the setting and chronological details of the story aren't important," only the content of the story and how it resonates with your life.

Luke Skywalker / Princess Leia: These characters represent Jesus Christ and you, whether you're in male or female outer form. The fact that it took Luke years of training and much turmoil to realize he was a Jedi and the things he tells Leia, that she already knows, at the end of Return of the Jedi, reflect that the female form is born closer to The Force (what we call God) already, even though they don't consciously know it. Leia and Luke also represent the intent of marriage and True Love. Luke learns only by becoming a Jedi and One with the Force that he is exactly the same as Leia, he no longer looks at her lustfully and feels the need to impress her with anything. He learns what Men must learn, that you must love Her (God, and everything else) more than your false sense of Self for her True Love to be reflected back to you.

Leia means "Child of Heaven" in Hawaiian. This name is saying that all women are "Earth Lights."

Luke Skywalker tranlates into "Heavenly Light Traveler."

Leia and Luke are both heavenly lights, one in the same, despite looking different on the exterior. This is why the Force tells Luke that Leia is his twin sister. They represent your soul, or the white horse of the Apocalypse of Revelations.

Ben Kenobi - Luke first enounters Ben in physical form. Ben initially guides Luke in the physical form. After Ben Kenobi dies in a lightsaber duel with Darth Vader, he follows and protects Luke to a greater extent than he could in his physical form. Ben Kenobi is the guardian angel Gabriel, both in spirit and physical form. He is simply an older physical form of Luke, and then becomes pure light.

Han Solo - The name is a shortened form for "Hand Solo," and represents the love of money (having one hand out) and the right hand of God. Leia says to Han, in episode IV, "If money is all that you love, then that's what you'll receive." Han Solo coming back to save Luke represents someone giving up their love of money, and becoming the right hand of God, which is what the character Han Solo represents. Han Solo originally only cares about himself, but by the time episode VI rolls around, he cares about a greater purpose. He saves Luke, and ultimately himself, by giving up his false love of money. This is the right hand of God saving you from your physical faults (sins).

Yoda - Possibly a contracted form of Hebrew Yehuwdah, meaning praised. Yoda is the ultimate Jedi master, so he is praised. Yoda represents pure light, the ultimate power.

Dagobah - Dagobah is sparsely populated by humans but explored and contains a lot of life. This place represents nature and is the best place to feel the Force. The fact that it's sparsely populated represents that not many people study the Force.

Darth Vader - Darth Vader means "Dark Father." Darth Vader represents your rational mind. Darth Vader attempting to get Luke to join the Dark Side represents your mind trying to seduce you into thinking it's the only reality. The reason why it's so hard for Luke to defeat him is because he's fighting his own mind. In Revelations, the rational mind was represented as the Black Horse of the Apocalypse.

Imperial Guard - These are red soldiers that represent the emotional mind. In revelations, this was represented as the red horse of the apocalypse. The Red Horse is you emotional nature. That horse should be following behind so that the Black Horse(your intellectual nature) can make decisions based on right or wrong, but generally the Red Horse rears up and charges and your emotions take over and get in the way of reason.

Cloud City - Cloud city represents your mind. The structure of cloud city represents your spinal column rising to meet your mind. The spinal column is the lower part with the mind being the top part. This represents the 7 chakras and how they link to the ultimate consciousness (God). The battle between Luke and Vader in the ESB represents the battle for full consciousness (7^th Chakra). Vader cuts off Luke's right hand and his lightsaber falls down the spine of higher consciousness after rationalizing with Luke that he's his true Father (i.e., the determination of good and evil or trying to figure everything in the Universe out), Luke lets go by letting his body (consciousness) fall to the bottom of Cloud City, the base of conciousness at the base of the spine, the first chakra.

Death Star 1 - The destruction of this represents your view of reality exploding after you use the Force the first time. This is when you meditate and open the sixth seal, or six chakra the first time.

Death Star 2 - The destruction of this represents your view of reality changing again after they believe and trust in the Force. This is a battle that must be fought in and out of reality. The 2^nd Death Star also represents fear of physical death in the human mind.

Emperor - The Emperor represents fear of physical death or other emotions as they relate to the physical body. The only thing that can conquer this is the rational mind, or Darth Vader. After Darth Vader does this, he changes back into the light, or pure Mind. In Revelations, this was represented as the Pale Horse of the Apocalypse. The destruction of this Fear in the Death Star 2 is necessary for its destruction.

Battle of Endor - The animals (Ewoks) fighting the Imperials (dark mind) is the same battle as in and on the Death Star 2, just on a lower, less celestial scale.

Lightsaber - This represents the energy path up the spine to connect with the Higher Consciousness. In Hinduism, these are called Chakras, and are sometimes represented by intertwined serpents. The lightsaber, carried by the Jedi on the right hand, also represents the connection to God on the right hand side of the brain (pineal gland) and literal right hand after the 7^th Seal (Chakra) is broken.

So far, you probably disagree with my definitions, which is fine. Now, consider what I wrote and consider the following scripture:

Revelation 5:1 provides the following description. " And I saw in the right hand (right hemisphere of the brain/eastern sky or right side), of him who sat on the throne ,(higher consciousness), a book, (the book of life), written within (within the human body), and on the back side, (the spine), sealed with seven seals. (Seven seals/Seven Chakras).

Numbers 23:19 God is not a man

1 John 1:5 God is light.

Luke 17:21 The Kingdom of God is within you.

Matthew 5:14 You are the light of the world.

If you think that Star Wars is not about the journey to Consciousness, watch it again and watch for little clues. Watch how when the Millineium Falcon saves Luke in Episode 4, there's a very bright light behind it (it's not a star behind it either). There are many other clues too, but I'll let you find them.

May the Force be with you.
