Death Chants
Decoding 6-7 and the Kessler Twins
If you work with or are often around children, you are likely aware of the 6-7 meme that has been incredibly popular with them. The meme just consists of saying “six, seven” while moving ones hands up and down, palms up, in an oscillating motion, as if one is weighing a decision, or perhaps juggling imaginary balls. It has become the bane of middle school teachers nationally, particularly of those teaching math.
But where does it come from, what does it mean, and why bother talking about it anyhow? Longtime readers will be aware of my worldview, namely that we live in a universe akin to what Leibniz described in the Monadology, where ideas are not just the result of electrons bouncing around in people’s heads, but rather ideas are quite real and have an effect upon the world in and of themselves. That consciousness is not a function of materiality, but rather that material reality is a function of consciousness (primarily God’s). And that ideas, resonating across the Morphic Resonance (to borrow Rupert Sheldrake’s idea), affect the material reality by way of creating synchronicities (Carl Jung), said synchronicities when analyzed semiotically, reveal truths that might otherwise remain veiled or hidden. Such is the general purpose of this blog.
Understand then, that group recitation or recitation such as singing, chanting, prayer, or just repetition of memes, can have a very real and measurable effect upon the world around us. It is in part the explanation for the success of Christianity, which had a monastic tradition at its core; groups of men undistracted by life, praying professionally on behalf of all of Christendom. Such activities have the potential to put wind into the sails of all Christian endeavors. But conversely, chanting, praying or just repeating death chants can serve to have the opposite effect, causing destruction and wreaking havoc across society, even if the people repeating the chant, meme or song have no idea of the meaning behind it. It is for this reason that semiotic analysis is so important, and why we are forced to turn our attention to the 6-7 meme and understand its roots.
Our story begins with a rap song by the Philadelphia artist, Skrilla, and his song, “Doot Doot.” Skrilla, whose name is derived from African American slang meaning “money”, is a dreadlocked character with facial tattoos and a metallic grille on his teeth. The lyrics to the song that reference 6-7 are as follows:
Shades on, l’m Boul Wit Da Glasses
Bro say er ‘cause he a savage
So many dead opps, so many ashes (Brrt)
You ain’t catch that, I can’t pass this (Come here)
Shooter stay strapped, I don’t need mine
Bro put belt right to they behind
The way that switch brrt, I know he dyin’ (Oh my, oh my God)
6-7, I just bipped right on the highway (Bip, bip)
Skrrt, uh (Bip, bip, bip)
I just bipped right on the highway (Bip)
Trackhawk, mm, sittin’ in the driveway (Skrrt)
Uh, pull up, doot-doot, doo-doo-doo
On the surface these lyrics are garbage nonsense, lacking the rhythm or rhyme we would expect from poetry or even rap music from the 1980s. But there is meaning here, so let’s do a quick line by line translation, best we can, of what Skrilla is up to here:
Shades on, l’m Boul Wit Da Glasses “Boul” is Philadelphia slang for “boy,” meaning he’s opening by self describing as the one who is wearing glasses, likely sunglasses.
Bro say er ‘cause he a savage My friend talks tough because he’s savage
So many dead opps, so many ashes (Brrt) Our enemies (opposition) have suffered casualties, many burned to ashes. “Brrt” is onomatopoeia for gunfire.
You ain’t catch that, I can’t pass this (Come here) If you can’t understand what I’m saying come in closer so I can explain
Shooter stay strapped, I don’t need mine He’s saying he has a shooter by his side which is why he isn’t carrying a gun at the moment.
Bro put belt right to they behind He’s saying his guys beat the enemies badly, as if with a belt (metaphor).
The way that switch brrt, I know he dyin’ (Oh my, oh my God) The automatic weapon fires so fast I know that the person being shot at isn’t going to survive.
6-7, I just bipped right on the highway (Bip, bip) There is it, and we’ll get to the meaning behind 6-7 in a minute, but the general idea here is that they speed off onto the highway.
Skrrt, uh (Bip, bip, bip) Sound effects of tires screeching and windows breaking
I just bipped right on the highway (Bip) Reiterating his highway escape
Trackhawk, mm, sittin’ in the driveway (Skrrt) He has a Jeep track hawk (high end SUV) sitting in the driveway
Uh, pull up, doot-doot, doo-doo-doo Gunfire sound effects again
So as you can see, even before getting into the meaning of 6-7, the entire song is about violence and killing people. The song was released officially in February 2025, after a soft release in December 2024, and first started coming into the public consciousness after basketball players who were 6’ 7” began to be associated with the song. Finally the 6-7 meme reached newfound popularity when a middle school kid named, “Mason” (I kid you not), was captured on video at a school event exclaiming 6-7 while making the hand gesture now associated with the expression. We should note that 67% is essentially 2/3, or twice the 33 1/3 number that is so popular with the Freemasons.
A good compilation of the meme’s rise to popularity can be found on Instagram here:
The Instagram reel makes the claim that 6-7 was a reference to 67th street in Philadelphia, but this is not true. Linguist Taylor Jones, a Philadelphia native with a specialty in African-American speech makes the case that 6-7 is in fact, a form of shorthand for the Philadelphia PD call signs indicating a dead body has been found. In the context of the rest of the lyrics, it is difficult to deny the connection. 6-7 is a death chant.
And, as the Instagram reel indicated, Mason, the ordinary suburban kid started to have dark and demonic memes made of him after becoming the 6-7 kid. I posit that this is no accident, it is the morphic resonance made flesh, the demonic coming to life.
And as if we needed further proof that 6-7 is in fact, an evil death chant, as it turns out, Skrilla is a devout practitioner of Santeria, a form of Caribbean witchcraft, and is on film discussing his activities, including animal sacrifices and the like.
To cap it off, the 6-7 meming reached a crescendo of sorts on the weekend of September 6-7, which was proclaimed by the Internet to be the first ever 6-7 weekend. And it was immediately thereafter that Charlie Kirk was shot and killed, on September 10. The full Philadelphia police code for a dead body found? 10-67.
To be abundantly clear, I am NOT suggesting that the 6-7 chant is what got Charlie Kirk was killed. But chanting things like that puts wind into the sails those who would be out to kill otherwise. In Butler Pennsylvania, a similar attempt on the life of Donald Trump failed, but here it succeeded, and I suspect that the meme energy behind 10-67 likely contributed to the mission’s success.
Let us now turn our attention to a set of twins who recently committed assisted suicide together:
A friend shared this article with me, feeling that there was something up with it. And while I’d never heard of the Kessler Twins before, I was very familiar with their chosen death date, November 17. So I decided to dig in.
The Kessler twins were vaudeville type performers from Germany, popular in the mid 20th century. So while I hadn’t heard of them, they would have been well known from the 1950s to 1970s.
Whenever investigating a story like this I like to start at the meanings of their names, which usually reveals a fair amount. Kessler is German for “kettle, or cauldron maker”. Cauldrons are used, of course, in witchcraft and in alchemy, where the “solve” portion of “solve et coagula” takes place. The twins were named Alice and Ellen, Alice meaning noble, and Ellen meaning torch bearer. So, noble torch bearer, makers of cauldrons. Reminiscent of Lucifer, the false light bringer.
The date on which they close to take their lives, November 17, was intimately familiar to me because it was my wedding anniversary date. It is for that reason that I was already aware that this date is the feast of Saint Elizabeth of Hungary, known as the Patron Saint of Brides. It was obviously an auspicious day for me to be married on, but what about the Kessler twins? Had they been married?
As it turns out, they had not. Neither woman had ever married. Strange indeed. Especially since they chose the date on which they would die together. So two unmarried women, identical twins, whose names have luciferian undertones, chose to end their lives on the feast day of the patron saint of brides. So how are we to interpret that?
Well, it would appear to be a death chant of a different sort, more of a ritual sigil against marriage itself. Across the western world, Germany included, where marriage rates are in steep decline and birth rates are lower than those needed to maintain population levels, it would seem to be deeply symbolic that these twins, unmarried and childless, should choose to end their lives together on the day that they chose. And that the media seemed prepped and primed to report on it, despite the fact that most people alive today wouldn’t know who these two women were or care in the least indicates, at least to yours truly, that this act was indeed something of a sigil, a media death chant.
In each of these cases, we could go further. We could point out that the 7 in 6-7 is evocative of Libra, the scales, which is in turn reminiscent of the hand gesture made when chanting 6-7, like weighing a decision, of a life hanging in the balance. Or we could point out that the twins are evocative of Gemini, of the myth of Castor and Pollux, alternating between life and death. But it’s really not necessary. Once you become accustomed to the manner in which semiotics play out around you, these things become second nature. Look up a quick reference here and there, and a clear picture begins to emerge. And once you see that picture, the effect it has on you begins to diminish, as well at the attempted manipulation. You won’t join in with the kids saying 6-7 because you’ll recognize what it is fairly quickly.
See the chant clearly, and you won’t echo it; answer it with prayer, and you drive it out.
