The music video “Marry the Night” tells the story of Lady Gaga’s rise to fame in the

entertainment industry. Oddly enough, her “journey” begins with her describing the

symptoms of a traumabased mind control victim. Is there a deeper meaning to this

video? We’ll look at the symbolism of “Marry the Night” and its underlying occult

meaning.

Lady Gaga generated a great buzz among her fans when she announced that the video to

Marry the Night would reveal a part of her past. Did her fans expect the video to begin with

a traumatized Gaga inside a psychiatric ward with a bunch of lobotomized girls? Probably

not. But from that strange starting point, the video proceeds to depict Gaga’s rise to super

stardom. How does all of that tie in together? To most, this doesn’t really make any sense.

However, to those who understand the relation between traumabased mind control and

the entertainment industry, it makes perfect sense. While many of her previous videos

referred to mind control in subtle and symbolic ways (see previous articles on Vigilant

Citizen), Marry the Night takes it a step further, pretty much spelling it out. At the very

start of the video, Gaga’s monologue defines in unequivocal terms the plight of a mind

control victim. Despite her hardships, she says, she is determined to make it in the music

MUSIC BUSINESS

From Mind Control to Superstardom: The Meaning ofLady Gaga’s “Marry the Night”

business and is ready to do whatever it takes to reach her goal. She therefore “marries the

night”, an expression that has a profound meaning.

The video is Lady Gaga’s directorial debut and, according MTV.com it is basically a “big

thank you” to Interscope Records – the record label that signed her. This is definitely true

but the video also says thanks to those behind her record label: the “Night” that she

married. Let’s look at the video’s most important scenes.

In the Psychiatric Ward

The intro of the video shows Gaga as the patient of some kind of psychiatric ward. While

laying on a stretcher that is pushed by two nurses, Gaga describes the way she perceives

reality. Affected by a violent trauma, Gaga escapes into her own world to be able to go on.

The mental dissociation that is described by Gaga is in direct accordance with the purpose

of traumabased mind control, the basis of Monarch Programming (see the article Origins

and Techniques of Monarch Mind Control for more information). Monarch programming

uses various methods, including violence, drugs and abuse to induce violent trauma and

cause the victim to dissociate – a natural defense mechanism of the brain. The fracture of

the personality that results from the process is then exploited by the mindcontrol handlers

to program within the subject’s mind new “alter” personalities. This is also described in

Marry the Night, as Gaga creates a new persona to obtain superstardom.

The process also causes the victims to have huge memory gaps when recollecting the past.

In during the intro of the video, Gaga describes how a victim of Monarch programming

would perceive reality:

“When I look back on my life, it’s not that I don’t want to see things exactly as

they happen, it’s just that I prefer to remember them in an artistic way. And

truthfully, the lie of it all is much more honest, because I invented it. Clinical

psychology arguably tells us that trauma is the ultimate killer. Memories are not

recycled like atoms and particles in quantum physics. They can be lost forever. It

sort of like my past is an unfinished painting and, as the artist of that painting, I

must fill in all the ugly holes and make it beautiful again. Its not that I’ve been

dishonest, it’s just that I loathe reality.”

Gaga basically says that she went through trauma that was so horrific that it caused her to

dissociate from reality. Since she cannot cope with the true nature of her existence, her

psyche has “filled in all the ugly holes” and created an innerworld where she can escape

and survive mentally. This is exactly what happens with MK slaves, who, while dissociated

into their fantasy world, get programmed by their handlers. Gaga then proceeds to describe

how her dissociated mind perceives her surroundings.

The  nurses wear  their  caps  in  a  “stylish”  way  because we  are

seeing Gaga’s dissociated perception of reality

In Gaga’s reality, the nurses are wearing “next season Calvin Klein” and she is wearing

Giuseppe Zanotti shoes. Also, the nurses’ caps are tilted to the side like Parisian berets

because she thinks “it’s romantic”. So what we are seeing is not reality, but Gaga’s

perception of reality that has been distorted by trauma. Since she loves fashion, the fashion

world is integrated in her mental escape to make reality bearable. The premise of this scene

is very similar to the movie Sucker Punch (analyzed in the article entitled “Sucker Punch”

or How to Make Monarch Mind Control Sexy), where a young patient of a psychiatric

hospital dissociates from reality before getting a lobotomy.

Lobotomies also appear to be happening in Gaga’s ward. As she arrives in her room, we

notice that it is filled with braindead girls with bandages around their heads. This hints

that Gaga’s “institution” deals with mind controlrelated stuff.

On her bed, Gaga speaks with a nurse – who also happened to have delivered her when she

was born. This is rather odd (for many reasons) but confirms that Gaga’s existence has been

under tight control since her youth. Is this bit part “autobiographical” or fiction? Hard to

say.

Something happened to her back

When Gaga turns around, her back reveals that something awful happened to her. The

nurse tells her “No intimacy for two weeks”, which hints to the fact that the trauma might of

been of a sexual origin. She nevertheless tells the nurse that “she’ll make it” and that “she’ll

be a star” because she has “nothing left to lose”. In other words, the trauma she suffered left

her lost and empty but that hole can be filled by her two obsessions: fame and success.

The Metamorphosis

After the depressing hospital scene, Gaga is in her apartment when she gets a phone call

from her manager announcing that she’s been dropped by her label. She replies “But I’m an

artist!”, as if artistic integrity is the top priority of record labels. She then loses it and goes

into a topless frenzy involving Cheerios and smudged makeup. The messy scene is

juxtaposed with images of Gaga gracefully dancing ballet – as a “true artist”. The two scenes

are diametrically opposed yet have noticeable similarities. The ballet scene ends with Gaga

topless and crying, indicating that both scenes happen at the same time: One in real life and

one in her head.

Gaga  topless  and  crying,  like  in  the  apartment  scene.  This

represents how Gaga perceives herself, yet she is rejected by her

label.

In the next scene, Gaga is in the the tub, accomplishing a significant task: Dying her hair

blonde. Her new alterpersona is being created, the one that will become a pop star.

The  transformation  from Stefani  Germanotta  to  the  alter  Lady

Gaga  symbolized  by  the  dying  of  her  hair  blonde.  She  is

beginning to do what is needed to make it in the entertainment

industry – A shallow alterego that will do what  is  required by

record labels. While she’s doing this, she’s humming “Marry the

Night”, something she is actually beginning to accomplish here.

Once the transformation is complete, Gaga says goodbye to her ballet company (were they

the ones that were lobotomized earlier?). The “true artist” is gone and the superficial diva is

born. The camera stays on the art of the room for several seconds, probably due to its

symbolic meaning. (the scene was shot at Snug Harbor Cultural Center in NY).

As the camera pans, we see several interesting things. At the top

of this shot is Poseidon, the king of Atlantis with his trademark

pitchfork. Although he was probably painted there because the

shooting  location  is  a  harbor  (a  nautical  place),  the  god  takes

another  meaning  in  the  context  of  the  video:  Poseidon  is  an

important figure in the occult elite’s mythology as he is the king

of Atlantis, the place where the Mysteries have originated from.

Under Poseidon is a lighted star similar to the Blazing star found

in Masonic lodges. Underneath the star is written “The Cross is

My Anchor”  –  a  Christian  saying  –  but  in  reverse.  I  am pretty

that the phrase is not actually written in reverse in Snug Harbor.

Why was the image flipped? Does this represent Gaga’s spiritual

shift as she “Marries the Night”?

The camera then pans to the room’s oculus (a circular window at the apex of  a dome) with

a sun as the pupil of the “eye”. The oculus transitions into a full moon. As the scene turns

from day to night, Stefani disappears and Lady Gaga emerges.

Marrying the Night

Most music sites say that Marry the Night is about going out, partying and having fun in

New York city. But, as it is often the case with Gaga’s works, the symbolism and the imagery

of the video hints at a deeper, more ritualistic meaning. As we have seen above, Gaga is

passionately fueled by her drive for success and she appears to realize that the key to make

it in the industry is: Initiation. Or, in more sinister terms, selling one’s soul.

In the context of the video, the expression “marry the night“ takes an almost metaphysical

connotation. Marriage is a religious ritual, a binding association between two people. What

does it mean when one marries the night? It can mean associating with people who deal in

the dark: the occult elite (those we call the Illuminati). It can also signify embracing one’s

own flaws and “dark side”. In all cases, there is a definite sense of “rebirth” in the process.

And, that’s what we see: A blond Lady Gaga (the alter of Stefani Germanotta) emerges from

a TransAm dressed in black.

Gaga then goes to “Pop Star Training”. No more ballet, it’s all about doing cool, hip, music

video choreography now.

“Yeah, that’s how you need to dance if you want to be on MTV.

Go back there and keep doing it”.

Once her training is complete, Gaga is ready for the “big time”. She becomes a glamorous

diva and dances what is almost a parody of MTV music videos.

With her cool shades and fashionable backup dancers, Gaga now

has what it takes to be a product of the music industry.

We are then treated to a video montage of Gaga living the highs and lows of stardom,

complete with gigantic hats, bathroom stall door slamming action and emotionally

instability. However, all of this crap pays off: Gaga gets signed to record label.

When you “Marry the Night” (or sell your soul), the doors of the

music business magically open. Gaga gets an appointment with

Interscope Records.

The video ends with an odd and ominous scene:

In this fiery scene Gaga is dressed in red – the color symbolic of

sacrifice and initiation. She is wearing a Paco Rabane hat that is

fashionable  and  symbolic:  it  completely  hides  her  head.  It  is

owned by the Night now.

Gaga’s live performance on X Factor also exploited the theme of headlessness in a rather

graphic way.

The  setting  of  Gaga’s  performance  on  X  Factor  emphasizes  on  the

underlying occult meaning of the song. The full moon, the torches and

the religious imagery play on the spiritual significance of “marrying the

night”.  Gaga  began  the  song  with  her  head  literally  chopped  off,  a

perfect way to describe what figuratively happens to industry pawns.

 

In Conclusion

Although many describe Marry the Night as a “new direction” for Lady Gaga, the video still

exploits her favorite theme: The price of fame. The intro of the video is basically a

introductory course in traumabased mind control, where she describes how dissociating

allows her to cope with reality. As the artistic brunette turns into a blonde diva, the Lady

Gaga alterego is created, one that will do what is required to make it in the music business.

The most important requirement is “marrying the night”, which is a poetic way of saying

“selling one’s soul” and associating with the dark side. Gaga had to deny everything she

previously was to become a brand new person. Therefore, beneath the fashion and the

dancing, the video hides an underlying ritualistic theme, as the death of a ballet dancer

gives birth to an MTV pop star. From the broken girl who had nothing to lose to

international superstar, it took a marriage with the dark side to turn things around. But at

what cost? The final scene of the video, complete with hellish fire and a sacrificial red dress

tells volumes.

In the grand scheme of things, despite her apparent originality, Gaga brings to the youth a

message that is very similar to other pop stars: “Mind control is cool, everyone is doing it”

and “Submit to the dark side and you’ll get what you want”. But when things get scary and

the night becomes an abusive husband, asking for divorce won’t be an option. Ask Princess

Diana.

For example, no back spine.. that is a saying in Dutch so everyone should notice that.

But her true fans and other people who are unaware think it is just fashion and expression.

Odd actually that she shows us all the details about the price of fame.

It is really strange that they are showing us these things.

I don't understand why people still love her so much, what does she have to offer?

She doesn't teach the youth any good things.

If Britney would tell us she sniffed coke and did drugs a lot. Was a lesbian/bi

Everyone would gossip all day and it would be so bad.

Gaga is getting away with all of it. The companies want a person who will be bad..

Do everything they want, so they can come into our minds.

We are all programmed, yet we believe the true artist are not. Because they acts so normal

And they talk and laugh,, funny that Gaga is showing the otherside of it.

As soon as I saw this video, I told myself: Damn, this VC dude was right all along! The first part is 100% aboutmind control. Can't be more blatant than this.

· 174 weeks ago

I watched this yesterday and came to the same conclusions. The video reads like a book. I don't know whether it'ssupposed to be a wake up call or as you've concluded promoting the subject matters as cool and desirable. Eitherway it's very sad to know this type of thing is indeed reality because at this point, it's hard to deny.

· 174 weeks ago

The parts in the video where she was putting the hair dye on, lieing on the bed and pouring cereal over herself,seemed too real to be scripted, it's like she has adopted the alter personality of a child in those particular bits. I'mnot sure if anyone else thought this too, it's really quite disturbing! It seems she has had some programming ofsome sort.

Thanks to you too, since you let us know we still have to fight to enlighten the stupidized ones.

These symbols and hidden meanings are just to blatantly obvious to be ignored or shoved off as artisticexpression

· 174 weeks ago

I have one Question, you say Lady Gaga has been brain washed and they are now using mind control on here (orthere is a possibility that they are). Now if they are controlling her, I am sure Gaga (in a normal state of mind)would resent this, and tell the media. But because they are controlling her, they would most likely be a big part ofher directorial decisions. Why would they let her (or even make her) put so many references to the Illuminati andmind control in her video?

It seems weird that it is so blatant in symbolism. Of course it makes sense that MTV ignores all the symbolism.They don't want us to know this so they can keep conditioning us. But I wonder, if she is making it so blantant,how much really happened to her (not literally) and how much of it she just wants us to believe happened to her.Obviously she gets a lot of attention for this stuff. Now I am going to start thinking about happier things. Hervideo gave me the creeps.

· 174 weeks ago

It was kind of like throwing a temper tantrum or something. But way creepier, because a child would not writhearound like that half naked. And looked like she very much had a screw loose. I just don't get why people want tobe entertained by this. And then when the music finally started, I just thought people will think of this as somekind of power anthem, you can't keep me down! But that is false, because she is so far down it is not funny!

· 174 weeks ago

When I first saw the video and her "pathetique" I knew there was a much more sinister meaning behind it allinvolving rituals and mind control, but there were also a lot of things that I missed (her being "spineless") or that Iwasn't quite sure about. Great breakdown of the video!

· 174 weeks ago

Thank you so much VC for posting this! Me and my sister come to your site all the time and discuss this stuff forhours! If I had watched this video without an explanation, I would be able to tell that there was some darksymbolism there, but I would never be able to break it all down and fully understand it. Thank you so much forhelping those who "really want to know" what all this stuff means...

· 174 weeks ago

I just don't get why would the occult elite in control of the media let something like this out. It seems to me thatGaga is quickly rising towards her next crash and it won't be pretty. Now that she's got spotlights pointed at heranything that happens will become gossip. I wonder if she is indeed trying to sell it as something nice or if she'strying to double-cross them by sending wake-up calls to the fans.

Also, please notice - she combines water (rain) and fire together, the Sun and the Moon, Gaga's doing alchemicalwork - coniunctio.

· 174 weeks ago

Let me clarify:

The term "sell one's soul" is definitely not literal when it comes to Illuminati (of course); it must mean "sacrificeyourself", "subject yourself to them", "marry the night :-P" or anything that shows that a person was voluntary todo it.

Therefore, if Gaga was part of this since birth, it is not her choice and she's a slave ever since.

Then,

how did she "marry the night"?
