... heaven. But paradoxically, they also declare that he resided on earth as a great king. He was the father both of gods and men. This dual character of the great father has been the subject of a centuries-long, but unresolved debate. Was he a living ancestor subsequently exaggerated into a cosmic divinity? Or was he originally a celestial god whom later myths reduced to human proportions? For an explanation of the great father researchers look to such varied powers as the solar orb, an esteemed tribal chief, or an abstract "vegetation cycle." Almost uniformly ignored is the connection of the primordial man-god with the actual planet Saturn- even though it is precisely the latter ...
82. The Reflective Canopy Model and the Mytho-historical Record [Journals] [Aeon]
... Vail's staunchest supporters, has published numerous articles on the subject in his recently defunct periodical, Stonehenge Viewpoint. (5 ) There, one can not only read about this firmament, or canopy, but also its reflective properties, the aspect of the theory that most appealed to Zysman. (6 ) He thus found himself wondering whether the celestial apparition that the mytho-historical record alludes to- the sun of night and its appendages- could have been the reflected image of some terrestrial object on the mirror-surface of the sky rather than the planets which other scholars had vouched for. And, given that this reflective canopy was situated high enough above the surface of the Earth- four Earth-radii ...
83. The Saturn Thesis [Journals] [Aeon]
... Examples would include Victor Clube and William Napier, (3 ) Fred Hoyle, and the Australian astronomer Duncan Steele, all of whom have resorted to references in myth to substantiate the ancient experience of cosmic catastrophe. Even Carl Sagan and Nancy Dru-yan, (4 ) notice the prevalence of an ancient symbol, the swastika, and propose a celestial origin for the symbol. It was, according to them, a rotating comet spewing streams of gas into surrounding space. At our symposium in November of 1994, I asked the astronomer Tom Van Flandern if he agreed with this statement: that there is considerable evidence to suggest that ancient civilizations may have arisen in the shadow of celestial ...
84. Senmut and Phaeton [Journals] [SIS Review]
... .C ., formerly in the Royal Navy and for many years a marine navigator. The "astronomically objectionable" Senmut ceiling is here inspected: with a new identification of some of the constellations, it is found to give strong support for a past inversion of the earth's axis. It is interpreted, moreover, as pointing to a celestial spectacle of such religious significance that it was mythologised and enshrined in permanent record on Egyptian monuments. Students of Dr Velikovsky's Worlds in Collision will be aware that he cites the astronomical ceiling decoration of the tomb of Senmut, architect to Queen Hatshepshut of Egypt, as part of the evidence that the world was at some time "upside down ...
... the "Arrow-Star" from Sumer, as well as "Tishtriya," the arrow from Ancient Iranit is shot from a bow built up by stars of Argo and Canis Major (Sumerian: mulBAN). The very same bow is to be found in the Chinese sphere , but there the arrow is shorter and aims at Sirius, the celestial Jackal, whereas the same Egyptian arrow is aimed at the star on the head of the Sothis Cow, as depicted in the so-called "Round Zodiac" of Dendera Sirius again. In India, Sirius is the archer himself (Tishiya), and his arrow is represented by the stars of Orion's Belt. And about all of them ...
86. The Enclosed Sun-Cross [Books]
... as I shall now attempt to show. THE CROSSROADS From Saturn, the central sun, flowed four primary paths of light. In the myths these appear as four rivers, four winds, four streams of arrows, or four children, assistants, or light-spirits bearing the Saturnian seed (the life elements) through the four quarters of the celestial kingdom. The sun-cross and enclosed sun-cross , depicting the four life-bearing streams, thus serve as universal signs of the Holy Land. The modern world is accustomed to think of "the four quarters" in terrestrial terms. Today we conceive north, east, west, and south only in relationship to our own position or to a fixed ...
87. The Nature and Origin of Comets and the Evolution of Celestial Bodies (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... From: Kronos Vol. IX No. 1 (Fall 1983) Home | Issue Contents The Nature and Origin of Comets and the Evolution of Celestial Bodies (Part I)J. M. McCANNEY Copyright (c ) 1981 & 1983 by J. M. McCanney ABSTRACT: This paper provides an alternate theory for comet behavior and shows comets to be planetary, lunar, and asteroidal bodies in their formative stages. It demonstrates that tail matter is attracted towards an asteroidal comet nucleus by strong electrical forces. Additionally, two charging mechanisms are identified, both of which produce a net negative charge on the comet nucleus. This is supported by data from recent space probes. ...
88. Cataclysms of the Earth [Books]
... The spectroscope intercepts the light rays as they return to space from which they originally came, and identifies the material by the wave lengths of its light rays. The chemical elements of the materials in rocks which were once leaves and vegetation, can be identified by the light rays that created them; we thus assume that they all came from celestial space in the form of light rays, and that the atoms of the light rays became frozen or occluded and changed into the atoms in the materials of the earth. The process is called photosynthesis-the synthesis of chemical compounds effected with the aid of radiant energy, especially light, and specifically, the formation of carbohydrates in the chlorophyll containing ...
