... From: Kronos Vol. IV No. 4 (Summer 1979) Home | Issue Contents The Photosphere: Is It the Top or the Bottom of the Phenomenon We Call the Sun?Ralph E. Juergens Copyright © 1979 by R. E. Juergens We cannot see inside the Sun. Although the interior is unquestionably ablaze with radiation, we can view it only indirectly; theory alone can light the way. On the outside, however, fairly direct observations can be relied upon for clues to the workings of our local star. If, as is almost universally accepted, the Sun is a thermonuclear engine whose primary concern on the outside is the radiation of excess energy ...

32. The Cosmology Of Tawantinsuyu [Journals] [Kronos]
... Contents The Cosmology Of Tawantinsuyu Jan N. Sammer See also Note (1 ). The traditional view of Inca religion was built chiefly on the writings of Garcilaso de la Vega, Bartolome de las Casas, and Pedro Cieza de Leon. In the Commentarios Reales of the hispanicized Inca nobleman, Garcilaso de la Vega, the cult of the Sun is portrayed as supreme. The chief temple in Cuzco, the Coricancha, is said to have been dedicated to the Sun (II.9 ) with similar Sun-temples scattered throughout the provinces; the Inca rulers allegedly prided themselves on being descended from the Sun. The sacrifices to the Sun are described at length (II.8 ) ...

... , February 15,1890, p. 183. 9. Same authorities. SYMBOLISM AND INTERPRETATION. Many theories have been presented concerning the symbolism of the, Swastika, its relation to ancient deities and its representation of certain qualities. In the estimation of certain writers it bas been respectively the emblem of Zeus, of Baal, of the sun, of the sun-god, of the sun-chariot of Api the fire-god, of Indra the rain-god, of the sky, the skygod, and finally the deity of all deities, the great God, the Maker and Ruler of the Universe. It has also been held to symbolize light or the god of light, of the forked lightning ...

From: Aeon III:2 (May 1993) Home | Issue Contents Suns and Planets in Neolithic Rock Art Ev Cochrane If you have had your attention directed to the novelties of thought in your own lifetime, you will have observed that almost all really new ideas have a certain aspect of foolishness when they are first presented.- A. Whitehead In science, unlike religion, the great revelations lie in the future; the coming generations are the authorities; and the pupil is greater than the master, if he has the gift to see things anew. All fruitful ideas have been conceived in the minds of non-conformists, for whom the known is still the unknown, ...

35. RECONSTRUCTING THE SATURN MYTH [Journals] [Aeon]
... of the enclosure of life." And many thousands of miles away the Maori remember Saturn as "the encircled one." (4 ) The connection of this familiar image to ancient ideas about Saturn is an anomaly deserving investigation. From the beginnings of modern research, the antiquaries have assumed the pictograph to be a universal symbol of the Sun. Did the ancients, then, employ the same pictograph for two entirely different celestial powers? Here is what I found: There is indeed a worldwide association of the sign with the "sun," but numerous myths claim that the sun god is not the Sun we know today, and several different traditions explicitly identify the ancient ...

... of the events. The sea was torn apart. The people attributed this act to the intervention of their leader; he lifted his staff over the waters and they divided. Of course, there is no person who can do this, and no staff with which it can be done. Likewise in the case of Joshua who commanded the sun and the moon to halt in their movements. Because the scientific mind cannot bel ieve that a man can make the sun and the moon to stand still, it disbelieves also the alleged event. What contributes to this is the fact that least of all do we place faith in books that demand belief, religious books, though we ...

37. The Unworkable Polar Saturn [Journals] [Aeon]
... dismissing the idea out of hand, it will be in many ways instructive to examine it from the inside. Only in this way can all of the criteria which preclude a polar Saturn be brought into view. 2. The Small Coplanar Orbit The Moon now orbits Earth in virtually the same plane as that in which the Earth orbits the Sun. The lunar orbit can thus be considered coplanar. In a small coplanar orbit, Saturn could be Earth's distance from the Sun, while Earth could be so close to Saturn as to orbit it in a day. Giving Saturn a slightly larger mass than now, of 97 Earth masses, because of an alleged Saturnian flare, the ...

... plain, engaged in their worship at sunrise, praying to the "Lord of the two Horizons." The rising (and setting) of stars we will consider later; it is best to begin with those observations about which there is the least question. In the very early observations that were made in Egypt and Babylonia, when the sun was considered to be a god who every morning got into his boat and floated across space, there was no particular reason for considering the amplitude at which the supposed boat left or approached the horizon But a few centuries showed that this rising or setting of the sun in widely varying amplitudes at different parts of the year depended upon a ...

... order of planetary motion. Furthermore, gravitational theory is based on the supposition that interplanetary space is empty. Velikovsky properly challenged these assumptions in 1950 in Worlds in Collision, where he stated, "The accepted celestial mechanics notwithstanding, the many calculations that have been carried out to many decimal places or verified by celestial motions stand only if the sun, the source of light and warmth and other radiation. . . is as a whole an electrically neutral body, and the planets in their orbits are neutral bodies. "Fundamental principles in celestial mechanics. . .must come into question if the sun possesses a charge sufficient to influence the planets in their orbits and the comets in ...
