352. Some Religious Themes in the Light of Velikovsky et alia [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Trinity. Trinity In the Christian faith we are told that God is three persons in one: Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This idea was supposedly introduced in New Testament times(2 ) and yet it is already present in other faiths: Shiva, Vishnu and Krishna; Osiris, Horus and Isis; and the Sun, Moon Venus Trinity of the Babylonians. I have long had the idea at the back of my mind that each figure of the Trinity might be planetary, and this prompted me to start researching this field after reading Elizabeth Gaudry's letter in WORKSHOP 3:4 , p. 30-1. As I have already stated, I was able to identify Saturn ...
353. Matters Arising [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... ) J. Abery has written in to suggest that there shouldn't be too much trouble fitting Apollo into Velikovskian concepts as a sun god. He was credited with the slaughter of the monster or serpent Python,(3 ) otherwise identified with the serpent Typhon killed by Zeus.(4 ) Typhon was associated with the visit to Earth of Venus. "If the encounter with the proto-planet Venus caused years of darkness on Earth, the first few days being utter darkness and accompanied by appalling catastrophes, then it is not difficult to see that temples would be set up in order to sacrifice not only to Athena (whose advent had caused it all), but also to a ...

... and astronomy, between the fourth and first millennia B.C . The planets were identified and, unlike the fixed stars which were compared to calmly grazing sheep, planets were called bibba, ' or goats. ' Each planet was given its own special name, except Mercury which was called bibbu, that is, "planet". Venus was called Dilbat; Jupiter, Mulubabbar (" star-sun"); Mars, Zalbatanu; and Saturn, Kaimanu. It was at that time that the movements of the planets began to be observed. Specifically, texts devoted to the movements of Venus are extant. [1 ] An actual period of a planet's revolution around the Sun ...

... follow Immanuel Velikovsky's interpretation of them as being names of planets (25). It is known that in the ancient Near East the same name was sometimes used for a planet and a fixed star or constellation - for instance, in Babylonian texts the constellation Medusa "is called Dilbat and Ninsianna, both ordinary names for Ishtar as the planet Venus" (26). It would also seem that the same goddess Ishtar/Inanna was identified with the star Sirius and the constellation Virgo as well as her well-known identification with the planet Venus (27). If the Hebrews had a similar custom it is easy to see how confusion could have set in and misled later translators into ...
356. Letters to C&C Workshop 2004:4 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... destruction date of Sennacherib's army in 687 BC. However, I believe the reliance on a catastrophic period of 60 years is wrong and thus too the inferred 15 year Martian cycle. Roger Ashton and myself, in a series of articles in Aeon, have drawn attention to various ancient calendars that posit a synchronicity of orbital relationships between Earth, Venus and Mars. Whilst it can be demonstrated that the current orbits of Earth and Mars indicate a synodic relationship every 15 years (thus sixty years also), there is no corresponding relationship involving Venus. The current Venus cycle demands an eight-year phase, something that is non-existent in a sixty year period. The following information demands that Fairlie-Clarke ...

... the Rescue C. Leroy Ellenberger There is none so blind as they that won't see.- Jonathan Swift, "Polite Conversation" The man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest.- Paul Simon, "The Boxer" If undue reliance is placed on the mythological rather than the scientific evidence, the absurd speculations about Venus [and Mars] can at least be understood if not forgiven.- Victor Clube and Bill Napier, The Cosmic Serpent My critical analysis of the Mars-Earth Wars Theory of Donald W. Patten in C&AH, XII:1 was followed by responses from Patten and Ron Hatch. Even with twenty years' involvement with the Velikovsky ...
358. A Model of the Polar Configuration [Articles]
... . And in that case this would require a certain alignment of the earth's polar axis, which would be a system which would mitigate against causing the axis to rotate because of the centrifugal forces and the requirements of a spinning object to maintain its polar alignment. It should have a lighted crescent, and he's talked about that fairly long. Venus and Mars have to be aligned concentrically, with Venus in a position closer to Saturn, and Mars closer to earth, and Jupiter not visible. Jupiter does not enter into his mythological model at all. And then he has the mountain-like apparition, and I have nothing much to say about that. My competence has to do with ...

(Pyramid Texts, Utterance 20) [2 ] Introduction "the mouth-sign... used to write the word for mouth... very few words are actually written in this way." [3 ] As Ev Cochrane asserted, in his Venus and the Celestial Here-after: "If there is one thing that stands out about the Egyptian civili-zation, it is an obsessive preoccupation with death and the means whereby immortality might be achieved." [4 ] This preoccupation was due to the beliefs of the Egyptian elite who, from the earliest recorded times, seemed far more concerned with ...
360. Letters [Journals] [SIS Review]
... . Baillie's scheme suggests a revision of history be confined to 50 years, roughly. It may be possible to expand this by 30 years or so if Irish C14 levels prove to be fallible in the timescale suggested by Bernard. A major revision of history is probably unnecessary. Phillip Clapham, Hazlemere, Bucks A 30 day month in the Venus Tablets?John Weir's claim in C&CW 1996:2 (p . 56) that It is only an assumption that the Venus tablet record is based on months of 30 days' is scarcely sustainable. On five occasions (Events 3, 6, 8A, 11 & 21A), Venus is listed as disappearing in one ...
