... order, but the process as it is narrated in the Popol Vuh is explicitly planetary. And thus they took their leave, Having completely conquered all of Hell. And then they walked back up Here amid the light, And at once They walked into the sky. And one is the sun, And the other of them is the moon. Then it grew light in the sky, And on the earth. They are still in the sky. [48] In other words, the story of Hunter and Jaguar Deer, which parallels the story of Hamlet, is said by the Popol Vuh, the holy book of the Quiche Maya, to be a fictionalised account ...
... of almost complete equilibrium and rest relative to each other, that is to say, that a certain point of the Earth's crust remains over a certain point of the terrestrial core. The capture, and still more the eventual close approach, of a satellite naturally upsets this equilibrium, or state of relative rest. The gravitational influence of our Moon, for instance, causes a tide' not only in the hydrosphere, that is, the terrestrial oceans, amounting already to an average of about six feet in mid-ocean in tropical latitudes, as well as in the atmosphere, where at present it is almost imperceptible, but also in the lithosphere, resulting in a raising of the ...
533. The Catastrophic Substructure of Shakespeare's Antony and Cleopatra (Part I) [Journals] [Kronos]
... 4 .30-32. We think of the evidence Dr. Velikovsky presents in Earth in Upheaval of rock fissures choked with massed broken fragments of bones.(4 ) She herself, if considered a heavenly body consistent with the major personages, is drawn from Octavius to Antony, and then back to Octavius again, as if she represented the Moon, and her final return to the orbit of Earth is surprisingly tranquil, with no accompanying army, no troop of horses, no noise or debris, as may have been the case earlier. Nay, the dust Should have ascended to the roof of heaven, Raised by your populous troops. 3 .6 .48-50. Later ...
534. Some Religious Themes in the Light of Velikovsky et alia [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... a 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 ...
535. One Who Read And One Who Didn't. File I (Stargazers and Gravediggers) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Stargazers]
... I replied to Shapley eight days later: There is nothing I would like better than to substantiate my statements of April 15th and 17th by arguments. In the first two files of my MS I show that in the second and first millennia before this era changes occurred in the constitution of the solar system and in the position of Earth, Moon, Venus and Mars. Presented in these few words my conclusions may appear strange, but they are built upon an extensive material from diverse fields of science. I have this material ready for you if you would like to read it. Speaking to you on April 13th, I understood you wished some other scholar to read the manuscript ...
536. The Legends of the Jews: Volume I - Adam [Books]
... Israel who was taken into special consideration at the time man was made. All other creatures were instructed to change their nature, if Israel should ever need their help in the course of his history. The sea was ordered to divide before Moses, and the heavens to give ear to the words of the leader; the sun and the moon were bidden to stand still before Joshua, the ravens to feed Elijah, the fire to spare the three youths in the furnace, the lion to do no harm to Daniel, the fish to spew forth Jonah, and the heavens to open before Ezekiel.[9 ] In His modesty, God took counsel with the angels, ...
537. The Cosmic Double Helix [Journals] [Aeon]
... they are provided. The Egyptians also maintain that the attributes of the caduceus illustrate the generation, or genesis' as it is called, of mankind; for they say that four deities are present to preside over a man's birth: his Genius, Fortune, Love, and Necessity. By the first two they understand the sun and the moon; the kiss of the serpents is the symbol of Love; and the knot is the symbol of Necessity .. . the coiled bodies of the serpents have been specially chosen, as illustrating the serpentine course of each of the two stars." [47] As Macrobius reveals, the caduceus is often topped by two extensions evoking ...
538. Meteorite Impacts of Geological Significance: A Human Perspective [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... ] in reviewing basic mechanisms of geotectonic import. Then from the field research of petroleum geology comes a careful suggestion of a link between fossil craters and oil.[7 ] The diversity of these phenomena and their dispersion in recent geological time do not appear to match the rather static appearance of Earth's closest planetary neighbors. Mercury, Venus, Moon, Mars, and the moonlets of Mars do provide mute evidence of crater forming collisions, but the age-dating of the lunar rocks entrenches the belief that truly catastrophic collisions are restricted to the first eon of planetary history. There is growing evidence that this cannot be so. Up through 1949 only 12 geological structures were recognized as meteorite craters ...
539. Failure of a Concept? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... somehow define the date of the Libyan Dynasty, one must take a hard look at the evidence for this link. In Worlds in Collision (II, i: "Amos") Velikovsky refers to a severe flood* during the days of Osorkon II. Elsewhere he points to a "remarkable prodigy of uncertain nature somehow connected with the Moon" and a calendrical reform, in a text of Shoshenk III that is notoriously difficult to interpret (II, viii: "The Reforming of the Calendar"). Third, there is the shadow clock of Fayyûm that apparently defies a uniformitarian explanation (II, vii: "The Shadow Clock"), and Marx adds the ...
540. The Saturn Myth: A Tentative Physical Model [Journals] [Aeon]
... . This difference balanced the net repulsion component in each respective orbital plane. 6. The Golden Age Earth was imperceptibly moved toward Helios by the continued shrinking of the proto-Jovian orbits. The gas cloud, largely hydrogen and helium, was transparent to a degree only slightly decreasing insolation from what otherwise it would have been. The huge stationary "moons"- the proto-Jovian giants- reradiated enough energy to make up for that absorbed by the gas cloud. The cloud itself acted as a slight heat-retainer for Earth. Climate was stabilized by the effects of the interplanetary wind-jet. Proto-Saturn turned, wheel-like, near the north polar zenith. With each planet's rotation prograde, their relative rotations were ...
