... From: Aeon V:4 (July 1999) Home | Issue Contents Advertisement Martian Metamorphoses: The Planet Mars in Ancient Myth and Religion by Ev Cochrane STILL AVAILABLE Earthlings have long been fascinated by the planet Mars. Well before modern science fiction speculated about advanced civilizations upon Mars and the dire threat of invasion by little green men, the red planet was regarded as a malevolent agent of war, pestilence, and apocalyptic disaster. In an attempt to appease the capricious planet-god, various ancient cultures offered it human sacrifices. What is there about this distant speck of light in the night sky that could have inspired such bizarre conceptions culminating in ritual murder? And how do we account ...

52. Mons Veneris [Journals] [Aeon]
... this peculiar feature of Sumerian cosmology? For the fact is that, under the current arrangement of the solar system, Mars does not appear to rise in the east with the Sun. Indeed, the Sun and Mars are never visible together in the sky during those relatively rare occasions when Mars moves in close proximity to the Sun, the red planet only coming into view after the Sun has gone down. Moreover, when Mars does appear in the east, it is always faint and typically invisible, being then on the other side of the Sun and thus hundreds of millions of miles away from terrestrial viewers. (47) Thus, while the passages invoking Venus/Inanna ...

53. The Garden of Venus [Journals] [Aeon]
... "rejuvenated" as a result of his ascent up the polar column and "reunion" with Venus. [55] Insofar as the latter planet was identified with the great mother goddess, the Martian hero was viewed as having returned to the celestial lap or "breast" as an infant. A complementary and equally widespread interpretation viewed the red planet as an embryo reinserted within the "womb" of Venus (see Figure Six), whereupon it awaited "rebirth." Insofar as the celestial spring was centered upon Venus, the hero's ascent and reunion with Venus necessarily involved his reaching the celestial spring and experiencing "rejuvenation." A universal theme associated with the warrior-hero finds ...

54. The Eye Goddess [Journals] [Aeon]
... Age. Accompanying Saturn/Re at the time, and also located along the same shared polar axis, were the planets Venus and Mars, the latter being closer to Earth. Terrestrial viewers looking to the northern heavens- the region associated by the ancient Egyptians with Re, Horus, Hathor, and the Duat- would have seen the red planet nestled squarely within the larger Venus (see cover illustration). The Egyptian name Hathor- "House of Horus"- likely commemorates this remarkable situation. Fig.4 : The "eye idols" discovered by Max Mallowan at Tel Brak. (Illustrations after Mallowan.) The Eye Goddess In 1937, while excavating at an ...

55. Falling Star [Journals] [Aeon]
... Weinfeld has documented: "Reseph, Nergal, and Apollo are connected with heavenly bodies, mainly with falling stars (meteors)." [42] "Mainly connected with falling stars (meteors)"? Nergal, like Reseph, is mainly connected with the planet Mars. At this point an interesting question arises: Why would the red planet be compared to a falling star or meteor? O Note [1 ] G.

... , these two examples (and there might be more) do serve to stress the link. 3. MARS Despite what was stated in the first section of this paper, there exists some evidence which seems to hint that Adam, which name means "ruddy and/or red," (39) was actually the personification of the red planet Mars rather than Saturn. Later confusion with the primeval Saturn would have arisen because Mars had been part and parcel of the Saturnian configuration. Thus, if Zecharia Sitchin is correct, the Canaanite El, who was Saturn, was termed Ab Adam, i.e . the "Father of Adam," in texts from Ugarit ...

... by. The serpent is shown coiled around the base of the navel stone with the quiver and bow of Apollo hanging from it.(39) If the shafts of Apollo were meteorites, Python would have been pelted and not pierced into extinction. If Mars really approached Earth, as Velikovsky assumed, meteors could conceivably have plummeted from the red planet onto our own.* The Earth would thus have become the target of Apollo's "arrows". It is, therefore, of note that the astronomical symbol for the planet Mars became a globe with an arrow extending from it. It is also interesting that, coincidentally or not, meteors and/or asteroids that cross the ...
