521. Thoth Vol II, No. 7: April 15, 1998 [Journals] [Thoth]
... It should go without saying that an immense amount of work on models is needed. And the compelling reason for proceeding is a vast field of evidence which science has ignored. Neither the recent history of our Earth, nor the geological history of our planetary neighbors, nor the cultural history of humankind will be comprehended until we confront the great celestial spectacles witnessed by our ancestors. And that investigation will require much more than the usual scant attention to methodology. Because these spectacles involved well-defined forms in the sky, it is essential that critical principles of reasoning be appreciated. Nothing is more fundamental to the reconsideration of planetary history than a rigorously-developed comparative approach to human testimony. For many ...

522. The Cosmic Double Helix [Journals] [Aeon]
... that sacred staffs and scepters, wielded by magicians, shamans, kings, priests and warlords, were often microcosmic representations of the universe as a whole. Vague as this may sound, it can be demonstrated that the sacred staff was a miniature replica of the axis mundi, the column in the optical centre of the sky which united the celestial pole with the north and south poles of Earth. In the present article I will not dwell on this general connection, but will restrict myself to entwined forms of the sacred staff only. Hermes/Mercury. A second key of crucial importance is that the classical caduceus does not stand alone, but is sim-ply one cultural expression of ...

523. Revisiting The Temperature Of Venus [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... on record with his absurd, conceited attack. This is repeated in almost all of the glossy journal criticisms: "Velikovsky has confused a carbohydrate with a hydrocarbon" (1 ) ; "Ralph Juergens is a practicing engineer, but he doesn't know what a Reynolds Number is" (2 ) ; "Mr. Bass does not do celestial mechanics, rather he talks celestial mechanics. I do not believe his conclusions, nor do I believe they are firmly founded in rigorous mathematics. They are largely hand-waving." (3 ) And so on, ad nauseam. The strategy aims at discrediting an opponent by identifying elementary errors in his work or by casting doubt on his ...

... , the impact of meteorites, the solar wind, the radiation pressure of sunlight, electromagnetic forces, and drag from the interplanetary medium. Evidently the effect of this sort of thing on orbital motions is negligible, at least as far as current knowledge is concerned. Bass claims that Velikovsky's theories are however quite consistent with rigorous results in ordinary celestial mechanics; for at the same time that Arnol'd proved (Sov. Math. Dok. 3 (1962), 1008-1011 and Russ. Math. Surv. 18.6 (1963), 85-193) that the majority of planetary configurations with small initial eccentricities and inclinations remain stable for all time, that is to say they never ...

525. 2nd SIS Cambridge Conference Abstracts [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... Historical Times: The Astronomical Framework Available data from fireball and comet observations, meteorite impacts, small lunar craters and the current near-Earth environment are assembled to yield a coherent picture of the interface between the Earth and its current interplanetary environment. The Taurid Complex of meteors, meteoroids, asteroids and Comet Encke has probably been a significant and regularly visible celestial hazard from the last Ice Age through to the present day. These data lead to the expectation that history has been punctuated by: (I ) Tunguska-like impacts, singly or as part of fireball swarms; (ii) freezing events of decadal duration, due to cometary dusting of the stratosphere; and (iii) occasional disastrous inundations ...

... " -god, and under the duress of cosmic upheaval they sacrificed their children in that name. These ancient nations were not ignorant or sub-human savages, but the builders of advanced civilizations. Why did they worship a _planet_ as a sovereign god? The reconstruction presented in this newsletter will suggest that they lived under a much different celestial environment than our own. The mission of THOTH is to offer for discussion a new view of our cosmic history, based on the universal testimony of ancient sources, buttressed by the most relevant information coming from the hard sciences. Our contention will be that ancient sources and solar system physics make possible an entirely new way of seeing planetary ...

527. The Age of Purple Darkness [Journals] [Aeon]
... , conceived the man-horse, Chiron." [18] From the fragments of myth so far cited for the examples of the tale of darkness, and for the identification of the Vedic gods which were personifications of Saturn, there has been obtained the impression of an era of darkness with some sort of auroral effect that the primitives saw as celestial waters. A yellow orb that myth later recalled as a golden egg was seen to appear and remain for a while in these celestial waters. [19] Inasmuch as Prajāpati and Varuna, being described as within a golden container, are synonyms for Saturn, the orb would have been a primeval substar, Saturn. A version of ...

... From: SIS Workshop Vol 2 No 4 (Apr 1980) Home | Issue Contents Monitor Catastrophism Revived?It has become fashionable to debate catastrophes of extra-terrestrial origin. Thus "Celestial Chaos and Terrestrial Catastrophes" ( New Scientist , 14/12/78, pp.861-3) by Dr. David Clark, Dr. Gary Hunt, & Prof. William McCrea. Several extra-terrestrial influences with possible catastrophic implications are discussed. The first of these is the old war-horse the "precession of the equinoxes" - a harmless enough beginning. Sunspot cycles are discussed, and a possible major variation in these is postulated as a cause of the ice Ages. One variation of this ...

' He comes forth and diminishes at the center, which is also the summit- the celestial Pole."[3 ] Saturn was also the Babylonian Entil. The points of difference among the several authors and between them and the theses of this book will be subjected in time to elaborate criticism, but the developing consensus amounts to a serious challenge to conventional opinion in the full range of historical and natural sciences.

MERCURY Hermes does not enter upon the action, As the planet Mercury, he may have been in a conjunction with one or more of the principles, in which event he may have vented some unusual expression. He may have presented an apparition at the time. For the scene may not have had the celestial clarity in the actuality that it achieved in the dancing circle. In a time of storm, of darkness and ashes, of lightning strokes, of different visual and acoustical perspectives - especially at the climax of the celestial disturbances - it is possible that a convocation of the gods was perceived. Perhaps Mercury appeared as an optical illusion and ...
