... it "weakened the nations" before it was cut down to the ground. It weakened the nations in two collisions with the earth, and it weakened the nations by keeping them in constant fear for centuries. The Book of Isaiah, in every chapter, provides abundant evidence that with the removal of Venus, so that it no longer crossed the orbit of the earth, danger was not eliminated, but became even more threatening. Notes 1 Eccentricity of Venus' orbit is .007. 2 Inclined 3 4' to the plane of the ecliptic (Duncan, 1945). ...

... their search of a promised land."13 In India the patron of the invading Aryan race was Indra, the god of war, the Hindu Mars. The Ionians and Dorians spread to the islands, the Latins were pressed by newcomers to the Apennine Peninsula, the Cimmerians wandered from Europe across the Bosphorus into Asia Minor, the Scythians crossed the Caucasus into Asia.

404. Ancient Astronauts [Books] [de Grazia books]
... an atmosphere, and might possibly have engendered similar life forms. Passage from one planet to another would have been possible without highly specialized airborne vehicles. It is also possible that several planets were grouped close together. Something like the "Piper Cub" plane just referred to would not appear so ludicrous. For the vehicle would not have to cross through "outer space." If the "ancient astronauts" theory were true, and adapted the scenario of Solaria Binaria, the knowledge of genetics and evolution gained in field studies of earthlings would not have been wasted. It can be transferred to the exoterrestrial location that had produced the visitors, because both on Earth and on the ...
405. The Atmosphere Of Mars, Part 2 Mars Ch.9 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... . In the present study of cosmic catastrophes the endeavour has been to establish the fact that in the eighth and seventh centuries before this era the earth was repeatedly approached by a celestial body; that this body was the planet Mars; that previously Mars had been displaced from its path by contact with Venus, which up to that time had crossed the orbit of the earth; and that Venus, the earth, and Mars, as a consequence, assumed new positions in the solar system. In all these contacts between Venus, the earth, and Mars there was an exchange of atmospheres, the earth acquiring the carbon clouds of Venus and also some of the atmosphere of Mars ...
406. Zetetic Scholar Nos. 3 & 4 April 1979 [Articles]
... is yet to appear a refutation that does not fundamentally beg the question that comes to grips with the argument as a whole and under its own terms. From the vantage of particular disciplines the postulation of worldwide catastrophes may seem to violate the rule of parsimony, but one should consider how the entire hypothesis provides a simple solution to many problems crossing disciplinary boundaries, an accomplishment which applies that rule in a wider context. Additionally, besides begging the question, much criticism of Velikovsky's proposals has amounted to an argumentum ad homendum, the invalid argument that something cannot be true because of the horrible consequences that would follow. The second test involves whether a prima facie case has been presented ...
407. The Two Faces of Love [Books] [de Grazia books]
... of a phallus and salt, ' the latter standing probably for the sea-froth and semen of which the goddess was born. In Rome, like New York City, anything could be found, including this, too. The case for bearded Aphrodites representing the planet Venus occurs partly because the ankh (shown below), the crux ansata or cross with a handle, ' is associated with both the planet and with a number of representations that must be regarded as the goddess Aphrodite. The ankh is an ambivalent symbol that denotes bisexuality, a combined phallus and vulva. The cometary references seem clear, for a comet's generally round nucleus and straight-out long tail convey in the sky a ...
408. Is Gravity Necessary? (A Response to Charles Ginenthal's Electro-Gravitic Theory) [Journals] [Aeon]
... oscillating back and forth as if connected through a spring. Pressed closest together the charges will push the bodies apart. In Ginenthal's model, equality of "gravitative" and "electromagnetic" forces is achieved when the planet is at its mean distance from the Sun. On the elliptical curve the two bodies have their mean separation as the planet crosses the minor axis. Near the mean separation the electrical repulsion no longer dominates; past it the gravitational attraction becomes the stronger action, but the motion will carry the bodies apart until gravity overcomes all outward motion. At the furthest distance (the aphelion) gravity begins to pull the orbiting body back with increasing speed until the mean distance ...
409. Reply to Earl Milton [Journals] [Aeon]
... to the stars-namely, energetically charged space surrounding celestial bodies. Although I agree that space is charged, I espouse the view that its source is the cores of stars and other celestial bodies. From these disparate concepts there follows a second fundamental difference. According to Milton stars do not age, but change from one type to another as they cross boundaries from one charged region of space to another, differently-charged region; for example, a red star in the past can be a yellow star today and a blue star in the future as it moves from one region to another. I maintain that stars do age and that they begin their lives as blue stars, and as they ...
410. Solar System Studies (Part 2) [Journals] [Aeon]
... of sound in rock at the Mojo layer but do not preclude it from being more solid than not. Nevertheless, it is a plausible source for liquid lavas to rise to Earth's surface via lava tubes or along cracks in the lithosphere whenever seismic activity is triggered at shallow depths below Earth's surface. Seismic studies also indicate crustal cracks do not cross the Mojo to match up with those of lower strata. The Mojo deserves much more attention. It should be mentioned that Velikovsky referred to the possibility that electrical currents, resulting from close encounters between Earth and other planets, could produce subterranean heating of the very type which could melt vast stretches of the Mojo and lead to mountain building ...
