... effect of such a shock on the Earth." From here I follow Heuer's translation of Laplace: The axis and the movement of rotation would be changed. The seas would abandon their ancient positions, in order to precipitate themselves towards the new equator; a great portion of the human race and the animals would be drowned in the universal deluge, or destroyed by the violent shock imparted to the terrestrial globe; entire species would be annihilated; all monuments of human industry overthrown; such are the disasters which the shock of a comet would produce, if its mass were comparable to that of the Earth. [The mass of Venus is almost equal to the mass of Earth ...
262. Mona Lisa And The Antarctic. File III (Stargazers and Gravediggers) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Stargazers]
... that catastrophe. I actually indulged in poetry when I wrote on page 88 in Earth in Upheaval: Only a few thousand years ago lava flowed there over an area larger than France, Switzerland and Belgium combined; it flowed not as a creek, not as a river, not even as an overflowing stream, but as a flood, deluging horizon after horizon, filling all the valleys, devouring all the forests and habitations, steaming large lakes out of existence as though they were little potholes filled with water, swelling ever higher and overtopping mountains and burying them deep beneath molten stone, boiling and bubbling, thousands of feet thick, billions of tons heavy. I agreed to ...
263. High Energy from Space [Books] [de Grazia books]
... From: Chaos and Creation, by Alfred De Grazia Home | Issue Contents CHAPTER TWO High Energy from Space In the train of the great deluge that ended the reign of the god Saturn-Osiris, mankind suffered from hideous monster-forces. So said the Egyptians. These were Briareux: loss of serenity; Othus: the succession of seasons; Ephialtes: horrendous clouds; Encelade: ravaging waters; Porphyrion: fracturing of the earth; Mimas: the downpours of water; Rhaecus: the great wing. Horus, son of Osiris, helped his mother as much as he could to restore man to his happier pursuits [1 ]. The original cause was a huge celestial body. It ...
264. Preface (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... that catastrophe, and for nine years I worked on both projects, the political and the natural histories. Although Ages in Chaos was finished first, in the order of publication it will follow this work. Worlds in Collision comprises only the last two acts of the cosmic drama. A few earlier acts- one of them known as the Deluge- will be the subject of another volume of natural history. The historical-cosmological story of this book is based on the evidence of historical texts of many peoples around the globe, on classical literature, on epics of northern races, on sacred books of the peoples of the Orient and Occident, on traditions and folklore of primitive peoples, ...
265. The Autumn Meeting [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... of 9 such periods was the Sothic cycle, with no reference to astronomical dating, and again leads back to origins at 3103/3102 BC. In quite a few specialised situations in the Bible, 600' means escape or flight into rebirth, and another oriental dating system was based on such a cycle of destruction and regeneration. Noah's deluge was placed in such a context. The 430 years between Abraham and Moses denotes a legal covenant between two unequal elements, such as God and man. Such numbers, though artificial constructs, have been taken literally in some chronologies. 23 is the number of sacrifice and is involved in the myth of Abraham and the Indian equivalent, ...

267. Moons, Myths and Man [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... was able to become either dark or bright, at will. Rains of mud, icy material, shooting stars, falling rocks and debris - it is full of the kind of material which is the essence of Velikovsky's work. The book is full of informative bits and pieces. For instance, he associates the dragon slaying stories with the Deluge and the Egyptian Phoenix or bahu bahu (p . 69). The latter has the meaning to water' and to flood' and the hieroglyphic sign for the Phoenix is (he says) followed by three parallel wavy lines - the water symbol. He claims that the very same symbol reappears as the Number' or Mark' ...

... observers have remarked the freshness of lava deposits in the Snake River valley in Idaho."3 Only a few thousand years ago lava flowed there over an area larger than France, Switzerland, and Belgium combined; it flowed not as a creek, not as a river, not even as an overflowing stream, but as a flood, deluging horizon after horizon, filling all the valleys, devouring all the forests and habitations, steaming large lakes out of existence as though they were little potholes filled with water, swelling ever higher and overtopping mountains and burying them deep beneath molten stone, boiling and bubbling, thousands of feet thick, billions of tons heavy.

270. Of "Pre-existing Ideas" In The Souls Of Peoples, Part 2 Mars Ch.6 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... witch on her broom, so also with hundreds of other odd fantasies and beliefs. The answer to the problem of the similarity of the motifs in the folklore of various peoples is, in my view, as follows: A great many ideas reflect real historical content. There is a legend, found all over the world, that a deluge swept over the earth a nd covered hills and even mountains. We have a poor opinion of the mental abilities of our ancestors if we think that merely an extraordinary overflow of the Euphrates so impressed the nomads of the desert that they thought the entire world was flooded, a nd that the legend so born wandered from people to people ...
