223. Saturnists Play Marbles [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... Saturn theory. Yes - in MY case, there is still an awful lot of mythological material that has not yet been checked (or not checked well enough). Ev Cochrane Adds: I would agree with Dwardu here. While I am not aware of any major mythological themes that have not been "assimilated" to the Saturn theory- dragon combat, deluge, dying god, warrior hero, ancient sun-god, clown, etc. --it stands to reason that there must be some. Eric: I am assuming that if the answer is that most important mythological traditions have indeed been considered it is because those are regarded as the oldest and most reliable ones to testthe theory on ...

... his] feathers waved up and down, [and] grew till they could touch the sky on both sides."(95) The shooting star that made the earth into a sea of flames, the terrible noise, the water that rose mountain high, and the appearance of a monster in the sky, like Typhon or a dragon, all these elements were not brought together in this Indian narrative by sheer invention; they belong together. The Wichita, an Indian tribe of Oklahoma, tell the following story of "The Deluge and the Repeopling of the Earth":(96) "There came to the people some signs, which showed that there was something ...

... some riddles of mythology and religion: what do the Buddha, Typhon, Jesus, Astarte, Nimrod, Humbaba and other deities and phantasms of the ancient world have in common? why do certain floral patterns follow the gods all over the world? how beautiful was Helen of Troy? what did the gods really look like? why are dragons and serpents found below in Hell? where does the chorus line come from? where are the herds and waters of Heaven? were there more recent traces of the gods? 1.

227. The Saturn Thesis: Questions and Answers [Journals] [Aeon]
... common themes run through the folklore of diverse cultures. From ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia to the Americas, from India to China, Scandinavia, Africa, and the Pacific Islands, one finds surprisingly similar accounts: celestial temples and cities, a lost paradise or "Garden of Eden," a "cosmic mountain," a flaming serpent or dragon in the sky- and surprisingly similar stories of global calamity ranging from wars of the gods, to a great flood or a devastating rain of fire and gravel. If we'll look at these collective memories carefully, it will change our understanding of the past. Many of the myths concern planets, but the accounts make no sense to ...
228. The Female Star [Journals] [Aeon]
... the world over- namely, spectacular cataclysms associated with the respective planets. The Lady of Heaven A survey of the mythology surrounding Venus reveals a vast set of endlessly recurring themes: the planet as mother goddess; the planet as agent of death and destruction; the planet as "eye" of heaven; the planet as "fire-breathing" dragon; the planet as witch-like hag; the planet as paramour of Mars; and countless others. Comparative analysis of the various themes to be found scattered around the globe, in turn, allows for the reconstruction of an archetypal Venus myth which, in a very real sense, represents mankind's collective memory of our sister planet's recent history. ...

230. Return to the Paelo-Saturnian Ssystem (Forum) [Journals] [Aeon]
... did, in fact, start keeping track of time in this period of continuous day. Also, at what point did the maelstrom at the North Pole appear? Did it visibly reach Mars? It seems clear that the legends about a world "tree" (i .e . a gnarled trunk), "serpent," "dragon," "chaos monster," and "mountain" are describing the same phenomenon, the maelstrom in the north. But I'm confused as to how Venus' "hair" comes into the picture. Isn't that supposed to be the cometary tail of Venus? Did both these phenomena co-exist, or did they exist at different times ...
