... conjunctions are separated by 144.48 degrees, the fifth being 2.4 degrees from the starting point, as shown by the dotted lines in Figure 1: each successive period of eight years forms another pentagram rotated 2.4 degrees. The pentagram was the secret symbol of the Pythagoreans, and provides a basis for linking Egyptian, Greek, and Babylonian mythology and astronomy. Conjunctions of other planets also define geometric figures, such as the Trigon of Great Conjunctions or Jupiter and Saturn (Figure 2). Figure 1 - Pentagramma Veneris Figure 2 - The Trigon of Great Conjunctions In round numbers, the conjunctions occur every 20 years, a Trigon (triangle) is formed ...
... , in Ragnarok. But to quote from Harris: 226 We have shown that it does not necessarily follow that when the parenthood of the Thunder is recognised, it necessarily extends to both of the twins. The Dioscuri may be called unitedly, Sons of Zeus; but a closer investigation shows conclusively that there was a tendency in the early Greek cults to regard one twin as of divine parentage, and the other of human. Thus Castor is credited to Tyndareus, Pollux to Zeus. . . The extra child made the trouble, and was credited to an outside source. Only later will the difficulty of discrimination lead to the recognition of both as Sky-boys or Thunder-boys. An ...
263. The Synodical Year Of Venus, Part 1 Venus Ch.10 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... equal 2922 days. In other words, in four years there is a difference of approximately one day between the Venus and the Julian calendars. As I shall show in more detail in my reconstruction of ancient history, the Egyptians of the second part of the first pre-Christian millennium observed the Venus year. A decree published in Egyptian and in Greek by the conclave of priests which took place in Canopus in the reign of Ptolemy III (Euergetes) in -239 was intended to reform the calendar "according to the present arrangement of the world" and "an amendment of the faults of the heaven," replacing the year regulated by the rising of the star Isis- and Pliny ...
264. The Road to Iron: 8th and 7th Century Metallurgy and the Decline of Egyptian Power [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... present at their 1972 Summit meeting. Cadillacs are as scarce in modem Russia as iron weaponry was in 18th dynasty Egypt. That dagger was the status symbol of an advanced technology.10 Akhnaton's Asian empire fell before Hatti and her allies. In the time of King Ay, hundred-gated Thebes itself fell to foreign enemies- the Epigoni of the Greek Theban cycle of legends, according toVelikovsky's reconstruction11- and the great 18th dynasty came to its inglorious end. However, the restored Egypt of the 19th dynasty which successfully maintained hegemony over the land of Israel against the Hittite Empire in the reigns of Seti I and Ramses II (c . 825-734, Glasgow dating) was not so deficient ...

266. New Chronology Issues, continued from Workshop 1991:1 [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... millennium. Thus a fictitious dating system for Egypt is used to construct a fictitious dating system for Greece. For Robinson then to hold up this evidence for an Olympic festival predating 776 BC is mere sophistry. On the alphabet, Robinson states that my comments show complete ignorance' of what he describes as the copious evidence' showing that the Greek alphabet long predated 800 BC. Strangely, however, Robinson names not a single authority who would place the invention of Greek letters earlier. The only evidence he advances is once again dependant on Egyptian chronology. Cylinder seals contemporary with Nikmed of Ugarit, who employed an alphabetic cuneiform, were found at the Kadmeion in Thebes. These seals ...
267. Atlantis [Journals] [Pensee]
... his own time. Whether or not the incident had occurred exactly 9000 years earlier was left somewhat ambiguous (2 ); nevertheless, 9000 became the generally accepted figure. The proposed sinking of Atlantis ca. 9600 B.C . creates a rather knotty problem. The description of Atlantean culture by Plato (Critias 115-120), assuming no Greek coloring, fits a Bronze Age civilization which would have appeared considerably later in time according to present understanding. Thus, some Atlantologists have sought to reduce the number of years by attributing a lunar rather than solar calendar to the Egyptians. While there seems to be no substantial evidence supporting such a view (3 ), this did not ...
268. Newton And Historical Science [Journals] [Kronos]
... Marsham in 1672. What is striking in this proposed revision of ancient chronology is that it agrees with the main points of the revision of ancient chronology proposed by Velikovsky in Ages in Chaos. The main points are: a) Biblical chronology is more reliable than any other ancient chronology. b) In the list of Egyptian dynasties transmitted by Greek authors, several dynasties are duplicated and some have been inserted in the wrong order. c) In order to reconstruct the correct Egyptian chronology, a basic datum is provided by the fact that the pharaoh who sacked the Temple of Jerusalem in the age of King Rehoboam, the successor of Solomon, called Shishak in the Old Testament, ...
269. Golden Age Canopy by Isaac Vail [Books]
... we are all familiar we find "sun regents", hidden suns, water heavens, fallen heavens, concealing heavens, etc., and a closer examination into the celestial tangle shows that we have got to restore the hypothetic aqueous canopy to solve the thousand and one mysteries that befog the student and the scholar. I have an ancient Greek Heaven in mind. His name Ouranos is equated with Varuna, Regent of the sun, He closely embraced mother Earth at first, but Themis (Law), the trend of nature, ordained that he was but an ephemeral heaven and that he should pass from power. Which he did, and in spite of all we can ...
270. Venus in Ancient Myth and Language [Journals] [Aeon]
... hardly be separated from the recent history of the planet Venus. It is a curious fact, one little noticed by the scholarly community as a whole, that the vast majority of the world's great goddesses were identified with the planet Venus. This is the case with the Sumerian Inanna, Babylonian Ishtar, Canaanite Astarte, Egyptian Isis, and Greek Aphrodite, for example. (1 ) Following the lead of Immanuel Velikovsky, who, in Worlds in Collision, proposed that the planet Venus had recently assumed a comet-like orbit, Talbott and I attempted to reconstruct the history of this most unusual "comet." (2 ) We found a consistent connection of a comet-like Venus with ...
