... From: SIS Internet Digest 2002:2 (Dec 2002) Home | Issue Contents Sun offers Halloween trick or treat'www.sunspot.noao.edu/press/flare/ National Solar Observatory Press Releases: Sacramento Peak, NM (Oct. 31, 2002): The sun gave solar physicists a rare, perhaps unique, treat on Halloween with the nearly simultaneous eruption of flares on opposite edges of the sun. Now the trick is figuring out the connection between two events that were about 2 million km (1 .4 million miles) apart, as measured across the solar surface. The flares were observed Thursday, Oct. 31, at 1700 UT ...

... , which struck out Freud and the rest of the "schools"; orgies were practiced as curriculum in some campus classrooms as the call came for tearing down all inhibitions. Pot and acid, uncombed hair, colorful patches on torn trousers, four-letter words filling belles lettres- and the vision of John the Baptist turned out to be a Halloween mask. With knives and shotguns young girls massacred revellers unknown to them, on the stages cohabitation was played nightly, Christ was feted as superstar; but the millennium loomed farther away than ever. The movement ran out of momentum; a circle came full and once around and full again and there was no exit from the purgatorium; ...
4. Mythic Ireland, by Michael Dames [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Grean is a hill to the NE of Lough Gur, known colloquially as bright cheeks. The Giant's Grave on top of the hill is an effigy of Graney ( = brightness and beauty) according to Dames, and hundreds of stones are laid out in the form of her long flowing tresses. Irish bruiden stories were associated with Samhain (Halloween) and things that go bump in the night. The god hero was invariably enticed into a magic house or bruiden, a banqueting hall, where he is unexpectedly abused and ill-treated, and sometimes is killed. Finn for instance, was lured to the bruiden every November (a region in the sky). Bruiden tales were traditionally ...

6. On Decoding Hawkins' Stonehenge Decoded [Journals] [Pensee]
... Immanuel Velikovsky "The ancient Stonehengers had true perils on their minds when they dragged huge monoliths from afar, when they watched that the sun should not continue to rise past the foreordained point on the horizon. It is in vain to search the motive for erecting Stonehenge in awe before the perils' of lunar eclipse during the few weeks following Halloween." In 1963 and 1964, a young and talented astronomer, Professor Gerald S. Hawkins, published two papers in the British magazine, Nature (October 26, 1963, and June 27, 1964). The subject of the papers was developed by him in articles (Harper's, June, 1964; American Scientist, December ...
7. Boscawen-un [Journals] [SIS Review]
... SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2001:2 (Jan 2002) Home | Issue Contents Boscawen-un Norman Lockyer, in a study of Boscawen-un stone circle near Lands End in Cornwall, claimed that it was not only aligned to sunrise on the summer solstice but it was also aligned to the important folk moots and gatherings of May Day and November (Halloween). Boscawen-un is named in a Welsh triad as one of the three' (a magical number and not necessarily a limitation to the actual number of) Gorsedds in Britain (read here, probably, SW and W. Britain). In other words, the 19 stones of Boscawen-un circle remained potent into the druidic period. ...
8. Reviewing Velikovsky'S Venus And Mars Theories [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... which was Marchesvan 17, ancient Tishri calendar, widely used in the Near East. This day in October almost coincides with the solemn Hebrew day of atonement. It was cited as the onset day of Noah's Flood (Genesis 7). In later Hebrew times, October 24 (Tishri 17) reportedly was a dangerous day.4 Celtic Halloween themes repeat this same theme for late October. "Catastrophe" is an English word that comes from Latin, from the preposition "rata" (thrown down), and from the noun "astrum" (planet or star). Our word "disaster" has similar Latin roots. These are two among more than 350 words ...
9. Commemoration Of The 2300bc Event [Journals] [SIS Review]
... observed for three days, Oct. 31st, Nov. 1st and 2nd, and marked the beginning of the year [71]. As with the Aztecs, all fires were extinguished before Samhain. The new fire was kindled on Samhain eve and distributed throughout the land. This tradition was carried forward by the Druids and continues in the Halloween torches of the Irish, the bonfires of the Scottish, the coel-coeth fires of the Welsh and the tindle fires of Cornwall, all lit at this time [72]. The observance of Halloween at the end of October is said to have evolved from Samhain [73]. It is still considered a frightening time, with all ...
