... in book form. This may have something to do with the fact that Velikovsky never finished the work describing those earlier catastrophes, because they make Worlds in Collision look pretty tame by comparison. Someday, his executors may release the manuscript of Jupiter of the Thunderbolt and Saturn and the Flood. In the meantime, some articles which appeared in KRONOS provide a few details. The evidence of the Greenland ice cores have implications for claims of these earlier catastrophes, which I will review here. Chief among these earlier catastrophes was the Biblical Deluge, which Velikovsky ascribed to an explosion (to which he alluded as a nova) of the planet Saturn . "It is conceivable that the ...
472. Heracles and the Planet Mars [Journals] [Aeon]
... Diodorus' testimony, the understanding of the planet Saturn as an ancient sun-god of some sort being widespread in antiquity. (23) While a full investigation of the ancient traditions associated with the planet Saturn is beyond the scope of this essay, one motive is relevant here: the personification of Saturn as ruler of the netherworld. The Greek Kronos, ruling over the Elysian Fields, is a prime example of such a figure. (24) The Indian Hades was Yama, who finds a counterpart in the Iranian Yima, resident of a wondrous celestial enclosure. (25) Indo-European scholars have established that Yama/Yima was identified with the planet Saturn although they have been unable ...
473. Velikovsky: A Personal Chronological Perspective of His Final Years [Journals] [Aeon]
... , and allowing for personal differences, they are of the same cut of fabric, and Velikovsky's unfamiliarity with a "precipitous" cascade of ideas from a friendly quarter had made him wary. With a modicum of prescience I told Velikovsky: "Don't underestimate Lewis Greenberg." (And with Greenberg's subsequent efforts as Editor-in-Chief of the interdisciplinary journal Kronos, through forty-four high-level, scholarly issues, my words later made me look good.) The following evening a small social tea was held at my home, but it almost got out of hand. By the time I returned from picking up the Velikovskys at their hotel, the house was full, and even my nephew had come ...
474. Venus Before Exodus [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... you will have heard Elizabeth Chesley-Baitty speak here on her studies of the fire-bull ritual, and will remember how she said "something must have really frightened them" in explanation for this widespread practice. This is also the theme of Zvi Rix's "Great Terror", an article concerning the terror effect of the Venus comet which he wrote for Kronos [38]. Another of Rix's ideas was that of a "phallic" Venus-comet [39]. Martin Sieff has brilliantly combined these ideas to account for the practice of circumcision. You see, Abraham, Ishmael, and all of Abraham's men are circumcised en masse, three days before Venus destroys Sodom and Gomorrah. There are ...
475. Thoth Vol I, No. 10: April 22, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... with the outermost planet, Saturn. Though the designation seems bizarre, the expression "star of Helios" or "star of Sol" was applied to Saturn! Of the Babylonian star-worshippers the chronicler Diodorus writes: "To the one we call Saturn they give a special name, Sun-Star. '" Similarly, the Greek historian Nonnus gives Kronos as the Arab name of the "sun," though Kronos meant only Saturn and no other celestial body. Hyginus, in listing the planets, names first Jupiter, then the planet "of Sol, others say of Saturn." A Greek ostrakon, cited by the eminent classicist, Franz Boll, identifies the Egyptian sun god ...
