... 360-day year was in widespread use in various ancient cultures really bear this interpretation? Is there a any contrary evidence from similar sources indicating a 365-day year at the same period? If the texts do support this claim, what limits can be set to the dates(s ) at which the length of the year changed? MICHAEL START Did Moon maul Mars?Peter James's article "Aphrodite - the Moon or Venus" has thrown a new light on the interpretation of Aphrodite myths with regard to interplanetary encounters. I accept that the evidence for the identification of Aphrodite with Venus is very strong while that for Aphrodite with the Moon is not. My interest is roused by the sparse ...
252. The Ship of Heaven [Journals] [Aeon]
... ; and was its weakest when the crescent was directly over Saturn (d ). This daily cycle, I have claimed, is reflected in all ancient symbolism of the Saturnian "day" and "night." Since the behavior of the crescent in this model is unambiguous- and invites no confusion with the behavior of our "new Moon" today- there should be no difficulty in confirming the true identity of the ship if the model is fundamentally valid. It will be useful, then, to enumerate the ways in which the model distinguishes itself from conventional interpretations of the ship. As we have emphasized, the advantage of the model is that each of the components ...
253. Transcript of the Evening Session of the A.A.A.S. Symposium [Articles]
... of the eighth century. Soon after that time, in all places, in all civilization, one or another reform was done, and five or five and a quarter days were added by all civilizations. The reform was almost simultaneously- at least during one and the same century. And expressions were not just about months- about the Moon, the Moon travels in thirty days. Half of the Moon is fifteen days. Such great errors as a half day every month, to do was never done. Yesterday, I discussed the question with Professor Huber, and, discussing Ammizaduga tablets, I told him that I believe that Ammizaduga tablets- ascribed usually to the end ...
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 33 The End of the Mediasiatic Sea Another great geographical change was wrought by Luna in Central Asia. At a not so very remote age there must have existed a great landlocked sea which filled the immense depression now called Dzungaria, and parts of the Gobi Desert. The richly sculptured coast of this expanse of water was the home of a teeming population of many nations, that lived in abundance in an almost subtropical paradise with an equable climate (for we must remember the position of the North Pole at that time). At the advent of our present Moon ...
... if we give credence to Sagan's views, A Nahuatl-English Dictionary by John Bierhorst Stanford Univ. Press, CA, 1985) p. 310, defines, "Teotihuacan-1. Place where one becomes a spirit i.e ., the hereafter. 2. Famous archaeological site 40 km northeast of Mexico City .. .where the Sun and Moon were created..." There is no statement in this dictionary which equates Teo with god. The word refers to a "place" and that place is the sky "where the Sun and Moon were created." Therefore, Tollan is the city of Venus and refers to the heavens. On page 363 of the same ...

... to discover the Americas, that they did so is not proved. Critics are more willing to accept a possible Chinese discovery of Australia, but claim this information was already within the public domain. Bad Astronomy Another useful recent book is Bad Astronomy by astronomer Philip Plait [16]. Subtitled Misconceptions and Misuse Revealed, from Astrology to the Moon Landing Hoax', it can help you avoid elementary errors in considering what happens both out in space' and here at home. For example, would water really swirl down a drain clockwise north of the equator and anticlockwise south of it? Is the far side of the moon lit by the sun? Does the moon appear larger ...
257. Thoth Vol IV, No. 1: Jan 15, 2000 [Journals] [Thoth]
... hence, every theory is "wrong". But I must accede to my friends' pragmatism: We don't live in the past or in the future. We live in this present time, and this time is the domain of right and wrong. It would be wrong to insist on using a slide rule to direct Galileo around Jupiter's moons. Just so, it's wrong for Established Science to refuse to look at Arp's findings of quantized intrinsic redshifts. Just so, it's wrong to overlook Juergen's insights into the electrical nature of the sun. It's wrong to ignore Alfven's admonition that plasmas don't behave the way theoreticians believe and that there are large-scale currents in space. It's wrong ...
258. The Extended Habitation Zone [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... . But there are other possibilities in the solar system. This expansion of the habitable zone has occurred because biologists have been able to show that life is able to withstand extreme conditions with unexpected ease (2 ). The discovery of veritable oases' of water scattered widely through the solar system has increased the potentialities further. The 4 major moons of Jupiter are warmed' by the gravitational influence of the gas giant, and, among them, Europa almost certainly boasts a liquid water ocean below its icy crust (3 ). The tidal effect produced by the parent planet opens up some new possibilities, and has shown that our previous assumptions about what constitutes the habitable zone around ...
... From: Moons, Myths and Man by H. S. Bellamy CD Rom Home Last | Contents | Next 2 Myths- Man's Records of the Long Past At the conclusion of the last chapter I suggested that Man experienced the cataclysm of at least the predecessor of our present Moon the Tertiary Satellite and that the life of Man was greatly influenced thereby. In this book I shall endeavour to show that men have been an intelligent audience, watching the development of the cosmic drama, its rising to a climax, and solution of its crisis, from safe seats on certain mountain heights, and from other places of refuge. And diluvial' man has perpetuated his tremendous experiences ...
