... in proto-India. Baal is interchangeably Saturn and Jupiter in Babylon; Odin among the Teutons seems to be Zeus and yet Hermes and even Saturn (who is perhaps better Bor son of Buri, "son" of Ymir); then, too, Ishtar of Mesopotamia is to become the child of Jupiter, planet Venus, and even the Moon. The names of the gods are innumerable, and often overlap. Varro, the Roman scholar, counted 30,000 god-names used in Greece alone, according to Vico. Some of this confusion is in the nature of the events themselves; Saturn emerged from Super-Uranus and in turn bore Jupiter, which may have given birth to Venus ...
362. Tiahuanacu In The Andes. Ch.6 Mountains And Rifts (Earth In Upheaval) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Earth in Upheaval]
... Sierra barrier opened the way for a large lake on the Altiplano, which cascaded down into the valley and caused the aborigines to create the myth of a universal flood.10 Not so long ago an explanation of the mystery of Lake Titicaca and of the fortress Tiahuanacu on its shore was put forward in the light of Höerbiger's theory: A moon circled very close to the earth, pulling the waters of the oceans toward the equator; by its gravitational pull, the moon held, day and night, the water of the ocean at the altitude of Tiahuanacu: "The level of the ocean must have been at least 13 000 feet higher."11 Then the moon crashed ...
363. The Electric Saturnian System [Journals] [Aeon]
... Of course, the electric star model does not have any internal heat source to slowly evaporate a planet orbiting "inside" the star. And since the phenomenon of a star's redness is directly related to the electric stress impinging on the star, the same argument would apply to a red (or brown) dwarf star and small planets and moons as to a red giant star and giant planets. The model is identical, the scale is simply different. Such scalability doesn't work in the thermonuclear stellar model. AEON: Of course you have been using this state of affairs as a model for the Saturnian system being developed by the likes of Dwardu Cardona, David Talbott, and ...
364. Precursors of Quantavolution [Books] [de Grazia books]
... friend; one has to chase down a suspicion that he might pull the "silent-footnote" technique on a causal as against a merely chronological predecessor. Another precursor of V. (and of course Deg) was Howard Baker a geologist who first mentioned Venus as a possible intruder into Earth's space sheath, but had much to say concerning the Moon. Again I resort to Deg's Journal: Washington, February 19, 1979 Yesterday Ami and I spent the day at the Library of Congress to clean up the last of the bibliography and footnotes of Chaos and Creation. It is tedious and often unrewarding. Yet I located a copy of Howard Baker's mimeographed book of 1932, another copy ...
365. Senmut and Phaeton [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Orion and Sirius, which poses some intriguing possibilities, especially when it is appreciated that Scorpius is closer to the centre of the galaxy than ourselves but that Orion and Sirius, diametrically oppositely placed in the sky to Scorpius, are out towards the edge of the galaxy (16). Then there is the not unimportant question of whether the moon is represented on the ceilings or not - the correct answer to this appears to turn on whether the "empty boat" which can be seen ahead of the ram on two of the ceilings is properly the conveyance of the moon or not; representations of the moon in ancient Egypt presented in The Dawn of Civilisation by G. Maspero ...
366. The Reflective Canopy Model and the Mytho-historical Record [Journals] [Aeon]
... been posited by other scenarists. As early as 1884, Oskar Reichenbach, one of the earliest cosmic catastrophists on record, theorized that, due to the Earth's early equatorial eccentricity, our globe "cast off" a sizable chunk as well as a series of rings which "became envelopes." In time, the sizeable chunk became the Moon while the "remnants" of the rings "gradually descended" in "catastrophic downpours of solids, liquids, and gases during periods of convulsions .. . " The world's oceans were formed from this catastrophic downpour. (10) In 1913, in his Welt-Eis-Lehre, Hans Hoerbiger also posited a temporary ring of debris around the Earth ...
367. Mercury and the Tower of Babel [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... Where did Mercury come from and what caused it to pass near the Earth? In early times following the Flood of Noah, Jupiter would have been much closer to the Earth(2 ) and might have been on an orbit which brought it dangerously close to our planet on occasions. I suggest that on one occasion one of its outer moons was detached from Jupiter by Earth's gravitational field. That moon would have been Mercury: in Babylonian mythology Nebo (Mercury) was the son of Marduk (Jupiter).(3 ) Mercury is about the correct size to be a detached moon and many conventional scientists have toyed with the idea that it was an escaped moon of Venus ...
368. Jupiter's Magnetic Field and Io's Volcanoes [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Review Vol IV No 4 (Spring 1980) Home | Issue Contents Jupiter's Magnetic Field and Io's Volcanoes Extra One of the best known of Velikovsky's successful "advance claims" regarding the solar system concerns the planet Jupiter. In a lecture delivered in October 1953 he stated: "In Jupiter and its moons we have a system not unlike the solar family. The planet is cold, yet its gases are in motion. It appears probable to me that it sends out radio noises as do the sun and the stars." (Earth in Upheaval, Supplement: "Recent Finds in Astronomy".) In correspondence with Albert Einstein, Velikovsky (June 1954 ...
369. Sun, Moon and Sothis [advert] [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon V:4 (July 1999) Home | Issue Contents Advertisement Sun, Moon and Sothis A Study of Calendar Reforms in Ancient Egypt Lynn E.Rose FRESH OFF THE PRESS The Osiris Series Sponsored by Cosmos & Chronos Series Editor- Dwardu Cardona Volume II Hard cover: 339 pages Including: Appendices, Bibliography & Index The history of calendars is far from cut-and-dried. Almost every topic that this book addresses has long been the subject of heated controversy. Rose sees Hellenistic and Roman Egypt as of unparalleled importance in the history of calendar development. Even the Julian calendar had its origins in Hellenistic Egypt. Very likely, the Julian calendar itself was Sothic- that ...
370. Enheduanna and the Goddess Inanna [Journals] [SIS Review]
... in front of her, pouring a libation from a jar, is a shaven-headed priest. Two other attendants follow Enheduanna. Photograph courtesy of The University Museum, University of Pennsylvania (negative S4-139330). The Exaltation of Inanna Enheduanna is the first authoress in history. The daughter of Sargon of Akkad, she became the high priestess of the moon god Nanna (otherwise known as Sin/Suen) in the southern Mesopotamian city of Ur. Although she was installed as high priestess during Sargon's reign [13], Enheduanna continued to officiate well into that of Naram-Sin, who is indirectly referred to in her greatest work, the hymnal prayer to the goddess Inanna. Sometimes called The ...
