293. The Milky Way [Journals] [Aeon]
... have planned the details of his itinerary in accordance with the portents of his wife's astrological chart, thereby imitating a long line of kings going back to the ancient Babylonians. As incredible as is the prospect of a modern president held pawn by the "science" of astrology, equally incredible is a central tenet of conventional archaeo-astronomy- that the myths and legends sur-rounding the various stars and constellations actually had their origin in the peaceful appearance and mundane movements of those celestial bodies. A greater fallacy it would be difficult to find. Take whichever asterism you please and there is no making sense of the traditions surrounding it in terms of its present appearance. How could such a situation arise ...
294. The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes edited by Iona and Peter Opie [Journals] [SIS Review]
... : SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 1997:1 (Oct 1997) Home | Issue Contents The Oxford Dictionary of Nursery Rhymes edited by Iona and Peter Opie (Oxford University Press, softback edition 1992) This book was originally published in 1951, so there is nothing sensationally new about it but it is interesting to consider how much of ancient myth and custom might be hidden in the harmless little ditties which mothers still sing to their children. Oral tradition survives for hundreds of years and the conservative nature of children combined with the fact that they are often in contact with the grandparent generation means that rhymes can be passed on virtually unchanged for a long time. This book consists of ...

297. The Birth and Death of Memory [Books] [de Grazia books]
... , we may assert that the muses were created "by Zeus" to control the human memory so that humans should forget their catastrophes, and in so doing get surcease from sorrows. The word "muse" by itself has a meaning of happiness. And that the Muses will achieve this by transforming events through art and song, through myth. The memory of disasters is doctored "by Zeus" ultimately to brainwash humanity and to present the new order of heaven as proper, lawful, and beautiful. Hesiod, reciting this profound truth, goes on to describe how the muses work, reminding us of a combined team for domestic propaganda and psychological warfare. As a result ...

... presented as heavenly bodies, specifically Mars and Venus, who have abandoned their roles, or left their accustomed orbits, to pose a vast danger to the Roman Empire, or Earth. They are then opposed and defeated by Octavius, who may be the Sun. When they are dead, their names and memories can be safely elevated to myth, just as Dr. Velikovsky tells us that the actual planets Mars and Venus, once so prominent in the skies and so threatening, are mow safely distant, in fixed orbits, presenting no living danger to the Earth, and so they too can be safely venerated. If one has read Velikovsky, the general action in Antony ...

... p. 386), and born from the waterside (Cox, p.253). Her cult was commonly found connected with a stream or body of water (Rose, p. 108). According to the older legends, Athene was not the offspring of Zeus, but was the daughter of Poseidon (Graves- The Greek Myths, p.45) or Triton/Tritos (Cox, p. 249), both of which were closely associated with water. Cox ( p.249) states that the god Tritos was so old that he disappeared from the memory of the Greeks. The Greeks at first attempted to connect him with places having a similar ...
