... name of Un-nefer also has the meanings "to open, to make manifest." Is this a completely unrelated coincidence across time and space? Exactly what was opened and what was manifest? In Egypt, we have already seen how the resurrection of Osiris/Saturn was dependant upon his son Horus/Mars, at the peak of the polar column, opening Osiris' mouth and simultaneously returning his Eye to completeness. Venus, centred upon the orb of Saturn, was understood as both the sun god's eye and heart or heart-soul. [9 ] And in addition to being the pupil of the eye, Horus/Mars was in turn the "heart of the heart" ...
172. Brains Trust - Chronology and Ancient History [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Proceedings of the SIS Silver Jubilee Event" Home | Issue Contents Brains Trust - Chronology and Ancient History Chair: Brian Moore Panel: L Saunders, J Crowe, J Bimson, and C Raspil Q1. What if there was a flare up on the sun and the aurora borealis was seen much more widely? Could it look like a polar configuration, or could we have a solar rather than a polar configuration? Charles Raspil thought a solar flare-up would lead to a lot of energy coming out of the magnetotail of the earth. This would impinge on the ionosphere, giving more visible effects. Some sort of configuration in the past may have been located at the North Pole ...

174. ...more Myths Monuments and Mnemonics: A Photographic Tour of Egyptian Antiquities [Journals] [Horus]
... precise measurement and engineering and the evident sophistication in Egyptian mathematics and geometry, modem interpreters have difficulty in making astronomical sense of it all. Zoser's statue maintains a perpetual vigil towards the "North of Heaven" For example, the cardinal point alignment of the Great Pyramid and clues from the historical record suggest an equinoctal meaning along with the obvious polar implication of the North-quadrant passage. Ancient Egyptian texts call the pyramid a petrified/frozen ray of the Sun, i.e ., a single moment in time. From other accounts that its design was related to latitude and that the North-face would swallow its shadow at noon on certain days, the equinox seems the most likely candidate ...
175. Vox Popvli [Journals] [Aeon]
... Darkness Richard M. Smith, from Banning, California, writes: Concerning Roger Ashton's paper on purple darkness, [8 ] I like the idea behind the "Out of the Attic" section. Certainly, there are many proposals that need to be aired which very often aren't. In his paper, Ashton seems to refer to a polar configuration that would show a half-lit Saturn as viewed from Earth, whereas David Talbott subscribes to a crescent-illuminated Saturn in his scenario. [9 ] In any case, I disagree with Ashton's statement that there could only be one configuration that would fulfill Talbott's scenario. Several years ago, I experimented with "odd" planetary orbits. I ...

Jocelyn Godwin, Arktos: The Polar Myth in Science, Symbolism, and Nazi Survival (London, 1993), p. 149. The Elusive Caduceus The image of the caduceus is well-known and in fact deeply entrenched in current symbolic iconography. Any dictionary will reveal that the caduceus was the magical staff of the Greek Hermes, the Roman Mercury, the divine messenger. It is usually depicted as a vertical staff entwined by two serpents. ...
177. The Nature of Venus' Heat [Journals] [Velikovskian]
... air currents to the rest of the atmosphere and imparts the west-to-east motion throughout. East-to-west or west-to-east motions are designated as zonal motion or zonal circulation. The second source of energy that imparts motion in a planet's atmosphere is solar heat. The sun's radiant energy heats the dayside of a planet, more so in the equatorial regions than in the polar regions. This form of radiant input causes the hot air to rise at the equator and, in the upper atmosphere, to move toward the cooler polar regions. When the air becomes sufficiently cooled, it sinks to the surface and then returns, along this surface route, to the hot equatorial regions where it is heated to rise ...
178. In Defense Of The Saturn Thesis [Journals] [Aeon]
... misunderstood, misread, and even misrepresented, what mythology explicitly states, let alone what myths might mean. So how well-equipped could he really have been to deal with the subject? The fourth issue I wish to tackle concerns what designation to use when referring to our Saturnian model as opposed to his. He tells us that tags like "polar" and "axial" will not fit the bill since these designations can also apply to his model. [11] If I am reading him right, he seems to be demanding that we come up with an appellation which would differentiate our model from his- in other words to accommodate him. He himself, of course, ...

... from the natural sciences indicates that these great disturbances which rocked our globe were caused by forces outside the earth itself. In EARTH IN UPHEAVAL the author brings together a multitude of remarkable facts — such as palms found in northern Greenland, corals in Alaska and Spitsbergen, the unfossilized bones of hippopotami in England and France, and the remains of polar bears and arctic foxes crushed together in one mass with ostriches and crocodiles. Further data verify that at the very time that Dr. Velikovsky claimed as the date of the recent global catastrophe only 3500 years ago the level of the world's oceans dropped sharply, climate was violently altered, and ancient civilizations were plunged into destruction. Here is ...
