... method: given that the initial, intermediate and final states of bodies participating in cosmogonic events were quite different from each other, how can we have any confidence in ancient identifications of these bodies? In the case of Venus and Mars it can be argued that ancient observational astronomy in the eighth and seventh centuries was equal to the task. Saturn, however, is much more problematic. According to Velikovsky, disruption of proto-Saturn produced a nova-like body and a watery cometary body; the latter enveloped the earth in a cosmic rainstorm of considerable duration; prior to, or subsequent to, the Deluge a Saturn of smaller mass was removed by Jupiter to an orbit distant from the earth ...
342. Aeon Volume V, Number 2: Contents [Journals] [Aeon]
... New Theory of How Petroleum and Coal are Generated- by C. Warren Hunt The title speaks for itself. PAGE 15 Pterodactyls in the Mesozoic: A Flap in Time- by Frederic Jueneman A case study of ancient life in the Mesozoic, stressing the difficulties pterodactyls would face had they to attempt flight in present terrestrial conditions. PAGE 21 Saturn and the Flood: The Ice-Core Evidence- by Sean Mewhinney A critical look at Immanuel Velikovsky's theory concerning the universal deluge, which he attributed to a nova-like eruption of the planet Saturn, and how this holds up when tested against the evidence of the Greenland ice cores. PAGE 38 Aphrodite Urania- by Ev Cochrane The many faces of ...
343. Bookshelf [Journals] [SIS Review]
... a collision in 701 BC finally broke the pattern. The authors claim that this stability was due to a series of resonances, consisting of the 1:2 ratio between the periods of Earth and Mars, a 1:6 ratio between the periods of Mars and Jupiter, and a 2:5 ratio between the periods of Jupiter and Saturn; there would also have been such corollary resonances as a 1:15 ratio between the periods of Mars and Saturn. The gravitational influences of the larger planets thus seem to have "locked Mars in" (page 274), so that Mars remained on the same orbit in spite of its collisions with Earth. In order to ...
344. On Fermor's article on ante-diluvian climate [Journals] [Catastrophism & Ancient History]
... Seth. Also there is a strong case for taking the events of Genesis 1:2 and 3:8 as being catastrophes (see for instance "The Primordial Light," in SIS: 1:2 ). Finally, the writers of antiquity (e .g . Ovid) who described the climatic golden age ascribed it to Saturn. Saturn has a lot to do with Earth's early history and should be looked to for an understanding of Earth's ante-diluvian climate. John P. Pseudonym John Fermor replies:Let us begin with peripheral concessions. Man could perhaps survive much greater atmospheric pressures, as do deep sea divers today, though whether such delicate functions as childbirth could ...
345. The Garden of Venus [Journals] [Aeon]
... such motifs typically have a celestial reference. That the entire scene from The Gilgamesh Epic was inspired by celestial events is probable. [23] The hero Gilgamesh, as we have elsewhere argued, [24] is identifiable with the planet Mars. He seeks immortality by following the road of Shamash, the ancient sun-god identified with the planet Saturn. [25] Significantly, the phrase "road of the sun" is specifically associated with Saturn in Babylonian astronomical texts. [26] The key to interpreting the episode of Gilgamesh's confrontation with Siduri, needless to say, revolves around the latter's identification. It is our opinion that Siduri is to be identified with the planet Venus ...
346. The Twelfth Planet: by Zecharia Sitchin [Journals] [Kronos]
... epic, and the Epic of Gilgamesh in light of the perspective of the Space Age. The title comes from Sitchin's contention that the Sumerians conceived the solar system as consisting of twelve bodies, the Sun and eleven planets, counting the Moon. However, the cylinder seal he relies upon shows what would be Pluto between what are identified as Saturn and Uranus. The Twelfth Planet is shown between Mars and Jupiter [p . 189]. The cosmic scenario proceeds as follows. "An unstable solar system, made up of the Sun and nine planets, was invaded by a large, comet like planet from outer space" [p .204] between 3.0 and ...
347. Thoth Vol IV, No 10: June 15, 2000 [Journals] [Thoth]
... "riddle" or "paradox" which only the hero can solve- this being the most abstract form in initiation rites, folklore, and later analogies,. In all of these forms we see key sequences in the hero's confrontation with the chaos powers. Though the images are quite diverse and often complex, the root explanation provided by the Saturn model is surprisingly simple. The explanation begins with the planetary alignment of the polar configuration- the juxtaposition of Mars, Venus and Saturn- when four luminous streamers were seen radiating from Venus in the form of an equal-limbed cross. (As I've noted on other occasions, this is the most frequently recorded form of the discharging Venus.) In ...
348. Comptinology and Tohu-bohu [Books] [de Grazia books]
... long history. Although the Oxford Dictionary of English based upon etymological principles does not extend sexual meaning to "diddle" (out of prudery) the connotation is present in the rhyme and the usage is indestructible. Giorgio di Santillana and Hertha von Dechend talk in Hamlet's Mill (287) of Tammuz, the grain-god aspect of Osiris, the Saturn of Egypt. A festival of mourning over his death marked the opening of the Egyptian New Year. The holy event lasted through millennia; lamented was the god who was cruelly killed by being ground up between millstones. The authors were reminded of the rhyme of John Barleycorn (a name in American folk stories that is synonymous with the ...
349. Thoth Vol I, No. 27: December 10, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... [This makes the work of Wal look like deja vu! Robert Dunlap]- SPECULATIONS ON MAR'S SPIN RATE I would like to clarify...... by saying that it is most likely, given the near equality of the spin rates of Earth and Mars, that both planets occupied Lagrange points of the same orbit around Saturn and therefore had exactly equal spin rates. Some moons of the outer planets do that today. We know, also from observation, that tidal forces are all that is needed to eventually cause phase lock resulting in the one face of a satellite to turn always to the primary. I would therefore argue that the Earth and Mars acquired ...
350. Thoth Vol II, No. 17: Oct 31, 1998 [Journals] [Thoth]
... to figure out what's cheaper have to ask for "special orders", too. Bottom line: Friday we made enough pizzas to bring in $850 on a non-sale week. What we actually grossed was $625. (minus 2 to 3 hours labor; another $100 lost). And what has this to do with the Saturn thesis? Just this: as long as astrophysicists ignore the electrical interactions taking place in the solar system, they're looking at the line-up of SL9, comet tails, Io's volcanoes and Europa's cracked surface as "$ 1 off." When the Saturnians add electrical interpretations to the equation, the historical orbital possibilities go up to "$ ...
