It should be noted that Ursa Major contains a great number of stars, but that only seven of them have a sufficient brightness (or magnitude) to be easily observed with the naked eye: these stars are a, B, y, d, e, g, and ,n . The star a is of 1st magnitude (scale of Hipparchus), B and y are of 2nd magnitude, the others are of ...
542. Preface to the Antiquities of the Jews [Books]
... . ENDNOTES (1 ) This preface of Josephus is excellent in its kind, and highly worthy the repeated perusal of the reader, before he set about the perusal of the work itself. (2 ) That is, all the Gentiles, both Greeks and Romans. (3 ) We may seasonably note here, that Josephus wrote his Seven Books of the Jewish War long before he wrote these his Antiquities. Those books of the War were published about A.D . 75, and these Antiquities, A. D. 93, about eighteen years later. (4 ) This Epaphroditus was certainly alive in the third year of Trajan, A.D . 100. ...
543. Cultural Amnesia [Books]
... , is a renewal of the Roman Saturnalia. If you read about the Roman Saturnalia you recognize immediately almost all of the rites of Hanukkah or Christmas, now celebrated at the end of December. They commemorate events of the days when the planet Saturn exploded into a nova, long before the events that I describe in Worlds in Collision, Seven days before the Universal Deluge began, the solar system became illuminated as brilliantly as if by a hundred suns. In the Deluge, not only the Earth but also other planets of the solar system were engulfed. Nature was wanton: the destruction was great, Mars, Mercury, and the Moon, as the space pictures now reveal ...

545. The Hermes Connection [Journals] [Aeon]
... spread its imbricate branches over the world. We are reminded of this once again in a poetic line from our own 12th century: "Here with a Loaf of Bread beneath the Bough," (9 ) where the prehistoric bough stems from the ancient imagery of the World Tree. (10) In this imagery we also find the seven light-worshipping paladins of Zarathustra, following (or encircling) their master as he returned to the world mount and ascended to the celestial sea beyond, not unlike his legendary counterpart, Jesus Christ, some six centuries later, all in a reenactment of a much earlier mythohistory. Hermeticism, as an occult philosophy, can be compared to Taoism ...

... do you mean? VELIKOVSKY: Of Stephenson, the one he claimed [as] the one, and you believe, it is the most strong evidence? HUBER: The most strong evidence against these catastrophes, in minus sixteen [presumably meaning the seventh century]-? VELIKOVSKY: Yes. HUBER: That is the one of minus seven hundred and eight, July 17. VELIKOVSKY: No, I asked you about the work of Stephenson. HUBER: Yes, that's the work of Stephenson. VELIKOVSKY: Did not Stephenson wrote about the eclipse discovered in the library of Ugarit? HUBER: I am not aware of- VELIKOVSKY: Are you aware of his publication in ...
... of [Rome] was setting the calendar in order, he ordained that there should be twice five months in his year... The month of Mars [March] was the first." ' 31 And "March was considered the first month until the reign of Numa...wrote Procopius of Caesarea."32 Some seven centuries later, Julius Caesar gave his name to the fifth month, Quintilis, and Augustus gave his name to the sixth month, Sextilis. Thus, in ancient Roman times, the calendar was March, April, May, June, Quintilis, Sextilis, September, October, November, December. There are ten months in all ...
548. The Electric Universe: Slide Presentation & Notes by Wallace Thornhill [Journals] [Aeon]
... [T ]hey are an unnecessary fiction required simply because astronomers consider gravity to be the only force driving the cosmos. An infinitely weak force requires an infinite concentration of mass to create the energetic events witnessed in deep space. The mathematical necessity does not make it real." (p . 32.) The questions packed into the seven pages from 25 to 32 of Thornhill's notebook titled "What is the Sun?" are enough to inspire many volumes of research. But Thornhill goes on for another 70 pages, describing how the electrical paradigm affects our understanding of the rest of the Solar System. At every scale, on every planet, satellite, asteroid and comet ...

... to the previous Solar System painstakingly reconstructed by those who have been labeled as Saturnists. Allusions to Mount Meru as the World Mountain and Axis Mundi are met with on many a page. The north pole is even claimed to have been the center of this mountain. Meru is even there described as having been shaped like a pillar. The seven rings said to have once encircled the Saturnian orb are also hinted at. One not only finds references to the "solar" chariot, but even that this chariot possessed only one wheel. The mythical "sun" is presented as having occupied the centre of Brahmanda, which translates as Brahma's egg. Not only that, but this ...
550. The Sun's Galactic Journey and Absolute Time [Books] [de Grazia books]
... one thousandth of the sphere of stars under close observation by astronomers. Thus the majority of reported star distances and luminosities are derived by theory rather than measurement. Of the twenty first-magnitude stars (the apparently brightest stars in the sky) only five are closer than 26 light years, the next five take us to 84 light-years; the next seven to 217 light years; and the last five to the measurement limit. In this sample are six supergiant stars; the parallax of one of these stars is only an estimate, two of the others are at the extreme limit, the last three are between 171 and 192 light-years distant. None of the most luminous supergiant stars are ...
