191. Thoth Vol I, No. 19: July 16, 1997 [Journals] [Thoth]
... Maya name for the same god, Kulkulkan, carries an equivalent meaning, as does the Quiché figure, Gucumatz. The same figure appears to have entered Zuni ritual as the plumed serpent Kolowisi and Hopi ritual as the plumed serpent Palulukong. Though the figure of Quetzalcoatl is complex and appears to combine originally distinct traditions, the identification of the spiraling serpent itself (the transformed heart-soul) with Venus has survived even into modern times. Some of the Tzotzil groups, for example, still describe Venus as "the Big Serpent" (Mukta Ch'on.) Among the Chichimec tribes, Venus is still remembered as the "Serpent Cloud." Is it significant, then, that Aztec ...

192. Monitor [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... another researcher thinks dogs were domesticated 40,000 years ago in Eurasia: and traces of dairy products from sites in Britain, dated to 6.000 years ago, predate a milking scene on a Sumerian frieze by 1,500 years. TWISTED EVIDENCE (The Hittites, by 0 R Gurney. 1975. p.192) The spiral associations of the world pillar of myth is given a new twist in a seal impression (probably Mitannian) on which the ubiquitous central figure with raised arms. and flanked by two others. has his legs anatomically impossibly twisted twice. Thanks are due to all those who send in material for Monitor. Please keep it coming in and ...

... In revenge Quetzalcoatl attacked and killed the 400 warriors ( = they were rendered harmless). Quetzalcoatl was also regarded as most handsome, bright, broad of brow, WHITE, and had a FAIR beard .. .. .. yet his face was smeared with soot (like Cinderella). He wore a knecklace of sea shells (spirals) and a had a TAIL that was long and resembled the prominent and colourful tail of the quetzal bird. Europeans, when hearing these stories of a white hero god that had brought the benefits of civilisation to the Americas many years before them, assumed they had been visited by a white man, a great teacher. However, ...

... primitive savage to hunter-gatherer to modern urbanite. That is the fairy tale, not catastrophism, for, if we are interpreting the evidence correctly, the history of our planet and its inhabitants is jerky and inconsistent, with periods of peace punctuated by outbursts of violence. If social and biological life has "evolved," it has done that spirally and spasmodically. Our task now is to pin the thing down, to sort it out and assign each item of data correctly to form a picture of what really happened. That however is not at all easy, because often the signatures are blurred or are too general or occur repeatedly, and as a result a number of different ...

195. ADS Abstracts [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... . Some properties of electrical discharges are described, including rate of propagation, magnetic fields, the pinch effect, and plasma jets. These phenomena and objects are identified as being due to or characterized by electrical discharges: solar flares, the variation in long-period variables, the filamentary structure of the Crab Nebula, novae, radio galaxies, barred spirals, quasars, and the jet of M 87. Further mythological evidence for ancient knowledge of variable stars by Wilk, Stephen R. in The Journal of the American Association of Variable Star Observers, vol. 27, no. 2, p. 171 (www.aavso.org/journal/). I suggest that the ...

196. Remarks on Solar Jet Stream Weather [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... in Jupiter's atmosphere. There will be no understanding of the sunspot cycle until the true first cause of solar dynamics is recognized. I have theorised that it is caused by the passage of the Sun across giant Birkeland current filaments in the tenuous plasma of interstellar space, flowing along the galactic arm. That such currents exist is shown by the spiral magnetic fields wrapped around our arm of the Milky Way. It explains at once the variability of the cycle and the solar field reversal during each cycle. Wal Thornhill (walt@netinfo.com.au) ...

... a one per thousand stretching deformation of the Earth in an oblique direction. This could be produced by the tidal action of a mass like that of Mars passing at a distance less than 15 000 km. The gyroscope Earth then performs a tumbling motion while its shape relaxes to an equilibrium with a displaced equatorial belt. Geographically, the poles spiral to the new position, requiring about 400 days for a turn. Angular momentum is conserved, and the rotation axis points to the same star before and after the event. Since the present planetary system with its motion calculated backwards does not show a close encounter between Earth and a planet, the passing mass must have been an additional ...

... drastically? The best I can ask for is a willingness to consider an argument. I could show you, for example, that certain celestial images preoccupied ancient man to the point of an obsession. A great cosmic wheel in the sky. The pyramid of the sun. The eye of heaven. Also the ship of heaven, a spiraling serpent, the raging goddess, and four "winds" of the sky. The problem for conventional perspectives is that these images are far, far removed from anything we see in the heavens today. But that is only the beginning of the theoretical challenge. As soon as you realize that far-flung cultures, though employing different symbols, ...

199. Electricity in Astronomy /3 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... /sec for 10 to 100 million years: a total distance per jet of 150 to 1500 thousand light years. The diameter of our galaxy is about 100,000 light years, so the lengths of its main galactic arms would be of this order of size. Deflection of jets due to the magnetic fields of adjacent galaxies would produce spiral arms, but if the discharge channel was a straight line in the absence of an appreciable magnetic field, then it seems possible that a "lump" of material could be formed, similar to the case of the ball of ice falling 9 minutes after a single violent stroke of lightning. The material in the channel would be travelling ...

200. Aviation Week & Space Technology [Journals] [SIS Internet Digest]
... pubinfo/PR/96/38.html Following is a partial quote from the report: "Analogous to Earth's tornadoes, the large difference in temperature between the hot surface and cold interior of the interstellar clouds, combined with the pressure of starlight, may produce strong horizontal shear to twist the clouds into their tornado-like appearance. While the spiral shapes suggest the clouds are twisting, future observations will be needed to confirm that." I would like you to note the exceedingly weak explanation for the formation of the "twisters". It is yet another manifestation of astronomers clinging to simple gas models rather than more complex plasma models. It should also be noted that earthly tornados ...
