... , we find that AD 139 minus 8 Egyptian cycles of 1,460 years each =11,542 BC 712 BC minus 6 Assyrian periods of 1,805 years each =11,542 BC Another even more directly `astronomical' figure from Egypt can be obtained from the famous Zodiac of Dendera. Its signs are arranged in a spiral, hence it is possible to ascertain its `first sign', which is Leo. At present Leo is the zodiacal sign of August. Supposing that the Egyptians reckoned the beginning of the year from the most logical point, the vernal equinox, we can calculate that the year started in the sign of Leo at about 11, ...

222. Thoth Vol III, No. 13: Oct 15, 1999 [Journals] [Thoth]
... inappropriate for the experts to ignore the connection of sacred dances to celestial phenomena, since all such ritual performances repeated critical junctures in the lives of GODS. The turning, twisting motion (_ strophe_) of the prototypical star is legendary and is the basis of the global connection of this star, Venus, to the simple curl, spiral, and whorl. And speaking of the turning motion of Venus, if cataSTRophe is in fact connected to the same root as STaR, then so must the word apoSTRophe, since it expresses the same Greek root. The expected connection is definitely there. Aphrodite (Venus) was CALLED Apostrophia. A loose counterpart would be the Latin ...

223. The Ship of Heaven [Journals] [Aeon]
... bit premature to dwell on their roles here (their interacting symbols will be the subject of my next article), we would be amiss in ignoring altogether their symbolic ties to the ship of the sun. Towing Rope In the illustrated phase of the polar configuration under discussion, the planet Venus is the small body at the end of the spiralling, comet-like stream appearing to curl out from the band. Considerable evidence indicates that Venus is revolving around the polar axis in the opposite direction of the Earth's rotation, because it moves in the direction of the visual revolution of the crescent, only faster (that is, while the apparent revolution of the crescent is due to the rotation ...

... of the manner of the birth of his progeny: they are offspring' the truest and most literal sense of the word! The ice debris left the dying satellite at the zenith and nadir points. Maid and Man' is only a figure of speech, conveying that the blocks of the debris had the power of begetting further phenomena they spiralled closer. The Six headed Son, Thrudhgelmir (the' whirling yeller'), may have been a cloud of several especially large fragments of the zenith side, in which case the other fragments came from the nadir side. From the seat of the Teuton forefathers, in the northern-zone refuge, the nadir stream may have been interpreted ...

... crescent holding in its hollow a central star. A crescent on the great sphere of the "sun". A sun standing motionless at the center of heaven. A "sun" occupying the summit of the world axis. A celestial column rising along the polar axis to support a great crescent "moon". A star with a spiraling tail. A star carrying inside itself an unexplained dark or reddish sphere. The theoretical problem is that, from one ancient nation to another, there is far more consistency to these "astronomical absurdities" than is rationally conceivable if they arose from imagination somehow driven to DENY natural experience. And that's the dilemma in a nutshell: random ...

226. The Cosmic String of Pearls [Journals] [Aeon]
... as equivalent symbolical expressions of a common, morphological prototype, a prototype that I would propose to call the string of pearls aspect of the mythical archetype. At some point in time during the "myth-making epoch," mankind perceived a string of seven or nine sphere-like objects over the pole, which replaced the stable cylindrical, conical, or spiral form of the axis. The memory of this observation was preserved in an endless series of creative, symbolical expressions of this string, which became the segmented axis, a sub-category of the symbolism of the axis mundi that has escaped recognition and defied explanation by symbolists up until the present day. Thus, if you understand the word for ...

227. Forum [Journals] [Aeon]
... the proto-Saturnian system was originally located at the outer periphery of the Solar system, or one can posit that it was entirely outside that system and traveling alone in space. If we accept the first postulate, it would burden the proto-Saturnian system with two separate velocities: (1 ) its travel through the Bok globule and (2 ) its spiral inward which would bring both Saturn and Earth to their present orbits. And let us, for now, ignore the presence of any other planets in proto-Saturn's family. The second postulate, however, would mean that the proto-Saturnian system had been spiraling in from time immemorial which, once we retrocalculate it far back enough, would take it ...

... know, the Great Wind was partly caused by the atmosphere, which had also been piled up in the tropical zone, flowing off' north and south under cyclonic phenomena in the process of its spreading itself evenly over all the Earth again. But chiefly the great wind was caused by satellitic wreckage, mainly the blocks from the satellite's glaciosphere, spiralling towards the Earth and finally shooting practically tangentially into the terrestrial atmosphere. Immediately after each block had entered the uppermost rare layers of the atmosphere it felt the increased resistance and the pitch of its spiral path became more pronounced. Also the friction which each ice-block experienced in the dense medium generated heat' which caused the block to splinter into ...

... Al-Tur which means The Mountain' [117]. This connection did not escape Talbott, who has provided intriguing insights concerning the associations between the altar, the world mountain, the cosmic pillar and other Saturnian elements [118]. Other examples of this motif are encountered in depictions of Mithras, shown with a serpent coiled around him in spiral fashion, and of the Mithraic Kronos, or Aion, who is likewise shown within the coils of a spiralling snake [119]. Variants of the same motif are to be found in the serpent-footed Yahweh on coins of the Hellenistic period [120]. That Yahweh originated as a personification of Saturn was well understood by William Heidel ...

... troposphere, from solar flares, periodic discharges in the giant envelopes of gases surrounding certain variable stars, and the enormous eruptions moving through the entire volumes of certain "active" galaxies (see, 1966a). He proposed that an electrical discharge liberating energy comparable to that ascribed to the => quasars was capable of transforming elliptical galaxies into spirals. It would seem that the quasar phenomenon is in fact a galaxy in transformation. This is the grandest of the cosmic lightning discharges; in its wake the spiral arms of the galaxy form with their "metal-rich" stars. Bruce speculated that in the enormous temperatures generated in these discharges, nucleosynthesis transmutes smaller atoms into larger ones. ...
