... Venus Worship and Ancient China Eric Miller Thank you. Well I was very glad to hear that dissertation there on the re- synchronization of ancient culture. It solved one of my biggest problems. And as far as China's concerned, I'm a yellow fever type person. So, I was very pleased about that. I was going to go through Velikovsky, show that his dating of 687 B.C . for the second catastrophic event is probably an error, that Velikovsky's sources are incorrect as to his Chinese sources. He misses and misquotes by, sometimes, 500 years. But amongst everyone here, we all by now know that Velikovsky, unlike the rest of ...

144. The Orbits of Mars, Earth and Venus [Journals] [Pensee]
... From: Pensée Vol. 2 No 2: (May 1972) "Immanuel Velikovsky Reconsidered I" Home | Issue Contents The Orbits of Mars, Earth and Venus Lynn Rose and Raymond Vaughan The following orbits are generally consistent with Velikovsky's sequence of events following Venus' origination from Jupiter; they also satisfy conservation of angular momentum and do not violate (per se) conservation of energy. The orbits are given here by semi-major axis and eccentricity. The semi-major axis is the first figure in the parentheses; it is expressed in Astronomical Units. Other orbital parameters can be calculated in terms of these two. Orbits during the period after Venus' origination from Jupiter and before Venus ...
145. The Four-planet System, Part 1 Venus Ch.8 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... From "Worlds in Collision" © 1950 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents The Four-planet System By asserting that the planet Venus was born in the first half of the second millennium, I assume also that in the third millennium only four planets could have been seen, and that in astronomical charts of this early period the planet Venus cannot be found. In an ancient Hindu table of planets, attributed to the year -3102, Venus alone among the visible planets is absent.(36) The Brahmans of the early period did not know the five-planet system,(37) and only in a later (" middle") period did the Brahmans speak of ...
146. The Ramesside Star Tables and Reade's Venus Tablet Reconstruction [Journals] [SIS Workshop]
... From: SIS Chronology and Catastrophism Workshop 1989 No 1 (May 1989) Home | Issue Contents The Ramesside Star Tables and Reade's Venus Tablet Reconstruction by John D. Weir The Ramesside Star Tables give the diurnal motion of the stars over a complete year; but the observations after the first three months are not consistent with the calculated data. Michael G. Reade pointed this out in 1979 [1 ], giving his tentative conclusions as follows: "That the axis of the earth was forced out of its hitherto normal alignment with the stars at a season after the summer solstice, that the disturbance was a sustained one rather than a shock one, and that it was ...
... theory becomes established dogma. In dealing with Velikovsky's predictions, Sagan states, "My conclusion is that when Velikovsky is original he is very likely wrong, and that when right, the idea has been pre-empted by earlier workers. There are a large number of cases where he is neither right nor original [and] that the surface of Venus is hot, which is clearly less central to his hypothesis." 3 Velikovsky on page 371 of Worlds in Collision, explains why he predicts that planet Venus must be hot: "Venus experienced in quick succession its birth and expulsion under violent conditions; an existence as a comet on an ellipse which approached the sun closely; two ...
148. Maya Cosmos: A Saturnian Interpretation (Part II) [Journals] [Aeon]
... unspecified span of time. At one particular stage, the actors in this cosmic opera were lined up above Earth's north polar region, hence the term Polar Configuration. During this particular phase, the gods were three in number (a sacred numeral to both Olmec and Maya) and are known today by their English planetary names of Saturn, Venus, and Mars. These bodies were in a rough line and in that order, with Mars being the closest to Earth's north pole. During this dawn of civilization, Saturn was probably a brown dwarf star. [4 ] Being ten to fifteen times the diameter of Venus, the planet Saturn was the ancient god par excellence, ...
149. Day Star [Journals] [Aeon]
... the recent history of the Solar System or whether it was subject to drastic rearrangement, as there is every reason to suppose that Mars maintained its bloody color in prehistoric times. Ancient myth, in fact, confirms as much. In other cases, however, the original significance of the stellar nomenclature is less obvious. The Maya referred to Venus by the name of Nohoch ich, "Great Eye," a most peculiar appellation. [4 ] Inasmuch as the Maya were devoted skywatchers and interested in the movements of Venus to the point of obsession, it stands to reason that this epithet describes something they deemed essential about the planet's appearance or behavior. That the epithet had ...
150. The Birth of Athena [Journals] [Aeon]
... us by the ancient Greeks- is a tell-tale sign of just how far we are from achieving a real understanding of Greek mythology. Velikovsky's Athena Perhaps the most novel explanation of Athena's birth was that offered by Immanuel Velikovsky, who saw in the myth an ancient cataclysm associated with the planet Jupiter (Zeus), one in which the planet Venus (Athena) was born from the giant planet in comet-like form. Velikovsky's thesis, presented in 1950 in the book Worlds in Collision, inspired an extensive and often vitriolic debate, one which shows little sign of abating. (11) At first sight Velikovsky's hypothesis hardly inspires confidence, nor would it appear to represent an improvement upon ...
