... From "Worlds in Collision" © 1950 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents The Synodical Year Of Venus The planet Venus, at the present time, revolves around the sun in 224.7 days, which is the sidereal year of the planet. However, seen from the earth, which revolves around the sun on a larger orbit and at a lower speed, Venus returns to the same position with respect to the earth after 584 days, which is its synodical year. It rises before the sun, earlier every day for seventy-one days, until it reaches the western elongation or its westernmost point away from the rising sun. Each morning thereafter the Morning ...
42. On Morrison: Some Final Remarks (Forum) [Journals] [Kronos]
... papers, and in some cases he has badly misread my arguments. Since I believe the record should be cleared for your readers, I request the courtesy of an opportunity to reply in your pages to Mr. Juergens. References are to volume [III:2 or IV:2 ] and page number of his two papers. Because Venus and the Moon appear to offer the most clear-cut astronomical opportunity to test Velikovsky's theories, I will limit my discussion to these two objects. Let me begin with the "Coup de Grâce" issue of surface relief on Venus as an indication that internal energy is not a major contributor to the high surface temperature. Juergens (IV, ...

44. The Many Faces Of Venus - The Planet Venus in Ancient Myth and Religion by Ev Cochrane (Book Review). C&C Review 2002:1 [Journals] [SIS Review]
... From: SIS Chronology & Catastrophism Review 2002:1 (Jul 2002) Home | Issue Contents Book Review The Many Faces Of Venus - The Planet Venus in Ancient Myth and Religion by Ev Cochrane 2001, AEON Press, 601 Hayward, Ames, IO 50014, USA Jill Abery Four years ago I had the pleasure of reviewing Ev Cochrane's first book in this series, about the planet Mars. Now he has begun to tackle the planet Venus in like fashion but such is the complexity and magnitude of the mythological evidence that this book is described as only the first in a multi-volume series. As with Martian Metamorphoses (reviewed in C&CR 1998:1 ), ...
45. Aphrodite - The Moon or Venus? [Journals] [SIS Review]
... Contents A secondary thesis of "Worlds in Collision" is that the astral nature of ancient religions has so far been largely ignored by scholars - in particular, the planetary character of some Greek deities has been overlooked. This article examines the identity of one of these and suggests an answer to the question: - Aphrodite - The Moon or Venus?Peter James IMMANUEL VELIKOVSKY's reconstruction of the solar system's recent history has thrown a completely new light on the question of the origin of religions. In "Worlds in Collision" he draws our attention to the Homeric Hymn to Ares" (1 ), which explicitly refers to that deity as a planet god - the hymn leaves no ...

48. The Mythical History of the Comet Venus (Part I) [Journals] [Aeon]
... From: Aeon II:4 (1991) Home | Issue Contents The Mythical History of the Comet Venus (Part I)David Talbott INTRODUCTION Taking the mythically-based model of the polar configuration as a reference,(1 ) it is possible to reconstruct from ancient testimony the remarkable history of the planet Venus in prehistoric times. The integrity of this reconstruction will, in turn, lend substantial verification to the model by demonstrating that here- as in other instances previously noted- the model satisfies the requirements of a general theory: it accommodates and explains the data in a consistent way, while removing countless anomalies that have frustrated previous efforts to place ancient myths and symbols in a ...
49. Venus Moves Irregularly, Part 1 Venus Ch.10 (Worlds in Collision) [Velikovsky] [Velikovsky Worlds in Collision]
... From "Worlds in Collision" © 1950 by Immanuel Velikovsky | FULL TEXT NOT AVAILABLE Contents Venus Moves Irregularly In the library of Assurbanipal in Nineveh were stored astronomical books of his and of previous ages; in the ruins of this library Sir Henry Layard found the Venus tablets.(14) There arose the question: From what period do the observations of these tablets date? Schiaparelli investigated this problem and "as an example of method his work is excellent."(15) He decided that "the inquiry could be limited to the seventh and eighth centuries." The year-formula of an early king, Ammizaduga, was discovered on one of the tablets, and since ...
50. The Ninsianna tablets, a preliminary reconstruction [Journals] [SIS Review]
... is also a specialist in marine navigation, having served in the Royal Naval Volunteer Reserve since 1936. His earlier articles in the Review have dealt with astronomical records from Egypt and with the 6th-century Hindu astronomical manual, the Panchasiddhantika. A detailed analysis is presented of the succession of disturbances of the Earth's motions indicated by the Ninsianna (Ammisaduqa) Venus tablets. The principal single outcome is a small expansion of the Solar System, an approximate 1% expansion of the orbit of the Earth which was initiated about 882 BC and which was complete by about 729 BC. In the course of this expansion, Venus pushed the Earth out towards Mars, causing the Earth to start pushing against ...
