According to Lockyer (Dawn. Astr. p. 387.), in order to summarize the evidence regarding who built the northern and southern temples of Egypt, including the pyramids, “We must deal not only with the buildings, but with the associated mythology, or, rather, with the astronomical part of the mythology, for there seems to be very little doubt that in the earliest times, before knowledge replaced or controlled imagination, everything was mythologically everything else in turn.”
He added (Ib. pp. 387, 388.), “It was a commonplace either that a god should be the father of his mother, or that he should have no father.
“Thus, in one sense, Ra is father of all the gods; but in another Ptah is the creator of the egg of the sun because Capella setting heralded sunrise at a particular time of the year; and Isis is the mother of Horus because Phact = α Columbæ, Serk-t = α Centauri, Mut = γ Draconis, and other stars (Isis) did precisely the same; while in another connection Isis is the sister of Osiris, and therefore the mother of Horus. But here the relationship depends upon the association of the moon and warning star in the morning sky. I only offer these as suggestions.”
He concedes he is interpreting the system and making suggestions. I appreciate that. Most people don’t. There is not enough left in the historical record to make total sense of systems that are borrowed and reimagined as many times as the locations they were brought to. But there are patterns and themes that can be recognized, which is what I hope to impart onto my audience. If there is one concept that I could make crystal clear, it’s that the stories are not history, and much of the dating is guesswork. Much of what we consider history is observable astrotheology, but as the Italians say, “La mamma degli idioti è sempre incinta.”
Lockyer added (Ib.) , “But while all this proves that genealogies may be manufactured without either end or utility, we gather that the association of mythological personages with definite astronomical bodies may in time be of great help in such inquiries, and ultimately enable us to raise the veil of mystery by which these old ideas have of set purpose, and partly by these means, been hidden.
“There seems no doubt that we have got definite evidence that the very oldest mythological personages were closely connected either with the sun at some special time of the year, with the moon, or with the rising and setting of some star or another.”
Continuing on page 389, “The establishment of Amen-Ra gives us a fair indication of the changes which must have taken place among the early civilisations when the beginning of the year was altered. There can be no doubt, I think, that Chnemu was the first Sun-god of Southern Egypt; the cryosphinxes at Thebes are alone sufficient to prove it (Lanzoni also states that Amen-Ra sometimes appears with four heads of the goat, once special to Chnemu); and if so, then the southern people must have come from a region where the autumnal equinox marked the most important time of the year for their agricultural operations. And this year had eventually to give way, as we know it did, about 3700 BC, for one beginning at the summer solstice.”
What is the most important time of year for agricultural operations? Is it sowing or reaping? The Irish New Year begins on November 1st. The last fruits are in autumn, the harvesting season, where Judgment Day occurs, because you reap what you’ve sown. If you don’t sow enough, you’ll have to rely more on hunting or fishing for the winter. If you don’t have enough animals to slaughter and preserve their meat, then you will have to scour what’s left of Hades at a time when it is cold as Hell. Europe tends to make autumn and winter more important to reckoning the year, while the occidental Orient, think Asia Minor and the like, as well as the anomaly known as the calendar of Romulus, place importance on the vernal equinox.
Lockyer continued (Ib. pp. 389, 390.), “It has also to be borne in mind that the complicated headdress, including the goat’s horns, is represented in connection with Thoth Chnemu and Osiris. (Rawlinson, Vol. I., p. 371.)
“Later he was unquestionably a sun-god, but this would be certain to happen if the southern intruders worshipped the moon in the first line.
“Further, if in later times he represented both sun and moon, as he certainly did, it is not probable that he did so from the beginning. All the special symbolism refers to him as a Moon-god; he is certainly a Moon-god in the myth of Isis and Osiris, for he was cut into fourteen pieces, the number of days of the waning moon.”
Where is the inscription that supports Osiris being cut into fourteen pieces? Is Bacchus or Dionysos the moon because they were torn to pieces? No. Lockyer makes the case that Osiris, preceding Set, began as a lunar god. He cited Sayce (Hibbert Lectures, p. 155.), “According to the official religion of Chaldæa, the Sun-god was the offspring of the Moon-god. Such a belief could have arisen only where the Moon-god was the supreme object of worship… To the Semite and Sun-god was the lord and father of the gods.” (In modern German, even, the Moon is masculine and the Sun feminine.)
Too bad in ancient languages of Europe, the sun is masculine, such as Apollo Granno, which is a problem for Lockyer’s idea because there is nothing in the German alphabets that doesn’t come from Italy. So all this garbage about the Moon being masculine is inversion. Were this not the case, women wouldn’t have cycles that correspond to the phases of the Moon.
Not enough? I don’t see any of these scholars latching onto the antiquity of ancient Italian-Celtic languages other than Col. Charles Vallancey, Godfrey Higgins, and William Betham. If I don’t see these obvious details being accounted for, I can’t take a researcher seriously in terms of having a broad understanding of this system of priestcraft.
Even the chronological Greek influence had to be conceded as erroneous on account of the earliest Greek alphabets turning out to be Etruscan. It’s beyond obvious that Latin comes from Etruscan and other similar languages on that peninsula, not Greek. While all these scholars perpetuate ideas that support the narrative of Mosaic history, my work addresses many of these claims and uses language to demonstrate that it does not come from the Orient, and the use of this symbolism in Europe cannot be accounted for given the lack of affinity the ancient languages have to Indo-European languages and anything connected to the east, which demonstrates an opposite direction of cultural diffusion than currently believed and taught at an institutional level. The earliest mention of Moses by a Greek writer doesn’t occur till the end of the 3rd century AD. There is not one word in the entire body of Roman law directing the persecution of Christians. What you will see, if you do the work, is that almost everything you know regarding the Abrahamic cultures and religions is a product of the Middle Ages, and, if the Truth indeed makes you free, then it benefits no one long term to perpetuate these lies. The chickens always return to roost. If these subjects interest you, invest in the Spirit Whirled series and The Real Universal Empire.
