      You don't seem interested in the comments, but this is IMPORTANT:
      Thank you hugely! Fascinating! And from his first paragraph, the adage AS ABOVE, SO BELOW, had everything to do with the primordial skies! He's correct!
      But only in recent decades has PLASMA SCIENCE added to this belief, absolutely adds to it, globally! Forming the basis for ALL the religions, myths, traditions, petroglyphs, monumental cultures, ALL OF IT, and art! FROM THE SKIES OUR ANCESTORS WITNESSED & created their cultures, remembrances, and all the cave paintings, petroglyphs, & statuary, ALL of it, the human species recorded, remembered, and worshipped, heavenly observances, not ETs as ancient astronaut theory uses as proofs (not all, but most are wrongly identified as aliens, etc.). THIS MUST BE CORRECTED.
      SATURN, the PLANET, was once closer to EARTH! The ancients tell us that! Saturn was the sabbat, Saturday, Saturn's Day! Aka, AN, ANU, ATUM-RAH known by many names. And the Great Star, the planet VENUS, alongside the Cosmic Warrior, MARS.
      Once, these 3 planets were in close CONJUNCTION, aka THE GREAT WHEEL IN THE SKY!
      YT documentary explains The Electric Universe folks, offer a new astrophysics where it's not gravity, but electro-magnetism running the show!
      And Laboratory experiments with Plasma Discharges, exactly reflect the prehistoric art & petroglyphs! They saw PLASMA DISCHARGES in the skies, flying off Saturn,Venus, & Mars! And several catastrophic events so devastating, humans began sacrifices & other desperate measures, to appease "the GODS".

      SYMBOLS OF AN ANCIENT SKY, YT by The Thunderbolts Project.
      The proof is undeniable, what prehistoric people witnessed, remembered, recorded in various ways around the globe, and cultivated their beliefs; it made them "think", and wonder, and form elaborate systems... From then until now, we've mostly failed to comprehend their cosmic visions.
      PLASMA SCIENCE is an answer!

      This was a book I read over a decade ago when I was doing lots of research on mystery cults. Franz Cumont was one of the giants in that field in the late 1800s/early 1900s, so I read a good deal of his books all at once (The Oriental Religions in Roman Paganism, Mysteries of Mithra, and this one Astrology and Religion Among the Greeks and Romans). Most of his books are quite short and easy to read. Some of their information is quite dated, especially in regards to mystery cults, but they're still very much worth reading.

    Its a Solar Lunar Eclipse Calendar, of the Chaldeans, of Caledonia, Scotia, or Albion.
    Pythagoras means 'Heart of the Serpent', he was born in Sidon, a fishing Port in Phoenicia. His mother received a prophecy from the Oracle at Delphi that he would become a great Leader & Teacher. Sidon means 'Kingdom of the Fish', & the Essenes, who wrote the Dead Sea scrolls, worshipped Pythagoras. The Sarcophagus of Eshmun III found in Sidon names him as the 'Widow's Scion', aka Hiram Abiff, Founder of Freemasonry, of which Tyre was the premier Capital (at least equal to Thebes).
    In 911BC Rameses II married the Queen of Sidon, home of Jezebel (Daughter or consort of Baal, ie "Queen") founding Neo Assyrian Babylon, an alliance between Egypt & Hiram, Father of Jezebel, & King of Assyria; forming the Phoenician colonies, & building the Temple of Melqart to commemorate their alliance.
    The Si in Sidon is the basis of the Latin Exe, or X, and is the basis of the Cross, or Chi Rho that Constantine painted on his shields. Also known as the Cross of Tyre, or Cross of Baal, being Ra-El, or Ba'El. Using Euler's number to map irrational numbers also produces a Templar Cross: ie where Eclipses are most likely to occur, called the 'Saros' Cycle. This cross can also be seen around the neck of Nimrod in Assyria, consistent with the Union Jack, & Solstice Calendar found in the Vatican's Shiva Lingam. Shiva is the Hebrew word for 7, & their culture also found its way to Korea & Japan (via the Philippines) ultimately becoming Shintoism.
    It was the Phoenicians who gave their name to the Pole Star, _Phoenice,_ which they used to Navigate the Oceans using the Zodiac, that's what the Antikythera mechanism was for, & with it they wrote the Byblos Baal; what we now call the Bible. The first form of the Bible was written in 325BC & called 'Vaticanus Graecus', or 'Son of the Sacred Serpent', ie Sirius, the basis of the Sothic Calendar, which uses a Hex Decimal & base 60 system found in all Megalithic sites around the world.
    In the second century AD the Astronomer Valentinus Vettori transcribed it into a Lunar chart of 13 houses, what we now call the Zodiac. Horoscope means 'Star Watcher', or 'Time Keeper' & the Phoenician word for Saturn, or El, was *_Israel_* or _El,_ (Fruit) of Isis (Ishtar) & (Amin) Ra. Equally El is the 'Father' of Ra the Sun, & Consort of Isis the Earth Mother, ergo _'El Ptah'_ is the *Moon* or Set, the Stranger.
    Phoenicia was the interim between Egypt & Greece, with artisans & culture exceeding that of the Greeks, whom literally adopted the Phoenician Alphabet, which we still use to this day; sounding out words phonetically. 'Phoenician' is alliterated in 'Venetian', & 'Vikings', being Kings of the Sea, [Sea Pharoahs]
    El is the primary God of the Phoenicians, representing the offspring of Egypt, & his consort Astarte or Ishtar represents the Assyrian half of the alliance. Such lineages & alliances can be traced (through the naming of gods) to Ireland & the Vikings, Indonesia, the Americas; even as far away as Australia, & New Zealand.
    It denotes Sirius as 'Son' of Orion & Pleiades, which sits at 33 degrees of the Zodiac. The basis of the Sothic (Seth) Decan Calendar of the Egyptians. The New Moon in this position marks Rosh Hashanah, the Egyptian, Celtic, Phoenician, & Assyrian New Year, with the first New Moon of September, so called as it's the 7th House of the Zodiac, when the Sun is in Ophuichus.
    'Phoenix', 'Benben', or 'Bennu', is Egyptian for 'Heron', or Feathered 'Serpent'. It baptised itself in frankincense & myrrh at Baalbek, then alights atop the Great Pyramid, upon the Holy Grail, or Altar of Ra, every 630 years to take three days off the calendar; during the course of the first New Moon of Nisan, which means 'Prince'. The Capstone of Pyramids is even called the Benben or Bennu.
    The Phoenix is found in all religions, which are all Astrological Allegory for the Moon traversing the Constellations as a soul migrating from body to body. Thus is the basis of Joseph Campbell's Monomyth, or 'Hero's Journey' with the cycles & orbits of the planets serving as portents, omens, allies, etc. Thus Astrology was the Science of the Bronze Age & Reincarnation was the early teaching of the Gnostic Christian Church, & relates to the lineage of Kings: "The Pan is Dead! _Long live Pan!"_
    The Bennu is the Egyptian Phoenix, to Phoenicians the Hoyle, Etruscans saw birds as sacred too, as did Celts, & Picts. Hebrew & Iberia have the same root; meaning _'over'_ ie _'overseas'_ or 'those [whom travel] over [the] sea'. A colony called Iberia also appeared on the Eastern shores of the Black Sea, with the same Dolmen & Megalithic culture originating in Ireland and Brittany circa 4500BC.
    _Phoenician_ means 'Scion of the Phoenix', the first Bible: Vaticanus Graecus; 'Scion of the Sacred Serpent' (Prince). Then there's the Essenes; :Sons of Light', the Tuatha De Danaan; Sons of Light, Anunnaki; Sons of Light, Arthur Pendragon; Arthur [Thor] 'Son of the Dragon'. Chertoff is Russian for "Son of the Devil" & Dracula also means 'Scion of the Dragon'. Masons call themselves the "Brotherhood of the Great White Serpent", & the Ziggurat of Anu denotes her as a great white Serpent too, while at New Grange & the Bru na Boinne, Ireland (4000BC) the white quartz ramparts also denote the Moon. The Moon itself travels either side of the Solar Elliptic by 5 degrees through specific constellations in a serpentine fashion that is always changing, but repeats every 19 years, the time it took to train a Druid or Magi, Magi meaning 'Teacher'. The Phoenix is also associated with this sacred number 19.
    "Pharoah" means 'Great House' or 'House of Light' & Cairo used to be called Babel. Pharaohs were called 'Commander in Chief' & wore a hooded crown representing feathers, as do Native American Chiefs, ie the Feathered Serpent. Aztecs also had 'Serpent Kings', (Canaan means Serpent Kings, & Sidon was a Son of Canaan & Great Grandson of Noah) who were called to lead with "cunning & guile" being the virtue of their "right to rule"; being seen as "just" in public, while shrewd in private. "As wise as Serpents, (while appearing as) _gentle_ as Doves." The old Egyptian flag of an Eagle holding a Snake is also reflected in the Modern Mexican flag, denoting the Constellations of Serpentis (13th sign of the Zodiac) and Aquila.
    The dimensions & 12 mathematical constants of the Great Pyramid are also found in New Grange, & Stonehenge, as well as in Watson Brake, (2500BC) & Teotihuacan, which correlates to the Phoenician/ Sumerian Seximal system, which is what our modern systems of time are based on, unlocking a fractal pattern reflected in the musical chord, electrical resistance, relative Planetary orbits, indeed; throughout _all_ creation.
    Officially no one knows who invented Astrology, the Zodiac, navigation by the stars, or time keeping. But whoever built the pyramids, & pioneered the 24hr clock in Egypt 5000 years ago already knew the exact dimensions of the Earth, & the speed of light. Because these can all be calculated using these Megalithic sites as a Surveyor use a Theodolite. Specifically at Teotihuacan; 230 degrees opposite Cairo, & with the exact same footprint. The ideal positions to determine the speed of light using the transit of Venus, allowing for accurate Longitude for Maritime navigation. Capt Cook did the same thing in 1774 when he 'discovered' Easter Island.
    The only culture that fits the bill was wiped out "not one stone upon the other" by the Romans in 146BC. Tyre, the capital of Phoenicia (Israel) sat just offshore from Ursu Salaam: City of the New Moon; City [or 'Rock'] of Peace; root of the name _'Jerusalem'_ & was also seized by Rome in 70AD after a 3.5 year siege. The gap between is 216 years (6x6x6).
    Greek Dionysians built the Temple of Solomon (now called the Temple of Melqart) representing the Solar Lunar (Solomonic) Metonic Calendar on which this system is based. They also carried mirrors, same as Magi, Druids, Greeks, & Egyptian scholars. These Mirrors are Astrological charts called 'Cycladic _Pans'_ & record the cycles of the planets. The first Temple of Melqart ( Phoenician Horus, Hercules, Pan, Thor) represents the 13th Constellation of Ophiuchus or 'Serpent Bearer' (hence Orphic Serpent worship) & had pillars of Emerald (Jasper) & Gold, ie Isis (Tree of Life) and Osiris (Tree of Knowledge). The Jerusalem Temple only took payment in "Shekels of Tyre" a currency minted during the Israelite rebellion against Rome, hence _"give that which is Caesar's unto Caesar"_
    When Alexander sacked Tyre in 332BC they relocated to Carthage meaning "New City" or New Jerusalem, & built a second temple with Pillars of Bronze. Nebuchadnezzar also sieged Tyre for 13 years, taking the City captive in 573BC: the same time as the biblical account, & again the Romans in 70AD after a 3.5 year siege, also consistent with the same biblical accounts.
    Palaset was the name of a tribe of the Sea Peoples, Pallas _Set_ denotes the New Moon of Ammun Ra rising in Gemini, the *Pallas* Constellation of the Twins "that stand before Orion", due West of the Temple between the Gates [Pillars] of Gibraltar; "Gabriel's Altar", ie 'Pallas Stein', or Pallas Stone, 'Phallus' or Philosopher's Stone: the _"Rising Son"._ So 'Wormwood', like 'Tyre' means 'Bitter Rock', for the same reason; as the Son rising from the 'Bitter' [Salt or 'Black'] Sea of the Underworld; The 'Black Rock' or 'Gatestone' 🌑
    The Cross of Tyre or Ba'El ❌ represents Lunar maximums & minimums & correlates with the Cross Quarter days of the Solstice Calendar. Align the Cross ❌ Chi Rho Christian ✝️ & Star 🔯 to the Zodiac, & you have a Compass & Timepiece that correlates to the Nautical Mile; allowing for global Maritime navigation.
    It is in fact an Astrological allegory for a Sothic Metonic Saros Zodiac Calendar using Accusations in a Mirror 🪞

      There is no seprent nor heart in the name of Pythagoras, "Pythios" is one of the Apollo's theonyms.
      Sidon means Fishery/fish place, it does not mean "Kingdom of the fish", the only suffix in Phoenician language that meant king (so kingdom as well) was MLK, like in the: Moloch, Melkart, Melchior etc. It is still visible in modern Semitic languages eg. Arabic: Malik.
      Hiram Abiff is loosely based on biblical king Hiram, but it is 18th century mythical character from Masonic tradition.
      There is a debate about influence of Neo-pythagoreans on Essenes, but it is at least controversial.
      Sorry, but only in your first paragraph there are many simple mistakes, that it's hard to take the rest seriously, but Im open to disscuss it. Keep searching. Bless your day!

    • @MrBlazingup420
      @MrBlazingup420 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@arturhashmi6281 I'm wondering where the Hebrew word for 'fish' is at in the word Sidon, it must come from some other language than Hebrew, because Hebrew word dag, means "fish". pronounced "DAHG" (Dog). In Hebrew, "si" is not a standalone word with a specific meaning, but is most likely a diminutive form of the name "Simon," which means "to hear", Hebrew, "don" (written as "אדון" - "adon") means "lord," "master," or "owner," essentially signifying a position of authority or leadership.
      Sidon "Listen to the Master".
      The Fisher King is a mysterious figure in Arthurian legend and literature who is the keeper of the Holy Grail and a protector of his lands. The Fisher King is wounded by his own spear, and the wound will not heal. The wound is symbolic of the land's suffering, as the king is unable to perform his duties. The wound is often depicted as a castration or other loss of fertility.
      In Latin, Spiculum means Spear, it the little bloody red spot you find the sun next to on the day of the Winter Solstice. Spiculum is found in Sagittarius, known as The Lagoon Nebula, a body of water that the sun must cross on the day that it stops moving on the southeastern horizon for 3 days.
      In astrology, Sagittarius is the hips and thighs, Scorpio is the sexual organ, squeezed in between is Ophiuchus, the Womb, Sagittarius was married to the first physician known as Bau-Gula, the mother of the dying and rising god of healing, she was the goddess of Dogs, all physicians know, you place the Speculum into the woman where babies come out.
      The Sumerian word for Great is "Gal" which is the same word for Cup, a Larger Fancy cup made of precious metals, what you would call a Grail.
      Sagittarius was Pabilsag, the father of Damu the Child, seen as the Cup shaped head of Draco and it's first curl, known as the Swine Star, the Gal Gal, the Great Cup.
      The Sumerian word for Pig is Sah, that is the Egyptian name for Orion, Sahu the Hidden One.
      Orion stands in front of the Silver Gate of Man, Sagittarius stands in front of the Golden Gate of the Gods.
      Play the words "Say There Is A Guest" in reverse, you hear it echo "Sagittarius", playing "They All Rule" in reverse will echo "Orion".
      Let me see you figure that out, because they are not the only ones that speak.

    I am yet to know where the Chaldeans came from, one member claimed they came from NE Turkey and settled in central Iraq. Now it seemed they were Greeks. Who were they, where did they came from? Any help will be appreciated.

    • @arturhashmi6281
      @arturhashmi6281 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Chaldeans were one of the many Semitic tribes in Mesopotamia, Chaldea was a region in southern Babylon and later it became identified with the whole southern Mesopotamia, but Greeks used the term Chaldaios to describe Babylonians in general and in the late antiquity it could by synonym of any eastern scholar/astronomer etc. In the same way some of the Greeks used the term Syrian to describe any western Semitic people or Magi to describe any eastern sages, even if they were not Persian. It is rather inaccuracy of ancient people, so we can't be sure everytime we read about Chaldeans from Greek sources, that they are infact the same people, but they are certainly not Greeks and nobody ever suggested that in this text nor any other. Babylonians from the 500bc were different people then Babylonians from 2000bc, they just preserved the ethnonym, while being different culture. Until this day some Syrian people identify as Chaldeans while original Chaldeans were enslaved by Assyrian empire, so it shows how complex the answers for your question can be, there is more then one answer, thats for sure.

    Thank you hugely! Fascinating! And from his first paragraph, the adage AS ABOVE, SO BELOW, had everything to do with the primordial skies! He's correct!
    But only in recent decades has PLASMA SCIENCE added to this belief, absolutely adds to it, globally! Forming the basis for ALL the religions, myths, traditions, petroglyphs, monumental cultures, ALL OF IT, and art! FROM THE SKIES OUR ANCESTORS WITNESSED & created their cultures, remembrances, and all the cave paintings, petroglyphs, & statuary, ALL of it, the human species recorded, remembered, and worshipped, heavenly observances, not ETs as ancient astronaut theory uses as proofs (not all, but most are wrongly identified as aliens, etc.). THIS MUST BE CORRECTED.
    SATURN, the PLANET, was once closer to EARTH! The ancients tell us that! Saturn was the sabbat, Saturday, Saturn's Day! Aka, AN, ANU, ATUM-RAH known by many names. And the Great Star, the planet VENUS, alongside the Cosmic Warrior, MARS.
    Once, these 3 planets were in close CONJUNCTION, aka THE GREAT WHEEL IN THE SKY!
    YT documentary explains The Electric Universe folks, offer a new astrophysics where it's not gravity, but electro-magnetism running the show!
    And Laboratory experiments with Plasma Discharges, exactly reflect the prehistoric art & petroglyphs! They saw PLASMA DISCHARGES in the skies, flying off Saturn,Venus, & Mars! And several catastrophic events so devastating, humans began sacrifices & other desperate measures, to appease "the GODS".

    The proof is undeniable, what prehistoric people witnessed, remembered, recorded in various ways around the globe, and cultivated their beliefs; it made them "think", and wonder, and form elaborate systems... From then until now, we've mostly failed to comprehend their cosmic visions.
    PLASMA SCIENCE is an answer!

      For every action there is the opposite and equal
      As without, so within
      Therefore do unto others as you would have them do unto you, and you will be repaid sevenfold

    How does Franz Cumont get around the fact, ancient Sumerians gods were associated with the stars and groupings of stars, 1000's of years before 850 BC date he has. According to historical records, astrology, which later developed into astronomy, is considered to have originated with the Sumerians, who were the first civilization to systematically observe and interpret celestial movements, laying the foundation for both fields by tracking the positions of stars and planets and associating them with earthly events; this practice eventually evolved into the astrological systems we know today.
    So I say Franz Cumont is BS, and a Thumbs Down, your first by the looks of it.
