A chicken has a past inside his dark shell,
before having used his egg tooth to poke through his confinement, out
into the Sun light enabling him full awareness:
.
...
He was Ta'aroa
the unique one, the ancestor of all gods, the creator of the
universe whose natures were myriad, whose backbone was the
ridgepole of the world, whose ribs were its supporters. The
shell was called Rumia, Upset.
Becoming
aware at last of his own existence and oppressed by a yearning
loneliness Ta'aroa broke open his shell and, looking out,
beheld the black limitless expanse of empty space. Hopefully, he
shouted, but no voice answered him. He was alone in the vast
cosmos ...
The beginning of side a on the G tablet probably
corresponds to the time of coming out from the mists of early
dawn, emerging into the full spring light. Before was the
murky time of the Pleiades and the origin of Murugan:
His 6 faces were equal and in no direction was his
face in the shadows. This meant Murugan was a Sun person. We
can contrast his 6 faces with the 2 faces of the Moon 'door' person Janus:
...
In other words, the ancient Druidic religion based on the oak-cult will be swept
away by Christianity and the door - the god Llyr - will languish forgotten in
the Castle of Arianrhod, the Corona Borealis. This helps us to understand
the relationship at Rome of Janus and the White Goddess Cardea who is ... the
Goddess of Hinges who came to Rome from Alba Longa. She was the hinge on which
the year swung - the ancient Latin, not the Etruscan year - and her importance
as such is recorded in the Latin adjective cardinalis - as we say in
English 'of cardinal importance - which was also applied to the four main winds;
for winds were considered as under the sole direction of the Great Goddess until
Classical times.
As
Cardea she ruled over the Celestial Hinge at the back of the North Wind around
which, as Varro explains in his De Re Rustica, the mill-stone of the
Universe revolves. This conception appears most plainly in the Norse Edda,
where the giantesses Fenja and Menja, who turn the monstrous mill-stone Grotte
in the cold polar night, stand for the White Goddess in her complementary moods
of creation and destruction. Elsewhere in Norse mythology the Goddess is
nine-fold: the nine giantesses who were joint-mothers of the hero Rig, alias
Heimdall, the inventor of the Norse social system, similarly turned the cosmic
mill ...
The Pleiades (Tau-ono, 6 'stones') were at
the 'door' to a new Sun year:

We should notice the 'heart', the
star σ Scorpii which would have been visible close
to the Full Moon in the night of MARCH 21, and which
in rongorongo times would had advanced ca 64 nights
to around November 23. Observations in the night via
the nakshatra method were useful for determining the
position of the Sun. When the Full Moon was in the
Scorpion, then the Sun was in the Bull.
... the name [Vindler, one of the
epithets of Heimdall] is a
subform of vindill and comes from
vinda, to twist or turn, wind, to
turn anything around rapidly. As the
epithet 'the turner' is given to that
god who brought friction-fire
(bore-fire) to man, and who is himself
the personification of this fire, then
it must be synonymous with 'the borer'
...
The Sibyl's prophecy does not end with
the
catastrophes,
but it moves from the tragic to the
lydic mode, to sing of the dawning of
the new age:
Now do I see / the Earth anew / Rise all
green / from the waves again ... / Then
fields unsowed / bear ripened fruit /
All ills grow better
...
The
number of nurses was 6, though, and not
9:
...
In Hindu mythology, the god Murugan
(Skanda/Subrahmanya/Kartikeya)
was raised by the six sisters known as
the Krttikā and thus came to be
known as Kārtikeya (literally
'Him of the Krttikā'). According
to the Mahābhārata, Murugan was
born to Agni and Svāhā,
after the latter impersonated six of the
seven wives of the Saptarsi and
made love to him. The Saptarsi,
hearing of this incident and doubting
their wives' chastity, divorced them.
These wives then became the Krttikā....
And the
one who was nursed was the planet Mars:
... Skanda (literally 'the
jumping one' or 'the hopping one') is
the planet Mars, also called
Kartikeya, inasmuch as he was borne
by the Krittika, the Pleiades.
Mbh. 9.44-46 (Roy trans. vol. 7, pp.
130-43). It should be emphasized, aloud
and strongly, that in Babylonian
astronomy Mars is the only planetary
representative of the Pleiades.
See P. F.
Gössmann. Planetarium Babylonicum
(1950), p. 279: 'In der
Planetenvertretung kommt für die
Plejaden nur Mars in Frage.'
The Mahabharata insists on six
as the number of the Pleiades as well as
of the mothers of Skanda and
gives a very broad and wild description
of the birth and the installation of
Kartikeya 'by the assembled gods ...
as their generalissimo', which is
shattering, somehow, driving home how
little one understands as yet.
The least which can be said, assuredly:
Mars was 'installed' during a more or
less close conjunction of all planets;
in Mbh. 9.45 (p. 133) it is stressed
that the powerful gods assembled 'all
poured water upon Skanda, even as
the gods had poured water on the head of
Varuna, the lord of waters, for
investing him with dominion'. And this
'investiture' took place at the
beginning of the Krita Yuga, the
Golden Age
...
This
Golden Age could have been when once
upon a time the cardinal date MARCH 14
(3-14, π) was at the 'door' leading from
one year to the next and when the
Pleiades were rising together with the
northern spring Sun. In rongorongo times
this star position would had moved ahead to
day 73 + 64 = 137 (May 17) ... |
