Sing me a song on the precession of the <br />equinoxes, sing me a song that will lift my <br />heart above the here and now and give me <br />hope for a revival of hope and belief, sing <br />me a song about the sun’s ancient meaning <br />to kindle the fire of passion in my mind: <br /> <br />‘Myths tell about stars and planets, the sky <br />above, true observations by ancient peoples, <br />says De Santillana, myths commemorate <br />complex cosmological facts – the modern <br />idea of linear time as an arrow flying for <br />a duration in a certain direction, differs <br />from ancient concepts of cyclic time <br /> <br />The ancients conceived time repeats itself – <br />like a rotating wheel returning to a starting <br />point in daily cycles, rising sun moving <br />through sky, setting, starting again, <br />the changing of seasons, the <br />planets, moon and stars <br />moving about <br /> <br />The cycle of life repeating itself <br />governed by time cycles, the longer <br />cycles governing shorter ones - therefore <br />the equinoxes determine when seasons <br />will come while the seasons determine <br />what days will be like <br /> <br />Cycles govern all aspects of life, <br />the precession of the equinoxes <br />as the longest cycle of 26,000 years <br />governs all other cycles, the driving <br />force behind all aspects of life <br />determines the fate of men’ <br /> <br />I LOVE these theories inspiring authors like <br />Zecheria Sitchen to interpret the meaning of <br />ancient myths, concluding modern astronomy <br />is recapturing ancient knowledge; what a thrill <br />to delight in ancient times being victorious <br />over the limitations of modern theories! <br /> <br /> <br />Summary of information found at: <br /> <br />Hamlet’s Mill • Believe All Things http: //www.believeallthings.com/4667/hamlets-mill/#ixzz0qGOvODKd<br /><br />Margaret Alice<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/2010-06-09-song/
