Attention Warning!
Although the following is a good piece of research, do not believe for a minute that Planet X
will pass in 2012 like the author is suggesting in his work. PX could pass years sooner than
that date. In fact excellent disinformation can give 99% truth only to pass on one lie
like the date of passage. This would placate the public into believing that they've got more time than they do to prepare.-mh
In spring of 1993, Caroline and Eugene Shoemaker, an astronomer couple, and David Levy,
an English Literature specialist and a famous "comet hunter", had
spotted a previously unknown comet. The discovery was confirmed in
March 1993 as "Comet SL9". Just 16 months later, the whole scientific
world was watching this newly discovered comet's collision with Jupiter
in more than 20 chunks. What if the breath-taking impact had occurred not with Jupiter but the Earth, instead? We could only be aware of such
possibility, about one and a half years before the horrible event that
could wipe the humanity off this planet's surface.
On the last week of March 2004, William Bradfield
spotted the "Comet C/2004 F4" (Bradfield.) Just three weeks after the
official discovery, this new celestial object reached its perihelion on
17th of April. And although it was about 0.75 AU away from earth, Comet Bradfield was very bright and impressive. (Just look at the SOHO picture
below.) What if it had a "much closer" passage to Earth, not to mention
a dramatic impact? We could only be aware of it, just weeks before the
event. (Curiously, the orbital period of Comet Bradfield was calculated
as 3666 years by NASA - very near to the 3661 years which I suggested
for Marduk's orbital period. Can anyone still insist that no object
with such a long orbital path could come THAT near to the Sun?)
This is neither "yet another doomsayer mumbo jumbo" nor anything
like some people would sarcastically like to call "fear mongering
pseudo-science" in any way. I do not subscribe to any kind of mystical
and baseless doomsday scenarios. What I am trying to say is, comets,
asteroids (or any celestial object) can appear in front of us anytime
with a little or no warning at all. Just remember a very fresh
scientific research paper, which attracted the news media in last December:
"Professor Chandra Wickramasinghe, Honorary Professor Bill Napier and research student Janaki Wickramasinghe
of Cardiff University’s Centre for Astrobiology believe that some
comets are not visible using current astronomical scanning equipment.
They argue that if this is the case, international programmes designed
to detect near-Earth asteroids, and ways to reduce the worst effects of
them colliding with Earth may need to be urgently reviewed." (1)
We know Mr. Napier very well especially for his stunning work with another scientist Victor Clube, published by Universe Pub in 1982, named "The Cosmic Serpent".
Napier and Clube tried to direct our attention to the outer space and
suggested a new approach to a serious risk which was being
underestimated by the scientific world:
"According to astronomers such as Dr. Victor Clube, of Oxford
University's Department of Astrophysics, the coming and goings of the
Taurid stream should be a source of concern to politicians, planners
and anyone who cherishes life on Earth. A 'catastrophist', Dr. Clube is
one of many astronomers who are convinced that within this celestial
procession lie the seeds of mass destruction an Armageddon of biblical
proportions. 'The matter requires urgent attention. It is crucial that
everyone is woken up to the danger,' Dr. Clube says."
What exactly does it mean for us? First, the very popular skeptical motto which says "If Planet X existed even the amateur
astronomers should have spotted it by now" becomes definitely
irrelevant. They even cannot spot a large and bright comet before it
approaches its perihelion, like we saw in Comet Bradfield example.
Besides, there may be (and there definitely are) several kinds of
celestial entities which could not have been spotted yet, with a bunch
of understandable reasons for their "invisible" states. As Dr Napier
and Dr Wickramasinghe reminds us, we are not familiar with all kinds of
celestial objects in heavens and contrary to popular belief, the
discovery of our solar system is not thoroughly completed. These
scientists have just put a new enigma on the table: The Dark Comets which are very hard to spot; emitting or reflecting no light and almost invisible.
"The Dark Comets" are not the only kind of celestial objects which are
very hard to spot: The dead stars, who have not enough nuclear fuel to
generate heat and start a consistent nuclear fusion of hydrogen to be
bright as a star, called "the brown dwarfs"
are also not easy to spot. The existence of brown dwarfs was only a
theoretical conception until some instances began to be spotted in
mid-nineties. The first clear evidence of a brown dwarf was detected in
November 1995 when astronomers spotted the object
called "Gliese 229B", a small companion to cool red star Gliese 229.
Since then, several of them have been found in deep space but mostly,
just by "chance". Because, the brown dwarfs do not emit light and
appear as hundreds of thousands times dimmer than our Sun and these
celestial objects are the faintest ones, orbiting another star. They
are about 15 to 50 times the mass of Jupiter but in size they can be
way "smaller" than it. Brown dwarfs are among the "mysterious entities"
of cosmos with still dozens of puzzles unsolved and some dimmer
instances of them can only be detected by high-tech infrared scanners
in orbit.
Now, I want to recall a short passage from my book "2012: Rendez-vous With Marduk", which was a brief appendix at the end of the main text, titled "Nibiru and the Jaguar Cult".
(Just an informative note to the readers who has not read the
book yet: While analyzing the Meso-American history and creeds, I
mentioned of a "dualistic" system which included two seperate cults in
the region: The "Feathered Serpent" cult and the "Jaguar Cult". The essential deities were Kukulcan (Quetzalcoatl in Aztec/Toltec lore) and Hunrakan
(Tezcatlipoca in Aztec/Toltec lore) respectively but while the
celestial counterpart of the first one was obviously the planet Venus,
the latter's symbol in heavens was surprisingly vague. All evidence
suggested that this dualistic structure had been eventually developed
by the close encounters of the two seperate cults and each deity (and
their celestial counterparts) were equally important for ancient
Meso-Americans. In some mythical fragments and traditions, scholars
found the significance of the number 7 and met the concept of "Seven
Macaw" (Seven Sages) so they supported the idea that
Hunrakan/Tezcatlipoca's celestial symbol was either The Pleiades or the
Great Dipper - both had seven bright stars.
In contrary, I suggested in my book that the sacred number 7
of Hunrakan had little to do with the number of stars in a certain
constellation but it was rather used to reflect something, in a more
"astronomical and mathematical" manner. If Hunrakan appeared to be the
"rival" of Kukulcan, and if the myths were talking about a
"confrontation" between two deities, the "celestial Hunrakan" should
have definitely been a "planet-like" object orbiting the Sun, in same
category with Venus - not a constellation or a bright star cluster. So
I suggested that it was nothing but Nibiru/Marduk,
the celestial object that almost all ancient cultures mentioned of,
that symbolized Hunrakan in heavens. They had met with Kukulcan in
heavens when Hunrakan had come in from the deep and far land of
darkness; a celestial battle happened between two deities (a
confrontation of planets on their orbital paths), at first Kukulcan
lost the battle and was sent to exile (in a new and different orbit)
and later, Hunrakan disappeared in deep space again while Kukulcan was
shining in the morning sky, described by ancients as "Birth Of Venus", the event which was considered as the beginning of the "Fifth Sun"
of Mayan Calendar. The significance of number 7 was related to the
orbital period of Hunrakan (Nibiru/Marduk) for which I suggested 3661
earthly years. Now: 3661 is exactly the one seventh of 25,627
years, the total time span of 5 Mayan "world ages". In other words,
seven orbital periods of Hunrakan (Marduk) equals to five Mayan ages.
Besides, 3661 is a very special number: It can only be divided by number seven!
Now, after this brief information, we can get back to the beginning:
Why Hunrakan (Marduk) was named "Jaguar" in ancient Meso-America?)
Let's see the "Appendix 2" of my book now:
Nibiru and the Jaguar Cult
We have dealt with the Meso-American creation and universal
order myths in details throughout the book. One point had a very
special function on our thesis: The confrontation and encounters
between the Venus Cult which had declared itself with the epithet
"Feathered Serpent" and the Nibiru/Marduk lore which was named and
known as "The Jaguar Cult". On the coalition of these Meso-American
cults whose ultimate product had eventually been the Mayan Calendar, I
stated that the enigmatic deity Tezcatlipoca/Hunrakan had been the
rival of the Quetzalcoatl/Kukulcan figure to complete the dualistic
system, and his celestial counterpart was Nibiru.
Perhaps, at this point, it would be useful to return to
Mesopotamia and land of Sumer to add some colors to the whole picture.
And maybe the name given to the Tenth Planet by Mesopotamians, who even
mentioned its existence in their literary texts, could be an
interesting base for the connection we established with Jaguar.
Though it was called Marduk in Babylon, we know that in almost
all sacred texts and creation myths, the "title" of the Tenth Planet
was NI.BI.RU. This title, which can be translated as "The One Who Crosses The Middle" or "The One Who Seized The Middle",
was interpreted by Zecharia Sichin and a number of other scholars as
"The Planet Of Crossing". Now, the question is: Could we find another
instance of a "parallel usage of meanings" in NI.BI.RU's name, a method
which was often practised in Ancient Neareastern cultures?
The word basically consisted of two parts in Ancient Sumerian
language: NIB and RU. The first syllable NIB was also a combination of
two other small syllables: NI + IB. "NI" meant "fear and respect" while
"IB" meant "to get angry". In John Halloran's Sumerian Lexicon, these
two syllables come together as "NI + IB = NIB" to define a specific
animal: Leopard!
The second syllable, "RU" has a meaning like "tossing with
forehead". In this case, there appears another interpretation for the
name NI.BI.RU, along with "Planet Of Crossing" or "Crossing In The
Middle": It's "Leopard Who Tosses With Its Forehead".
As we already had seen, it was "Jaguar" in Meso-America; and
it was "Leopard" in a land thousands of miles away. Back in St. John's
Revelation, "The Beast Number 666" was described as "having a body of a
leopard". Could this intriguing similarity which I believe should
seriously be taken into account, point out something about the
appearance of the Tenth Planet, when it was approaching to the Earth?
The "brown dwarf" as Jaguar
Now again, we are going back to the brown dwarves and their
interesting aspects. Brown dwarves are among the dimmest objects in
space, usually in a pale reddish color with a lot of "dark spots" on
their surfaces. As a Caltech expert stated: "The M and L dwarfs are
red, while the T dwarf is dimly magenta, due to lack of light --
actually absorptions by sodium and potassium atoms -- in the green
portion of the spectrum". If you look at the picture below which shows
the sun, various brown dwarves and the planet Jupiter, rendered by Dr.
Robert Hurt of the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center in Caltech,
you should easily realize why the ancients called Nibiru/Marduk as
Jaguar in Meso-America and Leopard in Mesopotamia. It really looks like
the skin of a leopard or a jaguar!
According to my opinion, the entity called "Planet X" by various
researchers is very likely to be a planet-sized brown dwarf or a
similar, "brown dwarf like" object, with probably some Mars-sized
satellites orbiting it. Latest findings suggest that small brown
dwarves can be the central construction points of some sophisticated
"mini solar systems". Look at this very fresh news report from the New Scientist:
"The construction site of a miniature solar system has been spotted
but, unusually, its central star is a tiny brown dwarf. The star is so
small it could be mistaken for a giant planet and it is surrounded by a
disc of material chunky enough to form several planets the size of
Earth or Mars.
The discovery calls for a rethink of how diverse planetary
systems can be, says Kevin Luhman of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for
Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts, US. 'We always just think of
planets forming around stars about the mass of our Sun,' he says. 'But
they could form in more exotic situations around very small brown
dwarfs - there might be mini solar systems out there.' "
How would such a "miniature solar system" appear in sky, with
a "jaguar skinned" faint body in the middle and some bright, planetary
bodies at his left and right, orbiting the main thing. If we witnessed
such a view in the sky, would we mention of it as "looking like a
winged disc crossing the heavens"?
A very common misconception among Planet X researchers is thinking
of our solar system as a 2-D plane, such as the Ecliptic. So, most of
them approach the question as simple as a planetary body which would
approach the inner solar system following the path from Kuiper Belt to
a point between Jupiter and Mars. So, much of Planet X enthusiasts has
been drawing their attentions toward Pluto and waiting a "red planet"
to appear. They think "If we have not spotted it yet, then this means
it's still somewhere beyond Pluto, therefore it cannot be the
triggering factor of recent catastrophic events while it floats such
far away."
According to my opinion, this is totally wrong. There is no
logic in thinking of our solar system such a 2D plane like the
Ecliptic. This thing will not come from the direction of Pluto: It's
approaching us from the very "south" of our solar system - from the
deep space "beneath" the Sun, like ancients had called it "The
Bottomless
Pit" or "Underworld". It's accelerating continuously while approaching
up towards the Sun and it should have had an orbital plane which
probably makes an angle around 75-85 degrees with the Ecliptic plain.
This is why ancients described it as "rising from the depth, directly
up in the heavens".
The sky charts of the ancients were depicted as looking
southern skies. The left of the chart was the East and the right side was the West. The structure of these charts were very simple: A
horizontal line was drawn in the middle to represent the horizon and a
vertical line was placed to cross it, representing the "Middle Of The
Heavens". Using the cross point of these long lines (which formed a
very large "+" sign) as center, they used to draw a circle, and each
quarter of this circle was divided into three equal parts of 30 degrees
to form the "celestial houses" on which they depicted the positions of
the planets. You should be familiar with these charts because they are
the ones that are being used by astrologists' horoscope drawings. In
fact, astrology had had little to do with "fortune telling" or
"prophecy" in ancient times: It was their scientific discipline which
helped them to calculate the exact positions of celestial bodies, the
eclipses and other significant events - it was definitely their
"astronomy".
Why looking southern skies, when one of the most significant
points on heavens, The "Fixed" Polar Star was in Northern skies? Why
dividing the sky with a vertical line and naming it the "Middle of the
Heavens" and paying so much attention to this? The answer maybe found
on ancient astronomical texts, describing a significant event:
"Marduk is Umunpauddu at its appearance; when it has risen for two (or four?) hours it becomes Sagmigar; when it stands in the meridian it becomes Nibiru". (R. Campbell Thompson, "The Reports of the Magicians and Astrologers of Nineveh and Babylon,")
This piece of text is from a relatively late period, and
mentions of Assyrian priests' prophecies. It describes a celestial path
for Marduk in heavens with various stations, some of them named as
"Umunpauddu" or "Sagmigar". Curiously, our modern scholars interpret
both of these names as "Jupiter". The obvious reason for this is they
believe Marduk was a divine name for the planet Jupiter. So according
to these scholars, the text above describes the celestial movement of
Jupiter; and according to them, Marduk, Umunpauddu and Sagmigar were
all Jupiter's names. Besides, these scholars would like us to accept
that Nibiru was also Jupiter's epithet. Now, let's read again this text
but this time replacing all these names with Jupiter only to realize
how nonsense it is:
"Jupiter is Jupiter at its appearance; when it has risen for
two hours it becomes Jupiter; when it stands in the meridian it becomes
Jupiter".
Let's get real: Marduk is definitely not Jupiter; and it is
ridiculous to insist that both Umunpauddu and Sagmigar was also
Jupiter. If this nonsense assumption were right, what could that text
try to tell us? Because mainstream scientists are keen to believe that
Marduk was Jupiter, they tend to interpret "Umunpauddu" and "Sagmigar"
as the "phases" of Jupiter according to ancient Assyrians. First, let's
correct the main essential misconception: Jupiter was the God Enlil's
(The Lord Of Winds) celestial symbol and on many "Gods List" tablets
Enlil's sacred number was 50, which had put him on the first rank (just
after the almighty sky god An). God Enki's (Lord Of Earth) sacred number was 40 and he was just below his brother Enlil. Moon God Nannar was "The God 30", Sun God Utu (or Uddu) was "20" and finally Marduk, Enki's first-born son was "10". However, at the end of the Mesopotamian Creation Myth "Enuma Elish", a final passage announces Marduk as the chief deity, seizing Enlil's power, by listing "50 sacred names of Marduk".
These names were presented as two seperate groups: The first group of
10 names, were Marduk's own titles (because he was "The God Of 10) and
the second group of 40 names were associating his father Enki's titles,
rank and sacred number to Marduk. So, the equation Marduk (10) + Enki
(40) = Enlil (50) declares Marduk as the patron deity, taking the
throne of Enlil along with his title and of course, the planet he was
associated with (Jupiter). After this rearrangement, Jupiter
substituted Marduk's real heavenly symbol, because his "own planet" was
out of sight for so long. In other words, Jupiter was only a
substitution for Marduk's planet, underlining the fact that Enlil's
(the deity of Jupiter) throne was now his.
As for the names "Umunpaddu" and "Sagmigar": In Sumerian
language, "Umun" is a title of respect, synonymous with "En" (The
Lord). But it also means "swamp". The word "pa.uddu" is "Utu's
Brother". So "Umun.pa.uddu" means "The Swamp of Utu's Brother" which
has nothing to do with "phases" of a planet but is a direct indicator
of a position. "The Swamp" was a very archaic word in Sumerian, often
used to name the "oldest city on the earth" which was Eridu, God Enki's
sacred city very near to Persian Gulf. Ancient legends tell us that
"there was no city but swamp everywhere, and the Eridu was built there
by Enki."
"Sag" is "good fortune" and "divine favour" in ancient
Sumerian. And "Mi" is "ideal norm, divine decree, the phenomenal area
of a deity's power". Finally, "gar" means "appearance". As it is very
obvious, like "Umunpaddu", "Sagmiggar" is a title to indicate a
"station" too: "The Appearance In The Area of Divine Favour".
What should we understand from all these? If you accept the
"Umunpaddu", "Sagmigar" and "Nibiru" as celestial stations, this
statement tells us how Marduk appears and rises in southern skies:
First, the ancients tell us that it appears on southern horizon, the
"Umunpauddu" station, just above the "swamp". (For a stargazer who
looked south in ancient city Eridu, the first and lowest alignment
point was the swamps of Perisan Gulf.) Then, they continue, it begins
to rise up and after passing "two houses" (not "two hours" as our
scholars suggested - "houses" are the 30 degree slices of the sky; so
it rises about 60 degrees up) it arrives the "Sagmigar" station which
is the "phenomenal area of deity's power". Finally, it continues to
rise up to arrive the peak point, The Meridian position in the middle
of the heavens which is nothing but the "Nibiru" station".
Writer and researcher Andrew Collins, presents us a
brilliant analyze for the alignments of the temples in some ancient
cities like Eridu and Nevali Cori, in his remarkable work "Gods Of Eden". He draws our attention to constellation "Eridanus"
of the southern skies which he associates with the ancient city "Eridu"
and suggests a very plausible relationship between Eridanus (a
mythological sea monster) and "Tiamat" of Mesopotamian creation epic "Enuma Elish". In this ancient myth, Marduk who comes from far, attacks the dragon Tiamat and "forces his way through the midst of it":
...the star, which shineth in the heavens.
May he hold the Beginning and the Future, may they pay homage unto him,
Saying, "He who forced his way through the midst of Tiamat without resting,
Let his name be Nibiru, 'the Seizer of the Midst'!
For the stars of heaven he upheld the paths,
He shepherded all the gods like sheep!
He conquered Tiamat, he troubled and ended her life"
("Enuma Elish" - "Seven Tablets Of Creation", translated by Leonard W. King)
Most scholars, including Zecharia Sitchin, thought
about this creation epic as an ancient form of "Big Bang theory" on how
the planets and their orbits were created. I suggest in contrary, the
passages dealing with Marduk and Tiamat in "Enuma Elish" just describe
us a "celestial movement" and its "stations", just like the previous
ancient text. "Tiamat" is the constellation Eridanus of southern skies
and Marduk follows a path that passes through it, rising up to the
middle of the heavens, just to become "Nibiru: The Seizer of the
Midst".
Marduk, Nibiru or an unusual, sophisticated "celestial system"
is probably getting closer to our Sun, in the direction of southern
celestial pole, well below the Ecliptic plane. No need to look for a
"red planet" in distant places beyond Pluto. It already began effecting
our Sun since the early 2000's: The supposedly 11-years sunspot cycles
are disturbed, some previously unknown source is bombarding the
southern hemisphere with mysterious energy surges, the earth's magnetic
power is in decline and the climate patterns are being radically
changed. I believe, Marduk as ancients call it or "the unknown
celestial system" will appear soon (probably just before the year 2010)
in southern skies. This is why super powers of the global
finance-capital oligarchy feel very uncomfortable and have been running
a very aggressive strategy to keep the power in their hands since late
2001. Their time is running up and all their ambition is to control the
world with all the energy sources before the chaotic days arrive.
