Presentation transcript:

Polar Shift When the sun was moved to the other side of the earth, the stars of the Polar region that normally pointed down must point up.

The Gilgamesh Epic tablet VI Enkidu leapt out of it and seized the Bull by the horns The Bull of Heaven retreated before him And brushed him with the hairy tip of its tail.. When Enkidu heard the curse of Inanna, He tore loose the right thigh of the Bull of Heaven, Flung it skywards up into her face

Bull of Heaven Retreated The Bull of Heaven retreated means the Bull of Heaven reversed. The Bull of Heaven pointed to the 12 signs of the zodiac. The sun had moved to the other side of the earth and earth had flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. Thus the Bull of Heaven pointed to the seasons in retreat.

Big Dipper Shift The man is pointing up to the pole star. The pole star was Thuban in 1300 BC just above in the handle of the Big Dipper. However, the other man is measuring a shift. The shift may simply be the Bull of heaven shifting direction 180 degrees the night following a sun miracle.

The Sun Moved The Sun had moved to the other side of the earth. Thus the noon day sky became the midnight sky. Thus the Bull of Heaven, the Big Dipper, instead of pointing down at midnight, now pointed up at midnight. Thus is measured the severed leg of the Bull and the retreat in position of the Bull.

Earth shift, or Sun drop

Flat plane of the solar system

Sun drop, plane tilt

Sun move, drop on otherside. To keep earth in the same season.

Orbit Shift The sun must move up or down after moving the 180 degrees in Summer or Winter to keep earth in the same season. Then the planets must shift their orbit around the sun. Thus it may appear the sun and moon shifted in respect to the pole star.

Shift in Zodiac When the sun moved up or down after moving 180 degrees, it only moved to its normal position in the zodiac. Thus the path of the zodiac is the same. Only the season associated with that sign of the zodiac is six months different and progressing in reverse.

Shift in sunrise position The sun standing still at sunrise in the northeast in summer may appear to move to the southeast to the winter sunrise position. This is because the sun may travel in a straight line to the other side of the earth. Then the sun must move up or down to keep earth in the same season. Thus the sun and moon may temporarily move near the pole star region.

No earth shift Earth did not shift. The pole star did not move. Earth’s axis continued to point in exactly the same direction. Only the sun and moon moved.

Dendera Zodiac East is West in the Dendera Zodiac. When the sun moved to the other side of the earth, earth flowed into a reverse orbit of the sun. Thus the sun would move to the other side of the zodiac.

Spring in the East Then looking south at the stars of the zodiac, the constellation of Spring, Pisces, which normally appears to the west would appear to the east. Moreover, the zodiac would progress to Scorpius in Summer. Thus the zodiac would progress like the day from sunrise in the east to noon in Scorpius and to sunset in the west in Fall.

The Phoenix not Pisces on Sun

Lucius Annaeus Seneca, Thyestes. translated by Moses Hadas Ah, patient Phoebus, though you fled backward and submerged shattered daylight in mid heaven, your setting was too late...Though Titan himself should reverse his chariot and steer it on a backward course, though thick night be ordered out at day's proper rising to swathe the loathsome act in unexampled darkness, it must nevertheless be visible:

Upside down and the Wain (Great Bear), which was never washed by the sea, the swathing whirlpool shall engulf. A sun miracle in Summer and the Big Dipper had been pointing up at midnight. Now the Big Dipper pointed down and some of the Wain, the Great Bear, dropped below the horizon.

Five Planets Reverse "On the last day of the twelfth month (11 February 141 BC) it thundered. The sun appeared purple. Five planets moved in retrograde and guarded the constellation T'ai- wei. The moon passed through the center of the constellation T'ien-t'ing." The Grand Scribes Records, Volume II, p.213.

Sun miracle in Winter This sun miracle of the Chinese was in Winter. The Big Dipper normally points down at midnight in Summer and up at midnight in Winter. This Chinese record is in Winter. The unusual thing to the observer is the moon now appeared 180 degrees away near Arcturus in the handle of the Big Dipper.

When the sun and moon moved 180 degrees to the other side of the earth in winter, the moon may now appear near Arcturus that night in the handle of the Big dipper pointing straight up at midnight. And earth flow out of the reverse orbit of the sun. The constellation T'ien-t'ing is the polar region. Thus the Big Dipper pointed up at midnight instead of down.
