Have you ever read Christina Rossetti's poem, "Goblin Market"? If not, please find yourself a copy (in print or on the web) and settle down in a comfortable place, perhaps with a nice cup of your favorite beverage, and give this delicious but disturbing poem a long, leisurely read!
Then, when you've savored it at least once, check out my new video for some of my perspectives on this poem and its possible message for us.
Be sure to share with a friend who might find this subject to be uplifting . . . and Happy Hallowe'en!
Big thank-you to Walter Cruttenden and Donna Nairi for inviting me onto their Cosmic Influence series of interviews, for a discussion of stars, myths, heavenly cycles, the Great Year, and the incredible Pylos Combat Agate, which only came to light in 2017 (found in a 3,500-year-old tomb unearthed in 2015, near Pylos on the western edge of the Peloponnese in Greece) and which features an astonishing battle scene which can be definitively shown to be based on important constellations for its foundation (a fact that the world of academia has yet to acknowledge).
Welcome! to any new visitors learning about my work for the first time as a result of Walter and Donna's interview -- and of course welcome back! to returning friends, who have perhaps seen some of my previous writing and videos about this incredible ancient treasure carved into the hard surface of a gemstone.
Above is the video of our conversation, which you can also find by following this link. This interview was recorded on 27 July 2021.
As many readers will know, Walter Cruttenden is the author of Lost Star of Myth and Time and the founder of the Binary Research Institute, exploring the evidence that our own sun and solar system are part of a binary system (in common with well over 80% of the stars we know of at this time and which we see in the heavens every night). Although the latest incarnation of Cosmic Influence may have a new YouTube channel, the show has been going for many years and has in the past featured interviews with Graham Hancock among other researchers (link to that interview) including Laird Scranton, Gary Evans, and dozens and dozens more.
Walter has also hosted the Conference on Precession and Ancient Knowledge which has been going for well over a decade and at which I have been fortunate to have presented some of my research on the world's ancient Star Myths: here is a link to my presentation at the most-recent such Conference, which took place in October of 2019.
I hope you will enjoy this conversation between Walter, Donna and myself regarding the mysterious Pylos Agate! I prepared some visuals for our discussion, although you have to wait for them to kick in as we get to the part of the discussion that focuses on the agate itself.
If you want to read more of what I have written in the past about this amazing treasure, you can search the blog for the word "Pylos," and also check out the video I made in 2018 entitled "The Pylos Combat Agate among the Infinite Realms," when the discovery of this artifact was still relatively new to the world (video also embedded below).
