Here's a new video I've just published entitled "It's ALL Star Myths," in which I explore a few examples of the world's ancient myths, scriptures, and sacred stories and their foundations in an esoteric system of celestial metaphor, in which the stars and heavenly cycles are imbued with significance which has to do with achieving our full potential as individual men and women . . . and with the pattern for arranging a society in which men and women are empowered to achieve that potential.
Today is the important day in our Earth's dance with the Sun at which the Southward progress of the Sun in the heavens finally pauses and turns back around to proceed to the North again -- the point of December Solstice.
This day is the Winter Solstice for the Northern Hemisphere, and the Summer Solstice for the Southern -- and we reach the exact point of the December Solstice world-wide at 1:48pm on 21 December for North America's Pacific time, which is 4:48pm (1648) on 21 December for North America's Eastern time, and at 9:48pm (2148) on 21 December for Greenwich, England (also for "UTC"), which is already 22 December for some parts of the world (it will occur at what will be 8:48am on 22 December for Melbourne, Australia for example).
This turning-point is perhaps the point of the annual cycle which is imbued by the ancient myths of the world with the most spiritual and esoteric significance of all the cycles. Previous posts on this day discussing the December Solstice include "The Three-Day Pause" and others.
Note that it this phenomenon is not necessarily caused by the Earth orbiting around the Sun as commonly taught and assumed today -- it is also possible that the seasons and Solstices are caused by the Sun going around another point (perhaps around a binary companion) and -- in the process of that motion -- going around the Earth, as argued by Simon Shack in his "Tychos Model" of the solar system, building on the arguments of the great Tycho Brahe and discussed in this previous video.
I hope you will enjoy this new video. Please feel free to share with those for whom it would be positive in some way. All sincere wishes for a blessed Solstice.
