Arcturus, we have every reason to believe, possesses thousands of times the mass of our sun. Think of it! Our sun is traveling only 12 ½ miles a second, but Arcturus is traveling 257 miles a second. Think then of the prodigious momentum this motion implies. A further observation of Arcturus by Serviss reveals: 16 It could be turned into a new course by a close approach to a great sun, but it could only be stopped by collision head on with a body of enormous mass. Barring such accidents, it must, as far as we can see, keep on until it has traversed our stellar system, whence it may escape and pass out into space beyond to join perhaps one of those other island universes of which we have spoken. Charles Burckhalter, of the Chabot Observatory, added an interesting note regarding this great sun: 17 This high velocity places Arcturus in that very small class of stars that apparently are a law unto themselves. He is an outsider, a visitor, a stranger within the gates; to speak plainly, Arcturus is a runaway. Newton gives the velocity of a star under control as not more than 25 miles a second, and Arcturus is going 257 miles a second. Therefore, combined attraction of all the stars we know cannot stop him or even turn him in his path. [link to www.bibliotecapleyades.net] Boötes is visualized as a man standing with one foot on a mountain and the other foot stepping off the mountain. This symbolizes his positioning for security and his trust in the inevitable. In one hand, he is holding a staff representing his leadership abilities. In the other hand, he holds the leashes of two hunting dogs. This suggests openness and trust in his guides. When the archetype of Boötes is experienced psychologically, you may feel like a wanderer who is on the edge, unsure and afraid of where you are going. Making this archetype conscious involves surrendering to the experience of being out of control. Allow yourself to be guided to being present in the moment and on the edge. This leads to being guided beyond what you consider to be normal reality into a realm of infinite possibilities. Working consciously with the energy of the star Arcturus requires you to trust yourself in a way that you have not yet experienced. Arcturus prepares the spiritual seeker for an encounter with a reality beyond that person's ability to comprehend. Both the Hindus and ancient Chinese regarded Arcturus as a pearl-star. In Chinese myth, a huge dragon was eternally chasing and trying to capture this star. [link to shadowlight.gydja.com] Astrally, Surt is represented by the constellation of Bootes, and notably also by its brightest star, Arcturus. Appositely, Pliny referred to it as "horridum sidus," while Hippocrates claimed that its rising had a detrimental effect on anyone unfortunate enough to have a disease at the time. This inauspicious character carries over into Lappish mythology, where Arcturus performs a similar role to that of Surt at Ragnarok. It was believed that "when Arcturus shoots down the North Nail with his arrow on the last day, the heaven will fall crushing the earth and setting fire to everything." This prophecy recalls a common motif in astral mythology, in which bows and arrows perform an important role as the tools of kozmic change. But what is truly remarkable about this prophecy and the role of Arcturus is how closely it resembles the Norse account of Ragnarok, and the role of Surt. Astrologically, too, the constellation of Bootes, is said to have the same characteristics as Mars, the planet of Surt. [link to www.hiddenmysteries.com] One particular figure at Nazca, known to the locals as the Owl Man or el Astronauta, stands 29 meters high on the southern end of Pampa de San Jose (see figure 7). Its arms are interesting as one points to the star Arcturus and the other points to the Earth. The ancient artists that placed it there are telling us something about the connection between the Heavens and Earth. In many ways these mysterious works of art reflect an advanced understanding of mathematics, astronomy and symbolism left by a civilisation of artists for future generations to comprehend. [link to www.aquarian-age.net] The ancient Sumerians knew Arcturus as the faithful shepherd of heaven. Early Arabians knew Arcturus as the keeper of the north and as the keeper of heaven. The Arabians thought Arcturus to be one of the supports of heaven and called it the armed or lance-bearing prop. Bootes is also the keeper of the Great Bear, Ursa Major. The ancient Arabians thought of the polar stars as if they were a sheepfold with Bootes as the shepherd. The Chaldeans called Bootes a name that means "The Shepherd of the Life of Heaven." He is the original image of the religious pastor watching over his flock. In those ancient days, Bootes sometimes carried a spear or a lance. The word "Bootes" is thought to be derived from the Greek word that means "ox" or from another word meaning "to drive" (i.e. cattle). The early Greeks saw their young god Dionysus in the stars of Bootes. Dionysus is called the "twice born", because of the circumstances of his birth [link to www.clarkfoundation.org] Arabs referred to Arcturus as "Lance Bearer" and "Keeper of Heaven, Arcturus is part of a great spherical galactic halo, moving in an elliptical orbit. it has increased in brightness and is passing through the galaxy Another interesting fact about Arcturus is that it was the first star (other than the Sun) on record to be observed during daytime. The star Arcturus is always associated with Ursa Major, following along behind the Dipper, the Wagon, the Bear or other animals at a safe distance as if driving, herding, guarding, tending or hunting. Thus the constellation Boötes and its bright star Arcturus are shepherd of Arabian pastures in the sky, cosmic wagon master of ancient China, ploughman of celestial fields, and both guardsman and hunter of the Great Bear of Heaven. They are constant in their vigil over the most prominent stars that circle round the celestial pole. [link to astrobob.areavoices.com] Back in the spring of 1933, Chicago opened its Century of Progress Exposition as part of the World’s Fair. Its aim was to showcase the progress of science and industry. The first world’s fair the city hosted was the World’s Columbian Exposition, 40 years prior in 1893. To link the old fair with the new, Arcturus was chosen to open the 1933 fair by using its light to start up the fair’s lights. How’s that? At that time, astronomers had determined Arcturus’ distance to be 40 light light years. That meant that the light that left Arcturus in 1893 during the Columbian Exposition would arrive in time for the Century of Progress fair forty years later. Four telescopes in several states were equipped with photocells and connections, and on May 27, 1933 at 9:15 p.m. a beam of Arcturian light was focused on one of the photocells. The cell converted the star’s light into a tiny electric current, which triggered a switch turning on the fair’s lights as planned. The scheme also demonstrated the value of the photocell, a new technology at the time. the 3rd shaking |
