Atlantis and Lemuria could Rise in a Pole Shift

Stephen L. Harrison responds to a description of William Hutton‘s Coming Earth Changes by saying:

Mr. Hutton believes that the poles cannot shift more than about 10 degrees, but that the mechanism of pole shift will be able to go units of the crust of the Earth up and down, to the point of causing parts of Atlantis to rise off the East coast and parts of Lemuria, a further “lost continent,” to rise in the Pacific. He refers to evidence from modern geology studies that indicate that both continents once existed.

Coming Earth Changes: Causes and Consequences of the Approaching Pole Shift

That would be pretty exciting – if parts of Atlantis and Lemuria rose again. According to one of Edgar Cayce‘s readings about the location of Atlantis, he said that the East coast of the U.S. once had been the coast of Atlantis. Wouldn’t that be amazing if land appeared off the Atlantic coast!

Yucatan to Host Mexican Space Agency

Yucatan travel will not be the same. Next time you visit the Yucatan, you may add to your many sights and adventures, a visit to the Mexican Space Agency or Agencia Espacial Mexicana – AEXA. An April 22, 2010 online article in Rianovosti said:

Mexico will create its own space center on the Yucatan Peninsula, deputy economy minister Francisco Pimentel said.

Mexico to Create Its First Space Center on Yucatan Peninsula

AEXA will be located 9 to 12 miles away from Chetumal, the capital of the Mexican state of Quintana Roo. Cancun, which is also in Quintana Roo is north of Chetumal on the Riviera Maya facing the Caribbean Sea. Chetumal is also just north of the Mexican border with the country of Belize.

Although we did not visit Chetumal while filming the Yucatan Travel Movie, we have read that that most tourists do not stop there, but they would benefit from visiting Chetumal’s Museo de la Cultura Maya. Perhaps when we are next in Yucatan, we will go there.

UK Tourists Encouraged to Try Yucatan

Here’s an excerpt from an article in the Liverpool Daily Post, which is a newspaper in England.

Direct flights from the UK usually take about 9 hours to the Caribbean side of the country where you can visit resorts such as the Riviera Maya, stunning island of Cozumel and Cancun.

Viva la Mexico! Holidays in Mexico

The article also says, “Holidays to Mexico have become increasingly popular over the last few years as tourists become more adventurous with their destinations.”

I’ll say they are. Not only are tourists from the UK coming to Yucatan, but also tourists are coming there from all of Europe. While filming the Yucatan Travel Movie, we met numerous European travelers. It’s not only that they are becoming more adventurous, it is that the Euro and British Pound compare very favorably with the Mexican Peso.

Itzamna, the Bearded One

Isn’t it strange that the Maya’s creator god, Itzamna, is also called, “The Bearded One,” especially when you consider that Maya men do not have facial hair? How could the ancient Maya have ever envisioned a man with a beard? I guess it’s another one of those mysteries associated with the ancient Maya. In the Yucatan Travel Movie, I have included images of Itzamna found in ruins both with a beard and without.

Itzamna on War, Violence, and Human Sacrifice

In the Yucatan Travel Movie, a continual thread of Maya mythology runs throughout with information about, carvings in Mayan ruins, and images of Itzamna, the ancient Maya creator god. Although Itzaman is thought of as being a god of the ancient Maya, I also discovered that there continues to be a reverence for him among modern Maya. I heard one woman say that her grandparents used to honor Itzamna.

As founder of Mayan culture, Itzamna refused to have anything to do with wars, violence, or human sacrifices.

Story and Origin of Itzamna

Are Ancient Ruins in India Atlantean Outposts?

Following, please find an excerpt from a very long, but fascinating article that basically says that there is evidence of an amazing ancient civilization in India, for the most part ignored in favor of ancient Egypt, that predates “The Flood” so most of the evidence of its civilization was destroyed by the cataclysm and that this Vedic civilization could represent a remnant from Atlantis.

Have you read this before? The extent of the earth upheavals around 10,000 B.C.?

Geologists, both mainstream and alternative, agree that the evidence is overwhelming that there was a massive global catastrophe in around 10,000 BC that ended the last Ice Age and altered the face of the planet in almost every way. For the people alive at that time it must have been an experience we can’t imagine. The sea levels rising 300 feet in a week, submerging all beaches and coastal lands, torrential rainstorms measuring in feet instead of inches, worldwide hurricanes, supervolcanic eruptions turning the sky black and blotting out the sun for months. A waterfall as wide as the Bosphorous Strait filling up the Black Sea like a bathtub. The human survivors of this cataclysm would never ever have forgotten it and would most certainly have told their children and grandchildren about it; and those subsequent generations would have passed on the story to their own descendants. This memory endured to the present day to become these folk-legends of the Great Flood etc.

IS VEDIC CIVILIZATION THE REMNANTS OF THE LEGENDARY ATLANTIS

What do you think? Could ancient civilizations in India be remnants of the civilization of Atlantis?

Intriguing Theories on Earth’s Axial Tilt and Atlantis

Here is an abstract previewing a very interesting article theorizing a huge impact off the coast of Antarctic as the cause of the sinking of Atlantis and the tilt of the earth’s axis.

It does remind me of another theory I read about, I think in one of Graham Hancock’s books, that Antarctica is actually Atlantis and that when the earth’s crust moved during a physical pole shift (not magnetic as has happened so many times in the past) that Atlantis ended up at the South Pole and froze over. He gives this explanation for the Piri Reis map showing contours of Antarctica which is presently under a mile-deep ice sheet.

Abstract: Using Google Earth and browsing the geographic appearance of the Earth’s crust starting from the South Pacific Ocean right above Antarctica and traveling over to Drake’s Passage and into the South Atlantic Ocean there seems to be a visual trace that some sort of cosmic collision occurred in that area. (See Figure 1) The impact of the object surfed across the ocean and collided with the bottom of South America where it once connected to Antarctica creating Drake’s Passage opening. This impact also may have had the kinetic energy to break the Earth’s crustal plate and create the fault lines (See Figure 3) in addition to changing Earth’s axial tilt (See Figure 2).[Report and Opinion. 2010;2(2):1-2]. (ISSN: 1553-9873).

The New Moon is Good for Planting

On April 14th, I had said that the day started a new moon cycle. The new moon is a great time for planting seeds and transplanting plants.

My Ukrainian grandmother always used to transplant her African Violets on the new moon. She won many prizes for her flowering houseplants, including “Queen of the Show” year after year. I always assumed that her dedication to transplant only in the new moon had a lot to do with her marvelous green thumb.

King Tut Led a Life of Pain and Suffering

In an article posted on the Middle Peninsula Fine Arts Association’s blog, I learned that DNA testing in a lab in Cairo paid for by the Discovery Channel has turned up evidence that King Tut had a clubbed foot and probably died from malaria. He also had a condition that restricted blood flow causing his bones to collapse and explaining the 130 wooden sticks and staffs found in his tomb. They were used by the youthful King Tut . . . he died at the age of 19 . . . for support and locomotion.

DNA testing of other mummies showed that one of his mating partners was his sister and that the remains of two stillborn babies in his tomb were his children. The article concludes by saying:

Knowing the secrets of King Tut’s life, lineage and death lends a new perspective to royal life in Ancient Egypt, if you ask Pusch. “At first, he was a specimen in a museum, but now he’s become a person I know intimately,” he said. “His was a painful life and one of suffering. “Not very royal, is it?”

DNA Sheds Light on King Tut’s Life

New Moon Starts Today

Today is the New Moon. In fact, according to my Jim Maynard’s Pocket Astrologer 2010, the new moon started today at 8:29 a.m. EST so we are well into it.

The new moon is a good time to start things. The idea is that you start projects now and finish them before the next new moon. I find this very helpful. It gives me a good framework for working with projects.

If I can’t finish something by the next new moon, I know that it will continue until the following new moon or further. That’s why I try to finish at least some aspect of something I started in the previous new moon before the next new moon.

So, today is a day full of “starting things” energy. Go for it!
