The word hippocampus is derived from the Ancient Greek ἱππόκαμπος (hippokampos), ἵππος (hippos, “horse”) and κάμπος (kampos, “sea monster”)

The word hippocampus is derived from the Ancient Greek ἱππόκαμπος (hippokampos), ἵππος (hippos, “horse”) and κάμπος (kampos, neptune-on-hippocampus“sea monster”). This is why they are named after each other, and the reason for the fabulous Greek legends of Neptune and his sea horses.

This science was often depicted with Gods riding a sea-horse such as Hippius, a name of Neptune. The Hippocampus was Neptune’s favorite horse. Neptune (Latin: Neptūnus) was the Roman god of water and the sea in Roman mythology and religion, a brother of Jupiter and Pluto.

He is the counterpart of the Greek sea god, and one of the ancient gods of Phoenicia under the name of Poseidon. Neptune or Poseidon, is often riding a hippocampus or has his chariot drawn by two of them, and his babies are called tadfoals.

Bowie’s Stunning 1999 Prophecy

Since the Bowie post is rather huge and I think this detail is rather important I am breaking it out as an addenda here with a simplified graphic. 

(By Christopher Loring Knowles – The Solar Satellite) – Bowie depicted himself as the Dead Jesus on the cover of the 1999 album ‘hours…’ so it’s important to look at some of the other symbolism at work. It’s especially poignant given that he intended his new album Blackstar to be a journal of his illness and passing onto the next realm. The last detail I need to nail down here is the actual time of death, which if it was in the 5’O Clock hour would be absolutely mindblowing.

Archaeological Discovery Yields Surprising Revelations about Europe’s Oldest City

New evidence suggests that an ancient Aegean city not only recovered but also flourished following the collapse of the Bronze Age.

The discovery suggests that not only did this spectacular site in the Greek Bronze Age (between 3500 and 1100 BC) recover from the collapse of the socio-political system around 1200 BC, but also rapidly grew and thrived as a cosmopolitan hub of the Aegean and Mediterranean regions. Antonis Kotsonas, a University of Cincinnati assistant professor of classics, will highlight his field research with the Knossos Urban Landscape Project at the 117th annual meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America and Society for Classical Studies. The meeting takes place Jan. 7-10, 2016 in San Francisco. (more…)

Bowie: The Starman Returns to the Sky

The Legend is now complete. The story has been told, its ending could not have been more perfectly constructed or executed. It’s said that the great ones know when to leave the stage; the Greatest also know how.

(By Christopher Knowles The Secret Sun) – A little less than three years ago, David Bowie released what I called“The Last Rock ‘n’ Roll Album,” and pulled off what some critics labeled the greatest comeback since Elvis in ’68. Hardcore Bowie fans like myself were a bit nonplussed by the critical response to The Next Day,not because we didn’t appreciate the praise but because we wondered where these critics had been hiding while Bowie had been making important music both onstage (The BBC Radio Concert, the A Reality DVD, for starters) and in the studio (see 1.Outside, Earthling, Heathen).
