Hamlet's Mill

There are tons of books and research available that talk about how powerful story is as a memory device.

And if you wanna read more about it, at least more in towards the, uh, astronomy part of things, I recommend books like The First Astronomers by Duane Hamacher, or a book by Lynne Kelly called The Memory Code, which talk about the importance and the ability to remember things through story and how powerful that is.

Okay, with that, let's go back to the story.

So some experts believe that this story actually embeds knowledge about axial precession, or the precession of the equinoxes, and the ending of cosmic ages or cosmic world order.

And that brings us back to the story, the Fall of Phaeton.

There are experts who believe that this myth, the Fall of Phaeton, is actually a story that's built to transmit that information that all of the stars shift in the sky, that the North Star will change and the position of the stars will shift over time very, very slowly.

So the evidence I'm gonna use for this argument comes from a book titled Hamlet's Mill, which was written by MIT historian Giorgio de Santillana and science historian Hertha von Dechend, which was written in the nineteen sixties.

So one of the pieces of evidence they use is from the Greek philosopher Plato, who wrote in three sixty BC in his writings Timaeus, where he describes an ancient Egyptian priest who explained to Solon that the story of Phaeton is actually a story of the deviation of the heavenly bodies.

it feel? Yeah, definitely.

Well, and also it's like reading the Hamlet's Mill has really opened my eyes to specifically like, yeah, the yugas and how we have these procession of the equinox that happen.

And most mythology is writing about a time when that shifted and that and also like the North Star, right? So like the North Star isn't always Polaris.

It's there's four other or three other stars it can be.

And so it's a, it's, it's fucking fast.

This, you could, we could do hours on the understanding of what the, each, kind of accelerationist from the tech bros to the Bannonites to, you know, the different occult societies because John Dee could be seen as an accelerationist and definitely Jason Louv in his book, The Empire of Angels, definitely, you know, maybe he wouldn't say that's what he wrote it as, but there's definitely showing that John Dee being from the Catholic, all the Protestant Catholicism all the way back to the end of times, the apocalyptic thinkers of biblical times you know it's like how can we accelerate ourselves to then the coming of the messiah jesus christ returning and the building of the third temple right so it's um

well you know what's interesting about that is i was just reading in hamlet's mill sorry to interrupt you I was just reading in Hamlet's Mail, because we're talking about the Golden Age.

We're talking about Saturn, because that's technically Saturn.

Long story short, the millstone has essentially been related to the spin of the heavens, the spin of the cosmos.

In fact, one of the more well-known books that gets into what I refer to as polar symbolism, gets into sort of geocentric symbolism in a way, is called Hamlet's Mill.

And the millstone, it spins not unlike a wheel.

So a wheel symbolism, which I like to go on and on and on about, and the axle of the wheel or the center of the wheel versus the circumference and sort of the metaphysical implications of all of that and how really, really deep that symbolism is, it's all encoded as well in the millstone.
