A man ahead of his time, much like myself.
the following is a section from Graham Hancock's Finger Prints of The Gods which I have expanded upon to illustrate my take on this extraordinary point in time and space that we are all currently experiencing.
The late Charles Hapgood taught the history of science at Keene College,
New Hampshire, USA. He wasn’t a geologist, or an ancient historian. It is
possible, however, that future generations will remember him as the man
whose work undermined the foundations of world history—and a large
chunk of world geology as well.
Albert Einstein was among the first to realize this when he took the
unprecedented step of contributing the foreword to a book Hapgood
wrote in 1953, some years before he began his investigation of the Piri
Reis Map:
I frequently receive communications from people who wish to consult me
concerning their unpublished ideas [Einstein observed]. It goes without saying that
these ideas are very seldom possessed of scientific validity. The very first
communication, however, that I received from Mr. Hapgood electrified me. His
idea is original, of great simplicity, and—if it continues to prove itself—of great
importance to everything that is related to the history of the earth’s surface.14
The ‘idea’ expressed in Hapgood’s 1953 book is a global geological
theory which elegantly explains how and why large parts of Antarctica
could have remained ice-free until 4000 BC, together with many other
anomalies of earth science. In brief the argument is:
1 Antarctica was not always covered with ice and was at one time much
warmer than it is today.
2 It was warm because it was not physically located at the South Pole in
that period. Instead it was approximately 2000 miles farther north.
This ‘would have put it outside the Antarctic Circle in a temperate or
cold temperate climate.
3 The continent moved to its present position inside the Antarctic Circle
as a result of a mechanism known as ‘earth-crust displacement’. This
mechanism, in no sense to be confused with plate-tectonics or
‘continental drift’, is one whereby the lithosphere, the whole outer
crust of the earth, ‘may be displaced at times, moving over the soft
inner body, much as the skin of an orange, if it were loose, might shift
over the inner part of the orange all in one piece.
4 During the envisaged southwards movement of Antarctica brought
about by earth-crust displacement, the continent would gradually have
grown colder, an ice-cap forming and remorselessly expanding over
several thousands of years until it attained its present dimensions.’17
Further details of the evidence supporting these radical proposals are
set out in Part VIII of this book. Orthodox geologists, however, remain
reluctant to accept Hapgood’s theory (although none has succeeded in
proving it incorrect). It raises many questions.
Of these by far the most important is: what conceivable mechanism
would be able to exert sufficient thrust on the lithosphere to precipitate a
phenomenon of such magnitude as a crustal displacement?
We have no better guide than Einstein to summarize Hapgood’s
findings:
In a polar region there is continual deposition of ice, which is not symmetrically
distributed about the pole. The earth’s rotation acts on these unsymmetrically
deposited masses, and produces centrifugal momentum that is transmitted to the
rigid crust of the earth. The constantly increasing centrifugal momentum
produced in this way will, when it has reached a certain point, produce a
movement of the earth’s crust over the rest of the earth’s body.
The Piri Reis Map seems to contain surprising collateral evidence in
support of the thesis of a geologically recent glaciation of parts of
Antarctica following a sudden southward displacement of the earth’s
crust. Moreover since such a map could only have been drawn prior to
4000 BC, its implications for the history of human civilization are
staggering. Prior to 4000 BC there are supposed to have been no
civilizations at all.
At some risk of over-simplification, the academic consensus is broadly:
-Civilization first developed in the Fertile Crescent of the Middle East.
-This development began after 4000 BC, and culminated in the
emergence of the earliest true civilizations (Sumer and Egypt) around
3000 BC, soon followed by the Indus Valley and China.
-About 1500 years later, civilization took off spontaneously and
independently in the Americas.
-Since 3000 BC in the Old World (and about 1500 BC in the New)
civilization has steadily ‘evolved’ in the direction of ever more refined,
complex and productive forms.
-In consequence, and particularly by comparison with ourselves, all
ancient civilizations (and all their works) are to be understood as
essentially primitive
(the Sumerian astronomers regarded the heavens with unscientific awe, and even the pyramids of Egypt were built by technological primitives’).
The evidence of the Piri Reis Map appears to contradict all this.
Piri Reis and his sources
In his day, Piri Reis was a well-known figure; his historical identity is
firmly established. An admiral in the navy of the Ottoman Turks, he was
involved, often on the winning side, in numerous sea battles around the
mid-sixteenth century. He was, in addition, considered an expert on the
lands of the Mediterranean, and was the author of a famous sailing book,
the Kitabi Bahriye, which provided a comprehensive description of the
coasts, harbours, currents, shallows, landing places, bays and straits of
the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas. Despite this illustrious career he fell
foul of his masters and was beheaded in AD 1554 or 1555.19
The source maps Piri Reis used to draw up his 1513 map were in all
probability lodged originally in the Imperial Library at Constantinople, to
which the admiral is known to have enjoyed privileged access. Those
sources (which may have been transferred or copied from even more
ancient centres of learning) no longer exist, or, at any rate, have not been
found. It was, however, in the library of the old Imperial Palace at
Constantinople that the Piri Reis Map was rediscovered, painted on a
gazelle skin and rolled up on a dusty shelf, as recently as 1929.
Graham Hancock – FINGERPRINTS OF THE GODS
My thoughts on the matter:
In a section of my book "The Killer Inside" I attempt to take the Hapgood findings one step further and argue that the once temperate region now covered by a sheet of ice over a mile thick was always in its physical location but that the location of the poles themselves shifted.
Additionally I would like to put forth the theory that the rapid melting of these very same caps today are not a bi product of "global warming" but rather evidence of the poles becoming active in preparation of yet another shift.
According to Mayan astrological mysticism this event occurs every 13,000 years or twice within the context of a Galactic Cycle lasting 26,200 years in duration.
In his book "The Mayan Factor" Jose Arguelles compares this Grand Cycle to a Galactic Marathon. The ice caps were argued to manifest around 10,000 BC but no later than 13,000 BC which would have been just at 13,000 years ago. My calculations have the actual event occurring in the year 11,086 BC. It was at this exact time that the age shifted from Aquarius to Leo and only because our position in relation to the black holed sun reversed its polarity. The procession then proceeded counter clockwise which is in direct opposition to our monthly calender today.
If the polarity were not reversing once more at the end of the year we would indeed be ushering the Age of Aquarius right now. However, since the polarity is reversing we will be trending into the opposite sign of which ever sign is in predominance at the time of the shift. Currently we are still in Pisces while trending into Aquarius at an equal rate to the reversal of our own polarity. This being said we are also being influenced by Virgo as well as Leo since its the opposite of Aquarius. There will come a moment soon that all four signs will have some influence before we in fact trend away from Aquarius and Leo and settle into the Age of Virgo for the next 2,183 years.
The physical manifestations of this incredible astrological event are already playing our in our internal structures. all of us were born with inherent attributes commonly accepted within our elemental star sign. As we slowly reverse polarity, we have began to take on the attributes of our polar opposite star sign. For example, if you were born a Sagittarius you would be slowly and subtly be taking on the viewpoint and elemental expression characteristics of a Gemini, Taurus to Scorpio, Virgo to Pisces, Capricorn to Cancer and so on and so forth. Additionally, due to the double affect produced by the shift in ages we would also be expanding our viewpoint further.
An even more startling discovery for you folks at home:
In my book I also explain that this is the exact reason why the astrological ages have been proceeding in a counter clockwise direction since that point. We are currently in the Age of Pisces which began around 170 BC and assumed total influence around the time of Jesus who ushered in the era of religion, spirituality and the God question which are in fact all Pisces characteristics.
Before that was the Age of Aries. The Arian Age ushered in Roman conquests and war of honor and outright supremacy which are inherent qualities of the War planet otherwise known as Mars. Taurus began in 4,480 BC and brought the Torah. The Age of Gemini before that, then Cancer, and finally Leo which came into existence after the last polar shift around 11,086 BC. Up to that point in the current Grand cycle the procession of the astrological ages were proceeding in a clockwise manor. The Age of Aquarius was the last of the clockwise ages leading up to the polar shift.
I will have a much more comprehensive explanation and correlating broad picture analysis of many small and seemingly unrelated parts of our progressive evolution such as corresponding feminine or masculine energies of predominance playing out in the matriarchal or patriarchal systems of social dominance as well as my explanation of Direct Current and Alternating Current Consciousness.
Stay tuned and thanks for considering seriously the information I have laid out before you this evening.
Best,
