Hopi’s Four Worlds – The end of the second World
The faithful emerge to the Second World (Tokpa), a changed landscape where they build homes and villages but remain separate from wild animals. They trade and barter, initially praising the Creator, but greed arises, leading to quarrels and wars. Sótuknang again saves the faithful with the Ant People and destroys the world by freezing it into ice after the guardian twins abandon their poles, causing the earth to spin off balance.
Past life regressions
The Legend of Starcrash
It has been said that sometimes in the past the moon walked a different path than she does now. That is one of the legends. In the old ones’ time, it is said that … (trying to remember) the path that the moon walked and the path that the sun walked were more harmonious than they are now, and the path of the stars too.
For at one time a certain number of the moon’s cycles always coincided with a certain number of the sun’s cycles. I was trying to remember the numbers that were told me. I am not good with numbers. Give me a moment. (Pause) Okay. It is said that there were 12 moon cycles for one year, exactly, all the time, every year. And the art of keeping track of the paths of the stars and sun and moon was not as intricate as it is now.
For every year when certain stars would arise, it would always be a certain portion of a particular number of moon cycles, from the solstice or the equinox, depending on how far you wanted to count it. And then one time something happened. There were bright lights in the sky and the Earth shook. It was a very terrible time. The crops did not grow that year. Many people were killed and it was during that time when most of our knowledge was lost.
The ones that survived knew they had to keep alive the knowledge that they still had, even though it was not nearly what our people once had. And it took many generations for the paths of the moon and stars and sun to settle down again. After two or three generations, the wise men observed the paths and tried to figure out what had happened. They realized that they were much more complex now.
The path of the moon and the path of the sun no longer coincided.
D: It was no longer exactly 12 moon cycles?
B: It was more like 13 and ¼ or something like that. I do not know, I am a hunter. Before the change occurred anyone could keep track of it. It was easy. The wise man and the elders knew the reasons behind it. Then when the change occurred so many were killed that very few knew the reasons behind it. They ended up dying, to where the wise man was left with very little knowledge to work with. And he tried to figure out what happened to the paths of the sun and moon.
D: Something definitely must have happened at that time. You said there were bright lights in the sky and the Earth shook. Do the legends say what else happened?
B: It is said that at one point the paths of the stars and the sun reversed temporarily, to where the sun was rising where it should set, and setting where it should rise. The legends do not say how long the sun was rising where it should set. But after the first time when the Earth shook and there were lights in the sky, the wise man thought the sun was rising where it should set and setting where it should rise. No one could keep track of time then, for all the movements of the stars and the path of the moon were backwards. How can you keep track of what time is passing? And thenit does not say how longbut after a period of time something else happened. The Earth shook some more and the sun once more began rising where it should and setting where it should, even today. But now the paths of the moon and the stars are no longer with the path of the sun. And it was very complex to keep track of it now.
D: I bet that was a frightening thing to see.
B: Yes. It is said it was very, very wondrous and terrible. D: How did the people die during that time?
B: With the Earth shaking and such, it was very stormy. They said the winds protested and were crying to the Mother Earth. And they were blowing so hard that they made trees fall down, so people were killed from things falling down and flying in the wind.
D: Before this happened, were the seasons different? The hot and the cold, were they different than they are now?
B: (Thinking) The length … they were slightly shorter than they are now and they always coincided with the cycles of the moon. The year seems to have lengthened after that happened, but not by much. To where as now the growing seasons still coincide with the cycles of the moon, but the exact seasons according to the solstices and the equinoxes do not coincide with the cycles of the moon. It is said that the weather was different. That the winter winds came from a different direction and summer was then a bit longer, but not too much different from now. The main difference was the direction of the winter winds that they had to adjust for.
D: Do you know what direction that was?
B: No. The legends say that it was warmer. It was not as cold. Life was easier, for the summers were warmer and the winters were not as harsh. There was not as much snow or rain. It was very difficult when the Earth walked a different path and the year became longer.
D: The days were different lengths?
B: The days were a little bit shorter but not by much. It was mainly the years that were shorter.
D: But, you said in midsummer the days are very long.
B: That is the way it is now.
D: It wasn’t like that in those times?
B: Not as much. The days were still very long in the midsummer but there would still be some darkness. And in the middle of the winter the nights would be very long, but there would still be some light during the day. It is more extreme now. It was not as cold and there was more rain than they have now; less snow than they have now.
D: I wonder what that light in the sky looked like?
B: Well, there are several descriptions and they seem contradictory. Some of the light was like the winter light, but very fantastic. In the colors that they come in: red, blue, green and white. And there was many of these to where you could even see them in the daytime. Normally they are there in the winter and you just see them at night. I thought he was probably talking about the northern lights or aurora borealis.
D: But during that time there were more?
B: Yes. And they were seen in the daytime as well, and now they are never seen in the daytime. It is usually at night. Also, there seemed to be a comet in the sky at the time, and it seemed to fly down to the Earth. But it is said that the wise man that translated this thinks they did not actually see it fly down to the Earth, but it seemed to be heading toward the Earth Mother. Then when the Earth started shaking and things went bad, the comet was no longer seen.
D: Do you think it might have hit the Earth?
B: The legends say it may have. But they look so small in the sky though. You know, you could cover all the parts with your hand and fingers depending on how far away they are.
D: Do you see many comets?
B: Not many. One or two. When you first see them they are very small, and you could cover them up with the joint of your little finger. Later on they seem to grow and get larger and cover more of the sky until they pass and get smaller. Then one night the sun sets and you do not see them anymore.
D: Do these happen in the winter or the summer?
B: The comets? Either, it does not matter. These comets appear when they appear. D: Do your legends say what a comet might be?
B: No. It is just a star that walks a swifter path.
D: That would be a good description. You told me there was one group of stars that the old ones were very interested in. Did that also change position in the sky during that time? (See Chapter 9. The old ones were interested in the Pleiades.
B: Well, all the stars shifted positions, not just those. The stars themselves stayed in the same position. It seemed like we had moved, or they had all moved together. Will you remember these things I have told you about?
D: Yes. I want to help so they won’t be lost. Have you caught very many animals? B: While I have been talking to you? No, not really. I was enjoying telling you about the winter nighttime lights. They are very beautiful. I have been following some deer though. I ought to be able to get some when we are through talking.
…
D. Are there any legends of large animals that may have disappeared?
B: There is one. I am not sure what it is called. I can describe it. It was said to be as big as a house. It had horns like oxen and large ears. And its nose could not be told apart from a tail. Long fur, lots of fur. I do not know what it could be. It sounded like something ferocious to hunt. I would not want to; it would be difficult. It would supply a lot of meat though. It was said to be very good to eat.
D: When did these disappear?
B: When the Earth changed its path.
From the higher consciousness:
Did he mean there was a shift in the axis? B: Yes. D: Do you know if this was before or after the time of the dinosaurs? B: This shift in the axis came just after the time of the dinosaurs. There was another shift earlier during the time of the dinosaurs. But this was already into the age of the mammals. D: I thought so, because he didn’t mention any dinosaurs. B: He did not know of any. D: Then there was a large shift. And this second one was during the time of the Old Ones. B: Right. It was not as major of a shift, but it was still traumatic. D: Then the first shift was the one that created the ice ages, or am I correct? B: All the shifts contributed to the ice ages. That first major shift mainly altered the climate flow to where many animals died suddenly and drastically of violent means. The second shift caused much of the planet to turn colder and thereby enter an ice age. D: Because it moved the poles. But where he lived, did it get colder? B: It was extremely cold. It was just that he took it for granted. Where he lived had basically been cold for a long time anyhow. And when it got slightly colder it just meant more ice, more snow. D: I was thinking of an ice age and glaciers. I don’t think he mentioned anything like that. B: No. D: Whenever the Old Ones crashed there, was the climate different than it was in Tuin’s time? B: Yes, it was. There was an axis shift during the intervening centuries. D: What was the climate like when they first crashed? B: It was subtropical, much like southern North America the area that you call the “deep south.” It was warm, humid, much greenery, many plants, many animals, very fertile. D: Then it became arctic after the shift.
A small group landed and lived there in Tuin’s area, because they had no choice. But they weren’t the only people coming to Earth. There’s a galactic civilization and since Earth was not at a very high technological level, they were not very careful about where they landed in the past. They knew the natives of Earth could not harm them, because they did not have the weapons. So this ship that landed with Tuin’s ancestors was not the only ship that ever visited the Earth. When that group landed they basically settled down where they were and just lived their lives in that isolated area.
Grok:
Alaska experienced subtropical conditions during two main geological periods based on paleontological and climatic evidence.
During the mid-Cretaceous period, approximately 100 million years ago, the North Slope region featured a warm, wet environment with annual rainfall up to 70 inches, similar to modern Miami. This supported lush vegetation, including large trees and wildflowers, alongside dinosaurs and birds, as indicated by fossils from the Nanushuk Formation.
Later, in the early Cenozoic era, particularly the Eocene epoch from about 56 to 34 million years ago, Alaska had a subtropical climate. Fossilized palm leaves near Yakutat and plant remains resembling modern subtropical and tropical flora confirm warm conditions, with palms requiring year-round water and sunshine. The warmest phase occurred around 55 to 50 million years ago, during events like the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum, allowing palm trees and crocodiles in high-latitude areas.
Key facts:
- One lunar cycle (synodic month, from new moon to new moon) lasts about 29.53 days.
- A common calendar year has 365.24 days (accounting for the average solar year).
- Calculation: 365.24 ÷ 29.53 ≈ 12.37 lunar cycles.
Younger Dryas onset
Source Grok
Younger Dryas onset ~10,900–9,700 BCE with possible comet impact ~10,800 BCE (12,800 years ago), leaving nanodiamonds and ash in Greenland ice cores.
The Younger Dryas was a rapid cooling event triggered by meltwater disrupting ocean currents, with the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis (YDIH) proposing comet fragments ~12,900 years ago (~10,900 BCE).
Nanodiamonds, iridium, and charcoal layers in ice cores (e.g., GISP2) support extraterrestrial impact and widespread wildfires.
YDIH evidence from 2007–2023 studies (e.g., Firestone et al., PNAS; Moore et al., Earth-Science Reviews). No consensus on exact cause, but impact markers are replicated in ~50 sites globally.
~9,650 BCE meltwater pulse
~9,650 BCE meltwater pulse (Meltwater Pulse 1A) raising seas ~20 meters (65.62 feet) (65 feet (19.81 meters)), flooding coasts like the Black Sea. Meltwater Pulse 1A occurred ~14,700–14,500 years ago (~12,700–12,500 BCE), raising seas 14–20 meters (65.62 feet).
Later pulses (~11,600–11,400 years ago, ~9,600–9,400 BCE) added ~10–15 meters (49.21 feet), contributing to Black Sea inundation (~7,600 BCE, but accelerated earlier).
Ancient stories
Greek Myth: The Myth and the 12-Moon Year
After Hades abducts Persephone, Demeter searches for her daughter and causes famine on Earth. Zeus brokers a compromise:
- Persephone spends one-third of the year (4 months) in the underworld with Hades.
- She spends two-thirds of the year (8 months) on Earth with Demeter.
In the earliest versions of the myth, the Greek year was conceived as a lunar year of exactly 12 months (12 synodic months ≈ 354 days). The “one-third” and “two-thirds” division therefore corresponds precisely to 4 lunar months underground and 8 lunar months above ground — making a perfect total of 12 moon cycles per year.
This 12-moon structure is explicit in the Homeric Hymn (lines 398–403 and 445–469) and reflects the old Attic lunar calendar before the later adoption of a 13th intercalary month.
Enuma Elish (Babylonian Creation Epic, c. 18th–12th century BCE)
This describes Marduk establishing an ideal schematic year of 12 × 30 = 360 days divided into 12 equal months.
After Marduk creates the cosmos, he organises time: “He founded the station of Nēberu [= Jupiter] to determine their bounds [= the year]; That none might err or go astray, He set the station of Enlil and Ea with it. …He made the year into 12 months of 30 days each.”
Epic of Atrahasis and Epic of Gilgamesh (Old Babylonian and Standard versions)
Before the flood, the world is described as following a simpler cosmic order.
Tablet XI of Gilgamesh (the flood story) uses round 360-day calculations when counting time during the flood and its aftermath, reflecting the old schematic calendar.
Myth of the “Added Month”
Babylonian priests knew the true lunar year is about 354 days and the solar year 365¼ days.
To keep festivals in season, they periodically inserted a 13th (intercalary) month.
Some late scholarly commentaries and omens describe the 13th month as something the gods “added later” to the original perfect 12-month year after the flood or after a cosmic disturbance.
Berelekh mammoth bone-bed
The Berelekh mammoth bone-bed on the Berelekh River in Yakutia (Sakha Republic), Arctic Siberia, Russia.
Key facts
- Over 9,000 mammoth bones from at least 156 woolly mammoths (dating ≈12,000–15,000 years ago) were found concentrated in a single 20-meter-long deposit.
- The remains are partially preserved in permafrost, with some near-intact elements like tusks and long bones; undigested grasses and sedges were identified in associated stomach contents from similar Siberian finds, confirming a grassland diet.
- The bones appear densely intermingled and “squeezed” due to rapid burial in a confined riverine deposit.
Direction of bone movement
- The bones were transported and accumulated by river currents from upstream sources.
- Paleontological analysis shows primary flow and deposition downstream (northeastward along the Berelekh River’s course), as evidenced by hydraulic sorting: lighter elements (e.g., ribs, vertebrae) concentrated at the deposit’s edges, while heavier skulls and femurs piled centrally.
- No evidence of in-place death; the site acted as a natural trap where floodwaters swept carcasses into a bend or eddy.
This explains the site’s exceptional density without a single catastrophic event. For comparison, isolated intact carcasses (e.g., Berezovka mammoth, 1901 find on the Berezovka River) share similar preservation but lack the mass bone accumulation.
