Although the following is a good piece of research, do not believe for a minute that Planet X will pass in 2012 like the author is suggesting in his work. PX could pass years sooner than that date. In fact excellent disinformation can give 99% truth only to pass on one lie like the date of passage. This would placate the public into believing that they've got more time than they do to prepare.-mh* In spring of 1993, *Caroline* and *Eugene Shoemaker*, an astronomer couple, and *David Levy*, an English Literature specialist and a famous "comet hunter", had spotted a previously unknown comet. The discovery was confirmed in March 1993 as "Comet SL9". Just 16 months later, the whole scientific world was watching this newly discovered comet's collision with Jupiter in more than 20 chunks. What if the breath-taking impact had occurred not with Jupiter but the Earth, instead? We could only be aware of such possibility, about one and a half years before the horrible event that could wipe the humanity off this planet's surface. On the last week of March 2004, *William Bradfield* spotted the "Comet C/2004 F4" (Bradfield.) Just three weeks after the official discovery, this new celestial object reached its perihelion on 17th of April. And although it was about 0.75 AU away from earth, /*Comet Bradfield*/ was very bright and impressive. (Just look at the SOHO picture below.) What if it had a "much closer" passage to Earth, not to mention a dramatic impact? We could only be aware of it, just weeks before the event. (Curiously, the orbital period of Comet Bradfield was calculated as 3666 years by NASA - very near to the 3661 years which I suggested for Marduk's orbital period. Can anyone still insist that no object with such a long orbital path could come THAT near to the Sun?) This is neither "yet another doomsayer mumbo jumbo" nor anything like some people would sarcastically like to call "fear mongering pseudo-science" in any way. I do not subscribe to any kind of mystical and baseless doomsday scenarios. What I am trying to say is, comets, asteroids (or any celestial object) can appear in front of us anytime with a little or no warning at all. Just remember a very fresh scientific research paper, which attracted the news media in last December: "Professor *Chandra Wickramasinghe*, Honorary Professor *Bill Napier* and research student *Janaki Wickramasinghe* of Cardiff University?s Centre for Astrobiology believe that some comets are not visible using current astronomical scanning equipment. They argue that if this is the case, international programmes designed to detect near-Earth asteroids, and ways to reduce the worst effects of them colliding with Earth may need to be urgently reviewed." (1) We know Mr. Napier very well especially for his stunning work with another scientist *Victor Clube*, published by Universe Pub in 1982, named "/*The Cosmic Serpent*/". Napier and Clube tried to direct our attention to the outer space and suggested a new approach to a serious risk which was being underestimated by the scientific world: "According to astronomers such as Dr. Victor Clube, of Oxford University's Department of Astrophysics, the coming and goings of the Taurid stream should be a source of concern to politicians, planners and anyone who cherishes life on Earth. A 'catastrophist', Dr. Clube is one of many astronomers who are convinced that within this celestial procession lie the seeds of mass destruction an Armageddon of biblical proportions. 'The matter requires urgent attention. It is crucial that everyone is woken up to the danger,' Dr. Clube says." What exactly does it mean for us? First, the very popular skeptical motto which says "If Planet X existed even the amateur astronomers should have spotted it by now" becomes definitely irrelevant. They even cannot spot a large and bright comet before it approaches its perihelion, like we saw in Comet Bradfield example. Besides, there may be (and there definitely are) several kinds of celestial entities which could not have been spotted yet, with a bunch of understandable reasons for their "invisible" states. As Dr Napier and Dr Wickramasinghe reminds us, we are not familiar with all kinds of celestial objects in heavens and contrary to popular belief, the discovery of our solar system is not thoroughly completed. These scientists have just put a new enigma on the table: /*The Dark Comets*/ which are very hard to spot; emitting or reflecting no light and almost invisible. "The Dark Comets" are not the only kind of celestial objects which are very hard to spot: The dead stars, who have not enough nuclear fuel to generate heat and start a consistent nuclear fusion of hydrogen to be bright as a star, called "/*the brown dwarfs*/" are also not easy to spot. The existence of brown dwarfs was only a theoretical conception until some instances began to be spotted in mid-nineties. The first clear evidence of a brown dwarf was detected in November 1995 when astronomers spotted the object called "Gliese 229B", a small companion to cool red star Gliese 229. Since then, several of them have been found in deep space but mostly, just by "chance". Because, the brown dwarfs do not emit light and appear as hundreds of thousands times dimmer than our Sun and these celestial objects are the faintest ones, orbiting another star. They are about 15 to 50 times the mass of Jupiter but in size they can be way "smaller" than it. Brown dwarfs are among the "mysterious entities" of cosmos with still dozens of puzzles unsolved and some dimmer instances of them can only be detected by high-tech infrared scanners in orbit. Now, I want to recall a short passage from my book "/*2012: Rendez-vous With Marduk*/", which was a brief appendix at the end of the main text, titled "/*Nibiru and the Jaguar Cult*/". (Just an informative note to the readers who has not read the book yet: While analyzing the Meso-American history and creeds, I mentioned of a "dualistic" system which included two seperate cults in the region: The "/*Feathered Serpent*/" cult and the "/*Jaguar Cult*/". The essential deities were *Kukulcan* (Quetzalcoatl in Aztec/Toltec lore) and *Hunrakan* (Tezcatlipoca in Aztec/Toltec lore) respectively but while the celestial counterpart of the first one was obviously the planet Venus, the latter's symbol in heavens was surprisingly vague. All evidence suggested that this dualistic structure had been eventually developed by the close encounters of the two seperate cults and each deity (and their celestial counterparts) were equally important for ancient Meso-Americans. In some mythical fragments and traditions, scholars found the significance of the number 7 and met the concept of "Seven Macaw" (Seven Sages) so they supported the idea that Hunrakan/Tezcatlipoca's celestial symbol was either The Pleiades or the Great Dipper - both had seven bright stars. In contrary, I suggested in my book that the sacred number 7 of Hunrakan had little to do with the number of stars in a certain constellation but it was rather used to reflect something, in a more "astronomical and mathematical" manner. If Hunrakan appeared to be the "rival" of Kukulcan, and if the myths were talking about a "confrontation" between two deities, the "celestial Hunrakan" should have definitely been a "planet-like" object orbiting the Sun, in same category with Venus - not a constellation or a bright star cluster. So I suggested that it was nothing but /*Nibiru/Marduk*/, the celestial object that almost all ancient cultures mentioned of, that symbolized Hunrakan in heavens. They had met with Kukulcan in heavens when Hunrakan had come in from the deep and far land of darkness; a celestial battle happened between two deities (a confrontation of planets on their orbital paths), at first Kukulcan lost the battle and was sent to exile (in a new and different orbit) and later, Hunrakan disappeared in deep space again while Kukulcan was shining in the morning sky, described by ancients as "/*Birth Of Venus*/", the event which was considered as the beginning of the "/*Fifth Sun*/" of Mayan Calendar. The significance of number 7 was related to the orbital period of Hunrakan (Nibiru/Marduk) for which I suggested 3661 earthly years. Now: *3661* is exactly the one seventh of *25,627* years, the total time span of 5 Mayan "world ages". In other words, seven orbital periods of Hunrakan (Marduk) equals to five Mayan ages. Besides, 3661 is a very special number: /*It can only be divided by number seven*/! Now, after this brief information, we can get back to the beginning: Why Hunrakan (Marduk) was named "Jaguar" in ancient Meso-America?) Let's see the "Appendix 2" of my book now: *Nibiru and the Jaguar Cult* We have dealt with the Meso-American creation and universal order myths in details throughout the book. One point had a very special function on our thesis: The confrontation and encounters between the Venus Cult which had declared itself with the epithet "Feathered Serpent" and the Nibiru/Marduk lore which was named and known as "The Jaguar Cult". On the coalition of these Meso-American cults whose ultimate product had eventually been the Mayan Calendar, I stated that the enigmatic deity Tezcatlipoca/Hunrakan had been the rival of the Quetzalcoatl/Kukulcan figure to complete the dualistic system, and his celestial counterpart was Nibiru. Perhaps, at this point, it would be useful to return to Mesopotamia and land of Sumer to add some colors to the whole picture. And maybe the name given to the Tenth Planet by Mesopotamians, who even mentioned its existence in their literary texts, could be an interesting base for the connection we established with Jaguar. Though it was called Marduk in Babylon, we know that in almost all sacred texts and creation myths, the "title" of the Tenth Planet was NI.BI.RU. This title, which can be translated as "/*The One Who Crosses The Middle*/" or "/*The One Who Seized The Middle*/", was interpreted by Zecharia Sichin and a number of other scholars as "The Planet Of Crossing". Now, the question is: Could we find another instance of a "parallel usage of meanings" in NI.BI.RU's name, a method which was often practised in Ancient Neareastern cultures? The word basically consisted of two parts in Ancient Sumerian language: NIB and RU. The first syllable NIB was also a combination of two other small syllables: NI + IB. "NI" meant "fear and respect" while "IB" meant "to get angry". In John Halloran's Sumerian Lexicon, these two syllables come together as "NI + IB = NIB" to define a specific animal: Leopard! The second syllable, "RU" has a meaning like "tossing with forehead". In this case, there appears another interpretation for the name NI.BI.RU, along with "Planet Of Crossing" or "Crossing In The Middle": It's "Leopard Who Tosses With Its Forehead". As we already had seen, it was "Jaguar" in Meso-America; and it was "Leopard" in a land thousands of miles away. Back in St. John's Revelation, "The Beast Number 666" was described as "having a body of a leopard". Could this intriguing similarity which I believe should seriously be taken into account, point out something about the appearance of the Tenth Planet, when it was approaching to the Earth? *The "brown dwarf" as Jaguar* Now again, we are going back to the brown dwarves and their interesting aspects. Brown dwarves are among the dimmest objects in space, usually in a pale reddish color with a lot of "dark spots" on their surfaces. As a Caltech expert stated: "The M and L dwarfs are red, while the T dwarf is dimly magenta, due to lack of light -- actually absorptions by sodium and potassium atoms -- in the green portion of the spectrum". If you look at the picture below which shows the sun, various brown dwarves and the planet Jupiter, rendered by Dr. Robert Hurt of the Infrared Processing and Analysis Center in Caltech , you should easily realize why the ancients called Nibiru/Marduk as Jaguar in Meso-America and Leopard in Mesopotamia. It really looks like the skin of a leopard or a jaguar! According to my opinion, the entity called "Planet X" by various researchers is very likely to be a planet-sized brown dwarf or a similar, "brown dwarf like" object, with probably some Mars-sized satellites orbiting it. Latest findings suggest that small brown dwarves can be the central construction points of some sophisticated "mini solar systems". Look at this very fresh news report from the *New Scientist*: "The construction site of a miniature solar system has been spotted but, unusually, its central star is a tiny brown dwarf. The star is so small it could be mistaken for a giant planet and it is surrounded by a disc of material chunky enough to form several planets the size of Earth or Mars. The discovery calls for a rethink of how diverse planetary systems can be, says Kevin Luhman of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts, US. 'We always just think of planets forming around stars about the mass of our Sun,' he says. 'But they could form in more exotic situations around very small brown dwarfs - there might be mini solar systems out there.' " How would such a "miniature solar system" appear in sky, with a "jaguar skinned" faint body in the middle and some bright, planetary bodies at his left and right, orbiting the main thing. If we witnessed such a view in the sky, would we mention of it as "looking like a winged disc crossing the heavens"? A very common misconception among Planet X researchers is thinking of our solar system as a 2-D plane, such as the Ecliptic. So, most of them approach the question as simple as a planetary body which would approach the inner solar system following the path from Kuiper Belt to a point between Jupiter and Mars. So, much of Planet X enthusiasts has been drawing their attentions toward Pluto and waiting a "red planet" to appear. They think "If we have not spotted it yet, then this means it's still somewhere beyond Pluto, therefore it cannot be the triggering factor of recent catastrophic events while it floats such far away." According to my opinion, this is totally wrong. There is no logic in thinking of our solar system such a 2D plane like the Ecliptic. This thing will not come from the direction of Pluto: It's approaching us from the very "south" of our solar system - from the deep space "beneath" the Sun, like ancients had called it "The Bottomless Pit" or "Underworld". It's accelerating continuously while approaching up towards the Sun and it should have had an orbital plane which probably makes an angle around 75-85 degrees with the Ecliptic plain. This is why ancients described it as "rising from the depth, directly up in the heavens". The sky charts of the ancients were depicted as looking southern skies. The left of the chart was the East and the right side was the West. The structure of these charts were very simple: A horizontal line was drawn in the middle to represent the horizon and a vertical line was placed to cross it, representing the "Middle Of The Heavens". Using the cross point of these long lines (which formed a very large "+" sign) as center, they used to draw a circle, and each quarter of this circle was divided into three equal parts of 30 degrees to form the "celestial houses" on which they depicted the positions of the planets. You should be familiar with these charts because they are the ones that are being used by astrologists' horoscope drawings. In fact, astrology had had little to do with "fortune telling" or "prophecy" in ancient times: It was their scientific discipline which helped them to calculate the exact positions of celestial bodies, the eclipses and other significant events - it was definitely their "astronomy". Why looking southern skies, when one of the most significant points on heavens, The "Fixed" Polar Star was in Northern skies? Why dividing the sky with a vertical line and naming it the "Middle of the Heavens" and paying so much attention to this? The answer maybe found on ancient astronomical texts, describing a significant event: "Marduk is /*Umunpauddu*/ at its appearance; when it has risen for two (or four?) hours it becomes /*Sagmigar*/; when it stands in the meridian it becomes /*Nibiru*/". (R. Campbell Thompson, "The Reports of the Magicians and Astrologers of Nineveh and Babylon,") This piece of text is from a relatively late period, and mentions of Assyrian priests' prophecies. It describes a celestial path for Marduk in heavens with various stations, some of them named as "Umunpauddu" or "Sagmigar". Curiously, our modern scholars interpret both of these names as "Jupiter". The obvious reason for this is they believe Marduk was a divine name for the planet Jupiter. So according to these scholars, the text above describes the celestial movement of Jupiter; and according to them, Marduk, Umunpauddu and Sagmigar were all Jupiter's names. Besides, these scholars would like us to accept that Nibiru was also Jupiter's epithet. Now, let's read again this text but this time replacing all these names with Jupiter only to realize how nonsense it is: "Jupiter is Jupiter at its appearance; when it has risen for two hours it becomes Jupiter; when it stands in the meridian it becomes Jupiter". Let's get real: Marduk is definitely not Jupiter; and it is ridiculous to insist that both Umunpauddu and Sagmigar was also Jupiter. If this nonsense assumption were right, what could that text try to tell us? Because mainstream scientists are keen to believe that Marduk was Jupiter, they tend to interpret "Umunpauddu" and "Sagmigar" as the "phases" of Jupiter according to ancient Assyrians. First, let's correct the main essential misconception: Jupiter was the God *Enlil*'s (The Lord Of Winds) celestial symbol and on many "Gods List" tablets Enlil's sacred number was 50, which had put him on the first rank (just after the almighty sky god An). God *Enki*'s (Lord Of Earth) sacred number was 40 and he was just below his brother Enlil. Moon God *Nannar* was "The God 30", Sun God *Utu* (or Uddu) was "20" and finally *Marduk*, Enki's first-born son was "10". However, at the end of the Mesopotamian Creation Myth "/*Enuma Elish*/", a final passage announces Marduk as the chief deity, seizing Enlil's power, by listing "/*50 sacred names of Marduk*/". These names were presented as two seperate groups: The first group of 10 names, were Marduk's own titles (because he was "The God Of 10) and the second group of 40 names were associating his father Enki's titles, rank and sacred number to Marduk. So, the equation Marduk (10) + Enki (40) = Enlil (50) declares Marduk as the patron deity, taking the throne of Enlil along with his title and of course, the planet he was associated with (Jupiter). After this rearrangement, Jupiter substituted Marduk's real heavenly symbol, because his "own planet" was out of sight for so long. In other words, Jupiter was only a substitution for Marduk's planet, underlining the fact that Enlil's (the deity of Jupiter) throne was now his. As for the names "Umunpaddu" and "Sagmigar": In Sumerian language, "Umun" is a title of respect, synonymous with "En" (The Lord). But it also means "swamp". The word "pa.uddu" is "Utu's Brother". So "Umun.pa.uddu" means "The Swamp of Utu's Brother" which has nothing to do with "phases" of a planet but is a direct indicator of a position. "The Swamp" was a very archaic word in Sumerian, often used to name the "oldest city on the earth" which was Eridu, God Enki's sacred city very near to Persian Gulf. Ancient legends tell us that "there was no city but swamp everywhere, and the Eridu was built there by Enki." "Sag" is "good fortune" and "divine favour" in ancient Sumerian. And "Mi" is "ideal norm, divine decree, the phenomenal area of a deity's power". Finally, "gar" means "appearance". As it is very obvious, like "Umunpaddu", "Sagmiggar" is a title to indicate a "station" too: "The Appearance In The Area of Divine Favour". What should we understand from all these? If you accept the "Umunpaddu", "Sagmigar" and "Nibiru" as celestial stations, this statement tells us how Marduk appears and rises in southern skies: First, the ancients tell us that it appears on southern horizon, the "Umunpauddu" station, just above the "swamp". (For a stargazer who looked south in ancient city Eridu, the first and lowest alignment point was the swamps of Perisan Gulf.) Then, they continue, it begins to rise up and after passing "two houses" (not "two hours" as our scholars suggested - "houses" are the 30 degree slices of the sky; so it rises about 60 degrees up) it arrives the "Sagmigar" station which is the "phenomenal area of deity's power". Finally, it continues to rise up to arrive the peak point, The Meridian position in the middle of the heavens which is nothing but the "Nibiru" station". Writer and researcher *Andrew Collins*, presents us a brilliant analyze for the alignments of the temples in some ancient cities like Eridu and Nevali Cori, in his remarkable work "/*Gods Of Eden*/". He draws our attention to constellation "/*Eridanus*/" of the southern skies which he associates with the ancient city "Eridu" and suggests a very plausible relationship between Eridanus (a mythological sea monster) and "Tiamat" of Mesopotamian creation epic "/*Enuma Elish*/". In this ancient myth, *Marduk* who comes from far, attacks the dragon *Tiamat* and "forces his way through the midst of it": ...the star, which shineth in the heavens. May he hold the Beginning and the Future, may they pay homage unto him, Saying, "He who forced his way through the midst of Tiamat without resting, Let his name be Nibiru, 'the Seizer of the Midst'! For the stars of heaven he upheld the paths, He shepherded all the gods like sheep! He conquered Tiamat, he troubled and ended her life" ("Enuma Elish" - "Seven Tablets Of Creation", translated by Leonard W. King) Most scholars, including *Zecharia Sitchin*, thought about this creation epic as an ancient form of "Big Bang theory" on how the planets and their orbits were created. I suggest in contrary, the passages dealing with Marduk and Tiamat in "Enuma Elish" just describe us a "celestial movement" and its "stations", just like the previous ancient text. "Tiamat" is the constellation Eridanus of southern skies and Marduk follows a path that passes through it, rising up to the middle of the heavens, just to become "Nibiru: The Seizer of the Midst". Marduk, Nibiru or an unusual, sophisticated "celestial system" is probably getting closer to our Sun, in the direction of southern celestial pole, well below the Ecliptic plane. No need to look for a "red planet" in distant places beyond Pluto. It already began effecting our Sun since the early 2000's: The supposedly 11-years sunspot cycles are disturbed, some previously unknown source is bombarding the southern hemisphere with mysterious energy surges, the earth's magnetic power is in decline and the climate patterns are being radically changed. I believe, Marduk as ancients call it or "the unknown celestial system" will appear soon (probably just before the year 2010) in southern skies. This is why super powers of the global finance-capital oligarchy feel very uncomfortable and have been running a very aggressive strategy to keep the power in their hands since late 2001. Their time is running up and all their ambition is to control the world with all the energy sources before the chaotic days arrive. *Home · Timing · Interviews · E-Groups · News Release · Articles · PX-Store © 2005 · Planet X InBound.Com*
