Download or read book Lunar myth and worship through the ages written by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky and published by Philaletheians UK. This book was released on 2017-08-16 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sun is the giver of life to the whole planetary system. The Moon is the giver of life to our globe. The Hindus proudly call themselves descendants of Solar and Lunar dynasties. The Christians pretend to regard such beliefs as idolatry, yet they adhere to a religion entirely based upon solar and lunar worship. Mystery 1. The lowest key to the androgynous Moon is anthropomorphic and phallic. The highest key is purely theogonic and divine. The Jewish god, with which the Christians have burdened themselves, is no higher than the lunar symbol of Nature’s reproductive or generative faculty. The entire Pantheon of lunar gods and goddesses consists of “sons” and “husbands” of their “mothers,” and is identical with the Christian Trinity. Mystery 2. The riddle of the Two Ones unriddled. The One Divine Essence, ever unmanifested, perpetually begets a second One, manifested and androgynous in its nature. The latter brings forth immaculately everything macro- and micro-cosmical in the universe. But human procreation in the infernal regions of matter is far from divine, it is a deadly sin. Deus Lunus, a male lunar deity, became overtly androgyne in the Lemurian Race of our Round when sexes separated. Later on, its dual hermaphrodite power was exploited by Atlantean sorcerers. Still, in the present Aryan Race, the same lunar-solar worship continues, dividing nations into two distinct and essentially antagonistic factions and cults. Pagan and Papal cosmogonies are diametrically opposed. The one is an ever-youthful Mother-Nature, antitype of Sun and Moon, creating immaculately the ideal universe; the other, by concocting an infernal “Virgin Mary” who brings forth a “son” of the earth earthy, degrades everything divine and sacred to the lowest anthropomorphic goddess of the rabble. The “virgin” goddess of the Latin Church is a faithful copy of the old pagan goddesses, albeit counterfeit; the twelve apostles stand for the twelve tribes, the latter being personifications of the twelve great gods and the twelve signs of the Zodiac. The liberal adoption by the Latin Church of such symbols as water, fire, sun, moon, and stars, and a good many other things, is a continuation of the old worship of Pagan nations under different names. The belief that Fire finds refuge in Water was not limited to the old Scandinavians. It was shared by all nations before taken up by the early Christians, who symbolized the Holy Ghost under the shape of Fire, the breath of the Father-Sun, descending into the Water or Sea, Mother, Mare, Mary, etc.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a collection of moon lore: myths and folklore from all lands. The first part is mythological and mirthsome. It is the original nucleus around which the other parts have gathered. Some years since, the writer was led to investigate the world-wide myth of the Man in the Moon, in its legendary and ludicrous aspects; and one study being a stepping-stone to another, the ball was enlarged as it rolled. The second part, dealing with moon-worship, is designed to show that anthropomorphism and sexuality have been the principal factors in that idolatry which in all ages has paid homage to the hosts of heaven, as heaved above the aspiring worshipper. Man adores what he regards as higher than he. And if the moon is supposed to affect his tides, that body becomes his water-god.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Queen of the Night helps readers understand the role and power of the moon in the ancient religions, folklore, and mythology of Ireland and the British isles and then discover how to tap that power in their daily lives. Queen of the Night is a journey into the world of Celtic cosmology, shamanism, and sacred animals, as well as Celtic language, art, and culture, to discover the power and centrality of the moon. Since the earliest times, from stone circles and passage graves to the rites and customs of Druids, the moon has been the symbol of the Goddess and has played a crucial role in worship and celebration. In 13 chapters representing the moon's monthly and annual cycles, NicMhacha tells the story of Celtic moon mythology, as well as touching upon Greek, Hindu, and Norse traditions. Each chapter sets forth the role of the moon in Celtic tradition and culture and includes poetry, quotes, or prayers honoring the moon. At the end of each chapter, she offers meditations, ceremonies, and exercises to help readers connect with the moon and apply its power to their lives. From the world of fairies to bards, seekers, and shamans; from the moon's role in the secret meetings of women spinners to the role of sacred animals and mythic beings, Queen of the Night is a lively, informative, and transformative book for anyone who wants to understand and experience the power of the moon.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sun Lore of All Ages: A Collection of Myths and Legends Concerning the Sun and Its Worship All Ages, a wealth of interesting material pertaining to the mythology and folk-lore of the sun and moon was discovered, which seemed worth collating in a separate volume. Further research in the field of the solar myth revealed sufficient matter to warrant the publica tion of a volume devoted solely to the legends, traditions, and superstitions that all ages and nations have woven about the sun, especially in View of the fact that, to the author's knowledge, no such publication has yet appeared. The literature of the subject is teeming with interest, linked as it is with the life-story of man kind from the cradle of the race to the present day, for the solar myth lies at the very foundation of all mythology, and as such must forever claim pre eminence.
