friend, Boris Said
who invited me to Egypt on a extraordinary adventure along
with the well-known Egyptologist John Anthony West in 1991.
Age
of the Sphinx
An
astrological theory for the true age of the Sphinx
Current theory by Egyptologists believe that the
Sphinx was built in 2500 BC by Pharaoh Chephren, who is
identified with the Second Pyramid at Giza. He was the son
of Cheops who is the recognized builder of the Great
Pyramid. Recent geological testing suggested that the
vertical weathering on the side of the Sphinx was done by
torrential rains concluding that it was built at a time
when such rains were common in Giza. Traditional
Egyptologists are in agreement that such rains occurred and
stopped thousands of years before the time of Chephren. The
particular weathering on the Sphinx is also not on any of
the other monuments on the Giza plateau that were built
around 4,500 years ago. The Sphinx has the head of a man
and the body of a lion. The lion is the symbol for the
astrological sign of Leo. Nearly 13,000 years ago the star
that rose with the Sun on the day of the vernal equinox was
not Aries, but Regulus. Regulus is a star in the
constellation of Leo which was rising from about 10,800 BC
to 8,100 BC. This period is called the “Age of Leo.” Could
the Sphinx have been built to honor and placed directly
east facing the rising Leo constellation each morning
during the “Age of Leo” and not during the close of the
“Age of Taurus” which is the symbol of the bull as
traditionally accepted? To comprehend the ‘ages’ you need
to understand that it takes 25,800 years for the Earth’s
axis to complete one clockwise circle, like the motion of a
spinning top. This cycle of our planet is referred to as
the Platonic Year, named after Plato, or the precession of
the equinoxes or also the Great Year. The Platonic cycle
causes a slow backwards movement of the sun’s apparent
position in the zodiac when viewed on successive vernal
equinoxes. There are twelve constellations of the zodiac
that were studied by the Greek, Hindu, Persian, Egyptian,
Chaldean, Hebrew, and Chinese astronomers. The sun’s
apparent position moves a little bit west in a
constellation when observed on the same day each year, it
takes the equinox sun approximately 2,150 years to transit
one of the twelve constellations during its 25,800 year
journey around the zodiac. The Vatican informs us every
Christmas Eve, when it reads the Calens (calendar) from
Rome, that it was the sixth age or the Piscean Age when
Jesus, the fisherman, was born 2,000 years ago. Therefore,
the “Age of Leo” has been designated as the first age of
the our present Great Year of approximately 25,800 years.
We are now in the dawn of the new “Age of Aquarius.”
Aquarius marks the half way point of our current Great
Year, but definitely the half way point from the age of
Leo. When the moon is full each month it is in the
culmination of its 28 day cycle The half way point of any
planetary cycle has always been a time when the lesson is
being challenged or revealed. And so, our new age of
Aquarius is the culmination from the age of Leo when
secrets of that time that the Egyptians worshipped may come
to light. Edgar Cayce prophesied many times that the Sphinx
had been built in 10,500 BC and the survivors of Atlantis
had concealed beneath it a “Hall of Records” containing all
the wisdom of their lost civilization and the true history
of the human race. Cayce also prophesied that this Hall of
Records would be rediscovered and opened between 1996 and
1998. In 10,500 BC the alignment of the heavens clearly
lined up with the Giza Plateau, even the location of the
Hall of Records was in perfect alignment with the stars. It
is time astrologically speaking for the mysteries of
ancient Egypt to be revealed.
